Alguma coisa esta fora da ordem ...

Gente aglomerada, auto-falantes, musica, faixas, placas, gente colorida e fantasiada; mas ate entao "so" bastante gente.Subi num ponto de onibus pra ver de cima; ai sim de pra entender melhor o que tava acontecendo ali. Muita, mas muita, gente. A praca tomada, todas as ruas, em todas direcoes, cheias de gente.Ja estive em shows grandes, jogos de futebol, e nao, ali nao tinham 30 mil pessoas como disseram alguns jornais no Brasil, e sim facilmente as 100 mil noticiadas pela policia Dinamarquesa.Mas o mais impressionante desse Sabado em Copenhagen nao foi a multidao de pessoas, e sim sua diversidade. Grupos, organizacoes e etinias de toda parte. Europeus, africanos, latino americanos, asiaticos, a ate esquimos! Cada um com seu ponto de vista e ideologia, mas em um sincronizado e bonito acordo geral com uma causa em comum.

Nao sei ao certo o que vai sair da cupula das Nacoes Unidas; nao acredito que um acordo legalmente vinculante va sair dali. Claro que isso seria fantastico, mas mto mais do que a fantasia, precisariamos de algo real. Acordos, mesmo com implicacoes legais, poderiam chegar a nao serem respeitados, e entao ficariamos na mesma. O mais importante acaba sendo entao a mudanca de atitude e postura; assim talvez a marcha dos 100 mil e outros protestos do tipo, as articulacoes e aliancas politicas (tanto la dentro quanto la fora), talvez sejam o maior e mais significante produto dessa conferencia.Ha uma vontade de mudanca de muita coisa e, mais do que isso, a vontade passa a um grau de organizacao e extensao bem significativo.

Ficou ainda mais nitido Domingo, quando assistia a um dos lideres da Via Campesina discursar no palco da "Assemblei do Povo" (um espaco aberto a representantes quaisquer grupos ou individuos), na conferencia paralela Klimaforum, afirmar com o mesmo sentimento descrito acima, ha uma nova "uniao" por uma causa comum.

Sendo assim, volto no ponto, independente do desfecho da COP-15, esse eh um momento historico no sentido de uma nova ordem mundial. Espero.

Triste

Ele era um guardião (meio humano meio onça) do mundo espiritual, numa tumba em algum lugar no Sul da Colombia; agora é só mais uma peça num museu aí.

Registro Geraldo, vulgo Cracha

Contratado por sua mania: crachas e cartoes de identificacao.

Ele adora saber a identidade das pessoas; verificar a prova fisica e concreta de que elas sao algo mais do que simples individuos anonimos em meio a um mar de gente; sao "pessoas fisicas"; registradas; cadastradas; catalogadas.

Registro Geral. Cracha. ID. Ah, como ele adora...

Trabalha na portaria de um predio qualquer e faz por valer sua vontade maniaca: exige que todos mostrem seus ids e crachas ao passar por ele!! E ai dos que nao mostrarem! Se irrita, reclama, exige e, por mais absurdo que pareca, se irrita, exige que mostre e nao deixa passar!!
Eh, nao deixa mesmo; nao mostrou o cracha, nao passa!!

Punctuation is everything:

That that is is that that is not is
not is that it it is

as I said:

That that is,is.
That that is not, is not.
Is that it? it is.

For the ladies:

A woman, without her man, is nothing.

A woman: without her, man is nothing.

"Who's gonna save me?"

Going through a blog I always read I saw this campaign that grabbed my interest for some different reasons. First of all is a campaign tackling the climate change issue, aiming to raise the profile of the discussion for the meeting that is going to take place in Copenhagen in December. At the flat this meeting has been a recurrent topic since our Climate/Technology/Weird Parties correspondent Filipe "Pimpo" Moura is going to be there, in the middle of the protests.

Anyway, the campaing consists of 60 artists such as Jamie Cullum, Mark Ronson, Duran Duran, Lily Allen and Bob Geldof singing a song. The video follows:



What reached to me the most wasn't the "concerned" looks the artists had on their faces or the "We Are The World" appeal of the whole campaign. It was actually the song itself, which was written and recorded originally by Midnight Oil, an Australian band that I listened to a lot some 8 years ago. Here's the original version.

Hearing the song again made me go back and listen to some of their albums and remeber the band's history, which has a lot to do with militant atittudes towards the enviroment and specially the situation of the aborigins in Australia.

Another important song in this context is "Blue Sky Mine"(also follow the lyrics here), which according to SongFacts:

"...refers to the Wittenoom asbestos mine in Western Australia where blue asbestos was mined between 1947 and 1966. The once-thriving town is now a virtual ghost town. Shops are boarded up, the 2 schools are closed, the local cinema is derelict. In their ignorance, the original settlers used asbestos in gardens, school yards and roads. Wittenoom is without doubt Australia's greatest industrial disaster and it is estimated that 25% of the 20,000 men who mined asbestos there will die from related diseases."

And that's it for my nostalgic afternoon.

Cheers,

Coxa

P.S.: The cover song is available to download for free on the campaign's official website and by downloading it you are increasing the number of people involved in it, which gives them more visibility.

It Happened like this

Basicaly, this two guys bought Christian the Lion at Harrods in order to keep the animal as a pet. But after a little while the lion got too big for the enviroment that he was living in (London and England country side).
So then, they decided to bring the lion back to his natural habitat, in Africa some where... Traveling on them own car!
This adventure became into a book and some videos of the meeting after a year of the lions freedom, were recorded.

Banana Message

It makes me wonder: could there be hidden patterns in bananas? Could
them be trying to communicate and tell us something? A message?
Something they wanna tell you or the world about?

Could be...
