A quick jaunt through Petaling Street, home of counterfeit/replica designer bags, shoes, make-up, clothes, and lots of bootleg DVDs. I felt very claustrophobic in there and not really in bargaining/haggling mood, so I was happy to roll in and roll right back out. Sensory overload.

At the top you can see where the upper portion of the handtruck will be clamped between two pieces of wood - a 3/8 threaded rod is cut to length to clamp these together.
You can also see the use of heavy-duty angle brackets to mount the top plate to the side members.
The weather is so bad, all that can be looked at is a nearby telephone pole.
X-Y adjustment on guide scope works great.

It's a little back focussed, but I like this shot for some reason.

I processed this image four times in four different ways before settling on this one. This was taken from the same crazy kids dentistry as "anyone bring a level ?". So you can imagine that it had crazy colors, which made the decision to monochrome it so difficult.
After countless times of staring at each version and consulting the two best critics I have (my wife and genzapata) I landed on this one.
I have to say that after trying Adobe's Lightroom Beta for about a week I am not too thrilled on it. Do not get me wrong it is a nice piece of software, but it is not exceptional. I think I might have set my hopes a little too high especially after hearing that they bought out Pixmantec's RawShooter. For starters it is a CPU hog. It makes my P4 3.2 HT scream like it is being beaten to death. Secondly I was disapointed that it did not fulfill the promise of being the only step before Photoshop. I was hoping it would do management and organizing as well, but it did not. I will continue to try future betas, if they release them, to see if there are improvements. I do not see how they could have implimented RawShooters technology so fast so maybe we will see those features in a future beta.
On the other hand I have been using the 30 day trial of Phase One's Capture One Pro and I must say it is over the top ridiculous ... that is a good thing. The only bad thing is that once they sold me and I was ready to buy I realized it was $500.00 USD and I simply cannot spring for that right now. But wait ... there is yet good news! I downloaded the LE version and to my delight it has everything I was using and need from the Pro version and it is only $100.00 USD. Now that I can spring for! I will continue the 15 day trial on the Capture One LE version and then most likely be making my purchase. If you have not tried Capture One for processing RAW I suggest grabbing a trial and checking it out.
**UPDATE**
I just found out that Amazon is a retailer for Phase One and has Capture One LE for $79.99! If anyone finds a better deal before my 15 day trial expires let me know.
The beaks of hummingbirds are covered with a skin, Fred told us. At first this skin is wrinkled to accommodate a larger beak as the bird matures. If you see the wrinkles in the beak you can be pretty sure it is a first year bird, and this one was. He also looked in her open mouth and it was yellow, which young birds have as a way of signaling their mother for more food (the male only mates, and then the mother builds the nest, lays the eggs, keeps them warm, then feeds the babies (they eat mostly protien (and even adults have 75% or so of their diet as protien, small insects and spiders) until they can feed themselves. Then she shoos them off to find their own territories.
After the first year, you can't look at the bird and tell how old it is, they all look pretty much the same. The average age is 3 to 4 years old, but there are records of 7 year old birds and even at least one at 9 years, amazing. If a bird has been banded, the information about when and where is in a database, so if a bird is recaptured, it is also possible to get an idea of their age and travels.

photo by: Kevin In September with my little brother Kevin as the Inspector and myself and G as the main crew we renovated the west wing of the basement (a large room with full window and double door to back yard and a 10x20 area divided into a new kitchen and bathroom) which I have named The Base Station. After throwing out half the stuff stored in the room and moving the rest into the laundry room and the 2 other bedrooms and hallway in the basement we proceeded to gut down to the cement and cinder block, replumb, rewire, restud, drywall. mud, paint and finish and furnish (thanks to craigslist) what is now a pretty sweet property upgrade/rent-able apartment in my parents house and a base station for me while I figure out about student debt, finishing school, transferring programs etc. What was originally going to be a one month process of cleaning the room quickly became a 3 months project as we started to peel back the layers of the space that hasn't been used in many years finding mold and drainage problems... Kevin joked the term for this in engineering world is scope creep, when the scope of the project creeps larger and larger. For his birthday in mid-Nov I got him some coveralls and made this screenprint for our construction crew. Base Station Renovation Fall 2012

Friends of mine are looking through our Lunt 80mm (a big hit) and the Meade ETX-125 (w/Thousand Oaks Solar 2 Filter) side-by-side mounted on a Celestron CG-5 mount which is tracking the transit. It's getting late… 3rd contact is approaching.
Just some more mods. Switched the attachments on the Hac and Arc. This wasn't as easy as I thought it would be, but I like the results. Also, a preview of my (possible) entry for the Toywiz spokesfigure contest.

Apparently this technique works best with 12 threads + tiles / plates that have a groove at the bottom. Can create some very nice round shapes.
