Colmar is a medieval city in the central Alsace at the east of France near Germany. It is a very touristic city. You can walk in the city center who has large zone of pedestrian street only. Traditionaly alsacian houses were white but recently they start to color them in green, dark red and flashy color.
Timber-framed houses, generally characterized by flat clay tiles and half-timbered building fronts, are found in both the cities and the countryside. Elegant bourgeois homes, their façades divided by ornamental banding, have many bay windows. Alsace, a region long accustomed to working with stone and wrought iron, also features fine examples of Romanesque, Gothic and Vaubanesque architecture. Villages typically feature a central square with a water fountain or a defensive wall and gate.
Do you know that the Statue of Liberty was offered by Bartoldy who was from Colmar to the United States ? You can see a little copy of this statue in rememberance of this gift.
The cold war was the nuclear war that never happend between USA and Soviet Union. It ends in 1990 with the end of Soviet Union. But today it seems to come back.
I started to read that article. It looks like kind of russian propagande. A quick whois at the owner of the domain name strategic-culture.org show me that it belong to someone in Russia.
This article was kind of fearing. For example on the second paragraph we can read “Hillary Clinton clearly hated Russians and wanted to start a war against Russia ”
My first reaction reading this long text is that I should check if it is real or exagerated or not but I am not really journalist. Why sundently we are talking about war. When I was a child the world was divided in 2 zones. West and East (UDRSS) and the enemy was soviet. When I was in army our instructor always explain as example the enemy was soviet. Then few yeat later the wall of Berlin fall down and the world changed. No fear to receive a bomb from the east. (btw I never believe that it could happend) It was possible to go to east Germany, Slovakia etc…
I thought that the cold war was behind and reading your text apparently it is coming back. I think that Russians see americans as a danger but I never see as a real danger. I don’t believe.
It is interesting to see the perspective on the russian media and the western media talk about. On the russian media they fear that NATO attack russia. On the western media, they fear that Russia attack ex sovietic countries like baltic counties or even Ukraine.
On the russian mediy the news communicate a real fear of war. On the western media that fear is not as height.

No need to understand russian, you just clic to a radio and you listen you can change when you want. We can easily see that there is a huge dynamism of creation concerning russian christian music.
Daughter Farmer and Katya Gavrilova – Spun around with snow
Мы никогда не знаем, что произойдет с нами в следующую секунду. Завтрашний день нам не принадлежит.
Но мы в любую минуту можем обратиться в молитве к нашему Отцу Небесному, Который всегда слышит и ждет нас. Молитва имеет огромную силу.
Мы можем быть уверены в Его любви к нам, несмотря на любые обстоятельства.
We never know what will happen to us in the next second. Tomorrow does not belong to us.
But we can at any moment turn to our Heavenly Father in prayer, who always hears and waits for us. Prayer has tremendous power.
We can be sure of His love for us, in spite of any circumstances.
This year we have not had lot of snow. This only now end of february and begining of march that we have few days of cold and snow. Today a lot of snow has fallen. When I came home after the working day, I stoped and took that photo. The sun decided to shine. Snow with sun has something brilliant.
The next photo is the first Alps from Fribourg Canton.
Few days ago, I visited my father at hospital. Maybe it was the last time I saw him. And at the way back, decided to take the tunnel to cross Vosges mountain instead of the smal road pass.
I didn’t realised that I drove too fast 85 instead of 70. There was no other cars, no Trucks and the road was straight. Sundenly a flash. I was driving a car with a swiss number in France. Maybe I will not receive the fine.
Today I receive it. I have to pay 45€ if I don’t pay immediatly that will be 135€.

Billy Graham reached more than 200 million through his appearances and millions more through his pioneering use of television and radio.
More than anyone else, Graham built evangelicalism into a force that rivaled liberal Protestantism and Roman Catholicism in the United States. His leadership summits and crusades in more than 185 countries and territories forged powerful global links among conservative Christians, and threw a lifeline to believers in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc. Dubbed « America’s pastor, » he was a confidant to U.S. presidents.
Américan evangelist Billy Graham, who counseled presidents and preached to millions across the world from his native North Carolina to communist North Korea during his 70 years in the pulpit, died on Wednesday at the age of 99, a spokesman said.
He died at 8am EST (1pm GMT) at his home in Montreat, North Carolina, according to Jeremy Blume, a spokesman for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.
According to his ministry, he preached to more people than anyone else in history, reaching hundreds of millions of people either in person or via TV and satellite links. He was famed for his style of roaming the stage and hoisting a Bible as he declared Jesus Christ to be the only solution to humanity’s problems.
Mr Graham, nicknamed God’s Machine Gun, became the de facto White House chaplain to several US presidents, most famously Richard Nixon. He also met with scores of world leaders and was the first noted evangelist to take his message behind the Iron Curtain.
Graham used the power of new technologies, like radio and television, to spread his message of personal salvation to an estimated 215 million people globally, while simultaneously reflecting on technology’s limitations. Reciting the story of King David to audiences at TED1998, “David found that there were many problems that technology could not solve. There were many problems still left. And they’re still with us, and you haven’t solved them, and I haven’t heard anybody here speak to that,” he said, referring to human evil, suffering, and death. To Graham, the answer to these problems was to be found in God. Even after his death, through the work of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, led by his son Franklin, his message of personal salvation will live on. (Watch Graham’s TED Talk)
