PLEASE READ!!
I have a project for college that I need help with. The project is to make or remake a specific device for someone who is disabled in some way. I chose to remake the Lego picker upper thing shown here, under my newest creation "Happy Lion". The purpose is to allow someone who has a broken arm/hand, or is missing an arm/hand, to pick up a mass amount of Lego elements easier.
So if you are a Lego builder who has to pick up mass amounts of Lego elements off the floor constantly, or if you've ever used this Lego picker upper, then I need your help. Over the next few weeks I'll just have to consult you on a few topics and ask a few questions.
Please message me if you're interested.

While I was able to see some throwing items in my direction, there was always someone out of my vision also aiming for my location (I got hit up side the head many a time by flying cups/necklaces/etc)

"A mais antiga feira de Portugal, pelo menos, a mais antiga de que há referência em documento escrito. Na feira tudo tem o seu lugar certo, nos mesmos sítios há um ror de anos; tudo é arrumado pela mesma ordem e na mesma hora. Aqueles que vendem têm o seu cantinho reservado há anos e os que compram sabem exactamente onde encontrar aquilo de que precisam. A feira de Ponte de Lima é um marco da vida do concelho."
"...chegou até ao rio Lima (Lethes) e, perante a recusa dos seus soldados em cruzá-lo pelo temor de perderem a memória (pois corria a lenda de que o Lethes era o mítico "Rio do Esquecimento"), Bruto cruzou-o primeiro e os seus soldados seguiram-no ao sentirem que chamava por eles." (in Wikipédia)
Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus
"Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus was a Roman politician and general of the 2nd century BC. Brutus led the Roman legions in the conquest of western Iberia after the death of Viriathus, chieftain of the Lusitanians. In his conquest, he scored major victories in the south of modern Portugal, before going on to the north. He had the city of Olissipo (modern Lisbon) fortified and advanced to the north, destroying settlements as he went. A fortified position was established at Viseu, the Douro river was crossed and the Lima river was reached by 137 BC. Ultimately, according to Strabo, Brutus conquered the Minho River. At the end of Brutus' campaigns, Rome controlled the territory between the Douro and Minho rivers plus probable extensions along the coast and in the interior.

Amongst authors in Antiquity, the tiny Limia River between Northern Portugal and Galicia (Spain) was said to have the same properties of memory loss as the legendary Lethe River. In 138 BC, the Roman general Decimus Junius Brutus sought to dispose of the myth, as it impeded his military campaigns in the area. He was said to have crossed the Limia and then called his soldiers on the other side, one by one, by name. The soldiers, astonished that their general remembered their names, crossed the river as well without fear. This act proved that the Limia was not as dangerous as the local myths described."

The Bad Boys from Boston, American rockers Aerosmith headlined the first of two nights of the Calling Festival newly relocated to South London’s Clapham Common.
The Steven Tyler-led rockers brought their unique blend of entertaining rock to a damp London evening, re-energising the sodden crowd with a mixed set drawn from their extensive back catalogue as well a cover of The Beatles 1969 hit Come Together. They began the 18-song set with Mama Kin from their 1973 eponymous debut album before moving onto Get a Grip hit Eat the Rich and Pump classing Love in an Elevator.
Hits Walk This Way and Dude (Looks Like a Lady) also featured before the encore was opened with classic Dream On featuring Tyler playing piano and Joe Perry playing guitar … on the piano!
It’s surprising just how much energy the 66-year-old Tyler and 63-year-old Perry convey up on stage with such engaging performances and on-stage hijinks that kept the crowd enthralled from the outset until the closing bars of Toys in the Attic classic Sweet Emotion.
You always said that I only had to call your name ……And that you would, come running back to me…….Well now, I am calling you, calling your name……So just what are you going to do……
