*quotation from Doctor Dolittle’s Birthday Book, by Hugh Lofting
We -- that is, my dog Gub-Gub and I -- must be gone for a week or so. I’ll check in now and again as time permits...until then, keep smiling and have a lovely walk into SpringTime! :-)

Heading over to Brooklyn Beta this morning and rather quite excited about it, don't you know. Will be milling around with a few acquaintances whom I know largely via the Twitters, hence the avatar pin.
But seriously, the resemblance is remarkably hard to miss. Comically so. For reals, you'll laugh.
See you there!

AS-19 USS Proteus
Naval auxiliary ships carry out a variety of missions in support of combatants. Along with destroyer tenders, the submarine tenders are the largest of the active auxiliaries. Their crews are formed mainly of technicians and repairmen. USS Proteus was commissioned as a diesel sub tender in 1944. After participating in the Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay and tending submarines briefly in Japan after the war, Proteus was "retired" to New London, Connecticut, where she was assigned - though not in commission - as the "station ship" at the Submarine Base, providing support services from 1947 until 1959.
USS Proteus was overhauled and reconfigured in 1959-60 to service FBM subs. With the new strategic submarines - and their missiles, launch systems, and nuclear power - came the need for a new class of tender. Since USS Hunley (AS-31) - purpose-designed and built for that mission - was some years from completion, a quicker alternative had to be found. Meanwhile, Proteus had served more than a decade at New London, tending both the older World War II boats still in service and their nuclear-powered counterparts coming on line in increasing numbers. As such, she was still in good condition and ready to sail. Thus, Proteus was quietly moved to Charleston Naval Shipyard, cut in half, and fitted with a new 44-foot hull "plug," fabricated in place. This additional section contained special nuclear-material storage facilities, handling, testing, and machining areas, and other necessities for servicing both nuclear-powered attack and ballistic-missile submarines. Other specialty shops and machinery were installed to maintain the fire control, navigation, and launcher systems that first appeared on the new SSBNs. The final element of the conversion was the installation of a huge X-Y crane, capable of lifting more than 30 tons, and equipped with extension arms that could swing out over a submarine to load equipment, supplies, and most importantly - Polaris missiles.
Proteus's conversion was completed in late 1960, and in January 1961, she hosted George Washington at New London, completing the first tender refit of an SSBN. Since the original Polaris missile had a range of only 2,500 miles, the early SSBNs had to be based relatively far forward to be able to reach targets deep in the European and Asian continents. Therefore, in March 1961, Proteus established the first advance SSBN refit site at Holy Loch, Scotland, where her first "customer" was USS Patrick Henry (SSBN-599). Later relieved by Hunley, Proteus then instituted a second advance SSBN site at Rota, Spain. The Chief of Naval Operations deployed Submarine Squadron 16 to Rota, Spain, on Jan. 28, 1964, and embarked upon USS Proteus (AS-19). USS Lafayette (SSBN 616) completed its first FBM deterrent patrol with the Polaris missile and commenced the first refit and replenishment at Rota. After the second USS Holland (AS-32) was completed, Proteus was off yet again - this time with USS Daniel Boone (SSBN-629) - to inaugurate a third overseas basing site at Apra Harbor, Guam, where she had already tended submarines during World War II. Polaris system support continued until the last SSBN - the Robert E. Lee, departed Guam in July 1981. Subsequently she was retired from FBM service and was fitted as an attack submarine tender.
In addition to carrying out her primary duties both at Guam and on WESTPAC cruises between 1964 and 1992, Proteus and her crew also provided assistance for typhoon victims and refugees from the fall of Saigon and helped out during the aftermath of the Mount Pinatubo eruption. She was finally decommissioned in September 1992 - and even then was recycled for service as a berthing ship (IX-518) at Bremerton until 1999.

I looked at this picture and thought to myself, I don't have a boyfriend why? Even I think I'm cute. Damn.
orange show 2007 gala.
So this is pretty much the hottest my flickr photo stream will EVAR be. Last of the series. It was fun. To get the full effect you should listen to Slavic Soul Party while viewing this series.
And I should mention the full Orange Show 2007 Gala photo set is up as well.

DDG-2 Charles F. Adams Class
The Charles F. Adams class guided missile destroyers were constructed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. A particularly versatile fighting ship, their design was based on that of the highly successful Forrest Sherman class of gun destroyers. They were the first destroyers planned and built as a guided missile ships, and the most heavily armed ships at the time of their construction. Designed to meet the new challenges of the Cold War, the ships bristled with more antenna and guidance systems than guns.
Designed primarily to provide anti-air defense for carriers, for air defense the class was fitted with long range surveillance radars capable of detecting aircraft at ranges greater than 300 kilometers. The major anti-aircraft weapon is the Standard surface-to-air missile with a range of more than 35 kilometers. Two 5-inch rapid-fire guns are used for air defence, surface action and shore bombardment, delivering 70 rounds a minute on to targets up to 20 kilometers away. Anti-submarine capability is provided by a powerful sonar under the bow. For close-range attack, torpedoes are launched from tubes on each side of the ship.
The heart of the ship's fighting capability is a computer bank, which correlates information from all sources and automatically assigns weapons to counter a threat. Propulsion consists of four superheated boilers and two main engines which produce more than 70,000 shaft horsepower at top speed. Four turbo generators driven from the boilers provide 2000 kilowatts of electrical power. Living conditions were crowded, but all living spaces are air-conditioned and every effort was made to provide a reasonable standard of comfort.
The keel for the USS Charles F. Adams, named for Charles Francis Adams, Secretary of the Navy from 1929 to 1933, was laid on June 16, 1958. The Adams was the first in a line of 23 ships.
The Royal Australian Navy bought three Adams Class Destroyers from Defoe Shipbuilding. Substantially modified, they were re-classed as Perth Class Destroyers. From time to time, a class of ship emerges that is so successful that it continues to be useful well beyond normal life expectation. The Royal Australian Navy's three American built Charles F. Adams class destroyers, constructed during the 1960s, are examples of such an exceptional design. HMAS Perth was the first of three guided missile destroyers (DDGs) built in the United States for Australia. She was commissioned in July 1965 and arrived in Australia in March 1966. Her sister ships were Hobart and Brisbane. They all saw operational service during the Vietnam War. . All three RAN DDG's underwent an extensive modernisation of their Combat System between 1986-1992, with Brisbane being the first to undergo the upgrades to see her through to an anticipated de-commissioning year of 2001. HMAS Perth decommissioned on 15 October 1999, and HMAS Hobart on 12 May 2000.
In the early 1980s the DDG Upgrade program, applicable to all ships of the DDG-2 class, updated the DDG-2 combat system to a digital computer-controlled basis but did not make the system compatible with the SM-2 missile. The firepower and engagement envelope of the DDG-2s, therefore, remained governed by the capabilities of the Standard SM-1 missile. The DDG-2 Upgrade Program was relatively expensive, however, and only six of the 23 DDG-2s in the fleet were initially scheduled to receive this upgrade package. The six-ship program cost about $200 million per ship and included combat system improvements beyond those for the AAW system alone, as well as hull and machinery overhaul items costing approximately $50 million.
Despite periodic modernizations, the class was retired in the early 1990s. Modernization with the New Threat Upgrade (NTU) package was considered for these ships but was terminated since modernization would not have been cost effective given the limited service lives remaining. The New Threat Upgrade program built upon the CG/SM-2 Upgrade program by providing further radar and fire control improvements. It also gives the ship a capability to use the SM-2 (Block II) missile, a faster and still more capable version of the SM-2 AAW missile.
As part of the 1989 Amended budget submission, the decision was made to accelerate the retirement of these ships to achieve complete retirement of the class by the end of FY 93. The highly capable, multi-mission, AEGIS equipped, Arleigh Burke (DDG 51) class replaced these ships.

Three different songs inspired this, all of them Evanescence, which is my obsession =P And the title comes from Breathe No More. The other two were Imaginary and Everybody's Fool.
So thisis the result of what happens when procrastination fails and leads to frustration, you see I'm supposed to be working on a paper but I was getting extremely frustrated so I opened GIMP and started playing, unfortunately now I've got to go back to the paper =P
I was tired of flooding my stream with the same pictures so now I'm mixing it up a bit, hope you like it =]
View on black or I'll throw you into a pond to swim with fishes =P

For those who have been wondering what I have been up to and why I haven't been on Flickr so much recently...... I have been building up my portfolio on iStockPhoto.com.
If you want to see my other stock photography images click here and look for the 'View Portfolio' link on the right hand side.

The shot was horrible. It was painful. It was like the longest, deepest, body cramping bee sting you've ever had. And then there was the part that felt like rubbing alcohol was being poured into my body. And it lasted three whole minutes, not one. And my blood pressure dropped to 69/50, so I had to stay there awhile.
Now I feel awful. In addition to the back pain, I have a sore place on my back that feels like the bee left his stinger. If it's going to work, it will take three to eight days. And I have to go back for a second shot regardless. It's a two-shot system. In two weeks.
Meanwhile, he wants me to go on Cymbalta so that I can stop being so frustrated. He said it will cover the rest of the pain, too.
But he also said there's a good possibility that this isn't what's causing my low-back pain. He thinks it's something to do with the facet joints--maybe arthritis, maybe injury. The shot is only supposed to work on the sciatica, which isn't nearly as painful as the back. But sometimes it gets the back too. Refreshing to hear.
My sister is now on my friend Lucy's Lyme bandwagon. They both insist I have it. I ordered the significant test, and it came last week. I've been too chicken (and in too much pain) to get tested. It will be among the rare times that I pray for a negative.
