... but only can live in captivity. / ... pero sólo puede vivir en cautividad.
ENGLISH
Père David's Deer (Elaphurus davidianus) Milu in Chinese (麋鹿), is a species of deer known only in captivity. It prefers marshland, and is believed to be native to the subtropics. It grazes on a mixture of grass and water plants.
This species of deer was first made known to Western science in the 19th century, by Father Armand David, a French missionary working in China. At the time, the only surviving herd was in a preserve belonging to the Chinese emperor. The last herd of Père David's Deer that remained in China were eaten by Western and Japanese troops that were present at the time of the Boxer Rebellion[citation needed].
After Father David publicized their existence, a few animals were illegally transported to European countries for exhibitional purpose, and bred there. After the remaining population in China was extirpated, the remaining deer in Europe were gathered to England and bred for the preservation of the species. The current population stems from this herd. These deer are now found in zoos around the world. Two herds of Père David's Deer were reintroduced to Nan Haizi Milu Park, Beijing, and Dafeng Reserve, Jiangsu Province, China in the late 1980s. In spite of the small population size, the animals do not appear to suffer genetic problems from a genetic bottleneck, suggesting that a previous bottleneck had already removed harmful recessive alleles.

CASTELLANO
El ciervo del padre David (Elaphurus davidianus) es una especie de ciervo sumamente rara nativa de China, que corre un grave peligro de extinción y sólo existe en cautividad. También es la única de su género.
Como sus largas patas y anchas pezuñas indican, esta especie está adaptada a la vida en hábitats húmedos y pantanosos, sumergiéndose con frecuencia en el agua. Su dieta se compone de una mezcla de hierba y plantas acuáticas. No obstante, se ignora cuál era su distribución original en estado salvaje, pues cuando fue estudiado por primera vez en Occidente hacía años que se había extinguido en libertad (aunque algún reporte aislado habla de un ejemplar muerto en 1939 cerca del Mar Amarillo) y sólo quedaba una manada presente en los territorios de caza del emperador, cerca de Pekín. Es posible que su antigua distribución fuese pequeña, a lo largo de las desaparecidas zonas pantanosas del noroeste de China que fueron desecadas muy pronto para destinarlas al cultivo de arroz.
El ciervo del padre David es conocido en chino como sì bù xiàng (四不象), "Ninguno de los Cuatro". En la antigua China, este animal era tenido casi por un animal mítico compuesto por las partes fusionadas de otros cuatro: cuernos de ciervo, cuello de camello (cabeza de caballo según otras versiones), patas de vaca y cola de asno. Así es como fue descrito al misionero y naturalista francés Armand David durante su estancia en Pekín el 17 de mayo de 1865. Éste, interesado por el posible descubrimiento de una nueva especie ignorada por la ciencia, rogó a las autoridades chinas que le dejasen estudiarlo en los terrenos del emperador, pero éstas sólo le autorizaron a verlo una vez por encima de los muros externos. Posteriormente consiguió del emperador dos pieles con las que regresó a Europa, las cuales fueron estudiadas por Alphonse Milne-Edwards, director del Museo de Historia Natural de París que realizó una primera descripción de la especie. Tras largas discusiones diplomáticas, el emperador chino donó algunos ejemplares al embajador francés, mientras que la misma petición fue denegada a los representantes de Gran Bretaña y Alemania. Los ciervos conducidos a Francia se reprodujeron con facilidad en los parques zoológicos y pronto alcanzaron la cifra de 24 individuos.
En cuanto a la manada china, ésta quedó casi destruida durante las inundaciones de 1895, que destruyeron uno de los muros de la reserva imperial. Varios ejemplares murieron ahogados y otros más fueron cazados cuando escaparon a las zonas de los alrededores, hasta quedar menos de 30 individuos. Finalmente, durante la Rebelión de los Boxers, tropas europeas ocuparon los jardines de caza imperiales y acabaron con la manada con el fin de alimentar a los soldados.
Cuando este hecho fue conocido en Europa, se destinaron 18 ejemplares al parque privado de Woburn Abbey, propiedad del Duque de Bedford, donde fueron sometidos a un programa de reproducción intensivo y en las décadas sucesivas llegaron a los 90 individuos, aunque más de la mitad murieron durante la I Guerra Mundial. Por suerte, siguieron multiplicándose hasta llegar a los 300 individuos en 1946, a pesar de los bombardeos de la II Guerra Mundial. En 1956, 4 individuos fueron devueltos a China e internados en el zoo de Pekín. Cuarenta años después, otros 22 ejemplares fueron cedidos al gobierno chino y conducidos a la Reserva Dafeng, sita en los antiguos jardines imperiales, donde se ha formado una nueva manada. A pesar de que los 2000 ejemplares actuales en todo el mundo descienden de unas pocas cabezas de finales del siglo XIX, la especie parece llevar mejor los efectos de su baja diversidad genética que otras especies amenazadas.

This evening. I'm afraid you'll just have to imagine the sounds of the bell ringing practice.
On the topic of St Margaret's, Wikipedia has this to say:
The Anglican church of St. Margaret, Westminster is situated in the grounds of Westminster Abbey on Parliament Square, and is the parish church of the British Houses of Parliament in London. It is dedicated to Margaret of Antioch.
Originally founded in the 12th century by Benedictine monks, so that local people who lived in the area around the Abbey could worship separately at their own simpler parish church, and historically part of the hundred of Ossulstone in the county of Middlesex, St. Margaret's was rebuilt from 1486 to 1523. It became the parish of the Palace of Westminster in 1614, when the Puritans of the 17th century, unhappy with the highly liturgical Abbey, chose to hold Parliamentary services in the more "suitable" St. Margaret's, a practice that has since continued.
The North-West tower was rebuilt by John James from 1734 to 1738; at the same time, the whole structure was encased in Portland stone. Both the eastern and the western porch were added later by J. L. Pearson. The church's interior was greatly restored and altered to its current appearance by Sir George Gilbert Scott in 1877, although many of the Tudor features have remained.
Notable features include the Eastern window of 1509 of Flemish stained glass, created to remember the betrothal of Catherine of Aragon to Prince Arthur, elder brother of Henry VIII. Other windows commemorate William Caxton, Britain's first printer, who was buried at the church in 1491, Sir Walter Raleigh, executed in Old Palace Yard and then also buried in the church in 1618, and the poet John Milton, a parishioner of the church. The collector Henry Constantine Jennings is also buried there.
The church has been a common venue for "society" weddings, including those of Samuel Pepys and Sir Winston Churchill. The ensemble of St. Margaret's, the Palace of Westminster, and Westminster Abbey is a World Heritage Site.St. Margaret's has a lengthy musical tradition; Edward Purcell, son of Henry Purcell, was organist from 1726 to 1740.

This Veritas RS was purchased by the current owner in 2001 from the assets of its deceased owner Björn Övre. Mr. Övre was a collector of Veritas and early BMW cars who has purchased already in the 1950s and 1960s several Veritas cars in Belgium and imported them to Norway. He was indeed well known in Veritas circles and often a most welcomed guest at Veritas meetings at Meßkirch and at the Nürburgring. Sadly his intention to restore 61651 after retiring did not happen due to his untimely death.
After being in the now vendors ownership the car was completely restored by German specialist Georg Thiele and a photographic documentation of the restoration is available in the cars file. This restoration included restoring the original space frame, front and rear axles, wheels, braking system and fitting of new shock absorbers, rebuilt engine with new pistons, polished con rods, new oil and water pumps (by Feierabend) and a 5 - speed gearbox is fitted with the original gearbox supplied. Fresh paint and seats trimmed in the traditional style finish the car.
Today 61651 presents itself in superb race and road ready condition. This car campaigned in many classic races, rallies and classic outings all over Europe within the last 10 years while in the ownership of its current custodian, himself a well known pre - and post war BMW collector and is in mint condition throughout. Needless to say that it is highly collectible, very rare and simply beautiful, certainly not to be missed.
Der Veritas RS # 61651 stammt aus dem Nachlass des norwegischen Sammlers Björn Öwre und wurde in 2001 vom jetzigen Einlieferer vom Nachlass - Verwalter erworben. Öwre besaß seit den 1950/1960er Jahren mehrere Veritas, die er in Belgien erworben und nach Norwegen importiert hatte. Er war den Veritas Freunden seit Jahren bekannt und ein gern gesehener Gast an deren Treffen in Meßkirch und am Nürburgring.
Unter der Leitung von Herrn Georg Thiele und dank vorhandener Pläne wurde 61651 von Grund auf restauriert. Der originale Gitterrohrrahmen wurde auf einer Richtbank vermessen und ausgerichtet. Beide Achsen wurden komplett revidiert, ebenso Räder,Adapter, Bremsen sowie Bremsseile und Leitungen. Der Wagen erhielt neue Stoßdämpfer. Der Motor wurde mit neuen Hochleistungskolben versehen, die Pleuel wurden ausgerichtet und poliert. Öl - und Wasserpumpen lieferte die bekannte Fa. Feierabend. Der Zylinderkopf ( Bristol 100 ) bekam neue Solex 32PJCB - Vergaser ( NOS ). Ein leistungsfähiges Kühlsystem ist ebenso verbaut wie der für den Rennbetrieb vorgeschriebene Ölauffangbehälter. Zur Zeit ist ein VOLVO 5-Gang Getriebe verbaut, jedoch ist das Original - Getriebe vorhanden.
Der Gitterrohrrahmen wurde mit Aluminium Blechen beplankt, teilweise unter Verwendung alter Karosserie - Teile. Die Lackierung ( innen + aussen ) wurde ebenso wie die Sattlerarbeiten in der ,, alten Art ,, ausgeführt. Das Armaturenbrett und die Instrumente wurden nach Vorlagen und Muster neu angefertigt und entsperechen dem Original.
Tank und Batterie wurden aus Sicherheitsgründen - abweichend vom Original - im Heck des Wagens untergebracht. Eine Fotodokumentation ist vorhanden.
Well it's been forever since my last post. I haven't traveled anywhere new for landscapes and haven't felt very inspired for much else. Kids and school seem to make life feel very chaotic during the spring and I tend to retreat to my garden. Digging, weeding, watering, and watching the dirt for new life to sprout where I planted it seems to put things back in order.
Now that most of the hard work of the season is finished, my neglected camera called me to document a few of the fruits of my labor.

Amaranth (Similar to spinach)
Zucchini (Gold Rush and Black Beauty)
Yellow Squash (Straight and Crook necks)
Butternut Squash
Asparagus Beans (aka Yardlong Beans)
Snap Beans (green and yellow mix)
Lemon Cucumber
Bell Peppers (red and yellow)
Habanero Peppers
Serrano Peppers
Hungarian Yellow Wax Peppers
Moon and Stars Watermelon
Crimson Red Watermelon
Sugar Baby Watermelon
Crenshaw Melon
Canary Melon
Pumpkin (Sugar Pie)

Phew. That was a lot. Now if you'll excuse me, I must get back to staring at the dirt and waiting for little sprouts to pop out of the ground...
After new challenges this time of the year we get lots of mist here - This is my best effort from this difficult location to date, tide was dropping as i arrived :-) i struggle here the mist was just perfect a bit more light would have been more than welcome. Very little processing done to this image high ISO and Low Depth of field as the light was low !!

Melosira varians se desarrolla formando largos filamentos que parecen palidecer bajo el agua, no se trata de un alga enferma, su color verde apagado se transforma en dorado cuando se observa desde muy cerca, es una diatomea que se engarza en largas cadenas de microscópicas cuentas de collar.
Melosira varians se reproduce casi siempre partíéndose por la mitad. Sus células tienen forma de barril, barril cilíndrico delicado y especial que se abre por la mitad en dos partes iguales como si fuesen la base y la tapa de una caja cristalina. Cuando se parte en dos, la base fabrica una tapa y la tapa una base de tal forma que de un individuo surgen ahora dos.
Pero también Melosira tiene otro plan, un plan B, como ayer nos mostraba Oedogonium y el resultado de ese plan aparece hoy en la galería.
Generalmente y antes de la llegada del invierno un filamento de Melosira actuará como productor de gametos masculinos y dará lugar a células móviles como pequeños espermatozoides. Otro filamento diferente producirá en su interior gametos femeninos, dejando abierto un poro en la pared de cristal.
El final de la historia es fácil de adivinar, un espermatozoide se colará por la pequeña ventana y fecundará al óvulo, el resultado es la formación de una auxospora o auxozigoto, que será el germen de una nueva vida completamente renovada. Con la llegada de la primavera, con un poco más de luz y algo más de calor la auxospora germinará y dará lugar a un nuevo filamento.
Melosira es una diatomea filamentosa y común en cualquier tipo de agua, la de hoy ha venido de Navarcles en Barcelona y está aquí, mostrando su particular belleza gracias a África. La fotografía se ha tomado a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

Richard Irvine (10 April 1910 in Salt Lake City, Utah – 30 March 1976) was an American art director. He was nominated for an Academy Award in the category Best Art Direction for the film Sundown. He worked on 31 films between 1939 and 1953.
Irvine was then selected by Walt Disney to help construct Disneyland. He moved from 20th Century Fox to the Walt Disney Studio in 1952. Irvine became a senior figure at Walt Disney Imagineering. Until his retirement in 1973, Dick headed design and planning for all Disneyland attractions, ranging from the Haunted Mansion to Pirates of the Caribbean. Irvine became executive vice president and chief operations officer at Walt Disney Imagineering in 1967.
Irvine's Daughter Maggie followed in her father's footsteps and also joined WDI. His son married Kim Thomas (Now Kim Irvine, who currently is an Art Director at WDI) who is Imagineering legend and fellow colleague Leota Toombs's daughter. Irvine died in 1976 in Los Angeles, California after suffering with illness which prohibited him from ever seeing the complete Walt Disney World Resort which opened in 1971. In his honor one of the original Riverboats were named after him (See Richard F. Irvine Riverboat).

www.darckr.com/username.php?username=9099757@N05 --- Turkey, Antalya, Amarok Adventure World, Safari Tour ---- www.vianobilis.com/amarok-adventure-world-7e5 ---- Amarok Adventure World ---- Selge (griechisch Σέλγη) war eine antike Stadt in der kleinasiatischen Landschaft Pisidien beim heutigen Altınkayaköy (früher Zerk) (Türkei). Er lag 56 km nordwestlich von Side auf ca. 1000 m. ü. M. im oberen Tal des Eurymedon (heute: Köprüçay) am westlichen Ende des Taurusgebirges.Der Überlieferung nach soll Selge nach dem Krieg um Troja durch den Seher Kalchas gegründet und durch Griechen aus Sparta besiedelt worden sein. Auf Münzen ist der Ort seit dem 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. nachweisbar. Wirtschaftliche Grundlage war der Anbau von Wein und Oliven auf der umgebenden fruchtbaren Hochebene. Politisch bestanden zu Aspendos gute Beziehungen, ansonsten war die Stadt kriegerisch gegen ihre Nachbarn ausgerichtet. Als Alexander der Große durch Kleinasien zog, verbündete sich die Stadt mit ihm, um, allerdings erfolglos, die nahe Stadt Termessos zu belagern. Polybios beschreibt einen Krieg zwischen Selge und Pednelissos 220 v. Chr., in dem Pednellissos Achaios, den Statthalter von Side, zu Hilfe rief. 25 v. Chr. verlor Selge die Selbstständigkeit und wurde in die römische Provinz Galatien eingegliedert. Laut Strabon soll die Stadt zu dieser Zeit etwa 20.000 Einwohner gehabt haben. Seine größte Blüte erreichte Selge zur Zeit des römischen Kaiserreiches. Im Jahr 339 kam es zu einer erfolglosen Belagerung durch die Goten. In byzantinischer Zeit war Selge Bischofssitz. Die Stadt wurde später in seldschukischer Zeit aufgegeben.Es sind die Reste der Stadtmauer, eines Theaters, eines Stadions, der Agora mit Säulenhallen, eines Gymnasions und einer Basilika erhalten. Das Theater wurde im 3. Jahrhundert n. Chr. neu gebaut. Außerhalb der Stadtmauer lagen ein Aquädukt und einige Kammergräber. ---- Selge (in Greek Σελγη) was an important city in Pisidia, on the southern slope of Mount Taurus, modern Antalya Province, Turkey, at the part where the river Eurymedon River (Turkish: Köprüçay)forces its way through the mountains towards the south.
The town was believed to be a Greek colony, for Strabo[1] states that it was founded by Spartans, but adds the somewhat unintelligible remark that previously it had been founded by Calchas. The acropolis of Selge bore the name of Kesbedion.[2] The district in which the town was situated was extremely fertile, producing abundance of oil and wine, but the town itself was difficult of access, being surrounded by precipices and beds of torrents flowing towards the Eurymedon and Cestrus (today Aksu), and requiring bridges to make them passable. In consequence of its excellent laws and political constitution, Selge rose to the rank of the most powerful and populous city of Pisidia, and at one time was able to send an army of 20,000 men into the field. Owing to these circumstances, and the valour of its inhabitants, for which they were regarded as worthy kinsmen of the Spartans, the Selgians were never subject to any foreign power, but remained in the enjoyment of their own freedom and independence. When Alexander the Great passed through Pisidia (333 BC), Selge sent an embassy to him and gained his favour and friendship.[3] At that time they were at war with Termessos.
At the period when Achaeus had made himself master of Western Asia, Selge were at war with Pednelissus, which was besieged by them; and Achaeus, on the invitation of Pednelissus, sent a large force against Selge (218 BC). After a long and vigorous siege, the Selgians, being betrayed and despairing of resisting Achaeus any longer, sent deputies to sue for peace, which was granted to them on the following terms: they agreed to pay immediately 400 talents, to restore the prisoners of Pednelissus, and after a time to pay 300 talents in addition.[4] We now have for a long time no particulars about the history of Selge; in the 5th century AD Zosimus[5] calls it indeed a little town, but it was still strong enough to repel a body of Goths. It is strange that Pliny does not notice Selge, for we know from its coins that it was still a flourishing town in the time of Hadrian; and it is also mentioned in Ptolemy[6] and Hierocles. Independently of wine and oil, the country about Selge was rich in timber, and a variety of trees, among which the storax was much valued from its yielding a strong perfume. Selge was also celebrated for an ointment prepared from the iris root.[7]
The remains of the city consist mainly of parts of the encircling wall and of the acropolis. A few traces have survived of the gymnasium, the stoa, the stadium and the basilica. There are also the outlines of two temples, but the best conserved monument is the theater, restored in the 3rd century AD.
Halfway on the road to Selge from the Pamphylian coastal plain, a well-preserved Roman Bridge crosses the deep Eurymedon valley

Poroiba - Akau - Wigschool - Pruikenschool
The wigmen of the Huli people aren't like Western toupee manufacturers. They are wizards who only work with people who have fine heads of hair.
What a traditional wigman does is use ancient magic to make hair grow faster than normal so it can be cut off and turned into a wig. Evidently, magic - like hair restorer - doesn't work if the hair is long gone.
This singular way of making hairpieces is found in the Tari Valley, 2000m up in the Highlands of PNG, an area just starting to make the transition from the old ways of centuries past to the new ideas which have begun to flow from the outside world.
When I explored the villages and roadside markets around the lodge, most of the men I met were wearing caps, but a good number still went about their daily business dressed in the traditional wigs.
In fact many had not one but two wigs - a plain day wig shaped like an upturned bowl, and an ornate ceremonial wig decorated with bird feathers - possession of which, like ownership of many pigs or having more than one wife, is a sign of wealth and status.
As a result the wigmen are still much in demand. And, this being a place where magic is taken very seriously, they are deeply respected. The sign welcoming visitors to Tari Airport highlights the fact that the area is "Home to the Huli wigman."

The Huli are an indigenous people that live in the Southern Highlands of Papua New Guinea. They number over 65,000 and have been living in the area for at least 600 years. They speak Huli, Tok Pisin, and English.

We bezoeken de pruikenschool van de Huli in het heel afgelegen en geïsoleerd dorpje Poroiba.
Dit is een 'school' met leerlingen en leraren dus. Eerst moeten de jongens toegelaten worden. De jongens moeten bevestigen dat ze nog geen sex gehad hebben met het andere geslacht. Dan worden ze ingewijd in de rituelen om het haar te laten groeien. Ten vroegste na 9 maand intens 'voeden' van de haren met gezang en hoofd besproeien, kan de leeraar oordelen of het haar klaar is voor een pruik. Dan volgt een eerste knipping. Genoeg haar dan voor een gewone pruik. Een volledige cyclus is 18 maand. De jongens blijven al die maanden ter plaatse en ze moeten maagd blijven. Sommige laten de haren groeien zo dat ze 2 pruiken hebben. Genoeg voor een ceremoniële pruik. Het is een statuussymbool.

This shot is actually the opposite of most of my day. Most of my day was dirty, dusty, and unpleasant. Victoria went to the allergy doctor a couple weeks back and he said most of her allergies were due to dust, and that we needed to make "environmental" changes to alleviate that. The first of those is to clean everything and de-dust the apartment. Along those lines, I spent over an hour cleaning one set of blinds today. (Skin dry, lungs hurt, bleh. But my body is much better equipped to deal with it than hers.)
After 6 hours of this we were pretty drained. We got out of the apartment to run some errands which took us down into La Jolla proper. By the time we were done it was coming right up on 7 (sunset should be around 7:30 this time of year), so I suggested we head down to La Jolla Shores beach to catch the sunset at get a pic-of-the-day. By the time we got there the temperature had dropped enough that neither of us really felt like going out on the sand (much less touching the water), so I spent 5 minutes on the sidewalk. Could have (should have?) quit early though: I knew this was the one as soon as I had it in the viewfinder. I love that feeling.
For anyone that hasn't chimed in yet: I'd love your help in picking out my submissions for the county fair (I probably need to have them picked by the end of the week). Info is here.
I hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine might have had some annoying bits, but especially because I got some good shots this weekend, I'm feeling pretty good.
By December 1863, much of Louisiana was occupied by the Union army. Ninety-five schools serving over 9,500 students--including almost half of the black children in Louisiana--were running under its auspices. But keeping these schools up and running would require ongoing financial support.
Toward this end, the National Freedman's Association, in collaboration with the American Missionary Association and interested officers of the Union Army, launched a new propaganda campaign.
Five children and three adults, all former slaves from New Orleans, were sent to the North on a publicity tour. A drawing of them was printed in the 30 January 1864 issue of the popular Harper's Weekly, bearing the intriguing caption: "EMANCIPATED SLAVES, WHITE AND COLORED." The authors of this campaign were pursuing a surprising, and quite effective, strategy for arousing sympathy for blacks--they portrayed them as white.
Of the eight slaves sent north from New Orleans, four children--Charley, Augusta, Rebecca, and Rosina (Rosa)--looked white. As the article accompanying the group portrait in Harper's Weekly affirmed, they were "perfectly white;" "very fair;" "of unmixed white race". Their light complexions contrasted sharply with those of the three adults, Wilson, Mary, and Robert; and that of the fifth child, Isaac--"a black boy of eight years; but none the less intelligent than his whiter companions".
Accompanied on their tour by Col. George Hanks of the Corps d'Afrique (the 18th Infantry, a corps of colored soldiers), the group posed for photographs in New York and Philadelphia.
The portraits were produced in the format of cartes de visite (CDVs), albumen prints the size of a calling card, and sold for 25 cents each. The proceeds of the sale were directed to Maj. Gen. Nathaniel P. Banks in Louisiana, where the money would be "devoted to the education of colored people," as the verso of each photograph explains.
Of the "Emancipated Slaves from New Orleans" series, at least 22 different prints remain in existence today. The bulk were produced by New York photographers Charles Paxson, and Myron H. Kimball, who took the initial group portrait later reproduced as a woodcut in Harper's Weekly.
In "Visualizing the Color Line," Carol Goodman notes that much of the power of the photographs stemmed from allusions to physical abuse. When paired with a related article in the same issue of Harper's Weekly, the allusions in the portrait of white slaves to the white masters' sexual exploitation of their female slaves is clear. The most grievous sin of slavery, the editor of Harper's Weekly contends, is that it permits slaveholding "'gentlemen' [to] seduce the most friendless and defenseless of women". Moreover, two of the four black slaves included in the publicity tour bear the marks of abuse on their skin--Wilson has a brand upon his forehead; Mary, as she is described in Harper's Weekly, has more than 50 rawhide-scars on her arm and back.

UN Women Fiji Multi-Country Office (MCO) was proud to participate in the Pacific Humanitarian Partnership (PHP) Meeting held 2-3 October in Suva, Fiji, which brought together the humanitarian community – including government, UN agencies, civil society organisations, social movements and international and national non-government organisations (INGOs and NGOs) – to share best practices and strengthen localisation of preparedness and response activities.
UN Women Fiji MCO Representative Aleta Miller spoke at the meeting’s opening session. UN Women also facilitated a joint session with Diverse Voices for Action and Equality (DIVA for Equality) to promote the visibility of gender and protection actors in humanitarian response – those who may not always be part of formal humanitarian structures but do vital work in their communities. Experiences were shared by national civil society members from across the Pacific region including FemLINKPacific/Transcend Oceania, Pacific Rainbows Advocacy Network (PRAN), Fiji Disabled Peoples Federation (FDPF), Women United Together Marshall Islands (WUTMI) and DIVA for Equality.

ENGLISH
The baroque bell tower of Vilanova began to construct in 1670 and it was finished in 1705. It is a work of pricked stone, octogonal form, according to planes of a Carmelite, Fray Josep of the Concepció, known by the Tracista by its ability to project. One of its more singular characteristics is than it is not united to the nave of the church.
The overall height, with Angel, is 54 meters. In its interior there is a spiral staircase with 167 steps, and above is the famous Angel. This one was of copper and black bitumened (they called the black angel), measured 2.70m. and it was constructed according to model of the Barcelonian sculptor Miquel Llavina. It turned on its foot and it indicated the wind direction. In 1883 it had to be recovered since it was very damaged by storms and the numerous firings of the militians of the Tumults of Barcelona of 1835 that proved aim.
In 1892 the bell was put, of 1760 kg, that was baptized like Josepa, although the town called Lluca for being donated by Josep Lluc i Torrens. In 1936 the Angel and the bells were fused to make military material. In 1996 a new Angel was placed replacing the original one of 1705, and in August of the 2006 the complete restoration of the bell tower was inaugurated.
One comments that the bell tower is slightly inclined, and the popular legend account that this is the reason because who constructed it threw to the emptiness from the top of the bell tower, but there is no written text that corroborates it.

El campanario barroco de Vilanova se empezó a construir en 1670 y se terminó en 1705. Es una obra de piedra picada, de forma octogonal, según planos de un carmelita descalzo, Fray Josep de la Concepció, conocido por el Tracista por su habilidad para proyectar. Una de sus características más singulares es que no está unido a la nave de la iglesia.
La altura total, con Ángel y todo, es de 54 metros. En su interior hay una escalera de caracol de 167 peldaños, y arriba del todo está el famoso Ángel. Éste era de cobre embetunado de negro (le llamaban el ángel negro), medía 2,70m. y fue construido según modelo del escultor barcelonés Miquel Llavina. Giraba sobre su pie y señalaba la dirección del viento. En 1883 se tuvo que restaurar ya que estaba muy dañado por las tormentas y por los numerosos disparos de los milicianos de las Bullangas de Barcelona de 1835 que probaban puntería.
En 1892 se puso la campana, de 1760 kg., que se bautizó como Josepa, aunque el pueblo la llamaba Lluca por haber sido donada por Josep Lluc i Torrens. En 1936 se fundieron el Ángel y las campanas para hacer material de guerra. En 1996 se colocó un nuevo Ángel sustituyendo al original de 1705, y en agosto del 2006 se inauguró la restauración completa del campanario.
Se comenta que el campanario está ligeramente inclinado, y por ello la leyenda popular cuenta que quien lo construyó se arrojó al vacío desde lo alto del campanario, pero no hay ningún texto escrito que lo corrobore.

This is by far my worst work... thanks to my shaky hands... but the best view thus far from Langkawi.
I was seated in my hall trying to fix my SD Card coz the lock slider came off. I looked out my balcony and saw some very nice crimson hues... my balcony faces South so I knew I was at the wrong place... I shouldn't be at home but at the seaside... I should have stayed on at the other end of the island as I was there this afternoon... but this afternoon it was threatening to rain again so I came home.
Anyway, I went to my balcony to see if I could get a clear shot. No luck.
I went downstairs to the first floor, at the poolside and managed a couple of shots. But I was not happy as it looked so beautiful. I thought for a while.
Then I went up to the10th floor. Still no shot.
Very unhappy now... I went to the rooftop. There was a window... but taking a shot from here I would get the penthouse's roof in the frame. Grrrr...
Aha... then I saw the water tank. Should I? I am acrophobic. Being on the roof in itself took a lot of courage. I gathered all my courage and started climbing the metal steps/ladder. Camera around my neck... clinging onto the railings for dear life. When I got to the top... I went.... WOW!!! Legs shaking, hands trembling... I started snapping. Left hand clinging on to dear life... right hand trembling away and snapping away. You can see my hands were shaking away if you saw the picture large. No matter how I changed the ISO or shutter speed it didn't help. Maybe next time I will take my 50mm up instead... yes, there will be a next time. I'll find a way.
So... here you go... my shaky hands, 5 shot panorama.

Enjaulada en su fino palacio de cristal, la ameba sol Penardiophrys asoma sus más de veinte brazos de hilo desde sus ventanas de encaje, para palpar el agua y recoger de ella, con delicadeza, su cosecha de alimentos.
Nadie ha castigado a Penardiophrys a vivir en una jaula tan abierta, que es como un traje de encajes amplios, ventanales circulares que se asoman a la vida desde las profundidades, a fin de cuentas un vestido de princesa tejido con proteínas, quizá no tan hermoso como el de su maravillosa prima Clathrulina, pero sí exclusivo único y especial como ella.
El delicado cuerpo de Penardiophrys posiblemente se dispersaría como la bruma al primer golpe de corriente si su casa jaula no le diese esa protección, y por ello, sus amplias ventanas sostienen sus finos brazos y un largo cabo, sujeta su esfera de palacio anclándolo a los fondos para que no se pierda en el infinito.
Toda esta arquitectura esférica de óvalos soldados que es jaula, es al mismo tiempo vestido holgado y precioso en el que el delicado cuerpo estrellado de Penardiophrys reticulata se refugia. Podrá salir de él en cualquier momento y lo hará para reproducirse, dividiendo su cuerpo blando como lo hacen otras amebas o fabricando en un misterioso proceso células flageladas que en un proceso de mágica metamorfosis formaran de nuevo estas esferas huecas y vivas.
Penardiophrys reticulata vive anclada a los fondos como un globo sujeto por un hilo a la mano de un niño, entre grumos de sedimento, que mullidos la protegen.
Cada una de las ventanas del caparazón de Penardiophrys está enmarcada por unos nervios finos y apenas visibles que forman una estructura de red con facetas similares; todas ellas presentan un fino orificio central a través del que asoman los finísimos pseudópodos (axiopodios) que pueden alcanzar hasta 3 veces el diámetro del caparazón. subcentrally. El núcleo en esta especie está situado casi en posición central y se ve con dificultad.
La especie que mostramos hoy fue descubierta y descrita por Penard en 1904 bajo el nombre de Hedriocystis reticulata . Pero tras la revisión realizada por Mikrjukov en el año 2000, esta especie pasó a formar parte del nuevo género Penardiophrys denominado así en honor a Penard, bajo el nombre de Penardiophrys reticulata .
Esta interesantísima y rara ameba se ha encontrado en escasas ocasiones, sobre vegetación de esfagnos y en el fondo de zonas pantanosas y ésta, desde el Lago de Sanabria es la primera referencia que se hace de ella en territorio Ibérico.
La fotografía de hoy, realizada a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia, se ha tomado sobre una muestra recolectada a cinco metros de profundidad, el 30 de agosto de 2015, por Laura, Mª José y Tomás en las inmediaciones de la Isla de Moras en el Lago de Sanabria (Zamora), desde el catamarán Helios Sanabria el primer catamarán construido en el Planeta propulsado por energía eólica y solar.

La figura verde de Closterium siempre marca su sonrisa en el agua, sonrisa flotante y abierta la de este grupo de algas de simetría perfecta que son los désmidos y que arropa tanto el brillo de la luna como los colores de las estrellas.
Hay casi tantas especies de Closterium -casi doscientas- como clases de sonrisa y todas ellas con infinitos matices, sonrisas nerviosas, sonrisas amplias, sonrisas rebosantes de franqueza, sonrisas de amor, sonrisas contagiosas, sonrisas de ternura…todo sonrisas.
La sonrisa de Closterium intermedium es una sonrisa equilibrada, ni apagada ni excesiva, se insinúa en un arco suave que remata en dos hoyuelos y está pintada del frescor verde de la vida.
Closterium striolatum es una especie de mediano tamaño, de curvatura suave, con pared celular marcadamente estriada y bordes truncados de manera abrupta. En cada una de las dos mitades y a ambos lados del núcleo se disponen los cloroplastos formados por cerca de una docena de laminillas repartidas radialmente a partir del eje longitudinal. De extremo a extremo unos oscuros lunares de pirenoides -sustancias de reserva- salpican su interior.
Los hoyuelos pálidos de los extremos de Closterium guardan dentro, como en muchos otros désmidos, minúsculos cristales de sulfato cálcico o de bario que brillan agitados en un baile sin fin ¿harán cosquillas a Closterium para que se curve en una sonrisa?
Closterium striolatum es uno de los désmidos más frecuentes en las aguas ácidas, con facilidad puede ser confundido con Closterium inetermedium no tan curvado ni hinchado en la porción central y de dorso algo cóncavo. El de hoy procede de también de un arroyo de aguas limpias y frescas situado en las inmediaciones de Mahíde en las estribaciones de la zamorana Sierra de la Culebra y ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos con la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

Se asoman a su balcón desde su funda transparente que es una vaina que además de dar protección al cuerpo de estos ciliados también les da el nombre. Se trata de Vaginicola, ciliado alargado en forma de trompeta , que en su cabeza se abre en corona como una flor.
Los cilios de Vaginicola ruedan en la corona fabricando pequeños remolinos en los que quedan atrapadas pequeñas partículas y algunos organismos diminutos que después este ciliado selecciona para él o para devolverles la libertad en el agua.
A Vaginicola parece que no le gusta vivir solo, por eso, casi siempre se asoma a su balcón en compañía, quizá estos compañeros hablen del tiempo, de la vida, o de los lunares que adornan su interior. Estos pequeños lunares son también amigos y hacen con Vaginicola una simbiosis ejemplar y que con frecuencia se da también con otros protozoos, son así, cientos más dos.
Vaginicola cuida con mimo su colección de lunares verdes que son algas del género Chlorella y estas pequeñas algas verdes en muestra de agradecimiento, corresponden con Vaginicola regalándole las golosinas de los azúcares y proteínas que ellas fabrican, pero estas golosinas no son un capricho, se han vuelto ya imprescindibles y sellan esta relación de amistad.
Vaginicola recuerda mucho a Cothurnia y a Thuricola por su apariencia, pero Vaginicola vive dentro de una funda que se muestra como un vaso, abierto y sin protección, mientras que sus otros compañeros, más precavidos o más frioleros, cierran la entrada de la vaina que los protege con una puerta que se siempre hacia afuera, de este modo ellos pueden salir, pero nadie puede entrar.
Dos amigos, probablemente hermanos, se asoman al balcón y muestran alegres su cuerpo de lunares verdes. No son dos amigos en realidad, son cientos más dos en un incondicional vínculo de amistad y proceden de la balsa de Ajamil en La Rioja de donde procede la muestra que ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia .

ENGLISH
The White-fronted Amazon, Amazona albifrons also known as White-fronted Parrot, or adopted slang term Spectacled Amazon Parrot is a Central American species of parrot. Not to be confused with the Red-spectacled Amazon Parrot.
The White-fronted Amazon is relatively small when compared to other Amazons. At maturity this species will grow to a typical length of only nine to ten inches. This species is named for the bright white patch of feathers which is seen on their foreheads, although the amount of white varies from individual to individual. They have green plumage throughout, red coloring around their eyes (in some individuals almost like a mask) and blue coloring on their outspread wings and behind the patch of white on their foreheads. Unlike other amazon species, males and females can be distinguished by appearance (sexual dimorphism): males have bright red feathers on their shoulders (alula), while females have green shoulders. The species is divided into three subspecies, differentiated by slight colour differences: the White-fronted Amazon (A. a. albifrons), the Lesser White-fronted Amazon (A. a. nana) and the Sonora White-fronted Amazon (A. a. saltuensis). Like other large parrots, the White-fronted Parrot has a long life span, usually around 40 years when properly cared for. They also can imitate a range from 30 to 40 different sounds.

CASTELLANO
El loro frente blanca, frentiblanco, amazona frente blanca o cotorra (Amazona albifrons) es una especie de loro endémico de América Central.
A pesar de que el loro frente blanca tiene un tamaño promedio cuando se le compara al resto de los loros, es relativamente más pequeño cuando se le compara a otros pertenecientes al género Amazona. Esta especie se desarrolla hasta alcanzar, en la madurez, una talla típica de solo 22 a 25 cm. Recibe su nombre por la mancha blanca brillante que se le observa en la frente, a pesar de que la cantidad de blanco varía de un individuo a otro. Tienen plumaje verde en todo el cuerpo, con un anillo rojo alrededor de los ojos (en algunos individuos forma casi una “máscara”) y plumas azules visibles al desplegar las alas y detrás de la mancha blanca de la frente.
A diferencia de otras especies de amazonas, existe dimorfismo sexual (machos y hembras pueden ser diferenciados a simple vista): Los machos presentan plumas color rojo brillante en la alula, mientras que las hembras no la poseen o se distingue muy poco. Esta especie se divide en tres subespecies diferenciadas por cambios menores de color: el loro frente blanca (A. a. albifrons), El loro frente blanca menor (A. a. nana) y el loro frente blanca de Sonora (A. a. saltuensis). Como la mayoría de los loros mayores, el loro frente blanca tiene un período de vida bastante largo, comúnmente alrededor de 50 años o mas.

Thought of doing some different processing with the milk-drop-in-coffee.
You can see the green ting which is due the the green b/g from which the light was bounced.
I opened this one in photomatrix and did some tone mapping which gave me a surprisingly "metallic" look.. any comments?

Artículo LA BIODIVERSIDAD OCULTA
Trithigmostoma algivora no puede esconder lo que dice la parte sencilla de su nombre, que se alimenta de algas, y que de un intenso color verde tiñen su interior.
Trithigmostoma es un ciliado pequeño y nervioso, muy parecido a Chilodonella, género del que fue hermano y del que se diferencia por poseer una hilera de cilios en la parte dorsal delanatera. Trithigmostoma tiene forma ovada y una especie de pico redondeado en su parte anterior y en cuya proximidad se abre una pequeña boca en forma de ojal que se prolonga en una corta faringe reforzada por unos bastoncillos similares a los de Nassula.
.
Se mueve deslizándose y dando giros continuos, succionando el agua en la que pudieran estar las algas de las que se alimenta y parece que lo hace con éxito a la vista de lo que se ve que contiene su interior.
Trithigmostoma algivora vive en aguas cargadas de materia orgánica y procede de unas muestras de agua recogidas en la Laguna Grande, junto a la localidad zamorana de Ricobayo y ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

The name 'Clingendael' means 'valley in the dunes'. The original part of the Clingendael building was built between 1643 and 1660 for Philip Doublet, whose family had moved to The Hague from the south of the Netherlands. Several of the Doublets held the office of Treasurer General in the Republic of the Seven United Provinces.
Philip's wife was the sister of the celebrated poet and statesman, Constantijn Huygens, and Philip’s son married one of Huygens’ daughters, Suzanna. The architecture of the original part of Clingendael shares some of the features of the Huygens’s country house in Voorburg, Hofwijck.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, Clingendael belonged to the Van Brienens, a prominent family of merchants and bankers. During the period of French rule in the Netherlands, Willem Joseph van Brienen was appointed Mayor of Amsterdam and elevated by Napoleon to 'Baron de l’Empire'.
The last of the Van Brienens in the male line, Arnout, built a racecourse for his guests at Clingendael; it has since been moved to nearby Duindigt. Arnout’s unmarried daughter Marguérite, known as Lady Daisy, laid out Clingendael’s fine Japanese garden.
During the Second World War, the house was occupied by the Nazi Reich’s Commissioner for the Occupied Netherlands, Arthur Seyss-Inquart, and his family.
In 1954, Clingendael became the property of the municipality of The Hague, which it remains today. Since 1983, the Clingendael Institute (the Netherlands Institute of International Relations) has been located in Huys Clingendael.
I went sightseeing to the Farallon Islands last weekend before the storm. It was my first time out there and the highlight was probably seeing 20 to 30 humpback whales surface feeding over Fanny Shoals.
The Farallon Islands have a long history of bird egg harvesting, fur seal harvesting, whaling, and fishing. It was also the site of nuclear waste disposal during the first 30 years of the cold war. The aircraft carrier Independence, a target ship for two atmospheric nuclear tests, was purposefully scuttled to the west of the Islands.
We caught rockfish, lingcod, and sanddabs. It wasn't a great fishing day, but as the others sent me home with some of their catch I probably won't be buying fish for a month or so.
Sebastes species are slow growing territorial predators with venomous spines in their dorsal and anal fins. Several species are known to live 100 to 200 years. The group is commonly sold as "red snapper" in fish markets. There are about 130 species in the genus and many species have multiple color morphs -- making field identification difficult for sport and commercial fishermen. Several (if not all) Sebastes species are endangered by overfishing. Catch and release of non-target species is complicated by the expansion of air in the internal organs of Sebastes during retrieval. While they appear paralyzed or dead at the surface, Sebastes caught in less than 200 feet water can be returned to successfully to depth using special techniques involving weights and reverse barbless hooks or open bottom containers. Marine sanctuaries off the California coast will soon protect limited geographical sites from all fishing.
Next time I want to send a camera down there.

Robert Kenner, the director of Food, Inc., has said that his film is not just about food.
It's also about threats to the First Amendment and the desire of some powerful corporations to suppress the truth.
Both of us, while investigating America's industrial food system, were struck by the corrputing influence of centralized power. Whenever power is concentrated and unaccountable - whether it's corporate power, governmental power, or religious power - it inevitably leads to abuses. Human beings are imperfect, and you need a system of checks and balances to keep them in line, to encourage good behavior. You need competing centers of power. That's not a new idea. That's an old-fashioned American idea. You can thank James Madison and the other founding fathers for coming up with it.
. . . The food industry is, by far, the most important industry in every society. Without it, you can't have any other industry. . . . You're talking about an industry whose business practices help determine the health of the customers who eat its products, the health of the workers who make its products, the health of the environment, animal welfare, and so much more.
. . . One of the major themes of Fast Food Nation and Food, Inc. is the power of corportations to influence government policy. Again and again, we see these companies seeking deregulation - and government subsidies.
They hate government regulations that protect workers and consumers, but love to receive taxpayer money.
That theme has implications far beyond the food industry.
The same kind of short-sighted greed that has threatened food safety and worker safety for years now threatens the entire economy of the United States. . . . Both were driven by the same mindset.
"...on the floor of his room."
Besides attending a class today and writing reports, I spent the afternoon at a friend's house. We talked a lot and she put on some Eddie Izzard. It was fun. :)
I've been tagged. By Trixiepix. And just when I thought I'd wrap up the day and lay my thoughts to sleep... :)
Here we go:
#01 I (used to) change interests on a daily basis, so keeping up with 365 is sometimes a real pain the butt, but I'm determined to stick to, to prove myself I can go through with something - not just drop the idea before I've REALLY given it a go.
#02 I'm a pervert, I'm a poet, I'm a romantic soul.
I really like weird (and I do mean weird, Necrophilia variations is right up my alley) books and movies and music.
#03 When going out for a drink, I usually drink coffee, or during the winter, black tea, vanilla flavoured.
#04 I adore chocolate. The kind with 50 or more percent of cocoa. The bitterness tastes so sweet to me. :) Also, I like chocolate with chili peppers.
#05 Like Trixiepics, I get a kick out of organizing things. On my computer. Into folders and zip files and partitions and so on and so forth...
#06 I like to look at people. Not in a voyeur kind of way, I just like to look at people when I walk past them, to see their faces, to see what they're wearing, how fast they are walking. It interests me. :)
#07 I (used to) usually give up, if the results were not perfect the first time. I had to learn to deal with mistakes.
#08 REMOVED
#09 The first time I did a snow angel was a couple of days ago.
#10 I adore the feeling of fresh, clean hands. I just love it. It feels wonderful. :)
#11 My memory is like swiss cheese, but without the cheese. This is one of the reasons I began 365. To have something to remember ALL of the days by.
#12 I'd like to improve my photos, but lately I don't take enough time to produce results I'd be really proud of. Shame on me.
#13 Lately most of what I wear is black. Last year I was sort of getting into really coloured stuff, but this year I mostly go for black. (Except this one outfit I wear at home - yellow sweatshirt and red pants.)
#14 I thought for sure I wouldn't get tagged. :)
#15 I really like the 80's Yugoslavian punk/new wave scene. There's something about that era that I find so alluring I can't even say. The music, the rebel attitude. (Those days, there actually was something to rebel about. Nowadays, you can do almost whatever you like, so being a rebel these days is pretty much pointless.)
#16 I don't like sports. I don't like to do them. I don't like to watch. I was always absolutely horrible at team sports. The only exception is running. I like that, because sometimes that's when I'm most alone and have all my thoughts to myself.
Done! Woo-hoo! :)
That was a lot of text. Probably the longest description I'll ever write. :)
This was day fifty-seven.
Vegan Summer Potato Salad
▶ Adapted from:
Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home
Authors: Julia Child, Jacques Pepin
Hardcover: 448 pages
Publisher: Alfred A. Knopf; 1st edition (September 14, 1999);
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0375404317
ISBN-13: 978-0375404313
***************
▶ RECIPE
● INGREDIENTS
☞ 2 pounds large Yukon Gold potatoes
☞ 2 TBSP malt vinegar
☞ 1/3 cup vegetable stock or potato-cooking water
☞ 1 cup vegan mayonnaise (such as non-soy Just Mayo)
● EXTRAS
☞ 2/3 cup finely chopped onion
☞ 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
☞ 3 small radishes, roughly chopped
☞ 3 TBSP finely chopped dill pickle
☞ 3 TBSP chopped fresh scallions
☞ 1 TBSP capers
☞ 1 tsp ground white pepper
☞ 1 tsp ground mustard
☞ 1 tsp turmeric
☞ 1 dash Liquid Smoke
☞ 1 dash smoked paprika
☞ Kosher salt, to taste
● GARNISH
☞ Crisp whole red-leaf lettuce leaves
☞ Thinly sliced radishes
☞ Chopped scallion greens
● PROCEDURE
1) Peel the potatoes and slice each one lengthwise in half, or in quarters if very large; then cut crosswise into half-round or quarter-round slices, about 1/2 inch thick.
2) Put the slices in a saucepan with water just to cover and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt per quart of water. Bring water to a boil, and reduce to a simmer, uncovered. Cook the potatoes for 5 to 6 minutes, checking with a fork for cooked through, but still firm. Check frequently. DO NOT OVERCOOK.
3) Immediately remove from heat and drain into a colander, but save a cup of the cooking liquid for dressing the potatoes.
4) Add the malt vinegar to 1/3 cup of vegetable stock or the reserved potato water. Transfer the potatoes to a mixing bowl. Drizzle the vinegar/stock over the potato pieces, turning them gently to distribute evenly. Let sit 10 minutes to absorb the liquid.
5) Add potatoes to colander. Strain out any remaining liquid.
6) Return to mixing bowl. Add the onion, celery, pickle, scallions (reserving some for the garnish), capers, Liquid Smoke, and spices (minus the paprika and salt). Toss. Top with 2/3 cup of mayonnaise and, with a large rubber spatula, gently fold everything together until well blended. Taste the salad and add more salt, pepper, mayonnaise, or vinegar/stock as needed.
7) Cover the salad and set aside in the refrigerator for at least an hour or so before serving. If it is refrigerated longer, let it come back to room temperature before serving.
8) To serve, line a bowl or a platter with red-leaf lettuce, and mound the salad on top. Decorate at the last moment with radish slices, chopped scallion greens, and a couple of dashes of smoked paprika.

Primo becchino S'ha da dare cristiana sepoltura ad una che ha voluto anticiparsi l'ora della salvezza?
Secondo becchino Sì, ti dico; perciò prepara subito la fossa. Il magistrato ha esaminato il caso ed ha deciso che sia da concedersi cristiana sepoltura.
Primo becchino Com'è possibile? Ammenoché non si sia annegata per difendersi.
Secondo becchino Infatti, è stato accertato così.
Primo becchino Già, dev'essere stato "se offendendo",
non altrimenti. Perché il punto è questo:se io annego di mia volontà, questo è un atto, ed un atto ha tre momenti: agire, fare, consumare; argal lei s'è annegata di sua volontà.
Secondo becchino Ma no, senti, mio bravo zappatore...
Primo becchino Permetti: qui c'è l'acqua, e qui c'è l'uomo. Bene. Se ora l'uomo va nell'acqua e, volente o nolente, ci si annega, è stato lui ad andarci... sta' attento; se invece è l'acqua ad andare dall'uomo, e lo annega, non è lui che s'annega.
Argal la propria vita non accorcia chi della propria morte non ha colpa.
Secondo becchino Così è la legge?
Primo becchino Sì, perdio, così; così almeno l'ha interpretata il giudice.
Secondo becchino Bah, devo dirti come me la sento? Non fosse stata costei nobildonna sarebbe stata seppellita fuori da cristian cimitero.
Primo becchino Ah, l'hai capita? E' una grande ingiustizia che a questo mondo le persone bene abbiano più diritto di annegarsi o d'impiccarsi che gli altri cristiani.
(Comincia a scavare)
Affonda, vanga! Non c'è nobiltà a questo mondo di più antica data dei giardinieri, degli affossatori e dei becchini, la cui professione continua quella che faceva Adamo.
Secondo becchino Perché, Adamo era nobile?
Primo becchino E' stato lui il primo a portar armi.
Secondo becchino Ma va'! Se non ne aveva!
Primo becchino Che dici! Non sarai mica un eretico? Come la interpreti tu la Scrittura? Secondo la Scrittura, egli zappava; poteva egli zappare senza l'arma delle braccia? Ti faccio altra domanda, adesso, e se non mi rispondi giusto, confèssati per un...
Secondo becchino Dài, tira avanti!
Primo becchino Ecco: chi è che fabbrica più solido del muratore, oppur del carpentiere, oppur più del falegname.
Secondo becchino Chi fa forche. Perché fa qualche cosa che vive più di mille suoi inquilini.
Primo becchino Azzeccata. Il tuo spirito mi piace. Le forche vanno bene, ma per chi? Per quelli che fan male; e tu fai male a dire che una forca è più solida d'una chiesa, àrgal, la forca è cosa che va bene a te. Avanti, prova ancora.
Secondo becchino (Ripetendo la prima domanda del primo becchino) "Chi è che costruisce più robusto del muratore, oppur del carpentiere, oppur del falegname?"
Primo becchino Dimmi questo, e poi basta.
Secondo becchino Dunque, vediamo un po'... aspetta, aspetta... Ce l'ho in punta di lingua...
Primo becchino Allora sputalo.
Secondo becchino Macché, perdincibacco, non mi viene!
Entrano, dal fondo, Amleto e Orazio
Primo becchinoBeh, via, non lambiccarti più il cervello. L'asino tardo non aggiusta il passo sotto le bastonate. Un'altra volta, se ti faranno la stessa domanda,
rispondi: "il beccamorto"; le sue case durano fino al giorno del Giudizio. Adesso, per favore, va' da Yaughan e fatti dare una pinta di birra.
(Esce il secondo becchino)
(Cantando mentre zappa)
"Da ragazzo far l'amore
"mi sembrava un dolce gioco
"per trascorrer le mie ore,
"ma n'ho ricavato poco..."
Amleto Non ha costui coscienza del mestiere,
se può cantare scavando una fossa?
Orazio Lo rende indifferente l'abitudine.
Amleto Proprio così; man che poco lavora,
ha più sensibile il senso del tatto.
Primo becchino (Sempre cantando)
"Ma col passo suo felpato
"la vecchiaia mi ha ghermito,
"per sotterra m'ha avviato,
"come mai non fossi nato."
I took this shot of the Manhattan Skyline from Liberty Island, New York City, in October 2004 with my first digital camera, a Fuji MX. Wish I'd had my Nikon D80 back then...but of course it didn't exisit at the time :-)
INFORMATION ON MANHATTAN ISLAND:
Manhattan is an island borough of New York City, New York, USA, coterminous with New York County. With a 2006 population of 1,611,581[1] living in a land area of 22.96 square miles (59.47 km²), it is the most densely populated county in the United States at 66,940 residents per square mile (25,846/km²). It is also the second wealthiest county in the United States. The borough consists of Manhattan Island, Roosevelt Island, Randalls Island, almost 1/10th of Ellis Island, the above-water portion of Liberty Island, several much smaller islands, and a small section on the mainland of New York State adjacent to the Bronx.
Manhattan is a major commercial, financial, and cultural center of the United States, and to some extent, the world. Most major radio, television, and telecommunications companies in the United States are based here, as well as many news, magazine, book, and other media publishers. Manhattan has many famous landmarks, tourist attractions, museums, and universities. It is also home to the headquarters of the United Nations. Manhattan has the largest central business district in the United States, is the site of both the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, and is the home to the largest number of corporate headquarters in the nation. It is indisputably the center of New York City and the New York metropolitan region, holding the seat of city government, and the largest fraction of employment, business, and recreational activities.
The name Manhattan derives from the word Manna-hata, as written in the 1609 logbook of Robert Juet, an officer on Henry Hudson's yacht Halve Maen (Half Moon). A 1610 map depicts the name Manahata twice, on both the west and east sides of the Mauritius River (later named the Hudson River). The word "Manhattan" has been translated as "island of many hills" from the Lenape language. The Encyclopedia of New York City offers other derivations, including from the Munsee dialect of Lenape: manahachtanienk ("place of general inebriation"), manahatouh ("place where timber is procured for bows and arrows"), or menatay ("island").
According to 2007 U.S. Census Bureau estimates, there were 1,620,867 people residing in Manhattan on July 1, 2007. As of the 2000 Census, the population density of New York County was 66,940.1/sq mi (25,849.9/km²), the highest population density of any county in the United States. If the 2007 census estimates are accurate, then the population density now exceeds 70,595 people per square mile. In 1910, at the height of European immigration to New York, Manhattan's population density reached a peak of 120,250.299/sq mi (46,428.9/km²). There were 798,144 housing units in 2000 at an average density of 34,756.7/sq mi (13,421.8/km²). Only 20.3% of Manhattan residents lived in owner-occupied housing, the second-lowest rate of all counties in the nation, behind The Bronx.

Al-Wahhab : The Giver of All who constantly bestows blessings of every kind.
YA RABBİ
Seni tarif etmektedir bütün güzel isimler
Sen güzel isimlerini aşikar etmezsen ruhum karanlıkta kalır
Esmaül Hüsna’na şahit yaz beni...
Ya Vehhab
Yokluğa sırf yok oldugu için varlık bahşedersin
Nankörlerin bile rızkını kesmez inkar edenlere bile nefes verirsin
Varlığın senin lütfundur senin ihsanındır
Aciz varlığıma lütfunu ihsanını daim eyle...
Vehhab : Karşılıksız veren, sonu gelmeyen bağışların sahibi. Kullarına hiçbir karşılık gözetmeksizin tekrar tekrar ve çok çok bağışlarda bulunan.
Cenab-ı Hak buyuruyor:
"Yoksa, güçlü ve üstün olan, karşılıksız bağışlayan Rabbinin hazineleri onların yanında mıdır" (Sad,9)
Büyük zatlar, bir kimse dua ettiği zaman 7 kere "Yâ Vehhâb" dese o kimsenin duasını Allah teala kabul eder, demişlerdir. Bir şey isteyen, düşman elinde bağlı kalan, rızkında darlık olan, ticaretinde ve kazancında çokluk ve kârlıllık olmayan veya seyrü sülûkünde her hangi bir fethi olmayan kimse üç gece veya yedi gece boyunca gece yarısı abdest alıp ve iki rekat namaz kılıp başını açarak ellerini havaya kaldırarak Yâ Vehhâb" dedikten sonra ihtiyacını Cenab-ı Hakk'a arzetse Allahü teala onun ihtiyacını karşılar, sıkıntısını giderir.
