A visually lively leaflet, with an area diagram on the reverse, issued by the Western Region of British Railways for the new diesel multiple units that were being introduced on Cardiff and Valley area services with the promise of improved services. The introduction of the DMUs was part of the vast British Transport Commission's Modernisation Programme that sadly, in some ways and areas, was to prove a somewhat misguided affair and, in some ways, loaded the organisation with debt that added to the call for the later reorganisation that included the 'Beeching Axe' in an effort to stem the railways losses.

 

In many ways the new DMU services were a vast improvement - in terms of passenger comfort - and attempts were made to re-organise services, timetables and fares. In some areas this was successful but in others the impact was still seen as being insufficient to save stations and lines in later culls. The South Wales and Valley services seen here saw much retrenchment in the 1960s closures - much was lost and many stations closed. However, from the 1980s onwards much work has been undertaken to re-open various branch lines and stations to passenger service and, currently, many of the lines are seeing a real renaissance as Transport for Wales are investing heavily to bring new standards of service to the area as part of their Metro system.

 

The front of the leaflet has quite a variety of typefaces to 'catch' the eye and uses decal based on a scraperboard or Windsor Board illustration of a speeding DMU; this is possibly by A.N. Wolstenholme who did much such work for BR.

NGC 7822 Question Mark Nebula is a striking and visually captivating emission nebula in the constellation Cepheus, located approximately 2,900 light-years away. The complex encompasses the emission region designated Sharpless 171 and the young cluster of stars named Berkeley 59.

This vibrant and colorful region forms part of the larger star-forming complex called the Cepheus Flare. In this grand area, the dynamic interplay of radiation emanating from young, hot stars illuminates the surrounding gas and dust. The youngest portions of this complex are only a few million years old - very young by stellar standards!

The complex also includes one of the hottest stars discovered within one kpc of the Sun, namely BD+66 1673, which is an eclipsing binary system consisting of an O5V that exhibits a surface temperature of nearly 45,000 K and a luminosity about 100,000 times that of the Sun! The star is one of the primary sources illuminating the nebula and shaping the complex's formations.

The nebula showcases intricate and fascinating structures, including dark dust lanes intertwined with glowing pockets of ionized hydrogen, making it an endlessly intriguing subject for astrophotography enthusiasts.

The nebula gets its name from the shape when seen in a very wide field of view. The region covered by this image is a close-up that focuses on the void in the larger mass of the nebula at the top of the image. More detailed framing info will shared later on.

This was a design for a hosting company called Hostcube. I wanted to create something a bit more edgy, polished, and more graphically heavy.

 

I made use of subtle gradient and lighting effects to give the design more depth. I've also paid attention to small details when creating the background patterns, headers, iconography, and overall content area treatments. On top of that, I've also come up with the concept for the logo, which then I dissected into smaller pieces to visually represent the VPS nodes used in this type of hosting service. The client requested 2 comps, and they were complete opposites, as you can see by viewing the second version here.

The National Disabled Veterans TEE Tournament is the brainchild of several employees of the Iowa City VA Medical Center, along with two visually impaired Iowa Veterans. These visionaries created the TEE Tournament, an acronym standing for TRAINING, EXPOSURE and EXPERIENCE. In 2008, it became one of six VA national rehabilitation programs for Veterans. The event expanded to include not only blind Veterans, but amputees, wheelchairbound Veterans, and those with other life changing disabilities. It takes place each year in Iowa City.

I felt like doing something visually extreme just for the sake of it and I was thinking of waterfalls. I imagined a tower of them and wondered how many I could stack on one page with it still looking pleasing to the eye. The answer was 7 different stamps and 9 impressions of them for a total of 9 falls and most of them large. For such a large scene, I didn't have to add many more stamps to finish off the scene because there wasn't much more space left. I love adding white pigment ink and Dr. Martin's Bleed Proof White splatter painting embellishments on scenes so this one was a real treat when it came to that.

I don't typically buy anything from the Revoltech series, mostly likely because the licenses that they play with aren't usually my thing. However, once in a while, an interesting figure pops up.

 

For the last little while, one of the more visually impressive sublines from the Revoltech is the Figure Complex: Amazing Yamaguchi line featuring various beloved X-Men characters sculpted by Yamaguchi Katsuhisa. I know a Wolverine and Magneto were released, and a Gambit will be released. I also believe the line has moved onto at least non-X characters with the recently solicited Iron Man.

 

Obviously, this figure is none of those - this is Psylocke.

 

For someone that likes figures and toys, it's surprising how few comics I've read. My introduction to the character was from the original Capcom Vs. Game, X-Men: Children of the Atom in all her uninhibited bouncy glory.

 

The character naturally has a long and storied past that I'd probably lose much sleep over if I actually tried to research. I believe that "too long, didn't read" version of it is that she is a mutant (duh) named Elizabeth "Betsy" Braddock, the sister of Captain Marvel. Through a series of events such as self sacrifice and transference of mental capacities, she ends up in a body of an Japanese woman who is the brain dead wife of the leader of the Hand, an assassin clan, and is brainwashed into become one of them. She develops Psionic powers (ability to form things out of mental energy, mostly for her being blades), and eventually breaks free of this brainwashing, and that, friends is the genesis of the X-Men character Psylocke.

 

None of that matters, of course. I bought the figure because the previews made her look really, really, good, and Psylocke herself being a very sharp character design with long flowing purple hair and her purple kind-of-there outfit. While it's been out for probably 6 months now, I only recently got mine because I insist that the guy who sold it to me bring it to me personally... even if I had to wait six months.

 

If you've never watched gameplay of Psylocke, just think slinky female ninja dressed in purple capable of making various energy things. And, as mentioned, the prototype pictures show cased that very well. So, how did it do?

 

Well, let's start from the top.

 

Psylocke comes with the figure, two face plates (one neutral, one smiling), a sheathed katana, an empty sheath, twin katanas, twin energy katanas, twin Psyblades, 4 sets of hands, a detachable sash, and a dynamic stand with both a peg connector, along with a clamp that I guess would give you a bit more height with your aerial stuff but I never actually used it. I personally would have like an additional angry/attacking face plate because as it is, she's a bit too serene looking.

 

Also kind of neat is that on the cardboard insert (and side flaps of the box) are full colour prints of I guess what comic art inspired this particular design.

 

The Revoltech joint system is a bit different from the Figma and Figuart systems.. at least I guess they are, and at the very least this one is.

 

Articulation is very, very, very good. I cannot emphasize how much you can get this figure to do despite it's small size. The trade off is that some of the joints look really weird when not positioned properly, specifically the shoulders and knees, which are double or triple joints depending on which one we're talking about. Whomever designed the tray for holding Psylocke really didn't do the figure any favours to say the least. However, the amount of knee bend and chest press that this figure more than overshadows this first impression issue, and that range or movement is something you want for a figure like Psylocke.

 

In addition to the aforementioned, all your standard points of articulation are present. Bonus ones include a toe swivel, articulation for her sash, thigh swivel, independent neck and head articulation, and hair that can be lifted to all for greater neck movement, with the latter head/neck related items allowing for some great crouching poses.

 

Sadly, while her shoulders worked out just fine despite their wonky appearance, her ass suffers from the dreaded "thigh separation" scenario where the movement of the legs creates an unsightly gap where the thigh meets the back of the body, particularly notable given that she doesn't wear pants. But, again, at least the trade off is great articulation.

 

Psylocke I guess would technically be the action figure (or at least middle of the pack Japanese figure) equivalent of a Butterface release. To be fair, it is generally what was promised on the box, so I don't really have anyone to blame but myself for buying her if this was the key aspect that ruins the experience for me. Both the prototype and the final item feature the same round almost featureless face with the undersized nose.

 

No it's other things that serve not only as a topic of discussion, but also kind of give you a feeling as to why Figma and Figuarts are kind of priced the way they are.

 

Psylocke has an MSRP of about 6,000 Yen, which is about the price of your run of the mill Figuart, with Figma coming in closer to what.. 7,000 if not more these days? The releases are about the same size, but lets remember that Figuarts have no stand and very few accessories, and clearly Psylocke destroys any run of the mill Figuart figure in terms of value.

 

Part of the pricing on everything is of course the cut paid for the actual license, but it's not like a Marvel license is particularly cheap. So what else is there?

 

It pretty much comes down to paint.

 

If you look closely, you'll probably notice that Psylocke has no paint whatsoever on her fleshy bits. Not only does this look a bit meh, but it makes photographing her a major pain in the ass, especially if you're trying to bring out details.. like her nose and eye sockets. You'll notice that the paint masking on her leg bands isn't bad, but there are more weak spots than on its Figma and Figuarts competitors, especially if we're talking about figure with a relatively simple colour scheme. Some minor paint issues were also spotted on her neck piece, but those are primarily paint transfers. There were also some areas with paint overspray, but it wasn't anything bootleg bad, just something worth noting.

 

Her translucent purple hair is also a big seller for this figure. The overall final product is pretty good, but if you look closely (and in the instance of the back of her head, not even that close), you'll notice some very rough spots that I don't know were a QC issue or a design flaw. By comparison, nothing this was spotted on either KOS-MOS or T-ELOS, both of which are at least 7 years older than Psylocke.

 

For what it is worth, her effect parts are very well done, particularly her Psiblades with the gradient from cold to warm Purple. The quality of the stand itself is, from my analysis, more solid than a Figma stand, mostly due to a combination of better plastic, a thicker arm, and better designed joints. There were also no issues with regards to rough plastic finishes other than the aformentioned hair problems.

 

One other issue that I read about was the face plate itself. Some owners seem to be indicating that due to the way the face is mounted on the head (friction based, one slot, straight above the face) the figure arrived with the socket on the hair already worn out and wouldn't hold the face in place, or would be in danger of doing so in the future. I didn't have that issue on mine, but I do understand where they're coming from with these statements.

 

I should probably also mention the eyes. Those who are familiar with the Hot Toys world will know the term PERS, which is their fancy term for eyes that can be moved on the sculpts to facilitate an even greater amount of posing. Amazingly this figure also features eyeballs that can be moved, though it's not as complicated as the PERS system. This is actually pretty neat given the size of the eyeballs, though you might want to ditch the included white pick in favour of a tiny screw driver or something to move the eyes as I believe the 90 degree bend actually makes it harder to manipulate the eyes into the right direction.

 

In the end, a very good release, and probably the best Psylocke action figure I've ever seen.. of course, the only others I have seen are the Marvel Legends one which again, aren't bad given the price. Those looking for a more legit comic sculpt need not apply here, naturally.

 

But there is no doubt that this is a sharp looking figure, and for the price it comes with quite a few goodies. It just lacks that final bit of spit polish that would push it from being very good to being outstanding. Still, if you like your ninjas purple and slinky, you can't go wrong.

Visually impaired and disabled Veterans from across the United States participate in the 21st National Disabled Veterans TEE Tournament

Visually impaired and other disabled Veterans roll for 300 during bowling events at the 2014 TEE Tournament.

The Delaware Division for the Visually Impaired (DVI) partnered with the Wilmington Police Department in February to provide visual impairment sensitivity training for about 65 police officers at the Walnut Street precinct. Activities included hearing from Patti Addison and Frederick Noesner, who have visual impairments, and being blindfolding and provided with a white cane and sighted guide in order to navigate the halls, stairs, and the outside front area of the Justice of the Peace Courthouse in Wilmington. With the success of the training, conducted by DVI certified orientation & mobility therapists Heather Dougherty and Maria Lepore-Stevens, additional training dates have been scheduled for March.

A comment from the Irish Amateur Wrestling Association

 

"Inclusiveness is key! This was spectacular.

A visually impaired wrestler competing in a main stream championship wrestling tournament. Arron, from Portlaoise Combat Academy Vs Peyton from Mohawk Valley Wrestling Club NY. One of the wrestlers was visually impaired, so to even out abilities, both wrestlers were blind folded.

Well done to Referee John for his experienced approach to this bout.

Great sportsmanship & wrestling from both."
