Case modification by user Dave

Apparently a CL77 battery was installed on the bike, which isn't a very big deal, just slightly taller than usual. Which means that the original (much thicker) piece of rubber insulation that's here keeps the bracket from clamping down and holding the battery in place. I took an old piece of tire tube, cut it to spec and glued it on with RTV sealant.

 

Problem solved.

Someone made a little modification to this sign ...

Removed: DirecTV Tivo, Xbox (with Linux installed), home theater amplifier.

 

Leaving: US PS2, Japan PS2, Xbox 360, Airport Express, tube HD TV Sony KV-30HS510, on-board power strip.

 

Now this cabinet can be rolled from room to room, including facing the backyard. Outdoor wireless internet and game controllers!

 

When the cabinet is docked in the media room, I can plug the optical inputs from the PS2 and the Xbox 360 into the home theater stereo, sitting nearby. Gotta repair/solder the input jack on my old subwoofer.

A section of straight chassis rail has been welded into place, replacing the sloping rear section that suited its previous tractor unit role.

Stagecoach Highlands operated ADL Enviro400 MMC SK23 CTE - 11786 - is pictured departing Inverness Bus Station with a service on route 26A towards Cromarty.

 

This vehicle wears the 2020 Stagecoach Local livery and is one of 17 buses of its type and age in the fleet. Two of them have since moved to Aberdeen in exchange for two older Enviro400s as Aberdeen required more LEZ compliant vehicles. This leaves Inverness and surrounding areas with 15 of the new ones.

Like most Episcopal churches, St. Paul's probably started as a small, one room building. There were probably modifications through the years, and like many of the small churches that have had to expand, this one seems to have kept its architectural style intact.

 

Most of the episcopal churches I've seen have been done in either Tudor or classic styles as this one shows. In Ormond Beach, Florida, quite a ways north of St. Paul's, St. James Episcopal, a large, much more modern building, presents a less common architectural style for its congregation. In keeping with that bent towards our current cultural styles, St. James is also a bit more updated in its worship style, offering a very relaxed mass on Sunday evenings, which is informal, and draws those who still like the structure of a liturgical mass, but don't want the rigidity of a service that could've taken place in the 1800's.

 

Going back to St James to worship after not having been there for decades, I was pleasantly surprised at Father Harris' approach and teaching style, while still being able to recognize elements of the mass that I grew up with. It has made me curious as to just how much some of these churches HAVE changed, and if the Episcopal church has become more evangelistic and aware in nature since I was confirmed some 42 years ago. I would like to visit St. Paul's one day to see how it compares.

 

If you grew up in a more formal church, it can be comforting to return and find the structure still in place. However, there are things about liturgical churches that I have a beef with. Though I grew up going to the Episcopal church, and studied its catechism before confirmation, there was never an emphasis on a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It was always an "I'm here and He's waaaay out there" kind of feeling worshiping there. We weren't taught that there was a conscious decision to be made; it was implied. While the structure was designed to bring someone up from infancy through being confirmed as a believer, it was too nebulous. Many of the people I knew who went to the churches I did were not what I would consider "born again", a term in scripture denoting the transformation that takes place when someone repents and turns their lives over to Jesus. There was still the more worldly mindset that weighed good against bad, and assumed if you had more good going for your character than evil, you would go to heaven, and if you really messed up, like committing murder, you would go to hell. This is not even remotely biblical, as the Apostle Paul, for whom this church was named, would define in his many epistles.

 

Paul was a Pharisee. A Pharisee was a Jewish leader, who knew the law backwards and forewards, and basically determined if the people were guilty of breaking it, and what should be done about it if they did! These were the guys who met in the middle of the night to unjustly try Jesus without a fair trial, and who pushed Pontius Pilate into having Him crucified.

 

Paul was a young man when Jesus walked the earth. After the crucifixion and resurrection, as he gained more prominence and became thoroughly educated in the law, he was so opposed to what the early Christians were preaching, thinking it was heresy, he took on the task of persecuting them, and having them tried and killed for their beliefs. Paul called himself the chief sinner, and a murderer. He spoke of how, after the Lord blinded him on the road to Damascus, and spoke to him, he surrendered his life to Christ and began to preach the gospel himself! Of all of the people in the New Testament, Paul was probably the most influencial, and despite his knowledge of Jewish law, was chosen by God to go out and preach to the gentiles, not the Jews. For 2000 years his words have been reaching across time and space, telling people that no matter WHAT they had done, they could still have a fresh start and be righteous before the Lord by faith in what Jesus did for them on the cross. Nothing they could do would ever earn it, and only the sacrifice of Christ could have saved them.

 

St. Paul was a zealous man, first for the law, which condemned man's sin, and then for the cause of Christ, who provided the answer for it. He suffered greatly, being beaten, stoned and left for dead, shipwrecked, snake-bit, and mocked. In the end, being a Roman citizen, he appealed to Caesar to be tried in Rome, where he was sentenced to death, and beheaded. He believed that for him to live was Christ, and to die would be gain. On that sliding scale we set up in our minds, I don't think he would ever have been able to convince himself that his good outweighed the evil he had done persecuting the church he ended up nurturing, because he knew he wasn't good...no one was. He knew it was all about what Jesus had done on that cross, and that accepting that and believing in it was all that could ever remove the weight of sin from the balance of his life. It wasn't about him; it was about Jesus, and he knew it.

 

As a child, the liturgy of the Episcopal churches I attended spoke of those things, and the gospel was read weekly. The same prayers were prayed over and over, (something Jesus warned against as being the wrong way to talk to God,) but despite the fact that I had a relatively high I.Q., and understood King James English, the words reached my mind, but not my understanding. Understanding has to do with the heart, not just intellect. It wasn't until two years after I was confirmed that someone sat down with me and explained how simple it was to come to Christ, and that it was individual and personal. Looking back, I feel pretty dumb not having grasped it by what I HAD been taught in church, but when I realize that most of the people I knew hadn't really grasped it, either, I knew that it wan't because of my ability to think. It was because of my inability to take what I'd learned and apply it. That came with personally asking Jesus to come into my heart and change me.

 

When I see churches like St. Paul's, I remember that though I didn't come to Christ there, the seeds which drew me to the Lord were planted there. The word of God was preached, and that word has the power of God to transform lives. When I look at a little steeple like this one, or see those pretty, stained glass windows, I thank God for setting me on the path to Him, and for all the things He did to redeem me and get me to want Him. it boggles my mind sometimes. God is so good....

 

Those of you who follow my stream know that things have been difficult for me for some time. I've been working as a floater with Mattress1One, and they finally gave me a store to manage. After working there for a few days, I realized that it would be hard to make the money I needed to be able to pay my back property tax by the December deadline I'd be given, since I'd be driving about 100 miles a day, and the store was in a slow location. Mattress sales have been good lately, though, and as a floater, working between several stores, I've been able to hit commission often, and finally started getting a little money together.

 

Presidents Day, I received a call from my boss saying he needed me in Port Orange because the manager had gone home very sick, and her sister was handling the store alone and was getting slammed. As soon as a floater arrived, I left to rescue the other lady, and when I got there, found out that it was really slow! Her sister went in the hospital the next day, so I was scheduled to work in Port Orange after that, because they don't have many people who can cover this area, or cover a very busy store. At first I was upset, since it looks like they've taken yet another store from me, but the sales have been really good, and I realized hitting commission a few times in a row could raise that tax money for me! The store I'd been given was not only very far from home, but very slow, to boot.

 

Last night when I got home, I checked my mail. There was a letter from the county saying my home could be auctioned as early as APRIL 1! (I was told DECEMBER!) Initially, I freaked out, but I sat down on my computer and looked at my finances and realized that I should have all the money needed for the 2009 tax next week....as long as nothing else creates financial issues, and I don't have to spend hundreds of dollars in gas! So, pray that for the rest of the day and on Saturday and Sunday, when I'm back in the store that would have been mine, I get some big sales to ensure I can make it. God has been blessing me, and I need those blessings to continue so I can save my home! I see His hand in this, and know that He's made things come together just as they have done. God is good, start to finish....

It has pneumatic suspension and motorized/remotely controlled driving and steering. It has a working steering wheel and remotely controlled original functions (doors, rear spoiler and hood - choice of a function is done manually with gearbox lever, like in the original).

It has additional two L motors for driving and M motor for steering, two IR receivers (one of them V2). Original battery box has been replaced with 8878 rechargeable battery box which is smaller so I could hide it behind panels at the rear for more realistic appearance.

Original suspension (6.5 L hard springs) has been changed with 6.5 L soft spring + small pneumatic cylinder, for all wheels. It has large pneumatic pump at the back and pneumatic switch at the cabin for controlling riding height.

It's amazing what winglets can do to a commercial aircraft, the A320 which is more substance over style looks a lot better with winglets which give them some sort of elegance.

In the past, Airbus Industrie have experimented with winglet designs on the A320 family... The wingtip fences that have been used on the A320 since the 1990's which compared to winglets found on the competing Boeing 737 were well known for producing induced drag and vortices on take-off and landing. To counteract this, in 2006, Airbus developed two different winglet designs. One was done by Airbus as a basic improvement on the wingtip fence design whilst the second had a more blended design done by Winglet Technology.

Although the testing proved successful, Airbus announced initially they would not offer the new designs to customers until 2008 when Airbus worked with Aviation Partners on an existing winglet design and by 2009, Airbus announced that the 'Sharklets' would be fitted to customers after 2012 with Air New Zealand the first to benefit... This would be part of modifications to the current generation A320 until the new revised versions arrive by 2017.

G-ZBAB is the second A320 with Monarch to be delivered with Sharklets, delivered in April 2013. Currently, there are three A320 series aircraft that have Sharklets, with two A321's on order that will most likely see the winglets applied.

Airbus A320-214(WL) G-ZBAB arrives at East Midlands (EMA) on ZB7449 from Málaga (AGP).

He is getting his demon wings, which are part of his background story.

 

This is only just the basic frame form of the wings. I will be sculpting them with apoxie soon when I find some more time for it.

It's always a delicate and not entirely reliable balancing act to use what this tool was before I added the cross-member that's resting on the vise covers. Bottle boss heads weren't always held square, housing stop alignment could shift and sometimes the stop would slide radially. The relatively heavy cross bar is a simple approach that anchors fixture alignment adequately and rectifies those sorts of problems. I'm very happy with it.

Theme of Vehicle:

With only two-weeks to complete this build, creating daily driven street car was the focus. These modifications anyone can achieve quickly and very affordably. We choose the LX model because of its lighter chassis and additional 2” of headroom over the EX model. The vehicle owner is 6’8” and fits comfortable inside with plenty of knee/head room. The Platinum Certified Honda Technicians at Mugsy’s Repair in York, PA. upgraded the engine first with a K&N Intake system, and cat-back Magnaflow exhaust system adding an additional +15wph. We also saw an addition of +2MPG after these simple engine modifications. Next, we addressed the outside of the vehicle by painting all the ABS plastic body kit with BASF R-M Browns Anthracite Paint and roof by Browns Auto Body Werkz, Mechanicsburg, PA. We added a direct fit replacement LED Fog Light Casing to the front fascia for added safety on the road. The interior was completely upgraded from the factory cloth to Katzkin Leather with Deeheated and cooled for those cold North East winter months. Additional in the summer the 3M Cystalline 40 Window Tint blocks 97% of infrared heat from the vehicle. Furthermore, Schroth Racing Rallye Cross ASM 4-point street legal belts were added for those autocross events, and then snap out in seconds to store in the truck. Handling of the vehicle was next, the BC Suspension Coilovers are surprising comfortable with a 4.5” drop on 18x8 Konig Oversteer wheels wrapped with Toyo T1 Sport Tires. Behind the wheel and tire package is a massive yet innovative 13.3” WP Pro Brake Sawblade Rotor with a 6-piston caliper stopping the vehicle in its tracks.

This is a photograph from the 1st round of the 2015 Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 6th May 2015 at 20:00. This year the 5KM was ran on a modified route based on the route from the last couple of years. Tonight the final 1KM stayed within the Belvedere Gardens bringing runners down to the lakeside for a second time and finishing along the aptly named Stream Of Life. The route modification meant that the race offered a slightly faster route than the hill finish of previous years.

The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was perfect for running with sunshine with just a little breeze. The new finish area provided a nice space for runners to stay around and chat in the evening sunshine. The Mullingar Road League 2015 has started off successfully and looks to add to the success in the history of this great series.

The "Road League" is something of a misnomer but is an indication of the League's origins on the roads around Ladestown Mullingar prior to it's move into Belvedere in 2008. The Road League is the envy of many other races in the country as the Belvedere locations offers a completely traffic free 5KM route.

 

We have an extensive set of photographs from tonight in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/16772614064/

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

 

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

 

I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

For some reason there are very few photos of the inside of a Behringer C-2 microphone available online. Only a handful of descriptions of the disassembly process exist, either, so I made this photo set and the accompanying descriptions in order to at least partially address this information gap.

 

The board uses almost all 0805 SMT components except for the FET, the 1Gohm bias resistor, the three filter capacitors, and this three position switch. The switch lets you switch in a -10dB pad or a high pass filter.

 

If you make a new board for a C-2, you will either have a hole in the mic body where the switch used to be, or you can use the switch and move it to your new board.

thanks chelsey your a doll! i got three but can only take a picture of two at a time!

This is a pinhole camera, which I made out of a cheap 35mm Vivitar point-and-shoot camera, which you can easily find at your local thrift store/bargain basement for less than a couple of dollars.

 

Basically all I did with this camera is remove the lens and shutter mechanism (Which was fairly easy, because there was not very much to the mechanism). Then I took a small piece of tinfoil (with a pinhole, of course) and placed it right about where the lens was originally. The removal of both the lens and shutter assembly compromised the cameras “light-tightness”, so a liberal amount of electrical tape was used to help seal the camera, and make it light-tight again. I also used a thin strip of black construction paper with a small square cut in the center to act as a shutter.

 

The first time I ran a roll of film through it, it confused the poor guys at the photo lab. They did not know what to make of it, some of the pictures where over/under exposed, quite blurry, and there where uneven gaps between the frames on the negative. I have recently made a few adjustments, and everything seems to be working great

 

With this camera, I have found that on a nice bright sunny day, with 200 ISO film, a 1-2 second exposure is all you really need. I should get around to uploading some of those pictures soon!

One of several stunning vintage cars that were at the car show at the U.P. Festival this past Saturday. This had a lot of modifications done to it, and I thought it was awesome; I loved how the hood was propped open with a sword on this chevy!

Based on the amazing Micro-Model designed by master builder Mariann Asanuma for Brickjournal

 

Ignoring the elegant lines of Mariann's model, I made a few tweaks to the design, extending the roof and adding a chimney. I also gave a bigger hat to the snowman, 'cause I'm a rebel like that.

Trinity Church (Bruck an der Leitha)

Bruck parish church

The Holy Trinity Church is the Roman Catholic parish church to the Holy Trinity in Bruck an der Leitha (Lower Austria).

First phase (1696-1702)

Second phase of construction (1738-40)

Last structural modifications (1782-83)

History

Since the old church of St. Martin before the gates of the "new" city in invasions of the enemy repeatedly was destroyed, for the ever growing population also long since became too small and the existing within the city walls monastery churches and chapels for worship (no longer) could be used, was in the mid-17th Century the decision taken to build a new parish church within the city gates. The siege by the Turks and the appearance of the plague thwarted these plans again and again. After the Ottoman army was defeated in 1683 successfully in the Battle of Vienna and the plague was considered extinct, the City Council in gratitude decided to build a dignified church on the main square newly. The church should be attached to the existing medieval tower. Served as the model the early Baroque Church of Gesù in Rome.

First phase (1696-1702)

Under architect Heinrich Hoffmann the nave was built parallel to the row of houses, which is why the city tower - now converted into a church tower - stands approximately 15 degrees rotated to the north. It was raised by the superstructure of the belfry and received a baroque spire.

Second phase of construction (1738-40)

The austere frontispiece was replaced by architect Johann Georg Windpässinger by the two-storey magnificent facade. The sculptural decoration was designed by Martin Vögerl (Marian column Hainburg an der Donau) and displays above the main portal (City Arms with the year 1740) the figure of St. John of Nepomuk with the representation of the Vltava River bridge at the base. Other figures in the basement are the portraits of the plague saints Sebastian with tree, Rochus with Pestbeule (bubo) at the knee and the Saint Florian with the bucket of water and the Holy Leopold. Upstairs - flanked by volutes crowned by vases from their ornamental vessels the flame of the sacrifice is licking - the representation of the Holy Archangel Michael, crashing Satan with a flaming sword into the abyss. In the tympanum a magnificent edged plate with the inscription: "QUIS UT DEUS" (Who is like God?)

Last structural changes (1782-83)

The spire was raised by the lantern of the death-knell and slightly modified in its shape (tower height: 53,35 m).

Pass away ringing:

The Schiedläuten (pass away ringing), (also: Scheideläuten, Scheidungsläuten, death ringing) means that when a case of death becomes known with the Schiedglocke (pass away bell) - in Switzerland/Austria also with the Zügenglocke (cf. "to be at one's last gasp" ) - is rung. This can be done either at the arrival of the news of the death, after the next Betläuten/Angelus or at another fixed time. In Austria there is also partly still the custom that in the event of death of a man the Schiedglocke rings three times, in the event of death of a woman two times and in the event of death of a child one time (Wikipedia).

Equipment

The interior is 42 meters long and 14 meters wide, the chapel niches on both sides each measure 3 meters. The single naved longhouse is spanned by a four-bay, slightly stuccoed lunette ton. Recessed pilasters, which are divided by double pilasters bear a sharp profiled beams to which join the barrel-vaulted galleries. The straight closing forms the retracted, two-bay choir.
