This photograph shows a mirror test on equipment made by Grubb Parsons in Newcastle upon Tyne in the early 20th Century.
This photograph is taken from the Grubb Parsons Ltd collection at Tyne & Wear Archives. The records of Grubb Parsons Ltd, Newcastle upon Tyne, England, consist of 65 linear metres (213 linear feet) of files, plans, photographs and glass plate negatives relating to this internationally renowned firm's manufacture of precision telescopic instruments.
The original Business was founded in the early nineteenth century by Thomas Grubb, in 1925 the company was acquired by Sir Charles Parsons and continued to manufacture Telescopic and Astronomical instruments until 1985.
This Glass Lantern Slide is taken from a large collection that documents the work of Grubb Parsons Ltd at their workshop in Walkergate, Newcastle upon Tyne. It was here that Grubb Parsons Ltd manufactured Telescopic and Astronomical equipment for companies and observatories world wide. Their equipment was designed and built for use and research across the Globe, to name only a few of these locations Grubb Parsons Ltd supplied to the UK, Switzerland, Denmark, Egypt, South Africa, Greece, Australia, Japan, India, Hawaii, Poland, Chile, Canada, France and Spain.

ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer testing the Bioprint FirstAid experiment by German Aerospace Center, DLR. He posted this image to his social channels on 31 January 2022 with the caption:
Could astronauts print plasters from their own skin cells? ️ We're not quite there yet, but I recently supported German Aerospace Center, DLR Bioprint FirstAid experiment on the International Space Station. This "plaster gun" is a bio-3D printer that produces a plaster-like covering for skin wounds from bio-ink. At this stage the ink is made from fluorescent microparticles rather than skin cells, but the goal is to use this technology not only in space, but also to provide personalised wound care for patients on the ground.

Testing out a Roll of Adox Colour Implosion film shot at 100 ASA using a Nikon F3HP camera, Nikkor Ai 50mm f/1.4 lens, and SB-16 Flash.
The film (and prints) look this bad on purpose, when shot at 100 ASA, the film has a definite blue cast, shot at 400 ASA, a Red cast. When I picked the film up from the lab, they thought I'd been shooting 30 year old film, rather than new film.

DELLE PENE
Alla prova dei fatti
non ci fu di che essere allegri:
torti, errori, viltà,
debolezze del cuore,
insanie che inquinarono la mente.
Pagammo in disparte nascondendo
le voci, l'ammontare,
i conti d'impossibile chiusura.
Vorremmo un'era
forte, aperta, precisa,
di pubblica chiarezza per le pene.
Non più pagare mediante equivalenze,
con conguagli privati, silenziosi,
ma tormenti, tenaglie squillanti
maschera gogna ruota rogo.
Visibile a tutta la città
la corda che ci tira per il collo.

Our youngest daughter, who is a peniless student, brought her printer/scanner home last week. "It appears to be defunct Dad can you fix it?". Looks like I have been successful, so this is by way of a test scan.
1956 Guy Arab 4/Park Royal belonging to "Tynemouth" and parked up on waste land behind Northumberland Square, North Shields. Note in the background a Guy Arab 3/ Pickering, Guy Arab 3/ Weymann (very heavy and eight foot wide), the E93A Ford Pop and what looks like the rear of a facelifted FA series Vauxhall Victor. This latter vehicle dates the picture to post 1960.
(From my collection)
Today I was teaching photography. Two classes which both 3 hours (3 x 45min). We photographed multiple exposures on FP-3000B film with Polaroid 100 camera and flash. And a little bit goop side image processing with photoshop. Here is my test sample so that the students understood what it is about..
Testing RX1R - the quality from the original RX1 is already fantastic but the detail you can see from the RX1R is both punishable but amazing, even when shot wide open!
As much as I'd love to own a Leica Q, I've put the money instead towards the two RX1 and one RX1R bodies currently in the stable and treat each one as disposable then.
Also testing a Magmod magsphere copy ... as said, it doesn't soften the light but spreads it out. Might still need to look around for a small outdoor diffuser which effectively softens the light. Umbrellas are great but I've lost quite a few equipment from being blown over in the wind >_<

Nano-indentation is a depth sensing indentation technique, which promises to become an important mechanical characterisation tool for electronics and sensors products. By using a nano-indentor, which can sample directly from the area of interest, engineers can begin to predict much more accurately how their products will behave.

and now I am further procrastinating by writing about my procrastination score - a lovely 63 that ranks me as an "above average procrastinator." But it also says I am more free-spirited than most. It's totally true what is says about stimulus control for me - that I need an office and visual spaces to get me working.
Who will I blame for this detour? Davidjacobs
Have I inspired you to procrastinate? If so, take your test with Procrastination Central and find out your score.
My Goal of 63:
You rank between the top 25% and 10% in terms of procrastination. That is, when it comes to putting things off, you often do so even though you know you shouldn’t. Likely, you are more free-spirited and spontaneous than most. Probably, your work doesn’t engage you as much as you would like or perhaps you are surrounded by easily available and more pleasant temptations. These temptations may initially seem rewarding, but in the longer-term, you see many of them as time-wasters. Though you likely often still get your work done, there is probably a lot of last minute panicking and unwanted stress. You may want to reduce what procrastination you do commit. If so, here are three tips that have been shown to work:
Goal Setting
This is one of the most established ways of moving forward on your plans. Take any project you are presently procrastinating and break it down into individual steps. Each of these steps should have the following three aspects. First, they should be somewhat challenging though achievable for you. It is more satisfying to accomplish a challenge. Second, they should be proximal, that is you can achieve them fairly soon, preferable today or over the next few days. Third, they should be specific, that is you know exactly when you have accomplished them. If you can visualize in your mind what you should do, even better.
Stimulus Control
This method has also been well tested and is very successful. What you need is a single place that you do your work and nothing else. Essentially, you need an office, though many students have a favorite desk at a library. For stimulus control to work best, the office or desk should be free of any signs of temptation or easily available distractions that might pull you away (e.g., no games, no chit-chat, no web-surfing). If you need a break, that is fine, but make sure you have it someplace at least a few minutes distant, preferably outside of the building itself. If you are unwilling to take the time to get there, acknowledge that you likely don’t need the break.
Routines
Routines are difficult to get into but in the end, this is often our aim. Things are much easier to do when we get into a habit of them, whether it is work, exercise, or errands. If you schedule some of those tasks you are presently procrastinating upon so that they occur on a regular schedule, they become easier. Start your routine slowly, something to which you can easily commit. Eventually, like brushing your teeth, it will likely become something you just do, not taking much effort at all. At this point, you might add to your routine, again always keeping your overall level of effort at a moderate to low level. Importantly, when you fall off your routine, inevitable with sickness or the unexpected, get back on it as soon as possible. Your routine gets stronger every time your follow it. It also gets weaker every time you don’t.
Procrastination has been reduced to a mathematical equation: U = E x V / I x D, where U is the desire to complete the task; E, the expectation of success; V, the value of completion; I, the immediacy of task; and D, the personal sensitivity to delay. For some types of tasks, my biggest stumbling block would be E—what if I'm no good? For others, it would be what, really, is the consequence of not cleaning the house for one more hour, or day? You can measure your own level of procrastination here. (via 43f)

Healey Mills to marsden MGR wagons, nice day for December, with dry rail / good conditions.
Loco ran round at Marsden, train returned to Healey Mills, success.....
Come 1981, when the Woodhead Route closed, these MGR's were a regular sight through Huddersfield, heading for the Fiddlers Ferry power station, at Warrington.
Often overloaded, and on a wet rail, chaos usually reigned for many an hour, as they failed to make the uphill struggle to Marsden. Stranded passengers everywhere, while their trains were diverted up the "Lanky" and just a few local stoppers to Leeds with no taxis / buses, or backup plan, it was awful, and it happened regularly.
A class 37 was on standby in platform 7, when this photo was taken, and 56 006 had a brake van marshalled, at each end of the wagons.
Looking at this now, it seems as if BR had the woodhead route stitched up already, even though it did last until 1981.

I am looking for some professional photo-editing software to buy. If you have any suggestions please let me know. This photo is a test of DXO Optics Pro 10. The program seems pretty good so far. It seems a little like the file size shrunk quite a bit though. Maybe that happened from me making the shadows darker or reducing the noise on this picture since the other pictures I have tried with DXO came out with a normal file size. To me it seems that DXO doesn't do all that I want an editing program to do but what it does do it does really well.
The Summit Place Mall opened in 1963 originally under the name "Pontiac Mall". Hudson's and Montgomery Ward were original anchor stores. In 1971, a free-standing Sears store was built north of the mall. In the late 1980s, JCPenney and MainStreet (later Kohl's) were added as part of a wing built between Montgomery Ward and Sears. Massive shopping centers owned by the mall (Summit West and Summit North) were built around the mall in the 1980s and 1990s, A Service Merchandise store also used some space at the mall that Hudson's split-off.
The nearby Great Lakes Crossing outlet mall opened in 1998. Both Montgomery Ward and Service Merchandise closed at the brink of the 2000s. Throughout the 2000s many smaller stores left the mall. Also during that time Hudson's changed to Marshall Field's, then Macy's. Kohl's closed their store in March 2009, The mall itself was closed in September 2009. Following the mall's closure, Macy's and JCPenney both left in March 2010. Sears closed in December 2014. The 1,500,000 square foot mall building has been condemned so it is likely the mall will be demolished within the next year or two.
