The watermill Lippholthausen (Schloßmühle Lippholthausen) in the Lippholthausen district of Lünen is a grain mill built in 1760 near the river Lippe. The watermill of the former Buddenburg noble house is a late Baroque half-timbered building, not far from the former Buddenburg Castle.
From the 14th century until 1902, the Buddenburg house was owned by the Frydag family of Buddenburg. The Frydags belong to the very old Westphalian nobles. The family is mentioned for the first time in 1198.
Around 1535, the noble family built a watermill south of Brunnenstraße and opposite Schlossallee. At the former river Henebecke a large millpond was excavated.
Afterwards, the runs of the creek Henebecke, Sadbecke, Wilbecke and Seltenbecke were diverted so that they flowed directly into the new millpond and fed it with water.
After the mill had been completed and put into operation, the farmers in the area of the thirlage "Buddenburg Mahlzwang" had to come to the castle mill to have their grain ground.
Nothing remains of the mill built at the beginning of the 16th century. However, the current mill building already has a considerable number of years on the hump: It was built in 1760 by Wessel Giesbert von Frydag.
In 1903, Haus Buddenburg and the mill were inherited by the Rüxleben family. The latter finally sold the property to the city of Lünen in 1913. Until 1930 grain was ground in the castle mill.
The old mill pond above the castle mill is no longer present, it was filled in 1938 during the construction of the Lippewerk. A loss for trippers, they could sail around on the pond with paddle boats.
Until the end of the 1970s, the House of Buddenburg, which also included the castle mill, stood in the district of Lippholthausen, now part of Lünen.
The Mühlenfreunde Lippholthausen e. V. restored and maintains the mill, which currently serves as an excursion restaurant and can also be used for weddings. It was placed under monument protection in 1985.
Another look at the eclectic mix of EMDs hanging out at the Transportation Technology Center near Pueblo, CO.
A quick rundown of what's in this shot. First off, there's EMD 9500, 9502, and 9503, the three remaining SD60MACs. Probably won't see a lot of photos of these in 2020. Also, there's EMD 1207 and 4223, SD70ACes in a pretty cool scheme. Lastly, and most unfortunately positioned, Metrolink 923, an EMD F125, a Tier 4-compliant passenger locomotive.
Technology and I have changed over the past couple of years so I reprocessed some photos that I took in 07/2018. Big difference. Less noise. More control over the color. Sharper, cleaner image.
Der Klatschmohn ist seit der Jungsteinzeit bei uns zuhause
-
Wenn sich die zarten Blütenblätter des Klatschmohns aus der Knospenhülle entfalten, scheinen sie wie aus hauchdünnem, knittrigen Papier. Die einzelne Blüte hält nur zwei bis drei Tage, bevor sie verwelkt.

Der Artname rhoeas des Klatschmohns stammt vom griechischen „rhoia“ für „fließen“ und deutet ebenfalls auf dem austretenden Milchsaft. Mohn war der griechischen Fruchtbarkeitsgöttin Demeter geweiht und Brautpaare wurden deshalb mit Mohnblüten überschüttet.
In der christlichen Bildsprache wiederum steht Klatschmohn zusammen mit reifen Getreideähren für das Blut und den Leib Christi. Der deutsche Name Klatschmohn schließlich soll vom Aneinanderklatschen der Blüten bei Wind und Regen kommen – aber welche Blüten tun das nicht?

“Photography is the power of observation, not the application of technology.”

The biggest security risk in any system is the user.
"Hundreds of Westminster insiders were added to - and then deleted from - a WhatsApp group set up by shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick to promote his London Marathon run".
In this day and age there should be minimum level of competence with technology to gain access to any position of power or trust, (especially after the U.S "signal app" fiasco).
(As we old techies used to say the problem is "BTKAC" between the keyboard and chair).
The BBC has been told Jenrick is not referring himself to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), which investigates data breaches. (What a surprise!).

Possibly the largest semaphore operation remaining on the Indian metre gauge lines is Pilibhit East Signal Box. Located at the "business" end of the station and controlling routes out to Tanakpur, Mailani Junction and Shajahanpur, as well as a level crossing and access to the carriage sidings and maintenance area, there's rarely an idle moment during the day.
In comparison to boxes in the UK these are pretty rudimentary regards additional technology and what you see is pretty well what you get. Throwing the levers takes some effort too and here the signalman is giving some welly (or rather sandal) returning lever 56 to its normal position.
Catch this while you can - the scene will change forever in a few months when gauge conversion starts in earnest.

Absolutely love the way this turned out. It's inspired by this concept art from Elysium. Something I've wanted to do for quite a while now. Not quite done yet as I need to add to the interior cargo area and make some actual cargo for it, but I wanted to get this photo before the decals aged or something happened to them. This is also the first time I've been able to get a white background to look good in a long time! XD

I was visiting a small museum (not a store) of movie & television vintage props & related equipment, etc. This NBC Studios fresnel light (from the 1950’s & 60’s & probably later) was, most likely. used on the Johnny Carson "Tonight" Show & a few others, from that time period. The multi-faceted & ringed fresnel lens in this light is widely used in movies & television as an accurate & adjustable light source. Much larger fresnel lenses were also used in lighthouses & could be seen for very great distances.
