I haven't sourced long enough tubing sections yet so I'm joining two lengths. The join is offset per layer to maintain strength, the join is wrapped with vinyl tape to finish.
Wandering through Siena on my way to the duomo I came cross this ornate loop fastened to the wall. I don't know what it's for; I'd guess it's a tying-up spot for horses. Or llamas.
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "On the medium and small sized farms one finds the cows tethered--usually in a straight line across the field. This eliminates the need for fences, it eliminates the need of cutting hay during the green season and it assures the best of fresh succulent feed as the stakes are moved by degrees across the field. It does require more labor in miking and carrying water which would make the system impractical in America."

This hack was way simpler than I thought. I don't have many reasons now to jailbreak my iPhone. iPhone tethering works over USB or bluetooth. I had tethering before on iPhone 2.2 using iPhonemodem.de which created a network and connected the iPhone to mac via WiFi.
the safety, security and wisdom of duplicating this is questionable. ie. this was just a stunt to see if it could be done. :)

Bournemouth, Dorset, UK
Bournemouth is an English south coast resort of fairly recent origin, dating its first habitation to around 1810. It is a thriving commercial centre for the region as well as a holiday and tourist destination. Whilst the average age of indigenous residents, including the student population is around 30 years, the average rises steeply with the influx of coachloads of elderly people that swamp the town centre.
During the summer months of 2010 a tethered helium balloon took people aloft for breathtaking views of the surroundings. The brightly coloured inflatable was visible from most parts of the town.
The balloon is visible from The Triangle.

Our neighbour tied this fairy figurine to the fence, presumably so the raccoons and squirrels wouldn't run off with it.
