Did you know while flying away with the freshly-caught prey, an 🐦Osprey will manipulate the 🐟 fish so that it is parallel to the 🐦bird’s body, and thus aerodynamic? This is the exact technique an ✈️ airplane employs to take off the ground…
Make sure to notice it the next time you take a ✈️ flight…
Don’t forget to share with your friends.

One of the many vertical growing techniques used in the Production Greenhouse in the Land Pavilion in Epcot's Future World. A very interesting ride for persons who garden.
Living with the Land - a gentle 14-minute boat ride through unique indoor plant growing areas. An introduction shows tropic, desert and prairie biomes that existed before humans arrived. The automated narration explains all about the four greenhouses and the aquaculture facility.
The boat glides on into The Land’s experimental growing areas:
*The Tropics Greenhouse - crops such as rice, sugar cane, peanuts, cacao, and bananas are usually grown under the 60-foot dome. These crops can be found in Southeast Asia, Africa, Latin America and the southern United States.
* The Aquacell - crops include fish, alligators, catfish, tilapia, sunshine bass and American eel.
*The Temperate Greenhouse - featuring the concepts and technologies of sustainable agriculture, including intercropping, integrated pest management and specialized irrigation systems that reduce waste and increase crop production.
*The Production Greenhouse - where tons of tomatoes, peppers, lettuce and other vegetables are grown for use in The Land’s Garden Grill Restaurant and other Epcot restaurants. Land scientists utilize growing systems that are kinder to the environment and improve productivity.
*The Creative House , showing imaginative ways to grow crops -- without soil, hanging in the air, even on a space station. USDA scientists currently are working at The Land to develop fruit with a longer shelf life.
I promised this breakdown in November…

I saw this egret fishing technique like a live show in display. It used the left or right foot to stir the water under almost like swirling and then pounce precisely to fetch the fish. It’s like a martial artist applies jabbing technique before delivering the powerful punch.
In the world of photography a lot of techniques that makes me tempted to try it. One of these is levitation technique.
Some days I have prepared the correct settings on camera for this technique. Indeed, these techniques need a partner to serve as a model.
I took this photo on Sunday morning month of May 19, 2013. Around 6:30 am. Locations that I take is a public university in the city of Surabaya in East Java province where I live, because it has enough land and garden clean enough.
There I began to ask my husband to help me make the model because no model of how this technique can be realized outcome. It is really quite easy to demonstrate this technique just Levitation jump and the photographer must be prepared with the focusing speed jumping or using Al-servo.
By using continouos shooting settings I will not miss the slightest movement that enters the camera. So the results taken some angle and the expression of the subject.
There are some very funny angle and it is indeed the result of the movement of the subject is very reasonable. And I could selecting the shooting of some of the results that I deserve to keep.
Minimum of I know and a lot to learn about the science of photography, which many people say "Using a professional camera (DSLR camera) is very difficult!" And to be studied seriously would be very easy and will definitely hooked. Because without trying we will never know and feel. For me failure is success delayed.
Thank you to my lovely flickr friends, the feedback, faves and I really appreciate your time to visit. Have a wonderful day my friends!! ...

A studs-on-top technique for building 45-degree wall corners with no gaps and without using hinges or floating walls. The wall is completely interlocked and solid, with no gaps at the seams or on the top surface.
I turned a corner with this design! Literally. The front is almost complete, ready to add the last roof section then onto the left side.

A quick roof tutorial.
tried a new technique this week, you might have seen it before and wondered how it's done. Looks incredibly advanced on the putside right? Well let me show you one simple trick :D
I recently (i.e. last night) faced an onerous problem: in one of the panels of the Ugly Duckling, I had to fill a one plate thick gap that was not a whole number of studs in length. Up until recently, these brackets where the only way I know of to do that--the corner part is one plate by one plate. However, being giant brackets they are hard to use in small spaces. In my case that wouldn't have worked at all, because the entire thickness of the panel at that point was one stud + one plate. I found a solution with the newish triangle tiles. I was at first annoyed that these tiles have the corners clipped off, but then I realized that it's roughly half a plate that is clipped off. That means that in cases where just the edge is showing, we can chain these things together to fill a gap that is one plate thick by a fractional number of studs. The first frame shows an example, viewed from the side as intended. Note that there are four plates SNOTed in the middle, not the usual five plates that would give you a two stud gap. The second frame shows it from the top. The third frame shows how the length is one plate less than 8 studs. The fourth frame shows the actual panel from the Ugly Duckling where I applied this. I've exploited this in numerous other places. Moving them a plate farther apart creates a 1 plate x 1 plate gap. I used that here on the black pipes in the top right, creating a gap exactly the right size for a 4735 robot arm to pass through, which makes an attachment point for the pipes much less distracting than a bar clip.
Just little techniques I’m WIP’n up for my new diesel - it’s in blue for this example, because I don’t have the parts for dark green :/
I was playing around with the shell extensions, and came upon this. There's enough room to fit various Technic connectors through the gap.

A look at how I assembled the roof of this pagoda. You could potentially strengthen it with another layer of rounded 1x2 plates, but that might just make fixing it more annoying.
I don't often post instructions or techniques but though I would just put this out here. Not that great at editing it all together but some might find it interesting. It's the cockpit area from my most recent starfighter - Toxic V1. I built it from memory in LDD, so hopefully its OK. Probably should have chosen a different angle/more colored details for some of the harder to figure out areas. Feel free to recommend improvements or change any part of this to suit your needs. 74 pieces as is.
Here is a new set of LEGO ideas and techniques, made with LDD
I'm sure you'll find a use to this idea
I tried to make the explanation readable thanks to the colors as if we had a tutorial

Created with the help of my daughter's hands. A number of people have asked how it was done, so:-
Having created a blank file, I then used my daughters hands to set up the shot. Then a small tripod with a lump of Bluetac held each card in the position I wanted. Having isolated each card from it's own photo, all the 21 cards where layered into the main shot. It took a couple of enjoyable hours.
NASA researchers have discovered a perplexing case of a black hole that appears to be “tipped over,” rotating in an unexpected direction relative to the galaxy surrounding it. That galaxy, called NGC 5084, has been known for years, but the sideways secret of its central black hole lay hidden in old data archives. The discovery was made possible by new image analysis techniques developed at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley to take a fresh look at archival data from the agency’s Chandra X-ray Observatory.
Using the new methods, astronomers at Ames unexpectedly found four long plumes of plasma – hot, charged gas – emanating from NGC 5084. One pair of plumes extends above and below the plane of the galaxy. A surprising second pair, forming an “X” shape with the first, lies in the galaxy plane itself. Hot gas plumes are not often spotted in galaxies, and typically only one or two are present.
The method revealing such unexpected characteristics for galaxy NGC 5084 was developed by Ames research scientist Alejandro Serrano Borlaff and colleagues to detect low-brightness X-ray emissions in data from the world’s most powerful X-ray telescope. What they saw in the Chandra data seemed so strange that they immediately looked to confirm it, digging into the data archives of other telescopes and requesting new observations from two powerful ground-based observatories.
This image shows the structure of galaxy NGC 5084, with data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory overlaid on a visible-light image of the galaxy. Chandra’s data, shown in purple, revealed four plumes of hot gas emanating from a supermassive black hole rotating “tipped over” at the galaxy’s core.

This technique could get used very versatile, while most of the parts are pretty common and come in various colors. Just watch out to pick the right arches! It won't work with the old ones, because they couldn't "take" the 1x4 tile. (Comparision on the right side: Above - Old; Underneath - New). To fix the 1x4 tile use the 1x1 plates attached to the bow.
If you want to use medium dark flesh, there are obviously no Bricks with Studs on side. You could still go for the technique, I snotted mdf plates in a more difficult way, go for a second layer behind the visible wall..its a least possible!
This image taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope revisits the Veil Nebula, which was featured in a previous Hubble image release. In this image, new processing techniques have been applied, bringing out fine details of the nebula’s delicate threads and filaments of ionized gas.
To create this colorful image, observations were taken by Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 instrument using five different filters. The new post-processing methods have further enhanced details of emissions from doubly ionized oxygen (seen here in blues), ionized hydrogen, and ionized nitrogen (seen here in reds).
The Veil Nebula lies around 2,100 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus (the Swan), making it a relatively close neighbor in astronomical terms. Only a small portion of the nebula was captured in this image.
The Veil Nebula is the visible portion of the nearby Cygnus Loop, a supernova remnant formed roughly 10,000 years ago by the death of a massive star. That star – which was 20 times the mass of the Sun – lived fast and died young, ending its life in a cataclysmic release of energy. Despite this stellar violence, the shockwaves and debris from the supernova sculpted the Veil Nebula’s delicate tracery of ionized gas – creating a scene of surprising astronomical beauty.
The Veil Nebula is also featured in Hubble’s Caldwell Catalog, a collection of astronomical objects that have been imaged by Hubble and are visible to amateur astronomers in the night sky.

Yes, I decided to take the bricks out for a blast. One of the side effects was this, and I am pretty happy with it. It is a kitchen chair, so that explains the long back in it.
I began experimenting around with lanterns earlier, and Thought I'd share the results. The one in the middle right is pretty basic and common and the one on the right I saw somewhere else (hopefully they don't mind), but I decided to include them anyway. Hope you like them!
Some ideas using the 27928. In combination with Nexo Knight shields and 2x2 Modulex tile (I didn't have a black one).

Well this is a snug fit! But does it really work? I just measured with real pieces and it seems to fit, but what does the math say? Someone care to do the calculations?
I like to play with processing of star trails now and then. Here I used my "Blobulous" technique to make the final position of the stars stand out. I also used the "Smoothee" technique and, of course a poor-man's dark frame subtraction.
Sounds difficult? No? It's all pretty easy and I've got a great description of these techniques all set to publish soon on my BLOG.
The red is garish, I agree. If I decide I want to, I can use the techniques described in "foreground-o-matic" to replace this tree with a different manifestation of the gnarled bristlecone.

Left:
+No stress on the visor
+Mic fits firmly
-Only 1 connection point, thus not holding too well, even though you could use 1 mic on each side, as bike handles
Middle:
+Holds firmly, very usable
-Stresses the visor
Right:
+Perfect fit for the visor, no stress, enough friction
-Stresses the link and/or the wheels (tips firmly inserted into the bottom of the cross)
I think the wheels have potential, I just haven't found a way to link them with the correct gap, in some sort of legit way.
