I've been meaning to tell you

I've got this feelin' that won't subside

I look at you and I fantasize

You're mine tonight

Now I've got you in my sights

 

With these hungry eyes

One look at you and I can't disguise

I've got hungry eyes

I feel the magic between you and I

 

I wanna hold you so hear me out

I wanna show you what love's all about

Darlin' tonight

Now I've got you in my sights

 

With these hungry eyes

One look at you and I can't disguise

I've got hungry eyes

I feel the magic between you and I

I've got hungry eyes

Now I've got you in my sights

With those hungry eyes

Now did I take you by surprise

 

I need you to see

This love was meant to be

 

[SOLO]

 

I've got hungry eyes

One look at you and I can't disguise

I've got hungry eyes

I feel the magic between you and I

I've got hungry eyes

Now I've got you in my sights

With those hungry eyes

Now did I take you by surprise

With my hungry eyes

I need...

Hungry eyes

Now I've got you in my sights

With my hungry eyes

I don't know the name of this plant. In the base it seems an Aloe or Agave, and the flowers are in a long an d branched stem that it emerges from the center of the plant. Finally identified as Phormiun tenax (or P. cookianum) thanks to hortulus.

 

No conozco el nombre de esta planta. En la base parece un Aloe o un Agave, y las flores están en un tallo largo ramificado que sale del centro de la planta. Finalmente identificada como Phormiun tenax (o P. cookianum) gracias a hortulus.

 

ENGLISH

New Zealand flax describes common New Zealand perennial plants Phormium tenax and Phormium cookianum, known by the Māori names harakeke and wharariki respectively. They are quite distinct from the Northern Hemisphere plant known as flax (Linum usitatissimum), but the genus was given the common name 'flax' by Anglophone Europeans as it too could be used for its fibres.

 

New Zealand flax produces long leaf fibres that have played an important role in the culture, history, and economy of New Zealand. Phormium tenax occurs naturally in New Zealand and Norfolk Island, while Phormium cookianum is endemic to New Zealand. Both species have been widely distributed to temperate regions of the world as economic fibre and ornamental plants.

 

The naturalist Jacques Labillardière collected indigenous flax plants when French ships visited the far north of the North Island of New Zealand in 1793. He had noted the many uses the Māori had put to the plant and in 1803 gave it the scientific name Phormium, meaning "basket" or "wickerwork", and tenax meaning "tenacity" or "holding fast".

 

Phormium tenax is found mainly in swamps or low lying areas but will grow just about anywhere and is also much propagated in gardens as an evergreen decorative plant, both in New Zealand and now worldwide. Phormium tenax is an herbaceous perennial monocot. Monocot classification has undergone significant revision in the past decade, and recent classification systems (including the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group) have found Phormium tenax to be closely related to daylilies (Hemerocallis). Phormium tenax formerly belonged to the family Agavaceae and many classification systems still place it there.

CASTELLANO

El lino de Nueva Zelanda es el nombre común de las plantas perennes de Nueva Zelanda Phormium tenax y Phormium cookianum, conocidas en idioma maorí como harakeke y wharariki respectivamente. Son bien distintas de la sp. del Hemisferio norte lino (Linum sp.).

 

El lino de Nueva Zelanda produce fibras largas que han sido muy importantes en la cultura, historia, y la economía de Nueva Zelanda. Phormium tenax es nativa de Nueva Zelanda y de la Isla Norfolk, mientras que Phormium cookianum es endémica de Nueva Zelanda. Ambas especies están ampliamente distribuidas en regiones templadas del mundo como fibra comercial y planta ornamental.

 

Phormium tenax se encuentra en pantanos y áreas bajas, pero crece en cualquier lugar y aparece mucho propagada en jardines como planta decorativa siempreverde, en Nueva Zelanda y luego mundialmente.

 

Phormium tenax es una herbácea perenne monocots. La clasificación Monocot ha tenido significativa revisión en la pasada década, y recientes sistemas de clasificación (incluyendo el APG) encontró que Phormium tenax está estrechamente emparentada con los lirios Hemerocallis. Phormium tenax sigue en la familia Agavaceae y continúa en muchos sistemas de clasificación.

Just another example of my previous frustration of not having a camera while walking the dogs. Saturday and Sunday mornings.....those two dogs of mine, know exactly which day of the week it is and they are bouncing off the walls with excitement, demanding to go for their long walk in the woods. Up until last weekend I've left my camera at home knowing that the hassles of walking dogs and trying to get pictures outweigh the photo opportunity. But I think I've found a work around. Check out my last post. I got up this morning to go to work, and all my two dogs were interested in was finding their beds in front of the fireplace, after they followed me out of the bedroom. They knew it was Monday! If it was a weekend day, and I left without them, they would pitch a fit and wake Sassy up, as she's trying to enjoy her weekend sleep in. Nothing to come home to.....if you know what I mean. So to be able to take the dogs for a walk on the weekends and get shots like this while walking the dogs is a step up for me.

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me dió dos luceros, que cuando los abro

Perfecto distingo, lo negro del blanco

Y en el alto cielo, su fondo estrellado

Y en las multitudes, el hombre que yo amo

 

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me ha dado el oído, que en todo su ancho

Graba noche y día, grillos y canarios

Martillos, turbinas, ladridos, chubascos

Y la voz tan tierna, de mi bien amado

 

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me ha dado el sonido, y el abecedario

Con el las palabras, que pienso y declaro

Madre, amigo, hermano y luz alumbrando

La ruta del alma del que estoy amando

 

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me ha dado la marcha, de mis pies cansados

Con ellos anduve, ciudades y charcos

Playas y desiertos, montañas y llanos

Y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio

 

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me dió el corazón, que agita su marco

Cuando miro el fruto del cerebro humano

Cuando miro el bueno tan lejos del malo

Cuando miro el fondo de tus ojos claros

 

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto

Me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto

Así yo distingo dicha de quebranto

Los dos materiales que forman mi canto

Y el canto de ustedes, que es el mismo canto

Y el canto de todos, que es mi propio canto

Y el canto de ustedes, que es mi propio canto.

Tragedy at Six Bells

By David John Withers, Brynmawr

 

My father worked in the colliery all his life and I sort of followed him into the pit. I went to work in Six Bells Colliery at 17 years of age.

 

When I first went on the 0.18 coal face as a collier's helper I was introduced to my 'batty' Reggie Poe who showed me the tools we were using and two chalk marks 15 yards apart on the coal face. This was our working place, 15 yards long by 4-foot-6 deep by 5 feet high. I thought 'bloody hell' - it seemed a huge amount of coal to shift.

 

Although the other coal faces in our district were more modern with hydraulic roof supports, we were still using the older friction posts and linked bars. I've still got the scars where one of the bars came down on me!

 

We had quite a few problems with gas on the 0.18 coal face and the dust was killing. At times the conveyor would start up and you couldn't see each other until the dust settled down.

 

As boys we often refused to go onto the face because of the amounts of dust there - being youngsters we stuck together even when the officials threatened to send us home. It wasn't much of a threat as I was only earning about £6 odd!

 

I had been working about two years when the explosion happened. I was working on the 0.18 face at Six Bells on the 'turning shift' and arrived at the colliery on the bus to see the place in turmoil and heard that an explosion had happened. As the explosion had occurred at our place of work, we offered to go down and help as we knew the place, but the Rescue Brigade had it under control and wouldn't let us go down.

 

It's hard to say my feelings about it all. We knew there was gas there and they said a spark had set it off. I had mostly enjoyed the colliery up to then. I remember four of the men who died - I used to give them snuff with powdered bark mixed in as a joke - there was a good spirit amongst the men at the pit.

 

Once the explosion had happened it put me off. I finished and I put my notice in soon after. I was too young to lose my life in the colliery. If I had been working the day shift that week it would have been me. The explosion opened my eyes to the dangers and I went into the construction industry instead - I was always good with my hands. The pit made me grow up.

         

The deaths of 45 men killed 50 years ago in a colliery explosion have been remembered with a service at the site.

 

A gas explosion ripped through the Six Bells colliery near Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent at 10.45am on 28 June 1960.

 

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, led a service of remembrance at the site.

 

He also unveiled a memorial to the tragedy, a 20m high sculpture of a miner by Sebastian Boyesen.

una de piratas

 

Todos los piratas tienen

un temible bergantín,

con diez cañones por banda

y medio plano de un botín

que enterraron en la orilla

de una playa en las Antillas.

 

Todos los piratas tienen

un lorito que habla en francés,

al que relatan el glosario

de una historia que no es

la que cuentan del corsario.

Ni tampoco lo contrario.

 

Por un quitame esas pajas te pasan por la quilla.

Pero en el fondo son unos sentimentales

que se graban en la piel

a la reina del burdel

y se la llevan puesta a recorrer los mares.

 

Marchando una de piratas...

Larga vida y gloria eterna.

Para hincarles de rodillas

hay que cortarles las piernas.

 

Todos los piratas tienen

atropellos que aclarar,

deudas pendientes y asuntos

de los que mejor no hablar.

Se beben la vida de un trago

y se rien con descaro.

 

Hasta que un día, temblando

en la popa de un velero,

la encuentran, y traicionando

la ley del filibustero,

no reclaman el rescate

y rehuyen el combate.

Cuando los piratas son hombres enamorados

de una piel que huele a jazmines, rompen promesas

con sus hermanos del ayer

y huyen al amanecer

rumbo a un puerto que aún no ha puesto precio a su cabeza.

 

Marchando una de piratas ...

Nadie doblegó su espada

y bastó una mujer hermosa

para cortarles las alas.

 

No hay historia de piratas

que tenga un final feliz.

Ni ellos ni la censura

lo podían permitir.

Por la espalda, en una esquina,

gente a sueldo los asesina.

... my wish for baby noah. being born on a very monumental day in our lives, in our time, i can't help but think as to where these feet will take him and the things he will see when he gets there. for two days, i've been weepy, tears come unexpectedly at random times and as i sit here and listen to all of the coverage of this monumental election, tears are flowing. i sit and reflect on the words of mccain and the acceptance speech of senator obama and i think of the change that this nation is about to face and i pray, i PRAY that this young man sees us operate on the ideas that our founding fathers meant for us to use as a nation to stand tall, strong and hopeful. the ideas that allow us to set our goals and obtain them, to be proud as a country and prosper and to BE a part of change. baby noah, for you i pray tonight. i pray for you to always have the liberties and the freedoms that, since 1776, our great country has been able to provide. i pray that you live through change that brings pride back to the elders of our country by doing what we can to take care of them and that you embrace all that YOU have been blessed with by being born a citizen of our great United States of America. for you, baby noah, i pray that you forever walk in peace.

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.

Port Botany is a major commercial area that is serviced by road and rail networks, together with Sydney's nearby international and domestic airports. The two Container Terminal facilities are complemented by a bulk liquids facility and an adjacent bulk liquids storage and distribution complex.

 

For those interested, Botany Bay is where Captain James Cook first landed on 29 April 1770, when navigating his way around Australia on his ship, the Endeavour. The ship's English botanist Joseph Banks and Swedish assistant botanist Daniel Solander, spent several days on shore collecting vast numbers of specimens, that were previously unknown. Cook's journals first referred to the bay as Sting Rays' Harbour, then later Botanist Bay and finally both these names were crossed out and replaced with Botany Bay. The suburb name comes from the bay it stands on.

 

There ya go, you learn something new every day

 

Enjoy ;-)

Pannenhoef bos

  

Korte beschrijving

Van de veertiende tot de zeventiende eeuw werd in dit deel van Brabant de hele laag hoogveen afgegraven tot de zandondergrond. Er ontwikkelde zich moerasheide waar weinigen een bestaansgrond vonden. Vanaf 1800 werden de onafzienbare heidevelden geleidelijk ontgonnen tot cultuurland en bos. Van 1900 tot 1940 verhevigde de ontginningsintensiteit. In het kader van de werkverschaffing werden de vennen en overige lage delen opgehoogd met zand van hoge koppen als de Lokkerberg.

 

Door het verbreden en verdiepen van het beekje de Bijloop werd het gebied ontwaterd. Op de drooggevallen venbodem van De Lokker ontwikkelde zich natte heide, rietland, gagelstruweel en moerasbos van wilgen, elzen en berken. Door het plaatsen van stuwen in de Bijloop steeg het waterpeil van deze beek aanzienlijk. De kalk- en ijzerrijke kwel van de hogere gronden werd niet langer door de beek 'weggevangen'. Het verzuurde moeras van De Lokker werd er weer mee gevoed, wat zorgde voor een herstel van de amfibienstand en een uitbreiding van planten als wateraardbei, moeraswederik en moerasviooltje. Sinds enkele jaren vliegen er weer weide- en bosbeekjuffers boven de Bijloop. Zomertaling, blauwborst, waterral en roodborsttapuit broeden er.

 

Toen Brabants landschap het landgoed in 1970 kon verwerven, was nog maar circa 100 hectare woeste grond over. Door geleidelijk aan landbouwgronden uit de pacht te nemen, konden wij vanaf 1995 verscheidene verdwenen vennen opnieuw uitgraven. De afgelopen 12 jaar zijn maar liefst 11 vennen uit de dood herrezen. Vele zeldzame planten keerden weer terug uit de ondergrondse zaadbank: blauwe knoop, teer guichelheil, moerashertshooi, heidekartelblad en pilvaren zijn slechts enkele voorbeelden.

 

Om de bijzondere plantengroei blijvend te behouden wordt er kleinschalig geplagd en begrazen Schotse hooglanders en laaglanders (Galloways) en IJslandse pony's het gebied het jaar rond. Boven de hernieuwde vennen vliegen veel libellen, waaronder bloedrode en bruinrode heidelibel. Typische heidebewoners als levendbarende hagedis, heideblauwtje en bont dikkopje kunnen weer migreren en hun populaties voorzien van 'vers bloed'.

 

Het hoge, droge deel van de Pannenhoef bestaat grotendeels uit bos dat qua soortensamenstelling en leeftijdsopbouw gevarieerd is en veel dood hout kent. Dat vertaalt zich in een hoge broeddichtheid van zangvogels en spechten.

 

Het open weidegebied het Rondgors moet een verbindingsschakel worden tussen de Pannenhoef en de Vloeiweide. Bij piekafvoeren krijgt het tevens een waterbergingsfunctie. De voormalige gemeentebossen van Etten-Leur vormen een belangrijke droge verbindingsschakel tussen beide landgoederen.

Observatory Avenue terminates in the heart of Ault Park - the fourth largest park in Cincinnati with its 223.949 acres.

 

Providing picnic facilities, nature trails, and children's play areas, Ault Park adds to its attractions with a splendid Pavilion and lookout point and beautiful gardens.

 

The Pavilion, dedicated in 1930 with ceremonies arranged by the Mount Lookout Civic Club and other organizations in Cincinnati's East End, has an entrance consisting of a broad, double flight of steps, between which flows a water cascade. At the top of the steps you see the Pavilion's artistic columns outlined against the sky. From the Lookout on the Pavilion roof you can enjoy a 360 degree view - many miles of changing vistas in all directions. You can spot, also, from the Lookout, the Little Miami River flowing in its broad valley where once flowed the Ohio River itself in the pre-glacial age. Ault Park, like Alms, was once a vineyard area.

 

Ault Park is named in memory of Ida May Ault and Levi Addison Ault, her husband, a former Park Commissioner who was prominently active in Cincinnati Parks development. The initial 142-acre tract in 1911 and 9 subsequent acquisitions were gifts of the Aults to the City of Cincinnati. Two other fractional-acreage tracts were given by W.E. Harmon and Paul C. Kunkel and others.

  

A Manila tambol aparador / armoire

 

Estimate: PHP 1,200,000 - 1,300,000

 

2nd Quarter, 19th century

Manila

Narra and kamagong wood, bone, kamagong and lanite inlays, silver mounts

196 x 125 x 51.5 cm (77 x 49 x 20 in)

 

Kamagong wood was very scarce and expensive even over 170 years ago. Artisans would combine it with narra wood not only for those restrictive reasons but also to create an attractive and contrasting color effect. Originally made in Manila, this style subsequently spawned several variations – from Bulacan and Ilocos in the north to Laguna in the south – each with vernacular modifications. However, only the wealthiest who could afford such luxury furniture had them in their homes.

 

Classical Greek, Roman and Egyptian motifs are clearly evident, aside from the contrasting wood color of the dark kamagong frame and honey-brown narra centers that became de rigueur again in the early 19th century. The top frieze is inlaid on three sides, with scrolling leaves and flowers centering a large honeysuckle flower. The effect of using big-sized and light brown-colored lanite inlays against dark kamagong background is reminiscent of the oyster veneer, a decorative technique popular in England in the 17th century. The half-round pilaster columns, inlaid border inlays on the doors, the large foliated flower on the beaded apron, and the lotiform feet have been masterly executed. Opening the doors with turned kamagong pulls with silver centers and a spade-shaped silver escutcheon reveals four shelves and four drawers with knob pulls. This type of aparador remains scarce and highly desirable.

Finally! This has been delayed a good 4 weeks but it is finally here.

 

Quite a few weeks ago we put an order in for a new car for my wife. It was originally due in mid-May but there was a delay and the ship finally berthed in 9th June and tonight we got our hands on it.

 

It could not come soon enough to be honest, her old car was barely going to make it for the trade in. Seriously in the past 10 days things were breaking, we don't even have working door handles on that car anymore! The plastic on the driver side door handle broke and the only way to get in the car was to leave a window open wide enough to stick our arm in.

 

I duly informed the dealer that yes, it is broken, and yes, I understand they will take some money off the pittance of a trade in value. We had about 2 or 3 separate conversations about that, and when we got there tonight, they didn't mention it so I kind of "forgot" to mention it too. :)

 

So today I thought to commemorate getting rid of the wife's old bomb and getting this brand new chariot, a funky shot is appropriate. And oh yeah, here's to being in debt for a long time!

Location: The ranch is located along the Canadian River in the western Texas Panhandle.

 

Acres: 71,059 Acres, more or less

 

Terrain: Approximately 29 miles of the Canadian River runs through the middle of this scenic ranch. The topography varies from rolling uplands to elevated mesa points descending to wide river bottom country. This is truly a beautiful ranching property.

 

Water: The ranch is exceptionally well watered by the Canadian River, numerous creeks and springs, water wells and earthen ponds.

 

Improvements: The Canadian River Cattle Company Ranch is considered to be exceptionally well improved. The main lodge has over 7,000 square feet and features 6 bedrooms, 6 and 1/2 baths, and a rustic trophy/game room. Other improvements include pilot's quarters, hand houses, a manager's house, barns, pens, etc. All improvements are very well maintained.

 

Access: Access is provided by a graded road to the southeast corner of the property. There is no public access through the ranch, and the front gate can be locked to assure privacy. For the convenience of the owner, a 4,500' paved landing strip and airplane hanger are located adjacent to the main lodge.

 

Hunting/Recreation: The Canadian River Cattle Company offers some of the best hunting to be found in this area of Texas. Recently, two state record mule deer have been harvested, and numerous other trophy quality mule deer were taken from this ranch, but not entered in the Texas Big Game Awards Contest. The ranch also offers quality whitetail deer, antelope, turkey, quail and waterfowl.

 

In recent years, elk, lion, and bear have also been sighted on the ranch. Without question, this game is following the Canadian River Corridor, which is a major travel route for wildlife.

 

Price: $475.00 per acre

 

Remarks: The seller will convey all of his mineral and water right interest. This is one of the most productive, scenic, large blocks of real estate to come on the market in recent years.

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.

Traveling smack-dab into the middle of the Norinaga/Rebel war.. the awkwardness is immediate.. as the guys charge in full Samurai armor on war horses at the Rebel's direction.

 

Poor Mikey has it the worse.. as the time jump sets him in the saddle of the Guard's horse backwards into battle.. and even sends the horse off with Mikey ..leaving the 3 other brothers to fend for themselves until they are reunited later.

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.

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.

Leven onder de as van de vulkaan, dag in, dag uit... alle hotels zijn leeg en verwoest. De stad lijkt heel hallucinant. Ook de huizen zitten onder de as. Nog één hotel blijft met staats-steun open voor de enkele verdwaalde toeristen. De lokale bevolking is erg uitgedund. Alleen heel arme mensen zijn genoodzaakt om te blijven wonen. Aan ons hotel is er elke dag een ploeg paraat om de as weg te scheppen, een heel ongezond werk. De as is heel zacht en voelt aan als losse zachte poeder. Er valt voortdurend as uit de lucht en na enkele uren zit je onder het stof. Veel mensen lopen voortdurend met een masker voor de mond, om de longen te beschermen. De rode tong en tanden bij veel mensen wordt veroorzaakt door het kauwen van 'betelnut'. Een mengsel van mosterdzaadjes, kalk en beetlenoot.

  

De Tavurvur is een actieve stratovulkaan nabij de Papoea-Nieuw-Guineaanse stad Rabaul op de noordoostelijke punt van het eiland Nieuw-Brittannië. Het vormt het meest actieve onderdeel de Rabaulcaldera (8 bij 14 km), waarbinnen het gelegen is aan de oostelijke rand. De vulkaan is binnen de stad Rabaul berucht om de vele verwoestende uitbarstingen.

Tavurvur is an active stratovolcano near Rabaul in East New Britain province, Papua New Guinea. It is a sub-vent of the Rabaul caldera and lies on the eastern rim of the larger feature. The volcano is most well known for its devastating eruptions over Rabaul.

The volcano is the most active feature of the Rabaul caldera, and has erupted as recently as January 2009

The theme for The Rogue Players group today is Politics. Now, I don't take a stand about too much politically because I feel that most things are so muddied that it doesn't seem to matter what I think...if I can even figure out what I think...about the topic.

 

However, one area that I will forever take a stand on is gender equality. So this is my political pinch to remind all of my favorite flickr ladies how far we've come and how far we still have to go.

The photo of the 1934 Chevy truck pictured on the right was taken by my wife's brother, Lem, in 1950. It was backed up to what was to become the foundation of another chicken house, which they built themselves on their poultry farm in the Berkshires in western Massachusetts, a family farm which, at its peak, worked 10,000 chickens. In those days, their chickens were free-range (what we refer to today as "organic"), except in the winter time, when they were kept warm and comfy in the houses. By the way, my wife Sammy learned to drive this old truck when she was only seven years old (that was in 1942). She had to. All four members of the family (#s 5 and 6 weren't born yet) had to chip in and share the work, and when it came time to do the haying, she was propped up, standing behind the steering wheel with a few burlap sacks stuffed with hay piled on the seat behind her for support, as she followed along with her father and older brother, Lem, while they pitched the mowed hay into the truck bed. She also often drove the truck while dragging a feeder behind her through the fields during the summer time when many of the chickens were roaming free. The "retired" truck in the left photo is not the same truck, though it is the same year and make. I converted it to B&W from a color image that Lem sent me.

I'm so bored and sick of life right now. It feels like I am just living day to day to one day die. Nothing exciting happens in my life. I know I'm to blame for not making anything happen, but I'm in a rut. My mouth is killing me. I hate my hair right now, I want to cut it and color it, but I'm to cheap and feel like I've been spending too much money lately. I want to lose weight and be skinny and cute again, but there is absolutely no motivation to do anything about it. So I just sit here looking like a fat ugly ass, hating myself for being fat and ugly. I want to wear cute clothes and little tight jeans again. Or shirts without sleeves when it's hot. i brought my bike into the house so I could look at it and it would motivate me. I got used to it sitting there by the door, and started hanging things on it. I finally moved it to the garage. I feel tired all the time. I get plenty of sleep at night, but I'm so tired and my eyes are falling by like 4pm. So, I nap for a little. Then I stay up until past 2am. My house is so cluttered and messy, but it takes everything in me to just dust and vacuum. We eat out every single night, except when I get all crazy and will cook for like a week straight. I want to cook dinner every night, but I hate going to the grocery store, and so I just avoid it and we eat out again and again. I just want to be like Martha Stewart except I am lazy and tired and bored and hate everything. I always have "big plans" but I never go through with anything, ever.

 

I'm just sick of myself, and I want to change me, but I have no idea where to even begin or how to do it. Plus, like I said I'm lazy, and even if I knew how to do it I would be to lazy to do it. Basically, I need to know how I become unlazy?

Espinita

 

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

Durante el montaje del espectáculo "13 años sin aceitunas" de la compañía El canto de la cabra en la sala La Nave en Aranjuez.

a couple of months ago i mentioned that at the end of last year i entered into a couple of online photo competitions. from the first competition my beach soccer shot was included in a list of 18 highly commended images. the other competition was the sony world photography awards, and again whilst i didn't win, i did get a commendation. i'm prouder of this as the competition seems more prestigious and the numbers are more flattering. there were over 50,000 entries in the open (non-professional) competition, and my los torres shot was included in the top 50 (or from my count 34) in the travel category. in addition the other shots are all very impressive, so it feels good to be in such attractive company. i received an email today asking for a higher resolution version, as it's also going to be included in the 2011 Sony World Photography Awards Winner's Book. again i'd have preferred the $5000 grand prize, but i'm happy enough with a page in a book.

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.

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.
