Ten months in the making, I've finally completed my Eisenhower Interstate System one- and two-digit highway interchange abstraction map! I originally saw Chris Yates's simplified version (www.chrisyates.net) on Strange Maps (strangemaps.wordpress.com), and decided to do a decidedly non-simplified version. If I counted the number of hours devoted to this, it would provide a quantified measure of how nerdy I am. The total hour count is easily in the three digits.
I like the look of Chris's map better than mine (http://www.chrisyates.net/reprographics/index.php?page=424), but you need to make aesthetic compromises when you're cramming that much information into a small space. Plus I don't want to step on any artistic toes.
Just for kicks, I added lines indicating coastlines and borders.
If you see any inaccuracies, let me know! With over 220 interchanges, I'm bound to have made some errors.
I collected my data using Google Earth, and frequently used the City Boundaries and Places of Interest layers to pinpoint exact locations of interchanges. In places of ambiguity, I applied a consistent set of rules for determining in which city an interchange occurred; these criteria are too numerous and boring to list here, but I'd be happy to explain them if you disagree with my choices.

I visited today the Press Museum in Amsterdam. It shows the history of 400 years of news in The Netherlands. Part of the permanent exhibition conists of a series of four replicated press rooms in different periods.
The picture shows a detail of the press room of the beginning of the 20th century, showing a system for internal mail by means of cables and pulleys. The document bottom left was clamped in a kind of peg on a cable an could be transported to the other side of the room by turning the pulley.

This is also a sign that I'm back on PMG! My main comp was temporarily unavailible, and I had to go to a 3-day conference thing in Hotlanta(Atlanta), Georgia. But now I'm back! :D

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
European Version - small boxes
One of my hobbies: the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
These small game boxes were published throughout Europe (except UK and Italy) before Nintendo of Europe in Großostheim (Germany) was founded in 1990.
They were sold by Bienengräber & Co (Germany), Stadlbauer (Austria), Waldmeier (Switzerland), Bergsala (Scandinavia) and another company - I haven't find out yet - in Spain.
It took me some time to collect and edit all these cover images. Unfortunately I don't own all these boxes, but I'm sure I will some day ;)
- If you'd like to sell me some or like to trade, please contact me!
Feel also free to contact me, if you have question, corrections or just like to talk about the NES!
Here are some more informations about the console:
The Nintendo Entertainment System (also abbreviated as NES or simply called Nintendo) is an 8-bit video game console that was released by Nintendo in North America during 1985, in Europe during 1986 and Australia in 1987. In most of Asia, including Japan (where it was first launched in 1983), China, Vietnam, Singapore, the Middle East and Hong Kong, it was released as the Family Computer (ファミリーコンピュータ Famirī Konpyūta?), commonly shortened as either the Famicom (ファミコン Famikon?), or abbreviated to FC. In South Korea, it was known as the Hyundai Comboy (현대 컴보이) and was distributed by Hynix which then was known as Hyundai Electronics. It was succeeded by the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
Once the best-selling gaming console of its time, the NES helped revitalize the US video game industry following the video game crash of 1983, and set the standard for subsequent consoles of its generation. With the NES, Nintendo introduced a now-standard business model of licensing third-party developers, authorizing them to produce and distribute software for Nintendo's platform.
In 2009, the Nintendo Entertainment System was named the single greatest video game console in history by IGN, out of a field of 25. 2010 marked the system's 25th anniversary, which was officially celebrated by Nintendo of America's magazine Nintendo Power in issue #260 (November 2010) with a special 26-page tribute section. Other video game publications also featured articles looking back at 25 years of the NES, and its impact in the video game console market.
The Machine That Goes 'Ping!' that I built for SImon Imberger's low budget genre feature "The Curable".
This angle shows the top of the machine dressed with: printer cartridge packaging, electronic chassis parts, a computer fan grill, a golf tee, some actual medical tubing (goodness, what's that doing there!), a paperclip and some bandaids. The bandaids
are dirtied down with what I had handy on site, which is to say, a bit of honey and some red stamp pad ink.
(Yes the number "42" comes from "The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy" and the "108" is from "Lost".)

I never posted this photo before as I "cut off" the bottom of the TA-N80ES amp. It does show a nice pair of 7 series CD players though!
The 9K31 Strela-1 (Russian: 9К31 «Стрела-1» English: Arrow) is a Highly Mobile, Short-Range, Low Altitude Infra-Red Guided Surface-to-Air Missile System. Originally developed by the Soviet Union under the GRAU designation 9K31, it is commonly known by its NATO reporting name ''SA-9 Gaskin''. The system consists of a BRDM-2 Amphibious Vehicle, mounting two pairs of Ready-to-Fire 9M31 Missiles.
The SA-9 Gaskin is a Short Range, Low Altitude Self-Propelled Surface-to-Air Missile Carrying System based on the BRDM-2 amphibious chassis. The vehicle carries four SA-9 SAM (Surface-to-Air Missile) launchers on a revolving mount in place of the machine gun turret. The missiles are usually fired in pairs to increase the kill probability. The Driver and Commander both have infra-red vision systems and the vehicle has standard NBC (nuclear, biological chemical) protection, including overpressure. Weighing in at 6.8 tons and with a crew of 3 (Commander, Gunner and Driver) it first entered service in 1968 and was manufactured in Russia by the Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod.
ARMAMENT:

ENGINE:
The SA-9 Gaskin is fitted with a GAZ 41 V8 water cooled petrol engine producing 140bhp at 3,400 rpm and is coupled to a gearbox with four forward and one reverse gears, giving the vehicle a top speed of 62mph on the road and 6.2mph in water.
ROLE:

I have been lost in Photoshop. I was having ideas in Lightroom and they led to edits and on to Photoshop CS and from there they are stretching out towards some notion of motion pictures. I have not used this Film Temperature Control System. I have been calling a film cooker. It looks superb and it comes with a three pin U.K. Plug fitted ready for accurate simmering film into tender toner and sharpish shadows and might fine highlights.
I have used two fonts to give °CineStill a look as it has in the packaging.
I forget to mention the soundtrack. Two tracks from those provided by my editing service with no composers and players listed. I have edited tracks individually and together. All errors on me and all praise to unknown originators of music. I wish that I had some names to praise.
