Made by Christian Hacker of Nuremberg. A very similar stable appears in a Hacker catalogue from ca. 1900. This has been over-painted, but it was done extremely well and a very long time ago. A child wrote the names of its horses over the stalls and on the floor in from of them sometime in the 1920s or 1930s: Sepp, Fritz, Franz, Josef and Max. The double doors at the side open into a coach house.
The sailor skittles are also old; Spear & Sons, also of Nuremberg, made very similar sets.
My new Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional 2, imported from Japan.
I do look at the keys occasionally (thankfully, with black labels on black keys, it's not much), so I needed labels. Also, labels are vital because of so many keys that are in non-standard places and only available through the function key.
The keys have a roughened texture (not a camera artifact). For some reasons, Topre-based HH keyboards don't photograph well.
Color adjustment with GIMP, and depth-of-field effect added with Focus Blur filter.

The goal was to create a super wide and cheap APS camera.
Step 1: Take a Canon IXUS FF - file down and glue on a 67-72mm filter step-up ring - paint black to hide all the messy glue (and also to cut down on internal reflections?).
Step 2: Screw on a 0.43x wide angle converter lens that I found for a few pounds on ebay.
Step 3: Realise that you just more than doubled the camera's weight (175g -> 400g!)
Step 4: Shoot and pray it worked out OK.
It came out with a focal length of about 25mm (35mm equivalent) which isn't bad. The bonus is that you get the macro lens thrown in (by unscrewing the wide angle bit).

We often let nine months old Lucas play with Alpha Baby - it's fun for him to hear the sounds and see the coloured polygons appear when he presses keys on the keyboard. And with the security built in, his parents can relax about Lucas messing up the computer... Except, in this clip, Lucas manages to exit from Alpha Baby by turning the keyboard around, then activates Front Row, followed by a visit to System Preferences where he accidentally turned on speech for the visually impaired. It took a while to reset the computer so it didn't read web pages out loud.
I need to write fun and accurate job descriptions. I fell into the lazy trap - write a corporate job description - and surprise... near zero applicants.
Time for a hack!
We're CSS/HTML'izing what you see above (complete with hand-written notes et al)... this is what folks will see when they go to the job posting.
Stay tuned. It should be CSS'ified by Monday.
Thanks to Paul for his neat handwriting and Mike for his CSS jedi skillz... Mike, Paul and I co-authored the hack.

During PBS’ NOVA “Memory Hackers” session at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour in Pasadena, CA on Tuesday, January 19, 2016, pediatric neurologist and neuroscientist Nico Dosenbach, 12-year-old with HSAM (Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory) Jake Hausler, professor and psychologist Dr. Julia Shaw, professor Dr. André Fenton, producer, director and writer Michael Bicks and series senior executive producer Paula Apsell explore how researchers on the cutting edge of mind-control can implant, change and even erase memories. On this thought-provoking journey into the mind, NOVA investigates the mysterious nature of how we remember.

Hacker-Festzelt is one of the most popular tents at the Oktoberfest in Munich. Even before it opened, at 10 am, there was a long line of kurt lederhosen clad men - clearly seen in this photo - waiting to get in!
This tent is one of the largest at the festival with seating space for 6,900 guests and as the name implies they're sponsored by and serve beer from the Hacker-Pschorr brewery.
