24th October 2008 - BAE Systems Nimrod MRA4 'ZJ518' comes in on final approach to the Bae facility at Warton.

 

he BAE Systems Nimrod MRA4 was a planned maritime patrol and attack aircraft intended to replace the Hawker Siddeley Nimrod MR2. The rebuilt aircraft would have extended the operating life of the Nimrod fleet by several decades and significantly improved the aircraft by installing more efficient Rolls-Royce BR700 turbofan jet engines to almost double the flight range. The conversion of the flight deck to a digital glass cockpit would have simplified control operations and reduced crew requirements. New detection systems were to be installed, as well as additional weapons for anti-submarine warfare.

 

However, the project was subject to significant delays due to cost overruns and contract re-negotiations. This was partly due to difficulties combining refurbished Nimrod MR2 fuselages, which had not been built to a common standard, with newly built wings. The numbers of aircraft to be procured fell from 21 to nine over a course of years, while costs continued to climb and was eventually cancelled in 2010

The contract brush cutter on the New Hampshire Northcoast is just about finished clearing the main line, this combined with some additional efforts by a certain employee have made the Union Meadows causeway look as good this spring as it probably has since construction of the railroad! Up until relatively recent times this causeway had high brush and trees growing on it, making it completely unshootable. With the freshly rebuilt GP38-2 back on the train this week, albeit in the middle of the consist, combined with decent weather it was a good time to shoot the causeway before the brush starts creeping back up. With 2 loads for Rochester and 25 loads for Boston the three units are having no trouble making track speed despite a late start from Ossipee.

A new year, renewing contract. She signed herself into my power. Every letter, every stroke of her pen was a surrender—her breath, her thoughts, her very essence now bound to my will. She is no longer just an amazing capable woman; she is a vessel, a creation of my command, ready to be shaped, molded, and used. Her soul dances to my rhythm, and in her submission, I find my absolute control. She belongs to me —completely, utterly, and without question.

EMR's "Purple Peril" 43274, along with a small handful of ex. LNER/EMR, have found a new lease of life with Colas Rail for use on Network Rail test trains. The distinctive powercar and fellow classmate 43272 are seen strolling through a damp, autumnal Allerford with the late-running 1Q40 00.25 (08.22) Exeter Riverside-Derby RTC. The PLPR1 test train performed three return trips overnight to Okehampton in preparation for the line's reopening later in the month.

 

The powercars were making what I believe to be their first visits to Taunton since the Midland Mainline era (circa 2006/07), when the pair (previously numbered 43072/074 before conversion to MTU traction) were regularly contracted to work Summer Saturday high speed services to the far west.

Elvis Presley's iconic Pink Cadillac was a 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special. It set style for the era, was sung about in popular culture, and was copied by others around the world.

 

The car is now preserved in the Graceland museum, in Memphis, Tennessee.

 

In early 1955, Elvis bought his first Cadillac, a 1954 Fleetwood Series 60, which was the color pink. The car provided transport for Elvis and the Blue Moon Boys, but after the failure of a brake lining, was destroyed in a roadside fire between Hope and Texarkana, Arkansas, on June 5, 1955.

 

On July 5, 1955, Elvis purchased a new Cadillac Fleetwood Series 60 in blue with a black roof. Having mentioned a Pink Cadillac in the song "Baby, Let's Play House", the first song recorded by Elvis to appear on a national chart which made #5 on the Billboard Country Singles chart in July 1955; Elvis had the car repainted by Art, a neighbour on Lamar Street. Art designed a customised pink color for Elvis which he named "Elvis Rose," but the car kept its black roof. Once the car was finished Elvis gave it to his mother Gladys as a gift. Mrs. Gladys Presley never had a driver's license, and Elvis drove the car with the members of his band for most of 1955–1956.

 

On September 2, 1955, Scotty Moore drove the car into a vehicle which was passing a pick-up truck in Texarkana, Texas, causing $1000 of damage. Having signed his contract with RCA in November 1955, in

March 1956 Elvis had the upholstery replaced, the body retouched and roof painted white. (As can be seen in the book "A Boy from Tupelo", from FTD/2012, in 1955 the Cadillac already has the white roof).

 

The original pink Cadillac remains on permanent display at Graceland, formerly under a carport for many years, and now resident in the auto museum.

Cherry Street North Bridge

As part of the $1.25-billion Port Lands Flood Protection project, Waterfront Toronto will install four new bridges. Two of these bridges will cross the Keating Channel south of Lake Shore Boulevard at the location of New Cherry Street, which will be built west of the existing Cherry Street. The first of these Cherry North Bridges is leaving Dartmouth, Nova Scotia for Toronto in October 2020.

 

About the Cherry North Bridge

• The Cherry North bridge arriving in November weighs 340 tonnes and measures 57 metres long

• The cost for all four bridges is $100 million

• The bridges were designed and engineered by Entuitive, Grimshaw and Schlaich Bergermann

• After an open procurement process, Halifax-based Cherubini Metal Works won the contract to fabricate the bridges. Some specialized work was also done in the Netherlands by a firm called CGI. Specifically, 3D bending of steel plates, which is something only a limited number of firms do

• The steel is Canadian with the exception of the 3D shell components

• The steel bridges are being painted white, each with a distinctive colour on the interior to contrast with the white exterior and accentuate the bridges’ curves

• Bridges will be delivered by barge in large sections and assembled on site in the Port Lands

“Bass Brewery was founded in 1777 by William Bass in Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, England. The main brand was Bass Pale Ale, once the highest-selling beer in the UK. By 1877, Bass had become the largest brewery in the world, with an annual output of one million barrels. Its pale ale was exported throughout the British Empire, and the company's red triangle became the UK's first registered trade mark.

 

Bass took control of a number of other large breweries in the early 20th century. In the 1960s it merged with Charrington United Breweries to become the largest UK brewing company, Bass Charrington. The brewing operations of the company were bought by Interbrew (now Anheuser-Busch InBev) in 2000, while the retail side (hotels and pubs) was renamed Six Continents plc. Because at the time Interbrew controlled a large portion of the UK beer market, the Competition Commission instructed Interbrew to sell the Bass brewery along with certain brands to Coors (now Molson Coors), while retaining the rights to the Bass brand. In 2010, it was widely reported that AB-InBev was attempting to sell the rights to the Bass brand in the UK for around £10 million to £15 million.

 

In the UK, draught Bass (4.4% ABV) has been brewed under contract in Burton by Marston's (formerly a relatively minor competitor) for AB-InBev since 2005, while bottled products are brewed at AB-InBev's own brewery in Samlesbury, Lancashire, for export. Bass is also brewed locally in the United States and Belgium. Bass Ale is a top ten premium canned ale in the UK, with 16,080 hectolitres sold in 2010.”

"The Marquette City Hall is a former government building located at 204 Washington Street in Marquette, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1974.

 

Up until 1893, the city of Marquette had no designated City Hall, and was indeed using, rent-free, a building owned by Peter White. However, when White informed the city that their lease had run out, civic pride prodded the government to plan the construction of a new city hall. The city held a special election to allow the issuance of bonds to pay for the building; on receiving an overwhelming approval, they hired local architects Andrew Lovejoy and Edward Demar to design the building. Contractor Emil Bruce constructed the building at a cost of slightly under $50,000. Part of the contract gave preference to locally sourced building material, and the demand for bricks and sandstone was great enough that the local economy was bolstered through the depression that lingered through the early 1890s. The cornerstone was laid in May 1894, and the building was completed later in the year and dedicated in early 1895.

 

The city used the building until 1975, and it was then sold to a private developer who refurbished it into professional offices.

 

The Marquette City Hall is a three-story rectangular building, measuring 92 by 72 feet (28 by 22 m), combining Richardsonian Romanesque, Second Empire, and Renaissance Revival architectural elements. It is constructed of red brick on a raised sandstone foundation, and surmounted by a tiled Mansard roof with a cupola. The front facade is divided by quoins into five bays. The central bay contains a recessed entrance, while the remaining front bays contain two-story arched windows. The remaining sides of the structure contain ribbon windows.

 

Inside, a main hall runs the full depth of the building, with stairs rising to the second floor. The second floor contained a council chamber that rose two stories.

 

Marquette (/mɑːrˈkɛt/ mar-KEHT) is a city in Marquette County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 20,629 at the 2020 United States Census, which makes it the largest city in the Upper Peninsula. It also serves as the county seat of Marquette County. Located on the shores of Lake Superior, the city is a major port, known primarily for shipping iron ore. The city is partially surrounded by Marquette Charter Township, but the two are administered autonomously.

 

Marquette is the home of Northern Michigan University. In 2012, Marquette was listed among the 10 best places to retire in the United States by CBS MoneyWatch.

 

The land around Marquette was known to French missionaries of the early 17th century and the trappers of the early 19th century. Development of the area did not begin until 1844, when William Burt and Jacob Houghton (the brother of geologist Douglass Houghton) discovered iron deposits near Teal Lake west of Marquette. In 1845, Jackson Mining Company, the first organized mining company in the region, was formed.

 

The village of Marquette began on September 14, 1849, with the formation of a second iron concern, the Marquette Iron Company. Three men participated in organizing the firm: Robert J. Graveraet, who had prospected the region for ore; Edward Clark, agent for Waterman A. Fisher of Worcester, Massachusetts, who financed the company, and Amos Rogers Harlow. The village was at first called New Worcester, with Harlow as the first postmaster. On August 21, 1850, the name was changed to honor Jacques Marquette, the French Jesuit missionary who had explored the region. A second post office, named Carp River, was opened on October 13, 1851 by Peter White, who had gone there with Graveraet at age 18. Harlow closed his post office in August 1852. The Marquette Iron Company failed, while its successor, the Cleveland Iron Mining Company, flourished and had the village platted in 1854. The plat was recorded by Peter White. White's office was renamed as Marquette in April 1856, and the village was incorporated in 1859. It was incorporated as a city in 1871.

 

During the 1850s, Marquette was linked by rail to numerous mines and became the leading shipping center of the Upper Peninsula. The first ore pocket dock, designed by an early town leader, John Burt, was built by the Cleveland Iron Mining Company in 1859. By 1862, the city had a population of over 1,600 and a soaring economy.

 

In the late 19th century, during the height of iron mining, Marquette became nationally known as a summer haven. Visitors brought in by Great Lakes passenger steamships filled the city's hotels and resorts.

 

South of the city, K. I. Sawyer Air Force Base was an important Air Force installation during the Cold War, host to B-52H bombers and KC-135 tankers of the Strategic Air Command, as well as a fighter interceptor squadron. The base closed in September 1995, and is now the county's Sawyer International Airport.

 

Marquette continues to be a shipping port for hematite ores and, today, enriched iron ore pellets, from nearby mines and pelletizing plants. About 7.9 million gross tons of pelletized iron ore passed through Marquette's Presque Isle Harbor in 2005.

 

The Roman Catholic Bishop Frederic Baraga is buried at St. Peter Cathedral, which is the center for the Diocese of Marquette.

 

Lakeview Arena, an ice hockey rink in Marquette won the Kraft Hockeyville USA contest on April 30, 2016. The arena received $150,000 in upgrades, and hosted the Buffalo Sabres and Carolina Hurricanes on October 4, 2016 in a preseason NHL contest. Buffalo won the game 2-0." - info from Wikipedia.

Main Building, glass front towards Frankenring

Textile Engineering School Krefeld (today Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences, Dept. of Design)

1952-1954, Architect Bernhard Pfau

 

"[...] Franz Lorscheidt was responsible for the first construction phase, the contract for the second and third was won by Bernhard Pfau in a restricted competition, who is known for the originality of his designs, which often play with glass, and the often hidden construction principles of his buildings.

The changeability of all school rooms required in the tender brought the architect to his resourceful construction. "At Pfau, design always evolves from construction," says Pfau specialist Marcus Wrede in a 2012 lecture. The facade of the long wing of the building, which is closed with a narrow ribbon of windows and surrounded by greenish glass skin, guides the students to delve deeper into their studies. The building opens onto the bright inner courtyard. [...]

The urgently required renovation of the building complex is a challenge, also because details can no longer be reconstructed today. [...]"

OK, it's been done before. I get that. But it's also a compositional idea that appears simple and one I wanted to try for myself. With today a write-off through rain, I decided to give it a whack.

 

Two hours later I finally got the shot I envisaged, with the assistance of the kitchen bench, a black shirt, a torch, a tissue to muffle the torchlight, a ring, an old book by Balzac (the source of the title), a wireless remote, tripod, a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and a Canon EF 85mm f1.2L II lens.

Tbilisi is again gripped by protests - this time Rustaveli Avenue was occupied by representatives of the opposition, non-governmental organizations and journalists who accuse the authorities

The death of Georgian journalist Lekso Lashkarava, who died a few days after he was beaten during the filming of an anti-LGBT contract, shocked Georgia.

The top officials expressed official condolences and promised an objective investigation, and the opposition accused the authorities of inaction on July 5, when the city was engulfed in riots and more than 50 media representatives were injured.

The opposition and civil society activists announced rallies demanding the resignation of the government at the parliament building.

Please don't think this is a bad photoshop edit, because trust me it isn't! It is bad enough to see the blinds being done virtually home-made, but to then spell the destination wrong as well is taking it a level too far!
