“All dictators, the rich and famous, to the lowest security guard who holds a gun, easily forget that power is transitory.”

Abandoned "Estadio José Martí" or "Parque José Martí" in La Habana -- Cuba. It was originally designed in the 1940's under dictator Batista's regime. After the revolution the new socialist government selected architect Octavio Buigas to design what would be the focal piece of the park, the grandiose grandstand. The unusual and strong forms rise up from the landscape like concrete waves, reflecting the post-revolutionary architectural and political tides in Cuba. Its design is reminiscent of the Miami Marine Stadium in Miami which was designed by a Cuban architect as well.
Architect: Octavio Buigas de la Cruz
Built: 1959-1960
Structural system: Thin-walled cantilever
Construction material: Reinforced concrete
With its close proximity to the ocean, the salinity in the air penetrates the concrete and causes corrosion of the reinforced steel bars causing the structures to quickly deteriorated. Despite this, Cubans continue to train, exercise and play soccer in the crumbling sports complex.
Face in the sand
Everybody's waiting for something to happen
Everybody's waiting for something to see
Lunatics waiting for bigger disasters
Everyone's waiting for news on TV
Winding lives at the end of the spiral
Waiting dictators with their next big thrill
Everyone's looking, but no one is listening
Everybody wants to be in at the kill
I wait for the signs, they tell me true
I see the signs of the end of time
Everyone's searching, but nothing's revealing
Everyone's looking for the reason why
Everyone's hoping for life everafter
Everyone's looking at death from the sky
Everyone's nightmares are going to happen
Everybody's ripping the mask from their eyes
Everyone's praying but no one's believing
Everyone's heroes tell everyone's lies
I wait for the signs, they tell me true
I see the signs of the end
So I watch and I wait
And I pray for an answer
An end to the strife and the world's misery
But the end never came
And we're digging the graves
And we're loading the guns for the kill
Can the end be at hand?
Is the face in the sand
Future memory of our tragedy?
Can the end be at hand?
Is the face in the sand
Future memory of our tragedy?
I fight for peace

Place d'Espagne – Séville (Espagne)
Elle sert de décor à une scène du film Star Wars, épisode II : L'Attaque des clones (2002), ainsi que comme quartier général de l'armée anglaise en Égypte dans le film Lawrence d'Arabie (1962). En 2012, elle sert également de palais au dictateur incarné par Sacha Baron Cohen dans le film The Dictator.
Exposition ibéro-américaine de 1929 : elle doit permettre au pays de renouer avec le Nouveau Monde, d'améliorer les relations avec les différents pays latino-américains et de réunir la majorité de ces nations, mettant en scène la mémoire du passé impérial espagnol et rendant ainsi hommage à la race hispanique.
This somewhat rare and unusual car/truck took Best in Class at the 2024 Lime Rock Concours Show. The truck was developed around Studebaker's Dictator car, (looks more like their Commander model, so the info could be wrong) used it's chassis along the front and rear styling features of the car. This hybrid car/truck predated Ford's Ranchero and Chevrolet's El Camino by around 20 years.
The Studebaker Coupe Express is a passenger car based coupe utility, produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana, between 1937 and 1939. Featuring an automobile styled cab and flared rear fenders right off the Studebaker Dictator, it was sold both with a manufacturer supplied pick up style metal bed, and as a rolling chassis and cab to be fitted with a bed or boxes by the purchaser.
The Coupe Express was designed by Raymond Loewy and utilized the Dictator passenger car frame, running gear, and front sheet metal. A new body stamping was made to form the cab back. The model was sold both with a manufacturer supplied metal bed and as a cab and chassis, with the Dictator’s automobile-style sweepingly flared rear fenders attached. A service box, built to specification, would be fabricated by (or for) the end user (such as a plumber or electrician).
The truck was powered by the larger of Studebaker's L-head six-cylinder flathead engines and mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. Studebaker offered a Borg-Warner 3-speed transmission with overdrive as an option. Other options included a radio, heater, wire reinforced sliding back window and turn indicators. Two optional wheels were available, including a stamped steel disc wheel and a stamped steel 'artillery' spoked wheel.
Production for the 1937 model year was approximately 3,000 units.
The truck's passenger cab was restyled in 1938 to reflect the modernized passenger car sheet metal resulted a slightly longer pickup bed. Production for 1938 was approximately 1,200 units.
The 1939 model was again remodeled to reflect Studebaker's annual design updates. Production was approximately 1,000 units. The Coupe Express model was discontinued after the 1939 model year, and Studebaker did not offer a successor model for 1940.
Studebaker introduced the M-Series pickup truck 1941, while the company used the Coupe Express name in advertising for a time,[citation needed] but no M-Series trucks were ever officially designated as the Coupe Express.
The fact that Studebaker itself labeled it a “coupe” rather than a truck (a very different thing at that time; retained a stylish, even luxurious, interior instead of replacing it with a more utilitarian one; and never named or officially referred to any of its actual pickup trucks with the terms “coupe“ or “express“, further distance it from being labeled as one.

Will someone please say the unsayable?
Will someone please tell me I'm wrong?
I live every day like a sad beast of prey
For I have to appear to be strong
And that's wrong
I'm too weak to be strong
Today I met with the generals
And the head of my secret police
Discussing conspiracies and prison facilities
For opponents I can never release
And there'll be no peace
Until they're released
Of course I'm in league with the army
It's not like I've got any choice
They officially adore me and my father before me
But gunpoint has a firm voice
The joke is I'm not even a demagogue
Have you heard me giving a speech?
My facts are invented
I sound quite demented
So deluded it beggars belief
It would be such a relief
Not to give another speech
Can someone please say the impossible?
Crowds should be out on the street
I've lost any will to threaten or kill
I'll be easy for you to defeat
And any resistance I meet
I'll beat a retreat
I'd rather that you didn't shoot me
But I'd quite understand if you did
Watch out for the army
The generals will go barmy
At the thought of a takeover bid
Oh please will somebody put me
Out of my misery?
This sad old dictator must sooner or later
Flee so that you can be free
If you get rid of me
We can all be free

For some strange reason (perhaps because I live in S Korea), this spider reminds me of that disgusting dictator up north, surrounded by his fawning lackeys. Except that DL is she, not he. Nothing but the best for breakfast - a choice Macroglossum bombylans imported from Paris.
The Studebaker Dictator was an automobile produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana from 1927-1937. The name was intended to connote that the model "dictated the standard" that other automobile makes would be obliged to follow. At the time, the only dictator that would have immediately come to an American mind was Benito Mussolini, whose popular image was one of audacity and strength, in spite of well-publicized fascist violence. However, the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany tainted the word 'dictator'. Studebaker abruptly discontinued the name 'Dictator' in 1937.

The Studebaker Dictator is an automobile produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana, United States from 1927-1937. Model year 1928 was the first full year of Dictator production.. Studebaker Cruise-In at Winks, August 26, 2006.
If there's one thing that dictators do a lot of, it's over-sized buildings, and the one that tops the list is the Palace of the Parliament in Bucharest. Originally called the People's Palace, the people of Romania certainly didn't ask for it. The colossal structure was built simply to show off the power of one man, Nicolai Ceausescu.
Si hay algo que los dictadores hacen mucho, son edificios de gran tamaño, y el que encabeza la lista es el Palacio del Parlamento en Bucarest. Originalmente llamado Palacio del Pueblo, la gente de Rumania ciertamente no lo solicitó. La colosal estructura fue construida simplemente para mostrar el poder de un hombre, Nicolai Ceausescu.

This reminded me so much of the Barber Chair scene from Chaplin's "The Great Dictator"

On January 24, 1940, dictator Adolf Hitler gave dictator Francisco Franco a Mercedes Benz 540 G4 W31 car for his birthday, which was delivered by the then ambassador of the Third Reich in Spain, Eberhard von Stohrer, at the Royal Palace in Madrid.
The Führer had two of these models, and a fourth model was given to dictator Benito Mussolini.
With an eight-cylinder in-line engine, 5.4 liters and 115 horsepower, it was capable of moving its 3,840 kg. at a top speed of 67 km/h. With a consumption of 38 litres per 100 km in the city and ten litres less on the highway, with a 98 litre tank, two electric fuel pumps and one mechanical one
However, this Mercedes was not a pure off-roader.
Its four rear wheels propelled the car, but its front axle was not driven.
Even so, equipped with a gearbox with a reduction gear, two rigid rear axles, off-road tyres and a good height, it was really capable of going well off the asphalt.
Its braking system was hydraulic, with servo-assistance on the three axles of the vehicle.
The vehicle was equipped with a set of custom-made chains and six suitcases signed by Karl Baisch.
Franco was not completely convinced by this model, since due to a breakdown, the dictator, who had returned from a hunting trip, had to return to the palace in a Willys Jeep belonging to his personal guard.
However, the change in the Second World War and the defeat of the Third Reich led the Spanish Government to not use this and other vehicles due to the political connotations they entailed.
Mercedes, for its Stuttgart museum, offered the then enormous sum of 1,000 million pesetas for Franco's Mercedes, which at current exchange rates and inflation, we could be talking about more than seven million euros (or US dollars).
DISMANTLED PIECE BY PIECE: A few years later, already in the 21st century, Patrimonio Nacional accepted Mercedes' offer to overhaul the G4, despite the mechanics of the Royal Guard, who take care of it, as well as the rest of the fleet of official vehicles, manufacturing themselves parts for which there were no spare parts.
In the Mercedes workshops, the jewel was dismantled piece by piece in Stuttgart and for three years the German technicians drew the blueprint of the car and, took advantage of the opportunity to faithfully repair the only one of the lower series cars that is exhibited in their museum.

UN MERCEDES MUY ESPECIAL, 2024
(De mis propias fotos archivadas, 2024)
El 24 de enero de 1940 el dictador Adolf Hitler le regaló al dictador Francisco Franco por su cumpleaños un coche Mercedes Benz 540 G4 W31, que lo entregó el entonces embajador del III Reich en España, Eberhard von Stohrer, en el Palacio de Oriente de Madrid.
El Führer tenía dos de estos modelos, y un cuarto modelo le fue regalado al dictador Benito Mussolini.
Con un motor de ocho cilindros en línea, 5,4 litros y 115 caballos de potencia, era capaz de mover sus 3.840 kg. a una velocidad punta de 67 km/h. con un consumo de 38 litros a los 100 km en ciudad y diez litros menos por carretera, contando con un depósito de 98 litros, con dos bombas eléctricas de combustible y una mecánica
Sin embargo este Mercedes no era un todoterreno puro.
Sus cuatro ruedas traseras impulsaban al coche, pero su eje delantero no era motriz.
Aún así, dotado de una caja de cambios con reductora, dos ejes rígidos traseros, neumáticos todoterreno y una buena altura, era realmente capaz de marchar bien por fuera del asfalto.
Su equipo de frenado era hidráulico, con servo-asistencia en los tres ejes del vehículo.
El vehículo iba equipado con un juego de cadenas hechas a medida y seis maletas firmadas por Karl Baisch.
A Franco no le acabó de convencer este modelo, ya que debido a una avería, el dictador, que venía de una jornada de caza, tuvo que volver al palacio en un Jeep Willys de su guardia personal.
Sin embargo el cambio de signo de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la derrota del Tercer Reich llevaron al Gobierno español a no utilizar este y otros vehículos por los connotaciones políticas que conllevaban.
La casa Mercedes, para su museo de Stuttgart, ofreció la entonces enorme cantidad de 1.000 millones de pesetas por el Mercedes de Franco, que al cambio e inflacción actuales, podríamos estar hablando de más de siete millones de euros (o dólares USA).
DESMONTADO PIEZA A PIEZA: Unos años más tarde, ya en el siglo XXI, Patrimonio Nacional aceptó el ofrecimiento de Mercedes de revisar el G4, a pesar de los mecánicos de la Guardia Real, que cuidan de él, así como del resto de la flota de vehículos oficiales, fabricando ellos mismos piezas de las que no había repuesto.
En los talleres de Mercedes, la joya fue desmontada pieza a pieza en Stuttgart y durante tres años los técnicos alemanes dibujaron el plano del coche y, aprovecharon para reparar con fidelidad el único de los automóviles de la serie inferior que se exhibe en su museo.

The Studebaker Dictator was an automobile produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana (USA) from 1927-1937. Model year 1928 was the first full year of Dictator production.
The Dictator was Studebaker's lowest-price model, followed (in ascending order) by the Studebaker Commander and Studebaker President series. There was a Chancellor in 1927, too, but that year only
In June 1929, Studebaker began offering an 8-cylinder engine for the Dictator series (221 cubic inches, 70 bhp at 3,200 rpm), designed by Barney Roos
No not mine !!
This is the bathroom of the former dictator of Romania , Nicolae Ceausescu . Just a wee bit OTT, I feel, but then dictators are not known for their exquisite taste. All this extravagant use of gold while his subjects were starving. Taken at the Spring palace , Bucharest .
Click on image(2x) to see the incredible detail.
The All Saints monastery was built in early XVIII century by St. Antim the Iverian, the Metropolitan bishop of Wallachia at the time. Nicolae Ciausescu, the Communist dictator of Romania, ordered to have the monastery demolished to make space for his Palace of the Parliament, but a group of engineers were able to save the historic church by convincing Ciausescu that they could move it on rails away from the construction site and "hide" it from his sight behind an apartment building.
St. Antim himself was a truly remarkable man with a truly tragic life story. He was born in Georgia (hence the Iverian moniker, as Georgia was known as Iveria at the time), captured by the Ottomans and sold as a slave in Constantinople. At the slave market he caught an eye of the Orthodox Patriarch who rescued him from slavery and taught him. St. Antim proved to be truly brilliant, learned fluently many languages and sciences, and set up the first printing press in the principality of Wallachia, pre-cursor of modern Romania, and even traveled to Tbilisi to set up the first printing press in his native Georgia. St. Antim rose to head the Orthodox church in Romania, supported and inspired efforts to free the country from the Ottoman yoke. This arose resentment by an Ottoman-appointed princeling who ruled in Bucharest, who banished him to another part of the Turkish domain. On the way to be exiled somewhere in modern-day Bulgaria, he was murdered. St. Antim was canonized in 1990's.
Монастырь Всех Святых был построен в начале XVIII века Св. Антимом Иверийцем, митрополитом Валахии. В 1980-е гг. при Чаушеску монастырь собирались снести чтобы освободить место для строительства Дворца Парламента, но группа инженеров смогла спасти историческую церковь, убедив диктатора, что они смогут её сдвинуть на рельсах в сторону от стройки и "спрятать" в одном из дворов.
Св. Антим Ивериец, основатель монастыря, был выдающимся человеком с очень трагичной судьбой. Он родился и вырос в Грузии, был схвачен во время набега турков, обращён в рабство, и продавался на невольничьем рынке в Констанополе. По счастливой случайности, он приглянулся Патриарху, который его выкупил и обучил. Св. Антим стал одним из самых просвещённых иерархов Православной церкви, свободно владевшим несколькими языкаи. Он основал первый печатный станок в Румынии, а также вернувшись на время в родную Грузию основал первый печатный станок в Тбилиси. Приняв сан митрополита он поддерживал и вдохновлял попытки свергнуть турецкое иго в Румынии, чем вызвал гнев князька, назначенного в Бухарест Портой. Он приказал сослать Св. Антима из Румынии; по пути в ссылку, где-то в Болгарии, он был убит. Св. Антим был канонизирован в 1990-е гг.
