Un décollage de type falaise, très court où la technique de deco préconisée par les locaux est de reculer de 2 pas et de courir com’ dans les années 90… le face voile peut être une bonne alternative à condition de maîtriser cette technique par vent nul. Site de thermique un pilote local m’a dit faire régulièrement 30 km et il est possible de enjoindre la mer à plus de 60km. Ce ne sera pas le cas ce jour là étant donné qu’un typhon se pointe dans le sud du pays et ses cirrus annonciateurs empêchent la convection de s’instaler… shit : )
Très bon accueil à l’ecole j’ai loué une voile en montrant qlq photos et ma licence pour 60€ la journée et 6 euros la rotation
A very short, cliff-type take-off where the deco technique recommended by the locals is to take 2 steps back and run like in the 90's... face gliding can be a good alternative provided you master this technique in zero wind conditions. On the thermalling site, a local pilot told me that he regularly does 30 km and it's possible to reach the sea at more than 60 km. This won't be the case that day, as a typhoon is approaching in the south of the country and its cirrus clouds are preventing convection from taking hold... shit : )
Very good welcome at the school, I rented a glider showing a few photos and my licence for 60€ a day and 6 euros a rotation.

Un despegue muy corto tipo acantilado donde la técnica de deco recomendada por los lugareños es dar 2 pasos atrás y correr como en los 90... el face gliding puede ser una buena alternativa siempre que domines esta técnica en condiciones de viento cero. En el sitio de thermalling, un piloto local me dijo que regularmente hace 30 km y es posible llegar al mar a más de 60 km. No será el caso ese día, ya que un tifón se aproxima por el sur del país y sus cirros impiden que se instale la convección... mierda : )
Muy buena acogida en la escuela, alquilé un parapente enseñando unas fotos y mi licencia por 60 euros el día y 6 euros la rotación.

In recent years, it has become common for some locals to mock Times Square for becoming "Disney-fied"—but could it really be compared to a Disney entertainment center without a freakin' ferris wheel? Even London has the Millennium Wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames for crissakes! But next week the transformation into a Disney property will be complete, when a pop-up ferris wheel is installed in the heart of Times Square.
Una noria emergente llega a Times Square
Una representación de la noria en Times Square
En los últimos años, se ha vuelto común que algunos lugareños se burlen de Times Square por convertirse en "fanáticos de Disney", pero ¿podría realmente compararse con un centro de entretenimiento de Disney sin una maldita noria? ¡Incluso Londres tiene la Rueda del Milenio en la orilla sur del río Támesis, por el amor de Dios! Pero la próxima semana se completará la transformación en una propiedad de Disney, cuando se instale una noria emergente en el corazón de Times Square.
Te conseguí la luz del sol a medianoche
y el número después del infinito,
e instalé la Osa Mayor en tu diadema
y tú seguías ahí como si nada ...♪

São Jorge Castle is a historic castle in the Portuguese capital of Lisbon, located in the freguesia of Santa Maria Maior. Human occupation of the castle hill dates to at least the 8th century BC while the first fortifications built date from the 1st century BC. The hill on which São Jorge Castle stands has played an important part in the history of Lisbon, having served as the location of fortifications occupied successively by Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, and Moors, before its conquest by the Portuguese in the 1147 Siege of Lisbon. Since the 12th century, the castle has variously served as a royal palace, a military barracks, home of the Torre do Tombo National Archive, and now as a national monument and museum.
Although the first fortifications on this hilltop date from the 1st century BC, archaeological excavations have identified a human presence in the Tagus valley as far back as the 8th century BC. The first fortification was, presumably, erected in 48 BC, when Lisbon was classified as a Roman municipality.
The hill was first used by indigenous Celtic tribes, then by Phoenicians, followed by Greeks and later the Carthaginians as a defensive outpost that was later expropriated successively by the Romans, the Suebi, the Visigoths, and the Moors. During the 10th century, the fortifications were built by Berber forces; these included the walls or Cerca Moura ("Moorish Encirclement").
In the context of the Christian Reconquista, the castle and the city of Lisbon were freed from Moorish rule in 1147 by Afonso Henriques and northern European knights in the Siege of Lisbon during the Second Crusade; this victory was the only notable success of that failed crusade. According to an oft-repeated legend, the knight Martim Moniz, noticing that one of the doors to the castle was open, prevented the Moors from closing it by throwing his own body into the breach, thus allowing Christian soldiers to enter at the cost of his own life. With the taking of the castle Christian forces were able to maintain the defense of Lisbon until the end of the 12th century.
When Lisbon became the capital of the Kingdom of Portugal in 1255, the castle served as the alcáçova, a fortified residence for Afonso III, in his role as governor. It was extensively renovated around 1300 by King Denis I, transforming the Moorish alcáçova into the Royal Palace of the Alcáçova. Between 1373 and 1375, King Ferdinand I ordered the building of the Cerca Nova or Cerca Fernandina, the walled compound that enclosed all but the north flank of the castle. The master builders João Fernandes and Vasco Brás were responsible for its construction. This wall, which partially replaced the old Moorish walls, was designed to encircle previously unprotected parts of the city. Completed in two years, it had 77 towers, 34 or 38 gates, and a perimeter of 5,400 metres.
The castle and the city resisted the forces of Castile several times during the 14th century (notably in 1373 and in 1383–1384). It was during this period (the late 14th century) that the castle was dedicated to Saint George by King John I, who had married the English princess Philippa of Lancaster. Saint George, the warrior-saint, was normally represented slaying a dragon, and was very popular in both countries.
From 1378 onwards many of the kingdom's records were housed in the Torre do Tombo (literally, "Tower of the Archive"), also known as the Torre Albarrã, until the earthquake of 1755 (a tower that is known today as Tower of Ulysses). The Portuguese Royal Archive, where the eminent Portuguese chroniclers Fernão Lopes, Gomes Eanes de Zurara and Damião de Góis once worked, is still referred to as the Torre do Tombo, due to its original location in one of the towers of the Lisbon Castle. On 9 December 1448, Gil Pires was named the castle master builder to replace Afonso Esteves, being paid 400 réis for his work. Between 1448 and 1451, the master builder was paid several stipends for his work on the palace. Similarly, the mason João de Alverca was paid a substantial sum for stonework. These public works continued from 1449 until 1452, with additional payments being made for labor and materials to convert the building from a fortified castle to a royal residence.
In the beginning of the 15th century, a royal menagerie was established in the Royal Palace of Lisbon, located nearby the Castle of Saint George. Following the conquest of Ceuta in 1415, King John I of Portugal brought back to Lisbon two Barbary lions, and they were instaled in a large room inside his Palace in the Citadel of Lisbon. This area of the Palace came to be known as Casa dos Leões (the "Lions' House"); today the area is occupied by a famed restaurant with the same name. Later that century, German humanist Hieronymus Münzer spent five days in Lisbon in 1494, and learned about the lions, claiming to be the most beautiful wild beasts he had ever seen.
As the royal palace, the castle was the setting for the reception by King Manuel I of the navigator Vasco da Gama when he returned from discovering the maritime route to India in 1498. The castle also served as a theater in 1502 when pioneering playwright Gil Vicente staged his Monólogo do Vaqueiro to honor the birth of Manuel I's son and heir, the future João III.
Around the early 16th century, following the construction of the Ribeira Palace beside the Tagus river, the Palace of Alcáçova began to lose its importance. An earthquake occurring in 1531 further damaged the old castle, contributing further to its decay and neglect. In 1569, King Sebastian ordered the rebuilding of the royal apartments in the castle, intending to use it as his official residence. As part of the rebuilding, in 1577 Filippo Terzi demolished one of the towers near the principal facade of the Church of Loreto. However, many of the works were never completed after the young king's apparent death during the Battle of Alcácer Quibir. The following Portuguese dynastic crisis opened the way for sixty years of Spanish rule and the castle was converted into military barracks and a prison. On 30 December 1642, Teodósio de Frias the Younger was appointed master builder to continue the works begun by his father, Luís de Frias, and his grandfather, Teodósio de Frias. This was part of a greater plan by the Spanish forces to recommission the fortification.
However, after Portugal regained its independence following the Portuguese Restoration War, the works were taken over by the Portuguese government. On 6 November 1648, Nicolau de Langres was called upon to take over the design, execution and construction of a new fortification that would surround the Castle of São Jorge and the city walls of Lisbon. In 1650 the military architect Mateus do Couto was named master builder of the project and reconstruction took on a new formality: although the military engineer João Gillot built new walls in 1652, construction again followed Couto's plans between 1657 and 1733. In 1673, the Soldiers' Hospital, dedicated to São João de Deus (St John of God), was installed on the grounds beside the Rua do Recolhimento. At the end of the 17th century the Recolhimento do Castelo ("Castle Shelter") was constructed along the southeast angle of the courtyard, and in 1733, new projects were initiated by master Custódio Vieira.
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake severely damaged the castle and contributed to its continuing decay: apart from the walls of the old castle, the soldier's hospital and the Recolhimento were left in ruins. The necessity of maintaining a supporting military force within the capital city required expansion of the site's role of garrison and presidio. From 1780 to 1807, the charitable institution Casa Pia, dedicated to the education of poor children, was established in the citadel, while soldiers continued to be garrisoned on site. Inspired by the events of the earthquake and the following tsunami, the first geodetic observatory in Portugal was constructed in 1788 at the top of one of the towers of the castle, later referred to as the Torre do Observatório (Observatory Tower).
By the 1930s, the Castle had all but disappeared as a distinguishable landmark from Lisbon's skyline, being almost entirely obscured behind and under later annexes and additions. As part of the commemorative celebrations marking the foundation of nationhood and restoration of independence (Portuguese: Fundação da Nacionalidade e da Restauração da Independência), the government of António de Oliveira Salazar initiated extensive renovations at the site (as it did with similar castles, such as the ones in Sintra and Silves). Most of the incongruous structures added to the castle compound in previous centuries were demolished, under the supervision of the DGEMN, and there was a partial restoration of the Recolhimento. In addition, on 25 October 1947, a monument dedicated to Afonso Henriques, presented by the city of Porto, of a replica created by Soares dos Reis (in 1887) was installed on the grounds.
On 31 May 1942 the castle's operations began to be handled by the city government of Lisbon, which was reaffirmed on 8 June 1979.
In 1998, the semi-rectangular spaces, columns and cistern were adapted into the museum Olissipónia.
On 22 August 2006, Direcção Regional de Cultura Lisboa (DRCLisboa) defined a special protection zone, that included the Castle of São Jorge and the rest of the walls of Lisbon, the Baixa Pombalina and various properties that were already classified as cultural heritage. The Conselho Nacional de Cultura (National Council of Culture) proposed shelving this definition on 10 October 2011, which was supported by IGESPAR.

This wall, which partially replaced the old Moorish walls, was designed to encircle previously unprotected parts of the city.

We are instaling hard wood floors on the first floor of the house and all the rooms must be emptied. Including my dollroom and my studio. This is no fun.
I can't wait to put everything back and reorganise it all. (it's really needed)
Sadly I don't know if I will keep the gigantic dollhouse I was working on. Here you only see the half of it.
It's huge and I desperately need more display shelves. so I'll have to take a hard decision.
I don't know if / how / when I'll be able to post dolly pictures in the following weeks.
I think I will keep a play-box accessible so I can play dolls a little bit. I need that for my mental sanity lol

The bogie suspension system of the RPB-01 is consisted of primary wheelset Chevron type suspension by the rubber spring; the support of the carbody and guidance traction by the bogie is realised by the flexicoil type secondary suspension throught the coil springs which can be deflected into vertical and horizontal directions according to flexicoil principle. Also hydraulic dampers are instaled.

This must have started out as a used UK panel van which were popular then, by time people were instaling glass on these and converting them to family cars.

We pull flatbed throughout the southeast with this old 1985 model 359. I updated everything that wouldnt ruin the old school look. we shoehorned in an n14 redtop, 18spd, electric wipers, unibilt opening, low air leaf, ect. stretched the frame to 285 and instaled one of the last 100" that double eagle made. my kids like riding with me so the bathroom was a nesessity.
conseguí la luz del sol a medianoche,
y el número después del infinito,
instalé la osa mayor en tu retina,
y alquilé el cuarto menguante de la luna...
Two People Leaving The Underground Cinema.
Dissembling extremest consciences προσφορές stormed,
insinuating emendationibus misshapen rage,
arbitrements breaks thy darkness streitkräfte,
regimenty hath thee tyranny aid,
interchanging gedurig seasons of ceremonious vino,
courageous povzbudenie resort to adverse swallows morrow,
overmasterest betydelse hadst thou perchance speed,
tongues abhorred frenesia death,
whilst feathers demander des lesser sorrows these,
'twixt hand and foot thy warantizat hanged,
fleshly étranger accounts oft a thousand deeds,
royalty confounds добродетелях cast twill dust,
ødelæggelse significance vengeance thy ultimate course,
tragedies exist affirmationes dispatched,
traîtres pleading beerdigung tears hast reproached,
brethren conquered imperatore imperious tomb,
eats thy praedominante twisted ripening world,
struggling divertissement gaudy creatures pass,
sheathed απολαύσεις peep hiss thou nay alone,
doth thy užmuštas scorn sharp quake expels,
злодеями spake intemperate blushes held,
comprehend humeurs instale the ausdrücke haste,
אצילי ones cast thy eyes on thy eindringenden screen,
cast thy billets aside προσποιούμαι thee hast not even seen.
Underground cinema esaspera thy courts that угнетать.

A Dash 9 #804 foi uma de cinco unidades primeiras unidades do modelo compradas pela CVRD - EFC em 1997. Na época, elas foram as primeiras locomotivas com cabine "Wide" rodando aqui em nossa ferrovia, originalmente elas vieram com freios 26L mas com o passar dos anos foram modernizadas com freios elerônicos CCBII e sistema locotrol.
The Dash 9 #804 is one of five "Conrail Style" units bought for CVRD - EFC in 1997. At the time, these five units were the first wide cabs locomotives running here, originally they came with 26L brakes but nowadays these engines already have CCBII brakes and locotrol system instaled.
Clock Tower and Church of Our Lady before Týn, Prague, Czech Republic
Some background information:
The Gothic Church of Our Lady before Týn was built in 1365 on the site of an earlier Romanesque church. Its magnificent multiple steeples are 80m high and dominate the square. Between the early 15th century and the year of 1620 it was the main Hussite church in Prague.
The Clock Tower, which is 69.5 metres high, is the dominant part of Prague’s Old Town Hall and offers a great view of the city. It was established in 1338 after the agreement of King John of Luxemburg to set up a town council. Several old houses had to be knocked down over the centuries as the Old Town Hall expanded. A Gothic chapel and a neo-Gothic north wing were destroyed by German Wehrmacht in spring 1945. Later the chapel has been reconstructed. The most popular part of the tower is the Town Hall Clock at its base. Originally instaled in 1410, the clock was rebuilt in 1490. It consists of three parts: the procession of the twelve apostles, the astronomical clock and the calendar.
Prague itself is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic. It’s also known as the "City of a Hundred Spires" as well as the "Golden City". It’s home to about 1.3 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of over 1.9 million.
Situated on the Vltava River in central Bohemia, Prague has been the political, cultural and economic centre of the Czech state for more than 1.100 years. For many decades during the Gothic and Renaissance eras Prague was the permanent seat of two Holy Roman Emperors and thus was also the capital of the Holy Roman Empire.
Since 1992 the extensive historic centre of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites, making the city one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, which receives more than 4.1 million international visitors annually, as of 2009.

This is a World War I British light anti-aircraft gun, which was used during the first air raid on the City of London.
The 1-pounder belt-fed quick-firing gun was designed as a light field artillery piece by Sir Hiram Maxim in the 1880s. Originally turned down by the British government, it was adopted for use after being used by the Boers against British troops in the South Africa War of 1899-1902.
Early models on wheeled carriages were followed by naval versions on pedestal deck mountings, as seen above. During World War I they were instaled on ships for defence against torpedo boats. When converted for high-angle shooting they were also useful anti-aircraft weapons, becoming the forerunners of the 2-pounder 'pom-poms' widely employed on British warships during World War II.
This particular gun was issued in August 1914 to the anti-aircraft station at Gresham College in Holborn, where it was operated by officers and men of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve and the Royal Naval Air Service. It required a crew of six, had a calibre of 1.46-inches (37mm) and fired 120 rounds per minute to a maximum range of 4,938m.
On the evening of 5 September 1915, it fired several rounds, without success, at the German Zeppelin L13, which was carrying out the first air raid on the City of London. The officer commanding the gun was Sub Lieutenant Charles Ffoulkes, RNVR, who was later the first Curator and Secretary of the Imperial War Museum. The gun itself was moved to Ipswich in the autumn of 1915, where it fired another 150 rounds during a Zeppelin raid over East Anglia on 13 October.
Seen in the basement of the Imperial War Museum prior to the building's major renovation in preparation for the WWI anniversaries. I'm not sure where it is now located.
