The United States Air Force Memorial honors the service of the personnel of the United States Air Force and its predecessors. The Memorial is located in Arlington, Virginia, on the grounds of Fort Myer near The Pentagon, at the intersection of Columbia Pike and South Joyce Street. It was the last project of American architect James Ingo Freed (known for the design of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum) with the firm Pei Cobb Freed & Partners for the United States Air Force Memorial Foundation.
Pictured in the foreground is the Air Force "star," which has long been emblazoned on Air Force aircraft and serves as the rank insignia of every enlisted member of the Air Force.
In the background, across the Potomac, the Washington Memorial is also visible.

Love the contrasts here between the classic old shape of St Martin's in the Bull Ring in Birmingham and the classic new shape of the locally famous Selfridges building.

WINSTON-SALEM, NC – Winston-Salem State's Javan Wells scored a game high 19 points to lead three Rams in double figures, as WSSU knocked down free throws down the stretch to secure a 61-58 win over Virginia State University on Thursday night at the CE Gaines Center.
With the win Winston-Salem State improves to 8-4 overall and 1-2 in the CIAA. Virginia State falls to 8-5 overall and 2-2 in the CIAA.
The Virginia State Trojans scored the first basket of the game, but it was the Rams who took early control of the contest, as WSSU would use a 15-6 run to take a 15-8 lead with 14:06 on the clock.
The Trojans would battle back to tie the game at 20-20, and even took a 22-20 lead before the Rams would go on another run of 10-5 to close out the first half and take a 30-27 lead into halftime.
In the second half, Winston-Salem State would lose its lead early, but a basket from WyKevin Bazemore would give the lead back to the Rams who would keep the Trojans at bay until the 7:49 mark, when Amiel Terry would hit a jumper to give the lead back to Virginia State.
But what was a sore spot for the Rams on their recent road trip, became a good thing coming down the stretch, as the Rams connected on 10 of 11 free throws in crunch time. The WSSU Rams were able to hold off the Trojans and come away with a 61-58 win.
Winston-Salem State was led by Javan Wells who finished with a game-high 19 points, while he also collected three rebounds and two blocked shots. Terrell leach scored 15 points, pulled down four rebounds, three assists and a steal. CJ Ford finished with 14 points, nine rebounds and an assist. Donta Harper added seven points, four rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots. WyKevin Bazemore chipped in four points, six rebounds, one assist and one steal.
Virginia State was led by Tyrece Little, who finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds and a blocked shot. Xavier Parham added 10 points, while Elijah Moore added eight points and five rebounds.
Winston-Salem State will continue their homestand on Saturday afternoon, when they will host the Hawks of Chowan at 4:00pm in the CE Gaines Center.
WSSU junior sprinter Nya Michaux had one of the top performances of the day when she placed fourth in the women's 200m run. She recorded a 25.68 in the event to lead all NCAA Division II competitors in the event. The Lady Rams trio of sophomore Micalyne Zimmerman (9th), junior Danisha Wiggins (10th), and senior Michelle Turner (11th) all had solid efforts in the women's 1-mile run. Zimmerman led the way with a 5:46.51 while Wiggins added a 5:48.63 and Turner posted a 6:00.33. The Lady Rams' 4x400m relay team also had a strong day with a 4:03.48 to finish fourth at the meet.
Lady Rams senior long jumper Tajanel McNeil led the way in the field events when she placed third in the women's long jump. She recorded a 17'7" (5.36m).
The Lady Rams will return to action next weekend when the team returns to the JDL Fast Track to host the 2015 Winston-Salem State Open. For more information on Lady Rams track & field, contact the WSSU Office of Athletic Media Relations at (336) 750-2143 or log on to www.WSSURams.com.

Two stars of the tram fleet at Beamish, The Living Museum of the North. Pictured passing in the loop at the Pockerley Old Hall stop are (left) double-decker Blackpool balloon No 703 (disguised as Sunderland No 101) and single-decker Grimsby & Immingham No 26, in British Railways Eastern Region livery. The former, an Art Deco design, was built during the Thirties, the latter in the Twenties.

Chele La Pass, Paro, Bhutan.
The Chele La Pass is one of the highest vantage points in Bhutan, from which you can marvel at commanding views of the surrounding snow-capped mountains and valleys while the Himalayan yaks grazing in the horizon, dotted with electricity pylons. A 2-hour drive from Paro takes you to one of the highest vantage points, Chele La Pass. A botanical paradise, you’ll also be able to spot sacred mountains Jomolhari and Jichu Drake as cascades of wild roses, purple and yellow primulas and swathes of deep blue iris drape the forest floor.
At a height of 3,988 metres, the Chele La Pass is not to be underestimated – chilly and windy, try and make it here before packed in your warmest clothes for some of the most gorgeous views to be had in Bhutan.

A young boy, whose parents work in repairing a palace in Fatehpur Sikri, takes aim. He, like many other boys I've met, was interested in my camera. The older boys were interested in my money as well. I asked him to do a little pose for me and then paid him the usual 16 ISK, quite a lot for a young boy in India.
Thanks to my friend, I had the opportunity to shoot my first basketball game of any kind. Wow, if I thought football was hard, put 10 big bodies and two refs in a small space running every direction - while trying to make a frame.
