Back to North Pole !

Here I am back after a few days of absence. As every year I took the Artic Express to the North Pole. Santa needed help preparing his toy distribution tour.

Now on the way to 2017 !!!

Back from North Pole !

Paris, 13/11/2015 - 13/11/2016, we do not forget ...

We all have today a thought for all those young and old, french or foreign, catholics, muslims, jews or atheists who died, a november evening when they had gone to laugh, share a moment with family or friends, to live... simply !

A year later we do not forget them, I do not forget them. So today, I imagined that I was tagging this wall to pay homage to them...

  

To not forget...

Then I imagined that I put myself on the piano and that I began to play and sing this beautiful song by Damien SAEZ ; (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHv2zR2DqzU)

Les Enfants Paradis 

Ils étaient des sourires, ils étaient des sanglots
Ils étaient de ces rires que font les chants d’oiseaux
Ils étaient des matins quand on va bord de mer
Ils étaient cœur chagrin, ils étaient cœur lumière
Ils étaient des poèmes, Ils étaient des oiseaux
Ils étaient des je t’aime qu’on dit bord du ruisseau
Ils étaient du café, ils étaient du bistrot
Ils étaient étrangers, ils étaient sans drapeau

Ils étaient de Paris, ils étaient de province
Ils étaient cœurs de pluie qui font cœurs qui grincent
Ils étaient pleins de vie, avaient l’œil du printemps
Ils étaient cœurs qui rient quand le ciel est pleurant
Ils étaient des promesses, ils étaient devenir
Ils étaient bien trop jeunes oui pour devoir partir
Ils étaient fils d’Orient ou fils de l’Occident
Enfants du paradis, enfants du Bataclan

Ils étaient cœur français ou international
Ils étaient la rosée qui pleure de sous le châle
Ils étaient des promesses, ils étaient des bourgeons
Qui font monter tristesse, ils étaient des chansons
Ils étaient des familles, ils étaient des amis
Ils étaient ce qui brille dans le ciel de la nuit
Ils étaient amoureux ceux qui se sont blottis
L’un contre l’autre à deux, contre la tyrannie

Ils étaient comme toi, ils étaient comme moi
Ils n’étaient pas guerriers mais sont morts au combat
Ils étaient cœur d’amour, ils étaient cœur qui bat
Puis qui battra toujours même en-dessous la croix
Ils étaient ces amis que je connaissais pas
Ils étaient mon pays et puis le tien je crois
Ils resteront Paris, Paris se souviendra
Toujours de ces amis la lumière brillera

Ils s’appelaient je t’aime, ils s’appelaient jeunesse
Ils s’appelaient poème, ils s’appelaient tendresse
Ils s’appelaient frangine, ils s’appelaient frangin
Ils s’appelaient gamine, ils s’appelaient gamin
Ils s’appelaient la joie et puis la non violence
Ils s’appelaient je crois les enfants de la France
De tout les horizons puis de tous les prénoms
Ils s’appelaient amour, s’appelaient l’horizon

Ils s’appelaient Jacques Brel puis je crois Barbara
Ils s’appelaient le ciel, ils s’appelaient pourquoi
Toujours ici sommeil l’horreur au creux du bois
Qui rejoint l’éternel va l’innocent je crois
Ils étaient poing levé, ils étaient nos concerts
Ils étaient cœurs serrés oui face aux tortionnaires
Ils étaient cœur d’œillets, des fleurs face au fusil
À nos cœurs endeuillés nous pleurons nos amis

À l’innocent qu’on tue, oui, tombé sous les balles
Au soldat inconnu sous l’horreur des mitrailles
Si sont les lettres mortes, les cantiques du chagrin
Puisque frappe à la porte les plaines de Verdun
Si sont tombés ce soir, en ce vendredi noir,
Les frères de mon pays, nous laissant désespoir
Mon pays ta culture est morte, assassinée
Mais tu sais ma culture non ne mourra jamais

Toi mon pays Molière, toi mon pays Vinci,
Toi mon pays Voltaire, toi mon pays Valmy
Toi mon pays la Terre, toi mon pays Paris,
Toi mon pays par terre, relève-toi mon pays
Toi mon pays lumière, toi mon pays la vie
Mon pays littéraire, mon pays triste vie
Toi mon pays mes frères, toi frère de mon pays
Comme on chérit sa mère, on chérit sa patrie

"Ils peuvent assassiner nos corps mais pas nos âmes
Le souffle du néant n’éteindra pas la flamme..."

  

"They can murder our bodies but not our souls,  

The breath of nothingness will not extinguish the flame..."

- Damien Saez -

The Swedish Coast Guards in training...

Every Tuesday we usually meet at our base for trainings. These can be of different types. They may include aerial training, maritime patrols, firefighting exercises or even parachute jumps. We never get bored and these exercises always take place in a good atmosphere.

Here are some pictures taken during one of our last training sessions.

The training has just begun ; I just left the base...

We can see in front Tristan's boat that I have to follow in an agreed distance...

We meet for a short stop at the gathering point we had been given...

On board his helicopter D-139, Sven, the boss observes and ensures the smooth running of operations...

After each training, we usually meet at the officers' mess to debrief by sharing a good beer ... But this time I had proposed that we find ourselves at home...

Sven seems exhausted by this training or is it the whiskey ?

If you are interested in breathing in the lungs sea air iodine or if it is the rise of adrenaline due to altitude that tempts you, join us ! Adventures and good atmosphere guaranteed !

The Vordun, a must-see place !

If you like culture, museums, painting exhibitions, I invite you to discover "The Vordun". It is an extraordinary museum with an exhibition currently called "the european masters - 300 years of painting". When you enter the museum you get an audioguide as in RL that gives you the comments of each painting. Be sure to not miss that and to go check it out this weekend !

Here is the TP-taxi to The Vordun :

Yeeeaaah! A new Madpea game!!!

For the end of that summer, the Madpea games staff had the good idea to propose a new game. No doubt that this new game wich is titled "The Lost Treasure of The Inca Warrior" will fill many of us! Here is the story :

"Ancient Incan stories whisper of a hidden cave in the remote mountains of Ecuador, where a vault lay sheltered from the light of day, untouched for centuries. According to legend, the vault is filled with precious gems and unimaginable treasures that are ripe for the taking. Previous explorers have left a map that leads to the place the locals call “The Devil’s Cave” Scribbled on the back of the map are notes citing encounters with horrific creatures and deadly traps that guard the cave. Many who have tried to find the treasure returned with terrible injuries, missing limbs, and some never returned at all. However, not everyone is so unfortunate, and that is why we’re offering you the chance of a lifetime.

MadPea Cartographers have deciphered the cryptic treasure map for you. This will not be an easy task, but if you survive and unlock the ancient Incan vault, you will be generously rewarded. Ready for a Treasure Hunt of a lifetime!?

If you’re feeling adventurous, pack your bags and journey to The Devil’s Cave!

so, WILL YOU RISK YOUR LIFE FOR TREASURE AND GLORY?

Me? Of course! 

As you can imagine, I could not remain indifferent to this call for new adventures in which I will have to deal with hostile creatures and to be wary of traps of all kinds.

 
So without hesitation I prepare everything I need and I am off to new adventures!

The elders say that few explorers returned alive; the curse is still there! I must be very careful!

Beltaine Celtic Festival

In the beginning of May took place the Celtic festival of Beltane ! Yeah ok, I already hear you  asking in chorus way : "Iasfy, what is Beltaine ? Fortunately for you I can try to answer of your question since I'm an Occult Sciences Student and since I participate at the excellent and sooooo interesting class taught by Tamlord, our Professor (a talented and so cute Professor) and because Wikipedia helped me too !

So, .Beltane (Bealtaine, Beltane or Beilteine, Beltan in Breton, Cornish and Welsh) is the third of the four major religious festivals of the Celtic year proto, celebrated on May 1st. It comes after Samhain and Imbolc and marks the end of the dark season and the start of the season clear. It is related Belenos, Lug and Belisama. The main ritual consists of Beltaine fires lit by the druids where cattle going deserves protection epidemics in the coming year.

Tamlord, Priest of Beltane ceremony and also our class Professor

It marks the beginning of the summer season and takes place on the full moon of May. Unlike Samhain, Beltane is not a party of the three functions of Celtic society. It is a priestly party, Gaul is related Belenos (avatar of the god Lug primordial form of light) and Belisama (the "Very Bright" consort of the former) and whose meaning is "fire of Bel" . In Ireland, this is the date that arrived the various occupants of the island, if one refers to the Lebor Gabála Érenn (the Books of the conquests of Ireland). It is a renewal of party.

Beltane marks a break in the year, going from the dark season to season clear, bright, but also a change of life because it is the opening of daytime activities: resumption of whaling, war, raids, conquests for warriors, early agrarian and field work for farmers and ranchers. In this sense, it is the complete antithesis of the feast of Samhain. Beltaine is the preferred time for rites of passage between the cold and warm periods, between darkness and light, between symbolic psychic death and spiritual rebirth. Generally, Beltane is a celebration of change of lifestyle. Rhythm of winter, we go to summer pace. The holiday marks the passage physically and spiritually. The ancient rites of confinement in the dolmens of the rooms were going perhaps overnight Beltaine. 

Me and Elror (my cute and beloved Elf !) during the Beltane ceremony

The stories emphasize the fires lit by the druids, uttering magical incantations while passing the cattle between the fires to protect the epidemics throughout the year. The "fire of Bel" (Belemos) is a fiery purification beneficial that the Druids were supposed to create their magic and incantations. The Beltane Fire is powerful, holy and strong, he who lights must be a person of authority. Beltaine is the exaltation of the fire, druidic element par excellence. Assume that the Druids' meeting in the forest of Carnutes, attested by Caesar in the Gallic war, stood at the time of Beltane. Animal sacrifices took place at the time of Beltane to Samhain as they were offered as an offering to the gods. 

Happy Easter

Just few pics to wish you all an Happy Easter !!

What would you do in my place ?

Today it happened something very strange to me ! As the weather was sunny, I'm gone make a forest walk. After one  hour of walking I arrived in a sunny glade and I decided to take a break. I sat on the ground leaning against a tree stump and I dozed. I was awakened by noises and voices all around me. When I opened my eyes, I saw a dozen Leprechaun dancing, running, and happily shouting all around me. I could not believe my eyes as much as the Leprechaun were all naked !! At a moment, one that seemed to be the leader gestured and immediately all Leprechaun stopped fussing. The leader explained that it was imperative that I give them my clothes so he cut them and they will make in their sizes to keep warm this winter. The head of Leprecahun also told me that I would be greatly rewarded if I gave them my clothes... In fact, they promised to give me a pot of gold and a bottle of whiskey as long as I agreed to wearing a green hat and to be maked up. I have not thought very long and I gave them all my clothes except my socks and sneakers !!!

And you, what would you do in my place ?

Happy St. Patrick's Day !

Sunday activities !

Sunday is generally a day where we do not do much, where we rest and it is very well like that !

Yet, this morning, after a good night's sleep, I got up and I went to shower and after shower and a hearty breakfast, I started to write articles on my blog.

If the weather stay fine this afternoon, I'll stroll me or to visit some friends ...

A good and quiet Sunday in prospect !

A good shower to well start the day...

Sitting at my desk...

Relaxing Time...

Here is just a pick I like sooooo much of my beloved friend Elror an me sharing a quiet time sitting outside near the firecamp, highly protected with our warm clothes and blankets. 

It's snowing, all is calm, only the crackling fire disturbs the silence. Under the cover his hands gently caress my chest. I think of nothing, I feel myself completely appeased, I'm happy...

7 years in Second Life and still fun !

Yesterday I celebrated my 7th rez day in SL. For the occasion I had organized a party at Mkalvania and I invited my friends to celebrate the event in joy and good humor. 39 peoples among my friends responded to this invitation. By their presence it was for me the most beautiful of all gifts.

Happy rez day !!!

Lord Mkal had agreed to provide a space for organizing the celebration. Zum' was the DJ of the evening and I must admit that I was was filled and I appreciated so much the diversity of musical choices and spreading a great quality playlist and varied. There was something for everyone. Elror helped me to install space where the party should has to take place.A contest for the best in Black and Red was also proposed and it's the little Eric (Eric Neko) who won that contest. Kip and Chaz, from Blue Balls also contributed in their own way to the success of this event by the provision of some gift cards. I also thank them from the deep ofmy heart for their support.

Yes, 7 years...

Finally Subboy thought to take some pictures you can see here. Fortunately he thought to come with his camera because I was too busy to thank all participants. Those I have forgotten to thank forgive me ! I will have to think to have Sub as my photo assistant !7 years !  7 years spent in this virtual world. So many adventures since that day I discovered this universe. So many adventures and friendships, pleasure, entertaitement, joy... I also had a thought for some of my friends who permanently leave Second Life or who, for some of them also left the RL. I  will never forget them. They are part of my second life ...For the eighth year ahead, I still have plans and I do not boring, I'm sure. I will continue to do shows for Team Toth. A team ? I should say a family. A second family because my first family in second life is Mkalvania: Mkal, Sinthoras, Timy, Kyo, Reiner, Unsube, Schalk (which continues its world tour !!!) Vlastimyl and all others. They gave me all the need to discover this virtual world. They succeeded ! I'm doing things and I still do...
