Our first visit to the Independence Seaport Museum in Philladephia. August 2012.
From Wikipedia:
USS Becuna (SS/AGSS-319), a Balao-class submarine, is a former ship of the United States Navy named for the becuna, a pike-like fish of Europe. Becuna (SS-319) was launched 30 January 1944 by Electric Boat Company, Groton, Connecticut, and commissioned 27 May 1944, Lieutenant Commander H. D. Sturr in command.
Becuna departed New London 1 July 1944 and arrived at Pearl Harbor 29 July. Her war operations extended from 23 August 1944 to 27 July 1945. During this period she completed five war patrols in the Philippines, South China Sea, and the Java Sea. Becuna is credited with having sunk two Japanese tankers totaling 3,888 tons.
The submarine arrived at Subic Bay, Luzon, from her last war patrol 27 July 1945. In September 1945 she arrived at San Diego, California.
Becuna received four battle stars for her World War II service.

Phillip (22), Formula 1 Motorsports Solutions Specialist: “In 2013 I began my apprenticeship as an electronics technician for devices and systems at RIEDEL. Since completing the program in 2017 I have been a Motorsports Solutions Specialist for the Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 team’s intercom and radio systems. At each race, I am initially responsible for the technical set-up of race control and all groups working in the pitlane. Then I set up and commission the communications system for Team Sauber. After that, my focus is on supporting the team and making sure everything runs smoothly. After each race, we immediately dismantle and pack our gear for the next race.
At RIEDEL, I particularly enjoy the friendly atmosphere – almost everyone knows each other – and the opportunity to travel around the globe.”
Near Chamberlain Square and the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
Barrier and booth near those former tram tracks.
Stop sign and an intercom.
From opening in 1978 motorists using the West Gate Bridge were charged a toll, that was paid at the toll booths at the city end of the bridge, at the current location of the West Gate service centres. The administration building was retained by VicRoads, until it was sold to property developer MAB Corporation in 2010 and then demolished.
Our apartment is a little dated.. as in from the early 1900's.
The intercom system has not been updated since then. So we have THIS thing next to the front door of our apartment..
The first time the faint ringer went off to signal that someone was outside the building, I was unsure what to do.
I picked up the little ear piece and fiddled with the switch on the buttom of the old fashioned phone thingie. I heard a faint crackling.. which seemed promising.
"Hello??"
I leaned over and spoke into the microphone thingie.
"Hello?"
Eric started laughing. I gave up and ran down the long narrow hallway to greet my friend at the front door of the building instead.
I guess the relic is pretty useless at this point. It's an interesting piece of history. An artifact from another Era.. I like to imagine what the original tenants looked like, what their story was. the family or person that lived here has probably long since passed away...
Question: Have you ever lived or do you currently live in an old building or house? What year was it built?

Remote Recording Network (RRN), Riedel Communications, TV Skyline, The Black Project, and 13 other partners collaborated in the production of a landmark virtual live event on Nov. 22-23 that brought together teams working remotely across four countries and three continents.
I was surprised to see such a worn out set of speaker/intercoms on a brand new building down Cardiff bay. I suspect the salty air has something to do with it.
My first picture uploaded to Flickr! ^^ Basically its a pic of my computer workstation at home. The Armadillo goes on the bed but I wanted to include it in this picture because its so snuggly! ^^ Between the printer and headphone/amp are my Roomba remote, 60GB iPod Video, digital watch, and car keys. The Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 is out for X3, a new game I just got into. The monitor is a 19" Dell Flat Panel Display (OK, this Dell item doesn't suck). As you can see my desk is positioned so that anyone walking into the room can't see my monitor. ^^
