Sooo... I just finished working on a little electronics project to trigger Nikon cameras over its Infrared remote sequence. This board is designed to act as a programmable intervalometer, plain ol' manual remote, computer controlled remote, and access to an easily modifiable program with the ability to upload code over the serial port into usb. Whoa. That was a long sentence. Sorry.
Should I start maybe selling a kit for these? My dad said people might want these. I don't know... It would be good for learning soldering, but I really don't know if I can sell stuff... The prototype was about 25 dollars as I recall, but if I made more, they would be a lot cheaper. Especially for the board. The FTDI usb cable is another twenty. Would anybody want one? It might be possible to sell. EDIT: Well, there's 225 views which is much higher than most of my photos, and no comments, so I guess not. That's okay. Less work for me... (But you just wait to see what I do with it in the future.)
I'm gonna make a little web page for it, for access to code, board designs, etc, and I'll edit this little description soon. EDIT: Seriously... When I get the motivation. 'NOTHER EDIT: I made the little hacked together write-up: etharooni.polorix.net/NikonRemote.html
Well... That made it seem like it was a much bigger deal than it is. It's really not an amazing board, but as this is a photography community, some people might want one.

The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

Return to the Western world! We spend one month in Croatia, and sample the joys of Central Europe by the Adriatic Sea.
Zagreb is thoroughly modern and beautiful, with a livelier local crowd, fresh markets, and more hidden gems than Prague or Budapest.
The Plitvice Lakes are one of the most awesome national parks we have visited so far.
Dubrovnik is like stepping back into the 1400s, all rocky hillside, stone streets, towering city walls, and Mediterranean blue sea.
Split is Croatia's second city, perched on the sea and built around the Roman ruins of Diocletian's Palace. We would love to come back here.

Orange contrast lane striping is clearly visible in this aerial photo of a work zone in Fife.
The contrast striping was added in this area where both directions of I-5 have been shifted to the right to make room for the work area in the median. Crews are building new bridges as part of the Puget Sound Gateway Program's SR 167 Completion Project. Shifting lanes can leave behind "ghost stripes" that can occasionally make it difficult to clearly see current striping. In addition, many people still drive through fast through work zones, endangering themselves, others and crew. This pilot project will help determine whether orange striping is an effective tool to increase work zone awareness and safety.
Washington is only the fifth state to experiment with orange contrast lane striping. We're gathering information about speeds, collisions, work zone intrusions and whether drivers more consistently maintain their lane. The orange lane striping will remain in place through fall 2023.
The information we gather will be submitted to the Federal Highway Administration in 2024 to help it determine if orange striping is something that can be used more often across the nation.
Sanad’s mother reads to him in Jordan as part of an effort called Drive to Read (DTR). Funded by USAID for three years, the program aimed to foster a love for reading and build a reading culture among the children of Jordan. DTR is a mobile library which takes educational and cultural activities into East Amman and Zarqa neighborhoods, where large concentrations of disadvantaged people live. Each bookmobile – one in East Amman and another one in Zarqa – is equipped with over 2,000 Arabic- and English-language books and acts as a magnet for families in search of interesting and fun activities to do.

The P-47 Thunderbolt, which would become one of the most successful and widely produced fighters in history, began as the brainchild of two Russian aircraft designers fleeing the Soviet Union—Alexander de Seversky and Alexander Kartveli. Kartveli had begun designing fighters for Seversky, including the P-35, and staying on with Seversky Aircraft after it was renamed Republic Aviation. Kartveli had designed the radial-engined P-43 Lancer and P-44 Rocket, and was working on the inline-engined XP-47 when the US Army Air Force cancelled all three programs in 1940, citing that they were inferior to the German Messerschmitt Bf 109.
Kartveli then proposed a new design based on the P-43/44, but much larger, with a turbocharged R-2800 Double Wasp engine, one of the most powerful radials available at the time. The size of the turbocharger and the engine meant that the fuselage had to be much larger as well; as the USAAF wanted an eight-gun fighter along the lines of the Supermarine Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane, the new design was equipped with elliptical wings containing eight .50 caliber machine guns. The resulting design, designated XP-47B Thunderbolt, was huge: it was 65 percent heavier than the P-43 and nearly twice the weight of the Spitfire. Even Kartveli himself referred to it as a “dinosaur.” When pilots saw it, they thought that its size and shape (and likely, its flying characteristics) resembled that of a milk jug, forever earning the Thunderbolt its moniker of “Jug.” Though the first XP-47B prototype crashed soon after its first flight in May 1941, its speed and performance were impressive.
Minor problems with the P-47B production version led to the P-47C, the first combat-ready version of the Thunderbolt, which arrived in England in January 1943. Assigned to the 4th Fighter Group, whose pilots were used to flying Spitfires, initially the Thunderbolt seemed a failure. It could not turn with either the Bf 109 or the new Focke-Wulf 190, and its climbing ability left much to be desired. Pilots hated the Thunderbolt’s size, its lack of performance as compared with the Spitfire, and its low ground clearance, though they did appreciate the comfortable and roomy cockpit, and especially the armor around it.
The indifferent performance of the P-47C and high accident rate led Republic to refine the design in the definitive P-47D variant, which introduced better cooling for the engine and, most importantly, paddle-bladed propeller blades. Now the Thunderbolt began to prove Kartveli’s faith in the fighter. The 56th Fighter Group, led by Hubert Zemke, had been trained from the start in the P-47 and benefited from earlier experience. Zemke, assisted by future aces Francis Gabreski and Robert Johnson, developed ambush tactics that emphasized the Thunderbolt’s advantage in weight; the P-47D’s improved engine and propeller gave it an edge over the Luftwaffe over 15,000 feet that the Germans were not able to equal until the introduction of the Messerschmitt 262 jet in 1944. This was a huge advantage for USAAF pilots, as the majority of air combat over Germany took place at altitudes of 20,000 feet. While the P-51 Mustang was more maneuverable, longer-ranged, and better in the vertical, it was Gabreski and Johnson, in their P-47s, who became the top American aces in Europe. In response to pilots complaining about the lack of rear vision in the “razorback” P-47D, Republic introduced the “bubbletop” version, which cut down the rear fuselage and added a P-51 style bubble canopy, giving the Thunderbolt pilot superb visibility.
What endeared the Thunderbolt to its pilots, however, was its legendary toughness. Even Blakeslee, who loathed his P-47C, admitted that it could take a pounding: he returned from a mission over France with 56 cannon holes in it. This was surpassed by Robert Johnson: attacked by first a flight of 16 Fw 190s and then another flown by Luftwaffe ace Egon Mayer, Johnson’s P-47D survived 250 hits that shattered his canopy, briefly set his aircraft on fire, and damaged the engine—Mayer actually ran out of ammunition trying to destroy Johnson’s aircraft. Since it was far more survivable than the inline-engined P-38 and P-51, much of the European Theater’s P-47s were shifted away from bomber escort and to 9th Air Force’s ground-attack force. Armed with rockets, bombs, and their eight machine guns, Thunderbolts proved to be devastating in this role, attacking anything that moved in Western Europe: by war’s end, ground attack P-47s had destroyed over 6000 tanks; it was especially deadly to trains, accounting for 9000 locomotives. 3752 German fighters became victims of P-47 pilots in the air. P-47Ds also served in the Pacific theater, though in fewer numbers compared to the P-38; nonetheless, they also turned in a stellar combat record, and the third highest ranking ace in the Pacific, Neel Kearby, was a Thunderbolt pilot. Allied air forces also flew P-47s, including the RAF (mainly in the Pacific), and expeditionary units of the Brazilian and Mexican Air Forces.
After war’s end, though more advanced “Pacific” versions of the Thunderbolt had been introduced in the P-47M/N, it was rapidly retired from service in favor of jets (namely the F-84 Thunderjet) and the P-51. A few lingered on until 1953 in Air National Guard service, when it was retired. France used a few P-47s during the Algerian War of Independence in the mid-1950s, while it persisted in South American air forces into the early 1970s. 15,686 P-47s were produced, making it second only to the P-51 in US service; today, about 47 survive with 16 currently flyable, though many more are under restoration.
This P-47 is painted in the colors of Francis Gabreski, two-war ace and the top American ace in the European theater. Gabreski started his combat career at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, then wangled an assignment to Europe as a liaison to Free Polish airmen in the RAF. This gained him valuable experience which he was able to translate to success, once he was assigned to the P-47-equipped 56th Fighter Group (known as the "Wolfpack"). By July 1944, Gabreski had shot down 28 Germans, tying him at the time with Richard Bong, the leading US ace in the Pacific. Unfortunately for Gabreski, a few days before he was due to go home, he accidentally hit the ground on a strafing mission and was captured.
Gabreski would resume his career after the end of World War II, and added 6.5 more kills in Korea flying F-86 Sabres, giving him a total of 34.5 victories and the title of the highest ranking living American ace (as Bong and the other leading Pacific ace, Thomas McGuire, did not survive World War II). Gabreski passed away in 2002.
Though this P-47, 44-89348, is meant to be Gabreski's HV-A, it is not accurately painted, with dark green over light gray; Gabreski's P-47 only had light gray undersurfaces and olive drab splotches over medium gray overall. The invasion stripes are accurate. This version of the Thunderbolt is actually a P-47M, a lightweight version of the P-47 designed to improve performance. Though the 56th FG did fly P-47Ms, it was after Gabreski was shot down. It is still on display at Lackland today.
