Tools. Gfen.langues. A mixtape love letter to the parks that birthed hip hop. Hip hop was born in an apartment building in the Bronx, but it grew up in New York City’s parks. In the 1970s and ’80s, DJs would steal electricity from street lamps to power their speakers, plug in two turntables and a microphone, and throw a jam. Amateur rappers gathered for freestyle sessions in parks, most famously Manhattan’s Union Square. The essence of living in a dense urban area is trading private space for public space. City-dwellers don’t have sprawling suburban lawns, or often even a backyard. But they do have access to great public and semi-public places: sidewalks, stoops, and, most importantly, parks. So it’s natural that an intensely urban art form such as hip hop was nurtured in the parks. Here is my handpicked mixtape of great rap songs that celebrate the role of parks in city life. 1. 2.

Nelson Mandela Biography - Birthday, Facts, Life Story, Quotes, Timeline, Video. Nelson Mandela became the first black president of South Africa in 1994, serving until 1999. A symbol of global peacemaking, he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. Synopsis Nelson Mandela was born on July 18, 1918, in Mvezo, Transkei, South Africa. Becoming actively involved in the anti-apartheid movement in his 20s, Mandela joined the African National Congress in 1942. For 20 years, he directed a campaign of peaceful, nonviolent defiance against the South African government and its racist policies. Early Life Nelson Mandela was born Rolihlahla Mandela on July 18, 1918, in the tiny village of Mvezo, on the banks of the Mbashe River in Transkei, South Africa.

Nelson Mandela's father, who was destined to be a chief, served as a counselor to tribal chiefs for several years, but lost both his title and fortune over a dispute with the local colonial magistrate. At the suggestion of one of his father's friends, Mandela was baptized in the Methodist Church. Mandela's Imprisonment In Recent Years. Latest news, sport and comment from the Guardian. Mandela memorial sign language interpreter 'was making it up' | Society. The translation of speeches into sign language at Nelson Mandela's memorial service was seen as a sign of inclusiveness, but it appears the sign language interpreter was a fake, according to several expert organisations. Braam Jordaan, a deaf South African and board member of the World Deaf Federation, said the interpreter was making up signs as he went along. "The structure of his hand, facial expressions and the body movements did not follow what the speaker was saying," Jordaan said.

The man who signed for a section of the ceremony, including Barack Obama's speech, was simply making up his own signs, he said. "I was really upset and humiliated," Jordaan told the SBS news website. "He made up his own signs. What happened at the memorial service is truly disgraceful thing to see – it should not happen at all. Members of South Africa's deaf community have previously raised concerns about the interpreter, who has been used at other African National Congress events. Create A Face Online!

Google Expands Underwater Street View To New Locations.

Google today added a couple of new locations to its underwater Street View imagery collection, including a number spots around Monaco, Cancun and Isla Mujeres. Google unveiled underwater Street View back in 2012 and has been expanding it (very) slowly ever since. The company has partnered with the Catalin Seaview Survey on this project and uses a number of special underwater cameras to capture the panoramic images its uses for this project.

By last summer, the collection featured six locations, including reefs around Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, the Philippines and Hawaii. It also now features locations off the coast of Bermuda, though one of the more ambitious projects for Street View was surely the addition of the Galapagos Islands last May. During a presentation at its I/O developer conference last year, Google explained that the divers typically cover about 2 kilometers and take between 3,000 and 4,000 images per dive during their expeditions.

Un nouveau site pour apprendre les langues ensemble. Apprendre une langue étrangère demande un effort de longue haleine, décourageant quand on se lance dans l'apprentissage en solitaire. Heureusement, sur Internet se croisent des personnes parlant toutes sortes de langues et prêtes à aider ceux qui commencent. Pourquoi ne pas profiter de cette potentiel afin que tous se soutiennent dans l'acquisition de langues étrangères? C'est ce que veut faire Wolty, un site créé par deux étudiants espagnols de l'ENSEIRB-MATMECA de Bordeaux. Pendant leur formation, les jeunes gens devaient concevoir une start-up. L'usager qui s'inscrit sur le site indique donc sa langue maternelle et les autres langages qu'il connaît, est en train d'apprendre ou veut apprendre.

Évidemment, ces annotations seront, hormis si l'utilisateur en décide autrement, publiques et commentées par d'autres usagers qui pourront ajouter leur grain de sel. L'idée des cartes de révision est un autre avantage de Wolty. Illustration : Rudie Strummer, shutterstock Référence :
