Just outside Bozeman, Montana sits this very cool old black car. I don't know what kind of car it is, but I'm sure at least a few of my flickr friends do! So If you know please share :) This car was for sale in June (maybe it still is!) so I hope the person who owns it doesn't mind me "advertising" it on flickr haha. I thought it was such a beautiful old car, and loved the green grass around it and the blue Bridger Mountains in the background.

Pure Spirits Building

 

3 Tank House Lane

 

Located on the east side of Trinity Street, the Pure Spirits group contains seven buildings that are linked physically, functionally, and architecturally. Built in 1873 for alcohol purification (aka, rectification) and storage, these buildings dominate the east side of Trinity Street, define the south side of Tank House Lane, and present some of the finest industrial architecture on the site. Stills were located in the structures fronting on Trinity Street, while storage tanks were located in one-storey warehouses behind. Given the potentially explosive nature of the process, the Pure Spirits buildings contained large amounts of glass and wood that would have blown out to save the buildings. The architect solved the practical problem with unusual elegance.

FlickrStats: Nifty webapp that retrieves stats from Flickr's API and graphs them using Google's graphs API. Offers domain referral and search keyword totals for arbitrary date ranges an semi-apt plotting of high-view shots. More importantly, it persists your data for longer than Flickr is willing to now.

 

A great app, but for me, the long-term graph of daily hits for the last 2 years is... not all that informative without logarithmic scaling.

Below are parts lists from Jameco (and one from Radio Shack). Jameco doesn't have the cheapest parts, but they do have an easy-to-use site, ship fast, and carry just about everything that a weekend electronics geek would need. If you want to really scrimp, shop at Digikey or Mouser, and you'll probably save a few bucks on these parts.

 

Parts list (from Jameco):

- 1 x Mac mini-din 8-pin cable ($3.29)

- 1 x serial cable with DB9 9-pin female connector ($3.95)

- 1 x 78L05 +5VDC voltage regulator ($0.27)

- 1 x MAX232 RS-232 transceiver ($2.19)

- 1 x green LED ($1.40 for 10)

- 1 x 220 ohm resistor ($0.69 for 100)

- 6 x 1 uF electrolytic capacitor ($1.20 for 10)

 

And from Radio Shack:

- 1 x prototyping pc board ($1.79)

  

Luckily I had all these parts in my part drawer, so the actual cost for me was zero. If you've ever done any little projects, you probably have some of these parts laying around too.
