Piaţa Mică was called Circulus Parvus in documents and was located on the surface of the second belt of fortifications of the city.
The square is divided into two distinct parts by Ocnei Street, which descends under the Bridge of Lies towards the Lower Town.
The northern and eastern sides of the square follow the contour of the second belt of fortifications, presenting a circular shape. The buildings on the northern side of Ocnei Street have a concave shape and follow the contour of the first belt of fortifications, separating Piaţa Mică from Piaţa Huet.
The buildings in the Small Square (with one exception) do not have the massive, vaulted portal characteristic of the Big Square or Bălcescu Street.
The characteristic of the houses in the Small Square is the loggia on the ground floor, vaulted and semi-open to the square, with semicircular arches supported by porticos. The buildings in the Small Square housed craft workshops and in these spaces the goods were displayed. Starting with the mid-19th century, the arches began to be built.
In the southeast, the square received its current appearance only in the 18th century, when, on the site of the tailors' guild house, the Roman Catholic church and parish house were built (1726-1733).
Next to the Parish House there was a wheeled fountain, surrounded by a metal fence. Later it was transformed into a fountain with a pump, and in the mid-19th century it was abandoned and covered with oak cisterns.
The square preserves, with few changes, its appearance from the 15th and 16th centuries, all the buildings being historical monuments, distinguishing both the fortification elements, the public buildings and the residential houses.
The buildings are tall and feature those lenticular skylights known as the ‘eyes of Sibiu’. ''

Aangezien ik begrepen had dat het vuilvervoer binnenkort weg gaat van het spoor en het nu weer langer licht is, maar naar Apeldoorn gegaan om daar bij de aansluitng de vuiltrein vast te leggen.
Hier zien we de 203 160 na het terugsteken vertrekken richting het station van Apeldoorn.
Gisteravond voor de verandering maar weer eens naar Apeldoorn geweest voor de vuiltrein. Het goede nieuws is dat het vervoer niet stopt, maar de tijden zijn nog lang niet bekend. Dus nu het nog afgevoerd wordt naar Wijster, nu de trein nog in het licht rijdt. Wel moest er aardig lang gewacht worden, de trein was ongeveer drie kwartier te laat.
Nadat de losse loc heen was gegaan, kwam een klein half uur de trein terug. Met de machinist voorop en de oranje 220 als trekkracht, rijdt de trein langs het Kanaal-Zuid.

From my collection
The name is derived from medieval Latin word aequator, in the phrase circulus aequator diei et noctis, meaning ‘circle equalizing day and night’, from the Latin word aequare meaning ‘make equal’.

Mysteries from Middle Earth:
The idea of standing with one foot in each hemisphere is an intriguing one, and the closer you get to the equator, the more you hear about the equator’s mysterious energy. But what is fact and what is fiction?
There’s no point in starting softly, so let’s debunk the biggest myth first: La Mitad del Mundo is not on the equator – but it’s close. Global Positioning System (GPS) devices show that it’s only about 240m off the mark. And no one who sees the photos of you straddling the equator has to know this, right?
Another tough one to swallow is the myth of the flushing toilet. One of the highlights of the Museo Solar Inti Ñan is the demonstration of water draining counterclockwise north of the equator and clockwise 3m away, south of the equator. Researchers claim it’s a crock. The Coriolis Force – which causes weather systems to veer right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern hemisphere – has no effect on small bodies of water like those in a sink or a toilet. Draining water spins the way it does due to plumbing, eddies in the water, the shape of the basin and other factors.
How about some truth: you do weigh less on the equator. This is due to greater centrifugal force on the equator than at the poles. But the difference between here and at the poles is only about 0.3%, not the 1.5% to 2% the scales at the monument imply.
It is true that the spring and autumn equinoxes are the only days when the sun shines directly overhead at the equator. In fact, that’s what defines an equinox. But that doesn’t mean the days and nights are equal in length, as many would have you believe – this happens just before the spring equinox and just after the autumn equinox, and the day depends on where you are on the planet.
More fascinating than any of the myths perpetuated by Inti Ñan and the Mitad del Mundo, however, is the fact that the true equator (0º0'0'' degrees, according to GPS readings) resides on a sacred indigenous site constructed more than 1,000 years ago. The name of the site is Catequilla, and it sits on a hilltop on the opposite side of the highway from the Mitad del Mundo.

The latitude of the Earth's equator is, by definition, 0° (zero degrees) of arc. The equator is one of the five notable circles of latitude on Earth; the other four are both polar circles (the Arctic Circle and the Antarctic Circle) and both tropical circles (the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn). The equator is the only line of latitude which is also a great circle—that is, one whose plane passes through the center of the globe. The plane of Earth's equator, when projected outwards to the celestial sphere, defines the celestial equator.
In the cycle of Earth's seasons, the equatorial plane runs through the Sun twice per year: on the equinoxes in March and September. To a person on Earth, the Sun appears to travel above the equator (or along the celestial equator) at these times. Light rays from the Sun's center are perpendicular to Earth's surface at the point of solar noon on the equator.
Locations on the equator experience the shortest sunrises and sunsets because the Sun's daily path is nearly perpendicular to the horizon for most of the year. The length of daylight (sunrise to sunset) is almost constant throughout the year; it is about 14 minutes longer than nighttime due to atmospheric refraction and the fact that sunrise begins (or sunset ends) as the upper limb, not the center, of the Sun's disk contacts the horizon.
Earth bulges slightly at the equator; the "average" diameter of Earth is 12,750 km (7,920 mi), but the diameter at the equator is about 43 km (27 mi) greater than at the poles.
Sites near the equator, such as the Guiana Space Centre in Kourou, French Guiana, are good locations for spaceports as they have a fastest rotational speed of any latitude, 460 m/s. The added velocity reduces the fuel needed to launch spacecraft eastward (in the direction of Earth's rotation) to orbit, while simultaneously avoiding costly maneuvers to flatten inclination during missions such as the Apollo moon landings.

De 9701 van Locon werd in 1956 gebouwd door de English Electric Company en heeft daarmee inmiddels de respectabele leeftijd van 60 jaar bereikt. Oorspronkelijk kwam de machine met het nummer 621 in dient bij NS waarna de machine in 1992 omgenummerd werd naar de 683 na de inbouw van de radiografische bediening. In januari 1997 werd de machine door de NS buiten dienst gesteld en blijft in Amersfoort achter. In de maand januari van het jaar 1999 wordt de machine in depot Feijenoord echter weer bedrijfsklaar gemaakt om in Den Haag rangeerwerkzaamheden te gaan verrichten aangezien in dat jaar de treinserie Den Haag Centraal - Venlo met getrokken materieel ging rijden.
In april 2005 belandde de machine vervolgens bij Rotterdam Rail Feeding om rangeerwerkzaamheden in de Rotterdamse haven te gaan verrichten waarna de locomotief, die inmiddels omgenummerd was tot RRF 5, in mei 2012 in Apeldoorn terecht komt voor het rijden van de vuiltreinen in opdracht van Locon waarna deze vervoerder in februari 2013 de machine overneemt. In juli 2013 werd de machine omgewisseld voor de 9702 zodat de RRF 5 ook een grote revisie kan ondergaan en tevens als 9701 in de Locon-kleurstelling kan worden gebracht waarna de machine in Wijster beland voor het rangeren met de VAM wagens.
In december 2013 verliep het inzetcertificaat van dit type locomotieven waardoor deze niet meer op de hoofdbaan mochten worden ingezet. Locon kon hierdoor de Hippels alleen nog maar in Wijster gebruiken aangezien deze hier op privaat terrein rijden. In Apeldoorn neemt de V100 die de trein uit Noordwijkerhout en Crailoo rijdt de rangeerwerkzaamheden over. In augustus 2015 keert de 9701 weer terug naar Apeldoorn omdat het inzetcertificaat inmiddels weer is afgegeven. Tot inzet van dit Bakkie komt het echter niet vaak meer aangezien de V100 dankzij zijn radiobesturing meer geliefd is bij het personeel. Op 13 februari 2016 zal de 9701 worden overgebracht naar Tilburg Industrie om aldaar rangeerwerkzaamheden te gaan verrichten.
Op woensdagavond 10 februari 2016 was de vuiltrein uit Noordwijkerhout en Crailoo zwaar vertraagd. Om wat vertraging in te lopen werd de 9701 in Apeldoorn weer eens ingezet om de vuiltrein bij Circulus-Berkel Stadsreiniging en Afvalbeheer uit te halen. Nadat de machine vier wagens van het type Slps met afvalcontainers beladen met huisvuil bij de vuiloverslag aan de Kayersdijk heeft uitgehaald staat deze op het aansluitwissel gereed om na het sleutelen van de overweg aan de Saba als trein 50082 naar Apeldoorn te vertrekken. Aldaar zal de trein gecombineerd worden met de wagens uit Noordwijkerhout en Crailoo die inmiddels met de 203 160-7 zijn aangekomen. Hierna zal het geheel door de 9901 naar de vuilverbranding in Wijster worden gebracht.

The extraordinary ' My Body Is Made Of Sunlight ' by Circulus :
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciWOXQJAhQg
My god ! My body is made of sunlight !?!!?!
Op vrijdagavond 19 februari 2016 was het een aardige chaos met goederentreinen op station Apeldoorn. Doordat de 1304 van HSL Logistik hier met een asbreuk van de middelste as onder cabine 1 was gestrand met een lege autotrein naar Bad Bentheim hield deze spoor 5 bezet wat normaal door Locon gebruikt wordt voor het samenstellen van de vuiltrein.
Locon moest hierdoor uitzonderlijk uitwijken naar spoor 2 alwaar het samenstellen van de trein een hele puzzel bleek. Nadat de 9901 weer van de trein af was gehaald werd deze met kopmaken op de hoofdbaan richting Deventer en spoor 101 afgerangeerd naar spoor 112 aan de andere kant van het station om plaats te maken voor de rangeerbeweging met de V100 die de wagens bij Circulus-Berkel Stadsreiniging en Afvalbeheer in Apeldoorn heeft uitgehaald en tegen de trein moet plaatsen.
Nadat de 203 160-7 met drie wagens van het type Slps als trein 50082 uit Apeldoorn VAM op spoor 7 is binnengekomen en de loc is omgelopen wordt de hele sleep met kopmaken op de hoofdbaan richting Deventer naar spoor 102 gedirigeerd waar de wagens tegen die uit Noordwijkerhout konden worden geplaatst.

I had seen Marianne coming up the hill. She had been wearing a hat but took it off before she got to the top. When it came to the photos, we tried using a small reflector but it was a real challenge in the breeze. Marianne valiantly tried to hold the reflector and keep the hair out of her eyes. She told me that sometimes her hair goes in a vortex at the top of the Tor. We tried several locations but did not manage to get the vortex effect.
Marianne is a mother of 5 boys. They were all at school or nursery when I met her on the top of Glastonbury Tor. When I asked her about her sons, she said told me that they would all be tall as her ex is very tall.... 6 foot 9! The boys are 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. Marianne smiled as she told me that they get along in varying degrees (or something along those lines).
Marianne said that she quite often brings the flute up the Tor, to play (she is a local). I said that maybe we would meet on the Tor one day, when she had her flute. I could photograph her again. She also plays as a guest artist with Circulus. They would be doing a local gig soon but Marianne did not know whether she would be playing.
Marianne also likes to cycle. She has a trailer for the boys. "Not all of them?" I asked. No, not all of them. I think that maybe she takes the little ones out while the others are still at school.
When we had finished making portraits, I let Marianne take a look at the images. She liked them and remarked on the lovely colour of the images. She showed me her favourite and I thought that it was a good choice, so am using it for my upload.
The photo that Marianne chose was one where she was sitting. I think that like many subjects, she found it a little easier to relax in this position, than when standing. She told me that one of her boys had taken photos of people on the Tor, too. She said that because he was a child with a camera, people were very willing to have their photos taken by him. His pictures came out very well.
Marianne was a great sport. Nothing was a problem to her. Whether dealing with the wind – blowing her hair in her face; putting her phone and headphones to one side, so that she could hold the reflector or sitting on the cold, damp concrete at the base of St Michael's tower.
Thank you Marianne for agreeing to be part of my project it was good to meet you today. Best wishes for bringing up your boys and in all that you do.

During the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography, many world maps were composed of two hemispheres, one for each of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres. However, this elaborately decorated world map projected the world on Northern and Southern Hemispheres, an orientation that was rarely used at this time. This unusual map appeared in Cornelis de Jodes 1593 edition of an atlas publication that was initiated by his father, Gerard, in 1578. Although Corneliss world map did not use the cordiform projection preferred by his father, it did employ a similar border scheme of windheads and clouds.
Een bijzondere verschijning op de sporen bij Apeldoorn VAM is deze VTG Fas. Iemand een idee wat deze wagon hier komt doen?
The sky was blood red at 5:30 this morning as I drove up the one-lane winding road that leads away from the lake. The movie quote "a red sun rises: blood as been spilled this night" kept going around and around in my head as I began the 65 mile drive into the city, which was odd because I should have had more important things on my mind; I was on the way to pick up John Carnett from Nashville International and it was gearing up to be one hell of a long weekend. The plan? Two solid days to capture every professional picture we would need to get this album ready and we were incredibly lucky to have an incredible photographer on hand to do it. Carnett is fascinating, to say the least. As a world-renowned photographer, he has met amazing people, been to amazing places, and produced amazing work. Yet, as is if the plethora of experience wasn’t enough, his naturally inquisitive and inventive nature drives him to continue to push above and beyond where most people would sit back and bask in their own glory. To start with, he is a full time staff photographer with Time-Life publications (most notable for me would be Popular Science) but a self-made expertise in various areas of science and engineering allow him to co-edit the actual stories his pictures are being published for and lend a [brain] to make them more interesting and accurate. To continue, he has a whole series of fully-sponsored side-projects, where he gives his artistic side a break and gets to exercise his mechanical side. For example, his current project is taking a Polaris off-road vehicle and replacing the standard engine with an actual jet-turbine engine complete with a custom gear system that will allow the throttle to access the engine once it's running at 100% power so that this thing will jump from 0-60mph in 3 seconds and have about 5 times the torque of a turbo-diesel engine. But of course that's not enough, so he got the company that makes the heads-up displays and navigation systems for the new F-22 fighter jets to donate a full cockpit outfit to replace the standard controls, so he and a navigator can set the world record for crossing Canada this summer. This may sound crazy to some, but it just makes me think back to when I used to buy toys just to take them apart and re-combine them to make something better and it gives me hope that there actually was truth in the Toys-R-Us theme song. I suppose the point is I was a little nervous (intimidated) getting him from the airport, but there was certainly no shortage of things to talk about on the way back. We talked all about what Circulus is doing, what we were after for Poobah, and a whole lot of technical jargon for my crash course in professional photography. Since we're also iPhone buddies, we discussed the next generation and whether or not Google's Andriod platform would take over (considering he just photographed the man in charge of the whole Android project and got to see the top-secret handset). As soon as we got back to the lake house, everyone was geared up to go and it was time to start making pictures. Stop #1 would be Hurricane Marina where would attempt to get the first shot of Poobah in a little John boat with his guitar and a fishing pole. Now I certainly do my best to describe my experiences here with image-evoking words, but there will simply be no substitute for these pictures, so I will post them when I get my hands on them. Of course, it being my first time on a real photo-shoot with a real pro (especially considering my interest in the art) I was having a blast from the past. We set up all different kinds of lights and strobes and diffusers and counter weights and power packs and remote sync transmitters etc etc etc and I paid very close attention to what they did and how minute changes affected the final product. Lighting may possibly be the most easily over-looked aspect of photography but it absolutely makes all the difference (okay, his top of the line 22 megapixel Canon DSLR didnt hurt either). We were finished in a surprisingly short hour and moved on to stop #2: the cave. One of my favorite aspects of Tennessee is that there arent people absolutely everywhere, which means words like "uncharted" and "undiscovered" still hold some weight. In that regard, Poobah took us to a cave nested back in the mountains which is not currently on any database of caves and therefore technically uncharted (which was great considering I just watched the movie "Descent"). Since Carnett had just come off a shoot at a mine where they pulled off some great creative under-ground lighting, we figured we should try something similar. Unfortunately, the mouth of the cave is completely flooded with cold mountain water (and actually spills out into this phenomenally clear spring) so Poobah couldnt stand inside it like we thought, but we did get pictures of him at this seemingly ancient irrigation channel at the side of the cave. Now, as Poobah explains, this cave first played host to a Tribe of Native Americans who used it in the same way Mesa Verde was constructed - as a one-way fortress; then, in the civil war, confederate soldiers would hide the wounded in these caverns that are so massive a 747 could fit in one. I wanted to explore so badly, but we were on a very tight schedule and I didn't really feel like going for a swim to get down into the cavern. Just beyond the cave we found a little remote shack that sat at the base of stairs carved in the rock mountain side that led up to a tiny wood door. Of COURSE i wasn’t going to leave without seeing what this was, so I climbed up the narrow stairs and found what I'm guessing used to be some sort of kiln or drying room (or moonshine storage for all I know). Seeing as though there weren't catacombs or any form of human remains, we moved on. Site #3 was Poobah's house, where his collection of dogs (two black labs, a golden retriever, an ancient pit-bull, an even older mastiff, and a tiny Pekinese named Pumpkinhead) were brought out to sit with him in an old rocking chair in his field. Of course it was a huge pain to get those dogs to stay put for any period of time, but we came out with some great shots starring his old pit-bull named Sneezy. We stopped for lunch at an old country store that's owned by the nicest elderly couple (who also happen to be huge fans of Poobah) and then moved on to site #4 that was an old country log cabin way out in the hills. As it turns out, this was home to an animal rescues and rehabilitation farm, and we were greeted by a band of horses all with a disability of some sort. Unfortunately the cabin itself looked like a poorly decorated Cracker Barrell, so we opted to move on. The fifth and final site of the day happened purely by chance (and ended up being my favorite) when we drove past a building that had a giant American flag painted on the side. We got the perfect "Where Did America Go" pictures and headed back. (Again, I am only writing with less description here because words wont do the pictures justice) We all headed out to the little restaurant on the far pier in Hurricane Marina, had a lovely little dinner, and called it a day. Of course 18 hours is a fairly solid day.

Come era semplice ed economico giocare una volta.
Quando una bicicletta si rompeva, si approfittava per togliere i cerchioni.
Una volta smontati, si toglievano i raggi e dopo si spingeva questo cerchione con un pezzetto di ferro piegato, chiamato 'a manigghia oppure un pezzetto di legno.
Spingendo abilmente questo cerchione senza farlo cadere, si percorrevano strade, viottoli, scale e continuamente in rotazione, si facevano le corse di velocità o percorsi di destrezza con ostacoli di vario genere che aumentavano le difficoltà.
Quanti ricordi affiorano nella mia mente ....... e quante corse dietro "u circulu"
