Painters and Dockers are a rock band formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1982.
Paul Stewart, singer-songwriter and trumpet player,Dave Pace (vocals and trumpet) and Mick Morris (vocals and sax) are all original members in the band which was named for the Federated Ship Painters and Dockers Union when they performed an early gig at a pub rock venue in Port Melbourne frequented by the union's members.[1] Some members of the band went on to form the Dili Allstars.
Their best-performing album Kiss My Art, peaked in the top 30 of the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) albums charts in 1988.[3] The album included two top 50 singles, "Nude School" and "Die Yuppie Die". In 2009, the band was inducted into the Music Victoria Hall of Fame.[6]
1982−1987: Beginnings, Love Planet and Bucket
Painters and Dockers formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1982 with five members, Vladimir Juric on guitars and backing vocals, Andy Marron on drums, Phil Nelson on bass guitar, Chris O'Connor on guitars and backing vocals, and mainstay Paul Stewart on lead vocals and trumpet.[1] One of the earliest gigs for the unnamed group was at a pub rock venue in Port Melbourne frequented by members of the Federated Ship Painters and Dockers Union so they chose Painters and Dockers for the event and retained the name thereafter.[1][7] In their earlier years, they were the headline act at the Port Melbourne Community Festival, and in a government initiative called Rockin' the Rails, where they played songs from the back of a train, as it stopped at various Melbourne stations, including Ringwood, Camberwell and Flinders Street.
Painters and Dockers' first recording, "Mohawk Baby", was released on independent label, Au Go Go records' compilation album, Asleep at the Wheel early in 1984.[1] Soon after, Marron was replaced by Colin Buckler on drums, and they released their debut album, Love Planet, which was produced by veteran hard rocker, Lobby Loyde and released on Big Time Records in 1984 and contained the tracks, "Basia!", also released as a single in March 1985, and "The Boy Who Lost His Jocks on Flinders Street Station". Joining after the album's release were Mick Morris on tenor saxophone and Dave Pace on trumpet / backing vocals, and with Stewart the horn section was called the Brassholes.[1] Music historian, Ian McFarlane, describes their sound as "adding an earthy R&B edge to the band's raucous, punk-infused power pop".[1]
A four-track EP, Kill Kill Kill was released in 1985 containing cover versions of "Kill Kill Kill" originally by The Sacred Cows on "The Groovy Guru" episode of US comedy TV series, Get Smart; Australian group Supernaut's "I Like it Both Ways"; The Ramones' "Do You Remember Rock'n'Roll Radio?" and The Saints' "Know Your Product".[1] Their first single, "Basia!", released in March 1985 on Big Time Records, was a paean to Basia Bonkowski—lyrics include "B she's so beautiful, A articulate too, S sensual, I international, Ay Ay" and "She's sitting there with her multi-coloured hair / She's sitting there with that multi-cultured stare"—who was presenter of SBS' music television show, Rock Around the World from 1982 to late 1984.
A live album, Bucket, released in October 1986 on the band's own label Dock Records (distributed by Shock Records) and Big Time Records, featured one of their live pub rock performances.
1988–1997: Kiss My Art, Touch One, Touch All and The Things that Matter
The band's second studio album, Kiss My Art, was released in August 1988 on White Label Records (a subsidiary of Mushroom Records) and peaked at No. 23 on the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) albums charts in September 1988.[3] The album spawned four singles, "Nude School", "Die Yuppie Die", "Love on Your Breath" and "Safe Sex", and the first two achieved top 50 chart success.[4][5] and were accompanied with video clips directed by ex Hunters & Collectors Geoff Crosby.[9] The album was again produced by Lobby Loyde,[2] except for "Nude School" which was produced by Francois Taviaux aka Franswah.
Their third studio album, Touch One, Touch All, was released in December 1989 spawning the related singles, "Dirty Filthy Rock'n'Roll" in November, and "Eat Shit Die" in May 1990.[1] Neither album nor singles peaked into the top 50.[5] Morris left in 1989 and Darren Garth had replaced Juric on guitar by early 1990; the band undertook a Canadian tour promoting the album.
In December 1991 they released the mini-album, Hickory Dickory Dock with its track "Merry Christmas, Carol" and the single, "New World Order".[1] Nervous '90s appeared in June 1992 and contained six studio tracks and three live tracks recorded with the Salvation Army Brass Band.[1] During 1992 they became involved in Performers Releasing Information about Clean Syringes (PRICS), which included running workshops and gigs on safe sex and drug use.[1] In 1993, Garth left and Colin Badger joined on guitar and backing vocals, Painters and Dockers undertook the Australia-wide Return to the Love Planet tour and released a pro gay single, "I Know Better Queens than That".[1] The EP, Hickory Dickory Dock, and the album The Things that Matter were released in 1994.
1998–present: The Things that Matter
A mini-album, Advance Australia Where?, was released in August 1998 with the single "You're Going Home in the Back of a Divi Van".[1] By that stage, original members, Nelson and O'Connor had left, mainstay Stewart now with Badger and Buckler were joined by Paul Calvert on bass guitar, Sonja Parkinson on trombone and backing vocals, and Jenny Pineapple on saxophone and backing vocals.[1] This line-up appeared at Mushroom 25 Live concert in November to celebrate the record label's anniversary, their track "Divi Van" appeared on the related VHS release, Mushroom 25 Live: The Concert of the Century.[1]
In 2009 Stewart featured on the ABC Compass religious program following a liver transplant with the episode featuring Painters And Dockers songs Nude School and Die Yuppie Die. Stewart is actively involved in fundraising for the Alma Nuns, a Timorese-based Catholic order who care for disabled children and orphans.[
On 20 November 2009, early members, Paul Stewart, Chris O'Connor, Colin Buckler, Vladimir Juric, David Pace and Mick Morris, with Michael Badger (not an original member) reformed for a one-off show at the Prince Bandroom in St Kilda, Melbourne, where the band was inducted into Music Victoria's Hall of Fame.
In 2017, Painters and Dockers undertook their 30th Anniversary, Kiss My Art tour.

Minnesota Transfer Railway (predecessor of Minnesota Commercial Railway) Form 16A and St. Paul Union Depot Company Form 118- Time Report of Yard Enginemen and Switchmen- was used to record work time and service of yard enginemen and switchmen.
Minnesota Transfer Railway was incorporated in 1883 and located in the Midway area of St. Paul. The railroad was owned by the railroads that then served the Twin Cities--Chicago, Burlington & Quincy; Chicago Great Western; Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha; Great Northern; Chicago, Milwaukee, Saint Paul; Minneapolis & St; Louis; Northern Pacific; Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific; and Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Sault St. Marie. Minnesota Transfer handled interchange between the owning railroads to lessen congestion in the Twin Cities.
The above nine railroads joined to form the Saint Paul Union Depot Company in 1879 to better serve railroad passengers in St. Paul by building and operating a single passenger terminal- the St. Paul Depot.

With the vacuum cleaner running, push the frame and the hot plastic down onto the mould until the frame seals against the weather stripping -- and BAM, the plastic slams down onto the mould.
Turn off the vacuum and give the plastic a minute to cool.
Hey, this thing works pretty good. I got a couple ideas of stuff to make with it now, like custom model boat hulls, or maybe a storm trooper costume...

I wanted to get back to the set I started earlier, Form @ Home, where I try to capture the mood and feeling of some things we’ve got at home. This time I tried to use a cooler, blueish toned color instead of the sepia. Again, I'm trying to find form and details, capturing the mood and feeling of the object. For this I used the 5D with the 100mm L IS macro lens. All shot handheld with available light.
The limestone forming Batu Caves is said to be around 400 million years old. Some of the cave entrances were used as shelters by the indigenous Temuan people (a tribe of Orang Asli).
As early as 1860, Chinese settlers began excavating guano for fertilising their vegetable patches. However, they became famous only after the limestone hills were recorded by colonial authorities including Daly and Syers as well as American Naturalist, William Hornaday in 1878.
Batu Caves was promoted as a place of worship by K. Thamboosamy Pillai, an Indian trader. He was inspired by the 'vel'-shaped entrance of the main cave and was inspired to dedicate a temple to Lord Murugan within the caves. In 1890, Pillai, who also founded the Sri Mahamariamman Temple, Kuala Lumpur, installed the murti (consecrated statue) of Sri Murugan Swami in what is today known as the Temple Cave. Since 1892, the Thaipusam festival in the Tamil month of Thai (which falls in late January/early February) has been celebrated there.
Wooden steps up to the Temple Cave were built in 1920 and have since been replaced by 272 concrete steps. Of the various cave temples that comprise the site, the largest and best known is the Temple Cave, so named because it houses several Hindu shrines beneath its high vaulted ceiling.
Una forma inusual para un hongo, ¿verdad?. incluso hay algunos de colores muy brillantes como amarillos o rojos. No son plantas, no son animales.... son hongos.
Creo que esta especie es Lentaria byssiseda... ¿sera?.
En estos días los bosques se convierten en buenos lugares para buscar estos organismos, La Estanzuela es uno de ellos.
We are not particularly rich in fungus or mushrooms, I was so surprised to see this one on the forest ground in La Estanzuela Park. I think this is a very unusual shape for a mushroom.
The River Mersey is a river in North West England. It is around 70 miles (113 km) long, stretching from Stockport, Greater Manchester, and ending at Liverpool Bay, Merseyside. For centuries, it formed part of the ancient county divide between Lancashire and Cheshire.
The Mersey is formed from three tributaries: the River Etherow, the River Goyt, and the River Tame. The modern accepted start of the Mersey is at the confluence of the Tame and Goyt, in central Stockport, Greater Manchester. However, older definitions, and many older maps, place its start a few miles up the Goyt; for example the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica states "It is formed by the junction of the Goyt and the Etherow a short distance below Marple in Cheshire on the first-named stream." The 1784 John Stockdale map shows the River Mersey extending to Mottram, and forming the boundary between Cheshire and Derbyshire.
From the Runcorn Gap, the river widens into a large estuary, which is three miles (5 km) wide at its widest point near Ellesmere Port. The course of the river then heads north, with Liverpool to the east and the Wirral Peninsula to the west. The Manchester Ship Canal enters the river at Eastham Locks. The eastern part of this estuary is much affected by silting, and part of it is marked on modern maps as dry land instead of as tidal. These wetlands are of importance to wildlife, and are listed as a Ramsar site.
The estuary then narrows to flow between Liverpool and Birkenhead, where it is constricted to a width of 1.2 kilometres (0.7 mi), between Albert Dock in Liverpool and the Woodside ferry terminal in Birkenhead. The river then continues into Liverpool Bay on the Irish Sea, after a total course of 68 miles.
The Estuary is also the home of Seaforth Dock, a Freeport on the Liverpool side of the river, where the river meets Liverpool Bay. The dock construction began in the 1960s opening in 1971. The dock deals with around 500,000 containers, 1,236,000 tonnes of oil, over 2.5 million tonnes of grain and animal feed, 452,000 tonnes of wood per year and with 25% of all container traffic between UK and USA making the port one of the most successful in the world. It is known world over as the "Atlantic Gateway". Liverpool was the first UK port with radar assisted operations.
On the Liverpool side of the estuary Liverpool Docks stretch for over 12 kilometres (7.5 mi). This is the largest enclosed interconnected dock system in the world. American author Herman Melville described Liverpool Docks as being comparable to the pyramids in the vast scale of the construction. The docks were built out into the river bed. The Mersey Docks and Harbour Board owned a granite quarry in Scotland to source the stone for the quays, so much was used in the construction.
The conurbation on both sides of the river in this area is known as Merseyside.
At 4 metres (13.1 ft) neap tide to 10 metres (32.8 ft) spring tide, the River Mersey has the second highest tidal range in Britain – second only to the River Severn. The bottleneck in the river estuary forces water to flow faster creating a deep channel at the narrows.
The strong river water currents has led to proposals for the future construction of a tidal barrage to generate electricity and create another crossing. Very high spring tides often generate a tidal bore starting at Hale penetrating as far upstream as Warrington.

View at Felix Gonzalez-Torres "Specific Objects without Specific Form" retrospective at Wiels, february 2010.
WIELS premieres a major traveling retrospective of Felix Gonzalez-Torres’ oeuvre, including both rarely seen and more known artworks, while proposing an experimental form for the exhibition that is indebted to the artist’s own radical conception of the artwork.
Gonzalez-Torres (American, b. Cuba 1957-1996), one of the most influential artists of his generation, settled in New York in the early 1980s, where he studied art and began his practice as an artist before his untimely death of AIDS related complications. His work can be seen in critical relationship to Conceptual art and Minimalism, mixing political activism, emotional affect, and deep formal concerns in a wide range of media, including drawings, sculpture, and public billboards*, often using ordinary objects as a starting point—clocks, mirrors, light fixtures. Amongst his most famous artworks are his piles of candy and paper stacks from which viewers are allowed to take away a piece. They are premised, like so much of what he did, on instability and potential for change: artworks without an already preset or specific form. The result is a profoundly human body of work, intimate and vulnerable even as it destabilizes so many seemingly unshakable certainties (the artwork as fixed, the exhibition as a place to look but not touch, the author as the ultimate form-giver).
To present the oeuvre of an artist who put fragility, the passage of time, and the questioning of authority at the center of his artworks, the exhibition will be entirely re-installed at each of its venues halfway through its duration by a different invited artist whose practice has been informed by Felix Gonzalez-Torres’ work. A first version of Felix Gonzalez-Torres. Specific Objects without Specific Form by curator Elena Filipovic will open to the public and on March 5, 2010, the artist Danh Vo will re-install the exhibition, effectively making an entirely new show.

On assignment covering the dress rehearsal of the 2017: The Passion Play.
"The film opens in Gethsemane at night as Jesus Christ (Caviezel), at the height of his cause, prays while his disciples Peter, James, and John (James's brother) sleep. After he wakes them and tells them to pray, Satan appears in a hooded androgynous, albino form, and tempts him with reasonable doubt, stating - "it is not right for one man to die for their (humanity's) sins." Ignoring it and praying on, Jesus' sweat turns into blood and drips to the ground while a snake emerges from Satan's guise. Jesus hears his disciples call out for him, and he rebukes Satan by stomping on the snake's head, and Satan vanishes.
After receiving a bribe of thirty pieces of silver, Judas, another of Jesus' disciples, approaches with a group of temple guards and betrays Jesus (by confirmation of his identity) with a simple kiss on the cheek. As the armed guards move in to arrest Jesus, Peter draws his dagger and slashes off the ear of Malchus, one of the guards and a servant of the high priest Caiaphas. Jesus, in turn, heals the ear as he reprimands Peter for his actions. As the disciples flee, the guards secure Jesus, and beat him during the journey to the Sanhedrin.
John informs Mary (mother of Jesus) and Mary Magdalene of the arrest, while Peter follows Jesus and his captors at a distance. Caiaphas holds trial over the objection of some of the other priests, who are expelled from the court. When questioned by Caiaphas if he is the Son of God, Jesus replies, "I am." Caiaphas is horrified, tears his robes in outrage, and Jesus is condemned to death for blasphemy. Peter, secretly watching, is confronted by the surrounding mob for being a follower of Jesus, and he angrily denies this three times. But after cursing at the mob during the third denial, a sobbing Peter flees after remembering that Jesus had foretold this coping of a defense. Meanwhile, a guilt-ridden Judas attempts to return the money he was paid to have Jesus freed, but is refused by the priests. Tormented by demons, he flees the city, finds solitude, and hangs himself from a tree with a rope he finds on a dead donkey at dawn.
Caiaphas brings Jesus before Pontius Pilate to be condemned to death, but after questioning Jesus and finding no fault, a sympathetic Pilate instead relays him to the court of Herod Antipas, as Jesus is from Antipas' ruling town of Nazareth, Galilee. After Jesus is again found not guilty and returned, Pilate offers the crowd options for either him to chastise Jesus, or release him. He then attempts to have Jesus freed by the peoples' choice, between Jesus and a violent criminal Barabbas. To his dismay, the crowd demands to have Barabbas freed and Jesus killed. In an attempt to appease the moment, Pilate orders that he simply be punished. Jesus is brutally scourged, abused, and mocked by the Roman guards as "king of the Jews" with a crown of thorns. However, Caiaphas, with the crowds' verbal backing, continues to demand that Jesus be crucified as a heretic and Barabbas released. Admonished, Pilate washes his hands, takes no responsibility of the incident, and reluctantly orders Jesus' crucifixion. During the course of events, Satan watches Jesus' bloody sufferings with great interest. A dismayed Pilate watches the march, while his wife Claudia, who knows of Jesus' status as a holy man, comforts him. As Jesus labors to carry a heavy wooden cross along the Via Dolorosa to Calvary, a woman avoids the escort of soldiers, and wipes Jesus' face with her veil. Jesus is beaten and pressed by the guards until the unwilling Simon of Cyrene is forced into carrying the cross with him. At the end of their travel, with his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and others witnessing, Jesus is crucified. The very act seems to affect the weathering condition of the earth itself.
As he hangs from the cross, Jesus prays to God asking forgiveness for the people who did this to him, and redeems a criminal as a saint who is crucified beside him. Succumbing to impending death, Jesus gives up his spirit and dies. A single droplet of rain falls from the sky to the ground, triggering a sudden earthquake which destroys the Holy temple and rips the cloth covering the Holy of Holies in two, to the horror of Caiaphas and the other priests. Satan is shown screaming in agonizing defeat. Jesus' lifeless body is taken down from the cross, and entombed. In the end, the healed body of Jesus rises from the dead, and exits the tomb resurrected."

This form of sales kept the tradition of the old days when farmers from the surrounding villages came to town to sell their goods. Since ancient times there were no freezers and refrigerators goods could last no longer than one week. So in most cities once a week was organized that kind of public sale of goods.
Nowadays majority are sold good craftsmen and small tradesmen.
Some of the vendors travel from one city to another.

The Leeds Waits were formed in 1983 to accompany a historical dance group for a wagon performance of the Chester mystery play cycle at The University of Leeds. Over time the group has added instruments and repertoire for all occasions which spans five centuries. Not just a wind band featuring shawms, sackbut, cornett, curtal, bagpipes, crumhorns, racket and recorders, the group also play percussion and strings, such as fiddle, harp, cittern and hurdy-gurdy. The Leeds Waits have played for HM the Queen, for Lord Mayors and at many historic buildings in England and beyond, including York Minster, Edinburgh Castle and The Tower of London.

Exposition
Du 14/06/2017 au 10/09/2017
L’exposition Le Rêve des formes, présentée à l’occasion du vingtième anniversaire du Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains, est conçue comme un paysage imaginaire, un jardin monstrueux où se cultivent des formes périssables et des surfaces en germination, des organismes protubérants et de plates silhouettes.
Les artistes et chercheurs rassemblés dans Le Rêve des formes témoignent de leur rencontre avec de nouvelles possibilités de représentation, issues de découvertes scientifiques et techniques récentes, qui bouleversent notre façon de voir et de montrer. En renouvelant grâce à cela le champ du perceptible – nanotechnologies, imagerie de synthèse, scan 3D, stéréolithographie… –, ces nouvelles visualisations nous laissent présumer de géométries encore inconnues.
Des images, des transcriptions, des modélisations, des formes spéculatives produites par les inventeurs et savants des sciences prospectives, issues des mathématiques, de la physique, de la biologie, de l’optique ou de la chimie par exemple, rejoignent ou inspirent des œuvres qui résultent des greffes opérées entre art et science, entre spéculation et invention, par une vingtaine d’artistes contemporains.
Avec : Francis Alÿs, Hicham Berrada & Sylvain Courrech du Pont & Simon de Dreuille, Michel Blazy, Juliette Bonneviot, Dora Budor, Damien Cadio, Julian Charrière, Sylvie Chartrand, Clément Cogitore, Hugo Deverchère, Bertrand Dezoteux, Mimosa Echard, Alain Fleischer, Fabien Giraud & Raphaël Siboni, Bruno Gironcoli, Spiros Hadjidjanos, Patrick Jouin, Ryoichi Kurokawa, Annick Lesne & Julien Mozziconacci, Adrien Missika, Jean-Luc Moulène, Marie-Jeanne Musiol, Katja Novitskova, Jonathan Pêpe & Thibaut Rostagnat & David Chavalarias, Olivier Perriquet & Jean-Paul Delahaye, Arnaud Petit, Jean-François Peyret & Alain Prochiantz, Gaëtan Robillard, Gwendal Sartre, SMITH & Antonin-Tri Hoang, Anicka Yi
Frontier Airlines began life as Monarch Airlines, formed in 1946 with two Douglas DC-3s to fly local routes in Colorado, from its base in Denver. Over the next four years, Monarch took over two other regional airlines, Challenger Airlines and Arizona Airways, and changed its name to Frontier in 1950.
Frontier soon distinguished itself by serving small cities and towns in the Rocky Mountains region, expanding from Billings, Montana in the north to El Paso, Texas in the south. To replace its aging DC-3s, the Convair 340 was ordered in the late 1950s; to extend the life of these aircraft, they were converted to turboprop power as the Convair 580, for which Frontier was the launch customer and one of the largest operators.
In 1968, Frontier acquired its first jets, Boeing 727s, the same year that it bought out Central Airlines, moving Frontier out of the Rocky Mountain West for the first time. The 727s proved inefficient for the small airports Frontier served, and the fleet standardized on the 737, which was better suited.
Frontier gained a reputation for friendliness and closeness to the airports it served, though by 1970, it was second only to Pan American in number of airports served for an American carrier. It also became the first domestic American airline to hire a female pilot.
Deregulation was to hurt Frontier, beginning in 1980: whereas the airline enjoyed a near monopoly on small Western destinations, many of these small towns were not economically viable for business. In the larger towns, Frontier soon faced competition from Continental, United and smaller startup airlines. An effort to expand service to the US East Coast, Mexico and Canada had mixed results, pitting a regional carrier against the bigger national airlines. Frontier employees voluntarily took pay cuts to keep the airline viable, and were not pleased when Frontier launched Frontier Horizon in 1984. This was an effort to create a low-cost airline associated with Frontier that offered nonstop service to the cities of the East and Midwest—a market already dominated by Delta and United. Frontier Horizon only lasted a year before it was shut down.
By 1985, Frontier was in dire straits. In an effort to save it, Frontier was bought by People Express, who intended to keep it a separate entity concentrated in the West, while People Express served the East. This might have worked, if People Express had itself not been bought by Continental in 1986; Continental was buying out several small airlines, and all of them were absorbed into the parent airline. Frontier shut down operations in September 1986.
Frontier’s story was not yet over, however. Continental, itself facing bankruptcy, shut down its Denver operations in 1993 to save money, leaving many Western destinations without service. A group of former Frontier employees began a new Frontier Airlines, also with Boeing 737s. This Frontier began operations in 1994. It soon became known for each one of its aircraft having a unique animal photograph on the tail, each representing an animal of the American West. Frontier transitioned to an all-Airbus A319/320 fleet by 2001, survived a bankruptcy in 2008 and brief ownership by Republic Airways (at the time, part of US Airways) before once more becoming an independent airline. Frontier continues in operation today
This 727, N1973, was one of Frontier Horizon's seven aircraft. While Frontier Horizon retained Frontier's logo and its red/orange cheatline, it used overall bare metal rather than Frontier's white tops. Originally built for American Airlines in 1964, it went to World Airways after its brief service with Frontier Horizon. Later converted to a freighter, it ended its days in an Angolan scrapyard in 2000. I may have flown in this aircraft from Atlanta to Denver in 1983.

D’Leedon Condominium | Singapore
Designed by internationally renowned Pritzker Architecture Prize winner Zaha Hadid, D’Leedon Condominium is shaped into sweeping fluid forms—a style that characterizes the intricate work of one of the greatest Architects of our time.
Having found this vantage point, I was in awe of the masterpiece in front of me and was stoked to have finally immortalized it in a frame.

London Midland & Scottish Princess Coronation Locomotive 6235 was built in 1939 originally in streamlined form. When built the class were the most powerful passenger locomotives in the World. The labour intensive streamlining was removed in 1946, it passed to ownership of British Railways in 1948 and renumbered 46235.
the loco was withdrawn from traffic in 1964 and after a campaign from enthusiasts was purchased for display for the Birmingham Museum of Science and Industry. This was a wonderful old museum where the loco moved back and fore on a small section of track pulled by an electric motor. In 1997 the loco was moved to the new trendy Thinktank science centre where it is on static display cramped in the corner of the ground floor.
Only 3 Princess Coronation locos still exist "Duchess of Hamilton" and "Duchess of Sutherland" both escaped the cutter's torch as they were bought by Billy Butlin for display at two of his holiday parks. Hamilton later became part of the National Railway Collection at York where it has been retro fitted with the original streamlining.

El total de participantes fue de 27 personas (12 hombres y 15 mujeres), de
edades comprendidas entre los 25 y los 50 años. El grupo estaba formado por
responsables políticos/as, técnicos/as de los distintos Ayuntamientos y la
Mancomunidad: presidente, gerente, dinamizadores/as deportivos/as y
socioculturales, representando así a los diferentes Municipios de la
Mancomunidad: Valencia de Alcántara, San Vicente de Alcántara, Santiago de
Alcántara, Cedillo y Herreruela.
Por lo que respecta a la representación institucional, en este grupo de debate
contamos con la presencia de la Directora del Instituto de la Juventud de
Extremadura, Susana Martín Gijón, el Presidente de la Mancomunidad Sierra de
San Pedro, Juan Garlito Batalla y el Alcalde de Valencia de Alcántara, Cándido
Moreno Morgado.
A. CONOCIMIENTO DE LA REALIDAD JUVENIL
¿Cómo ven a los/as jóvenes de la Mancomunidad?
La mayoría de los/as técnicos/as, responsables políticos/as y agentes sociales
afirman que los/as jóvenes de la Mancomunidad son pasivos/as, no tienen
objetivos claros y son despreocupados/as.
Consideran que están desorientados/as por su futuro laboral, por no saber
cuáles son los estudios idóneos que les garanticen una estabilidad en el futuro.
Una juventud apática y desilusionada, con pocas habilidades sociales,
desorganizada y conformista, con poca iniciativa y sin responsabilidades.
No obstante, otro grupo considera que tenemos una juventud muy preparada y
bastante emprendedora, activa y responsable, sincera, participativa y con
mucho potencial.
Unos/as jóvenes inquietos/as, inteligentes y con una energía que necesitan
encauzar en alternativas que se ajusten a sus demandas, intereses e
inquietudes.
En general, podemos afirmar que había dos grupos perfectamente
diferenciados, el primero de ellos representado por los/las técnicos/as,
responsables políticos y/o agentes sociales que tienen una percepción bastante
negativa de los/las jóvenes de la Mancomunidad y el otro, el de los/las
técnicos/as, responsables políticos/as y/o agentes sociales que tienen una
percepción más positiva de la juventud de la Mancomunidad y la consideran
dinámica, dispuesta y comprometida.
B. PROGRAMAS Y RECURSOS DISPONIBLES
En este bloque se exponen las conclusiones del grupo en torno a tres
cuestiones: ¿existen programas comarcales de juventud? ¿en qué consisten? ¿y
estructuras de juventud?
Al igual que con el primer bloque del debate, también en este hubo dos grupos
con opiniones diferentes, por un lado están los/as participantes que opinan que
no existen programas comarcales de juventud, alegando como motivos la falta
de medios y de interés por parte de las autoridades y de los/as técnicos/as. Por
otro lado se encuentra el grupo que expone que a nivel local y mancomunado
existen los siguientes programas: Pueblos (aunque éste concretamente
suscitó el reproche de que son actuaciones puntuales y con una duración muy
limitada para ver resultados concretos), dinamización deportiva, orientación
laboral y autoempleo, diferentes actividades de ocio y tiempo libre, educación
en valores, fomento del asociacionismo juvenil, jornadas de educación y
seguridad vial, planes de fomento de la lectura, actividades culturales, viajes,
convivencias y encuentros comarcales, talleres de verano, sala de ordenadores
y biblioteca.
La mayoría de los/las participantes señalan como una importante y nueva
creación en su Mancomunidad, el Consejo Comarcal de la Juventud, que está
comenzando a preparar sus actividades y en el que tienen puesta mucha
confianza de cara al futuro.
C. PROPUESTAS DE ACCIONES, COMPROMISOS
(Trascripción literal de las propuestas)
o
Según los/as dinamizadores/as deportivos/as se necesita personal
especializado en deportes o bailes de moda que roten por los pueblos,
porque ellos/as no los dominan y es difícil impartirlos.
o
Proponen que todas las asociaciones, concejalías de juventud, técnicos/as,
etc. deben unirse y trabajar juntos/as, por este motivo confían en el Consejo
Comarcal de Juventud.
o
Solicitan más personal técnico y mejores infraestructuras, al igual que sacar
más partido a las infraestructuras que ya existen y que no se potencian
demasiado.
o
Las diferencias materiales entre las distintas localidades de la
Mancomunidad también preocupaba a los/las participantes, insistieron en
que deberían organizarse actividades que se extiendan por todos los
municipios y no sólo por los más grandes. Por este motivo, solicitan la
puesta en marcha de actividades que no dependan del número de
jóvenes existentes, porque hay que tener en cuenta la escasez de
niños/as en algunos municipios.
o
Pasar encuestas para ver si los/as principales beneficiarios/as conocen los
programas, porque hay buenos programas, pero los desconocen.
o
El técnico de juventud de la Mancomunidad opina que los/as jóvenes
necesitan más información y acceso a actividades para su edad, además
añade que a las instituciones les falta presupuesto.
o
El Presidente de la Mancomunidad está muy preocupado por el elevado
índice de jóvenes de la Mancomunidad que pese a estar muy bien
formados/as se marchan a trabajar fuera. Él cree que hay que potenciar de
alguna manera diferentes programas que provoquen que los/as jóvenes se
queden a trabajar en la Mancomunidad. Insiste en elaborar un plan
formativo que desarrolle una política económica y proponer desde ahí una
serie de actividades de formación para intentar que los/as jóvenes no se
vayan fuera.
o
En cuanto a los compromisos: El presidente de la Mancomunidad afirma “la
juventud es el futuro, porque es lo que tenemos en casa y hay que
mantenerlo”. Asimismo, el concejal de Herreruela, dice que las políticas de
juventud existen en los ayuntamientos y que ellos/as están elaborando un
plan de juventud, fomentan las inquietudes de los y las jóvenes y el
asociacionismo juvenil.
Sesión con Jóvenes
PERFIL DEL GRUPO DE JÓVENES
Participaron un total de 42 personas, 22 chicas y 20 chicos, con edades
comprendidas entre los 13 y los 26 años. La mayoría son estudiantes y algún/a
trabajador/a. Los municipios representados fueron: Valencia de Alcántara, San
Vicente de Alcántara, Santiago de Alcántara, Cedillo y Herreruela.
A. VALORACIÓN DEL III PLAN DE JUVENTUD
Actividades en las que han participado:
Los/as participantes manifestaron haber participado en las siguientes
actividades: el Día de la Mancomunidad, excursiones, rutas nocturnas,
actividades deportivas (torneo de fútbol), manualidades, talleres de graffiti,
educación vial, conciertos: extremúsica y otros, camping, el botellón dicen que
es una de las cosas que más les divierte, etc.
Valoración de las actividades:
Les gustó mucho el Día de la Mancomunidad, al igual que todas las actividades
deportivas, por lo que insisten en que continúen e incluyan más variedad.
Los conciertos también tienen mucho éxito entre ellos/as aunque les gustaría
que hubiera más y con diferentes estilos de música.
Todos/as valoran muy positivamente las actividades que han realizado en el
marco del III Plan de Juventud.
B. ANÁLISIS DE LA REALIDAD JOVEN
Principales problemas de los y las jóvenes:
Se repite con frecuencia que existe “escasa información sobre recursos y pocas
actividades de ocio en los pueblos pequeños”. Destacan también la escasez de
empleo para todos y todas las/los jóvenes que lo demandan, el tener que
abandonar los pueblos por la ausencia de trabajo, no poder independizarse, les
preocupa mucho la existencia de empresas que no les dan de alta en la
seguridad social.
Opinan que la Mancomunidad, Concejalías y Ayuntamientos deberían poner
más de su parte porque tienen pocos recursos y lugares de ocio y tiempo libre,
además, cuando la Mancomunidad prepara actividades no tienen muy en
cuenta los gustos de la juventud y no hay talleres en las casas de cultura.
También afirman que la mayoría de los/as jóvenes no quieren asumir
responsabilidades y que sí hay actividades, pero tienen poco interés en ellas.
Añaden que tampoco se implican con el medio ambiente.

Don Stephen Senanayake (October 20, 1884–22 March 1952) was an independence activist who formed the Sri Lankan United National Party, which demanded independence from Britain. He became the first Prime Minister of what was then Ceylon (later called Sri Lanka) from 1947 to 1952.
Brought up in a devout Buddhist family, he entered a Christian school on his father's orders, and converted to Christianity. An intelligent student, he quickly found work in the Surveyor General's office before working as a supervisor on his father's plantation.
He entered politics at the age of thirty-eight, and in 1931 became Minister of Agriculture and Lands. He combatted Sri Lanka's agricultural problems effectively, and established the LDO, an agricultural policy that countered Sri Lanka's rice problems. This policy earned him respect, and he continued to be a minister for fifteen years. He also enforced "Agricultural Modernisation", which increased production output. However, he resigned in 1946 and fought for Sri Lanka's independence. In only a year he succeeded, and was elected as Sri Lanka's first Prime Minister. He refused a knighthood, but maintained good relations with Britain. He boldly made plans to spread out the population, and his Gal Oya scheme relocated over 250,000 people. His other plans included the increase of hydroelectric power, but he was killed in an unexpected horse-riding accident at the age of sixty-eight.
His son, Dudley Shelton Senanayake (1911–1973), succeeded him as Prime Minister in 1952, followed by another relative, Sir John Kotelawala (1897–1980) in 1953, but this nine-year family dynasty was ended by a landslide victory for Solomon West Ridgeway Dias Bandaranaike in 1956, campaigning under the "Sinhala Only" slogan. Dudley Senanayake regained the Prime Ministership in 1960, and again from 1965 to 1970).
D.S Senanayake is respected by Sinhalese and some muslims. However, Tamils were not happy with his citizenship laws that disenfanchised virtually all Tamils of recent Indian origin living in the central highlands. His bold agricultural plans and pro-Western policies, however, attracted criticism for their modern and untraditional nature. Under his family's leadership, Sri Lanka's economy flourished, and D.S Senanayake holds is still known as "The Father of Sri Lanka". He was however later linked to the Church of Scienttology, and theories exist suggesting that his death was far more sinister than first thought.
