MyZeil Shopping Mall 🇩🇪 (2022-08) {slideshow}
Views of the MyZeil shopping center in Frankfurt am Main, Hesse, Germany.
MyZeil is a shopping center located in the downtown area of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It is part of the Palaisquartier building complex and serves as the entrance to the Zeil shopping street. The center was officially opened on February 26, 2009, by the then-mayor of Frankfurt, Petra Roth.
The MyZeil building has six floors and features the longest freestanding indoor escalator in Europe, measuring 42 meters. The entire complex is covered by a structure made up of around 3,200 triangular glass elements and has a gross floor area of 77,000 square meters, with approximately 52,000 square meters dedicated to retail space in the lower three levels. The anchor tenants include a REWE supermarket (groceries) located in the basement, Anson's Herrenhaus (men's clothing retailer with leading fashion labels) spread over three levels, and Saturn (electronics and home appliances) occupying 7,500 square meters on the third and fourth floors. The upper levels contain a "Gastro-Boulevard" with restaurants, a Fitness First club with a high-altitude swimming pool, and a play and childcare area for children.
MyZeil was designed by architect Massimiliano Fuksas from Rome, with the structural design of the steel and glass construction handled by the engineering firm Knippers Helbig from Stuttgart. Rainwater from the nearly 6,000 square meters of roof surface is collected, cleaned, and reused in the building's water system. The construction design has some weaknesses, such as the need to protect the main entrance from falling ice and snow in winter, which led to the installation of a fixed roof over the entrance in 2013.
The shopping center has a large parking garage with 1,390 spaces on four levels, 900 of which are available to the public. It is open continuously, including on Sundays and holidays. MyZeil is well-connected to transportation, with access via the Hauptwache train station and two subway stations. The center has a total of six levels, including a REWE supermarket and the entrance to the parking garage on the lower level. The largest Saturn store in Frankfurt occupies 7,500 square meters on the third and fourth floors.

Chinese Military Drills 🇹🇼 (2022-08)
The People's Liberation Armee (PLA) has conducted military drills around Taiwan from August 4 to 7 2022. China's live-fire military exercises in waters and airspace around Taiwan have forced many passenger flights in the country's vicinity to take different routes but have not forced many cancellations of flights to and from Taiwan. This clip shows the approximate route of flight CI061 after takeoff from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) on 2022-08-07.

Taiwan Air Raid Drill 🇹🇼 (2022-07)
Footage shows an empty urban street during the air raid drill with sirens blaring.
The annual Wanan air defense exercise has been held in different areas across Taiwan between July 25-28, with civilians required to shelter in place during the drills. Air raid sirens got off at 13:30 to signal the start of the 30-minute drills. The drill this year is aimed at raising public awareness of emergency warnings to reduce the possibility of casualties and damage if air attacks do take place. Most vehicular road traffic and pedestrian movement are suspended, as it is usually done during Taiwan's air raid drills, while some people have received a text message on their phone notifying them about an air attack drill. Metro services, freeway traffic, and aircraft flights do operate normally, but disembarked passengers had to follow instructions from evacuation personnel.

Off-grid in the city 🇹🇼 (2022-04)
The layman wonders:
Why are diesel generators being used at those downtown locations for long periods of time instead of hooking up with the electrical grid?
Examples
a) Diesel generator at a building construction site operating for years.
b) Diesel generator at a festival site operating for weeks.

Applying for a national park drone operation permit 🇹🇼 (2021-10)
How to apply for a Kenting National Park 墾丁國家公園 drone operation permit?
Preparations for aerial filming (drone) at Kenting National Park as a hobbyist are as follows. Register the drone online with Civil Aeronautics Administration Drone Office of Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) of the Republic of China at https://drone.caa.gov.tw/en-US .
Select tentative locations that promise nice imagery as an advance planing of the shoot areas.
A (free) permit is required for drone operation within the park boundaries. Related information is available on the Kenting National Park website https://www.ktnp.gov.tw/ (Chinese only).
The drone operation permit application form can be downloaded from the Kenting National Park website https://www.ktnp.gov.tw/ (Chinese language only).
The filled out drone operation permit application form then needs to be mailed to the Kenting National Park headquarters. This should be done at least one week ahead of the intended park visit.
The drone operation permit will then be mailed back to you. It includes some rules as well (Chinese language only).
Besides following the National Park rules for drone operation the CAA regulations apply of course as well. See in particular the airspace query section at https://drone.caa.gov.tw/ .
Notes:
1) The national park drone operation permit application process appears to be currently available in
Chinese language only.
2) Permit application involves mailing letters back and forth instead of an online procedure.
3) Consequently, weather conditions may have changed significantly between start of the application process and actual flight operation. Strong winds and precipitation are common in this coastal region at times.
4) Information provided in this video is indicative only. Rules and regulations are subject to change. Get valid information from the related authorities directly!
