NAS Oceana and the Virginia Beach City Public School (VBCPS) system have once again partnered to provide every fifth-grader enrolled in Virginia Beach City Public Schools (VBCPS) the opportunity to take a one-of-kind field trip to Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana, Friday, Sept. 15. The special Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Lab Day, was part of the annual Air Show. This event is being provided free of cost for all students and every child had a chance to take part in hands-on activities and learn about STEM careers in a real-world setting. This included displays and exhibits from NASA Langley, the Office of Naval Research and Naval Research Laboratory, Navy Expeditionary Combat Command, Wesleyen University, Engineering for Kids, Old Dominion University, Landstown High School, Navy history and heritage command, U.S. Naval research laboratory and Virginia Department of Transportation.

polished stem with BRASSO but it was sanded with 400 grit before to smooth the deep scratches.
update: It's now fitted to my Joe Gardin, I'll do some pictures soon.
UPDATE: I now have a buffer so polishing a stem takes me no more than 15 minutes for a much higher gloss... but I still need to hand sand first. X(

Stems formed in 2011 with the idea of seeking a new relationship between experimental guitar and classical instruments, to create music with the energy of rock music but with elongated and intense structures of Western and Indian classical music.
To date the band have released one E.P - The 20 minute long track 'Only When all is broken can the truth be seen' and an album 'POLEMICS'. The artwork of both CD's are translucent layered images printed on tracing paper.
In 2013 they embarked on a successful 15 date tour of Europe to promote the album 'POLEMICS' which further developed their following, based around their passionate and intense live performances.
The name Stems is derived from the idea of roots diverging to produce unique strands, all of which are bound to a central body.
Parish Church "Maria Hietzing"
In 1419, the church was consecrated to the title of "Mary's Birth."
The Hietzinger parish church in the core stems from the middle of the 13th century, the exterior of the chancel and nave is of late Gothic character. The western façade with the tower is a neo-Gothic addition from the 19th century.
Already around 1100 a small chapel of the German Knight's Order should have existed, which was consecrated to St. Birgitta or Brigitta. In 1253 a document confirms the transfer of the chapel to the monastery Klosterneuburg (Lower Austria). From 1414 to 1419, the church was enlarged and consecrated to the title "Mary's Birth". It suffered heavy damage in 1484 by the Hungarians; in 1529 it was burnt down by the Turks. This event is linked to a legend about the wonderful salvation of four Hietzingers (people). This raised the prestige of the church so much that "Maria Hietzing" soon became a popular pilgrimage site.
The most necessary repairs could be carried out in 1539. In 1587-93, the church was completely restored by master builder Jakob Vivian; already in 1590 the new consecration took place. Not later than from this period stems the slender, octagonal tower, which existed until the facade was altered in the 19th century, located was it at the northwest corner of the nave.
Its the roof overhanging part had three stories, two of which were furnished with windows, the lower one with key loopholes. The church due to frequent threats by warlike events may have been fortified. It was already destroyed again by the Hungarians in 1604/05. The reconstruction work resulted in a comprehensive change, especially in the Baroque interior design (1660). In 1683, the Turks devastated the house of God for the second time. The vault came down, and with the exception of the Baroque stucco and frescoes in the presbytery, the furnishings were destroyed.
After rebuilding, in 1690, under provost Christoph Matthaei, the chapel of Saint Leopold was built south of the nave.
As a result of the increased inflow of pilgrims, a chapel was also built on the north side of the church in 1735.
Due to the proximity of Schönbrunn, the church was visited by members of the imperial house in the 18th century. Numerous foundations and extensions bear witness to this. On 4 April 1786 Hietzing was raised to the status of a parish; before the church was considered a branch of Penzing (14th district of Vienna). In the mid-forties of the 19th century Father Joachim Haspinger, a combatant of Andreas Hofer, daily read the Mass.
The last major expansion followed 1860-64, the interior was enlarged and the façade with the tower erected.
The restoration of the interior of the church in 1953 got rid of the damages caused by the end of the Second World War. The three glass windows with colorful ornaments originate from the year 1955. A comprehensive facade renovation took place 1994/95. [...]
Pfarrkirche „Maria Hietzing“
1419 wurde die Kirche auf den Titel „Maria Geburt“ geweiht.
Die Hietzinger Pfarrkirche stammt im Kern aus der Mitte des 13. Jahrhunderts, das Äußere von Chor und Langhaus hat spätgotischen Charakter. Die Westfassade mit dem Turm ist ein neugotischer Anbau aus dem 19. Jahrhundert.
Schon um 1100 soll eine kleine Kapelle des Deutschen Ritterordens bestanden haben, die der hl. Birgitta oder Brigitta geweiht war. 1253 bestätigt eine Urkunde die Übergabe der Kapelle an das Stift Klosterneuburg. 1414 bis 1419 wurde die Kirche vergrößert und auf den Titel „Maria Geburt“ geweiht. Sie erlitt 1484 durch die Ungarn schweren Schaden; 1529 brannten sie die Türken nieder. An dieses Ereignis knüpft eine Legende über die wunderbare Errettung von vier Hietzingern. Dies hob das Ansehen der Kirche so stark, dass „Maria Hietzing” bald eine beliebte Wallfahrtsstätte wurde.
Die notwendigsten Reperaturen konnten 1539 durchgeführt werden, 1587–93 wurde die Kirche durch Baumeister Jakob Vivian völlig wiederhergestellt; bereits 1590 erfolgte die Neueinweihung. Spätenstens aus dieser Zeit stammt der bis zur Fassadenveränderung im 19. Jahrhundert bestehende schlanke, achteckige Turm an der nordwestlichen Ecke des Langhauses.
Sein das Dachgesims überragender Teil wies drei Geschoße auf, von denen die beiden oberen mit Fenstern, das untere mit Schlüsselschießscharten ausgestattet war. Die Kirche dürte infolge der oftmaligen Bedrohungen durch kriegerische Ereignisse befestigt gewesen sein. Bereits 1604/05 wurde sie durch die Ungarn erneut zerstört. Die Wiederaufbauarbeiten führten zu umfassenden Veränderungen, besonders zur barocken Ausgestaltung des Innenraumes (1660). 1683 verwüsteten die Türken das Gotteshaus zum zweiten Mal. Das Gewölbe stürzte ein, und mit Ausnahme der barocken Stukkatur und der Fresken im Presbyterium wurde die Einrichtung vernichtet.
Nach dem Wiederaufbau erfolgte 1690 unter Protest Christoph Matthaei der Anbau der Leopoldskapelle südlich des Langhauses.
Infolge des verstärkten Wallfahrerzustromes wurde 1735 auch an der Nordseite eine Kapelle angebaut.
Durch die Nähe von Schönbrunn wurde die Kirche im 18. Jahrhundert von Mitgliedern des kaiserlichen Hauses gerne besucht. Zahlreiche Stiftungen und Erweiterungen geben davon Zeugnis. Am 4. 4. 1786 wurde Hietzing zur Pfarre erhoben; vorher galt die Kirche als Filiale von Penzing. Mitte der vierziger Jahre des 19. Jahrhunderts las hier Pater Joachim Haspinger, eine Kampfgefährte Andreas Hofers, täglich die hl. Messe.
Die letzte große Erweiterung erfolgte 1860–64 der Innenraum wurde vergrößert und die Fassade mit dem Turm errichtet.
Die Restaurierung des Kircheninneren 1953 beseitigte die gegen Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges verursachten Beschädigungen. Die drei Glasfenster mit bunten Ornamenten stammen aus dem Jahr 1955. Eine umfassende Fassadenrenovierung erfolgte 1994/95. [...]
Woody Stem
A woody stem is a stem that is hard textured and has a secondary xylem. Generally a plant with a woody stem has been growing for two years and has an enlarged stem to accommodate greater circulation. This tree trunk is a woody stem because of its texture and the age of the tree.

After investing in a Sony SEL30M35 macro lens I immediately set about taking predictable pictures of insects and flowers but then decided instead of random photos I needed a theme - so here it is, from another hobby, pictures of my mountain bike. It gave me something to focus on instead of just snapping away and I got to grips more with the lens taking lots of different styles of pictures.
In the end, none of them are really showing the full close up capabilities of the lens so I will be doing more with it later!
