The latest "big boy's toy" for the Indian Coast Guard is seen here in the Willem dock at the port of Antwerp. The Griffon 8000TD hovercraft was manufactured in Southampton, United Kingdom and is parked here as it waits for the vessel that will take it to its new operator. That will probably be a Chipolbrok vessel as was the case with its sister vessel H-189 on 25 August 2012
Having just left the WE Energies coal dock. The H LEE WHITE departs Milwaukee Wi. for the open waters of Lake Michigan. People are slowly starting to pull their yachts and sailboats out of the water in anticipation of the weather to come.

Just picked up the new H&Y Magnetic Filter Holder for the M.Zuiko 7-14mm F2.8 from PhotoSphere.Sg in Singapore. This product is so simple, you wondered why nobody has ever done this before.
The holder is all metallic and fit perfectly to the lens by using a clamp with foam gasket around and in the front, there are four teeth that will go into the petal lens hood of the lens.
If you already have a 100mm filter system, you can use your existing filters by just putting the magnetic frame around your filters.
To use the filter you just put it onto the holder. Technically, you can stack as many filters as you want, however, for the 7-14mm I was able to use it up to 3 filters without any vignette. Furthermore, when you are using a graduated filter you can turn the filter up to about 40º and still not get any vignette.

Humaria hemisphaerica (Wiggers: Fr.) Fuckel, syn.: Peziza hemisphaerica F.H.Wigg.
Glazed Cup, Hairy Fairy Cup, DE: Halbkugeliger Borstling
Slo.: polobla kosmatinka
Dat.: Sept. 07. 2014
Lat.: 46.36846 Long.: 13.74757
Code: Bot_834/2014_DSC3758
Habitat: locally north oriented mountain slope, mixed wood, locally Picea abies dominant, calcareous ground, among needles and leaf litter, ground without greenery; full shade, humid place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 6-8 deg C, elevation 800 m (2.625 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: forest soil under Picea abies canopies.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, lower Trenta village, just above the beginningof alpine trail to Planina Lepoč, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC
Comments: Habitat and habitus of these cup fungi fit very well to Humaria hemisphaerica. Also spore shape, surface and gutules do so. The species is a common one. At least in my literature I can't find an acceptable alternative determination. However, spore and asci dimensions do not correspond to data from literature. I don't know whether the differences observed are acceptable (data from literature have quite large scatter too) or this find represents another, probably rarer and seldom described species.
Growing in a few groups of more than 30 fruit bodies in an area of about 2 x 2 m; apparently associated whit Lycoperdon perlatum. Some cups seemed as attached to this fungus (see Fig.3) and I didn't find a single cup more than a quarter of meter away of more than ten fruitbodies of Lycoperdon. Pilei diameter 8 - 22 mm, like translucent, pearly inside; taste and smell indistinctive; SP too faint to allow color determination.
Spores warty with two large gutules each. Spore dimensions: 25.4 [27.1 ; 27.8] 29.6 x 13.8 [14.5 ; 14.8] 15.5 μ, Q = 1.7 [1.8 ; 1.9] 2; N = 37 ; C = 95%, Me = 27.5 x 14.7 μ; Qe = 1.9. Asci dimensions: 205.4 [231.4 ; 244.8] 270.8 x 13 [15.4 ; 16.6] 19 μ, Q = 12.9 [14.5 ; 15.4] 17; N = 24; C = 95%, Me = 238.1 x 16 μ; Qe = 14.9. Hairs septated. Dimensions: 339 [505 ; 621] 787 x 13 [15.2 ; 16.8] 19 μ, Q = 20.1 [31.6 ; 39.6] 51.1; N = 15; C = 95%, Me = 563.5 x 16 μ; Qe = 35.6.

H.G. PETER
Wonder Woman
Harry G. Peter (March 8, 1880 – 1958) was a newspaper illustrator and cartoonist born in California and long resident in San Francisco. His most lasting work came when the 61-year-old artist brought William Moulton Marston's heroine Wonder Woman to comic book pages. Peter would stay with the feature until his death in 1958.
Harry G. Peter was the first artist of the 'Wonder Woman' comic, that started in 1941 at All-American Comics (later DC). Written by the psychologist Charles Moulton (William Moulton Marston), 'Wonder Woman' was about an Amazon princess who came to America after saving an American pilot. In her alter ego as Diana Prince, she served in the military and fought against the Germans.
'Wonder Woman' was based on Greek mythology and had the beauty of Aphrodite, the strength of Hercules, the wisdom of Athena, and the speed of Mercury. After Moulton's death in 1947, Harry G. Peter continued the comic until his death in 1958. It was later continued by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito. Peter has also illustrated the 'Man-o-Metal' feature.
HARRY G. PETER Was the first artist to work on WONDER WOMAN, beginning in 1941, and continuing until his death in 1958. H. G. PETER Is best known as the first artist for the Wonder Woman character. He regularly penciled her stories from 1941 to 1957. He also briefly worked on the Wonder Woman comic strip from 1945 to 1946. He began his art career doing illustrations for newspapers in 1906 and later for Judge magazine.

My love. We've been married for almost 33 years now.
Took this shot with a 40+ year old manual focus lens from the film era. Works pretty well with the focus peaking of the Samsung. There's something about these old film lenses...

Historic Environment Record for H BUILDING, Malvern, UK
The building, having military purposes and designated locally as H building, sits on a former Government Research site in Malvern, Worcestershire at Grid Ref SO 786 447. This site was the home of the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) from 1946. It has been owned by QinetiQ since 2001 and is in the process (October 2017 to February 2018) of being sold for redevelopment.
This unique building has at its heart a ‘Rotor’ bunker with attached buildings to house radar screens and operators as well as plant such as emergency generators. Twenty nine Rotor operational underground bunkers were built in great urgency around Britain to modernise the national air defence network, following the Soviet nuclear test in 1949. Two factors make H building’s construction and purpose unique; this prototype is the only Rotor bunker built above ground and it was the home to National Air Defence government research for 30 years.This example of a ROTOR bunker is unique instead of being buried, it was built above ground to save time and expense, as it was not required to be below ground for its research purpose.
H Building was the prototype version of the Rotor project R4 Sector Operations Centre air defence bunkers. Construction began in August 1952 with great urgency - work went on 24 hours a day under arc lights. The main bunker is constructed from cross bonded engineering bricks to
form walls more than 2 feet thick in a rectangle approximately 65ft x 50ft. The two internal floors are suspended from the ceiling. The original surrounding buildings comprise, two radar control and operator rooms, offices and machine plant.
The building was in generally good order and complete. The internal layout of the bunker remains as originally designed. The internal surfaces and services have been maintained and modernised over the 55 years since its construction (Figure 3). The first floor has been closed over.
There are some later external building additions around the periphery to provide additional accommodation.
In parts of the building the suspended floor remains, with 1950s vintage fittings beneath such as patch panels and ventilation ducts.
The building has been empty since the Defence Science & Technology Laboratories [Dstl] moved out in October 2008
As lead for radar research, RRE was responsible for the design of both the replacement radars for the Chain Home radars and the command and control systems for UK National Air Defence.
Project Rotor was based around the Type 80 radar and Type 13 height finder. The first prototype type 80 was built at Malvern in 1953 code named Green Garlic. Live radar feeds against aircraft sorties, were fed into the building to carry out trials of new methods plotting and reporting air activity
A major upgrade of the UK radar network was planned in the late 1950s – Project ‘Linesman’ (military) / ‘Mediator’ (civil) – based around Type 84 / 85 primary radars and the HF200 height finder. A prototype type 85 radar (Blue Yeoman) was built adjacent to H Building in 1959. live radar returns were piped into H Building.
Subsequently a scheme to combine the military and civil radar networks was proposed. The building supported the research for the fully computerised air defence scheme known as Linesman, developed in the 1960s, and a more integrated and flexible system (United Kingdom Air Defence Ground Environment or UKADGE) in the 1970s.
The building was then used for various research purposes until the government relinquished the main site to QinetiQ in 2001. Government scientists continued to use the building until 2008. Throughout its life access was strictly controlled by a dedicated pass sytem.
Notable civil spin-offs from the research in this building include the invention of touch screens and the whole UK Civil Air Traffic Control system which set the standard for Europe.
Chronology
1952 - Construction work is begun. The layout of the bunker area duplicates the underground version built at RAF Bawburgh.
1953 - Construction work is largely completed.
1954 - The building is equipped and ready for experiments.
1956-1958 - Addition of 2nd storey to offices
1957-1960 - Experiments of automatic tracking, novel plot projection systems and data management and communications systems tested.
1960-1970 - Project Linesman mediator experiments carried out including a novel display technique known as a Touch screen ( A World First)
TOUCHSCREEN
A team led by Eric Johnson in H building at Malvern. RRE Tech Note 721 states: This device, the Touch Sensitive Electronic Data Display, or more shortly the ‘Touch Display’, appears to have the potential to provide a very efficient coupling between man and machine. (E A Johnson 1966). See also patent GB 1172222.
Information From Hugh Williams/mraths
1980-1990 - During this period experiments are moved to another building and H building is underused.
1990-1993 - The building was re-purposed and the bunker (room H57) had the first floor closed over to add extra floor area.
2008- The bunker was used until late 2008 for classified research / Joint intelligence centre
2019 - Visual Recording of the buildings interior by MRATHS. Be means of a LIDAR scan and photographs being taken. The exterior was mapped with a drone to allow a 3D Image of the building to be created via Photogrammetry. This was created in Autodesk Photo Recap.
2020 - Building demolished as part of the redevelopment of the site.
