Happy Telegraph Tuesday!
Remnants of the American Telephone and Telegraph (AT&T) Long Lines intercity microwave system making up the long distance service of the Bell System. One of the last remaining bits of the system which is nearly all dismantled now. This is on the roof of the old Mountain Bell central office serving Provo, Utah.

The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission is an international partnership co-led by NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) that will provide next-generation global observations of precipitation from space.
GPM will study global rain, snow and ice to better understand our climate, weather, and hydrometeorological processes.
As of Novermber 2013 the GPM Core Observatory is in the final stages of testing at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The satellite will be flown to Japan in the fall of 2013 and launched into orbit on an HII-A rocket in early 2014.
For more on the GPM mission, visit gpm.gsfc.nasa.gov/.
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center enables NASA’s mission through four scientific endeavors: Earth Science, Heliophysics, Solar System Exploration, and Astrophysics. Goddard plays a leading role in NASA’s accomplishments by contributing compelling scientific knowledge to advance the Agency’s mission.

The Llwyngwril Systems Guppy was a high performance speeder bike. It was aimed at pilots who found the power of the Daley-Harleyson WD-40 "Whale" underwhelming and insufficient.
The bike was yet another huge Watt & Pritney turbojet engine, with a seat and some bodywork. Steering was achieved somehow, eventually, after a long while and probably with the aid of telekinesis. Inspiration for the bike's name came from the Super Guppy series of aeroplanes.

This model uses two more of the six black fans that I bought from Bricklink. Two more left to use, plus a blue one!
The last locomotives purchased by the L&N were SD50s, but they were all delivered in Seaboard gray. They did, however, retain some of the L&N subtleties such as nose mounted headlights and marker lights. For a kid like me in '83, they were a real shock. Seeing these big matched sets pulling exhaustingly long coal trains was the final end of the Louisville & Nashville railroad forever. They always seemed to come in sets of three and always followed by a mile of coal hoppers. I have built a Seaboard SD50 before, but it passed back into the brick long ago. I knew this time around I would have to do it right and build a 3 unit lashup of these 3500 hp brutes. I'll get back to you on that mile long string of hoppers.
NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket with the Orion spacecraft aboard is seen atop the mobile launcher at Launch Pad 39B as preparations for launch continue, Thursday, Sept. 1, 2022, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA’s Artemis I flight test is the first integrated test of the agency’s deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, SLS rocket, and supporting ground systems. Launch of the uncrewed flight test is targeted for Sept. 3 at 2:17 p.m. EDT. Photo Credit: (NASA/Joel Kowsky)
So to my annoyance, Bryan has sold all my Canon gear and bought all Nikon stuff *rolls eyes*. The reason being, is that he wants to use the awesome 14-24mm landscape lens from Nikon, and since I needed a full frame camera anyways, he bought the D700 to go along with it.
This was taken with my new 35mm f/1.4 lens from Nikon. I love the lens, but hate using the Nikon body. I only hold the camera with my right hand to take photos, and because my hands are so tiny, I can't reach any of the dials on the Nikon camera. It is meant to be held with two hands, but since I have one hand on a doll all the time.... well you get the picture...
Anyways, I've missed using a full frame camera... I hate using cropped sensors. This lens also has nicer bokeh than the Canon 35 mm f/1.4 and has more aperature blades. The bokeh is much smoother on this lens. Love the lens, but hate the body... what can you do?
We need to "uproot the system" - While I didn't ask the protester with the placard what precise meaning she wanted to convey, it seems obvious that we need to challenge the global corporate political system if we are to implement effective measures to combat climate change.
As part of coordinated protest action by tens of thousands of people worldwide, demonstrators took to the streets to demand urgent action to tackle the existential threat of catastrophic climate change. In London, several hundred protesters, many of them students, met in Parliament Square before marching to the Home Office. All part of the Fridays for Future campaign.

Western Europe's latest heat wave is supposed to abate tomorrow. Let's hope it does.
Sorry this is not a video. I don't do them much. But I am sure you get the idea. This young man had found out that a soccer ball will pick its altitude and then ride the water from a spout for at least a few seconds before losing its balance and falling to the ground. His audience liked watching this trick, and so did I.
The central plaza in this Alsatian village has numerous hidden water spouts and a fine drainage system. The village government turns on the spouts on hot summer days. All you have to do to get cool is walk onto the plaza and pick your spout. It's a ball, with or without a ball.
