Ultimate 1 - kako bi ga opisal?

How would you describe Ultimate to someone who does not know it?

Ultimate is a combination of three sports: 1) American Football - the field set up is similar, with end zones at either end, and the object is to advance the disc into one of those while preventing the opposing team from advancing it into the other. 2) Basketball - the person catching the disc can not run after gaining possession, instead they must establish a pivot foot at one spot on the field while they look for a teammate to throw to next. 3) Soccer (or proper football! :) – lots of sprinting, changing direction, and moving without the disc to create spaces on the field which your team can attack.

To take the Black

Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.

For the past half a year, these books have been ruling my waking hours, commanding the spare time I had. Loved every minute of it! (Although Geroge R. R. Martin could, every now and then, leave out some of the descriptions of the feasts they are having within.)

SLOVENSKE SVEČE GORE V NOČ

V SLOVENIJI NI KRIZE!
Kako lahko kupimo največ (predragih!) sveč per capita, če je pa TAKA kriza!
Al zdej vsi moljo poleg svetim Trem še k vsem prednikom, ki jih imajo?
"Oče moj, ki si v grobu, pomagaj mi plačat račune ..."

KulLaži, fotografska razstava Ajde Tomazin

Dopadel se mi je spremni tekst k razstavi, komentar Ajde Tomazin. Pa tudi razstava je kar fletna pejte pogledat. V kavarni KUD-a FP je.

/.../ Razstava želi reflektirati današnjo družbo, ki je obsedena z dogajanjem v življenju drugih.
Kdo žura, kolikokrat seksa, kdaj gre na morje, ali je v odprtem ali zapletenem razmerju, koliko ima FB prijateljev ...
 
  Ljudje obožujejo, da razgališ svojo intimo, svoje življenje, pa tudi, če jim v naslovu poveš, da so to laži. /.../

Music ...

Music. You just gotta love it.

For its elegance, its fluidity, tranquility it brings.
THE SOUND.
Simply ... music.

Generacije

Konflikti med
generacijami so stari
toliko kot civilizacija
sama. Na štiri tisoč let
stari glineni ploščici
piše:  

Današnja
mladina je nemogoča.
Ne pozna nobene
odgovornosti in
spoštovanja, po glavi ji
rojijo same neumnosti.

Obama Turns 50 Despite Republican Opposition

August 4, 2011 | ISSUE 47•31 

WASHINGTON—After months of heated negotiations and failed attempts to achieve any kind of consensus, President Obama turned 50 years old Thursday, drawing strong criticism from Republicans in Congress. "With the host of problems this country is currently facing, the fact that our president is devoting time to the human process of aging is an affront to Americans everywhere," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who advocated a provision to keep Obama 49 at least through the fall of 2013. "To move forward unilaterally and simply begin the next year of his life without bipartisan support—is that any way to lead a country?" According to White House officials, Obama attempted to work with Republicans right up until the Aug. 4 deadline, but was ultimately left with no choice except to turn a year older.
