The beautiful Sacred Heart Cathedral was designed by the architect W Tappin in 1887. The architectural style is English Gothic.
The cathedral is the largest cathedral outside Melbourne and reputedly the last Early Gothic style cathedral built in the world. Construction began in 1896 and continued until 1908 before lapsing through lack of funds until 1954 when work recommenced.
It was completed in 1977. Dominating the Bendigo skyline, it is built of Geelong sandstone and the tallest spire is 86.6 metres with the bronze cross at its apex weighing 3 tonnes and standing 7 metres.

Listen Spirit of the sea - BlackMore's Night
I took a walk along the shore
To clear my mind about the day,
I saw a man I´d seen before
As I approached he slipped away...
I knew his face from years ago,
His smile stays with me ever more
His eyes, they guide me through the haze
And give me shelter from the storm...
As I walk I can feel him,
Always watching over me...
His voice surrounds me,
My Spirit of the Sea...
He went away so long ago,
[ Letras de Canciones encontraron en es.mp3lyrics.org/vI3 ]
On a maiden voyage far away
A young man then I did not know,
His life was taken that same day...
And it was almost like he knew
He wouldn´t see me anymore
He looked so deeply in my eyes, and said
"Wait for me along the shore..."
And so I come most every day,
To watch the waves rise and fall,
And as I sit here on the sand,
This ocean makes me feel so small...
But I feel my lover by my side,
And he makes me follow my own heart
We´ll be together some sweet day
When that day comes we´ll never part...
When that day comes we´ll never part...
Wait for me along the shore...
Blackmore's Night is a Renaissance-inspired folk rock band led by Ritchie Blackmore (electric guitar and acoustic guitar) and Candice Night (lyricist and lead vocals).
The origins of the band lie in 1990 when Candice Night was working at a local New York rock music radio station. She first encountered Ritchie Blackmore, then with Deep Purple, at a soccer game in which he was playing. The two became romantically involved and discovered that they shared a passionate interest in the Renaissance.
After leaving Deep Purple in 1993 and recording the album Stranger in Us All in 1995, on which Night contributed backing vocals and some of the lyrics, Blackmore became interested in the idea of bringing Renaissance music to a contemporary audience. Night's personality and singing ability made her the natural choice as "frontwoman." In 1997 the pair were ready to launch the band, the name being a pun of their own names, and which would consist of themselves plus session musicians.
Their debut album Shadow of the Moon was an instant success, particularly in Europe. In subsequent albums, particularly Fires at Midnight, there was an increased incorporation of rock guitar into the music, whilst maintaining a folk rock direction. Over time, Candice Night has increasingly participated instrumentally as well as singing the vocals, and is competent in a wide variety of Renaissance instruments.
The group performs at Renaissance fairs and Renaissance Festivals, as well as in stand-alone concert tours in appropriate venues including 'castle tours' of Europe, where they perform in historic surroundings for an audience dressed largely in period costume. The band has been successful enough to inspire a number of international tribute bands including: Renaissance Night and the Italian Morning Star.
They have also performed the music for MagiQuest, a live simulation game located internationally. In 2006, Candice performed a duet with Andi Deris on Helloween's "Light The Universe", which was released as a single in certain countries and is available on their album Keeper Of The Seven Keys - The Legacy, released in the same year. A new album is due to release in June 2008, called Secret Voyage.

The Black Drongo (Dicrurus macrocercus), also known as the King Crow, is a small Asian passerine bird of the drongo family Dicruridae.Is a wholly black bird with a distinctive forked tail and measures 28 cm (11 in) in length. It feeds on insects and is common in open agricultural areas and light forest perching conspicuously on a bare perch.
The bird is a common resident breeder in much of tropical southern Asia from southwest Iran through India and Sri Lanka east to southern China and Indonesia.
This species is famous for its aggressive behaviour towards much larger birds, such as crows, never hesitating to dive-bomb any birds of prey that invades its territory. Smaller birds often nest in the well guarded vicinity of a nesting Black Drongo.

www.darckr.com/username.php?username=9099757@N05 -------------- Illumination of the Brueckenkopfpark Jülich ------ Eine spektakuläre Licht- und Farbinszenierung verwandelt den Brückenkopf-Park in eine Welt voll zauberhafter Stimmungen: Wege glänzen in warmen Tönen, die Wallanlagen schimmern geheimnisvoll, Büsche und Baumwipfel heben sich hell gegen den dunklen Nachthimmel ab… Illuminationen aus Lichternetzen, Scheinwerfern und Projektionen lassen Bäume, Sträucher, Wiesen und Gebäude des Parks in wunderschönem Glanz erstrahlen und erschließen sich dem Betrachter manchmal erst bei genauerem Hinsehen. Scheinbar bekannte Ecken erscheinen auf einmal in ganz neuem Licht und Orte, die am Tag eher versteckt sind, kommen dank der Lichtinszenierung bei Einbruch der Dämmerung ganz groß heraus.
Sobald es dunkel wird, verwandeln LEDs, Strahler, Projektoren, Scheinwerfer, Lichterketten und Lampions das Parkgelände in eine phantasievolle Lichterlandschaft. Lichtkunstobjekte sorgen für eine stimmungsvolle, fast irreale Atmosphäre. Das muss man einfach gesehen haben! Nach einem romantischen Spaziergang durch die leuchtende Oase strahlen die Besucher mit der Illumination um die Wette.
Verantwortlich für die künstlerische Konzeption des „Herbstleuchtens im Park“ ist der Lichtkünstler Wolfgang Flammersfeld aus Unna, der in den letzten Jahren Parks, Höhlen, Stauseemauern und Schlösser spektakulär beleuchtet hat. Gemeinsam mit seinem Team freut er sich insbesondere auf die Illumination der Südbastion. Die vielen Gänge und Nischen bieten einem Lichtkünstler viele phantasievolle Möglichkeiten, mal hell und buntleuchtend, mal gruselig mit sich bewegenden Schatten. Man darf gespannt sein.
2 from a series of 3 on this 'London Underground' theme.
Like many an Irishman, I lived and worked in London for a while back in the 1980s. On days off I took the Piccadilly tube from the west side of town to the centre, mostly to visit the galleries and museums. I love the London Underground, not because it makes navigating the city so easy but because of its 'other-worldly' qualities. Back then, I would occasionally buy a day-pass and spend hours going from station to station, changing lines, watching people and sometimes venturing to the surface for a peek. I took photos too, but have long since misplaced them in the moves between student flats and rented houses in my post graduation days. I recently had the opportunity to relive those days and record them for old-times-sake.
The Underground is usually a hive of activity and busyness, hundreds of thousands of people purposefully moving about, mostly oblivious to their surroundings and each other, hypnotised by the daily routine, programmed to reach their destinations and follow schedules. Then, at certain times, it all stops and the stillness can be overwhelming and at times, even frightening. There's a sense of security in being part of the anonymous masses but the Underground can seem menacing when you find yourself 10 stories beneath the ground alone. These images attempt to capture some of that sentiment. However, I must say, I find the whole place exhilarating and fascinating.

From the Helbronner's top, with the glacier cable car you can reach the Aiguille du Midit which is located at an altitude of 3842 meters above sea level and is the highest point of the Mont Blanc reachable by cable car. On Aiguille du Midi there are some bars, a restaurant, a shop and beautiful terraces. The drive from Helbronner's top to Aiguille du Midi is without doubt the most spectacular view of the journey both for the panorama and the technical aspects: in fact it is at this stage that there is the famous suspended pylon which had been a great work of engineering and is still really exciting to see. With regard to the landscape, the cable flies over the glacier of the giant that joining the Tacul forms the Mer de Glace on the French side. From the cable car you can see people who have chosen to make the crossing on foot and also the European scientific mission, the scenery is breathtaking and leaves you speechless, and I will let the pictures speak.
As I watched the images to make a choice on hubby's I-pod passed "Higher" by Faun Fables, nothing more suitable! Unfortunately I have not even found a version on the web and therefore anyone wants to hear it should get it otherwise ... ehm... I mean... not that I want to go so high so soon but I can't avoid to consider that, believers or not, when we think of the paradise we imagine it bright, white and blue and in my life and I've never seen so much light, so much white and so much blue sky: a true paradise!

Thaipusam actually celebrates the birthday of the Hindu deity Subramaniam. On this occasion, Hindus show the sincerity of their faith. It is a time for making and fulfilling vows. Devotees pray for divine help and make vows. When their prayers are answered, they fulfil their vows.
To do this, a devotee would pierce his cheeks, tongue, face or other suitable body parts with sharp objects. Next his friends or relatives load a *kavadi on his shoulder. Finally, in a trance-like manner, he goes on a 4km journey of faith.
Others, including young children, might join the procession carrying only milk pots. The Thaipusam Singapore procession starts at the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple on Serangoon Road and ends at the Sri Thandayuthapani Temple on Tank Road.
At first look, one might think that the festival starts at one temple and ends at another. Not so. Many of the devotees start fasting a month before the Thaipusam Singapore festivities. Others fast a week. Yet others three days.
A Hindu friend said this to me, "If you are going to put a 12-inch skewer through your cheeks and a hundred spikes in your chest, you'd better take your fast seriously!"
* A kavadi is a cage-like structure carried by devotees during the Thaipusam Festival.
It is traditionally decorated with peacock feathers and aluminium plates which show images of Hindu deities. Sharp spikes criss-cross its lower section.
An elaborate kavadi might weigh up to 15kg! It is quite something just to lift it. But these chaps I saw actually walked with them for 4km - kavadis, skewers, hooks, spikes and all!
Some of them even skipped and danced with their kavadis. Either they have great endurance or they have some supernatural help.

"No hi havia a València dos amants com nosaltres.
Feroçment ens amàvem del matí a la nit.
Tot ho recorde mentre vas estenent la roba.
Han passat anys, molt anys; han passat moltes coses.
De sobte encara em pren aquell vent o l'amor
i rodolem per terra entre abraços i besos.
No comprenem l'amor com un costum amable,
com un costum pacífic de compliment i teles
(i que ens perdone el cast senyor López-Picó).
Es desperta, de sobte, com un vell huracà,
i ens tomba en terra els dos, ens ajunta, ens empeny.
Jo desitjava, a voltes, un amor educat
i en marxa el tocadiscos, negligentment besant-te,
ara un muscle i després el peço d'una orella.
El nostre amor és un amor brusc i salvatge
i tenim l'enyorança amarga de la terra,
d'anar a rebolcons entre besos i arraps.
Què voleu que hi faça! Elemental, ja ho sé.
Ignorem el Petrarca i ignorem moltes coses.
Les Estances de Riba i les Rimas de Bécquer.
Després, tombats en terra de qualsevol manera,
comprenem que som bàrbars, i que això no deu ser,
que no estem en l'edat, i tot això i allò.
No hi havia a València dos amants com nosaltres,
car d'amants com nosaltres en són parits ben pocs."

"No había en Valencia dos amantes como nosotros.
Ferozmente nos amábamos de la mañana a la noche.
Lo recuerdo todo mientras tiendes la ropa.
Han pasado años, muchos años; han pasado muchas cosas.
De pronto aún me atrapa aquel viento o el amor
y rodamos por el suelo entre abrazos y besos.
No comprendemos el amor como una costumbre amable,
como una costumbre pacífica de cumplidos y telas
(y que nos perdone el casto señor López-Picó).
Se despierta, de pronto, como un viejo huracán,
y nos tumba a los dos en el suelo, nos junta, nos empuja.
Yo deseaba, a veces, un amor educado
y el tocadiscos en marcha, negligentemente besándote,
ahora un hombro y después el lóbulo de una oreja.
Nuestro amor es un amor brusco y salvaje,
y tenemos la añoranza amarga de la tierra,
de andar a revolcones entre besos y arañazos.
¡Qué queréis que haga! Elemental, ya lo sé.
Ignoramos a Petrarca e ignoramos muchas cosas.
Las Estancias de Riba y las Rimas de Bécquer.
Después, tumbados en el suelo de cualquier manera,
comprendemos que somos unos bárbaros, y que esto no puede ser,
que no estamos en la edad, y todo esto y aquello.
No había en Valencia dos amantes como nosotros,
porque amantes como nosotros se han parido muy pocos."

My first attempt to do image filtering using the flickr API with a PHP script.
It first ramdomizes a list of all my groups an then checks the first 10 images in each group. I only show images that are favorited at least once and have all sizes available.
The API calls are rather slow. Therefore this script is not really suitable for interactive viewing.
The script itself is in the first comment. The function DumpArrayToTable comes from selfphp.com/code_snippets/code_snippet.php?id=56. I need it to figure out the arrays that phpflickr returns after it calls the flickr API.
NYC IxDA - The 7-Minute IxD Soapbox (a.k.a. Pecha Kucha)
2007-11-13 / Method / SoHo, NYC
At this fast-paced event, we're giving seven people a chance to share their ideas — for just seven minutes each. The only rule is that topic must relate to interaction design. Of course, if you simply prefer to take it all in, you're welcome to participate as an audience member.
TOPICS
Anything goes, as long as it's related to interaction design or user experience. Present some of your work; talk about a design problem you're facing; rant about a device you don't like; effuse about your favorite product; share some results from a usability test; question the value of market research in product development; relate an experience with redesigning a product. If you don't want to soapbox alone pair up with a friend or colleague. Heck, you could even do a parody of your favorite IxD guru, if you're so inclined! If it's something you're interested in, chances are very high we're interested too.
GOAL
To connect people in our diverse and powerful community who are interested in having their interaction design neurons stimulated. This event will be an extraordinary grab-bag of local voices. Practice your speaking and presenting skills! Spark some debate! Make new friends and enemies! Gain new insights!
FORMAT
Speakers may use presentation slides, show off short multimedia, demonstrate something online, or just shoot from the hip. Just make sure it's 7 minutes and no longer. After the seven soaps, we'll hold Q&A and/or discussion. Caveat: Nomenclature debates about our roles and what we call ourselves as practitioners (IA, UX, IxD, HCI, CHI, UCD, etc.) will be reserved for anyone wishing to go to the nearest pub after the event.

('sooc' as usual)
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.

Tengo una espinita que marca mi huella
Tengo una espinita que canta dolor flotando
Tengo una fierita gritándome desde dentro
No es mí, no es yo
Tengo una penita que sopla, no ventila
Mi remolón, mi remolón
Pa qué, pa qué, pa qué seguir llorando, pa qué
Si sólo son tres días, mi niña, y nos quedan dos
Clavao en la puerta seré
Clavao en el suelo me quedé pa...
Clavao en la puerta óyele
Muero remolón no anda quieto
Muero revolcón no parpadea
No pestañea, no duerme
Ni cuando habla de ella
Clavao en la puerta óyele
Clavao en la puerta me he quedao clavao
Clavao en la puerta me quedé
Clavao en la puerta me he quedao vacío
Clavao en la puerta óyele
Clavao en la puerta me he quedao clavao

Sobranceiros à bonita vila de Penacova, o conjunto de Moinhos de Gavinhos é um local especial, pois sobressaem na paisagem, acompanhados por uma imponente imagem do Imaculado Coração de Maria..
Daqui o panorama pela zona envolvente é fantástico, na companhia destes moinhos de vento e de uma imagem do Imaculado Coração de Maria, como que a abençoar os ventos, a vila e o trabalho dos moinhos.
Três destes Moinhos estão ainda em condições suficientes de funcionamento, contudo apenas um funciona hoje em dia, pela mão do único moleiro da aldeia de Gavinhos, moendo o milho, o trigo e o centeio, que durante tanto tempo abasteceu a região e distribuiu para muitas outras.
Vale a pena visitar o Moinho em funcionamento e observar o árduo trabalho do moleiro, e o toda a dinâmica da estrutura, numa arte que se quer mantida e preservada em tempos futuros.
Desde o neolítico superior que existem instrumentos para moer os cereais. Tratam-se das elementares mós barquiformes. Encontram-se muitas em Portugal e até há bem pouco tempo eram usadas para fazer papas de carolo: mistura de vários ingredientes moídos, como milho, açúcar, leite, sal e canela.
Ao longo da história a Peninsula Ibérica foi enriquecendo culturalmente com a passagem dos povos ocupantes: com a chegada dos romanos apareceram os moinhos manuais circulares . Este sistema evoluiu e apareceram mais tarde, uns outros de construção mais leve, a que se adaptou um sistema de dois paus que permitia manobrar a mó mais facilmente . Estes foram os derradeiros moinhos manuais porque estava na altura de passar a usar as forças da natureza.
Os árabes introduziram a entrosga (principio da roda dentada) e conseguiram assim criar um engenho que sobreviveu até aos dias de hoje... estamos a falar dos nossos conhecidos moinhos de vento e azenhas.
Santes Creus nace en espíritu el 1150, cuando la familia de los Montcada cede la primera ubicación del monasterio en Valldaura del Vallès. La primera fecha, pero, de posesión del lugar de Santes Creus en el valle del Gaià la encontramos el 1158. Dadas las disensiones jurisdiccionales entre el obispado de Barcelona y el arzobispado de Tarragona, el monasterio fue víctima de un pleito que motivó que su adscripción fuese exenta de ninguna diócesis. La fachada principal de la iglesia, coronada por almenas, data del siglo XII y presenta una portalada románica con un gran ventanal gótico. La planta es de cruz latina, queda cerrada por detrás del altar y retablo mayor, de Josep Tremulles (siglo XVII), con un gran rosetón. Tiene además tres robustas naves y cinco capillas abacales, muy cerca del altar mayor se localizan las tumbas de Pere II el Gran (siglo XIII) por un lado, y de Jaume II y Blanca d'Anjou (siglo XV) por el otro. El cenobio convertido en panteón real por el primero de estos reyes fue fortificado durante los siglos XIV y XV. El monasterio conserva dos claustros, el de la entrada turística que es gótica y reemplazo uno de anterior románico, del cual sólo queda el templete del lavatorio.
Santes Creus spirit born in 1150, when the Montcada family gave the first location of the monastery in Valldaura del Vallès. The first date, but in possession of the place of Santes Creus in the valley of Gaia we find the 1158. Given the jurisdictional disagreements between the bishop of the archdiocese of Barcelona and Tarragona, the monastery was the victim of a lawsuit that led to his secondment was free of any diocese. The main facade of the church, surmounted by battlements, XII century Romanesque doorway and features a large window with a Gothic. The plant is a Latin cross, is closed behind the altar and reredos, Josep Tremulles (seventeenth century), with a large rosette. Also has three sturdy ships and five chapels abacales, near the main altar are located the tombs of Pere II the Great (thirteenth century) on the one hand, and of James II and Blanche d'Anjou (XV century) on the other. The monastery converted into a royal pantheon by the first of these kings was fortified during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The monastery preserves two cloisters, the tourist entry replacement is Gothic and Romanesque previous one, which is the only temple of the washing.
Only available here and only for a limited time!!
From a frozen ice cave deep within the Applachian Mountains....here come the Polar Skull Bunnies! They are just as cute but so much more rare than other Skull Bunnies. They love the cold and snow so they only come out in the winter. Their polka dot & lavendar fur keeps them warm during their chilly frolicks. But for the rest of the year they hide in their cave, so catch one while you can!
These bunnies are LIMITED EDITION, which means THEY WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED TIME! Of course, being limited edition means they also come with a signed & numbered tag from Spooky Daddy himself.
But just like their cousins the regular Skull Bunnies each one is handmade out of super soft fleece with spooky love and attention to detail.
Since they are handmade no 2 are ever exactly the same. But they all are approx. 11 inches and filled with squishy polyfill. The eyes and faces are carefully machine sewn for duriblity.
If your Skull Bunny gets dirty don't worry you can easily spot clean them with a wet washcloth. Or if they get absolutely filthy just tie them up in a pillow case and toss them in the washer on a cold gentle cycle. And then dry them on low and they will be good and spooky as new and smellin real nice!
While awaiting the arrival of your new pal, you may choose to prepare for him. Here's a handy list of things you can do:
1.) Be sure to have a dark spot for him to hide in when he's feeling shy.
2.) Also, provide him with a nice sunny spot to frolick in when he's feeling peppy. You should also remember that he will only frolick when he's alone, so the sunny spot should be left attended for one half-to one hour per day.
3.) Provide some fake snow (or salt will work in a pinch) to recreate his natural habitat. HOWEVER, IT IS STRONGLY ADVISED AGAINST PLACING YOUR SKULL BUNNY IN A MAYONNAISE JAR. I know it'd a little snow globe but please resist the urge to contain his cuteness. He will thank you for it.
4.) Stop vacuuming underneath your bed. Your Skull Bunny will roam late at night, scouring your home for cookie crumbs (which are his sole source of sustinance.) Also, if you do not eat cookies near or in your bed, you should begin this practice 1-2 days prior to your Skull Bunny's arrival.
Taking these steps will ensure you and your Skull Bunny have a happy, harmoniously spooky life together!

Anh nhớ ngày hôm qua em còn bên cạnh anh
Nhưng sáng tỉnh giấc thì xung quanh anh đả không còn ai bên cạnh
Tự hỏi lòng có ngày hôm nay là do ai
1 cuộc tình đang đẹp trong chóc lát lại phải chia 2
Em đến như giấc mơ , cho cuộc đời anh ngàn chất thơ
Rồi em ra đi thật nhanh , hình bóng không bao h phai mờ
Nhớ không em yêu đây là lần thứ 2
Dù đã rất đau nhưng trong tim anh bóng dáng em vẫn chưa phai
Sự thật đả vậy anh ko dám trách móc gì em đâu
Chỉ mong trên đường nếu có gặp mặt thì xin đừng chào nhau
Anh đả hiêu khi tất cả cmt của anh thành dấu chấm
Và cuộc tình này em là người đặt dấu chấm KẾT
Hết rồi , thật sự đả hết rồi
Niềm tin anh trao cho em trong 2 năm bây h đả chết rồi
Hãy để cơn mưa mùa thu sẽ tiễn bước em đi
Để lại mình anh nơi đây lệ buồn trên 2 bờ mi
Khóc cho thật nhiều rồi anh nhận được gì đau
Có hút thật nhiều có cười thật nhiều và cảm giác anh được là niềm đau
Cố dồn nén cảm xúc để anh lại viết cho em
Nhưng tất cả , chỉ làm cho vết thương trong lòng anh đau thêm
Nắm chặc cây viết nhưng bổng anh chìm vào cơn ngủ thiếp
Mong đêm nay anh lại thấy em , vs nụ cười thật đẹp
Hoa có lúc tàn tình yêu có lúc cạn
Nó như cú sóc làm cho tâm hồn thể xác anh lụy tàn
Ngày qua đêm đến , cơn đau vẫn mãi không nguôi
Vẫn hay đứng gần nhà em thật lâu để nhìn em vậy thôi
Nụ cười của em đâu , 1 tháng qua anh ko thể thấy
Và anh biết , anh biết mất em rồi anh sẽ không thể lấy lại!
ver 3: stick
em đến rồi em phải đi đó là quy luật mà anh phải gánh chịu
nhưng đến bao giờ con tim của em mới hiểu 1 điều
là anh yêu em rất nhìu yêu hơn những thứ anh đang có
nhưng giữ được em với anh phải chăng là quá khó
nhớ ko ? bài hát 2 đứa từng nghe bây giờ có lẽ em đã quên nó
quên đi tất cả những gì mà đôi ta từng có
viết ra 1 bài nhạc rồi gữi nó vào trong gió với tất cả kỉ niệm của ngày đó
cùng 1 cơn mưa nhưng cơn mưa này lại khác đó
vì hiện tại ngay lúc này thì chỉ có 1 mình anh đứng nơi hàng cây
nơi trú mưa đó ?
em có nhớ không ?
làm sao mà nhớ dc !
vì người hạnh phúc là em còn người đắng cay chính là anh đấy
em có hiểu đâu
mãi không hiểu đâu
và lời cuối cùng này anh chúc em tìm được một hạnh phúc nương tựa cho tháng ngày sau
I was really excited to have my future read to me by the famous fortune tellers of Quiapo. I really don't believe in them but the thought of having someone predict what the future holds for me is really entertaining. See more info about the Fortune Tellers of Quiapo
So when "Manang" called me to have a fortune telling session, I happily obliged. For 100 pesos, she told me all the good stuff, like I'll be rich in 3 years time, good health, that I won't have any troubles at work, and that many girls would fall in love with me! hahahaha! At that point, I know she is just teasing me. I really enjoyed talking to Manang about what she saw in her tarot cards. Her humorous ways of explaining the meaning of her readings is truly entertaining!

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

¿Y tú cómo vas?
tienes mala cara,
no me digas más,
si yo te contara…
falleció mi suegro,
me operé del quiste,
¿tú me ves más triste?
Y me doy con un canto en los dientes
porque a la presente,
y, cruzando los dedos,
lo puedo contar,
aunque, gracias a Dios,
yo no soy creyente,
con lo que una ha visto,
y que Dios me perdone,
no hay que ser muy lista.
Pa mí… Jesucristo
el primer comunista.
Como te digo una “co” te digo la “o”
¿Y las religiones?
Ponme una de cada,
que están rebajadas
en el Corte Inglés.
¿Y cual es la mejor?
Mire usted, la mía,
porque es de cajón
que algo tiene que haber.
Llámalo equis,
me parece bien.
Llámalo energía,
mejor todavía
¿Y los curas?
esos ni en pintura
¿Y el tarot, y la astrología?
me los hice ayer en la peluquería
¿Y el dinero?
el único Dios verdadero
¿Y Lutero y Buda y Mahoma?
con su pan se lo coman
¿Y qué opinas del Papa de Roma?
ese… un particular.
¿Pero a ti qué te voy a contar?
Fíjate que yo,
sin ser socialista
de las de carné
y hasta aquí del GAL
y de la corrupción,
que sí, que existió,
una mala gripe
que había que pasar,
pero te decía, como mi Felipe
pa mí que no hay dos,
y si no, tú misma,
porque el del bigote
no tiene carisma,
Como te digo una “co” te digo la “o”...

1972 fire in Bishop Eton monastery roof, Woolton Rd Liverpool 18. The box on the roof of the appliance is a Hi-Ex foam applicator used for when the booms are extended. All Liverpool PHP's were fitted accordingly.This PHP was from Canning Place.
This cottage was apparently built by Henry Hersey (1795-1866) and his son, also Henry (1827-1893), possibly c. 1860, one of several in the area which were built by them. The Herseys were carpenters and bought sections 815 and 1116 prior to the 1860s, building a row of two-roomed cottages which were let for 3 shillings a week. Two larger, four-roomed cottages remain: this property and a house of the corner of Schulze and Gorge Road on section 1116.
In 1860 the cottage was the scene of a crime:
Adolph C. A. Herse was indicted for stealing 28 bunches of onions, value 2s., the property of his master, Henry Hersey, jun., at the Fifth Creek, on the 14th August last.
The prisoner had been in the employment of the prosecutor, who is a market gardener, at the Fifth Creek, and on the day named visited the sleeping apartment of the prisoner, a stable detached from the prosecutor's residence, and there, under the bed, discovered 28 bunches of onions. The prosecutor then, with a person named Sanders, put themselves in ambush to watch the proceedings of the prisoner, to see what he would do with the onions; but neither of them being able to detect the prisoner go into the stable again or leave it, both of them, after being on the look-out for several hours, returned to the prisoner's bed, but found the onions gone. On being spoken to the next day some words passed between prisoner and prosecutor, and those words the prosecutor construed into an admission of the prisoner that he took the onions.
The prosecutor, to-day, said that when he first saw the prisoner the next morning, he said to him, "How about the onions?" which at first he denied having taken, but afterwards admitted to have have taken them for the purpose of giving to a poor fellow out of work, lately in the employ of the Waterworks Commissioner, and which he had given him to sell for himself. When he first made the admission he said they were damaged, and that he had thrown them in the creek, and then went to the creek and brought some rotten ones which he (prosecutor) told him were not the same he had seen under the bed. In answer to His Honor, the prosecutor confessed he could not distinctly remember the exact replies the prisoner made to him when he questioned him about the onions.
John Sanders gave evidence of the interview between the prosecutor and prisoner. He confirmed the prosecutor's evidence that he only asked the prisoner "how about the onions?" He did not hear him charge the prisoner with stealing them.
The prisoner handed in a written defence, stating that he took the onions to give to a poor man, and that when his master found it out, he said he would forgive him if he would remain and work, which he did for several days after, and then wishing to get paid his wages, he asked for them, which the prosecutor refused to give. He then went to a lawyer to get his wages for him, who sent a letter to his master demanding them, and as soon as he received the letter, he went and laid the information against him. The statement added that the prosecution was only instituted to keep the prisoner out of his wages.
His Honor summed up, directing the Jury that the taking had been proved, and, therefore, the only question for their consideration was, whether the onions were taken with the intention to steal; and upon that question the must important part of the evidence was, that the next morning, when the prosecutor spoke to the prisoner, he did not tell him he had stolen the onions; but only asked "how about them?" shewing that - at that time, even the prosecutor did not think they were stolen. It would have been a very different matter altogether, said His Honor, if the prosecutor had said to the prisoner, "You have stolen my onions;" then any answers made by the prisoner to that charge, amounting to a confession, could be received as an admission of his guilt; but he thought both the conduct of the prisoner and the prosecutor did not amount to a supposition that the prisoner intended to steal. There was no doubt the prisoner took the onions, and it appeared he gave his master's property away to a man out of a work of charity, which he had no right to do, but that fact militated against the supposition that he intended to steal them from his master.
The Jury acquitted the prisoner.
De nuevo en mi tierra. De nuevo en Iquique. Mis últimos días en la ciudad que me vio nacer. Se siente raro armar las cajas con lo que me voy a llevar a Santiago. Recuerdos y cosas que pasan por la mente. Una sensación nueva de nostalgia, pero el optimismo y los sueños son mas grandes. La nueva vida se abre frente a mi. Nuevas experiencias, nuevas relaciones me esperan allá. Me esperas tu?
_________________________________________________________________
Back in my hometown. Back in Iquique. My last days in the city that watched me born. It feels strange to fill some boxes with the stuff I’m taking to Santiago. Memories and things come to my mind. A new nostalgic sensation, but optimism and dreams are higher. A whole new life’s in front of me. New experiences, new relationships wait for me there. Are you waiting for me?
en la espera~
Wish you were ... here ♫

Uno de los tantos recuerdos de Méjico
La canción Regina esta inspirada en el libro de Antonio Velazco Piña en el cual ofrece un testimonio de la huella física, mental y espiritual que marcó para Méjico el movimiento estudiantil de 1968, cuyo acontecimiento sigue siendo recordado con especial admiración y profundo respeto
Este disco en su estado original esta hecho en una hoja de oro repujado. En la escena aparecen, una cara con una nariz bulbosa emergiendo del pico de un Aguila la cual mira hacia abajo donde se encuentra su víctima. Esta figura rapaz en conjunto con el monstruo del inframundo. En la parte inferior demuestran similitud con elementos de estructuras posteriores en Chichen Itza como el templo de los Guerreros.
El captivo victimado viste un penacho de plumas y tambien tiene bigote y una nariguera en forma de barra (probablemente de Jade) y en su desformación craneal se nota claramente su identidad Maya.
Este disco conmemora el suceso de la caída de los Mayas ante el pueblo invasor Tolteca, ó guerreros Aguila, quienes despues de varias intervenciones bélicas lograron conquistar a los Mayas unos siglos antes de la llegada Española.
esta es una réplica de este disco, esta tallada a mano sobre piedra caliza de la zona, por el artista Gilberto Silva, una verdadera obra de arte, tambien tengo por este mismo artista la tapa del sarcófago del Templo de las Inscripciones de Palenque Chiapas.
This is a Cast Stone from Gilberto Silva is made of limestone, hand craved, the original is a Gold Disc, is made of a sheet gold that is hammered, and embossed. Here is a warrior with a long bulbous nose emerging from a warrior eagle looks down upon its victim. This raptoral figure and the frontal earth monster below resemble elements on later structure at Chichen-Itza like the temple of the warriors. The victim wears a feathered back dress and even though he has a mustache and a nose bar his reduced forehead and nose structure clearly identify him as Maya. it is significant that the face and eye of the victim were cut through in the destruction of the disc, and the eagle warrior left intact. Perhaps this was used as a charm in a ritual to bring victory to the toltec in their conquest of Chichen-Itza. After being recontructed it was thrown into the sacred well of sacrifice as an offering to the gods to bring victory in the downfall of the maya at Chichen-Itza
The Scene represents the fall of the Maya civilization in the hands of the Toltec culture, originatingat Tula in Central Méjico and coming down through Tabasco. These same people captured the city of Mayapan in Northern Yucatan. They were called Toltec ...meaning "Foreigner"
Please give me your feedback as to whether you prefer this version or the other. I used a vintage photo action in CS2 and followed that with some curves adjustments.
