Frame conservation on "The Relief" by The Milkshakeman (1973). Taking the painting down from the wall requires a forklift, two scissor lifts and many hands.
Tactical shooting requires agile and adaptive thinkers able to handle the challenges of full spectrum operations in an era of persistent conflict. To meet this requirement, TAPS delivers a comprehensive, systematic, progressive Train-the-Trainer shooting program focused on fundamental mastery and built for Law Enforcement officers, military personal, and qualified civilians. Designed for leaders and trainers, the TAPS course also applies to the patrol-level officer, basic level Soldiers, and civilian self & home defense minded shooters. The approach to instruction is through coaching and mentorship and both demonstrates and transfers a training method that is safe, effective, combat relevant, and encourages a continuous thought process that demands accountability. Training is conducted on the range and focuses on advanced refinement of the basic fundamentals of marksmanship as applied to the primary and secondary weapons systems. Utilizing a building block learning model, TAPS combines the pressures and dynamics of competitive shooting and tactical application. While course of instruction is on the firing range, the TAPS training approach also translates into training venues outside the range.
Course Outline:
The 2-day course offering provides the following training and instruction:
- Lecture on proper weapons handling and safety
- Refresh the fundamentals and grouping exercises
- Conduct a diagnostic course of fire
- Conduct a discussion on the importance of performing a focal shift during training and avoiding mundane drills that do not encourage a thought process
- Other topics covered and practiced are; grouping exercises with both primary and secondary weapon systems, target discrimination, use of barricades, movement, close quarter battle techniques, immediate action drills, ballistics 101, transitions, magazine changes
- Escalation of training and intensity will vary depending on number of students and their skill level though the core of the course will always remain the same
- This course is marksmanship intensive.

It took me 2 weeks to get this explained by Amazon, and by that time I'd guessed on my own. The "Community Guideline" says you have to have spent $50 in the last year to have the privilige of posting a review. It says that special deal mechandise doesn't count toward the $50. Yeah, it's a new requirement since the last time I posted a review.
Turns out they also DON'T count your purchase toward the $50/yr threshold if you use credit card ***reward points***. It doesn't say that anywhere I could see, not in Help or the FAQ or the "Community Guidelines. But after multiple on-line text chats all provided no explanation for this error message, I got an email, that I can't reply to, that admits the issue is that credit card reward points don't count as purchases. That was over 2 weeks after I first saw the problem. I made an additional purchase to be sure I was over the $50 threshold, but it still wouldn't accept a review.
It took me a while to guess, because transactions with reward points look like this in your transaction history:
Payment Method
MasterCard **** **** **** ****
Rewards Points
Order Summary
Item(s) Subtotal: $15.99
Shipping & Handling: $3.99
Total before tax: $19.98
Estimated tax to be collected: $0.00
Rewards Points: -$19.98
Grand Total: $0.00
I've worked with enough billing and inventory systems that a 0.00 grand total doesn't necessarily mean 0.00 transaction value. Could be $0.00 balance because I bought something and paid for it.
But here's a partial rewards points / partial straight payment charge, and thinking about what this says is how I realized they don't count rewards points purchases:
MasterCard **** **** **** ****
Rewards Points
Order Summary
Item(s) Subtotal: $16.84
Shipping & Handling: $2.98
Total before tax: $19.82
Estimated tax to be collected: $1.84
Rewards Points: -$19.74
Grand Total: $1.92 <========== Only shows because payment is a mix of rewards points and non-rewards points.
For a third party credit card, where they are getting all the value, this is, at least, morally wrong. Unless Citi Bank strong-armed Amazon into giving them a discount when reward points are used to buy from Amazon's site. Might be, but I doubt it.
If a customer has an Amazon-issued credit card, reward points DO come out of their skin. And they don't want to let third party cards have an advantage over their own card, so nobody's reward points are recognized. I can understand that. I can understand why they don't state it publcly, they don't want to admit it. If I was doing that to my customers, I'd be embarased too. But I wouldn't ever do that to a customer.
I've put up a lot of book and music reviews and some product reviews on Amazon. I've even gotten positive feedback on my reviews. But since I've mostly used reward points this year, I can't put up reviews. I haven't paid them enough in the way they want to be paid, so I don't qualify. I don't fit the community guidelines.
I'd like to think my previous reviews may have helped highlight the desirable qualites of what they're selling. But fair and truthful reviews aren't good enough. I have to make purchases in the last 12 months to defray the cost of, that is, to cover, uh, to pay for, well... they don't take down my previous reviews, just prevent new ones. So I have to make new purchases to cover the transaction costs of accepting my new reviews.
That doesn't sound like a community guideline, its sounds like maintaining current customer status. Nobody who might read what I wrote would know or care how much I spent in the last 12 months. It has no bearing on how useful, truthfull, concise or engaging my comment is. Its has nothing to do with "community", which is why it isn't mentioned in the Community guidelines. The person who wrote to me treated as if it was something I already knew, because they already knew it.
Well that'll learn me, eh? Amazon won't accept new reviews if I don't buy anything. My standing as a reviewer absolutely depends on how much I spend at Amazon in the most recent 12 months. For the good of the community. What rubbish!

GB Railfreight Class 66, 66717 "Good Old Boy" attacks the climb from Lostock Gralam towards Plumley West Signal Box with 6E10 09:55 Liverpool Biomass Terminal to Drax Power Station.
The photograph was taken from what was the rail spur to the now-demolished Associated Octel Holford Moss works which were situated by the line here and manufactured the lead additive for petrol. The works closed in 1985 and taken down soon after, yet a lot of the trackwork still remains.
These books are a great read & have fantastic photos, highly recommended! I put the books on the box from my Justin Vintage boots (pair No.4 in my modest collection!)

Very simple and light weight near ortho KAP rig and easy to fly low wind kite. For the rig, jJust tape a CHDK compliant camera to a Gent-X picavet. The Fled kite requires little tuning and will lift a camera in 3mph winds. This configuration of camera, rig, and kite works well for capturing images to process with structure from motion photogrammetry. The fled can fly near vertical, this can be quite useful when working in confined spaces.

This is a landscape from Mars.
On this picture we see the way of NASAs Mars Rover Opportunity from Victoria Crater to Endeavour Crater in the Meridiani Planum.
The skin of Mars surface is covered by sand dunes.
It can be dangerous for the Rovers.
On April 26, 2005 Opportunity dug itself into a sand dune about 30 cm (12 inch) tall.
Sister Rover Spirit seems to be lost, because it stucked in soft soil since one year and cannot move.
Stereo photos are important for the rover driver to assess the tall and depth of the sand dunes.
Only few people are making stereo photos.
Stereo cameras are rarely on earth - while there are even stereo cameras on Mars!
I asked me, can I use this stereo cams on Mars for an anaglyph?
The answer was "yes"!
I found two single shots from Opportunitys navigation cam on the homepage of Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and maked from it this anaglyph.
