Two things happened here. I built up part of the lower of the two radiators which exists mainly to conceal the steel rod holding the whole thing up. Secondly I drilled holes in the steel and ran the wires for the power functions and LEDs through it. This was NO fun and I will only tell the sad tale under extreme duress.

dressed for the photographer. the Ark and its builder (and uh, also its designer, a bit, i.e., me), Henry Kendall, were featured in the December 2009 issue of Our State magazine. Our State is uh North Carolina.
the Ark is still at Henry's shop in Greensboro. I need to go get it and begin the monumental task of fitting it out. Henry has done his part.
Genesis 7
[1] Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation. [2] Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals, the male and his mate, and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male and his mate, [3] and seven pairs of the birds of the heavens also, male and female, to keep their offspring alive on the face of all the earth. [4] For in seven days I will send rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living thing that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground.” [5] And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
[6] Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth. [7] And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him went into the ark to escape the waters of the flood. [8] Of clean animals, and of animals that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground, [9] two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah, as God had commanded Noah. [10] And after seven days the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
[11] In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened. [12] And rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights. [13] On the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem and Ham and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them entered the ark, [14] they and every beast, according to its kind, and all the livestock according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, according to its kind, and every bird, according to its kind, every winged creature. [15] They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life. [16] And those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him. And the LORD shut him in.
[17] The flood continued forty days on the earth. The waters increased and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. [18] The waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the face of the waters. [19] And the waters prevailed so mightily on the earth that all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered. [20] The waters prevailed above the mountains, covering them fifteen cubits deep. [21] And all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, livestock, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all mankind. [22] Everything on the dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died. [23] He blotted out every living thing that was on the face of the ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the heavens. They were blotted out from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ark. [24] And the waters prevailed on the earth 150 days. (ESV)

An Okotan villager rendering of Toa Arker, the Self MOC of my good friend Invader39.
Hailing from the polar northern regions of the Okotan planet, Arker concerns himself with the studying of ancient artifacts and the exploration of ruins, occasionally venturing underwater on intense treasure-finding expeditions. Having grown up on bedside tales of Jarodin, Elemental Master of Magnetism, Arker yearns to follow in the mighty Toa’s footsteps someday.

With 2015 almost coming to an end, it has been a somewhat turbulent year for Singapore Airlines and its subsidiary, Singapore Airlines Cargo... Although their losses have reduced with the passenger airline experiencing growth, its their cargo subsidiary that continues to show strain as their losses stand at US$12 million, still it is better than the previous year when it was reported to be US$34 million of losses.
Whilst Singapore Airlines have long since withdrawn their Boeing 747's, Singapore Airlines Cargo remains an operator for the Jumbo Jet, so we can still admire them in Singapore Airlines colour scheme which is timeless in my view.
At one stage when Singapore Airlines was operating passenger Boeing 747-400's, they operated 43 which the last were withdrawn in 2012. Singapore Airlines Cargo operated 19 Boeing 747-400F's in its history, however 11 are currently listed in the current fleet... 10 Boeing 747-400F's are currently listed as active whilst one in the current fleet is listed as stored in Victorville.
Sierra Foxtrot Mike is currently one of 10 Boeing 747-400F's in service with Singapore Airlines Cargo, delivered new to the company in August 2003 and she is powered by 4 Pratt & Whitney PW4056 engines.

The Ark was built by Johan Huibers, a contractor from a small village in the Netherlands. In 1992, he dreamt that the waves of the ocean washed over the Netherlands during a great storm. The dream was followed by more signs, meaning he had to rebuild the Ark. However, this time the Ark is not meant to save people from a global flood as Noah did 4000 years ago, but to tell people that there is a God who loves us, and that He has a plan for our lives.
In 1992 plans to rebuild the Ark began. After researching the Bible, several other books about the Ark and DVDs and after a long time of saving money, Johan was finally ready to start in 2005. This is when the first trees came to the harbouw of Schagen. The constructing could begin. The Ark would be a smaller replica that could sail through the Netherlands. This smaller replica was 9 meters wide, 13 meters high, and 70 meters long. After one year of construction on his own, Johan started working with a few volunteers on Saturdays and his son helped every now and then to ready the Ark. Noah’s Ark opened its doors to the public in 2007. The first visitors set foot on board the on April the 30th in 2007. In the 3,5 years that followed, the small Ark berthed at various places in the Netherlands, including: Rotterdam, Zaandam, Arnhem, Drachten, Oudeschild on the island of Texel, Vianen, Harderwijk, Vlissingen etc. The Ark sailed a total of 3.5 years, visited 21 mooring places throughout the Netherlands and welcomed 600,000 visitors on board.
After 3,5 years, the small Ark transferred to another organization that would carry on with the same vision. Now the Ark team was free to focus entirely on the new project, namely the full-sized Ark. Because this was Johan Huibers’ original dream, he started working on the Ark straight away in 2009! Johan worked with a team of builders to recreate Noah’s Ark as accurately as possible. The life-sized ship opened its doors to the public in July 2012.

In 1686, Arang-khan began the construction of the citadel Kunya-ark at the western gates of Ichan-kala. The ark presented a complex multi-yard composition, containing a house for khan, the members of his family, and dignitaries. From the large numbers of constructions of the ark only several buildings of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century were preserved. Fortified gates led to the citadel. A high-cogged wall separated the ark from the neighborhood dwellings of Ichan-kala.

I am not a fan of re-posting pictures but I thought it was justified today as Ark Royal was towed out of Portsmouth this morning on her way to the breakers yard in Turkey. This picture was taken on her last visit to the clyde.
The aircraft carrier Ark Royal at Glenmallan on Loch Long, as part of her farewell tour of the UK. The road was packed with cars and people, so we decided to go further down the Loch to get a photo. I was disappointed that I couldn't get a close-up view, but really liked this with the hills in the background.
Taken in RAW, so not quite sure that I got the exposure right. Still, it's a learning curve, innit?
