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.)
Little chappy door handle with a PAX (peace) sash. Door handle to the Thistle Chapel, St. GIles' Cathedral, Edinburgh, Scotland.
Really like the Latin word "pax".

Better if you click on it.
Thank you.

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 nĆ£o, que bem me bastam
os portugueses! Esses facĆnoras de pĆ© na mĆ£o, esses
minhocas endomingados na semana
e tesos ao domingo.
Gregos de Ulisses, vale Ć© uma chama
acesa no altar da pƔtria.
Troianos . . . hĆ” Eneias, piedoso,
acartando nas costas o seu povo.
De Portugal, nĆ£o se fala, nem do Gama.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso nĆ£o, que bem me bastam
os portugueses!
Quero ver-me Ć© entre tahitianas,
Titiro manhoso, vendedor de flautas
e com elas convĆvio amenizado.
Quero Ʃ dar-me a Circe, enfeitiƧar-me
em cavernas simbĆ³licas
onde nĆ£o faltem os sobresselentes,
o simulacro, o ver de cĆ£o travado
pelo cheiro a carne quente.
PenƩlope esperou-me tanto tempo
que pode esperar mais, como Lisboa.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso nĆ£o, que bem me bastam
os portugueses!
Acertadas as contas, quero ver
se nĆ£o me engano.
Contra Ulisses, eu quero ser troiano.
Quero ter
viagem paga, um fim que dignifique,
uma toga, um palƔcio . . . tudo o que
justifique
minha precĆ”ria existĆŖncia
marcada pela traiĆ§Ć£o, pelo pavor
piloto morto, pelo sonhador, pelo incĆŖndio, pela lĆ”grima
de aligator . . .
Verdade, que hĆ” um cheiro lusitano . . .
Sou romano.
Aquilo que prometo nunca faƧo.
Mas dar-me a americanos, russos
e chineses, arre! isso nĆ£o, 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.
Odysseusā Greeks, well, fine, O.K., a flame
burning on the homeland's altar.
Trojans . . . thereās Aeneas, pious guy,
lugging all his people on his back.
Of Portugal, nothingās said, not even the name Da Gama.
But to give myself to Americans, Russians,
and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese
are bad enough!
Iād like to see myself among Tahitian girls,
Cunning Titiro, a seller of flutes,
living with them in soothed familiarity.
Iād 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, Iād like to see
if Iāve got it right.
Against Odysseus, Iād like to be a Trojan.
Iād 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!

Due anni fa, il 24 febbraio, l'invasione dell'Ucraina da parte della Russia. L'inizio di una guerra.
Non ho piĆ¹ riletto quello che avevo scritto allora, ma mi sembra di ricordare che le mie previsioni purtroppo erano giuste : tanto sangue, distruzione e una guerra senza speranza.
L'Ucraina meriterebbe di vincere, ha dimostrato grande forza e coraggio, ma la situazione purtroppo ĆØ stagnante e difficile. Si continua a parlare di vittoria, io gliela auguro, ma temo che ci sarĆ ancora grande spargimento di sangue e tante vite perse.
Si continua a non parlare di accordi diplomatici , ma forse era la via da intraprendere sin dall'inizio.
Sembra che prevalga nel mondo il Pub. Che non ĆØ il locale in cui si beve piacevolmente, ma il 'pensiero unico bellicista' .
La guerra non ĆØ l'unica soluzione, ĆØ solo quella che porta distruzione e povertĆ . Gli unici che ne sono arricchiti sono i produttori di armi, i veri signori della guerra.
E l'industria bellica sembra sia l'unica in espansione, in cui si investe un mare di soldi, tolti al benessere della popolazione

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.

PAX: Ist das heute wirklich und endlich ein FriedensgruĆ, der fĆ¼r alle Menschen gilt, auch fĆ¼r diejenigen, die einer anderen Religion angehƶren ? Steht nicht immer noch das Missionieren im Vordergrund ?
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 āvuluptous and all about curvesā. 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!

Violata Pax (the Wounded Dove) & The Frame by Nall
www.nall.org/pressimage/index.html
L' evento ĆØ 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 sarĆ 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 firmerĆ quelle de La Rondine per la 53Ā° 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 ĆØ affidata all'Architetto Alberto Bartalini. Tra le opere in mostra, la cornice in bronzo dal grande valore simbolico, una forma particolarmente cara allļæ½artista, 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'umanitĆ e che si ĆØ sviluppato attraverso 5 tappe che hanno condotto le sue opere attraverso l'Italia, l'Europa e gli Stati Uniti. La grande cornice ĆØ 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.

Week 51/52, 2016
This weekās theme for my 52 project is āPAX.ā I wanted to look for a peaceful setting for my photo. A snow-covered cemetery would have been perfect, but itās hard for me to visit cemeteries right now. This is a small park close to home. I liked the snow on the benches and the warm sunlight shining on the townhouses in the background.
Since iĀ“m not only a construction toy designer,
but also an artist with a need of output from time to time
i combined a few things this time.
This contest
rebrick.lego.com/en-US/BottomMenu/Blog/061812-ReBrick-Bui...
gave me the final push to get a new Graffiti style done.
Also my good friend Niko you is responsable for this neat website
gave me some good thoughts about sealife lately.
At the end i only used a little voodoo to get it all together.
This song also might be the perfect soundtrack to listen to while watching the picture ;)

Each one that to see this image leaves a peace message the nationsā¦ and to repass to its contactsā¦
Paz Ć© geralmente definida como um estado de calma ou tranquilidade, uma ausĆŖncia de perturbaƧƵes ou agitaĆ§Ć£o. Derivada do latim Pacem = Pax, Absentia Belli, pode referir-se Ć ausĆŖncia de violĆŖncia ou guerra. Neste sentido, a paz entre naƧƵes, e dentro delas, Ć© o objetivo assumido de muitas organizaƧƵes, designadamente a ONU.
No plano pessoal, paz designa um estado de espĆrito isento de ira, desconfianƧa e de um modo geral todos os sentimentos negativos. Assim, ela Ć© desejada por cada pessoa para si prĆ³prio e, eventualmente, para os outros, ao ponto de se ter tornado uma frequente saudaĆ§Ć£o (que a paz esteja contigo) e um objetivo de vida.
