Apparu sous sa forme définitive en 1946, le Yak-11, sorti de l’établissement constitué en 1933 par l’ingénieur soviétique Alexandre Sergeyevich Yakovlev, est un biplace d’entraînement à la chasse pourvu d’un moteur en étoile Shvetsov de 570 ch. Fabriqué à 3 859 exemplaires en URSS et à 707 exemplaires en Tchécoslovaquie (type C-11, dans les usines de Kunovice), cet appareil a équipé les armées de l’air de nombreux pays de l’Est.

una silla es el objeto mas difícil, tiene que

ser cómoda, ligera y fuerte, pero lo que mas

seduce es lo que realmente configura su

belleza, es decir sus cualidades emocionales;

su armonía de formas, su tacto, sus caricias,

su autenticidad, su congruencia ante la vida.

es casi mas fácil construir un rascacielos¡

Cette place forme le cœur de la vieille ville de Francfort-sur-le-Main (Frankfurt am Main), Land de Hesse en Allemagne.

 

Le Römerberg (littéralement: le « mont des Romains ») occupe l'emplacement approximatif de la ville romaine, bâtie au cours du Ier siècle après Jésus-Christ. Ce qui explique son nom. Depuis le Moyen Âge, le Römerberg accueille de nombreuses foires, ainsi que le marché de Noël (Weihnachtsmarkt) durant les 4 semaines de l'Avent. Désormais, il est aussi un lieu de spectacles extérieurs.

 

On a ici une vue panoramique de l'ensemble de maisons à colombages appelé Ostzeile. Cet ensemble de maisons historiques ferme à l’est la place Römerberg. Sur la place, se dresse la Gerechtigkeitsbrunnen (fontaine de la Justice) datant de 1543 car elle est surmontée d'une statue de la Justice due à Philipp Uffenbach.

 

À l’est, en retrait, on distingue aussi la tour de la Kaiserdom St. Bartholomäus (en travaux) édifiée sur Domplatz entre le 13e et le 15e siècle sur l'emplacement d'une construction carolingienne. L'élection des empereurs (dès 1356), puis leur couronnement (à partir de 1562) eurent lieu dans cette église, ce qui lui valut l'appellation de cathédrale Saint-Barthélemy de Francfort.

 

À droite de la photo, on distingue par ailleurs la Nikolaikirche (13e siècle) qui limite au sud la place Römerberg.

 

Sur cette place, il y a aussi (pas visible sur cette photo) de nombreux immeubles des 14e au 18e siècle qui comprend à l'ouest, la maison Zum Römer, l'ancien hôtel de ville, dont la façade présente une horloge et est surmonté d’un clocheton, installé dans un bloc disparate de 3 maisons bourgeoises du Moyen Âge au pignon en escalier.

 

La présence de nombreux gratte-ciels a valu à Francfort-sur-le-Main le surnom de Mainhattan ou Chicago-sur-le-Main. Avec près d’un habitant sur trois n’ayant pas la nationalité allemande, Francfort est sans conteste la ville la plus internationale du pays. La ville de Goethe peut ainsi s’enorgueillir d’un brassage unique de cultures et de langues du monde. Capitale financière et commerciale de l’Allemagne, Francfort est aussi un important pôle scientifique et culturel, avec ses instituts de recherche, son université, son opéra, ses théâtres et un nombre sans cesse croissant de musées.

" Symbolisme : La forme dure et épineuse du chardon bleu représente la force, la résilience et l'endurance. Il symbolise également l'indépendance, la régénération et la transformation. "

Treelined riverbanks of the Mighty Fraser River

The long shadows of the late Autumn season.

Fraser Valley

British Columbia

Canada

 

The Fraser River is the longest river within British Columbia, Canada, rising at Fraser Pass near Blackrock Mountain in the Rocky Mountains and flowing for 1,375 kilometres (854 mi), into the Strait of Georgia just south of the City of Vancouver. The river's annual discharge at its mouth is 112 cubic kilometres (27 cu mi) or 3,550 cubic metres per second (125,000 cu ft/s), and each year it discharges about 20 million tons of sediment into the ocean.

 

The river is named after Simon Fraser, who led an expedition in 1808 on behalf of the North West Company.

Each rhododendron bloom is a gathered colony of small, near-identical flowers—delicate, deliberate, and designed to draw in early summer’s pollinators. Their symmetry has both function and grace.

Today's forms of money have developed from primitive money, e.g. B. mussels or rice, which were accepted as a means of exchange in business life. Money initially belonged to the cultic and legal sphere and referred to "that with which one can repay or pay penance and sacrifices". Only after the 14th century did it assume its current meaning as a "coined currency". From the middle of the 19th century, the gold standard existed in many countries, promising the exchange of legal tender (coins, banknotes) for a fixed amount of gold. By the 1930s almost all major states had abandoned the gold standard. Instead of such a standard, monetary policy measures were taken by the central banks to ensure price stability.

 

Partial excerpt from: (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geld#Etymologie)

 

Geld, auch benannt als:

Cash (englisch für „Bargeld“)

Kies (jiddisch kis, „Geldbeutel“)

Mäuse (jiddisch meus, „Geld“)

Moneten (lateinisch moneta, „Münze“; vgl. engl. money)

Moos (jiddisch und rotwelsch moos, mous (Plural), „Geld“)

Penunze (berlinisch Penunse, von polnisch pieniądze, aus dem Westgermanischen, verwandt mit althochdeutsch pfenning)

Zaster (rotwelsch saster, „Eisen“)

Kohle

Asche

Pulver (gemeint ist Zündpulver; vgl. sein Geld verpulvern, veraltet: verzünden)

Kröten, Mücken

 

Entwickelt haben sich die heutigen Geldformen aus Primitivgeld, z. B. Muscheln oder Reis, die im Geschäftsleben als Tauschmittel akzeptiert wurden. Geld gehörte anfangs zur kultischen und rechtlichen Sphäre und bezeichnete „das, womit man Buße und Opfer erstatten bzw. entrichten kann“. Erst nach dem 14. Jahrhundert nahm es seine aktuelle Bedeutung als „geprägtes Zahlungsmittel“ an. Ab Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts existierte in vielen Ländern der Goldstandard, bei dem der Umtausch von gesetzlichen Zahlungsmitteln (Münzen, Banknoten) in eine feststehende Menge Gold versprochen wurde. Um 1930 haben fast alle größeren Staaten den Goldstandard aufgegeben. An die Stelle eines solchen Standards traten geldpolitische Maßnahmen der Notenbanken, die eine Preisniveaustabilität sicherstellen sollten.

Of flattery is imitation. I was looking through a Banksy book and this image was one of the ones that stuck with me. If you squint your eyes, or maybe drink a lot it looks better ;)

 

The arm and feet are a bit off but they are as close as I could get in this style.

Allestito all’interno dell’Ex Palestra della Gioventù Italiana del Littorio, il Museo della Forma Urbis custodisce i frammenti superstiti di una grande planimetria di Roma incisa su 150 lastre di marmo tra il 203 e il 211 d.C., originariamente esposta sulla parete di un’aula nel Tempio della Pace, in seguito inglobata nel complesso dei SS. Cosma e Damiano. Si tratta di uno dei più rari documenti giunto a noi dall’antichità, che restituisce un panorama unico del paesaggio urbano di Roma antica. Nella sua integrità, su di una superficie di 18x13m circa erano rappresentati almeno 13.550.000 m2 di città attraverso una moltitudine di sottili incisioni che raffiguravano le planimetrie degli edifici di Roma, a una scala media di circa 1:240. Considerata la posizione, la difficile leggibilità e la generale assenza di dettagli, è probabile che la pianta marmorea avesse, più che una finalità pratica, una funzione di propaganda e di celebrazione del potere, fornendo all’osservatore una visione generale della città e dei suoi grandiosi monumenti, le cui sagome erano facilmente individuabili anche grazie all’uso del colore.

Anche se rinvenuti a centinaia, a partire dal 1562 e fino ai pezzi scoperti più di recente, i frammenti della Forma Urbis costituiscono circa un decimo della pianta originale, in uno stato di conservazione che varia da piccole schegge a settori di lastra con interi quartieri, case, portici, templi e botteghe. Solamente per circa 200 frammenti circa è stato finora possibile raggiungere un’identificazione e un’ideale collocazione sulla topografia moderna.

I never fully let go of last summer's bliss. I thought it would be wrenched from me in the form of ice storms and freezing temperatures, but strangely this year it wasn't. And now, as the spring days grow longer, and I bask in the unseasonably warm weather, I feel that summer lightness prematurely returning, full of memory and familiarity.

Ravens and crows together form the genus Corvus in the corvid family (Corvidae). The larger representatives are referred to as "ravens", the smaller ones as "crows". However, this is not a taxonomic classification. The genus includes 42 species, which are distributed almost worldwide and are missing only in South America. In Europe, the common raven, the carrion crow (carrion crow and hooded crow) and the rook occur. As a naturalized neozoon, the crow has also been breeding in the Netherlands since the late 1990s.

Ravens and crows are among the largest species within the order of passerines: the two largest representatives of the genus are the common raven (Corvus crassirostris) and the common raven (Corvus corax), each of which has a body length of between 60 and 70 cm and a body weight of up to Can reach 1.5 kg and are therefore the largest passerine birds ever.

Raben und Krähen bilden zusammen die Gattung Corvus in der Familie der Rabenvögel (Corvidae). Die größeren Vertreter werden als „Raben“, die kleineren als „Krähen“ bezeichnet. Hierbei handelt es sich jedoch nicht um eine taxonomische Einteilung. Die Gattung umfasst 42 Arten, die fast weltweit verbreitet sind und nur in Südamerika fehlen. In Europa kommen der Kolkrabe, die Aaskrähe (Rabenkrähe und Nebelkrähe) und die Saatkrähe vor. Als eingebürgertes Neozoon brütet zudem die Glanzkrähe seit Ende der 1990er Jahre in den Niederlanden.

 

Raben und Krähen zählen zu den größten Arten innerhalb der Ordnung der Sperlingsvögel: Die beiden größten Vertreter der Gattung sind der Erzrabe (Corvus crassirostris) und der Kolkrabe (Corvus corax), die jeweils eine Körperlänge zwischen 60 und 70 cm und ein Körpergewicht von bis zu 1,5 kg erreichen können und damit die größten Sperlingsvögel überhaupt sind.
