Taken at the ILC - IBM Learning Center
They have several displays of machines and parts.
This one is ferrite core memory.
This picture also has 3 different numbers that are divisible by 9
I like the way the number 3202344 is printed, each number slightly crooked. I kept the picture crooked to match. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
The Frank Sinatra Starkey Hearing Technologies Celebrity Invitational is dedicated to the memory and music of Frank Sinatra and benefits the Barbara Sinatra Center for Abused Children. The Frank Sinatra Starkey Hearing Technologies Celebrity Invitational enjoys a rich history as one of the marquee golf and fundraising events in the Palm Springs, California desert. Each year, celebrities, amateur contestants, loyal sponsors and enthusiastic spectators from all over the country look forward to returning to this unique "celebrity friendly" event.
Known as "Frank's little party in the desert," Barbara and Frank Sinatra founded the Frank Sinatra Celebrity Invitational in 1988 to raise funds for the Barbara Sinatra Center for Abused Children at Eisenhower Medical Center, which opened in 1986. Through their efforts, and those of supporters throughout the world, the Frank Sinatra Starkey Hearing Technologies Celebrity Invitational is now one of the most successful events of it's kind.
The mission of the Barbara Sinatra Center for Abused Children is to provide counseling for victims of physical, sexual and emotional abuse and to focus on prevention, community education and breaking the generational cycle of abuse. Barbara Sinatra is quick to thank supporters of the "Frank Sinatra Starkey Hearing Technologies Celebrity Invitational, and she is proud to say "The children who come to us for help continue to receive the therapy they need and deserve; no child is turned away due to a family's inability to pay."
The Frank Sinatra Starkey Hearing Technologies Celebrity Invitational is a five (5) player team gross and net scramble golf tournament held at Eagle Falls Golf Course in Indio, California. The Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, also in Indio, is the tournament's hotel and venue for three nights of parties and a spectacular luncheon and fashion show.
One (1) celebrity and four (4) contestants are a team. The team of four (4) amateur players remains together for two (2) consecutive days. The celebrity contestant changes teams for the second day. Current USGA handicaps are verified and applied to all contestants.
Speaking of going back in time.....our 2.5 year old grandson is staying with us for 5 days so our creative and entertaining minds are being put back into operation. Today we opened up several huge boxes of stored lego that were put away 25 years ago when our youngest son grew out of them. We had three boys who loved lego so we seriously have thousands of pieces. This is a picture of Ethan's feet covered with lego that his father played with 35 years ago. What a trip!
Rock Creek Cemetery is in the Petworth neighborhood of Washington, D.C. (It's almost due north of the Capitol by about three miles and slightly west, so technically in the northwest part of the city.)
This cemetery predates the nation. It was established in 1719 in the British colony of Maryland. Under the new nation, it became part of the federal district and the cemetery was expanded, in a garden style. (Cemeteries in the 18th century had a park/garden feel where families would often go on weekends to relax.)
This cemetery has a handful of famous (or close-to-famous) folks interred here and also some high quality statuary (both on tombstones and in general).
Among those interred here are Gore Vidal, Upton Sinclair, and George McGovern. Some related-to-famous people include Alexander Graham Bell's father and Edgar Allan Poe's sister.
As for the sculptures you can find here are works by two famous sculptors: Gutzon Borglum (Rabboni-Foulke Memorial, 1909), Augustus Saint-Gaudens (Adams Memorial, 1890), and William Ordway Partridge (Kauffman Memorial, aka Seven Ages or Memory, 1890).
At the end of anything I can say about this place, I'll just say this: It may not be a place you'll ever see as a tourist/visitor, because there are so many other places to visit in town and your time is probably limited, which is understandable. However, if you do have a chance (and interest in cemeteries and the history/culture of burials), this is one of the better cemeteries you could hope to visit. It's relaxing, in a rolling hill setting, and simply pleasant to visit, especially if you catch it during the change of seasons as I did. (I'm curious how it might look in spring, and if there are lots of flowers in bloom here.)
Memory is a child walking along a seashore. You never can tell what small pebble it will pick up and store away among its treasured things. ~Pierce Harris, Atlanta Journal
Weird how some things can just bring back such strong memories, so strong that it actually creates a physical reaction.
In this case it was a good thing - it isn't always! But, really, an amusement park ride? Yep, my whole childhood came rushing back to me.

“Many parents went with their children to Wales when they were evacuated. The family in this house returned to Deal as they wanted to come home. They had only been back a few weeks when their home took a direct hit. They were all killed. The new houses here today were built after the war.”
I photographed some of Nancy Lee's beautiful jewelry earlier this week.
This piece was quite a challenge, how to light the interior of the box without the light showing up as a reflection in the glass. I wound up trying to make the direct light that would shine into the box as large as possible, to spread out the highlight. This worked fairly well and required only a little bit of tweaking in post.
These are in a light tent, the frame made of PVC with an old parachute for the material. The main light on the right is an Elinchrom Quadra double-diffused with a shoot-through umbrella. There's an SB-800 on-axis, also double-diffused, this one into a Strobies Easybox. There's a third light, rear left that provides a nice rim on many of the pieces, it's the highlight you see in the copper on the left image here, showing the back of the box.
Here's a setup photo take with my iPhone: bestc.am/LxbX The left-rear rim light is hard to see in this photo, but the feet of the light stand are easy to spot. You can also see I had a second Quadra head on the left, this one on the "B" channel. I used this one for some of Nancy pieces, when I needed fill on the left side.
O God of spirits, and of all flesh, who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil and given life to Thy world: Do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the soul of Thy departed servant Jaroslav, in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away. Pardon every transgression which he has committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin; for Thou only art without sin; Thy righteousness is to all eternity; and Thy word is truth.
For Thou art the resurrection, the life, and the repose of Thy servant, Jaroslav, who is fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, Who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Grant rest eternal in blessed repose, O Lord, to Thy servant Jaroslav, who has fallen asleep, and make his memory to be eternal!

Lies Baas 2012 Today, june 21th, one year ago our sweetheart Indy, AKA Mieuwtje, died.
I still miss him every day really a lot.
The way he always took over the entire bed, the way he, when he sat on my lap, threw himself to my chest, and yawn. His smelly breath while licking my hair, the funny spot on his nose, the way he always put his little warm paw on my hand, the way he held on tight while he layed on my lap...making tiny little holes in all my clothes. The way he smelled like home, and that super soft spot behind his ears.
He is still very much in my heart....
"The ball seemed to accelerate as it came closer; an accelerating, impossibly fast pitch that made the noises of hornets and snakes."
A great quote that signals the moment when the author realised that professional baseball was a world away from the game he had played. From the great book Boys of Summer by Roger Kahn.

My 2004 40th Anniversary Crimson Red GT Convertible and my daughter's 2005 red Power Wheels GT Convertible. Great show, huge turnout compared to last year with the threat of rain. My rear tires and rev limiter got three great workouts. Thanks to MOCSEM for a great car show.

Sunning myself at Bluebell Beach off Mott Lake on the Flint River for the first time since the 1980's. It was a slice of paradise on a summer afternoon in Genesee County.

Sign should read "no frills". food quality is never to bad, lots of no-name product. Fab gave me my 1st minimum wage grocery store job back in high school. I was head stock boy for the freezer department. I walked in for my interview and he read my last name out loud, then asked if I new Robert. I said he was one of my 1st cousins. Fab said he went to school with him and the rest was history. That Job was one of 4 that I worked during high school. Best memory of that store was falling a sleep in the -40C freezer for 15 min. I had made a bed out of a skid of Ice cream, and had they not found me when they did, I would have been frozen, just like Walt Disney, and one of the former Russian Leaders, Stalin, Lenin or was it Kruschev? Still those were good times.
