Levalet
Figure montante de l’art urbain, Levalet a investi la rue par l’installation de personnages à échelle humaine
au langage corporel expressif .
Cinéma, mime, théâtre d’improvisation nourrissent son travail pour donner naissance à une compagnie de
comédiens qui interagit avec le passant. Cette démarche illusionniste est un jeu de rôles qui semble croqué
sur le vif, de préférence à l’encre sur papier.
Collés ensuite dans la rue, les dessins de Levalet interpellent par leur trait caractéristique, leur décalage,
leur poésie, leur imagination et la pertinence d’un contexte toujours choisi avec soin.
Chaque installation raconte ainsi une histoire habile entre humour et questionnement et transforme
l’espace public en scènes inattendues aux sens multiples.

Last week, Pan Am’s business train made a third consecutive week run. With the rumors flying of the Railroad being up for sale and potential new buyers checking out the Railroad. The train left Mechanicville, NY at sun rise but with all the slowdowns, the train came at pretty good timing. As seen here passing The farm land near the “Cosby Red Barn”.

Vang-Vieng (Laos) - Photo prise à 15 bonnes minutes à pied du centre-ville en 2015.
Cette ville aujourd’hui peuplée de 20.000 habitants, était considérée jusqu’au milieu des années 1990, comme l’un des paradis terrestres. Je n’y suis malheureusement pas venu lors de mon premier voyage dans les années 1990.
De paradis terrestre, Vang-Vieng s’est muée en enfer touristique en moins de deux ans, sous les assauts des investisseurs chinois et vietnamiens, attirés par un décor de rêve autour de la rivière Nam-Song, cernée de majestueuses montagnes calcaires truffées de grottes plus ou moins sacrées.
Le tourisme de masse s’est abattu du jour au lendemain sur cette jolie vallée qui attirait depuis quelques années tous les junkies du monde. Conséquence, ce un lieu est devenu peu fréquentable avec un fort taux de criminalité.
Vang-Vieng a vite été rebaptisée " le cancer du tourisme " dans les années 2000. Mais en 2012, après avoir largement profité de la corruption, le gouvernement laotien à été obligé de mettre un terme à cette débauche, peu compatible avec l’image qu’il voulait donner du pays.
Aujourd’hui, la région est redevenue plus apaisée et sécurisée. C’est toujours un haut lieu du tourisme avec ses quads pétaradants, perturbant la tranquillité des campagnes environnantes. Mais il est possible de pratiquer un tourisme plus respectueux de l’environnement en parcourant la région à pied ou à vélo.
Vang-Vieng, the lost paradise
Vang-Vieng (Laos) - Photo taken a good 15 minutes walk from the city center.
This city, now populated by 20,000 inhabitants, was considered until the mid-1990s as one of the paradises of earth. Unfortunately, I did not stay there on my first trip in the 1990s.
From earthly paradise, Vang-Vieng has turned into hell in less than two years, under the onslaught of Chinese and Vietnamese investors, attracted by a dream setting around the Nam-Song river, surrounded by majestic limestone mountains dotted with caves more or less sacred.
Mass tourism swept over this pretty valley overnight, which for several years had attracted junkies around the world. As a result, this place has become infrequent with a high crime rate.
Vang-Vieng was quickly renamed "the cancer of tourism" in the early 2000s. But in 2012, after having profited greatly from corruption, the Laotian government was forced to put an end to this debauchery, which was hardly compatible with the image he wanted to give of the country.
Today, the region has once again become more peaceful and secure. It is still a hotspot for tourism with its backlashing quads, disturbing the tranquility of the surrounding countryside. But it is possible to practice more environmentally friendly tourism by exploring the region on foot or by bicycle.

Invested in a micro drone a few days ago. Quite fun to operate and I believe some really cool images can be made.
Here's a poor quality image from an impromptu rainy morning out to meet a friend from out of town. Earlier this year I shared this photo: flic.kr/p/2qLiTJi and now finally she is back operating in revenue service. I need to get out on a nice day but I don't hate the saturated rainy look to this scene, though the brush does annoy me.
Anyway Grafton and Upton Railroad train GU-1 led by GP35 3604 and a pair of MP15ACs has just departed southbound from North Grafton yard as comes off the short causeway over the marsh and Big Bummet Brook at about MP 1 as measured from the north end of the line at the junction with the Keolis Worcester Mainline, the former Boston and Albany.
Still dressed in the image of its former owner this locomotive was built in January 1965 for the Pennsylvania Railroad and was acquired by the Housatonic from Conrail around 1992 when the road expanded with the acquisition of the Danbury cluster from CR. The unit was sent here a couple years ago for contract repair work and underwent an extensive rebuild/upgrade including all new wiring and modular electrical systems.
For whatever reason after spending a substantial sum the HRRC ownership decided not to invest any more money and purchased newly rebuilt GP15-1s and GP39-2s instead. In exchange for outstanding payments due, the G&U was offered and accepted this unit in trade and now owns it.

Une crèche napolitaine exceptionnelle investit la cathédrale jusqu’au 2 février 2025 ! Ce chef-d'œuvre du XVIIIe siècle est porté par 150 santons réunis au fil d’une vie par le collectionneur Alberto Ravaglioli, disparu l’an dernier.
La crèche fait six mètres de long pour des personnages hauts d'environ 25 cm. Ils sont fidèles au style du XVIIIe siècle, quand les églises et les riches paroissiens napolitains rivalisaient d'imagination et de créativité pour célébrer la nativité dans des compositions baroques : les meilleurs artisans étaient sollicités pour réaliser les pastori, dont le corps mobile est fait d'étoupe armée de métal, facilement pliable, avec les mains et les têtes sculptées dans la terracotta. Tailleurs, orfèvres, artistes, tous travaillaient d'arrache-pied avant les fêtes pour répondre à la demande, ainsi que les maquettistes et les peintres pour construire des décors impressionnants.

Ogni anno ne vengono investiti centinaia di migliaia mentre attraversano la strada.
Un'ulteriore minaccia proviene dai fitofarmaci chimici che vengono impiegati contro gli insetti nocivi alle colture e alle piante da giardino.
Mangiandoli e rendendosi così utile al giardiniere, il riccio si avvelena gradualmente.
Questo delizioso riccetto l'ho trovato ieri che vagava vicino alla strada ai limiti del campo proprio in pieno giorno. L'ho portato in un posto tranquillo e lì l'ho lasciato in pace, ma non mi sembrava che stesse molto bene.
Oggi l'ho trovato morto nello stesso luogo. Ieri era vicino ad un campo in cui sono sicura che vengono usate molte schifezze chimiche. Povero tesorino....

EXPLORE # 281
We had another wet night and day in London, it just didnt stop! i just managed to take a couple of reflection shots in London at night in Covent Garden ;-)
=======================================================================
Covent Garden (pronounced /ˈkɒvənt/) is a district in London, England, located in the easternmost parts of the City of Westminster and the southwestern corner of the London Borough of Camden. The area is dominated by shopping, street performers, and entertainment facilities, and it contains an entrance to the Royal Opera House, which is also widely-known simply as "Covent Garden", and the bustling Seven Dials area.
The area is bounded by High Holborn to the north, Kingsway to the east, the Strand to the south and Charing Cross Road to the west. Covent Garden Piazza is located in the geographical centre of the area and was the site of a flower, fruit and vegetable market from the 1500s until 1974, when the wholesale market relocated to New Covent Garden Market in Nine Elms. Nearby areas include Soho, St James's, Bloomsbury, and Holborn
In 1913, responding to political feeling against large holdings of real property, and wishing to diversify his investment portfolio into less politically sensitive fields, the Duke of Bedford agreed to sell the Covent Garden Estate to the MP and land speculator Harry Mallaby-Deeley for £2 million. The following year Mallaby-Deeley sold his option to buy to the pill manufacturer Sir Joseph Beecham for £250,000. After delays caused by the First World War and the death of Sir Joseph, the sale was finalised in 1918, the purchasers being Sir Joseph's two sons, Sir Thomas and Henry. The transaction included the market, 231 other properties, and sundry other rights. The property was part of Beecham Estates and Pills Limited from 1924 to 1928 and from 1928 it was owned by a successor company called Covent Garden Properties Company Limited, owned by the Beechams and other private investors. This new company sold some properties at Covent Garden, while becoming active in property investment in other parts of London. In 1962 the bulk of the remaining properties in the Covent Garden area, including the market, were sold to the newly established government-owned Covent Garden Authority for £3,925,000.[3]
By the end of the 1960s, traffic congestion in the surrounding area had reached such a level that the use of the square as a market, which required increasingly large lorries for deliveries and distribution, was becoming unsustainable. The whole area was threatened with complete redevelopment. Following a public outcry, in 1973 the Home Secretary, Robert Carr, gave dozens of buildings around the square listed building status, preventing redevelopment. The following year the market finally moved to a new site (called the New Covent Garden Market) about three miles (5 km) south-west at Nine Elms. The square languished until its central building re-opened as a shopping centre and tourist attraction in 1980. Today the shops largely sell novelty items, though street performers can be seen almost every day of the year, both on the pitches within the market, and on the West and East Piazza's/James Street outside. More serious shoppers gravitate to Long Acre, which has a range of clothes shops and boutiques, and Neal Street, noted for its large number of shoe shops. London's Transport Museum and the side entrance to the Royal Opera House box office and other facilities are also located on the Piazza.
In August 2007, Covent Garden launched the UK's first food Night Market. Fresh produce from over 35 different stalls included Neal's Yard's specialist cheeses, Spore Boys' mushroom sandwiches, Gourmet Candy Company, Ginger Pig sausages and Burnt Sugar fudge. The aim of the Night Market was to bring Covent Garden back to its roots as the "Larder of London". Organisers are hoping to make it a permanent event in 2008 as part of a wider initiative to regenerate interest in the Covent Garden area.
Covent Garden Market and Piazza was bought by Capital and Counties in August 2006 for £421 million.[4] In March 2007 Capco also acquired the shops located under the Royal Opera House.[5] The complete Covent Garden Estate owned by Capital and Counties consists of 550,000 sq ft (51,000 m2). and has a market value of £650 million.[4]
Covent Garden Market reopened as a retail centre in 1980, after the produce market was moved to its current location in Nine Elms. Currently one of the most famous and popular parts of the covered Covent Garden market is Apple Market, a small subsection of the main market. [6] Street entertainment at Covent Garden was first mentioned in Samuel Pepys' diary in 1662.[7] Today Covent Garden is the only part of London licensed for street entertainment with performers having to undertake auditions for the Market's management and representatives of the performers' union and signing up to timetabled slots.
Currently performers operate in a number of venues around the market, including the North Hall, West Piazza, and South Hall Courtyard. The courtyard space is dedicated to classical music only. There are street performances at Covent Garden Market every day of the year, except Christmas Day. Shows run throughout the day and are 30–40 minutes in length.
In March 2008, Capital and Counties proposed to reduce street performances by approximately 50%. In the Courtyard, shows currently run back to back from 10:30 am to 7:00 pm, with short breaks in between each show, allowing for two shows each hour. Under the new proposal, performances would be cut to one 30-minute show each hour. The musicians and performers staged a demonstration "busk" in the Piazza against these cuts on 27 March with the opera singer Lesley Garrett who is supporting their campaign.[8] They have organised a petition which so far has over 5,000 signatures including Ken Livingstone, Brian Paddick, Vasko Vassilev, Brian Eno and Victoria Wood.

Local rock band Triggered Response contracted me back in December to do their first serious photoshoot. They wanted to take some explosive imagery that showed them off as a band so the idea to have this series of water explosions was born. Minus a flooded room, the shoot went off AMAZINGLY ^_^
Over 10 hours of photoshop was invested into the shot to blend the 8 or so images together! If the interest is there, I can prepare a short Tutorial showing how it's done!
In the mean time, I invite you guys to come check out the Making of Video by Eva Jinn Productions: vimeo.com/19996118

Santo Stefano di Sessanio è un comune italiano di 114 abitanti della provincia dell'Aquila in Abruzzo. È tra i comuni meno popolati della provincia e della regione, e faceva parte della Comunità montana Campo Imperatore-Piana di Navelli. Compreso all'interno del Parco nazionale del Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga, ne costituisce una delle porte di accesso nella sua parte meridionale. Le prime notizie di contrade comprese nel territorio comunale di Santo Stefano di Sessanio di proprietà del monastero di San Vincenzo al Volturno le dobbiamo al Chronicon Vulturnense e risalgono all'inizio del IX secolo. La prima notizia certa dell'esistenza dell'insediamento detto Santo Stefano è dell'anno 1239. L'opera capillare degli ordini monastici determina un aumento delle terre coltivabili, il ripopolamento delle campagne anche ad alte quote, nonché la nascita e il consolidamento di borghi fortificati, tanto più sicuri quanto più in posizione elevata.
Dal XII secolo Santo Stefano fu compreso nel distretto feudale della baronia di Carapelle che includeva anche Carapelle Calvisio, Castelvecchio Calvisio, Calascio e Rocca Calascio. Santo Stefano seguì le vicende storiche della baronia fino al 1806, anno di abolizione della feudalità. Il borgo divenne dominio nell'ordine delle famiglie Pagliara, Plessis, Colonna, Celano, Caldora, Accrocciamuro, Piccolomini Todeschini, Del Pezzo, Cattaneo, Medici e Borbone. Nel 1474, sotto gli Aragonesi, l'abolizione della tassa sugli animali e il riordino dei pascoli di Puglia consentono un forte sviluppo della pastorizia e della transumanza al punto che in quell' anno Santo Stefano, Calascio, Rocca Calascio e Carapelle hanno nella dogana di Puglia ben 94.070 pecore. Costanza, figlia unica di Innico Piccolomini, cedette la Baronia di Carapelle a Francesco I de' Medici, granduca di Toscana, nel 1579. Queste terre apparterranno ai Medici fino al 1743. In questo periodo Santo Stefano raggiunge il massimo splendore come base operativa della Signoria di Firenze per il fiorente commercio della lana "carfagna", qui prodotta e poi lavorata in Toscana e venduta in tutta Europa. Nel XIX secolo con l'Unità d'Italia e la privatizzazione delle terre del Tavoliere delle Puglie ha termine l'attività millenaria della transumanza e inizia un processo di decadenza del borgo che vede fortemente ridotta la popolazione a causa del fenomeno dell'emigrazione. Nel XXI secolo l'antico borgo sta avendo una rinascita grazie al turismo. Infatti nel 1994 è arrivato in paese un giovane imprenditore, Daniele Kihlgren, milanese di origini svedesi, che ha acquistato gran parte del borgo per realizzarci un albergo diffuso ed ha attirato, grazie al progetto di recupero conservativo del paesaggio, delle tradizioni e degli immobili, l'interesse della stampa nazionale ed internazionale. Ciò ha richiamato nuovi investitori, facendo sviluppare in modo considerevole tutte le attività economiche della zona. Il 6 aprile 2009 il paese è stato colpito dal terremoto che ha abbattuto la Torre Medicea, simbolo del borgo, e alcune abitazioni, danneggiandone molte altre. Il restauro della torre è stato ultimato a ottobre 2021 a seguito di un intervento durato tre anni e costato circa un milione di euro. Il borgo medioevale ha visto nel tempo molti lavori di restauro che hanno riportato il paese in una condizione pre terremoto.
Santo Stefano di Sessanio is an Italian municipality of 114 inhabitants in the province of L'Aquila in Abruzzo. It is among the least populated municipalities in the province and the region, and was part of the Campo Imperatore-Piana di Navelli mountain community. Included within the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park, it is one of the access gates in its southern part. The first news of districts included in the municipal territory of Santo Stefano di Sessanio owned by the monastery of San Vincenzo al Volturno are due to the Chronicon Vulturnense and date back to the beginning of the 9th century. The first certain news of the existence of the settlement called Santo Stefano is from the year 1239. The widespread work of the monastic orders determined an increase in cultivable land, the repopulation of the countryside even at high altitudes, as well as the birth and consolidation of fortified villages, all the safer the higher they were in a position.
From the 12th century Santo Stefano was included in the feudal district of the barony of Carapelle which also included Carapelle Calvisio, Castelvecchio Calvisio, Calascio and Rocca Calascio. Santo Stefano followed the historical events of the barony until 1806, the year of the abolition of feudalism. The village became a dominion in the order of the Pagliara, Plessis, Colonna, Celano, Caldora, Accrocciamuro, Piccolomini Todeschini, Del Pezzo, Cattaneo, Medici and Borbone families. In 1474, under the Aragonese, the abolition of the tax on animals and the reorganization of the pastures of Puglia allowed a strong development of sheep farming and transhumance to the point that in that year Santo Stefano, Calascio, Rocca Calascio and Carapelle had 94,070 sheep in the customs of Puglia. Costanza, the only daughter of Innico Piccolomini, ceded the Barony of Carapelle to Francesco I de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, in 1579. These lands belonged to the Medici until 1743. In this period Santo Stefano reached its maximum splendor as an operational base of the Signoria of Florence for the flourishing trade of "carfagna" wool, produced here and then processed in Tuscany and sold throughout Europe. In the 19th century, with the Unification of Italy and the privatization of the lands of the Tavoliere delle Puglie, the thousand-year-old activity of transhumance ended and a process of decline of the village began, which saw a strong reduction in the population due to the phenomenon of emigration. In the 21st century, the ancient village is experiencing a rebirth thanks to tourism. In fact, in 1994 a young entrepreneur, Daniele Kihlgren, a Milanese of Swedish origin, arrived in the village and bought a large part of the village to build a widespread hotel. Thanks to the conservative recovery project of the landscape, traditions and buildings, he attracted the interest of the national and international press. This attracted new investors, causing all the economic activities in the area to develop considerably. On 6 April 2009 the village was hit by the earthquake that knocked down the Torre Medicea, the symbol of the village, and some houses, damaging many others. The restoration of the tower was completed in October 2021 following an intervention that lasted three years and cost around one million euros. The medieval village has seen many restoration works over time that have brought the village back to a pre-earthquake condition.
Santo Stefano di Sessanio est une commune italienne de 114 habitants dans la province de L'Aquila dans les Abruzzes. C'est l'une des communes les moins peuplées de la province et de la région et faisait partie de la communauté de montagne Campo Imperatore-Piana di Navelli. Inclus dans le Parc National du Gran Sasso et des Monti della Laga, il constitue l'une des portes d'accès à sa partie sud. Les premières nouvelles des quartiers inclus dans le territoire municipal de Santo Stefano di Sessanio appartenant au monastère de San Vincenzo al Volturno proviennent du Chronicon Vulturnense et remontent au début du IXe siècle. La première nouvelle certaine de l'existence de la colonie appelée Santo Stefano remonte à l'année 1239. Le travail étendu des ordres monastiques a déterminé une augmentation des terres cultivables, le repeuplement des campagnes même à haute altitude, ainsi que la naissance et consolidation des villages. fortifiés, d'autant plus sûrs que leur position est plus élevée.
À partir du XIIe siècle, Santo Stefano était inclus dans le district féodal de la baronnie de Carapelle qui comprenait également Carapelle Calvisio, Castelvecchio Calvisio, Calascio et Rocca Calascio. Santo Stefano a suivi les événements historiques de la baronnie jusqu'en 1806, année de l'abolition du féodalisme. Le village devint une domination de l'ordre des familles Pagliara, Plessis, Colonna, Celano, Caldora, Accrocciamuro, Piccolomini Todeschini, Del Pezzo, Cattaneo, Medici et Borbone. En 1474, sous les Aragonais, l'abolition de l'impôt sur les animaux et la réorganisation des pâturages des Pouilles permirent un fort développement du pastoralisme et de la transhumance au point que cette année-là, Santo Stefano, Calascio, Rocca Calascio et Carapelle eurent dans les douanes des Pouilles, pas moins de 94 070 moutons. Costanza, fille unique d'Innico Piccolomini, céda la baronnie de Carapelle à François Ier de Médicis, grand-duc de Toscane, en 1579. Ces terres appartenaient aux Médicis jusqu'en 1743. À cette époque, Santo Stefano atteignit sa splendeur maximale en tant que centre opérationnel base de la Seigneurie de Florence pour le commerce florissant de la laine "carfagna", produite ici puis travaillée en Toscane et vendue dans toute l'Europe. Au XIXe siècle, avec l'unification de l'Italie et la privatisation des terres de Tavoliere delle Puglie, l'activité millénaire de transhumance a pris fin et un processus de déclin du village a commencé, qui a vu la population fortement réduite en raison de la phénomène d'émigration. Au 21ème siècle, l'ancien village connaît une renaissance grâce au tourisme. En effet, en 1994, un jeune entrepreneur, Daniele Kihlgren, milanais d'origine suédoise, arrive dans la ville et achète une grande partie du village pour y construire un vaste hôtel. Grâce au projet conservateur de récupération du paysage, des traditions et des bâtiments, il a suscité l'intérêt de la presse nationale et internationale. Cela a attiré de nouveaux investisseurs, ce qui a permis à toutes les activités économiques de la région de se développer considérablement. Le 6 avril 2009, la ville a été frappée par un tremblement de terre qui a détruit la tour Médicis, symbole du village, et quelques maisons, endommageant de nombreuses autres. La restauration de la tour a été achevée en octobre 2021 après une intervention de trois ans qui a coûté environ un million d'euros. Le village médiéval a connu au fil du temps de nombreux travaux de restauration qui ont ramené la ville à l'état d'avant le tremblement de terre.

From abuse and neglect as a child, to his spiral into a life of homelessness, crime and addiction as a teen and young adult, Jesse Thistle tell the story of how he overcame his demons to pursue an education and become a professor at York University. A very compelling and readable book. One well worth investing the time to read.
Here’s a top-down 3D model of the Commonwealth Fusion reactor currently under construction in Massachusetts. The ring of 18 rectangles, looking like the company logo, are the Toroidal Field Magnets. These are the record-setting high-temp superconducting D-shaped magnets that run at 20 tesla. Photos here. They surround the Central Solenoid Coil, another custom-wound superconducting magnet.
All of this provides magnetic confinement of the hot plasma in a ring circulating through the hollow center of the D-shaped magnets. This is in lieu of gravity, a lot of gravity, that keeps the sun burning bright. When this SPARC lights, it will be a tiny star in a bottle.
