Hey you! You didn't know that you can now follow my street work at my secondary Tumblr blog www.tumblr.com/blog/smilefromthestreetsyoushoot, did ya? Amazing, isn't it.
Ok, you go now, enjoy it, why not? Of course you will. I know, you know it.

You can see the Chisos Basin development center below - lodge, restaurant, store, post office, campground, utility buildings, and such.
Well, I'm proud to announce that the code is about 1000 lines of PHP, CSS and HTML today and it still needs to grow more and more.
I'm glad of my progress with the website and you should see the progress with the core--we have so many amazing things in the works.
PS: I still need to put the AJAX stuff.

The USAID Signature Event highlighted the strategic and transformational partnerships through which the global community can end extreme poverty, complete the unfinished business of the MDGs, and achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Complemented by a “Marketplace for Entrepreneurs and Innovators,” the event featured presentations from USAID partners who have achieved ground-breaking results (or who have shown the potential to achieve transformational results) and individuals who have benefited from these partnerships.

The Churchill had a difficult birth in 1940, followed by a troubled development and nearly suffered a premature death in 1942 before maturing into a useful tank. Some specialised versions remained in service with the British Army until 1965.
The Churchill had its origins in the A20, designed by the shipbuilders, Harland & Wolff. This tank was intended to support infantry on a battlefield dominated by trench warfare. The prototype proved to be unsatisfactory when it appeared in February 1940.
The first production tanks, (Churchill Mark I), were delivered in June 1941. In some respects the design was old-fashioned with its wrap-round tracks and hull-mounted 3-inch gun. A small turret carried the British 2-pdr tank gun. More seriously, the new tank was very unreliable. However it carried very thick armour on the front of the hull. The new tanks were the first to be fitted with the Merritt-Brown gear box that provided controlled differential steering.
By 1942 the War Office had decided to abandon the Churchill because of its unreliability. A major effort by the manufacturers and the Army improved its reliability and the tank was reprieved after demonstrating its usefulness during the fighting in the hills of Tunisia in 1942-43. The first German Tiger I to be captured by the Allies was disabled in combat with Churchill tanks of 48th Royal Tank Regiment. This Tiger is now owned by the Tank Museum.
The Churchill design was extensively modified in 1942-43 and a new turret was fitted mounting the British 75mm tank gun. Although this gun was inferior to the German long 75mm and 88mm guns, with its thick armour the Churchill Mark VII, introduced in November 1943, became a useful tank. It served with British troops in North West Europe and Italy.
The Churchill was designed to fit within the British rail loading gauge. As a result the hull was too narrow to accommodate the larger turret needed to mount the British 17-pdr tank gun. Thus the Churchill VII was inadequately armed when compared to other late war tanks.
One of the Churchill’s strengths was its adaptability to specialised roles such as flame-throwing, bridge-laying and mine-clearing. It was especially useful as the basis of an armoured engineer vehicle, the Churchill AVRE, (Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers). Many of the specialised vehicles were developed by the 79th Armoured Division and were known as ‘Hobart’s funnies’, after the Division’s commander, Major General P C S Hobart.
Churchill gun tanks disappeared from the British Army quite quickly after World War II, but a small number of gun tanks and Crocodiles served with 7 RTR in Korea in 1950-51. Post-war developments of the AVRE and bridge-laying tanks remained in service with the British Army until the 1960s. A few Churchill gun tanks lingered in service with the Indian, Irish and Jordanian armies until the late 1960s.
In all, 5,640 Churchill tanks were manufactured. Small numbers of 6-pdr armed Churchills were supplied to the Soviet Union in 1941-42. Churchills also served with the Canadian Army, taking part in the disastrous Dieppe raid in 1942.
The Tank Museum’s Churchill above is the last Mark VII to be built and came to the Museum straight from the factory, so it is effectively brand-new, with almost no mileage on the clock. It is modified as a Crocodile flame-thrower and is displayed in the markings of the 34th Armoured Brigade in Normandy in the summer of 1944.
The background this picture was taken against wasn't great, so have some edited-in bricks instead.
Change is afoot on the Toton Lane to Nottingham park and ride service, since the temporary allocation of mostly double deckers (for social distancing) can be eased off slightly and various members of the RB fleet fill in while the branded vehicles receive attention, with a couple being off the road at any given time. The first of these was 28, now back in traffic on the P&R in its updated livery so now the other buses can have their turn at being repainted.
Reduced PVR:
Although there are six buses branded for the park and ride, a revised timetable sees the same level of service (every 10 min departures with a small amount of recovery time at Toton Lane) but with a PVR of five buses, completely cutting out one of the service boards because a few months ago I sat up all night devising an ingenious new timetable. There are five boards Monday to Saturday and three on a Sunday, so having six branded buses is a massive overkill; four, maybe five would be better.
New Livery for the Darts:
Because I tried to paint all six P&R buses in 2017/18 at the same time, it ended up taking ages and the paint finish was pretty rubbish across all of them. Also I'm a bit sick of the livery now, only having lime green at the front and looking generally uninspired. Because I ideally want to get some more double deckers for the P&R and oust at least three of the Darts onto the 201/211 I wanted to change the livery so it looked better for the P&R but could also be repurposed without me having to repaint them all again.
Repainting 28:
28 is the first Dart to be painted into the revised livery, which isn't too much of a drastic change from the previous one but different enough. The most important part is that I got the finish far better than before, so the whole thing looks neater. Unfortunately I managed to sand off most of the front detail so it looks rather flat... hopefully I won't end up doing the same to the other three. I eventually decided the headlights I painted on looked too rectangular, so I've changed them slightly since this photo and now 28 looks far more like an SLF Pointer. (with the 'rectangle' lights it looks almost like a Mercedes O405!)
Repainting 27 and 31:
Next to be pulled from service is 27, which I'm currently in the process of repainting. 31 wasn't meant to be done until after the Darts, but I had a closer look at it and thought it looked so bad I needed to fix it immediately, so that's being painted at the moment too. I just didn't like the idea of the revised P&R livery on the double deckers, so it's staying in the original P&R livery for now. What I do with it in the future I can worry about when I get to that stage.
Potential for New Buses:
As good as they are, the Darts are a bit of a compromise on the P&R since they are rather small for the job they have. The P&R could really do with a 100% allocation of deckers, but the existing double deckers in the fleet are a bit of a motley collection and, besides, none of them are Euro 6; unlike the Darts with their retrofitted E200 engines. I thought it wouldn't be too impossible to find four - five at a push - double deckers this year to completely renew the P&R fleet, enabling the six buses you see here to be cascaded off to other interesting developments on the RB network.
Of course this relies on some bus/model shows taking place and then me actually getting to them... and then them having models of low floor deckers for sale that aren't £25+ apiece. Hold on, this is sounding less likely by the minute.
In The Meantime:
For now the P&R is mostly back to normal, with 25/6/8/9 on it (providing they aren't breaking down that day) and the 5th board being covered by just about anything Enviro-Dart sized or bigger... 8 the ALX500, 14 the B7 Artic and 20 the BYD electric have all filled in although more commonly it's either 12, 16 or 30. Since going back to normal, the P&R hasn't seen either of the Excels again... yet. When 27 and 31 are finished I'll move on to the other two Darts, then 29 providing I don't change my mind again like I did with 31. Hopefully by then I'll have figured out how viable my "buy 4 or 5 double deckers" plan is and maybe even got some of them! Who knows?
(I mean I really do have a load of things planned for RB which pretty much hinge on me replacing all the current P&R fleet with new deckers.)

"Calligraphy (from Greek κάλλος kallos "beauty" + γραφή graphẽ "writing") is a type of visual art related to writing.
Islamic calligraphy (calligraphy in Arabic is Khatt ul-Yad خط اليد) has evolved alongside the religion of Islam and the Arabic language. As it is based on Arabic letters, some call it "Arabic calligraphy". However the term "Islamic calligraphy" is a more appropriate term as it comprises all works of calligraphy by the Muslim calligraphers from Morocco to China.
Islamic calligraphy is associated with geometric Islamic art (arabesque) on the walls and ceilings of mosques as well as on the page. Contemporary artists in the Islamic world draw on the heritage of calligraphy to use calligraphic inscriptions or abstractions.
Instead of recalling something related to the spoken word, calligraphy for Muslims is a visible expression of the highest art of all, the art of the spiritual world. Calligraphy has arguably become the most venerated form of Islamic art because it provides a link between the languages of the Muslims with the religion of Islam. The holy book of Islam, al-Qur'an, has played an important role in the development and evolution of the Arabic language, and by extension, calligraphy in the Arabic alphabet. Proverbs and passages from the Qur'an are still sources for Islamic calligraphy.
It is generally accepted that Islamic calligraphy excelled during the Ottoman era. Turkish calligraphers still present the most refined and creative works. Istanbul is an open exhibition hall for all kinds and varieties of calligraphy, from inscriptions in mosques to fountains, schools, houses, etc."
