It's a little complicated to explain a flying lead change to a non-horse person.

 

But it's hard. Hence the look of concentration (or constipation) on this pair's faces.

Casablanca, Hasan II Mosque, a place of many superlatives. Seeing the size of this place, I consider myself fortunate to have so very little company ion the middle of a December day.

A couple of weeks ago, I got the last lot of Merseyside PTE tickets that adambrown400 had for sale on eBay. I wasn't going to buy these in the first place, but, seeing as no-one else was, I thought I may as well have them and very interesting they were too. Among this little lot were two second class child Interchange tickets.

 

Mersey Interchange services were six experimental "bus to rail" services in the Liverpool area, using specially marked buses and one of these was service A1. Anyway, it's all explained here on page 27 of the North/South Divisions timetable, dated 6 May 1974.

A friend was flying in a turbo-prop plane out of San Francisco and took some

pictures of San Francisco Bay out the window with his iPhone/camera.

If you have an explanation for the interesting result, let me know and I will forward the info.

May 13, 2019 - Frank Lloyd Wright designed SC Johnson Administration Building (1936) and Research Tower (1943) located in Racine, Wisconsin.

 

"When Herbert Johnson refused to turn his back on his company’s hometown, Wright designed the building without windows, explaining that as “nature was not present” in the environment, his design would “recreate nature” on the interior. The result, Wright promised, would be like working in a pine forest glade, with fresh air and sunlight all of the time. Wright achieved his vision with the help of two important innovations: steel mesh-reinforced concrete and glass tubing. The concrete allowed him to build slender white columns that rose tendril-like from their nine-inch bases to eighteen-foot-wide circular concrete “lily pads” that support the roof. The tubing allowed much of the roof and clerestory to filter perfectly diffuse light between the lily pads, creating a space that, without traditional windows, is the very essence of light. Due to the fact that the available technology could not properly seal the glass tubing, the roof leaked every time it rained. Herbert Johnson took to keeping a bucket on his desk to catch the drops.

 

The construction of the Johnson Wax Administration posed significant challenges and costs, originally budgeted at $200,000, kept rising. “First, Frank Lloyd Wright was working for me,” Johnson recounted: “Then we were working together. Finally, I was working for him.” Despite spending some $900,000 to see his headquarters finished, Johnson was so enamored of Wright’s genius that he would go on to employ Wright to design both his personal home and the new headquarters for the company’s research and design division. The resulting fourteen-story research tower is connected to the main building by a covered bridge. Reinforced concrete slabs, cantilevered from the building’s central core, form the alternating square floors and circular balconies. Though the Research Tower is no longer in use because of a change in fire safety codes, an extensive restoration completed in 2013 has enabled the tower to be open for public tours for the first time in its history."

"This tour is perfect for those who want a close, in-depth look at SC Johnson’s inspired architecture as well as an understanding of the legendary partnership between third-generation company leader H.F. Johnson, Jr. and the renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

 

The tour features the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Administration Building and the Research Tower, as well as Foster + Partners-designed Fortaleza Hall (which includes the Timeline Tunnel and The Lily Pad gift shop)."

Skoglund inspired- Created a miniature cloud scene diorama, and placed a photo of myself in it!

I'm currently in the Pacific Opera Victoria's production of the magic flute (not singing) which is really cool but doesn't allow much time for building. Oh well I've got something in the works just you wait.

Someone please explain to me why these are still cheap as chips. It's a classic British sports car with a Lotus 907 engine, decent performance, comfortable interior and a hood that keeps out most of the rain. I should buy three or four of these and keep them until people come to their senses. That could be my retirement plan. LOL!

Sophie & I ran a 3-day wearable technology bootcamp using LilyPad Arduino for 11-13 year-olds at Aberystwyth for www.Technocamps.com - a project led by Swansea University in partnership with the Universities of Bangor, Aberystwyth and Glamorgan that inspires young people aged 11-19 to attend technology workshops on a range of computing-based topics.

This counts as a SP because I set up the camera on a tripod and talked to it for my class project, and this is a screenshot of me editing it in Final Cut Pro :)

A chili vendor tries to explain to me about his amulet bearing the likeness of Somdet Phrachao Taksin Maharaj, who was the first and only monarch of Thonburi kingdom (1768-1782). These amulets, "King Taksin Savior of the Nation Amulet", were first issued in 1999. The red shirt is a "Red Shirt" - symbol of the movement backed by the ex-Prime Minister Thaksin (who is NO relation to King Taksin).
