Me and the certificate for the Frank Willison award that I received at the 10th International Python Conference.
We’re in the season of festivals and fairs in and around Seattle, and there’s a good chance you could well bump into this guy if you frequent them. He basically serializes improv sci-fi adventures for kids using his props and a picture frame acting as the tv screen, usually accompanied with the intro of the Bonzo Dog (Doo Dah) Band’s one-hit wonder of 1968, “Urban Spaceman” (www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGVwreJNWlk - little known trivia fact: it was produced by Paul McCartney) that reached #5 in the UK charts.
The Bonzo Dog Band is probably best known for starting the career of Neil Innes, who wrote songs for Monty Python and co-created (in spite of what Eric Idle may say) the Beatles spoof of the Rutles, and is probably the world's most underrated living tunesmiths. But the other talent in the band was the unjustly ignored Vivian Stanshall, a comic genius of the first order. Together with the rest of the Bonzos, Stanshall and Innes created a band that was like no other.

Benin. West Africa.
Ouidah
In most parts of the world snakes are feared, but in Benin they are revered. Royal pythons are worshiped in Benin, especially in Ouidah. The good news is that royal pythons are not dangerous, but the bad news is that these sacred reptiles are welcome Beninese households where they are fed when the doors of the temple are opened at night. There is no fear when the locals welcome these slithering pythons into their living rooms like an honoured guest.
The Temple of Pythons is a small room of twelve square meters that houses 50 adult royal pythons.
Contrary what one would think, this posting has nothing to do with the snake, it's the bridge (few details have been posted before).

Comme je n'avais pas noté le nom des espèces photographiées ce jour là, je suis dans le doute mais c'est peut-être un python de Seba.
PYTHON is a 21st century chair for cafes and restaurants, Internet cafes as well as for reception-rooms with a chair back that holds your jacket like a coat-hanger without it falling on the floor or beeing crumped
PYTHON’s special construction with enlarged thickness in the curve gives very high strenght to the chair making it suitable for regular usage in public spaces
PYTHON collection includes three chairs - PYTHON, PYT and stackable PYT bar chair. PYT has the same shape and construction but without the high back. It suits very well together with PYTHON and allows you to play with forms and colours in the interior.
Both - PYTHON and PYT - are offered also with upholstered seat pad
PYTHON collection is available in different natural wood veneers - birch, beech, maple, cherry, walnut, oak, zebrano, wenge. It comes clear lacquered or in wide range of stained finish as well as covered with matted white or black melamine

The python code I wrote for my Raspberry Pi / Pi Noir infrared camera.
The code tells the camera to show the preview, exposure is auomatic, and to take 5 pictures with a 5 second interval, giving each a unique name. In the interval, I (re)frame. I also included an Exif tag identifying me as the copyright holder.
