Samsung NX2000, 12-24mm f4-5.6 i-function Lens by Nik Morris (van Leiden)

1

Samsung 12-24mm f4-5.6 i-function ultra-wide angle lens. Perfect for architectural photographs, which I do a lot of, and landscape photography, this lens squeezes man-made and natural magnificence into picture-sized slices thanks to its 99.0 to 60.7 degree field of view and excellent control of perspective. This lens is my current preferred choice for all architectural work, especially in the confines of the many small medieval streets with tall narrow buildings that we have here in the Netherlands.

I have not had much chance to try it out on the NX2000 shown here, but it works well on the NX11.

As with all the NX lenses I like how compact it is for what it does. I have seen some reviews where they criticised the build quality and fragility of the lens and I have to say i disagree with both aspects. It is certainly not all metal but it is a robust construction. Frankly any lens that can withstand being lugged around Europe by me and surviving epileptic seizures cannot be badly built !

Received bad news this passed Wednesday, the cancer is back! We don't know where but the blood cancer markers were elevated! My oncologist send me for a bunch of test and CT Scans and Ultrasounds, repeating the blood test tomorrow just to make sure it wasn't a false positive and then we will be discussing the plan of action. Most likely will involve the dreaded chemo. Damn it!

Turtle's Rear Propulsion by Scott Hanko

DSV-3 Turtle / DSV-4 Sea Cliff

The other two 6-foot diameter HY-100 steel spheres originally fabricated for the Alvin were later used for the Navy's Turtle (DSV-3) and her sister ship Sea Cliff (DSV-4), built to a design similar to the Alvin. Turtle had video and still cameras, two six-function hydraulic manipulators, and four large view ports. Sea Cliff had two 7-function hydraulically operated manipulator arms, three 11-cm view ports, and video and still camera systems.

The US Navy’s Deep Submergence Vehicle Turtle (DSV-3) and and its sister submersible Sea Cliff (DSV-4) participated in deep-sea search and recovery, oceanographic research, and underwater archaeology. Turtle and Sea Cliff were classified as manned, non-combatant, untethered submersibles. Each vehicle consists of a 6-foot diameter spherical pressure hull mounted on a metal frame. Inside the hull are the control electronics for navigation, lighting and video, and a life support system capable of supporting a crew of three for 72 hours. Located externally on the frame are the battery and hydraulic, ballast, trim, and propulsion systems. There are also two manipulators that allow the vehicles’ crews to handle and retrieve items on the seafloor.

The vehicles were launched on 11 December 1968 and accepted by the Navy in 1970. In keeping with the Navy’s submersible tradition, they are named for towns in the United States whose names are reminiscent of the ocean or sea life. Turtle was named after Turtletown, Tennessee, while Sea Cliff’s namesake is Sea Cliff, New York.

These DSVs are constructed of a fiberglass hull over the metal crew sphere, batteries and electric motors. The craft have television and still cameras, external lights, short-range sonars, and hydraulic remote-control manipulators. Turtle weighs 21 tons, Sea Cliff weighs 29 tons. These DSVs have an endurance of 8 hours at 1 knot, or 1 hour at 2.5 knots. Due to their limited range and endurance, their mother ship should be certain to remain in the vicinity.

Many submersibles control in-water trim by shifting mercury between chambers at either end of the vehicle. Mercury is also corrosive to aluminum, extremely toxic, requires extraordinary measures to prevent spills, and is difficult to clean up when a spill occurs. The Battelle "tungsten ball trim system" is the replacement trim system for Sea Cliff and Turtle. In this system sintered tungsten balls are the weight medium, stored in two stainless steel tubing coils at either end of the vehicle which are connected by a transfer line. Hydraulic fluid moves the balls through the tubing by means of slip flow past each ball, and plastic balls on either end of the daisy chain of tungsten balls provide a filler in the transfer tube when all the weight is shifted one way or the other.

Both submersibles were initially rated for a depth of 6,500 feet but received upgrades in the early 1980s. While the Turtle was rated at 10,000 foot operating depth, Sea Cliff had her original HY-100 steel crew sphere replaced in 1983 with a titanium sphere capable of 20,000 foot operations. Sea Cliff reached this depth for the first time in March 1985, during a dive in the Middle America Trench off the Pacific coast of Central America. This increase of 1500 meters over Alvin's limits provided access to 37% more of the sea floor. Turtle reached a depth of 10,000 feet on 3 October 1980, and Sea Cliff made it to 20,000 feet on 10 March 1985. At that depth, Sea Cliff was capable of reaching 98 percent of the world’s ocean floor, an area roughly six times that of the surface of the moon. As a result, Sea Cliff enjoyed the distinction of being named flagship for the “Year of the Ocean” in 1985.

Sea Cliff and Turtle were often called upon to locate and recover Navy equipment that was lost at sea. During its 20,000 foot sea trials, Sea Cliff was ordered to the site of a downed Marine Corps Sea Stallion helicopter. Operating at 1,500 feet, Sea Cliff used its manipulators both to retrieve pieces of the aircraft directly and to attach lift lines to other parts. Sections as heavy as 10,000 pounds were recovered. Overall, 61 dives were made, and 80 percent of the aircraft was retrieved. Most importantly, Sea Cliff found and recovered the remains of the aircraft’s four crew members for family burial. Similarly, in 1995, when a Navy swimmer delivery vehicle (SDV) was lost in 814 feet of water off Hawaii, Turtle found and retrieved it in an operation many thought was impossible.

Turtle and Sea Cliff had been based from Navy Landing Ship Dock (LSD), or, more commonly, from Navy oceanographic vessels. Any of them could be transported by C-5 aircraft, although such deployments were uncommon.

Since the end of the Cold War the submersibles Sea Cliff and Turtle were available for limited academic research through a cooperative arrangement between NOAA and the US Navy's Submarine Development Squadron Five in San Diego CA. These vehicles have expanded opportunities for peer-reviewed deep submergence research off the US west coast. Sea Cliff provided the science community with some additional access to the deep sea and permitted observations to depths approaching 6000 meters, a depth range otherwise only available by using ROV Jason or the other tethered vehicles of the National Deep Submergence Facility. This increase of 1500 meters over Alvin's limits provides access to 37% more of the sea floor, which represents an area that is greater than 90% of the surface area presently exposed on the continents.

Following the Navy's decision to decommission Sea Cliff, NAVSEA requested Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to provide a technical assessment and costing of how to best integrate Sea Cliff into the National Deep Submergence Facility. Perhaps the most serious and biggest impediment to integrating Sea Cliff into the US deep submergence program was the lack of an adequate and stable funding base.

Turtle was retired and loaned to the Mystic Aquarium, Institute for Exploration, where it was placed on permanent display. Sea Cliff was turned over to the Office of Naval Research and as of 1999 was being stored at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute while its future was debated

This is using Power Functions Pulse Width Modulated output to control Lego 9 Volt Trains on two Track Circuits with a 9 Volt Train controller.

You need two 9 Volt to PF converter cables to achive this.

Also you need a modded connector with Diodes.

With this you get better Train Control and a lot more pulling power due to the Pulse Width Modulated output from the PF IR Reciever as against the varriable voltage output of the 9 Volt Controller.

The Former Leongatha Mechanics' Institute and Free Library - McCartin Street, Leongatha by raaen99

The former Leongatha Mechanics' Institute and Free Library was designed by H. V. and A. Champion and constructed by Loring and Speers between 1911 and 1912 at 10 McCartin Street, Leongatha.

The original Leongatha Mechanics' Institute was erected in 1891 on the site next to the building's current address where now stands the grand Leongatha Memorial Hall. The present building, consiting of two large rooms and a billiard saloon, was opened by the Honourable J. E. Mackey on the 26th of March 1912. It functioned as a working library, meeting room and billiard hall for working men of the district up until 1982.

The building itself is an interesting one, especially notable for the construction of the walls which were made with river weeds covered with plaster. This latter technique is unique within the local shire, and possibly the State of Victoria. The Mechanics' Institute is also notable for the ceiling in the front room and vestibule which was made from pressed steel. It is also important as a part of a historic streetscape. The building has a cement brick facade with two large windows and a large doorway. Over the doorway and one of the windows are iron canopies. Aesthetically, it is a notable example of early 20th Century Federation design, unusually and effectively employing concrete blocks in Classical detailing. The building was designed to contain a Public Reading Room, Members' Room and Billiard Room. Historically, the building illustrates the development of Mechanic's Institute in Leongatha and their important role in the development of the local community, both in a social and intellectual sense. It is also important for its use as the first Leongatha Public Library. It is an integral and notable part of the highly important group of civic buildings that are an essential part of the historic character of Leongatha.

When the doors finally closed for the Leongatha Mechanics' Institute and Free Library in 1982, it did not spell an end to the building's functionality. The Leongatha and Distric Historical Society was given the use of the building by the Shire of Woorayl in 1983, and it received a National Trust classification in 1984, thus preserving it for future generations to enjoy.

The Mechanics' Institute Movement began in British urban industrial cities in the early 1800s to enable men of the lower classes to improve themselves. A "mechanic" was a person applying skills and technology. During the Nineteenth Century, most towns in Victoria established a Mechanics' Institute or Athenaeum with a library and meeting hall. Common objects of the Mechanics' Institute Movement was to spread useful knowledge and provide rational (non alcoholic) recreation for the community.

Leongatha is a town in the foothills of the Strzelecki Ranges, South Gippsland Shire, Victoria, Australia, located 135 kilometres south-east of Melbourne. The town is the civic, commercial, industrial, religious, educational and sporting centre of the region. The Murray Goulburn Co-operative Co. Limited, is a farmers' co-operative which trades in Australia under the Devondale label, and has a dairy processing plant just north of the town producing milk-based products for Australian and overseas markets. First settlement of the area by Europeans occurred in 1845. The Post Office opened as Koorooman on 1 October 1887 and renamed Leongatha in 1891 when a township was established on the arrival of the railway. The Daffodil Festival is held annually in September. Competitions are held and many daffodil varieties are on display. A garden competition is also held and there are many beautiful examples throughout the provincial town. The South Gippsland Railway runs historical diesel locomotives and railcars between the market and dairy towns of Nyora and Leongatha, passing through Korumburra.
