I call this pic YESTERDAY.

It has snowed almost 80 inches in Steamboat Springs in the past week.

Tragic.

Alan Turing is rightly regarded as the father of modern computer science. He was also gay, and suffered terribly at the hands of 1950s British intolerance. After being charged with gross indecency, he was forced to take oestrogen in an attempt to quosh his libido. The side effects included weight gain and the development of breasts - a dreadful result for a world class marathon runner. Shortly after this time, he committed suicide by eating an apple laced with cyanide.

The composition is influenced by the early renaissance painter Lucas Cranach, the elder from one of his many paintings of the garden of Eden.

I’ll be exhibiting this painting in shardcorner on saturday, so please come along and take a look - I’ll be happy to discuss any of the work on show.

Nothing quite like the natural look of a spray-on tan.

One of my favorite rodents, the long-tailed hopping mouse.

It's cool enough that it has a really long tail, but then it hops too.

Makes you wonder if the surface irregularities of the hyper-bubble represent extremely small differences in the initial implosion velocities/density of the individual shaped charges. Kind of like the early inflation of the universe. Notice the effect on the guy-wires out paces the hypersonic inflation of the bubble.

Actually...I have often wondered how they were able to get those shaped charges molded so well. I think they were a liquid form but still a pretty amazing job given how critical the shape of the imploding shock wave was.

I have the DVD where they show all the A and H bomb tests... not recomended before going to bed.
