Smoke rises from a controlled burn of oil from the Deepwater Horizon wellhead on the water off the coast of Louisiana June 13, 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico. Sunday, June 13, Day 54 of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill that began with the April 20 explosion and fire on the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon, owned by Transocean Ltd. and leased by BP PLC, which is in charge of cleanup and containment. The blast killed 11 workers. Since then, oil has been pouring into the Gulf from a blown-out undersea well. Photo © Kate Davison/Greenpeace
Tell Congress: No drilling, no coal, clean energy now!

With an RMT strike on this day causing the independent freight lines by-passing Crewe to be closed, trains were passing through the station. The driver of Freightliner Class 70 No. 70016 opens up the power after approach control slowed him to a crawl before taking the junction to Manchester with 4Z20, the 10:30 Southampton MCT – Trafford Park intermodal on 3rd January 2023.

These controls were ran by people that operated a huge rolling mill at one time... But just like all controls, when they shut down permanently, companies close down and people's lives are ruined... Detroit, Michigan

Learn from the past,
set vivid, detailed goals for the future,
and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now.

It's 95 degrees in the shade outside. It must be something to do with the heat that prompted me to post this photo . . . it was either this, or one of me in a down parka freezing my tush off.
I wonder if the summer weather impacts our inhibitions. It's a time for shorts, miniskirts, summer dresses, sandals, tank tops . . . and masks. This little chemise seemed appropriate for the times.
I hope you're all staying safe . . and cool! :-)

Special:
- “Projet L”, designed by Robert Opron (his last) and Michel Harmand and named after the French acronym for air resistance coefficient (CD), the CX (claimed drag coefficient of 0-30) became a worthy successor of the famous DS.
- It was launched at the 1974 Paris Salon and won the Car Of The Year Award in January 1975.
- The powered steering system has a self-centring and speed-related “feel” with 2 1/2 turns from lock to lock instead of only two. The servo unit has been isolated from the steering itself and installed in the passenger compartment.
- All the instruments and minor controls are grouped on a binnacle which looks for all the world like a small, sectioned flying saucer hovering above the rest of the facia. The switches ranged round its edge are all within finger-reach of the steering wheel rim.
- The drum-type speedometer is rotating behind a magnifying porthole.
- The indicators, in Citroën tradition, are not self-cancelling.
- A single very large wiper blade, centrally pivoted, is sweeping the whole screen.
- The CX Series was assembled at the new Citroën factory at Aulnay-Sur-Bois (near Paris) - France and in Arica (Chile) and in Vigo (Spain).
- Often, the CX is called to be the "last true” Citroën before Peugeot took control over the company in 1974.
