1. Line-of-sight (LOS) pipes represent brass collimators which define radiation beams in the LOS pipes before they reach the detectors.
2. Line-of-sight pipes represent reaction history lines of sight. The detectors in these pipes, represented by BLACK blocks, are alpha detectors which measure the reaction multiplication rate in the fissioning/fusioning systems
3. Line-of-Sight pipes represent THREX (THReshold x-ray EXperiments) package lines of sight. The THREX package holds a set of solid-state detectors which record proton recoils from a thin foil that is exposed to a neutron beam and are used to derive temperatures.
4. Two Line-of-sight pipes run vertically the length of the rack are PINEX (Pinhole Imaging Neutron Experiment) pipes. The RED section of each pipe represents the pinhole assembly. The pinhole focuses a beam of x-rays, gamma rays, or neutrons onto the fluoroscope. The fluoroscope is located in the television box represented by the large Gray box on top of the rack. The fluoroscopes provide an image of the exploding device. The images are transmitted uphold by television cameras. "You can see an example of a PINEX camera in the Discovery and Innovation gallery.
5. Line-of-sight pipes represent NUEX (Neutron Experiment) pipes which derive the device yield from time-resolved measurements of neutron output.
6. Pipes represent Line-of-Sight for SMAT detectors which are high-bandwidth-laser-modulated and laser-transmitted reaction history experiments.
7. Short Line-of-Sight that runs up the left-hand side of the rack is a TOMEX (TOMographic Reconstruction Experiment). TOMEX looks at various image planes of the exploding device that is recorded onto a streak camera. Cylindrical lenses. condense the image sections into a fiber optic cable, transmitting the image uphole to a recording trailer. Later, the image can be reconstructed mathematically
Along with experiments and Line-of-sight pipes, the rack holds other equipment to allow various experiments to function properly and transmit data to the surface. The bright ORANGE gas bottles are CO, gas which flows into the TV box, keeping the box a positive pressure relative to the outside preventing dust and other contaminants from entering the box.
The OPAQUE blocks in the upper rack represent various power distribution and transmitter boxes for the experiments.

A closer look at one of the horn/woofer combos. A current production 3-inch EV DH6 compression driver is coupled to an EV HR9040A horn, circa 1975-1986. And on the bottom an 18-inch EV EVX-180B in a custom 6.75 cubic feet vented box. The particular box alignment requires an underdamped high-pass filter at box tuning to achieve essentially flat response, 3db down at 27Hz. This is accomplished by the use of the Merlin ISP-100 processor.

Blown away with the detail, be sure to look at the full size. Enjoy BG

More hat shape than teapot, but that would still work for a tea party theme. Made 11/08/2017. Will try again Friday night.
This is actually the second one I made today until I got the exact amount of puff at the knees as I wanted.
They came out rather well. They have working front pockets that make them adorable. Plus I still need to sew some leather straps at the cuffs that make them even cooler :P
Now working on the blouse and the turtle neck, and some crocheted headkerchief that make the whole ensemble pretty cute.

Formula One Testing, Day One, Tuesday 28th January 2014. Jerez, Spain.
Willing sitters holding a pose for a test frame.
I succumbed to an M9 as my M8 is under repair and given the M9 sensor backlog it may be early next century before it is back and this full frame thing isn't going away. The Fuji X100t went in part so softened the blow.
This with the faithful Summicron 35mm f2 IV.
... para um casamento que vai ser lindo de certeza ;o)
(aiiii e ela não é minha filha, nem quero pensar quando um dia forem as minhas ;o))
A British Airways Trident Two (G-AVFN) stands at Heathrow's maintenance apron in the early 1980s, undergoing testing. Note the angled tailplane - a characteristic of these classic planes, whereas more modern craft just use elevators rather than moving the whole surface. My first flight was on a Trident Three, coincidentally just weeks before they were all withdrawn.
Love to see our students at David Vincent's Martial Arts perform after putting in the work for belt testing!

Don't ever hurt my loved ones.
Some people can just drive you insane!
They push and push and push till something breaks. And its not funny, clever or fair.
