We did a walk that started on the green at Westerham and took in the countryside around the Weald of Kent, including Chartwell, the residence of Sir Winston Churchill (the bulldog of the title). A feature of the green are two statues, one of Sir Winston Churchill (Chartwell is just outside of the town) and one of Major General James Peter Wolfe who was born in Westerham. As I walked up to the statue of Churchill this idea of forced perspective came to me. No Photoshop trickery was used here to get the Major General standing on Winston's knee, waving his sword in the air and giving him some sort of lecture, to which he is listening intently :-)
It is a bit of fun and I might just go back and spend a bit more time trying to perfect it, hopefully when the sky is a bit more interesting.
Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, PC, DL, FRS, Hon. RA: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winston_Churchill
Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, KG, OM, CH, TD, PC, DL, FRS, Hon. RA (30 November 1874 – 24 January 1965) was a British politician, best known for his leadership of the United Kingdom during the Second World War. Widely regarded as one of the greatest wartime leaders of the 20th century, he served as Prime Minister twice (1940–45 and 1951–55). A noted statesman and orator, Churchill was also an officer in the British Army, a historian, a writer, and an artist. He is the only British prime minister to have received the Nobel Prize in Literature and was the first person to be made an Honorary Citizen of the United States.
Churchill was born into an aristocratic family as the grandson of the 7th Duke of Marlborough. His father, Lord Randolph Churchill, was a charismatic politician who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer; his mother, Jennie Jerome, was an American socialite. As a young army officer, he saw action in British India, the Sudan, and the Second Boer War. He gained fame as a war correspondent and wrote books about his campaigns.
At the forefront of politics for fifty years, he held many political and cabinet positions. Before the First World War, he served as President of the Board of Trade, Home Secretary, and First Lord of the Admiralty as part of the Asquith Liberal government. During the war, he continued as First Lord of the Admiralty until the disastrous Gallipoli Campaign caused his departure from government. He then briefly resumed active army service on the Western Front as commander of the 6th Battalion of the Royal Scots Fusiliers. He returned to government as Minister of Munitions, Secretary of State for War, and Secretary of State for Air. After the War, Churchill served as Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Conservative (Baldwin) government of 1924–29, controversially returning the pound sterling in 1925 to the gold standard at its pre-war parity, a move widely seen as creating deflationary pressure on the UK economy. Also controversial was his opposition to increased home rule for India and his resistance to the 1936 abdication of Edward VIII.
Out of office and politically "in the wilderness" during the 1930s, Churchill took the lead in warning about Nazi Germany and in campaigning for rearmament. On the outbreak of the Second World War, he was again appointed First Lord of the Admiralty. Following the resignation of Neville Chamberlain on 10 May 1940, Churchill became Prime Minister. His steadfast refusal to consider defeat, surrender, or a compromise peace helped inspire British resistance, especially during the difficult early days of the War when Britain stood alone in its active opposition to Adolf Hitler. Churchill was particularly noted for his speeches and radio broadcasts, which helped inspire the British people. He led Britain as Prime Minister until victory over Nazi Germany had been secured.
After the Conservative Party lost the 1945 election, he became Leader of the Opposition to the Labour (Attlee) government. After winning the 1951 election, he again became Prime Minister, before retiring in 1955. Upon his death, Elizabeth II granted him the honour of a state funeral, which saw one of the largest assemblies of world statesmen in history. Named the Greatest Briton of all time in a 2002 poll, Churchill is widely regarded as being among the most influential people in British history.
Major General James Peter Wolfe: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Wolfe
Major General James Peter Wolfe (3 January 1727 – 13 September 1759) was a British Army officer, known for his training reforms but remembered chiefly for his victory over the French at the Battle of Quebec in Canada in 1759. The son of a distinguished general, Lieutenant-General Edward Wolfe, he had received his first commission at a young age and saw extensive service in Europe where he fought during the War of the Austrian Succession. His service in Flanders and in Scotland, where he took part in the suppression of the Jacobite Rebellion, brought him to the attention of his superiors. The advancement of his career was halted by the Peace Treaty of 1748 and he spent much of the next eight years in garrison duty in the Scottish Highlands. Already a brigade major at the age of eighteen, he was a lieutenant-colonel by the age of twenty-three.
The outbreak of the Seven Years' War in 1756 offered Wolfe fresh opportunities for advancement. His part in the aborted raid on Rochefort in 1757 led William Pitt to appoint him second-in-command of an expedition to capture the Fortress of Louisbourg. Following the success of the Siege of Louisbourg he was made commander of a force which sailed up the Saint Lawrence River to capture Quebec City. After a lengthy siege Wolfe defeated a French force under Louis-Joseph de Montcalm allowing British forces to capture the city. Wolfe was killed at the height of the battle due to injuries from three musket balls.
Wolfe's part in the taking of Quebec in 1759 earned him posthumous fame and he became an icon of Britain's victory in the Seven Years War and subsequent territorial expansion. He was depicted in the painting The Death of General Wolfe, which became very famous around the world. Wolfe was posthumously dubbed "The Hero of Quebec", "The Conqueror of Quebec", and also "The Conqueror of Canada" since the capture of Quebec led directly to the capture of Montreal which ended French control of the country.
The ultimate Yogi, the diety of salvation, the highest source of attaining a state of bliss and absolute energy for man, Shiva is the personification of enlightenment - the state of nirvana, a freedom from suffering and the transcendence of the mind to the spiritual realm of limitless joy.
Shiva signifies absolute action and at the same time He is the stillness in the movement and the absorption of co-existing contradictions - the absolute reality beyond time, space and reason. He is the conciousness which bestows bliss and the eternal experience of energy, the portrayal of the potential energy contained in every atom.
The dance of Shiva is the divine motion that goes on inside every atom and the universe as a whole - the spectacular celestial dance, the display of all movements that occur in the inside and the outside of us. Represented in the form of a cylinder, the most stable and elementary shape in creation, He sustains all creation and is the source of all energies emanating from what he represents - Silence and Space.

________________________________________________________________________
Om Namah Shivaya is a popular mantra (chant/prayer) in Hinduism.
Its translation is "adoration (namas) to Shiva", preceded by the mystical syllable "Om".
The meaning of the Namaḥ Śivāya mantra was explained by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami:
Namaḥ Śivāya is the most holy name of God Śiva, recorded at the very center of the Vedas and elaborated in the Śaiva Agamas.
Na is the Lord's concealing grace, Ma is the world, Śi stands for Śiva, Va is His revealing grace, Ya is the soul. The five elements, too, are embodied in this ancient formula for invocation. Na is earth, Ma is water, Śi is fire, Vā is air, and Ya is ether, or Ākāśa. Many are its meanings.
Namaḥ Śivaya has such power, the mere intonation of these syllables reaps its own reward in salvaging the soul from bondage of the treacherous instinctive mind and the steel bands of a perfected externalized intellect. Namaḥ Śivāya quells the instinct, cuts through the steel bands and turns this intellect within and on itself, to face itself and see its ignorance. Sages declare that mantra is life, that mantra is action, that mantra is love and that the repetition of mantra, japa, bursts forth wisdom from within.
The book "The Ancient Power of Sanskrit Mantra and Ceremony: Volume I" by Thomas Ashley-Farrand defines Om Namah Shivaya as:
"This mantra has no direct translation. The sounds relate directly to the principles which govern each of the first five chakras on the spine...Earth, water, fire, air, ether. Notice that this does not refer to the chakras themselves which have a different set of seed sounds, but rather, the principles which govern those chakras in their place. A very rough, non-literal translation could be something like, 'Om and salutations to that which I am capable of becoming.' This mantra will start one out on the path of subtle development of spiritual attainments. It is the beginning on the path of Siddha Yoga, or the Yoga of Perfection of the Divine Vehicle."
"Na" refers to the Gross Body (annamayakosa), "Ma" refers to the Pranic Body (pranamayakosa), "Shi" or "Chi" refers to the Mental Body (manonmayakosa), "Va" refers to the Intellectual Body (vignanamayakosa) and "Ya" refers to the Blissful Body (anandamayakosa) and "OM" or the "silence" beyond these syllables refers to the Soul or Life within.

The metaphoric representations of Shiva as per the Holy scriptures:
Shiva's form:
Shiva has a Trident in the right lower arm, with a crescent moon on his head. He is said to be fair like camphor or like an ice clad mountain. He has fire and Damaru (drum) and Mala (beads) or a kind of weapon. In some depictions, he wears five serpents as ornaments, and a garland of skulls. He is pressing with his feet the demon Muyalaka, a dwarf holding a cobra. He faces south. Panchakshara (five syllables/elements) itself is his body. It is believed that Shiva became a god through meditating everyday.
Third eye:
Shiva is often depicted with a third eye, with which he burned Desire (Kāma) to ashes, called "Tryambakam", which occurs in many scriptural sources. It is said to symbolize him as the destroyer of all evil and ignorance.
Crescent moon:
Shiva bears on his head the crescent moon. The epithet "Chandraśekhara" - "Having the moon as his crest" (chandra = "moon"; śekhara = "crest, crown") refers to this feature. The crescent moon is shown on the side of the Lord's head as an ornament. The waxing and waning phenomenon of the moon symbolizes the time cycle through which creation evolves from the beginning to the end. Since the Lord is the Eternal Reality, He is beyond time. Thus, the crescent moon is only one of His ornaments. The wearing of the crescent moon in his head indicates that He has controlled the mind perfectly, is the master of time and is Himself timeless.
Sacred Ganges:
The Ganges river flows from the matted hair of Shiva. The epithet Gaṅgādhara ("bearer of the river Gaṅgā") refers to this feature. The Gaṅgā (Ganges), one of the major rivers of the country, is said to have made her abode in Shiva's hair. The flow of the Ganges is said to represent the nectar of immortality as well as signify the flow of scriptural teachings passing wisdom from one generation to the next.
Tiger skin:
He is often shown seated upon a tiger skin, an honour reserved for the most accomplished of Hindu ascetics, the Brahmarishis. Tiger represents lust. His sitting on the tiger’s skin indicates that He has conquered lust and is fearless.
Serpents:
Shiva is often shown garlanded with a snake. His wearing of serpents on the neck denotes wisdom and eternity. It is also said to signify the ego, which once mastered can be worn as an ornament.
Deer Skin:
Represents that He has removed the "Chanchalata" (tossing) of the mind. Deer jumps from one place to another swiftly. The mind also jumps from one object to another.
Trident:
Shiva's particular weapon is the trident. Held in His right hand it represents the three Gunas (qualities) — Sattva, Rajas and Tamas - Knowledge, Desire and Implementation. That is the emblem of sovereignty. He rules the world through these three Gunas.
Drum
The Damaru (hourglass shaped drum) in His left hand represents the Eternal Sound. It represents OM from which all languages are formed. It is He who formed the Sanskrit language out of the Damaru sound. With this language He gave us the teachings of the Holy Scriptures to guide us through life.
Beads:
The wearing of the beads denotes purity, sometimes with a rosary in the right hand denoting concentration.
Nandī:
Nandī, is the name of the bull that serves as Shiva's mount. Shiva's association with cattle is reflected in his name Paśupati, or Pashupati, translated "lord of cattle" or "lord of animals". The bull represents Dharma (righteousness). Lord Siva rides on the bull. This denotes that Lord Siva is the protector of Dharma, is an embodiment of Dharma or righteousness.

Die Perlhyazinthe gehört zur Familie der Liliengewächse und ist eine früh blühende (auch "Frühblüher" genannte) Zwiebelpflanze, die eine Wuchshöhe von bis zu 20 cm erreicht. Die glockenförmigen Blüten sitzen so dicht beieinander, dass der Blütenstand einem Kolben gleicht. Die Blütenfarbe ist meistens marineblau.
°°°°°°°°°°°
Die Perlhyazinthe ist keine einheimische Pflanze. Über 30 verschiedene Arten von ihr sind bekannt. Sie kommen hauptsächlich im Mittelmeerraum vor.
Sie lieben Halbschatten, vertragen aber auch volle Sonne. An den Boden stellen sie kaum Ansprüche, nur zu nass darf er nicht sein.
Die Perlhyazinthe war Anfang des letzten Jahrhunderts ein verbreitetes Unkraut in Weinbergen.
Durch die Bewirtschaftung der Weinberge ist sie heutzutage selten geworden und steht unter Naturschutz.
Traubenhyazinthen zählen zu den Giftpflanzen!
Beim Hantieren mit diesem Gewächs sollten Sie jedoch Vorsicht walten lassen, da Hyazinthen giftig sind und sogar Hautreizungen verursachen können, wenn man sie berührt.

** Edit** Feel free to add a tag to your stream. I might get it to it eventually but I didn't have time after I created it. Digital Agent added his which is a great idea. I added a few tonight.
And of course not everyone that I've connected with in some way or another is on here. Please understand you all are important.
Hopefully FINAL EDIT: I had a lot of fun doing this and learned a few things about Flickr and settings etc.
You can only add so many people to a photo. So I probably would have set this up differently had I known I would add you all to the photo.
Not everyone likes being added to photos therefore a setting is available that allows you to block this feature. You can also remove yourself from a photo. So if you don't care to have yourself listed in this fashion please feel free to remove your name.
Lastly the people that appear on this photo that I couldn't add a "face" for have been done over here.

The Marmora Mine
Marmora is located between the towns of Madoc and Havelock along highway 7 in Hastings County. The name Marmora is taken from the latin word for "marble".
The area was known for its rich iron content and mining operations began as early as the 1820's to extract and smelt this mineral. Today you will find the remains of the water-powered refinery along the eastern bank of the Crowe River while the northern bank of the Crowe held the richest ore deposits.
At its prime, the area was home to as many as two dozen mines. Perhaps the most successful of the mines was that of the Marmoraton which opened in 1955. The Marmoraton was owned by Bethlehem Steel Mills of New York and exported iron ore pellets.
In 1953, before the Marmoraton could open, engineers first had to blast through 120 feet of limestone before reaching the high grade ore which was underneath. One blasted out, the open pit mine measured approximately 1700 feet by 1200 feet and reached 600 feet deep.
The mine employed some 300 men who worked to fill the 30 to 35 railway cars daily for transport south to Picton port where it was loaded into boats. The mine produced 520,000 tons of pellets anually.
When the mine closed in 1979, it had mined almost 1.3 million tons of iron ore. Over time, underground streams and rainfall have slowly filled two thirds of the mine with water. So much so that it is now officially classified as a lake.

The Red Kite (Milvus milvus) is a medium-large bird of prey in the family Accipitridae, which also includes many other diurnal raptors such as eagles, buzzards and harriers. The species is currently endemic to the Western Palearctic region in Europe and northwest Africa, though formerly also occurred just outside in northern Iran. It is a rare species which is resident in the milder parts of its range in western Europe and northwest Africa, but birds from northeastern and central Europe winter further south and west, reaching south to Turkey. Vagrants have reached north to Finland and south to Israel and Libya.

El milano real es una de las rapaces más frecuentes en Europa; similar en aspecto al milano negro, es inconfundible su cabeza de color gris plateado y su silueta.
Los ejemplares que anidan en el Norte de Europa se desplazan al sur para invernar; algunos de ellos atravesarán el Estrecho hasta llegar al Norte de África. Su distribución llega hasta Canarias y las Islas de Cabo Verde.
El Milano Real tiene una longitud de 60 a 65 centímetros, una envergadura de alas de casi dos metros (190 centímetros) y un peso que oscila, desde los 900 gramos a los 1.200 gramos de peso.
Se diferencia fácilmente del Milano Negro, que es totalmente oscuro.

Baggara streek (= nomaden)
We rijden dwars door een savanne - gebied waar veel nomaden doortrekken met hun grote kudden runderen en geiten.
Het zijn de Fulani - nomaden die het Nuba-gebied doortrekken. Ze komen van west Soedan en trekken in de richting van de Witte Nijl naar het oosten.
De vrouwen en kinderen zitten hoog bovenop de kamelen, waarop ze dikwijls een bed hebben gemonteerd. Van daaruit hebben ze tevens een goed uitzicht hoog boven het hoge gras. Soms volgen nog wat volgeladen karren met etenswaren en vooral met veel water. Die karretjes worden dan getrokken door ezels.
uit:
Fula or Fulani are an ethnic group of people spread over many countries, predominantly in West Africa, but found also in Central Africa and Sudanese North Africa, and as far as Sudan in the east. Fulas are not a majority in every country they live, but in Guinea they represent a plurality of the population (largest single group).

Port Meadow is a large area of common land to the north and west of Oxford. The meadow is an ancient area of grazing land, still used for horses and cattle, and has never been ploughed. In return for helping to defend the kingdom against the marauding Danes, the Freemen of Oxford were given the 120ha of pasture next to the River Thames by King Alfred, who founded the City in the 10th Century. The Freemen's collective right to graze their animals free of charge was recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086 and has been exercised ever since.
It runs from Jericho to Wolvercote along the east (left) bank of the River Thames, with the railway and the suburb of North Oxford further to the east, and the village of Binsey to the west. It is a typical English floodmeadow and is a favourite area for walking, with easy access from the city of Oxford. At the southern end of the meadow is Fiddler's Island in a loop of the river Thames. In the winter the meadow floods and, if frozen, forms a huge and safe area for skating. In late spring vast areas are carpeted with buttercups. Horses, cattle and geese graze the meadow and many birds can often be seen.

K everyone....I have to elaborate on why I'm so excited about these pics of Rachel..... Its not that I haven't shot with a pretty girl before.....Its that I've begged and begged this girl since the day I met her 2 years ago to do pictures with me. All she's ever done with me is her family pics. The woman is a knockout (obviously) but she didn't have the same confidence about her that I had. WELL.......I got her to shoot with me! And I GOT TO DO THE HAIR AND MAKE UP TOO!!!!!! She kind of blows your mind huh?
before we got inside the mission inn, we had heard that they did not allow photography inside by people who weren't guests of the hotel or customers of their restaurants. we assumed that they would have security posted and that our group, albeit a small one, of photographers would easily be spotted and we would not get shots inside. however, that wasn't the case at all. it was so busy in the main lobby that it was esay for us to walk by the hotel employees into the areas that were designated for hotel guests only and walk around and take shots as much as we wanted. now i'm not sure if this is the case all the time... maybe at other times of the year it might not be possible. i don't want to give others the impression that this place is completely open for exploration and photography if you aren't a paying customer. it all depends i guess. i really wanted this shot of the rotunda having seen other people's shots... i think i might have been distracted by the supposed rules that i had mentioned earlier but i wasn't too happy with most of my shots inside the hotel. ehhh... at least i got this one i guess.

Gomphosphaeria aponina es una cianobacteria de corazones verdes, así está hecha y de este modo forma pequeñas colonias esféricas protegidas todas por una envuelta gelatinosa. A pesar de su sencillez y su simplicidad también las cianobacterias pueden dar lugar a formas relativamente complejas y hermosas. Hace poco tuvimos ocasión de comprobarlo en el común Nostoc y hoy la no tan común Gomphosphaeria nos muestra su esfera de corazones.
Gomphosphaeria aponina forma parte de la flora acuática que habita en las aguas salinas del litoral. Pedro González Guerrero la citó en los Anales del Jardín Botánico, en la década de 1940, haciendo referencia a los hallazgos que de esta especie hizo en las salinas de Cádiz. En ellas, esta pequeña especie junto con otro reducido grupo de algas y cianobacterias es capaz de soportar condiciones extremas de salinidad.
La colonia que mostramos aquí, procede de un excepcional enclave que merece la pena ser protegido y que afortunadamente se ha salvado de la destrucción generada por la edificación indiscriminada en zonas de costa: el marjal de Peñíscola. Detrás de los edificios situados en primera línea de playa de esta localidad se extiende una pequeña zona de lagunas salinas que constituyen un auténtico tesoro de biodiversidad y que entre otras especies de peces, alberga a la mayor población mundial de Samaruc, Valencia hispanica y es una de las últimas reservas del Fartet , Aphanius iberus además de diversos tipos de especies de aves, así como la única reserva europea del caracol Melanoides tuberculata .
A todas esas joyas de nuestra fauna se suma esta otra diminuta de nuestra flora Gomphosphaeria aponina . Deberán todas ellas resistir como la magnífica fortaleza que el Papa Luna hizo construir en esta localidad.
El género Gomphosphaeria comprende menos de una decena de especies y pueden vivir en lagunas y cursos fluviales de diferente naturaleza. Alguna de ellas, sin quererlo, sembró el pánico en las aguas cristalinas del río Razón, junto a la localidad Soriana de Espejo de Tera…sus aguas se tiñeron de una tonalidad rojiza… se pensó en un vertido ilegal, pero acercándose a las gotas de agua de este curso del río se comprobó que todo eran esferas de ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ que Gomphosphaeria sembró.
La pequeña colonia de Gomphosphaeria aponina vino con unas muestras recogidas hace semanas en el Marjal de Peníscola y ha sido fotografiada con 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

« Ne pouvant faire un palais de la chaumière ou du galetas de chaque famille ouvrière, nous avons voulu mettre la demeure de l’ouvrier dans un palais ; le Familistère, en effet, n’est pas autre chose, c’est le palais du travail, c’est le PALAIS SOCIAL de l’avenir.
Ce qu’il n’est pas possible de faire au profit de familles éparpillées et sans lien, les améliorations qu’on ne peut introduire dans le tohu-bohu des habitations ouvrières, ni à la ville, ni à la campagne, ni dans les caves, ni dans les mansardes habitées ; ce que ne permettent pas même les habitations ouvrières isolées les mieux construites, quel qu’en soit le système : le Familistère le permet, le palais social le rend possible, bien plus, il le rend nécessaire. »

JEAN-BAPTISTE GODIN ( ENGLISH )
Jean-Baptiste André Godin (26 January 1817 -29 January 1888) was a French industrialist and social experimentor born on the 26th of January 1817 at Esquéhéries (Aisne).
The son of an artisan, he entered an iron-works at an early age, and at seventeen made a tour of France as journeyman. Returning to Esquéhéries in 1837, he started a small factory for the manufacture of castings for heating-stoves. The business increased rapidly, and for the purpose of railway facilities was transferred to Guise in 1846. At the time of Godin's death in 1888 the annual output was over four millions of francs (4,160,000), and in 1908 the employees numbered over 2000 and the output was over 280,000.
An ardent disciple of Charles Fourier, he advanced a considerable sum of money towards the disastrous Fourierist experiment of V. P. Considerant (q.v.) in Texas (known as La Reunion. He profited, however, by its failure, and in 1859 started the Familistère, or community settlement, of Guise on more carefully laid plans.
The Familistère forms a town within the town of Guise. It comprises, in addition to a large factory, three large buildings, each four stories high, capable of housing all the work-people, each family having two or three rooms. The main building consists of three rectangular blocks joined at the corners. Each of these blocks has a central court covered with a glass roof under which children can play in all weather. There is no church of any sort. (There are, of course, churches within the rest of Guise). At the back of the main block there was a nursery. There is a separate block, known as the "economat", containing various shops, refreshment rooms and recreation rooms of various kinds(?), stores for the purchase of groceries, drapery and every necessity. This has recently (2008) been restored and is now a cafe, a shop selling books, postcards etc and an exhibition area. There were also allotments for the workers.
Opposite the main block there was a building containing a theater for concerts and dramatic entertainments and a primary school. There was also a communal laundry and swimming pool. This was a few years ago derelict but has now been restored. The swimming pool is still a swimming poll but the laundry is a meeting room and the drying room is now (2008) an exhibition room. In 1880 the whole was turned into a co-operative society, with provision by which it eventually became the property of the workers.
Godin manufactured cookers and heating stoves of many kinds mainly made from cast iron castings. Sometimes these were enameled. These are still to be found in use all over France. They can be found for sale on eBay.
This business was still owned by the workers in the 1950s but soon after was taken over by Le Creuset. It is not obvious that the factory is still functioning. It is seems the domestic building were privatised. The state of the domestic buildings was deteriorating but has recently been awarded EU money for it to be restored.
In 1871 Godin was elected deputy for Aisne, but retired in 1876 to devote himself to the management of the Familistère. In 1882 he was created a Knight of the Legion of Honor.
Godin was the author of Solutions sociales (1871); Les Socialistes et les Droits du travail (1874); Mutualité sociale et association du capital et du travail (1880); La Republique du travail et la reforme parlementaire (1889). See Bernardot, Le Familistère de Guise et son fondateur (Paris, 1887); Fischer, Die Familistère Godins (Berlin, 1890); Lestelle, Etude sur le Familistère de Guise (Paris, 1904); D. F. P., Le Familistère illustr, résultals de vingt ans d'association, 1880-1900 (Eng. trans., Twenty-eight years of co-partnership at Guise, by A. Williams, 1908).
Murfreesboro, TN.
View On Black Most Highly Recommended.
Like so many others, Colonel Hardee Murfree was given a land grant by the United States Government for his service in the American Revolution but Murfree remained in North Carolina rather than move to frontier Tennessee. His daughter, Sally, and her husband, Dr. James Maney, inherited the land and built a log cabin on the land. Sally died in 1857 as the home passed to son, Lewis, and his wife, Rachel Adeline Maney, who was the daugter of Tennessee Governor, Newton Canon.
Under ownership of Lewis and Adeline the house underwent four additions and extensive renovation including this Italianate front facade which you see in the picture. This was the fourth addition to the house which extends to the rear and is not in view. This addition included two formal parlors, Guest rooms, and formal dining area. The large wrap around veranda with chamferred arches and columns is its most prominent feature.
The house entertained such guests as oceanographer, Mathew Fontaine Maury; 1860 Presidential candidate, John Bell (buried at Mount Olivet cemetery); Sarah Polk, wife of US President James K. Polk, and Confederate States President, Jefferson Davis...... Then came the war.
The town of Murfreesboro changed hands several times in 1862. In July, 1862, a Federal detachment of 1,000 troops occupied Murfreesboro a portion of which under the command of Colonel William Duffield (9th Michigan Infantry Regiment) was encamped near the spring which lies to the right of this photo.
On July 13, 1862, Confederate Cavalry under the command of General Nathan Bedford Forrest raided Murfreesboro attacking all Federal positions including the Rutherford County Courthouse where Confederate prisoners were being held. The fighting came to Oaklands where a skirmish took place on the Oaklands front lawn and was witnessed by the Maney children from the second floor window in the center of the house (arched window). During the skirmish, Duffield was shot and wounded. He was carried inside the Oaklands where the Maneys nursed him back to health. The Federal detachment surrendered the town of Murfreesboro back to the Confederates inside Oaklands. The town would ramin in Confederate hands until the major battle of Stones River (Dec. 31 , 1862 - Jan. 2, 1863) - a battle of over 80,000 combatants and 24,000 casualties. Murfreesboro would remain under Federal control for the remainder of the war.
Of course, with the end of the war came the end of slavery and plantations such as Oaklands was dependent upon slavery for its sustainence. As a matter of fact, slaves physically built the mansion and made the very brick utilized. Eventually, Adeline was forced to sell portions of the property to pay off debt and was forced to move (to a smaller mansion - poor girl). ONe piece of property sold became Evergreen cemetery from which I have taken a few photos.
By the 1960's the mansion was abandoned and in complete and utter ruin. The roof had caved in and the house was in deplorable shape. It has since been restored and is open to the public for tours.
Oh, that Colonel Duffield who was shot in skirmish on the front lawn - he recovered from his wounds and sent the Maney's a set of silverware, pitcher, etc. as an appreciation for their hospitality.

From www.artic.edu/artexplorer/search.php?tab=2&resource=207:
An introduction to Gauguin's intriguing painting of Tahitian women in front of a thatched house. Just like its title, the painting leaves the viewer with questions.
Why Are You Angry? (No Te Aha Oe Riri) is one of six large canvases of identical dimensions that Paul Gauguin painted during the first months of his second Tahitian sojourn (1895–1903). Like the other works in the group, it exhibits a compositional amplitude and chromatic subtlety that were new to the artist's work. One senses here the examples of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes and Georges Seurat behind Gauguin's assured disposition of figures in space.
Gauguin based Why Are You Angry? on a painting from his first Tahitian sojourn (1891–93), The Big Tree (Te Raau Rahi) (1891; Cleveland Museum of Art and anonymous collector), but in the Art Institute's canvas, the figures are more prominent. The interrogative title invites narrative readings, but the composition itself resists definitive interpretation. We are probably meant to associate the question with the pouting, bare-chested woman in the foreground; perhaps it is being posed by her companion. These languorous, young women—there are no men in the picture—sit on the ground in front of a thatched house of mysterious character. Its prominent, black door, a void "guarded" by an older woman, may be an oblique sexual allusion. The proximity of two hens and several chicks to the brooding figure, together with the latter's milk-heavy breasts, suggests that recent motherhood is the cause of her discontent. Perhaps she is jealous of the woman standing at right, whose elegance and serene self-satisfaction point to a sensual existence unfettered by familial obligations. This implied drama of frustrated desire is complicated by the presence of a pair of women in the right background, one of them young and nubile, the other old and bent. But even this evocation of physical decline does not solve the solve the picture's riddle, which seems to have been carefully devised by Gauguin.

I SHOOT IT AT GANGASAGAR MELA(FAIR).
Gangasagar Mela is the largest fair celebrated in West Bengal(INDIA). This fair is held where the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal form a nexus. Hence the name Gangasagar Mela. This festival is celebrated during January every year and is a major attraction for millions of piligrams from all over India.
The pilgrims come for a holy dip on Makar Sankranti (last day of the Bengali Month) Negha -Mid January. They take dips in the Ganges and offer water to the Sun God. The dip, as they say, purifies their 'self' and according to them, 'punya' can be obtained thus. When they are done with the ritual obligations, they head towards the Kapilmuni Temple situated nearby, to worship the deity as a mark of respect.
In every year in the time of fair,some poor local people temporarily build up a tent with plastic & bamboo to beg with their child from the men who came here to obtain "punya" (accumulate of religious merits).

My mum got me this orchid for my birthday. Isn't it pretty? My birthday wasn't as terrible as I thought it was going to be. It was nothing special but it was good. I was surprisingly content. I woke up late, watched tv and then JT played video games with me. He can be a pretty cool kid when he wants to be. My dad got me a portable hard drive, 500G so I can stop bitching about not having enough space.
I know my 365 probably looks weird, alot of shots I'm posting private because I'm getting lazy and just blind shooting myself before I go to sleep so I wake up with these terrible pictures of me on my camera that probably scare you all away if I posted them public. Hah.

Same girl than the previous picture, this time I found her so beautiful in this light that I asked to get a portrait from her.
She knew quite well how to pose, she put her head directly in the sun.
This beautiful little girl is from the Pa-O ethnic group, we can easily recognize the women with their traditional red scarf they put in their head to protect themselves from the sun. It is quite touching to see how this tradition is well preserved among the generations and I wish they will keep doing that for a long time.
This little girl was help to welcome the trekkers who were arriving in the monastery to spend the night. She is from the village next to the monastery and was bringing tea to the people. How sweet was it.
We exchanged couple of word in burmese and english, she was not shy at all, maybe used to see some foreigners traveling and sleeping in the monastery of her village.
Wonderful time !

Santa Coloma de Queralt, Tarragona (Spain).
1ª Sortida enfoca: Guimerà-Conesa (gener 2009).
En Conesa nos despedimos todos y cada uno volvió a su casa. En el camino de regreso a mi casa pasé por este pueblo y decidir pararme un rato a conocerlo y sacar algunas fotos, que aunque no pertenezcan a la salida oficial, para mí es como si lo fueran.
ENGLISH
Santa Coloma de Queralt is a municipality in the comarca of the Conca de Barberà in Catalonia, Spain. It is situated in the north-east of the comarca. The four medieval gateways to the old town have been preserved. The gothic church of Santa Coloma dates from the fourteenth century.
There are settlements nearby to the town that they date of the Neolithic, but the first center of population of Santa Coloma is Iberian.
The first document that makes reference to the population of "Sancta Columba" it dates from 976 and places it in the territory of the "marca, in front of the limits of Spain", that is, land of border between the Christian and the Muslim Catalonia.
Almost during a thousand years Santa Coloma was the parental home of the barony of the Queralt, one of the feudal families more powerful of Middle Ages, firm allied of the count of Barcelona. Of this period are the main monuments: part of the castle, the wall (of which four portals stay), Jewish Jewry, parish church... The Jewish community, represented an important percentage of the population. The Jews dedicated themselves to commercial activities and were never an object of persecution.
During 16 and 17th centuries the castle went being to stately residence and was modified with Baroque and Renaissance styles.
In the national wars of the 17 and 18th centuries Santa Coloma believer to the Catalan institutions always stayed. During the War of the Reapers (Segadors), the town declared "enemy of the homeland" the count of Santa Coloma and viceroy of Catalonia Dalmau III of Queralt. Afterwards it put itself under the protection of the king of France and renounced to name Queralt to be called Santa Coloma "the Royal".
In the War of Succession, the town declared adherent to archduke Charles of Austria and collaborated in the fight against the Franco-Castilian troops of Philip V. After the defeat of 1714 and during all the 18th century, the town experienced a strong growth of the population, who provoked the disappearance of the walls on building the outskirts. Today some towers are visible still and they subtract four portals intact.
In the 19th century and until mid 20th the textile industry supposed an important economic growth and demographic of the population, which increased in more than a thousand inhabitants and arrived at its historical maximum of 3.500 inhabitants in 1932. During the war of 1936-1939, the town changed its historical name for that of Segarra de Gaià.

CASTELLANO
Santa Coloma de Queralt, es un municipio español, situado en la provincia de Tarragona (Cataluña), en la comarca de la Conca de Barberá, a la derecha del río Gayá, protegido por la sierra de Aguiló (811 m) y del Codony (789 m). Tiene diversos torrentes, que son los que surten de agua al término.
El municipio tiene su origen en la primitiva iglesia dedicada a Santa Coloma, perteneciente al castillo de Queralt. Este edificio aparece documentado en 976 cuando fue adquirido por el vizconde Guitard. Fue el primer centro de la baronía de Queralt. La primera denominación de la villa fue la de Santa Coloma Samora. Durante el siglo XIII aparece citada como Samarca o de la Marca aunque el término de Queralt ya aparece en algunos dodumentos.
Entre el siglo XIII y 1492 tuvo una importante comunidad judía de la que aún se conservan algunas calles.
Durante la Guerra de los Segadores, el pueblo apoyó a la Generalidad. El rey Luis XIV le concedió a Santa Coloma el título de "villa real" y abolió la señoría. Al finalizar la guerra, el pueblo volvió a quedar en manos de la familia Queralt.
De su población medieval se conserva parte de la muralla y las puertas de Cervera, del Martí, de Santa María y de Santa Coloma. En 1294 había tres puertas que se ampliaron a seis en el año 1471.La baronía de Queralt perteneció a los señores de Gurb hasta el 1213 que vendieron el término a los Timor, que se quedaron con el nombre de Queralt para fundar un linaje.
El castillo de Queralt en el siglo X pertenecía a los señores de Barcelona, durante los siglos XI -XIII al condado de Osona-Manresa.
La iglesia parroquial esta dedicada a Santa Maria (siglo XIV). Es de estilo gótico. Aunque su construcción se inició en 1331 no fue culminada hasta 1587. En su interior se encuentra un retablo de alabastro dedicado a San Lorenzo, del año 1386 realizado por el escultor Jordi de Déu. Tiene un alto campanario cuadrado del siglo XVII.

Scan circa 1956. Me and my brother and sisters. I am the oldest. I am 6 years older than Bob, he looks to be maybe two here. So, I could be 8 or 8 1/2. This could be Fall or Winter. It's on the old living room couch. Notice the old embossed tin walls that are painted and our orchard in the back yard.
We all have on new flannel shirts and courderoy pants lined with flannel. These were handmade by my dad's sister, Margaret from Escanaba, who also took the pic with her camera. We didn't have an indoor camera then, only an old Kodak Brownie which was for outside only and had no flash. So, it's a rare photo of the 4 of us! See previous pic of me in Easter dress in 1955. We lost our Mom {age 41} in 1964 when we were all in school yet. I helped Dad raise these siblings.
Here's a poem I wrote in 1992 and it is in my poetry book, Windows to my Heart, (c) 1993.
THOSE MORNING KISSES
by Kathie Luther
It was our routine, a daily habit,
To kiss our Mumma goodbye.
She'd bend down, four kisses were planted,
Then off to the school bus we'd fly!
How glad we were for that dear old habit
And that last day we kissed Mumma goodbye.
We were just kids who took her for granted.
"Those were the good old days," we sigh.
Those morning kisses, so customary,
Transformed by time and loss we find
Have become so very extraordinary
They're sparkling jewels in our minds!
"For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time,
and then vanisheth away." James 4:14
I think it's not fair to let the old year go by
without saying Thank You for all the wonderful motifs and moments,
which it presented to us all
and for the fun we had, viewing them together here on flickr !! Large On Black

Possibly a Common Ringed Plover - Please correct if I'm wrong. Very interesting, and active bird. It was quite a job to keep the lens aimed at this cutie.
Scientific Name : Charadrius hiaticula
Shot off Kanakpura Road, Bangalore Rural.
On a different note, I was quite surprised to see this bird here, and was even confused on the ID for a few days - I'm still guessing this is the Common Ringed Plover. I didn't know that these birds were found around Bangalore. The trip to Kanakpura Road was worth the pain and hand numbing experience on my motorbike. :-) Managed to find places filled with birds - I should visit there again soon.
This is a well fortified nest of a Loggerhead turtle near where I was staying this weekend. There has been much debate over the past couple of years between predator/prey...at one point 'environmentalists' were suggesting culling the island foxes in order to help save the turtles.
During nesting season, almost always after dark, the mother loggerhead (about 30 - 40 inches wide, 200 - 300 pounds) lumbers up from the surf. Current research suggests that the texture of the sand and the ground temperature both play a part in the selection of the nest site. Unusual sounds or lights can scare her away from the chosen beach. If the female returns to the water without laying eggs, it is called a "false crawl." When the female is ready to lay, she will begin to dig the nest with her hind flippers while she faces away from the water. She will throw sand back and forth with her enormous flippers, digging a hole about 18" deep near the base of the sand dunes and above the high tide line. If she lays the nest too close to the water where it will be in danger, it will be relocated by volunteers in order to increase the probability of hatching. When she completes the clutch, laying about 100 - 120 ping-pong size eggs, she urinates on each side of the cavity which allows her t o shape and pack the sand. Again using her flippers, she pulls sand over the eggs and then uses the weight of her body to pack the sand. When finished it will be difficult to perceive exactly where the eggs are located. She will then return slowly to the ocean, having been on the beach about an hour and a half. Volunteers check the beach sand for the tell-tale crawl tracks, locate the eggs, and begin the process of protecting the nest. The turtle hatchlings emerge between 55 and 70 days later. Both nesting and hatching take place under the protection of the night sky. When baby turtles emerge from their nests they are drawn to light (moonlight and phosphorescence from the sea). Street lights, house lights and flashlights seem to disorient them so they wander and become victims of ghost crabs. This is why our volunteers hand out red covers for your flashlights! Once in the water, the hatchlings head for seaweed and sea grasses to hide and to find food. High mortality rates for young turtles are due to predation by ghost crabs, foxes on our beach, seagulls, blue fish, sharks, and fishing nets. Out of 1000 hatchlings, only about ONE will survive to become an adult. After 25-30 years it is believed those females that survive will return to Caswell Beach as laying adults. During their development they will travel thousands of miles at sea, making it difficult to track their full life history from hatching to maturity. [from Caswell Beach Turtle Watch website]
Town of Caswell Beach - Turtle Nest Signs
To prevent fox and raccoon predation of our turtle nests habanero pepper powder is being placed around each nest on the beach. Habanero pepper powder is very hot and irritating to the skin. Turtles and hatchlings are not susceptible to the irritation caused by habanero pepper, but humans and mammals are. Foxes, raccoons dogs and people that dig into a protected turtle nest will come in contact with the RED HABANERO PEPPER POWDER which will cause a very strong burning irritation to their skin.

On my 14th day in my 365, I joined FGR and held a picture of Grandmaster Flash over my face. I actually got comments on a picture in my 365 that day, so obviously, I was hooked. Since then, I have had more fun taking pictures of myself than I ever thought I could. I don't know if I was ever considered a "cool kid" or not, but I always felt like one, especially when Clem or Trial left a comment on my shot. I know they'll still be by to see me once in awhile, and I know there is a new group to carry on the tradition, but without those 2 guys running things, there will be some empty space...
but it was fun while it lasted, and even though the fat baby turtledick sucking lady hasn't sung quite yet, i do believe it's time to say goodbye.
In addition to The Rogue Players, I have my own group now that many of you know about and have participated in, which I thank you for. I am constantly seeking inspiration from those around me, and the friends and flickr family I have developed since starting my 365 have never left me wanting when it comes to that. I hope you all have a great 2009, because I don't know about you, but 2008 started to suck pretty bad lately!
Happy New Year, and L'Chaim...to new beginnings!

Where is the failure
Not in this land
But still you try to
Get what you can
You know that it's bad but
If you insist
Here's one more chance now
That you just missed
(Repeat Chorus)
I believe you
I believe you
(Repeat Chorus)
Waking up the global warning way
Nepal cornflakes for my special kay
What's the halth departement got to say
Don't smoke more than 50 fags a day
(Repeat Chorus)
Come on party on down
(Repeat Chorus)
Not there best song, but a fun song
My favourite by these guys (actually the original BAD or Big Audio Dynamite) is the song "Contact"
Helluva dub punk reggae hip hop mix up..very nice fusion..I have always loved fusion is done right...which means treating all parts with the equal amount of respect...
Driving down the rutted lane is never pleasant, it never has been even when a teenager but the view that awaits is one of my favourites.
The Atlantic in full force dominates, the old mine at the cliff edge as seen in some of my previous images and the cliffs providing stout defence.
Rinsey on the south coast holds a gem of a little beach revealed only on a low tide at the expense of a steep hike, a place of fond memories of years past, of rock bashing, body surfing, sunshine, girls and more.
None of that, the view, the memories are relevant today. We are here today to enjoy the sand underfoot, the fresh breeze through the hair and the sun on our faces whilst allowing Jack to run his little heart out providing a fair impression of a greyhound.
So, no views just an indulgent image or two of our best friend Jack chasing the surf.
Running like a lunatic, being jet black and shooting almost directly into the sun bouncing off the sea made for an interesting and difficult capture.
Access to Observation Deck Granted
Far away
This ship has taken me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die
THE Starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore
Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms
Starlight by muse...the song been in my head for DAYS

3. One of my new favorite movies is fantastic mr.fox...differently making its way onto my ipod.

Rage Against the Machine - Wake Up
How can you buy or sell the sky, the warmth of the land?
The idea is strange to us.
If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water,
how can you buy them?
Every part of the Earth is sacred to my people.
Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every clear and humming insect is holy in the memory and experience of my people.
The sap which courses through the trees carries the memory and experience of my people.
The sap which courses through the trees carries the memories of the red man.
The white man's dead forget the country of their birth when they go to walk among the stars.
Our dead never forget this beautiful Earth, for it is the mother of the red man.
We are part of the Earth and it is part of us.
The perfumed flowers are our sisters, the deer, the horse, the great eagle, these are our brothers.
The rocky crests, the juices in the meadows, the body heat of the pony, and the man, all belong to the same family.
So, when the Great Chief in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land, he asks much of us.
The Great White Chief sends word he will reserve us a place so that we can live comfortably to ourselves.
He will be our father and we will be his children.
So we will consider your offer to buy land.
But it will not be easy.
For this land is sacred to us.
This shining water that moves in streams and rivers is not just water but the blood of our ancestors.
If we sell you land, you must remember that it is sacred blood of our ancestors.
If we sell you land, you must remember that it is sacred, and you must teach your children that it is sacred and that each ghostly reflection in the clear water of the lakes tells of events in the life of my people.
The waters murmur is the voice of my father's father.
The rivers of our brothers they quench our thirst.
The rivers carry our canoes and feed our children.
If we sell you our land, you must remember to teach your children that the rivers are our brothers, and yours, and you must henceforth give the rivers the kindness that you would give my brother.
We know that the white man does not understand our ways.
One portion of land is the same to him as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs.
The Earth is not his brother, but his enemy and when he has conquered it, he moves on.
He leaves his father's graves behind, and he does not care.
He kidnaps the Earth from his children, and he does not care.
BIRTHRIGHT
His father's grave, and his children's birthright are forgotten.
He treats his mother, the Earth, and his brother, the same, as things to be bought, plundered, sold like sheep or bright beads.
His appetite will devour the Earth and leave behind only a desert.
I do not know.
Our ways are different from yours ways.
The sight of your cities pains the eyes of the red man.
But perhaps it is because the red man is a savage and does not understand.
There is no quiet place in the white man's cities.
No place to hear the unfurling of leaves in spring, or the rustle of an insect's wings.
But perhaps it is because I am a savage and do not understand.
The clatter only seems to insult the ears.
And what is there to life if a man cannot hear the lonely cry of a whippoorwill or the arguments of the frogs around a pond at night.
I am a red man and do not understand.
The Indian prefers the soft sound of the wind darting over the face of the pond, and the smell of the wind itself, cleansed by a midday rain, or scented with the pinon pine.
PRECIOUS
The air is precious to the red man, for all things share the same breath - the beast, the tree, the man, they all share the same breath.
The white man does not seem to notice the air he breathes.
Like a man dying for many days, he is numb to the stench.
But if we sell you our land, you must remember that the air is precious to us, that the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports.
The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also receives his last sigh.
And if we sell you our land, you must keep it apart and sacred, as a place where even the white man can go to taste the wind that is sweetened by the meadow's flowers.
So we will consider your offer to buy our land.
If we decide to accept, I will make one condition - the white man must treat the beasts of this land as his brothers.
I am a savage and do not understand any other way.
I have seen a thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairie, left by the white man who shot them from a passing train.
I am a savage and do not understand how the smoking iron horse can be made more important than the buffalo that we kill only to stay alive.
What is man without the beasts?
If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit.
For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man.
All things are connected.
RESPECT
You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of our grandfathers.
So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the Earth is rich with the lives of our kin.
Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the Earth is our mother.
Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of the Earth.
If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.
This we know - the Earth does not belong to man - man belongs to the Earth.
This we know.
All things are connected like the blood which unites one family.
All things are connected.
Whatever befalls the Earth - befalls the sons of the Earth.
Man did not weave the web of life - he is merely a strand in it.
Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.
Even the white man, whose God walks and talks with him as friend to friend, cannot be exempt from the common destiny.
We may be brothers after all.
We shall see.
One thing we know, which the white man may one day discover - Our God is the same God.
You may think now that you own Him as you wish to own our land, but you cannot.
He is the God of man, and His compassion is equal for red man and the white.
The Earth is precious to Him, and to harm the Earth is to heap contempt on its creator.
The whites too shall pass, perhaps sooner than all other tribes.
But in your perishing you will shine brightly, fired by the strength of the God who brought you to this land and for some special purpose gave you dominion over this land and over the red man.
That destiny is a mystery to us, for we do not understand when the buffalo are slaughtered, the wild horses tamed, the secret corners of the forest heavy with scent of many men, and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires.
Where is the thicket?
Gone.
Where is the Eagle?
Gone.
The end of living and the beginning of survival.
“Como você pode comprar ou vender o céu, o calor da terra? A idéia é estranha para nós.
Se nós não somos donos da frescura do ar e do brilho da água, como você pode comprá-los?
Cada parte da Terra é sagrada para o meu povo.
Cada pinha brilhante, cada praia de areia, cada névoa
nas florestas escuras, cada inseto transparente, zumbindo,
é sagrado na memória e na experiência de meu povo.
A energia que flui pelas árvores traz consigo a memória
e a experiência do meu povo.
A energia que flui pelas árvores traz consigo as memórias
do homem vermelho.
Os mortos do homem branco se esquecem da sua pátria quando
vão caminhar entre as estrelas.
Nossos mortos nunca se esquecem desta bela Terra,
pois ela é a mãe do homem vermelho.
Somos parte da Terra e ela é parte de nós.
As flores perfumadas são nossas irmãs, os cervos, o cavalo,
a grande águia, estes são nossos irmãos.
Os picos rochosos, as seivas nas campinas, o calor do corpo do pônei,
e o homem, todos pertencem à mesma família.
Assim, quando o Grande Chefe em Washington manda dizer que
quer comprar nossa terra, ele pede muito de nós.
O Grande Chefe manda dizer que reservará para nós um lugar
onde poderemos viver confortavelmente.
Ele será nosso pai e nós seremos seus filhos.
Então vamos considerar sua oferta de comprar a terra.
Mas não vai ser fácil.
Pois esta terra é sagrada para nós.
A água brilhante que se move nos riachos e rios não é
simplesmente água, mas o sangue de nossos ancestrais.
Se vendermos a terra para vocês, vocês devem se lembrar de que
ela é o sangue sagrado de nossos ancestrais.
Se nós vendermos a terra para vocês, vocês devem se lembrar de que
ela é sagrada, e vocês devem ensinar a seus filhos que ela é sagrada
e que cada reflexo do além na água clara dos lagos fala de coisas
da vida de meu povo.
O murmúrio da água é a voz do pai de meu pai.
Os rios nossos irmãos saciam nossa sede.
Os rios levam nossas canoas e alimentam nossas crianças.
Se vendermos nossa terra para vocês, vocês devem lembrar-se de
ensinar a seus filhos que os rios são irmãos nossos, e de vocês,
e consequentemente vocês devem ter para com os rios o mesmo
carinho que têm para com seus irmãos.
Nós sabemos que o homem branco não entende nossas maneiras.
Para ele um pedaço de terra é igual ao outro, pois ele é um estranho
que chega à noite e tira da terra tudo o que precisa.
A Terra não é seu irmão, mas seu inimigo e quando ele o vence,
segue em frente.
Ele deixa para trás os túmulos de seus pais, e não se importa.
Ele seqüestra a Terra de seus filhos, e não se importa.
O túmulo de seu pai, e o direito de primogenitura de seus filhos
são esquecidos.
Ele ameaça sua mãe, a Terra, e seu irmão, do mesmo modo, como
coisas que comprou, roubou, vendeu como carneiros ou contas brilhantes.
Seu apetite devorará a Terra e deixará atrás de si apenas um deserto.
Não sei.
Nossas maneiras são diferentes das suas.
A visão de suas cidades aflige os olhos do homem vermelho.
Mas talvez seja porque o homem vermelho é selvagem e não entende.
Não existe lugar tranqüilo nas cidades do homem branco.
Não há onde se possa escutar o abrir das folhas na primavera, ou
o ruído das asas de um inseto.
Mas talvez seja porque eu sou um selvagem e não entendo.
A confusão parece servir apenas para insultar os ouvidos.
E o que é a vida se um homem não pode ouvir o choro solitário
de um curiango ou as conversas dos sapos, à noite, em volta de uma lagoa.
Sou um homem vermelho e não entendo.
O índio prefere o som macio do vento lançando-se sobre a face do lago, e
o cheiro do próprio vento, purificado por uma chuva de meio-dia, ou
perfumado pelos pinheiros.
O ar é precioso para o homem vermelho, pois todas as coisas
compartilham o mesmo hálito – a fera, a árvore, o homem,
todos compartilham o mesmo hálito.
O homem branco parece não perceber o ar que respira.
Como um moribundo há dias esperando a morte,
ele é insensível ao mau cheiro.
Mas se vendermos nossa terra, vocês devem se lembrar de que o ar
é precioso para nós, que o ar compartilha seus espíritos
com toda a vida que ele sustenta.
Mas se vendermos nossa terra, vocês devem mantê-la separada e sagrada,
como um lugar onde mesmo o homem branco pode ir para sentir o vento
que é adoçado pelas flores da campina.
Assim, vamos considerar sua oferta de comprar nossa terra.
Se resolvermos aceitar, eu imporei uma condição – o homem branco
deve tratar os animais desta terra como se fossem seus irmãos.
Sou um selvagem e não entendo de outra forma.
Vi mil búfalos apodrecendo na pradaria, abandonados pelo
homem branco que os matou da janela de um trem que passava.
Sou um selvagem e não entendo como o cavalo de ferro que fuma
pode se tornar mais importante que o búfalo, que nós só matamos
para ficarmos vivos.
O que é o homem sem os animais?
Se todos os animais acabassem, o homem morreria
de uma grande solidão do espírito.
Pois tudo o que acontece aos animais, logo acontece ao homem.
Todas as coisas estão ligadas.
Vocês devem ensinar a seus filhos que o chão sob seus pés
é as cinzas de nossos avós.
Para que eles respeitem a terra, digam a seus filhos que a Terra
é rica com as vidas de nossos parentes.
Ensinem as seus filhos o que ensinamos aos nossos,
que a Terra é nossa mãe.
Tudo o que acontece à Terra, acontece aos filhos da Terra.
Se os homens cospem no chão, eles cospem em si mesmos.
Isto nós sabemos – a Terra não pertence ao homem –
o homem pertence à Terra.
Isto nós sabemos.
Todas as coisas estão ligadas como o sangue que une uma família.
Todas as coisas estão ligadas.
Tudo o que acontece à Terra – acontece aos filhos da Terra.
O homem não teceu a teia da vida – ele é meramente um fio dela.
O que quer que ele faça à teia, ele faz a si mesmo.
Mesmo o homem branco, cujo Deus anda e fala com ele como de
amigo para amigo, não pode ficar isento do destino comum.
Podemos ser irmãos, afinal de contas.
Veremos.
De uma coisa nós sabemos, que o homem branco pode um dia
descobrir – nosso Deus é o mesmo Deus.
Vocês podem pensar agora que vocês O possuem como desejam
possuir nossa terra, mas vocês não podem fazê-lo.
Ele é Deus do homem, e Sua compaixão é igual tanto para com
o homem vermelho quanto para com o branco.
A Terra é preciosa para Ele, e danificar a Terra é acumular desprezo
por seu criador.
Os brancos também passarão, talvez antes de todas as outras tribos.
Mas em seu desaparecimento vocês brilharão com intensidade,
queimados pela força do Deus que os trouxe a esta terra e para algum
propósito especial lhes deu domínio sobre esta terra
e sobre o homem vermelho.
Esse destino é um mistério para nós, pois não entendemos quando os
búfalos são mortos, os cavalos selvagens são domados, os recantos
secretos da floresta carregados pelo cheiro de muitos homens, e a vista
das montanhas maduras manchadas por fios que falam.
Onde está o bosque?
Acabou.
Onde está a águia?
Acabou.
O fim dos vivos e o começo da sobrevivência.”

From Wikipedia:
Eureka Tower is a 297.3-metre (975 ft) skyscraper located in the Southbank precinct of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Construction began in August 2002 and the exterior completed on 1 June 2006. The plaza was finished in June 2006 and the building was officially opened on 11 October 2006. The project was designed by Melbourne architectural firm Fender Katsalidis Architects and was built by Grocon (Grollo Australia). The developer of the tower was Eureka Tower Pty Ltd, a joint venture consisting of Daniel Grollo (Grocon), investor Tab Fried and one of the Tower's architects Nonda Katsalidis. It was the world's tallest residential tower when measured to its highest floor, until surpassed by Ocean Heights and the HHHR Tower in Dubai. It is now the fourth-tallest, after Q1 located on Queensland's Gold Coast and the two Dubai skyscrapers.
Matthiessen Surprise on black.
On the main trail at Matthiessen State Park in Illinois, there is a place called Cedar Point. From there, you can see up a small tributary that quickly turns a corner. I had always wondered what was up there and since I was completely prepared to walk through all kinds of water yesterday in my awesome Merrill water shoes, I ventured across the river and up the little stream.
It's interesting because just a few feet later, you round a small corner and you see the falls on the right. Had things been ever so slightly different at Cedar Point, you'd see the falls from there, but they are not. To see this you have to be curious enough to cross the river.
That was exciting enough but then I turned a 90 degree corner just behind where I was standing to see the table-top cascade to the left. It literally made me gasp. I love little table-top falls more then any other I think and I had no idea this was even in the park. I was actually headed over to Starved Rock later in the day to find a cascade like this, but this changed everything. I had the entire place to myself and just drank it in.
If you continue to follow the river up to the left, there are another five cascades above this one - all within about 300 yards. It may be my new favorite spot in the park.
The beautiful Statue of Liberty, Liberty Island, New York City. I took several photos of the Statue of Liberty from a ferry boat on my first trip to Liberty Island and New York City in October 2004. In this version I applied my new Photoshop filter plug-in called "Fractalius" to create a drawing effect.
INFORMATION ON THE STATUE OF LIBERTY
Liberty Enlightening the World (French: La liberté éclairant le monde), known more commonly as the Statue of Liberty (Statue de la Liberté), is a large statue that was presented to the United States by France in 1886. It stands at Liberty Island, New York in New York Harbor as a welcome to all visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans. The copper-clad statue, dedicated on October 28, 1886, commemorates the centennial of the United States and is a gesture of friendship from France to America. Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi sculpted the statue, and Alexandre Gustave Eiffel (designer of the Eiffel Tower) engineered the internal structure. Eugène Viollet-le-Duc was responsible for the choice of copper in the statue's construction and adoption of the repoussé technique.
The statue is of a female figure standing upright, dressed in a robe and a seven point spiked rays representing a nimbus (halo), holding a stone tablet close to her body in her left hand and a flaming torch high in her right hand. The tablet bears the words "JULY IV MDCCLXXVI" (July 4, 1776), commemorating the date of the United States Declaration of Independence.
The statue is made of a sheeting of pure copper, hung on a framework of steel (originally puddled iron) with the exception of the flame of the torch, which is coated in gold leaf. It stands atop a rectangular stonework pedestal with a foundation in the shape of an irregular eleven-pointed star. The statue is 151' 1" (46.5 m) tall, with the pedestal and foundation adding another 154 feet (46.9 m).
Worldwide, the Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons of the United States, and, more generally, represents liberty and escape from oppression. The Statue of Liberty was, from 1886 until the jet age, often one of the first glimpses of the United States for millions of immigrants after ocean voyages from Europe. The Statue of Liberty's obviously classical appearance (Roman stola, sandals, facial expression) derives from Libertas, ancient Rome's goddess of freedom from slavery, oppression, and tyranny. Broken shackles lie at her feet. The seven spikes in the crown represent the Seven Seas and seven continents. Her torch signifies enlightenment. The tablet in her hand shows the date of the nation's birth, July 4, 1776.
Since 1903, the statue, also known as "Lady Liberty," has been associated with Emma Lazarus's poem “The New Colossus” and has been a symbol of welcome to arriving immigrants. The interior of the pedestal contains a bronze plaque inscribed with the poem, which reads:
“Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
There are 354 steps inside the statue and its pedestal. There are 25 windows in the crown which comprise the jewels beneath the seven rays of the diadem. The tablet which the Statue holds in her left hand reads, in Roman numerals, "July 4, 1776" the day of America's independence from Britain. The Statue of Liberty was engineered to withstand heavy winds. Winds of 50 miles per hour cause the Statue to sway 3 inches (7.62 cm) and the torch to sway 5 inches (12.7 cm). This allows the Statue to move rather than break in high [wind load] conditions.

OK I have to tell you the story of the Barbies. Y'all know My 100 possibilities project is a Barbie. Well I am always on the lookout for clothes, props etc. I saw these 2 Top Model Barbies with extra outfits, shoes, and stands for 9.99 each at Food Lion. And since they are Model Muse Barbies. (Better posers) I grabbed 2 and proceeded to the checkout with my groceries. The checker asked who the Barbies were for, IDK why I did it people, but I lied and said they were for my nieces, thinking that would be the end of it. OH NO! Not to happen. Next comes the interrogation! How old are your Nieces? Where do they live?, Do they go tho School with so-n-so?, Do they watch Top Model?... OMG I wanted to shrink!
The moral of the story is, Dont Do It People.... One lie leads to another and another and another....;-)
I Thought it was Damn funny. It woulda been so much easier to explain the whole 100 possibilities project!

In 1966, NTA released Sharad of Atlantis in television syndication. It was a feature edited from the 1936 Republic serial, Undersea Kingdom. Starring Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Lon Chaney Jr., Monte Blue, Smiley Burnette. Directed by B. Reeves "Breezy" Eason.
Starring Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Lon Chaney Jr., Monte Blue, Smiley Burnette. Directed by B. Reeves "Breezy" Eason. Crash Corrigan dives to Atlantis in a submarine with his friends, Lois Wilde, C. Montague Shaw and Lee Van Atta, to save the world from the Black Robes, led by Unga Khan (Monte Blue).
Crash Corrigan, a recent graduate of Annapolis, and Diana, a go-getting reporter, join Professor Norton for a search for the source of a string of earthquakes, Atlantis. They ride Prof. Norton's rocket submarine searching the sea and little Billy Norton, the professor's son stows away, of course. When they find Atlantis they are caught in a war between peaceful Atlanteans, note their white capes, and war-monging Atlanteans, note their black capes. After many harrowing moments for Crash, Diana, Prof. Norton and Billy, they barely get away with their lives when they escape a tower of Atlantis raised to the surface for the sole purpose of dominating or destroying the Earth (Which one depends on the compliance of the upper world dwellers.)
Directed by B. Reeves Eason and former editor Joseph Kane, this Flash Gordon imitation was the second serial from a then newcomer in the field, Republic Pictures. Actually, it was only the Republic Eagle trademark that was new; Undersea Kingdom was produced by Nat Levine, formerly of Mascot Pictures, a serial kingdom all its own which had been incorporated into Republic in 1935, lock, stock, and Gene Autry. Not to be outdone by Universal's blond superhero, Undersea Kingdom had Ray "Crash" Corrigan, crash-helmet and all, diving into the ocean in a fantastic super submarine. Corrigan and his passengers -- Professor Norton (C. Montague Shaw), the professor's young son (Lee Van Atta), brash newspaperwoman Diana Compton (Lois Wilde), and a couple of sailors -- are headed toward the legendary sunken continent of Atlantis. Upon arrival, the surface people discover that the recent rash of undersea earthquakes are the work of Unga Khan (Monte Blue), the leader of the evil Black Robes whose nefarious goal is to destroy America. Unga Khan's kingdom proves to be a mixture of science-fiction gadgetry and medieval derring-do, both the Black Robes and their enemy, the White Robes, dressed like something out of a Wagnerian nightmare. The surface people ally themselves with the White Robes and in the 12th and final chapter, "Ascent to the Upperworld," Corrigan et al. finally manage to rid both worlds of the evil Khan. Republic threw everything but the kitchen sink at the Saturday matinee crowd this time around, including such veteran action and Western players as William Farnum, Raymond Hatton, Smiley Burnette, Lon Chaney Jr., Lane Chandler, Malcolm McGregor, and John Merton. Undersea Kingdom also employed most of the stunt men whose work would eventually help make Republic the pride of Poverty Row: Eddie Parker, Al Seymour, George de Normand, Tom Steele, and the Yrigoyen brothers, Bill and Joe. Undersea Kingdom was also released in an edited feature version, retitled Sharrad of Atlantis.
One of my all-time favorite serials, goofy over-the-top fun that's hard to beat. Here's the premise: a series of devastating earthquakes are investigated by kindly old Professor Norton, who theorizes that they are somehow being caused by the legendary sunken continent of Atlantis. Luckily, the prof has invented an amazing new super-submarine and he goes to check things out. Unfortunately, his party consists of two goofy stooges, a colorless girl reporter who tags along, and his little son Billy (a thrill freak who stows away). On the other hand, he's sharp enough to also bring along the very athletic and tough Naval lieutenant Ray "Crash" Corrigan, one of the best guys to have at your back in a cliffhanger.
Things get weird awful fast. The sub is drawn into a cavern ten thousand feet below the surface and here they find a lost world. Yes, in a cave deep under the ocean is the land of Atlantis, complete with sunlight and a wide open sky and trees and all that. The Professor doesn't even try to explain this, and frankly, neither will I. You just have to go with it. Atlantis is in theory ruled by the kindly high priest Sharad (finally! a decent high priest), but there is also this usurper named Unga Khan.
Although everyone else is still riding in chariots and fighting with curved swords, Unga Khan has an impressive array of advanced technology. Robots (called Volkites for some reason), flying torpedoes and death rays, an armored tank called the Juggernaut, television spy cameras, everything except Gameboys. Being one of those mad conquest-hungry types (as his name suggests), Khan is determined to bring his metal tower to the surface like a missile and launch an all-out attack on the world above.
Right off the bat, Unga Khan brainwashes Professor Norton to help him with his schemes. Crash Corrigan objects strenuously and we're off on a wild barrage of attacks and deathtraps and wrestling matches and explosions.... all the things that are great to enjoy if you're sitting comfortably on your couch instead of being in the middle of it all. The serial is full of memorable moments, but you really have to love the scene where Crash has been tied to the front of that Juggernaut thing. Behind the wheel, Lon Chaney (of all people) as the brutal Captain Hakur gives him one more chance to co-operate or he'll ram the tank right through the city gates with our hero on the front bumper. Clenching his teeth and speaking with absolute conviction, Crash says, "Go ahead and RAM!" That's the spirit, Corrigan.
It's kind of obvious that UNDERSEA KINGDOM was Republic's response to the successful Universal epic, FLASH GORDON. I mean, "Flash Gordon" - "Crash Corrigan", say them quickly together. The basic plots were the same, but although I thought UNDERSEA KINGDOM moved a bit more briskly and had better action than FLASH GORDON, there were a few areas where the second serial suffered in comparison to its inspiration. Monte Blue was okay as Unga Khan, giving his lines a lot of zest but he certainly was no match for Charles Middleton as Ming. (Now there was a villain who ranked with Fu Manchu and Professor Moriarty.)
Also, Lois Wilde as pushy reporter Diana makes no impression on me, and apparently Crash wasn't too smitten with her, either. Although most of the cast (including Crash) get to run around in bizarre tunics and crested helmets and flashy robes, Diana stays in her drab professional skirt & jacket ensemble. Compare her with Jean Rogers as Dale Arden in those teeny outfits that still cause testosterone surges in male viewers. Actually, most of the comraderie was between Crash and little Billy Norton, who idolized the big lug in a completely straight, non-suggestive kid brotherly way. Billy even got to save the day a few times, which was more than Diana or the brainwashed professor did.
The biggest misgiving I have about UNDERSEA KINGDOM is that it cheated shamelessly on some of the chapter endings. You see someone clearly drop down an elevator shaft, tumbling roughly to doom; and then next chapter opens with that person catching a projection right after falling in. Boo! Hiss! I can forgive some dodgy solutions to cliffhangers but outright cheating riles me. Showing the hero finding a last minute way out of the burning building or even just leaping out of the car before it blows up is okay, but showing events completely different from what we saw the week before just isn't playing fair.
Crash Corrigan (1902-1976, real name Raymond Bernard) makes a splendid hero. Obviously in terrific shape, he really seems like he can wrestle down two big men at a time and he delivers his lines with conviction. He would not have been a bad choice to play Tarzan or Hercules. Although Corrigan made a lot of Westerns, that's really not my field of interest (maybe someday) and I know him better for all his appearances in that inimitable gorilla suit - in fact, as the horned apelike Orangapoid, he gave Buster Crabbe a rough tangle in FLASH GORDON not long before UNDERSEA KINGDOM. Twenty years later, he played the murderous Martian creature in the very cool drive-in classic IT! THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE, often cited as an inspiration for the ALIEN movies.

There have been some outstanding photos of this place from my friends over the past year. It is a place I wanted to visit but never seemed to get to, after seeing some outstanding shots from some fellow photogs from last weekend, I decided to make the trip. The sunset wasn't anything to write home about, but that mattered less for the 10stop filter.
I tried the Lee BigStopper filter out here finally, I had been waiting for the adapters to arrive to attach the holder to my T/S E. If you're in the market for a 10stop, I recommend the BigStopper over the B&W screw on; there is no color cast with the Lee.

Walton-on-Thames is a riverside town with over 20,000 residents, situated between Sunbury Lock and Shepperton Lock, in the Borough of Elmbridge. It is only 15 miles from central London and has good communications by road, being close to the M25, M4 and M3 motorways. A fast train journey of only 25 minutes to Waterloo station makes it an ideal location for commuting to London. In fact, in 2008, a survey by the Halifax declared the Borough of Elmbridge to be the, "best place to live in Britain", with the highest quality of life in the United Kingdom. The media rapidly produced further commendations declaring Elmbridge to be the "Beverly Hills of Surrey" and claiming that even the weather here was better than the national average.
The town now has a new shopping centre, "The Heart", which is a covered mall with over 50 shops and restaurants and with outside restaurant seating. The development contains 279 apartments with views over Ashley Park. Walton-on-Thames has a modern leisure centre, the Xcel Leisure Complex, which opened in 2006, overlooking the River Thames. In addition to a 25 metre swimming pool, sports halls, climbing wall, health and fitness suite, it has an outside floodlit synthetic football pitch.
In the Domesday Book, Walton-on-Thames was recorded as, 'Waletona' and as having a church, two mills and a fishery.
The River Thames at Walton is an important crossing point. It was thought that Julius Caesar crossed here on his second invasion of Britain, but there is no evidence for this. Walton Bridge was the subject of a painting by Canaletto in 1754, but this wooden bridge was dismantled in 1783. J.M.W. Turner painted Walton Bridge in 1805, but this stone bridge collapsed in 1859. It is doubtful whether anyone would think the current structure is picturesque. It is the fifth bridge to cross the Thames at Walton and dates from 1999, when it was intended only to be temporary. Work on a new bridge is due to start in 2011 and completed in 2013.
Close to Walton Bridge is Desborough Island, which was created when the Desborough Channel was cut in 1935. It was constructed by the Thames Conservancy and named after Lord Desborough, the Chairman of the Board. The cut made a shorter journey possible by avoiding the meandering stretch of the Thames past Shepperton and Halliford.
At Walton Bridge is the garage of H.W. Motors, (Hersham and Walton Motors) who were the first Aston Martin dealership in the world. In the 1950s, they built their own racing cars and Sir Stirling Moss competed in his first Formula One Grand Prix in an H.W. Motors car.
Next to H.W. Motors is the Walton Playhouse. This is a theatre used for community productions and local amateur dramatic societies. It was built by Cecil Hepworth as a power house for Walton Film Studios. They closed in 1924 and its architect, George Carvill, bought the building. For many years, it was known as the, "Walton Hop", reputed to be the first disco in the United Kingdom. It closed in 1990.
St. Mary's Parish Church is of Saxon origin, with parts dating back to the 12th century. It is set at the highest point in the town and has a square flint tower. The churchyard contains the graves of many New Zealand soldiers who died in the First World War. Mount Felix House in Walton, which has now been demolished, was used as a hospital for New Zealand troops. The New Zealand connection is maintained in the street name, 'New Zealand Avenue' and the Wellington pub in the town centre.
As would be expected, the riverside pubs have been visited by notable characters. In 1909, Jerome Kern, the composer of the Broadway musical, "Showboat" and many popular songs, including Ol' Man River, met Eva Leale, the landlord's daughter at the Swan pub. They were married at St. Mary's Church, Walton the following year. The Anglers pub, with its seating on the riverbank, is very popular. A short walk along the towpath towards Hampton Court brings you to The Weir Hotel. Overlooking the Weir, this pub is extremely popular with walkers and cyclists, especially on Sundays, where people enjoy their roast dinners.
Walton-on-Thames has had many famous residents, but Julie Andrews is probably the most notable. She was born Julia Wells in 1935 in Rodney House Maternity Hospital, Rodney Road. She became, at fourteen, the youngest ever solo performer to appear at a Royal Variety Performance in 1948 at the London Palladium. She married her first husband, Tony Walton, in St. Mary's Church, Oatlands, Weybridge in 1959. Her most famous role was as Maria Von Trapp in the film, "The Sound of Music", which became 20th Century Fox's biggest ever film.
In Station Avenue, is a 1960s iconic office building. Formerly the head office of Birds Eye Frozen Foods, it is now a Grade II listed building. My sister worked there and remembers that there were live penguins in the grounds.
Next year will be an exciting time for Walton-on-Thames, when the 2012 Olympic Games commences. On the opening day of the 2012 Games, on Saturday 28th July, the Mens' Cycling Road Race (250km) starts from the Mall in London. The 145 riders will head towards Walton and race along Hurst Road from Hampton Court into Terrace Road, into Walton Town Centre, down Oatlands Drive to Weybridge and then onto the Surrey Hills. The womens' race takes place the following day over a shorter (140km) route, but still through Walton. The 2012 Olympic Games Cycling Time Trials will be held close by on 1st August at Hampton Court. The whole 13 mile section of the route which cuts through Elmbridge will be surfaced with electric blue non-slip Tarmac. This is the internationally recognised cycling blue used on time trials. The blue colour means overhead cameras can track competitors using matt black background enhancements.
On 14th August, 2011, an official test event for the 2012 Summer Olympics Road Race took place over the Olympic route, from The Mall in London, through Walton-on-Thames, to Box Hill, returning to the Mall, passing through Esher. This was the London – Surrey Cycle Classic Race. It was won by Mark Cavendish, MBE, aged 26. He is the top sprinter in the Tour de France, having won twenty stages and in September 2011, went on to win the Road World Championship in Denmark. On 22nd December 2011, Mark was voted the 2011 BBC Sports Personality of the Year. He is probably Great Britain’s best prospect for a gold medal in 2012. It is hoped that he can repeat his success next year.

Le vacarme des mollahs dans leur course aux armes atomiques, le sifflement strident de leurs bombes qui déchiquettent l’Irak et les hurlements de peur et de terreur qu’ils sèment dans le pays, ne sont pas la voix de l’Iran.
La voix de l’Iran retentit à travers les slogans des jeunes Moudjahidine et militants qui dans le soulèvement contre le rationnement de l’essence lancent « Mort au dictateur ! ».
La voix de l’Iran, ce sont les cris des femmes courageuses, le visage couvert de sang, qui dans le face à face avec les gardiens de la révolution ces derniers mois, ont bouleversé le monde.
La voix de l’Iran, c’est la voix d’Elham, cette fillette de 10 ans au rassemblement des enseignants protestataires à Téhéran, qui parle de son père en prison et fait pleurer des milliers d’enseignants.
Le cri de l’Iran, c’est le cri des ouvriers qui scandaient le 1er mai « On ne veut pas du nucléaire, on veut de quoi vivre et du travail», et « un avenir, c’est notre droit inaliénable ».
La voix de l’Iran, ce sont les battements des cœurs oppressés de 71 adolescents condamnés à mort.
La voix de l’Iran, ce sont les lamentations des mères kurdes et baloutches et des femmes arabes du Khouzistan qui pleurent la mort de leurs fils pendus ces derniers mois dans les rues de Sanandaj, Zahedan et Ahwaz.
La voix de l’Iran, ce sont les slogans des étudiants de Polytechnique et des universités de tout le pays qui crient « Mort au dictateur ! ».
La voix de l’Iran, ce sont les hurlements de douleur dans les salles de torture des mollahs. « Je suis encore vivant, ma voix ne s’est pas éteinte, je brise le silence d’un millier dans la section 209. »
La voix de l’Iran c’est le grondement des Moudjahidine de la liberté, qui appellent depuis la Cité d’Achraf, les Iraniens à se lever pour la liberté.
Et nous aujourd’hui, d’une seule voix avec les Iraniens insurgés, nous crions qu’au lieu du régime des mollahs, il faut instaurer la liberté et la souveraineté populaire.
Oui, c’est ça la voix de l’Iran.
Le soulèvement général des 26 et 27 juin déclenché par la crise de l’essence, montre le véritable visage d’une société exaspérée au bord de l’explosion. Ce soulèvement est le témoignage le plus objectif et le plus clair des revendications brûlantes des Iraniens. Ils veulent renverser le régime des mollahs.
Les cris de « Mort à Ahmadinejad » qui ont immédiatement retenti dans les rues de Téhéran, les charges courageuses des insurgés contre les centres du pouvoir et la panique qui s’est emparée du régime, tout montrait que cela dépassait de loin une crise économique. Il s’agit d’une crise qui marque la phase terminale du régime et sa destruction.
C’est en instaurant un couvre-feu, en arrêtant des centaines de personnes et en faisant des morts et des blessés parmi les jeunes, que le régime a répondu. Le guide suprême des mollahs a donné l’ordre d’agir fermement, en faisant des exemples. Mais ce qui est exemplaire, c’est la défaite cuisante que le soulèvement populaire vient d’infliger aux mollahs et à leurs alliés.
En une heure, toute la démagogie de ces deux dernières années où ils disaient vouloir partager les revenus pétroliers avec le peuple, est partie en fumée.
Tous les slogans du pouvoir sur le programme atomique, comme quoi « l’énergie nucléaire est notre droit inaliénable », ont disparu dans les flammes du soulèvement.
Toute la propagande des apologistes de la complaisance sur la stabilité et la puissance des mollahs, s’est évanouie. Et la marque de terroriste qu’ils collent à la résistance pour la liberté, a brûlé dans le feu de l’insurrection.
Et maintenant c’est au tour du peuple iranien de demander : avec toutes ces annonces sur les progrès scientifiques pour justifier le programme nucléaire contraire aux intérêts de la nation, comment se fait-il qu’en trente ans vous n’ayez même pas été capables de construire une raffinerie pour produire de l’essence ? Pourquoi tout cet argent que vous avez dilapidé pour fabriquer une bombe atomique, vous ne l’avez pas utilisé pour raffiner de l’essence ? Pourquoi en imposant ce rationnement de l’essence, avez-vous détruit en une nuit la source de revenus d’une immense partie de la population ? Pourquoi tout à coup, avez-vous réduit au chômage et à la misère des millions de personnes ?
Ils n’ont pas de réponse, parce qu’ils sont au bout du chemin. Ils ne savent rien faire d’autre que réprimer et exporter le terrorisme et l’intégrisme. Ils sont dans une impasse.
C’est pourquoi ces deux dernières années, tout ce que les Etats partisans de la complaisance ont misé ou prétendu sur le régime des mollahs, s’est avéré faux.
Ils ont dit qu’en encourageant les mollahs, ils changeraient leur comportement. Or au lieu de changer, les mollahs ont enfoncé l’Irak dans un bain de sang, ont entraîné le Liban dans le chaos, ont divisé en deux la Palestine et ont ramené le terrorisme et l’effusion de sang en Afghanistan.
Ces Etats ont dit qu’avec les marchandages et les négociations, ils obtiendraient l’accord des mollahs pour suspendre leur programme atomique. Or ces derniers ont développé leurs activités pour fabriquer des armes nucléaires et ont ignoré trois résolutions du Conseil de Sécurité de l’ONU.
Ils prétendaient qu’un embargo pousserait les Iraniens à soutenir le régime, ils peuvent ouvrir les yeux maintenant et voir ce soulèvement général. Et cela se passe alors que l’étiquette de terroriste collée à la résistance permet aux mollahs de maîtriser les effets des sanctions. Imaginez alors ce qui se passera, le jour où cette étiquette de terrorisme disparaîtra !
Oui, le problème c’est que toutes les politiques face à la crise iranienne ont abouti à un échec. Pour l’Iran, la région et l’Irak, il n’y a qu’une solution et c’est un changement démocratique réalisé par le peuple iranien et sa résistance.
Le choix des Iraniens, c’est la liberté et la démocratie. C’est pour elles que Satarkhan, notre héro national, s’est battu en 1908. C’était la grande espérance de Mossadegh dans les années 1950. Et c’est le but de la résistance érigée par Massoud Radjavi. Nous ne baisserons pas les bras pas tant que nous ne l’aurons pas atteint.
Il y a deux jours, l’Union européenne, comme on pouvait le prévoir, après sept mois de fraude et d’intrigues, a finalement piétiné le verdict de la Cour de Justice Européenne et dans une mesure illégale, a maintenu le nom des Moudjahidine sur la liste en servant les intérêts du parrain du terrorisme.
À cause de la clarté du verdict supprimant le nom de l’OMPI de cette liste, le Conseil des Ministres a été incapable d’en publier une pendant 13 mois. Il devait choisir entre deux voies : soit supprimer l’OMPI de la liste et brouiller ses relations avec le régime des mollahs, soit être frappé de honte et de discrédit pour avoir violé un arrêt de justice et coopéré avec le régime des mollahs.
Il a finalement choisi le scandale. Mais il doit savoir que la complicité avec les bourreaux des enfants et des jeunes en Iran, la collaboration avec les responsables du massacre de la population en Irak et l’ennemi de la paix dans la région et l’assistance fournie aux banquiers du terrorisme dans le monde, est une tache honteuse qui souillera à jamais l’histoire de l’Europe.
J’appelle toutes les femmes et tous les hommes libres d’Europe, quelle que soit leur fonction, à prendre leur distance avec cette tache honteuse et à obliger le Conseil des Ministres de l’Union européenne à se plier au verdict et à la loi. La Résistance iranienne utilisera tous les moyens politiques et juridiques légitimes, pour faire appliquer ce verdict et pour faire supprimer le nom de l’OMPI de la liste noire.
Au lendemain de ce verdict, le Conseil des Ministres européen aurait pu faire appel, mais il a préféré désobéir à la décision de justice. Puis il a fraudé pour dissimuler son infraction.
Le 30 janvier, le Conseil des Ministres européen a annoncé son intention de maintenir cette inscription. En même temps, il a demandé à la Résistance iranienne de présenter les raisons pour lesquelles elle rejette cette accusation, en lui donnant un mois de délai. La décision de maintenir l’OMPI sur la liste est une infraction et la demande de documents une fraude évidente.
Car ils avaient déjà pris la décision de contourner le verdict de la cour de justice. Dans les documents qu’ils ont remis récemment aux avocats, il est dit que le 18 décembre, c'est-à-dire six jours à peine après le verdict, ils ont abordé dans une réunion les « étapes nécessaires pour maintenir le nom de l’OMPI dans la liste ».
C’est ce que ces messieurs du Conseil des Ministres appellent la démocratie !
Au lieu d’examiner et de faire des recherches, ils font des réunions pour savoir par quelle tactique frauduleuse ils peuvent maintenir l’OMPI sur la liste noire.
Tandis que le Conseil des Ministres, dans des lettres successives, a prétendu que la décision finale n’avait pas encore été prise, Tony Blair, l’ancien Premier ministre britannique, a reconnu que la décision avait été adoptée au mois de janvier. C’est-à-dire avant que la Résistance, conformément au délai d’un mois, ne remette ses documents. Le bureau de la Chancelière allemande a dévoilé une autre contradiction, en disant que la décision avait été prise au mois de février.
Par conséquent ce mois de délai est une véritable supercherie.
Ils ont prétendu que le verdict ne portait que sur la procédure. Ils ont prétendu que le verdict n’annulait que la décision de 2005 de l’Union européenne et ne concernait pas celle de l’année suivante.
Mais comme l’a montré Lord Slynn dans son précieux avis juridique, c’est là une allégation trompeuse. Le Conseil a accepté l’annulation de sa décision de 2005. De même, il a reconnu au tribunal que conformément à un article du traité européen, toute autre décision de substitution devait être annulée.
Par conséquent le Conseil des Ministres a enfreint ouvertement ses obligations vis-à-vis du traité européen. Ce qui s’est passé, c’est une violation des droits fondamentaux, et cela va bien au-delà de la procédure et de la manière dont sont prises les décisions. Ce sont donc les droits du peuple iranien qui ont été violés.
Oui, toute la dispute porte sur les droits du peuple iranien et avec cette inscription sur la liste noire, ils ont été livrés sur un plateau au régime des mollahs. Mais sachez que nous et notre peuple, nous arracherons ces droits usurpés des griffes des mollahs
Des documents douteux ;
Le Conseil des Ministres européen a été obligé à la suite des demandes répétées des avocats, de leur remettre ses documents sur les accusations de terrorisme.
Le Conseil a certainement dépensé beaucoup de temps et d’énergie pour rassembler ces documents. Mais la montagne a fini par accoucher d’une souris, et au lieu de documents juridiques valables, il a transmis une poignée de papiers sans valeur.
Une partie de ces papiers n’a pas de sources et on ne sait pas d’où ils sortent. D’autres ne sont pas datés. Certains ne portent même pas le nom des Moudjahidine du peuple et n’ont aucun rapport avec l’OMPI. D’autres enfin ont été pris sur des sites Internet douteux.
Est-ce qu’il s’agit de documents juridiques ou de futilités qui déshonorent l’Union européenne et nous font perdre du temps ? Et n’aurait-il pas été préférable qu’ils aient le courage de dire qu’ils n’avaient rien ?
Ecoutez : Un de ces documents dit que puisque le ministre de l’Intérieur britannique avait mis le mouvement de la résistance dans la liste du terrorisme en 2001, il s’agissait donc de terroristes. Un proverbe persan dit : Quand on demande au renard de produire un témoin, il désigne sa queue ! Ce qui est intéressant, c’est que ce ministre a souligné à deux reprises l’an passé qu’il avait mis l’OMPI dans la liste à la demande des mollahs.
Dans un autre document, on prétend que cette résistance ne bénéficie d’aucun soutien en Iran. Bien ! Quel rapport avec l’accusation de terrorisme ? D’ailleurs, cela montre que la complaisance avec les mollahs, n’a pas seulement privé ces messieurs de lucidité et de raison, elle les a aussi privés de la vue. Alors messieurs, ouvrez les yeux et regardez la base populaire de cette résistance. Vous ne voyez donc pas quelle tempête les jeunes Moudjahidine et militants ont soulevée ces jours-ci.
Ecoutez encore : un autre document intéressant sur le prétendu terrorisme de cette résistance. On peut y lire : il y a huit ans, lors d’un débat au parlement britannique, le représentant du gouvernement a rejeté les déclarations de la Résistance iranienne en disant que le résultat de l’élection présidentielle de Khatami renforçait l’optimisme sur le développement des futures relations entre l’Iran et la Grande-Bretagne.
Quel rapport il y a-t-il entre votre optimisme sur le mollah Khatami, l’avancée des dites réformes en Iran, et coller l’étiquette de terrorisme à cette résistance ? D’ailleurs, maintenant qu’à la place des réformes, la bande la plus extrémiste du régime est arrivée au pouvoir et met le monde à feu et à sang, jugez par vous-mêmes : Etait-ce de l’optimisme ou de la stupidité ?
Et voici encore un autre document qui dit : Le mouvement de la résistance s’est exilé en 1981 et il est parti en Irak. Là où actuellement se trouve une armée de plusieurs milliers de combattants et où ils sont soutenus par le régime irakien.
Mais enfin Messieurs ! Cela fait environ quatre ans que l’ancien régime irakien a été renversé et qu’il n’existe plus ! Vous ne voyez donc pas que les Moudjahidine du peuple ne sont plus armés depuis quatre ans ?
«Balivernes ! Etes-vous ivres, auriez-vous perdu la tête ou faites-vous exprès?»
Mais il y a encore un document très significatif : Le Conseil des Ministres brandit un article publié il y a dix ans dans la presse internationale comme un de ses documents. On peut y lire que cette résistance « est toujours la plus forte opposition à un régime qui est un hors-la-loi international… »
Alors c’est clair, votre crime, c’est d’être l’opposition la plus forte à un régime hors-la-loi.
Mais voilà un autre crime, selon un document du Conseil des Ministres: « Les dirigeants du Conseil national de la Résistance disent que lorsque le moment opportun sera venu, cette résistance se lèvera en soutien au soulèvement général contre le gouvernement intégriste. Ils disent : Nous avons l’intention de coordonner cette résistance avec la montée des troubles sociaux pour balayer les mollahs. »
Alors votre crime, c’est aussi d’attiser les protestations et les soulèvements de votre peuple et d’y apporter votre soutien.
Messieurs, il faut vous dire que nous ne cesserons jamais de lutter pour la liberté. Jamais nous ne cesserons. Jamais nous ne cesserons d’attiser les protestations des étudiants, des ouvriers, des enseignant et de les soutenir. C’est un combat que nous mènerons jusqu’à la victoire.
Oui, selon ce document, le plan de cette résistance pour écarter les mollahs revient à s’appuyer sur un soulèvement populaire.
Vous voyez ? D’un coté ils prétendent que la résistance est terroriste, puisqu’elle n’a pas de base populaire. Et d’un autre ils prétendent qu’elle est terroriste puisqu’elle s’appuie sur un soulèvement populaire.
Alors que faut-il croire ?
Ni l’un ni l’autre. Ce qu’il faut croire, c’est que les grandes puissances occidentales ont réprimé la solution dont elles disent qu’elle s’appuie sur un soulèvement populaire. Ainsi donc ce document du Conseil des Ministres est un document sur le crime des partisans de la complaisance.
Oui, Messieurs, vous êtes coupables. Vous êtes coupables d’avoir taxé de terrorisme la résistance contre le fascisme religieux. Vous êtes coupables de faire croire au monde qu’il n’y a pas de solution à la crise iranienne. Et il ne fait aucun doute que vous serez déshonorés devant les Nations européennes.
Je suis heureuse que vous disiez que les papiers caducs, contradictoires et trompeurs qui violent la loi, n’ont aucune légitimité dans l’Europe d’aujourd’hui.
Depuis l’annonce du verdict de la Cour européenne de Justice, plus de mille parlementaires de divers pays d’Europe ont condamné le refus du Conseil des Ministres d’appliquer le verdict. Un grand nombre d’organes parlementaires ont protesté à travers des déclarations, des résolutions et des lettres officielles, notamment dans les parlements britannique, français, allemand, italien, hollandais, danois, polonais et tchèque, contre la position du Conseil des Ministres.
C’est là que nous devons répéter la question du Dr. Vidal Quadras, vice-président du Parlement européen : Il y a-t-il quelqu’un qui pense que mille parlementaires de pays démocratiques se trompent tous ensemble?
Nous aussi nous avons des questions : lorsque vous ignorez les résolutions et les décrets de lois des plus hauts organes parlementaires en Europe et lorsque vous piétinez un arrêt de justice, que reste-t-il de la démocratie ?
Quand vous prenez vos décisions unilatéralement et en secret, que reste-t-il de la démocratie ?
Mais est-ce que la démocratie ce n’est pas répondre de ses actes, ce n’est pas écouter des avis différents, ce n’est pas respecter l’état de droit et la transparence?
Alors ce centre secret au cœur de l’Union européenne qui décide sur les accusations de terrorisme, qu’est-ce que c’est ? Un palais de verre noir mystérieux du nom de Clearing House, dont on ne connaît ni l’emplacement, ni les membres, ni le calendrier.
Est-ce qu’il s’agit d’un organe européen conforme aux normes démocratiques ou d’une arrière-salle obscure? Mais laissez-nous dire aux occupants de cette arrière-salle obscure que même s’ils jettent les droits du peuple iranien dans la gueule d’un monstre, nous irons les en retirer.
Quand le 17 juin 2003, dans le but de détruire la résistance, le gouvernement de M. Chirac a lancé contre les bureaux du Conseil national de la Résistance iranienne une véritable armada, il a étendu les frontières de la complaisance de manière incroyable en participant directement à la répression de la population iranienne. Il s’est abaissé à être l’exécutant de la dictature religieuse.
Ils ont été si loin dans cette voie qu’ils ont ouvert les portes aux agents des services secrets des mollahs, pour qu’ici même à Paris, il commettent des crimes à l’arme blanche et préparent le terrain à des attentats terroristes.
À la recherche d’accords économiques, les gouvernements européens, et à leur tête Paris, prétendaient vouloir modérer le régime des mollahs. Mais quel en a été le résultat ?
Au lieu de se modérer, les mollahs ont mis Ahmadinejad au pouvoir et se sont consacrés à la bombe atomique et à dévorer l’Irak. Le phénomène Ahmadinejad, c’est le résultat de l’alliance du fascisme religieux et de la politique de complaisance.
Mais en vérité, ce que les grandes puissances occidentales n’ont toujours pas pris en compte, c’est que la Résistance iranienne constitue la clé majeure et la plus efficace des événements en Iran et dans cette région. Il y a 27 ans, Khomeiny avait dit que son principal ennemi n’était ni l’Amérique ni l’URSS, mais les Moudjahidine du peuple. Aujourd’hui aussi, Khamenei son disciple, montre que les porte-avions américains dans le Golfe persique ne représentent pas un vrai danger pour son pouvoir, ni les pressions internationales, mais que ce sont bien les Moudjahidine du peuple, la Cité d’Achraf et la Résistance iranienne, c’est-à-dire ceux qui inspirent les soulèvements et les protestations explosives de la société iranienne, qui représentent un danger pour l’existence de son régime.
C’est un danger qui fait trembler les mollahs nuit et jour. C’est contre cela qu’ils veulent se doter de la bombe atomique pour maintenir leur pouvoir vacillant. Mais la tornade de liberté que le peuple iranien soulèvera, particulièrement les femmes et les jeunes, balaiera tout leur appareil de répression cruelle.
Au début de ce mois, le ministère britannique des Affaires étrangères a envoyé une réponse à la plainte déposée par des parlementaires amis de la Résistance contre l’étiquette de terrorisme. Il souligne que les ministres et les autorités du régime des mollahs ont discuté avec leurs homologues en Angleterre et dans l’Union européenne à d’innombrables reprises des Moudjahidine du peuple et de la résistance.
Oui, à d’innombrables reprises et lors d’innombrables marchandages sur le dos de la résistance.
Le ministère britannique des Affaires étrangères dit qu’il a mené ces discussions avec le régime des mollahs pendant des années et qu’il voulait échanger des informations sur les activités de l’OMPI en Grande-Bretagne, en Iran et en Irak avec le régime iranien.
Oui, échanger des informations et fomenter des complots contre le mouvement de la résistance.
Le ministère des Affaires étrangères anglais a averti dans sa lettre que toute action visant à supprimer l’OMPI de la liste entraînerait la déstabilisation du régime. Oui, c’est le cœur du problème : supprimer l’OMPI de la liste ferait trembler les fondements des mollahs car leur destinée est entre les mains de cette résistance.
Le ministère des Affaires étrangères anglais dans cette lettre révèle pour la première fois que le régime lui avait demandé six mois avant la guerre contre l’Irak quels seraient les effets d’une éventuelle intervention militaire en Irak sur la Résistance iranienne. Les autorités anglaises avaient donné l’assurance qu’elles prendraient au sérieux le cas de la Résistance iranienne en Irak.
Oui, elles allaient le prendre au sérieux en bombardant les centres de la Résistance. Elles ont bombardé la Cité d’Achraf 120 fois en une seule nuit.
La force qui garantit la solution pour cette région a été bombardée et désarmée. Quelle en a été la conséquence ? Les mollahs et les gardiens de la révolution se sont déversés par milliers en Irak et ont plongé cette nation opprimée et blessée dans un tourbillon de sang. Cette erreur fatale des grandes puissances occidentales a enchaîné la Résistance iranienne.
Par conséquent, Messieurs, nous vous appelons à changer cette politique désastreuse, à quitter le camp des mollahs et à accepter le verdict de la Cour européenne de justice. C’est dans votre intérêt, et ce sera un pas déterminant pour mettre fin à la politique de complaisance.
Mais en ce qui concerne cette résistance, ses amis et ses partisans, c’est une lutte promise à une victoire certaine. La volonté d’airain, le sacrifice, la foi et les efforts incessants des membres de cette Résistance et du peuple iranien, casseront l’accusation de terrorisme et avanceront jusqu’à la victoire finale. Cela ne fait aucun doute.
La politique française
Nous appelons aussi la France à mettre fin à la politique qui sous le mandat de M. Chirac avait fait de ce pays le principal allié du fascisme religieux. Le dossier du 17 juin est l’héritage le plus infâme du gouvernement précédent. Ce dossier sert littéralement à maintenir sous contrôle le mouvement de la Résistance iranienne au profit des mollahs. Il est maintenu ouvert pour cette raison.
Ce dossier est sans fondement d’un point de vue juridique et c’est un complot d’un point de vue politique. Dans l’histoire juridique de la France, c’est une affaire sans précédent depuis la seconde guerre mondiale. Ils sont tellement à court, qu’ils ont dû engager des agents des services secrets des mollahs pour servir de témoins.
Ce dossier qui est depuis le début dans une impasse, particulièrement depuis le verdict historique de la Cour européenne de justice, s’est aussi effondré sur le fond.
Lors des élections présidentielles en France, le nouveau président de la République a maintes fois parlé d’une France nouvelle et a promis le changement. Mais je dois rappeler qu’en ce qui concerne l’Iran, ce changement n’aura d’autre signification que de mettre fin à la politique de complaisance qui s’est avérée un échec. La page noire que le dossier du 17 juin a ouvert dans les relations entre la France et le peuple iranien, doit être tournée. C’est le critère le plus important du changement. Ainsi donc, le peuple iranien jugera la nouvelle politique de la France à l’aune de ce qu’elle fera dans la pratique.
Oui, écoutez les Français qui ont, durant toutes ces années, porté au plus haut la solidarité et le soutien à cette résistance. Vive les Français au grand cœur qui se sont élevés contre la politique de complaisance. Permettez-moi ici de leur dire toute ma gratitude :
(en français dans le texte)
« Mesdames et Messieurs, Chers Amis,
Je salue chacun d’entre vous, votre présence ici démontre la solidarité et l’amitié profonde entre le peuple français et le peuple iranien. En Iran, les femmes, les étudiants, les ouvriers et les autres couches en colère de la société qui se sont soulevés plusieurs fois ces derniers mois contre le régime des mollahs, se sentent soutenus en vous voyant.
La Cité d’Achraf en Irak, où se trouvent les Moudjahidine du peuple qui résistent à une vague de terreur de l’intégrisme des mollahs se sent soutenue en vous voyant. Pour eux vous incarnez les valeurs essentielles de l’Europe, comme la démocratie, la justice et l’état de droit. Et dans les Français, ils voient la liberté, l’égalité et la fraternité et la France des droits de l’homme. Une France qui n’est pas aux cotés du fascisme religieux. Une France qui ne participe pas à la répression de l’opposition. Une France qui respecte l’aspiration des Iraniens à la liberté, l’état de droit, la laïcité et l’égalité.
Les événements de ces quatre dernières années montrent que la solidarité précieuse des Français a joué un grand rôle face à la politique de complaisance. Face à la rafle du 17 juin 2003, vous avez soutenu la résistance. Vous avez défendu ce mouvement face à la campagne de diabolisation. Vous avez condamné la fabrication de dossier et la manipulation de la justice. Et vous vous êtes élevés courageusement face à l’accusation honteuse de terrorisme et face au refus d’appliquer le jugement de la Cour européenne.
Je suis honorée de votre amitié, et votre solidarité est désormais écrite en lettres d’or dans l’histoire de l’Iran.»
L’ingérence des mollahs en Irak
Mes chers compatriotes,
La vie pleine de souffrances du peuple irakien, rend nécessaire l’importance d’une solution juste et réelle. Chaque jour en Irak, une centaine de personnes au moins roulent dans leur sang. A la fin de chaque journée, 400 enfants deviennent orphelins. Chaque jour, les femmes et les filles sans abris deviennent la cible d’agressions et de harcèlements, et chaque jour des milliers d’Irakiens innocents se retrouvent sans abri.
Ce terrible massacre est planifié à Téhéran dans un état-major supervisé par le guide suprême des mollahs, Khamenei. Parce que si ce régime ne réussit pas à appliquer son plan funeste pour s’emparer de l’Irak, il sera incapable d’assurer sa survie à Téhéran.
Il y a quatre ans, j’avais averti que le danger de l’ingérence du régime iranien en Irak était cent fois plus dangereux que son projet atomique. Au cours des quatre dernières années, ce régime a mis en œuvre sa politique d’occupation rampante de l’Irak. Il est devenu désormais l’occupant principal.
Massoud Radjavi dans son message d’il y a deux semaines au Congrès de la solidarité pour la paix et la liberté du peuple irakien a souligné : « le problème principal en Irak, c’est l’affrontement et la guerre entre deux alternatives sur le sol irakien dans cette conjoncture particulière. L’alternative des mollahs au pouvoir en Iran face à l’alternative irakienne. L’alternative du régime fasciste des mollahs avec tous ses réseaux, ses agents et ceux qui les soutiennent, face à l’alternative anti-fasciste irakienne avec tous ses mouvements, ses groupes, ses partis,ses personnalités démocratiques et patriotiques et ceux qui les soutiennent sur la scène arabe et internationale. »
C’est sur cette base que 5,2 millions d’Irakiens ont affirmé dans une déclaration que la solution est « d’évincer d’Irak le régime iranien et de reconnaître le statut des Moudjahidine du peuple qui sont le contrepoids à l’ingérence du pouvoir iranien. »
Aujourd’hui le régime de Téhéran, voit dans les Moudjahidine du peuple un tel barrage à son ingérence en Irak que, contrairement à toutes les conventions et lois internationales, il ne supporte même pas leur présence non armée et toutes ses restrictions dans ce pays. Comme le dit Massoud Radjavi, c’est là que se trouve le talon d’Achille du monstre de l’intégrisme. Le critère du changement démocratique en Iran est entre les mains de la Résistance du peuple iranien.
Il y a deux semaines dans un rassemblement de 10.000 Irakiens, une déclaration signée par 450.000 habitants de la province de Diyala dont 21 partis, associations et groupes divers, annonçait que toutes les forces nationales et démocratiques de la région de Diyala, de toutes les couches sociales, tribus et religions, se tenaient aux cotés des Moudjahidine de la cité d’Achraf. Et toute agression, accusation et mensonge contre l’OMPI serait considéré comme contraire aux intérêts du peuple irakien. Je rends hommage du fond du cœur aux habitants de la province de Diyala et au noble peuple d’Irak.
Permettez-moi ici d’aborder un sujet sur la tragédie des enfants en Irak. Il y a une dizaine de jours, les chaînes internationales ont montré des images terribles sur un orphelinat là-bas, des enfants innocents dont les parents avaient été assassinés. Ces enfants avaient été torturés, affamés et même violés. Les revenus pétroliers de l’Irak sont pillés par milliards par les mollahs au pouvoir en Iran, tandis que les orphelins irakiens connaissent ces conditions de vie.
Par conséquent, nous proposons aux Nations Unies de prendre en charge un nombre d’orphelins irakiens en mettant à leur disposition tous les moyens que nous possédons. Je propose en particulier que la Résistance iranienne, sous le contrôle de l’UNICEF et conformément à ses critères, prenne en charge mille enfants irakiens et toutes leurs dépenses à la Cité d’Achraf. C’est une proposition purement humanitaire loin de toute considération politique et de propagande. Nous donnerons aussi cette proposition à l’ambassade d’Irak à Paris et nous espérons que le gouvernement actuel irakien donnera son accord à ce plan humanitaire pour mille enfants innocents et que sur ce sujet il ne fera pas cas de l’opposition du régime des mollahs.
Les Moudjahidine du peuple d’Iran
Mes chers compatriotes,
Durant l’offensive des intégristes qui veulent répandre partout la terreur avec une cruauté sans précédent, la ténacité de cette résistance et des Moudjahidine du peuple ouvre des horizons brillants et ravive la flamme de l’espoir dans le cœur d’une société opprimée.
A tel point que les mollahs ont été obligés de fabriquer des séries télévisées pour contrer la vague de sympathie qui pousse les jeunes vers la résistance. Ils n’ont pas le courage d’avouer que toutes ces mises en scène et ces allégations prétendant la fin de la résistance, ont échoué. Ils ont peur de dire que tous ces dossiers fabriqués et ces accusations contre la résistance sont tombés à l’eau. Ils se réfugient alors dans de la propagande hystérique. Mais sachez que si vous consacrez 24 heures sur 24 vos programmes radio télévisés et votre presse contre cette résistance, vous ne pourrez empêcher le renversement de votre théocratie.
Tout le monde sait qu’il y a quatre ans, les coups politiques et militaires les plus durs comparables à un tsunami ont frappé ce mouvement : du désarmement, aux bombardements jusqu’a la rafle du 17 juin. Des coups si durs que si un dixième d’entre eux avait frappé le régime des mollahs, il ne fait aucun doute qu’il aurait renoncé à tout. Mais ce mouvement est sorti de cette crise plus fort, la tête haute et s’est transformé en une menace encore plus grande pour le régime des mollahs.
Alors, quel est le secret de cette résistance et des Moudjahidine ? Quelle est la source de cette détermination ? Comment plusieurs fois tel un phoenix ont-t-ils ressuscité de leurs douleurs et de leurs cendres ? Et dans une situation où les partis politiques les plus puissants dans le monde sont en proie aux déchirements et aux divisions, comment préservent-ils leur unité et renforcent-ils leur développement ?
En plus du sacrifice et de la sincérité, ce secret repose dans l’existence d’une direction compétente et d’une démocratie avancée dans les relations internes, basée sur le libre choix conscient de chacun de ses membres.
Le libre choix, c’est la pierre angulaire de l’amitié profonde et de l’unité interne, de la créativité, du sens des responsabilités et de la qualité humaine dans ce mouvement. C’est pour cette raison que ce mouvement est l’annonciateur de la liberté de choix pour le peuple iranien. Dès le premier jour, Massoud Radjavi avait dit que les Moudjahidine sont là pour se sacrifier afin que le peuple iranien puisse bénéficier de la liberté de choix.
Le secret, c’est aussi qu’ils croient en la victoire au plus profond d’eux-mêmes. Mais ils n’en tirent pas leur motivation et n’ont pas passé leur existence sur des chemins tout tracés sinon ils n’auraient jamais étés capables de résister face au monstre de l’intégrisme.
Des êtres débordant d’espoirs, des êtres tenaces et patients, qui résistent aux tempêtes, qui ont la certitude que le soleil brille au-delà des nuages sombres, et qui ont atteint une étape étonnante des capacités humaines.
Ils rendent possible l’impossible avec une formidable endurance, en acceptant des engagements surprenants et avec un amour sans faille.
Comme le disait Dolores Ibárruri, la Pasionaria : « Racontez à vos enfants à propos de ceux qui ont traversé les océans, les montagnes et les frontières protégées par des baïonnettes, dites-leur que même quand ils étaient menacés par des meutes de chiens qui cherchaient à les dévorer, ils ont renoncé à tout : à leur amour, à leur pays, à leur foyer, à leur richesse, à leur père, à leur mère, à leur conjoint, à leurs frères et leurs sœurs et à leurs enfants … pour nous dire qu’ils sont là pour défendre notre idéal, l’idéal progressiste de toute l’humanité. »
Oui, il y a un idéal, issu des demandes les plus profondes et les plus essentielles du peuple iranien pour lesquelles 120.000 de ses enfants les plus nobles et des symboles comme Neda et Sedigheh, ont donné leur vie. Le souvenir de ces héros restera à jamais dans nos cœurs.
L’Iran de demain
Mes chers compatriotes,
Que les partisans de la complaisance le veuillent ou non, le temps des mollahs est révolu. Nous allons tourner la page de l’oppression et de la souffrance.
- Nous allons bâtir un nouvel Iran, une société libre, un pays de progrès.
- Nous laisserons derrière nous l’époque des exécutions et de la torture.
- Nous abolirons la peine de mort.
- Nous débarrasserons le pays de ces tribunaux intégristes et de ces châtiments moyenâgeux.
- Nous mettrons fin à l’époque de l’inquisition, du code vestimentaire obligatoire et de l’ingérence dans la vie privée.
- Nous mettrons fin à l’époque de l’oppression et de la répression tragique des femmes en Iran. Dans tous les domaines, les femmes auront les mêmes droits et libertés que les hommes, les femmes participeront à part égale à la direction politique de la société.
- L’époque de l’humiliation des jeunes, l’époque du gaspillage de l’énergie et de la créativité sont révolues. L’Iran libre sera un pays où les jeunes participeront activement à l’édification de leur propre avenir.
- Nous instaurerons un pouvoir basé sur la séparation de la religion et de l’Etat pour que les adeptes des diverses religions et croyances puissent vivre de manière égale cote à cote.
- Un peuple avec autant de talents ne doit plus vivre dans la misère, dans la faim et le chômage.
- Il faudra mettre en place des conditions pour l’investissement et une concurrence économique saine et mettre fin au système de rente et de pillage.
- Il faudra reconstruire l’agriculture et l’industrie dévastées du pays, remplacer le système d’enseignement, d’hygiène et de santé par un système moderne et adapté et faire de notre pays un foyer de développement durable comme il le mérite.
- Un développement où la liberté, la démocratie, et la justice sociale brilleront.
« Le ciel bleu, la nuit clair,
Par la fenêtre, une lumière.
Nous inviterons la lune
à briller sur les coquelicots
et à chanter sur les plaines.
J’invite la lune à briller, briller, briller. »
Oui, nous ferons disparaître la souffrance de l’oppression
Nous bâtirons un nouvel Iran
Un pays fondé sur la liberté
Un pays fondé sur la tolérance …
Un pays fondé sur l’égalité
Alors, amis sincères de la Résistance,
Vous avez tout à votre disposition pour vaincre.
Vous qui avez battu les intégristes dans votre propre pays,
Vous qui avez rassemblé toutes les nationalités dans la république sur la base de la séparation de la religion et de l’Etat,
Vous qui bénéficiez du soutien et de l’affection d’un peuple,
Vous qui avez un idéal de droit et de légitimité devant vous,
Vous qui bénéficiez du grand capital d’un mouvement doté de quatre décennies de luttes incessantes et d’une organisation unie et puissante,
Et vous qui avez Massoud pour dirigeant,
Oui, vous avez tout pour la victoire
Oui, vous avez tout pour la victoire
Alors levez-vous !

Rallumez partout les flammes de la lutte !
Vous serez vainqueurs !
Vous serez vainqueurs !
Oui, vous serez vainqueurs !
A casa da água
www.festivaldejardins.cm-pontedelima.pt/pt/index.php?pagi...
Bem-vindos à Casa da Água.
Em qualquer jardim, a água representa um elemento muito singular, transfor-mando sobremaneira a sua envolvente e adiciona-lhe uma dimensão diferente, originando um efeito muito preponderante sobre a forma como lemos e enten-demos um jardim, uma vez que estimula os nossos sentidos e possibilita uma abertura mental para tudo que nos circunda.
A visão da água dá-nos serenidade. Quando corre, a limpidez da sua sonori-dade adiciona ao ambiente um carácter alegre e de frescura. Se nos salpica, a nossa pele estremece… Pouco a pouco, quase sem nos apercebermos, a água vai despertando os nossos sentidos e torna-nos mais receptivos ao espaço (lugar, paisagem…) em que nos encontramos.
A Casa da Água é um lugar que nos envolve suavemente, pois é a água que nos convida para o seu refúgio tranquilo de onde podemos apreender os seus efeitos de diversificadas maneiras.
Um muro de madeira cria uma espiral que isola a Casa da Água de todo o exterior e, em simultâneo, permite que seja rodeada pelo caminho que dá acesso ao interior.
Ao longo do mesmo caminho, encontramos em primeiro lugar pequenos jardins de aspecto desértico; contudo, as suas plantas suculentas estão já a anunciar a presença de água, uma vez que as mesmas guardam grandes quantidades no seu interior, tal como acontece com esta casa.
No interior, devidamente acolhidos pela Casa da Água, podemos passar um momento bem tranquilo ou tentar identificar de quantas maneiras a águas nos deleita com os seus efeitos: a calma do lago, as cores e as fragrâncias das plantas aquáticas, os brilhos do jorro que cai da cobertura, o respectivo som, as gotas frias com que somos eventualmente salpicados… e até o abrigo de uma chuva ocasional, deixando-nos envolver pela sua musicalidade ao bater na estrutura metálica e na superfície da água do lago.
Para que exista o isolamento do exterior, foi criado um muro de madeira em forma, mais ou menos, de espiral que, apreciado de fora, entende-se como um elemento fechado mas, na aproximação ao jardim, surge a visão de um caminho que convida a rodear o muro, o qual, em determinado ponto, abre a passagem para o interior.
Dentro, descobrimos um espaço coberto que rodeia um lago redondo, quase como se de um claustro se tratasse, convidando-nos a disfrutar da oportunidade e a passar um momento de lazer e serenidade.
Basta seguir o caminho de troncos que tens aos teus pés e deixar que a água te conduza à sua casa.
Oak Alley Plantation, along River Road in Louisiana. Probably one of the most famous of the southern plantations. It has been in movies www.oakalleyplantation.com/about/movies+filmed+here/
and has quite a history www.oakalleyplantation.com/about/history/
We had driven from Natchez to New Orleans and were on hour 7 of the road trip along the River Road when we came upon Oak Alley. It was raining and they wanted to charge an unreal amount of money for the tour so we skipped the tour. I told my husband to drive around the back of it along a public road, just in case there was a photo opportunity there. We hit the mother lode because this IS THE CLASSIC photo that can be seen on the Internet--and we got it for FREE! There was a little hill by the bank of the river (how convenient) and I took this shot at 55 mm end of my 55-200mm lens from there. The lighting was more conducive to B&W, thus another mono shot this week.
This is how I picture Tara or Twelve Oaks in Gone With the Wind so it's a fav of mine.
" C'est un endroit qui ressemble à la Louisiane
A l'Italie
Il y a du linge étendu sur la terrasse
Et c'est joli
On dirait le Sud
Le temps dure longtemps
Et la vie sûrement
Plus d'un million d'années
Et toujours en été.
Il y a plein d'enfants qui se roulent sur la pelouse
Il y a plein de chiens
Il y a même un chat, une tortue, des poissons rouges
Il ne manque rien
On dirait le Sud
Le temps dure longtemps
Et la vie sûrement
Plus d'un million d'années
Et toujours en été.
Un jour ou l'autre il faudra qu'il y ait la guerre
On le sait bien
On n'aime pas ça, mais on ne sait pas quoi faire
On dit c'est le destin
Tant pis pour le Sud
C'était pourtant bien
On aurait pu vivre
Plus d'un million d'années
Et toujours en été."
[Nino Ferrer - Le Sud]
