a poor children helping request to cars on the air port road foot path in Quetta city. by Din Muhammad Watanpaal
3FM Serious Request, Gerard Ekdom, Giel Beelen, Ekstra Weekend en het programma GIEL! waren genomineerd voor het prijzenfestival van de AVRO. Claudia vertelt nog even een mop om de stemming erin te houden...
3FM Serious Request draait dit jaar om diarree. Jaarlijks overlijden er wereldwijd 800.000 kinderen aan de gevolgen van diarree en om dat aantal terug te dringen, zetten 3FM en het Rode Kruis zich van 18 t/m 24 december vanuit Leeuwarden in om zoveel mogelijk geld in te zamelen voor deze stille ramp.

Met 3FM Serious Request 2015 zetten we ons dit jaar in voor kinderen en jongeren in oorlogs- en conflictgebieden: deze generatie leeft onder de meest extreme omstandigheden en heeft daardoor weinig kans op scholing en ontwikkeling. Zij zijn de stille slachtoffers van de oorlog. Voor meer info, check: www.3fm.nl/seriousrequest

This is one of 12 scenes displayed at various places including the Canberra Civic in 2006.
Scene designed and created by StudioM at our workshop in 2005 - copyright held. Scene sold AFTER this photo was taken to a Promotions company which put in some simplistic up and down motion by means of an overhead rotating shaft and cam system. This is a well used method to add some simple up and down motion to such scenes. Many people who saw the scene in our workshop before its sale enjoyed it in its 'frozen' animation state as shown here. It has been exhibited many times by this promotions company in many places and media. However, any claims by this promotions company or its puppeteer director to being 'the creator', 'the mastermind' or 'creative force' behind it are COMPLETELY FALSE, deliberately misleading and an infringement of StudioM's copyright. The brown book on the shelf gives the credits to the true designers and creators and by copyright law should still be there, untouched and visible. The promotions company saw it for the first time as it is shown here on delivery, and had no input into the design or creation of this scene other than supplying the bare aluminium frame and plywood floor. See note over photo and look at large size.

Cattleya /ˈkætliːə/ is a genus of 113 species of orchids from Costa Rica and the Lesser Antilles south to Argentina. The genus was named in 1824 by John Lindley after William Cattley[3] who received and was the first to bloom a specimen of Cattleya labiata. William Swainson had discovered the new plant in Pernambuco, Brazil, in 1817 and shipped to the Glasgow Botanic Gardens for identification. Swainson requested that a few plants be later sent to Cattley, who was able to bloom one a full year before the plants in Glasgow. It would be another 70 years before they would be rediscovered in the wild because of a mixup in the assumed location of the plants. The genus is abbreviated C in trade journals.
They are widely known for their large, showy flowers, and were used extensively in hybridization for the cut-flower trade until the 1980s when pot plants became more popular. The flowers of the hybrids can vary in size from 5 cm to 15 cm or more. They occur in all colors except true blue and black.
The typical flower has three rather narrow sepals and three usually broader petals: two petals are similar to each other, and the third is the quite different conspicuous lip, featuring various markings and specks and an often frilly margin. At the base, the margins are folded into a tube. Each flower stalk originates from a pseudobulb. The number of flowers varies; it can be just one or two, or sometimes up to ten.
HYBRIDS
Cattleyas have been hybridized both within the genus and with related genera for more than a century, but the last several decades have seen a remarkable increase in both the quantity and quality of the hybrids within the Cattleya alliance. Among the most popular are the Brassolaeliocattleya (Blc.) and Sophrolaeliocattleya (Slc.) hybrids. The vast majority of the Blc. hybrids have recently been moved into the new nothogenus Rhyncholaeliocattleya (Rlc.); the Slc. mostly into Cattleya, with a few in Laleliocattleya (Lc.)
Laelia (L.): Breeding with this genus refines the lip of the orchid, producing a more elongated closed "cone" that gracefully opens into the full lip of the blossom. Some species of Laelia also contribute an intense violet shade. Laelia + Cattleya = Laeliocattleya, the basis for many more complex and highly popular hybrids. Most species of Laelia (the "Brasilian Laelias") were merged into Cattleya in the first decade of the third millennium, after a brief sojourn in Sophronitis.
Brassavola (B.): Most crosses with Brassavola are actually done with the Ryncholaelia digbyana, which was moved out of the Brassavola genus but was still considered such in naming the hybrid for many years. This cross is made in order to effect the fabulous "fringed", "feathered" or "ruffled" lip of the bloom; it also expands the lip of the blossom and the most imposing cattleya hybrids almost always have this species in their ancestry. These are usually the largest of the major cattleya hybrids. Brassavola + Cattleya = Brassocattleya, Brassavola + Laelia + Cattleya = Brassolaeliocattleya. Most, but not all, of these hybrids are now placed in Rhyncholaeliocattleya.
Sophronitis (Soph.): A tiny, flame-colored orchid that introduces the most intense red color to its descendants. Many crimson and scarlet cattleya hybrids betray sophronitis in their ancestry. Sophronitis is also used to miniaturize cattleya hybrids. Sophronitis + Laelia + Cattleya = Sophrolaeliocattleya. Sophronitis was recently merged into Cattleya, after being expanded to include most of the Laelia species.
Potinara (Pot.): The combination of all three of the above with a Cattleya. Potinaras are not as popular as Blc's or Slc's, but there are some incredible examples coming in all ranges of colors from light green to magenta. Although it is not a rule, they are generally smaller than Blc's but larger than Slc's. The recent merging of Sophronitis into Cattleya extinguished the nothogenus Potinara; most former Potinaras are now in the nothogenus Rhyncholaeliocattleya (Rlc.)
Yamadara (Yam.): The cross of the Blc combination with an [Epidendrum]. The addition of Epidendrum appears to increase flower yield, and some Yamadaras are intensely colored. With the recent discovery that the first Yamadara was registered as Adamara, the nothogeneric epithet Yamadara has been extinguished and replaced with Adamara.
Hawkinsara (Hknsa.): The Slc combination crossed with Broughtonia. Smaller, often magenta/reddish flowers. Many of these are now classified in the nothogenus Cattleytonia (Ctna.)
Cattleyas can be crossed with a large number of other allied genera, including Cattleyopsis, Caularthron, Schomburgkia, Tetramicra, etc. Hybridization can go all the way up to eight parent genera, such as Brassavola x Broughtonia x Cattleya x Cattleyopsis x Caularthron x Epidendrum x Laelia x Sophronitis in Gladysyeeara.
IN CULTURE
The phrase "to do a cattleya" is used as a playful euphemism for amorous fondling by the characters Odette and Swann in Marcel Proust's novel Remembrance of Things Past.
The main character in the 2011 action film Colombiana played by Zoe Saldana is named Cataleya. The film prominently features the Colombian flower as Cataleya's calling card and it's a major part of some versions of the movie poster.
One of the main characters in Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, who has amnesia, names herself after a cattleya isabella that she is given. She calls herself Catleia in the European version, but in the US version her friend Will convinces her to name herself after the "isabella" part instead.
SEE ALSO
Some cattleya hybrids have been named and dedicated to the First Lady of the United States, celebrities, and individuals that want to honor another such as the radiant faith orchid.
WIKIPEDIA
There were many great cosplays to be seen, but this is the only I got a chance to photograph - the man was there to promote Halolz with this fantastic recreation of the "Towering Pillar of Hats" from phenomenal multiplayer shooter Team Fortress 2.
He obliged my request for a photo with this fantastic pose.

Request made to Carla Medeiros, on her Mercado Livre.
She has some amazing stuff around there and was open for personal request. I love to draw requests for talented artisans!
These clothes were made for one of my dals, Finn.
She took a bit too long to deliver - almost 4 months, but the quality of her work is stunning. I plan on posting some photos when my dolls are done - full wigged and such.

An ENB I'm doing under request just because I can.
Still heavily work in progress, the objective is to make the game look like the Nevada Desert does in real life, blue, white, washed out yellow...
If anyone has been there, you'll know what I'm talking about, otherwise just google some images and you get the idea.

w/Custom bloom config using color grading, contrast and gamma adjustments (in-game brightess set to minimum)
w/Custom DoF preset with strong Bokeh effect, low impact on performance and a wide offset to make the dof only appear when close up to objects
w/Custom lenz file and settings, simulating a dust and moist dirt on a camera lens
Slight use of blueshift to achieve the horizont blue effect.
Custom palette edited from one of Dynamo's color palettes (grey light).

I was recently asked to recommend my favourite skirt manufacturers. I generally name them in all my posts, but I would certainly put Vivien of Holloway and (vintage) Lindy Bop at the top of my list. Also worth keeping an eye out for are items from Collectif, Rock n Romance, British Retro, Voodoo Vixen, Devil & Desire, The Seamstress of Bloomsbury, House of Foxy, ModCloth, Hearts & Roses, Hell Bunny, Dolly and Dotty, Pretty Dress Company, Ted Baker, Banned Retro and Pinup Couture. The majority of these are around 26/27” long, so perhaps a little short for this particular correspondent. I also monitor Vinted and eBay for other items of retro/boho interest. I hope all of that helps!

On request I also made building instructions of my Miffy.
She stands about 31 cm tall (just over 12 inch).
You need 685 parts. No rare pieces, but mostly standard bricks.
The building instructions is in pdf-format and costs 20 EURO.
That does not include parts. Those you have to provide yourself.
But, included is a detailed parts list that has all necessary information.
As a taster of the building instructions a few pages.
And a quick look at the parts needed.
Information about this and my other building instructions can be found at:
