I took this photograph during an excorted visit to Bass Rock which is home to over 150,000 gannets at the peak of the season. This bird was returning to it's nest with some new bedding material, ie kelp.
Gannet adults are large and bright white with black wingtips. They are distinctively shaped with a long neck and a long pointed beak, long pointed tail, and long pointed wings. At sea they flap and then glide low over the water, often travelling in small groups. They feed by flying higher and circling before plunging into the sea. It breeds in significant numbers at only a few localities and so is an Amber List species.
The biggest mainland breeding colony ia at RSPB's Bempton Cliffs. There are two mainland colonies - at Bempton and Troup Head, Scotland. Also there are large island colonies on St Kilda, the Northern Isles; Bass Rock in Scotland and Grassholm in Wales.
The gannetts arrive at their colonies from January onwards and leave between August and October, with many migrating as far as the West coast of Africa.
The lower ledges of the Bass Rock are also home to shags, guillemots and razorbills, with seals hauling up on the rocks below. Bass Rock itself was formed 320 million years ago and is the remains of one of many active volcanoes in the area. With an incredible past, it has played a key role throughout the history of Scotland - a religious retreat during early Christianity; fortress and prison in the time of the Covenanters and Jacobites; and a strategic stronghold during the times of the Scottish and English wars. Notably it has been owned by the Hamilton-Dalrymple family for the last 300 years.
Craddock was raised the youngest of 13 children. His parents worked for Cone Mills, mostly at the White Oak plant. The family lived close to the bone.
“We never had anything,” he says, “but we never went hungry and we were all close.”
“We had an outhouse,” he says, chuckling. “Dolly Parton asked one time, 'Crash, did you have a two-holer or a one-holer?’ I said, 'Dolly, we couldn’t afford a two-holer.’ ”
The family shared a love of music and performing. “My daddy could tap dance, buck dance and he’d call figures on Saturday night,” Craddock says. “One sister played the piano, and another sister could sing.”
An older brother, Clarence, was a guitarist, and he taught siblings Billy and Ronald how to play and sing. When Billy was 12, Clarence took him aside and said, “Boy, I’m gonna tell you one thing — that guitar’s gonna make you a lot of money.”
As a youth, Craddock was captivated by country music. He and a friend would walk five miles along what is now Summit Avenue to downtown Greensboro to see country stars perform at the National Theater. He saw the Wilburn Brothers, Ernest Tubb, Eddie Arnold, Jimmy Dickens, Carl Smith, Sonny James and other legends in their prime.
“When I went to see those country shows,” he says, “as soon as they’d start to play the steel guitar, the hair would stand up on my neck and it wouldn’t go down till the last song was done.”
In 1957, Billy and Ronald formed the Four Rebels, a vocal group, with two friends. They performed at Fred Koury’s Plantation Supper Club — the upscale place for dinner and live entertainment in Greensboro during that time.
“We’d do 13 songs a night,” says Craddock, who sang lead, “and 12 of them were by Elvis Presley!”
He subsequently went solo, cutting his first records for the Sky Castle and Colonial labels (based in Greensboro and Chapel Hill, respectively). Koury, a local club owner and entrepreneur with connections in the record industry, helped Craddock land a deal with Columbia Records in 1959.
He recorded material in a rockabilly style for the label, scoring a minor national hit with “Boom Boom Baby.”
It was at Columbia that he was formally christened Crash Craddock. Though the nickname suggests some kind of kinship with car racing, it actually came from his days as a halfback on Rankin High School’s football team. They called him “Crash” for his ability to crash through any hole in the defense.
“We’d leave the huddle, and they’d hit me on the butt and say, 'Let’s get ’em, Crash,’ ” he says. “When the line opened something up, I was gone because I only weighed 135 pounds and couldn’t afford to get hit.”
I'm going to be using this Moleskine to help me study for the boards. Right now, it's completely empty, but I'm going to start jotting down some quick study notes over this break.

Detail of molten metal being poured in the MSE Advanced Lab in the Herbert H. Dow Engineering Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Friday afternoon, February 17, 2023. The floor of the lab where the pour will happen has a layer of sand on it to protect it in case of spills.
The Advanced Lab is home to MSE 360, a course about structural materials used for building everything from vehicles to buildings and beyond. In the first half of the course, students learn standard alloys before moving into design. MSE 360 is an opportunity to gain experience in both theory and application.

Tuve que irme a vivir a 3.000 km. para descubrir que eso que tanto me gustaba y que nunca encontraba se llamaba "marabú".
Bueno es por eso que una compradora compulsiva no debe ir a una tienda de manualidades XD

PIXELS IN THE MATERIAL WORLD: From Frank Lloyd Wright to Marching Cubes
Jesse Colin Jackson • University of California, Irvine
Tuesday November 24th 2015 • The Studio for Critical Making, Emily Carr University, Vancouver, Canada
Digital images consist of pixels: squares that carry color and brightness values. The three-dimensional world can also be understood to be composed of rectilinear units, such as bricks, blocks, or voxels. Conceptions of area and volume as assemblies of discrete units are increasingly predominant in the digital age, as these units are easily reduced to a binary series of zeros and ones. In this talk, Jesse Colin Jackson will demonstrate that a unit-based understanding of space can be illuminated by the architectural ideas of Frank Lloyd Wright. The Marching Cubes algorithm is an early method for making a surface binary, still commonly used in computer graphics; Jackson will describe his interactive installation that, through an intervention inspired by Wright, permits tactile engagement with this algorithm, and generates dialogue about the ways in which information technology shapes contemporary culture.

Seamless Diffuse Normal Specular Texture Materials
$1.73 per three map set. Commercial Use Okay. www.texturesrusnet
Items donated to the Materials Science Engineering department by the family of Ernest Kirkendall, a U-M alum who wrote a very controversial landmark paper in the 1947, proving that metals diffuse into each other in a different way than was widely believed at the tall. He discovered the Kirkendall Effect, which is still taught to MSE students today.

Sears Building Materials 1909 advertising portable buildings, sectional buildings, the closest thing to prefabricated that Sears ever sold until the Homart Homes were introduced.
I would be REALLY surprised to find one of these still standing! Think storage shed in a box from a home improvement store. Will those still be around in 100 years? Doubtful.
