The Independence Movement in Catalonia
Whenever you walk through the city of Barcelona, you don't have to wander too far before you stumble across a Catalan flag (a white star on a blue surface), a poster showing the face of a Catalonian politician, or a cluster of yellow ribbons scattered across the streets. The question is, have you ever wondered about the Independence Movement in Catalonia and what these public statements symbolise?
The history behind the Independence Movement in Catalonia
The fight for independence has been an up-hill battle for the Catalonians since the 1700's. It began on the 11th September 1714, when the Spanish succession and its Catalonian campaign were already well under way. On that very day, the troops of King Felipe V descended upon Barcelona, but were met with strong resistance while the Barcelona army tried to defend a decentralised government against the Borbonic Monarchy.
Before the XVIII century the Kingdom of Aragon existed, which consisted of the Balearic Islands, Valencia, Catalonia and Aragon. The borders of this Kingdom were similar to the borders that many Catalonians would like to exist in current times. However, in 1701 when the Spanish Succession began, these borders slowly started to blur as the Spaniards started to gain ground. In 1713 the Catalonian Campaign started with the aim of annexing Catalonia, which led to the infamous siege of Barcelona on the 11th of September 1714 – a fierce battle between Borbonic troops fighting for the Monarchy, and the Catalan army fighting for a decentralised army after Aragon fell.
With the conclusion of this fight, Barcelona was capitulated and so the last remaining resistance on the Iberic Peninsula also ceased to exist. The following year, Spain would also take the Balearic islands and end the succession through the treaties of Utrecht and Rastatt.
Why do Catalans want independence?
Catalans are known to be very traditional and culturally rich people. They also pride themselves on their history, so it's no surprise that after having once been their own independent state with its own language and culture, its people should want to be independent again.
According to Catalonians, the Spanish fiscal system is halting Catalonian development through very high tax rates with little return, and many Catalonians therefore believe that without Spain they would be much more prosperous as they are able to retain their riches to invest back into the city.
Another crucial reason for Catalonia wanting to separate from Spain is because of its King. Spain is a Parliamentary Monarchy and Catalonia has always longed for a republic in the shape of a decentralised system. Another lesser known reason is that the current King is the son of Juan Carlos the I, who was the successor to power after Francisco Franco (the nationalist leader of Spain after the Spanish Civil War) and to whom he had close ties.
The final reason is that Catalans feel they already have everything that could constitute a country – their own language, their own culture and more than 800 years of rich history.
Public Catalan actions for the fight for independence
Although Spain won the war, this day is still felt by the Catalans of today. Through the years, the events of the Spanish Civil War and those that have followed, have given the Catalans the desire and longing of being independent once again.
Every 11th of September, Catalonia celebrates something they call "La Diada", this day is comparable to the 4th of July in the United States except with fewer fireworks, more traditional music, and activities such as the 'Castellers'. La Diada commemorates the Catalans' courage and honour from that day.
Barcelona is also reminded of the events of that day every time the clock strikes 17.14 minutes of game time in the Camp Nou stadium (home to the world-famous football club FC Barcelona). At this moment of the game, Camp Nou comes alive with the screaming of "Hi ha independencia" which means there is independence. There is also an intense whistling noise whenever the Spanish anthem or the anthem of the Champions League plays, because of the €30,000 fine given to the club in 2015 by UEFA for the use of independence symbols.
What happened on 1 October 2017 and what were the consequences?
On 1 October 2017, a referendum was held throughout Catalonia which was promptly deemed illegal by the constitutional tribunal as it violated the Spanish constitution.
Regardless of this the referendum still went ahead and police branches such as the Policia Nacional and Guardia Civil were sent in from Madrid in buses equipped with riot gear. Once the day of the referendum arrived, riot control guarded the doors of polling stations to not let anybody in to vote. Other polling stations that were not previously guarded were raided by police and saw many votes taken and destroyed.
As you might imagine, this created tension, and many fights with police and pro-Spanish protestors broke out. Only adding fuel to the fire and giving more anti-Spanish sentiment to people that were in favour of Catalonian independence. After the votes were counted, the results showed 92% in favour (2,044,038) and 7.9% against (177,547).
Since this referendum was organised by the Catalonian Government, the Spanish Government could hold Catalonian politicians accountable. Those politicians that had ties to the referendum were later arrested and sentenced for hosting an illegal referendum and the supposed incitation of violence. These arrests led to daily protests all over Catalonia, in particular Barcelona, in which there were over a million in attendance and lasted every night for a week straight.
If you have ever been to Barcelona you will most certainly have come across many of those yellow ribbons hung up on street signs, balconies, flag poles, and graffitied on walls. This is a symbol of solidarity and strength for the arrested politicians whom are also know as 'political prisoners'.


John Dwyer McLaughlin was born in 1898 and died at the age of 77 in 1976. He was an abstract American painter. He mainly did minimalist and hard-edge paintings. He lived primarily in California.
McLaughlin was born in Sharon, Massachusetts. His father was a Superior Court Judge and he had six siblings. His parents instilled in him an interest in Asian art. He served in both World Wars. He was in the navy for World War I and served in the USMC as a translator in WWII. He married Florence Emerson (a descendant of Ralph Waldo Emerson) in 1928. They moved to Japan in 1935, where he studied the art and the language. They moved back to Boston in 1938 where they opened The Tokaido, Inc. an art gallery that specialized in Japanese art and other Asian items.
McLaughlin started painting in the 30's and had no formal art training. He settled in California in 1946 and began painting full time. During this time period, he was one of just a few American artists creating abstracts. McLaughlin's work is characterized by a simplicity expressed as precise geometric forms, usually rectangles. His experiences in Asia were very important in developing his style. Zen masters taught that spaces between objects (the "marvelous void") could be more important than the objects themselves in facilitating meditation.
Let me just first express how excited I was when I saw the letter "M" next to John McLaughlin's name…according to my insane spreadsheet key, "M" meant minimalist artist. Piece of cake right? Not really. Geometric shapes of all different sizes started appearing on the canvas. I decided to sketch out something simple, yet appealing in my notebook. Most of my combination of shapes seemed stunted and didn't…for the lack of a better word, "flow" correctly on the canvas.
It's just shapes and color blocks! What's the big deal?
Well, finally I found a pattern that I liked and here it is. I will never quite think of minimalist art as easy art again.
Still wondering if I should've put a circle in there…and maybe I should've used masking tape!
Day FOUR, here I come!
Love it! I spent some time working at the Asian Art Museum in SF, where I picked up some lay people's knowledge about the Japanese aesthetic around negative space and asymmetry and the Zen qualities (whatever that means) of visual art. It's so interesting to see a Western artist like McLaughlin adopt those principles — that also calls to mind the I Ching work John Cage did — but why the hell not?
That's awesome! I was definitely fascinated about this guy's history and what inspired him. Empty space is definitely a marvelous void. Enjoyed painting this today!
I was not familiar with his work, wonderful results again.


A nine-year-old girl hugs her stuffed llama doll as Newnan Police Lt. Tate Washington crosses it off her wish list. Taylor and Tate shopped together inside Walmart Saturday for the third annual "Christmas with a Cop" campaign.
Some of Santa's helpers were out in force Saturday morning – only these elves were dressed in blue and arrived via a patrol car motorcade complete with lights and sirens.
The "elves," also known as the Newnan Police Department, escorted 48 children to a big breakfast at O'Charley's restaurant before heading to Walmart on Highway 34 for a holiday shopping spree.
The officers and their unofficial police partners participated in NPD's third annual "Christmas with a Cop" campaign.
There was no secret which part of the day the kids – and officers – liked best as they grabbed buggies and raced into the store.
"Shopping – and then maybe riding in the police car," said Tamaya Taylor, 9, with a smile on her face.
She and Lt. Tate Washington gravitated towards the stuffed animal section where Taylor found just what she was looking for - a giant stuffed llama.
"That's going to be the first thing you play with when you get home, isn't it?" Washington asked Taylor with a grin on his face.
"Yes," she said as she leaned over to hug the stuffed animal that barely fit into the shopping cart.
The children weren't the only ones enjoying the moment.
According to Cooper, officers work with the Coweta County School System to identify children whose families may have fallen on hard times.
The police department holds fundraisers and uses monetary donations to fund the annual event. They then equally divide the money and give officers a prepaid gift card to take the kids Christmas shopping.
Nothing is off-limits. Children can shop for toys – and clothes and shoes.
This year, the Newnan Walmart partnered up with NPD and set up a "Toy Shop" that included rows of toys. The two organizations also flew in Santa Claus for the day to visit with the children.
The children's relatives were overwhelmed by the show of support.
Shannon Beasley walked around the store with her younger brother Charles Turner, 11, and Inv. Vic McPhie.
"I think it's great that all these police officers come together and host events like this for the children and the community. You don't see that very often, but this has been great. I love it," Beasley said.
"We want these kids to know we're their friends all the time, not just at Christmas. But we hope they have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year," Meadows said.


Inspired by the antique Alba rose Cuisse de Nymphe named for the delicate soft color of a maiden's thigh, Maiden's Blush herbal soak is soothing, and nourishing for sensitive skin. Each 16 oz jar is good for three to four soaks and comes with a re-usable cotton muslin bag.
Put ¼ of the contents of this container into the re-usable muslin bag, add bag to a pan of boiling water (2 cups is good), cover and let steep for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, draw your bath, then pour the herbal tea into your bath. Soak yourself for 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can simply add the herb filled muslin bag to your tub and then draw your bath. The tea will be less strong steeping directly in the bath, but is still soothing and softening.
These bath herbs are also great used as a foot soak. Follow the same instructions but instead of adding the tea to your bath, add it to a big pot of hot water and soak your tired feet in it. It will be more concentrated in a smaller amount of water which is great for tired feet.
Ingredients: Calendula Officinalis (Calendula) Flowers, Symphytum officinale (Comfrey) Root, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Meal, Plantago Lanceolata (Plantain) Leaf.

Parkland kids can protest, but they don't know what they are talking about
Were you smarter when you were half your current age? Wiser? Why assume it works differently for anyone else?

Later this month, high school kids will hold big demonstrations in Washington and elsewhere to demand gun control in the wake of the shootings in Parkland, Fla. That's fine by me. I disagree with the thrust of what they want to do as a matter of policy, but it's a free country.
My problem is with the resurgence of an old American tradition of celebrating young people as inherently wiser and more moral than adults. There are really three problems with the fetishization of youth in politics. First, it's based on a faulty premise: that young people have a radically or uniquely superior insight into political affairs.
This is an ancient confusion. It usually hinges on misinterpreting the fact that young people see the world with fresh eyes, as it were.
And it's true that young people have a gift for cutting through the false pieties and polite fictions of modern life, as when a nephew points out how much weight you've gained. Even the story of The Emperor's New Clothes is a story about a kid too ignorant to know when to placate a king's vanity.
More: Think AR-15s in the hands of teens is a good idea? Teenage me would disagree.
More: Florida shooting survivors aren't 'crisis actors.' They're victims of Internet failure.
But the simple fact is that young people are not, as a group, better informed, wiser, smarter or even more enlightened than older people. This is a fact of science and social science alike. We are born ignorant of the world we live in and only lose that ignorance over time.
Think about what you knew and understood at half your current age. Were you smarter then? Wiser? Why assume it works differently for anyone else?
"To all the generations before us," Cameron Kasky, one of the Parkland survivors recently said on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, "we sincerely accept your apology. And we appreciate that you are willing to let us rebuild the world that you f---ed up."
I get the passion. I get the rage and trauma behind it. But this nonsense is as pernicious as it is obnoxious (I've apologized for nothing, by the way, have you?). It's also not true.
Young people today, and particularly young Americans, should be brimming with gratitude for the world they are inheriting. Lest you think this a cranky right-wing sentiment, let me align myself with Barack Obama: "If you had to choose a moment in time to be born, any time in human history, and you didn't know ahead of time what nationality you were or what gender or what your economic status might be, you'd choose today."
Kasky is standing on a soapbox built with the toil of previous generations and he's taking a sledgehammer to it — because he doesn't know better.
More: It's sickening to call cop in school shooting a coward: Law enforcement instructor
POLICING THE USA: A look at race, justice, media
My hunch is that a great many people who take offense at my criticism do so either because of Kasky's traumatic experience or because they agree with him — if not about the bankruptcy of the past then about his anti-gun agenda.
And that brings me to the second problem with the glorification of youth: It invariably involves powerful adults finding kids who agree with them on some issue and then claiming that all young people think this way (and then hiding behind the myth that we must listen to "the children"). If these Parkland kids came out for concealed-carry or arming teachers, you can be sure MSNBC would not be touting them in commercials.
But the most galling thing about adult partisans hiding behind kids is that it amounts to a kind of power-worship. "I know that whenever you disapprove of young people, you're in the wrong," the author Tim Kreider wrote in The New York Times, "because you're going to die and they'll get to write history." Never mind that factually, this is balderdash.
Young people change their minds about lots of things as they get older, and historians rarely lock in the views of young people a few decades later. This is also ethically bankrupt because it assumes that whatever kids today believe will be right because the victors write the history, so we should just surrender to the youngest mob.
Democracy depends on arguments that are not contingent on your age. Lots of kids don't understand that, but grown-ups are supposed to.

For his Nasu Dengaku, Best New Chef Kevin Tien of Himitsu in Washington, D.C., brushes eggplant with a sweet yuzu-miso glaze, broils it until smoky and tender, finishes it with a lime-chile-soy vinaigrette with Szechuan peppercorns, and tops it with roasted pumpkin and sesame seeds.
Stir together sugar, mirin, and sake in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium; cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; add miso and yuzu juice; stir until smooth. Set aside.
Cook canola oil, Sichuan peppercorns, crushed red pepper, garlic, cinnamon, star anise, and ginger in a medium saucepan over low, without stirring, 30 minutes. Remove from heat, and cool completely, about 30 minutes. Pour oil mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl; discard solids. Add lime juice, soy sauce, black vinegar, sesame oil, and sugar to oil, and stir to combine.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Place eggplant halves, cut side up, on 2 large rimmed baking sheets. Brush cut sides of eggplant with canola oil; sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

An entry level book examining various theories surrounding morality and ethical matters. Worth reading as it informs while avoiding the always feared academic bafflegab. Very enjoyable.
1aa Nov 28, 2015
The weakest part of the book is the first thirty or so pages where he just writes in a gossipy about the lives of Foot and others.
Apart from that, its entertaining and clear, but it doesn't get much in to the details or complexities of 'trolleyology' (that's where the fun really is). A good bibliography and clear notes are included.
ksoles Mar 08, 2014
Is it justifiable to steer a train away from five people tied to the track when, as a result, an individual on a side track will perish? Is it morally acceptable to cause the death of one man in order to save five innocent lives? What about pushing a large man off a footbridge to block a runaway train that is hurtling towards five people tied to a track? In his provocative new book, "Would You Kill the Fat Man?", David Edmonds demonstrates the fun of philosophical discussions. He presents a number of thought experiments that pique interest, stimulate curiosity and "test our moral intuitions." Although some of Edmonds' scenarios sound far-fetched, they succeed in motivating us to ponder complex ethical issues.
"Would You Kill the Fat Man?" provides an immensely pleasurable read. Neither ponderous nor pretentious, Edmonds explains technical terms such as the "Doctrine of Double Effect" clearly and concisely. In addition, he deftly mixes law, evolutionary biology, linguistics, medicine, psychology, and sociology in his effort to explain why we act as we do. Do we make specific moral distinctions instinctually? Does a person's geographical/cultural background influence his/her behaviour? Finally, the author includes intriguing anecdotes about figures like Winston Churchill, Grover Cleveland, and Harry Truman, all of whom had to make extremely controversial decisions.
The book does not supply conclusive answers though it does have practical implications. Soldiers might have to attack a military installation, knowing they might kill civilians in the process; agencies invade people's privacy with hopes of foiling terrorist plots; law enforcement officials deceive suspects to make them reveal vital information. Every day, in both dramatic and mundane situations, each of us must make moral and ethical judgments.
No "one-size-fits-all" solution exists. Even if some convince themselves to push the fat man off the footbridge, for others, no rationalization could eliminate the guilt that might ensue. We all think, cry and laugh differently; we all have memories and, in most cases, feel empathy for others. "Would You Kill the Fat Man?" ultimately encourages us to reflect on Kant's statement: "Persons must never be treated merely as a means to some other end."

Packet loss, jitter and latency across the WAN is a critical component to ensure the end user experience. As expectations of application performance increase, the demands put on the WAN call for more granular visibility than ever before. Flow based solutions miss the mark in todays high demand WAN. Packet based solutions like Corvil allow for response time measurement and transactional visibility.
Packet loss is difficult to get to the root cause on the WAN. Expectations of the end user in regards to WAN performance has outpaced the industry's ability to monitor the WAN at a granularity to see performance slow downs. Visibility of the traffic on the WAN is still critical to ensure that business related traffic gets prioritized across this service.
Service provider WAN performance impacts applications. Validating service provider SLA's is difficult to do.
Jitter and latency still affect performance of modern applications and needs to be measured.
Utilization is not a good KPI to determine WAN performance.
Hybrid networks and micro services make it difficult to see and determine network traffic issues.
Corvil provides real-time reporting and troubleshooting of performance issues for the WAN and hybrid network. This includes the ability to view performance from a packet perspective with our rich library of decodes. Corvil's microsecond granularity is the right level of detail needed for todays high demand performance applications.
Corvil passively taps into the packet data flowing in the network which contains a highly granular and accurate record of all WAN activity. The Corvil solution uniquely mines this packet data by automatically discovering applications and protocols and reports on a number of key performance metrics. Corvil is a hybrid network probe providing both packet analytics and packet capture on one platform.
Flexible decodes that can be used to better understand a critical application and deliver business analytics to relevant teams.

I am now attempting to draw a 3d bar chart with this information in matplotlib, but I am having issues being able to unravel the pivot data, and see the count as something that could be seen as values of the z axis.
If i print the columns contained in my dataframe I receive the following:

    > print(df)
    [('Count', 'Server1'),
    ('Count', 'Server2'),
    ('Count', 'Server3'),
    ('Count', 'Server4')]

Can someone help me to put this together?

exchange on dreamwidth!
summary: Not that Takaki was known for his amazingly sound judgement even when Chinen wasn't involved, but, well… could anyone ever say no to Chinen?
"Hey, Yuya," Chinen says casually, not looking up from the magazine he's been flipping through since the director called for a meal break ten minutes ago, "I bet I can get you off before the others get back."
Takaki, who had been staring into space, lost in thought about drama filmings and upcoming CD recordings and various other things like he tended to, blinked for a moment before his head snapped around to look at Chinen in surprise. "Wait, what?"
"You heard me," Chinen says, long lashes fluttering as his eyes pass dispassionately over the glossy photos of models and clothes and shoes before him. His gaze is impassive, but Takaki can see just the hint of an impish grin tugging up at the corners of his cute little lips, and he can't help the shiver of excitement that runs down his spine. He knows that Chinen is mischievous, but somehow, he always manages to come up with new and exciting ways to surprise Takaki that Takaki would never have imagined, and especially when it came to things that were, well, intimate, Takaki knew that he couldn't resist. Not that Takaki was known for his amazingly sound judgement even when Chinen wasn't involved, but, well… could anyone ever say no to Chinen?
Still, he has to at least try to appeal to the logical side of things, and so, after a moment of dumb silence, he laughs embarrassedly, asking, "Aren't we starting the photoshoot again in an hour?"
"Yup," Chinen replies, flipping to the next page of his magazine and taking a moment to gaze at the words and photos in front of him before looking up at Takaki. There's a twinkle in his eye that Takaki knows means trouble, but rather than worry, Takaki can feel his heart rate pick up with excitement and anticipation, and he can't keep a stupid grin off his face as Chinen adds, "But I think we can have a good time and still have a few minutes to spare~"
At times like this, Takaki always wants to say something cool, something dashing and sexy and like a romance drama lead or an action movie star, but his brain functions a lot slower than Chinen's, and his good intentions are never enough to make up for it. And so he flounders, shifting his weight and looking around the set. They're here for the regular idol magazine photoshoots, making the rounds of the various studios over the course of the day, but lunch break has fallen neatly in the middle of the Wink Up shoot, and so they've been given an hour to find food before they start up again. Most of the other members have dispersed, sitting in the break room on a different floor of the building to eat food brought from home or relying on their managers to bring them a bento from a nearby convenience store, but Takaki and Chinen, who had both had a break in the photoshoot only a little earlier, have already eaten. And so here they are, still dressed up in the suits and ties from the magazine costuming department on the fake-office set being used for this month's article, likely to be titled, Do one's job or some other equally unintelligible English (to Takaki, at least). It's business as usual when it comes to magazine shoots, and Takaki is used to having to wear all sorts of things for work, but for some reason, when Chinen looks at him that way, it makes his collar feel a little tight, and so he fiddles with his tie for a few moments before asking, "Uh, so, what did you have in mind?"
Chinen's devilish grin grows as he flips the magazine shut, but he remains silent as he begins to walk slowly towards Takaki, a darkly enticing look in his eye. Takaki swallows hard; he can tell from his gaze when Chinen wants something, and he knows that Chinen always gets what he wants.
But all the thoughts are wiped from Takaki's mind as Chinen comes closer and closer, until his small body is pressed up against Takaki's, his weight against Takaki's chest as he stands on his toes to be closer to eye level. "Chinen—?" Takaki manages to squeak, sounding distinctly unmanly and unsexy, but unable to think about that, or anything other than the warmth of Chinen's body against his own. But Chinen only smirks and leans closer, his lips practically touching Takaki's cheek as he murmurs, "Haven't you always wondered what it'd be like to have sex in the office after hours~?"
"Eh—?" Takaki says, finding it significantly more difficult to focus on Chinen's words than the feeling of his mouth so close to Takaki's skin, but Chinen only laughs, tilting his face down a little as his fingers move up to finger the knot of Takaki's tie. Takaki is a little sad to lose the sensation of him so close, but seeing as their bodies are still touching, it doesn't make a huge difference, and it clears his brain just enough to process what Chinen had asked. "In the office…?" he asks, looking down at Chinen with a perplexed expression, "But… we don't work in an office…?"
Chinen laughs again as he deftly slips his fingers between the folds of the tie, slipping the end free and unraveling the knot in a matter of seconds. It's amazing to watch Chinen do just about anything, Takaki thinks vaguely with what little brain power he has left; he's impossibly perfect at everything he does, and Takaki knows that Chinen can make him come undone just about as swiftly and easily as the tie knot. But he's brought out of his thoughts when Chinen moves on to the buttons of his collar, his fingertips teasingly close to Takaki's skin as he slowly pops the first button of his shirt undone. "But just imagine if we did~" he replies smoothly, and Takaki is transfixed by his words, his touches, his everything.
"If we worked in an office together… you'd be my sexy, irresistible senpai…" Chinen continues as he makes his way to the next button, letting his fingers trail lightly against Takaki's skin along the way, and Takaki can imagine it all too easily despite the fact that he's never really been any good at following along with anything. It's just another way that Chinen really is good at everything, and Takaki can't help but swallow thickly as Chinen smirks before popping the next button open. He knows that Chinen is building up to something, and while he doesn't know what it is, he can already feel his body beginning to react in anticipation, his heart beating quickly in his chest, his cheeks hot, his pants starting to feel just a little too tight for comfort. It would be embarrassing, except that he's used to it— Chinen is good and he knows it, and at this point in their relationship, he knows exactly what he's capable of doing to Takaki just with a few sweet words and pointed touches.
The anticipation is killer, but when Chinen speaks again, Takaki knows that his wait is almost over. "And if no one was around…" Chinen adds, suddenly pausing in his efforts to look up at Takaki with that devilish, enticing smile, "…would you really be able to resist having your way with your cute little kouhai?"
Maybe it's not much, but the look in his eye and the quirk of his lips combined with his words are enough to push Takaki past the last of his reservations, and before he even knows what he's doing, he's grabbing Chinen by the hips and flipping him around so that he's pinned between Takaki and one of the prop desks that they've been using for the photoshoot, face down. "You'd like that, wouldn't you~?" Takaki practically growls, pressing flush against Chinen's back to kiss the side of Chinen's neck. It's amazing how much Chinen can draw Takaki into any fantasy, he thinks; he doesn't know how Chinen is so good at using just the right words to get Takaki all worked up. But however he does it, Takaki knows he enjoys it, and right now, he's more than happy to take advantage of the atmosphere that Chinen has created for them. Pressing more kisses down Chinen's jaw and neck, he relishes in the feeling of Chinen squirming beneath him, in the sound of Chinen's breaths coming more quickly now.
But then suddenly, Chinen is rocking his hips back to grind his ass against Takaki's crotch, that smug smirk finding its way back onto his lips, and Takaki can't help but moan as he grinds back, already more turned on than he'd care to admit. He's never been able to resist Chinen's ass and he knows Chinen knows it, and so after catching Chinen's lips in a brief kiss, he struggles to find the button of Chinen's pants.
"Better hurry, wouldn't want the boss to catch us~" Chinen chimes, sounding infuriatingly calm, and Takaki only growls again, fumbling Chinen's zipper down and pulling back slightly to tug the pants from his body. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he knows that he really shouldn't toss the magazine's wardrobe pants to the floor quite so carelessly, but right now, all he can think about is getting inside Chinen as fast as possible.
He struggles with his own pants next; the wardrobe director had put him in a stupidly difficult belt, and he mutters his annoyance as he finally manages to yank it free, tugging off his own slacks and boxers as fast as possible. He hopes that Chinen is doing the same, but when he looks up, Chinen has lost his suit jacket and loosened his tie, but he's still exactly where he was before, bent over the desk with his cute, round ass pointed in Takaki's direction, still covered with his boxers. Takaki frowns, impatient, but before he can say or do anything, Chinen, as if reading his mind, chimes, "Don't you want to unwrap it yourself~?" and, well… Takaki can't really argue with that.
His hands are shaking as he places them on Chinen's hips, but before he can get to the task at hand, Chinen's lips, flushed a deep pink and curled up just so and more enticing than Takaki can even understand, distract him, and he's leaning in for another kiss as his fingers curl around the elastic of Chinen's waistband. Chinen is pliant and willing beneath him, his lips parting willingly to let Takaki in, but after a few moments, he pulls back, grinning at Takaki from beneath those long eyelashes. Takaki opens his mouth to ask what's wrong, but before he can speak, Chinen simply says, "I want you before we run out of time," and suddenly, Takaki remembers that they have a limited amount of time, and he wants Chinen badly, too.
And so, pulling back slightly again, he slides Chinen's boxers over his hips, admiring the smooth skin of his ass as it's revealed. But he can't take too long, and "hurry up~" Chinen bids again, wiggling his hips to aid the process, and Takaki doesn't need prompting twice. Deftly tugging Chinen's boxers all the way off, he tosses them to the floor before realizing that he wasn't exactly planning on having sex during this photoshoot, and as such, is totally unprepared.
"Do you have—" he starts to ask Chinen, but before he can even finish his sentence, Chinen is pressing a packet of lube and a condom into his hand with that smile still on his face, and Takaki can't help but grin back as he accepts them gratefully. He really is lucky to have Chinen, he thinks, in more ways than he can even count.
Chinen helpfully spreads his legs as Takaki sheds his jacket and stuffs the condom in his shirt pocket for the time being before ripping open the packet and spreading a generous amount of lube on his fingers. "Are you ready?" he asks, and when Chinen nods eagerly, he smirks and gets to work. Chinen has always been easy to prep; perhaps it's because he's experienced, or perhaps it's because he's just magically good at everything he does, but no matter the reason, Takaki's grateful as he slides one, and then two fingers inside of him. Chinen does his best to make it easy, moving his hips to give Takaki better access and giving him verbal cues to keep going, and Takaki feels like he's barely gotten the third finger into Chinen before Chinen is telling him, "Hurry up already, I just want you~"
Takaki has always been a little worried about hurting Chinen, especially when Chinen is so small, but he knows that Chinen knows his own body best, and so he doesn't argue. Besides, it's not as if Takaki doesn't feel more than ready to go, too, and so he makes quick work of the condom and the rest of the lube before gripping Chinen's hips again and lining himself up. "You ready?" he asks, his voice a little shaky from lust and anticipation, and when Chinen nods in response, Takaki doesn't hold back.
Chinen is so hot and so tight that no matter how many times they do this, Takaki feels like it's the first time, and he can't bite back a moan as he tries to press in slowly and gently enough to give Chinen time to adjust. Chinen whimpers a little in response, a breathy, "Yuya—" falling from his lips between heaving breaths, and more than anything, Takaki wants to hear that again. But for now, he knows he needs to focus, and so he does his best not to rush, pushing as far as he can before asking, "How is it…?"
"Good," Chinen replies without missing a beat, turning his head a little to smile at Takaki, his cheeks pink, his lips parted, "I want more," and that's all Takaki needs. "Chinen—" he gasps out as he rolls his hips, thrusting back in a little harder, a little further than before, and when Chinen moans in response, he knows he's on the right track. Building up a rhythm, he can't hold back the little groans of pleasure that form in his throat as he thrusts deeper into Chinen's body; Chinen feels amazing, and when, after a few moments, Chinen suddenly yelps and cries out, "more—!" in that voice that Takaki knows only he gets to hear, he can't hold back anymore. "Chinen—" he moans again, losing himself to the sensations as he rocks into Chinen again and again, and hearing Chinen moan in response every time Takaki thrusts into him makes him feel as if the pleasure is doubled.
"More— please—" Chinen gasps again, and Takaki loves how Chinen isn't shy when it comes to asking for what he wants. Takaki wants to give it to him, and so he doesn't hesitate, thrusting harder still in response to Chinen's request and leaning in to press a brief kiss to the back of Chinen's neck. "Yuya…" Chinen whimpers in response in a tone that makes Takaki feel as if his heart is on fire as well as the rest of him, and he kisses the same spot again, wanting to make Chinen feel the same way.
Takaki wishes they could go on this way forever, but at the same time, he wants to push Chinen over the edge, wants to make him feel as good as physically possible, and so when Chinen whimpers out, "Yuya… touch me, please…" Takaki is quick to acquiesce. Chinen's moans grow even louder as Takaki wraps a hand around his cock and does his best to stroke in time with his thrusts, though it's hard when Chinen spreads his legs a little more and starts to rock his hips into Takaki's thrusts with such intensity that Takaki feels like he's going to lose control right then and there. He manages to hold it together for another minute, though, and that's all it takes; after a moment, Chinen is coming, spilling himself over Takaki's hand with a strangled cry, and then Takaki is following suit, moaning Chinen's name as he comes deep inside Chinen's body.
It feels good, Takaki thinks vaguely, in the moments afterwards, to lay like this, as well, cuddled up against Chinen, but after a moment, Chinen elbows him in the side, clearly thinking otherwise. "You're squishing me," he complains, squirming, and "Oh— crap— sorry!" Takaki responds, taking a step back on wobbly legs and tossing the condom into a nearby trash can before collapsing next to Chinen against the surface of the desk. He probably looks stupid, but he doesn't care; everything feels pleasant right now, and he smiles at Chinen beside him. Chinen grins back, and for a moment, everything feels perfect in the world.
But then, "We'd better get cleaned up before the others get back~" Chinen hums, and Takaki's eyes widen. In the heat of the moment, he'd totally forgotten that they're basically in a public place, and he looks at the clock in a panic, trying to remember what time the photoshoot was supposed to start again. But from beside him, he hears Chinen laugh, and he turns to look at him in surprise.
"You're cute~" Chinen says, standing up and brushing off the front of his shirt. "Don't worry, I kept my eye on the clock. We still have plenty of time."
Takaki lets out an audible sigh of relief before standing up as well, feeling hot and popping open another button of his shirt absentmindedly. But he can feel Chinen's eyes on him, and when he turns to look at Chinen again, Chinen is grinning that same devilish grin at him.
"Unless you want to go again~?" Chinen asks with a wink, and Takaki's eyes widen again and he swallows hard.
"D-do we have time…??" he asks nervously, but when Chinen on looks back at him with that same playful smirk and Takaki feels all his willpower flying out the window, all he can think is that he's definitely incapable of saying no to Chinen.", "url": "https://faded-lace.livejournal.com/675595.html", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://l-files.livejournal.net/og_image/8042002/2639?v=1503911745" }, "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "ミランダ (大丈夫)", "image": "https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/117464723/8042002" }, "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Journal faded_lace", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://faded-lace.livejournal.com", "contentUrl": "https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/125396910/8042002" } } }

UnREAL Stars Freddie Stroma and Johanna Braddy Are Planning a "Super Bridal" Wedding
A match made in TV heaven—seriously!
By Carson Blackwelder

When UnREAL Season 1 ended, Freddie Stroma and Johanna Braddy took their on-screen romance and tested it out IRL. Now, after getting engaged in May, they're prepping for their wedding—one that won't end in disaster like on the Lifetime series—and spilling details.
"We're getting married around the holidays this year," 28-year-old Braddy told People. "Freddie's family is coming from Europe and Asia and we're all gonna be together. So that's gonna be different. Super southern family. Super European family."

A romance that started because the Quantico star and the 29-year-old Brit realized they both "[didn't] want to say goodbye" after filming ended, it seems this bride-to-be is aiming to please her future hubby with what she wears down the aisle.
He's just too handsome. It's not even fair. #unrealtv @unreallifetime

"I have a dress. Anne Barge is designing a dress for me. She reached out to me and is custom making it, it's crazy," she added. "I can't say too much because I don't want him to find out but basically we had a conversation about it and I asked him, 'What do you picture when you think of a wedding and a bride?' And he was like, 'Disney cartoons.'"

Yes, we're already envisioning Braddy as Cinderella—complete with the princess gown—as she and Stroma say "I do," and it seems that might be the idea she's going for. Basically, don't expect any non-traditional thrills on this couple's big day.
"And I was like, 'OK, all right. Super bridal.' So, I'm just doing it up in every bridal way I can," she explained. "Very feminine, very classic. Nothing too trendy."


Did you feel the pain of the State Government's land tax hike?
Another recent article I read on the members section of reiwa.com website that got me thinking about all this tax rate rises that are happening of late.
Aren't we paying enough already for everything we need or want? I can certainly understand how some families struggle and these constant rises definitely don't help the low income earners or first home buyers.
This article shows that REIWA understands that reform is needed.
"Last week, many of you will have received your most recent land tax bills and, unfortunately, the land tax rates and thresholds have increased for the third year in a row. These changes were made in the May 2015 State budget and came as a surprise and shock to the property industry.
State tax reform, particularly of property taxes including land tax and stamp duty, is a key issue in REIWA's advocacy agenda – and reform is needed.
This year when the Treasurer announced these further imposts on land tax, REIWA President (at the time) David Airey came out strongly opposing these changes and criticised the State Government for their reliance on the property industry to fix their budget woes.
As REIWA prepares for the next round of pre-budget submissions, we will continue the fight to remove any more reliance on the property industry to fix the state budget's shortfall.
As you'd recall in our last pre-budget submission we called for a removal of stamp duty and a transition to a more equitable and transparent land tax regime, which does not adversely affect investors, as the current aggregation requirements do.
The State Government is due to release their mid-year fiscal outlook in mid-December, this will give industry a sense of where they see the economy going and provide some insight into their policy decisions in the lead up to the next State budget in May 2016.

Iran Activist To Return To Prison For Refusing To Ask Pardon From Khamenei
Iran: Iranian labor activist Sepideh Qolia (Gholian). FILE PHOTO
A civil rights activist sentenced to five years in prison for her activism in support of unpaid workers says she was urged to write a letter requesting a pardon from the Islamic Republic Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
"I refused. Therefore, I must report to Qarchak Prison next Sunday," 25-year-old Sepideh Qolyan (Gholian) said Tuesday, June 16, in a video message on her Instagram page.
Qolian who spend more than a year in prison was granted a temporary release on bail during the COVID-19 outbreak but was called back to report to court.
"When I entered the courthouse in Evin (Tehran's infamous prison), the judge presiding over the First Branch court told a soldier to send me in. I asked what was the issue of pardon about? They told me I should write a petition requesting a pardon from the leadership (Khamenei), and they will see what they could do for me," Qolyan disclosed on her Instagram account, adding, "When I said that I refuse to do so, they said that I will be arrested and transferred to Qarchak prison."
Qolian was convicted for her involvement in three separate legal cases, including the Haft Tapeh Sugar Mill protests in 2018, reporting about ethnic Arab prisoners, and revealing the role of a state-run TV reporter in interrogating suspects.
She has also said in her Instagram post that she had prepared a detailed report on the issue of pardon by the Islamic Republic Supreme Leader, and will publish it on Sunday, before presenting herself to the notorious prison, Qarchak, south of the Iranian capital city, Tehran.


LAST EXILE emerged as a series that set the bar for stylish, intelligent anime. The carefully crafted design work and thrilling narrative provided a compelling combination in hand with the sweeping orchestral elements of the soundtrack.
The breathtaking visual style of anime series Last Exile was conceived by animation outfit Gonzo to celebrate the studio's 10th Anniversary and originally screened in Japan in 2003. The design of the series was handled by noted Japanese illustrator Range Murata, who had previously worked on the earlier Gonzo series Blue Submarine No. 6 (alongside Last Exile director Koichi Chigira and production designer Mahiro Maeda). As a result, the series breathed an authentic level of detail and design that brought the thrilling world of aerial battleships, mysterious artefacts and chivalry to life.
The series also excelled in its use of music which managed to paint everything from stirring dramatic sequences to reflective heartfelt moments. The musical palette drew from a combination of piano, string and wind instruments and subtle percussion to produce thrilling orchestral soundscapes. Pieces like 'Road To The Light' and 'Beautiful Fields' wouldn't be out of place in any Hollywood blockbuster. As a result, Last Exile spawned two soundtrack CD releases collating the music used in the series.
Last Exile's soundtrack featured the work of musical group Dolce Triade – a 3-piece outfit consisting of Hitomi Kuroishi, Maki Fujiwara and Yuki Yamamoto. It's Hitomi Kuroishi's ethereal vocals that are utilised on many of the non-instrumental songs featured in the series, such as the evocative ending theme 'Over The Sky' and the contemplative beats of 'Rays Of Hope' (complete with rainfall samples). Then there's the pop-infused euphoric melody of 'A New World Has Come'.
Usually just credited as 'Hitomi' for her vocal songs (and not to be confused with a separate J-Pop artist also called 'hitomi'), the Kanazawa-born musician had already established herself as a seasoned veteran of anime soundtrack work. Prior to Last Exile, Hitomi was also responsible for several anime contributions including the music used on fan-favourites Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion and Planetes.
Much of Hitomi's anime work featured on her 'Angel Feather Voice' album released in 2008 (a second volume was released in 2011).
Last Exile also features contributions from Tokyo-based musician Shuntaro Okino, whose talents feature on several songs from the series, including the dramatic opening theme 'Cloud Age Symphony'. Shuntaro originally started out in 90s guitar band Venus Peter before launching a solo career in 1995. Like Hitomi Kuroishi, Shuntaro has also contributed music for other anime titles, including GUN x SWORD and A Rising Tide. Unusually, Shuntaro also engaged the talents of regular collaborator Damian Broomhead, a Tokyo-based painter originally from Australia, who provides lyrics for a selection of songs for the Last Exile soundtrack (hence, the songs being sung unusually in English).
There's a marked difference in style between Hitomi Kuroishi's work and Shuntaro Okino's approach, notably the latter's busier musical arrangements which often employ a more psychedelic feel, particularly on songs such as 'Head In The Clouds' and the nocturnal beats of 'I Can See A Heart'.
The Last Exile soundtrack CD albums were released on the Geneon label, both sadly out of print. The releases were notable for the use of much of Range Murata's artwork and the pleasing visual contrast between the matt grey of the first volume and the cream white of the second. Although the CDs themselves are hard to come by these days, the good news is that the material is available on iTunes for download.
Good news also for fans of Last Exile as a second series was commissioned. Last Exile : Fam, The Silver Wing was designed to mark Gonzo's 20th Anniversary and was originally broadcast in Japan in 2011/2012. Once again, the series united not only the talents of artist Range Murata and director Koichi Chigira but also the return of Hitomi Kuroishi handling music duties.

Project University of Waikato Marae and Multi-Purpose Facility
Client University of Waikato
Location Hamilton
Category Education + Research
The design competition entry for the University of Waikato's Marae and Multi-Purpose Facility responds to the University's requirement for a facility which delivers world-leading amenities that enhance the competitive appeal of the wider campus. It provides an opportunity to represent the wider campus to the world through a new lens – as an authentic and unique place of identity and culture.
The design is conceived as a sculptural gateway – an architectural waharoa that denotes the beginning of the journey into the body of the campus. The building is influenced by and responds to the contours of the land – a sinuous and organic form that flexes to acknowledge immediate landforms and distant references on the cultural and psychological map of the region. The new facility responds to place and culture and creates a setting for new history to be made. In this sense, the design can be understood at many levels – as a landscape form, as a vehicle for hosting and observation of protocols, and as a symbol of connectivity between tradition and the most contemporary realities of academic life.
The design recognises that both indoor and outdoor protected space are equally important. The gathering and welcoming of large numbers of people within the social, cultural and physical climate of Waikato requires generous and dramatic spaces, each able to support a carefully sequenced progression from public to civic to private space. The design signals and choreographs these movements through its primary gestures. A generous canopy that is shared between two buildings – one designed for hosting, the other for learning and administration – provides a metaphor for the dual responsibilities of the facility. The embedding of student life within the earth while ceremony is lifted above provides another metaphor for the project as a building immersed into and emerging from the land.
The building is conceptually not merely a container, but also a conduit. By facilitating the natural movement of students through the campus, the new facility can provide a natural nexus for student interaction – a place of accidental but inevitable contact between students and academics, between researchers and the city. Thought of in this way, the project can fulfill its role as a civic building as well as the heart of the campus.

Q: Bott-Chern cohomology for singular complex spaces I'm reading the book 'An Introduction to the Kahler-Ricci Flow' (Lecture Notes in Mathematics 2086). They discuss Bott-Chern cohomology on complex spaces:
Let $X$ be a complex space(i.e. analytic variety) with normal singularity.

Lemma 4.6.1. Any pluriharmonic distribution on $X$ is locally the real part of a holomorphic function, i.e. the kernel of the $dd^c$ operator on the sheaf $\mathcal D'_X$ of germs of distributions coincides with the sheaf $\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X$ of real parts of holomorphic germs.

Definition 4.6.2. A (1,1)-form (resp.(1,1)-current) with local potentials on $X$ is defined to be a section of the quotient sheaf $\mathcal C^\infty_X/\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X$(resp. $\mathcal D'_X/\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X$). We also introduce the Bott-Chern cohomology space $H^{1,1}_{BC}(X):=H^1(X,\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X)$.

My questions are:

*

*The lemma seems suspicious to me. It implies if $dd^cf = 0$ for a smooth function $f$, then $f = Re(h)$ for some holomorphic function $h$. So, $f$ must be a real function? At least $if$ also satisfies the condition which is not real.

*They say a (1,1)-form with local potentials can be described as  a closed $(1,1)$-form $\theta$ on $X$ that is locally of the form $\theta = dd^cu$ for a smooth function $u$. I wnt to prove this. First, I need to use the short exact sequence
$$0\rightarrow\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X\rightarrow \mathcal A^0_X\rightarrow \mathcal A_X^0/\mathfrak R\mathcal O_X\rightarrow 0$$
but I have no idea explicitly what the first map is?

*They mention that a closed $(1,1)$-forms and currents on $X$ are not necessary locally $dd^c$-exact in general. But in my knowledge(I may be wrong), it holds when $X$ is a manifold. What makes it different when $X$ is singular?

A:
closed (1,1)-forms and currents on X
are not necessary locally $dd^c$-exact in general
What makes it different when X is singular?

The obstruction to local $dd^c$-lemma
is $R^1\pi_*(O_{X'})$, where
$\pi:\; X' \to X$ is the resolution of
singularities. When $X$ is smooth
(more generally, when it
has rational singularities), this sheaf is
trivial, but if the singularities are bad
(say, when $X$ is the cone over a curve
of big genus), local $dd^c$-lemma might
fail.

It implies if $dd^cf=0$ for a smooth function $f$, then
$f=Re(h)$ for some holomorphic function $h$. So, $f$ must be a
real function?

This is usually assumed. If $f$ is complex,
its real and imaginary parts are both real
parts of (a priori, different) holomorphic
functions.

!!! note
    Context, produced by `GenericsResolver` is just a convenient utility
    to simplify usage. Internally it consists of a Map with resolved type generics and
    utilities calls, which may be used directly.

!!! tip
    If known generics exists only as List, then it can be converted to map with:

    ```java
    Map<String, Type> generics = GenericsUtils.createGenericsMap(Some.class, knownGenericsList);
    ```
    (often required conversion)

## Utilities

`TypeUtils` - pure types operations (unknown generics ignored)
like `.isCompatible(Type, Type) == boolean`, `.getMoreSpecific(Type, Type)`, `.isAssignable(Type, Type)`

`TypeToStringUtils` - various to string helper methods

`GenericsUtils` - generics manipulations (all `resolve*` methods from context)
(requires known generics map to properly resolve types).

`GenericsResolutionUtils` - class analysis (mostly useful for root type resolution - hierarchy computation).
Creates generics maps, used for type resolutions. Special, and most useful case is direct class generics
resolution (lower bounds): `GenericResolutionUtils.resolveRawGenetics(Class type) == Map<String, Type>`

`GenericsTrackingUtils` - resolution of root class's unknown generics by known middle class generics.
Used to compute more specific generics for root class before actual resolution (for inlying contexts).

`GenericInfoUtils` - `GenericsInfo` factory for all cases: direct class, sub type, and sub type with target class.
Essentially it's the same as GenericsResolver but without context wrapping (navigator) and without cache.

!!! warning
    Some methods may not do what you expect! For example `TypeUtils.getOuter(Type)` is not the same as
    `Classs#getEnclosingClass()` (which returns outer class for static classes and interfaces too).
    Another example is `ToStringUtils.toStringType()` which prints outer class only if provided type
    is ParameterizedType with not null owner. I essence, api oriented to generic resolution cases and
    all edge cases are described in javadoc.

!!! tip
    See utiltity classes or javadoc for actual api methods. Almost all of them contain examples inside javadoc
    (no need to duplicate detailed description here).

## Special maps

Special maps may be used for generics resolution:

* `IgnoreGenericsMap` - use to ignore unknown generics (instead of fail).
For example, `GenericsUtils.resolveClass(List<T>, new IgnoreGenericsMap()) == List.class`
* `PrintableGenericsMap` - special map for `TypeToStringUtils` to print unkown generics (instead of fail).
For example, `TypeToStringUtils.toStringType(List<T>, new PrintableGenericsMap()) == "List<T>"`

WE LOVE Michelle Obama here at The Voice. We admire the US First Lady for her intelligence, her people skills, her style, and the fact that she is a great role model for black women everywhere.
She is a strong and articulate personality in her own right and a great ambassador for the White House. We also love her fashion sense (most of the time!). Here we look back over the past four weeks to see some of the outfits Michelle has been wearing. No need for captions, just look and tell us what you think.


This beautiful holiday home is situated on a hill, not far away from the town of Buzet. The colourful facade makes it recognisable from a far distance. The swimming pool in front of the house offers freshness during hot summer days, while the evenings can be spent in the entertainment room. The holiday home comprises three storeys and offers additional privacy as the floors are separate and are connected by external stairs. Each storey has its own terrace, where you can enjoy a glass of quality local wine and a nice view. On the ground floor there is a large dining space with kitchen where guests can dine together. Otherwise, each floor has its own kitchen.

← Simply Beautiful 1 – delicacy in the border.
Sometimes something happens that will remain with you for ever, a fleeting moment when Mother Nature shouts out, "Hey! Look at me! Check this out!". She puts on a great show which disappears as quickly and silently as it appeared a short few moments previously.
While following one of our slow monthly ramblings around the Dorothy Clive Garden looking at what the garden had to offer especially for this month, we were, to say the least, waylaid by the weather.
As we walked slowly down the sloping path to the lower garden and the pool, we photographed the birches, trunks pale against the deep evergreen conifers behind them.
We looked over the hedge, the garden boundary, out and across to the countryside beyond. We saw that the light was changing rapidly and dramatically lighting up the countryside. A darkness crept over the approaching clouds which became the darkest blue-grey possible. Combined with the bright shafts of low November sunlight we were suddenly surrounded by the strangest weather we could ever remember.
The birches against their dark backgrounds lit up further. In a matter of seconds it was all magic surrounding us. The first two pics are the first pair prior to the light change, and the following three illustrate the changes those few moments in time produced.
Just look at the subtle changes in these three photos below taken just seconds apart. Look at the light on each tree and the reflection!
We will now share the changing scenes of a fleeting moment in time with you via a gallery of photos shown in the order I took them. Enjoy.
Things began to calm down as a dark cloud took over the sky once again and we enjoyed a final view from this lovely garden bench. It is strange to think that this this beautiful short passage of time which changed our view of trees and the garden in general will never be seen again. An unforgettable experience and an unrepeatable performance!
What a special moment, a moment we will never forget. In the short time this special lighting was putting on its special personalised show for us we were so excited and couldn't stop pointing out special moments to share.
In my next post I will share the rest of our November visit to the Dorothy Clive Garden.
