RE: PESO - Japanese girls go mobile
From: PDML [mailto:pdml-boun...@pdml.net] On Behalf Of knarftheria...@gmail.com Love it! Do they have wi-fi in their subways! we have free wi-fi on the tube at the moment, although I think they'll be charging after the pilot period. It's very useful during the summer to be able to moan to people about the lack of air conditioning on the tube. I've also learned, since having my no-cycling ankle problem which is now more or less done with, that we have interactive bus timetables. When I'm heading to my bus stop in the morning I can text its number and it will tell me when the next 10 or so buses are due. The most amazing thing is, it's very accurate. A real benefit. Ive also heard that the next iPhone will be able to drink coffee, so you can just leave in Starbucks drinking coffee and talking to your friends' iPhones while you go out and have a life.

PESO Rod Spanner stained glass
I won't bore you with the whole story, but the house I lived in the last two years of college got named The Rod Spanner, and I even drew up a coat of arms for it. I decided that I really liked that design, and about 8 years ago when we needed team shirts for the 25 hour enduro, I had it silkscreened on some T-shirts. Zab commissioned a friend to make me the crest in stained glass. I wasn't initially planning on photographing her along with the stained glass, and adjusting the lighting proved to be much more difficult than if I had just started over knowing what I wanted to do. Despite a plethora of mistakes^H^H^H^H^H^H^H lessons learned, I did get a few decent photos. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/8101962183/in/set-72157631803581942 -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: OT: Proper rabbit you numpties, innit!
Numpty is very much used in Scotland, Yer big numpty is an often heard term of gentle abuse. Chav is very much used, especially for Essex Boys and Girls (who are an archetype, not necessarily inhabitants of Essex). Burberry baseball caps form part of the uniform.

Re: html photo album generator
My gdgphoto.com website is next best thing to abandoned ... I'm not updating it anymore, haven't in some years now, and will let the GoDaddy.com account expire next February after I shift the domain names to another registrar. What I think I'll do is just open an account on SmugMug or similar, and then tweak their gallery stuff for presenting the photos, assign my domain name to it. Not as much control, but it will be good enough and they keep it up to date technically.

Thanks, everyone, for the comments. It's always interesting to hear what others bring to a photo. What drew me to this photo was the white car, dark interior and the black and white dog. The little bit of color in the background seems to echo the color in the dogs mouth and ears. Although I must admit, that was a coincidence.

Re: OT: slit camera novel approach
The easiest way to explain it is to describe how the film version works. The camera has a vertical slit the height of the frame. The film moves horizontally past the slit. Anything that is not moving will read as a streak, because from the film's perspective, it's always in the same position as the film moves. Anything that is moving is only recorded as it passes in front of the slit. For racing, it's used to see who passes the finish line first. The first person to cross is clearly shown, and each successive person to cross in front of the slit records farther to the side of the frame. I don't know how the digital version works, maybe a strip sensor that is sampled many times per second and composited in-camera. I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to do something like this for normal cameras and smartphones. It's really quite ingenious, and when you use it as an art tool, you get some striking imagery.

Re: PESO - Japanese girls go mobile
With the money allocated for anti-terrorism after 9/11/01, one of the things that was set up in the 'big' cities was a method of tracking where each coach was, as a method of identifying say, a stolen bus, or one hijacked, or blown up (loss of signal). Transportation dispatchers looked at this and thought, we can see where drivers are stopping for coffee, having a go in the back with a doll (better when cameras came along in the middle 2000s) allowing them evidence for punishment of drivers, or the passengers who flogged them, physically and mentally. (We have a secret button to call the cops, and they know exactly where we are! ) Come forward a few years and shifty engineers who knew about this developed the systems to which you refer. They were put in major transfer stations in 2005, when I left in 2007 they were replacing bus and train stop kiosks with first CRTs behind unbreakable glass [when that was shown to not be true] by those red LED reader boards with voice that announce when the next XX bus will arrive, late of course, and to have your fare ready. It is a misdemeanor to avoid paying the fare. We drivers, of course, were told we could only remind a scofflaw once, then shut up and drive. Saved a few drivers a bloody nose, I'm sure. So there you have it Bob. Transportation history from the inside. Wiki probably has a say on it, maybe different.

Re: OT: slit camera novel approach
Method used in many non-digital recce cameras going way back. Depending on speed, altitude, etc, BOTH the slit and the film move in a dance that realizes a long strip of exposed film. Sometimes the slit moves with but slower than the film, sometimes the slit may move opposite the direction of the film. Depends on the parameters mentioned above. Developed as a replacement for the cameras with vacuum platens that would hold the film, while the platen moved in the camera (opposite to the direction of flight) to allow sufficient light to expose the film while the ground was moving by under the plane. Then sweealthuk on to the next frame. Happened real fast. While serving, I learned (had to) the intricacies of the NCCS-4 system. (Navy Camera Control System - 4th gen). The pilot turned thumb wheels on the stick (jets man) to set the altitude, air speed, and another parameter I no longer can bring up. These inputs controlled a series of relays that chose voltages to send that set the rate of stepper motors in two boxes per camera station. Each box contained several of these stepper motors, connected to a lunch box sized train of stainless gears on shafts, which ultimately controlled the shutter speed, aperture, platen speed, or went platenless where the film just ran past the platen (focal plane) drawn by motors, also controlled by this system. Ain't analog wonderful? No, I don't have the schematics. Anymore. Post K-17, pre KH-12. if you know what I mean. On Oct 19, 2012, at 12:57 , Steven Desjardins wrote: Good explanation. I missed the idea that the film was moving and not the slit. I'm still having the beer.

The camera has a vertical slit the height of the frame. The film moves horizontally past the slit. Anything that is not moving will read as a streak, because from the film's perspective, it's always in the same position as the film moves. Anything that is moving is only recorded as it passes in front of the slit. For racing, it's used to see who passes the finish line first. The first person to cross is clearly shown, and each successive person to cross in front of the slit records farther to the side of the frame. I don't know how the digital version works, maybe a strip sensor that is sampled many times per second and composited in-camera. I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to do something like this for normal cameras and smartphones. It's really quite ingenious, and when you use it as an art tool, you get some striking imagery. The man and horses is my favorite of the set. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
