Marais d'Orx - Landes - France

 

La Rainette verte (Hyla arborea) est une petite grenouille arboricole mesurant 5 cm maximum, dont les doigts sont équipés de disques adhésifs ("ventouses") lui permettant de grimper dans les arbres ou roseaux.

Elle fréquente les eaux stagnantes présentant une végétation aquatique souvent riche : mares, marais et étangs.

  

The Green Treefrog (Hyla arborea) is a small tree frog, up to 5 cm long, whose fingers are equipped with adhesive discs ("suction cups") that enable it to climb trees or reeds.

  

It frequents stagnant waters with often rich aquatic vegetation: ponds, marshes and ponds.

🇫🇷 Le Costa Rica est connu pour offrir les plus nombreux spots de "grenouilles tropicales "Presque tous les lodges et hôtels proposent une activité découverte des grenouilles ,à la nuit tombée.dans leur parc....Ces grenouilles sont majoritairement minuscules plus ou moins 2cm.

Je n'ai pas identifié formellement celle ci qui n'a pas de coloris aussi innovants que les autres, mais elle n'est surement pas arboricole, car elle n'a pas de petits disques ventouses aux extrémités de ses doigts..

We are now at La Fortuna location #3 on the small map below

Costa Rica is known to offer the most numerous spots of "tropical frogs". Almost all the lodges and hotels propose an activity of discovery of the frogs, at nightfall, in their park.... These frogs are mostly tiny more or less 2cm.

I have not formally identified this one, which is not as innovative in colour as the others, but it is certainly not arboreal, as it does not have small suction discs at the ends of its fingers.

Maybe a

Rana brillante de bosque

diurnqui moves on the ground of tropical forests, plains but also gardens. Crouching down, it can easily camouflage itself in the vegetation. If a predator approaches by surprise, it jumps up and exposes the bright colours of its skin on the underside and inside of its limbs. This defence technique works like a flash that dazzles and destabilises the other animal...

If you recognize it, do not hesitate

Comme je descendais des Fleuves impassibles,

Je ne me sentis plus guidé par les haleurs :

Des Peaux-Rouges criards les avaient pris pour cibles

Les ayant cloués nus aux poteaux de couleurs.

 

J'étais insoucieux de tous les équipages,

Porteur de blés flamands ou de cotons anglais.

Quand avec mes haleurs ont fini ces tapages

Les Fleuves m'ont laissé descendre où je voulais.

 

Dans les clapotements furieux des marées

Moi l'autre hiver plus sourd que les cerveaux d'enfants,

Je courus ! Et les Péninsules démarrées

N'ont pas subi tohu-bohus plus triomphants.

 

La tempête a béni mes éveils maritimes.

Plus léger qu'un bouchon j'ai dansé sur les flots

Qu'on appelle rouleurs éternels de victimes,

Dix nuits, sans regretter l'oeil niais des falots !

 

Plus douce qu'aux enfants la chair des pommes sures,

L'eau verte pénétra ma coque de sapin

Et des taches de vins bleus et des vomissures

Me lava, dispersant gouvernail et grappin

 

Et dès lors, je me suis baigné dans le Poème

De la Mer, infusé d'astres, et lactescent,

Dévorant les azurs verts ; où, flottaison blême

Et ravie, un noyé pensif parfois descend ;

 

Où, teignant tout à coup les bleuités, délires

Et rythmes lents sous les rutilements du jour,

Plus fortes que l'alcool, plus vastes que nos lyres,

Fermentent les rousseurs amères de l'amour !

 

Je sais les cieux crevant en éclairs, et les trombes

Et les ressacs et les courants : Je sais le soir,

L'aube exaltée ainsi qu'un peuple de colombes,

Et j'ai vu quelque fois ce que l'homme a cru voir !

 

J'ai vu le soleil bas, taché d'horreurs mystiques,

Illuminant de longs figements violets,

Pareils à des acteurs de drames très-antiques

Les flots roulant au loin leurs frissons de volets !

 

J'ai rêvé la nuit verte aux neiges éblouies,

Baiser montant aux yeux des mers avec lenteurs,

La circulation des sèves inouïes,

Et l'éveil jaune et bleu des phosphores chanteurs !

 

J'ai suivi, des mois pleins, pareille aux vacheries

Hystériques, la houle à l'assaut des récifs,

Sans songer que les pieds lumineux des Maries

Pussent forcer le mufle aux Océans poussifs !

 

J'ai heurté, savez-vous, d'incroyables Florides

Mêlant aux fleurs des yeux de panthères à peaux

D'hommes ! Des arcs-en-ciel tendus comme des brides

Sous l'horizon des mers, à de glauques troupeaux !

 

J'ai vu fermenter les marais énormes, nasses

Où pourrit dans les joncs tout un Léviathan !

Des écroulement d'eau au milieu des bonaces,

Et les lointains vers les gouffres cataractant !

 

Glaciers, soleils d'argent, flots nacreux, cieux de braises !

Échouages hideux au fond des golfes bruns

Où les serpents géants dévorés de punaises

Choient, des arbres tordus, avec de noirs parfums !

 

J'aurais voulu montrer aux enfants ces dorades

Du flot bleu, ces poissons d'or, ces poissons chantants.

- Des écumes de fleurs ont bercé mes dérades

Et d'ineffables vents m'ont ailé par instants.

 

Parfois, martyr lassé des pôles et des zones,

La mer dont le sanglot faisait mon roulis doux

Montait vers moi ses fleurs d'ombre aux ventouses jaunes

Et je restais, ainsi qu'une femme à genoux...

 

Presque île, balottant sur mes bords les querelles

Et les fientes d'oiseaux clabaudeurs aux yeux blonds

Et je voguais, lorsqu'à travers mes liens frêles

Des noyés descendaient dormir, à reculons !

 

Or moi, bateau perdu sous les cheveux des anses,

Jeté par l'ouragan dans l'éther sans oiseau,

Moi dont les Monitors et les voiliers des Hanses

N'auraient pas repêché la carcasse ivre d'eau ;

 

Libre, fumant, monté de brumes violettes,

Moi qui trouais le ciel rougeoyant comme un mur

Qui porte, confiture exquise aux bons poètes,

Des lichens de soleil et des morves d'azur,

 

Qui courais, taché de lunules électriques,

Planche folle, escorté des hippocampes noirs,

Quand les juillets faisaient crouler à coups de triques

Les cieux ultramarins aux ardents entonnoirs ;

 

Moi qui tremblais, sentant geindre à cinquante lieues

Le rut des Béhémots et les Maelstroms épais,

Fileur éternel des immobilités bleues,

Je regrette l'Europe aux anciens parapets !

 

J'ai vu des archipels sidéraux ! et des îles

Dont les cieux délirants sont ouverts au vogueur :

- Est-ce en ces nuits sans fond que tu dors et t'exiles,

Million d'oiseaux d'or, ô future Vigueur ? -

 

Mais, vrai, j'ai trop pleuré ! Les Aubes sont navrantes.

Toute lune est atroce et tout soleil amer :

L'âcre amour m'a gonflé de torpeurs enivrantes.

Ô que ma quille éclate ! Ô que j'aille à la mer !

 

Si je désire une eau d'Europe, c'est la flache

Noire et froide où vers le crépuscule embaumé

Un enfant accroupi plein de tristesses, lâche

Un bateau frêle comme un papillon de mai.

 

Je ne puis plus, baigné de vos langueurs, ô lames,

Enlever leur sillage aux porteurs de cotons,

Ni traverser l'orgueil des drapeaux et des flammes,

Ni nager sous les yeux horribles des pontons.

  

********* ENGLISH VERSION ***********

  

As I was floating down unconcerned Rivers

I no longer felt myself steered by the haulers:

Gaudy Redskins had taken them for targets

Nailing them nake d to coloured stakes.

I cared nothing for all my crews,

Carrying Flemish wheat or English cottons.

When, along with my haulers those uproars were done with

The Rivers let me sail downstream where I pleased.

Into the ferocious tide-rips

Last winter, more absorbed than the minds of c hildren,

I ran! And the unmoored Peninsulas

Never endured more triumphant clamourings

The storm made bliss of my sea-borne awakenings.

Lighter than a cork, I danced on the waves

Which men call eternal rollers of victims,

For ten nights, without once missing the foolish eye of the harbor lights!

Sweeter than the flesh of sour apples to c hildren,

The green water penetrated my pinewood hull

And washed me clean of the bluish wine-stains and the splashes of vomit,

Carrying away both rudder and anchor.

And from that time on I bathed in the Poem

Of the Sea, star-infused and churned into milk,

Devouring the green azures; where, entranced in pallid flotsam,

A dreaming drowned man sometimes goes down;

Where, suddenly dyeing the bluenesses, deliriums

And slow rhythms under the gleams of the daylight,

Stronger than alcohol, vaster than music

Ferment the bitter rednesses of love!

I have come to know the skies splitting with lightnings, and the waterspouts

And the breakers and currents; I know the evening,

And Dawn rising up like a flock of doves,

And sometimes I have seen what men have imagined they saw!

I have seen the low-hanging sun speckled with mystic horrors.

Lighting up long violet coagulations,

Like the performers in very-antique dramas

Waves rolling back into the distances their shiverings of venetian blinds!

I have dreamed of the green night of the dazzled snows

The kiss rising slowly to the eyes of the seas,

The circulation of undreamed-of saps,

And the yellow-blue awakenings of singing phosphorus!

I have followed, for whole months on end, the swells

Battering the reefs like hysterical herds of cows,

Never dreaming that the luminous feet of the Marys

Could force back the muzzles of snorting Oceans!

I have struck, do you realize, incredible Floridas

Where mingle with flowers the eyes of panthers

In human skins! Rainbows stretched like bridles

Under the seas' horizon, to glaucous herds!

I have seen the enormous swamps seething, traps

Where a whole leviathan rots in the reeds!

Downfalls of waters in the midst of the calm

And distances cataracting down into abysses!

Glaciers, suns of silver, waves of pearl, skies of red-hot coals!

Hideous wrecks at the bottom of brown gulfs

Where the giant snakes devoured by vermin

Fall from the twisted trees with black odours!

I should have liked to show to c hildren those dolphins

Of the blue wave, those golden, those singing fishes.

- Foam of flowers rocked my driftings

And at times ineffable winds would lend me wings.

Sometimes, a martyr weary of poles and zones,

The sea whose sobs sweetened my rollings

Lifted its shadow-flowers with their yellow sucking disks toward me

And I hung there like a kneeling woman...

Almost an island, tossing on my beaches the brawls

And droppings of pale-eyed, clamouring birds,

And I was scudding along when across my frayed cordage

Drowned men sank backwards into sleep!

But now I, a boat lost under the hair of coves,

Hurled by the hurricane into the birdless ether,

I, whose wreck, dead-drunk and sodden with water,

neither Monitor nor Hanse ships would have fished up;

Free, smoking, risen from violet fogs,

I who bored through the wall of the reddening sky

Which bears a sweetmeat good poets find delicious,

Lichens of sunlight [mixed] with azure snot,

Who ran, speckled with lunula of electricity,

A crazy plank, with black sea-horses for escort,

When Julys were crushing with cudgel blows

Skies of ultramarine into burning funnels;

I who trembled, to feel at fifty leagues' distance

The groans of Behemoth's rutting, and of the dense Maelstroms

Eternal spinner of blue immobilities

I long for Europe with it's aged old parapets!

I have seen archipelagos of stars! and islands

Whose delirious skies are open to sailor:

- Do you sleep, are you exiled in those bottomless nights,

Million golden birds, O Life Force of the future? -

But, truly, I have wept too much! The Dawns are heartbreaking.

Every moon is atrocious and every sun bitter:

Sharp love has swollen me up with heady langours.

O let my keel split! O let me sink to the bottom!

If there is one water in Europe I want, it is the

Black cold pool where into the scented twilight

A child squatting full of sadness, launches

A boat as fragile as a butterfly in May.

I can no more, bathed in your langours, O waves,

Sail in the wake of the carriers of cottons,

Nor undergo the pride of the flags and pennants,

Nor pull past the horrible eyes of the hulks.

Schistosoma haematobium est un ver plat parasite, appartenant à l’embranchement des Plathelminthes (vers plats non segmentés), à la classe des Trématodes (appareil digestif avec cæcum), à l’ordre des Strigeatida (ventouses ventrale et buccale), à la famille des Schistosomatidés (cercaires libres) et enfin au genre Schistosoma, car l’hôte définitif est un mammifère. Schistosoma haematobium est un petit schistosome dont les femelles pondent leurs œufs dans les capillaires du plexus veineux péri-vésical déterminant la bilharziose vésicale, qui est décrit comme facteur de risque d'adénocarcinome de la vessie. 112 millions de personnes seraient infectées par ce ver à travers le monde, dont 80 millions sous sa forme morbide, causant 150 000 décès par an.

 

Il est responsable de la bilharziose sous sa forme urogénitale.

  

Schistosoma haematobium is an important digenetic trematode, and is found in Africa and the Middle East. It is a major agent of schistosomiasis; more specifically, it is associated with urinary schistosomiasis.

 

Adults are found in the venous plexuses around the urinary bladder and the released eggs travels to the wall of the urine bladder causing haematuria and fibrosis of the bladder. The bladder becomes calcified, and there is increased pressure on ureters and kidneys otherwise known as hydronephrosis. Inflammation of the genitals due to S. haematobium may contribute to the propagation of HIV. Studies have shown the relationship between S. haematobium infection and the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder

Mon fils a essayé ces nouvelles chaussures à ventouses, et ça marche pas mal !

My kid tried its new sticky shoes, and it didnt' work too bad !

Originaire d'Amérique centrale, "Hylocereus purpusii", le pitahaya rouge ou pitaya est un cactus qui rampe ou qui grimpe aux arbres ou sur les murs grâce à des racines qui s'accrochent telles des ventouses. Ses tiges sont composées d'articulations triangulaires séparées par des étranglements avec, sur les côtés, de courtes épines. Les grandes fleurs blanches, qui exhalent un parfum envoûtant, possèdent un large style et de très nombreuses étamines et éclosent sur les côtés des tiges. La floraison a lieu de nuit et ne dure que quelques heures entre 19 et 20 heures le soir jusque vers 5 heures du matin. Dès l'aube, la fleur commence à se faner. Elle laisse place, un mois plus tard, à un gros fruit à l'épiderme rose vif dont la chair rouge est parsemée de très nombreuses petites graines noires, fruit qui se consomme généralement frais à la petite cuillère après l'avoir coupé en deux.

 

Native to Central America, "Hylocereus purpusii", the red pitahaya or pitaya is a cactus that crawls or climbs trees or walls thanks to roots that cling like suction cups. Its stems are composed of triangular joints separated by constrictions with, on the sides, short thorns. The large white flowers, which exude a captivating scent, have a large style and very many stamens and hatch on the sides of the stems. Flowering takes place at night and lasts only a few hours between 7 and 8 p.m. in the evening until around 5 a.m. At dawn, the flower begins to fade. It gives way, a month later, to a large fruit with bright pink skin whose red flesh is dotted with very many small black seeds, a fruit that is generally eaten fresh with a teaspoon after having cut it in two.

The narcissistic manager will have two main sources of narcissistic supply: inanimate (status symbols like cars, gadgets or office views); and animate (flattery and attention from colleagues and subordinates).,Teammates may find everyday offers of support swiftly turn them into enabling sources of permanent supply, unless they are very careful to maintain proper boundaries.[The narcissistic manager's need to protect such supply networks will prevent objective decision-making.. Such a manager will evaluate long-term strategies according to their potential for gaining personal attention. "the will," in echoism. In contrast to the feeling of perfection.This is the place for two remarks. First, how do we differentiate between the concepts of narcissism and egoism? Well, narcissism, I believe, is the libidinal complement to egoism. When we speak of egoism, we have in view only the individual's advantage; when we talk of narcissism we are also taking his libidinal satisfaction into account. As practical motives the two can be traced separately for quite a distance. It is possible to be absolutely egoistic and yet maintain powerful object-cathexes, in so far as libidinal satisfaction in relation to the object forms part of the ego's needs. In that case, egoism will see to it that striving for the object involves no damage to the ego. It is possible to be egoistic and at the same time to be excessively narcissistic—that is to say, to have very little need for an object, whether, once more, for the purpose of direct sexual satisfaction, or in connection with the higher aspirations, derived from sexual need, which we are occasionally in the habit of contrasting with ‘sensuality’ under the name of ‘love’. In all these connections egoism is what is self-evident and constant, while narcissism is the variable element. The opposite to egoism, altruism, does not, as a concept, coincide with libidinal object-cathexis, but is distinguished from it by the absence of longings for sexual satisfaction. When someone is completely in love, however, altruism converges with libidinal object-cathexis. As a rule the sexual object attracts a portion of the ego's narcissism to itself, and this becomes noticeable as what is known as the ‘sexual overvaluation’ of the object. If in addition there is an altruistic transposition of egoism on to the sexual object, the object becomes supremely powerful; it has, as it were, absorbed the ego." (Freud, Introductory Lectures (1919), pp. 417–18).Narcissism is the pursuit of gratification from vanity or egotistic admiration of one's own attributes. The term originated from Greek mythology, where the young Narcissus fell in love with his own image reflected in a pool of water. Narcissism is a concept in psychoanalytic theory, which was popularly introduced in Sigmund Freud's essay On Narcissism (1914). The American Psychiatric Association has had the classification narcissistic personality disorder in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) since 1968, drawing on the historical concept of megalomania.Narcissism is also considered a social or cultural problem. It is a factor in trait theory used in various self-report inventories of personality[ such as the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory. It is one of the three dark triadic personality traits (the others being psychopathy and Machiavellianism). Except in the sense of primary narcissism or healthy self-love, narcissism is usually considered a problem in a person's or group's relationships with self and others. Narcissism is not the same as egocentrism.Narcissistic personality disorder affects an estimated 1% of the general population. Although most individuals have some narcissistic traits, high levels of narcissism can manifest themselves in a pathological form as narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), whereby the patient overestimates his or her abilities and has an excessive need for admiration and affirmation. A revision of NPD took place in the DSM-5. In this revision, NPD saw dramatic changes to its definition. The general move towards a dimensional (personality trait-based) view of the Personality Disorders has been maintained. Some narcissists may have a limited or minimal capability to experience emotions.Healthy narcissism might exist in all individuals. Freud said that this is an original state from which the individual develops the love object.[qualify evidence] He argued that healthy narcissism is an essential part of normal development.According to Freud, the love of the parents for their child and their attitude toward their child could be seen as a revival and reproduction of their own narcissism. The child has an omnipotence of thought; the parents stimulate that feeling because in their child they see the things that they have never reached themselves. Compared to neutral observers, parents tend to overvalue the qualities of their child. When parents act in an extreme opposite style and the child is rejected or inconsistently reinforced depending on the mood of the parent, the self-needs of the child are not met.[citation needed] Freud contrasts the natural development of active-egoistic and passive-altruistic tendencies in the individual with narcissism, in the former, and what Trevor Pederson[ refers to as echoism, in the latter.Healthy narcissism has to do with a strong feeling of "own love" protecting the human being against illness. Eventually, however, the individual must love the other, "the object love to not become ill." The individual becomes ill as a result of the frustration created when he is unable to love the object. In pathological narcissism such as the narcissistic personality disorder, the person’s libido has been withdrawn from objects in the world and produces megalomania. The clinical theorists Kernberg, Kohut and Millon all see pathological narcissism as a possible outcome in response to unempathic and inconsistent early childhood interactions. They suggested that narcissists try to compensate in adult relationships.The pathological condition of narcissism is, as Freud suggested, a magnified, extreme manifestation of healthy narcissism.In developmental terms, two rather different trajectories can be distinguished with respect to egotism – the one individual, the other cultural.

With respect to the developing individual, a movement takes place from egocentricity to sociality during the process of growing up.[8] It is normal for an infant to have an inflated – almost a majestic – sense of egotism. The over-evaluation of one's own ego regularly appears in childish forms of love – in large part because the baby is to himself everything, omnipotent to the best of their own knowledge.[Optimal development allows a gradual reconciliation to a more realistic view of one's own place in the world – a lessening of the egotistical swollen head.[12] Less adequate adjustment may later lead to what has been called defensive egotism, serving to overcompensate for the fragility of the underlying concept of self..Robin Skynner however considered that in the main growing up leads to a state where "your ego is still there, but it's taking its proper limited place among all the other egos".However, alongside such a positive trajectory of diminishing individual egotism, a rather different arc of development can be noted in cultural terms, linked to what has been seen as the increasing infantilism of (post)modern society..Whereas in the nineteenth century egotism was still widely regarded as a traditional vice – for Nathaniel Hawthorne egotism was a sort of diseased self-contemplation – Romanticism had already set in motion a countervailing current, what Richard Eldridge described as a kind of "cultural egotism, substituting the individual imagination for vanishing social tradition". The romantic idea of the self-creating individual – of a self-authorizing, artistic egotism[18] – then took on broader social dimensions in the following century. Keats might still attack Wordsworth for the regressive nature of his retreat into the egotistical sublime;[19] but by the close of the twentieth century egotism had been naturalized much more widely by the Me generation into the Culture of Narcissism.In the 21st century, romantic egotism has been seen as feeding into techno-capitalism in two complementary ways: on the one hand, through the self-centred consumer, focused on their own self-fashioning through brand 'identity'; on the other through the equally egotistical voices of 'authentic' protest, as they rage against the machine, only to produce new commodity forms that serve to fuel the system for further consumption.With regard to the condition of healthy narcissism, it is suggested that this is correlated with good psychological health. Self-esteem works as a mediator between narcissism and psychological health. Therefore, because of their elevated self-esteem, deriving from self-perceptions of competence and likability, high narcissists are relatively free of worry and gloom.Other researchers suggested that healthy narcissism cannot be seen as ‘good’ or ‘bad’; however, it depends on the contexts and outcomes being measured. In certain social contexts such as initiating social relationships, and with certain outcome variables, such as feeling good about oneself, healthy narcissism can be helpful. In other contexts, such as maintaining long-term relationships and with other outcome variables, such as accurate self-knowledge, healthy narcissism can be unhelpful.People with narcissistic personality disorder are characterized by their persistent grandiosity, excessive need for admiration, and a disdain and lack of empathy for others. These individuals often display arrogance, a sense of superiority, and power-seeking behaviors.Narcissistic personality disorder is different from having a strong sense of self-confidence; people with NPD typically value themselves over others to the extent that they disregard the feelings and wishes of others and expect to be treated as superior regardless of their actual status or achievements.In addition, people with NPD may exhibit fragile egos, an inability to tolerate criticism, and a tendency to belittle others in an attempt to validate their own superiority.People with NPD tend to exaggerate their skills and accomplishments as well as their level of intimacy with people they consider to be high-status. Their sense of superiority may cause them to monopolize conversations and to become impatient or disdainful when others talk about themselves. In the course of a conversation, they may purposefully or unknowingly disparage or devalue the other person by overemphasizing their own success. When they are aware that their statements have hurt someone else, they tend to react with contempt and to view it as a sign of weakness.[7] When their own ego is wounded by a real or perceived criticism, their anger can be disproportionate to the situation,but typically, their actions and responses are deliberate and calculated.Despite occasional flare-ups of insecurity, their self-image is primarily stable (i.e., overinflated).To the extent that people are pathologically narcissistic, they can be controlling, blaming, self-absorbed, intolerant of others' views, unaware of others' needs, the effects of their behavior on others, and insist that others see them as they wish to be seen.Narcissistic individuals use various strategies to protect the self at the expense of others. They tend to devalue, derogate, insult, blame others and they often respond to threatening feedback with anger and hostility.Since the fragile ego of individuals with NPD is hypersensitive to perceived criticism or defeat, they are prone to feelings of shame, humiliation and worthlessness over minor or even imagined incidents. They usually mask these feelings from others with feigned humility, isolating socially or they may react with outbursts of rage, defiance, or by seeking revenge. The merging of the "inflated self-concept" and the "actual self" is seen in the inherent grandiosity of narcissistic personality disorder. Also inherent in this process are the defense mechanisms of denial, idealization and devaluation..According to the DSM-5, "Many highly successful individuals display personality traits that might be considered narcissistic. Only when these traits are inflexible, maladaptive, and persisting and cause significant functional impairment or subjective distress do they constitute narcissistic personality disorder."Although overconfidence tends to make individuals with NPD ambitious, it does not necessarily lead to success and high achievement professionally. These individuals may be unwilling to compete or may refuse to take any risks in order to avoid appearing like a failure. In addition, their inability to tolerate setbacks, disagreements or criticism, along with lack of empathy, make it difficult for such individuals to work cooperatively with others or to maintain long-term professional relationships with superiors and colleagues.There is evidence that narcissistic personality disorder is heritable, and individuals are much more likely to develop NPD if they have a family history of the disorder.[Studies on the occurrence of personality disorders in twins determined that there is a moderate to high heritability for narcissistic personality disorder. However the specific genes and gene interactions that contribute to its cause, and how they may influence the developmental and physiological processes underlying this condition, have yet to be determined.

Crème de la société, une pommade pour les malades de selfies, ça pique les yeux, ou bien c'est jeter la poudre aux yeux, pour si peu, un sois même qui s'auto-aime sans gène pour ceux qui n'ont rien d'autre que leurs yeux qui piquent de honte et de larmesC'est beau comme on s'aime devant,

c'est beaucoup qu'on sème derrière

Chanson de gestes pour l'amour physique de son apparence, c'est un tube de l'été🌞, il est serré, yeux ....contre Dieu. Le profane se passe de la pommade, jaillissante comme le génie de la lampe 💡d'Aladdin. C'est la crème 🙈de la société, elle est fabriquée 🙊avec de la poudre aux yeux 🙉pour rouler les mécaniques d'une pieuvre, elle nous enlace si bien avec ses petites ventouses, tout ce vent pour séduire sur la plage des apparences trompeuses! 🗿C'est le signe des Têtes inexistantes🎢 et du corps en évolution constante ⛱

Les lapins ont appris le planté de bâton...

Spéciale dédicace a * Firefly * qui voulait une photo de Tommy ;)

OCTOPHIN :

The octophin, is an ambiguous vernacular name belonging to the order of céphalotacés .

The octophin is a cétapode with and tooth is less than fifty meters have a snout , and is characterized by eight arms may each include up to 2000 cups . The body is entirely soft .

The octophins is a very strong animal, which can be aggressive and can become extremely dangerous. it has a voracious appetite .

When a Poulphin Track down a bench of crocodarks , then it is closer to encircle the prey while forcing them to congregate towards the surface. Once crocodarks trapped and terrified , the octophin only has to cross the bench opening a wide mouth. We also know that some octophins pursue benches of hippocampeals until wash up on the sand to catch then by moving to the ground with its tentacles.

The octophin is capable of projecting unlimited one or more clouds of ink to write letters to be sent by the French postman Michel Grand .

Finally, Poulphin demonstrated a paradoxical intelligence , indeed it would be able for example, to understand how to remove the jar lid to access the food contained in it but totally incapable of doing shopping in a supermarket ...

POULPHIN :

Le Poulphin est un nom vernaculaire ambigu appartenant à l'ordre des céphalotacés.

Le poulphin est un cétapode à dents de moins de cinquante mètres dotés d'un rostre long, et se caractérise par ses huit bras pouvant comporter chacun jusqu'à plus de 2000 ventouses. Le corps est entièrement mou.

Le poulphin est un animal très fort, qui peut se montrer agressif et peut devenir extrêmement dangereux . il est doté d'un féroce appétit.

Lorsqu'un Poulphin repère un banc de crocoquins, il se rapproche alors jusqu'à encercler les proies tout en les contraignant à se rassembler vers la surface. Une fois les crocoquins pris au piège et affolés, le Poulphin n'a plus qu'à traverser le banc en ouvrant une large gueule. On sait aussi que certains poulphins poursuivent les bancs de phococampes jusqu'à les faire échouer sur le sable pour les attraper ensuite en en se déplaçant plutôt au ras du sol avec ses tentacules.

Le poulphin est capable de projeter à volonté un ou plusieurs nuages d'encre afin d’écrire des courriers qui seront envoyés par le postier français Michel Grand.

Enfin, le Poulphin fait preuve d'une intelligence paradoxale, en effet il serait capable par exemple, de comprendre comment retirer le couvercle d'un bocal pour accéder à la nourriture contenue dans ce dernier mais totalement incapable de faire ses courses dans un supermarché …

  

La première mention du château d'Eltz date de 1157 lors de sa donation par Frédéric Barberousse à Rudolf zu Eltz.

Bâti dans un méandre de la rivière Elzbach, affluent de la Moselle et transformé au cours des siècles, il a échappé aux destructions et il est toujours la propriété de la même famille.
