This one took me a couple of tries before I really figured out what I wanted to do with it. I knew I wanted something with bright colors - something I've never really done before, not counting a few Mac clones I put together - and with a higher image:text ratio on the taskbar. But the rest took an unusual amount of trial and error.

I'm really surprised by how much I'm liking the double-height taskbar. I'll probably go back to the single eventually, but it's nice to discover the flexibility. What I've done here is created artificial space for a few Rainmeter skins by adding the Quicklaunch and Links toolbars, which are, of course, empty. I suppose this could easily be mistaken for a Windows 7 taskbar; I'll have to try and duplicate it once I've made the switch. (If anyone knows how to center the taskbar tabs when there's only one row, please let me know.)

Rollover the notes for more details; I've added plenty, including some sneak previews of the new skins I'll be slipping into the Enigma 2.6 patch release. :)

I proooooomise, I still plan to start posting regularly on my customization blog. It's just a matter of finding the time; I'm fortunate to have been kept busy working on Enigma, Rainmeter 1.0, and a few other projects. But there are a couple desktops in the Lifehacker pool that I'm interested in featuring in the near future, so I hope you'll keep an eye on it. :)

“Catedral de las nuevas tecnologías” Nave Boetticher

C. Cifuentes, s/n. Villaverde Cruce Madrid

Nave Boetticher: Ingeniero: Manuel Cámara Muñoz: 1949 - 1950

Reforma y ampliación: Concurso: 2006. Arquitectos: José María Churtichaga, Joaquín Lizasoain, Rolf Brülisauer y Mauro Doncel. Colaboradora Ophelia Mantz.

Obras: Lizasoain-Churtichaga arquitectos 2010 - 2012.

La nave Boetticher es una de las cinco que formaban el complejo industrial, dedicado fabricación de ascensores y escaleras mecánicas, turbinas para la producción de energía eléctrica, equipamiento de puertos (grúas…), compuertas para pantanos y centrales hidroeléctricas, etc., que Gustavo Boetticher y José Luis Gómez Navarro levantan en Villaverde en la década de1940, y cuyos primeros edificios se construyen según proyecto firmado en 1940 el arquitecto Ricardo Gómez Abad con la colaboración del ingeniero Eduardo Torroja. Por ello, pese a no encontrarse el proyecto de esta zona concreta de la fábrica, y dada su espectacular estructura de hormigón armado con dimensiones de 140 x 42 m y más de 20 de altura, se ha considerado autor de la gran nave de producción del conjunto al ingeniero Eduardo Torroja junto al arquitecto Ricardo Gómez Abad, autores del resto del complejo fabril. De hecho era conocida como Nave Torroja, también como La Catedral por sus dimensiones e interior impactante. Hoy según un estudio encargado por el Instituto Torroja (del CSIC), que consideraba que el diseño estructural de la nave conocida como “la Catedral” no tenía las características propias de la obra del famoso ingeniero, puede afirmarse que fue obra del ingeniero Manuel Cámara Muñoz.

Construida entre 1949 y 1950, su gran estructura de hormigón armado resultó muy novedosa en plena posguerra. Constaba de tres naves, de tipología basilical, una gran nave central, definida como un espacio diáfano cubierto con una bóveda de cañón rebajada, dividida en 16 tramos integrados en un sistema constructivo que se apoya en las dos laterales (de menor tamaño y altura), concebidas a modo de contrafuertes y sustentadas, a su vez, por un entramado de dobles pórticos de hormigón. Los muros de cerramiento y los testeros eran de fábrica de ladrillo.

En 1992 la empresa Boetticher y Navarro quiebra y comienza una larga historia de abandono y progresivo deterioro de sus instalaciones, pese a haberse protegido, por el planeamiento municipal, la nave principal como edificio singular siendo obligada su conservación. Grafiteada, usada como refugio por mendigos y convertida en campo de voleibol cubierto por los inmigrantes, hasta que en 2003 la antigua fábrica y sus terrenos pasan a pertenecer al Ayuntamiento mediante un convenio urbanístico. La parcela de más de 68.000 m2 recalifica su uso industrial pasando a ser el de equipamiento singular, y se proyecta la rehabilitación de la nave para Centro de Expresión de Nuevas Tecnologías. En 2006 el Ayuntamiento junto con el Colegio de Arquitectos convocaron un concurso de ideas para la recuperación de la nave, concurso que es ganado por el proyecto “Banda Ancha” presentado por el equipo formado por José María Churtichaga, Joaquín Lizasoaín, Rolf Brülisauer y Mauro Doncel, con la colaboración de Ophelia Mantz. Aunque estaba prevista su inauguración en 2008 no se puso la primera piedra del nuevo conjunto hasta 2009 y se concluye en 2012. La recuperación incluye una serie de construcciones anejas entre las que destaca una icónica torre. En 2015, con las obras concluidas, aún permanece sin uso.

¿Cómo se transforma una nave de industria pesada, tan siglo XX, en un templo de tecnofilia? "Nuestra apuesta fue no construir nada dentro", dicen Lizasoain y Churtichaga, los arquitectos responsables de la remodelación. "Propusimos una plaza flexible, un gran vacío: no queríamos hacer nada para poder hacerlo todo". El espacio es enorme -140 metros de largo, 40 de ancho y 20 de alto-, "de esos que ya no quedan en Madrid". El reto: que el monstruo no quede desangelado. "El quid era conservar su crudeza pero crear un lugar agradable". "Respetamos sus arrugas y sus cicatrices, pero los muebles le darán alegría y los chispazos de color la cargan de energía". Se pueden ver en la colorista celosía vertical que rodea el inmueble -y que los arquitectos llaman "los pelos"- y en los espectaculares lucernarios. Delante de la nave han construido una torre de oficinas diáfanas que sirve "de faro", ese que se supone llevará al degradado barrio de Villaverde a buen puerto tecnológico.

La propuesta ganadora respeta la nave como elemento central, añadiendo además otros espacios, conserva y restaura la estructura original de la nave y su valor arquitectónico, realzando la amplitud de sus dimensiones y la fuerza de su presencia en el paisaje urbano, planteando una obra estéticamente impactante, acorde a la importante función que tendrá en toda la ciudad.

El nuevo complejo está compuesto por varias zonas diferenciadas, destinadas a distintas facetas de la promoción de la tecnología y de la innovación, tanto para los ciudadanos como para empresas y profesionales. En torno a la vieja nave, se construye una amplia zona congresual, que consta de un salón de actos, con capacidad para 1.000 personas y equipado con la más moderna tecnología, así como de varias salas multifunciones. En esta zona se posibilitará el encuentro de profesionales en conferencias y congresos de carácter eminentemente tecnológico. La antigua nave Boetticher se dedicará a actividades de divulgación y exhibición de las nuevas tecnologías, informática, telecomunicaciones, ingeniería, nano y biotecnología, nuevos materiales, y sus aplicaciones a la vida diaria de las ciudades, las empresas y las personas. También se dará espacio a exposiciones temporales e itinerantes de la misma temática y se creará una “Innovateca”, que se constituirá como un auténtico “almacén digital” de información y conocimiento sobre multitud de aspectos relacionados con la innovación y las nuevas tecnologías al alcance de todos los ciudadanos y empresas de España.

Un edificio de seis alturas, situado en plaza norte del complejo, se destinará a “Factoría de Innovación”, un “centro de alto rendimiento” en innovación destinado a fomentar la cultura innovadora y la creatividad en las empresas. Junto a la factoría estará el “Escaparate de la Innovación” que se situará en un lateral de la calle interior del complejo tecnológico. Estas dos zonas contribuirán a que el centro se convierta en un polo de innovación con importantes efectos de desarrollo económico en el distrito.

Se ha utilizado acero para los refuerzos de la nave, se han rehabilitado más de 27.000 m2 de estructura y además se han empleado micropilotes para su cosido. En cuanto a instalaciones de telecomunicaciones se han tendido 8.184 m. de fibra óptica, más de 35 km. de líneas y circuitos eléctricos, 146.200 m. de cableado de altas prestaciones y 150 puntos de acceso wifi. También, se han utilizado energías renovables, instalando 61 paneles fotovoltaicos con una superficie de captación de 99,3 m2 y un sistema geotérmico de apoyo, formado por 11 pozos de más de 100 m. de profundidad cada uno.

Todo el conjunto se ha rodeado de una celosía vertical de colores, los de la fibra óptica, símbolo de las nuevas tecnologías, azul, verde, gris, naranja… gama que sirve igualmente para la decoración interior y en las medianeras interiores se han conservado alguno de los graffitis existentes.

youtu.be/mqD7pkVyoOw Highlight Reel

Starring Ursula Andress, Peter Cushing, Bernard Cribbins, John Richardson, Rosenda Monteros, and Christopher Lee. Directed by Robert Day.

synopsis

Hammer Films co-produced this lavishly mounted adventure, the fourth adaptation of the novel by H. Rider Haggard. In Jerusalem, Leo Vincey (John Richardson) meets with a slave girl, Ustane (Rosenda Monteros), who has been charged with bringing him to an immortal queen, Ayesha (Ursula Andress). Ayesha, who desires Leo because of his resemblance to her long-dead lover, offers riches if he will travel to her lost city in the mountains, where a magical flame will also give him eternal life. Accompanied by his adventurous friend Major Horace Holly (Peter Cushing), Leo sets out for the fabled city across the desert, but along the way Ustane causes trouble when she decides she wants Leo for her own. She (1965) was followed by a sequel, The Vengeance of She (1968), although the follow-up did not star Andress.

Hammer Films, best known as the House of Horror, enjoyed a long history reaching as far back as the 1930s when it began as a production unit of the distribution company Exclusive Films. Exclusive had been started by William Hinds and Enrique Carreras, and Hammer remained a family-run firm throughout its heyday as a producer of small-budget but stylish horror movies. James Carreras, son of Enrique, presided over Hammer's famous repertory group of horror directors, writers, actors, editors, production designers, and composers, bringing his son Michael into the fold as a producer in the 1960s alongside William Hinds's son, Tony.

Though a small company with a modest studio at Bray, Hammer proved to be successful enough by the 1960s to attract the interests of Hollywood, and studios such as 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros., and MGM made deals with the House of Horror to coproduce films and distribute them in the U.S. Taking advantage of these deals, Hammer sought to maximize profits and diversify their output by increasing budgets and branching out into other genres. She, released in 1965, proved a successful foray into a new direction for Hammer, though Michael Carreras soon grew leery of the increased budgets that accompanied his studio's change in course.

She, H. Rider Haggard's story of a lost world in the jungles of Africa, was destined for cinema almost from the beginning. Haggard published his novel in 1887, and by 1908, a one-reeler of the story had been directed by Edwin S. Porter for Thomas Edison's company. In 1917, a longer interpretation was released by Fox Film starring forgotten actress Valeska Suratt, promoted in publicity materials as the Vampire Woman. Eight years later, an English version surfaced with Betty Blythe as the title character. Prior to Hammer's production, the most well-known interpretation of She was produced by Merian C. Cooper for RKO in 1935. Cooper changed the setting to the frozen north and cast Helen Gahagan as She in her only film role. The material was ripe for an update when Hammer took on the project in 1963.

Originally, Universal partnered with Hammer to produce She, and the project was assigned to Tony Hinds. He hired John Temple Smith to write the first draft of the script, which mirrored the original novel, but the content proved too dark and violent for Universal. Hinds had the script rewritten by Berkeley Mather, but Universal still did not warm up to the material. The project passed to Michael Carreras, who asked David T. Chantler to write another version and steer it toward an adventure tale. MGM stepped in to co-finance and coproduce, tripling the budget of the average Hammer film and making She its most expensive production to date. But MGM knew how to exploit the film, which starred Ursula Andress--famous for her turn as the bikini-clad Bond Girl walking out of the ocean in Dr. No. The posters for She featured Andress's impressive physique, and publicity took advantage of her jet-set lifestyle. She became a commercial hit on two continents.

The film opens in Palestine just after World War I. Three adventure-loving war buddies, Leo Vincey, Holly, and Holly's valet, Job, are enjoying themselves in a bar when a sultry local named Ustane approaches them. Hammer stalwart Peter Cushing plays Holly with his typical charisma and charm, while Bernard Cribbins complements him as his right-hand man Job--a fitting name for a character who is defined by his devotion to his employer. John Richardson costars as leading man Leo Vincey, though he lacks the magnetism of Cushing. Unknown to the men, Ustane secretly serves She, called Ayesha, and the young maiden recognizes Vincey as the reincarnation of her queen's long-dead lover, Kallikrates. Ayesha had murdered Kallikrates 2,000 years earlier for being unfaithful to her, but she pines for him regardless.

Based on Ustane's story, the trio is lured by the idea of a quest for a lost civilization and set out on a journey across the desert. They soon discover they are lost, though they are not without the creature comforts of the upper-crust adventurer. Job the valet, who never forgets his place, serves Holly and Leo their whiskey despite the dire circumstances. The trio reunites with Ustane in her desert village, where her father rules a lost tribe who guard the entrance to Kuma, Ayesha's kingdom. The three adventurers enter Kuma, which had been the scheming queen's long-term plan all along. Ustane has fallen in love with Leo, but Leo has become entranced by Ayesha, known variously as She Who Waits and She Who Must Be Obeyed. Ayesha wants Leo to step into her eternal flame so the two can be united for all eternity, but her priest, Billali, played by Hammer legend Christopher Lee, is jealous of the newcomer. A beautiful but selfish despot, Ayesha does not care about her subjects, including Ustane. She foolishly executes several of her subjects, causing an uprising and complicating the situation for the adventurers.

She was the first film from Hammer to be built around a female star. Tall and statuesque, Ursula Andress was a perfect choice to play Ayesha, though in retrospect she claims to have disliked the role. Andress has been criticized by reviewers for her icy demeanor and aloof detachment, but these characteristics proved beneficial for playing the steely-eyed Ayesha. Costumed in a selection of warm-colored, Grecian-styled gowns and gold jewelry, she glows onscreen, partly due to the flattering, high-key lighting of cinematographer Harry Waxman. Born in Switzerland to German parents, the exotic-looking beauty spoke with an accent, which Hammer's producers found too distracting. Andress's entire role was then re-voiced and dubbed over by an actress named Monica Van Der Syl, who mimicked a slight Swiss accent so audiences did not suspect the truth. John Richardson's lines were also dubbed in post-production by the actor himself, perhaps to give his line readings an added emphasis, since he tended to be overshadowed by Cushing and Lee.

The large budget for She is apparent on screen in the effective location shooting. Instead of the original jungle setting of the novel, writer David T. Chantler opted for a Middle Eastern background. The production shot for two weeks in Israel's Negev desert and then returned to England to shoot the interiors. Hammer's modest Bray Studio proved too small for the scale of the lavish Kuma sets, so the production set up at Elstree Studios. The authentic desert scenes gave She an epic quality not associated with Hammer's stylish but intimate horror films.

She did propel Hammer in a new direction, launching its so-called Hammer Glamour films of the 1960s, which starred or spotlighted female characters. A sequel, The Vengeance of She, was released in 1968, starring Olinka Berova in the starring role. It was yet another Hammer adventure tale with a sexy female lead that quickly outshone Andress and She at the box office. Released in 1966, One Million Years B.C. starred Raquel Welch in a role that propelled her to stardom and created one of the most memorable movie posters of the 1960s. Hammer would continue to place emphasis on women characters into the 1970s, but, just as Michael Carreras predicted, the big budgets that allowed for the location work in She and One Million Years B.C. quickly evaporated. Due to changes in tax laws and industry financing, American studios pulled out of British coproduction deals in the late 1960s, leaving Hammer with higher budgets and higher financial expectations from unions.

India Tiger safari trip.

Our second park, Pench.

VIDEO OF MY TRIP

An impeccable place to walk down the memory lanes of your childhood days of the famous story ‘The Jungle Book’.

In the heart of India, Madhya Pradesh, Pench National Park is located in the districts of Seoni and Chhindwara. Named after the pristine River Pence which flows through the park, Pench National Park is one of the most popular wildlife reserves in India. The park also has its mention in the famous story of 1894, ‘The Jungle Book’, penned down by the renowned English Author Rudyard Kipling. The story was worldwide applauded, and hence, the national park became one of the popular national parks in the world in the 1970s and also a prominent tourist attraction in India. Since then, every year oodles of wildlife buffs flock to this place just to spot the famous characters of the book, Akela (The Indian Wolf), Raksha (the female Wolf), Baloo (Sloth Bear), and the vicious Shere Khan (Royal Bengal Tiger).

Sprawls over a massive area of 758 sq km, including the core area, Pench National Park has a rich wildlife which proffers visitors an opportunity to indulge into one of the finest wildlife experiences in India. Since its inception in 1965 as a wildlife sanctuary, the park has serving as the cosy nest of numerous wild creatures including the Royal Bengal tiger, jackal, peafowl, wild dog, wild boar, sloth bear, Indian leopard, fox, striped hyena, monkey, gaur, barking deer, four-horned antelope, Indian wolf, and more such enthralling species. However, later in the year 1975 and 1992, the sanctuary got the recognition of national park and tiger reserve, respectively.

www.penchnationalpark.com/

The Bengal tiger is a Panthera tigris tigris population native to the Indian subcontinent. It is threatened by poaching, loss, and fragmentation of habitat, and was estimated at comprising fewer than 2,500 individuals by 2011. None of the Tiger Conservation Landscapes within its range is considered large enough to support an effective population of more than 250 adult individuals. India's tiger population was estimated at 1,706–1,909 individuals in 2010. By 2018, the population had increased to an estimated 2,603–3,346 individuals. Around 440 tigers are estimated in Bangladesh, 163–253 tigers in Nepal and 103 tigers in Bhutan.

i had a photo shoot yesterday for the artwork that is going to be on display on the walls of a new restaurant/bar opening here in Tallahassee. It's all pin-up girl themed and this is a behind the scenes shot of what we did yesterday.

This was toward the end of the shoot when we didn't have 4 hair/make up people, other models, another photog, and just random people coming in and out.

It was super hectic, but the images that I got are hands down some of my best. Super excited to post some of them!

Guimerà, Lleida (Spain).

View Large On White

ENGLISH

Guimerà is a municipality of the region of the Urgell, in Lleida.

It is located in the valley of the Corb river. The main body of houses, formerly walled, rests on the North slope of the valley. The streets and the houses extend above mountain from the river-bed.

Still part of the walls is conserved, with their 9 gates, the watchtower of the castle of Guimerà and centennial houses, as well as the medieval store of snow.

Also Guimerà is known as “the nine Glasses”, since the view of the town from the river is an accumulation of houses on others.

The main activity of the town is the dry land agriculture.

In the middle of August a medieval fair is celebrated, with stands of craftsmen and old offices, and some performances.

The most remarkable buildings of the municipality are the rest of the castle and the church of Santa Maria.

CASTELLANO

Guimerà es un municipio de la comarca del Urgell, en Lleida.

Se sitúa en el valle del río Corb. El núcleo principal de casas, antiguamente amurallado, reposa sobre la vertiente norte del valle. Las calles y las casas se extienden montaña arriba desde el lecho del río.

Aún se conservan parte de las murallas, con sus 9 puertas, la atalaya del castillo de Guimerà y casas centenarias, así como la nevera medieval.

También se conoce Guimerà como 'El nueve de Copas', ya que la vista del pueblo desde el río es un amontonamiento de casas unas sobre otras.

La actividad principal del pueblo es la agricultura de secano.

A mediados de agosto se celebra una feria medieval, con puestos de artesanos y de oficios antiguos, y algunas actuaciones.

Los edificios más notables del municipio son los restos del castillo y la iglesia de Santa María.

I like it, like it (3x)

I I like it, like it

I like it, like it (3x)

Na na na, come on

I like it, like it

Na na na, come on

I I like it, like it

Na na na na na na, come on

I like it, like it

Na na na, come on, come on, come on

Na na na na na na

Feels so good being bad

There’s no way I’m turning back

Now the pain is my pleasure

Cause nothing could measure

Love is great, love is fine

Out the box, out of line

The affliction of the feeling

Leaves me wanting more

[Chorus x2]

Cause I may be bad

But I’m perfectly good at it

Sex in the air

I don’t care

I love the smell of it

Sticks and stones

May break my bones

But chains and whips

Excite me

Na na na, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it

[Britney Spears]

Just one night full of sin

Feel the pain on your skin

Tough, I don’t scream mercy

It’s your time to hurt me

Yeah

If I’m bad tie me down

Shut me up, gag and bound me

Cos the pain is my pleasure

Nothing comes better

Yeah

[Chorus:]

Cause I may be bad

But I’m perfectly good at it

Sex in the air

I don’t care

I love the smell of it

Sticks and stones

May break my bones

But chains and whips

Excite me

Na na na, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it

S…S…S

And

M…M…M

S…S…S

And

M…M…M

Oh

I love the feeling you bring to me

Oh, you turn me on

It’s exactly what I’ve been yearning for

Give it to me strong

And meet me in my boudoir

With my body suit on, on, on

I like it, like it

[Chorus x2]

Cause I may be bad

But I’m perfectly good at it

Sex in the air

I don’t care

I love the smell of it

Sticks and stones

May break my bones

But chains and whips

Excite me

Na na na, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on

I like it, like it

Like it

S…S…S

And

M…M…M

S…S…S

And

M…M…M

S…S…S

And

"Les jurys européens et français du concours "Streetphotography" organisé par HP se sont réunis ce 14 juin pour désigner les lauréats qui seront exposés à Arles.

Stuart Franklin, qui préside le jury européen, n'a pas encore rendu son verdict.

Le jury du concours national réservé aux résidents français et doté par HP France a quant à lui élu les quatre lauréats qui seront chacun récompensé d'une imprimante professionnelle HP et verront également leurs photos exposées à Arles durant les rencontres de la photographie qui débuteront le 3 juillet prochain.

Le jury de ce concours Streetphotography France était composé de François Hebel, Directeur des rencontres d'Arles, de Bernard Perrine, Conseiller de la Rédaction du magazine Le Photographe, de Carole Guiomar et Patrice Bernou, de la société HP, et de Guillaume Cuvillier, Rédacteur en Chef du magazine Le Photographe. 205 photographes étaient inscrits à ce concours qui ont présenté un total de 732 photos. Une participation massive et de qualité. François Hebel remarquait en examinant les photos que la production ainsi réunie montrait « des pratiques et des profils différents qui réunissent amateurs et professionnels autour d'un thème que l'on peut aussi bien traiter en bas de chez soi qu'à l'autre bout du monde. » Il se félicitait également de constater que « la photographie évolue bien, et que si l'on retrouve toujours certaines influences, les stéréotypes s'estompent pour laisser place à une interprétation plus libre et personnelle favorable à la diversité. »

Ce jury a désigné Farid Bernat-Ortells comme grand gagnant, avec une image représentant le tumulte d'une bouche de métro pris en pose longue. Il remporte une imprimante HP Designjet Z3100.

Les trois autres gagnants sont Stéphane Klein, Eric Vazzoler et Hughes Leglise-Bataille."

Guillaume CUVILLIER, magazine Le Photographe du 15/06/2007

_______________________________________________________________

By the way, as a result, I'll be in Arles at least a couple of days between the 4 and the 8th. If anyone's planning to be there, would be cool to meet up :-)
