The BBC turned up to shoot some stills and video footage of "Steampunk Stylin' (a gathering and musical event) at The Way Station in Brooklyn, NY for a feature on Steampunk.
A large part of the BBC piece will be about our good friend Dr. Grymm.

Der Fabrikausbau schreitet zügig voran. Die ersten
Werkzeugmaschinen stehen in Betrieb. Der Betriebsleiter überwacht den Arbeitsfortschritt. Mit steifem Hut und weissem Kragen hebt er sich deutlich von den Arbeitern ab.
Das Fräsen der Wicklungsnuten am Rotor eines Turbogenerators von etwa 250 MW erforderte grösste Sorgfalt.

Got picked up at 6am by P’Lhong with P’Kit in tow. Heading to the airport and flying to Chiang Mai. Security was hilarious… I mean what security. Also, saw the queue for flights to India. There were a lot of flat screen tvs. Apparently it’s a thing. Something to do with the tax.
60 minute flight, and decent meal. Chocolate croissant, muffin, yogurt, coffee that didn’t suck too much. Tried to nap. We got picked up at the airport by our car rental company and they drove us into town.
While the boss peoples were finalizing the car rental I looked at tour packages for Chiang Mai. Kit and Lhong fly back to Bangkok tonight, but I am staying for the whole weekend to bum around.
Drove off to a few glass manufactures and played the “American Business Man” … fun times.
TMI bit coming up, feel free to not read…….. . . . So, I had to poop. We were at one of the glass manufactures, which is basically the owners home. I politely went to the rest room and low and behold, no TP. Of course I’ve run into this sitch in Thailand before, but I either held it or had some stashed on my person. This time was different. So, as much as I’d been meaning to try ‘it’, I hadn’t.
I am speaking of course of the “Bum Gun.” It’s a kind of hand held faucet trigger that is attached to the toilet. Sort of a hand held bidet. It was… refreshing… and wet.
Well. Check that off the to-do list.
Okay, where was I? After the meetings I got dropped off at my hotel and promptly headed to the Chiang Mai night market for shopping and food. Lovely, and cheaper than Bangkok.
Saw some lovely prostitutes on the walk back to my hotel. Got a banana roti. That’s not a euphemism. Fried dough wrapped around egg and banana, covered in chocolate sauce and sweetened condensed milk. YUMMY.
Met some nice Canadian backpackers. Had conversations. Walked the long way around the block back to my hotel. Was thinking of going back out to hit the bar and more people, but when I got to my hotel I sort of crashed. A little BBC World and I was out
6KH Radio was one of Britain’s early radio stations and the first to transmit within Hull and its environs. It was one of the relay stations set up by the BBC to increase coverage of its UK-wide broadcasting and was designated the ‘6KH’ call-sign representing Kingston-upon-Hull. 6KH Radio began broadcasting on 15th August 1924 using a 200W transmitter at a frequency of 896 kHz and just when commercial radio sets were becoming available to an eager public. 6KH Radio broadcasted a schedule of BBC programs as well as others of local interest, including a Children’s Hour. This is a membership for their Children's Hour Birthday Club.
In 1926, the BBC was nationalised and a change of policy saw the company reorganised into two new radio services, BBC National and BBC Regional. This was made possible with the development of more powerful transmitters able to broadcast over longer distances. This ensured the demise of many relay stations, including 6KH Radio which ceased transmitting on the 31st October 1928.
As standard practise for radio stations and newspapers of the time, each had their own slots for children’s programmes with dedicated clubs that issued welcome packs to new members which would have included their membership badge, such as this one. 6KH Radio also transmitted a weekly 30-minute programme to regional schools each Friday afternoon.
In 1923, the BBC formed Radio Circles, which were clubs for listeners to the Children's Hour programmes. Initially, these were based on local stations such as Manchester (2ZY), Nottingham (5NH), Sheffield (6FL), Stoke on Trent (6ST), Liverpool (6LV), Hull (6KH), etc and each of these stations issued their own distinct membership badge. With the nationalisation of radio under the BBC in 1926 and the developments of better transmitting technology, the local stations had been reorganised into regional ones by 1928. The Radio Circle clubs had also been reorganised and thererafter, each issued a standard badge showing the iconic sunburst, rabbit and cockerel, differentiated only by a bar attached to the badge showing the region's name. The Radio Circle clubs were discontinued by the BBC making their final birthday request broadcast on the 31st December 1933. The BBC stated costs as being the main factor for their decision to end the Childen's Hour Radio Circles.

For years I've gotten a laugh or two out of the BBC online news website. Their choices of graphics and taglines or headlines related to them tend to be utterly hilarious.
The BBC Dig In Roadshow came to Millenium Square Leeds on Friday and Saturday 14/15 August 2009 as part of a campaign to encourage people to grow their own vegetables.
The vehicle used for the roadshow is a Ford Transit 100 T300S (Mark 7) based on an ice-cream van body.
