Common Swift - LASTUNUL





The Common Swift (Apus apus) is a medium-sized bird, superficially similar to the Barn Swallow or House Martin but somewhat larger.
Common Swifts are 16–17 cm long with a wingspan of 38–40 cm and entirely blackish-brown except for a small white or pale grey patch on their chins which is not visible from a distance. They have a short forked tail and very long swept-back wings that resemble a crescent or a boomerang.
Their call is a loud scream in two different tone pitches, the higher of which issues from the female. They often form 'screaming parties' during summer evenings, when 10-20 swifts will gather in flight around their nesting area, calling out and being answered by nesting swifts. Larger "screaming parties" are formed at higher altitudes, especially late in the breeding season. Except when nesting, swifts spend their lives in the air, living on the insects caught in flight; they drink, feed, and often mate and sleep on the wing.[4] No other bird spends as much of its life in flight. Feeding parties can be very large in insect-rich areas, such as wetlands. Reports of as many as 2000 swifts feeding over flooded gravel pits, lakes and marshy river deltas are not uncommon, and may represent an ingress of swifts from within as much as a 100 kilometer radius; swifts nesting in Western Scotland are thought to venture to Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland to feed on the abundant and nutritious "Lough Neagh Fly".

Lăstun este un termen care definește o grupă de păsări formată din ca. 80 de specii care fac parte din familia Hirundinidae (rândunicilor).La fel ca toate rândunicile, lăstunii de casă se hrănesc cu insecte zburătoare, pe care le prind în aer. În sezonul reproductiv zboară, de obicei, la 21 m deasupra solului, anticipând vremea rea sau rece la altitudini mai mici.(http://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C4%83stun_de_cas%C4%83)

Skyfall










"Skyfall"

This is the end
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again

For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamt this moment
So overdue I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together

Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
Where worlds collide and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you'll never have my heart

Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together

Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I'd never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand

Let the sky fall (let the sky fall)
When it crumbles (when it crumbles)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together
At skyfall

Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall

Send me an angel






The wise man said just walk this way
To the dawn of the light
The wind will blow into your face
As the years pass you by
Hear this voice from deep inside
It's the call of your heart
Close your eyes and your will find
The passage out of the dark

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

The wise man said just find your place
In the eye of the storm
Seek the roses along the way
Just beware of the thorns

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

The wise man said just raise your hand
And reach out for the spell
Find the door to the promised land
Just believe in yourself
Hear this voice from deep inside
It's the call of your heart
Close your eyes and your will find
The way out of the dark

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

Scorpions - Send Me an Angel Lyrics

Super Full Moon June 22, 2013

Full moon falls on June 23, 2013 at 11:32 UTC (6:32 a.m. CDT in the U.S.). Thus, for many, the moon appears about as full in the June 22 evening sky as it does on the evening of June 23. This full moon is not only the closest and largest full moon of the year. It also presents the moon’s closest encounter with Earth for all of 2013. The moon will not be so close again until August, 2014. In other words, it’s not just a supermoon. It’s the closest supermoon of 2013.
The astronomers call this sort of close full moon a perigee full moon. The word perigee describes the moon’s closest point to Earth for a given month. Two years ago, when the closest and largest full moon fell on March 19, 2011, many used the term supermoon, which we’d never heard before. Last year, we heard this term again to describe the year’s closest full moon on May 6, 2012. Now the term supermoon is being used a lot. Last month’s full moon – May 24-25, 2013 – was also a supermoon. But the June full moon is even more super! In other words, the time of full moon falls even closer to the time of perigee, the moon’s closest point to Earth. The crest of the moon’s full phase in June 2013, and perigee, fall within an hour of each other.

Ciclop Parking and Graffiti (STREET DELIVERY FESTIVAL)











Opened in 1923, Ciclop is the first multi-storey parking space in Bucharest.
Although it is still functional today, the parking space suffers from an identity “crisis”, lacking a clear direction of development.
With its impressive architecture and historical meaning built over the last century (90 years since its opening), the Ciclop parking space, now “hidden” from public eye, can be rediscovered through artistic interventions and redirected towards a new moment in its “life”.
The invited artists will play with ideas and forms in their own personal and unique style, thus changing the course of the present time.

STREET DELIVERY - PHOTOGRAPHIS
ileana partenie 
Over 35 artists invited from different fields: street art, installation, painting, photography, performance.


Expoziţie de artă contemporană în Parcarea Ciclop din Bucureşti


Ciclop este prima parcare supraetajată din Bucureşti, construită în 1923 şi funcţională şi în prezent. Clădirea nu este foarte fotogenică, se încadrează mai degrabă în categoria blocurilor-mamut, cu un aer trist şi cenuşiu.
Mai mulţi artişti şi-au propus să dea viaţă spaţiului din interiorul parcării, cu pereţii cojiţi şi prăfuiţi, şi au adus un strop de culoare în Parcarea Ciclop printr-o expoziţie non-conformistă de street art, pictură, fotografie, instalaţie.

Street Delivery - BUCURESTI



Misiunea Street Delivery este aceea de a reinventa si de a intari rolul structural pe care spatiul public il joaca in viata locuitorilor cetatii, prin convertirea peisajului urban in spatiu viu.

Street Delivery a reprezentat, începând cu 2006, un cadru în care societatea civilă, artişti, arhitecţi, muzicieni, locatari pot oferi o alternativă la felul în care este percepută locuirea oraşului. De-a lungul a trei zile creăm o proiecţie pozitivă asupra potenţialului pe care îl au Bucureştiul, Timişoara sau Iaşiul, ca şi alte oraşe care se confruntă cu situaţii similare.
