Mantises have the Sun sign of " Aries " and are born during the Chinese Zodiac´s year of the Snake.

D&E Coaches operated Volvo B8R Plaxton Panther 3 YX22 LVY is pictured approaching Inverness Bus Station to complete a service on Scottish Citylink route M10 from Glasgow.
This vehicle was wearing the newest Scottish Citylink livery at the time, having initially been new in the standard D&E 2022 white livery design before being painted into Citylink colours for the contract on the M10. In 2026 this coach would be repainted back into plain white and returned to the leasing company it came from, with newer Temsa stock being repainted to fill in the gap left by this vehicle.

Coco trying out the new doggie life jacket in my mom's pool. At first he had a little trouble staying upright, he kept listing to one side then the other! Only took him about 30 seconds or so to get the hang of it, but he tired quickly. He's around 12 now.
And yup - we did lift them out by the handle! It's really easy to just give them a quick boost up the stairs, so they don't get panicky trying to get out.
...Soon, all the world shall see his might.
Major-General DeViers: Let me tell you again why you are here. Two hours ago, a nuclear device was detonated in central Tehran.
Alexei Ivanovitch: I know why I'm here. I wish to know who detonated the device and why.
DeViers: The device was planted and detonated by one of our top-secret assets. A certain Mr Gould.
Ivanovitch: So he's working for you? You need to keep your fucking dog on a leash, Englishman.
DeViers: What happened in Tehran was... regrettable. I lost a lot of good men and women. But you have to understand that it was completely necessary to our success.
Ivanovitch: Our success? I may make weapons, but at least I have a conscience. Four million people are dead! And that is just the start. What of the rest of the 14 million living in the area? How long before they start dying of radiation poisoning?
DeViers: I made you disappear and brought you back from the dead. Do not think that it is beyond my power to do so again.
Ivanovitch: Fuck you! The English weren't the only people in Tehran. The Americans and Chinese just lost some of their precious soldiers too. We could have a war on our hands!
DeViers: A war is exactly what we are looking for. It will topple the great powers of today and put Russia back on top of the food chain. Besides, for a man like you, it's excellent for profit.
Ivanovitch: What about your own country? Don't you care about this little island?
DeViers: I was a Russian double-agent for fifteen years during the cold war. I yearn once more to serve the motherland, to restore it to it's former glory.
Ivanovitch: You're insane!
DeViers: The Red Bear awakens, Alexei. Soon, all the world shall see his might.
And that's it for Act 2 of Modern Conflict from me! The ride has been a long one, and I've really enjoyed building the scenes and writing the backstories. Now, I'll sit back and wait for Act 3 (when hopefully, we may start up a public group).
Built for Modern Conflict. As always, members be tagged.
This scene is a continuation of this one.
the growth and development of technology is phenomenal and its users are getting younger. instead of toys, children nowadays are given tablets or phones for presents. since gadget prices have dropped, it has become accessible for anyone to buy no matter what their status in life is. when they wake up in the morning , most of these kids will simply reach out for their gadgets. and for for majority of these users , games are the most popular usage for these devices.
'Device to Root Out Evil' - it's taken me years to get a clear view of this sculpture by Dennis Oppenheim as cars and bikes are often parked around it in Plaza de la Puerta de Santa Catalina. Sometimes called 'The Inverted Church'.
“An artist’s conception shows a 16-ton space laboratory where four to six men can work in comfort while orbiting the earth 400 miles out. Martin Co. engineers say the lab could be launched by 1965. A resupply vehicle is shown here approaching the lab with relief crew and supplies. It is guided to hook up with a forward infrared device and a cable which seeks the heat source discharged from the base of the lab. That’s the moon to lower right.”
Another better caption, from an unidentified publication of the time:
"Martin Co. drawing of Manned Space Orbiting Laboratory (MSOL) shows earth-launched vehicle sending out a line with an infrared sensor to rendezvous with a permanently-orbiting station. Re-entry body probably resembles Martin's Apollo concept, since Martin says it is adaptable to earth and circumlunar orbits and can be fitted for a lunar landing. Similar re-entry body is located on top of the laboratory, which is Martin's ARIES concept."
Also:
“From April 20th to 22nd, 1960 in Los Angeles, the IAS (Institute of Aerospace Sciences, one of the constituents of AIAA), RAND Corporation and NASA held a National Symposium on Manned Space Stations. The number of presentations brought there by companies and institutions was massive and I'm still trying to track them down (eh, that would be an enthusiast’s part-time work!!!) Today I'll publish one of two proposals from Martin Company. It's a 16-ton, four-to-six crewmember station made up of three compartments. Average orbital altitude of 400 miles (apo 450 miles, peri 350 miles), inclination 80 degrees. Launch would be by a Saturn I vehicle in 1965. Crew would travel every 15-20 days between Earth and orbit onboard an M-1-shaped capsule (don't know if this is related to the slightly later Apollo work).
Key to numbers in the [first] illustration: 1.) Escape and re-entry vehicle; 2.) Control center; 3.) bio and chem lab; 4.) medical lab; 5.) astro and geophysical lab; 6.) antenna; 7.) magnetic sensor; 8.) parabolic mirror; 9.) telescope; 10.) telescope reflector; 11.) air locks...”

First heard/seen for me! And…this must surely be one of - if not the MOST - Rube Goldberg-like means of the proposed “hooking up” of spacecraft. Obviously & understandably, in 1960, there were many unknowns & doubts regarding the ability to precisely maneuver in space. But, this was floated as a solution?
Martin Company, 1960 ...but no signature. Frank DiPietro? Frederick Fahdt? John Gorsuch?
The dreadful Apple 'Magic' mouse was supplied with my iMac pro - it is the WORST device ever invented by Apple.
I have now replaced it with a Logitech Pebble M350, this costs about a quarter of the price of the utterly aweful and expensive Apple device.
It is INFINITELY better than the Apple overpriced rubbish.
This is the most dramatic and elegant doorbell-ringing device I have ever seen. The pull handle is at the bottom of the photo, just left of center. Above that, the handle is connected to an elegant spiral of gold-painted wrought iron flowers and leaves, wrapped around a metal rod. Then the bare rod connects at its top to a grandly decorated hinge mechanism.
From the hinge, a metal actuator extends through the villa wall and jangles the bell inside the entry hall. Kid must love ringing it...and probably lots of grownups too. I could barely resist.
