''Avevo capito che rinunciare a se stessi, non amarsi è come sbagliare a chiudere il primo bottone della camicia. Tutti gli altri poi sono sbagliati di conseguenza. Amarsi è l'unica certezza per riuscire ad amare davvero gli altri.''
fabiovolo.
I took baby formula tin boxes and covered them with paper scraps - so fun to decorate these :-)

I love the colors of this print dress but the fit was rather matronly shall we say.
A slight shift in the hemline makes it a little more palatable yes?
The Spanish Synagogue is the most recent synagogue in the Prague Jewish Town.
Built in 1868 for the local Reform congregation on the site of the 12th-century Altschul, which was the oldest synagogue in the Prague ghetto.
It was called the Spanish Synagogue for its impressive Moorish interior design, influenced by the famous Alhambra. The building was designed by Josef Niklas and Jan Bělský, the remarkable interior (from 1882–83) by Antonín Baum and Bedřich Münzberger.
František Škroup, the composer of the Czech national anthem, served as organist here in 1836-45.
All right guys, this is my first tv review!
Altered Carbon is set in 2384, where people don’t age or actually die because their consciousness are put in “sleeves”, a term meaning new bodies. Everyone is equipped with “stacks”, which preserves the consciousness at the back of the neck. The main character is Takeshi Kovacs, played by Will Yun Lee in the original body, is a soldier/mercenary of a group, and somehow wakes up 250 years later after he is killed, in a new body, played by Joel Kinnaman. He is a prisoner facing crimes, but is given the decision to help solve the murder of a wealthy “meth”, Laurens Bancroft (James Purefoy), or remain in prison for life.
So this show is based on a book back in 2002, (which I have never read yet) written by author Richard K. Morgan, despite many people saying the differences like merging characters or derivative of source material. I love the mystery, mood, dark tones, diversity, nice themes and the consciousness thing which could be real and might happen in the future. The story is very rich and engaging, because on the way with Takeshi’s investigation, there are a few subplots and a slew of supporting characters and enemies. Takeshi doesn’t go alone, he’s got Detective Ortega (Maria Higareda) who sometimes works with him or behind his back. Poe, based on Edgar Allan Poe, who is the hotel manager of an A.I hotel named Raven who provides Takeshi his stay and a base (nice nod, because the actor, Chris Conner, does resemble the original). There’s also a military medic, played by Ato Essandoh, and so many characters along the way.
This show is full of visuals, twists and turns, plus some awesome action sequences, flashbacks jumping to 250 years ago and present, plus some sex and violence (you know what I mean). It is highly reminiscent of sci fi movies, games, books and tv shows, notably Blade Runner, the Deus Ex franchise, Total Recall, Robocop and etc. The cast is also great too, they give off great performances, and is pretty diverse.
Last but not least is the terms and expansive vocabulary, which is pretty cool, like “meth” meaning the richest, wealthiest people praised like gods, based on the Biblical figure, Methuselah. The only problems are a few plot holes and the ending, but overall, I’m pretty impressed with the show—-and I’m looking forward to a season 2.
If you’re a fan of sci-fi, just looking for something good to watch, or whatever reasons, this new show that popped up a few days ago should pleasure you. Also, some references and Easter eggs :)

Some time ago I ran across my never-finished altered book, started years ago. It was fun to find, maybe it will evolve :)
Unter Einsatz meines Lebens habe ich mich in die Wiese geschmissen um diesen herrlichen Falter abzulichten. Entdeckt habe ich den in der Nähe der FFW Zwenkau. Zecken, Mücken und anderes Ungeziefer attackierten mich ... habe sie alle eliminiert ... Der Falter flog von Stengel zu Stengel und ich wie ein vergaster hinterher ... das ist dabei rausgekommen ... ich hoffe es gefällt.
Meinungen, Gedanken, Kritiken ... zu dem Bild egal ob positiv oder negativ sind gern willkommen :-)! Also traut Euch ... der FRED beißt nicht ...
PADDY: “Hullo everyone! It was such a beautiful day today that Daddy has decided to take us out with him on an adventure to Billilla Mansion, in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton.”
SCOUT: “Paddy? Paddy!”
PADDY: “Yes Scout?”
SCOUT: “Why are there all these funny, sweeping patterns on Billilllilll….”
PADDY: “Billillia, Scout.”
SCOUT: “On this big old house?”
PADDY: “ Well Scout, Billilla is a mansion that was bought in 1888 by a man called William Weatherly, who was a very wealthy pastoralist. However, he had it altered, extended and remodelled at the turn of the Twentieth Century. These alterations were done in the popular style of the time, which was called Art Nouveau.”
SCOUT: “Ooooohhh!” *Jumps up and down excitedly.* “I know that style! It’s Daddy’s most favouritest style in the whole wide world! He has lots, and lots, and lots of books all about Art Nouveau.”
PADDY: “Yes he does, Scout.”
SCOUT: “Paddy? Paddy!”
PADDY: “Yes, Scout?”
SCOUT: “Do you see the pattern on the window behind us?”
PADDY: “Yes I do, Scout. What about it?”
SCOUT: “Well, I think it looks like a big Art Nouveau heart!”
PADDY: *Considers the pattern in the window.* “Why yes, Scout. I think you are right!”
SCOUT: “Then in that case I would like to wish Daddy and all our Flickr friends lots of big Art Nouveau love, big Art Nouveau bear hugs and snuffly Art Nouveau kisses from Billillilllll….”
PADDY: “Billilla, Scout.”
SCOUT: “From this big Art Nouveau House!”
PADDY: “Yes, we would like to wish Daddy and all our Flickr friends lots of big Art Nouveau love, big Art Nouveau bear hugs and snuffly Art Nouveau kisses from Billilla!”
Paddy is correct. He, Scout and I visited the historical Art Nouveau mansion of Billilla in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton recently, after it was opened to the public for the first time in many years as part of the Melbourne Open House weekend 2022.
Billilla Historic Mansion, which was the former the home of the Weatherly family, is a beautiful heritage property incorporating a stately formal garden and the magnificent historic house.
Billilla, at 26 Halifax Street, Brighton, is one of Melbourne’s few remaining significant homesteads. The mansion was built by merchant Robert Wright in 1878 on land which had originally been owned by Nicholas Were. The house has a mixture of architectural styles, featuring a Victorian design with Art Nouveau features. With exquisite formal gardens, which retain much of their original 19th Century layout, the property was owned by the Weatherley family (whom named it Billilla) from 1888 to 1972.
Billilla retains many original Victorian elements and a number of outbuildings still stand to the rear of the property including the butler’s quarters, dairy, meat house, stable garden store and coach house.
Billilla was used as a backdrop in the Australian 1980 Channel 10 miniseries adaptation of Sumner Locke Elliott's "Water Under the Bridge". It was used at the Sydney harbourside home of Luigi, Honor and Carrie Mazzini.
My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his mackintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his mackintosh.
He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.
Scout was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.
Being colder in the middle of winter here, both Paddy and Scout are wearing hand knitted scarves and Paddy is wearing hand knitted hat by Lorna's Lovely Looks. Paddy sports a crown pin and Scout insisted on wearing a pink tea cup one, which seems most appropriate. Both were gifts from a good friend who is very fond of Paddy and Scout.
Well, i decided to stop a little with my mineral crystals as i know it´s not for everyone´s taste. For me they are amazing as they represent the visible way of the order of molecules and the chemical link in the basis of our universe. :)
But for not doing an extreme change in my gallery, i post geology in all its manifestation! Altered mountains. Color created by the hidrothermal fluids that change the rock physical and chemical composition. A view to remember. Love this place.
St. Peter's Church is a Roman Catholic parish church in the inner city of Munich, southern Germany. Its 91-metre (299 ft) tower is commonly known as "Alter Peter"—Old Peter—and is emblematic of Munich. St Peter's is the oldest recorded parish church in Munich and presumably the originating point for the whole city.
