The wraps have come off London’s largest ever urban art work, a vast mural on two sides of a six-storey building in King’s Cross.
Four street graffiti artists worked for three weeks to create the geometric design on the outside of a block on the corners of Euston Road and Belgrove Street.
The artists — London based Remi/Rough, Edinburgh’s Steve More, LX.One from Paris and LA-based Augustine Kofie — used 160 litres of spray paint and 150 litres of emulsion.
Mark Wilkie, of design agency The Narrative, which organised the project, said: “We wanted to celebrate everything great about this urban environment.”
The work was commissioned to mark the opening of a new “urban diner” in the building called Karpo.

Cutler-Hammer brand electrical panel box with an asbestos-paper lining adhered on the inside surface of its door. Although similar in appearance to certain types of asbestos materials, some other components inside the panel are non-asbestos, consisting of ceramic composite (light grey and dark grey) and black plastic molded pieces.
These are a set of simple images where the impact comes mainly from the use of a particular colour combination.
Again the use of a red and green combination on a white background with control of DoF help this image work

Barkhane : l’opération Floréal, interdire toute liberté d’action aux groupes armés terroristes
Du 10 au 21 avril 2016, la force Barkhane a mené une opération de contrôle de zone dans la région de Kidal, afin d’accentuer la pression sur les Groupes armés terroristes (GAT) et entraver leur liberté d’action. En s’attaquant à leurs lieux de refuge et de transit, Barkhane affecte durablement leurs capacités de combat dans le Nord Mali.
L’opération baptisée Floréal a mobilisé plus de 300 soldats de la force Barkhane avec pour but de sécuriser cette région essentielle pour le contrôle du Nord Mali, que tentent de déstabiliser les GAT.
Le 12 avril, dans la première phase de l’opération, un Sous-groupement tactique désert (SGTD) en provenance de Gao est arrivé à Kidal, pour rejoindre un autre SGTD qui y menait des actions depuis plusieurs semaines, en coordination avec la MINUSMA. Appuyés par les hélicoptères, les drones et les Rafale du sous-groupement aéromobile, les deux SGTD ont mené des patrouilles dans et autour de Kidal, de jour comme de nuit.
Le 16 avril, un SGTD a effectué une mission de reconnaissance jusqu’à Rharous, où des éléments avaient été héliportés pour surveiller la zone, avant de poursuivre le lendemain en direction de Tin Essako, un village situé à 160 km à l’est de Kidal. Il s’agit là d’un secteur qui constitue un important axe de transit entre le Mali et le Niger, emprunté par les GAT pour étendre leur influence dans la région, en intimidant la population et en menant des actions contre les forces internationales. Pendant plusieurs jours, la force Barkhane y a mené des missions de reconnaissance et de contrôle de zone, avant de retourner à Kidal, où le second SGTD a poursuivi ses actions en parallèle.
Par ce type d’opération, la force Barkhane entend ne laisser aucun répit aux GAT. Elle est en mesure de déployer rapidement un volume de forces conséquent dans n’importe quelle zone pour entraver la liberté d’action des GAT. En s’inscrivant dans la durée, la présence de la force Barkhane dans la région de Kidal a considérablement perturbé l’action et les réseaux des GAT.
L’opération Barkhane compte 3500 militaires dont la mission, en partenariat avec les pays du G5 Sahel, consiste à lutter contre les groupes armées terroristes pouvant agir dans la bande sahélo-saharienne.

The cab controls for a new AutoCat semi-automated side loader refuse truck made by Wayne Engineering. The AutoCat is great for small urban routes, picking up missed stops, and spread out rural routes.
Second day of competition. Spent another sunny day shooting enjoying these guys giving their all. Great competitors.
An amazing soccer player. This young man would never panic, made great passes, and controlled the play. One of the smartest players I've seen in a long time.
Pour contrôler au mieux l’écoulement de couche limite sur une plaque plane, un soin particulier doit être porté au bord d’attaque de la plaque. Ce profil a été usiné, poncé et poli par Phyling, pour permettre à une étude de couche limite de faire des observations plus pertinentes
C’est la start-up Phyling qui a réalisé les plans et procédé à l’usinage de la plaque à partir d’une plaque de plexiglas aux bords droits. Antoine Dode , doctorant au Ladhyx utilisera cette plaque dans une expérience de mesure de vitesses des couches limites dans la transition laminaire-turbulent de la couche limite.

The fog you see in the photo was actually from a control burn they did in Jonathan Dickinson State Park the day before. It was very early in the moring and the sky was full of color. I had to stop and shoot this perfect opportunity.
I helped give a tour of Mission Control today.
This photo appears in a children's encyclopedic book called "Mission to the Moon" published by Weldon Owen. Pretty cool... I'm pubished!!

TV Remote Control in the circles of Secular Jews seem ubiquitous as a Mezuzah for Orthodox Jews
Each Mezuzah contains the parchment of Hear O Israel... with the TV Remote Control Israel may Watch TV as well as Hear it.
Fewer light-up buttons and switches than Apollo Mission Control, and more Dells and HPs. :P
I like how there's both a map of the ISS in the center and live-generated 3D models for visualization. The screen of text on the right is a log of commands sent to the ISS.
Above that are the all-important timers for next LOS (Loss of Signal) and AOS (Acquisition of Signal). As the ISS flies around the world, it sometimes goes through dead zones where Mission Control loses contact. Whenever LOS happens, everyone in Mission Control runs to the bathroom, basically. :D (Or gets a snack, or whatever.) Then they hurry back before AOS.
Lawn Tennis Championship of Australia 1905 trophy
Slazenger Cup
Awarded to Jack Crawford in 1933. This was his third straight win in the championship.
In 1904 the UK Slazenger company donated the Slazenger Cup to become the major trophy for the inaugural Australian Open to be held in 1905.

Jack Crawford
1908–1991
‘Gentleman Jack’ and ‘The Perfect Gentleman of the Courts’ is how his contemporaries described Jack Crawford. His classical style of play was relaxed, effortless and graceful, demonstrating control and accuracy from the back of the court. He always wore long cream flannels and a long-sleeved shirt on the court and played with a flat-top racquet. In a long match he liked to have a pot of tea, with milk and sugar, and extra hot water, available by the umpire’s chair. He was described as ‘the coolest player who ever stepped on a court’.
John Herbert Crawford was born in Albury in 1908. His home was at Urangeline, about 80 kilometres from Albury. Soon after the family moved to Sydney, Jack’s star began to rise on the Australian tennis scene. He was first selected for the Davis Cup in 1928 and went on to play in 1930 and 1932–37, and was a team member in 1939.
He married Marjorie Cox, and together they won three Australian mixed doubles titles. In 1933 he almost won something that didn’t yet exist, the Grand Slam. That year he won 16 tournaments, beginning with the Australian title. He next won the French championship, becoming the first foreigner to win after it was opened up to international players in 1925.
The Wimbledon final between Crawford and Ellsworth Vines has gone down in history as one of the best ever seen, with Jack winning after almost four hours. He jumped the net to shake hands with his opponent, something he had never done before and never tried again. In the stands the crowd went wild and Marjorie fainted. Officials were afraid the court would be invaded.
There were many stories told about Jack and Marjorie, including the one about his well-worn cream flannels. Those trousers had carried him to 12 consecutive victories, but on the morning of the Wimbledon final, they were still in the hotel laundry. In typical style, Jack went to the laundry himself to explain his problem and they were ready soon after. As winner at Wimbledon in 1933 he received a gold medal, life membership of the All England Club and a £10 money order, with which he bought Marjorie six fruit plates. ‘I cannot tell you how much I appreciated the cable of congratulations which I received from the Shire of Lockhart and residents… I have to play in America, and then home again,’ he wrote home.
By the time he arrived in New York for the US Championships, Jack had been away from home for almost five months and had won 13 straight tournaments. He was fatigued and would have preferred to skip America, but had no choice other than to play. The final was against Fred Perry. As an asthmatic, Jack suffered in the muggy heat. During a break in the game, Perry showered and changed his clothes; Jack stayed courtside, sitting in his sweat soaked clothes. Unbeknown to Jack, a friend had spiked his usual cup of tea with bourbon as a pick-me-up. It didn’t help. Before the intermission Jack Crawford had led, but a refreshed Perry came back to seal the title. Always a gracious sportsman in victory or defeat, Jack never made excuses for his losses. He continued to play tennis, and to win. His success in the 1935 Australian Championships was his tenth straight major final, a record matched only by Roger Federer.
Jack retired from tennis in 1951. In 1979, he was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame, but it was not until 1997 that he was inducted into the Australian Tennis Hall of Fame. During his career, he won 17 singles, doubles and mixed titles from 32 Grand Slam finals and was a proud Davis Cup representative for ten years.
Jack Crawford died in September 1991, aged 83.
Diefenbunker: Canada's Cold War Museum
MESSAGE CONTROL CENTRE
Coded messages would have flooded into the Bunker during a nuclear attack. Throughout CFS Corp's operational years during the Cold War, the Message Control Centre (MCC) had to sort them quickly and accurately.
Staff at the MCC logged, processed, duplicated, and distributed all incoming and messages. They also had to ensure outgoing messages were authenticated and formatted before transmission. Even small errors could be catastrophic in a crisis.
Five staff members per shift handled outside messages, as well as the internal message system within the Bunker.
Notice the pass-through slot in the wall-cryptographers in the next room were ready to decode incoming messages and encode those being sent out.
