second shot in a series of three, for my photography study .. this was the sketch I made when I got the idea for this photo ..
assignment: show three different parts of your personality in three different lighting settings. this scene was lightened with light bulbs (tungsten) ..
I like it in black & white but I need to print it in colour for school ..
This is the first shot of the series ..
This is the third ..
This diagram shows the expected firing rate at different speeds and cut-offs for a Class 7 loco. This is from a LMR 1949 booklet, so I expect the 7P is a BR 8P.
This booklet "Controlled Firing" was one of three given to me by Dave Massey, who was trying to school my amature firing in the "little and often" method. Other crews tought me the uneconomic easy ways!
Diefenbunker: Canada's Cold War Museum
MESSAGE CONTROL CENTRE
Coded messages would have flooded into the Bunker during a nuclear attack. Throughout CFS Corp's operational years during the Cold War, the Message Control Centre (MCC) had to sort them quickly and accurately.
Staff at the MCC logged, processed, duplicated, and distributed all incoming and messages. They also had to ensure outgoing messages were authenticated and formatted before transmission. Even small errors could be catastrophic in a crisis.
Five staff members per shift handled outside messages, as well as the internal message system within the Bunker.
Notice the pass-through slot in the wall-cryptographers in the next room were ready to decode incoming messages and encode those being sent out.
Fewer light-up buttons and switches than Apollo Mission Control, and more Dells and HPs. :P
I like how there's both a map of the ISS in the center and live-generated 3D models for visualization. The screen of text on the right is a log of commands sent to the ISS.
Above that are the all-important timers for next LOS (Loss of Signal) and AOS (Acquisition of Signal). As the ISS flies around the world, it sometimes goes through dead zones where Mission Control loses contact. Whenever LOS happens, everyone in Mission Control runs to the bathroom, basically. :D (Or gets a snack, or whatever.) Then they hurry back before AOS.
These cables went from the operators cabin to the machinery room directly below to control the throttles, brakes, and rotational direction of the steam engines connected to the cable drums. Everything about the McMyler is mechanical. No electrical signalling here!
More photos here in the McMyler set.
Totally out of control when I reached Ubud, so many things to see and to buy. My husband could hardly locate me when I am inside this market. By the time he saw me, I was more than ready to let him my carry my "harvest".
I was totally exhausted ....
RUPTURE NO 1: blowtorching the bitten peach
Heather Phillipson
(23 March 2021 – 23 January 2022)
Tate Britain Commission in the Duveen Gallery
Heather Phillipson engulfs Tate Britain’s grand central galleries with colour, sound and motion
In her words, she is proposing the spaces as a sequence of ‘charged ecosystems, maladaptive seasons and unearthed lifeforms’.
She reimagines the galleries as alive, and happening in a parallel time-zone. Mutant creatures, built from technological remains, populate the space.
Described by Phillipson as a ‘pre-post-historic environment’, the work and its title evoke an abundance of sensations and associations that resist coherence. The artist says she is attempting to ‘cultivate strangeness, and its potential to generate ecstatic experience’.
Phillipson’s work often involves collisions of wildly different imagery, materials and media.
Through multiple, unexpected combinations, she conjures absurd and complex systems. Here, salvaged machines, colossal papier-mâché sculptures and hand-painted scenes are layered with digital video and sound. Mountains of salt, bisected aircraft fuel tanks, mobile gas canisters, rotating anchors and shapeshifting roof vents are doused with tinted light. Everything is remixed and redeployed.
Phillipson’s multimedia projects include video, sculpture, installation, music, poetry and digital media. She describes her works as ‘quantum thought experiments’. They often carry an underlying sense of threat – a suggestion that, in the artist’s words, ‘received ideas, images and the systems that underpin them may be on the verge of collapse’.

Controlled fires are set in Spring and Autumn to reduce the leaf litter and fire load in our forests. This helps to reduce fierce wildfires in summertime during the hot time of the year.
Simple signal control card to detect the polarity of 12v momentary pulses used for two-wire Kato N gauge points (turnouts), in order to set station throat LED signals via 4 bistable latching relays (which hold their state even when power is off). The onboard LEDs show the current state of each relay for diagnostics. DIL connector pins are soldered in pairs for increased resilience.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_on_Uniform_Traffic_Control_D...
The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) is a document issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) to specify the standards by which traffic signs, road surface markings, and signals are designed, installed, and used. These specifications include the shapes, colors, and fonts used in road markings and signs. In the United States, all traffic control devices must generally conform to these standards. The manual is used by state and local agencies as well as private construction firms to ensure that the traffic control devices they use conform to the national standard. While some state agencies have developed their own sets of standards, including their own MUTCDs, these must substantially conform to the federal MUTCD.

FREE SUNDAY LECTURES AT JAY
Commemorating the Bicentennial of the War of 1812
Come Learn about America’s Founding
… at a Founder’s Home
January 22nd at 4:00 pm – Reimagining the War of 1812 - “Redcoats’ Revenge” with Col. David Fitz-Enz
What if, on September 11, 1814, the United States had lost the close-run battle that Winston Churchill called the “most decisive” of the War of 1812? With a victory at Plattsburgh, would the British have eventually been able to regain control of their former colonies? Redcoats’ Revenge brings the most successful field commander in history, the Duke of Wellington, to North America in 1814 and presents a montage of the personalities and battles, real and quite possible, of the War of 1812. With a clever and compelling premise, this exciting alternate history will enthrall readers and reveal just how close the US was to becoming a British colony once again.
Col. Fitz Enz was a regular army officer for 30 years. Among his combat decorations is the Soldiers Medal, the army’s highest award for life saving at extreme risk. His unit operated the Moscow Hot Line for 3 presidents. His literary awards include The Distinguished Book Prize from the Army Historical Foundation and the Military Order of Saint Louis from The Knights Templar for contributions to military literature.
February 19th at 4:00 pm - The War of 1812 in American Caricature with Dr. Allison Stagg
This lecture will consider key events from the War of 1812 by exploring satirical visual imagery. Political cartoons were printed with immediacy to capitalize on sensational events and to mock prominent politicians and figures, while extolling pride in the American cause. Caricatures of this period although printed in haste, show how people in America responded to the War of 1812. Rarely are such prints considered in American history dialogue, yet such images are vital documents that provide viewers with the opinions of the every-day citizen in the early 1800s. In focusing on caricatures produced during this period, this lecture considers the “peoples story” of the War of 1812 through a series of visually humorous images.
Allison Stagg received a Ph.D. in Art History from University College London. Her work has been supported by numerous grants, including awards from the New-York Historical Society, New York Public Library, and the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. Dr. Stagg is a recipient of the Jane and Morgan Whitney fellowship at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 2011-12 to edit her Ph.D. dissertation, “The Art of Wit: Political Caricature in the United States 1780-1830” for publication.
All programs above are free and take place at the 1907 Van Norden Carriage House. Seating is limited so reservations are required.
Landscape lovers travelled to the old silver mining town of Aspen, Colorado this past June 23rd to join The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF) for an unparalled series of private garden visits curated by
TCLF Co-Chair Kurt Culbertson, President of Design Workshop. The 2012 Aspen Garden Excursion, featured no less than 6 award-winning residential designs, all incorporating sustainable features ranging from water conservation to native plant choices responsive to the climate and ecology of the area. The sites were all breathtaking, and participants took in dramatic views from a preserve overlook to a streamside estate, from a contemporary mountain garden to a cascade garden. As one of the highlights, Kurt arranged for Jeff Berkus, architect of The Aspen Institute’s Doerr-Hosier Center, to lead a tour through the grounds which include Herbert Bayer’s striking 1955 Marble Garden and environmental artist Andy Goldsworthy’s red sandstone installation “Stone River.” Our group travelled from McLain Flats to Red Mountain and saw a great breadth of topography and creative treatments while also learning about the agricultural history and rich heritage of Aspen and its environs. The day was a great success.

Tear outs from my notebook I kept last spring. Dedicated to my food journal and the emotions I felt everyday. I tracked myself, my every move and every meal. Counted, calculated, added, burned, totaled. It's horrible. It's never good enough. My view of good and bad was totally thrown off. 750 calories suddenly became success and 1200 was too much. It was so distorted. I needed to see the number of burned calories on the treadmill everyday and make it higher than calories consumed. Unable to maintain this goal, I felt like a failure everyday. Why did I do this to myself. I had control over my feelings and yet I set impossible expectations for myself to meet. Set myself up for failure. Then when I can't do it, I am just reaffirming what I already think of myself.
