Givati soldier and Palestinian kid doing high five, unfortunatelly you will not see pictures like that very often in occupied Palestine. Most of the times israeli soldiers are really harsh for Palestinians, even for kids. Most of the times they check their IDs for a long time even if there is no need to do so. Very often they check school bags and everything what you have with you... just to make life harder. Official reason - security measures.
Place: Checkpoint 56 (Shuhada St. entrance), Hebron, Palestine.
On 22nd Sep. 2013, heavy clashes took place across Hebron (clashes started on 20th Sep. and lasted seven days), leading to the injury and arrest of numerous Palestinians as well as the death of an Israeli soldier. As part of Sukkot celebrations, the street outside checkpoint 56 leading to Yatta was closed by Israeli military and border police. The army announced by military order that all shops on the street would have be closed and cars would have to be moved between 11am and 3pm, to ensure safe passage for settlers and Jewish visitors for a pilgrimage to the cave of Otniel ben Knaz, located on said road (what was clear provocation). Crowds of Palestinians, internationals and journalists gathered to witness and protest against this breaking of the Hebron agreement, signed in 1997 between the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli government and dividing the city into zones H1 and H2 under PA and Israeli military control respectively. The road to Yatta falls under Palestinian Authority control and is therefore illegal for Israelis to access. The clashes in Bab Al-Zawiyeh began around 11.30 am when Palestinian youths began to throw stones at the invading Israeli army and border police. The occupation forces responded with tear gas canisters, stunt grenades and plastic-coated steel bullets. Live ammunition was eventually used against resisting protestors and there are reports of several Palestinian men being treated for gunshot wounds.

Cito a memoria una frase di G. Tomasi principe di Lampedusa: ponete un problema di qualunque natura (politico, sociale, culturale, tecnico o altro) e datelo da risolvere a due italiani: uno milanese e l'altro siciliano. Dopo un giorno, il siciliano avrà dieci idee per risolvere questo problema, il milanese nemmeno una. Dopo due giorni, il siciliano avrà cento idee per risolvere questo problema, il milanese nessuna. Dopo tre giorni, il siciliano avrà mille idee per risolvere questo problema, e il milanese lo avrà già risolto.
Ecco, credo che questa sia l'ideale per parlare dei miei conterranei. Si, proprio dei siciliani, non della Sicilia.
Ora vi ripropongo un dialogo, svoltosi a ora di pranzo tra mia madre e me:
m: sai che hanno arrestato dei tombaroli a Contessa Entellina?
L: nooooooo?!?! Davvero?!?!
m: si!!!
per qualche secondo penso e le chiedo di dirmi bene la NOTIZIONA
m: è arrivata una telefonata ai carabinieri di Contessa e li hanno beccati mentre scavavano...
L: O_O?????
ancora, penso...e le pongo la domandona:
L: ma questi tombaroli di dove erano?
m: Paternò!
L: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! ORA CAPISCO!
A Contessa Entellina è un importante sito archeologico, Entella, posto proprio sulla Rocca d'Entella.
Lì ho il piacere di scavare dal 2001, l'argomento della mia tesi di laurea riguardava delle iscrizioni in lingua greca su laminette di bronzo scavate CLANDESTINAMENTE a Entella ed esportate, conservate tra l'università di Harvard e l'Inghilterra...Queste iscrizioni gettano luce su alcuni importanti vicende storiche della Sicilia, teatro degli scontri tra i Greci e i Cartaginesi, in un periodo a cavallo della prima guerra punica (III sec. a.C.).
Bene, il sito è distrutto dagli interventi clandestini da almeno 20/30 anni, mai nessuno è intervenuto, mai è stata fatta una telefonata dai LOCALI contro questi scavatori folli.
Premesso che si tratta di un sito posto in un luogo impervio da raggiungere: o a piedi (ma con gli attrezzi da lavoro -pale, picconi, metaldetector- e gli eventuali reperti non si può né salire né scendere) o in jeep...le strade sono due, diciamo una è pubblica, l'altra è privata (e munita di cancello!).
La "nazionalità" di questi scavatori sembra essere corleonese...quindi, "quelli" di Paternò non DEVONO né POSSONO scavare...
Ecco, questa è la "signora" MAFIA, quella di cui nessuno parla, quella che distrugge la Sicilia, non quella dei politici, ma quella che da lavoro in modo illecito, quella che si arricchisce alle spalle dei CITTADINI ONESTI!
Quale migliore immagine per parlare ancora della mafia di una foto in cui ci si sbeffeggia della morte, scattata durante uno scavo archeologico?

Metal detectorists out exploring Portobello Beach on a bright (but damned cold!) day. And yes, the title is, of course, a homage to Calvin and Hobbes...
As they said in Calin and Hobbes, "there's treasure everywhere!" Metal detectorist on the beach at Musselburgh near the harbour. No sign of buried pirate treasure yet though.

Some people prefer to be by themselves, happy in their own company, in their own world.
And notice, you see them more, music or phone on the ears.
I am fortunate that Paul and I can be 'alone'---->'together'.
End up in a photogenic place, each do our own thing, to get together and share our experience or the silence.
Have a great day and thank you for viewing, M, (*_*)

Manly beach at sunrise may be full of early risers getting in a swim before work or the hot day kicks in but it is also easy to find a lot of empty space where landscaped and peace prevail.

Storm Eleanor battered the South Coast but this guy was determined to search the beach for anything he could find washed up by the churning turmoil in the Solent.
He must be dedicated.

Made some time to spend a few hours with my metal detector. Came up with some interesting findings like a wedge for spitting logs, various coins, some worth more than their face value like several dimes from the 1940's, silver spoon, part of a toy gun, Dairy Queen token and a 5cent tax token from the 40's.
Fog was the word of the day for an early morning shoot with four friends. Lots of pictures and loads of laughs.
Israeli soldiers will not miss any opportunity to make Palestinian life harder. On this photo you can see Givati soldier checking little boys' school bags. Some soldiers order them to do it again when they go to the nearest shop to buy sweets or something to drink and cross checkpoint two times in few minutes. Official reason - security measures.

Despite weird looks from my neighbors, I finally metal-detected my front yard. The Matchbox car was the big find, but also two dimes and a 1944 wheat penny.
I wonder if they found anything interesting! :) I usually crop my pictures a fair bit but with the tide being out you can see the iron men in the far distance. It gives an idea of the scale of the beach and the 100 iron men scattered along it.
Photograph taken in the magic of The Golden Hour around sunset at 19:37pm on Wednesday August 30th 2011 off the 229 Siletz Highway and 20 Corvallis Newport Highway,intersecting with the 101 Oregon Coast Highway, beside the Nye Beach Turnaround on the golden sands of Newport beach, Newport, Oregon, USA.
I stayed here at a seafront motel with the sound of the roaring pacific to greet me in the morning. Absolutely wonderful to experience the power and beauty of Mother nature in a fabulously old worldly, charming setting.

A few weeks ago I was asked to do some waterproof testing on a new product about to be released, Minelabâs new coin and relic metal detector called Manticore.
The brief was simple, stay down at depth for an âextendedâ amount of time and work the detector hard. Twist it, flex it, shove it hard into the sand and generally use it with the enthusiasm of a âdetectoristâ. So a grabbed my work colleague Saxon and we took Manticore on a treasure hunting dive adventure.
Many beach goers will be familiar with detectorists as they comb the sand searching for coins, rings, watches and other jewellery that may have become estranged from their owners. Often you will see them in the beach surf where itâs almost a lost cause trying to find anything you may have lost.
Manticore is a detector that can leave the surf behind and go scuba diving giving access to sites of a more archaeological significance such wrecks and long abandoned marine structures. In other parts of the world rivers and lakes hide relics of old civil and national conflict. Even though South Australia is not known for historic conflict or pirates with treasure, any detecorist will tell you, âyou never now what you might findâ.
Though Manticore performed flawlessly we didnât find any buried treasure, just lost fishing tackle, but weâll be back and next time it will be for the gold!

the chef@isimmer's son got a metal detector for xmas. this is his 3rd day of treasure hunting. i had a few hours in the city and texted to let her know it wasn't raining and might be a good time to bring the detector....he's been wanting to try it at the beach.
we have been reading about being good treasure hunting citizens. we should blend in with the area. if in an upscale neighborhood wear jogging clothes. all other neighborhoods wear camouflage. we're "all other neighborhoods"...
camouflage - check
camouflage for dogs - check
starbucks lattes for adults - check
garden trowel - check
items found? a nickle, a bit of a blue bottle, pull ring from an aluminum can, foil paper, set of keys...technically the keys weren't found with the detector...i just picked them up from the sand but they went into the treasure bag anyway.
it was gale force winds out there. i'm still chewing on sand. the dogs were barking at the wind.
but we're going to keep trying.
