Linda's next collaboration would launch her career
into the stratosphere.
I was growing a lot as an artistand feeling out what my sound
was going to be, andLinda when I met her
It was just pure honesty.
And I said, for what it's worth,I would use that darkness in
you and she was looking at me.
You know, likeexcuse me, what darkness?
I go the darknessthat you're hiding.
♪ And now and thenI get insecure ♪
♪ From all the pain I'm so ashamed ♪
She started playing "Beautiful"and singing it and I just froze.
I immediately connected with it.
It brought tears to my eyes.
♪ And words can'tbring me down. ♪
Christina's going to try tosing a song, and she's very shy.
A lot of people don't know that.
And she's like,don't look at me.
It gave me chills becauseshe revealed her vulnerability.
Don't look at me.
I knew the song was hers.
She introduced me to a whole newside of myself and my voice and
for that I'm truly gratefulto this amazing woman
Miss Linda Perry canI introduce to you.
♪ You are beautiful.
♪ No matter what they say.
♪ Words can't bring you down
The empowering theme of "Beautiful" was embraced
by music fans everywhere, and it became
Christina Aguilera's signature song.
The single went platinum.
Hit number one in seven countries and won Christina
a Grammy for best pop vocal performance.
Thank you, Linda Perry.
Linda Perry for writing anincredible amazing song.
Thank you so much forletting me sing this song.
Thank you so much.
[guitar music]
Linda had achieved morethan she'd ever dreamed.
But with success,came complications.
I took it really personallywhen she started working
with other artists.
Particularly, artiststhat I didn't like.
I don't think imitation isthe highest form of flattery.
I think it's annoying.
She was jealous, and justdidn't like me working with
Christina because shefelt she discovered me.
There's a loyalty therethat she felt I broke.
She started spouting off at themouth about me in the public
and I took thatreally personally.
I duked it out a coupleof times with her about it,
and then we got over it.
Little does Alisha knowthat I thank her all the time.
She was ballsy enough to bringme into her world and say
"Let's do something,because I believe in you."
While Linda and Pink eventuallyrepaired their friendship,
professionally, theywent their separate ways.
Linda became of the most sought-after producers
in pop music.
Working with a diverse list of hit makers, including Courtney
love, Alisha Keys, James Blunt, and Gwen Stefani.
♪ Still a super hot female
♪ You got your milliondollar contract ♪
When Linda is in the studio,that's her natural habitat.
That's where shecan do anything.
And that's where I thinkshe's the most comfortable
in her skin.
She has this uncanny knackof channeling the artist.
She can take on this artisticpersona and write them
a song that they can'twrite for themselves.
Which is a very, very rare gift.
I'm not great at music.
I'm not.
I'm good at it, butI'm not great at it.
What I'm great at is helpingother people learn how
to create who they are.
That's what I'm good at.

An MMO is one of the biggest gambles a gaming company can make these days, and as SWTOR has proven, the size or reputation of the studio doesn't make for an automatic winner. It's kind of nice to see the free to play MechWarrior Online doing well, then: though the game hasn't launched yet, eager series fans have put down a total of $5 million toward the Founder's Program, which grants beta access and a variety of bonuses that vary per tier.
While developer Piranha Games and its Canadian publisher Infinite are far from the home stretch even at $5 million, it's likely well beyond their expectations at this stage, and that bodes well for the future.

BG claims LHAC title
JOHNSTOWN – With 1:50 remaining in the first half of Saturday's Laurel Highlands Athletic Conference girls championship game between Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic and Westmont Hilltop, the Lady Hilltoppers had played an even game with the Lady Marauders with the game tied, 11-11.
Westmont then missed the front end of two one-and-one opportunities and committed a turnover in its final three possessions of the half that proved to be costly as Bishop Guilfoyle went on to defeat Westmont Hilltop, 42-28, at the Richland Sports Center.
Guilfoyle's Brittany Boslet hit a baseline jumper after the first one-and-one miss, Elyssa Ehredt made two free throws off of the second miss and followed up with a layup after the final turnover as the Lady Marauders escaped with a six-point lead at the break.
"We got off to a rugged start with Kayla [Bates] picking up two fouls," Bishop Guilfoyle coach Mark Moschella said. "It knocked us back a couple steps until we could regroup."
Guilfoyle (21-2) struggled from the field in the first half, as Moschella credited the Lady Hilltoppers (19-4).
"We came in tonight to play a good team," Moschella said. "Westmont had a lot to do with us not shooting well."
The Lady Marauders were also battling some issues off of the court, with Bates and Halee Adams not at full strength.
"Kayla had a viral infection and wasn't able to practice [this week]," Moschella said. "Halee was also trying to overcome some pain she's having in her knee."
"We didn't take advantage in the first half with Bates in foul trouble," Westmont Hilltop coach Jodi Hillegass said. "Adams wasn't playing much either, and we missed some key one-and-ones."
After scoring six straight to end the first half, the Lady Marauders carried that momentum into the second half.
BG outscored Westmont in the third quarter, 15-6, with Adams starting and scoring eight of her nine points in the frame.
"We became more patient [in the third quarter]," Moschella said. "We started running our offense and endured more success with our shooting percentage."
Ehredt led Guilfoyle with 10 points, Adams finished with nine, and Devin Stessney chipped in eight.
"They don't make many mistakes," Hillegass said. "They are seasoned and play a solid consistent game with all of their seniors playing together for years."
While the Guilfoyle offense was suspect to start, its defensive effort put it in position to succeed once again.
"They play tough man-to-man defense," Hillegass said. "They took us out of our rhythm."
Westmont's bright spot was senior guard Erin Rodgers, who had a game-high 17 points, scoring 13 of the Lady Hilltoppers' 17 second-half points.
The Lady Marauder third quarter gave them a 15-point lead with a quarter to play, as they cruised to their third LHAC championship in four years, while Westmont has lost in the final the last three years.
"I feel great for the senior group," Moschella said. "I feel we can grow from this and go into the playoffs with a good head of steam."
Guilfoyle will wait to see who it will play in the District 6-A quarterfinals, as it faces the winner of Williamsburg and United, which will be played on Monday.

A visual history of Bloor Street
A comment containing a great photo of the old sign at Duffy's Tavern on our post yesterday inspired me to fill in yet another gap in our series of historical posts about Toronto: Bloor Street. Although we've devoted some attention to the intersection of Yonge & Bloor, the rest of the street hasn't received its well-deserved time in the spotlight. That's a bit of an oversight when you consider just how important an artery it is for this city.
I suspect, however, that Bloor gets somewhat overlooked when talking about Toronto's grand streets because north/south corridors like Yonge and Spadina played a more important role in the early development of the city. When Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe created Toronto's Park Lots in the 1790s, Bloor was the northern terminus of the long narrow estates that would eventually determine the general shape of the downtown streetscape.
Looking at photos of Bloor in the early 20th century, one realizes that the street didn't become the busy thoroughfare we know today until around the 1920s — and even then, the density was limited to the central stretch between Sherbourne and Bathurst or so.
Further to the west near High Park, the area around Bloor was downright bucolic. But you'd have to pass the industrial hub around Lansdowne on your way to the tranquil looking Mineral Baths, which are sadly long gone. On the other side of the city, the street actually terminated at Sherbourne prior to the construction of the Bloor Viaduct, at which time a section of the Rosedale ravine was filled in connecting taking the street southeast to Parliament and then across the two valleys to the Danforth.
Along with the completion of the viaduct, the other watershed moment in the street's history was surely the arrival of the subway in 1966 (subsequently to be extended further east and west in 1968 and 1980). Although Bloor was already an important street at the time, the presence of the subway still brought about profound intensification. Take a look at the Ellis Wiley photo looking west at Bay in 1970. The scene is almost unrecognizable.
Other parts of the street retain a more obvious link with the past, like the dominance of Honest Ed's at Bloor and Bathurst (though the current sign dates back to the 1970s) or the newly restored Bloor (Hot Docs) Cinema. Bloor may not reveal much connection with the past along the unfortunately named Mink Mile, but further to the east and west, there's lots of the old character of the street still on display.

Btw, Derek, any chance of a Visual History of Cabbagetown?
I love these old shots! Thanks!
You are talking about streetcars when parts of Bloor still had dirt roads- yeah it was amazing then but times change and Toronto has exploded in size. Totally doubtless that the Bloor line helped build that growth and population density through the strip of the city it services, and then all the shops, services and businesses that follow areas of density. There is no way more streetcars could ever handle the sort of city Toronto should want to become, instead of being a stunted suburban sprawl.
I think far more aesthetic damage was done by the loss of the cobblestone ROW down the length of Bloor. This would have slowed traffic and beautified the street. Just visit the Meatpacking District in Manhattan today to see how cobblestone streets and high-end retail work beautifully together. (And being only the median, bikes in the right lanes would have been unaffected.) Although I understand the removal of the streetcar tracks (perhaps unnecessarily, see Market St in San Francisco) the cobblestones should have stayed.
My father had said that Bloor in the central core c. Sherbourne to Spadina was widened from the 66 feet to its present width in the 1930s, parts of which remain nearly 6 lanes wide with no bike lanes. And he grew up nearby and used Bloor, and is there confirmation of this widening around?
The footprint of the baths became a subway train storage area just south of the subway train tracks between Dundas and Keele stations. That was the area where the old Gloucester Cars were stored.
Historical forms of street paving is a topic that I'm interested in and researching right now. There are some great resources out there, but it doesn't seem to have been a topic that was on anyone's radar for a long time, so it takes some digging to find materials which show paving inadvertently. Paving entire streets that way can transform their atmosphere and sense of place. In Toronto, we had many brick streets at the turn of the 20th century, and even a few streets paved entirely with stone blocks, not just the streetcar tracks. Sometimes our history is sadly denigrated because of a lack of preservation and even in a bid to justify not preserving, but Toronto was a substantial city at the turn of the 20th century; these beautiful ways of paving streets are testament to our city's character at an important point in time and ought to be preserved and restored.
So many childhood memories!
Having resided in several of the areas listed, most notably my years in the service 1897 through 1910, when the root vegetable was a more prominent sight on the food carts than it is today. The author mentions transportation links for which simply were not mentioned back then under anything deeper than a whisper in fear of being labeled a wealth monger and having ones food allowance card revoked. Trams and turnips were rarely an option to pair, it was one or the other, I imagine the decrease in root vegetables popularity and the increase in public transportation commuting stemmed from this fascinating chapter in our shared local history.
Can't be right. Look at the cars. And of course there were no Bloor streetcars in the 70s after the BD subway opened.
"Bloor Subway near Lansdowne looking west, 1931 (you can get a similar view today from the West Toronto Rail Path)"
The info in brackets is entirely wrong. The railpath runs across the next subway to the west of this pic, West of Symington. The building on the right (North side with the 'Meredith..." sign and the door to the new sidewalk) is the most obvious feature still in existence.
But great post anyway, thanks!
Today we are stuck with plain Jane slabs of concrete and glass soaring to great heights in the name of corporate arrogance.
This trip down memory lane was refreshing and most enjoyable.
Thank you again for sharing.
The very first one of Duufy's Tavern ( north side of Blloor , one or two blocks west of Pauline Ave. but east of Lansdowne, reminds me of 1967-68 when I started teaching at Pauline School, and drop in at
Dufffy's during my 75 minute lunch on Fridays to have a hot beef sandwich ($1.50) and a couple of drafts at 25 cents each, followed by a strong mouthwash to get ready for an afternoon of teaching.(as a rookie teacher I earned under $5000 a year, which was less than a caretaker made! But I only paid $135 a month for a. 1 bedroom apt. In Etobicoke . Like most young teachers, I drove a Volkswagen beetle.
My only quibble with the pictures is that of the PCC tandem streetcars headed for Jane and Bllorr in the 1970's supposedly. does not jive with the Bloor subway dates in the 1960's, as I recall!?

RO 22735, (at Ruby Sills place) that was good times.
The ice-cold winters (ice-skating on the Humber river) and the heat summers yes, it was good times.
I drove an old Oldsmobile (with plenty of space) and my friends thought it was "cool stuff". Going to parties, cities, Niagara Falls, friends homes, broken dating (broken hearts), and a rock faith in the future.
It was primetime. To day, 50 years later; it is good to see the photos. All the memories comes back. How did it go with her, my dating (a few)? How and who is still back there?
All my stuff I had to leave back, when I left for new adventures. "the world is not enough".
So, how are all of you still living there and those of you who also left? I think I left a broken heart (sorry) and some of my heart as well.
What would have happened if I did stay? Now, I wish all of you people "all the best", and my good friends from that time; I love you and I think about you and I miss you. And Toronto West; I miss you too.

Came As described and Tina was wonderful to deal with. My best Etsy experience so far!
Scandinavian style is in my soul
I am swedish. So I was brought up in a true Ikea home, complete with the bookshelf Billy and everything. White furniture, white walls.
The keep it simple, scandianvian style, is deeply rooted in my soul. And this is why it all started a few years ago.
I wanted to buy a necklace. It was almost summer and I was going on vacation. I went from shop to shop looking for something small that could go with many outfits. But I came up empty.
I just couldn't find anything in my style.
I ended up at a pearl shop, buying my own black beads and thread. Designing and creating my own necklace. Then suddenly I made one more, and one more.
Soon I had so many necklaces I couldn't wear them myself. So I started selling them. At first to family and friends, and later to everyone – here on Etsy.
Many of my items are black and white, but just sometimes something colorful comes out... Well, those I blame them on aniT, my alter ego who sometimes just goes crazy.
I am also the owner of the card shop Avenir cards that can be found here: http://avenircards.etsy.com
I hope you find something you like,

The EUR/JPY pair fell during the Monday session as the 100 handle continued to offer resistance. We suspect that a pullback to the 99 level was in the works, as it would suggest to us that more buyers would need to step in order to push this market higher.
This would surprise us, as this market has had a nice run over the last couple of months, and certainly traders out there are noticing it. However, there is a lot to chew through on the upside as far as resistance, and it will take quite a bit of a fight. More and more buyers need to step in order to push prices higher, and as a result this could be a bit of a struggle going forward.
For the short-term, we suggest that this pair will fall to the 99 handle, and then look for support. Depending on your time frame, you could sell this pair for a quick 80 pip game, ending turn around and flip the trade. We think this will be a very volatile currency pair, as it tends to follow the "risk on, risk off" attitude of the markets. With this in mind, this may be a better short-term traders market.

The Sweetest Victory
All hail the mighty cupcake. Theres no baked dessert thats more evocative of childhood innocence. Cupcakes take you back to the days of bruised knees and bake sales. Barbie Roqueta, owner of Sweetcakes Edibles, totally gets it. Her adorable little uptown bakery features 10 different kinds each day; when we caught up with her, the variety included Nutella. Mmmm.
Roqueta bakes up to 100 combinations of miniature moist cakes covered with sweet frosting. Why cupcakes? Theres the nostalgia attached to it, the ease of it. And our Cupcake Bingo Nights are a fun way to get to know people. Its so much better than going to some happy hour with a bunch of random strangers, she says. For $15, you get to play unlimited bingo, complete with cool retro cards. You get two or three mini drunken cupcakes and a complimentary cocktail of the evening. Swing by and stuff your cakehole Wednesday night. The games begin at 7 and typically end by 9. We kick everyone out by 10, says Roqueta.

It's obvious that you love your instrument. You spent a lot of time checking out the different options to find the one that just "clicked" with your playing style and attitude, and now you're ready to rock. Or are you? See, it takes more than just a great instrument to hit the stage and change the world of popular music forever; you're also going to need some accessories. And regardless of which accessories you need, the odds are that you will be able to find them in this section.
Ask any musician and they will tell you they're only as good as their accessories. That's because great accessories can keep your instrument safe, and also enhance it when you're on the stage, in the studio, or just jamming at home.
So which accessories are right for you? Well, obviously that comes down to need and personal preference. There is no right or wrong answer, and there are literally thousands of options available here. For example, are you looking for a case to store your guitar? Then you may want to check out the Deluxe Electric Guitar Case from Musician's Gear or the Les Paul Hardshell Case from Epiphone. Maybe you'd rather a stand than a case? Then have a look at the GS525B Five-Instrument Guitar Rack from Hercules Stands or the Tubular Guitar Stand from Musician's Gear. Any of these stands and cases would be a worthy addition to any guitar player's collection.
Of course, we also carry cables for microphones, speakers, guitars, basses, and just about anything else that requires one. We have tuners such as the SN-1 Guitar and Bass Tuner from Snark and the DT-10 Digital Pedal Tuner from Korg. You'll even find desks for the recording studio and music stands for the orchestra in this section. Some of our top brands for Accessories are Musicians Gear, Planet Waves, Seymour Duncan, D'Addario, Mogami, and much more. Accessories are absolutely integral items for any musician. Take a look around, find the perfect items for you, and watch as your skills truly begin to flourish.

Catalan Cuisine: Europe's Last Great Culinary SecretColman Andrews
Catalonia, located in Spain's far north-east corner and centred around the port of Barcelona, has its own cuisine and culture which has spread to encompass Valencia, the Balearic Islands (Majorca, Minorca and Ibiza), Andorra, the ancient region of France formerly known as Roussilon, and a single city on the Italian island of Sardinia. Colman Andrews explores this whole territory of Catalan cooking, from its French, Roman and Moorish roots to today's modern interpretation. Along the way he creates a portrait of the food, wine, history and culture of the region.

Steubenville High continues in Ohio mock trial competition
STEUBENVILLE – Members of the Steubenville High School mock trial team will move on to the regional competition following a double victory last week at the Columbiana County Courthouse in Lisbon.
Coach and high school teacher Cherie Metcalf said the high school team won both cases during the competition on Friday.
"We will now move on to the regional competition which is set for Feb. 22 at the Summit County Courthouse in Akron," she said.
"The Ohio Mock Trial Program, established by the Ohio Center for Law-Related Education in 1983, is a statewide educational program designed to allow students to become aware of their constitutional rights and responsibilities. It provides students the opportunity to learn firsthand about the law, court procedures and the judicial system while also building interpretation, critical thinking and public speaking skills. Students who compete in the mock trial program come away with a greater understanding of not only the principles our legal system was founded on, but of themselves and the skills they possess," explained Metcalf.
"Each year volunteer attorneys write a legally authentic case involving a constitutional issue that is relevant to students' own personal experiences. Training is offered to teachers to help them use the constitutional case materials in their classrooms and give instruction in methods of preparing students to present mock trials. Teachers have the option of entering a team or teams of five to 11 students in an annual statewide academic competition coordinated by OCLRE," said Metcalf.
The state competition will be held in Columbus in March. The winner of the state competition then advances to the national competition, which is held in late spring.
According to Metcalf, every team presents their case once as the plaintiff or prosecution and once as the defense. Two attorneys, two witnesses and one bailiff-timekeeper will compete for each team in each trial. The competition is governed by a modified version of the Ohio Rules of Evidence and the Mock Trial Rules of Competition.
"Our case was the State of Ohio vs. Dakota Allen, a high school sophomore who was suspected of setting a fire at the school that resulted in the death of a maintenance worker. The police then engage in a lengthy interrogation process that involves driving to the scene of the crime and the victim's home as well as various interrogation techniques. Late in the day, the defendant makes a statement claiming responsibility for the fire and is subsequently charged with murder and arson. However, the defendant later recants the confession. The defendant has alleged that the statements were improperly coerced by the police in violation of the 5th and 14th Amendments and filed a motion to suppress," noted Metcalf.
"The Steubenville High School Mock Trial team won all possible awards. The best defense attorney went to Allie Zimish, and the best defense witness was Nicole Prichard. The best prosecution attorney was Alex Isla, and the best prosecution witness was Serena Lewis," Metcalf said.
"Special thanks goes to Judge David Scarpone for his legal guidance and assistance in preparation of our case," Metcalf added.

From the bookForeword
Fong See, my great-grandfather, left China in 1871 as a youngster, found prosperity on the Gold Mountain (the Chinese name for the United States), and lived to reach his hundredth birthday. Rising out of a mass of nameless Asian immigrants, he became one of the richest and most prominent Chinese in the country. He lured customers into his Asian art store by selling tickets to see a stuffed mermaid. He loved money, and had a childlike enthusiasm for fancy cars. He also had a way with women. My family always "knew" that Fong See had two wives. The marriage between Fong See and Letticie Pruett—my Caucasian great-grandmother—would go on to establish the See name. The second wife, a Chinese waif who had supported herself making firecrackers, was only sixteen when she married my great-grandfather, who was sixty-four at the time. This family always lived under the name of Fong. Altogether, Fong See sired twelve children—five Eurasian, seven Chinese—the last born when he was in his late eighties. This is the story of the Sees and the Fongs and how they assimilated into America.
As a girl, I spent frequent weekends and most of my summer vacations with my paternal grandparents in Chinatown. We would pass through a moon gate guarded by two huge stone lions and enter the dark, cool recesses of our family's Chinese antique store, the F. Suie One Company, a gigantic mercantile museum that contained, among other things, porcelains taken from the royal kiln and floated downriver on sampans; altars pillaged from provincial temples; and huge architectural carvings shipped in sections to be reconstructed by Fong See's sons in one of his many warehouses.
At lunchtime, Grandma Stella and I would walk up the street to a restaurant that must have had a real name but that we just called "the little place." Along the way we'd stop to chat with Blackie at the Sam Sing Butcher Shop, with its gold-leafed roast pig in the window. We'd stop in at Margaret's International Grocery and brose through the aisles with their salted plums, dried squid, and fermented tofu. At the restaurant, we'd go back to the kitchen to chat with the cook and watch as he packed up our order into cartons.
Once back at the store, I'd go upstairs to the workroom, with its huge machinery and its pinups of sedate Chinese maidens, where my grandfather and great-uncle Bennie would be engulfed by dense clouds of sawdust and the din of saws. Bennie would invariably look at me wild-eyed and shout, "I'm gonna put you in the trash can." Terrified, I'd scramble back downstairs and my grandfather and uncle would wash up with Lava soap.
After lunch, if I got bored—perhaps after playing in the mountains of straw packing, or climbing into the arms of a gigantic Buddha, or making a fort underneath one of the large altars—Grandma Stella would let me "help" her while she worked on the restoration of a coromandel screen. I might clean brushes or mix ink; sometimes she let me use my fingertips to press clay into the chipped areas. Or I might help my great-aunt Sissee as she dusted and polished her way from the bronze room to the art room to the room for scrolls and fabrics, and from one end of the main hall—which held exquisitely carved furniture—to the other.
In the late afternoons, my grandmother and great-aunt Sissee would relax in wicker chairs in the back of the store over cups of strong tea. During that quiet and comfortable time they would reminisce about the past. They told intriguing and often silly stories about missionaries, prostitutes, tong wars, the all-girl drum corps, and the all-Chinese baseball team. They spoke about how the family...

Mariachi are famous the world over. However, Mexican music has a long history that extends far beyond them. This museum will open your eyes to the country's rich musical heritage.
San Gervasio Ruins
A beautiful site full of Mayan ruins and home to a large iguana population, San Gervasio offers the perfect combination of natural spectacle and historical discovery.
El Mirador
This magnificent beach with its impressive limestone formations offers some of the most stunning views on the entire island—the ideal spot to snap that perfect holiday picture!
Discover Mexico Cozumel Park
The Discover Mexico Cozumel Park is the island's only theme park, where visitors are given fun and interactive tours through diverse aspects of Mexican history and culture.
Palancar Reef
The world-famous Palancar Reef is synonymous with Cozumel. An absolutely spectacular diving and snorkeling spot, Palancar Reef belongs on every visitor's itinerary.
Weather-wise, the best time to visit Cozumel is between the late autumn and early spring, when temperatures remain warm and dry. That said, this is also the peak season, so the island is at its most crowded. If you'd rather avoid the rush but still want to enjoy good weather, your best bet is late spring, before the start of the rainy season in June.
Scooters are a fun and highly popular way to get around the island. There are many rental places, with rates around $20-30 per day. However, make sure to exercise care as crashes are very frequent amongst tourists. Wearing a helmet is not only a good idea, but legally mandatory (police are on the look-out for riders without helmets and the fine is $25).

Press Release
Prat Structures Avancées (Toulouse) signature fabric architecture for the new Marrakech Station (le Gare de Marrakech).
The new Marrakech rail station, designed by Youssef Méléhi (Rabat), is already regarded for the beauty of its architecture. The fine construction of fabric architecture protects the large square and the train platforms; this product is a signature of Prat Structures Avancées, Toulouse engineering office, in collaboration with the architect and affiliated enterprise Jet-Alu et Ametema (Rabat).
In the shape of an impluvium, the octagonal covers measure 15mx15m and are raised 12m high. The resilient and elastic MagicSpring (system patented by Prat SA) gives the textile membrane Ferrai Précontraint 1202 a remarkable tension, perfect folds and guaranteed to last. The brown covers selected for the low impluvium and the arcs by the architect Méléhi are an allegory clearly dedicated to the palm groves of Marrekech.
