It's also some kind of eugenics programme, for sure. See  @TheResident : She's ticketed for Mars, but shadow-banned on Twitter. Go figure: Ready for the week.

Life Magazine Photographer Loomis Dean on Working in 1950s Hollywood

They had a man with an airbrush set-up whom they called "the nipple eraser". He also talks about how difficult it was get a photograph of Noel Coward outside at mid-day, because he typically didn't get out of bed until 4 PM. He also talks about A-Bomb tests at Frenchman's Flat in Nevada, visible from LA and bomb-shelters and bomb-shelter parties. See  David Lynch's Twin Peaks Season 3 . Subscribe to David Hoffman .

See  Myra West - How to Cold Approach Women Without Being Creepy  and  Terence McKenna on Time Travel . That's how I felt the first time I met Rachel, but we did meet again and went climbing with friends, and cycling and swimming from Grantchester to Cambridge (but she was swimming the other way, so we didn't see much of each other that day) and we even went to hear an Easter Bach choral concert (The St. John Passion, maybe) at Kings' College together. And Rachel was quite a large part of the character of Aristotle in this introduction to Aristotle that I wrote. See also  Gigi Young - The Psychic Experience of Time . Subscribe to Myra West .

Even a day or two later it's still so good I ended up eating half the loaf:  Ian Grant's Weather Report . See  https://breadandcie.com  and my comment yesterday on this Applied Science video, from  Applied Science - Laser Cutting and Silver Sintering to Make Ceramic Circuit Boards : The Raspberry Pi kiln controller sounds like fun. When I was in Cochabamba I spent some time fantasizing about pizza, and thinking about what sort of a clay/brick bread oven you could make using traditional techniques and computer control of humidity and temperature. Traditional bread ovens have multiple uses. You need high temperature for pizzas, but then you can cook other stuff as it cools down. Loaves, cakes etc. and finishing off with meringues and things which are more like a drying process than a cooking process. So the kinds of software you use in a controller would need to be modular arrangements like they use in SCADA systems in industry for controlling complex chemical manufac...

Norma Michel - Lo que no puedes ver (1991) M.C. Escher also used impossible perspectives, but his pen and ink drawings are less organic and have a more rigid mathematical (geometric) discipline. I have just learned that Escher was born in Leeurwarden , which I visited once in March 1987, the day after the Herald of Free Enterprise disaster.

Applied Science - Laser Cutting and Silver Sintering to Make Ceramic Circuit Boards

Image
Watch to the end to see a beautiful demonstration of a circuit being used to solder itself! Wow! ❤️ The sintering process is interesting. It's basically sub-micron silver powder and a tiny bit of glass screen-printed onto the ceramic, that bakes into a highly conductive trace. It has a non-conductive coating of some unknown mixture of, probably, glass and oxide. Subscribe to Applied Science .

Subscribe to David Lynch Theater . Eiichi Fukada - Piezoelectricity from Wood Subscribe to  Engineering History , See  Quarterly Reviews of Biophysics: Piezoelectric properties of biological polymers. Eiichi Fukada : Piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity in wool and hair were observed by Martin early in 1941. The piezoelectric effect in wood was investigated in detail by Bazhenov (1961). Both converse and direct effect of shear piezoelectricity in wood was demonstrated by Fukada (1955). Bending piezoelectricity in bone was first discovered by Yasuda (1953). Shear and longitudinal piezoelectricity in bone and tendon was quantitatively investigatged by Fukada & Yasuda (1957, 1964). See ETH Zurich  Oral-History:Eiichi Fukada : In this interview, Dr. Fukada describes his childhood, his undergraduate research at the University of Tokyo in the final days of World War II, the founding of the Kobayasi Institute of Physical Research, and his early research on the elastic proper...
