The Carpathian Mountains or Carpathians are a range of mountains forming an arc roughly 1,500 km (932 mi) long across Central Europe, making them the second-longest mountain range in Europe (after the Scandinavian Mountains, 1,700 km (1,056 mi)). They provide the habitat for the largest European populations of brown bears, wolves, chamois and lynxes, with the highest concentration in Romania, as well as over one third of all European plant species. The Carpathians and their foothills also have many thermal and mineral waters, with Romania having one-third of the European total. Romania is likewise home to the largest surface of virgin forests in Europe (excluding Russia), totaling 250,000 hectares (65%), most of them in the Carpathians, with the Southern Carpathians constituting Europe’s largest unfragmented forested area.
The Carpathians consist of a chain of mountain ranges that stretch in an arc from the Czech Republic (3%) in the northwest through Slovakia (17%), Poland (10%), Hungary (4%) and Ukraine (11%) to Romania (53%) in the east and on to the Iron Gates on the River Danube between Romania and Serbia (2%) in the south. The highest range within the Carpathians is the Tatras, on the border of Slovakia and Poland, where the highest peaks exceed 2,600 m (8,530 ft). The second-highest range is the Southern Carpathians in Romania, where the highest peaks exceed 2,500 m (8,202 ft).
The Carpathians is the last novel by New Zealand writer Janet Frame, published in 1988 and awarded that year's Commonwealth Writers' Prize.
In The Carpathians we are presented with a topsy-turvy world.
The protagonist, Mattina Brecon, is a wealthy New Yorker whose husband, Jake, is a novelist struggling to follow-up the success of his smash-hit debut. Mattina, upon hearing the legend of the Memory Flower, decides to fly to New Zealand to visit a rural town, Puamahara, where the magical flower, said to release the memories of the land, linking them with the future, is rumoured to grow. Once there, Mattina rents a house on Kowhai Street, where, posing as a novelist, she sets out to record the lives of her new antipodean neighbours. As she discovers, however, the locals are also ‘impostors’, brought into existence by the memory of another time and place. Eventually, the town slowly begins to resemble a cemetery, silent and dead still. As Mattina begins to unravel the secrets of Kowhai Street she discovers, in her own bedroom a mysterious presence. The novel is hijacked by one of Mattina's new neighbours who describes herself as an imposter novelist, as the New Yorker gradually loses her grip on time and place.
A documentary film is a nonfictional motion picture intended to document some aspect of reality, primarily for the purposes of instruction or maintaining a historical record. Such films were originally shot on film stock—the only medium available—but now include video and digital productions that can be either direct-to-video, made into a TV show or released for screening in cinemas. "Documentary" has been described as a "filmmaking practice, a cinematic tradition, and mode of audience reception" that is continually evolving and is without clear boundaries.
In popular myth, the word documentary was coined by Scottish documentarian John Grierson in his review of Robert Flaherty's film Moana (1926), published in the New York Sun on 8 February 1926, written by "The Moviegoer" (a pen name for Grierson).
Grierson's principles of documentary were that cinema's potential for observing life could be exploited in a new art form; that the "original" actor and "original" scene are better guides than their fiction counterparts to interpreting the modern world; and that materials "thus taken from the raw" can be more real than the acted article. In this regard, Grierson's definition of documentary as "creative treatment of actuality" has gained some acceptance, with this position at variance with Soviet film-maker Dziga Vertov's provocation to present "life as it is" (that is, life filmed surreptitiously) and "life caught unawares" (life provoked or surprised by the camera).

From the album, Nothing To Lose Lyrics: Wipe those tears from your fucking face This isn't another song filled with lies told to my face I wish I never loved you What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger And I will never die from a broken heart When everything is all said and done You'll be the one who comes back to me Well fuck that, you turned your back on me So fuck you, I'm moving on.

Underneath the whip to soothe the beast Burn a candle from my soul, for I will never do the same. Cause I see beauty in another things and that is light is the wilderness alone. Kneel before me and shine my shoes. I give you much but you want more I am the long arm of unforgivingness. Beholder of all chains. This tool of great destruction. This life of feces and filth.

Carpathian was a hardcore band from Australia. This is from their album "Carpathian" I want to know who's for real All this talk of having my back has been overdone I have no compassion for this fucking trend Fuck your 'family' fuck your 'friends' get down Don't have my fucking back Your days have finally come to an end You pick up pieces of broken hearts That your hands could never mend You turned your back when things got rough And the 'tough' you've been trying to push Has lost it's touch Now you've opened up and Your true colours have shown Don't have my back
From the album Nothing To Lose, aussie hardcore at its best Lyrics: I can't escape the tension in this place it's never changed Where's the unity when new faces aren't welcome in this family Putting down those who are full of heart Because they weren't there at the start Well now I'm calling you out you fucking fake because There's more than holding heads up high at stake So what the fuck have you got when You're dropping my name like it's so damn hot? Talk and talk and talk again about how much better it was back then Well get out Fighting is never worth it unless something worth's dying for Now your asking me what I fucking stand for? Take your folded arms and drive them through your jaded heart You were nothing then and your nothing now Come on kid this ain't 84,...
Plimbare pe acoperisul lumii bucovinice The Rarau Mountains are part of the Eastern Carpathians and offer fantastic hiking opportunities. The region’s main base for hikers is Cabana Rarau, located at an elevation of 1536 meters, near the town of Campulung Moldovenesc. There’s a small restaurant and provisions shop there too. Enter Campulung Moldovenesc from the east, look out for the sign on the left (‘Cabana Rarau 14km’) and you’re on your way. Do not attempt to drive this route in bad weather unless you have a 4WD. Indeed, even in good weather, it’s no treat; the road is narrow and extremely pot-holed and rocky in places. Hiking takes three to four hours (follow the red circles). A second, good and new modernized road (County road 175B, Pojorata-Rarau, 14 Km) leads up to the cabana from ...

Take a tour of Peles Castle in Romania -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats. Romania is a country of many castles, one of the most beautiful being the Peles Castle. The German neo-Renaissance design of the castle gives it a very elegant appearance. The construction took two architects 41 years, between 1873 and 1914, to complete. The castle was home to King Carol I, Queen Elizabeth, and then their son, Carol II. A portion of Peles Castle is open to visitors, including the museum in the basement. Because of its location in the Carpathian Mountains, the surrounding countryside is absolutely stunning.

This is the point where we ask ourselves
"Are these our lives or are we more?"
Fuck standing on a ship we're sinking
The tide beats incessantly dragging you down
Bust!
I only saw what I wanted to see
I only heard what I wanted to hear
This is the End of the World
With open arms embrace the cold
With open hearts embrace this cold
This is the End of the World
Submerge breathless and choke on blackened air
Piece me together with shards of heartless despair
Never forget the days that passed the time we shared
Meant everything although I wasn't fucking there
Deal with it
Rock 'n Roll
And I will never forget about you
