The Answer e The Dead Daisies (la band capitanata da John Corabi, ex-Motley Crue), due grandi band del rock'n'roll moderno insieme per un co-headlining tour, il 29 novembre a Milano, ai Magazzini Generali.
Un duo micidiale che tutti gli amanti della musica rock non potranno perdere.
The Answer hanno raggiunto il successo con il loro album di debutto Rise con oltre 100.000 copie vendute in tutto il mondo. Il gruppo fu fondato dal chitarrista Paul Mahon e da Cormac Neeson coinvolgendo il bassista Micky Waters, un vecchio compagno di scuola che aveva già fatto parte di numerose cover band intorno a Belfast, e James Heatley, che aveva suonato in un live degli Ash.
Il leader dei Def Leppard Joe Elliott ha dichiarato apertamente di essere un loro fan e Jimmy Page ha addirittura affermato "Se volete vedere come eravamo noi Zeppelin negli anni'70 ascoltatevi The Answer".
Cormac Neeson - voce
Paul Mahon - chitarra
Micky Waters - basso
James Heatley - batteria
3/4, okay maybe 5 if you count sold hope, training buses is okay...
These are now the only presidents which are now on the road, and they are obviously trainers...
I do wonder, when wyke and hymers return, will the 53 presidents return? I mean- the 52 plates are gonna be all sold most likely due to their age. With around 4-5 B7TLs now reserved, obviously they will be put on schools. I guess more B7TLs may be put on schools when the park and ride evos and eclipses return.
As always, answers on the postcard please.
Operating the inaugural Qatar Airways Doha to Dublin service, Airbus A350 A7--ALE heads towards the terminal.
The daily service operates using their dreamliner 787's, but for the first day, this A350 was used, this type of aircraft still very rare in Dublin.
Qatar had been rumored to be coming to Dublin for years, following in the footsteps of Emirates & Etihad, so today, questions were answered.
A full interview with the Israeli painter Raphael Perez (in Hebrew Rafi Peretz) about the ideas behind the naive painting, resume, personal biography and CV
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about your work process as a naive painter?
Answer: I choose the most iconic and famous buildings in every city and town that are architecturally interesting and have a special shape and place the iconic buildings on boulevards full of trees, bushes, vegetation, flowers.
Question: How do you give depth in your naive paintings?
Answer: To give depth to the painting, I build the painting with layers of vegetation, after those low famous buildings, followed by a tall avenue of trees, and behind them towers and skyscrapers, in the sky I sometimes put innocent signs of balloons, kites.
A recurring motif in some of my paintings is the figure of the painter who is in the center of the boulevard and paints the entire scene unfolding in front of him, also there are two kindergarten teachers who are walking with the kindergarten children with the state flags that I paint, and loving couples hugging and kissing and family paintings of mother, father and child walking in harmony on the boulevard.
Question: Raphael Perez What characterizes your naive painting?
Answer: Most naive paintings have the same characteristics
(Definition as it appears in Wikipedia)
• Tells a simple story to absorb from everyday life, usually with humans.
• The representation of the painter's idealization to reality - the mapping of reality.
• Failure to maintain perspective - especially details even in distant details.
• Extensive use of repeating patterns - many details.
• Warm and bright colors.
• Sometimes the emphasis is on outlines.
• Most of the characters are flat, lack volume
• No interest in texture, expression, correct proportions
• No interest in anatomy.
• There is not much use of light and shadow, the colors create a three-dimensional effect.
I find these definitions to be valid for all my naive paintings
Question: Raphael Perez Why do you mainly choose the city of Tel Aviv?
Answer: I was born in Jerusalem, the capital city which I love very much and also paint,
I love the special Bauhaus buildings in Tel Aviv, the ornamental buildings that were built a century ago in the 1920s and 1930s, the beautiful boulevards, towers and modern skyscrapers give you the feeling of the hustle and bustle of a large metropolis and there are quite a few low and tall buildings that are architecturally fascinating in their form the special one
Also, the move to Tel Aviv, which is the capital of culture, freedom, and secularism, allowed me to live my life as I chose, to live in a relationship with a man, Jerusalem, which is a traditional city, it is more complicated to live a homosexual life, also, the art world takes place mainly in the city of Tel Aviv, and it is possible that from a professional point of view, this allows I can support myself better in Tel Aviv than in any other city in Israel.
Question: raphael perez are the paintings of the city of Tel Aviv different from the paintings of the city of Jerusalem
Answer: Most of the paintings of Jerusalem have an emphasis on the color yellow, gold, the color of the old city walls, the subjects I painted in Jerusalem are mainly a type of idealization of a peaceful life between Jews and Arabs and paintings that deal with the Jewish religious world, a number of paintings depict all shades of the currents of Judaism of today
In contrast, the Tel Aviv paintings are more colorful, with skyscrapers, the sea, balloons and more secular motifs
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about which buildings and their architects you usually choose in your city paintings
Answer: My favorite buildings are those that have a special shape that anyone can recognize and are the symbols of the city and you will give several examples:
In the city of Tel Aviv, my favorite buildings are: the opera building with its unusual geometric shape, the Yisrotel tower with its special head, the Hail Bo Shalom tower that for years was the symbol of the tallest building in Tel Aviv, the Levin house that looks like a Japanese pagoda, the burgundy-colored Nordeau hotel with the special dome at the end of the building, A pair of Alon towers with the special structure of the sea, Bauhaus buildings typical of Tel Aviv with the special balconies and the special staircase, the Yaakov Agam fountain in Dizengoff square appears in a large part of the paintings, many towers that are in the stock exchange complex, the Aviv towers and other tall buildings on Ayalon, in some of the paintings I took plans An outline of future buildings that need to be built in the city and I drew them even before they were built in reality,
In the paintings of Jerusalem, I mainly chose the area of the Old City and East Jerusalem, a painting of the walls of the Old City, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the El Akchea Mosque, the Tower of David, most of the famous churches in the city, the right hand of Moses, in most of the paintings the Jew is wearing a blue shirt with a red male cord I was in the youth movement and the Arab with a galabia, and in the paintings of the religious public then, Jews with black suits and white shirts, tallitas, kippahs, special hats, synagogues and more
I also created three paintings of the city of Haifa and one painting of Safed
In the Haifa paintings I drew the university, the Technion, the famous Egged Tower, the Sail Tower, well-known hotels, of course the Baha'i Gardens and the Baha'i Temple, Haifa Port and the boats and other famous buildings in the city
Question: Have you created series of other cities from around the world?
Answer: I created series of New York City with all the iconic and famous buildings such as: the Guggenheim Museum, the famous skyscrapers - the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, Lincoln Center, the famous synagogue in the city, the Statue of Liberty, the flags of the United States and other famous buildings
Two paintings of London and all its famous sites, Big Ben, famous monuments, the Ferris wheel, Queen Elizabeth and her family, the double bus, the famous public telephone, palaces, famous churches, well-known monuments
I created 4 naive paintings of cities in China, a painting of Shanghai, two paintings of the city of Suzhou and a painting of the World Park in the city of Beijing... I chose the famous skyline of Shanghai with all the famous towers, the famous promenade, temples and old buildings, two Paintings of the city of Suzhou with the famous canals, bridges, special gardens, towers and skyscrapers of the city

The Baltimore/D.C. regional International Action Center, ANSWER Coalition, CODEPINK and others called on all concerned organizations and individuals to take a stand and protest against any US intervention and aggression towards Syria.
We called for an immediate emergency demonstration the day of any missile attack on Syria in Baltimore, Frederick, Columbia and Washington D.C. and a regional protest the day after in Washington D.C. at the White House.
The U.S is poised to open another war. This one, the latest in a long series of aggressive wars, would target Syria. Four U.S. destroyers, each with 90 cruise missiles, are moving into place in the eastern Mediterranean to be able to launch these death-dealers at the Syrian people.
The pretext for this escalation is the assertion that the Syrian government has used chemical weapons in the conflict that has been raging for more than two years. Like their predecessors, President Obama and other top U.S. officials pretend to be concerned about “democracy” and “human rights” in Syria, but their closest allies in the campaign against Syria are police-state, absolute monarchies like Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Once again the so-called ‘Responsibility to protect’, R2P, is used as a pretext for NATO to dominate this region.
Just as the false claim of “weapons of mass destruction” was used as justification for the invasion and occupation of Iraq in 2003, the allegations that chemical weapons were used by the Syrian military is meant to mask the real motives of Washington and its allies. Their aim is to carry out “regime change,” as part of the drive to create a “new Middle East.”
The invasion of Iraq in 2003, the U.S.-backed Israeli war in Lebanon in 2006, the 2011 NATO bombing of Libya, the now-escalating war in Syria and the growing threats against Iran are part of a coordinated regional effort by the United States, Britain and France to dominate this oil-rich and strategic region.
The U.S. government cuts basic services and has eliminated hundreds ofthousands of workers jobs in the name of austerity while they have spent unlimited billions on wars of aggression and NSA surveillance.
Workers and the poor have nothing to gain by supporting US military action against Syria. The US isn't concerned about human rights in Syria or for that matter right here at home where racism is on the rise with attacks on voting rights, increased police brutality and mass incarceration.

His 10th anniversary gift may have been the new haircut from me, but Ezra also asked for a very special gift - it just took a little time to set it up :)
This old prayer card of Audrey Marie Santo is from 22 May 1997. It is very special to me. Little Audrey sent this to me with a Holy Medal taped to the front and I have had it ever since. I still have the Holy Medal as it is on my "Longest Holy Medal 11 Foot Chain". Little Audrey was the answer to my prayers back in 29 March 1997. I prayed to cousin Blessed Brother Andre Bessette to show me "St. Joseph's Oratory" closer to me as I would never get to his in Montreal, PQ., Canada. A month later to the date on 29 April 1997 at 11:00 P.M. Andre would show me Little Audrey!! How do I know for sure? When we went to Audrey's Mass in August 1997, my husband wheeled me up to a priest holding a precious Host. I asked the father when had it started bleeding, and he said it hadn't. I then, informed him it was now. Everyone made noises in awe, & the priest asked us to be silent & bow our heads. My husband wheeled me back after I took a picture. Suddenly, I felt a tap from behind me on my right shoulder. A stranger, tossed a card into the air and litterally took off through the crowd away from me. This thing fluttered into my hands into my lap. I was shocked to find it was a picture of cousin Andre with his prayer on the back!! I turned to find the man who gave it to me, but all I could see was him disappear now far away from me behind the people. Suddenly, a head pops out playfully from behind a woman, smiles, waves, and as quick as he is spotted, he disappears again, never to be seen or spoken to again. We had never said a word, so there is no way he could have ever known! I never ever met this man! I now call him an "Angel" as I have to wonder if he was! There was something special & different about him!! The answering of my prayers, the showing me Audreys, the leading me exactly to Audreys when we had no idea where she was & how to get there, the events that took place at Audreys, bleeding hosts, crying statues & pictures, (oh yes, we didn't walk in their blindly, we were skeptical, we checked for fraud, there was absolutely none to be found!), the beautiful host that started to bleed, the "Angel" giving me cousin Bl. Andre's prayer card, and so much more, was the convincing of me! You could actually feel God and his presence there! Through Linda, Audrey, & the rest of her wonderful family, I'm telling you, it was, the best experience of my life! God is trully working through this sacraficing & loving family!! To this I have no doubt! So much more happened that beautiful day, but I don't have enough room here to tell you. For those of you who are skeptics, let me tell you this, I walked in there thinking at worst, it's a fake, & at best, I'd be healed. I did not get a physical healing which I so desperately wanted, so this "convincing" of my heart & soul had to take much more to get me going!! I was not prepared however for what would happen to me. What I received there was so much more better than any physical healing I thought I so desired & needed desperately!! I wouldn't trade it for a second!! God transformed me that day & I haven't been the same since! I already knew about God, so please don't think this some sudden revelation. Words can't express, my full transformation, but the best I can describe it as God touched me in a way, like I had never been before. The things that used to matter, didn't anymore, & things that didn't matter, I now saw in a different light! A incredible sense of Peace & Love enveloped my soul, spirit & body, as I realized there's no worries, GOD HAD IT ALL UNDER CONTROL & TURNS ALL BAD INTO GOOD! My tears he wipes with his very hands, my broken spirit he holds in his very arms, my broken heart he mends with his precious blood, my confused head he enlightens with the sharing of his TRUTH! He breathes new fresh air into my very lungs to give me new life & carries me when I cannot walk! How wonderful he is, that I do cry with joy! Oh, but I am getting carried away here, just thinking about what he does, I guess, I can only tell you, if you are like what I was, skeptical, broken, confused, and even doubtful, just go to Audrey's & let God do the rest, for I will guarantee you this, you will never be the same again! He will transform your spirit, body, soul & life, so profoundly, teaching you endlessly to your abilities & needs cause he knows you best & has it all under control, no worries, that you will love it & Him!

So, I have turned 42 on the 42nd day of the year.
The significance of this means nothing unless you're a fan of the works of Douglas Adams. Look him up. You'll thank me later.
Suffice it to say that at this particular juncture some sort of revelation should have come to me about Life, The Universe and Everything.
Zip. Zero. The stillness of the Void.
In my youth I never thought that I would reach this age and if I did I was certain that I would be standing on another planet holding the keys to a flying car.
Later in my life I envisioned my life at this age as something far different than it actually is. I have answered none of the big questions, about my life, my future or even the things that troubled me in my 20s.
42 is as good an answer as anything I've found. That and the truism 'Kid, there's a lot of assholes out there.' Thanks to my news-writing professor in journalism school for that pearl of wisdom.
I'll leave this day with this bit of dialog from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy:
Arthur Dent: You know, this explains a lot. Because all my life, I've had this unaccountable feeling in my bones that something sinister was happening in the universe and that no one would tell me what it was.
Slartibartfast: Oh, no. That's just perfectly normal paranoia. Everyone in the universe has that.
Answer me quickly, Lord;
my spirit fails.
Do not hide your face from me
or I will be like those who go down to the pit.
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I entrust my life.
Rescue me from my enemies, Lord,
for I hide myself in you.
Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God;
may your good Spirit
lead me on level ground.
[Psalm 143:7-10 NIV]
5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!
