I had a previous post "View from Windy Hill Estate" that was shot at this same location. This is what is left of the estate built on top of Windy Hill. this image further paints the images I had in my head as I sat on the edge of this estate and overlooked the Caribbean sea below. Places like this are off the beaten track in st. John and a visit to them will make your trip. For more on this location be sure to go back and read my "View From Windy Hill Estate" post.

Matthiessen Bridge View on black.

 

I went up to Matthiessen State Park again yesterday - to see the park in the Spring - in all of it's flooded glory - and it didn't disappoint. I spent most of the day standing in cold water lugging around gear and could not have been happier.

 

I started just after sunrise at the south end of the Dells portion of the park - trying to get to the Wishing Well and the big falls there. The river, 10-15 feet in that valley last November, was at least 40 feet across now and three-to-four feet deep. It was slippery, muddy and very slow going. I think a small inflatable boat and a very watertight bag are going to have to be pursued for next spring.

 

This is the view from the long footbridge over the river, looking south.

The final stages of 'becoming a truffle' at the Lindt Chocolate Museum, Cologne, Germany.

 

The chocolate paste is poured into a section of a spherical mould with a pouring vessal and is then enclosed in the upper section. To ensure that no chocolate can escape from the closed mould it is secured in a vice. This vice is rotated on its axis in every direction on a centrifuge. This causes the chocolate paste to spread over the wall of the mould creating a uniform chocolate shell.

 

In the second stage, after cooling, the fledgling truffles receive their high quality filling. Finally the filling hole is sealed with chocolate. The truffle balls are then passed via a conveyor belt to a machine which coast them with chocolate. Finally, prior to the last cooling state, a counter-rotating wire mesh gives them their prickly texture.

Mount Hope Station (Outbound)

 

Blakemore and Florence Streets

Roslindale, Mass.

 

Year Built: 1884

Year Demolished: Unsure

Mount Hope Station was built in response to the sudden population growth in the Roslindale area in the late 19th century. While the Boston & Providence RR already had a 2-track right-of-way running through the Roslindale business districts southward to communities such as Needham and Dedham and to points south and west, Mount Hope Station was located on the newer 4-track main line running from Boston, Massachusetts to Providence, Rhode Island. As such it had popularity for travel in both directions.

 

The inbound side of Mount Hope Station was located at what is now Hyde Park Avenue at Blakemore, and the outbound side was located at and Florence at Blakemore (outbound). The outbound station constructed of stone and brick and the inbound building was constructed of wood. Its date of construction is unclear.

 

Sturgis and Brigham ordered a double-dial clock from the Howard Clock Co. in September, 1884, so it would appear that the outbound depot is the Sturgis & Brigham designed building.

 

The building has been demolished, but it is unclear when this occurred.

Listening Gothan Project - Santa Maria (Del Buen Ayre)

 

S: secondo me lui è stato all'altezza

 

me: dici?

 

S: sì, lo vedevo ben concentrato

 

me: appunto

aveva paura di sbagliare

 

S: uhm

 

me: anch'io avrei avuto paura...lei ha una faccia!

 

S: giusta osservazione

tu dici che dovrebbe venire più naturale, senza pensare?

 

me: sì, perchè se hai paura di un ostacolo stai sicuro che ci finisci irrimediabilmente dentro

 

S: uno psicologo una volta mi diceva che è proprio così

quando pensi adesso cado

cadi

 

me: già...è così.

 

S: e allora lei non dovrebbe avere il dito alzato

 

me: perchè?

 

S: perché parte dal presupposto di dover mettere sull'avviso, di guardare dal di fuori, in un certo di pre-giudicare

 

stai attento che cadi

e lui cade

 

me: già

se lo aspetta

 

S: caspita, troppo dramma dietro questa foto

 

me: il tango è dramma

 

S: ma anche passione

 

me: sì

 

S: e non chiuderei il sillogismo dicendo

passione = dramma

 

me: no

quello no

 

S: meno male

camminano fianco a fianco

forse è lì il problema

 

me: ?

 

S: se è dramma ma anche passione, vuol dire che i due sono vicini, si sfiorano e magari alla fine si toccano

non necessariamente

 

me: capito

 

S: insomma, adesso uno dei due deve dire una cosa che fa ridere!

 

me: ci pensi tu?

  

S:

 

oppure forse c'è un'altra soluzione per quel dito alzato

lei lo sa che lui sbaglia

lui lo fa quasi sempre, nonostante lei ogni volta alzi il dito

e lui si concentra ogni volta di più

ma non c'è niente da fare

succede

eppure lei ogni volta fa finta di arrabbiarsi, ma col sorriso

 

me: caspita!

 

S: anzi, quasi se lo aspetta quell'errore

tanto che se lui non lo facesse, lo guarderebbe quasi in modo diverso

ogni volta che tornano a ballare è come quella prima volta che lui ha invitato lei sebbene sapesse di non essere tanto bravo nel tango e lei quella volta, la prima, si era commossa

perchè aveva capito che sforzo gli era costato

mettersi in gioco pur sapendo di non essere bravissimo

solo per cercare di starle vicino

e a lei proprio quella cosa le era rimasta impressa

quella specie di piccolo fallimento orgoglioso

è così che poi si sono messi insieme, dopo

sudati e lui che aveva uno sguardo che tirava un po' di lato

consapevole del fallimento, ma senza abbassare del tutto gli occhi

e allora dopo uscendo, nel buio

si erano baciati."

Bon NAdal i pròsper 2010!!!

Merry Christmas and prosperous 2010!

Feliz Navidad y próspero 2010!

  

THE NAME OF CHRISTMAS

 

Under the name of Christmas

I feel something

I do not know exactly how I have to say.

It makes me think of a new land

where peace and love do not stop blooming ...

 

And no matter if the star was born

and points to the path

three kings from the East, crossing the sky ...

And it does not matter,

know if many shepherds were

carrying cheese and honey in the stable ...

And it does not matter,

see hanging rich brightness

here and there,

shown in joy ...

 

I feel that there is a big thing at the bottom of everything.

To define the word can not find any!

It must be a force to achieve

that there is on earth

any country without love

no home without bread!

The sweet name of Christmas gives us clues ...

If the power exists,

we must find!

 

Joana Raspall

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

EL NOMBRE DE NAVIDAD

 

Bajo el nombre de Navidad

siento algo

que yo no sé muy bien cómo tengo que decir.

Me hace pensar en una tierra nueva

donde paz y amor no paran de florecer ...

 

Y no importa, si surgió la estrella

y señala la ruta

a tres reyes de Oriente, cruzando el cielo ...

Y no importa,

saber si eran muchos los pastores

llevando queso y miel al Establecía ...

Y no importa,

ver que cuelgan ricas brillos

aquí y allá,

en muestra de alegría ...

 

Siento que hay algo grande, al fondo de todo.

Para definirla no encuentro ninguna palabra!

Debe ser una fuerza que conseguiría

que no haya en la tierra

ningún país sin amor

ni ningún hogar sin pan!

El dulce nombre de la Navidad nos da pistas ...

Si la fuerza existe,

debemos encontrar!

 

Joana Raspall

"Everybody sees it's you

I'm the one lost of you

Everybody says we're through

I hope you hadn't said it too

 

So where

Do we go from here

With all this fear in our eyes

And where

Can love take us now

We've been so far down

We can still touch the sky

 

If we crawl

Till we can walk again

Then we'll run

Until we're strong enough to jump

Then we'll fly

Until there is no wind

So lets crawl, crawl, crawl

Back to love, Yeah

Back to love, Yeah."

--"Crawl" by Chris Brown

There's nothing more exciting than being Twiggy dor the day!

 

I'm not that much into models or modeling, but if I had to pick my favourite model, it'd be for sure Twiggy.

 

So beutiful!! I think I started watching America's Next Top Model because I knew she was in it... She's awesome! Tyra Banks? I really don't like her... She's funny though (unintentionally haha).

 

So here's my best Twiggy look. Of course she didn't have such chubby cheeks, but I'm quite happy with the makeup and hair. This picture was supposed to be B&W because it's some kind of a recreation of my favourite picture of hers, but I just couldn't give up the colours on my eyes. Twiggy's lashes were painted, but I thought falsies would be fun!

Kinderdijk is the only place in the world where you'll find the largest concentration of operational windmills. There are nineteen windmills at Kinderdijk, and they were built between the years of 1500 and 1740. All specimens are well-preserved, and in 1997, the windmills were put on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

 

About the Kinderdijk Windmills:

More than half of the Netherlands is reclaimed land which lies under sea level, making the land prone to flooding. During the 13th century, periodic flooding became problematic, so canals were built to get rid of the excess water in the reclaimed land areas, called the Alblasserwald polders.

 

To keep flooding under control, the windmills at Kinderdijk were built to drain the excess water from the polders, and they would pump the excess water into a reservoir until level of the Lek River was lowered. However, in the 1860's the windmills could not cope with the amount of water coming into the polders, and as a result, pumping stations, powered by diesel fuel were set up, and the windmills were retired.

 

During World War II, diesel fuel became scarce, and it became difficult to operate the pumping stations, thus, the Kinderdijk windmills were brought out of retirement, and they were fully-operational until 1945, but were quickly closed down again when fuel became available. However, these noble windmills are not out of commission forever, as they can still be used in case of an emergency.

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.

Jillian Geurts trained in musical theatre and performance with The Fame Theatre Company from 1995-2005. During this time she performed many lead roles in various productions and toured Queensland three times. In 2004, upon discovering Zen Zen Zo's unique brand of physical theatre, she participated in their Youth Physical Actor Training for two years. Jillian was a member of the award-winning St Rita's College Showchoir for three years (2003-05) and in 2005 she won the senior section on the Toombul Time to Shine talent competition. In 2006 she performed in Children of the Black Skirt (St Rita's College) and as the lead role of Dorothy Brock in 42 Street (St Rita's College).

 

In 2007, Jillian undertook a gap-year in Europe, after which she returned to study film at Queensland University of Technology. Throughout 2008 she continued her training in Zen Zen Zo's adult classes, as well as training and studying Butoh dance-theatre. She worked on the front-of-house team for Zen Zen Zo's In the Raw production Zeitgeist and in late 2008 was accepted into the company's 2009 Internship group.

 

In March 2009, Jillian worked with Butoh master's Muramatsu Takuya and Yuyama Daiichiro during a three week creative development, culminating in the sold-out performance Gaia - The Dairakudakan Project. From this, she was selected for cast of Zeitgeist touring to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2009 and Adelaide Fringe 2010.

 

She performed the role of Miranda in Zen Zen Zo's production The Tempest, as well as assisted with the documentary charting the show's creation. In August this year, she will tour to Edinburgh to perform in Zen Zen Zo's tour of Zeitgeist.

E' nata una nuova Creatura Artistica: Filorosso - officina di teatro e delle arti espressive.

Vi aspettiamo per la partenza dei nuovi corsi teatrali e per iniziare insieme questa magnifica avventura artistica :-)

 

Il teatro è l’unione di tanti fili rossi…

grandi, piccoli…

fili intersecati gli uni negli altri…

fili che hanno vita, che creano movimenti, forme e colori nello spazio….

Il Filorosso nasconde in sé tanti significati …il coraggio, l’azione, la volontà, l’amore, il conflitto, la consapevolezza, l’inconscio, la forza, la rab...bia, la passione, i legami, il contatto, l’energia…

 

Avvicinarsi al teatro vuol dire andare a cercare, scoprire, guardare quel sottile filo rosso che ognuno di noi ha in sé…

…Filo che tiene unito tutto come mani intrecciate in un girotondo…

 

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

The Metropolitan City of Naples (Città metropolitana di Napoli) is an Italian Metropolitan City in Campania region, established on January 1, 2015. Its capital city is Naples ; within the city there are 92 comune (municipalities). It was first created by the reform of local authorities (Law 142/1990) and established by the Law 56/2014, thus replacing the Province of Naples in 2015. Source: en.wikipedia.org

Los diseños se van renovando y van desapareciendo con el tiempo porque se fabrican como series limitadas. Los Mimobots de Star Wars van por la quinta serie de personajes. Así que si ves uno que te gusta, no tardes mucho en hacerte con él! Tú eliges… que fuerza te acompañe.

"Always Tomorrow"

performed/written: Gloria Estefan

I've been alone inside myself far too long

I never really wanted it that way but I let it happen

If I could do it all again

My life would be

Infinitely better than before

I wouldn't waste a moment

Make time for laughing with my friends

Make love make music make amends

Try to make a difference

Try to love

Try to understand

Instead of just giving up

I'd use the power at my command

 

But there's always tomorrow

To start over again

Things will never stay the same

The only one sure thing is change

That's why there's always tomorrow

 

I guess it took a little time for me to see

The reason I was born into this world

and what I'd have to go through

Before I finally realize that I could be

Infinitely better than before, definitely stronger

 

I'll face whatever comes my way

Savor each moment of the day

Love as many people as I can along the way

Help someone who's given up

If its just to raise my eyes and pray

 

(chorus)

 

Before your last setting sun

And everything your heart has longed for

Has yet to be won

 

Yes there's always always always tomorrow

Though people come and they go

But if you've brought some love to their lives

Then you've got something to show

 

Always tomorrow

This dress is the ugliest dress I have ever bought. I liked the style but hated the pattern. Anyways, when I wore it....my aunt just loved it. I thought it was cute. She said it reminded her of a blouse she made with almost the same pattern. Just thought I'd share that with you.

So here we are :)

Today (not really "today" because i'm writing this description a day after the shot...) i explored the awesome set 1000 Faces of Eliza[beth] Grace (below you can find the links...) and i was so excited about her incredible shots that i wanted to do one like her.

This is Pam, after a little photo session in my bedroom :) She doesn't likes too much the usual "do this", "smile like this", "move", "try to be more expressive..." but this is what we got at the end of the session.

 

I'm very happy/proud of the result. I used a little lamp in total darkness to lighten up her face from right. What do you think of the shot?

 

This is a small tribute to Eliza[beth] Grace and to her incredible set 1000 Faces :)

The busy daily life at he borders of the Douro.

 

De Luis I-brug (Portugees: Ponte Dom Luís I) over de rivier Douro is een opvallende boogbrug in de Portugese stad Porto.

De brug is vernoemd naar koning Lodewijk I van Portugal (Dom Louís I, 1861 - 1889), die de brug in 1886 opende.

The Luís I Bridge (Ponte Luís I) is a metal arch bridge that spans the Douro River between the cities of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia in Portugal. At the time of construction its span of 172 m was the longest of its type in the world.

The Government held a competition for the construction of a metallic bridge over the Douro River on a site that was adjacent to an existing bridge and would replace it. Teófilo Seyrig had already engineered the D. Maria Pia Bridge project nearby, whilst working as a partner of Eiffel. He now took sole responsibility for the new, major Luís 1st Bridge. The construction was begun in 1881 and the bridge opened on 31 October 1886.

Total length 385.25 m

Weight 3045 tons

The arch measures 172 m in length and 44.6 m in height
