The paint on the ceiling, decades and centuries ago, allowed people in the labyrinths beneath Paris to see by candle light the way out. Nowadays, the peripheral passageways are blocked off, so there is no such risk, but before it was all one path among many.
For general info: Beneath Paris, where the limestone was harvested centuries ago, you will find the bones of an estimated 6 million dead--that's nearly triple the population of modern Paris. They are bones from all of the cemeteries of Paris, before the new ones will built at Montparnasse, Montmartre and Pere Lachaise. There were simply too many centuries of bones buried on too little land, so they began to place them underground, replacing the rock that they harvested to build the great stone monuments and epic buildings with the bones of those who worked and lived in the city. The location of these bones is known as the Catacombs, but some call them, The Empire of the Dead.
Basically, my job this week consisted of carrying about 65 monitors, 60 CPUS, 20 laptops, 20 printers and sundry other peripherals from the sixth to the second floor, recording their serial numbers, tagging them, and testing them one by one to see if they still can be recycled (and if not, disposed of).

George is just sitting by my feet while I'm reading the paper. He may not be watching me, but that ear knows everything I'm doing... right down to my lowering my camera with wide angle lens down to my foot and shooting in his general direction. He knows he doesn't have to look at me for that.
Gazania rigens (syn. G. splendens), sometimes called treasure flower, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, native to coastal areas of southern Africa. It is naturalised elsewhere and is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant.
Description
Gazania rigens is a spreading, low-growing, half-hardy perennial, growing to 50 cm (20 in) tall and wide, with blue-grey foliage and brilliant yellow, daisy-like composite flowerheads throughout the summer. It is a herbaceous plant that is perennial in South Africa and in the Mediterranean regions, and annual in the gardens of colder regions. It rarely exceeds 30 cm (12 in) and forms tufts, often very abundant. Its leaves all basal, numerous, narrow and more or less lanceolate, usually entire, sometimes pennatilobed. The obverse of the leaves is shiny green, the grayish white lapel.
Like all compounds, gazania flowers in flower heads that are often taken for simple flowers. The capitula are solitary at the end of peduncles just beyond the leaves. Each capitulum is formed by a central disc of tubular flowers, surrounded by ligulate peripheral flowers, whose color is very variable. The orange-yellow flowers are however the most numerous, often with black spots at the base of the ligules. The fruit is an achene, containing several seeds.
Naturalisation
Well adapted to the Mediterranean climate, it is native to South Africa and Mozambique. It has become naturalised on the Mediterranean shores, and in places like the Azores, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, France, Portugal, California, and Argentina. The generic name of the plant is dedicated to Theodore of Gaza (1398-1478), who translated the botanical works of Theophrastus, from Greek to Latin.[citation needed] It is a weed in the islands of Madeira, Sicily and Sardinia[citation needed].
In Australia, where it is known as coastal gazania, the species has become naturalised on coastal dunes and roadsides in the Central Coast and Sydney regions of New South Wales as well as the coast of South East Queensland. In South Australia it is found in the southern Mount Lofty area as well as on the Eyre peninsula.
Cultivation
Gazania rigens is grown for the brilliant yellow of its blooms which appear against blue-grey foliage in the late spring and throughout the summer. Plants prefer a sunny position and are tolerant of dryness and poor soils. Quite indifferent to the nature of the soil, it looks especially for the sun, its flower heads closing when it is in the shade or when the weather is overcast. It adapts well to drought, heat and strong sun, unlike many other flowers.
Flowering from March to October in the northern hemisphere, the flowers are however more numerous and larger in the spring. In temperate regions this plant is usually grown as a half-hardy annual, though it can tolerate light frosts.
Varieties
The currently recognised varieties are:
G. rigens (L.) Gaertn. var. leucolaena (DC.) Roessler. This variety has grey-white leaves. Its flower heads are yellow, typically without any basal eye-spots. It naturally occurs along the southern coast of South Africa, from Mossel Bay in the west, to Port Elizabeth in the east.
G. rigens (L.) Gaertn. var. rigens This variety is distinguished by its large 4- to 8-cm flower heads with yellow or orange rays, each with a basal eye-spot. It is only found in cultivation.
G. rigens (L.) Gaertn. var. uniflora (L.f.) Roessler This variety has leaves that are smooth and green on their upper surface. Its flower heads are yellow, typically without any basal eye-spots. It naturally occurs along the east coast of South Africa, from Knysna in the west, to southern Mozambique in the east. Where its range overlaps with that of G. rigens var. leucolaena, the two varieties often grow alongside each other.

Weird animal, able to see backwards but stupid enough that you can have ostrich races - sit on its back, use the neck as a joystick. Or so I've heard.

Not the cheapest for the card reader (NT$370 [$11.50] vs NT$330 somewhere else), but decent pricing on the other peripherals. NT$520 (~$16) for the USB Wifi adapter, and NT$250 (~$8) for the ethernet adapter.
Note, that this particular card reader not only does every single type of memory card (including SDXC), but also has a SIM card slot and also a smart card reader, which apparently includes reading of iCash and potentially other types of smart cards? Will have to try stuff out.
