A disgraceful act of vandalism was committed last night in Taranto. The statue dedicated to the 44th U.S. President Barack Obama, by the sculptor Francesco Trani and placed on the sidewalk of Via Alto Adige has been irreparably destroyed.
The same sculptor of his ice cream shop opened this morning he found the damage. The incident is very serious in relation to the reputation of the work that had gone around the world as the artist had dedicated himself through the American Embassy in Italy to President Obama. Also appeared on many websites were notes and photos of the work as evidence of its value. The material with which it was made but was not a metal alloy, cement, which unfortunately has led to the corruption.
It now remains the bewilderment of many citizens who testified at the sculptures stunned their solidarity for this cowardly act, which penalizes anyone who appreciates art and decency.
Francesco Trani, however, does not give up and see you soon sure the statue of the 44th President back in place.
_____________________________
Un inqualificabile atto di vandalismo è stato compiuto la notte scorsa a Taranto. La statua dedicata al 44° Presidente degli Stati Uniti Barack Obama, realizzata dallo scultore tarantino Francesco Trani e posizionata sul marciapiede di Via Alto Adige è stata irrimediabilmente distrutta.
Lo stesso scultore stamane all'apertura del sua gelateria ne ha constatato il danneggiamento. L'episodio è molto grave anche in relazione alla notorietà dell'opera, che aveva fatto il giro del mondo in quanto l'artista l'aveva dedicata personalmente attraverso l'ambasciata americana in Italia al Presidente Obama. Inoltre su molti siti web erano comparse note e foto dell'opera a testimonianza del suo valore. Il materiale con cui era stata realizzata non era metallo ma una speciale lega cementizia, che ha favorito purtroppo il danneggiamento.
Resta ora lo sconcerto dei tanti cittadini, che sbigottiti hanno testimoniato allo sculture tutta la loro solidarietà per questo vile gesto, che penalizza tutti coloro che apprezzano l'arte e il vivere civile.
Francesco Trani comunque non demorde e sicuramente presto rivedremo la statua del 44° Presidente nuovamente al suo posto.

A typical American toilette booth at the Cincinnati International Airport, taken in April 2008. There is a half incs gap between the door and the wall, and a lot of space under and above the walls around - control is apparently more important than privacy...
Egy jellegzetesen amerikai vécéfülke a Cincinnati repülőterén, 2008. áprilisában. Az ajtó és a fal között egy centis rés van, amin be lehet látni, felette és alatta pedig még sokkal nagyobb. A szeméremnél itt fontosabb a kontroll...

Session Americana - from www.sessionamericana.com
This ad hoc acoustic supergroup started around a table at a small pub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Ry Cavanaugh, Billy Conway, Sean Staples, Dinty Child, Jim Fitting and other friends gathered to swap songs and stories. Their lively performances and inspired versions of tunes from the dusty backroads of America's past were such a hit with fans that they decided to take their musical conversation into the studio. The two-CD debut Tabletop People ups the ante with stellar appearances by folksinger Rose Polenzani, Twinemen's Laurie Sargent, Dennis Brennan, Asa Brebner, Merrie Amsterburg, Dan Kellar, Presidents of the United States' Chris Ballew, Jabe Beyer, Tim Gearon and other luminaries. And the 18 gritty, funny, soulful performances included span a gamut of emotions and tastes that should please both adult and younger listeners.
"Genius ... Jaw-dropping vocals ... Session Americana is blessed in this regard:...musicianship that sets the standard for the genre in Boston
and vocals that do the same"
— Performer Magazine
Session Americana sit tightly around a small cafe table, ambient mics tuned to catch the whole sound of the voices and instruments. A suit-case drum kit, an old electric bass, a bunch of acoustic instruments, a field organ: This format feels very theatrical and though the musicians face each other, the audience feels drawn into the circle by the warmth, joy and camaraderie that emanate outwards by the all star cast of characters seated around the table. What keeps you coming back show after show is the same thing that any audience member longs for, great songs performed by a great band. The six core members of the band have brought enviable careers worth of experience to the “table”, featuring (current and former) members of Treat Her Right, Patty Griffin, Lori McKenna, The The, Dennis Brennan, Kris Delmhorst. The group has grown from a rag tag jam at a local pub to a regional institution, playing gigs from church coee houses to urban nightclubs to regional festival tents to large halls.
Band: Ry Cavanaugh, Billy Beard, Dinty Child, Jim Fitting, Sean Staples and Jon Bistline.

OMG! Did Apurva Asrani call Kangana Ranaut a criminal?
Just today in the morning we posted news of Apurva Asrani refusing to react to the latest tirade of Kangana Ranaut on a popular talk show on a news channel. The actress accused Apurva Asrani of unnecessarily creating a scene over not getting credit for Kangana’s upcoming film Simran, which he wrote. Kangana Ranaut claimed that he was always going to get due credit for writing Simran and also says that it was all a publicity stunt from his side.
Apurva Asrani however has now decided to open up on these shocking allegations. He made a series of tweets wherein he didn’t take anybody’s name but it’s obvious that he’s responding to Kangana’s claims. He raked up the issue of ‘pseudo feminism’ and asked that if it’s fair that women transgress the limits of decency just because men also do the same? He hit back at these ‘pseudo feminists’ and blamed them for cheering for a ‘woman who commits a crime’. He then asked whether these women are trying to understand the issue completely or are they being lenient towards Kangana Ranaut? He didn’t stop at that and said that it’s strange that the ‘pseudo feminists’ celebrate when a woman breaks the rule, but shame a man for doing the same. He finally signed off by saying writers being harassed is injustice and that’s something that won’t change despite Kangana Ranaut’s outspokenness.
Looks like this explosive interview of Kangana Ranaut has ruffled quite a few feathers in Bollywood. It now remains to be seen how the others, targeted by Kangana, react, namely Aditya Pancholi, Adhyayan Suman and above all, Hrithik Roshan.
Women who transgress the limits of decency & fair play by saying ‘men did it, so why can’t we?’ only compound the problem. #pseudofeminism

As a gay man, I have suffered patriarchy all my life. But today, I also suffer the pseudo feminists, who cheer when a woman commits a crime.

As a woman, are you investigating thoroughly? Or are you cutting slack coz she’s a woman? Shouldn’t you hold both sexes equally accountable?

You celebrate a woman for being a ‘rule breaker’, but shame a man for the same. You forget that this breaking of rules may hurt innocent ppl

I’m not ok with film makers getting bullied and writers getting fucked over just because you are an outspoken woman. Injustice is injustice.

Catching up on some back shots from the beginning of the year
On a walk around the Addington Cemetery with a wonderful Flickr friend. February 13, 2016 Christchurch New Zealand.
There is so much damaged in the cemetery because of the earthquake we have had. It is such a pity as I don' think it will ever be fully repaired.
The Addington Cemetery was established in 1858 when the Scottish Presbyterians of St Andrew’s Church purchased land for a cemetery in Selwyn Street. Although not the first cemetery in Christchurch, Addington was in fact the first “public” cemetery, “being open to all persons of any religious community” and allowing the performance of any religious service “not contrary to public decency”.
The first burial took place on the 10th of November 1858. The cemetery has several persons of note buried within its grounds including activist Kate Sheppard, Christchurch Mayor Tommy Taylor and members of the pioneer family, the Deans.

Once again, quoting Dave Bowman from 2001 A Space Odyssey. I took this image a while ago and completely blew it out through over-exposure. However, by fiddling around I got it halfway back to decency and thought I would upload it. A bit blue as I struggled (to excess) to remove the light pollution. Taken a while back and I forget which part of the sky, other than it is clearly part of the milky way. I'll try the astrometry solver but I bet it self-destructs with this one!
Update, it didn't explode and identified the stellar region as the head end of Cygnus and Vulpecula..which I had suspected because I photograph this area frequently.

No guest speaker seems to have been received so enthusiastically at Camp 50 -or, at least, by those who at the time were members of the Camp's Political Working-Group- as Rev Dr Franz Dietrich Meyer-Klügel (1904-1977). Born in Hanover, Dr Meyer-Klügel had been a minister in Göttingen and then in Basel, Switzerland, before entering the UK with his wife and child early in 1939. His lecture on “The Christian's Social and Political Responsibility”, given three times in the main camp and once each at the Garswood, Golborne, Penketh, Bickerstaffe, Aughton Green and Kirkby hostels over 3 days in Sepetember 1946, was heard by approximately 1600 POWs in total. According to a transcript of the lecture preserved at The National Archives, Dr Meyer-Klügel accused several leading churchmen in Germany – including, in particular, Martin Niemöller (1892-1984; author of the famous “First, they came for....” poem, and one of the initiators in 1945 of the “Schuldbekenntnis“ or Declaration of Guilt issued by the German Evangelical Church) - of being supporters of and apologists for the Nazis.* The process that led to the 1945 declaration is also critcised as an attempt to deflect or diffuse the Church's reponsibility for what had happened during the period of Nazi rule. Instead of making such gestures, he says, these “compromised” leaders should “have the decency to step down”:
“If they don't go, let the youth confidently sweep them away. The youth must build the future. The fact that they are now preparing for this is perhaps a manifestation of the Divine purpose behind their imprisonment here...” (my translation).
Dr Meyer-Klügel's post-lecture report to the FO describes Camp 50 as “the best the lecturer has seen so far with regards to re-education and morale”. This was “particularly” due “the work and merit of the Interpreter CSM Bloch”, who had “organised really splendid study groups under the leadership of genuine and active anti-Nazis” and whose imminent departure from the Camp in consequence of his discharge from the Army was “deeply” regretted by them. Several had themselves “been in concentration camps and Nazi prisons for underground anti-Nazi activities” and were able to speak convincingly to the other POWs about their experiences. The report repeats claims by some of the POWs that the Theological Training College at Camp 174 was “a hot-bed for Nazi spirit”, and warns the authorities to be wary of the Protestant leaders at Penketh Hostel and in the main camp who had trained there (respectively, Pastors Baring and Danz).** In addition, says Dr Meyer-Klügel, “the Camp Leader of the Main Camp” - O/Feldw. Dlugosch- “is regarded to be a Nazi, now camouflaged. The study leaders told [me] that about 5 months ago he and some other Nazis came to beat up one of the study leaders because this study leader had recited an anti-militarist poem...”.***
The signatories of the Political Working Group statement include its then chairman, Walter Kresse, a former political prisoner of the Nazis according to the Camp 50 newspaper. I have been unable to make a definite connection but I believe this to have been the same Walter Kresse who was captured by the Americans in North Africa and who later served as Mayor of Leipzig in the GDR.
Dr Meyer-Klügel afterwards became a Unitarian minister, serving congregations in Birmingham, Buxton and Exeter. An essay, “Principles of Augustine's doctrine of the state”, was contributed to “'And other pastors of thy flock': a German tribute to the Bishop of Chichester” published by Cambridge University Press in 1942. He also taught German at Foster's Grammar School for Boys in Sherborne, and was naturalised as a UK citizen in 1949. A file of correspondence “regarding his attacks on the Confessing Church (Bekennende Kirche) in lectures at prisoner of war camps” is preserved in the archives of the German Lutheran Church, Sydenham, at ref. LMA/4288/D/04/030.
*A POW at the Bickerstaffe Hostel evidently concurred with the lecturer's claim that the circumstances of Pastor Niemöller's arrest and detention at the Sachsenhausen-Oranienburg concentration camp had been misrepresented. According to CSM Bloch's report “The POW had been in Oranienburg himself and states that Niemöller never came near the actual Concentration Camp”. Dr Meyer-Klügel and the others may have been unaware, in 1946, of Pastor Niemöller's subsequent incarceration at Dachau. Niemöller did later acknowledge and express regret for his initial support for the Nazis.
**The theological school at Camp 174 Norton Park, near Mansfield in Nottinghamshire, had been set up by the British YMCA with funding from an American businessman, John Barwick. Dr Meyer-Klügel alleges that Gerhard Danz “became a Nazi Party member in 1933”, his “excuse” being that “his schoolmasters compelled him [to do so] when he was still at school and that later on he could not risk his career....”. Dr Martin Baring was “a typical opportunist” who had likewise joined the Party in 1933. Following the lecture he is said to have made “a rather long speech..., mainly agreeing, mostly disagreeing ...., but above all excusing himself for having joined the Nazis. The majority of the audience raised strong objections to his being Camp Pastor...”. Danz's ordination at Camp 174 on 15 May 1946, after which he was “immediately sent out as a camp pastor”, is reported by Director of Studies Dr Gerhard Friedrich in a document transcribed by Matthias Wiendal and Gerhard Schäfer for their book “Leben und Lernen hinter Stacheldraht: die evangelischen Lagergemeinden und theologischen Schulen in England, Italien und Ägypten” (“Living and learning behind barbed wire: the evangelical camp congregations and theological schools in England, Italy and Egypt”; Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2001). I can find no similar record of Dr Baring's ordination. Born into the German-British banking family, he did later hold office in the Disciplinary Court of the German Evangelical Church as well as the presidency of the Senate of the Federal Administrative Court. CSM Bloch likewise describes Dr Baring as “a very suspicious character”. By June 1947, however, he was sufficiently well-regarded as study leader at Penketh to be entrusted with the organisation of political re-education at the Myerscough Hostel.
*** O/Feldw. Dlugosch, rated “B” by the screeners, had been Camp Leader since June 1946. No action seems to have been taken against him as a consequence of Dr Meyer-Klügel's report, but a new CL - St/Fw. Kaesler- was in place by August 1947.

Thanx Kallisto! I do love my new home:)
For a few years around NYC the transit system had these very expensive looking large LED displays on the outsides of subway stations. They used to piss me off big-time because all they ever had were video-ads which were (a) distracting, (b) annoying, and (c) useless. You would think that for the money we spend on taxes and transit that they would have the the decency to take a few rows of pixels on the top or very bottom to tell us when that train line wasn't working or re-routed or SOMETHING the people that lived here could actually USE. But no - just irritating ads. Every now and again I would catch one of these displays with a trademark Windows blue-screen-of-death. It was the only thing I enjoyed about them and it warmed my heart every time. One day I finally had my camera on me to take a picture. [JOY!] It would appear that they are finally taking them all down. I guess they were too complicated or expensive to maintain compared to the revenue they were getting. Every now and again justice is served... but it's a rare dish in this town.
