On day 1 of our 2010 Route 66 road trip we had an accident and totaled our beloved 2004 Honda Element. Here she lies for eternity.
Travis Kelland was 20 years old when Germany invaded Poland to start World War II. He was also the only son and heir to Sir Charles Kelland, a wealthy and powerful businessman whose vast holdings stretched across many provinces of Canada. Sir Charles was grooming young Travis to eventually take the reins of the Kelland empire. However, Travis had other plans. He enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy and set forth on a grand adventure to fight the Nazis.
Of course, Travis was in for a rude awakening. He joined the MTB’s (Motor Torpedo Boats) squadrons fighting in the Channel and the North Sea and was immediately faced with death and destruction, winning the DSO from the King himself. Yet Travis was a survivor too. After proving himself in combat, he was transferred to the Mediterranean and took command of his own MTB based out of Alexandria, Egypt. In this theatre of operations, his crew fought German and Italians, constantly faced with overwhelming odds and the constant threat of Rommel. One mission took Kelland to Greece to rescue the family of a powerful Greek merchant and Travis fell instantly in love with his daughter Kathryn.
As Travis continued to make a name for himself with the Admiralty, he and his crew became wrapped up in the war’s casualties on a much more personal level. In the end, Travis couldn’t compete with a dashing Greek officer in the Royal Navy and he lost his dear Kathryn. It was just a matter of time, however, when dashing and twice decorated Lt. Commander Kelland rescued a Spanish refugee named Carlota, as the freighter she was traveling on was attacked by a German U-boat. This indeed was a romance that neither war nor the British Empire could prevent. These are the adventures of MTB 545, from 1940 – 1945, spanning the desperate years to the days just prior to the D-Day invasion. Travis Kelland proves that his “adventure” had much more to do with love and respect, than war and destruction. Element of Surprise, like Derek Hart’s previous novels, is based around extensive research and filled with interesting and diverse characters. This war at sea, in little tiny wooden boats, was fast and furious, but the men and women who fought against the German onslaught were just everyday citizens. Their hopes and dreams, fears and losses are captured within the pages of Element of Surprise, the first book to the Torpedo Boat Trilogy.

I hereby nominate myself for dumbass of the year. Here's the story:
I was returning from Tucson (about 1.5 hours from home) with some friends and there was a bad accident on 10 FWY and traffic was at a standstill for as far as the eye could see. We could see roads on both sides and trucks were using the one on the right side. A whole bunch of cars did a U-turn and headed back to the previous exit to catch said frontage road. I stopped for gas and asked the attendants whether the roads on either side cold be used. They said yes. (I guess I should have been more specific with my question).
So we take off on the road less traveled (left side frontage road). Approx 3 miles down a sign says "Pavement ends in 100 feet". Perhaps this is why the truckers used the other road. At this point sensible people would have turned back. Not us. So the dirt road starts veering away from the freeway. No big deal. How hard can it be? We're in an "all wheel drive" :-)
We are now in the middle of cotton fields, on dirt roads - and no sign of life. We come to a T intersection. To the left is a stop sign and likely a real road. To the right is all dirt and the general direction of the freeway. My friend Ben suggests left. I suggest we take the more "adventurous route". Sure, why not? Road starts to get worse - and I am fishtailing a bit and drifting off due to the camber of the road, but trying to keep a good momentum. It worked for about 1 mile and then we just drifted off into the slush and the poor Honda stopped on it's belly in the mud!
Middle of nowhere. No sign of life. We didn't even know what exit we left. But we could see the an Air Base - so after a few failed attempts at digging it out, I start walking (about 3 miles) to the air base to find our location. Meanwhile Ben calls another friend named Gary and manages to describe landmarks. I get to the airbase, find out our location and call the Auto Club (who said that such idiocy was covered but it would be at the tow driver's discretion as to whether he would be willing to attempt a tow.) While I am on the phone with AAA, Gary show up! We head back to the stranded Honda. Gary also almost gets stuck but in 4 low, after rocking back and forth, he gets out. And after a lot of mud spraying in all directions, he tows us out and guides us back to civilization.
So - moral of the story - when your instinct tells you there is a reason everyone else is taking the "other" road, listen to your instincts :-)
Tradicionalmente el origen y fundación de este convento va unido a la figura de San Pedro Nolasco, tras la conquista de la ciudad. El edificio ha sufrido numerosas transformaciones desde su fundación. El conjunto actual es obra del siglo XVIII, aunque reformado en 1850, cuando fue destinado a hospicio, y en 1960, para adaptarlo a sede de la Diputación Provincial, adquiriendo su actual fisonomía bajo la dirección del arquitecto Rafael de la Hoz Arderius.
El edificio actual obra del siglo XVIII, ignorándose los autores que intervinieron en la estructuración del conjunto. En su construcción hubo dos fases. La primera corresponde a los comienzos del siglo XVIII, se construye toda el ala septentrional, el claustro secundario y dependencias anejas. De ellas sólo se han conservado el patio y la escalera. Esta última fue financiada por el cardenal Salazar y la hizo Francisco Hurtado Izquierdo. Su traza guarda estrecha relación con la escalera secundaria que el citado maestro realiza por esos años para el Hospital del Cardenal Salazar.
En una segunda etapa se acomete la construcción de la iglesia, el claustro principal, la escalera y las dependencias que lo rodean. Se transforma también la fachada exterior del convento, dándole al conjunto la mayor conjunción y unidad. Las obras se desarrollaron entre 1716 y 1760, bajo el patrocinio de fray Pedro de Anguita, fray Pedro González y fray Lorenzo García Ramírez. Se desconocen los maestros que las llevaron a cabo, aunque no se descarta la colaboración de los hermanos Francisco y Juan Aguilar del Río Arriaza, Tomás Jerónimo de Pedrajas y Alonso Gómez de Sandoval.
La iglesia se construye entre 1716 y 1745. Está situada en el centro del conjunto y sirve de eje divisorio entre los dos claustros que articulan el edificio, cuyo nexo de unión lo constituye la galería que circunda la cabecera del templo.
Al exterior muestra una fachada estructurada en tres calles por medio de pilastras que separan la parte central de las laterales, rematadas éstas por sendas espadañas. La calle central coincide con el desarrollo de la nave principal del templo; está formada por tres cuerpos sobre los que descansa un frontón triangular coronado por la figura de San Rafael. En el centro sobresale la portada de la iglesia, en piedra blanca, con gran movimiento en las cornisas y soportes, destacando en el segundo cuerpo una hornacina con la imagen pétrea de Nuestra Señora de la Merced.
La iglesia de planta de cruz latina inscrita en un rectángulo. Tiene cabecera plana flanqueada por sacristías, tras naves y crucero. Por encima de los arcos formeros, a lo largo de los brazos de la cruz, se abren tribunas. La nave central se cubre con bóveda de cañón con lunetos y los brazos del crucero lo hacen con cuartos de esfera divididos en tres gajos. Los elementos tectónicos se decoran con medallones policromados, donde aparecen bustos en medio relieve de los santos y beatos de la orden mercedaria enmarcados por ricas yeserías.

A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are over 6000 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
Elements are fundamental substances of matter - matter that is composed of the same types of atoms. At present, 118 elements are known (four of them are still unnamed). Of these, 98 occur naturally on Earth (hydrogen to californium). Most of these occur in rocks & minerals, although some occur in very small, trace amounts. Only some elements occur in their native elemental state as minerals.
To find a native element in nature, it must be relatively non-reactive and there must be some concentration process. Metallic, semimetallic (metalloid), and nonmetallic elements are known in their native state as minerals.
Silver is part of the gold-group of metallic elements. Silver is a precious metal, but is far less valuable than gold or platinum. Silver usually occurs as a silver sulfide mineral, but it also occurs in nature in its native state, often in the form of twisted wires. Silver is moderately soft and has a silvery-white color on fresh surfaces that tarnishes to darker colors. Elemental silver in nature is often found alloyed with other metals. Naturally alloyed gold-silver is called electrum.

I finally blushed my mermaids tail and my good friend did her shell tattoo since she is the element of water we thought the shell would be a good symbol!

Adriano blitzed the finals of the MR Pro on Sunday down at Merewether beach. Catching wave after wave and securing his lead with an arial on his last wave, his competitor and friend Jeremy Flores from France really didn't have a chance.
I got some transparent light blue 1x3 bricks. They were never used in sets, but are not difficult to find. These must be modelbuilder leftovers.
Looking at them a bit more closely, I noticed odd diagonal bands on the inside top surface of these bricks. I can't think of any plausible reason why these would be there...
Does anyone have a suggestion? (Please comment below.) Or is this just one of those weird things that happen, when humans do work?
Cavity numbers 1 to 16, no mould number. All have these diagonal marks with a slight variation in their position. The number 11 is engraved in a different font.
Bromine, symbol Br, atomic number 35 is a red, non-metallic liquid discovered in 1826 by Antoine Balard in a salt marsh. *Though perhaps a German student Carl Lowig found it first but didn't get around to claiming it. Bromine is not something you want to stick your nose in, as it is irritating, burning and hazardous, with a noxious vapor.
The name bromine comes from the Greek for "bromos" or stench. The stench might even be that attributed to a stinky goat.
From bromine, we get bromides, which are compounds containing bromine. An example is silver bromide is used in photographic processes.
Bromine/bromide has also influenced language. That is the use of bromide to mean dull, uninteresting, trite and tiresome. To quote wordsmith.org: " In earlier times, potassium bromide used to be taken as a sedative. So any statement that was intended to be soothing ("Don't worry, everything will be OK.") acquired the name bromide. Eventually any commonplace or tired remark and anyone uttering such remarks came to be known as a bromide."
From this boring "bromide" comes "bromidic," the adjective form.

My print was created by screen print with 3 screens for 3 color process. Due to some learning curve errors, in the end my screens were created by painting the negative space with screen filler.
I used the image of a goat after reading a reference to "stench of the goat" relating to the Greek word for stench. This goat is standing by a marsh and inhaling the nasty red vapor of bromine (but he doesn't mind, because he already smells).
After I had designed the image, I went on to read about the linguistic connection between bromine and bromide/bromidic. I thought that was really interesting. I always like when sedation leads to new words. Nowadays I don't think these terms are used much, but we should put them back into use. It can be the new cool slang if we get the right people saying it in public. It's basically the equivalent to "triflin'" (trifle-ing) anyway.

I love this project, everybody's prints, and can't wait to see where this goes. Thanks to azuregrackle and everybody else. Various internet sources were used in obtaining the above info about bromine.
