Victoria Memorial, Kolkata. by Krisnendu Sar

8 15

Device: Nikon D300. This shot is an HDR. In fact this is my first 'HDR attempt'.

Many people are asking me as to why I tried an hdr here.

Well, I wanted the front of Victoria Memorial to be properly visible in spite of of the sun being at the wrong side. At the same time I wanted to retain the original luminosity of the sun. Thought an hdr will give me the desired effect.

The Place of Kilbirnie (9) by Arjayempee

A not dissimilar view to the last shot, but showing a couple of interesting features not shown before.

In the north gable wall, the remains of which I am standing in, two mural chambers can be seen on the extreme right. The upper one was simply a small room off the north end of the Hall, perhaps a strong room. The inner wall has failed at the doorway leading to it, holes for the door bolt being still visible in the jamb. The lower room is an access passage which at its far end has a very small hatchway in its floor, 18 inches square, which forms the entrance to a dark dungeon in the north-west angle of the keep. I didn't know about this so I didn't go looking, but I believe it is all still there to be seen. In the wall below where I am standing, was the entrance passage leading into the ground floor, with an opening to the left leading to the stair. This is all buried now in the rubble from the collapsed roof vaults etc.

The other item of interest in this photo is the remains of the massive Hall fireplace, the base of it level with the top of the lower vault. The remains of carving can still be seen on the jambs and there is an aumbry in the far side. To me the most interesting feature is what looks like a narrow ledge in the back wall of the fireplace (it shows as a dark line), probably just above the level of where the lintel would have been (so just up into the chimney). Formed from two stones, it has wording in prominent Gothic script carved on its lower face. The left stone has 'Maria' carved into it but the right stone is no longer decipherable.

Maria obviously refers to the Virgin Mary and It is thought the other was a saint's name and that their purpose was to deter evil spirits from entering the house through an otherwise 'unprotected' entry point (down the chimney) and bringing bad luck. In medieval Scotland, witchcraft was many people's biggest fear. This was a form of what is known as an Apotropaic Device, intended to divert the 'evil eye', and similar to the eyes painted on the bows of fishing boats in Asia or gargoyles on medieval churches, or even hanging a cross on a chain round your neck! (Carving faces into pumpkins at Halloween is supposed to serve the same purpose!) Anyway, if that was indeed its purpose here, it was, as events will show, to fail spectacularly!!

Asus RT-AC5300 by Apple Lover

It’s big, it’s heavy, and works very well.

Updated comment: 2016.01.20

I had some problems with AC87 and iOS devices, but in the last AC87 firmwares most problems had gone.

Asus AC5300 Works like a champ, no problems connecting a lot of devices, very stable, if there is one thing bad I today can say about this router is price.

I think AC88u and AC3100 are for shure great and secure purchases too.

Best regards.

Exa-1 is totally different body shape than its precursor Exa series. The rounded body shape is larger and heavier.

Ihagee Kamerawerk Steenbergen & Co, in Dresden, which was the largest independent camera manufacturer in Germany and was founded in 1912 by Johan Steenbergen.

The true Exaktas and Exas are ones made by Ihagee in Dresden.

Although Exa is much simpler than the professional Exakta cameras, the workmanship is equally good, finish similar, and the family resemblance obvious. With its lower price, Exa cameras are addressed to the amateur photographers.

During the 25th year of production of the 35mm Exaktas, Ihagee introduced the black and white labels as for Exacta IIa as for the Exa.

Ihagee did not produce their own lenses. Instead, they relied on many of the major optical firms of their day to each produce a series of lenses for their cameras, eg. Carl Zeiss Jena, Meyer-Optik Görlitz and Schneider-Kreuznach. The lenses from these three makers, in terms of the number and variations of lenses produced, are the most plentiful and in most cases the easiest for collectors and users to acquire. Maybe, over 80% of the Exaktas offered for sale are equipped with normal focal length lenses from these three firms.

Notes about Exa/Exakta classification

I use the Exa/Exakta classification of Andrzej Wrotniak. As to me, it is the best.

Some opinions of a serious Exa/Exakta collector, F W Tappe :

Andrzej Wrotniak uses a very sensible classification, listed on his website, which I personally like the best. It is multi dimensional in setup, without being complicated!

Richard Hummel's 1995 book lists an "one dimensional" classification, which is incomplete, but many sources still refer to this.

Aguila and Rouah (A&R) in their 2003 edition of "Exakta cameras 1933 - 1978", come to an improved classification. They built on their previous 1987 edition classification, which was the leading standard among collectors.

Klaus Wichmann, prolific writer of books about Exakta - and Exa cameras, published his classifications earliest.

Listening Device (tamed) by John Seven

Sound Mirors by Richard Watkins LRPS

5 1

Prior to World War II and the invention of radar, acoustic mirrors were built as early warning devices around the coasts of Great Britain, with the aim of detecting incoming enemy aircraft by the sound of their engines. The most famous of these devices still stand at Denge on the Dungeness peninsula and at Hythe in Kent. Other examples exist in other parts of Britain (including Sunderland, Redcar, Boulby, Kilnsea) and Selsey Bill, and Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq in Malta. The Maltese sound mirror is known locally as "the ear" (il-Widna) and appears to be the only sound mirror built outside Great Britain.

Acoustic mirrors at Denge

The Dungeness mirrors, known colloquially as the "listening ears", consist of three large concrete reflectors built in the 1920s–1930s. Their experimental nature can be discerned by the different shapes of each of the three reflectors: one is a long, curved wall about 5 m high by 70 m long, while the other two are dish-shaped constructions approximately 4–5 m in diameter. Microphones placed at the foci of the reflectors enabled a listener to detect the sound of aircraft far out over the English Channel. The reflectors are not parabolic, but are actually spherical mirrors.[1] Spherical mirrors may be used for direction finding by moving the sensor rather than the mirror; another unusual example is the Arecibo Observatory.

Acoustic mirrors had a limited effectiveness, and the increasing speed of aircraft in the 1930s meant that they would already be too close to deal with by the time they had been detected. The development of radar put an end to further experimentation with the technique. Nevertheless, there were long-lasting benefits. The acoustic mirror programme, led by Dr William Sansome Tucker, had given Britain the methodology to use interconnected stations to pin point the position of an enemy in the sky. The system they developed for linking the stations and plotting aircraft movements was given to the early radar team and contributed to their success in World War II; although the British radar was less sophisticated than the German system, the British system was used more successfully.

There are three acoustic mirrors in the complex, each consisting of a single concrete hemispherical reflector.

The 200 foot mirror is a near vertical, curved wall, 200 feet (60m) long. It is one of only two similar acoustic mirrors in the world, the other being in Magħtab, Malta.

The 20 foot mirror is similar to the 30 foot mirror, with a smaller, shallower dish 6 m (20 ft) across. The design is close to that of an acoustic mirror in Kilnsea, East Riding of Yorkshire.

Acoustic mirrors did work, and could effectively be used to detect slow moving enemy aircraft before they came into sight. They worked by concentrating sound waves towards a central point, where a microphone would have been located. However, their use was limited as aircraft became faster. Operators also found it difficult to distinguish between aircraft and seagoing vessels. In any case, they quickly became obsolete due to the invention of radar in 1932. The experiment was abandoned, and the mirrors left to decay. The gravel extraction works caused some undermining of at least one of the structures.

After the fireworks were over, huge bright lights were turned on so the enormous crowd could find their way out of the park. We were on the water side of the hill, so it was still fairly dark where we were. However, the light of electronic devices lit the faces of my young Korean friends. The Gas Works are illuminated in the background.

The Web Everywhere: Multi-Device Web Design

Luke Wroblewski, CEO & Co-Founder of Input Factory Inc.

The web no longer starts and ends on our desktop and laptop computers. Today, the tremendous growth of mobile devices is turning more and more people into multi-device and, as a result, cross-device users. Designing for this reality requires new ways of thinking and building for the web.

Join Luke Wroblewski, author of Mobile First (A Book Apart, 2012), for this in-depth look at today’s multi-device ecosystem. Learn how mobile provides a foundation for this new reality, how to build on this foundation to reach an ever-increasing set of devices, and where the web will take us next.

"Ingenieur-Komitee" Schwerer 24 cm Flügelminenwerfer by Paranoid_ Womb

5 9

The side of the barrel of this peculiar device seems to be marked "Jr.Fl.M.W.Na.22.N". I was unable to find any info on this weapon until I found something very similar in "German Assault troops of WW1" from T. Wictor.

There he shows a Heavy 240 cm trench mortar "Iko" (Schwerer Flügelminenwerfer "Iko") with Iko standing for Ingenieur-Komitee (Engineering Committee). The weapon is based on French mortars. The device weighed over a ton and required 42 men to reposition it. 20 shells could be fired per hour and the range was slightly over 1 km. The device was mounted on wooden railroad ties (crosstie, railway sleeper) and was positioned in a pit of approximately 2 x 1.5 m and 0.5 meter deep. Fixation required more railway ties and wooden wedges.

Clearly, the device seen here fits this description, although it is not completely similar. I presume the example I have concerns an improved version, designed by the engineering committee at a later stage of the war. The barrel here is longer and the mechanism to adjust the height is more elaborated.

To get back to the markings on the side, and to relate this to the description found in literature, the "Fl.M.W." no doubt stands for Flügelminenwerfer. "Na" might suggest neuer Art, but I think "nA" would make more sense.

Recently, I've seen pictures of French 240 mm trench mortars and the mechanism looks very similar, so it might just be a captured example after all.

A sculpture of a man with an ankle chain which has a mobile phone shaped block attached to it (not visible in this image). The artist's brief: The price of always being connected is -always being connected. All pervasive mobile communication has blurred the boundaries of our work and personal lives; maintaining an online presence cuts into the time we have for people in the real world; and privacy is almost a thing of the past. In the guise of making our lives easier, communications technology has come to control and define our every waking moment and ironically social networking has been shown to make users feel more alienated than ever. Be careful what you wish for!.

Wyoming was spectacular. I saw so many things that I haven't seen before. I am sure those have been seen ad nauseum in flickr. I will add mine to the list later.

But, to start with, something I havent seen before, anywhere, really, follows in the comments section..

Computer and human interface will probably one of the most important areas of development in next few decades. While we work to master our skills to make computers work for us more efficiently, and double processing power every 18month, little we have seen to improve our direct interaction with computers. What we have seen is form factor changes (tablet/smart phone), introduction to motion sensing input (Kinect), use of GPS, accelerometer, google goggle, google glass, etc. In my opinion we probably took a step back by heavily depending touch keyboards moving away from using 10 fingers (QWERTY keyboard) to 2 fingers. Fashion statements have become one of the key driving factors in the market. Most of our attempts to make handwriting recognition popular were never successful.

NECA 1:1 Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device Replica by ｓｏｌｏ

1 17

So I got my hands on the prototype Portal gun at the New York Toy Fair this morning. I was told it would be closer to $150, not $120, and it’ll be ready mid to late this year. They’re not sure yet where it will be sold, but Toys R Us was mentioned as a possibility. It’s satisfyingly large, the handle feels good and the thumb toggle to change from orange to blue and back is intuitive, the trigger is a trigger… nothing to get excited or upset over. It feels cheap. It looks cheap. But it also looks easy to dismantle for bulking up and repainting to improve. Honestly, I sort of feel that for the price that shouldn’t be needed, but I can deal with it. This one is not the finished product though, they will at least paint that inner core bit that should be black. Also the orange will be as bright as the blue and the sound effects which were weak should be louder and clearer. I wouldn’t say I’m disappointed, as I expected such flaws, so I’ll still be picking one up. But I can see a lot of unhappy fans that want perfection. Then again, considering the other game replica weapons I’ve seen, and for something this size with lights and sounds, the price is not bad and the cheapness is tolerable to make the price slightly more reasonable.
