There's a whole year of my life, captured in photographs. There it is. It seemed like such a daunting task at the start, but so very exciting. Things like that are probably the best, though. Things so potentially scary, you just have to go for it, and you know that you're going to finish it, know that you have what it takes to see it through. I've stumbled along the way, I've taken some bad, no, terrible photos, I've missed a few days, but I've tried my hardest to make up for them. There aren't 365 photos in the group though, due to some files having multiple days in, and there are two images I haven't uploaded yet. So there should be 361 in total.

 

Looking back through the images is so strange. They bring back a lot of memories. Good ones, bad ones. A lot of good ones, though. Snow Day. Seeing so many bands that I love, such as The Flaming Lips, Amanda Palmer, Queens of The Stone Age, Rage Against The Machine, Patrick Wolf, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Nine Inch Nails, Mogwai, Mono, Holy Fuck, Adam Green, Animal Collective, Seasick Steve, and that's just to name a few. Photographing my friends for my University coursework. Hanging out and relaxing with the people I love. Kissing someone for the first time. You probably know who you are. I hope you do.

 

I can pretty much remember how I felt when I took each photo.

 

Then, there were also the times where I had too much work to take a decent photo. Where I had done something stupid and didn't know how to make it better (this probably happened more times then it should have done). Bad times. But I cannot stress how much of a fantastic year I've had, really. So much fun. I've made some amazing friends that I probably don't deserve, and kept old friendships going strong.

 

I was going to try and summarise all of my photos into sections, but there's just too much variety to do that. So here are a few:

 

I've used ten different cameras. I'm in about sixty of the photos. There are ten shoe/foot photos (so much less than I thought there would be). About seventy one shots are of my friends. Fifty three were shot on film. A bunch were of animals <3. I've broken two lenses in the space of one year.

 

I've had so much fun doing this project. I don't think it would have been so good if it wasn't for the constant encouragement from my family and friends, both online and offline. This project was as much about me as it was about the people around me. If you've given me positive or negative criticism, feedback, been a model, been an inspiration, helped me with an idea or even just briefly commented on one of my photos in passing, then I cannot thank you enough.

 

I think I've written too much. I don't really mind. This project has been a major part of my life for an entire year. There is a bug on the inside of my laptop screen.

Here are ten of my favourite photos from my year:

 

Miranda

Forgotten

Forbidden Colours

Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion

Vintage Rocks

For the benefit of anyone who reads this, Miranda and I are not on good terms. I just thought it would be nice to say thanks to someone who helped me along the way at the start, even though we're not on good terms now

This fishing boat, Sea Breeze, suddenly appeared out of the fog from the ocean into the Noyo Harbor weighed down with the day's catch. I was a bit intriqued with what was in the baskets in back so zoomed in as he passed by. He was loaded with Sea Urchins, a delicacy of the ocean. After reading about Sea Urchins and their culinary contribution, I'm afraid I'm not a fan. I'll remember them more for the beautiful little sea creatures we found in the tide pools at McKerrichter State Beach.

The Night Porter... As U Like IT

 

Considered The Most Controversial Picture Of Our Time!

 

Set in 1957 Vienna, Liliana Cavani's film, The Night Porter is a disturbing, mesmerizing drama that viewers seem either to love or loathe. To be sure, this is not a film for everyone. Its subject matter is dark and difficult. The fascinating, if twisted, story is about the revival of an intense relationship that had started in a Nazi concentration camp – between Max, an SS officer and Lucia, one of the inmates.

 

Max is now, in 1957, a night porter in a hotel – the hotel that Lucia happens to visit with her. But when, at the opera, he looks at Lucia, and Lucia cannot resist turning her head to meet his gaze (and at a point in the opera where the words being sung are about how love sweetens troubles and all creatures sacrifice to love), Max, too, is drawn inexorably.

 

Despite what some reviewers seem to think, The Night Porter is absolutely not a skin flick, and nor is it a Nazi exploitation flick. It is a film about a relationship. It is about the power of a human connection and a little tenderness in an extreme situation – and about the power of extreme situations to create passion. It is about how intoxicating relationships having an element of control/power can be – and how intoxicating a mixture violence and loving tenderness can be. It is perhaps a warning about the all-consuming and potentially self-destructive power of an intense relationship.

 

The Night Porter has some very memorable scenes, and the acting of the main characters is superb. The subtlety and complexity of Charlotte Rampling's Lucia is staggering. It could have been played so badly, but Charlotte Rampling had the courage and the insight and the ability to give a breathtakingly brilliant performance, conveying strength as well as vulnerability, peacefulness as well as terror, intense desire as well as numbness, power and control as well as submission, lightness as well as darkness, heaven as well as hell.

Liliana Cavani has an eye for psychologically difficult and tension-increasing juxtapositions. In one scene, we hear Mozart's pure and heavenly music about the higher purpose of love and man and wife, while a concentration camp guard buggers a male prisoner, presumably not entirely consensually! In another scene, there is the eroticism of a topless dance together with the ghastly truth that the woman is dancing for the concentration camp guards who hold her and may one day execute her. In another, there is extreme violence mixed with passionate love.

Another summer day

Has come and gone away

In Paris and Rome

But I wanna go home

Mmmmmmmm

 

May be surrounded by

A million people I

Still feel all alone

I just wanna go home

Oh, I miss you, you know

 

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you

Each one a line or two

“I’m fine baby, how are you?”

Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough

My words were cold and flat

And you deserve more than that

 

Another aeroplane

Another sunny place

I’m lucky, I know

But I wanna go home

Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

 

Let me go home

I’m just too far from where you are

I wanna come home

 

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life

It’s like I just stepped outside

When everything was going right

And I know just why you could not

Come along with me

'Cause this was not your dream

But you always believed in me

 

Another winter day has come

And gone away

In even Paris and Rome

And I wanna go home

Let me go home

 

And I’m surrounded by

A million people I

Still feel all alone

Oh, let me go home

Oh, I miss you, you know

 

Let me go home

I’ve had my run

Baby, I’m done

I gotta go home

Let me go home

It will all be all right

I’ll be home tonight

I’m coming back home

Excerpt from www.lecinqueterre.org/eng/arte/vernaantiochia.php:

 

Legend has it that in ancient times, a small wooden box was found along the coast of Vernazza, containing the bones of a finger of Santa Margherita's hand. After shouting the miracle, the inhabitants decided to build a church in honor of the Saint in the district called Isolotto. A strong storm, however, dispersed the relic and it appeared only some time later, exactly where it was first found. The Vernazzesi then built the church there, overlooking the sea, where it is today.

 

More prosaically, the church of Santa Margherita d'Antiochia was built in the 13th century in the Gothic-Ligurian style by the Antelami Masters on a pre-existing Romanesque building. Mentioned for the first time in 1318, it stands on a rock overlooking the sea. The octagonal tower, 40 meters high, is crowned by small arches and ends with an ogival dome. Between 1500 and 1600 the church was enlarged, extending the hall by two bells per nave, to the detriment of the original medieval façade which was destroyed. In 1750, new works on the church led to the covering of the Romanesque interior with Baroque style coverings, also replacing the wooden roof with vaults and raising the bell tower. In more recent times, in the years 1964-1970, the church was partially restored with the original internal structure and recovering the exposed wooden roof.

 

The church has two entrances: the main one is more hidden and less easy to reach, and a more comfortable one, in one of the apses overlooking the tree-lined square in front of the marina, opened during the 19th century. The interior with three naves is raised above the level of the square. It houses two 17th century canvases, the Baroque high altar from 1750, an 18th century processional chest and a wooden crucifix attributed to Anton Maria Maragliano.

Another trip to Havskaaren. It takes about 20 minutes with a fast boat to reach this location in the local archipelago. It is one of my favorite locations for photographing seascapes.

 

It was a fairly friendly autumn evening but the sea was quite rough and the waves almost to big to enter the island. But, for good seascapes you have to try harder and we did. vandrende got wet by a large wave right after entering the shore and little later we had both wet feet after getting too close to those dangerously beautiful waves.

 

This was one of the last photos I shot. It was getting almost too dark and we had to get back to the mainland when I spotted this small stream of ocean water flowing in from the waves in the back. Shortly after this shot we were on our way back supported by the full moon light.

Closterium toxon es como todas las algas de este género un alga de sonrisa, cada una lleva su gesto, la de hoy no tan abierta como la de Closterium lunula ni tan fina como la Closterium acutum, pero a fin de cuentas también sonrisa.

 

Closterium toxon es de figura esbelta y tiene contorno de arco como su hermana Closterium dianae, pero es de trazos más rectos y angulosos que ella. Se trata de un désmido que, aunque muy frecuente en las aguas de la Laguna de Peñalara no parece estar presente en otras localidades de montaña del interior de la Península.

 

A lo largo de su interior, perfectamente orientados en línea se disponen de 12 a 14 pirenoides, que como en todos los désmidos, almacenan sustancias de reserva y rematan sus extremos dos pequeñas vacuolas cargadas de cristalitos con sales de calcio hacen de balancín, para que el alga se mantenga flotando en equilibrio y la sonrisa no se tuerza.

 

En esta ocasión Closterium ha venido acompañando a otras algas hermanas, estrellas acuáticas como Euastrum y Micrasterias con las muestras recogidas en unas praderas inundadas de las inmediaciones de la Laguna de Peñalara y como todos los seres encontrados en ellas va dedicada a todos estos amigos con quienes tuve la suerte de compartir este maravilloso proyecto de Biodiversidad virtual. La fotografía se ha tomado a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

I'm looking forward to when construction is completed . . . and it will be called Freedom Tower instead of Ground Zero . . . hopefully the new name will also signal a time when we understand that there's one Planet . . . and that we're all members of One Human Family . . . And I made this image on Easter Sunday . . . isn't that a good day to think of peace and unity?

Monday morning wake up knowing that youve got to go to school

Tell your mum what to expect, she says its right out of the blue

Do you went to work in debenhams, because thats what they expect

Start in lingerie, and doris is your supervisor

 

And the head said that you always were a queer one from the start

For careers you say you went to be remembered for your art

Your obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange

Making life-size models of the velvet underground in clay

 

In the queue for lunch they take the piss, youve got no appetite

And the rumour is you never go with boys and you are tight

So they jab you with a fork, you drop the tray and go berserk

While your cleaning up the mess the teachers looking up your skirt

 

Youve been used, youre confused

Write a song, Ill sing along

Are you calm? settle down

Soon you will know that you are sane

Youre on top of the world again

 

Monday morning wake up knowing that youve got to go to school

Mum said she had little choice when she was young, so why should you?

Do you went to work in c&a, cause thats what they expect

Move to ladieswear and take a feel off joe the storeman

 

Tell veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed

Shes got everything to gain cause shes a fat girl with a lisp

She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs

cause you cant afford a blazer and youre always wearing clogs

 

At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room

Heed of english gets you, asks you, what the hell do you think youre doing?

Do you think youre better then the other kids? well get outside.

Youve got permission, but youve got to make the bastard think hes right

En el Gobierno nacional amenazan a Mauricio Macri con responder a sus reclamos para que les traslade la jurisdicción sobre el Transporte en la Ciudad, con entregarle el Subte, pero sin los 400 millones de subsidios. Lo concreto es que más allá de las chicanas, acordaron crear una comisión que por 60 días evalúe y trate de acordar los temas en discusión. El Paseo del Bicentenario que reclamó Cristina.

“Si querés el Subte no hay problema, te lo damos ya, pero sin los subsidios”, cruzó al jefe de Gobierno porteño un ministro, en la reunión que mantuvo con la presidenta Cristina Kirchner, el ministro del Interior Florencio Randazzo y el jefe de Gabinete, Aníbal Fernández.

 

Como era previsible Macri se negó, pero la idea quedó rebotando en los principales despachos de Bolívar 1. Es que todas las líneas del subte porteño, que opera Metrovías, reciben un subsidio anual de unos 400 millones de pesos. Si se les quitara este auxilio la tarifa pasaría de $ 1,10 a 2,45 mínimo.

 

Pero en el gobierno porteño hay quienes se entusiasman con la idea y –halcones de la popularidad ajena- hasta se arriesgan a proponer una tarifa de $ 3, para hacer obras. No es poco dinero. El Subte mueve 1,5 millones de personas por día, a 50 personas por pasajeros por día, no cuesta imaginar la masa de dinero que rápidamente Macri podría conseguir para empezar a cumplir su promesa de extender la red de subtes, y que hoy le traba la Nación. El costo político de triplicar la tarifa es obvio.

 

“Esto tiene dos lecturas, sería una jugada demasiado audaz, no es del estilo de Macri. Pero un político transgresor podría aceptar los subtes sin subsidio, subir las tarifas, hacer las obras y quizás termina de Presidente”, arriesgó un experimentado operador del sector del Transporte.

 

En el gobierno nacional también hay halcones y palomas en este asunto. Medio en serio medio en broma, algunos proponer “tirarle el Subte por la cabeza a Macri”, sin subsidios, y luego que el jefe de Gobierno se vea obligado a subir la tarifa; hacer lo propio con colectivos y trenes de manera de empezar a aligerar la cada vez más insostenible carga fiscal de la montaña de subsidios que armó Ricardo Jaime.

 

Frente a esta posición, sectores mas moderados proponen ir aligerando por motus propio la carga de subsidios, de manera consensuada con Macri, combinándolo con graduales aumentos de tarifa, hasta llegar a un mix de tarifa y subsidios que sea aceptable para el jefe de Gobierno y ahí sí concretar la transferencia.

 

En esta línea se inscribe la decisión de crear una comisión mixta entre el gobierno nacional y el porteño, para intentar acordar en el término de 60 días la mayoría de los temas de competencias que enfrentan a ambas jurisdicciones, entre ellos el Subte.

 

Por parte del Gobierno de la Ciudad participarán de esta negociación que se está empezando a delinear, el jefe de Gabinete Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, y el ministro de Desarrollo Urbano, Daniel Chaín, del otro lado del mostrador lo esperará un viejo conocido, el actual secretario de Transporte, Juan Pablo Schiavi.

The rowans or mountain-ashes are shrubs or small trees in genus Sorbus of family Rosaceae. [...]. The name "rowan" is derived from the Old Norse name for the tree, raun. Linguists believe that the Norse name is ultimately derived from a proto-Germanic word *raudnian meaning "getting red" and which referred to the red foliage and red berries in the autumn. [...].

 

The best-known species is the European Rowan Sorbus aucuparia, a small tree typically 4-12 m tall growing in a variety of habitats throughout northern Europe and in mountains in southern Europe and southwest Asia. Its berries are a favourite food for many birds and are a traditional wild-collected food in Britain and Scandinavia. It is one of the hardiest European trees, occurring to 71° north in Vardø in Arctic Norway, and has also become widely naturalised in northern North America.

Some information on Deer Lake Park: Burnaby is a city which belongs to the Greater Vancouver area and is about 10-15 minutes from downtown Vancouver. Deer Lake is a relaxing 5 kilometre/3 mile walk around an urban lake just outside of Vancouver. The walking trail around the lake is good any time of year and is very popular with dog walkers in and around Burnaby. Trails in the park lead to a kids playground, washrooms, a boat launch and picnic tables. In the summer months Deer Lake Boat Rentals offers canoe, kayak and pedal boat rentals. Gas or electric motors are not allowed on this lake.

 

Deer Lake is also home to the Burnaby Art Gallery, Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, Burnaby Village Museum and Century Gardens. The Burnaby Art Gallery manages the City of Burnaby's permanent art collection while the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts is a multi-purpose community arts facility providing public exhibitions, performances, festivals and art classes. The Burnaby Village Museum depicts life in the area from the 1920's. They have reconstructed 31 full scale buildings over 10 acres, with staff in costumes like in the 1920's.

 

Deer Lake Park is a great place for outdoor activities and cultural life in Burnaby. Whether you want to visit an art gallery or see an outdoor concert, Deer Lake Park is the place you will find it. Your kids will love the park for the beach, the playground, the water activities and the Burnaby Village Museum. In the summer months the park comes alive with outdoor concerts and lake activities and in the off season it is a relaxing park to go for a quiet walk around the scenic trails.

Listen Look What You've Done - Jet

  

Jet es un grupo de rock de Melbourne, Australia. Su álbum debut fue Get Born, lanzado en 2003, y de él se han vendido más de 3.5 millones de copias por todo el mundo.

* Cameron Muncey (guitarra eléctrica y coros)

* Mark Wilson (bajo)

 

Los Hermanos Nic y Chris Cester decidieron formar una banda con Cameron Muncey y Mark Wilson en el 2001, mientras trabajaban en la misma fábrica, tomando como influencia a bandas como AC/DC, Queen, The Beatles, Oasis, The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Easybeats, The Faces, Sex Pistols, The Kinks, y T. Rex. Se bautizan como Jet por la canción de Paul McCartney del disco Band on the run. En el año 2002, la banda lanza su primer EP independenete, llamado Dirty Sweet, que fue grabado en la casa de uno de los miembros de la banda. La maqueta fue todo un éxito y el sello Elektra ofreció un contrato a la banda. El contrato con el sello permite a Jet grabar su primer disco, llamado Get Born, un gran homenaje al rock clásico que contó con la participación del legendario teclista Billy Preston, famoso por grabar al final de los años 60 con The Beatles y posteriormente con Eric Clapton y Rolling Stones. Este disco fue producido por Dave Sardy en los legendarios estudios Sunset Sound en Los Ángeles. La re-edición de este disco es publicada el 12 de abril de 2004 junto a un DVD con 5 temas en directo grabados en la sala Astoria de Londres. El segundo disco de la banda, titulado Shine On, fue lanzado en octubre del 2006 y grabado en Los Ángeles bajo la producción de Dave Sardy, quien antes había colaborado en la producción del primer disco de la banda. Jet empleó gran parte del 2005 y del 2006 en este álbum, en estudios de Melbourne y Massachussets. El proceso de grabación culminó el 2006 en los estudios Hillside Manor de Dave Sardy. El grupo grabó 20 canciones para este disco, pero 5 fueron descartadas.

This lovely sculpture is by the muse of Rodin, Camille Claudel. It has been widely described as a minor masterpiece and was conceived and executed while she and Rodin were lovers, though the affair ended badly and was a tragic foretelling of her future life. There was a beautiful orchestral piece of the same name written some 30 years later that expresses the piece quite well, though there is no link or view of any connected inspiration.

 

La Valse, un poème choréographique (a choreographic poem), is an orchestral work written by Maurice Ravel In his tribute to Ravel after the composer's death in 1937, Paul Landormy described the work as follows:

 

"....the most unexpected of the compositions of Ravel, revealing to us heretofore unexpected depths of Romanticism, power, vigor, and rapture in this musician whose expression is usually limited to the manifestations of an essentially classical genius".

The genus Agapanthus was established by L'Heritier in 1788. It used to be included in the Liliaceae (lily family), was then moved to the Amaryllidaceae (amaryllis and daffodil family), moved again into the Alliaceae (onion family) then back to Amaryllidaceae and now resides in its own family, the Agapanthaceae.

The name Agapanthus is derived from the Greek agapé love and anthos, flower. There is no clear reason for this derivation although it could be interpreted as 'lovely flower' or 'flower of love'. Agapeo means 'to be contented with' which is a possible derivation, i.e. 'flower with which I am well pleased'. The specific name praecox means early, premature, unseasonable or precocious in Latin, and was possibly given because compared to the other species it is an early flowerer; minimus means smallest, which it is; and orientalis of the east, which is most likely a case of mistaken origin. Quite often in those days, the ships carrying the new plant material back to Europe came from the East, via the Cape, and some of the botanists assumed that all the plants on board came from the East.

this is a spot in kefalari, kifisia, a bit of northern athens (on the map). it has a little roundabout where the cobblestone curves upwards towards the central green. it's quite pretty, with cafes, restaurants and a park, and people gathered to enjoy a particularly mild sunday afternoon.

 

i'd wanted to take a picture here for a few days now, but, now that i look at it again, i can't say i'm very happy with it... especially that awful blown out sky.

I swear I must be medically unstable or something, my stream is like a jumble or different crazy people all thrown together!

 

We managed to find a beach this evening and watched the sun set over the mountains, I think it has to be up there with one of the most stunning views I've ever seen. Sadly, it didn't entirely distract me from the fact that there was almost a foot of snow in places behind me and I had my feet in freezing water :P

 

The weather was amazing today, starting to wish I could ditch England and it's lovely rain :P I seem to be permanently boiling at the moment so am skiing in a tshirt, oh and the tomato tone facial state is getting increasingly worse :/ I'm going to have to start doing bw photos soon or something haha

 

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend :)

Pompholyxophrys es una ameba de nombre difícil y con aspecto de planeta marciano por su forma esférica y sus vivos colores de tierra.

 

A diferencia de Amoeba y de Mayorella de cuerpo informe y cambiante, Pompholyxophrys siempre es redonda. Ellas caminan echando todo su cuerpo a tierra y engullen así lo que encuentran a su paso cubriéndolo con su cuerpo de lava fría, sin embargo, Pompholyxophrys pasea de puntillas sobre sus pies-manos -filópodos- , como hilos de aire que apenas se ven.

 

El caminar de Pompholyxophrys es un caminar ingrávido, flotante… y no por su cuerpo de planeta. Su secreto está en el vestido que la adorna. Son burbujas de espuma, pero una espuma insólita de pompas de cristal. Las pequeñas esferas huecas de sílice recubren el cuerpo de Pompholyxophrys en varias capas y la hacen levitar sobre el fondo de las charcas donde vive al mismo tiempo que protegen su delicado cuerpo rojizo y blando.

 

Con frecuencia las amebas tienen que buscar protección recubriendo su cuerpo, unas veces lo hacen modelando una cubierta con partículas de mineral que encuentran en los fondos sobre los que pasean, en otras ocasiones fabrican una malla de escamas que les sirve de coraza. La Naturaleza nos sorprende en Pompholyxophrys, la ha vestido con un traje de pompas de cristal, que siendo más pesado que ella, la hace más ligera en los fondos del agua, incluso con finísimos pies de hilo esta ameba consigue caminar.

 

Pompholyxophrys vive en charcas y lagunas y se alimenta de pequeñas algas. Los colores rojizos y marcianos del interior de su cuerpo proceden de la degradación de los pigmentos de la fotosíntesis de estas algas que forman parte de su dieta.

 

Pompholyxophrys punicea ha sido hallada en las muestras recogidas en las inmediaciones de la Laguna de Peñalara durante el “Testing” organizado en Lozoya en homenaje a Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente y va dedicada a todos estos amigos con quienes tuve la suerte de compartir este maravilloso proyecto de Biodiversidad virtual. La fotografía se ha tomado a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

I am being such a lazy bastard with my China photo processing. I did this one a while ago and was waiting to upload it with a Ping'an rice field page for my blog, but since I have not been working on photos lately, I thought I would throw this into my stream.

 

I have to give credit to my wife for telling me I should try selective coloring with the baskets. I was going full B&W until she pointed that out. I think it made this shot 10 times better than the version I had put together.

 

I believe this is the result of a 3XP HDR shot with 1.33 EV spacing.

I know I said I am coming to the end of my Old Tukai Elephant series but I just realised there are a few more shots I would like to share here. I think I am experiencing some kind of inertia about moving over to other animals. I still have tons of photos I like and would love to upload, but I find myself transfixed by the elephants. And Amboseli skies. Does this happen to you guys? Do any of you think back to a particular photo adventure and find it difficult to move on from it?

 

This photo was in my deleted pile for the longest time as I didn’t like the way the elephants are spaced out, but when I looked at it yesterday night I fell in love with it. This photo is perhaps the most moody of all my Ol Tukai photos; the swirling rain clouds and the solemn elephants present an almost stoic picture. And I love the way their tusks always seem to glow in against their dark skin. Ironic isn’t it, their most impressive asset is also their most cursed

 

just playing around in photoshop a little....

  

because so many of you asked, here you can find the tutorial which I used to create the background water and the water with the reflection. the sense of motion mainly comes from the motion blur filter.

Oh yes, me too, today a moonshot to remember the 40th anniversary of the landing on the moon.

    

When it happened I was still on the moon to collect some beans before I was born one year later.

 

This spectacle was the reason, my parents bought a television.

      

The scenery you see here is the library of Angkor Wat in Cambodia.

 

It was full moon and I waited there for the sunrise.

 

Amazing place to see the moon going down and the sun going up.

 

Have a look at my set of the wonder of Cambodia.

ENGLISH

The Common Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes), also known as the Robust Chimpanzee, is a great ape. The name troglodytes, Greek for 'cave-dweller', was coined by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach in his Handbuch der Naturgeschichte (Handbook of Natural History) published in 1779. Colloquially, it is often called the chimpanzee (or simply 'chimp'), though technically this term refers to both species in the genus Pan: the Common Chimpanzee and the closely-related Bonobo, or Pygmy Chimpanzee.

 

Common Chimpanzees are found in the tropical forests and wet savannas of Western and Central Africa. They once inhabited most of this region, but their habitat has been dramatically reduced in recent years.

 

Human and Common Chimpanzee DNA is very similar. The DNA sequence differences between humans and chimpanzees is about thirty-five million single-nucleotide changes, five million insertion/deletion events, and various chromosomal rearrangements. Typical human and chimp protein homologs differ in only an average of two amino acids. About 30% of all human proteins are identical in sequence to the corresponding chimp protein. Duplications of small parts of chromosomes have been the major source of differences between human and chimp genetic material; about 2.7% of the corresponding modern genomes represent differences, produced by gene duplications or deletions, during the approximately four to six million years since humans and chimps diverged from their common evolutionary ancestor.

CASTELLANO

El chimpancé común (Pan troglodytes) es una especie perteneciente a los grandes simios. Los chimpancés son los parientes más cercanos al ser humano; su rama evolutiva se separó de la rama de los humanos hace aproximadamente 7 millones de años y comparten el 96% del ADN con ellos, lo que ha llevado a Jared Diamond a utilizar el término "el tercer chimpancé" para referirse a nuestra propia especie.

 

Podemos encontrar chimpancés en las selvas tropicales y sabanas húmedas de África central y occidental. Solían habitar la mayor parte de esta región, pero su hábitat ha sido drásticamente reducido en los últimos años.

 

Los chimpancés adultos pueden medir hasta 130 cm (hembras) y 160 cm (machos), y los adultos pesan entre 40 y 70 kg, aunque poseen una fuerza muy superior a la humana. Sus cuerpos están cubiertos por un pelaje grueso de color marrón oscuro, con excepción del rostro, dedos, palmas de la mano y plantas del pie. Tanto sus pulgares como el dedo grande del pie son oponibles, permitiendo un agarre preciso. La gestación del chimpancé dura ocho meses. Las crías son destetadas aproximadamente a la edad de tres años, pero generalmente mantienen una relación cercana con su madre por varios años más. La pubertad es alcanzada a la edad de ocho a diez años y su esperanza de vida es de 50 años en cautiverio.

On a summer day in 1944 . . . The Nazis came. They stayed only a few hours. When they had gone, the community which had lived for a thousand years. was dead.

This is Oradour-sur-Glane, in France. The day the Germans came, the villagers were gathered together. The men were taken to garages and barns, the women and children were led down this road and driven into the church. Here, they heard the firing as the men were shot. Then they were massacred too inside the church.

They never rebuilt Oradour. Its ruins are a memorial.

An amazingly powerful memorial.

Pope Benedict recently visited the United States and shared a message relevant to our country and our world. The quote below is only one small sample of his multifaceted message. But this small reference seems to fit this image of a beautiful flower, that continues to provide the beauty that was part of its creation, in spite of being "less than whole"... Our ways of seeing are often not His ways of seeing.

 

"The Gospel teaches us that true freedom, the freedom of the children of God, is found only in the self-surrender which is part of the mystery of love. Only by losing ourselves, the Lord tells us, do we truly find ourselves (cf. Lk 17:33). True freedom blossoms when we turn away from the burden of sin, which clouds our perceptions and weakens our resolve, and find the source of our ultimate happiness in him who is infinite love, infinite freedom, infinite life. "In his will is our peace". Real freedom, then, is God's gracious gift, the fruit of conversion to his truth, the truth which makes us free" (cf. Jn 8:32).

“It's very good jam,” said the Queen.

“Well, I don't want any TO-DAY, at any rate.”

“You couldn't have it if you DID want it,” the Queen said. “The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday--but never jam to-day.”

“It MUST come sometimes to "jam to-day,"“ Alice objected.

“No, it can't,' said the Queen. “It's jam every OTHER day: to-day isn't any OTHER day, you know.”

“I don't understand you,” said Alice. “It's dreadfully confusing!”

“That's the effect of living backwards,” the Queen said kindly: “it always makes one a little giddy at first--”

“Living backwards!” Alice repeated in great astonishment. “I never heard of such a thing!”

“--but there's one great advantage in it, that one’s memory works both ways.”

”I'm sure MINE only works one way,” Alice remarked. “I can't remember things before they happen.”

”It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards,” the Queen remarked.

[scritto nella mia agenda, il 21 marzo, mentre aspettavo con marcello davanti ai cancelli, l'apertura della seconda data]

 

AC/DC per la seconda volta, ad accompagnare gli stati d’animo un po’ assopiti dalla stanchezza, in un futuro molto prossimo largamente ripagati.

Il 19, prima cazzo di data, dopo una giornata stesa al sole, tremante, fremente, AGITATA sono corsa, una FOLLE CORSA sugli scalini verso l’inferno, AC/DC pensavo, e correvo sugli scalini, li facevo a 3 a 3, a 4 a 4, nessuno mi fermava, i muscoli fremevano e io andavo sempre più forte con un solo unico pensiero in testa; finiti gli scalini in salita, per una frazione di secondo ho visto il mondo dall’alto e ho un gridato un “CAZZO!!!” VENUTO DAL CUORE, MA NON C’ERA TEMPO, SONO RIPARTITA, le gambe vibravano, ho rischiato di cadere ed essere travolta, ma no, non è successo…ho corso, madonna se ho corso, vista la passerella e sorpassata, “L’ANGOLO TRA BRIAN E ANGUS era vuoto…SIIIIII, non ci credevo, ero lì, cazzo ero lì, butto la borsa, mi giro e vedo manu che correndo mi raggiunge, subito dietro Stè, C’ERAVAMO TUTTE!! Buttiamo le borse e urliamo gioia, lo staff guarda, capisce e sorride…CI SONO...mi chino sulla transenna, di spalle al resto delle persone che arrivavano stremate, mi chino e il pensiero va ad angelo, indosso avevo la sua maglietta, scendono due lacrime, sono forte, mi sonto forte, mi alza, SONO IN PRIMISSIMA FILA! Davanti ai miei occhi un maestoso ma umano palco, tutti i giochi degli AC/DC erano in fila pronti a essere usati, pronti ad essere acclamati, tutti gli show sono pronti ad accadere.

alle 8 in punto cominciano i "The Answer", un miscuglio tra Led Zeppelin ed AC/DC, bravi, da approfondire, ma vogliamo gli ac/dc....ok, ci siamo!

BUIO, si urla, nessuno si trattiene...nel megaschermo parte un'animazione con Angus sopra il "rock'n'roll train" che getta carbone per far andare più veloce, getta adrenalina....continua il video malizioso alla AC/DC, splendido!!

ESCONO....è IL DELIRIO...cominciano con "ROCK'N'ROLL TRAIN", poi, dopo "HELL AIN'T A BAD PLACE", si sente ta, tadada tadada, ta, tadada, tadada...BACK IN BLACKKKKKKK....a seguire Big Jack, bellissima dell'ultimo disco...e poi OI OI OI OI .....DIRTY DEEDS Done Dirt Cheap....SPLENDIDA DOSE DI ADRENALINAAA...mamma mia e pi l'assolo di Thunderstruck...non ci potevo credere, mani alzate e urla, mi provenivano dal fegato, non era la mia voce, non sentivo la mia voce, era Thunderstruck, la stavano facendo mio dio!!!

in "The Jack" mi hanno inquadrato nel megaschermo... ;) e poi ecco che cala la campana dell'inferno, tutti capiamo, tutti urliamo, urla disumane e il salto di quel quasi sessantaduenne che finisce sulla corda della campana, favoloso, esaltante...Hells Bells....

Hanno fatto T.N.T. ....la mia mente ora si stà annebbiando, non riesco a ricordare, a raccontare in modo lineare, mi emoziono, mi agito, tremo ancora, T.N.T. si...oddio non ho parole per descriverla, poi ROSIE, poi Let There Be Rock....breve, brevissima pausa per poi vedere fumo sul palco, tanto fumo e un piccolo Angus completo di corna salire da sotto il palco con la sua Diavoletto pronta a sbraitare...Highway to Hell....ceee...non si può immaginare esperienza migliore...infine per saluto ci regalano i cannoni con "For Those About to Rock We Salute You"...non ho piu parole, il ri-raccontare tutto mi ha fatto esaurire le poche forze rimaste...

Lo spogliarello, la pedana che si alza con Angus che rotola dentro imponendo un assolo maestoso...oddio oddio, le mie aspettative erano altissime ma loro le hanno superate travolgendo ogni cosa...

MI SONO VISTA GLI AC/DC....sono riuscita anche a prendere il plettro di Angus e la scaletta...mio dio, non ci credo ancora....
