I know this is not the most fascinating picture, but I am uploading it (most likely going to delete it later) because I want to know if any of you could help me out. I use Aperture to edit my photos and I tried going into Silver Ex Pro (or whatever the hell it is) to edit a picture into black and white (As you can see by my pictures, I LOVE black and white) but while opening Silverex Pro Its been frozen for about a week now (I lose track of time fairly easily) thinking "Oh, it'll just be a little while." Nope, its been a week. I cannot access any of my other pictures in Aperture. I cannot quit it (It won't let me) I've tried to restart my computer. No luck. Because Aperture is open and won't quit I cannot restart my computer. So if ANY of you have any tips and tricks on how I can fix this I would deeply appreciate it.
So excuse my absence until I can figure this stupid problem out.
And of course here are my other social media sites
My Facebook I Twitter I Tumblr
Actually, I love warm weather…where the hell did it go?…doesn’t hafta be ‘hot’…but I’m still in sweats, slippers and a Henley…this is ridiculous…
I know this is a subject that we are "not allowed" to talk about, as it is taboo for most people. If this is you please do not read further as it will just upset you. I know I have never been allowed to talk about this, those close to me forbid me to broach the subject. This is why I have decided to be free here - I can make this decision to have a voice.
I’ve lived for about 20 years under abuse (in my mid-twenties now). I was abused as a child by two different men, they were not aware of each other. I finally broke free from that when I was 17 and spent 2 years being “free” in denial. I met a boy who saw the signs of abuse in me and purposefully chose me to date (he told me this). He was cruel and abusive to me in every way that you can imagine for 5 (almost 6) years. I didn’t know I could get away. I was used to being stuck, I was conditioned to react this way while I was a toddler.
I didn’t even know I was in trouble or needed help until it was too late.
I never reached out for help even though I knew I was suffering mentally and had PTSD by the time I was 15. I didn't know I had an eating disorder for a long time, until people started noticing my ribs sticking out and I was forced into an eating disorder program. I didn't know I was depressed and suicidal until I decided to kill myself a few months ago. I was very effectively living in denial.
But now I am trying to get better - I am going to therapy and working on my mental health. I really want to erase the past. I want a fresh start, one that doesn't include me, an innocent child, on the sexual menu for grown men.
I'm a realist though and I know I have to accept my past and try to live in a world full of people who I do not trust.
It is my hope that other people might see this image and hear my story and gain strength to tell their own - or flee from the people who are hurting them. It is possible to get help. There are good people out there, you just have to look really hard to find them - it is worth the effort.
The statement that is pictured was said to me by the second man to sexually abuse me.

Artist Judy Chicago (1939- ) created a body of work titled "Power Play" in which she explored the male expression of emotion. Throughout history, female figures have been rendered as vessels of emotion, but Chicago wondered how portraying emotion in the male embodiment could help us better understand why there is so much violence and trauma in the world.
Judy Chicago (born Judy Cohen in Chicago) has worked mainly in California. Her work has been closely associated with
a phase of the feminist movement that began having a powerful impact on American and global culture in the 1970's.
This painting was seen and photographed on display at "Judy Chicago - A Retrospective"....an exhibit at The De Young Fine Arts Museum in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park.
PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). The best way to describe the effects of PTSD is by imagining a beautiful stained glass window in a peaceful setting. Imagine how the light shines through each colorful pane, lighting up the whole room with wondrous colors and delight. While in the midst of your peaceful ruminations a stone is thrown through the window, breaking it. In some cases many stones are thrown through the stain glass window, until all that remains is the window frame and colored shards of glass littering the floor. In this broken state the window stays, even if it can be repaired it will never be the same. Some windows can be repaired to look beautiful and complete but most are never fully repaired.
The glass shards littering the floor serve as a constant reminder of what your life used to be and what it could have been. The empty window frame is the person, broken, in pain, and living in complete terror.
I am in that state of total disrepair, with my window completely broken and no hope of ever getting fixed. I know that I am not who I was supposed to be. My life trajectory has been forever altered - forever shattered - because of the traumatic things that happened to me over many years. I did not choose to develop PTSD, it chose me.
I have tried every method, every coping skill, and seen many doctors, but I am still stuck in this broken half-living state, suffering every day (for years) with the effects of PTSD. I have been begging for help from everyone and trying everything I know, yet no help has been given me. I feel truly stuck and alone in this horrible world; I do not like it here. I do not feel safe and I want to leave this empty void that we call life. I struggle every day with choosing a pain-filled disappointing life or gaining my only hope at freedom, through death.
I want to be the innocent, pretty, hopeful, energetic, trusting girl that I once was. I want to believe that joy and safety can be had in this world. But how can I get back something that I am sure is lost forever?
The window panes replacing my once beautiful stained glass window are colored dark with evil, as I feel inside that I am. The window has been moved into a cold dark basement where no light will ever shine, and where no one will ever see the broken mess that once was a colorful scene of innocence and hope.

A week ago Tio challenged us all to shoot in water. This is my first try.
The poor little ant was probably confused with the water, sunshine, reflection and disturbance. He made it out alright !
I used a clear bowl of water and placed a Nasturtium along the edge, just touching the water surface, The grass wasn't completely canceled out, but it looks rather neat.
The only post processing was a slight crop, and darkened the top a little.

(first half of the Rossini William Tell overture)
Kodama , HighFidelity and I ventured off to the Alameda Navy Base, (a small island in the Bay next to Oakland), once practically a thriving city, now largely abandoned but reconstituting itself with private buildings. We went for the abandoned and had too much fun not only with the wonderful set in front of us but the sky and light were fantastic offering storm clouds and a golden sunset, sometimes simultaneously. We could have spent a week there! Check out the slideshow!

trying to spice it up a bit (:
most of my pictures have a very low saturation and i felt like this picture needed some COLOR. :D
No sigo ningún orden a la hora de subir las fotografías, las cojo, las miro, y si la música y el momento son los propicios la elijo. El olvidado nº 2, es este señor, creo que es la fotografía mas antigua que poseo, a mano, hay una fecha, 23/11/1913 y una dedicatoria que por el estilo caligráfico no entiendo muy bien.
" A Manuel R.M Pachanseo " muito grato dedicado...
En la esquina inferior izquierda donde esta mas deteriorado parece que pone:
""Muito grato y dedicado su amigo.....Miguel....."" y para mi ya es ilegible. Continua la firma y la fecha.
Por la vestimenta es obvio que pertenece alguna orden militar o cuerpo del estado, por el idioma parece ser que fuera Portugués, no se que tipo de rango pudiese ser, pues desconozco los distintivos que hay ten sus mangas. Todo esto son elucubraciones de un tipejo amante de la fotografía y los recuerdos perdidos que está en cuarentena.
Si alguien puede arrojar luz, siempre será bienvenido. Tambien he intentado investigar el sello del estudio fotográfico, y nada mas allá de que pueda imaginar que sea Portugués o Brasileño.
¿Gallego tal vez?
En fin, dispuesto, rígido como se tomaban durante largos segundos las fotografías de la época, dos amigos, uno muy agradecido al otro le envía un retrato, quizás el suyo propio. Es 1913, y todo se prepara para la primera guerra mundial. Barba y bigote arreglado para la eterna ocasión, su anillo de casado en el dedo anular de la mano izquierda siempre le acompaña, y le acompañará.
Su mirada, vacía y ausente parece decir que no está aquí, parece mirar mas allá de ese preciso instante en el que la cámara lo eternice. Él parece estar haciendo ya el petate, para marchar al frente de la gran guerra.

116/365 People help the people.
No one knows that it lies behind a false smile, can that person sunk and only need a hug to disappear from the world for a moment. You may need help, someone who talk and face the reality, needs to stop thinking for a moment. You need.
The title and the concept have been inspired by the song I've known today: Birdy-People help the people
-
Las personas ayudan a personas.
Nadie sabe que se esconde tras una sonrisa falsa, puede que esa persona este hundida y solo necesite un abrazo para desaparecer del mundo durante un instante. Puede que necesite ayuda, alguien con quien hablar y afrontar la realidad, necesita dejar de pensar durante un instante. Te necesita.
El titulo y el concepto han sido inspirados en la cancion que he conocido hoy: Birdy-People help the people
"You dance with the lady with the hole in her stocking. Didn't it feel good." Joni Mitchell - Help Me
Here are the two best prayers I know: Help me, help me, help me and Thank you, thank you, thank you." ~ Anne Lamott
None of these is me but a few old boys from my old school look in on Flickr occasionally and they may helpme name some of these guys.
This was just before the school changed its name to Lenana School
I finally got the full line up of names. Left to right back row : Joe Mwangi Kioi, Waruhiu Kimani , Roger Hissey, Durrard, Mike Atkinson, Nigel Sinclair, Nick Karafilis, Jim Arkell, Fred Obura, Bob Petracco.
Front row left to right: Nick Upton, Maurice Stephen /Stevens, Rob Seed,Greg Calder, Barry Botha, Mike Vaughan, Ronnie Andrews.
Turtles have been freezing into a comatose state thanks to our unusually cold temps! Once this happens, it takes a while for the turtles body temperature to rise again, and for body functions to begin and they are left in a sickly state. Without help from us, the turtles would be eaten by gators, sharks, and vultures before they can recover. Some that are rescued won't make it, but most will.
Donate anywhere you can to help.. There are OVER 300 Sea Turtles in Florida that may need help for as long as three months. With even colder weather coming, we can expect even more.
Don't forget about people too, many people are living on the streets and could use any old coat,blanket, or gloves you may not want anymore.

The dark side of Edinburgh on the middle of the day. A door and the words "Help Me" is all we see with our eyes. What is the true story behind these words and this door?
Edinburgh
Edinburgh (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Èideann) is the capital city of Scotland, situated in Lothian on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth. It is the second most populous city in Scotland and the seventh most populous in the United Kingdom. Edinburgh has been recognised as the capital of Scotland since at least the 15th century, but political power moved south to London after the Union of the Crowns in 1603 and the Union of Parliaments in 1707. After nearly three centuries of unitary government, a measure of self-government returned in the shape of the devolved Scottish Parliament, which officially opened in Edinburgh in 1999. The city is also home to many national institutions such as the National Museum of Scotland, the National Library of Scotland and the Scottish National Gallery. Edinburgh's relatively buoyant economy, traditionally centred on banking and insurance but now encompassing a wide range of businesses, makes it the biggest financial centre in the UK after London. Many Scottish companies have established their head offices in the city.
Edinburgh is rich in associations with the past and has many historic buildings, including Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, the churches of St. Giles, Greyfriars and the Canongate, and an extensive Georgian New Town built in the 18th century. Edinburgh's Old Town and New Town are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Uno scatto involontario, prendendo dalla tasca lo smartphone per fare una telefonata: si era autonomamente impostato su un'app. per effetti vintage ( si sa che gli smartphone spesso vivono di vita propria e scattano da soli….) Non so perchè, ma mi piace! (Non ho apportato alcuna modifica in PP).
Se a qualcun altro piace, può spiegare anche a me il perchè? :-)))
An involuntary click, taking from my pocket the smartphone to make a call: it was indipendently setted in an app. for vintage effects (you know that smartphones sometimes have a life of their own and work independently ..) I can not understand why, but I like this shot! (I have not made any change in PP)
If someone else likes it, can he explain why to me too? :-)))
any database design hints or help? how does this look?
big questions: i want more than one person (artist, technician, teacher) for each recording to be linked to the people table, but it says the link already exists. can i ignore that and just design it into the site?
can folktunes_places:parent link to folktunes_places:id ? (it doesn't want to) ...... and instrument (i want places and instuments to be subcategories) do i have to make new tables?
"Matisse", I picked that name because he reminded me of Pepe' Le Pew the cartoon where the French skunk pretends to be a cat because he is in love with a black & white feline. Matisse and I played, "hide & seek", "pursuer & distancer". "'Pepe Le Pew' & the cat" everyday I was with him for 19 years. I really, really miss all those "catty little games"......he always let me win as you can see in this photo :)
