After procuring the new caravel ship, Henry was responsible for the early development of Portuguese exploration and maritime trade with other continents through the systematic exploration of Western Africa, the islands of the Atlantic Ocean, and the search for new routes.

"The Henry Ford Building was originally designed on the American model as the main building of a large university campus for up to 10,000 students. The U.S.-American Ford Foundation covererd the cost of construction in the amount of 8.1 million West German marks.
There were 28 submissions to the tendered design competition in 1951. The commission was given to the architects Franz Heinrich Sobotka and Gustav Müller, who after the Second World War were among the most influential architects in West Berlin. Their task was among other things to design the new building to fit in with the residential character and landscape of its surroundings. Sobotka and Müller succeeded in designing a building that in spite of a total area of 200,000 square feet does not give the impression of being monumental. By constructing the entire length of the foyer in glass, the architects created a lightness that almost completely negates the actual mass of the building.
In line with the motto “democracy as client” the architecture of this building suffused with light epitomizes freedom, openness, and transparency – values that Freie Universität has stood for since its founding in December, 1948. After two years of construction, the Henry Ford Building was officially opened on June 19, 1954."

The Model A came in a wide variety of styles including coupes (standard and deluxe), business coupe, sports coupe, roadster coupes (standard and deluxe), convertible cabriolet, convertible sedan, phaetons (standard and deluxe), Tudor sedans (standard and deluxe), town car, Fordors (five-window standard, three-window deluxe), Victoria, town sedan, station wagon, taxicab, truck, and commercial. The very rare special coupe started production around March 1928 and ended in mid-1929.[citation needed]
The Model A was the first Ford to use the standard set of driver controls with conventional clutch and brake pedals, throttle, and gearshift. Previous Fords used controls that had become uncommon to drivers of other makes. The Model A's fuel was situated in the cowl, between the engine compartment's fire wall and the dash panel. It had a visual fuel gauge, and the fuel flowed to the carburetor by gravity. A rear-view mirror was optional.[5] In cooler climates, owners could purchase an aftermarket cast iron unit to place over the exhaust manifold to provide heat to the cab. A small door provided adjustment of the amount of hot air entering the cab. The Model A was the first production car to have safety glass in the windshield.
Model A production ended in March 1932, after 4,858,644 had been made in all body styles.

Ein passender Ort für das Masken-Statement, das Firmenschild,
wie ich finde.
We are cleaning to get ready for house guests this weekend. Henry is not pleased that we are moving stuff around. He his finding it hard to find comfy places ... even though we have not touched his stuff:-)
Another image I thought I'd post that I have updated for my webpage, with more sympathetic processing.
This is either a well known vacuum cleaner, or Selfridges in Birmingham, you decide?!

Fort Henry in Kingston, Canada was originally built during the war of 1812 on Point Henry, beside Lake Ontario, to guard the outlet to the St Lawrence River and the Kingston Navy Yards.
Henry has a rendez-vous for a party down town. He's late and lost. The town is flooded tonight. Nightmare. Luckily Monsieur Armadillo is not far, away from the water.
« Excuse me Monsieur Armadillo, could you please tell me where is Milton Rabbit's party ? »
« Oh dear, you're late ! You'll be lucky if you've got something to drink ! »
« Oh no thank you I don't need anymore liquor tonight... »
Henri a rendez-vous en ville pour faire la f^te. Il est en retard et perdu. La ville est inondée ce soir, un vrai cauchemard. Heureusement Monsieur Armadillo n'est pas loin, à l'abri.
« Excusez-moi Monsieur Armadillo, pourriez vous m'indiquer le chemin pour aller chez Milton Rabbit ? »
« Ohlala, vous êtes en retard ! Vous aurez de la chance s'il reste quelque chose à boire ! »
'Oh non, merci, j'ai eu assez de liquide ce soir... »
Henry was the fly ambassador of goodwill towards humans, he was appointed to raise the profile of flies in the human population and to reduce the loathing felt by certain members of the pink skinned bipedal apes. One of the biggest issues for humans was that flies enjoy regurgitating their stomach contents onto food, dissolving it and sucking up the juices. Henry was thus the first fly to turn vegetarian and to chew his food.
Flies, being diptera, aren’t the smartest of insects, slightly above crane flies, but nowhere as clever as the beetles and social insects and so they hadn’t figured that they needed teeth to properly chew food and start the digestion process. Henry had been trying to chew a piece of this leaf for hours before I came along, to no avail. “Henry, whassup, what ya doin homey’” I said in my most street savvy vernacular (flies, although stupid, liked the latest trend words and spoke like teenagers). “Wicked, bro” said Henry “I’m just chillin wiv dis herbage trying to nyam it”. “Sweet”, I said, continuing to sound like an overaged, underinformed ‘youf’ “dat’s wicked, how long ya bin doin’ dat, innit”. ( I had also figured that using the word innit anywhere in sentences made you sound more street). “abaht free ‘ours, bro’ I feel a bit like I’m gonna puke soon.” I didn’t know what to say, Henry was determined, I watched for a few more minutes and eventually the inevitable happened, Henry puked all over the leaf. “Waste not, want not” said Henry in an almost adult voice as he commenced to suck up the vomit along with the now dissolving vegetation. Nice…
My two lovely Guineas! I enjoy taking pictures of these two, I'm not convinced they are as keen...
I wish I'd got the pics earlier so I could have them as Christmas cards :D

There is archaeological evidence of people residing in Henley since the second century as part of the Romano-British period.[2] The first record of Henley as a substantial settlement is from 1179, when it is recorded that King Henry II "had bought land for the making of buildings". King John granted the manor of Benson and the town and manor of Henley to Robert Harcourt in 1199.[citation needed] A church at Henley is first mentioned in 1204. In 1205 the town received a tax for street paving, and in 1234 the bridge is first mentioned. In 1278 Henley is described as a hamlet of Benson with a chapel. The street plan was probably established by the end of the 13th century. As a demesne of the crown it was granted in 1337 to John de Molyns, whose family held it for about 250 years.

Smuggly was surprised to see Henry living indoors next door ! It was all down to Henry the determination to force our cat flap open. Thankfully Smuggly is looking well-groomed and has a fabulous furry coat . He occasionally sleeps in our greenhouse and we presume he visits a few other houses in the area.
One of a series of small statues made by a firm in Newcastle. This one was withdrawn soon after it appeared because of the recognisable make of vacuum cleaner ("Henry") and its manufacturer considering this to be a naughty use of their image. The series of figures is called "Bad Taste Bears" See more at This Website.

Henry and I crossed paths while attending the opening party of a Tiki themed exhibition at the Strychnin Gallery in East Berlin. He was accompanied by some equally dapper friends (also dressed in spot on period attire) and Bobby, his amazingly well behaved wire hair fox terrier. We discussed the joys and quirks of owning a wire hair fox terrier (I grew up with one as the family dog) and also his passion for the 1920's era and, in particular, 1920's Hot Jazz. He often tours with an orchestra called the Bratislava Hot Serenaders, providing vocals and a debonair presence.
If you'd like to see and hear Henry perform with the Bratislava Hot Serenaders click here. His vocals start about 1:20 into the video. (Note: this video is from a few years back and Henry was joined on stage by Bobby's predecessor, a West Highland Terrier, who has since passed away.)
After explaining the 100 Strangers project to Henry, he was pleased to participate and suggested he pose next to his favorite piece in the exhibition (the grinning Tiki idol). I don't usually manipulate my photos via Photoshop, but I thought Henry would approve of the vintage pastiche created by removing the color. Henry is a charming and genuine chap (my wife and her girlfriends, upon meeting him, were all a bit smitten). If you get the chance to see him perform, don't think twice; I know that I won't.

'Reclining Figure' sculpture by Henry Moore, seen here at Hatfield House, in Hertfordshire.
Henry Spencer Moore (1898 – 1986) is renowned for his monumental sculptures which are displayed all over the world.
Thea Foss started Foss Maritime Company in 1889, offering tug boat services, rowboats and naphtha launches, but that was before Henry's time. The Henry O. was built in 1982 and has a gross tonnage of 194 and busily hustles container ships to and from the Thea Foss waterway in Tacoma.
I was tasked by a friend of mine to get a shot of a tugboat and have been trying for some time. No, this one wasn't good enough either.... :-)
