Smile on Saturday: Tabletop game components

La Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (en valenciano y oficialmente Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències) es un complejo arquitectónico, cultural y de entretenimiento de la ciudad de Valencia (España).

El complejo fue diseñado por Santiago Calatrava y Félix Candela, junto con los ingenieros autores del diseño estructural de las cubiertas del L'Oceanografic Alberto Domingo y Carlos Lázaro.​ Fue inaugurado el de junio de 1998 con la apertura de El Hemisférico. El último gran componente de la Ciudad es el Ágora, situado entre el puente de l'Assut de l'Or y l'Oceanogràfic

 

Feliz domingo a tod@s

...on a circuit board.

 

For Macro Mondays: "Small and Smaller" theme, it's a demonstration board from Universal Instruments Corp. that I've had for many years. The company builds automated machines for placing and attaching components--both small and smaller--to circuit boards.

 

The image measures just 1 5/8-inch on the long side.

 

HMM

Neither the smallest nor the most inconsequential element to the image, this red boat had me following its path. Meandering about, a father and his two boys enjoy time out on Trout Lake. When they began to slowly travel toward the north end, I quickly beetled toward this sunken log.

 

Like arrows in my quiver, none of the previous shots of this scene, ever made it to post. However, this one combines the multiple components needed, so the log is a supporting element, framing the boater and anchoring the Fall colored trees.

The docklands has always been a major component of the Dublin’s history and development. Beginning with the Vikings and Norman settlers the docklands became quite a significant commerce and trading hub. Recently companies such as Google and Facebook have created tens of thousands of jobs and transformed the docklands into a bustling area. Only a short distance from the City Centre it has become home to numerous entertainment venues including music, theatre, opera, exhibitions and galleries. If you are feeling daring the docklands offers a variety of outdoor activities including kayaking and wake boarding. Dublin’s Docklands is sure to have something for everyone, why not make a day of it?

'Blow off a little steam'

  

World's first steam powered clock

 

Built in 1977. Raymond Saunders' first steam clock was built in 1977 to solve the issue of a steam vent in a popular sidewalk for the renovated Gastown district of Vancouver. Owned by the City of Vancouver, BC Canada

 

The steam clock's plaque reads:

THE GASTOWN STEAM CLOCK

Designed and built by

Raymond L. Saunders

Horologist

The world's first steam powered clock has been created for the enjoyment of everyone. The live steam winds the weights and blows the whistles. Every 4.5 minutes one steel weight will travel by steam power to the top of the clock. The gravity driven "falling ball" drive was 'engineered' by Douglas L. Smith. Each quarter hour the clock will sound the Westminster Chimes. The large whistle will sound once on the hour. The steam is supplied by the underground system of Central Heat Distributor's Limited. The component parts cost $42,000 and the clock weighs over two tons.

 

A few years ago the clock was refit and is not entirely steam powered. It also has three small electric motors to help operate two internal fans, one of which blows the steam out the top, and another that controls the valves that play the tunes on the five steam whistles mounted atop the clock case.

 

The large central whistle, which was taken off the CPR steam tug Naramata, counts off the full hours while the four auxiliary whistles chime the Westminster Quarters every quarter hour. The number of chimes matches the number of quarter hours that have passed.

Latvia has over 12 thousand rivers that stretch for 38,000 kilometres, as well as 2,256 lakes with a collective area of 1000 sq.km. Eastern Latvia, where many of these lakes are found, is known as the Land of the Blue Lakes. Nearly all inland waters are pollution-free and ideally suited for swimming and fishing. Although some of Latvia's rivers have had their courses straightened, most large and medium size rivers retain their natural contours. As a result, their banks are home to such now rare European wildlife as otter, beaver and common kingfisher. Latvia is one of the few places in the Baltic Sea region where natural salmon spawning areas still remain. There are plenty of rivers suitable for canoeing and rafting.

The Chevrolet Camaro is an automobile manufactured by Chevrolet, classified as a pony car and some versions also as a muscle car. It went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The car shared its platform and major components with the Pontiac Firebird, also introduced for 1967. Four distinct generations of the Camaro were developed before production ended in 2002. The nameplate was revived on a concept car that evolved into the fifth-generation Camaro; production started on March 16, 2009. [source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Camaro]

When it became dark enough, and the camera settings were sensitive enough, light was getting picked up on the sea stacks. I couldn't tell if it was all moonlight, or whether there was a component of light from the town of La Push.

Weather Can Change Rapidly in the Northern Adriatic and Especially at Cape Kamenjak Where the Winds Easily Swell the Sea whose Waters Are Deep up to the Shore

 

After Bora wind and cold and a couple of sunny days, an Atlantic front is preceded by southern currents that channel into the Adriatic Sea.

 

Thus the other recurring wind of these areas is generated, which is the Jugo (Scirocco in Italian) coming from the S/E or S/SE.

 

It is a wind originating from opposite currents to those that activate the bora, it is a matter of humid and mild Mediterranean or North African air masses.

 

What the two winds have in common is that the Jugo also has an orographic component, felt in a particular way along the Croatian coast on the mainland which from Dalmatia goes up towards the Kvarner, with characteristics that at times recall the bora as the currents are channeled between the dinaric gates the sea channels and the islands, thus generating not only an isobaric winds, whose direction of origin is generally varied (following the disposition of the isobars which are constantly changing), but also orographic, therefore falling from the Dinaric Alps with a fixed direction with irregular and drying gusts, which are, sometimes, strong and rabid, being able to reach 90/100kmph, exceptionally 120kmph, in some areas, especially along the Velebitski Kanal/Velebit Channel and, less accentuated, in Kvarnerić, between Otok Cres and Otok Krk.

 

It is therefore a recurring wind and for this reason it has a name, while the winds caused only by LP isobars, however continuous and intense, often change direction and are therefore defined only according to the quadrant of the wind rose from which they temporarily come.

 

In this case/shot the southern currents were not very intense and the wind was only moderate, generating normal waves for this area, i.e. about 2/2.5 meters in height, but in case of stormy situations (with very narrow isobars, as in the storm of Jugo/Scirocco of 29 October 2018) the waves on this cape can reach 6/7 meters in height, taking along the entire Adriatic from South to North for hundreds of kilometers and resulting in the place where the waves are most highest of all the small Adriatic.

 

Furthermore, Cape Kamenjak is quite distant from the islands and the Dalmatian coast, therefore the coastal orographic effects are felt much less and more the isobaric ones with the direction of origin more often oriented from S/SE instead of S/E, although this is also a form of channeling, i.e. the currents are channeled into the Adriatic, as if it were a wide channel and the Adriatic has an axis from S/SE towards N/NW, the resulting wind is therefore continuous and humid, sometimes with high average speeds, but without significant gusts, favoring regular swell.

 

The recurring wind from S/E or S/SE which mainly affects the central-northern Adriatic is a partially isobaric and partially orographic wind, this means that almost all the Atlantic perturbations that approach these areas activate (almost always) the jugo and much more rarely winds from the full South or South-West, which are only isobaric and therefore of short duration and non-recurring, generally present when the front passes and the isobars bend towards the west.

In this shot of Copper Island, the cloud I saw from a distance plays a major part. As it was forming I raced to a familiar spot to catch it at just the right time. Copper Island is left as a silhouette, and makes the shot more about shapes than the nature it captures.

Working with Lotte in the studio on this project was once again a wonderful experience. It was our first collaboration in this context, and I think we’ll be working together more often in the future.

  

"short films – …and then we‘ll call it even"

 

In the silent arena of our minds, where thoughts dance like invisible actors, a profound equality among us all is revealed. These inner conflicts, which do not manifest themselves in the outside world, are the invisible threads that weave the fabric of human existence. They are the silent struggles that each of us, regardless of gender or external circumstances, wages in the depths of our souls. These inner struggles are not mere challenges, but essential components of human existence that initiate us into the mysteries of life.

 

Every person faces their own inner battles, which are unique in their intensity and significance. These psychological struggles cannot be compared, as they are an expression of each individual's journey through the depths of consciousness. They are the touchstones that shape us and lead us to explore the limits of our being. Overcoming these inner conflicts holds the possibility of growth, transformation, and enlightenment.

 

The pursuit of overcoming these inner struggles is a deeply personal and often solitary journey. It challenges us to look into the darkness within ourselves and find the glimmers of light that guide us. In this inner argument lies the chance to discover the essence of our being and strengthen the connection to our true self. Thus, these inner conflicts are not only tests, but also invitations to self-knowledge and spiritual development.

I kept this series practically closed as a self-portrait series for a very long time. I think it’s time to open it up and at the same time connect it to my overarching theme, the portraits.

 

As a rule, these are long exposure shots with exposure times varying between 2 and 30 seconds. In this case 6 seconds. They are series that deal with a range of human feelings and thoughts. They deal with desire, loss, regret and pain and the attempt to process all of this.

Burlington Northern #2202 stands in for our "Thirty Thursday" selection, seen here on the end of a local sitting idle in a siding. The BN owned 55 of these units, which originated on two of the four component railroads. The CB&Q provided 38 units and the GN supplied the other 17. No surprise none came from the Alco loving SP&S, but also none came from the NP which seemed to not like second generation 4-axle EMD units. Fortunately a lot of these survived well into the future on account of rebuilding, but she sure doesn't look that optimistic in this photo. Has to be one of the dirtiest, beat looking BN units that I ever photographed.

This is a Merlin engine, 1 of 4 recovered from a Handley Page bomber. The aircraft crashed in 1943, shot down over Germany. The engines remained buried in the ground until 2010 when they were recovered by the Germans who then passed them onto the MoD who then passed them onto the Wings Museum in Sussex. They have managed to restore this engine to working order whilst retaining 90% of the original components.

Serengeti National Park.

Una splendida zona del Serengeti con grandi massi di granito.

I Kopjes, pronunciati come kop-eez, sono antiche rocce cristalline che spuntano attraverso suoli recenti e superfici rocciose.

Queste pietre danno origine a terreni argillosi neri, impraticabili, tra cui gneiss granitici (occhi) e terreni sabbiosi di colore chiaro.

Puoi trovare queste vecchie rocce sotto gli strati di vulcani cenere e rocce, che formano il suolo di Parco Nazionale del Serengeti.

Una gigantesca bolla di granito liquido si fece strada dalla roccia fusa sotto la crosta terrestre e nello Scudo del Tanganica nel tardo periodo Precambriano.

Il granito è rotto dal ripetuto raffreddamento e riscaldamento sotto il sole africano e esposto all'aria in forme affascinanti dal vento.

La maggior parte dei Kopjes possiede massi rotondi su di loro o sono rotondi da soli.

Kopjes vengono spesso chiamati isole in un mare d'erba e sono le componenti più distintive del paesaggio del Parco Nazionale del Serengeti.

Inoltre, queste antiche pietre ne ospitano molti animali selvatici specie, come leoni, ghepardi, leopardi e altro ancora, che possono essere trovati a oziare su di loro, offrendo loro una visione migliore dell'ambiente circostante.

 

Serengeti National Park.

A beautiful area of ​​the Serengeti with large granite boulders.

Kopjes, pronounced kop-eez, are ancient crystalline rocks that poke through recent soils and rock surfaces.

These stones give rise to impassable black clay soils, including granitic gneiss (eyes) and light-colored sandy soils.

You can find these old rocks under layers of volcanic ash and rocks, which form the soil of Serengeti National Park.

A giant bubble of liquid granite forced its way from molten rock beneath the Earth's crust and into the Tanganyika Shield in the late Precambrian period.

The granite is broken up by repeated cooling and reheating under the African sun and weathered into fascinating shapes by the wind.

Most Kopjes have round boulders on them or are round on their own.

Kopjes are often called islands in a sea of ​​grass and are the most distinctive components of the Serengeti National Park landscape.

In addition, these ancient stones are home to many wildlife species, such as lions, cheetahs, leopards and more, who can be found lounging on them, giving them a better view of their surroundings.
