UN GIORNO DI FESTA PER LA COMUNITA’ SENEGALESE MURID
300 senegalesi in marcia per la pace, con le due bandiere, italiana e senegalese per una netta condanna al terrorismo. La marcia è un ponte tra persone unite dalla ricerca di un convivenza possibile.
L’arrivo in piazza Cavour è caratterizzato dai tanti colori dei vestiti della festa, i senegalesi sanno cosa vuol dire “entrare” in un paese diverso dal proprio. Ci sono anche i loro figli e nipoti, quelli che crescono nella nostra scuola.
Sotto i portici di piazza Cavour, sono seduti accanto, il capo religioso della dottrina Murad, Serigne Mame Mor Mbacke e il vicario generale della Diocesi, Don Maurizio Fabbri, il responsabile della Comunità senegalese, il console del Senegal a Milano e il presidente del Consiglio Comunale di Rimini, Sara Donati e altri….e insieme alla ricerca della pace.
Nell’incontro viene sottolineato quali sono i principi della dottrina Murad: valore del lavoro, educazione, non violenza, educazione dei giovani. Inoltre viene ricordato che chi rispetta le leggi del Paese ospitante non può avere problemi.
Per la gente di PACE camminare insieme non è difficile e con questo spirito nell’incontro si afferma che non è possibile lasciare spazio a strumentalizzare le religioni per fini criminali…tutti devono denunciare gli atti terroristici.
Il mondo ha bisogno di costruttori di pace e non di armi.

“Demonstration satellite solar power station – the materials for which would be carried into low earth orbit by Space Shuttle – is 1000 feet square and 25 feet thick. An operational station would be placed in geosynchronous orbit (about 22,000 miles out in space), from where it would beam a continuous stream of microwave energy to earth.”

“Rockwell Station '76
Rockwell Space Station Concept, 1976
American manned space station. Study 1975. North American Rockwell's 'Austere Modular Space Station' was in contrast to more grandiose schemes in the mid-1970's.
Status: Study 1975.
The most important application in those days was constructing large space structures, e.g., extremely large communications satellites, giant 20-kilometer-wide solar power satellites or even giant orbiting space colonies for millions of people. Contemporary space station studies such as Rockwell's and Boeing's were closely tied to this objective. NASA's Outlook for Space report from 1975 recommended a number of possible goals, including development of a 12-man space station in low Earth orbit by 1988 and a similar station in lunar orbit by 1994.

What appears to be the original ‘Austere Modular Space Station’ posting.
I’m sure also by Ted Brown:
www.friends-partners.org/mwade/craft/amsation.htm
An excellent one-two info combo from two disparate sources. Don’cha just love it when a ‘plan’ comes together?
However, while that’s all fine & dandy, what’s truly important, interesting & notable here is:
1.) That it’s by Ted Brown.
2.) That it’s part of an interwoven evolution, sequence & stream of variants and derivatives of similar & related works by Mr. Brown. I don’t recall identifying/recognizing anything like this pertaining to other artist’s works.
3.) Furthermore, within the following wonderful tribute video by Mr. Brown’s amazing & gracious daughter, Angela Carole Brown:

Commencing at the 2:54 mark, an extremely similar variant is shown.
And then, at the 3:24 mark, the close-up of Mr. Brown and an assistant would appear to be of them working on the details of the Manned Remote Workstation (that possibly being Grumman proprietary terminology) depicted in his 1980 “Space Products” mural, to which I’ve provided multiple links in the “Comment” section below.
Fascinating, at least to me.

The Rietveld Pavilion in the sculpture garden of the the Kröller-Müller Museum in Park Hoge Veluwe with sculptures by Hepworth, Couzijn & De Vries.
The famous Sculpture Garden of the Kröller-Müller Museum in Park Hoge Veluwe is one of the largest in Europe. The magnificent collection of sculptures is exhibited in an innovative way, surrounded by nature. Various artists, from the late 19th century to today, are represented: Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Richard Serra, Mario Merz, Jean Dubuffet and Claes Oldenburg.
The Rietveld Pavilion in the sculpture garden of the museum was restored in 2010. Gerrit Rietveld (1884-1964) designed the pavilion for the display of small sculptures at the Third International Sculpture Exhibition in Arnhem’s Sonsbeek Park in 1955. This ‘Sonsbeek Pavilion’ was intended as a temporary structure, and it was dismantled when the exhibition was over. On the initiative of several Dutch architects, the building found a permanent home in the Kröller-Müller Museum’s sculpture garden, under a new name: the ‘Rietveld Pavilion’. The second Rietveld Pavilion in the sculpture garden of the museum was built in 1965.
From the very outset, the maintenance of the Rietveld Pavilion was a constant source of concern. Every conceivable method was considered and tried, from conservation and restoration to copying and replacing parts of the building, but it eventually became clear that the structure was beyond saving. The 1965 pavilion has been disassembled. In 2010, the museum has rebuild the structure with new materials, while adhering as closely as possible to Gerrit Rietveld’s original design. Wherever possible, parts of the 1965 pavilion that were still in adequate condition have been reused. Construction work began in January and finished in September 2010. The new, third version of the pavilion now stands in the museum’s sculpture garden, preserving Rietveld’s world-famous design for the future. The pavilion is the property of the Government Buildings Agency (GBA) of the State of the Netherlands, which, as its owner, is responsible for its maintenance. The GBA was also overseeing the restoration project on behalf of the Kröller-Müller Museum

Traslado de material compuesto por 333-402 + 490-009 + 490-001 procedente de Valencia-Fuente San Luis y con destino en La Sagra a su paso por la estación de Alfafar-Benetússer.
Después de la famosa noticia del traslado de los Alaris a La Sagra decidimos quedar esa misma noche Adrián, Vicente y yo para darle caza cerca de Valencia ya que andábamos liados y subir más arriba lo veíamos una pérdida de tiempo.
Como no circulaban Cercanías a la hora a la que se efectuó descartamos ir a la Torre a hacer una nocturna, ya que no pararía, y por tanto nos decantamos por ir al puente peatonal de Alfafar, la cual fue una excelente idea por parte de Vicente.
A pesar de no ser una gran foto, además de ser a pulso e ir la composición a poco más de 30 km/h, creo que valió la pena dejar constancia de este traslado en nuestra ciudad ya que desconozco qué será de ellos ni adónde irán a parar.
Aprovecho para desearos a todos una feliz navidad y felices fiestas.

En fechas veraniegas como es en el caso de dicha captura. Tuve la oportunidad de poder ofrecerme unas merecidas vacaciones en mi querido pueblo Villasur, Provincia de Castilla y León. Uno de eso tal días donde podía realmente tener mi merecido tiempo, Así fue. Normalmente y por si acaso me lleve mi equipo de fotografía. Aprovechando esos días me pase a unos lugares donde realmente nunca había explorado y menos poder sacar alguna foto que otra. Mirando y explorando como no con GPS actuales. Realmente era necesario. En mi opinión he tenido que buscarme la vida para poder encontrar algo de ferrocarril cerca de donde estaba. Como veis en este caso en la localización exactamente en Dueñas, A fueras de Valladolid, No me esperaba algo así, Fue una autentica pasada de sitio. Es que positiva mente opino que lo tenia todo lo bueno, El terreno, La luminosidad, Margen de espacio. En fin sin palabras. Cabe decir que a lo lejos veremos la Estación de Dueñas actualmente. Después de estar normalmente 2 duras horas a pleno sol de la tarde, Un día de diario pudimos ver bastante movimiento. La verdad es que me sorprendió. Como podéis ver en la captura ya con las ultimas luces de la tarde. Debo recalcar que en mis carpetas de archivos no suelo tener normalmente cazado este tipo de circulaciones, Es mas casi prácticamente imposible poder cazar este tipo de composición exacta en Vizcaya. Como podéis ver pude cazar a estas doble Primas 333.392+333.345 formándose un bonito bobinero corto, A muy buena marcha minutos mas antes de salir de Venta de Baños. Con destino a Salamanca.
Un Saludo
We went back last Sunday to see if the Ravens were still building their nest. It seems they have almost finished. After the bulk of construction is complete, they'll line the cup of the nest with soft materials like grass, tree bark, moss, flowers, paper or fur. It looks like they have almost finished so she will soon be laying her eggs.
In one of Kolkatas moslem areas the floor of the street is decorated with paintings and bowls to celebrate the New Year.
As Priya Sharma wrote me it is called Rangoli :
Rangoli, also known as Kolam or Muggu, is a folk art from India in which patterns are created on the floor in living rooms or courtyards using materials such as colored rice, dry flour, colored sand or flower petals. It is usually made during Diwali (Deepawali), Onam, Pongal and other Indian festivals. They are meant to be sacred welcoming areas for the Hindu deities. Designs are passed from one generation to the next, keeping both the art form and the tradition alive. Similar practices are followed in different states of India: Rangoli in Karnataka, Kolam in Tamil Nadu, Mandana in Rajasthan, Chaookpurna in Chhattisgarh, Alpana in West Bengal, Aripana in Bihar, Chowk pujan in Uttar Pradesh, Muggu in Andhra Pradesh, Golam kolam or kalam in Kerala and others except in North eastern states.
The purpose of rangoli is decoration, and it is thought to bring good luck. Design depictions may also vary as they reflect traditions, folklore and practices that are unique to each area. It is traditionally done by women. Generally, this practice is showcased during occasions such as festivals, auspicious observances, marriage celebrations and other similar milestones and gatherings.
Rangoli designs can be simple geometric shapes, deity impressions, or flower and petal shapes (appropriate for the given celebrations), but they can also be very elaborate designs crafted by numerous people. The base material is usually dry or wet powdered rice or dry flour, to which sindoor (vermilion), haldi (turmeric) and other natural colors can be added. Chemical colors are a modern variation. Other materials include colored sand, red brick powder and even flowers and petals, as in the case of flower rangolis.

Después de fotografiarlo en la estación de Santa Eulália (con luz bastante pésima), tocó echar una carrera para cazarlo en el siguiente punto donde tendria una luz aceptable, ya que el horario del traslado y la dificultad de sitios de la línea sumados a un contraluz hacía realmente difícil defenderse con esta pieza para que saliera el frontal mínimamente iluminado.
Ahí le vemos habiendo dejado Assumar a pocos kilómetros, aproximándose a Portalegre, donde me tocó iniciar el regreso a España, no sin antes fotografiar el Allan saliendo de Elvas.

Esta semana LCR ha dado la sorpresa por la zona catalana moviendo material de obras, circulaciones curiosas realmente difíciles de cazar. La 333.316 abandona Barcelona camino de Tarragona, Reus y Madrid con una bateadora de FCC, y una perfiladora, otra bateadora y un estabilizador de Convensa recogidas en Riells, además de 4 tolvas de Convensa agregadas en Can Tunis. Lástima que no pudiera hacer la foto en las condiciones que quería.
