Along came a spider An eight legged rider. In her web, I espied a fly Other insects came to say goodbye. The spider's sting operation Causing pain sensation. Spidey's silken seduction Makes no cause for affection. An intrepid with her labyrinth Her stealth is her fingerprint. She never trips in her net Her web is her bayonet. She walks and stalks a silky trail Rigging a web to catch the frail. Spiders are seen and never heard They wield a most unlikely sword.

This Black Cherry was one we got free from the Conservation Service and Indiana DNR. The first picture was taken on June 20, 2020 shortly after being planted. The sapling was then in a cage for protection, and the top visible rung on the cage is less than 2 feet high. The second picture was taken on June 25, 2021. The tree is now a little over 6 feet tall. Black Cherry trees normally take 8 to 10 years of growth before they produce cherries. We’ll report back in June, 2030.

Me debo un instante, otro y muchos más de alegría, con incontables abrazos, sonrisas y tratos amables. Adeudo, para mi existencia, dejar atrás cualquier síntoma de amargura, enojo, desconfianza, miedo y tristeza. Tengo pendiente convertirme en personaje extraordinario, cautivante y sencillo, y en hacer de mi biografía una historia sublime, maravillosa e inolvidable. Y sí, me debo una vida más bella, en armonía y en equilibrio, plena y sabia, abundante en detalles, sin los sobresaltos de quienes no descansan ni logran dormir tranquilos por la urgencia de apaciguar, a cualquier hora, los apetitos que tocan a sus puertas y los acosan, por la ausencia de sí y el exceso de superficialidades con que se presentan ante el mundo, por la ambición desmedida que arrebata la riqueza genuina o por los tintes sombríos que transpiran por medio de sus sentimientos, ideas, palabras y actos. Uno, desde que…

Vivaldi translation of introduction: Notable women in Asia and Peru
27. January 2019
“It is the encounters with people who make life worth living” (Guy de Maupassant). And it is the encounters with women that fascinate me the most – alongside children. It is women who make life possible at all, they are the ones who often have to pay for the maintenance of families, who are often disadvantaged in training, who are hungry first in times of crisis, who are sometimes sacrificed to family honor and who in some countries as descendants are undesirable. As a rule, women are also those who take over the upbringing of children and therefore have a great influence on the future of later generations. It is therefore necessary to always consider women in development cooperation projects.All women in the photos of the article come from financially unsecured circumstances, and they often have to provide hard for their own maintenance, usually also for that of family members, even in old age. I was deeply impressed by their attitude, strength and dignity.
“Es sind die Begegnungen mit Menschen, die das Leben lebenswert machen” (Guy de Maupassant). Und es sind die Begegnungen mit Frauen, die mich – neben Kindern – am meisten faszinieren. Frauen sind es, die das Leben überhaupt ermöglichen, sie sind es, die häufig für den Unterhalt der Familien aufkommen müssen, die in der Ausbildung oft benachteiligt sind, die in Krisenzeiten zuerst hungern, die manchmal der Familienehre geopfert werden und die in einigen Ländern als Nachkommen unerwünscht sind. Frauen sind in der Regel aber auch diejenigen, die die Erziehung der Kinder übernehmen und deshalb großen Einfluss auf die Zukunft der späteren Generationen haben. Deshalb ist es notwendig, bei Entwicklungszusammenarbeits-Projekten immer auch die Frauen zu berücksichtigen.
Alle Frauen auf den Fotos des Beitrags kommen aus finanziell ungesicherten Verhältnissen, und sie müssen oft noch im Alter hart für ihren eigenen Unterhalt, meist auch für den von Familienangehörigen, sorgen. Ihre Haltung, ihre Stärke und…

Oléron, France 2019
I like the islands in winter.
Oléron, 2019
Insulele îmi plac iarna.

Amatorilor de ,,art de vivre’’ franțuzesc le recomand un popas într-o insulă din vestul Franței, la Atlantic.

Accesul se face printr-un pod foarte spectaculos de trei kilometri, gratuit (încă). Insula Oléron este faimoasă pentru crescătoriile sale de stridii în apa naturală a oceanului, care le furnizează alimentația în mod natural.

În stânga și-n dreapta șoselei se înșiruie mici ferme de stridii cu chioșc de vânzare și chiar degustare la botul calului.

În localitatea Le Château d’Oléron, chiar la ieșirea după marele pod, se află ,,Jardins Aliénor”, o locație de calitate.

Centrul satului e la doi pași, zona este liniștită, cu parcare gratuită în față. Stăpâna casei ne-a întâmpinat călduros, cu tot ceremonialul politețurilor franceze.

Cadrul de primire este chiar salonul, unde te poți instala ca acasă, iar camera mobilată tradițional, cu gust, era dotată cu echipament nou, cu facilități de ceai și espresso, plus…

There are many reasons why innovation doesn’t work, doesn’t happen on time, or doesn’t stick enough to fill many books, as they have. Here, I’ll cover three explanations of why most individual and organizational social innovation does not work in either the private or public sector. After a brief look at each of the three, I’ll move to some strategies and methods that have been used to “work-around” these innovation stoppers. The three innovation stoppers are summarized briefly below: Source: Why Innovation Doesn’t Work: and What to Do About It
(Based on the work of Fred and Merrelyn Emery and drawn from Global Innovation by Hamson and Holder. See Brief History of Search.)
The Search Conference process helps organizations break through limiting assumptions and creates an environment, or “structure” that facilitates innovative learning.

In the first narrative of my experience in slavery, written nearly forty years ago, and in various writings since, I have given the public what I considered very good reasons for withholding the manner of my escape. In substance these reasons were, first, that such publication at any time during the existence of slavery might be used by the master against the slave, and prevent the future escape of any who might adopt the same means that I did. The second reason was, if possible, still more binding to silence: the publication of details would certainly have put in peril the persons and property of those who assisted.
