A person trained in human osteology would notice several skeletal features of interest in this individual.
For example, the epiphysis on the distal end of the right humerus has not yet fused. In males, fusion takes place at between 15 and 18 years of age. That means our Halloween skeleton is a teen, which is about right.
Also, the 5 metacarpals in his right hand have fused together, a condition that could only occur through chronic overuse of that appendage.
His scapulae are so small as to scarcely provide any support to his shoulders. This is consistent with the slump-shouldered posture of a teen boy who spends too much time on his mobile device.

In 2020 a severe rainstorm totaled a building that housed a popular restaurant on the strip at the tourist town of Long Beach, Washington.
After standing vacant for the remainder of 2020, the building finally showed signs of life last year.
Yesterday we noticed this seasonal art on the ground-floor windows. If the quality of the restaurant is as high as the designs, Long Beach can look forward to the opening of another good dining spot.
Dennis Lloyd is the alias of Nir Tibor, a heartfelt singer and frank lyricist, as well as a trumpeter and producer, with a dusky hybrid sound that organically incorporates classic soul influences. The Tel Aviv, Israel native debuted in 2015 with “Playa (Say That),” after which he spent a year based in Bangkok, Thailand, where he wrote and recorded dozens of new songs. A handful of additional singles and accompanying videos were released across 2016 and early 2017. The most successful of the bunch was “Nevermind,” a ballad quickly streamed well over a million times and added to playlists of radio stations in Lloyd’s home country. All the while, Lloyd was active as a performer in small venues and at festivals. Following a two-year gap, the singer returned in early 2019 with the EP Exident. The single, “Wild West,” appeared later that year. ~ Andy Kellman
Tiffany's outfit from the boho chic inspired shoot! My fave among them, I like this style, especially the cardigan and dress together with the shoes! And the sunglases are nice!
Hope you like it! ^^

On Saturday, November 26, NASA is scheduled to launch the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission featuring Curiosity, the largest and most advanced rover ever sent to the Red Planet.
The Curiosity rover bristles with multiple cameras and instruments, including Goddard's Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument suite. By looking for evidence of water, carbon, and other important building blocks of life in the Martian soil and atmosphere, SAM will help discover whether Mars ever had the potential to support life. Curiosity will be delivered to Gale crater, a 96-mile-wide crater that contains a record of environmental changes in its sedimentary rock, in August 2012.

Goddard scientist Jennifer Eigenbrode injected a chemical into a rock sample and then heated the test tube to determine whether the sample-preparation method preserved the sample's molecular structure. Her testing proved successful, ultimately leading to the experiment's inclusion on the Sample Analysis at Mars instrument.

As a final slide in my Flickr stats analysis, here are the things that I have found that drive high view counts:
Explore can drive really high counts, especially getting in the top 10.
The Flickr Blog galleries also get tons of views. I like getting in these galleries because there is a person curating the gallery. And the images follow a theme. I think these Flickr blog galleries are my favorite feature for browsing new photos. I also often post my photos in the comments section of galleries when I like the theme.
Search terms can drive views, but the only one that has gotten a really high count is World War II.
Finally, being used to illustrate blogs is always fun. I use the Common Attribution license and that makes it easy for blogs and news sites to use my photos. I have found some really interesting blogs by seeing them in my stats referral section. My most popular blog photo is the Drone and Moon photo. Drones with cameras have been very topical over the last year. Also my photo of the Crooked House on the beach gets used in environmental blogs. There have been others used along the way too.
I hope you enjoyed my Flickr analysis. This is the last of the PowerPoint slides, at least until next time. Back to the fun stuff.
Side effects of being an over-thinker: simple things become complex, minor issues turn into grand dramas, you become a master of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, an expert at misinterpret people and what they say, there is always something to worry about, all your time is wasted on over-analysing everything and everyone. And nothing is ever good enough.
But you always have something to do.

This notation from page 12 of the 1998 copyrighted volume, THE COMPLETE M1 GARAND, details the analysis of machinists, industrial engineers, and photomicrographic technicians regarding this phenomenon, observed mainly in the over two million wartime rifles, intermittently.
In particular, Nicholas Gaal of Mesa showed us how this milling machine effect transpires. Interesting lesson in applied production techniques, not to mention forensic & scientific examination. He did precision mill work and machining for half a century.
The others contacted, including retired SA personnel contacted in the 80's, verified. Glenn Lilly, machinist, engineer, and process analyst, was also in the since-deleted footnotes. Van Miller worked at Springfield Armory 1939-55 or so.
The production engineering consultants agreed, and so did the surviving staff. Microscope tracking of the marks and stress photography verified.
It was not seen as a defect, and in fact, as noted in the analysis, the receivers were probably a tad stronger in that "horseshoe" area than others.
This was discussed with other machinists and production engineering/applications specialists, and surviving firearms manufacturing personnel of that place and period.
Verification and corroboration was universal. And unanimous.
All the expert testimony, of course, means nothing to Internet gods and omnipotent experts who weren't even born twenty or thirty years after this happened. They "know" stuff because they "hear it" from...whoever they hear their untest insane malarkey from.
This happened very intermittently at the very height of production. The forgings, of course, had been detail inspected, long before this eventuated. It is not a fault or void, that was established even before the instrumentation was assembled.
Interesting sub-factoid: The rifle on the right was received with a fabric strap with G.I. buckles, but the material was apparently off some other U.S. government strapping setup, and while 1 1/4", bore a stock number suggesting it was never intended for rifles. If I recall, it was for a very large duffel-style equipment cover of some type. However, it was very sturdy material, heavier than that seen on canvas straps for rifles. It was re-purposed and stitched in a non-regulation manner, that frayed end never having received the metal fitting. Eventually a crush fit "tongue" was installed, and it was given away. It was very long.
Another amusing note: Rifle #44702, the next unit left, still bore a very badly worn barrel from September of 1940 and its original butt stock, plus several other very early parts. In the research ongoing on the time, that was an interesting signal of sorts: the gas trap configuration was being dumped and reversed within a few months of manufacture. Fitted with a "replica" barrel, surmarked "RSB", correct short pinion/flush nut rear sight setup, and a few other restoratives, that old rifle, still accompanied by its old original tube separately, was passed on to a friend in federal law enforcement. No idea how or why the original replacement 1940 barrel was still mounted, as the receiver had undergone the procedures to obviate the "seventh round stoppage" issue, and the prevailing theory among the collectors who saw it was that POSSIBLY (no, not "definitely"--there is a difference!!) the change-outs would've been done simultaneously with the removal of the shorter "gas trap" barrel rig.
This might've been the "feature" shot of that shipment, in which case those T105 rear sights were on 44702 when unpacked. However, the last smatterings of detailed notes I have from the time said, "Damaged flush nut sights on rifle but not secure." I am not sure at what point I purchased the other set of flush nuts, or swapped out the parts. I handled so much material at that time it was a blur within a few weeks. Main point being, RESTORATIONS ARE EXPENSIVE and not a lot of fun.
The 'smith who did the measuring and metallurgical workups had some other fascinating observations, too, on both of these rifles. He worked on them 1938-62, and was light years ahead of any of us on the minute details. Even further ahead of the published literature!!!
However, no hard tracks of this seem to remain at the armory, apparently, and the industrial historians seem never to speak with mere "ordinary" factory workers, either vintage ones or those who have done similar operations. I did, as best I could, and a lot of times did not understand what I was being told. This made sense, generally, much later, when the student in me re-read the notes.
These things are continually attacked.
I never could figure out why, and lately, am uninterested in knowing.
Since doing the missives, and especially since 2008, I've been tossing notes and targets and the flotsam and jetsam of a half century of what, essentially, has been sadly wasted time I could've spent doing something productive. And the paperwork on this critter is part of that cleanup.
If I'd known this entire sillyassed adventure ended with throwing out half a ton of notes as late as forty years after taking them, and not generate any respect or income worth discussing, I'd have spent my time looking out the window instead.
The move in 2020 involved hauling another half ton of notes and targets to the dumpster, along with the manuscripts and synopses of books and other research that will never be published or distributed
Annoying assertions in "whacko world" are held, as Azimov so wisely remarked some forty + years ago, in esteem by some as if they were information, knowledge, logic, or analysis. How sad.

Full color infrared photo achieved by taking three images at different bands, one around 950-1000nm, one around 850nm and one around 720nm. Images were then mapped to RGB.
Full spectrum photo was achieved by combining the six total channels obtained by taking a normal color photograph and the three infrared ones.
Multispectral analysis was done by comparing the data from the six individual channels.
the different colors highlight areas with different chemical compositions. I don't have the precise instruments to measure but I think that turquoise represents areas with high concentrations of Iron(III) oxide.
The areas that appear blue in the infrared image also display a curious behavior, where they start absorbing more the deeper into IR you go, which is relatively rare.
