the archives of earth (Les archives de la Terre

Image by patrice-photographiste (OFF - back on the road)
(English follow)
Si les archives de la terre pouvaient nous apprendre quelque chose, elles nous enseigneraient que l’échelle humaine du temps, toujours de plus en plus courte, doit être repensée, face à la rapidité des transformations que nous faisons subir à notre planète.
« Nous devons être en mesure de penser le présent en fonction de ce qui sera transmis aux citoyens de la planète 10,000 années dans le futur.» (Anthony Sorgi about « Clock of the long Now »)

If the archives of the Earth could teel us something, they would teach us that the human scale of time, always shorter and shorter, should be reconsidered, given the rapid changes that our actions inflict on our planet. So...« we need to be able to think about the present in terms of something that can passed on to the citizens of the planet 10,000 years in the future. (Anthony Sorgi about « Clock of the long Now »)

Constitution in the National Archives

Image by Mr. T in DC
The preamble and beginning of the original Constitution, in the rotunda of the National Archives, in Washington, DC. Photographs in the rotunda of the National Archives are no longer permitted, so I'm glad I got this shot while I had the chance.

Heroes learning from heroes: Local fire departments develop military search-and-rescue team [Image 1 of 5]

Image by DVIDSHUB
Soldiers from the 887th Engineer Battalion, out of Augusta, Ga., gather wood to practice working with handheld power tools on a 10,000 square-foot rubble pile training site, Aug. 31, in Raleigh, N.C. The soldiers are part of a search and rescue unit and were working side by side with civilian firefighters from Raleigh, Fayetteville and Cary, N.C., as a part of a Vigilant Guard training exercise. The National Guard and civilian first responders worked together to help each other, learning from the others' techniques. The site the soldiers worked on allowed them to work on most aspects of search and rescue.
