A 'kitchen sink solution' on jobs
By: Chris Frates
June 15, 2011
The center-left Washington think tank Third Way is holding a forum Wednesday to discuss the merits of allowing companies to bring the $1 trillion in profits parked overseas back to the United States at a temporarily reduced tax rate.
The morning forum at Union Station will include Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.); Democratic Reps. Loretta Sanchez of California and Jared Polis of Colorado; former Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern; Duke Energy chief executive Jim Rogers; and George Schink, managing director of Navigant Economics.
Third Way’s vice president of communications, Sean Gibbons, said the forum is designed to determine whether the idea — which is anathema to many liberals — is a viable option for jump-starting U.S. job growth.
“We have unemployment near 9 percent. We’ve basically pulled every single lever we can as a government. … We’ve done almost everything we can to get the economy going. It’s time to throw in the kitchen sink. This is a kitchen sink solution,” Gibbons said. One trillion dollars “is a lot of coin. It’s sitting overseas. If we could bring over a significant portion of that back into the economy, we believe that would stimulate demand, and demand stimulates jobs.”
It’s not a perfect solution, Gibbons said, but one the Republican-controlled House might be willing to entertain.
He acknowledged that analysts don’t yet know how many jobs such a policy might create. But, he said, bringing money back to the U.S. creates demand, which in turn drives hiring.
The forum is the first public event of the think tank’s new corporate tax reform project directed by former Rep. Dan Maffei (D-N.Y.), who’s now a Third Way senior fellow.
Right now there is over a trillion dollars in global profits earned by American businesses sitting overseas. What if we lowered the bar for companies to bring that money back home?
Third Way hosted an Idea Forum that examined the economic and policy implications of a repatriation tax holiday that would allow American multinational companies to bring overseas profits back to the U.S. for investment at a reduced tax rate.
Featuring a distinguished panel of leaders from business, labor, economics and government, the forum offered a fruitful discussion of a repatriation holiday’s impact on hiring and investment, business practices, and future tax policy. Participants include Senator Kay Hagan, (D-NC), Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez (CA-47), Congressman Jared Polis (CO-2), Andy Stern, former President of the Service Employees International Union, Jim Rogers, CEO of Duke Energy and Dr. George Schink, Managing Director and Principal of Navigant Economics.
This Idea Forum is the first public event of Third Way’s new corporate tax reform project, managed by former Congressman (and now Third Way Senior Fellow) Dan Maffei, which will advance ideas to make the code fairer, simpler, and more pro-growth.

The summit of Crich Hill is reputed to have been the site of a Beacon Fire, which signalled the sighting of the Spanish Armada in the English Channel in 1588. It is believed that after the thrashing the Spanish received from Drake, his ships and the good old English weather, it was again used to celebrate the victory. In 1988 this most famous naval victory was again celebrated on its 400th anniversary with a new Beacon Post and Brazier being built and in 2002 it was again rebuilt as a cairn and brazier to commemorate HM The Queen's Golden Jubilee.
In 1734 there were a number of small lime kilns on the Hill and the public footpath which runs across the Hill to Crich is believed to have been used by Salt Merchants who packed the salt on horses or mules, transporting it southwards from the Cheshire area.
THE TOWER
The first record of any tower type structure is during the reign of King George III (1760) when a wooden tower was erected to provide both a landmark and a place from which to take in some of the best views available. It is thought that this tower was erected to mark his accession to the Throne. Owing to its wooden construction in such an exposed area, it only lasted about 25 years before being demolished. In 1788, Francis Hurt paid the princely sum of 210 to have a conical limestone tower with a wooden top constructed on the site of the old tower. By about 1843 the conical tower was in such a poor state of repair that a decision was taken to rebuild and in 1849 some of the stones of this conical tower were used to build the base of the new circular tower that was built from grit stone.
The circular tower was opened in 1851 (the year of the Great Exhibition) and it had a stone stairway winding up inside. An engraved tablet set in the wall at the top showed that the tower was 955 feet above sea level.
It could be said that this tower was the forerunner of The Sherwood Foresters Memorial. In June 1856 it was the scene of a jubilant crowd celebrating the end of the Crimean War (1854-56) and Sergeant Wetton of the 95th Derbyshire Regiment, a resident of Crich, was carried to the top of the Hill in a specially adapted chair as he had lost a leg at the Battle of the Alma (20th September 1854). There is no doubt that he would have been happy that the war was over, but it is certain that he would have remembered his Regimental Family and the comrades who never came home. In 1881 the 95th Derbyshire Regiment joined the 45th Nottinghamshire Regiment to form The Sherwood Foresters.
In June of 1882 there was a major landslide in the area of the quarry and this had a serious subsidence effect on the tower, lightning strikes and further minor movements of the ground in the immediate area resulted in the closing of the tower to the public for reasons of safety.

Sprengel Museum Hannover
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING!
09. October 2011 – 15. January 2012
Sprengel Museum HannoverSprengel Museum Hannover
IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE
LOWER SAXONY SAVINGS BANK FOUNDATION
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is an exhibition of the works of 31 photographers on a floor area of over 2,000 square metres. Since HOW YOU LOOK AT IT in 2000, this exhibition is the first and only one to provide an all-embracing overview of artistic photography from the 1960s to the present day. The exhibition has been organized by the Sprengel Museum Hannover in collaboration with the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation. Starting out from the Foundation’s collection of large groups of works by both American and European photographers, the only collection of its kind in Europe, the exhibition explores the history and perspectives of the ‘documentary style’ of photography.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! constitutes yet a further step towards establishing Hanover as an important centre for artistic photography in the north of Germany.
The starting points of the exhibition are the works of Robert Adams, Diane Arbus, Lewis Baltz, Bernd and Hilla Becher, William Eggleston, Lee Friedlander, John Gossage, Nicholas Nixon, Martin Parr and Michael Schmidt. The artist photographers Rineke Dijkstra, Paul Graham, Thomas Struth and the photographers of the generations that followed, such as Jitka Hanzlová, Stephen Gill, Jochen Lempert, Elisabeth Neudörfl, Heidi Specker and Tobias Zielony, visualize the world with a style of photography that adheres strictly to the medium and yet is highly subjective. Max Baumann, Boris Mikhailov, Rita Ostrowskaja and Helga Paris extend the perspective with experiences of their own confrontations with different political systems, while Laura Bielau, Thomas Demand, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff, Wolfgang Tillmans and Jeff Wall use the documentary style of photography as a means of exemplifying the phenomena of visual perception. Many of the works are being exhibited for the very first time.
Integrated into the exhibition are three successive Project Rooms organized by three guest curators and each taking place for the duration of one month. They thematize three different methods of collecting and three different ways of using photography.
From 9.10. until 30.10.2011 the artist Thierry Geoffroy will investigate the idea behind the title of the exhibition – PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! – and ask: Who calls whom and what, and for what purpose, and out of what interests? On 1.11.2011 Markus Schaden will be setting up a study room devoted to the photography book as a ‘storage medium’ and collector’s item. From 6.12.2011 until 15.1.2012 Wilhelm Schürmann will be exposing the obsessions that can be the driving force behind a private collection of photographs, graphics, paintings and sculptures.
In the run-up to the exhibition HOW YOU LOOK AT IT at the Sprengel Museum Hannover, which was curated by Thomas Weski and Heinz Liesbrock on the occasion of EXPO 2000, the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation began to purchase comprehensive groups of works by selected American and European photographers. Since then, the collecting activity of the Foundation has been focused on those works of photography that may be understood to be in the tradition of the ‘documentary style’ (Walker Evans, 1903-1975) and have been exercising a strong influence on photography since the end of the 1960s. Thus it has been possible – thanks not least to the recommendations of a high-calibre advisory board – to build up a photographic collection distinguished by its concentration on groups of works. In this regard the collection is unique in Europe.
The Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation’s collection and its perspective are now to be the subject of the present exhibition, which is being mounted jointly with the Sprengel Museum Hannover and also in the context of the Museum’s own well-cultivated photography tradition, which began in 1979 and can boast exhibitions of such great exponents of photography as Karl Blossfeldt, El Lissitzky, Judith Joy Ross and Michael Schmidt, to name only a few of many, or the “SPECTRUM” International Prize for Photography of the Foundation of Lower Saxony. ‘Collecting’ manifests itself here as an open system that operates self-reflexively in the aforementioned Project Rooms and is future-oriented and discussion-friendly in the exhibition’s supplementary events.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is accompanied by a copious publication (Steidl, Göttingen). Visitors will also be offered a comprehensive information programme.
The exhibition has been curated by Inka Schube, Curator for Photography and Media Art, Sprengel Museum Hannover, and Thomas Weski, Professor of “Curatorial Cultures”, Academy of Visual Arts, Leipzig.

"Con el GS, Citroën popularizaba los avances tecnológicos que antes incorporaba en su gama alta creando un automóvil accesible pero dotado de la singular tecnología hidroneumática que tanta fama había dado a la marca. También se adoptaban la técnica y la experiencia provenientes del 2CV creando para la ocasión una nueva familia de motores bóxer refrigerados por aire pero de 4 cilindros y árboles de levas en cabeza que lograban un funcionamiento fiable, suave y silencioso y requerían muy poco mantenimiento.
Inicialmente la mecánica fue de 1015 cc y 40 kW (55 CV) aunque posteriormente su cilindrada y potencia se fueron elevando hasta alcanzar los 1300 cc y los 48 kW (65 CV) en sus últimas versiones. Con una carrocería más aerodinámica incluso que la de su hermano mayor el Citroën CX, su seguridad activa y confort de marcha eran superlativos.
Esto le permitió ganar el título de Coche del Año en Europa en 1971, y gozar de gran popularidad en países como Francia, Alemania o España, donde se fabricó en la factoría de Vigo y fue nombrado Coche del Año en 1974.
Se dieron 4 versiones principalmente de menos a más lujosas; estas eran el Special, la versión Club la versión Pallas y la versión deportiva que se denominaban x1, x2 o x3 este último con motor de 1300 cc.
En 1979 apareció totalmente remodelado exterior e interiormente con nuevos y prominentes parachoques plásticos que incluían deflectores y un moderno habitáculo en el que llamaban la atención sus novedosos mandos satélite, nuevos acabados y una climatización muy mejorada. Se le denominó GSA, y contaba con un amplio portón que lo convertía en un 5 puertas. Se equipó con motores de 1100 y 1300 cc, y se mantuvieron los acabados Pallas, Special, Club y el deportivo ahora llamado x3. Creció en longitud y aunque no tuvo el éxito de ventas del GS, sus mejoras en calidad y refinamiento eran patentes. También incluía la posibilidad de equipar una caja de 5 velocidades.
Dejó de fabricarse el 21 de julio de 1986, dando paso al Citroën BX, más moderno en su plataforma y concepción montaba una mecánica convencional de 4 cilindros en línea y mantenía la suspensión hidroneumática."

The Cars Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco
At the end of the 1950s, the car enthusiast Prince Rainier III began collecting old cars. His collection gradually grew over the years as he acquired more and more models, and the garage at the Prince's Palace soon emerged as too small to contain this collection of around a hundred stunning streamlined and sporty cars, from majestic body work to gleaming hoods and regal radiator grills!
In 1993, Prince Rainier III therefore decided to open his precious collection to the public.
Located on the Terrasses de Fontvieille, the exhibition spans 5 000 m2 and is unique in the world, bringing together around a hundred-odd different cars, from a 1903 DE DION BOUTON to the 2013 LOTUS F1 via HISPANO SUIZA, ROLLS ROYCE, LINCOLN, FACEL VEGA, DELAGE, DELAHAYE, PACKARD, HUMBER, NAPIER, FERRARI, MASERATI, LAMBORGHINI, ALFA ROMEO, the LEXUS used for the royal wedding in 2011, and without forgetting the racing cars seen at the Monte Carlo Rally and the Formula 1s from the Monaco Grand Prix.
The Car Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco will host a unique exhibition of Ferrari vehicles from 3 December 2018 to 15 March 2019.
Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1947, in Maranello in Italy, the cars with the prancing horse have left their mark on automobile history on road and circuit. Manufacturer of race and sports cars, Ferrari quickly became an automobile benchmark, both technically and aesthetically.
At this exhibition, unique, around 50 of competition and sport cars, the most iconic of the brand, which built the Ferrari legend and which millions of fans dream about, will be brought together in the Principality for four months.
For more information, please consult the Website of the Cars Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco: www.mtcc.mc

Kilkenny's, where the manager is as friendly and attractive as a fresh, fragrant steaming pile of people poo - to bar flies. Enough for being kind, what a shithead, fukedup stinking drunken asshole, and that was at noon. I can only imagine what punishment his liver must endure as he pounds the day into night. This untouchable human turd runs out screaming that I'm a professional and that I can't take pictures of his phone. I remind him that I'm on public property, snapping photos of objects in open-field, plain view, and that he should unhand me. Now, I am on public record as having taken several public oaths for public service - in public and for the Republic, and every one has included, in addition to the implied "Obey all laws," a clause to uphold and defend the United States Constitution. And short of his assault and unlawful detainer to deprive me of my property without due process, I just can not and will not tolerate the terrorism resulting from his violations of the first, fourth and fourteenth amendment via the Bill of Rights. He threatened to "call a cop," I said "I'm right here, but let's get one on duty." If he had been thinking clearly, he would have welcomed the free publicity, and not ended up facing charges of disorderly conduct and public intoxication.
So, if you are ever near a Kilkenny's, take the opportunity to remind all that are near, or within earshot, that we don't support terrorists, nor do we finance the establishment of those who would trample human rights. Boycott Kilkenny's!

1937 Horch 853 Spezialroadster
Coachwork by in the style of Erdmann & Rossi
Chassis no. 853177
Engine no. 851234
•One of the most sporting German cars of its era
•Resurrection of an iconic design
•Modern five-speed manual gearbox
•Offered with a ZF 4-speed gearbox
Footnotes
Like other limited-production styles offered by German luxury manufacturers in the 1930s, Horch's impressive 853 Spezialroadster was produced in different series with styling that evolved over time. The second series included just five examples, a prototype and four subsequent 'production' versions. Built on a shortened chassis, they were distinguished by an extremely long bonnet, extending virtually to the frame of a raked 'V' windscreen in the manner of Dietrich-styled Packards; a single-blade front bumper; and a moulding running from the front of the car all the way around the rear of the body.
The result was a design that emphasised the car's front end and had virtually no rear deck, giving it the impression of massive horsepower and tremendous length. More than just a stunning example of the Horch, it was one of the most beautiful German automobiles of the era, managing to combine both the famous 'Teutonic arrogance' of which motoring writers often spoke, with a certain lithe grace. Today only four authentic Spezialroadsters of the second series are known to have survived compared with twice as many of the more famous 500 K and 540 K 'long tail' Spezialroadsters produced by Mercedes-Benz in the same era.
The example offered here was constructed by the well-known German specialists Horch Classic upon an original 853 chassis, reportedly acquired in the Ukraine where it had been in service as a farm tractor! A restoration was soon underway, which would take seven years and involve many thousands of man-hours and research with numerous archives. The design was intended to mirror the best features of both the first- and second-generation Spezialroadsters, borrowing the original design's wing-mounted driving lights and low-cut doors, with the second generation's smooth one-piece tail.
The body was crafted in the traditional fashion, using a wooden mock-up as the basis for a wooden body frame of the correct type. Great care was taken in crafting the body frame and the outer panels, then painstakingly uniting them with expert fit and finish. The body was finished in a striking and period-correct colour combination: silver with a red bonnet upper surface, while the interior was finished in leather of a period-correct grain and texture, embroidered with the Horch logo on the seats and door cards. The hood was finished with an Alcantara lining. Such was the level of detail involved in the coachwork that the dashboard, a single piece of wood, was fashioned of Canadian burr veneer, chosen because its slight reddish tinge complements the paintwork beautifully. All chromed parts were properly re-plated, while the Horch logos on the radiator and boot lid were plated with 24-carat gold.
Horch Classic noted that the frame required repair in several areas due to corrosion, while the original engine, front and rear axles, differential, and steering were all overhauled as necessary before reinstallation. The engine received new bearings, pistons, and valve guide seals, and the camshaft and valve gear were both rebuilt. Dynamometer tested for some 20 hours before installation, the engine uses a modern ignition system and transmits its power to the rear axle via a modern five-speed manual gearbox. Importantly, an original and correct Horch four-speed manual transmission has been acquired by the vendor and is offered with the car, enabling a new owner to improve the correctness and authenticity of their acquisition at little additional cost. Previously registered in Switzerland as a 'Veteran' and offered with cancelled Swiss papers, the Horch is tax-paid in that country and could easily be reregistered there should the successful purchaser so desire.
Horch Spezialroadsters are few in number, and the opportunity to acquire one so expertly crafted and true to the breathtakingly beautiful original design is a rare indeed. Built by marque experts, this car is a fitting tribute to one of the most beautiful European designs of its era, an automobile admired by enthusiasts and historians alike.
Please note this motor car is subject to the reduced local import tax should it remains in the EU. Bonhams is the guarantor of the customs duties and taxes clearance: consequently, this motor car cannot be released to the buyer or his transporter immediately after the sale.
Horch 853 Spezial roadster
carrossée dans le style d'Erdmann & Rossi 1937
Châssis n° 853177
Moteur n° 851234
•Une des voitures allemandes les plus sportives de l'époque
•Restauration par Horch Classic bien préservée
•Résurrection d'un modèle emblématique
•Boîte manuelle à cinq rapports moderne
•Vendue ave une boîte à quatre rapports Horch ZF originale
Comme les autres modèles de luxe allemands construits en série limitée dans les années1930, l'impressionnante 853 Spezialroadster de Horch fut produite en différentes variantes dans un style qui évolua avec le temps. La seconde série ne compte que cinq exemplaires, un prototype et quatre modèles « de série ». Construits sur un empattement raccourci, ils se distinguaient par leur capot extrêmement long, se prolongeant pratiquement jusqu'au pied du pare-brise incliné à la manière des Packard carrossées par Dietrich avec un pare-chocs avant constitué d'une seule lame et une moulure prenant naissance à l'avant de la voiture et en faisant tout le tour en enveloppant l'arrière.
Le résultat mettait en valeur l'avant de la voiture qui n'avait pratiquement pas de partie arrière, donnant une incroyable impression de puissance et de longueur démesurée. Plus qu'un simple exemplaire de Horch hors du commun, il s'agit de l'une des plus belles automobiles allemandes de l'époque, combinant la fameuse « arrogance teutonne », dont parlent souvent les journalistes automobiles, avec une certaine élégance. Aujourd'hui seuls quatre authentiques Spezialroadsters de la seconde série ont survécu, comparés aux deux fois plus nombreux Spezialroadsters « longue queue » 500 K et 540 K plus connus produits par Mercedes-Benz à la même époque.
L'exemplaire vendu ici a été construit par le spécialiste bien connu Horch Classic sur un châssis 853 original, acquis en Ukraine où il servait de tracteur agricole ! La restauration, qui allait prendre sept années et impliquer des milliers d'heures de main d'œuvre et de recherches dans de nombreuses archives, débuta aussitôt. Le dessin devait associer le meilleur des deux générations de Spezialroadsters, empruntant les phares montés sur les ailes et les portes échancrées du dessin original avec l'arrière arrondi de la seconde génération.
La carrosserie a été réalisée de manière traditionnelle en utilisant un patron en contreplaqué comme modèle pour réaliser la structure de carrosserie en bois conforme à l'originale. On prit grand soin à la réalisation de la structure et des panneaux de carrosserie et en les réunissant avec des tolérances et une finition d'experts. La carrosserie fut peinte dans une harmonie de couleurs percutante conforme à celles de l'époque, gris argent avec capot rouge tandis que l'intérieur recevait un cuir au grain et à la texture conformes à ceux de l'époque, brodé du logotype Horch sur les sièges et les portes. La capote est doublée en Alcantara. Le niveau de détail est tel que le tableau de bord, constitué d'un seul morceau de bois, a été réalisé en loupe d'orme canadien, choisi parce que sa légère nuance rouge s'accordait bien à la teinte de la carrosserie. Tous les chromes ont été refaits, tandis que les logos Horch du radiateur et du coffre ont été plaqués en or 24 carats.
Horch Classic souligne que le châssis a nécessité des réparations à plusieurs endroits en raison de la corrosion, tandis que le moteur original, les essieux avant et arrière, le différentiel et la direction ont tous été révisés, comme nécessaire, avant d'être remontés. Le moteur a reçu des pistons, des roulements et des guides de soupapes neufs et l'arbre à cames et les commandes de soupapes ont été refaits. Passé au banc d'essai pendant 20 heures avant d'être remonté, le moteur est doté d'un système d'allumage moderne et transmet sa puissance à l'essieu arrière via une boîte manuelle à cinq rapports modernes. Il est important de noter qu'une boîte manuelle à quatre rapports originale et conforme, acquise par le vendeur, est fournie avec la voiture, afin de permettre à l'acheteur d'améliorer l'authenticité et la conformité de son acquisition sans grands frais supplémentaires. Précédemment immatriculée en Suisse comme véhicule de collection et vendue avec ces papiers périmés, les frais de douane pour ce pays ont été acquittés et la Horch sera facile à ré-immatriculer si l'heureux acheteur le désire.
Les Spezialroadsters Horch sont très rares et les occasions d'en acquérir un aussi magnifiquement réalisé et si proche du superbe dessin original sont encore plus rares. Construit par des experts de la marque, cette voiture est un hommage à l'un des plus beaux designs européens de son époque, une automobile admirée aussi bien par les passionnés que par les historiens.
Veuillez noter que si cette voiture reste dans la Communauté Européenne elle sera soumise à une taxe d'importation au taux réduit de la TVA à l'importation locale. Bonhams restant le garant des droits et taxes douanières, cette voiture ne pourra donc pas être récupérée par l'acheteur ou son transporteur immédiatement après la vente.

Preserve History
Originally named Dragon Lake Forest Preserve, Springbrook Prairie was slated to be the home of a 200-acre dragon-shaped lake, complete with a swim beach and campgrounds. However, the emergence of a significant grassland bird population eventually led the District to abandon the idea of a lake and to look at ways to restore the preserve to a native prairie landscape.
Recently, the District has secured over $1 million in grants to fund a stream re-meandering project to return the western part of Spring Brook to a more natural state. By returning the twists and turns and by making a wider, shallower bank, the District will improve water quality by slowing the flow and will also allow the stream to easily pour over its banks and into the preserve during heavy rains, improving floodwater-control features.
Activities & Facilities
At Springbrook Prairie Forest Preserve in Naperville, visitors will find 1,849 acres of swaying grasslands, restored prairies and wetlands. Over 90 species of birds, 18 different mammals, and nearly a dozen species of reptiles and amphibians call Springbrook Prairie home. With a little diligence, bird watchers may spot several native grassland species including meadowlarks, dickcissels, grasshopper sparrows, woodcocks, and bobolinks and state-endangered birds like northern harriers, short-eared owls and Henslow's sparrows. Springbrook Prairie is one of three places in northern Illinois to house such a regionally significant grassland bird community.
Outdoor Recreation
Trails
The preserve's 13 miles of trails stay to the perimeter, giving visitors wonderful views and wildlife extra privacy. Over 8 miles are open to hikers, bikers, horseback riders and cross-country skiers, and over 2 miles of narrow, mowed trails allow people on foot a closer view of the preserve's natural features. Sections of the trail may be closed during key bird breeding seasons to protect critical nesting habitats.
Picnicking
Springbrook Prairie features a non-reservable picnic shelter at the trailhead off of 83rd Street. A second non-reservable picnic area is located off of Plainfield-Naperville Road.
Special-Use Areas
Model-Aircraft Field
Hobbyists are welcome to enjoy the model-aircraft field located on the west side of Plainfield-Naperville Road but must have District permits in their possession when using the area. For permit information, call Visitor Services at (630) 933-7248.
Off-Leash Dog Area
Dogs with Forest Preserve District off-leash dog-area permits can enjoy the fully fenced off-leash area at the 83rd Street trailhead. The area, which is northwest of the parking lot, features 2 acres of fine-mowed turf and 34 acres of trails. Call Visitor Services Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. at (630) 933-7248 for permit applications and information. Owners must have the permits in their possession when using the off-leash area. Rules for the area are posted at the preserve. Dogs must be leashed in all other areas of the preserve.
Accessibility
For special accessibility needs or concerns, please contact the District's ADA coordinator at (630) 933-7683 or TTY (800) 526-0857 at least three business days in advance of your visit.
Kurokawa Onsen is one of Japan's most attractive hot spring towns, located in the middle of Kyushu about 20 kilometres north of Mount Aso. Well coordinated efforts by the town to maintain a pleasant, traditional atmosphere have kept Kurokawa free of the massive concrete hotels, neon advertisements and loud colors that are encountered in many of Japan's other resort towns.
Instead, Kurokawa's townscape is dominated by natural colors and materials, wooden buildings, earthen walls, stone stairs and a river flowing through. The town center, located in a forested valley, is compact and easily explored on foot, except for a few ryokan which are located less centrally.
The town's lanes are lined by ryokan, public bath houses, attractive shops and cafes, a small shrine and bridges that lead over the river directly to ryokan entrances. A walk through town is particularly enjoyable in yukata and geta sandals provided by one's ryokan. An information center, where maps and other information can be obtained, is also found in the town centre.
Kurokawa is not only known for its attractive town, but also for the outstanding outdoor baths (rotenburo) of its ryokan some of which are located right besides a gushing river or impress by their large sizes. The larger baths with good views tend to be located a little bit outside of the town center, while some of the more central ryokan attract with smaller but historic baths, which were already enjoyed by the feudal lords of nearby Kumamoto Castle.

The Airomobile was a one off prototype that although stimulated great interest, never made it into production. Plans for the Airomobile were first drawn up in 1934 by Paul Lewis in the USA. Lewis believed that the 3-wheeled configuration would meet his needs for streamlining and economy. After many technical problems were sorted out with the the vehicle it was eventually built in 1937. The vehicle was powered by a horizontally opposed, 129-cu.in overhead valve, air cooled four cylinder unit (57hp) created by the Dorman Marks Engine Company.
The body was created from steel and was very aerodynamic with it trailing to the rear and having two large fish like fins. The Airomobile did have a very low centre of gravity and was said to take corners faster than any 4-wheeler at the time. Lewis toured the USA on a promotional tour with the Airomobile covering over 45,000 miles. Prospective dealers were told that they would not be able to follow the Airomobile for one mile over rough terrain without damaging their driving mechanism. Lewis would then drive through ploughed fields and ditches without the need to slow down and return to show no damage had been sustained to the vehicle. As a result many dealers became interested in the Airomobile and Lewis was able to establish possible dealers throughout the USA.
In 1938 the Airomobile was slightly redesigned with a new front section that included the lights being moved from the top of the wings and built into them. Lewis again toured the USA but interest in the vehicle had diminished and plans to put the vehicle into full production were squashed with the onset of the second World War and so the vehicle never became anything more than a prototype.
The 1937 Airomobile is at the National automobile Museum at 10 Lake Street South, Reno, Nevada. 89501. USA.

Castlefest is a festival to honour the sun, which at the Celts was worshipped as the god Lugh. This god brought mankind a lot of good things; he taught us how to grow grain and he warms the earth, so that the grain can grow and we can eat. The old Celtic harvest feast Lughnasadh is held in honour of this god. To this day heathens and Celtics alike celebrate this feast yearly around the first of August, also on Castlefest!
Castlefest is een festival ter ere van de zon, die bij de Kelten werd vereerd als de god Lugh. Deze god bracht de mensen veel goede dingen. Zo leerde hij ons om graan te verbouwen en hij verwarmt de aarde, zodat het graan kan rijpen en wij te eten hebben. Het oude Keltische oogstfeest Lughnasadh is aan deze god gewijd. Tot op de dag van vandaag vieren heidenen en kelten dit feest ieder jaar rond begin Augustus, ook op Castlefest!

Eifert dem Herrn Jesus nach
I
Jesus hat Gottes Mission vollendet,
das Werk der Erlösung aller Menschen,
indem Er Seine Sorgen Gottes Willen gab,
ohne selbstsüchtige Absicht oder Pläne.
Ins Zentrum stellte Er Gottes Plan.
Zum himmlischen Vater betete Er,
nach des himmlischen Vaters Willen suchend.
Stets suchte und betete Er.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
II
Er betete und sagte: „Gott, der Vater!
Vollende Deinen Willen.
Handle nicht nach Meinen Absichten,
handle so, dass Dein Plan sich erfüllt.
Warum sorgst Du Dich
um die Menschheit, die schwach ist,
der in Deiner Hand wie eine Ameise ist?
Ich will nur Deinen Willen erfüll’n.
Wirke in Mir, so wie Du es gedenkst.“
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
III
Auf der Straße nach Jerusalem
ward Jesus das Herz schwer.
Dennoch hielt Er Sein Wort, Er schritt voran,
dorthin, wo Er gekreuzigt werden würde.
Am Ende wurde Er ans Kreuz geschlagen,
wurde zu einem Abbild des sündigen Fleisches,
vollendete das Werk der Erlösung,
erhob sich über die Fesseln des Todes.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
IV
Jesus lebte 33 Jahre,
tat alles, um Gott zufriedenzustell’n,
dachte nie an Verlust oder Gewinn,
nur an den Willen Gottes, des Vaters.
Der Dienst des Herrn Jesus
stand immer im Einklang mit Gottes Willen.
Also war Er geeignet,
die Bürde der Erlösung zu erfüll’n.
Endloses Leid ertrug Er,
und unzählige Male
brachte Satan Ihn in Versuchung.
Dennoch war Er nie entmutigt.
In Vertrauen und Liebe
gab Gott Ihm diese Aufgabe.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
Und nur in Zeiten wie diesen
werdet ihr es wagen, zu sagen,
dass ihr Seinen Willen erfüllt,
dass ihr Seinen Auftrag vollendet,
dass ihr Gott wahrhaftig dient.
aus „Das Wort erscheint im Fleisch“

Hariclea Darclée (1860-1939)
As a pupil of Jean-Baptiste Fauré, Hariclea has her opera debut in Paris in 1888, in the role of Marguerite.
But her real consecration takes place at La Scala, on 26th December 1890, where Giuseppe Verdi applauds her, for her performance of Chimène, in Massenet’s “Le Cid”. This was the time of the Belle Époque, when Darclée took the public by storm wherever she went. Darclée was a good stage performer with an arresting presence and in 1898 Puccini fell under the spell of her voice and most certainly of her beauty. She created Tosca, a role she performed frequently since its premiere.
Amongst her fans were King Carlos I of Portrugal send her love letters, Field Marshall Vizier Osman Pasha of Crimean repute and composers such as Gounod and Fauré. For Giuseppe Verdi she was "my beautiful and brave Violetta".

NOTE:
Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more. This explains why adding the numbers of the 57 individual categories bears no relation to the actual total of the above 160 women included in Blouse Roumaine.

This is the Giant Camera located behind the Cliff House in San Francisco. It was built in 1946 by Floyd Jennings. It looks rather out of place there, somehow airlifted from a decaying amusement park. There’s a little bit of irony there, as it was once part of Playland-at-the-Beach Amusement Park. The Camera hasn’t moved; Playland, the Cliff House and the Sutro Baths were at one time all owned by George Whitney. When Playland closed in 1972, it was close to being destroyed, but was eventually saved by public campaign – and as recently as 1999 struggled through the same situation.
Fortunately for us, not only was it still there, it was open. This thing is so tucked away that this was actually something new for Rita.
And now you ask, what the heck is the Giant Camera? I’m getting to that. It is sometimes referred to as a camera obscura, which in latin means “dark chamber”. And that’s essentially what it is. At it’s most basic, think of a pinhole camera. However, this one has the lens on top, and a series of mirrors and lenses to project the image onto a large disc in the middle of the room. The question then arises, "What kind of fool would go into a dark room to look at the projection of something they can see for real outside?"
Well, certainly I’m that kind of fool. It’s not easy to describe how fascinating it is, but somehow it’s like peering into an alternate universe. I think the thing of it is we’re all so used to looking at televisions and computer monitors, but the detail of this is amazing. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.
Set begins here.

www.twitter.com/Memoire2cite Des villes détruisent des HLM devenus trop nombreux, trop vieux, inlouables , Dans les zones touchées par la désindustrialisation et la perte de population, de nombreux logements doivent être démolis. Rue de la Chaume, à Montluçon (Allier), c’est le royaume des chats, plus nombreux que les locataires de cette résidence aux volets écaillés. Sur vingt-quatre appartements, six, tout au plus huit, sont occupés. « Inlouables, trop excentrés, trop chers », tranche Jacques Renault, membre de la Confédération générale du logement et représentant des locataires au conseil d’administration de Montluçon Habitat, le propriétaire.
L’office public HLM de l’agglomération a acheté cette résidence en 2005, pour un prix trop élevé, sans avoir de projet précis ni les fonds pour la réhabiliter, à la filiale HLM de la SNCF qui voulait s’en débarrasser. Car le temps où le groupe ferroviaire comptait plus de mille salariés dans ses ateliers de maintenance de Montluçon est révolu. Il n’en reste qu’une centaine aujourd’hui. Des HLM trop nombreux qu’il faut se décider à démolir. Montluçon Habitat n’est pas le seul à être confronté à l’obsolescence d’une partie de son patrimoine. Désindustrialisation massive www.lemonde.fr/societe/article/2019/05/31/ces-villes-enco... -
Dès 2015, les associations régionales HLM de cinq régions (Auvergne, Bourgogne, Champagne-Ardenne, Franche-Comté et Lorraine) ont sonné l’alarme en publiant leur manifeste pour une politique du logement en territoire détendu, qui affirmait : « On a trop construit de logements privés et publics, 38 500 par an jusqu’en 2011, alors que la moitié aurait suffi. »
La Fédération des offices publics HLM chiffre aujourd’hui à 30 000 le nombre de logements devant être démolis dans ces territoires d’ici à quatre ans, et 24 000 méritant une profonde restructuration.

www.dailymotion.com/video/xk6xui?playlist=x34ije , www.dailymotion.com/video/xk1dh2?playlist=x34ije :- que dire de RICARDO BOFFIL Les meilleures balades que j’ai fait autour de Paris je les ai faites dans l’application Plans. Je ne minore pas le rôle de Google Maps, révolution cartographique sans précédent et sans égale, qui aura réalisé nos fantasmes d’Aleph borgesien — l’idée d’un point d’où le monde serait visible en totalité — parachevé Mercator et permis d’explorer des parties du globe inconnues de Cook, Bougainville et Amundsen. Je n’oublie pas non plus cet exercice de cartographie au collège, qui nous avait démontré que nous étions à 3 cartes IGN de la capitale, et que le tissu urbain était de plus en plus serré à mesure que nous avancions vers le nord. Mais Plan possédait une fonctionnalité inédite, le Flyover, technologie à l’origine destinée aux pilotes de chasse, et qui fournissait des rendus 3D spectaculaire des bâtiments survolés — ainsi que des arbres et des déclivités du sol.On quittait enfin les champs asphyxiants de la photographie aérienne pour des vues à l’oblique des villes visitées : après un siècle d’écrasement — la photographie aérienne est étroitement contemporaine du bombardement aérien — les villes reprenaient enfin de la vigueur et remontaient vers le ciel. J’avais d’ailleurs effectué moi-même une manœuvre de redressement similaire le jour où j’étais parti, à pied depuis Paris, visiter à Nanterre une exposition sur la photographie aérienne. J’étais à la quête des premières vues de Paris qu’avait prises Nadar depuis un ballon captif. À défaut de ces images, définitivement manquantes, j’avais parcouru, après la Grande Arche, les derniers kilomètres de la Voie Royale, cette prodigieuse perspective historique partie du Louvre — rare exemple de frise chronologique implémentée dans une structure urbanistique.J’avais en réalité un peu dévié de la ligne droite pour aller voir les tours Nuages d’Emile Aillaud, le Facteur Cheval du modernisme, dont je connaissais déjà les autres chefs d’œuvres d'architecture naïve, les nouilles chinoises de Grigny et le spaghetti de Pantin.C’était précisément l’usage que j’avais fait de l’application Plans : j’étais parti à la recherche de tous les groupements de tour qu’elle m’avait permis d’identifier, sur mon iPad. Je les faisais tourner avec deux doigts, comme un éclaireur qui marcherait autour d’un donjon, avant de les immortaliser, sous leur plus bel angle, par une capture d’écran.Un éclaireur autour d’un donjon : c’était exactement cela, qui m’avait fasciné. Les guerres territoriales entre Les Tarterêts de Corbeil et les Pyramides d’Evry avaient marqué mon enfance. La notion de cité, telle qu’elle avait été définie, à partir des années 80, dans le second âge des grands ensembles, l’âge du déclin, avait conservé un cachet médiéval. Ici, vivaient guetteurs et trafiquants, condottieres à la tête d’une écurie de go-fast et entretenant des chenils remplis de mâtins rares et dangereux. Ici, l’État central ne remplissait plus ses tâches régaliennes, ici la modernité laïque était entrée en crise. Mais ce que j’avais découvert, en collectionnant ces captures d’écran, c’était à quel point l’urbanisme de la banlieue parisienne était, strictement, d’obédience médiévale. On était passé, d’un seul mouvement et sans même s’en rendre compte de Château-Gaillard à la Cité 4000, du Donjon de Vincennes aux tours de Sarcelles, du château de Gisors aux choux fleurs de Créteil.J’ai même retrouvé la colonne détruite du désert de Retz dans le babylonien château d’eau de Noisiel.Des hauteurs de Rosny à celle de Chanteloup, du plateau de Clichy à la dalle d’Argenteuil, on avait bizarrement livré des pastiches inconscients de la grande architecture militaire médiévales : les environs de Paris s’étaient retrouvés à nouveau fortifiés, la vieille tour de Montlhéry n’était plus solitaire, et même les immeubles de briques rouges qui avaient succédé à l’enceinte de Thiers évoquaient des murailles.
Et ce que j’avais initialement pris pour des anomalies, des accidents malheureux du post-modernisme, les grand ensembles voûtés et cannelés de Ricardo Boffil, étaient peut-être ce qui exprimait le mieux tout cela — ou du moins qui clôturaient avec le génie le plus clair cet âge des grands ensembles.
Car c’était cela, ces Carcassonnes, ces Acropoles, ces Atlandides qui surnageaient avec le plus de conviction au milieu des captures d’écrans de ruines médiévales qui s’accumulaient sur mon bureau.
Si décriées, dès leur construction, pour leur kitch intolérable ces mégastructures me sont soudain apparues comme absolument nécessaires.
Si les Villes Nouvelles n’ont jamais existé, et persisteront dans la mémoire des hommes, elles le doivent à ces rêveries bizarres et grandioses, à ces hybridations impossibles entre les cités idéales de Ledoux et les utopies corbuséennes.
L’Aqueduc de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, les Espaces d’Abraxas à Marne-la-Vallée, les Colonnes de Saint-Christophe à Cergy-Pontoise sont les plus belles ruines du Grand Paris.
www.franceculture.fr/emissions/la-conclusion/ricardo-bofill immerssion dans le monde du logement social, l'univers des logements sociaux, des H.B.M au H.L.M - Retour sur l'histoire du logement collectif d'apres guerre - En Françe, sur l’ensemble du territoire avant, 4 millions d’immeubles étaient vétustes, dont 500.000 à démolir; au total 10% des logements étaient considérés comme insalubres et 40% réputés d’une qualité médiocre, et surpeuplés. C’est pour ces raisons que, à partir de 1954, le Ministre à la Reconstruction et au Logement évalue le besoin en logements à 2.000.660, devenant ainsi une priorité nationale. Quelques années plus tard à l’appel de l’Abbé Pierre, le journaliste Gilbert Mathieu, en avril 1957 publiait dans le quotidien Le Monde une série d’articles sur la situation dramatique du logement : Logement, notre honte et dénonçant le nombre réduit de logements et leur impitoyable état. Robert Doisneau, Banlieue après-guerre, 1943-1949 /Le mandat se veut triple : reconstruire le parc immobilier détruit durant les bombardements essentiellement du printemps/été 1944, faire face à l’essor démographique et enfin résorber l’habitat insalubre notamment les bidonvilles et les cités de transit. Une ambition qui paraît, dès le début, très élevée, associée à l’industrialisation progressive de la nation entre autre celle du secteur de la construction (voir le vidéo de l’INA du 17 juillet 1957 intitulée La crise du logement, un problème national. Cela dit, l’effort pour l’État français était d’une ampleur jamais vue ailleurs. La double nécessité de construire davantage et vite, est en partie la cause de la forme architecturale excentrique qui constituera les Grands Ensembles dans les banlieues françaises. Cinq caractéristiques permettent de mieux comprendre ce terme : la rupture avec le tissu urbain ancien, un minimum de mille logements, une forme collective (tours, barres) de quatre jusqu’à vingt niveaux, la conception d’appartements aménagés et équipés et enfin une gestion destinée pour la plupart à des bailleurs de logement social.
Pour la banlieue parisienne leur localisation s’est opérée majoritairement dans la périphérie, tandis que dans les autres cas, plus de la moitié a été construite dans le centre ville, le plus souvent à la limite des anciens faubourgs.
Architecture d’Aujourd’hui n° 46, 1953 p. 58-55
C’est le triomphe de l’urbanisme fonctionnel et rationaliste cher à Le Corbusier. Entre 1958 et 1973, cent quatre-vingt-quinze Zones à Urbaniser en Priorité (ZUP) sont créées, comprenant deux millions de logements, essentiellement de type populaire en Habitations à Loyer Modéré (HLM), mais pas exclusivement, remplaçant ainsi les anciennes Habitations à Bon Marché (HBM) crées en 1894. Selon le décret du 27 mars 1954 qui en fixe les conditions d’attribution, les bénéficiaires de la législation n’ont pas changé, ce sont toujours des « personnes peu fortunées vivant principalement de leur salaire », selon la loi Strauss de 1906. En 1953, tous les HLM voient leur surface maximale se réduire, en passant de 71 à 65 mètres carrés pour un quatre pièces. L’accès au logement des familles modestes se fera donc au détriment de la qualité et quantité de l’espace habité pour des familles nombreuses. À ce propos, le sociologue Thierry Oblet a bien montré comment se sont articulées les pensées des architectes et des ingénieurs modernistes, avec leur souci planificateur d’un État interventionniste[8] grâce à l’hégémonie du béton, de la ligne droite et de la standardisation de la construction.
Les exemples de cette architecture restent nombreux : de la Cité de 4000 (pour 4000 logements) à la Courneuve en Seine-Saint-Denis (93) aux logements de 15 étages aux balcons pétales, appelés « Chou-fleur » à Créteil en Val-de Marne (94) dessinés au début des années 70 par l’architecte Gérard Grandval. De la Cité des nuages à Nanterre dans les Hauts-de-Seine (92) à la Grande borne construite entre 1967 et 1971 sur le territoire des communes de Grigny et Viry-Châtillon, dans l’Essonne (91) en passant par la Noé à Chanteloup-les-Vignes dans le département des Yvelines (78) scénario du célèbre film La Haine[9] de Kassovits.
Récemment, plusieurs expositions photographiques se sont
concentrées sur cette nouvelle figure de l’urbanisme fonctionnaliste français de l’après-guerre. Par exemple Toit&Moi, 100 ans de logement social (2012), Les Grands ensembles 1960-2010 (2012) produite par l’école supérieure d’arts & médias de Caen/Cherbourg, selon un projet du Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication. Enfin l’exposition Photographie à l’œuvre, (2011-2012) d’Henri Salesse, photographe du service de l’inventaire du Ministère de la Reconstruction et de l’Urbanisme et Voyage en périphérie (2012) de Cyrus Cornut. Il s’agissait là non seulement d’un progrès matériel, mais aussi démocratique, donnant ainsi à chaque citoyen, la possibilité d’accéder à son petit appartement doté de tous les conforts de l’époque. La recherche d’économie et de rapidité dans la conduite des chantiers portent à l’utilisation du béton comme matériel privilégié et à des plans architecturaux aussi simples que possible avec la réalisation de logements standardisés, dont les barres et les tours deviennent les figures principales : Au mitan des années cinquante, apparurent d’étranges formes urbaines. Des immeubles d’habitation de plus en plus longs et de plus en plus hauts, assemblés en blocs qui ne s’intégraient pas aux villes existantes. Ces blocs s’en différenciaient ostensiblement et parfois comme systématiquement, s’en isolaient. Ils semblaient faire ville à part. Surtout ils ne ressemblaient pas à ce qu’on avait l’habitude d’appeler ville. Et leur architecture aussi, qui était tellement déroutante. On les a nommés » grands ensembles. Cité de l’Abreuvoir, Bobigny (93), 2003 (Inventaire général du Patrimoine, Région Ile de France / Stéphane Asseline)
Bref, entre 1946 et 1975 le parc immobilier français passe de 12,7 millions à 21 millions de logements. Environ 8 millions de ceux-ci sont neufs, construits entre 1953-1975 – dont la moitié sous forme de grands ensembles – et près de 80 % des logements grâce à une aide de l’État avec des crédits publics. Le nombre de logements sociaux passe de moins de 500.000 à près de 3 millions, dont 43 % en région parisienne, où la demande est la plus forte[11]. Ce qui témoigne d’un effort énorme. Secrétariat d’État à la Reconstruction et au Logement, Supplément du logement en 1954, cité par Bachmann, C. Le Guennec, N., Violences urbaines…Op.cit, p.24. Alors que l’hiver 1954 est particulièrement rigoureux, l’abbé Pierre lance un appel en faveur des sans-logis et déshérités et organise des collectes de vêtements et de nourriture pour les plus démunis. Cela nous rappelle également que les inégalités sociales restaient particulièrement importantes à l’époque, malgré les débuts de la croissance économique, et que la crise du logement n’était pas encore complètement résolue. Danièle Voldman, La reconstruction des villes françaises de 1940 à 1954 : histoire d’une politique, Paris, L’Harmattan, 1997. Les Actualités françaises, La crise du logement, un problème national, 17 juillet, 1957, in fresques.ina.fr/…/la-crise-du-logement-un-probleme-n…, consulté le 20/02/2014. C’est l’urbaniste Marcel Rotival dans un numéro d’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui de juin 1935 (vol.1, n°6, juin 1935, p.57) qui propose pour la première fois cette terminologie pour désigner les Habitations à Bon Marché (HBM) et leur transformation en Habitations à Loyer Modéré (HLM), par la loi du 21 juillet 1951: « Nous espérons, un jour, sortir des villes comme Paris, non seulement par l’avenue des Champs Elysées, la seule réalisation de tenue sans laquelle Paris n’existerait pas, mais sortir par Belleville, par Charonne, par Bobigny, etc., et trouver harmonieusement disposés le long de larges autostrades, au milieu de grands espaces boisés, de parcs, de stades, de grandes cités claires, bien orientées, lumineusement éclairées par le soleil. » Largement reprise depuis les années 1950 dans le jargon administratif et public, elle apparaît pour la première fois dans un texte officiel qu’en 1973 avec la Circulaire Guichard, alors Ministre de l’Aménagement du territoire, de l’Equipement, du Logement et du tourisme. Celui-ci met un terme à la politique initiée après-guerre afin « d’empêcher la réalisation des formes d’urbanisation désignées généralement sous le nom de “grands ensembles”, peu conforme aux aspirations des habitants et sans justification économique sérieuse ». Paradoxalement, le terme de grands ensembles s’officialise donc au moment même où ils son mis en question. ZUP est un acronyme qui signifie Zone à Urbaniser en Priorité. Elles ont été créées par le décret N°58-1464 du 31 décembre 1958, afin de planifier et d’encadrer sur le territoire national, le développement urbain pour répondre à la carence de logements face à l’accroissement démographique et favoriser enfin la résorption de l’habitat insalubre. Oblet, Thierry, Gouverner la ville. Les voies urbaines de la démocratie moderne, Paris, PUF, 2003. En particulier par l’intermédiaire de la Société centrale de construction et de la Société centrale pour l’équipement du territoire, créées au milieu des années 1950 en tant que filiales de la Caisse des dépôts et consignations.

www.dailymotion.com/video/xw6lak?playlist=x34ije - Rue neuve 1956 la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, villes, villages, grands ensembles réalisation : Jack Pinoteau , Panorama de la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, ce film de commande évoque les villes et villages français détruits puis reconstruits dans un style respectant la tradition : Saint-Malo, Gien, Thionville, Ammerschwihr, etc. ainsi que la reconstruction en rupture avec l'architecture traditionnelle à Châtenay-Malabry, Arles, Saint Étienne, Évreux, Chambéry, Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Abbeville, Le Havre, Marseille, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque. Le documentaire explique par exemple la manière dont a été réalisée la reconstruction de Saint-Malo à l'intérieur des rempart de la vieille ville : "c'est la fidélité à l'histoire et la force du souvenir qui a guidé l'architecte". Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ». Dans un deuxième temps est abordé le chapitre de la construction des cités et des grands ensembles, de l’architecture du renouveau qualifiée de "grandiose incontestablement". S’il est précisé "on peut aimer ou de ne pas aimer ce style", l’emporte au final l’argument suivant : les grands ensembles, c'est la campagne à la ville, un urbanisme plus aéré, plus vert." les films caravelles 1956, Réalisateur : Jack Pinoteau (connu pour être le metteur en scène du film Le Triporteur 1957 qui fit découvrir Darry Cowl) www.dailymotion.com/video/xuz3o8?playlist=x34ije - www.dailymotion.com/video/xk1g5j?playlist=x34ije Brigitte Gros - Urbanisme - Filmer les grands ensembles 2016 - par Camille Canteux chercheuse au CHS -Centre d'Histoire Sociale - Jeanne Menjoulet - Ce film du CHS daté de 2014 www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDUBwVPNh0s … L'UNION SOCIALE POUR L'HABITAT le Musée des H.L.M. musee-hlm.fr/ union-habitat.org/ - EXPOSITION :LES 50 ANS DE LA RESIDENCe SALMSON POINT-Du JOUR www.salmsonlepointdujour.fr/pdf/Exposition_50_ans.pdf - Sotteville Construction de l’Anjou, le premier immeuble de la Zone Verte sottevilleaufildutemps.fr/2017/05/04/construction-de-limm... - www.20minutes.fr/paris/diaporama-7346-photo-854066-100-an... - www.ladepeche.fr/article/2010/11/02/940025-140-ans-en-arc... dreux-par-pierlouim.over-blog.com/article-chamards-1962-9... missionphoto.datar.gouv.fr/fr/photographe/7639/serie/7695...

Kurokawa Onsen is one of Japan's most attractive hot spring towns, located in the middle of Kyushu about 20 kilometres north of Mount Aso. Well coordinated efforts by the town to maintain a pleasant, traditional atmosphere have kept Kurokawa free of the massive concrete hotels, neon advertisements and loud colors that are encountered in many of Japan's other resort towns.
Instead, Kurokawa's townscape is dominated by natural colors and materials, wooden buildings, earthen walls, stone stairs and a river flowing through. The town center, located in a forested valley, is compact and easily explored on foot, except for a few ryokan which are located less centrally.
The town's lanes are lined by ryokan, public bath houses, attractive shops and cafes, a small shrine and bridges that lead over the river directly to ryokan entrances. A walk through town is particularly enjoyable in yukata and geta sandals provided by one's ryokan. An information center, where maps and other information can be obtained, is also found in the town centre.
Kurokawa is not only known for its attractive town, but also for the outstanding outdoor baths (rotenburo) of its ryokan some of which are located right besides a gushing river or impress by their large sizes. The larger baths with good views tend to be located a little bit outside of the town center, while some of the more central ryokan attract with smaller but historic baths, which were already enjoyed by the feudal lords of nearby Kumamoto Castle.

Women's Black Ave MBT Sneaker from www.onlineairjordanmall.com just 133.99 USD for free shipping.MBT Wave Shoes looks simple yet stylish elements. This style of product will not only change how you use your muscles, but will improve the use of your joints and spine. Specially cheap MBT Shoes designed sole, combined with correct training, to achieve a more active and healthy posture and walk.
At MBT it is our philosophy to keep the body in motion. We believe motion is key to helping find and maintain the right balance in life. At MBT, we can help achieve this through our unique shoe design that combines a perfect balance of function with style. MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) was born in 1996 when we discovered that natural instability can have positive effects on the human body. We made this discovery by observing the wonderfully agile Masai people walking barefoot on natural, uneven ground. Seeing these people in action made us realize that the human body is simply not designed to walk or stand on the hard, flat surfaces of modern society. So we set out to develop a new kind of footwear, one that would mimic walking on soft, uneven ground. The results have been dramatic and revolutionary. MBTs are now sold in more than 55 countries. MBT's patented Masai Sensor and Balancing Area creates instability that your body instinctively attempts to correct. This corrective action can help add more movement into everyday life, lead to increased muscle activation and help improve posture and balance.
When walking in MBTs, the ground no longer feels flat and stable, so the body has to compensate and create stability, so you'll always be able to do more for your body while standing and walking See it in www.onlineairjordanmall.com/mbt-ave-and-mbt-katika/149-wo...
Each year since 1994 the Youth in Arts Program of Marin County has hosted an Italian Street Painting Festival in San Rafael, California. It is a lively event in which 200 chalk artists – modern day madonnari – create large, ephemeral street paintings.
My son Charlie (barleybenton on Flickr) did a fine job photographing the festival in 2008 and 2009 using a camera mounted on a painter’s pole. This year he invited me to come along. This year Charlie is using a Canon SD800is mounted in a new servo-controlled cradle and lofted atop an 11-meter carp pole. The camera is controlled using an Arduino-based system of his own design that allows him to aim the camera with a joystick while watching a video feed. It is a nifty rig that can also make automatic panoramic sweeps with a single command.
Charlie’s approach has been to shoot relatively close views of the chalk art under diffuse light. To do this he waits for the late afternoon hours when neighboring buildings shade the street. In the absence of sharp shadows Charlie’s photographic compositions are nice and clean and thus it is easier to read the chalk works
I decided to work a different thread by shooting from a higher vantage point, often with Panasonic's 18-mm equivalent wide-angle adapter, and doing so when the sun created strong shadows. So this set addresses the general context of the festival and tries to juxtapose the two-dimensional paintings with the three-dimensional crowd.
I have posted an unusually large set of images from the Italian Street Painting Festival in response to queries from passerby and artists who promised to look for them on Flickr. If you are one of the artists or one of the sponsors and would like a high-resolution file, just send me an e-mail (crisp at berkeley edu).
