Stufen


von Hermann Hesse, Mai 1941

Wie jede Blüte welkt und jede Jugend
Dem Alter weicht, blüht jede Lebensstufe,
Blüht jede Weisheit auch und jede Tugend
Zu ihrer Zeit und darf nicht ewig dauern.
Es muß das Herz bei jedem Lebensrufe
Bereit zum Abschied sein und Neubeginne,
Um sich in Tapferkeit und ohne Trauern
In andre, neue Bindungen zu geben.
Und jedem Anfang wohnt ein Zauber inne,
Der uns beschützt und der uns hilft, zu leben.

Wir sollen heiter Raum um Raum durchschreiten,
An keinem wie an einer Heimat hängen,
Der Weltgeist will nicht fesseln uns und engen,
Er will uns Stuf‘ um Stufe heben, weiten.
Kaum sind wir heimisch einem Lebenskreise
Und traulich eingewohnt, so droht Erschlaffen,
Nur wer bereit zu Aufbruch ist und Reise,
Mag lähmender Gewöhnung sich entraffen.

Es wird vielleicht auch noch die Todesstunde
Uns neuen Räumen jung entgegen senden,
Des Lebens Ruf an uns wird niemals enden…
Wohlan denn, Herz, nimm Abschied und gesunde!
(4. Mai 1941)

ZZ Top - Viva Las Vegas (Official Music Video)


Y'all still want me to come with you?

Bright light city gonna set my soul, gonna set my soul on fire
There's a whole lot of money that's ready to burn
So get those stakes up high
There's a thousand pretty women just a-waitin' out there
And they're all livin' devil-may-care
I'm just the devil with a love to spare

Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas

I know
Ah, thank-ya very much, baby

And how I wish that there were more
Than 24 hours in the day
But even if there were 40 more
I wouldn't sleep a minute away
Oh, there's blackjack and poker and a roulette wheel
A fortune won and lost on every deal
All you need's a strong heart and nerves of steel

Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas

Viva Las Vegas with your neon flashin'
And your one-armed bandits crashin'
All those hopes down the drain
Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime
Turn the night into daytime
If you see it once, you'll never come home again

I'm gonna keep on the run
I'm gonna have me some fun
If it costs me my very last dime
If I wind up broke
Then I'll always remember
That I had a swingin' time
I'm gonna give it everything I've got
Lady Luck, please let the dice stay hot
Let me shoot a seven with every shot

Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva, Viva

🇩🇪Germany's Thyssenkrupp Breakup Underway

German industrial giant Thyssenkrupp plans to become a financial holding, enabling major sell-offs.

— HQ to shrink from 500 to 100 staff.
— 1,000 admin jobs to be cut.
— Full exit from steel trading (€12.1B revenue, 16,000 jobs).
— Auto supply units may be sold or shut.

“Only a shell will remain at best”, said a manager.

Energy costs … are killing Germany & its businesses.

ZZ Top - Gimme All Your Lovin' (Live)


I got to have a shot
'Cause what you got is, oh, so sweet
You got to make it hot
Like a boomerang I need a repeat

Gimme all your lovin'
All your hugs and kisses too

Gimme all your lovin'
Don't let up until we're through

You got to whip it up
And hit me like a ton of lead
If I blow my top
Will you let it go to your head?

Gimme all your lovin'
All your hugs and kisses too
Gimme all your lovin'
Don't let up until we're through

You got to move it up
And use it like a screwball would
You got to pack it up
Work it like a new boy should

Gimme all your lovin'
All your hugs and kisses too

Gimme all your lovin'
Don't let up until we're through

Aerosmith - Janie's Got A Gun


Aerosmith's "Janie's Got A Gun" is a powerful rock ballad that addresses serious themes of abuse and revenge. Released in the late 1980s, the song showcases the band's signature sound, combining emotive lyrics with a compelling melody. Its impactful message and memorable chorus have made it a staple in Aerosmith's discography.

Lyrics:
Lyric:
Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum, dum, dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun

What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They said when Janie was arrested
They found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin', now that Janie's got a gun
She ain't never gonna be the same

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run

Tell me now it's untrue, what did her daddy do?
He jacked a little bitty baby, the man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under the lightning and
The thunder knew that someone had to stop the rain

Run away, run away from the pain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run

What did her daddy do?
It's Janie's last I.O.U
She had to take him down easy and put a bullet in his brain
She said, "'Cause nobody believes me, the man was such a sleaze"
He ain't never gonna be the same

Run away, run away from the pain yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Everybody is on the run

Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Because Janie's got a gun

Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Janie's got a gun

Janie's got a gun

And now we wait. I am doing these ribs a lot differently than I usually grill ribs, I am setting up the grill as a smoker, cooking at around 270F, and not wrapping and saucing them until the final third of the cooking time.

Hopefully this will work well.

The mesquite chips I'm using in the smoke box smell AMAZING by the way. This grill makes for a remarkably good smoker.

ENCORE UNE LOI DE MERDE - Simplification de l'implantation de data centers


Du 8 au 11 avril, les député·es examineront en séance publique le projet de loi de « simplification de la vie économique ». Cette loi fourre-tout, conçue sur mesure pour répondre aux demandes des industriels, contient notamment un article 15 qui permettrait à l’État d’imposer la construction d’immenses data centers aux collectivités locales et à la population.

Pour ne pas laisser les multinationales de la tech s’allier au gouvernement français pour alimenter cette fuite en avant délétère et écocide, La Quadrature du Net et le collectif Le Nuage était sous nos pieds, en lien avec les membres de la coalition Hiatus, appellent à la suppression de l'article 15 et à l’adoption d’un moratoire sur la construction des grands entrepôts à serveurs !

Retrouvez la page web de notre campagne de mobilisation pour lutter contre l'article 15 du projet de loi « simplification » et interpeller les élu⋅es : laquadrature.net/moratoire-dat…

"C’est une petite révolution de l’autre côté des Pyrénées : en Espagne, le gouvernement envisage de faire payer beaucoup + cher les infractions routières... aux automobilistes les + aisés. Fini le ticket à 100 € indolore pour ceux qui gagnent 10 fois + que le salaire moyen ! Inspirée du modèle suisse, cette réforme vise à rendre les sanctions + justes, en les adaptant aux revenus de chacun. Une manière de lutter contre une injustice trop souvent ignorée : la loi est la même pour tous, mais son poids, lui, dépend de votre fiche de paie."

En voilà une idée qu'elle est bonne !
