In today's community of Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans, one in five suffer from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or major depression. Brian Scott Ostrom is one of them. After serving four years as a reconnaissance marine and deploying twice to Iraq, Scott, now 27, returned home to the U.S. with a severe case of PTSD. "The most important part of my life already happened. The most devastating. The chance to come home in a box. Nothing is ever going to compare to what I've done, so I'm struggling to be at peace with that," Scott said. He attributes his PTSD to his second deployment to Iraq, where he served seven months in Fallujah with the 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion. "It was the most brutal time of my life," he said. "I didn't realize it because I was living it. It was a part of me." Since his discharge, Scott has struggled with daily life, from finding and keeping employment to maintaining healthy relationships. But most of all, he's struggled to overcome his brutal and haunting memories of Iraq. Nearly five years later, Scott remains conflicted by the war. Though he is proud of his service and cares greatly for his fellow Marines, he still carries guilt for things he did and didn't do fighting a war he no longer believes in.

Nous vous parlions il y a deux semaines de l’initiatives de deux jeunes journalistes qui réalisent un webdocumentaire sur les “monsieur tout le monde parisiens” (interview à venir bientôt sur le site). C’est au tour du New-York Times de publier un joli webdocumentaire (commencée il y a tout de même deux ans) décrivant les “gens ordinaires qui racontent des histoires extraordinaires” : la mère adolescente, la paparazzi, le vétéran d’Irak, le juré qui dit 200 fois par jour “bonjour”… Le tout est composé de 54 petits diaporamas sonores en noir et blanc, très bien travaillés que vous pouvez regarder dans l’ordre que vous voulez (interactivité oblige…).

A few people have been asking me how the LENS Blog on The New York Times site came to be and what software it was built on. I thought I’d shed a little light on the development process and answer some of these questions.

20 ans après la chute du mur de Berlin... 10 histoires de murs en friche dans les pays de l'Union européenne qui appartenaient au bloc de l'Est. 10 villes privilégiées par les anciens régimes et qui ont chuté avec le mur. Certaines ont déjà bien pansé leurs plaies, d'autres non. Des récits d'hommes et de femmes loin du mur... Voyage en roues libres pour franchir les murs derrière le rideau de rouille, 11000 km en camping-car. Défrichages en textes, photos et musique: Leipzig, Daugavpils, Sillamae, Visaginas, Wlodawa, Ostrava, Kosice, Miskolc, Campulung, Pernik. Défrichages sonores de la mémoire d'Européens de l'Est qui ont vécu et travaillé dans et près de ces usines ou bâtiments publics aujourd'hui à l'abandon.
