Okay well technically it’s just regular grass but work with me here. It’s also actually a Civil War site, but again, let’s not be picky.
This panorama is at Harper’s Ferry National Historical Park, but it’s no at the bit everyone goes to. This is the Murphy-Chambers Farm.
While not nearly as visited as the primary site, it does make an excellent walking area with 1-3 miles of mostly flat ground (there are a few ravines if you choose to take them).
Amongst other things here you can see the footprint of the John Brown Fort and a gorgeous vista of the Shenandoah River.
There are also some earthworks since this is where Confederate General A.P. Hill performed his flanking maneuver on the Union forces.
While I like the scale of this image, I did make a basic error in composition which is that I left the horizon close to the middle of the image. I should have either shown less sky and more grass or more sky and less grass.
In my defense it is much harder to compose those elements when taking a series of portrait orientation images to stitch into a landscape panorama.
A small front hub idea.
Two black towballs for suspension and a gray towball for steering.
This hub can be applied to large tyre of 8455, 8458, 8466 and to small tyre such as 56 x 30 R
Technic Axle Joiner Perpendicular Triple(32291) and Technic Connector Toggle Joint Smooth Double with 2 Pins(48496) were used.
Finally held an A/B test on my 100 wpc class amplifiers, I can't say this is 100% A/B test since I can't switch speakers and amps while playing the same music, so there were minutes to reconnect to another set up before listen to the same music. I started with three kinds of music (Cover version of "I left my heart in San Francisco", Take Five from The Dave Brubeck Quartet, and Koji Tamaki's "Wine Red no Kokoro"), but end up I only listen to one for a fast comparison.
The first amp is the 2012 Sony STRDH130 receiver bought way before I get back to vintage audio equipment, the second is the 80's Technics SU-V8 and the 70's Mcintosh combo C26+MC2105.
Tested with 2 pairs of speakers, JBL 2600 ( 45 Hz to 23 kHz, 89dB-sensitivity ) and then the SL6si ( 45 Hz to 20 kHz, 84dB-sensitivity ) with same 14 gauge speaker wires, played AIFF music file via computer. Positions of all equipment and my listening spot remain the same during the tests.
The final used music is "Koji Tamaki's Wine Red no Kokoro 玉置浩二 ワインレッドの心 (2002)" track no.2 same as CD title (Wine Red's Heart), acoustic-style music with male vocal, acoustic & electric guitars, percussions, and keyboard. I chose this song for final audition because the vocal and background music could sound a big different when played in different speakers.
If you don’t have money for armored vehicles developed under the JLTV program, or even for outdated HMMWV, then these vehicles are for you... ;)

I spent the first day of my break getting the Corsa back from my local garage, in preparation for a long trip tomorrow, and also nipped through to Glasgow to pick up this gem that I got for £80 on eBay. It's all good apart from the fact that I'm only getting sound through one of the speakers, so that needs to be sorted. I'm not sure how old it is, but it was made in Japan so it's not especially new, or else it would have been made in China... It sounds great playing through just one speaker - old school quality. I still have my Technics CD player in the living room that is twenty-odd years old, linked up to British Mission speakers that are even older. Things really were made to last back then.
"The sun was by now setting on the turbo era and new technical restrictions on turbocharged pressures and fuel consumption were limiting the power of the engines
Even the name of the 1988 car reflects its close similarity with the previous model, as it wasn’t considered necessary to create a whole new car for the turbo engine because the new normally aspirated model designed by Barnard had already been worked on for quite some time. The result was that the F1-87/88C was the last single-seater to adopt the turbocharged six-cylinder.
Just one win brightened an otherwise bland 1988 season. This was a real disappointment after the very positive end to the previous one with Berger and Alboreto’s double at Monza on September 11. Enzo Ferrari had passed away less than a month before, on August 14, not long after his 90th birthday and the double had seemed the perfect homage to his memory. Ferrari was the only team to have broken McLaren vicelike grip on victory (the latter had taken 15 of the 16 Grands Prix!) and despite the fact that the Scuderia scored just one victory, it still came second in the Constructors’ Championship courtesy of a host of good placings..."

Body design remake using extra parts, including new wheels and panels
Camera: Kiev 4AM;
Lens: Jupiter-3 50/1.5;
Film: Tasma Mikrat Izopan - expired (ISO32);
Developing: Rodinal (1+100 stand) - 45min. 20-21C.
Lego Technic Merlo ROTO Telehandler in 1:11 scale.
The dimensions: 80 x 25 x 30 cm, total weight – 5,7 kg. The max height is 83 cm. The model contains approximately 5100 parts. The model has eight remote controlled functions (three S-bricks, 14 motors).
The 1924 Targa Florio winner car was a 2 liter, 4 cylinder, super-charged Mercedes, with Chistian Werner at the wheel. This car is an early example of the famous Merceds Compressor series, culminating in the famous SSK and SSKL.
Unlike the usual white livery of the Mercedes racers, this car was actually painted red: Rumour has it this was a camouflage strategy to stop Italian fanatics from throwing rocks at the passing car, because it might be taken for Italian.
In the 1920ies, the race cars were actually driven to the race track on public roads like normal automobiles. For this trip, mudguards and license plates had to be mounted, to comply with traffic regulations. My model is shown in both configurations: as a slick racer, and as a roadworthy automobile.
Lego model with four-cylinder engine, two speed gearbox, differential, leaf spring suspension, steering, and operational hand crank.
finally set up the decks in their final resting place (overlooking the sea), and busted out a handful of vinyl.
Ah this would be Ilonna and her new makeover for Technical 2. She looks loads of different...somewhat asian now. It looks nice against her skin, can't wait to actually style it and do some crazy things with it. ;)
So the pose looks a bit wonky...I was trying to do something different with the angle of her legs--they're suppose to be going behind her.
Dress was nasty to draw...if you all size it you know what I mean. I forgot to add nails to the hand that I drew(well I drew both, it's pretty interesting drawing my own hands onto hers...haha). I wish I could have worked on this more, but this week was chaotic. Schools over so there's so much more free time, but hopefully I get a job at the mall. :\

The McLaren MP4/4 was a highly successful Formula 1 car that competed in the 1988 Formula One season. It was designed by American engineer Steve Nichols, with assistance from the team's Technical Director Gordon Murray. Nichols based the design on the lowline Brabham BT55, designed by Murray for the 1986 season when Murray was chief designer at Brabham. It is one of the most dominant Formula One cars ever built, winning all but one race and claiming all but one pole position in the 1988 season.

My thoughts on how the new Technic turntable can look.
It has the same connecting points as the old one, but no internal gear teeth. It has 60 teeth, which make a nice 1:5 reduction with a 12T double bevel gear.
A small red and black spider, built as a 8066 alternate. Possibly Ambicodamus southwelli, but I've never been to Tasmania. So I can't say for sure…

Not technically a Parish Church as Cleeton is a Ward of the Parish of Bitterley . The Church here was built by T Nicholson of Hereford in 1878 but as a settlement Cleeton is believed to be a Dark Age foundation and a earlier Church may yet be discovered. The Church is worth a visit for the views North and West alone.
Jordanville Technical School opened in 1954 on a site along Vannam Drive, Ashwood, between Damper and Gardiner's Creeks (see J 10 in the 1966 Melways). This posed problems not solved until, due to continued housing development, Damper Creek was replaced by a drain and Gardiner's Creek was diverted. This made 'grounds improvement' possible. The technical schools predated the first high school in the area, Ashwood High School opening in 1958. This was perhaps an indication of the perceived social status of the working class Jordanville Housing Commission estate.
Ashwood College was formed in 1988 from the merger of Ashwood High School and Jordanville Technical School. The new school was located on the High School site and the Technical School site, across the road, was developed for housing in 1993. Beechwood Terrace, Scenic Drive and Clearview Close are located on the former Jordanville Technical School site.
Ashwood State School was adjoining and directly to the south of Jordanville Technical School. This location was also developed for housing, with Malmsbury Drive, and Peppermint and Lavender courts on the former primary school site.
