The International Commission on Radiological Protection recommends that all radiation exposure be kept as low as achievable, and for the public, on top of background radiation and any medical procedures, should not exceed 1 mSv per year.

 

For nuclear industry workers, they recommend a maximum permissible annual dose of 20 mSv averaged over five years, with no more than 50 mSv in any one year.

 

However, on April 19th, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) notified the Board of Education and related institutions in Fukushima Prefecture to raise annual radiation exposure limit from 1mSv to 20 mSv. This is way to high for the children.

 

20 mSv per year is comparable to the legally recognized dose for inducing leukemia in nuclear power plant workers. It is also comparable to the maximum dose allowed for nuclear power plant workers in Germany.

 

If the government allows 20 mSv per year for the children, we will see many children suffer from thyroid cancer in five years like what happened on the children in Chernobyl.

 

Please click the link below and sign the petition for the children in Japan by Sat. April 30, 2011 at 23:00 in Japanese time (UTC/GMT +9 hours)

This petition is only for protecting the children from unacceptable level of 20 mSv

A Photo from Day 6 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record but unfortunately I didn't get any journeys on this day.

 

The Severn Valley Railway (SVR) runs trains along a 16 mile Heritage line from Kidderminster station to Bridgenorth station .Highly is one of the stations along the line and there is The Engine House Museum there.

 

The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there were 4 steam Locomotive running on various Steam Excursions where due to Covid19, Compartments were being sold to families and there were some tables for groups of 2 or 4 people but nothing really suitable for the solo traveler.

 

Here, in The Engine House museum very near Highley Station I took this photo of 46443, an Ivatt designed and Crewe Works built for the LMS, Class 2MT - 2-6-0 loco.

Vertical voids carved into sandstone, narrow as if air itself has to queue. Stripped of detail, the wall is a spreadsheet made of stone: rows, columns, nothing human left in it. Photographing it straight-on pushes the point; it is architecture that refuses to listen.

According to both batterymillx’s in-progress Target Store List and this CNN article, the Poplar/240 Target opened in March 2009, which makes it the newest Target store of any of the Memphis-area locations. (Olive Branch is the next newest, having opened in July 2008.) My photos of the store come from a visit on January 4, 2018. This stour was unplanned, and thus isn’t too terribly substantive; if I’m remembering things correctly, we were simply killing some time here, after arriving at the shopping center so I could take some pics of the vacant Staples store nearby. But sometimes the best stours are unplanned, so I hope you’ll enjoy this one!

This week-end involved 2 Heritage Railways with the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

Here, Eventually I got a train powered by 564 from Weybourne to Holt Station and then back to Weybourne where I took this Picture.

 

There were 6 Locomotives in Steam for the Gala Event Sunday.

 

Locomotive 564 is a Worsdell designed and Stratford works built for the GER as Class Y14 - 0-6-0 which was later for the LNER numbered 7564 as a Class J15.

And its from here, about a month on from their introduction, that I started to get up to speed with the E400MMCs back in the pre-Pro 2019 upload days. 11198 was, annoyingly, really evasive when I first built up my bus spotting spreadsheet over the spring lockdown of 2020, but it turns out that I didn't have that much trouble through just hanging around in Queen's Gardens in July 2019! Looking back in retrospect, no wonder this is a favourite spot of mine. Right, that's the double-decks done, onto the single-decks!

 

The final upload from this part of the new bus assuage of 2019, Stagecoach in Hull's 11198, a 2019 ADL Enviro400 MMC, passes by Queen's Gardens on a 12 to Bransholme Centre.

also known as Sweet box or Christmas box.

 

The start of a corbicula pollen load is visible and is more white than cream.

 

At Rowallane Gardens today, this is growing next to the entrance of the main house (tearoom) - temperature was 9C and dull. The bees were out and about and working this plant hard. The beautiful scent today from this plant was amazing - and reaching maybe 20 metres from the plant!

 

I get the impression that this would be an extremely useful honey bee plant to put in a garden. It is now on my list of plants I want to add to my garden in the future.

A horrible wet day on the East Lancs Railway (ELR) where I went on a trip from Heywood to Rawtenstall and back.

Normally I would get out to see and photograph the run round at the far end of the line but it was so wet I just stayed in the carriage.

 

Here, at Heywood Station, 60009 "Union of South Africa" or Number 9, as it is often known as, is ready for the next journey to Rawtenstall.

 

60009 is a Nigel Gresley designed and Doncaster Works built for the LNER A4 Pacific Streak Locomotive 4-6-2 for work on the East Coast Main Line (ECML).

In a previous EB thread, I proposed a collaborative Nostalgia Train Layout for this Summer's Brickworld Chicago: www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/146028-b...

There is a new EB thread is to determine participation so this is your chance to sign up: www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/forum/122-lego... We hope that this collaboration will attract many participants by recreating the nostalgic look and feel of the older train layouts featured in Lego catalogs and the train idea book. Unfortunately Brickworld won't permit us enough floorspace to do the large "L E G O" layout I first proposed. Therefor we are moving forward with the alternative shown here: a moderately sized "50" nostalgia layout to celebrate 50 Years of Lego Trains! Here is a description:

 

- The overall size is 16'x13'

 

- Only official Lego sets will be featured: track, trains, stations and other sets. We have limited space so priority will be given to train specific sets first, then to general town sets as needed. Upgrades and part substitutions are fine as long as the trains still look original (for example replacing 12v traction tires, re-gearing an Emerald Night, etc).

 

- This is a floor layout. The green and tan areas are created with colored roll paper taped to the floor. Tracks will be laid down over the colored paper.

 

- Scenery will consist of loose trees, vehicles and figures placed on the paper between the sets (just like in the catalog pictures :-) Open areas will remain so people can step around for access.

 

- Security will be addressed by having special stanchions up all show days (not just the weekend public days). These stanchions will feature a additional lower horizontal pipe to prevent young ones from entering the layout area. There should be about 30" between the stanchions and the outermost tracks.

We Are Made One with What We Touch and See

 

We are resolved into the supreme air,

We are made one with what we touch and see,

With our heart's blood each crimson sun is fair,

With our young lives each spring impassioned tree

Flames into green, the wildest beasts that range

The moor our kinsmen are, all life is one, and all is change.

Closer again. Tonight's attempts initially started off as a test for my calculations and recordings spreadsheet that I've spent the last few days trying to write. I learned some excel to do it. Seeing as it seems to give me close estimates of timings, I had a good try to get a certain shape. Not there yet, but a step closer at least.. I just need to get a grip on the controller now.

WE CAN'T BELIEVE WE'RE DONE!! This has been going on for MONTHS AND MONTHS. It's ABOUT TIME! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

 

SERIOUSLY -- This is the happiest we'd been in a LOOOONG time.

 

Notice how my sock has become a slipper -- close-up in a separate pic.

 

Actually, we still had some final touch-up sanding to do... But nothing that required wood stain, polyurethane, ventilation, masks, gloves, dropclothes, painter's tape, and all the hassle. Just some casual final touches with the least rough (400-grit) sandpaper to ensure that the finaly (usually 4th) polyurethane coat was smooth.

   

BACKSTORY: Anyone who reads our contract (link below) can see that it specified to move the closet and built-in shelves. But Virginia Design Builders's workers -- the workers hired by Daniel M. Lopez -- were unable to properly move the closet without destroying it. And they "accidentally" threw away our shelves. They also broke the trim at the edge of the closet.

 

And then guess what? The asshole refused to stain ANY of it, despite the fact that the only reason the color now didn't match was due to their inability to properly execute a contract. (It was a 3 month contract and was not finished for over 3 years.) This left us having to stain WAY more wood than we otherwise would have. It was quite literally a difference of several months' work, as we both had jobs (at the time), and spare time at home has been in deficit for awhile.

   

STAINING IS A PAIN: Just for reference, proper wood staining is a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR pain in the ass. The wood filling, the sanding, the pre-conditioning, staining, the wiping, the dropcloths, the multiple coats of everything, the (4) polyurethane coats [which often required holding a lamp in one hand, to reflect light on it to ensure evenness], and the final sanding. And don't get me started on the timing: Stain 20 minutes after pre-conditioning, but only for 2 hours; stain in 20 minute cycles consisting of 4 sub-cycles: stain area #1, stain area #2, wipe area #1, wipe area #2. Then break, get new gloves, and start over. A 20 minute cycle might equal 2 shelves, or 2 boards from ceiling to floor. Our spreadsheet had over 200 cells. At the end of the day, the only way to get stain off your skin was to apply paint thinner directly to your skin in violation of the instructions, common sense, and one's best interests...

 

celebrating, doing shots, standing, wood staining.

Chaenomeles x Superba - 'Rowallane' (Flowering Quince)

 

In the walled garden at Rowallane - this cultivar is named after the gardens. The bee hives are just the other side of the wall and there are a couple of feral colonies in the roof of the building beside the garden that seem to have overwintered extremely well judging from the numbers of bees coming out from under the roof there on Saturday.

 

The very out-of-focus yellow pollen load can be seen in this picture.

12 politicians in Japan are against the inhumane decision by the ministry of education raising the limit of annual radiation exposure to the children in Japan from 1 mSv to 20 mSv.

 

Tomoko Abe (Member of the House of Representatives, Social Democratic Party 4th term)

Yoshifu Arita (Member of the House of Councilors, Democratic Party of Japan)

Mitsuji Ishida (Member of the House of Representatives, Democratic Party of Japan 1st term)

Tetsuo Inami (Member of the House of Representatives, Democratic Party of Japan 2nd term)

Azuma Konno (Member of the house of Councilours, Democratic Pary of Japan)

Kusuo Oshima (Member of the house of Councilours, Democratic Pary of Japan)

Ryuhei Kawada (Member of the house of Councilours, Democratic Pary of Japan)

Ryoichi Hattori (Member of the House of Representatives, Social Democratic Party 1st term)

Makoto Hirayama (Member of the House of Councilors, Democratic Party of Japan)

Mizuho Fukushima (Member of the House of Councilors, Social Democratic Party 3rd term)

Hiroyuki Moriyama (Member of the House of Representatives, Democratic Party 1st term)

Makoto Yamazaki (Member of the House of Representatives, Democratic Party 1st term)

 

Special Advisor to the Cabinet , Kosako Toshiso resigned today. He said that it's not acceptable for raising annual radiation limit for the children 1mSv to 20 mSv. He also criticized that the crisis management of the government is disorgnazed and haphazard.

There's no future for the country which neglect their children. - Masayoshi Son Softbank CEO and Donates USD$120 million to Earthquake and Tsunami Relief Efforts. Also he will set up an advisory group on the use of natural energy sources.

 

The International Commission on Radiological Protection recommends that all radiation exposure be kept as low as achievable, and for the public, on top of background radiation and any medical procedures, should not exceed 1 mSv per year.

 

For nuclear industry workers, they recommend a maximum permissible annual dose of 20 mSv averaged over five years, with no more than 50 mSv in any one year.

 

However, on April 19th, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) notified the Board of Education and related institutions in Fukushima Prefecture to raise annual radiation exposure limit from 1mSv to 20 mSv. This is way to high for the children.

 

20 mSv per year is comparable to the legally recognized dose for inducing leukemia in nuclear power plant workers. It is also comparable to the maximum dose allowed for nuclear power plant workers in Germany.

 

If the government allows 20 mSv per year for the children, we will see many children suffer from thyroid cancer in five years like what happened on the children in Chernobyl.

 

Please click the link below and sign the petition for the children in Japan by Sat. April 30, 2011 at 23:00 in Japanese time (UTC/GMT +9 hours)

This petition is only for protecting the children from unacceptable level of 20 mSv

health and store update!

 

I am recovering from health concerns, slowly but surely! Seeing doctors now only every 3 weeks instead of every week. Sweet sweet progress.

 

Real life also has me swamped. Am having a studio built for me in my backyard to work on: real life art (painting/photography/collage/hand made jewelry/crafts), streaming set up, possibly teaching one-on-one art classes, and content for my patrons on Patreon. As well as re-opening my online store! We've had a great number of set backs when it has come to the studio construction. Oy vey! But electric gets finished this week, then hvac, the RE-DO the plumbing, and we get to start on making it pretty.

 

With studio coming up, I am also re-learning a whole lot about new online store set ups, different ways to stream, new (to me) programs, making new graphics/logos, and digital content creation. My head ASLPODE.

 

In Second Life, I am not absent! Just quiet. I am doing and re-doing a lot of behind the scenes changes for major overhauls (and this was even BEFORE the E2V news. man! So much change!). New content creation has been put on hold in SL till I get all the back end stuff done. I have big spreadsheets, elaborate checklists, boxes in boxes... it's nuts but chipping away at it a bit at a time!

 

You will know when I am getting close to done when I post the new blogger search! Hopefully within the next month.

 

There is so much more to say and so much left out, but I thought a quick overview to say I am still here and working in SL, just quiet like on the new content end. I am a one woman (plus 2 dogs and a bird) team, so it all goes as fast as it can but also as slow as it will.

 

Thank you for being understanding. *paper moon* thanks you for still caring and loving what I make.

 

You can always see what I am doing outside of SL on Instagram, Patreon, Twitch, & Facebook!

Emily is curious as to what the grownups are always looking at on the computer. Unfortunately for her, Sebastian was the one just working on it, and it's spreadsheets full of numbers! Not very interesting...

A Photo from Day 2 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

At Didcot Railway Centre, their "Diamond Jubilee Gala" had 4 steam locomotives with 2 each on the "Main Demonstration Line" and the shorter "Branch Line." 2 diesels powered some early morning and evening trains.

Several Steam Locomotives were also on Static Display and it was possible to go round the sheds.

  

Here, Left to Right are :-

1340 - "Trojan" - 0-4-0ST

5051 - "Drysllwyn Castle" later Earl Bathurst - Castle Class - 4-6-0

5900 - "Hinderton Hall" - Hall Class - 4-6-0

6998 - "Burton Agnes Hall" - Modified Hall Class - 4-6-0

Okay, I suck. I haven't been updating Flickr and my pain in the neck store manager is on my case - she even made a spreadsheet!. Please go to Nuke's flickr page and tell her to lay off poor, overworked, tired Sliye. Extra points and maybe free stuff if you call her a hobag. xox

 

This is the [RnR] Montana Bench - it was released at our beloved Cosmo two weeks ago, but now you can pick it up in store :)

 

It comes with menu-based texture changes, and they're interchangeable, so you can have dark wood with light leather, or light wood with dark leather or inbetween or all dark or all light! Fancy!

 

Rhyme nor Reason Main Store:

maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Paracosm/40/194/28

 

Don't forget, RnR is running a photo comp, any photo containing an RnR item that tags us on flickr is eligible to enter and voting will be done at the end of month live music event in the Paracosm club beneath the store. Last Friday of the month at 7am SLT. Lovely L$ and lots of fun stuff up for grabs. :)

Nothing nicer than a cold beer on a beautiful sailing boat with your colleagues after a long day looking at figures and spreadsheets... Cheers!

there was some solar explosion on the 14th of november. i was hoping to see an aurora or something on the sky. i was lucky. two days in a row it was clear sky and really quiet weather. and i saw.. "something". it was beautiful!

This week-end involved 2 Heritage Railways with the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

Here, after arriving at Weybourne Station hauled by Double Header of WD 90775 "The Royal Norfolk Regiment" and LNER Loco 8572 I got this photo of Riddles designed and Horwich Works built BR Std, 4MT Loco 76084 which I think was the only one of the 6 locos I didn't managed to get hauled by during this Steam Gala..

 

There were 6 Locomotives in Steam for the Gala Event Sunday.
