Its incredible how FAST the butterflies are.. Shot at 1/750s and still the motion blur...this is not camera shake (evident with the bottom left flower sharpness!)

 

WOW.. getting motion blur at such speed just shows how the butterflies take off and why its so hard to photograph them IN-FLIGHT!

 

I tried to catch the butterflies in flight literally dozens of times during this vacation... but this is the only one i have with me to showcase!

Check out the hole in mah head!!

 

Whew, this is the craziest picture i have ever done. All because from setting up the camera to uploading the pic,i had 1 hour 25 mins.

See, i misread the time zone stuff

for the FLICKR ISLAND and didnt realize it had to be up by noon. ...

 

Big thanks to my Roommie Danakin skywalker for taking charge of the

yard sale schtuff we had going on.

 

Eeeesh.

wish i had more time to really make the 3-d-ness of it more solid,but this

is what i got.

 

Good luck To TOM in our Final round competition!

 

this may or may not be my 365 for the day,it all depends on what happens

with the other photo i had planned last night.

PARA TODOS LOS AMIGOS DE BIODIVERSIDAD VIRTUAL POR COMPARTIR DOS MAGNÍFICOS DÍAS DE AMISTAD Y TRABAJO

  

Exposición LA VIDA OCULTA DEL AGUA; en el Centro del Agua de Daimiel del 21 de diciembre al 20 de febrero.

 

Artículo LA BIODIVERSIDAD OCULTA

 

Cephalodella es un rotífero de pequeño tamaño y generalmente gran cabeza, y está representado por cerca de 190 especies que se reparten por las aguas de todo el Planeta.

 

La corona de Cephalodella se dispone oblicua con respecto al eje del cuerpo de este rotífero y es muy discreta si la comparamos por su tamaño con las de otros géneros más o menos próximos como Philodina o Ptygura. Su corto pie está formado por dos dedos alargados en forma de espina con los que se ancla a las algas o a los grumos de sedimento desde donde filtra el agua.

 

El género Cephalodella pertenece a un grupo de complicado reconocimiento. Las características de cada una de las especies, con frecuencia resultan difíciles de observar...y más todavía en ejemplares vivos. La cabeza de este rotífero es ancha y su aparato masticador puede presentar hasta seis formas diferentes.

 

Cephalodella tiene solo un pequeño ojo situado en la frente, otras veces, desplazado un poco hacia atrás se dispone en la “nuca”.

 

Hoy Cephalodella se ha asentado en un mullido colchón de sedimento y se dedica a bascular filtrando el agua y en este balanceo va recogiendo las pequeñas algas y otros diminutos organismos que le sirven de alimento.

 

La fotografía se ha tomado a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia sobre una muestra recogida hace unas semanas en una laguna próxima a la localidad zamorana de Ricobayo

Yes, I know I was in Marrakech and not in Casablanca, but how many people are there who don't think of Casablanca when they think of Morocco?

 

One of the things that I simply did not expect in Morocco was just how people react to having their photos taken. As I've learned since returning to the States, its a common occurrence in Africa for a photographer to have to pay to take a photo. Some sources claim this is because people there are under the impression that we photographers will just try to commercialize their face while other sources say it's a more spiritual thing and has something to do with their souls.

 

Regardless of the reason, I wasn't really up for paying for photos and I didn't want to play the classic Douchebag With a Camera game, so I decided it'd be a good opportunity to practice shooting from the hip. It wasn't easy, but it was certainly a lot of fun trying, especially since I was using a zoom lens and tried my hand at choosing focal length blind as well. Admittedly, I spent most of the time around 35mm since I know exactly what to expect there.

 

As with the last photograph from Morocco that I posted, this one was taken in the Djemaa el Fna medina of Marrakech.

Been here a few times never happy due to the light and sky until today worth the £6 entrance fee as the gardens and flowers looked amazing.Think my job is done at this amazing location ;-)

    

An ancient site dating back to the 7th century was originally owned by the church but later acquired by the Button family in the 16th century. The name was changed to Dyffryn St. Thomas when the estate was sold to Thomas Pryce, who built the first building to be known as Dyffryn House. John Cory bought the estate in 1891 and built the present house two years later. He later commissioned Thomas Mawson to landscape the gardens to complement his magnificent house. After John Cory's death in 1910, his third son, Reginald, a keen horticulturalist and leading figure in the RHS, developed the gardens and arboretum notably through his joint sponsorship of several plant hunting expeditions. The most remarkable of the results of this is the Paper Bark Maple, Acer griseum, which was grown from seed brought back from China by Ernest Wilson.

 

After Reginald Cory's death in 1934, the estate went to his daughter Florence who died just two years later. It was then bought by Sir Cennydd Traherne who leased it in 1939 to Glamorgan County Council on a 999 year lease. The Grade I listed gardens are being restored in two phases with grants from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The first phase is for £3.25 million and the second for £2.9 million.

This is the Bagdad Cafe on Route 66 in Newberry Springs, California. The car out front belongs to my friends Hans and Jonas Hannsson of Malmo, Sweden, and is a Volvo PV they customized themselves into the hot rod convertible you see here. They temporarily imported this car for a long wished for trip across the U.S. on Route 66. They had a wonderful time!

 

The original photo was taken by Jonas Hansson, and with Jonas' permission, I've been selecting some of my favorite photos of their road trip along the "Mother Road" and doing some post processing... enhancing, cropping, tone mapping, special effects, etc. The original photo was not so great. I used Photoshop to crop and enhance the photo, then my Photoshop filter "Fractalius" to turn it into a digital painting/drawing.

 

Below is a link to Hans and Jonas' blog about their historic trip:

INFORMATION ON THE BAGDAD CAFE:

 

Bagdad Cafe, a movie centering on old Route 66, was filmed in the Newberry Springs area. The Bagdad Cafe located in Newberry Springs is not the original Bagdad Cafe, the original cafe was located in the town of Bagdad between Amboy and Ludlow on old Route 66. Nothing remains of the old cafe in Bagdad. The Newberry Springs cafe is a Route 66 survivor though and was once known as the Sidewinder Cafe. After the movie was filmed here the name Bagdad Cafe just seemed to stick. It is open for business today serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you are coming through the area I would recommend stopping here. Say hi to Andrea Pruett, the proprietor, while you're at it. She has done a great job of keeping the Bagdad Cafe alive for all us Mother Road fans. If you're lucky, maybe General Bob will show up and entertain you with his colorful stories from the past! The nearest large town to the Cafe is Barstow. You'll find the Bagdad Cafe between the east and west off-ramps of I-40, at Newberry Springs, east of Barstow

 

INFORMATION ON NEWBERRY SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA:

 

The area around Newberry Springs has been a source of water in the arid Mojave Desert since the earliest days. The site of Camp Cady is located a few miles from present day Newberry Springs, and was a resting place and watering hole along the Mojave River for wagon trains coming to California in the 1850's on the old Mormon Trail. In the 1880's the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad hauled tank cars of water from Newberry Springs to the stations and towns in the area making life in this arid land possible.

Cuesta no pensar que la cantidad de filtraciones e información alrededor de la próxima película de Star Wars no le esté viniendo bien a Disney tras la controvertida compra de los estudios LucasArts por parte de este gigante y el anuncio a los pocos días de que se ponía en marcha el proyecto para tener más Star Wars de la mano de Disney.

Queda todavía más de un año para que llegue, pero la expectación es máxima alrededor de todo lo que tiene que ver con Star Wars Episodio 7. Aquí te dejamos con lo principal que se conoce hasta ahora para que vayas abriendo boca.

La historia

 

Lógicamente, la historia es el secreto mejor guardado de la nueva entrega de Star Wars. Lo único que se conoce con certeza es el momento temporal en que transcurrirá la película: 30 años después de los acontecimientos del episodio anterior, “El Retorno del Jedi”.

Ya entrando en el terreno de los rumores y especulaciones, el inicio de la película estaría protagonizado por una mano, concretamente la de Luke Skywalker, flotando por el espacio sujetando su sable láser.

Al encontrarla en un desierto, los protagonistas de la nueva entrega (se habla de un trío que incluye a un adolescente o niño), ayudados por Han Solo y Chewbacca, iniciarían la búsqueda de Luke, del que nadie sabe nada desde hace 30 años. ¿Adivináis donde estaba? Justo, cautivo por los nuevos malos de la película.

De los pocos detalles con interés que ha dejado caer Abrams sobre el Episodio VI está el uso de menos efectos especiales generados por ordenador, no al menos al nivel de los primeros tres episodios (tras la trilogía original).

Lo único seguro sobre la historia de Star Wars Episodio VII es que transcurrirá 30 años después de “El Retorno del Jedi”

Episodio VII, que no tiene todavía título oficial definitivo, empezó a rodarse en mayo de este año en los estudios Pinewood de Londres. Del éxito de esta primera parte de la siguiente trilogía (cada película irá separada de la otra con un spin off de los principales protagonistas) dependerá la acogida de las siguientes, aunque solo con el nombre y la legión de fans y seguidores, el ruido está garantizado.

El director y equipo técnico

 

Tener entre las manos las nuevas entregas de Star Wars no es tarea sencilla. La especulación con los posibles directores de los tres siguientes episodios de la saga galáctica se cortó con el anuncio de que J.J. Abrams (responsable de Star Trek o Misión Imposible II y muy prolífico en televisión) sería el director de la orquesta de responsables que Disney iba a poner delante de este esperado retorno de la famosa saga galáctica.

El propio Adams junto con Lawrence Kasdan (responsable El Retorno del Jedi y El Imperio Contraataca) será el guionista (tras un paso en falso con Michael Arndt) de esta producción que cuenta con otros importantes nombres detrás de los apartados de producción, como Tommy Harper, Jack Ryan o Jason McGatlin, todos ellos con mucha experiencia en grandes superproducciones.

Star Wars Episodio VII se rodará en 35 mm, una decisión de su director de fotografía, Dan Mindel. El diseñador de vestuario será otro conocido: Michael Kaplan.

De la música, parte para mi fundamental e histórica de los primeros episodios, se ha conseguido que se encargue el maestro jedi con batura que es John Williams.

 

El reparto

Tras decidir el director y parte del equipo técnico, el reparto generó bastantes especulaciones hasta que se produjo el anuncio oficial. Con Han Solo apareciendo en el desarrollo del argumento de la nueva entrega, era lógico que por allí apareciera Harrison Ford.

Que el grueso del reparto original vaya a tener presencia en el Episodio VII es un claro guiño a los seguidores y una atracción más para acudir a ver la película

El Han Solo de más de 70 años estará acompañado por los otros dos actores principales de las películas originales: Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) y Carrie Fisher (Princesa Leia). Y no faltarán Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) o los entrañables actores Anthony Daniels y Kenny Baker en sus papeles de C-3PO y RD-D2 respectivamente. Esta vuelta al pasado es sin duda un seguro que Disney ata para tener el apoyo, el menos moral, de parte de los fans de la saga original.

 

Entre las nuevas caras, hay tanto veteranos como rostros conocidos del cine y la televisión de los últimos años. Como protagonistas principales tendremos a los actores John Boyega y Daisy Ridley, que compartirán aventuras con, entre otros, Adam Driver, Lupita Nyongo, Oscar Isaac, Max von Sydow y Andy Serkis.

 

La “famosa” foto con la que se anunció el reparto principal de Star Wars Episodio VII

 

La anécdota relacionada con el reparto e inicio de la grabación tiene a Ford como protagonista. Un mes después de iniciarse el rodaje en mayo de este año, Harrison Ford se rompió un tobillo, cosas del destino, con una puerta de su Halcón Milenario. La grabación tuvo de detenerse y esta misma semana se ha reanudado el trabajo el ritmo habitual, que tendrá lugar en localizaciones de Islandia y Emiratos Árabes además del Reino Unido.

Fecha del estreno

Llevamos ya un largo periplo alrededor de Star Wars Episodio 7, pero todavía nos queda un buen trecho por recorrer.

La fecha de estreno anunciada, el 18 de diciembre de 2015, se va a mantener pese a que estuvo en teoría en peligro por el accidente de un Ford que parece mayor para luchar en esta guerra.

Perhaps the most striking and spectacular impression of Stone Town for its first time visitor is the magnificent wooden doors serving as prosperous entrances to the grand buildings.

 

The doors have become more or less synonym with the Swahili culture where they mainly are found in East Africa, Lamu and Mombasa (Kenya) and in Zanzibar. The doors in Zanzibar outnumber the doors, both in number and in grandness, found elsewhere along the coast, and thus being named ‘Zanzibar doors’. An inventory done in the 1980ies reported around 800 doors. Unfortunately has the number decreased, not only due to the diminishing of several houses, but also due to theft following the increased attention from international collectors.

 

The doors are manifestations in excellent craftsmanship, both technically and artistically. The oldest doors are often made out of Burma (Indian) teak, shipped all the way from Asia across the Indian Ocean. The shutters are made in one impressive piece and not mended together as is the case on newer doors. The Burma teak does no longer exist and the alternative has been the East African teak. Even this wood has become rare and difficult to find, often demanding a very high price.

 

The wealthy traders and house owners appointed skilled carvers brought in from India for the delicate job of arranging the entrance ornament. Their creativity is continuously at display.

 

In principal there are two types of doors found in Stone Town. The Indian doors, or Gujarati doors, with square shutters and made into smaller sections so that the door can fold together. These doors are to be seen along the busy bazaar streets where the Indian businessmen lived. The second type is called ‘Arab doors’, these doors are often found with an inscription in Arabic – most likely a phrase from the Holy Quraan – on the top frieze, and richly decorated around the frame. The older doors were all square at top. The semi-circular frames were introduced later, but are still referred to as ‘Arab doors’.

 

The custom of putting brass knobs on the shutters comes from India, where the knobs were said to prevent elephants from crushing the doors. Since there have been no violent elephants in Zanzibar the brass knobs were simply but there as a decoration and to show the wealth of its owner.

 

By looking at the lower part of the side posts and rough estimate can be done of the age of the door. The oldest doors have a symbol resembling of a fish. The fish gradually transformed into a shape of a pineapple and thus if the carving shows a clear and distinct pineapple the doors is of a younger generation. Another symbol that became part of the decoration was the chain-like row at the very outside of the whole door. The chain was said to protect the entrance from evil spirits.

Thanks to Thomas (Mio Cade) for this Bali Trip. Saw this girl and noticed that her thoughts seem to be elsewhere.

 

The biggest Hindu's festival called Galungan and Kuningan, both falling every six months or twice a year in Balinese calendar or every 210 days because in Balinese calendar are consist of 35 days in each month. Both celebrations are for celebrating the winning of good (Dharma) over the bad (Adharma). Usually, people will go for their hometown to celebrate these days together with family. They will pray to Ancestors at the family's Temple and some Temples in the village which are related to their family root.

 

The last day of those three is the Post Galungan Day which is Manis Kuningan. This is the time for visiting friends, relatives who live in other area of their living or hometown. The people who are visited welcome the visitors warmly and serves with tape (fermented sticky rice) and jaja uli (rice cake). The togetherness and warmth can be maintained from time to time.

Location: Southern End of the Maidan, Calcutta

Period of construction: 1839-1847

Dedicated to: St. Paul

 

Calcutta St. Paul's Cathedral is the first Episcopal Church of the Orient. Bishop Wilson patronized the construction of this beautiful church in 1839. The credit for the awesome designing of this Indo-Gothic architecture goes to Major W.N. Forbes. The work of establishing the St. Paul Cathedral of Kolkata, India was completed in 1847. It is situated at the southern end of the Maidan. The church was destroyed due to the earthquake of 1897 and then it was renovated. But, the earthquake of 1934 led to the collapse of the tower and eventually it was rebuilt on the lines of the Bell Harry Tower of Canterbury Cathedral. It is 247 ft. in length and 81 ft. in width. The main hall of the cathedral is very large containing splendid carved wooden pews and chairs. Its eastern walls are covered with intricate colorful artwork. The beautiful pictures describe the life and works of Saint Paul. The atmosphere of this cathedral is very tranquil. The architecture and the interim of the Saint Paul Cathedral is truly a feast for eyes.

Tess, Gabriel's transgender daughter, is the biggest reason we were all there on Friday evening, and somehow we all managed to squish her almost out of sight in this picture! The girl on the left is one of her best friends, and I don't remember her name. That's Uber-Go-Team-Dad Gabriel in the background; his current wife Kornelija on the right and his ex-wife Stephanie to my right. To Stephanie's right is her friend Mayte, who whipped the selfie stick out of her purse when I said I wanted to get a shot of us all. She offered to take the photo but knowing she was part of the group I told her I wanted her in it. (Turns out Tess's friend's parents were also there so I guess there was a bigger group than I thought, and maybe that means I excluded some people here?) P.S. Mayte was also the name of the woman Prince was married to between 1996 and 2000. She was a belly dancer. I'm pretty sure this Mayte was none of those things.

Cuando el agua tiene mucha materia orgánica que sirve de alimento a las bacterias, aparecen gran cantidad de cilados y de rizópodos -amebas- que gustan de este manjar...también nosotros las tomamos por billones cuando comemos un yogur.

 

Paramecium trichium al igual que Paramecium caudatum no las puede tomar a cucharadas así que absorbiéndolas una a una, como si se tratase de rizos de espaguetis, las va recogiendo del agua, con los remolinos generados con sus cilios y así, poco a poco, le devuelve su transparencia original.

 

Paramecium trichium no es quizá el paramecio más esbelto y elegante, ni brilla con el verdor de Paramecium bursaria, pero hace una importantísima labor depurando el agua.

 

Su cuerpo plano y más o menos ovalado deja ver en el borde algunos cilios y también los tricocistos que son su arma secreta. En su interior, además del núcleo suelen verse dos vacuolas contráctiles que expulsan el exceso de agua que entra en su interior. Él se queda con las bacterias, restos de materia orgánica y pequeñas algas, y devuelve un agua limpia mientras su interior se va oscureciendo hasta hacerse casi opaco.

 

La fotografía procede de unas muestras de agua recogidas en el Cañón del Río Lobos, en Soria, por Mª Ángeles y Jesús y ha sido realizada con la técnica de contraste de interferencia a 400 aumentos ¡¡¡ Muchísimas gracias "mayjes" y que disfrutéis del fin de semana!!!

ENGLISH

Prayer flags are colorful panels or rectangular cloths often found strung along mountain ridges and peaks high in the Himalayas to bless the surrounding countryside or for other purposes. Unknown in other branches of Buddhism, prayer flags are believed to have originated with Bön, which predated Buddhism in Tibet. Traditionally they are woodblock-printed with texts and images.

 

The Indian Buddhist Sutras, written on cloth in India, were transmitted to other regions of the world. These sutras, written on banners, were the origin of prayer flags. Legend ascribes the origin of the prayer flag to the Shakyamuni Buddha, whose prayers were written on battle flags used by the devas against their adversaries, the asuras. The legend may have given the Indian bhikku a reason for carrying the 'heavenly' banner as a way of signifying his commitment to ahimsa. This knowledge was carried into Tibet by 800 CE, and the actual flags were introduced no later than 1040 CE, where they were further modified. The Indian monk Atisha (980-1054 CE) introduced the Indian practice of printing on cloth prayer flags to Tibet.

 

Lung Ta (meaning "Wind Horse") horizontal prayer flags are of square or rectangular shape and are connected along their top edges to a long string or thread. They are commonly hung on a diagonal line from high to low between two objects (e.g., a rock and the top of a pole) in high places such as the tops of temples, monasteries, stupas or mountain passes.

 

Traditionally, prayer flags come in sets of five, one in each of five colors. The five colors represent the elements, and the Five Pure Lights and are arranged from left to right in a specific order. Different elements are associated with different colors for specific traditions, purposes and sadhana:

 

- Blue (symbolizing sky/space)

- White (symbolizing air/wind)

- Red (symbolizing fire)

- Green (symbolizing water)

- Yellow (symbolizing earth)

CASTELLANO

Las banderas de oración son coloridos paneles o paños rectangulares a menudo encadenados a lo largo de las crestas y de los picos de las montañas en el Himalaya para bendecir el terreno circundante o para otros propósitos. Desconocido en otras ramas del Budismo, se cree que las banderas de oración se originaron con Bön, que precedió el Budismo en el Tíbet. Tradicionalmente los textos y las imágenes son impresiones con plancha.

 

El Sutras budista indio, escrito en el paño en la India, fue transmitido a otras regiones del mundo. Estos sutras, escritos en banderas, eran el origen de las banderas de oración. La leyenda atribuye el origen de la bandera del rezo al Buda Shakyamuni, cuyos rezos fueron escritos en las banderas de batalla usadas por los devas contra sus adversarios, los asuras. La leyenda pudo haber dado al bhikku indio una razón para llevar la bandera “divina” como manera de significar su compromiso al ahimsa. Este conocimiento fue llevado en Tíbet por el año 800 DC, y las banderas reales fueron introducidas antes del 1040 DC, donde fueron modificadas más a fondo. El monje indio Atisha (980-1054) introdujo en el Tíbet la práctica india de la impresión en banderas de oración.

 

Las banderas horizontales de oración Lung Ta (significa “caballo del viento”) son de forma cuadrada o rectangular y están conectadas a lo largo de sus bordes superiores con una larga cuerda o hilo. Normalmente se cuelgan en una línea diagonal de arriba a abajo entre dos objetos (por ejemplo, de una roca a la punta de un poste) en lugares altos tales como las puntas de templos, de monasterios, de estupas o de pasos de montaña.

 

Tradicionalmente, las banderas de oración van en grupos de cinco, cada una de uno de cinco colores. Los cinco colores representan los elementos, y las cinco Luces Puras se disponen de izquierda a derecha en un orden específico. Los diversos elementos se asocian a diversos colores para tradiciones, los propósitos y el sadhana específicos:

 

- Azul (simbolizando cielo/espacio)

- Blanco (simbolizando aire/viento)

- Rojo (simbolizando fuego)

- Verde (simbolizando agua)

- Amarillo (simbolizando tierra)

On 31 July 2004, Sir Tom unveiled the water feature sculpture "The Splash", by sculptor Peter Hodgkinson, which stands outside The National Football Museum. The sculpture was inspired by the 1956 Sports Photograph of the Year which features Tom Finney beating two defenders at a waterlogged Stamford Bridge.

Now aged 89, Finney is one of England's oldest living former international footballers. As of February 2011, he is also one of only three surviving players from England's 1950 World Cup squad. The others are Bert Williams and Roy Bentley.

2/12/09, Animals fall victim to Australian fire

 

FULL STORY: newsok.com/animals-fall-victim-to-australian-fire/article...

 

SYDNEY -- Wildlife rescue officials worked frantically to help the animals that made it through Australia’s worst-ever wildfires, but they said millions of animals likely perished in the inferno. Hundreds of burned, stressed and dehydrated animals -- including kangaroos, koalas, lizards and birds -- already have arrived at shelters across the scorched region. Rescuers have doled out antibiotics, pain relievers and fluids to the critters in a bid to keep them comfortable, but some of the severely injured were euthanized to spare any more suffering.

IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare) has sent an emergency relief team to help wild and domestic animals affected by the devastating fires in Victoria. Tania Duratovic is leading the IFAW team in Whittlesea. We arrived in Whittlesea (2/9/09) and set up in the staging area...

 

Today we traveled to Kinglake West and Kinglake Central - two of the worst hit areas. Remnants of trees and piles of rubble are all that is left of what used to people’s homes and indeed whole towns. People are happy...to see something emerge alive from the devastation. As one person recounted as they handed over a slightly burned ring-tailed possum, “We have lost our house, our neighbours and our pets but we found this little guy alive -- please help him, I just want him to live.”

8. Survivors Of The Fire – Symbols of Hope

 

2/11/09, Aussies find symbols of hope in two koalas

SYDNEY -- A bond between two burned koalas rescued from Australia's deadliest wildfires has provided some heart-warming relief after days of devastation and the loss of more than 180 lives and possibly millions of animals. The story of the koalas emerged after volunteer firefighter David Tree used a mobile phone to photograph and film the rescue of the bewildered female, since nicknamed Sam, that was found cowering in a burned-out forest at Mirboo North, 90 miles southeast of Melbourne.

 

Photos and video of Tree, 44, approaching Sam while talking gently to her, and feeding her water from a plastic bottle as she put her burned claw in his cold, wet hand quickly hit YouTube, making her an Internet sensation.

 

But it was after reaching a wildlife shelter that Sam met and befriended another koala, nicknamed Bob, who was saved by wildlife workers two days before Sam, in Boolarra, about 110 miles from Melbourne...

'Writing Spider (Argiope aurantia)' On Black

 

From: home.att.net/~larvalbugrex/argiope.html

 

Argiope

by Valerie (October 25, 2001)

revised September 23, 2004

 

The largest orb weaver in our gardens is the black and yellow argiope (Argiope aurantia). Actually, only the female is large, the males being much smaller by comparison. Although big enough to deliver a bite, these spiders are not poisonous or aggressive. The black and yellow argiope is also called banana spider, yellow garden spider, zipper spider, golden orb weaver and writing spider. There are a number of other species in the genus Argiope, but most that occur in the U.S. are restricted to tropical climates. A related species inhabits gardens in Europe. Because they make such big webs and are brightly colored, it is impossible for a resident argiope to remain unnoticed in the garden or, as they sometimes look for sheltered areas, on the side of a house. We had one spider who thought the ideal location for her web was right by our front door over the doorbell. She stayed there all summer, enjoying frequent feedings of any large insects we could find to throw into her web.

 

The argiope spiders make excellent photography subjects because they don't react to the camera lens. Part of the reason is probably their rather poor vision, as they do not rely on sight to catch prey, but on the vibrations produced in their webs. Smaller orb weavers, like members of the genus Araneus, which also inhabit our yard, sometimes make webs even bigger than the argiopes, but they are very difficult to photograph. Maybe because they are small and tasty morsels for birds, these spiders do not sit in the middle of their web during the day, but usually hide in a nearby leaf at the base of one of the web support strands. If they happen to be in the middle of the web, my approach with the camera almost always makes them retreat to a safe hiding place. In spite of their large size and the care with which they place their webs, the argiope spiders in our yard are often taken by predators such as birds.

 

An interesting feature of many orb webs is the central white design created by the spider, called a stabilimentum (referring to the idea that it helps stabilize the web). With argiopes, this area is almost round and filled in with many zigzags of silk when the spider is young, but as it grows, the design changes to be more of a single vertical zigzag. Spiders are capable of creating as many as seven different kinds of silk using several different glands that supply the spinnerets. argiope spider hanging under its recently shed exoskeletonThe photo at left shows the underside of an adult female argiope. The spinnerets appear as a group of brown structures forming an irregular shaped disk. The different types of silk have varying amino acid compositions. The silk coming out of the spinnerets can vary from an extremely fine single line, like those used to create the main support lines on their web, to wide ribbons of silk used for subduing prey or making the central design on their web. Spiders can vary the stickiness of the silk as well as it's thickness. The purpose of the central design in many spiders' webs is not completely understood. It could serve several purposes, including a way to conceal the spider from its prey or its predators (which could explain why the patch is more disruptive for small, young spiders than for large ones), a way to keep birds from blundering into the web, or a lure for insects, as the silk reflects ultraviolet light in much the same way as do flower centers. Another spider habit that has never been fully explained is that of hanging upside down in the web. Almost all spiders do this but I've never heard a definitive explanation.

 

In order to grow, spiders must periodically shed their exoskeletons. This is a fascinating process to watch, but one which leaves the spider very vulnerable until its new skin hardens. When the spider is about to shed, the inside layers of its skin are digested. It anchors its legs on part of its web, hanging upside down. The top of the carapace splits open and the spider literally falls out of its old shell. It doesn't fall because it is anchored by a strand of silk from its spinnerets. As soon as the spider is completely free of its old skin, it hangs limp for awhile, then spreads its legs out to let them dry.female argiope spider just before laying eggs In the photograph above at right, the old skin is visible at the top, while the spider hangs below. At this point the spider is expanding its size, and it can even grow a new limb if one was lost before.

 

The females are easy to spot in their webs, but the males (photo at right) tend to be harder to find. When they are young, both the males and females look similar, but the males seem to never grow much, while the females become quite large. The males also do not remain in their original area if there is no female around. Once they mature, they must search out a female with whom to mate. Often, it is possible to find the tiny males living in their small webs just to the side of a female's large web. While both genders of argiopes have the habit of holding their legs in an X pattern, the males seem to make the posture more pronounced, possibly as an aid to their protective camouflage.

 

Just before laying eggs, the female spider is often quite large, her abdomen considerably distended. Argiopes produce large numbers of young in their egg sacs. argiope egg caseAlthough one sac seems to be the norm, we saw one female produce three over a period of a couple of weeks and have heard of a single spider producing four and still going strong. Unlike some spiders, such as the green lynx, who guard their eggs and young, argiopes tend to leave their eggs to their fate. The egg case looks like a miniature Greek wine vessel, with a bulbous shape and a little round neck at the top. The color of the egg case is brown and it is anchored within a framework of silk strands, keeping it away from surrounding vegetation. Although this protects the case from some predators, like ants, other predators and parasites lay their eggs within the cases as well. These tenants include other species of spiders as well as wasps. The young spiders hatch in the fall but overwinter in the egg case. These cases are very well constructed and we've seen them last not only through the winter, but through another year as well, before the weather eventually takes its toll and they are washed away.

 

Like many spiders, argiopes live only one year, expending all their energy into producing eggs (females) or sperm (males). They die once winter arrives.

I showed these shots to my dad and he chose this one as his favorite because he said it had some mystery to it because at first glance, you're not entirely sure what you're looking at. I don't know about all that, but I'll go with it. I'm still holding up Andy's and my departure. Whoops. :)

 

These were taken at the site of the Wells Brothers Foundry (founded in 1832, torn down in 1910) in Milford, Michigan. I found this by chance. I was driving home from work and got stuck behind a long string of cars waiting for somebody to turn left. I looked out the left side of my car (when I am normally looking at the park on the right side of the road) and saw this! I immediately pulled off and jumped out to take pictures. I really like how these turned out.

 

Ok, now this really is a post and run. If I don't finish this up now, I'm going to get into trouble. Everybody have a great evening! I'll catch up on your streams later tonight or tomorrow. :)

Chilodonella cucullulus es el dromedario de los ciliados y no nos muestra su perfil

más agraciado como cuando nadando dibuja el contorno de la huella de nuestro pie. Se ha puesto de lado y camina de puntillas sobre unos restos de vegetales que se deshacen bajo el agua y casi, alardeando de ella, enseña su gran joroba.

 

Como en los dromedarios del desierto, la joroba de Chilodonella está rellena de reservas, no es agua ni son grasas, es cristal y son azúcares, son en definitiva diatomeas que ha ido capturando con su boca de canasta aspiradora. Chilodonella engulle diatomeas sin cesar en una práctica de faquir ansioso, una tras otra, agujas vivas de cuarzo, cuchillos transparentes de doble filo van pasando a su interior y van hinchando esa joroba que se llena de reservas de ensalada de algas de cristal.

 

Pero aquí llega la sorpresa, casi con la misma avidez que las engulle, se va deshaciendo de ellas, expulsándolas por detrás, sembrando nuevamente el agua de joyas vivas. ¿Para qué todo este número? ¿simple exhibición?...sería extraño, en la Naturaleza todo tiene su sentido y una gran economía.

 

En apariencia, las diatomeas que expulsa Chilodonella están vivas, han pasado un tiempo dentro del cuerpo de un gigante. El cofre transparente y cristalino de las diatomeas no está expuesto directamente al agua, sobre él, una fina película de mucílago lo viste y lo protege. Es muy probable que Chilodonella no pueda hacer otra cosa y se tenga que conformar con la golosina azucarada que barniza a estos cofres herméticos y hermosos.

 

El ciliado dromedario y faquir que se muestra aquí, procede de una muestra recogida en el Torrent Albereda Un afluente del río Foix en Barcelona.

 

Gracias a Ángela lo podemos mostrar aquí haciendo esta completa exhibición. La fotografía se ha realizado a 400 aumentos utilizando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

  

Gracias a Santiago Ortiz por incorporar nuestro proyecto a su magnífico Bestiario.

The Riazor - Then and now

 

When Deportivo La Coruña was founded in 1906 they started playing on a field called Corral de la Gaiteira and in the local bull ring. In May 1909 the team moved to the place where the current stadium stands today. It used to be part of the gardens of the Catholic Church School called Las Esclavas (the slaves).

Now this school stands in front of the actual stadium, on the rocks of the beach. The local Government created the new pitch and it was nicknamed the Riazor, after the nearby Riazor Beach. The name stuck but since then the stadium has been remodeled four times:

  

1909: Viejo Riazor (Old Riazor)

Nowadays the stadium built at the Las Esclavas location is called Viejo Riazor. It was inaugurated on 16 May, 1909 with a match between Deportivo and Fortuna de Vigo. Five years later new goals were added together with small terraces. The stadium was also fenced up so people would have to pay to see the match.

In this first Riazor, Deportivo played against the charismatic Uruguayan national team, knocked Real Madrid out of the Copa del Rey and obtained their first promotion to the Primera División. Some important players of Deportivo's history played in this era like Chacho, Ramón González, Juan Acuña and Luis Otero. Deportivo played in this Old Riazor until 1944.

 

1944: Riazor

In 1944 the largest football stadium in the history of the Galician region was built. This Riazor had a capacity of 40,000 to 45,000 spectators.

The first match in the new stadium was played on 29 October, 1944 and priest Ricardo Domí­nguez Dopazo blessed the place in the morning. The Mayor back then was Vázquez-Peña and the president of Deportivo at that time was Ruenes. Some supporters thought the new stadium contained a mistake as the terraces were very far away from the pitch and there was a rumour that the pitch was possessed by the devil. That year Deportivo went down to the Segunda División...

The stadium had cost 5 million pesetas to construct. The promoter of it was former Mayor José Pérez, materializing the ideas of Ramon del Llano. The design of the stadium and the project's sheets were made by municipal architect Santiago Rey Pedreira and Angel Llopiz. The stadium covered an area of 39.325 m2 and the pitch 7.770 m2 (105x74 meters) was one of the biggest in Spain.

Behind the stadium, over the standing Fondo terrace, a great tower of 45 meters was built. Next to it some training pitches, popularly called picadero were constructed. The front of it was surrounded by arches and columns. There was also a training pitch (80x65 meters), demolished in 1968 to make way for the Municipal Pavilion of Sports.

The official capacity of the stadium back then was 37,000. However in some matches there were sold about 60,000 tickets! The biggest terrace was the one in front of the covered stands. This one wasn't covered and was called Preferencia.

The inauguration match in 1944 was played against Valencia and it was dedicated to Virgilio López Rincón, the only survivor from the first team of the 1906 Deportivo. The first eleven Deportivo players that played that day were: Acuña, Portugués, Guimerans, Bienzobas, Lezama, Caballero, Molaza, Marquinez, Pedrito and Paquirri. Deportivo lost 2-3 and the first goal of the history in the stadium was scored by Valencia player Hernández in front of 18,000 spectators.

After 1944, a few great Deportivo players performed in this stadium like Luis Suárez, Amancio and Veloso. The only final of the Copa del Rey played in the city was in this stadium as in 1947 as Real Madrid beat Espanyol 2-0 in front of 30,000 spectators. In the same year the first edition of the Trofeo Teresa Herrera was celebrated, which was won by Athletic de Bilbao as they beat Brazilian Vasco de Gama 3-2.

1982: remodelling for World Cup tournament

At the start of the 1980s the stadium was remodelled again due to the World Cup taking place in Spain in 1982. The organization wanted to change it radically: a reduction of capacity but an increase of comfort. Instead of cemented seats, they wanted to install plastic seats with a back. The remodelled Riazor was inaugurated with the World Cup being played in June 1982. It was officially inaugurated on 15 June, 1982 with the match Peru - Cameroon that ended 0-0.

So, this remodelling became a total renovation. They had to demolish the great terrace of the Preferencia Superior because it was built with poor material. They only conserved parts from the Old Riazor like the big Marathon tower and some walls. The stadium became more comfort but actually got worse: the losing of 10,000 seats didn't make sense.

This time the remodelling was promoted by Angel Ron, La Coruña's delegate of the World Cup. The total inversion was 501.469.000 pesetas, of which 402.239.000 (80%) came from the City Hall and only 99.230.000 (20%) from the World Cup organization. Those years the relationship between the City Government and the club were very good.

In 1983, Mayor Francisco Vázquez and Deportivo president Corzo Sierra signed a deal that allowed Deportivo to use the stadium whenever they wanted. This pact will stand for 50 years, until 2033, with the only annual cost for Deportivo being a symbolic 1 peseta. This contract is very important for Deportivo because it guarantees the club a place to call 'home' in the city for the next 50 years. It also links the club with the local Government, so as to preserve good relations.

The great remodelling and the contract were the first lines of a new chapter in the stadium's history. Riazor had to be prepared for the year 2000, especially the changing and press room. After this, it needed some important changes in the terraces concerning the telecommunications aspect. They also had to demolish some athletic runways - the best in Spain at that time - leaving behind only six of them. The first Deportivo player scoring in the new stadium was Jose Luis against Alavés.

  

1990s: final improvements

  

As indicated, that the stadium had lost some of its initial capacity during the remodelling process. But the excellent results of the team in the 1990s in both domestic and European competitions made it being too small and in need for new changes.

 

In 1995 the idea to close the stadium and to construct a new terrace behind the Sports Pavilion was considered. In this case it would an "U" shape. The new project included a big red top to cover the whole stadium and the local government would pay for it.

In the end the athletic runways were completely suppressed and this led to a big polemic because those were the only runways in the city. Most part of Riazor got covered with plastic seats and the marathon terrace was also modified, bringing it closer to the pitch. The metallic fences were kept intact, although they were very uncomfortable when watching the match from the 10 first rows. The big nets behind both goals were also not very popular, but they remained unchanged.

The stadium capacity was increased to 34,600 places, all seated. The current Riazor was inaugurated in February, 1998 with the match between Deportivo and Real Madrid (2-2). Some radical spectators were unhappy about the plastic seats, as they didn't want to sit down. Around 100 seats were stolen or thrown on the pitch during that match and 84 more against Alavés three days later. The official inauguration took place during the summer of 1998, with a match for the Teresa Herrera tournament starring Real Madrid and Lazio Roma. The first goal was scored by Morientes and the match was dedicated to Deportivo ex-players Rodrigo Vizoso, Acuña and Pedrito, members of the Deportivo squad that played the inaugural match after the 1944 remodelling.

After these stadium improvements, some more slight remodellings have been made. A new system for TV transmissions, the UCO, was installed. And in 2000, just before Deportivo's first Champions League match, some of the other sections, like the press room, were also improved. In the summer of 2001, the new VIP terraces were built and they are among the best in Europe as there is an exterior section with deluxe seats and the interior has TV's, Mini bar, etc. The VIP terraces have individual exits to the stadium and an independent luxury shop. In the summer of 2002, two big TFT displays were added to the stadium (10x10 meters), right above the goals. Replays and music videos can now be played.

It's such a special feeling ... to be in the right place at the very right time ... when you can try only once ...

The whole situation was like from paradise... Mala Strana hill is now packed with cherry blossom trees, creating extra terrestrial atmosphere! Between them you can see all the beauty of Prague, whole panorama!

I was cruising around the place when spotted that little princes! She had insane costume! Whole pink like the flowers on the surrounded trees. I felt I saw an angel.

 

so Mr. Flickr! Is it worth to be on Explore?

Damn it is !!

Amigos/as:

 

La campaña contra el ingreso en prisión y la criminalización de los manteros atraviesa un momento crítico. Por eso, de forma urgente hemos elaborado este manifiesto en el que se os informa de la situación y se os invita a suscribirlo en concepto de asociación/colectivo social. Os quedaríamos muy agradecidos si le pudierais dar la máxima difusión. La urgencia es máxima, pues el próximo lunes entregaremos el manifiesto con las firmas que hasta entonces hayamos recogido.

 

Si deseáis adheriros podéis mandad un correo a manteros@inmigrapenal.com indicando el nombre del colectivo y los datos de quien realiza la adhesión.

 

Muchísimas gracias por vuestra ayuda.

  

Las asociaciones y colectivos del tejido social abajo firmantes queremos poner de manifiesto a la opinión pública:

 

I.- Hace unos meses constatábamos con perplejidad que más de medio millar de personas han sido encarceladas en el Estado por la mera circunstancia de exhibir y vender CD pirata. Detectamos entonces penas sorprendentes de prisión de hasta dos años y más: había “manteros” que veían prolongada su permanencia en prisión por no poder hacer frente a las magras responsabilidades civiles a las que se les condenaba y a las multas que se les imponían.

 

II.- De la mano de artistas, profesionales del Derecho, movimientos sociales y de los propios afectados iniciamos una Campaña con el objeto de eliminar del Código Penal la prisión para un tipo de comportamiento concreto movido por la necesidad de supervivencia que tiene mejor acomodo en el derecho administrativo sancionador. No se trata de legalizar el top-manta sino de perseguirlo por otros medios que no sean el encarcelamiento.

 

III.- Al mismo tiempo que apoyábamos indultos para las personas presas por esta causa y abonábamos multas y responsabilidades civiles para lograr la pronta excarcelación de los que peor lo pasaban, conectamos con los diferentes grupos parlamentarios y les hicimos partícipes de nuestro intento de proponer la modificación del Código Penal que avalamos con dictámenes jurídicos que fueron respaldados por numerosos profesores universitarios, juristas y ciudadanos en general.

 

IV.- El top manta no es la infracción que más gravemente perjudica al derecho de propiedad intelectual de los artistas; las mayores agresiones vienen de otros campos. Por otro lado, el propio legislador reconoce en el Preámbulo de la Ley que la reforma del año 2003 supuso una quiebra de la proporcionalidad respecto a la venta a pequeña escala y que los autores son personas en situación de necesidad y de pobreza, que sólo aspiran a alcanzar mínimos ingresos de subsistencia; se trata de personas que tienen prohibido legalmente ganarse la vida con un contrato legal que tratan de sobrevivir con los escasos ingresos de una actividad, ilegal, sí, pero de escaso daño social.

 

V.- Reconocemos que la mayoría de los grupos parlamentarios del Congreso han escuchado nuestras razones y que, aunque el texto aprobado por el Congreso no garantiza que por conductas tan nimias como la del “mantero” se meta en prisión a un ciudadano, dicha redacción supone una mejora respecto a la situación actual. Sin embargo, existe el peligro cierto de que estos avances se pierdan en el Senado. A consecuencia de la presión de las Sociedades Gestoras de los Derechos de Autor, Convergencia i Unio y el Grupo Parlamentario Popular han introducido una enmienda en el Senado de características represivas que supondría un gran retroceso. Se argumenta que tratar como falta los supuestos más nimios (cuando el beneficio no excede de 400 euros) constituye “un absoluto desarme procesal y policial”. Esta afirmación, inspirada sin duda por los intereses de las empresas de gestión de derechos de autor y de la propiedad industrial, además de mostrar una cruel insensibilidad acerca de la situación de extremada precariedad de las personas que practican el top-manta, es rotundamente falsa. En efecto, en la redacción emanada del Congreso sigue existiendo protección penal plena para la propiedad intelectual e industrial; la consideración de falta de algunos supuestos (por debajo de 400 euros) no constituye un desarme penal ni procesal, ni mucho menos policial, pues hay todo un Libro del Código Penal dedicado a las faltas que está siendo aplicado. Incluso en el supuesto que seguimos defendiendo, de que no se considerasen ilícito penal los supuestos con beneficio por debajo de los 400 euros, la diligencia persecutoria policial se seguiría desplegando en el ámbito administrativo sancionador, como podemos comprobar los ciudadanos en otros ámbitos (por ejemplo, las infracciones a las normas de circulación). Por eso, nos parece un despropósito derrochar recursos del sistema penal y policial en perseguir estas conductas para sobreproteger intereses de poderosos grupos de presión.

 

VI.- Por consiguiente, urgimos a los Sres. y Sras. Senadores/as para que no se dejen presionar por los intereses de empresas de gestión que perfectamente pueden hacer valer sus derechos de un modo más justo, proporcionado y, desde luego, generando menos sufrimiento estéril, asumiendo la reforma aprobada por el Congreso de los Diputados o, mejor aún, aprobando la efectiva desincriminación de las conductas más irrelevantes pues su despenalización no significa su legalización, ni que dichas conductas se vayan a incrementar, pues el simple comiso de sus pobres mercancías supone una gravísima consecuencia para estas personas, además de la posibilidad de ser detenido y expulsado por carecer de residencia legal. No es tanto lo que les pedimos: el Derecho penal de un Estado social no debería utilizarse para criminalizar la pobreza de una forma tan injusta como evidente.

If you peek through the trees, you can see where rice is drying on the blue tarp.

自從大二從老爸那裡接收第一台底片單眼時,

我就離不開拍照了。

 

對我來說,

拍照迷人的地方在於

底片幫我們把所有快樂/ 悲傷/模糊的時刻都保存下來了

照片永遠不會說謊。

  

於是

我最近開始思考著

我好想被什麼人需要

被那些喜歡我照片的人

被那些理解我眼中所見美好的人的需要著

 

我好想好想幫需要我的人拍出美麗的照片,

被心事困擾的眼神/淺色髮絲間的逆光/被微風吹動裙擺飄起的瞬間

 

我一直在思考著我能夠做些什麼事情,

讓這個世界的某個微小片段變得更美好。

 

我不是革命家/儘管我反核 我卻找不到阻止核電繼續運轉的辦法

我不會彈吉他/我無法像黃玠可以寫出一首美好的歌,

在這混亂的世界中帶給人們一絲希望與光

我還不是一位詩人 / 儘管我非常嚮往, 但我還無法寫出一首簡潔有力但震撼人心的美好詩句

 

但我喜歡拍照/我可以拍照

假如我的照片可以把某些人某些美好的時刻完整的保存下來

 

那是不是也是可以把心中的烏托邦傳遞給這個世界呢?

「和平與愛」「All we need is love.」

 

我只想藉由照片傳遞這個,

如此而已。

 

假如真的有需要我的人

其實我也同樣需要著你們

Het Bardo museum was vroeger een Moors paleis dat dienst deed als residentie voor de Tunesische beys. Het museum is huidig de bewaarplaats van de Tunesische archeologische schatten. De Romeinse mozaïeken van het museum zijn de belangrijkste in de wereld.

 

De eerste vorm van mozaïek, of mooi betegelde vloer, komt van de Feniciërs. Bij opgravingen in Carthago en Kerkouane werden vloeren met eenvoudige patronen, in wit mozaïek of uit fijngemalen terracotta met stukjes gekleurd marmer en glas, blootgelegd. De figuratieve mozaïeks uit het Bardo museum dateren van de 2de eeuw na C. en later en zijn gemaakt door Griekse handwerklieden. Ze versierden vaak openbare gebouwen, amfitheaters en badhuizen met mythologische thema's. Vanaf de 3de eeuw na C. werden ook de vloeren van particuliere huizen bekleed met taferelen uit de jacht, het toneel, de landbouw en de zee. Later ook met Christelijke taferelen. De mozaïekkunst kende nog een laatste heropleving in de 6de eeuw na C. door de Byzantijnen.

 

The Bardo National Museum (Le Musee National du Bardo) is a marvelous museum in Tunis, the capital of Tunisia. The museum has the world's largest collection of Roman mosaics, and is ranked alongside the Egyptian Museum in Cairo as the best museum in north Africa.

 

The idea to place a museum inside the 14th century Hafside Little Palace was taken in 1882, and six years later the museum opened its doors to the public. It tours Tunisian history, paying particular attention to the Punic, Roman, Christian and Arab periods.

 

The museum does not only focus on those eras, though. There is a substantial prehistoric collection, showing the area as it was before Roman and Punic intervention. However it is the Roman mosaics, most of which date back to between the 2nd and 3rd centuries BC, which are the museum's most awe-inspiring sights. Particular points of interest are The Triumph of Neptune, Virgil and the floor mosaics of the Sousse room. The labyrinthine hallways and rooms of the museum ensure its visitors will become lost in all of the precious artifacts, which also include a renowned mausoleum room.

BMW 3 Series (E90)

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

"The BMW 3 Series (E90/E91/E92/E93) is the fifth generation compact executive car of the BMW 3 Series, which was produced from 2004 to 2013. The body styles of the range are:

 

. 4-door Sedan/Saloon (E90 Model Code)

. Estate/Wagon (E91 Model Code, marketed as "Touring")

. Coupé (E92 Model Code)

. Cabriolet (E93 Model Code)

 

Due to the separate model codes for each body style, the term "E9X" is sometimes used to describe this generation of the 3 Series.

 

The E90/E91 sedans and wagons began to be phased out following the introduction of their F30/F31 successors in 2012. However, the E92/E93 coupes and cabriolets remained in production until 2013, when they were replaced by the F32/F33 models.

 

The E92 335i coupe, introduced in 2006, was the first 3 Series model to be sold with a turbocharged petrol engine. The E9X family also saw the introduction of run-flat tyres to the 3 Series range. Consequently, cars with run-flats are not equipped with a spare tyre.

 

The E90/E92/E93 M3 is the only generation of M3 to be powered by a V8 engine. Released in 2007,[8] it uses BMW's S65 engine and was produced in sedan, coupe and cabriolet body styles."

(...)

 

Sedan (E90)

 

"The sedan model was the first model sold of the 5th generation BMW 3 series, being launched on March 5, 2005 (as a 2006 model year) with the 318i, 320i, 320si, 323i, 325i, 325xi, 330i, and 330xi models.

In later years, the following sedan models were added: 316i, 320d, 325d, 328i, 330d, 335i, 335xi, 335d and M3.

(...)

 

This would be the last 3 Series to offer a naturally aspirated engine with the N52B30 (used in the 328i) and the S65B40 (used in the M3)."

BMW 3 Series

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

"The BMW 3 Series is a compact executive car manufactured by the German automaker BMW since May 1975.

It is the successor to the 02 Series and has been produced in six different generations.

 

The first generation of the 3 Series was only available as a 2-door sedan, however the model range has since expanded to include a 4-door sedan, 2-door convertible, 2-door coupé, 5-door station wagon, 5-door hatchback (Gran Turismo) and 3-door hatchback body styles.

Since 2013, the coupé and convertible models have been marketed as the 4 Series, therefore the 3 Series range no longer includes these body styles.

 

The 3 Series is BMW's best-selling model, accounting for around 30% of the BMW brand's annual total sales (excluding motorbikes). The BMW 3 Series has won numerous awards throughout its history.

 

The M version of the 3 series, M3, debuted with the E30 M3 in 1986."

(...)

 

- First generation (E21; 1975–1983)

 

- Second generation (E30; 1982–1994)

 

- Third generation (E36; 1990–2000)

 

- Fourth generation (E46; 1998–2006)

 

- Fifth generation (E90/E91/E92/E93; 2004–2013)

 

"The fifth generation 3 Series was produced in the sedan, wagon, coupé and cabriolet body styles. Due to the separate model codes for each body style, the term "E9X" is sometimes used to describe this generation of the 3 Series.

 

In 2006, the 335i became the first 3 Series model to be sold with a turbocharged petrol engine. The E90 also saw the introduction of run-flat tires to the 3 Series range. Consequently, cars with run-flats are not equipped with a spare tire.

 

The E90/E92/E93 M3 was powered by the BMW S65 v8 engine. It was released in 2007 and was produced in sedan, coupe and cabriolet body styles."

Tragedy at Six Bells

By David John Withers, Brynmawr

 

My father worked in the colliery all his life and I sort of followed him into the pit. I went to work in Six Bells Colliery at 17 years of age.

 

When I first went on the 0.18 coal face as a collier's helper I was introduced to my 'batty' Reggie Poe who showed me the tools we were using and two chalk marks 15 yards apart on the coal face. This was our working place, 15 yards long by 4-foot-6 deep by 5 feet high. I thought 'bloody hell' - it seemed a huge amount of coal to shift.

 

Although the other coal faces in our district were more modern with hydraulic roof supports, we were still using the older friction posts and linked bars. I've still got the scars where one of the bars came down on me!

 

We had quite a few problems with gas on the 0.18 coal face and the dust was killing. At times the conveyor would start up and you couldn't see each other until the dust settled down.

 

As boys we often refused to go onto the face because of the amounts of dust there - being youngsters we stuck together even when the officials threatened to send us home. It wasn't much of a threat as I was only earning about £6 odd!

 

I had been working about two years when the explosion happened. I was working on the 0.18 face at Six Bells on the 'turning shift' and arrived at the colliery on the bus to see the place in turmoil and heard that an explosion had happened. As the explosion had occurred at our place of work, we offered to go down and help as we knew the place, but the Rescue Brigade had it under control and wouldn't let us go down.

 

It's hard to say my feelings about it all. We knew there was gas there and they said a spark had set it off. I had mostly enjoyed the colliery up to then. I remember four of the men who died - I used to give them snuff with powdered bark mixed in as a joke - there was a good spirit amongst the men at the pit.

 

Once the explosion had happened it put me off. I finished and I put my notice in soon after. I was too young to lose my life in the colliery. If I had been working the day shift that week it would have been me. The explosion opened my eyes to the dangers and I went into the construction industry instead - I was always good with my hands. The pit made me grow up.

         

The deaths of 45 men killed 50 years ago in a colliery explosion have been remembered with a service at the site.

 

A gas explosion ripped through the Six Bells colliery near Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent at 10.45am on 28 June 1960.

 

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, led a service of remembrance at the site.

 

He also unveiled a memorial to the tragedy, a 20m high sculpture of a miner by Sebastian Boyesen.
