This is on the north side of the channel from Portland Head Light.
A low tide... very low.
The pier to the lighthouse shows the tidal range. The rocks in front of the lighthouse are covered at high tide.
I sanded and painted the rod, attached arms, and spring while it was apart. The little set screw holds the spring in; remove it and slide the spring sideways to release tension on it. Do this with the window closed, and be careful around the glass.
This bus is one of 20 2023 IC CE's currently in the fleet. This bus replaced a 1999 AmTran Conventional once owned by the district.
This is all that remains of the Chicago Great Western in Dubuque, Iowa in 1980. CNW 1638 heads to tie down for the day at Fair Ground as is passes under the E 32nd St. bridge.
This is white alpaca that has had one wash ( I am guessing). It still has quite a bit of dirt and vm ( vegetable matter) in it. Thankfully it does not smell---I was scared to open the plastic bag it arrived in *____*

This is a boxer that came in this morning. He's a powerful boy, all sinewy and muscled up. Unfortunately, he has a terrible underbite, which has resulted in him losing his front lower teeth. He was a sweet boy, though, well-behaved, and only showed his boxer-ness while I was brushing him out, with his butt wiggling (his tail was just a stump) 90-outta-nothin the whole time.
This sculpture named Big Head, is a translation of the Gaelic Ceann Mór, a variation of the town, Canmore. Located on 8th Street, at the Northeast side of the bridge over Policeman's Creek.

This is a day-time view of a scene I first photographed at night. Both images of this Maricopa scene were captured while I sat on my recumbent trike.
This small anthology of Persian poetry consisting of poems by such authors as Jāmī, Azārī, Fayz̤ī, Navāʾī, and Saʿdī was put together by an anonymous scribe in 1105 AH / 1693 CE. Illustrated with six miniatures, the margins of this manuscript are embellished with stenciled designs of angels, men and animals. The illumination depicts a woman holding a vase of flowers.

After showing up, the subject became angry, I guess I picked the wrong form this time. So I revealed my true self. The subject fell silent. I took his hands from my neck, stepped back, and said softly, "It's this way"

-_-tirrrrrrrrred. call me high maitenance, but i just can't sleep when other people breath too loudly or snore:|
i was tagged again, so let's get down to it:
1. i don't like to spend money. period. although i seem to not have nearly as much guilt when i buy food...that comes quite easily.
2. yes, i can speak spanish, but somewhat poorly...i always get lost when it comes to subjunctive tenses...pluperfect? whoever came up with that?
3. i really like ellipses... ... ... ... they give that pause that lends the reader to feel as though the writer is actually speaking; they insinuate a conversational tone.
4. i'm up to 8 books that i need to read, two of them for summer ap english homework (dorian gray, poisonwood bible). others include false memory-dean koontz; will grayson, will grayson-john green/david levithan; and painfully shy: how to overcome social anxiety and reclaim your life-barbara&greg markway.
5. i have social anxiety disorder.
6. i love the smell of sunscreen.
7. when i go away on a trip of any sort by my lonesome, i always cry about missing my dog...not my parents...(sorry mom&dad...)
8. ...
9. i'm somewhat of a hoarder; i can't throw my garbage bags away because i'm always afraid i'll need some paper or another.
10. i was in a dance recital yesterday...my 12th.
ummm i'll tag people in a bit...
me sleeps now.
This was taken at my grandmother's childhood home on Wheaton Street, Savannah. The mother and child are related to her somehow but I don't know who they are.

XH - Talon - 8th Gen VTOL Hypersonic UCAV (IT1 This is not a graphics design)
2022 - New level of technology developed, XH Talon 8th VTOL Hypersonic UCAV
49' Length, 25' Span, Wings Folded: 16' Span
Link to Engines/Propulsion www.ioaircraft.com/hypersonic/utbcc.php
Extreme capabilities, unseen by the humans including black programs. H2 fueled (kero based scramjet engines are not able to operate long above M6) with a kero reserve for ferry flights, subsonic, etc. It can adapt in flight from 100% kero through 100% H2 making it an advanced hybrid.
Summary technologies of the below (real, not academics) 49' length, less then 6' height, 25' span
-6000+F thermal resistance (3rd gen, normalizing high hypersonic flight and orbital re-entry making ablatives and ceramics obsolete entirely)
-graphene airframe (33X tensile strength of titanium but 1/100th the weight of styrofoam)
-VTOL (advanced vtol capabilities, which every aspect is composites)
-u-tbcc propulsion (thru m15 in atmosphere, unified turbine based combined cycle dual mode ramjet/scramjet)
-graphene based super conducting motors for the lift fans (no antiquated shaft driven lift fans)
-H2 Compressed, 1,600 gallons 16,000 PSI (already flown, and patented, publicly, 2nd gen is 16,000 PSI)
-400 gallon kero reserve (hybrid capable)
-Internal bay 154" length to accommodate 1 2,000 JDAM or 3 500 LBS and anything else in between
-3,000+NM RANGE from subsonic through hypersonic, ie Mach 9-14. Super Cruise is an estimated Mach 3. Is able to operate in ramjet mode as well, not just scramjet mode.
-The payload bay can also house a range extender tank conforming internally adding an additional 1,000+ nm range under power for longer range flights used for ferrying and also during intelligence gathering operations, mainly over russia and china.
-Folding wings (16' span folded) for naval operations + Internal tail hook
-Overall weight, at max payload of 3,000 LBS, Kero, and H2, apx 12,300 LBS (Less then the empty weight of an F-35. This is because H2 but also graphene airframe, and graphene/carbide hybrid surfacing)
-USAF version, just remove the lift fans and add more fuel capacity, give an additional 1,000+nm range internally

This image has been digitised from Queensland State Archives, Series ID S2149: Railway Glass Plate Negatives - Queensland Rail Heritage Collection. It is one of the images depicting the many stations, bridges and tracks that people and goods travelled from, on and through all over the Queensland Rail network.
I kid you not, this guy wrote his name on my model release as "Viagra without prescription" and that he was friends with Frank Lautenberg, a politician from New Jersey. Why he picked Lautenberg, not a famous politician, and not even one from New York, I don't know.
Also, he said he was former "FBI Secret Service."
This store opened in March 1993 as a Finast supermarket. This store was re-branded as Tops around 2000. This store was closed in December 2006 when the Tops chain pulled out of Ohio.
Giant Eagle purchased this store and planned to relocate from Southgate USA into this shopping center in 2007. However, Giant Eagle later chose to remain at the Southgate location after plans were released for a Walmart Supercenter in the same shopping center. The Target in this center also closed leaving this side of Meadowbrook Market Square dead.
This was a relatively quick cake to put together. The polka dots are Necco Wafers. (Yes, I fixed that wonky pink Necco Wafer on the top before delivery.) Thanks for looking!
This is outside a parking garage and it is hard to get the right angle on it while also avoiding cars coming and going!
This is not one of my own, but I print I picked up last week, there are about 40 which by the writing on the back were all taken by the same photographer. If you own the copyright to this please let me know and I will remove the image if you wish.

This species is a regular visitor to our feeders. I believe it to be the female of a pair that was hatched on our property. Its nest mate was male, but I haven't seen it around. Even the newly hatched Flicker males have an obvious red malar stripe (that this gal lacks... hers is brown).

This small breviary, having more that five hundred folio, is extraordinary for its length, considering it is the summer portion of a two-volume breviary for the use of Liège. The manuscript was completed for ecclesiastical use at Cathedral of Notre-Dame and St. Lambert in Liège in 1420 circa. The attribution is evidenced for instance by the Petitions to the congregation of this Cathedral (fols. 114v-117v), as well as the armorial shield of the family of Surlet de Chokier of Liège represented at the opening of the Psalms. The manuscript has a modest, but interesting, decoration with historiated and non figural initials that mark the liturgical texts. The folios opening the major divisions of the texts, display a border decoration with natural motifs and angels playing instruments. The most notable pictorial effect is probably found in the initials inhabited by transparent figures on rich blue ground. The technique is visible, for instance, on fol. 156r with the gold monstrance hold by the translucent angels for the feast of the Corpus Christi.
Seventeenth-century Flemish stiff-board vellum; sides bent to form 8 mm flap at fore-edge; rebacked; resewn on four double cords; gilt fillet frame, corner fleurons, centered oval formed of gilt laurel; gilt armorial shield inside oval surmounted by crest with horned man, flanked by monogram R C; modern endbands; brown leather fore-edge tabs.

All three photos posted this morning were taken yesterday, 25 June 2016, when I drove SW of the city to possibly meet friends. No one was sure how bad the weather was going to be, as the forecast was for rain and thunderstorms. It had rained overnight, so everywhere was soaking wet. Normally, on a day like that, I stay home, but I'm really glad I did go, especially as I was able to find a Bobolink again. Or, perhaps I should say it found me. Three times now, when I have been photographing a particular pair of Mountain Bluebirds, I have heard a certain call, turned around, and there was a Bobolink sitting on a fence post across the road. It just kept up this call until I stopped what I was doing, crossed the road, and started taking photos of him, as if to say: "Hey, take my photo, too!"
I didn't think any friends were going to turn up, as I hadn't seen anything that looked like a small convoy of cars. Then suddenly, one single car came around a distant corner and stopped. Three people got out - Andrew, Tony and Howard. Three people who are excellent birders and who didn't let the weather keep them from doing what they love.
I followed them slowly as far as Brown-Lowery Provincial Park, where the day's walk was supposed to take part, stopping to look at various birds along the way, Once there, we parted ways, as I didn't want hours of walking in mud and dripping trees. Instead, I wandered for a few minutes near the parking lot, where I took my next two photos and then I returned to the Bluebirds, where the Bobolink reappeared and repeated his behavior, giving me another chance for photos.
And now I have to dash, as I overslept almost an hour, and I have to pick up a friend and then do a long drive NW of the city, where we will be meeting others for a walk, followed by a BBQ. Ths annual event is always very enjoyable - just hope the forecast rain and thunderstorms stay away! Will have to finish off my tags this evening. Gotta run!
"Perched on a grass stem or displaying in flight over a field, breeding male Bobolinks are striking. No other North American bird has a white back and black underparts (some have described this look as wearing a tuxedo backwards). Added to this are the male’s rich, straw-colored patch on the head and his bubbling, virtuosic song. As summer ends he molts into a buff and brown female-like plumage. Though they’re still fairly common in grasslands, Bobolink numbers are declining." From AllAboutBirds.
www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Bobolink/id
"The Bobolink inhabits Canada's grassland and agricultural areas from the interior of British Columbia to the east coast. Relative to 1970 levels, this species has shown a large decrease across most of its range, with the exception of the Prairie Potholes Bird Conservation Region where populations have changed little. The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada assessed the Bobolink as Threatened in 2010 (COSEWIC 2010d). This species has been identified as a priority for conservation and/or stewardship in one or more Bird Conservation Region Strategies in Canada."
This was going to be the next family car. Ordered and everything.
Big, spacious, comfortable, quiet, and, as a diesel, very efficient.
Something else came up, and I have chosen a different car.
But you will just have to wait and see......
This Biograph Records LP features "The Voice of Death" from 1940 starring Bret Morrison and Marjorie Anderson on Side Two.
This young farmer actually thought this was an appropriate pose when I asked him if I could take his picture. After taking the shot to stroke his ego, I got him to put away the weapon and pose for a more conventional portrait.
This shot was the best of the series however.....
Good thing we went to the Buff Bay Valley last Sunday as I understand that the rains from the current weather system has caused landslides blocking the road in several places.
