À l'origine, le panama se fabriquait exclusivement en feuilles de bombanaxa, mais cette matière fragile fut abandonnée avec la popularisation mondiale du chapeau.
La matière première utilisée est la feuille de Carludovica palmata, appelée paja toquilla, une espèce de palmiers poussant en Équateur. Les Équatoriens préfèrent parler de sombrero fino de paja toquilla plutôt que de panama. Après la récolte, les cœurs de palmes sont transportés à dos de mulets jusqu’aux villages, où la palme est divisée en fibres fines. Il existe deux traitements de la fibre : à Cuenca, la paille est bouillie pour éliminer la chlorophylle alors qu'à Montecristi, elle est séchée au soleil et blanchie à la fumée de soufre. Puis les artisans procèdent au tissage qui peut durer jusqu'à huit mois.
En 2009, l'Institut équatorien de la propriété intellectuelle reconnaît l'appellation d'origine contrôlée du panama. En 2012, l'Unesco l'inscrit au patrimoine culturel immatériel de l'humanité.

Many people live in their own little world and ignore the big problems like climate protection, war and social injustice!

Massive Attack - Protection

This girl I know needs some shelter
She don't believe anyone can help her
She's doing so much harm
Doing so much damage
But you don't want to get involved
You tell her she can manage
And you can't change the way she feels
But you could put your arms around her
I know you want to live yourself
But could you forgive yourself
If you left her just the way you found her
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
You're a boy and I'm a girl
But you know you can lean on me
And I don't have no fear
I'll take on any man here
Who says that's not the way it should be
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
She's a girl and you're a boy
Sometimes you look so small, you look so small
I've got a baby of your own
When your baby's grown, she'll be the one
To catch you when you fall
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow, protection
You're a girl and I'm a boy
You're a girl and I'm a boy yeah

My daily work is as a building manager in sprinkler systems. I have therefore never looked at sprinkler nozzles as anything else than what it is, a resting and passive local firefighter, ready for action. But then I was wrong, again :-)

When I got up close to him I saw that he had a nut that he was keeping really close. He wasn't going to let that one get away.
Seed pods of a variety of Allamanda cathartica (Schottii), a yellow flowering creeper from my sub-tropical Gold Coast garden. The green seed pods are soft but gradually brown and harden. The spikes are needle sharp, believe me!

A peregrine falcon returns to its nest on a rocky cliff overlooking the Potomac River. It's an ideal hideout, despite the noise from passing freight trains.
Protection, present and past, in the form of moorings for the fishing boats protected by the harbour wall from bad weather and the remains of a castle on the hilltop that once provided security against unwelcome human attention. The new and old lifeboat stations show a history of protection for the fishermen that is able to extend out to sea when needed.
