Two flotation device for air-gun fishing rides into the beautiful sunset at Angono lakeside.
While I was shooting this, I was focused on the base of these "strongholds" and my lens was at its widest setting already. Yet I didn't noticed that the poles had been cut off! Haha! What I like about these two "fortresses" is the contrast, as one is made entirely of wood while the other is partly made of metal.
Check out the blog entry in "In Pursuit of a Photograph" ;-)
The lake has that striking turquoise blue water associated with glacial lakes.. The color is due to glacial silt suspended in the water. Glaciers scrape bedrock into fine, round particles of rock or clay which are then carried away by tides or rivers. This "glacial flour" suspended in water refracts light, giving the lake a distinctive blue-green color.
To go rafting, we all had to wear flotation jackets and safety helmets.
Some of us wore wetsuits as well. I did, but I think I put it on backwards.

During this part of the bathroom tour everyone was required to wear their emergency flotation devices.

Kyla and I head off on our own mini vacation to the south georgia coast to stay at "hostel in the forest". and to check out St. Simons and Jekyll Islands. The hostel in the forest was an amazing experience. We booked the max - 3 nights. The hostel is located in Brunswick, very near the coast and the main sleeping rooms are tree houses, and the main lounge, kitchen, dining room are a cluster of domes. The hostel was built in the 70s by a man named Tom who still comes around on the weekends - very nice bloke. He built the hostel so he could meet travelers something he couldn't do with a family and a job as a lawyer. The hostel is $20 a night which includes a community meal. The working staff were nice touchy-feely hippie types and we met other travelers such as an english bloke, and some science teachers. Our first night we came in the dark just in time for dinner - a nice vegetarian meal with garden veggies. We hold hands before the meal and say our name, where we are from, and what we are thankful for. The next morning Kyla and I got up early to head to town for a kayak adventure down a river with a local company - my first trip. I did well, but had at trouble with the rudder, it was hard to keep it straight so it was a challenge to steer myself. But all in all I liked being in my own flotation device. The Trip was 3 1/2 hours long, and of course I felt a little sore. We didn't see any alligators - only birds. We also explore St. Simons (ugh! too touristy, bad food, expensive museums) and Jekyll Island (lovely beach! Former island of the Millionare's club). We stayed until sunset and once again got into the hostel at night time. On the Sunday of our trip, we decided to stay the whole day at hostel - it was awesome - skinny dip in the pond (twice), walk around to the garden and sweat lodge. Many of the paths are wooden boardwalks raised 2 feet off the ground through the lovely forest. There is a duck pond, murky swimming pool, giant walking labyrinth, tons of tree-roosting chickens. I painted pictures, wrote cards, read books, made shell ornaments by visiting the art dome. Very nice day indeed! At night the fireflies (lightning bugs) were out - magical. The only difficult thing about Hostel in the Forest were all the "palmetto bugs" - aka Roaches. I guess after some heavy rains there were more than usual skiddering about as soon as night falls. I really hated them and it was hard going to sleep at night knowing we had neighbors. Also the bedding was dampish-moldy - so if I stay again, I'd bring some of my own bedding.

Premier John Horgan toured the Highland Valley Copper Mine — located approximately 17 kilometres west of Logan Lake and about 50 kilometres southwest of Kamloops. HVC produces both copper and molybdenum concentrates through autogenous and semi-autogenous grinding and flotation.
This was old Building Insulation which was glued onto particle board. Some genius left it out in the rain, and the particle board was ruined. I was given the Styrofoam, as it was on its way to the dump. I sliced it up on the Band Saw (real mess) and glued it up into the 4ft x 8ft shape here... 32 cubic feet of flotation. The cut guides are marked in red. Other than having to vacuum, this whole process was very easy and turned out well.
Loki on her splash into the Grand Canal Basin. Just before entering the slipway, extra flotation drums are added to the sides & everyone gets a lifejacket, even the Vikings.
Making a splash into the waters of Dublin, using World War II vintage amphibious military vehicles, the Vikings conquer Dublin for a second time.
Viking Splash Tours was established in 1999 by Lynda & Peter Stocks, operating these Amphibious DUKWs built by General Motors, with a City tour & into the cold waters in Grand Canal Basin.
"D" indicated a vehicle designed in 1942,
"U" meant "utility",
"K" indicated driven front wheels,
"W" indicated two powered rear axles.
The DUKW, knows as a Duck, is a 6 wheeled amphibious trucks developed & launched at the beginning of World War II for moving goods & troops, on land & in water, crucial in those beach landings.
Nowadays, fleets of these Ducks are operating as various city tours around the globe including Dublin.
On a whim, two energetic high school science teachers decided to enter their high school, a Title I school where most of the students live in poverty, into a sophisticated underwater robotics competition sponsored by NASA and the Office of Naval Research, among others. Only four boys signed up for the competition, but once assembled, with enthusiasm and verve, they started calling oceanic engineers and military contractors for design help. They were advised that their underwater robot would require glass syntactic flotation foam. Short on money, all they could afford was PVC pipe from Home Depot. And some duct tape. Narrated by Michael Pena, Underwater Dreams is the true story of how the sons of undocumented Mexican immigrants learned how to build underwater robots. This rag-tag high school team of undocumented Mexican boys did what no one thought possible. The competition, however, was only the beginning. The boys forged a legacy that could not have been imagined: a legacy of aspiration, of activism, and of dreamers.

S69-20086 (13 March 1969) --- The Apollo 9 Command Module (CM), with flotation collar still attached, is hoisted aboard the prime recovery ship, USS Guadalcanal, during recovery operations. The Apollo 9 crew, astronauts James A. McDivitt, David R. Scott, and Russell L. Schweickart, had already been picked up earlier by helicopter and flown to the dock of the carrier. Splashdown occurred at 12:00:53 p.m. (EST), March 13, 1969, only 4.5 nautical miles from the aircraft carrier, to conclude a successful 10-day Earth-orbital space mission.

This drawing estimates the DEEPSEA CHALLENGER will be 25 feet (7.25 metres) high. It ended up being 7 metres high. At this stage the sub still has a conventional frame containing solid blocks of syntactic foam for flotation rather than the singler syntactic foam structural core of the final craft. It also shows large propellers unlike the final build, which has the six small diameter horizontal and six vertical thrusteras, based on the principle if one thruster fails down there, others remain to do the job.

little aqua star. I was once again amazed at how much fun she had in the pool. She tried those little inflatable water wings for the the first time (don't worry, I've got some shots of those too) and giggled her way across the pool. She later realized she could use her flotation vest to, . . . well, float.
And I also realized that he swim vest matches the water.

17 MAY 12
Last night I finally saw The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I say finally because I attempted to see its predecesor last year, and I completely fell asleep on it and ended up returning it without really knowing what the heck was going on, and this started out the same way. I was utterly bored and my eyelids were kissing, but then they started talking about photos and I perked right up. The movie was actually awful...in that rape, murder, torture sort of way, but good in the thriller sense.
The other movie I saw was Shame. My major in college was Psychology and I took a class called the psychology of sexuality and we talked about all sorts of sexual disorders and this was of course, one of them. I'm such a Fassbender fan. I've seen Jane Eyre like 15 times. I'm such a fan of actors who do what it is they are supposed to do, which is become chamilions and change and grow with each film, not become an action star and that's all you ever do until you grow to old to do it. You need to have some range, and he's got it. From Hunger to Eden's Lake to X-men to his other pyschological film wich I just saw, "A Dangerous Method," to Fish Tank. The man is good.
Today was a slow one. I ended up driving by my the first house I ever lived in and where some of my happiest memories were born. You just never know how great is is to have a backyard until you have one, or neighbors right next door who are both you and your parents best friends. So many stories! I loved that neighborhood because it was truly a family neighborhood. Long winding tree lined streets, a park right in the middle of it, nearby schools, and you felt safe. My parents would literally tell me and my brother to go outside and we would be gone all day long and they didn't have to worry. Now its like you have to give your kids a cell phone, and have them finger printed, and have their pictures on file before you can let them out of the door.
Speaking of low jacking your kids, having worked in a facility where lost kids was an everyday occurrence, I've become sort of an expert on giving parents tips on making sure your kids are secure. I try not to judge, because no parent can watch their kid 24/7, but let me tell you the difference between the "good ones" and the ones I know just dumped their kids and ran. First, most parents when going to a place of amusement, bring a camera. The first thing you should do is take a photo of your kids when you get there. In the case that they go missing, you can easily show the staff exactly what the kids look like and what they are wearing. Second, literally write your phone number somewhere on their clothing. If they get lost, they can tell an adult to call your number, or if they have cells, they can call you in case they forget the number. Third, cheesy, but coordinate your clothing. You're all wearing red shirts and jeans and white shoes. Makes it easy to see your kids and them to see you and remember what you have on. Fourth, the first thing aside from taking pictures that you should do is talk to your kids about who in this location is a safe adult, and who isn't. Usually staff wear the same thing. Point to the staff and say to them, if you get lost look for someone wearing this logo and this badge so they know who to look for. If there is an info hub or center, show them where that is, so they can get assistance if they need it. All of that takes five minutes and believe me, were a huge help to my staff and to me that I would get kids coming up saying, mom said if I got lost to come here, or dad wrote his number on my shirt, or mom was wearing the same thing I was vs. the truly hysterical kids (I'm talking 10 and 12 year olds) who cried and cried and couldn't get out their own names. I mean that's a bit on the ridiculous side. I know 4 year olds do that b/c their scared...but seriously you're 12...I mean....
Something a little different for HTT, and it might be stretching the definition of truck, but hey, it does have a load bed on the back.
This was some sort of amphibious/ flotation experimental vehicle, which used a Land Rover gear box, modified transfer box and axles. The engine is a 4 cylinder, air cooled Coventry Climax engine. It's not clear who designed or engineered it. Some 1964 film of it exists, being tested at Packington Estate, where Land Rover was testing a number of modified vehicles. It didn't seem to end well for this beast as it was seen being towed out of the water!
Recently, rebuilt and restored, I photographed it back at the Estate in 2023, when the Land Rover series one club held its 75th anniversary celebrations.
Following the July 24, 1969 splashdown of the Apollo 11 Command Module in the Pacific ocean, 13 nautical miles from the USS HORNET, a recovery helicopter dropped Navy swimmers into the water. The swimmer's attached this flotation collar to the spacecraft

Shanghai Lipu Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. is a professional Ball Mill,Magnetic Separator,Flotation Machine, manufacturer and exporter in China.
Copper Ore Flotation machine is used for separating ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It can be also used for separation of non-metaI materials such as coaI fluorite and steatite.The impelIer rotates by triangIe belt of the motor,whih produces centrifugal function and causes negative pressure.0n one hand it draws in enough air mixed with ore magma; on the other hand it agitates to mix ore magma with chemicaI medicines.At the same time,it minifies bubbles so that minerals can stick above them.float on the su- rface of magma,and form mineralized bubbles.The height of plate can be adjusted to control fluid Ievel so that the avaIlable bubbles can be scrapped out by scrapers.
Copper Flotation Machine Working Principle Description
1. Certificate ISO9001;
2. High quality and Competitive Price;
3.Stable performance;
4.Apply for wide range;
When in application, the impeller is revolved by the motor in order to produce centrifugal forces and negative pressure. Air is then absorbed to mix with the ore pulp (slurry). The copper ore pulp is stirred and mixed with chemical additives, which results in the formation of mineralized froth on the surface of the slurry. The liquid level can be carefully adjusted by altering the height of the flash board.
Application Area of Copper Flotation Machine
The copper ore flotation machine can be effectively applied for applications involving the separation of ferrous and non ferrous metal such as fluorite and talc. The machine has an impeller which works to create centrifugal forces in the form of negative pressure.The machine impellers and stators should be kept at a distance and replacement done as soon as they get worn. The pump bearings should be maintained every three months. Copper Flotation Separator can be used in mining, metallurgical industry, construction, road and railway building, conversancy, chemistry, etc.

Measuring possible flotation space volume using popcorn (unsalted, of course, and made in a hot air popper so as not to get any cooking oil on the wood) – in practice I plan to just use solid foam glued under the deck, heaviest along the sheer clamp area, for flotation and leave the ends open, thus this popcorn area will be open. Still, perhaps I should leave the popcorn there just in case I need something to eat when I get marooned on a desert island. Naw!!

Apollo Command Module Boilerplate
A boilerplate is a simplified metal model created to test specific aspects of the real spacecraft, such as water landings, launch abort escape rockets, or recovery systems. It duplicates the size, weight, shape, and center of gravity of the actual vehicle.
This particular boilerplate is BP-1101A. NASA used it for flotation tests in the Gulf of Mexico in July, 1965. After some modifications, NASA used it for additional ocean testing in 1966 and 1967.

Third place, Animals in Nature, by Renee Tucker.
Local amateur photographers submitted 101 photographs for an interagency contest during the 21st Annual Sportsmen’s & Outdoor Recreation Show in Roseburg. Ten photographers received the top awards as voted by people attending the outdoor show.
The contest included five categories – “Scenery”, “People Enjoying Nature”, “Animals in Nature”, “Flat Smokey in the Photo”, and “Selfies in the Woods” – and one “Best in Show” category.
Abigail McEnroe of Roseburg earned the “Best in Show” award, having received the most votes for her photograph of a young boy and dog, both wearing personal flotation devices, peering over the bow of a raft. She also won an additional first and third place in the “People Enjoying Nature” category and second place in the “Scenery” category.
This was the fifth “Land of Umpqua Amateur Photo Contest” sponsored jointly by the Bureau of Land Management, Roseburg District and Umpqua National Forest. More than 420 people stopped by the agencies’ booth to vote for their favorite photos.
