A 1955 Morris Minor that was for sale at $600 and was complete except for front seats and with just 43,000 miles on the clock.
Taken near Dimboola, Victoria in 2015.
Seen at the back of a 1956 Morris Minor Series II Convertible.
I don't know if this is a brake light or just a central rear light.
I discovered this old British vehicle with the next one (still to come) in an old historical street in East London: a perfect decor for these kind of classic cars.
The Minor was originally introduced in 1948 and designed by Alec Issigonis.
This type grille with horizontal slats was fitted from Oct. 1954.
1956 was the last year with a split window.
803 cc.

The pantheon at an oblique angle.
11/20/2004 When in Rome! Heather and Rich fly to Rome and have fun on their first day.
It is 11:30 pm local time, and oh but we've been footsore and on the way. It all started a couple of day ago, Thursday for us, when we left home about 6:40 pm with Maddy and Spencer. I officially finished the book by writing two chapter intros. I later got on line and learned that Schuyler planned to do intros for ch1 and ch6, and write the 'how gps works' section for ch5. This meant that I am, officially, at least until QC (quality control) comes back, done with the book.
Wow.
And we drove to Dad's and the kids were rambunctious until we opened up our new CD's for Harry Potter and the Prisonar of Azkaban...we listened to the first CD and that quieted them right down!
And we had a dinner at Dad and Judy's and then up to my Mom's, where we chatted a bit...then bed. And the 5:15 am alarm. It didn't feel all that bad, surprisingly.
The flight to NY went well. I watched the incredibly stupid, but still amusing, movie Anchor Man, heather geeked on our itinery. Then I did a bit, then geeked with my GPS.
Note to self...GPS is cool, and this whole idea of narrative of place is cool, but really, taking GPS tracks in Rome doesn't work that well. I think it is best supplemented with voice recordings of places and later geocoding to a map.
hmmm. I try and create meaning by automatically/quasi automatically parsing track logs of less meaningful trips or segments of trips-down I5 to go lobster diving, for example, but perhaps it is the meaning in the trip that is more important. The GPS is a tool for helping to look at that, but I think I can post process intermittent track points, coupled with memory and photos and voice recordings, to get a better sense of trip.
Anyway...the leg to NY went very quickly. Then we were stuck on the tarmac for a bit while our gate was cleared for us. Eeeks...I had to pee!
Then we actually were in a bit of a rush to make our connection...we got there before the 'we are closing the door on your ass' stage, but not much!
I felt a bit ick for a bit, but once I took an ibuprofen, got rid of my heart burn and had some dinner i was okay. We took sleeping pills when we took off. I took another one after dinner, and then forced myself to try to sleep.
It didn't feel as though it were working-almost as though the sleeping pill made weary but not asleep...odd feeling. But I guess I slepped. Heather woke me when they served breakfast. I did not wake easily, and I went back to sleep a couple of times. I was seeing double for part of the time.
Poor Heather says she only slept about 2 hours.
But we arrived, and waltzed through customs and onto the train. Amazing! About 10 euros apiece and we had a nice train ride with two Italian women and an italian man...we didn't really talk, but, oh well.
Into the train station, and a bit of trouble getting oriented to find our hotel. Now it is easy, but the first time was not so easy.
And then somehow it got later and we figured out the metro to go to the vatican. I was pissy about wanting to eat, and we had trouble with that-the place Heather wanted for us wasn't open until 12:30. We had okay ham and cheese sandwiches and excellent olives from a deli, ate in the plazza (?) by the gellatti milleneum.
Then we went up to the vatican. We had missed the vatican museum, sadly, but we perservered and toured Saint Peters. Heather and I were seperated at this point. I hooked up with a free tour guide and learned lots of great stuff.
Heather called when I was about to learn how to become a Swiss Guard. I accidentally hung up on her, and then couldn't figure out how to call her back, but I guessed she'd be in the front, and she was. She was pooped! But gamely lead me through the tombs of the popes. That is neat...it is so non-cave like...and yet, there is plenty of room for more of them :-)
Well we hiked back to the metro, metroe'd back to the train station and walked back to the hotel and took a 2ish hour nap...it was about 3:00 when we started this 'nap' thing.
Well we woke and did like the Romans, and then got ourselves out of the hotel. We took the 40 bus out and walked down to campo di fiori and did Rick Steve's 'Nighttime rome' walk...
We had dinner in the Piazza Navona at the 'Tre Scalini' cafe/Mokarabina coffee bar. We had drinks an appetizer and a primi-ie, we shared 1 appetizer and 1 primi, and a desert, shared, and it cost a bit. Later we saw what looked like better food for much less money. live and learn. I loved the pantheon (only the outside, as it was closed) and saw where kids had set up to camp at the pantheon, etc.
We got minorly scammed at the Trevi fountain over some flowers that were 'given' to us...and when I didnt' pay enough for them the guy took 2 of three back! ack. I was not too annoyed-I mean, I should know better, right?
And I took pictures and we made our way back to the hotel.

Anniece Minor is a Health Communications Specialist in the National Center for Chronic Disease and Public Health Promotion at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I am a sufferer of chronic migraines, and after work one day in November 2014, I went to stay at my sister’s house and lay down because of a severe migraine. Eventually I could no longer stand the pain, and my niece drove me to the emergency room. Once I arrived at the emergency room, I described my migraine to the physician. Per standard protocol, I was given an intake questionnaire. One of the questions asked about chest pain, and I reluctantly described the light chest pains I had been having for the past three days. I didn’t want to mention them because I suspected they were from indigestion caused by my diet. As a result of my chest pain, I was required to take an EKG (electrocardiogram test). An EKG records the heart’s electrical activity. When there is a blood clot near the heart, the heart has to work harder to circulate the blood, which can sometimes be detected by an EKG. My EKG results showed that I had a massive pulmonary embolism, which is a blood clot in the lungs. I was immediately placed on blood thinning medication, but unfortunately I had a negative reaction to the blood thinners. The doctors then experimented with different medications by infusing them into my bloodstream through an IV. Ultimately, I was hospitalized for 10 days, while receiving multiple procedures and treatments.
After I was released, I followed up with a pulmonary (lung) specialist. I underwent a procedure that placed a filter—an umbrella-like device—into my inferior vena cava, which is the large vein that returns blood to my heart from the parts of my body that are below my chest. It was a major operation that involved the insertion of the filter into the big vein, which could then prevent blood clots from traveling to my heart and into my lungs. The filter was removed in August, 2015.
My doctors determined that my clot was likely caused by a major surgical procedure I underwent in October, 2014. After the operation, I made an effort to move around and get my blood flowing, but there were many days when the pain was too intense for me to move around as much as I should have. My doctors believe that the clot started in my leg and then traveled through my heart and into my lungs.
Prior to my experience, I had never heard of blood clots. I was unfamiliar with the signs and symptoms, so I didn’t think anything of the chest pains I had in the days leading up to my hospitalization. I also attributed the lightheadedness I experienced to my migraine. Had I not developed the intense migraine, I may never have made it to the emergency room and may not have lived to share my story. Now that I am familiar with the signs and symptoms, it is easier for me to identify the chest pain and lightheadedness I had after a major surgery as symptoms of a blood clot in the lungs. The experience truly changed my life, and since then I have improved my self-care tremendously. I started taking better care of myself, including eating healthier, taking up Tai Kwon Do, and increasing my daily meditation and prayer. Through this experience, I realized that you can’t take your health or your life for granted and it’s important to listen to your body. Learn the signs and symptoms of a blood clot, and don’t ignore warning signs.

Those of you familiar with my stream will recognise this car from my other shots of it. It may be old school, but it's certainly a classic car.
One of my images, 'A minor portrait', has been selected for the Bath in Time - City on show exhibition this year. It is also due to be printed in this month's 'The Bath Magazine' amongst other images as part of a press release to advertise the exhibition. Hooray!
This photo got to #400 in Explore on Sunday, November 15th 2009.
The 238 van was available with conventional hinged doors or with sliding doors.
A minor restyle followed in 1977. Most importend difference was the black plastic grille.
The Fiat 328 is related to the bigger 1965-1974 Fiat 241. Both vans replaced the Fiat 1100T series (1957-1971).
Fiat vans slowly disappeared from our streets due to strong competition from Japanese vans.
Today this van is a rarity on Dutch streets. Most survivors are in use as motorhome.

Trip to Las Descargues 8th August - 18th August - Macro Moths
I made a trip back to Robin Howard's beautiful place in the Midi-pyrenees with my wife on the second week of August.
We planned to stay over our anniversary but we were unsure of what the weather would be like, so very opted for a slightly longer stay of 10 days incase the weather wasn't too good.
We are very glad that we did as the first 4 days were quite wet and windy and with daytime temperatures not getting much higher than 18 degrees, it felt like the trip back in June al over again!
Thankfully by Saturday the temperature had recovered and we were enjoying the sunshine finally and by Monday we made use of the stunning swimming pool that we had all to ourselves (although it was quite cold and took your breathe away). Typically on the last day (Thursday) it was really warm and the pool felt a bit warmer so we made the most of it!
Of course Moths were once again on the agenda, a I was granted permission to use traps aeound thr garden, extending to the ridge with a generator if I wanted to.
The first few nights were hard going and measly pickings but of course every trap had it's surprises in, and having not been here in August before there were plenty of moths that i'd never seen before.
2 of the traps on the first couple of nights got water-logged and then I had the challenging time of dealing with lively Hornets, albeit they are quite docile once the sun has rose and some mornings I just had to wait for it to get light before I could get near the traps.
We also lost one of the bulbs in the lower garden, I woke up to find it glowing green/white and thought it was odd and then getting nearer and realising the bulb had smashed, not good as Robin didn't have a 3-pin spare. How on earth it smashed when we had no rain that night (and it had a secure rainguard on it anyway) is beyond me. I could still see the light in my vision for about 15 minutes after which was slightly worrying!
By Saturday and Sunday, nights were really warm and temperatures kept in the high teens some nights even when the sky had cleared and working the traps in the morning (sometimes 4) was pretty hard work to say the least. Potting stuff up I didn't recognise, keeping a list on a notepad, the traps were full up and some mornings each trap had about 400 moths in, and I had 4 running! The best night I had around 160 species which is pretty incredible for August apprarently.
This first post I will list the Macro Moths that I saw on my trip.
I still have a few for identification as always but so far the Macro Moth species list stands at 193 species.
Species highlighted in red are completely new to me.
All of the Macro Moth species that I took photos of can now be viewed on my flickr page HERE

The region consists of the Antilles, divided into the larger Greater Antilles which bound the sea on the north, the Lesser Antilles on the south and east (including the Leeward Antilles), the Bahamas, and the Turks and Caicos Islands or the Lucayan Archipelago, which are in fact in the Atlantic Ocean north of Cuba, not in the Caribbean Sea.
Some islands in the region have relatively flat terrain of non-volcanic origin. These islands include Aruba (possessing only minor volcanic features), Barbados, Bonaire, the Cayman Islands, Saint Croix, The Bahamas or Antigua. Others possess rugged towering mountain-ranges like the islands of Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Dominica, Montserrat, Saba, Saint Kitts, Saint Lucia, Saint Thomas, Saint John, Tortola, Grenada, Saint Vincent, Guadeloupe, Martinique, and Trinidad & Tobago.
The climate of the region is tropical but rainfall varies with elevation, size and water currents (cool upwellings keep the ABC islands arid). Warm, moist tradewinds blow consistently from the east creating rainforest/semidesert divisions on mountainous islands. Occasional northwesterlies affect the northern islands in the winter. The region enjoys year-round sunshine, divided into 'dry' and 'wet' seasons, with the last six months of the year being wetter than the first half.
The waters of the Caribbean Sea host large, migratory schools of fish, turtles, and coral reef formations.
Hurricanes, which at times batter the region, usually strike northwards of Grenada, and to the west of Barbados. The principal hurricane belt arcs to northwest of the island of Barbados in the Eastern Caribbean.
The region sits in the line of several major shipping routes with the man-made Panama Canal connecting the western Caribbean Sea with the Pacific Ocean.
La constellation de la Petite Ourse est relativement pauvre en objets du ciel profond, mais contient cependant plusieurs galaxies : NGC 3172, NGC 5034, NGC 5144, NGC 5939, NGC 6071, NGC 6324 et NGC 6331.
La galaxie naine de la Petite Ourse UGC 9749 , qui est une galaxie naine sphéroïdale, a été découverte par Albert George Wilson à l'observatoire Lowell durant le Palomar Sky Survey en 195567. Son centre est distant d'environ ∼225 000 a.l. (∼69 000 pc) de la Terre68. En 1999, Kenneth Mighell et Christopher Burke ont utilisé le télescope spatial Hubble et ont confirmé qu'elle a connu un unique sursaut de formation d'étoiles qui a duré environ 2 milliards d'années et qui a eu lieu il y a environ 14 milliards d'années69, et que la galaxie est probablement aussi ancienne que la Voie lactée elle-même70.
NGC 6251 est une radiogalaxie elliptique géante localisée à plus de ∼340 millions d'a.l. (∼104 Mpc) de la Terre. Elle possède un noyau galactique actif de type Seyfert 2, et c'est l'un des exemples les plus extrêmes de galaxie de Seyfert. Cette galaxie pourrait être associée à la source de rayons gamma 3EG J1621+8203, qui émet des rayons gamma de haute énergie74. Elle est également connue pour son jet radio unilatéral — l'un des plus lumineux connus — et découvert en 197775 (cf. wikipédia).

Someone right now is leaving their apartment
Looking down at the street and wondering where their car went
Someone in the car sitting at a signal
In front of a restaurant, staring through the window
At someone right now with their finger in their teeth
Who could use a little floss right across the street
There's somebody on the curb who really needs a jacket
Spent half the rent at a bar getting plastered
Now he gotta walk fourteen blocks
To work at a shop where he's about to get fired
Someone right now is looking pretty tired
Staring at a laptop trying to get inspired
Somebody living right across the street
She wrote the best things she's written all week
But her best friends coughing up blood in the sink
Can't even think what happened, feeling so confused
And he knows it looks bad but there's nothing he can do
I wonder what it's like to be right there in his shoes
But no I'm just taking it in
Out the window of a hotel bedroom again
Tomorrow I'll be gone, I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can change just like that, like that
Yo, somebody right now is dropping his vote inside a box
And trying not to get shot in his throat
For the act of freedom right now somebody is stuck in Iraq
Hoping that he gets shipped back breathing
In a war that he's not really sure of the reasons
So we show our support when the press mislead them
Though we more than remain proud and salute the troops
Get some I know you boys got some work to do
Meanwhile right now someones 25 to life
And is standing on the corner with their thumb up hitchiking
Scratching off a lotto ticket hoping for a real winner
Sneaking through the border just to work and to eat a real dinner
Right now someone wishes they were you were not
Instead of second guessing freedom thoughts of quiet suicide
But right now I'm staring at the window at a frame
With holes in his arm and holes in his jeans
He pulled out his ciggerette sparked the light
And walked right around the corner just outta my sight
But yo I'm just taking it in
From the second story hotel window again
The TV's on and my bags are packed
But in this world everything can change just like that, like that
But yo I'm just taking it in
From the second story hotel window again
The TV's on, and my bags are packed
But in this world everything can change just like that, like that
Ya, right now somebody's sitting in the darkness
Trying to figure out how to put some heat in their apartment
But they got no mattress no carpet
And they appreciate it 'cause some people on a park bench
You see them when you rushing to get to the office
Wife robbed blind when she coming from the market
Right now somebody coming out from the pocket
Trying to dump that rock they run around the block with
The same time the cops is raising the glock with aim
To fill your legs and back with some hot shit
Right now somebody struggling to stop this man
Who's kicking and punching and cussing at the doctors
Down the hall the child taking his first breath
The doctors ain't even passed him to the nurse yet yo
I wonder if he understands what it's worth yet
Like the time spent while we here on the earth yet
The answer to the question that we all seek
Can be found depend on how free y'all think
Right now it's somebody who ain't eat all week
That would kill for the shit that you throw away in the street
I guess ones man's trash is the next man's treasure
One man's pain is the next man's pleasure
One say infinity the next say forever
Right now everybody got to get it together man
I'm just taking it in another strange hotel lobby again
Put my luggage on my back, I don't know where I'm at
I'm in world where we all change just like that
Yeah, but no I'm just taking it in
Out the window of a hotel bedroom again
Tomorrow I'll be gone, I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can change just like that, like that, yeah

Banking, commerce, communication, and the prosperity of the country. It is also a city with the longest name in the world. The river is important. River flow. The city is divided into two sides, is the capital and Thonburi. The City has a total area of 1568.737 square kilometers.
