"Here on the pulse of this new day
You may have the grace to look up and out
And into your sister's eyes,
Into your brother's face, your country
And say simply
Very simply
With hope
Good morning."
~ a part of Maya Angelou's poem The Rock Cries Out to Us Today

The pulse suit was developed as a frame to navigate difficult tarrain with ease. It long cannon arms are as integral to it's movement as it's mono wheel. The arms help balance the machine in tight corners and can be used as a vaulting device to make the suit airborn. Used mostly be rebels in the Quinztar quadrant becuase of the simplicity of production.
Doing a lot of mainly monochromatic colorschemes lately - this mono-wheel idea has been done before and will be done again. This is just one of my takes on it. Of course I had to remove the fig's arms - the rest of him is in there though. Kind-of a crap build just to build, but here it is.

Pulsion de Vie?
Ben oui....elle est toujours là bien en moi cette pulsion de vie. Elle n'est pas dans mes yeux mais elle est là au fond de mon coeur. Flamme encore allumée qui croit fermement que la maladie n'est que passagère.

Hier, un premier pas de nommer publiquement...La lourdeur sur les épaules s'en trouve diminuée...
Et je disais que même faire de la photo est plus difficile. Et pourtant la photo a si souvent été un outil thérapeutique pour moi. Avant la photo, j'aipassé ma vie à chercher un moyen d'exprimer ma créativité: écriture, travaux manuels, dessin, peinture...Mais c'est avec la photo que j'ai trouvé.
Et je ne veux pas mettre de côté de médium d'expression.
Alors sans en faire un projet très cadré qui me met de la pression sur les épaules (genre 365), je vais tenter de l'utiliser pour partager un peu de moi dans comment je me sens à travers mon parcours dans la maladie.
Ce sera probablement avant tout une démarche d'honnêteté face à moi-même. Et qui sait ou ça pourrait mener plus tard?

New Pulse (WT)
The 68th UN General Assembly has declared 2016 the International Year of Pulses (IYP).
"The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has been nominated to facilitate the implementation of the Year in collaboration with Governments, relevant organizations, non-governmental organizations and all other relevant stakeholders.
What are pulses and why are they important?
Pulses are annual leguminous crops yielding between one and 12 grains or seeds of variable size, shape and colour within a pod, used for both food and feed. The term “pulses” is limited to crops harvested solely for dry grain, thereby excluding crops harvested green for food, which are classified as vegetable crops, as well as those crops used mainly for oil extraction and leguminous crops that are used exclusively for sowing purposes (based on the definition of “pulses and derived products” of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations).
Pulse crops such as lentils, beans, peas and chickpeas are a critical part of the general food basket. Pulses are a vital source of plant-based proteins and amino acids for people around the globe and should be eaten as part of a healthy diet to address obesity, as well as to prevent and help manage chronic diseases such as diabetes, coronary conditions and cancer; they are also an important source of plant-based protein for animals. "
—FAO, 2016.
*****************
"The General Assembly,
Noting that pulses are annual leguminous crops yielding between 1 and 12 grains or seeds of variable size, shape and colour within a pod, used for both food and feed, and that the term “pulses” is limited to crops harvested solely for dry grain, thereby excluding crops harvested green for food, which are classified as vegetable crops, as well as those crops used mainly for oil extraction and leguminous crops that are used exclusively for sowing purposes;
Noting also that pulse crops such as lentils, beans, peas and chickpeas are a critical source of plant-based proteins and amino acids for people around the globe, as well as a source of plant-based protein for animals;
Recalling that the World Food Programme and other food aid initiatives use pulses as a critical part of the general food basket;
Desiring to focus attention on the role that pulses play as part of sustainable food production aimed towards food security and nutrition;
Recognizing that pulses are leguminous plants that have nitrogen-fixing properties which can contribute to increasing soil fertility and have a positive impact on the environment;
Recognizing also that health organizations around the world recommend eating pulses as part of a healthy diet to address obesity, as well as to prevent and help manage chronic diseases such as diabetes, coronary conditions and cancer;
Believing that such a celebration would create a unique opportunity to encourage connections throughout the food chain that would better utilize pulse-based proteins, further global production of pulses, better utilize crop rotations and address the challenges in the trade of pulses;
Affirming the need to heighten public awareness of the nutritional benefits of pulses and to further sustainable agriculture;
Decides to declare 2016 the International Year of Pulses."
—Resolution adopted by the General Assembly on 20 December 2013.

All year the flax-dam festered in the heart
Of the townland; green and heavy headed
Flax had rotted there, weighted down by huge sods.
Daily it sweltered in the punishing sun.
Bubbles gargled delicately, bluebottles
Wove a strong gauze of sound around the smell.
There were dragon-flies, spotted butterflies,
But best of all was the warm thick slobber
Of frogspawn that grew like clotted water
In the shade of the banks. Here, every spring
I would fill jampotfuls of the jellied
Specks to range on window-sills at home,
On shelves at school, and wait and watch until
The fattening dots burst into nimble-
Swimming tadpoles. Miss Walls would tell us how
The daddy frog was called a bullfrog
And how he croaked and how the mammy frog
Laid hundreds of little eggs and this was
Frogspawn. You could tell the weather by frogs too
For they were yellow in the sun and brown
In rain.
Then one hot day when fields were rank
With cowdung in the grass the angry frogs
Invaded the flax-dam; I ducked through hedges
To a coarse croaking that I had not heard
Before. The air was thick with a bass chorus.
Right down the dam gross-bellied frogs were cocked
On sods; their loose necks pulsed like sails. Some hopped:
The slap and plop were obscene threats. Some sat
Poised like mud grenades, their blunt heads farting.
I sickened, turned, and ran. The great slime kings
Were gathered there for vengeance and I knew
That if I dipped my hand the spawn would clutch it.
