Newsflash : I had my first official photo license sale. This is the photo.An indie musician contacted me thru Flickr, and wanted permission to use one of my photos for his album art. I'm so stoked and grateful and I hope 2010 would open up lots of opportunities.
Geylang Serai, Singapore
Had an eventful day at Geylang, a Malay district . My cousin was accused of photographing a mentally-challenged guy who was prancing around. A bugger rushed to us and began hurling vulgarities, despite donning a songkok.It made me ponder on how photography is still a taboo to some & how sensitive certain issues are. Maybe we are nonchalant but I still think a mutual respect between us and the surrounding has to be practiced.

Gracie was at Elizabeth and Claude’s table, researching for her business opportunity.
“Do you still plan to open Fast French in Room 2?” Gracie asked Claude.
“Oh, yes,” Claude answered, “but it’s so much work to go through the structure approval process and have the funds to build the structure.. You know my father will not help me as he did Pierre.”
“Well, since all signs point to Boolster’s leaving the coffeeshop niche, it'll be up to me to cater to the younger crowd in Room 2.”
“Well, I like it here,” Elizabeth interrupted, defending her favorite handout.
“Newsflash, Elizabeth,” Gracie said: “You’re not the young crowd anymore.”
Feeling a bit insulted, Elizabeth exited the conversation and returned to her tomato soup.
“So you and I will be fighting for the same customers?” Claude asked anxiously.
“No worries there: The Don Buzzles of our town are always going to need somewhere to eat in Room 2 – let's just say I'm aiming for a different crowd.”

Newport man discovers naked, headless mannequin in his living room.
Avery Woolworth was just about to start eating his Honey Nut Cheerios TM when he noticed the headless mannequin staring at him. "She was in her birthday suit so I got her a bathrobe", Woolworth said. It is unclear how this female form gained access to his living room. Local authorities are investigating.

Newsflash!!! Yes, Marilyn is really a man, shock, horror!!! Here HE is, and then an hour later, after some modest figure enhancement, a realistic silicone mask, makeup, and clothing, HE has been transformed into this gorgeous sexy goddess, so is now a SHE!!! Goodness gracious!!!
NEWSFLASH – I am posting an HDR image! This was shot walking distance from my work. Stalkers.
Yes I know my photos lately have been littered with weddings, engagements, babies, pregnant people (mostly women) and a few landscape shots done with filters… but where is the HDR? I guess understanding filters a little better, and shooting with a better camera has changed my direction a bit. BUT, when meeting with a potential bride Tuesday afternoon and seeing these amazing stratocumulus clouds beckoning in the sunset, I had to ask the client to hold on… went back to my car, got my camera out, and hand-held 7 bracketed shots to get this. I showed her the resulting photo to which she said:
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...so pretty.
The bride told me today I’m going to photograph her wedding next May. I wasn’t even sure exactly who referred her to me until I got an email from my contact David aka ValCo saying he was happy I booked his co-worker. Ahhhh, it all made sense. And this really shows that people on Flickr are genuine, real people. Friends. Some creepers. Of all the amazing wedding photographers in the Los Angeles area, he gave her my contact info. I’m beyond words. I hope he’s at the wedding so I can buy him a cold beer, and I hope it’s an open bar.
Thanks again David, and all of you who are gracious with your comments, opinions, stories, recommendations, critiques, jokes and even ridiculous graphical awards.

I'm going to enjoy my Dutch tompouce pastry with my Dutch cassis soft drink. I know it will taste delicious and it's a good start for King's Day, the Dutch national holiday to celebrate the birthday of our king. For the occasion I'm also wearing a pretty party dress, and being feminine and chic feels awesome. All is great; cheers to you my friend!
PS:
Newsflash! Something special to celebrate extra: my girlfriend Tess just phoned me that she became a granny! Her first grandchild is born just a few hours ago; it's a girl and her name is Novi. Mom and baby are in great health. Cheers to the baby girl, and to her parents and grandparents!
While looking through my old neg files over the weekend I found this image mixed in with all kinds of different stuff and marked with 1975. I remember making a plastic water housing for my Minolta SRT-102 that year, so the date is correct. I'm just not sure where this was taken...Was it the South Bay or the Oxnard area or ? Any one have an idea?

Newsflash!
I finally have launched my new photography portfolio site: zerofive.nl
I’m very happy to introduce it to you all! This new portfolio website is a way to share my photography with the world! I hope you will visit my site very often! It would be awesome if anyone could tweet, comment etc on the site….enjoy!
If like you like, you can download a FREE Vespa wallpaper!
I’ve included this photo of myself so you can imagine who you wanna punch in the face after reading this. At least I’m doing the Asian PEACE!
To try and reduce the risk of my snapping on the next person that asks my advice about buying a camera when they already own too many I’m making a list what should be said in this situation:
1. You don’t need another camera. The idea that a camera will make you better is nothing more than an admission of laziness to actually learn how to use the one you have. FULL STOP.
2. Buy a photo book instead. One of the funniest things I ever hear from photographer friends is how they actually know NOTHING about the masters of photography. I mean NOTHING. They spend 100% of their time on forums talking about gear and on flickr looking at photos they think to be inferior to their own. “Wow! Look at this shit Josh! How can this guy think this is good.” Newsflash, after thinking that about the last 30 photos you took I’ve decided to save my time commenting and look for photos that inspire me. (I half stole this sentiment from Charlie Kirk – two cute dogs)
3. STOP looking at reviews from dudes that like every fucking camera they try. Like really? These idiots have worse GAS than you but at least they aren’t spending their paychecks on this ridiculousness. Or if they are, they are even more stupid.
4. If you MUST look at reviews of something, look at the problems with the camera, not what it does well. EVERY camera does shit well, check out the shit it can’t do first. If I have to buy some kind of gear I only wanna hear what makes it shit. I almost never buy anything after that. I know what makes my gear shit. One of my friends showed up to meet me with the Nikon DF (short for Daft FUCK or Dumb FUCK depending on where you come from) he had just saved up three paychecks for. “Well, DF (better than using their name), don’t you find it annoying there isn’t something simple like an AUTO for the ISO on that dial that took four years to make? How’s that mode dial, did the FM have one of those? For that matter, does the X100?” After ten minutes he broke down and told me he actually hates the camera and has been trying to sell it for the last week. He didn’t know about any of the annoyances because he “didn’t think they were serious” when he was reading the reviews. He might as well have said he didn’t look. He later told me he read Steve Huff’s review every day for two weeks. *Speaking of guys that love every camera but don’t pay for any. He is also an expert on paranormal activity. Did you know that?
5. Ask yourself this: when did you last buy a camera and how long did it take before you were bored of it? I used to be like this. I’d buy a camera that I HAD TO HAVE and use it for two or three weeks or maybe even a couple of months. Soon after, the initial “inspiration spark” I had tricked myself into thinking I needed had worn off and I was already on the review sites looking at something else. Find a photographer that inspires you or a book. That’s what I do now.
6. Don’t take shit too seriously. Watch Digitalrev TV to get your gear “fix”.. Say what you want about those dudes but they are funny and tell it like it is.
7. Are you a pro or do you pretend to be one? Do you do “jobs” and think that makes you a pro? Learn your craft, second shoot for someone, spend your time watching a pro that’s done it before. I’m trying to do that as much as possible now.
8. Do you ever NOT post an old photo because you don’t have the camera that took it anymore? Another friend showed me a photo that was most definitely one of his best photos. I asked him, “why isn’t that on your portfolio?” …. “Well, it feels weird man I sold that camera months ago.” WTF? What does that mean? TOOLS. Both the CAMERA and the IDIOT.
9. Spend your money on experience! When you’re nearing the end, are you going to look around at all the cameras you have fucking accumulated and feel good about yourself? Hopefully your wife hasn’t left you by then for someone that would rather take her on a trip than buy a new camera.
How about this for an idea. How about, calculate how much money you’ve spent on camera equipment in the past two years and then go to a travel agent. Ask them where you could go for how long for that amount of money.
10. Finally, use your phone for a couple of weeks and see if you can’t make a decent photo or two. When I hit bottom and sold all my gear I took photos with nothing but my phone for a couple of months. It felt amazing. I didn’t feel the NEED to buy another camera since.
Angry? Maybe. It makes me angry that people can’t describe three Bresson photos yet can recite the specs of every camera that has come out since Christmas.
What’s the point? Why do your photos suck? Because you’ve probably never seen a good one or are scared to look. My photos mostly suck, but at least I know what makes a good one. I couldn’t say that about myself three years ago.
From my blog,
It only took 52 years, but I'm happy to report I finally got to see White Sands, after all these years, and a mere 28 years after I left New Mexico.
What an amazing place it is -- I can't wait to get back when I have more time to spend among the white gypsum dunes, which are unlike any dunes I've ever been on. Why? Well, good question.
First of all, once you leave the paved road, you're on a road that's covered in the fine white sand for which the National Monument is named. It's really a surreal experience. Your mind plays tricks on you. You think you're driving on an icy roadway in the middle of winter, with dirty snow plowed and packed on both the shoulders of the path. But you're not -- it's 95 degrees, and you're traveling soundlessly on a sea of hard packed gypsum.
The quiet is the second thing you notice as you get out of the car. Unnaturally quiet. Especially if you're only wearing socks, as was I, since I only had flip flops and dress shoes with me. But unlike sand dunes and beaches of California, these dunes for the most part are hard packed -- and you don't sink into them. In places you do, but the majority of the time, the footing is like walking in a soft, hard-packed pile of talcum powder. I had to think about that last one for a minute. There's really no other way to describe it.
I would have loved to wait until sunset to check out the light conditions, but the shadows of late afternoon made for nice compositions everywhere I looked, and it just took a few minutes to hike out to great vantage points, like this one, that looks like an ocean of white, in my stocking feet.
Apparently, flickr's maps doesn't know where White Sands is. I placed this photo on the map, right along the White Sands loop, and it comes up as being shot in Texas, US. Really, yahoo!? and flickr? New Mexico's only been a state for 101 years, the 47th in the Union to be exact -- and you still don't know where it is?
Time for a remedial geography class -- 4th grade level. Actually I think even 3rd graders can get this one right. Yeah, nine-year olds. Embarrassing for you, yahoo! You, and your maps employees should be ashamed.
A fire has broken out in the roof of the old thatched cottage. Thankfully being right next to the local firestation, help was on hand very quickly and everyone was safely extracted from the house. The police have closed the road as a precaution.

We were talking about the space between us all /
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion /
Never glimpse the truth, then it's far too late, when they pass away /
We were talking about the love we all could share /
When we find it, to try our best to hold it there with our love /
With our love, we could save the world, if they only knew /
Try to realise it's all within yourself /
No one else can make you change /
And to see you're really only very small /
And life flows on within you and without you /
We were talking about the love that's gone so cold /
And the people who gain the world and lose their soul /
They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them? /
When you've seen be-yond yourself then you may find /
Peace of mind is waiting there /
And the time will come when you see we're all one /
And life flows on within you and without you

November 21st, 2042
A couple of hours after getting taken away by the Court of Owls, Batman awakens in a cell at an unknown location. Before he’s able to recover from the effects of the sedatives he got hit with and regain his strength two people dressed in black clothes, wielding sharp and gold-colored weapons, enter his cell and order him to follow them. As he struggles to stand up he notices that the exoskeleton from his suit has powered down, making it much more difficult to move around at all and leaving him in no shape to stand up against them. He complies and follows the one figure as the other one takes position behind him. After walking for a short while they end up in a long hallway, with a red carpet on the floor, expensive furniture on either side of the hall and large paintings hanging from the walls. Batman takes a look at the wall decorations and notices that every single painting features a person holding a strange owl-shaped mask in front of their face. There’s a door at the end of the hallway, guarded by two people wearing the same outfit as the ones escorting him. They open the door for them, giving way to a spacious and empty courtroom. Behind the judge’s desk stands a giant wooden statue of an owl, decorated with gold accents and lit with candles around it. On the sides of the room are several giant windows, all covered with dark red curtains which prevents any natural light from entering the place. Only Helena is sitting in the room, tied to a chair at the defendant’s table.
Batman gets escorted into the room and forced to sit on the chair next to Helena as he gets restrained as well. Before he can ask his daughter if she’s okay, the gates of the courtroom swing open as a group of masked individuals march into the room. They all silently take a seat on the public benches behind the two right as the jury enters the room as well, conveniently all wearing the same owl-shaped mask too. As they all sit down at the exact same time Helena begins nervously looking around her, intimidated by the situation she is now in. A door inside the giant owl statue opens, out of which a judge appears. Batman notices the judge seems to be the same person who appeared in the Wayne Tower and ordered them to come to the Court in the first place. He takes a seat, breaks the silence by slamming his hammer on the table and demands order in the courtroom, starting their trial against Batman and Robin.
The judge starts by telling about the Court of Owls, explaining how they have been around since Gotham was established decades ago. For years they managed to rule the city from the shadows, killing anyone who found out about their existence or opposed them using a group of specifically trained assassins called the Talons. When a certain masked vigilante began running around Gotham they didn’t see him as a threat at first. Finding that having him assassinated by the Talons would be a bit excessive they instead opted to orchestrate a series of events which would lead to a deranged serial killer by the name of Zsaz escaping from Arkham. Knowing that the Batman would take it upon himself to go after him, they hoped that he wouldn’t stand a chance against the killer and get killed while fighting him. However, they found themselves astonished as Batman managed to defeat Zsaz with ease, something they had not taken into consideration. Realizing the danger of him running around Gotham they considered ordering the Talons to murder him, but changed their mind after he coincidentally started targeting several of their opponents. The Court then decided to willingly let Batman fight the criminal world of Gotham without interfering, only stepping in if he accidentally stumbled upon them or started targeting them. All the while, the Court continued to influence the city from the shadows.
Roughly 5 years later, a long series of unfortunate events led to the Dark Knight retiring. With the Batman no longer being a possible threat to the Court, they decided to start spreading out their influence more while making certain their existence was kept a secret. Over the decades, dozens of wannabe vigilantes hoping to step into the footsteps of the Dark Knight started to make their way onto the streets. As rumors of a secret underground society who are secretly controlling Gotham started leaking, many of them started to seek them out and found their way right on the doorstep of the Court. In order to preserve their secret they were forced to murder everyone who stood in their way, having to cover up the assassinations to not arouse any suspicions. After decades of doing this the Court of Owls decided they could not continue covering up the disappearances of teen vigilantes, deciding to take action by making a statement by taking down the Dark Knight. Upon discovering his identity and tracking him down using the help of a deranged Edward Nigma and a frail Hugo Strange, they began orchestrating a long plot in order to get him to put on the suit again. One of the Talons assassinated Selina and left behind evidence to make him suspect the Joker, knowing this would motivate him to return to Gotham to investigate. By using a tiny improvised explosive device hidden within the playing card they hoped to detonate it while he was holding it within Arkham. However, they did not account for Batman giving the card to Joker himself, which allowed him to survive the blast and only killed the Clown Prince of Crime along with the other Arkman inmates. After so many years, they decided enough was enough; it was time to put him on trial in front of the Court of Owls for standing in their way too much.
Batman barely has any time to process what he just heard as the crowd and jury start shouting how they think they are guilty. There’s no way they would win a case against a kangaroo court like this; their decision was already made way before the trial started. The judge slams his hammer down again, silencing the chaos as he prepares to read his verdict. Due to being found guilty of interfering with the plans of the Court of Owls, Batman and Robin get sentenced to death at the hands of the Talons right now. The judge asks if he has anything to say about his verdict, but cuts him off right as he is about to speak up. The spectators and jury start cheering and clapping as two of the Talons walk into the courtroom, each entering on opposite sides of the room. They take their positions in front and behind the two, unsheathing their golden weapons to prepare for battle. One member of the Court gets ordered to untie the Dynamic Duo in order to make the odds more fair as the rest of the crowd prepares to watch as the Batman finally gets taken down by the Court of Owls after so many years.
The Talon behind Batman strikes first and stabs him in the back, but his armor prevents the blade from piercing through his skin. He manages to reactivate his exosuit and turns around, ready to fight again as he pulls out a Batarang from his belt. His enemy strikes again, aiming for the exposed skin around his mouth instead, but Batman manages to deflect it with his own weapon. He uses the opportunity to slice the Talon in the arm, although this doesn’t phase him. Batman holds his hand in front of his face and casts a glance at the spectators, seeing they are all silently toasting for their demise with expensive drinks in their hands. His short distraction gives the Talon an opportunity to successfully hit him, but Helena deflects the attack at the last moment with her own weapon stick. He compliments her for being able to stand her ground against their opponents before continuing the battle. The Talon starts attacking more and more fiercely, slowly managing to weaken Batman’s defenses while coming closer to getting a successful strike on him. He tries his best to keep up with him, but Batman slowly starts to become weaker and weaker with every attack. Right as he is about to slash the Dark Knight in the face, the leader of the Court suddenly commands the assassins to stop attacking. Unsure of what to do, the Talons lay down their weapons for a moment as they watch what their leader’s intentions are right now. He mutters something about hearing a weird noise outside as he walks towards the window and lifts up the curtains. Batman tries to get a glimpse of the outside world to locate their hideout if they manage to get out, but he soon picks up the sound outside too; he hears the loud revving of an engine in the distance slowly coming towards them, accompanied by the sound of a car horn. The crowd gathers around the window to see what the commotion is about, but quickly runs away in terror as the Batmobile crashes through the wall at full speed.
Pieces of debris rain down everywhere as the vehicle comes to a screeching halt right in front of Batman and Robin. Chaos ensues in the room as each member of the Court desperately tries to make their escape, terrified of the imposing black vehicle which just crashed through the wall of their hideout. The door opens as the person driving the Batmobile beeps the horn, prompting them to jump inside. Batman kicks the Talon in front of him to the ground and hits the other one in the chest with several batarangs to give them a window to escape. He and Helena jump inside the Batmobile as he takes control of the steering wheel, closing the door right before the Talons can make their way inside. He puts his boot on the gas pedal and activates the rocket booster in order to make their escape from the Court. As they are driving through the streets of Gotham early in the morning, Barbara appears on one of the screens of the console, asking if they are alright. She explains that she left the Wayne Enterprises building for a short moment to check up on her case at the GCPD, but when she returned she saw the camera footage of them getting abducted. Although it was impossible for her to track them down at first since the Court of Owls covered up almost all of their tracks, Batman reactivating his high-tech suit set off a GPS signal which allowed her to pinpoint their location. With the help of a new modification to the Batmobile she was able to remotely control the armored vehicle for a while to reach the place and to help them escape.
Helena sighs of relief, tired of the confrontation they just went through when she says that they must’ve escaped the Court by now. However, right after she says this the two feel something landing on the roof of the Batmobile. Before they can react, one of the Talon’s golden weapons cuts through the armored material like butter, making an opening for himself to enter the vehicle. Batman stands up from his seat and orders Helena to drive despite her not having any driving experience yet as he deals with the Talon standing in the cramped open space in the back of the Batmobile. He makes his way towards him, feeling the cold morning air cut through his skin while he begins punching his enemy. After hitting him a couple of times the Talon catches his fist inside his hand, landing a couple of strikes on his face and damaging his cowl before Batman kicks him right in the stomach. The impact of the kick makes him land hard on the cold floor of the Batmobile, but before he can recover Batman leaps on top of him and starts pounding him in the head. He stops for a short moment to charge up his exosuit for a bigger punch, but the vehicle suddenly making a sharp turn to get outside of Gotham, makes him miss the Talon and denting the floor instead. While he recovers and tries to get another punch in, the other Talon lands on the front of the car and begins damaging the engine. Helena makes a couple more sharp turns in an effort to get him off the car but all it does is make Batman lose his balance, giving him a disadvantage in the fight. As smoke begins coming from the engine Helena loses control of the vehicle, prompting Batman to abandon the fight to prevent them from going off the road. However, he is too late; before he can do anything, the Batmobile crashes through the guardrail on the ride of the road, sending them all tumbling down a hill.
When Helena regains consciousness, she feels herself getting dragged out of the wreckage which was once the Batmobile. Pieces of wreckage are scattered everywhere as the smell of smoke fills her nose. Once she is at a safe distance away from the wreck, she is able to properly see the damage; the Batmobile is laying upside down with a fire having erupted in the engine as several important components of the car have been damaged or broken off. Suddenly, she notices one of the Talons crawling away from the wreck. His outfit has been torn and burned, with him being unable to walk because of the crash. Batman sees him too, and begins slowly walking towards him. The Talon notices this and for the first time he hears one of them speak as he begins pleading for him to put him out of his misery. Batman stays silent for a while before telling him to go back to the Court. He wants him to relay a message to them, warning that it will take much more than this to take down Batman. They tried their best to get rid of him, and they failed. If they try this again, he won't be taken by surprise like this time and warns that he will do whatever it takes to take down the entire Court by himself. The Talon begins crying out that the Court of Owls will just murder him for this fiasco, but Batman ignores him and turns around leaving him on his own. He calls Barbara to pick them up as he puts an arm around Helena, complimenting her for what she did today as the Batmobile continues to burn down behind them.
Roughly a week has passed since the incident with the Court. Despite Bruce and Barbara’s best efforts, they haven't managed to track down the Court again; upon returning to the place where he was taken to to be put on trial, he only found an empty and abandoned building with all of the furniture and decorations taken away. Barbara has taken the wreckage of the Batmobile back to the Wayne Enterprises building, developing plans to rework the vehicle into something else instead of simply rebuilding it.
During a boring evening at the Wayne Building, the regularly scheduled tv programme gets interrupted by a newsflash; A terrorist going by the name of Bane, suspected to be the person responsible for getting a majority of Gotham addicted to Venom, has attacked the Gotham Stock Exchang. In a publicly broadcasted video he revealed to have gotten his hands on a decaying neutron bomb which is set to detonate this Christmas Eve. In his video he directly challenged the Dark Knight, saying that he is only willing to stop the bomb from exploding if he manages to defeat him. Confident that he can save Gotham once more, Bruce suits up and sets out to bring down Bane. Helena offers to join to help take him down, but Batman declines as he fears not going to him alone could have severe consequences. Without being able to use the Batmobile to get around for the time being, he climbs to the top of the building and decides to make use out of his new experimental cape glider. He leaps off the structure as he spreads out his cape, which folds out in the shape of the wings of a bat allowing him to glide to the financial district.
After gliding for a while, Batman lands on top of the glass roof of the Stock Exchange building giving him a good look at the situation. Right below him he can make out the figure of Bane, surrounded by several of his goons, all guarding the neutron bomb. He uses a Batarang to cut a hole into the glass to grant him access into the building. After jumping down the hole he lands right in front of Bane, quickly alerting him of his presence. This is the first time he has gotten a good look at the terrorist; before him stands a very big and muscular man, wearing a black luchador-esque mask which conceals his face. Batman catches a glimpse of a big tank filled with Venom on his back with tubes attached to it, all injected straight into his skin and mask. His goons, all having taken some of the strength-enhancing drugs as well, point their guns at the Dark Knight but Bane tells them to lower their weapons. After telling them to step back he stretches out his arms, challenging the Dark Knight to a one-on-one fight. Batman agrees, taking off his utility belt and preparing for the fight. He laughs, his voice muffled by the mask, asking himself if he will be a match to him or if he will go down as easily as his other opponents as Batman charges towards him.
Batman strikes first, getting in several powerful blows, but it doesn’t even seem to phase his opponent. He pauses for a short moment and tries to continue the fight, but Bane catches his hand before it can hit him. Batman hears something crack when he clenches his fist, feeling that his glove has been damaged. Before he can recover, Bane grabs him with both arms and headbutts him with a lot of force. The blow almost makes him lose his balance, but his opponent grabs him by the throat before he falls to the ground and punches him right in the face several times. Batman starts to taste blood in his mouth but is unwilling to give up so easily. He releases himself from Bane’s grip and tackles him to the ground, using all his strength to kick him in the face several times. Again, his opponent is unperturbed by his attempts to fight back, simply taking the blows without flinching. As Bane doesn't fight back Batman becomes overconfident for a moment, not noticing as his arm reaches out for his leg. He grabs a hold of it and janks it towards him, making him fall to the ground again.
‘’You know, I used to admire you. Hearing all about your heroics back when I was growing up motivated me to be better than I already was. But now that I am not a bright-eyed and naive child anymore, I’m finally able to see you for what you really are; A pathetic elderly man, having to rely on some high-tech suit to even attempt to compete with me!’’
Bane raises his fists in the air, bringing them down with full force on the chest of the Dark Knight. Although his suit absorbs most of the strike to prevent his ribs from breaking upon impact, Batman still feels the pain from his attack and notices the armor on his chest having shattered.
‘’Over the years, I've dreamt of being the one who would kill the legendary Batman. However, I have recently come to the conclusion that killing you would only end your agony and silence your shame.’’
He attempts to fight back again and gathers his strength to reply to his opponent’s comments, but Bane silences him with a nasty kick in the gut before he can do so.
‘’I don't think you quite know who I am. I’m not some scarecrow or a riddler. I’m not a jester or a clown! I’m not a flightless bird nor a cryogenic scientist! And most importantly, i am not some rich guy playing dress-up!’’
Bane begins continuously stomping Batman in the face, slowly cracking open his mask more and more with each kick. By the time his cowl has been completely destroyed Batman has been knocked unconscious, having collapsed after all of the attacks.
‘’ I AM BANE! AND I WILL BREAK YOU!’’
As his goons cheer him on, Bane picks up the defeated body of the Dark Knight and raises it over his head. He slowly spins around like he’s showing a trophy to his friends, reveling as the realization that he has become the one to truly break the Bat begins to set in. Batman regains consciousness, but only just in time to feel himself getting driven down towards the ground as he collides with Bane’s knee.
With one nasty snap, he quickly finds his body in anguish as his spine has completely shattered. Bane drops him to the ground and commands his henchmen to take the bombs and go away, taking the broken mask of the Dark Knight with him as a trophy before leaving himself as well. Batman tries to move, but becomes terrified when he notices that he is unable to even move. With this one attack, Bane has paralyzed the Bat.
Quite some time passes before someone arrives to pick up the wounded Bruce. He gets taken to the Wayne Building instead of a hospital in order to preserve his secret identity, where he gets hooked up to some medical equipment to keep him alive. As the days pass by, Gotham begins to decay more and more into chaos as the threat of a neutron bomb decimating the city gets closer. Each attempt made by the police force to disarm the explosive has led to nothing, leading to many of the city’s residents deciding to get out while they still can. Despite Bruce being in no state at all to fight back against Bane, he stubbornly refuses to leave the city as he believes his back will he recovered enough before the bomb is set to go off. Along with this he also feels personally responsible for letting this happen and does not want Gotham to fall under his watch.
Less than a week is now left before the bomb is set to go off. Bane had taken his bomb to the city centre, where his henchmen are guarding him all day to prevent anyone from interfering with his plan. With no sign of his spine recovering in the slightest, Helena and Barbara are urging Bruce to leave the city with them, as they know nobody else is left to stop him. Barbara is close to converting the damaged Batmobile to an airborne vehicle and tells him it could be fit to get them out of there. However, he does not want to hear any of it and keeps insisting that he can find a solution. In an old scientific report about the Venom drug he read some time ago, he noticed it stating that taking the drug can completely heal severe wounds within moments. With his mind set on this new opportunity to save Gotham he asks Barbara to get him a sample of the substance, hoping this will put him in a position to fight back again. Despite her hesitation she agrees to do so, although she warns him that this is only a short-term solution for a permanent problem for him.
When she returns, Bruce has removed the armor from his arms and prepared a new suit to help him control himself while under the effects of the drug. Barbara reluctantly hands him a syringe filled with Venom, but before she does so she tells him that the scientific reports he read left out some important details. It's true that taking Venom can heal severe and permanent injuries in a matter of moments, but the catch is that once the drug’s effects have worn off the injuries will just return, sometimes getting even worse as a result. Bruce tells her he is more than willing to sacrifice himself if it means that he is gonna be able to save Gotham once more as he grabs the syringe out of her hand. Before any of them can react, he slams the needle into his skin and presses the plunger down allowing the substance to enter into his bloodstream. Bruce feels the effects hitting him almost instantly, and before he knows it he finds himself able to stand on his own again. While he struggles to keep himself from succumbing to the drug’s effects he puts on a new suit; an outfit plated with a gold-colored metal and with a reinforced cowl and cape. Ready for battle, he makes his way to the newly designed Batwing to take himself to the city center to face off against Bane.

Bugis Street in Singapore used to be world famous for its raucous charm and nocturnal activities equivalent of Patpong (Phuket), a red-light district known for its bars and transvestite prostitutes or katies (the anglicized version of the Thai kathoey). However, in 1985 the area was redeveloped into a sanitized shopping experience for the whole family. Unfortunately, the fragrance of its famous past lingers no more...
History
The original street was once a well-known "world" tourist attraction frequented by tourists, especially in the 1950s and 1960s, when it was notorious for the transvestites found there. It was popular with British colonial soldiers and seamen on shore leave and with USA troops on rest and recreation during the Vietnam War.

Lingerie Football League All-Star Games Tour; Sydney, Australia
Tonight the American born Lingerie Football League enjoyed its virgin game on Australian soil.
All Phones Arena was blessed with the privilege of staging the first game in Australia.
What was on offer? - tits and ass of course, and a good spread of athletic talent. We really enjoyed the girls individual celebrations after they scored the all important touchdowns, made even more visually titillating with spray tan thanks to the all important sponsor - Mobile Spray Tanning.
If your into NRL you might be into this, and if your into pro wrestling aka sports entertainment, you will probably have a strong appreciation of this unusual, titillating and exciting sport that seems to be perfect for a good number of Australian alpha males.
Well done players and promoters for putting on a heck of a show. Looks like this special brand of footy has already developed more than just a grass roots fan base down under in Australia.
Promo...
The 2012 LFL All-Star Game will feature 32 of the most athletic and beautiful women across the league as the Western and Eastern Conference teams clash in front of projected capacity crowds in Sydney and Brisbane, two cities that the LFL has identified as being potential homes for two of the franchises in 2013. Expect these games to be as explosive, combative and competitive as all the LFL games are as each player strives to impress for selection into the teams in 2013.
LFL Football, described at the 'ultimate live sports experience', has developed one of its largest international fan bases in Australia having developed a cult-like following on Australian broadcaster Fuel TV since the league’s inception in 2009. As much success as the LFL has enjoyed in the US, internationally the appetite for LFL Football has been even greater being broadcast in nearly 43 countries and drawing near capacity crowds in previous international game play in Mexico and Canada. The appeal internationally has been strong enough for the LFL to announce the formation and kick-off of several international leagues to include LFL Canada (Fall 2012), LFL Australia (Summer 2013) and LFL Europa (2014).
Newsflash: Federal Minister for Sport Kate Lundy Is Not A Fan!...
Federal Minister for Sport Kate Lundy: "Stop the Lingerie Football League in Australia. Our daughters deserve more. The LFL is about giving viewers an opportunity to perve on women in gear that looks like it's come from an adult shop. It's called the Lingerie Football League because it's almost exclusively about the underwear."
Women of the match?
Chloe Butler and Liz Gorman seemed to get over pretty well with the Sydney fan base. Not bad looking for football players, and multi talented for certain.

Shortly after the murder on Thomas and Martha Wayne, businessman William Earle took control over Wayne Enterprises. It didn’t take long for him to move away from Thomas’ morals and ideas for the company as he began focusing solely on making as much profit as possible. When the government of the United States asked Wayne Enterprises to create weapons for the military in return for a hefty amount of money, he immediately agreed. Lucius Fox was one of the people working on designing new military vehicles. He came up with the WE-278 “Trojan Horse” prototype; a heavily armored troop transport that can ram through enemy defenses and walls with ease in order to drop several troops right in enemy territory. The prototype was eventually actually produced and tested, but Earle shut down the project before it could be finalized and actually used in the military.
Years later, Lucius was demoted by Earle to the Applied Sciences Division. The “Trojan Horse” and other rejected prototypes of his are gathering dust in this part of the Wayne Tower. However, as Bruce Wayne reappears in the public eye again after years, Lucius is surprised about his interest in his division when he visits the Tower. Bruce especially takes a liking to the Trojan Horse, and after a quick test ride he asks if the vehicle also comes in black.
After replacing the spots to carry soldiers with compartments to store gadgets, a new paint job and a better engine the prototype has been dubbed the “Batmobile” and is now in use by the Dark Knight during night patrols. Although the vehicle lacks any actual weapons, the fact it can achieve a top speed of 45 miles per hour, can ram through almost any barricade and has very strong armor still makes the Batmobile very useful.
After returning home from a long shift at the Wayne Tower, Lucius Fox turns on the tv to watch his favorite show. However, the broadcast is interrupted by a breaking newsflash showing the mysterious vigilante known as Batman getting pursued by the GCPD in a tank-like vehicle. It doesn’t take long for Lucius to connect the dots as he sees his rejected prototype driving through the streets of Gotham.
——————————
My take on the Batmobile, heavily inspired by the Tumbler design from Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. Enjoy!
Newsflash: someone suggested that this might be rose of Sharon, actually a hibiscus. This tree starts blooming months ago, but releases a burst of blooms in mid-summer. Not too much odor, but lovely. Camarillo, California

Red Belly Black Snake - shot in my back yard in our beach house near Merimbula. This one is about 5 feet long.
From Wikipedia:
The red-bellied black snake (Pseudechis porphyriacus) is a species of elapid snake native to Australia. Described by George Shaw in 1794, it is one of eastern Australia's most commonly encountered snakes. Averaging around 1.25 metres (4 ft 1 in) in length, it has glossy black upperparts, bright red or orange flanks and a pink or dull red belly. It is not an aggressive species and generally retreats from encounters with people, but can attack if provoked. Although its venom is capable of causing significant illness, no deaths have been recorded from its bite, which is less venomous than other Australian elapid snakes. The venom contains neurotoxins, myotoxins, coagulants and has haemolytic properties; victims can also lose their sense of smell.

Had a good work day. Took an early lunch so that I could sit in on a work-related webinar at 1pm (during which I finished making the wire bird I started at the weekend). Had a busy afternoon, but broke off at 5pm to go and post the bird to its recipient, then carried on up to the heath, and the pond.
Someone's chucked a couple of traffic cones into the pond - idiots - but it did make for a pop of colour on a very dull (and weirdly warm, humid and windy) day. I squatted down to take this photo, and soon noticed all the geese flocking towards me, clearly hoping I was there to feed them. I wasn't. Sorry, geese!
Came back and put the bins away, then called on our downstairs neighbour to say hello - first time in quite a while, and we had a lovely long catch-up. Carried on with a last few bits of work when I got in.
Newsflash, I'm starting to feel a bit better today! I don't want to speak too soon, but I have to appreciate it while I feel good :)
The body shaming thing has been going on forever, obviously, but for whatever reason it is really pissing me off lately. Maybe cause they're coming for Lizzo.
Newsflash: If it isn't your body, you should shut the fuck up about someone's size, what they choose to wear, what you think their health is, or anything! And by the way, prefacing your comments to make it seem like you're concerned for someone's health is total bullshit and we all know it.
OTHER PEOPLE'S BODIES ARE NOT YOUR BUSINESS.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

So Newsflash. I haven't upload any photos in like 6 months. That's mostly because I was getting some things done and getting ready to move. So I moved. I ended up moving to England! Kinda neat! I'll be here for the next two years and am hoping to travel a lot of Europe. This is a place called "Wicken Fen" It's in Cambridgeshire. About 20 minutes from where I am living.
of my pyramid-shaped bag. [Newsflash! Just learned that this type of bag is called a berlingot!!! Who knew???] It's 8 3/4" X 5 1/2", which is huge by my standards. Need to iron the bias tape on top, as it sticks out a bit. Thanks to many online friends for some of the fabrics here!
I used Poppyprint's awesome tutorial for making square patchwork super efficiently. It's here:
