Hacking is a factor in democratic processes that must be addressed - fake news, invasion of privacy, ... who could count the wys? Technology change must be a part of the future evolution of democracy. Right now Electronic voting machines count about 87% of the votes cast in America today. But are they reliable? Are they safe from tampering? From a current congressional hearing to persistent media reports that suggest misuse of data and even outright fraud, concerns over the integrity of electronic voting are growing by the day. And if the voting process is not secure, neither is America's democracy. Democracy must evolve!
The near wagon is one that I have shot before. It is a Hack Passenger Wagon c. 1862 that is in the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History collection. It was manufactured by Abbot-Downing Co. Concord, New Hampshire
This four passenger wagon is the smallest of the Hack Passenger Wagons. The lighter versions of the East were called Concord Coaches. The heavy version, suited for the rough conditions of the West, was often called a "mud wagon" or "the poor man's Concord". The leather suspension system gave a ride that was smooth by the day's standards.
This coach belonged to Petra Vela Kenedy, wife of Mifflin Kenedy. Mr. Kenedy built a ranching empire in South Texas in the mid-19th century. By the time of Mrs. Kenedy's death in 1885, the ranch comprised 390,000 acres. This coach was most likely the preferred mode of transportation for Mrs. Kenedy, who traveled frequently from the La Parra Ranch in Kenedy County to the Kenedy home on the bluff in Corpus Christi, Texas.

#295/365 A snapshot candid I took this morning. My son is almost 3 1/2. Several weeks ago I made a comment to my wife that at this age my daughter was already proficient with the mouse and keyboard, but my son shows no interest or ability (boys I figured). Well in the last 2 weeks he's been so into playing Toontown Online (from watching his sister). He has gotten so good at it I can now call the short bus and tell them they will not be needed. This was taken shortly after he woke up. I think it's cute although the downside is I get to use my computer less.

After a busy day sorting out a hacked email account thought this would be a good idea, not realising how time consuming this would be to process

Iris is spunky hacker who loves using her custom multi-function prosthetic to cause chaos for the crime syndicates and corrupt law enforcement in the Layered City.
Iris prefers to use her hacking and programming skills to support Ode's team from the background. Iris has spent months implanting malware in the Layered City's computer system, and she uses the holo-computer built into her arm to exercise near absolute control over the city's many automated functions.
When she is forced to engage in combat, Iris has an emergency set of Phase-Tech claws and a Plasma beam emitter built into her arm.
Iris fills an invaluable role on Ode's team, and her upbeat attitude and general positivity keep her team's spirit high. While she appears to support Ode's goal of ridding the Layered City of corruption, it is unclear if she has an ulterior motive. She is incredibly secretive about her past and how she became such a proficient hacker without detection.
Build Notes:
This one was an adventure. The concept for "Hacker Girl" started with the mechanical arm with the computer built in. The colors and hair for her changed a bunch when I was working on her (RIP purple shoes). A lot of the decisions of the appearance of this character were made based on parts limitations (the crop top for example was because I ran out of black curved slopes half way through building the shirt). The end result is really flexible and can hold lots of dynamic poses. As always, face and some of the hair design by Eero Okkonen. I promise I'll quit ripping off his stuff eventually.
The great thing about the company work train is is still sports a caboose. In this case it is an ex-CN Hack that brings up the rear.
Wanted an easy project a few days ago, so I whipped up this little owl using fingering weight yarn and he ended up being about 2.5 inches tall including the ear tufts. The chair was made from a small ikea bowl and the bottom of an ikea soap dish. My Haru Casting Adori is sitting in the chair in the previous photo.
The free pattern for the owl can be found here: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/easy-crochet-owl
The idea for the chair came from here (but my chair is smaller): www.apartmenttherapy.com/ikea-bowls-make-excellent-diy-do...
The main problem with these 15-metre coaches is the outswing at the back end, and Plaxton is now offering a solution to this issue by removing the rearmost portion of the body, which is really only empty space underneath - a sort of "cut-and-shut" job. The engine area is unaffected, as the chassis was extended in the first place to take the extra body length. The only loss is the floor-mounted toilet at the rear, which is not an issue for these mid-life vehicles. Andrews of Tideswell had the first one of these in 2014, and this is the only other one I have encountered, almost on my doorstep. Travel Master of Carrington had run this one for two years in original condition, and still in Megabus blue, but it turned up at York racecourse in July fully repainted - and a bit shorter ! It is still a 65-seater, though.

Miles and I had a cheery trip to the Secret Nuclear Bunker at Hack Green a couple of weeks ago. Originally a Starfish site in the Second World War to decoy attacks from Crewe, then a radar site it became the site of an R6 hardened Regional Seat of Government Bunker. In time of nuclear war from the 1960's to the 1990's, the county of Chester would have been governed from this place. Situated in countryside south west of Nantwich, it was connected to a hardened communication network with other RGHQ's and central government. Many people would have lived and worked in the semi buried bunker.
Abandonned in 1992 as a dividend of the end of the Cold War it was opened in 1998 as a tourist attraction and house a large collection of Cold War relics and a number of deactivated nuclear weapons.

The Matrix is still one of my favourite films. In the downtime over Christmas and New Year I was inspired to shoot this strobist selfie because my brother had so many old computer monitors lying around. I was travelling light with just one speedlight, a set of wireless triggers, but no filters or other light modifiers and so had to improvise.
Strobist info:
The key light was a Nikon SB28 at 1/64th power placed on the desk behind the laptop and the main screen, pointing up at the subject. An offcut from a green/blue plastic bag was used to provide the greenish tinge and the lenshood of my 24-70mm lens was used as a snoot to limit the spill. The computer screens actually provided very little light. Triggered wirelessly using a Yongnuo YN-622N trigger

I know MOCpages doesn't mean much to a lot of you anymore, but I know a lot of you had your start in the LEGO community there. I don't know what I did to piss somebody off, but I seem to be in someone's crosshairs. For now, it's still civil in so much as that MOCs have not been deleted, but they changed the e-mail and the password. I do have a way to hack my way back in, but you know, it's just not worth it right now.
And of course it's right in the middle of the Eight Piece Building Challenge which I have helped spread the word about. I also recently helped someone to upload creations to the site. Yeah, the site is broken, hence why I am being hacked, but far be it from me to try and bolster activity for those that actually want to populate the site.
A few weeks ago, I had been removed from the Eight Piece Building Challenge group after sharing the news of its return. About a week ago, I gave Ben Cossy a proper critique on his latest MOC, Breathless, which is beautiful by the way, but I wanted to give him some fair opinions and suggestions for improvements; that comment was deleted not of Ben's or my own volition. And just a few days ago, my e-mail had been changed, but the password had not so I was able to get right back in. Clearly I am being watched and they've retaliated with more action. I never made a big stink about it because of how quickly I was able to get back to work, but now I can't even write comments in groups telling people what's happened.
With the news about Flickr's photo limitations for free users, I planned to use MOCpages now more than ever until a new platform arose. I already used MOCpages a lot to store all my photos and go in more depth with details, but it's no longer a safe place. Luckily, I'm a hoarder and have backlogs on all my photos, but not all the text and details. If the hack goes further, all that information is gone. But I guess the plan to use it even more is out the window.
Like I said, I do have a way where I could gain control again, but the hacker knows the same tricks, so it would just be a never ending loop. I could even create a new account with a different e-mail, but I imagine the second I was found out, that, too, would be hacked. So I guess this is good-bye to MOCpages for all those that want to see whatever is left. I'm not deleting anything. I'll leave being a dick to the dick that likes to hack people. Here's a LINK to my homepage.
