Pullback view of how I did some shots of salsa and salads.
Strobist: A large sheet of paper (wasn't as white as I wanted it though...) for a background sweep. Two SB800s bouncing off of free standing white three ring binders on both sides. All setting on my desktop.
Yes, I ate some when I was done and before I took this pullback view...
And, yes, I spilled on my shirt.
The SNOT bracketing represent the front and rear bumpers. The office is the 1x3 and TT cockpit combo. Flares are the slopes and fenders. Other than that, I'm scared about bloating the model beyond recognition, and besides I wouldn't be able to get the stripes on. But after seeing the new Tudor USC-spec Z4 GTE's BatCSL-inspired livery, I got the urge to replicate the model in the smallest scale that can use the new pullback piece with full force. I searched for a 4-wide Z4 model, found it, and then chucked it, because it looked more like a Cadillac big-engine concept than an actual Z4.
Well, good luck to my butt, I guess.
Also, when will Tommy-senpai notice me?
Quneitra was once a bustling town in the Golan Heights and southwestern Syria's administrative capital with a population of 37,000. The word Quneitra derives from Qantara, or 'bridge', between Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine. Known for its abundant water resources, it has been continuously inhabited since the Stone Age. Over the millennia, many peoples, including Arameans, Assyrians, Caldeans, Persians, Greeks, and Arabs have occupied it. St. Paul, it is said, passed through Quneitra on his way from Damascus to Jerusalem.
In 1967, during the six-day war, Israel captured Quneitra. It then became a site of many battles but, except for a brief interlude, remained in Israeli hands until 1974, when a UN-brokered agreement led to an Israeli pullback. Before withdrawing, however, Quneitra was evacuated and systematically destroyed by the Israeli army (based on eyewitness accounts; UN General Assembly resolution 3240 in 1974 condemned Israel's role in its destruction. Israel disputes this account). Many prominent Western reporters, agreeing with the UN and Syrian version of events, saw this as nothing short of an act of wanton brutality — a whole town methodically ransacked, dynamited, and bulldozed.
Welly 1/64
Welly No. 52069
Car: MINI Cooper
Year: 2001
Color: Liquid Yellow
I already have a MINI Cooper from Welly but the one I have has the US Flag on the roof instead of just black paint. Checking the photo of the base of that car, it seems that it used a different base code than this one, but that is probably because the one I already have is a pullback version while this one isn't. This one came in a Speed City packaging but I am not sure if it's a new release or just a recycled one from previous years. I do wish it had a different body color though because it really looks similar to the one I already have.

Pullback shot showing the setup used to photograph baby chicks. The stage is a plastic cutting board supported by two large coffee cups, illuminated from below by a strobe firing into an angled white card.. The strobe at right provides hard, grazing light to highlight chest feathers and produce catchlights for the eyes. (This one gets moved around some.)
The illuminated background is a nylon panel backed with a BCA photoflood (just a light bulb, basically) and the seamless backdrop is a sheet of inkjet paper.

Llama la atención el empaque, con frases como "Galant: Enjoy for first", o "Small and exquisite car pocket mini go well up to bridle the ultimate winner".
Son plásticos y a fricción. También han sido reportados en Holanda y Perú. Me encantaría saber si su fabricante también ha sacado otros modelos.

Ju Xing, amongst others, make their own interpretation of this bus who's identity still eludes me and one which is unlikely to be of a completely generic design. Available in normal and pullback variants its perfectly acceptable quality wise for its low price point with a decent amount of metal in its construction and a full interior.
Found recently at Hiper Garaf.

Stocks have jumped out of the gate in the first two months of the year, clawing back the lion's share of last year's steep third quarter losses. In particular, cyclical sectors such as technology, energy and real estate have seen substantial inflows as investors cheer a more dovish Federal Reserve, ongoing trade negotiations between the U.S. and China, and a round of quarterly earnings that have exceeded Wall Street's expectations. Also, the chances of the economy slipping into recession look to have reduced.
"Because the markets weakened and Fed officials now see that the economy and inflation are weak, there has been a shift to an easier stance," wrote Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, a Connecticut-based hedge fund. "I have lowered my odds of a U.S. recession coming prior to the U.S. presidential election to about 35%," he continued, per a note on LinkedIn.
Those who want to take advantage of 2019's top performing sectors should consider using leveraged exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are specifically designed to magnify short-term price movements. For example, if an index comprising technology stocks is up 1%, a tracking leveraged ETF providing three times exposure would be up 3%. Traders should be aware that leveraged ETFs reset daily – therefore, returns over a holding period of more than one day may not reflect the fund's advertised leverage due to compounding effects. Let's consider several trading ideas relating to leveraged sector ETFs.
Direxion Daily Technology Bull 3X ETF (TECL)
Created in 2008, the Direxion Daily Technology Bull 3X ETF (TECL) seeks to provide three times the daily return of the Technology Select Sector Index. The benchmark index consists of U.S. large-cap technology names such as Apple Inc. (AAPL), Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) and Google parent company Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL). The fund's tight 0.08% average spread and daily turnover of more than 400,000 shares make it a suitable instrument for all forms of short-term trading. TECL, with assets under management (AUM) of $550.57 million and offering a 0.39% dividend yield, is up 45.76% year to date (YTD) as of Feb. 28, 2019. The ETF charges a 1.17% management fee, which has a minimal impact on short stays.
After bottoming out at $68.96 in late December, TECL's share price has rallied almost 80% to close at $123.56 on Feb. 27. Traders who want to capitalize on this strongly trending market should look for entry points on pullbacks to the 20-day simple moving average (SMA). If the fund's price continues higher, the SMA can then be used as a trailing stop to let profits run. Those who hold open positions should consider moving the stop to the breakeven point when the price nears $130 – an area where it may find resistance from the 200-day SMA.
Direxion Daily Energy Bull 3X ETF (ERX)
The Direxion Daily Energy Bull 3X ETF (ERX), with net assets that exceed $400 million, aims to return three times the daily investment results of the Energy Select Sector Index. Energy sector heavyweights Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM) and Chevron Corporation (CVX) dominate the underlying index, carrying a cumulative weighting of 41.75%. Tight spreads and deep liquidity make this ETF an energy trader's favorite. The fund yields 2.29% and has an expense ratio of just over 1%. As of Feb. 28, 2019, ERX has returned 46.27%.
The ERX share price fell off a cliff in the fourth quarter of 2018, following oil prices sharply lower. The fund bottomed in late December on climactic volume and has since tracked higher with only minor retracements. Those who wish to ride the upward momentum should enter on dips to $22, where the price finds a confluence of support from a two-month uptrend line and 20-day SMA. Traders could set take-profit orders at key resistance levels such as $26 and $32. Close open positions if the price falls much below the trendline, as this invalidates the short-term momentum setup.
Direxion Daily MSCI Real Estate Bull 3x ETF (DRN)
Launched in 2009, the Direxion Daily MSCI Real Estate Bull 3x ETF (DRN) attempts to replicate three times the daily performance of MSCI US REIT Index. The fund, with AUM of $43.66 million, suits traders who want an aggressive play in equity real estate investment trusts (REITs). It tilts more toward commercial REITs than the tracked index but still provides ample exposure to residential real estate.
Top allocations in the benchmark include Simon Property Group, Inc. (SPG) at 6.61%, Prologis, Inc. (PLD) at 4.70% and Public Storage (PSA) at 4.04%. A 0.63% average spread may eat too much into profits for scalpers but shouldn't overly affect swing traders who can let winning trades run over several days to cover slightly higher trading costs. DRN charges a management fee of 1.09% and has returned 41.86% YTD as of Feb. 28, 2019.
DRN shares rallied above their August 2018 peak earlier this month but have recently backed away from those highs to provide a swing trading opportunity. The fund's price should find solid support at the current price from a horizontal line that connects the July and December swing highs. Traders may want to wait for a reversal candlestick pattern, such as hammer or piercing line, to confirm that upward momentum has resumed before opening a position. Think about placing a stop-loss order under this month's low and booking profits on a test of the 2016 high at $28.64.

You would have thought it would be an unusual niche copying the overtly generic castings of the Toys R Us Fast Lane 1/64 line but its surprising how many Chinese toy makers do. Not the full array but mainly the pseudo-futuristic looking Fire Engine with its angular cab and wraparound windscreen.
Qizhuo Toys have taken this unique cab design and used it for a scissor lift truck in Fire Engine guise. Chunky but substantial with good solid build quality and obligatory pullback function.

Darda (toy)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Darda is the name of a German toy car racing set (and related items) which was most popular in Europe and the USA throughout the '80s and '90s."
"The unique selling point of the sets was the special Darda Motor, invented by Helmut Darda in 1970, propelled the Matchbox/Hot Wheels-sized cars at speeds of up to 30 mph (50 km/h). The pullback motor was wound up by pressing down the rear of the car and rolling it forwards and backwards on its wheels. Whilst winding the car up the motor clicks and once fully wound the tone of clicks deepen to signify that it can be wound no more."

Seenotrettung ist #Unverhandelbar
Menschenrechte sind #Unverhandelbar
Demo in Berlin, 07.08.2021
Demonstration unter den Motti: - Seenotrettung ist #Unverhandelbar - Free the Ships - Stop the Pushbacks - Menschenrechte jetzt! - am 07. August 2021 in Berlin.
Mehrere hundert Menschen zogen vom Paul-Löbe-Haus bis zum Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz.
Veranstalter: Seebrücke Berlin gemeinsam mit einem breiten Bündnis (Seebrücke - Schafft sichere Häfen, Sea-Watch, SOS MEDITERRANEE, Mare Liberum, Sea-Eye, RESQSHIP, Amnesty International)
Die Demo in Berlin war Teil des europaweiten Protests „Seenotrettung ist #unverhandelbar“. Auch in vielen weiteren deutschen Städten gab es dazu Demos und Kundgebungen.
Protestiert wurde ganz aktuell auch für eine Ende der Blockade und für eine schnelle Zuweisung von Häfen in Italien für die zivilen Seenotrettungsschiffe „Sea Watch 3“ und „Ocean Viking“ mit über 800 Menschen an Bord, die schon viele Tage lang mit den Geretteten an Bord auf See ausharren müssen.
Am 06. + 07.08.2021 hatte das menschenunwürdige Warten endlich ein Ende und die Schiffe konnten in Italien anlegen. Die Geretteten durften an Land…
Aus dem Aufruf des Bündnisses:
„Allein in diesem Jahr ertranken bereits über 800 Menschen im Mittelmeer. Mehr als 14.000 Menschen wurden völkerrechtswidrig von der sogenannten Libyschen Küstenwache zurück
nach Libyen gebracht, wo ihnen Folter und schwerste Menschenrechtsverletzungen drohen.
Die zivilen Seenotrettungsorganisationen füllen seit Jahren eine Lücke, die die EU niemals hätte entstehen lassen dürfen. Die Lücke, die durch fehlende völkerrechtlich gebotene
Seenotrettung entsteht, fordert viele hunderte Menschenleben jährlich. Dies ist seit Jahren offensichtlich, doch die EU und ihre Mitgliedstaaten tun alles dafür, die tödliche Grenze auszubauen und Menschenrechte systematisch zu missachten: Notrufe werden ignoriert,
illegale Rückführungen koordiniert, Schiffe blockiert und Retter*innen und Geflüchtete angeklagt.“
„Wir wollen nicht von Land aus zuschauen, wie Menschen aufgrund staatlicher Ignoranz ertrinken, auf Schiffen unnötig lange ausharren oder rechtswidrig nach Libyen verschleppt werden. Als Europäer*innen wollen wir nicht nur das rassistisch motivierte Sterbenlassen an den EU-Außengrenzen beenden, sondern auch Verantwortung übernehmen – für Fluchtursachen ausgelöst durch unsere koloniale Geschichte, unsere gegenwärtigen Handels- und Wirtschaftspolitiken und
für die von uns maßgeblich verursachte Klimakrise, die bereits ausgebeutete Länder besonders hart trifft.“
„Seenotrettung ist #unverhandelbar!
Daher fordern wir von der aktuellen und zukünftigen Bundesregierung, dass sie vehement an der Umsetzung folgender Ziele arbeitet:
1. Alle zivilen Rettungsschiffe freilassen & die zivile Seenotrettung unterstützen!
2. Die Unterstützung der sogenannten Libyschen Küstenwache sowie alle Push- und Pullbacks im Mittelmeer sofort beenden!
3. Ein europäisches Seenotrettungsprogramm etablieren!
4. Sichere und legale Fluchtwege nach Europa einrichten“
