At Douaumont ossuary - the last resting place for at least 130 000 unknown French and German soldiers who died at the battle of Verdun ('The Hell of Verdun', raging for 300 days - February 21 to December 1916) where some 230 000 persons lost their lives. You can't really wrap your head around that number, nor the fact that more than half of them never even could be identified.
The ossuary faces the largest French First World War cemetery with 16 142 graves.
The word PAX is written above the door in. (And as you might guess, photography is not allowed inside.)
No AI!

Quai de L'Escaut, Le Havre (France).
La cloche de ce beffroi rythma le travail des dockers de 1911 à 1962, date à laquelle le nouveau statut des dockers amena à la construction d'un nouveau local d'embauche.Ce beffroi a rythmé les journées de travail du port, en sonnant 14 fois par jour, de 6h30 à 23h.Le campanile octogonal, qui portait l’inscription « Pax et Labor » ne sonne plus aujourd’hui. La tour conservée, constitue un repère géographique et historique du quartier de l’Eure, elle témoigne des modes de travail portuaire avant la mécanisation et la conteneurisation.

Really like the Latin word "pax".

I have seen the inside of Amsterdam houses that were dotted like this, never the outside; well, come to think of it, maybe a coffeeshop or two ...

PAX LUSITANICA
Ora se bem me lembro bem bastava
ter que me dar a gregos e troianos.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam
os portugueses! Esses facínoras de pé na mão, esses
minhocas endomingados na semana
e tesos ao domingo.
Gregos de Ulisses, vale é uma chama
acesa no altar da pátria.
Troianos . . . há Eneias, piedoso,
acartando nas costas o seu povo.
De Portugal, não se fala, nem do Gama.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam
os portugueses!
Quero ver-me é entre tahitianas,
Titiro manhoso, vendedor de flautas
e com elas convívio amenizado.
Quero é dar-me a Circe, enfeitiçar-me
em cavernas simbólicas
onde não faltem os sobresselentes,
o simulacro, o ver de cão travado
pelo cheiro a carne quente.
Penélope esperou-me tanto tempo
que pode esperar mais, como Lisboa.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam
os portugueses!
Acertadas as contas, quero ver
se não me engano.
Contra Ulisses, eu quero ser troiano.
Quero ter
viagem paga, um fim que dignifique,
uma toga, um palácio . . . tudo o que
justifique
minha precária existência
marcada pela traição, pelo pavor
piloto morto, pelo sonhador, pelo incêndio, pela lágrima
de aligator . . .
Verdade, que há um cheiro lusitano . . .
Sou romano.
Aquilo que prometo nunca faço.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem
me bastam os portugueses!

PAX LUSITANICA
Well, if I remember right it was bad enough
having to give myself to Greeks and Trojans.
But to give myself to Americans, Russians,
and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese
are bad enough! Those
strutting thugs, those
tiny worms in Sunday-best all week
and then flat-broke on Sundays.
Odysseus’ Greeks, well, fine, O.K., a flame
burning on the homeland's altar.
Trojans . . . there’s Aeneas, pious guy,
lugging all his people on his back.
Of Portugal, nothing’s said, not even the name Da Gama.
But to give myself to Americans, Russians,
and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese
are bad enough!
I’d like to see myself among Tahitian girls,
Cunning Titiro, a seller of flutes,
living with them in soothed familiarity.
I’d like to give myself to Circe, get bewitched
in symbolic caverns
suffering no dearth of provender,
with a simulacrum, the vision of a dog fettered
by smell to the warm flesh.
Penelope has waited so long for me
she can, like Lisbon, wait a little longer.
But to give myself to Americans, Russians,
and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese
are bad enough!
My affairs in order, I’d like to see
if I’ve got it right.
Against Odysseus, I’d like to be a Trojan.
I’d like to have
my trip for free, an end that dignifies,
a toga, a palace . . . all that might
justify
my precarious existence
marked by treason, dread,
the pilot dead, by the dreamer, fire, an alligator
tear . . .
True, there is a Lusitanian smell . . .
I am a Roman.
What I promise, I never do.
But to give myself to Americans, Russians,
and Chinese, arghh!, not that, the Portuguese
are bad enough!

I finally got her some lime Brainworm chips and switched out the icky olive ones. These suit her so much better!
Now...do I get her lips repainted or not? That's the only thing that I'm still iffy about with her. Otherwise I think she is perfect.
Built in 1936 in Kalundborg, Denmark, PAX is a 28 ft spidsgatter with a 51 ft mast . She is a double-ender that her owner desribes as “vuluptous and all about curves”. That includes a gorgeous rudder that follows the canoe-like stern. The spidsgatter was a racing class begun in the mid-1920s as sail clubs across Denmark sought to expand opportunities for families to sail together. The boats were fast, ocean-worthy (modeled after North Sea fish boat designs), had lots of volume below (beamy) and were relatively inexpensive to build .The sail number S45 denotes her original racing rating for the class carrying 45 square meters of sail. For more details: kacicronkhite.com/spidsgatter-pax-port-townsend/ Kaci Cronkhite's book, Finding PAX, is very well written. I found it a moving tale of the many folks the loved and cared for this beautiful saiboat.

Tourists take photographs in the square when it is crossed by a birth. Piazza San Pietro is a large plaza located directly in front of St. Peter's Basilicain the Vatican City, the papal enclave inside Rome. Both the square and the basilica are named after Saint Peter, an apostle of Jesus and the first Catholic Pope.
At the centre of the square is an ancient Egyptian obelisk, erected at the current site in 1586. Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the square almost 100 years later, including the massive Tuscan colonnades, four columns deep, which embrace visitors in "the maternal arms of Mother Church". A granite fountain constructed by Bernini in 1675 matches another fountain designed by Carlo Maderno in 1613.

If you're headed to PAX Melbourne tomorrow, I will be one of the guests, and making an appearance at the Bethesda booth 12-2pm.
It's no secret I'm a big videogame geek, and Doom is a big fave in this house. So the chance to get early access to 'Rip and tear until it is done'? Yeah. I'm excited.
And there's some other stuff too, including a themed restaurants, cool art, some special giveaways, all the cosplayers, and of course the photo ops.
Anyway, head down to the Bethesda booth, check it out, and hope to see y'all there.
It's going to be AWESOME!
"At the beginning of the new year I offer good wishes to each and all for serenity and prosperity, but especially for peace. Sadly, the year now ending has again been marked by persecution, discrimination, terrible acts of violence and religious intolerance."
"Peace is a gift of God and at the same time a task which is never fully completed."
Wish you all, the most peaceful 2012!

Violata Pax (the Wounded Dove) & The Frame by Nall
www.nall.org/pressimage/index.html
L' evento è organizzato nell'ambito di un percorso avviato nel 2001 e che utilizza gli spazi del principale Aeroporto Toscano, una delle maggiori porte della Toscana, ha come scopo quello di valorizzare la divulgazione dell'arte contemporanea attraverso la fusione con il linguaggio musicale di Giacomo Puccini.
Dal 2001 infatti, l'Aeroporto di Pisa ha accolto il Progetto Scolpire l'Opera del Festival Puccini di Torre del Lago per il quale grandi protagonisti del panorama artistico contemporaneo firmano la realizzazione di scenografie che si trasformano in veri e propri capolavori. Dopo aver ospitato le esposizioni di Kan Yasuda autore per il Festival Puccini dell'allestimento di Madama Butterfly nel 2000, di Pietro Cascella che ha firmato nel 2004 Turandot, e di Igor Mitoraj che nel 2006 ha disegnato le scene di Tosca, L'Aeroporto di Pisa sarà il luogo ideale per apprezzare le opere dell'artista americano Nall che nel 2005 ha realizzato le scene per il bellissimo allestimento di Fanciulla del West e che firmerà quelle de La Rondine per la 53° Edizione del Festival di Torre del Lago.
Oltre a frammenti e parti di scena tratti da La Fanciulla del West e ai bozzetti delle scenografie de La Rondine, che trasformeranno lo scalo pisano in un grande palcoscenico, verranno esposte, opere suggestive che rappresentano i tratti peculiari dello stile di Nall riconoscibile per l'utilizzo di materiali eterogenei, coloratissime tessere di mosaico, pezzi di vetro e specchio, legno, pittura, oggetti della vita quotidiana carichi di misteriosi significati. La regia dell'esposizione è affidata all'Architetto Alberto Bartalini. Tra le opere in mostra, la cornice in bronzo dal grande valore simbolico, una forma particolarmente cara all�artista, che ritorna nel suo lavoro come un segno distintivo.
La grande cornice, insieme alla colomba ferita, sono state protagoniste nell'estate 2006 del percorso espositivo dal titolo Violata pax con il quale l'artista statunitense ha voluto denunciare le ferite dell'umanità e che si è sviluppato attraverso 5 tappe che hanno condotto le sue opere attraverso l'Italia, l'Europa e gli Stati Uniti. La grande cornice è stata esposta ad Assisi di fronte alla Basilica Inferiore oltre che a Pietrasanta in piazza del Duomo e donata poi dalla Fondazione Festival Pucciniano al Principe Alberto II di Monaco e collocata sul Belvedere del Principato. E da Violata Pax all'aeroporto anche la grande colomba in bronzo, di 3 metri di altezza, icona e simbolo della pace che l'uomo ha violato e ferito.
