Peripheral and maritime regions in the Mediterranean have outlined their key political priorities, including the need for a coordinated strategy to deal with the deepening migration crisis, the importance of a reformed Europe built on solidarity and cohesion, and the necessity for multilevel Mediterranean cooperation.
The priorities were presented by Mediterranean member regions at the Annual General Assembly of the Intermediterranean Commission (IMC) of the Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions (CPMR), held in Naples, Italy, on 6-7 July. A political declaration was released addressing all the main challenges and including specific recommendations.
As well as politicians from the IMC’s regions, the high-profile meeting also brought together representatives from the European Commission’s Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG Mare), the Union for the Mediterranean, EU Mediterranean cooperation programmes, and networks of universities and local authorities.
During the meeting the Intermediterranean Commission (IMC) was presented with a renowned Mediterranean award by the Fondazione Mediterraneo, for its work supporting cohesion and regional development in the Mediterranean.

A close up of a headphone jack. I used another lens in front of the camera. Since it's not an SLR, I had to use my fingers to hold the lens. I hope I've avoided distortions.

The only preserved Romanesque sacred building in the Saarland
St. Peter was erected as a monastery church around 1200 by Wadgasser Premonstratensian canons, who came to Merzig as successors of the Augustinian canons. The layout shows a three-aisled basilica with a transept, chancel peripheral towers, side-apses and a western single tower. The gothic cross-vault ornamented with heraldry was not put in until the 16th century. In the course of a renovation in the 60s of the last century, the nave was extended to the west around the Mary Chapel, while the southern side nave was given a new entrance hall. Special architectural attention deserve the two north portals, the small "cemetery portal" at the transept and the larger main and lay portal at the side ship. In the course of the extensive external restoration of St. Peter, completed in December 2004, the former main portal was reopened in the west tower.
In the interior of St. Peter the visitor can see a large number of cultic works, especially from the Baroque period. The Christ, Mary and the 12 apostles, who were made around 1700 by Wolfgang Stupeler, are particularly worth mentioning. Also worth seeing is the 17th-century Pietà in the side chapel in the northern transept. Further attention-getters are the high altar with the crowning pelican figure around 1738 probably carved by the Saarlouis sculptor Ferdinand Ganal, an early Christian symbol, the stemming from the 4th century Gothic plague cross over the altar, the revolving baptismal font, or the St. Nicholas statue rediscovered and restored just a few years ago. In extensive reconstruction work in 1984/85, the paintings by the Merzig painter Heinrich Klein, which had been coated in the framework of the Second Vatican Council, were also exposed, the latter one has made them in the style of the Nazarene school after models of Eduard von Steinle.
As the most important building in our city and the only preserved Romanesque sacred building in the state of Saarland, characterises the parish church of St. Peter most of all for those coming from the east from the direction of Brotdorf the image of the core city. In spite of the many changes that St. Peter has undergone during the course of his long history through fire catastrophes, war destructions or transformations in the style of the particular zeitgeist, the church has, apart from the Westbau (west wing), kept its original shape.
Einziger erhaltener romanischer Sakralbau im Saarland
St. Peter wurde um 1200 von Wadgasser Prämonstratenserchorherren, die als Nachfolger der Augustinerchorherren 1182 nach Merzig gekommen waren, als Klosterkirche errichtet. Der Grundriss zeigt eine dreischiffige Basilika mit Querhaus, Chornebentürmen, Nebenapsiden und einem westlichen Einzelturm. Das wappenverzierte gotische Kreuzgewölbe wurde erst im 16. Jahrhundert nach einem Brand eingezogen. Im Zuge einer Renovierung in den 60er Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts wurde das Nordseitenschiff um die Marienkapelle nach Westen verlängert, während das südliche Seitenschiff eine neue Eingangshalle erhielt. Besondere architektonische Aufmerksamkeit verdienen die beiden Nordportale, das kleine "Friedhofsportal" am Querhaus und das größere Haupt- und Laienportal am Seitenschiff. Im Zuge der im Dezember 2004 abgeschlossenen umfangreichen Außensanierung von St. Peter wurde das frühere Hauptportal im Westturm wieder geöffnet.
Im Innern von St. Peter erwartet den Besucher eine große Zahl kultischer Kunstwerke, vor allem aus der Zeit des Barock. Besonderes zu erwähnen sind beispielsweise die Christus, Maria und die 12 Apostel darstellenden Figuren, die um 1700 von Wolfgang Stupeler gefertigt wurden. Sehenswert ist auch die aus dem 17. Jahrhundert stammende Pietà in der Nebenkapelle im Nordquerhaus. Weitere Blickfänge sind der um 1738 vermutlich von dem Saarlouiser Bildhauer Ferdinand Ganal geschaffene Hochaltar mit der krönenden Pelikanfigur, einem frühchristlichen Symbol, das aus dem 14. Jahrhundert stammende gotische Pestkreuz über dem Altar, die Drehtaufe oder die erst vor wenigen Jahren wiederentdeckte und restaurierte Nikolausstatue. Bei umfangreichen Renovierungsarbeiten im Jahr 1984/85 wurden auch wieder die im Rahmen des II. Vatikanischen Konzils überstrichenen Malereien des Merziger Malers Heinrich Klein freigelegt, der diese nach Vorlagen von Eduard von Steinle im Stil der Nazarener Schule gefertigt hat.
Als das bedeutendste Bauwerk unserer Stadt und einziger erhaltener romanischer Sakralbau im Saarland prägt die Pfarrkirche St. Peter vor allem für die Besucher, die von Osten her aus Richtung Brotdorf kommen, das Bild der Kernstadt. Trotz der vielfältigen Veränderungen, die St. Peter im Lauf seiner langen Geschichte durch Brandkatastrophen, Kriegszerstörungen oder Umgestaltungen im Stile des jeweiligen Zeitgeistes erfahren hat, hat die Kirche, abgesehen vom Westbau, ihre ursprüngliche Gestalt weitgehend behalten.

"... Dear friends, please don't be offended when I unfollow you because you joined in "RT this to win" bullshit. Social spam doesn't scale. ..."
I hate marketing, but...
I'll be up front. I hate marketing, the selling of messages and advertising. But I also know that if you create a product you have to push it into the market to compete in a noisy market place to profit from your hard labour.
Why I don't RT, much
I can't quite put my finger on why I don't RT (re-tweets of twitter messages), but this message by Nat Torkington (a Kiwi and ex-O'Reilly) bluntly sums up why. I'm not quite sure why direct RT (re-tweets of twitter messages) are frowned upon. I suspect it has something to do with the both the individual and something of the free nature of the Internet.
Who is receptive?
Some people are open to receiving unsolicited information, others are not. If you know a person in your physical social network you will have a fair idea if they are receptive. This is not the case in web based social networks.
Why?
Is your online social network filled with associates or casual acquaintance rather than friends? The Web, devoid of any of the physical clues means you have few ways other than direct messages to judge disinterest in your network. The physical feedback loop of approval/disapproval is missing.
Is this the reason for my reluctance to re-tweet direct commercial plugs? The combination of not knowing your what your network as individuals think and the limited feedback mechanisms available, means RT things has an associated degree of risk greater than the favour?
News, Promotion and Spam
The Internet is older than the Web and new users joining the Web in the last five to eight years may not be aware of the historical culture of the web where information, products and ideas are exchanged, sans the influence of traditional marketing. Again loosely associated friending works against you here. By re-tweeting information through your social network you can't be sure if you are alienating or informing?
Depending on who is listening and how long they have been using the Internet, they might interpret your message as spam, self promotion, news or something of value to pass along. It's difficult to tell which? I suspect for the majority of the later twitter users, younger members to the Web simply tune out spam, self promotion as white noise. The older members view it as direct spam much like Nat. Is there a better way?
A better way?
Danah Boyd [0] has suggested that twittering information isn't just mindless babble but a form of "social grooming" and "peripheral awareness". [1] I'd argue that strategic RT use might work for one off uses but continual usage probably has the same effect as inviting friends over a Tupperware party. Every time they view a plastic bowl they think of reasons not to call back. This is hard sell. It doesn't work online as well as the physical world. (bold statement, back it up!)
Working with the grain, not against it
A much better way might be to sell a message, product or idea is by emphasising "peripheral awareness" through conversation not selling directly to your audience. [2] You are not ignoring the medium to sell the message, just using it in a slightly different way. Working with the grain of the Web, not against it.
