Howard Johnson Motor Lodge and Restaurant located at 3951 NW Blitchton Rd. in Ocala,FL. The motel which underwent a significant renovation in 2016 was the first HJ location to incorporate the "Renew" brand standards implemented by Wyndham Worldwide. The owners went above and beyond by adding not only an orange roof but a Simple Simon weathervane atop the lobby which is shared with an onsite Howard Johnson Restaurant open to the public. The restaurant does not use the original HJ recipes but it is the closest one will get to eating an order of clams and having an ice cream sundae under an orange roof. The rooms were completely renovated and provide a slight nod to the past with the orange walls and a mix of mid-century themed furnishings. The property which was built in the mid 1960s didnt operate as a HoJo's until the late 1990s but instead (likely) an Econo Lodge. Since the property was converted into a Howard Johnson before the restaurant division went under in 2004 its possible that the space where the limited service HJ Restaurant is operating was and is in fact "technically" an authentic Howard Johnson's Restaurant. While staying at the property on February 1st and 2nd of 2018 I had a wonderful conversation with the property owner, his wife, and the manager on duty who gave me the scoop about the remodel and the "words" and "phrases" that can and cannot be used according to Wyndham guidelines. According to the manager the restaurant got the "okay" to use the phrase "HoJo's Famous Flounder and Clams" but not use the word "tendersweet" for reasons unknown. Additionally the restaurant which is part of the hotel and is open to the public cannot formally be branded a "Howard Johnson's Restaurant" (Note the 's). They claim to be the only Howard Johnson location to have an onsite restaurant but the wife of the owner emphasized saying the only location "for now" with a big smile on her face.
I wanted to shoot some of the collection of old horse-drawn farming implements (whether I recognized them or not) by the old barn I captured previously. (In the Photo Set) I wandered around the barn and especially to the back that I have not looked over before. Here is a detail of the old barn. I suspect that he didn't store grains in here because it looks like he designed it so he could feed hay directly from the barn. Back in the day, this barn might have housed Coffin's horses that allowed him to work the land and join Chivington and participate in the Sand Creek Massacre, an event that some silt heads defend to this day. He was determined to eliminate the Indian threat if not the tribes themselves. I wonder how he would stand on the illegal immigration and if he would put up bronze bilingual plaques on his old barn. That is not Eddie praising Chivington, he created his own tribute, in a his own fashion!
I can only assume that because the barn was built on a concrete knee-wall that it was in the flood plain and precaution was taken. It survived last September's flood too. It has stood the test of time! There were gravel pits across on the south of the river and last year's flood rolled through them and left a real mess. The bridge is there but the terrain on the other side is gone. Even I remember floods (only one fairly monumental one) that might have crept up here. Along the tops of the cliffs, cactus perches on the last of the parched, pseudo soil; fertile valley floods created this pasture. Perhaps the climate deniers caused last year's flood.

Essay:
Earth's Transformation and the Random Implementation of Alien Technology
The Earth, once a vibrant planet teeming with diverse ecosystems, has undergone a drastic transformation. A severe environmental catastrophe has devastated the planet, leading to the evaporation of life-giving water into the vast expanse of space. The once-blue planet is now dominated by barren deserts, stretching across continents where oceans and forests once thrived. Humanity, on the brink of extinction, has been thrust into a desperate struggle for survival.
The catalyst for this environmental apocalypse was a combination of factors: uncontrolled industrial activity, rampant deforestation, and unchecked pollution. These human activities pushed Earth's climate system past a critical threshold, triggering a cascade of irreversible changes. The polar ice caps melted at unprecedented rates, causing sea levels to rise and then rapidly fall as water vapor escaped the atmosphere. Rainforests, which acted as the planet's lungs, were decimated, and the delicate balance of ecosystems collapsed. The result was a planet unrecognizable from its former self—a desolate wasteland where life struggled to find a foothold.
In this dire scenario, hope arrived in the form of alien technology—an unexpected boon that became humanity's lifeline. The origins of this technology remain shrouded in mystery. Some speculate it was discovered accidentally during deep-space explorations, while others believe it was gifted by a benevolent extraterrestrial civilization. Regardless of its origins, this advanced technology became the cornerstone of Earth's new survival strategy.
The alien technology enabled the creation of isolated oases in the vast desert expanses. These oases, shielded by energy fields and sustained by advanced atmospheric processors, mimic the lost ecosystems of old Earth. They generate and recycle water, maintain breathable air, and support agriculture, allowing small human communities to thrive. The technology also includes sophisticated climate control mechanisms that protect these fertile areas from the harsh desert environment.
The implementation of alien technology was a stroke of luck, a fortuitous discovery in humanity's darkest hour. Scientists and engineers, initially skeptical, soon realized the potential of these alien devices. Through trial and error, they managed to integrate this technology into the remnants of human civilization. This integration was not without its challenges—there were numerous failures and setbacks, but the resilience of the human spirit prevailed.
Life in these technologically sustained oases is a stark contrast to the desolation that surrounds them. Within the protective domes, greenery flourishes, and small bodies of water reflect the sky. Communities have adapted to this new way of living, embracing a lifestyle that is a blend of ancient survival techniques and futuristic technology. Education systems focus on maintaining and understanding the alien technology, ensuring that future generations can continue to benefit from it.
The concept of 'Planet B' has taken on a new meaning. Instead of seeking a new home among the stars, humanity has been forced to redefine its existence on Earth—'Planet B' is Earth reborn, a new chapter after 'Planet A' vanished beneath the waves of environmental disaster. The Earth of today is a testament to human ingenuity and the unforeseen assistance of alien technology. It is a world where the line between science fiction and reality has blurred, and where survival hinges on the harmonious integration of alien and human advancements.
In conclusion, the transformation of Earth and the serendipitous implementation of alien technology have given rise to a new way of life. This new existence is fragile and fraught with challenges, but it is also a beacon of hope. The 'Cradle of the Desert' represents the resilience of life and the enduring quest for survival in the face of insurmountable odds.
Poem:
In deserts wide where oceans slept,
Beneath a sky where sorrow wept,
Alien whispers, silent, deep,
Brought life anew from restless sleep.
Once blue and green, now dust and bone,
Our planet’s heart, a hollow tone,
Yet through the sands, technology,
Revived the hope for you and me.
In domes of light, we plant our dreams,
Where water flows in gentle streams,
Alien hands unseen, yet kind,
Breathe life back to a world confined.
From barren waste to fertile land,
A future forged by chance and hand,
Cradle of the Desert, bright,
Guides us through this endless night.
Haikus:
Alien whispers,
Oases bloom in deserts,
Hope in arid lands.
Earth’s rebirth at hand,
Technology’s gentle touch,
Life in barren sands.
Here's my LEGO rendition of the 2022 Ferrari F1-75, which was raced by Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. The 2022 Formula One World Championship saw a major change of the technical regulations, with the reintroduction of ground effect aerodynamics and restriction of radical designs. These changes were implemented with the intention to reduce an F1 car's wake of turbulent air (aka "dirty air") that disturbs the aerodynamic flow of following cars, thus allowing for closer racing and more overtaking.
The F1-75 proved to be competitive at the beginning of the 2022 season, taking 2 wins, 2 poles, 3 fastest laps, and 5 podiums in the first 3 races. However, unreliability and a downturn in performance (especially after the FIA's Technical Directive 39 which was targeted at reducing porpoising) in the latter half of the season resulted in Red Bull winning both the drivers and constructors championships with relative ease.
This approximately 1:15 scale LEGO creation was probably the most difficult F1 car I've built to date. The design of this car is quite a departure from the previous F1 cars I've built, so I had to approach this build with a blank slate. The sidepods and engine cover shaping of the F1-75, which some have likened to a bathtub, is very organic and unique. Recreating this was by far the most challenging aspect of this creation. I hope I have done this car justice as it is one of the coolest F1 cars in terms of design in my opinion. A big thanks goes to Steve Hall (Instagram: @stevehallego) for making the stickers that help recreate the livery.

Colombia, 2022.
The Peace Agreement in Colombia, signed in 2016 between the Government and the guerrilla group FARC-EP, put an end to the longest war in Latin America.
Six years later, more than 13,000 ex-combatants, a third of which are women, continue to face daily challenges resulting from their reintegration into civil life. The country's new government has generated momentum both domestically and internationally towards the reactivation of the women, peace and security agenda, emphasizing the importance of the reintegration process to achieve a stable peace.
Since its inception, the Peace Agreement has included a gender approach as an indispensable condition for its implementation. Women ex-combatants have enthusiastically embraced new roles as mothers, entrepreneurs, students, citizens and political leaders. However, their lives are still full of challenges related to their physical, legal and political security; educational and economic opportunities; and access to specialized health services, among others. These conditions are key for a successful reintegration.
UN Women, together with governmental and civil society actors, supports this process with actions that strengthen women's citizenship, political leadership and economic empowerment, as well as prevent gender violence and build new masculinities among male ex-combatants. Nearly 3,000 women in 11 regions of the country benefit from these programs, allowing them to strengthen their role as peacebuilders.
Pictured: Marinelly Hernandez and her partner Javier, both former FARC guerrilla fighters, are now in process of reintegration into civilian life. They started dating right before the Peace Agreement in Colombia was signed and they moved together to Pondores.

In southern England in the nineteenth century flocks of sheep would be regularly moved from pasture to pasture so that their manure fertilised the soil. The shepherd moved with them, living in a hut like this one, which retains the wood burning pot-bellied stove, bed, and a selection of shepherd’s implements but with a modern cooker and refrigerator.
There is a beautiful description of a shepherd’s life in such a hut in chapter 2 of Thomas Hardy's novel 'Far from the madding crowd':
“The ring of the sheep-bell, which had been silent during his absence, recommenced, in tones that had more mellowness than clearness, owing to an increasing growth of surrounding wool. This continued till Oak withdrew again from the flock. He returned to the hut, bringing in his arms a new- born lamb, consisting of four legs large enough for a full- grown sheep, united by a seemingly inconsiderable membrane about half the substance of the legs collectively, which constituted the animal's entire body just at present.
The little speck of life he placed on a wisp of hay before the small stove, where a can of milk was simmering. Oak extinguished the lantern by blowing into it and then pinching the snuff, the cot being lighted by a candle suspended by a twisted wire. A rather hard couch, formed of a few corn sacks thrown carelessly down, covered half the floor of this little habitation, and here the young man stretched himself along, loosened his woollen cravat, and closed his eyes. In about the time a person unaccustomed to bodily labour would have decided upon which side to lie, Farmer Oak was asleep.
The inside of the hut, as it now presented itself, was cosy and alluring, and the scarlet handful of fire in addition to the candle, reflecting its own genial colour upon whatever it could reach, flung associations of enjoyment even over utensils and tools. In the corner stood the sheep-crook, and along a shelf at one side were ranged bottles and canisters of the simple preparations pertaining to ovine surgery and physic; spirits of wine, turpentine, tar, magnesia, ginger, and castor-oil being the chief. On a triangular shelf across the corner stood bread, bacon, cheese, and a cup for ale or cider, which was supplied from a flagon beneath. Beside the provisions lay the flute, whose notes had lately been called forth by the lonely watcher to beguile a tedious hour. The house was ventilated by two round holes, like the lights of a ship's cabin, with wood slides.
The lamb, revived by the warmth began to bleat, and the sound entered Gabriel's ears and brain with an instant meaning, as expected sounds will. Passing from the profoundest sleep to the most alert wakefulness with the same ease that had accompanied the reverse operation, he looked at his watch, found that the hour-hand had shifted again, put on his hat, took the lamb in his arms, and carried it into the darkness. After placing the little creature with its mother, he stood and carefully examined the sky, to ascertain the time of night from the altitudes of the stars.”

And as I promised, the last plate I created on that day was appropriately one of my hands at the end of the process. When you coat the plates you hold them like a waiter holds a drink tray and you pour the collodion onto the plate and tilt the plate toward all four corners to spread the mixture. Invariably (regularly if you are a beginner) some of it dribbles off and onto your hand. Then when you pull the plate from the silver nitrate bath, some of that silver nitrate gets onto your hands and mixes with the collodion that is on there, creating a light sensitive emulsion on your skin which immediately gets exposed to light. Finally when you take your exposed plate into the darkroom and pour developer over it, that developer spills off onto your hands and develops the emulsion on them, which at this point are incredibly over-exposed and turn black. It wears off in a day or two, but til then you have some nicely stained hands.
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to make a wet plate image of my wet plate stained hands. The results of the process documented by the process. There is a nice logic to that.
Warchief, everything is set as you ordered! The enemy ships just docked and they are unloading the troops. They will be here in an hour.- reported commander of the scouts.
Burlogh O'Rohal let out a sigh. For some reason I hoped they change their mind. - So it is decreeded. Stay calm and follow my orders.
Scouts of Lenfald army road into the valley. Suddenly a band of cheering beastman jumped out from the woods and ran towards them. Commander of the cavalry ordered a charge. The beastman group seemed confused and started to flee. Everything went as the warchief planned. The knights followed the Ironclad Company but after the turn of the road they faced a troll phalanx. Their charge broke in a minute. The beastmen turned back and flanked the cavalry.
Meanwhile main force of the invaders faced some problem too. Magical song rang over the valley as combined power of shamans created huge flamesnakes. As the fire stroke down to the knights, a sniper rose up from his hiding spot. His first shot hit the Lenfald commander who fall down to the ground. His army became disorganised in a moment. The ground shaked as Dragon Maiden lead their charge. The Lenfald army was surrounded in a few minutes. Their only chance was the road, but it was blocked by the warchief himself.
Let the massacre begin! For freedom, for the Bleeding Claws! - roared Burlogh and started to run and the horde followed him...

A Força Aérea organiza o exercício europeu multinacional Hot Blade 2021 (HB2021), de 16 a 30 de junho, na Base Aérea N.º 11, em Beja, no âmbito do Helicopter Exercise Programme, da Agência Europeia de Defesa (EDA).
O HB2021, planeado pelo Comando Aéreo, conta com a participação de cerca de 1500 militares e 26 meios aéreos de Portugal, Áustria, Eslovénia e Holanda. Neste exercício participam também controladores aéreos avançados (JTAC’s) da Bélgica e observadores da Eslováquia, Itália e Sérvia.
O objetivo geral do exercício passa por aumentar a interoperabilidade de operações entre os Estados-Membros da EDA, expondo as forças participantes a um ambiente operacional complexo, no qual podem treinar técnicas, táticas e procedimentos, preparando-as para os teatros de conflito atuais e missões de apoio humanitário.
As missões estão planeadas para a zona centro e sul de Portugal Continental, com a preocupação de diminuir o impacto no meio ambiente e na população.
Sob recomendação da Direção-Geral da Saúde, serão estabelecidas áreas segregadas e implementadas medidas de prevenção, incluindo a realização de testes semanais à COVID-19 a todos os participantes, de forma a garantir um ambiente seguro para o desenvolvimento das operações aéreas.
La primera etapa de la llamada “Guerra contra el Narcotráfico”, fue el “Operativo Conjunto Michoacán”, implementado por el Ex Presidente Felipe Calderón Hinojosa, este operativo fue y sigue siendo duramente cuestionado por las faltas graves a la Constitución mexicana y por las violaciones a los derechos humanos que podría haber incurrido la presencia militar en el Estado de Michoacán y paulatinamente en México. (a mediados de Mayo de 2013, E. Peña Nieto ha iniciado un operativo similar).
Para diferentes analistas políticos y jurídicos resaltan que la intervención de las Fuerzas militares va en contra de lo dispuesto en el artículo 129 Constitucional, que establece lo siguiente:
Artículo 129. En tiempo de paz, ninguna autoridad militar puede ejercer más funciones que las que tengan exacta conexión con la disciplina militar. Solamente habrá Comandancias Militares fijas y permanentes en los castillos, fortalezas y almacenes que dependan inmediatamente del Gobierno de la Unión; o en los campamentos, cuarteles o depósitos que, fuera de las poblaciones, estableciere para la estación de las tropas.
Bajo este fundamento Constitucional se realiza la pregunta: ¿La disposición que realizó Felipe Calderón Hinojosa y que fue acatada por los Secretarios de Defensa y Marina, viola la Constitución?
En términos del artículo 129 Constitucional, no puede realizar las funciones que de manera diaria viene realizando desde aproximadamente siete años el Ejército, Armada y Marina, se podría decir bajo este fundamento que es anticonstitucional la intervención del ejército en las calles.
Sin embargo cuando se hable de “amenazas a la seguridad anterior” podría cambiar la opinión al respecto, según la resolución que presenta la Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación (SCJN) de una acción de inconstitucionalidad en el año de 1996, presentada por el diputado federal en ese entonces Leonel Godoy Rangel que planteaba que el acto de autoridad era anticonstitucional, la causa de esta acción de inconstitucionalidad era la presencia del Ejército en Michoacán enviados por el Presidente en ese entonces Ernesto Zedillo.

“ EJÉRCITO, ARMADA Y FUERZA AÉREA. SU PARTICIPACIÓN EN AUXILIO DE LAS AUTORIDADES CIVILES ES CONSTITUCIONAL (INTERPRETACIÓN DEL ARTÍCULO 129 DE LA CONSTITUCIÓN).
La interpretación histórica, armónica y lógica del artículo 129 constitucional, autoriza considerar que las fuerzas armadas pueden actuar en auxilio de las autoridades civiles, cuando éstas soliciten el apoyo de la fuerza con la que disponen. Por esta razón, el instituto armado está constitucionalmente facultado para actuar en materias de seguridad pública en auxilio de las autoridades competentes y la participación en el Consejo Nacional de Seguridad Pública de los titulares de las Secretarías de la Defensa Nacional y de Marina, quienes por disposición de los artículos 29, fracción I, y 30, fracción I, de la Ley Orgánica de la Administración Pública Federal, tienen a su mando al Ejército, Armada y Fuerza Aérea, no atenta contra el numeral señalado del Código Supremo. Además, la fracción VI del artículo 89 constitucional faculta al presidente de la República a disponer de dichas fuerzas para la seguridad interior. Por estas razones, no es indispensable la declaratoria de suspensión de garantías individuales, prevista para situaciones extremas en el artículo 29 constitucional, para que el Ejército, Armada y Fuerza Aérea intervengan, ya que la realidad puede generar un sinnúmero de situaciones que no justifiquen el estado de emergencia, pero que ante el peligro de que se agudicen, sea necesario disponer de la fuerza con que cuenta el Estado mexicano sujetándose a las disposiciones constitucionales y legales aplicables.
Acción de inconstitucionalidad 1/96. Leonel Godoy Rangel y otros. 5 de marzo de 1996. Once votos. Ponente: Mariano Azuela Güitrón. Secretaria: Mercedes Rodarte Magdaleno.
El Tribunal Pleno, en su sesión privada celebrada hoy veintisiete de marzo en curso, acordó, con apoyo en su Acuerdo Número 4/1996 de veinticuatro de agosto de mil novecientos noventa y seis, relativo a los efectos de las resoluciones aprobadas por cuando menos ocho votos en las controversias constitucionales y en las acciones de inconstitucionalidad, que la tesis que antecede (publicada en marzo de ese año, como aislada, con el número XXIX/96), se publique como jurisprudencial, con el número 38/2000. México, Distrito Federal, a veintisiete de marzo de dos mil.”
Esta resolución fue un precedente para que el Ex Presidente Felipe Calderón dispusiera del ejército en las calles, y de esta manera realizar su guerra absurda contra el crimen organizado, haciendo valer su facultad como Presidente que viene establecida en la la fracción VI del artículo 89, siendo este su fundamento para su acción “bélica”:
“Preservar la seguridad nacional, en los términos de la ley respectiva, y disponer de la totalidad de la Fuerza Armada permanente o sea del Ejército, de la Armada y de la Fuerza Aérea para la seguridad interior y defensa exterior de la Federación. “
Bajo estos argumentos se podría decir que la presencia del Ejército en las calles no trasgrede lo dispuesto en la Constitución en el artículo 129 y de igual manera lo planteado por el artículo 21, que dispone que las fuerzas de seguridad pública sean de carácter civil.
Tomar una decisión de trascendencia como la realizada por Calderón, fundamentándose en una tesis de jurisprudencial, teniendo en cuanta que la resolución de la Corte puede cambiar en cualquier momento, y sabiendo que de los ministros que tomaron aquella resolución solamente se encuentra en la corte en este momento, Juan Silva Meza y Olga Sánchez Cordero.
¿Los actuales ministros resolverían de manera diferente la controversia sobre la presencia del ejército en las calles sin la declaratoria de Estado de emergencia?, la tendencia que ha tomado la SCJN en acotar el fuero militar, al momento que se presente algún conflicto con civiles, podría ser precedente para que la SCJN fallara en contra de la presencia del ejército en las calles.
Como ejemplo encontramos la declaración que realizó el ministro José Ramón Cossío, en el debate realizado por la SCJN en relación del fuero militar señaló:
“Creo que el Ejército no está para cumplir funciones de seguridad pública en términos de la propia Constitución; entiendo que todo el sistema de seguridad pública está construido a partir de servicios de policía, no a partir de servicios de los miembros de las Fuerzas Armadas”
Si se discutiera en este momento la presencia del Ejército en las calles, la SCJN dictaminaría la inconstitucionalidad de este acto de autoridad realizado por Felipe Calderón y sus secretarios de Defensa y Marina, de igual manera él y sus secretarios tendrían que responder por su responsabilidad penal, primero sus secretarios por refrendar un acto completamente en contra de la ley fundamental, y en segundo el Ex Presidente por realizar un decreto completamente contrario a la Constitución que juro guardar y hacer guardar.
El artículo 129 constitucional prohíbe la presencia del Ejército en labores con alguna conexión con la disciplina militar y que se han realizadas en tiempos de paz, en relación el artículo 21 establece que las instituciones de seguridad del país solo pueden ser de carácter civil.
¿Cómo pudo justificar Felipe Calderón, la presencia del Ejército en las calles, en la lucha contra el crimen organizado?, en la fracción VI del artículo 89 de la Constitución otorga la facultad al Presidente de disponer de las fuerzas armadas para garantizar la seguridad interior y la defensa exterior, sin embargo, ¿Qué es la “seguridad interior” que menciona la Carta Magna?
La ley vigente de Seguridad Nacional, no contempla el concepto de “seguridad interior”, que es manejado por la Constitución, en la iniciativa que realizó Felipe Calderón presenta una definición: “Es la condición en la que la estabilidad interna y permanencia del Estado mexicano se encuentran garantizadas a través de la aplicación coordinada de sus recursos y medios”
Sin embargo el Senado de la república al momento que le fue turnada para revisar la iniciativa de reforma, creó su propia definición de “seguridad interior”:
“La condición de estabilidad interna, paz y orden público, que permite a la población su constante mejoramiento y desarrollo económico, social y cultural; y cuya garantía es una función que está a cargo de los tres poderes de gobierno”.
Por último la Cámara de Diputados realizó algunos cambios a la definición planteada en la minuta del Senado, dejándola de la siguiente manera:
“La condición de estabilidad interna y permanencia del Estado mexicano, que permite a la población su constante mejoramiento y desarrollo económico, social y cultural; y cuya garantía es una función que está a cargo de los tres órdenes de gobierno, con la concurrencia de los sectores social y privado”.
Se realizaron dos decretos uno el 9 de mayo de 2007 y otro el 17 de septiembre de 2007, ambos planteaban la creación de un Cuerpo Especial de Fuerzas de Apoyo Federal del Ejercito y la Fuerza Área.
Sin embargo el único fundamento legal que presentan esos decretos es una jurisprudencia mencionada anteriormente, no existía un marco jurídico fuerte que apoyara las acciones de “guerra” del presidente, su proyecto no tuvo mayor trascendencia que solo quedarse en iniciativa, ya que no hubo el impulso suficiente por parte del Ejecutivo, puede ser que Calderón se dio cuenta de ilegalidad que estaba por cometer.
El 23 de abril de 2009 el Ejecutivo realizó una iniciativa de reforma a la Ley de Seguridad Nacional.
Esta Reforma estuvo de paseo en la Cámara de diputados y la Cámara de Senadores durante más de tres años, sin embargo durante ese lapso de tiempo el Ejército se encontraba en “guerra” contra el crimen organizado, sin mandato conforme a la ley.
Esto demuestra la incompetencia de un Congreso en donde solo se manejan intereses de los miembros que conforman las cámaras, el Congreso tuvo la oportunidad de parar de manera legal, una guerra ilegal que termino al final del 2012 con más de 100 mil muertos, y un centenar de desaparecidos, el Congreso es cómplice de la muerte al mostrar su burocracia y no ver por los intereses de los mexicanos.
Felipe Calderón Hinojosa, actuó fuera de la ley, realizando sus funciones como un dictador, y disponiendo de las Fuerzas Armadas sin tener en cuenta ningún procedimiento, realizando un decreto con fundamento en una jurisprudencia que interpreta el artículo 129 Constitucional y ampliando facultades a un servidor público, cuando claramente solamente la ley puede otorgar estas facultades.
Felipe Calderón utilizo las Fuerzas Armadas, sin una declaración previa de guerra, un decreto de disposición del Ejército, Armada y Marina que se base legalmente en un precepto jurídico con más jerarquía que una jurisprudencia realizada en un tiempo social e histórico, que nada tiene que ver con el México bélico que se vive en estos momentos, de igual manera no hubo un decreto ley de suspensión de garantías, las Fuerzas Armadas están actuando fuera de los limites legales, realizando disposiciones y funciones que no le corresponden.
Felipe Calderón Hinojosa traicionó a la patria, al no respetar las disposiciones que plantea la Constitución, es un criminal de guerra, que dejó al país en una de sus mayores crisis de seguridad en su historia, la psicosis que se vive en la mayoría de las entidades de la federación, es más evidente en los Estados norteños pero eso deja fuera al sur del país, que día con día se viven secuestros y extorsiones, la gente ha perdido la confianza de las autoridades y de cualquier persona que se encuentre ahí.
Un Congreso inepto es lo que te tocó a Felipe Calderón que fungió como un cómplice de sus crímenes de lesa humanidad.
Sin fundamento legal, o con un fundamento sin fortaleza jurídica, la “guerra contra el crimen organizado” sigue azotando a México, mientras que el “criminal de guerra” (Felipe Calderón), así acusado ante La Corte Penal Internacional de La Haya, disfruta de unas vacaciones todo pagadas por el Estado mexicano, en virtud de la pensión vitalicia presidencial (250 mil pesos mensuales)

Hope you like how the details of the sculpture are implemented with the bricks- the curvy contour, wavy skirt, and body slightly leaning forward.

Este santuário está
implementado numa vasta
área consagrada ao culto
Mariano e constitui um pólo
de dinamização de
numerosas actividades de
espiritualidade, recolhimento
e apoio social. Na sua
génese, está a resposta das
populações do nordeste
transmontano à mensagem
de Fátima, através de uma
acção liderada por um
sacerdote natural da região: o
P. Manuel Joaquim Ochôa.
Começou a ser edificado em
1961. Para a sua construção
foi necessária a colaboração
de todo o povo de Cerejais,
homens e mulheres; eles com
quatrocentos carros de bois
de pedra e elas com o transporte de toda a água necessária à construção,
muita da qual foi transportada em cântaros, à cabeça.
Além da capela principal, fazem parte do conjunto do santuário:
l O Calvário (fig.1.1) com uma capelinha onde se encontra um conjunto
escultórico, em tamanho natural, que representa o encontro da Mãe
Dolorosa com o seu Divino Filho.
l Uma Via-sacra que percorre o caminho entre a Capela e o Calvário e
cujas cruzes foram esculpidas em granito da aldeia de Romeu.
Dois anos mais tarde, em 28 de Maio de 1967, celebrou-se a “festa dos
Bispos” como ficou conhecida a inauguração dos quinze Mistérios do
Rosário, que estão representados por outras tantas figuras esculpidas que
se distribuem à beira do caminho entre a capela e a Loca do Cabeço. Com
efeito, nas cerimónias desta inauguração, estiveram presentes os bispos
de Bragança-Miranda, Leiria, Lamego e Dili.
Em 1976 foi edificado o primeiro pavilhão da Casa dos Pastorinhos e foi
ampliada a torre sineira.
1977 foi o ano da comemoração do 60º aniversário das aparições em
Fátima e o Santuário dos Cerejais foi o ponto central das comemorações
na diocese de Bragança-Miranda.
seu desejo ao rei que logo pensou juntar o útil ao agradável: fez a vontade
à esposa e aproveitou o pretexto para construir uma fortificação militar nas
proximidades, dado que se tratava de um local estratégico para a
segurança do reino.
A administração da capela e dos seus folgados proventos determinados
por D. Dinis foi entregue aos frades beneditinos do mosteiro do Castro da
Avelãs, que se localiza a cerca de 30 km de distância, próximo a Bragança.
No reinado de D. João III, foi construída a catedral de Miranda, que passou
a ser a sede da diocese para quem passou a administração do santuário.
Durante todos estes anos, as actividades de culto foram promovidas pela
confraria que contava sempre com um mordomo castelhano, o que
confirma a grande influência que o santuário exerce do outro lado da
fronteira. Do lado espanhol o Santuário é designado por “La Ribeiriña”.
Apesar da grande quantidade de romeiros e da celebração anual das
grandes romarias, o templo chegou ao final do século XIX num estado de
apreciável degradação. Providencialmente surgiu um benemérito, próspero
emigrante no Brasil, natural de Castrelos, de seu nome António do Carmo
Pires.

Well, this title proves I must be unhinged but I didn't even forget it since last night when I thought it up so it stuck. Unfortunately two of the clunky signs showed in this shot and I will probably clone them out when I collapse the layers back together. Way too much work otherwise. The crowd was a bit much for a Friday weekday and even highway #66 seemed overloaded with travelers and RVs probably on their way up to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park (area right of the wind mill). Highway #66 does not appear in this shot and thank goodness I had little cloning on the cars! I appreciated the way the sky was beginning to display in a spray on the widest angle shots. I moved in for consecutively tighter shots on the red barn after I captured "The old spread" and tried to crop out problems as was possible. I fiddled with the horizon but it has to be on a slant. The terrain slopes down and left to McIntosh Lake that is over in northwest Longmont. On the right hand side of the frame is the new stock shed where they are housing the ponies and pigs while the slow elk, left, have to feed themselves. There are several exhibits inside the red barn for the mommas to explain to the kiddies. All the kiddies want is a cool soda pop as long as they have to walk. Careful, the chickens and bunnies are under foot; a delight to the kiddies no doubt. I went out again on Sunday and shot more photos including some of the signs so I'd have a record. We can't agree which was the McIntosh barn and which was moved in from the FAA property. A strange day it is because the place was empty but Highway #66 was a real pain with folks apparently heading for Rocky Mountain National Park. We just got out of there last Tuesday and I figure it will be a wild one for the summer. You couldn't pay me to go now, except for a cooler day.
This is the McIntosh-Lohr Farm Agricultural Museum on Highway #66, (not the same as Route #66). I had by now dropped everything else. Though the clouding has been absent recently, they really popped the structures today but I still had to wait for the chickens to cross the road before they allowed me passage. Today, though, served up a sprinkle and they promise 92 tomorrow. Keep editing in the cool, I guess. I am spending extra time on the best of the captures considering these abundant skies. I was just in time for the sky. I looked out of my window and jumped up, gathered my camera and split. I scored shots out here some years ago but the sky was a dud and I was using my old D70. The farm/museum is part way between Largemont and Hygiene, Colorado. Today, I can afford the time to stop and look (it was my "race on debt" for being there) over the old shots I ought to have spotted before. I bet though I'd better manage it in an hour or two. They have added new venues and I am in a wandering mood. Here is one of my results. The day would later collapse to overcast, allowing time to start editing. There COULD be some time involved in editing. After I boiled the layers down to a TIFF, I edited objects I could then.
