Richland, WA remembers the beginning of the Manhattan Project, 75 years ago. Music and dancing in the park recall the 40s and 50s.

Atomic Robo is one of my favorite comics right now. If you've never read it or heard of it, go out and buy it now. Robo is the fictional creation of scientist Nikola Tesla, created in the early 1900s. All the stories are in miniseries format, some depicting present day and others depicting various times of his life. He fights monsters, vampires, robots, and the occasional talking dinosuar. Seriously, check it out, its good stuff.
Items left behind in one of the abandoned middle schools in Pripyat.
Named for the nearby Pripyat River, Pripyat was founded on 4 February 1970, the ninth nuclear city in the Soviet Union, for the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was officially proclaimed a city in 1979, and had grown to a population of 49,360 before being evacuated a few days after the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
Though Pripyat is located within the administrative district of Ivankiv Raion, the abandoned city now has a special status within the larger Kiev Oblast (province), being administered directly from Kiev. Pripyat is also supervised by Ukraine's Ministry of Emergencies, which manages activities for the entire Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Access to Pripyat, unlike cities of military importance, was not restricted before the disaster as nuclear power stations were seen by the Soviet Union as safer than other types of power plants. Nuclear power stations were presented as being an achievement of Soviet engineering, where nuclear power was harnessed for peaceful projects. The slogan "peaceful atom" (Russian: ?????? ????, mirnyj atom) was popular during those times. The original plan had been to build the plant only 25 km (16 mi) from Kiev, but the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, among other bodies, expressed concern about it being too close to the city. As a result, the power station and Pripyat were built at their current locations, about 100 km (62 mi) from Kiev. After the disaster the city of Pripyat was evacuated in two days.

Some new faces, some old, made new friends and generally we were in our elements.
Rhetorical question but did we have a blast? You bet!
Amazing group, top guys. Till the next time!

The Atomic Arrow is an extremely fast speeder bike named after its dart-like shape and neon-green glow. Equipped with a gamma fusion engine, hard-light stabilizer wings, and powerful thrusters, this lean, mean, racing machine was built for speed! You can see it here racing down the Nightline City Raceway at breakneck speeds piloted by its rider Jade Lightning.
This is my Nightline City entry for the Lego Speeder Bikes Racing League contest.
Fire Bird Birth From Fiery Sun OR Flying Into A Dark But Bright Future?
(Better view: farm3.static.flickr.com/2601/3725094927_71be8c27be_b.jpg )
Is it the birth by fire of a new Fire Bird? Or a dark angel looming above, bringing misgivings? Or the power of dreams flying into a dark, monstrous, malevolent cloud formation -- just beyond which is the promise of pure light and brightness. And just beyond that, visions of God?
The thunder cloud's malevolence separated from the life-giving sun by the razor edge of hope and miracle. A possibility of coming out from storms into the light, however briefly, at least until the final sunset on a life of fantastic flights of fantasy.
Or a little bit of it all?
Smith Point Beach in Long Island, NY is a favorite place of mine to catch sunsets over expansive vistas of water. This time we were there ahead of time and I shot some pictures waiting for the sun to set.
As this bird came towards me, somewhat like the apparition of one Alexander the Great sees in the movie ALEXANDER, the silhouette came into focus. I clicked and snapped a mesmerizing image.

in waldport, oregon, they burned down the old high school... it wasn't an accident -- a new school was built up out of the tsunami hazard zone and the waldport fire department used the old school for fire training... i came across it after seeing the plume from miles away... the smoke was thick and intense, and acted like a cool filter for the sun...
Powered by an atomic energy ball and built with a diamond/titanium hybrid alloy, this small bot can lift incredible weight and sustain massive forces, which makes it ideal for a number of tasks such as car throwing, wall smashing, and taking things apart really fast....just don't ask him to put it back together. Impulsive, irrational, and indestructable - this bot has a set of characteristics that end up getting him into trouble.
The flow of bots never cease, I really should build something else, but new head ideas just keep popping up - and you really should have a body to go with them. Some ideas here taking from my previous bots, so not really a whole lot of new stuff going on.

What Google Vision AI sees:
The image shows a book cover depicting a mushroom cloud resulting from an atomic bombing. In the foreground is a city skyline, suggesting the devastation of an urban area. The background is a vivid blue sky, which contrasts sharply with the destructive image of the atomic blast. A yellow shield-shaped emblem in the center proclaims "HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF", emphasizing the book's purpose. The cover shows signs of age and wear, suggesting it's a vintage publication.
The book cover appears to target a general audience; there are no specific individuals depicted. However, the implied audience is likely citizens living in fear of atomic warfare, expressing anxiety and concern. The emotions depicted on the cover are of fear and concern; the color palette contributes to the overall sense of impending doom. The cover's style suggests it was likely created in the mid-20th century, during a period of significant fear surrounding the atomic bomb. The subtle use of color and shading helps build up the image, even though the artwork is quite simple.
The cover uses simple, bold graphics and a straightforward layout, a technique common in educational material from that era. The style is easily understandable to different age groups and literacy levels. The use of bold colors (yellow and red) enhances the alarming nature of the message. The text is large and easy to read, maximizing visual impact and accessibility. The choice of imagery and language are designed to be clear and direct, making the message about the dangers of an atomic attack quickly apparent even to those with limited exposure to the topic.
The beach at Dungeness is the largest shingle peninsula in Europe. It's quite a sight, with lighthouses, wooden cottages and other abandoned buildings dotted across the area. There are also two nuclear power stations. This is a shot of Dungeness A, the older of the two, which ceased generating electricity in December 2006.
