Located in the Conde de Agrolongo Square in Braga, the Pópulo Church is one of the Braga churches I like most. This church is part of a larger complex which includes a convent and where the image of the Virgin Mary of Santa Maria del Popolo of Rome is worshiped.

 

Showing several artistic stiles, this church has traces of the mannerist, baroque and neoclassical stiles. In its interior we can see a simple but majestic decoration due to the size of the building, which creates a peaceful felling to those who enter it. We can observe a lot of typical Portuguese tiles with beautiful paintings portraying religious scenes in white and blue.

 

Curiously, this church is connected to two of the most important revolutions in the Portuguese history. One, was the popular revolution of “Maria da Fonte” in 1846 when the population attacked the militaries against the new burial rules, which stated that people had to be buried outside the churches and villages. The second one in 1926 when Gomes da Costa leaded a revolution which established Salazar’s dictatorship that dominated Portugal for 48 years.

 

Its construction started in 1596, but it prolonged from the 16th to the 19th century, but a great part of the project is from the architect Carlos Amarante.

 

In 1834, with the extinction of the religious orders by the new Liberal State, who won the civil war against the Absolutists Rulers this building became property of the Portuguese state, and in 1841 it was transformed into an Infantry Regiment head-quarter. Nowadays the convent area works as part of the Braga City-Hall.

One of the oldest questions in the sport of auto racing is if it is either a team or an individual sport? The correct answer is yes, to both. We know that there is no “I” in team, but the best drivers compete to be #1, which is what makes them the best drivers. Balancing the needs of the team and the personality of the driver behind the wheel is considered to be one of the most difficult jobs in all of professional sports. This Demo Day examined the challenges through the lens of four of the greatest team managers in the history of racing - Ferrari, Neubauer, Wyer, and Shelby. The featured cars for this Demo Day Included: the1933 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza, the 1964 Cobra Daytona Coupe, the 1958 Aston Martin DBR1, and the1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL.

umm.. i was reading qwantz.com and writing a blog about wanting to spend the day cuddling, and then came up with the idea to combine the two things!

Today's question. Just had some fab feedback from the DCD designed 'MetaCard' resource training that took place in Germany last week. One of the key cards in this person centred interviewing toolkit, is the 'shift' card. The shift card is pivotal to the implementation phase of creating personal change.

The Chief Executive's Question Time (2018.07.04)

The Question from DC Infinite Heroes.

Draeke Darkfold leans forward to level a squinted gaze into her features. “You say that but… I’m thinking you like the mean ones. Most women do, really.” He knew this all too well from personal experience and frequent disappointment. He muses silently a moment before sliding easily from the bar in order to stand before her. “Lemme ask you something and really think about the answer, okay?” He tilts his head, very possibly invading her sense of ‘personal space’ due to his sudden proximity. “Let’s say you had two choices…” His voice trails as he graces her with a scrutinizing stare. “One..” He lifts a single digit in emphasis. “I could spin you around, use something to wrap up your wrists, hike up that skirt of yours and bang you over a chair….” Despite the subject matter, he speaks rather matter-of-factly. “Or two..” A second digit is lifted beside the first. “I could take you by the hand, walk you out to the cliffs and serenade you beneath the moonlight."

 

"Which one would it be?"

A simple question, eh? Yet an intricate one! How much of our lifetime we spend to know the way that we should be going to? We choose one, and after some point of time we feel like we walked to a wrong destination. Then, we keep searching the way again until we really know it...

A la veille des fêtes de fin d'année, la situation des millions de mal-logés et sans-abris ne laisse personne indifférent. Il est intolérable qu'en 2010, autant de personnes soient encore contraintes de dormir dans la rue ou dans des logements indécents. Le droit au logement est un droit fondamental reconnu par notre Constitution ainsi que par les conventions internationales comme la Charte Sociale Européenne. La France a donc une obligation de résultat!

C'est cette obligation que j'ai tenu à rappeler au Secrétaire d'Etat chargé du Logement et de l'Urbanisme, M. Benoist Apparu, lors de la dernière séance des Questions au Gouvernement de l'année 2009.

If you stab a vampire through the heart with a piece of bamboo does it count as wood?

 

I know technically it's a grass, but where do you differentiate in mythological beasts?
