Capital Traction Company switch tower at the National Capital Trolley Museum:
www.dctrolley.org/switchTower.htm
As the street railway companies of Washington were planning their facilities for Union Station in 1908, they commissioned the American Automatic Switch Company to manufacture five towers which would enable attendants to route street cars by setting switches and signaling motormen in the vicinity of the Station. Of these five, the one donated to the Museum by the James H. Cochran family of Brentwood, Maryland in 1977 is the remaining example.
This tower was taken out of service ca. 1940. You can see one in place in 1918 in the lower left-hand corner of this photo and in 1925 here (right-hand side, middle of the photo.)
This custom was done...for my personal collection. Once in a while, I gotta break from commissions, spend some of my time off work, and...do customs? Anyway, this is a great figure. The robot mode is a little thin around some parts, hollow shoulders, screw holes galore, weak factory paint applications. I started by filling in some of the hollow areas and screw holes. Gave Grimlock a nice heavier feel and more solid look. I sharpened up his sword, added a nice red LED light to his visor (with on/off switch behind it and easy-access battery) Then, went to town painting battle damage and every detail on the figure. Originally, I was going to leave the shield and sword transparent orange, but looking at some of the rendering/in-game images, thought painting them, with a nice glow/fade to white, really worked. The existing LED still functions and is bright enough to blast through the painted sections which were originally transparent.
It was pretty difficult to get these three cumbersome different sized bodies to do anything... (2 out of 3 do not like to sit up!)

Das neue Update für die Nintendo Switch ist da und löst ein kleines aber nerviges Problem.Uns erwartet diesmal mehr als nur eine reine Performance-Steigerung.Erfahrt mehr in unserem Bericht über die Patch-Notes von 10.0.4.
Die Patch-Notes zu Update 10.0.4
Einige Spielergruppen hatten in letzter Zeit ein kleines Problem mit Kreditkarten und dem hinzufügen solcher:
"Wir haben das Problem gelöst, wodurch es nicht möglich war, in manchen Ländern und Regionen mit einer neuen Kreditkarte im eShop der Nintendo Switch zu bezahlen. Auch die Registrierung einer neuen Kreditkarte funktionierte nicht."
Demzufolge gab es manchen Ländern Probleme bei der Zahlung mit Kreditkarte.Nintendo gab allerdings nicht bekannt,welche Regionen von dem Problem befallen war.Solltet ihr zu einer der Gruppen gehören,dann müsste die Zahlung per Kreditkarte wieder einwandfrei funktionieren.
Viele Neuerungen seit Patch 10.0.0
Seit Update 10.0.0 hat sich viel bei Nintendo getan,viele große Probleme wurden von seiten des Herstellers mit Updates behoben.So gibt es mittlerweile die Möglichkeit Software vom internen Speicher auf die SD-Karte zu schieben.Mit Patch 10.0.3 wurde zudem ein weiteres großes Problem mit der Sicherheit behoben.Nintendo aktualisierte die Sicherheitszertifikate und erhofft sich dadurch weniger Attacken durch Hacker oder Homebrews.Kurze Erklärung:Homebrews sind Applikationen,die von Fans entwickelt wurden.
Die Nintendo Switch gibt es preiswert bei Amazon zu kaufen*. vergleichmeister.de/nintendo-switch-update-10-0-4/
Belkin 10-port switched outlets. that remote control down there activates/deactivates the switched outlets (8 of em). the two outlets up top are always-on.
I got this from Amazon for like $35 so that I could wire up my home theatre and easily shut everything down when I'm out of town. Unfortunately, the remote came DOA from the factory, so my Saturday project was spoiled. The gigabit switch was $40 from Amazon - I have the same 10/100 tucked away behind my plasma right now and since most of my network is gigE, I decided it was time to finally upgrade that switch.

Take a blazing hot summer Down Under, add one 20-year-old songstress with a suitcase full of observations on London life, and you’ve got the lovable KATE NASH at BIG DAY OUT 2008.
In KATE NASH’s stream of consciousness world, unrequited love shares space with undisguised contempt, ex-boyfriends get a bottling, sweet self-portraits are painted, and kitchen sink realism meets urban grit. Songtitles are as simple as Foundations and as biting as Dickhead. Her up, down, all-around voice tells these tales over tunes built from loops, piano, beats, guitar and violin, taking in indie pop, fragile folk and broken blues.
This world is captured on NASH’s debut album, Made of Bricks, a UK No.1. Once you’ve heard it, it will make strangely perfect sense that NASH lists as her influences on her MySpace page everything from Jurassic 5 to the Buzzcocks, Regina Spektor to Roald Dahl, Whoopie Goldberg to The Young Ones, poetry and politics to “being confused”.
“The secret behind this Harrow girl’s success is her ability to bring music down from near elite planes to poetry of the public. The familiar themes that line NASH’s music mushroom in significance for every single person. They can try to reach out to her through their bedroom music system but when she’s in front of them they reach out physically and verbally, and she so very kindly and happily reaches back.” (Drowned in Sound, October 2007)
Accompanied on stage by guitarist/laptop guru Jay, drummer Elliott, violinist Meg, and guitarist Brett, NASH looks the audience in the eye, opens up her metaphorical storybook and begins to play – “at times it’s enough to break your heart” said musicOMH.com.
“Switching between the humorous (‘I wish you knew that when I say two sugars I really mean three’) to the simply touching (‘I wish you loved me’), NASH softens the kind of vocabulary that would make your Gran blush by taking poetic inspiration from youthful, modern commentators like the Arctic Monkeys, Jamie T, and Lily Allen.” (Manchester Music, March 2007)
Her rise has been rapid – from drama school to shop assistant to songwriter to MySpace sensation to chart-topper. “My album went to number one!” NASH raved on her blog. “Which I can’t believe and express my happiness at how I managed to connect with that many of you.” Just like the music, the excitement is genuine.
In her songs, KATE NASH longs for sunny days. She’ll get them at BIG DAY OUT 2008. So huddle round now, for this girl has a story to tell…
