Clammy the Clam, keepin' it real.
Principles of good engineering come into play no matter what it is you're designing. Function must always be considered. When designing comically-oversized gloves for a mascot costume, they must be stylish and true to the character but they must also allow the wearer to perform the following four gestures at minimum:
1) "#1" finger point;
2) "Thumbs up!"
3) "Jazz hands," which from a glove-design point of view doubles as the "Home Alone" astonished cheek-plant position
4) The "double-Isaac."
Here, Clammy the Clam attempts to double-Isaac the photographer, but is stymied by his head, which is enormous even by mascot standards. Which means that even in a world populated entirely by freaks, the freaks can go somewhere and pay a dime to see a freakshow.
(Honestly, I have no idea what this guy's name is. But the declension of any mascot's name isn't tough: start with what they're supposed to be and then add an "-ey" suffix.)

Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action, Mother's Day 2008
Anti-war / anti-nuclear weapons activists converged on the Naval Submarine Base Kitsap-Bangor on Saturday May 10th, 2008 in a Mothers Day commemorative action. Participant's engaged in a traditional vigil and nonviolent civil resistance direct action to oppose the weapons of mass destruction as they exist in their offensive capacity on the base. The offensive capacity of the weapons is in contravention of several legally binding international agreements. Unfortunately, the United States Government is in flagrant violation of these treaties. The abnegation of international law by the Government of the United States of America imperils the world. Decision-makers behave in ways that are Machiavellian. They employ the Hobbesian model of power-politics where "might makes right" and the "ends justify the means", which is then applied to international discourse. However, there is a better way.
By respecting international laws and agreements, the United States can help to promote and create an international environment of equity and respect.
One of the problems with the trident nuclear missile programs is that in addition to their purported role as a well-intentioned defense, these missiles also serve as a basic international bully mechanism. The trident missile system deployed via Bangor submarine base is estimated to be capable of wreaking a several months' long nuclear winter over much of the globe.
Instead of operating in the realm of power-politics where the application, or the threat of application, of brute force hangs over international proceedings: I challenge the Government and the People of the USA to pursue a better way. I challenge the Gov't and People of the United States of America (including myself) to work for a foreign policy that truly values human rights, human dignity, human health, environmental health, fairness and equity, truth, honesty, respectfulness (for ourselves individually, for each other, and for the Earth). The means create the ends.
I chose this picture for my principle of design for Movement because it gives you the illusion that the horse is moving across the water.
Yes, you guessed right, that really is me on the left. That was still in the old millennium.
The decorated gentleman on the right is Giorgio Carbone, a.k.a Sua Tremendità Giorgio I, Prince of Seborga.
"Prince of what??"
Allow me to explain:
The story of the Principality of Seborga is quite a curious one, which Sua Tremendità Giorgio I is happy to explain at great length and with vivid passion to at first mildly interested and eventually increasingly amused and spellbound visitors to the lovely Ligurian village of Seborga over a lovely bottle (or two, or three) of wine and a hearty dish of pasta.
Those of you who are willing to invest half of your lunch break shall feel encouraged to read a quite clever and delightful (read: very British) travel report on Seborga by Anthony Peregrine which appeared in the Telegraph in 1999.
And since my family happens to be acquainted with his family, we visited Seborga a few times on the occasion of our trips to Italy. It was always a lot of fun.
I highly recommend that you do so, too.

Did you know that John Muir, Thoreau, and Emerson all loved epic poetry and poets including Shakespeare, Milton, Homer, and Robert Burns?
I recently finished my fourth book on Light Time Dimension Theory, much of which was inspired by an autumn trip to Zion!
www.facebook.com/lightimedimensiontheory/
Via its simple principle of a fourth expanding dimension, LTD Theory provides a unifying, foundational *physical* model underlying relativity, quantum mechanics, time and all its arrows and asymmetries, and the second law of thermodynamics. The detailed diagrams demonstrate that the great mysteries of quantum mechanical nonlocality, entanglement, and probability naturally arise from the very same principle that fosters relativity alongside light's constant velocity, the equivalence of mass and energy, and time dilation.

Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."
Dr. E would go on to heal the blind with his NSF-funded, award-winning Ph.D. dissertation which also laid down the foundations of Light Time Dimension Theory. Over the years, LTD Theory added foundational *physical* postulates, principles, and equations en route to becoming numerous books, with this one forming the simple, illustrated introduction.

The great thing about the beach is that it presents an entirely different universe from season to season, from day to day, from hour to hour, from second to second, with the ever changing wind, tides, clouds, and sun. A split second with tumbling surf and a sinking sun can make a vast different, resulting in entirely different photographs.

Principles of Design Portfolio that I had to do for school awhile ago. You may have notcied I spelled Principles wrong on the actual Photoshop Document.
I chose this picture for my principle of design for Unity because the pictures complement each other and seem like one collective image.
Sixteen students from Mountain Home High School recently completed the Principles of Banking course through the ABA as part of the Arkansas Career and Technical Education Finance Pathway for Banking Program of Study. Jerry Don Cunningham, CEO of Twin Lakes Community Bank, presented the students with their certificates of completion on January 29. Along with their coursework, the class heard from local bankers from Integrity First Bank and Twin Lakes Community Bank — guest speakers focused on opening bank accounts, the importance of credit history, lending, and other topics.

Dr. Lynn Rothschild has spent her career asking one of the most profound questions in science: what is life, and where else might it exist? As an astrobiologist at NASA’s Ames Research Center, she studies the limits of life on Earth to better understand its potential beyond our planet. Her work brings together microbiology, synthetic biology, and evolutionary biology in a search for universal principles that govern living systems.
Rothschild’s curiosity extends from Earth’s most extreme environments to the design of life itself. She studies organisms that thrive in high radiation, intense heat, or toxic chemistry, using them as models for what might survive on Mars or Europa. At the same time, she is pioneering the use of synthetic biology to enable space exploration. By programming microbes to make materials, medicines, and fuels, she envisions future missions that “grow” what they need instead of carrying it from Earth. This vision is practical as well as poetic, turning biology into a new kind of engineering.
Educated at Yale, Indiana University, and Brown, Rothschild has combined the rigor of science with the wonder of exploration. At NASA Ames, she founded the Synthetic Biology Initiative, leading interdisciplinary teams that blend the creativity of design with the precision of genetics. She has advised space missions, mentored generations of researchers, and worked closely with engineers, designers, and artists to imagine living technologies that could transform both space and Earth.
Rothschild’s influence reaches beyond the lab. She is a frequent speaker at scientific and cultural institutions, including The Long Now Foundation, where she challenges audiences to think about life across cosmic timescales. Her work invites us to see biology not only as the study of life as it is, but as a toolkit for life as it could be.
Whether exploring extremophile microbes in volcanic lakes or programming DNA to create sustainable materials, Rothschild embodies the idea that science is both discovery and invention. Her optimism about life’s resilience and adaptability offers a hopeful counterpoint to the fragility of our own biosphere. In her view, life is a restless experiment, and humanity’s next frontier lies in learning how to live wisely, both on this planet and beyond.
