Rulan Gardner Bad Luck

backlights. Flower

northwest wind blows peeling the outer leaves and dragging the gray clouds that water the parched earth of the Linear Park, while the timid tit singing can be heard in the eerie silence of the engines. Dancing skeletons of bare trees, while the firecrackers scared the dream of those early-morning nap pending the conclusion of the nightly ritual of celebrating the last day.

A lonely old woman walks slowly down the sidewalk, fanning the memories, like grass Maroon to the winter arrives. Some young immigrants seek their future in garbage cans. Family Discussions reached its peak in front of the TV trying to realize the clothes they wear on a special night. Some hundreds of people in distant conflicts that dot the planet, followed by the incredible feeling to be produced sporty driving that the penultimate model multinational just reset your template to keep the profit curve. Depressed hearts increase as much as scented bodies.

Creating a gloomy landscape of reflected light, human brotherhood is expressed in thousands of SMS and e-mails that disguise selfishness by having more necessary. The good intentions for the future are raised on this unbalanced desire. We all want happiness for 10 seconds.

choricero A string of Santas hanging from some windows, and the rooms a warm Christmas tree lights up a nativity scene made in china. In this time of Christmas spending amid the economic crisis (more for some than others) and with 29 recognized wars on this planet (ISO), I find it difficult to capture the simple beauty of this humble city park.

But beyond our human history, the morning light still staining liquid and flowing waters of the lake.

Lake sunsets that grant him a sea of \u200b\u200blights horizon

and shadows at night take the shine of its watery urban reflections.

the foggy blur their profiles mists

and covers, like white sheet, ice and snow.

In my walk through the cold autumnal

discover a flock of finches male seeking a livelihood in their migration celibate.

And the steppe hoopoe, with its beak still muddy after chase in damp earth.

I also bump into who mocks my "trot mess" to burn fat, while he is ridden by his best friend bound, without being reflected at any time. So we are.

persist in my efforts, and climb the "mountain valley, from the hills and watch this little island plant is Palomeras Linear Park,

having just prune - maul in their low branches,

now that lichens are full of joy wet the bark of trees.

the end I'm back-to rest my troubled mind that never stops jumping, with her ass on land and awareness of breathing, trying to digest this reality that I live.

Health and friendship from the Linear Park.

Bella's Printer In New Moon

Madrid, Madrid forgotten the pediment

In the neighborhood of Chamberí, at number 7 on the calle Marqués de Riscal, a plot of 3600 m2, is a treasure, a unique example of iron architecture in Madrid and only neomudéjar pediment of the world: The Beti-Jai Fronton .

This jewel of Madrid's architecture is unknown by even many of his neighbors neighborhood, and seems to be doomed the absolute abandonment. The pediment is privately owned and is now crumbling, in a shameful and pitiful state, consumed by weeds and garbage.

In the nineteenth and early twentieth century, the locals were very fond of the game ball in the city were 20 gables. The fronton Beti-Jai opened in 1 894 and the architect Joaquín Rucoba and Octavio de Toledo, who designed the image and likeness of the Beti-Jai of San Sebastian. Highlights its style and multiple neomudéjar wrought iron details. It also has as original frescoes and decorative tiles. The building is 11m high by 67 m in length and 20m in width and gable stopped working in 1919 and then passed into private hands. So the 90 has been used as police station and prison during the Civil War, car garage, workshop plaster objects ... His condition is dilapidated and covered with wood is badly damaged.

El Fronton was Monument 1977 and National Cultural Property in 1991. Recently, the City of Madrid and Madrid have forced the owner to retain its current structure, beams, floors, the facade. But no date and no money for rehabilitation. The recovery of the building is not yet assured.

The origin of the city of Madrid remains

The founding of the city of Madrid was carried out in the ninth century, during the Arab domination of the Iberian Peninsula.

However, there are archaeological remains prior to this time in the region of Madrid. Bear in mind that the area was rich in rivers and streams, abundant pastures and forests, and that is why since prehistoric times, the valley of the Manzanares has been visited by the Paleolithic nomads who hunted and gathered in their search for food. During the Neolithic period, developed small villages on the banks of rivers. There Roman villas also agriculture, such as Casa de Campo, and Villaverde Carabanchel which placed near the Roman roads. It is quite evident that the Visigoths also transiting the area. However, there is no evidence yet that a city existed as such before the arrival of Muslims.

Madrid is located in the center of the Iberian Peninsula and was therefore crossroads to major cities of the time, as routes linking Titulcia Segovia, Titulcia-Alcalá, and Alcalá-Segovia. It is also in a high area, along the Manzanares River, and with exceptional views of the Sierra de Somosierra. Its geographical location was excellent and had with many natural resources needed for subsistence.

was the Emir of Córdoba, Muhammad I (850-866), who orders up a hill on the left bank of the Manzanares River, a fortified castle that was part of a defensive network of watchtowers and castles in the border region called Marca Media to protect from attacks by the Christian kingdoms of North Toledo, capital in Visigothic times.

fantastic drawing allows us to imagine how it could be the construction of the Moorish castle of Madrid, image from the book: "Historia de la Villa y Corte de Madrid" by Jose Amador de los Rios. Madrid 1861


Madrid's foundation should then for political reasons, military and strategic. The defensive network of watchtowers and fortresses controlled the steps and Somosierra ports and Guadarrama and tried to dissuade the Christian troops not to go near Toledo. If they tried to attack the watchtower communicate with each other during the day by smoke and bonfires at night, giving advance notice of the offensive Christian.

Several watchtowers remain Muslim today, Torrelodones, The Berrueco, Ventura, among others.


The fortified castle or fortress was inhabited by soldiers, and occupied the place where it is now the Palace Real. Beside him is a core set of urban population supplied the soldiers with food and other services. Born then an Arab city, or medina, which was fortified and became known as the Mayrit. But this will be another

sunrises still looking out the Linear Park and turn their roads to be busy, despite the injuries urbanizing. From the ground to the sky has formed a rainbow of autumn colors. Wet vital transit consciousness I aspire to myself and sooth the soul. After the corner of a block of flats lies loquat blossom, which perfumed with the sweet aroma that filled with bad air in the smoke do not stop to consider new cities. Music charcoal, Robins, mosquito nets, redstarts and launderers seeking green living on this reservation, where inmates are abused our older brothers: the trees. At night you can see the sea of \u200b\u200blights marking the reefs of brick and tar roads. I smell bad this waste without end. continuous media in the sky noise of promise for the future, the silence of this disappointing. Political puppet making function. That tostón. life I keep looking and grabbing. Inspire, retain, expired. A time to meet in the midst of so much concrete. Between pages (http://www.ucm.es/info/bas/utopia/html/eco.htm) and trails, follow my path, guided by the sweet aroma of the flower of the loquat.

To visit the site of Navalvillar , we get to the pasture by the talanquera of Remedios, with Military Logistics Base San Pedro and walk just 15 minutes down a country road with low difficulty. The road is beautiful with the hills of San Pedro in the background, and evidence of the intensive cattle breeding. Find sources, water troughs for animals ... This time the cows were grazing in the distance.
The site is easily identifiable because it is fenced and a sign at the entrance tells us what Visigothic the sixth and seventh centuries AD and is a farm devoted primarily to sheep. The excavation consists of several buildings that serve as housing (identified by the existence of land oscurezida the ashes of the home), stables, warehouses, all surrounded by a stone wall. The cabins have a base of stone and adobe walls. Were used as cover or timber and clay tiles.
