هان ای بهار خسته که از راه های دور
موج صدا ی پای تو می ایدم به گوش
وز پشت بیشه های بلورین صبحدم
رو کرده ای به دامن این شهر بی خروش
برگرد ای مسافر گمکرده راه خویش
از نیمه راه خسته و لب تشنه بازگرد
اینجا میا ... میا ... تو هم افسرده می شوی
در پنجه ی ستمگر این شامگاه سرد
برگرد ای بهار ! که در باغ های شهر
جای سرود شادی و بانگ ترانه نیست
جز عقده های بسته ی یک رنج دیرپای
بر شاخه های خشک درختان جوانه نیست
برگرد و راه خویش بگردان ازین دیار
بگریز از سیاهی این شام جاودان
رو سوی دشتهای دگر نه که در رهت
گسترده انمد بستر مواج پرنیان
این شهر سرد یخ زده در بستر سکوت
جای تو ای مسافر آزرده پای ! نیست
بند است و وحشت است و درین دشت بی کران
جز سایه ی خموش غمی دیر پای نیست
دژخیم مرگزای زمستان جاودان
بر بوستان خاطره ها سایه گستر است
گل های آرزو همه افسرده و کبود
شاخ امید ها همه بی برگ و بی بر است
برگرد از این دیار که هنگام بازگشت
وقتی به سرزمین دگر رو نهی خموش
غیر از سرشک درد نبینی به ارمغان
در کوله بار ابر که افکنده ای به دوش
آنجا برو که لرزش هر شاخه گاه رقص
از خنده سپیده دمان گفت و گو کند
آنجا برو که جنبش موج نسیم و آب
جان را پر از شمیم گل آرزو کند
آنجا که دسته های پرستو سحرگهان
آهنگهای شادی خود ساز می کنند
پروانگان مست پر افشان به بامداد
آزاد در پناه تو پرواز می کنند
آنجا برو که از هر شاخسار سبز
مست سرود و نغمه ی شبگیر می شوی
برگرد ای مسافر از این راه پر خطر
اینجا میا که بسته به زنجیر می شوی
Update @ July 20th, 2010: Both are here in, more or less, original state .. almost no wear. Currently the Supreme still looks like this, after being on the bike for the better part of 5000km. The XR looks a bit more worn currently, after having seen 3000km of NZ roads while on a bike tour ;-). The middle knobs of the XR are now completely flat, you can't see the indents in them anymore; for the rest no visible wear :-).
These are definitely my favourite tires, the XR in particular.
Note: thought I'd post an update after this being the most viewed image in my photostream :p.
Same time, same place. In both 'miting de avance' of the UNIDO-led government of Corazon Aquino and re-electionist President Marcos, these pictures taken at the same time (5:30pm) and the same place (rooftop of the Manila Hotel) show the difference in "people power." While opposition supporters came on their own to hear Cory Aquino, KBL supporters were reportedly trucked, bused, paid and ferried to Luneta.

In 2010, the main difference was the presence of Ardrossan Indoor Bowling Club, built at the left, built shortly after the photo was taken. The Town Hall was built in 1851 by Duncan Graham from the north of Scotland and was known as Graham’s Castle. From 1893, it was owned by Archibald Russell and his heirs. In 1920, it was bought by the Ardrossan Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Company Limited who refurbished it as Castlecraigs Recreation Club which opened on 26 February 1921. In 1927, the Masons bought the building and let out the ancillary rooms and tennis courts. During the second world war between 1939 and 1945, the Royal Navy requisitioned Castlecraigs as a barracks. It was subsequently managed by Ardrossan Town Council and known as the Town Hall. In the 1970s, North Ayrshire Council took over the building, added an extension to the right and called it Ardrossan Civic Centre.

We are committed to developing vital education programs that elevate, expand, modernize and enhance the image of collaboration and education today.
★WHAT IS THE DREAM ROCKET PROJECT?
The Dream Rocket Team is collecting nearly 8,000 artworks from participants around the globe. The artwork will be assembled together to create a massive cover in which will wrap a 37 story Saturn V Moon Rocket at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. We will also be displaying submitted artwork in dozens of national venues prior to the wrapping of the Saturn V. Additionally, we are posting images of submitted artwork & their stories on our Website, Flickr, and Facebook.The Dream Rocket project uses the Saturn V Moon Rocket as a symbolism of universal values of the human spirit. Optimism, hope,
caring for our natural resources, scientific exploration, and harnessing technological advancements for a better quality of life while safeguarding our communities, are all common desires across national and international boundaries. Participants are able to express and learn about these values through this creative collaboration. With the completion of each artwork, participants are asked to write an essay explaining their artwork, and the dream theme in which they chose.
★How can I Participate & Have my Artwork Displayed?
The Dream Rocket project would like to challenge you to ‘Dare to Dream’. To dream about your future and the future of our world through dream themes such as health, community, conservation, science, technology, space, peace, and so on.

We hope that you are able to express and learn through this creative collaboration. With the completion of each artwork, you are asked to write a brief essay explaining your artwork, and the dream theme in which you chose.
“The Saturn V is the ideal icon to represent a big dream. This rocket was designed and built as a collaboration of nearly half-a-million people and allowed our human species to venture beyond our world and stand on ANOTHER - SURELY one of the biggest dreams of all time. ENABLING THE DREAMS of young people to touch this mighty rocket sends a powerful message in conjunction with creating an educational curriculum to engage students to embrace the power of learning through many important subjects”

what a difference a day makes. feel much better today, even though i still hate my haircut.
spotting something like this when you walk around your backyard in the morning can make smile for the rest of the day.
1958 Interior.
The differences: Gold anodized side trim in '57, silver in '58. The side trim had three horizontal ridges at the back where it meets the tailfin, none in '58. Dual headlights with inboard turn signals in '57, quads in '58. Six vertical under-bumper intake slots in '57 (changed to 12 narrower ones in mid '57 after buyer complaints), a continuation of the upper grille in '58. Sailing-ship emblem on the grille in '57, a "V" (denoting a V8 car) in '58. "PLYMOUTH" spelled out in chrome letters on the front of the hood in '57, and spelled out in black on a much smaller winged front mediallion in '58. Deep-dish "coolie hat" wheelcovers in '57, shallower ones in '58. A "V" (denoting a V8 car) ahead of the front wheelwells in '57, none in '58.
At the rear: Triangle-shaped taillight lenses (following the contour of the tailfin) with round back-up lights below in '57, a chrome strip where the '57 taillight was and a round taillight where the '57 backup light was in '58.
The reason I'm such a geek about '57 and '58 Plymouths is that my dad had a midnight blue '57 Belvedere with a white side streak and roof. I grew up standing up in the back seat, back before the nanny state decided that every child under 4' 9" should be strapped into a baby seat.
He bought it used in '59 and totaled it in November of '64, when he went the wrong way down an exit ramp on the Outer Drive in Chicago and took out three other cars. He thought car insurance was a scam; didn't believe in it. As a result, we spent 3 years paying off claims from the people he hit.
Every time I go to a Chrysler or any other car show, I look for a car just like it, or any '57 Belvedere 4-door sedan, just to see it and (if the owner lets me) sit in it, and relive a little bit of my lost youth.
I'm still looking.
FOTD-13Dec COP25 - Official Award Citation For Colossal Fossil Award and Ray of the Year
Today the winner of the Colossal fossil may not come as a surprise to many. Yes there is a country that really outdone others in destroying the climate concretely on the ground and in the negotiations, attacking and killing the very people who are protecting unique ecosystems: indigenous people.
==Brazil is the winner of CAN´s COP25 colossal fossil.==
What a difference a year makes. Cradle of the UNFCCC and widely praised for impressive emission cuts in the last decade, Brazil has become a climate pariah. Eleven months into the far-right government of Jair Bolsonaro, the South American country has joined the United States as one of the main threats to the Paris Agreement.
Bolsonaro, self-dubbed “Capitan Chainsaw”, has managed to kill environmental policies that helped Brazil achieve spectacular emission reductions in the past decade. The results were the highest Amazon deforestation rates in a decade, a spike in land invasions and the murder of three indigenous leaders just this week. The government is also cracking down on environmentalists – who Bolsonaro famously blamed for setting fire to the jungle.
Environment minister and climate denier Ricardo Salles led Brazil’s delegation at COP25, gagging diplomats and trying to blackmail rich countries into giving him cash to increase deforestation of the Amazon rainforest. That of course didn’t pan out, so Salles started criticizing his own country’s NDC.
Brazil had some bizarre behaviors in Madrid, such as blocking mention to human rights on article 6.4 and opposing language on “climate emergency” in the COP decision. And the usual ones, like insisting on lose accounting rules for article 6.4 and on flooding the market with rotten Kyoto credits in order to appease old lobbies that got pink badges for Madrid – unlike civil society. Jair Bolsonaro is a walking carbon bomb who no doubt deserves this great achievement, the Colossal Fossil.
And much more.
==Ray of the Year goes to Indigenous People and the Youth==
Despite continuous discrimination and risk, indigenous people have fought to save the environment since the beginning of time. Today more than ever and despite suffocating closing on their space, they continue to fight at the forefront of climate struggles. For this and for simply existing and challenging systemized monocultures, they systematically get oppressed - often having to hold space with patience, love, and resilience, despite all the violence they face on a daily basis. This COP25, which originally was supposed to be held in Chile, where access was easier, was a golden opportunity to express themselves. But another oppressive government decided to change that and the COP shifted to Madrid. Still, they showed up and raised their voices. Despite exclusion and silencing, they continue to safeguard environmental and cultural diversity and integrity..
Young people around the world have mobilized millions of people to march on the streets, fighting desperately for their lives and their future. It’s not inspiring - indeed it’s downright depressing - that they have to mobilise like this just to get a halfway decent future, but it’s their resilience, their courage, and their determination to never let politicians get away with destruction of their hopes and dreams that is truly inspiring. They have been called radical, yet what is truly radical is to continue blitzing the world with fossil fuels. What’s truly radical, is to pretend that the cost of action is somehow greater than the cost of inaction; the cost of the future, the cost of entire civilisations.
Young people’s mobilisation forced Governments to act, demonstrated the power of the people, and inspired so many.
These beacons of hope deserve CAN´s Ray of the Year. Power to the people.
About the fossils:
Every day at 18:00 local time you can watch the Fossil ceremony in Hall 4 during COP25.
The Fossil of the Day awards were first presented at the climate talks in 1999, in Bonn, initiated by the German NGO Forum. During United Nations climate change negotiations (www.unfccc.int), members of the Climate Action Network (CAN), vote for countries judged to have done their 'best' to block progress in the negotiations in the last days of talks.
About CAN: The Climate Action Network (CAN) is a global network of over 1,300 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in more than 120 countries working to promote government and individual action to limit human induced climate change to ecologically sustainable levels.

What is your best memory of WSSU?
My best memory of WSSU would be Homecoming! All the support, love and positive energy from alumni, students, faculty and staff is amazing! Seeing thousands of people coming together, bring their kids and relatives to brag about how awesome WSSU is priceless. To celebrate this wonderful institution through donations, attendance at athletic events as well as fellowshipping on the yard is phenomenal!
What do you love about WSSU?
The one thing I love about WSSU is the family oriented vibe I receive from not only the faculty and staff, but also from the students? There is not a moment that goes by each and every day where I do not see the genuine vibe and care our students have for one another. Wither it is student leaders encouraging other students to get more involved with student activities or students coming together to walk to the football or basketball games to support athletics or senate meetings, together we act as one.
What do you plan on doing after you graduate?
My plans after graduation are to further my education to receive my masters in the field of education. With this goal I plan to teach at a Title 1 school in the Forsyth County region to help leave a legacy in the community of Winston Salem and embrace my love and the importance of my HBCU.
How has WSSU prepared you for the future?
Being that WSSU is a Liberal Arts Institution is has prepared me with the knowledge and skill set in different content areas where I will be able to use that background knowledge and the fundamental skill set to adapt to any job I come across in the future in life.
How has WSSU made a difference in your life?
WSSU has made a huge difference in my life. Getting involved in different organizations such as Greek Life, Housing and Resident Life and Student Government Association has taught me to believe in myself. Getting involved in campus life has developed my communication and social skills. It has taught me how important your personal brand is and taught me the importance of networking and getting out of my comfort zone. If I did not have individuals at this this institution to push and help motivate me, I would have never revealed my full potential. And for that I am proud to be an alum of the Winston Salem State University!

I rarely do posed shots at events, I make exception when the subjects ask for a photo themselves, ask to be photographed. This is such an occasion, captured at the opening day of the 2025 Ballinasloe Horse Fair (County Galway, Ireland), the oldest horse fair in Europe, held since the first half of the 1700s. All horse owners and buyers, horse riders and lovers of horses from the region and the whole island gather during this week in Ballinasloe. It is a traditional meeting place of the Irish Travellers as well, who resemble in their lifestyle to the Roma (Gypsies), yet there are not genetically connected with them. The Travellers diverged from the Irish about 500 years ago. www.nature.com/articles/srep42187
Much thanks for your kind support!
Pinnacle Trust Schools in Sandy, Potton and Moggerhanger were out in their local communities yesterday (2nd July) for the annual “Make A Difference” day. The school children spent the day working on community based tasks which will enhance their local area and also raise funds for charity.
Children from Laburnum Lower School, Sandy, assisted PCSO Ann Jeeves with a speed check along Bedford Road, while other children from the school took time to visit some of the residential homes in the town to help out.
If you would like to support their initiative you can buy MAD day bags from Sandy Tourist Information Office and from the Town Council Offices. The bags have been designed by pupils and proceeds will help support Keech Cottage Hospice and also the local schools.

OK, so not too hard, but versions of Lightning McQueen from other sets such as 8486 Mack's Team Truck have the same racing livery as my son's battered die cast model, so will be a better match.... This version is from Set 8200 Radiator Springs Lightning McQueen.

Like a far away smokey world, the Gorge glowed under the blanket of smoke recently. This rain the last couple days have made such a huge difference, the air smells fresh and alive again and makes me so happy! and there are interesting clouds again!

I've this set included an unique minifigure Nexo knight.
Here you can see some differents details on the legs and on the torso from the other knight in the sets 70310, 70311, 30373 and 30371.
Original picture by me
Devotees of the www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/ photosream might think that this picture by Waterford photographer A.H. Poole looks familiar. But this one, from the UK National Archives at Kew, differs in several ways (I spent a considerable time yesterday wearing white cotton gloves squinting through a magnifying glass at the 1910 print).
Simliarities;
- Poole was in the same position for both photos (the lamppost aligns with the T of Waterford on both photos),
- and both photos were subject to the same 'photoshopping' (the ends of the shafts removed and the W of Waterford restored)
Differences
- The Kew picture has the van in the centre, rather than to the left
- The people (other than the tea ladies) and cattle are different (or not obviously the same as far as I could judge)
- the NLI photo has some liquid manure (I presume) trickling towards the van, suggesting it was taken after the Kew one.
- The board advertising Lipton's tea looks as if it is leaning against the steps. and barely visible.
- the printer of the Kew photo has de-emphasised the buildings in the background.

I tingled inside at the sight of this beauty. Charles Babbage was a genius who designed a mechanical, base-10 computing device way before the modern computer era. His vision was never built: it was just too hard and expensive and plain old ahead of its time. Finally, in the 1980s, this computer was built based on Babbage's old designs. A beautiful brass hand-cranked calculating machine! For a modern computer geek this is not unlike seeing a dinosaur brought to life.
Produced this for my self sanity and anybody else interested. The blanks in the 'Pro account - New' are the same as those stated in the 'Free Account'.
The 'Pro account - New' was populated by using the details from the upgrade button (not sure how it is an upgrade when I am already a pro account holder, or was).
I have to say at this point I would be making a contractual arrangement By clicking “UPGRADE NOW” you agree to receive Flickr Pro from Yahoo! Inc. under the Yahoo! Inc. The agreement on this page does not specify that the Pro Account will include the products and services as listed in 'Free Account'.
I believe the actions of Yahoo to be unethical in consideration of those with Pro Account contracts, the question is should Yahoo - Flickr continue to deliver the same services and products you agreed to when you previously made you contract or do you want the addition storage benefits.
As for the home page and interface changes compared to the other services, I still think Flickr has richer content on word searching and the community interactions (if there is anyone left in Flickr land).
If you had a free account previously and you're jumping around because of the home page change, interesting to see how it will cost to jump ship to another provider, what I seen so far to get something decent £6.95 per month sounds a lot more than zero.
