From Automobile Mag (http://www.automobilemag.com/reviews/sedans/0412_mercedes_cls500/index.html) -
Which brings us to the original question provoked by the CLS: If Mercedes has the CL and CLK coupes and the E- and S-class sedans, what's the point of the CLS? The beautiful thing is that there is no point, except to create a slobber-inducing car. Sure, you could get most of the CLS's running gear in an E500 for less money, but compared with the CLS, the E500 is like Ashlee Simpson next to Jessica Simpson. It's a fine-looking car, but it doesn't cause passersby to swallow their gum doing a double-take. Since the Jaguar XJ went all upright, the Maserati Quattroporte is arguably the only four-door that approaches the CLS's level of sensuality. The CLS might not be a coupe itself, but that's what it's gunning for.
And that's why the underlying message rings true: the CLS is something new. It's sedan as sex object, a sculpted, sultry redefinition of the premise that sedans, no matter how fast, are restrained by the dictates of four-door practicality, and that's an idea original enough to stand on its own.

A native of the South Carolina lowcountry, Carew Rice (1899 – 1971) was the son of James Henry Rice, Jr., a noted conservationist and newspaper columnist. As a student in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Carew Rice discovered the art of cutting silhouettes and worked from the Depression era up until 1970, when he cut silhouettes for South Carolina’s Tricentennial celebration.
Rice subtly challenged viewers with reductive renditions of Old South nostalgia. His cautionary tales were grounded in conservative values, but he liberally embraced the field hands, chain gangs, and working-class lifestyles of marginalized minorities. His black subjects, sometimes peppered with Gullah dialect, were love letters to people he lived among and respected.
Being an artist of practicality as well as of principles, Rice also cut picturesque lowcountry landscapes, church architecture, wildfowl, and Charleston’s intricate wrought iron gates to produce commercially viable merchandise. Some of these scenes were applied to drinking glasses and stationery; some of his characters became templates for stuffed dolls for children. He traveled the world creating silhouettes of politicians, royalty, and ordinary folks, and he became well known throughout the South for portraiture, landscapes, and scenes of everyday life meticulously rendered in this unusual and exacting medium.

Was testing different ways of presenting the cone. Spade or scoop. After numerous attempts with the scoop, decided to go with the spade as it looked more organic and freeform, compared the the perfectly round scoop.
K took a look at the photo and the first thing he sad was "That's got to drip". Second thing he said was "Call it the minute scoop". Guess there is a trade off between me wanting it to look organic and generous and the practicality of it since being in tropical Singapore its not the most friendly weather for gelato stability.
On the other hand, having such hot weather and the speed at which Singaporeans work(eat), it might get eaten before it has a chance to melt.

Imagine seeing this super-fast car appear in your rear-view mirror. The chance is small, but possible, because the Toyota GT-One is street legal. Only one example was built, necessary to meet the regulations of the GT1 endurance racing championship. Toyota made no concessions to luxury or practicality. The street version only differs from its racing brother by a different rear spoiler, higher ground clearance and smaller tank. Developed by Toyota’s motorsport department and motorsport specialist Dallara, the GT-One has a carbon fibre monocoque and body panels, which keeps the weight extremely low. The 3.6 V8 engine, derived from the Group C racing cars, delivers 550 hp thanks to two turbos. Toyota built six racing cars. Because the GT1 rule changed from a minimum of 25 road cars to a minimum of 1 in 1998, the Japanese only produced one road car.

While the thought of a tiny bath in a Nivea tin is certainly amusing, the practicalities are, to say the least, challenging. Imagine trying to cram yourself into that little blue disc. First, you'd need to invent a shrinking ray, which is a whole other project. Then, you'd have to deal with the lid. It's a tight fit for your fingers, so imagine trying to navigate a whole body in there. You'd be wedged in, unable to move, and probably smell faintly of a grandmother's purse for the rest of the day.
Even if you managed to contort yourself into the tin, the water situation would be comical. A thimbleful of lukewarm water, perhaps a single tear of despair, would be all you'd get. You'd be more "moistened" than "bathed." And let's not forget the cleanup. The little crescent of water would slosh out with every tiny twitch, leaving a puddle on your bedside table. A Nivea tin bath is less of a luxurious soak and more of a deeply regrettable, slightly greasy life choice.
Now here's a wacky one, built in 1970 this machine attempted to marry four-door practicality with a design we'd only ever seen in episodes of UFO!
From now on you will address me as Commander Straker!
According to the blurb:
"With rear-hinged back doors, turbo gauges set into a pod that swings out with the driver's door and a 'manometer' to measure air pressure on the car's hull, the SRV illustrated Vauxhall's forward thinking approach to engineering and design, which still exists today (if the spontaneously combusting Zafira is anything to go by, that statement is a stretch!)
SRV was largely the work of Wayne Cherry, the American who headed up Vauxhall design well into the 1970's. Very much a concept, with no pretense at production viability, Cherry claimed the car's shape was inspired by the cab-forward Le Mans racing cars of the time, although a mock 2.3L Slant-Four engine formed from wood GRP and aluminium nipped in the bud any illusions of actual power and performance!
But SRV's flush door handles, electric self-levelling suspension and aerofoil to improve downforce were all remarkably prescient for the time."

On Friday we toured the S. C. Johnson & Son headquarters in Racine, Wisconsin. Johnson Wax's Administration Building and Research Tower are registered U.S. Historic Landmarks and were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, commissioned by H. F. Johnson.
The Research Tower is no longer used, having been declared a safety hazard in 1982 because of its narrow stairwells. The tower is eight stories tall, consisting of a round core surrounded by a square exterior of brick and Pyrex tubing. Each level has a square floor and a round mezzanine overlooking it — you can sort of see the round core mezzanines in the photo here if you squint.
Wright hit upon the idea of using Pyrex tubing as "windows" as a way to admit natural light while obscuring the view of anything outside. He originally wanted to build the facilities on the prairie outside of Racine, but when the Johnsons sited it in the city for practicality, the tubing allowed him to block the employees' views of surrounding buildings.

I have sort of a love-hate relationship with military engineers. Perhaps influenced by my early love for Robert Heinlein and Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, I greatly admire the "can-do" practicality of military engineers.
On the other hand, the second semester of my freshman year at Mississippi State, I roomed with a ROTC engineer major. I should have known better since he'd written an essay to our honors English prof titled, "My Grade Is Unfair or Why B's Sting." But I was young and stupid.
Our first day in the room he put a piece of duct tape down the middle of our desk and said, "the left side is mine, you stay off of it." He got up at 6:30 every morning to take his clothes over to the campus laundry; I loved the Dylan lyric, "His clothes were dirty, but his hands were clean."
Let's just say the relationship quickly attained its foreordained doom. And, for the record, my conduct was NOT wholly admirable during this period -- in a moment of uncharacteristic penance on the morning he moved out, I called my mother to confess some of my (lesser) freshman sins.
My military roomie has gone on to bigger and better things -- he (no kidding) became a two star Air Force general and was on the special commission to study the Columbia space shuttle disaster and now plays an important role in our national security planning.
I'm glad to have my ex-roomie doing such important work -- he seemed smart, upright, and diligent -- but I don't regret not being his roomie for more than a couple of weeks.
Testing a Brompton for day-to-day practicality, including a visit to the recycling point. The huge front bag was crammed full of a month's worth of plastic bottles, but I still needed my rack bag to take the rest! Who needs a car for that? I could have made the same trip on my upright tourer-mtb using four panniers, or for even more capacity I could have added the rack bag and my messenger bag.
This is an older short wheelbase T6 model: six gears, carrier rack and front luggage block. Although it folds beautifully, for someone my height and leg strength it's an awful bike to ride compared with my Dahon Helios SL. That has faster wheels, more cockpit space for longer reach, bar ends, 9 gears, V-brakes, a long-enough seatpost, and it weighs about 19lbs. I wonder what newer Bromptons with the longer frame and lower handlebars would be like on Edinburgh's hills?

General area of Roundup, Montana beside US Hwy. 12.
Had never seen one of these but knew instantly what it was. I remember my Dad telling of going up into the mountains of Wyoming in the 1960,s to see a setup like this, with a herder tending the band of sheep for months at a time. Clear channel radio at night was the entertainment.
It was setting at the end of the lane, so was able to take several photos of it and look around. The beauty of traveling alone, not sure that stopping to check this out would interest many beside me.

History of the American Sheepwagon
(Text "Sheepwagon, Home on the Range" by Nancy Weidel 2001)
The sheepwagon is an object of fascination to many people today. The sheepwagon itself is a marvel of practicality and efficiency. And people often wonder who invented the sheepwagon. The traditional design of the sheepwagon, along with the placement of such defining interior features as bed, stove, table, and benches had become standardized by 1900, just sixteen years after it's invention. But not every sheepwagon was built just alike; in fact, quite the opposite is true. Designed to provide shelter and heat, mobility and storage, the sheepwagon was the ideal home for the herder.
Although the first wagons had only a canvas flap for a door, a Dutch door, or "stable door" as the English called it, quickly replaced the flap and became one of the sheepwagon's most prominent features. The door's top half could remain open while the bottom stayed shut. This feature served several purposes; with the top open, the herder could hear and see his sheep. The open top door also provided ventilation for the wagon and modulated the heat of the stove, which could be quite intense. A closed bottom door also kept out the herder's dogs and other animals. According to ranchers, however, the primary function of the Dutch door was to allow a herder or camptender to stand within the wagon - or even sit on the side bench or a box - and still be able to extend his arms through the open top door to hold the horses' reins when the wagon was being moved. The sheepwagon has retained its original interior configuration because the placement of its door on the front, and its component parts such as the bed and stove, utilized the small space in the most efficient manner possible.
One observation of the interior of the western sheepwagon was the remarkable resemblance to a ship's cabin, another version of a compact, efficient living space. Both have well-designed storage areas, built-in benches, retractable or fold-down tables, and a sleeping berth. A story is told of two old sheep-herders, both former sailors, who finally felt at home in the western desert which they described "like being on a dry sea." A term often applied to the deserts and high plains is "a sea of grass," the empty landscape consisting of only two elements, treeless earth against a huge sky, the undulating hills resembling waves on the ocean.
Although no documentary evidence appears to exist that would confirm it, most experts agree the first sheepwagons were probably improvised by sheepmen of the northern territories since it was here that they needed protection from the harsh weather. They began with a standard wagon box about ten feet long and three feet wide. The bows of such light freight of farm wagons could easily be covered with canvas and outfitted with perhaps a bedroll inside. Adding a built-in bunk and fastening a small stove to the floor were the next logical steps in the evolution of the crude house on wheels.
By the 1900s, as the sheep business continued to expand rapidly throughout the western states, sheepcamps were in demand. A rancher had a choice as to where he could obtain a sheepwagon. He might build one himself or obtain one through the local blacksmith. Blacksmiths played a key role not only in the invention and modification of the first sheepwagons, but also in the subsequent building and repair.

As declared by the Ferrari showroom's little information panel, this 275GTB has quite possibly the lowest mileage of any of it's class, with only 16,000 miles on the clock.
But this is the kind of Ferrari that's desired, the great Grand Tourers of the 1960's and 70's, cars that both looked and sounded the part, but continued to maintain a certain amount of practicality, unlike the much less effort toys of today's new money.

This large communal sheepfold was reconstructed in 2003 as the 48th and final 'installation' of Andy Goldsworthy's seven-year 'Sheepfolds' project for Cumbria County Council. The design in each wall of the square fold uses local slate, a reference to Tilberthwaite's quarrying history.
I thought it was okay, if a bit big for the location and not his best, but H. was more scathing of its practicality. I see her point, but in hindsight I'm not sure unalloyed functionality is the issue – this is an artwork with a secondary purpose, not merely a decorated working structure.

Can technology help prevent and respond to gender-based violence (GBV), particularly in low- and middle-income countries? Increasingly, cell phones, cameras, crowd-sourcing, and mobile apps are being used in innovative ways to address GBV, but questions surrounding ethics, effectiveness, and practicality remain. The Interagency Gender Working Group, U. S. Agency for International Development, Woodrow Wilson Center, CARE, and Population Reference Bureau will host a panel discussion exploring the ethics around new technologies to combat GBV; how effective they are; and what some of the more practical and actionable ways forward might be.

You’ll hear real-life case studies, ground breaking new ideas and hands-on solutions.
The events are for social media newbies as well as the digital die-hards. Coming along to Be Good Be Social will help you understand:
- The practicalities of where to start with social media.
- The benefits of Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, blogging and beyond for third sector organisations.
- The risks involved in your organisation’s social media presence.
- Strategies for effectively engaging with supporters, donors and partners.
- How you can measure your social media success.
Be Good Be Social wouldn’t have evolved as quickly as it has without the support of the third sector sounding board which includes Stuart Glen (One Kind), Marc Bowker (Quarriers), Hugh Wallace (Scottish Museums), Sara Thomas (MND Scotland), Clare McDowall (Oxfam Scotland), Rosie McIntosh (Oxfam Scotland), Julia Morrison (SCVO) and Marie Duguid (The Melting Pot).
Concert and exhibition opening in the evangelical Lutheran church of Augusta Victoria on The Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, on Friday the 16th of December at 6 a clock pm. The exhibition is a complete Biblical cycle of both The Old- and The New Testament developed by the Norwegian, surrealist painter Håkon Gullvåg. The exhibition was in 2005 made as a temporary decoration for Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, which is the national sanctuary of Norway. The motifs will through this show “come home” to their historical context, and will be displayed in the church during both Christmas 2011 and Easter 2012.
Opening speeches will be held by H. E. the Norwegian Minister of Government Administration, Reform and Church affairs Rigmor Aasrud, and by the bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land the Rt. Rev. Dr. Munib A. Younan.
The concert that follows the exhibition opening will be held by the Norwegian chamber ensemble The Trondheim Soloists, the Norwegian musician and composer Henning Sommeroe, together with the Palestinian artist and composer Rim Banna.
Shortly about me:
It’s my passion to create stories and bring back pictures of events, people and places that are rarely seen. It’s a combination of exploration, exposition and artistry that together create a life of adventure and excitement.
In my work it is imperative for me that information be accurate and the images must be respectful of the subject and viewer. My goal is to combine creativity with practicality to capture the best possible images to document events, tell a story, meet the picture editor's deadlines.

3 belt fed machine guns welded together in one chassis, 2 7.62x39mm guns, one 5.56x45mm gun in the middle. Why? Becuase fuck practicality.
Can technology help prevent and respond to gender-based violence (GBV), particularly in low- and middle-income countries? Increasingly, cell phones, cameras, crowd-sourcing, and mobile apps are being used in innovative ways to address GBV, but questions surrounding ethics, effectiveness, and practicality remain. The Interagency Gender Working Group, U. S. Agency for International Development, Woodrow Wilson Center, CARE, and Population Reference Bureau will host a panel discussion exploring the ethics around new technologies to combat GBV; how effective they are; and what some of the more practical and actionable ways forward might be.

Manufacturer: Rogue
Nationality: United states
First assembled: Winter 2212
Birthplace: Lemont, IL
Engine: 8.3 L V10
HP: 800 BHP
0-60: 4.4 seconds
Top speed: 256.23 MPH
Rogue's lineup met an expansion in the spring to 2211, with the arrival of the 800-4 assault. The 800-4 Assault is a super sedan that blends practicality and performance in one phenomenal package. It also ended up with an early release in the fall of 2211, and sales are doing well. With this success, another variant was born. The 800-4 Assault Wagon is another radical move Rogue has pulled over the year. In terms of performance, the Wagon is slightly slower than the sedan, with 0-60 breaking 4 seconds, and the top speed a lower 256 MPH. In terms of practicality, the wagon bests the sedan, with the extended back offering a larger trunk. It's basically the perfect car for an auto enthusiast who wants everything in a car. A quite, comfortable grocery-getter one day, and a hardcore track runner the next. The Wagon will be available for $87,500 in the upcoming winter of 2212.
