Because so few of us sew our own clothes anymore, the vocabulary for describing fabrics has fallen into disuse. I feel like we need more opportunities to use words like organza, voile, and chiffon (besides a wedding dress or curtains).
Officially, “swiss dot” is a pattern of woven dots on a sheer cotton fabric. Neither this top nor these tights are cotton, but they are dotted!
Shirt, thrifted. Skirt, Madewell. Tights, Hanes. Boots, Seychelles. Earrings, Cozlane.
I think you can never built in too many styles. This was really just a tablescrap I built around the weird track the barrel runs in to adjust elevation. It's probably impractical for any application more serious than this one, but I like stuff like that anyway. Plus, it's been ages since I built a tank.
This mysterious collection of images have been discovered within the photographic collections of Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums.
Reference: TWCMS -H13098-73-12
The lantern slides are from a series titled 'Psychic Photography From A New Angle' and feature eerie images of the supposedly paranormal and unknown forces caught on camera.
Very little is known of the origins of this collection. The slides were designed to accompany a lecture by a Mr C.P. MacCarthy of 15 Wilkinson Street, Sheffield.
Mr MacCarthy produced the images under test conditions in 1934 in front of an invited committee at 76 Clarkehouse Road, Sheffield. He states the intention was to ‘demonstrate under test conditions Fake Psychic Photography’ to this committee.
Mr MacCarthy states his three reasons for this demonstration.
1.To prove the possibility of Fake under test conditions.
2.To show you cannot be too critical of such phenomena.
3.To indicate the increasing scope for fraud with the probability of genuine spirit photography.
Mr MacCarthy further guarantees ‘in the sum of five pounds, payable to any charitable institution, that no collusion exists, or has existed between myself and any other party in connection with this demonstration.’
Little is currently known of the Psychic demonstration. Who sat on the invited committee? Who was Mr MacCarthy? Why was he investigating Psychic Photography?
Can you help us with this information?

For my coming Jabba's palace I've built some technical device. I've made an instruction to see how I used some SNOT-techniques.
I've been working on a realistic door mechanism based off an old prototype by Nicjasno (LPEPower). The red lever in the center console is for the diff lock, and there will be a switch behind it for the fog lights.

I know it's pretty much the exact angle of the preceding two. Going to upload others soon, but for right now this will have to do.
I had one SL1200Mk II lied in the storage.
The restoration involved a lot of job in changing power supply, replacing some electronics and cables, looking for some plastic spare parts and enclosure in ebay and most of all the major job repainting the body with toyota black mica.
The table is equipped with shure 97 needle.
I've had my hands finaly on the lower left one, I've put them clockwise of age, upper left is the oldest, lower left is the more newer version. Most rare is the left under I think, saw only 2 of these all these years...
Enjoy Ted's continuing adventures/antics/escapdes in a second, revealing video!
FYI:
This episode is made from old photos I have been tooo slow in editing.
But the recent troubles with moc-pages.com have lead me to fear that it may not be long before the site vanishes. The recent troubles lit a fire in me to finish my editing, as I don't want Ted's adventures/antics/escapdes to vanish too!
As with Episode 1, any background foliage in a photo is supplied from photos I took in 2009 at various locations in Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom.
Background music is a snippet from Warren Zevon's song, Splendid Isolation.

Decided to participate in to Eurobricks Technic C-Model Contest and this is my C model made from the 8071 set.
There is still 5 days left so if anyone's interested can still take part in it.
ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst during his last week of training at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, USA. Alexander reviewed the main tasks he has to perform during his mission. His training started two years ago and has moved from general maintenance classes to specific tasks related to the Horizons mission.
Among these tasks are work on the airlock, the replacement of umbilical equipment for Extra Vehicular Activities (EVAs), testing of tools, review of experiments, making repairs and checking the Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module.
Alexander will be launched on 6 June with US astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor and Russian cosmonaut Sergei Prokopyev from the Baikonur cosmodrome, Kazakhstan in the Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft. Soyuz MS-09 will be the 138th flight of a Soyuz spacecraft.
The mission is called Horizons to evoke exploring our Universe, looking far beyond our planet and broadening our knowledge. His first mission was called Blue Dot. Alexander will take over command of the International Space Station for the second half of his mission. This is only the second time that a European astronaut will take up this leading position on the space outpost – the first was ESA astronaut Frank De Winne in 2009. Alexander Gerst is the 11th German citizen to fly into space.
The science programme is packed with European research: more than 50 experiments will deliver benefits to people back on Earth and prepare for future space exploration.
