Apparently, even The Avengers were capable of the dreaded ‘newbie’ effect. Scott had only been on the job, sorta, for two days now, granted a Special Provisional Trainee Part Time Membership into the world’s mightiest clubhouse.
The hazing and jokes had begun right away, with Hawkeye making wise remarks about needed his super vision to see Scott’s ‘antman.’ Penis jokes being his go-to humour. Black Widow asked (continuing the trend) if he could grow certain parts of his anatomy, while Falcon was still pissy about getting ‘pwned by a noob,’ whatever THAT meant.
Scott’s first assignment had come in a flurry of alarms and sirens, during his lunchbreak. His ‘office’ was equipped with the latest in Stark Tech (including a wink-wink note about ‘private’ browsing being A-ok) and an impressive array of warning systems, all designed to keep the team hooked into current events and threats.
And at 12.05, all those systems had gone off. At once. The alerts all seemed concentrated in one area of Downtown and since he was still unsure of the protocol regarding first responders, Scott went out into the common room to see who was on the job.
Right away, all the other team members started to harangue poor Scott, asking why the hell he was not already on his way to the emergency, while throwing out a list of all the much more important things THEY had to do.
So Scott went. In the van. With that jingling siren.
On arriving, after spending the best part of 25 minutes explaining to a helpful patrolman that he WAS in fact an Avenger (almost) and not just some weirdo in an old motorcycle suit (without a motorcycle), Scott finally began to get the details.
Something was happening around the corner, something involving a vicious beast with claws and fangs, and the fury of at least 3 raging Suns. Or so the patrolman said
.
This frankly sounded like bullshit. But Scott figured it must be something crazy, or every alarm would not have gone off in HQ. And being prepared was never a bad thing.
Psyching himself up with a few sweet ninja-like moves, Scott decided to come out punching, and hit the Grow button on his suit, zapping up to a good 7 meters (because Scott, unlike most Americans, was willing to embrace the Metric system) tall.
He walked boldly around the corner, ready for anything at all.
Expect for a cat. In a tree.
Scott fancied he could hear the giggling going on at HQ, even from here.

I went to the football game tonight. It was freezing. But fun. :) We pwned.
Plus I have mittens from my school so that makes it all the cooler.
They started turning on the heat at school. This past week I've been eating next to it during lunch, and reading next to it beforehand. It feels so wonderful and cozy. Jesus I love chilly weather.
I'm reading this book that's so easy it's insulting that us freshman have to read it. It's great, don't get me wrong. But it's so easy to read and there are cartoons and yes. It's called The absolutely true diary of a part time indian. It's good, but ridiculously easy.
I'm going to go finish it. And tear down some memories from my walls.

300 more days to go! This shot is a take of one of Boaz's shots, seen here
It breaks God's heart when he sees his people sinning and turning away from him. His very own creation, turning their backs on their creator. It cannot be comprehended. He wants to save us, and is willing to do so but a lot of times our pride and our own human nature gets in the way. We get too caught up in this world, too caught up in our own pleasures to notice God's arm outstretched ready to catch us as we fall. If it weren't for God's mercy, love and grace, we'd be pwned.
Thank you Lord for saving me.
I wanted to take a moment to thank the cast and crew (the cast was crew in many cases. :) ) The environment was hot and filthy; the schedule was grueling. We knew we had 2 days to get the shoot done, as the factory was scheduled for demolition starting the very next day. But never a peep of discontent. Everyone was good humored and willing.
In this shot, Shawn's character Susan has literally pwned the Professor. It's my favorite from the series. :P

Ever feel like something you've wanted or been working towards is always just out of reach? Yeah. You work SO hard and there are no results. *sigh
It's alright though, God knows what he's doing and who am I to judge why he's doing what he's doing. Whatever is thrown my way, I can overcome with Him.
Completely unrelated, I took my pysch exam that I studied hours and hours for. Little sleep = a mehhh spencer. I'm surprised I had enough energy to start jumping around like I did. Its starting to get chilly in buffalo. I had a fleece on but I took it off just to jump around on the staircase. Again, a lot of weird looks from people probably thinking to themselves, "What a silly little asian boy, jumping around with no jacket. Tsk tsk. Asians these days."
heh, hope ya'll had a spectacular weekend Flickr Peeps!

Ever felt like an ugly caterpillar, eager to blossom into a beautiful butterfly? How many *hidden* talents people can carry through a whole life, and never get the chance to show the world how awesome they really are?
What about the cynical pre-judgements? The difficulty of by passing looks and digging deeper within?
Susan Boyle, "ugly", "old", and making people cry with the angels within ;P (and shutting up some people, HA HA, pwned)
the voice >> yeah, but doesn't it sucks rats when you're not awesome at anything?
me >> tsc... shush, you're spoiling the mood... and how come you talk to me only when I'm back to the real world?
the voice >> you're having a "matrix issue"... needing a fix, that's when I come in, it seems.
me >> no, I'm fine... I've been out here in the real world for a couple of days only
the voice >> "oh my god!! Is this 'reality'?!?! I want back to the matrix!!"

The newly designed XK was unveiled in 2005 at the Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany. Jaguar's chief designer Ian Callum (who was also responsible for working on the Aston Martin DB7 and Vanquish coupés) claimed that the inspiration for the shape of the new XK came from his admiration for British actress Kate Winslet's curves. The X150's grille was also inspired from the famous 1961 Jaguar E-Type. Initially launched with normally aspirated and supercharged versions of the 4196cc Jaguar AJ-V8 engines producing 300 and 420bhp in 2007 a 254bhp 3.5 litre V8 was added to the range.
The XK received a facelift in 2009 with minor alterations to front and rear lighting and bumper designs, together with the introduction of a new 5.0-litre V8 for both the naturally aspirated XK and the supercharged XKR. The interior also received some changes, in particular the introduction of the XF style rotary gear selector mated to the new ZF automatic transmission.In 2010, Jaguar added the Speed Pack option, with aerodynamic bodykit and speed limiter increased to 174 mph (280 km/h), and the Black Pack, with black wheels and trim. The XK received a second and more minor facelift in 2011 with new front bumper and light design, The range was further extended in 2011 with the addition of the new 542bhp XJR-S making it the second fastest Jaguar to date after the XJ 220 Supercar
Production of the XK ceased in July 2014 without a replacement model until F-Type.
This Jaguar XKR, and the following picture, are part of a fleet of around ten, privately pwned cars, in sponsored livery, which are displayed at shows throughout the area to raise awareness and donations for the care and recovery of children suffering from brain tumours at Bluebell Wood Childrens Hospice

This is day five of my series, and is my Number #1 favourite sniper rifle.
This was actually the first mod I made, which caused me to start this epic 5 day series. I really wanted to try and put playability into it, and that is where the Working Bolt Action (WBA, for short ;) ) came in.
I have to say, I never really knew too much about this gun after playing Battlefield: Bad Company 2. I realise this gun is not in game at all, but the similar SV-98 is. The SV-98 is my favourite gun in BFBC:2, and so when I thought about starting this series, I knew it had to be in there.
So, I came across the L96A1, but it remained pretty dormant in my head until I put Call of Duty: Black Ops back into my PS3. I jumped straight into Combat Training and started using the L96A1. It pwned. I seriously owned everyone. It was amazing.
I then started to get into airsoft, and after finding the Well L96A1/MB-01, I definitely had to order it.
Well, with it now sitting in front of me, I have to say, it is a beauty. It definitely deserves its Sniper Rifle throne.
Unfortunately, when I was trying out the bipod, some of the paint scratched off, so please excuse that ;)
Thanks,
-Chris
Stormtroopers 365 > Day 39/365
If you are interested in internet freedom, please read the following.
Tomorrow, 12th may 2009, the French parliament will vote on a controversial law which is supposed to solve the problem of copyrighted music and movies being shared on the internet. This law is often called the "HADOPI law", after the name of the "High Authority" that will be created to manage the whole stuff.
Check out these awesome features:
- Get punished because of your neighbour or a robot. It's your fault if your Wi-Fi is not secured. It's your fault if some computer geniuses are able to craft your IP address.
- State-controlled spyware: install it or you can't prove you're innocent. But you aren't totally innocent, are you?
- We are family. Family solidarity has never felt that good: everyone in the household gets deprived of internet because of just one P2P addict.
- Pay for your cut-off internet service: you can't use it, but you sure still pay for it. You can't subscribe anywhere else, anyway, so you don't need this money anymore, right?
- Punishment first, discussion later. Your internet was cut off and you did nothing bad? Well, just file a complaint and wait for a few months. If you are right, your internet will be back. If you were wrong, it will be back as well, since the cut-off period as ran out. Innocent or guilty, who cares, after all?
- Get your business ruined because of one guy. Internet service is vital for your business? You'd better be careful, any of your employee can get it cut off by the HADOPI. Hint: you will recognize the potential P2Per by his eyepatch and the parrot on his shoulder. Fire him before he gets you out from the internet!
- Justice is for n00bs. Terrorists and child molesters can not be identified using their IP address without the decision of the Judiciary. P2P users can. Judiciary got pwned!
More detailed explanation:
The HADOPI law is mainly defended by the French government and the lobbies of mass entertainement (Universal and the like). Apart from these people and those who don't care (mainly because they don't know the real dangers of this law - never really explained in mass media, since the mass media players are the same as the entertainment industry guys, and therefore supporters of the law), almost everyone know that this future law will be (1) inefficient (2) dangerous for individual liberty (3) already outdated by technology. But as usual since the election of President Sarkozy, the government does not care about what people say, especially when it's clever.
How does the HADOPI system work ?
The HADOPI law punishes you for having your IP address identified as downloading copyrighted contents on peer-to-peer networks, without paying for it.
The first flaw is the law is that the IP address is not a reliable data. The Pirate Bay has been dispatching random IP addresses on its trackers for several months in order to prove the inaccuracy of such a proof. In the US, some guys even managed to have the IP address of a printer caught for downloading stuff on a P2P network. But nevermind, the Government doesn't care about this detail.
In order to identify IP addresses, the HADOPI will rely on the collaboration of ISPs. They will allow the HADOPI to know when a copyrighted contents is being downloaded (which means getting into private feeds of datas) and put a name on an IP address. Prior to the HADOPI law, only the Police or a Tribunal was able to order an ISP to give the name of a person based on one's IP address. With the HADOPI, this won't be needed anymore.
What if your Wi-Fi has been hacked by your neighbour and he downloaded the latest Celine Dion album ? Well that's your problem, you should watch your Wi-Fi better, says the Government.
The fake IP and the hacked Wi-Fi both mean that you can be punished without having downloading any single file. In order to prevent this from happening, the Government has found a magical way : you will have to install a spyware (that you'll have to pay for and which will most likely not be compatible with opensource OS) that will be connected 24/7 to a central server of the HADOPI. The datas collected by the spyware will allow you to prove that you are innocent, be you mistakingly caught for downloading copyrighted contents.
Now about the punishment. The punishment has 3 levels. For the first offense an e-mail warning will be sent to the person identified as the owner of the internet access used for downloading. For the second offense a certified warning letter will arrive in the mail. For the third offense the Internet connection of the offending user will be cut for a duration between 1 month and 1 year. The punished user will continue to pay his internet access, and will be prevented from subscribing from another ISP by the addition of his name on a centralized black-list.
This means that a whole family could be deprived of internet access (which means : e-mail, e-shopping, e-administration, e-learning, e-information, e-whatever-you-want), just because the rebel teenager has been downloading some stuff and has not stopped when the parents told him to do so after having received the 2 warning messages. No more Wikipedia. No more Amazon. No more eBay. No more Google. No more Flickr. For up to 1 year. And don't forget the culprit is maybe not even in your home : it can be your neighbour, or even a Chinese or Russian robot sending your IP address on P2P tracker lists.
Going one step further, some people think that the Government does not really care about the entertainment industry, and is just using this purpose as a Trojan to get the (French) internet under control. After all, once the HADOPI is created and given its tools to identify persons from their IP addresses without the need of an independant judge, what will prevent it from tracking more than just kids downloading music and films?

The people of the moon of Makem have turn against the Imperial rule. They have allied with the new forming 'Rebellion' and are planning a campaign on the Imperial controlled planet of Chorack.
Day one
“We were on our regular scout, nothing seemed very active, but as we were about to give the ‘all clear’ we were attacked. I thought the only way they could’ve gotten through our defenses is by ion weaponry, but that didn’t matter now. I made an immediate request for back up and they arrived very soon in our prototype dropship, modified with two speeders and some troops. We won the fire-fight but we had more battle in store for us.”
Day twenty-four
“We have repelled the Rebel forces and the People of Makem have been taken care of. The planet of Chorack is still under Imperial control. We had maximum casualties but I can say the same for that Rebel scum. Now our drop ships have gained Darth Vader’s approval and are ready to be put into combat. “
This is for part two of the mission in the Imperial Conquest!
Also, I'm really sorry for the bad picture quallity, It was hard getting everything in focus.
I love being able to get a good photograph of people who don't think they can photograph well.. PWNED!

Pues eso, foto de despedida del TER al que probáblemente no volveré a ver nunca más.
Una pena, primero se despreservó la unidad 440.001, ahora se llevan el TER. ¿Cuál será lo siguiente? ¿Qué papel juega la FFE en la preservación de trenes fuera de las provincias de Madrid y Barcelona?
También debería ser un toque de atención a Valladolid, especialmente a las instituciones para que se den cuenta de lo que podría hacerse y no se hace. Deberían empezar por replantearse si es conveniente convertir la rotonda ferroviaria en una biblioteca o si no sería mejor usarla para almacenar trenes preservables como la 440.001 (que aún sigue), o otras unidades similares o incluso algunos coches convencionales que hay en Salamanca casi abandonados y que en un futuro podrían formar parte de trenes turísticos.
Quizás sea difícil tener todos los trenes en marcha, pero si al menos están preservados la esperanza nunca se pierde y al menos siempre se podrá disfrutar de ellos estéticamente, como se está haciendo con la 289.020, que pese a estar vacía sirvió para disfrute de las personas que fueron a la exposición de ferias en 2011. ¿Por qué no hacer lo mismo con la 440.001? ¿Por qué se despreservó?
En fin, sólo desear que disfruten este tren en la sierra Norte de Madrid.
This photo contains my first attempts at an actual large format display of my own work. It all turned out really well... very proud.
This shot is 3 of the 6 photographs on display (that I have taken in the past six months) @: East Pointe Commons Starbucks until May 11th, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
All photos were taken here in Milwaukee, and adequately showcase the variety of photos one could take within an urban setting.
These 3 photos can be found throughout my photostream.
I really dig the center one, once again; maybe because of its size? The one on the left - abstract shot of the Milwaukee Art Museum, the one on the right, a night skyline shot - City of Milwaukee. It's really a lot better of a place than you probably assume. I love it.
