Me stood inside the vast main return duct of the Q121 wind tunnel at the Farnborough Royal Aircraft Establishment site.
The vertical blades just beyond me are one of a set of four fin sets that direct the fast moving air around a series of ninety degree turns within the looped system before being accelerated through a narrow aperture and across the testing platform.
The RAE buildings are the birthplace of the UK's earliest aircraft, missiles, boats and many other experimental and prototype vehicles.

This building, constructed in the Federal and Greek Revival style around 1830-1840, served as Broylesville's general store. Broylesville is just one of the many bustling little communities that once existed but are now nothing more than a dot on the map.

Das Holländische Etablissement ist ein Gebäudekomplex, der sich im Neuen Garten befindet. Es wurde von Friedrich Wilhelm II. zwischen 1789 und 1791 als Wohnsitz für die Bediensteten und als reizvolle Kulisse am Ufer des Heiligen Sees errichtet. Der Komplex besteht aus vier Kavaliershäusern, einem Pferdestall, einer Remise und einem Damenhaus - alle aus rotem Backstein mit holländischen Giebeln, ein Beweis für die traditionelle Verbindung der Hohenzollern mit Holland.

The Satellite Inn in Alamagordo, New Mexico. Alamagordo is home to the Holloman Air Force Base and the nearby White Sands Missile Range, hence the name of this establishment. However, that sculpture on top of the sign looks to me like a model of an atom, not a satellite! Nevertheless, it does make the sign, don’t you think?

About 65 years ago this building housed the first Dairy Queen in Ardmore. It was located about three blocks from the current location. According to Jim, the current owner, the original owner of the Dairy Queen (Mr. Miller) opened his establishment before DQ started franchising and he didn't want to pay the franchising fees when the company began franchising, so he changed the name to Dairy Freeze. DQ opened another store in Ardmore and eventually Dairy Freeze went out of business and the building remained vacant for years. About five years ago Jim (a former executive chef) decided to open Jimmy J's Dairy Freeze. He still offers many of the items from the original Dairy Freeze menu. He also carries real ice cream for your sweet tooth. Ardmore,Oklahoma. 6.13.2017.

Establishment of the cemetery (1848):
Before the construction of the Camperdown Cemetery, there were general cemeteries where Anglicans would have to share the space with both other Christian and pagan denominations. This was not satisfactory to the strong Anglican community in the colony, which sought to retain its sectarian social exclusivity beyond the grave. The Anglican Camperdown Cemetery was created on the 12th of July 1848. It opened in 1849.
Operation of the cemetery (1848 - 1866):
As a major cemetery for the dominant religion in Sydney, the range of interments was broad. In the period of its operation more than sixteen thousand burials were placed in the cemetery, making it a significant nineteenth century urban cemetery by any standards.
In 1850, Mogo, a Koori (Aboriginal New South Wales man) from Towel Creek on the Upper Macleay Valley was buried in what became known as 'Cooee Corner' of the cemetery (on the Lennox Street side). His grave was originally decorated with shells taken from an Aboriginal midden in Pittwater. Some time after the cemetery closed in 1942 this and adjacent areas were cleared, headstones moved within the perimeter of the newley-erected stone wall, where they remain today. It is not known what became of Mogo's remains but his sandstone headstone, the inscription blurred by weathering, lies on the ground next to an obelisk, erected in tribute to Aboriginal people buried in the cemetery in 1944 by the Rangers' League of New South Wales in memory of Mogo Perry (d.1849, aged 26) and two other Kooris buried in the cemetery - Wandelina Caborigirel (d. 1860, aged 18) and Tommy (d. aged 11). The inscription says the obelisk was erected 'Also as a tribute to the whole of the Aboriginal race'.
It is now a great deal more about the operation of this cemetery than other comparable establishments because of the Select Committee of the New South Wales Legislative Council which held hearings in 1865 - 1866 as a result of complaints about health and morality issues. The Select Committee evidence concentrates mainly on the pauper burials, suggesting that multiple interments were common.
Closure of the cemetery (1867 - 1948):
Health and hygienic problems were exacerbated as the population of Newtown and Camperdown increased dramatically from the late 1840s onwards, leading to the closure of the cemetery by the Newtown Municipal Council. On the 2nd of September 1867 the Camperdown and Randwick Cemetery Act was assented. From the 1st of January 1868 all burials in the cemetery would cease, apart from those who had a compelling reason.
In 1948 the Camperdown Cemetery Act divided the land into a 12 acre that was to become a public park, with the remaining 4 acres to form the historic core of the cemetery, along with the sexton's cottage and Saint Stephens Church. The wall surrounding the new cemetery core was completed in 1951, and headstones removed and installed inside the new compound.
The Current Camperdown Cemetery:
The Camperdown Cemetery was established in 1848 on about 13 acres of the 240 acres granted to Governor Bligh, known as the Camperdown Estate. This was the first privately-owned and operated Anglican cemetery in Sydney. It was the main cemetery for Sydney from 1849 to 1867. During this time it received over 15,000 interments and was the subjct of a state government select committee inquiry. This inquiry was convened to address the mismanagement of a number of cemeteries within Sydney and it found that the accusations directed at the Camperdown Cemetery were founded. Sale of plots was terminated in 1867 and it closed in 1868 but a trickle of burials continued until the 1940s (Brettell, 2015 says 1920s, these being within family and pre-purchased plots and crypts).
Following its closure the cemetery fell into disrepair. It was reduced in size in the 1950s when Camperdown Memorial Rest Park was established, comprising two distinct sections that now comprise the area - the Saint Stephens Church and graveyard (within a six foot high sandstone wall) and the Camperdown Memorial Rest Park (without the wall), treated as broadly grassed open space with pockets of tree planting, and, directly south of the graveyard wall, a children's play ground area. The Church and graveyard have been managed since the 1970s by the Camperdown Cemetery Trust and the Camperdown Memorial Rest Park is managed by Marrickville Council.
In 2021 $20,000 grant funding will support restoration of headstones in Camperdown Cemetery.

Become a psychedelic flower of the trance-human revolution, an anti-christ-establishment cult-ural phenomenon. Enjoy a cataclysmic decline in human cognition due to a dehumanized zombie like state of mindless conformity as you embrace your electronic slavery. Participate in the new social norms of deviant social evolution while in your brand new altered state of consciousness. The hypnotic patterns of synchronized antichrist frequencies producing rhythmic motor patterns in the absence of your sensory inputs will control you like a robot. How exhilarating!
Will you become a flower child of the Fourth Industrial Revolution? Will you be a budding flower of transhumanism—a bloom, a hybrid, a child of the Beast? Don’t forget your passport; grab your Digital ID and head toward the goal, toward the Mark. Immortality is waiting; it is waiting until Judgment Day, when you will receive your just reward of eternal punishment. Your pedals will be plucked off. You will wilt and fade away, no longer to be remembered. Your fragrance will smell of fire, your aroma of sulfur.

The imperial city of Chemnitz was founded in the 12th century, emerging from a Benedictine monastery. Its rise as an important trading centre in the foothills of the Ore Mountains was followed by the establishment of the city as a commercial and later industrial location in the wake of the emerging mining industry in the Ore Mountains in the 16th century. Supported primarily by coal mining in western Saxony, Chemnitz developed into one of the most important centres of German mechanical engineering and the textile industry in the 19th century. During this period, Chemnitz was also known as Little Manchester or Rußchemnitz. In the 1920, it was a leading city in the European textile market. Auto Union (today Audi) was founded 1932 in Chemnitz. In the 1930s, the three busiest squares in the Greater German Reich were Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, Stachus in Munich and Johannisplatz in Chemnitz, of which nothing remains today except the name. Its economic importance made Chemnitz a primary target for Allied air forces during the Second World War, resulting in the city being almost completely destroyed in February 1945. Even after the Second World War and the reconstruction of the destroyed industrial plants, Chemnitz remained one of the most important industrial centres in the GDR, the East German state founded in 1949.. On 10 May 1953, the city was renamed by decision of the East German government to Karl-Marx-Stadt (Karl Marx City) after Karl Marx, in recognition of its industrial heritage and the Karl Marx Year marking the 135th anniversary of his birth and the 70th anniversary of his death.After the city centre was destroyed in World War II, the East German authorities attempted to rebuild it to symbolise the conceptions of urban development of a socialist city. The historic layout of the city centre at that time was rejected in favour of a new road network. However, the original plans were not completed.. After the peaceful revolution of 1989 in the GDR, but still before the German reunification, a referendum on the future name of the city was held on 23 April 1990, : 76% of the voters voted for the old name "Chemnitz". On 1 June 1990, the city was officially renamed. After the reunification of Germany on 3 October 1990, the city of Chemnitz faced several difficult tasks. Many inhabitants migrated to the former West Germany and unemployment in the region increased sharply..Since than, the layout of the city centre has been changed fundamentally with the collaboration of renowned international architects Most of its industry is now gone and the core of the city has been rebuilt with many shops as well as huge shopping centres. . Chemnitz has had to reinvent itself, like so many times before in its long history. This process has led to ithe election of the city as one of the two Capitals of European Culture in 2025.

The establishment on the right is one of a chain of restaurant/deli's in New York called "Cosi." I guess they must serve coffee and croissants, etc -- because this photo was taken at 8:35 AM, which means it was far to early for them to be serving lunch.

I spent the first two weeks of September 2015 on a river cruise down the Rhine River, with daily visits to ancient (German) castles and small (German) villages along the way. Our trip culminated in Berlin (pictures forthcoming over the next week or so), where we stayed in a terrific hotel in what was once East Berlin … but was no longer distinguishable from any other part of Berlin …
Anyway, I thought it might be helpful to know a few German words and phrases besides what little I remembered from four years of high-school German, taken a lifetime ago… so I signed up for a one-week intensive one-on-one German class at the Berlitz school in mid-town Manhattan. I’m not sure how much I really learned, and I doubt that I’ll remember very much at all in a month or two … but I do think it was a worthwhile exercise.
The “exercise” involved daily trips, via subway, from Manhattan's Upper West Side to the IRT station at 50th Street and Seventh Avenue — from which I walked a couple blocks east to the Berlitz location near Rockefeller Center. When the class was over each day, I retraced my steps to get back home.
Naturally, I had my camera with me while I made this daily journey; and I couldn’t help snapping a few photos along the way. Most of the people that I saw were tourists … but there were a few “native” New Yorkers, and a few others of dubious origin.
Not the greatest photos in the world, I’m sure … but it shows you another “slice of life” in the Big Apple.
The establishment of the Roman settlement of Aventicum, which became the capital of the province, took place around 15-13 B.C. The name comes from the Helvetian spring goddess Aventia. After patronage by the emperor Vespasian, Aventicum soon developed into a blooming commercial center with over 20,000 inhabitants. (wikipedia) There are still amazing Roman ruins in Avenches, Switzerland, including this amphitheater. I also visited the Roman museum that is next to the amphitheather here.

Since the establishment of the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad in the late 1980s, one of the more popular photo spots on the line has been this old Cumberland & Pennsylvania Bridge #2 (MP 180.4). Unfortunately, it's in a pretty heavily wooded area and keeping the spot suitable for photography has been a continual challenge. That has especially been true since Western Maryland Locomotive #734 went down for major maintenance several years ago, and there had been no photo events here in some time.
For 2022, with the former C&O 2-6-6-2 #1309 now in service on the line, crews from Trains Magazine and Lerro Photography have really been busy in the past year with the brush hogs and they've really opened the spot nicely once again. So, for the November, 2022 photo shoot, organized by Trains Magazine, we not only had a nicely-manicured spot from which to take this photo, but mother nature also rewarded us with clearing skies and bright fall sun. Wouldn't you know it, when Locomotive 1309 arrived with her coal train, she came through almost completely clean stack.....on BOTH runbys. :o(
The Democracy Monument is a public monument in the center of Bangkok Thailand. The monument was commissioned in 1939 to commemorate the 1932 Siamese coup d'état (also called "Siamese Revolution of 1932" or just "1932 Revolution") which led to the establishment of a constitutional monarchy in what was then the Kingdom of Siam by its military ruler Field Marshal Plaek Phibunsongkhram.
The Eiffel Tower is an iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris, named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower.
The projected tower had been a subject of some controversy, attracting criticism both from those who did not believe that it was feasible and also from those who objected on artistic grounds. Their objections were an expression of a longstanding debate about the relationship between architecture and engineering. This came to a head as work began at the Champ de Mars: A "Committee of Three Hundred" (one member for each metre of the tower's height) was formed, led by the prominent architect Charles Garnier and including some of the most important figures of the French arts establishment: a petition was sent to Charles Alphand, the Minister of Works and Commissioner for the Exposition, and was published by Le Temps.

The establishment of St John’s Church Richmond was a long time in the making. By the early 1820’s there were approximately 1000 Catholics in the area (not including convicts). In fact Richmond had the highest Catholic population outside of Hobart and Launceston.
The church was made possible by Australia’s first catholic archbishop, John Bede Polding, who visited Tasmania on his way to a position in Sydney. Polding visited the Richmond catholics who used to gather at the home of John Cassidy, who owned land slightly north-east of the village centre called Woodburn.

Briefly the National Gas Turbine Establishment at Pyestock Fleet was built in 1949 beginning with some small test cubicals inside buildings like the plant house and has since been added to over the years resulting in the huge site that stands there today.
For over 50 years Pyestock was at the forefront of gas turbine development. It was probably the largest site of its kind in the world. V bomber, Harrier and Tornado engines were tested on site. The power of the air house allowed Concorde’s engines to be tested in the purpose built Cell 4 at 2,000 mph. Every gas turbine installed in Royal Navy ships was checked here; captured Soviet engines were discreetly examined.
NGTE Pyestock closed down in 2000 and decommissioned to make way for a business park.
Pyestock was used for several scenes in the 2005 film Sahara by Breck Eisner, based on the best-selling book of the same name by Clive Cussler. Internal sections of Cell 3 and Cell 4 were suitably reworked for the film’s supposedly solar powered waste disposal facility.
