How did I get here to this miserable place we call war?
I had nothing to do with it whatsoever.
I was a farmer in Naples living a peaceful life....
But now that has changed; I am no longer a man of peace. I am now but a pawn of the Duce and his will to fight...
How...
How did Private Montello get trapped in this 'World War'?
An introduction of my sig - fig for my new LEGO World War Role playing Group. Enjoy! :-)

Another headshot for you guys, I really like headshots, I think the closer you can get the better...

I have been starting off small and working my way around the face, I know how to changes the lips and on this image I changed her lips to a light pink. On this image I concentrated on the eyes a bit more. I added a bit of eye liner to start with, then I went to the top of her eyes and added some shadow. I then I given this awesome set of eye lash brushes and I added an eye lash on the bottom of her eye.
Once I did that I took it back into lightroom and just added and tidy a few things up.

A short tutorial on how to use lights in Stud.io.
There's a built in feature that makes the "Transparent Light Orange" color glow.
From the tests I did, it is better to use a dedicated piece for the glowing part, like if it was a bulb in real life, like in this photo.
I used a normal post, with a transparent clear glass, and inside it I put a small "bulb" in Transparent Light Orange.
There's only an issue, the Transparent Light Orange is actually orange when rendered, and will cast an orange light.
You can change its color (for rendering only) by editing the color in the file named "settings_v1.xml" (make sure to make a backup copy beforehand).
I can’t copy xml formatted text in here, so you can find a screenshot in this album, showing the configuration needed in Stud.io.
There should also be a different way to do this, but I could not make it work as I'd like, so far.
But this works pretty well for me.
Better see on black and big format

"How can I go forward when I don't know which way Im facing?
How can I go forward when I don't know which way to turn?
How can I go forward into something I 'm not sure of?
Oh no, oh no.
How can I have feeling when I don't know if it's a feeling?
How can I feel something if I just don't know how to feel?
How can I have feelings when my feelings have always been denied?
O oh no, oh no.
How can I give love when I don't know what it is Im giving?
How can I give love when I just don't know how to give?
How can I give love when love is something I ain't never had?
Oh no, oh no.
You know life can be long
And you got to be strong
And the world is so tough
Sometimes I feel I've had enough.
Oh no, oh no.
How can we go forward when I don't know which way we're facing?
How can we go forward when we don't know which way to turn?
How can we go forward into something we're not sure of?"
How? by John Lennon
I first posted this shot 14 years ago, and I was wondering what the reaction to it would be today.
When I was in high school in the early ‘50s, an urban high school in Springfield, Massachusetts, I was on the high school rifle team, and the rifle range was in the basement of one of the other high schools in the city. And, living in a nearby rural town, I used to bring my rifle to school with me on the school bus and store it in my locker. Today, if a school kid even uttered the word, “gun”, he’d be expelled, handcuffed, imprisoned, and the media would label him as a terrorist! Yet, in those days, my rifle coach used to hang my targets on the bulletin board in the hallway of the school, and shooting well, just as playing basketball well, was a thing to be proud of. Guns were easy to buy then (you could even buy them through the mail), and crime was much less of a problem than it is today. Do you think maybe guns aren’t really the problem after all? I wonder if hanging this target – 50 rounds fired with a Colt Officer’s Model .45 - up on Flickr will get me ostracized…

懷孕期間睡覺腳會抽筋?
How to Deal with Pregnancy Leg Cramps
Cramps During Early Pregnancy 懷孕期腿部抽筋，是許多孕媽咪在懷孕中後期的痛苦夢魘，
建議孕媽咪平時多攝取高鈣食物、多運動、多按摩腿部肌肉，可減輕「肌肉痙攣」的不適現象。
偶爾半夜腿部抽筋中斷了睡眠，也是懷孕中、後期許多人的痛苦經驗。原因可能與局部血液局部循環、酸鹼度或電解質有關。突然抽筋的因應方法是：將腳伸直，腳趾與腳掌緩緩彎向頭部方向，抽筋現象就會緩解，或由他人幫忙局部熱敷與按摩都有效果。
傳統上會建議從食物中加強鈣質的攝取，或補充紐萊特鈣片加牛奶、起司或小魚乾等等。有人認為牛奶中也富含磷的成份，大大的干擾到鈣質吸收，而建議補充不含磷的鈣片。注意下肢保暖與儘量左側睡來避免循環不佳的因素，白天把握機會多休息，以減少肌肉有過多的乳酸堆積。
抽筋學名為「肌肉痙攣」，懷孕期抽筋，常由以下3個原因引起：
懷孕抽筋原因●體重增加：導致小腿肌肉負擔加重，使得腓腸肌（俗稱小腿肚）和腳部肌肉發生疼痛性收縮抽筋。
懷孕抽筋原因●脹大的子宮影響血液循環：使小腿肌肉出現抽筋反應。
懷孕抽筋原因●缺鈣：胎兒需要孕婦大量的鈣質，孕婦若鈣質補充不足，易造成血鈣濃度過低，引起神經傳導失常，導致抽筋現象。
腿部抽筋的處理方法︰
懷孕期間發生腳抽筋時，可以試試以腳跟著地，或平躺時，用腳跟抵住牆壁；伸直抽筋的腿部（要伸直膝蓋，勿讓膝蓋彎曲），將腳掌向上彎，伸展小腿；同時，把腳掌向膝蓋的方向往上彎曲，將腳扳往自己身體方向下壓，讓小腿筋有被拉直的感覺。
按摩及熱敷抽筋的腿部肌肉，並小心地以踝部進行繞圈運動，也可以很快減輕抽筋的疼痛症狀。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法：
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●建議孕婦們平時多攝取高鈣食物，懷孕中期的鈣質每天應補充到1200mg，且多曬太陽，幫助體內維生素D3的合成，有助於鈣質的吸收。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●睡覺時，盡量保持下肢溫暖，並採側臥姿勢，也可以減輕症狀。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●避免長時間步行或久站，站立或行走30分鐘，建議休息10分鐘。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●休息時，可將腿部稍微抬高，腳趾盡量向上伸展，也可以幫助小腿後部肌肉舒張，減輕腫脹、不舒服的感覺。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●時常按摩抽筋的腳部肌肉，也能幫助血液及淋巴循環。建議可以先足浴10分鐘，再進行按摩。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●若是因靜脈曲張或是水分滯留所造成，則白天要穿上彈性襪，有助於排除或減少腿抽筋的頻率。
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●每天要有充足的睡眠，懷孕後期的孕媽咪睡覺時很難保持固定姿勢，盡量以感到舒適的睡姿幫助睡眠！
懷孕預防腿部抽筋的方法●經常及適度的運動，可以減輕孕吐、腳抽筋、腰痠背痛、靜脈曲張及下肢水腫等症狀，並可以幫助睡眠，減輕懷孕過程所造成的不適。
比較溫和的運動，如散步、踩固定式腳踏車、游泳等，運動量以每週最少3次、每次20至30分鐘為宜。
a trolley bus exits the hataitai bus tunnel. built in 1907 connecting the village with the town of wellington for trams, these modern designline trolleys seem like spaceships in comparison with their LED displays, fibreglass bodywork, and air conditioning.
unlike the older trolley busses, when the power is down these can move under their own power with a modern battery pack.
The hoarding on the side of the bus is a reminder of the date of the analogue TV phase-out on 29 September this year - 'going digital'. the end of an era, really.
the abutments have become increasingly more tagged recently. not a lot of art going on there, sadly.
If you’re following a keto diet, learning how to read nutrition labels is absolutely essential.
Full Guide: www.castironketo.net/blog/read-nutrition-labels-for-keto/
This guide will teach you what to look for on food labels, enabling you to make smarter, low-carb choices without falling for marketing tricks.
The keto diet is a high-fat, moderate-protein, and low-carbohydrate eating plan designed to shift your body into a state of ketosis. To maintain ketosis, you typically need to consume fewer than 20 to 50 grams of net carbohydrates per day.
On a glittering autumn morning how better to arrive than with one's head out of a train window? The cool rush of air in one's face, the sense of looking out from a castle floating a little above the world, the agreeable motion of the carriage and its sideways lunge as, with metallic din, it takes the points and glides into its allocated platform. A life that had such moments in it was not entirely unhappy.
This was taken a few hundred yards east of Plymouth Station on Saturday 12th October 1974. Some trains on the Penzance-London service carried additional carriages between Plymouth and Paddington. The "Western" had advanced up the line with the extra carriages that were to be attached to the train it would then work forward, the 0835 ex Penzance. My train was the 0800 from Bristol, also with a Western up front. Apart from steam haulage, what more could you want?
Tiffany, IG: @tiffany.villarreal, amazing Los Angeles based singer, and I had another great session over a couple of weeks ago. Our playground was a few different wall art spots along Melrose Avenue, including that @Instagram popular Hello wall. However, it turned out that it was replaced with a new piece of wall art a month ago. Across the little street from it, though, this very simple pink wall with the empty parking lot (early Saturday morning) caught my eye. I couldn’t pass up a great opportunity to take advantage of her red overall outfit. Because the wall art is simple, it was all about her expressions and postures, and I loved that. How to strike a cool pose came naturally to this awesome singer.
How to Choose a Reputable Pilates Centre
Deciding to join a Pilates centre is an excellent decision. Regular Pilates sessions will not only strengthen your body and make you more flexible but it will improve your health and keep you supple.
There are many Pilates centres sprouting up all over the place because of the popularity of this training method. However, all Pilates centres are not created equal. Some are much better than others. This article will show you how to separate the wheat from the chaff.
There are a few things that you must be aware of and take into consideration when choosing a Pilates centre.
Proximity to your home or workplace
While this may seem like common sense, many people join swanky Pilates centres that are out of the way just because the centre looks good or is popular. The most important factor to consider is convenience.
You will be much less likely to skip workout sessions if the centre is somewhere close to your home or your workplace. You could easily train and go home. Choose a reputable centre that is nearby and easily accessible.
Appearance of facility
A good Pilates centre will look clean and pleasant. Reputable Pilates centres pay attention to detail and customer experience. If the Pilates centre looks messy, grimy or dirty, you should run the other way and not look back.
Class size
Ideally, you should join a Pilates centre where the classes are not overcrowded. In this way, the instructor will have time to check on each member’s form and correct them.
It’s also more serene and pleasant to train in a class that has sufficient space to breathe and move around freely.
Instructors’ qualifications
You should check that the Pilates instructors in the centre are qualified, experienced and accredited. There are many Pilates centres run by instructors who lack the proper certification. This can actually be dangerous because they will not be able to correct your poor technique and you may injure yourself.
Number of instructors
The number of instructors the centre has makes a difference too. There must be sufficient instructors to handle all the classes. You do not want a centre where 1 instructor is conducting 8 classes a day. He or she will be exhausted and not be able to give their best. Some Pilates centres try to cut costs by hiring the minimum number of instructors possible.
Other points to note would be how comfortable you feel with your trainer and the pace of the class. Women may prefer female instructors. Men may prefer female instructors too, but that’s another story.
What matters is that you find one that motivates you and is able to guide you properly. You may join a beginners class and as time progresses, you may go into the intermediate and advanced stages. Check if your instructor will follow you in the classes as you progress… or will some other instructor take over.
Make sure your Pilates centre caters to people at different stages of learning. It would be a mistake to join a centre that lumps beginners and advanced practitioners together and expects the beginners to just do what they can.
There should also be classes staggered at different times of the day. This will allow you some choice, in case your schedule is tight. The equipment provided by the centre such as mats, resistance bands, etc. should be in good condition.
Before signing up for a complete package, ask the Pilates centre if they offer a free trial class so that you can get a feel of the class and see if it’s something you will enjoy. In most cases, if you adhere to the pointers given above, you should find a reputable centre that will foster in you a love for Pilates that will grow with time. You’ll make Pilates a part of your life and never look back. healtylife.digitalexplorer.web.id/choose-reputable-pilate...
I was on my way back to the hotel, it was really crowded, out of no where I saw that guy sitting. I stood there for 15 mins and no one stopped or even looked at him as if he was isolated, living in his own world. Just for a moment I thought what if i was at his place, how would it feel. Life goes on to window of clarity and reality.
You can
die for it---
an idea,
or the world. People
have done so,
brilliantly,
letting
their small bodies be bound
to the stake,
creating an unforgettable
fury of light. But
this morning,
climbing the familiar hills
in the familiar
fabric of dawn, I thought
of China,
and India
and Europe, and I thought
how the sun
blazes
for everyone just
so joyfully
as it rises
under the lashes
of my own eyes, and I thought
I am so many!
What is my name?
What is the name
of the deep breath I would take
over and over
for all of us? Call it
whatever you want, it is
happiness, it is another one
of the ways to enter fire.

Thanks guys for all your help, laughs and company and Scott for braving the waves :) I think everyone was more than happy with what was achieved in short time and happy with the early Christmas lists that some made starting and ending with Lee's ;)
Their work can be seen here, well worth it.

“How do you know, when you think blue — when you say blue — that you are talking about the same blue as anyone else?
You cannot get a grip on blue.
Blue is the sky, the sea, a god’s eye, a devil’s tail, a birth, a strangulation, a virgin’s cloak, a monkey’s ass. It’s a butterfly, a bird, a spicy joke, the saddest song, the brightest day.
Blue is sly, slick, it slides into the room sideways, a slippery trickster.
This is a story about the color blue, and like blue, there’s nothing true about it. Blue is beauty, not truth. ‘True blue’ is a ruse, a rhyme; it’s there, then it’s not. Blue is a deeply sneaky color.”
