*NEWS FLASH*
right..something bugged me this week..some news to be precise. I never read it, i never watch it..i live ignorantly to the worlds woes only because i have strong emotions and i cant bear seeing bad things happen when theres people out there trying to make the world right and they dont get a look in..its all pretty much negative stuff plastered around us..
I went on a web site and i naively clicked on a link..it was a video from a phone of the Iranian girl who got shot and bled to death, my heart immediately sank, my head stuck in a depressive state for the rest of the day..i went out,took pictures, my chest still aching so much from the sadness of watching something so mortifying, undignified and disrespectful that lasted all but a few seconds.
This is what happens to me, i cant shrug these things off, i cant switch it off, so how can i watch/read these awful things when i deeply think about them-its not that simple, i CANT because i know i am helpless.CALLING ALL transformers, superman,Supergirl, batman, he-man, she-ra,..where the hell are you??
oh and to top it off..*Jon turns telly on*...king of pop..noooooo you cant die!
I wanted to see you at the O2 :(:( R.I.P

The kit and its assembly:
Another entry for the “Flying Boat, Seaplane and Amphibian” Group Build at whatifmodelers.com in late 2017, and the result of a spontaneous inspiration from a drawing of a Luft’46/fantasy creation of a Me 262 fuselage with a planning bottom, a parasol(!) wing and a single jet engine exhausting right above the cockpit, and no (visible) stabilizing floats at all. Rather spurious.
Well, nevertheless, the Me 262 jet fighter has a very shark-like profile and shape, and it has already been converted into flying boats or even submarines by modelers, and I decided to create my personal interpretation of the theme. I remembered a lone He 115 float in my stash (maybe 35 years old or even more!), and when I held to a Me 262 fuselage the parts had almost the same length and width. So, creating a flying boat jet fighter seemed like a realistic task.
Things started straightforward with an 1:72 Smer Me 262 fighter, which is actually the vintage Heller two-seater night fighter with a new fuselage and canopy. My kit of choice would have been the Matchbox kit, but the Heller kit is also O.K., due to its simplicity and simple construction.
Creating something amphibian from a Me 262 is not a trivial task, though. With its low wings and underslung engine nacelles there’s a lot to be changed until you get a plausible floatplane. Another challenge is to integrate some form of stabilizer/outrigger floats, what also influences the wings’ position. Placing the engines where they are safe from spray ingestion is also a serious matter – you have to get the high and the intakes as far forward as possible.
Doing some legwork I found some similar builds, and they all did not convince me. And, after all, I wanted to create my own “design”; in order to incorporate some realism I eventually settled on Dornier’s typical WWII designs like the Do 18 and Do 24. These elegant aircraft had a common, elegant trait: low stub wings as stabilizer floats, paired with high wings (in the case of the Do 18 held by a massive central pylon) which carried the engine out of the water’s reach. This appeared like a feasible layout for my conversion, even though it would mean a total re-construction of the kit, or rather assembling it in a way that almost no part was glued into the intended place!
Work started with the cockpit, which had to be moved forward in order to make room for the wings behind the canopy, placed high on a pylon above the fuselage. For this stunt, the cockpit opening and the place in front of it (where the original front fuselage tank would be) were cut out and switched. The cockpit tub was moved forward and trimmed in order to fit into the new place. The nose section was filled with lead, because the stub wings/floats would allow a retractable landing gear to be added, too, making the aircraft a true amphibian!
The He 115 float was cut down in order to fit under the OOB Me 262 fuselage, and a front wheel well was integrated for a tricycle landing gear. Once the fuselage was closed, the planning bottom was added and the flanks sculpted with putty – lots of it.
In the meantime the Me 262 wing received a thorough re-arrangement, too. Not only were the engine nacelles moved to the upper wing surface (cutting the respective wing and intake sections of the nacelles off/out and turning them around 180°), the original connecting ventral wing part with the landing gear wells were turned upside down, too, the landing gear covers closed (with the respective OOB parts) and the inner wing sections modified into a gull wing, raising the engines even further. VERY complex task, and blending/re-shaping everything took a lot of PSR, too.
Under the central wing section I added a pylon left over from a Smer Curtiss SC Seahawk kit, because a massive Do 18-esque construction was out of question for a fast jet aircraft. The gaps were filled with putty, too.
In order to keep the stabilizers free from water spray they were moved upwards on the fin, too. The original attachment points were sanded away and hidden under putty, and the OOB stabilizers placed almost at the top at the fin.
Finding suitable stub wings/floats became a challenge: they have to be relatively thick (yielding buoyancy and also offering room for the retractable landing gear), but also short with not-so-rounded tips. It took a while until I found suitable donor parts in the form of the tips of an 1:32 AH-64 Apache (!) stabilizer! They were simply cut off, and openings for the main landing gear cut into their lower sides.
Once glued to the lower flanks and the stabilizers in place it was time to place the wing. In the meantime the moved cockpit had been blended to the fuselage, and initial tests indicated that the pylon would have to be placed right behind the canopy – actually on top of the end of the clear part. As a consequence the canopy was cut into pieces and its rear section integrated into the fuselage (more PSR).
However, the relatively thin and slender central pylon from the Curtiss SC indicated that some more struts would be necessary in order to ensure stability – very retro, and not really suited for a jet-powered aircraft. And the more I looked at the layout, the more I became convinced that the wings and engines were in a plausible position, but placed too high.
What started next were several sessions in which I shortened the pylon step by step, until I was satisfied with the overall proportions. This went so far that almost everything of the pylon had gone, and the wings almost rested directly on the Me 262’s spine!
However, this new layout offered the benefit of rendering the extra struts obsolete, since I decided to fill the small gap between wing and fuselage into a single, massive fairing. This would also mean more internal space, and consequently the original idea of a jet-powered combat aircraft was modified into a fast multi-purpose amphibian vehicle for special tasks, capable of transporting personnel behind enemy lines with a quick move.
More PSR, though, and after some finishing touches like a scratched landing gear (front leg/wheel from an Italeri Bae Hawk, main struts from a Mistercraft PZL Iskra trainer, wheels from an Academy OV-10 Bronco and with improvised covers), several antennae and mooring lugs made from wire, the aircraft was ready for painting. On the downside, though, almost any surface detail had been lost due to the massive, overall body sculpting – but the application of the light zigzag pattern helped to recreate some “illusionary” details like flaps or panel lines. ;-)

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

VEB Pentacon licensed the production of screw-mount Exas (some late Ib version 4.4 and all Ic version 4.5) to Certo Camera Werk, Dresden-Großzsachwitz, a part of VEB Pentacon. Cameras built by Certo have serial numbers preceded with a letter C.
The later models of Exa 1b have black plastic top- and bottom plates.
Exa 1b body is virtually identical to Exa Ia except rewind knob replaced with a crank and the lens mount is M42 (Pentax/Practica standard), instead of the traditional Exakta bayonet mount. The camera also has internal aperture coupling for M42 automatic lenses.
Exa 1b uses most standard Exakta viewfinders, waist-level and prism.
Other main lenses are Tessar, Makinon and Super Takumar.
Exa 1b is not a real part of the Exakta/Exa system, although its family relationship with Exa cannot be denied.
Exa 1b renamed as Exa 1c without practically any other changes.

I decided to throw together an engine using some ideas I had for different ways of doing things.
* Train PF Motor with large wheels - I wanted to see if this looked alright in terms of wheel spacing, etc. AND if it assisted with traction (rather than relying on powered tenders to push engines along) as it would make some builds a little less difficult and allow just the batteries to be kept in the tender. Results: Looks good enough, and whilst traction was good, it worked better with the AA pack and could do with more weight in the boiler.
*Simple pony truck with floating second axle - I decided to have a go at this for two reasons. I wanted the pony truck to have a more natural movement around the track (rather than the whole thing popping out from under a train around bends) and to try and create more clearance for pistons. Result - Movement is great, but pistons still need to either be higher, or floating (so they move out of the way).

Have been doing simple stretching and some very minor yoga things. Have also been mediating. A combination of things during my healing.
You must not only properly excercise the body. It also needs proper rest to heal and strengthen.
Doctor gave me okay to go all out with my yoga. He understands how advanced l am in it. And knows l know how properly to proceed.
And it's keeping things simple.
Ease the body slowly into different positions. Everything is a step. You can't get to the top of the stairs without stepping or going past each stair. Sure. You can go up three at a time. But that increases the chance of slipping and falling. And when you fall. It's normally back to the bottom.
So l will reach the top again. But l do it simple. One step at a time. Getting my balance before the next.
And the thing is. It's not only the proper and easy way. It gives the most inner peace.
You have no idea how happy l am in this picture.
Later.
And to all who hate my yoga pictures. To bad. Get ready for more. Because this girls back🐣🐤🐥🌹🌹🌹
Title artwork for a new series that begins this Sunday. This series will serve as 2010 vision casting series...that all of church (and our lives) is really centered on the cross and if we simply proclaim a "lifted Christ" that he will draw men unto himself...based on Jn 12:32. Obviously I wanted to keep the design "simple", but also to illuminate the center focus - Christ crucified.
Thoughts? Improvements?
Simple Minds – New Gold Dream 81 82 83 84
El pop de los ochenta tuvo en los escoceses de Simple Minds una de esas interesantes figuras que mostraron las posibilidades de unir sonidos sintetizados con canciones ágiles. Luego de haber pasado por una fase punk y otra experimental Simple Minds se catapultó con su obra en el medio musical europeo, llevándolo a ser una de los mejores exponentes de un sonido hecho para agradar, pero también para agitar.
Simple Minds estuvo muy interesado en unir su consciencia social con su música, en un momento en el cual la ligereza musical era la parte esencial del mercado. Los grupos y artistas que con una canción iban y venían eran reyes de las listas, pero hubo quienes lograron salir de todo eso y ofrecer bellezas. Así es como este trabajo de 1982 nos da a conocer un proyecto que se consolidó como estandarte sonoro de la década. Pudo llenar estadios y salir airoso. Ese futurismo sonoro está reflejado en Promised you a Miracle, Someone Somewhere in Summertime, Glittering Prize, Hunter and the Hunted, donde las lecciones de Kraftwerk y Rosy Music reconfortan a los neófitos y agradan a los ya conocedores.
Esto sucedió hace ya más de 25 años, mostrando cómo las máquinas pueden ayudar a crear obras de gran perduración.
