Modified version of a photograph taken from a window of the ETN coach running between the city of Querétaro and Mexico City.
This was a fireplace that there was no way to get around without using a molding. My goal then was to use the smallest molding possible. Unfortunaly all the molding we had to work with were very big. Not a problem I took the smallest of the moldings and cut it right in half longways. As you can see in the end result I invented a new molding thats half the size and sits perfectly flush against the fireplace.
"The Hôtel de Ville (French pronunciation: [otɛl də vil], City Hall) is the city hall of Paris, France, standing on the Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville – Esplanade de la Libération in the 4th arrondissement. The south wing was originally constructed by François I beginning in 1535 until 1551. The north wing was built by Henry IV and Louis XIII between 1605 and 1628. It was burned by the Paris Commune, along with all the city archives that it contained, during the Semaine Sanglante, the Commune's final days, in May 1871. The outside was rebuilt following the original design, but larger, between 1874 and 1882, while the inside was considerably modified. It has been the headquarters of the municipality of Paris since 1357. It serves multiple functions, housing the local government council, since 1977 the Mayors of Paris and their cabinets, and also serves as a venue for large receptions.
The 4th arrondissement of Paris (IVe arrondissement) is one of the twenty arrondissements of the capital city of France. In spoken French, this arrondissement is referred to as quatrième. Along with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd arrondissements, it is in the first sector of Paris, which maintains a single local government rather than four separate ones.
The arrondissement, also known as Hôtel-de-Ville, is situated on the right bank of the River Seine. It contains the Renaissance-era Paris City Hall, rebuilt between 1874 and 1882. It also contains the Renaissance square of Place des Vosges, the overtly modern Pompidou Centre, and the lively southern part of the medieval district of Le Marais, which today is known for being the gay district of Paris. (The quieter northern part of Le Marais is within the 3rd arrondissement). The eastern part of the Île de la Cité (including Notre-Dame de Paris) and all of the Île Saint-Louis are also included within the 4th arrondissement.
The 4th arrondissement is known for its little streets, cafés, and shops but is often regarded by Parisians as expensive and congested. It has old buildings and a mix of many cultures.
Paris (French pronunciation: [paʁi]) is the capital and most populous city of France, with an estimated population of 2,150,271 residents as of 2020, in an area of 105 square kilometres (41 square miles). Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of finance, diplomacy, commerce, fashion, science and arts. The City of Paris is the centre and seat of government of the Île-de-France, or Paris Region, which has an estimated official 2020 population of 12,278,210, or about 18 percent of the population of France. The Paris Region had a GDP of €709 billion ($808 billion) in 2017. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit Worldwide Cost of Living Survey in 2018, Paris was the second most expensive city in the world, after Singapore, and ahead of Zürich, Hong Kong, Oslo and Geneva. Another source ranked Paris as most expensive, on a par with Singapore and Hong Kong, in 2018.
The city is a major railway, highway and air-transport hub served by two international airports: Paris–Charles de Gaulle (the second busiest airport in Europe) and Paris–Orly. Opened in 1900, the city's subway system, the Paris Métro, serves 5.23 million passengers daily; it is the second busiest metro system in Europe after the Moscow Metro. Gare du Nord is the 24th busiest railway station in the world, but the first located outside Japan, with 262 million passengers in 2015 Paris is especially known for its museums and architectural landmarks: the Louvre was the most visited art museum in the world in 2019, with 9.6 million visitors. The Musée d'Orsay, Musée Marmottan Monet, and Musée de l'Orangerie are noted for their collections of French Impressionist art, the Pompidou Centre Musée National d'Art Moderne has the largest collection of modern and contemporary art in Europe, and the Musée Rodin and Musée Picasso exhibit the works of two noted Parisians. The historical district along the Seine in the city centre is classified as a UNESCO Heritage Site, and popular landmarks in the city centre included the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris, on the Île de la Cité, now closed for renovation after the 15 April 2019 fire. Other popular tourist sites include the Gothic royal chapel of Sainte-Chapelle, also on the Île de la Cité; the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1889; the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, built for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1900; the Arc de Triomphe on the Champs-Élysées, and the Basilica of Sacré-Coeur on the hill of Montmartre.
Paris received 38 million visitors in 2019, measured by hotel stays, with the largest numbers of foreign visitors coming from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and China. It was ranked as the second most visited travel destination in the world in 2019, after Bangkok and just ahead of London. The football club Paris Saint-Germain and the rugby union club Stade Français are based in Paris. The 80,000-seat Stade de France, built for the 1998 FIFA World Cup, is located just north of Paris in the neighbouring commune of Saint-Denis. Paris hosts the annual French Open Grand Slam tennis tournament on the red clay of Roland Garros. The city hosted the Olympic Games in 1900, 1924 and will host the 2024 Summer Olympics. The 1938 and 1998 FIFA World Cups, the 2007 Rugby World Cup, as well as the 1960, 1984 and 2016 UEFA European Championships were also held in the city. Every July, the Tour de France bicycle race finishes on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

Beriah Green, Jr. (March 24, 1795 – May 4, 1874) was an American reformer and noted abolitionist.
Greene was born in Preston, Connecticut. He graduated from Middlebury College, Vt., in 1819, and then studied for the ministry at Andover Theological Seminary (1819-20) but his religious beliefs did not agree with any denominational creed.
In 1821 he was made professor of sacred literature in Western Reserve College in Hudson, Ohio.
The American Colonization Society (ACS) was very controversial at Western Reserve College. Students and faculty often had debates on the subject. At this time, William Lloyd Garrison became a great influence to Green. In 1832, Green used the chapel four Sundays in a row to attack the ACS and its supporters. This angered many trustees and clergymen.
Expecting to be fired, Green resigned in 1833 and became the president of the Oneida Institute in Whitesboro, New York, a Presbyterian institution. Green accepted the presidency at Oneida on two conditions: he was allowed to preach immediatism and he was allowed to accept African-American students. The Oneida Institute was a manual labor college founded in 1829, but it also had some liberal classical classes.
As president, Green dramatically changed the college by accepting numerous African Americans, more than any other college during the 1830s and 1840s. Green did not believe that it was right to have separate labor schools for blacks and whites. This belief led him to attempt to get Gerrit Smith to merge his black manual labor college with the Oneida Institute.
Many well-known black leaders and abolitionists were students at Oneida while Green was president. These include William Forten, Alexander Crummell, Rev. Henry Highland Garnet and Rev. Amos Noë Freeman.
In 1832, Green began to correspond with Gerrit Smith on the issue of black education. The two men became very close friends and much of what is known about Green is known from their letters. The two men worked together toward the goal of abolition. They continued correspondence until 1872, when they stopped writing because of long held disagreements about civil government and political abolition.
Green presided over the 1833 meeting of the American Anti-Abolition Society in Philadelphia. He was famous for refuting the arguments of men who used the Bible to defend slavery. In the late 1830s, Green focused most of his time contesting these arguments.
The Panic of 1837 hit the Oneida Institute hard and the college began to decline. Green also had begun to lose favor with conservative Presbyterians, which added to Oneida’s troubles. Green became a troublemaker in the religious community of the North after he formed a separation congregation of abolitionist-minded members of the Whitesboro's First Presbyterian Church in 1837.
In 1844, the Oneida Institute was sold to the Freewill Baptists because of financial problems. After the Oneida Institute closed, Green became an active supporter of the Liberty Party. This was a third party that was completely devoted to the abolition of slavery. After the party failed to make an impact on American politics, Green became bitter with the democratic process. He did not like popular democracy and was in favor of an oligarchy or modified theocracy. Unlike many Liberty Party members, Green did not join the Free Soil Party. He was worried that abolition would not be part of the major party principles.
After fellow abolitionists did not support his ideas about government, Green became resentful and did not travel far from Whitesboro. He supported his wife and children by farming and preaching to small groups of abolitionists.
In 1860, Green published a collection of his writings, titled Sermons and Other Discourses with Brief Biographical Hints.
He died on May 4, 1874 while giving a speech on temperance in Whitesboro.

Dopo il grandissimo successo de “La Finale” del 1° giugno, l’incredibile concerto con cui ha riempito lo stadio di San Siro insieme a Fedez per concludere insieme la collaborazione artistica durata due anni, J-Ax torna ad esibirsi live con “J-Ax 25 – Live”, il live show da solista in 10 date evento al Fabrique di Milano.
Per una parte del concerto Dj Jad affiancherà J-Ax sul palco per celebrare insieme a lui i suoi 25 anni di carriera. Dopo 15 anni, sarà finalmente possibile tornare ad ascoltare dal vivo i brani degli Articolo 31 che hanno fatto la storia del panorama musicale italiano degli anni ‘90.
Ospiti della serata, Max Pezzali e Paola Turci.
«Eccomi qua. 25 anni di carriera. Perché vado ancora avanti? Che cosa volevo fare 25 anni fa? Io, in questa vita, sono venuto per vivere ad alta voce. Per dare fastidio. Per far spostare da dov’è seduto comodo il conformismo italiano e fargli cambiare vagone.
Sono partito da zero, dal paese di 1738 abitanti e sono arrivato a riempire lo stadio con 79500 persone.
Per essere felice non mi serve altro che fare musica.
Per questo motivo 25 anni di carriera significa celebrare voi con 5 concerti al Fabrique di Milano. Un modo per vederci dritto in faccia e per farvi vedere il mio futuro.
“Il problema del mondo,” diceva Charles Bukowski, “è che le persone intelligenti sono piene di dubbi, mentre le persone stupide sono piene di sicurezza”. Nel dubbio, sono sicuro che questa sarà la scelta migliore.»
Con questa parole l’artista descrive la sua nuova avventura al Fabrique di Milano. Un vero precursore, J-Ax, capace di anticipare i tempi e in grado di rendersi sempre nuovo, restando costantemente in prima linea, protagonista assoluto di una trasformazione culturale e musicale che nel nostro Paese ha visto il genere del rap passare da fenomeno di nicchia a vero e proprio evento di massa, con una crescente popolarità, in particolare tra le nuove generazioni, che considerano l’artista un grande punto di riferimento del rap del passato e del presente.
Nel 1990 fonda, insieme a Dj Jad, gli Articolo 31. Nel 2006 il fortunato sodalizio si scioglie e J-Ax intraprende la carriera solista. Nel 2006 esce l’album “Di Sana Pianta” seguito nel 2009 dal secondo disco intitolato “Rap’n’Roll”. Dopo “Deca Dance” del 2009, l’anno successivo J-Ax crea il duo Due di Picche insieme a Neffa e i due artisti pubblicano il disco “C’eravamo Tanto Odiati”. Il rapper milanese diventa anche un noto volto televisivo in programmi cono The Voice of Italy e Amici, dove ricopre il ruolo di coach. Nel 2015 arriva “Il Bello d’Esser Brutti” e nell’estate 2016 esce “Vorrei ma non posto”, il singolo da record con 7 certificazioni platino e oltre 172 milioni di views, che porterà l’artista a scrivere a 4 mani insieme a Fedez “Comunisti col Rolex”, il disco più venduto del 2017 in Italia e certificato triplo disco di platino.
L’11 maggio 2018 è uscita “25 Ax – Il Bello di essere J-Ax”, la raccolta con cui il rapper celebra i suoi 25 anni di discografia, che contiene i suoi successi più significativi, a partire dalle origini e includendo un lasso di tempo che va idealmente dal 1993 – anno in cui usciva il primo album degli Articolo 31 intitolato Strade di Città – fino ad oggi.

This tool, common on flea bay, comes with two identical cross-beams that help keep it stiff. Replacing one with a simple nail, cut to requirements, allows the tool to be narrowed for reaching into the film chambers of old TLRs to loosen the locking ring holding the lens assembly to the body.
The lens is removed and a spare eyepiece barrel is attached to the barrel. The tape covers holes made when I removed the microphone and some other parts I didn't need.
