"It is always during a passing state of mind that we making lasting resolutions."—Marcel Proust
The onset of the New Year poses, once again, the annual question of making resolutions. Can the possibility of change, no matter how modest, make a fundamental improvement to our lives? Or does a lifestyle makeover need to be contemplated to bring peace to a slightly disappointed traveler of life?
Simply wishing that you will shed some pounds or learn to speak Spanish this year will not make it happen. Nor is wisdom attained just because one has reached a certain age. Please understand that if a resolution is worth considering, then it must become part of your life.
How we interact with our fragile blue planet, both locally and globally, will either imprint our positive stewardship or leave a legacy of failure for future generations to deal with. We can do much better and must resolve to do so.
The outsized storms before Christmas revealed the vulnerability of downtown Laguna and other low-lying neighborhoods, particularly Laguna Canyon. Although the outward appearance of normalcy prevailed within a day, due to the strong direction of the city manager and implementation by public departments, the city should resolve to reconsider additional measures to mitigate future flooding.
Volunteerism comes in many forms… helping those in need after natural disasters comes to mind at this moment. Resolve to help your neighbor in need if you can; whether he or she is next door or in a faraway land.
The quality of light and view cannot be less than treasured and respected, whether in a Guatemalan jungle or from a home in Laguna. We have a responsibility to share views of the Pacific, canyons, and hillsides with our neighbors, while balancing the need for privacy. Let's resolve to do so this year.
This is no excuse for not resolving to walk more frequently in Laguna; breathtaking views abound from Heisler Park to hillside trails. Besides increasing one's fitness level, shedding your vehicle allows for window-shopping and greeting friends. And never underestimate the therapeutic value of a glass of vino tinto at the Marine Room after your walk.
The pleasure of gardening and the unmitigated joy of tasting the first homegrown tomato is not solely a rite of spring. Let's resolve to get back to the garden more often this year.
The toughest job in Laguna is being on the Design Review Board. Decisions are often made by member consensus, regarding architecture, landscape, and fairness. I believe that the City Council should permanently resolve to include an architect among the five-member board.
To see the world through the art of traveling is not a luxury; there is a lot to see outside the confines of Laguna. Resolve to visit other locales and return to treasure our town even more.
It struck me at the Rio Lampara, while popping grapes at the stroke of midnight (an Italian tradition, we were told), that a revolution, rather than a resolution, could be personally unfolding. Twelve seconds to contemplate my life's next chapter… But that's another story. See you next time.

Jolie On Vuitton
ANGELINA JOLIE has spoken for the first time about shooting her Louis Vuitton Core Values campaign in Cambodia. In an interview for the brand, filmed in a wooden shack on location for the shoot, Jolie recalls her first visit to Cambodia and why it became a life-changing experience.
"I first came to Cambodia about ten years ago for a film and we were the first film back since the war, so we didn't know quite know what it was going to be like, or what the people were going to be like, and it was the first time I became aware of landmines," Jolie says. "I remember standing in the waterfall during one of our shots and they said 'just stay on this side of the waterfall because that side of the waterfall still hasn't been de-mined'. And I thought, as somebody from America, what does that mean, hasn't been de-mined? It's just the craziest, it doesn't cross our mind that all these children, and people walking around these areas, have landmines in the ground and that's just a part of their daily life."
The campaign's tagline simply reads: "A single journey can change the course of a life. Cambodia, May 2011." Jolie's fees for this campaign are being donated to charity.
Jolie and long-term partner Brad Pitt were in the tabloids again this morning as rumours emerged that they are set to marry later this year.

Many gamers of today will have been keen players on old consoles and machines doing battle with invaders of an extra-terrestrial nature. You remember them all; Space Invaders, Asteroids and several other attackers and evil outsiders that were hell bent on earth's destruction. A destruction you were tasked to prevent.
Drone Invaders falls pretty much into that category. Drones are all the rage at this time and wherever you are and whatever publication you read, you'll be hearing about drones. They are in the news and up in our skies. But we have only seen the tip of the iceberg so far – drones will become a big part of our future, our very near future.
Drone Invaders is a game where the drone manufacturers are actually from an alien life force. The theme is pretty much in line with the old methods of alien attacks our planet, you save the planet by shooting them down, they change tactics and try to fool you, you step up the mark and try and gain strength by using power ups and credits.
However, Drone Invaders may be working on a tried and tested old theme, but it does feel different to those old retro classics. The drones in this game are aliens or the alien craft; they are all different in colour, shape and size – whether this is designed to put you off or keep you on your toes, I don't know but it sure as hell does.
When the drones first attack, they do so in such a method that leaves you thinking that was easy, and we can assure at first, it is. But then the aliens pull an ace from their sleeve and thrown in a completely new attack formation: you then step up to the plate and fend them off using your laser gun mounted on a turret, and once again, they go down. And so it goes on and on, the alien drones will find new ways of resisting your defence strategies.
The faster you complete your missions, the quicker you become more powerful. But good in-play results in power ups on the go. There is always a chance to enhance weaponry and to strengthening your shields. It is a dogfight all the way with the alien drones but you should always keep a lookout for those aliens hiding behind moons or other celestial bodies.(4 / 5)

About the real Gender Identity Disorder or GIDNOS
For present day psychiatry and psychology, all gender variance - all unexpected development of gender identity - is considered
a "disorder", a "mental disorder", is classified in DSM-IV th from APA as a mental disorder.
We consider what is classified as GIDNOS as the only real situations we may consider a "mental disorder".
So, we consider GID and GIDNOS synonims, and apply them only atypical situations, when nor HBS/TS may be considered, nor TG, nor CD, and nor intersex, also IG.
When there is no defined patterns, when there are not unexpected developments but UNEXPECTED DEVELOPMENT DYNAMICS when we study gender identity, we consider a possible real GID/GIDNOS condition or state.
These are the most complex and difficult states not to recognize, but to be of some help.
Prescription of transition, will need always continuous monitoring - suppervision, perhaps face-to-face when possible.
About GID/GIDNOS we consider not generalizations. Each patient develops a particular very special condition.
See a petition for APA (American Psychiatric Association) we signed
Our APA petition
We suggest not, with that petition, that irresponsably any one may ask SRS surgeries. We suggest all that may live gender unusual conditions that want surgeries, need to have a Psy-Screening - and if a real GIDNOS condition is clearly verified - something mind related and a-typical, then and only then, a deep mental verification is needed.
And most of these times, any surgery must be postponed up until we may be sure it is really necessary.

When is a ring road a bad idea?
When is a Ring Road a Bad Idea?
November 2010
By Duncan Kent
When is a ring road a bad idea? When it isn't a ring road and when it won't fix the problem!
A "ring road" is a highway that encircles an urban area so traffic does not have to pass through the centre to get to the other side. Planning a ring road for Calgary began over 40 years ago but the Province of Alberta has yet to select a route for the southwest portion of this road. A 37th Street alignment is currently under study but that would be through the heart of the city – not around it! So let's not call this a "ring road". A 37th Street route would dump thousands of additional commuter vehicles onto Crowchild and Bow Trail and, without massive upgrades to corridors into downtown such as 9th Avenue SW, would just move the bottleneck.
We must fix gridlock in Calgary but let's not spend billions on a plan that won't resolve the problem!
The proposed SW ring road link would be very similar to Deerfoot Trail as it exists today – 6 to 8 lanes wide and with a speed limit of 100 kph. Such a road has a right of way width of about 300 meters (3 football fields!) and the interchanges have a massive foot print. It would also generate significant amounts of noise and air pollutants. There are some sections along 37th Street with fewer than 40 meters between Tsuu T'ina Nation lands and the front door of homes. This is not a question of a minor road widening! This is massive destruction of established communities in Lakeview, Oakridge, Cedarbrae, Woodbine, and Evergreen. The size of the roadway and interchanges would require the demolition of apartment buildings, town homes, and hundreds of single family homes; Lakeview residents did not buy their homes with the knowledge it could be expropriated for the SW Ring road.
Financial Costs
The expropriations to acquire sufficient right of way would run $500 million dollars or more; the tax revenue from demolished properties would be lost forever. The cost of construction of the roadway, interchanges, and bridge across the Glenmore Reservoir has been estimated at around a billion dollars. The price tag continues to climb when upgrades to linking commuter roads are considered. These costs (which could easily approach another half billion dollars) would be a City of Calgary expense not covered by the province. So the total cost – our tax dollars – will clearly be over $2 billion and may be much more! That bill is over $2,000 for every man, woman and child in Calgary!
Environmental Costs
A 37th Street alignment requires a bridge over the Glenmore Reservoir which could be as long as 1.2 kilometres. The Glenmore Reservoir supplies about half of Calgary's or about one sixth of Alberta's entire drinking water. Studies have indicated water quality in the Elbow River has deteriorated significantly in recent decades due mainly to contaminants coming from sources close to the river. The potential to further degrade Calgary's drinking water by building an expressway over Glenmore Reservoir is an unacceptable risk.
Social Costs
The impacts to Glenmore Park and the Weaselhead Natural Area are sure to be significant. Thousands of people from all over Calgary use these areas and recognize the importance of open spaces and parkland to the quality of life in our city.
One thing is certain about expressways: building them encourages urban sprawl and construction of more distant suburbs that, in turn, create more commuter traffic to clog the new roads. Inner city communities are often chopped up by expressways and become progressively less viable as places to live. The urban core decays and people are driven out to the suburbs for a safe place to live. It is a cycle that large cities all over the world are trying to break by building functional transit systems.
None of us should have to waste hours every day in our cars just to get where we need to go! It doesn't matter how we got into this mess, but how we solve our current transportation problems will be a defining issue for Calgary.
By all measures, the costs of completing the Southwest portion of the ring road are high and the real transportation benefits are doubtful. A 37th Street alignment would not help traffic flow around the city nor would it make a good commuter route. It could take many years – perhaps a decade – before it is built.
So, what can we do now? An effective transportation plan is achievable but we must stop thinking that the only possible solution is the 40 year old ring road idea. There are many alternatives worthy of serious consideration. The City of Calgary's Transportation Department has indicated that just 3% fewer cars on the road would eliminate gridlock. What if transit was convenient, inexpensive and comfortable? What if 5% of Calgarians tele-commuted once a week? A collection of small changes added together could have a big impact and could be done quickly: staggered work hours, bike paths, bus rapid transit (BRT), snow removal, LRT grade separations, and easy roadway improvements such as the new interchange at Glenmore and 37th.
The economic, environmental, and social costs of building the South West link along 37th Street are unacceptably high. There are lower cost alternatives that will work much better and can be implemented much more quickly to fix our urgent transportation problems. Should we wait for a 40 year old idea that won't work or should we start fixing the problem now?

Lieutenant ALEC SCOTT BARTHORPE
London Regiment (London Scottish) "D" Coy. 1st/14th Battalion
Wounded in Action 19th April 1918 and died of wounds 25th April 1918
Son of Mr. and Mrs. S. John Barthorpe
DAINVILLE BRITISH CEMETERY, Pas de Calais, France
Residence: Streatham, London
The London Scottish was a volunteer infantry regiment of the British Army. During the First World War the regiment raised three battalions, with the 1st/14th Battalion serving on the Western Front.
On 25th April 1918, Lieutenant Alec Scott Barthorpe of the 1st/14th London Scottish regiment died from wounds, believed to have occurred during the allied assault of enemy trenches on 19th April 1918, due to no known activity of the regiment taking place on 25th April 1918. However it is uncertain at what point Lieutenant Alec Scott received his injuries.
The assault on the 19th April 1918 took place in France and was a planned advance. It was decided that "zero hour" would be at 4:30am because this was the beginning of the light. It was seen that "The enemy had not erected wire and there were no visible obstacles to an attack across the open". The Zero Hour chosen was fortunate because "about that time a driving shower of hailstones descended for a few minutes. It obscured the view, prevented the noise of our advance being heard by the enemy and probably caused several of his sentries and the majority of his garrison to seek the comfort of their shelters". This meant that the enemy were "taken by surprise". It may be possible that during the assault comrades "firing from the high ground at about a.2.d.20.80" wounded Lieutenant Alec Scott who then "died afterwards in hospital". It was 2nd Lieutenant Bennett who "reached the objective first". One sentry was killed and the others taken prisoner along with a German Sergeant Major being taken prisoner. Enemy parties periodically made attacks on the bombing blocks of the British, but these were "half-hearted and easily repulsed". However "During the period of consolidation there was considerable movement across the open and in shallow trenches by our men and enemy snipers and M.Gs. were extremely active. It was at this juncture that most of our casualties occurred; until then our casualties had only been six wounded". Lieutenant Alec Scott may also have suffered his wounds during these attacks of the enemy.
Capt. White undertook an operation to capture a "pillbox at 7.20pm". He began his operation by a bombing attack to drive back the enemy and advance his bombing block. His party advanced along the trench, "preceded by a barrage of strokes mortars and rifle grenades". Enemy appeared in considerable strength but were pushed back for a short distance. A "Green light sent up by enemy" brought heavy artillery fire on 2nd Lt. Bennett's block and the junction of the two trenches. Withdrawal by the enemy was only momentary and an "immediate counter-attack was carried out along the trench and on both sides across the open". The parties came under heavy machine gun fire from both flanks and were compelled to withdraw, suffering casualties. A withdrawal from "Brigade H.Q was received at 7.40pm" and was carried out in an orderly manner through the Fusiliers area and completed by 10.30pm. "Total causalities incurred were 5 killed, 32 wounded and 1 wounded and missing." It could also be possible that Lieutenant Alec Scott incurred his injuries from the enemy counter-attack to the operation of capturing the pillbox along with him also being the "1 wounded and missing" solider, and he wasn't confirmed dead until the 25th April 1918 due to him being "missing".

Saturday, Dec. 11, 2010 | 2 a.m.
Sun archives
During Las Vegas boxing's heyday in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Willie "The Cannon" Shannon, a tall, lanky, good-looking heavyweight hopeful, swaggered onto the scene and made a splash.
Shannon fit the bill of the boxer in the "Rocky" films of that era — the down-and-outer who sought redemption through his fighting and eventually won the love of the public while regaining his self-respect and self-worth.
A troubled youth who was in a Florida prison from age 16 to 25 for robbery, Shannon, then 29, began the road to recovery by winning his first Las Vegas bout in 1979 and within months capturing the Nevada cruiserweight championship. He set his eyes on the world title, which by 1981 was within his grasp.
But a sharp and unexplainable decline abruptly ended Shannon's fighting days and in 1985 he was in prison for kidnapping and battery. He got out in 1998 and returned to Florida, where he laid low.
Maybe for good reason. Shannon, now 60, was arrested this week in Florida in connection with the slaying 29 years ago of an 18-year-old Las Vegas woman, Jamey Walker. Shannon is in the Manatee County jail awaiting extradition to Nevada on charges of murder, kidnapping and sexual assault.
However this latest chapter ends, the story of Willie "The Cannon" Shannon is one of wasted talent and lost redemption, an athlete whose return to a life of crime led him into a world of drugs, sexual assault, kidnapping, battery and, depending on how a future Las Vegas jury rules, perhaps even murder.
This journalist knew him well, having written a profile of Shannon for the now-defunct Boxing Today magazine in 1981 — the year, it turns out, that Shannon allegedly killed Walker.
Shannon was a study in contrasts. He could be soft-spoken and convincing when he wanted to be, and brash and arrogant when he felt he needed to be.
He claimed to be a devout Muslim who believed in charity and doing what a proper religious person should do. But he did things at the height of his local fame that were not religious and certainly not charitable.
Shannon crashed the elaborate wedding reception thrown by local businessman and boxing judge Joe Swessel for one of his daughters — an event attended by about 2,000 guests.
As the orchestra played and venerable boxing referee Davey Pearl sang "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter," Shannon, clad in a quintessential and ill-fitting 1970s blue leisure suit, strolled into the reception with his dates — eight known prostitutes.
"Certainly nothing bad can come as a result of this, huh?" a reporter wisecracked.
To be fair, Shannon's upbringing was troubled.
Born in Florida, he was raised in a Palmetto home he shared with 20 other children — a poor family pieced together from two broken marriages.
In 1967, at age 16 and weighing 135 pounds, Shannon went joy riding with a group of older teens. While gassing up, some of the guys pulled a snatch-and-grab robbery of the station's register, copping $93. Police stopped the car in nearby Arcadia.
All were convicted. Shannon's sentence was 15 years. He served nine years and was released in 1977.
In prison, Shannon changed from a scrawny teen into a 6-foot-5, 185-pound mass of muscles. He took up pro boxing, seeking only heavyweight matches in small Florida arenas, often against opponents who outweighed him by 10 to 30 pounds or more.
Shannon said in the 1981 interview that he chose to fight as a heavyweight because promoters were paying them more.
He won his debut pro bout on Sept. 15, 1977, earning a four-round decision in Daytona Beach. During the next two years, Shannon fought 10 more four-round fights in Florida, winning them all — nine by knockout.
He wound up in Las Vegas on Oct. 30, 1979, with a 14-0-1 pro record and 11 knockouts. He would go on to win the Nevada cruiserweight crown but then get knocked out in Portland, Ore. He said he was done fighting heavyweights and would focus on winning the world cruiserweight title.
Outside the ring, his life began to go awry.
In spring 1981, Shannon reportedly started keeping an eye on teenage neighbor Jamey Walker, according to what Walker family members later told police.
She was the daughter of nightclub owner James Walker and past Las Vegas NAACP President Eleanor Walker.
According to a criminal complaint filed in late November, Walker's father received a telephone call on May 9, 1981, informing him that his daughter had been kidnapped that day and that the abductors were demanding $75,000 in exchange for his daughter being returned alive.
After Jamey Walker was allowed to get on the line and tell him "Daddy, they are not kidding," the father informed the caller that he needed time to raise the cash and that the banks were closed for the weekend. He did not get time. The next day, Jamey Walker's body was found 47 feet below a bridge in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area a half-hour's drive from where she was abducted.
An autopsy determined she had been raped and flung off the bridge.
Shannon was considered a suspect almost immediately because he allegedly attempted to make contact with her.
When questioned by Metro Police, Shannon denied involvement, saying he was busy training for an upcoming bout. Also, fingerprints at the abduction scene did not match Shannon's.
This was well before police began using DNA evidence. But last month, forensic scientists were able to test a small amount of semen found in Walker's underwear and determined that it contained Shannon's DNA.
Despite the initial lack of evidence, Metro had never dismissed Shannon as a possible suspect — and Shannon knew it, which no doubt affected his training after the killing. One month after Walker was kidnapped, Shannon fought journeyman Carson City light heavyweight Rocky Lee Burkey at the Showboat Sports Pavilion.
Burkey, a fighter of marginal talent who managed to win barely more than half his fights during a seven-year pro career, wasn't expected to last more than a couple of rounds. But Shannon was not his usual self that night and needed eight rounds to beat Burkey by technical knockout.
Two months later, Shannon returned to the Showboat and put his state cruiserweight title on the line against former WBC world cruiserweight champion Marvin Camel. At stake was more than Shannon's crown. The winner would be in line to face U.S. Boxing Association cruiser champ Bash Ali that October. The referee had to jump in during the third round to stop the fight and save Shannon from being pummeled. After that, Shannon caught the proverbial last train to Palookaville.
He fought only one more time as a professional.
The murder investigation aside, Shannon had other problems. He was convicted in July 1985 for the 1983 kidnapping and battery of a woman he was dating.
He was sentenced to 30 years in Nevada State Prison and was paroled after 13 years.
Police say that in 1986 or 1987, he admitted to another inmate, James Phillips, that he was cheated out of $27,000 in a heroin deal with a member of the Walker family. The family has denied any involvement in the drug trade.
Still, police think Jamey Walker may have been killed in retaliation.
Detectives say they think more than one person was involved in the kidnapping and that more arrests are possible.
Several Florida newspapers have reported that in recent years Shannon has lived in Ellenton, Fla., and worked as landscaper. And, according to neighbors, Shannon has been a courteous, hardworking and charitable resident. They expressed disbelief over his arrest for the 1981 killing.
One neighbor described Shannon as a grandfatherly figure who threw birthday parties and taught a neighbor boy how to hit a punching bag at Shannon's home. Another said Shannon did good deeds such as helping to fix his sons' broken bicycle chains.
But Shannon could always charm. In the Boxing Today profile as he was on the cusp of stardom, he was philosophical and confident as he looked toward the rest of his life.
"When I die, I know I am going to heaven," Shannon said. "I've already spent my time in hell ... In prison I learned to take my chances. I'll keep on taking them till the day I die."

I'm sure that for the 3 you list, they wouldn't say "nothing" Clearly Larry and Damian think there are things to improve on in Perl 5, else why would they invest so much time on Perl 6, when they could be doing other fun stuff? I don't have any specific idea of what MJD would improve, but I'd not be surprised if he can think of some simple changes that would improve functional programming support. Oh, and he'd definitely like some bugs fixed, given that he's a contender in the "most open bugs" stakes. (Along with (at least) me, Ton and Abigail) > A graduate is likely to have Java and it is easier to assess their > skills. I will have nothing said against the Java programmers we have That's an interesting observation. How does one assess Perl ability correctly, reliably and with minimal risk (as perceived by the management)? I don't have a good answer to that. I'm curious what the london.pm hive mind thinks.

Once a small fishing village by a shallow bay in the Persian Gulf, the Qatari capital is now dazzling, filled with gleaming towers and financed by oil and natural gas reserves.
Once a small fishing and pearl diving village by a shallow bay in the Persian Gulf, Doha, Qatar is now a dazzling city, filled with gleaming towers and financed by oil and natural gas reserves. Not to be outdone by its Emirati neighbours Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Doha is investing heavily in education, culture and sport to reach its ambitions to be a world-class city. Qataris enjoy the highest per capita income in the world, and that, along with a solid economy, makes Qatar's capital city an appealing destination for international workers.
What is it known for?
Expats outnumber Qataris by six to one, drawn by jobs in construction, hospitality, education and the gas and oil industries. Sheikh Hamid bin Khalifa al-Thani, the Emir of Qatar, has funded massive amounts of infrastructure and development, including Education City, where the university campuses of Carnegie Mellon, Georgetown and Texas A&M are located, and Aspire Zone, where some of the arenas integral to Qatar's hosting the World Cup in 2022 are located. The next decade will see the construction of a city-wide rail system and air-conditioned stadiums, so matches can be played during the scorching hot summer, as well as an entirely modular stadium in Doha Port that will be disassembled after the World Cup and sent on to the next host country. "It is booming, there are a lot of things happening," said Adel Lawson, a British engineer who lives and grew up in Doha and owns the real estate website Mannzili. "It's opening up culturally, even though it is a Muslim culture, there's a lot more to do and places to go out, including theatre and many events organized by expats."
The city is centred on the Corniche, a wide, curving avenue that runs along the bay. In the cool evening hours, families come here to promenade, with women floating past in their black abayas (traditional women's overgarment) and small children darting back and forth. The Museum of Islamic Art, designed by the famous architect IM Pei, anchors the southern end. Just a few blocks in from the Corniche is the Souq Waqif, a cobblestoned facsimile of the souq that was on this site for a century. It may have been built to look old, but the souq is still a top spot for an evening out, wandering in and out of warmly-lit stalls and galleries selling everything from jewellery to spices, past groups of men smoking shisha and sipping mint tea.
Where do you want to live?
The new district of West Bay in the north of the city is very popular, with its waterfront villas and apartment towers, so much so that demand exceeds supply. "We have a lack of two-bedroom apartments in West Bay and not enough villas in West Bay Lagoon or along the waterside on The Pearl Qatar," explained Mirco A Maurer, head of real estate at Engel and Völkers, Doha. The Pearl Qatar is a manmade island development near West Bay with a capacity for 41,000 residents in apartments, villas and hotels, plus retail and marinas. Nearby, the desirable Diplomatic Area at the north end of the Corniche is both a commercial area, home to oil and gas companies, and residential, with many high-rise accommodations.
Al-Sadd, close to the city centre, is a draw for some with its preponderance of retail and designer shops, and to the west, the districts of Al Rayyan and Duheil are also popular, as they are near Education City on the outskirts of town. "These areas provide good access to the new highway to Ras Laffan Industrial City, where many people from the gas industry work," Maurer added.
Side trips
When the weather cools off after the scorching summer months, many people head to Sealine Beach Resort about an hour south of the city on the Persian Gulf to relax in the sand and sea. Dune bashing – driving up and down sand dunes – and picnicking on the beach are popular activities. "People also go up north to Al-Shamal [a small city] to camp and spend time on the beach," Lawson said.
The drive to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, about 550km and 670km respectively, passes through Saudi Arabia, so it is important to know the visa requirements. Doha International Airport is located at the southern edge of the city, but the New Doha International Airport is under construction just 4km away and will be fully operational in 2015, replacing the old one. Flights to London are less than seven hours and flights to New York are around 12 or 13 hours.
Practical information
While foreigners are now able to buy property, many still rent. "We have a huge number of expats with good financial backgrounds and high monthly incomes, but they prefer to be tenants, even if they live here more than five or 10 years," Maurer said. "The banks ask for a much higher mortgage rate than in Europe or the US, and it can be difficult for expats who don't directly work for the government or a semi-government company." Some investors are also turned off by political instability around the region and being restricted to purchasing leaseholds (which means you possess the property for a limited amount of time, not in perpetuity as with a freehold) in designated areas such as The Pearl and West Bay.
However the rental market is up due to factors like the 2022 World Cup, which is attracting international and local companies to open offices here or expand their current staff. Villas start at 13,000 Qatari riyal and go up to 25,000 riyal in an affluent area like West Bay Lagoon. Apartments start around 12,000 riyal in West Bay for a furnished two bedroom, and around 7,000 riyal for a furnished two- to three-bed in Al-Sadd. "Any compounds and apartment buildings which have facilities like a well-sized outdoor pool, a restaurant or at least a small coffee shop and some space for kids are rented very fast and may have a waiting list," Maurer explained.

If you're searching for the world's best nail salons, look no further than Nail It! Ibiza parent company Lena Lenina Manicure Studios. Their nail salon service looks after no less than 20,000 of Russia's top VIPs every month, with approximately 300,000 happy customers. Not only do they have beautifully cared for hands and feet but our cheap nail salons' prices make luxury treatments available to everyone.
The Lena Lenina Manicure Studios story began only a few years ago in 2011, yet the company is already Europe's largest and leading nails salons network, boasting the top nail salons in Russia. More and more studios are opening to join the 150 studio strong network, with plans to move into Poland and Latvia as well as across Spain.
Founder Lena Lenina was once a model and writer living in Paris. When she finally returned to Moscow she realised it lacked the charming little nail bars and nail salons that her served her so well during her time in Paris. In 2011 she bought the famous Alessandro Beja chain of manicure studios; at that time the largest and most technologically advanced chain of professional nail salons. The interiors were created by French designers and thoroughly thought through to the smallest detail, with quick service nail bars for drop-ins and deeper treatment rooms as seen on her nail salon websites.
Lena's goal was simple: To keep nail salon prices down in order to make manicures an affordable luxury for the ladies of Russia, with highly trained technicians using only the best products. She insisted on the top quality service you'd expect from a leading chain, but with cheap nail salons' prices.
Lena is of course the greatest tester of her own products and treatments, and is responsible for the top levels of service. Maybe this is why her studios have achieved almost cult status and are considered to be the best nail salon chain in Russia. After all Lena's showbiz friends frequent nothing less than the best professional nail salons.
Her academy boasts the highest standards, taught by technicians from France's legendary laboratories. They teach over 60 products which is a record in Europe – a quick look at one of the nail salon websites shows over 30 kinds of manicures and pedicures. They have hands and spa rituals including exquisite massages that any elite spa resort would be proud of, despite what appear to be cheap nail salons' prices.
She also has her own cosmetics for hands and nails, based on a combination of natural ingredients and the latest achievements in science and technology – another breakthrough for the Russian market. This combination of innovation, superior quality and affordable price makes Lena Lenina Manicure Studios unique.
Lena Lenina is the soul of the company and is actively involved in all areas of the business, travelling the world selecting the hottest trends and the latest technology, and personally testing all products, treatments and rituals. Her favourite Masura manicure from the best nail salon studios in Russian is already available through Nail It! Ibiza, and we're waiting with baited breath for the divine chocolate spa treatment she loves so much.

|So the summer sales have kicked off, which is ironic considering that summer is only just beginning - but hey that's retail for you! I'm not complaining as I picked up this leather skirt in the Warehouse sale. Whilst I may not (hopefully) get too much use of it during the next few months - c'mon weather, it will be a great transitional piece when we sadly head into autumn.
|Come colder climates, I'd wear this under chunky roll neck knits and polo necks a plenty, but for now I'll be wearing with light blouses, casual tees and lace camis. I rarely shop in Warehouse but after this sale steal, I maybe heading in a lot more...

Approaching The Dawn Of Awkwardness, Part 2
(My wife has a little problem with being far too casual about giving away too much information. We are playing a board game at a friend's house that has small models to represent each players character.)
Friend 1: "Hey, I just noticed that my character is left-handed!"
(Everyone around the table starts miming imaginary weapons to see if this is true for them too.)
Friend 1: "I am too! That's really going to mess me up."
Me: "That doesn't necessarily make you a leftie. Everyone has something they do with their off-hand."
Wife: "That's true! I wipe left-handed!"
Everyone: *stunned silence*

Where Are We Headed? - Inception as Philosophy for Our Future
The top kept spinning, spinning, and spinning. It seemed like it would never end. Then it wobbled ever so slightly, and before we could register what that meant, the screen was immediately cut to black. With that, visionary British director Christopher Nolan has created one of the most ambiguous and talked about endings in all of contemporary cinema, stunning hundreds of millions of viewers whom, I foresee, would continue to talk about it for a very long time.
Inception shows a world no different from ours. It is very much a realist dreamscape; it is neither overly futuristic like that of The Fifth Element, dystopian like that of Children of Men, nor dark and gloomy like that of Blade Runner. Nolan's vision is rooted in the very construct that determines how our world operates – the adherence to the causal-effect phenomena, the curiosity of the human psyche, the evolutionary tendency towards eliminating rival competition, and very essentially, the prevalence of technology in our daily lives.
Inception probes on numerous issues, directly or otherwise, ranging from Man's increasingly unregulated use of technology, our identity and place in society, and to more pronounced observations on the state of our being, which is arguably the most fascinating and thought-provoking takeaway from the film. The concept of the "state of our being" could be described as seeking for an objective subjectivity in an environment of constant ambiguity. Or to put it simply, it is about trying to get all (if not most) of the truth out of the perceived world we live in.
Nolan's film places the reality versus dream debate in the very nucleus of the film's psychological-philosophical discourse. It asks questions that some of us are not ready to answer, or have no answer to. What exactly is reality? Is there such a thing as the real world? Are we in that world? Or are we too caught up in our own (materialistic-driven) "dreams" that we are unable to determine the state of our being? There is a word for it – limbo, as introduced and theorized by Nolan in his film.
Our future is not shaped by who we are, but how we think what we are. What we are will tell us where we are headed. Inception is provocative in the sense that Nolan forces upon the viewer a judgment he or she has to make, especially of its ending. Is it reality? A dream? Limbo? A metaphor? A mental loop state? A false consciousness? Not making a judgment would seem akin to not questioning what we are.
If you perceive the world that you are living in right now as reality, what then is your dream? Is it the dream of a better life? But what if you are actually living that dream, what then does reality mean to you? Our state of being, consciously or otherwise, is constantly struggling to find a place in either of these two realms. Very often, it ends up in neither, causing us unhappiness and disenchantment.
So I shall propose this: In the final scene, Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) spun the top and walked away, not caring about its outcome, confidently accepting what he wanted to believe. That is what we should be striving for. Dreams, realities, and what not, do not matter anymore. They are mental constructs that serve no relevance. What is most important for us now is to find joy and satisfaction in what we have, to seek what I call "living the now". This will give us a platform to build a future of hope. A future that would not be decided by a spinning top.

It's been a strange week. Last weekend I had a small epiphany regarding someone I had thought I was very close to. In reality, they don't think of me as a close friend at all. At best, we're work friends or strong acquaintances. I had the actual realization last Thursday, but over the weekend it began to sink in that I was down another friend (even if that friendship existed only in my head). In taking stock, I became aware that I have a total of two people in my life with whom I ever do or discuss anything other than specific work, or the business in general.
Why do I bottle shit up, or rant about it here? Apparently I do it because I don't have a helluva lot of other options.
Yeesh. That's gotta change.
Tuesday I had a long-delayed dinner with a girl I'm gonna call XJN, for reasons that will become readily apparent if she becomes a fixture on this blog. Which I hope she does. We've known each other for years, but we'd never gone on a date before. Hell, I wasn't even sure it was a date until we spent a couple hours after dinner just walking around talking. It was easy and fun, and we have a loose plan to hang out on my couch, watch movies and… whatever… the next time I'm free. Sadly, at the moment, that looks to be 2018, but I'll see if I can't make room.
Afterwards, I met up with LL and a couple of her friends at a bar in Noho so we could flirt, drive each other crazy, and talk about her relationship, which isn't going too swimmingly at the moment. She's working on Cowboys & Engines with me, so I'll be seeing a lot of her as that goes forward. We'll have plenty of opportunities to frustrate the hell out of ourselves, which is fine because I love spending time with her.
I spent Wednesday cutting together the re-enactment of a grisly murder from 2006 in which a girl ends up dead in a wheelbarrow, her corpse burned almost beyond recognition. It's all part of a mainstream project about a private detective in Palm Desert that Hollywood is directing.
Yesterday, I shot a bunch of promo spots for Vivid's new camgirls site. Today I was focused on getting the audition breakdowns for C&E out, and getting the very basic website with the casting info up. If you're looking for that, you're in the wrong place, BTW. Try looking here.
See? Weird week.
My incredibly hot friend JJ is supposed to be in town this weekend, and we're scheduled to hook up. Haven't seen her since January, so that would be good.
Things have been quiet with Vega, because she's been out of town. Way out of town. Since she's been back, I've gotten hints, prods and outright threats regarding getting together. She's supposed to come over Sunday, but I took a gig doing a Lingerie Football League spot in Vegas Sunday night, so that has to wait. Sorry, hon (god, I'm a dick).
After this weekend, chaos ensues. Work for C&E, work for other people, work in general. I have one or two more screen tests to shoot for Green Door, a day covering the auditions for Jeff Mullen's Wizard of Oz XXX (that oughtta be surreal), a prospective date with Ink, and the Sleeping Beauty XXX shoot with Rob Black. And that's just up till next Sunday.
"Free time" is about to become a foreign concept, but that's good because that means things are happening. That's what movies feel like, and I've missed it. I used to wake up every morning thinking about a particular girl. Since I made a concerted effort to get over her, I usually wake up thinking about C&E, which is a marked improvement. I'll take being fixated on this film to being fixated on someone who doesn't want me any day.
I was about to close with the sentence, "a movie can't break your heart," but anybody who's ever made one knows that is completely untrue. If I had a heart to break, a movie I'm directing would be one of the few things able to do it.
Tonight was the first production meeting for Cowboys & Engines, a short you'll be hearing a lot more about over the coming weeks. This is a mainstream piece produced by my friend Charles Mead and another fellow who shall remain anonymous for the moment; written & directed by me, and worked on by most of my close friends in some capacity. I'm incredibly excited. I think this will be something we can all be extremely proud of when it's finished; something we can show at festivals and around town; something that might open doors for all of us.
I was supposed to get together with TQO after the meeting (her idea, much to my surprise) but she had a scene today and was exhausted. Instead, I went to Alcove with LL and got red velvet cake. And no, that isn't a euphemism for anything.
I'm also excited that my place is really coming together, and beginning to look like a living space. I've been busting ass for the last couple weeks, and it's paying off. Every time the MCWBT tries to take me down, I just go pick a spot to work on and by the time I'm done, it's gone. Now, if only my mother would stop calling to tell me about friends she's just discovered are dead. It's like she just now figured out we're all mortal… jeez…
All in all, I needed this night. I had lunch with Alice Saturday, which was great. Ink had to cancel at the last minute the night before, and I was a little cranky, so it was good to see a friend and just shoot the shit. Then, Saturday night, all hell broke loose.
I've been shutting Vega down over the past week because I feel (yes, I know you're reading this… everyone say "hi" to Vega) that she's gotten too hooked on me too quickly. After the experiences I had post-Alabama, I'm trying to be extremely careful of the emotional states of women I'm banging. Vega is 30, so she should know better, but the fact is, she has fallen right into a domestic pattern I find really uncomfortable. She wants to cook for me… wants me to stay over… wants me to bring my laundry…
To me, we went from "casual" to "serious" at a speed that raises some questions about Einstein's theory of general relativity. And while I've bitched — at length, I know, so fuck off — in this blog about tiring of being alone, this is just the wrong thing at the wrong time. Vega is great; she's smart, experienced, funny, and making every effort to be incredibly dirty… but that's the problem. I can tell she's making an effort. I don't want a woman to ask me to piss in her mouth to make me happy, I want her to ask me to piss in her mouth because it makes her clit hard.
So, Saturday night I canceled my Sunday date with Vega. And I was honest about the reasons.
Note to self: Never do that again.
To say she went ballistic is an understatement. Hell, "understatement" is an understatement. She refused to take "no" for an answer. From around 7 pm Saturday night until 1 am Monday morning, we fought. We fought over who could claim the disinterested high ground; over who is more emotionally damaged; over who has greater fear of intimacy; over who is less stable; even over who is the bigger pervert (c'mon. Really?)
If you're imagining we were calling each other these things, you're reading it backwards. It was a completely retarded, emotional bigger dick contest. If I claimed to be a psychological wreck, she would try to top me. If she identified as a sociopath, I would be right there to take the hill. It was one of the strangest, stupidest, most exhausting arguments I've ever been a party to, and it went on for hours. To make matters worse, the conflict was a cross-platform, multimedia event on an epic scale. We covered texting, phone calls, e-mail, IM chats, Facebook & Twitter.
After a Sunday afternoon lull during which I thought we'd agreed to disagree and let it go, Vega decided to come over. I told her no fucking way, and she was at my door 40 minutes later anyway. Not raging or crazy or out of control, just wanting to get dinner and make nice. So we did, and, naturally (Guys? Right?) it was a trap. A few not-so-subtle rejoinders, and we were off to the races once again. Finally, at 1 am, as a kind of peace accord (a la détente) I gave in and we fucked for two hours.
And, yes, it was awesome. We did several things she'd never done before (see the earlier paragraph for a hint), and she didn't try to stay. Still, I know she wanted me to ask her to stay. I haven't heard from her at all today. We'll see where this goes.
The worst part in all of it was the realization — a real eureka moment, complete with lighting bolt — that I have been Vega. Not long ago, I was in a similar situation, in reverse; I was the one wanting, but not wanted. As I sat through Vega talking and pleading and reasoning… vacillating between conciliatory and angry and jealous and cold… I understood that I had done the exact same things, over the space of months rather than hours, to the girl that wouldn't have me and I was suddenly viciously, mercilessly ashamed.
I was such a tool. Such an annoying, needy, wheedling dick. I'm moving on, so I think the worst of it is over, but just typing this now and thinking about it, I'm cringing and my stomach is in knots. Why — how — she still talks to me is a wonder. Women are simply more tolerant of egregious behavior in men. If they weren't, there wouldn't be a species.

Inauguration and Blessing of St. Paul's Church, Musaffah
20 May 2015 (Abu Dhabi).
The first Catholic Church in the UAE, St. Joseph's Abu Dhabi, was opened in February 1965, and March 2015 marked the Golden Jubilee celebrations of the event. The Ruling Family of the Emirate has always been generous and it was their graciousness in donating a piece of land to build a place of worship that thousands of faithful even today can enjoy a place of prayer and sanctuary.
50 years later, yet again we have experienced the kindness and open-handedness of the Rulers of the Emirate in the inauguration of the second Catholic Church dedicated to St. Paul in Abu Dhabi's industrial district of Musaffah. His Highness Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, the UAE Minister for Youth, Culture and Community Development will inaugurate the Church and premises on Thursday June 11 at 7.30 pm in the presence of Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Secretary of State of Pope Francis, Archbishop Petar Rajic, the Papal Nuncio and Delegate to the Arabian Peninsula and Bishop Camillo Ballin, Apostolic Vicar of Northern Arabia. The Presidential Adviser for Religious Affairs, H.E. Sheikh Ali Al Hashemi is also expected to be present along with other dignitaries, officials of the civil authorities, municipality, consultants and contractors.
This will be followed by the blessing of the Church in a solemn liturgical celebration on Friday, June 12 at 10 am with the Catholic community of Abu Dhabi. Nearly five thousand people are expected to attend.
The name of St. Paul has great significance in the history of the Catholic Church in the Gulf which is dedicated to the Apostles Peter and Paul who together laid the foundations of Christianity in the first century. The Apostle Paul was sent by Jesus Christ to bear His Name to the nations and was named by Jesus as a 'Vessel of Election', thus signifying his special commission to spread the aroma of the knowledge of Christ. Christians throughout the centuries gratefully remember this Apostle for the enduring foundations he laid for the practice of the Christian Faith. The Apostle Paul is also the patron saint of Bishop Paul Hinder, the Apostolic Vicar of Southern Arabia, who recently completed a decade of fruitful service as the shepherd of Catholics in the UAE, Oman and Yemen.
On this occasion, the Catholics in Abu Dhabi wish to express their sincere gratitude to the rulers of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the UAE; following the traditions laid by St. Paul, this Church will be indeed a place where
"petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings for everyone, including the citizens of this country and its rulers, for their peace and prosperity"
(1 Timothy 2:1-2) will be offered by worshippers to God.

Did you know February is American Heart Month sponsored by the American Heart Association? Heart month is a time to educate people on what we can do to prevent heart problems and live heart-healthy lives.
Heart disease is a major problem for both men and women in the United States. Every year, about 715,000 Americans suffer a heart attack. About 1 out of every 4 deaths is a result of heart disease, the leading cause of death for men and women in the US.
The good news? Heart disease is preventable. Improving your overall health will greatly reduce your risk of heart disease. Did you know having sufficient vitamin D levels may help?
Research has shown that vitamin D deficiency can actually increase your risk of heart disease. A recent Norwegian study found that people with the lowest vitamin D levels had a 32% greater risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease than those with the highest vitamin D levels.
Some lifestyle habits can put you at an increased risk for developing heart disease. Here are some useful tips to help you improve your heath and manage any existing medical conditions you may have.
- Eat a healthy diet– Eating a diet full rich with fruits and vegetables can help you avoid heart disease and many complications associated with the disease. Also, eat foots low in saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, and sodium.
- Maintain a healthy weight– Being overweight or obese can increase your risk for heart disease. If you know your height and weight, you can calculate your body mass index (BMI) here.
- Exercise regularly– Regular physical activity can help you achieve or maintain a healthy weight.
- Don't smoke– Smoking cigarettes greatly increases your risk for heart disease. We've all heart it a million times, but if you don't smoke, don't start, and if you do, quit ASAP!
- Limit alcohol use– Avoid drinking too much alcohol, as it can increase your blood pressure.
- Have your cholesterol checked– Your doctor should test your cholesterol levels at least once every 5 years.
- Manage your diabetes– If you have diabetes, monitor your blood sugar closely.
- And of course, make sure your vitamin D levels are sufficient! The Vitamin D Council recommends healthy adults supplement with 5,000 IU/day vitamin D3.
Take a look at our Heart Health infographic for some quick info on vitamin D and heart health. Remember to share with friends and family! View the infographic on Facebook to share online.

Check out our Forum Rules. Lets keep this forum an enjoyable place to visit.
Hello there. I have disappeared for some time due to my vacations (it's in a completely different time than other countries, I live in Brazil).
While on a trip, I left my violin on my parents' car's trunk so it wouldn't heat itself, but unfortunately it was so hot it didn't work and my violin unglued itself. I wanted to look for a Luthier, but they're seldomly found around my place, and they are really expensive, so I was thinking if there is any way for me to fix it myself.
I was lucky my sound post hasn't moved, but the back has unglued itself a little, as for the neck, it has unglued completely from my violin. I still have the bridge I used in it, stored. Here are some pics.
Skype: augustoad Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Phone number/whatsapp: +55 42 9861-4084. I'd be happy to talk anything fiddle-related to anyone! :)
Hi and yes, I have heard about the Brazilian heat! Probably fun around the ocean and you are not chopping ice off the sidewalk like I was today!
Your violin does not look too bad. I think the glue melted and separated at the natural seam parts without damaging the wood? You might get other opinions but mine is that you have another challenge ahead of you so that you can get back to practicing! Do you have some woodworking tools? My father showed me as a child how to install a neck on a violin and was always tinkering... so I guess I'm not as afraid of it as some people.
Lucky in this day and age, there are libraries of books full of violin building and even loads of videos out there for guidance. If you were going to make it perfect, it would have to be shipped somewhere (insured) or a professional luthier consulted. Lots of places will have a standard evaluation fee and recommend a course of action, like an auto repair place.
So I guess my own approach would be to remove all the old glue being careful not to scratch the wood, try out getting some hide glue and some clamps that are designed for violin work. The more you put into the violin the more you will love the instrument and it will become more and more a part of you.
Otherwise... it's off to the luthier for a professional repair... Don't take too much time off from practicing though!!
Mt. Fiddler
Yes, I'll try and do that. I probably won't find those clamps you told me about, but there's always a way to improvise. Thanks a lot, Mt. Fiddler!

How do you raise productivity, lower fuel costs and make your operators happier all at the same time? According to KJ Services Ltd, the answer is a brand-new work tool—the Cat® H130Es hammer.
The South Wales-based company recently purchased the new hammer primarily for its Cat 323D excavator, which it's using to break up limestone for a quarry customer.
"We have had some great feedback from the operator," says Jack Stephens, plant manager for KJ Services Ltd. "More importantly, our customer has seen real benefits, as we've been able to break down more rock within the allocated project time."
In fact, Stephens reports productivity gains of up to 20% using the H130Es hammer, which typically operates on 10-hour shifts, five days a week.
"In financial terms, our customer is now getting almost one day a week more activity from us due to the increase in productivity—of course, this will go straight to their bottom line," he says. "Equally for us, by opting for a three-year warranty supported by the Llantrisant Finning branch, we are able to reduce any downtime from what is already a reliable product. This ultimately means we are able to offer all of our customers a much better and more competitive service."
In terms of reliability, Stephens is a fan of the H130Es's automatic shut-off feature, which instantly stops the hammer when the tool breaks through material—eliminating the high internal stresses created by blank firing.
"To be honest, being able to tackle misfiring through the functionality of the new hammer was one of the main reasons we selected it," he says. "The hammer will only fire once the full weight is on the stone and then stops automatically."
Automatic shut-off is just one of the features operator Colin Morgan appreciates about the H130Es hammer, which he describes as "one of the best we've had." Fuel efficiency is another.
"It's running on half revs on the machine, which saves fuel and is more economical," Morgan says. "It's a lot more productive—a lot more."
It may seem simple, but when choosing work tools, it's important to know your machine configuration and the requirements of your application. That way you achieve the best productivity for your money.Read More
Add an H130Es hammer to your Cat® excavator and you have the perfect combination for quarry work, general demolition jobs, ground excavation, metallurgical debricking and cleaning castings.See Product Specs

Embedding Intrinsic Learning Behaviours
Nayland Primary School
Watch video
We continue to exceed national measures in all aspects, and our vulnerable learners and disadvantaged make exceptional progress
Need identified
Our school has been an outstanding school for over eleven years and during this time we have refined our practice to ensure excellent outcomes for all. Much of this is structured around 'Building Learning Powers', and our work has contributed to the resources for Guy Claxton.
We have embedded the following:
We are completely committed to the language of learning and children are explicitly taught how they learn;
Learning is collaborative at all levels. For instance, when working in small groups, children can readily identify where they have supported each other, or when they have been challenged to work collaboratively;
eachers have key principles that they stick to. They talk about learning, not subjects, and the children speak of what they are learning and how they are learning, rather than what they are doing;
Displays are constantly changed to reflect the learning of the children;
There are interactive opportunities all around the school, with displays reflecting questions and a sense of wonder;
The community is at the heart of the school, with volunteers being enlisted in lots of ways to build projects within the school. Outside space is as important as inside space;
Whilst we did have posters and displays which reinforced the BLP processes and language, we now don't, because the language and process is so embedded. This allows for creativity and fluidity in the classroom, although you will, when visiting, notice a consistency in the language used.
Resources Required
Initially, CPD for staff will be required. After that, since this is an approach rather than a specific programme, additional costs are minimal, but time to develop, re-evaluate and monitor is essential.
Worth Mentioning
Behaviour is exceptional. Children are creative and confident. There is a sense of no limit on the learning taking place.

Reagan Delaney at Nayland Primary School
Would be willing to be contacted to discuss further by other Headteachers

Would welcome visitors to the school to see the initiative in action or the outcomes

Nothing is ever known
like love,
is a recurring
theme in poetry.
The enigma
of the ignored,
or the unknown,
has touched the
most lucid and
wisest writers of
all the ages on earth.
For Novalis,
an enraptured mystic,
poetry would often
reveal itself through
sleep and the night.
Rimbaud, in his famous
letter of the seer,
sought poetry
in the atmosphere
of the unknown.
Sartre inverted, in his novel
Nausea and the short stories
of The Wall, the Cartesian
axiom of I think,
then I exist.
And Camus didn't like
to think that death opened
another life. "For me
–he sustained–it's a closed
door." All
the religions
of humanity, for a long
time, have occupied themselves
with these insoluble
enigmas. Each sacred
book offers conceptions
of the most diverse sign,
which suggests
that none of them
have the absolute truth.
There are many discrepancies.
The fight against the ignored,
or the unknown,
in the end always
turns out to be perverse.
There are no possible exits.
No one is known
to have returned
from the other world to tell
the events of his death.
Life is a prospect
without return. No one
has been able to tell
its actual story.
All the religions
offer us dreamed
paradises, so sublime
as to never
believe in them.
Nothing is ever known.
