When a man has big problems he should turn to a child; it is they, in one way or another, who possess the dream and freedom.

With the weather causing problems on other lines,the Scotsman tour was re-routed over Shap.There was no point setting off until we could confirm what was happening so we only had a few minutes to spare and no time to walk into the preferred option at Shap Summit.Here,the light was just round but there was a very strong wind with some east in it.I took a chance the exhaust might lift but with the diesel shoving hard that didn't happen.Oh well,the joys of steam photography - much easier for the freight shot alongside !

Thank you in advance for every group recognition, awards and every beautiful comment sprinkled over my page

El primer problema cuando se planteó hacer una Urraca en vuelo era la dificultad de los cambios de color. Tres cambios de color conseguidos después, queda claro que lo importante (e "imposible") es conseguir que la Urraca sea Urraca y no golondrina, Aguila ..

Se hizo lo q se pudo..esto ya es demasiado para mi. Paso el turno al experto :P

Nota: plegar bien y hacer una foto buena.. Ya sería demasiado :P

Despite the problems with the computer,

Have a lot of pictures taken lately.

I have a big backlog with figuring out,

edit, selecting and place!

Go place older and newer photos on Flickr.

Ondanks de problemen met de computer,

heb ik toch veel foto's gemaakt.

heb dus een flinke achterstand met uitzoeken,

bewerken en posten!

Ga wat oudere en nieuwe foto's door elkaar plaatsen op Flickr.

Looking @ the eye, I think this Hare is blind or sight seriously affected. Sitting near the road in sunshine but made no movement when I stopped near by

Downtown drug problems

Swara Lannock's tail lashed back and forth behind him slowly as he unknowingly drew that rough, pink tongue across his dark hued lips. Battered and nicked ears flicked at the voices that rose up from below, listening intently to what he could catch of the conversation as he continued to keep that unflinching stare of rust colored eyes fixed on Guin. He wondered for a moment about her reaction if she would spot him perched up here...he wasn't trying to hide any longer. Spotted fingers drifted to his belt again to pull out another small object, this time dropping it straight down below him where it would land with a dull crack. His head tilting to one side curiously.

Sebastian Ricks tilts his head. "They're the rooster crowing on top of the dungheap, bonita. Or they think they are. Makes them want to strut. Not surprised they're visiting the church. From what I know of the UAC, they don't like it when their playthings get away. Or forget their place." The soft clatter behind him makes him turn. He glances at the floor, then casually lifts his eyes to the balcony above. "Oh look, bonita," he drawls. "A furry cockroach."

Guinevere Fouroux's lips twist in a dry smile, rather enjoying the image of UAC soldiers as preening roosters... she only wishes they were so powerless. "Nothing but bullies," she mutters, but before she can say anything else something drops to the carpet behind him. Her eyes drop, brow furrowing, and she steps closer to it as she sees Bastian look up. Crouching, she reaches out with tentative fingers, then draws back sharply. "It's a bone," she whispers, then follows his gaze. Her breath catches. White... white and gray, and it's all she remembers. Everything and nothing. She stumbles back, back to her feet, eyes on the balcony. "I think... " She swallows, and blinks rapidly. "I think that's him... "

Sebastian Ricks steps past Guin. He rolls the bone toward him with his boot, then crouches with absent grace to pick it up. "Finger bone," he clarifies. It vanishes into his pocket as if it had never been. "The one who bit you?" he asks, cocking his head to eye the cat perched over their heads. With a cold, bright grin, he straightens and gives the cat a mocking wave. "Hey there, ese. Back for seconds?"

Swara Lannock's mouth drew into a wide wolfish grin as she looked up, two thick carnivorous fangs peeking out from beneath his upper lip, not the type of fangs you would expect on a neko, these were made distinctly big cat incisors. His tail swayed wildly, enough so that the tip would be seen swinging up from behind the low wall he perched on. It was apparent he gained far too much amusement from the woman's reaction. He watched with curious eyes as the finger bone was scooped up and deposited away like some trinket..his trinket to be exact. "You smell, delicious...ape" he murred in a playful, yet dangerous tone. The male's words didn't go unheard, he just chose to let them go unanswered for now.

Sebastian Ricks folds his arms over his chest in a flutter of black lace cuffs. "Eh, bonita, what are you gonna do? Like being chased down by a rabid dog, hey?" He watches the cat with a sly smile. "Just a dumb animal. Don't know no better."

L’architetto Paolo Portoghesi ha presentato al pubblico un’opera pittorica donata al Comune di Montefalco da Luigi Frappi, uno degli ultimi paesaggisti di valore viventi. Pochi se ne sono accorti, sebbene l’evento si collocasse in seno alla Settimana Enologica e coincidesse con un incontro di studio sul paesaggio, puntualmente disertato da imprenditori edili, architetti, geometri e amministratori locali, ma non da Lamberto Bottini, diligente assessore all’Ambiente e allo Sviluppo Sostenibile della Regione Umbria. Il degrado del territorio è un problema che coinvolge drammaticamente l’intero Paese. Per quanto riguarda la nostra regione mi hanno lasciato perplesso le benevole parole di Berlusconi pronunciate tra le selve di Melezzole, anche se queste hanno avuto il merito di promuovere attraverso i media la natura dell'Umbria, in particolare quella delle sue zone ancora incontaminate. In verità la situazione più a valle, dove briga la lobby del mattone, non è incoraggiante. Il territorio è qualcosa di diverso dalla semplice addizione di tutte le componenti visibili, ed esige un’accurata sottigliezza interpretativa per rivelare la sua vera dimensione. A Montefalco, Portoghesi ha riflettuto a lungo intorno alla necessità di comprendere le ragioni del paesaggio, prendendo spunto da un’antinomia dei valori mutuata dall’opera di Heidegger, secondo il quale l’epoca del Pensiero Meditante ha lasciato il posto a quella del Pensiero Calcolante. L’uomo del nostro tempo fugge davanti al Pensiero Meditante, che richiede uno sforzo particolare e come tale non può considerarsi immediato, né in grado di confrontarsi adeguatamente con le urgenze che la nostra epoca presenta. Così l’umanità, in balìa del Pensiero Calcolante, si mostra impreparata a comprendere il radicale mutamento del mondo che avviene sotto i nostri occhi. Uno dei criteri per misurare l’evoluzione raggiunta dalla civiltà è rappresentato, appunto, dall’indagine sulla qualità dell’architettura e sulle scelte urbanistiche adottate, che devono confrontarsi con il rispetto del paesaggio culturale; la sua manomissione si risolve, infatti, in una perdita d’identità e di memoria. La pittura di Frappi – e in particolare l’opera donata a Montefalco - riflette l’identità simbolica e culturale della regione. L’artista, nel proporci la sua Umbria, denuncia lo stravolgimento e il degrado di vedute millenarie ormai prive di sensibilità estetica e fisionomica, sempre meno capaci di far scattare la scintilla dell’attrazione e dunque dell’amore e del rispetto, ma anche della domanda turistica: la sola, in definitiva, ad aumentare il reddito delle popolazioni locali in modo diffuso e durevole. Chi si affaccia oggi dalla Ringhiera dell’Umbria fatica a individuare Trevi, Spello, Assisi, Bevagna, Campello e Cannara. La città di Foligno si è trasformata in un abitato incoerente, con la sua periferia caotica e accerchiante, senza identità alcuna. Nessuno pretende certo di tornare ai tempi in cui la Valle Umbra era quella affrescata dal Gozzoli nel celebre dipinto in cui Francesco parla agli uccelli; ma vale la pena chiedersi cosa rimarrà di questi luoghi tra venti o trent’anni, se non saremo in grado di darci strumenti normativi capaci di preservarci dall’arido dispotismo del Pensiero Calcolante – sempre a breve termine - e dalle operazioni di contabilità della distruzione. La sensazione che si avverte è quella di un generale spaesamento: di una perdita di luogo. Gli umbri - cui non è toccata in sorte la linea piatta del mare, né il profilo dissolto della Padania - non possono rinunciare ai capisaldi, ben piantati nello spazio simbolico delle loro valli. Hanno bisogno di ancorarsi a punti costantemente stabiliti, che gli appartengono dalla nascita, anzi, dal concepimento. Tutto questo sta scritto nell’opera geofilosofica di Frappi, rivelatrice del tormento creativo dell’artista, e insieme del disagio dell’uomo, che si sforza di riconoscere l’orientamento estetico dello spazio in cui vive e di coglierne l’espressività simbolica. Come Berlusconi, Frappi preferisce vedere le cose a modo suo: ignora volutamente la crisi dell’agricoltura tipica, l’aumento del traffico, la devastazione del verde, gli insediamenti sparsi. Evidentemente l’artista, che vive secondo una tentazione del bello, nutre antipatia per una certa umanità: quella che mal si concilia con lo spirito delle proprie opere, con la sua sensibilità al paesaggio. E così, a modo suo, Frappi compie una ridefinizione critica dell’identità culturale. Ma Berlusconi non è Frappi, e l’Umbria non è Arcore. Al Presidente del Consiglio, mancato ragazzo della Via Gluck, non sarà sfuggito, dal rifugio di Melezzole, che l’ubriacatura edilizia scardina – in Umbria forse più che altrove - il senso dei luoghi. Non sarà neanche sfuggito che il territorio è tempo lungo, sedimento, decantazione incompatibile con il mutamento repentino, senso comunitario, avvedutezza, pietas, adesione al genius loci; mentre le operazioni immobiliari - apprezzate dalla destra, ma non disdegnate a sinistra - stanno imponendo accelerazioni acriticamente asservite a un solo scopo: svuotare i paesi e a spargere abitati su quelle stesse valli che Frappi si ostina a dipingere e che il Pensiero Calcolante si compiace di distruggere, assecondando una nuova ondata di speculazione diffusa. Com’è possibile che si continui a costruire mentre nelle città italiane ci sono un numero smisurato di appartamenti vuoti? In questi giorni, cinque giovani creativi di Milano, hanno lanciato l'idea della spiaggia virtuale: una terapia antistress, con la prospettiva di realizzare centri nelle più grandi metropoli italiane ed europee, capaci di ricreare uno scenario virtuale a trecentosessanta gradi di pannelli che mostrano immagini continue di luoghi marini sempre diversi, attorno ad un'isola di sabbia vera, attrezzata con vasche di acqua salata dove potersi immergere accarezzati da brezze virtuali, rapiti da odori salmastri e rassicurati dal grido dei gabbiani. Siamo arrivati ai tentativi virtuali per sconfiggere lo stress, illudendoci di aver trascorso una settimana alle Maldive o a Skiatos. E pensare che l’’Umbria non avrebbe bisogno di tali scenari polisensoriali che mutano a ogni seduta, se solo ponesse maggiore alla difesa dei suoi paesaggi naturali. Che il presidente Berlusconi abbia voluto intendere questo con la sua gratificante esternazione ?

Due to a significant derailment the prior evening in Valley Falls yard the Providence and Worcester's nightly Worcester to Davisville road train never made it to its destination. The power and head 10 cars in front of the six (out of 61 total on the train) that derailed were cut was cut away and pulled up here south of the Blackstone River bridge and north of the Hunt Street crossing at about MP 5.6 on the historic original mainline. The power consists of three units GE B40-8W 4005 and B40-8 4001 bracketing EMD GP38 2006 the lead two still dressed in the classic scheme of the independent pre Genesee and Wyoming P&W.

Cuenta la leyenda, ...., que durante la conquista del espacio se tuvieron que resolver múltiples problemas técnicos, entre ellos como hacer anotaciones y escribir en ausencia de gravedad. La NASA encargo la solución a una prestigiosa firma de estilográficas y bolígrafos que gasto un dineral en el desarrollo de un bolígrafo con tinta especial presurizada. Mientras, los rusos,......, repartieron lapices, ..... Cuenta la leyenda.

Tara went exploring with me to a small pond nearby.

Ahem. Tara has asked me to kindly say a word about his weight problem. There is no problem. He is just fine. He is fat just like an NFL linebacker is fat. It's all muscle. Don't believe it? Just stick your hand down there to pet him and watch him rip it off! He says he can run faster, climb higher and catch mice better tha ever and he challenges any cat to challenge him. So there. Enough with the fat comments. (Now maybe he will give me my arm back. It's tough typing with only one hand!)

Rabbits were introduced to New Zealand in the 1840s for food and sport but as there were no predators they soon became a pest, reaching plague proportions in some areas. I was told to look for a huge rabbit in this Wellington garden and sure enough ...

.....with a long and sharp beak design (see one image earlier) is that food has to be swallowed whole.

Interesting facts: The Great Blue Heron is the largest N.American heron.

Average size : L 46"(117cm) with a wingspan of 72"(183 cm.).

Lewis's blue flax - Linum lewisii - was collected on July 9, 1806 in Montana by Lewis and Clark on their great expedition west. It was named for Meriwether Lewis and is a native perennial wildflower that's about thumbnail in size.

Various native peoples used flax for cordage and string, as well as for mats, snowshoes, fishing nets and baskets. The blue flax plant also had medicinal uses and was employed as a poultice for swellings, as an infusion for eye problems and gastrointestinal distress and as a wash for the body and hair. Sacagawea's Shoshone people used flax in this way. Several native tribes of the upper Missouri River region used flax seed as food because of its nutritive value and flavor.

Had some problems with light on this set. Too hot one side and too cool the other and from the front etc. Never been an issue with the smaller figures. A bit later on I pulled the left hand light further and further away and pushed the right hand light closer which seemed to help. White clothing can be a pain to photograph!

Ele é um dos talismãs mais populares no Japão por ser símbolo de sorte e proteção.Nem sempre ele desperta simpatia. O problema é que, no imaginário popular, gato preto não traz boas vibrações.

“Eu não passo perto de gato, também quando eu vejo gato eu fico longe, principalmente quando é preto dá azar, muito azar”, diz uma senhora.

Coisas da cultura ocidental. Lá no oriente é exatamente o contrário.

“Gato, gato gosta. Gato ajuda, né !?”, diz um japonês.

Descendente de japoneses, Lídia adotou um gato preto como bicho de estimação.

“Isso é uma coisa mística do Brasil. Eu acho que as pessoas teriam que se aprofundar um pouquinho mais para ver que isso não é verdade quem disse que uma coisinha dessa dá azar. Não dá azar, ele dá é trabalho porque tem que alimentar, dar carinho”, diz Lídia Kamimura, assistente administrativo.

Os orientais gostam tanto de gatos que transformaram o bichinho em talismã. É o Manekineko, o gato de patinha levantada que não dá trabalho nenhum.

Existem várias lendas que explicam a origem do manekineko. Uma das mais antigas conta a história de um samurai salvo por um gato.

Surpreendido por uma tempestade, o guerreiro se abrigou debaixo de uma árvore. Ao ver o gato com a pata dianteira levantada, como se fosse um chamado, o samurai deixou o refúgio. Naquele mesmo momento, um raio atingiu a árvore.

Desde então, para os japoneses gato com a pata levantada é símbolo de sorte e proteção.

“É como se fosse o nosso saci-pererê, é uma coisa típica do Japão, não vai encontrar em nenhum outro lugar do oriente”, diz Roque Nishida, pesquisador oriental.

O manekineko é um amuleto obrigatório nas lojas do bairro da Liberdade. Há quem diga que a patinha levantada também serve para convidar a freguesia a entrar, mas muita gente compra o talismã para colocar em casa mesmo.

E tem um outro detalhe: nem sempre o gatinho tem a mesma pata levantada. Dizem por aqui que a direita atrai dinheiro, fortuna e a esquerda freguesia, sorte nos negócios. Na dúvida, por que não levar os dois?

Agora, bom mesmo é ganhar um de presente. Desde a inauguração da padaria, um gatinho desses, legítimo, ocupa um lugar estratégico e tem recompensado o esforço de Memi Guo.

“Acho que isso que está dando sorte pra mim e tem que lutar, tem que trabalhar, sem trabalhar sem fazer esforço não vai. Já dei alguns de presente e está dando sucesso pra todo mundo”, diz Memi Guo, dona da padaria.

Here faced with a vintage photo, the old problem of : too many cars in Venice. Which has always gripped the splendid city of Venice.

I recently took a trip to land between the lakes national recreation area in Kentucky. A nature station there houses animals that for various reasons cannot be released to the wild. Two beautiful coyotes occupied one enclosure. One seemed very tame and came close to the fence. This one was very shy and reticent, although he looks a little more stern in this shot. It's so wonderful to see wildlife this close, but I was glad there was a fence between us.

One for the money, two for the show

I never was ready, so I watch you go

Sometimes you just don't know the answer

'Til someone's on their knees and asks you

"She would've made such a lovely bride

What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said

But you'll find the real thing instead

She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred

And hold your hand while dancing

Never leave you standing

Crestfallen on the landing

With champagne problems
