Horace recently bought a new car, yet after only a couple of days he was experiencing a problem with it, he was furious so he took it back to the dealer.🐷🚗👹
One of the technicians came out and asked what the problem was, Horace said it won’t go past 70 up our hill, the technician said what’s wrong with that, Horace said I live at 83.
Thank you so much for viewing my photos.
Your banter and comments are so appreciated, take care in these unprecedented times.

Clover waters our trees and shrubs. She wishes it would rain too. She has a very busy schedule being a Corgi and helping us out.
These are tough times for the oil and gas industry. In an effort to reduce operating costs, some companies have replaced high cost human technicians with grizzly bears.
According to the HR department of one of the leading producers, there are several advantages to employing the bears. First off, they are quite intelligent and simple valve adjustments are well within their scope. Secondly, they are so strong that they are able to adjust the ball and gate valves without tools. Finally, they haven't even heard of unions, so labor costs should continue to be lower for the foreseeable future. The bears typically work for moose steaks and honey.
Also, the grizzlies seem to actually enjoy the job - remember when HR departments actually cared (or at least pretended to) that people got some satisfaction on the job?
The one troubling aspect is that the companies aren't training these new employees to conform with the old tried and true safety standards. No hard hats, hi-vis vests, safety glasses or safety boots? Well, given the current safety records of some of these companies, the bears won't do any worse.
(This photo was previously uploaded a couple of years ago but I did an awful job on the post editing and decided to try again. This one is pretty much out of the camera).

Even though the ground crew of the B-Wing sq. never really see any real combat, their resolve to keep their pilots flying knows no boundaries.
This is Axel. One of our technicians was leaving the building late at night a couple weeks ago and caught a glimpse of a kitten in a big drainage pipe near the parking lot of our practice. She set out a Have-A-Heart trap and for 2 days and 2 nights through freezing temperatures, rain, frost, and wind, the trap remained empty. On the third morning, there was Axel, huddled up in the back of the trap.
I can't tell you how much he reminds me of Riceball/Royalty (for Riceball/Royalty's story you can go to this link www.flickr.com/photos/77654185@N07/25975226737/in/photoli...). When you reach for him, he cowers away as if he expects to be hurt but the second you make contact, he starts purring and melts into you. He LOVES laps and head rubs and if you stop petting him too soon, he gently taps you to remind you he is still there, waiting for more. Riceball was just the same. He also had to be reminded daily how much he loved laps and being petted.
We estimate Axel is about 5 months old and is now neutered, vaccinated and ready to be adopted.
Thanks to my mom, Bennilover, and Flickr Friends Regina, Chickpea and Bigbird, it looks like an informal group is being started based on themes I wanted to use while taking pictures in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. We chose "Words" for this week's theme. The "words" in my photo this week are Axel's contact information on an old business card for our practice. If you would like to join our informal group, feel free to post pictures of "Words" this week or "On the ground" - last week's theme.

If nature is happy with it what's the issue?

We went to the legendary Lick Observatory located on Mt. Hamilton high above the Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. It was a special night for photographers. Once the telescope was in place, the lights went out, and all that was left was dark glowing red. Eyes adapt well to darkness, which takes about 10 minutes. A dark red light is used so that the human eyes can retain night vision. This is a 210º fisheye lens shot pointed straight up. At the bottom you see the technician in front of the control panel. In the center is the refracting telescope and the opened dome.
I processed a balanced and a soft HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

The original photo was a a piece of playground equipment that our grandkids really like. Photoleap was used to turn it into a moon-containment device.

Performers displayed quite an affinity for fire.
Great entertainment!

Dr. Hibbert reviews the X-ray taken of Homer Simpson’s head. He has to tell Homer that he can’t let those donuts go to his head!
Being an X-ray technician, or as it may also be referred to as a Radiologic Technologist, can be both challenging and rewarding work. In the field of medical imaging, X-rays, along with CT scans, MRIs, and other non-invasive tests can offer radiologists and physicians important health details that can assess a patient’s health without surgery. This field not only requires the basics of biology, chemistry, and physics, but also human anatomy, physiology, and a little psychology. Yes, knowing how to position a patient in the proper ‘pose’ is part of the job. Knowing how to set the X-ray machine and adjust for proper exposure is also required. Personal safety is also necessary as the technician must also safeguard himself or herself from the harmful rays emitted over time. That is why they must scan themselves to alert to possible over-exposure to X-rays.
"As responsible scientists and technicians the members of the soil survey have a responsibility to explain their information, how it was obtained, what it seems to mean, and how good or how uncertain the information may be. Without such a responsibility to the customers, the public, and to science there would not be the keen sense of pride and accomplishment of being professionals." (Dr. Richard W. Arnold, Director, Soil Survey Division, USDA-NRCS; 1980 to 1996)
Soils are the basis of life and the foundation for agriculture. (Genesis 2:7: Then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.)
Yet, during the past few decades, focus on the importance of soils has diminished, coupled with harsh man-made and natural conditions that have resulted in soil erosion and soil nutrient depletion. Without vibrant and healthy soil, plants and animals cannot flourish. Therefore, it is vital that we have a deep understanding of soil so we may conserve and protect this very valuable natural resource.
The word “soil,” like many common words, has several meanings. In its traditional meaning, soil is the natural medium for the growth of land plants, whether or not it has discernible soil horizons. This meaning is still the common understanding of the word, and the greatest interest in soil is centered on this meaning. Soil covers the earth’s surface as a continuum, except on bare rock, in areas of perpetual frost or deep water, or on the bare ice of glaciers. In this sense, soil has a thickness that is determined by the rooting depth of plants.
The images provided in the Soil Science Photo Gallery offer a unique perspective of the world underfoot. They are designed to be used by students, naturalists, scientists, or anyone seeking a better understanding of the natural world in which we live. In general, the images and accompanied information are an overview of the contemporary process of describing, classifying, and correlating soils. These materials will assist the reader to increase their knowledge about soil as a natural, evolving feature of the earth’s surface and its critical role in sustaining life.
Many of the images were photographed over a 35-year career as a soil scientist with USDA-NRCS and as an international soil consultant. Others were downloaded from various web-based articles, publications, photo albums, etc. Where known, the images have been sourced, cited, or credited to the original author or photographer and a link provided to the original and related sites. Otherwise, it may be assumed they have been provided by USDA-NRCS (SCS) staff. Please keep in mind, over time links may be broken as web sites are changed or files deleted or moved.
In order to make comparison easier, they have been revised to a standard size and format. Soil profiles may have been edited to remove extraneous objects such as tools, scales, markers, cross shadows, etc. or to clarify features. If the image is of a soil or landscape outside the U.S., the standard ISO two-digit country code has been provided. (i.e., AU indicating Australia)
If you would like a copy of an image(s), they may be downloaded via the Flicker download feature in various resolutions including the original size (5x7 inch @ 500 ppi for pedons).

Thank you for clicking on my picture. Every thought (faves, comments) appreciated!
Good lights to all of you, fellows.
Sargon was one of the best Rolleiflex repairman and technicians in Sydney in his time and he still tinkers with people's camera's. It was wonderful visiting his workshop. I went to see him to get an SL66 repaired which has shutter speed issues. What a surprise and amazing to think of the heritage and experience we are loosing with digital. I hope some young people will take up the role.

Technicians at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, moved the largest piece of structural test hardware for America's new deep space rocket, the Space Launch System, from the factory to the dock where it was loaded onto NASA’s barge Pegasus Dec. 14, 2018. The liquid hydrogen tank test article will make its way up the river to NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where dozens of hydraulic cylinders in Test Stand 4693 will push and pull on the giant tank, subjecting it to the same stresses and loads it will endure during liftoff and flight. The test hardware is structurally identical to the flight version of the liquid hydrogen tank that will comprise two-thirds of the core stage and hold 537,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen cooled to minus 423 degrees Fahrenheit.
