Counting the days - an apt message on the rear of Bedford YRQ Duple Dominant FBY 735 on the last day of Route Bus operation, 2nd July, 2011. This coach was originally registered OOT 267M and gave one of the rougher rides on Malta.
The wide rings beginning near Brent's finger indicate the years following the Columbus Day Storm of 1962.
I wanted to make something clean and simple for this song, to take a step back from the vivid coloring of the album/single covers.

Count Basie Theatre
Red Bank - Circa 1926; A Town Full Of Theatres Adds One More
Even though there were already several other theatres in the Borough of Red Bank, New Jersey by 1925 (including the Strand, Palace, Empire and Lyric Theatres), on July 29, 1925 the Red Bank Register reported that Joseph Oschwald of Little Silver had announced plans to build a theatre on Monmouth Street for a partnership of Joseph Stern of Newark, the Burns and Schaffer Amusement Co., and Walter Reade. Joseph Stern was already operating the Tivoli, Central, Plaza, Savoy and Regent Theaters in Newark, the Castle Theater in Irvington, the Lincoln Theater in Bloomfield, the Capitol Theater in Belleville and the Grand and Casino Theaters in Kearney. Walter Reade, for whom the Walter Reade Theatre at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City is now named, was already New Jersey's largest theatre owner, with ownership or an interest in thirty-one other venues in the state.
Projected to open eight months later on April 1, 1926, the new theatre would have seating for about 2,000 persons and be equipped for moving pictures, vaudeville and dramatic shows. The ninety foot by one hundred and ten foot theatre would include a wide lobby on Monmouth Street flanked by two storefronts, and a stage entrance for scenery via a ten-foot wide strip of land around the corner on Pearl Street. The noted theatre architect Thomas W. Lamb was reported to be drawing the plans for the new building, with an exterior of white terra cotta, and an interior finished in Old Gold and Red. The property and the rights of way for the land were purchased for $21,000, and the projected construction cost was $300,000 to $500,000.

Salisbury, England
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars
Governor Phil Murphy promotes the U.S Census count alongside Mayor Stack in Union City on Tuesday, September 22, 2020 (Edwin J. Torres/ Governor’s Office).
Hűvösvölgy, romos Heinrich-villa. Built in 1895 by Sándor Hauszmann. This was a summer villa of a count. It can be found not far from where I live in Budapest, in Buda Hills. Sadly it was socializated in the fifties by the communists, and was divided up of five flats. The situation is the same today, and the long-ago fine and elegant buiding is now in such a ruinous state as you can see from the photo. Decay could be beautiful but it's sad too.

Pictured here with her birth certificate, Tania, 14, was 10 when she left home due to an abusive father. While on the street a man approached her and told her about a Plan-supported Drop-In Centre. There are 13 DICs in Dhaka, looking after a total of 2,600 children. The centres also arrange for the children to get birth certificates. To date they have arranged for nearly 3,000 children to obtain birth certificates. Tania has picked up many skills such as embroidery work, block printing, cutting and sewing dresses. She now dreams of becoming a master tailor and potentially renting and running a shop to look after herself and her family.
Yesterday, 31st December, I took part in the 2007 Christmas Bird Count in the Sheep River/Turner Valley area, south of Calgary. The weather was an absolutely perfect winter's day! We saw quite a few of these little Mountain Chickadees, which is always a treat. They are uncommon year round in Alberta. This kind of Chickadee has a white eyebrow through the black cap, unlike the Black-capped Chickadee. It has a white cheek, black bib, grey upperparts and tail, and light grey underparts. It breeds at higher elevations and is found more commonly in the mountains, as the name suggests. Usually, though, they move down to the montane forests for the winter months. They are often found together with a group of Black-capped and Boreal Chickadees.
Species seen by my group of 7 people:
Ruffed Grouse-3
Rough-legged Hawk-3
Downy Woodpecker-11
Hairy Woodpecker-2
Pileated Woodpecker-1
Gray Jay-11
Blue Jay-8

Not so happy with this one...
Next time around there will be no numbers buried in dates or prices.

German students are raising awareness about the need to invest in birth registration – one fingerprint at a time!
The unique initiative calls on people in Germany to lend their support to Plan's Count Every Child work by donating a fingerprint.
Since November, Plan Germany's Youth Advisory Panel and Plan Action Youth Group have been running activities to collect as many prints as possible. The final display will be handed over to the German government as a kind of petition to call for the realisation of universal birth registration within effective, comprehensive and rights based civil registration and vital statistics systems.
Baby Nargis was born at 07:25 local time on 31 October, 2011, in Mall village in India's Uttar Pradesh state. Plan has chosen Nargis to symbolise the 7 billionth person born in the world. In an event held outside Lucknow, the capital of India’s most populous state of Uttar Pradesh, the newborn girl was given a birth certificate by the local administration. Plan India launched the Let Girls Be Born campaign in 6 Indian states to galvanise action to address the issue of female foeticide.
