Captured before a 3-0 victory, in the First Division of the United Counties League, over Leicester area neighbours Kirby Muxloe.
Three up at half-time, Birstall, during the second period, saw a penalty saved, struck the inside of a post three times and were denied in a one-on-one. Kirby Muxloe squandered three very good chances in the last 10 minutes.

Astronauts from five space agencies around the world take part in ESA’s CAVES training course– Cooperative Adventure for Valuing and Exercising human behaviour and performance Skills.
The three-week course prepares astronauts to work safely and effectively in multicultural teams in an environment where safety is critical.
As they explore caves they encounter caverns, underground lakes and strange microscopic life. They test new technology and conduct science – just as if they were living on the International Space Station.
The six astronauts have to rely on their own skills, teamwork and ground control to achieve their mission goals – the course is designed to foster effective communication, decision-making, problem-solving, leadership and team dynamics.
The six cavenauts of this edition of CAVES are ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst, NASA astronauts Joe Acaba and Jeanette Epps, Roscosmos’ cosmonaut Nikolai Chub, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Josh Kutryk and Japan’s space agency Takuya Onishi.

It's brilliant to see stuff like this still wearing cherished numberplates, this one would not normally stand out to me but I just had to document it. Still, I feel it may be worthwhile taking photos of every single 5 on the roads now, they are slowly but surely thinning out....
This one is a 1989 model, still taxed into next year too.

The Kodachrome Pictures:
These recently uploaded Kodachrome pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of consumer Kodachrome picture recording during about 70 of the 75 years that Kodachrome was commercially available to the public. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a Kodachrome slide. We took fewer pictures, trying to stretch resources, but some are still frivolous.
I’m 97 (2016) and all tuckered out. I probably will not post much more. The ratio of today’s digital pictures that are kept for any length of time and/or printed is much less than the film photos taken in days past. History will be lost. Meanwhile you get to be bored by some old Kodachromes, Anscochromes, a Dufaycolor and perhaps an old black&white or so.
The Camera:
Most of these pictures are not very sharp. They were taken with an Argus AF 35mm miniature Bakelite camera bought in 1938 at the USNA by saving much of my small student stipend for about six months. It had a Cooke style three element lens of marginal quality for its day of laughable quality compared with any of today’s SLR lenses. It had slightly better resolving ability than today’s ever more scarce disposable film cameras. The AF was an Argus upgrade which enabled the camera to focus at different lengths from about 1.5 feet to infinity. Most consumer cameras of that day were what we call medium format today. Most of the cheaper consumer grade cameras were little more than box- cameras with single element non-focusing meniscus lenses. The larger film hid much of the softness. The then newer miniature cameras had to do better because of the smaller film exposure size.
The Film:
Kodachrome was my favorite film. My first roll in the late 30s was such a marvel to a young man. I had tried Dufaycolor which did pretty good, but if it had to be projected you had to ignore the lines of color which made up the image. Kodachrome was so much more colorful to boot. It was extremely sharp and almost grainless compared to other color and B&W processes.
Kodachrome was unique in American film history. Except for a licensee who used Kodachrome’s older process for a few years, nobody made anything like it. Most color films had all the color in the film. Kodachrome picked up color from the processing baths. Also unlike modern slide films which use chemical energy to reverse the negative image, Kodachrome used filtered lights to re-expose within the processing machine. Kodachrome evolved over the years, and was usually the clearest, sharpest grain free color film one could buy. That is until Kodak made a decision to reduce the budget to improve the product in favor of other products and offerings. Fuji Velvia soon eclipsed it in resolution and could be processed locally in regular E-6 mini-machines.
The Scanner, a Nikon IV ED:
The Nikon IV ED was rated by the manufacture to scan at 2900 PPI. Unlike most other scanners testing with a glass plate USAF 1951 with the resolution chart metal deposited on it, showed both vertical and horizontal resolution to be very close to that figure. When scanning a chart at maximum resolution one has to be concerned with registration between the lines on the chart and the pixel placement of the sensor. Exact registration is a hit and miss, re-trial exercise. With film the scanned bits of silver and dye clumps are randomly scattered without the need to have perfect alignment. I’d rate the IV ED at or very near 2900 PPI on film. Most scanners are over rated by 50-100%
Very Old machine it is one of the effects of the English colonization of Egypt
Are currently in one of the old houses whos owned by one of the very poor Egyptians in a very very poor area.
The most IMPORTANT ISSUE is that no one knows its there and no one knows the value of this ...ARCHEOLOGICAL...MACHINE...
...UNTIL NOW !!!
...IMAGINE THAT ...?!?!?!
The Commonwealth Club’s 114th Annual Dinner and 29th Annual Distinguished Citizen Gala is a dual celebration, reflecting on the last year of the Club’s events and accomplishments, as well as honoring outstanding members of the community who exemplify the Club’s values by presenting them with the Distinguished Citizen Award, an award reserved for those whose professional and humanitarian endeavors and accomplishments are worthy of recognition and celebration.
Recipients of this award have included local and global leaders whose contributions to society have had a positive and enduring impact, and who embody the qualities that make an individual’s life worthy of admiration: their generosity, their ability to inspire and their desire to make a difference in our world today and in our future tomorrow.
The recipients of the 2017 Distinguished Citizen Award are:
John R. Farmer, Former Chairman of The Commonwealth Club Board of Governors, and Former Goldman Sachs General Partner
Lata Krishnan, Chief Financial Officer of Shah Capital Partners
Alex Macgillivray, Deputy United States Chief Technology Officer in the Obama Administration
Megan Smith, United States Chief Technology Officer in the Obama Administration
Bernard J. Tyson., Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Kaiser Permanente
The Distinguished Citizen Gala will include a live auction, entertainment, and dinner catered by the Fairmont Hotel. The gala is The Commonwealth Club’s largest annual fundraiser, which raises funds to support the Club’s dynamic programming year-round.
The value "61 degrees" doesn't mean anything unless a reference frame is specified. On compasses used for navigation, North is the primary axis and all angles are given as degrees clockwise from North. In math class, the + x axis is the primary axis and all angles are given as degrees counter-clockwise from x. Both are valid, as are any other reference axes. Usually we'll just use an angle inside one of our force triangles and know that we tell if something is positive or negative from the direction its going in the picture.
That said, sines and cosines work if you use the angle from the positive x-axis. I've shown this with this picture. When you do the angle like this the calculator will give you whether you're talking about something in this reference frame to the left/down (negative) or to the right/up (positive).
To make your life easier, use these greater than 90 degree angles in this lab, because they're what you're reading directly off the protractor. The math that comes next will do so. We use the internal angle to decide which trig function to use (using SOH-CAH-TOA) and then directly plug the angle from the protractor in.
I was going to gloss over this detail in class, but two 8th period students during the 2016-17 school year wanted a mathematical justification of this, so we stayed after school and came up with this picture

A bunch of comedians from the UK used to have a saying, "And now, for something completely different".
A friend's Facebook post inspired the idea for this image a couple of months ago. All it took was finding figures of "The Child", to bring the idea to life.
It is a very American tale. A nice boy from Kansas meets a Valley Girl from California. They fall in love and adopt a couple of orphans.
