This cell phone tower stands right accross the road behind our building at work. Needless to say, I have no problem getting a good connection on my cell phone.
I do have access to the terrains of Cern, the most technologically advanced Physics research site in the whole world.
Nevertheless, some good old technology remains in place.
At first, I did not try to use it. But in te end, I thought, why not ? So, I took up the phone and ran the number.
He answered. God himself.
And even delivered instantly what I asked for.
A new pair of socks.
339/365 - 21/52
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do, or say
Is in the pill you took today
In the year 4545
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to do
Nobody's gonna look at you
In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs not nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long black tube
In the year 7510
If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
Guess it's time for the Judgement day
In the year 8510
God's gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing
Now it's been 10,000 years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do or say
Is in the pill you took today ....
Sorry for not being around guys, i have been working two jobs and have missed so much i have to catch up with everything. So apologies for not catching up with your messages and work...
I had today free so felt i should catch up with my 52 weeks from missing last weeks theme of Technology. I had originally decided to do something combining man and machine but after thinking about it thought i would try the matrix style portraits i have always wanted to try!
It took a lot of layers to say the least but i think i got a similar effect to what i wanted, only downside it isn't dark enough between the highlights. Anyhoo, i'm pleased with the results despite that and hopefully will improve with practice. Now i have to rush off again and go prepare for more work, i hope i get a break soon! Catch up soon guys and gals! :)

Say hello to my new camera!
Well, you can't, because it's not in shot, but this is the first Rachel selfie I've done with my new Christmas present. I went up to Sydney yesterday to try it out, and couldn't resist a few shots of myself. It's excellent for selfies, since its built-in wifi alows me to use my phone to control it - set the focus and various other parameters, and then activate the timer.
Anyway, all that explains the rather strange expression; it's the look of a girl trying something out for the first time :)
Past technology From one of the locomotives at the railroad museum near Golden Colorado. A lever that I am assuming controlled steam pressure in the cab of the locomotive, It's handle smoothed through years of handling,
after several failed tries, came up with a suitable cyberheart for Bill; it even has a remote bracelet for greater troubleshooting convenience. [IronMan parts! slightly modded]

Hasselblad 503CW
Makro-Planar 4/120mm
Tactical military transport idea, arguably well before the C-17A that we know and love these days.
McDonnell Douglas YC-15A N15YC (72-1875) now preserved at the Edwards AFB West Gate by the Mojave Desert, California.
Only two of these beasts were produced and sadly the other one N215YC/72-1876 was scrapped at one of the Davis-Monthan yards.

Text entered for the challenge : This one is in memory of, and to pay homage & respect to those who passed away in the collapse of the Minneapolis I-35W Bridge, across the Mississippi. This is a modern bridge finished in 1997. You see into a length of 260m, cast over 7 spans.
Some web snippets on Bridges and Technology; words that go together...
Bridge construction technology - In the 1950s Ulrich Finsterwalder introduced cast-in-place segmental balanced canti-lever prestressed concrete construction , and the structures built with the introduction of this technology : - ) have been labeled as the first generation of modern bridge development; e-BRIDGE Technology ; Bridge Technology; 'Smart-bridge' technology ; Construction Design Technology
[...] nessuno di noi è in grado di fermare lo sviluppo tecnologico: perché è qualcosa che cammina per conto suo, attraverso sterminate ramificazioni che si estendono ormai in tutto il mondo. [...]. Limitarsi a denunciare i rischi dello sviluppo tecnologico non è quindi sufficiente, perché, comunque, la tecnologia continuerà ad avanzare (e la gente a usarla). [...]. Quello che si può fare è prender atto di questa situazione e, per quanto possibile, governarla.

While no technological masterpiece, this old egg beater is an obsolete dinosaur by today's standards - these days cakes are mostly made using electric mixers or food processors. But this old egg beater has served me well, having mixed cakes week in, week out when my family was growing up.
I could have taken a shot of the egg beater doing nothing, but thought I should whip up a 'throw it all in together and mix' type cake. The recipe called for the eggs to be beaten with some caster sugar till thick and creamy and then add the rest of the ingredients and combine. Now it's cooked, I suppose I'm going to have to eat it so my efforts aren't wasted.
