Last week some friends and I went on the Swanage Railway for a friend's birthday, can't beat a bit of steam train riding!
The Swanage Railway recently had it's first through passenger service since 1972 (from London) so hopefully it won't be long before services run again onto the mainline and beyond.
I've edited this in GIMP to keep the red streaks in the livery, the British Railway logo and a small amount of colour on the smokebox handrail (thanks to archidave!).

Conducting a collaborative research since 2012, Maria Andersson and Nancy Atakan study Turkey’s integration of Swedish physical culture practices as part of the modernization efforts in the early 20th century. Investigating the adaptation of gymnastics techniques and folkloric elements, the artists unfold narratives on Selim Sırrı Tarcan, the founder of physical education and the Olympics Committee in Turkey, as well as on the accomplishments of his daughters. Inspired by their life stories, the individual and collective works in Forward, March! explore the intertwined relationship between physical education and the emancipation of women in Turkey.

A warm morning greeted everyone at the annual Spring Fling celebration at The Pointe on Saturday, April 12th. The last 2 years have been cold and rainy and everyone was looking forward to the egg hunt being outside this year.
The Spring Fling is The Pointe's annual celebration of Easter and Family for our residents, staff and everyone's families. The day always starts with a complimentary, continental breakfast followed by a visit from the Easter Bunny.
It is always exciting as he walks in and the children see him for the first time. The Bunny takes his seat, as children, residents and staff take turns getting their photos taken. He also passes out free raffle tickets and treats to all of the children. Afterward, The Bunny lead everyone outside to the front courtyard to find over 1,000 eggs that were hidden. The youngest children are given a head start before all ages are let loose on the grounds. As the children searched for eggs, parents and friends took photos and videos of their loved ones. "It's always a special event when you can bring together multiple generations." said Program Director, Angie Garbaczewski. "The residents really enjoy having children around, regardless of the occasion.".
After the egg hunt, everyone returned inside for the drawing of the raffles. There was a free raffle for the children with one girl chosen and one boy chosen, each with corresponding baskets. During the event, an adult basket was raffled off for $1 a ticket or 6 for $5. This basket contained wine, cheese, crackers and treats. The money raised from the raffle went to the Activity Department to help fund outings and special events for the residents themselves. In addition to the raffle, this year we had the pleasure of a young entrepreneur who set up a lemonade stand. With the help of her mother, Kiran sold lemonade for a dollar a cup. She also gave out free lemon knot cookies with each glass sold. She also sold bracelets that she made for 25 cents. The bracelets sold out quickly, once thew children saw them, as well as several adults. After the day was done, Kiran donated half of her earnings to the activity fund. As always , the day was filled with wonderful moments that only a family holiday can give. We are grateful to all of the resident volunteers (who helped stuff eggs and decorate0, as well as staff and family who helped in numerous ways, from taking photos to wearing a bunny suit.

18 REASONS WHY WE ALL LOVE COX
Seniors
Club legend Greg Barras sat nervously in his house at Albury as word quickly spread that his club record of 18 goals was in jeopardy. Lee Cox under the beautiful Autumn sun treated the fans to a marking and goal scoring frenzy. Cox had a near perfect game, equalling the club record, and even found time to give off four more goals to team mates in better positions.
For the first time this season Hepburn was able to score the first goal of the match, usually slow starters, the Burras showed no signs of being lethargic and had eight goals on the board by quarter time. At the main break 20 goals had been amassed with Cox kicking half of them. Cox’s sidekick, Andy McKay unusually flew under the radar, (as was Cox’s dominance) but “ Hollywood” was still close to best on ground honours with his 7 goals , superb high marking and pin point passing to Cox on the lead.
Creswick had a day they would rather forget, but to their credit, they never gave up and had some young players who had very good games. As usually is with an uneven scoreline, most of the play was forward of the centre square, in saying that Hepburn’s backline had to concentrate harder, but when the opportunity arose, Trevor Johnson, Allan Ware and coompany mopped up and created opportunities for their team mates. Daniel Smith’s big frame also posed problems for the opposition. Smith played a very versatile game, using his body to great affect so his fleet footed allies in Baker, Rees, and the James boys could get their hands on the ball.
Brian O’ Halloran, the former star rover of the 1970’s is a proud man. His oldest son Tim is doing well in his first coaching gig at Reserves level. Next in line Dan becoming a seasoned performer, but the youngest of the clan, Liam, has settled in nicely into Shane Robertson’s structure, bobbing up linking play, and showing maturity well above his years.
Next week Hepburn takes on the big improver Gordon at the Laurie Sullivan Reserve which should be a match worth watching.
Final Scores: HEPBURN 36-12-228 defeated CRESWICK 3-4-22
Goals: L. Cox 18, A. McKay 7, D. O’Halloran 3, J. James 3, J. King 2, R. Gundry, T. Johnson, D. James
Best: L. Cox, A. McKay, D. Smith, D. Rees, A. Baker, D. O’ Halloran
UNDER 18’s
For two and a half quarters Hepburn matched Creswick, but were blown away in the end by one of the premiership favorites. The highlight reel was pretty small, but Joe Malone would have featured prominently having a blinder of a game in the middle. His strong work in tight and then classy skills to finish something his younger team mates can learn from.
Tom Conroy battled hard in the ruck, certainly holding his own and Lucas Bossinger put in his best game to date. The small brigade of under 15 players who fill in each week again performed well, with Jackson Carrick and Billy Johns being rewarded kicking goals. Next week is a big game as the boys should aim to have their second win for the season.
Final Scores: HEPBURN 5-3-33 lost to CRESWICK 20-14-134
Goals: J. Malone 2, K. Frost, J. Carrick, B. Johns
Best: J. Malone, J. Liversidge, K. Frost, M. Allison, L. Bossinger, T. Conroy

The Reaction Control System was used to maneuver the Shuttle once it was in space. Thre are reaction thrusters on the nose and tail of the spacecraft.
Here's another part of the shuttle where you look at it and truly begin to understand how violent re-entry is. Scorch marks all over.
Spoiler alert btw
8/10 *subject to change*
Don’t really do things like this, I might more often I’m not sure but this’ll be pretty straight forward
What I liked
Use of classic batman and superman themes
Flashback scene especially the green lantern Easter egg and a better looking ares
Batman was pretty ok liked him less than I did in BvS
Flash was also pretty good, better than I thought he’d be
Superman actually smiled and the bright blue suit was nice
Ww was okay
Aquaman was...well that dunno he was there I know that but he didn’t seem to do a whole lot. Thought he would be the “funny guy” but he wasn’t
Cyborg also better than I thought he’d be, but didn’t really do much
*Okay that had some dislikes but the rest of he liked sections will only be things I liked lol*
Steppenwolf was actually not as bad a every1 Says he is
Reference to black mask
The guy who was jimmy Olsen in 1978 superman makes a cameo
Both after credit scenes were great especially the one with lex and deathstroke
The fact that lex and deathstroke were supposedly cut from the movie making there appearance that much better
Chrispis Allen appears who is one of the spectre in the comics
Jk Simmons was great
That one scene when batman is scarring that one guy so the parademon will show up was pretty neato
Plot was fine didn’t like it or hate it was a bit cliche I’ll but I’ll put it in the like category anyway
Cyborgs new suit at the end
Everyone’s overall costume was pretty good especially the tactical bat suit
Penguin reference was also nice
Rick and Morty appear on a tv screen
That one scene when Bruce tells flash to just save one guy and then he’ll know what to do and he ends up saving everyone
Possible grid reference
Well that’s about it for what I liked now my dislikes
The fact the joss whedden directs a good 1/2 of this movie was only given a screenplay credit
Some reshot scenes look dreadful, aquaman looks like he’s in front of a painting yet he’s just outside at one part
Ezra miller you can tell got a haircut before reshooting
The fact that at the end of BvS it showed supes didn’t die cuz of the dirt floating at the end yet they revive him any way
Not mullet or black suit for supes...guess you could say the mullet was cut
CGI-ing away Henry cavills mustache looks pretty bad
The fact that supes is evil at first yet when he sees Lois *boom* he’s good again
That Russian family that’s trapped was really unnecessary
When aquaman saves the league from drowning how did he know where they were?
When cyborg is stalking Bruce and Diana how did he know where they were?
The fact that mr stone thinks cyborg can have a normal life even though he’s more of a robot then general grievous
Steppenwolfs face
The fact that wheddon tried making batman funny throughout the film which is fine sometimes like occasionally in The DCAU but it doesn’t work here
Pacing was pretty bad, it all went by real fast and some stuff kinda seemed thrown together, but that’ll happen when the studio makes you cut 45 minutes
1/2 the trailer footage was cut
I still dunno what mother box’s do in this universe
What does that one guy having a bomb have anything to do with anything
Why’s Alfred always a little mad in this movie
Superman asked batman if he bleeds a clear but stupid reference to BvS
Bruce was kinda mean at parts
Willem dafoe was cut
So that’s that
I probably like this film more than most anywho what did you think??
