Lori Deiter and I planned to hike the Falls Trail on Feb 1st... It was decided to hike in from Rte 118 up to Onondaga Falls on Glen Leigh. Mark Van Scyoc and his friend, Doug Reese met us in the parking lot and we hiked up together to B. Reynolds and they left to hike up to the base of Ganoga Falls. My favorite / highlight of the day was the ice leading up to and around Ozone Falls - awesome.
There are sign-in sheets (Rte 118 and Lake Jean - so they know who and how many are on the trail in case of an accident) to fill out.. And you should have these items to safely hike the Falls Trail during Winter: Crampons, Ice Axe and Rope (~ 30ft). At the very minimum, Trekking Poles and Micro Spikes / Ice Cleats for your hiking boots. Trying to hike in sneakers is NOT advisable!

Why it works.
Steam in the top, compressed air out of the bottom. Dual action piston on top cycles automatically with a "Shortend Stroke" valve (that's the small rod in the center) to drive the main rod that compresses atmospheric air, intake from a filter, to a pressure vessel (tank) to maintain the brake line pressure. If the line is dumped, or slowly released, springs on each car in the train no longer hold the brakes away from the wheels, which apply the brakes until line pressure is restored, releasing the brakes by overcoming the springs. Each brake shoe is balanced in equilibrium with all the others, applying exactly the same dynamic pressure evenly along the entire train. There are many ways to compress air, this is the most common on steam locomotives.
Identical pumps can also be used to compress feed water into the boiler, so often there will be two compressors on the fireman's side of the engine. One to maintain the boiler water level and one to maintain the brake system air pressure.
Why not just use steam pressure? Steam pressure changes depending on the load of the locomotive and this isolates that variability. But more importantly, steam condenses into water when cooled, taking up less volume -decreasing the pressure - applying the brakes, and worse is the maintenance nightmare of water rusting the interior of the brake system parts. The moisture in the air, when compressed, precipitates out and is caught in the first pressure storage tank, which is why one finds a drain valve at the bottom of it.

Visitors to the Current show at the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, Hyde Park were directed by the Chapman Brothers with this message.
GET RID OF MEANING. YOUR MIND IS A NIGHTMARE.
Easier said than done when it comes to this art by the Chapman Brothers which features the familiar mutilated bodies and scenes of horrific torture and gruesome ritualised decapitations that do not necessarily contrive to horrify, as this sentence would appear to suggest.
The Chapman brothers are inclined to provide enough comforting context. We Monks were after all invited to enter a brand new swanky art gallery and no art lover as far as we are aware has thus far been harmed or traumatised by a Chapman image.
We entered cautiously and discovered the familiar grim images, scary in a "ghost train" kind of way. The Chapman Klansmen are comedy Klansmen with rainbow socks and comedy smiley faces. The Chapman crucified martyrs are nothing more than harmless corporate Ronald MacDonald effigies, and so very many of them as in the real world.
I found myself failing to "get rid of meaning" by comparing the Chapman Brothers to Richard Dadd, whose "Fairy Feller's" is arguably more horrific, given Dadd's state of mind, but far less horrifically explicit than the Chapman Brothers.
As far as we know the Chapman Brothers are not actually psychotic. They are more inclined to toy with the visitors most visitors go along with the toying. I could not fail to notice two American ladies failing to "get rid of the meaning" They provided me with an in-depth commentary on each particular scene of horror and mutilation as if Ronald MacDonald were a real person and these were scenes from a soap opera, a warped Nazi soap opera.
The miniature horror model show might also appeal to the model makers within all of us boys, seeking the same thrill you might get when you view an architect's model of a new airport or a shopping centre complete with little trees to provide context and scale.
For this reason I did wonder why The Chapman Brothers had not provided a model Hornby Nazi train-set to circulate about the corpses. Yes, I do believe that there is a train spotting model maker and dark grim humour within us all.
We Monks saw "Hell", the earlier Chapman Brothers work which featured similar miniature grotesque models in glass cases. These works which took years of endeavour to construct were destroyed in the cataclysmic MOMART fire in the 2004. They have now been recreated and re-imagined somewhat in the same spirit.
I discussed this with a young "curator" in the gallery. I discovered that the new Serpentine Sackler Gallery was in fact an 1805 listed building and formerly a depositary for gunpowder and such. I again found myself failing to "get rid of the meaning", so I changed the subject and I told her that I was a little scared to go into the central section behind the black curtain, from where I could hear the sounds of horror. She said that I should not be scared and that all would be well if I were to enter..
Beyond the black curtain masked members of the KKK were sitting amongst the visitors watching a Chapman movie. There I observed Mrs Monk sitting next to a KKK pointy hat both of them watching the horror movie as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
There was a Chapmanesque resonance in the movie but no fearful reaction from the visitors. Just the occasional knowing laugh.
he pyramid-shaped building houses an unusual collection of predominantly 1950s to 1990s vehicles in various stages of customisation, hard to find in any other car museum, www.enam.ae/index.html
This museum is an amazing private collection of H.H. Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan.
The collection houses a vast array of cars and other vehicles; some seemingly bought from owners there and then, such as a customised camper van, others received as presents from all around the world. While some have been kept as originally intended, others have been modified to suit the Sheikh's preference.
You will find several Mercedes, one in each colour of the rainbow for each day of the week. And they are all fitted with conveniences such as refrigerators and TV. A number of other vehicles are also rainbow coloured or have a rainbow logo painted on them and have matching seats and hubcaps. There are a number of military vehicles into which children are allowed to climb; one even has a golfing range on top.
The Dodge comes in all sizes but none is as impressive as the 5-metre-high model with a complete apartment under its roof. It was parked next to some dune-bashing monstrosities and a shiny see-through disco car. including:
an 8 times oversized replica of a Dodge Power Wagon truck, this is a towable caravan and has four bedrooms inside.
A very detailed replicable of an 1890s Benz three-wheeler.
A collection of 4-wheel-drive vehicles.
A small collection of identical Mercedes limousines, representing together all colours of the rainbow, are the trademark of the owner.
A number of 1950s American and 1970s European limousines with their large dimensions build a striking contrast to a sizable collection of bubble and mini cars in the adjacent row.
some 10 prototypes and racing cars.
With a workshop located behind the building, all exhibits are in excellent condition and several are roadgoing. There are also many gaps in the displays with no explanation. Only a handful of vehicles have information placards at all and even then it is simple specification info. There is no history or provenance provided.
On display outside are:
a 4:1 scale Jeep
a 4:1 scale Land Rover
Lockheed Tristar L-1011-385-1-114 MSN 193N-1093 the former British Airways Loch Fyne
The last few days have been a flurry of activity with building on the river and wet lands. But, in between I have gone to a bunch of new places and back to some of my favorite venues.
Xavier & I love to salsa. So we did a search and wham, we found >Latin Palace Dance Club. Couples were dancing in dressy attire to wonderful salsa music. Wearing a tuxedo without a shirt and me in a short cocktail dress, it so reminded Xavier & me of Miami clubs.
A stopover at Organica to catch the last hour of DJ Qee's set woke us up with a nice psy jolt! So good to hear Qee's dynamic sounds and see old friends.
A brand new club called Fear FM sent me a tp. I got to meet owner/builder Cypher Webb. Beautifully built by Cypher, he was also spinning an awesome set of hardstyle and goth rock. I had a blast there. Cypher is also recruiting DJ's so peeps, give him a shout!
It was so late on Thursday night (Fri morn?) that I just had to stop off and say hi to DJ Xavi at The Cave. Owner Tasty Hax was there, too. I run into her at every party!
Friday afternoon, I got a tp from one of the builders. I ended up at Blackhearts 80's club. I love the funkiness of this club. So simple. It feels like a rock n roll club. Halloween was coming and the Pillsbury Dough Boy showed up! LOL!
Late night, and Xavier & I headed for DJ Nebulae's set at Piranha. Xavi loves this club. He set his JMD Effects hud on and we were in psy heaven. We always have fun at Shad's club!
In between all the craziness, I hit New Berlin's Electro Smog. Gee... I can't seem to get enough of this place. Zap Hax was hosting and DJ djleftydc Denja was spinning a sweet set of tunes.
Another new place I landed upon was Le Ghetto Hype. This is a fun club of alternative and eclectic tunes. Owner DJ Frederick Neberle & partner ARNAUD Mureaux have built a wonderful place to hang.
Off to Divaz Lounge! DJ 8wall Wrigglesworth just sent me a tp! OMG, 8wall is spinning at Divaz.
I met 8wall at Dance Island last year and then over at Nutrie. He spins a very chill set of house and minimal tunes.
But, the highlight of my night was at Old Factory listening to DJ Jeangilles Anthony. This frenchman is an artist. Beautiful industrial noise layered with a hardstyle beat... then transcending into experimental music... psychedelic experimental noise. LOL! and I fell asleep there... just couldn't leave!
Late night on Friday, Xavier and I ended up at DJ Digital Francis' Le Pardis de Digital Nation. It was an after party and Digi was spinning. Xavi & Digi started a "stump me" game. I think Digital was very impressed with Xavier's musical knowledge. They bro-downed the entire night leaving me and DJ Snowkitty dumbfounded... 'cause neither of us knew any of the tunes. LOL! I think Xavier has a new favorite dj now!

We arrived at Innisfree as soon as it opened at 10AM one mid-August morning when the entire Northeastern US was in the middle of a record heatwave. Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to make a quick 1.5 mile circle on the path around the deep glacial lake at the heart of this 150 acre garden before we wilted and had to return to our air conditioned car. The harsh mid-day light made photography challenging, as you can see. We learned that Innisfree, said by some to be one of the world's Ten Great Gardens, opens at sunrise on three occasions each year, and we are already planning another trip to the Hudson River Valley in the future when we hope we can see and photograph this amazing place under better conditions.
"Like the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China, Innisfree helps us to define what we mean by ‘civilization’. It’s one of the few places in this world that lived up to — nay, exceeded — my expectations."
David Wheeler, Editor, Hortus (2013)
"In the late 1920s, Walter Beck and his wife, avid gardener and heiress Marion Burt Beck, began work on Innisfree, their country residence in Millbrook, New York. Walter Beck’s fascination with Asian art influenced his painting, the collecting he and his wife pursued, and their ideas on garden design. In the 1930s, Beck discovered the work of 8th-century Chinese poet, painter and garden maker Wang Wei. Studying scroll paintings of his famed garden, the Wangchuan Villa, Beck observed that Wang created carefully defined, inwardly focused gardens and garden vignettes within a larger, naturalistic landscape. Wang’s place-making technique — christened “cup gardens,” by Beck — influenced centuries of Chinese and Japanese garden design. It is also the principal design motif in the Innisfree landscape. Like his Chinese predecessor, Beck created three-dimensional pictures in the garden, incorporating both rocks from the site and horticultural advice from his wife. Unlike Wang Wei, or perhaps more familiar figures like Lawrence Johnston, who used his cup-like rooms at Hidcote in England to draw one through a sequence of events and create an overall sense of place, Beck focused more on individual compositions. Relating these to each other and to the landscape as a whole was the genius of Lester Collins."
The genius of this place lies not so much in the ideas which the designers formulated for the cup gardens, many of which are disarmingly simple, but in the way they have been maintained over the years. Essentially, everything is allowed to settle into the prevailing spirit of the place; if it does not, it is removed. It is this sensitivity, care and attention to the qualities of landscape, natural and made, that make Innisfree such a memorable success.
Tim Richardson, Great Gardens of America (2000)
Western gardens are usually designed to embrace a view of the whole. Little is hidden. The garden, like a stage set, is there in its entirety, its overall design revealed in a glance. The traditional Chinese garden is usually designed so that a view of the whole is impossible. [It] requires a stroll over serpentine, seemingly aimless arteries. The observer walks into a series of episodes, like Alice through the looking glass." .

DE VLIEGERIJ EN ZIJN BETEKENIS VOOR HET MISSIEWERK
Een apart hoofdstuk over de missievliegerij lijkt me hier wel op z'n plaats, omdat de missie zonder dat bedrijf nooit had kunnen doen wat zij heeft gedaan.
Al lang was het duidelijk dat de missie in Nieuw Guinea op een gegeven moment gebruik zou moeten maken van eigen vliegtuigen. De bevoorrading van de posten over land zou op de duur een te grote belasting gaan vormen voor de plaatselijke bevolking. Bovendien zou de groei van de missie
belemmerd worden als er niet een betere en meer frequente manier zou worden gevonden om de posten in het binnenland te voorzien in hun materiële en personele behoeften. Missievliegerij was noodzakelijk wilde de missie blijven functioneren en uitgroeien. Gestart in 1958 zou de missievliegerij rond de jaren 1965-1969 zorgen voor een grote verandering: een verandering die niet alleen de bevoorrading van de posten betrof, maar ook het contact van de posten onderling. De radiozenders, die noodzakelijk waren voor het vliegverkeer, zorgden er ook voor dat de communicatie tussen de missionarissen beter en intensiever werd.
Over het ontstaan en de geschiedenis van de missievliegerij wil ik het hier niet hebben: die is elders al uitvoerig beschreven. Ook niet hoe missionarissen een eigen vliegveld moesten aanleggen en de problemen die daaraan verbonden waren, want zelf heb ik nooit een vliegveld hoeven aan te leggen en zijn mij de zorgen daaromtrent bespaard gebleven. Wel heb ik van mijn medebroeders vernomen dat het aanleggen van een vliegveld een heidens karwei was. Meestal volgde de ene ontgoocheling na de ander, voordat het vliegveld eindelijk goedgekeurd werd door de piloten. Niet dat de piloten in hun eisen onredelijk waren, maar zij waren zich terdege bewust van hun verantwoordelijkheden wilden het graag zelf ook overleven.
Meestal moest zo'n missionaris een paar jaar al zijn energie geven aan het aanleggen van een eigen strip. Wanneer hij dan eindelijk dacht klaar te zijn en een testvlucht kreeg (vlucht over de strip heen), kreeg hij meestal te horen wat er nog aan mankeerde wilde de strip goedgekeurd worden. En
met dat "wat er nog aan mankeerde" was hij weer vier maanden of een half jaar bezig... En dan nog was het niet zeker of zijn strip door de piloten voor 100 procent vliegwaardig werd bevonden. Meestal volgde er dan wel een
testlanding en als die goed verliep kwam de piloot een paar keer met een halve lading. Maar om een volle lading te krijgen moest er meestal dit of dat nog "even" in orde gemaakt worden. En dan kon de missionaris er weer "even" tegen aan gaan staan. En dan te bedenken dat die vliegveldjes vaak op een schuine kant van een helling lagen of achter een bergje, dat de aan- of uitvlucht bemoeilijkte. Had er eenmaal een crash plaats gevonden, dan had het vliegveld van die missionaris een slechte naam bij de piloten. Het gevolg was dat bij slecht weer een vlucht op zijn vliegveld al snel gecanceld werd.
Het aanleggen van zo'n strip was veel tijdrovender en problematischer dan een keer een opvoer over land organiseren.
Vliegen in Nieuw Guinea, vooral in het bergland, was een riskante zaak. Bergen, regen, mist, verraderlijke windvallen, snel wisselende weersomstandigheden: het waren allemaal dingen waar een piloot regelmatig mee te maken kreeg. Als piloot in Nieuw-Guinea moest je de risico's op hun juiste waarde weten in te schatten: niet te voorzichtig (want dan kwam je nergens), maar ook niet onbezonnen. Een flexibele geest was beslist noodzakelijk: op de juiste momenten moest je kunnen improviseren. Een goed oriëntatievermogen was eveneens gewenst, want het instrumentenbord van een Cessna was maar beperkt.
Bij aanvang van het eigen missievliegbedrijf was men er van uit gegaan dat het bedrijf door paters gerund zou worden. Dus ook de piloten zouden paters zijn. De achterliggende gedachte hiervan was o.a. dat de missionaris op een eenzame post zodoende ook eens een medebroeder op bezoek zou
krijgen. In praktijk is dat nog al tegengevallen. Die paters-piloten hadden er meestal nog een andere functie bij, zodat een nachtje overblijven bij een medebroeder er meestal niet in zat.
Waren priesters nu geschikt als piloot? Theo Jansen, een lekenpiloot, zei me eens:: "Paters hebben een verkeerde opleiding en instelling om piloot te zijn!" Ik geloof dat ik begreep wat hij wilde zeggen. Als je piloot bent, heb je
daaraan een volledige en verantwoordelijke job, die niet toelaat dat je er ook nog iets bij doet. Bovendien worden paters voor alles en nog wat gevraagd en kunnen vaak maar moeilijk weigeren. Een leken-piloot heeft daar minder last van: hij wordt veel minder voor iets anders gevraagd en kan gemakkelijker weigeren.
Van de drie paters die in Hilversum een pilotenopleiding hadden gevolgd, werd er één al direct bij aankomst in Nieuw-Guinea afgekeurd: hij bleek zich onvoldoende te kunnen oriënteren tussen de bergen. Bovendien was hij te zenuwachtig. De tweede maakte al spoedig een crash, waarbij de vier inzittenden ternauwernood aan de dood ontsnapten: van verder vliegen zag hij maar af. En de derde vloog in de mist tegen een boom : hij overleefde het niet. Het was dus geen succes, die vliegende paters franciscanen. Evenmin bij de broeders franciscanen. De eerste broeder verongelukte al bij de tweede of derde solovlucht: hij bracht het er gelukkig levend vanaf. De tweede broeder piloot vloog tegen een berg, waarbij alle inzittenden om het leven kwamen.
Lag het misschien aan de franciscanen dat het zo vaak mis ging? Het begon er wel op te lijken, want een broeder van de Kruisheren, die na zijn uittreden piloot bij de missievliegerij werd, bleek een zeer bekwame piloot te zijn. Maar ook hij kwam na jarenlang uitstekend vliegen bij een ongeluk om. Van de leken-piloten echter is, ofschoon ze bijna allemaal wel eens gecrasht zijn, niemand omgekomen (behalve dan die uitgetreden broeder en een Indonesische piloot). Vliegen was dus beslist niet zonder gevaren, en alle missionarissen hebben dat op een of andere manier wel eens ondervonden. Allemaal hebben ze wel eens een hachelijk moment beleefd. Zelf heb ik twee keer in mijn rats
gezeten.
Vanuit Enarotali moest ik eens naar Moanemani. Ik zou als eerste afgezet worden en de piloot zou met twee andere passagiers doorvliegen naar Timeepa en dan naar de kust. Waarom weet ik niet, maar onderweg besloot de piloot (Theo Jansen) van de route af te wijken en eerst naar Timeepa te
gaan. Vermoedelijk omdat het daar tegen de middag nogal eens winderig kan zijn met het risico van een landing met staartwind. Pater Zwartjes in Timeepa gaf, voordat hij zich naar het vliegveld begaf, via de radiozender aan ons door dat er geen wind was. Maar nog voordat hij op het vliegveld was aangekomen (een kwartier lopen) was de wind opeens opgestoken. Terug naar huis gaan om ons via de zender voor die wind te waarschuwen, had geen zin meer: we waren al vlak bij de strip. De piloot zette de landing in, maar boven de strip merkte hij dat de wind te sterk was en hij besloot door te starten. De wind was echter zo sterk dat hij geen hoogte meer kon maken. We vlogen recht op een Ekagi-hut af. Ik dacht: dit is het einde. Rakelings scheerden we over de hut. Daar waren we goed vanaf gekomen. Maar meteen deed zich het volgende probleem al voor: rechtdoor vliegen was onmogelijk vanwege de bergen die meteen achter de strip opdoemden.
De piloot was dus gedwongen om met geringe hoogte een bocht te nemen. Dat lukte hem ook wonder wel, al was het dat we tussen de bomen door vlogen. Misschien droom ik daarom nog wel eens dat we tussen bomen door vliegen en er niet uit kunnen komen. Een tweede landingspoging lukte beter, maar toen we uitstapten stond de piloot te trillen op zijn benen. Later hoorden we dat zich drie mensen in die hut bevonden en dat het vliegtuig alle dakbedekking van het huis had weggezogen.

LA AVENTURA TÉCNICA DEL "D24 - Carrera"
"La evolución mas saliente que tuvo la "D24" fue el relativo a su chasis, al motor y ala posición de varios de sus componentes.
El motor de 3284 cc - 88 x 90 mm- con potencia variable de 245 a 6200 RPM a 265 CV a 6500 RPM, fue transformado luego de su participación en Nürburgring, a carter seco. Le redujeron la distancia entre ejes de 2600 mm a 2400 mm, adoptando el puente De Dion que pasaba sobre la caja de cambio, doble elástico cantilever y bieletas paralelas superiores. Un tanque de aceite estaba bajo el guardabarros trasero derecho. Un tanque de combustible centrado sobre la parte posterior trasera de 110 litros era suplementado por otro de 50 litros para los casos de competiciones de largo kilometraje. La tracción mejoró con el agregado de un diferencial autoblocante a disco, del tipo ZF.
Resultó esta una unidad de buena tenida, maniobrabilidad y frenaje, fue preparado para la IV Carrera Panamericana de Méjico - 1953 ganada por Juan Manuel Fangio, en su versión de motor de 3100 cc - 80 x 85 mm - para dar mayor fiabilidad ante una tan larga competencia."

Carrera Panamericana
"La Carrera Panamericana, también llamada la Carrera (the Carrera, en inglés)1 , la Panamericana o solamente la Pana, es un evento deportivo de automovilismo tipo rally organizado anualmente a través de la República Mexicana.
Su historia se divide en dos etapas, la antigua u original, que se efectuó de 1950 a 1954, y la moderna, que se organiza desde 1988 hasta esta fecha. En la etapa actual la participación de modelos de automóviles se divide en 4 grupos y 9 categorías.6
El director de la división deportiva de Mercedes Benz en los años 50, el alemán Alfred Neubauer llegó a considerar la Carrera como una mezcla de las 24 Horas de Le Mans, la Mille Miglia, el Gran Premio de Trípoli y el autódromo Nürburgring.
La prueba atrajo la participación de las principales marcas de autos deportivos europeos como Ferrari, Porsche, Lancia, Talbot, Mercedes-Benz, Pegaso y Alfa Romeo."
(...)
1953
"La Carrera Panamericana de 1953 se caracterizó por los grandes accidentes.
El Lancia de Bonetto chocaba contra un muro en el pueblo de Silao Guanajuato, luego de haber brincado excesivamente rápido un vado que no estaba debidamente señalizado, y falleció.
Antonio Stagnoli y Giuseppe Scotuzzi sufren un pinchazo en su Ferrari en la zona de Oaxaca, que les provoca una espectacular salida que los obliga a abandonar.
Pegaso participó en esa edición con un coupé construido específicamente para la carrera, de portón trasero y barras contra zopilotes en el parabrisas.
La carrera fue dominada en esta edición por Lancia con su D24, un vehículo especialmente diseñado para la Panamericana, cuyo motor de 6 cilindros en V de 3096 cc, disponía de una potencia de 226CV con un peso total en su conjunto de 760 kg, con el cual consigue las tres primeras plazas de la prueba, ocupadas, respectivamente, por el argentino Juan Manuel Fangio, aun sin haber ganado ninguna etapa, y los Italianos Taruffi y Castellotti."

www.decorobra.com/revestir-paredes-de-forma-original-prac...
Cada temporada vemos nuevas propuestas que nos permiten elegir entre una amplia gama de posibilidades cuando se trata de decorar nuestros espacios en el hogar, y uno que recibe mayor atención es la pared.
Es fácil cansarse de la misma antigua pintura y los tradicionales empapelados, pero si no se analizan todos los aspectos de la decoración del ambiente en cuestión, las alternativas de revestimientos de pared, pueden ser demasiado audaces ya que es más complicado para quitarlos si no nos agradan.
Tela
La tela se está convirtiendo en una opción cada vez más popular y creativa en la invención de revestimientos de paredes, y se puede utilizar de muchas maneras. Una opción es cubrir una pared completa. Cubriendo toda una pared con tela puede ser sutil o descollante, dependiendo del tejido utilizado. Hay dos formas de aplicarlas : colgarlas o graparlas.
Si se es hábil con una máquina de coser, colgando la tela, no sólo es simple, si no muy chic y menos permanente. Se corta la tela de aproximadamente 5 cm más largo que la altura de la pared, se realizan dobladillos en los bordes, y se cosen en la parte superior e inferior, un doblés de 2,5 cm para pasar una varilla de tensión. La anchura del material depende del gusto.
Si prefiere grapar la tela, cortarla primero agregando 1,5 cm en todos los lados a la medida deseada. Se pegan los bordes en un cartón largo o en tiras muy finas de una madera blanda. Luego, se giran las tiras y se vuelve a pegar. Esto crea un panel de tela que se puede grapar con grapas de alta resistencia o clavarlas a la pared.
Alternativas con papel
El de empapelar no es el único papel interesante que se puede utilizar para cubrir las paredes. Se pueden utilizar los periódicos o papel de seda. Ambos pueden ser aplicados con una mezcla de goma de pegar y agua, y ambos dan un toque creativo.
Revestimientos de madera
A pesar de que los revestimientos de madera puede parecer aburrido después de hablar sobre los de telas o papeles, proporciona un descanso respecto de la pintura y papel tradicional de empapelado. Si se quiere algo diferente, que tenga un poco de pop, pero no se atreven a cubrir una pared completa con papel de periódico, pues, los revestimientos de madera pueden ser una buena solución.
Muchas tiendas de mejoras para el hogar ofrecen nuevos kits de paneles de madera que no sólo hacen más fácil la instalación, sino que a menudo son menos costosos que los paneles de madera tradicionales.

Little changed since its construction in 1924, the ropeway is used to bring shale from a quarry on Claughton Moor, approximately a mile and a quarter distant from, and 750 ft above, Hanson Brick Works.
At the quarry, shale is lifted by a front loading shovel and moved up a ramp to be tipped into an initial crusher, and fed into the loading bunker, from which the ropeway buckets are loaded. Having made the journey to the works, the shale is either tipped into dry stock, or loaded into a dump-truck and moved into the stocking area.
The remaining ropeway is one of two, originally constructed to serve the east and west works. That to the west works was taken out of use when that works ceased operation in 1990. The trestles of the former route to the west works remain, although the rope is now gone. Both routes started together at the quarry and radiated out in basically straight lines, to cross the A683 about a quarter of a mile apart. The remaining route has 26 trestles and from the works, initially climbs gently across an open field before climbing more steeply up the wooded valley side. About half way into its journey, the ropeway emerges from the woods to climb more gently across open moorland, before finally following the line of a narrow tributary valley for the last section. A couple of trestles before the top, there is a slight bend to the right to take the route into the top station.
The ropeway is powered by gravity. The extra weight of the loaded buckets pulls the empties back to the loading point. There is a braking system to maintain the correct speed and allow the rope to be brought to a controlled stand when required.
When "on the rope" the buckets are suspended from a hanger, the head of which has two free running wheels, and two clips. The clips sit on top of the rope, to which they are held fast by a combination of gravity and friction between the rope and the clips. As a bucket approaches the top or bottom station, the wheels engage with a rising Bull rail to lift the clips off the rope. The bucket is then free to run along this rail, which allows it to be manually controlled during the loading and unloading processes.
The loading and unloading operations require two men at each end of the ropeway and are achieved in an average time of 20 to 30 seconds.
At the loading point the first operator catches the bucket as it comes off the up rope onto the guide rail and guides it to a stop underneath the loading chute then returns to take the next bucket. The second operator loads the bucket, pushes it around the guide rail then releases it onto the down rope at the correct moment to maintain the desired speed of the moving rope. Typically this is when the previously loaded bucket can be seen to be two trestles into its journey. This maintains the optimum weight distribution between upward moving empty and downward moving filled buckets.
The ropeway generally operates with between 40 and 46 buckets with a round trip for an individual bucket of about 32 minutes. The daily capacity is 250 tonnes.
Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

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.

Смотреть христианский фильм на реальных событиях «Честность бесценна» Только честные войдут в Царство Небесное
Чжэнь Чэн был владельцем ремонтной мастерской. Он был добрым, честным и занимался бизнесом, соблюдая все правила. Он никогда никого не обманывал, но заработанных денег едва хватало на содержание семьи. Спустя время член семьи, который также был мастером, убедили его использовать неписаные правила ведения бизнеса. Чжэнь Чэн начал верить в поговорки, которые представляют сатанинскую философию, такие как: «Человек без дополнительного дохода никогда не разбогатеет, также как лошадь, не поевшая сена ночью, никогда не прибавит в весе», «Смелый умирает от сытости, робкий умирает от голода», «Деньги – это не самое главное, но без них ты ничего не сможешь сделать» и «На первом месте – деньги». Чжэнь Чен лишился чистой совести, которой он руководствовался прежде, и начал пускаться на различные ухищрения, чтобы зарабатывать больше денег. Несмотря на то, что его зароботки возросли, а уровень жизни улучшился, Чжэнь Чен тем не менее чувствовал себя несчастным, и его мучило чувство опустошенности; жизнь была бесцельной и наполненной страданиями.
После того как Чжэнь Чэн принял работу Всемогущего Бога последних дней, он понял, что Бог любит честных людей и презирает обман. Чжэнь Чэн также осознал, что быть честным – это единственный способ поступать как истинный человек и единственный способ достичь Божьей похвалы, и поэтому он поклялся быть честным человеком. Однако быть честным человеком в реальной жизни оказалось не так просто: с братьями и сестрами в церкви он мог быть предельно открытым, но смог бы он зарабатывать, обладая такими качествами в деловом мире? Не исключено, что он не только зарабатывал бы меньше, но мог столкнуться с большими убытками и риском потерять свою мастерскую. ...Перед лицом таких трудностей сможет ли Чжэнь Чэн честно вести свой бизнес? Какие неожиданные взлеты и падения произойдут в ходе этого? Какой будет его высочайшая награда?...

The Holy Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats.
“It is wonderful to see them, for nearly all are maimed by the snakes: one has lost a nose, another an ear; the skin of one is torn, another is lame: one is blind of one eye, another of both. And it is a strange thing that at the hour for their food, at the sound of a bell, they collect at the monastery and when they have eaten enough, at the sound of that same bell, they all depart together to go fight the snakes.” - The Venetian Francesco Suriano (1484)

Oddity Central
The Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats is regarded as a sacred cat haven in Cyprus, as it’s name has been linked to felines for almost 2,000 years.
The original monastery was built in 327 AD, by Kalokeros, the governor of Cyprus appointed by Constantine the Great, and patronised by Saint Helen, the mother of Constantine the Great. At that time, a terrible drought affected the whole of Cypus, and the entire island was overrun with poisonous snakes which made building the monastery a dangerous affair. Many of the inhabitants left their homes and moved off the island, for fear of the snakes, but Saint Helen came up with a solution to the plague – she ordered 1,000 cats to be shipped in from Egypt and Palestine to fight the reptiles.
In the following years, the cats did their duty, hunting and killing most of the snakes in the Akrotiri Peninsula, which soon came to be known as the “Cat Peninsula”. The monks would use a bell to call the cats to the monastery at meal time, and then the felines were dispatched to their snake-hunting duties. Pilgrims from all around Europe traveled to the Holy Monastery of Saint Nicholas to see its feline guardians, and the discovered documents of a Venetian monk describe them as scarred, missing various body parts, some completely blind as a result of their relentless battle against the snakes.
According to the writings of Father Stephen de Lusignan, in 1580, the Byzantine monks at the Monastery of Saint Nicholas were awarded the surrounding lands, on one condition – they had to take care of at least 100 cats and feed them at least twice a day. Legend has it, the cats were so well trained they knew that when the bell rang once they had to go hunting for snakes, and when it rang a second time, it was meal time at the monastery.
During the Turkish invasion, the Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats was completely destroyed and its residing monks slaughtered or taken into captivity. Left without food and shelter, the cats left and wandered around the island, which explains the large number of cats currently living in Cyprus. Even now, locals appreciate their help in getting rid of the snakes centuries ago, and take good care of them, even if they’re strays.
After being rebuilt and abandoned several times, the modern history of the Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats began in 1983, when it was assigned to a group of nuns. When they arrived there wasn’t a cat in sight, but the number of snakes was once again overwhelming, so they did exactly what Saint Helen did over 1,500 years ago – they brought in a couple of cats. Their numbers grew, over the years, and there are now six nuns at the monastery and over 70 felines. Many people bring abandoned cats to this place, and the nuns take them in.
The Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats receives a small subsidy from the government, but that isn’t enough to take care of the entire feline population, so the nuns rely on donations made by locals or cat-loving tourists.

Le procédé dit de coffrage glissant est illustré sur le chantier des tours Pablo Picasso à Nanterre. Le principe est de s'affranchir des échafaudages : le coffrage épouse le contour du bâtiment, il s'élève avec la construction et permet de réaliser simultanément l'ensemble des murs verticaux. Au centre du plancher de travail, une grue distribue en continu le ferraillage et le béton.

Le reportage se penche ensuite sur la préfabrication en usine. Ces procédés de préfabrication en usine selon le commentaire sont bien adaptés aux pays en voie de développement, cela est illustré dans le reportage par une réalisation en Libye à Benghazi. Dans la course à l'allégement des matériaux un procédé l'isola béton est présenté. Un chapitre sur la construction métallique explique les avantage de ce procédé. La fabrication de composants ouvre de nouvelles perspectives à l'industrie du bâtiment.

Le procédé dit de coffrage glissant est illustré sur le chantier des tours Pablo Picasso à Nanterre. Le principe est de s'affranchir des échafaudages : le coffrage épouse le contour du bâtiment, il s'élève avec la construction et permet de réaliser simultanément l'ensemble des murs verticaux. Au centre du plancher de travail, une grue distribue en continu le ferraillage et le béton.

Le reportage se penche ensuite sur la préfabrication en usine. Ces procédés de préfabrication en usine selon le commentaire sont bien adaptés aux pays en voie de développement, cela est illustré dans le reportage par une réalisation en Libye à Benghazi. Dans la course à l'allégement des matériaux un procédé l'isola béton est présenté. Un chapitre sur la construction métallique explique les avantage de ce procédé. La fabrication de composants ouvre de nouvelles perspectives à l'industrie du bâtiment.

la construction des Autoroutes en France - Les liaisons moins dangereuses 1972 www.dailymotion.com/video/xxi0ae?playlist=x34ije - Ministère de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire - Dotation par la France d'autoroutes modernes "nécessité vitale" pour palier à l'inadaptation du réseau routier de l'époque voué à la paralysie : le reportage nous montre des images d'embouteillages. Le ministre de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire dans les deux gouvernements de Pierre Messmer, de 1972 à 1974, Olivier Guichard explique les ambitions du programme de construction qui doit atteindre 800 km par ans en 1978. L'ouverture de section nouvelles va bon train : Nancy / Metz par exemple. Le reportage nous montre l'intérieur des bureaux d'études qui conçoivent ces autoroute dont la conception est assistée par ordinateurs dont le projet d'ensemble en 3D est visualisé sur un écran. La voix off nous informe sur le financement de ces équipements. Puis on peut voir des images de la construction du pont sur la Seine à Saint Cloud reliant l'autoroute de Normandie au périphérique, de l'échangeur de Palaiseau sur 4 niveau : record d'Europe précise le commentaire. Le reportage nous informe que des sociétés d'économies mixtes ont étés crées pour les tronçons : Paris / Lille, Paris / Marseille, Paris / Normandie. Pour accélérer la construction l’État a eu recours à des concessions privées par exemple pour le tronçon Paris / Chartres. "Les autoroutes changent le visage de la France : artères économiques favorisant le développement industriel elles permettent de revitaliser des régions en perte de vitesse et de l'intégrer dans le mouvement général de l'expansion" Sur le plan européen elles vont combler le retard de la France et réaliser son insertion. Images de l'inauguration de l'autoroute entre Paris et Bruxelles par le président Georges Pompidou. Le reportage rappel que l'autre fonction capitale des autoroute est de favoriser la sécurité. La question de la limitation de vitesse est posée au ministre de l’Équipement, qui n'y est favorable que sur certains tronçons. Un des facteur de sécurité selon le commentaire est l'humanisation des autoroutes : aires de repos, restaurants, signalisation touristiques... "Rien n'est impossible aux techniques modernes" nous apprend la voix off qui prend comme exemple le déplacement sur rail de 65 mètres d'un château classé afin de faire passer l'autoroute Lille / Dunkerque.Durée : 4 minutes 30 secondes
Sur les routes de France les ponts renaissent 1945 reconstruction de la France après la Seconde Guerre mondiale www.dailymotion.com/video/xuxrii?playlist=x34ije , Quelques mois après la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un triste constat s'impose : 5 944 passages sont coupés, soit plus de 110 km de brèches ; de nombreuses villes se trouvent isolées.Les chantiers s'activent dans toute la France pour "gagner la bataille des communications routières". Mais outre la pénurie de main d’œuvre, il faut faire face au manque de matériaux (béton, métal) et donc déployer des trésors d'imagination pour reconstruire les ponts détruits. Si le savoir faire des tailleurs de pierre est exploité, le plus spectaculaire est le relevage des ponts, comme le pont de Galliéni à Lyon, où 7 à 800 tonnes d'acier sont sorti de l'eau avec des moyens de l'époque. En avril 1945, il reste 5 700 ponts à reconstruire soit 200 000 tonnes d'acier, 600 000 tonnes de ciment, 250 000 m3 de bois, 10 millions de journées d'ouvrier, prix de l'effort de reconstruction.1945

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".

MAAM = Museo dell’Altro e dell’Altrove di Metropoliz_città meticcia.
Da streetartattack.blogspot.it/2013/10/district-913-roma.html:
Nato nel 2012, al termine del cantiere cinematografico e d’arte “Space Metropoliz”, il MAAM è un progetto di Giorgio de Finis. Contro-dipositivo situazionista e relazionale, si pone accanto e in concorrenza con le grandi istituzioni museali italiane e della capitale (il MAXXI e il MACRO), facendo della sua perifericità, della sua totale assenza di fondi, della sua non asetticità (il MAAM è un museo abitato) il suo punto di forza. Avviando un nuovo virtuoso rapporto tra arte e città e tra arte e vita, il Metropoliz si sta dotando, grazie al MAAM, di una pelle preziosa e di una collezione che l’aiuteranno a proteggersi dalla minaccia sempre incombente dello sgombero coatto. Il MAAM si prefigge di trasformare l’intera fabbrica occupata in un oggetto e in un soggetto d’arte collettiva. Gli artisti sono invitati a dare il loro contributo gratuitamente, interagendo con lo spazio e con gli abitanti. E non si può dire che non lo stiano facendo.
Oltre i “relitti” di Space Metropoliz (il telescopio di Gian Maria Tosatti, i muri dipinti di Sten & Lex, Lucamaleonte, Mr. Klevra, Hogre, la bandiera di Paolo Assenza, l’orto lunare di Fabio Pennacchia, il grande razzo costruito dagli abitanti della fabbrica occupata con l’aiuto di Stalker), la Pinacoteca Domestica Diffusa, oltre venti opere di arte contemporanea collocate nelle case degli abitanti di Metropoliz e fotografata da Carlo Gianferro, la “Stanza dei Giochi” (intervento site specific per la ludoteca di Metropoliz ad opera di Veronica Montanino e Alice Pasquini), la “Cattedralehouse_room#2” (opere di Cristiano Petrucci, Gianni Asdrubali, Veronica Montanino), il 5 ottobre il MAAM presenterà le nuove acquisizioni e i lavori realizzati nel corso dell’estate.
Le due nuove stanze d’artista, “Windows M” di Maddalena Mauri e ”Where are the flowers gone” di Micaela Lattanzio. L’intervento murario, tutto in polvere di grafite, che Maddalena Mauri realizza per il nuovo spazio galleria di Metropoliz, moltiplica le finestre della grande stanza dove un tempo stagionavano i salami della Fiorucci, invitando il mondo ad entrare. Un auspicio, per la fabbrica occupata, che coincide con il programma di eventi settimanali del nuovo spazio espositivo, uno dei dispositivi che il MAAM ha deciso di attivare per aprire con regolarità il cancello del 913 al quartiere e alla città, riducendo l’effetto enclave che pregiudizio e necessità di difendersi dallo sgombero rischiano di innescare. La porta “a saloon” della galleria che propone un enorme cuore diviso in due è un’opera di Paolo Angelosanto. La stanza di Micaela Lattanzio è invece uno spazio intimo, un invito alla “meditazione”, un’oasi di pace per chi, come il Chaplin di “Tempi moderni”, si trova incastrato ogni giorno nei meccanismi della metropoli (i suoi fiori di carta, oltre seimila, si liberano dagli ingranaggi e volano via…). Un luogo, questa preziosa stanza “fiorita”, che sembra condividere lo spirito delle stanze de Les Nymphéas di Monet all’Orangerie.
“District 913” tira via il telo anche sulla nuova “piazza” realizzata da Massimo Di Giovanni con L.U.N.A. una enorme sfera di ferro e legno che l’artista incastra tra le travi di un tetto crollato, che lo stesso Di Giovanni ha restaurato e messo in sicurezza). L’opera ha voluto rendere un omaggio all’idea della migrazione esoplanetaria alla conquista della luna narrata dalla favola contemporanea “Space Metropoliz” e all’idea che, lavorando tutti insieme, l’Altrove lo si possa alla fine portare sulla Terra. Altre grandi sfere saranno disseminate nella fabbrica da EPVS, a rendere il percorso difficile e claustrofobico (EPVS_ Bubbling 4 you #913# by EPVS).
Molto rilevanti anche i nuovi interventi di street art realizzati a Metropoliz. Dal grande muro d’ingresso sulla via Prenstina, firmato Borondo, e realizzato in collaborazione con la 999 Contemporary, alla meridiana di Rub Kendy (.R.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.), allo stencil di Lucamaleonte che riproduce, sulla facciata dell’ex-salumificio che guarda ai recenti scavi archeologici del lotto di fronte, il bassorilievo dei Musei Capitolini raffigurante la caccia al cinghiale. E ancora Alice Pasquini, Solo (con “Plan D, last level”), Diamond (con la porta “Welcome to Metropoliz”), Opiemme (“Questo muro ha un nuovo messaggio”). E ancora Giulio Vesprini, Gio Pistone, Cancelletto, omino71.
Tra le nuove opere acquisite dal MAAM segnaliamo quelle di Pablo Echaurren (“Suburbano disumano”), a cura di ARIA [rivista d’artista], Massimo Attardi (“Lang”, un omaggio all’autore di “Metropolis” che strizza l’occhio anche al gioco “facce di luna” di “Space Metropoliz”), Guendalina Salini (che ripropone in collezione permanente l’installazione “Dove comincia il lontano”), gli interventi murari di Marco Tamburro, Seboo Migone, Paolo Assenza, l’opera di Germano Serafini ”Composizione M”, quella di Michela de Mattei “Metropolitz. Pianoterra / piano, Terra” (a cura di Silvia Litardi), il lightbox di Salvatore Mauro “Pianeta dei Naufraghi”, i nuovi interventi di Santino Drago (”Sangue versato in mostra” e “Asilo politico”).

In getting students excited about the topics being discussed, he brings his own enthusiasm to the classroom. He works hard keep up with the research literature in the field, and brings to the table the experiences he has as the principal investigator of a genetics/molecular biology research lab. A “very approachable and straightforward” lecturer, he also puts all his lecture notes online, makes it clear what the quizzes and tests will focus on, “tries to keep the class’s stress levels to a minimum.” “He treats all his students with respect,” and is “always willing to meet with people.”
His courses include Genetics & Molecular Biology, Eukaryotic Molecular Genetics, and Biology in the Age of the Human Genome Project, which focuses on the science behind the Human Genome Project and the ways in which it will change our lives. Most of his teaching is done in the traditional lecture style (some case studies are used), which he supplements with animations. He encourages questions and comments from students (“even when it is a large class in a lecture hall”), and students say that “he is incredibly approachable and thoughtful and is passionate about genetics.”

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.
William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.
Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.
After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.
The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.
Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

“Republicans have chosen slogans and symbolism over substantive proposals,” said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) at a Center for American Progress Action Fund event Monday. Hoyer spoke at the event about congressional Republicans’ “lockstep opposition” to working with Democrats on crafting and passing major pieces of legislation this year that deal with serious challenges facing the country, including health care, climate change, and the economic stimulus. This stubbornness has earned Republicans—who are the minority party in Congress—the nickname “the party of no.”
Hoyer listed several examples of Republican obstructionism this year. House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) was quoted as saying that his party’s approach to the president’s agenda was going to be to “just say no.” Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) read a 300-page amendment to the House clean-energy and climate bill in June to delay a vote. And earlier this month Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH) circulated a “how-to” guide to all his Republican colleagues that outlined how Republicans can obstruct and hold up needed health care reforms in the Senate.
What makes this obstructionism worse, said Hoyer, is that Republicans aren’t putting forth any ideas of their own. Instead, they’re spending all of their energy criticizing Democrats and the president. Hoyer approached his friend and colleague Rep. Roy Blount (R-MO) and asked him for alternatives to the health care legislation the House passed last month. Blount didn’t offer Hoyer anything.
The Democrats may view the Republicans’ pigheaded strategy as benefitting them by causing the Republicans to be viewed as unproductive and negative. But Hoyer said “that is not good for Congress or our nation’s future.”
“When Congress doesn’t have two parties talking, less substance is debated openly,” Hoyer explained. Power devolves from Congress toward the Federal Reserve, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the courts. And the divisiveness does the public a disservice since people expect their representatives to do something about the issues they’ve deemed important, such as entitlement programs, out-of-control health care spending, and climate change.
Just because a party is in the minority doesn’t mean they have to unequivocally oppose everything the majority does. A “history of constructive minorities shows how much we should expect and demand of them,” Hoyer said. He pointed to the 1964 Civil Rights Act, when President Lyndon B. Johnson reached across the aisle to Senator Minority Leader Everett Dirksen (R-IL), who helped form a coalition to pass the bill and wrote parts of it. A more recent example is Senator Edward Kennedy’s (D-MA) push to help pass President George W. Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act in 2001.
Hoyer went on to say that, “I have not just talked this talk—I have walked it.” He has worked with Rep. Bob Ney (R-OH) on the Help America Vote Act and with Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) on the Americans with Disabilities Act, among others.
Hoyer thought pressure from the public and within the Republican party itself could overcome the deadlock in Congress. “The rank and file of the Republican party is not comfortable with ‘the party of no,’” he said, and the public expects lawmakers to “engage constructively.” The pressures facing the nation at times prevail over the pressures that divide it—this was true when House Speaker Newt Gingrich and President Bill Clinton balanced the budget in the late 1990s.
Republicans were able to step up earlier this year, as well. Hoyer highlighted the Republicans who voted for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in February. “There are still those willing to act,” he said.

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.

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.

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.
