I had to rummage in the loft to find my old Akai 4000 Spool to Spool tape deck.
The level meters allow the keen user to balance the levels to get exactly the right result. Edited here to show only the Left meter to be pithing the 3" rules.
I did try to get a signal into the device but it refused to play ball :o(

Found note in diary Jan 5 1978, I donated blood and felt weak and was wheeled out in the sun with a cup of tea!
I had driven there to enquire about donating.
Gave my 45ml and then drove back to work in Civic..
Bus strike so I took the ute home...

Otohp is always ready, thanks to his "Plot Device"!
This Machine allows the Admiral to log into the Database of the Great Archives, giving him the needed information.
He can also use this Machine to Detect/Block any Recording device around himself.
The "Plot Device" was useful for the Admiral in many occasions!
Apologies for the vintage filter, but this is a kinda flashback to childhood play on my bedroom floor with the Trek Megos and Muton/Cyborg/Android/Dr Who Denys Fisher toys...
After an epic battle with Android and Muton's subforms, Cyborg lies drained... but Muton seems victorious; he has his hands on the alien Transcendence Device and with its untold energies flowing into him his evil will surely be unstoppable now - already his form is now beyond death.
But Cyborg's allies have a plan. With Spock monitoring the energy levels for a precise instant of vulnerability, the Doctor hastily connects the Device's power supply to that powering the planet's forcefield - which has kept help from the Enterprise at bay. Muton gladly absorbs the extra rush of power as the forcefield flickers and fades; for not even a volley of photon torpedoes could hurt his undying form now...
Kirk has the Enterprise transporter lock onto Muton, ready to beam him into the cold depths of space... but the alien laughs; even before 'transcendence' the vacuum of space was nothing to him...
"Energise, Mr Scott," Kirk orders, "maximum dispersal!"
There's a brief realisation of horror and failure on Muton's twisted face before his atoms are scattered far and wide across this corner of the cosmos.
But is even that enough to bring an end to the terror that is Muton?
Following seat trials at various times of the year since its arrival in May 2021 this Mocean Wave Energy Device Blue X device is leaving Orkney after nearly 3 years having completed testing.
liverwurst/pate spread onto a buttered cream cracker and sprinkled with fresh thyme next to butter sealed jars of liverwurst/pate. made yesterday, first attempt, spooned into jars this morning
i cobbled together various liverwurst/pate recipes for my recipe en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverwurst i couldn't find one specific recipe that suited me. either i didn't have all the equipment eg canning equipment or all the ingredients eg dried milk powder and bread. i found all recipes had certain basic ingredients. other ingredients were personal preference or great if you have them but the liverwurst/pate would still be ok without them
this is one of the liverwurst/pate recipes/video that i found helpful mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzGqQwCCTZGpkzGPdJhqQ...
my liverwurst/pate recipe below, not recommending, but was ok for me
ingredients
1/3 chicken liver (i didn't have any pork liver)
1/3 lean pork
1/3 pork fat (removed from a joint i cooked the other day)
herbs/spices (personal choice) cardamon, whole black peppers, cayenne pepper, sage, thyme and rosemary
1 large onion diced
salt
equipment
*meat grinder to mince the meat and fat (or buy already minced)
food processor to blend the raw meat, fat, onion, herbs, spices
nutribullet millet blade to mill the spices (or pestle and mortar)
meat thermometer www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-Stainless-Steel-Meat-Thermo...
**meat pouch of square muslin, folded in half as a triangle, i stitched down one side to look like a pointed pouch. the stitching should be small enough so as no meat will get out from the side when pushed into the pouch (ready made pouches can be bought, but i didn't have one so used the muslin that i did have)
*i bought an old fashioned meat grinder 'spong 25' for £7 from an antique and collectables shop. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334464667774?chn=ps&norover=1&... i happened to see the red handle sticking out from a box, took a look and knew it was exactly what i needed for the next recipe. once home i took it apart, cleaned it up, put it back together and attached it to my work surface ready for mincing
method
i put the lean pork and pork fat through the meat grinder*
i put the minced lean pork in a food processor with salt
blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
chicken liver added (this had not been minced)
blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
minced pork fat added
lean pork, pork fat and chicken liver all blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
added the diced uncooked onion
(add uncooked onion and the liverwurst/pate will be light in colour add cooked onion and the liverwurst/pate will be dark in colour)
added the herbs and spices
all blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
placed the bowl of blended meat, fat, onion, herbs and spices in the fridge to rest and become more flavoursome
removed the blended ingredients from the fridge and spooned into the **muslin pouch, pushing down towards the point of the pouch leaving no air pockets.
when all the blended ingredients were in the pouch i tied it tightly at the top
i placed the full pouch in the slow cooker and covered with water
(i used cold water but to save on cooking time i should have begun with hot water)
'low' setting
cooked for 6 hours
i used the meat thermometer to make sure the meat was cooked - very important www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-Stainless-Steel-Meat-Thermo...
i removed the pouch of cooked meat from the slowcooker and
allowed the cooked meat to rest overnight
this morning i spooned the liverwurst/pate into jars, pressing down using a teaspoon to make sure there were no air pockets
warm butter poured over the top to seal
when the butter had cooled and set the jars were closed and placed in the fridge
ps i'm not recommending any of these cookery adventures. they suit my personal taste. photographing to encourage myself to eat more healthily

"100 x: The 2022 Edition","100x:2022","Image 74/100"
As many of you have pointed out, I have tortured and abused Peeps in the most vile ways. Let it be said, I did so with the purest of intents, in the name of science, and let us be done with the incriminations. I have tried my best to study these squishy little Easter creatures to find out what makes them so appealing. They are cute. They have longevity, with the power to reappear year, after year, after bloody year. They are slowly taking on every colour in a sixty-four box of Crayola crayons, which as a side note are quite edible, even though one should not eat their crayons. If you find yourself shipwrecked at sea, enough of them tied together could be used as a flotation device, until you are rescued or eaten by a shark; the shark having the good sense to eat only what is edible, leaving the peeps raft behind. As one last experiment, I prepared a salad and before I could finish off my greens, I doused it with my favourite ranch dressing......still, it is totally inedible. Sigh.....
Disclaimer: No Peeps were harmed in the taking of these images. Well....except for the one I hacked apart with the knife AND the one I squished with a brick AND maybe this one drowned by ranch dressing, BUT no others.....trust me.....
Happy Easter, Everyone :-))
Stinging Nettle Slug Caterpillar (Cup Moth, Setora baibarana, Limacodidae) "The Clown"
The undisputed show pony of my local Limacodids…..
These caterpillars are custom built with every conceivable self-protection device imaginable. Bright, garish colors which are like danger signs in nature saying "I taste awful" or "I am loaded with poison; multiple stinging barbs which inflict painful and persistent burning rashes (on humans anyway); false eyes pointing in every direction to say " I see you, you can't surprise me"; a head end that looks the same as the rear end so there can be no potential surprise attack from behind; and specific to the Limacodid caterpillars (who actually have no true legs, hence the slug in their name), a sticky adhesive underside that makes them very difficult to prise off their food plant. With that in mind, stinging nettle caterpillars are often not hard to find. They don't conceal themselves day or night and will often be in the most conspicuous of locations. Basically, they have little to fear.
View my other images of Limacodid Caterpillars from China (Beijing and Yunnan) in my photostream, HERE.
You will notice I have given each individual a descriptive superhero-style name in the title of the image. This variety is aptly nicknamed "The Clown" for its garish theatrical decoration. There is a green version presumably of the same genus that I have dubbed "The Jester". These are for my own reference mainly because practically none of these caterpillars are identified (maybe even ever formally) and this will allow me to group the growing number of images I have into their like-kinds including the various instars I have captured. The names will be included as tags.
These are the varieties that are currently in my photostream:
Dirty Mary (Darna sp.), Virgin Mary, Bloody Mary, Toothbrush, Hole-in-One, Green Devil (Setora sp.), Bullseye, Carrot Top, Torpedo (Susica sp.), Red Devil (Setora sp.), Blue Streak (Susica sp.), Chameleon, Yellow Devil (Setora sp.), Green Marauder, Almond-backed, Submarine, Sand and Sea, The Clown, The Ghost, Chequers, Triple Streak (Parasa sp.), Pin Cushion, Haemorrhoid, Bread Loaf, Jelly Bean (Chalcocelis and Belippa spp.), Tank (Prolimacodes, Demonarosa spp.), Ninja Turtle (Narosa sp.), Doormat (Thosea sp. and Cania sp.), Snickers (Mahanta sp.), Blue Stripe (Parasa sp.), Blueback (Cnidocampa (Monema) sp.), Jagged Little Pill (Darna sp.), Pink Lady, Canary, The Jester, Stool, Yellow Caboose, Zebra Crossing, Ox Tongue, Octopus, Outrigger, Inkblot, Blaze (Thosea sp.), Firecracker (Ceratonema sp.), Icicle, Optimus Prime, Claret, Cherry Ripple, Lavenderman (Parasa sp.), Cogwheel.

More messing with figurines ,lasers and the rotation device.
quite a quick shot to take eventually but the set up took me ages for some reason this time.
Flibberty standing next to the buddleja shrub, wich attracts a lot of butterflies. She found it also quite amusing to trash, devoid of the butterflies.
Stocks are devices that were used internationally, in medieval, Renaissance and colonial American times as a form of physical punishment involving public humiliation. The stocks partially immobilized its victims and they were often exposed in a public place such as the site of a market to the scorn of those who passed by. This scorn was commonly represented by throwing rotten food at the victim.
So I went a bit further into the steampunk, but this time thinking outside the common "English" styled steampunk that most people think of first.
From left to right:
- An Outlands Railway Guard: The harsh tundra known as the "outlands" is a dangerous and harsh place, home only to nomads and bandit clans. However, this inhospitable place is also host to important, expansive railway networks between several countries. The trains that cross the Outlands need to be guarded heavily, and require the most proficient weaponry the industrial revolution has to offer to achieve this.
- Mountainous Scout: As the infamous Empire spreads across the lands, the nations of the northern mountain regions have started to send out scouts to make sure the Empire isn't setting up FOBs or sending their own scouts into the mountains. The development of multi-spectrum goggles has made seeking hidden enemies much easier, and amplified the ability of the already-competent hunter/trackers that these scouts are.
- Dessert Raider: As the Empire Warily creeps into south-eastern deserts, the native kingdoms retaliate by sending raiding parties to attack imperial camps. The raiders attack at night, using silent weapon such as bows, pikes, swords, etc. to kill any watchmen and set fire to supplies, sabotage transport and equipment, and kill as many people as possible. They are also known for stealing weapons and other gear from the camps they raid; useful devices and technology they wouldn't usually have access to, such as multi spectrum goggles (which help them see at night), and respiration devices (which can help manage smoke inhalation, from the fires they set).
- Nomadic Nobleman: nomads have been ever-present throughout the lands and generally kept to themselves in the past. however in the midst of the industrial revolution, various nomad clans have began to unite and form complex hierarchies. New technologies have made the life of these nomads much easier, namely the invention of steam based transports, as well as guns to better defend themselves. Despite their lack of land ownership, the United Nomad Clans have the power of a small country, and continue to grow bolder than ever before.
- Southern Principality Soldier/Guard: The Empire isn't the only powerful entity on the globe, in the tropical south regions, a thriving nation has its own distinction, with a proud culture and history, strong military might, and dominion over several other lands. With its own share of technological advancements, the soldiers of this principality are well equipped, with advanced firearms and even potent chemical weapons.
So that's that, I hope you like them!
Pictured is a member of 1 EOD Regiment RLC, with Fire Service Rescue Crew and a CUTLASS Remote Controlled Vehicle at Didcot PowerStation.
RLC bomb disposal experts offered their support to the Fire & Rescue, Urban Search & Rescue and search dog teams from across numerous counties in the search for the missing persons trapped beneath the vast piles of twisted steel, pipes and concrete – the remains of the collapsed Didcot ‘Site A’ Power Station.
Operators from Northolt Troop, 11 Explosive Ordnance Disposal Regiment arrived on site where they immediately deployed their Cutlass, state-of-the-art remote controlled vehicle, it’s more usually associated with pin pointing suspicious packages and explosive devices and destroying them however, in this case it was sent in to try and locate the missing inside the former turbine hall.
1 EOD Regiment RLC is the British Army's specialist unit responsible counter terrorist bomb disposal and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), the recovery and safe disposal of conventional munitions. They also inspect and licence ammunition storage and enforce explosives safety regulations.
The Regiment carries out its mission on all deployed and expeditionary operations worldwide and at home throughout Great Britain and on British Forces bases in Germany.

This is my entry to the Life Sized Accessory category of Space Jam 2019.
The Echo 3 is an item in Borderlands 3 that the Vault Hunter(playable character) always has with them. In the game, this device provides the HUD and menu system for the Vault Hunter, allowing them to keep track of their inventory, view their location on different maps, and document their missions.
The Echo device also has a slot to insert an Echo Cartridge, which the VH often finds scattered around the various worlds, containing valuable information on missions and characters.
I tried to replicate the Echo 3 as accurately as possible, and I think I did a good job. The only details I think I missed were the printed-on parts(like the Dahl logo) and the random bits of tape, which I have no way of producing in lego parts.
I hope you like it!
Today people spending too much time with their high technology devices so it seems like they live not with but "in" their devices.
I found out that all animals are related to the primal Zodiac so
Mantises have the Sun sign of " Aries " and are born during the Chinese Zodiac´s year of the Snake.
