Add the feet. A little Translucent Liquid Sculpey on each one will make sure they stay attached after they're baked.
Solar Storms hit Jupiter
Solar storms are triggering X-ray auroras on Jupiter that are about eight times brighter than normal over a large area of the planet and hundreds of times more energetic than Earth’s "northern lights," according to a new study using data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. This result is the first time that Jupiter's auroras have been studied in X-ray light when a giant solar storm arrived at the planet.
The Sun constantly ejects streams of particles into space in the solar wind. Sometimes, giant storms, known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs), erupt and the winds become much stronger. These events compress Jupiter's magnetosphere, the region of space controlled by Jupiter's magnetic field, shifting its boundary with the solar wind inward by more than a million miles.
This new study found that the interaction at the boundary triggers the X-rays in Jupiter's auroras, which cover an area bigger than the surface of the Earth.
These composite images show Jupiter and its aurora during and after a CME's arrival at Jupiter in October 2011. In these images, X-ray data from Chandra (purple) have been overlaid on an optical image from the Hubble Space Telescope.
The left-hand panel reveals the X-ray activity when the CME reached Jupiter, and the right-hand side is the view two days later after the CME subsided. The impact of the CME on Jupiter's aurora was tracked by monitoring the X-rays emitted during two 11-hour observations.
The scientists used that data to pinpoint the source of the X-ray activity and identify areas to investigate further at different time points. They plan to find out how the X-rays form by collecting data on Jupiter's magnetic field, magnetosphere and aurora using Chandra and ESA’s XMM-Newton.
A paper describing these results appeared in the March 22, 2016 issue of the Journal of Geophysical Research. The authors on the paper are William Dunn (UCL), Graziella Branduardi-Raymont (UCL), Ronald Elsner (NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center), Marissa Vogt (Boston University), Laurent Lamy (University of Paris Diderot), Peter Ford (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Andrew Coates (UCL), Randall Gladstone (Southwest Research Institute), Caitriona Jackman (University of Southampton), Jonathan Nichols (University of Leicester), Jonathan Rae (UCL), Ali Varsani (UCL), Tomoki Kimura (JAXA), Kenneth Hansen (University of Michigan), and Jamie Jasinski (UCL).

There is not "all original" by any stretch of the imagination, but is 100% Government Issue! What a great program to distribute history to the people.

I became involved with this project hoping to uncover a fresh perspective on the gun debate. My process included extensive research, one-on-one interviews (online and offline), a panel discussion and a visit to the local gun range to experience guns firsthand. See more at: www.victor-ramos.com
The second of six members of the "New Horizon" class of vehicle transporters for Hoegh finally arrives into Southampton in daylight - albeit somewhat misty and cloudy.
These six (Hoegh Target/Trigger/Tracer/Trapper - the other two are under construction and yet to be named) are all due in service by Q4 this year.

03 June 2016
When I was a teenager I owned a horse named Trigger. He was half Morgan and half Quarterhorse and looked a lot like this fellow. I gave him to my sister who took him to her place in the country and I never got to see him after that. Maybe I'll see him again in 'Horse Heaven', but I hope he'll forgive me if it takes a while before I get there.

About 50 people gathered outside the State Capitol on Thursday afternoon to protest against recently announced trigger cuts.
Gov. Jerry Brown's administration announced the $1 billion in midyear budget reductions on Tuesday, after determining that state budget revenues are about $2.2 billion short of expectations.
The demonstrators focused on the cuts to health and social service programs, which they said would include a $100 million loss for in-home supportive services, another $100 loss for developmental disability services, $23 million for subsidized child care and $8.6 million for the subsidized health care program known as Medi-Cal.
The demonstrators sang Christmas Carols, such as "Santa Claus is Coming' to Town," with modified lyrics: "You better not cut; You better not bow; You can raise revenues; We're telling you how; Revenues are needed this year!”
"It's obvious what the people of California want: two-thirds of them don't want these cuts, and the vast majority wants to tax the wealthiest and the corporations," said LaTanya Wolf of the Alameda County Food Bank in a news release.
Among the protester, Lauren Freed said she was a mother of three children and that she works part-time while studying to earn a Master's degree in counseling. She said she currently receives state subsidized child care.
"I probably will be one of the parents who will be cut," said Freed, who added that without subsidized child care she might have to drop out of college.
"It's a really hard thing to give up your dreams that something you've working hard for so long," said Freed.
Some of the protesters said it was too late to stop the trigger cuts from taking place and that they would now focus on preventing future cuts in next year's budget.
"I believe, for the midyear cuts, it is a fait accomplish," said Michael Roth, a volunteer for the Alameda County food bank.
Others, including advocates of in-home supportive services, have filed a lawsuit to block the triggers cuts from taking place. A federal judge in Oakland has granted a temporary restraining order and scheduled a hearing on the issue for Jan. 19.
"I think what we're realizing is that there are lot of different ways we can fight," said Jessica Lehman of Community Resources for Independent Living. "I mean we have the Americans with Disabilities Act, and we have the Supreme Court Olmstead decision that says people with disabilities have a right to live in our own homes."
This stuff has all been in storage for nearly three years. I haven't really been able to make any noise, but right now I can get a little loud for a few days so I couldn't resist. So nice to hear it all come to life again.
The Ibanez UE-405 has long been a favorite of mine.
The way I understand it, and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I understand it those circuits are all pedal effects circuits from the same 9-series line of effects that the Tube Screamer TS-9 came from (except for the parametric EQ circuit, which is unique to this box AFAIK). The big difference here is that they're all AC-powered and in a rack unit. So yeah, AFAIK that's the AD-9 analog delay, the CS-9 stereo chorus and the CP-9 compressor/limiter. The "Insta-Patch Position" knobs let you arrange what order they're in.
What I do know with some degree of certainty is that they've always sounded great.
Decided to buy 3 of these Phottix triggers. I got 3 triggers for the price of one Pocket Wizard trigger!

Heritage Days 19 September 2021 - KANAL-Centre Pompidou
After the crisis triggered by the 1929 Wall Street Crash, there was a marked revival in the popularity of cars, prompting the major carmakers to move en masse to the centre of Brussels. Thus, Citroen decided to relocate from Saint-Gilles/Sint-Gillis to a much busier site in 1934. For its chosen location in Place de l'Yser/IJzerplein, it opted for an imposing design in a functionalist style, produced by architects Alexis Dumont and Marcel Van Goethem, based on plans drawn up by Andre Citroen. Featuring an aerodynamic roof, the metal-framed modernist building has a surface area of around 40,000 m2, which is bathed in light thanks to its huge glazed facades. Five extra levels subdividing the showroom were added in 1959. Originally, the complex was home to the administrative staff, a large showroom, repair shops, warehouses for spare parts and a service station (on the Quai de Willebroeck/Willebroekkaai side).
The gem that is the Citroen garage was bought in 2015 by the Brussels-Capital Region, which tasked its Urban Development Corporation (SAU-MSI) with developing an international cultural hub. The Kanal Foundation was responsible for implementing the project, in cooperation with the International Centre for the City, Architecture and Landscape (CIVA) and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The complex, which opened in 2018, is now undergoing a complete makeover, due for completion in 2024. KANAL envisages becoming a major multidisciplinary cultural institution and a centre of exchange open to all, featuring not only a museum of modern and contemporary art and an architecture museum (hence CIVA's involvement), exhibitions and restaurants, but also many multifunctional public spaces - in short, a vibrant place to meet and interact, at the heart of a neighbourhood on the move!

Our 6 month old blue heeler puppy, Trigger, has to always be in the water. My boyfriends mom's most prize possession is her goldfish pond... She gets so mad when Trigger takes a dip in it to cool off. She is so worried he is going to hurt her goldfish. We have tried EVERYTHING to keep him out.. and he knows he isn't supposed to be in there. So this is our criminal pup swimming with the goldfish with his " i didn't do it " look!
Damaged Case and/or device: No goldfish have been damaged.. yet! but we will never get tired of the endless amounts of " I didn't do it looks" or chasing trigger out of the goldfish pond!
I sent a second picture of Trigger picking up some bad habbits of his owner ( Drew Black). once again here is his "I didn't do it mom!" look :) hope everyone enjoys our CRIMINAL PUPPY!!

The Gadget Infinity PT-04 radio flash trigger transmitter aerial extension is here being photographed in close up. A piece of A4 paper with the corners trimmed has been rubber banded to the flash to act as a bounce card to give a soft overhead diffuse illumination to the electronic insides of the transmitter. The resulting image can be seen here.
The tripod is not necessary for time because the flash is short, but is necessary to hold precise focus given the very limited depth of focus available in macro shots like this. Not to mention the rather unwieldy weight of camera, flash, and bracketry :-)
The camera was set to f16 for maximum depth of field.
A photograph of the same strobist set up from the side can be seen here.
