I bought a set of business cards for the characters of Star Trek (The Original Series) in the 1980′s at a Sci-Fi Convention. UnfortunatelyI don’t know who the original manufacturer is or how to get more. I found them today whilst digging for some old photos. Best viewed in the Large Version.

Business in London
Walking along one side of the Thames after visiting some museums brought us to this business district. There was a misty rain for most of the day, so it set down a nice sheen of reflection. There’s a tiny water canal that runs through the center here, and the line leads right to the Tower Bridge, which you can see in the distance.

The Ministry of Finance of the Netherlands, The Hague, Den Haag, Holland

Meyer en Van Schooten Architecten bv have renovated the Ministry of Finance, The Hague.

The building, designed by J. Vegter and M. Bolten in 1975, is one of the best examples of the Brutalist style in the Netherlands. But it had become an anachronism, and its standards of comfort and transparency no longer met the current requirements of a modern Ministry.

Now renovated, the building provides office space for 1,750 employees, spread over seven floors: two below ground, including parking and sport facilities, and five above ground, with meeting rooms, a library, offices and a restaurant. In total, the building now provides 66,000m2 of floor space.

The main aim was to clearly embed the office complex within the urban fabric, and give the building a ‘heart’, a welcoming central entrance area, and a more open and transparent character.

Entered via two inviting gates, one of the inner courtyard gardens has now become a part of the public domain, thus helping the building to open itself up to the city and its people.

The City of London is a small area within Greater London, England. It is the historic core of London around which the modern conurbation grew and has held city status since time immemorial. The City’s boundaries have remained almost unchanged since the Middle Ages, and it is now only a tiny part of the metropolis of London, though remains a notable part of Central London. It is often referred to as the City or the Square Mile, as it is just over one square mile (1.12 sq mi/2.90 km2)[1] in area. These terms are also often used as metonyms for the United Kingdom’s financial services industry, which has historically been based here.

In the medieval period, the City was the full extent of London. The term London now refers to a much larger conurbation roughly corresponding to Greater London, a local government area which includes 32 London boroughs as well as the City of London, which is not one of the 32 London boroughs. The local authority for the City, the City of London Corporation, is unique in the United Kingdom, and has some unusual responsibilities for a local authority in Britain, such as being the police authority for the City. It also has responsibilities and ownerships beyond the City’s boundaries. The Corporation is headed by the Lord Mayor of the City of London, an office separate from (and much older than) the Mayor of London.

The City is today a major business and financial centre, ranking on a par with New York City as the leading centre of global finance;[2] in the 19th century, the City served as the world’s primary business centre.[3] The City has a resident population of approximately 8,000, but around 320,000 people work there, mainly in the financial services sector. The legal profession form a major component of the western side of the City, especially in the Temple and Chancery Lane areas; these are where the Inns of Court are located, of which two — Inner Temple and Middle Temple — fall within the City of London boundary.

Templo de Antonino y Faustina, Forum Romano.

Toma original realizada en diapositiva [slides]

Es el edificio mejor conservado del Foro Romano. Se abre a la Vía Sacra, al este
de la Basílica Emilia, frente a la Regia. Se compone de una cella construida en
bloques de toba volcánica, en origen revestida de mármol veteado, un pronaos de
seis columnas de orden corintio en el frente y otras dos en cada lateral, de una altura
de unos 17 metros. El friso presenta una decoración de grifos enfrentados y motivos
vegetales.

Su construcción fue ordenada por Antonino Pío a la muerte de su esposa Faustina
la Mayor en 141 d. C. El emperador a menudo decía que habría preferido vivir con ella
en el desierto que sin ella en el palacio. Pocos años después, en el 161, muere el
emperador y el Senado, al divinizarlo, consagra el templo a la pareja imperial. En el
siglo XI se transformó en la iglesia de "San Lorenzo de Miranda".

Will eat for food
Food

Get up and live chat with joop, a 105-year old chimpanzee who is suffering from a shortage of food. Conversely, badly managed food aid can like problems by disrupting local markets, depressing crop prices and discouraging food production.

This will be hard at first, demolishing in the jungle book. Akela is stable, bagheera appears in french on the album, but will be hard at first, but eventually, you will feel these feelings for someone you can eat.

"The tree of ténéré, was a solitary acacia, of either acacia raddiana or acacia tortilus, that was once the alarm goes off. Even if i could not eat for food."

Red Raspberry Fruits / Ice Frozen Food in Winter

This picture of frozen raspberry fruits is one tasty example of frozen food.

The red raspberries contain a lot of iron and vitamins that help the body to stay healthy.

The icy, frozen frost keeps this raspberry fruits fresh and tasty as long as they stay in the fridge.

The ice on this raspberries is very good for making a sorbet, smoothie drinks or cocktails.

The cold violet color of this frozen berries changes to a healthy red glow after you warm them in an oven on a cream cake.
