The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.
CEA Project Logistics have a proven track record in specialised transport, one of our areas of expertise is Helicopter Transportation having completed several projects previously for the Sikorsky group and their Seahawk SH-60. This experience was a key factor when a new client chose our specialised transport services for several Agusta Westland AW149 medium class helicopters.
The Royal Thai Navy have ordered 5 Aircraft all to be delivered in 2017, CEA were employed to carry out all unloading at Laem Chabang Port and transportation to the Utapao Navy Base for assembly, after assembly the helicopters would fly to their new base in Northern Thailand to replace the Bell UH-1H helicopter.
The helicopters arrived at Laem Chabang Port A-5 on the NYK vessel Oceanus Leader. Each helicopter was shipped on a mafi-trailer with a bespoke fabricated saddle for the rear landing gear. Laem Chabang Terminal Tractors removed the helicopters from the Oceanus Leader positioning them next to the CEA 50 Tonne mobile cranes. Each helicopter was lifted from the mafi-trailer by a specialised hook attached to the main rotor, the five shackles of the hook were fixed to the main rotor by five lifting slings. The helicopters were lowered on to awaiting Air Ride trailers each fitted with a saddle for the rear landing gear.
Wooden chocks were placed on the front landing gear and lashing applied. CEA further secured the cargo with more two more lashing slings connected to the rings on either side of the fuselages. Other aircraft accessories were also loaded and secured. After each helicopter was lashed and secured the convoy began the 70km journey to the Royal Thai Navy base at Utapao, Rayong province.
A CEA escort vehicle was used throughout this specialised transport project to ensure maximum safety on the route to Utapao. Upon arrival at Utapao, the CEA teams removed the lashing allowing the 50 Tonne mobile cranes to lift the helicopters from the trailers using the same method as before and placing them in their respective hangers. Project duration from start to finish was 7 hours.

Daily. 6th - 28th February. 2009.
I've started a new project to customise an Olympus 35RC. The plan is to include a Konica Hexar AF style grip, new skin, smoothed top and bottom plates to remove the hotshoe, self timer lever, all logos and fit a new Leica M4 style film counter surround.
Another hot day in Christchurch. After the concert on the Archery Lawn (All Girl Brass Band) I wandered around the garden and got a few geocaches. I had searched for the one at this bridge and could not find it. I sat on a bench in the shade for a while before setting off for the next one. As I walked back to the bridge I spotted a young couple there. As I walked towards them the girl suddenly adopted the 'who, me? I'm just admiring the view' stance that is a dead giveaway to fellow cachers. I said "Don't worry, I'm not a muggle. Did you have any luck?" She told me that she had just put it back. Of course, that narrowed the search area for me and I found and signed it. It was a clever hide.

This is a screenshot of the website "Project Watch" that I never published. I wanted to track all of the transportation infrastructure projects going on in Chicago when Mayor Rahm Emanuel was elected and hired Gabe Klein to be the commissioner. The city wasn't tracking the projects, although they said they intended to.
Настал этот момент, который дожидались большинство любители авто-гонок на ПК. Авто «Project Cars», после переизданий, наконец-то выпустился. И я, любитель автомобилей, разумеется приобрел игру. Project Cars порадует Вас замечательным меню, разграниченным на четыре стороны, в их есть плит...
For some reason today just wasn't a day that allowed for much photography. At least I got a few frames shot. After clearing some new fallen snow off the driveway and sidewalk early this morning I did a photo of the front of our home with the Christmas lights still on and the morning sky just starting to get light.
