Inverkip Powerstation Control Room
The best control room out there? im sorry Battersea fans im leaning this way!
The oil fired station closed in the late 1980s having only been built a few years earlier. It only ran at full capacity for a few weeks during the 1986 mining strikes, otherwise it was a total white elephant! The 1970s oil crisis hit a matter of months after completion and rendered this brand new powerstation virtualy useless. Ever since closure it has been maintained as part of the strategic reserve but now demolition is relativly imminant parts are starting to be removed and systems disconnected.
The room feels new and un-used, Its one of the best time machines ive ever had the pleasure of riding, never going to foget this one!

In Barbados, the Zika Taskforce led by the University of the West Indies (UWI) is working closely with the Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA), PAHO and government ministries to pool resources for research, as well as organizing and disseminating information about the virus. The taskforce has also developed and implemented a comprehensive communications strategy to ensure that information about the virus and its effects are shared broadly with the Caribbean public via radio, television, newspapers, the web and social media platforms. There has also been a strong emphasis on community engagement and participation in the efforts to spread information about Zika and how each person can collaborate in the efforts to control and eliminate the Aedes aegypti mosquito at a local level.
If you want to print this out, pick the largest version flickr will let you get (they change it all the time it seems!), make sure the size comes up as 11cm square in whatever software you use to print it, then once it's done, check that the bit marked 1 inch actually is 1 inch.
The smaller WPI lines won't be completely accurate as the software I used to create them only allowed me to work to 3 decimal places, but they will be fine to use as a guide.

We have worked very hard to teach R "impulse control". At this moment, he wanted his dinner, and he wanted it NOW. But he's not barking or jumping (like he used to do). Rather, he's staring intently toward his dinner which was being prepared.
For these images I shot a roll of Fujifilm Superia 400 through my Pentax P3, then re spooled the film back into my Konica Pop.
The staged, Pentax shots were done to give a clear and focused background image, where as the candid Konica shots were done to add a sense of unorganised chaos to the top image.
" The Chained Library at Hereford Cathedral is a unique and fascinating treasure in Britain’s rich heritage of library history; there were books at Hereford Cathedral long before there was a ‘library’ in the modern sense.
The cathedral’s earliest and most important book is the 8th-century Hereford Gospels; it is one of 229 medieval manuscripts which now occupy two bays of the Chained Library.
The chaining of books was the most widespread and effective security system in European libraries from the Middle Ages to the 18th century, and Hereford Cathedral’s 17th-century Chained Library is the largest to survive with all its chains, rods and locks intact.
A chain is attached at one end to the front cover of each book; the other end is slotted on to a rod running along the bottom of each shelf. The system allows a book to be taken from the shelf and read at the desk, but not to be removed from the bookcase.
The books are shelved with their foredges, rather than their spines, facing the reader (the wrong way round to us); this allows the book to be lifted down and opened without needing to be turned around – thus avoiding tangling the chain.
The specially designed chamber in the New Library Building not only means that the whole library can now be seen in its original arrangement as it was from 1611 to 1841, but also allows the books to be kept in controlled environmental conditions according to modern standards of presentation.
There has been a working theological library at the cathedral since the 12th century, and the whole library continues to serve the cathedral’s work and witness both as a research centre and as a tourist attraction."

I took my daughter to a birthday party at The deep today. I was fortunate to have 3 hrs to myself so went for a walk around Hull's Marina.
This is the footbridge and control room over the River Hull that links The Deep with the town.

Two Trailways bus operators picket the terminal at 12th Street and New York Avenue NW April 15, 1969 after workers walked out over pension issues two weeks earlier.
The rival Greyhound terminal is seen across the street
A separate unit of dispatchers, clerks and other terminal personnel also went on strike.
The strike by 350 members of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1023 affected bus service between Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York.
The strike would last five months and resulted in increased pensions, but did not achieve a central demand of equal union control of the company pension plan.

The control room at Methil is awsomely complete. I could have spent hours in here.
Its quite cramped and unfortunalty it was also pitch black inside which makes photos difficult to say the least! It looks kind of plain with the beige panels and they seemed to reflect the light in horrible ways spoiling most of my photos... Its not as nice as Pyestock green or Battersea gold thats for sure but never the less a very interesting place..
