Road Atlanta 1986. This car was fast- fast enough to run in the top three with the Porsches, Nissans, etc. It was loud too, when they fired it up you could feel the shockwaves from 40 feet away. It just didn't run for very long at a time.
A couple of years later I was talking to Scott Pruett and Pete Halsmer when they were running the Roush Merkurs in Palm Beach. They were signing autographs while the GTP cars were practising. I suggested that Jack should have the black car here for them to run, and they both looked at each other, rolled their eyes, and shuddered.
The Engineering Modules are comprised of two separate sections joined together. I envisioned that each section housed specific equipment for each area of the probe.
The Ford Probe is a sports coupe produced by Ford, introduced in 1989 to replace the Ford EXP as the company's sport compact car.
The Probe was fully based on the Mazda G-platform using unique sheet metal and interior. The instrument cluster and pop-up headlight mechanisms are borrowed from the FC RX-7.
While it was sold worldwide as a sporty coupe, the Probe was intended to fill the market niche formerly occupied by the Capri in Europe, and although it was intended as the replacement to the Ford EXP, it was also considered a possible replacement for the Ford Mustang in the North American market as a direct competitor with the Acura Integra and the Toyota Celica. During that time, Ford's marketing team had deemed that a front-wheel drive platform (borrowed Mazda GD and GE platforms) would have lower costs for production, and also because the platform had been gaining popularity with the consumers.
Mustang fans objected to the front-wheel drive configuration, Japanese engineering, and lack of a V8, so Ford began work on a new design for the Mustang instead. On March 17, 1997, Ford announced the discontinuation of the Probe, Thunderbird, Cougar, and Aerostar.

Ritual and a Cultural Probe: Are the rituals performed in the coffee shop experience just part of an illusion of busyness or importance, a facade? Where does the mind wander during those ritualistic experiences? What are the thoughts beneath the surface of ritual?
My Probe: A single blank nesting doll is left randomly on tables, with a kit for creation inside including, a sheet of paper with directions and small colored pencils.
The customer is first prompted to capture what they were thinking of the second before they encountered the doll and write that thought on a piece of paper that will then be rolled up and placed inside. They are then encouraged to imaginatively represent their coffee shop persona on the outer most doll (through drawing, color, writing, etc.) and prompted to create directly onto the blank canvas of the doll.
The directions read:
just a thought...
What were you thinking about the moment before you encountered this object? Capture in your mind that thought and hold it there. Record your thought on the back of this paper. Then open the doll to place it inside.
An image...
What is your coffee shop persona? Are you all business, a slow sipper, a day dreamer, a book reader, a socialite? Using the tools provided and your imagination create directly onto the blank canvas of the doll a representation–a sketch, a sentence, or perhaps a single word–of who you are and what you do while here in this coffee shop.
and finally...
Place your captured thought and tools back into the doll and leave it in the collection bin near the register.
Then visit www.justathoughtproject.com
to view other representations and thoughts as well as your own.

Story:
By early day break "Alien Probes" had been spotted circling around Mr Jon's place in Thailand.
It is reported the probes had been seen during the night but was unable to verify until these recent photos came in .
This sighting was early Monday morning just as the probes started searching for likely victims.
Mr Jon, an affiliate with "Reporters That Can Run Boarders" brought us this news update just as the probes were crossing the river into his compound.
It is reported Mr Jon and family including the famed "WeeNee" and of course the "Worm" all escaped unharmed.
We here at news station WTF-D50 are awaiting for any updates as to where the Alien Probes might be rounding up cattle, sheep and people at this very moment.
Please use our Alien Probe Hot Line 24 hours a day to report any suspicious activity.

Rechts der gefüllte Paprika auf einer roten Tomatensauce, vielleicht ein Champignon daneben und ein Strauch Rosmarin für das Auge.
still workers on the pad & payload umbilical needs hooking up but early dawn w/Moho & Jool was too good to pass up

At some point the Probe was supposed to replace the Mustang, luckily this didn't happened.

Seen in the sky over Sydney on 12 August at 1831. Appeared to drift east on the strong wind but must have been too high as it was seen from southern Queensland to Tasmania and apparently was the Parker solar probe launched from Florida. Seen widely in eastern Australia. This photo was taken an hour after the probe was launched on an eastern trajectory from Florida.
Mars 3 was an unmanned space probe of the Soviet Mars program which spanned the years between 1960 and 1973. Mars 3 was launched nine days after its twin spacecraft Mars 2. The probes were identical spacecraft, each consisting of an orbiter and an attached
The spacecraft is in a state that lander is separated, it is referred to as a M71S. The orbit of Mars, M71S and relay data lander, the observation of Mars.
lander. After Mars 2 crash-landed on the martian surface, Mars 3 lander became the first spacecraft to attain soft landing on Mars.
Mars 3's descent module was released at 09:14 UT on December 2, 1971, 4 hours 35 minutes before reaching Mars. The descent module entered the Martian atmosphere at roughly 5.7 km/s.
After 14.5 seconds, at 13:52:25, transmission on both data channels stopped for unknown reasons and no further signals were received at Earth from the Martian surface. It is not known whether the fault originated with the lander or the communications relay on
the orbiter. The cause of the failure may have been related to the extremely powerful martian dust storm taking place at the time which may have induced a coronal discharge, damaging the communications system.
On April 11, 2013, NASA announced that the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) may have imaged the Mars 3 lander "debris field" on the surface of Mars. The HiRISE camera on the MRO took images of what may be the parachute, retrorockets, heat shield and

So nice I thought it deserved two shots.
You know a car has me in awe, when I actually bother to get out of the comfort and safety of my own car and take proper up close shots like this.
I had my gran in the car when I saw this, and she was quite surprised that I wanted to stop for photos. "Is it expensive?" she asked.

Sometimes, it is reasonnable to ensure that when you are diving in a shaft, you'll be able to climb it back up.
We let ourselves ear that the quarry at the bottom was fillled with terrific deadly gaz, lacking oxygen, etc. So we sent this probe down, equipped with O2 measurement probe, CO measurement probe, a camera and LED torches. We neglected H2S and misc war gaz...
So what did the probe tell us ? oxygen over 20%, CO absent, and the camera showed that at least one corridor exists.
Great ! so maybe it will be safe and worth diving this 55 meter deep quarry shaft !

went to a trendy, yet slummy, section of the city...its where most demostrations are held....schanzenviertel or schanze for short...its where outsiders come in to protest or tag the walls of the neighborhood...mainly the people who live there are very anti_establishment people and who really do not mind the edgy neighborhood ...the buildings were from the late 1880s, but a tad run down...and the tons of garbage graffitti tags didnt help the look of the place. granted, there was some awesome graffiti and beautiful arty posters plastered all over the place too...dumb, useless tags are truely a blight
there was a little streat performance going on between a pair of young lovers...they looked really cool and mimed a couple's meet up in a movie to a relationship...it was kind of cool...though, the usa is sort of over mimes, at least there was no white makeúp...
there are many little boutiques and many little eateries on the first floor of the 4 to 6 story apartment buildings. there are scattering of cafes which probally sell more beer than cafe...there was one grocery store selling COLD BEER, but using the phrase ASS COLD which is a slang for 'extremely cold' in German, BIER ARSCHKANT 1 EURO...ASS COLD BEER 1 EURO..lol
there was some awesome graffiti and paste_up posters which were impossible to take down...you so know i would of done that...i didnt have my roll of clear packing tape, which is my secret for taking down a glued on poster. tape over the poster and gently pull off the wall.
someone did 3-D sculptures out of thick poster board...they were incredible...chamaleons, strange monsters, and assorted creatures...so, there was some very creative art work up....
the volunteer fire department had the whole building done with ROY LICTHCHENSTIEN type of drawings of firement, a woman screaming 'fire', and lots of flames....it was all professionally done, and with approval of the fire department....They spray painted the words in flames, 'FEUER UND FLAMME' in english 'FIRE AND FLAMES' which means being 'obsessed' ...quite clever...and the art work was incredible.
it was a fun walk around the trendy neighborhood, but i wouldn't want to live there, as they say.....speaking of neighborhoods, when we took the U-BAHN and S-BAHN train (U underground, S fast=direct) The conductor came on the speaker system and said, 'Eppendorfer Baum, If you want to live in a nice neighborhood, this is where you get off.' Everyone laughed. (During WWII, this is the area the British did NOT bomb during the raids, because of all the beautiful manisons. The British wanted to occupy those houses after the war. The Americans bombed the factories, not the neighborhoods.)
We did do a U-BAHN metro stop photo op...yes, we stopped at the SCHLUMP station...That brings a huge smile to any English speaker....SCHLUMP....lol..Though the state sponsored billboards , which ares 10 feet by 15 feet in the SCHLUMP metro station cause me to just break out laughing....it featured a stick drawing of a woman and man...the stick guy had his pants open while the woman stick figure was looking down them. 'PREMATURE EJACUATION? 1 out of 5 men experience it. Call for fast help to slow you down.'
we've begun launch review today, will take most of this week to complete. Here's a launch image from the water tower

This is an old probe thing I made one day for some unknown reason. It looks vaguely like the weird probe-thingies from the original Clone Wars cartoon.

An infographic depicting the 40 years of history for both the Voyager probes, sent in space among the 20th of August and the 9th of September, 1977
As the ship tumbled through the void, the onboard systems attempted an orderly shutdown. Cascading failures fragmented the efforts. Software dæmons regulating read/write access to the memory spools locked out other hardware, preserving whatever data was left after the kernel panic that had crashed the FTL. The odds of recovery were low, but not so slim that it couldn't be found when drifted through the Sol system in another 80,000 years.
This ship was hard-won out of a box of LEGO that had no sets more recent than the Aquanauts and not nearly as many space kits as I would've liked. Still, Ice Planet lends itself nicely to clean color pallettes and hinged structures.
Designed to float high up into the lower atmosphere, which extends up to 18km, this gas-filled envelope allows us to explore higher than is currently possible by rocket technology. At around 16.5km the outside air pressure is so thin the envelope can no longer hold in the gas and it will burst, allowing the payload to return to the surface with its scientific data.
