"G.I.Joe fields several multirole armored vehicles that can be relied on to provide close-in air defense - most notably the Equalizer and the Mean Dog, both of which are also ferocious in the ground combat role. Unlike these weapons systems, the Sky Sweeper is a dedicated air defense platform, with limited uses against ground targets.
It carries a radar-guided double 25mm cannon and four short range Surface-to-Air Missiles that are transported horizontally, but typically rotated 90 degrees and launched vertically. But the Sky Sweeper's most potent contribution to air defense comes in the form of a large search radar that it can unfold and rotate in 360 degrees from its roof. This radar gives much longer range warning of air threats, including aircraft and missiles, and the information it collects is effectively used as a force multiplier, to increase the effectiveness of other anti aircraft weapons systems. The Sky sweeper carries basic short range air defense package of its own and it will enhance existing anti-aircraft capabilities of any G.I.Joe vehicles it operates in tandem with."
The Sky Sweeper was released as part of the futuristic themed BattleForce2000, back in 1987, when the 21st Century seemed like far away. BattleForce2000 had various separating and combining features that never worked very well in practice, and many Joe fans consider this subteam to be a bit of an embarrassment. But the basic vehicles had some pretty promising designs and one of the strongest IMO was the Sky Sweeper - a dedicated "anti aircraft tank."

I've done away with the separating bunker that becomes part of a larger "Future Fortress" gestalt, and focused on the basic design and function. Between the role and the name of the Sky Sweeper, I wanted to give it the best possible air defense capabilities I could, so I imagined it as a long-range radar carrier. I even considered giving it no weapons at all, but in the end the side missiles and rear turret won out because it is just more fun that way.
"Cobra has come to deploy a number of air assets, and G.I.Joe ground forces need to be able to sweep the skies of airborne threats. Enter the Equalizer. Based on the venerable Mauler tank, the Equalizer is armed with a pair of 30 mm autocannons and six SAMs built around a search and tracking radar system. Optimized for short-to-medium range air defense, the Equalizer can track multiple targets, including helicopters, low flying planes, and even missiles, and attack them in order of threat level.
Its 30mm autocannons can also be directed in the direct fire role against ground targets. They are fearsome weapons against any light or medium armored opponent, and their high elevation makes them useful in urban combat and mountain operations. The Equalizer has a crew of three - a driver, commander, and weapons operator."
The G.I.Joe Equalizer www.yojoe.com/vehicles/89/equalizer/ was clearly inspired by Cold War era SPAAGs such as the German Flakpanzer Gepard. I loved the unusually realistic camouflage, and always thought this looked like an absolutely badass toy. The turret on the original seems a little outsize to me, so I redesigned it to be a little smaller, while still keeping the same weapons and radars. My version also has space for the weapons operator to take cover in a "hatches down" position. The hull is simply a recolored rebuild of my Mauler hull, which is a little fragile, but has a nice, low profile. Building new versions of existing vehicles saves a lot on design (R&D) time, and many Joe vehicles were recolored over the years, so I might be doing more of this, including some more personal takes on old designs.
I lightened this, gave it an equalization technique, a maximum technique and light sharpening. These trees are where I live. My neighborhood is likely the second largest Christmas Tree Capital of the World, Monroe & Alpine area of Oregon.
The larger brothers and sisters of these trees have already been heading out to other parts of the nation by huge truckloads. Seems early to me, but some people buy their tree right after Thanksgiving.
If you are tempted to criticize the size, resolution or quality of this image ~ please don't ~ I used a Sony Mavica Digital (sub-megapixel) camera, which was State of the Art in 1999 ~ Digital Cameras have since come a long way

The *soul* for this photo is it made my soul feel good to see all these adorable baby Christmas Trees, and rather than being harmed by the winter snow, they seemed to be thriving on it.
This is my latest machine, just finished yesterday.
I am calling it The Piano Player. It was made for my father's 75th birthday party which is tomorrow. He taught himself to play piano when I was a kid, and I remember him sitting with his earphones on playing away with no music to hear. I thought it would be fitting for me to make this for him since I am a self taught woodworker.
When the handle is turned, the keys that the fingers rest on move up and down and the corresponding equalizer bars in the back move with them. It is made from Cherry (frame), Maple (keys and mechanical parts), walnut (black keys and finishing dowels), Padauk (equalizer bars), and Yellowheart (hands). The final machine took close to 60 hours to finish, including having to make a custom box to transport it in. That does not include the concept and study models I started with. Dimensions are approx. 22"x16"x10"
I hope to have video edited and ready for upload sometime this coming week, along with a bunch more pictures
New Haven Railroad Parlor Plymouth, built in 1924 to Pullman Parlor plan 3917, is seen in the yard at South Boston, Massachusetts 10-12-1946. This car was air conditioned and rode on six wheel straight equalized trucks. The car had 32 parlor chairs and one drawing room. In 1945 the New Haven Railroad purchased this car and leased it back to Pullman, and eventually it received the newer two tone gray paint scheme. The New Haven utilized these heavyweight parlor cars long after the new lightweight parlor cars arrived on the property, but as parlor car usage demand was reduced, some parlor car were converted to coaches.
The name of the photographer that captured this image on film is Col. T.S. Martorano. This photo came from my personal collection.

Took a trip up to schiphol airport yesterday. Amsterdams airport, and this is what i found, There are still some flights and travellers and a part of the shops are also still operational. However there are vast swatches of airport that are totally deserted. Like here economy and buisnessclass, we´re all grounded now for the most part.
The theme for Macro Mondays is Wise Old Sayings. This is an image of the nose of a .44 caliber bullet, which is peeking out of the cylinder of my Colt 1873 SAA revolver, which is the revolver that inspired the following saying:
Be not afraid of any man
No matter what his size,
When trouble threatens, call on me
And I will Equalize.
Here's another saying inspired by Samuel Colt's six guns:
God made men, but Sam Colt made them equal.
Check the first comment below for a photo of the Equalizer that inspired the sayings.

Synopsis : In The Equalizer, Denzel Washington plays McCall, a man who believes he has put his mysterious past behind him and dedicated himself to beginning a new, quiet life. But when McCall meets Teri (Chloë Grace Moretz), a young girl under the control of ultra-violent Russian gangsters, he can’t stand idly by – he has to help her. Armed with hidden skills that allow him to serve vengeance against anyone who would brutalize the helpless, McCall comes out of his self-imposed retirement and finds his desire for justice reawakened. If someone has a problem, if the odds are stacked against them, if they have nowhere else to turn, McCall will help. He is The Equalizer.

This is a great audiophile setup focused in headphone audio. You can see:
- iMac 20"
- ultra-curve pro deq2496 digital equalizer (below iMac)
- Singlepower mpx3 tube headphone amplifier (customized)
- Marantz cd player (below the tube amplifier)
- Aqvox USB D/A MkI DAC (in silver below the cd player)
The iMac is connected to the DAC through an optical cable and amplified in the singlepower. You can see some of the headphones of my collection to the left, a Grado HF-1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grado_Labs) and (half) sennheiser HD650 with setefan audioart equinox cable. Note the cheap blue headphone stands made with plastic mineral water bottles and cd spindles :)
Memphis skyline in the late afternoon sun viewed from across the Mississippi River.
Does anyone else find it ridiculous that it took around 5 or 6 hours to process these photos? I don't mean the software rendering time was that long, I mean that it took me 5 or 6 hours to play with settings in my software until I got a result I liked.
I uploaded 3 tonemapped versions of this HDR shot. This one looks like a watercolour, and has lots of detail and contrast. The other two look a more realistic, but with less definition. I could not decide which one I liked, I hope you will view all 3 and let me know which one you like the most.
This image is created from 13 exposures and is tonemapped using the Perceptual Framework for Contrast Processing of High Dynamic Range Images by Rafal Mantiuk, Karol Myszkowski, and Hans-Peter Seidel in QTPFSGUI with Contrast Equalization engaged.

"The charged regions within the atmosphere temporarily equalize themselves through a lightning flash, commonly referred to as a strike if it hits an object on the ground."
I guess these lightnings were approximately 5 to 20 kilometres away, giving me a superb view. I was very lucky being there at dusk, safe from the thundercloud, trying to catch the golden light along with this unique and outstanding phenomena. It's a panoramic photo of two images, taken with 30-second exposure time at f22, iso 400.
It's my first attempt to capture lightnings.
"Lightning occurs approximately 40–50 times a second worldwide, resulting in nearly 1.4 billion flashes per year."
Derived from the chassis of a civilian heavy hauler, the Equalizer matches its menacing looks with a battery of bombardment weaponry. Able to linger in battle for extended periods of time due to its reinforced plating, the Equalizer delivers punishing volleys against capital ships while also remaining a competent anti-frigate platform.

I never got around to adjusting the equalizer after connecting my new speakers. I finally took the time to tune everything and it’s beautiful, a night and day difference :)
Glasgow Cathedral, also called the High Kirk of Glasgow or St Kentigern's or St Mungo's Cathedral, is today a gathering of the Church of Scotland in Glasgow.
The title cathedral is honorific and historic, dating from the period before the Scottish Reformation and its former status as the Roman Catholic mother church of the Archdiocese of Glasgow and the cathedra of the Archbishop of Glasgow (which is now in St. Andrew's Cathedral, the present mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Glasgow). The current congregation is part of the Church of Scotland's Presbytery of Glasgow. Glasgow Cathedral is located north of High Street and east of Cathedral Street, beside the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.
Glasgow Cathedral with Cathedral Square
The history of the cathedral is linked with that of the city, and is allegedly located where the patron saint of Glasgow, Saint Mungo, built his church. The tomb of the saint is in the lower crypt. Walter Scott's novel Rob Roy gives an account of the kirk.
Glasgow Cathedral, engraving by John Slezer, (1693)
Built before the Reformation from the late 12th century onwards and serving as the seat of the Bishop and later the Archbishop of Glasgow, the building is a superb example of Scottish Gothic architecture. It is also one of the few Scottish medieval churches (and the only medieval cathedral on the Scottish mainland) to have survived the Reformation not unroofed.
James IV ratified the treaty of Perpetual Peace with England at the high altar on 10 December 1502.[1] The cathedral and the nearby castle played a part in the battles of Glasgow in 1544 and 1560.[2] Twenty years after the Reformation, on 22 April 1581 James VI gifted the income from a number of lands to Glasgow town for the kirk's upkeep. He traced the ownership of these lands to money left by Archbishop Gavin Dunbar as a legacy for repairing the cathedral.[3] The town council agreed on 27 February 1583 to take responsibility for repairing the kirk, while recording they had no obligation to do so.[4] The church survives because of this resolution. Inside, the rood screen is also a very rare survivor in Scottish churches.
An old postcard view of the Cathedral (1893)
Technically, the building is no longer a cathedral, since it has not been the seat of a bishop since 1690. However, like other pre-Reformation cathedrals in Scotland, it is still a place of active Christian worship, hosting a Church of Scotland congregation. The current minister (since 15 February 2007) is the Rev Laurence A. B. Whitley, PhD, who was previously minister at Montrose Old and St Andrew's Parish Church. The previous minister was the Very Rev William Morris, who was minister from 1967 until retiring in November 2005. The building itself is in the ownership of the Crown, is maintained by Historic Scotland, and is a popular destination for tourists.

This retro VHS advert from a "Video Store" monthly magazine touts the cult cheesefest "Equalizer 2000" as the next must-have tape for the rental shelves. The film, helmed by the grindhouse yeoman Cirio Santiago, seemed to do brisk rental trade during the VHS era. It pops up occasionally at flea market, but isn't so common now. On the bottom is the sword-sorcery-and-skin epic "Amazons" (1986). The blurb promised "passion and power" plus "magic and myth" for this rarer release.
From a totally different trip to Porvoo as the other night shot in the stream (www.flickr.com/photos/naggobot/8174561179/). This is actually from a different winter. Special thanks to the friend who made the trip happen. Weather was far from good, it was raining snow and in addition the wind was also significant. I would not have gone out at all if it was only up to me alone.
As it is the extremish weather rewarded both of us with some nice shots. I took only three different sets of exposures until I was freezing. This is from the first set and by far the best. At least I belive so since I have not processed others yet.
Strange bokeh effect is caused by the snow on the camera lens. In reality all exposures were orange due to the lights but I decided to fake most of the image to the cooler blue instead of orange. The bridge I left warm orange and I did four different versions of the fade out to the cool blue until I settled for this.
