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.)
PIEDRA DE SAN MARTÍN,
así se conoce a la muga 262,entre el Valle del Roncal y el
Valle francés de Baretous"
Cada 13 de julio se celebra el TRIBUTO DE LAS TRES VACAS,

Por disputas y peleas , en el uso de los pastos y aguas, de
los roncaleses y los del valle de Baretous.Acordaron el
tributo de las tres vacas.

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!

Due anni fa, il 24 febbraio, l'invasione dell'Ucraina da parte della Russia. L'inizio di una guerra.
Non ho più 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 è stagnante e difficile. Si continua a parlare di vittoria, io gliela auguro, ma temo che ci sarà 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 è il locale in cui si beve piacevolmente, ma il 'pensiero unico bellicista' .
La guerra non è l'unica soluzione, è solo quella che porta distruzione e povertà. 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

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.

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.
Week 51/52, 2016
This week’s theme for my 52 project is “PAX.” I wanted to look for a peaceful setting for my photo. A snow-covered cemetery would have been perfect, but it’s 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 i´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 ;)

Cada um que ver esta imagem deixe uma mensagem de paz as nações...E repasse aos seus contatos...
Each one that to see this image leaves a peace message the nations… and to repass to its contacts…
Paz é geralmente definida como um estado de calma ou tranquilidade, uma ausência de perturbações ou agitação. Derivada do latim Pacem = Pax, Absentia Belli, pode referir-se à ausência de violência ou guerra. Neste sentido, a paz entre nações, e dentro delas, é o objetivo assumido de muitas organizações, designadamente a ONU.
No plano pessoal, paz designa um estado de espírito isento de ira, desconfiança e de um modo geral todos os sentimentos negativos. Assim, ela é desejada por cada pessoa para si próprio e, eventualmente, para os outros, ao ponto de se ter tornado uma frequente saudação (que a paz esteja contigo) e um objetivo de vida.
One sees these all over the northern portion of South Korea--long-abandoned machine-gun placements. I have enjoyed walking off the paths and exploring the woods in both Gyeonggi and Gangwon provinces and I see these a lot. Then, one day (duuuu!) it dawned on me that this piece of real estate had been fought over ferociously for five years and----didn't they use mines back then?... of course they used mines!
This thought came to me one day deep in the woods. Nice. Now I started wondering about just how thoroughly the South Koreans went through the 38,000 square miles that make up their country ensuring that there were no hidden mines anywhere at all. This, in a country that boasts 29,444 square miles of forests.
From what I could find out from old-timers the place was heavily mined and the government did a hell of a good job getting rid of them. Still...
I mean how can you really be sure and who wants to find out the hard way? It is not too hard to imagine Army crews pretty much covering every single path in the entire nation--and even that would be a real task. But did they actually go off-trail and climb up hills with their mine detecting gear checking every square inch of hills, ravines, canyons, streams, etc? Of course they didn't!
Yet, despite what I personally believe (that there are innumerable undiscovered mines still buried all over South Korea) in my ten years here I have never once heard of anyone being killed or injured by one. One thing that I have noticed in all my hiking: Koreans stay on the paths. I'm sure not ALL of them do because there are a lot of ginseng hunters and they do go off-path. But they are the only ones I have seen doing so. Anyway, I am a "when your number's up it's up" guy and so I haven't given up leaving the trails when it suits me.
Anyone interested in the mine problem in South Korea can get more information here:

Chambers Bay Golf Course as taken from the Grandview Trail not far from the North Meadow, in University Place, Washington. This is looking toward McNeil Island, where you can see the dock at the island's tip (left side). Also, in the center of this shot is the only tree on the course, and after having been viciously attcked last month, will recover!
Lone Fir is fast becoming the most identifiable feature of Chambers Bay Golf Course.
