Sean Tucker's airplane, the Oracle Challenger III biplane, seen here at the 2008 Aviation Nation air show at the USAF Nellis base, is claimed to produce more than 400 horsepower, and weighs only 1,200 pounds. The Challenger III is equipped with a unique set of wings that use 8 ailerons instead of 4. The tail on the airplane is modeled after the tail used on high-performance radio control airplanes.
We had our annual week of Bible camp for the ELCA and LCMS churches of southern Arizona. We rented the Triangle Y Ranch Camp in Oracle, and it comes with a built in worship area from the 1940's. Because of HUGE fire danger we didn't even try to light a real fire, but we were able to set some mood with votives around the fire.

Like my other Power Figures, this is loosely based on African Bochia and Minkisi power figures, sometimes called "nail fetishes" because of the nails and other pieces of metal that are driven into them ritually to release their magical power.
The figure (head, arms,legs, body) is entirely hand-sculpted by me.
Additive material includes acrylic “doll eye” beads hand-painted by me, replica antique doll parts, fishing net, glass beads, rusted nails.

Oracle was built at the Cammell Laird Birkenhead yard and launched in 1961 and was an Oberon class submarine. This class were improvements over the earlier Porpoise class being made of higher grade steel, having a fibre glass conning tower and having a better equipment fit. The class was intended for anti-submarine operations but also carred out may special forces missions..

With Anquilius the archiver possessing her and guiding her path, Daheia can speak with incredible knowledge and wisdom. Of course, she is also an evil servant of the otherworldly Solonavi, so there's that.

In case you can't find The Oracle on your own, the park has this helpful peephole along the Circle Trail.
Nechung oracle in trance, delivering messages from the god Dorje Drakden. Although the god is usually summoned to enter the human medium's body by the Dalai Lama to answer questions for the Tibetan government, this occasion was commissioned by a group of monastics from south India - Sera Mey or Drepung, I think.
It is nearly impossible to get a "good" photo of the Oracle, because 1-he is moving, shaking and heaving the whole time, 2-flash photography and actually, any photography is discouraged, and 3-there are crowds of people shoving to get nearer to the medium. This was the only photo I got where you can clearly see his hands, the rice and so on. In all the others he is covered up by people seeking blessings and trying to decipher what he's saying.
You actually get a very accurate idea of the "Oracle experience" by watching the movie "Kundun."
My friend Stirling had the ultimate description of the headdress: she said it looks like the Dr Seuss book, "Bartholomew Cubbins and the 500 Hats."
