this separates the bomb bay from forward crew pressure compartment. The hole is for the tunnel through the bomb bay. very tight.
First roll from the Erabox, I've been looking forward to seeing the results from this pre-war camera. Alas, I had bad trouble loading the film into the development reel. Manage to salvage a few frames (this is one them), all the others are FUBAR. Lessons learnt.
I've been having chest pains over the heart area for the past several days. Hope it's nothing serious. Having sudden thoughts on my own mortality.
Memento mori.

Hooker Andrew Flounders sidesteps a weak attempt at a tackle by Gosforth wing Ryan Gillespie to set up field position for Hartlepool Rovers' opening try in rugby union's Durham & Northumberland One league. Visiting Rovers, who led 10-0 and 28-7, went on to win 28-17, scoring four tries to three. The game was switched to the plastic pitch at Druid Park, Woolsington, one of nomadic Gosforth's former homes, owing to waterlogging at Broadway West.

Ryan is always one step ahead of the current fashion trends. Look for ill-fitting cartoon character ball caps to have a big showing in Milan this September.
So I was going through a box of old clothes and found this dress from 8th grade prom... 1991.
Totally dating myself here, but I was like I wonder... and it fit!
It's a simple black dress. Guess I was a little fashion forward fashionista even then xD
(oh yeah, I'm totally resurrecting this!)
The only sheltered place on the deck of Herbert C. Jackson is a mix of heavy equipment and recreation area.
“The material basis of media technologies – and books are only one example – is changing, for which historical perspectives might give not only comforting back-up (‘nothing is as permanent as change’) but also ideas to push the change forward.” (Jussi Parikka, 2012)
We can certainly talk about change; our present landscape is a space where the digital and physical have become synonymous, which many believe to be signaling the coming of an ontology-less future, through the accelerated disruption of cultural value. In this light old standards show their age and obsolescence in the face of the new, and with each new wave of informational overload we are further alienated by the system, that revolves around an economy of monetary circulation. All these factors come together to push a re-evaluation of identity and the human value. This brings to mind the genealogy of currency, articulated by Joseph Beuys during the discussion entitled What is money? : “Of course ‘Geld’ [‘money’] comes from ‘Gold’, same etymology. But it comes equally from ‘Geltung’ [‘validity’], meaning the value people fix based on their perception of a natural right. The word ‘Geltung’ is rooted in representations of a natural right, while the word ‘Gold’ is rooted in the economy of barter!” (Joseph Beuys, 2012).
In this light, Geltung [validity]: perception of a natural right brings together four artistic investigations that re-evaluate established methods of financial exchange bestowing new material values and identities to their subjects. In a landscape where monetary currency is pinnacle, the artists interrogate notions of personal and individual history, locality and its impact in identity and the framework that contains our cultural objects.
Diogo da Cruz’s work, WORDCOIN (2016 – Current), proposes the implementation of a new currency, that will give a literal value to each one’s speech. By creating The Bank for Argumentation, the costumer-museum-goer will have the opportunity to trust his or hers arguments to an institution that can save and trade them, giving the deserved and objective exposure to their ideas. Max Dovey presents Breath (BRH) (2017), a digital currency that is mined through human respiration. The installation combines breathing and micro-computers to mine, store and trade human breath as a virtual currency on the crypto-market(s). The market value of BRH is determined by the inflation created by respiratory miners who participate in the physical installation. Felicity Hammond’s artworks draws upon images from her own archive, using documents of the landscape and found images online; those of both existing and imagined future spaces. Hammond utilises particular motifs and structures that respond specifically to the digital representations found online of Dundee’s vast regeneration programme. For I keep forgetting I’ve been to Tokyo: GAIDEN (2017), Petra Szemán follows the virtual self through parallel and intersecting realities, along the departure-initiation-return structure of a hero’s journey. Drawing upon personal and/or constructed experiences, the work explores the idea of a non-localised identity that’s an archive of accumulated personal mythologies acquired from a multitude of realities.

2nd Combat Aviation Brigade
CAMP HUMPHREYS— Just a little over two years ago the Talon Café was a new player to the world of fine dining and still working on refining its methods. Forward one year down the road, with a new brigade commander at the helm and new dining facility leadership in place, the gauntlet was thrown down to continue to improve on what the previous dining facility staff and 2nd CAB leadership had worked so hard to build.
“As soon as I took command of the 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade, I held sensing sessions with the junior enlisted Soldiers in the brigade to find out what I could do to improve their situation,” said Col. James T. Barker, the 2nd CAB commander. “During every session Soldiers routinely mentioned that one of the most important things for them was the variety and quality of food at the brigade dining facility.”
Not long after Barker held the sensing sessions, improvement was already evident in the eyes of many 2nd CAB Soldiers.
“I couldn’t believe how much the food improved in such a little time,” said Staff Sgt. Vincent Abril, from Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd CAB. “One day I went to eat with some friends and they were serving a ‘Surf and Turf’ with crab legs and a T-bone steak. It was one of the best meals I had in a long time.”
In 2011, the Surf and Turf special was one of many new programs that the new leaders at the dining facility put in place to help bring the Soldiers back.
“When I took over as the dining facility manager, Chief Warrant Officer Robert Vandusen (2nd CAB Food Service Technician) and I took a look at programs that might entice the Soldiers to come here to eat,” said Sgt. 1st Class Irving Murillo. “What we came up with was to feature a different cultural meal to match each of the different holidays, a ‘Grab and Go’ food program for Soldiers on the move and pizza made from scratch every day.”
Within the first few months of the new leadership taking over, the Talon Café began receiving accolades. The initial award was first place in the National Nutrition month competition for United States Forces Korea. Little did they know at that time, but the Talon Café was on course for even bigger and better things.
“Immediately following the National Nutrition month, we began preparing for the Phillip A. Connelly Competition which is the biggest contest for our field,” Murillo said. “We began to work long hours, training day and night, to continue improving the conditions and the quality of food. For months the Soldiers and noncommissioned officers that work here sacrificed a lot to make sure we were prepared. The hard work paid off, as the Soldiers won installation and United States Forces Korea Connelly Competitions, then took second Army-wide.
“Just last month we found out we took runner up at the DA-level,” said Pvt. Tashanda Mitchell, a food service specialist from Headquarters Support Company, 602nd Aviation Support Battalion, 2nd CAB. “Honestly I was upset that it wasn’t first, but taking second out of all the dining facilities across the Army is pretty good.”

Dean Cemetery was laid out by David Cousin (who built Chirnside Bridge Paper Mill) and became a fashionable burial ground, its monuments becoming a rich source of Edinburgh and Victorian history, but mainly middle and upper-class. Many bear witness to Scottish achievement in peace and war, at home and abroad.
The cemetery is privately owned by the Dean Cemetery Trust Limited.
Of the many interesting notables buried here are William Henry Playfair, the architect, Sir Thomas Bouch, the railway engineer; Andrew Inglis (d. 1875), M.D., Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, and Professor of Midwifery at Aberdeen University; Robert Hepburn Swinton of that Ilk (d.1852); and Major-General Sir Hector MacDonald, the distinguished Victorian soldier (d.1903); and artist and photography pioneer David Octavius Hill (d. 1870). There is a monument to historian John Hill Burton (who is buried at Dalmeny) and his wife Isabella (née Lauder) and their children who are buried here
