The charming little system in Naumburg closed two years later in August 1991,but later re-opened as a tourist line. In Summer 1989 Naumburg operated four T2D Gotha cars, which were single-ended and had been acquired with several others, since withdrawn, from Halle. No 44 was formerly Halle no 778,a CKD Praha Gotha car.. These trams were withdrawn later in 1989 and most scrapped except no 41 which carried on until the end. With the re-opening, even this single-ended tram was of no use and was sold for scrap. A reversing triangle had been installed in the ringbahn at the depot specially for these T2Ds.

Jamaican Music Industry as a Site of Nationalistic Fervour
Duke Reid ran one of the most popular sound systems of the 1950s called Duke Reid's the Trojan after the British-made trucks used to transport the equipment. In the 1960s, Reid founded record label Treasure Isle, named after his liquor store, that produced legendary ska and rocksteady music. He was still active in the early 1970s, working with legendary toaster U-Roy. He died in early 1975 after having suffered from a severe illness for the last year.

In the context of Jamaican popular culture, a sound system is a group of disc jockeys, engineers and MCs playing ska, rocksteady or reggae music. The sound system scene is generally regarded as an important part of Jamaican cultural history and as being responsible for the rise of several modern Jamaican musical genres. The sound system concept first became popular in the 1950s, in the ghettos of Kingston. DJs would load up a truck with a generator, turntables, and huge speakers and set up street parties. In the beginning, the DJs played American rhythm and blues music, but as time progressed and more local music was created, the sound migrated to a local flavor. The sound systems were big business, and represented one of the few sure ways to make money in the unstable economy of the area. The promoter (the DJ) would make his profit by charging a minimal admission, and selling food and alcohol. It was not uncommon for thousands of people to be in attendance.

Yes, This is what a Stamar System 2002 board looks like, This is the timer used for old Jolly Roger rides. And no, Jolly Roger never manufactured any Kiddie Ride Timers. They only used the System 2002 Timers from Stamar Electronics, Which they made for the company. I Don't Know if Jolly Roger also used different timers from Stamar. Because this isn't the only timer Stamar manufactured. Now on the ride type name, It says "Racing Car" Which i don't know if Jolly Roger made a racing car ride, or this board is just made for the Peanuts Snoopy Ride. Because the later units of the snoopy ride has racing car sounds.
Being a picture taken in July, hopefully they fixed this by now!

Hotar is a well armored Toa of Ice, once a Matoran who scaled sheer ice cliffs with his trusty ice picks, seeking rare crystals. In battle, he weaves a chain of ice between his picks to lash out at far away foes.
Sunset bought EVRI Toters and Rotos, but then switched to Rehrigs. In their last months in business, they switched over to EVRIIs.
Rubbermaid HomeFree series is a fully customizable closet system that offers the unique flexibility of telescoping clothing rods and expanding shelves to make the most of your space.
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!
I was driving through Morehead Kentucky when this Barn looking structure caught my Eye.
It looked like at one time it was some kind of Train Yard beside an old Sawmill.
Under this structure sits an old Diesel Locomotive, Freight Car and this odd looking Car that many younger People have never seen, it's called a Caboose.
When my Daughter asked me what it was, she laughed when I told her, she thought I was making the name up because she'd never heard it before.
The Caboose was always the last Car on a Train and housed several People who would look out for any mechanical problems that the Engineer might not see, like derailments, locked up Brakes etc.
They also took care of switching the Tracks back once the Train cleared the Rail switch, as well as security and deploying safety signals when the Train was stopped to let other Trains coming know that they where stopped.
With the advent of automatic switching and Computer monitoring of critical systems as well as traffic control, the Railroad industry did away with the Caboose and in doing so, eliminated allot of careers.
This particular Caboose has a distinctive marking of a medical Cross on Rails.
I found out it's a Logo for Chessie Systems safety program. (Thanks rjek81)
It was to remind workers of Railroad safety.
Designed by Edward W. Pugin and George Ashlin, this magnificent cathedral, which dominates Cork Harbour from land and sea, took 47 years to build, and was completed in 1915.
Construction began in 1867 and was not completed until over half a century later due to increases in costs and revisions of the original plans.
The architects were Edward Welby Pugin and George Ashlin; construction began in 1867. When Pugin died in 1875, Ashlin took on the services of a Dublin architect, Thomas Aloysius Coleman, to assist him in the completion of the project. The clerk of works was Charles Guilfoyle Doran, who supervised the project until his death in 1909, when the cathedral was almost complete. The cathedral was finally consecrated in 1915.
The cathedral contains the only church carillon in the Republic of Ireland, which with 49 bells is one of the largest carillons in the British Isles. An automated system strikes the hour and 15 minute intervals while it also rings the bells in appropriate form for Masses, funerals, weddings and events. The carillon is also played on special occasions and generally every Sunday afternoon by its current carillonneur Adrian Gebruers.
Interesting system of marker beacons and lights. I think this is probably the inner marker. The lights illuminate sequentially to lead the airplanes to the runway.
At the Vandenberg Operational Systems Test Facility, deep in the exploded hulk of the control center is this lonely spiral staircase. This is a rare design feature, according to my sources. Early in the missile program's history, spiral staircases were part of the plan, but there was apparently a fatality at one of the Colorado sites, and they were scrapped in place of ladders and traditional steel staircases.
from asuwlink.uwyo.edu/~jimkirk/titan1.html
"I know of three fatal accidents during construction of Lowry sites. In one, two workers were racing each other down the spiral staircase into the site; as one of them went through the 1500-pound revolving door, the other tripped on the last step, fell head-first, and was decapitated by the door. In a second accident, a worker started to "bleed" the hydraulic system for the silo lid doors before both doors had fully opened, causing one door to fall on several people, also killing an Air Force man on the surface. In a third accident, at the Elizabeth site, workers tried to jump a gap in work platforms at the top of a silo (with no safety net); one of them made it safely and turned around to see the second worker falling head-first 130 feet to his death. All of these astound me in the context of more modern safety awareness. These accidents were discussed in detail on the missile_talk mail list around February 18/19 2003."
The trailer mounted mast-raising system on my Precision Boat Works Precision 21 sailboat. I can step the mast single-handed with this system in about 20 minutes. A friend of mine built the system from photos of a factory-built system.
this is what happened when system of a down were transported into some kind of wierd cartoon u get in da newspapers
When I started my water drop journey, I dripped pure food colouring straight from the bottle into a glass of water and hoped.
I've since grown more refined. I diluted the colour, I added milk or jello, I obtained pipettes to control my drips a little better.
Today, I level up again. I'm probably on a list somewhere for this, but I have ordered laboratory equipment and am cobbling together a drop system from it. A support stand with a 30cm rod, a support ring and petri dishes to begin.
The stand lets me control the drops better and the petri dishes are quite shallow, so the splashback should improve.
I'm awaiting delivery of a separator flask, which will be the crowning jewel of my Macgyver'd little system.
