Formula One Testing, Day 2, Thursday 27th February 2020. Barcelona, Spain.
Taken with SX-70, wheel darkened three marks. Photo was taken on an overcast day in the AM. This photo was my third try at getting the frog to stand out and not be overcome with the pink tint that is predominant in the photo. I moved the frog about 4 feet from the azaleas to accomplish this.
After a friend insisted my testing was flawed, I checked the Chrome memory usage with similar (though not exact) same tabs:
18 tabs running (counting the about memory tab) including streaming video and audio content. Many pages are average, low image types but there is a variety.
Task Manager shows 19 instances of chrome, running 286mb and hogging my machine.
About:memory shows it using 226MB private memory with a total at 281MB. Virtual memory is listed at 309MB private and only 55MB mapped
That said... yes they opened fast, but then I was experiencing lag.
→→ Similarly, opening the same tabs in Firefox3 uses 128mb according to Task Manager, though with the mem leak issue I'm sure that'd just increase as It stays open or tabs are opened/closed. They opened a bit slower but I didn't have lag after the same point as I did with Chrome.
Maybe Chrome is the wave of the future.... for dual core machines? Vista, no XP?
→→ IE8 beta - 9 tabs, mainly microsoft's own sites and streaming services, opens 9 instances in TM. The MB count is much higher - 30mb for the smallest and 65 for the highest with a total of around 392mb! AND it crashed twice to pull them up.
Test roll 1 from the Canon EOS 3. There's a bit of a learning curve, but all in all, I'm happy with the purchase. My portraits from this roll turned out the best.
There does seem to be a tendency to overexpose, which I'll need to work on.

Today I finally got around to sewing the apron that has been sitting beside my sewing machine in pieces for the past month. I wanted to make a "test" version before making one with fabrics that are a bit more precious. I think the neck is a bit too wide for my body, so I'm going to alter it slightly for the next version.
Pattern is from Lotta Jansdotter's "Simple Sewing".

Formula One Testing, Day One, Tuesday 28th January 2014. Jerez, Spain.
This was supposed to be a test shot.
Here is the story. So my buddy Kyle called me a few min ago and asked if he could borrow my Mamiya medium format camera. I told him he could and he came over right away. Since I had a few frames in a roll left to shoot I was super excited for an opportunity to shoot some more film. (It's just so much easier to grab the digital.) Anyway, we grabbed my strobes and headed back to the ally way since I think it produces some pretty kick ass back lighting as the sun goes down.
We meticulously set everything up. I balanced the strobe and the ambient with my light meter and finally decided to pop off a digital just to be safe. Then I started firing away. I took a couple shots, bracketed a few and then was done with the roll. As I reached down to put everything back in the bag I realized I had changed my shutter speed earlier to take a natural light photo before we started setting up the strobes. Unfortunately all the photos we took will not turn out due to the fact that we went WAY past the sync speed.
Either way, I still have the one photo I took as a test. Here it is.
Strobist info: SB800 with shoot through umbrella camera right.
Elos Magnesium Test Kit
Just messing around, the light from the left looked perfect in my living room, so I popped a shot off ;) My first product shot?
Basically it's an ELOS Magnesium Test Kit (reef tank test kit) on top of a stack of Filter socks.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc., recently performed its snubber cycle test to prove the durability of a MSA 35 mechanical snubber manufactured for an engineering and construction company at Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
The cyclic test, performed using PT&P’s in-house, horizontal, hydraulic press, is designed to test snubbers at their two modes of operation. At high rates of loading, especially impact, the snubber is expected to provide very high resistance to movement. At low speeds snubbers are to provide very low resistance to movement. Testing a snubber at a low speed displays the normal wear and tear over an extended period of time.
In this case, a cyclic test was performed, in which the MSA 35 Mechanical Snubber with a load rating of 50,000 pounds and design travel of 6 inches was measured at a slow speed response. The low speed force remained at a fairly constant 500 pounds for the 50 hours and 5000 cycles it sustained. This value meets the common criteria that the drag force should be 2% or less than the rated load.
In addition to the snubber cycle drag test, Piping Technology & Products, Inc. has administered other tests such as the burst test for expansion joints. The tests executed by PT&P allow companies to attain the most precise and reliable data available to them. Using this to their advantage, customers will be able to compare data about the recently ordered products, to their individual standards of dependability and durability.
Piping Technology & Products, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries are recognized leaders in manufacturing pipe hangers/pipe supports (variables, constants, cryogenic supports cold shoes, hot shoes, mechanical/hydraulic snubbers, slide bearing plates), expansion joints/compensators (metallic, fabric, rubber, slip-type) and ASME Code Fabrication. PT&P has engineering drawing production stress analysis and full in-house finite element analysis that are used to prove designs. The design software is developed in-house and the calculations contrived are further checked using hand calculations.
