Rear ends/ chain stays brazed. Here I'm checking the alignment and spacing before adding the seat stays.
I had no idea how cool infrared lenses looked, this one had an almost holographic quality in person. I believe it is made from germanium.

A view taken from Station Road, Mochdre in February 1984 where a brace of Metro-Cammell 2-car units was recorded working the BR Table 83 12:55 Llandudno Junction to Crewe. The train is running on the new track bed alignment installed to cater for the construction of the Landdulas to Glan Conwy [Colwyn By-Pass] section of the A55 North Wales Expressway.

This VIS image of Olympia Undae was collected during north polar spring. The crests of the dunes and other surfaces are light colored, indicative of a frost covering.
The density of dunes and the alignments of the dune crests varies with location, controlled by the amount of available sand and the predominant winds over time. As the season changes into summertime, the dune crests will lose the frost and reveal the darker sand beneath.
Olympia Undae is a vast dune field in the north polar region of Mars. It consists of a broad sand sea or erg that partly rings the north polar cap from about 120° to 240°E longitude and 78° to 83°N latitude. The dune field covers an area of approximately 470,000 km2 (bigger than California, smaller than Texas).
Olympia Undae is the largest continuous dune field on Mars. Olympia Undae is not the only dune field near the north polar cap, several other smaller fields exist in the same latitude, but in other ranges of longitude, e.g. Abolos and Siton Undae.
Barchan and transverse dune forms are the most common. In regions with limited available sand individual barchan dunes will form, the surface beneath and between the dunes is visible. In regions with large sand supplies, the sand sheet covers the underlying surface, and dune forms are found modifying the surface of the sand sheet.
In this case transverse dunes are more common. Barchan dunes "point" down wind, transverse dunes are more linear and form parallel to the wind direction. The "square" shaped transverse dunes in Olympia Undae are due to two prevailing wind directions.

NASA’s Mars Odyssey spacecraft has spent over 15 years in orbit around Mars, circling the planet more than 71,000 times. It holds the record for longest working spacecraft at Mars. THEMIS, the IR/VIS camera system, has collected data for the entire mission and provides images covering all seasons and lighting conditions.
Over the years many features of interest have received repeated imaging, building up a suite of images covering the entire feature. From the deepest chasma to the tallest volcano, individual dunes inside craters and dune fields that encircle the north pole, channels carved by water and lava, and a variety of other feature, THEMIS has imaged them all.
For the next several months the Image of the Day will focus on the Tharsis volcanoes, the various chasmata of Valles Marineris, and the major dune fields. We hope you enjoy these images!
Sequence, phylogeny and structural analysis of Sc-KU-4.A: Amino acid sequence alignment of the Kunitz domain in Sc-KU-4 with the homologous domains of other nematode Kunitz-like inhibitors. Conserved positions are shaded; the solid lines indicate the conserved disulfide bridges, and the discontinuous line indicates the missing CysII–CysIV bridge in Sc-KU-4. B: Phylogenetic analysis showing Sc-KU-4 closes to other nematode Kunitz-like inhibitors forming a separate cluster with A. suum. C: Sc-KU-4 structure prediction based on multiple-threading alignments showing the Kunitz domain exposed on the molecular surface in a characteristic tertiary fold of three antiparallel β-strands followed by one α-helix. Cysteine residues responsible for reactive loop stabilization and glycine residues that replace CysII–CysIV are shown in gray. The discontinuous line box highlights the amino acids present in reactive loops. The P1 position is shown in green.

These images are from two very similar projects that I've just helped my friends with. They want to be able to hold bike frames on their alignment tables by the head tube. They both purchased used bench centers, and we had to make bull nose centers for them.
The fit up needed to be very close, so we were working to within a few tenths.
The other complication was that one of the centers on each set was spring loaded and utilized a rack and pinion to withdraw it... so we had to mill those rack gears.
The Östra Södermanlands Järnväg (ÖSLJ) is a heritage 600 mm gauge line southwest of Stockholm. The first section was opened on 24 Jult 1966 using the trackbed of an old SJ branchline, closed two years before, between Mariefred and Läggesta nedre.
In May 1995 the old alignment of the Norra Södermanlands Järnväg was replaced by a faster route, so the ÖSLJ started to operate the original Norra Södermanlands Järnväg between Läggesta nedre and Taxinge-Näsby as its second heritage line. At first this line kept its 1435 mm gauge, but between 2009 and 2011 it was regauged to 600 mm. Finally, the new V-shaped 600 mm heritage system was inaugurated on 25 May 2011.
Finally got a proper alignment today. We were able to get the following settings:
Front:
-2.3 degrees camber
6 degrees caster
0 toe
Rear:
-3.7 degrees camber
1/16" total toe in
It definitely drives like it's on rails now. The rear is planted very nicely during hard cornering. Yay!
Looking East from Powder House Lane along the alignment of the Heysham - M6 Link Road, which will cross these fields before bridging the West Coast Main Line railway which is visible in the distance. Behing the hedge on the right of the picture is Barley Cop Lane, the crematorium being on the other side of that road. Looking at maps of the road scheme it appears that the section of Powder House Lane on which I'm standing will be colsed with the lane diverted to ran paralell with the new road then passing under the new road alongside the railway.
This morning I observed the grand alignment of planets!
In general, alignments of planets are pretty common for us, but this year we could see a rare combination. All planets that we can see with naked eye (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) are aligned this month in the same order as they lie from the Sun.
Meanwhile, there are Uranus and Neptune in the same area of the sky I could capture as tiny tiny dots in the picture. I’m not sure Instagram would even resolve them here, but I made some captions so that you know where planets are.
Unfortunately there is no Mercury in that picture. Well, it’s kind of in the frame though, but was covered by the trees at the time of capturing. However, I observed it with naked eye later this morning.
You can spot the bright Moon between Venus and Mars, and, in my opinion, it takes a cool position in the picture because it can represent “our planet” in the sky.
If you missed the alignment this morning, you still have some time to look at it during the next few days.
The screw located behind the mirror is for rangefinder vertical alignment. It tilts the mirror forward or backward. The reflected rangefinder patch will be too high when the mirror tllts too backwards and vice versa.

I'm finally getting down to posting pictures from my Route 66 road trip in July of 2013. My wife, Theresa went with me this time.
When traveling the Mother Road, I try to drive on all alignments. Some are interesting, others not so much. This alignment south of Albuquerque I didn't find all that interesting. But at least I can say I've been on it. Albuquerque itself is one of the richest segments on Route 66 for picture opportunities. I have made two trips to Albuquerque and still not photographed everything I'd like to.

The ePHD/ADD domains of SPBP and RAI1 are conserved in evolution.(A) Alignment of the putative ePHD/ADD domain of SPBP and RAI1 in mammalia, reptiles, birds, amphibians, fishes and insect. Cysteine and histidine residues that may serve as zinc-ligands are indicated by numbers above the alignment. The long loop region between zinc ligands 2 and 3 in all species is excluded from the alignment, but indicated above. The regions encompassing the putative GATA-1 like finger and the PHD finger are indicated above, while the Loop1, Loop2 and Loop3 indicated below are loop structures generally found in PHD fingers. The conserved Tryptophan units used to select blasted sequences are indicated by arrows, while amino acids probably involved in Smith-Magenis syndrome are encircled. Two of the RAI1 sequences (A.carolinensis and L.chalumnae) are truncated in the C-terminal end probably due to sequencing errors. The threshold for shading in manually refined Clustal W sequence alignment was set to 50% using BLOSUM 62 scoring matrix. (B) Phylogenetic tree of the ePHD/ADD domains of SPBP and RAI1 proteins. The phylogenetic tree was constructed by Mega5 software using the maximum likelihood method. Numbers in the branch represents the bootstrap values. Background color coding is used to represent species which possess SPBP (blue), RAI1 (pink) and uncharacterized SPBP/RAI1 like proteins (green). The phylogenetic tree is based on selected protein sequences from representative vertebrate organisms (e.g. Homo sapiens represent Mammalia). (C) The evolutionary tree of the ePHD/ADD domains of SPBP and RAI1 proteins. The alignment of all sequences is shown in Supporting information, Figure S1 and the protein sequence accession numbers are provided in the Supporting information, Table S3.
