Did you say... Moar at La Loc ?
Yes, I did say Moar's back at La Locandiera on Sunday 16th...
with Fono and Daveed.
- Did you ask who's that guy ?
- You just read Groove's Interview...
or ask Moar... or YouVox Urban... or NovaPlanet.

Let's Fractalize Now

Legendary Camel Spider !
well, today is 'Spider Day' because I've just found this...
As we just can't talk on and again about presidential love stories, fractals, UFOs, markets
evolution, mafiosi under arrest, Berlusco's devotion to money, hip hop, chaos theory, sacred
geometry, nightclubbers, popes, dahus, sashimis, or american elections... let's dedicate a few
line to these God's solifugae creatures...
They actually aren't spiders at all, they're solifugae. Along with spiders, they are members
of the class Arachnida and are called 'camel spiders' because they live in the desert. They
are somewhat of an urban legend and currently one of the most searched items on the
internet.
The camel spider stories began to spread during the 1990-91 Gulf War. Now, with the continued presence of U.S. forces in the Middle East, the stories are becoming legendary but most of them are completely untrue. These creatures are (usually) not dangerous to humans... (more)... except for their bites - I dare to say !
(by exspree).
A Matt Walker BBC article [on July 2010] explains, in a video, their hunting technique :
"Camel spiders have evolved a unique way to capture their insect prey."

A Lighthouse in my Former Fief !
And nobody told G@tto !
I lived in this area for more than ten years and they just waited I was gone
to build this !
A brilliant idea for signalling a fish market so well hidden behind this concrete
wall that It took me a while to discover it, quite by chance.
A few weeks ago I fell on this and this in Eric's "Paris Daily Photo" so I just waited
for an occasion to return in my ancient fief and shoot this stunning tower.
Thank you Eric !
