Info (SP): Con la excepcion de varios microbuses a lo largo de los años, Global no disponia de autobuses con motorizacion Iveco desde 2 unidades Castrosua CS-40 que compraron de prueba las extintas Salcai y Utinsa a principios de los 90. En este caso, y al no haber trabajado con la marca a este nivel, la empresa decidio acudir a Iveco con una oferta de Leasing a 10 años en sus primeras dos remesas
Info (EN): With the exception of a few minibuses throughout the recent years, Global did not possess any buses powered by Iveco since 2 units Castrosua CS-40 bought by the extinct Salcai and Utinsa companies back in the early 90s. Here, since the company was unfamiliar with the brand, they opted for a 10 year lease rather than a purchase for their first two batches
Your computers, shoes, solar panels, socks, i-phones, underpants, pens, cameras and much, much more come from THIS.
I am gonna have to be horrible to bring this message across to the considerable number of people still blind to the ways of their media out "West".
You / your parents did not want this where you lived in the 70's and 80's so your respective governments, in order to retain your "democratic vote" , started outsourcing this to China in the late 1980's (yes, a willing victim, we all agree). Still, all in the name of you wanting clean air you kept on voting for the people who brainwashed you into believing they are doing it all for you and your kids - all so they could earn a salary as an MP / Senator or whatever for another 10 or 20 years ... sadly never giving a second thought about the kids here having to breath in this rubbish you see in my photo.
Now, at last, the wheel is turning and slowly but surely the sh*te we breath here in China is reaching you and as horrible as it to say, terribly sadly, also your kids.
The solution?
Let's all start looking in the mirror, let's ALL stop blaming others and let's ALL do something about this global catastrophe we as a human race is facing.
A Bombardier Global 5000 [N486KL] departing Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport bound for California with the owner of the Philadelphia Eagles onboard following a loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Departing on runway 26.
Delivered new on 22Dec15. It has Zetta Jet titles on the nose. Zetta Jet are based in Singapore.
A triumvirate of three-holers! Avgeeks in MSP have been excited to see the FedEx and UPS MD-11s on a regular basis as they enter the twilight of their careers, so there was lots of excitement today when we got smart flight alerts for this Western Global flight, operating with a Camber callsign, on behalf of the US Military. Odds are fairly high this will be the last time MD-11s from three airlines are at MSP at the same time.

The foreground boat is named "Peedie Lass", meaning Little Girl in Orcadian dialect. Formerly used for local lobster fishing, it is a slowly deteriorating landmark in the village of Cromarty in N Scotland. The structures in the background are ultra modern jackets (bases) for offshore wind turbines, currently being fabricated in the Global Energy yard at Nigg.

AMEYOKO-street, Tokyo, Japan.
This street used to be a local market when I was kid.
It has been famous but it was just a place to buy foods & clothes cheaper. Not for sightseeing place.
Now, AMEYOKO-street is changing from a few yeas ago.
They are getting to accept customers from oversea who want to know usual Tokyo life.
Can you see English caption on labels?
English speakers maybe here, too.
I guess you could have a good time if you visit.

"Global pollution" är min tolkning till Fotosöndag och tema "Absurd",
Skorstenarna som spyr ut sin rök med gasmasken i mitten ska symbolisera det destruktiva och absurda sätt vi människor förgiftar och förstör jorden vi bor på.
"Global pollution" is my contribution to theme "Absurd" for the photogroup Photosunday.
The chimneys and the smoke aside the gasmask is a symbolic picture for the destructive and absurd way we people on earth is living today, which pollute and destroy the world we live in.

The Global Rainbow has reached Norn Iron! A few of us took a run down to Newtownards last night to see the lights from Scrabo Tower. Lots of people about looking at the lights, they are pretty impressive indeed!
Explored #300 thanks!
This image is comprised of data from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellite (POES) series to map global vegetation cover. The vegetation covering the continents was recorded by the AVHRR aboard NOAA-7, NOAA-8, and NOAA-11. Dense vegetation is represented by shades of purple and green; sparse vegetation by shades of brown. The vegetation "index," an indicator of vegetation cover, is calculated by comparing reflected infrared light to reflected visible light for a specific area of land. NOAA's two operational polar orbiting satellites scan the entire earth once every six hours from altitudes of about 850km (529 miles). The data collected by the AVHRR sensor are held in the archives of the United States Geological Survey's EROS Data Center. The objective of the AVHRR instrument was to provide radiance data for investigation of clouds, land-water boundaries, snow and ice extent, ice or snow melt inception, day and night cloud distribution, temperatures of radiating surfaces, and sea surface temperature.
