Another view of workers using their strength to move engine blocks in Rivera's depiction of the Ford Motor Company Rouge plant.
Before painting the "Detroit Industry" frescoes, Rivera spent months observing work at the plant with a photographer in tow. The murals are universally lauded for capturing the rhythms and motion of work at a car factory.

Picture Styles are settings that you can upload into your EOS Canon cameras in order to set your preferred colorimetry.
It is recommended to use the right picture style when shooting video or when shooting JPG's.
Ive Lotus Film Picture Style is so amazing that you can shoot and post without color correcting the video/phtos.

Using leftover wood block samples from my office and custom hairpin legs from etsy i made these two small tables which together are my new coffee table.
Playing with power tools is fun, but even simple projects have learning curves I have realized. attaching the legs was a bit tricky because of the angle of the legs and the placement of the holes on the attachment plates.
Bonus Fun fact: This project actually took ages. Lots of time between many many coats of varathane, and sanding, and then waiting for the legs to arrive. But worth it. I love my tables!

Used to sit here for a quite a while then it suddenly vanished. Last time and first time I saw a Peugeot was a 505 sedan. But back then, I didn't have a camera.
Using a 30 second shutter speed and light by the full moon allowed for me to create this very different image, you can even see some stars. Annoyingly because it was 'dark' i didn't notice the bag of dog crap at the foot of the steps.

Used to have to hike to get to the top of Whistler Mountain...this was about the last time it happened - May of 1986 ... the boot pack up little whistler
This was a story I wrote years ago...
There's a long traverse up in the Whistler alpine area this year that leads from the top of the Saddle to Shale Slope. Shale Slope has lots of tracks on it but the big bumps that in recent years usually cover the run have yet to form. Skiers are getting up to the alpine on the Harmony Chair because the Peak Chair hasn't yet opened for the season. It's amazing what the lack of the Peak Chair does to the skiability of the alpine.
With only the Harmony lift open it's a fairly long traverse to Shale. Skiers actually have to work a little to get there and it's obvious that only a few skiers are willing to put in the work.
Once upon a time there was no Harmony Chair and no Peak Chair and the alpine area had a totally different character. Whistler Bowl, Glacier Bowl, Shale Slope, and West Bowl were not bump runs. On the right days they were back-country runs where skiers could convince themselves, with only a little effort, that they were up on an unserviced mountain, far away from civilization.
The T-bars have been around since Whistler opened. The early developers of the mountain rightly realized that access to the alpine was something that made Whistler special and the T-bars allowed access to that area. Skiers could ride to the top of the T's and then either ski down right beside them or, if the sign line was open, venture further. It was called the sign line because the sign said, "Attention. If you proceed beyond this point you leave the Whistler Mountain patrolled area. Steep slopes, hazardous terrain and uncontrolled avalanche danger. When skiing above this point you do so at your own risk." The sign meant what it said.
There was a very well-used low traverse that cut across Glacier Bowl and Whistler Bowl and finally cut across Shale Slope about three-quarters of the way up that run. It was often a pretty challenging traverse because there were lots of rollers and skiers had to commit to pretty high speeds along the route in order to stay high. It usually got pretty interesting as it snaked around the corner underneath Don't Miss.
If there were no slower skiers in front (because the traverse was almost always only wide enough for one skier at a time) and the skier was prepared to let the skis run it would take a little less than ten minutes to get to Shale Slope.
There was a high traverse as well and it, obviously, started and stayed higher than the lower traverse. It allowed for longer runs down Glacier and Whistler Bowl and required more effort, but that extra effort was usually rewarded by more untracked and more turns.
Skiers who really wanted the alpine experience got off the T-bar, traversed to the sign line, took off their skis, and hiked, yes, hiked, up Little Whistler. Hiking up Little Whistler took thirty to forty minutes. Unless the sign line had just opened there was usually a well-defined staircase cut into the snow made by previous skiers but it was still a grunt. Most who hiked up stopped for a few minutes to sit on the rocks at the top of Little Whistler, catch their breath, and socialize.
The Roundhouse used to seem a long way away from up there. As soon as hikers put on their skis and turned the corner at the top of Little Whistler to start the relatively flat traverse along the top of the mountain they felt like they were really in the mountains, away from the ski area, on their own. There were no buildings and no lifts to be seen. There was no ski area noise. There were no snivel stations. It was glorious
Skiers could choose to traverse along and drop into Glacier Bowl from the top, or continue along and drop into Whistler Bowl, or ski Burnt Stew (which had a hellishly long exit before the mountain cleared the traverse and began grooming it), or continue to West Bowl. Really adventurous types might head for Piccolo, Flute, or Oboe.
Because it required work to get there not a lot of people made the effort which meant that those who did were rewarded by lots of uncut powder lines. Depending on the day it could take four or five hours before all the obvious lines were skied and less popular, hidden lines could be found for days.
One of the best days in Whistler's alpine was the staff party the spring before the Peak Chair went in. The mountain closed, as it often does, in a blizzard. It snowed all the next day too but then the day after that, the day of the staff party, the weather cleared. It was a beautiful day. The party was held at Pika's and the T-bars were open.
The entire alpine was blanked by twenty-five centimeters of light, dry, uncut powder. A consensus decision was made that there would be no low traverse cut that day. When the sign line dropped, to the chant of "No low, no low, no low!" staff started cutting the high traverse. The first in line dropped into Glacier Bowl and cut lovely turns down the slope. Face shots all the way. Those behind continued on to find their own fresh. Because many staff were more interested in the party going on at Pika's than in skiing there were only around a hundred and fifty people skiing the bowls. They got fresh tracks all day long on uncut white slopes under a big blue sky. Those who were there will probably remember that day for the rest of their lives.
The next year the Peak Chair was running. Anyone who has waited in the Peak Chair corral for the lift to open knows what that scene is like and what happens to the alpine once the lift starts unloading public at the top on a powder day. Skiers riding up the Red Chair (which isn't even red anymore) who look over and see the Peak Chair opening know it's not even worth heading for the lift because everything will be skied out before they even get to the chair. The alpine area has become one big bump run. There are so many bumps up there that they now have to groom the Saddle.
The opening of the Harmony Chair provided even easier access to the alpine and allowed more skiers to get up there even faster. It also seemed to allow skiers to notice the area to the south. Piccolo and Flute now have a highway leading to them. Flute sports bumps when it hasn't snowed recently. Soon, rumor has it, there will be sleeping and eating yerts (a yert is a kind of mountain hut), a hot tub, and doubtless generators chugging away, at the bottom of Flute somewhere. This facility sounds like it will not be for the Gore-Tex and duct tape crowd but rather the corporate types from Fort Worth who can afford it. Is this the thin edge of the wedge? If they're going to run a hot tub they should be able to run Super Nintendo play stations. Why not get the corporate partners involved? Maybe they can be called the Nintendo 64 Yerts. Maybe one day there'll be a movie theatre on the top of Blackcomb, a climbing wall on Decker, a Nike store at the bottom of the Cakehole...
The alpine area continues to be developed. It has little of the back-country feel it once had. This was perhaps inevitable and from a certain perspective it is probably a good thing. People who never, ever would have made the climb can now stand on Whistler Peak and look over at the dramatic black pillar called the Tusk. They too can enjoy being at the top of the mountain. For many (judging by the line-up on the Peak Chair, especially on a sunny day) it's the best place on the mountain to be.
In a way it's just a matter of degree anyway. How much is too much? Whistler Peak was really only a back-country adventure when skiers like Stefan Ples were hiking from the valley to ski it. The T-bars began the development. The Peak and Harmony chairs just continued it. Doubtless there were those who considered the T-bars almost sacreligious when they first went in. And yet, in providing high-speed lift access right to the Peak, the alpine area changed in a fundamental way. It became just another part of the ski area, like all the rest, but with fewer trees. Ultimately it was just too good to last, too wonderful to remain the terrain of those willing to work for it. It became a victim of itself.
Nothing is certain in the life except change. What happened to the alpine is a lot like what happens to some small towns. People are attracted by the laid-back people and small-town feel. The empty parking lots, uncrowded stores, and absence of bylaws are charming. They move so they can enjoy the lifestyle. More and more people move in for the same reasons and then, one day, the very thing they moved for has disappeared.

This vehicle was previously used as their primary rescue & EMS vehicle, hence the Star of Life, and the radio ID on the door of "R-463". The department didn't feel it was necessary to pay to chance the gold leaf on the doors, due to the age of the piece, and the consideration of replacement. I'll tell you... after taking a pretty in depth look at this thing in person, I must say that they most certainly don't make 'em like that anymore!
Prior to it being owned by Peck Hose, I believe it served with the Guilderland Fire Department under the designation "Squad 23".
I used to live in Bedminster (South Bristol) and was fascinated by this building. I always thought that it used to be a police station, but a passerby (who seemed to think that I must be from the Bristol Evening Post just because I had a camera + tripod) thought that it used to be a water tower then later decided that it must have been a church. Whatever it's history, it is definitely stands out from the rest of the buildings on East St. and now serves as an Italian restaurant.
Late addition: Thanks to weirdoldhattie & Tim Brayshaw for confirming it's original use as a police station.

================================
In response to the Congressional budget debacle which proved that DC is but a colony -- prone to being singled out unlike any other city in the country -- a number of activists, elected officials, and general citizens came out in force upon the grounds of Capitol Hill.
The crowd first formed on the sidewalk, but after some opening remarks by elected officials and activists: they quickly spilled into the street. The Capitol Police had been on hand & I'd thought it amusing that a couple were taking photos & videos... it wasn't until I saw the wristbands come out when I realised these weren't officers enjoying the moment; they were recording evidence.
With many minutes of warning, large portions of the group shifted over the sidewalk; whilst a core of dedicated supporters -- including our Mayor, a number of councilmembers, and members of DC Vote -- remained behind to block the roadway. The officers began to surround the group & repeated their warnings to get back on the sidewalk or face arrest.
Now in all fairness to the Capitol Police: they were doing their job. They were quite courteous about it & the protest was similarly jubilant right back. One woman was first to be bound, soon followed by several other activists. Then came Muriel Bowser: first councilmember to be arrested.
In general, I tend to dislike political grandstanding... but this was different. If our council was being arrested by our own police, I'd think it a cheesy photo op... but now our locally-elected officials were being arrested by the very forces we were out to protest: the Feds. This wasn't a mere photo op arrest; this was actually a legitimate arrest... the kind of thing that goes on your record; the kind of thing you spent a night in jail for.
Now granted, I don't expect anyone will be in jail longer than tomorrow; I'd be surprised if any were still locked up by midnight tonight. But it was Councilmember Bowser's arrest which really hit a moment... you could see the look on her face was of some worried concern: someone who had never been arrested before & didn't show up here today expecting to be arrested. As she was placed into the police van: her look of concern changed to a bit more worry. I mean this as no knock against Councilmember Bowser's committment; rather I felt it really help to humanise the entire event. It made me respect her all the more.
Yvette Alexander stood right beside us for quite some time, complicated in that she didn't have her ID on her. While it was entertaining to see our top officials being frisked, it was also quite entertaining that our easily-recognisable councilmember needed her ID... prompting a standerby to call one of her staffers with the best introduction I've ever heard over a phone: "Hi, your councilmember has been arrested." Also, kudos to Councilmember Alexander for going to jail in high heels!
There is a lot I can complain about with the council in general; and certainly with individual councilmembers & even the mayor. Heck, that's what politicians are for: you're not supposed to always like them. But this was an opportunity to set aside some of those issues (frankly, I'd say DC was glad to have a unifying moment after the past couple weeks) and cheer on our own brothers & sisters as they stood up in support of our rights.
It was certainly a proud moment to be a DC resident and a fine boost to our collective esteem after several weeks of turmoil within our local & federal levels of government. It's aggravating that my support for small & local government is inhibited by those in Congress whom advocate small & local government. If I wanted to live in a colony, I'd have moved to Williamsburg.
Usei este esmalte ontem para tirar as fotos da formatura.
Sinceramente? Não curti! =( Mas como tinha feito a unha de madruga, fiquei com preguiça de remover e colocar outro! Pelo menos ele cumpriu a função de ser discreto. =]
Mas, achei muito grosso por causa dos brilhos inclusos nele e deixa a mão toooda cheia deles! Um OH para limpar! =X Também não curti o furta-cor, achei meio brega na unha. Deveria ter passado 2 camadas só, ou ter usado por cima de um branquinho. Aí acredito que valeria a pena! Vivendo e aprendendo! rs

USE THIS STUFF.
Most people that like to spend gobs on hair products use Pureology. Because it's organic (oooOOooh... *wiggly arms*), smells nicely of peppermint and works really really really good. Pureology retails at a ghastly $30+ a bloody bottle... (however it took me like a year and a half to use the whole thing). According to my lovely hair person, Pureology was bought by L'Oreal a while back, who then watered down the formula and still charged the same amount.
Alterna retails for the same price, you can actually read the ingredients, seriously concentrated, and it works freakishly well.
I'm trying my damnest to prolong the life of my hair and when I got this, my hair was really dry and I was afraid this was as long as I could grow it w/it being blonde. The first week I had this I couldn't believe how it completely revitalized my hair. I've been using it over a month and have many happy hopes of growing my hair several more inches. (^ε^)♪
Oh and it's also a ghastly $30 a bottle. But a better value! And it has all sorts of crap like seaweed and good stuff.
Ok that's the end of my spiel to the void.

Used as a method of transportation as well as anti-aircraft weaponry, the HK3- "Grudger" Jeep was very useful to the UWC. The tail rocket was set on a fully automated tracer system to provide pin-point accuracy. When projected, the rocket would first be shot vertically and then ignited towards it's target. This prevented the diver from potential after-burn.

She's not afraid; she just likes to use her night light
When she gets paid, true religion gets it all
If they fit right.
She's a little bit manic, completely organic
Doesn't panic for the most part.
She's old enough to know, and young enough not to say no
To any chance that she gets for home plate tickets to see the Mets.
Like everybody, she's in over her head,
Dreads Feds, Grateful Dead, and doesn't take meds.
She's a Gemini Capricorn
Thinks all men are addicted to porn.
I don't agree with her half the time,
But, damn I'm glad she's mine.
Her eyes, that's where hope lies.
That's where blue skies
Meet the sunrise.
Her eyes, that's where I go
When I go home.
She got the kinda strength that every man wishes he had.
She loved Michael Jackson up until he made Bad.
She doesn't know the word 'impossible'
Don't care where I've been and doesn't care where we're goin' to.
She takes me as I am, and that ain't easy.
She's beautiful. So beautiful.
And sometimes I think she's truly crazy.
And I love it.
