La obra de Arthania (en oleos sobre lienzo) supera las 13000 unidades(medida radiestésica), por lo que entra de lleno en el campo emocional, sus efectos curativos puede que sean debidos precisamente a esto, es decir, como armonizadores del sistema nervioso central, a través de él, afecta positivamente a los distintos sistemas orgánicos. La pintura de Arthania, en virtud de su emisión de forma, puede ser un factor armonizador de primera magnitud. Os invito a disfrutar de esta sorprendente muestra desde una actitud positiva, serena, abierta, desde el fluir, desde la receptividad, desde el silencio. Este es el camino más seguro para percibir los impulsos curativosy transformadores que se ocultan tras los sutiles velos de la obra de Arthania.

The Waldensia Coal and Coke Company under took in 1901 an effort to build a large complex to support their coal mining and coke making business. Among the supporting facilities were 80 cottages, a commissary, a hotel, offices, a school*, a post office, a train depot, many coke ovens, a large coal washing facility, and a railroad! It was all completed in 1904.
A sawmill was also constructed to prepare the wood for their building needs, and most of the required logging was done on their own property.
The lake was created by the building of a dam on Mammy’s Creek, where it still stands today. Since the lake and dam are on private property today (2009), you have to view the lake, and falls that cascade over the dam wall, through a large growth of hemlocks. I was told by the owner that someone had recently fallen on the property and was currently suing him over a broken hip. Therefore, “private property” signs have been posted and a fence is being built around the beautiful lake.
I suppose this means that the cool waters of the lake and the shade of the hemlocks will never be freely available to the general public again. Such a shame…why do Americans have to sue so much?

The excavations of Pompeii is the only archaeological site in the world, along with that of Herculaneum, capable of returning visitors to a Roman town, whose life has remained firm to a distant morning in 79 AD, an era from which the Vesuvius decided to cancel by earth orbit. The town owes its exceptional state of preservation to the way in which it was buried. Source: www.pompeiturismo.it

The city of Pompeii was an ancient Roman town-city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania, in the territory of the comune of Pompei. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area, was mostly destroyed and buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Researchers believe that the town was founded in the seventh or sixth century BC and was captured by the Romans in 80 BC. By the time of its destruction, 160 years later, its population was probably approximately 20,000, with a complex water system, an amphitheatre, gymnasium and a port. Source: en.wikipedia.org

Recently I have not photographed much. Don't know really why. I want to make pictures. I love it. But I don't know, the inspiration haven't been there. I look at pictures and say to myself "Woooow, that's awesome, I wanna do something like that!!" But than I realises that I don't have the right equipment or don't know a model that would look good in the picture or something..
Maybe I have too high expectations. I should just play around more.
Need to find some photo friends, and some girls that actually like to be in pictures. And just have fun.
But my camera has some serious auto-focus problems. hate it! Pentax K10D..
But today a guy called me and asked if I wanted to make pictures for a new book about the copper mine here in Falun. So I have something to do in the summer. And will be one step closer to a new camera. I am thinking about the Canon 7D. Actually I think i like Nikon more, but the 7D looks so good. And the video too!
I should make this 365 project that everyone else does. Not because I have too but because it would be fun. I DO enjoy photography. It's just picking up the camera that has been hard lately.
Anyways.
Stobist:
I made a mini-mini-diy-beauty dish of a candy box that I used for this picture, to the right of the camera. Another bare flash behind the model (me) to the left. Triggered with radio poppers.
An 18th century grotesque ‘Dinemonyo’ altar table
Estimate: PHP 900,000 - 950,000
Manila
18th century
Wood
84 x 110 x 72 cm (33 x 43 x 28 ½ in)
Made of highly prized indigenous rosewood known as balayong (Afzelia rhomboidea), it has a reddish brown color that tends to darken even more with age, and has a natural luster. Very difficult to work with due to its durability and interlocking grain. The craftsmanship and condition of this table is comparable to similar tables kept in museums and top-notch private collections.
Called colloquially as dinemonyo table, it is one of the most elusive pieces of early Hispano-Filipino furniture, considered arguably as the pinnacle object to many serious furniture collectors and connoisseurs. An authentic example with original members, it is an extremely rare find.
The rectangular paneled top is enclosed by a frame with ice-plate edge to soften the edges and disguise its thickness. Below are two large drawers fitted with umbrella bosses, ornate protective key plates, and O-ring pulls. Reinforced by flanges and aprons with conforming billowing, cloud-like outlines that connect the demonyo masks on all four corners. These finely carved masks have raised fluted top hair, bulging eyes, prominent nose, mouth agape revealing some teeth and fangs, and scrolling facial hair. The cabriole legs show the delineations of a lion’s lower leg before terminating in deep, highly detailed ball and claw foot grasping a ball, resting on round-edged stretchers surmounted on ogee feet. Assembled using ancient Chinese mortise and tenon (closed and through types), as well as dovetail joints that have remained firm and strong.

MOSQUE OF THE EL JEBEL SHRINE TEMPLE (1770 Sherman Street Event Complex)
1770 Sherman St.
National Register 10/24/1997, 5DV.2892
This 1907 building, one of the best examples of Moorish-inspired architecture in Colorado, utilizes Middle Eastern architectural styles to create ceremonial spaces in keeping with the spirit and rituals of the Ancient Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. The architects, the Baerresen Brothers, reached the pinnacle of their prolific practice with its design. The exterior is one of the best examples of Moorish-inspired architecture in Colorado, and the interior exhibits an incredible collection of architectural styles, ranging from Moorish and Egyptian to French Provincial, Elizabethan, and Arts and Crafts. No other interior space in the state surpasses the mosque for its high level of artistic detail and craftsmanship.

U2- City of Blinding lights
The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart day-glow eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies
For people like us
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs purple irises
The camera can't see
I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
(cut)
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
Time...time...time...time...time
Won't leave me as I am
But time won't take the boy out of this man
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
The more you know the less you feel
Some pray for others steal
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel... luckily

Benefit for Jordan Renne Cilley and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International
"Thank you for coming to When You Believe. My name is Jordan Renne Cilley. I am ten years old and I have Juvenile Diabetes Type l. I was diagnosed on March 17, 2007, when I was only seven years old.
...You get diabetes when your pancreas stops making natural insulin in your body. The insulin injections help bring down my blood sugar. I have to poke my finger to check my blood sugar before every meal and snack... Then I have to give myself insulin injections... [adding up to] 6-8 injections a day... I also have to be careful that my blood sugar doesn't go too low, because I could end up in the hospital.
Sometimes I get upset and cry that I have to stop what I'm doing to check my blood, and take insulin injections. It' not fair that I have to let my team down and stop playing a volleyball game because I feel low and have to bring my blood sugars up. It makes me sad that I have juvenile diabetes.
With your help I want to raise money to find a cure for juvenile diabetes, to educate people about juvenile diabetes so that people are aware of who and why we have juvenile diabetes. Finding a cure for juvenile diabetes means not having to always poke our fingers to check our blood. It means that we will be able to live life without being afraid of our blood sugar getting too high or too low. It means that someday we would not have to take insulin injetions anymore."

not so successful dog class yesterday.
still taking matea weekly to classes to help her overcome her fear issues...and to improve my handling skills when around other dogs.
because her issue with other dogs is based on fear (thank you dog parks!), my trainer is trying to convince me to not come down on matea for attempting to go for a dog, but instead to work on her focus on me (which i totally have unless a dominant dog comes along) and that if an incident DOES occur that i'm to work on 'recovery' more than anything. for instance, when matea wouldn't take shit from cheryl (the trainer)'s jack russell some weeks ago and went for the little tart, cheryl simply pulled matea off, held her for three seconds by the beard, and then - in a very happy voice - said: "okay, let's play!"
at the time, i didn't feel that was enough. matea is a black and white dog. she NEEDS extreme positive AND negative for her to understand definitions and boundaries. i learned this early on in my training with her, when eight months of positive-only training got me nothing but a dog requiring constant food-lures...but when outdoors or otherwise distracted, let me tell you, a bleeding strip of sirloin ain't gonna capture her attention.
she's a wirehaired pointer. i talk to other GWP owners on a group, and i hear over and over again that these are not typical dogs, that they aren't the kind of dog most trainers are accustomed to. i'm tending to agree.
so...yesterday, i was at class, on the bench at the far side of the classroom, getting treats ready, when in comes this nitwit woman (i won't speak of race because i'll only come across as racist...but suffice it to say, she was in her own world with her own language, and was utterly oblivious to others in the class)...well, in fact, it wasn't her coming in...it was her dog hauling her in...a chow cross, i heard her say to someone else, but it looked like a chow/jindo dog...tall, muscular, 1 1/2 times matea's size, tail erect and clearly dominant. (in fact, i saw his dominance very clearly at the end of class with another dog.) he barges through the door, dragging his owner behind him, at the end of his 6' leash, making a diagonal, bee-line right for matea across the classroom. even one of the regular students (a woman who helps with a LOT of the training classes and has a lot of respect for matea) told me afterwards that she couldn't believe what was going on. AND she said that her rottie, too, perked up the second the dog blasted into class because of its attitude.
the owner - completely in her own oblivious, self-absorbed, ignorant world - didn't even seem to notice, or care, that her dog had practically charged matea and was on her ass. the most i could do was stand and try to push the dog away. i should have been more forceful. i should have said something to the woman beforehand, but i don't want to make waves in the class.
still, the dipshit didn't even notice, and the dog was dragged away only slightly because she was trying to make her way to the bench to ready herself for class. it was at that point that matea lunged. yes, i caught her in time. in fact, the rottie-handler (after class) praised me for my handling of the situation.
but here's the thing... my gut reaction is to put matea down, to make sure she knows - without a doubt - that lunging at dogs, regardless of the dog, is NOT appropriate. a three-second censure, get her attention on me, show her my disapproval, and THEN focus on recovery. but no....cheryl swoops in, all positive and happy, trying - with great difficulty - to draw matea's attention from the other dog. she'a fucking GWP!!! no WAY is ANYONE or ANYTHING getting her attention off that 'threat' in any manner. i know she's a dog...i know a lot of her character is not unique, but i've yet to find a trainer who's actually had experience with this breed and its drives. and let me tell you, it IS a drive unlike any other.
my legs were shaking, i felt like crying, and i just wanted to leave. of course, the oblivious owner quickly moved to the other side of the classroom like *I* was the only one with an out-of-control dog. and then, even as i was trying to work with matea, to regain her focus in spite of the other dog's presence, the dipshit STILL continued to ignore her dog. it sat behind her (yes, her back turned to her own dog), its leash lying on the floor, again completely oblivious. the dog would have been on top of matea before the woman ever even realized he'd broken his stay.
i'm angry. i'm disappointed. i'm seeing matea acting out more in class, not less. i need to talk to cheryl, to hopefully convince her that, in spite of her years of experience, she HASN'T seen everything, that she hasn't worked with every kind of dog....and to maybe convince her that i might just know more in regards to my GWP.
seriously, as much as i adore cesar millan, if he offered to take matea for a period of time, i wouldn't let him. i feel that although he and others are obviously FAR more experienced than i am, they don't know this kind of dog...that even though matea's never hurt another dog, most trainers would underestimate her potential to do so, they would underestimate her drive to make a point. so....i need to sit down with cheryl again, see if anything can be done. in the meantime, i hold back my tears and love this dog in spite of the dangerous potential i know lies within her.
oh, and i also intend to discuss with cheryl that she consider addressing her students (current and future) on the proper way to bring dogs into any facility....pack leader first, goddammit. of the dogs that matea has had issue with, they're ALL the ones who drag their owners through the front door.
sorry for the dump. i guess the thing that sucks the most about this is that if not for this dog-issue of matea's, in spite of my fantastic imagination, i could NOT imagine a more perfect dog and best friend.

A house in Brougham with the forgotten spirits/ memories that are being lost
Green River and Brougham are two towns a couple miles apart where I grew up. The land was expropriated several decades ago to build a new Toronto International Airport. The original owners were forced out for progress that did not happen and the house and properties were rented by the Federal Government to people like my mother. 30+ years later, with renewed interest in the airport, renters are being systematically forced out and farms and houses bulldozed, in preparation for the Airport. The loss of hundreds of years of culture and some of the finest most pristine nature, farm land and trout streams left in Southern Ontario is sad and tragic…we are watching our past be leveled.

Another man evicted in Brougham
by darinotte @ 24 Feb. 2008 - 12:12:17 pm
Residents have had enough with saying goodbye to long-time friends
Tue Jan 29, 2008
By Kristen Calis
PICKERING -- Protestors, politicians and concerned residents marched along the streets of Brougham on Monday, carrying a casket not to mourn a death, but the loss of hopes and dreams of a longtime resident.
It was the day Mike Puterbough, who moved into his Brougham home in 1974, was evicted. The 59-year-old has been fighting Transport Canada in a court battle for the past three years, and said he was finally told to go because his home wasn’t worth fixing.
“I’ve been very angry but today I just feel complete sadness,” Mr. Puterbough said.
The federal government expropriated 7,500 hectares of farmland in 1972, but has still given no final word on whether an airport will be built or not on the land. In the meantime, the community has been slowly diminishing, and residents in north Pickering have been fighting evictions and demolitions of homes.
The local anti-airport group Land Over Landings began as People or Plains, of which Michael Robertson was a founding member. He spoke of his disgust at the protest.
“We’re here witnessing what, for a normal landlord, was an illegal act,” he said to approximately 50 supporters. “A winter eviction, after 33 years, and with a heart condition, Mike is literally put out in the cold. This is clearly over the edge of common decency, if not the law.”
Mr. Robertson added the fight isn’t over.
Mr. Puterbough will move in with family in Uxbridge for the time being, but isn’t sure where he’ll go after that.
This weekend I viewed an hour long documentary regarding the history of the proposed Pickering airport. I was inspired by the fact that back in the 70's, hippy farmers were able to stick it to the man & stop the airport development. The fight continues to this; here are some related links:

Yesterday I saw this modest Ferrari, parked tight between other cars, and at first I wasn't that creative with taking pictures of it.
So, I've tried to do something different from what I use to do here.
The car was quite dirty, had lost some of its shine and had a dent just before its front wheel.
The light was actually quite nice though, so I thought this shot fitted the car very well.
The Ferrari 328 GTS is the targa version of the fixed roof 328 GTB.
The GTB referred to the Gran Turismo Berlinetta (coupé) body while the GTS was a Gran Turismo Spider (targa top).
The 328 GTS and GTB were the final developments of the normally aspirated transverse V8 engine 2 seat series.
The 328 figures in the model title referred to the total cubic capacity of the engine, 3.2 litres, and 8 for the number of cylinders. The new model was introduced at the 1985 Frankfurt Salon alongside the Mondial 3.2 series.
www.expressnews.com/business/local/article/One-of-San-Ant...
One of San Antonio’s oldest businesses has quietly disappeared from the local landscape.
The Southwell Co., which began operations a year after the Civil War ended and was best known for making thousands of historical markers for the state, was sold earlier this year and its San Antonio operations shut down.
The company, which also produced cast metal plaques and letters, was acquired by Corpus Christi Stamp Works Inc., headed Harry Lee Chester Jr., a cousin of the fourth generation of Southwells who owned The Southwell Co. The deal closed in May.
The Southwell Co. produced more than 16,000 state historical markers for the state over six decades, according to a 2016 article in the Texas Historical Commission’s quarterly magazine. The company also produced markers for other states.
The company was the only state contractor to ever make the markers. The Texas Historical Commission in August issued a request for proposals to find a successor.
The markers denote famous and consequential times and places in Texas’ history, from the site of the Battle of San Jacinto in 1836 to the Port Arthur home of famed blues singer Janis Joplin to the construction of the Majestic Theatre on Houston Street.
The company’s final years were marked by dissension among family members, with the feud spilling into court before a settlement was reached.
In the midst of the bad blood, William “Bill” P. Southwell Jr., the third generation to run the business, died June 27, 2017, at 91.
The Southwell Co.’s longtime operations on North Alamo Street have been shuttered. Calls to the office are rerouted to Corpus Christi Stamp Works, which makes plaques, metal face letter and traffic signs.
“It was sad for us to close it, but you reach a point where you can’t go on forever,” Scott Southwell said Friday about the decision to sell. He owned the business with his brother Wilson “Billy” Southwell III. “Without having any heirs to pass on the business to, and we’re both getting up there in age, it didn’t make any financial sense for us to keep working basically just to pay property taxes that had gotten so high.” Scott is 53 and Billy is 65.
“We loved the business. We loved what we did, ” Scott Southwell added. “Our product is a very special product. We loved all our employees.” He added the company assisted in helping some of the 20 employees find work with similar companies.
Chester didn’t respond to a request for comment.
Corpus Christi Stamp Works did not assume the historical marker business.
The Southwell Co. is a “natural fit” for the new owner, Scott Southwell said. “We’ve been helping them along the way. They’re doing quite well with what they bought.”
CPS Energy bought The Southwell Co. building and an adjacent building at 910 N. Alamo for just under $2.8 million in January 2018, CPS spokesman Seamus Nelson said in an email.
The buildings are next door to a CPS electrical substation, which the utility wants to expand. CPS has no particular timeline, but “because of growth in the area, the substation is being evaluated as part of our five-year planning process,” Nelson added.
In 1866, the Southwell business launched in a little shop on Commerce Street, making stencils for wool and cotton shippers. Rubber stamps and seals were later added, according to The Southwell Co.’s website.
Known as the San Antonio Rubber Stamp Co., it was acquired by George T. Southwell in 1912. His son, Wilson, took over the business in 12 years later upon George’s death.
Bill Southwell Jr., after graduating from the University of Texas at Austin, joined the family business. The company’s name was changed to The Southwell Co. in 1953, according to its website.
The company opened its plant at 928 N. Alamo in the early 1960s.
In 1977, Billy Southwell became the fourth generation to work in the family business. Twelve years later, Scott joined the company.
The Texas Historical Commission in 2016 honored The Southwell Co. with its own historical marker to honor its 150th year in business.
About 2½ years ago, the brothers were sued by their parents and sister, Deborah, 67, for fraud. The brothers were accused of persuading their parents, Bill and Phyllis Southwell, to sign documents “under duress” that turned over all of their ownership in The Southwell Co. to the brothers in 2015.
The brothers disputed the allegations, and alleged their sister exceeded her authority under a power of attorney in acting on her parent’s behalf.
Within a couple of weeks of the suit being filed, the attorneys for both sides said the dispute had been settled confidentially out of court.
A month after Bill Southwell’s death in June 2017, however, an amended lawsuit was filed against the brothers alleging they failed to pay the settlement or sign the settlement papers.
The brothers responded four day later by denying they breached the settlement agreement, and provided copies of a $100,000 check and a $400,000 check that had been cut to their father and sister, respectively.
Activity in the litigation ceased until Feb. 1, 2018 — a day after the sale of the North Alamo properties to CPS — when the case was dropped.
“We fulfilled our obligations,” Scott Southwell said of the dispute.
This was an incredible old real-ale pub owned by the equally extraordinary Mrs Davies (who has now sadly passed away) until just a couple of years ago.
She was well into her eighties when this photograph was taken, and had grown up in Melbourne Australia, where her father was a racehorse trainer.
She inherited this pub when she was a little younger, and simply decided to come over to Wales to run it.
Absolutely nothing inside had changed since the 1930's,,,and the beer was just as good as then too, I've little doubt.
If you look at this photograph in "original" size, and look at the left hand side of the frame, you can just about see Mrs Davies in an even older framed photograph, hanging on the wall.
The guy sitting next to my wife is Genadii Dubayev, the Chechen novelist, who now teaches at The Sorbonne in Paris.
We were privileged to have him visit us over that Christmas and New Year (2002-03).
He's also a mean hand with an old vintage Leica out of the true Cartier Bresson mould.
If you should ever run into him however,,,don't let him challenge you to a Vodka drinking competition.
A genuine "Extreme Sport", at which you will certainly lose,,,but big-time, as I did (that is if you're a "normal" human being,,,and not somebody from Chechnya).

5.Deci a venit la o cetate a Samariei, numită Sihar, aproape de locul pe care Iacov l-a dat lui Iosif, fiul său;
6.Şi era acolo fântâna lui Iacov. Iar Iisus, fiind ostenit de călătorie, S-a aşezat lângă fântână şi era ca la al şaselea ceas.
7.Atunci a venit o femeie din Samaria să scoată apă. Iisus i-a zis: Dă-Mi să beau.
8.Căci ucenicii Lui se duseseră în cetate, ca să cumpere merinde.
9.Femeia samarineancă I-a zis: Cum Tu, care eşti iudeu, ceri să bei de la mine, care sunt femeie samarineancă? Pentru că iudeii nu au amestec cu samarinenii.
10.Iisus a răspuns şi i-a zis: Dacă ai fi ştiut darul lui Dumnezeu şi Cine este Cel ce-ţi zice: Dă-Mi să beau, tu ai fi cerut de la El, şi ţi-ar fi dat apă vie.
11.Femeia I-a zis: Doamne, nici găleată nu ai, şi fântâna e adâncă; de unde, dar, ai apa cea vie?
12.Nu cumva eşti Tu mai mare decât părintele nostru Iacov, care ne-a dat această fântână şi el însuşi a băut din ea şi fiii lui şi turmele lui?
13.Iisus a răspuns şi i-a zis: Oricine bea din apa aceasta va înseta iarăşi;
14.Dar cel ce va bea din apa pe care i-o voi da Eu nu va mai înseta în veac, căci apa pe care i-o voi da Eu se va face în el izvor de apă curgătoare spre viaţă veşnică.

4 Jesus had to go through Samaria. 5 He came to a Samaritan city called Sychar, which was near the land Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus was tired from his journey, so he sat down at the well. It was about noon.
7 A Samaritan woman came to the well to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me some water to drink.” 8 His disciples had gone into the city to buy him some food.
9 The Samaritan woman asked, “Why do you, a Jewish man, ask for something to drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (Jews and Samaritans didn’t associate with each other.)
10 Jesus responded, “If you recognized God’s gift and who is saying to you, ‘Give me some water to drink,’ you would be asking him and he would give you living water.”
11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you don’t have a bucket and the well is deep. Where would you get this living water? 12 You aren’t greater than our father Jacob, are you? He gave this well to us, and he drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.”
13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks from the water that I will give will never be thirsty again. The water that I give will become in those who drink it a spring of water that bubbles up into eternal life.”
15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will never be thirsty and will never need to come here to draw water!”

Le parc naturel régional de la Brenne recense 11 des 37 espèces de reptiles autochtones protégées en France. Véritable animal emblématique de la Brenne, la Cistude d'Europe trouve ici un lieu de prédilection. Plusieurs dizaines de milliers d'individus font ainsi de la Brenne une des premières régions françaises pour cette espèce.
Cistudes ♀ (à gauche) et ♂ (à droite), Emys orbicularis. La Cistude est intégralement protégée en France, mais dans certaines aires de sa répartition ses effectifs diminuent fortement.
Cette petite tortue est essentiellement diurne. Plutôt méfiante et craintive, la tortue Bourbeuse est surtout active aux heures les plus chaudes dans la journée. Elle passe une grande partie de son temps posée sur des troncs émerfés ou à flotter à la surface de l'eau. C'est un animal très discret, elle est très farouche et plonge au moindre bruit, ce qui la rend très difficile à repérer.
Le grillage n'est là que pour empêcher les moutons de pénétrer dans l'étang.
Et voilà, encore une bonne raison d'avoir envie d'un zoom correct, mon vieux clou n'est vraimant pas performant.

One of the views on my almost daily walk. When I go back to a job in early November I get to see it twice a day along my perambulations to and from the bus. Quite often you get to see canoes traveling into that bend. :-)

Part of a brief series of photos on the Rozanji, a temple credited as one of the places where Murakami Shikibu wrote, exactly a thousands years ago, the Genji monogatari. The house of his father, the courtier Fujiwara Tametoki, was here and, if not the building, this could be the place she was refering to as "home" when wrote in her Diary (as translated by Richard Bowring):
"What on earth are you doing in such cold weather?" asked His Excellency. "You are meant to be convalescing!" Nevertheless he brought her exquisite paper brushes and ink from time to time, an even an inkstone. When the women found out that Her Majesty had given it to me, they all complained loudly that I had obtained it by going behind their backs. Despite this, she made me another present of some excellent colored paper and some brushes.
Then, while I was busy in attendance, His Excellency sneaked into my room and found the copy of the Tale that I had had brought from home for safe-keeping. It seems that he gave the whole thing to his second daughter. I no longer had the fair copy in my possession and was sure that the version she had would hurt my reputation.
As the setsubun festivities were taking place, the garden was closed the day we payed our visit, but this man we made friends with managed to get us in there after a few words with the monks. Once there, he pointed out to the room at the corner, left side here, and said it was there where Murasaki Shikibu began writing her masterwork, while looking at the garden (now called Genji niwa, id est Genji's Garden). Oviously an exageration (the temple was rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1788) but the experience was moving all the same. And, after all, if not exactly there, it could be a few meters from there, huh?

A stately four-poster canopy bed
Estimate: PHP 180,000 - 200,000
Last Quarter, 19th century
San Isidro, Nueva Ecija
Red narra, cane / solihiya
260 x 215 x 134 cm
(102 x 84 x 92 in)
Lot 450 of the Salcedo Auctions auction on 21 September 2019. Please see salcedoauctions.com for more details.
A well-conceived bed with elaborate and very finely carved details, designed to impress. It may appear as a gallimaufry of Rococo and Renaissance Revival styles, but the impression is nothing short of stately and elegant. The imposing rectangular headboard, canopy and bed frame brackets are pierce-carved with acanthus leaves, scrolls, flowers, fruits (duhat or Java plum and chesa or canistel), and foliage. The crests rise and fall gracefully along the perimeters of the canopy like cascading waves. The legs and post supports have turned rings, spools, balls and vases; and the barley-twist posts are deeply carved. The bed frame, carved with long lunettes on the sides, is tenoned through the post supports carved with round cabochons. Such exquisite work! The superb craftsmanship and very good condition justifiably make this one of the best provincial beds we have handled.

201 años dempués de la declaración de soberanía de 1808 Fai! quixo recordar esti 25 de mayu como'l día nacional d'Asturies. Pa ello, entamóse una folixa que cuntó con un recital poéticu, la ellaboración d'un mural y un conciertu con 4 grupos asturianos que punxeron la banda sonora a una xornada reivindicativa pola soberanía popular asturiana.
Más d’un cientu de persones participaron esti sábadu 23 na I Folixa Nacional entamada por Fai! como reivindicación y celebración del Día de la Nación Asturiana, recuerdu de la xornada qu’abre la historia contemporánea d’Asturies, el 25 de mayu de 1808, día de la declaración de soberanía de la Xunta Xeneral.
Doscientos ún años depués d’esti fechu y de la creación de la bandera asturiana, la organización d'esquierda soberanista Fai! quixo ufrir un menú folixeru y combativu nel marcu del CSOA La Reflexón. Abriendo les actividaes, Sergio Gutiérrez Camblor, Carlos Suari, Pablo X. Suárez, Xabel Vegas y Xandru Fernández protagonizaron el recital poéticu “Poetes agresivos (disparen les sos obres contra los que se duermen)”, onde tuvo bien presente, de la mano de los sos versos, la crítica social y la ironía más característica de cinco poetes que representaron na Folixa’l presente y el futuru de la lliteratura nacional, al tiempu que nes paredes se proyectaben imáxenes subversives qu'afalaben l'ambiente combativu del recital.
De siguío, dellos artistes plásticos emprimaben a diseñar un mural que tenía la histórica fras como protagonista: “Asturies enxamás vencida”.
Dientro del CSOA, organización, delles puestos de material y músicos ultimaben tolos detalles pa que dende les siete y media, la música entamara a sonar na I Folixa Nacional con un escenariu enllenu d'asturines y de banderes d'otros pueblos en llucha como les de los Països Catalans, Castiella, el País Llionés, Andalucía, Euskal Herria, Palestina...K-Nalón yera’l grupu encargáu de romper el silenciu col so rap dinamiteru 100% n’asturianu.
Darréu Arma X y 13 Palabras xubíen al escenariu de La Reflexón pa que la revolución de rimes nun aparara.Metanes l'actuación, una pancarta xubió al escenariu pa denunciar la illegalización de les idées y pola derogación de la llei de partíos.
Al finar esta actuación los sones reivindicativos dexaron pasu al actu políticu, onde militantes de Fai! lleeron un manifiestu en favor del 25 de mayu como día nacional d'Asturies. Enantes, un representante del Comité de Sofitu a Iniciativa Internacionalista n'Asturies, que llamentablemente foi la única organización qu'acudió a la llamada que dende Fai! se ficiere a los partíos de la izquierda nacional asturiana pa dicir unes pallabres, agradeció'l convite y presentó la campaña que ta desendolcando'l comité nesti país, a pesar de les torgues y la criminalización que careció y carez esta y otres munches opciones polítiques d'esquierda soberanista nel estáu español.
Na segunda metada del conciertu Vinagre de Sidra abría capítulu pa les guitarres y el rock, que yá na fin de la nueche diba zarrar Gomeru, depués de cinco hores de música dende la trinchera más reivindicativa del país.
Dende Fai! nun queremos que s'escaeza la nuestra historia, la historia d'un pueblu combativu que siempre supo tar a l'altura de les circunstancies. Güei tócanos a nosotres y nosotros, les y los asturianes y asturianos del sieglu XXI siguir na llucha en busca de la soberanía popular d'Asturies.
