Activities
- Bertrand PICCARD, a writer to a famous family and one of his book that I read 1 - Who is this man? This man is Bertrand PICCARD. He was born in 1958 in Lausanne. This is a doctor, psychanalist and specialist on hypnosis. 2 - Do you know any person of his family? His father: Jacques PICCARD. He builds with his father the bathyscaphe Trieste. In 1960, he explored the "Mariana trench". This valley in deep sea is in south of Japan. The depth is of 11500 m. His grandfather: Auguste PICCARD went to the stratosphere (15700 m) in 1931. Bertrand is equally a pioneer! As Jules Verne, he uses a hot-air balloon "Breitling Orbiter III". He was the first with his team to travel around the world without stop (halt) in 1999. This is a travel of 19 days and from 45 700 km. Another action of this brave man in 2003: Bertrand travel in “Solar Impulse”, around the world in solar plane. 3 - Bertrand the writer! Bertrand is francophone and wrote 7 books around his exploits (balloon and solar plane). The name of the 8th book is : "Changer altitude, quelques solutions pour mieux vivre sa vie" You can translate by: "Change of altitude, many solutions to a better life" (book of 300 pages). 4 - The book: Bertrand used his personal experience. I summarized it in these phrases: - We are prisoner of our personal thinking - We can live rare or difficult situations. For example: illness or other accidents of the life. - We are going in a time of crisis (uncomfortable situations). He says that in chinese, crisis can tell 2 ideas: - Risk and danger (emergency) - Opportunity to build your life differently (to take another way). You can catch the opportunities of the moment. Bertrand use an image that I please to relate: Take opportunities, this is to change altitude in a hot air balloon. So, you change the direction of you destiny. Conclusion: I conclude my presentation to say that you’re live in a permanent circle of change. It is a good thing to prepare my spirit to the changes of directions who come all along my live.
March 13, 201620 - The "cirque du soleil" This a entertainment company who began in Canada since thirty two years old. It was found by Guy LALIBERTE in 1984. Now, five thousands persons work for this firm around the world. Acrobatics (physical exploit) compose the entertainments. However, we have no animals as circus. So many divertissements were invented. We have : - Round (Tour) in circus (tent) Ex: ALEGRIA -> Once open a time a land without a king and the desire of power. - Round (Tour) in Arena (a spectacle place) : Ex: DELIRIUM -> This is the history of Bill. He was a citizen who was lost in his habits. - Show fixed and permanent in theatre : Ex: Mystère à l'hôtel -> This is the universe story across many mythologies. Although these spectacles have always a large success, the company works on two other directions. - Music's product spectacles. - Series and films. The goal is to protect the original music and choreograph compositions that are presents in the differents entertainments. I conclude my presentation to say that I discover theses Canadian spectacles with pleasure. I would like to be present in one of these amazing spectacles if possible.
February 28, 201610 - A strange black and white construction on the ground I took many photos near my home this week-end. I would like to choose only two of them to write my little history. Now I propose to read that : On the first one (left side) : On foreground, we have a yellow and black iron thing. At the top, two triangles are opposites. It's locate between a tree and a plant. On the second plan, we can see the ferry terminal, a oldest building from 1933. The sky is blue with many clouds. On the second one (right side) : A second picture with similar black and yellow construction. Look at the top of this. We have two black triangles which both turn to the sky. In closing, these two systems are used to indicate big undersea stones. The different colours black and white and the position of the triangles give the position of the stone for sailors.
November 16, 201510 - Walking near the sea this Sunday. Last Sunday, I walked near the sea. I can see the land cover the water. Soon, the future factory Alstom will built on this place. Workers will make wind pumps (power). Yesterday, there was just a platform with his yellow hydraulic system. This bigger machine dug all the day. It was the moment to take a photo.
