flickr sperrt uns aus! Und auch dich!
Seit kurzem werden für deutsche Nutzer keine Bilder mehr angezeigt, die als 'moderate' oder 'restricted' markiert sind! Es gibt keine Moeglichkeit das umzustellen - das ist eine grobe Unverschämtheit und Frechheit von flickr!
In English:
If your Yahoo! ID is based in Singapore, Germany, Hong Kong or Korea you will only be able to view safe content based on your local Terms of Service so won’t be able to turn SafeSearch off.
In other words that means, that German users can not access photos on flickr that are not flaged "safe" ... only flowers and landscapes for the germans ...
We will not let this happen! Copy and upload this picture to your account - show flickr who we are!

According to this group of protesters, who chose not to identify themselves, 'God hates homosexuals'. Appearing with their signage, a soap-box, and a megaphone they attempted to distract the large crowd who, with their backs turned towards them, were busy watching the Gay Pride Parade on Market Street in downtown San Francisco. I saw a few heads turn but, for the most part, the parade was a lot more interesting.
This group may be part of the WBC (Westboro Baptist Church) of Topeka, Kansas. Established in 1955 by Pastor Fred Phelps, the WBC engages in sidewalk demonstrations opposing the homosexual lifestyle of, what they proclaim is, 'soul-damning, nation-destroying filth' (see www.godhatesfags.com).
One guy in the crowd was keeping up a banter with Mr. Soap-Box. From the pink triangle on the back of his tee-shirt, I would assume that he is a 'Friend of the Pink Triangle', a small group of volunteers in San Francisco who annually construct a gigantic pink triangle on Twin Peaks as a visible yet mute reminder of man's inhumanity to man. The pink triangle was a symbol used by the Nazis in concentration camps to identify and shame homosexuals. That same symbol is now embraced by the gay community as a symbol of pride.

Chicago, IL February 3, 1969: Trick or Treat: It's not Halloween but the girls occupying the administration building at the University of Chicago had their faces painted anyway. A female student is seen standing on the ledge of the second story of the Administration building at the University of Chicago, Monday, in protest against the firing of teacher Marlene Dixon. The student sit-in was entering it's fifth day after several hundred students decided on Thursday that "the halls belong to the students" and began the sit-in. They also debated whether or not to take over Cobb Hall, which is located next to the occupied administration building, in order to hold "liberation classes". The sit-in remains the single most important topic on campus. Business School students, who have voted their disapproval of the tactics, never-the-less, voted 52 to 43 in favor of amnesty for students in the building. The liberal Chicago Maroon student newspaper did however print an unsigned editorial asking students to leave the building.

One of the fur protestors, looks like she does not want to be recognized!
Their banner says:

I am usually in Grafton Street on a Sunday, these were taken Saturday, instead of the usual selection of buskers, it was more political than usual with an anti fur protest outside Brown Thomas' (an very exclusive shop, like Harrods in London) and a Falun Gong gathering campaigning for the release of Fang Yang.

On Tuesday April 7,2009, Ottawa found itself with a grid lock in the downtown core. Key streets and intersections were blocked by protestors carrying signs and flags we did not understand. The protests continue, now with only Wellington Street which runs in front of Parliament Hill blocked off. Curiosity had the best of me yesterday, so I altered my walk to the office to snap a few pictures.
At the link is a very comprehensive article by The MacKenzie Institute, a well respected think tank, that helped enlighten me. It's quite fascinating.
