Suspended Animation Classic #141
Originally published September 8, 1991 (#36)
Doc Savage
By R. A. Jones
From the 1920s till the early 1950s, when the paperback book became dominant, people found their appetite for literature satisfied in the pages of the pulp magazines. Originally selling for one thin dime, the pulps brought the world such enduring characters as Tarzan and The Shadow.
From 1933 to 1949, the pulps also carried the adventures of a bronze-skinned superman named Doc Savage. As with many such characters, Doc Savage has likewise been the star of several comic book series.
The newest of these – subtitled “The Monarch of Armageddon” – has just been released. The story is set in 1938. Doc Savage, having spent a decade fighting evil schemes hatched all over the world, has decided he needs a vacation of sorts, a chance to be a more or less normal man.
This alone wouldn’t make for a very dramatic story, of course, so you know something is going to interfere with his plans. Or in this case – someone. A villain named John Sunlight, whom Savage had fought and beaten before, has now launched a new plan to destroy the man of bronze. Aiding the evildoer is a band of American Nazis.
I had a few problems with the scripting of this book. At times it is a bit camp, employing rather lame attempts at humor. The character of Savage himself has also been altered slightly; he is not so coolly efficient as in the original stories.
Still, it is an engaging tale that moves at a good, rapid clip. It is further aided by solid artwork and coloring. You don’t have to be a fan of Doc Savage to enjoy this book – you only need a love for adventure.
“Doc Savage” is published by Millennium at a price of $2.50, and is available in comic book specialty stores.

On November 11, 2019, Disney launched their streaming service, called Disney+ (a.k.a Disney Plus) . With it, they added lots of favorite movies and TV shows, along with new series, including the Mandalorian. I take a look at the new platform 24 hours later, to show you all the good and bad with this new service.
What is on Disney+
The Mandalorian
The service has content from as much of the library that they can publish. Movies and TV shows from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, and National Geographic.
Included are new series and movies specifically for the streaming service. This includes the highly anticipated “Mandalorian” – a series by director Jon Favreau.
Finally, content from early Disney, including Mickey Mouse cartoons, digitally remastered. This includes the iconic “Steamboat Willie” – and the introduction of Mickey himself.
What is Not on Disney+
Keep in mind, not all video is on the streaming service. For example, Sony owns rights to Spiderman movies, so this content needs to be licensed for the service to use it. On that same token, Disney was known for bringing out limited release classics of Snow White, Cinderella, and more.
I could see this content come and go to keep with that tradition. For now, it is on the service.
Other shows may have existing license contracts that prohibit Disney from airing until the contract runs out. For that point, movies, and shows could also leave Disney, just like they leave Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon, to be shown on Network TV, HBO, or even the competing services.
Missing is ABC content (I really wanted to watch Flashforward again, or maybe catch up on Lost), older shows – such as Gargoyles, Darkwing Duck, Netflix Marvel shows like Jessica Jones and Daredevil, and movies like Mighty Ducks and National Treasure.
How to Watch Disney+
The service is ready for many major OTT platforms, including iOS, Android, XBox, PS4, Roku, Amazon, along with LG and Samsung TV platforms. More may be coming soon.
Disney also has an extended package with Hulu, so you can watch not only all the content from the app, but also ESPN+. This service does cost more as an add-on, but if you’re a sports fan, this might be
Other Features of Disney+
The service is fairly straightforward, but they do have options to talk with support, opt-out on advertising companies, give you options for Closed Captioning that are beyond what Disney has on the service, and more.
All of these features are on links, located on the bottom of the webpage. You will have to log into a browser version of the service to access those features.
Original Series
The World According to Jeff Goldblum
There are other great new series that will be on Disney+. What I believe to be another great breakout show is “The World According to Jeff Goldblum”. This is a NatGeo series where Goldblum geeks out over other people’s passions.
In Encore, Kristen Bell reunites casts from High School musicals to re-enact the theater show. First episode reunited the 1996 Santee CA High School cast of Annie.
The Marvel Hero Project celebrates real life children and teens as they show extra ordinary feats.
Price of Disney+
As of 2019, it cost $6.99/month for the basic service, or $69.99 for a yearly subscription. Like I mentioned above, for $12.99/month, you can add it to your Hulu subscription – getting ESPN+ along with it.
The New Ecosystem of Streaming Service – How it Affects Netflix, Hulu, Amazon
I discuss this in the video. The reality is – each service has their own original content, along with licensed shows that Disney will most likely never have. I also believe Disney will license out shows and movies to these services

First published 1961 by Jonathan Cape Ltd.
This edition published 1963 by Pan Books Ltd., 8 Headfort Place, London SW1.
Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (1656-1708) was a French botanist. He was born to a well-to-do family in Aix-en-Provence. Tournefort initially took up studies in theology. However, as he had a marked inclination towards natural sciences, he turned to medicine. He completed his studies at the University of Montpellier. In 1681, he was in Barcelona doing research in botany. In 1694 Tournefort published his first three-volume work, in which he classified 8846 plants. In 1698 he became Doctor in Medicine of the University of Paris. At that time his treatise was also translated into Latin. Tournefort became a famous physician and naturalist. He travelled extensively in Western Europe (Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, England). He had published a number of works on botany, and had acquired a fabulous collection of nearly 50.000 books, as well as costumes, arms, minerals, shells and various curiosities. Thus, he already had a very important career behind him when Louis XIV entrusted him with the mission to bring new plants to the Royal Botanical Garden.
Tournefort started out on his voyage to the Near East in the spring of 1700, at the age of 44, accompanied by a painter and a doctor. He visited thirty-eight islands of the Greek archipelago, as well as Northern Anatolia, Pontus and Armenia, and reached Tiflis in Georgia. Tournefort returned to Marseilles in June 1702.
His manuscript, composed of his letters to the Minister of the Exterior Count de Pontchartain, was published posthumously in 1717. A number of re-editions followed, while his work was also translated into English, German and Flemish. There is also a Greek translation of the first part. The fact that Tournefort had discovered new plants in his journey led him to publish a supplement to his main work of botanical classification in 1703. He taught Botany in the Académie, while continuing to practice medicine; at the same time, he was in charge of the Royal Gardens, where many plants he brought from his travels were cultivated with success. Having survived a multitude of adventures, Tournefort died of an accident in 1708. He did not live to see the publication of his travel chronicle, which in the following three centuries became the basic manual to all travellers to these regions. Until today, researchers from numerous fields turn to Tournefort’s text, as it remains an invaluable source of information. He describes the places he visited in a particular systematic manner.
The systematic way he organizes his information on topography, economy, administration, ethnic composition, customs and habits of everyday life shows how one can arrive at truth and knowledge through research, methodical study, classification and generalisation. To document his research, Tournefort cites a hundred and thirty-five texts by Greek and Latin authors as well as Byzantine writers, Humanists, and earlier travel accounts.
He methodically narrates his visit to each island, and describes the locations as well as events that he witnessed and encounters with locals. He then continues with the island’s history from ancient times to the current age, citing the corresponding myths, and comparing with the information provided by ancient coins. Subsequently, he writes on the island’s administration and taxes, commerce, products and prices thereof. An entire chapter is dedicated to the Greek church. Tournefort also writes on monasteries and churches, house architecture and caves. He also describes the customs, the dress and the occupations of the inhabitants. He concludes his chapters with geographical observations from the highest point of each main region.
Naturally, his work includes engravings of city views, locations and monuments as well as plants, instruments and costumes. The text becomes alive with vivid descriptions of his encounters with islanders, be it Turks, Franks, Greeks or privateers. Of special interest are his descriptions of fortresses, ports, safe havens and his information on map drawing.
The second volume is a publication of his thoroughly documented manuscripts. It was not edited by Tournefort himself as had happened with the first. On numerous occasions he refers to the politics, administration and ethnic composition of the Ottoman Empire. He continues with his journey on the southern coast of the Black Sea to Armenia. The work closes with a short description of Smyrna and Ephesus.
Tournefort is considered the first to have shown the islands of the Archipelago to be “travel material”, as he offered information which inspired the interest for further research, and also highlighed each location’s wealth and uniqueness.

Fransız botanikçi Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (1656-1708) Aix-en-Provence'da varlıklı bir aile içinde doğar, ilk önce tanrıbilim (teoloji) dersleri izler ancak genç yaştan beri doğa bilimlerine eğilim gösterir. Bu yüzden Montpellier'de tıp öğrenimi görüp 1681'de botanik araştırmaları yapmak üzere Barcelona'ya gelir. 1694 yılında üç ciltlik ve 8.846 bitkinin sınıflandırmasına ilişkin ilk eserini yayınlar; 1698'de Paris Tıp Fakültesinden doktor unvanını alır ve bu kazanımı yapıtının latince çevirisi izler. Doktor ve doğa bilimcisi olarak ün salmış, Batı Avrupa'da (İspanya, Portekiz, Hollanda, İngiltere'ye) seyahat etmiş, botanoloji ile ilgili kitaplar yayınlamış, 50.000'e yakın kitaptan meydana gelen bir kitaplık oluşturmuş, ayrıca yerel kıyafet, silah, mineral, deniz kabuğu ve daha başka ilginç şeylerden oluşan hayranlık uyandıran koleksiyonlar sahibi olmuşken, kral 14. Louis ona Kraliyet Botanik Bahçesine yeni bitkiler getirme görevini verir. Tournefort 1700 yılının ilkbaharında, 44 yaşındayken, yanına yoldaş olarak bir ressam ve bir doktor alarak Yakın Doğu'ya doğru yola çıkar.
Ege adalarından 38 tanesini ziyaret eder, Kuzey Anadolu'nun her tarafını gezip Karadeniz ve Ermenistan yörelerine gelir, Tiflis'e varır. Tournefort, 1702 yılının Haziran ayında Marsilya'da karaya ayak basar.
Kaleme aldığı metin (Dışişleri bakanı Kont de Pontchartain'e yolladığı mektuplar biçiminde) ilk olarak 1717'de yayınlanır, bu ilk yayını bir çok yeni baskı izler ve eser ingilizce, almanca ve flamanca gibi dillere- ilk kısmı yunancaya da - çevrilir. Yeni keşfettiği bitkilerin daha önce belirlemiş olduğu sınıflandırma sistemine eklenmesi sonucu olarak 1703'te yeni bir cilt yayınlar. Tournefort botanik profesörü sıfatıyla Akademide dersler verir, doktorluk mesleğini ve bunlara koşut olarak Kraliyet Bahçesinin sorumluluğu görevini sürdürür. Gezilerinden getirmiş olduğu birçok yeni bitki bu bahçede başarılı bir şekilde yetiştirilir. Tournefort geçirdiği birçok maceradan kefeni yırtmışken, üç asır boyunca her gezginin bu bölge için başucu kitabı olacak seyahatnamesinin yayınlanmasını göremeden 1708'de bir kaza sonucu ölür. Bugün hâlâ çeşitli dallardan araştırmacılar Tournefort'un metnine başvurup son derece değerli bilgilerinden faydalanmak durumundalar. Eseri anında ingilizce, hollandaca ve almancaya çevrilmişti.
Gezdiği yerleri betimlerken belirli bir yöntem izleyerek topoğrafya, ekonomi, yönetim, milletler sentezi ve günlük yaşamdaki örf ve adetlere ilişkin bilgiler verirken, Tournefort, bilginin gerçeğe uyup uymadığı konusuna araştırma, düzenli okuma, sınıflandırma ve genelleştirme yoluyla yanaşılabileceğini kanıtlıyor. Kanıtlayıcı belgeleri arasında antik Yunan ve Latin yazarlarından, ayrıca Bizans yazarlarından ve daha eski hümanist bilgin ve gezginlerden 135 tane metin bulunmakta.
Ziyaret ettiği her ada için düzenli olarak ziyaretini anlatıp birçok yeri ve olayı hatta yerlilerle olan görüşmelerini de betimler. Bunlara ek olarak, adanın eski çağlardan gününe dek tarihi ve bununla ilintili efsaneler, sikkeler hakkında, yönetim, vergilendirme usulleri, ticaret, ürünler ve fiyatları hakkında bilgiler verir. Ayrıca Yunanistan'ın dinî (kilise) yaşamına başlıbaşına bir bölüm ayırır. Manastırlar, kiliseler, evlerin mimarisi, mağaralar hakkında yazar, adetler ve kıyafetleri betimleyip halkın uğraşlarından sözeder ve önemli yörelerin her birinin en yüksek irtifasından yaptığı coğrafya gözlemleri ile anlatımını bitirir.
Doğal olarak eserinde şehir, yer, anıt, bitki, alet, ve kıyafet görünümleri ile ilgili gravürler de yer almakta. Ayrıca metni ada halkıyla (Türkler, Latinler, Yunanlılar, korsanlarla) ilişkilerinden çarpıcı betimlemelerle de çeşitlenir. Kitabında hisarlar, gemi barınakları, güvenli limanlar hakkında yaptığı betimlemeler ve harita çizimi ile ilgili verdiği bilgiler özel ilgi uyandıran kısımlar arasındadır.
Eserinin birinci cildinin yayına hazırlığını kendisi denetlemişken ikinci cilt kendi ayrıntılı yazılarına sadık kalınarak basılır. Bu cildin başındaki birçok bölüm Osmanlıların siyasal, yönetimsel ve etnografik durumuna ayrılmıştır. Bunun devamında Karadeniz'in güney kıyılarında yaptığı Ermenistan'a kadar varan yolculuğunu anlatıp kitabı İzmir ve Efes'in kısa bir betimlemesi ile bitirir.
Böylece Tournefort, başkalarında arayış isteğini besleyecek nitelikte malzeme sağlamanın yanısıra, gördüğü her yerin sonsuz zengiliğini ve kendine özgü niteliklerini yüzeye çıkarması açısından Ege adalarına bir "yolculuk uknumu" veren ilk şahıs olarak bilinir.

Special and sincere thanks go to Agha Waseem who not only offered me hospitality but also is kind enough to allow me to use some of his photos.
So I can now say I have one of my photos published! Of course it's on the front page of the Franklin County, Shippensburg Telephone Book, but I still count that :-)
I was contacted by a rep with Yellowbook who asked if they could potentially use one of three of the photos I had taken in the Greencastle, PA area. Of course, my photos were put into a pool of other peoples' photos, so I didn't figure I'd ultimately be picked. However I was later contacted with the cover photo here showing that they did in fact pick one of my photos of the Greencastle Town Square! I was and still am very excited and grateful that someone thought that much of my work that it's now on a book that many in the area will now see. The original photo is in my photostream at this link: www.flickr.com/photos/trainmann1/7826083460/

È prevista solo una data in Italia per il nuovo tour di LP, all'anagrafe Laura Pergolizzi, il 15 maggio 2019 al Fabrique di Milano.
La cantautrice ha da poco pubblicato "Heart to Mouth”, uscito il 7 dicembre scorso.
“Heart to Mouth” è il quinto album in studio di LP anticipato dal singolo “Girls Go Wild” e dall’apripista “Recovery”. L’artista è stata in Italia per due tappe del suo instore tour negli scorsi giorni avvenuto a Roma e Milano. Parlando del nuovo album ha dichiarato: “Quando mi metto a comporre, c’è una sola linea, dritta: dal mio cuore alla mia bocca. In passato, c’era una città piena di strade che aveva bisogno della mia attenzione. Ora, mi sento come se avessi una grande autostrada per comunicare emozioni. Che si tratti di canzoni melanconiche o di grandi inni, vengono tutte dallo stesso posto”. Nei testi di “Heart to Mouth” sono affrontati diversi temi: dall’amore alle insicurezze, dal rimpianto all’infedeltà, passando per la redenzione, il sogno, l’abbandono, la lussuria e l’insicurezza. La cantante ha lavorato all’album insieme al “solito” Mike Del Rio, suo storico collaboratore, che già aveva curato la produzione di “Lost on You”.
Nonostante il nome italiano derivante da una madre napoletana e un padre per metà siciliano e per metà irlandese, LP non parla la nostra lingua. Nata nel 1978 ad Huntington, Long Island, New York, e cresciuta a Los Angeles, la cantautrice ha iniziato la sua carriera pubblicando due album, "Heart-Shaped Scar" del 2001 e "Suburban Sprawl & Alcool" del 2004, con due etichette indipendenti che tuttavia non sono riuscite distribuirli a dovere.
Per fortuna, questi primi insuccessi non l'hanno fermata e per diversi anni, LP ha lavorato nell'ombra come compositrice di hit per altre popstar, che includono Rihanna, per cui ha scritto "Cheers (Drink to That)", Christina Aguilera ("Beautiful People"), Cher ("Red", "Pride") e Leona Lewis ("Fingerprints"). Nel frattempo, ha continuato a studiare ed ha iniziato a suonare frequentemente l'ukulele, tanto che, come riporta Enrico Esposito in un articolo su Il Termopolio, la Martin Guitars ha costruito appositamente per lei un ukulele modificato in chitarra, con 6 corde invece di 4.
Dal 2014 ha ripreso ufficialmente ad interpretare le sue canzon aprendo i concerti di Bryan Ferry in America e pubblicando per la Warner Bros prima l'EP "Live at EastWest Studios" e poi l'album "Forever for Now", del 2014, seguito lo scorso 9 dicembre 2016 da "Lost on You", che l'ha portata all'attenzione del pubblico italiano.
East Pediment K
"A seated woman is on the point of rising seemingly startled by events to her right. The head is missing, but once looked towards the centre of the pediment. She wears a light tunic of delicate fabric with a heavier cloak over her knees. She is perhaps Hestia, goddess of the hearth."
East Pediment L and M
A woman reclines in the lap of her companion. Carved form one block, these two may represent Aphrodite, goddess of love in the lap of her mother Dione.
Catherine of Aragon also first took shelter here.
from the London County Council Survey of London, Volume XXII published in 1950:
“The name Cardinal’s Hat (or Cap), for a house on the site of the present No. 49 Bankside, and for the narrow alley which runs down beside it, dates from at least the time of Elizabeth and perhaps earlier. The suggestion that it was named in compliment to Cardinal Beaufort is attractive but untenable, for Beaufort died in 1447, and the original Cardinal’s Hat was not built till many years later.
The site was described in 1470 as “a void piece of ground”. It is possible that it was named after Cardinal Wolsey who was Bishop of Winchester from 1529-30, although no buildings are mentioned in a sale of the site from John Merston, fishmonger, to Thomas Tailloure, fishmonger in 1533. Stowe lists the Cardinal’s Hat as one of the Stewhouses but he may possibly have been mistaken, including it only because it was one of the more prominent inns on Bankside in his day.
It is shown in the Token Book for 1593 as in occupation of John Raven and as one of a group of houses which in the book for 1588 is described as “Mr. Broker’s Rentes”. Hugh Browker, later the owner of the Manor of Paris Garden, was in possession of ground there in 1579 and it seems likely that he was responsible for the formation of Cardinal’s Cap Alley if not for the building of the original house.
Thomas Mansfield was the tenant of the inn when Edward Alleyn dined there with the “vestrye men” of St. Saviour’s parish in December 1617.
A few years later John Taylor, the water poet makes reference to having supper with “the players” at the Cardinal’s Hat on Bankside. Milchisedeck Fritter, brewer, who tenanted the house from 1627 to 1674 issued a halfpenny token. He was assessed for seven hearths in the hearth tax rolls.
The freehold was sold by Thomas Browker to Thomas Hudson in 1667. The later died in 1688 leaving his “messuages on Bankside” to his sister Mary Greene, with reversion to his great nieces Mary and Sarah Bruce. It was at about this date that the older part of the present house was built. During the 18th century it was bought by the Sells family who both owned and occupied it until 1830. in 1841 Edward Sells of Grove Lane, Camberwell, bequeathed his freehold messauge and yard and stables, being No. 49 Bankside, then in the tenure of George Holditch, merchant, to his son, Vincent Sells. The house is now owned by Major Malcolm Munthe. It has previously been occupied by Anna Lee, the actress.”
The Musée national du Moyen Âge, formerly Musée de Cluny, officially known as the Musée national du Moyen Âge – Thermes et hôtel de Cluny ("National Museum of the Middle Ages – Cluny thermal baths and mansion"), is located in the 5th arrondissement at 6 Place Paul-Painlevé, south of the Boulevard Saint-Germain, between the Boulevard Saint-Michel and the Rue Saint-Jacques.
Among the principal holdings of the museum are the six The Lady and the Unicorn (La Dame à la licorne) tapestries.
The structure is perhaps the most outstanding example still extant of civic architecture in medieval Paris. It was formerly the town house (hôtel) of the abbots of Cluny, started in 1334. The structure was rebuilt by Jacques d'Amboise, abbot in commendam of Cluny 1485–1510; it combines Gothic and "Renaissance elements. In 1843, it was made into a public museum, to hold relics of France's Gothic past preserved in the building by Alexandre du Sommerard.
Though it no longer possesses anything originally connected with the abbey of Cluny, the hôtel was at first part of a larger Cluniac complex that also included a building (no longer standing) for a religious college in the Place de la Sorbonne, just south of the present day Hôtel de Cluny along Boulevard Saint-Michel. Although originally intended for the use of the Cluny abbots, the residence was taken over by Jacques d'Amboise, Bishop of Clermont and Abbot of Jumièges, and rebuilt to its present form in the period of 1485-1500. Occupants of the house over the years have included Mary Tudor, the sister of Henry VIII of England. She resided here in 1515 after the death of her husband Louis XII, whose successor, Francis I, kept her under surveillance, particularly to see if she was pregnant. Seventeenth-century occupants included several papal nuncios, including Mazarin.
In the 18th century, the tower of the Hôtel de Cluny was used as an observatory by the astronomer Charles Messier who, in 1771, published his observations in the landmark Messier catalog. In 1789, the hôtel was confiscated by the state, and for the next three decades served several functions. At one point, it was owned by a physician who used the magnificent Flamboyant chapel on the first floor as a dissection room.
In 1833, Alexandre du Sommerard bought the Hôtel de Cluny and installed his large collection of medieval and Renaissance objects. Upon his death in 1842, the collection was purchased by the state; the building was opened as a museum in 1843, with Sommerard's son serving as its first curator. The present-day gardens, opened in 1971, include a "forêt de la licorne" inspired by the tapestries.
The Hôtel de Cluny is partially constructed on the remnants of the third century Gallo-Roman baths (known as the Thermes de Cluny), famous in their own right, and which may be visited. In fact, the museum itself actually consists of two buildings: the frigidarium ("cooling room"), where the vestiges of the Thermes de Cluny are, and the Hôtel de Cluny itself, which houses its impressive collections."

I am now published in a newspaper. Last Friday the Arizona Daily Star, the local paper in Tucson, AZ, published an article in the paper and online about a friend of mine who is receiving an award this weekend from the Tohono O'odham tribe for his work to preserve the traditions and cultures of the Maricopa tribe. The journalist did not feel like driving up from Tucson to Phoenix to get any photos so I took some and sent them to her and three were published.
I am honored to be invited by Richard to attend the awards banquet on Saturday. My wife and I will make a weekend of it.
On-line, only the Spanish version of the article had the photographs (but these are the three). If you are interested in the article about Richard you can go to www.azstarnet.com/allheadlines/310793.php. If that does not work, go to www.azstarnet.com/ and then in the upper right corner search on Richard Goodridge and the two articles will come up (Spanish and English).
Woo hoo! Just got a few copies of My Midwest Magazine (Midwest Airlines pubication) created by Ink Publishing out of Brooklyn NY. The photo I took of the Art Museum and posted on flickr last fall was found by them via TAGS. I was very surprised when they contacted me and asked permission and how much I would sell them usage of the photo for. So after a bit of conversation we came upon a fair price for publishing my photo. I have had photos published in the Press a number of times but I found that this magazine has a million circulation.
I feel like Grover on Sesame Street. "I am so excited!"
Anyways, back to the viewfinder.
And use your TAGS!

This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 24th of August 1915.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images please comment below.

In 1962 Harvard Professor Edward O. Wilson published his study of the trail behaviour of ants. He concluded that they have the ability to set out an invisible path between the colony and a food source, which is detected and followed by members of the same species.
Here, at lunchtime in Princes Dock, Liverpool, office workers show similar behaviour on a trail from their desks to the sandwich shops of the City Centre via a narrow opening in the Dock wall. The ones walking right are heading for the food source, the ones walking in the opposite direction are returning with their lunch.

This is a book project titled "G.D Technology & Art / A story of innovation narrated by eighteen contemporary artists" that is published by Electa, the major Italian publisher for arts books, to celebrate the 85th year anniversary of an important Italian company, G.D. The Italian curator Ludovico Pratesi has asked several artists to photograph and interpret the industrial sites of their country.
Some of the artists who joined the project are Jules Spinatsch for Switzerland, Dayanita Singh for India, Olivier Richon for Great Britain, Caio Reisewitz for Brasil and Argentina, Naoya Hatakeyama for Japan, Gabriele Basilico for Italy, Anthony Goicolea for USA, Sanna Kannisto For Denmark, Murat Germen for Turkey, Gueorgui Pinkhassov for Russia.
G.D, world leader in the manufacture of packaging machines sold in 110 countries for the tobacco sector, is celebrating its 85th anniversary in 2008. The landmark of the celebrations has been the creation of an important photographic book illustrating industrial plants located in 18 different countries throughout the world, where G.D’s customers have their main production sites.
The editorial project of the book consists in photoreports carried out by important and well-known international photographers / artists who went to the customer factories to take the shots. The photos are focused on G.D machines, with or without the people working on them, and on general views of the plants and of the locations, also from the outside.
In March 2013 I received this message:
Dear Steven,
We would like to ask for your permission to use your photo of a P&O Nedlloyd container (below a Maersk one) in an upcoming book we're writing on 40 years of containerisation. It will be published by Cambridge University Press.
This is the one we're talking about: www.flickr.com/photos/stevenbrandist/8494872138/
If yes, then we will of course make sure to fully credit you :-)
Look forward to hearing from you.
Brgds,
Jonathan Wichmann / Maersk Line
A few weeks ago I received a strangely think and heavy packet. They had kept their word and supplied me with a copy in return for letting them use my photo. Page 318 features my photo.
The book is titled "Creating Global Opportunities: Maersk Line in Containerisation 1973-2013".

I'm so excited to share with you my article in the Winter 2011 issue of "Belle Armoire Jewelry". I was given 6 beautiful pages showing my crocheted jewelry.
This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 4th of May 1915.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images or have any stories or information to add please comment below.
Copies of this photograph may be ordered from us, for more information see: www.newcastle.gov.uk/tlt Please make a note of the image reference number above to help speed up your order.

One of my photos taken on Ossington Avenue a few years ago is featured in the latest edition of IDEAT, “un magazine déco et design”. It happens to be the same one that was used by Time Out, except that IDEAT asked for permission, and they mentioned paying me, and they said they will send me a couple of copies. I saw it in a bookshop and asked if I could take pictures. They dedicate five pages to Ossington Avenue. The magazine is in French but so many English words are used that it would seriously annoy Québec’s Office de la langue française.
This is not just any book I am looking at. It is a photo book with write-ups about places in North America to travel with kids. Beyond that it is a book that a photo of MINE has been PUBLISHED! It just arrived this past week.
I must tell you I was blown away when I got the request to be paid to have a photo published in a book. (read my blog entry on it here). In addition to that they were paying me to have the photo in the book! AND... in addition to that they would send me a copy of it when it was in print - so here is my copy, in my hands.
See the next two photos in my stream to see the photo credits... and then too click one more photo further in my stream to see the page in the book with my photo printed on it!
Here is info about the book from an email that was written to me about the book when I was just learing about it. ... in case you are interested in getting a copy: Amazing Places to Take Your Kids in North America will be a large coffee table book that you'll be able to find in places like Wal Mart and on the bargain price bookshelves at places like Barnes & Noble. Travel agencies will also give them away as promotional items. About 10,000 copies will be printed.
