Personal note

I shall reply comments as soon as 
– words will be so kind to come easier to me.

– I feel fancy to be less aggressive.

Meanwhile, enjoy my taciturnity.

The peace of the night.

Friday is Skyday

Momentariness: Nature has its own ways ...

Just a thought

In case I am not to wake up tomorrow,
I shall not complain,
let alone regret.

Fabulous February

Time to control the Actors

Anyone of the opinion the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) like the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the PROTECT IP Act (Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act, or PIPA is thought to protect intellectual properties and nothing but intellectual properties? The intellectual properties of artists? Of musicians? Of writers? Of philosophers even? Of ... politicians?
Kader Arif, the European Parliament's rapporteur for the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (Acta), resigned over the issue on Friday (January 27th).

He said he had witnessed "never-before-seen manoeuvres" by officials preparing the treaty.
More at the BBC.



And here the quintessence of what Monsieur Arif said, in English, French, German, Swedish.


The peace of the night.
