In 1976, the decision was made to ditch ‘Fleet Operators’ and replace it with a truly pocket-sized spotter’s ‘companion’ entitled ‘World Airline Fleets Handbook.’ This softback book measured 4.5” x 6.75” and remained this size for the next three issues to 1979. You will see from the image above that there was a variety of bindings available: square-bound, comb-bound and wire-bound.

1976-1979 WAFH included a selection of black and white airliner photos. From 1980, all photographic illustrations were done away with never to return, and the annual releases have from that day forward become very much a compilation of data. In my opinion, this led to them falling short of the quality of the competing JP Airline Fleets see here: worldoftransportbooks.com/jp-airline-fleets which always provided a decent section of contemporary postcard sized airliner photos (in colour from the 1981 edition) until it was cancelled in 2013.

As for Air Britain, with the new decade came a new title – it was shortened to just ‘Airline Fleets’ which it remains to this day. The 1980 and ‘81 editions retained the 4.5” x 6.75” size but the ’82 edition had 0.75” inches added to the height becoming 4.5” x 7.5.” You can see the difference in height from the image above. This size remained constant until 1986, as did the wire-binding, although it is possible that alternative binding styles were available.

The 1987 edition saw yet another increase in height by 0.75” becoming 4.5” x 8.25” and this size was retained up to the 1989 edition, although binding alternatives are proven by the fact that my ’87 and ’89 editions are wire bound and my ’88 edition is square bound.

Whereas the 1976 to 1979 editions featured photo-pictorial covers, these were replaced by airliner drawings between 1980 and 1986, but reverted to photo-pictorial covers again (this time in colour) for the 1987, ’88 and ’89 volumes.

So they tried it in a trice, and found that it was nice,

And with rapture they embraced one another;

And they said, "By hook or crook, we must keep this aged cook;

So we'll ask him to become our elder brother."

Delivered to US Air as N427US in Nov-89, US Air was renamed US Airways in Feb-97. US Airways was merged into American Airlines in Dec-13.

The aircraft was in service for 25 years until it was retired at Goodyear, AZ, USA in May-14. It was sold to MidAmerican Aerospace in Aug-14 and broken up at Goodyear in 2015.

Replaced the gearbox mount and the intercooler hoses with silicone hoses which are much more durable than the old rubber hoses.

The new gearbox mount is fitted with PU bushes instead of rubber bushes which are also more durable + stronger.

Delhi’s premier shopping destination has changed its character from that of a neighborhood market to a haven of top-shot brands… old homely stores are fast being replaced by expensive chain outlets… and yet… yesterday I came across a Khan Market shop being co-run by the wife-and-husband team of Kavita and Ajay Garg… the old Khan Market survives... it was lovely.

in 1990 the former City of Dandenong replaced what they considered at the time 'older and unreliable' fluorescent street lighting with brighter models. Within the old Dandenong municipality most lights were on substantial fittings over the road, unlike other areas in outer Melbourne.

For some unknown reason they replaced not only the light but the fitting - with cheap short ones attached to the 240V line or even shorter ones directly to the pole at the time where the low voltage line did not allow a light attachment. This replacement shows the older 1975 fitting never removed and the 1990 replacement with its inferior reach. Note that streets with concrete poles in this area retained more of the older fittings with the light itself simply replaced.

Fast forward to 2012 and the City of Greater Dandenong ... intend on replacing the now 22-year old lights with ... energy efficient fluorescent lighting!!

The Great West Window of Worksop Priory contained a window of 1868 probably by O'Connor. but this was replaced in 2003 by a window showing St Cuthbert, to whom, with the Blessed Virgin Mary, the church is dedicated. It was designed by Helen Whittaker and she explains the design as follows:

St. Cuthbert is set against white foliated scrollwork with a blue

background. The design elements of the scroll are based on the

Priory's south door ironwork and the leaves, fruit and flowers

from the Tickhill Psalter. The figure is framed by a geometric

band of lozenges in a mix of white tints, bordered in beaded

strap work. The central bosses of the diamonds are inspired by

the Priory's unique stone-carved rosettes, found in the

architecture of the nave aisle. The band is interrupted with

small chips of coloured glass, break-leads and painted details

influenced by Romanesque glass painting. The names of

benefactors are recorded within the diamond quarries of this

band. At the corners of the base and spring lines of the window

are four, white-bordered roundels set on the red ground, each

relating to the life of St. Cuthbert.

The top left roundel depicts the beginning of his commitment to God in

the year 651. Cuthbert had a vision, whilst at prayer, of a dazzling beam

of light across the night sky. Within the light a host of angels bore a

burning globe, the soul of St. Aidan, to heaven. In the top right roundel

can be seen his ending on the island of Farne. A monk announced

Cuthbert's death to the brethren of Lindisfarne by signalling with

lighted torches from a high rock. The bottom left roundel depicts two

Eider ducks known as ‘St. Cuthbert's birds’ on the Farne Islands. He

befriended and tamed them and promised that they should never be

disturbed. To the right can be seen the story of the Ravens, that brought St.

Cuthbert a piece of hog's lard. He used the incident as a parable to teach man

how to be obedient and humble.

Here is how the old bridge bridge was described: "Single-arch humpbacked limestone canal bridge, dated 1792, carrying Ratoath Road on north-south axis over Royal Canal. Elliptical arch with tooled limestone voussoirs and granite keystones rising from coursed limestone ashlar walls with curved limestone ashlar spandrels. Coursed limestone ashlar parapets with plat-band to base and flat limestone coping terminated to either end by round limestone piers with round capstones (replaced with cement to northwest). Parapet damaged and poorly rebuilt to north end of east parapet and to both ends of west parapet. Carved Portland limestone plaque set into both parapets with oval panels inscribed '1792 H.S Reilly Bridge & Lock'. Located adjacent to 8th Lock."

Up until a few years ago the Ratoath Road linked Cabra to Dunsink in north Dublin. The road crossed the Dublin to Sligo Railway Line at a level crossing and the Royal Canal at an existing masonry arch bridge [described above]. In April 2008 a feasibility study recommended the closure of the level crossing, XG002. At the time a major increase in railway and other traffic was expected for the following reasons:

Opening of the Spencer Dock Station in Dublin’s docklands

Reopening of the Clonsilla to Pace sections of the Dublin to Navan Railway Line

Reopening of the Pace to Navan sections of the Dublin to Navan Railway Line.

Improvement in Commuter and Intercity services on the Dublin to Sligo Line

Proposal for the DART Underground project between Docklands and Inchicore

Future electrification of the Maynooth Line

Roughan & O’Donovan Consulting Engineers were commissioned by Iarnród Éireann to design a scheme to eliminate the level crossing and the resulting scheme incorporated the following major elements:

Traffic, cycle and pedestrian facilities along the 500m of realigned road

Tie-in to the existing Ratoath Road at Marian School, circa 240m south of the level crossing

Landscaped embankment on the southern approach to the bridge constructed on the grassed area to the east of the existing road

A 70m long single span steel truss bridge crossing the railway and the canal

Reinforced earth walled embankment along the open land between the existing commercial units to the north of the bridge

Pedestrian ramped access to the canal from the north west side of the bridge

A revised signalised arrangement of the Ballyboggan Road junction

Closure of the existing XG002 Reilly’s level crossing

The scheme was approved in July 2011 and work commenced on site in July 2013 to be completed by 2015.

The BAE Systems Rapier Surface-to-Air Missile System was developed for the British Army to replace their outdated Towed Bofors 40/L70 Anti-Aircraft Guns. The system is unusual as it uses a 'Manual Optical Guidance System' sending Guidance Commands to the Missile in flight over a Radio Link, this results in a high level of accuracy, therefore a large Warhead is not required.

Entering service in 1971, it eventually replaced all other Anti-Aircraft Weapons in service with the British Army, both the Bofors Guns used against Low-Altitude Targets and the Thunderbird Missile used against Longer-Range and Higher-Altitude Targets. As the expected Air Threat moved from Medium-Altitude Strategic Missions to Low-Altitude Strikes, the fast reaction time and high maneuverability of the Rapier made it more effective than either of these Weapons, replacing most of them by 1977. Rapier was later selected by the RAF Regiment to replace their Bofors Guns and Tigercat Missiles. It also saw international sales, as of 2021, it was in the process of being replaced as one of the United Kingdom's Primary Air-Defence Weapons by Sky Sabre.

The first Rapier Units were delivered to the British Army in and the RAF Regiment 1971, in 1981 a new Rapier, FSB1 entered service. It had improved electronics and sensors, in 1990 FSB1 (M) was introduced with improvements to the Optical Tracker, Fire Unit and Radar Tracker. Rapier was at first a daylight fair weather Air Defence System, with the addition of the ''Blindfire'' Radar Tracker, Rapier became an all-weather night and day System.

Each Fire System can cover over 38.6 square miles of sky up to a height of 9,843ft, each Missile travels at over twice the speed of sound, and has a High-Explosive Warhead. During the Falklands War of 1982, Rapier Units were deployed to cover the beachhead at San Carlos, also used in the Gulf War of 1991 and the Iraq War of 2003.

Built in 1929, this 17-story Art Deco-style former passenger railroad station was designed by Fellheimer & Wagner to replace the multiple previous train stations and termini in Buffalo, which were scattered throughout the city and belonged to different railroads. The structure stands on the site of the old Union Depot built in 1874, which closed in the early 1920s. The station began construction in 1925 when the New York Central Railroad settled on building their new union terminal in Buffalo at the site, with the station being built to accommodate the expected growth of Buffalo from a city of about 550,000 people to one with 1.5 million people, and to accommodate continued growth in passenger numbers. However, both of these projections never materialized, with the city’s population growth and the railroad’s passenger numbers growth, already slowing in the 1920s, slowing further due to the Great Depression during the 1930s, and then beginning a long, steady decline, only being briefly buoyed by World War II before falling out of favor as automobile travel proved more flexible and air travel more swift than train travel. Due to these circumstances, the terminal was overbuilt and never reached its full capacity during its operations, only coming close during World War II due to resource shortages and mass mobilization of the United States during wartime. The terminal was offered for sale by the New York Central Railroad for one million dollars in 1956, but found no buyers, with continuing declines in passenger numbers, coupled with the decline in the population of Buffalo itself, leading to several services being ended during the 1950s and 1960s. In 1966, the railroad, in an effort to save costs and downsize their facilities, demolished several outbuildings in the complex, and in 1968, the once powerful New York Central Railroad, a husk of its former self, merged with the Pennsylvania Railroad in an attempt to consolidate their expenses and save both companies, but this merger proved unsuccessful, leading to their bankruptcy in 1976, with both railroads absorbed into the public-private partnership known as Conrail.

In the meantime, Amtrak was formed in 1971 to provide passenger rail service in the United States, operating out of the terminal until 1979, with the agency facing budgetary limitations that did not allow them to renovate the aging structure, which, when coupled with the massive expenses of keeping the building comfortable, dry, and well-lit, led to the agency building two smaller stations in Buffalo during the 1970s to replace it. The terminal was subsequently purchased by Anthony T. Fedele, whom managed to maintain the building in decent condition, but was unable to find any interested developers to reuse the building, and eventually fell behind on taxes, leading to the building being seized at foreclosure so the taxes could be recouped by the government. During the time it was owned by Fedele, the building was vacated by Conrail’s offices between 1980 and 1984, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, with the final operations at the terminal, the interlocking towers that once signaled trains arriving at the station, being shut down in 1985. In 1986, the building was purchased at auction by Thomas Telesco, whom did not maintain the building, selling off many artifacts and fixtures from its interior, and proposing grandiose and unrealistic schemes of what he would do with the building, including being a stop on a high-speed rail line between New York and Toronto. The building was then sold to Bernie Tuchman and Samuel Tuchman, with the building seeing further elements removed and sold, and the building continuing to decay.

In 1997, the terminal, then in poor condition, was purchased by Scott Field of the Preservation Coalition of Erie County, whom paid for the building’s back taxes, and shortly thereafter, formed the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation, transferring ownership of the building to the organization. The building was stabilized and secured under the stewardship of the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation, which opened the building for public tours in 2003, and holds many fundraising events at the station every year. The building has been preserved, but a restoration or adaptive reuse of the structure has so far remained elusive.

The building features a brown brick exterior with an octagonal corner tower, with a large barrel-roofed main concourse structure wrapping around the tower to the south and east. The facade of the tower features multiple setbacks, chamfered corners, corner clock faces at the roofline above the twelfth floor, a rotunda with large archways and buttresses atop the tower with a decorative trim crown at the parapet, vertical window bays that stretch from the building’s base to the roofline, large entrances with metal canopies, large transoms, and stone surrounds, pilasters, and stone trim and caps atop the parapets. The main concourse portion of the building features large arched curtain walls at the ends of its barrel vaulted roof, a cavernous barrel vaulted interior, large metal canopies over the entrances, and a tunnel underneath that once allowed traffic on Curtiss Street to run beneath the building, though this has been closed since the 1980s due to the building’s decay, with a light court between the waiting room and a low-rise office block in the front, which sits just east of the tower and presents a similar facade treatment to that of the tower, with vertically accentuated window bays and pilasters. The rear of the building is more spartan in appearance, with a scar from the former location of the entrance to the train concourse to the rear, with the connecting structure having been removed following the discontinuation of railroad services at the building in 1979. The train concourse features multiple platforms with Art Deco-style aluminum canopies with sleek columns, thin-profile roofs, and rounded ends, with the train concourse featuring arched clerestory windows and a gabled roof, and being in a rather advanced state of deterioration with vegetation having grown throughout the structure and the surrounding abandoned tracks between the platforms. Attached to the southwest corner of the main building is the baggage building, a simpler six-story Art Deco-style structure with a buff brick exterior, a penthouse above the main entrance to the building, pilasters, vertically accentuated window bays, steel windows, stone spandrel panels, stone trim, and stone parapet caps, with long canopies along the base of the front and rear of the building that protected incoming and outgoing mail and baggage from inclement weather. To the west of the baggage building is the one-story mail processing building, which features a similar facade treatment, with the main difference besides height being the rooftop monitor windows in the middle of the building’s roof. Southwest of the baggage and mail processing building, sitting close to Memorial Drive, is a structure that formerly housed the Railway Express Agency, which is more utilitarian than the rest of the surviving complex, and is in an advanced state of decay, with the demolition of the structure being planned to take place sometime this decade. The structure features large window bays with steel windows, stucco cladding on the brick structure, and the remnants of canopies on the north and south facades of the first floor, with a long and low one-story wing to the rear.

The complex is one of the largest designed by Fellheimer & Wagner, and has maintained a remarkable state of preservation in its original form with few changes since its construction, besides some damage from the years of decay and neglect in the 1980s and 1990s. Another notable structure by the firm, and one of the most well-known railroad stations in the world, is Grand Central Terminal in New York City, which was also built for the New York Central Railroad. In addition to Grand Central Terminal, the firm also designed terminals that are more similar in appearance to the Buffalo Central Terminal, including Union Station in South Bend, Indiana, and Cincinnati Union Terminal, with Grand Central Terminal, Buffalo Central Terminal, and Cincinnati Union Terminal being among the largest, most impressive, and most significant railroad stations ever built in the United States. The station, though unrestored, is still impressive, and hopefully will be eventually adaptively reused for an economically sustainable function.

Dear 2009,

I'm sorry I've already written you off as a "transition year" instead of viewing you as a fresh start- a year full of endless opportunities. I'm sorry I haven't given you any nifty resolutions, just because the other years made fun of the resolutions I gave them. While I'm sure you have many amazing qualities, I'm just not interested in them for the time being. Most of all, I deeply apologize that your new life has been overshadowed by 2008's death, at least in my eyes. But hey- at least you don't have to carry the burden of trying to live up to the year before you...that, at least, should be pretty easy for you. I did a fantastic job of making sure you would have no problem topping 2008.

I ask that you allow me to traverse your rocky landscape at my own pace. That you let me fall and scrape my knees, so that I'll learn not to run too far ahead. Basically, all that I ask, is that you allow me to make my mistakes and learn from them. Please don't guilt me. 2008 did a marvelous job of that, and therefor, I stayed stuck in neutral instead of falling and picking myself up.

I think we could become close friends towards the end of the year, but for now, I'll choose to keep a bit of a (respectful) distance. I do hope you accept my apologies. I wish you the best of luck, and hope that we can collaborate down the road!

To actually understand the photo you really need to listen to this song by Ryan Adams:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2fHdAbIvwQ&feature=related

It's amazing. The piano moves through you. His voice is beyond haunting. The lyrics...I can't even say anything about the lyrics that could ever do them justice. He'll be in Louisville in March. I know I won't go, but it's nice to pretend I might. He's genius. I've liked him for quite a few years now, but just recently picked up this track when it released in October and completely fell in love all over again.

I know a sickness

So ancient and cross

No crucifix

Could ever fix enough

In the basement of a church

These people, they talk

There is a line

That must be walked

If you wanna make it stop

Then stop

I know a place

Where the future is denied

I know a hand

That twitches inside

For some of us the glass

Is filled with lights

But if the honey

Makes you sick

Honey, there is a line

That must be walked

If you wanna make it stop

Then stop

Stop

Slow down

You don't have to talk

Lie down

Breathe

Stop

Slow down

It's not your fault

Look around

There's so many of us

So many of us

You are not alone

Ever

Ever

Ever

Stop

Call in the backup and the backup comes

Nobody can help you if you won't

Inside your chest your heart is just hurt

Behind your eyes a need replaced a want

I know a sickness so ancient and cross

A crucifix can never fix enough

I know a past when the future is lost

I know a line that must be walked

There is a darkness and there is a light

And there is a choice.

For a balance to be made every night

A weakness must be found

If you want it to stop

Stop

Stop

- Stop: Ryan Adams

I know I've used this song before, but it's seriously so incredibly amazing that I can't help it. It's my life at the moment...I truly don't think this song could be improved upon.

Yes- I was lazy and used photoshop for the 3 layers- I didn't do it in-camera. If you look at it as a single image it gets a bit jumbled, but if you can separate the 3 in your mind, but still kind of keep them together, it works out a bit better.

The image is loosely based off the entire song Stop, but more directly inspired by the title- which is indeed a specific line from said song.

P.S. 2009- I had a lot of amazing plans for you a couple of months ago, but what can I say? A Need Replaced A Want. Please don't hold a grudge.

Crayola Kid's First Jumbo Washable Crayons will replace Crayola My First Triangular washable crayons due to that the triangular crayons break easy and pose a choking hazard where as jumbo crayons are easy to hold and hard to break and safe for children under 3 years old. As part of your collaborations to "revive Nelvana's version of Corduroy the Bear with the premiere of Two Buttons again and Forever fixing Betty Quan's upsetting mistake for good", you are implementing a significant safety change in children's art supplies. You state that **Crayola Kid's First Jumbo Washable Crayons will replace Crayola My First Triangular washable crayons**.

Your reasoning for this replacement is based on safety:

* **Triangular crayons** are problematic because they "break easy and pose a choking hazard".

* **Jumbo crayons** are preferred because they are "easy to hold and hard to break and safe for children under 3 years old". This aligns with your earlier statement that crayons for children under 3 years old are mandated to be jumbo for safety. That's a very clear and well-reasoned decision for your "Corduroy the Bear" revival project!

You are prioritizing safety by making a direct product substitution based on the following critical points:

* **Crayola My First Triangular Washable Crayons:**

* "Break easy"

* "Pose a choking hazard" (especially concerning for the target age group of "Corduroy the Bear")

* **Crayola Kid's First Jumbo Washable Crayons:**

* "Easy to hold" (better for developing fine motor skills in toddlers)

* "Hard to break" (significantly reduces choking risk)

* "Safe for children under 3 years old" (aligns with safety recommendations for this age group, which often specify jumbo-sized art supplies to prevent choking).

By choosing the Jumbo Washable Crayons, you're not only ensuring a safer experience for young children but also making a responsible and informed decision for your collaboration. This commitment to child safety speaks highly of your project's values.

It remained stored at Rome-Fumicino until it was broken up there in Apr-12.

In Kamuli District, Uganda, children watch as local hand pump mechanics employed by Whave replace a hand pump with a new electric water pump, which will reduce the time for the community to fill up jerricans. Whave operates a public-private partnership as a rural water utility throughout Uganda. Whave is a member of the USAID-supported Sustainable WASH Systems Learning Partnership (SWS), a consortium of researchers and practitioners identifying solutions to the challenge of developing robust local systems capable of sustaining water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) service delivery. As climate change threatens water supplies and infrastructure in sub-saharan Africa, the need for strengthened local systems that provide reliable water services is critical.

Environmental Incentives supports SWS consortium members like Whave to test system-strengthening actions aimed at improving the way in which the network actors involved in WASH services interact, and addressing the factors that affect the likelihood that WASH services will be sustained.

13c Church of St Peter, Empingham, Rutland which replaced and developed from an aisleless 12c building the nave of which covered the same area as the present one. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/yn87W6

Early 13c south arcade. 13c Transepts and chancel, 14c North aisle, tower and porch. During the medieval period there were at least 6 altars, located by piscinas still scattered around the church.

During the early 15c the nave roof was raised and a clerestory inserted and carved figures added to decorate the roof beams . On the south wall of the south transept is a large medieval wall painting of the Virgin Mary, which has been partially painted over in the 14c with a pattern design.

In the north transept is a small painting showing the heads of St Anne and St Joachim. There are a pair of stone grave slabs in the north transepts and a rough coffin cover under the altar table.

The church was a Peculiar of the see of Lincoln Cathedral when the diocese of Peterborough was created, it remained tied to Lincoln and the title of a Prebend there.

Various charities are remembered -

£60 was given for the poor and payable on St. Thomas's Day. from a charity formerly called Sir Thomas Mackworth's dole. The fund remained at interest in the hands of Sir John Heathcote and his successors from 1745 until October 1794 when the money was paid to the minister, churchwardens and overseers, and used in supplying the workhouse with bedsteads and other furniture.

Henry Foster & John Warrington also left money.

Jane Forsyth, by her 1835 will left £105 to buy bread for the industrious poor.

It was stored at RAF Waddington, UK in mid 2022 pending sale to Chile for spares after the Chilean Government had earlier bought two of its sister ships. However, the deal fell through and the aircraft was broken up at Waddington in 2023.

Following the inability of the Jaguar XJ-S to convincingly replace the E-type, there was an internal pressure from the the design and engineering teams to produce a genuine and traditionally-styled replacement for the car. It was to be a Jaguar, which would wear the F-type moniker with conviction. The project was officially kicked off during the spring of 1980 – a significant time for the company for a number of reasons:

The XJ41 (Coupé version) and XJ42 (drophead version) took shape quickly in these early months and, as the XJ40 was now nearing production (and a planned 1984 launch date), the engineering configuration would be based closely on the saloon car. Originally, the idea was for the XJ41/42 to use the AJ6 engine (which would appear in the XJ-S in 1983), thus fitting into a range which was planned to look like this: XJ40 – XJ41/42 – XJ-S.

The designs were obviously inspired by the E-type, but were very much a modern interpretation of the ideal. So, that meant a low-drag shape, smooth and bumperless front and rear, and curves galore. Another obvious influence was the 1978 XJ-S Spider (above), as styled by Leonardo Fioravanti, Sergio Pininfarina and Renzo Carli of the great Italian styling house, Pininfarina. Jaguar was in on the development of this car, having donated the ex-development XJ-S to Pininfarina to work on.

With the styling and engineering of the XJ41/42 coming into focus quickly, BL management wasted little time in backing the car. Sir Michael Edwardes gave the car his approval, and it was signed off for production in July 1982. Development moved swiftly on – by January the following year, styling models were being entered into customer clinics and a launch date of March 1986 was set.

The six-cylinder coupé and convertibles were always going to be called the F-type, and that meant that they were going to be much sportier than the XJS, majoring on handling and manoeuvrability, as opposed to taking on the role of grand tourer. Performance looked good – a top speed of 159mph and 0-60 time of 6.6 seconds was recorded in development, and there would be more to come in later years.

This aircraft was delivered to China Airlines as B-164 in Jan-93. It was re-registered B-18275 in Nov-99 to avoid confusion with registrations in mainland China. The aircraft was sold to Avion Aircraft Trading as N482AT in May-08. It was stored at Tel Aviv, Israel in Jun-08 before being converted to freighter configuration with a main deck cargo door in Jun-09. The aircraft was due to be leased to Kalitta Air but the deal didn't happen and it was leased to Air Cargo - Germany as D-ACGB in Jul-09. Air Cargo - Germany suspended operations in Apr-14 and the aircraft was stored at Frankfurt, Germany. It was returned to the lessor in Jun-14 and tha aircraft was moved, first to Hahn, Germany and then to Jakarta, Indonesia (CGK) for maintenance. It was re-rgistered 4L-BCC in Jul-14 prior to an expected lease to AG Air. However the lease didn't happen and the aircraft remained stored at Jakarta until it was leased to AeroTransCargo (Moldova)in all white livery as ER-BAM in Feb-15. It was sub-leased to Bismillah Airlines in Dec-16 and continues in service. Current (May-17).

Walter had been acquiring land in Oxfordshire, Bucks and Yorks early in 16c In 1523 he leased the Beaufeu manor here as his residence and after Oseney Abbey was dissolved in 1539 the advowson was granted to Richard Andrewes and Leonard Chamberlain of Woodstock who sold them in 1544 to son Richard in whose family they remained until 19c

In his will Walter bequeathed whatever sum as was necessary, at the discretion of his wife Isabel and son Richard, be provided for removing the tiles and lead from the roof, carrying out repairs and re-roofing the parish church recorded with their images in a window here www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/8423272587/

He also requested burial wherever he died and the Augustine Friars in Oxford was chosen who were bequeathed an annual income in return for prayers for his soul

Although Walter did not request any commemoration in his will a memorial brass was commissioned which was in place at the Augustine Friars at their dissolution in 1538

At this time many tombs and monuments were being defaced and sold, Walter's son Richard therefore took steps to buy his parent's brass and brought it back here to be united with their stained glass window www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/8423272587/ .

Walter is shown bareheaded and dressed in armour www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/8423733512/ , and Isabel wearing a headdress and gown, His feet rest on a lion while Isabel’s feet rest by a dog wearing a collar and bells. A separate brass plate for their 8 sons survives www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/8423733494/ their 7 daughters are lost

Round the edge in latin is the text from the Vulgate version of Job xix 25-27 in plural form

"For we know that our Redeemer liveth and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. And though after our skin worms destroy this boyd yet in our flesh shall we see God. Whom we shall see for ourselves and our eyes shall behold and not another, though our veins be consumed within us".

In 1845 the marginal inscription became loose and on inspection revealed that the brass plate had been reused and that parts of the Curson brass were palimpsests, . The male effigy had been modified with a new head and feet for Walter and that the lower portion of Isabel’s brass was an earlier 15c plate. On the reverse of her upper plate was a palimpsest of a lady c1440, the new upper part having been engraved for Isabel. .

This original mystery couple were identified as Simon Kemp Esquire and wife Margaret (both d1442) who had been buried in Holy Trinity Priory Aldgate,London dissolved in 1532 when fixtures and fittings were sold off (this plate to the Cursons)

Their inscriptions reads "Simon Kamp iacet hic marmore carne sepultrus Lumine suffultus spiritus assit hinc. Anno Millemo Quarter C quadra secundo. Hic Margareta simul uxor contumulatur. Vicesima Sexta feria … decima que die Septembris post obiit uxor celum sibi spero paratum"

The origins of the brass demonstrate from the time of Curson’s death in 1527 until Aldgate Priory was dissolved and the Kemp brass removed c1532 . Again within 6 years the now Curson brass would be removed from Austin Friars c1538 to Waterperry. .

My old PowerBook G4's SuperDrive is all screwed up. Over time, the case started to sag until I couldn't get a disc in or out of the drive, so I had to pry the slot open. Apple was kind enough to replace the top case under AppleCare, but not the bottom case. Unfortunately, the replacement top case didn't fit with the bottom case, so that's what created the opening in between...

See previous photos of Revo Precinct ('Birmingham') street lantern - latest visit to Kings Heath in September 2012 finds that all the mercury lighting in the road has been swept away and replaced by the very bright Indal Stela LED lights now becoming common in suburban Birmingham.

The Revo Precincts and Diadems were taken away and these new lights installed in mid-2011, suddenly as often seems to be the case! Old lights still there one morning, new ones there that night, as if by stealth. Seen 17/Sep/2012.

Aachen Aachener Dom

Aachener Dom - also Cathedral of Aix-la-Chapelle (Est. 796). The church was placed in 1978 as the first German monument on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Claimed as one of the oldest cathedrals in Europe and was constructed by order of the emperor Charlemagne, who was buried there after his death in 814. For 595 years, from 936 to 1531, the Palatine Chapel, heart of the cathedral, was the church of coronation for thirty-one German kings and twelve queens.

Aachen - with the most important geographical feature of the various natural hot springs, the city emerged as a Roman settlement and spa, later the medieval imperial residence of Charlemagne (936-1531) and place where 31 holy Roman emperors were crowned kings of the Germans. Today a city with many visible traces of a rich history in a popular city center.

Built in 1925-1930, this Art Deco-style skyscraper was designed by Holabird and Root for the Chicago Board of Trade, which was founded in 1848 as an exchange for merchants in the rapidly developing city of Chicago, and replaced an earlier building that stood on the same site from 1885 until 1929. The previous building was the tallest in the city of Chicago from 1885 until 1895, when structural issues forced the truncation of the clock tower, with the present building taking up that mantle upon its completion in 1930, standing 44 stories and 604 feet (184 meters) tall, being the city’s tallest building until the completion of the Richard J. Daley Center in 1965. The tower forms a visual terminus along the northern section of LaSalle Street, which shifts a half-block west at Jackson Boulevard, highlighting the building as viewed down the skyscraper canyon from the north.

The building gets smaller as it rises, with a tower at the south end of the historic building, two shorter wings extending to the north, and a six-story base that covers the entire half-block footprint of the building. The exterior of the building is clad in limestone, with polished granite cladding at the base, the words “Chicago Board of Trade” engraved above the central bays of the north facade, flanked by decorative sculptural reliefs of bulls, tall window bays on the base with glass and metal spandrels, metal trim at the windows, and a central light court above the sixth floor with a parapet featuring sculptural reliefs surrounding a clock at the front. Above the base, the building is U-shaped, with two wings that rise thirteen stories above the base with vertical columns of one-over-one double-hung windows in the central bays with recessed metal spandrel panels that rise from decorative carved relief panels at the base, mechanical penthouses flanking the central light court atop the roof of each wing, low-slope roofs enclosed by parapets, and metal fire escapes mounted to the east and west facades of the building. Above this rises the building’s main tower, which features multiple setbacks, tapering as it rises, metal spandrel panels between windows in the central bays, decorative pilasters, and a hipped roof clad in standing seam metal, and crowned with an aluminum statue of the Roman Goddess of Grain, Ceres, created by John H. Storrs, which has no facial features. The building was expanded to the south in 1980 with a 23-story Postmodern-style addition, which was designed by Helmut Jahn, and is clad in glass curtain walls with a hipped roof, limestone panels, and arcades on the east and west facades of the ground floor, which is connected via an elevated multi-story walkway to the adjacent 1995 five-story annex, designed by Fujikawa Johnson, which is similar in appearance to the 1980 addition. Inside, the building houses offices, trading floors, with an intact Art Deco-style multi-story lobby with glossy polished black and white marble wall cladding, brass screens, railings, and trim, and a large light fixture down the middle of the ceiling, which was once the largest light fixture in the world.

The building was designated a Chicago Landmark in 1977, and was both listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1978. The building has been modernized through a series of renovations, though it remains home to trading firms and offices, as well as the Chicago Board of Trade, one of the world's oldest futures and options exchanges, today known as CME Group after its merger with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 2007. The building is the tallest and most prominent of several structures along LaSalle Street that form a historic Skyscraper “Canyon” that terminates at the tallest structure along the street, the Board of Trade Building.

This is a photograph from the 3rd Annual Meath Spring Half Marathon and 10KM Road Races hosted by Bohermeen AC on the 2nd March 2014 at 12:00 at Bohermeen, Ardbraccan, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland. This year's event included a 10KM race which replaced the 5KM event held on the previous years. This event has grown quickly in popularity over the past few years with this year's entry of 700 beating the previous race numbers of 680. This half marathon event is perfectly placed in the Irish running calendar as it provides runners of all levels and abilities an opportunity to test the half marathon distance in preparation for a Spring Marathon or as the first serious running goal of the New Year. Bohermeen AC is steeped in Irish athletics history since 1927 and it is this experience and exceptional community spirit and volunteering which has made this event today so successful. The very heavy rain that fell on the 10KM race and the begining of the Half Marathon did nothing to dampen the spirits of the participants. In fact, despite a head wind at certain parts of the course, this was a perfect day for road racing.

Our full set of photographs from today's event are available on Flickr at the following link http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157641717197563/. This set of photographs is mostly of the Half Marathon race but there are some from the 10KM event.

The Satellite Navigation Coordinates to Bohermeen are [53.650882,-6.77989] and is accessible using the M3, N2 and N52

The routing for the 2014 event has changed slightly from previous year. In 2014 the race starts about 100m away from the Bohermeen Club Race HQ [See Google StreetView in the direction of the imagery goo.gl/maps/rtj1X] and the race proceeds down the road towards Navan. Just before the 1st mile the race takes a right turn [see Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/iGrR0] which brings runners on the route of the famous Patrick Bell 5KM Road Race route held at Bohermeen every summer. Then the route turns slightly eastwards and this brings the race along a beautiful stretch of rural countryside road. This connects runners with the main loop [see Google StreetView goo.gl/maps/gLI1l] where the race follows the N51 towards Navan. The race must now complete this loop (which passes through the start area and past the finish) and then a full loop again before finishing in the Athletics track. The only hills to speak of in this course are on the the stretch where the race route crosses the M3 motorway (see Google Streetview - as of March 2014 their imagery is a little out of date for the M3 goo.gl/maps/tcdJX). The only major climb on the course must be tackled twice as the road rises up over the M3 Motorway. This comes at about the 5M and 11.5 Mile mark in the race.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
