Published in the Nov/Dec issue of this lovely US magazine under the Art Studio feature. So very happy - 5 pages and my name on the cover! : ) Thank you so much MQU : )
The fax machine is run by a third-party vendor. It costs $2.95 to send a fax, and receiving a fax is free. The fax machine only takes credit or debit cards. If you have any problems faxing, come to the LC Desk and we'll try to help.
In the 1960's the AeroJet company was considered as the possible supplier of solid-fuel rocket motors to be used as primary power plants for the Saturn I space booster. The idea, in simple terms, was to use a single, very large rocket motor in place of a number of smaller rocket motors.
The AJ260 was the largest rocket motor ever produced and during it’s testing, created the highest decibel noise level ever created by man. Its blast could be seen easily, 50 miles away in Miami. Despite it’s great power and sprawling manufacturing complex, the project was dropped by NASA.
All that remains are the ruins of the manufacturing facility, and of course, the rocket, which still sits in its firing tube in the middle of a swamp where it has been waiting for 50 years. The swamp has begun to reclaim this giant complex which stretches across five miles of desolate swamp.
The main complex of huge buildings, a great find itself, is not the highlight of this location. No, the highlight is a smaller metal shack about four miles further into the swamp. Half the roof is missing and a small group of turkey vultures have made the place their home. If you walked through the building you may not even notice it was there, but underneath your feet, below a rusted metal floor is a rocket.

Pneumatic mechanical agitate type flotation machine is a sort of external pneumatic flotation machine, and its main characteristic is that the flotation efficiency should be improved by the vertical and big circulation slurry and the low pressed air pressured by the blower. The advanced mineral processing equipment suit for non-ferrous metal, ferrous metal and non-metal minerals.
Pneumatic mechanical agitate type flotation machine work features:
The agitator (rotors- stator parts) just functioning as agitating the slurry and dispensing and distributing the airflow. The air is blowered by the attached external low press blower.
Owing to the mechanical agitator doesnt have the function of suction, the impeller (rotors) rotation speed is lower than the flotation machine, so the wear of rotors-stator parts is light, the working life is long, and the power assumption of handling a certain unit ores is small. Due to less strong agitating function of the mechanical agitator, it is not easy to generate anglicization phenomenon when flotation brittleness minerals, and meanwhile the mineral liquid surface is stable , and it is easy for forming stable foam layer, which is good for improving flotation technology indicators. The air-charge and agitator is separated, so the quantity of air-charge can be easily and separately adjusted, and it can maintain constant as per the processing technology requirements.
This was actually built for the MocAthlon earlier in the year, but I procrastinated, and never put the videos together into the movie and yeah...
Don't you always find the oddest things in the oddest places? I do. It's weird, really, but I couldn't keep my finger from pressingthe camera button when I saw this. I thought it was quite lovely.
One of my first shots taken with the cream machine, Nikkor 85 f/1.4D. I love the bokeh. The subject isolation is like none other that I have shot with.
Not a computer in sight in this working machine shop in south-western Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1914 and still operating by the same family. Durable "old school" machine tools and the operator's skills. No CNC or 3D printer. Line shafts and flat belt pulleys. A time capsule of early twentieth century technology.
I was interested in making a Lego minifig sized arcade machine. And so I set out to make one and here is the end result. So if you would like to use it please do so but all I ask is to give original credit. Cheers!
Oh yeah I will be making different colored versions soon so keep an eye out for that.
Methinks this machine annoyed someone. (Jeez, you lost 0.50USD so you went out and bought a more costly can of spray paint?)
Samuel F. Cody originally worked as a showman before turning to aviation. By 1905 he was working with the British Army's Balloon Section and in October 1908 he made the first official powered flight in Britain. In the above photograph Colonel Cody with his 1.25 ton Cody biplane preparing for ground run on one engine at International Aviation Meeting at Lanark in Aug1910 His biplane was the largest machine present. Cody made numerous attempts at flying but with the exception of one short flight his machine never left the ground. Some of the 15 large sheds specially constructed for the storage of the aircraft are in the background.

Aviation and Lanark
Lanark has a unique place in the history of aviation in Scotland: Scotland's first International Aviation meeting was held there between the 6th and 13th August 1910.
The meeting was one of the largest events organized in Scotland at that time. The aerodrome had over 9 miles of telephone cable, and the Aerodrome Post Office employed 30 telegraph operators. The Caledonian Railway Company built a new station, and a minimum of 14 special trains ran each day.
Competitions for cash prizes were on offer, including Long Distance, Cross Country Flights, Speed, Altitude, Weight Carrying and Delivery of Dispatches. The event attracted 22 aviators from all over the world, including one from Peru. The prizes offered were (for the time!) very generous. Most first prizes were over £250, and the winner of the Cross Country Flights Competition (over four days) was awarded £1,610.
The meeting, despite having a financial deficit, was regarded as a great success. World records for altitude and speed were set during the meeting, and official figures from the Treasurers to the Meeting gave a total of nearly 215,000 people attending during the six days.

Aviation in Scotland
On 25 August 1784 James Tytler attempted a flight from Edinburgh in a hot air balloon but rose only a few feet before the balloon broke free from his basket;. On 12 September 1785 Vincent Lunardi made a successful flight from Edinburgh in a hydrogen balloon.
Percy Pilcher in the 1890s flew his 'Bat' glider from Wallacetown Farm near Cardross. Barrhead Aerodrome was opened at Cowan Park in 1908. In 1909 the Barnwell Brothers made short flights in a biplane of their own design, near Stirling; Frank Barnwell was to go on to become the chief designer of the Bristol Aeroplane Company. The Scottish Aeronautical Society was founded in 1909 and in August 1910 their aviation meeting on Lanark Racecourse was attended by 200,000 people.
William Beardmore built aircraft and airships at Inchinnan during the First World War, including the airship R.34 which in 1919 left East Fortune for the first double crossing of the Atlantic. East Fortune is now the home of the Museum of Flight of the National Museums of Scotland.
In April 1933 two Scots, Flight Lieutenant D.F. McIntyre and Squadron Leader Lord Clydesdale were the first pilots to fly over Mount Everest.
From 1933 air services within Scotland and from Scotland to other parts of the United Kingdom were inaugurated and developed by various companies, notably: the Scottish Motor Traction Co (SMT), Midland and Scottish Air Ferries (by John Sword, the Western Manager of S.M.T. in Kilmarnock), Highland Airways (by E. E. Fresson), Aberdeen Airways (by E. L Gandar Dower), Northern & Scottish Airways and Scottish Airways.
Private flying and gliding spread throughout the country in the same period. The Royal Auxiliary Air Force established two Scottish squadrons, No. 602 "City of Glasgow" and No. 603 "City of Edinburgh" in 1925. Military activity in Scotland during the war included the production of 250 Short Sunderland maritime patrol flying boats at Dumbarton by Blackburns.
After the Second World War domestic services were taken over by the nationalised British European Airways which also continued the air ambulance service; these were later franchised by British Airways to the Scottish airline Loganair, based at Glasgow. Military airfields remained at Kinloss, Lossiemouth and Leuchars, with rescue helicopters based there and at the naval air station at Prestwick.

It's a very useful machine, because you can use it for peaceful mining, or agressive attack. That guy always takes a weapon along.
