New from the labs of Colt, Project PARA involves providing paratroopers with dedicated weapons, instead of weapons adapted for paratrooper use. One concept was an OICWS, which included four models. This is a SMG/Compact Carbine model, and comes with jungle/forest camouflage finish. Fires 6.8 SPC.
More to come. :)
Are you ready for v. 2.0?

Около пяти месяцев тому у меня родилась идея как можно интересно сфотографировать девушку, далее несколько, а потом это переросло в фото проект "In the water"...
И вот прошло почти пол года все фотографии уже отсняты, отредактирована одна
Спасибо всем кто сотрудничал со мной особое спасибо всем моделям, дизайнерам, визажистам...
Хочу представить вашему вниманию 1 фотокарточку серии
"In the water" это девушку зовут Анна спасибо большое.
Фото серия очень концептуальная и несет большой смысл, но об этом чуть позже.
P.S:
Скоро будет много интересного и новостей.
35 days, 35 photos, 1 Explore, and one heck of a learning experience later, and my friend, Brian, and I are done with Project 35. The whole thing started because Brian bought a Canon 35mm f/1.4L, which is my favorite lens to use. I was so happy for him because I know what the lens is capable of, especially paired up with a full frame camera. So, I threw out a proposal to him to take a one-a-day photo challenge using the 35L for 35 days. I wanted to do it because my original intent was to use the 35L on my 40D and keep it there, just to see how it performed with a crop camera. But little did I know that I would learn quite a bit about myself as a shooter and this lens.
As much as I enjoyed having the 35L on my 40D, I kept wanting to put the lens back on my 5D2. I learned that I love the 35mm focal length on a full frame because of many reasons. First of all, I think it is the perfect focal length for me because I think 50mm is too close and the 24mm would be too wide, especially on full frame. Secondly, the 35L + 5D2 is just “magical” together. It’s like peanut butter and jelly, Sonny and Cher, and Bono and the Edge. I don’t know how to explain it and why that combo just goes so well together. I feel the same way about the 135L + 5D2 combo - magical! And thirdly, I like the 35mm on a full frame because I am able to tell a good story within a photo. It allows me more without having to step back too far.
Now that the Project 35 is completed, I feel a sense of freedom. I’m gonna play with my 135L or maybe my 50L now. It does feel good though to limit my lens choice for the last 35 days.
The Hungarian Museum of Applied Arts is organising a project on recycleing the leftovers of the enameled roof tiles of the building - into jewellery. The amazing buliding was constructed between 1893 and 1896 in the sprit of the secession. The ceramic ornaments and tiles were made by the famous Zsolnay factory.
I received 3 palm size, very dirty pieces and made my experiments with them, finally I decided the design.
It is a fantastic material. By flex shaft I can cut it and the more that 110 years old enamel does not peal off at all! You can see on the picture that even on the tiny parts it is intact. The back is a porous but strong whiteish ceramic.
SO... I made this sterling pendant that you can fill up with the Zsolnay ceramic tiles. You've got the choice of 4 coloures, you've got 8-8 square tiles and there are also 2 triangles. In the future I plan to make some additional fillings too. You slide the tiles into the frame and then you pull the black leather string thight that closes the top.
I asked my mathematician brother how many combinations can one create with this setup. He made some quick calculations and the result is:
If you use all 4 coloures, both the triangles and the square tiles you can make 983040 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) different pendants (including that on the back side you have the "opposite" combination)
Let's say that I would sell this jewel for 300 money (have not decided yet). It means that for this price you have 983040 pendants, so you only pay 0.00030517578 money for one pendant. It is practicly free!! Don't miss this occasion!!
One more reason to buy it: If you wear every day a different combination, you will be more than 2693 years old when you finish it - and by that time you can update the coulours and shapes to extend it by a couple of thousand years.
Bebe sleeps with her eyes open. It's kind of creepy. Also, no matter how gently you try to wake her up, she always seems shocked. I swear, just for second, she has no idea where she is or who you are.
Craftivism: Making a Difference in the World~ One Stitch at a Time
KnitLit group, spring 2011 Haverstraw Middle School, Haverstraw, NY
People are doing it. They are doing it on subways, in restaurants and on airplanes. They are doing it in baseball stadiums, movie theaters and in the park. They are doing Craftivism and everywhere you turn you can find people of all ages, races, creeds and religions participating in what has become a global phenomenon of making the world a better place- one stitch at a time.
The term “craftivism”, hybrid of the words craft + activism, was coined in 2003 by creator and knitter, Betsy Greer. It is a movement based upon the idea that a person’s time and talent can really make a difference in the world. Most craftivists are knitters and crocheters looking to find different and more meaningful ways to share their craft and it is being used to bring attention to a multitude of causes. Craftivists help to bring about positive change in the world through their skills.
Some of the causes targeted in the craftivism movement are environmentalism, anti-capitalism, anti-sweatshop, anti-war a well as various personal causes such as breast cancer awareness, literacy, homelessness, domestic violence and children born into poverty. Knitters and crocheters around the world participate in covert “yarn-bombing” escapades, mimicking graffiti street art only with hand knitted fabrics sewn around trees, light poles and statues using their art to beautify the things around them.
It is here that I introduce you to New Yorker Betsy Rodman, a fellow knitter and craftivist. Betsy is the founder of Project Scarf. Project Scarf is bringing knitters from all over the world to join in creating the world’s longest scarf. Separate sections of knitted scarves are sent in to and assembled by Betsy to form a larger scarf. What does one do with the world’s longest scarf, you might ask? When the project is complete, the sections will be disassembled and the individual scarves are distributed to various organizations to provide to help keep warm those who have little.
Betsy also founded the KnitLit program in her local school. This program teaches kids the skill of knitting. Squares are knitted and sewn together to form blankets which are also distributed to those in need. The kids involved in the program choose where to donate. However, this ain’t your grandma's knitting bee- these kids also listen to great books on audio and discuss them as they are knitting. Betsy has had tremendous success in her school and hopes to one day be able to bring KnitLit to schools across the nation. I got to ask Betsy a few questions about herself and her programs.

After a rickety start to the day, with waking up and not being in the mood for a run, I did in the end do after getting back from buying some bits for cooking tonight.
I did, according to my running watch, have my fastest 5 mile (just over) run today with an average 12.8kmh pace - apparently I run better when the interest in doing so isn't there to begin with...
The picture is very much a work in action of the meal, and once finished is a simple but tasty meal. Yum!
Currently working on the interior wiring, brake lines, panels, etc.

Is it art? Is it graffiti? Is it two abandoned houses? Or is it a uniquely Detroit phenomenon called the Heidelberg Project? The main part of the project is on Heidelberg Street. These two houses are on Mt. Elliott Street at Heidelberg. If you visit Detroit, do not miss seeing this.

Saw this makeshift 4th of July display on my way to work today. There was one on each of their banisters leading up the steps to the home.

On the heels of our teddy bear success, I used some of the supplies we bought to make Nina a little doll. I saw this pattern and couldn't resist, and it came out spectacularly. It might have been a little ambitious for Nina (so we picked the bear), but I did it in one day and she looks amazing.
I started out in flannel, like the bear, but the pieces are so small it got kinda unwieldy. Once I switched to felt it was a breeze. I used this great scotch tape trick to get the little pieces cut out just right. Then the whole thing is just worked in tiny little blanket stitches, which is exactly the kind of thing I find outrageously relaxing.
I seem to have included more neck than the final example uses, but there wasn't any problem with it. I put her head on upside down, which made the hair piece fit wrong, but I was able to fix that so you couldn't tell. Nina also had the idea to change the hair, and make it longer, with slits cut in it so she could play with it. It worked perfectly! (I forgot to sew a final stitch securing the back of the head onto the hair. This means that when she's upside down, her hair flips forward like she's wearing a bald cap. Haha. However, my client forbade me to fix this.)
I can't tell you how great it felt to show her my progress as I worked on getting the facial embroidery just right, ask "How's this looking?" after each step, and have Nina make the human version of the :D face. THIS CHILD WAS DELIGHTED. I did that!
Also wow how cute those red-crayon cheeks look. SO CUTE.
The doll was dubbed Ella, which I believe was after my baby cousin, because I told Nina that I had cousins with names very close to the Frozen princesses. Hee. Thankfully, Ella joined a doll family with siblings that have clothes to fit her, so she is dressed less impecuniously than I left her.
Spiral, one of the common things in the world. They are everywhere in our daily lives, but we tend to ignore their existence. I don't even need to go outside to find them. These pictures remind me that everything in this world are all connected in some ways in this universe, and it worths us to think about what is the essence of the matters when we enjoying the beauty of the nature.
