Taken at 1:2 magnification on a full-frame sensor with 100mm macro lens. This is a gadget for opening new CD jewel cases. You slide the edge of the case along the flat edge of the gadget. This depresses the plastic tab at left, which seesaws the metal blade upward, slicing through the plastic wrapping. How long before this gadget goes the way of the dinosaurs? How long will there be jewel cases to open?
BMW added a truncated three door hatchback of the E36 in 1994. This one is powered by the 1596 cc engine. Supplied by local dealer Chandlers or Hailsham and looks like to be still wearing its original dealer number plates.
This is truck SL028 collecting greenwaste, with a very slow compactor, this truck sat here for 20 mins compacting its load. That's why this truck is usually on garbage.
My latest desktop
Windows 7 with Rainmeter and ObjectDock,
Rainmeter is running Gingerbar and Enigma, most of both are modified in some way to make them fit in the bar.
I use the Glass Onion visual style for Win7.
Also, there are some suave icons for my ObjectDock that are not pictured, but are in some of my other desktops.

New addition to the kit.
Introducing my original ЛОМО́ LC-A that was customised with a Zebra finish in Poland. Unlike the reissued Lomography staple camera LC-A+ this horse doesn't pack the tacky replacement plastic components or mods such as double exposure switch/cable release and ISO meter above 400ISO just the easy point and shoot it was set out to be :)
This year i am going to start a blog on my Tumblr titled "Film Enthusiast Review" it's a little project i have intended starting for some time but have never got around to it.

a short...and VERY rainy visit to a former home of Nelson Mandela, in Soweto, South Africa.
Pictures were rushed, and poor... a big crowd in attendance, besides our tour group. The compact dwelling is furnished as a museum , with many photos and awards on the walls. Mr Mandela lives in a newer home, and one presumes, a much larger and more comfortable one.....he had just returned from a hospital stay when our tour group was in South Africa.
I am currently reading Mandela's autobiography "Long Walk to Freedom", finding it gripping...at the moment I am reading about his long imprisonment in the prison on Robben Island ( near Cape Town.... where we visited on the last day of our tour...I'll post photos later)
an excerpt from Wikipedia, about Soweto :
" Soweto came to the world's attention on 16 June 1976 with the Soweto Uprising, when mass protests erupted over the government's policy to enforce education in Afrikaans rather than English. Police opened fire in Orlando West on 10,000 students marching from Naledi High School to Orlando Stadium, The rioting continued and 200 people died on the first day in Soweto.
The first to be killed was Hector Pieterson, who was 12 years old, when the police began to open fire on the students. Another among the killed was Dr. Melville Edelstein, who had devoted his life to social welfare among blacks. He was stoned to death by the mob and left with a sign around his neck proclaiming "Beware Afrikaaners".
The impact of the Soweto protests reverberated through the country and across the world. In their aftermath, economic and cultural sanctions were introduced from abroad. Political activists left the country to train for guerrilla resistance. Soweto and other townships became the stage for violent state repression. Since 1991 this date and the schoolchildren have been commemorated by the International Day of the African Child.
Aftermath
In response, the apartheid state started providing electricity to more Soweto homes, yet phased out financial support for building additional housing.
Soweto became an independent municipality with elected black councilors in 1983, in line with the Black Local Authorities Act. Previously the townships were governed by the Johannesburg council, but from the 1970s the state took control.
Soweto's black African councilors were not provided by the apartheid state with the finances to address housing and infrastructural problems. Township residents opposed the black councilors as puppet collaborators who personally benefited financially from an oppressive regime. Resistance was spurred by the exclusion of blacks from the newly formed tricameral Parliament (which did include Whites, Asians and Coloreds). Municipal elections in black, coloured, and Indian areas were subsequently widely boycotted, returning extremely low voting figures for years. Popular resistance to state structures dates back to the Advisory Boards (1950) that co-opted black residents to advise whites who managed the townships.
Further popular resistance: incorporation into the City :
In Soweto, popular resistance to apartheid emerged in various forms during the 1980s. Educational and economic boycotts were initiated, and student bodies were organized. Street committees were formed, and civic organizations were established as alternatives to state-imposed structures. One of the most well-known "civics" was Soweto's Committee of Ten, started in 1978 in the offices of The Bantu World newspaper. Such actions were strengthened by the call issued by African National Congress's 1985 Kabwe congress in Zambia to make South Africa ungovernable. As the state forbade public gatherings, church buildings like Regina Mundi were sometimes used for political gatherings.
In 1995, Soweto became part of the Southern Metropolitan Transitional Local Council, and in 2002 was incorporated into the City of Johannesburg.
A series of bomb explosions rocked Soweto in October 2002. The explosions, believed to be the work of the Boeremag, a right wing extremist group, damaged buildings and railway lines, and killed one person.
Demographics
As Soweto was counted as part of Johannesburg in South Africa's 2008 census, recent demographic statistics are not readily available. It has been estimated that 40% of Johannesburg's residents live in Soweto. However, the 2008 Census put its population at 1,3 million (2010) or about one-third of the city's total population.
Soweto's population is predominantly black. All eleven of the country's official languages are spoken, and the main linguistic groups (in descending order of size) are Zulu, Sotho, Tswana, Venda, and Tsonga.
Key statistics (2001)[13]
Area: 106.44 square kilometres (41.10 sq mi)
Population: 858,644: 8,066.81 inhabitants per square kilometre (20,892.9 /sq mi)

The Agfa Compact was billed as the world's smallest motorized camera, and was the last camera manufactured by Agfa. It is the same height as the Olympus XA, and only about 5 mm wider.
A compact little guy for driving around, that's been lying around for a few months. I initially created his just so I could use those dark green technic fairing plates, which were an absolute pain to integrate into any building. Ever since I saw Mahjqa's Stilzkin Igniz, I was very impressed with it that I wished I had one of my own. So I did, albeit a smaller version.
My vehicle is powered by a single M-Motor in the rear segment, where it is roommates with the large battery box. The power is transferred from the motor to a central driveshaft going both segments via U-joint, where it is further split perpendicularly into the axles and sprockets, via bevel gears. Thus, both pairs of tracks are powered. Because of the space restriction, I was confined to being more economical and used bevel gears in place of differentials. While the simplicity is good and the APC can drive fine, turning can be a little stressful for it.
Turning is achieved by a M-Motor in the front cabin. Its drive axle faces forwards, where its power is split into two (both outputs rotate the same direction) through the use of gear trains. The axles are re-routed backwards, parallel to the motor, and into the mini linear actuators, who hook onto the rear cabin.
Aesthetics turned out okay, I guess. I think I did a fair job integrating all the PF elements into the body, weaving and tucking the wiring away and whatnot. The rear cabin was pretty straightforward, and in the roof is a little hatch that can be accessed using a lever, opening to reveal the power button and recharge port. The front cabin, on the other hand, was a bit more tough. the Technic system is very strict about geometric forms, so the curvaceous shaping was extremely difficult. As you can see, the roof of the front cabin is angled in all three axes. It is held together very unconventionally, but turned out stable enough. The front includes the little windshields, grill, bar, and lights. The rear has some lights, and a ladder and stuff. Other greebles I just decided to stick on for fun. I think the overall look turned out okay.

The latest Canon camera has is the first point-and-shoot that the manufacturer has made that’s compatible with the latest RAW format (.CR3).
Digic 8 processor
Canon’s latest Digic 8 processor is also among the highlights one can find in the SX70. With this additions, we should now be seeing an improvement in image quality when compared to the 16.1MP chip used by the SX60 HS.
Like the SX60 HS, the lens is still at 65x, almost half of what’s been outfitted on the new Nikon P100.
The maximum aperture range is F3.4-6.5.

IBIS
It’s also worth mentioning that the camera’s image stabilization system is made better with the addition of a new image processor, which is able to reduce shake by as much as five stops.
The SX70 HS can shoot bursts at 10 fps with focus locked or 5.7 fps with continuous AF. UHD 4K video can be captured at 30p with a bit rate of 120Mbps.
The SX70 continues to offer a microphone socket. The camera’s wireless connectivity includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
