The Mercedes-Benz 300SL was introduced in 1954 as a two-seat, closed sports car with distinctive gull-wing doors. Later it was offered as an open roadster. It was the fastest production car of its day.
Built by Daimler-Benz AG and internally numbered W198, the fuel-injected road version was based (somewhat loosely) on the company's highly successful competition-only sports car of 1952, the somewhat less powerful carbureted Mercedes-Benz 300SL (W194).
The road model was suggested by Max Hoffman. Being intended for customers in the booming post-war American market it was introduced at the 1954 New York Auto Show, unlike previous models introduced at either the Frankfurt or Geneva shows. In Mercedes-Benz fashion, the "300" referred to the engine's three litre cylinder displacement. The "SL" stood for "Sport Leicht" (Sport Light).
The 300SL was best known for both its distinctive gull wing doors and being the first-ever four-stroke car equipped with a gasoline direct injection. The gull wing version was available from March 1955 to 1957. Production of the roadster ended in 1963 with the introduction of the 230SL.

Propulsion systems engineer Greg Barnett prepares a rocket injector for a hot fire test at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. The injector, made with a new process called 3-D printing or additive manufacturing, was Aug. 22, 2013. The 9.5-inch injector is about half the size of the injector for the RS-25 engine slated to power NASA's Space Launch System. It was made with just two pieces whereas a similar injector made with traditional welding had 115 pieces.

The Pulsar EXA was known in North America as the Pulsar NX and shared many of its parts with the Nissan Pulsar. This version of the Pulsar NX was available from 1983 to 1986 and came with either the fuel injected turbocharged E15ET engine or the carburetted naturally aspirated E16S engine. The Pulsar EXA followed a successful strategy Nissan used in Japan of offering the economical Nissan Sunny in an affordable, youth-oriented two-door coupe, demonstrated by the Nissan Sunny Coupe fastback, which was offered since the Sunny's introduction in 1966. As the Pulsar was a companion to the Nissan Sunny, but offered at a different Japanese Nissan dealership called Nissan Cherry Store, the Pulsar EXA followed in the tradition of the Sunny Coupe.

This Lego miniland-scale Nissan Pulsar EXA Turbo N12 has been created for Flickr LUGNuts' 104th Build Challenge, titled - 'The Science of it All!' - a challenge for any vehicle with a science theme.
The model name 'Pulsar' is an astronomical term. A pulsar (short for pulsating radio star) is a highly magnetized, rotating neutron star that emits a beam of electromagnetic radiation. This radiation can be observed only when the beam of emission is pointing toward Earth (much the way a lighthouse can be seen only when the light is pointed in the direction of an observer), and is responsible for the pulsed appearance of emission. Neutron stars are very dense, and have short, regular rotational periods. This produces a very precise interval between pulses that range roughly from milliseconds to seconds for an individual pulsar. Pulsars are believed to be one of the candidates of high and ultra-high energy astroparticles (see also Centrifugal mechanism of acceleration).

Nothing you see here is real, even though the conversion or the presented background story might be based historical facts. BEWARE!
Some background:
The Supermarine Spitfire is a British single-seat fighter aircraft that was used by the Royal Air Force and many other Allied countries during and after the Second World War. The Spitfire was built in many variants, using several wing configurations, and was produced in greater numbers than any other British aircraft.
The Spitfire was designed as a short-range, high-performance interceptor aircraft by R. J. Mitchell, chief designer at Supermarine Aviation Works (which operated as a subsidiary of Vickers-Armstrong from 1928). In accordance with its role as an interceptor, Mitchell designed the Spitfire's distinctive elliptical wing to have the thinnest possible cross-section; this thin wing enabled the Spitfire to have a higher top speed than several contemporary fighters, including the Hawker Hurricane.
It was the only British fighter to be in continuous production throughout World War II, and remained in service with several air forces around the world for several years. One of its post-war operators was the Lebanese Air Force, or Al Quwwat al-Jawwiya al-Lubnaniyya (لقوات الجوية اللبنانية).
The Lebanese Air Force was established in 1949 under the command of then-Lieutenant Colonel Emile Boustany who later became commander of the army. Soon after its establishment, a number of planes were donated by the British, French, and Italian governments, with additional planes donated by Britain and Italy later that same year.
Britain donated 4 Percival Prentices, 2 World War II-era Percival Proctors and seven trpocailized Supermarine Spitfires (six Mk. XVIe and one TR.8 two-seater), while Italy donated 4 Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 bombers which were mainly used for transportation.
The Mk XVI Spitfire was a WWII design, and the last variant powered by a Merlin engine and based on the original, sleek fuselage. It was basically the same as the Mk IX, except for the engine, a Merlin 266. The Merlin 266 was the Merlin 66 and was built under licence in the USA by the Packard Motor Company. The "2" was added as a prefix in order to avoid confusion with the engines, as they required different tooling.
All Mk XVI aircraft produced (a total of 1,054 Mk XVIs left Castle Bromwich) were of the Low-Altitude Fighter (LF) variety. This was not determined by the length of the wings (clipped wings were fitted to most LF Spitfires), but by the engine, which had been optimised for low-altitude operation. All production Mk XVIs had clipped wings for low altitude work and were fitted with the rear fuselage fuel tanks with a combined capacity of 75 gal. Many XVIs featured cut-down rear fuselages with bubble canopies. On these aircraft the rear fuselage tank capacity was limited to 66 gal.
Because of a slightly taller intercooler and rearranged accessories on the Packard Merlins a new, bulged upper cowling was introduced, a detail that also appeared on late production IXs. For the service in the Middel East region the Lebanese machines received dust filters which considerably changed the aircraft's silhouette.
Armament consisted of two 20 mm Hispano II cannons - each with 120 rpg - and two 0.50 calibre Browning machine guns - each with 250 rpg. 1 × 500 lb (227 kg) bomb could be carried underneath the centre rack, and 1 × 250 lb (114 kg) bomb could be slung under each wing. As a special feature, the wing hardpoints of the Lebanese Spitfires were "wet" so that slipper tanks with 24 gal. each could be carried, compensating for the reduces rear fuselage tank due to the bubble canopy's lowered dorsal spine.
The Lebanese Spitfires only saw a short service, since in 1953, jet fighters were introduced when 16 de Havilland Vampire jets were received, and the first Hawker Hunters arrived in 1959, which replaced the obsolete Spitfires. This initial Hunter batch was followed by more Hunters through 1977.
In 1968, 12 Mirage IIIELs were delivered from France but were grounded in the late 1970s due to lack of funds. In 2000, the grounded Mirages were sold to Pakistan, and four Hunters were even revived in 2008 and served until 2014.

The kit and its assembly:
This whif is based on a simple idea: how did Lebanon's Air Force start? Small countries make a good whif playground, and I guess that nobody has the Lebanon on his/her list...?
Another factor was that I had some Austrian roundels left in store that could, with a green dot, easily be turned into Lebanese markings. So the theme was quickly settled, but the details take some preparation time, so the idea lingered for some time.
After some legwork I deemed a simple Spitfire with a dust filter worthy as an initial aircraft, and the respective Hobby Boss kit of a Spitfire Mk. VB in the stash came handy.
But somehow this was a bit dull, and at the inception of the Lebanon Air Force there were better option available than an early Mk. V. I still wanted a sleek, Merlin-powered Spitfire variant, though, and eventually settled for the Mk. XVI - with its clipped wings and the bubble canopy it has a very distinctive look.
When a "1 Week group Build" at whatifmodelers.com in the Easter Week 2015 was announced, I took this occassion to build the Lebanese Spitfire.
By that time I already had a basis kit at hand (Heller's Spitfire XVI) as well as some donation parts and decals.
Work was strightforward, the Heller kit was built almost OOB. It's a rather old model kit, with raised panel lines, but good detail. The material is thin, so the built item lacks some structural stability! On the other side, this makes some minor mods really easy: I lowered the flaps and moved the tail rudders slightly off of neutral position. I also opened the cockpit "door" on the left side for later static display, even though the cockpit itself was left OOB. It's a bit "flat", but for the kit's age it's pretty good, and the injected canopy is crystal clear and fits perfectly.
I had some major woes concerning the fit for the forward fuselage, and even more when I tried to mate wings and fuselage: there was a 1mm gap(!) on both sides that had to be bridged with putty, and the thin and flexible material did help much...
Other mods concern the propeller (added a styrene tube and a metal axis for free spin), the radiators (these are molded into the lower wings - sounds horrible, but is made very well and thin, I just added some foamed styrene inside as protective mesh because OOB there's just a blank "box" inside) and the kit received a dust filter - a resin piece taken from a Pavla conversion set for Hawker Hurricanes.
Painting and markings:
While a donated RAF Spitfire would certainly have carried a desert paint scheme in Dark Earth/Mid Stone/Azure Blue or a late WWII Dark Green/Ocean Grey/Light Sea Grey livery I settled for something more individual and effective for the rugged Levantine terrain.
In this case I went for the rarely used RAF 'Tropical Scheme' in Mid Stone/Dark Green from above and with Mediterrenean Blue undersides.
The pattern itself is standard RAF, the upper cammo taken down onto the dust filter's flanks was taken over from RAAF Spitfires during WWII (RAF aircraft would carry a higher waterline, with the filter painted completely in the lower surface's tone). Basic paints are RAF Dark Green from Modelmaster and Humbrol 84 (RAF Mid Stone) - rather authentic. But I used Humbrol 87 (Steel Grey) for the undersides - it's rather intense and has a greenish hue, and by far not as dark as the typical RAF Azure Blue or PRU Blue.
Interior surfaces were painted in RAF Cockpit Green (Modelmaster Authentic), while the landing gear and its wells were kept in Aluminum Dope (Humbrol 56).
Decals/markings were puzzled together and improvised. The Lebanese roundels are actually Austrian national markings into which a dark green dot has ben added manually... the fin flash and the roman/arabic codes come from an Xtradecal aftermarket sheet.
Beyond these basic markings I did not add anything flashy - in 1951 things were rather simple,
The kit received a light shading and some dry painting with light grey, plus a light black ink wash. Soot/exhaust stains were created with grinded graphite and around the engine some leaked oil was added with Tamiya's "Smoke", and everything was sealed under a coat of matt acrylic varnish.
I'll admit it's not a spectacular whif, and overall rather simple concerning build and painting. But a proud addition to whatifmodelers.com's "! Week Group Build", even though this was already finished in just three days from sprues to beauty pics...

The estrogen levels have been extremely poor, so Clio made moves to switch to injectable estrogen, which is safer and more effective. And today is the first day she can finally inject! Clio wanted to get help, so we went over to Puppy's and Clio got drunk before being able to handle her first injection. It ended up taking her a couple weeks to learn to do them herself. Clio is not crazy about needles!
NEEDLE GEEKERY: (Imagine this read in the voice of William S. Burroughs.) We do our injections every 5 days, aiming for 7mg of estradiol valerate. That means injecting .35mL, given that our concentration is 20mg/ml. We do intramuscular (IM) injections in the thigh, with a mere 1.0" needle, instead of the recommended 1.5" needle. We get away with the smaller needle due to being slim.
First, we wash our hands in the sink, all fancy-like. Then we gather all 3 (sometimes 2) needles, a band-aid, an alcohol swab, and open *everything* up. Then we decide where to inject. We use the alcohol swab to swab off the tops of the ampules we going to draw from, as well as the part of our body we are going to inject in.
Needle 1 of 3: We inject about 0.4ml air into the ampule to maintain pressure. We draw estrogen using the standard 21g needle that came with our 100-pack of syringes. Lots of air bubbles, as it is suspended in oil, unlike most injectibles that are suspended in water. It's kind of a pain in the ass, and hard to get an exact amount. Especially with the fact that we're going to pop this needle off. Thus, you have to suck what is in the needle tip in, if you don't want to waste the drug you are injecting. It can be like 0.05mL! We pop off our needle.
[Needle 2 of 3: Although we were not currently injecting progesterone at the time of the picture, we later started doing that, so we then would have to pop on a filter needle, because that stuff came from a glass ampule, and you need to draw through a filter needle to ensure that you don't inject microparticles of glass into your muscle, which could give you cysts. We draw our progesterone into the mix, though the amount for P isn't as precise, as it's effects are more indirect, and its price very cheap. But proper injectable progesterone administration requires gluteal injection to last 3.5 days, and just throwing it on top our normal estrogen injection really only keeps us good for 1.0 days. Then, after that, we would pop off the filter needle.]
Needle 3 of 3: We pop on a 25g needle: This is a much thinner, more painless needle. It would be suuuuper annoying to draw through a 25g needle--Like trying to scuba dive using a coffee straw for oxygen. But for injecting in, it's not so bad. It only takes about 5 seconds to inject. Anyway, we pop on an injection needle: 1.0" for IM injection, 1.5" if doing gluteal injection. We shove the needle in. We only aspirate and pull out to check for blood for gluteal injections; for IM thigh injections, it's so statistically unlikely, that we choose not to worry about it. The biggest consequence would be ruining a few day's supply of estrogen. We inject the stuff, and not too fast. We wait a few seconds. We pull the needle out. We grab a band-aid and put it on, occasionally re-using the alcohol swab from earlier, if things get bloody. We dispose of the sharps & blood in a sealable container, drop the rest in the recycle bin, and put everything back into our kit boxes.
Transition Progress at this point: On hormones since 8/1 (4.75 months). Dosage doubled for 1.75 months, which brought T down to 19. But E was still a miserably low 50. So Clio started injections today! Full-time female since 9/15 (3 months). Publicly out as trans since 10/11 (2.5 months). Legally female, federally, since 12/21 (1 day). Boobs sore/growing since 9/4 (3.5 months). Had seen endo/primary therapist 5X, and secondary therapists 8X. Weight down to 142lbs (55 down from 197). Hair removal includes 25 electrolysis treatments totaling 19.25 hours; 27 laser hair removal sessions (45 area treatments: 14/13/12/10 mouth/goatee/face/neck, 7 leg/chest/armpit, 5 Brazilian/ear); and bi-weekly at-home IPL on arms since 6/17 (6 months). Latisse for eyelash lengthening since 4/17 (8 months). 2 dental implants. Pierced ears. Dyed/layered hair (no haircuts since 1/2015--2.75yrs). Female wardrobe replacement was up to 419 items. Total transition expenditures were over $13,000 at this point.
