At the Albuquerque Downtown Station, busses and an Emergency Services vehicle are piled up at the entrance. One of the Technicians/Police waves for me to stop photographing but I didn’t see her when I was taking the shot and I moved away…
Die Rapp Gruppe entschied ihr Kompetenzfeld Gebäude mit Architekten, Tragswerksplaner, Gebäudetechniker und Industrieplaner in das aufstrebende Dreispitzareal umzusiedeln. Gewählt wurde das Transitlager, ein vom dänischen Architekten Bjarke Ingels in ein Wohn- und Geschäftshaus transformiertes, ehemaliges Zwischenlager für amerikanische Autos und Zigarren. Rapp plante und realisierte den Mieterausbau für 150 Arbeitsplätze als Open Space in den extrem langgestreckten 2. und 3. Obergeschossen.
Auf zweimal 114m Länge entstand eine Bürolandschaft mit grosszügigen, doppelgeschossigen Agoren, Sitznischen und gläserne Besprechungsboxen. Die Arbeitsplätze reihen sich entlang der durch die massiven Betonstützen rhythmisierte Fassadenflucht auf und profitieren von viel Tageslicht und Sicht auf den Freilager-Platz.
Der ursprüngliche Lagercharakter wird im lasierten Ortbeton und der offen geführten Haustechnikinstallationen spürbar. Einfache Grundmaterialien, wie die farblos behandelten Stahlgeländer und das geölte Seekiefer-Sperrholz, welches für verschiedene Einbauten und Abdeckungen eingesetzt wurde, setzen einzelne Akzente. Am Boden korrespondieren der sandfarbene textile Belag mit dem naturbelassenen Hartsteinholz-Belag der Agoren. Schwere Vorhänge, welche an klassische Wolltücher erinnern, dienen als temporäre Raumtrenner der zweigeschossigen Lufträumen. Die vollflächig mit Holzwolle-Akustikplatten belegten Decken, der Teppich und die schweren Vorhänge erzeugen eine sehr angenehme, gedämpfte Akustik. The Rapp Group decided to relocate its competence field Buildings with architects, structural engineers, building technicians and industrial planners to the up-and-coming Dreispitz area. The Transit Warehouse was chosen, a former interim storage facility for American cars and cigars transformed into a residential and commercial building by Danish architect Bjarke Ingels. Rapp planned and realised the tenant fit-out for 150 workplaces as open space on the extremely elongated 2nd and 3rd upper floors.
An office landscape with generous, two-storey agoras, seating niches and glass conference boxes was created over a length of two times 114m. The workplaces are lined up along the façade line, which is rhythmically structured by the massive concrete columns, and benefit from a lot of daylight and a view of the open-air warehouse square.
The original warehouse character can be felt in the glazed in-situ concrete and the open building services installations. Simple basic materials, such as the colourlessly treated steel railings and the oiled maritime pine plywood used for various fixtures and coverings, set individual accents. On the floor, the sand-coloured textile covering corresponds with the natural hardwood flooring of the agors. Heavy curtains, reminiscent of classic woollen cloths, serve as temporary room dividers for the two-storey air spaces. The ceilings, which are fully covered with wood wool acoustic panels, the carpet and the heavy curtains create very pleasant, muted acoustics.

This is Axel. One of our technicians was leaving the building late at night a couple weeks ago and caught a glimpse of a kitten in a big drainage pipe near the parking lot of our practice. She set out a Have-A-Heart trap and for 2 days and 2 nights through freezing temperatures, rain, frost, and wind, the trap remained empty. On the third morning, there was Axel, huddled up in the back of the trap.
I can't tell you how much he reminds me of Riceball/Royalty (for Riceball/Royalty's story you can go to this link www.flickr.com/photos/77654185@N07/25975226737/in/photoli...). When you reach for him, he cowers away as if he expects to be hurt but the second you make contact, he starts purring and melts into you. He LOVES laps and head rubs and if you stop petting him too soon, he gently taps you to remind you he is still there, waiting for more. Riceball was just the same. He also had to be reminded daily how much he loved laps and being petted.
We estimate Axel is about 5 months old and is now neutered, vaccinated and ready to be adopted.
Thanks to my mom, Bennilover, and Flickr Friends Regina, Chickpea and Bigbird, it looks like an informal group is being started based on themes I wanted to use while taking pictures in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. We chose "Words" for this week's theme. The "words" in my photo this week are Axel's contact information on an old business card for our practice. If you would like to join our informal group, feel free to post pictures of "Words" this week or "On the ground" - last week's theme.

Noctilux on M6TTL
My Noctilux get accurate focus on M6 where always misfocus on M8, other lenses do not have this problem, eg, the 50mm Summilux. I've been told by local Leica technician that the 0.95 Noctilux will focus perfectly on M8, wondering if that is true. View On Black
Technicians at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have completed applying thermal protection system material to the launch vehicle stage adapter (LVSA) of NASA’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket for Artemis III, which will land astronauts on the Moon to advance long-term lunar exploration and scientific discovery and inspire the Artemis Generation. The LVSA is a cone-shaped element connecting the mega rocket’s core stage to its interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS), partially enclosing it and protecting its avionics and electrical systems from the extreme pressures, sounds, and temperatures during launch and flight.
Teams at Marshall began applying the thermal protection system material earlier this spring. Unlike other parts of the SLS rocket, the thermal protection system material for the LVSA is applied entirely by hand using a spray gun. During application, the technicians use a thin measuring rod to gauge the proper thickness. Once the thermal protection system has cured, certain areas are sanded down to meet parameters. The entire process takes several months.
The LVSA is fully manufactured at Marshall by NASA, lead contractor Teledyne Brown Engineering, and the Jacobs Space Exploration Group’s ESSCA contract. The LVSA for Artemis III is the last of its kind as future SLS rockets will transition to its next, more powerful Block 1B configuration beginning with Artemis IV.
NASA is working to land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon under Artemis. SLS is part of NASA’s backbone for deep space exploration, along with the Orion spacecraft, advanced spacesuits and rovers, the Gateway in orbit around the Moon, and commercial human landing systems. SLS is the only rocket that can send Orion, astronauts, and supplies to the Moon in a single mission.

We went to the legendary Lick Observatory located on Mt. Hamilton high above the Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. It was a special night for photographers. Once the telescope was in place, the lights went out, and all that was left was dark glowing red. Eyes adapt well to darkness, which takes about 10 minutes. A dark red light is used so that the human eyes can retain night vision. This is a 210º fisheye lens shot pointed straight up. At the bottom you see the technician in front of the control panel. In the center is the refracting telescope and the opened dome.

The original photo was a a piece of playground equipment that our grandkids really like. Photoleap was used to turn it into a moon-containment device.
Engineers and technicians at Cape Canaveral are preparing the Psyche spacecraft for liftoff, which is slated for Oct. 5.
With less than 100 days to go before its Oct. 5 launch, NASA’s Psyche spacecraft is undergoing final preparations at Cape Canaveral, Florida. Teams of engineers and technicians are working almost around the clock to ensure the orbiter is ready to journey 2.5 billion miles (4 billion kilometers) to a metal-rich asteroid that may tell us more about planetary cores and how planets form.
In this image, the high gain antenna of NASA’s Psyche spacecraft takes center stage in this photo, captured at the Astrotech Space Operations facility near the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

As a fun fact, I originally developed the upper arm design for Alieerah's Maqué The Technician. I wasn't planned to use it, but it looked nice to waste it, so here it went =D

Dr. Hibbert reviews the X-ray taken of Homer Simpson’s head. He has to tell Homer that he can’t let those donuts go to his head!
Being an X-ray technician, or as it may also be referred to as a Radiologic Technologist, can be both challenging and rewarding work. In the field of medical imaging, X-rays, along with CT scans, MRIs, and other non-invasive tests can offer radiologists and physicians important health details that can assess a patient’s health without surgery. This field not only requires the basics of biology, chemistry, and physics, but also human anatomy, physiology, and a little psychology. Yes, knowing how to position a patient in the proper ‘pose’ is part of the job. Knowing how to set the X-ray machine and adjust for proper exposure is also required. Personal safety is also necessary as the technician must also safeguard himself or herself from the harmful rays emitted over time. That is why they must scan themselves to alert to possible over-exposure to X-rays.

Lulu modelling and photographed in casual outfit. Newport, Wales, United Kingdom, 29th January 2016.
She is seen here, modelling in a light brown and cream coloured stripped faux fur coat made by Quality Fashion, bought second-hand from a charity shop. She is wearing her own black scoop neckline top, with her own dark blue jeans. She is wearing a pair of black high heels. The photographs were taken in front of a studio backdrop, using a Nikon D200 DSLR.
In 1985, when I was at a deaf school in my last year, I decided to get into doing photography as a career. It is the kind of off-beat job that I would like to do, so I tried to apply for a college course studying photography. But the hearing teachers, my own family, family friends, career advisors, and even the social workers, told me that I should not do photography as a job because I am deaf.
In those days here in the United Kingdom, there were discrimination against disabled people, as there weren’t much laws protecting our rights at that time. My mother told me I can’t do photography, because I’m deaf with speech impaired.
I tried to make an effort to get them into helping me get a college course, studying photography. But they got me on a training course at college, instead of a proper serious course. From 1987 to 1989, I spent two days studying traditional graphic design while at college, with three days work experience for a professional photographer as part of my training course, mainly as photographer’s assistant and darkroom technician.
I admit that I became hooked on doing graphic design, so in additional to wanting to become a photographer, I decided I want to become a graphic designer as a second option.
After leaving college, I attempted to get a job working either in photography or graphic design, but as I mentioned earlier, in those days, there were still discrimination against the disabled people, so employers are likely to favour hearing people over deaf people.
For a few years, I continue to do my own photography and my own graphic design projects at home, in order to keep up my skills, while at same time, trying to find a job. Then I got married, and started a family life, but divorced her and I became a full-time single parent, so everything was put on hold for a while, until the kids were much older.
Finally, in the United Kingdom, we got The Equality Act 2010, that would protect our rights.
Few years later, while my kids were old enough to attend full-time school, I resumed my own projects, mainly to refresh my skills. I would need to improve my portfolio if I were to try to apply for a job, or may even consider going freelance. One of the graphic design projects I planned to do, requested a female model.
So I searched online, looked at some of the modelling agencies and model booking websites.
I booked Lulu for a two-hours outdoors photo-shoot in Newport, Gwent, South Wales. I arrived at her home, met up with her, and went through the details of the photo-shoot. We went into city centre, and I found a perfect location for my needs, did the photo-shoot for my graphic design project.
When the outdoors photo-shoots were done, there was still time to spare, I think maybe one and half hour of the booked two-hours slot was used up, leaving maybe half hour left.
I think that both she and her husband didn’t think it was right, I think they feel like they were overcharging me for less time used, or something like that. They were nice and polite, and they allowed me to use up what was left of the booked timeslot. They pointed out that they have a small makeshift studio in their spare bedroom, and suggested I could use it for some indoor photo-shoots, use what was left of the booked timeslot to do more photographs if I wish to do so. I figured why not? Not only that I would get my money’s worth, but also take a chance to do more refresher photography.
And this is one of the series of photos I took in the remaining half hour of the booked timeslot.
Point of note: Lulu had left a glowing and positive review on my profile, on the model booking website, pointing out that despite my being deaf with speech impaired, she had found working with me a pleasure and enjoyable.

It has been a vey bad period for the First Order. Under the feeble leadership of the un-mighty Kylo Ren they collected failure after failure.
However things are going to change soon. The First Order has completed the construction of the over of the top successor of Starkiller base: the dreaded…
Overkill Base!
Kylo’s new toy is a planet size station with the ability to instantly teleporting across the whole universe shooting dark energy powered unicorns which deploy the deadly Hocus-pocus warheads on the unsuspecting victims.
Don’t ask from where they deploy them, trust me it’s better. (Hint: it's from the rear)
The super-mega-uber awesomeness of the First Order’s last technological terror is so great even before becoming fully operative it already claimed its first victims: logic and common sense.
Now the First Order is ready to unleash the weapon of “plot destruction” on the Resistance and Kylo is excited like… well, an immature wannabe villain.
The day has come! The Resistance will perish under the colorful rain of the unicorns’ deadly payload of Hocus-pocus death! The First Order is so badass (they think if they say it enough times, people will actually believe it).
Everything is ready but nothing happens and Kylo starts to get angry.
He contacts the control room via Comlink.
“Control Room. This is Kylo Ren; Master or the Knights or Ren, Grandson of Darth Vader, Slayer of the Annoying Smuggler, Sworn Enemy of the Space Bigfoot, Seeker of Maps…” He lists all his titles for nearly an hour before the Control Room officer has a chance to reply.
“Sorry, Sir. We’ve had a problem here.” She say.
“What problem? I want the Resistance dead! Vader! I want them dead! Help me Vader! Vaadeeer!” He yells.
“There is a bug in the system, Sir” she replies.
“A bug! A *beep* bug?! Find a technician then!”
“Or an insecticide” she says.
“An insecticide? Are you making fun me? The Great Great Kylo Ren, Master of the Knights of Ren, Grandson of Darth Vader…” and so on.
The declaration of his titles is interrupted by the ignition sound of a Lightsaber and the Officer can hear over the Comlink Kylo smashing everything around him.
Apparently they have a very big bug in their system hehe :)
I hope you like this photo :)
May the Brick be with You :)
Search and Rescue Technicians: That Others May Live
The Canadian Armed Forces have approximately 140 search and rescue technicians (SAR techs). They are highly trained specialists who provide advanced pre-hospital medical care and rescue for aviators, mariners and others in distress in remote or hard-to-reach areas. These men and women are trained to a primary-care paramedic national standard with additional advanced skills.
SAR techs are land and sea survival experts who specialize in rescue techniques, including Arctic rescue, parachuting, diving, mountain climbing and helicopter rescue.

Technicians at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, moved the largest piece of structural test hardware for America's new deep space rocket, the Space Launch System, from the factory to the dock where it was loaded onto NASA’s barge Pegasus Dec. 14, 2018. The liquid hydrogen tank test article will make its way up the river to NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where dozens of hydraulic cylinders in Test Stand 4693 will push and pull on the giant tank, subjecting it to the same stresses and loads it will endure during liftoff and flight. The test hardware is structurally identical to the flight version of the liquid hydrogen tank that will comprise two-thirds of the core stage and hold 537,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen cooled to minus 423 degrees Fahrenheit.
