Amsterdam - Pieter Lodewijk Takstraat

Pieter Lodewijk Tak (Middelburg, 24 september 1848 - Domburg, 26 augustus 1907) was een Nederlands journalist en politicus.
Tak was zoon van een rentmeester in Middelburg, waar hij na een mislukte rechtenstudie in 1878 buitenlandse overzichten ging schrijven voor de Middelburgsche Courant. Hij was bevriend met Floor Wibaut, die evenals hij lid was van de Sociëteit Sint-Joris. Beide Middelburgers trokken naar de hoofdstad, Tak in 1882. Hij schreef daar voor De Amsterdammer en De Nieuwe Gids. Van dat laatste blad nam hij het financieel beheer over van Frank van der Goes, maar na een ruzie begon hij een eigen literair tijdschrift De Kroniek.
Tak was aanvankelijk links-liberaal, aanhanger van Treub. In 1899 werd hij lid van de SDAP, en hij ging werken bij Het Volk. Van de socialistische partijkrant werd hij in 1903 hoofdredacteur, nadat het partijbestuur Pieter Jelles Troelstra uit deze functie had ontheven. In 1905 ontsloeg Tak de journalist Jacob Israël de Haan na de publicatie van diens roman Pijpelijntjes. De homoseksuele tendens in het boek was voor Tak niet aanvaardbaar. Wel maakte hij zich sterk voor vrouwenrechten.
Van 1905 tot zijn vroege dood was hij bovendien partijvoorzitter, kamerlid voor het kiesdistrict Franeker, lid van Provinciale Staten en gemeenteraadslid van Amsterdam. Hij stierf in 1907 tijdens een vakantie op het landgoed Duinvliet bij Domburg aan een hartverlamming.
P.L. Tak richtte in 1901 de woningbouwvereniging De Dageraad op. Deze corporatie noemde een complex woningen in Amsterdam-Zuid in de jaren-1920 naar de oprichter. Dit woningcomplex is beroemd wegens de fraaie architectuur in de stijl van de Amsterdamse School.
For my dear, Monsieur Pistolet : 0)
“Everything in art depends on execution: the story of a louse can be as beautiful as the story of Alexander. You must write according to your feelings, be sure those feelings are true, and let everything else go hang. When a line is good it ceases to belong to any school. A line of prose must be as immutable as a line of poetry.”
― Julian Barnes, Flaubert's Parrot

WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME TOMORROW – AMY WINEHOUSE
Parrots are very social creatures
full-on colours and pretty features
loving and giving and bringing delight
perched on a branch or in full flight
I study them and think anew
of what we can learn and what we can do
smile at a stranger; give the gift of love
offer a helping hand like an angel above
They make me smile with their funny ways
these Rainbow Lorikeets prefer sunnier days
but they seem happy despite the rain; carefree
they love each other that is plain to see
Male and female are hard to tell apart
both are beautiful and warm my heart
she is on the left and he is on the right
it's easier to tell when they're sitting tight
The female has some yellow that mingles with the red
and the male one has the reddest breast and a squarer head
just then they turned towards me and them I am unsure
but does it really matter as long as they adore
They like to eat pollen and nectar and fruit
the male puffs up his rainbow suit
protecting his mate from the other parrots
so she can digest her food but she does not like carrots
They like apples and pears and grapes and sunflower seeds
some figs and nectar to fulfil their needs
papayas and mangoes opened by a fruit bat
make them smile inside like the Cheshire cat
I stayed with them for quite a long while
getting drenched but with a constant smile
and then sadly it was time to go
what a lovely experience; my dreams overflow.

The bridge was built from 1751 to 1793. The architect was Jose Martin de Aldehuela.
The bridge is 98 metres high. It does not go all the way down, but stands above the gorge’s floor. The gorge is 120 metres under you, when you stand on the bridge. The many pillars of stone are needed to support the bridge, at such a height. During the Spanish Civil War, Ronda like most of inland Andalucia sat firmly in the republican zone against the fascist rising. In the early days of the war in 1936 chaos was widespread, and in Ronda as in many Andalucian towns and villages executions were widespread. Fascists from Ronda were clubbed and hurled to their deaths from the Puente Nuevo into the gorge, however the perpetrators were from Malaga, not from Ronda. In Ronda, as was the case in many towns and villages, executions were carried out by others from outside.
The Puente Nuevo is where the wind has many times blown people off it, including the architect.
Muchas gracias por ver estas fotos! El muro atraz con las flores es para fusilar cautivos.
Thank you so much for watching these fotos! The dark wall behind is for shooting prisoners.
The castle was built by the Venetians in the early 13th c entury. It is among the largest castles in the Mediterranean area. At the south edge of the castle a fortified islet floats. Bourtzi, as it is called, a prison and place of executions during the Turkish Occupation, was built in 1500 and is connected to the Sea Gate of the castle with a paved tiny road.
Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….

""In the Netherlands, Liberation Day (Dutch: Bevrijdingsdag) is celebrated each year on May the 5th to mark the end of the occupation by Nazi Germany during World War II.
The nation was liberated by Canadian forces, British infantry divisions, the British I Corps, the 1st Polish Armoured Division, American, Belgian, Dutch and Czechoslovak troops. Parts of the country, in particular the south-east, were liberated by the British Second Army which included American and Polish airborne forces (see Operation Market Garden) and French airbornes (see Operation Amherst). On 5 May 1945 the Canadian General Charles Foulkes and the German Commander-in-Chief Johannes Blaskowitz reached an agreement on the capitulation of German forces in the Netherlands in Hotel de Wereld in Wageningen. One day later the capitulation document was signed in the auditorium of Wageningen University located next door.
After liberation in 1945 Liberation Day was celebrated every five years. In 1990 the day was declared a national holiday when liberation would be remembered and celebrated every year.
On May 4 the Dutch hold "Dodenherdenking" Remembrance of the Dead for the people who fought and died during World War II and in wars in general. There are remembrance gatherings all over cities and in the country, the better-known at the National Monument on Dam Square in Amsterdam and at the Waalsdorpervlakte in the dunes near The Hague, one of the infamous Nazi execution places. Throughout the country two minutes of silence is observed at 8 pm.
On May 5 the liberation is celebrated and festivals are held at most places in the Netherlands with parades of veterans and musical festivals through the whole country."" - WiKi

Imposing Jacobean mansion and purported birthplace of Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry the Eighth. Originally Tudor, the present house was built by Sir Henry Hobart (1560-1626) on purchasing the estate in 1616. The architect was Robert Lyminge, who designed Hatfield House.
Legend has it that the headless ghost of Anne Boleyn haunts the estate every year on the anniversary of her execution on May 18th.

Tower Hill is infamous for the public execution of high status prisoners from the late 14th to the mid 18th century. The execution site on the higher ground north-west of the Tower of London moat is now occupied by Trinity Square Gardens. … — WikiPedia
Execution Rocks Light is a lighthouse in the middle of Long Island Sound on the border between New Rochelle and Sands Point, New York. It stands 55 feet tall, with a white light flashing every 10 seconds
The Registan was the heart of the ancient city of Samarkand of the Timurid dynasty, now in Uzbekistan. The name Rēgistan means "Sandy place" or "desert" in Persian.
The Registan was a public square, where people gathered to hear royal proclamations, heralded by blasts on enormous copper pipes called dzharchis - and a place of public executions. It is framed by three madrasahs (Islamic schools) of distinctive Islamic architecture.
The three madrasahs of the Registan are: the Ulugh Beg Madrasah (1417–1420), the Tilya-Kori Madrasah (1646–1660) and the Sher-Dor Madrasah (1619–1636). Madrasah is an Arabic term meaning school.
It was defended by a handful of Hungarian warriors from a huge Turkish army in 1552. Géza Gárdonyi pays homage to it in his novel Stars of Eger (Eclipse of the Crescent Moon).
.
The church of the bishopric of Eger founded by king St. Steven was built on the castle hill. It was rebuilt several times, first in Romanesque, later in Gothic style. The stone castle was built after the Mongolo-Tartarian invasion in the 13th c. and it was rebuilt many times until the 18th c.
Now it is home of István Dobó Castle Museum with several permanent exhibitions:
Gothic Bishop's Palace – the history of the castle of Eger;
Hall of the Heroes – exhibition in honour of the defenders of the castle in 1552.
Kazamaták (Underground corridors) – the undreground system of the castle, Romanesque and Gothic lapidarium
Ruin garden – renovated ruins of the Romanesque, Gothic and late-Gothic cathedral.
Picture gallery – works of 16th-19th c. painters.
Prison exhibition – tools of execution, torture, humiliation in past Hungary.
Waxworks
Thanks to the history of the castle and the exhibitions of the castle museum the castle is one of the most visited touristic sights in Hungary.

i didn't get any flowers for valentine's, can you believe it?!? ;)
nah, it's actually fine with me, valentine's only got big in germany a few years ago and hasn't been a major deal in our family ever. whatever you do today: just remember to express your love each and every day of the year in little gestures. i bet most people don't even know who valentine'sday was named after:
Saint Valentine: Holy Priest of Rome: The date of Saint Valentine's birth is not known. Along with Saint Marius and his family, Saint Valentine assisted the martyrs during the persecution they suffered under the rule of Claudius II (also known as Claudius the Goth and Claudius the Cruel). In addition, since Rome was at the time involved in many bloody and unpopular campaigns, the emperor found it difficult to recruit the male populace into joining his military leagues. Believing this to be because Roman men were adverse to leaving their loved ones or their familes, Claudius cancelled all marriages and engagements within the City of Rome. Saint Valentine and Saint Marius, however, continued to perform wedding ceremonies in secret. When is was discovered that Saint Valentine was defying the emperor's decree, he was apprehended and dispatched by Claudius to the Prefect of Rome who, being unable to force the saint to renounce Christianity, ordered that Valentine be clubbed, stoned and then beheaded. According to tradition, while Valentine waited in prison for his execution, he corresponded with those under his care by sending letters and love notes to his parishioners. It is also believed that while incarcerated, the Bishop fell in love with a young woman who visited him during his confinement. According to some sources, this was the blind daughter (whose name may have been Julia) of of Asterius, the jailer. It is said tht God enabled Valentine to miraculously restore the girl's sight. Popular belief indicates that Valentine's farewell message to his love contained a closing that has now transcended time: "From Your Valentine." The saint was executed on February 14 in either 269 A.D. or 270 A.D. In 270 A.D., Pope Julius I is said to have built a church near Ponte Mole in the saint's memory at a location once known as Porta Valentini and now called Porta del Popolo. The relic bones of this Saint Valentine, who may also have been a physician, are now housed within the Church of Saint Praxed in Rome.
valentine's, shmalentine's- have a wonderful day!

King Bart the Odiferous was royally upset that his well-planned wedding was so terribly interrupted. But there was a bright side to his misfortunes. In the pandemonium of the ruined ceremony, his soldiers had managed to capture a single forester outlaw! What luck! King Bart's favorite pastime was watching the executions, and he certainly wasn't going to miss this one. Unfortunately for the king, the rascally foresters don't take too kindly to their comrades being beheaded, and it seems as if they are about to foil his majesty's well-laid plans once again...
Ryan was kind enough to send Steven and I some of his new Executioner pieces, so obviously we had to build a cool scene with em! ;)

Oliver Cromwell (25 April 1599 – 3 September 1658) was an English military and political leader best known in England for his overthrow of the monarchy and temporarily turning England into a republican Commonwealth, and for his rule as Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland.
Cromwell was one of the commanders of the New Model Army which defeated the royalists in the English Civil War. After the execution of King Charles I in 1649, Cromwell dominated the short-lived Commonwealth of England, conquered Ireland and Scotland, and ruled as Lord Protector from 1653 until his death in 1658.

At Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota. Mount Rushmore National Memorial is centered on a sculpture carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills in Keystone, South Dakota, United States. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum created the sculpture's design and oversaw the project's execution from 1927 to 1941 with the help of his son Lincoln Borglum. The sculpture features the 60-foot (18 m) heads of Presidents George Washington (1732–1799), Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826), Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919), and Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865), as recommended by Borglum. The four presidents were chosen to represent the nation's birth, growth, development, and preservation, respectively.

Garfield has had a stay of execution. On the day before I was due to put him to sleep, I had a visit from his owner down the street. He advised me that it would mean a lot to his children to keep the cat alive. After speaking to my wife about the situation, we have now decided to keep Garfield and give him the medical attention and care that he badly needs. I will be getting him de-sexed in the next week or two to try and stop him getting into fights and then get him some other medical attention. 2:32pm, Sunday the 2nd of September, 2018.
Execution on Anoat | Dark Times RPG
“Many years ago during the Jedi Purge, Jedi Master Siuz Tregú led a group of clone troopers to the planet of Anoat. Orders were given to scout the dust ball and report any signs of life or movement from the Seps. That day however, was the day clones turned on the scum which were the Jedi and as we all know, they were taken out. Siuz, as the report says, was just the same. Another loose end.”
Here to show you a MOC me and Luca (luca_s_projects) worked on last weekend while I visited and attended DLA. This was built during some free time we had and did quite well. The MOC consists of the clones and Jedi as mentioned above, speeder design built by Luca and some terrain surrounded by a wall of bricks in DBG. Let us know what you think by commenting below. ~ Noah
