Acne Concealer Price In The Phils.

My kingdom is not of this world: I

why I say that my kingdom is not of this world. And for the record that have it worse physically disabled. When you go to a family member has to go in a wheelchair, you see them and you want them. It is almost impossible, you bet your life. Of those other than the kingdom! Neither of the children, they stole the streets, or the elderly, with its "lack of mobility" is a feat without crossing a traffic light turns red are halfway

My

kingdom is not of this world. No, I have no complex of Jesus Christ or anything like that. Simply, I am a pedestrian, I have legs to move around and not wheels motor. I know it's a daring, but it is.

I mean. My gaze wanders, like me, the sidewalks, pedestrian spaces, and that 15% of space that the car leaves us in urban areas. And that look, but dull and not clear, tell me facts that show that here, in my realm, do not paint anything. Absolutely nothing.

Firstly, new developments are generally characterized by having small sidewalks. This model prevents communication. If you go for such human sidewalks have to do it in single file. Do not fit two people at once. You should see the maneuvers that have to do that go with a baby carriage for these sidewalks. As if that was not enough, traffic signals, instead of placing them in the space of cars, placed on sidewalks for pedestrians. The stop is for them but we put it to us, the entry sign for them but are spoiling us. Cars rule. The city is designed for them, we are pure anecdote. They call the city park.

is not all in the car next to the steely, put the nose of the cars until the wheels hit the pavement, invading and at least half of it. Impossible to pass or, at best, you have to be trained to jump in and doing whatever watermark. In these cases do you have to maneuver if it matches one goes to one side and another in the opposite direction. I remember one day my father and I had to take a walk in the middle of a sidewalk because we could not pass. My father, looking at the cars, dropped in indignation, "They are more sacred than us."

There are more, too many experiences as pedestrian as to forget. In many new developments - Menudo inhuman urbanism in recent decades! - Have made the streets so narrow that they can park without obstructing the passage of other cars. The cars, which are very supportive of each other, parked on the sidewalks, leaving the free circulation. The car, of course, to throw us the sidewalks, and if you go on the road cars honk at you. We have no escape.

Where I live in Las Gabias, there are curious things, there are two crosswalks that go directly to stop the containers. Crosses and wham! with the trash. That is, the pedestrian crossing a sidewalk does not communicate with each other. Of course, the rest is for parking space. Also, there are places, such as the City Council that are not for use and enjoyment of citizens, they are just parking. All sacrificed to the car.

funny thing is that this racket, the prevailing philosophy and the language of blame for many problems for pedestrians. In a report of an association of motorists concluded that, in road accidents die many elderly people because they "do not have sufficient mobility." Dragged them out to read the conclusion that the fault of the elderly. And you thought ITV would be needed for them. Thus, when arthritis, arthritis and other diseases, rheumatism family make their appearance when the people have mobility defective, they are removed from the streets.

In another report in about a month ago we were told that 9 out of 10 pedestrians killed crossing is due to where they should not. Aha! Punished for doing wrong. Should clarify this a bit. You see, you just have your feet and your time. When we placed the roundabouts, pedestrians away from us places an outrage. We did the longer distances. If we add that there are areas between one light and one is far away, so we put the pedestrian difficult. Total, saying we should not cross anywhere, sometimes I do, but the city design is made exclusively for the car, never pedestrian. And above blame us for not paying homage to car god!

The pedestrian it is up in the field. When you go around those roads the car will fill you with flour and dust to the identity card. However I prefer. When asphalted roads, cars will fly. I usually say that, "paved road, walking expelled."

For these we have, so I say that my kingdom is not of this world. And for the record that have it worse physically disabled. When you go to a family member has to go in a wheelchair, you see them and you want them. It is almost impossible, you bet your life. Of those other than the kingdom! Neither of the children, they stole the streets, or the elderly, with its "lack of mobility" is a feat without crossing a traffic light turns red are halfway there. Have you noticed the few elders crossing traffic lights?

But we must get our realm, well, change the term, in our republic, I am not a monarchist, the pedestrian count in cities are not made outside us, not expel us, we do not invade. Sometimes I feel like myself in the middle of a street and say, "Today's my turn this space." For starters would have to change the mentality. Mentality that has wrought the car, all we see from their perspective. While the powers that are not pedestrian, while most citizens are not to serve pedestrians, the thing is difficult. Look for justifications, such as one with authority to which I said in midsummer, "Look the car over the sidewalk." him, very understanding, answered, "Is that there given the shade of the tree and so does not overheat." Poor little car! Justified, fully justified.

finish. We have to build cities and places to enjoy. Now that's sustainability, building to live, to meet, to communicate, not to speculate and park. Now that's sustainable, but no, this sustainability is measured by the containers that are per square meter. We have to build these cities, we could start by putting in the offices of technical, mayors, of which the urban design, photos of parents cart their children, physically disabled in wheelchairs, the elderly, children or just people who want to chat on the sidewalks without going in single file. So those responsible for planning every day would be the people to remember when designing the city, the territory, but the car have been expelled from it. The city belongs to us all, we must recover. Shall we? Should we start now?
