I didn't expect to see another deconstruction as I pased this building on this day. (I actually expected it to start later this year).
Some friends of mine live right on the other side of the street and they have a webcam set up. Click this link to see it (on the bottom of the page)

This was taken with my Canon Powershot S95.
I recently visited the Lower 9th Ward section of New Orleans. Never did I expect to witness the damage and destruction that still exists 4 and a half years after Hurricane Katrina hit. Itās really quite hard to explain the feeling when driving through this city. Itās what I would consider almost largely a modern day ghost town. With very few residents living in the homes that are actually visible and not overgrown by weeds and grass. Home after home is clearly not livable with spray painted marks on the front to let authorities know if there is anyone alive inside, if the gas is off, etc. Although the media reports rebuilding is going strong I sit here and can tell you out of the hundred of homes and empty lots I saw maybe 5 homes that were rebuilt.

I expected to find a few Los Angeles restaurants in this pile and indeed I did.
Wikipedia has an entry on this now closed Italian restaurant:
"Little Joe's Italian American Restaurant, now shuttered, has long stood in Chinatown, at the corner of Broadway and College Street. This is a testament of the former Italian American community that once populated the site of the current Chinatown. Actor Robert De Niro starred in the movie 15 Minutes, which was filmed at the former restaurant.
Little Joe's began in 1908 as the Italian-American Grocery company by John Nuccio, an Italian immigrant. When Italy sided badly in the war, many Italian businesses changed their names - Bank of Italy became Bank of America, and the Italian-American Grocery Company became Little Joe's. Little Joe's is not affiliated to any other restaurant that subsequently took the same name.
Robert Nuccio retired in 1922 and sold the business to his best friend, John Gadeschi. John's daughter Marion ended up marrying John Albert Nuccio (Robert's son) who went to work at the restaurant after his stint in WWII, and the business was back in the Nuccio family and remained there until it closed in 1998.
Most recently, the restaurant was operated by the third generation of Nuccio men: Steve, Bob and Jay. Jay went off on his own to The Crazy Horse, an Orange County (now West Covina) country-and-western bar/eatery. That left Steve (the eldest) and Bob (the youngest son) to operate Little Joe's.
The restaurant closed in December 1998. The owners, having waited for a revitalization of Chinatown and downtown as a night-time dining destination, decided ultimately that a good run had been had by all and that it was time to retire. With the revitalization of Old Pasadena, it became more and more difficult for downtown establishments to compete at dinner time.
As part of the revitalization movement of Chinatown, there are plans to turn the restaurant into a retail and residential hub with a large parking structure. However, very little construction activity has yet to take place at Little Joe's and other proposals for other buildings on the intersection of Broadway and College Street in Chinatown has not turned into action yet."
I was expecting a batch of postcards for my show opening on May 6th and yesterday I got...
AN EMPTY ENVELOPE!!!!
Yes, it looks like something savaged my mail and ripped out the things I needed. I was hoping to mail out a bunch of postcards to friends and family to promote my show.
Not this time!! Not yet at least. More might be on the way.

In the gym before a morning assembly, one of our students shoots and scores. Nothing compared to what she does academically.

I think most people would expect me to post chocolate for this clue, but my most favourite food would be blueberries. I have one bush that bears hardly a handful each year, but each one I treasure the taste. I can remember the first time I ever tasted a blueberry ... the way it exploded in my mouth ... and unlike chocolate, blueberries are seasonal ... making the anticipation each year a true treat

An old one, digging thru my pictures I found this one.
Turned into black and white with hard contrast.
Of course he was looking at a ball up in the air, what else?
I've got to get some ideas to take different pictures of him, but that's difficult, because when I try he comes to see what I'm doing (wet nose against my camera) or he closes his eyes with a deep sigh.
Imagine wishing and trying for one baby and ending up with two! Statistics show that there has been an increase in twin pregnancy the past few years and this short guide should answer any questions you have to giving birth to multiples!

I think part of me expected to be able to keep on keeping on. I don't mind stress, the majority of the time it's a very good motivator for me. But if you have a chance to catch your breath, sometimes that split second is what brings you to your knees. With the last few weeks taking on two 5 week classes (and making all As thus far thank you), a certification, dealing with work, missing my boyfriend, my crazy but loving family, the heat, the bills...eventually you stumble. I've never been one to admit defeat. And why there really isn't anything different going on, my mind sort of felt like it was unraveling. That list didn't even include everything I'm wanting or currently involved in with photography. I think I just have such a passion for life that sometimes I have to take a step back, recollect and then get right back on.
Sorry for the lameness in the photography. I can't really promise things will get better, I'm maxed out and I'm not going to give up on the 365-it just might be a bit weak for a while. <3

ARGUMENTOS A FAVOR DEL PARQUE TAMARGUILLO,
SU APERTURA INMEDIATA
Y EN CONTRA DE QUE LA SE-35 PASE A SU TRAVĆS
Sevilla, marzo de 2009
1. De orden social:
a. Expectativas de los vecinos de Parque Alcosa: el PGOU de 1987 calificaba este espacio como V-4. Los primeros vecinos del barrio pudieron disfrutar de este paraje antes de que se acelerara su degradaciĆ³n en los aƱos 90
b. El Parque es hoy una realidad gracias a la movilizaciĆ³n y la implicaciĆ³n ciudadana iniciada en 1996
c. Expectativas de dinamizaciĆ³n social y de realizaciĆ³n de actividades al aire libre (corredores de fondo, observadores de pĆ”jaros, fotĆ³grafos de aviones y de la naturaleza, mantenimiento mayores, encuentro de jĆ³venes, etcā¦)
d. Ćxito de proyectos en funcionamiento como āHuertos vecinales y Escolares" (60 familias y 1.500 escolares) y "Aula Verdeā y la prĆ³xima realizaciĆ³n de Proyectos aprobados en Presupuestos Participativos como āEcoAulaā, āCross Tamarguilloā, āRecorrido BotĆ”nico y OrnitolĆ³gicoā, āCelebraciĆ³n del dĆa mundial del medio ambienteā, āJornadas de encuentro sobre medioambiente urbanoā y, especialmente, āla AmpliaciĆ³n de los Huertos Vecinales y Escolaresā (150 familias y 3.000 escolares).
e. El trabajo en los Huertos potencia el deseable equilibrio entre lo rural y lo urbano en barrios perifƩricos caracterizado por una gran densidad demogrƔfica.
2. De orden ambiental:
a. PulmĆ³n verde: combate el cambio climĆ”tico y minimiza la contaminaciĆ³n del aeropuerto.
b. Descongestiona el Parque del Alamillo que tiene problemas por estar sobre utilizado.
c. Humedal (valores ambientales excepcionales necesarios para la vida silvestre especialmente de las aves) que la ley obliga a proteger.
d. Defensa de la Biodiversidad (flora y fauna).
e. Espacio necesario para la conservaciĆ³n y protecciĆ³n de especies protegidas (p.e. lirĆ³n careto, tortuga leprosa, escribano palustre, rapaces y otros, algarrobos, quejigos, roble negro, etc.), asĆ como para la recuperaciĆ³n de especies autĆ³ctonas.
f. Espacio especialmente beneficioso para las migraciones de las aves de Europa y Ćfrica(tenemos una responsabilidad Āæque van a decir los diputados ecologistas europeos?).
g. Espacio de interĆ©s para la observaciĆ³n e investigaciĆ³n ambiental, donde se han realizado ya distintos estudios por parte de las Universidades.
h. ConcienciaciĆ³n medioambiental, con un Proyecto pendiente de Centro de InterpretaciĆ³n Medioambiental.
i. Proyectos de instalaciones observables de generaciĆ³n de energĆa renovable que producirĆan energĆa para autoabastecer las necesidades del Parque.
j. Combate la emisiĆ³n de CO2, el efecto invernadero, el calentamiento global y el cambio climĆ”tico.
3. De orden cultural y cientĆfico:
a. El territorio contiene restos arqueolĆ³gicos (yacimientos paleontolĆ³gico, prehistĆ³rico, romano y moderno) de especial interĆ©s.
b. Existen investigaciones en curso de excepcional valor histĆ³rico.
c. Restos y edificaciones de valor etnogrƔfico.
d. Proyectos en marcha con la Universidad para la puesta en valor de los restos, creaciĆ³n de recorridos arqueolĆ³gicos y sala de exposiciĆ³n e interpretaciĆ³n.
e. Todo esto supone un enorme potencial para los centros educativos y para la investigaciĆ³n histĆ³rica.
4. De orden educativo:
a. Grandes posibilidades, ya demostrdas, para la educaciĆ³n ambiental y para la educaciĆ³n profesional al ubicarse junto al Cortijo San Ildefonso una Escuela Taller de la DelegaciĆ³n Municipal de Empleo que tendrĆ” la oportunidad de desarrollar lĆneas de formaciĆ³n relacionadas con las actividades propias de los Parques.
b. Proyecto en funcionamiento de educaciĆ³n ambiental (Aula Verde), con el apoyo de la ConsejerĆa de Medio Ambiente, donde participan niƱos de 8 a 12 aƱos.
c. Proyecto en funcionamiento (4 aƱos) de Huertos Escolares, donde participan mƔs de 1.500 escolares de los centros educativos del Parque Alcosa.
d. ColaboraciĆ³n con el IES Pablo Picasso en las Ć”reas de Ciencias de la Naturaleza facilitando el desarrollo de Unidades DidĆ”cticas y Trabajos de InvestigaciĆ³n, asĆ como en el Programa AndarrĆos de la ConsejerĆa de EducaciĆ³n.
e. EducaciĆ³n para la convivencia, la participaciĆ³n y las actitudes emprendedoras.
f. PrevisiĆ³n de ampliar con los nuevos huertos la participaciĆ³n de todos los centros educativos del Distrito Este.
5. De orden econĆ³mico:
a. MĆ”s de 12 millones de ā¬ invertidos de fondos europeos (POMAL y FEDER).
b. Sostenibilidad.
c. Inversiones ya aprobadas de mĆ”s de 2 millones de ā¬ para infraestructuras bĆ”sicas.
d. Desarrollo del empleo en la zona a travĆ©s de una economĆa social de cooperativas que āexploteā el Parque y reinvierta los beneficios en el mismo.
e. Expectativas de poder lograr la autosuficiencia econĆ³mica del Parque (existen ideas y proyectos en estudio).
6. De orden polĆtico:
a. En el PGOU de 2006 se plantea como principio general para la movilidad urbana favorecer al peatĆ³n, la bici y el transporte colectivo frente al transporte individualizado
b. En el PGOU 2006 tambiĆ©n se proyectan las vĆas fĆ©rreas de metro y tranvĆa: que se avance en esto y se amplĆe la lĆnea para poner una estaciĆ³n de metro en el extremo de Avd Ciudad de Chiva. Con el metro y el tranvĆa, que pueden anticiparse a las miles de viviendas que se prevĆ©n, se anima a los futuros vecinos de estos barrios a utilizar el transporte colectivo sin tener que recurrir al transporte individualizado como soluciĆ³n a la movilidad urbana.
c. Supone una mejora muy sustancial (especialmente si se respeta la vocaciĆ³n socioeducativa del Parque que se ha ido conformando a lo largo de estos 13 aƱos) en las condiciones de vida para la zona (Parque Alcosa, PolĆgono Aeropuerto, Torreblanca y Sevilla Este) muy poblada y con evidentes sĆntomas de deterioro ambiental y convivencial.
d. Dar satisfacciĆ³n a una reivindicaciĆ³n activa histĆ³rica (13 aƱos) de los vecinos y vecinas, y evitar el conflicto social que se prevĆ©, ya que el grupo humano que se agrupa entorno al reciĆ©n creado Foro Ciudadano por el Parque Tamarguillo no va a dejar la lucha por la defensa del Parque.
e. Si la apuesta es por la sostenibilidad, el Parque Tamarguillo avalarĆ” esta apuesta y, asĆ, los ciudadanos se harĆ”n partĆcipes del proyecto de una Sevilla sostenible que el Gobierno Municipal propone y promete. Si la SE-35 destroza el Parque, el Gobierno perderĆ” el crĆ©dito y aparecerĆ” la idea de que existe sumisiĆ³n a intereses econĆ³micos ajenos al bien pĆŗblico.
f. En plena crisis se muestra mĆ”s razonable y correcto promover obras o actuaciones que no contengan carĆ”cter especulativo alguno (como la SE-35) y buscar actuaciones que creando empleo defiendan el bien pĆŗblico.
g. El ahorro inversor de no hacer la SE-35 se puede destinar a desarrollar otros proyectos que pueden resolver los problemas de movilidad, como la vĆa paralela a la autovĆa de MĆ”laga, ampliar las lĆneas de metro, tren, tranvĆa y autobuses que anima a los ciudadanos a resolver su movilidad sin depender necesariamente del coche particular.
h. Un gobierno progresista debe velar por los intereses generales, ser coherente en el cumplimiento de su programa y no ceder a intereses especulativos que se basan en el urbanismo descontrolado.

Seen in 1958 Daf 600 Variomatic Publicity Brochure.
Original Daf 600 Variomatic sedan publicity brochure, to promote the first passenger car Daf had developed in the 1950s. It had an unique automatic transmission system with stepless acceleration.
The first Daf passenger car was announced in 1957 and officially presented in Febr. 1958.
Production started one year later in 1959.
The Daf 600 was designed by W. van den Brink with technical assistance of Johan van der Brugghen, and was replaced by both the 1961-63 Daf 750 and the 1961-65 Daffodil.
The differences between the standard 600 and the luxe version include the two-tone paint (six colours available), quarterlights in the door windows, hub-caps, chrome strips around the windows and chrome bumpers. In the interior there was more colour upholstery choice.
590 cc 2 cylinder air-cooled boxer engine.
600 kg.
Production Daf 600: 1959-1963.
Publisher: Van Doorne's Automobielfabrieken N.V., Eindhoven, (1958).
A4 size.
With many black & white photos and drawings.
I don't know if this brochure was intended for car dealers and potential buyers. Perhaps it was an internal brochure intended for its own employees. I inherited this brochure from an ex-Daf engineer who was involved in the development of the assembly line for the manufacture of the Daf 600.

Due to expected extreme weather on 19th July 2022, Lumo trains were only operating between Newcastle and Edinburgh. 803001 awaits departure from Newcastle on 1S93 13:47 Newcastle to Edinburgh, however things would not go to plan as all electrical power to the OHLE was lost shortly after the train passed through Manors station coming to rest just beyond Argyle Street Junction. .
