Mini Cooper S 1275

Kyosho - 1/18

I loved the Daytripper pattern but when Erin indicated she was working on a mini version, I wanted to make it so bad...and here it is. It took me a while to get started because I had to re-cut fabric. I liked this choice of fabric better than my original idea so it took me a while to get motivated and cut.

 

You can't really tell this is the mini by itself but trust me...it is!

 

I went for the adjustable straps just in case but I like the short straps too. Oh I love this bag so much! I don't know which one I like better. I wanted to show the larger Daytripper with the mini for comparison but my large Daytripper is extremely dirty from constant use. I am a bit embarrassed to show it.

 

This bag isn't as firm as my larger one but that is what I went for. I wanted it to be a tad bit more flexible so the only interfacing I used was the Pellon SF101 on the exterior. This fabric ravels like crazy if you're not careful so it helped keep the fibers in place.

 

Fabric: Upholstry fabric from Hancock Fabrics.

Interior: Red Cotton Duck (Joann's)

 

Mods:

-Used cotton webbing for the strap instead of making one using the fabric. I wanted to add a slightly different texture and contrast with the fabric.

-Top-stitched gusset to make it lay flatter.

 

for dinner syna and i made some healthy mini pizzas. for the crust we used those new arnold's whole wheat sandwich thins; we then spooned on some pizza sauce, layered baby spinach over that, added some shredded mozzarella cheese, and topped it off with fresh broccoli, black olives & mushrooms. It took 20 minutes in the toaster oven at 350° F to melt the cheese, cook the veggies and get all toasty. Mmmm...

 

We stopped by the grocery store salad bar for the toppings so that there wouldn't be a ton of leftover random veggies - and I was feeling lazy. :)

 

The next photo shows you how much my 3 year old daughter loved them.

Didn't Minis have integral reverse lights by this time?

The Rodinal used to develop this image came in a large glass bottle with German text on it. I reckon it was at least 20 - 30 years old, if not more.

Konica Big Mini, diese Kamera erschien 1990 auf dem Markt. Woher kommt der Name 'Big Mini'? Weil diese Kamera trotz der geringen Größe sehr gut ausgestattet ist und einige Funktionen bietet, die andere Kameras in dieser Preisklasse nicht haben. Hier die technischen Daten: das Objektiv ist ein Vierlinser mit eingebautem Skylightfilter, der automatisch gesteuerte Verschluß reicht von 3.6 - 1/500 Sek., somit kann man mit dieser Kamera auch stimmungsvolle Aufnahmen in der Dämmerung machen. Die automatische Scharfeinstellung erfolgt durch ein passives Infrarot-AF-System im Bereich von 0.35m bis unendlich. Die Filmempfindlichkeit wird durch DX-Codierung automatisch abgetastet im Bereich von ISO 25 - ISO 3200. Bei nicht DX-Codierten Filmen wird automatisch ISO 25 eingestellt, und das ist in meinen Augen etwas praxisfremd. Die meisten Kameras mit DX-Codierter Filmempfindlichkeitsabtastung stellen in diesem Fall auf ISO 100 ein, was wesentlich sinnvoller ist. Der eingebaute Selbstauslöser hat eine Vorlaufzeit von 10 Sek. Der eingebaute Blitz kann so eingestellt werden das er sich automatisch zuschaltet, man kann ihn aber auch manuell zuschalten, z.B. bei Portraits im Gegenlicht, die sogen. 'Fill-in' - Funktion. Bei Aufnahmen in der Dämmerung kann man den Blitz auch ausschalten, um die Atmosphäre nicht zu zerstören. Weiterhin bietet die Kamera die Möglichkeit die automatisch gewählte Blende auf plus/ minus 1.5 Blendenstufen zu korrigieren. Die Einstellmöglichkeiten werden übrigens auf einem kleinen LCD-Display auf der Rückseite der Kamera angezeigt. Zusätzlich kann man auch das Datum oder die Uhrzeit einbelichten in den Film. Zur Stromversorgung der Kamera wird eine 3V Lithium-Batterie des Typs CR123A oder DL123A benötigt. Durch die geringe Größe ist sie ideal geeignet als immer-dabei-Kamera. Man sollte sie aber in einer Tasche mit sich führen um die freiliegende Linse nicht zu zerkratzen. Schön wäre es gewesen wenn bei ausgeschalteter Kamera ein Schieber das Objektiv schützen würde.

To join the battle of "Mocer League Summer Slam", I designed this MINI Train Station using LDD in combination with Stud.io and POV-Ray. There are two types of locomotives and several different rolling stocks.

With my friends of BrianzaLUG we made this 1:50 model of the volley stadium where A1 female team Futura Volley Unendo Yamamay Busto Arsizio plays.

This was a tribute to my hometown, and to this fantastic team (and nice players).

The project took about 6 month for the design and more than 3 months for the building and completion in LEGO bricks.

No glue, no kragle, few stickers only for the main team sponsors.

Mini Cupcake, want some? :P

Aujourd'hui c'est la ST-Nicolas, a tout ceux qui sont restés des "grands enfants" je vous souhaite une bonne fête, je vais de ce pas me manger mes SPECULOOS

 

Saint Nicolas est appelé Sinterklaas chez les néerlandophones qui débarque, comme aux Pays-Bas, sur un cheval blanc d'un bateau venu d'Espagne.

 

Chez les francophones, il se déplace avec un âne magique mais également, on le trouve quelques fois en compagnie de "père fouettard".

 

Dans les deux cas, il vient la nuit du 5 au 6 décembre pour déposer cadeaux et friandises (notamment des figurines en chocolat ou des spéculoos à l'effigie du saint) dans les souliers des enfants sages. Il est accompagné du Père Fouettard (appelé aussi « Hanscrouf ») et de son âne. Il est de tradition de laisser un bol d'eau (ou de lait) et une carotte devant la cheminée de la cuisine ou du salon pour l'âne, et un verre d'alcool pour Saint Nicolas. Le lendemain matin, on retrouvera le verre ou le bol vide et la carotte mangée. Cette pièce sera également fermée à double tour devant les enfants comme preuve que St Nicolas rentre bien par la cheminée.

 

Saint Nicolas passe, début décembre, dans les écoles ou dans les centres publics pour demander aux enfants quels cadeaux ils désirent, voir s'ils ont été sages pendant l'année et pour leur donner des friandises. Les enfants sont souvent invités à rédiger une lettre qu'ils adressent au "Grand Saint" (Un service de la Poste belge répond aux enfants qui lui envoient une lettre à l'adresse : rue du Paradis n°1, 0612 CIEL6).

 

Pour les écoliers, plusieurs semaines avant l'arrivée du grand saint, ils se doivent de déposer une paire de chaussures chaque soir devant la porte de leur chambre. Ceux qui ont été sages découvrent chaque matin une friandise typique différente chaque jour : massepain, chocolat, clémentine ...

 

La Saint-Nicolas en Belgique est également une tradition estudiantine qui veut que l'on dépose une assiette ou une paire de chaussures la veille devant sa porte et que chaque cokoteur (locataire de chambre d'étudiant, corturne) y dépose discrètement des friandises. À Liège, à Mons, à Bruxelles et à Namur, il existe aussi la Saint-Nicolas des étudiants : un cortège défile dans la ville avec des chars et les étudiants collectent des piécettes auprès des passants pour s'offrir des bières lors de la guindaille qui clôture la journée.

Today is St-Nicolas, has all those who remain "big kids" I wish you a happy party, I will go and eat me my SPECULOOS

  

In the Netherlands, Saint Nicholas' Eve (5 December) is the primary occasion for gift-giving, when his reputed birthday is celebrated.

 

In the days leading up to 5 December (starting when Saint Nicholas has arrived in the Netherlands by steamboat in late November), young children put their shoes in front of the chimneys and sing Sinterklaas songs. Often they put a carrot or some hay in the shoes, as a gift to St. Nicholas' horse. (In recent years the horse has been named Amerigo in The Netherlands and Slechtweervandaag in Flanders.) The next morning they will find a small present in their shoes, ranging from sweets to marbles or some other small toy. On the evening of 5 December, Sinterklaas brings presents to every child who has behaved him- or herself in the past year (in practice, just like with Santa Claus, all children receive gifts without distinction). This is often done by placing a bag filled with presents outside the house or living room, after which a neighbour or parent bangs the door or window, pretending to be Sinterklaas' assistant. Another option is to hire or ask someone to dress up as Sinterklaas and deliver the presents personally. Sinterklaas wears a bishop's robes including a red cape and mitre and is assisted by many mischievous helpers with black faces and colourful Moorish dress, dating back two centuries. These helpers are called 'Zwarte Pieten' ("Black Petes") or "Père Fouettard" in the French-speaking part of Belgium.

 

The myth is, if a child had been naughty, the Zwarte Pieten put all the naughty children in sacks, and Sinterklaas took them to Spain (it is believed that Sinterklaas comes from Spain, where he returns after 5 December). Therefore, many Sinterklaas songs still allude to a watching Zwarte Piet and a judging Sinterklaas.

 

In the past number of years, there has been a recurrent discussion about the perceived politically incorrect nature of the Moorish helper. In particular Dutch citizens with backgrounds from Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles might feel offended by the Dutch slavery history connected to this emblem and regard the Zwarte Pieten to be racist. Others state that the black skin color of Zwarte Piet originates in his profession as a chimneysweep, hence the delivery of packages though the chimney. [22]

 

In recent years, Christmas (along with Santa Claus) has been pushed by shopkeepers as another gift-giving festival, with some success; although, especially for young children, Saint Nicholas' Eve is still much more important than Christmas. The rise of Father Christmas (known in Dutch as de Kerstman) is often cited as an example of globalisation and Americanisation.[23]

 

On the Frisian islands (Waddeneilanden), the Sinterklaas feast has developed independently into traditions very different from the one on the mainland.[24]
