mapa inventado
de viajante a deriva
rotas desconhecidas
trajetórias não traçadas
sigo assim vulnerável
abandonada pelo certo, pelo determinado
vou andando cega
nesta liberdade tão nova em que qualquer paradeiro cabe, qualquer vontade pode ser

Rare wartime Italian Malta map donated to FWA
A super-rare wartime Italian military map of Malta was donated to Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna for display in one of its heritage sites and museums. The map consists of a large A-1 size map issued by Super Aerea – the High Command of the Regia Aeronautica (Royal Italian Airforce) dated 1941. This map shows all the military objectives on the island from fortifications, gun batteries, military camps, machinegun positions, signal station, airfields, naval installations and much more. It also carries a highly detailed list of all place names in Malta. The map was issued for joint Italian and German use; hence it also includes the German language. It is marked ‘Secret’ in bold and carries the order ‘Not to be taken in the air’.
The map was presented to FWA Chairman Mario Farrugia by Fiammetta Curcio of Rome through the good services of Antione Blanchez, daughter of Ing. Dante Curcio who during the war was an Italian air force officer employed in the jamming of the RAF radar stations on Malta. Ing. Curcio was credited with the breaking of the British Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) signal by which British aircraft would identify themselves to ground defences.
The map will now be sent for expert cleaning and conservation for eventual display at the Malta at War Museum in Vittoriosa.

Tokorozawa is a suburb of Tokyo. We spent most of the time there, staying with family. The area highlighted in green is where we went on a 2-day getaway with some of the family -- to a hot springs resort and other sights in the area.
From this map you can imagine how much reclamation was created. There is no Marina South at that time.
This is by far one of the most amazing builds in Second Life. Quality site, free maps and globes for the taking. An excellent video can be watched in the upstairs classroom. Then head off for an interactive experience finding your home on the huge map and putting a pin in place and immersing yourself in the terrain.
