After a discussion about ball heads and tripods with Cassidy Photography this week, I recalled that I was missing a small travel 'pod' for hiking/biking, air travel. So, I got a killer deal on a new Zomei F678. (now replaced by the Q/Z 669 models)
Similar to the MeFoto offerings, but 1/4 the price. It has excellent build quality and features. 14.5" folded, 60.5" extended. It has one shortcoming, it can't get any lower than this without inverting the column. But I don't want to invert. I've been spoiled by my favorite Manfrotto 190D, which comes with a short center column attachment. I discovered that a very similar K&F Concepts version does include a 100mm stubby column to attach the ball head to, but wasn't included with the Zomei.
Hmmm, what to do? To the drawing board.
Three days ago, on 18 May 2016, I went to what was most likely my last volunteer shift. I have been volunteering there for about 18 years and it has been a wonderful experience. However, as the number of clients constantly rises, even more so with the poor state of the economy, the problem of parking has become a real issue. Though we have to park on the nearby street, usually at the very far end of it, I now find that each time I go, I have to park further and further away. There is no sidewalk on which to walk and there are many huge trucks coming and going all the time. Makes for a dangerous walk. In winter, it will be even worse. I always walk in pain and yesterday was, I think, the final straw, when I had to park even further away. I have been volunteering at various places for the last 36 or so years, so I know I will miss it, but I was just not enjoying the long walk and always wondering if I was even going to be able to find a parking spot. I know I will miss good, long-time friends there, terribly.
Anyway, after my shift, I thought I had better call in at the Reader Rock Garden, in case I don't get over there for a long time. I wasn't sure about the weather and I did feel the odd raindrop, plus it was rather windy. However, the scent around the garden was wonderful - I could have stayed there for hours, just breathing it in. Plenty of flowers to enjoy. Is this a Peony (single)?
The few workers do such a great job of keeping this place looking beautiful. If you visit and you happen to see one of the staff or volunteers, do let them know how much you appreciate all their hard work and care. I know they would appreciate it.

Oh-oh, my left leg stocking top is much lower than my right one. This is embarrasing and totally unaccepteble!

Well that's the shape he takes when he sits like this. You can see his enormous body surrounding his head.
Last post until after Easter. We are off to my sister's tomorrow for a stopover before heading to Wales to stay with Phill's sister for Easter. The weather forecast is rain which is a problem as I have a bad foot infection and am walking around with flip flops at the moment. I am hoping the anitbiotics will 'kick in' soon so I can at least get my trainers on.
Phill has bought me a new camera for my birthday - whooo hooo! So another reason to hope the rain stays away.
Wishing you all a happy, peaceful Easter.
Há uns 2 meses fui usar minha Big Shot para cortar umas flores e ela simplesmente travou. Eu nem usava muito e ela estava bem guardada na gaveta da minha cômoda.
Na hora bateu um desespero, uma tristeza pq vcs sabem que ela é bem cara, não só ela mas como tb as facas. Aliás foi um presente do meu pai, que me mandou lá de Paris.
Então resolvi compartilhar o meu susto com vcs que tem uma "Big" para que caso aconteça a mesma coisa não fiquem tristes como eu, achando que perderam sua máquina. Pq tem conserto e ela volta a cortar perfeitamente!!!
Caso a sua máquina "trave", vai ser preciso que vc a desmonte e lubrifique as engrenagens com graxa de glicerina, meu marido encontrou em loja de peças automotivas, mas vc pode pedir para um mecânico, pq só vai usar um pouquinho. Custa apenas 3,50 e caso não leve muito jeito para desmontá-la peça para o marido como eu fiz, seu pai, irmão, cunhado...sempre tem alguém jeitoso na família né??
Sei que tem pessoas em São Paulo que chegam a cobrar 400 reais pelo conserto da máquina!!! Um absurdo!!! Com um pouco de paciência vc mesma pode deixá-la como nova. Pois se for para pagar 400 reais para consertar o melhor é mesmo comprar uma nova não é??
Então fica a dica para aquelas que tem e tb para as meninas que pretendem comprar uma, ela é muito boa!!! E não costuma dar problemas....aconteceu comigo.
Agradeço a Raquel Leal que encontrei no Google e me deu algumas dicas de reparo tb.

We went to Moraine Hills State Park on Sunday to bike ride. I think we did about 4 miles. I went a little too late in the day I think for the poor guy. Pretty much every person we passed commented on him.
He and I both are getting use to the bike again. He ran in front of it at one point and his foot was run over by the front bike. Luckily no limping though.
So I registered him for the dog show. I was a little worried about not getting the paperwork in on time, but it now looks like I will not have any problems at all. WOO HOO!

" I can wear heels all day and night - 15 hours in heels is not a problem. I don't see why you are aways complaining about them" ( my constant boast which i really feel is true. But she changed the rules!)
Ad so she said: Really , then i guess you wont mind doing your maid work all day for a double shift wearing heels. Maybe these nice red ones to compliment your gray dress!", I said.
I reminded her that these were higher than normal and one size too small so they were extremely uncomfortable and tight .
" Too bad!! YOU DONT HAVE PROBLEM WEARING HIGH HEELS ALL DAY AND NIGHT -REMEMBER!!
You didn't say only a certain type of heel. SO unless you want to go out barefoot or just in your nylons for the entire day on this sloppy rainy day - you are headed out the door in those red heels one size too small and you can take them off tonight at 10 PM. Have a fun day"

This photo shot with my 1960's vintage Zenza Bronica S2A on Ilford film. Photo taken at Fish Lake in the mountains above Whitehorse, Southern Yukon.
Unfortunately, unbenownst to me, the old Bronica camera was suffering from a shutter problem. I got two perfect photos from the roll of 12 then each succeeding image had more and more of the frame cut off at the top. This image is the last of the useable frames, but it is one of only four that are. Every other image was ruined. The following roll was even worse, and then the camera locked up completely.
If any one out there has experience with this sort of issue on the S2/S2A, perhaps you could offer some suggestions in the comments, below? It really is a shame because, as you can see, this camera is capable of taking some striking images, and other than the shutter issue, it's a beautiful unit in mint condition.
I absolutely love the new Marvel theme! The figs are amazing! And if you notice Deadpools leg printing its perfect XD

Minneapolis, Minnesota
A few weeks ago Julia and I took an intro to bouldering class at Minneapolis Bouldering Project and loved it. Our 2019 goals include both working on our fitness and trying new activities/fostering new hobbies, so after work today we joined the bouldering gym.
Bouldering is a form of rock climbing without using ropes or harnesses. It was originally developed as a way for rock climbers to practice more complex climbing moves at a safe distance from the ground - typically bouldering gyms' walls aren't more than 20 feet tall and have cushioned floors, in case of falls. Today, bouldering has become a sport in itself.
The different color coded routes on a wall in a bouldering gym are called problems. From the easiest, yellow, to the hardest, white, the problems are designed to not only test your physical ability, but also function as a puzzle for your mind as well.

During the interruption to power supply to the tramway in the city centre on 18 May 2023, tram 267 was stranded at St. Andrew Square tramstop with potential passengers to the western suburbs and airport redirected to West End. Two breakdown recovery trucks were seen in front of the tram at the time of passing but had vanished later with the tram still there.
I will accept my Nobel Prize with grace and humility for solving this age old problem. Thank you all :-)

ODC: WHO AM I
Among other things, I am a problem solver. We got a package of these puzzles; the kids and I spent a fair amount of time testing our patience and determination... proving to ourselves that we are able to solve these problems. Eventually... problem solved!!!

I made two visits to this Cathedral because I arrived too late on Monday to gain access to the interior of the church.
St Canice's Cathedral, also known as Kilkenny Cathedral, is a cathedral of the Church of Ireland in Kilkenny city, Ireland. It is in the ecclesiastical province of Dublin.Previously the cathedral of the Diocese of Ossory, it is now one of six cathedrals in the United Dioceses of Cashel and Ossory.
The present building dates from the 13th century and is the second longest cathedral in Ireland. Beside the cathedral stands a 100 ft 9th-century round tower. St Canice's tower is an example of a well-preserved 9th-century "Celtic Christian" round tower. It is dedicated to St Canice. It is one of only two such medieval round towers in Ireland that can be climbed to the top.
Dublin has two cathedrals and both are Church Of Ireland. If you travel around the island of Ireland you will begin to notice that all the ‘interesting’ cathedrals are owned by the Church Of Ireland and this presents a bit of a problem which I will explain below.
Last year I visited St. Anne's Cathedral in Belfast and there was a sign at the entrance indicating that contributions were appreciated. However, while in the building an aggressive lady approached me and informed that I as I did not have a ticket I must come back to the desk with her and pay a 6 pounds sterling entrance fee. A few days later I wrote a negative review on TripAdvisor describing the cathedral as a commercial enterprise rather than a house of God and this upset the management at the Cathedral.
While in Belfast I visitedsome other churches [RC and Presbyterian] and the experience was completely different.
Since then I have visited many churches and I have noticed the pattern in that the Church Of Ireland charge entrance fees while other religions do not. RC churches often request a donation. I object to fixed entrance fees to churches because they exclude people who do not have money. The other issue it is that once a fixed fee is introduced the church in question becomes a commercial museums rather than a place or worship.
In the case of St.Canice’s Cathedral the entrance fee is low at four Euro [there is an additional charge for access to the round tower] and I cannot dispute that it is good value for money if you are interested in history both European and local. If you are interested in religion you may be disappointed to discover that the Cathedral’s purpose was to glorify the ruling classes and God is/was somewhat neglected.

Fear of the unknown, the fear of losing own physical or mental health, or worse, having already lost it, possible problems with work (if a work has it), old age advancing, awareness of the existence of a Higher Being, are just some of the reasons that push people to search for a contact with the Divine, with the supernatural, leading them to plead for help, but this is not enough to completely explain the close link fact of absolute devotion and enormous affection that the people of Catania (province) have towards their young martyr Agatha; an entire city partecipate in these days to ceremony and procession, one can not help but ask this question, what binds in such a profound and peculiar citizens to their Patron Saint Agata? Maybe I was lucky enough to capture photographically what is a partial response (see my photos of the 2016 feast): a child at a very early age is brought to the window from her mother while passing the float of St. Agatha, so it's easy to understand... the devotion and attachment to the Martyr starts very young , transmitted by their parents as a treasure to be preserved and grow throughout their lives, which leads you in the days of the feast to a great collective.
This is a short-long report I did this year 2018, in the city of Catania (Sicily) in occasion of the feast of her patron saint Agatha, which took place on the 3, 4 and 5 February (this dates commemorates the martyrdom of the young Saint), and on 17 August too (this date celebrates the return to Catania of her remains, after these had been transferred to Constantinople by the Byzantine general Maniaces as war booty, and there remained for 86 years), when the Sicilian city is dressed up to feast, with a scent of orange blossom and mandarins, and its citizens show that they possess an extraordinary love and bond with the young martyr saint Agatha.
The religious sicilian feast of Saint Agatha is the most important feast of Catania, its inhabitants from five centuries, during the three days of the feast in honor of her "Santuzza" (young Saint), create a unique setting, with celebrations and rituals impressive, which means that this event is regarded as the third religious festival in the world (some say the second ...) after the "Semana Santa" in Seville and the "Corpus Christi" in Cuzco, Peru. Unlike other religious holidays, more sober, to Sant'Agata highlights a vocation exuberant typical of the south Italy, who loves to combine the sacred with the profane.
The cult of the young Santa dates back to the third century, when the teenager Agatha was martyred for refusing the roman proconsul Quintiziano. One year after the death of the young Agatha, on 5 February of the year 252, his virginal veil was carried in procession, and it is said it was able to save Catania from destruction due to a devastating eruption of Mount Etna.
The festivities begin with the procession of Candlemas (this year were in greater number, perhaps 14 instead of the 11 years of the other years); the "Candlemas" are giant Baroque wooden "candlesticks" paintings in gold, each representing an ancient guild (butchers, fishmongers, grocers, greengrocers, etc.), which are brought by eight devotees; the "cannalore" (candlemas) anticipate the arrival of the "float" of Saint Agatha during the procession. Devotees, men and women, wearing a traditional garment similar to a white bag, cinched at the waist by a black rope, gloves and a white handkerchief, and a black velvet cap, and it seems that such clothing evoke nightgown with the qule the Catanese, awakened with a start by the touch of the bells of the Cathedral, welcomed the naval port, in 1126, the relics of the Holy which fell from Constantinople. On float, consisting of a silver chariot sixteenth of thirty tons, which is driven by a double and long line of devotees with the robust and long ropes, takes place the bust of Saint Agatha, completely covered with precious stones and jewels. On February 4, the parade celebrates the so-called "external path" that touches some places of martyrdom in the city of Catania; the next day, the 5 instead the procession along the "aristocrat path", which runs along the main street, Via Etnea, the parlor of Catania. On this day the devotees carry on their shoulders the long candles of varying thickness, there are some not very big, others are fairly heavy, but some skim exceptional weights.

La paura dell’ignoto, il timore di perdere la salute fisica o psichica, o peggio, averla già persa, possibili problemi col lavoro (per chi un lavora l’ha) o peggio non averlo dovendo così “inventarsi” la giornata, la vecchiaia che avanza, la consapevolezza dell’esistenza di un Essere Superiore, sono solo alcuni dei motivi che spingono gli uomini a cercare un contatto col Divino, col Sovrannaturale, portandoli ad invocare il Suo aiuto, ma tutto ciò non basta assolutamente a spiegare lo stretto legame fatto di assoluta devozione ed enorme attaccamento che gli abitanti di Catania (e provincia) hanno nei confronti della loro “Santuzza” la giovanissima martire Agata; nel vedere partecipare quella che sembra essere una città intera a questi giorni di rito e processione, non ci si può non porre questa domanda, cosa lega in maniera così profonda e peculiare i cittadini Catanesi alla loro Santa Patrona Agata? Forse ho avuto la fortuna di cogliere fotograficamente (vedi le mie foto della festa del 2016) quella che è una risposta parziale e certamente non unica alla domanda: un bimbo in tenerissima età viene portato alla finestra dalla sua mamma mentre passa la vara di S.Agata, ecco… la devozione e l’attaccamento alla giovanissima Martire inizia da piccolissimi, trasmessa dai propri genitori (e non solo…) come un tesoro da custodire e coltivare per tutta la vita, che porta che nei giorni della festa ad un fantastico rito collettivo al quale nessun Catanese sembra non possa o non voglia rinunciare.
Questa è un breve e lungo report, da me realizzato nel febbraio di quest’anno 2018, nella città di Catania (Sicilia) in occasione della festa della sua giovane santa patrona Agata, che ha avuto luogo come ogni anno il 3, il 4 ed il 5 di febbraio (questa data commemora il martirio della Santa giovinetta), festa che viene ripetuta anche il 17 agosto (questa data rievoca il ritorno a Catania delle sue spoglie, dopo che queste erano state trasferite a Costantinopoli da parte del generale bizantino Maniace come bottino di guerra, spoglie che ivi rimasero per 86 anni); per questa occasione la città siciliana è vestita a festa con profumi di fiori d'arancio e mandarini, coi suoi cittadini che mostrano di possedere uno straordinario amore e legame con la giovane martire Agata.
Gli abitanti di Catania, oramai da cinque secoli, nei tre giorni della festa in onore della "Santuzza", danno vita ad una scenografia unica, con celebrazioni e riti imponenti, che fanno si che questo evento sia considerato come la terza festa religiosa al mondo (qualcuno dice la seconda ...) dopo la "Semana Santa" di Siviglia ed il "Corpus Domini" a Cuzco, in Perù. A differenza di altre feste religiose, più sobrie, quella di Sant'Agata mette in luce una vocazione esuberante tipica del meridione, che ama unire il sacro col profano.
Il culto della giovane Santa risale al terzo secolo, quando l'adolescente Agata fu martirizzata per aver rifiutato il proconsole romano Quintiziano. Un anno dopo la morte della giovane Agata, avvenuta il 5 febbraio dell'anno 252, il suo velo virginale venne portato in processione, e si narra esso riuscì a salvare Catania dalla sua distruzione a causa di una devastante eruzione del vulcano Etna.
I festeggiamenti iniziano con il corteo delle "candelore", queste sono dei giganteschi e pesanti "candelabri" in legno, in stile barocco, dipinti in oro, ognuna rappresentante una antica corporazione (macellai, pescivendoli, pizzicagnoli, fruttivendoli, ecc.), che vengono portati da otto devoti, le quali "cannalore" durante la processione anticipano l'arrivo della "vara" di Sant'Agata. I devoti, sia donne che uomini, indossano un tipico indumento simile ad un sacco bianco, stretto in vita da una cordicella nera, guanti ed un fazzoletto bianchi, ed infine una papalina di velluto nero, sembra che tale abbigliamento rievochi la camicia da notte con la quale i Catanesi, svegliatisi di soprassalto dal tocco improvviso delle campane del Duomo, accolsero al porto navale, nel 1126, le reliquie della Santa che rientravano da Costantinopoli. Sulla vara, costituita da un carro argentato cinquecentesco di trenta quintali, trainata da una doppia e lunghissima fila di devoti tramite delle robuste e lunghe funi, prende posto il busto di Sant'Agata, completamente ricoperto di pietre preziose e gioielli. Il 4 febbraio, il corteo compie il cosiddetto "giro esterno" che tocca alcuni luoghi del martirio nella città catanese; il giorno dopo, il 5, il corteo percorre il "giro aristocratico", che percorre la strada principale, la via Etnea, salotto buono di Catania. In questo giorno i devoti portano in spalla dei lunghi ceri di vario spessore, ce ne sono alcuni non molto grossi, altri sono discretamente pesanti, ma alcuni sfiorano pesi eccezionali.

For a while I’ve been wanting to make a train, only problem I had was that I didn’t really want to set up a track every time I used it. So I thought “I should give it steering” Then I thought “let’s put a buggy motor in it”and that’s how the drift train was born.
I wanted this model to still be compatible with the standard lego train track so there was a bit of challenge trying to get all the electronics inside the body but luckily the buggy motor fit in really nicely. The motor itself I s basically holding everything together. I did have to add a little rubber wheel at the front to give it a bit of traction other wise it has a lot of understeer.
This model uses 1 lego buggy motor, one lego M motor, 1 lego v2 IR receiver and 1 lego rechargeable battery pack.
