From the first manned balloon flight in Philadelphia in the 18th century, to the space age, Mid-Atlantic Aviation is the story of men and women, such as: the Manufacturers...

William Piper, Sherman Fairchild, Giuseppe Bellanca, and Glenn Martin; Pioneers of Commercial Aviation...

Clifford Ball, Eddie Rickenbacker, and Harold Pitcairn; Innovators and Leaders...

The Mid Atlantic Air Museum was organized to ensure the professional stewardship of a collection that reflects the history of aviation and to enhance the public's appreciation and understanding of that history. The Museum's collection emphasizes the Mid-Atlantic region's unique contribution to

flight,but is broad enough to chronicle a general history of aviation, including military aviation. The Museum's collections are accounted and cared for according to established museum practices.

Historically accurate aircraft restoration and limited demonstration flying are special missions undertaken by the Museum. Interpretation of the collection is broad, with artifacts being exhibited in a context

that reflects not only the history of the object itself, but also the evolution of technology and the cultural environment in which it was used.

For those who are curious about the origins of the Pomona name - the Orkney Mainland was called Pomona on some very old maps - I found the following explanation on Wikipedia ...

In 8 man football, the field is only 80 yards long, so logically the 40 is the center of the field.

 

Just got finished with football camp this week, I'm both excited and nervous for my last year suiting up.

Older 1950s retail center along Stevens Creek Boulevard at Tantau Avenue that has managed to escape being redeveloped, for now anyways. The majority of this old center is vacant, so it's future is questionable.

...forgive me if this is too easy. Or if I have added too many photos to the pool in the past couple days.

This engagement occurred during the passage of Russian Convoy PQ13 during which HMS Trinidad had the misfortune to be a victim of her own torpedo.

After this action my father, aboard HMS Eclipse, was awarded the DSM.

 

He was extremely reticent concerning his wartime experiences, told me that he wanted to avoid nightmares. Concerning the DSM all he would tell me was that Eclipse suddenly ran into 3 German Destroyers, sank one, hit another and the 3rd ran away. That I am sure is honest to his Petty Officer perspective and memory at the time.

The awarding of medals he considered to be a matter of chance, many deserving men never being recognized. He told me he, a gun director, was awarded the DSM for hitting the enemy 'end on'. My father, along with many of his comrades, was prone to under-statement.

The Steamplex is a combination of a Simplex loco built by Motor Rail Ltd. in 1937. It was rebuilt by Alan Keefe Ltd with a vertical boiler from a Lake Windemere steam launch. Other engine parts came from an unknown source.

Anh ước một thảo nguyên đầy thịt chó

Một cánh đồng bát ngát lá mơ xanh

Một dãy Trường Sơn đầy sả ớt

Một cánh đồng ngút mắt riềng tươi

Một làng nghề mắm tôm thơm phức

Một dòng sông chứa đầy rượu pha cồn

Để nơi ấy tháng ngày anh tu luyện

Xa bụi trần và quên lãng bóng hình em!

Getting a good night’s sleep appears to be a lovely dream to many people, adolescents to older

adults. These groups of people do not get adequate sleep for many reasons, such as: rigorous school

or work schedules, exposure to blue light, and caffeinated drinks. Melatonin is a hormone naturally

produced in the body by the pineal gland that regulates our circadian rhythm which controls our

sleep schedule. Taking melatonin as a supplement has been used to improve sleep for around

twenty years, but has never been tested to see if it will improve or increase the lucidity of dreams.

Our experiment will test to see if taking melatonin increases the amount or lucidity of dreams that

occur at night and thus improving sleep as well.

Maggie and I spent an evening drinking a lot of champagne and writing postcards to no one in July 2007. This is so much better than that site where you email yourself in the future.

Panormous! 40% bigger than a large pan pizza. Take away menus through the letterbox No 112. February 2013. This menu got delivered with inbetween other non-takeaway flyers sometime in February and I only found it today whilst sorting out recycling.

"Sariwa" is the Tagalog word for "Fresh" (as in, freshly made, fresh ingredients, yo that shit is fresh). In Baybayin (Alibata), this would phonetically translate to "Sa-Di-Wa", as shown. This photo isn't about graffiti or tagging, rather, it's about the technique used to write the Baybayin characters called "flaring". Using your wrist and distance from the wall to control the size of the spray, one can achieving lines that go from fat to skinny using this technique. Also, with the utilization of a farther spray, a mist effect can be observed on the fatter end of the line to achieve a shadowy look.

 

But, like all things fresh, it eventually goes stale. In this case, it gets buffed (painted over). Immediacy living a life of impermanence. That's the true meaning of life.

 

All resemblance on the streets is purely coincidence. The owner of this Flickr account does not claim to have participated in the creation of the work in the photo. The Bathala Project is only in association through shooting, uploading and featuring the picture file.
