Update 2009-08-04 ~ ..to answer many of the questions coming to me by email: No, my father was not one of the 140 prisoners let go from Evin last week, nor is he one of the hundred or so reformists and opposition members currently being tried before a kangaroo court.

A very strange building in a little town in the Thuringian Forest. Built in 1925. With stars that look very Soviet. With a harp-playing woman and a man mask. A theatre? Which style?
Internet didn´t answer my questions. Even worse: I cannot remember the name of the town. Maybe, it was Neuhaus, but I am not sure.

Depuis plusieurs mois, je note chaque jour, ce que les experts nous disent sur une feuille de papier toilette. Je vais le faire pendant 365 jours et accrocher l'ensemble des 365 feuilles de papier toilette sur un mur avec une pointe.
Nous sommes inondés quotidiennement d'informations d'experts en tous genres dans tous les domaines. On ne peut plus allumer la télé, la radio, lire la presse magazine, faire une recherche sur internet sans être confronté à un moment donné à "L'AVIS DE L'EXPERT". Pas un jour, sans que les experts nous disent comment nous habiller, manger, décorer notre maison, quelle position sexuelle nous devons préférer...L'appétit insatiable des médias pour les «experts» entraîne nombre d'effets pervers. Il permet notamment de faire passer des opinions tranchées pour des avis neutres et objectifs. De plus, il y a parfois, derrière ces experts, des influences cachées (par exemple des marques, des lobbys pharmaceutiques), des égos qui ont besoin de reconnaissance, des loyautés importantes (envers la société qui les a si bien récompensés de leur obéissance en les
plaçant à des positions d'experts, par exemple).
Experts de tout et de rien qui s'arrogent le monopole de l'analyse sur certaines questions, ignorance de certains, experts à 23 ans pour d'autres, sans compter que nous voyons tout le temps les mêmes têtes d'experts (dans les émissions télé par exemple), les experts sont partout, tout le temps. Paradoxalement, parfois, les experts ne savent pas répondre à certaines questions auxquelles ils devraient savoir répondre puisqu'ils sont experts. Nous sommes tellement inondés des avis d'experts en tous genres au quotidien que selon moi, trop d'experts tuent l'expert.
My essential question is What is the cause of being friendly? I decided on this question by thinking of something that would show gratitude and kindness. My work attempts to answer my essential question by showing the two people helping each other, and there is meaning in the photos that explains friendliness. My other question that I considered was What is the result of friendliness. My final pieces are successful because they portray act of friendliness between two people.

Built in the XIV/XV century to commemorate the victory of the 6.000 men of the Portuguese army, against the 32.000 Spanish soldiers in one of their many invasion attempts, the Monastery of Batalha is the most glorious example of the Gothic architecture in Portugal.
The story tells that in the 1383-1385 crisis, when the Spanish army with their king was marching to Lisbon to claim the throne they encountered a small Portuguese army. Laughing of such small force they've decided to pass around because they didn't want to be delayed in their conquest. The Portuguese seeing that the only chance to keep the independence was to fight and win, started to insult the Spanish calling them cowards. It had its result as the Spanish decided to turn back to teach the Portuguese a lesson...
Right from the start the battle was a catastrophe to the Spanish. When their cavalry charged, the knights started to fall into the many traps built in the battle camp. Those who escaped reached the Portuguese army in a disordered formation and tried to pull back. But while some were trying to get back, large numbers of Spanish knights not understanding what was happening continued to charge and push all in their front against the Portuguese spears! More, the Portuguese army chose a very narrow space to fight and the long spears of the Spanish knights were not maneuverable, so they started to break them in half to make them shorter. The problem was that when the broken piece was thrown to the ground the horses tripped in them and fell...
Soon it became a catastrophe to the Spanish and their king was forced run to Spain barely escaping the Portuguese persecuting force. This victory kept Portugal safe for the next 200 years...
Several of you, on and off line, have asked me the question “how do I find the eagle nest so I can take photos". This is a valid question. And I have set and thought about how to answer all of you in the clearest kindest way that I can. In the past I have told a few people how to find the New Hope nest. I also asked these people to respect the eagles and their breeding territory. It has been acknowledged by scientists that during breeding season (here in central NC from December until mid May) that at the very least you need 300 feet between a person and the base of the tree that holds an eagle's nest. The eagles really prefer a 600 foot distance between you and their nest tree. I think of the distances needed as those of the length of a football field (which is 360 feet end-to-end). As you could see in the video I am not close to the nest at all - as a matter of fact I am rather at a distance and using a lens set at 800mm via extenders. I made the video standing more than 300 feet away from the nest tree. Regretfully, the people I have told about the nest have broken my trust and I have seen them actually get within 100 feet of the nest tree. The people were within a hundred feet and both eagle parents were very agitated and the intruding cameras kept clicking. So I no longer tell people how to find the nest.
I am sorry that each of you that has asked the question of "where" is caught in this situation because as far as I know, probably none of you have ever gotten close enough to an eagle's nest to cause the parents to be disturbed. But I must act in my capacity as a veterinarian to say that I no longer tell people where that nest is located. If I tell one of you I must tell all of you and someone will say "well I only want one really close photo…and what harm can getting close enough for that one photo cause...". I have found people in the last two weeks close enough to the eagle's nest to cause the parents to be very upset.
Again to each of you who are so caring about the eagles, I apologize. I wish that I could take all of you and let you stand where I stand, 300 feet away from the nest to watch, but I cannot. The poor judgement and actions of others has kept me from answering your question the way that each of you had hoped I would.
I ask for your understanding of my predicament. I am caught between the eagles that I want to see continue to fill the skies and those of you who have graced me with your enthusiastic viewing of my attempts to let each of you share with me Creation as I am so blessed to see it.
peace and grace
