B53 Nuclear Bomb
The Mk/B53 was a high-yield bunker buster thermonuclear weapon developed by the United States during the Cold War. Deployed on Strategic Air Command bombers, the B53, with a yield of 9 megatons, was the most powerful weapon in the U.S. nuclear arsenal after the last B41 nuclear bombs were retired in 1976.
The B53 was the basis of the W-53 warhead carried by the Titan II Missile, which was decommissioned in 1987. Although not in active service for many years before 2010, fifty B53s were retained during that time as part of the "Hedge" portion of the Enduring Stockpile until its complete dismantling in 2011. The last B53 was disassembled on 25 October 2011, a year ahead of schedule.
With its retirement, the largest bomb currently in service in the U.S. nuclear arsenal is the B83, with a maximum yield of 1.2 megatons. The B53 was replaced in the bunker-busting role by a variant of the two-stage B61 nuclear bomb.

This was my first public DJ gig in ages that absolutely NONE of my friends attended. I did forget to promote it, as it was a weird, busy week, so that's probably my fault. Therefore, even though I think I did a really good job and people seemed to enjoy the music, it was kind of a sad night for me because I didn't know anyone. I always like the lamps they set up next to the booth, though. I took this photo to remind myself to make a flyer for EVERY bar gig I do, ever again.

A look around the strip in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1998, jazzed up. Music from Stockmusic.net. I thought this effect went really well with the footage and the music is fun for this too.
Evil Atomic Man Lives!
After the nasty accident with the cobra fangs the Atomic man lost both eyes & his hair turned black. Then there was that unfortunate accident with the bushman wielding a machete.
After many hours of reconstructive surgery he has recovered from all his injuries except for the brain damage that has caused him to become "Evil"!
Take care

Life-Like "Atomic Cannon" Kit No. 09662 1/40th scale
Uncle Sam's Cannon
Germany 1955
Using excellent research and photographs of the prototype, we depict here a super detailed replica of the U.S. Army's T-10 transporter and 280mm heavy gun, better known as the Atomic Cannon in 1/40th scale.
My most resent custom vintage Atomic Man parts added to a Wal-Mart Adventurer to make the “Atomic Adventurer”.
I still would like to add a LED for the eye, thinking blue for some reason.
I did have to borrow the hand copter from my other Atomic Man, so I’ll be on the hunt for a hand copter for this custom.

was a beautiful Central American boa constrictor (Boa constrictor imperator). Central American boas are native to southern Mexico through Central and Northern South America. When she was brought to the Boise zoo in 1990 she was extremely thin with bones showing and had three layers of unshed skin - really bad shape. A Boise State University biology student volunteered to help rehabilitate her. He named his animals after towns in Idaho; he had two frogs named "Challis" and "Chubbuck," two very small Idaho towns. He named the boa "Atomic City" after what is now a near ghost town adjacent to the Idaho National Laboratory in Central Idaho. (read nuclear research - INL was built on top of the Snake River Aquifer, but that is another story). Arco and Atomic City were the first communities in the world to be lit with power from a nuclear reactor in the 1950's. Arco is the county seat of Custer County, but the new townsite of Atomic City never quite caught on. The first thing we did was to soak the boa and helped her lose the dead skin. She was so weak we had to "assist feed" her. Soon, though, she started eating on her own and filled out. I took over her care in 1991 and cared for her until she died in 1996, probably of arthritis or some kind of bone disease. She was an older snake when we got her and she had had a horrible life. I'm really happy her last six years could be spent well cared for. After she died, we preserved her skin to use in the educational programs. This picture was taken in 1991 after she had gained her weight back. View in the large or original sizes to truly appreciate the incredibly beautiful irridescence of her scales.
