Same tractor, different angle. Steel wheels were the norm until the 1940's. After the war, farmers discovered rubber tires and they caught on quickly.

Breakfast with the Chief
By Dave Palmer
LOS ANGELES — Society of American Military Engineers posts from Los Angeles, Orange County and the Inland Empire held their 26th annual joint breakfast meeting Jan. 13. The keynote speaker currently serves as the Acting Chief of Engineers and Commanding General for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Los Angeles District Commander Col. Mark Toy introduced Maj. Gen. Merdith W.B. (Bo) Temple to more than 100 SAME members. He mentioned that, among the general's many accomplishments, he holds the distinction of being the only individual to ever hold all four general officer billets at USACE headquarters. Once a permanent Chief is named, Temple will retire with 37 years-of-service.
For his remarks, Temple took the opportunity to discuss where the Corps and the Army find themselves today and where they are headed.
“As fiscal year 2011 came to an end, the Corps was wrapping up an unprecedented period of construction and project execution,” said Temple. “For example, over the past five years, we provided $12 billion in BRAC-related (Base Realignment and Closure) construction; $7 billion of American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (stimulus) work in both military and civil works programs; and about $14 billion of Gulf Coast recovery work!”
And, 2011 brought roughly three times the disaster declarations of a normal year.
“USACE responded to devastating tornadoes and severe spring storms, as well as hurricanes and tropical storms, under the National Response Framework in support of FEMA,” said Temple. “We are working now with the $1.7 billion appropriated supplement to the Corps’ budget in disaster relief to make emergency repairs before the 2012 flood season is upon us.”
For the future the general discussed the continuing fiscal challenges the Nation faces.
“We are operating in a more complex, less certain, resource-constrained environment which requires a more focused, systems-based approach and more collaboration to develop and deliver safe, quality engineering solutions on time, at or below cost, to our customers, stakeholders and partners.”
Even with fiscal challenges, locally, the District will benefit from Obama administration programs like America’s Great Outdoors and the new Urban Waters Federal Partnership which selected the Los Angeles River Watershed as one of seven pilot locations to enhance existing work like the Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan.
“The Los Angeles District is a strong supporter of revitalizing the river, with several on-going studies and potential projects that aim to restore riverside habitat, increase public access to the river and promote recreational opportunities,” said Temple.
Military construction projects also hold great promise for the region.
“South Pacific Division’s FY 12 budget is about $1.2 billion, which is about $200 million more than last year, with two significant MILCON projects at Fort Irwin accounting for most of that increase," said Temple. "Another highlight is that Los Angeles District estimates that they will award more than $200 million to small businesses in FY 12.”
- "hello kitty 2 (same kitty as the prior pic)" - postdated pic taken 3 days ago, Jul-19 Sunday.
2 kittehs were hanging around at the nasi brekky place we were at on the Sunday morning.
Both were "singing" to the morning and after our food, saw them and I casually said something like "hello darlings" to both and this femme cutey came trotting towards us and lay on the floor in front of me like that... She looked manja yet with a "strong" personality imo as she didn't come to rub my legs but keeping herself at a close distance, awaiting for 1 of us to approach and sayang her. Yep she got it from 1 of my male pals around... such a friendly approachable being... hope to see you soon!

Same object, almost same development, but I used the Ha image as Luminance. Looks a bit more quiet, isn't it? Fancy stars are a matter of taste, I know :-)
Same details as the B & W version, but this is untouched. I'm not a big fan of the shadows in the foreground, but as a learning curve, and the 2nd attempt, here once again is some long exposure work taken with a Parweld shade 8 welding screen. 79 seconds, with a little less light intrusion, but still good fun.
same scene as the previous, except different camera/film & stopped down to reveal the fog itself, pouring in from the coast...
and OMG, it's finally election day!! i'm heading straight to the polls right when they open at 7am, can't wait to cast my vote for Barack Obama (and against Prop 8)!!!
if you can, GO VOTE!!
yes we can!!
Goal: To attract families in the neighborhood to the Carnival and VBS events.
Audience: Families with children (up to 10 years old for VBS), although this will be sent to all residents, and everyone is welcome at the carnival. The main neighborhood is an upper middle class suburb, with lots of highly educated young families.
Direction: The challenge was to promote these two events simultenously. The Carnival is sort of the kickoff to the VBS. The goal was to keep a unified look to the piece, and have a fun, and kid friendly message. The VBS logo is from the company who produced the materials, a bit modified by me. The Carnival logo is one I created for the same event last year, with a bit different color scheme and layout. The event was a big success last year, and the hope is that using the same look will get a positive response, especially since it is on the church property this year and not at the park like last year. That continuity is the thinking behind "3rd annual" as well. Also, the word "FREE" was not the main selling point as it has been in the past for these events. The thinking is that the audience may not respond as strongly to something that is free, especially if that suggests that it is low quality. It is a bit of a change, so we will see. The event will be free and it will say it is free on the other side, just not as the headline. Comments about that are welcome.
Project: Postcard mailing (8.5 x 5.5 inches), and general branding for Carnival & VBS event. The other side of the postcard will have more details.
Other important info: I am very rushed on this project, so I wanted to get this concept up quick for feedback. I know there are some refinements to the execution that really need attention, but I am mainly looking for feedback on the concept and how this communicates at this point. Thanks!

There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One, to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other, to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days, staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow, a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left, I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left, how many times did I depend too much on her, doubt her, envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However, I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me, a guy filled with ambiguous, unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

Omodos is located about 42 kilometres north-west of the city of Limassol, in the geographical region of the wine-making villages. It is built near the west bank of the Cha-potami river. It is made up of 100 year old houses, which until this day are kept the same as when they were first built. These old houses themselves are of considerable interest from an architectural point of view, both externally and internally. However, museums explaining the traditional culture of the village are open to the public.
The ornament and true pride & joy of Omodos is the Monastery of the Holy and Life-giving Cross, built at the heart of the community. It rises majestically and with its imposing presence it becomes a significant part of Cyprus's cultural heritage. The Monastery of the Holy Cross is one of the oldest and most historic monasteries of the island. Some believe the village was founded after the building of the monastery.
According to tradition, the Monastery was established before St. Helen's arrival in Cyprus in 327 AD. The exact date of establishment is unknown. Various historians of Cyprus such as Neofytos Rodinos, the Russian monk and traveller Barsky, the Dean Kyprianos and others, refer to St. Helen's visit to Cyprus and to the fact that she left a part of the Holy Rope and the Holy Rood in the Monastery. This rope, with which the Romans bound Christ to the Cross, is described as red coloured and "stained by the blood of Christ".
After several miracles by the Cross, the Monastery gained substantial reputation and evolved to a great place of adoration. The historical Monastery of Omodos has gone through various phases as the aeons went by. During the harsh centuries of Turkish domination, the Monastery managed to sustain itself and achieve great things. Around 1700 it secured a sultan's "firman" (decree) of impunity and immunity. In 1757 water was transferred to the monastery and the cistern and fountain, found in the south-west end of the mon
