The Rolex Learning Centre ("EPFL Learning Centre") is the campus hub and library for the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Lausanne, Switzerland. Designed by the winners of 2010 Pritzker Prize, Japanese-duo SANAA, it opened on 22 February 2010.
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, partners of the Tokyo-based design firm SANAA, were selected as the lead architects in EPFL's international competition of December 2004. The team was selected among famous architects and even some Pritzker Prize Laureates such as Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Herzog & de Meuron, Ábalos & Herreros and Xaveer De Geyter.
The construction took place between 2007 and 2009. It cost 110 million Swiss francs and was funded by the Swiss government as well as by private sponsors (Rolex, Logitech, Bouygues Construction, Crédit Suisse, Nestlé, Novartis and SICPA).
The building opened on 22 February 2010 and was inaugurated on 27 May 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolex_Learning_Center
Into the distance a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast how
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Friction lock, set
Mixtures, rich
Propellers, fully forward
Flaps, set, ten degrees
Engine gauges and suction, check
Mixture set to maximum percent, recheck
Flight instruments
Altimeters, check both
(Garbled word) - on
Navigation lights, on
Strobes, on
Confirm three-eight-echo ready for departure
Hello again, this is now 129.4
129.4, it's to go
You may commence your takeoff, winds over ten knots
Three-ieght-echo
Easy on the brakes, take it easy, its gonna roll this time
Just hand the power gradually, and it
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Learning To Fly
Tom Petty
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Myself and my mate Ian have been waiting for fog for some time now at Chipping Norton. Missed it yesterday because it wasn't forecast, but nabbed it this morning! YAY!!! This is a 7 shot Panoramic.More shots to come from this morning later. Hope you like "Learning To Fly". Mike
they actually chase each other away but as long as they can't see each other they are fine. just like people.
Yesterday a drove a route that I don't normally and came across this mural on the back of the Sheboygan Area School District's central office building. I like finding vibrant street art and try to preserve them in photos.
While schools are important in a child's learning, moms play an important part in that process as well. Happy Mother's Day to all!
Just doing a few jumping shots with Ms. Monnie & Aj ,';0]...
Don't think Ms. Monnie quite got the hang of it as she never really took off!
Aj tried to hold her hand, I thought it was sweet.

where you can't find school and children.

Like a bicycle for kids with its two extra wheels, or like a baby owl afraid to jump out of its nest and fly for the first time, this MIG plane is gathering confidence until a boost takes it far away in Kyrgyzstan's sky.
i finally installed adobe photoshop cs yesterday and i decided to re-learn how to use photoshop. About this photo, i had uploaded before with less processing. This time, this picture had been through 3 kinds of processing.
HDR. This picture was taken when i got a task from my photography lecture to take 3 exposures. At that time i didnt have tripod, so i think you can see there's something wierd on the tree leaves. I was using photomatix for the HDR, the trial. lol. I had to retouch to hide 'photomatix' watermark. Grrr annoying trial version. But i have cs5 now. no need HDR trial. :D
Then i edited the colors using Adobe Bridge. I learned from youtube (i love technology!)Click here to see the tutorial.
The last thing. Then i opened this picture on PSD to add the vintage tone. Again i learned it from youtube (i shouldnt have learned photo processing because the next day, which is today, im gonna have my last day of midtest at 1 pm lol). Click here to see the tutorial. and press 'L' :)
Have a nice day everyone :D
We went to a small zoo in Bowmanville, Ontario. During the show they brought out these darling lion cubs (3 months old). They were so cute we just wanted to take them home!
We also learned the difference between the "big" cats (lion, tiger, panther) and the small cats ... the roar! Big cats can roar, but not purr ... smaller cats can purr, but not roar. There's your animal lesson for the day.

I thought a beer had finally been named after me, but closer inpsection proved otherwise. (See the one on the right)
A "cold snap" has descended on Brisbane, but the Sunday morning here is cloudless so sunny, and as soon as the ice melts it will be a lovely day.
Imagine these copper coils as my neck perhaps.
