But I did. Until Saturday evening, May 18, 2024, the last time I loaded my phone and tablet with this cable. Amateurishly fixed some time ago with fabric tape because isolating tape wasn't at hand – but when I took a closer look at it while preparing the setup for my MM photo I thought "No, you better not continue using this cable." For the photo, I bent the cable some more so the wires became more visible.
I used warning packing tape as background and fixed the cable to it with leftovers of the tape. The idea was to make an x-sign that is used in some warning signs (although not in high-voltage warnings). The image is focus-stacked because I thought all-over sharpness looked best with this type of image. I also set my camera to 1:1 ratio because it was easier to get an exact corner placement of the tape's red/white pattern and the cable this way. With 4:3 ratio the corners had always been slightly off.

HMM, Everyone, and have a nice spring/autumn week ahead!
I love skating in both worlds...
It was a lovely evening... although I missed my devil :))
but as always I did met some new people....
We had a great time laughing and fun.
Dangerous UK 13A Plug wiring, example for Macro Mondays theme "#Danger"
The 3A fuse has blown, and has been wrapped in foil to get the appliance running again. A very dangerous practice.
If a fault occurs a high current can flow causing over heating of the the appliance/cable causing fire.
Also the plug has been very badly wired.
The green and yellow earthing wire (Circuit Protective Conductor) is very short and likely to disconnect first if the flex is over strained/tugged leaving the appliance without an earth connection.
The plug should be wired with the brown (phase/line) wire much shorter and neat fitting, the blue neutral wire and the yellow and green earth wire should have plenty of extra length.
Should the pull on the flex be heavy enough, the brown line wire will fail before either the neutral or Circuit Protective Conductor (CPC) thus ensuring the disconnection of power to the appliance.
The reason for the fuse blowing should be investigated but may be just due to age and gradual deterioration.
The fuse should only be replaced with the correct type and current rating
birds do it, bees do it
even educated fleas do it
in Spain, the best upper sets do it
the Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
people say, in Boston, even beans do it
Not to mention, lazy jellyfish do it
electric eels, I might add, do it
though it shocks them, I know.
Goldfish, in the privacy of bowls, do it
let's do it, let's fall in love!!

The theme for this week is "Sport". I did play tennis on Thursday, but this indoor variety with an electric tennis raquet is just as challenging... not breaking ornaments, glass, harps etc while trying to swat a fat housefly.

And just like any other Metro Manila street... the traffic is like the weather. It can get jammed up anytime anywhere. When flashes of lighting accompanied the multiple thunderclaps, the only thing I can pull out was my camera. Took several shots and of the about 20 shots or so, I got the lightning in just two of those shots. One of them is this. My camera phone is one lucky piece of equipment to have captured this, I haven't captured the lightning yet with the camera I'm using now.
At this situation, it might be stupid to go out and put up your tripod and your camera. Its not the rain or the lighting that you should be worried. Remember -- you're in Metro Manila. If you're from the Philippines, and you're asking why you should not get out of the car and put up your tripod -- you are one big dumb stupid idiot. And I mean it.
Well... you can ask probably how a lighting is formed. But not that.
What I wrote about this piece in 2007:
This is a 12 x 16 acrylic on canvas. I did it for a specific show at the Art Murmur Gallery in Los Angeles. The original name for the show was something quite whimsical. I do a lot of whimsical, so I made this painting, loosely an homage to Philip Guston.
I have a favorite Southern expression, "Come to find out." In this case it goes like the following, "Come to find out that the gallery changed the name of the show to something like, "automotive beasts," and my little painting looked pretty silly next to huge slick paintings of powerful cars.
There is a visual pun in this painting. Clue: it has to do with the lightning bolts. What are they, after all?

Electric ray (Torpedo marmorata) swimming in the mediterranean sea at a night dive. Black background.
Contrary to its name, this guy is actually a fish, a very nasty fish indeed. It is a swimming power plant literally. Able to generate a whopping 800 volts with a bank of chemically motivated cells build into its remarkable body. It even have 2 generating modes, a low intensity one which creates a weak magnetic field to help the animal navigate thru' the murky Amazonian river habitat. Acting like an under-water radar system since the eel has a little bit of eye-sight problem.
When a prey is detected, he then switches on the killer high voltage mode which deliver a powerful jolt to paralyze its victim and lunch is served.
The same mode is employed to avoid being turn into lunch by a would-be predator, vice versa.
This fella has no room mates for obvious reasons. Sometimes he got his wife killed from over-excitement and vise versa.
Really wonder how these guys make love especially in the natural environment where there are multiple sex partners each armed with lethal electric power.. Probably they have a sex mode where the power plant is shut down during the love making process to prevent accidental electrocution.
These guy is one of nature's most bizarre creation.
My son serves as a size comparison to this awesome power station.
