The future was there... In front of me...
And it looks like a mystic and cold one !
Probably not. This staff member is using goat horns for education. But, I know what I'd do with them!
My Son, serious about baseball. I know you can see the photo shop outline, i didn't work with it as much as I wanted too, but I still love this picture of my son. We are so ready for baseball.

Members of the panel included President of the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), Dr. Agnes Kalibata, Founder and CEO of Root Capital, Willy Foote, and Director General of the
International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), Dr. Shenggen Fan.
Development leaders, public and private sector partners, civil society, diplomats, and entrepreneurs gathered to celebrate shared contributions that have led to dramatic progress in global health, energy, food security, good governance, partnership, and youth engagement.

Photos taken for work of the first in a series of photography workshops for students. The workshops are part of a new arts program for some public schools in Des Moines, and stem for a suggestion I made last spring after reading about a photography program for students in New York City. A colleague and I are helping with the workshops. Each will cover a certain style of photography, and then students are given a disposable film camera to go out and practice. An exhibit of the students' photos will be held in late April.
Three payphones in the Times Square subway station, to which I added tags reading "Past", Present", and "Future".
Im really tired today and i have a rather difficult week of hard work. I really need to rest so i wont write much here.
Hope everyones doing well!

The shot
Standard 3 exposures HDR [-2,0,+2EV] in RAW/ISO100 at f/8 using Canon 18-55mm lens, handheld.
Photomatix
Tonemapped using the detail enhancer.
Photoshop
-Added one layer mask of "curves" to increase the contrast.
-Added one layer mask of "hue/saturation" to decrease the color saturation (overall).
-Sharpened using high pass sharpening (a-ha!).
-Some dodge/burning.

This is a blueprint of Chartres Cathedral. I plan to build a cathedral, and I'm considering using Chartres as inspiration. First, however, I must tear Ulmaris Castle apart.
That's right... I'm looking at building a Castle MOC. GASP!
The red and yellow squares represent baseplates. The question I have before me is whether they are 32x32, or 48x48.
If they're 32x32 it certainly would be an easier build as far as parts are concerned, and I'd be able to expand the overall baseplates used to add steps and other buildings on the grounds. However, I'd have to change the design significantly, since things like the front doors would be too small.
If they're 48x48 i could follow Chartres' design more carefully (though, again, this will only be inspired by, not a model of), but it would be incredibly parts intensive. I also wouldn't really be able to add any sort of grounds to the Cathedral, mainly because I'm unwilling to make something bigger than 2x4 48x48 baseplates.
The media consumption experience is poised to transform, and fast. Technologies that have been tinkered with for years, ranging from virtual and augmented reality to sensors and robotics, are finally on the tipping point of mass commercialization. As the physical and digital worlds converge, how will these technologies shape how people interact with digital media?
On November 18, 2014, NYC Media Lab and Razorfish hosted the second occasion of Future Interfaces, an evening "science fair" on the future of human-computer interaction and digital media. More than 300 guests came to go hands-on with 30 demos from startups and universities to see what's on the verge of commercialization, what’s still in the lab, and what advances will change the nature of media and communications in the future.

On Thursday, July 28, 2016, Fire Commissioner Daniel A. Nigro and Department of Design and Construction Commissioner Dr. Feniosky Peña-Mora broke ground on the site of the future home of FDNY Rescue Company 2, at 1815 Sterling Place in Brooklyn. Rescue Company 2 is one of FDNY’s five rescue companies – specially-trained units that respond to a variety of unique emergencies in addition to fires; including building collapses, high-angle rescues, hazardous materials incidents and water rescues.
The planned 21,000 square-foot facility provides parking for multiple apparatus, as well as ample space for tools and workshops, SCUBA equipment storage, locker rooms, fitness equipment and training. The entire firehouse has been designed with training in mind, including specific areas for trench rescue and confined space rescue training, a room to simulate the smoke-filled environments in which Firefighters operate, and an elevated area that allows Firefighters to train to rappel from the roof of a building to perform a rescue.
The construction plans continue the Department’s goal of sustainable and energy efficient facilities with several green elements incorporated into the design; including a solar water heating system, 100% LED lighting with motion sensors to reduce electricity usage, and a green roof to help mitigate storm water runoff from the site. The total cost for construction and design is $32 million.
Rescue Company 2 was formed in 1925 to establish special rescue capability in the borough of Brooklyn. Originally located at 160 Carlton Avenue, the current home of Rescue Company 2 is at 1472 Bergen Street. The company is staffed daily by five Firefighters and one officer and responds to emergencies throughout the borough, and into neighboring boroughs, as needed.

The future used to be such an abstract idea: the dream was enough. And yet here we are, in our own past futures, searching for what we once yearned and envisioned.
I did a very basic geology course on Future Learn. They wanted people to upload a rock example. This is the one I had. Below are my comments.
The dark coloured looks igneous to me. It has crystals. The light coloured one is sedimentary. In fact it has been sitting on my windowsill, and the UV light seems to have caused the outer layer of the light rock to turn to powder.

Is an oil free future possible? That was the question that brought together leading MEPs, businessmen and Nobel Prize winners on Tuesday 7 December for the STOA science lecture. The Parliament's "Science and Technology Options Assessment" panel consider ways in which Europe could wean itself off oil and whether it would indeed be possible to have a future without it. Climate engineering, electric cars, particles of sulphur and methanol were all mentioned as ways of tackling climate change.
The keynote speakers were Shai Agassi, CEO of the company Better Place and two Nobel Prize laureates in chemistry: Dr Paul Crutzen from Max-Planck-Institute and Prof George Oláh from the University of Southern California. Participants discussed keynote speakers' presentations in a panel discussion and a workshop. The lecture have been moderated by BBC journalist Shirin Wheeler.
Before the event, Vice-President responsible for STOA Silvana Koch-Mehrin (ALDE, DE), STOA Chairman Paul Rübig (EPP, AT), and STOA Vice-chairman Malcolm Harbour (ECR, UK), holded a press conference with invited guests. Press conference and the lecture will be web-streamed.
Throughout the day, a demonstration of electric and hybrid cars, with the possibility of test drives, took place in the Esplanade area in front of Parliament's Altiero Spinelli building (entrance from Place du Luxembourg).
