Experiment in drawing moving vector dots on a video vectorscope using an FPGA to synthesize a chrominance signal (using only the luminance channel) that is slightly off the colorburst frequency, causing the rotation. The synthetic D1 video signal is sent to an encoder chip to create the analog video signal.
LA-R15 Raven, AR15 Rifle Chambered in .22LR with LaRue LT-660 and LT-755 mounts. Aimpoint Micro T-1 and 3x Mag.
Some parts were extremely small, I guess 402 components. Soldering was challenging and my tweezers were almost too large and my left hand was shaking too much.
Please note that a new hardware version of this device has been released, therefore these images will most likely not apply to it.
LEGO, as only LEGO could, placed a lot of detail on the ship, both inside and out. The armor plating had lot of interesting details, as you see here. I'm really not sure what they are for from the perspective of a star ship, but it's pretty cool.
Luis and I just make up names for each of them, calling them by what they look like the most.
This part of the armor plating is near the drive units.

new toys!! the mathematics & lines from these totally remind me of 70's supergraphics.. and 80s macrame!!
It was a tall order, but high school students rose to the challenge: they integrated physics, engineering, and scientific curiosity and created functional data-gathering drifters. They also became part of a scientific effort to improve predictions of how oil moves through coastal waters and onto shores.

d97480a. Recommended 50kmh speed limit on the Island Point road, heading out. This seems highly problematic to me.
Firstly, the speed limit is 100 on a road in a non-built-up area like this where there is no sign to say otherwise. Secondly, it is easy to do 80kmh or more, safely, on this road, and you can legally do it as the yellow speed signs are only recommendations. Thirdly, is this sign supposed to only apply when pedestrians are present? It could be interpreted as applying for the whole road back to the main road, whether or not pedestrians are present.
It is too vague and open to very different interpretations. There is too much scope for strong conflict between drivers who observe it at face value and those who (can legally) just completely ignore it and drive at almost twice the speed.
It is supposed to improve road safety, but it could potentially work strongly against it.
He's got it built into his face!

I figured someone would wanna see a scoped version, and I still had the window open, so I thought I'd go ahead and add one, it gave me a chance to play around with a new optic idea anyway :P

Air scopes with the grills back in place. The grills were not rechromed. The chrome is in good original condition. They look even better when you see them with your own eyes.

Our cart full of scopes and other gadgets. It's on wheels for easy moving, but judging by the collected debris beneath is usually quite stationary.

SCOPE an NGO based in Tiruchi, established in 1986 concentrates on rural development, empowering the marginalized women in rural areas found out soon that open defecation due to inability to construct toilets was one of the basic problems that prevented their economic development. Increased income was always eroded by increased medical bill, and fall in income due to increased absenteeism.

The Government announced its backing of Phase 1 of the development of a revised East-West Rail Link in August 2000.
Phase 1 – Bicester to Oxford (Completed December 2016)
Chiltern Railways’ Evergreen 3 project involved the introduction of new direct services between London (Marylebone) and Oxford via Bicester. The scope was enlarged to include the infrastructure required for East West Rail (Phase 1) between Oxford and Bicester. This involved the doubling of the railway track between Oxford and Bicester, and the construction of a new chord (a short section of track) to connect Bicester to the Chiltern mainline. East West Rail Phase 1 also involved the upgrading of track and signalling, and the construction of two new stations at Oxford Parkway and Bicester Village.
Services between Oxford Parkway and Bicester Village began on October 26, 2015. And on December 12, 2016, services between Oxford and London Marylebone via Bicester commenced.
Phase 2 – Bedford to Bicester, Milton Keynes to Princes Risborough is due to open in early 2020s
Phase 2 of the Western Section involves the upgrade and reconstruction of existing and mothballed section of the lines linking Bedford and Bicester, and Milton Keynes and Aylesbury. The Public Enquiry relating to Phase 2 will begin in 2019,
Work taking place is as follows:
Bicester to Claydon Junction: Track will be doubled and foot and highway crossings diverted, replaced with structures or closed.
Claydon Junction to Bletchley: This is the mothballed section of track and will be double tracked. At Bletchley Station there will be two high level platforms and a connecting footbridge and a new station will be built at Winslow.
Bletchley to Bedford: The current train service will continue to run and the track will remain as existing. There will be some alterations to some foot and highway crossings; diverted, replaced with structures or closed. Rigmont and Woburn Sands stations will receive platform extensions.
Claydon Junction to Aylesbury: Track will be doubled and foot and highway crossings diverted, replaced with structures or closed. There will be two platforms and a connecting footbridge at Aylesbury Vale Parkway Station.
Aylesbury to Princes Risborough: The Princes Risborough to Aylesbury line (PRA) is proposed to remain single track. There will be a platform extension at Princes Risborough Station.
The Players:
East West Rail Consortium: The Consortium contains councils along the East West Rail route. It was formed in 1995, and since then has made the strategic and business case for East West Rail. The Consortium is also a ‘minority shareholder’ in the scheme, having contributed £45m towards the Western Section. It works closely with Network Rail, the Department for Transport and other partners to ensure the line is built as soon as possible.
The East West Rail Alliance: The Alliance is made up of Network Rail, Atkins, Laing O’Rourke and Volker Rail. It is responsible for designing and building the Western Section.
The East West Railway Company: This was formed as a special purpose vehicle by the Secretary of State for Transport to optimise the delivery of the East West Rail. It initially reviewed the East West Rail proposals and led a value engineering and programme delivery review to identify how the value and benefits from this project can be realised as quickly as is possible. The company’s terms of reference are:
•work with the Department for Transport on its aim to open the entire line (including the Central Section from Bedford to Cambridge) by the mid 2020s
•explore innovative funding and financing options
•drive significant cost and time benefits in the construction, maintenance and operation of East West Rail
•generate greater contestability in rail construction and maintenance
•integrate infrastructure and train services to provide a better experience for passengers
•work with local communities to make sure the new railway meets the needs of those who live and work in the area
