THE WIDER VIEW: Three years in the making, it's every boy's dream... the ultimate home-made model aeroplane By Jason Lewis, Mail on Sunday Security Editor Updated: 12:30 GMT, 20 December 2009 It's every schoolboy's dream - from the tiny rows of ammunition to the miniature cockpit canopy gracing this stunning model aircraft. It is an exact replica of a P-51D Mustang which was America's primary long-range fighter plane during the Second World War. And it was made by a retired dentist who used some of his instruments to create it. Built on a 1/16 scale, every part is fully functional, linked by an intricate series of minuscule chains, cables and hinges. Dream machine: The P-51D Mustang took Young C Park, a retired Honolulu dentist, an incredible 6,000 hours to construct The undercarriage retracts and the controls work, although the levers are so small they have to be operated with a pair of tweezers. Mr Park, 77, used more than 50ft of aluminium, reforming and shaping it on a lathe until he was happy with the result. Firepower: Ammunition belts inside the left wing.
Internetworking with Microchip Microcontrollers - PIC18F4620 + ENC28J60 Another consideration is that silicon revisions of the ENC28J60 prior to B5 have a bug that requires the SPI clock (SCK) to be between 8MHz to 10MHz to avoid clock synchronization problems and unreliable access to the ENC registers, then you have to choose a MCU clock speed that permits generating a SPI clock within the acceptable range, or as a workaround to this problem use the same clock source for both devices, for example using the ENC28J60 CLKOUT output as the source for the MCU clock (this configuration is shown in the miniPIC10T project that is a variant of this project showing a minimal implementation). This clock synchronization problem has been fixed in the B5 silicon revision, the new acceptable range for SCK is now DC to 20MHz. The new silicon revision introduced another change, now the recommended value for RBIAS (R17 in the schematics) is 2.32K 1% for Rev B5 and 2.7K 1% for Rev B1/B4. Several people asked if this type of circuit can be built using wire-wrap.
Awesome looking – 3D Tattoo These days, people become not satisfy with the 2D image. Hence we have lots of things in 3D format, 3D Murals Painting, 3D Street Painting, and 3D Chalk Painting. And now, we have 3D tattoo. The reason I wrote this poster, is just because I was freak out today by seeing one of those 3D tattoo… They are pretty scary or cool at first view.

The Most Amazing Paper Sculptures ~ www.popgive.com The Eckmans (Allen and Patty) are the inventors of this process and the Eckman Method® of Cast Paper Sculpture is a trade mark of theirs alone. Since 1988 Patty and Allen have developed and perfected the medium of cast paper far beyond any other artist in the world. Their work is considered to be the premier of the industry by many critics. Allen has a great interest in the Native American Indian partly because his great-great grandmother was a Cherokee. Patty has a great interest in wildlife, birds and flowers in particular. Patty also has interests in the Native American culture and since the year 2000 has been sculpting beautiful Indian woman and children. What is the Eckman Method? The Eckman Method is the trademark for Allen and Patty Eckman's educational services, namely, conducting classes in the field of creating cast paper sculptured art and distributing course materials in connection therewith. eckmanfineart.com
La Scheda Pratica - INCENTIVI 2009: ROTTAMAZIONE AUTO, MOTO, ED ACQUISTO MEZZI ECOLOGICI, BICICLETTE, CICLOMOTORI Ultimo aggiornamento 24/9/2009Gli incentivi per il 2009 relativi alla rottamazione dei veicoli sono state introdotte con il Decreto Legge 5/2009 del 10/2/2009 convertito nella legge 33/09 pubblicata sulla GU dell'11/4/2009.. Rispetto al 2008 vi sono delle differenze, prima tra tutte l'assenza di incentivi per la sola rottamazione compensata, in parte, dall'aumento di quelli destinati a chi rottama acquistando nel contempo un mezzo nuovo.E' bene precisare che gli incentivi di rottamazione con riacquisto del 2008 non sono stati prorogati e quelli per il 2009 decorrono dal 7 Febbraio (vale la data di sottoscrizione del contratto di acquisto). Conseguentemente, le rottamazioni con riacquisto effettuate nel periodo 1 Gennaio-6 Febbraio rimangono escluse dalle agevolazioni. Nota per chi acquista nel periodo 1 Gennaio-6 Febbraio Come gia' detto la validita' di questi incentivi, fin dalla loro prima introduzione, era stata fissata a tutto il 2009. Questi gli incentivi: Att!
Race against the tide: Artist creates intricate masterpieces... that the sea washes away within hours By Eddie Wrenn Updated: 17:19 GMT, 27 July 2009 When artists see a canvas, most of them want to fill it, even if it's with nothing more than a doodle. But sand artist Andres Amador works with one of the biggest canvases available, with entire lengths of beaches swallowed up by his art. Sadly the sea is no discerning art critic, for once the San Francisco artist finishes his staggering artwork, the waves come in to wipe the slate clean. Enlarge Waves on the beach: Andres Amador has been producing sand art on Ocean Beach in San Fransisco for five years Circles on the beach: The giant structures make for an interesting coastal walk Many of his stunning images, which start out as simple squiggles in the 39-year-old's notebook, span an incredible 500x300feet and are raked into the grains in a race against the tide. Using a canvas crafted by the elements the patient American waits for a full or new moon to make sure low tides offer him plenty of space to muster the incredible patterns.
Derek Gores Simon Schubert May 11th, 2009 It is quite amazing what Simon Schubert created by just making some folds in sheets of paper. You can see his work at the gallery Upstairs Berlin till June 27th. maisazi.com - emozioni in cucina Installing CoffeeShop Actions 25 Striking Framed Papercuts by Peter Callesen Peter Callesen Peter Callesen thrives on creating art from paper, rather on it. Using paper only as a source, he creates beautiful sculptural works. Each work is made by cutting out one sheet of paper, and using the removed scraps to create figures, buildings, and other objects. His work ranges from 2D to 3D. These sheets range from small a4 size or as big as 7m by 5m. Peter Callesen was born in Denmark, 1967. We absolutely love new creativity methods, and Peter has outdone himself with the following works.
