Most people (anyway, most consumers of media in the west) have seen this place before. A lot. During the week you can practically assume you'll see some kind of filming or photography happening here.
And why not? It's a weird, beautiful, fantastic place. It's easy for film crews and average people to access. As a Los Angeles County Park, it's free to visit (you'll need to buy a permit for major filming though). People come here to hike, picnic, and climb the rocks (as the pair in this picture have done, even though lightning is crashing bumptiously from the sky not far to the east.) The park itself is much more than just this particular set of rocks, but these are the most iconic ones. The park comprises almost 1,000 acres of this freakish, alien, haphazard terrain created by sandstone strata tossed about willy-nilly by the ever fascinating San Andreas Fault.
And so, given that photographing and filming this place is almost a cliche, why do I keep coming back here to shoot? Maybe because the landscape of Vasquez Rocks is ingrained in my being. I came of age yearning to be roaming in landscapes like this when instead I was trapped in classrooms not that far away. When I was able, weekends and after school, I did roam in a landscape much like this, either hiking or riding horseback, dreaming of different ways I could conspire to be someone else. Someone not me. Vasquez Rocks is like that place I came of age in, only moreso. More of everything. Bolder, vaster, bigger, stranger: In a word, it's even more landscapey.
Occasionally, when I close my eyes, I see this place without meaning to--without even desiring to. I drive by here every evening and when I think the light is just right, I stop and shoot. It doesn't matter to me how many times this place has "been done." I'll keep coming back with a camera as long as there is sweet light and as long as I remain happy to be me.

Turbio fondeadero donde van a recalar,
barcos que en el muelle para siempre han de quedar...
Sombras que se alargan en la noche del dolor;
náufragos del mundo que han perdido el corazón...
Puentes y cordajes donde el viento viene a aullar,
barcos carboneros que jamás han de zarpar...
Torvo cementerio de las naves que al morir,
sueñan sin embargo que hacia el mar han de partir...
Amarrado al recuerdo
yo sigo esperando...
¡Niebla del Riachuelo!...
De ese amor, para siempre,
me vas alejando...
Nunca más volvió,
nunca más la vi,
nunca más su voz nombró mi nombre junto a mí...
esa misma voz que dijo: "¡Adiós!".
Sueña, marinero, con tu viejo bergantín,
bebe tus nostalgias en el sordo cafetín...
Llueve sobre el puerto, mientras tanto mi canción;
llueve lentamente sobre tu desolación...
Anclas que ya nunca, nunca más, han de levar,
bordas de lanchones sin amarras que soltar...
Triste caravana sin destino ni ilusión,
como un barco preso en la "botella del figón"
.

Elderly Look So Much Better Here
Another land of the lost picture. Love going through old shit.
I'm afriad of getting old. yeah I know it's inevitable but it's scary seeing yourself deteriorate. I work in a hospital and you see death literally everyday. Some young many old but it's stil an experience.
Seriously can you imagine your self . Things you have done so many times over and over in your life seems like grueling chorus. It's bewildering how things can rapidly change. Then comes the realizing that you are going to die. That creeps me out. I rather not think about it until I'm forced to. On the other hand my boyfriend has actually planned how he would like to pass and the arrangements after. Yeah I know a bit freaking weird right.
I wonder what her life was. If she had some major regrets. She looks like she is thinking about something big. Hope it's not rent. Beacuse been there and it's not fun. Damn i hate money.
Hopefully she has lived a fufilled life and is content with her mark in life. beacue sleeping without a peace of mind is one of the true tortures. the infamous question "what if?"

Dne 28. února 2025 se stala ve stanici Hustopeče nad Bečvou vážná železniční nehoda, při které došlo k vykolejení několika cisteren ložených benzenem a jejich následnému rozsáhlému požáru. Vlivem toho byl zcela přerušen provoz v úseku Hranice na Moravě – Lhotka nad Bečvou, a to na delší dobu. Nákladní vlaky, které měly tímto úsekem projíždět, byly odkloněny, což byl i případ vlaku loženého sklářským pískem pro sklárnu ve slovenském městě Nemšová. Jeho odklonová trasa ovšem vedla netradičně přes Staré Město u Uherského Hradiště, Uherský Brod, Bylnici a Vlárský průsmyk. Po této trase již tento vlak jezdil v roce 2022, kdy došlo k sesuvu svahu v úseku Valašská Polanka – Horní Lideč. V té době se vozba ložených vlaků odehrávala v noci nebo nad ránem, což se mělo dít i nyní, ale vlivem husté osobní dopravy se jízda vlaku protáhla o několik hodin a bylo možné ho tedy spatřit za denního světla. To dokazuje snímek pořízený dne 6. března 2025 nedaleko bývalé stanice Pitín, na kterém je zachycena lokomotiva 744.179 v čele 1774 tun těžkého vlaku Nex 52755 [Jestřebí–Nemšová]. Na postrku na plný výkon pracovala dvojice strojů 742.075+426. Vlak již měl v tomto místě nejnáročnější stoupání za sebou, tím bylo stoupání okolo obce Pitín, ale do vrcholového bodu tratě před Slavičínem mu ještě chybělo několik kilometrů. Jednalo se tak, na místní poměry, o nevšední podívanou, jelikož v úseku Bojkovice–Bylnice již není provozována žádná pravidelná nákladní doprava. Zachytit tak nákladní vlak s dvěma nejvýznamnějšími památkami mikroregionu Bojkovska - kostelem sv. Vavřince a zámkem Nový Světlov, vyžaduje notnou dávku štěstí.
Reaparecer en Flickr siempre es una alegría aunque sólo sea para saludar a una querida persona por su cumpleaños... Para ti, con mucho cariño, querido Ángel (komuniker59), intentando capturar la esencia del bambú con un aire minimalista, te deseo lo mejor en este día, feliz cumpleaños y por muchos más!!! Espero seguir disfrutando de tu arte y tu poesía fotográfica!!!
SÓLO QUIERO AIRE
Cuento de Filosofía Sufí
Un joven fue a ver a un sabio maestro y le preguntó:
-Señor, ¿qué debo hacer para conseguir lo que yo quiero?
El sabio no contestó.
El joven después de repetir su pregunta varias veces con el mismo resultado se marchó y volvió al día siguiente con la misma demanda.
No obtuvo ninguna respuesta y entonces volvió por tercera vez y repitió su pregunta:
-¿Qué debo hacer para conseguir lo que yo quiero?
El sabio le dijo:
-Ven conmigo.
Y se dirigieron a un río cercano. Entró en el agua llevando al joven de la mano y cuando alcanzaron cierta profundidad el sabio se apoyó en los hombros del joven y lo sumergió en el agua y pese a los esfuerzos del joven por desasirse de él, allí lo mantuvo. Al fin lo dejó salir y el joven respiró recuperando su aliento. Entonces le preguntó el sabio:
-Cuando estabas bajo el agua, ¿qué era lo que más deseabas?
Sin vacilar contestó el joven:
-Aire, quería aire.
-¿No hubieras preferido mejor riquezas, comodidad, placeres, poder o amor?
–No, señor, deseaba aire, necesitaba aire y sólo aire -fue su inmediata respuesta.
-Entonces -contestó el sabio-, para conseguir lo que tú quieres, debes quererlo con la misma intensidad con que querías el aire, debes luchar por ello y excluir todo lo demás. Debe ser tu única aspiración día y noche.
Si tienes ese fervor, conseguirás sin duda lo que quieres.
Y vale la pena escuchar a Mercedes Sosa y Pablo Milanés en Años. Imperdible!!!

Mañañana, jueves, día 16 de mayo de 2013, a las 20.00 horas, será proyectado en el Salón de Actos del Centro Cívico Juan de Austria, el audiovisual CANCIÓN DE MAR, realizado por un servidor, en versión ampliada del que fuera presentado el jueves, día 19 de abril de 2012, en el marco de la celebración del II Maratón Audiovisual Ciudad de Valladolid , en la cuarta jornada de dicha edición.
Este trabajo ha sido elaborado conjuntamente con una exposición y una publicación, integrantes de un proyecto fotográfico que inicié en el año 2006, hasta darlo por concluido en el año 2010, bajo el título "De boquerones y marengos", que trata de contar a través de imágenes el día a día de las duras jornadas de trabajo de los pescadores del litoral malagueño. Para poder elaborar el proyecto, en el que inicialmente trabajé sobre un total de más de 2.000 instantáneas, me embarqué en un pesquero de arrastre patroneado por un buen amigo, Sebastián, durante los veranos de los años 2006, 2007 y 2010. A él, a su tripulación, y al resto de marineros del litoral de la Axarquía está dedicado esta pequeña muestra del proyecto.

Domingo de Ramos, Antigua Guatemala, Guatemala
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Para los Cristianos Católicos, el Domingo de Ramos es el primer día de la Semana Santa, período en que conmemoran la Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección de Jesucristo. Se inicia rememorando la Entrada de Jesús en Jerusalén. La fecha de celebración varía cada año, siempre en el entorno de los meses de marzo y abril.
Las ceremonias litúrgicas de ese día comienzan con la bendición de las palmas y ramas de olivo o laurel que llevan en sus manos los fieles, rememorando el pasaje evangélico. Se celebran los misterios de salvación realizados por Cristo en los últimos días desde su entrada mesiánica en la ciudad de Jerusalén.
La semana santa comienza con el domingo de Ramos de la Pasión Señor, que une el triunfo de Cristo -aclamado como Mesías por los habitantes de Jerusalén y hoy en el rito de la procesión de las palmas por los católicos- y el anuncio de la pasión, con la proclamación de la narración litúrgica en la Misa.
Los ramos no son algo así como un talismán o un simple objeto bendito, sino el signo de la participación gozosa en el rito procesional, expresión de la fe de la Iglesia en Cristo, Mesías y Señor, que va hacia la muerte para la salvación de todos los hombres. Por eso, este domingo tiene un doble carácter, de gloria y de sufrimiento, que es lo propio del Misterio Pascual.
Los días que van hasta el Jueves Santo pertenecen al tiempo cuaresmal, pero están caracterizados por los últimos acontecimientos de la vida del Señor, con exclusión de otras celebraciones.
En el caso de Guatemala, el Domingo de Ramos es peculiar, lleno de alegría y colorido. Los ramos bendecidos provienen de una palma especial que se da en la costa occidental y en la Bocacosta del país llamada palma real o monaca (Orbygnia cohune). Durante la Semana de Dolores se cortan las hojas de esta palma real y con ellos se elaboran "los ramos benditos", cortando o deshilachando la hoja de palma. Los ramos benditos son adornados con flor de corozo, proveniente de la misma palma odorante o bien con flores propias de la temporada cuaresmal, como la estaticia morada o claveles rojos y blancos.
Cofradías o Hermandades
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
El traje talar utilizado por los cucuruchos en Guatemala tiene una larga trayectoria. Su origen se remonta a los primeros trajes de peregrinos utilizados en Europa, hacia el siglo IX, cuando recorrían los lugares sagrados del centro europeo y, sobre todo, a partir del siglo XI, cuando visitaban los lugares santos en Medio Oriente. Esta indumentaria estaba ligada a la utilizada en conventos y abadías. Otra influencia fue el traje de peregrino establecido por la orden franciscana, a partir del siglo XII. Estos ropajes tuvieron amplísima difusión en toda Europa. En España se volvieron comunes, sobre todo en las peregrinaciones a Santiago en Compostela.
La vestimenta del cucurucho en la actualidad se compone de una túnica morada, para los días de Cuaresma y Semana Santa, o negra, para ser utilizada en las procesiones de Viernes Santo. Lleva una esclavina morada o negra, también llamada paletina, que es una sobrecapilla que se coloca en los hombros, como símbolo de penitencia y deriva directamente de los penitentes del Santiago de Compostela. La esclavina de Jesús de Candelaria, usada el Jueves Santo, es blanca para conmemorar la institución de la Eucaristía y porque en 1597 le fue concedido, por bula papal de Inocencio IV, el privilegio de utilizar dicho color. Para ceñirse la túnica se usa un cíngulo o cinturón morado, blanco o negro según la simbología del día, que recuerda la autoflagelación con el que se castigaba el cuerpo, en tiempos coloniales, y que era también portado por los caminantes de Santiago de Compostela. El traje se completa con un parasol también negro o morado, según el día y la procesión. Algunas variantes son los “cascos romanos”, forrados de tela morada, como en Candelaria.
Church of St David , Llanddew.
Llanddew Church is in the Diocese of Swansea and Brecon, in the community of Llanddew in the county of Powys. It is located at Ordnance Survey national grid reference SO0548330743. At one time it may have been dedicated to the Holy Trinity.
Summary
St.David's Church at Llanddew is a large cruciform stone structure with a central tower, lying 2km to the north-east of Brecon. It is considered to be a 'clas' foundation, but the earliest parts of the structure date from the 13thC. There have been subsequent rebuildings in the 17thC and 19thC. Medieval survivals include two stoups, a font and two carved lintels, as well as a stone with a ring-cross which may be pre-Conquest. The churchyard may originally have been curvilinear but its form has been modified in later centuries.
Nave supposed to be earliest part of church; this could be true for the south wall excepting the window insertions, but the west wall is a complete Victorian rebuild and it is possible that a substantial part of the featureless north wall was treated likewise in the 19thC.
North transept has portions rebuilt, namely the upper part of the north wall and some of the west, but the remainder should be 13thC on the basis of the single lancet window in the east wall.
For both chancel and south transept, it is difficult to determine the degree of rebuilding, and while the 13thC date is not in doubt most of the window dressings are considerably more recent. The porch, too, is 19thC.
Parts of the following description are quoted from the 1979 publication 'The Buildings of Wales: Powys' by Richard Haslam
History
Llanddew was an early medieval clas foundation. There is also a tradition that Eluned, a daughter of Brecon, fled to this church about 500 AD.
The Bishop of St Davids established a palace here in the 12thC, and Giraldus Cambrensis, as archdeacon of Brecon, had a residence at Llanddew in the late 12thC.
Its appearance in the 1291 Taxatio as 'Ecclesia de Llandon' at a value of œ8 implies a more wealthy establishment than the average.
The central tower was rebuilt in 1629 as attested by a plaque in the west wall of the chancel, and was restored in c.1780, the date of the roof. It is claimed that the nave was also refurbished in the 1620s.
Damage to the church may have occurred in a fire early in the 19thC.
In 1865 Glynne recorded a small whitewashed cruciform church in a 'truely deplorable' condition. The nave alone was used for services, the unpaved north transept was dilapidated and the south transept was walled off for a school, which no longer operated because of a lack of funds. The chancel was Early English in design, vaulted in stone, with lancet windows in the sides and a triplet with hood mouldings in the east wall; the priest's door had a trefoil head and a good hoodmould. The rest of the church might also be Early English but its diagnostic features had been obliterated, the nave having modern windows, though the north side was windowless. The tower was low and clumsy, with square belfry windows and a tiled, pointed roof. It stood on four plain semi-circular arches. There was a plain south porch. Inside were pews and there was a shabby chest for an altar. The east wall of the chancel had a small square recess and there was a 'rude' pointed piscina. The font in the chancel with its large circular bowl on a quadrangular stem with chamfered angles was not used.
By 1875 only the nave was in use, the other parts of the building being closed off, because of their state of disrepair. Restoration occurred in 1884 when the chancel and south transept were refurbished, new roofs were put in place in the chancel and transepts, and there was some new flooring; and in 1900 the nave had new lancets, a new roof, and the walls were stripped. A number of fragmentary post-medieval wall paintings of texts were uncovered in the chancel during the works but these have since been destroyed.
Architecture
Llanddew church is a massive cruciform structure with short transepts and a longer nave and chancel. There is a tower over the crossing and a south porch towards the south-west angle of the nave. It is aligned east to west.
Fabrics: 'A' comprises slabs and a few blocks of predominantly grey and red sandstone, most of them small to medium in size but a few large. Better dressed stones selected for quoins. 'B' is of small rather haphazardly laid lumps of red, brown and grey sandstone. 'C' is of predominantly grey sandstone (though some red) masonry, irregular in appearance and in coursing, small to medium in size and less uniform than 'A'.
Roofs: shale tiles, ornamental terracotta ridge tiles; stone cross finials to nave, north transept and chancel but a metal cross above the porch.
Drainage: stone chipping around wall base of building indicates an underlying drain.
Exterior
Nave. General. Supposedly the earliest part of the building. However, the evidence might point to the north wall abutting the north transept, though reverse is true for the south wall.
North wall: in Fabric 'A' with a strong batter to height of 1.5m and then a general slope inwards; no windows. Highest quoins at north-west corner (the last 0.8m) replaced to support Victorian kneelers; limewash traces near north-east corner.
South wall: mainly Fabric 'A' with a faint batter at base. West of the first lancet the junction with the Victorian west wall is visible. Further east plaster/render remnants can be seen on 'A'. Three lancet windows, all Victorian, but a good job made of the insertions.
West wall: fabric is largely 'A' but almost certainly re-used, the whole having been rebuilt with the possible exception of the foundation at the north-west corner. Three lancet windows all with modern dressings.
North transept. General. Base battered to maximum height of over 2m on north, dropping to about 1m near the south-west angle. Basically Fabric 'A' throughout, though occasional anomalies visible.
North wall: batter in Fabric 'A' but higher up on either side of the window (though not perhaps as far as the wall angles) the masonry is in 'B'. Lancet window with grey sandstone dressings - Victorian.
East wall: fabric akin to 'A', and batter not as pronounced as on north side. A single, small, narrow lancet now used as an electricity cable inlet is 13thC; some jambstones replaced but others could be original.
West wall: in Fabric 'A' but close to angle with nave the upper part of the wall appears to have been replaced. One Victorian lancet window, the inserted masonry around it just visible.
Tower. General. Pyramidal roof to tower which was rebuilt in 1623 and restored in 18thC; with weathercock. It is not centrally placed but stands a little south of the east/west axis.
North wall: masonry of Fabric 'A' with quoins some of which are dressed, others poorly so. Rectangular, louvred, belfry window with wooden lintel and projecting stone sill. Apex of north transept roof to within one metre of the window and above the meeting place is a stone drip-course with lead flashing beneath.
East wall: chancel roof higher than that of north transept, and belfry window, though of exactly the same form as on the north, is commensurately smaller.
South wall: as north wall in all aspects.
West wall: as east wall but to south and below belfry level is a small, glazed slit window without dressings.
Chancel. General. Low batter on all sides, rising to no more than 0.5m. Fabric 'C'.
North wall: some reconstruction adjacent to north transept wall where a narrow vertical band of masonry is slightly inset. Three Victorian lancets though just possible that the most easterly window has one or two original jambstones.
East wall: Three lancet windows with continuous hoodmould arching over each individually. The smaller, outer lancets have new yellow stone heads, but the jambs of all of them are flaking and weathering, and conceivably some might be earlier. Fabric above the hoodmould is more weathered and lichened and this runs down almost to the bottom of the corners where there are dressed yellow freestone quoins of Victorian date. It thus appears that the upper part of the wall has been reconstructed using original weathered masonry.
South wall: weathered 'C'. Three lancets; the jambs eroding on the most easterly and in grey sandstone with a yellow sandstone head; the other two have red sandstone dressings but none are convincingly original. Trefoil-headed priest's door in Decorated style, and while the yellow sandstone head is undoubtedly relatively new some of the jambs could be original, and likewise the hoodmould in the form of a two-centred arch with worn extremities.
South transept. General. Battered to height of 1.6m on south side, 1.3m on west. Fabric 'C'.
East wall: appears to be 'C' though perhaps 'B' in places. Large two-centred arch turned in edge slabs with carefully selected jambstones; this must be Victorian or later
South wall: heavy repointing above eaves level; dressed quoins. Victorian lancet in flaking grey sandstone.
West wall: one Victorian lancet.
Porch. General. Abuts nave and was constructed in the 19thC.
East wall: plain. Appears to be an 'A'-type fabric.
South wall: two-centred archway employing large voussoirs; no dressed quoins. Gable projects with collar showing externally.
West wall: plain.
Interior
Porch. General. Flagged floor; bare walls; Victorian roof of collars and rafters, replacing earlier roof for which a ledge is still visible on the south wall of the nave. Resting on the ground against the east and west walls are the carved lintels from an earlier church (see below).
North wall: doorway to church has modern segmental arch and large jambstones of red sandstone which are probably original.
East and west walls: plain.
South wall: reveal of doorway turned in edge stones at outer face.
Nave. General. Floored with red tiles, benches raised on wooden boarding, and the aisle carpet-covered with several grilles over the heating duct. Walls bare of plaster. Roof has two tie beams with king posts supporting a collar purlin and collar beams above.
North wall: nothing of note.
East wall: plain, off-centre, round-headed arch turned in edge stones; jambstones not chamfered. Wall battered at base and north wall of nave appears to butt against it.
South wall: uniformly splayed windows, each having a two-centred internal arch turned in edge stones. One corbel at a height of c.3m beside most easterly window might have supported a loft or gallery.
West wall: windows as south wall.
Crossing:. One step up from nave. Tiled floor; bare walls. Ceiled in wood just above the apex of the arches; the ceiling rest on eleven corbels, not of uniform design.
North wall: two-centred arch, smaller than its counterparts in the east and west walls, leads into north transept; its soffit is turned in edge stones.
East wall: round-headed arch in edge stones.
South wall: round-headed arch with a keystone and the arch turned in blocks with similar jambs; the arch is only one block deep. Two mural tablets of 1814 and 1823 in south-east corner.
West wall: round-headed arch as on east side.
North transept. General. Now used as a vestry. Tiled floor; walls plastered and whitewashed. Older roof than that in nave with a tie beam and collar against the north wall and two tiers of triangular windbraces.
North wall: splayed window but nothing of note.
East wall: the small lancet is backed on the inside by a large two-centred alcove for an altar. In south-east corner is a squint into the chancel.
South wall: wall has battered base. A gallery approached by a ladder is supported on corbels and gives access via a rectangular doorway to the tower.
West wall: splayed window but nothing of note.
Chancel. General. One step up from crossing, a further two steps up to sanctuary and one to altar. Tiled floor with encaustic tiles in sanctuary; choir stalls on raised wooden platforms. Walls plastered and whitewashed, except for internal jambs and sills of windows. Roof of four bays, the same form as the nave.
North wall: three splayed windows; squint at north-west angle. Corbel to east of central window, again at a height of c.3.0m, and either for a rood screen or a statuette.
East wall: splayed windows.
South wall: splayed windows, Victorian piscina with two-centred arched recess and a flat base. A corbel matches that on the north wall. 17thC graveslab fragment leans against south wall of chancel near priest's door.
West wall: round-headed arch. Plaque of 1629 set into wall face just to north of it, reads: 'This steeple was newly erected and made in Apriel Anno Dom. 1629. William Havard and William Griffith Gent then churchwardens'. Two coats-of-arms of the churchwardens also set into wall.
South transept. General. Used as a separate chapel with an altar against the south wall, and in the 19thC as a schoolroom. Tiled floor; walls plastered and whitewashed. Roof of braced collars; that against the north wall could be original, the rest are replaced.
North wall: wall face shows disconformity at eaves level which could indicate rebuilding; squint in north-east corner and redundant stoup placed in it.
East wall: doorway of no age. Monument of 1855 near south-east corner.
South wall: splayed window; monument of 1833.
West wall: splayed window; two monuments, that of 1848 above that of 1864.
Churchyard
Llanddew has an irregular churchyard, best described as a polygonal D-shape; the only hint of curvilinearity is around the east side, though this does hint at an earlier oval enclosure. To the south of the church the ground is level, but on the north side it drops away, and this reflects the general siting which is on the southern edge of a dry valley.
The enclosure is well maintained and is used for current burials.
Boundary: buildings fringe the churchyard on the south, and there is a drystone wall on the west and further short stretches of wall on either side of the eastern entrance. On the north a garden hedge gives way to a hedged drop to the road. The churchyard area is raised on the north and east sides and there is internal banking on the west and south though the former may not be of any great age.
Monuments: these are spread out around the south and east sides of the church with a few on the west. Most are 19thC and 20thC and there are only a couple of 18thC examples to the east of the chancel.
Furniture: none.
Earthworks: there are minor earthworks on the south side which cannot be characterised and might even be derived from the construction of the adjacent house, though this does seem unlikely. A low scarp just inside the east entrance reveals the original course of the churchyard perimeter.
Ancillary features: stone and timber lychgate at the east, a small wooden gate into field on west side of the churchyard, and a farm gate at the north-west corner.
Vegetation: there are two yews, one each on the east and west sides, and pines along the west side.
El Castillo de Chapultepec, (Chapultepec es palabra de origen náhuatl «Chapulli, saltamontes, y tepe(tl), cerro, Chapultepetl», que significa "cerro del saltamontes" o "cerro del chapulín") es uno de los 2 castillos que existen en América.
En 1785, en la época del Virreinato de Nueva España, el virrey Bernardo de Gálvez ordenó la construcción de una casa de campo en el punto más alto de la colina de Chapultepec. Francisco Bambitelli, el Teniente Coronel del Ejército español e ingeniero, elaboró el proyecto, y la construcción comenzó el 16 de agosto del mismo año con un estilo barroco.
Durante el segundo Imperio Mexicano el palacio comenzó a adquirir una imagen moderna, cuando a la llegada del emperador Maximiliano de Habsburgo, Maximiliano I de México, y su esposa la emperatriz Carlota en 1864 decidieron establecer ahí su residencia oficial. El Emperador contrató a varios arquitectos europeos y mexicanos, entre ellos Julius Hofmann, Carl Gangolf Kayser, Carlos Schaffer, Eleuterio Méndez y Ramón Rodríguez Arangoity, para realizar varios proyectos que siguieron un estilo neoclásico en la arquitectura (contrastando con el resto del castillo que tiene una arquitectura barroca) y convertir el palacio en un lugar más habitable.
El botánico Wilhelm Knechtel se encargó de crear el jardín situado en la azotea del edificio. Además, el Emperador trajo de Europa varias piezas de mobiliario, arte y muchos otros finos artículos que siguen exhibiéndose hasta el día de hoy.
Ya que el palacio estaba retirado de la ciudad de México, el emperador Maximiliano ordenó la construcción de un bulevar que conectaba directamente la residencia imperial con el centro de la ciudad, y decidió nombrarlo Paseo de la Emperatriz (en honor a su esposa). Tras el asesinato del emperador y la restauración de la República en 1867 por Benito Juárez y el final de la Guerra de Reforma, el bulevar fue rebautizado como Paseo de la Reforma.
Life on earth is a temporary assignment.
The Bible is full of metaphors that teach the
brief, temporary, transient nature of life on
earth. Life is described as a mist, a fast runner,
a breath, and a wisp of smoke. The Bible says,
“For we were born but yesterday. . . . Our days on
earth are as transient as a shadow.”
To make the best use of your life, you must
never forget two truths: First, compared with
eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is
only a temporary residence. You won’t be here
long, so don’t get too attached. Ask God to
help you see life on earth as he sees it. David
prayed, “Lord, help me to realize how brief my
time on earth will be. Help me to know that I am
here for but a moment more.”
Repeatedly God’s Word compares life on
earth to temporarily living in a foreign country.
This is not your permanent home or final destination.
You’re just passing through, just
visiting earth. The Bible uses terms like alien,
pilgrim, foreigner, stranger, visitor, and traveler
to describe our brief stay on earth. David said,
“I am but a foreigner here on earth,” and St.
Peter explained, “If you call God your Father, live
your time as temporary residents on earth.”

La ameba Nebela se ha echado a dormir, se ha enquistado dentro de su cascarón de pepitas de cuarzo formando una esfera como el mundo; así estará bien arropada y protegida, y quizá de esa forma pueda pasar mejor el invierno de hielo, en la Sierra de la Culebra le espera bajo los aullidos sobrecogedores de los lobos que a veces visitan la charca en la que vive.
Hoy la Naturaleza ha gastado una broma a esta ameba discreta, colocando sobre la cúpula de su casa un tirabuzón. Molinete verde que adorna su cabeza haciéndola presumida en este tiempo de sueño invernal. La espiral de la vida seguirá su ciclo y este filamento que adorna como una joya minúscula, la minúscula casa de joya de Nebela se irá despertando al desperezarse la espiral, cuando sople el viento de primavera.
Cuando ella llegue se convertirá en hilo ondulado...hilo de vida de una cianobacteria que aunque recuerda a Lyngbia contorta probablemente sea Scitonema...y que ha hecho lo mismo que Nebela. Se ha convertido en un ovillo para pasar estos fríos de invierno junto a la compañía de esta ameba. Cuando la primavera empiece a despertar ellas lo harán también transformando su belleza estática en latido.
La ameba Nebela protege su cuerpo dentro de un cascarón fuertemente comprimido en forma de gota y ese cascarón de doble capa, se cubre hoy de pepitas de cuarzo transparentes que ella misma fabrica como gotas de cristal.
La cápsula que encierra el cuerpo de Nebela suele ser ligeramente ocre o amarillenta, comprimida lateralmente y presenta pequeños poros laterales difíciles de observar. El cuello tras el que se encuentra la apertura de su casa - que puede ser lineal, ligeramente o fuertemente curvada - es muy corto, apenas está marcado y su borde está rodeado por un collar de materia orgánica.
El caparazón y casa de esta ameba puede estar compuesto de dos capas una interna constituida por un cemento orgánico y la más externa donde se adhieren partículas minerales, restos de diatomeas o placas de sílice fabricadas por ella misma, como ocurre en la Nebela de hoy. El caso es que para que pueda tener esta capa exterior fabricada con placas, necesita alimentarse de otras amebas que también tengan caparazón. Si no lo tienen y se alimenta solo de amebas desnudas, su cuerpo estará también semidesnudo y únicamente protegido por la capa más interna de cemento traslúcido.
Cuando camina por los fondos Nebela desparrama sus brazos en el agua abriéndose en ella y abrazándola como gruesas raíces móviles que se funden y desaparecen para volver a surgir en mil formas diferentes.
Nebella tubulosa , no es una ameba común, la de hoy vive entre los esfagnos de una turbera situada en las inmediaciones de la pequeña localidad de Boya, situado en pleno corazón de la Sierra de la culebra de Zamora y ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos con la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

This image was very tricky to shoot and difficult to manipulate because I did not have any idea on how to make it work.
There's only very slight motion going on because I wanted to make it look almost like a freeze frame.
The final works are actually not in print format, they're projected onto the center of the frame she enters (in the First Phase) coupled with a soundtrack and sound effects. I have the video but didn't do a recording of it being projected onto the frame. It's probably going to go up for exhibition at my school so maybe I'll a recording then.
So glad it's over! Sleeping, getting back to games and online shopping are currently my top priorities.
I'll still be shooting, but I might be trying a new style. (This whole series was quite new to me, having the make the settings etc, it's also aesthetically quite different from my preferred ghostly themed work or vintage inspired photographs) I'm not sure yet but possibilities are endless. One thing though, I really don't like studio lights, it just doesn't seem to fit what I do so I'll still be using natural lighting :D Might want to try incorporating drawing with photography or maybe take up digital painting and see how things go from there.

Depuis le 3 Octobre, plus de 200 familles dorment dans la rue de la Banque pour protester contre l'absence de logements décents. Français ou immigrés en situation régulière, tous travaillent mais vivent dans des conditions déplorables: le plus souvent à l'hôtel, ou dans des appartements minuscules, parfois menacés d'expulsion.
Dimanche 11 Novembre, une manifestation de soutien aux mal logés a réuni de 2000 à 3000 personnes, malgré la pluie. Monseigneur Gaillot, Josiane Balasko, Patrick Pelloux étaient présents dans le cortège au départ de la rue de la Banque, qui est ensuite passé devant le passage Brady, où un incendie a fait 3 morts cette semaine, et devant l'hôtel Paris Opéra, au 76 rue de Provence, où un incendie en avril 2005 avait fait plus d'une vingtaine de victimes. L'occasion pour les associations de dénoncer les "marchands de sommeil" qui continuent à profiter d'une politique d'hébergement désastreuse en partie financée par l'Etat lui-même, dont le budget hôtelier a été multiplié par 10 en 5 ans...

L'any 1996, Andrés, que tenia 12 anys, va fitxar pel Barça, després de destacar en el torneig infantil de Brunete com a jugador de l'Albacete, i des del principi va tenir una gran progressió. Va militar dues temporades al Barcelona B fins que la temporada 2002-2003, Van Gaal el va fer debutar en un partit de la Lliga de Campions.
Durant dues temporades, la 2002-2003 i 2003-2004, va combinar partits amb el Barça B amb alguns amb el primer equip.
La temporada 2004-2005 va passar a formar part definitivament de la plantilla del primer equip, i va participar activament de la consecució del títol de campió de la Lliga espanyola de futbol. Tot i que no va ser titular habitual en l'onze de Frank Rijkaard acostumava a ser el primer jugador a sortir al camp en les segones parts. De fer, tan sols es va perdre un partit de lliga i va ser el jugador de la plantilla que va disputar més partits, juntament amb Samuel Eto'o.
El 17 de maig de 2006 va participar a la final de la Lliga de Campions, la seva actuació va ser important per a que l'equip aconseguís el títol per segona vegada en la seva història.
A partir de la temporada 2007-2008 portarà el dorsal número 8, enlloc del número 24 que portava a l'actualitat.

Andrés Iniesta fichó por el FC Barcelona en septiembre de 1996, cuando tenía 12 años, tras destacar en el torneo infantil de Brunete, en el que participó como jugador del Albacete Balompié. En poco tiempo pasó a ser una de las jóvenes promesas de las categorías inferiores del FC Barcelona.
Militó dos temporadas en el Barcelona B hasta que, en la temporada 2002-2003, debutó en el primer equipo de la mano del entrenador Louis van Gaal.
Durante dos temporadas, la 2002-2003 y 2003-2004, combinó partidos con el Barcelona B con algunos partidos con el primer equipo.
En la temporada 2004-2005 pasó a formar parte definitivamente de la plantilla del primer equipo, y participó muy activamente en la consecución del título de campeón de la Liga española de fútbol. Pese a que no fue titular habitual en el once de Frank Rijkaard, acostumbraba a ser el primer jugador en salir al campo en las segundas partes. De hecho, sólo se perdió un partido de liga y fue, participando en 37 encuentro, el jugador de la plantilla que disputó más partidos, junto a Samuel Eto'o.
El 17 de mayo de 2006 participó en la final de la Liga de Campeones en la que el FC Barcelona ganó y consiguió su segundo título.
Su dorsal inicialmente era el número 24, pero el 19 de junio de 2007 se le otorgó el 8, dejado por Giuly. Este dorsal lo había llevado anteriormente en categorías inferiores.
El 25 de enero de 2008 renovó con el FC Barcelona hasta el 30 de junio de 2014, aumentando su clausula de rescisión desde los 60 millones de euros hasta los 150 millones.Muestra de su mayor peso en el equipo, la temporada 2008/09 fue elegido cuarto capitán, por detrás de Carles Puyol, Xavi Hernández y Víctor Valdés.
El edificio ocupado por el Ayuntamiento fue construido para ser destinado a casino de San Sebastián, y fue inaugurado en 1887.
Su imponente fachada, de casi cien metros de largo, da al paseo de la Concha y a los jardines de Alderdi-Eder.
La planta del edificio queda dividida longitudinalmente en dos partes, existiendo una entrada principal por cada fachada. En la imagen, la orientada a Alderdi-Eder, el cuerpo central presenta en planta baja grandes huecos coronados por arcos de medio punto. En la primera, éstos se repiten dando lugar a amplios balcones. Esta parte central coronada por un reloj, queda separada de los extremos mediante dos torreones esbeltos de cuatro alturas que rompen la horizontalidad del conjunto.
El Urgull es una montaña situada entre la Parte Vieja de San Sebastián y su Paseo Nuevo, junto al mar. En este promontorio se conservan fortificaciones que en su día abrazaban por completo la antigua ciudad. Empleadas militarmente en el pasado hoy albergan exposiciones, además de componer un atractivo parque urbano con espectaculares vistas de las playas que adornan la fisionomía de la localidad. El Monte Urgull también cuenta con vegetación natural y exótica. En la parte alta está el Castillo de la Mota, con tres capillas, una de ellas dedicada al Cristo de la Mota. Una de estas capillas (de 16 metros de altura) sirve de peana a la emblemática imagen del Sagrado Corazón, de 12,5 metros de altura.

Haley and I drove up past Waimea to Saddle Road and steadily climbed towards the top of Mauna Kea. Unlike Maui's volcano, the drive seemed to take very little time - maybe because I was looking forward to it so much.
We ended up at the visitor's center at around 9200 feet and went for a short hike up to the crest of a small butte to watch the sunset from. We settled in and I ended up down the crest of the hill a bit to get out of other's folks' way while still being able to compose from a variety of angles.
This was taken just after the sun had dropped below the horizon. Soon thereafter, it got bitter cold. I stayed out for another 30-45 minutes to watch the stars rise, and was the last person to leave the hilltop.
Haley and I then finished off our awesome night by gazing at the Orion Nebula, Venus, and the moon through a number of scopes the astronomical society had set up.

San Miguel de Allende, ciudad del estado mexicano de Guanajuato, se encuentra a una altitud de 1910 m y dista 274 km de la Ciudad de México.
El 7 de julio de 2008 fue inscrita por la Unesco en el Patrimonio cultural de la Humanidad. Anteriormente fue parte del proyecto de "pueblos mágicos", pero debido a esta última distinción de la Unesco, fue cambiada su designación.
La ciudad fue fundada en 1542 por el monje franciscano Fray Juan de San Miguel, quien bautizó el asentamiento como San Miguel el Grande. Era un punto de paso importante del Antiguo Camino Real, parte de la ruta de plata que se conectaba con Zacatecas.
El pueblo se destacó durante la Guerra de Independencia de México. Ignacio Allende, nativo de San Miguel, fue un líder clave en la guerra. Capturado cuando marchaba hacia Estados Unidos en busca de armas, fue juzgado en Chihuahua, sentenciado y fusilado. Su cabeza fue expuesta en uno de los ángulos de la Alhóndiga de Granaditas en Guanajuato junto a las de Miguel Hidalgo, Juan Aldama y Mariano Jiménez. La población de San Miguel el Grande fue elevada a ciudad el 8 de marzo de 1826 y cambió el nombre por "San Miguel de Allende" en honor al héroe nacional.
Durante la década de 1950,
San Miguel de Allende se convirtió en un lugar turístico conocido por su bella arquitectura colonial y sus fuentes termales.
El lugar es famoso por su clima templado, los ojos de agua termal y su arquitectura.
La iglesia de San Francisco de Asís se comenzó a construir en 1778 y tardó más de 20 años en terminarse, se observan diferentes cambios arquitectónicos de acuerdo con el periodo y la moda. La fachada es churrigueresca pura, con una enorme cantidad de figuras labradas de piedra y afiladas columnas. Sin embargo, el campanario, construido en 1799 por el famoso arquitecto, Francisco Eduardo Tresguerras, es de estilo neoclásico, el cual estaba de moda entonces.

Bread is one of the oldest prepared foods, dating back to the Neolithic era. The first breads produced were probably cooked versions of a grain-paste, made from ground cereal grains and water, and may have been developed by accidental cooking or deliberate experimentation with water and grain flour. Descendants of these early breads are still commonly made from various grains worldwide, including the Mexican tortilla, Indian chapatis, rotis and naans, Scottish oatcake, North American johnnycake, Middle Eastern Pita bread (Kmaj in Arabic and Pitot in Hebrew) and Ethiopian injera. The basic flat breads of this type also formed a staple in the diet of many early civilizations with the Sumerians eating a type of barley flat cake, and the 12th century BC Egyptians being able to purchase a flat bread called ta from stalls in the village streets.
The development of leavened bread can probably also be traced to prehistoric times. Yeast spores occur everywhere, including the surface of cereal grains, so any dough left to rest will become naturally leavened. Although leavening is likely of prehistoric origin, the earliest archaeological evidence is from ancient Egypt. Scanning electron microscopy has detected yeast cells in some ancient Egyptian loaves. However, ancient Egyptian bread was made from emmer wheat and has a dense crumb. In cases where yeast cells are not visible, it is difficult, by visual examination, to determine whether the bread was leavened. As a result, the extent to which bread was leavened in ancient Egypt remains uncertain.
There were multiple sources of leavening available for early bread. Airborne yeasts could be harnessed by leaving uncooked dough exposed to air for some time before cooking. Pliny the Elder reported that the Gauls and Iberians used the foam skimmed from beer to produce "a lighter kind of bread than other peoples." Parts of the ancient world that drank wine instead of beer used a paste composed of grape juice and flour that was allowed to begin fermenting, or wheat bran steeped in wine, as a source for yeast. The most common source of leavening however was to retain a piece of dough from the previous day to utilize as a form of sourdough starter.
Even within antiquity there was a wide variety of breads available. In the Deipnosophistae, the Greek author Athenaeus describes some of the breads, cakes, cookies, and pastries available in the Classical world. Among the breads mentioned are griddle cakes, honey-and-oil bread, mushroom shaped loaves covered in poppy seeds, and the military specialty of rolls baked on a spit. The type and quality of flour used to produce bread could also vary as noted by Diphilus when he declared "bread made of wheat, as compared with that made of barley, is more nourishing, more digestible, and in every way superior." In order of merit, the bread made from refined flour comes first, after that bread from ordinary wheat, and then the unbolted, made of flour that has not been sifted."

El pan fue el alimento básico de la humanidad desde la Prehistoria. Probablemente, los primeros panes estarían hechos con harinas de bellotas o de hayucos. Los arqueólogos han desenterrado fragmentos de pan ácimo en las excavaciones de los poblados cercanos a los lagos suizos. Se sabe que los egipcios elaboraban pan desde hace mucho tiempo y de ellos datan también las primeras evidencias arqueológicas de la utilización de la levadura en el pan, se cree que descubrieron la fermentación por casualidad. El pan comido por los Hebreos no llevaba ningún tipo de levadura.
En Roma, en la República ya había hornos públicos. Para los legionarios romanos el pan era un alimento habitual y era corriente que su dieta fuese en gran medida aceitunas y pan. Se les entregaba tres libras de trigo al día, que trituraban en un molinillo de mano compartido por un grupo limitado de soldados. La harina se hacía bucellatum o se metía en el horno para hacer pan. En algunas regiones que no formaban parte del imperio como Alemania o Suecia, algunos habitantes que habían combatido en el ejercito romano adoptaban el consumo de pan, y de aquí se extendía a sectores de la población.
Este gran consumo de pan durante el imperio romano implicó la gran importancia que tuvo el cultivo y comercio del trigo.
Con la caída del imperio romano se produjo un desabastecimiento de trigo en casi toda Europa, que ya se había acostumbrado de manera masiva a su consumo. Las exportaciones hacia el norte desaparecieron por completo. Prueba de la amplia difusión del pan en esa época la palabra inglesa "lady" significa en inglés antiguo "la persona que amasa el pan".
En Escandinavia, la población, ante la escasez de trigo tuvo acostumbrarse a elaborar panes de centeno y cebada, siendo corriente que se le añadiese a la masa corteza de pino molida.
En la Edad Media empiezan a elaborarse distintos tipos de pan ante la escasez de trigo, y como consecuencia de ello comienza su comercio; el pan blanco era un privilegio de los ricos y el pan negro de cebada, centeno o avena era para el resto de la población. Se hacía a mano, en el propio hogar o en hornos públicos.

1BRETHREN, IF any person is overtaken in misconduct or sin of any sort, you who are spiritual [who are responsive to and controlled by the Spirit] should set him right and restore and reinstate him, without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness, keeping an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted also.
2Bear (endure, carry) one another's burdens and [a]troublesome moral faults, and in this way fulfill and observe perfectly the law of Christ (the Messiah) and complete [b]what is lacking [in your obedience to it].
3For if any person thinks himself to be somebody [too important to condescend to shoulder another's load] when he is nobody [of superiority except in his own estimation], he deceives and deludes and cheats himself.
- Galatians 6:1-3 (Amplified Bible)
I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
By John Masefield (1878-1967).
(English Poet Laureate, 1930-1967.)

For someone who lives in a place where it never snows, it was pretty exciting to wake up the other day and have such a thick layer of frost on everything! Skylar and I had some fun running around in our yard and garden taking photos before school.
The frost was beautiful and so was the light! A perfect opportunity! I haven't been this photographically excited in a while! ;)
So, my Sister-In-Law left today back to San Antonio, Texas. She spent 1 week out here with me and my wife, it was nice to see her and have her for a visit. We took her to LA 1 night and our friend HoneyBeeJen, was nice enough to take us out to get a few cool views of the city. I did not have my tripod with me, so Jen was kind enough to loan me hers for a few. I was having a hard time getting a proper exposure as the foreground was so dark, and the background so lit up. I am still learning how to do long exposures and having fun doing so. I feel like I am learning from the best, Steven has been teaching me, but he is off trekking the Midwest working the carnival circuit at the moment. So I am stuck practicing and trying to learn this artful, and difficult technique. I am not sure how I feel about this particular picture as, I am not happy with the exposure. However, I know a lot of you will tell me what is wrong and help me grow in my learning! I hope you all have a great weekend, and I will be visiting your streams and commenting as I am back to work on Monday!!!!!!!
Enjoy,
Hector

Another shot of this great day!
I really liked the angle on the SV here, I don't know why I didn't put this shot on my stream before.
This Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce probably was the most eye-catching car at the track. It stood in the boxes at the paddock and only came out a few times to do some laps on the track.
I was at the paddock when this beast came of the track, immediately a crowd formed around the car but I managed to get this shot just before it took off for some more laps.
I was glad to have taken a few decent shots of this car at the event but I was really amazed when I encoutered this car, and was able to get some trackingshots of it, very unexpected on the highway that evening.
En el mini-safari fotográfico que hicimos los otros días, visitamos, entre otras cosas, la vieja cárcel de Caseros, parcialmente demolida.
En una de sus paredes, me encontré con esta imagen... casi una ironía que permanece como un símbolo... de todos los que estuvieron recluidos en el lugar. No es un graffiti, no es street art... pero no pude resistir fotografiarla...
Así que, ¡quiero de vuelta mi sonrisa...!!! Y para escuchar mientras la buscan...
(Ismael Serrano)
Ya nada es lo que era,
nuevos paisajes, nuevas fronteras,
delimitando mis gestos, mis costumbres.
Otra lumbre iluminará mis versos,
otros muertos mis soledades,
otras felicidades mis fiestas,
otras dudas mis certezas.
Ya nada es lo que era.
Me tendré que acostumbrar
a esta fría soledad
como un viejo con días contados a su enfermedad.
Y nombrarte o esperarte en un café,
y padecer otro principio,
y volver a los sitios en que me has abandonado,
y ser asesinado
allí donde te amé.
Ya sólo me queda
la vacía pena
del viajero que regresa.
Estoy tan perdido,
soy el asesino
de tantas primaveras.
Ya nada es lo que era.
Ya nada es lo que era,
recorreré las aceras
buscando una luz que me recuerde a ti.
¿Quién me acompañará ahora a los Alphaville?
¿Quién hará cicatriz mis heridas?
¿Quién descubrirá mis mentiras?
¿Quién facilitará mi huida?
Y es que ya nada es lo que era.
Ya sólo me queda
la vacía pena
del viajero que regresa.
Estoy tan perdido,
soy el asesino
de tantas primaveras.
Ya nada es lo que era.
Ya nada es lo que era.
¡Un besote inmenso para todos!!! ¡A pasarla bien!!!

I'm starting a new set of pictures today. I hope that this will be an ongoing series. The plan is to pair each picture in the set with a poem by our best known local poet, Byron Herbert Reece, who lived and wrote in the Choestoe area of Union County, Georgia, less than 20 miles from my home. The name Choestoe - pronounced "Chowee Stowee" is a Cherokee Indian word usually translated as "the place of the Dancing Rabbits." (I doubt that I will be patient or fortunate enough to actually get a shot of any rabbits dancing - I'm not sure my new camera even does videos!)
At any rate, I've started the set with a few pictures that I took this past Saturday at the Byron Herbert Reece Farm and Heritage Center. If you click on the set to the right you can learn more about the poet and the efforts to preserve his legacy.

Poem # 1:
ELBOWS ON THE SKY
If man might lean his elbows on the sky
As farmers lean their weight upon a wall
To look upon their ample fields that lie
Heavy with harvest in the yellow Fall
Then he might dicker with close-fisted fate,
Himself decide what to reject or keep
Before he comes at length beyond the gate
Where he may choose not anything but sleep.
Yet if he leaned but once upon a star
And saw his earth, and himself a fugitive,
As long as breath could keep life's door ajar
He would be happy but to breathe and live,
With little care for what he shall be when
Of death's gray waste he is a citizen.
from Ballad of the Bones and Other Poems 1945

Tôi gặp anh. Chúng tôi nói với nhau không nhiều, bởi vì tôi không biết phải bắt đầu từ đâu. Mọi thứ về anh còn ám ảnh, nó vẫn thế, vẫn bí ẩn. Thứ tình cảm với anh tôi không biết gọi là gì, mà tôi cũng chẵng thèm đặt tên vì sợ nó không còn như thế
Với Khói, sẽ có Người tình và Người yêu. Anh sẽ là gì, là Người tình anh nhé vì em đã có một người yêu. Chúng ta mỗi người có một thế giới riêng, một người yêu riêng, em vẫn rất yêu người yêu, nhưng em thích gặp anh người tình àh. Thích gần, nhưng không thích hôn, muốn chạm nhưng sợ cái nắm tay, muốn âu yếm nhưng sợ một cái vuốt ve, chỉ muốn nhìn là đủ!
_Mày đang ngoại tình đấy Khói àh!
Bạn tôi nói thế. Ngoại tình àh_từ ấy tôi dành cho những cặp vợ chồng! Tôi với anh là người yêu thì nói gì đến từ ấy, không đúng. Nhưng có dạo, tôi mắng nhiết anh, dỗi hờn vài ngày vì từ ấy. với một tư cách của Vợ!
_Tôi là vợ anh ấy!
Đầu dây bên kia im bặt! Hai người đã cưới nhau rồi àh?
Tôi cố gắng giữ bình tĩnh có thế! Rít thuốc, khói bay khắp phòng, cay quá! Tôi với anh là gì nhỉ, người yêu về tư cách chẵng hơn cô gái ấy, nhưng cái đại từ nhân xưng tôi vừa thốt ra thì đầy quyền lực. Tính cho cùng tôi là kẻ đến sau, là người chen ngang trong hai 2 họ yêu nhau. Lấy 6 tháng của mình để đổi từng 24 tháng ấy, tôi thấy thẹn thùng. Giây phút ấy, lòng kiêu hãnh tôi cao hơn tình yêu tôi dành cho anh. Cái “tôi” trong tôi lớn hơn tất cả, mọi gai góc lại trở về chen vào những ngày tháng hạnh phúc ít ỏi với anh. Tôi không giận nhiều khi đọc những dòng tin nhắn anh dành cho tình yêu 2 năm ấy. Tôi không rơi nước mắt tiếc nuối nhưng gì mình từng có với anh, trong Khói chỉ có mỗi ý nghĩa :”Tao hơn con người ấy!”
Tôi là kẻ ích kỉ, nhưng nhiều yêu thương và cả lòng tự trọng! Không cho phép mình yếu đuối, không thích van xin ủy mị trước một kẻ khác. Và lúc ấy tôi biết mình thắng, khi con người kia rơi nước mắt vì anh, còn tôi thì không. Người ta van nài tôi trả tình yêu về cho họ còn tôi thì không! Người ta kể lể với tôi đã hy sinh thế nào, yêu nhau thế nào, tôi thì không. Như thế là đủ, tôi biết với tôi, anh như thế là đủ. Buông đi cũng được, đã không còn yếu đuối sau nhiều chuyện xảy ra, đủ bình tĩnh để biết tôi đứng nơi đâu trong cuộc tình này. Như thế tôi gọi là chiến thắng.
_Anh ấy ngoại tình với chị, và hôm nay tôi biết!
Tôi đang nói với cô đấy, cô gái àh. Cô hãy suy nghĩ câu ấy, ý tôi là chồng tôi ngoại tình với cô, hiểu những gì tôi nói chứ. Cô là kẻ phá bĩnh cái hạnh phúc gia đình tôi.
Như thế cũng đủ cho người ta sợ hãi. Đanh đá vừa đủ, chanh chua vừa đủ, lời lẽ vừa đủ! Đang khiếp sợ đấy nhỉ?
Đã chọn em thì đừng có lần thứ hai, Khói không quen tha thứ, và đừng làm gì để em biết! Thế là đủ! Chỉ cần thế tôi vẫn có thể tiếp tục! Tôi có nhiều thứ hơn cô gái kia, tôi biết tôi có đủ tình yêu để giữ anh theo một cách khác.
Và cô gái bé nhỏ àh..tôi thắng cô chỉ một từ Vợ!:)
Đừng làm gì vượt quá giới hạn cho phép, cứ ngắm nhìn những ai anh thích, cứ nghĩ đến những gì anh từng có. Nhưng xin một điều, hãy biết hiện tại, có một lần anh đã gần như mất em!
La iglesia de la Porciúncula es un templo religioso de culto católico dedicada a la Porciúncula (lugar donde comenzó el movimiento Franciscano) en la ciudad de Bogotá, en Colombia. Esta iglesia está sita en la Calle 72, en pleno corazón financiero de la capital de Colombia.
En los actuales terrenos de La Porciúncula se construyó originalmente en 1919 una casa para hermanos Franciscanos y que además sirviera como colegio de teología y Filosofía. En octubre de 1923 llegaron los primeros frailes a habitar la construcción.
En febrero de 1924 llegan los primeros estudiantes de Teología al nuevo convento que de aquí en adelante se llamaría La Porciúncula, en recuerdo del santuario de Asís, Italia. La obra fue terminada en 1943. La Iglesia de la Porciúncula fue denominada parroquia el 12 de marzo de 1942 por el Arzobispo de Bogotá.
En 1980 los estudiantes fueron transladados y desde entonces la Porciúncula dejó de ser Casa de Estudios y quedó como parroquia unicamente.
De estilo neogótico, destacan sus torres puntiagudas laterales, el rosetón, los sencillos ornamentos que revisten los muros y los arcos ojivales de los portones. Hay enormes vitrales en el interior que representan, en su mayoría, imágenes de santos franciscanos.

The European Balloon Festival is the largest hot air balloon festival in Spain and one of the largest in Europe.[1] It takes place every year during the first fortnight of July in Igualada, Catalonia, Spain, a city located within 60 km from Barcelona.
The festival lasts four days (Thursday to Sunday) and attracts thousands of spectators. It includes a hot air balloon competition and recreational exhibitions such as a night glow and fireworks. The flights take place early in the morning and late in the afternoon, when weather conditions are the optimal ones. It also offers visitors the opportunity to fly on a balloon, by booking a flight in advance.
The festival is organized by the Igualada City Council, with technical support from the company Ultramagic, the world's second largest manufacturer of hot air balloons, and Kon-Tiki Balloon Flights, a company specialized in balloon flights.
"Let's take the train to anywhere
I wanna feel the wind in my hair with you.
Let's tell them all, that soon they'll know
How very wrong they were to think we'd never go,
And if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine
And we will clean the cobwebs out of one another's minds. "
DON'T EVER - Missy Higgins
Taken on the way back from a recent road trip to Rolleston - weather was miserable the whole 4 days prior. As usual with my luck the sun came out the day we drove home. After seeing these Sunflowers on the way up we quickly pulled over when we drove past on the return trip.

Name: Miseuron
Species: Makuta
Occupation: Captain to the Corrupted Crown
Titles: The Mind Machine, The Machine with No Touch
Alignment: Evil
Personality: He is calculated, cold, intelligent. He relies on his knowledge and his love for secrets to gain the upper hand
Element: Shadow
Side Powers: Unmatched telekinetic prowess, 42 Rahkshi powers
Kanohi: Avsa
Weapons: None
Backstory:
Miseuron is a dear ally to the Corrupted Crown. During the early years of the Corrupted Crowns plans to rule over Aeos, he was involved in mortal combat with Toa Raphael. Toa Raphael, being a very adept Toa of gravity, was able to match Miseuron’s telekinetic ability to a point. The battle left Miseuron in a fatal state. Left forsaken on a concrete bridge, the Corrupted Crown recovered him before he could breathe his last breath. The Corrupted Crown worked with his allies to preserve Miseuron’s vitality, producing for him a suit that could give him constant life support and essential needs for life. Without this suit, Miseuron would surely perish from his wounds. Ironically enough, this protosteel prison had also released a new potential in his telekinetic abilities, increasing them tenfold. His new telekinetic abilities let him repel the strongest of blasts, the heaviest of objects, and the most powerful of foes. Miseuron is not usually one for revenge, but he secretly waits for the day that he can eliminate his rival, Toa Raphael, and leave his body to rot in stone.

V lednu 2025 se uskutečnilo několik nočních výluk, zaměřených na geoprůzkum, které si vyžádaly zastavení provozu přes stanici Praha-Holešovice. Nákladní doprava tak byla odkloněna přes Negrelliho viadukt a opatření si vyžádala i dálková doprava. Vzhledem k tomu, že výluka začala ve 21:35, musel dopravce ČD, a.s. odklonit vlaky R 619 a 670 na Masarykovo nádraží. Naskytla se tak ojedinělá a krátká příležitost vyfotografovat vlaky v klasické soupravě v této stanici, která pomalu prochází velkou modernizací. Významným omezením pro provoz a cestující se stane srpen 2025, kdy dojde k uzavření nástupišť 3, 4 a 5. Na snímku z 26. ledna 2025 byla krátce před půlnocí ve zcela prázdné stanici zvěčněna lokomotiva 151.023 při posunu od nástupiště na viadukt, odkud úvratí odjela na odstavné nádraží.
Saint-Jeannet a l'apparence de tous ces villages perchés, si nombreux en Provence et dans le comté de Nice, qui répondaient jadis à un souci de protection. Largement ensoleillé et protégé des vents du nord, il offre un panorama grandiose jusqu'à la mer.
Blotti au pied de son célèbre Baou, "rocher" en provençal, le village est resté authentique et plein de charme. Le vieux Saint-Jeannet, qui s'agrippe à une pente abrupte, est parcouru de ruelles tortueuses, souvent en pente - les calades - et de nombreuses impasses et placettes.
