- John Mayer, The Heart of Life
Tomorrow is a tough anniversary for a very good friend of mine. You know her as Feeling Croppy. Tara is an immeasureably strong woman. But tomorrow will test her. It's the anniversary of her father's death. And I wanted to take a photo for her to make sure she knows she's not alone. But I wasn't sure whether I would have time to take one tomorrow since I'll be in depositions all day. So I'm jumping the gun and doing this a day early.
Tara, deal with this anniversary in the best way you know how. I can't pretend to have the ability to take away the hurt or anger over losing your dad so suddenly. But I want you know that I'm here. Always. For anything. Just like I know you are for me and for so many of your friends. I'll be thinking about you all day tomorrow and sending you big, solid, hearty bear hugs from afar. For what it's worth, and I know you don't necessarily believe in an afterlife or what have you, but I do believe your father is still with you and I can't imagine he's anything other than immensely proud of the woman you are today.
Love you, T.

En la zona limítrofe de las provincias argentinas de Jujuy y Salta existe un salar con un área de 212 km² extendido latitudinalmente denominado Salinas Grandes, tales salinas se extienden por el sector llamado Puna Jujeña (aunque en parte sea salteña) en los departamentos jujeño de Tumbaya y el salteño de La Poma, encontrándose el centro del salar próximo a las coordenadas 23°38′S 66°05′O, a una altitud promedio de 3.450 msnm. Pese a lo elevado de tal altitud, las Salinas Grandes de Jujuy y Salta, son prácticamente el nivel de base de una cuenca endorreica que se continua hacia el norte en las Lagunas de Guayatayoc, lagunas fuertemente saladas y alcalínicas. Estas salinas tienen como límite que le separan de la Quebrada de Humahuaca la sierra del Chañi por el sur y el este, mientras que por el norte y el oeste sus límites se hacen más difusos en el desierto de la Puna Salada. El origen de las Salinas Grandes de Jujuy y Salta data de un extenso periodo ubicado temporalmente entre 5 y 10 millones de años antes del presente, en tal extendido plazo la cuenca de este salar se cubrió de aguas con gran cantidad de sales provenientes de la actividad volcánica, la evaporación paulatina de tales aguas saladas continentales dio origen a este salar que posee una costra cuyo espesor promedio es de 30 centímetros.

HBM!
Sorry I missed last week!
I was having computer problems (again).
But it's all straightened out now, and I should be good for a while *fingers crossed*
Anyways, This is one of the many benches around campus here.
I wasn't sure what my Bench Monday picture would be today, since I had an idea, but wasn't able to execute it.
But this worked out rather nicely I feel.
I hope you all had a great start to the week and a great rest of the week!
:D

PLEASE KEEP PRAYING FOR MY FRIEND ANDREW! (He's doing so much better!! Thanks for all your prayers!)
I've travelled from Texas
To Old Loussianne
Through mountains and valleys and plains
Footsore and weary
I rested a while
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
The fairest young maiden
That I ever saw passed by when it started to rain
We both found a shelter
Beneath the same tree
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
I ventured a smile but she thought I was bold
I hastened to try and explain
Somehow I knew I would linger a while
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
We hid from the shower and hour or so
She asked me how long I'd remain
I told her I spend the rest of my days
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
As time drifted by we fell deeper in love
A love that would just bring her pain
I knew that one day I would leave her alone
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
I just couldn't tell her that I ran away
From a jail on the West Texas plain
I prayed in my heart I would never be found
To the banks of old Pontchartrain
Then one day a man put a hand on my arm
Said I must go west the same day
I said I couldn't without saying goodbye
On the banks of old Pontchartrain
Tonight I sit here alone in my cell
I know that she is waiting in vain
And hoping and praying someday to return
On the banks of old Pontchartrain

Oohhhhhhhhhhhhh yesterday was my lucky day..I no longer have OWL ENVY lol ;) I happened upon this owl and OWL FAMILY yesterday on my walk..WOOHOO I was thrilled to be able to watch and shoot for hours. Here this one is even WINKING at me lol Don't you just love it? This is my first wild owl sighting. I found the Mother and Father and several wee ones..The Mother and wee ones were deep in the branches and hard to shoot..however with all those eyes watching me they didn't seem to mind..I think this is an Eastern Screech-Owl. (Thanks to IPS for giving me the correct id) I have so many photos but this one was my favourite of the day..........ENJOY! For the record this photo is NOT CROPPED! This was my best birding encounter so far.
"The trilling song on one pitch, sometimes known as the Bounce Song, is used by members of a pair or a family to keep in contact. The male will trill to advertise a nest site, court the female, and when arriving at a nest with food. The descending Whinny is used in territory defense. The songs usually are uttered separately, but sometimes are heard together."
"The Eastern Screech Owl was first described by Carolus Linnaeus (the Swedish naturalist who developed binomial nomenclature to classify and organise plants and animals), who classified it in 1758. The word "Asio" is attributed to Pliny the Elder in his "Naturalis Historia" around 77 AD, and is Latin for 'Horned Owl'. Eastern Screech Owls have also been called the common screech Owl, Ghost Owl, Dusk Owl, Little-eared Owl, Spirit Owl, Little Dukelet, Texas Screech-Owl, whickering Owl, little gray Owl, mottled Owl, the red Owl, the mouse Owl, the cat Owl, the shivering Owl, and the little horned Owl."
The Eastern Screech Owl is a small, nocturnal, woodland Owl. There are two colour morphs, a gray phase and a reddish-brown phase.
Adult (gray phase) - facial disks dusky white with fine gray-brown mottling, bordered by black. The iris is bright yellow and the bill is gray-green, with tufts of bristly feathers around its base. Overall gray-brown, with gray narrow vertical stripes, bars, and spots on underparts, and barred wings and tail - legs light cinnamon buff, and toes are yellow.
"
Adult (red phase) - similar pattern to gray phase except cinnamon instead of gray - face plain light cinnamon - whitish superciliary and loral plumage.
Juvenile (gray phase) - similar to adults but indistinct stripes and bars more patterned - many feathers tipped with white Juvenile (red phase) - grayish brown, but distinctly rufescent colour overall - bars and stripes less distinct than adults.
Eastern Screech-Owls can be confused with Western Screech-Owls. One way to tell the difference is the bill colour - Eastern Screech Owls have gray-green bills while Western Screech Owls have gray to black bills. They can also be distinguished by their different calls, and only occur together locally in eastern Colorado and southern Texas."
Best viewed LARGE. Have a great weekend everyone! :)
I wish we had beautiful blue skies here too... this shot would've looked so awesome then.

This is the most significant portrait work of Pavel Fedotov. As in other works. The artist combines portrait and genre tasks. He recreates in detail the environment in which the model resides, introduces the action - playing the piano. But he seemed to interrupt this game, turning the girl’s head and gaze towards the viewer, distracting the model from the lesson.
A girl in a blue dress and a white apron is depicted at the time of the performance of the piano piece: her eyebrows are raised slightly in surprise, the seriousness in her eyes is muffled by a slight smile on her lips. With the help of certain compositional techniques, the artist allows the viewer to feel the character and mood of his model.
The girl appears before us in all the complexity of her spiritual being, during the period of awakening of feelings, purposeful movement to the future. Her gaze expresses the complex spiritual interweaving. It has both confidence and alertness, a desire to let an outside observer into the world of one’s feelings and, at the same time, isolate oneself from it. It testifies that the very soul of young Zhdanovich is still in formation, in the process of formation.
The neutral background is slightly highlighted around the figure, creating a feeling of a light-air environment and at the same time emphasizing its central position on the canvas. The portrait is notable for its directness and craftsmanship. Despite the miniature, the painting is bold and energetic. The head and arms are especially clearly molded. The characteristics of the face indicate strength, passion, liveliness and, at the same time, the softness of the character of the model. The rich linear and black-and-white rhythm of the canvas, restrained pastel colors in clothes and the workshop's transmission of the texture of the tree with soft colors gives rise to a feeling of calm and home comfort.
Such girls from good Russian families became Decembrists and Democrats, they were devoted to the end to their beloved person, and to a great deed, but they could also live a decent ordinary life without sacrificing the principles of morality and spirituality, spreading the light around them of your soul. That is how Nadezhda Petrovna Zhdanovich spent her long life. Zhdanovich Nadezhda Petrovna (1836 - 1915) - daughter P.V. Zhdanovich and his second wife, O.P. Zhdanovich. She was brought up in the Imperial Educational Society of Noble Maidens at Smolny, released in 1854. She was married to an officer of the Finnish regiment A.I. Werner, later general from infantry.
She owned a collection of Fedotov’s works, autographs of his poems, she carefully kept about forty letters of Fedotov (they disappeared somewhere in historical storms) and his drawings, which at the end of days, already in the midst of the First World War, transferred to the Russian Museum.
Nadenka Zhdanovich Fedotov knew very little, three or four years ago he made paired watercolor portraits of her and her sister Olya, painting both in the same red dresses with bare hands (the first one was preserved, the second one disappeared). Even then, in a teenage girl with a serious look, he guessed the character that was now quite evident in a young girl-institute: purity without hypocrisy, femininity without hypocrisy, dignity without arrogance, liveliness without coquetry, mind without pedantry, modesty without pejorativeness.
How many years have already passed, and her ashes have long decayed, and on a tiny Fedotov canvas, this pearl of Russian painting, everyone glows and will shine wonderful blue eyes and a light smile that do not conceal any riddles except a simple but eternal riddle of enchanting female charms.
No matter how beautiful the earlier, earlier portraits of Fedotov were beautiful in their own way, in none of them, perhaps, he could not have reached such a height as in the portrait of Nadenka Zhdanovich

Living in Southern California has some real advantages, like visiting Laguna Beach. I took this photo from the outdoor patio of a fabulous restaurant there - what a view!
In this photo I used Photoshop filter Fractalius to enhance the original with a "painterly" effect. (The original photo is below in the comments section.)
INFORMATION ON LAGUNA BEACH, CALIFORNIA:
Laguna Beach includes 7 miles of coastline with some of Southern California most scenic beaches and coves you'll find along the Southern California coast. The best tide pools, diving opportunities, and best sunsets on this region of California coast are right in Laguna Beach. Home to mansions and quaint cottages that line bluffs above the sandy coves, for over 100 years, tourists have flocked to a little piece of paradise to scuba dive, to paint the colors of nature which seem more vibrant there and to enjoy natural beauty not seen elsewhere. Laguna Beach enjoys healthy tourism with over 3 million visitors each year. Note: These numbers do not factor in local day visitors within a close radius to Laguna Beach.
Laguna Beach holds the distinction of having one of the greatest number of localized beaches of any city on the California coast. The list includes the northern beaches of Irvine Cove, Crescent Bay, Shaw's Cove, Boat Canyon, Diver's Cove, Picnic Beach and Rockpile. Central Beaches include Main Beach, Sleepy Hollow, St. Ann's Street, Thalia Street, Oak Street, Brook's Street and Mountain Road Beach. Southern Laguna Beach (South Laguna Beach) beaches include Bluebird Canyon, Pearl Street, Wood's Cove, Moss Point, Rockledge, Victoria Beach and Treasure Island. Guarded by a premier force of lifeguards, Laguna Beaches are operated under the City of Laguna Beach Lifeguard Services. www.lblg.org
What's unique about the Laguna Beach beaches are their tourist and hotel friendly locations. With properties constructed on and near the beach before the California Coastal Commission regulations changed the building permit process, you'll see some spectacular hotel and resorts sitting on cliffs above the ocean in South Orange County. That's why tourists love visiting and staying overnight in Laguna Beach. You can park your car and walk down to the on location beach at many hotels, or walk downtown to the great shops, restaurants and art galleries. Of all the Orange County cities that range from San Clemente, Dana Point, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Seal Beach, Sunset Beach and Surfside, Laguna Beach offers the most beach hotel rooms directly on the sand without crossing Pacific Coast Highway. Montage, the newest resort property, is spectacular with its views, pools, lawns and beaches that are open to the public. You'll be hard pressed to find a more luxurious resort destination than Laguna Beach.
Laguna got its name long ago from the Ute-Azteca Indian word for lakes, Lagonas. Spaniards who arrived later called it Canada de las Lagunas (Canyon of the Lakes) and in 1904, the area became known as Laguna Beach.
Around the same time artist Norman St. Clair traveled from Los Angeles to capture the scenery on canvas. His artist friends were so impressed with his paintings and reports of a balmy year-round climate that they joined him. (He and his wife actually lived in Laguna off and on prior to 1912.) The plein-air artists who painted in the style of French impressionists, settled and by the late 1920’s, half of the residents were artists.
Following the artists came the Hollywood film makers who found Laguna to be every bit as appealing on the silver screen as it was painted on canvas. Many of Hollywood’s famous stars like Bette Davis, Mary Pickford, Judy Garland, Rudolph Valentino, Charlie Chaplin and Mickey Rooney maintained homes in Laguna Beach.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt and John Steinbeck also went to Laguna for inspiration and relaxation, frequenting landmarks like the White House and the Cabrillo Ballroom.
Laguna’s universal allure is best expressed on a famous gate built in 1935 (which still
stands on the corner of Forest and Park Avenues); it reads “This gate hangs well and
hinders none, refresh and rest, then travel on.”

A fragment of an 8th century Quran on display at the Sacred Exhibition at the British Library in London. The free exhibition is open daily till Sept 23rd and is a collection of some of the most important Islamic, Christian and Jewish texts and objects.
Muslims believe that the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad by the Angel Gabriel over a period of 22 years, the significance being a gradual revelation which transformed an evil Arab society into one which received wisdom and guidance. It was completed before Muhammad died in 632 AD though during his lifetime it was written down by his scribes as well as memorised by the massess (as at that time memorisation was the common method for learning/ narration).
This fragment from the 8th century is one of the earliest and has great significance. For in the 20th century a Munich University Institute collected 42,000 different and rare copies of the Quran including various Islamic manuscripts and printed texts covering a period of 1,300 years (i.e. since it was revealed to Muhammad). Research on these rare texts was carried out for over half a century and aside from the odd copyist error which was easy to determine, not a single variance was discovered in the text. Both the Institute and the entire collection were destroyed by Allied bombing in the war.

Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi
Following, a text, in english, from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi or "Fountain of the Four Rivers" is a fountain in Rome, Italy, located in the Piazza Navona. Designed by Gianlorenzo Bernini, it is emblematic of the dynamic and dramatic effects sought by High Baroque artists. It was erected in 1651 in front of the church of Sant'Agnese in Agone, and yards from the Pamphilj Palace belonging to this fountain's patron, Innocent X (1644-1655).
The four gods on the corners of the fountain represent the four major rivers of the world known at the time: the Nile, Danube, Ganges, and Plate. The design of each god figure has symbolic importance.
Design
Bernini's design was selected in competition. The circumstances of his victory are described as follows:
So strong was the sinister influence of the rivals of Bernini on the mind of Innocent that when he planned to set up in Piazza Navona the great obelisk brought to Rome by the Emperor Caracalla, which had been buried for a long time at Capo di Bove for the adornment of a magnificent fountain, the Pope had designs made by the leading architects of Rome without an order for one to Bernini. Prince Niccolò Ludovisi, whose wife was niece to the pope, persuaded Bernini to prepare a model, and arrange for it to be secretly installed in a room in the Palazzo Pamphili that the Pope had to pass. When the meal was finished, seeing such a noble creation, he stopped almost in ecstasy. Being prince of the keenest judgment and the loftiest ideas, after admiring it, said: “This is a trick … It will be necessary to employ Bernini in spite of those who do not wish it, for he who desires not to use Bernini’s designs, must take care not to see them.”
Paraphrase from Filippo Baldinucci, The life of Cavaliere Bernini (1682)
Public fountains in Rome served multiple purposes: first, they were highly needed sources of water for neighbors in the centuries prior to home plumbing. Second, they were monuments to the papal patrons. Earlier Bernini fountains had been the Fountain of the Triton in Piazza Barberini, the fountain of the Moor in the southern end of Piazza Navona erected during the Barberini papacy, and the Neptune and Triton for Villa Montalto, whose statuary now resides at Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
Each has animals and plants that further carry forth the identification, and each carries a certain number of allegories and metaphors with it. The Ganges carries a long oar, representing the river's navigability. The Nile's head is draped with a loose piece of cloth, meaning that no one at that time knew exactly where the Nile's source was. The Danube touches the Papal coat of arms, since it is the large river closest to Rome. And the Río de la Plata is sitting on a pile of coins, a symbol of the riches America could offer to Europe (the word plata means silver in Spanish). Also, the Río de la Plata looks scared by a snake, showing rich men's fear that their money could be stolen. Each is a river god, semi-prostrate, in awe of the central tower, epitomized by the slender Egyptian obelisk (built for the Roman Serapeum in AD 81), symbolizing by Papal power surmounted by the Pamphili symbol (dove). In addition, the fountain is a theater in the round, a spectacle of action, that can be strolled around. Water flows and splashes from a jagged and pierced mountainous disorder of travertine marble. A legend, common with tour-guides, is that Bernini positioned the cowering Rio de la Plata River as if the sculpture was fearing the facade of the church of Sant'Agnese by his rival Borromini could crumble against him; in fact, the fountain was completed several years before Borromini began work on the church.
The dynamic fusion of architecture and sculpture made this fountain revolutionary when compared to prior Roman projects, such as the stilted designs Acqua Felice and Paola by Fontana in Piazza San Bernardo (1585-87) or the customary embellished geometric floral-shaped basin below a jet of water such as the Fontanina in Piazza Campitelli (1589) by Giacomo della Porta.
Unveiling
he Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi was unveiled to the populace of Rome on 12 June 1651. According to a report from the time, an event was organised to draw people to the Piazza Navona. Beforehand, wooden scaffolding, overlaid with curtains, had hidden the fountain, though probably not the obelisk, which would have given people an idea that something was being built, but the precise details were unknown. Once unveiled, the full majesty of the fountain would be apparent, which the celebrations were designed to advertise. The festival was paid for by the Pamphili family, to be specific, Innocent X, who had sponsored the erection of the fountain. The most conspicuous item on the Pamphili crest, an olive branch, was brandished by the performers who took part in the event.
The author of the report, Antonio Bernal, takes his readers through the hours leading up to the unveiling. The celebrations were announced by a woman, dressed as the allegorical character of Fame, being paraded around the streets of Rome on a carriage or float. She was sumptuously dressed, with wings attached to her back and a long trumpet in her hand. Bernal notes that "she went gracefully through all the streets and all the districts that are found among the seven hills of Rome, often blowing the round bronze [the trumpet], and urging everyone to make their way to that famous Piazza." A second carriage followed her; this time another woman was dressed as the allegorical figure of Curiosity. According to the report, she continued exhorting the people to go towards the piazza. Bernal describes the clamour and noise of the people as they discussed the upcoming event.
The report is actually less detailed about the process of publicly unveiling the fountain. However, it does give ample descriptions of the responses of the spectators who had gathered in the Piazza. Once there, Bernal notes, the citizens of the city were overwhelmed by the massive fountain, with its huge life-like figures. The report mentions the "enraptured souls" of the population, the fountain, which "gushes out a wealth of silvery treasures" causing "no little wonder" in the onlookers. Bernal then continues to describe the fountain, making continuous reference to the seeming naturalism of the figures and its astonishing effect on those in the piazza.
The making of the fountain was met by opposition by the people of Rome for several reasons. First, Innocent X had the fountain built at public expense during the intense famine of 1646-48. Throughout the construction of the fountain, the city murmurred and talk of riot was in the air. Pasquinade writers protested the construction of the fountain in September 1648 by attaching hand-written invectives on the stone blocks used to make the obelisk. These pasquinades read, "We do not want Obelisks and Fountains, It is bread that we want. Bread, Bread, Bread!" Innocent quickly had the authors arrested, and disguised spies patrol the Pasquino statue and Piazza Navona
The streetvendors of the market also opposed the construction of the fountain, as Innocent X expelled them from the piazza. The Pamphilij pope believed they detracted from the magnificence of the square. The vendors refused to move, and the papal police had to chase them from the piazza. Roman Jews, in particular, lamented the closing of the Navona, since they were allowed to sell used articles of clothing there at the Wednesday market.
Navona Square (Piazza Navona).
Following, a text, in english, from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Piazza Navona is a city square in Rome, Italy. It is built on the site of the Stadium of Domitian, built in first century AD, and follows the form of the open space of the stadium.[1] The ancient Romans came there to watch the agones ("games"), and hence it was known as 'Circus Agonalis' (competition arena). It is believed that over time the name changed to 'in agone' to 'navone' and eventually to 'navona'.
Defined as a public space in the last years of 15th century, when the city market was transferred to it from the Campidoglio, the Piazza Navona is a significant example of Baroque Roman architecture and art. It features sculptural and architectural creations: in the center stands the famous Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi or Fountain of the Four Rivers (1651) by Gian Lorenzo Bernini; the church of Sant'Agnese in Agone by Francesco Borromini and Girolamo Rainaldi; and the Pamphilj palace also by Rainaldi and which features the gallery frescoed by Pietro da Cortona.
The Piazza Navona has two additional fountains: at the southern end is the Fontana del Moro with a basin and four Tritons sculpted by Giacomo della Porta (1575) to which, in 1673, Bernini added a statue of a Moor, or African, wrestling with a dolphin, and at the northern end is the Fountain of Neptune (1574) created by Giacomo della Porta. The statue of Neptune in the northern fountain, the work of Antonio Della Bitta, was added in 1878 to make that fountain more symmetrical with La Fontana del Moro in the south.
At the southwest end of the piazza is the ancient 'speaking' statue of Pasquino. Erected in 1501, Romans could leave lampoons or derogatory social commentary attached to the statue.
During its history, the piazza has hosted theatrical events and other ephemeral activities. From 1652 until 1866, when the festival was suppressed, it was flooded on every Saturday and Sunday in August in elaborate celebrations of the Pamphilj family. The pavement level was raised in the 19th century and the market was moved again in 1869 to the nearby Campo de' Fiori. A Christmas market is held in the piazza.
Other monuments on the Piazza Navona are:
Stabilimenti Spagnoli
Palazzo de Cupis
Palazzo Torres Massimo Lancellotti
Church of Nostra Signora del Sacro Cuore
Palazzo Braschi (Museo di Roma)
Sant'Agnese in Agone
Literature and films
The piazza is featured in Dan Brown's 2000 thriller Angels and Demons, in which the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi "The Fountain of the four rivers"(the Danube, the Gange, the Nile and the River Plate) is listed as one of the Altars of Science. During June 2008, Ron Howard directed several scenes of the film adaptation of Angels and Demons on the southern section of the Piazza Navona, featuring Tom Hanks.
The piazza is featured in several scenes of director Mike Nichols' 1970 adaptation of Joseph Heller's novel, Catch-22.
The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi was used in the 1990 film Coins in the Fountain. The characters threw coins into the fountain as they made wishes. The Trevi Fountain was used in the 1954 version of the film.
A Fontana Dei Quattro Fiumi, é maior das três fontes, localizada no centro da praça. Na fonte dos rios, Bernini projetou quatro estátuas representando os rios dos quatro continentes: o Nilo, o Danúbio, o rio da Prata e o Ganges. As estátuas estão montadas sobre um obelisco egípcio, sendo circundadas por leões e outros animais fantásticos, tendo no cume uma pomba em bronze, símbolo da paz no mundo e da família Pamphili. Para realçar a rivalidade entre Bernini e Borromini, que fez a igreja de Santa Agnese, os romanos criaram uma lenda em torno da fonte dos rios, que fica em frente a esta igreja. Segundo os romanos, as estátuas duvidam da solidez do projeto de Borromini. A que retrata o rio da Prata, tem a mão erguida, a proteger o corpo do desabamento da igreja; a que retrata o Nilo, traz a cabeça coberta por um véu, a recusar a ver a obra de Borromini.
A seguir um texto, em português, da Wikipédia a Enciclopédia Livre:
Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi
Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fonte dos Quatro Rios), foi esculpida por Gian Lorenzo Bernini entre 1648 e 1651, artista do barroco italiano, foi concebida por uma ordem do Papa Inocencio X o Papa da familia Pamphili, cujo tinha sua casa nesta praça.
Esta localizada na Praça de Navona, em Roma. Ela representa os quatro principais continentes do mundo cortados por seus principais rios: Rio Nilo, na África; Rio Ganges, na Ásia, Rio da Prata, na América e o Rio Danúbio, na Europa.
A seguir, texto em português do site Wiki lingue:
A escultura da Fonte dos Quatro Rios, encontra-se na Piazza Navona de Roma (Itália) e foi criada e talhada pelo escultor e pintor Gian Lorenzo Bernini em 1651 baixo o papado de Inocencio X, em plena época barroca, durante o período mais prolífico do genial artista e cerca da que em outro tempo fué a Chiesa dei San Giacomo de gli Spagnoli
A fonte compõe-se de uma base formada de uma grande piscina elíptica, coroada em seu centro de uma grande mole de mármol, sobre a qual se eleva um obelisco egípcio de época romana, o obelisco de Domiciano .
As estátuas que compõem a fonte, têm umas dimensões maiores que na realidade e são alegorias dos quatro rios principais da Terra (Nilo, Ganges, Danubio, Rio da Prata), a cada um deles em um dos continentes conhecidos na época. Na fonte a cada um destes rios está representado por um gigante de mármol .
As árvores e as plantas que emergem da água e que se encontram entre as rochas, também estão em uma escala maior que na realidade. Os animais e vegetales, gerados de uma natureza boa e útil, pertencem a espécies grandes e potentes (como o leão, cavalo, cocodrilo, serpente, dragão, etc.). O espectador, girando em torno da fonte, descobre novas formas que dantes estavam escondidas ou cobertas pela massa rocosa. Com esta obra, Bernini quer suscitar admiração em quem olha-a, criando um pequeno universo em movimento a imitação do espaço da realidade natural.
A fonte foi submetida a restauração, um trabalho que se deu por concluído em dezembro de 2008. Constitui um dos palcos finque da novela e o filme Anjos e Demónios, à qual é arrojado um dos cardeais sequestrados, e Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) se lança à água para lhe salvar.
Os animais da fonte
A fonte apresenta figuras de sete animais, além de uma pequena pomba e o emblema dos Pamphili. Para poder observá-las basta com dar uma volta ao redor da fonte. As figuras são: um cavalo, uma serpente de terra (na parte mais alta, cerca do obelisco), uma serpente de mar, um delfín (que funciona também como desagüe), um cocodrilo, um leão e um dragão. Notar também a vegetación esculpida que parece real.
Praça Navona.
A seguir, um texto em português, da Wikipédia a Enciclopédia livre:
A Praça Navona (em italiano: Piazza Navona) é uma das mais célebres praças de Roma. A sua forma assemelha-se à dos antigos estádios da Roma Antiga, seguindo a planificação do Estádio de Domiciano (também denominado entre os italianos de Campomarzio, em virtude da natureza rude e esforçada dos exercícios - manejo de armas - e desportos atléticos que aí se realizavam). Albergaria até 20 mil espectadores sentados nas bancadas. A origem do nome deve-se ao nome pomposo que lhe foi dado ao tempo do Imperador Domiciano (imperador entre 81-96 d.c.): "Circo Agonístico" (do étimo grego Agonia, que significa precisamente - exercício, luta, combate). Actualmente o nome corresponde à corruptela da forma posterior in agone, depois nagone e finalmente navone, que por mero acaso significa também "grande navio" na língua italiana.
As casas que entretanto e com o passar dos anos foram sendo construídas sobre as bancadas, delimitariam e circunscreveriam até à actualidade o tão afamado Circo Agonístico.
A Navona passou de fato a caracterizar-se como praça nos últimos anos do século XV, quando o mercado da cidade foi transferido do Capitólio para aí. Foi remodelada para um estilo monumental por vontade do Papa Inocêncio X, da família Pamphili e é motivo de orgulho da cidade de Roma durante o período barroco. Sofreu intervenções de Gian Lorenzo Bernini (a famosa Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fonte dos Quatro Rios, 1651) ao centro); de Francesco Borromini e Girolamo Gainaldi (a igreja de Sant'Agnese in Agone); e de Pietro de Cortona, que pintou a galeria no Palácio Pamphilj, sede da embaixada do Brasil na Itália desde 1920.
O mercado tradicional voltou a ser transferido em 1869 para o Campo de' Fiori, embora a praça mantenha também um papel fundamental em servir de palco para espectáculos de teatro e corridas de cavalos. A partir de 1652, em todos os Sábados e Domingos de Agosto, a praça tornava-se num lago para celebrar a própria família Pamphili.
A praça dispõe ainda duas outras fontes esculpidas por Giacomo della Porta - a Fontana di Nettuno (1574), na área norte da praça, e a Fontana del Moro (1576), na área sul.
Na extremidade norte da praça, por debaixo dos edifícios, foram postas a descoberto ruínas antiquíssimas, a uma cota muito abaixo da actual, comprovando a primeva utilização daquele imenso terreiro. Outros monumentos com entrada para a praça:
Stabilimenti Spagnoli
Palazzo de Cupis
Palazzo Torres Massimo Lancellotti
Church of Nostra Signora del Sacro Cuore
Curiosidades
Na Piazza Navona, está localizado o Palazzo Pamphilj, propriedade da República Federativa do Brasil, sede da Embaixada Brasileira e da Missão Diplomática do Brasil para a Itália.
So ... didn't I swear myself that I won't crawl around in the wet grass after the rain, not me? ---
Severe thunder storms, hail and a tornado in the Lower Austria yesterday afternoon; the storms claimed two lives even (an older Herr died at an heart attackt, a 52-years old woman drowned in a creek that had grown to a raging river in the shortest time). Here, we had just rain.
Kas ma mitte ei lubanud endale, et ma ei lähe pärast vihma märja rohu sisse roomama, mina mitte ... ? ---
Eile olid Ida-Austrias rängad äiksetormid, rahe tegi Weinviertelis ja Künklikus Maailmas palju pahandust ning Klosterneuburgi kandis möllas isegi üks tornaado. Üks vanem mees sai erutusest infarkti ja üks 52-aastane naine uppus ojja, millest oli hetkede jooksul saanud märatsev jõgi (tahtis veepumpa kohendada). Lugematud keldrid said jälle ujutada.
Meil siin kuiva koha peal oli ainult päev otsa õhk väga raske ja pärastlõunal sadas põhjalikult. Vihmase ilma lõpp ei paista.
Situata nella parte sud-occidentale della Basilicata, la Valle prende il nome dal fiume Agri ed è una delle valli più belle e caratteristiche dell'Italia Meridionale.
La forma della valle è quella di un'ampia varice, circondata dai rilievi montuosi, e presenta ambienti e zone molto diversificate.
I centri abitati sono posti sulle colline situate lungo la parte iniziale del tragitto del fiume (lungo 136 Km) che nasce alle pendici del monte Volturino e sfocia in mare nei pressi di Policoro.
La zona è dominata da due monti: il Volturino (1856 m.) ed il Monte di Viggiano (1725 m.) sul quale ha sede il Santuario della Madonna di Viggiano, uno dei più noti di tutta l'Italia Meridionale.
Le bellezze naturali in Val d'Agri sono innumerevoli; degne di nota sono la faggeta del Volturino, ricchissima di fiori di bosco come i ciclamini rosso scuro, l'agrifoglio, i gigli rossi ed i narcisi; la faggeta di Moliterno dagli alberi imponenti e i castagneti di Tramutola.

Allí estaba en la esquina de una mesa del restaurante de Antequera..
así lo vi...
así quise plasmar el recuerdo de su fría y corta vida...
sin haber conocido líquido que refrescar....
sin haber sido utilizado y derretido como juguete erótico.. festivo...
que lástima tan chico..
tan claro y transparente...
¿será la lluvia que cáe en la calle parte de su espiritu reencarnado..?..
Hasta siempre....cubito..
PD.
La cabeza ida, lo siento, son las amenazas de venganza de Pakito Ruiz que hacen que me encuentre regular..
sin sentirme las piernas....
Todo comenzó por la flecha roja en el agua
There it was in the corner of a table of the restaurant of Antequera...
thus I saw…
thus I wanted to shape the memory of its cold one and cuts life…
without to have known that liquid to refresh….
without to be used and to be melted like erotic toy...
that so small pity...
so clearly and it is transparent…
it will be the rain that falls in the street leaves from its reincarnated spirit?...
Until always....cube.
PS.
The head going, I feel, it, are the threats of revenge of Pakito Ruiz who cause that she finds me to regulate....
without feeling the legs to me….

Land's End in Cornwall is regarded as the best clifftop vista in the whole of Brittain. I haven't seen it but I can tell you that Sound in Isle of Man is not far behind. There are some spectacular spots and if time and light permit I'll explore them all. This spot gives a view over the western shore. Took this shot on a spring afternoon just in time before the clouds rolled in.

Tell me, what is half so sweet
As a baby's tiny feet,
Pink and dainty as can be,
Like a coral from the sea?
It is morning and she lies
Uttering her happy cries,
While her little hands reach out
For the feet that fly about.
Then I go to her and blow
Laughter out of every toe;
Hold her high and let her place
Tiny footprints on my face.
Little feet that do not know
Where the winding roadways go,
Little feet that never tire,
Feel the stones or trudge the mire,
Still too pink and still too small
To do anything but crawl,
Thinking all their wanderings fair,
Filled with wonders everywhere.
Little feet, so rich with charm,
May you never come to harm.
As I bend and proudly blow
Laughter out of every toe,
This pray, that God above
Shall protect you with His love,
And shall guide those little feet
Safely down life's broader street

Israel delays aid trucks from Egypt to Gaza "France sent technical equipment to help Gazans draw water from the ground. The Swiss sent blankets and plastic tarps. Mercy Corps, a relief agency, sent 12 truckloads of food. And on Tuesday all of it, including dozens of other trucks carrying sugar, rice, flour, juice and baby formula, sat in the hot sun here going nowhere."
"All our lunchmeat, it's all going to go bad," said Abdullah "We have trucks we loaded up five days ago still sitting here, waiting." said said Hany.
At the United Nations, John Holmes, an emergency relief coordinator, said the scale of the destruction meant that far more than the current movement of aid was needed urgently. "Enough will always be allowed in for people to exist, but not enough for the conditions for people to live,"

La garza blanca o garceta grande (Ardea alba) es una especie de ave Ciconiiforme de la familia Ardeidae. Es una de las garzas más ampliamente distribuidas por el mundo.
Descripción
La garza blanca es un ave grande de plumaje blanco que puede alcanzar el metro de altura y pesar arriba de 950 gramos. Es ligeramente menor a la garza ceniza (A. herodias). Además del tamaño, la garza blanca puede diferenciarse de otras garzas del mismo color por el pico amarillo y las patas negras, aunque el pico puede tornarse más oscuro y las patas más claras en la estación de cría. En el plumaje de cría, delicadas plumas ornamentales salen de la espalda. Machos y hembras son idénticos en apariencia.
Posee un vuelo lento, con el cuello retraído. Esto es característico de garzas y avetoros, y es lo que los distingue de cigüeñas, grullas, ibis y espátulas, que mantienen el cuello extendido al volar.
Comportamiento
La garza blanca es parcialmente migratoria; las aves del hemisferio norte provenientes de áreas de inviernos fríos se desplazan hacia el sur. Se alimenta en aguas poco profundas o hábitats más secos, alimentándose principalmente de peces, ranas, pequeños mamíferos, y ocasionalmente aves pequeñas y reptiles, atrapándolos con su pico largo y afilado, la mayor parte del tiempo quedándose quieta y dejando que la presa se acerque hasta poder alcanzarlas con el pico, que utiliza como arpón. A menudo esperará inmóvil a la presa, o caminará lentamente hacia ella. Es una especie común, normalmente fácil de ver. Reproducción
Se reproduce en colonias en árboles cercanos a lagos de juncos o humedales. Forma el nido con palos pequeños secos entrelazados con juncos y totoras, y colocando generalmente entre 3 y 5 huevos de color celeste claro.
Amenaza
En Norteamérica un gran número de garzas fueron asesinadas alrededor de finales del siglo XIX, para usar sus plumas para decorar sombreros. Su población se ha recuperado desde entonces como resultado de las medidas de conservación. Su rango se ha extendido hacia el norte, hasta el sur de Canadá. Sin embargo, en algunas partes del sur de Estados Unidos, su número ha disminuido debido a la pérdida de su hábitat. Aún así, se adapta bien al hábitat humano y puede ser fácilmente vista cerca de los humedales y cuerpos de agua en zonas urbanas y suburbanas.
The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a bird of prey found in North America. It is the national bird and symbol of the United States of America. This sea eagle has two known sub-species and forms a species pair with the White-tailed Eagle. Its range includes most of Canada and Alaska, all of the contiguous United States, and northern Mexico. It is found near large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply and old-growth trees for nesting.
The species was on the brink of extirpation in the continental United States (while flourishing in much of Alaska and Canada) late in the 20th century, but now has a stable population and has been officially removed from the U.S. federal government's list of endangered species. The Bald Eagle was officially reclassified from "Endangered" to "Threatened" on July 12, 1995 by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.
On July 6, 1999, a proposal was initiated "To Remove the Bald Eagle in the Lower 48 States From the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife." It was de-listed on June 28, 2007.
Bald eagles are not actually bald, the name deriving from the older meaning of the word, "white headed".

Taraxacum ( /təˈræksəkʉm/) is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. They are native to Eurasia and North America, and two species, T. officinale and T. erythrospermum, are found as weeds worldwide.[1] Both species are edible in their entirety.[2] The common name dandelion (/ˈdændɨlaɪ.ən/ dan-di-ly-ən, from French dent-de-lion, meaning lion's tooth) is given to members of the genus, and like other members of the Asteraceae family, they have very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret. Many Taraxacum species produce seeds asexually by apomixis, where the seeds are produced without pollination, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.

There is no great big ending, no sunset in the sky
There is no string ensemble, and she doesn't even cry
And just as I begin to say that we should make another try
She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye
There is no big explosion, no tempest in the tea
The world does not stop turning round, there's no big tragedy
Sitting in a coffee shop with cheesecake and some apple pie
She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye
Good-bye, said so easily, Good-bye, said so quietly
Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye,
just two always strangers avoid each other's eyes
One still make believing, one still telling lies,
she tells me that I'm not to blame
But when I ask the reason why
She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye
Good-bye, said so easily. Good-bye, said so quietly
Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye
She reaches out across the table looks at me and quietly says good-bye
Good-bye (she quietly says) / sung by Frank Sinatra

I Ching and the genetic code -
or how to heal the consciousness of the cell.
[ ... ] It wants to expand it discovered many similarities, which I represent in brief and yet some others.
1. Each genetic codon consists of 3 amino acid pairs.
A hexagram in the I Ching consists of 3 line pairs
The chaos research discovered that there is an order in the chaos. Life
developed after the so-called Period 3
2. A DNA molecule is inter alia of 4 nitrogen bases, the basic building blocks
the entire genetic code form. These are adenine, thymine, guanine
and cytosine.
The I Ching consists of the two polarities of Yin and Yang will be permanently
Change are understood and the changing yin and which
wandelndem yang.
In oriental medicine (acupuncture, acupressure) are the four elements
Metal (yang), earth (yin), fire (the changing yang) and water (the
changing yin), together with the wood element, the basis for the
Energy medicine and all other energetic healing methods.
3. Of the four nitrogen bases form the genetic code 2, a
fixed pair that is connected to 2 different ways.
It connects to adenine with thymine and cytosine with guanine.
Three pairs of genetic information result in a unit, whether or codon
Triplet called. These 3 couples can register for a total of 64 different
Codons or triplets (= units of information) interconnect. This
creates the diversity of human life, but also in animal and
plant life. The diversity of creation is based on these
Nitrogen bases.
When I Ching, there are the broken and the solid line on 4
are different ways to form a solid pair of linked
Three of these pairs form a hexagram. This results in the 64
Hexagrams of the I Ching, each with a wisdom and guidance for the
Life of the enlightened people in different situations.
Include Fire, water, earth, metal: Each of these basic elements is equivalent to 2
Channel pairs, a yin and a yang meridian. The Yin meridians show how
that energy applied to the people, the Yang meridians, as he
responds to the outside.
4. The genetic code is a double helix that we are in a
winding rope ladder can compare. The strands are from a 5
C sugar and phosphates, the rungs of this ladder of the nitrogen bases
the codons formed. This double helix is self-contained, has
is no definable beginning and no definable end. The beginning
and the end of a sequence of information is called off and
Stop codons appear.
The I Ching is also known as the Book of Changes. It describes
processes in human life, it as cyclical, always
recurring cycles recognizes that with the right attitude
and approach is not helpless. Again, there are
Hexagrams, the right of the beginning or the end or change
information of enterprises.
Among the four basic elements are used in Eastern medicine more than 5
Element of the wood element, which stands for vitality, and the
Protection system that allows the 5 elements, their shape and structure
and keep to keep them under different conditions of life, added. Man
they could thus also with the strands of the conductor and the basic elements
compare their shoots. Here too, the working of the life energy meridians
as cyclical, often embedded in a circuit. Those
the treatment and healing with the energy meridians or
Energy points aligned.
Of the hexagrams of the I Ching can be direct connections to the
Elements in Eastern medicine and acupuncture meridians to certain
(= Channel in which life energy flows) produce. [...]

I Ging und genetischer Code –
oder wie man das Bewußtsein der Zelle heilen kann.
[…] Dabei entdeckte sie viele verschiedene Gemeinsamkeiten, die ich im Folgenden kurz darstellen und noch um einige andere erweitern möchte.
1. Jedes genetische Codon besteht aus 3 Aminosäure-Paaren.
Ein Hexagramm im I Ging besteht aus 3 Strichpaaren
Die Chaosforschung entdeckte, daß es im Chaos eine Ordnung gibt. Leben
entwickelt sich nach der so genannten Periode 3
2. Ein DNA-Molekül besteht u.a. aus 4 Stickstoffbasen, die die Grundbausteine
des gesamten genetischen Codes bilden. Dies sind Adenin, Thymin, Guanin
und Cytosin.
Das I Ging besteht aus den beiden Polaritäten Yin, und Yang die in ständigem
Wandel begriffen sind und dem sich wandelnden yin und dem sich
wandelndem yang.
In der östlichen Medizin (Akupunktur, Akupressur) bilden die 4 Elemente
Metall (yang), Erde (yin), Feuer (das sich wandelnde yang) und Wasser (das
sich wandelnde yin) zusammen mit dem Holz-Element die Basis für die
Energiemedizin und alle anderen energetischen Heilweisen.
3. Von den vier Stickstoffbasen des genetischen Codes bilden 2 jeweils ein
feststehendes Paar, das auf 2 verschiedene Weisen verbunden ist.
Es verbindet sich Adenin mit Thymin und Guanin mit Cytosin.
Drei Paare ergeben eine genetische Informationseinheit, auch Codon oder
Triplet genannt. Diese 3 Paare können sich zu insgesamt 64 verschiedenen
Codons oder Triplets (= Informationseinheiten) miteinander verbinden. Daraus
entsteht die Vielfalt des menschlichen Lebens, aber auch des tierischen und
pflanzlichen Lebens. Die Vielfalt der Schöpfung basiert auf diesen
Stickstoffbasen.
Beim I Ging gibt es die unterbrochene und die durchgezogene Linie, die auf 4
verschiedene Weisen zu einem festen Paar verknüpft werden
Drei dieser Paare ergeben ein Hexagramm. Dadurch entstehen die 64
Hexagramme des I Ging, die jeweils eine Weisheit und eine Anleitung für die
Lebensweise des erleuchteten Menschen in unterschiedlichen Lebenslagen
beinhalten.
Feuer; Wasser; Erde; Metall: Jedem dieser Grundelemente entsprechen 2
Meridianpaare, ein yin und ein yang Meridian. Die Yin Meridiane zeigen, wie
die jeweilige Energie auf den Menschen einwirkt, die Yang Meridiane, wie er
darauf nach außen reagiert.
4. Der genetische Code bildet eine Doppelhelix, die wir mit einer in sich
gewundenen Strickleiter vergleichen können. Die Stränge werden von einem 5
C Zucker und Phosphaten, die Sprossen dieser Leiter von den Stickstoffbasen
der Codons gebildet. Diese Doppelhelix ist jedoch in sich geschlossen, besitzt
also keinen definierbaren Anfang und kein definierbares Ende. Der Anfang
und das Ende einer Informationssequenz wird durch so genannte Start und
Stop Codons angezeigt.
Das I Ging wird auch als das Buch der Wandlungen bezeichnet. Es beschreibt
die Abläufe im menschlichen Leben, die es als zyklische, immer
wiederkehrende Kreisläufe erkennt, denen man mit der rechten Einstellung
und Herangehensweise nicht hilflos ausgeliefert ist. Auch hier gibt es
Hexagramme, die über den rechten Beginn oder den Abschluss bzw. Wandel
von Unternehmungen informieren.
Zu den 4 Grundelementen kommen in der östlichen Medizin noch als 5.
Element das Holz-Element, das für Lebendigkeit steht, sowie das
Schutzsystem, das den 5 Elementen ermöglicht ihre Form und Struktur zu
bewahren und unter verschiedenen Lebensbedingungen zu halten, hinzu. Man
könnte sie also auch mit den Strängen der Leiter und die Grundelemente mit
ihren Sprossen vergleichen. Auch hier wird das Wirken der Lebensenergiemeridiane
als zyklisch, in einem Kreislauf eingebettet angesehen. Danach ist
auch die Behandlung und Heilung mit den Energiemeridianen oder
Energiepunkten ausgerichtet.
Von den Hexagrammen des I Ging kann man direkte Verbindungen zu den
Elementen in der östlichen Medizin und damit zu bestimmten Akupunkturmeridianen
(= Bahnen in denen unsere Lebensenergie fließt) herstellen. […]

J'ai écrit à la plume, au dos du vase ce poème.
Sabot de Vénus©
Sabot de Vénus tu es ma fleur
Préférée, élancée et distinguée
Tu remplis mon âme de sérénité,
Comme une enfant contre mon cœur
Au bonheur toujours renouvelé
Dans la pureté et la simplicité.
Ton langage tout en couleur,
Blanc, naïf, pur et idéalisé,
Rose, séduisant par sa sensualité,
Jaune, l’amour et sa chaleur,
Rouge, l’urgence de l’ amour désiré
Qui mène aux noces de l’orchidée.
Élie Mangoubi
Elie Mangoubi est un médecin psychiatre, né à Héliopolis et vivant à Chicago depuis 1968. Docteur en médecine de l'Université Libre de Bruxelles, il fit sa résidence en Psychiatrie à Rush-Presbyterian St Luke's à Chicago. Son plus grand bonheur fut d'avoir soigné les vétérans de 1974 à 2007, eux qui ont tant sacrifié pour sauvegarder notre liberté et de soigner les résidents chez les Petites Soeurs des Pauvres de 1970 jusqu’à ce jour et sa reconnaissance va à eux.
Depuis qu'il a pris sa retraite en temps que psychiatre au service des vétérans, il écrit des poèmes sur les juifs du Nil qui furent forçés de quitter l'Egypte avec l'arrivée au pouvoir de Nasser. Il parle de la souffrance de cette communauté qui a dû partir dans des conditions difficiles mais qui a su faire face à cet exode avec courage et détermination.
Ces poèmes traitent de thèmes divers: la famille, l’amour, la violence dans ce monde, l’injustice, la santé, la sérénité et l’importance de la spiritualité. Il est un témoin vibrant des souffrances de cette communauté, de tous les opprimés et les souffrants dans le monde. Son message lucide et clair; est une prière continuelle à la non violence pour promouvoir la tolérance, trouver la sérénité et la paix.

The Viceregal Lodge, Obervatory Hill, Shimla, India, by Henry Irwin. Completed 1888; tower height increased later by Lord Curzon. Local grey sandstone and light blue limestone, with iron girders, beams, and trusses.
Built on a high 331-acre site, levelled for the purpose, this mock-Tudor or baronial-style building is visible from far down the hillside, and was intended as a proud symbol of Empire. Over the portico at the main entrance is a coat of arms with inscriptions above it naming the architect (Irwin), the executive and assistant engineers (F. B. Hebbert and others) and the Earl of Dufferin as the current Viceroy. Dufferin was the first to occupy the new Lodge. The columned arches along the façade are echoed in the arches of alternating widths supporting the verandas. Just visible to the left of the main entrance, on the first floor, is one of the unobtrusive external iron spiral staircases provided for the lowliest menial staff, the bathroom sweepers.
Inside, the main hall is panelled in teak. The unicorn originally carved over the impressive main fireplace has since been replaced by the Indian wheel of progress. The double-galleried corridor off to the left is lit by mullioned windows and a glass ceiling, and leads to the ballroom, now the library of the Institute of Advanced Studies. On the ground floor were also the dining hall, lounge and drawing room. On the upper floors were the Viceroy's office and rooms. To the right of the main hall is a splendid three-storey high teak staircase, the kind of feature, no doubt, that earned Irwin his eulogy in the Madras Mail, to the effect that his genius was displayed in his interiors. In the morning room and visitors' lounge on this side, finishing touches like a walnut ceiling with a Kashmiri design, lavish wall-coverings (some of which remain more or less intact), an original chandelier and so on, can still be seen. Maple & Co, London, were the western suppliers. A large picture of one of the Vicereines, Lady Elgin, hangs over the fireplace of the visitors' lounge.
For its day, the Lodge had state-of-the-art technology. It had its own steam generator, and was the first building in Shimla to employ electric lighting. Indeed, Lady Dufferin, the first Vicereine in residence, is said to have first used an electric light switch here. The original light panel is still in place (with an added fusebox). The Lodge also had running hot and cold water, together with a sophisticated system for collecting and storing bath and rainwater, including two tanks under the front lawn.
Outside in the landscaped grounds stands a tall tulip tree, a rarity in an area dominated by pines and deodars. It was planted during the stay of the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Viceroy who replaced Dufferin in 1888.

The first news of the existence of the church of Sant Julià goes back to years 1136 and 1138. The conserved oldest part of the medieval church corresponds to the present chapel of Dolors (sorrows). The used equipment is of ashlars well fitted and cut. They are left also two lateral gothic chapels.
The present church of Sant Julià is a Renaissance building constructed between years 1631 and 1647, during the “War of Segadors (reapers)”. It is a church of a single nave, 40 by 12 meters, with six lateral chapels by side, semi-circular arch and barrel vault. The apse is pentagonal and the main vault is maintained by semicircular archs and is composed by five pointed vaults with nerves and decorated key. In the main facade it emphasizes the great baroque gate conformed by four columns that maintain friso. The bell tower, built before the church between 1622-1627, conserves the romanesque base and an inner chapel gothic covered with barrel vault.
In the chapel of Dolors (sorrows) there are an important franc-gothic painting set mural discovered during the restoration of the chapel made in 1968. The set occupies about 50 m² and has been dated around year 1300. It is conformed by three sections, the central is an allegorical representation of the tree of the Cross, and the lateral compositions are formed by scenes of the life of Jesus, Saint John Baptist and Saint John Evangelist.
In October 2007 it was declared "Cultural good of national interest" in the category of Historical Monument.
The Catalan Revolt (known in Catalan as the Guerra dels Segadors or Reapers' War) affected a large part of Catalonia between the years of 1640 and 1659. It had an enduring effect in the Treaty of the Pyrenees, which ceded the county of Roussillon and the northern half of the county of Cerdanya to France (see French Cerdagne), thereby splitting the Catalan population.
The war had its roots in the discomfort generated in Catalan society by the presence of Castilian troops during the wars between France and Spain as part of the Thirty Years' War. Catalan peasants were forced to quarter Castilian troops and responded on Corpus Christi day with an uprising known as 'Bloody Corpus' (Catalan Corpus de Sang), under the slogans "Long live the faith of Christ!", our lord", "Long live the land, death to bad government". This 'Bloody Corpus' of 1640, which began with the death of a reaper and led to the somewhat mysterious death of the Count of Santa Coloma, viceroy of Catalonia, marked the beginning of the conflict. The irregular militia were known as 'Miquelets'.
Pau Claris, head of the Generalitat of Catalonia, turned the social unrest of the Catalans into a political cause and proclaimed a Catalan Republic. The Generalitat obtained an important military victory in the battle of Montjuïc (January 26, 1641). A little later, the death of Pau Claris created a difficult local and international situation, which resulted in the proclamation of Louis XIII of France as count of Barcelona and sovereign of Catalonia, Lluís I de Barcelona.
The conflict extended beyond the Peace of Westphalia, which concluded the Thirty Years' War in 1648, with the confrontation between two sovereigns and two Generalitats, one based in Barcelona, under the control of Spain and the other in Perpinyà (Perpignan), under the occupation of France. In 1652 the French authorities renounced Catalonia, but held control of Roussillon, thereby leading to the signing of the Treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659.

CASTELLANO
La primera noticia de la existencia de la iglesia de Sant Julià se remonta a los años 1136 y 1138. La parte más antigua conservada de la iglesia medieval corresponde a la actual capilla dels Dolors. El aparejo empleado es de sillares bien encuadrados y cortados. Quedan también dos capillas laterales góticas.
La iglesia actual de Sant Julià es un edificio renacentista construido entre los años 1631 y 1647, durante la "Guerra dels Segadors". Es una iglesia de una sola nave, de 40 por 12 metros, con seis capillas laterales por banda, con arco de medio punto y bóveda de cañón. El ábside es pentagonal y la bóveda principal está sostenida por arcos semicirculares y está compuesta por cinco vueltas de ojiva con nervios y clave decorada. En la fachada principal destaca la gran portada barroca conformada por cuatro columnas que sostienen un friso. El campanario, levantado antes que la iglesia entre 1622-1627, conserva la base románica y una capilla interior gótica cubierta con bóveda de cañón.
En la capilla dels Dolors se encuentra un importante conjunto de pintura mural franco-gótica descubierto durante la restauración de la capilla realizada en el año 1968. El conjunto ocupa unos 50 m² y ha sido datado alrededor del año 1300. Está conformado por tres secciones, la central es una representación alegórica del árbol de la Cruz, y las composiciones laterales están formadas por escenas de la vida de Jesús, de San Juan Bautista y de San Juan Evangelista.
En octubre del 2007 fue declarado "Bien cultural de interés nacional" en la categoría de Monumento Histórico.
La Sublevación de Cataluña (o "Guerra dels Segadors") afectó a gran parte de Cataluña entre los años 1640 y 1659. Tuvo como efecto más duradero la firma de la Paz de los Pirineos entre la monarquía hispánica y el rey de Francia, pasando el condado del Rosellón y la mitad del de la Cerdaña, hasta aquel momento partes integrantes del principado de Cataluña, uno de los territorios de la monarquía hispánica, a soberanía francesa.
La guerra comienza a raíz del malestar que generaba en la sociedad catalana la presencia de tropas, fundamentalmente castellanas, durante las guerras entre Francia y España, enmarcadas dentro de la Guerra de los Treinta Años (1618 - 1648). Los hechos del Corpus de Sangre de 1640, desencadenados por el amotinamiento de un grupo de unos 400 o 500 segadores que entraron en Barcelona y que conducirían a la muerte del conde de Santa Coloma, noble catalán y virrey de Cataluña, marcan el inicio del conflicto.

That's my little guy...turning 3 in 6 days. I'm not sure I'm ready for that. I thought 2 was bad, but 3, it seems so old, so non-toddlerish. He's been acting so old lately. He's sick right now, and told me this morning that he needed "medisum" and has to go to the hospital to get a shot, then said he needed "ear pops" (ear drops) lol. He kisses me when I'm sad and tells me it'll be ok. He usually gets up in the middle of the night and runs to our bed, and I'm ok with this because every morning I'm awaken by him saying "mommy, I sleep good, now give me a hug" and he'll hug me, then say "and a kiss" and I get a big smooch. He's potty trained, which I always hoped for by age 3 but didn't expect it to come so easily. Word of advice for those wanting to train soon, wait til they are ready!!! We tried when he turned 18 months up until recently and we would have saved a lot of stress and messes if we just waited til he was ready for it.
Age 3...that means 2 more years until he goes to school. God help me.
Esta fotografia foi tirada em 11 de Junho de 2010, quase no Verão. Apesar disso, tem este ar invernoso resultado da densa neblina que existia na altura.
A serra do Marão tem sido fonte de inspiração para grandes autores portugueses, como Miguel Torga e outros. Mas, para Teixeira de Pascoaes ela é a Montanha Sagrada, por meio da qual toda a natureza ascende ao Cosmo (panteísmo) e, daí, ao espírito universal.
Ele escreve a propósito do Marão no seu poema mais conhecido (o Marânus):
"Espectros nebulosos,
Remotos ascendentes
Emergem na penumbra que flutua
E rodeiam-nos tristes, misteriosos..."
This photograph was taken on June 11, 2010, almost Summer time, though the wintry look. This Northern Mountain, Marão, also has heavy mists and has been a source of inspiration to many Portuguese Authors, like Miguel Torga and others. But, toTeixeira de Pascoaes, my favourite, Marão is the Sacred Mountain through which Natures aspires to Cosmos (pantheism), thus attaining the Universal Spirit. He wrote a well known poem (Marânus) and described the atmosphere in Marão this way:
"Fuzzy Ghosts,
Of ancient ancestors
Emerge in the misty shadows
And surround us, sad and mysterious ...."
Translated by Chilliwack Jack
I found a very interesting site in English about this poet and his philosophy.

I walked up to the tree, admiring the tiny white flowers on the branches
Not long ago, these trees held nothing; all the leaves had died
I asked the flowers, "What made you decide to bloom this year?
Why didn't you stay hidden in your branches, where it was safe?
Why do you always do the same thing every year?"
They looked back at me and quivered slightly with the wind
"Well," the flowers said, "the world is sad and dreary for so long
and we bring happiness back to it."
I considered this. "What makes people so happy when spring comes?"
The flowers looked up at the sun. "Change," the smallest bloom sighed.
"The world needs that every once in a while; it brings happiness.
If the world did not need to change, then we would never grow."
I nodded and smiled at the idea. I hadn't thought of it that way before.
I could only hear the slight rustle of the branches as I walked back the way I had come.
Arco del Pópulo - Cádiz (Spain).
ENGLISH
The Arc of the Pópulo is the North gate of the wall of the city, constructed in 13th century by Alfonso X the Wise. This wall was of rubblework and lime, with battlements merloned and towers, formed by three walls that they gave to the west, to the north and the east, the South part was without covering not to be necessary, due to the difficult thing of its access.
The Arc of the Pópulo was called Gate of the Sea primitively and also Fore gate of Town. The present name receives by an oil painting of the Virgin of the Roman Populo, work of the painter of Roman origin Antonio Franco of 16th century, that was exposed in a vaulted niche opened in the wall.
In 1598 it was begun to construct a chapel on the vault of tube of the arc, between the two towers, to render cultured to the Lady of the Pópulo.
---------------------
CASTELLANO
El Arco del Pópulo es la puerta norte de la muralla de la ciudad, construida en el siglo XIII por Alfonso X el Sabio. Dicha muralla era de mampostería y cal, almenada y con torres, estaba formada por tres lienzos que daban al oeste, al norte y al este, la parte sur quedaba sin cubrir por no ser necesaria, debido a lo difícil de su acceso.
El Arco del Pópulo fue llamado primitivamente Puerta del Mar y también Puerta Principal de la Villa. El nombre actual lo recibe por un lienzo al óleo de la Virgen del Pópulo Romano, obra del pintor de origen romano Antonio Franco del siglo XVI, que se encontraba expuesto en una hornacina abierta en el muro.
En 1598 se comenzó a construir una capilla sobre la bóveda de cañón del arco, entre las dos torres, para rendir culto a la Señora del Pópulo.
Sì dolce è'l tormento
Ch'in seno mi sta,
Ch'io vivo contento
Per cruda beltà.
Nel ciel di bellezza
S'accreschi fierezza
Et manchi pietà:
Che sempre qual scoglio
All'onda d'orgoglio
Mia fede sarà.
La speme fallace
Rivolgam' il piè.
Diletto ne pace
Non scendano a me.
E l'empia ch'adoro
Mi nieghi ristoro
Di buona mercè:
Tra doglia infinita,
Tra speme tradita
Vivrà la mia fè.
Per foco e per gelo
Riposo non hò.
Nel porto del Cielo
Riposo haverò.
Se colpo mortale
Con rigido strale
Il cor m'impiagò,
Cangiando mia sorte
Col dardo di morte
Il cor sanerò.
Se fiamma d'amore
Già mai non sentì
Quel riggido core
Ch'il cor mi rapì,
Se nega pietate
La cruda beltate
Che l'alma invaghì:
Ben fia che dolente,
Pentita e languente
Sospirimi un dì.
She is her biggest fan! Other than myself of course!
So sorry I have been so slow at returning comments, am trying to catch up, but have simply been very very busy!
Will see each of you real soon,
Like I said I need some time to catch up, but this is the end of the Lady Blanche photo's for a while, so just wanted to slip this in and try and explain, my slowness at returning your comments!
Thanks for all your love and support!
And Lady Blanche and I had a wonderful birthday for her. She got lot's of treats, a pedicure, a grooming, and a major message by one of her favorite friends!
Love and hugs, and you know all that jazz,
Will be with each of you soon, but am working on my First One Woman Exhibit and trying to get everything done by next Tuesday!
We both love you all!
billie and the lady!
We appreciate your multi invites but simply don't have the time right now! thanks anyway!
Accommodations in the Amazon aren't that plentiful. Our choice was Ariau Towers. For those familiar with the Survivor TV Show, this was the hotel the film crew stayed in during the taping of Survivor: The Amazon. The hotel looked like it had seen better days, but then again the conditions are rather harsh. It's hard to describe how much the area floods, hence everything being built on stilts. Some of the more famous guests have included Bill Gates, Jimmy Carter, Susan Sarandon, Alanis Morissette, etc... This picture is the interior of one of the towers. Our room was the one on the left.
With all that said, probably one of the things I will remember most from this location was our guide. He told us of how they would paddle on the river two hours one-way to the nearest school each day. He was currently in the midst of teaching himself his fifth language. His determination to better himself was inspiring.
Enjoy the weekend.
Thanks for looking!

A view of downtown Vancouver seen from Burnaby Mountain Park in Burnaby near Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
About this photo: One of my favourite places to hang around with my camera around sunset is Burnaby Mountain Park near Vancouver which is about 10-15 minutes driving for me. It had rained in the morning and in the afternoon the sun was trying to come out. I went up to Burnaby Mountain with high hopes of a good sunset, but there was a layer of low clouds that didn't make it happen. It was still a nice sunset, but nothing to write home about. The nicest views were after the sun had gone down and the city lights appeared. This was taken with my 75-300mm zoomlens. I zoomed in quite a bit lens to get a close up of downtown Vancouver...in the distance you can see Mount Arrowsmith which is located on Vancouver Island.

Some information on Burnaby Mountain: Burnaby is a city which belongs to the Greater Vancouver area and is about 10-15 minutes from downtown Vancouver. Burnaby Mountain is one of the beautiful places to visit in Burnaby and is located near the Simon Fraser University. The views over the mountains, the Burrard Inlet, downtown Vancouver and Indian arm from up here make it such a great place. This is a fairly popular destination popular visitors and locals alike. The green hillside offers room to throw a frisbee or send a kite soaring. There is a network of trails which offer a variety of hiking, walking and jogging options. There is also a playground tucked away in the upper hillside.
The Centennial Pavilion area features the Rose Garden, with its vibrant colours in season and a great variety of roses. Nearby is the acclaimed Horizons restaurant and two majestic totem poles, a reminder of the community's proud native heritage. Towering over the distant city are the tall Kamui Mintara (Playground of the Gods) sculptures. The Kamui Mintara is more than a dozen carved poles created by Japanese sculptors Nuburi Toko and his son, Shusei. These impressive sculptures commemorate the goodwill between Burnaby and its sister city, Kushiro, Japan.
Burnaby Mountain is a great place to enjoy in any season as there are always the beautiful views over the city, the mountains, the Burrard Inlet and Indian Arm (a coastal fjord of about 18km/11.25mi long).
