Using my laptop's display as a source for polarized light, a polystyrene CD jewel case top was photographed using an analyzing polarizer in front of the camera lens.
The polystyrene top was briefly heated in the center with a propane torch causing the plastic to warp. The upper left corner curled up about an inch compared to the rest of the piece.
The color patterns are due to interference caused by retardation of the light going through the plastic. Internal stresses were frozen when the plastic cooled creating a stress tensor field that resulted in a varying birefringence which is seen by a spectral color pattern.

Using sunset mode on my camera actually helps alot, as the focus on the mode I normally use seems to go a bit poor when the light fades. Obviously not the best quality in the world but alot better than what it would have been.
I haven't seen a Polo Saloon this old for a while, it was renamed the classic with the introduction of the second generation model. I like the square headlamps, I always felt the round ones dated it somewhat? Looked in pretty good shape, these old things survive in good numbers for now (at least in hatchback form).
Using the same design principles of my Nintendo World Mosaic from fall 2013, in conjunction with my mosaic “Lite Brite” mood lamps from December, I’ve combined both ideas and created a flat mosaic sprite portrait with hollow innards lined with bright LED strips! The light from the LEDs illuminate the colored LEGO dots plugged into a mosaic grid of Technic bricks, thus mimicking a “Lite Brite” effect. Each LED strip is soldered into a series circuit with 24 gauge wires, then connected to a switch and a female DC adapter plug. The grid of LED strips is attached to a rear door which opens/closes via LEGO hinge bricks.

Using the brick stitch technique, I wove tiny seed beads around the perimeter of these sturdy sterling silver hoops, using nymo thread, a strong multifilament thread favored by bead artists. The beadwork on these earrings will not flop around as I use a firm tension in my weaving, but it is slightly flexible. Store your earrings flat when not wearing them, and I would recommend not wearing these to bathe or swim since there is thread in the design.
These earrings feature tiny size 11 and size 15 seed beads in a range of matte and shiny finishes in copper, teal, blue and purple for a tribal boho look. These earrings feature a looped edging with the addition of frosted blue tear drops. The sterling hoops have a thicker gauge ear wire than my silver plated hoops.
Today I went to the dentist. Basically my whole life I've been afraid of the dentist. Over the last few years, that fear has finally started going away. Today at the dentist my ankles were so locked in fear, I could have broken my ankle. Anyways, I made it out alive. But, I got another cavity.
Honestly, the reason I took this because slowly as I grow older, I slowly grow more comfortable with my teeth. I barely smile because of them, but still I'm learning I just gotta buck up and deal with the way they are. So when pushing myself into that I decided I'd better do this picture.

Following collection from infected wheat plants using a cyclone collector, stem rust spores are sieved to remove chaff and other detritus, at the Njoro research station, part of the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI). These spores can be stored for use in inoculation the next season.
Njoro is home to an ongoing screening program, working in close partnership with CIMMYT to identify sources of resistance to the Ug99 race of stem rust. This virulent new strain of the disease, which emerged in Uganda in 1999, is already endemic in the area, making it possible to use Njoro as a testing ground for wheats from all over the world. More than 30,000 wheat lines are now being screened each year.
For more information on stem rust, see CIMMYT's Wheat Doctor: wheatdoctor.cimmyt.org/en/pests-a-diseases/list/122?task=....
For information on collection and inoculation techniques, see the CIMMYT publication "Rust diseases of wheat: Concepts and methods of disease management", available as a pdf at: libcatalog.cimmyt.org/download/cim/38487.pdf.

A screencap from the music video of Gotye and Kimbra singing "Somebody that I used to Know".
After falling in love with this song and video, I decided this would be really fun to etch. And those shapes made proportionalizing a lot easier!
Took about 3 hours, must have listened to the song a good 15 times while working on it. I am thrilled with how this turned out!

Nepalese women carry wood harvested sustainably from a forest.
The future of forests is an important issue in the Copenhagen talks – with countries aiming to come to an agreement that will reduce deforestation and degradation.
Forests cover nearly half of Nepal but many of these are being cut down, which means there are fewer trees to absorb the dangerous greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
DFID programmes in Nepal are helping protect the forests by encouraging local people to look after them and earn a living from the forests’ natural resources in a sustainable way.

Even I only used this transport interchange for maybe 1 or 2 times when I was a kid, the unique spatial arrangement of the complex still evolved from my memory when I re-visited and entered the fenced off, narrow queue of the terminus.
-
Construction started in 1983, with the multi-storey car park opened in April 1986. The Transport Complex connected to the pier with ferry services serving mainly between Tsuen Wan and Central. The Complex provides passage interchanges to the bus, van and taxi services directly from the pier. The building programmes also included government departments (e.g. Identical Card issue), and other retail booths & food stores. The building has however been disconnected to the central Tsuen Wan areas since the Tsuen Wan MTR service operated even before the completion of the building. The ferry service was closed in 2000 due to the more convenient use of road transport from Tsuen Wan to Central through the West Cross Harbour Tunnel, causing the Complex to be further under-used.
The use of individual staircase connecting to each of the bus stop termini was first used in this building - an unique machine-like design to avoid large loads of pedestrians to cross the bus platforms for safety reason.
The most interesting moment of the building was the establishment of a driving school on the 9th and 10th floors of the building since 1999.
Most of the bus routes using the Complex have relocated their termini to Tsuen Wan West Station Public Transport Interchange in 2003, and left a larger area of the building into disuse. Under the MTR Corporation's TW5 property development project, the carpark Complex is planned to be closed from 5 Feb 2013 and will be demolished and replaced by residential towers.

A contractor uses a wrench to tighten the massive saw teeth of the circular saw of a feller buncher at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service (FS) Kaibab National Forest, Williams Ranger District's Cougar Park Task Order worksite, in Arizona, on December 4, 2018. The saw can cut through 10" trees in less than two seconds.
âTimber Tomâ Dauenhauer, a timber sale administrator for the Kaibab National Forest, is visiting the restoration work site.
The 1,342-acre Cougar Park Task Order is part of the broader Four Forest Restoration Initiative, which is intended to treat more than 2.4 million acres of ponderosa pine forest across northern Arizona. The work within the Cougar Park timber sale, located south of Bill Williams Mountain, is about 60 percent complete. Current activity includes heavy logging equipment such as feller bunchers, skidders, and loaders. The ultimate goal of the timber sale is to improve forest health and reduce the potential for high-intensity wildfires that could threaten lives, property, and natural resources. The Four Forest Restoration Initiative seeks to increase resilience in the fire-adapted ponderosa pine forest by reducing tree stand densities to a more historical level, which eventually reduces the potential for uncharacteristic wildfire. This work also offers greater protection for residents living in and adjacent to the wildland-urban interface, where developments and forested areas merge.

This is a multi-use building group of the Nishi-Shinjyuku with the miniature garden photograph of the last from Shinjuku Center Building.
In this way, if it sees, I will think that it is the convenience of right to sunshine, but there are many buildings where the upper floor has a triangle.
While I am walking along this multi-use building group, I am not noticed at all. It is a certain thing very well as the place which he does not notice unless it sees from a top.

Man, I really need to stop posting so much. As you can see my mind keeps running overtime. At this rate I'm going to need a Pro account soon!
Hopefully this will be the last thought of the day. So, I was stalking my roommate's tumblr and she wrote something that I absolutely loved and it's the downright TRUTH. I loved it so much that I need to share it. I'm basically gonna copy and paste it because I couldn't have said it better.
You Boys are Idiots
"When the going gets tough, MAN UP. Don’t just pick the easy way out and give up. Don’t run away. Try and REALLY TRY. Don’t just say that you’ll try and not try. TRY for goodness sake! When that’s not enough TRY HARDER!! Don’t use God and His will as an excuse for your laziness and cowardice unless you’re really sure He told you so. If He didn’t, at least man up to your own short comings and admit that you’re giving up because of you, not because of God. I’m sure He wouldn’t appreciate you using Him like that either.
We’re good catches. We deserve it. We’re good for you too. But the point is, we want to be there for you. One beauty of a relationship is that you make us better and we make you better. One beauty of a God centered relationship is that God makes us both better. We want to be there with you and fight it out together. We don’t need you to be perfect. We’re not perfect. We just want you to commit and try to make it work. We just want to try with you TOGETHER.
Boys, read this - whether you’re in a relationship, single, looking, or claiming celibacy - read it for the sake of yourselves and your significant other - she may even become your wife.

James "Jimmy" Stoddart Gifford, first defence, 21 years, 150 pounds; playing senior since 1905. By the time the professional game came along in 1909, Gifford had already earnt the reputation for being one of the hardest and toughest players to take to the field. During the professional era his heated rivalry with ‘Newsy’ Lalonde of the Vancouver Lacrosse Club was legendary, nasty, and relentless. Even in old age Gifford continued to hold a grudge and could not bear being in the presence of Lalonde – even refusing to attend his hall-of-fame induction because Lalonde would also be there receiving the same honour, over 50 years passing since their last bloody battles had been fought.

Charles Welsh was a sportsman with membership in the Vancouver Golf and country Club. His main sporting interest was however in lacrosse, where he was on the Board of B.C. Lacrosse Association, was a trustee of the Minto Cup, and was involved with the New Westminster Salmonbellies for many years, with his highlight coming as manager in 1908 when his team won the Minto Cup.

New Westminster Salmonbellies travelled to Montreal for a challenge match. They beat the Montreal Shamrocks for its first Minto Cup (then given to the top senior team in Canada).
1908 was a pivotal year in the history of the Minto Cup when the New Westminster Salmonbellies defeated the Montréal Shamrocks 12 to 7 in their two-game, total-goals series. The first game of the series was a close 6-5 result before the Salmonbellies responded with a commanding 6-2 win in the rematch to clinch the silverware.

With the benefit of hindsight, the 1908 New Westminster-Montréal series signaled a changing of the guard and is probably the most historically significant event in the cup’s history until the juniors took over control of the mug. It saw the game’s first dynasty coming to an end with a brand-new one at the opposite end of the country ready to take its place. The victory for the Royal City was notable for two other important reasons: the New Westminster Salmonbellies were the last bonafide amateur team to challenge and win the professional trophy as well as the first club from the Pacific Coast to pry the silver mug from the hands of the Easterners.

- the photographer - Frederick Louis Hacking
(b. 2 July 1880 in Ontario, Canada - d. 20 February 1969 at age 88 in Monterey, California, USA)
He started as a photo printer with the Wadds Brothers, then purchased S.J. Thompson's former New Westminster studio and by 1908 was running his own Vancouver studio at 445 Granville St. in the Fairfield Block. His landscape photographs attacted notice at the 1899 New Westminster exhibition.
The Daily News-Advertiser described his Vancouver studio when it opened in the Fairfield Block (Building) in 1908. Hacking, who was the official representative from BC at the Photographers' Association of the Pacific Northwest 1910 conference in Vancouver, was also elected vice-president for BC that year.
He later immigrated to California and registered for the US World War Two draft in 1942.
VANCOUVER STUDIO (FAIRFIELD BUILDING) DESCRIPTION:
This description of F.L. Hacking's new photo studio was published by the (Vancouver) Daily News-Advertiser on 14 Aug 1908, p. 15. The article was illustrated with three photographs depicting the "Reception Room", the "Skylight Room" and "Another View of Reception Room."
"An Artistic Studio.
A member of the "News-Advertiser" staff visited the new photographic studio of Mr. F.L. Hacking in the Fairfield Building, Granville Street, where for weeks past contractors and decorators have been transforming several suites of rooms and offices into what is now recognized as the most complete and artistic studio in the Province.
On entering the reception room, one is immediately impressed by the beautiful and quaint appearance of the apartment, which is furnished in the early English style. Amongst the many special features one's attention is drawn to the beautiful panelled walls, enriched with copper nailing, the unique fire grate and the casement windows and doors, whilst four heavy clusters of drop lights, suspended from the beamed ceilings--all designed and made especially for this studio--give the room a pleasing and uncommon appearance.
The delightful color scheme, from the rich rug on the floor to the delicate harmony of walls and ceilings, tends to show to advantage the specimens of artistic portraiture displayed, and gives visitors that feeling of repose and satisfaction that assures them that their own work could not be entrusted to better hands.
Leading from the reception room through a massive archway are the dressing rooms, each fitted with long pier mirrors and furnished in the same good taste.
The skylight room, one of the most important features of Mr. Hacking's business, has been constructed to give lighting facilities which will enable photographs to be taken at all reasonable times and under all conditions. The room is large and not encumbered with a hetreogeneous [sic] mass of painfully artificial scenery and paraphernalia; instead you see instruments and accessories of the best lenses by Dallmeyer, of London, England, and Goerz, of Berlin; camera by Anthony, of New York, and the necessary backgrounds are a revelation of simplicity and rich value, all painted especially by Packard, of Boston.
Nearly every modern equipment known to photography may be found in this up-to-date studio. The developing and finishing rooms are complete in every detail, giving this studio advantages for promptly executing work, a desideratum of no small importance, and one that will be immediately appreciated.
As a capable photographer, Mr. Hacking needs but little introduction in Vancouver. He was apprenticed when a young man in a leading Eastern studio, where high ideals and careful workmanship were early acquired. Eleven years ago he came to Vancouver and after eight years connected with Wadds Brothers' studio purchased the studio in New Westminster formerly conducted by Mr. S.J. Thompson. His artistic work brought immediate success that has necessitated branching out into the broader fields of opportunity offered in Vancouver.
Not being satisfied with anything but the best location and equipment, he finally secured the present quarters in the Fairfield building, the heart of the best district, which our readers are heartily commended to visit and inspect.
Mr. Hacking aptly says that "the aim and purpose of this studio is to turn out only high grade photographs, and the best that experience, artistic training, perfect equipment and skilled workmanship can produce is offered to its patrons."
