Currently open challenges in Our Daily Challenge include "DOMESTIC BLISS" and "A BUILDING INTERIOR". This corner of my kitchen is comfortable, functional, and beautiful in my eyes. So, I think it is appropriate to both challenges.
As requested. All of my current models. I have donated 2 Stueys, 1 Lee, and 1 Panzer 3 to our local museum and the Pacific Museum back home in Texas. :D I have taken apart a few models that Austin rarely played with. The SdKfz 234-4, the captured C15 transport truck, the Renault UEs, the A13 Cruiser, the Achilles, the Locust (still built but without turret), the Type 97 Chi-Ha, the M3 White Scout Car (being re-designed), the WC52 and WC56 all were taken apart for "the good of our collection." :D They all contributed to our modern military models.
LEGO modeling has become a big hobby for my son and I. It has helped me through some rough times recently. Helps get my mind off other things. I have met a lot of nice people here on FLickr and other places. Thanks to everyone who helped Austin and I along the way. :D If I left anyone out, sorry.

To all my Flickr friends and contacts:
I am sorry I have not been responding to your comments.
I am currently undergoing medical treatment for a serious condition and my Flickr time has been limited.
I will continue to post ( I have a large library) and comment when I am able.
The foothills of Snowdonia form the backdrop to today's shot of my current tour coach, 22nd September, 2018.
The idea to go to Tireberka was born quite by accident with my wife. She came home from work in the evening and said: "In a month we will go to the Arctic to Tireberka, near Murmansk, to watch whales." I, to my shame, forgot that it was in this village that Andrei Zvyagintsev filmed his famous Leviothan. And our guide reminded us of this already on the spot. As he said, a lot has changed in the village since filming. It quickly turned into a very popular tourist destination. And of course, exactly half of the popularity is a plus and the second half, you know, a minus.
Zvyagintsev himself says about the current state of the village: "
It seems to me that no one can stop this process of transformation. It is clear that some fashionable places appear there, but if this is not just a tool for pumping and making money, then there is nothing wrong with that, ”the filmmaker reassured. - I remember, earlier, when passing by Lodeynoye, one could observe a gigantic landfill not far from the sea. But thanks to all the events associated with the film, this place was eventually cleared of garbage. So there are definitely positives to the hype."
But it seems to me that 2-3 years will pass and Tireberka may lose its current charm. Of course, more hotels and restaurants will appear, but they will be located on the site of those charming "ruins" from which it is now impossible to take your eyes off. Hurry to see!
PS I thought for a long time how to name the report and what photos to include in it. I decided to call it quite simply "Tireberka" and include in the report the minimum number of natural beauties and the maximum number of photographs of the village itself.
All photos are taken in the format of my beloved Hasselblad Xpan camera.
Honestly my doll head rack is finally reduced to the doll head experiments and parts I deemed too good to just chuck out since the rest of my heads finally got the bodies that suit them lol.
Also a lot of these heads already got replacements by better condition dolls so I'm really fighting myself on letting them go...

This is my recent setup optimized for doing my research. I mainly use OS X, but I also run Windows for embedded system programming and Linux for running Simics VM. All of them are virtualized within VMWare Fusion.
In the photo, there are four screens but are actually only two Macs on the 72-inch wide desk. I found this setting to be useful because it's portable and the load can be balanced between the two. There are several other computers in my room for server and simulation purposes.
All the computers are synchronized using Unison, and controlled by a single set of keyboard and mouse using Synergy. I modified the source code of Synergy so that it supports Magic Mouse perfectly (the original version uses some deprecated APIs which doesn't support pixel-based scrolling).
Thanks to the GoodReader application on iPad, I can read all the books and papers even when I'm on the go. I need to hide the annoying iPad's white USB cable, but the iPad's power issue makes the problem a bit difficult to solve.

It is currently fairly uncommon for one of the six ex Hull E400MMCs at Lincoln depot to be outstationed at Newark, with Lincoln's 30-something strong fleet of classic body Enviro 400s generally filling the decker workings. SN66VXM (10744) has though been at Newark for the past few days and is seen here heading through Upton with the 08:45 29 from Mansfield to its temporary home. This was one of three of the E400MMCs to move from Hull last summer, following the other three which transferred towards the end of 2023.
Orchid
The Orchidaceae are a diverse and widespread family of flowering plants, with blooms that are often colourful and fragrant, commonly known as the orchid family.
Along with the Asteraceae, they are one of the two largest families of flowering plants. The Orchidaceae have about 28,000 currently accepted species, distributed in about 763 genera.[2][3] The determination of which family is larger is still under debate, because verified data on the members of such enormous families are continually in flux. Regardless, the number of orchid species is nearly equal to the number of bony fishes, more than twice the number of bird species, and about four times the number of mammal species.
The family encompasses about 6–11% of all seed plants.[4] The largest genera are Bulbophyllum (2,000 species), Epidendrum (1,500 species), Dendrobium (1,400 species) and Pleurothallis (1,000 species). It also includes Vanilla (the genus of the vanilla plant), the type genus Orchis, and many commonly cultivated plants such as Phalaenopsis and Cattleya. Moreover, since the introduction of tropical species into cultivation in the 19th century, horticulturists have produced more than 100,000 hybrids and cultivars.
CN's Massena Spur currently extends from MP 84 in Brossard, Qc on Montreal's South shore (where it joins the Rouses Point Sub) to MP 77.3. It currently terminates just short of CP's Adirondack sub (it used to cross it near CP's Delson station), but this line was once the Massena sub and extended all the way to Massena, NY. There are some industrial clients remaining on the line, and yesterday CN 527 (which normally is a transfer from Southwark Yard to Taschereau yard in the Montreal area) was called to head down the Massena spur to serve some clients on this rarely photographed line. Here CN 7028 is doing some switching on the spur towards Brasseur Transport.
There are pretty much the only things I have built up right now. I'm reluctant to break up the M200 until I know exactly what I want to build next. I really want to attempt another sniper rifle, preferably a Remington 700, but light bley isn't the ideal colour.
Also, the M4 has undergone yet more changes! The most noticeable are the long ejection port and a new stock. I want to reduce the height of the hand guard area slightly but I can't bring myself to take it apart again just yet.
On the right-hand side you can see a green plate with some tan pieces on it; this is a MOC that I started late last year of a local building. Having never built a building based on a real-life building, progress is slow but I am determined to complete it some time this year, no matter the cost!
Well that's about it! Just lately I've been busy with college work and whatnot so I haven't really been in the building mood, but I'm sure I'll be back soon!
No group invites/awards wanted.
A non-365 selfportrait taken yesterday. I like taking reading-related SP's and tried a different angle yesterday.
I'm reading "Middlesex" by Jeffrey Eugenides now.
Well, just wanted to upload that one. I'm off to Zeeland now! Until tomorrow or tuesdayevening!
Edit to add: NO MORE GROUP INVITES OR GROUP IMAGES IN MY COMMENTS
I had the great chance to board an helicopter in Reykjavik to fly over the current eruption in the wild highlands of Iceland. We left the capital for a 5 hour trip over the glaciers to reach the live eruption at Holuhraun, our brand new volcano here in Iceland.
The eruption has started on the 31th of august this year by a volcanic fissure related to the volcano Barðarbunga. The lave field is now something like 60 km2.
Despite that the main crater is high enough for not having lava fountains anymore, the eruption is still ongoing and the scenery is fantastic!
A brand new part of Iceland is growing there and it shows no signs of decreasing activity...
The whole set of photographs is there on my website: Reykjavik to Holuhraun: Flying over the volcano

A beloved New England treasure and long-time staple Papa Gino's closed in 2021, after decades of loyal service at the Lincoln Mall in Lincoln, Rhode Island.
The Caldor Rainbow did an extensive preservation of the oldest-retaining tenant and time-capsule restaurant from the Boston, Mass.-based chain from better times in 2020.
Now known as Lincoln Commons, most shops inside the remaining mall portion have since vacated, except for CW Lanes & Games and Theaters and Lincoln Tech.
Papa Gino's, currently operates 79 locations, mostly in Massachusetts but no longer in Boston proper with only 5 remaining in neighboring Rhode Island.
All belong to the same faction. The camo on the middle right is a Spetsnaz camo, with my own added twist. It will also go on the right guy. Not sure if I will put it on the legs. The left guys are more desert prepared, so I'm not sure if I should camo them. Knee pads by me.

Not the greatest photograph ever taken but I like the colour combination.

MV St Clare currently sails on the Portsmouth to Fishbourne route operated by Wightlink. She was built in Gdańsk in 2001. From her introduction in 2001 until January 2004, St Clare was the longest ship regularly crossing between the Isle of Wight and the British mainland, but was overtaken by Red Funnel's Red Osprey following that vessel's stretching. St Clare can carry 878 passengers and 186 cars across three vehicle decks. All other vessels operating on the Portsmouth to Fishbourne route carry 771 passengers and 142 cars.
Her service speed is 13 knots, measuring 5,359 gt, with a length of 86 metres, beam of 18 metres and loaded draught of 2.6 metres. The ship has a double-end design, where the ship can travel in both directions, so that when it arrives, the vehicles are always facing the correct direction for disembarkation so she does not have to turn around before docking. Her four 5-cylinder Wartsila diesel engines have a very distinctive exhaust sound, unfortunatley this does plague the ship with excessive vibration.

The current Reichstag dome is a glass dome, constructed on top of the rebuilt Reichstag building in Berlin. It was designed by architect Norman Foster and built to symbolize the reunification of Germany. The distinctive appearance of the dome has made it a prominent landmark in Berlin.
The Reichstag dome is a large glass dome with a 360 degree view of the surrounding Berlin cityscape. The debating chamber of the Bundestag, the German parliament, can be seen down below. A mirrored cone in the center of the dome directs sunlight into the building, and so that visitors can see the working of the chamber. [Wikipedia]
