La lluvia no me impedirá inventarme algo, aunque me levante tarde y me pierda el chinchin de sol de la mañana y se la pase lloviendo toda la tarde, sacare mi cámara y buscare la forma de parar el tiempo con mi obturador maravilloso y mi visor que hace de mapa. No importa la circunstancia, siempre tratare de buscar la forma de inmortalizar un despacito de la realidad, aunque sea cortada ya que eso es lo que hago, cortar la realidad. Y mas ahora que he descubierto que aparte de cortarla también puedo hacerla un poquito mas clara de como la vemos en realidad, un poco mas fantasiosa pero encima de todo un poco mas bonita. Peeeeeroooo, la verdad es que estaba FEO el día de hoy fotográficamente hablando, aun así pude hacer algo decente a la chichi, la moto de mi viejo padre que se estaba pegando su aseada en tremendo aguacero. Y fui feliz, y mi cámara casi se ahoga.

The Spigot Mortar or ''Blacker Bombard'' was invented by Lieutenant-Colonel Blacker with the aim of providing cheap and easily produced Weapon after most of the British Army's heavy equipment had been lost at Dunkirk. It fired a 20lb fin-stabilised High Explosive Mortar Bomb propelled by black powder, and had an effective range of 100yds in its Anti-Tank Role and up to 450yds when firing a lighter Anti-Personnel Bomb. It had one major drawback in that when the Warhead hit its target, the fins would often fly backwards endangering the firing crew. The Spigot Mortar was a Weapon shunned by the Regular Army but was issued to the Home Guard in large numbers to protect bridges and other Strategic Locations. In its Static Defence Role, the Mortar was mounted on a Stainless Steel Pin (Pintle) set into a substantial base of reinforced concrete (Pedestal) This was in turn set within a camouflaged Weapons Pit to offer some protection to the three man gun crew. A portable mount was also available, but weighed around 350lb and took 3 men to move it.

Headmistress began in December 2008 when founder Jillian Wood had the brilliant idea of combining her life’s two passions: fashion and hunting birds for their feathers, then applying said feathers to one apparatus or another. Headmistress mania truly set in when Jillian moved to London, England in January 2009 and set up a stall at the Sunday Upmarket on Brick Lane, which she still maintains. It wasn’t long before Headmistress treasures garnered quite a following, and since then Jillian has had her work featured on fashion blogs, music videos and her line is carried by stores all over the world. As Jillian says "a feathered headband for every girl, and a girl for every feathered headband.” Jillian is now based in Toronto and is thoroughly enjoying being back in her home and native land.
Gates to the garden, 1996
Benjamin Tindall & Alan Dawson
Year of unveiling : 1996
The original double iron gates feature highly realistic rhododendron plants within a simple geometric frame. The vertical at the centre of each gate is supported by three horizontal brackets and is broken by a spray of rhododendron leaves, small flowers and buds, contained by a six-sided frame. Flanking this vertical are two slim rhododendron plants, each carrying four pairs of budding leafy twigs; a ninth set of leaves and buds emerging at the horizontal bar above, but contained by the topmost horizontal of the gate. Thus there are four 'growing' rhododendrons and two framed sprays.

Inside the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh
The Royal Botanic Garden is situated approximately 1 mile (1.5km) north of Edinburgh City Centre and a similar distance south from the shores of the Firth of Forth. The Garden is contained by walls or railings on all four boundaries, although the administration buildings of the Garden extend on its east side onto Inverleith Row. Georgian mansions partly line the eastern boundary and similar houses lie to the north and south of the Garden whilst Inverleith Park lies to the west. The Garden includes part of the former policies of Inverleith House. The site enjoys a low average rainfall. Natural soil conditions are alluvial sand but they have been modified to suit requirements in many areas of the Garden. The eastern side of the Garden is relatively level but the ground rises steeply to the hill on which Inverleith House stands, from which a magnificent panoramic view of the skyline of Edinburgh can be gained. The Garden itself is of only some significance in the local landscape since it can only really be seen from the surrounding roads.
The Royal Botanic Garden is laid out over a relatively square site which extends from Inverleith Row in the east to Arboretum Place in the west, Inverleith Place in the north, to Inverleith Terrace in the south. When first established on its present site in 1820, the site covered only some 14 acres (5.7ha). After 1845, the Garden began to expand; in 1876, 28 acres of ground around Inverleith House were purchased which completed most of the expansion of the Garden to its present size. Documentary map evidence of this development is provided by the OS maps of 1852 and 1933, and a detailed plan of the garden made in 1870. The addition of the area around Inverleith House enabled the view of Edinburgh to be incorporated as a feature of the Garden and it is generally considered today as one of the best locations from which a view of the City can be gained. The fine Plant Exhibition Houses are situated in the north- east of the garden and stand amid lawns with specimen trees which provide a setting for the buildings when viewed from the various points in the Garden...
The Royal Botanic Garden was established on its present site in 1820 although the history of the Garden goes back much further, to 1670. The plant collection expanded over the years and in 1820 a new larger site was chosen to the east of Inverleith House, under the direction of Professor Robert Graham, and curator William McNab. The transfer to the new 14 acre site took three years and it is to the credit of William McNab that little of the plant material died in the process. Macnab invented a transplanting machine for use in the removal of large trees.
The OS map of 1852 indicates the relationship on plan of the Botanic Garden with the adjacent policies of Inverleith; the house stood on the hill with a formal parterre on the flat ground adjacent to the south front. A belt of trees enclosed the house and garden and continued down the west drive before returning along the west boundary. Parkland lay to the north, south and east as far as the boundary of the Botanic Garden. In the south-west corner of the Park was an enclosure which appears to have been an orchard, kitchen garden and piggery. In 1864, the adjacent experimental garden of the Royal Caledonian Horticultural Society was transferred to the RBG and, in 1876, the remaining twenty eight acres of land around Inverleith House were acquired.
The next main period of expansion and development began after the appointment in 1888 of Isaac Bayley Balfour as Regius Keeper. In 1889, the Garden came wholly under the Crown. Improvements instigated by Sir Isaac Bayley Balfour, which involved the complete re-organisation of the plant collection have resulted in the garden which remains today. Glasshouses and accommodation were built for research and teaching.

In 2005, three former Paypal employees created a small video upload website titled "youtube.com." The site rapidly expanded and has become a huge part of our Internet usage worldwide. It spread music, clips of movies and tv shows, and other amateur content to anyone who would watch it, allowing anyone with a camera and an idea the chance for Internet fame.
