Her girl friends, whom I had looked forward to meet, proved on the whole disappointing. There was Opal Something, and Linda Hall, and Avis Chapman, and Eva Rosen, and Mona Dahl (save one, all these names are approximations, of course).

Everyday Antisemitism. Jew Hate in San Francisco

Antisemitic propaganda has moved from the social media into our neighborhoods. From the NextDoor Neighborhood App Posted earlier today. I picked up 20 of these weighted baggies filled with antisemitic COVID propaganda at ~8:30am today along Pacific Ave. (mostly between Baker and Scott). There were quite a few more I couldn't grab. Apparently the acting organization (Goyim Defense League) has carried out the same campaign several times in Berkeley (beginning during the week of Hanukkah). I texted SFPD's tipline with pictures; not sure if there's anything else I should do? Check your lawns, driveways, and sidewalks if you live nearby!

If you receive one of this packets, please report it to the ADL's tipline. And please check your security cameras for footage of those spreading this trash.

Islamic Jihad glorifies terror: The Beit Lid Massacre

Posted: 23 Jan 2022 06:15 PM PST

This week in 1995, a bomb exploded at the Beit Lid junction near Netanya, killing 18 soldiers and one civilian.

Ohad Sahar Ha Levi described the scene

On January 22,1995, as an 18 year old soldier in the paratroops (Force 202), I stood waiting at Beit Lid Junction. A few moments after 9 o’clock am two suicide bombers dressed as soldiers infiltrated the military bus station where hundreds of young soldiers waited to go to their bases. In one last moment, where I remember talking to a fellow soldier, a massive explosion of a suicide bomber ripped all our lives apart. A second attacker exploded a few minutes later as medical personal had already responded to the scene. I cannot explain to you the casualty I saw this day, or what it means to see and feel 22 young soldiers blown apart

The soldiers killed were: Lt. David Ben-Zino, 20, of Ashdod; Lt. Adi Rosen, 20, of Moshav Bitzaron; Lt. Yuval Tuvya, 22, of Jerusalem; Sgt.-Maj. Anan Kadur, 24, of Daliat al-Carmel; Staff-Sgt. Damian Rosovski, 20, of Kadima; Staff-Sgt. Yehiel Sharvit, 21, of Haifa; Staff-Sgt. Yaron Blum, 20, of Jerusalem; Sgt. Maya Kopstein, 19, of Jerusalem; Sgt. Daniel Tzikuashvili, 19, of Jerusalem; Sgt. Avi Salto, 19, of Rishon Lezion; Sgt. Rafael Mizrahi, 19, of Ramat Gan; Sgt. Eran Gueta, 20, of Ashkelon; Cpl. Soli Mizrahi, 18, of Ramat Ramat Gan; Cpl. David Hasson, 18, of Ashkelon; Cpl. Amir Hirschenson, 18, of Jerusalem; Cpl. Gilad Gaon, 18, of Herzliya; Cpl. Ilie Dagan, 18, of Kochav Yair; Cpl. Eitan Peretz, 18, of Nahariya; and Shabtai Mahpud, 34, of Moshav Tnuvot. Moments after the first bomb went off, a second was detonated, in an attempt to kill first responders rushing to the scene.

Lt. Eyal Levy, 20, of Ashdod, and Cpl. Yaniv Weiser, 18, of Givatayim, who were seriously wounded in the attacks, later died of their wounds. Dozens more were seriously wounded.

Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack.

On the anniversary of the attack, Islamic Jihad took to social media, bragging of the "heroic martyrdom operation". No regrets, no talk of peace, just raw glorification of violence and terror.

For Islamic Jihad and those that chose a life of terror the young Israeli lives lost, and the shattered families are a source of pride and inspiration. This vile glorification of violence hasn't abated in 27 years.

NOTES: Beautiful HD capture of one of the Final Dress Rehearsals. Top notch production and thrilling performances from Alice, Keaton, and the whole cast! This is quite a unique capture since it was the first time the blood was dropped. Too many amazing things to point out here, don't miss this one!!! A+ Well filmed with a nice mix of close-ups and full stage shots and no obstructions. Based on the revised Off-Broadway version, and presented at the Balagan Theatre. Because this was recorded at the final run-through prior to opening night, there are a few “holds” as they worked out any kinks: * After “Evening Prayers” there is a hold to change all microphone batteries, resulting in most of the song being run a second time (the sound check was removed and put as a bonus at the end of act two). * During the scene where Carrie is getting ready for the prom a microphone made a "farting" noise and Alice grabbed her butt and said "sorry" which made the cast and tech crew laugh.

Carrie: The Musical - Seattle - October 13, 2013 (Pro-Shot's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (SD)

NOTES: One of the first regional productions of the revised Carrie. Good to have Ripley in something.

FORMAT: MP4 (SD)

CAST: Julie Kleiner (Carrie White), Vivienne Cleary (Margaret White), Nina Sturtz (Miss Gardner), Kaily Smith (Chris), Erin Evers (Sue), Blair Late (Tommy)

NOTES: Another abridged version. Video suffers from gen loss but has cleaned up decently. Piano is the only instrument in the orchestra, and it drowns out some of the singers. This has been incorrectly labelled as an authorized production,which is incorrect - this was an unauthorized production (e.g., no rights were secured before the production), though Gore (and Cohen) were in the audience of this performance and chose not to sue Jeff Murphy and Stagedoor over copyright infringement, partly because Gore said he had always wanted to see the show done with actual teenagers (reported by Jeff Murphy, the director).

Carrie: The Musical - Stratford-Upon-Avon - February 16, 1988 (Preview) (Pro-Shot's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (SD)

CAST: Linzi Hateley (Carrie White), Barbara Cook (Margaret White), Sally Ann Triplett (Sue Snell), Paul Gyngell (Tommy Ross), Charlotte d'Amboise (Chris Hargensen), Gene Anthony Ray (Billy Nolan), Darlene Love (Lynn Gardner)

NOTES: Filmed professionally for the RSC archives on the third night of the performance (February 16, 1988). Shot from first row mezzanine center with no obstructions with audio taken directly from the soundboard. Mostly a full stage shots without zooms. This is usually incorrectly labelled as "Opening Night (February 13, 1988)", which is incorrect, as on opening night, Barbara Cook was almost decapitated right after the set changes from "Don't Waste The Moon", which not seen in this video (also verified by the person who copied this from the archives).

Catch Me If You Can - Seattle, WA (Pre-Broadway) - August 4, 2009 (SunsetBlvd79's master)

Catch Me If You Can - Seattle, WA (Pre-Broadway) - August 15, 2009

NOTES: Some very quick blackouts, none last more than 30 seconds or so.Very little obstruction, just heads on the bottom and the right, mostly in wideshots, and they're hardly noticeable.

NOTES: Fun show with very imaginative staging, though I do wish they used more songs from (either) movie. The first 5 minutes of Act One has some wandering and blackouts, but after that it is a steady and unobstructed shot. Includes curtain call.

Chasing Rainbows - Paper Mill Playhouse - October, 2019 (StarCuffedJeans's master)

CAST: Karen Mason (Ma Lawlor), Stephen DeRosa (LB Mayer), Colin Hanlon (Roger Edens), Karen Mason (Kay Koverman), Ruby Rakos (Judy Garland), Lesli Margherita (Ethel Gumm), Max von Essen (Frank Gumm), Michael Wartella (Mickey Rooney)

NOTES: Great HD capture of this Judy Garland bio musical focusing on her early years, leading up to The Wizard of Oz, with a couple of fun tap numbers! Act One starts when Judy sings a version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow (same tune but with different lyrics). Act Two starts part way through the number right before they enter the MGM studio. Please do not post screenshots of this video on Twitter ever. Gifs on Tumblr are okay after the NFT date, but don't go linking things to actors and shows.

The Cher Show - Broadway - April, 2019 (StarCuffedJeans's master)

NOTES: Beautiful HD close-ups but some long drop-outs and quite a few obstructed scenes. The rake in the mezzanine at the Neil Simon kinda stinks and I'm pretty sure the ushers were playing flashlight tag with each other the entire show. but I began to care a lot less as the night went on Video is very Cher-centric...choreography in "Dark Lady" is captured beautifully, but for the rest of the show I was mostly focused on getting those Stephanie, Teal, and Micaela zooms. We start at the scene before "Half Breed" and when Stephanie tells everyone to stand up for the finale it's all over for my filming ability.

NOTES: The original Broadway cast filmed prior to moving to Broadway. Professionally filmed using multiple cameras for the Lincoln Center Theatre on Film and Tape (TOFT) archives. Newly surfaced video which is a HUGE improvement over the previous version which has been in circulation for a while. This is also complete and includes the opening announcement alerting the audience that the show is being filmed. Amazing quality, but still has a little generational loss. In black and white. The DVD has been enhanced with chapter stops for all of the musical numbers. This, along with the tapes of Crazy for You and Passion, is amongst the only three TOFT tapes that have been leaked.

NOTES: This is the performance following the day Fantasia missed two performances from "Food Poisioning", which made the Chicagoland News. Despite that, she still gives a great performance as Celie and has such a powerful voice. Reva knocks it out of the park as Shug! A

CAST: Zoe Gertz (Beverley/Annette & others), Douglas Hansell (Kevin T./Garth & others), Richard Piper (Claude & others), Simon Maiden (Oz & others), Sarah Morrison (Janice & others), Nicholas Brown (Kevin J./Ali & others), Nathan Carter (Nick/Doug & others), Katrina Retallick (Diane & others), Sharriese Hamilton (Hannah & others), Emma Powell (Beulah & others), Kellie Rode (Bonnie & others), Kolby Kindle (Bob & others)

NOTES: HD capture of the Australian company of this fantastic musical. Includes a video of a post-show Q&A with the cast in honour of the 18th anniversary of September 12. Shot from the back row of the dress circle, so a head blocks the centre at times but it’s shot around where possible. Most noticeable in the group numbers where a lot of the action is downstage. The first 4 minutes or so is mostly wandering shots as I was setting up my camera and evading ushers. A lot of great close-ups - Zoe’s “Me and the Sky” is a highlight.

Come From Away - Toronto - January 7, 2020 (The Musical Speakeasy's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (HD)

CAST: Eliza-Jane Scott (Beverley/Annette & others), Jeff Madden (Kevin T./Garth & others), George Masswohl (Claude & others), Cory O’Brien (Oz & others), Cailin Stadnyk (u/s Janice & others), Ali Momen (Kevin J./Ali & others), Clint Butler (u/s Nick/Doug & others), Barbara Fulton (Diane & others), Kate Etienne (u/s Hannah & others), Lori Nancy Kalamanski (u/s Beulah & others), Kristen Peace (Bonnie & others), Kevin Vidal (Bob & others)

NOTES: As far as I know, the first ever video of the Toronto production! I had the entire show in VOB format ready to post but, unfortunately, I lost the USB it was on in the middle of an airport. Luckily I was able to salvage all but thirty minutes of the original footage, so all that's lost is part of the scene after "I Am Here" and a portion of "Somewhere In The Middle Of Nowhere". If you find a USB the size of a thumbnail around Pearson, it's a $5 reward! A flu passed around the cast that they were all just recovering from, and at one point you can see Bev take a tissue out of her pilot's jacket and blow her nose. It explains the large number of understudies on, particularly of interest is that of the role of Hannah being played by a Caucasian actress, which causes her absence for the bus scene and leads to a severely different dynamic I'd not seen the character played as before.

Come From Away - Washington D.C. - September 24, 2016 (SunsetBlvd79's master)

NOTES: The bottom left of the video is slightly obstructed by a lighting rail. The master accidentally stop recording during '38 Planes' but realized right away so it’s only missing a second or two. Some nice close-ups. Clive misses the cue for the first “Welcome to the Rock!”

NOTES: Incomplete: starts 12 mins in. Shot around heads. The combination of the revolve and the lighting of this show might make it a jolty watch but the action is caught as best as possible. If I had to decide who to film, I chose Rachel Tucker.

NOTES: My first video ever. I couldn’t see what I was filming so the camera has a tendency to film upward toward the ceiling. You can hear me laugh pretty loudly since I was holding the camera close to my face.

"Ton avis, j'men branle."

Ma réplique préférée du Professionnel. J'avais 12 ou 13 ans et je n'avais jamais entendu un tel dialogue au cinéma. Robert Hossein disait ça presque avec douceur mais foutait un peu les miquettes, dans le rôle du commissaire Rosen, un flic obsessionnel, brutal et abject. Le film a plus ou moins bien vieilli mais 40 ans plus tard, Hossein y est toujours aussi fascinant.

Robert Hossein et Marie-Christine Descouard dans “Le professionnel” (Georges Lautner - 1981).

Chapter 32 of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

There was the day, during our first trip—our first circle of paradise—when in order to enjoy my phantasms in peace I firmly decided to ignore what I could not help perceiving, the fact that I was to her not a boy friend, not a glamour man, not a pal, not even a person at all, but just two eyes and a foot of engorged brawn—to mention only mentionable matters. There was the day when having withdrawn the functional promise I had made her on the eve (whatever she had set her funny little heart on—a roller rink with some special plastic floor or a movie matinee to which she wanted to go alone), I happened to glimpse from the bathroom, through a chance combination of mirror aslant and door ajar, a look on her face . . . that look I cannot exactly describe . . . an expression of helplessness so perfect that it seemed to grade into one of rather comfortable inanity just because this was the very limit of injustice and frustration—and every limit presupposes something beyond it—hence the neutral illumination. And when you bear in mind that these were the raised eyebrows and parted lips of a child, you may better appreciate what depths of calculated carnality, what reflected despair, restrained me from falling at her dear feet and dissolving in human tears, and sacrificing my jealousy to whatever pleasure Lolita might hope to derive from mixing with dirty and dangerous children in an outside world that was real to her.

And I have still other smothered memories, now unfolding themselves into limbless monsters of pain. Once, on a sunset-ending street of Beardsley, she turned to little Eva Rosen (I was taking both nymphets to a concert and walking behind them so close as almost to touch them with my person), she turned to Eva, and so very serenely and seriously, in answer to something the other had said about its being better to die than hear Milton Pinski, some local schoolboy she knew, talk about music, my Lolita remarked:

“You know, what’s so dreadful about dying is that you are completely on your own”; and it struck me, as my automaton knees went up and down, that I simply did not know a thing about my darling’s mind and that quite possibly, behind the awful juvenile clichés, there was in her a garden and a twilight, and a palace gate—cim and adorable regions which happened to be lucidly and absolutely forbidden to me, in my polluted rags and miserable convulsion; for I often noticed that living as we did, she and I, in a world of total evil, we would become strangely embarrassed whenever I tried to discuss something she and an older friend, she and a parent, she and a real healthy sweetheart, I and Annabel, Lolita and a sublime, purified, analyzed, defied Harold Haze, might have discussed—an abstract idea, a painting, stippled Hopkins or shorn Baudelaire, God or Shakespeare, anything of a genuine kind. Good will! She would mail her vulnerability in trite bashness and boredom, whereas I, using for my desperately detached comments an artificial tone of voice that set my own last teeth on edge, provoked my audience to such outbursts of rudeness as made any further conversation impossible, oh my poor, bruised child.

I loved you. i was a pentapod monster, but I loved you. I was despicable and brutal, and turpid, and everything, mais je t’aimais, je t’aimais! And there were times when I knew how you felt, and it was hell to know it, my little one. Lolita girl, brave Dolly Schiller.

I recall certain moments, let us call them icebergs in paradise, when after having had my fill of her—after fabulous, insane exertions that left me limp and azure-barred—I would gather her in my arms with, at last, a mute moan of human tenderness (her skin glistening in the neon light coming from the paved court through the slits in the blind, her soot-black lashes matted, her grave gray eyes more vacant than ever—for all the world a little patient still in the confusion of a drug after a major operation)—and the tenderness would deepen to shame and despair, and I would lull and rock my lone light Lolita in my marble arms, and moan in her warm hair, and caress her at random and mutely ask her blessing, and at the peak of this human agonized selfless tenderness (with my soul actually hanging around her naked body and ready to repent), all at once, ironically, horribly, lust would swell again—and “oh, no” Lolita would say with a sigh to heaven, and the next moment the tenderness and the azure—all would be shattered.

Mid-twentieth century ideas concerning child-parent relationship have been considerably tainted by the scholastic rigmarole and standardized symbols of the psychoanalytic racket, but I have hope I am addressing myself to unbiased readers. Once when Avis’s father had honked outside to signal papa had come to take his pet home, I felt obliged to invite him to the parlor, and he sat down for a minute, and while we conversed, Avis, a heavy, unattractive, affectionate child, drew up to him and eventually perched plumply on his knee. Now, I do not remember if I have mentioned that Lolita always had an absolutely enchanting smile for strangers, a tender furry slitting of the eyes, a dreamy sweet radiance of all her features which did not mean a thing of course, but was so beautiful, so endearing that one found it hard to reduce such sweetness to but a magic gene automatically lighting up her face in atavistic token of some ancient rite of welcome—hospitable prostitution, the coarse reader may say. Well, there she stood while Mr. Byrd twirled his hat and talked, and—yes, look at how stupid of me, I have left out the main characteristic of the famous Lolita smile, namely: while the tender, nectared, dimpled brightness played, it was never directed at the stranger in the room but hung in its own remote flowered void, so to speak, or wandered with myopic softness over chance objects—and this is what was happening now: while fat Avis sidled up to her papa, Lolita gently beamed at a fruit knife that she fingered on the edge of the table, whereon she leaned, many miles away from me. Suddenly, as Avis clung to her father’s neck and ear while, with a casual arm, the man enveloped his lumpy and large offspring, I saw Lolita’s smile lose all its light and become a frozen little shadow of itself, and the fruit knife slipped off the table and struck her with its silver handle a freak blow on the ankle which made her gasp, and crouch head forward, and then, jumping on one leg, her face awful with the preparatory grimace which children hold till the tears gush, she was gone—to be followed at once and consoled in the kitchen by Avis who had such a wonderful fat pink dad and a small chubby brother, and a brand-new baby sister, and a home, and two grinning dogs, and Lolita had nothing. And I have a neat pendant to that little scene—also in a Beardsley setting. Lolita, who had been reading near the fire, stretched herself, and then inquired, her elbow up, with a grunt: “Where is she buried anyway?” “Who?” “Oh, you know, my murdered mummy.” “And you know where her grave is,” I said controlling myself, whereupon I named the cemetery—just outside Ramsdale, between the railway tracks and Lakeview Hill. “Moreover,” I added, “the tragedy of such an accident is somewhat cheapened by the epithet you saw fit to apply to it. If you really wish to triumph in your mind over the idea of death—” “Ray,” said Lo for hurray, and languidly left the room, and for a long while I stared with smarting eyes into the fire. Then I picked up her book. It was some trash for young people. There was a gloomy girl Marion, and there was her stepmother who turned out to be, against all expectations, a young, gay, understanding redhead who explained to Marion that Marion’s dead mother had really been a heroic woman since she had deliberately dissimulated her great love for Marion because she was dying, and did not want her child to miss her. I did not rush up to her room with cries. I always preferred the mental hygiene of noninterference. Now, squirming and pleading with my own memory, I recall that on this and similar occasions, it was always my habit and method to ignore Lolita’s states of mind while comforting my own base self. When my mother, in a livid wet dress, under the tumbling mist (so I vividly imagined her), had run panting ecstatically up that ridge above Moulinet to be felled there by a thunderbolt, I was but an infant, and in retrospect no yearnings of the accepted kind could I ever graft upon any moment of my youth, no matter how savagely psychotherapists heckled me in my later periods of depression. But I admit that a man of my power of imagination cannot plead personal ignorance of universal emotions. I may also have relied too much on the abnormally chill relations between Charlotte and her daughter. But the awful point of the whole argument is this. It had become gradually clear to my conventional Lolita during our singular and bestial cohabitation that even the most miserable of family lives was better than the parody of incest, which, in the long run, was the best I could offer the waif.

#discoveringaragón No. 3: Afternoon in Huesca

Finalement j’ai passé et aussi réussi tous les examens de ma première année à la fac, ce que signifie que je peux vivre des aventures au dehors de la bibliothèque. Miguel n’est pas encore un homme libre, c’est pour ça que je lui accompagne à Huesca, où il doit terminer encore quelques affaires à la fac. Entretemps je me mets en marche pour découvrir cette petite mais jolie ville.

Mittlerweile sind alle Prüfungen vorbei und auch bestanden, was bedeutet dass ich endlich auch wieder Abenteuer außerhalb der Bibliothek erleben darf. Miguel ist leider noch kein freier Mann, deswegen begleitete ich ihn nach Huesca, wo er an der Uni noch ein paar Sachen erledigen musste. Währenddessen begab ich mich also auf einen kleinen Entdeckungsspaziergang durch diese kleine, aber sehr feine Stadt.

Finalmente he acabado todos los exámenes (y también aprobado), lo que significa que al fin puedo volver a tener aventuras fuera de la biblioteca. Miguel aún no es un hombre libre, así que el jueves pasado lo acompañé a Huesca, donde tenía que acabar alguna cosita en la uni. Mientras tanto me fui a descubrir un poquito esta pequeña pero preciosa ciudad.

Huesca se trouve à une heure en train de Saragosse, aux pieds des Pyrénées, ce qu’on note surtout avec le climat, car il fait beaucoup moins chaud. Elle n’a même pas 53 000 habitants, mais il y a plein d’étudiants et fonctionnaires qui font l’aller-retour tous les jours (l’université de Saragosse à un campus ici, et ceux qui n’entrent pas á Saragosse viennent ici). Le centre ville entière est zone piétonnière et très soigné. A quatre heures et demi de l’aprem il n’y a personne dans les rues et je profite du silence. Tout en haut de la colline se trouve la cathédrale et la mairie. Au milieu de la place entre ces deux édifices se trouve une fontaine, des arbres et quelques bancs. L’ambiance pacifique m’invite à me poser pour une petite heure et lire quelques chapitres de mon livre (The Handmaid’s Tale).

Huesca befindet sich eine Zugstunde von Zaragoza entfernt und liegt am Fuß der Pyrenäen, was man klimatechnisch sehr merkt, da es immer etwas kühler ist. Sie hat nur knapp 53 000 Einwohner, aber es pendeln extrem viele Studenten und Beamte hierher. Das gesamte Stadtzentrum ist Fußgängerzone und sehr gepflegt. Um halb fünf nachmittags ist außer mir keine Menschenseele unterwegs und ich genieße die absolute Stille. Ganz oben auf dem Hügel an dem die Stadt geschmiegt ist, befindet sich die Kathedrale und das Rathaus. Ich verliebe mich sofort in den kleinen Platz dazwischen, mit dem Brunnen, Bänken und schattenspendenden Bäumen und beschließe, dort erstmal ein paar Kapitel in meinem Buch zu lesen (The Handmaid’s Tale).

Huesca está a una hora en tren desde Zaragoza, a los pies de los pirineos, lo que se nota mucho en las temperaturas. Son mucho más agradables. No llega ni a los 53 000 habitantes, pero hay mucho estudiante y funcionario que hace el viaje de ida y vuelta cada día. El casco antiguo es enteramente zona peatonal y muy cuidado. A las cuatro y media de la tarde no hay ni dios en la calle y disfruto de la tranquilidad. Encima de la colina están la catedral y el ayuntamiento. Me enamoro instantáneamente de la pequeña plaza situada entre ellas, con sus árboles y su fuente. Me quedo una horita leyendo mi libro (actualmente el Cuento de la Criada).

En suite je visite le musée archéologique, au final de la rue. Je ne suis pas seule, mais il n’y a quand même pas un bruit. L’entrée est gratuite pour tous et je suis surprise par la qualité de l’exposition. Chaque côté de cet édifice octogonale présente une époque différente de l’histoire de la région. Les panneaux d’affichages et les textes (qu’en Espagnol, sorry) sont très simples à entendre et plaisantes à la vue. On ne voit ça pas tous les jours dans des musées si petits! J’apprends beaucoup sur la région: par exemple je ne savais pas qu’il y a des dolmen (comme chez Asterix) aussi dans les Pyrénées ou que les gens d’ici entretenaient des contacts commerciaux avec les Etrusques et les Phéniciens avant de l’arrivée des Romans. Dans le musée se trouve aussi la salle de trône de la reine Petronila, actuellement le lieu d’une exposition temporaire sur “Labitolosa”, une ville romaine très curieuse. Et juste à côté se trouve une petite chapelle, avec une histoire glauque…

Anschließend besuche ich das Archäologische Museum, am Ende der Straße. Ich bin zwar nicht die einzige Besucherin, aber im Innenhof ist es trotzdem totenstill. Der Eintritt ist gratis und das Museum überraschend gut. Jeder Trakt des achteckigen Gebäudes ist einer anderen Epoche in der Geschichte Huescas und seiner Umgebung. Die Schaukästen und dazugehörenden Texte sind einfach zu verstehen und visuell sehr ansprechend. Sowas sieht man selten in so kleinen Museen! Ich lerne erstaunlich viel über die Region: zum Beispiel wusste ich gar nicht dass man Dolmen (wie aus Asterix und Obelix) auch in den Pyrenäen finden kann, oder dass bevor die Römer kamen bereits Handel mit den Etruskern und Phöniziern betrieben wurde. Im Museum befindet sich ebenfalls der Thronsaal von Königin Petronila, in dem gerade eine temporäre Ausstellung über Labitolosa stattfindet, eine römische Fundstätte in der Nähe. Und gleich daneben befindet sich eine kleine Kapelle, in der sich anscheinend folgende Geschichte abgespielt haben soll…

A continuación visito el museo archeologico al final de la calle. No soy la única visitante pero el patio interior está tranquilísimo. La entrada es gratuita y el museo está sorprendentemente bien. Cada lado de este edificio octogonal cuenta un época diferente de la historia de la región. Las vitrinas y sus textos son muy fáciles deentender y visualmente sugerentes. ¡Es raro verlo en museo tan chiquitos! Aprendo un montón sobre la historia de Huesca y sus alrededores. Por ejemplo, no sabía que había dólmenes (como en Asterix y Obelix) también en los Pirineos -¡Y unos cuantos además!- O que había flujos de comercio con los etruscos y fenicios bastante antes de que llegaran los romanos. En el museo también se encuentra la sala de tronos de la reina Petronila, donde actualmente hay una exposición temporal sobre Labitolosa, una antigua ciudad romana cerca de Huesca. Y justo al lado está una pequeña capilla, donde la gente dice que pasó la siguiente historia…

Ramiro II était très préoccupé de la situation politique en Aragon après la mort de son frère. Surtout les nobles étaient peu obéissants. Désespéré il envoya un messager chez son ancien maître pour lui demander un avis. Le maître demanda au messager de lui accompagner dans le jardin, où il coupa les roses qui plus dépassaient le buisson. Puis, il dit au messager de répéter le geste devant les yeux du roi. Le roi fit appeler tous les nobles chez soi, sous le prétexte de vouloir construire une cloche tellement grande qu’on l’allait écouter dans tout le règne. Après il fit couper la tête aux nobles les plus rebeldes, arrangea les têtes dans la chapelle en forme de cloche et fit entrer le reste des nobles.

Ramiro II war sehr besorgt um den Zustand Aragons nach dem Tod seines Bruders. Besonders die Adligen waren sehr ungehorsam. Verzweifelt schickte er seinem alten Lehrer einen Boten um ihn um Rat zu beten. Dieser nahm den Boten mit ihn den Garten, wo er die Rosen abschnitt, die am meisten aus dem Gebüsch herausstanden und sagte dem Boten, vor dem König die Geste zu wiederholen. Der König ließ also alle Adeligen zu sich rufen, unter dem Vorwand eine große Glocke bauen zu wollen, die man im ganzen Reich hören würde. Dann ließ er den schlimmsten Rebellen den Kopf abschlagen, legte sie in der Kapelle in Glockenform auf und die anderen Adeligen eintreten.

Ramiro II estaba muy preocupado por la situación política en Aragón después de la muerte de su hermano. Sobre todo porque los nobles eran muy desobedientes. Desesperado mandó un mensajero para demandar ayuda a su antiguo Abad (antes de ser Rey había sido monje en un Monasterio). El maestro llevó al mensajero a su jardín y cortó las rosas que más destacaban del arbusto. Le dijo de repetir este gesto delante del Rey. El Rey llamó entonces a todos los nobles, bajo el pretexto de querer construir una campana tan grande que se iba a escuchar en todo el reino. Luego hizo cortar las cabezas a los noblesmás rebeldes, los colocó en forma de campana en dicha capilla y hizo entrar al resto de los invitados.

A painting of the legend, by José Casado, which you can see in the same museum

Bon, on ne sait pas trop si cette histoire est vraie ou pas, mais les pâtissiers de Huesca ont créé en tout cas une pâtisserie en sa honneur: Les cloches de Huesca. Généralement, les pâtisseries de Huesca sont connues bien dehors de ses murs: Le “Pastel Ruso”, la “Trenza de Almudévar” (mon préféré: de la pâte feuilleté avec des noix et un remplissage crémeux…) les “Alfahares” (des petites nuages de sucre, jaune d’oeuf et huile d’olive) ou les castagnes de massepain. Ahh, quelle jolie ville!

Ob diese Geschichte wahr ist, ist nicht ganz sicher, aber ihr zu Ehren wurde sogar ein Nachtisch kreiert: Die Campanas de Huesca. Generell ist Huesca was Süßspeisen angeht ziemlich stark unterwegs: der “Pastel Ruso” von der über 100 Jahre alten Konditorei Ascaso ist weit über die Stadtgrenzen hinaus bekannt, genauso wie die “Trenza de Almudévar” (mein Favorit - buttriger Blätterteig mit Nüssen und Cremefüllung), die “Alfahares” (weiche Dotter-Zucker-Olivenöl-Wölkchen) oder Marzipan-Kastanien. So eine schöne Stadt!

Bueno, no se sabe muy bien si esta historia es verdad o no, pero los pasteleros oscenses crearon un postre para conmemorar la leyenda: las Campanas de Huesca. En general, los pasteles de Huesca son bien conocidos también por la gente de fuera: por ejemplo el Pastel Ruso de la Pastelería Ascaso, o la trenza de Almudévar, o los Alfahares y las castañas de mazapán. ¡Me gusta esta ciudad!

Il commence à pleuvoir un peu, mais nous nous promenons encore un peu dans le parc avant de prendre le train de retour. L’escapade a valu la peine!

Es beginnt leicht zu regnen, aber wir spazieren noch durch den Park bevor es zurück nach Zaragoza geht. Der Ausflug war kurz aber auf jeden Fall wert!

Empieza a llover un poco, pero nos paseamos por el parque antes de volver a la estación. ¡La escapada ha valido la pena!

Rosen Blood T04 de Kachiru Ishizue

🌺J'ai le le #manga Rosen Blood T04 de Kachiru Ishizue / @pikaedition ⭐Je fais partie de ces lectrices qui n’ont pas boudé leur plaisir et qui ont même tourné les pages avec intérêt. Mon #avis complet sur mon blog ⤵️

Mon avis : En toute franchise, ce nouveau tome m’a bien plu. Déjà, parce qu’il fait très romance gothique avec cette héroïne un brin naïve, au centre de tout, qui ne semble pas remarquer (a priori) son importance au sein du manoir et de ses mystérieux et non moins effrayants habitants. Si j’avais peur d’avoir affaire à une sorte de harem inversé avec une héroïne et ses soupirants, heureusement…

Hello I am looking for a couple of recommendations. First, do you know any cute YA books that feature healthy polyamorous relationships? Realistic fiction is nice but not required, Black characters would be great but no characters traumatized because they're Black or queer.

Second, recommendations for fluffy books with queer and/or trans jewish characters? This person is a bible nerd and enjoys interesting exploration of the bible, if that helps. They've been having a time so nothing traumatizing please.

These are all polyam YAs, with the asterisks denoting books that are upcoming. I don’t believe any of them have Black characters, though.

Strange Grace by Tessa Gratton

That Inevitable Victorian Thing by E.K. Johnston

Adaptation and Inheritance by Malinda Lo

*Indestructible Object by Mary McCoy

3 by Hannah Moskowitz

This Song is (Not) For You by Laura Nowlin

*Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao

For Jewish fluff, Shira Glassman and Xan West z”l are great in adult, and Avi Cantor Has Six Months to Live by Sacha Lamb isn’t totally fluffy but is a good one to keep in mind for really lovely and very Jewish trans rep. Mooncakes by Suzanne Walker and Wendy Xu has lovely queer Jewish rep and trans rep in a very cozy graphic novel, and Camp by L.C. Rosen, You Asked for Perfect by Laura Silverman, Our Year of Maybe by Rachel Lynn Solomon, and my upcoming Cool for the Summer all have fluffy queer Jewish rep as well. None of these explore the bible, though; it’s a little tricky to combine that with fluff!

Remembering the 22 victims of the Beit Lid suicide bombing.

Twenty-seven years ago on January 22, 1995, Palestinian terrorists perpetrated one of the most deadly suicide bombings in Israel's history.

The attack occurred on Sunday morning at a crowded bus stop at the Beit Lid junction in central Israel, where dozens of soldiers were waiting for their buses.

Two terrorists detonated suicide bombs within minutes of each other, killing 22 people – 21 soldiers and one civilian.

May the memories of the victims be a blessing:

La distraction technologique

Notre monde riche en technologies s'est révélé à la fois un avantage et une malédiction. Si d'un côté nous avons accès à des informations ou à des personnes partout quand vous le souhaitez, d'un autre côté nous découvrons notre intérêt continuellement guidé par un environnement scientifique riche et multisensoriel. Tout a commencé à l'aide de l'interface graphique qui nous a amené à travers l'environnement plat et bidimensionnel dépendant du texte, contrôlé sur une base ligne par série, un peu comme une machine à écrire, jusqu'à votre petite image montrant une procédure ou un système chirurgical. Après cela, ce fut un court saut vers votre monde entièrement multisensoriel faisant appel à chacun de nos sens visibles, auditifs et tactiles ou kinesthésiques. Nous voyons actuellement des didacticiels vidéo en haute définition, généralement en 3D simulée. Nous écoutons un système stéréo de haute signification qui semble vraiment aussi net qu'il le semble dans la vraie vie. Nos produits vibrent, secouent, cliquettent et roulent, et notre objectif est capturé. Ce n'est vraiment pas un incident que les gens attachent maintenant des sonneries et des vibrations particulières à des personnes spécifiques pour saisir notre attention. Lorsque Larry D. Rosen entend ce riff de clavier de son iPhone 4, ils savent que ce doit être à la fois sa fiancée et un tapis roulant de ses quatre enfants, puis il attrape le téléphone portable avant la fin des premières notes. Comme le dirait B.F. Skinner, il a été favorablement renforcé sur le calendrier du ratio réparé, car c'est presque toujours une expérience optimiste de parler à l'un d'eux. Alternativement, un certain nombre de personnes dans son contact avec la liste ont une sonnerie «d'alarme», qui à son tour provoque l'effet viscéral opposé précis, et il atteint le commutateur pour ignorer l'appel. Notre technologie moderne continue de trouver des moyens de nous concentrer, car c'est ce qui nous donne des «globes oculaires», et la sagesse commune en matière de marketing et de publicité est que les yeux apportent des fonds. Lorsque vous apercevez dans votre iphone 4, la chose est de minuscules cercles rouges avec des chiffres de couleur blanche suggérant que tout vous attend: 4 e-mails non lus, 10 avis Fb, et donc de nombreux rappels que l'esprit est confondu avec cette icône au début. Votre tablette iPad fait exactement la même chose, avec votre ordinateur portable, qui vous raille spécifiquement avec des notifications numériques d'informations non lues, des icônes clignotantes vous indiquant que vous devez sauvegarder les fichiers de données de votre PC, etc. Il semble que nous ayons abandonné la capacité d'être simplement seuls avec nos sentiments. Le multitâche médiatique - qui est accompli par le cerveau qui n'effectue pas deux tâches simultanément mais plutôt en passant rapidement d'une tâche à une autre - se produit dans chaque sphère de notre propre planète, qui comprend la résidence, l'université, formation seo le lieu de travail et notre existence de loisirs. Et cela ne se limite tout simplement pas à la technologie plus jeune. La recherche a récemment mis en œuvre un groupe d'adolescents et un groupe d'adultes plus âgés qui portaient des sangles biométriques avec des lunettes numériques insérées pendant plus de 300 heures de temps libre.1 Alors que les jeunes adultes passaient d'une tâche à l'autre 27 fois par heure, une fois toutes les deux minutes. -les personnes âgées n'étaient pas non plus très efficaces pour maintenir leur attention, changeant de tâches 17 fois par heure, ou une fois tous les trois à quatre moments. La précédente dirigeante de Microsoft, Linda Rock, a surnommé cet «intérêt partiel continu» en continu multi-tâches. 2 Les changements fréquents de tâches sont quelque chose que nous faisons tous, et plus nous changeons souvent, plus cela est réellement dommageable pour les performances globales de la planète réelle. Tant que vous n'avez pas surveillé l'ordinateur d'une personne en plus de son téléphone intelligent et de tous ses autres produits, il est parfois compliqué de savoir à quel point le changement de tâche se produit réellement. Cependant, plusieurs recherches ont utilisé divers équipements d'étude pour tenter d'évaluer la commutation de processus dans le monde réel. Par exemple, dans le cadre de recherches récentes, le laboratoire de Rosen a remarqué que des élèves, de l'école médiane à l'ère universitaire, faisaient des recherches pendant 15 minutes à l'endroit où ils examinaient généralement. Étonnamment, les étudiants ne pouvaient pas se concentrer plus de 3 à 5 minutes, même si on disait à ces personnes d'étudier quelque chose d'extrêmement important.3 Cette recherche a reproduit les travaux de Gloria Label et de ses collègues de l'Université de Californie, à Irvine, qui l'ont observé. les ouvriers ont été de la même manière sans effort et régulièrement dérangés.

Campers, as Spring edges closer and the weather around camp begins to get a bit warmer, we have some news that I hope will excite you! Our first game of Capture the Flag since the beginning of Autumn will take place on 19th of March. Ensure that your teams are prepared, and await further instructions when the time gets closer.

This is intended to test your tactical skills in battle, as I’m sure you know, and we must ensure that both teams will be equally challenged. It is important for all demigods to know how to work as a team, as well as learn how to follow orders. As an added incentive to really ensure that you all work your hardest, the winning team will ensure that they don’t have to do any of their chores, apart from cabin tidying, for the rest of the week.

Finally, ensure that you enjoy the experience!

- Chiron, Activities Director at Camp Half-Blood

To celebrate the opening our RP, we will be holding our first event in a week’s time! This gives people time to “prepare”, and also the opportunity for new people to join before the event. Our first event is going to be something that happens regularly at Camp Half-Blood, and is going to be a regular occurrence in our roleplay.

Our version of Capture the Flag is going to be a bit different to how it goes in the books and films, please see below the cut for rules, and for your teams!

I. This event will take place the week of the 19th of March, starting at 8 am EST/1 pm GMT/9 pm GMT +8/12 am GMT +10. This will go on until the 23rd of March at 8 am EST/1 pm GMT/9 pm GMT +8/12 am GMT +10. This gives you ample time to start threads and give them conclusions. Please ensure that you interact with people both on your team and on the other team, as it makes it a more authentic experience.

II. Each day during the event at 8 am EST/1 pm GMT/9 pm GMT +8/12 am GMT +10, the admins will post a riddle or question based on something to do with Greek mythology. The task for you is to discuss the riddle or question with your team mates and try to find out the answer, without using Google as your first resort. We’d really like you to try and use any existing knowledge of the mythology that you have, as that makes it more fun. The team who answers the question first will win the point, and at the end of the week, the team with the most points will win. We will post a maximum of two riddles during the day, if we feel that the first riddle was answered too quickly and didn’t challenge you enough.

III. During the event you can post about preparations for it, you can trash talk other players, and even post about different strategies that you may have as ideas. Just make sure that you have fun, and tag all event posts as #ilievent001.

IV. At the end of the event, we will be hosting a mini event, our very first Campfire! At the Campfire, you can discuss the events of the “day”, how you’re feeling, and anything else you may want to! This event will go on from the 23rd of March 8 am EST/1 pm GMT/9 pm GMT +8/12 am GMT +10 to the 27th of March 8 am EST/1 pm GMT/9 pm GMT +8/12 am GMT +10 . Please tag all of these posts #iliminievent001.

V. To celebrate the whole event, we will be launching our RP gossip blog! Aphrodite will be commentating on the events as it goes on, but she’ll also be taking questions to answer on things not related to the event. Her link will be posted at the start of the event.

VI. Finally, here are the teams! They have been generated at random, but cabins have been kept together to keep it more like the books.
