Есть ли у нас истинная вера в Господа?
Что такое истинная вера на самом деле
Как сформировать истинную веру в Бога
От каждого из нас, христиан, Бог прежде всего требует обладания подлинной верой. В Библии описано множество примеров людей, которые благодаря своей вере смогли увидеть чудные дела Божьи и получить Его благословение. У Моисея былавера в Бога и посредством Божьего водительства он смог преодолеть множество препон и ограничений Фараона, с успехом возглавив израильтян в их исходе из Египта. Авраам имел веру в Бога и был готов принести в жертву Богу своего единственного сына Исаака, и в конечном итоге Бог благословил его, позволив его потомкам размножиться и стать великими народами. У Иова была вера в Бога, и во время двух испытаний он сумел остаться твердым в свидетельстве о Боге; Бог благословил Его более, нежели прежде, и явился ему и говорил с ним из бури. Женщина Хананеянка в Евангелии от Матфея имела веру в Господа Иисуса, веря, что Он может изгнать злого духа из ее дочери; она обратилась к Господу Иисусу с просьбой, и недуг ее дочери была излечен. Нам, как христианам, крайне важно понимать истину относительно того, что такое истинная вера, что, не важно с какими трудностями мы сталкиваемся в нашей жизни — с провалами в бизнесе, жизненными неудачами, несчастьями в семье — мы можем полагаться на нашу веру и неотступно следовать за Богом, громогласно свидетельствуя о Нем и в конечном итоге обретая Его одобрение.
Есть ли у нас истинная вера в Господа?
Могут найтись некоторые братья и сестры, которые, услышав дискуссию о вере, с уверенностью заявят, что у них точно есть вера. «Я верю в Бога на 100%. Я всегда признаю Бога, этим подтверждается, что я верующий». «Я верю, что Господь Иисус есть наш Спаситель, и что Он был распят, чтобы искупить нас от наших грехов. Пока мы молимся и исповедуемся пред Господом, Он всегда простит нам наши грехи. Разве это не вера в Господа?» «Я был верующим все эти годы; Чтобы посвятить всего себя и свой труд Господу, я отказался от карьеры, семьи и работы. Я повсюду основывал церкви и много страдал, никогда не жалуясь. Это все проявления веры в Бога». Несомненно, мы верим в существование Бога, и это факт, что мы с энтузиазмом работаем и полностью посвящаем себя Господу, что мы страдаем и дорого расплачиваемся за Него. Но значит ли это, что у нас есть истинная вера в Бога? Данный вопрос касается всех нас, братьев и сестер, которые искренне верят в Господа и жаждут истины, исследуя и проводя беседы.
Возьмем для примера меня. С тех пор, как я стала христианкой, я всегда активно участвовала в собраниях, делилась благой вестью с другими и предлагала поддержку братьям и сестрам, испытывающим слабость в вере. Никакие трудности не могли помешать мне заниматься этим. Я более чем готова оставить земные блага, чтобы с энтузиазмом служить Господу, поэтому я считаю себя той, которая любит Господа, предана Ему и имеет веру в Него. Однако, когда я и члены моей семьи заболели, и наше состояние не улучшилось даже после того, как я некоторое время молилась, я впала в уныние и разочаровалась в Боге. Я даже пожаловалась Ему, что он не защищает меня и мою семью. То, что было открыто суровой истиной, заставило меня понять, что мне совершенно не хватает подлинной веры, и что моя вера основывалась только на фундаменте семейной гармонии и свободы от физических болезней или бедствий. Тем не менее, мой истинный духовный рост был открыт, как только произошло что-то нежелательное. Только тогда я действительно увидела, что моя вера в Бога была настолько ничтожна, что вызывала жалость — это в самом деле не то, чем стоит хвастаться. Глядя на братьев и сестер вокруг меня, я видела, что большинство из них были такими же. Некоторые, чтобы не пострадали их личные интересы, вообще перестают посещать церковные служения, когда они вступают в конфликт с их графиком домашних дел или работы. Другие могут молиться Господу и просить Его о выходе, когда они впервые зашли в тупик в попытках найти работу или в других аспектах, но если это по-прежнему остается нерешенной проблемой, у них растет недовольство Господом, и они могут даже впасть в уныние и разочароваться. Они начинают полагаться на друзей из своего окружения, которые выглядят влиятельными и авторитетными, или могут действовать, руководствуясь своими собственными соображениями. Есть также братья и сестры, которые, получив Господни благословения, с энтузиазмом участвуют во всех аспектах церковной работы, но когда у них дома происходит что-то ужасное, или же они сталкиваются с неудачами в бизнесе, они начинают жить, не понимая Господа и сетуя на Него, а то и вовсе отходят от Него.

Days of Rome: the Age of Conquest, Rome and the Greek World.
Starting from February 24 until September 5, the Capitoline Museums will host a major exhibition of masterpieces of ancient art from the major European museums. In overview, first round of five-year program Days of Rome, the works will be exhibited for a period of the most innovative and original for the entire development of Western art: the one next to the campaigns of conquest in Greece since the end of the third century The second half of the BC, one of the key to the future Roman artistic and cultural identity, not only of the Republican.
Through the vision of imposing marble statues, fine works in bronze and terracotta sculptures entire cycles, ornaments and home decor items made of bronze and silver, the highest value style will be told a time of profound change in the canons and the stylistic aesthetic taste of ancient Rome. A time when Greek influence became predominant to involve fully the cultural world of the Roman Empire.
The exhibition The Age of Conquest, the first of the series "The Days of Rome, offers the unique opportunity to reflect on an era of profound changes in the canons on the stylistic and aesthetic taste of ancient Rome: one of the key to future cultural and artistic identity Roman, not only of the Republican. Will represent the period following the campaigns of conquest in Greece, in the decades between the end of the third century BC and half of the first century A.. C, where Greek influence becomes overwhelming to involve outright the Roman cultural world. And 'this is the period in which the ruling elite felt, with increasing awareness, strengthening of its prestige by expressing it through art.
The exhibition, through masterpieces coming from the Mediterranean basin, including impressive marble statues, fine works in bronze and terracotta sculptures entire cycles, ornaments and home decor items made of bronze and silver, the highest value style, describe the period that will be among the most innovative and original for the entire development of Western art.
The Arboretum has an interactive map on their web site. This map is found at the Arborway Gate.
Pasting from Wikipedia: Arnold Arboretum:
• • • • •
The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University is an arboretum located in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts. It was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and is the second largest "link" in the Emerald Necklace.
History
The Arboretum was founded in 1872 when the President and Fellows of Harvard College became trustees of a portion of the estate of James Arnold (1781–1868).
In 1842, Benjamin Bussey (1757–1842), a prosperous Boston merchant and scientific farmer, donated his country estate Woodland Hill and a part of his fortune to Harvard University "for instruction in agriculture, horticulture, and related subjects". Bussey had inherited land from fellow patriot Eleazer Weld in 1800 and further enlarged his large estate between 1806 and 1837 by acquiring and consolidating various farms that had been established as early as the seventeenth century. Harvard used this land for the creation of the Bussey Institute, which was dedicated to agricultural experimentation. The first Bussey Institute building was completed in 1871 and served as headquarters for an undergraduate school of agriculture.
Sixteen years after Bussey's death, James Arnold, a New Bedford, Massachusetts whaling merchant, specified that a portion of his estate was to be used for "...the promotion of Agricultural, or Horticultural improvements". In 1872, when the trustees of the will of James Arnold transferred his estate to Harvard University, Arnold’s gift was combined with 120 acres (0.49 km2) of the former Bussey estate to create the Arnold Arboretum. In the deed of trust between the Arnold trustees and the College, income from Arnold’s legacy was to be used for establishing, developing and maintaining an arboretum to be known as the Arnold Arboretum which "shall contain, as far as practicable, all the trees [and] shrubs ... either indigenous or exotic, which can be raised in the open air of West Roxbury". The historical mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase knowledge of woody plants through research and to disseminate this knowledge through education.
Charles Sprague Sargent was appointed director and Arnold Professor of Botany shortly after the establishment of the institution in 1872.[2] Together with landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted he developed the road and pathway system and delineated the collection areas by family and genus, following the then current and widely accepted classification system of Bentham and Hooker. The Hunnewell building was designed by architect Alexander Wadsworth Longfellow, Jr. in 1892 and constructed with funds donated by H. H. Hunnewell in 1903. From 1946 to 1950 the landscape architect Beatrix Farrand was the landscape design consultant for the Arboretum. Her early training in the 1890s included time with Charles Sprague Sargent and chief propagator and superintendent Jackson Thornton Johnson.[3] Today the Arboretum occupies 265 acres (107 hectares) of land divided between four parcels, viz. the main Arboretum and the Peters Hill, Weld-Walter and South Street tracts. The collections, however, are located primarily in the main Arboretum and on the Peters Hill tract. The Arboretum remains one of the finest examples of a landscape designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and it is a Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site) and a National Historic Landmark.
Robert E. Cook is the seventh and current Director of the Arnold Arboretum. He is also the Director of the Harvard University Herbaria located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Status
The Arboretum is privately endowed as a department of Harvard University. The land, however, was deeded to the City of Boston in 1882 and incorporated into the so-called "Emerald Necklace". Under the agreement with the City, Harvard University was given a thousand-year lease on the property, and the University, as trustee, is directly responsible for the development, maintenance, and operation of the Arboretum; the City retains responsibility for water fountains, benches, roads, boundaries, and policing. The annual operating budget of $7,350,644 (fiscal year 2003) is largely derived from endowment, which is also managed by the University, and all Arboretum staff are University employees. Other income is obtained through granting agencies and contributors.
Location
The main Arborway gate is located on Route 203 a few hundred yards south of its junction with the Jamaicaway. Public transportation to the Arboretum is available on the MBTA Orange Line to its terminus at Forest Hills Station and by bus (#39) to the Monument in Jamaica Plain. The Arboretum is within easy walking distance from either of these points.
Hours
The grounds are open free of charge to the public from sunrise to sunset 365 days of the year. The Visitor's Center in the Hunnewell Building, 125 Arborway, is open Monday through Friday 9 a.m.–4 p.m.; Saturdays 10 a.m.–4 p.m.; Sundays 12 p.m.–4 PM. The Visitor’s Center is closed on holidays. The Library, located in the Hunnewell Building, is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m.. The Library is closed on Sundays and holidays. Stacks are closed and the collection does not circulate.
Area
Two hundred and sixty-five acres (107 hectares) in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts, located at 42°19′N 71°5′W / 42.317°N 71.083°W / 42.317; -71.083, with altitudes ranging from 46 feet (15 m) in the meadow across the drive from the Hunnewell Building to 240 feet (79 m) at the top of Peters Hill.
Climate
Average yearly rainfall is 43.63 inches (1,102 mm); average snowfall, 40.2 inches (102 centimeters). Monthly mean temperature is 51.5 °F (10.8 °C); July's mean temperature is 73.5 °F (23 °C); January's is 29.6 °F (-1.3 °C). The Arboretum is located in USDA hardiness zone 6 (0 to −10 °F, −18 to −23 °C).
Collections (as of September 14, 2007)
At present, the living collections include 15,441 individual plants (including nursery holdings) belonging to 10,216 accessions representing 4,099 taxa; with particular emphasis on the ligneous species of North America and eastern Asia. Historic collections include the plant introductions from eastern Asia made by Charles Sprague Sargent, Ernest Henry Wilson, William Purdom, Joseph Hers, and Joseph Rock. Recent introductions from Asia have resulted from the 1977 Arnold Arboretum Expedition to Japan and Korea, the 1980 Sino-American Botanical Expedition to western Hubei Province, and more recent expeditions to China and Taiwan.
Comprehensive collections are maintained and augmented for most genera, and genera that have received particular emphasis include: Acer, Fagus, Carya, Forsythia, Taxodium, Pinus, Metasequoia, Lonicera, Magnolia, Malus, Quercus, Rhododendron, Syringa, Paulownia, Albizia, Ilex, Gleditsia and Tsuga. Other comprehensive collections include the Bradley Collection of Rosaceous Plants, the collection of conifers and dwarf conifers, and the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection. Approximately 500 accessions are processed annually.
Collections policy
The mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase our knowledge of the evolution and biology of woody plants. Historically, this research has investigated the global distribution and evolutionary history of trees, shrubs and vines, with particular emphasis on the disjunct species of East Asia and North America. Today this work continues through molecular studies of the evolution and biogeography of the floras of temperate Asia, North America and Europe.
Research activities include molecular studies of gene evolution, investigations of plant-water relations, and the monitoring of plant phenology, vegetation succession, nutrient cycling and other factors that inform studies of environmental change. Applied work in horticulture uses the collections for studies in plant propagation, plant introduction, and environmental management. This diversity of scientific investigation is founded in a continuing commitment to acquire, grow, and document the recognized species and infraspecific taxa of ligneous plants of the Northern Hemisphere that are able to withstand the climate of the Arboretum’s 265-acre (1.07 km2) Jamaica Plain/Roslindale site.
As a primary resource for research in plant biology, the Arboretum’s living collections are actively developed, curated, and managed to support scientific investigation and study. To this end, acquisition policies place priority on obtaining plants that are genetically representative of documented wild populations. For each taxon, the Arnold Arboretum aspires to grow multiple accessions of known wild provenance in order to represent significant variation that may occur across the geographic range of the species. Accessions of garden or cultivated provenance are also acquired as governed by the collections policies herein.
For all specimens, full documentation of both provenance and history within the collection is a critical priority. Curatorial procedures provide for complete and accurate records for each accession, and document original provenance, locations in the collections, and changes in botanical identity. Herbarium specimens, DNA materials, and digital images are gathered for the collection and maintained in Arboretum data systems and the herbarium at the Roslindale site.
Research
Research on plant pathology and integrated pest management for maintenance of the living collections is constantly ongoing. Herbarium-based research focuses on the systematics and biodiversity of both temperate and tropical Asian forests, as well as the ecology and potential for sustainable use of their resources. The Arboretum's education programs offer school groups and the general public a wide range of lectures, courses, and walks focusing on the ecology and cultivation of plants. Its quarterly magazine, Arnoldia, provides in-depth information on horticulture, botany, and garden history. Current Research Initiatives
Plant Records
Plant records are maintained on a computerized database, BG-BASE 6.8 (BG-Base Inc.), which was initiated in 1985 at the request of the Arnold Arboretum and the Threatened Plants Unit (TPU) of the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC). A computerized mapping program (based on AutoCAD (Autodesk)) is linked to BG-BASE, and each accession is recorded on a series of maps at a scale of 1-inch (25 mm) to 20 feet (1:240) or 1-inch (25 mm) to 10 feet (1:120). A computer-driven embosser generates records labels. All accessioned plants in the collections are labeled with accession number, botanical name, and cultivar name (when appropriate), source information, common name, and map location. Trunk and/or display labels are also hung on many accessions and include botanical and common names and nativity. Stake labels are used to identify plants located in the Leventritt Garden and Chinese Path.
Grounds Maintenance
The grounds staff consists of the superintendent and assistant superintendent, three arborists, and ten horticultural technologists. A service garage is adjacent to the Hunnewell Building, where offices and locker rooms are located. During the summer months ten horticultural interns supplement the grounds staff. A wide array of vehicles and modern equipment, including an aerial lift truck and a John Deere backhoe and front loader, are used in grounds maintenance. Permanent grounds staff, excluding the superintendents, are members of AFL/CIO Local 615, Service Employees International Union (SEIU).
Nursery and Greenhouse Facilities
The Dana Greenhouses, located at 1050 Centre Street (with a mailing address of 125 Arborway), were completed in 1962. They comprise four service greenhouses totaling 3,744 square feet (348 m²), the headhouse with offices, cold rooms, storage areas, and a classroom. Staffing at the greenhouse includes the manager of greenhouses and nurseries, the plant propagator, two assistants, and, during the summer months, two horticultural interns. Adjacent to the greenhouse is a shade house of 3,150 square feet (293 m²), a 12,600 cubic foot (357 m³) cold storage facility, and three irrigated, inground nurseries totaling approximately one and one-half acres (6,000 m²). Also located in the greenhouse complex is the bonsai pavilion, where the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection is displayed from the middle of April to the end of October. During the winter months the bonsai are held in the cold storage unit at temperatures slightly above freezing.
Isabella Welles Hunnewell Internship Program
The living collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a paid summer internship program [2] that combines hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Intern trainees will be accepted for 12- to 24-week appointments. Ten interns will work with the grounds maintenance department and two in the Dana Greenhouses.
As part of the training program, interns participate in mandatory instructional sessions and field trips in order to develop a broader sense of the Arboretum’s horticultural practices as well as those of other institutions. Sessions and field trips are led by Arnold staff members and embrace an open question and answer format encouraging all to participate. Interns often bring experience and knowledge that everyone, including staff, benefits from. It is a competitive-free learning environment.
Horticultural Apprenticeship
The Arboretum created the horticultural apprenticeship program in 1997 to provide hands-on experience in all aspects of the development, curation, and maintenance of the Arboretum's living collections to individuals interested in pursuing a career in an arboretum or botanical garden.
The Living Collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a summer internship program[4] that combines practical hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Fourteen Interns/Horticultural Trainees are accepted for twelve to twenty-four week appointments. Interns receive the majority of their training in one of three departments: Grounds Maintenance, Nursery and Greenhouse, or Plant Records.
Lilac Sunday
The second Sunday in May every year is "Lilac Sunday". This is the only day of the year that picnicing is allowed. In 2008, on the 100th anniversary of Lilac Sunday, the Arboretum website touted:
Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. On Lilac Sunday, garden enthusiasts from all over New England gather at the Arboretum to picnic, watch Morris dancing, and tour the lilac collection. On the day of the event, which takes place rain or shine, the Arboretum is open as usual from dawn to dusk.[5]
Associated Collections
The Arboretum's herbarium in Jamaica Plain holds specimens of cultivated plants that relate to the living collections (ca. 160,000). The Jamaica Plain herbarium, horticultural library, archives, and photographs are maintained in the Hunnewell building at 125 Arborway; however, the main portions of the herbarium and library collections are housed in Cambridge on the campus of Harvard University, at 22 Divinity Avenue.
Publications
The inventory of living collections is updated periodically and made available to sister botanical gardens and arboreta on request; it is also available on the Arboretum’s website (searchable inventory). Arnoldia, the quarterly magazine of the Arnold Arboretum, frequently publishes articles relating to the living collections. A Reunion of Trees[6] by Stephen A. Spongberg (curator emeritus) recounts the history of the introduction of many of the exotic species included in the Arobretum’s collections. New England Natives[7] written by horticultural research archivist Sheila Connor describes many of the trees and shrubs of the New England flora and the ways New Englanders have used them since prehistoric times. Science in the Pleasure Ground[8] by Ida Hay (former curatorial associate) constitutes an institutional biography of the Arboretum.
Institutional Collaborations
The Arboretum maintains an institutional membership in the American Public Garden Association (APGA) and the International Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta. Additionally, members of the staff are associated with many national and international botanical and horticultural organizations. The Arboretum is also a cooperating institution with the Center for Plant Conservation (CPC), and as an active member of the North American Plant Collections Consortium (NAPCC), it is committed to broadening and maintaining its holdings of: Acer, Carya, Fagus, Stewartia, Syringa, and Tsuga for the purposes of plant conservation, evaluation, and research. The Arboretum is also a member of the North American China Plant Exploration Consortium (NACPEC).

What started it
Amara stood up, storming off to the edge of the bed. Here she was feeling bad for herself and Rico just acted like nothing had happened. "I'm not apologizing for giving an ungrateful bitch like you a vaccine to save your life…but don't expect treatment from the medics you're so fucking convinced are useless!" She started for the stairs. "Next time your dumbass decides to get deliberately infected, do the family a favor and stay away from the Den!"
Tanner 's ears twitched at this point, frowning as he looked over to Rico, feeling Amara's emotions still, sadness and maybe just a little anger. He shook his head at this point before letting out, "what the fuck did you do!" he lets out angrily as he tries to get himself up from the wall. His own mix up emotions weren't helping. He was volitile right now and Amara's emotions weren't helping in the least. He narrows his eyes a bit before limping over towards the other.
Rico didnt pay anymind to her. He didnt think the medics in general were useless. Sure he was mad she took forever but this could have been avoided if she didnt threaten him and then shock him 5 seconds after being shocked. He heard tanner and sighed "I asked her not to talk to me.....if she wants to shock me and threaten me then theres nor reason to talk to me.....So I told her not to speak to me" he shrugs as he wasnt going to apologize for anything he said she wouldnt stop talking to him so she made him say that. He knew she was probably going to tell alot of packies and they werent going to like him anymore but its just that way he assumed
(( Patman Ballinger: no*))
"News Flash jerk. When you disrespect an Elder, you get punished. I walked out on my wife to come here yesterday….I left her alone at a fucking restaurant, our private time after several days of working on different schedules…to run over here to treat Yvonne. And you send a rude, ungrateful text across the entire Pack channel because you didn't feel like waiting!" Amara paced around for a few seconds. "After all, that you go and jeopardize the treatment by deliberately kissing your infected lover…and I'm the bad one for giving you a vaccine?!"
Tanner 's ears flattened against his head at this point as he shook his head, taking a deep breath before murmuring out, "I don't know exactly what happened... but sounds like you're being an asshole Rico..." he lets out, looking to Amara, "I... I shouldn't stay here... I'm... just gonna make things worse..." he lets out, knowing he's getting angry and upset and more confused and depressed then he already is.
Rico shakes his head "Fine Im an asshole" he throws his hands in the air. "Look at me the biggest asshole ever " he hops down off the ledge and to the pool below and goes into the back of the part of the cave to be alone "The asshole will be downstairs if you need it" he said down and laid his head on the rock closing his eyes
Amara snarled, a more animalistic bellow than a hybrid feline would technically make. Fists clenched tight enough to draw blood, she'd storm after the sarcastic Rico. Now would be a smart time to hold her back…because after admitting all this sacrifice just to hear Rico blow it off like it meant nothing, Amara was not about to tell him off…oh no…she was ready to kill him.
Editor's note: *rings fight bell*
Tanner wouldn't hold her back though... he wasn't in a state of mind to do so... not with Amara's emotions as we as his own engulphing his mind. He clenched his fists and knawed his lip as he backed up some trying not to trip or anything as he tried to get away from Amara and her emotions before he did something that he'd regret. His heart was thumping in his chest before he shook his head and let out a loud scream before starting to sob softly, hands coming to his hair, injured shoulder aching a bit as he dropped to his knees trying to create an invisible sphere around himself like Alexandra was trying to teach him... it wasn't working though.
Rico heard the snarl but didnt think anything of it at the time. He scratched a his chin with a yawn before looking back at the wwater
Without Tanner to stop her, Amara jumped down to the pool, landing easily on her feet. The snarls never ceased to leave her lips, a challenging noise to the ears of panther. She'd prowl outside the grotto, snapping in a fit of loud growls and hissing, the sounds being the equivalent of curses deliberate enough to provoke Rico in their native feline dialect.
" You spineless ungrateful coward! If you want to run away from a conversation that badly, just say so!"
Rico was insulted at this and this was just nature but panthers werent an animal to turn down such calls. He angrily growled before turning over and walking through the falls to meet the call. He growled the yellow feline eyes on her as his claws came out. He opened his mouth in what almost looked like a smile but it was to show his canines in intimidations as he snarled back angrily
Amara knelt for a moment at the reply, not out of fear but merely bracing herself in case he charged. She raised her left hand, presenting her natural claws to the male as a message she would not be backing down to him. Her rank was important, and Amara had every intention of making that message clear in the hisses she returned.
Tanner tugged on his hair before shaking his head, shouting loudly, "STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT!" His claws dug into his scalp as he growled out, tears slipping down his cheeks as his eyes became rimmed with crimson, pupils getting larger as he stared at the ground.
Rico crouched down snarling and snapping. He indeed had no doubt she wouldnt back down but neither was he. When he was created his scientist wanteed to see how far a panther could be fused into a human. So his willingness to accept a challege was high. He continued the showing of his canines ignoring the pleas to stop. Hisses escaped his lips as he looked at her . His body lowered but he wasnt going to charge first with his size one bad charge could take him out the fight
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) Im not backing down....You wanna fight me thenfine I tried to walk from this issue
Amara took advantage of this hesitation, lunging forward to attack his midsection. A quick sweep with her left hand lashed out at the male panther, both hand and tongue desiring blood. The howling reflected her disgust in him, again repeating taunting growls and roars intent to demean him. In the wild, such noises were reminiscent of a female disapproving a weaker suitor.
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) You did nothing of the sort! You pouted and turned your back like some angry child at nursery. Pathetic...why did I waste my time trying to treat you at all?!
Rico started back before a burning came across his stomache. Fresh claw marks began to bleed which didnt make the male panther too happy. He snarled loudly his right hand camed down in a club like motion hoping to rake his sharp claws down the side of her cheek. A snarl given taunting the female panther that most would take as an insult to their sex in the big cat world. He wanted nothing more than to sink his teeth into her neck . He snapped again in her direction before giving a call as if he claimed superiority in this battle
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans))Now you insult me? And spill my blood...FINE..... I did not ask you to fight........I told you to leave me alone...But you keep on talking. I told you not to treat me so you wasted your own time I asked you not to!!!!!
Tanner 's fingers dug into his scalp as he just stared at the ground, breath coming out in short little gasps as his usually golden eyes became crimson, pupils getting bigger and smaller as he stared at the ground. His claws were finally removed from his scalp as he slowly got to his feet, eyes narrowed dangerously as he moved towards the stairs, limping slightly but not seeming to be in any pain anymore.
Amara was not about to let Rico actually mark her in this fight. She braced for the impact which sent her flying rudely into the waters of the pool. Sitting up immediately and panting heavily, Amara spit the bit of blood from her mouth that was caused by the bruising. Several hisses went let out in Rico's direction. Running some water over her face, she adjusted her stance, flicking her ears in retaliation at Rico's bold proclamation of victory. She launched herself in the air this time, intent on landing a swift right hook to his face.
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) If you wished to die so badly, just say so weakling! I won't have you infecting the entire family for your fucking pride! I'll have you show some damn respect before this is over.
Rico snarled as his swipe hit but it was short lived as he saw her lunge. His head snappedto the side as he tumbled meeting not water but just more rock. He groaned as his body met the hard surface but he shook his head moving back into his stance. His face now with fresh claw marks he could let that go. He lunged forward upon getting up his face and belly burned but his right raised a claws attempting to slam and rake hard at the top of her heard and forehead heavy snarls as he did
(( Patman Ballinger: couldnt*))
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) I dont get infected like most. If I get a cold its small and its not serious. I respected you until you threaten me and shock me....You know im still shook from the last time I was left behind by packies *Swipe* But no instead of just leaving me be you want to be an aggressor....I refuse to kill you but ill defend myself and make sure its know you started this!!!!
arwen Eiren wanders into the den arms crossed over her chest , her small eyes widen as she could see the fight , ears pinningb back against her head standing there"m.....mama!"she saw Rico attacking her mama, She lets out a very feirce, more then she even knew she could do growl"LEAVE MY MAMA ALONE!!"she yells at the top of her lungs"LEAVE HER ALONE!!"She screams

Amara screamed as her hair was caught, the weight of Rico's arm throwing her sideways in the rocky walls. Trickles of blood ran down the side of her face as she heard Arwen's voice. For once, she went back to English. "Arwen, you stay back! I want you nowhere near this!" She pushed herself off the wall, hoping to land a strong blow to Rico's already injured midsection. The roars of defiance and her authoritative stance would speak volumes to the male panther.
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) Learn well, Rico! This is a pack, not a pride. The elders and leads are to be respected, not taken for granted with they are most convenient for you! You insulted the medics of this family and I will not stand for it! I've tried to be supportive and yet all you're done is behave like an infant!
Patman Ballinger: ((Yea me an amara are friends again it was such an inspiration lol jk
arwen Eiren: (damn i didnt see tanner's post)
Zhin Murakami wakes up, she streches and yawns looking around if she was alone. Zhin touches a spot behind her left ear and a mask morphes out her chaw around her mouth and nose, the last hing she remembered before she felt aslepp, was hearing Amara saying something about a virus.
Tanner had since moved down the stairs, ears plastered on his face and an almost strained, maybe pained expression on his face. He wasn't in pain, however, just fighting... with himself as he moved towards the fighting. His eyes went immidiately to Arwen as he growled out, "If you have your phone... call the pack now... tell them to get their asses here before the den gets smeared with blood..." he says, not seeming to care that his words might scare the child. He turned to Rico and Amara at this point and growled low in his throat, claws out, blood dripping down the sides of his face from the wounds he'd inflicted on himself, crimson eyes getting darker.
arwen Eiren pulls out her pda , pushing a button on it and screams into it top of her lung"RICO AND MAMA MARA TEARING EACH OTHER UP! NEED HELP!THEY WONT STOP FIGHTING!"
Rico moved forward to follow up his hand coming down again clawing at the top of her head again as another burn emerged from his midsection. New claw bloody marks emerging. The stupidest thing someone could do what intervene in a big cat fight. They were fights that couldnt be broken up and could get the one breaking it hurt. He snarled the pain in his stomacheand lower section growing. He roared out bringing his hand up turning waiting for her next attack
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans))I didnt insult the medics. the medics have my respect for the ones I have met. Notice my comments were to you not the medical staff. I said leave me be....LKeave me be........But now you come to fighting. i understand respect but yea anger and worry can make a person abit angry. Now look your cub pleads for you to stop but instead you want to fight.
arwen Eiren heart races as she waits for someone to come help to knock sense into the two fighting. Her little heart raced, she started breathing quickly"stop fightging stop fighting!"she growls , her eyes watering up"DONT HURT MY MOMMY!!"
Zhin Murakami comes downstairs following the fighting noises, she sees Amara and Rico fighting? What the.. she tabs Tanner at his shoulder "What is going on?!" Looking over to Arwen seeing the kid all frighten
Amara kept her body low to the ground before swinging a leg out to trip him. The roars only got louder as if trying to drown out any voice of reason. This was beyond a personal fit for her; this was the natural way of showing her stance on this issue. Wild howls filled every corner of the den as Amara explained herself in a tongue only Rico would understand.
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) How quickly you forget your words from yesterday. "Fuck it…I'll do what little I can do since no one cares." Of course we cared! We've always cared! But no, you were too stuck up in your own damn impatience to see it! To hell with earlier, that's why I yelled at you yesterday and for your rude remarks, that's why you were shocked!
I'll comfort Arwen after this…after you apologize for trampling over our sacrifices! Mitka was traumatized from her attack and is still in training. Tanner was tortured by the UAC just a few days ago! I was with my wife…I'm sorry it took so long, but you have no right to look down on someone's attempt to help you!
Tanner knew he couldn't let their fight continue much longer... his own fight getting difficult. He couldn't hold the other back much longer if this continued but even considering leaving made it ten times worse to fight the other so he gave up on that idea completely as his eyes narrowed. It was either stop them from fighting... or better yet... knock at least one of them out before all hell broke loose... The moment he felt a tap on his shoulder, however, his eyes narrowed and he wipped around, claws going straight for Zhin's chest as he growls out loudly, eyes getting even darker.
arwen Eiren sdcreaming top her lungs"STOP FIGHTING!"her body shook breathing quickly smelling her mama mara's blood, ears pinned back against her head"no more no more!!FAMILY DONT FIGHT!!!!"She sways as she stands
Rico got off balance from her foot and snarled as he didnt trip fully seeing he was on all fours. He backed away shaking his head as his cheek and stomache bled. His snarls and roars echoeing loudly in return to hers a form of panther speaking that they only could understand
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) That noone was directed to you not that it makes my words better. From what I saw you were the only medic with a fucking pda ON!!!. I know tanner was gone !!!
Akiel Martian came running in catching the sight before him, emerald hued eyes shifting already into that darkened feral jade, "..ah 'ell na..", he shook his head, "..this'll na do..", his left mechanical arm raised, coming to be pointed upon Mara and Rico. the arm straightened and that small latch at the palm would open, his right, moved for its respective cerberus gun, "..cover yer ears, Arwen..", he said as he pulled it and raised it high, and ear splitting shot of a fifty cal depleted uranium shell would go off, resonatting the air about them with the sound, Syle's ears flattened agains his head before he growled out, "..S'ENOUGH ALL O' YE'S!!"
Jayde Rasmuson enters and observes the situation at hand.. walking closer to Arwen she puts her hand on the little one's head, a gesture that had become familiar with her. Taking morenote to Amara, Jaydesucked in a deep breath then exhaled.. looking about to the others, emerald glance finally resting 'pon Syle, who was.. fuckin' shit up.. oh shit! Jayde kind of ducked then watched the effect this had..
Zhin Murakami is a little surprised at Tanners move, as his claws dig into her chest she reaches up with her left mechanic hand griping around his wrist, she looks straight into his eyes, purring softly "Shhh..." then she heard Syle yelling and autmaticly ducks pulling Tanner down with her.
Amara let out a last minute reply, her tail hairs flaring angrily as she sounded more like a large angry domestic cat before the sound of Syle's gun shut her up. The blood dripping from her forehead didn't seem to bother her though the immediate ringing in her ears was a different story. Her hands rose to cover her ears from the stinging. "…was deafening us really necessary?" she whimpered.
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) I was saying goodbye to my lover whom I haven't had a proper sit down with in days! It's not like I just got the message and ran off; we were having a meal…Tanner's PDA was destroyed, and even if he could hear the feed, he was in no position to help!
arwen Eiren hears the gun going off and lets out a scream, and then well between watching her mom fighting , hearing the gun go off, the poor 5 year old fainted
Rico snarls his ears slam down against his head as thee sound of the gun erupts. His cheek and belly were bleeding but his panther communication continued
Patman Ballinger: ((trans))I didnt know you were with her!!! Ok im sorry but I lost alot and It got to me when it seemed like she was dying!!!! So dont turn the whole medic team on me when I spoke to you....And I know tanner wasnt on the line so you were the only one i was speaking to......Now ya daughter needs you more than this fight
Rennat would have winced as he's grabbed by the wrist and pulled down but this wasn't Tanner anymore... this was Rennat who felt no pain. He stared into Zhin's eyes as she shushed him, dark crimson eyes focusing on her and nothing else. He focused his mind on her, blocking out some of the emotions from the other's, dark eyes getting a bit lighter as he gives a bit of an almost pained expression, still fighting the other personality back. He winced quite a bit, tensing against the other at the shot, ears ringing as he growls out.
[12:55] Tanner Blackheart: [[Tanner would have not Rennat would have -_-"]]
Akiel Martian: "When it seem that no one be listenin' ta a worried child n' oi get a text, aye oi think it be..", he said and lowered the gun, wagging it between Rico and Amara with his next words, "..what the fuck be all this about, we're supposed ta be family n' oi walk in ta ye' both tearin' at one another..", he holstered the cerberus gun. Mechanical left arm lowering too as the latch closed, "..what's all this, y'all two have beef, ye' should'na be scrappin' in the den..ye' be scarrin' the wee ones.."
Zhin Murakami slowly straightens up after Syles shoot, her right ear rings and is flaten on the head, she pulls Tanner up wither, her mech hand gripping his right wrist like a bench vice. She continues staring at him, noticing the change in his eyes she purrs softly again "Shhhhhh...."
Amara backed away, moving to check on the collapsed Arwen. "Sweetheart…Arwen…are you alright?" She didn't feel any now pains, so she knew she had not been shot. Ignoring Syle a moment, she mews her final response to Rico. They had reached a relative understanding though no one understood that. She'd gotten the apology she'd been after and the male knew now why she'd been so cross. Not the traditional means of talking things out. "It was in regards to some events concerning yesterday. We've settled it for the most far though. Sometimes, between panthers, it's easier the converse that way. I'm sorry for scaring any of ya…"
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) If you read your messages again you would have seen my reply "I'm in Madres with Adagio...but I'll head over to the den now." *walks to Arwen* I would never turn the family against you over a petty argument like this, but I'd appreciate if you thought a little better of us.
arwen Eiren had a huge bump on her forehead a bit passedout to respond at the moment, poor kid got the hell scaredout of her
Rico shakes his head free of blood before dipping it in the water. The had worked it out abit and Rico got how he felt out and gave his sorry. He did like having other panthers in the pack to the fact they could talk in their own way but only bad that their language no matter what will look hostile. He dipped his head in the water a sting aas he felt his face stretched when he opened his mouth gettin g a few sips of water. He sighed gave one last few growls before coming uo and sitting on rock
Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) Im sorry......Its just been a bad run of events.....Hope ovetime this issue heals
Rennat 's heart was racing as he continues to fight back the other personality, the battle getting easier as he focuses on Zhin, though he could still feel the quickly dimming anger coming from the two who'd been fighting but his focus was on Zhin, not seeming bothered by the grip on his wrist, though still seeming to 'wince' every now and then as he continued to fight with the darker personality. Thank god Arwen had managed to get help... or things could have ended badly.
Akiel Martian frowned, shaking his head, "..will take a whole lot more ta scare me than two brawlin' Panthers..", in truth, male panther hybrids worried him, always, Dax was one and Rico another, Panthers were strong cats and possibly the only spcies of Hybrid able to go toe to toe with Syle. The Wolf had size and strength and if it wasnt for that, well. He certainly would have to be worried then, he looked from Amara to Rico, and frowned, he shook his head. Then looked to Tanner, "..oi dun' feel like seein' Rennat ta'day lad..ye' keep 'im locked away nice n' tight.."
Zhin Murakami nods at Syles words, she was glad the fight was over. Zhin holds her gaze straight for Tanners eyes purring deeper as she tightens the grip on his wrist a little more once more she hushes at him "Shhhhhh..." her eyes glowing.
Amara cradled the child in her bruised arms, the blood covered claws long retracted. "It was not out of violence if that explains it further. Just a really primal form of a heart to heart." She sighed as she held Arwen, a long hiss and low growling spoken to Rico again ending in a faint smile. "Still, two Pack members fighting is not something to be encouraged. As the Medic Lead and as an elder, I should know this."
Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) I'd like to help you if you'd just let me…I know how
horrible it can be to be held powerless and captive in a cell…tortured to the point of madness. We can talk another time…when you are ready that is.
Rico listens to the growls and nods his head giving a growl in return. He shakes his head rapidly his hair sending water and blood that dripped from it flying. He stretched his tail swung slowly as he looked around then back to his claws covered in blood and strands of hair. He began to pull at them cleaning them as he sat there
Patman Ballinger: ((trans)) Yea whenevers' fine...But now les both calm down and you can make sure your cubs is ok
arwen Eiren groans her blue eyes flickering opening letting out a yelp hand to her head she starts to cry
Rennat 's ears twitches at Syle's words as he lets out a bitter laugh, "sorry... but Tanner's not in control... hasn't been since shortly after those two morons started fighting... It's not me you should be worried about though... Just be glad i'm around to stop 'the other one' from paying you all a visit..." he lets out, having finally looked away from Zhin, eyes now Rennat's usual crimson color though his heart was still racing as he speeks again, "It may be best if Tanner stays away from the pack for a while... if things like this are going to happen... it's not safe for him or for you... Not till he's got things worked out."
Akiel Martian looked them all over again, sighing, from Amara behind him to Rico, to Zhin and Tanner, "..glad that be over at least..", he said shaking his head, if that was talking, he wondered for a moment, if Keira, with her desire to always have a scrap with Syle, was her way too, of talking? Was there a message to be read in the way, Keira faught? Strange as it would seem, but Amara and Rico, had given Syle something to think on, mayhaps sometimes, later, he would pull one of them aside and ask to learn more on Panther type Hybrids. It could help him with his own, oddly chaotic relationship, "..aye, Mara, ye' should..as should Rico..", his voice was calm, soft, there was no blame being pointed at anyone, "..mayhaps next time, ye' both need a heart ta heart it could be..away from the wee ones eyes?", he certainly wasnt one to go against instinct. After all it was what kept Syle alive this long, instinct, "..oi gotta go, y'all..please..stay safe..", he said before moving, "..aye, dun wanna see that one either..", he said plainly to Tanner before walking out.
Amara immediately tried to calm the child. "It's okay. I'm right here, Arwen." She'd rock back and forth gently to assure Arwen the dust had settled. She'd only nod to Rico, agreeing that the argument of sorts was over. "Rennat…kindly don't call us morons. And if Tanner's mind needs a break from the family and what not for a while, please go ahead and leave. We had no intention of harming tanner nor sparking you to the surface." She groaned at Syle's words, but knew that if her own elders were here, they'd be furious with her.
arwen Eiren buries her head into Amara's shoulder and clings, little tears rolling down her cheeks "no more fighting."
Rico groans as his wound stretch when he lays down. He yawns hanging his leg and arm over into the water and looks around "We need a tree in here" he mumbles before closing his eyes just resting for a moment but nit sleeping
Zhin Murakami looks from Tanner to Syle and back. Slowly she lets go of Tanners wrist, looking down on her chest, she curses as the green was darkened with blood, she did not notice till now. "Dammit, this suit was only a few days old" she grumbles to her self, then she looks up saying loud "Everybody ok so far?"
arwen Eiren looks up" Kitty scratching post?I can buy one uh huhs."
Rennat looks calmly over to Amara, heart beat starting to return to normal as he lets out calmly, "sorry... still a bit tense. We need to keep stuff like that away from Tanner right now... a new, very dangerous, personality has 'appeared' and it's not a friendly one. His name is Tearnn... and he will tear and anyone or anything that's in the vicinity," he explains as he moves to stand slowly, looking to Zhin, "sorry for attacking you."
Tanner Blackheart: [[at anyone]]
Amara shook her head, pausing to pull a cleansing wipe from her bag. "No..no..I know what it looked like but we weren't fighting; we were arguing at best. Mommy's a panther, and that fighting you saw was how panthers argue or voice their opinions. It's not the most civil of sights." She'd hug the girl tightly before attempting to clean her forehead. "Rico, try the beams of the ruined building rather than a tree in here. The city ledges are good also for relaxing." Rennat's description was disturbing at best. "Where did this persona grow from? The UAC attacks…or is it better not to ask?"
That had to be one my most enjoyable RPs to date
Ménsulas del balcón volado

Cuenta la leyenda, que a principios del siglo IX en un bosque llamado Libredón, una estrella guió a un hombre llamado Paio hasta el lugar donde en el siglo I se habían enterrado los restos del Apóstol Santiago el Mayor, que habían sido trasladados desde Jerusalem tras su martirio en una barca de piedra. Poco tiempo después del descubrimiento de la Tumba, la sede episcopal asentada en Iria (Padrón) se trasladó a Compostela. El hallazgo del Sepulcro fue la base sobre la que se cimentó la ciudad.

IGLESIA
Los arquitectos que trabajaron en la iglesia fueron el portugués Mateo López, que se encargó de las primeras trazas; el granadino Bartolomé Fernández Lechuga, que construye la magnífica cúpula nervada y organiza el espacio interior consiguiendo una gran majestuosidad; el salmantino Peña y Toro, que se encarga de las obras de contención pues habían cedido los muros, y finalmente, fray Tomás Alonso y fray Gabriel Casas, con distintas aportaciones en la fachada del monasterio, claustros, campanario y dependencias monacales. Sobre la puerta se despliega una vistosa fachada plateresca. Presiden en la parte central, entre la puerta y el óculo, la Virgen, San Bieito y San Bernardo, mientras que en el frontón que corona la portada está San Martiño repartiendo su capa con un pobre. Las torres se levantan sólo hasta la altura de la fachada, debido a la oposición del cabildo catedralicio, temeroso de que la basílica perdiese visibilidad. Para vencer el desnivel del terreno, el benedictino Plácido Camiña construyó la hermosa escalera de acceso a la puerta, sin duda inspirada en la que da acceso a la Catedral desde la fachada del Obradoiro. El templo posee planta de cruz latina con tres naves en el brazo principal y una en el transversal, recorridas por una tribuna. Se emplea la bóveda de cañón en la que se enmascaran los nervios a modo de falsos casetones. Varias capillas comunicadas entre sí, se abren a cada lado del brazo longitudinal. En el interior llama poderosamente la atención el fastuoso retablo mayor de estilo barroco diseñado por F. de Casas y Novoa y ejecutado por Romay.

And an adjoining prehistoric settlement .
I edited the other shots to remove minor flaws , like dust and scratches , but I like how this looked like an old postcard straight out of the camera.
Trying new things , dusted off my old Kiev 88 medium format film camera ( a Soviet copy of a Hasselblad 1600) from about 1990 and tried out some new (old) lenses on it.
A Zodiac-8 (30mm fisheye lens) , a Volna-3 (80mm standard lens) and a Kalinar-3 (150mm short telephoto ) . Got a few more lenses on the way .
These cameras from the former Soviet union do have a reputation for terrible quality control at the factories , they build the camera , you tweak it to get it working right !
First two roll's of film I put though it are out of date , but sort of came out O.K .......
The black and white film was in a 6x4.5cm back and leaked light from the dark slide slot like a sieve !!!
Replacement parts have arrived from Hasselblad .
The developed film also had unusual scratches on them that need investigating , but overall still usable.
Adjustment is also needed to set it up better for long fast lenses .
Dusted off my old 120 roll film scanner from 2001 and it actually worked on Windows 7 !
Set it up on a "medium" resolution and it churned out a huge 170mb file , compared to the 24mb RAW files from my Sony a900 .
The scan output was set at approx. a 70 megapixel equivalent .
Still looked good but way bigger than needed !

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oKwnkYFsiE&feature=related
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One, to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other, to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days, staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow, a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left, I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left, how many times did I depend too much on her, doubt her, envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However, I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me, a guy filled with ambiguous, unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

Reading: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhjMlz2lYUU
The story so far: The Dreamer loses his Pearl in a grassy mound - evidently her grave. He swoons with grief, and awakens in an earthly paradise, through which there runs a beautiful stream. The land on the opposite bank seems even more beautiful. He wanders further down the stream, hoping to find a bridge or a ford. Just when he starts to become afraid of the dangers that may be in store for him, he sees a young woman sitting at the foot of a crystal cliff on the opposite bank, and instantly recognises her as his lost Pearl. He hails his Pearl and expresses his relief that she still exists, but she begins to reprove him for his lack of faith. She criticises him for only believing that her soul is immortal now that he can see her, and is shocked by his suggestion that he - a mortal man - has a hope of joining her in Paradise without first experiencing death. He tells her that for him to walk away from her now that he has found her again would be to suffer a fresh bereavement. She replies that it is divinely decreed that he cannot cross over to her. The Dreamer pleads with his Pearl to accept that his rash questions were borne out of his great grief, and asks her to describe her life in Paradise. She relents, and tells him that she is crowned Queen of Heaven, and is married to the Lamb. The Dreamer is shocked by this assertion. He says that he thought only the Virgin Mary was Queen of Heaven. Pearl replies with a description of a-semi egalitarian heaven in which all inhabitants are kings and queens, and asserts that although Mary has pre-eminence, none of those in heaven would ever question it, because she is so “courteous”. She cites the Pauline notion that the church is the body of Christ in support of her claim. The Dreamer is even less convinced than before. He wonders how she can have been instantly crowned a Queen of Heaven when she was on the earth for less than two years. She replies at length, citing the parable of the labourers in the vineyard as justification for her rapid advancement in the kingdom of Heaven. She continues to retell the parable, and concludes by insisting that like the workers who worked less than two hours in the vineyard, she was first in line for God’s reward when she reached Heaven. The Dreamer cannot understand. Surely, he argues, those who have endured a lifetime’s pain and temptation must have precedence. She responds that those who die as children die innocent, whereas those who have lived longer are more likely to be tainted by the world, and argues that the Dreamer is underestimating the grace of God. She continues by expounding a series of Biblical texts on the theme of righteousness and justification, culminating with the scene from the gospels in which Christ welcomes the children, and reproves his disciples for attempting to repel them. She continues to expound on this theme, reminding the Dreamer that Christ insisted that one must become like a little child in order to approach him. The Dreamer admits that she is stupendously beautiful, but wonders how she can have won the title of Queen and bride of Christ, in the face of stiff competition: all those other women who have gone to heaven. Her reply draws upon the Old Testament prophets and the Book of Revelation: the Lamb which was slain in Jerusalem will return to govern the New Jerusalem as its King, with a company of a hundred and forty-four thousand wives – one of whom is the Pearl. She begins to describe the state of bliss experienced by all the brides of the Lamb.
Pearl: Part 15
“Jerusalem’s Lamb bears no tint
Of any pigment but pure white.
No spot or stain adheres to it –
The wool luxuriant and bright.
Each soul that never bore a spot
Becomes the Lamb’s stainless wife,
And there is no place for spite
Among our thousands – blessed with life:
Each thousand, multiplied by five,
Would only make us praise and bless
The more. In a host, love can thrive
And wax in honour, never less.
None of us is less in bliss
Who bears a pearl upon her breast.
Those whom a spot belies,
With pearls or crowns are never blessed.
Although our corpses are clad in clods
And you are grieving without rest,
We have new life beyond old loss
And in one death place all our trust:
The Lamb our joy, from cares released,
Moved to delight at every Mass –
And each bride’s bliss is brightest, best
Of all – none is honoured any the less.
You give less credence to my tale
Than you should. Look in the Apocalypse:
‘I say,’ says John, ‘the Lamb stands tall
On Mount Zion, is lovely, and thrives,
A hundred thousand in his trail –
Forty four thousand more than this!
And on their foreheads, true to tell:
The Lamb’s name, and the Father’s –
A choir from Heaven uplifts and sings
Like overflowing rivers, floods
And thunder rumbling in the clouds –
A rising clamour, and never less.
Nevertheless, though that shout is sharp
And though the myriad voice is loud,
A new sound makes my spirits leap.
To listen is to love: a great cloud
Of spirits plucking upon harps,
The new song clearly declaimed
In discourse sonorous and steep:
Harmonies, melodies, undefiled
Before God’s throne – a flood
Of song. Four beasts bow and bless;
The aldermen, the grave and good,
Sing it loudly, and never less.
Nevertheless, none is so skilled in song
For all the craft they might possess
That they could sing the slightest strain
Of that hymn – except for those
Of the Lamb’s company, the earth’s slain:
First fruits, set aside as God’s –
The Lamb’s treasures, kept from spoiling,
Like him in colour, clad in clothes
Of Heaven, dressed in truth and love’s
Assurance. Their sweet tongues confess:
Their spotless, indissoluble, heavenly lives
Are in their matchless Master – never less.’”
“Nevertheless, I cannot help but thank
You, Pearl,” I say, “though I chose
To question heavenly wisdom with rank
Worldliness. To Christ’s chamber you arose
While I floundered in mud and muck,
And you sprang up so rich – a rose,
A living bloom on this blissful bank,
Where delight’s angels never close
Their eyes on the beauty I must lose:
My fleeting hind. How can I express
My worldly thoughts, rough-hewn and coarse?
Yet grant me one boon, nevertheless...”
Late fourteenth century poem, written in a north-west midland dialect of Middle English, paraphrased by Giles Watson. This section of the poem is one stanza longer than the others. Some editors have suggested that the second stanza is not original, although I think the third is a more likely candidate, since it repeats material from section 14. However, if all six stanzas are included, the poem has 101 stanzas. So does Sir Gawain and the Green Knight – an attractive argument for authenticity, given that the poet was so meticulous in his deployment of structural devices. Pearl’s descriptions of heavenly life are drawn from the Book of Revelation and Ezekiel.

Feria Nacional de San Marcos. De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
La Feria de San Marcos considerada como "la Feria de México" es el festejo popular más importante de la ciudad de Aguascalientes realizado en honor a San Marcos evangelista, santo patrono designado del barrio del mismo nombre. Es considerada una feria de importancia nacional en México y tiene un gran prestigio aún a nivel internacional. Se realiza en la ciudad de Aguascalientes, México, en el barrio de San Marcos. El día más importante dentro de la feria es el 25 de abril, que coincide con el día de San Marcos.
En un principio, la fiesta se encontraba íntimamente unida con la vendimia ya que Aguascalientes era un importante productor de uva. Sin embargo, esta tradición sobrevive sólo durante las corridas de toros, donde se toma vino tinto mezclado con brandy de las tradicionales botas.
Durante el periodo (abril-mayo, dos últimas semanas y dos primeras semanas, respectivamente) que dura esta festividad, la zona del festejo se convierte en escenario de eventos artísticos, culturales y sociales abiertos a todo el público. No se restringe el acceso general al público ya que la zona que forma gran parte del escenario es ahora muy céntrica y abarca una buena parte del centro histórico de la ciudad.
En 2010 empezará su internacionalización donde la feria se hermanará con las ferias mas importantes y de mayor prestigio como son la de Sevilla en España, Nimes, Francia; Pomona, California; y Calgary, Canadá.
Historia
Su celebración se remonta a 1828, del 20 de octubre al 20 de noviembre, para vender el producto de las cosechas y la ganadería. En aquel entonces competía con las ferias de Acapulco, Jalapa y San Juan de los Lagos.
Al comienzo era celebrada en el Parián (palabra de origen filipino) que es un centro comercial que todavía existe y se localiza a dos cuadras de la plaza principal, esto hasta 1848. En 1842 la balaustrada externa del Jardín de San Marcos, de estilo neoclásico, fue construida en un terreno donado por la Iglesia Católica y se conserva hasta hoy; al ser completado el jardín la celebración fue cambiada de noviembre a abril para coincidir con las fiestas en honor del Santo Patrono.
Desde 1924 se organiza un concurso de belleza para elegir a la Reina de la Feria. En 1958 la feria fue elevada al rango "Nacional" por el Presidente Adolfo López Mateos.
La construcción de la plaza de toros San Marcos comenzó en 1896 y fue terminada en sólo 48 días. Fue inaugurada por Juan Jimenez "El Ecijano" lidiando toros de la ganadería de Venadero el 24 de Abril de ese mismo año. Esta plaza es entre las que permanecen en pie, una de las más antiguas del país. Desde entonces las corridas de toros son incluidas en las festividades. Debido a la gran tradición taurina en Aguascalientes y al creciente afluente de visitantes a la feria, en los años 70 fue construida una de las más bellas plazas de toros del mundo, la Plaza Monumental de Aguascalientes, misma que amplió, en 1992, su cupo de 7,500 a 15,000 personas cómodamente sentadas.
En 2009, por 1era. vez en toda la historia de la Feria, fue suspendida después de solo diez días debido a la Pandemia de gripe A (H1N1) de 2009 que afectó al país. Esta eventualidad mostró claramente la gran importancia de esta feria para Aguascalientes, ya que la economía local se afecto notoriamente por dicha causa.
Actividades
Esta feria abarca desde la tercera semana de abril hasta la primera semana de mayo (tres o cuatro semanas, es variable cada año), y es famosa internacionalmente por su(s):
1. Serial taurino. En el cual es común que se presenten las máximas figuras del momento a nivel mundial. Históricamente se han presentado toreros de la talla de Manolo Martínez, Manuel Capetillo, Rafael Rodríguez "El volcán de Aguascalientes", Manuel Benítez "El Cordobés", Curro Rivera, Paquirri, Alfonso Ramírez "El Calesero", Eloy Cavazos, El Juli, Zotoluco, Armillita, Manuel Espinosa, Pablo Hermoso de Mendoza,Jose Tomas,Arturo Macias "El Cejas", Enrique Ponce,César Rincón, Sebastian Castella y un largo etcétera (se invita a los taurinos de Aguascalientes a añadir los nombres más connotados).
2. Campeonato Nacional Charro, tradición del deporte nacional mexicano (la Charrería) organizado por la Unión de Asociaciones Charras de Aguascalientes, y que en este 2011 se llevará a cabo del 5 al 8 de Mayo en la Villa Charra "José Refugio Esparza Reyes" de la capital.
3. Peleas de gallos. Donde se presentan peleas participando bandos de todo el país y donde es legal apostar. En dicho escenario también se presentan los cantantes populares más reconocidos del momento en México.
4. Casino (único con permiso para operar legalmente en México). Donde se puede jugar a la redina (similar a la ruleta), black jack, baccarat, poker, albures, entre otros juegos de azar.
5. Modernas instalaciones (espacios abiertos, casi en el centro de la ciudad), que incluyen un Centro de Convenciones, zona de antros, teatros cerrados y al aire libre, Megavelaria, entre otras conectadas por amplios y elegantes andadores.
6. Juegos mecánicos de Atracciones García y Tsunami, la montaña rusa más grande del centro de México. también ahora en Isla San Marcos.
7. Amplia y variada Exposición Ganadera. Esta se realiza desde el 2008 en una nueva zona de la ciudad llamada "Isla San Marcos" que incluye un bello lago artificial y un reloj floral monumental.
8. Carreras de caballos. también se realizan en Isla San Marcos.
9. Eventos deportivos (donde se incluyen partidos profesionales de fútbol soccer del Necaxa, lucha libre y más).
10. Eventos culturales (como el Ferial) que es un espectáculo de danza y música de primer nivel que se renueva cada año con el fin de mantener el interés y conservarlo al día con la cultura popular del momento. Se lleva a cabo en el moderno Teatro Aguascalientes diseñado por el arquitecto Abraham Zabludovsky.
11. Eventos artísticos (como la variedad artística en el palenque "Sol-Federico Méndez")
12. Teatro del pueblo en la Megavelaria
13. Voladores de Papantla. Este se presenta en la explanada del templo de San Marcos.
14. Exposiciones diversas de países invitados que son diferentes cada año. En 2006 se invitó a Cuba, a Brasil en 2007, a España en 2008, a Francia en 2009 y a Italia en 2010. También se invita a un estado de México diferente cada año.
15. Jardín y templo de San Marcos.
16. Vida nocturna (centros nocturnos, antros, bares, merenderos y cantinas)
17. Restaurantes y hoteles.
18. Fuegos Artificiales y Recorridos desde el centro de la ciudad (Exedra) hasta la "Isla" San Marcos.

The land on the opposite bank seems even more beautiful. He wanders further down the stream, hoping to find a bridge or a ford. Just when he starts to become afraid of the dangers that may be in store for him, he sees a young woman sitting at the foot of a crystal cliff on the opposite bank, and instantly recognises her as his lost Pearl. He hails his Pearl and expresses his relief that she still exists, but she begins to reprove him for his lack of faith. She criticises him for only believing that her soul is immortal now that he can see her, and is shocked by his suggestion that he - a mortal man - has a hope of joining her in Paradise without first experiencing death. He tells her that for him to walk away from her now that he has found her again would be to suffer a fresh bereavement. She replies that it is divinely decreed that he cannot cross over to her. The Dreamer pleads with his Pearl to accept that his rash questions were borne out of his great grief, and asks her to describe her life in Paradise. She relents, and tells him that she is crowned Queen of Heaven, and is married to the Lamb. The Dreamer is shocked by this assertion. He says that he thought only the Virgin Mary was Queen of Heaven. Pearl replies with a description of a-semi egalitarian heaven in which all inhabitants are kings and queens, and asserts that although Mary has pre-eminence, none of those in heaven would ever question it, because she is so “courteous”. She cites the Pauline notion that the church is the body of Christ in support of her claim. The Dreamer is even less convinced than before. He wonders how she can have been instantly crowned a Queen of Heaven when she was on the earth for less than two years. She replies at length, citing the parable of the labourers in the vineyard as justification for her rapid advancement in the kingdom of Heaven. She continues to retell the parable, and concludes by insisting that like the workers who worked less than two hours in the vineyard, she was first in line for God’s reward when she reached Heaven. The Dreamer cannot understand. Surely, he argues, those who have endured a lifetime’s pain and temptation must have precedence. She responds that those who die as children die innocent, whereas those who have lived longer are more likely to be tainted by the world, and argues that the Dreamer is underestimating the grace of God. She continues by expounding a series of Biblical texts on the theme of righteousness and justification, culminating with the scene from the gospels in which Christ welcomes the children, and reproves his disciples for attempting to repel them. She further expounds on this theme:
“Righteous Christ told his disciples:
‘There is a Kingdom you’ll never win
Unless you come as a little child.
The grown are barred – they’ll not get in.
The harmless, helpless, undefiled,
Unspotted by some smearing sin:
They stand and knock, shy and mild,
And on its hinge, the door swings
Wide open. Bliss beckons them within:
That bliss for which the jeweller searched
And sold his goods, both wool and linen,
To buy a pearl so unbesmirched.
That pearl is unbesmirched, so dear
The jeweller sold off all his goods:
It’s like a globe of heaven, clear
As Yahweh’s firmament and flood,
For it is flawless – crystal clear –
Round and endless, like the world,
The jewel of all whose holy fear
Was cleansing.’ At my breast it glowed –
My Lord, the Lamb, who spouted blood,
He set it there, pledged peace, and reached
Into my heart. Forsake this raging, wild
World. Buy this Pearl. It’s unbesmirched.”
“You, Pearl, unbesmirched and pure,
Who wears, I swear, the Pearl of Price,
What maker formed your fair figure?
Who made your clothes? – For he was wise.
Your beauty bedazzles mere nature –
Pygmalion failed to paint your face
And Aristotle couldn’t conjure
Out of words your virtues, grace
And properties. You shame the fleur-de-lys.
Your radiant face is angel-touched.
What oyster opened to unleash
A Pearl so pale and unbesmirched?”
“My unbesmirched Lamb amended all,”
She says, “Bade me be his bride –
And I, unworthy of his call
By worldly rules, could not deny
Him. I left your dank world – the Fall
Mouldered it. He blessed me, high
As Heaven: ‘Come here!’ I couldn’t forestall.
‘No spot or stain is to be scried
In your white skin.’ He gave beauty, swilled
My clothes in blood amidst his church,
And crowned, cleansed, acquitted, plied
Me with pearls – all unbesmirched.”
“Unbesmirched bride who burns like flame,
Consort to Christ, rich and alive,
What kind of creature is this Lamb
Who woos with you and makes you wife –
And with such competition? How’d you climb
To lead with him a Lady’s life?
So many women must come, comb
Their hair, flutter eyelashes, give strife
To Christ! D’you have the skill to drive
Them all away? Don’t they screech
At you? Are you so powerful and alive –
A matchless maiden, and unbesmirched?”
Late fourteenth century poem, written in a north-west midland dialect of Middle English, paraphrased by Giles Watson. The concatenation centres on the word “maskelles”, which means “spotless”, but which is easily – and once deliberately – confused with “makeless”, or “matchless”. Pearl’s argument makes reference to the parable of the Pearl of Price (Matthew 13: 45-6), and she also refers to the Song of Solomon (4: 7-8) in her metaphor of the mystical marriage to Christ. The assertion that the Pearl is “round and endless” (“endelez rounde”) is an image of perfection which underpins the structure of the whole poem: the complex interrelationships set up by the concatenation in different sections, combined with the circular pattern of the whole, which begins and ends with the same imagery and lexis, are an attempt on the part of the poet to mirror in words the spherical perfection of the pearl. It has been argued that the references to Pygmalion and Aristotle are derived from the Romance of the Rose, but it is more likely that these were simply traditional comparisons. The passage about the oyster is controversial. In the only surviving manuscript, the word looks like “offys” (“office”), and modern translations usually conform to this: “Tell me, fair maid, what kind of office/ Bears the pearl so matchless.” However, one scholar has suggested that a small pen-stroke could have made all the difference, and the word becomes “ostriys” (“oysters”). This suggestion is so attractive, and so consistent with the poem’s central image, that I have followed it. (See ref. to Bradley, unpublished, in Malcolm Andrew and Ronald Waldron, The Poems of the Pearl Manuscript: Pearl, Cleanness, Patience, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Exeter, 2002, p. 89n.) It is unusual for the Gawain poet to rhyme twice on the same word. I have preserved his repetition of "clear" in this section, because it is clearly deliberate, and for emphasis.

The paternal great-grandfather, grandfather and father of G. K. Chesterton were engaged in the business of selling houses (estate agents as they are called in England). His father, Edward, married Marie Grosjean, whose family had long been English, but had originally come from French Switzerland. They had three children, Gilbert, born on May 29, 1874, Cecil, five years his junior, and Beatrice, who died in childhood.
Gilbert's father distinguished between living and making a living: a successful businessman, he had a dozen hobbies, not the least of them the making of a toy-theatre, and he was widely read, especially in English literature.
A happy childhood in a happy home laid the foundation for Gilbert's sane and sensible outlook on life. As a little boy he read fairy tales; as a big boy he wrote and illustrated them, some of which are preserved in his book The Coloured Lands. Gilbert first attended Colet Court School, entering St. Paul's as a day student when he was twelve. The reports on him for his six years there (1887-92) were that he was a good boy but an indifferent student, a dreamer, interested chiefly in drawing and English literature. In his "dramatic journal,"kept irregularly from his sixteenth year, he dramatized scenes from Scott and burlesqued portions of Shakespeare. He later acknowledged the strong influence on his youthful formation made by the Junior Debating Club, of which he was chairman. It met weekly at the home of one of its dozen teenage members and, following tea, one of them read a paper which was then debated. In the issues of its organ, The Debater, his first prose and verse were printed; his essays on Milton, Pope, Gray, Cowper, Burns, and Wordsworth being noteworthy. In his last year at St. Paul's (1892), he entered a competition for a prize poem (on St. Francis Xavier), and won it. From 1892 to 1895 he studied art at the Slade School and during part of the time he attended lectures on English literature at University College. A fellow-student whose family controlled the publishing firm of Hodder & Stoughton gave him some art books to review in the firm's monthly, The Boohman. And upon leaving Slade, he entered the office of a publisher of spiritualistic literature and later the office of the general publisher, Fisher Unwin. There he began to write Greybeards at Play as well as to revise, edit and counsel the works of others.
At St. Paul's Gilbert formed lifelong friendships with the future writer Edmund C. Bentley and with Lucian Oldershaw. In 1896 Lucian was courting Ethel Blogg (anglicized from Blogue) and took Gilbert with him to call. At first sight he fell in love with her sister Frances and, after a courtship extended by his then meager earnings, they were married in 1901. It was Lucian who, in 1900, also introduced the twenty-six-year old Gilbert to the thirty-year-old Belloc. Their reciprocal influence was lifelong as was their friendship.
In 1899 Gilbert began writing for The Speaker, a Liberal weekly. His first book, a volume of comic verse which he also illustrated, Greybeards at Play, was successfully published in 1900; later that year, his father financed publication of his second book, The Wild Knight and Other Poems. But it was his brilliant though unpopular pro-Boer stand on the Boer War which first brought him to public attention, and by 1901 he also was writing regularly for The Daily News. His third book, The Defendant (1901), comprised some of his essays from The Speaker, and is suffused with paradoxes, a literary form which has since been associated with his name. ("I did not acquit Chesterton of paradox," wrote his great admirer Msgr. Knox, "but, after all, what was a paradox but a statement of the obvious so as to make it sound untrue?")
He prided himself on being a journalist, and much of his work was first published in the popular journals of the day, many of his books being collected and edited from these essays, and much more of it has never been collected at all.
He was a tall man-six-foot two, and a stout one- nearly three hundred pounds; he dressed unconventionally in a wide-brimmed slouch hat and a flowing cloak; and carried a walking stick; he had a leonine head and a rather straggly blonde mustache. By the time he was only thirty-two he had become famous, instantly recognized in public and in caricature. True, some of his most popular works had been published by then: G. F Watts (1902), Twelve Types (1902), Robert Browning (in the English Men of Letters series, 1903), The Napoleon of Notting Nill, which he called his first important book (1904), The Club of Queer Trades (1905), Heretics (1905), and Charles Dickens (1906). And in social intercourse he was already one with such personalities of the day as Joseph Conrad, Henry James, Laurence Binyon, James M. Barrie, Max Beerbohm, Swinburne, George Meredith, Yeats, and Granville Barker.
In 1904, Sir Oliver Lodge invited him to become a candidate for the Chair of Literature at Birmingham University, but he declined. The invitation was doubtless extended on the strength of his books on Browning and on Dickens. The success of the latter was such that he was requested to write a series of prefaces to all of Dickens' novels.
At the time of his marriage he believed in the basic Christian religious truths but in no particular religion. His wife was a convinced Anglo-Catholic, and she was particularly pleased when in 1905 he accepted an invitation to be the first of a series of lay preachers in St. Paul's Church, Covent Garden.
From this time on there was an almost constant stream of lecture engagements far and wide and to almost every type of organization,-religious, literary, social, and even political. He was famous, he was wanted, and he couldn't say no. His wife became his secretary recording times, places, subjects, and arranging itineraries. He became so pressed for time that he had to write at odd moments and to do his newspaper essays at deadline. This constant pressure extended from 1904 to 1908. He was notoriously absent-minded. Typical was the telegram he sent his wife when he was en route to give a lecture: "Am in Market Harborough. Where ought I to be?~' He hated physical exertion as much as he reveled in mental activity.
Another phantasy, The Man Who Was Thursday (1907) was followed by Orthodoxy (1908). When Gilbert had attacked the philosophy of G. S. Street, he retorted that he would worry about it when G.K. would clarify his own. The tesult was Orthodoxy, a series of positive arguments for Christianity. Etienne Gilson considered it ''The best piece of apologetic the century has produced." Incidentally, Gilbert sold the manuscript outright for about $400.00. The meager returns on his numerous and popular writings moved him at this time to employ a literary agent; with gratifying results.
He began a weekly column, "Our Notebook,'' in The Illustrated London News in 1905 and continued it until his death thirty-one years later.
In 1909 he and his wife moved from Battersea, London, to the suburban town of Beaconsfield, which was to be their home for the rest of their lives. Their desire for children was never to be fulfilled; later they adopted Dorothy Collins who had become Gilbert's secretary in 1926. At Overroads, their Beaconsfield home, he was removed from the bustle and bars of Fleet Street and had more leisure for his friends: Max Beerbohm, Jack Phillmore, Msgr. O'Connor, Maurice Baring, Belloc, George Wyndham, Msgr. Knox, and a host of others. But his social life did not deter the stream of his books, as witness The Ball and the Cross, What's Wrong With the World (changed by his publishers from What's Wrong? and in which he formulated his sociology), Alarms and Discursions, and Blake (all published in 1910), Criticisms and Appreciations of Dickens, The Innocence of Father Brown, and, what many deem his greatest writing, The Ballad of the White Horse (all published in 1911). Too, his interest in politics, which he had had from boyhood, became more active: he began by fighting the sale of peerages as a means of secretly raising party funds, and continued blasting every other form of political corruption. Of necessity this interest included social reform, public education, a free press, etc. He resigned from the Liberal owned Daily News (a property of Cadbury of Cadbury's Cocoa) to write for the Daily Herald. He doubtless resigned just before being asked to, for his recent statements regarding the Liberal party leaders included: "Some of them are very nice oldgentlemen, some of them are very nasty old gentlemen, and some of them are old without being gentlemen at all." And again, "The best of His Majesty's Ministers are agnostics, and the worst are devil worshippers." This hit hard because at least nominally Church of England men (some ecclesiastics) were the predominant rulers of the realm.
Reacting against what they believed wrong with the English social-economic condition, Gilbert, his brother Cecil, and Belloc formulated their own program: Distributism. One of their principal points of controversy was over private ownership, chiefly ownership of the land which was tragically curtailed by the law of enclosure by which some five million acres ceased in effect to be the common property of the poor and became the private property of the rich. In books and articles they carried on their fight for the liberty of Englishmen against increasing enslavement to a plutocracy, and to expose and combat corruption in public life. As their audience increased and took form, they decided upon publishing their own paper. It was called The Eye Witness, from 1911-12, The New Witness, from 1912-23, G.K.'s Weekly, from 1925-36, and The Weekly Review, since 1936. It was edited at various times by each of the three. In the Marconi case, they contended that Godfrey Isaacs had used Rulus Isaacs to purchase ministerial favor. The court verdict in this complicated litigation was a gentle rebuke to the Isaacs and a small fine for editor Cecil. So small in view of the serious charges made that the Chesterbelloc considered it a moral victory. But the government then showed its contempt for integrity by appointing Godfrey Isaacs as the Viceroy of India and giving Rufus the title of Lord Reading.
Gilbert's books in this period included Manalive (1911), A Miscellany of Men, essays (1912), The Victorian Age in Literature (1913), The Wisdom of Father Brown (1914), and The Flying Inn (1914). His poetic play, Magic, was produced in England in October 1913, and in Germany soon afterward. And following a conversation with Msgr. O'Connor on the subject, he wrote his best known single poem, "The Ballad of Lepanto" (19 12).
In September 1916, Cecil enlisted as a private in the army and died in France on December 6, 1918. Upon his enlistment, Gilbert succeeded him as editor of The New Witness.
Gilbert went on a lecture tour to Palestine (which became a determining factor in his conversion) in 1919, to Italy in 1920, and to the United States in 1921-22 and again in 1930-31. From these travels came The New Jerusalem (1920), What I Saw in America (1922) and Sidelights on New London and Newer York (1932). His American tour included a series of thirty-six lectures on Victorian literature and history at the University of Notre Dame (his poem "The Arena" commemorates his visit), as well as talks delivered at San Francisco, Omaha, Oklahoma City, Nashville, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Boston, and other cities.
The same period witnessed the publication of his Irish Impressions (1919), The Uses of Diversity (1920), The Superstition of Divorce (1920), Eugenics and Other Evils (1922), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1922), and Fancies Versus Fads (1923). Some idea of his intellectual fertility is indicated by the fact that at one time he had thirty books contracted for with various publishers.
Gilbert's brother Cecil had become a Catholic shortly before going to war and Gilbert himself had been forming a Catholic mind slowly but steadily from about the same time. But he was not one to be hurried and fortunately even his closest friends, Maurice Baring and Ronald Knox (themselves converts), though he acknowledged their influence upon him, did not try to hurry him. Eventually it was Father O'Connor who received him into the Church in 1922. On the same day he wrote his celebrated poem "The Convert." By her own conscience his wife followed him into the fold four years later.
The time between the death of The New Witness in 1923 and the birth of G.K.'s Weekly in 1925 gave him sufficient leisure to write two of his most important books: St. Francis of Assisi (1923) and The Everlasting Man (1925) . But to the paper which enshrined his brother's memory though it now bore his own initials, Gilbert devoted much of his time as editor from 1925 to 1930. Most of those who knew him regarded it as a sacrifice. Besides Belloc and himself, a steady contributor was Eric Gill; out of friendship for Gilbert, Shaw and Wells contributed occasionally.
In 1926 the social and economic program of the paper feathered the Distributist League, of which Gilbert was elected president. He stated that ''Their simple idea was to restore possession." To restore property and prosperity to the people from whom it had been taken by big government and big business. Distributism was to be a practical alternative to Capitalism and Socialism. Branches were soon established throughout England and the circulation of its organ, G.K.'s Weekly, rose from 4,650 to 8,000 copies. The influence of the movement far exceeded its numbers; men like Father McNabb, O.P., in England (whom some hold fathered rather than was a disciple of the movement), Msgr. Ligutti in the United States, Dr. Coady and Dr. Tompkins in Canada, as well as others in Australia and New Zealand, acknowledged its influence upon their labors.
Despite the yearly loss by the paper and his constant charity to the needy, from panhandlers to causes, Gilbert helped to build the Church at Beaconsfield, until then a mission of High Wycomb parish. It became his memorial.
In 1926 were published The Outline of Sanity, The Catholic Church and Conversion, The Incredulity of Father Brown (as Gilbert said to Father Rice, "My publishers have demanded a fresh batch of corpses"), and The Queen of the Seven Swords; in 1926, his Collected Poems, The Return of Don Quixote (which first appeared serially in G.K.'s Weekly), Robert Louis Stevenson, The Secret of Father Brown, and a play, The Judgment of Dr. Johnson. Like his Magic, it was successful as literature, not as theatre. The Father Brown detective stories brought him charter membership in the Detection Club (1929) and soon afterwards its presidency.
He spent a month of 1927 in Poland, a nation whose true place in Europe he held high. Two years later his visit to Rome resulted in The Resurrection of Rome (1930). His more successful books of this period were his Catholic essays, The Thing (1929), and the two volumes of general essays, Come to Think of It (1930) and All Is Grist (1931), and his reflections flowing from the Eucharistic Congress which he and his wife attended in 1932, Christendom in Dublin, his studies of Chaucer and of St. Thomas Aquinas. Of this last, Etienne Gilson, a foremost Thomistic scholar, said: "I consider it as being without possible comparison the best book ever written on St. Thomas. And P'ere Gillet, O.P., MasterGeneral of the Dominican Order, lectured on and from it to large meetings of Dominicans.
From 1932 until his death he engaged increasingly in radio lectures, delivering as many as forty a year over the B.B.C. The B.B.C. is a state monopoly (as such, Gilbert attacked it: "It is wicked to nationalize mines and railroads; but we lose no time in nationalizing tongues and talk''), and he had to submit a manuscript for each lecture; but, for the sake of spontaneity, he was not held to the letter of it. These talks were so well received that a B.B.C. official remarked after his death that "G.K.C. in another year or so would have become the dominating voice from Broadcasting House." Too, they reached untold thousands who had never read his writings.
While in Rome, Gilbert interviewed Mussolini and had an audience with the Holy Father. In 1934 he was elected, honoris causa, to the Athenaeum Club. Both he and Belloc were invested as Papal Knight Commanders of the Order of St. Gregory with Star. At his death in 1936 the Holy See cabled Cardinal Hinsley: "Holy Father deeply grieved death Mr. Gilbert Keith Chesterton devoted son of Holy Church gifted Defender of the Catholic Faith. His Holiness offers paternal sympathy people of England, assures prayers dear departed, bestows Apostolic Benediction."
The panegyric was delivered in Westminster Cathedral by Msgr. Ronald Knox. His monument was designed by Eric Gill and burial was at Beaconsfield. His wife survived him by a little more than two years.
He had employed his great God-given gifts with humility and charity; indeed these two virtues characterized his life.
Books on him are numerous: first in time and also very important is G. K. Chesterton: a Criticism (1908), published anonymously but later learned to be by his brother Cecil; Belloc's brief but brilliant The Place of Chesterton in English Letters (1940); Father Brown on Chesterton (1937) by Msgr. John O'Connor; The Laughing Prophet (1937) by Emile Cammaerts is concerned more with the man than with the writer; Chesterton As Seen by His Contemporaries (1939), includes material by Gilbert himself, edited by Cyril Clemens; Gilbert's Autobiography (published posthumously in 1936), in which, with characteristic humility, he seems bent upon writing about everyone but himself; and the definitive biography, G. K. Chesterton (1943) by his long-time friend, Maisie Ward (Mrs. Frank J. Sheed).
Lu Xiu’en was a preacher of a house church in China. Believing the rumors and notions spread by the pastor, she insisted that man’s sins had been forgiven by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus, that man was saved by faith and didn’t need to receive any other salvation. As a result, she resisted and rejected Almighty God’s gospel in the last days many times…. However, an unexpected experience made her see the true face of the pastor, and thus she had some discernment of him and her heart began to awaken. Just at that time, Almighty God’s gospel in the last days came upon her. This broke her imaginations and notions about God’s work and gave her a brand new knowledge of salvation and full salvation. And then she accepted Almighty God’s gospel in the last days without hesitation. However, the pastor didn’t stop disturbing her, and this caused her great distress. Under the watering of Almighty God’s word, she saw clearly the ugly face of the pastor and his deceptive tricks. She awakened resolutely….

The Queen of Romania is a descendant of the prince of Moldavia (Jeremy Movila) via Maria Leczynska Queen of Louis XV of France and through their descendants to the Bourbob-Parme branch of the French and Danish Royal Families.
Prince Ieremia Movila was a great patron of the arts and founder of the painted convents of Bucovina. During his reign the principality of Moldavia experienced a renaissance of its decorative arts, especially the post-byzantine style religious embroideries.
--------------------
Regina Ana, Printesa de Danemarca si de Bourbon-Parma se trage, asa cum spune numele din Bourboni,
mai precis din ramura spaniola a Bourbonilor care erau si Duci de Parma.
Pornind pe linie directa ascendenta a familiei de Bourbon-Parma, deci pe linie barbateasca ,ajungem la Ferdinand I de Bourbon, Duce de Parma (1751-1802) nepotul Lui Filip V regele Spaniei si Duce de Anjou (1683, Versailles - 1746 Madrid).
Acest Ferdinand I Infante de Spania (1751-1802),care preceda cu sase generatii pe Ana de Bourbon-Parma a noastra [sper si a domniei tale] ) era casatorit cu printesa Louise Elisabeth de France (1727-1759), fiica lui Ludovic al XV regele Frantei si a sotiei lui Maria Leczynska ( 1703-1768) regina Frantei, care la randul ei era fiica lui Stanislas Lesczynski regele Poloniei si Duce de Lorena (1677-1766).
Acum, ca sa ajungem la Movilesti trebuie sa trecem pe ramurile femeiesti:
Bunica materna a lui Stanislas Lesczinski (socrul lui Ludovic XV) era Maria Ana Printesa Jabolonowska (1643-1687) nascuta contesa Kasanowska, iar bunica materna a acesteia din urma era Domnita Maria Movila ( 1591-1638) (fata lui Ieremia Voda), domnita moldoveanca al carui sot era Contele Stefan Potocki, Palatin de Wroclaw si prin care casatorie era cunoscuta in Polonia drept Marya Mohylanka.
Aceasta inseamna, bine inteles, ca prin stramosii ei Movilesti, Regina Ana de Romania se trage, prin Iermia Voda Movila, chiar din Petru Rares si din Stefan cel Mare si Sfant, iar prin acesta din urma din Dragos Voda primul descalecator al Moldovei.
Despre domnita Maria Movila contesa Potocka ne vorbeste istoricul Constantin GANE (1885-1962) in celebra lui lucrare "Trecute Vieti de Doamne si Domnite".

NOTE:
Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more.

Κυριαρχία του Θεού
Ο Θεός λέει: «Αυτές οι μεταβάσεις από την άνοιξη στο καλοκαίρι, στο φθινόπωρο και στον χειμώνα – αυτές οι αλλαγές συμβαίνουν όλες σύμφωνα με τους νόμους που θέσπισε ο Θεός. Καθοδηγεί όλα τα πλάσματα και τους ανθρώπους χρησιμοποιώντας αυτούς τους νόμους και έχει θεσπίσει έναν πλούσιο και πολύχρωμο τρόπο ζωής για το ανθρώπινο γένος, προετοιμάζοντας ένα περιβάλλον για επιβίωση που έχει διαφορετικές θερμοκρασίες και διαφορετικές εποχές. Υπό αυτά τα μεθοδικά περιβάλλοντα επιβίωσης, οι άνθρωποι μπορούν επίσης να επιβιώσουν και να πολλαπλασιαστούν με οργανωμένο τρόπο. Οι άνθρωποι δεν μπορούν να αλλάξουν αυτούς τους νόμους και ούτε ένα άτομο ή πλάσμα δεν μπορεί να τους παραβεί. Δεν έχει σημασία τι ριζοσπαστικές αλλαγές συμβαίνουν στον κόσμο, αυτοί οι νόμοι συνεχίζουν να υπάρχουν και υπάρχουν επειδή υπάρχει ο Θεός. Αυτό συμβαίνει χάρη στη διακυβέρνηση και τη διαχείριση του Θεού. Με αυτού του είδους το οργανωμένο, ευρύτερο περιβάλλον, η ζωή των ανθρώπων προχωρά μέσα στα πλαίσια αυτών των νόμων και κανονισμών. Αυτοί οι νόμοι καλλιέργησαν τη μια ανθρώπινη γενιά μετά την άλλη και ολόκληρες γενιές ανθρώπων έχουν επιβιώσει μέσα στα πλαίσια αυτών των νόμων. Οι άνθρωποι απολαμβάνουν τα όντα και αυτό το τακτικό περιβάλλον για επιβίωση που δημιούργησε ο Θεός για ολόκληρες γενιές ανθρώπων. Παρόλο που οι άνθρωποι αισθάνονται ότι αυτοί οι τύποι νόμων είναι έμφυτοι, παρόλο που τους απορρίπτουν πλήρως και παρόλο που δεν μπορούν να νιώσουν ότι ο Θεός ενορχηστρώνει αυτούς τους νόμους, ότι ο Θεός κυβερνά πάνω από αυτούς τους νόμους, ό,τι και να γίνει, ο Θεός είναι πάντα απασχολημένος με αυτό το αμετάβλητο έργο. Ο σκοπός Του σε αυτό το αμετάβλητο έργο είναι η επιβίωση του ανθρώπινου γένους, έτσι ώστε να συνεχίσουν να ζουν οι άνθρωποι. ...»

Esculápio, Museu Chiaramonti, Braccio Nuovo.
Following, a text, in english, from Speedy look, at the address www.speedylook.com/Esculape.html .
Esculape is the Roman equivalent of the Greek god Asclépios.
Wire of Apollo and Coronis, only daughter of Phlégias, king of Béotie, Esculape were born on the Mont Titthion, on the side of Épidaure, in the Peloponnese. He is the father of Télesphore. Like the word κορώνη / korốnê in Greek means crow , one said that Esculape had been born from an egg of this bird, under the figure of a Serpent. It is added that Phlégyas, irritated against Apollon who had returned his daughter mother of Esculape, put fire at the temple of Delphes and which it is eternally punished by it in the Tartar where a large rock, suspended above its head, at every moment threatens to crush it in its fall.
According to others, Coronis was killed by Diane, or Apollon in an access of jealousy, and its body was already placed on the funeral Bûcher, when Mercure or Apollo himself put Esculape at the day. The child, initially entrusted to a named nurse Trygone, passed soon to the school Centaure Chiron where it made fast progress in the knowledge of simple and in the composition of the remedies; he practiced with such an amount of skill and success art to cure the wounds and the diseases which he was regarded as the god of the surgery and the Médecine.
He accompanied Hercules and Jason in forwarding by the Colchide and rendered great services to the Argonautes. Not very glad to cure the patients, it ressuscita even deaths. One saw, in the fable of Apollo, how this temerity was punished. Esculape seeming to usurp the rights of the supreme, main divinity thus of the life of the men, Jupiter exterminated it of a love at first sight. But, after his death, one did not leave return the divine honors to him.
Certain authors claimed that it formed in the sky the constellation which one called the Serpentaire. According to Pausanias, its descendants reigned in part of the Messénie, and it was from there that Machaon and Podalire, its two sons, left for the Trojan War.
All is only wonder in this fable. If, for example, Apollon bored his arrows the mother of Esculape, it is that the corbel had wrongfully accused Coronis to have other loves. Soon, the god reproached himself for having lent the ear to this calumny, and was avenged for the corbel by changing into black his white plumage hitherto.
Its worship was established initially in Épidaure, place of its birth; from there, it spread soon in all the Greece. One honoured it in Épidaure in the form with a snake.
An ivory and gold statue, works Trasymède of Paros, represented it under the figure of a man sitting on a throne, having a stick of a hand, and pressing the other on the head of a snake, with a dog lying close to him.
The cock, the snake and the tortoise, symbols of vigilance and prudence necessary to the Doctor S, were especially devoted to him. One nourished Couleuvre S deprived in the temple of Épidaure, and one even claimed that it was under this figure that it was let see; at least, the Romains believed that it had come on their premises in this form, when they sent an embassy to Épidaure to beseech the protection of the god against the plague which afflicted their city.
Athens and Rome solemnly celebrated the festivals called Épidauries or Esculapies in the honor of this god. In the shape of statues, Esculape is generally represented under the features of a man serious, bearded, and carrying a crown of bay-tree; it holds with a hand a Patère, other a twisted stick of a snake.
Esculápio
A seguir um texto, em português, da Wikipédia, a Enciclopédia livre:
Esculápio (em latim: Aesculapius) era o deus romano da medicina e da cura. Foi herdado diretamente da mitologia grega, na qual tinha as mesmas propriedades mas um nome sutilmente diferente: Asclépio (em grego: Ἀσκληπιός, transl. Asklēpiós).
Segundo reza o mito, Esculápio nasceu como mortal, mas depois da sua morte foi-lhe concedida a imortalidade, transformando-se na constelação Ofiúco. Dentre seus filhos encontram-se Hígia e Telésforo.
Curiosamente, na província da Lusitânia, correspondente ao atual território de Portugal, Esculápio era especialmente venerado, enquanto em Roma era considerado uma divindade menor.
O culto a Esculápio foi muito prestigiado no mundo antigo. Os santuários erigidos em sua homenagem se converteram em sanatórios.
Na Ilíada de Homero, Esculápio é apresentado como um hábil cirurgião. Píndaro e Hesíodo detalham como Zeus acabou por fulminar Asclépio com um raio. Consta que a atitude do deus foi porque Asclépio pretendia igualar-se aos deuses tornando os seres humanos imortais.
Depois de algum tempo, Esculápio passou a ser considerado como filho de Apolo com a mortal Corônis, tendo então o poder de curar aos enfermos.
No Peloponeso, no século VI a.C., foram erigidos um templo chamado de Epidauro e um teatro. Lá eram acolhidos os peregrinos e enfermos que acorriam para a festa em honra de Esculápio, a Epidauria. Patrono dos médicos, sua figura aparecia nos ritos místicos de Elêusis.
Em Roma, por ordem das profecias sibilinas, que foram um conjunto de oráculos do ano 293 a.C., o culto a Esculápio foi iniciado.
Esculápio era representado como um homem barbudo, com o ombro direito descoberto, de olhar sereno ao horizonte, ora acompanhado de sua filha Hygiea (Higia, a saúde), ora sozinho. Seu braço esquerdo, sempre aparece apoiado num cajado, confundido às vezes com o caduceu de Mercúrio, que possui duas serpentes, enquanto em volta de seu bastão há apenas uma serpente. O caduceu de Asclépio ou bordão de Esculápio se transformou no símbolo da medicina.

NOTAS ARTÍSTICAS
El templo, único edificio español levantado íntegramente en estilo neobizantino, fue obra del prestigioso arquitecto D. Fernando de Arbós y Tremanti (1840-1916), académico de San Fernando.
Se presenta al exterior como un potente bloque de mármol blanco concebido para sustentar una airosa cúpula forrada de cobre rojo, decorada con arquerías ojivales ciegas, y rematada por una estilizada linterna coronada con una bola y una cruz. En el cuerpo central, de planta octogonal como corresponde a un edificio funerario, se disponen cuatro vanos monumentales. A los lados de estos ventanales, emparejadas de dos en dos, se levantan ocho torrecillas, decoradas con diseños geométricos, que contribuyen a aligerar el aspecto exterior y funcionan como contrafuertes para la cúpula. En el tambor de la misma se abren dieciséis ventanales de características similares a las anteriores, que vierten al interior un caudal de luz. A los pies del edificio, junto a la entrada principal y unida por su base al cuerpo de la iglesia, se alza una magnífica torre cuadrada, dividida en cuatro cuerpos.
En el interior nos encontramos con una curiosa disposición espacial, mezcla de planta central y cruz latina en la que sus brazos se conforman de manera diversa. El ábside, de planta semicircular, acoge el altar mayor realizado en mármol blanco de Macaél e incrustaciones geométricas de varios colores, presidido por una imagen del Salvador cuya altura es de dos metros y medio, y dos laterales, ambas de un metro y treinta centímetros, representando a San Agustín y San José, esculpidas las tres en mármol de Carrara. En la bóveda, cubierta de mosaicos, se encuentra la figura sedente de Cristo, Señor del universo, bendiciendo y sosteniendo la bola del mundo en la mano derecha, acompañado de los doce apóstoles, identificados por su iconografía tradicional y separados por palmeras triunfales de frondosas hojas.
La capilla funeraria de planta rectangular, localizada en el brazo derecho del templo, está presidida por un altar de mármol de Carrara dedicado a San Benito, cuya imagen, de metro treinta de alto, lo representa en hábito monástico y está situada en la parte central bajo un templete de líneas clásicas. Sobre el ara se eleva una columna muy estilizada que sustenta un ángel funerario con las alas desplegadas, su blancura deslumbrante destaca sobre el fondo decorado con un mosaico estrellado. A ambos lados del altar descrito se sitúan los sepulcros de los fundadores, el de D. Manuel Caviggioli a la izquierda y el de D.ª Benita Maurici a la derecha.
Entre el ábside del altar mayor y la capilla funeraria se encuentra el púlpito realizado en mármol de Macaél de varios colores, predominando el blanco. El tornavoz de forma pentagonal como el púlpito inferior, está coronado por el "Águila de Hipona" con las alas desplegadas, en clara alusión a San Agustín, maestro de oratoria sagrada.
En el brazo izquierdo se encuentra la capilla de Santa Rita. De planta pentagonal, cubierta por bóveda facetada y adornada con mosaicos que siguen el estilo general del templo, custodia un altar central, trabajado en mármol de Carrara, en el que se sitúa la imagen de Santa Rita, religiosa agustiniana, bajo un templete de características similares al del altar de la capilla funeraria. En los laterales se han dispuestos dos pequeños altares cuyos retablos están formados por arcos góticos trilobulados en forma de nicho. Carentes de imágenes en el momento de la realización del templo, en ellos se han situado dos tallas de escaso valor artístico, realizadas poco después de haberse finalizado el templo. Una imagen de Ntra. Sra. de la Consolación, que intenta plasmar modelos barrocos de mejor fortuna, ocupa el lateral derecho. El izquierdo está dedicado a la Virgen del Camino, concebida como una "piedad" que sigue el típico modelo del gótico de transición, protegida bajo un baldaquino de metal plateado. Esta última imagen fue donada por una asociación de "Señoras de León" que celebraba la advocación mariana del Camino en esta iglesia y que terminó su existencia con la guerra civil. En esta capilla se ha entronizado el 25 de octubre de 2000 la imagen de Ntra. Sra. de Luján, patrona de Argentina, para que la colonia argentina en España tenga un lugar en Madrid donde manifestar su devoción a la venerada imagen. Desde octubre del año 2007 se pueden venerar también en esta capilla las reliquias de los Beatos Mártires Agustinos del siglo XX en España.
A los pies del templo, donde se abre la puerta principal del mismo, se encuentra, situado en el coro alto, el magnífico órgano construido por la casa alemana "Walcker" de Stuttgart en 1910 y que fue restaurado en 1977. Las solemnidades litúrgicas y las diversas celebraciones se han realzado siempre con su música y con las voces del coro fundado en 1911. Han destacado también sus organistas: Moreno Ballesteros y su hijo Moreno Torroba, Larrínaga y Guridi. El mejor momento del órgano y del coro comienza, sin embargo, a partir de 1961 cuando se hace cargo de ambos el agustino P. Domingo Losada, auténtico maestro que no limita su intervención al acompañamiento litúrgico sino que ofrece y organiza en el templo numerosos conciertos -30ª Ediciones de la Semana Internacional de Órgano- que acreditan su talento musical y refuerzan la dedicación cultural que es característica particular de la Orden Agustiniana,
La cúpula, sustentada sobre pechinas en las que se encuentran mosaicos representando los símbolos de los evangelistas, se despliega sobre el cuerpo central del edificio. Profusamente iluminada por los dieciséis ventanales apuntados y trilobulados que se abren en su base, está cubierta en su totalidad por mosaicos en los que se han representado dieciséis santos y beatos relacionados con San Agustín y la Orden. La cúpula, con sus mosaicos, es sin duda el elemento artístico de mayor entidad del conjunto. La decoración fue realizada, como el resto de los que adornan el edificio, por la firma "Facchina et Cia." de París y su coste ascendió a 130.000 ptas. de 1908. En el tambor se puede leer el siguiente versículo del salmo 85: "Omnes gentes quascumque fecisti venient et adorabunt coram te, Domine, et glorificabunt nomen tuum. Quoniam magnus es tu faciens mirabilia. Tu es Deus solus". "Todos los pueblos vendrán a postrarse en tu presencia, Señor, bendecirán tu nombre. Grande eres tú, y haces maravillas, tu eres el único Dios".
NOTAS HISTÓRICAS
La Iglesia de San Manuel y San Benito, situada en la madrileña calle de Alcalá, enfrente del histórico parque del Retiro, comenzó su andadura litúrgico-pastoral el día 1 de enero de 1911. La historia de este centenario templo madrileño, sin embargo, se remonta a comienzos de siglo cuando en 1902 la Ilma. Sra. D.ª Benita Maurici, Vda. de Caviggioli, se comprometía con los Agustinos de la Provincia de Filipinas a construir una Iglesia, que serviría de panteón para su marido, ya difunto, y ella misma, y un convento cuya planta baja se dedicaría a la instrucción gratuita de obreros y a cuyo frente se encontraría una fundación que recibiría posteriormente el nombre de "Fundación Caviggioli". La primera piedra se colocó el 4 de mayo de 1903 y la donación se formalizó mediante escritura pública realizada el 18 de marzo de 1904. En los años siguientes se continuaron las obras de construcción que finalizaron en 1910. El templo fue consagrado el 31 de diciembre de ese año por el Agustino Fray Francisco Valdés, obispo de Salamanca.
Desde ese momento la comunidad agustiniana puso todo su empeño y dedicación al servicio de las actividades litúrgicas, religiosas, culturales y sociales, que se realizaban en la iglesia-convento de San Manuel y San Benito, convirtiéndose en poco tiempo en el centro espiritual de mayor prestigio del señorial barrio de Salamanca. Quince años después, el 12 de septiembre de 1926, nació en el seno de la Provincia de Filipinas la Provincia Agustiniana de España, que recibió, junto con otras casas, la de San Manuel y San Benito, convertida desde entonces en residencia del Prior Provincial.
En 1936 la Guerra Civil interrumpió la trayectoria iniciada 25 años antes. Los Agustinos fueron expulsados y cinco religiosos de la comunidad murieron asesinados, entre ellos el Prior Provincial P. Facundo Mendiguchía y su secretario el P. Francisco de Mier. La iglesia fue cerrada al culto y transformada en almacén, la sacristía y los locales anejos se destinaron a economato, y el convento se convirtió en sede del Comité Ejecutivo del Partido Comunista y residencia de milicianos afiliados al Partido.
Terminada la guerra fratricida, retornaron los Agustinos a su casa y comenzaron la rehabilitación del edificio. Poco a poco fueron reparándose los daños que había sufrido el edificio durante la contienda, pero algunos bienes como la biblioteca, la sillería coral dotada de veintisiete sitiales tallados en nogal macizo y adornados con toques de oro, los confesonarios y la mayor parte del mobiliario del templo se había perdido para siempre. También habían desaparecido los objetos destinados al culto, las vestiduras y paramentos litúrgicos y la magnífica custodia donada por la fundadora.
Durante los años posteriores se continuó la línea iniciada antes de la guerra. Las misas, ejercicios espirituales, y las funciones litúrgicas celebradas en San Manuel y San Benito, volvieron a convertir el templo en el preferido de la sociedad madrileña y de los intelectuales del momento. Agustinos como los PP. Félix García y César Vaca destacaron en esos momentos. En San Manuel y San Benito vivieron su religiosidad, antes y después de la Guerra Civil, personajes de la talla de Muñoz Seca, Carlos Arniches, Sánchez Guerra, Antonio Maura, Gregorio Marañón, Vázquez Mella, Víctor Pradera, Concha Espina, Víctor de la Serna, Ricardo León, Pedro Sainz Rodríguez, Jacinto Benavente y tantos otros que harían esta lista interminable.
En 1965, atendiendo la solicitud de la Archidiócesis de Madrid, la iglesia se convirtió en Parroquia. Desde ese momento un equipo de Agustinos ha dedicado sus esfuerzos a la atención, no sólo de los feligreses que le correspondían, sino también de los muchos madrileños que acuden a diario a proclamar y cultivar su fe, vivir la Eucaristía, o celebrar su matrimonio y otros sacramentos en el artístico templo. Al frente de ese equipo, como párrocos, han figurado los siguientes religiosos: P. Leovigildo Tabernero (1965), P. Remigio Paramio (1966-1970), P. Gonzalo Gómez-Zamalloa (1970-1971), P. Mariano Martín (1971-1979), P. Rafael del Olmo (1979-1983), P. Rafael de la Torre (1983-1995), P. Matías Pérez (1995-1999), P. Ángel Camino (1999-2006), P. Ignacio Alonso (2006-2012), y desde el año 2012 P. Agustín Otazo Redondo.

From discoverchester.co.uk/St.John's.html
"The ancient Church of John's was founded by the Saxon King Aethelred of Mercia in AD 689. It was later enlarged in AD 907 by Aethelreda, the daughter of King Alfred the Great and her husband Aethelred. At that time Foregate Street will have been a mere track through the forest, outside the ancient city walls.
According to legend: "King Ethelred, minding to build a church, was told that where he should see a white hind, there he should build a church, which hind he saw in the place that S. John's now standeth".
Another legend says King Edgar spent time at St. John's in AD 973 to receive homage of the sub-kings of England Scotland and Wales. Legend has it that King Edgar the Peaceful was crowned in Bath, in 972, and was then rowed up the river Dee by eight vassal Kings from North-western Britain, as a token of their submission, from Chester Castle to the church of St. John's where he took oaths of obedience."

The Common Starling (Sturnus vulgaris), also known as the European Starling or just Starling, is a passerine bird in the family Sturnidae.
This species of starling is native to most of temperate Europe and western Asia. It is resident in southern and western Europe and southwestern Asia, while northeastern populations migrate south and west in winter to these regions, and also further south to areas where it does not breed in Iberia and north Africa. It has also been introduced to Australia, Argentina, New Zealand, North America, and South Africa.
There are several subspecies of the European Starling, which vary in the iridescence of adult plumage. With gradual variation over geographic range and extensive intergradation, the subspecies are said to be clinal. Acceptance of different subspecies varies between different authorities. (wikipedia)
Taken in Howth, Co. Dublin. A stunning bird in winter plumage, much maligned!

innisfreegarden.org/garden.html
We arrived at Innisfree as soon as it opened at 10AM one mid-August morning when the entire Northeastern US was in the middle of a record heatwave. Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to make a quick 1.5 mile circle on the path around the deep glacial lake at the heart of this 150 acre garden before we wilted and had to return to our air conditioned car. The harsh mid-day light made photography challenging, as you can see. We learned that Innisfree, said by some to be one of the world's Ten Great Gardens, opens at sunrise on three occasions each year, and we are already planning another trip to the Hudson River Valley in the future when we hope we can see and photograph this amazing place under better conditions.
"Like the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China, Innisfree helps us to define what we mean by ‘civilization’. It’s one of the few places in this world that lived up to — nay, exceeded — my expectations."
David Wheeler, Editor, Hortus (2013)
"In the late 1920s, Walter Beck and his wife, avid gardener and heiress Marion Burt Beck, began work on Innisfree, their country residence in Millbrook, New York. Walter Beck’s fascination with Asian art influenced his painting, the collecting he and his wife pursued, and their ideas on garden design. In the 1930s, Beck discovered the work of 8th-century Chinese poet, painter and garden maker Wang Wei. Studying scroll paintings of his famed garden, the Wangchuan Villa, Beck observed that Wang created carefully defined, inwardly focused gardens and garden vignettes within a larger, naturalistic landscape. Wang’s place-making technique — christened “cup gardens,” by Beck — influenced centuries of Chinese and Japanese garden design. It is also the principal design motif in the Innisfree landscape. Like his Chinese predecessor, Beck created three-dimensional pictures in the garden, incorporating both rocks from the site and horticultural advice from his wife. Unlike Wang Wei, or perhaps more familiar figures like Lawrence Johnston, who used his cup-like rooms at Hidcote in England to draw one through a sequence of events and create an overall sense of place, Beck focused more on individual compositions. Relating these to each other and to the landscape as a whole was the genius of Lester Collins."
The genius of this place lies not so much in the ideas which the designers formulated for the cup gardens, many of which are disarmingly simple, but in the way they have been maintained over the years. Essentially, everything is allowed to settle into the prevailing spirit of the place; if it does not, it is removed. It is this sensitivity, care and attention to the qualities of landscape, natural and made, that make Innisfree such a memorable success.
Tim Richardson, Great Gardens of America (2000)
Western gardens are usually designed to embrace a view of the whole. Little is hidden. The garden, like a stage set, is there in its entirety, its overall design revealed in a glance. The traditional Chinese garden is usually designed so that a view of the whole is impossible. [It] requires a stroll over serpentine, seemingly aimless arteries. The observer walks into a series of episodes, like Alice through the looking glass."
Lester Collins, Innisfree: An American Garden (1994)

My mother is a doll maker - she makes character dolls and sometimes shows them in expositons. She never sells them, though.
This doll is her mother - my grandmother. She made it after my grandmother died. I recognized my grandmother the moment I saw the doll.
We called her Oma Vaassen: Oma means "grandmother" and Vaassen was the place where she lived, and where my mother grew up. Vaasssen is about 10 km from where we lived, and Oma Vaassen came visiting us on her bike until she was over 80 years old.
She got married when she was about 22 years old - she had to, because she was pregnant. Probably she never wanted to have children, but she had four anyway. Not that she did not love them - actually, it was almost impossible for her to let them go when they grew up. My mother had to rebel when she wanted to marry my dad - she was 24 at the time but Oma Vaassen wouldn't let her go. They did not see each other for 10 years but then Oma visited us and apologized. From that day on, I had a new grandmother. And quite a special one, too.
Her character was quite dominant. She was never shy to give her opinion and she preferably did it in a such a loud voice that the whole village could hear it. She was a bit neurotic, and easily panicked - she carried a knife around when she was 70 because she feared rapists. She would shout out in the middle of a store that she always kept her money hidden between her tits. And in our family, 'my bag! my bag! my bag!' became a fixed expression meaning 'I'm looking for something and I can't find it but I need it now my god where is it!' referring to the way Oma Vaassen panicked when she couldn't find her bag.
She had a very large social network - she basically knew everybody, and kept telling all gossip about everybody to everybody, making a lot of things up along the way. Persons who scratched their knees bled to death in her version of the story. This did not necessarily make her very popular with everybody, but she made sure that there always was a warm and lively atmosphere whenever she was around.
Her husband, my grandfather, was a very silent and introverted man, who was either busy gardening or turning the knobs on his antique radio. He hardly ever spoke a word, but nobody noticed as long as Oma Vaassen was around.
Actually, the whole marriage was a disaster. When I was little they did not say even one word to each other - they kept up complete silence for over 20 years. Yet, she came home to cook for him, every single day.
When they grew older, the ice thawed somewhat - they slept in separate rooms but got back on speaking terms and actually held a large celebration at their 50th marriage anniversary.
She led a very active life. Of course, raising a family in the 1940s was not easy. My mother still remembers her smashing plates against the walls in anger when she discovered that she expected her fourth child - in 1945, when due to German occupation there was almost nothing left to eat. It turned out relatively well because my mom's younger sister was born when the war was over - but the family still lived in extreme poverty.
When her children had left home, she became politically and socially active - she had always supported Labor Party (which was the natural thing for a working class family) but in the 1970s she became a feminist with communist sympathies. Quite impressive for a simple person with almost no education. She took a job in a local factory and became active for a local political party that wanted more facilities for the population of Vaassen (instead of having everything in Epe, the principal town of the municipality). I admire her initiatives but I'm not sure how much good she did to the party...
I always loved visiting her. Her house was something quite out of the ordinary. The whole social life was centered around the little kitchen with grandmother making coffee and serving cookies and everybody (she always had visitors, somehow) sitting around the same table (grandfather in his own seat by the radio, not communicating much). There was a living room but over the years that room filled up with all the stuff Oma Vaassen picked up along the way - after years of war and poverty, she could not stand the idea of people throwing stuff away. She collected it all. There were hundreds of dolls that missed a leg. Jigsaw puzzles that missed pieces. And in the former children's bedroom enough clothes for a medium sized town. And lots of plants standing in between all the junk - and they were taken care of with the utmost love and care.
And, she was the best grandmother a kid could have. She was always kind and very fond of all of us. She had almost too much love for everything alive (I didn't even speak about the goat they kept in the house when my mom was little...) It was impossible not to love Aleida Wilhelmina Kok - or Lei, for friends. And the doll looks exactly like her.
Mijn moeder is poppenmaakster – ze maakt karakterpoppen en stelt ze ook tentoon. Maar ze verkoopt ze nooit.
Deze pop is haar moeder – mijn oma. Ze maakte hem toen mijn oma al dood was. Ik herkende mijn oma erin zodra ik de pop zag.
We noemden haar Oma Vaassen, naar de plaats waar ze woonde, en waar mijn moeder ook was opgegroeid. Vaassen is zo’n 10 km van de plek waar wij woonden, en Oma Vaassen kwam ons op de fiets bezoeken tot ze al over de 80 was.
Ze trouwde toen ze zo’n 22 jaar oud was – ze moest trouwen, want ze was zwanger. Eigenlijk wilde ze helemaal geen kinderen, maar ze kreeg er wel vier. Niet dat ze niet van ze hield – integendeel, ze had de grootste moeite om ze los te laten toen ze groot werden. Mijn moeder moest in verzet komen toen ze met mijn vader wilde trouwen. 24 was ze toen, maar Oma Vaassen liet haar niet gaan. Ze hebben elkaar zo’n tien jaar niet gezien, maar toen zocht Oma Vaassen ons op en bood haar verontschuldigingen aan. Vanaf die dag had ik er een oma bij. En nog een hele bijzondere ook.
Ze was nogal dominant van karakter. Ze stak haar mening niet onder stoelen of banken en ze deed dat bij voorkeur zo hard dat het hele dorp kon meeluisteren. Ze was enigszins neurotisch en snel in paniek – op haar 70ste had ze nog een mes bij zich omdat er overal verkrachters zitten. En midden in de supermarkt verkondigde ze luidkeels dat ze haar geld altijd verstopte “tuss’n de titt’n .” Bij ons thuis werd “Me tasje me tasje me tasje!” een gevleugelde uitspraak als je koortsachtig ergens naar liep te zoeken, vanwege Oma Vaassen die een keer in paniek raakte toen ze haar tasje niet kon vinden.
Ze had een uitgebreid sociaal netwerk – ze kende iedereen, en vertelde alle roddels over iedereen tegen iedereen, waarbij ze de helft er ter plekke bij verzon. Mensen met een schrammetje lagen in haar versie al snel dood te bloeden. Dit maakte haar niet bij iedereen even populair, maar het zorgde er wel voor dat het altijd gezellig en levendig was als zij er was.
Haar man, mijn opa, was een erg stille en teruggetrokken man, die of aan het tuinieren was, of aan z’n radio gekluisterd zat, aan de knoppen draaiend. Meestal sprak hij geen woord, maar dat merkte niemand, zolang Oma Vaassen in de buurt was.
Hun huwelijk was in feite één grote ramp. Toen ik klein was, spraken ze geen woord meer met elkaar – meer dan 20 jaar lang hebben ze dat zwijgen volgehouden. Toch kwam ze altijd iedere dag weer thuis om voor hem te koken.
Toen ze ouder werden, dooide het ijs een beetje. Ze bleven apart slapen maar praatten weer met elkaar, en gaven zelfs een groot 60-jarig huwelijksfeest.
Ze was heel actief. Het was natuurlijk niet makkelijk om in de jaren ’40 een gezin groot te brengen. Mijn moeder herinnert zich nog hoe haar moeder al het servies in woede tegen de muur smeet toen ze ontdekte dat ze zwanger was van haar vierde kind – in 1945, toen er bijna niks meer te eten was. Het pakte gelukkig relatief goed uit, omdat mijn moeders jongere zus geboren is toen de oorlog al voorbij was – maar ze leefden nog wel in grote armoede.
Toen de kinderen de deur uit waren, werd ze ook actief op politiek en sociaal terrein – ze had natuurlijk altijd PvdA gestemd (de logische keus voor een arbeidersgezin) maar in je jaren ’70 werd ze feministisch en kreeg ze communistische sympathieën. Niet niks voor een eenvoudige vrouw met alleen lagere school. Ze nam een baan in een fabriek en werd actief voor de Nieuwe Lijn, een locale partij die streed voor meer voorzieningen in Vaassen (en niet alleen voor de gemeentehoofdplaats Epe). Ik bewonder haar initiatief maar vraag me wel eens af hoeveel goed ze die partij nou echt gedaan heeft…
Het was altijd fijn om bij haar op bezoek te gaan. Haar huis was heel bijzonder. Het hele sociale leven vond plaats in de kleine keuken, waar Oma Vaassen koffie zette en koekjes uitdeelde aan alle mensen die rond de keukentafel zaten (en bezoek was er eigenlijk altijd wel). Opa zat in z’n eigen stoel bij de radio en zei niet veel. Een woonkamer was er ook wel, maar die raakte in de loop der jaren helemaal verstopt met alle dingen die Oma Vaassen langs de weg vond – na jaren van oorlog en armoede kon ze het niet aanzien dat mensen dingen weggooiden, dus ze naam het dan maar mee. Ze verzamelde alles. Er waren honderden poppen met één been. Niet complete legpuzzels. En in de vroegere kinderslaapkamer genoeg kleren voor een heel dorp. En tussen alle zooi stonden overeral planten, die met de grootste liefde verzorgd werden.
Ze was de beste oma die een kind kan hebben. Ze was altijd aardige en ze was dol op ons allemaal. Ze had welhaast te eel liefde voor alles wat leefde (ik heb het nog niet eens gehad over de geit die ze in huis hielden toen m’n moeder klein was…) Het was onmogelijk om niet te houden van Aleida Wilhelmina Kok – of Lei, voor vrienden. En de pop lijkt precies op haar.

On Saturday morning I was guide for a history tour of Handsworth Park - at first called Victoria Park, like many others at the time, in honour of the Queen. The chilly weather and the snow, still falling now and then, did not deter over 15 people turning up. I've been doing tours of Handsworth Park for years. This one was included in a more ambitious enterprise dreamed by my friend Aftab Rahman of Legacy West Midlands. Handsworth Park is one of ten other places with historical resonance included in the East Handsworth and Lozells Heritage Trail
Legacy WM won a Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) grant to develop a heritage trail for Lozells and East Handsworth training 15 volunteers in a greater appreciation and understanding of local history so they can give guided tours. Legacy WM is working with South and City College to develop an accredited course, being run at St Mary's Convent, with the aim of launching the trail on the 25th May 2013. Once trained the volunteers will give guided tours to the community, people across the city and visitors to Birmingham, tours that will include:
Soho House
St Mary's Convent - Hunters Road
Hamstead Road - 9 restored Georgian houses built around 1836 - with 9 amazing gardens
Asian Resource Centre - Old Toll House
James Watt Gate House - West Drive
St Mary's Church - where lie the remains of James Watt, Matthew Boulton and William Murdoch
Handsworth Park and bandstand
Thornhill Road Police Station – formerly Staffordshire Court
Handsworth Library - Soho Road
Handsworth College - once Handsworth Council House, Soho Road
This was how journalist Tom Rowley described the tour in The Telegraph in February 2013....
[QUOTE] Birmingham's new tourist trail - but will coach parties want to visit East Handsworth?
Do tourists really want a guided tour of the once riot-scarred streets of Birmingham?
Walking tours of Oxford begin by the gates of Trinity College. In Bath, the eager participants gather at the Pump Rooms, and in Edinburgh the route starts at the foot of The Mound, near the Royal Mile. But our rendezvous today is the Asian Resource Centre.
I’m the first visitor to sample Britain’s newest – and most controversial – walking tour, and my eager guide, dressed in hardy boots and a baggy cagoule, is Aftab Rahman. Rather than lingering by a Bridge of Sighs, though, the two-hour route will see us walk through two of the country’s most deprived and notorious neighbourhoods – Lozells and East Handsworth – in search of their industrial heritage.
The wards, two miles from Birmingham city centre, are not an obvious tourist draw. One in four of the population is unemployed and a recent police newsletter warns of anti-social behaviour, prostitution and drugs. More than four-fifths of locals are from ethnic minorities. It was here that racial and economic tension sparked the riots in 1985, when two brothers burnt to death in the Post Office they ran and 45 shops were looted. In 2005, further rioting claimed another two lives and injured a police officer.
It is perhaps surprising, then, that the Heritage Lottery Fund has given £38,000 to launch the tour. When it begins in May, volunteers in Victorian garb will guide visitors around the area for free each Saturday.
The local MP, Khalid Mahmood, thinks it is a huge waste of money. “We’re talking about the middle of Birmingham,” he sighs. “I don’t think it is picturesque. We haven’t got the sort of sites they have in York, for example. Of course we have some history, but we’re not in that league. We’ve got to understand where we are. We’ve got better things to spend that money on than walking a group of Japanese tourists around.”
Lottery funding should go towards regenerating the area or helping residents find jobs, he argues. “I think they should provide pamphlets for people to explore the area themselves. Then visitors could interact with local businesses and put some money back into the community.”
Undeterred, we set off in driving snow, and Aftab dismisses Mr Mahmood’s concerns. “The MP should be promoting his own area, not putting it down,” he tells me, as we pass the “Eat Well” Caribbean vegetarian takeaway on Hamstead Road.
Aftab, 42, emigrated from Bangladesh to Lozells with his family when he was six. He admits that the area has generated a bad press over the years. “I came here in 1976 and it wasn’t always rosy,” he recalls. “There was a lot of violent racism in the early days and the riots when I was 15 were devastating. Shops were burnt down, there were petrol bombs and stand-offs with the police.”
Walking tours in unlikely areas are a recent phenomenon and not confined to the West Midlands. Visitors to Belfast will soon be offered a walkabout that includes a dozen sites associated with the worst atrocities of the Troubles. Last year, an enterprising bus company launched a £15 tour of the M25. The chance to spend four hours in a jam seems unlikely to become a major draw. Aftab, on the other hand, is determined that his tour will work. “Ultimately, I want people from London and across the world to come,” he insists. “We have enough to showcase here for the world to see.”
It is impossible not to be cheered by Aftab’s enthusiasm. Whether he is pointing out Soho House, a grand Georgian home where the industrialist Matthew Boulton lived in the 1700s, or “one of only six bandstands in the West Midlands” in the park, he is proud to call himself a local.
Aftab, a former youth worker with Worcester city council, is an energetic supporter of the community and has set up several charities to help young people into work. He will run the walking tour in his role as director of Legacy West Midlands, an organisation he set up to promote the area’s history.
But some of Aftab’s showpieces are, frankly, of limited appeal. The “first Halal slaughterhouse in the West Midlands”, where customers used to be able to select a chicken to be killed, is, perhaps, of minor cultural interest. Similarly, a row of nine Georgian houses, sympathetically restored, have little to commend them beyond charming sash windows.
But the route also takes us into St Mary’s convent on Hunters Road. Built in 1841, it is the work of Augustus Pugin, more famous for much of the interior design of the House of Commons. Two of the nuns greet Aftab warmly and show us Flemish carvings and a grandfather clock by Pugin.
Our final stop is St Mary’s church, back on Hamstead Road. The Norman tower is magnificent but Aftab heads straight to a marble mausoleum where James Watt, the Scottish engineer and inventor whose improvements to the steam engine were key to the Industrial Revolution, is interred.
“This is what my trail is all about,” he says. “We have these hidden gems here that people don’t know about. It is beautiful and we need to make a song and dance about it. People think of Lozells and East Handsworth as a riot hotspot with gang affiliation. But it is not like that. Give this area another 10 years and it will be one of the most desirable places to live. What was Brixton like 10 years ago? The community is growing slowly and it is just a matter of time. Give it a chance.”
Our tour may be over, but Aftab will never tire of walking around his neighbourhood – even if coachloads of tourists fail to turn off the M40 at Junction 16. [END QUOTE]

To quote Khalid Mahmoud, our MP, again...“We’re talking about the middle of Birmingham. I don’t think it is picturesque. We haven’t got the sort of sites they have in York, for example. Of course we have some history, but we’re not in that league. We’ve got to understand where we are. We’ve got better things to spend that money on than walking a group of Japanese tourists around.”
Our MP's words angered Linda, my wife
"He's rubbishing his own constituency'
I enjoy quotes like this though. They are a challenge.
Handsworth, modern Handsworth where we've lived since 1979, has a reputation I rather enjoy, not only because it discourages visits by the kind of people who made comments like this below Rowley's carping piece...
(QUOTE) "....as you can work out for yourself, the area is a dump. you could work out your own guided tour out with a book on birmingham architecture. i wouldn't recommend someone white do it, as your safety could not be guaranteed. it still has a black presence so mugging is a distinct possibility, and it is now overwhelmingly muslim, so not to be recommended for non muslim women, especially white women, as some of these people regard non muslim women as easy meat (especially if you happen to be very young, white, and from a dysfunctial background). thinking about it, as a brummy i have to say it would be better to take a trip out to worcestershire or gloucestershire and see what england use to/should look like. birmingham is rapidly looking more like a 3rd world country, and i can't see why anyone wishing to sight-see england would want to look at that. sorry to disappoint."(END QUOTE)
...but much more important because the history that resides in this area is entirely formidable. I've been taking people around Handsworth Park, including my entranced Japanese students, for decades, telling them how "in this place the modern world was invented"
For years I've lived amid the echoes of this astounding source. Only in the last twenty years or so have I begun to grasp the causes and consequences strewn around me - this place where the industrial revolution was seeded.
Ironically there is part of me that cherishes the concealment that hides this significance from so many people, including our MP who talks unknowingly of "understanding where we are". It may seem a paradox but I don't want this area to become a museum replete with commodified history. I value it too much for its present life including its risks and the things that anger me as well as those things in which I rejoice.
I'm protective, even possessive, cherishing Handsworth the way I might cherish a chest of private family treasures that, as an old man, I might ease open with false reluctance in response to the pleas of curious grandchildren, encouraging their small eager fingers to touch and hold; their ears to listen, uncritically, to my crafted accounts of amazing things; their innocent eyes to gaze untroubled, wondering and happy at what one day they will be taught as 'history'.
On the matter of our MP's opinion that £35K could be better spent on other things. What comes at once to mind is education, health and crime prevention. He cues an important argument about the allocation of scarce resources - in this case the public money granted for the development by Aftab and people like myself of a Heritage Trail in our area. It is absolutely fair that those of us using the £35,000 in question should be able to show how its investment in a local Heritage Trail is as good a way as any more direct investment in promoting education, sport or health and reducing crime. A decade ago we made that case in campaigning for the investment of Heritage Lottery money in the restoration of Handsworth Park and other urban green spaces.
This was my contribution to that debate:

I am confident that the same case can be made for the East Handsworth and Lozells Heritage Trail

Hirokawa Maru (Bonegi 1)
IJN
Cargo
6,872 Tons
Ship History
Built by Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha at Kobe. Laid down April 6, 1939 as a 6,872-ton cargo ship. Launched May 10, 1940 as Hirokawa Maru. Completed October 12, 1940 and delivered to Kawasaki Kisen, K. K. Line for use on the K line cargo service.
Wartime History
On February 8, 1941 requisitioned by the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA) as No. 846 and converted into a Boku Kikansen (anti-aircraft) armed transport with six Type 88 75mm anti-aircraft guns and four Type 98 20mm cannons. On November 6, 1941 departs Moji bound for Wusong off Shanghai. On November 28, 1941 arrives Samah on Hainan Island.
PARTIAL HISTORY
On December 4, 1941 at 6:00am departs Samah as part of a convoy transporting the Japanese Army 25th Army to the Gulf of Thailand escorted by light cruisers, destroyers, minesweepers and subchaser. Hirokawa Maru, Sagami Maru, Kinka Maru, Tozan Maru escorted by destroyers Shinonome and Shirakumo are detached as part of the as part of the Pattani invasion force. On December 7, 1941 arrives off Pattani in Saim (Thailand) and successfully lands the Ando Detachment.
PARTIAL HISTORY
Part of a convoy of eleven transports: Arizona Maru, Kumagawa Maru, Sado Maru, Nagara Maru, Nako Maru, Canberra Maru, Brisbane Maru, Kinugawa Maru, Hirokawa Maru, Yamaura Maru, and Yamatsuki Maru escorted by twelve destroyers.
On November 13, 1942 departed Shortland and steamed down "The Slot" bound for Guadalcanal. Although scheduled to arrive during the night of November 13, 1942, the convoy was recalled to Shortland, due to the First Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.
During the afternoon of November 13, 1942 the convoy again departed Shortland again bound for Guadalcanal. Spotted by American aircraft, air attacks began hitting the convoy during the morning of November 14, and overwhelmed the escorting Japanese aircraft and sank six transports and forced one to turn back damaged, and later sank.
The remaining four transports and four destroyers continued to Guadalcanal. After nightfall, they stopped to the west of Guadalcanal, awaiting the conclusion of the Second Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.
Sinking History
On November 15, 1942 at 4:00am, the remaining four transports Kinugawa Maru, Hirokawa Maru, Yamaura Maru, and Yamatsuki Maru beached themselves on western Guadalcanal. Kinugawa Maru beached the furthest to the east at Bonegi.
Beginning at 5:55am, American aircraft from Henderson Field and elsewhere plus field artillery bombarded the ships. Later, destroyer USS Meade approached and opened fire for an hour with 5" shells, leaving them "blazing with many internal explosions."
These attacks set all four transports afire and destroyed most equipment not unloaded before dawn. Most of their ammunition and food supplies were lost. Approximately 2,000 troops with 260 cases of ammunition and 1,500 bags of rice made ashore.
Shipwreck
Hirokawa Maru was sunk off Bonegi to the east of Kinugawa Maru. Locally known as "Bonegi 1", "Bonegi No. 1" or "Bonegi One". The shipwreck rests with her mangled bow in shallow water with her amidships section is fairly intact. Her stern at 180' / 55m is covered with gun cartridges and deteriorated.
Well broken up by enemy bombing, she is now covered in soft and hard coral growth. A deck gun is still recognizable. Penetration of this wreck is not advised because deterioration leaves the wreckage unstable.

DIE SAGE
Im innersten Winkel des oberen Kainachtales, zu Füßen der Roßbachalpe, liegt auf einer 938 Meter hohen Felskuppe die Ruine der alten Burg Hanstein, auch Hauenstein genannt, die der Landesfürst im 13. Jahrhundert dem Edelgeschlecht der Hanauer verliehen hatte. Die Burg war so angelegt, daß sie die wichtige Straße über den Gleinalmsattel ins obere Murtal sperren konnte. Den Hanauern folgten die Laun, dann war der unglückliche Greißenegger Inhaber; 1483 erwarb das Stift Lambrecht die Feste, dann die Stadt Judenburg und zuletzt wurde sie mit der Herrschaft Piber vereinigt. — Die Ringmauer ist noch erhalten, und durch drei Tore kommt man in den innersten Hof, wo an höchster Stelle das dreistöckige Turmhaus (Wohnturm) steht. Schon bald nach 1500 wird die Burg als „öde'', d. h. unbewohnbar, geschildert.
Eine Sage behauptet, daß die Burg Hanstein mit der Burg Klingenstein im Sallatal durch einen geheimen unterirdischen Gang verbunden gewesen sei, was aber wegen der allzu großen Entfernung (13 km Luftlinie!) ganz unmöglich ist.
*
Ein Bauerndirndl ließ eines Tages ihre Schafe vor der Ruine grasen. Plötzlich kam eine altertümlich gekleidete Frau aus dem Burgtor heraus und hatte Nüsse in der Schürze, die sie dem Mädchen schenken wollte mit den Worten: „Greif zu, sie gehören dir!'' Das Mädchen aber fürchtete sich, nahm die Gabe nicht an und versteckte sich. Da jammerte die Frau laut: „Törichtes Kind, du hättest mich erlösen können und wärst überdies reich geworden, denn die Nüsse hätten sich in Gold verwandelt. Nun muß ich wieder viele hundert Jahre warten, bis mich ein tapferes Mädchen erlösen wird.'' — Mit diesen Worten verschwand die Gestalt heftig weinend im alten Gemäuer.
Am Oswaldbach, eine gute Gehstunde vom Dorf Kainach entfernt, steht die Hankersäge. Die Leute dort nennen das Bächlein auch „Silberwasserl". Im kristallklaren Wasser soll ein silberglänzendes Fischlein herumschwimmen, das in seinem Körper ein Silberringlein stecken hat. Wer dieses Ringfischlein fängt, kann sich den Schatz in der Ruine Hauenstein holen.

architecture.arqhys.com/architects/antoniobonet-biography...
ANTONIO BONET. In 1942, Bonet participates in the constitution of the Organization of the Integral House in the Argentine Republic. The idea of the formation of its work ties it with the ideas suggested by Him Corbusier throughout the process of preparation of the Plan of Buenos Aires. "the routine servitude of conception submissive the outsider does not exist any worthy of consideration argument seriously nor even in that some Argentineans live" So that the initial note of a universal modulation does not take place in our country, whose hope appears in the immediate perspective of the world: on the area in catastrophe of the cities martyred by the war, the genius of the man already begins to project the new forms of the human coexistence. On the contrary, the essential circumstance of our historical youth and the one of our adventurous peace, locate to us in the moral obligation to create new forms of life anticipating us to whatever of project and of dream it even subsists in a world of towns in flames and ruins. This thought of Bonet, is taken from the N° Notebook 1 of OVRA, titled Study of the Contemporary Problems for the organization of the integral house in the Argentine Republic. Without a doubt, the text gathers part of the optimism of the Austral Group. But while this one was directed to the architects and its problems, in the OVRA manifesto the horizon is ampler, next to certain discovered nonfree of messianism of the American, coincident with other similar initiatives in other places of the continent.
Reflections of Antonio Bonet on the architecture: "the architectonic elements that will form the new city will be formed by a series, numerous, of structures little systematized. Those structures will be able to arrive to the maximum from their aesthetic, technical perfection and economic, since besides to be placed in free lands, its study must be based on the progressive improvement of such types, so as it has become in the great architectures of the past. Within those structures, that will be the expression of the effort of the social man, to obtain the order and the harmony of its time, never will be obtained to a freedom reached after the development of the life of the man like individual, and the one of its institutions. It is well certain that we are even far from that stage, But does not fit doubt that once demonstrated that the modern buildings can be developed in simple structures, more and more seemed to each other, it will make the importance powerful of this system. Those buildings will be used and the equipped for but diverse uses, without aging with it, although they will have to work at a time whose social programs, industrial, etc., are in permanent evolution. I am going to finish with the confession of my conviction of which to group the programs for the unification of the structures, is something enormously difficult, but some is no doubt that it is the way that will take us forms to the true architectonic of our time. in that the diverse social programs will be developed freely, cultural hygienic, etc., that must form the structure of the new society.

Cómo orar a Dios | Mi enfermedad se recuperó milagrosamente mientras oraba a Dios y confiando en Él
Soy cristiana y tengo setenta años. Una vez me quedé paralítica debido a una enfermedad y poco faltó para sufrir muerte cerebral. Durante ese período, renuncié a cualquier esperanza de sobrevivir, pero en un momento crítico, las palabras de Dios me dieron fe y me permitieron recuperar milagrosamente mi vida. Si Dios no me hubiera salvado, yo habría dejado este mundo hace mucho tiempo.
El 19 de abril de 2017, después de levantarme de la cama, tuve un terrible dolor de cabeza. De repente, tropecé y me caí sobre la cama. No podía mover la mitad de mi cuerpo, y gradualmente perdí el conocimiento.
Más tarde, mis familiares me llevaron a la sala de emergencias del hospital, donde me hicieron una tomografía computarizada. El médico dijo que la hemorragia en mi tronco cerebral fue causada por una ruptura de una pared arterial, y que si no detenían el sangrado, mi vida estaría en peligro. Mi hija sollozó al escuchar eso, pues estaba desconsolada. El médico no se arriesgó a aplazar el tratamiento y les dijo a las enfermeras que me llevaran a la unidad de reanimación de emergencia.
Allí, el médico les dijo a las enfermeras: “vigilen a la anciana, porque está a punto de perder la capacidad de respirar. Quítenle los pendientes, los anillos y el collar, y entréguenlos a su familia para que puedan prepararse mentalmente y comenzar con los preparativos para el fallecimiento”. Aunque no podía abrir mis ojos ni moverme en absoluto, yo estaba totalmente consciente. Cuando escuché que estaba a punto de morir, sentí miedo y tristeza. Aunque sabía que todas las personas mueren, no esperaba hacerlo de una manera tan rápida y repentina. No había tenido tiempo de despedirme de mis seres queridos, todavía no había contemplado este mundo por última vez y, a pesar de creer en Dios, no había adquirido la verdad ni la comprensión de Dios... En ese momento, sentí que mi vida era demasiado corta. La idea de tener que abandonar este mundo de una manera tan repentina, con tantas cosas que quedaban por hacer, me dejó el corazón cargado de pena y arrepentimiento.

Praise and Worship the Return of God | " Gospel Choir 19th Performance "
Under a starry, quiet and peaceful night sky, a group of Christians earnestly awaiting the return of the Savior sing and dance to cheerful music. When they hear the joyful news "God has returned" and "God has uttered new words", they are surprised and excited. They think: "God has returned? He has already appeared?" With curiosity and uncertainty, one after another, they step into the journey of seeking God's new words. In their arduous seeking, some people are questioning while others simply accept it. Some people look on without comment, while others make suggestions and search for answers in the Bible—they look but in the end it is fruitless…. Just when they become discouraged, a witness brings them a copy of the Age of Kingdom Bible, and they are deeply attracted to the words in the book. What kind of book is this really? Have they actually found the new words that God has uttered in that book? Have they welcomed the appearance of God?
Every Nation Worships the Practical God
1. This time, God comes to do work not in a spiritual body but in a very ordinary one. Not only is it the body of God’s second incarnation, but also the body in which God returns. It is a very ordinary flesh. In Him, you cannot see anything that is different from others, but you can receive from Him the truths you have never heard before, receive from Him the truths you have never heard before. This insignificant flesh is the embodiment of all the words of truth from God, that which undertakes God’s work in the last days, and an expression of the whole of God’s disposition for man to come to know. Did you not desire greatly to see the God in heaven? Did you not desire greatly to understand the God in heaven? Did you not desire greatly to see the destination of mankind? He will tell you all these secrets that no one can ever tell you, and He will even tell you of the truths that you do not understand. He is your gate into the kingdom, and your guide into the new age.
2. Such an ordinary flesh holds many unfathomable mysteries. His deeds may be inscrutable to you, but the goal of all the work He does is sufficient for you to see that He is not a simple flesh as man believes. For He represents the will of God as well as the care shown by God toward mankind in the last days. For He represents the will of God as well as the care shown by God toward mankind in the last days. Though you cannot hear the words He speaks that seem to shake the heavens and earth or see His eyes like blazing flames, and though you cannot feel the discipline of His iron rod, you can hear from His words the fury of God and know that God shows compassion for mankind; you can see the righteous disposition of God and His wisdom, and moreover, realize the concern and care that God has for all mankind.
3. The work of God in the last days is to allow man to see the God in heaven live among men on earth, and to enable man to come to know, obey, revere, and love God. This is why He has returned to flesh for a second time. Though what man sees this day is a God that is the same as man, a God with a nose and two eyes, and an unremarkable God, in the end God will show you that without the existence of this man, the heaven and earth will undergo a tremendous change; without the existence of this man, the heaven will grow dim, the earth will become chaos, and all mankind will live in famine and plagues. He will show you that without the salvation of God incarnate in the last days, then God would have long ago destroyed all mankind in hell; without the existence of this flesh, then you would forever be chief of sinners and corpses evermore.
4. You should know that without the existence of this flesh, all mankind would face an inevitable calamity and find it difficult to escape God’s more severe punishment of mankind in the last days. Without the birth of this ordinary flesh, you would all be in a state where neither life nor death will come no matter how you seek it; without the existence of this flesh, then this day you would not be able to receive the truth and come before the throne of God. Rather, you would be punished by God because of your grievous sins. Rather, you would be punished by God because of your grievous sins. Do you know? If not for the return of God to the flesh, none would have a chance at salvation; and if not for the coming of this flesh, God would have long ago ended the age of old. As such, can you still reject the second incarnation of God? Since you can so greatly profit from this ordinary man, then why would you not accept Him readily?
5. In the end every nation shall worship this ordinary man, as well as give thanks to and obey this insignificant man. Because it is He who has brought the truth, the life, and the way to save all mankind, ease the conflict between God and man, bring God and man closer together, and communicate thoughts between God and man. It is also He who has brought even greater glory to God. Is not an ordinary man such as this worthy of your trust and adoration? Is such an ordinary flesh not fit to be called Christ? Can such an ordinary man not be the expression of God among men? Is not such a man who helps mankind be spared disaster worthy of your love and for you to hold? Is not such a man worthy of your love and for you to hold?
from “Do You Know? God Has Done a Great Thing Among Men” in The Word Appears in the Flesh

There are two parts
in me
One of them
is who I am
it is what makes me vibrate
it is the part that makes me create
it is what I am here to do
it is the part that knows Joy
it is the part that knows Light
it is the part that loves
it is the part that is open
it is the part that makes me live
The other one
is what I fear
it is the part that refuses all risk
it is what makes me hide from myself
it is the part that wants everything to remain as I know it
it is the part that compares
it is the part that is threatened
it is that wants to be told nice things
it is the part that wants to be safe
it is the part that knows Time
it is the part that is closed
it is the part that just wants to survive
Call them
however
you want
The second one
that dark and fearful part of myself
is very eloquent
and loud
it knows words
it knows thoughts
it knows how to reason
it knows how to argument
and
it never stops talking
The first one
the one that sees light
knows no words
no thoughts
no beliefs
no fleeting emotions
it knows presence
it knows eternity
and it is almost silent
The second one
that ever worrying part of myself
I learned it
at a time
I thought I would suffer
and maybe even disappear
if I didn't protect myself
from everything
around me
that part knows how to fight
The first one
I didn't learn
it was there
all the time
in me
it always was
it simply is
and
always will be
Fighting doesn't mean anything to it
nothing means anything to it
really
and even though
it is almost silent
even though is has no words
and no thoughts to form in my mind to defend itself ...
even though
the scared one is loud and restless and talking and thinking and reacting and getting scared and speeding up all the time ...
even though I am reminded by my fears that I never have enough time ...
that I am oh-so-very tired and I should go to sleep instead ...
even though ...
... I can still hear it
slowing down
and turning time itself against the fear
turning the silence
against the words and the thoughts
by letting go
of my own noise
and let it recede
for a moment
... I can still hear it
showing me who I am
showing me why I am here
what I am here to do
without any explanation
without any justification
just being there
... I can still hear it
showing me Beauty
...
And the noise starts again
the rushing traffic of pulsating thoughts invades again the place that was quiet
attracting my attention again and again
on everything that is scary
everything that could be dangerous
everything that I should regret
everything that I should worry about
trying to confuse me
trying to exhaust me
It seems unending
it seems that I'll never get rid of it
new scary thoughts will follow
the current scary thoughts
who followed
the previous scary thougts
and so on
forever
until
I fall
of exhaustion
Truth is
it may never stop
it may be that the fear will always be here
in that part of me
and that
it will never stop talking
inside of me
But
still
I have
a choice
The traffic is raging
screaming
but I don't have to let it run me over
That crazy traffic of thoughts
is loud
and unending
but all it wants
is to grab my attention
and never let it go
But ...
that's
entirely
for me
to choose
I can choose
where I focus my attention
I can choose
which of these parts I will listen to
which one I will follow
which one I will attend to
the scared traffic
or
the light
At every moment
I can choose
to yield
to my fears
to try to appease the worry for a short while
by going back to where I was before
to try to compare myself to who's around and feel unadequate
or threatened
or reassured for short while
to try to hide behind my walls to avoid being judged
for a short while
to try to ask for reassuring words
and try to convince myself thatI am indeed reassured
for a short while
to try to wear a better mask
to try to learn a better mask to wear
to try to buy a better mask to wear
until it wears out
in a short while
to try to numb myself
with food
with more noise
with more confusion
with my drug of choice
until it gets addictive
to try to distract myself
with cynicism
with resentment
with sneers
with mockery
for a short while
and with mocking the mockery
for another short while
to let my very own confusion exhaust me
and to accept all the rationalizations it readily hands me over
to let it make me so tired I feel I have no other option than going to bed
and not do anything
for a short while
All this will not change anything
the moment after that
the next day
the next year
will be the same
and so on
short while after short while
But ... that's exactly the point of all this
after all
Just surviving
...
Instead
I could
choose
to attend to that other part of myself
the one I cannot
simply
yield to
the part
I have to listen to
in the silence
the part
that requires me to
choose
to make silence
and
to actually make silence
the part
that requires me to
refuse to delightfully accept
the confusion
the part
that will never go away
that will never be swayed
that will never be convinced to stop from being
the one
that has no opposite
the one
that is
And
then
I can choose
to act upon
what I was shown
upon
who I am
This is a
choice
that needs to be
made
all the time
Once is not enough
once has never been enough
Every moment
I have this choice
of which part of me
I focus on
satisfying my fears by recoiling
or
getting out and play in the light
There is no bargain
there is no later
choosing later is the realm of fear
there is only a choice
right now
to listen to who I am
with great care
or
to accept what will keep me at a safe distance from it
Right now
after right now
after right now
...
which am I choosing to serve ?
