The Tank Story
The Sherman DD Duplex Drive Tank
Tank Chats #41 www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8DeIKRmngU
The idea for the DD came from a Hungarian engineer, Nicholas Straussler.
Sherman DD Duplex Drive Swimming Tank used on D-Day June 6th 1944. British, Canadian and American regiments successfully used DDS to land on the Normandy beaches. However, 27 out of 29 DDS of the 741st US Tank Battalion were lost after being swamped by high waves. The British on Sword Beach fared better six out of forty were lost, two of them as a result of being rammed by landing craft out of control.

Kinetic photography (kinetic meaning “caused by motion” is an experimental photographic technique in which the photographer uses movement resulting from physics to create an image. This typically involves the artist not directly holding the camera, but allowing the camera to react to forces applied to it in order to make a photograph. This can include, but is not limited to; holding and shaking the wrist strap of the camera while taking a picture, dropping the camera off of objects while taking a picture, throwing or spinning the camera up in the air while taking a picture (called a camera toss), or rigorously moving the camera while taking a picture, etc. As the photographer has surrendered control over the camera to physical forces, this technique tends to produce abstract, random or blurred-motion photographs.

At least someone in the house thinks that dishbrushes are cool things.

Yes, I actually scored a copy of the extremely scarce Faith Tones LP from 1964! I was walking the dog a couple weeks ago and ran into my pal Jeff B., who whipped the record out of his satchel and gave it to me on the spot because he knows I collect such things-- He had just purchased it for a buck at the thrift store-- Praise the Lord! (This record sold recently on eBay for $1000.00!)
Démonstration technologique avec casque de réalité virtuelle et joystick aux côtés de Megan. 2e session de cette expérience (appelée Pilote, comment aurais-je pu refuser d’y participer 😊) cette semaine. L’intérêt de la réalité virtuelle dans l’espace, c’est de bloquer des sens qui pourraient nous perturber (et normalement pas de mal des transports qu’on peut avoir sur Terre avec un casque… parce qu’ici le conflit sensoriel est permanent, estomacs sensibles s’abstenir 😬). Ici l’objectif c’est de simuler des opérations de robotique à distance, pour qu’on mette au point les systèmes les plus pertinents possibles dont on aura besoin pour explorer la 🌑 ou Mars…
A session of the experiment Pilote with Megan, where we use a Virtual Reality headset to operate a robotic arm or fly spacecraft (simulated for the moment, this is a technology demonstration). VR headsets are an interesting addition to spaceflight as they can be used for experiments to block out other senses or as in this case to enhance our awareness and allow us to use our heads instead of hands to move the camera, freeing up our hands for actually moving the robotic arm. Many of the problems with VR on Earth are not a factor in space, we don't get motion sickness and as long as we float in the virtual world, the immersion is more believable!

We are really trying to do our part to reduce plastic use. I got these bags for the grocery store and Anna bought some bags for lunches so we can phase out our Ziploc use.

I chose this title because the photo was supposed to feature another element, however, I scrapped that idea because it look terrible; so, the the viewer will have to use their imagination as to what she’s seeing.
Every once in a while the kings, generals and admirals gather at Queen Esmeralda´s court to do strategies and coordinate their defense and troop movements, The Wargame night was word that Henry first used when he was king that stuck and is still used by the queen...
- (Esmeralda) Ok, so now this is the troops of our factions in Günters army, here is the front
- (Albert) Aber mein Essy, why don´t my troops get a männer-token? *hiccups!*
- (Esmeralda) But my dear Prince and King each of these figurines represent 1000 men, your troops are less than 10, so please Imagine your troops in your head!
- (Albert) Aber my Franconian troops are very potent one of my men is worth 10 of your troops!
- (Esmeralda) so even if that was true, that would still only be a hundred troops, Oh Albert my dear, I think the Wine delivery-chart just arrived, would you be so nice and organize the barrels movement to the wine-cellar?
- (Albert) Jawohl Mein Köningin, I am already on My way!!!
Albert stagger off in haste!
- (Esmeralda) Oh great now there will be less obstructions, You Know guys, I had to have him here since he is actually the leader of an army and Kingdom in the alliance now, even though it is a minute such... So General Potter could carry on with your suggested plan now!
- (Potter) Sure Madame! where was I? Oh, yeah the valley, yes, the valley and the pass over here, I think we should make a trust through this valley is is soft and if we erect a tower here and then Repeatedly push on this line, I think we will be able to push deep inside and then release our troops into the bushy forest and then strangle her quick and and easy, ehm, I mean strangle the western barbarian section...
- (Esmeralda) Oh, Dear general,
Perhaps you recent divorce and your frustration is blurring your sharp strategic mind, perhaps you should take a months payed leave and either mend your broken marriage or meet someone new, Colonel Weener will temporarily replace you...
- (potter) Yes, My queen My hear is aching, I cannot focus on killing people when my heart is bleeding... I think I will help Albert unload the barrels!

Stone Mill across the street in 1763 (now known as the Hunterdon Art Museum)
Ralph Hunt built the earliest section of this Mill to process wool sometime around 1810. His wool business failed, however, thanks to a permanent downturn in the market for domestic cloth. By 1820 Ralph confessed to the Census that “the establishment has been doing very little for two or three years past. The demand for sale of the cloths and sattinets are very dull…a few of the farmers get their wool manufactured, but from the low prices of foreign cloths.” Things did not improve and Ralph lost all of the family’s property, more than 400 acres and mills on both sides of the river. He defaulted on his mortgage, and the Taylor family took ownership.
The Red Mill in Operation: 1810 - 1928
From 1828 to 1834 John Bray and John B. Taylor took over running the Woolen Mill. The Taylors, now the dominant merchant family, changed the name of the town from Hunt’s Mills to Clinton, after the popular New York governor DeWitt Clinton. Bray and Taylor continued in the woolen business but they also diversified by grinding feed, flour and stone plaister, as well as by selling chestnut wood for rails. They even opened a dry goods establishment which carried everything from china to sheet iron. But Bray and Taylor also failed in their business, selling it for three quarters of its purchase price.
John W. Snyder, the new owner, refitted the Mill for grist and ceased wool production. But he too quickly fell into debt, and lost the property in 1842. After a swift series of owners, the Easton Bank split the site into a mill and a quarry. In 1847 the Mill was sold to John F. Stiger and John A. Young, who used it to grind flour and grist. In 1868 Young sold his part of the business to his partner, John Stiger, who continued to operate it as a grist mill.
In 1871 Stiger sold the mill and it again changed hands several times before it was purchased by Philip Gulick in 1873. Gulick ground grist on the third and fourth floors of the mill and produced peach baskets in the first level. In 1892 Gulick set up The Clinton Illuminating and Water Co. on the second floor of the mill. It provided electricity for Clinton’s street lamps. Gulick died in 1901 and his widow rented the Mill to Elmer and Chester Tomson and in 1905 they purchased it outright.
Chester changed the mill’s operation to grist to graphite and for a short time the mill became known as the “Black Mill.” The greasy black dust was wildly unpopular in town, and after a public outcry he turned to grinding talc and the Mill was soon dubbed the “White Mill.”
