A photo demonstrating the rule of thirds, and the pleasing lines they produce. I like how the tracks lead into the tunnel, thus, into the beyond. Forgive my foolish mind, I am still not coffeed up yet!
OH MY GOD!!! I just saw this photo for the first time in YEARS. I had to share my embarrassment ;)
My hair was done by my mom (hence the POOF) for years, and the outfit choice was done by my dad, hence the picnic table cloth I seem to be wearing ;) hahaha.
It's amazing what changes? I was 3 feet tall and 11 pounds and had freckles and blonde hair! AH!
Hope you find this as funny as i did ;)
The richness of Hasselt's past as the capital of genever lives on in the contemporary quality of the Hasselt 'witteke', the Genever museum, confréries and culinary delights, and the Hasselt Genever festivities. Every year during the third weekend of October, all the inhabitants of Hasselt celebrate their rich tradition during one of the largest and most exuberant city festivals in the country. Music, dance, street theatre, a waiter's run and a city fountain whose water turns into genever, a museum that distills genever, parades and exhibitions, a culinary village and jazz, enthronements and genever in all tastes and colors.
A third, even wider view of Newcastle as seen from the "Get Carter" Car Park, Gateshead. The cross-Tyne High Level Bridge, complete with Regional Railways Class 156 DMU is to the far left of the picture. (22nd September 1997)
Third trimester started 2 days ago. Have I mentioned that in about 3 months I'll have a new model to take photos of?
Missing Minneapolis. Found this while searching for another photo on a backup drive. Taken last Halloween in downtown Minneapolis just after snapping this one. surlygrrrl, i'm counting on you to correct me if I have the location wrong. :)
The Third Silesian Uprising was the last and largest and longest of the three uprisings.
The Third Silesian Uprising began on May 2–3, 1921, with Polish destruction of German rail bridges in order to thwart immediate German measures to suppress the uprising. A particular concern was to prevent a recurrence of the many acts of violence that had been perpetrated against the populace by German paramilitary groups, the Freikorps, which had ostensibly been created to support the German border-protection police. The Freikorps comprised mostly volunteers and demobilised German soldiers.
After an initial success of the insurgents, taking over a large portion of the area of Upper Silesia, the German Grenzschutz several times resisted the attacks of Wojciech Korfanty's Polish troops, some cases in cooperation with British and Italian troops. An attempt on the part of the British troops to take steps against the Polish forces was prevented by General Jules Gratier, the French commander-in-chief of the Allied troops. Eventually, the insurgents kept most of territory they had won, including the local industrial district. They proved that they could mobilize large amounts local support, while the German forces based outside Silesia were barred from taking an active part in the conflict.
Twelve days after the outbreak of the insurrection Korfanty offered to take his troops behind a line of demarcation (the "Korfanty Line"), conditional upon the released territory not being re-occupied by German forces, but by Allied troops. It was not, however, until July 1 that the British troops arrived in Upper Silesia and began to advance in company with those of the other Allies towards the former frontier. Simultaneously with this advance the 'Inter-Allied Commission' pronounced a general amnesty for the illegal actions committed during the insurrection, with the exception of acts of revenge and cruelty. The German Grenzschutz was withdrawn and disbanded.
Another picture from that lighthouse in England. hope you'll like it.

By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and
Third by experience, which is the bitterest.

This is a view from the top floor of the Piquette Avenue Model T Museum looking to the northwest. The four 15-story connected wings of the former General Motors headquarters, designed by Albert Kahn and opened in 1923, are seen in the background. The complex is now Cadillac Place. Beyond is the 30-story Art Deco tower of the Fisher Building, opened in 1928. The building contains the 2089 seat Fisher Theater, where I have twice ushered.
These two buildings are the heart of the New Center area of Detroit, and the Detroit Amtrak station is also located here.
Dungeness is a headland on the coast of Kent, England, formed largely of a shingle beach in the form of a cuspate foreland. It shelters a large area of low-lying land, Romney Marsh. Dungeness is also the name of the power station and a few other nearby buildings near the beach, and of an important ecological site at the same location.
Dungeness is one of the largest expanses of shingle in the world. It is of international conservation importance for its geomorphology, plant and invertebrate communities and birdlife. This is recognised and protected mostly through its conservation designations as a National Nature Reserve (NNR), a Special Protection Area (SPA), a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and part of the Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) of Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay.
There is a remarkable variety of wildlife living at Dungeness, with over 600 different types of plant: a third of all those found in Britain. It is one of the best places in Britain to find insects such as moths, bees and beetles, and spiders; many of these are very rare, some found nowhere else in Britain.
The short-haired bumblebee, Bombus subterraneus, was last found in the UK in 1988, but has survived in New Zealand after being shipped there more than 100 years ago. It is to be reintroduced at Dungeness. It is planned that the first bees will be introduced in the spring of 2010.
The flooded gravel pits on Denge Beach, both brackish and fresh water, provide an important refuge for many migratory and coastal bird species. The RSPB has a bird sanctuary there and every year thousands of bird watchers descend on the peninsula to catch a glimpse of a rare bird from the bird observatory.
One of the most remarkable features of the site is an area known as 'the patch' or, by anglers, as 'the boil'. The waste hot water and sewage from the Dungeness nuclear power stations are pumped into the sea through two outfall pipes, enriching the biological productivity of the sea bed and attracting seabirds from miles around.
Beach fishing is popular at Dungeness, with the area being a nationally recognised cod fishing venue in the winter.
The name Dungeness derives from Old Norse nes: "headland", with the first part probably connected with the nearby Denge Marsh. Popular etymology ascribes a French origin to the toponym, giving an interpretation as "dangerous nose".
