Photographs from my trip to Chernobyl Nuclear power plant and the near by city of Pripyat. August 2010. The Chernobyl disaster occurred on 26 April 1986. It is considered the worst nuclear power plant accident in history, and is one of only two classified as a level 7 event on the International Nuclear Event Scale. The near by city of Pripyat was abandoned in the days following the Chernobyl disaster.

The East Broad Top Railroad is considered one of the most complete and original industrial and railroad sites in the United States. Where other historic railroads were typically scrapped or pieced out to other railroad operations, the EBT remained intact with the loving care of the Kovalcick family, who purchased the railroad as it was shutting down in the 1950's. It was assumed the railroad would be scrapped, as the Kovalcick company was a scrapping business. But instead, they turned the railroad into a tourist operation that ran from the late 1950's all the way through to 2011.

 

In 2011, it went into a bit of "hibernation mode" as much work was needed, and it was no longer profitable. Thankfully, on Valentine's Day 2020, they announced that the railroad had been purchased by a non-profit foundation with the full intention of returning the railroad to operational status.

 

I can't be happier with this news as I credit the East Broad Top Railroad as being my first ever live railroads to visit as a kid back in 1993. My parents took me and I must say, I've been hooked ever since with railroading, and with the EBT. I hope they find their way, with precision and determination, to get back up on their feet. I hope to contribute time and help where I can to aid in those efforts.

I recently tore down some old pallets and reused the wood to build storage crates. This was was built to hold a 15" scroll saw.

V.F.W Post 76, “The Oldest Post in Texas”

The house was completed in 1904 and sits on the banks of the San Antonio River

Corinthian columns support the Victorian-Style home that features a veranda, basement and attic, and at one time had 17 rooms, 5 fireplaces & two kitchens. There are stained glass windows on the main floor & front stair landing, also on the floor at the entrance is original as is all the wood trim, window trim & window. The second floor has a unique feature in the ladies bathroom. There’s a porcelain pedestal sink, cedar chest & porcelain floors.

V.F.W. Post 76 is not only unique by the house, but also by our charter, which was issued June 15, 1917. The organizers of V.F.W. Post 76 were veterans of the Spanish American War.

Although there are no surviving WWI veterans we can proudly say that we have veterans of WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Afghanistan & Iraq.

As part of ongoing Highway 1 upgrades on the North Shore, the existing Fern Street Overpass is being demolished. For detour information, visit the Lynn Creek project page: www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/transportation/transportation-...

New Uploaded:-Complete ab workout, by: Abtekk Gym ___ Intense Abs Workout Routine

Complete ab workout - Lower ab workouts - abtekk.com/abtekk-give-away - Win a FREE Ab Workout set worth a whopping £100. Feeling good about yourself in the area of fitness is important for your self-esteem and it can be something that improves your mental attitude toward life in general. Don't settle for using what you already know about fitness when you can learn something new to get yourself to a whole new level. Take a look at these useful tips. For more Info on Ab Workout see here: www.youtube.com/playlist?playnext=1&list=PLvR-rVWiRMP... While exercising, find something that will take your mind off of the physical activity you're doing. The reason people listen to music or watch television while working out is that it tricks your brain into thinking the time has flown by. Find a playlist you enjoy, or bring a book with you while on the treadmill. Finding a fitness buddy can motivate you to keep working out. By finding someone to work out with, you can have someone to talk to, hang out with, and hold yourself accountable to. You are less likely to skip out on a workout if you are supposed to meet someone there. When starting a new exercise regime, have a plan! Make a list of your goals in an exercise journal. Choose a workout that you enjoy, and begin by performing a low intensity version of this. With each week, increase the intensity and add an extra five minutes to your workout. Remember to make a note of your progress in your exercise journal, as this will only encourage you to stick with the plan. Decrease your time in the gym by not taking as long to rest between sets of weightlifting. When you first begin lifting weights your muscles are still strong enough to go right through. Think intuitively and take breaks when you need them, but you can cut down a good 10-20% off your gym time by cutting down on those early breaks, which would allow you to move on to something else that much quicker. Complete ab workout Running may possibly be the best way to lose weight. Running uses a lot of the muscles in your body as well as your heart. Your body needs energy to keep on running and will take energy from the fat stored in your body to keep on running. Stretches should be performed before you begin your exercise and afterwards to cool the muscle from intense performance. When stretching, it is best to hold a position for 15 to 30 seconds and try not to bounce during the hold. Bouncing will force the muscle to hit a tendon or body part unnecessarily and may cause injury. Varying your exercise routine can help keep you engaged and give you better results. It's easy to become bored when you're doing the same workout every single day, and that means you won't see the results you want. Mix up your exercises and do something a little different each day to keep yourself focused. For many, it's challenging to stick a diet if they're not seeing regular results. Instead of stepping on the scales, keep some tight-fitting clothes around. By trying on the same snug outfit occasionally, you will be able to tell how well you are doing. Fix your posture. Poor posture puts a strain on your spinal column, affects your skeletal health, makes you feel tired and affects your body movement. To have good posture, stand with your shoulders back and down, chin parallel to the floor, and knees that aren't locked. You'll feel more alert and look slimmer as well if you improve your posture. Many people believe that their abdominal muscles should be worked every day. This is not ideal for these muscles. Abs, like other muscle groups, require periodic rest and recovery time. You should attempt to let your abs rest about 48 to 72 hours after you work them out. You should make sure to put your tongue near the roof of your mouth when doing any kind of abdominal work out such as crunches. This helps to protect your neck and will work to align your spine and back so that you do not put strain on these areas. When you are trying to work on your handling skills for basketball, try using some kind of work glove of leather glove. While you have them on, it will be harder to handle the ball and dribble. When you take them off your fingertips will become more sensitive and you will have better control. Complete ab workout Choose your exercises and lifting programs carefully, if you are aiming at weight-loss as your ultimate goal. Certain weight-training regimens are designed to add muscle bulk to your frame or increase power-lifting and short-twitch muscles. These exercises may actually increase your weight. To lose unwanted fat and pounds, choose exercises that build lean muscle and tone your body. Perform higher numbers of repetitions at lower weight in order to build this kind of muscle.

Details

Pattern: TARDIS Socks by Keladry Bonnett (Ravelry link for the pattern - you must be logged in to view it).

Yarn: Knit Picks Palette in Delta, Black, and White.

Needles: US1.5 (2.50mm) DPNs for the cuff, texture of the doors, and foot. US2 (2.75mm) for the colorwork and heel flap.

 

Unintentional modification: I somehow managed to omit the row of purl stitches between the “POLICE BOX” colorwork and the windows. I really didn’t feel like redoing all that work just to include it, so the socks will have to do without it. Oh, well! It doesn’t look bad without it, in my opinion.

 

Intentional modifications:

* I did a regular 2x2 ribbing as opposed to the twisted rib. I didn’t like how my twisted rib was coming out.

* The colorwork is done on size US2 (2.75mm) needles just to make sure it wouldn’t be too tight. I tend to knit a little tight, so I needed a little extra wiggle room with the larger needles.

 

I love how they turned out!

Construction of the Bomb Store on Thetford Heath, known as RAF Barnham, began in 1953 or 1954 and was complete by 1955. It was built specifically to store and maintain atomic weapons, and this is directly reflected in its layout. The principal storage buildings are divided into two main groups, large stores designed to hold the bomb casings and high explosive components and smaller stores to hold fissile cores. By the early 1960's this specialised facility was obsolete, as free-fall nuclear bombs were superseded (as the principal British nuclear deterrent) by the stand-off missile ''Blue Steel'', and the storage and maintenance of nuclear weapons was moved to the V-Bomber airfields. The last nuclear weapons were probably removed from the site by April 1963.

 

The site was sold to its present owner in 1965, and since that date it has been used as a light industrial estate. The plan form of the Bomb Store remains virtually unmodified, the majority of the buildings survive intact, generally with little alteration; the boundary fences and watch towers also remain. RAF Barnham was one of two such sites built in England, the other is at RAF Faldingworth in Lincolnshire which has the same types of building and is almost identical in overall plan form.

 

Modern military occupation on Thetford Heath began in the early years of the Second World War. By 1942 the Air Ministry had taken control of the eastern part of Thetford Heath, bounded by Elveden Road to the south, Bury Road to the east and a forest boundary known as the Boundary Belt to the north. The western boundary was delimited by an almost north to south fence to the west of Aughton Spinney, which comprised two separate pieces of woodland, a nearly north to south strip called Aughton Spinney Belt with a detached oval portion to the north, the whole giving the appearance of an inverted exclamation mark. The bottom south-east corner of the area was cut by the (now dismantled) Bury St Edmunds to Thetford railway line.

 

The requisitioned area on the heath was part of Forward Filling Depot No.1 Barnham Heath (TL 862 803) - its function was to store and fill bombs with mustard gas. The filling depot lay at the eastern end of Thetford Heath and was enclosed by a fence with pillboxes at its corners. Most of the depot was destroyed when the present RAF camp was built in the late 1950’s. One traversed high explosive magazine area and some railway cuttings survived into the 1970's, and were mapped by the Ordnance Survey as earthworks. To the west and north of the fenced filling depot an area of land, in a roughly 'L' shaped configuration, was used for open storage. The area was divided by unmade tracks, and the munitions were stored under temporary linear shelters. Associated with this depot was another gas storage and filling depot 1.2 miles to the south, at Triangle Plantation (TL 853 778). The gas depots were probably maintained until the 1950's, when Britain disposed of her remaining stockpiles of mustard gas.

 

In the early 1950's the programme to deploy an independent British nuclear deterrent was extremely complex, and involved co-ordinating many diverse and innovative technological programmes. These included developing atomic weapon technology from one-off experimental units to a production run which could be issued to the RAF. In parallel with this work went the development of jet bombers capable of carrying these bombs. On the ground new airfield facilities were needed to handle new aircraft types and specialised storage units were established to maintain the new weapons. It was against this background that the decision was taken to build two specialist storage and maintenance depots for atomic weapons, one at Barnham in Suffolk and the other at Faldingworth in Lincolnshire.

 

Code letters on the site plans for RAF Barnham indicate that planning for the site began in 1952, although the majority of the drawings were prepared in 1953. The site was purchased by the Air Ministry on 28th September 1954, which suggests part of the heath had been derequisitioned since the war. An air photograph indicates that building work on the site was substantially complete by August 1955. Nonetheless, minor building work to provide accommodation for the police dog section probably continued until early 1956.

 

The station became operational on 1st September 1956, commanded by Wing Commander G Steele: But the British nuclear deterrent was probably not fully operational until the end of 1956, or early 1957. Administratively RAF Barnham was commanded by No.40 Group, and formed part of No.94 MU (Maintenance Unit) with its headquarters at RAF Honington. in the late 1950’s, it was intended that this group would supply the airfields at RAF Honington, RAF Marham and RAF Watton.

 

To understand the form of RAF Barnham it is necessary briefly to describe the types of weapons it was designed to store. The first nuclear weapon issued to the RAF, and therefore stored at RAF Barnham, was code-named ''Blue Danube''. This was a relatively large weapon, 24 ft in length, 5 ft in diameter, and weighing 10,000 Ibs. It had the appearance of a standard free-fall high explosive bomb, with a pointed nose and rear stabilising fins. Also in common with conventional bombs it appeared that the tail unit was a detachable section. It was lifted by means of a lifting beam attached to lugs on top of the central section of the bomb, which were also used to secure it in the bombay of an aircraft.

 

Nuclear weapons are technologically complex products, which require specialised storage and continuous maintenance to remain serviceable. ''Blue Danube'' appears to describe a series of closely related weapons, which were continuously modified. The first system worked on the implosion system, using a fissile core of plutonium 239 or uranium 235, where the sub-critical masses were propelled together in a device resembling a gun barrel. In a later modification, probably used in the bombs issued to the RAF, the sub-critical plutonium fissile core was machined to form a hollow sphere at the centre of which was a neutron source. The core was surrounded by a carefully machined sphere of high explosives. When initiated this would produce a spherical pressure wave on the sub-critical core imploding it to form a critical mass.

 

The ''Blue Danube'' bomb may therefore be seen to comprise two principal elements, the precisely shaped pieces of radioactive plutonium and the finely machined high explosive lenses wrapped around the core. In storage the two elements were kept apart. This was partly to avoid the obvious dangers of storing assembled nuclear weapons, but was also done to maintain the effectiveness of the bomb. For, if stored in an assembled form, the highly radioactive plutonium core emitted neutrons and gamma rays which could damage the mechanical and electronic components within the bombs. The early atomic bombs required an initiator made of polonium and (probably) Iithium. Polonium is a highly unstable element, with a half-life of only 138 days.

 

Any cores containing this material would therefore need to be reassembled every few months. The high explosive was a specialised composition which required careful manufacturing and machining to create the lenses around the radioactive core. This too needed to be kept in a carefully monitored environment. During the operational life of RAF Barnham, second and third generation British nuclear weapons were introduced, ''Red Beard'', and ''Yellow Sun'' Mk. I and II. It is, however, uncertain whether or not these were stored at RAF Barnham. It is also unclear if any American nuclear weapons supplied for use by RAF Valiant's at RAF Marham were held at RAF Barnham. The Operational Record Book of No.40 Group does not give any details of the weapons stored at RAF Barnham.

 

Storage of nuclear weapons at RAF Barnham probably ceased in spring 1963. The last date that the lightning conductors were tested on the fissile store buildings was in April 1963 and the security status of the site was withdrawn in July of that year. RAF personnel, nevertheless, remained at the station until November. The closure of the station is probably directly linked to the operational deployment of the stand-off missile ''Blue Steel'' from late 1962, which replaced free fall nuclear bombs - the type stored at RAF Barnham. The site was retained by the RAF until late 1965 when it was offered for sale. Since then the buildings have been put to a variety of light industrial uses.

118 Studs long. It's finally done. More pictures to come.

Well I finally finished the shower! I started this project on February 27th and finished it yesterday April 10th, now you can see why I'd make no money doing renos I'm way too slow :-) No, it's just that other stuff came up in the midst of doing the tiling and so it got put on hold a number of times. So I learned lots doing this shower and I'd say the physical work side of it was at the bottom of the list.

 

Here's what I learned:

 

Sometimes a good cry is necessary when I feel overwhelmed…as long as I don't stay there but eventually dry my tears and tackle the job one step at a time.

 

"Can you please help me," doesn't mean I'm incapable but that I just need HELP. And for me it's actually a good thing seeing as it's so hard for me to ask for help but I had to do it a number of times…swallow that pride and ask!

 

I can do things I didn't think I could do.

 

When it takes about six weeks to complete a shower reno I'd say lots of patience has been learned.

 

Having to do a tile cut umpteen times because I kept getting it wrong was another way I learned patience. I guess you could say the bonus was I got some exercise going up and down that stairs to go outside and cut the tile. May as well look at the bright side…though I don't think I was thinking about exercise more like if I have to go up and down this stairs one more time…..better learn some more patience.

 

And then gluing that same tile to the ceiling only to have it fall off and shatter when I took the brace off is the ultimate in learning patience…back to the drawing board with that cut, though by this time it only required a couple cuts to get it right…I guess I'd learned enough patience and this was just a test to see if I'd really learned any.

 

I can be stubborn and hard to work with when things aren't going right, I can be hard to teach…but I have a patient husband who walks me through it.

 

I can be unkind when things aren't working out and had to apologize a number of times…character development…I'm not there yet ;-)

 

While getting started and laying those first rows of tiles I wasn't the happiest camper to be around but by the last three rows I was singin in that shower!

 

Standing and looking at the complete project puts a smile on my face and makes me proud in a good way. For me to have completed something from start to finish is a good thing and it's rewarding looking at the finished product. I'm a starter but not always a finisher :-)

 

I can tile a shower!

 

As far as the character development side of this project because I am a work in progress some verses that I love are:

 

Philippians 1: 6 "…being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."

 

Philippians 4: 13 "I can do everything through him who gives me strength."

 

Everyday these verses are worked out in my life through whatever comes my way.

            

My little vamp girl is now complete. I gave her a set of epoxy teeth that will last a lot longer than clay ;)

I've been here for slightly under 3 months now and it's taken me a while to work out the kinks of moving to such a smaller space, but once I put on my thinking cap (and got a slightly smaller desk) it all came together! Yay!

 

Still to do:

- deal with empty walls above things

- keep bonsai plant alive

- tackle all of the things I just shoved into my bedroom so I could call the living room done!

- make it feel less IKEA (though it's much less IKEA than my old apt was!)
