A camera is a device that records images that can be stored directly, transmitted to another location, or both. These images may be still photographs or moving images such as videos or movies. The term camera comes from the word camera obscura (Latin for "dark chamber"), an early mechanism for projecting images. The modern camera evolved from the camera obscura.
Cameras may work with the light of the visible spectrum or with other portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. A camera generally consists of an enclosed hollow with an opening (aperture) at one end for light to enter, and a recording or viewing surface for capturing the light at the other end. A majority of cameras have a lens positioned in front of the camera's opening to gather the incoming light and focus all or part of the image on the recording surface. The diameter of the aperture is often controlled by a diaphragm mechanism, but some cameras have a fixed-size aperture. Most cameras use an electronic image sensor to store photographs on flash memory. Other cameras, particularly the majority of cameras from the 20th century, use photographic film.
A typical still camera takes one photo each time the user presses the shutter button (except in continuous-fire mode). A typical movie camera continuously takes 24 film frames per second as long as the user holds down the shutter button, or until the shutter button is pressed a second time.
Slave Trap at Greenwood Great House.
St. James, Jamaica.
April 17, 2016.
Seeing this enormous device, I jokingly said, "I didn't know they had Polar Bears in Jamaica." Little did I imagine that this hideous thing wasn't for capturing wild animals. It was designed to catch runaway slaves in the 1700s. @@
Slavery was abolished in Jamaica way back in 1835. Greenwood House is now owned by a native Jamaican (who very much resembles Harry Belafonte, btw). We had a great visit with him and his wife. He said he wasn't sure the man-trap was ever actually deployed or not. His suspicion was the trap was used to discourage slaves from fleeing.

Greenwood House has a large collection of slavery-related items and posters. I'd highly recommend everyone take the tour--our tour guide was amazing!

Device: Plastic humane live-capture mouse trap (catch-and-release style).
These traps are designed to capture the mouse without injury, allowing it to be released outdoors. Humane traps work by letting the mouse enter a small tunnel where a door closes behind it when the animal touches a trigger plate or bait area.
How this type works
Mouse enters the plastic tunnel attracted by bait.
It steps on or pushes the trigger plate.
A swing door or sliding door closes behind it.
The mouse remains alive inside until released.
Humane traps avoid the snap bar used in traditional lethal traps.
Animal
Deer mouse — Peromyscus maniculatus (most likely)
Visible traits:
large dark eyes
large rounded ears
brown upper fur
pale/white underside
pointed nose and long whiskers
Deer mice typically have brown backs with white bellies and feet and large eyes and ears, distinguishing them from house mice.
Confidence: High, though a white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) can look almost identical in photos.
What is Visible in the Photo
1. Mouse
crouched posture inside the trap tunnel
forepaws extended on the floor plate
whiskers projecting forward
eye reflecting the flash
fur appears slightly damp or flattened
2. The Mouse’s Condition
Indicators:
Fur appears wet or matted, possibly from stress, condensation, or contact with bait/oil.
The mouse is crouched with forepaws extended, typical exploratory posture.
Head angled downward toward bait.
The animal is alive and investigating the bait at the moment of the photo.

Klaxon is a trademark for an electromechanical horn or alerting device. Mainly used on automobiles, trains and ships, they alert listeners of the vehicle's arrival and possible danger.
The Klaxon's characteristic "AH-OOOOH-GAH!" sound is produced by a spring-steel diaphragm with a rivet in the centre that is repeatedly struck by the teeth of a rotating cog-wheel. The diaphragm is attached to a horn which acts as an acoustic transformer as well as controlling the direction of the sound.
In the first klaxons, the wheel was driven either by hand or by an electric motor. (The electric version has been credited to inventor Miller Reese Hutchison, an associate of Thomas Edison.).
The Lovell-McConnell Manufacturing Co. of Newark, New Jersey bought the rights to the device in 1908. F. W. Lovell, the founder, coined the name klaxon from the Greek verb klazō, "to shriek".
Klaxons were first fitted to automobiles and bicycles in 1908. Electric klaxons were the first electrical devices to be fitted to private automobiles. They were originally powered by 6-volt dry cells, and from 1911 by rechargeable batteries. Later hand-powered versions were used as military evacuation alarms and factory sirens. The klaxon is also famous for its use as a submarine dive alarm. Oliver Lucas of Birmingham, England developed a standard electric car horn in 1910. The English company Klaxon Signals Ltd. has been based in Oldham, England for the last 80 years, with premises also in Birmingham. The French Klaxon company was acquired by the Italian Fiamm Group in the 1990s.
Pete Rapp of Sitech Mid-Atlantic, explains the operation of a locating and positioning device to Will Patterson of TIC, during the installation of a coffer dam along the Savannah River. Sitich supplied the equipment to TIC, a subcontractor on the dissolved oxygen injection system as part of the environmental mitigation for the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project (SHEP). The coffer dam will allow workers from CDM Constructors, the prime contractor for the dissolved oxygen injection system installation, to build the site for a series of Speece cones. These cones will super-oxygenate river water and inject it back into the Savannah River to maintain current levels of dissolved oxygen as the shipping channel is deepened. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, oversees the SHEP, including environmental mitigation. (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers photo by Billy Birdwell)

This is an image of Paul, an individual with epilepsy, wearing standard issue protective headwear designed to prevent head injuries during seizures.
It is estimated that around 600,000 people in the UK live with epilepsy. The stigmatizing nature of the condition is known to have a significant impact on quality of life, and this is further exacerbated by aesthetically crude headwear that draws negative attention to the wearer.
Patient dignity is a core value within healthcare; it is embedded in our NHS Constitution. Understanding how medical devices can be designed to deliver patient dignity is, therefore, a fundamental aspect of healthcare delivery.
Through an empathic design lens and human-centred approach, researchers at the CHERISH Digital Economy Centre, Swansea University, are rethinking the design of protective headwear to go beyond functionality, to be aesthetically and technologically smart, and to appeal to the cognitive and emotional needs of the wearer.

The breaking wheel, also known as the Catherine wheel or simply the wheel, was a torture device used for capital punishment from antiquity into early modern times for public execution by breaking the criminal's bones/bludgeoning him to death. As a form of execution, it was used from classical times into the 18th century; as a form of post mortem punishment of the criminal, the wheel was still in use in 19th-century Germany.
The wheel was typically a large wooden wagon wheel with many radial spokes. The condemned were lashed to the wheel and their limbs were beaten with a club or iron cudgel, with the gaps in the wheel allowing the limbs to give way and break.
Alternatively, the condemned were spreadeagled and broken on a saltire, a cross consisting of two wooden beams nailed in an "X" shape, after which the victim's mangled body might be displayed on the wheel.
A wheel was sometimes used for the actual bludgeoning. During the execution for parricide of Franz Seuboldt in Nuremberg on 22 September 1589, a wheel was used as a cudgel. The executioner used wooden blocks to raise Seuboldt's limbs, then broke them by slamming a wagon wheel down onto the limb.
The survival time after being "broken" could be extensive. Accounts exist of a 14th-century murderer who lived for three days after undergoing the punishment. In 1348, during the time of the Black Death, a Jew named Bona Dies underwent the punishment. The authorities stated he lived for four days and nights afterwards.

De Sprengboje D is een toestel dat ontwikkeld is om het vegen van zeemijnen te hinderen.
Deze boeien worden samen met zeemijnen gelegd. Tijdens het uitbrengen zinkt de verankering naar de bodem en trekt de boei onder water als de ingestelde diepte is bereikt.
Als de verankeringsdraad door een mijnenveegtuig wordt gevangen, wordt de boei naar het veegtuig getrokken. Aan de onderzijde zit een ontstekingsmechanisme dat wordt geactiveerd zodra de boei het veegtuig raakt. Bij de explosie wordt het veegtuig vernietigd.
In het begin van de oorlog kwam de eilander Jouke Jelsma door de explosie van een object, dat hij op het strand had gevonden, om het leven.
Het is altijd een raadsel gebleven wat deze man om het strand had gevonden en naar zijn schuur had gebracht.
Het vermoeden is dat het een Sprengboje is geweest; het ziet er uit als een boei, maar is zwaarder omdat het gevuld is.
Wellicht heeft dat zijn nieuwsgierigheid gewekt en heeft hij geprobeerd de boei te openen en daarbij de ontsteker geactiveerd.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Sprengboje D is an anti-minesweep device, filled with explosives.
When a sweep hits the anchor line of the bouy it pulls the bouy onto the sweep and activates an igniter.
The explosion destroys the minesweep gear.
These bouys also washed ashore and made several casualties.
They were not recognized as a mine, and thus as a danger.
A Vlielander got killed probably by a Sprenboje; he found 'something' on the beach, took it home, and tried to dismantel it in his shed, an explosion followed which killed the man.
A very nice telescope that Jules Verne would have liked probably on the viewing level of the Eiffel Tower, played around with in photoshop which Monsieur Verne probably wouldn't have recognised.

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!
This is a photograph from the 35th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 21st June 2014 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged in the running community as one of the best races in Ireland. It is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Then this year the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year. The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Well done to all.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 1 mile mark and then at the 400M and 600M to go mark. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157645329098733/

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
