This was once driven as a work truck by its current owner. The truck is rare and I wish the setting was kinder for it; love the windshield wipers though!
Info from Wikipedia: "The Diamond T Motor Car Company was founded in Chicago in 1905 by C. A. Tilt.... By 1967, as a subsidiary of White Motor Company, it was merged with Reo Motor Company to become Diamond Reo Trucks, Inc. ...the truck gave sterling service with the British Army in North Africa Campaign, where its power and rugged construction allowed the rescue of damaged tanks in the most demanding of conditions."
Our ministry DRIVEN has developed a worship band that has been blessed to be able to create a worship CD. I myself am blessed to be able to play bass on the CD and to design the CD packaging myself. This is a 6 panel digipak, it is cardboard with a plastic CD tray. This is about the 3rd rough layout for the CD. Please let me know what you think. There is a page left for acknowledgments and "thank yous'"

Didn't mean to make a Subaru commercial, but there was our Forester, right in the middle of this kind of amazing rainbow scene.
Manufactured by GOMZ , (ГОМЗ), ( Государственный оптико-механический завод, Ленинград = Gosularstvennyi Optiko-Mekhanicheskii Zavod =State Optical-Mechanical Factory), Leningrad, USSR
Model: 1957, Type 1b, (produced only in 1957)
All Leningrad produced between 1956-68, Quantity: 76.385 units.
As to Alexander Komarov
35mm Rangefinder film camera with spring motor driven
Engraving on the front: GOMZ logo and Ленинград (Leningrad)
Lens: Jupiter-8 (ИНДУСТАР), 50mm f/2, coated, Mount: M39 screw,
filter thread 35mm, serial no. 5724763, made by KMZ
Lens release: simply turn to anti-clockwise
Aperture: f/2 -f/22, setting: dial and ring on the lens
Focusing: match the rangefinder split images in the viewfinder, by turning the focusing ring on the lens, w/ distance and DOF scales
Focus range: 1-20m +inf
Shutter: rubberized silk double cloth curtain, horizontal focal plane, speeds: 1-1/1000 +B, setting: dial on the top plate, lift and set
Spring motor drive: a spring-powered mechanical motor and takes about 20 pictures after one full actuation of the spring, it is possible 3 frames per second if you can do it,
Attention: for every frame you must release the shutter. There's absolutely No way to advance film and to cock the shutter other than via the spring motor.
**There are engravings on the right side of the top plate as 0-5-10-15-20, with a pointer beneath the motor drive knob shows the count of frames that will be taken when the spring drive is cocking
Motor drive knob: a big knob on the right of the top plate, after setting, when you take a picture it automatically cocks the shutter and winds the film, film-advance spring in it
Shutter release: on the top plate, w/ cable release socket
Frame counter: an open window, just beside the motor drive knob, advance type, manual resets by a knob on the back of the top plate
Viewfinder: coupled viewfinder/rangefinder, bright frame lines for 35, 50, 85 and 135mm lenses, and a split image rangefinder,
diopter adjustment ring on the eye-piece
Re-wind knob: on the left of the top plate, a flat knurled disc that you have to unscrew by pressing it with the ball of your thumb
Re-wind release: lever on the top plate, set the selector lever to B (Rewind)
Flash PC socket: on front of the camera, flash sync: X 1/25, Adjustable synch delay 5 - 20 milliseconds
Cold-shoe
Memory dial: on the re-wind knob, Peremotna (ПЕРЕМOТНА) word in memo disk, which was typical on some earliest cameras only.
Self-timer: a lever on the front of the camera, an inoperable self-timer is a common problem on the Leningrad because if the timer is set without the camera being wound, it breaks
Back cover: Removable with the bottom plate, opens turning the pop-up lever on the left side of the bottom plate, then unscrew a knurled ring on the other side, concentric with the rewind disc by a folding lever, on the bottom plate
Film loading: The film take-up system is unique as it ignores sprocket holes on 35mm film. Instead it winds the film onto a fat take-up spool like a drum. No account is taken of the increasing diameter of this spool as film is wound onto it, resulting in increasingly wide gaps between the frames on a roll. Modern automated negative cutting will not adjust for the unique frame layout, and negatives and slides must be ordered from labs uncut.
Tripod socket: 3/8’’
Strap lugs
Supporting leg on the bottom plate
Body: metal; Weight: 850g
serial no. 573581, first two digits show the manufacturing year, in the cold shoe
This type 1b is a rare one. With type 1a this camera is earliest so far known productional version of Leningrad.
Built very sturdily, and to a very high degree of precision (unlike most Soviet rangefinders), the Leningrad is said to be the most advanced (and expensive) Soviet rangefinder ever made. Many were given as presents to party members and visiting dignitaries. At the 1958 World Exposition in Brussels, the Leningrad was awarded the "Grand Prix de Bruxelles”. Modified Leningrads were used in the Soviet space program.
Note: If Leningrad suddenly decides not to advance the film after you've taken try turning the shutter speed dial slightly counterclockwise against spring tension, then letting it snap back. Often this will release the mechanism and let the film advance to the next frame. And since (as noted above) there's no alternate manual way to advance the film, you'd better hope this trick works!

Ex Electric Company? all-wheel drive Land Rover Defender G312MUX.
Quite often these 3-axle machines have a trailing undriven rearmost axle but this one was a genuine 6x6 conversion.
An open top carriage on an old disused railway track, driven by customers pedalling like crazy! (or more sedately if you wish).
This all adds up to quite a lot of fun on a nice balmy day through the French countryside :-).
It's not too tiring either if there are a few of you, because you can take it in turns to do the pedalling! :-). Velorails can be found throughout France and other European countries too.
We have been a bit naughty here though, since the rules ask you not to get 'close' to the carriage in front, but as you can see - we are a competitive lot and trying to catch up with those in front seemed the natural thing to do! :-) Don't tell! :-))

The crew preparing a Breguet Bre.14 A2, the reconnaissance version. The Bre.14 was the mainstay during the late war years of the French Aviation Militaire. After the war it soldiered on for years in France but even longer in the French African and Asian colonies (or protectorates). It was also used extensively in other forces. The US Expeditionary Force (in WW1) also flew the Breguet Bre.14.
The crew is here working the engine, which given this picture needed a crew of four to get the engine started. Although hand swinging the propeller has not started it might go when the other two people underneath the front of the fuselage has done their job with the engine.
For the curious. At the right side of the fuselage is a wind power driven electricity generator which feeds probably the wireless transmitter (In French TSF - Télégraphie (ou Téléphonie) Sans Fil)

Most Rustons were chain driven but this one uses connecting rods from a jackshaft under the cab.

The background was no the best.
Bu ti have to say that being showered with fragments of glass from several shots was kind of neat.
As I cowered from said shrapnel.
Cheers.

MARS MAPS MUD
MUD | Market-driven Unintentional Development
The city: man’s greatest invention, or clumsy byproduct of civilization? China’s historic building frenzy is a hallmark of man’s dominance over the landscape. With speed and efficacy its urban spaces have been planned and then built, rolling out the modern cityscapes that are shaping our future. However, observing the outcome of three decades of flash urbanization reveals a disturbing reality. While every block is meticulously planned, the resulting urban form is not. The amorphous cities printed on these tables undermine the staunch belief we have control over the urbanization process.
Through GIS data we traced the footprints of eight urban clusters for the year 2000, and their expansion by 2010. The resulting patterns are wholly unintentional, revealing an organic logic at best. Moreover, the speed of their expansion has outpaced any strategy to streamline development: in ten short years Shanghai has doubled its built-up area. As the periphery merges with countryside, eluding planners in it wake, the profession finds itself in crisis. The urban edges fragmented, activities scattered, these oozing entities defy the very notion of the city. Set against the backdrop of China’s goal for new ecocities, this raises a fundamental question: if we cannot plan our cities, how do we plan ecocities?

城市到底是人类最伟大的发明，还是文明发展进程中拙劣的副产品？放眼历史，中国城市建设的狂乱将人类对城市景观的支配彰显得淋漓尽致。在中国，城市空间的规划极速而高效，紧接着投入建设，涌现的现代城市风光更塑造着我们的未来。然而，若仔细观察过去三十年间疾速都市化的成果，展现在我们眼前的是一片令人不安的现实。尽管每条道路、每个住宅群、每座工厂、甚至是整个村镇的规划过程都一丝不苟，所生成的都市形态却不尽然。这间小展厅的桌上所印的杂乱而无定形的城市动摇了我们的一种坚定信念，即我们有能力控制都市化的进程。通过采集的GIS数据，我们追踪研究了2000年的八大城市发展中心，以及它们2010年后续产生的城市膨胀。
研究数据证明，中国主要经济群的发展模式是完全无序的，最多象征了一种潜在的有机逻辑。此外，这些城市足迹膨胀的速度彻底超越了任何旨在控制它们发展的规划方案；举例来说，中国最大的城市上海的建成面积在短短十年里足足翻了一倍。城市边缘渗入郊区，发展步伐完全不再受城市规划者和决策者的掌控—城市规划这一专业领域陷入了危机。这一切情有可原。城市边缘的分裂现象极其严重，建设规划分散于城郊中，这些不断渗出的实体向城市这一概念本身发起了挑战。这一发现对城市理论家而言也许仅仅是一片值得玩味的沼泽，但在中国所提出的建设新生态城市的宏伟目标的大背景下，它提出了一个关键问题：如果我们无法规划城市，生态城市规划的愿景要如何实现呢？
该项目是即将问世的《试与错的宣言：新世界中的都市建设方案》的一部分。北京设计周， 大栅栏三井胡同21

I just posted the power gear on the Westside Lumber Shay engine and added a load of notes. I realized that I needed to add the shot of the gear on the tender and further explain a Shay's operation. As you can see, the drive shaft continues on to the tender for more power in the form of tractive effort. A Shay tender could consist of two of the trucks on the really large locos. This means up to 16 driven wheels, drivers; that's twice #346 and #844. This engine has 12 driven wheels having a smaller tender. Near the "No Aqua" water tank at "Delay Junction" at the Colorado Railroad Museum, the WestSide Lumber Company #12 Shay locomotive sits on the siding rails. I know a lot of folks have knowledge of the history and construction of the Shay locomotives. If I remember correctly, Ephraim Shay, born in 1839, soon ended up associated with the lumber industry in Michigan. He had a brain explosion and designed his Shay locomotive originally to run on pole (lumber) rails in the woods. His idea worked and the Lime Locomotive Works in Ohio was to manufacture this oddity. Needless to say, they were expected to operate in foul conditions and on absurd trackage. He hung vertical cylinders on the side of the boiler and spun a drive shaft along the side of the engine and tender. That is not entirely unlike your car. Usng a design of bevel gears and universal joints allowed the contraption to power bogie trucks that swivel. All the trucks: the front truck under the boiler, the truck under the cab and either one or two trucks under the tender provided for maximum tractive effort powered through extremely tight curves. The top speed was of course, very limited and CRRM volunteers told me that the enjoyment of a ride wore very short but not short enough. Fortunately, the light was on the correct side but horribly directional and harsh. Here it is anyway. I work hard to expand the shadows on this so I could read the lettering on the frame; OWNED BY LOCO LEASE II. I doubt it now. CRRM does not have a Heisler locomotive; donations anyone? I'm not sure if there was one in Colorado.
Eddie and I spaced the Christmas Steamup this year but he found there was a "Black on Track" costume event upcoming. He really wanted to see this steam up. We are REALLY waiting for the RSG #20 to return for a steamup. Donate generously at the CRRM.That day will be shoulder to shoulder at the Colorado Railroad Museum; keep an eye on upcoming events on their web site. Outlanders could target Colorado trips with the expectations of hitting an event here in Golden. Someone will have already been here from your home town and/or country. These are the takes everyone is foaming at the mouth to see.
Outrageous light here for the bold early steam, IMHO. Steam is a winner in winter but the wind made it a blustery day. Are you ready for some steam? The first excursion was not quite full but is building on this blustery Saturday morning runby. The re-enactors are busy putting on a show now that we took our ride..
A couple of shots of "The Ugly House" Tea Room, at the side of the A5, about half way between Betws-y-Coed and Capel Curig. Another place that I have driven past at least a hundred times before but never stopped. Not the easiest place to photograph, you just can't get far enough away so these are both multi-frame stitches using the Powershot.
Here's what "The Blurb" says :-
Tŷ Hyll is a house full of history, legend and mystery; no one really knows who built the house, or when.
Legend says that the house was built in the 15th century overnight – a ‘tŷ unnos’ or ‘one night house’. According to tradition at that time, a house built during one night on common land, with a chimney smoking by dawn, could be claimed by the builders as their own property.
Other legends say it was built by robbers and thieves, taking advantage of travelers on the old main road as they journeyed through Snowdonia – ‘ugly’ people that gave the house a fearsome reputation.
Tŷ Hyll may have been a robbers’ hideout in the 15th century, and Irish labourers constructing Telford’s bridge over the Llugwy in 1820 could have used it for shelter. But Tŷ Hyll goes unmentioned by travel writers until 1853, so it might be a Victorian folly – a romantic attraction for the increasing numbers of visitors to Snowdonia.
It would have taken a lot of manpower to move the huge stones and put them in place. By the mid-19th century the skills to manoeuvre such large boulders would have been readily available among Welsh quarrymen, expertly tilting them out to stop rain entering the house and, with no mortar, plugging gaps in the thick walls with moss to block out the draught.
