... are afoot!
Just as the Met office have announced that it'll be turning cold next week, I find today my first 'brown' Green shieldbug of the season!

After something ripped my black tights, I had to change them. And I only had a nude pair on hand. Luckily, the nude high heels matched them much better.
After a nice and sunny walk on the Cami de Cavalls from Punta Prima to Mahon, the weather changed dramatically when we reached Cala Corb.
A productive afternoon making art together at Pataphysical Studios.
Doctors Canard and Rindbrain completed an illuminated painting that is constantly changing, as the light box around it cycles through the colors of the rainbow. This creates an ethereal experience, as the brush strokes quietly shimmer and transform, to the sound of Brian Eno’s Music for Airports (see video: vimeo.com/151282015 ). Nicely done, doctors!
Our visitors this week were Michael Easton and his son Kyan, who seemed to enjoy themselves. A friend of Dr. Figurine’s, Michael is quite an accomplished artist, inventor and engineer and showed us some of his cool creations, including magical mushroom lights inspired by this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5LjGFkpApw
Doctor Fabio showed a Chinese New Year wonderbox prototype he is building for his upcoming maker workshops (bit.ly/wonderbox-overview ). Doctors Really and Igor worked on bringing sound to more wonderboxes. Dr. Rindbrain showed his new Universe cards about Mamie. Dr. Figurine worked on a Neopixel badge for her lab coat. Doctor Zboon showed some of his new pataphysical talismans. A fine time was had by all.

“Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.”
Charles Dickens (English novelist, generally considered the greatest of the Victorian era, 1812-1870)

It's time to go look for a job. I haven't worked for anyone in 17 years. I haven't interviewed for a job for 22 years.

Malaysia Airlines, following what has been difficult year for them in 2014 is undergoing major restructuring under the stewardship of CEO, Christoph Mueller.
The airline has already started withdrawing flights that are unprofitable, reducing frequencies to services to meet demand and is in the process of rebranding plus trimming its fleet size. The airline, historically known as Malaysia Airlines Systems (MAS) has since changed to Malaysia Airlines Berhad (MAB).
The airline has restructured its international long-haul destinations, Frankfurt is no longer served, Heathrow maintains its twice daily service with a few alterations, Paris has been downgraded from Airbus A380 to Boeing 777 operation whilst Amsterdam remains.
The main reason why Malaysia Airlines serve Amsterdam daily is mainly through its codeshare agreement with KLM, whereby passengers who book to Kuala Lumpur on KLM's website will be using Malaysia Airlines, their Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur flight is regularly busy.
It was Amsterdam that was the origin of MH17 that was shot-down over Ukraine last year, following on from the incident, Malaysia Airlines was swift to change the flight number from MH17 to now MH19, the MH16 flight number however remains. Whenever a flight number is associated with a severe accident or incident, the airline usually discontinues it, however there are a few exceptions to this rule...
Meanwhile, Malaysia Airlines continue to operate 13 Boeing 777's, all on the 777-200ER. The fleet originally stood at 17, however 4 are no longer in the fleet, one scrapped, one in long-term storage and 2 written-off following accidents. Malaysia Airlines use their Boeing 777-200ER's to Amsterdam, Guangzhou and Paris.
Mike Romeo Mike was delivered new to Malaysia Airlines in April 2001, currently leased from BOC and she is powered by 2 Rolls-Royce Trent 892 engines.
Boeing 777-2H6ER 9M-MRM powers out of Runway 24 'Kaagbaan' at Amsterdam Schiphol (AMS) on MH19 to Kuala Lumpur (KUL).
The archaeological remains of Stabiae were originally discovered in 1749 by Cavaliere Rocco de Alcubierre, an engineer working for king Charles VII of Naples. These ruins were partially excavated by Alcubierre with help from Karl Weber between 1749–1782. The ruins that had been excavated, however, were reburied and their location was forgotten until 1950, when a high school principal rediscovered them. The site was declared an archaeological protected area in 1957, and by 1962 many of the ruins had been again uncovered. The remains of both an Oscan settlement (oppidum) and the later Roman town were discovered.
The most famous of the findings at Stabiae are the villas that come from the time between the destruction of Stabiae by Sulla in 89 BC and the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.As described above, Stabiae became a resort town during this time and was particularly favored for its view of the Bay of Naples and the surrounding mountains. Stabiae was also well known for the quality of its spring water, which was believed to have medicinal properties. The ideal placement and qualities of this location drew many wealthy Romans to build luxurious villas on the ridge overlooking the bay.
Among the many villas found at Stabiae, the most famous are Villa San Marco, Villa Del Pastore, and Villa Arianna. Some of the other villas include Villa Carmiano, Villa del Petraro, and Villa Capella di San Marco.
Villa Arianna
Named for the fresco depicting Dionysus saving Ariadne from the island of Dia (a mythological name for Naxos), this villa is particularly famous for its frescoes, many of which depict light, winged figures.[2] It is difficult to get a clear sense of this villa, however, because it grew over the course of 150 years. It has one of the largest courtyards of any Roman villa; measuring two stadia in length. Another feature of Villa Arianna is its private tunnel system that links the villa in its location on the ridge to the sea shore, which was probably only between 100 and 200 metres away from the bottom of the hill in Roman times. The shoreline has since changed, leaving the archaeological site further inland than it was in antiquity.

I had a spare smaller Christmas tree from a bargain Craigslist lot and substituted the big concrete base for a smaller plastic base.
A changing of times! As two vehicles pass each other on the road of time, you are witnessing an historical change. An Amish farmer along the road in Lancaster, PA.
Soon to be displaced by Class 398 Stadler "Citylink" Trams, "Sprinter" 150213 arrives at a much changed Llandaf with 2E12 14:23 Radyr - Bridgend on 19/3/2023.
The biggest changes to Poe's personal X-Wing come in the colouration. He has a notably lighter silver than his generic counterparts, something I felt keen to replicate.
IC SD40-2 6034, built for the GM&O as SD40 920 and rebuilt somewhere along the way with a GP9 nose after a wreck, was trailing a SD70 through the 16th Street interlocking.
In the background, work on the gentrification of downtown Chicago can be seen. Today, the factories and jobs are gone and condos and a Starbucks on every corner have taken their places.
The 6034 was retired and scrapped by Canadian National in 2009.

I need/want (to) change.
I'll make it happen. I'm just not sure how.
It's kind of funny, because I noticed that, everytime I really really want something, anything to change, I change my hair. Even if it's just a little bit.
See more car pics on my facebook page!
The Iso Grifo is an Italian automobile produced by Iso Rivolta between 1963 and 1974.
The car developed 390 hp (290 kW) in its production form and could reach 110 km/h (68 mph) in first gear. Renzo Rivolta also showed a one-off Grifo A3/L Spyder at the Geneva auto show. The production of Iso Grifo GL started in 1965. In October 1966 the very first Grifo (car #97) with Targa Top was shown at Turin. This was one of 13 Series I Targas ever built; later, four series II Targas were built.
In 1968 the Grifo 7 Litri was introduced with a Chevrolet L71 big-block engine, a Tri-Power version of the 427 engine. This seven-liter power plant required changes to the car to fit, and a hood scoop was needed because of the engine's height. It produced 435 hp (324 kW) at 5800 rpm and the factory claimed it could reach a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). This particular 7 Litri is still lost.

I'm going Coinstar this bad daddy.
First closest guess (to how much Coinstar gives me back) within fiddy cents gets the munneys (via the CoinStar method of payment).
I love Coinstar. It's like a game that everyone wins.
But this time, it's you, the public, who wins.
Please comment your guess here for posterity.
Spoilers abound here!
