Birthday Cakes Images(bike)

Common


celebrated yesterday at Holy Family extolling its virtues, even from a historical point of view we have no reliable information. We proclaim the triad of Nazareth as a perfect family, but we can hardly identify with something perfect . After all, few of us were welcomed, loved, protected, educated by a father and a biological mother as was Jesus. When this occurs, absenteeism, violence, authoritarianism, dropouts, discrimination brought forth by parents and brothers leave their indelible marks on body and mind. What family is this, anyway? Which, of Nazareth or ours? The first super-idealized, but unrealistic. The second, contradictory, imperfect, but real, concrete historical. This is ours! Still, we continue to repeat to ourselves and the world that the family of Nazareth is the true: Dad, Mom and little children loved. This family model imploded many decades in the West and the East. The reduction of social control of moralistic, changes in work / economy in which women took an active way, the pan-sexualization of inter-personal disputes and rivalries that are social embedded and reproduced in scope 'family', the end of the persecution of people with diverse sexual orientations and specific, the growing disappearance of forms of family solidarity grounded in blood, cronyism, reciprocity, and many other elements to the emergence of numerous forms to be 'family'. Regardless of cultural legacy and consolidated.

The challenge for the human being that comes through even choosing to organize forms of social cohesion, club, cohabitation of all kinds is whether there is still room for feelings and emotions. If our social and family structures still believe and can provide acceptance, protection, tenderness, love and why not .... its members, or the sophistication and the growing individualism of the forms of social cohesion 'these things' are nothing more than obsolete elements. Unable to answer the true wishes 'human'. The human future. If you are 'things we corny and igrejeiros' or dimensions that carry the full human being. Personally I have done my choice. The 'bug man', ie, a hominid species to survive and ensure a balanced future for themselves and the environment that keeps him alive it needs love. No matter if offered by a couple of different sex, or even by an uncle or grandmother, for an older brother or a godmother, a 'stranger or a neighbor. " The ability to offer love, protect, care for, to be close, lead by the hand and sit on someone's lap is still output to the planetary family. Will not be perfect as of Nazareth, but will rise to more than monsters and that is not self-destructive.

Why Is My Ring Toe Itchy And Red?

Beyond all the rhetoric: MERRY CHRISTMAS!

yuletide In almost all is forgiven. The excesses of gifts, the tired, traditional and formal votes of 'Happy Holidays', the abuse of rhetoric Christmas, the 'Unforgettable' promises are not kept for personal change. The oath about what we hold most dear that from the 'Today / Natal' we will find time to devote to his children, elderly parents, we give more attention to people who are on our side, who started what we remains trapped and dependent. Anyway, truisms and lero-Leros where we lie to ourselves and one mind to another. This pretends to believe, but know it is not as it seems. Anyway, at Christmas, there seems to be a tacit agreement supra-cultural and supra-religious so that everything is imbued with harmony, of peace, of universal goodness, solidarity, amnesty, even for a ... days. It seems the magic of Christmas itself, which requires universally enshrined not be broken. Can be a little unique form of humans - at least those of a certain culture - they say to themselves, wishing they could be different. That creating real conditions - which are at your fingertips - would rather fulfill the promise that in fact or wish each other only formally, and for a day. Christmas, above all, can mean that humanity has the potential to, in fact, not only formally want peace, harmony, solidarity and fraternity, but historically do it all. Because it expresses consciousness conference of the lack of it all. Even if you are unable or unwilling to implement. Earlier the later, we celebrate the traditionally formal and eventually turning into something real. Denying that the lack of harmony, peace, solidarity, fraternity finally knocked on our door? These deficiencies, in general, if not addressed can not forgive! Without rhetoric: MERRY CHRISTMAS!

The land of the Hawk / Pukobyê: between lies and manipulations

There undergo the 'experts' who think they know everything about everything. Sell \u200b\u200bversions and numbers as they themselves grow chayote in the backyard of his house. They know that behind the numbers are realities, people, trends. But its purpose is only to 'prove' his own truth arithmetically. Their interests. But, after all, numbers are numbers that express .... consolidated data and irrefutable. To these numbers we want to turn our gaze and our reason.

I'm referring specifically to the issue of demarcation of the new Governor of the People Hawk / Pukobyê, Amarante, Maranhão, and Veja magazine a few weeks ago dealt with the irresponsibility which is customary. Several local journalists undergo the pseudo-analysts gave a wide coverage to exposure of arguments - nothing civilized - the magazine published nationally. The 'ventriloquists' sites reproduced the pearls that Veja parading without even checking if it was released corresponded to the minimal logic ... and the real numbers.

read in the See, for example, that the Hawk are just 500, but there are about 1,000 (Funai 2009). are said to be three villages, but they are 6 (Funai 2009). Worse, it is stated that the new land would increase to 75% of the area occupied by indigenous people within the municipal area. Well, well, well .... the surface is 7669.090 km Amarante squares (IBGE 2010). That is, more than 766 000 hectares of land. This is a fact undisputed and consolidated. Currently the Governor of Pukobyê land that is 42054.73 ha. and thus holds just over 5% (five percent) of the territory of Amarante. Even with its expansion - whose size is not planned - but is estimated by some at around 150 to 200 000, the surface that would occupy indigenous lands within the municipality would not surpass 25% (25 percent). We're way beyond the 75% propagated by Veja magazine and the ranchers in the region, according to which the expansion goes ahead, would make the economy site. Archaic arguments used by other colleagues in office (read: the Ze Doca about the land-Awa Guajá) Not to mention, of course, the fact that the criteria to be adopted - and over which the Funai is based - not are neither arithmetic nor circumstantial, but of history and anthropology, as defined in specific legislation. That is, nothing against the law!

now contemplate some numbers that IBGE itself opened up: in 2006 the area of \u200b\u200bagricultural establishments in Amarante was 159,278 hectares. Today should have increased significantly. More: 99,726 hectares were occupied by different pastures (planted, natural, degraded, good, etc..) Must be a lot more now. Not all that funny? To defend an extension of land that ultimately gets the UNION, the common heritage - though used by indigenous people - everyone gets up and kicking. To order the owner of the ox and the ox that always occupies more arable land that could be distributed more reasonable for those who really need land, all silent. Does the wrong country? Amarante became India? Passed by some Hindu proclaiming the "sanctity of cows'?

Kates Playground Legal Name

... The first birthday

Written by Elena and Alfredo
Today is Luke's first birthday!
... Seems like yesterday at 1:30 in the morning we woke up because "maybe we" and that was the beginning of a wonderful journey as the birth and growth of our Luke!
This year we have lived very hard and the presence of Luke from the first moment was a fantastic experience for us, every moment was very intense, even the moments "hard" as the risers at night to eat it, or cuddle crying because we remember them with great tenderness ...
Now he begins to walk even if held for both hands and look at every moment its "evolution" (come more like a Swiss watch to completion of each month) and will be for us the memories that remain indelible in our hearts for a lifetime.
Happy first birthday puppy!
