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!

ENGLISH
The Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) is a species of lizard that inhabits the islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, Gili Motang, and Gili Dasami, in central Indonesia. A member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae), it is the largest living species of lizard, growing to an average length of 2–3 meters (approximately 6.5–10 ft) and weighing around 70 kilograms (154 lb). Their unusual size is attributed to island gigantism, since there are no other carnivorous mammals to fill the niche on the islands where they live, and also to the Komodo dragon's low metabolic rate. As a result of their size, these lizards are apex predators, dominating the ecosystems in which they live. Although Komodo dragons eat mostly carrion, they will also hunt and ambush prey including invertebrates, birds, and mammals.
Komodo dragons possess virulent bacteria in their saliva, of which more than 28 Gram-negative and 29 Gram-positive strains have been isolated. These bacteria cause septicemia in their victim; if an initial bite does not kill the prey animal and it escapes, it will commonly succumb within a week to the resulting infection. The deadliest bacteria in Komodo dragon saliva appears to be a very deadly strain of Pasteurella multocida, from studies performed with lab mice. Because the Komodo dragon appears immune to its own microbes, much research has been done searching for the antibacterial molecule in the hopes of human medicinal use.

CASTELLANO
El Dragón de Komodo (Varanus komodoensis) es el saurio de mayor tamaño en el mundo, pudiendo llegar a alcanzar una longitud de tres metros y un peso entre 80 y 140 Kg. Es un miembro de la familia Varanidae que habita en diversas islas de Indonesia.
Este animal es un reptil carroñero que, para matar, no tiene que atrapar a su presa, sino que basta con que la muerda una vez. Su saliva tiene hasta 82 tipos diferentes de bacterias que provocan una septicemia en su presa, que muere a las pocas horas. La bacteria más mortífera de la saliva del dragón de Komodo parece ser una cepa de Pasteurella multocida, según estudios en ratones de laboratorio. Dado que el dragón de Komodo parece ser inmune a sus propios microbios, se han iniciado investigaciones en busca de la molécula antibacteriana para uso médico en humanos.
Este dragón es el animal más grande que habita en la isla, por lo tanto, su único enemigo es otro dragón.
Generalmente se movilizan en grupos de 2 a 10 dragones.
Está emparentado con los mosasaurios, un tipo de reptiles marinos que vivieron hace 136 millones de años y que llegaban a medir hasta 17 metros de longitud.

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.

In Ancient Greek, Medusa was the beautiful daughter of Phorcys and Ceto. Her beauty atracted the God of the Seas, Poseidon, who seduced her in goddess Athena's temple. Enraged, Athena transformed her beautiful hair to serpents and made her face so terrible to behold that the mere sight of it would turn a man to stone.
I took this as a part of my Greek myths project a while ago. This is part 2 of 3.

Na Grécia Antiga, Medusa era a linda filha de Fórcis e Ceto. Sua beleza atraiu o Deus dos Mares, Poseidon, que a seduziu no templo da deusa Atena. Enraivecida, Atena transformou seus lindos cabelos em serpentes e seu rosto em algo tão medonho que apenas um olhar teria o poder de transformar homens em pedra.
Tirei essa foto como parte do meu projeto de Mitologia Grega um tempo atrás. Essa é a foto 2 de 3.

« 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-André Godin La Richesse au service du peuple, le Familistère de Guise. 1875.
Les chiffres du Familistère : ( source Wikipédia )
10 millions de briques sont nécessaires à la construction des trois pavillons du Palais Social.
30 000 m² de surfaces sont offerts par l’ensemble des trois pavillons.
1 kilomètre de coursives parcourt les trois pavillons du Palais.
500 fenêtres percent les façades des trois unités d’habitation.
495 appartements sont aménagés dans l’ensemble des cinq pavillons du Familistère avant 1918.
1 748 personnes habitent au Familistère en 1889.
50 berceaux peuvent être installés dans la nourricerie du Familistère.
796 invités participent au banquet de la cinquième fête du Travail dans la cour du pavillon central en 1872.
1 000 spectateurs prennent place au théâtre en 1914.
1 526 employés travaillent dans les usines de la Société du Familistère en 1887.
2 500 est le nombre de record d’employés de l’Association du Familistère de Guise et à Bruxelles en 1930.
4 000 modèles d’appareils et d’accessoires sont fabriqués par la Société du Familistère en 1914.
210 000 appareils sont expédiés par les usines de Guise et Bruxelles en 1913-1914.
664, c’est le nombre de pages qui composent le livre Solutions Sociales publié par Godin en 1871.
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).

LA VALLE DELL'ORCO
ll cadavere che viene trovato impiccato a una trave è quello di Aldo Manfredini, medico in trasferta in una piccola contrada sperduta tra i monti vicentini. Carlo Zampieri, amico fraterno di Aldo e suo erede universale, raggiunge contrada Brunelli per conoscere il piccolo mondo che aveva spinto il suo amico a lasciare tutto per cominciare una nuova vita. E il mondo che scopre è fatto di paesaggi bellissimi, di pace, silenzio, bicchieri di vino e leggende raccontate attorno al fuoco. Ma anche di vecchie filastrocche cimbre sussurrate tra i boschi, di indebite appropriazioni terriere, di morti troppo strane per essere considerate accidentali. Grazie ad archivi polverosi, ad antiche mappe e all'aiuto di un vecchio parroco, il protagonista porterà alla luce una scia di sangue che si protrae da secoli e che sembra impossibile arrestare.
.........................................................................
L'ULTIMA ANGUANA
È il 22 giugno del 1968, e una lieve scossa di terremoto provoca il crollo di un antico mulino. Fra le sue macerie vengono rinvenuti casualmente tre scheletri. Dalla raccapricciante scoperta, parte l'indagine del maresciallo Baldelli, ex comandante della locale stazione dei carabinieri, che viene richiamato urgentemente dalla Calabria per investigare. Per dipanare il filo che unisce la macabra scoperta con i misteriosi avvenimenti del passato a cui sembrano connessi, Baldelli dovrà ripercorrere con la memoria l'estate del '56. Allora era un giovane brigadiere pieno di belle speranze e per far luce su una drammatica vicenda, si avvalse dell'aiuto di un estemporaneo cappellano che insegnava latino al liceo del capoluogo.
Quell'anno, tre fratellini di Vicenza, Vito, Marilù e Pino, stavano trascorrendo le loro vacanze estive lassù in montagna, ospiti di una solida e vigorosa signorina che li accudiva con un piglio da governante teutonica: d'improvviso, l'atmosfera bucolica dei loro passatempi infantili si fece cupa e minacciosa. La valle, i boschi ed i monti, che agli occhi dei bambini parevano magici e fatati, si riempirono di presenze malefiche e rivelarono tracce di esseri ostili. Erano i segni inequivocabili delle Anguàne, le mitiche ed ambigue ninfe delle fonti. In quelle avventurose vacanze i giochi infantili si fecero via via più imprudenti mettendo inconsapevolmente allo scoperto i segni di un passato inquietante… La vacanza dei bambini verrà interrotta in maniera repentina ed imprevista.Toccherà a Baldelli ricostruire le tante verità nascoste, ripercorrendo a ritroso gli aspetti più sinistri della storia della contrada e dei suoi abitanti.
De Ommetje publieksprijs.
Afgelopen zaterdag viel mij de eer te beurt om de ‘Ommetje publieksprijs’ in ontvangst te nemen.
De meeste Vlielanders en Vlielandfans zijn vermoedelijk wel bekent met de website ‘Het Ommetje’ van Folkert Janssens.
Folkert weet met ontzettend veel enthousiasme deze website te vullen met allerlei wetenswaardigheden, nieuwsfeiten en verslagen over Vlieland en haar bewoners.
Vorig jaar heeft Folkert de Ommetje publieksprijs ingesteld, op Het Ommetje wordt daar het volgende over gemeld;
Website www.hetommetje.nl kent jaarlijks een publieksprijs toe aan iemand die zich heeft ingezet voor de beeldvorming van het eiland Vlieland of die Vlieland op de één of andere wijze belangeloos heeft gepromoot.
In 2011 resulteerde dit bijvoorbeeld in een optreden van de Vlielander zanger Sjoerd op het festival Into the Great Wide Open alwaar hij zijn onderscheiding in ontvangst mocht nemen.
U als lezer van deze website mag meebeslissen over wie om welke reden in aanmerking moet komen voor deze prijs die bestaat uit een onderscheiding in de vorm van een door Peter Petersen vervaardigde bronzen penning en er wordt altijd gepoogd om de uitreiking passend naar de verdienste(n) van de betreffende persoon of organisatie aan te kleden.
Kent u iemand die in aanmerking komt voor deze onderscheiding, neem dan even contact met ons op.
Enige weken terug zocht Folkert mij op in De Noordwester en liet mij weten dat Het Ommetje voornemens was mij de Ommetje publieksprijs uit te reiken.
Folkert en de lezers van het Ommetje waren tot de voordracht gekomen vanwege mijn inzet voor de beschrijving van Vlieland tijdens de oorlogsjaren in het algemeen, en de inspanningen voor het voor het publiek open stellen van het Stützpunkt 12H in het bijzonder.
Ik ging schoorvoetend akkoord met het in ontvangst nemen van de prijs, ik houdt er niet zo van om het middelpunt van de belangstelling te staan.
Ik ging er daarna van uit dat Folkert voor de uitreiking op zijn fiets naar de Lange-Paal zou komen, om mij daar aan de deur een attentie te overhandigen, een fotootje te maken voor de website Het Ommetje, en dat het daarmee gedaan zou zijn.
Daarbij had ik even buiten Folkert gerekend; een maandje later viel bij mij de uitnodiging in de bus, met daarbij het programma van de uitreiking.
Dit luidde als volgt;
Het programma:
Vrijdag 12 oktober 2012, omstreeks 15.30 uur
Aankomst op Vlieland van Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt (Militaire attaché van de Duitse ambassade in Nederland), officiële ontvangst door commandant Klu-detachement Vlieland, Jan Houter, Folkert Janssens en eventueel Burgemeester Haan.
Aankomst militair materieel (2 st. Amerikaans tbv Veldkeuken en 1 stuks Duitse Kubelwagen met bemanning in historische uniformen).
17.00 – 18.30 Speciale editie “Vlieland toen” door Jan Houter in Podium Vlieland (vertelling over Vlieland ten tijde van WOII met beeldmateriaal)
Zaterdag 13 oktober 11.30
Vertrek bus vanaf terminal Rederij Doeksen naar locatie CSK. Tevens vertrek militaire colonne naar CSK (met mogelijkheid mee te rijden voor gasten)
12.00 Start militaire lunch
12.30 Militair verzamelsignaal geblazen door Niek Strous
12.31 Toespraak Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt en aansluitend uitreiking Ommetje Publieksprijs
13.00 Rondleiding en uitleg bij statische tentoonstelling legervoertuigen
14.00 Einde programma CSK, vertrek bus en colonne (colonne maakt rondrit over het eiland met gasten, bus rijdt rechtstreeks terug naar terminal)
14.30 Optioneel in verband met weersomstandigheden: Bezoek aan stelling 12H.
16.30 De Noordwester: Voor genodigden en pers presentatie plannen renovatie en openstelling stelling 12H.
Daar werd ik toch enigszins beduusd van.
Folkert had alle registers open getrokken om van de uitreiking een ware happening te maken.
Omdat ik meteen inzag dat er nu geen weg terug meer was, nam ik mij voor mij er aan over te geven en de hele gebeurtenis te ondergaan.
Afgelopen vrijdag maakte ik bij Podium Vlieland kennis met Luitenant-kolonel i.G. Joachim Schmidt, de militaire attaché van de Duitse ambassade en hoorden we met een select gezelschap een enthousiaste lezing van Jan Houter aan.
De zaterdag was het zover; verzamelen van de militaire voertuigen bij de Veerdam en daarna met het hele gezelschap naar het Cavalerie Schiet Kamp.
Ik mocht voor gaan op mijn Harley-Davidson 1943, en verzorgde het escorte samen met Erik de Boer en Rein Schokker beiden op hun Moto Guzzi V50 in Koninklijke Landmacht uitvoering.
Rein had zijn Go Pro op zijn helm, en maakte deze reportage van de rit naar het CSK.
Op het CSK troffen we Jorrit Volkers uit Leeuwarden, die speciaal voor deze gelegenheid met zijn GMC CCKW- 352, met in de laadbak een originele Amerikaanse veldkeuken, naar Vlieland was gekomen. Jorrit en zijn keukenteam hadden op deze veldkeuken een heerlijk geurende nasi bereidt.
De aanwezigheid van deze en de overige legervoertuigen was tot stand gekomen door vooral de bemiddelingen van Wietze Kikstra en Klaas Houter.
Het gezelschap verzamelde zich in de kantine van het Klu-detachement op Vlieland en werd welkom geheten door de commandant van het Detachement, de majoor Pieter Bruinink.
Na de voortreffelijke nasi-maaltijd begon het officiële gedeelte, en nam de Luitenant-kolonel i.G. Joachim Schmidt het woord om mij en het gezelschap toe te spreken.
De Oberstleutnant Schmidt hield een mooie toespraak, de tekst daarvan vindt u hier onder.
Ik werd wel enigszins ongemakkelijk van de lofuitingen die ik mocht aanhoren, maar ontving deze dankbaar.
Na de toespraak van Oberstleutnant Schmidt kreeg ik de fraai legpenning gemaakt door Peter Petersen behorende bij de Ommetje publieksprijs overhandigd en, ook erg aardig, een dinerbon voor Anke en mij bij restaurant Zuiver.
Na de overhandiging van de publieksprijs van het Ommetje nam ik zelf nog even het woord om een korte schets te geven van het ontstaan van mijn interesse voor de geschiedenis van de oorlogsjaren op Vlieland en sprak ik mijn dank uit naar met name Folkert, aan alle anderen die op enige wijze hun bijdrage hadden geleverd aan deze dag.
Na dit officiële gedeelte kon men weer instijgen in de voertuigen en werd via het Kantonnierspad onder langs de zeeduinen koers gezet naar de Stelling 12H.
Bij 12H mocht ik nog een rondleiding geven langs de diverse verscholen bunkers, kon ik uitleg geven over de functie en uitrusting van de stelling en een toelichting op de plannen voor de openstelling van het geheel voor het publiek.
Altijd leuk om voor een oprecht geïnteresseerd publiek een inleiding te geven over een onderwerp waar ik goed van op de hoogte ben.
Ook aardig om mensen die al heel lang op Vlieland wonen dingen te laten zien waar men geen notie van had dat die nog in het terrein zijn terug te vinden.
Bij het vertrek richting dorp vielen de eerste spatjes van de verwachtte regen, gelukkig arriveerden de verwachtte buien pas op het einde van het ‘buiten programma’.
Ter afsluiting was er nog de mogelijkheid voor de geïnteresseerden om de tentoonstelling ‘Vlieland tijdens de Oorlogsjaren’ waarbij ik voor de aanwezigen nog een toelichting gaf op hetgeen daar allemaal te zien valt.
Na nog een kop koffie kwam deze gebeurtenis tot een eind, en na afscheid van de Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt en zijn vrouw en nog een hand en een Hartelijke Dank aan Folkert en Nancy reed ik met een tevreden en voldaan gevoel door de regen op mijn Harley-Davidson naar de Lange-Paal.
Dirk Bruin – oktober 2012
Nawoord;
Folkert moet ontzettend veel werk gehad hebben met de organisatie van de uitreiking van de Ommetje Publieksprijs, en ik wil hem vanaf deze plaats nogmaals heel hartelijk danken.
Ik besef ook dat Folkert van veel mensen en bedrijven hulp heeft gehad, en dat het zonder deze belangeloze medewerking nooit zo’n geslaagde gebeurtenis had kunnen realiseren.
Zonder tot in detail te weten wie hier allemaal bij betrokken waren, wil ik ook dezen zeer hartelijk danken!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Toespraak ter gelegenheid van de ‘Ommetje Publieksprijs’ aan de heer Dirk Bruin op 13 oktober 2012.
Geachte meneer Janssens, meneer de burgemeester, geachte meneer Bruin, geachte dames en
heren,
Het is voor alle aanwezigen vast een beetje ongewoon dat de defensie-attaché van de Duitse
ambassade in Nederland vandaag tot u spreekt. Ik wil u, geachte meneer Janssens, ook namens
mijn vrouw, allereerst danken voor uw uitnodiging voor deze prijsuitreiking. Ik wil u allen de
hartelijke groeten overbrengen van de Duitse ambassadeur in Nederland, dr. Heinz-Peter Behr. Hij
was graag zelf gekomen, maar was verhinderd en heeft mij verzocht naar Vlieland te gaan om
deze prijs uit te reiken.
Dat doe ik natuurlijk graag. Want het is ook voor mijn vrouwen mij om diverse redenen een
bijzondere manifestatie. Zo zijn wij voor het eerst op Vlieland. Over Vlieland hoorde ik voor het
eerst in 1988. Ik was compagniecommandant van een verkenningseenheid in Lüneburg in
Nedersaksen. Wij hadden een mooie en levendige peetschap met het B-Eskadron van het
verkennings bataljon 103 in Seedorf. De officieren van dit bataljon hadden voorgesteld dat wij een
van onze toentertijd regelmatige ontmoetingen met onze gezinnen eens op Vlieland konden
houden. Mijn Nederlandse kameraden hadden hoog opgegeven van dit eiland, dat zij kenden van
hun oefeningen. Mijn vrouwen ik weten sinds gisteravond waarom.
Helaas is het toen niet meer van een trip naar Vlieland gekomen. Enerzijds was dit jammer, maar
anderzijds kwam er een gebeurtenis in de wereldpolitiek tussen, die men toen en zeker ook nu
nog als een wonder kan zien: de val van de Berlijnse muur.
Het ijzeren gordijn was weg, de koude oorlog ras zonder bloedvergieten geëindigd. De Bondsrepubliek Duitsland had dankzij haar betrokkenheid bij het westen en dankzij de steun van haar vrienden, waartoe ook toen al Nederland hoorde, niet alleen de koude oorlog overwonnen, maar ook haar eenheid
teruggekregen. Wij Duitsers zijn hierover zeer verheugd en het is zeker ook nu - na meer dan 22
Jaar - nog steeds gepast deze vrienden en daarmee u allen ervoor te bedanken dat u tijdens de
koude oorlog en de tijd na de ommekeer standvastig aan onze kant stond.
Zoals bekend was de koude oorlog een nasleep van de Tweede Wereldoorlog die Duitsland had
veroorzaakt en die zoveel onheil met zich mee heeft gebracht. Ook Vlieland bleef niet gespaard.
De Duitse Wehrmacht hield het eiland langer bezet dan de rest van Nederland. Dit eiland hoorde -
zoals de gehele Noordzeekust van Skagerrak tot aan Frankrijk - tot de zogenoemde Atlantikwall.
Met stellingen over een lengte van meer dan 2685 km geloofde men aan Duitse kant effectief het
hoofd te kunnen bieden aan een dreigende invasie vanaf de Atlantische Oceaan, het Kanaal en de
Noordzee en hier aan de Nederlandse Noordzeekust de heerschappij van het naziregime over uw
vaderland te verlengen.
Dames en heren, de sporen van deze Atlantikwall zijn ook nu nog aan te treffen. Sporen van beton
en steen, die getuigen van een tijd, die goddank allang achter ons ligt. Maar het zijn sporen die
voor het nageslacht moeten worden behouden, omdat zij deel uitmaken van onze gezamenlijke
geschiedenis. Zij herinneren Vlieland en al zijn bezoekers aan een donkere tijd vol ontberingen en
het verlies van vrijheid. Het zijn sporen die ons Duitsers altijd weer onder ogen brengen hoever
grootheidswaan en verblinding kunnen gaan. Alleen al de blik op zulke bunkers middenin een
natuurparadijs als Vlieland sterkt mij als Duits soldaat in de mening dat wij er alles voor moeten
doen om niet alleen lering te trekken Uit deze ontzettende geschiedenis, maar dit ook aan onze
kinderen en volgende generaties moeten doorgeven.
U, meneer Bruin, doet dit al vele jaren. Het is uw verdienste dat de herinnering aan de Tweede
Wereldoorlog op Vlieland levend gehouden blijft. Met zeer grote persoonlijke inzet draagt u al heel
lang toe bij dat de geschiedenis hier op Vlieland tastbaar blijft. Wat is er zinvoller dan een
geschiedenisles juist daar aan te bieden, waar de geschiedenis zich daadwerkelijk heeft
afgespeeld? Men mag de beschouwers van deze geschiedenis niet aan zich zelf overlaten: de
geschiedenis moet worden verklaard. U, meneer Bruin, maakt ons en alle bezoekers daar in de
duinen deze geschiedenis duidelijk. Dat is uw verdienste en dat waarderen wij vandaag.
De organisatoren van de huidige manifestatie rond Folkert Janssens hebben besloten u de
Ommetje publieksprijs 2012 toe te kennen.
Ik vind dit een heel goede beslissing• en feliciteer de verantwoordelijken met hun keuze.
U, geachte meneer Bruin, feliciteer ik van harte, ook namens de Duitse ambassadeur in
Nederland, met deze mooie onderscheiding. Ik wens u ook verder de grote motivatie toe om uw
werk met hetzelfde enthousiasme voort te zetten. En natuurlijk wens ik u ook dat u met uw
verdienstelijke werk het interesse en de erkenning krijgt van diegenen die ten slotte dit
geschiedenis project nog financieel moeten ondersteunen. Hier moet zeker ook dank uitgaan aan
de ondernemer en sponsoren van Vlieland die zich in het verleden ook al geëngageerd hebben.
Wij moeten de herinnering aan de oorlog voor onze huisdeur levend houden. Alleen zo kunnen de
verschrikkingen van die tijd geloofwaardig aan de jongere generatie worden doorgegeven en als
afschrikking dienen. U, meneer Bruin, heeft zich hiervoor in bijzondere mate verdienstelijk
gemaakt,.

Biography
Born in 1947 as Wayne Rogers, County left her hometown of Dallas, Georgia in 1968 to move to New York City, where she became a regular at the Stonewall Inn and took part in the historic riots. In 1969, County was asked by Warhol superstar and playwright Jackie Curtis to appear in her play Femme Fatale at the La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club, which also starred Patti Smith. In her autobiography, County says of Curtis, "She was my biggest influence, the person who really got me started." After a successful run of Femme Fatale, County wrote her own play World - Birth Of A Nation which she also appeared in, bringing her to the attention of Andy Warhol, who cast her in his own theatrical production Pork. After a run in New York, the play, with the New York cast, was performed in London for a few months. Upon returning to New York, County appeared in another play, Island, by Tony Ingrassia, again with Patti Smith.
Then, in 1972 County got her first band, Queen Elizabeth together, one of the pioneering glam rock bands. Despite being signed to MainMan Management, David Bowie's management firm, no records were ever produced, although the company did spend over $200,000 to film the 1974 stage show "Wayne at the Trucks", no footage of which has ever been released (even in bootleg form). The show featured numerous costume changes and some of County's raunchiest material. The film remains (presumably) in Bowie's vaults, though eight live recordings from this show were released in audio form on the 2006 CD Wayne County At The Trucks on Munster Records. The show is claimed by County to be the major inspiration for Bowie's stage show for the tour supporting his Diamond Dogs album.[1] In particular, County maintains that the song "Queenage Baby" was a prototype for Bowie's song "Rebel Rebel", a claim which is supported by some rock critics.[2][3]
In 1975, with her new band "The Backstreet Boys," Wayne County recorded three tracks for the compilation Max's Kansas City: New York New Wave, which also featured Suicide, Pere Ubu and The Fast. Wayne County and The Backstreet Boys played regularly at CBGBs and at Max's Kansas City, where County was also a DJ. In 1976, she appeared in the film The Blank Generation, directed by Amos Poe and Ivan Kral. The film, the recording and the shows were the beginnings of what came to be known as punk rock, and helped define this movement for a generation of youth.
In 1977, County left New York to return to London, where the English punk scene was just emerging. Here, she formed a new band called Wayne County & the Electric Chairs. County released the EP Electric Chairs 1977, plus a single on Illegal Records. This was followed by her most famous song, "Fuck Off" recorded as a single for Safari Records, with a European tour in support of the records. While in London, County met Derek Jarman who cast her as the character "Lounge Lizard" in the seminal punk film Jubilee, which also starred Adam Ant, Toyah Willcox, Ian Charleson and Jordan. After this The Electric Chairs recorded their first self-titled album, which featured "Eddie and Sheena", and an EP named Blatantly Offensive, which contained "Fuck Off" and "Toilet Love." After touring, they followed this up with another album Storm The Gates Of Heaven. The next album, released in 1979, was Things Your Mother Never Told You which featured several songs based on County's recent experiences in Germany. After it was released, the band broke up and County (along with guitarist Eliot Michaels) returned to the U.S. in 1979. It was at this time that she officially changed her stage name to "Jayne County" and began self-identifying as a woman. The final release by County on Safari Records, Rock and Roll Resurrection (In Concert), a live album recorded in Toronto on New Year's Eve of 1979, was under this new name.
In 1983, County returned to New York where she appeared in the theatrical production Les Girls with Holly Woodlawn and other performers. After this she returned to London for the premiere of City Of Lost Souls and stayed long enough to tour and record another album Private Oyster with Warren Heighway as manager. Her band included members of various UK based rock bands, including Manchester-based guitarists Stuart Clarke, Chris Lynch and Baz Creece on drums. Following widespread media attention she then returned again to the U.S.
In the 1990s many of the earlier recordings were released, such as the early Safari tracks on a CD called Rock & Roll Cleopatra. She recorded the album Goddess Of Wet Dreams in 1993, followed by Deviation in 1995. That same year she appeared in Wigstock: The Movie and released her autobiography Man Enough To Be A Woman.
Since Deviation, several new tracks have surfaced on various compilations and through Jayne's official website. Many of these tracks, both live and studio recordings, were collected on the Ratcage Records release So New York, including collaborations with Lisa Jackson and former Electric Chairs guitarist Eliot Michaels. A thunderous live show (recorded on Jayne's birthday) was released on the 2002 CD Wash Me In The Blood (Of Rock & Roll)- Live at Squeeze Box by Fang Records, and features a duet on "California Sun" by County and former nemesis "Handsome" Dick Manitoba of The Dictators.
Thank you, Jason, for sending me this song. :D
Obviously this was taken on the same day as the previous picture.
I'm not quite sure what I think about this but I like it for its strangeness.
Opened up, proudly on display
What we tried so hard to hide away
Blinding light illuminates the scene
Try to fill the spaces in between
Arms entwined in a final pose
Narrative drawing to a close
Still remain the things we couldn't kill
In your eyes I can see it still
How we choose the framing of the scene
Hate begins to spill across the screen
Blinding light illuminates the scene
Try to fill the spaces in between.
18/30:
I'm thinking about writing a sort of hectic autobiography. Maybe just throwing together a whole bunch of events into a general framework and going with it. I can't seem to keep my stories and writings consistent and together, and often end up losing my thought for the next section of the piece or I just lose all creativity and motivation for writing said piece. Maybe this will keep me on track. It does interest me, I must admit. Though I'm only sixteen, I believe I would have quite a bit of events to list. A friend told me that my life is like opening a large book, and she feels like she is only an extra. Like one of those characters that "don't particularly matter." I told her that every character within my story that chooses to matter will matter to me dearly. They will do so long after they no longer want to be a part of my story as well. I do mean that. And love, you do matter.

Gieysztoria es un poco más grande que muchos protozoos y algo más pequeña que algunos de ellos, sus movimientos, sus contorsiones, sus continuos cambios de forma y su cuerpo aplastado podrían hacernos confundirla, a veces, con cualquier ciliado plano, por ejemplo, con Frontonia, pero si miramos fijamante a Dalyellia ella devolverá la mirada: dos puntitos arriñonados y oscuros son sus ojos y detrás de ellos una potente y gruesa faringe da paso a un intestino en forma de saco sin salida, en cuyo interior se maceran y digieren restos vegetales y otros desechos que este organismo consume…pero ¿Quién es?
Aunque rodeado de cilios y en movimiento gracias a ellos, Gieysztoria no es un ciliado, es un organismo pluricelular, un gusano plano turbelario, emparentado con las prodigiosas planarias inmortales que se multiplican cada vez que se rompen en mil fragmentos. Muchos turbelarios se caracterizan por tener sobre la piel unos cuerpos alargados, los rabdites, de función defensiva, que expulsan hacia el exterior agua y mucus formando una maraña protectora alrededor de estos animales. En ocasiones esa secreción mucosa es tóxica y puede tener función paralizante y aunque, Gieysztoria no es depredadora, sí lo son otros géneros hermanos que se alimentan con gran voracidad de pequeños crustáceos, otros gusanos y larvas de insectos.
Llama la atención en nuestro protagonista de hoy el remate de su cola, como una mano con dedos cortos con la que se sujeta al fondo y se impulsa para rebuscar entre los sedimentos algo que llevarse a la boca.
Los turbelarios son organismos cosmopolitas pero muchos de ellos habitan específicamente en lugares en los que las condiciones del agua son muy concretas, a Gieysztoria le gustan las aguas ácidas y limpias procedentes de la fusión de las nieves.
Gieysztoria también ha venido con las muestras recogidas en unas praderas inundadas de las inmediaciones de la Laguna de Peñalara y como todos los seres encontrados en ellas va dedicada a todos estos amigos con quienes tuve la suerte de compartir este maravilloso proyecto de Biodiversidad virtual. La fotografía se ha tomado a 200 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

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).
The concept- A girl who's been turned into a human, after being a flower for years. This is supposed to capture the vulnerability of a flower.

M'kay, hii guys. First of all- Merry Christmas if you celebrate it! <3 Second of all- I'm starting a new series! "Life on Earth." It's going to be conceptual shots with interpreting something of the earth into it. ( 'Be the beauty you see' Would be a good example of what it will be, too.) I'm really excited to do things like this more. Third of all- This was inspired by a painting I did earlier today, then realized it'd be a good picture! Fourth of all- Next month, I am officially taking Photography classes once a week at Gainesville Uni! Thank you so much to my parents for finding it, and paying for it, so I can do what I love. I love you guys! <3
Hope you all have a great holiday, closeup in comments!

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).

The Captives surrounded the pedestal of the statue of Louis XIV on foot in the Place des Victoires. They are by Martin Desjardins, the gallicized name of an eminent Dutch sculptor active during the reign of Louis XIV, who had already made his name with the decoration of the Hôtel Salé (now the Musée Picasso). The monument was commissioned in 1679 by François d'Aubusson, duke of La Feuillade and marshal of France, who had distinguished himself in the campaigns in Franche-Comté and Sicily. He was an astute courtier, and thought it opportune to raise a grandiose monument to the glory of his king. As a setting for the statue, he persuaded the city to open up an immense square and he had the architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart design it. The square was named Place des Victoires in homage to France's victories in the Dutch War, which ended in 1679 with the Treaty of Nijmegen. The monument was inaugurated in 1686.
The captives, four larger-than-life bronze figures, symbolize the four nations defeated at the time of the Treaty of Nijmegen. Each represents one of the ages of man and a different attitude to captivity. Spain is a smooth-faced young man with streaming hair. His naked, upright body and heavenward gaze all indicate hope. The Holy Roman Empire is a bearded old man dressed in an ancient tunic. His head is bowed and his body sags in dejected resignation. Holland is young man with virile features and a short beard. His naked body poised to leap, his shoulder thrust forward in a defiant gesture and his wild expression speak of rebellion. Brandenburg is a mature man dressed like an ancient barbarian (like the Farnese Prisoners, classical marbles highly appreciated by many artists). The hand clutching his cloak, the drooping right shoulder and contorted face express grief. The Captives are all turned to the right, which encourages viewers to walk around the monument in a clockwise direction. Desjardins brilliantly varied his figures, alternating old and young, nude and clothed, upright and stooping figures, and arranging their arms and legs in different positions.

L'antic municipi de Vulpellac tenia, abans de l'annexió de Fonteta i Peratallada, 4,29 quilòmetres quadrats d'extensió. El terme comprèn una zona aturonada, a ponent i al NW amb el punt més elevat al puig Negre (109 m. d'alt), que forma part de la serra de Sant Ramon, límit amb el terme veí de La Bisbal d'Empordà. La part restant del terme és plana i drenada per la riera de Fonteta, de la conca del Daró, que devalla de les Gavarres. La carretera de Palamós a Girona, per la Bisbal, travessa el territori municipal d'est a oest. En aquest lloc s'inicia la carretera local de Vulpellac a Pals. El lloc de Volpeyliacho, del comtat d'Empúries, s'esmenta l'any 894 i, en documents dels anys 904 i 911, és anomenat Vulpiliaco. Hom ha suposat que el topònim pot derivar del gentilici llatí Vulpi8lius, però Joan Coromines el creu d'origen cèltic.
El poble de Vulpellac (51 m d'alt), a l'esquerra de la riera de Fonteta, té un nucli antic de notable interès arquitectònic, centrat pel conjunt que formen el castell-palau i l'església parroquial. Com en tants pobles de l'Empordà, en els darrers anys un bon nombres de cases han estat convertides en segona residència. Fora d'aquest nucli són força nombroses les masies disseminades pel veïnat del pla i una mica per tot el terme, que té altres dos nuclis importants de població: el veïnat de la Bordeta, sorgit el segle XIX al llarg de la carretera de Girona, i la urbanització del Puig de Sant Ramon.
L'església parroquial de Sant Julià i Santa Basilissa és l'antiga capella del castell. L'edifici actual és del segle XVI, d'estil gòtic tardà, amb detalls renaixentistes i fortificada. A migdia de l'església s'ha excavat part d'una necròpolis alt-medieval amb tombes antropomorfes i de lloses que també s'estenien per sota del temple i pel subsòl del castell, on es troba un fragment de sarcòfag decorat. S'han trobat vestigis de l'església anterior, que podrien ésser romànics.
El castell-palau, per la seva banda, manté en una bona part l'estructura essencial del segle XIV, amb nombroses reformes de la primera meitat del XVI, efectuades per ordre de Miquel Sarriera, que afectaren la disposició interior i la decoració, Pels volts de 1725 s'hi van fer altres reformes i més endavant, l'edifici va ser convertit en casa de pagès. És un immoble de dues plantes format per tres crugies, que junt amb l'església, emmarquen un petit pati interior de planta trapezial. El 1931 va ser declarat monument nacional.
A l'entorn de l'església i del palau hi ha restes disperses de la muralla, alguns vestigis de la qual es troben entremig de les cases del poble. L'element més ben conservat és la torre-portal del nord-est, de planta quadrada i amb la porta adovellada. Es conserva una altra torrre, cilíndrica, al sudo-est del poble, encaixada entre les cases. Malgrat l'alteració recent d'algunes cases del nucli urbà, estructurat a l'entorn del castell i de l'església, hi ha alguns edificis dels segles XVII i XVIII que tenen un interès notable com a arquitectura popular als carrerons del nord a la plaça Major, situada extramurs, i al carrer Major, on hi ha cases amb portals adovellats, escuts i alguns finestrals decorats.
A la part muntanyosa del terme hi ha petites zones de pins i alzines, i espais de vinya i oliveres. A la resta dels conreus, principalment de secà, es planten cereals, farratges i llegums. Hi ha un reduït sector de regadiu, que aprofita les aigües subterrànies, dedicat a hortalises, blat de moro i farratges. Les granges avícoles i la cria de bestiar boví i porcí, amb algunes activitats industrials derivades, completen l'economia. Degut a la seva situació —al costat de la carretera C-255 de Girona a Palamós i de la Bisbal—, al seu terme s'hi han anat instal·lant un bon nombre d'indústires, principalment relacionades amb el sector de la ceràmica o la pedra artificial. Per concolidar i ordenar aquest potencial industrial, l'any 1999 es va començar a urbanitzar un polígon que permetrà donar sortida a la gran demanda de sòl industrial que existeix en aquesta zona.

El antiguo municipio de Vulpellac tenía, antes de la anexión de Fonteta i Peratallada, 4,29 kilómetros cuadrados de extensión. El término comprende una zona aturonada, a ponente|poniente y al NW con el punto más elevado en el monte Negre (109 m. de alto), que forma parte de la sierra de Sant Ramon, límite con el término vecino de La Bisbal d'Empordà. La parte restante del término está plana y drenada por la rambla de Fonteta, de la cuenca del Daró, que devalla de las Gabarras. La carretera de Palamós a Gerona, por|para la Episcopal, atraviesa el territorio municipal de este en oeste. En este lugar|sitio se inicia la carretera local de Vulpellac a Pals. El lugar|sitio de Volpeyliacho, del condado de Empúries, se menciona el año 894 y, en documentos de los años 904 y 911, es nombrado Vulpiliaco. Se ha supuesto que el topónimo puede derivar del gentilicio latín Vulpi8lius, pero Joan Coromines lo cree de origen céltico.
El pueblo de Vulpellac (51 m de 'alto), a la izquierda de la rambla de Fonteta, tiene un núcleo antiguo de notable interés arquitectónico, centrado por el conjunto que forman el castillo-palacio y la iglesia parroquial. Como en tantos pueblos del Empordà, en los últimos años uno bueno números de casas han sido convertidas en segunda residencia. Fuera de este núcleo son bastante numerosas las masías diseminadas por el vecindario del plan|llano y un poco por|para todo el término, que tiene otros dos núcleos importantes de población: el vecindario de la Bordeta, surgido el siglo XIX a lo largo de la carretera de Gerona, y la urbanización del Puig de Sant Ramon.
La iglesia parroquial de Sant Julià i Santa Basilissa es la antigua capilla del castillo. El edificio actual es del siglo XVI, de estilo gótico tardó, con detalles renacentistas y fortificada. A mediodía de la iglesia se ha excavado parte de una necrópolis alto-medieval con tumbas antropomorfas y de losas que también se extendían por debajo del templo y por|para el subsuelo del castillo, donde se encuentra un fragmento de sarcófago decorado. Se han encontrado vestigios de la iglesia anterior, que podrían ser románicos.
El castillo-palacio, por su parte, mantiene en una buena parte la estructura esencial del siglo XIV, con numerosas reformas de la primera mitad del XVI, efectuadas por orden de Miquel Sarriera, que afectaron a la disposición interior y la decoración, Alrededor de 1725 se hicieron otras reformas y más adelante, el edificio fue convertido en casa de campo. Es un inmueble de dos plantas formado por tres crujías, que junto con la iglesia, enmarcan un pequeño patio interior de planta trapecial. En 1931 fue declarado monumento nacional.
En Torno a la iglesia y del palacio hay restos dispersos de la muralla, algunos vestigios de la cual se encuentran en medio de las casas del pueblo. El elemento mejor conservado es la torre-portal del nordeste, de planta cuadrada y con la puerta adintelada. Se conserva otra torrre, cilíndrica, en el sudo-est del pueblo, apretón entre las casas. A pesar de la alteración reciente de algunas casas del núcleo urbano, estructurado en torno al castillo y de la iglesia, hay algunos edificios de los siglos XVII y XVIII que tienen un interés notable como arquitectura popular a las callejuelas|callejones del norte en la plaza Major, situada extramurs, y a la calle Major, donde|dónde hay casas con portales adintelados, escudos y algunos ventanales decorados.
En la parte montañosa del término hay pequeñas zonas de pins y encinas, y espacios de viña y olivos. En el resto de los cultivos, principalmente de secano, se plantan cereales, forrajes y legumbres. Hay un reducido sector de regadío, que aprovecha las aguas subterráneas, dedicado a hortalises, maíz y forrajes. Las granjas avícolas y la cría de ganado bovino y porcino, con algunas actividades industriales derivadas, completan la economía. Debido a su situación -al lado de la carretera C-255 de Gerona a Palamós y de la Episcopal-, a su término se han ido instalando un buen número de indústires, principalmente relacionadas con el sector de la cerámica o la piedra artificial. Por concolidar y ordenar este potencial industrial, el año 1999 se empezó a urbanizar un polígono que permitirá dar salida a la gran demanda de suelo industrial que existe en esta zona.

One of the wanderflechten, or vagrant lichens, which curls when dry and may blow around like tumbleweed. Moisture causes it to uncurl to facilitate photosynthesis . The upper surface of the branches is dark, while the lower surface features "whitish pruinose patches without a cortex, and functionally equivalent to pseudochyphellae" as described by Brodo.

www.cpbr.gov.au/lichen/ecology-vagrants.html - "The great majority of lichens grow attached to substrates of some sort but many are able to continue growing if they become unattached. There is also a small number of species which never grow attached to any substrate. These are often referred to as vagrant lichens and I will use the word in that sense on this website. Species that normally grow attached but that are able to survive unattached are often referred to as erratic lichens, but be aware that some authors use the word erratic to include the vagrant species as well and then describe those species as obligatorily erratic. English words such as vagrant and vague are derived from Latin words built on the root VAG, conveying the sense of 'wandering'. In several other languages these lichens are known by names that are easy for an English speaker to understand. Thus they may be lichens vagabondes (French), licheni vaganti (Italian), líquenes migratorios, líquenes vagantes (both Spanish) or Wanderflechten (German). The last is easy to comprehend once you know that Flechten is the German word for lichens."

KOKOMO, Ind. – Years from now, when followers of Indiana University Kokomo athletics look back on the 2011 volleyball season, the October 6 win over Trine University will be more than just another game. More than just a footnote in the initial season for women’s volleyball, it will be part of history.

Limapontia capitata (O. F. Müller, 1774)
Revised July 2021.
Current taxonomy; World Register of Marine Species www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=140229
Synonyms: Fasciola capitata O. F. Müller, 1774; Pontolimax capitatus (O. F. Müller, 1774); Limapontia nigra G. Johnston, 1835.
GLOSSARY below.
Description
Usually up to 4 mm long, rarely 8 mm (Thompson, 1976). The smooth body has no tubercles, gills or appendages. It is dark brown (fig. 1 flic.kr/p/2m1yssd ) or black (fig. 2 flic.kr/p/2m1C9ti ) except for the dorsal rim of the foot, metapodium, eye areas and head crests which are all translucent whitish, flecked with opaque white. There are often random light spots on the dark areas and, sometimes, small greenish patches and flecks. Usually, there is a large pale patch, often approximating to a heart shape, (fig. 3 flic.kr/p/2m1DbBw ) on the dorsum. Part of the patch is often translucent allowing sight of the heart beating within the translucent pericardium (Jensen, 1977).
The anus is a short distance behind and to the right of the midpoint of the body, but it is often difficult to see when it is not defecating.
The head has a truncated anterior edge and usually extends beyond the foot (fig. 4 flic.kr/p/2m1G6Nd ). There are no digitiform rhinophores but, above and in front of each eye, adults have a strong (fig. 5 flic.kr/p/2m1C9sG ) or weak (fig. 3 flic.kr/p/2m1DbBw ) head crest which is absent from some juveniles.
The foot has a translucent whitish sole spotted with white pigment. The yellow ovotestes of adults and/or green contents of the digestive gland may be visible through the sole (fig. 4 flic.kr/p/2m1G6Nd ). The anterior of the foot is often slightly expanded but there are no propodial tentacles.
The substantial pale metapodium is c. 19-25% of the body length.
Key identification features
Limapontia capitata
1) Curved head crest above and in front of each eye (figs. 3 flic.kr/p/2m1DbBw & 5 flic.kr/p/2m1C9sG ), no ridge below eye. At some angles of view, crests can be mistaken for digitiform rhinophores (fig. 6 flic.kr/p/2m1C9s1 ).
2) Substantial pale metapodium is c. 19-25% of body length.
3) Usually a large pale mark on the dorsum (fig. 3 flic.kr/p/2m1DbBw ).
4) Eye areas and head-crests whitish (fig. 2 flic.kr/p/2m1C9ti )
5) Anus a short distance behind midpoint of body.
6) Sublittoral and all levels of the shore in pools and moist positions. Usually on Cladophora attached to hard substrate. Optimum salinity 30‰, can survive 5‰ to over 40‰, but sustainable population improbable below 10‰, the lower limit for spawning.
Similar species
Limapontia depressa Alder & Hancock, 1862 (fig. 7 flic.kr/p/2m1HAoU )
1) No digitiform rhinophores but most have a raised rim around the pale eye patches which Alder & Hancock (1862) in their original species description refer to as ‘lateral crests’, and which Hancock clearly illustrated (item 4 on fig. 7). Most subsequent authors omit or deny the existence of the rim/crests on L. depressa (Barrett & Yonge, 1958; Gascoigne, 1975; Thompson, 1976; Hayward & Ryland, 1998; Kluijver et al.). Consequently, the rim is often mistaken for head crests of L. capitata. The rim varies in how much it is erected, being low when a specimen is not in good condition, and it may be difficult to discern in dorsal view of very dark specimens.
2) Pale metapodium (‘tail’) absent or negligible when viewed dorsally.
3) No large, pale, pigment mark on dorsum (occasionally a faded area).
4) Pale eye patches.
5) Dorsal anus close to posterior.
6) On tidal saltings in Britain in brackish or full marine salinity. Individuals adapt slowly and with difficulty to salinity change, but local populations are found adjusted to a wide range of salinities, to below 3‰ on the tidal River Dee, Wales. It lives sublittorally in the inner Baltic Sea, where the mean sea surface salinity is below 7‰ (Bendtsen et al.); a specimen near Helsinki, misidentified (when accessed in June 2021) as L. capitata, is at www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TBqOdGHmmI .
Limapontia senestra (Quatrefages, 1844) (fig. 8 flic.kr/p/2m1C9pL )
1) Pair of digitiform rhinophores on head only when full grown. Earlier growth stages with rhinophores not fully developed can resemble head crests of L. capitata; rear in captivity when in doubt; rearing details in Smith (2014).
2) Pale metapodium is 13-18.5% of body length , smaller than on L. capitata but more noticeable than on L. depressa.
3) Often a small pale dorsal spot and lateral spots form a quincunx or similar; missing on translucent specimens with visible pale viscera which can be mistaken for the dorsal mark of L. capitata.
4) Eye patches and tentacles whitish.
5) Anus a short distance behind midpoint of body.
6) Full salinity, lagoons perhaps with salinity c. 20‰, and rock pools up to MHW on exposed coasts.
Habits and ecology
L. capitata tolerates a wide range of salinities; in the Kieler Bucht, Germany, 5‰ to 40‰ at 14°C, but spawning only occurs at over 10‰ (Seelemann, 1968 in Jensen 1977). The optimum salinity in the Kattegat, Denmark, for growth and spawning is 30‰ at 15°C, though spawn is abundant at over 15‰.
Coma occurs from heat at 38-40°C and from cold at about 1°C (Jensen, 1977). Formation of ice on a shore is usually accompanied by local temporary extinction of littoral L. capitata (Jensen, 1976).
It lives sublittorally and at all levels of the shore in pools and moist situations on its food algae, primarily Cladophora rupestris (figs. 9 flic.kr/p/2m1G6Jq & 10 flic.kr/p/2m1ysh3 ) but also Chaetomorpha linum, Bryopsis plumosa (fig. 11 flic.kr/p/2m1ys8L ) and other Cladophora spp. (Jensen, 1975). These algal species are coenocytic with few or no internal cell walls subdividing the cytoplasm, which is consequently easily extracted by suction. Enteromorpha (currently genus Ulva) is sometimes mentioned as a food alga (Miller, 1962) but this is unlikely as all species in the order Ulvales, having uninucleate cells (Wichard et al. 2015), are not coenocytic, so unsuitable for suctorial feeding. Jensen (1975) observed a L. capitata grasping filaments of Enteromorpha in a feeding position, but it was unable to extract any cytoplasm. Cladophora. spp., Chaetomorpha linum and Bryopsis plumosa were equally favoured in experiments (Jensen, 1975), though in the wild most are found on Cladophora spp. as the other algae are less common. Individual L. capitata could change food in experiments, but were conservative, tending to remain on the first species encountered until all consumed. Cladophora glomerata, a freshwater species which grows well in the very low salinity of the inner Baltic (GBIF map) and forms large algal blooms in the Gulf of Finland (Berezina et al., 2007) was studied by A.-M. Jansson (1966, 1967 and 1970, in Jensen, 1975) on the island of Asko, south of Stockholm, but she found no L. capitata on it. However, L. depressa does feed on it and has been widely misidentified in the inner Baltic as L. capitata (misidentified L. depressa on probable C. glomerata at www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TBqOdGHmmI )
In L. capitata, the single row of radular teeth, adapted to only slitting and cutting (fig. 12 flic.kr/p/2m1C98J ), confines it to suctorial feeding. The leading tooth is used to puncture algal cell walls whereas the newer, unused teeth function as a spear shaft. Recently worn out older teeth are retained in an ascus sac (Thompson, 1976). Further restrictions on which algal species can be utilized may be due to the chemical structure of the algal polysaccharides and to the algal filament diameters (Jensen, 1975).
The related L. depressa feeds by holding an algal filament vertically in the groove at the front of its head while it punctures it and sucks out the cytoplasm, leaving a colourless filament. There is an apparent upper limit on the diameter of filaments that can fit into the groove, as it was observed in captivity to exhaust all available narrow filaments but to leave the thicker ones unaffected (IFS pers. obs.). The groove in front of the mouth of L. capitata (fig. 13 flic.kr/p/2m1ys1b ) is similar to that of L. depressa . The filaments of a coenocytic species of Trailiella were too thin for adult L. capitata to grip in their groove firmly enough for feeding (Jensen, 1975).
In 1973, at Hellebaek, Denmark, the intertidal population density of L. capitata peaked at 2370-2960 per litre of Cladophora in June, August and October just after settlement of newly metamorphosed juveniles less than 1.25 mm long from what seems to be three breeding events. The recorded population was zero in January to April, when water and air temperatures were below 10°C, and gradually increased in May, presumably originating from larval settlement from deeper water. The large population of L. capitata in summer was estimated to consume 1-10% of the total standing crop of Cladophora at Hellebaek (Jensen, 1975).
Copulation is by penetration by the stylet on the hypodermic penis into the body of the partner which lacks an aperture to receive it. The spawn mass, containing up to 800 ova, is deposited between June and November by two or more generations in Britain (Miller, 1962 in Thompson, 1976). The planktonic, veliger, larval stage lasts about a week at 16-17°C (Thompson, 1976). In Isefjord, Denmark, large numbers of planktonic veligers were recorded in April, August and December (Rasmussen, 1973), corresponding with hatching from the three spawning periods observed by Jensen (1975).
Distribution and status
L. capitata occurs from the Arctic to the Mediterranean and Black Sea. It extends into the Baltic to Rügen, Germany and the Øresund, Sweden further east than which the mean sea surface salinity (msss) is below 10‰ (Bendtsen et al, 2007). It may be over recorded because of incompletely developed rhinophores on juvenile L. senestra being mistaken for the crests of L. capitata. For details of misidentification and misrecording of Limapontia spp. in the inner Baltic, see the appendix below.
Common and widespread around Britain and Ireland. UK distribution map, NBN species.nbnatlas.org/species/NHMSYS0021056302 .
Appendix: Distribution of L. capitata in the Baltic Sea.
The first description of L. capitata, by Müller in 1774, was in the Baltic, ‘in Mari Balthico’. It is still present, sometimes abundantly (Jensen, 1975), in the outer Baltic to about 30° E. at Rügen, Germany (Schultze, 1849) and Øresund, Sweden. Working in the Kieler Bucht, Seelemann (1968 in Jensen 1977), found that the lower salinity limit for spawning is 10‰. The mean sea surface salinity (msss) of the inner Baltic east of Rügen-Øresund is below 10‰ (Bendtsen, 2007) and would be expected to prevent the establishment of sustainable populations of L. capitata. A study on the shores of Asko Island, south of Stockholm, (Jansson, 1966, 1967 and 1970, in Jensen, 1975), which conforms to expectations, found no L. capitata on Cladophora glomerata, a freshwater alga which grows well in the very low salinity of the inner Baltic and forms large algal blooms in the Gulf of Finland (Berezina et al., 2007).
Contrary to expectations, there are several reports of it east of Rügen-Øresund at,
1) Bornholm in 1863, current msss circa 7.5‰ (Meyer & Möbius, 1865–1872).
2) North of Stockholm at 61.1N, 17.2E, msss circa 5‰, in 1980 by Swedish Ocean Archive database (GBIF map, L. capitata).
3) Estonia, over 170 records, msss circa 5-6‰, 2008-2017 by Estonian Naturalists’ Society (GBIF map, L. capitata).
4) Finland, 450 records, msss circa 5-6‰, mainly 1990-2020, by Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility.
The Bornholm record has several reasons for reserve, apart from the low salinity. While the illustrations from Kieler Bucht (fig. 14 flic.kr/p/2m54gkU ) show that Meyer and Möbius (1865–1872) recognised correctly the features of L. capitata, the Bornholm specimens were found in 1863 when it is unlikely that M&M were familiar with Limapontia depressa, first described by Alder and Hancock only in the previous year and without published image. The specimens were collected for M&M by a fisherman who said that he found them abundantly under littoral stones. This is not the usual habitat of L. capitata, which lives on filamentous algae, mainly Cladophora spp.; one wonders how reliable the reported location is. It is desirable that this record be checked with fieldwork and photography.
The other localities have salinities well below the level suitable for spawning of L. capitata so its presence needs substantiation with detailed images. The only Baltic images labelled L. capitata found by IFS on the web are a video and two photographs from Finnish waters by K. Könönen at www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TBqOdGHmmI and laji.fi/en/taxon/MX.212476/images , which are all misidentified L. depressa lacking the substantial pale metapodium, large pale dorsal mark and distinct head crests of L. capitata. In 2012, on a blog by an artist for the Marine Research Centre at Stockholm University, there was a detailed painting labelled ’L. capitata’ from north of Stockholm, which was a perfect match for Hancock’s image of P. depressa (fig. 7 flic.kr/p/2m1HAoU ). See the ‘Key identification features’ and ‘Similar species’ sections of the main account above for detail of the historical confusion of the two spp.
Pruvot-Fol (1954) aggregated P. depressa with L. capitata as L. nigra as she could find no distinctive features to characterize them. In her description she used poor copies of 110 year old images of Limapontia spp. from Quatrefages (1844) and followed his omission of L. depressa which was not described by Alder and Hancock until 18 years after he wrote. Gascoigne (1975) and Thompson (1976) showed clear, anatomical differences which counter Pruvot-Fol’s opinion.
At the same time (June 2021) as showing multiple records of presumed L. capitata in Estonian and Finnish waters, the GBIF map for L. depressa and the Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility website have a complete absence in the same waters of records for L. depressa which has populations that can breed at the salinities found there, while L. capitata cannot. A video and two photographs from Finland and a painting from north of Stockholm, all mislabelled ‘L. capitata’, show that L. depressa does live in the inner Baltic. Over 30 records (1998-2012) on the GBIF map of L. depressa by the Swedish Ocean Archive database (SHARK) show that L. depressa lives on the coast of the inner Baltic in the Swedish counties of Kalmar and Blekinge.
Jonne Kotta of the Estonian Marine Institute, University of Tartu, agrees that all the Estonian records of L. capitata shown on GBIF are misidentified L. depressa and should be renamed on the database (J. Kotta, 2021, pers. comm., 14 June).
It is desirable that more photographs are obtained of Limapontia in the inner Baltic to substantiate or alter the evidence, reasoning and opinions presented above. This account will be amended if new evidence requires it.

i FOUND THIS INFO THAT INDICATES IT IS INDEED DIVERGENS. A close look at the stem leaves shot that they are opposite not alternate.
The basal cluster of leaves seen here are much broader than thick while the leaves of the flowering stems are alternate. The stem leaves of the similar spreading stonecrop (Sedum divergens) are opposite.

〔File__O2〕拼貼╳黃子欽
黃子欽是設計者,創作者,也是記憶的封存者。擔任過櫥窗設計、平面設計,善用收集的大量舊書及物件,在平面中打開空間,拼貼推疊成具有空間感的視覺效果。1996年至今,他以保麗膠為素材,「書的記憶」「固體記憶—黃子欽的影像裝置展」「記憶標本」「日常枯槁」「破音大王」等個人作品展。2012年出版書籍設計作品集《PLAY.紙標本》,2014年與新世代作家共同創作《暴民画報:島國青年俱樂部》,收錄自318學運以來持續創作的近百幅拼貼。
Q1. 你怎麼看待「拼貼」這個書設計元素?
會用「拼貼」是來自我的個性,我沒辦法很簡單地講一件事情,常覺得表達得不夠完整。一開始也使用過攝影或繪畫,後來發現我比較喜歡複合式的語言,透過各種比對,在腦袋裡反覆辯證,慢慢產生內容。我是比較「高拐」的人,沒辦法接受一般教育的那套,才自己發展出複合式語言。很多的美學教育其實是僵化的,我會想去喬一喬,不一定能喬出像要的,但想動手試試看。
現在書籍封面的設計,傾向於低密度的、資訊少的、扁平化的,即使選擇了資訊密度低的設計,就需要有較高的美學高度,去形成一種有象徵、有指涉的儀式感。現在的設計常常是參考成熟的layout,少了「混亂」的思考過程和背後的內涵來支撐,就直接去做了,我覺得那是「layout 消費法」。我們的社會其實沒有那麼高發展,不像北歐、日本可以去理解極簡,台灣其實是多元的,有很多層次,不管設計或出版,應該可以保留這樣的生命力。
即使我喜歡經過混亂,但拼貼過後所呈現的複雜,其實需要簡化,最後的複雜已經不是原來的那些東西,要經過提煉過程,架構起來做出一個系統。在動手拼貼前, 常常要跟客戶先確認清楚,必須有比較精準且集中的討論才能決定怎麼做。做設計的常常會遇到客戶一直改,一直改一定是有問題的,但不見得一直改就能解決問 題,我寧願在前期花更多時間去瞭解對方的需求。
Q2. 「拼貼」元素在你的設計作品中,你喜歡哪些呢?
1.《濫情者》
把城市當成廢墟考察,再把收集的標本展示出來,暗示著讀者觀看的同時也在被消費著……
2.《日本人的縮小意識:豆物狂的傳奇》
紙本書+玩具紙盒=魔術書,兩者結合,即可置入無限想像。
3.《美援年代的往事並不如煙》
置入式廣告的概念,八○年代經濟起飛的氣息,蘋果西打、台豐汽水、香吉士、可爾必思的廣告印象,重要的東西都忘了,但那些可有可無、生活中的消費訊息,卻如此深刻。
4. 《請問么零么在哪裡》
縮小的池上便當感,成套的木頭名信片。
5.《幻想圖書館》
將腦中異想實體化的劇場櫥窗,我用電影工業實物搭棚的手法,展現書的平行想像空間。
6.《暴民画報:島國青年俱樂部》
書名聳動,而畫面充滿童趣感,甚至還有微酸無奈⋯⋯傳達台灣社會底層邊緣地帶的心聲!如書封上的「心酸繁榮飯桶空空」、「啞吧噪音」⋯⋯
Q3.「拼貼」元素與裝幀設計搭配得很厲害的國內外書籍,你會推薦哪幾本?
1.《フォトモ―路上写真の新展開》
糸崎公朗的「非人稱藝術」,介於攝影跟路上觀察學。
2.《Evidence:The Art of Candy Jernigan》
藝術家Candy Jernigan蒐集了許多來自不同環境的實體物件,有餐巾紙、一罐水、公路上的垃圾,拍照註記,將各種混亂整理成形,有種證物的感覺。
3.《橫尾少年》與《Tadanori Yokoo Selected Posters 116》
這兩本都跟日本國寶級大師橫尾忠則有關,風格很有個性,他喜歡棒球,封面放自己的照片,也很有畫報風格。
4.《美術手帖:日本.未來.美術》特集
會田誠是會把美少女開腸破肚那種,畫風很繁複繽紛,大竹伸朗也是做繁複的拼貼,他們兩個的風格我都蠻喜歡的,二者在日本被歸類成同一個系統。
Q4.櫥窗設計的經驗,對你的書籍設計有哪些影響
我記得第一次做櫥窗的主題是「嗜甜」,我用了真的烹飪用具、真的櫥櫃、滿滿的香料餅乾、甜食糖果,其實就是一個不斷可以打開的盒子。印象比較深刻還有誠品八週年慶的櫥窗,主題是「慾望之翼」,我用了機芯讓那個模型人不斷轉圈,還有一次做開學書展,用了真的課桌椅、課表、舊書,以及從舊書店買來的畢業紀念冊,拼貼成書店的一面牆,讓原始的圖像跟人群接觸,產生新的訊息。好玩的是,還有客人問,怎麼牆上會有他小時候的照片。
當時做了很多自己喜歡的東西,我從「材質」得到很多靈感,發現可以這樣去取材,獲得新的想像空間跟語言,而且幾乎是沒有止境的。要做櫥窗就要有實體,從有機世界取材,出來的力道會更有能量。我曾經非常憧憬向量圖,現在大家都在做向量圖了,我反而願意回頭追求更原始的。只要原始,就是複雜,真實的物件會有不同的層次,帶出不同的解釋跟溫度。

GLOSSARY below.
Among British species, A. loveni is unique in its external anatomy and mode of life, but there are closely similar Armina species elsewhere. It cannot be ruled out that DNA investigation might reveal more than one cryptic species in British waters.
Body
Up to 40 mm long, and covered by, in dorsal view, a lanceolate mantle, slenderest at the posterior 1Al flic.kr/p/25oNtA3 . It can contract from slender 2Al flic.kr/p/22GzK9s to stout 3Al flic.kr/p/FNowKT . The smooth brick-red surface has up to 50 irregularly wavy, white, longitudinal ridges 4Al flic.kr/p/22GzHRC which are more or less continuous for the length of the mantle; strong ones alternating with weaker ones 3Al flic.kr/p/FNowKT . The mantle has a whitish peripheral border 3Al flic.kr/p/FNowKT that has many protruding translucent glands ventrally 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF . The front edge of the mantle is indented 1Al flic.kr/p/25oNtA3 and raised 4Al flic.kr/p/22GzHRC to accommodate the protruding rhinophores. Some specimens have a broad, partial, transverse, paler zone near the anterior and slightly more than half way along the mantle 2Al flic.kr/p/22GzK9s .
The head consists of a pair of rhinophores with a forward protruding caruncle at their united base, a large, oval, cephalic shield 6Al flic.kr/p/25oNr3h and, below the shield, orange mouthparts 7Al flic.kr/p/25stCt6 . The proximal face of the shield is attached to the body along a short central section of its transverse diameter. When not burrowing in sediment, the shield is usually folded along its transverse diameter so the distal face is concealed within the fold, and the proximal face forms both the dorsum and venter of the folded shield 6Al flic.kr/p/25oNr3h . When not feeding, the orange tubular mouth 7Al flic.kr/p/25stCt6 & 8Al flic.kr/p/25oNqrs is not engorged, and a circular oral veil is exposed 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF . When feeding, the mouthparts containing strong jaws are everted and greatly engorged 9Al flic.kr/p/246z93K .
The cephalic shield can be held in various positions:
a) Folded flat with the distal face concealed in the fold 6Al flic.kr/p/25oNr3h ; fully exposing the rhinophores and caruncle 10Al flic.kr/p/25stBeH .
b) Partially unfolded when moving the shield into position 'c' 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i .
c) Completely unfolded into the form of a snow plough, with the previously hidden distal face forming the anterior of the plough 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i for moving through the surface layer of a soft substrate. The protruding caruncle holds a gap open between the shield and the mantle edge for an inhalent respiratory flow of water. In this configuration the proximal face is concealed.
d) With the cephalic shield forming maximum cover so only the rhinophores and a small respiratory gap are left 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i to project above the mud it is concealed in 12Al flic.kr/p/25stAkD .
The rhinophores are a pair of whitish ovoids with a small colourless nipple on the summit and short stems that unite at the base 13Al flic.kr/p/25stztZ . They are shallowly fluted to form vertical lamellae, but the fluting on each rhinophore can expand into about seven bifid branches when in the shelter of the raised mantle 13Al flic.kr/p/25stztZ . There is small black eye on the stem of each rhinophore. The lateral body wall is translucent white with a few dark flecks, and orange viscera are indistinctly visible within 14Al flic.kr/p/HjKSV3 . A bunch of orange, lateral lamellae is attached to the hyponotum on each side close to the head 14Al flic.kr/p/HjKSV3 , and the rest of the hyponotum is corrugated with numerous, smaller, obliquely orientated, orange/yellow (probably respiratory) ribs 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF .
The ample foot and mantle can easily meet 15Al flic.kr/p/246z6ir to form a secure seal against the ingress of sediment onto the mantle cavity when the slug is buried in the substrate. The sole is yellowish 16Al flic.kr/p/246z5ND or white tinged with red (Thompson & Brown, 1984) and has a median groove. The anterior is rounded with no propodial tentacles, and the posterior tapers to a point.
The penis 14Al flic.kr/p/HjKSV3 is a slender, bluntly tipped cylinder when extended on the right close to the head (Thomson & Brown, 1984).
Key identification features
Armina loveni
1: Lanceolate, smooth, brick-red mantle with irregularly wavy, white, longitudinal ridges 2Al flic.kr/p/22GzK9s .
2 Large folded cephalic shield 6Al flic.kr/p/25oNr3h that can unfold to form an anterior like a snow plough 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i .
3 White ovoid rhinophores with vertical grooves project from below anterior of mantle 13Al flic.kr/p/25stztZ .
4 Multiple orange/yellow (probably respiratory) ribs on underside of mantle 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF .
Similar species
No other north west European nudibranch has the above key features. In the Mediterranean and Bay of Biscay, A. neapolitana is virtually identical externally, but its lateral teeth are flattened and cusped (Schmekel & Portmann, 1982) while they are smooth hooks on A. loveni (17Al flic.kr/p/2pe8Loa and Thompson & Brown, 1984).
Habits and ecology
A video of the life habits of the very similar Pacific A. californica is at youtu.be/ef4nn45MDrs .
A. loveni lives sublittorally in situations lacking wave disturbance from 10m to 75m on mud 9Al flic.kr/p/246z93K , sand or gravel 10Al flic.kr/p/25stBeH where sea pens live. It feeds mainly on Virgularia mirabilis www.habitas.org.uk/marinelife/species.asp?item=D10560 and sometimes on other sea pen species such as Funiculina quadrangularis 9Al flic.kr/p/246z93K & (Picton & Morrow) www.habitas.org.uk/marinelife/species.asp?item=D10500 . To feed, it everts and engorges its mouthparts and strips the polyps from the rachis, starting at the base of the Sea pen. Denuded rachises are a sign that A. loveni is probably close by 18Al flic.kr/p/24nNCum . When not feeding, it conceals itself below the surface of soft sediment with just the rhinophores and the rim of the respiratory gap of the mantle showing 12Al flic.kr/p/25stAkD . It senses its prey with its chemoreceptor rhinophores which are always held clear of the substrate with the small eye protruding just beyond the mantle edge. The body surface is touch sensitive to predators which it repels with repugnatorial substances from glands in the mantle rim 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF . Thomson & Brown (1984) stated that the caruncle 13Al flic.kr/p/25stztZ is sensory, but the very similar A. californica has no caruncle, and its function of holding open the anterior respiratory gap is performed by a pair of large, white, lateral flanges (Williams, 2008). The inhalent respiratory current enters the gap and flows through the lateral lamellae 14Al flic.kr/p/HjKSV3 and over the (probably respiratory) ribs in the large mantle cavity extending the length of the animal on either side 5Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF . When buried, the cavity is kept clear of sediment by the inhalent gap being held above the substrate 12Al flic.kr/p/25stAkD , and by the ample foot and mantle probably forming a seal elsewhere 15Al flic.kr/p/246z6ir . The spawn is a tightly coiled pale pink thread.
Distribution and status
Scotland, northern half of North Sea, Kattegat, S. Norway and a few records from Ireland and SW England; probably under-recorded as conceals itself in the substrate, GBIF map www.gbif.org/species/2291818 (Large numbers in North Sea may result from a survey data input error) . Most British records are from Scotland; U.K. map NBN species.nbnatlas.org/species/NHMSYS0021056200
Discussion
This account is based on examination and photographs of a live specimen in laboratory conditions, photographs of live A. loveni in the wild and a video of the life habits of the similar A. californica. Online sources and several publications describing preserved distorted specimens were consulted. These sources differed in interpretation from each other, so it is unavoidable that this account differs from them in parts.
For the flat feature that can be raised at the anterior I have used the term cephalic shield as it is part of the head and, when required, it shields the rest of the head, and the mantle cavity.
Thompson & Brown (1976) stated, 'the head is large and flattened, produced laterally into pointed tentacles'. They made no mention of a shield, but their image 19Al flic.kr/p/25XZjXS shows that they were referring to the folded shield as the head and tentacles. Thompson & Brown (1984) made the same statement with ‘pointed tentacles’ changed to ‘blunt tentacles’ and a different image showing the ends of the folded cephalic shield as that feature. The lateral ends of the ovoid cephalic shield on live specimens do not resemble tentacles in any of the many positions they can assume 06Al flic.kr/p/25oNr3h & 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i . As they had no experience of live specimens, Thompson and Brown would not have seen the shield unfolded for action.
Schmekel & Portmann (1982), describing the externally similar A. neapolitana, wrote 'cephalic veil oval', which describes the form but not the function of the feature. Kolb (1998) cited this but she wrote 'oral veil distinct ' and labelled the cephalic shield on a figure of a distorted preserved specimen of A. loveni as 'oral veil'.
Though Kolb misinterpreted the cephalic shield as an oral veil there is, in fact, a circular oral veil around the mouth 05Al flic.kr/p/FNovSF but she and Thompson & Brown did not record it, probably because they studied preserved material on which the veil was hidden. Divers photographing live A. loveni in the wild rarely take ventral photographs so they, too, seem not to have observed the oral veil.
Picton & Morrow (1994 & 2023), having observed live specimens, wrote, 'The foot forms a shield across the front of the head'; but the cephalic shield 11Al flic.kr/p/FNou8i is not part of the foot as the mouth is below it 07Al flic.kr/p/25stCt6 & 08Al flic.kr/p/25oNqrs .

I uploaded 18 in one go, because I think they belong together...
Monochromatic? Not really he? All the shades of grey... from a true black to a pure white... as it should be!
Sometimes I just 'feeeeeeeeel' like this, a flower image in b&w...
I love the subtle tones, all the varied tones, that give the flower/petals/stems their texture, depth and form, their delectable shapes accentuated, extracted and emphasized without the colour. Don't you agree?
MORE THAN EVER:
Lead and enjoy a good life, do and say things that enrich... and do not forget to tell the people close to you, how much you love them!
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

The Divine Mercy Shrine in Kraków, Poland is a Roman Catholic basilica dedicated to the Divine Mercy devotion, as the resting place of Saint Faustina Kowalska, canonized on April 30, 2000.
The new basilica was built between 1999–2002, and is located in the District of Łagiewniki at św. Faustyny street. Three Popes have visited the shrine and millions of pilgrims from around the world continue to visit it every year
The site of the building originally housed the neo-Gothic monastery complex of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy (founded in 1862), which was designed by Charles Zaremba and was built between 1889–1891. In 1966, the remains of Sister Faustina were moved to the church. In 1968 Cardinal Karol Wojtyła (later Pope John Paul II) designated the church as a shrine, thanks to the remains of Sister Faustina.
In 1985, Pope John Paul II called Lagiewniki the "capital of the Divine Mercy devotion". Since the beatification of Saint Faustina in 1993, her remains rest on the altar, below the image of Divine Mercy.
In 1999–2002, a modern two-story, ellipsoidal basilica, specifically devoted to the Divine Mercy was built.The building was designed to resemble a boat, and has a 77-meter high observation tower that resembles a mast.
The basilica can accommodate about 5,000 people and the main chapel has about 1,800 seats. The altar in the main sanctuary houses the Divine Mercy painting and relics of Saint Faustina. The image above the main altar was painted by Adolph Hyla in 1944, and replaces the first image Hyla painted in 1943 as a votive offering for surviving during World War II. The image and the basilica are a major pilgrimage site and in 2011 the basilica received around 2 million pilgrims from around the world.
The lower level of the church has a central a chapel dedicated to Saint Faustina, with four side chapels. The upper part of the basilica has free-standing post-modern Chapel of Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. On June 24, 2007, on the 60th anniversary of Operation Vistula, the Basilica opened a Greek Catholic chapel dedicated to reconciliation, and as a gift to the Greek Catholic Church.
In March 1981, while praying at the tomb of St. Faustina at the church, Maureen Digan of Massachusetts reported a healing. Digan had suffered from lymphedema for decades, and had undergone 10 operations, including a leg amputation. Digan reported that while praying at Faustina's tomb she heard a voice saying "ask for my help and I will help you" and her constant pain stopped.
Upon her return to the US, five Boston area physicians stated that she was healed (with no explanation). Digan's healing was declared miraculous by the Vatican in 1992, and paved the way for the beatification of Faustina Kowalska.
On June 17, 1997 Pope John Paul II visited the church to pray at the tomb of Saint Faustina - an event commemorated by a relief at the entrance to the chapel.
In May 2006, Benedict XVI visited the chapel, and a second relief commemorates that. During the 2006 pilgrimage by Pope Benedict XVI, he unveiled a statue of Pope John Paul II at the observation tower at the basilica, as the seventh sculpture of John Paul II in Kraków.
In July 2016, Pope Francis visited the Basilica as part of the Jubilee Year of Mercy and as part of the International World Youth Day celebrations taking place in Kraków.

Extaordinariamenete pequeña y activa, Spirulina subsalsa no parece un organismo microscópico si no fuera por su tamaño, el caso es que serpentea en el agua como si fuese una culebrilla. Gira sobre sí misma mientras su cuerpo ondula y se estira levemente, atornillando ágilmente el agua con su cuerpo de muelle. Spirulina subsala es una cianobacteria, ser minúsculo, tan pequeño como primitivo, medio alga, medio bacteria y desde luego, por sus movimientos, medio culebra ▷.
Muchas de las especies de este género de cianobacterias viven en aguas salobres y Spirulina subsalsa parece que puede hacerlo también en aguas dulces, se trata de una de las de más pequeño tamaño del grupo, pero es algo mayor que Spirulina subtilissima, con la que podría confundirse. Su espiral, de poco más de tres milésimas de milímeto de anchura, es una espiral flexible y animada por la vida ▷, allá en los fondos acuáticos donde la luz no llega y donde encuentrta los nutrientes necesarios para poder desarrollarse. Vive entre las ruinas de naufragio de millones y millones de seres, cascarones de diatomeas, fragmentos de alga, restos de la arquitectura prodigiosa de pequeños invertebrados, los que conforman el paisaje fantástico entre el que Spirulina vive y renueva la vida en el Lago en el que habita, Lago de Sanabria.
El género Spirulina está constituido por un pequeño número de especies que ronda las cincuenta. Casi todas ellas suelen vivir en zonas de aguas casi estancadas y ricas en materia orgánica. La de hoy, probablemente Spirulina subsalsa, no es muy común, aunque existen de ella algunas citas en la Península procedentes de aguas saladas o salobres.
Actualmente algunas especies de Spirulina se consumen como suplemento dietético por su alto contenido en vitamina B12 y proteínas, aunque se conoce que fueron ya empleadas hace siglos.
Los antiguos pobladores de México cultivaban algunas especies de este género principalmente en el lago de Texcoco - ya desparecido- para obtener un suplemento alimentario. En el libro de La Conquista de México de Francisco López de Gómara , se señala "Pocas cosas vivas dejan de comer. Culebras sin cola ni cabeza, perrillos que no gañen, castrados y cebados; topos, lirones, ratones, lombrices, piojos y hasta tierra, porque con unas redes de malla muy menuda barren, en cierto tiempo del año, una cosa molida que se cría sobre el agua de las lagunas de México, y se cuaja, que ni es hierba, ni tierra, sino una especie de cieno. Hay mucho de ello y cogen mucho y en eras, como quien hace sal, los vacían, y allí se cuaja y seca. Lo hacen tortas como ladrillos, y no sólo las venden en el mercado, sino que las llevan también a otros fuera de la ciudad y lejos. Comen esto como nosotros el queso, y así tiene un saborcillo de sal, que con chilmolli es sabroso. Y dicen que a este cebo vienen tantas aves a la laguna, que muchas veces en el invierno la cubren por algunos sitios." .
A veces, si las condiciones son favorables, muchas especies de Spirulina se puede desarrollar de forma masiva.
Spirulina subsalsa , se ha fotografiado a 400 aumentos con la técncia de contraste de interferencia y se ha encontrado en una muestra recogida sobre sedimentos a 20 metros de profundidad en el Lago de Sanabria (Zamora), desde el catamarán Helios Sanabria el primer catamarán construido en el Planeta propulsado por energía eólica y solar.
INFORMATION ON BASIL:
Basil (Ocimum basilicum), of the Family Lamiaceae. Basil is a tender low-growing herb that is grown as a perennial in warm, tropical climates. Basil is originally native to Iran, India and other tropical regions of Asia, having been cultivated there for more than 5,000 years. There are many varieties of basil, that which is used in Italian food is typically called sweet basil, as opposed to Thai basil or holy basil, which are used in Asia. It is prominently featured in Italian cuisine, and also plays a major role in the Southeast Asian cuisines of Thai, Vietnamese and Laotian. It grows to between 30–130 cm tall, with opposite, light green, silky leaves 3–11 cm long and 1–6 cm broad. The flowers are quite big, white in color and arranged in a terminal spike. Unusual among Lamiaceae, the four stamens and the pistil are not pushed under the upper lip of the corolla, but lay over the inferior. After entomophilous pollination, the corolla falls off and four round achenes develop inside the bilabiate calyx. The plant tastes somewhat like anise, with a strong, pungent, sweet smell. Basil is very sensitive to cold, with best growth in hot, dry conditions. While most common varieties are treated as annuals, some are perennial, including African Blue and Holy Thai basil.
The word basil comes from the Greek βασιλεύς (basileus), meaning "king", as it is believed to have grown above the spot where St. Constantine and Helen discovered the Holy Cross. The Oxford English Dictionary quotes speculations that basil may have been used in "some royal unguent, bath, or medicine". Basil is still considered the "king of herbs" by many cookery authors. An alternative etymology has "basil" coming from the Latin word basilicus, meaning dragon and being the root for basilisk, but this likely was a linguistic reworking of the word as brought from Greece.
INFORMATION ON THE CUCUMBER:
The cucumber (Cucumis sativus)is a widely cultivated plant in the gourd family Cucurbitaceae, which includes squash, and in the same genus as the muskmelon. The cucumber is a creeping vine that roots in the ground and grows up trellises or other supporting frames, wrapping around ribbing with thin, spiraling tendrils. The plant has large leaves that form a canopy over the fruit.
The fruit is roughly cylindrical, elongated, with tapered ends, and may be as large as 60 cm long and 10 cm in diameter. Cucumbers grown to be eaten fresh (called slicers) and those intended for pickling (called picklers) are similar. Cucumbers are mainly eaten in the unripe green form. The ripe yellow form normally becomes too bitter and sour.
Having an enclosed seed and developing from a flower, cucumbers are scientifically classified as fruits. Much like tomatoes and squash, however, their sour-bitter flavor contributes to cucumbers being perceived, prepared and eaten as vegetables. Still, "vegetable" is a purely culinary term, and there is no conflict in classifying cucumber as both a fruit and a vegetable.
INFORMATION ON THE GREEN BEAN:
Green beans (American English), French beans or runner beans (British English), also called squeaky beans, are the unripe fruit of any kind of bean, including the yardlong bean, the hyacinth bean, the winged bean, and especially the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), whose pods are also usually called string beans in the northeastern United States, but can also go by snap beans. Varieties have been bred especially for the fleshiness, flavor, or sweetness of their pods. Smaller bean pods are often referred to by the French name haricots verts. The first "stringless" bean was bred in 1894 by Calvin Keeney, called the "father of the stringless bean." Keeney worked in Le Roy, New York.
Green beans are of nearly universal distribution. They are marketed canned, frozen and fresh. A dish with green beans popular in the southern United States, particularly at Thanksgiving, is green bean casserole. Some restaurants in the USA serve green beans that are battered and fried. Green beans are also sold dried and fried with vegetables like carrots, corn, and radishes. They are also rich in vitamin C.
Haricots verts, French for "green beans," may refer to a longer, thinner type of green beans than the typical, American green beans.

We spent a beautiful summer day in Low Tatras on Saturday. Left home in the morning and hiked from Srdiečko to Chopok, Ďumbier and back to Srdiečko where we left our car. Ďumbier (2,043 m) and Chopok (2,024 m) are two highest peaks of Low Tatras and are connected by the long distance E8 European walking route leading 4,700 km (2,920 miles) across Europe, from Kerry in Ireland to Istanbul in Turkey.
We had a nice sunny weather at the beginning so I was testing a new Heliopan polarizer.. yup it's a top quality ;) Anyways it got a bit cloudy later and all those beautiful panoramic views were quite hazy. So I tried to focus on nice details instead. This shot shows a zig-zag walking trail leading to the North part of Low Tatras that you can see from Demänovské sedlo (1,756 m).
Thanks for looking!

Blue, blue, my world is blue,
blue is my world now I’m without you
Gray, gray, my life is gray,
cold is my heart since you went away
Red, red, my eyes are red,
crying for you alone in my bed
Green, green, my jealous heart,
I doubted you and now we’re apart
When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone
Black, black, the nights I’ve known, longing for you so lost and alone

Cala Gonone, Sardegna.
Depuis le 3 Octobre, plus de 200 familles dorment dans la rue de la Banque pour protester contre l'absence de logements décents. Français ou immigrés en situation régulière, tous travaillent mais vivent dans des conditions déplorables: le plus souvent à l'hôtel, ou dans des appartements minuscules, parfois menacés d'expulsion.
Le 9 Décembre, une petite fête avait été organisée pour célébrer la naissance d'un 5e enfant parmi les familles de la rue de la Banque, et pour installer un sapin de Noël. Même si la pluie, et la situation tendue d'un autre campement rue d'Aubervilliers vinrent un peu gâcher l'ambiance, Guy Bedos vint apporter son soutien aux familles.

Same set-up as the initial test to compare the camera body Nikon D7000 vs the Sony NEX5-N:
www.flickr.com/photos/episa/6191987109/in/photostream
The findings at the focal length of 35mm are similar to the findings on the 24mm test:
- the resolution of the Sony body is at least just as good as the Nikon body.
- the high end Leica M lenses when mounted on the Sony body with a special adapter do not significantly outperform in resolution the entry level Sony zoom: the advantages of the Leica M design known for giving 3D like rendering on the Leica M9 do not seem to make an impact on the E mount design; at the same time the Sony lens seems to receive some in camera processing that improves its resolution/sharpening appearance in the final JPEG file.
- the color rendering of the Sony NEX5-N is whiter (less warm) than the Nikon. The last picture with the Sony lens 18-55mm was taken while a cloud obstructed some of the direct yellow sunlight and exagerates the cool rendering.

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).

══════════════════════════════════
A Warning and an Upgrade
On the weekend of 25/26 April 2009 laminated cards headed: ”WARNING NOTICE” were tied to columns in the streets of Tottenham Hale Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ). They announced "New parking signs and lines"; and that "Parking signs and road markings have been programmed to be upgraded".
I talked to some of our neighbours who were also looking at the notices. What did they make of this "warning", with a promise of something "new"? What exactly was this particular "upgrade"?
They didn't know. I don't expect many local residents did know.
Stripping away spin and obfuscation, this was the work done.
► Some faded yellow and white traffic and parking lines were repainted.
► Hundreds of lines were corrected because they were unlawful and did not comply with the Statutory Regulations.
► That's it!
In 2009 having parking lines which did not comply with the law wasn't a problem unique to Haringey Council. Click here to read about the mess which many local authorities across the country made of their traffic lines and signs. (Use the 'Back' button to return.)
Haringey's Parking and Highways Service - under the 'leadership' of former Labour councillor Brian Haley - was slower than many to come out of denial, admit they were doing it wrong, and agree a programme for repainting lines and getting them right.
Wording of the Temporary Notices
Does the wording of these notices really matter? After all, the work was finished within three weeks, when most of the temporary laminated cards had gone.
In my view, it does matter. How local councils inform and explain things to residents is a vital issue. "Warning" them and promising a spurious "upgrade" is a symptom of a diseased, secretive culture.
"The highest standards of propriety and accuracy"
Haringey's website has a page headed: Setting the Record Straight. It includes this paragraph.
"But in spite of our best efforts, media reports are not always accurate. People have a right to reliable information, just as we have a duty to provide it. That is why we introduced this section to the site. The information we provide is subject to a Code of Conduct under the Local Government Act 1986. This means we are bound by the highest standards of propriety and accuracy in providing information.
My request to Dr Ita O'Donovan
In the spirit of these golden words on Haringey's website, on 28 April 2009 I wrote to Dr Ita O'Donovan, then Haringey's Chief Executive. I asked for her help in getting the laminated cards replaced with notices which were simple, clear and truthful.
I proposed the wording: "We are correcting some errors in the existing white and yellow traffic lines and repainting lines which are faded". I suggested that the words: "We apologise for any inconvenience", would have been welcome.
Dr O'Donovan's reply on 14 May, over two weeks later, was almost wholly negative. She wrote:
"I have looked into this matter as you have requested. I feel that there is little difference in the message of the notice currently being used and that which you propose. Given that these works are due to be completed within the next two weeks I do not feel it would be an effective use of the Council’s scarce resources to reprint and put up fresh notices."
"The work itself will result in minimal inconvenience to residents but I do accept that an apology for any inconvenience could have been included on the signs. I will arrange for this to be included in any future signs of this nature."
I emailed back, agreeing with Dr O'Donovan that it was by then too late and would waste resources to put up truthful signs. But I pointed out this wouldn't have been the case if she had acted immediately when I raised the problem with her.
I suggested that a few dozen laminated A3 cards and some nylon tape are not prohibitively costly. Probably no more than Haringey Council was then paying for a few minutes of the time of one of the numerous consultants it then employed.
I quoted the words of the (then) Prime Minister, Gordon Brown on 11 May 2008. "We must show we have the highest standards for our profession. And we must show that, where mistakes have been made and errors have been discovered, where wrongs have to be righted, that that is done so immediately."

A chance to understand public information
All bureaucracies try to hide behind a curtain of jargon. Local government is not immune. And this is after decades of campaigning by the Plain English Campaign with its highly prized 'Crystal Mark'.
In 1971, its founder Chrissie Maher asked: ‘Why isn’t the public given a chance to understand public information?’ She gave the answers: ‘To keep them in the dark.’ ‘To stop them claiming what is rightfully theirs.’ ‘To stop them interfering in things they wouldn’t understand’." ( Source: Chrissie Maher's book "Born To Crusade")
Though some people in local government do 'get it'.
”Without explaining what a council does in proper English then local people will fail to understand its relevance to them or why they should bother to turn out and vote. Unless information is given to people to explain why their council matters then local democracy will be threatened with extinction.”
“ . . . we can not, must not and should not hide behind impenetrable jargon and phrases. We do not pretend to be perfect, but as this list shows, we are striving to make sure that people get the chance to understand what services we provide." .
(Source: Two quotes by the late Simon Milton, then Chair of the Local Government Association.)
________________
For an individual or an organisation, admitting your mistakes can be embarrassing. It's tempting to fudge and obfuscate. Though for local councils who have had non-compliant traffic lines and signs for many years, the worry may not be public shame, but public finance. In other words, it may open the door to claims for PCNs (fines) to be repaid.

George Orwell's novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four
was first published in 1949.
Orwell wanted English written with clarity.
He said “Good prose is like a window pane”.
In his bleak fable of a totalitarian future Orwell imagined English replaced by “Newspeak”. "… the special function of certain Newspeak words … was not so much to express meanings as to destroy them.”
Sixty years later, "Newspeak" has been reinvented as "Spin", "Narrative", and other variations of deceptive and manipulative news management.

向日葵花语的含义
“更无柳絮因风起,惟有葵花向日倾”的向日葵是俄罗斯的国花。这向往光明之花,给人带来美好的希望。传说古代有一位农夫女儿名叫明姑,被后娘百般凌辱虐待。一次惹怒了后娘,夜里熟睡之际被后娘挖掉了眼睛。明姑破门出逃,不久死去,死后坟上开着一盘鲜丽的黄花,终日面向阳光,它就是向日葵。向日葵表示明姑向往光明,厌恶黑暗之意,这传说激励人们痛恨暴力、黑暗,追求光明。
sunflower 向日葵,朝阳花
向日葵又叫朝阳花,因其花常朝着太阳而得名。英语称之为sunflower却不是因为它的这一特性,而是因为它的黄花开似太阳的缘故,虽然sunflower也多少带着“向日”的含义。sunflower一词是16世纪到17世纪从拉丁语flos solis借译过来的。向日葵的法语和意大利语名称tournesol,girasol同汉语名称一样,也是基于“向日”这一特性来命名的。美国堪萨斯州因盛产向日葵有Sunflower State的别称。
向日葵的花语有很多种
(1) 生日花:向日葵(Sunflower)花 语:太阳(The Sun)向日葵具有向光性,人们称它为「太阳花」,随太阳回绕的花。在古代的印加帝国,它是太阳神的象徵。因此向日葵的花语就是-太阳。受到这种花祝福而诞生的人,具有一颗如太阳般明朗、快乐的心。他是许多人倾慕、仰赖的对象,也因此他始终无法安定下来,并认真的接受一份感情,具有晚婚的倾向。
(2) 生日花:野生向日葵(Perennial Sunflower)花 语:投缘(Affinity)野生向日葵的用途很广:种子可以做成点心、还可以提炼食用油、叶片是家畜喜爱的饲料、花可以做成染料等。它和我们的日常生活可是息息相关的,是一种和人类相当投缘的植物。因此,它的花语是-投缘。受到这种花祝福而生的人是理想的情人,更是最佳的终生伴侣。为了让你的他(她)早日出
(3)光辉、高傲、忠诚、爱慕
(4) 向日葵的花语是勇敢的去追求自己想要的幸福
(5) 向日葵花语:爱慕、光辉、忠诚
(6) 向日葵的花语是——沉默的爱.向日葵又叫望日莲一个很美的名字当文森特把自己身体的那一小小部分送给他所爱是人时那不只是沉默的爱
【形态特征】
向日葵四季皆可,主要以夏、冬两季为主。花期可达两周以上。向日葵除了外型酷似太阳以外,她的花朵明亮大方,适合观赏摆饰,她的种子更具经济价值,不但可作成受人喜爱的葵瓜子,更可榨出低胆固醇的高级食用葵花油。向日葵的品种可分为〃一般观赏用〃品种或〃食用〃品种,一般观赏用品种特征为植株较矮小,通常不超过半公尺,因此适合栽种于盆栽中;食用品种则植株较为高大,种于一般露天苗圃土壤中,可长至2公尺以上。向日葵生长相当迅速,通常种植约两个月即可开花,其花型有单瓣、重瓣或单花、多花之分,花期相当长久可达两周以上。
【从生物科学上分析向日葵向日原因】
那么向日葵究竟向不向日?答案是:要看处于什么生长阶段。像工具书那样笼统地说向日葵“常朝着太阳”,是不准确的。
向日葵从发芽到花盘盛开之前这一段时间,的确是向日的,其叶子和花盘在白天追随太阳从东转向西,不过并非即时的跟随,植物学家测量过,其花盘的指向落后太阳大约12度,即48分钟。太阳下山后,向日葵的花盘又慢慢往回摆,在大约凌晨3点时,又朝向东方等待太阳升起。
在阳光的照射下,生长素在向日葵背光一面含量升高,刺激背光面细胞拉长,从而慢慢地向太阳转动。在太阳落山后,生长素重新分布,又使向日葵慢慢地转回起始位置,也就是东方。
但是,花盘一旦盛开后,就不再向日转动,而是固定朝向东方了。为什么最后要面向东方而不是其他方向或朝上呢?这可能是自然选择的结果,对向日葵的繁衍有益处。向日葵的花粉怕高温,如果温度高于30摄氏度,就会被灼伤,因此固定朝向东方,可以避免正午阳光的直射,减少辐射量。但是,花盘一大早就受阳光照射,却有助于烘干在夜晚时凝聚的露水,减少受霉菌侵袭的可能性,而且在寒冷的早晨,在阳光的照射下使向日葵的花盘成了温暖的小窝,能吸引昆虫在那里停留帮助传粉。
向日葵的花托部生长素背光分布,所以背光侧的茎生长较快,茎就会向光源处弯曲向日葵,由于其生长前期的幼株顶端及中期的幼嫩花盘会跟着太阳转动得非常明显而得名。人们都认为向日葵朝阳仅与光能照射有关,其实与重力作用也有着密切关系。
植物体内会产生一种奇妙的生长素,大多集中在生长旺盛的部位,趋向衰老的组织和器官中则含量较少。这种植物生长素有三个特点:第一,能够促进(抑制)细胞的生长,加速(减慢)细胞的分裂繁殖;第二,背光,遇到光能照射,就跑到背光的一面去;第三,向地,在重力作用下,从植物的上端向下端运输,从背地一侧往向地一侧运输,而不能倒转过来运输。
旭日东升,翠绿欲滴的向日葵东侧由于受到阳光照射,致使生长旺盛的顶端幼茎在其背光的西侧生长素分布较多。这侧的细胞纵向伸长生长得快,结果使得幼茎朝向生长慢的东侧弯曲,即向日葵顶端(花盘)早晨向东弯曲。随着太阳在空中的移动,改变光照方向,向日葵顶端(花盘)也不断改变方向,中午直立,下午向西弯曲,这些都表现为茎顶弯曲的向光性。
太阳落山后,大地一片漆黑,由光能照射引起植物体内生长素分布不均的现象消失。但由重力作用而引起植物体内生长素分布不均,则从次要地位上升为主导地位。在向西弯曲的向日葵幼茎下侧(向地侧)分布较多的生长素,致使该侧细胞分裂增多、伸长,向地这侧生长得快,使得茎朝向生长慢的背地的上侧弯曲,结果使昼间弯曲的植株挺直。夜间向日葵植株的挺直,是向日葵与其它植物一样对重力的自然反应——茎背地生长而处于直立状态。
随着向日葵花盘的增大,向日葵早晨向东弯曲、中午直立、下午向西弯曲、夜间直立的周而复始的转向逐渐停止,花盘除表现为越来越明显的垂头外,朝向不再改变。抑制转向的因素,一是不断增大的花盘重力;二是成熟期临近,分生区和伸长区的生长过程已基本结束。而已不再是幼嫩茎的组织趋向衰老,生长素含量较少,且木栓层形成。在转向受抑制之初,当夜间茎顶直立后,最先接受早晨来自东方阳光的照射,为此,绝大部分花盘朝向东,又由于受抑制也有一个过程,是缓慢进行的,所以还能够向南偏转一个约30-40度的角度,久之便以花盘朝东南方向固定下来。
【花卉品种】
向日葵有着独特的美国风情,正是这样。野生的向日葵可能来自于大草原地区而它的形象和美国的早期历史互相交织在一起。美洲印第安人把向日葵磨成面粉作为一种食物来源。现在有一系列新的无花粉品种,这样消除了花粉脱落的问题。在加利福尼亚,最广泛种植的品种是“阳光明亮”,它有着金黄色的花朵,褐黄色的芯和硬实的杆。其它无花粉品种包括:
“月光明亮”柠檬黄的花瓣和黑褐色的芯;
“阳光光束”金黄色的花,绿色的芯;
“充满阳光的柠檬”亮黄色的花,黑色的芯;
“充满阳光的橙子”金黄色的花,黑色的芯。
我们都认识的向日葵有一个敞开的花面,其直径平均有5至6英寸,而芯就占去了整个花的60%。现在有几种新的品种背离了这个标准。“Sonja”有着中等大小,4英寸的金橙色花,带着黑色的芯。它适合在小一点的花束中作为向日葵的点缀。
“玩具熊”是另一种新奇的品种。它是一种矮小的品种,有着丰富的橙色花瓣,使得它有一种有些模糊的外表。
黄色是向日葵的主导色,但新的一些品种增添了浓红色和褐黄色。
“Floristan”是一种双色的品种,有着青铜色和红色的花朵,黄色的花尖和黑色的芯。“Prado Red”有着黑色的芯,周围包围着的是略带红的褐黄色花朵,直径约4英寸。其它带有这种丰富的、秋季的颜色有“秋季美”和“落日的余辉”。
【传说故事】
传说一
关于向日葵,曾有一个凄美的希腊神话传说。克吕提厄(Clytie)是一位海洋女神。她曾是太阳神赫利俄斯(Helius)的情人,但后来赫利俄斯又爱上波斯(Persia)公主琉科托厄(Leucothoe)。妒火中烧的克吕提厄向波斯王俄耳卡摩斯(Orchamus)告发了琉科托厄与赫利俄斯的关系。俄耳卡摩斯下令将不贞的女儿活埋。赫利俄斯得知此事后,彻底断绝了与克吕提厄的来往。痴情的克吕提厄一连数天不吃不喝,凝望着赫利俄斯驾驶太阳车东升西落,日渐憔悴,最终化为一株向阳花(向日葵)。
传说二
向日葵--俄罗斯国花。前苏联人民热爱向日葵,并将它定为国花。现在俄罗斯把国花仍定为向日葵“更无柳絮因风起,惟有葵花向日倾”。向日葵,向往光明之花,合人带来美好希望之花,它全身是宝,把自己无私地奉献给人类。关于向日葵,历史上有一美妙传说。古代有一位农夫女儿名叫明姑,她憨厚老实,长得俊俏,却被后娘“女霸王”视为眼中钉,受到百般凌辱虐待。一次,因一件小事,顶撞了后娘一句,惹怒了后娘,使用皮鞭抽打她,可一下失手打到了前来劝解的亲生女儿身上,这时后娘又气又恨,夜里趁明姑熟睡之际挖掉了她的眼睛。明姑疼痛难忍,破门出逃,不久死去,死后在她坟上开着一盘鲜丽的黄花,终日面向阳光,它就是向日葵。表示明姑向往光明,厌恶黑暗之意,这传说激励人们痛恨暴、黑暗,追求光明。这向日葵便繁衍至今。
传说三
关于向日葵,曾有一个凄美的传说。 克丽泰是一位水泽仙女。一天,她在树林里遇见了正在狩猎的太阳神阿波罗,她深深为这位俊美的神所着迷,疯狂地爱上了他。可是,阿波罗连正眼也不瞧她一下就走了。克丽泰热切地盼望有一天阿波罗能对她说说话,但她却再也没有遇见过他。于是她只能每天注视着天空,看着阿波罗驾着金碧辉煌的日车划过天空。她目不转睛地注视着阿波罗的行程,直到他下山。每天每天,她就这样呆坐着,头发散乱,面容憔悴。一到日出,她便望向太阳。后来,众神怜悯她,把她变成一大朵金黄色的向日葵。她的脸儿变成了花盘,永远向着太阳,每日追随他,向他诉说她永远不变的恋情。

[flowers and plants variety]
The sunflower has the unique American character and style, is precisely this. The wild sunflower possibly comes from the prairie area, but its image and US's early history interweaves mutually in the same place. The Americas Indians grind to the sunflower the bread flour to take one kind of food origin. Now has a series of new non-pollen variety, like this eliminated the question which the pollen falls off. In California, the most widespread planter's variety is “the sunlight is bright”, it has the golden yellow flowers, the brown-yellow core and the sturdy and healthy pole.

Saran Wrap is evil. I have never placed it on my face until now. Boy that is a scary feeling to breathe in and instantly be suffocated. My heart started racing. My husband wouldn't let me do this shot alone he didn't want me to accidentally kill myself. I can see the headlines now. Mother of 3 killed doing a photo challenge on flickr.

INFORMATION ON SHRIMP
Shrimp are swimming, decapod crustaceans classified in the infraorder Caridea, found widely around the world in both fresh and salt water. Adult shrimp are filter feeding benthic animals living close to the bottom. They can live in schools and can swim rapidly backwards. Shrimp are an important food source for larger animals from fish to whales. They have a high resistance to toxins in polluted areas, and may contribute to high toxin levels in their predators. Together with prawns, shrimp are widely caught and farmed for human consumption.
Etymology: The term shrimp originated around the 14th century with the Middle English shrimpe, akin to the Middle Low German schrempen, and meaning to contract or wrinkle; and the Old Norse skorpna, meaning to shrivel up.
While in biological terms shrimps and prawns belong to a different suborders of Decapoda, they are very similar in appearance. In commercial farming and fisheries the terms shrimp and prawn are often used interchangeably. However, recent aquaculture literature increasingly uses the term "prawn" only for the freshwater forms of palaemonids and "shrimp" for the marine penaeids.
In European countries, particularly the United Kingdom, the word “prawn” is more common on menus than “shrimp”; while the opposite is the case in North America. The term “prawn” is also loosely used to describe any large shrimp, especially those that come 15 (or fewer) to the pound (such as “king prawns”, yet sometimes known as “jumbo shrimp”). Australia and other Commonwealth nations follow this British/European use to an even greater extent, using the word “prawn” almost exclusively. When Australian comedian Paul Hogan used the phrase, “I'll slip an extra shrimp on the barbie for you” in an American television advertisement, it was intended to make what he was saying easier for his American audience to understand, and was thus a deliberate distortion of what an Australian would typically say.
As with other seafood, shrimp is high in calcium, iodine and protein but low in food energy. A shrimp-based meal is also a significant source of cholesterol, from 122 mg to 251 mg per 100 g of shrimp, depending on the method of preparation. Shrimp consumption, however, is considered healthy for the circulatory system because the lack of significant levels of saturated fat in shrimp mean that the high cholesterol content in shrimp actually improves the ratio of LDL to HDL cholesterol and lowers triglycerides. Shrimp and other shellfish are among the most common food allergens. They are not kosher and thus are forbidden in Jewish cuisine.
