This is the roof of the main analysts' building, which once hosted a myriad of computers and other technological equipment to assist with the filtering of radio signals. Positioned behind this area was the British section of Teufelsberg.
The spy station was part of the global Echelon intelligence gathering network created to monitor the military and diplomatic communications of the Soviet Union and its Eastern Bloc allies during the Cold War. It was located in the British Sector, but the Brits and Americans didn't trust each other. So they split up the area in two, built everything twice and double-eavesdropped on their enemies.
A recent trend among urban graffiti artists has been the creation of images which can be identified from satellite and aerial imagery firms such as Google Earth. Here, you can even see a painted "QR Code" which will take you to an informational website if you scan it with a mobile phone.
Signs promoting the Burren Code in English, French, Italian, Polish, Spanish and German. Apparently visitors to the Burren tend to break pieces of the limestone pavement to make little cairns. I've no idea why. In the background you can see two of the Aran Islands in the distance.

Some background:
The Lavochkin La-7 (Russian: Лавочкин Ла-7) was a piston-engine Soviet fighter developed during World War II by the Lavochkin Design Bureau (OKB). It was a development and refinement of the Lavochkin La-5, and the last in a family of aircraft that had begun with the LaGG-1 in 1938.
By 1943, the La-5 had become a mainstay of the Soviet Air Forces, yet both its head designer, Semyon Lavochkin, as well as the engineers at the Central Aerohydrodynamics Institute (Russian: TsAGI), felt that it could be improved upon. TsAGI refined earlier studies of aerodynamic improvements to the La-5 airframe in mid-1943 and modified La-5FN to evaluate the changes between December 1943 and February 1944 and proved to have exceptional performance.
Using the same engine as the standard La-5FN the modified aircraft had a top speed of 684 kilometers per hour (425 mph) at a height of 6,150 meters (20,180 ft), some 64 kilometers per hour (40 mph) faster than the production La-5FN. It took 5.2 minutes to climb to 5,000 meters (16,404 ft). Main change was the use of more lighter but stronger metal wing spars to save weight.
The La-5, as well as its predecessors, had been built mostly of wood to conserve strategic materials such as aircraft alloys. With Soviet strategists now confident that supplies of these alloys were unlikely to become a problem, Lavochkin was now able to replace some wooden parts with alloy components.
Combat trials began in mid-September 1944 and were generally very positive.
However four aircraft were lost to engine failures and the engines suffered from numerous lesser problems, despite its satisfactory service in the La-5FN. One cause was the lower position of the engine air intakes in the wing roots of the La-7 which caused the engine to ingest sand and dust. One batch of flawed wings was built and caused six accidents, four of them fatal, in October which caused the fighter to be grounded until the cause was determined to be a defect in the wing spar.
Production of the first aircraft fitted with three B-20 cannon began in January 1945 when 74 were delivered. More than 2000 La-7 aircraft were delivered before the war's end, and a total of 5753 aircraft until production ceded in 1946.
Still, the basic concept had more development potential, and as soon as March 1945 work on further improvements for the La-7 started, while in parallel a new type was under development - the La-9, which would enter prototype stage in 1946. An interim type was needed - and this became the La-7bis. It was based on the proven La-7, but already incorporated crucial elements of the future La-9, e. g. its laminar flow wing shape as well as an increased share of light alloy in the construction.
Overall, the La-7bis was tailored to higher operation altitudes than the standard La-7 and was intended to intercept high flying bombers and reconnaissance aircraft like the Ju 388. Therefore the interim type incorporated many small refinements and changes, most notably a bigger wing and fin area, a four-bladed propeller and a pair of new 23 mm Nudelman-Suranov NS-23 cannons which considerably improved firepower and weapon range.
The La-7bis was built in parallel to the standard La-7, but only at Zavod Nr. 99 in Ulan-Ude, where 433 aircraft were built until 1946. Only a few La-7bis reached the front units during WWII in time, and in Soviet service the type was quickly superseded by the La-9. Many aircraft were used in flying schools and training regiments, though, or quickly handed over to allies like China and Korea.
With these operators the La-7bis actively took part in the Korean War and remained in service until the mid-Sixties, when piston fighters were finally replaced by the highly successful MiG-15.
Even though a sub version of the La-7, the type received the separate Air Standardization Coordinating Committee (ASCC) code "Flake" as it was initially mistaken as a new Lavochkin type.

The kit and its assembly:
This whif was a bit of a spontaneous use of a Hobby Boss La-7 kit, part of a kit lot, for which I lacked any good idea. Anyway, I always had an eye on kits for the more streamlined La-9/11s – and then the idea was born to convert the leftover La-7 into something that would come close to the later types.
Biggest surgery concerned the aerodynamic surface; everything was modified:
• Outer wings from a Matchbox P-51D
• Stabilizers from a Heller P-51D
• Fin tip from an Academy Fw 190A
Wings were cut just outboard of the landing gear wells, while the Mustang wings were cut at the 2nd machine gun. Depth fits surprisingly well, only the La-7’s trailing edge had to be adapted, but that only a small effort.
Another mod is the new, for-bladed propeller, scratched from the spares box, and I added some cockpit details and a pilot torso (the canopy was to remain closed). I also removed the original tunnel oil cooler and moved this device into the wings’ leading edges, for a cleaner fuselage.
For the same clean look I left away any ordnance. Actually, when all major parts were in place, I even considered to make a race aircraft (Reno Unlimited?) from the kit, since the Lavochkin looks really fast, but then I reverted to the military use option. A North Korean whif was still missing!
Painting and markings:
When I started building there was no clear idea which country should use the La-7bis – I did not want Soviet markings, though. After some search in the decal stack I found spare North Korean markings, and from there things unfolded naturally.
The odd paint scheme was derived from real Korean La-11 fighters – a kind of tiger stripe pattern, dull green over a grey background with pale blue undersides. I used Humbrol 64 (light Sea Grey) and FS 34096 from Modelmaster, and FS 35414 from Modelmaster, too, for the undersides. Later, these colors were shaded with lighter tones. A yellow fin tip is the only color marking.
North Korean roundels come from a Print Scale MiG-15 decal sheet, the tactical code comes from the scrap box; the fine silver trim around the cowling and the black stripe under the yellow fin tip are decals, too, from generic TL Modellbau sheets.
All interior surfaces were painted with Humbrol 240 (RLM 02, plus a black ink wash), and to add some Soviet style the wheel discs were painted in dark green. The panels on the fuselage flanks were painted in a Metallizer Mix of Steel and Titanium.
The kit received a light black ink wash, plus some soot stains around the cannons and the exhaust shields. Finally, all was sealed with Revell’s acrylic matt varnish.
In the end, the La-7bis looks like less work than it actually was - one can argue if the effort has been worth it? The major transplantations are hard to discern and you have to look at least twice to recognize the differences between a La-7 and the later La-9 and -11. But that was intended – subtle and unspectacular.

The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.
For more information on hackNY's initiatives, please visit www.hackNY.org and follow us on twitter @hackNY
Vodafone has announced plans to provide coding training to 1,000 teenage girls across 26 countries in what is the world’s furthest-reaching in-person global coding programme of its kind. The commitment was announced in advance of @WomenScienceDay. Vodafone is partnering with @CodeFirstGirls to address widening gender gap in STEM.
For many years, women and girls have played an important role in science and technology. Without the work of technology pioneers like Hedy Lamarr and Barbara Liskov, we would not have Wi-Fi and email as we know it. But despite this, women and girls are still grossly under-represented in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) education and careers. Only 35% of girls enter further education in STEM subjects, and many have little encouragement to equip themselves with the skills to thrive in these industries.
Vodafone wants to help change this. In a partnership with social enterprise Code First: Girls, Vodafone’s #CodeLikeAGirl programme will provide five-day, coding workshops for girls, ages 14-18, across its geographical footprint in Europe, India, the Middle East, South Africa and Australasia. In 2017, 500 girls across Vodafone’s 26 markets were taught to code as part of the Vodafone and Code First: Girls partnership. This year, 1,000 teenage girls will benefit from the programme.

Finding the best beauty spa near you may not be an easy task after all. With so many spas functioning in the area, what should you look for in a quality spa? The spa you select should provide the right environment for you at all times. Here are important tips to consider when finding the best beauty spa near you.
Googling it is the easiest way to find a reputable day spa near you. Type in spas and your zip code or town name at the end of it see the results that come up in the search results. Owner of Lisa’s Day Spa in Chula Vista, says, check the websites of the resultant spas and see what kind of skin care treatments they offer and the prices. Does it fit your budget and style? Read client reviews and testimonials to find out whether other people really like the quality of service they offer. If you like what you see and read, give them a call. Is the staff knowledgeable and helpful? Make sure to ask for a tour of the facility before you make an appointment. Especially, check the locker room, and you can get a better idea about the safety, maintenance, and sanitary status of the spa. If you find hair in the wash basin or drain, it is a big no-no. Never select a beauty spa that doesn’t provide the highest sanitary conditions at all times.
Most of the time, treatment rooms might be off limits to clients. But you can always request them to show you the condition of a room. Observe how the other clients are treated to get a better understanding of the experience you are going to have. Once you are really satisfied with all the aforementioned factors, only you should think of making a reservation with the potential beauty spa.
Here are some of the best methods of picking the right spa near you. If you have a personal recommendation from someone you trust, you should always go to such a spa. These people have already experienced the quality of treatment offered by the spa and their recommendation counts a lot. The price of the treatment may depend on the style, quality, and duration of the treatment. Compare prices of different spas near you before you decide on what’s best for you. This way you can easily find a reputable and experienced beauty spa near you.
The skills and experience of the staff are extremely important when picking the right spa near you. In fact, a skilled and experienced therapist can put you at ease from the start. Some people can be more gifted than others. You need to pick the right therapist to perform the treatment.
In conclusion, with numerous beauty spas near you, how are you going to pick the right one? There are many things to look for when selecting the right spa. Your research is quite important when finding the best beauty spa near you. You can make an informed decision under such circumstances.

for 7DoS: the barcodes in supermarkets aren't just used to keep control of stock and prices anymore, I use them to buy my shopping ... so sneaking a photo is pretty easy, as I have it in my hand zapping barcodes along the way.
It's a shame my supermarket hasn't quite mastered the technology regarding stock control, as the empty shelf was were the eggs I wanted, should have been :(

Bletchley Park was the central site for British codebreakers during World War II. It housed the Government Code and Cypher School (GC&CS), which regularly penetrated the secret communications of the Axis Powers – most importantly the German Enigma and Lorenz ciphers. The official historian of World War II British Intelligence has written that the "Ultra" intelligence produced at Bletchley shortened the war by two to four years, and that without it the outcome of the war would have been uncertain.
Located in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England UK, Bletchley Park is open to the public, and receives hundreds of thousands of visitors annually.

Code:Mode, Prague’s free fashion weekend, July 30-August 2 on Střelecký Island in the midst of the Vltava River.
For four years now, organizers have brought together an eclectic group of local designers eager to show off their wares.
This year I tried to bring something more than jewelry. So I came up with simple concept to sew one size wrap and apron sikrts in different colours and patterns. This one is made from two indetical parts, one from black and other from houndstooth fabric. First you tie one from back to front, then other one like apron, from front to back.
This girl, lovely customer who bought this houndstooth pattern skirt ,was eager to pose for me. I was happy for this because i didn't have time to take pictures of my creations and I sold almost all the skirts and bags the very first day.
More pictures of apron skirts, wrap skirts and bags are coming soon!

Jaina Lefevre: Hi Moms!
Debra Charron: "Hiyas sweetie"
Deets Carroll: hey kiddo! Have a good day?
Jaina Lefevre shrugs. 'It's okay." She looks over at Deb. "Today's it, right?"
Debra Charron nods as she removes some civilian clothes from her closet and begins to dress, "Yes Starfish, its supposed to be very soon now"
Jaina Lefevre looks at Deb. "I'm coming to watch, okay? I want to see you kick his ...butt." she looks down at herself. "I should put on pants maybe?"
Debra Charron nods and smiles as she slips on her oldest jacket and reaches for the gunbelt, "The little beach is pretty grimy - pants would be a great idea"
Deets Carroll nods to Jaina. "It's today." She reaches under the bed and pulls out a heavy trunk. "Pants might be warmer." She opens the trunk and begins to dress as well.
Jaina Lefevre goes to find pants and pulls them on, taking her skirt off. "Anything else I can do? Like, borrow a gun?"
Deets Carroll finishes braiding her hair and glares at the child. "You and your slingshot are what started this mess. I don't think giving you a gun is the wisest move.
Debra Charron smiles at Jania and kneels down to give her a hug, "Sweetie, the idea is that just Tres and I have guns - to settle this. This way we don't have to make a war and get lotsa other people fight"
Jaina Lefevre narrows her eyes at Deets. "IT was NOT my fault. Don't blame me. I thought it was, but it wasn't. He was told to get me when Assbrink saw me on the camera. He /told/ me that."
Jaina Lefevre turns and wraps her arms around Deb and whispers. "Don't you let him hurt you, Mommy. He's a pansy."
Deets Carroll gazes into her trunk trying to choose between a sniper rifle or the combat shotgun, and finally chooses the shotgun.
Debra Charron hugs Jania and struggles with how much reality she needs to make the child aware of, ultimately deciding that the event itself will be eye-opening enough. "Starfish, I love you. Tres has needed taking-down for a long time, so if this hadn't happened it'd just be over something else"
Debra Charron flips open her cell and makes a quick call
Jaina Lefevre kisses her cheeks and hugs her tight. "Well, tell Mom that because it's NOT my FAULT!"
Deets Carroll slips on her shades and straightens, shrugging to get the heavy vest to sit comfortably. She sighs, and crouches to the child's level. "I know it's not your fault, Jaina. I shouldn't have said that. We're all just a little on edge." She offers an armored hug.
Jaina Lefevre goes to hug Deets. "Don't say those thiings. That's not nice. We gotta be there for Moms so she can win."
Deets Carroll smiles, and hugs the child close. "You can cheer for her. Get your friends, too." She releases the girl and stands.
Debra Charron extracts her USP from its holster and carefully examines it, checking its function, sights and heft. She ejects the magazine and inserts a fresh one, locking it in place before returning the weapon to its holster
Debra Charron looks at the clock over the bed, "Well - we'd better get down there. I'd hate to be late for my own duel." Deb hugs Jania again and whispers, "I love you Starfish" before releasing her and turning to Deets. Deb smiles and gives her an awkward hug over her tactical vest, "I love you too Deets"
Jaina Lefevre slips a little ribbon dolly into Deb's pocket. Hair ribbons and knots. "IT's a good luck charm. Everyone hasta have those."
Deets Carroll smiles and returns Deb's hug. "Just kick his ass."
Jaina Lefevre is ready to go, and holds Deb's hand a moment or two before letting her go.
Deets Carroll checks the time. "I should get down and check the place out. I'll see you soon."
