Photograph taken at 10:33am on Tuesday 10th September 2013 at an altitude of One hundred and sixty metres having clambered across the rocks to view Bracklinn Falls, just East of Callander in the Trossachs, Scotland. Flanked by the Allt a Choire Bhric, the River Keltie flows over the rocks which were formed around 410 million years ago. The falls consist of five cataracts which range from around 6ft to about 25ft.

In 2004, a steel bridge over the falls was washed away by floods. In October 2010 a new, 20-tonne wood-and-copper one, spanning 20m across a very deep gorge, was hauled into place by hand because its location made it impossible to use a crane. In July 2011 this new bridge was awarded at the International Footbridge Awards

...non ha proprio alcun senso.

L'unica cosa da fare è mantenere la calma, tirare dritto. La mancanza di senso altrui e del tutto intorno è palese, prenderne coscienza, accettarlo e convinverci è l'unica soluzione.

Ragionarne non serve a nulla.

Cercarvi una logica è stupido.

Let it flow.

Photograph taken at 10:32am on Tuesday 10th September 2013 at an altitude of One hundred and fifty nine metres having clambered across the rocks to view Bracklinn Falls, just East of Callander in the Trossachs, Scotland. Flanked by the Allt a Choire Bhric, the River Keltie flows over the rocks which were formed around 410 million years ago. The falls consist of five cataracts which range from around 6ft to about 25ft.

In 2004, a steel bridge over the falls was washed away by floods. In October 2010 a new, 20-tonne wood-and-copper one, spanning 20m across a very deep gorge, was hauled into place by hand because its location made it impossible to use a crane. In July 2011 this new bridge was awarded at the International Footbridge Awards

Let It Flow

Part of a public art installation in front of the Willis (Sears) Tower.

Downtown, The Loop, Chicago, Illinois.

Tuesday, May 14, 2013.

..and let the troubles of the world tumble and flow around you. Yeah - they'll still wear you down eventually. But it'll take a long, long time.

Doesn't mean we have to turn a blind eye though.

Take for instance the price of gas.. The price of gasoline doesn’t exist in a vacuum. When the price of energy (oil) rises – everything is affected. Everything we see, do, touch, eat or drink is affected by the price of oil. The keys and mouse you're using now. The chair you're sitting in. The coffee you had for breakfast, and the toast, the butter and the fridge you got it out of. Everything.

The President believes that by allowing the price of gasoline to rise, the price of alternatives will become more acceptable. Not cheaper - just closer to the price of oil, which he despises. That's what he means when he says we need to ignore our pain, and concentrate on 'The Big Picture'.. You know - like he does.

Because why would anyone switch to more expensive, more complicated, and less reliable forms of energy as long as the price of gasoline is low? But, if you make the price of gasoline high, the theory goes – then by comparison, the price of the alternatives is more competitive.. Right? But there’s a problem with this simple logic..

And that is, the immutable fact that the price of energy affects everything. Everything. Including the manufacturing, maintenance, delivery, installation and price of those alternative sources of energy. Not to mention the price of Corn Flakes and milk. All that happens when the price of oil goes up, is that there is a 'sea rise' effect, where all forms of energy rise in cost, and as the additional costs are passed on to the consumer. Uh - that's you..

Which in turn makes the price of oil competitive again.. It's a conundrum, is what is is.. At least to those who believe the laws of nature - and the marketplace - don't apply to them.

Thanks for visiting!

The goal of the protest is to persuade George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to reduce the UK’s “outdated, damaging” sanitary tax from five to zero per cent. #letitflow

mixtapesessions.com/adam / Recorded over the span of three years, Adam’s debut album is an eclectic mix of jazz, dance and world music. Full of positivity and diversity, this LP feels like a breath of fresh air. “Peace of Mind” and “Humble Beginnings” set the tone for the album’s creative spirit while vocalist queen AaMinah combines her melodic vocals with Adam’s sultry style to bring you the beautiful “Really Love You”. Eddie Nicholas steps in with his powerhouse vocals during “Time Marches On”, a cover of the Jungle Wonz classic, and “Ghumbah”, a latin tune about dancing to your own groove - your own ‘Ghumbah’. Adam lends his vocals during “11:11”, a clever track about time repeating itself while his sister, singer Flora Cruz, sings her heart out on the album’s title track, “Life and Times,” a beautiful song about living the best that life has to offer. Legendary vocalist, Gerideau, brings pure magic with the politically charged anthem, “Letitflow” and the album’s epilogue, “L.O.V.E.” In all, the “Life and Times” LP is a timeless piece of music! This Deluxe Edition includes 7 new songs including the brand new smash hits “Dancer In The Dark,” “Nothing But Me” and so much more!

It is to you I give this tune.
