Seine Forschung und Lehre bezieht sich auf jüdische Lebenswelten in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart. In diesem allgemeinen Horizont steht die Shoah als ein herausgehobener, aber nicht als einziger Schwerpunkt seiner Interessen. Die jeweiligen Forschungsfelder – darunter insbesondere die Medizin - werden anhand von biografischen Nahaufnahmen erschlossen und in die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Kontexte eingeordnet. Als einen wichtigen Aspekt seiner Arbeit versteht er die anschauliche Vermittlung von wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen für ein größeres Publikum, sei es durch Vorträge, sei es durch Publikationen.
His research and teaching relates to Jewish life in the past and present. Within this general horizon, the Shoah is a prominent, but not the only, focus of his interests. The respective fields of research - including medicine in particular - are analysed on the basis of biographical close-ups and placed in their political and social contexts. An important aspect of his work is the vivid communication of scientific findings to a wider audience, be it through lectures or publications.
Ses recherches et son enseignement portent sur les mondes juifs d'hier et d'aujourd'hui. Dans cet horizon général, la Shoah constitue un centre d'intérêt particulier, mais pas unique. Les champs de recherche respectifs - dont notamment la médecine - sont abordés à l'aide de gros plans biographiques et replacés dans les contextes politiques et sociaux. Il considère comme un aspect important de son travail la transmission claire des connaissances scientifiques à un public plus large, que ce soit par des conférences ou des publications.

I picked up the Lensbaby Fisheye Optic at Imaging USA this year. Initially I thought I would have pretty limited reasons to use it. I might pull it out for the occasional odd portrait or something but a true 180° fisheye is most often used in rap videos and at skate parks, neither of which do I often photography.
But, I am finding it a lot more useful than I originally imagined. Human vision is a funny thing. We are aware, via peripheral vision, of almost 180° of the world but we only have good focus on about 10° of out vision. Our eyes and brain see a lot but we only focus on a small sliver of that. As distorted and odd as these round images look, there is something familiar to them just because they do show the world as we see it… sort of. On a full-frame sensor camera, like the Canon 5D MKII, a 12mm fisheye like this Lensbaby optic produces a round image and much of the sensor never sees any light. The view is so wide that you have to be careful that you don’t get your feet, camera strap or elbow in the shot.
In spite of all the distortion that the lens gives, it provides a very deep depth of field even when focused very close and shot at f/4 like (the aperture I used on these shots).
There are a few drawbacks to the Lensbaby fisheye when you use it in their Composer rig. First, you have to be very careful that the image is centered properly or you end up with some of the elegant sphere getting cut off. It is also manual focus and because everything looks so small through the viewfinder, you really have to shift to Live View and digitally zoom in to focus properly. This is not a big deal if you have a little time to compose your shot but tends to preclude and “on the fly shooting.”
Anyway, it’s a fun addition to the arsenal of obscure lenses that I seem to love and fawn over. It is also a good bit cheaper than the Canon EF 8-1fmm lens f/4 L USM (which will set you back $1,400 and only stops down to f/4 while the lens baby goes to f/2). I am sure that the Auto Focus of the Canon would take a lot of the leg-work out of using an extreme fisheye and that the optics are cleaner, but I have heard reports that the clarity, when stopped down and used properly are not worth the price difference.
But, enough camera geek talk. I hope you enjoy this somewhat unusual view of Louisiana and Mississippi during the winter that I photographed yesterday on my ride back from Lake Bruin. I’m looking forward to putting this lens to more remunerative use on my next portrait assignment. All in all, highly recommended.
Check out more at my blog, for lots of photos, recipes, tech talk, travel writing and other ramblings. I appreciate any feedback but, please do not post graphic awards or invitations in the comments, I'm just not crazy about them.

Allocated G18-149 to Bristol Aeroplane Company 22 Dec 1953 and was allotted to the Royal Pakistan Air Force as S4404 on 22 Dec 1953. Delivered to Royal Pakistan Air Force during 1954.
S4404 was sold abroad 24 Aug 65 to SAFE and registered as ZK-CLT ‘Merchant Hauler’ on 1 Jun 1965. Delivered to Auckland 24 Aug 1965 and entered service 17 Dec 1965 named 'Merchant Hauler'.
Ownership was transferred to Safe Air Ltd. 31 Oct 1967.
ZK-CLT was one of the Freighters that were fitted out for the passenger capsule flights to Chatham Islands, retaining its fuselage windows for that purpose.
SAFE Air Bristol Freighter ZK-CAM was landing at Woodbourne on 14 Jan 1981 when the right undercarriage collapsed at end of landing roll due to fatigue in the structure. The aircraft was not repaired following this incident and the registration was cancelled on 14 May 1981. The rear fuselage was employed in a rebuild of ZK-CLT. rnzaf.proboards.com/thread/11951?page=2
Withdrawn from service 23 Sep 1986 with 19,022 hours and 18,720 landings.
It was then passed on to the RNZAF Museum and flown to Wigram bearing the unofficial serial NZ5913 on 21 May 1987. The engines were exchanged with the Museum's NZ5903. The proposed swap for a Bolingbroke project did not eventuate and NZ5913 was then flown back to Woodbourne on 25 Jun 1988 for an overhaul at SafeAir prior to being placed back on the civil register as ZK-CLT on 25 Jul 1988.
ZK-CLT was sold to Trans Provincial Airlines Ltd, Prince Rupert, BC, Canada on 25 Jul 1988. It left Auckland for Canada on 7 Oct 1989 and the registration was cancelled (for the second time) 12 Jan 1990. On arrival in Canada the Freighter became C-FTPA with Trans Provincial Airlines from 6 Jul 1990, ownership moving to MRS 4000 Investments Ltd., Vancouver, BC 21 Apr 1994 and Hawkair Aviation Services Ltd., Terrace, BC 1 Aug 1994.
C-FTPA crashed at Bronson Creek 24 Apr 1997, when the starboard undercarriage failed on landing ground looped on landing and the aircraft ran off runway into ditch.
Stripped of useable parts and hulk of fuselage left at Bronson Creek.

Notes: Marty and I played hooky yesterday. The forecast was for sun and 66 degrees (f). For January, that's a pretty rare treat for us. So we packed up our gear and headed to the beach. Or "down the shore" as we like to say in New Jersey. The temps by the ocean were not to meet the expected 60+ temps but nonetheless, it was a spectacular day out. We didn't see a lot of different or new species, sans this one.
Horned Larks have probably been there many times before, but, thanks to a guy we met out on the jetty (Thanks, Todd!) we were pointed in the right direction. I scooted on my rear end, propping my lens on my knees (with bean bag) a good 30 feet to get this shot. High sun and white sand, make for challenging shooting. I chose this image to share because the horns are so predominantly displayed.
About 3/4 the way through the day of shooting I realized I was shooting in JPG mode. Gulp. But alas, as it turned out, no harm done. It ended up making the post work, well... a breeze if you want to know the truth. Can I pull as much out of shadows, etc? No... but for a day out having fun... who cares? I think I may opt to let my camera do the heavy work next time too.
Macao
Guia Lighthouse
Guia Fortress, Lighthouse and Chapel: Built on the top of the highest hill in Macau peninsula (which has a walking trail with gymnastics infrastructures) is the Guia Fortress, erected in 1637 inside which is a lighthouse (1865), the first to be built in the China coast. Besides the lighthouse there is a Chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Guia, decorated with beautiful frescoes recently restored. From the fortress the visitor can visit the whole city and the Pearl River. It is an extremely calm spot ideal for photos, with a coffee shop selling soft drinks and coffee. Moreover it is here that the typhoon signals are hoisted in order to inform the population that the tropical storm is approaching.
The Guia Complex, which includes a historical military fort, chapel and lighthouse, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.The fort and chapel were constructed between 1622 and 1638. The lighthouse was constructed between 1864 and 1865, the first western style lighthouse in east Asia or on the China coast.
In October 2006, the Macau Government announced a gigantic construction project which includes a new home for Beijing’s Liaison Office. With such construction plan, Macau’s signature lighthouse will be hidden from large portions of the city, and, perhaps the harbour.
The project at the foot of Macau’s Guia Hill comprises a 135 metre tall tower, a 99.12 metre tower, with other tall buildings in a line spanning some 300 metres, while the Guia Hill is only 91 metres in height.
The height of Beijing’s Liaison Office (99.12 metres) is designed to commemorate December 1999, the year of Macau’s return to Chinese sovereignty. The building is already under construction and will be complete next December to commemorate the eighth anniversary of Macau’s handover.
The Association for the Protection of Macau’s Historical and Cultural Heritage warned the Macau government that if the high-rise buildings turned out to block the view of the Guia Lighthouse, it would upset the feelings of many residents.
Earlier in 2006, the Macau government uplifted two decrees that stipulated maximum construction heights in that area. The Land, Public Works and Transportation Office said the revocation stemmed from “the need to modernize the legislation, already 15 years old and completely outdated, out of touch with the gambling sector development and the increasing need for building sites”. Since 2006 summer, there have been a few heritage disputes in Macau. Activists have been fighting against a building plan that threatened to block the sea view from the A-Ma Temple, a World Heritage site honoring the goddess of seafarers and protesting against a government plan to demolish the Little Blue House - a historic mansion that isn’t on the World Heritage list.
According to the Macau Post Daily (January 10, 2007), heritage management expert, Mr. Imon, stressed that the UNESCO in Paris has a so-called World Heritage in Danger List that comprises properties deemed by the organization to be in peril because of adverse developments in their surroundings. In case of a world-heritage property’s inclusion in the danger list, the UNESCO may issue a warning in order to urge the respective country [China in the case of Macau] to stop the damage and to remedy the situation.

Well, I finally made it back to Richmond Park yesterday, it's only taken me FIVE YEARS!!! Not been there since 2009!!! and I nearly didn't go yesterday either, because of initial bad weather and engineering works on the railway...it was a Sunday I guess, that's power for the course!!!
Anyhoo, I was rewarded with my FIRST ever Fallow deer Rut, which was pretty intense for 5 minutes!!
Hope everybody had a great Weekend..:)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~ This article is about the deer genus. For other uses, see Dama (disambiguation).
Description ~ The male fallow deer is known as a buck, the female is a doe, and the young a fawn. Adult bucks are 140–160 cm (55–63 in) long with a 85–95 cm (33–37 in) shoulder height, and typically 60–100 kg (130–220 lb) in weight; does are 130–150 cm (51–59 in) long with a 75–85 cm (30–33 in) shoulder height, and 30–50 kg (66–110 lb) in weight. The largest bucks may measure 190 cm (75 in) long and weigh 150 kg (330 lb). Fawns are born in spring at about 30 cm (12 in) and weigh around 4.5 kg (9.9 lb). The life span is around 12–16 years.
The species has great variations in the colour of their coats, with four main variants, "common", "menil", melanistic and leucistic – a genuine colour variety, not albinistic. The white is the lightest coloured, almost white; common and menil are darker, and melanistic is very dark, sometimes even black (easily confused with the sika deer).
Common: Chestnut coat with white mottles that are most pronounced in summer with a much darker, unspotted coat in the winter. Light-coloured area around the tail, edged with black. Tail is light with a black stripe.
Menil: Spots more distinct than common in summer and no black around the rump patch or on the tail. In winter, spots still clear on a darker brown coat.
Melanistic (black): All year black shading to greyish-brown. No light-coloured tail patch or spots.
Leucistic (white, but not albino): Fawns cream-coloured, adults become pure white, especially in winter. Dark eyes and nose, no spots.
Most herds consist of the common coat variation, yet it is not rare to see animals of the menil coat variation. The Melanistic variation is rarer and white very much rarer still.
Only bucks have antlers, which are broad and shovel-shaped (palmate) from three years. In the first two years the antler is a single spike. They are gazing animals; their preferred habitat is mixed woodland and open grassland. During the rut bucks will spread out and females move between them, at this time of year fallow deer are relatively ungrouped compared to the rest of the year when they try to stay together in groups of up to 150.
Agile and fast in case of danger, fallow deer can run up to a maximum speed of 30 mph (48 km/h) over short distances (being naturally less muscular than other cervids such as roe deer, they are not as fast). Fallow deer can also make jumps up to 1.75 metres high and up to 5 metres in length.
Decided to take a ride to the weekly gtg since I haven't been there in a while. There was a pretty decent turnout and I wanted to take some photos but it was extremely windy and I didn't have a sturdy tripod with me so I ended up snapping some handheld high ISO shots with my 90mm f/2.8 lens (I should've used one of my 1.8 lenses but I really felt like using the longer focal length). This shot came out pretty good and then I decided to get a little creative in Lightroom, I used a preset titled "blau hintergrund 2" as a starting point and made some adjustments til I was happy. This is a Dan's beautiful .:R32 and his gf Ashley's mk4 GTI is in the background.

Los asfodelos o gamones (Asphodelus spp.) son un género de plantas vivaces herbáceas, bianuales o perennes, oriundas del sur y centro de Europa; se han difundido hoy por todo el mundo como plantas ornamentales, gracias a sus grandes flores y la facilidad de su cultivo, requiriendo pocos nutrientes, escasa humedad y mucha luz. Son bulbosas, y varias especies producen tubérculos.
En la antigua Grecia, los asfodelos se colocaban en la tumba de los muertos y se empleaban en las ceremonias fúnebres, en la creencia de que facilitaban el tránsito de los difuntos a los Campos Elíseos, que se creía tapizado de éstos.
The asfodelos or gamones (Asphodelus spp.) Is a genus of herbaceous perennial, biennial or perennial, born in the south and centre of Europe, have spread throughout the world today as ornamental plants, thanks to their large blooms and ease of cultivation, requiring low in nutrients, low humidity and plenty of light. They bulbosas, and several species produce tubers.
In ancient Greece, asfodelos placed in the tomb of the dead and were used in funeral ceremonies in the belief that facilitated the transit of the deceased to the Champs Elysees, believed to trim them.

Inspirada na figura da MEDUSA, que é uma das três Górgonas, divindades da mitologia grega, filhas das divindades marinhas Fórcis e Ceto e irmãs das velhas Gréias. Ao contrário de suas irmãs Górgonas, Esteno e Euríale, Medusa era mortal [1].Medusa era portadora de extrema beleza juntamente com suas duas irmãs. Quando estava sentada num campo cercada de flores de Primavera, o deus do Oceano, Poseídon, une-se a ela que gere dois únicos filhos, mas estes só nascem no momento da morte de Medusa. As vidas das três irmãs, vidas debochadas e dissolutas, aborrecia os demais deuses, principalmente a deusa Afrodite. Para castigá-las, Afrodite as transformou em monstros com serpentes em vez dos seus belos cabelos, presas pontiagudas, mãos de bronze, asas de ouro, e seu olhar petrificava quem olhasse diretamente em seus olhos. Temidas pelos homens e pelos deuses, as três habitavam o extremo Ocidente, junto ao país das Hespérides e vizinhas de Nix (a deusa da Noite). A Morte de Medusa [1]. Perseu foi encarregado pelo rei de Sérifo, Polidete, de decepar e lhe dar de presente a cabeça da Medusa para, em sua vez, Polidectes oferecer como prenda a Énomao, rei de Pisa, com fim de desposar a sua filha Hipodâmia. Para isso, o herói Perseu encontrou-se com umas certas ninfas africanas que gentilmente lhe ofereceram objetos mágicos para o ajudarem no combate a Medusa, tais como: um alforge, um par de sandálias aladas, que lhe permitiam elevar-se como uma pena e escapar velozmente dos monstros, um escudo de bronze bem polido cujo reflexo neutralizava o olhar petrificante das irmãs de Medusa e um capacete que, uma vez colocado, o convertia numa figura invisível, possibilitando-o de se aproximar de Medusa sem este ser descoberto. Quando Perseu a decapitou usando uma foice com uma rigidez de diamante e bem afiada, uma oferta do deus Hermes, as grandes figuras mitológicas Pégasso (o cavalo alado) e Crisaor, com a sua espada dourada, nasceram do pescoço de Medusa. Perseu recolheu a cabeça decapitada de Medusa e colocou-a no alforge que as ninfas lhe tinham entregue para manter a cabeça bem tapada de todos os olhares, pois Medusa, mesmo depois de morta, seria ainda capaz de petrificar quem a fitasse nos olhos tal era a dimensão do seu poder. Durante a aventura de Perseu, na missão de entregar a cabeça de Medusa ao rei, teve a oportunidade de fazer da cabeça uma poderosa arma de defesa e transformar em pedra Atlas, o gigante titã, e a inteira corte de Polidectes. Com o rei então convertido a uma estátua de pedra, a cabeça de Medusa foi dedicada à deusa Atena que, por fim, colocou-a no seu escudo como adorno e símbolo apotrópico, que era uma arte comummente usada para afastar tudo o que seria malévolo.

If you are younger than thirty, I may need to explain that a typewriter was a machine used to produce documents on paper. It became 'obsolescent' when it was succeeded by stand alone word processors and computers with printers which currently serve the same purpose ;-) LOL!
Harmony is an unincorporated town located in San Luis Obispo County, California. It lies north of Cayucos and south of Cambria on SR 1, near the junction with SR 46.
The town of Harmony began as a dairy settlement in the late 19th century started by Swiss immigrants living near the Italian border.
Harmony was founded in 1869 around several dairy ranches and a creamery. The operation changed hands repeatedly because of rivalries that led to a killing. In 1907, owners and ranchers agreed to call off their feud and called the town by its present name as a symbol of their truce.
The Harmony Valley Dairy Co-op was founded in 1901, and the town grew, soon hosting a dairy management office, dormitories for employees, a livery stable, blacksmith and later a gas station. Shortly, a school was built and a feed store and post office gave Harmony official status as a community. At its peak, the creamery employed 10 workers, producing high quality dairy products, including butter and cheese that gave Harmony name recognition statewide. The creamery purified butter by cooking it in the traditional Swiss way, clarifying and giving it a golden color; old-world dairymen claimed butter produced by this method never turned rancid. Tourists traveling Hwy 1 often stopped for fresh buttermilk and a famed publisher William Randolph Hearst stopped often in Harmony on his way to his opulent home in San Simeon, 12 miles northwest, as did many of the Hollywood celebrities who were frequent guests of Hearst.
Increased grazing land fees and dairy industry consolidation led to the closure of Harmony's creamery around 1955. The town, which still has a part time post office, lost population until the 1970s when it was rediscovered by California's young counter-culture population, many of whom were looking for a rural lifestyle where they could practice traditional crafts away from the pressures and technology of urban life. Many of the town's historic landmarks, including the main creamery, were restored and reopened as restaurants and shops.
Since the 1970s Harmony has ridden cycles of prosperity and neglect, but has had upscale restaurants, crafts, ceramics and art. More recently, Harmony became a town in name only; a single restaurant remained, but went through several owners before closing in the late 1990s. A small cadre of artisans keep Harmony alive, with retail shops selling art objects, locally hand blown glass and pottery, but the town faces an uncertain future. Helping keep the town alive is Harmony Cellars, a boutique winery and tasting room about 1/4 mile south. The winery opened in 1989 and in 2006 produced about 6,000 cases of Central Coast varietals like Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Harmony consists of one street off of SR 1. To one side is a long abandoned house, a large dumpster, and a former art gallery, with some portable toilets. In front of the house is the "treecar" – an old grey Nissan Z with a tree collapsed upon it. On the other side of the street is a "U" shaped building, with the open area being a small, unfurnished plaza. On the far side of the structure is the Harmony Pottery Shop. On the near side is the post office. In the elongated center of the building is storage for the pottery shop.
The Harmony Pottery Shop sells pottery, T-shirts, and soft drinks. The post office was in operation until April 11, 2008.

Suggested by the book Flying Saucers from Outer Space by retired U.S. Marine Corps Major Donald F. Keyhoe, this story, about an alien invasion of Earth, is highlighted by spectacular special effects by Ray Harryhausen.

Charles was always cutting out stories from newspapers and in the mid-fifties there were a spat of flying saucer sightings. Charles thought this phenomenon would make a good feature and so Earth Vs the Flying Saucers was the result.
The design of the saucers was based on what most people would expect but Ray added an animated section into the top and underside that also had flutes in them so that people could see it was moving.
The various sizes of saucers (there are seven in total) were made from aluminium by Ray’s father and then anodised giving them a matt finish so they didn’t reflect light.
Ray never liked the latex alien suits used in the film even though he designed them. He would have preferred to animate models of the aliens but because of budget restrictions this was never possible.
Instead of drawing entire storyboards for the action, Ray used location photographs and executed rough sketches on them and then mounted them for storyboards.
As with The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, a great number of the rear project plates were stills.
For all the aerial model work Ray used old recording wire on which to suspend the saucers.
The miniatures sets – The Capitol and the Supreme Court buildings cost $1500 each and the Washington Monument cost just $500. Compare those costs with today’s budgets
Earth vs. The Flying Saucers (EvFS) is the flagship of 50s sci-fi B movies. It has all the hallmarks of a typical B movie: shot in black and white, much stock footage, low-budget props, etc. That said, EvFS is still the best of its breed. The acting is good (for the most part). Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion animation of the saucers is great. His saucers have more "life" than any model on a string could attain. The basic premise of hostile aliens invading the earth with flying saucers was a classic. EvFS would be a significant influence in Tim Burton's 1996 movie Mars Attacks.
Dr. Marvin (Hugh Marlowe) heads a nascent satellite program, but all of his satellites blow up or fall from orbit. A saucer buzzes Dr. Marvin and his wife as they drive to the base. Despite a call from Dr. Marvin's father-in-law (Morris Ankrum), they launch the next rocket. A saucer descends on the base. Troops open fire. The saucer is invulnerable, but one of the robot-like aliens is hit. The other alien-bots use heat beams to destroy the base. Only Dr. Marvin and his wife escape because they were in a deep bunker. The aliens came from a defunct solar system, intent on taking over the earth. They want earthlings to surrender peacefully so their new home won't be a ruin from the battle. Mankind is defiant. The aliens give earth 56 days to think it over. The time is used, instead, to develop an anti-saucer weapon. Dr. Marvin and staff develop a magnetic disruptor which makes the saucers unstable. When the fleet of saucers finally arrive over Washington DC, a whole fleet of disrupter-beam equipped Ford flatbed trucks is there to greet them. A mighty battle rages. Saucer heat beams destroy much, but the trucks take their toll too. Saucers wobble and fall into a variety of DC landmarks, including the Washington Monument. Finally, the last saucer falls. Earth is saved! The end.
It's hard not to enjoy this classic of 50s B sci-fi. It has everything a 50 sci-fi fan loves. The acting is reasonably good, the pacing is pretty good too, so even someone who isn't a fan of the genre could be suitably entertained.
EvFS is a classic allegory of Cold War tensions. A hostile force seeks to invade and take over. In the mid-50s, the threat from communism was never far from viewers' minds. The caustic Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev would say, later in 1956 "We will bury you!" would say later. When, in the movie, the earthlings decide to fight the saucers, an Army general says: "When an armed and threatening power lands uninvited in our capitol, we don't meet him with tea and cookies!" Such was American popular sentiment towards the threat of communism.
Stock Footage Fun -- amid the usual clips of P-80s and V-2s (Checkers!) and other military clips, are stock disaster clips. Storms, fires, destruction. For the sci-fi fan, there are also snippets recycled from earlier sci-fi movies. There are battle scenes cut from War of the Worlds ('53) and The Day the Earth Stood Still ('51).
Cheap Suit -- The aliens walk about in crude robot-like suits with faceless bullet-shaped helmets. The fit and finish of these suits is quite poor when you get a good look at them.
Alien Glimpse -- The brief scene in which the real alien (head) is exposed, reveals the taxonomy that would become archetypal: big head, tapering to a small neck, large almond-shaped eyes, tiny mouth. They're also said to weigh little, being fairly weak and frail. Of the many sorts of invading aliens seen thus far in the 50s, some were simple -- men in leotards Killers from Space, if not just plain people Devil Girl from Mars and Flight to Mars and giant humanoids: The Thing. A very few hostile (or at least frightening) invaders were not humanoid: Invaders from Mars and War of the Worlds. The alien in EvFS appears to be an early showing of what would later become the presumed "true" shape of alien life forms.
Bottom line? EvFS is well worth watching. Fans of 50s sci-fi will enjoy it. Family members of fans of 50s sci-fi can tolerate it. In many ways, it is the epitome of the B grade 50s science fiction movie.

Southern Region Battle of Britain Class 4-6-2 no 34067 Tangmere.
On the Taunton to Canterbury via Folkesoine Harbour outing.
Possibly the last Steam Train on this line before it is removed.
This is a train with a real ‘wow’ factor that any steam enthusiast would not want to miss on a circular tour of over 200 miles hauled by Southern Railway Battle of Britain Pacific No 34067 ‘Tangmere’ complete with the Golden Arrow regalia. The highlight of the day being the 1 in 30 climb up the soon to be closed branch from Folkestone Harbour.
The Golden Arrow was a luxury train of the Southern Railway and later British Railways that linked London with Dover, where passengers took the ferry to Calais to join the Flèche d’Or of the Chemin de Fer du Nord and later SNCF that took them onto Paris.
~If you are like me, Christmas is fore-most, the most blessed day of all the year... It is also a time that is most painful to the heart. I think about my loved ones waiting in Heaven. I think of those I have loved, those I have helped, those I call my friends and those whom are my family. I think of the heartache caused by those who have left me stranded, those who didn't care to try and those who take without giving. I also thought of how resentful I was to them, of my angry words and thoughts, but as I read these verse's I thought of the many people dealing with the same emotions that I am and who are having a Blue Christmas this year.
Three Christmas wishes is an offering of healing by verse to the emotional pain often felt on Christmas and sometimes throughout the year. In each verse there is a wish that you will listen to them with your heart and be healed of all afflictions by hearing God's words.
Three Christmas Wishes
By Angel Cher
* Depressed
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
Isaiah 43;2
** Angry (Remember that often anger in just a real deep pain and not actually a hatred!!)
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is written, vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Romans 12:19
*** In Grief
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Thessalonians 4:13, 14

El Alto is the sister city of La Paz, right next to it but above, in the altiplano. While La Paz expands downwards along the valley, with the richest population leaving in the lowest parts, El Alto is growing further from it, peopled by poor immigrants from the highlands.

TRAMWAY BUILDING (Teatro Hotel)
1100 14th St.
National Register 1/5/1978, 5DV.140
The 1911 red brick office building and attached streetcar barn served as the headquarters of the city’s public transportation system until its purchase by the City of Denver in 1971. The prolific architectural firm of William E. and Arthur A. Fisher designed the three-part vertical block type structure with its striking white terra cotta accents. The property is associated with the Historic Resources of Downtown Denver Multiple Property Submission.
The Denver Tramway building was built in 1911 and held the city's public transportation system offices and attached street-car barn until 1971. The structure was designed by the firm of Fisher & Fisher and restored in the 1990s and is now home to the upscale Hotel Teatro.
The operation of Denver’s streetcar system impacted the business district in the first half of the twentieth century. Denver architects William E. and Arthur Fisher designed the 1912 Denver City Tramway Company’s corporate headquarters at1100 14th Street.
The Tramway Company, the major public transportation system of early twentieth century Denver, resulted from the consolidation of earlier street railway firms in 1899, and its route influenced the patterns of development of the city. The eight-story Renaissance Revival style red brick building with white terra-cotta trim had an attached three-story streetcar barn.

El principal responsable del proyecto de los telescopios "Magic", Florian Goebel, de 35 años y nacionalidad alemana, falleció el pasado miércoles, sobre las 23:30 horas, tras caer desde unos diez metros de altura, según informaron fuentes de la Guardia Civil y del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC).
Al parecer, la víctima se precipitó al suelo cuando supervisaba las tareas de puesta en marcha del instrumento de observación estelar "Magic-II", situado en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, en la isla de La Palma.
Hacia el citado observatorio se desplazó el subdirector del IAC, Carlos Martínez, así como los responsables, por parte de dicha institución científica, del proyecto "Magic".
Según explicó el IAC en un comunicado, Florian Goebel era doctor en Astrofísica e investigador del Max Planck Institut für Physik de Munich, y, en el momento del accidente, se encontraba ultimando los últimos detalles del telescopio.
"Magic-II"
La colaboración "Magic", una de las instituciones usuarias del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, dispone de dos telescopios Cherenkov en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos.
El telescopio "Magic-II" tiene previsto triplicar los resultados científicos obtenidos por su predecesor, el "Magic-I", en la investigación de los rayos cósmicos. Asimismo, dicho instrumento está situado a unos 2.200 metros de altitud sobre el nivel del mar.
A tenor de la información divulgada en la jornada de ayer por el IAC, la inauguración de dicho telescopio, prevista para el próximo 19 de septiembre, fue suspendida como consecuencia del trágico suceso.
The Eleanor crosses were 12 originally wooden, but later lavishly decorated stone, monuments, of which three survive intact, in a line down part of the east of England. King Edward I had the crosses erected between 1291 and 1294 in memory of his wife Eleanor of Castile, marking the nightly resting-places along the route taken by her body as it was taken to London. Several artists worked on the crosses, as the "Expense Rolls" of the Crown show, with some of the work being divided between the main figures, sent from London, and the framework, made locally. William of Ireland was apparently the leading sculptor of figures
The Northampton cross is still standing at the edge of Delapré Abbey; the King stayed at nearby Northampton Castle. This cross was begun in 1291 by John of Battle. He worked with William of Ireland to carve the statues: William was paid £3 6s. 8d. per figure.
The cross is octagonal in shape and set upon some steps - the present ones are replacements. It is built in three tiers and originally had a crowning terminal - possibly a cross. It is not known when this became lost. A local anecdote says that it was knocked off by a low flying aircraft from a nearby airfield in WWII.
The Cross is referred to in Daniel Defoe's a "Tour through the whole island of Great Britain", where he reports on the Great Fire of Northampton in 1675, "...a townsman being at Queen's Cross upon a hill on the south side of the town, about two miles (3 km) off, saw the fire at one end of the town then newly begun, and that before he could get to the town it was burning at the remotest end, opposite where he first saw it."
Its bottom tier features open books. These probably included painted inscriptions of her biography and of prayers for her soul to be said by viewers, now lost.

Ultima intervista a Woody Allen a Cannes
“Ve lo dico un’altra volta: non c’è felicità nella vita. Questa è sempre stata la mia prospettiva: lo penso sin da quando ero un ragazzo.
Per me la vita è un viaggio da incubo, un’esperienza molto dolorosa e non sono il primo a dirlo. Penso anche a Nietzsche, Freud o Eugene O’Neill che sostenevano la stessa cosa. Il trucco è sapere affrontare la vita mentendo spudoratamente a se stessi. Perché se si finisce col guardarla con occhi obiettivi vi rendereste conto che è intollerabile.
La cosa bella di questa città è che il clima è grigio e le estati sono fredde, il che può essere davvero utile per creare una fotografia unica per il film. Ma me ne starei comodamente nella mia amata New York se potessi trovare i finanziamenti per le mie storie. Girare in Europa costa molto meno, solo per questo continuo a farlo.
Non ci sono attori con cui aspiro tanto a lavorare, be’ mi piacerebbe dirigere Cate Blanchett o Reese Witherspoon ma non ho ancora trovato un ruolo per loro. Dipende sempre dallo script e una volta che ho creato il personaggio penso a chi posso offrirlo. Con quest’ultima pellicola sono stato molto fortunato a trovarli tutti gli attori che volevo. E tutti erano disponibili.
Non recito perché non trovo un ruolo adatto a me. Sono troppo vecchio e molti dei ruoli nei film che ho fatto sono sempre quelli di un romantico che riesce a conquistare la sua donna. Adesso non immaginate la frustrazione che provo quando recito insieme a Scarlett Johansson ed è un uomo più giovane ad averla!
Se potessi invecchiare come Manoel De Oliveira ci metterei subito la firma. Ma la mia posizione sulla morte resta sempre quella: sono profondamente contrario. E in quanto alla vecchiaia non ve la consiglio affatto! Non è che si diventa più saggi, ma è tutto un precipitare di dolore in cui ti ritrovi a vedere e sentire sempre meno e scordarti le cose in fretta.
Datemi retta, meglio essere giovani e riuscire a conquistare la vostra donna."
Pierpaolo Festa, inviato di Film.it al Festival 15/05/2010
I grew up thinking of snow as a luxury you visit.
- John Landis
Finally a photo that I actually took this year, and one I were quite pleased with as well.
About this shot:
As usual we had a lot of snow in Norway this year, and a favourite weekend activity is going snow racing. As a result my body is usually aching and beat up afterwards, but the fun really weighs up for that. This is a shot of Ellen snow racing at high speed :-) A little tight shot but with lots of action nonetheless.
Processing:
I did a white balance correction and a slight hue shift in Lightroom to get the shot a little more blue and wintery. Also i despeckled in Photoshop, added a Pro Contrast-layer with Nik software and a Photo Pop-layer in Topaz Adjust. All with default settings. Finally I removed the dark vignette produced by my tele lens and sharpened in PS before saving as a JPG.
Soundtrack:
Phoenix - Love Like A Sunset Part I (Spotify)

Douz es la puerta del desierto tunecino, está situada en el extremo contrario a Tozeur del lago salado de Chott El Jerid. Pese a la creciente presencia de todoterrenos y otras máquinas, aquí el rey sigue siendo el dromedario. Hay alrededor de catorce mil en la zona, aunque tan solo doscientos Meharis, reconocibles por su color blanco, su descomunal altura, su carácter soberbio y altivo pero tremendamente fiel a su dueño. Son sin duda los dromedarios más hermosos que existen y los protagonistas de las grandes carreras que se organizan en el desierto del norte de África, incluido el mítico maratón de Douz que se celebra en invierno durante el festival del Sahara o festival del Camello.
El festival, llamado el festival del camello , se inició en 1910, cuando Túnez estaba bajo dominio francés. En 1967 adquirió su identidad moderna de acuerdo a la voluntad de H. Bourguiba , primer presidente de la nueva República de Túnez, para convertirse en el festival más antiguo y más conocido del país. M'hammed Marzougui, dedicó su vida a hacer que la gente tome conciencia y apreciar el modo de vida nómada y las tradiciones, fue el principal responsable de la fundación del festival. Desde entonces, cada año, a finales de diciembre, durante cuatro días, miles de personas, la mayoría de todo Túnez y otros países Maghrebies, acuden a Douz. Después de la ceremonia de apertura, comienzan los principales eventos en el estadio H´naiech situado frente al desierto y rodeado de tiendas beduinas. Los maratones de camellos, las galopadas de caballos árabes montados por atrevidos jinetes, las peleas de dromedarios, la celebración de matrimonios beduinos o el sloughi (caza del conejo con perros del desierto) son las principales atracciones del festival. Por la noche, los grupos de países visitantes interpretan canciones y bailes y concursos de poesía.
