The 23'' Brave Mama Bear Plush Toy, released by the Disney Store online and in stores in the US and Canada on May 14, 2012. The price is $39.50 US. She is the transformed Queen Elinor, has a soft crown on her head, articulated arms and legs, soft black fur, faux leather nose and paws, and embroidered eyes.
Her legs rotate 360 degrees about the hip joint, and her arms are bendable, with internal wiring. When her legs are rotated so she is standing, they are not sturdy or stiff enough for her to be stable free standing, so she needs a bit of support to stand. However, she is very stable sitting down. She is a hefty doll, weighing in at 3 pounds 2 ounces (1.417 kg). Her fur is VERY soft, and looks and feels like real fur, and her body is soft and cuddly. As she is handled, some individual hairs come loose, but there is very minimal shedding.
She is a very accurate depiction of the mama bear in the Brave trailers shown so far. The tag on the bear actually says ''Mum Bear'' which the (mostly) British way of saying Mother (or Mama) Bear.

Celebrating First Nations' spirituality and culture through the songlines of our land and sky, this year’s Lighting the Sails is about painting and celebrating country through a pattern of sharing systems, interconnected history lines and trade routes.
Lighting the Sails Director and Head of Indigenous Programming at Sydney Opera House Rhoda Roberts has selected six artists of different clans, national estates and territories for an immersive projected artwork that weaves through time and distance.
As the first indigenous work commissioned exclusively for the sails of the Sydney Opera House, this visual tapestry will weave through personal journeys, while celebrating the timeless themes and enduring art of Australia's most influential contemporary First Nations artists, exclusive to Vivid Sydney.

La ameba Nebela se ha echado a dormir, se ha enquistado dentro de su cascarón de pepitas de cuarzo formando una esfera como el mundo; así estará bien arropada y protegida, y quizá de esa forma pueda pasar mejor el invierno de hielo, en la Sierra de la Culebra le espera bajo los aullidos sobrecogedores de los lobos que a veces visitan la charca en la que vive.
Hoy la Naturaleza ha gastado una broma a esta ameba discreta, colocando sobre la cúpula de su casa un tirabuzón. Molinete verde que adorna su cabeza haciéndola presumida en este tiempo de sueño invernal. La espiral de la vida seguirá su ciclo y este filamento que adorna como una joya minúscula, la minúscula casa de joya de Nebela se irá despertando al desperezarse la espiral, cuando sople el viento de primavera.
Cuando ella llegue se convertirá en hilo ondulado...hilo de vida de una cianobacteria que aunque recuerda a Lyngbia contorta probablemente sea Scitonema...y que ha hecho lo mismo que Nebela. Se ha convertido en un ovillo para pasar estos fríos de invierno junto a la compañía de esta ameba. Cuando la primavera empiece a despertar ellas lo harán también transformando su belleza estática en latido.
La ameba Nebela protege su cuerpo dentro de un cascarón fuertemente comprimido en forma de gota y ese cascarón de doble capa, se cubre hoy de pepitas de cuarzo transparentes que ella misma fabrica como gotas de cristal.
La cápsula que encierra el cuerpo de Nebela suele ser ligeramente ocre o amarillenta, comprimida lateralmente y presenta pequeños poros laterales difíciles de observar. El cuello tras el que se encuentra la apertura de su casa - que puede ser lineal, ligeramente o fuertemente curvada - es muy corto, apenas está marcado y su borde está rodeado por un collar de materia orgánica.
El caparazón y casa de esta ameba puede estar compuesto de dos capas una interna constituida por un cemento orgánico y la más externa donde se adhieren partículas minerales, restos de diatomeas o placas de sílice fabricadas por ella misma, como ocurre en la Nebela de hoy. El caso es que para que pueda tener esta capa exterior fabricada con placas, necesita alimentarse de otras amebas que también tengan caparazón. Si no lo tienen y se alimenta solo de amebas desnudas, su cuerpo estará también semidesnudo y únicamente protegido por la capa más interna de cemento traslúcido.
Cuando camina por los fondos Nebela desparrama sus brazos en el agua abriéndose en ella y abrazándola como gruesas raíces móviles que se funden y desaparecen para volver a surgir en mil formas diferentes.
Nebella tubulosa , no es una ameba común, la de hoy vive entre los esfagnos de una turbera situada en las inmediaciones de la pequeña localidad de Boya, situado en pleno corazón de la Sierra de la culebra de Zamora y ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos con la técnica de contraste de interferencia.
Excerpt from irisvanherpen.com:
BIOPIRACY - In the recent past, patents on our genes have been purchased. Are we still the sole proprietor of our bodies? From this question arises a sense of arrested freedom in one's most intimate, solitary state. A mix of ready-to-wear and couture pieces is presented with artist Lawrence Malstaf -who specializes in the interaction between biology and physicality.
Models float in the air, embryonic, seemingly weightless and in a meditative suspended animation.
Metamorphosis is suggested through intricate enmeshing of materials. Imprisoned fire opal beads gleam through lacerated weaves, artificial fibers compose voluminous, architectural structures, the organic ripple of light on water.
A 3D printing collaboration with Julia Koerner fuses the artisanal with the technical to create a kinetic dress which dances as it amplifies bodily movement. Molded boots in collaboration with United Nude accelerate and reconfigure the silhouette.
Following years of neglect and decline Belfast's waterfront has been transformed, becoming a focus for business, leisure and cultural activities and a place of opportunity for all. Laganside Corporation (1989 - 2007) received international recognition as a regeneration agency for its achievement in successfully turning the vision of the Laganside area as an exciting place to live, work and play into a reality. This success is reflected in the ongoing momentum for development with the waterfront becoming an integral part of Belfast's city centre.
Over 4km of riverside pathways exist within Laganside, allowing easy access from the heart of the city to the wide-open spaces of Lagan Valley Regional Park. These pathways form part of the Sustrans National Millennium Cycle Network, a new map of which is available from the Lagan Lookout Visitor Centre, and have been used for a variety of events including Laganside’s 10k race, cycle fun days, story telling and mural painting.
Sustrans Route 9 cycle path will eventually connect Belfast and Dublin. The route is currently open and signed between Queen Elizabeth Bridge in Belfast and Slieve Gullion (south of Newry) via Lisburn, Craigavon, Portadown and Scarva.
Route 9
Description
1. Belfast to Portadown
National Route 9 follows the River Lagan towpath south west from Belfast to Lisburn, from here meandering along small country roads with some short hills to the most southerly shore of Lough Neagh.
The route continues to Craignavon and Portadown along custom built traffic-free paths. National Route 9 between Kilmore Bridge and Newry Canal is part of the Craigavon Cycle Trail and Belfast to Portadown also forms part of EuroVelo 1.
2. Portadown to Newry and Slieve Gullion
The route follows the towpath on the western bank of the now non-navigable Newry Canal for the 20 miles to link Portadown and Newry. National Route 9 continues for a short stretch on minor roads to Camlough and Slieve Gullion Courtyard Centre.

A couple of photos today from inside the National Museum of Scotland. This was taken inside the new contemporary extension, really like the design and use of light in this area.
Union Pacific dispatched a Customer Special through Salt Lake City, Utah on May 20, 2024. Symbol SESML 16 carried a large transformer, en route from East St. Louis, Illinois to Moss Landing, California. The train originated in Mcgehees, Alabama, handled by HLI Rail Rigging Logistics, and shipped by CSX to East St. Louis. The load is mounted to a 12-axle, low boy type flat car. The other seven random freight cars were included for buffering and braking.

Pointblank from G1 Transformers cartoon series, turns into a futuristic speedster. Transformation doesn't require reassembly of parts.
I am taking inspiration from both his original toy version from the 80s and also some design cues from his cartoon/comic version.
