Pour ceux qui se questionnent sur son sobriquet, remarquez le nombre de ''V'' dans ce cliché...
Perso, j'en vois trois.
For those who wonder why he was given the name Victor, you will see a number of ''V''s in this image. Personally I see 3.
He looks upset, maybe because I picked up one of the balls he regurgitated for analysis.
Chartreuse du Reposoir, Haute-Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France.
La Chartreuse du Reposoir es una antigua cartuja situada en el territorio del municipio del mismo nombre, en el departamento de Alta Saboya, en la región de Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes.
Situado en el valle del Foron du Reposoir, en un circo boscoso al borde de un pequeño lago, los edificios que bordean el río están dominados por la cadena Reposoir al este y la cadena Bargy al noroeste. El establecimiento fue fundado en 1151 por el Beato Cartujo Juan de España y estuvo ocupado ininterrumpidamente hasta la Revolución Francesa y luego entre 1866 y 1901. La antigua Cartuja alberga una comunidad de monjas carmelitas desde 1932 y hoy se llama Monasterio del Carmelo de Reposoir. La Chartreuse está clasificada como monumento histórico.
La cartuja forma una plaza orientada de oeste a este, y reúne en su recinto lo que originalmente se llamaba la Correrie que estaba separada del monasterio.
El gran claustro rodea todas las casas de los Padres Cartujos; sus bóvedas en forma de silbato penetran los muros sin apoyo. Así llega cada monje a su casa. Las celdas de los Padres constituyen el cuadrado al norte y al sur y lo completan al este. El muro del cerramiento conecta los del norte entre sí; al sur y al este, se desprenden de él. Al pie de cada uno hay un parterre de flores de forma cuadrada. En la pared de enfrente está fijada una gran cruz negra, que el cenobita ve necesariamente cuando mira hacia afuera.
Las celdas se indican con una letra del alfabeto. Al lado de la puerta hay un pequeño portillo donde el solitario viene a recoger sus provisiones. Si necesita otras cosas, sólo tiene que dejar allí una nota con la letra de su celular. La cama tiene forma de armario, la ropa de cama se compone de un gran palet de lona, un almohadón, sábanas y unas cuantas mantas de lana que sustituyen a las de antaño. Junto al lecho se encuentra el oratorio, formado por una sillería y un reclinatorio, donde el monje recita la mayor parte de los servicios.
Al oeste de este claustro se encuentran la iglesia, la sala capitular y el pequeño claustro que data del siglo XVI y restaurado en 1929. Su construcción se atribuye a la generosidad de la Casa de Saboya cuyas armas aparecen entre las dieciséis claves policromadas. Este claustro está formado por cuatro galerías cubiertas que rodean un patio. Cada arcada de arco apuntado que da al patio se subdivide en una red de tres pequeños arcos polibados y tracería flamígera. Los grandes pilares cuadrados, la prohibición sistemática de la decoración escultórica y el rechazo de la vertical dan a este edificio del gótico tardío un aspecto achaparrado, pesado y austero. Las bóvedas de crucería, características de la arquitectura gótica, se basan en dos arcos apuntados que se cruzan en diagonal. Estas bóvedas y arcos están formados por claves, piedras talladas en forma de cuñas, apoyadas unas sobre otras. La clave es la llave central colocada en lo alto de una bóveda y que bloquea las demás piedras en la posición deseada.
La iglesia, cuya primera piedra fue colocada por Aymon I de Faucigny, hermano de Ardutius de Faucigny, obispo de Ginebra, es de estilo ojival. A lo largo del muro norte de la iglesia se encuentran la Capilla del Beato Juan de España (ahora sacristía interior) y la Capilla de San Antonio (hoy sacristía exterior para sacerdotes).
The Chartreuse du Reposoir is a former charterhouse located on the territory of the municipality of the same name, in the Haute-Savoie department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
Located in the valley of the Foron du Reposoir, in a wooded cirque on the edge of a small lake, the buildings bordering the river are dominated by the Reposoir chain to the east and the Bargy chain to the northwest. The establishment was founded in 1151 by the Blessed Carthusian John of Spain and was occupied continuously until the French Revolution and then between 1866 and 1901. The former Carthusian has housed a community of Carmelite nuns since 1932 and today is called the Monastery of the Carmel of Reposoir. La Chartreuse is classified as a historical monument.
The charterhouse forms a square oriented from west to east, and brings together in its enclosure what was originally called the Correrie, which was separated from the monastery.
The great cloister surrounds all the houses of the Carthusian Fathers; Its whistle-shaped vaults penetrate the walls without support. This is how each monk arrives at his house. The cells of the Fathers constitute the square to the north and south and complete it to the east. The enclosure wall connects the northern ones to each other; to the south and east, they detach themselves from it. At the foot of each one is a square flower bed. On the opposite wall is fixed a large black cross, which the Cenobite necessarily sees when he looks out.
Cells are indicated by a letter of the alphabet. Next to the door there is a small gate where the loner comes to collect his supplies. If he needs other things, he just has to leave a note there with the handwriting on his cell phone. The bed is shaped like a wardrobe, the bedding consists of a large canvas pallet, a pillow, sheets and a few wool blankets that replace those of yesteryear. Next to the bed is the oratory, made up of a chair and a kneeler, where the monk recites most of the services.
To the west of this cloister are the church, the chapter house and the small cloister dating from the 16th century and restored in 1929. Its construction is attributed to the generosity of the House of Savoy whose arms appear among the sixteen polychrome keys. This cloister is made up of four covered galleries that surround a patio. Each pointed arch arcade facing the courtyard is subdivided into a network of three small polybate arches and flamboyant tracery. The large square pillars, the systematic prohibition of sculptural decoration and the rejection of the vertical give this late Gothic building a squat, heavy and austere appearance. The cross vaults, characteristic of Gothic architecture, are based on two pointed arches that intersect diagonally. These vaults and arches are formed by keystones, stones carved in the shape of wedges, resting on each other. The key is the central key placed at the top of a vault and which locks the other stones in the desired position.
The church, whose foundation stone was laid by Aymon I de Faucigny, brother of Ardutius de Faucigny, bishop of Geneva, is in the ogival style. Along the north wall of the church are the Chapel of Blessed John of Spain (now the interior sacristy) and the Chapel of Saint Anthony (today the exterior sacristy for priests).
This guy had no chance to mate with any of the cows in the Fishercap Lake area of Glacier National Park. But here he is striding rather purposefully toward a female about 50 yards away. I didn't get to see the rejection as the cow disappeared in some tall willows and he followed her.

Sheikh in the temple complex in Lalish, the holy place of Yazidism.
The Yazidis follow a caste system. Their caste system was updated and revised by Sheikh Adi in the 11th century.
Basically, there are three castes - Murids, Pirs, and Sheikhs. Most Yezidi belong to the Murid class and are just common people without special roles.
The sheikh caste is again divided into different groups. Generally, this sheikh caste is responsible for the spiritual well-being of the community.
Yazidis marry within their own caste, although nowadays some say there is a need to change that rule ( especially the Yazidi that live in Germany and in the west).
This religious man is from the Sheikh cast; he is a Sheikh wazir majlis rohani. ( الشيخ وزير مجلس روحاني )

The Jewish prophet Isaiah described the rejection of the Messiah more than 700 years before He came to Israel:
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes [wounds] we are healed.
(Isaiah 53:3-5)
When He first came, Jesus Christ (the Greek word for 'Messiah') was despised and rejected. Ultimately, He offered Himself as a substitutionary sacrifice to pay the price for our sins. He's coming again as Judge, and only those who believe and trust in Him will be saved:
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
(John 3:18)

My momma always said that you can never win the game if you don't even get in there and try playing! I know my SL Flickr site is a small but decent size one and I've come a long way since some of those early photos I've put together.
So when a giant like Ricielli opens up their blogger list for new bloggers of course I'm going to apply. But I'm a realistic gal and I know my still growing site is decent but not doing the volume that a juggernaut like Ricielli is expecting. However....
I am guessing hundreds applied for those blogger jobs (including myself) with Ricielli. And instead of the typical Blogotex rejection letter, I received a message from Vliet Ricielli along with this hot sexy pink latex lingerie set as a 'Thank you for applying better luck next year' gift. How sweet was that!
So to show my appreciation for the class act that is Ricielli, I decided to blog that sexy little number along with some sparkly gems from Heartsdale Jewelry and furniture from {What Next}. Maybe next year :D

Al ver por primera vez este escarabajo ignoraba cual era su especie.
Me encontraba en una cafetería cuando entró volando por la puerta y se posó en la visera de mi gorra sobre la mesa. Quienes lo vieron reaccionaron con sorpresa y rechazo (alguien mostró incluso signos de fobia). Me gustó su colorido y tomé la foto. Mientras lo hacía una mujer me instaba que lo sacara pronto de allí. Y así lo hice: lo solté en la calle.
Acabo de identificarlo: es un “picudo rojo” (“palm weevil”). Sus larvas son muy perjudiciales para la vida de las palmeras. Debido a esto mi simpatía por el bichito ha disminuido notablemente.
----------------------------------------
When I saw this beetle for the first time, I did not know what its species was.
I was in a coffee shop when it flew through the door and landed on the brim of my cap on the table. Those who saw it reacted with surprise and rejection (someone even showed signs of phobia). I liked its coloring and took the photo. While I was doing it, a woman urged me to get him out of there soon. And so I did: I released it on the street.
I just identified it: it's a “red weevil” (“palm weevil”). Its larvae are very harmful to the life of the palm trees. Because of this, my sympathy for the bug has decreased considerably.
The true identity of the ladies in these paintings still have not been confirmed. There are various ideas about their identity. Some believe that they are the ladies of the king's while others think that they are women taking part in religious observances. These pictures have a close resemblance to paintings seen in the Ajanta caves in India.

Palacio del príncipe Nikolai Konstantinovich Romanov, sobrino del zar Alejandro II, expulsado a Tashkent por robar diamantes del antiguo icono de su madre.
Este edificio está situado en el centro de la capital, no lejos de la plaza Amir Temur y la plaza de la Independencia, en una de las calles principales, en la avenida Sharaf Rashidov.
También conocido como Palacio Romanov, es una elegante y sofisticada casa de una sola planta, hecha de ladrillo gris amarillento quemado. Celosías talladas a cielo abierto, torres decorativas y ventanas de un diseño original lo adornan.
La entrada principal al palacio está "custodiada" por esculturas de perros de tamaño natural, y a ambos lados de la escalera principal hay ciervos de bronce con hermosos cuernos ramificados.
Fue construido en 1891 y se realizó en estilo Art Nouveau, que se caracteriza por el rechazo de los ángulos rectos y las líneas en favor de curvas elegantes y naturales. Se prestó mucha atención a los detalles interiores y su fino procesamiento artístico.
Después de la muerte del príncipe Nikolai Konstantinovich, en 1918, el edificio fue cedido al museo de arte.
The palace of Prince Nikolai Konstantinovich Romanov, nephew of Tsar Alexander II, who was exiled to Tashkent for stealing diamonds from his mother's ancient icon.
This building is located in the heart of the capital, not far from Amir Temur Square and Independence Square, on one of the main streets, Sharaf Rashidov Avenue.
Also known as the Romanov Palace, it is an elegant and sophisticated single-story house, constructed of burnt yellowish-gray brick. Openwork latticework, decorative turrets, and uniquely designed windows adorn it.
The main entrance to the palace is guarded by life-size sculptures of dogs, and on either side of the main staircase are bronze deer with beautifully branched antlers.
It was built in 1891 in the Art Nouveau style, characterized by its rejection of right angles and straight lines in favor of elegant, natural curves. Great attention was paid to the interior details and their fine artistic execution.
After the death of Prince Nikolai Konstantinovich in 1918, the building was given to the art museum.

Das Gebäude wirkt auf den ersten Blick wie eine Moschee, doch es ist keine, und was wie ein Minarett ausschaut ist nur ein gut kaschierter Fabrikschornstein.
Zwischen 1907 und 1909 entstand das Gebäude im Auftrag des Unternehmers Hugo Zietz für seine „Orientalische Tabak- und Cigarettenfabrik Yenidze“, benannt nach dem türkischen Tabak-Anbaugebiet Yenidze, das heute zu Griechenland gehört (rund um die Kleinstadt Giannitsa).
In der Dresdner Innenstadt war es damals verboten, Fabrikgebäude zu errichten, die als solche erkennbar waren. Daher wurde der Architekt Martin Hammitzsch beauftragt, das Werk im Stil einer Moschee zu erbauen – so entsprach der Bau nicht nur den Anforderungen der Stadt, sondern war auch gleichzeitig ein einprägsames Werbemonument für die orientalischen Zigarettenmarken.
Die Aufsehen erregende Architektur der Yenidze bildete von Anfang an einen starken Kontrast zu den Dresdner Barockbauten und stieß zuerst auf heftige Ablehnung. Der Architekt wurde wegen seines Entwurfes sogar aus der Reichsarchitektenkammer ausgeschlossen. Trotz der Anfeindungen erfüllte das Gebäude seinen Werbezweck, und inzwischen ist die Yenidze zu einem der Wahrzeichen der Stadt Dresden geworden. Nach der Wiedervereinigung wurde es originalgetreu saniert und restauriert und dient heute als Bürogebäude, in der Kuppel befinden sich ein Restaurant mit Biergarten auf dem Dach sowie ein Theater.

At first glance the building looks like a mosque, but it is not, and what looks like a minaret is just a well-hidden factory chimney.
The building was built between 1907 and 1909 on behalf of the entrepreneur Hugo Zietz for his “Oriental Tobacco and Cigarette Factory Yenidze”, named after the Turkish tobacco-growing region of Yenidze, which today belongs to Greece (around the small town of Giannitsa).
At that time, it was forbidden to build factory buildings that were recognizable as such in downtown Dresden. Therefore, the architect Martin Hammitzsch was commissioned to build the work in the style of a mosque - so the building not only met the city's requirements, but was also a memorable advertising monument for the oriental cigarette brands.
From the outset, the Yenidze's spectacular architecture formed a strong contrast to Dresden's baroque buildings and was initially met with strong rejection. The architect was even excluded from the Reich Chamber of Architects because of his design. Despite the hostility, the building fulfilled its advertising purpose and the Yenidze has now become one of the landmarks of the city of Dresden. After reunification, it was renovated and restored true to the original and now serves as an office building. The dome houses a restaurant with a beer garden on the roof and a theater.

Una de las ideas que se extendió por Oriente con la expansión del Islam fue la iconoclastia: el rechazo a las imágenes religiosas. En Bizancio, esta corriente estalló en dos episodios violentos durante los siglos VIII y IX, que transformaron templos y conciencias. Basta eso para imaginar la azarosa vida de los mosaicos de Santa Sofía: destruidos, reconstruidos, ocultos tras capas de yeso, rescatados siglos más tarde por restauradores modernos.
Es difícil imaginar el aspecto que tendría este lugar el día de su inauguración, o tras la restauración iconográfica que siguió al segundo periodo iconoclasta. Pero al ver lo que queda —fragmentos dorados que siguen brillando con una luz que no es de este mundo— uno entiende que no estamos solo ante decoración: estamos ante una historia gráfica del alma bizantina.
Quien haya visitado iglesias bizantinas en Rávena o Venecia o Sicilia puede intuir lo que debió de ser Santa Sofía en su plenitud. El mosaico más impresionante debió de ser, sin duda, el Cristo Pantocrátor que presidía la cúpula. Hoy está perdido, pero su recuerdo sobrevive en los cuatro serafines alados que todavía vigilan desde los ángulos del tambor, como testigos de lo que fue y de lo que resistió.
________________________________________________
One of the ideas that spread through the East with the rise of Islam was iconoclasm: the rejection of religious images. In Byzantium, this current erupted in two violent episodes during the 8th and 9th centuries, transforming both temples and minds. That alone gives us a sense of the turbulent life of Hagia Sophia’s mosaics—destroyed, rebuilt, hidden beneath layers of plaster, and eventually rescued by modern restorers centuries later.
It’s hard to imagine what this place looked like on the day of its inauguration, or after the iconographic restoration that followed the second wave of iconoclasm. But when you see what remains—golden fragments still glowing with a light that seems unearthly—you understand that this isn’t just decoration: it’s a visual history of the Byzantine soul.
Anyone who has visited Byzantine churches in Ravenna, Venice, or Sicily can begin to imagine what Hagia Sophia must have been like in its full splendor. The most impressive mosaic was undoubtedly the Christ Pantocrator that once dominated the dome. Today it is lost, but its memory survives in the four winged seraphim that still stand guard in the pendentives—silent witnesses to what once was, and to what endured.

The former Van Nelle Factory (Dutch: Van Nellefabriek) on the Schie river in Rotterdam, is an important historic industrial building in the world.
The buildings were designed by architect Leendert van der Vlugt from the Brinkman & Van der Vlugt office in cooperation with civil engineer J.G. Wiebenga, at that time a specialist for constructions in reinforced concrete, and built between 1925 and 1931. It is an example of Nieuwe Bouwen, modern architecture in the Netherlands.
In the 20th century it was a factory, processing coffee, tea and tobacco and later on additional chewing gum, cigarettes, instant pudding and rice. Currently it houses a wide variety of new media and design companies and is known as the Van Nelle Design Factory ("Van Nelle Ontwerpfabriek" in Dutch). Some of the areas are used for meetings, conventions and events.
The Van Nelle Factory shows the influence of Russian constructivism.
The Van Nelle Factory is a Dutch national monument (Rijksmonument) and in June 2014 it was added to the Unesco list of world heritage sites.

“...to love you in silence…
For in silence I find no rejection,
I choose to love you in loneliness…
For in loneliness no one owns you but me,
I choose to adore you from a distance…
For distance will shield me from pain,
I choose to kiss you in the wind…
For the wind is gentler than my lips,
I choose to hold you in my dreams…
For in my dreams, you have no end.”

Addendum: surprising to see how polarizing this image is. Several rejections from groups whose acceptance criteria match. Multiple invites from groups I hadn’t joined.
Admins are always right about what fits in their groups.

The idea of a national garden in Singapore started in 1822 when Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore and a keen naturalist, developed the first ‘Botanical and Experimental Garden’ at Fort Canning. It was only in 1859 that the Gardens at its present site was founded and laid out in the English Landscape Movement’s style by an Agri-Horticultural society.
The Gardens has been inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015.

Après quelques repas, le martin-pêcheur rejète une boulette de rejection qui contient les restes de repas non digérés.
Bonne journée.

After a few meals, the kingfisher throws up a pellet containing the undigested remains of the meal.
Have a nice day
Thanks for your visits and comments.
algorithmic rejection, nibbling away at my soul, painless pin-prick, shouldn't care, don't really, really don't. three-d to two-d to one-d, then a point, then fade to black, all still there, still there. turn the page, see, still there, still here. still.

Tutti dicono che l'amore fa male.
Non è così.
La solitudine fa male, il rifiuto fa male, perdere qualcuno fa male.
Tutti confondono queste cose con l'amore, ma in realtà ll' amore è l'unica cosa in questo mondo che copre il dolore e che ci fa sentire ancora meravigliosi..
( Oscar Wilde )
Una sera d'estate a Cogoleto, Liguria
Together
Everyone says that love hurts, but that's not true.
Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts.
All these things are confused with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all the pain and makes us feel wonderful again...
No one can blame you
For walking away.
Too much rejection.
No love injection.Down in the underground
You'll find someone true.
Down in the underground;
A land serene;
A crystal moon.

Mom and Dad seem to be quite upset to be visited by the young...but maybe it could be something else. The juvenile eagle flew on to the top perch and the adults went crazy, quite vocal and animated. He stayed for only a couple of minutes and then flew off. I've seen these same eagles in the same spot several times and I assume they are related.
Chartreuse du Reposoir, Haute-Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France.
La Chartreuse du Reposoir es una antigua cartuja situada en el territorio del municipio del mismo nombre, en el departamento de Alta Saboya, en la región de Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes.
Situado en el valle del Foron du Reposoir, en un circo boscoso al borde de un pequeño lago, los edificios que bordean el río están dominados por la cadena Reposoir al este y la cadena Bargy al noroeste. El establecimiento fue fundado en 1151 por el Beato Cartujo Juan de España y estuvo ocupado ininterrumpidamente hasta la Revolución Francesa y luego entre 1866 y 1901. La antigua Cartuja alberga una comunidad de monjas carmelitas desde 1932 y hoy se llama Monasterio del Carmelo de Reposoir. La Chartreuse está clasificada como monumento histórico.
La cartuja forma una plaza orientada de oeste a este, y reúne en su recinto lo que originalmente se llamaba la Correrie que estaba separada del monasterio.
El gran claustro rodea todas las casas de los Padres Cartujos; sus bóvedas en forma de silbato penetran los muros sin apoyo. Así llega cada monje a su casa. Las celdas de los Padres constituyen el cuadrado al norte y al sur y lo completan al este. El muro del cerramiento conecta los del norte entre sí; al sur y al este, se desprenden de él. Al pie de cada uno hay un parterre de flores de forma cuadrada. En la pared de enfrente está fijada una gran cruz negra, que el cenobita ve necesariamente cuando mira hacia afuera.
Las celdas se indican con una letra del alfabeto. Al lado de la puerta hay un pequeño portillo donde el solitario viene a recoger sus provisiones. Si necesita otras cosas, sólo tiene que dejar allí una nota con la letra de su celular. La cama tiene forma de armario, la ropa de cama se compone de un gran palet de lona, un almohadón, sábanas y unas cuantas mantas de lana que sustituyen a las de antaño. Junto al lecho se encuentra el oratorio, formado por una sillería y un reclinatorio, donde el monje recita la mayor parte de los servicios.
Al oeste de este claustro se encuentran la iglesia, la sala capitular y el pequeño claustro que data del siglo XVI y restaurado en 1929. Su construcción se atribuye a la generosidad de la Casa de Saboya cuyas armas aparecen entre las dieciséis claves policromadas. Este claustro está formado por cuatro galerías cubiertas que rodean un patio. Cada arcada de arco apuntado que da al patio se subdivide en una red de tres pequeños arcos polibados y tracería flamígera. Los grandes pilares cuadrados, la prohibición sistemática de la decoración escultórica y el rechazo de la vertical dan a este edificio del gótico tardío un aspecto achaparrado, pesado y austero. Las bóvedas de crucería, características de la arquitectura gótica, se basan en dos arcos apuntados que se cruzan en diagonal. Estas bóvedas y arcos están formados por claves, piedras talladas en forma de cuñas, apoyadas unas sobre otras. La clave es la llave central colocada en lo alto de una bóveda y que bloquea las demás piedras en la posición deseada.
La iglesia, cuya primera piedra fue colocada por Aymon I de Faucigny, hermano de Ardutius de Faucigny, obispo de Ginebra, es de estilo ojival. A lo largo del muro norte de la iglesia se encuentran la Capilla del Beato Juan de España (ahora sacristía interior) y la Capilla de San Antonio (hoy sacristía exterior para sacerdotes).
The Chartreuse du Reposoir is a former charterhouse located on the territory of the municipality of the same name, in the Haute-Savoie department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
Located in the valley of the Foron du Reposoir, in a wooded cirque on the edge of a small lake, the buildings bordering the river are dominated by the Reposoir chain to the east and the Bargy chain to the northwest. The establishment was founded in 1151 by the Blessed Carthusian John of Spain and was occupied continuously until the French Revolution and then between 1866 and 1901. The former Carthusian has housed a community of Carmelite nuns since 1932 and today is called the Monastery of the Carmel of Reposoir. La Chartreuse is classified as a historical monument.
The charterhouse forms a square oriented from west to east, and brings together in its enclosure what was originally called the Correrie, which was separated from the monastery.
The great cloister surrounds all the houses of the Carthusian Fathers; Its whistle-shaped vaults penetrate the walls without support. This is how each monk arrives at his house. The cells of the Fathers constitute the square to the north and south and complete it to the east. The enclosure wall connects the northern ones to each other; to the south and east, they detach themselves from it. At the foot of each one is a square flower bed. On the opposite wall is fixed a large black cross, which the Cenobite necessarily sees when he looks out.
Cells are indicated by a letter of the alphabet. Next to the door there is a small gate where the loner comes to collect his supplies. If he needs other things, he just has to leave a note there with the handwriting on his cell phone. The bed is shaped like a wardrobe, the bedding consists of a large canvas pallet, a pillow, sheets and a few wool blankets that replace those of yesteryear. Next to the bed is the oratory, made up of a chair and a kneeler, where the monk recites most of the services.
To the west of this cloister are the church, the chapter house and the small cloister dating from the 16th century and restored in 1929. Its construction is attributed to the generosity of the House of Savoy whose arms appear among the sixteen polychrome keys. This cloister is made up of four covered galleries that surround a patio. Each pointed arch arcade facing the courtyard is subdivided into a network of three small polybate arches and flamboyant tracery. The large square pillars, the systematic prohibition of sculptural decoration and the rejection of the vertical give this late Gothic building a squat, heavy and austere appearance. The cross vaults, characteristic of Gothic architecture, are based on two pointed arches that intersect diagonally. These vaults and arches are formed by keystones, stones carved in the shape of wedges, resting on each other. The key is the central key placed at the top of a vault and which locks the other stones in the desired position.
The church, whose foundation stone was laid by Aymon I de Faucigny, brother of Ardutius de Faucigny, bishop of Geneva, is in the ogival style. Along the north wall of the church are the Chapel of Blessed John of Spain (now the interior sacristy) and the Chapel of Saint Anthony (today the exterior sacristy for priests).

Nowadays, the rainbow is popular for a variety of reasons. Perhaps many don't know that the Bible recounts how it was chosen by God to be a memorial and a promise. It reminds us of God's judgement of mankind's wickedness that prompted Him to destroy all but Noah and his immediate family by a worldwide flood. You can read about it in Genesis chapters six to nine.
The rainbow serves as a promise that God will never again use a flood to punish a sinful world. But that does not mean that God is no longer angered by the wickedness of mankind and our rejection of Him. So the rainbow is also an important reminder that God judges sin.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
(Galatians 6:7)
Tag 015/365 (2019) im Regen in der Stadt warten die Tannenbäume auf die Abfuhr, ob sie diesen auch mitnehmen?
keine Nadeln, dafür noch die Kugeln
in the rain in the city, the Christmas trees wait for the rejection, whether they also take this with them?
no needles, but still the christmas tree balls
