I finally got Fallout 4 working again. It stopped working for some reason and never got a chance to be apart of the big mod wave, but here I am now, ready to give you all something new. Sorry about how vanilla it looks. All I just did was get a ENB+Reshade preset. I will start taking much more quality shots later when I get everything working and down to my tastes. This is a new beginning, friends. :)

  

UPDATE: Fuck, it seems the game is still not acting right. I'm sorry everyone, but until I get this problem with the constant crashing solved once and for all, I am not gonna be able to take any shots and upload them here. I will continue playing FNV as per usual. I hope you all understand.

RIP Brendan Scanlon, aka SOLVE.

If anyone could tell me the name of the artist, I'd like to give credit to where credit is due. I just snapped the photo.

Reprocessed with Gimp. I think it looks much better than before.

Featured at the monthly folding challenge on the francophone origami forum.

 

Very good model. However, the folding sequence requiers a 12x12 grid and some 45° creases, the beauty of the result is obfuscated by that scaffolding.

 

So I devised the above express precrease method, hope it helps.

I arranged their stuff ... tried to compromise ... now both are unhappy! I'd say that's fair ;D

 

I don't think you'll have a problem to find Mari and Faye's shelves, right?

It's been a good 15 years since I've owned or played with a Rubik's Cube. But then I saw The Pursuit of Happyness a few weeks ago. For those who haven't seen the movie, the Rubik's Cube is featured in the movie. Well anyways, I decided to pick one up and see if I could learn how to solve the damn thing. The most I've ever been able to get is one side and two rows of each of the adjacent sides.

 

Only problem..everyone had gotten the same friggin' idea. Everywhere I went, I was told the same thing, "Sorry, we're sold out. Check back next week." Of course, I could have gotten it online, but I wanted it right away. So I kept shopping around, calling different Targets and Walmarts. Well last Saturday, I FINALLY found one while Jane and I were shopping at a Target(not our usual Target).

 

Well for the past four days, I've been playing with this thing. It's been driving Jane nuts. She keeps telling me to put it down. :D Well as of tonight I have finally solved the damn thing. I got home from work today and spent about an hour on it...and voila! Only took me FOUR effing days. haha. But I don't care. It's the first time I've ever solved it....without popping the pieces out with a screwdriver. :D I've gotten really good at solving 90% of it, which I can do fairly quick. It's the other 10% that takes me forever. My goal right now is to be able to solve it in 20 minutes or less.

 

Now that I've solved it and taken my picture, I'm off to mess it up and start over again. :D

The Koninklijke Marine (Royal Netherlands Navy) including HNLMS JAVA, HNLMS EVERSTEN and HNLMS DE RUYTER arrived in Sydney on 3 October 1930. The ships berthed at the Oceanic Steamship Company wharf and Burns Philp and Company Wharf in West Circular Quay. The Sydney Morning Herald reported on the 'unfamiliar spectacle' of the Dutch squadron arrival.

 

On 10 October, the squadron hosted a reception on board JAVA 'as a return for the hospitality they had received while in Sydney'. The SMH reported that distinguished guests were greeted by the Dutch Consul-General Petrus Ephrem Teppema, Madame Carmen Delprat Teppema and Rear-Admiral Kayser.

 

This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Samuel J. Hood Studio collection. Sam Hood (1872-1953) was a Sydney photographer with a passion for ships. His 60-year career spanned the romantic age of sail and two world wars. The photos in the collection were taken mainly in Sydney and Newcastle during the first half of the 20th century.

Study becomes easy when you want to learn. When you are searching for solutions. Some people know me as a photographer, but I am also a nurse. As a nurse I am a detective. A health detective, able to see a reason for two seemingly diverse indicators such as trouble concentrating and consuming large quantities of ice. The foundation of arriving at solutions in healthcare lies in the study of pathophysiology. I enjoy my role in healthcare. I like finding root causes, solutions and bringing about improvements in people's lives.

 

So, if you hate studying, then change your way of thinking about it. Find a way to benefit yourself or others through your increasing knowledge. You won't be worth a damn at what you want to do if you don't understand what you're doing. Those indicators? Iron deficiency anemia. Quick and easy solution? Get rid of the copper and aluminum cookware and replace it with cast iron. If that isn't possible, increase the intake of beef, turkey and beans.

While the girl was solving Math problems, I was trying to figure out how to catch this butterfly. I think, afterwards, my head hurt more than hers.

Goodbye Solve. We will miss your amazing art and your smiling face.

Quotes:

“We have an economy that is doing well for some. But we have greater inequality than any time since the Guilded Age.

 

We may be the first generation where our children inherit an America that is a little poorer and a little meaner than before.

 

I am a risky proposition. If you ask who will likely win the election, I’d consider myself still an underdog. The press may not think so, but I do. But the upside is enormous. The way the race is emerging, it’s between me and Hillary. In her attack on my experience, she is saying ‘I know how things are done. I can manage the existing system.’ I am saying the system needs to change. That’s my pitch. If you agree that more of the same is not sufficient, then I am your best bet. If the status quo is manageable, then you have other choices.

 

This will be a sequential race, like it was for Kerry in the primary. It’s all up for grabs in the early states. Democratic primary voters are not inspired by Hillary, but they respect her. I do better with Independents and Republicans. With Hillary, the Democrats know what they are going to get. They are not yet sure if they can hand me the keys to the car.”

 

Question on math & science education:

 

“A whole generation got into math and science because of Apollo. The President has to talk about it in a way that has not been done recently. It’s a subtle thing. In the last several years, I have been shocked by the degree of anti-intellectualism that has been promulgated by the Bush Administration. He jokes about being a C student. ‘I’m not big on science. I know what I think.’ Kids absorb that. I’d like to spend eight years extolling the importance of science and technology and problem solving and critical thinking.”

 

“Part of the job of the next President is to make the Federal Government cool again. We have lost so much talent in Federal agencies. What smart kid is saying ‘my goal is to work in the patent office.’ They think it’s a bureaucracy.”

Roughly 100 km north of the polar circle in southwest Greenland lies the Arctic Circle Trail. This long distance trail stretches for 170 km from the international airport of Greenland in Kangerlussuaq to Greenland’s second largest city Sisimiut. During the summer months from June to September, the trail is free of snow and offers a spectacular hike from the inland to Greenland’s coast. Except for a few cabins and one bridge over the biggest river the trail offers no luxuries, not even cell phone reception. The landscape along the path is very diverse, changing with each kilometre one comes closer to the coast.

 

The international airport at Kangerlussuaq enjoys around 300 clear-sky days per year, so the weather should be good, and the trail starts by following an easy tarmac and dirt road. Beyond the research station at Kellyville, the trail is simply a narrow path across empty tundra dotted with lakes. If you plan to walk from hut to hut, then the route will take maybe nine days, unless stages are doubled-up. Using a tent offers greater flexibility, and some trekkers complete the route in as little as a week. Huts are located at Hundesø, Katiffik, The Canoe Centre, Ikkattook, Eqalugaarniarfik, Innajuattok, Nerumaq and Kangerluarsuk Tulleq. Youth hostels and hotels are located at the terminal points of Kangerlussuaq and Sisimiut.

 

There is the option to use a free kayak to paddle all day along the large lake of Amitsorsuaq, rather than walk along its shore. There are only a handful of kayaks, and if they are all moored at the ‘wrong’ end of the lake, then walking is the only option.

 

The trail is often low-lying, below 500ft (150m), but climbs on occasions over 1300ft (400m), notably around Ikkattook, Iluliumanersuup Portornga and Qerrortusuk Majoriaa. There are a handful of river crossings whose difficulty depends on melt-water and rainfall. These are difficult early in the season, but much easier to ford later. The largest river, in Ole’s Lakseelv valley, has a footbridge if required.

 

The end of the trail is the colourful coastal town of Sisimiut, the second largest town in Greenland, with a population of only 5500. Weather at this end of the trail is basically a 50/50 lottery between wet and dry days. There are flights back to Kangerlussuaq, though very rarely, trekkers have been known to walk back.

 

(Martin Krämer & Paddy Dillon)

 

-----

 

I returned to the deep north once more in August, this time to hike and enjoy the Arctic Circle Trail, most likely the most well-known long-distance path in Greenland.

 

We started in Kangerlussuaq and found ourselves in Sisimiut after nine days, having hiked 180km in total. The weather was perfect except a rainy second day, which we luckily solved by staying in a caravan-like hut at the Hundesø lake.

 

Although the trail itself may not be as scenic as Icelandic Laugavegurinn or Hornstrandir area, or mountainous areas in northern Sweden, the isolation, freedom and sense of free space are incomparable - one meets fellow trekkers only occasionally, and some of those encounters may be surprising meetings with local hunters.

 

It was indeed a special and rewarding time – so much to see!

 

This is a shot taken during our fourth day on the trail - we continued hiking along the Amitsorsuaq lake, used canoes to paddle the last few kilometres of it, and finished our journey at sandy shores of the beautiful Kangerluatsiarsuaq lake.

So true. A problem well-defined is half solved. Sometimes the best course of action is starting at point “B”, not “A”…

This is a work in progress project, and if the weather plays ball, will be a full colour image in the coming weeks (months, years, it is British weather afterall).

 

Taken tonight from my back garden, this is a H-alpha image of a nebula I have never seen before, mostly due to light pollution and it's faint nature.

 

This is a stack of 24x600s 1x1 binned images using my ATIK414ex camera, attached to my LX90 8" SCT through a Baader H-alpha filter and f/6.3 focal reducer.

 

After an April of wind, rain, hail, snow, lightning, wind and clouds, it was too good an opportunity to miss, even if high hazy cloud and gusts of wind made life harder.

Hoping to cature more nebulosity especially the elusive Barnards loop, unfortunately at the expense of blown stars......................two stitched images each consisting of six 2min exposures.............canon 60da canon 70-200mm@70mm iso 1600 f4........astrotrac..........stacked in dss.

“Solve” refers to the breaking down of elements and “Coagula” refers to their coming together. In the process of transmuting base metal into gold or arriving at the Philosopher’s stone, this contained both literal and hidden meaning. Esoterically, “solve” referred to the dissolving of hardened positions, negative states of body and mind, thereby dissolving and vanishing negative energetic charge. “Coagula” referred to the coagulation of dispersed elements into an integrated whole, representing the new synthesis.

Solve et Coagula expresses transmutation from base to a finer state, the perpetual goal of spiritual growth and human evolution.

OK, you set your camera on macro, zoom in and shoot a sheet of laser-printed mylar Christmas paper from about 3 feet away. Without a DSLR, it is difficult to defocus a digital camera. This is my solution.
