sorry I meant e.u. secretary
Thursday night's dinner party will be just that.... a party. A gathering of European latter day earls, barons and viscounts where in lavish style they will toast the appointment of a voice at the end of a phone when the rest of the world want to speak to europe.............The real president of europe is germany's angela merkel, good choice and her vice president is nicolas sarkozy. It all smacks of a bit of power sharing amoungst the middle aristocracy.....or maybe a upgrade of a German Politbüro.........the message from the people is clear....don't mess up.

“Dimension” is a contemporary and reflective narrative about the Europe project. It describes a number of specific European and near East events since 1973 till present. Through a spectrum of culture, politics, tradition, conflict, hope and endurance, it focuses on the evolution of the new Union Superstate, a time period of reform, development, identity and political direction. It is a visual and written account where citizens are at the heart of stories affecting their lives and future; as recorded in the diary of Daniel T. M. Guerlain, photojournalist and documentary photographer. © All rights reserved.

The Review Page: Violence, Veils and Bloodlines
Trying to eradicate tribalism from the world would be a futile endeavour. But Salome hopes that his readers learn to recognize the common traits they share with people all over the world, and thereby develop tolerance and compassion for other tribes. The biggest and broadest tribe is one to which we all belong, and that’s the human race. Click on image to go to the review page.

This is a little spot on Derry's Walls where girls from a nearby school meet as a private location to discuss things and do things and plan things. It is a long road ahead for these unsuspecting hopefuls.
King anniversary
A picture from Berlin. A Martin Luther King poster I think translates as "Expressing the truth needs courage." Although this was taken in 2006 I feel it can be put to use to celebrate the King anniversay.
