The place de la Nation (formerly place du Trône, subsequently place du Trône-Renversé) is a circle on the eastern side of Paris, between Place de la Bastille and the Bois de Vincennes, along the border of the 11th and 12th arrondissements.
Widely known for having the most active guillotines during the French Revolution, the square was renamed the Place de la Nation on 14 July 1789, Bastille Day.
Featuring a large bronze sculpture, the 'Triomphe de la République', the square is encircled by shops and a flower garden — and is served by the Paris Metro station Nation (Wikipedia).

The Crescent Development Project or The Crescent Bay (formerly known as Caspian Plus) is skyscraper complex which is under construction on the Caspian Sea coast in Baku, Azerbaijan.
The complex comprises an offshore hotel (Crescent Hotel), office tower (Crescent City), residential tower, and a retail and entertainment centre (Crescent Place). The project is intended to be an architectural landmark.
In February 2008, skyscrapernews.com, a well-known architectural review website, published an article about two projects designed by the Korean company, Heerim Architects, for construction in Baku. The projects, both with a lunar theme, were described as, "an attempt to reinvent the concept of the skyscraper beyond the traditional". The article described two skyscraper complexes, proposed for construction on neighbouring peninsulas, on opposite shores of Baku Bay. The first, Full Moon Bay, was to be constructed on the western side of the bay. It included a 158-meter, 35-storey, discoid hotel called "Palace of the Winds 1 and 2".The second complex, "Caspian Plus", had been proposed for construction on the eastern edge of Baku Bay near the seaport, acting as a counterpoint to "Full Moon Bay". Initially, the second project included a 32-storey crescent-shaped hotel (standing on its "horns" offshore), four high-rise residential buildings, and a 43-story business centre standing 203 metres tall (now called Crescent City Tower). The fate of the related projects remained uncertain until October 2009 when foundation work in the location of the "Caspian Plus" complex was started.
The project has since been modified. A trio of high-rise residential buildings was removed to avoid visual overlapping of two other buildings (Port Baku Towers and Port Baku Residence). After modification, the project consisted of a hotel ("The Crescent Hotel"), an office tower ("The Crescent City"), and a high-rise residential building with a podium ("The Crescent Place"). The previous name of the project, "Caspian Plus", was changed to "The Crescent Development Project".
The project Full Moon Bay was cancelled.
The "Crescent Development Project" is situated with one part on the waterfront of Baku. An offshore part, which includes "The Crescent Hotel", will be located on an artificial island about 170 metres from shore. There will be an office tower ("The Crescent City"), and a residential high-rise building with a podium ("The Crescent Place"), on the coastline behind "The Crescent Hotel".
"The Crescent Hotel" is a curving arched building. It is designed to look like a crescent moon with its points on the surface of the Caspian Sea. The crescent shape of the building refers to one of the symbols of Azerbaijan, depicted on its national flag. The skyscraper’s arcuate configuration will not affect the interior of the hotel as the building will rely on two multi-storey column-like towers, which will create additional space and act as a support for the hotel. These supporting towers are called Eastern and Western in accordance with their location. "The Crescent Hotel" comprises 32 floors (28 storeys of the hotel itself standing over a 4-storeys podium). Upon completion, the hotel will comprise 230 guest rooms, 74 apartments and 16 villas. The total area is 177,969 m²2, parking is planned for 601 cars. "The Crescent Hotel" will be connected to the shore and other buildings of the project via a bridge. This hotel is planned to be a 'seven-star' facility.
The office tower, “The Crescent City”, is a 210-metre skyscraper with 43 overground levels. It is being built behind "The Crescent Hotel" on the waterfront next to the seaport of Baku and the “JW Marriott Absheron”. According to the project design, the facade of the building is cylindrical and slightly flattened at the north-south direction. The bottom of the tower is narrow and widens as it approaches the top which includes a concave notch. The shape of "The Crescent City" is designed to resemble a torch.
"The Crescent Place" consists of 3 basement floors and 32 overground levels: a 5-storey podium, 2 floors of town houses and a 25-storey residential tower with 2 additional penthouse levels. The Crescent Place will be located onshore next to the tower of "The Crescent City". This residential building, standing 170 metres tall, will include 168 apartments. The total area of the Crescent Place is 273 000 m², with space for approximately 100 retail outlets and an additional 40 food and beverage units.
According to a report published by the management company, almost all piling work for the project had been completed by November 2013. Nine percent of the entire project had been constructed. Ten percent of the coastal part of the Project had been completed.
In July 2015, DSA Architects International was appointed to take over multidisciplinary lead consultancy design services on the Crescent Development Project, with construction works ongoing.
The plot for "The Crescent Hotel" lies within an area in the Caspian Sea. In May 2012, hehe setting was started. These piles were installed in two rows around the perimeter of the future hotel's location. A double metal fence was then installed around the site which restricted any additional water entering the area. Once the fence was completed, water was pumped from the site, and it was filled with sand to create the foundation of the building.[citation needed] As of early 2013, the soil creating the artificial island has been formed, and foundation work for the Western and Eastern towers is completed. The piles constructed for "The Crescent Hotel", with a diameter 1500–2000 mm and a length 76.1 meters, are the biggest ever built in Azerbaijan. It was planned to build 464 piles by the end of 2013. By the beginning of 2015, development of both the Eastern and Western Towers had begun on the artificial island.
Given the complexity of the building’s geometry, a number of contracting companies from the world-wide were engaged in the construction. Many of them faced challenges in achieving their goals. So, Derby Design Engineering cited that the main challenge was to design a constructible solution for the link-bridge between the column-like towers. This arch has a span of 90 meters which supports 5 hotel levels, hanging off the link-bridge truss. The Koltay Facades website stated that curved sides of the hotel represent an exciting challenge for engineers and designers; floor by floor, the slope of the glass is changing, and so are the components of the reaction forces on the slab, the appearance of the glass, the safety requirements, amongst the others.
Construction of the onshore foundation started in October 2009. For all parts of the coastline (sites of "The Crescent City" and "The Crescent Place"), 691 short piles with a diameter of 1.2 m and a depth of 26 meters have been installed . For the tower “The Crescent city” 118 deep piles (diameter 1500 mm, depth of 52-61,5 meters) were constructed.
By November 2013, 4 taps had been installed on the site of "The Crescent Place". The first floors of the podium were appearing above the fence. The construction of the residential tower, "The Crescent Place", had been started.[citation needed] By the beginning of 2015, 35th floor of The Crescent Place Tower was being constructed.
By March 2014, the foundation of "Crescent City Tower" had been ready for concrete core pouring.[citation needed] As of beginning 2015, The Crescent City Tower was being constructed at 16-17 levels. In August 2015, the concrete core of the building reached up to the 30th level. By December 2015, the 43rd level of the concrete core of the Crescent City was completed.
According to a spokesman of Ilk Construction, completion of the shell and core of "The Crescent Place" is scheduled for January 2015; the site of "The Crescent City" must be finished by May of the same year. Completion of the entire project was planned for the second half of 2017 but as of February 2019, technical difficulties have prevented the completion of the arch section that will ultimately join the two towers. The completion date is currently estimated as late 2020.
As of 2024 it is open and only the outside is still being completed.

Slide away, and give it all you've got
My today, fell in from the top
I dream of you, and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now?
Hold me down, all the world's asleep
I need you now, you knock me off my feet,
I dream of you, and the thought of growing old
But you said please don't...
Slide in baby, together we'll fly
I've tried praying, but I don't know what you're saying to me
Now that you're mine
We'll find a way
Of chasing the sun
Let me be the one, that shines with you
in the morning, I don't know what to do
two of a kind
We'll find a way
To do what we've done
Let me be the one, that shines with you
And we can slide away, slide away, slide away, away...
Slide away, and give it all you've got
My today, fell in from the top
I dream of you, and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now?
Slide in baby, together we'll fly
I've tried praying, and I know just what you're saying to me
Although intended to stand vertically, the tower began leaning to the southeast soon after the onset of construction in 1173 due to a poorly laid foundation and loose substrate that has allowed the foundation to shift direction. The tower presently leans to the southwest.

Originally intended in 1972 to be a residence for A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder-acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), the plans evolved after Prabhupada's death in November 1977 for an ornate palace of marble, gold and carved teakwood, which was dedicated as a memorial shrine on September 2, 1979. Kirtanananda Swami, the leader of the New Vrindaban community, and Bhagavatananda das, the community's principal architect and sculptor, were the two primary forces behind its design and construction.
It reportedly cost $600,000 in materials, and the labor was donated by the devotees. The unpaid workers were often untrained and learned on the job.
Kirtanananda explained, "In the beginning, we didn't even know how to lay blocks. As our Krishna consciousness developed, our building skills developed, then our creativity developed, and the scope of the project developed."
Prabhupada's Palace of Gold opened in 1979 to positive reviews. CBS PM Magazine reported, "the magnificence of the Palace of Gold would be hard to exaggerate." Life magazine called the Palace "a place where tourists can come and be amazed."The New York Times proclaimed "Welcome to Heaven."The Washington Post called the palace "Almost Heaven."The Courier-Journal of Louisville stated, "It's hard to believe that Prabhupada's Palace is in West Virginia. In fact, it's hard to believe it's on this planet."
Beginning in the early 1990s lack of sufficient financial resources caused palace maintenance to be neglected.
The intended picture for today was supposed to be this one but I changed my mind at the last minute!
Although the intended has more of a subject and is more 'technical', at the risk of sounding pretentious, the above means more. Purely because I was in a very good mood when I took it and I'm usually a grumpy sod.
It still looks nice I think, I particularly like the darkness of the sky in contrast with the clouds and the framing of it.
I think I love clouds.

The Westland Lynx is a British Multi-Purpose Military Helicopter designed and built by Westland Helicopters at its factory in Yeovil, it was originally intended to be a utility craft for both the civil and naval use, military interest led to the development of both Battlefield and Naval variants. The Lynx went into operational use in 1977 and was later adopted by the armed forces of over a dozen nations, primarily serving in the battlefield utility, anti-armour, search and rescue and anti-submarine warfare roles. The Lynx was the world's first fully aerobatic helicopter and In 1986 a specially modified Lynx set the current Fédération Aéronautique Internationale's official airspeed record for helicopters. The Westland 30 was derived from the Lynx as a civil utility helicopter, however it was not a commercial success and only a limited number were built. In the 21st century, a modernised military variant of the Lynx, designated as the AgustaWestland AW159 Wildcat, as Multirole Combat Helicopter scheduled to enter service in 2014 and remains in production under AgustaWestland, the successor to Westland Helicopters.
The initial design (then known as the Westland WG.13) was started in the mid-1960's as a replacement for the Westland Scout and Wasp, and a more advanced alternative to the UH-1 Iroquois. As part of the Anglo-French Helicopter agreement signed in February 1967, the French company Aérospatiale were given a work share in the manufacturing programme. Aérospatiale received 30% of production with Westland performing the remainder, it was intended that France would buy Lynxes for its Navy and as an Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter for the French Army, with the United Kingdom in return buying Aérospatiale Gazelles and Pumas for its armed forces, the French Army cancelled its requirement for Lynxes in October 1969.
The original Lynx Helicopter design was powered by two Rolls-Royce Gem 2 turboshaft engines, and used many components derived from the Scout and Wasp. However, the rotor was new, being of a semi-rigid design with honeycomb sandwich blades. The first Lynx prototype took its maiden flight on 21 March 1971. In 1972, a Lynx broke the world speed record over 9 and 15 mile by flying at 199.9mph, it also set a new 62 mile closed circuit record shortly afterwards, flying at 197.9mph.
The British Army ordered over 100 Lynxes, designated the Lynx AH.1 (Army Helicopter Mark 1) for different roles, such as transport, armed escort, anti-tank warfare (with eight TOW missiles) reconnaissance and evacuation. The Army has fitted a Marconi Elliot AFCS system onto the Lynx for automatic stabilisation on three axes. Deliveries of production Lynxes began in 1977, an improved Lynx AH.1 with Gem 41-1 or Gem 42 engines and an uprated transmission was referred to as the Lynx AH.5, only five were built for evaluation purposes. The AH.5 led to the Lynx AH.7, which added a new tail rotor derived from the Westland 30, a reinforced airframe, improved avionics and defensive aids, these later received upgrades such as British Experimental Rotor Programme (BERP) rotor blades.
The initial naval variant of the Lynx, known as the Lynx HAS.2 in British service, or Lynx Mk.2(FN) in French service differed from the Lynx AH.1 in being equipped with a tricycle undercarriage and a deck restraint system, folding main rotor blades, an emergency flotation system and a nose-mounted radar. An improved Lynx for the Royal Navy, the Lynx HAS.3, had Gem 42-1 Mark 204 engines, an uprated transmission, a new flotation system and an Orange Crop ESM system. The Lynx HAS.3 also received various other updates in service, a similar upgrade to the French Lynx was known as the Lynx Mk.4(FN). Many different export variants based on the Lynx HAS.2 and HAS.3 were sold to other air arms.
In 1986, the former company demonstrator Lynx, registered G-LYNX, was specially modified with Gem 60 engines and BERP rotor blades, and on 11th August 1986 the Helicopter was piloted by Trevor Egginton when it set an absolute speed record for Helicopters over a 9 and 15 mile course by reaching 249.09 mph, an official record with the FAI it currently holds.

Went to Prompton State Park with my friend Kitty this afternoon. It was very windy and I had an Alienbee B800 boomed about 7' high with a large softbox, so that was nerve-racking. Other than the wind and the cold, i'd say this was the most fun, and successful shoot in a long time.
I originally intended to track most of Maple's "firsts" via Flickr and my blog, but then I decided it seemed a bit over-the-top. But this one begs to be blogged:
Her first scatalogical joke!
Yesterday, we were playing "feed babys", which means Maple tells me everything her baby doll eats and drinks while pretending to feed her. It's really cute, but usually it's just me and Maple when this happens. Yesterday, however, Maple was in a "show off" mood because her Grand Casey was watching.
"Maple, I asked, "what is your baby eating?"
"Baby eat cereal," she replied enthusiastically while pretend scoopins some from her pretend bowl and making pretend Babys (that is what she named her baby doll) chomping sounds.
"What else does your baby eat?"
Maple paused as a smile stretched from ear to ear.
"Poo poo!" Maple couldn't contain her laughter, and she stomped one foot while scanning me and her Grand Casey for a reaction. Of course, I couldn't help but laugh.
It was a special moment: my daughters First Poop Joke.
I intended to use a completely different photo today. But this was the last one I took, and it just had to be the one.
Little Violet.

The Bird of Prey was a black project aircraft, intended to demonstrate stealth technology. It was developed by McDonnell Douglas and Boeing in the 1990s. Funded by the company at a price of $67 million, it was a low cost program compared to many other programs of similar scale. It developed technology and materials which would later be used on Boeing's X-45 unmanned combat air vehicle. As an internal project, this aircraft was not given an X-plane designation. There are no public plans to make this a production aircraft. It is characterized as a technology demonstrator.
Every time we were here before, we missed the up to 4 groups of 43 people allowed to visit the Presidential and Experimental exhibits. This last time we arrived early in the morning and managed to sign up for the tour. Pictures taken during the wait in June 2009, while we watched the Bob Hope videos and walked around in the hangars.
A daytoni US Air Force Museumban tett eddigi látogatásaink során mindig lemaradtunk a Presidential and Experimental hangárról, ahova csak aznap reggeli feliratkozással lehet bejutni, igy mindig hamar megtelik a napi 4 maximum 43 fős túra. Most kora reggeli indulással ezt is sikerült megnézni.

EOP Commuter Bridge program is intended to help students build on their academic skills and assist with their acclimation to the university environment. During these six weeks, many of our EOP Commuter students relied on public transportation for their daily commute to CSUN, some traveling as far as East Los Angeles and South Central. The 1-2 hour commute during the summer can be especially grueling, but that did not stop them from promptly showing up to class every morning. Congratulations to our Commuter class! Your commitment to EOP and determination paid off this Summer!
I intended to do a bit brighter and perhaps more colourful FDT today, but the weather was very cloudy. So I pulled out the film camera again and loaded it with a very short roll of film, I had made and taken with me just in case I'd want to do a B&W thing again.
Originally intended in 1972 to be a residence for Swami Prabhupada, it eventually evolved into an ornate palace of marble, gold and carved teakwood. The natural sunlight through the stained glass crystals toys the mind with colorful rays.

Although we intended the rocket to travel east downrange, low TWR caused the nose to pitch up before the rocket could accelerate and spin up enough to maintain pitch, which sent it almost straight up over the launch pad, returning the payload just 356m to the north

The first Mazda to bear the Cosmo name (called the 110S on models intended for export) was (along with the NSU Ro80) one of the first production cars to feature a 2-rotor Wankel engine. A prototype was presented at the 1964 Tokyo Motor Show, one month before the 1964 Summer Olympics, and after the introduction of the NSU Spider at the Frankfurt Motor Show; 80 pre-production Cosmos were produced for the Mazda test department (20) and for dealership testing (60) between 1965 and 1966. Full production began in May 1967 and lasted through 1972, though Cosmos were built by hand at a rate of only about one per day, for a total of 1,176 (343 Series I cars and 833 Series II cars).
The Series I/L10A Cosmo was powered by a 0810 two-rotor engine with 982 cc of displacement and produced about 110 hp (thus the 110S name used in export markets). It used a Hitachi four-barrel carburetor and an odd ignition design—two spark plugs per chamber with dual distributors. A four-speed manual transmission and 14-inch wheels were standard.
The Series II/L10B was introduced in July 1968. It had a more-powerful 128 hp (95 kW)/103 lb·ft (140 N·m) 0813 engine, power brakes, 15 inch wheels and a 5-speed manual transmission. The wheelbase had been expanded by 15cm for more room and a better ride. This Cosmo was good for over 120 mph (193 km/h) and could accelerate to cover a quarter-mile (400 m) in 15.8 s.
Visual changes included a larger grille under the front bumper with two additional vents to each side of this "mouth". Only 833 were ever made, and fewer than six Series II models were initially imported into the United States.
After Hitler's October 1941 order to fortify the Channel Islands (as part of the Atlantic Wall), work began on a string of fortifications all around Jersey. Ho8 was intended to be a vast network of underground tunnels that would allow the German occupying infantry to withstand Allied air raids and bombardment (in preparation for an invasion). Forced labourers from the Organisation Todt (as well as paid labourers and skilled workers) were shipped in to Jersey and put to work building the complex. Many of the workers were Polish, French, Russian or Republican Spaniards. Conditions were terrible, although Russian and Ukrainian POWs were treated the worst, with cases of malnutrition, death by exhaustion and disease among them becoming common. On the other hand, the voluntary workers often had much better conditions, being offered over four times the wages that they would have earned working in similar jobs for the States of Jersey, and often receiving extra food rations.
In late 1943, with the threat of an Allied invasion of Europe (Operation Overlord) becoming clear, Ho8 was to be converted into a casualty clearing station and emergency hospital. The hospital had 500 beds for patients, with a full heating and air conditioning system (although the rest of the tunnel complex usually maintained a constant temperature of about 17 °C (63 °F), due to its being built deep into the hillside). A system of gas-proof doors was installed to maintain a clean airflow in the tunnels, and a fully equipped operating theatre was installed. Unfinished tunnels were sealed off.
Despite the huge preparations and fortifications made to the Channel Islands, none were ever utilised. The occupying forces in the Channel Islands surrendered on 9 May 1945 (one day after the rest of the German forces surrendered). Ho8 fell into disuse, with British soldiers and souvenir hunters stripping the tunnels of equipment.
For a service project intended to help teach the ladies the value of giving up your time to help others, they went to the Wa-Floy Retreat Center to help clear land for one of their projects. No smiles or muscles were injured in the photographing of this service project.

Intended for discos I think. Two versions, one is a mix the other radio version I think. The bonus was 'Be Bop'.
I can listen to their music all day and keep my elderly foot tapping.
Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum
The RF-84K was a reconnaissance and nuclear strike fighter that was intended to be carried toward a target as a "parasite" underneath the B-36 bomber. At the time, jet aircraft possessed relatively short range and aerial refueling was not feasible, so this provided a method to extend the aircraft's range.
The U.S. Air Force applied this parasite concept to the FICON (Flghter CONveyer) project, which became the RF-84K. The mission called for the reconnaissance aircraft or attack fighter to leave the carrier aircraft (a modified strategic bomber) upon reaching hostile territory, make a dash to the target and perform its mission. The aircraft then returned to the waiting carrier, hooked up underneath it and was carried back to a base.
In 1952, the USAF ordered 25 RF-84Ks and began modifying 10 B-36s into B-36 FICON carriers. The RF-84K design was a modification of the RF-84F, the USAF's most numerous and advanced tactical reconnaissance aircraft of the time. The only major differences were the RF- 84K's retractable hook in the upper part of the nose, rods on either side behind the cockpit, and downward angled horizontal stabilizers (to fit inside the B-36's bomb bay).
The RF-84K entered service with the 91st Strategic Reconnaissance Squadron in 1955. For the next year, pilots of the 91st SRS successfully flew their RF-84KS, but they experienced many near disasters while separating or hooking back up to the B-36 carrier aircraft.
By 1957, the development of more capable strategic reconnaissance aircraft, along with greater range provided by dependable aerial refueling, made the parasite aircraft concept obsolete. The 91st SRS's RF-84KS were transferred to other units flying RF-84FS and thereafter flew conventional missions from runways.

This urban intervention is intended to be closely integrated with the social and infrastructure systems of the Syracuse downtown (Montgomery Street). The main level is "contaminated" by street furniture and infrastructure, drawing parallels to the Salvation Army process machine on the lower level - the receiving, sorting, and distribution of donated items.
Original plans: ink on mylar.

EOP Commuter Bridge program is intended to help students build on their academic skills and assist with their acclimation to the university environment. During these six weeks, many of our EOP Commuter students relied on public transportation for their daily commute to CSUN, some traveling as far as East Los Angeles and South Central. The 1-2 hour commute during the summer can be especially grueling, but that did not stop them from promptly showing up to class every morning. Congratulations to our Commuter class! Your commitment to EOP and determination paid off this Summer!
I intended to buy only the dress set but the doll was included. :D
Sometimes, it is difficult to tell since Licca is quite reasonable price compared to other dolls. :)
