Tiny wasp nest - a find on the curtain track

Gezien in techniekmuseum Oyfo Hengelo

The interactive Technology Museum is about what technology means in life. In the old factory of the Hazemeijer it is all about steam engines and smartphones, robots and art and energy sources and the planet. In short, everything about people and technology.

It was the end of the roaring twenties, and the country was not engaged in any wars, and people were enjoying a period of apparent prosperity. But, that all ended in the fall of 1929. On October 29, 1929, called Black Tuesday, when investors traded some 16 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange in a single day. The crash, which followed the London Stock Exchange's crash of September, signaled the beginning of the Great Depression.

But, prior to that devastating event life for many was good, and the young movie industry was flourishing around the country. "Movie Theater Palaces" were being constructed throughout the big cities and smaller cities alike. Warner Brothers Studio had hired Thomas W Lamb, a Scottish immigrant and renown architect who specialized in designing elaborate theaters. Lamb's beautiful work dotted the countryside with prior examples found in San Francisco, Boston, and New York City.

The Warner Theatre was built in Torrington, CT as a first-run movie palace by Warner Bros. Studios. This elaborate art-deco building's opening in August, 1931, was a statewide event attended by then-Governor Wilbur Cross and many other dignitaries. Seating 1,772 patrons, the Warner was a stunning example of state-of-the-art technology and lush, elegant surroundings.

Macro on budget with a 35mm. This wonderful Hoya +4 multi-coated filter made my day. It magnifies +4 steps. It costs only €15 FYI.

Crazy Tuesday.

One bulb one flash.

Lens - My favorite technology! :)

Went back to the car to get my mini tripod I forgot to bring with me on my walk at Irvine, spotted this Seagull on the lampost, and quickly snapped it with my 35mm Pentax ME Super and Pentax 50mm lens.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. These two people caught my eye, both cradling their phones and both watching an enormous Scottish Independence March go by on the street. Enjoy!

Crazy Tuesday : Vintage Technology

The ZDVSC 09 at Emory, Utah on Aug. 9, 2019.

The biggest security risk in any system is the user.

 

"Hundreds of Westminster insiders were added to - and then deleted from - a WhatsApp group set up by shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick to promote his London Marathon run".

 

In this day and age there should be minimum level of competence with technology to gain access to any position of power or trust, (especially after the U.S "signal app" fiasco).

  

(As we old techies used to say the problem is "BTKAC" between the keyboard and chair).

  

The BBC has been told Jenrick is not referring himself to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), which investigates data breaches. (What a surprise!).

Previously unpublished shot captured on Saint Patrick's Day, 17th March, in 2018.

 

As Ireland won the Six Nations Rugby yesterday I imagine there are a few extra sore heads across Ireland and beyond today too.

 

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you if you're Irish or of Irish descent. Enjoy!

Technology has changed our life quite a bit over the last decade. With messages supporting more features like voice, images and even video than text only, even our seniors could take some good advantages

Hi folks, thanks for all the comment.

Interesting support structure at the top of Zugspitze.

Artful, the third of the Royal Navyâs new Astute Class attack submarines has arrived at her Scottish base port from where she will carry out sea trials before entering service later this year.

 

The 7,400-tonne Artful left BAE Systems construction yard at Barrow-in-Furness in Cumbria several days ago before sailing to her new home at Her Majestyâs Naval Base (HMNB) Clyde. She will provide the Royal Navy with the most technologically advanced submarine Britain has ever sent to sea.

 

HMNB Clyde will become a home for the Royal Navyâs submarines and associated support by 2020, creating a submarine centre of specialisation.

 

The base is amongst the largest single-site employers in Scotland, with 6,700 military and civilian personnel, increasing under current UK Government plans to 8,200 by 2022.

 

Defence Minister, Philip Dunne, said:

 

âThe arrival of Artful to HMNB Clyde clearly shows that the UK Government is firmly committed to the future of defence in Scotland, this is the latest addition to what will be the home of all Royal Navy submarines by 2020.

 

âThe Astute submarine programme is a key part of our £163 billion equipment plan which has been bolstered by the commitment to increase defence spending and meet the NATO pledge of two per cent of our national income for the rest of this decade.

 

âThe Astute Class are amongst the most advanced submarines operating in the world today and provide the Royal Navy with the capability it needs to defend UK interests at home and overseas.â

 

Chief of Materiel Fleet, Vice Admiral Simon Lister, said:

 

âI am delighted that Artful has arrived at her home port to prepare for operations as this marks a key milestone in the Astute class submarine programme.

 

âThe build of the first two Astute Class submarines has taught us many lessons. Artful can soon begin operations as the newest submarine in the Royal Navy.â

 

Featuring the latest nuclear-powered technology, Artfu
