I take photos of my Kenwood oscilloscope with my cameras, with different lenses. This way, it's the same subject, yet seen with a different rendering. I always adjust all my photos to bring out the best of what was captured. Nothing elaborate, done in under 5 minutes - just basic white balance, contrast, saturation, and fine tuning color / luminance noise reduction - all in DPP4. Here, we are looking at the 5D classic with the Sigma ART 35mm lens, wide open at F1.4.
Pink cast for a week, after 3 weeks of open hole still draining... Dr is trying a cast to prevent movement so maybe the hole will close....
It's Easy!
Zen Cars
Electrical cars have been around for years by the way. They were even on exhibit at the Place Boneventure in Montreal Canada over three decades ago and shown as relatively slow cars.
They were never popular probably because they required so much electrical power to operate, there was a lot of weight to pull and because of the marriage between the auto industry and oil based fossil fuels.
Today with the unpopularity of gas emissions on the streets, pollution and acid rain this type of car would be more popular today. Modern vehicles are also lighter in weight; and today they are still slower than the speed limit allows but this would be perfect for city travel since so much of the urban traffic is supposed to be slow with traffic anyhow. The Zen Car may even reduce road racing fatalities.
The current Zen manufacturer will eventually be able to have these on Canadian Provincial roads once he gets the go ahead from the provincial governments but it has been a long haul so far. One of the main reasons is the car's slow speed but maybe somebody can make a case at least for their use in the city core where there are many pedestrian crosswalks and make an exception for the highways.
In the meantime the Zen Cars are running well outside of Canada in other Countries.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District hosted a series of public scoping meetings to gather feedback from citizens, stakeholders, state and local governments and agencies on the proposed Glades Reservoir project. The meetings were held March 20, 21 and 22, 2012 in Gainesville, Ga., Auburn, Ala., and Eastpoint, Fla.
The Corps of Engineers is evaluating a permit application submitted by Hall County, Ga., for the construction and operation of an 850-acre flow augmentation reservoir and associated pipelines and facilities. The reservoir is proposed to be located on Flat Creek, a tributary to the Chattahoochee River upstream of Lake Sidney Lanier.
The Corps of Engineers is working with contractor AECOM to prepare and Environmental Impact Statement on the proposed project in order to make an informed permit decision. The scoping meetings were a critical first step to identify key issues and concerns to help the Corps narrow the scope of the EIS. The EIS will analyze social, economic and environmental impacts of the proposed project, including downstream effects, water quality and quantity, impacts to wetlands, endangered species, cultural resources, alternatives, and more. The public will have an opportunity to comment on the draft EIS and final EIS documents as part of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process.

Hoist a Bud to Richie Budd
There’s more to this Fort Worth artist than frat-holes getting wasted inside a glass case.

Fort Worth artist Richie Budd is accustomed to all kinds of unusual reactions to his sculptural installations and so-called “performative sculptures.” But his favorite response so far may be from a New York blogger who took to the web to denounce a recent collaboration between Budd and a friend, former Denton artist Will Robison, called “Come On Guy.” Displayed last month at the SCOPE New York art fair in New York City, the installation consisted of four very real New Jersey frat guys hooting, hollering, and drinking a lot of “Natty Light” –– Natural Light was actually a corporate sponsor –– inside a glass case.
“Art is horseshit,” the offended blogger fumed. “I can put four idiots in a glass box and call it art. I actually wouldn’t mind being in a glass box to rage at an art festival. How can anyone that is involved in art think any of it is legitimate?” Kind of a sweeping denunciation, to be sure, but one that Budd nonetheless appreciates.
“I loved that,” said the artist, 35, with a chuckle. “It’s better than the usual backslapping. At least criticism gives you something to work with.”
An alumnus of Denton’s Good/Bad Art Collective and a graduate of both the University of North Texas and University of Texas-San Antonio, Budd has received quite a bit of backslapping praise from Texas and New York critics for his oddball performance sculptures, which often deal with the relationship between technology and human sensory perception. He’s done other stunt-driven pieces a la “Come On Guy,” including an exhibit of his wisdom teeth perched horizontally on thin pedestals in a work called “All I Have to Give” –– it’s currently on display at his solo show at San Antonio’s Unit B Gallery. His “Diner Coupon” at a 2009 show in Dallas was a mounted series of 20 I.O.U.s, each printed with a generic photo of Budd’s earnest face. The presumption is that these rather dry, clerical vouchers can be cashed in, at some point, for something a little artier from the artist.
“I hope my art has a sense of humor,” Budd said. But to concentrate solely on the cheeky stuff is to miss some of his more sophisticated work, which combines intellectual and emotional elements in surprisingly vivid ways. Budd has done a striking series of sculptures using home appliances, medical devices, and white plastic resin that are oddly poignant. One, “Whiteout,” features a walker in a pile with calculators, tubes, and other flotsam partially covered with drippy plastic resin –– the resin mounds resemble some kinds of creatures trying to emerge from larval states. An interactive installation at a 2009 San Antonio show was called “Exposing Liminal Homeostasis” and consisted of a vertical industrial assemblage of mirrors, spotlights, speakers, a smoke machine, aromatherapy devices, a margarita maker, and recordings of Budd’s voice repeating Buddhist sutras and self-help affirmations. Viewers were bombarded by all kinds of sensory messages being emitted by this spindly, segmented, robotic monstrosity that appeared almost desperately eager to please.
“I rode in the cockpit on opening night,” said Budd, referring to an attached seat on the sculpture from which he could operate various controls. “I wanted it to be a Wizard of Oz, man-behind-the-curtain kind of effect.”
Budd is taking a hiatus from art-making and doing intensive reading in areas that interest him. He’s fascinated right now by method and process, so he’s reading everything from cookbooks to the Greek-Armenian mystic George Gurdjieff’s massive 1950 tome Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson, which attempts through a convoluted allegory to help the reader separate reality from illusion. Given the apparently random ideas and objects that go into Budd’s “performative sculptures,” it’s difficult to pin down obvious influences in his work. Budd acknowledges that there are plenty of artists he admires, but he’s not much into idolizing other creative types. In this sense, the collaborative nature of Denton’s Good/Bad Art Collective has left a permanent stamp on him.
“My biggest influences are my friends, the artists who work with me,” he said. “Art is a symbiotic process. You get ideas from working with other people.”

The Norfolk Scope (1968-71, Pier Luigi Nervi with Williams and Tazewell) is a multipurpose arena at 201 E. Brambleton Avenue, in Norfolk, Virginia. It's located on a superblock that was cleared during the postwar urban renewal period, in a vast plaza devoid of anything of interest except for oversized concrete streetlamps. Underneath is a 600+ car parking garage. It basically resembles a spaceship marooned in L'Enfant Plaza in Washington, DC. James Howard Kunstler, author of The Geography of Nowhere, described it as a vision of "yesterday's tomorrow."

Argonne National Laboratory outside Chicago is the first science and engineering research national laboratory in the United States, receiving this designation on July 1, 1946.[1] It is the largest national laboratory by size and scope in the Midwest. A multipurpose laboratory led since 2009 by director Eric Isaacs, Argonne maintains a broad portfolio in basic science research, energy storage and renewable energy, environmental sustainability, and national security. It is managed for the United States Department of Energy by UChicago Argonne, LLC, which is composed of the University of Chicago and Jacobs Engineering Group Inc.[3] Argonne is a part of the expanding Illinois Technology and Research Corridor.
The laboratory is located on 1,700 acres (6.9 km2) in DuPage County, 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Chicago, Illinois, on Interstate 55, completely encircled by Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve. When it was first established it was known as the University of Chicago's Metallurgical Laboratory (Met Lab), and it was previously located within Red Gate Woods. Early in its history, the laboratory was part of the Manhattan Project, which built the first atomic bomb.
Argonne National Laboratory had a smaller facility called Argonne National Laboratory-West (or simply Argonne-West) in Idaho next to the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory. In 2005, the two Idaho-based laboratories merged to become the Idaho National Laboratory.
