Here is my home brew electronic keyer project going into its box. It uses a PIC12F675 micro-controller from Microchip. I wanted the challenge of writing the code in assembly language.
Mostly junk box parts, the case was an old intercom or something like that. The project worked out pretty well though someday I might go back and make some changes with the speed control. That is to say I was lazy and only used 8 bits of the 10 bit A/D. Also I recently noticed that there is probably an unused I/O line and I might add straight key functionality to it.

CEA Project Logistics have a proven track record in specialised transport, one of our areas of expertise is Helicopter Transportation having completed several projects previously for the Sikorsky group and their Seahawk SH-60. This experience was a key factor when a new client chose our specialised transport services for several Agusta Westland AW149 medium class helicopters.
The Royal Thai Navy have ordered 5 Aircraft all to be delivered in 2017, CEA were employed to carry out all unloading at Laem Chabang Port and transportation to the Utapao Navy Base for assembly, after assembly the helicopters would fly to their new base in Northern Thailand to replace the Bell UH-1H helicopter.
The helicopters arrived at Laem Chabang Port A-5 on the NYK vessel Oceanus Leader. Each helicopter was shipped on a mafi-trailer with a bespoke fabricated saddle for the rear landing gear. Laem Chabang Terminal Tractors removed the helicopters from the Oceanus Leader positioning them next to the CEA 50 Tonne mobile cranes. Each helicopter was lifted from the mafi-trailer by a specialised hook attached to the main rotor, the five shackles of the hook were fixed to the main rotor by five lifting slings. The helicopters were lowered on to awaiting Air Ride trailers each fitted with a saddle for the rear landing gear.
Wooden chocks were placed on the front landing gear and lashing applied. CEA further secured the cargo with more two more lashing slings connected to the rings on either side of the fuselages. Other aircraft accessories were also loaded and secured. After each helicopter was lashed and secured the convoy began the 70km journey to the Royal Thai Navy base at Utapao, Rayong province.
A CEA escort vehicle was used throughout this specialised transport project to ensure maximum safety on the route to Utapao. Upon arrival at Utapao, the CEA teams removed the lashing allowing the 50 Tonne mobile cranes to lift the helicopters from the trailers using the same method as before and placing them in their respective hangers. Project duration from start to finish was 7 hours.

The Augustine Monastery dating back to the fourteenth century. It was an important centre of religious, social and cultural life and sheltered such illustrious men as Martin Luther who stayed here for one night on his way to Rome on the eve of his excommunication from the church.
Every 10 weeks or so I need to come up with a new project for my continuing quilt students. This is the one I'll present tomorrow in class. It came from the Marcus Bros. fabric website.
The beginning students in my class make sampler quilts entirely by hand. The continuing students have the option of making the projects by hand or machine. This one was pieced on the machine and appliqued by hand. I plan to hand quilt it.
I first saw Jovan when I was taking photos of my previous Stranger, Anna. I watched him interacting with his friends and then took a few candids of the group. I asked them where they were from. They said that they were from a Northern New Jersey town, having driven down to the Jersey Shore to check out the beaches--and the people. I learned that Jovan and his friends were into a variety of sports--from basketball to boxing. As I took photos, they asked me about my lens, and I told them the difference between prime and zoom lenses. Jovan and his buddies were very friendly. I enjoyed getting to know them. When I asked Jovan to take a photo for my stranger project, he readily agreed. In the first few shots, he appeared a bit stiff and more serious than he was when I was speaking to him. So I asked him to "be playful." This photo is the result.
My time with Jovan and his friends served as a reminder to me that one of the most important ingredients in portrait shooting is in making the subject feel relaxed. It's as much about the relationship with the subject as it is about the technical aspects of the shoot.
It was a pleasure getting to know Jovan. I hope he and his friends like the photo.

Bromine, symbol Br, atomic number 35 is a red, non-metallic liquid discovered in 1826 by Antoine Balard in a salt marsh. *Though perhaps a German student Carl Lowig found it first but didn't get around to claiming it. Bromine is not something you want to stick your nose in, as it is irritating, burning and hazardous, with a noxious vapor.
The name bromine comes from the Greek for "bromos" or stench. The stench might even be that attributed to a stinky goat.
From bromine, we get bromides, which are compounds containing bromine. An example is silver bromide is used in photographic processes.
Bromine/bromide has also influenced language. That is the use of bromide to mean dull, uninteresting, trite and tiresome. To quote wordsmith.org: " In earlier times, potassium bromide used to be taken as a sedative. So any statement that was intended to be soothing ("Don't worry, everything will be OK.") acquired the name bromide. Eventually any commonplace or tired remark and anyone uttering such remarks came to be known as a bromide."
From this boring "bromide" comes "bromidic," the adjective form.

My print was created by screen print with 3 screens for 3 color process. Due to some learning curve errors, in the end my screens were created by painting the negative space with screen filler.
I used the image of a goat after reading a reference to "stench of the goat" relating to the Greek word for stench. This goat is standing by a marsh and inhaling the nasty red vapor of bromine (but he doesn't mind, because he already smells).
After I had designed the image, I went on to read about the linguistic connection between bromine and bromide/bromidic. I thought that was really interesting. I always like when sedation leads to new words. Nowadays I don't think these terms are used much, but we should put them back into use. It can be the new cool slang if we get the right people saying it in public. It's basically the equivalent to "triflin'" (trifle-ing) anyway.

I love this project, everybody's prints, and can't wait to see where this goes. Thanks to azuregrackle and everybody else. Various internet sources were used in obtaining the above info about bromine.

By the end of the century, sub-alpine meadows could shrink up to 27 percent at Mount Rainier National Park and disappear entirely at North Cascades National Park. To understand the effects of climate change on pollinators and protect our sub-alpine meadows, the Cascades Butterfly Project will be monitoring three sites in North Cascades National Park, two in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, and four in Mount Rainier National Park.

Led by the Fergus Conservation District and landowner Mark Machler, work on the Big Spring Creek restoration project near Lewistown, Mont., was completed in the summer of 2017. NRCS developed the restoration plan and paid for a portion of the construction through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program. The project restored the natural meander of Big Spring Creek, which had been straightened in the 1960s. In addition to improving fish and wildlife habitat, the restoration will curtail erosion, sedimentation, and flooding. June 2017. Fergus County, Montana.

I came across some photos of a project from last year. I was asked to put together the parts for a model of Poole Bus Station for someone to build. (Not really my sort of thing at all)
I duly designed, printed and dispatched it. To keep the costs reasonable I only actually built a trial of a small part of it - the area marked in red on the diagram.
The whole model comes out at over four feet long (!!!), and takes an amazing amount of card, but if anyone fancies a crazy challenge then let me know.
