Olympics 2012: Simple flag error and North Korean footballers.

It’s Easter 2012

seasidepress — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 00:18:38 +0000

It’s Easter. Today so many years ago, three Jewish men were crucified. One was a rebel rouser and the two others were thieves. All three were Jewish. How did we go from there to the Holocaust and to 9/11?

Without war we would know no peace. The epitomy of irony.

PROLOGUE I'm an old man now, living alone with a dog. My active life is over, spent, and there is not much time left. So I am in a hurry. I'm not a writer, really, and have no literary pretensions. I lack the skill, imagination, and creativity to conjure tales out of my hat. This is the first, last, and only one ever to be produced by me, so I do hope it is worth telling and that someone will be out there, listening. Not possessing a writer's wit does not preclude credits in other fields, though. I am fairly well educated, intelligent, of the straight line, analytical kind. I am also well read, reasonably honest, at home in seven languages, and, until late in life, possessed of preposterous good looks, of the boyish, dark, romantic Gregory Peck type. Throughout my life, women have been attracted to me, often embarrassing my inborn shyness. If this sounds conceited or even narcissistic, let me add that while it is surely a pleasant advantage to be burdened with, still it is never more than a starter, balancing out its own effects by turning you careless and lazy.

Welcome to seasidepress.org

We are based near the beach and loving it. The beach is a great place to tackle serious subject matters. Some titles published through seasidepress tackle matters that relate directly or indirectly to the 1933-1945 Jewish Holocaust that took place in Europe, when Hitler ruled Nazi Germany.

Our new title An Eye for an Eye, is now available on Kindle. This true, super-paced short story takes place some forty years after World War II and the Holocaust, when the author (A. Venger, an alias) comes eye to eye with the person responsible for his parents’ deportation and death in concentration camp Sobibor. In this autobiographical drama, scores are settled, finally, but revenge proves to be bittersweet.

Downloads and copies of And No More Sorrow and Never Surrender! A true story are available on Amazon Kindle and Amazon books. Never Surrender! is a teacher classroom tool and read by students in middle-and high schools and colleges around the country. En verder geen leed and Stolpersteine: Ein persönliches Schicksal are also seasidepress titles.

Fifteen years of cosmic evolution and look what it got us. If not for our own meaningless self-destruction, war and natural disasters are devouring us like paper dolls.

For the tribes moving Westward, Europe lies in its way…

seasidepress — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 23:19:16 +0000

#Europe has always known tribes on the move all the way back before the Romans, before Christ. Because of its location, tiny Netherlands especially. They are situated in a Delta where three rivers converge, each making their way down the Alps mountains some 1000 miles away in what we call for the moment #@Switzerland. At the outer limit where the rivers enter the ocean, that’s where you’ll find the Netherlands or Holland as it’s known. The people living over there don’t think twice about living in the path of three rivers.

#@Netherlands is like Grand Central station. Everybody walks in and out. Manly man #@ Ghengis, The Romans, The Spanish, The French/Napoleon, the Nazis/Hitler. Even Ghengis was on his way.

No wonder #History was a total blur at school.

The Low Countries controlled by Spain (Spanish Netherlands, Dutch: Spaanse Nederlanden, 1579–1713), Austria (Austrian Netherlands, Dutch: Oostenrijkse Nederlanden, German: Österreichische Niederlande, 1713–94) and annexed by France (1794–1815). This region comprised most of modern Belgium (except for three Lower-Rhenish territories: the Prince-Bishopric of Liège, the Imperial Abbey of Stavelot-Malmedy and the County of Bouillon) and Luxembourg (including the homonymous present Belgian province), and in addition some parts of the Netherlands (namely the Duchy of Limburg now split in a Dutch and Belgian part) as well as, until 1678, most of the present Nord-Pas-de-Calais region in northern France. Unlike French Burgundy and the republican Northern Netherlands, these allodial states kept access to the Burgundian Circle of the Holy Roman Empire until its end.
