 3ders.org - Italian designer 3D prints a gorgeous guitar inspired by HP Lovecraft groundbreaking art | 3D Printer News & 3D Printing News

Jun 26, 2015 | By Alec

While 3D printers have already previously proved that they can be used to manufacture instruments as well, few results were as beautiful as the amazing guitar you can see above. This gorgeous creation has been designed by the Italian Francesco Orrù, who hails from the Mediterranean island of Sardinia. While 3D printing a functioning guitar itself is already impressive, Francesco has added a second layer of difficulty by modelling the body after HP Lovecraft’s groundbreaking artwork.

If the name of Francesco Orrù sounds a bit familiar, that’s probably because you might know him as one of the in-house designers at MyMiniFactory.com, where he specializes in Zbrush digital sculpting. In the real world, he is also a master’s student at Kingston University and an avid guitar player. As he explains to 3ders.org, this creation came about out of a love for both of these specialisms. ‘I've decided to create this second guitar to carry on my collection and studies about 3D printing instruments. I also wanted to test a new model with a better electronic on it, mounting Seymour Duncan humbuckers this time instead of cheap Wilkinson,’ he explains, referring to an earlier project.

Using that previous project – a guitar modeled after HR Giger’s fascinating drawings -  as a base, much of the basic design work was already done. ‘The software that I've used was Zbrush during all the workflow, apart from an optimisation for the joints areas that my collegue Cemal Cetinkaya did in Rhino. He basically worked on the gaps and tolerances between each parts choosing a 0.3mm distance between the sockets and the joints,’ he explains.

But the real stuff began with the exterior, which was largely based on the two Lovecraft greats Godfish and the Necronomicon. ‘I've tried to emulate a scorpion’s pincers for the bottom part and I've sculpt couple of figures in relief inspired by Lovecraft Godfish story and the Necronomicon art cover. I've always liked bones structures and designs, in particular sculpts. So I added on a side a lion skull inspired from an album cover of a drone rock band called Earth,’ Francesco explains. ‘The remaining creature on the top right corner of the guitar body is another personal concept that I did couple of months ago for my second module at university in Computer Animation. It consist in a lion anatomy, apart from an alien design for the face and a dragon tail.’

This amazing creation was subsequently 3D printed in eight different parts: six for the body, 1 pick up cover, and 1 volume cover. 3D printed with a Delta Wasp 3D printer, it took about 80 hours to complete, with the central parts for the pick ups taking most of the time. ‘These two pieces need to be printed horizontally in order to keep the layers much stronger, as well as the holes for the screws that I've inserted in the middle to connect them. The pick up recesses were printed with 40% fill wheather the remaining parts with 20%, to assure a good compromise between quality and printing speed,’ Francesco says. The volume cover and the pick up cover were 3D printed separately using a Replicator 2.

If you would like to recreate this fantastic guitar for yourself, you can find all downloadable files here on myminifactory.com. To actually make some noise with it, you will need to purchase separate pick ups, a neck, a bridge, strings, volume and tone pots and knobs, a neck plate and a machine headset, but Francesco has helpfully provided links to all of these items on his page as well.

But the real question is: how does it sound? While Francesco hasn’t shared a video or anything yet, he is very positive himself: ‘About the sound I should say that the test went definitely well, because I've notice a drastic increase in term of sound quality. The humbuckers that I've ordered in Amazon were Seymour Duncan, a really well respected brand in the music industry,’ he says. ‘I've compared the sound of the HR Giger guitar with Wilkinson humbuckers with my last concept and the difference is quite clear for a good ear.’

 3ders.org - Eora 3D Scanner turns smartphone into a 3D scanner, now available on Kickstarter for $229 | 3D Printer News & 3D Printing News

Oct 20, 2015 | By Alec

With 3D printers now a common sight in most makerspaces throughout the world, the making community is increasingly discovering other devices to add to their creative capacity. 3D scanners are often top of the wishlist for their ability to make 3D printable digital models in a flash. While several affordable scanners are currently in developed, few have caught our eye as strongly as the Eora 3D Scanner. Announced a while ago, this Australian high quality, low cost add-on for iPhones and Android is now making its debut on Kickstarter.

This interesting device is being developed by three young Australian entrepreneurs, Rahul Koduri, Richard Boers and Asfand Khan, for the same reason that most of us avoid 3D scanners entirely: the costs involved. Faced with a $20,000 bill for a 3D scanner, they devised a plan for building their own iPhone-powered 3D scanner that could be built and sold to others like them for significantly less.

As the founders explained, they wanted to combine all the qualities found in those expensive models, but packaged in something ordinary makers can afford. ‘We considered every element that defined professional 3D scanners - the processors, cameras, build quality, turntable design, projected light scanners and laser based scanners,’ they say. ‘Sure, there are all kinds of 3D scanners today -- from projected light scanners that connect via a tablet that are handheld and fast, to traditional flat-bed/turntable scanners that are too often slow and stationary -- but none are accurate, unless you have $15,000 to spend. So we challenged ourselves to design and engineer a 3D scanner that not only was extremely precise and accurate but also fast, portable and affordable.’

The medium for this unlikely 3D scanner was sitting in their pockets all this time, and like so many apps before them, they harnessed the capacity of a quality smartphone and combined it with green laser technology. The result? A small add-on for your phone that can make scans up to a precision of sub-100 microns, a truly amazing level for a portable scanner. ‘Scan up to a range of 1 meter (3 feet). Based on a typical smartphone camera's Field Of View this lets you capture an incredible 1 square meter (3 feet X 3 feet) in one scan. For objects that are larger, you can take multiple scans and stitch them in-app or on compatible desktop software. A 1/4" - 20 UNC thread is included in the bottom for easy mounting on tripods,’ they say. To accommodate users, the Eora 3D is also compatible with both iOS and Android, connecting via Bluetooth 4.0 and using a free app.

But the most remarkable feature surely must be the green lasers. If you’ve ever seen a 3D scanner in action, you’ll know that red lasers are commonly used. ‘But digital camera CMOS sensors (like our eyes) are twice as sensitive to the green spectrum as they are to red. (It's how we evolved to better spot predators in the brush.) This means you can scan in a variety of lightning conditions, even outdoors,’ the makers explain. ‘A green laser costs almost three times as much as a standard red laser. But when you have a smartphone that does all the heavy lifting, it allows us to save cost on the camera and processor and instead invest more in other areas like the laser optics and powerful algorithms for the app.’ That means that the Eora 3D is a particularly powerful, yet affordable scanner. It also doesn’t require a turntable because it stiches scans together to create a full model.

Finally, the smartphone nature of this scanning solution means it’s also simple in use, user-friendly and comes with an Library and dropbox. ‘With Dropbox integration built-in, you can load your existing 3D models or share the ones you have scanned. You can import your existing 3D models (.ply, .obj, and .stl) and with Dropbox integration you can sync your 3D models across all your devices,’ they say. You can even send them to 3D Hubs or Shapeways for 3D printing, if you’d like.

In short, the Eora 3D is packed with interesting and easy-to-use features, and will be a perfect addition to any maker’s arsenal. What’s more, it only costs $229 on Kickstarter, making this one of the most affordable scanners we know of.

5th Planet Games strives to be the most community-focused mobile and browser based game company in the world.

We believe in working with passionate people, creating healthy communities, and forging legendary experiences.

Our Games

Robert Winkler, CEO // aka Felendis

Rob co-founded 5th Planet Games as the beginning of Phases 3 and 4 in his plans of world domination. Phase 3 consists of teaching to populous survival and diplomacy training through Halo: Reach and Magic: The Gathering, both of which are mandatory to learn at the company. Phase 4 is leadership, negotiation and etiquette training through required viewings of educational films such as "Office Space", "Tommy Boy", "Spaceballs", etc. Phase 5 is still 'Coming Soon!'. He hopes to be more like Grune when he grows up.

Michael Barnett // aka Ash

Mike was one of the first hires for 5th Planet, and has the longest tenure. He also has the longest streak of wearing a baseball hat, approaching five years. So, keeping our engineering team operating at full speed, dominating servers and tech stuff, or rocking an awesome hat, Mike is kind of a big deal!

Bernard Decrane // aka Mouse

Dwelling high within the mountains overlooking the 5th Planet Games Office lived a Dwarven clan with a lowly population, one such Dwarf resident was Bernard, who defended his clan from foes such as "Retail" and "Cable Customer Support Representative", after defeating these opponents in deadly combat, (and wrangling some goats along the way) he descended from the mountains to make his new home within the dark recesses of the 5th Planet Games Office's cave system, where he now digs for gems, answers the occasional community question and fends off the worshipers of Nurgle.

Jeff Yoon // aka Jeffy

After roaming the streets of LA for a few years with a sign on his neck that said, "I will draw and paint for food", Jeff was picked up by the 5th Planet Games team. For some reason, they made him a lead artist/art director, and he is very thankful that he can now have warm meals and a cozy bed to sleep in.

Lenzy Schneider // aka Schnzy

Schnzy has swapped careers a few times, starting with the US army, and then entering the world of graphic design. But it was a lifelong love of games that led him to 5pg where he now serves as a game designer putting his passions to use and making awesome games!

Ryan Harbert // aka RyanSMASH

In his teen years, Ryan resided in the Kingdom of Potatoes. A specialist in security of the land, he fended off wanderers and thieves. He was given a chance in demolitions, where he endured unending blasting from the enemy. He quickly grew to an expert in the field, surpassing all competition, but found his true passions pointed towards the mythical 5th Planet. After a long journey, he arrived and began an epic apprenticeship, learning tricks of the trade that residents of 5th Planet have mastered.

Keith Wells // aka Flynn

Keith spent his formative years designing the palaces of emperors and intergalactic house scions before spending nearly a decade designing the soundscapes of holodecks across the galaxy. Later, perceiving the move of humanity's data into the magellanic clouds of open space, another avenue was embarked upon to become a wrangler of this data and the transition to 5th Planet was made.
Now, his dreams of "All your data are belong to me" are beginning to crystalize, and soon the truth of that plight will be realized by others… Soon.

Eve Milan // aka Punch

Behold mortal: Eve. Mother (and destroyer) of worlds. Mistress of time (and death). Slayer of demons (and gods). Beautiful and terrifying, she walks among us. Some day soon, the quiet of normality will fade and she will again find herself striding the battlefield, dispatching our enemies with crushing blows from each of her mighty arms.

Keith Dunng // aka Toymaker

The Toymaker awoke, arising in a vast expanse of stillness. The outlandish flora, fauna, and air all hung as if frozen in time. His mission? To restore movement to this world. After a few days and many iterations, his mission was nearly complete with the world moving in almost perfect unison. Only an ancient gateway remained unfinished. Upon breathing life into it, the gateway opened and began inhaling the world he had just completed. It sucked up the Toymaker, where he tumbled through a black nothingness until he lost conciousness.
The Toymaker awoke, arising in a vast expanse of stillness...

Brian Foulk // aka Kodiak

Kodiak burst into the offices of 5th Planet Games, and refused to budge when told he was not allowed to sleep there. Now he busies himself with working hard on bettering all 5th Planet-y things and perfecting bear puns.

Norris Eldridge // aka Helmsman

A man of few words, not much is known of Helmsman. Though it is common belief that he was raised in the dark depths of Majora Mask's dungeons, surviving weeks on end on with nothing but meager rations of Chips Ahoy and Kraft Macaroni & Cheese. While sightings of Helmsman are rare, he can sometimes be found scavenging for food in the 5PG breakroom.

Megan Warmerdam // aka Gladiatrix

Everyone knows the arenas of West Kruna can be a terrifying and violent place. No one knows this more than a former master of coin, in the stands of the colosseum. Keeping track of wagers and fees dutifully amongst the crowd, she never expected to be bumped off of her post and into the arena itself.
After whittling down a few champions of the Colosseum, the now Gladiatrix found herself in an exciting new line of work.

Miles Deponty // aka Tails

Having grown up with a controller in hand, Tails followed his passion for games, creating, helping, and bringing joy to others. After a few years stay at an Art Institute he was finally accepted as a trained scholar. There were plenty of orcs and goblins slayed in the process and using his knowledge and +15 charisma, he was able to persuade Felendis to let him join the 5PG ranks.

Aryn Lockhart // aka MysticMerc

MysticMerc has spent his years adventuring through an expansive amount of worlds. The last few years finding faults and holes in the very fabric of many of them notifying their creators of such flaws. Now while obtaining knowledge in the art of creation himself has found himself at the 5th Planet, creators of exciting and new worlds, to lend his expertise.

David Newel // aka FileNotFound

Armed with a degree of Computer Science knowledge and years experience with arcane, modern languages of Java, Ruby, and C#, the lowly wanderer crawled along the scorched wastes created from his own typed word. Years before, he dug into the mad scrawlings of other programmers before at previous companies longstanding, sometimes delving into the ancient layers of "legacy code". In that journey, he has seen Code-thulu several times with his own eyes and each time gone madder with the revelation... :FHTAGN
Now David works here at 5th Planet Games!

Affordable Korean Skincare | Face Masks 101

If you’ve been following me for awhile, then you know I am obsessed with Korean Beauty — specifically skincare. The obsession began when we relocated to South Korea and it started all with sheet masks, scrubs, and cleansers. It’s now fully developed into face masks, BHAs/AHAs, essences, and bouncy toners. Am I the only person who flicks their cheeks to check their moisture levels??? Don’t judge, it’s seriously a thing!

My introduction to buying Korean skincare was super simple. I walked into a popular road-shop (glorified drug store) pinpointed my issue (dry/dull skin) and the rep pointed me to the product and it was super easy. So easy, that I quickly went from 2 sheet masks to an overflowing bathroom vanity filled with road-shop brands like SKINFOOD.

Now admittedly, the ingredients are not always on the same level as luxury brands, but these shops have some of the best dupes, their budget friendly, and easily accessible. Which in hindsight is a major plus, because I am the queen of confusion (still am!) as I have hauled tons of product in my quest to find my holy grails.

Now really quickly, I do want to share my top Korean road-shop brands and to be honest I have a bad habit of buying the same products over & over from these shops — Mostly because these essentials get me through life in Korea.

In Myeong-Dong playing tourist with Aisha (this is the day The Face Shop got all of my money!) Annnd, jic you were wondering… Black Women x Korean Skincare = YES!

Favorite Korean Road-Shop Brands:

  • Innisfree: Eco-friendly, locally sourced from the beautiful Jeju Island, and dermatologist recommended for sensitive skin. I find that have gentle cleansers (but find they can be a bit drying) but I do appreciate that the company focuses on sustainability and sells organic products.
  • SKINFOOD: “You are what you eat.” Healthy skin starts with food is the motto of SKINFOOD and they focus on using high-quality food ingredients. I really enjoy their sheet masks, scrubs, and I’m quite keen to try their hair products next. Note: There can be an issue for those with food allergies (I’m allergic to Oranges!), so be sure to read the packaging!
  • Missha: This shop is always packed, which could be due to the insane popularity of their famous dupe — the Time Revolution First Treatment Essence (Bought it a few weeks ago and I like it so far!). I like to play in their makeup section and I enjoy testing out the creams & pore masks. Warning — this shop can easily slip from affordable to expensive after buying a few products…. but it might be worth it!
  • The Face Shop: This glam shop is always packed but I find they have the BEST customer service. I love their creams, primers, and eyeliners. I’m not keen on the last mascara, I bought but I’m hard to please when it comes to my eyes.
  • Aritaum: The first store I bought skincare from, so they’ll always have a spot in my heart. I’ve only bought sheet masks, nail polish, and eyeshadows from them. But I’m anxious to try out IOPE & Laneige.
  • Olive Young & Watsons & LOHBs: Now these are true drug store as they sell a variety of skincare/beauty (budget & luxe) as well as products like COSRX, NEOGEN, & Dr. Jart which are usually sold in concept stores or only online.

So, are you getting excited about Korean Skincare? I hope the answer is yes because I have more for you!

I finally filmed my highly requested Affordable Korean Skincare video, where I’m sharing my Face Masks 101.

I’ve linked the video down below, so go ahead and press play, enjoy. ^_^

    I heard that avocado on the skin is really great. I really would love to try a few of the items you mentioned.

  2. Shelley @Travel-Stained February 9, 2017 / 3:25 am

    Korean skincare really is some of the best quality at an amazing price point. If you’re willing to spend a bit more, I love Sum37 (a fermented skincare line). Sum means “breath” in Korean, and 37 degrees is the perfect temp for fermentation. AND have you tried a Korean facial yet? Once you do, you’ll never go back!! 🙂

Aadhaar may soon replace roll numbers

Students may soon end up using Aadhaar numbers instead of their roll numbers for examinations going by a circular from the Department of School Education and Literacy under the Union Ministry of Human Resource Development.

Despite the Supreme Court verdict that Aadhaar card should not be made mandatory to get government subsidies, the MHRD is pushing all State governments to ensure that all school students apply for Aadhaar. Based on a letter issued by MHRD, the State Education Department on Monday issued a notice to its officials directing them to order heads of government and aided schools in Karnataka to ensure students apply for an Aadhaar by the end of August.

Earlier, the Director of Department of School Education and Literacy wrote to the Secretary of Primary and Secondary Education, Karnataka, requesting the State government to implement Aadhaar among students. The letter, a copy of which is available with The Hindu , reads, “Enrolment of students with Aadhaar should also be done. Department (State Education) may also explore the possibility of using Aadhaar as a proxy roll number for (students) appearing in examinations.”

The department plans to link the Aadhaar number to the State government’s ambitious ‘Hejje Gurutu’ project to provide a 17-digit code to all students from Class 1 to 10 in an effort to streamline academic performance. Sources said that this would help weed out duplicate admissions and also ensure that children do not drop out.

However, State Education Department officials say that although they would not deny admissions to those without Aadhaar or link Aadhaar with incentives, they were “forced” to take up this step and get students to enrol based on the MHRD directions. B.T. Venkatesh, human rights advocate and former special public prosecutor, said that the move is against the Supreme Court order that Aadhaar can not be made mandatory to avail of government subsidies. “Although the government is saying it will not be linked to any service, it is still pushing Aadhaar, which is a gross violation,” he said.

The Commissioner of Public Instruction had issued a circular last month urging all Education Department employees, including teachers and non-teaching staff of aided and government schools, to mandatorily provide their Aadhaar details to link it to their salary accounts.

Musically Colin Firth

On KCRW’s Guest DJ Project, Colin Firth talks about music that inspired him over the years. Featuring T Rex, Miles Davis, Abel Korzeniowski, Massive Attack and The White Stripes. Listen to the interview

Anne Litt: Do you listen to music to prepare for a role, is that part of your process?

Colin Firth: It can be. I have to say, another piece I was sorely tempted to pick, was “A Single Man,” Abel Korzeniowski. He made such an impact on that film. And I think I got an awful lot of acting credit for what was in fact a music cue from him.

Anne Litt: That was your co-star.

Colin Firth: The cello. There all these sort of clichés about it being the sound of the soul, the voice of the soul. All those strings that he used. He uses them in such a versatile way that sometimes I’m not quite sure what’s a cello and what’s a viola.
But they ache. And I find it almost painful to listen to, actually, because that character has been someone who’s followed me around quite a bit. It might have been the piece where George dies, and Jim comes and gives him a kiss. And I think it’s called “And Just Like That.” And it’s such a gentle and humane sound.

When I met Abel, and I met him only very briefly, he echoed what I felt. Which was that, as far as he was concerned, it was a communication between us as well. He based it on what I was doing. I’ve never felt so completely that the music of the film conforms to what I felt or thought at the time.
It was perfect harmony between those two things. And his other work I’ve checked out, since “An Angel in a Krakow,” which is absolutely beautiful. So I think he really is one of the finest composers we have. And as Tom Ford says, he’ll never be able to afford him again.

3 Responses to Musically Colin Firth

  1. This soundtrack is one of the single greatest compilations of composed music I have ever listened to. I listen to the soundtrack every day and every piece breaks my heart again and again. It completely made the film and influenced me to explore a genre of music I thought I would never enjoy.

  2. Саундтрек “A Single Man” – это нечто удивительное, трепетное и печальное, глубокое и пронзительное. Невероятное просто чудо. Абель, спасибо!

  3. Really like this soundtrack. It’s the most beautiful soundtrack I’ve ever listened. Thanks a lot for bringing us such good music.

A Better Way

Who should be in power?

We have already said in this website that a nation's health, prosperity and ultimate destiny are the result of the accumulative wisdom of all the individuals of that nation. Therefore from this it is very clear that a country's greatest asset, or greatest liability, is the quality of the individuals that make up that nation. Furthermore, we would go as far as to say, that the whole purpose of having a nation is to produce people of the highest quality and wisdom that it can.

That there is an ultimate purpose to government, is directly linked to there being an ultimate purpose to life, and this being so, it seems far more than reasonable to make arrangements such that those people who assume positions of authority over the lives of millions of people, should as a prime qualification for their office, know exactly what that purpose is. Otherwise the term 'blind leading the blind' comes readily to mind.

Whether the ultimate purpose of life is to get to heaven; to attain enlightenment; to evolve; or just to be enjoyed as much as possible; the bottom line is that whichever of these it is, they are all served best by cultivating good qualities in people as the primary objective over and above any other interest. Isn't it true to say, that the single most important element affecting the quality of our lives, is the quality of the people that surround us on a daily basis? This is very easily illustrated, by looking at a typical London housing estate. When these estates are first built, they are generally speaking of a pretty good quality. What happens to them after that depends directly on the quality of the people who move in. If people move in who are dirty, antisocial, disrespectful of other people and property, then the estate soon deteriorates and even becomes dangerous. If however, the people who move in are the sort of people who like to keep their doorsteps swept and polished, hang out baskets of flowers and are nice to each other, then the quality of life on that estate is going to be much better. All aspects of our lives are affected by the people around us, so even from the point of view of improving the quality of life, cultivating good qualities in people is still the primary objective.

This is nowhere more important than in regard to the people who run the country and are in charge of our affairs. If the people who run a country are only interested in lining their own pockets at the expense of the health, happiness and well-being of the population then their (lack of) quality is going to directly affect the quality of life of the people of that country. If the people who run the country understand that the population of that country have to be free to do certain things in order for them to be healthy, happy and prosperous, and endeavour to encourage and help them to do those things, then the quality of those people is going to directly affect the quality of life and progress of the population of that country.

So the people who should be in power are those that really know what life is all about and who understand what truly constitutes the best interest of the population of that country, and care enough to see that that best interest is served over and above any other consideration. They should be educated, tested and qualified in these things so that only truly genuine candidates with real authority are able to assume the highest offices of government.

  What's wrong with democracy?
  What can be done to the House of Lords?
  A program of health, happiness and prosperity

Thanks for sharing the message, StarMessenger. You are not alone in getting this information, so don't feel alone ever. I too am aware of the sinister forces about us, and what they plan for humankind. Will they be successful in their efforts? I do not think they will. I think humanity will come together in love and stop this cold. I know this is a lot to ask, for there is a great deal of hatred in the world, and a great many differences in "beliefs" held by some, and "anger," and "fears" held by others. Every decision a person makes in their live is based on one of to emotions. There is no "grey area" here, it is simply one or the other.
Love or Fear.
Think about this next time you have to make a decision, is it based on Love, or Fear? Be well, friend.

I just posted this in another forum earlier today, which I think is applicable to this thread and it's line of inquiry. It has to do with the cosmologically unique earth-moon-sun relationship, and the Great Pyramid as the measure of the diameter of the earth, and the moon. Please feel free to follow the thread in terms of how this post came about to find out more..

The moon is also responsible for dynamic equilibrium balancing of the earth's wobble and tilt responsible for the seasons and the cycle of life, including the process of human fertilization and gestation. In short the moon-earth-sun relationship is the cause of life on earth as we enjoy it today, including the presence of liquid water over 90% of the earth's surface.

The full moon also mimics the sun, by rising at night, and by chasing the sun on a monthly basis such that at opposite winter/summer solstices the full moon rises at a degree equidistant to due north of that of the rising sun, and yet the moon orbits the earth and the earth, the sun.

Such things are only significant however, to an earth-based, sentient observer. As you yourself said

Originally posted by ignorant_ape

The only counter argument is fluke/coincidence, and yet any investigative study will show that the earth-moon-sun relationship is perfectly configured in favor of life.

There's a lot more data than this too some of which reveals that something very unusual took place during the formation of the earth whereby presently held theories of moon formation must be discarded ie: the double-whack theory by unknown rogue planetoid for example.

The main point of this little thesis, aside from the Jesus bit with his use of a lunar eclipse as some sort of spiritual-cosmic theodolite (lens), resides in our ability to look at effects from first causes and recognize intelligent design.

You can argue coincidence or random happenstance if you like, but it's a rather poor argument in the face of all the evidence and data to the contrary which points to a comic evolutionary process intentionally directed towards life, including life as we know it, and even human life. And if by design then it was by anticipation from the very beginning of time and space with the present outcome and effect enfolded in the originating cause, and that's not only intelligent, but what I call super-intelligent or infinitely intelligent.

But wait there's more..

In the diagram above, the big triangle is the same proportion and angle of the Great Pyramid, with its base angles at 51 degrees 51 minutes. If you bisect this triangle and assign a value of 1 to each base, then the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) equals phi (1.618..) and the perpendicular side equals the square root of phi. And that’s not all. A circle is drawn with it’s centre and diameter the same as the base of the large triangle. This represents the circumference of the earth. A square is then drawn to touch the outside of the earth circle. A second circle is then drawn around the first one, with its circumference equal to the perimeter of the square. (The squaring of the circle.)

This new circle will actually pass exactly through the apex of the pyramid. And now the “wow”: A circle drawn with its centre at the apex of the pyramid and its radius just long enough to touch the earth circle, will have the circumference of the moon! Neat, huh! And the small triangle formed by the moon and the earth square will be a perfect 345 triangle

Yes, very interesting. Now that you have given us even more enlightenment on the geometry and math of the pyramids would you venture an opinion on its meaning? Or, could you relate to my original hypothesis that the pyramids indicate 'alien' contact; Or is the mathematical paradigm reflective of ancient Egypt? - And if not what is your opinion as to why its [the pyramids] construction? Why produce a geometrical/mathematical/cosmological structure of such a size? Just an exercise in architectural construction - a very expensive tomb for the Pharaohs?

You are not seriously suggesting guys that the pyramids of Gyza were build by people that only had ropes; pulleys, ramps, and possibly slid logs underneath slabs of stone etc...
. If you have ever seen the Pyramids of Gyza close up you may think again. From the outside yes it looks somewhat like rubble but from the inside the precision is remarkable.

So all of you are telling me that 40 000 people (very low estimate) used advanced tools to build pyramids and all those tools disappeared? Not one was buried somewhere in the sand? No one has yet to explain any theory on how the extraordinary properties are constructed, all theories involving "humans built it" ends with "unlikely, no scientific proof" In other words, we don't know how we built it. Simple as that.

Let me quote you again

did you even do research?

Do people need to be spoon fed the links to the research for them to find the facts themselves?

Did you even read that same paragraph where I listed all the facts about the pyramid?

Yes, I saw a video and your ability to soak up whats on screen.

Regarding the post about ancients assisting in construction, I think that is more likely than simply humans sitting around and figuring out properties of Earth and putting it on a Pyramid with electrical signals.

Why cant Humans be ancient? If the Ancients arent human what are they?

Seriously, stop arguing with me with links that contradict your point.

I ask for a bit of clarification on your part, after viewing your YouTube link.

I am seriously not arguing or have I posted any links, I am asking question based on what you post, you call them facts.

This is why I ask to back up your facts or at least show us how you concluded to such by sharing your research you ask others if they have done after giving their opinions.

We evolved from apes and developed into mathematical, astronomical, geophysical and spiritual geniuses, capable of building monuments and structures visible from space, only to become stone throwing barbarians again. Yeah right

So what happened in between? Where did the people and the knowledge they held, go? The history we're told and supposed to accept, is so convoluted, it's sad. Someone knows the truth, and withholding it is a crime that has no punishment sever enough to do it justice.

I think the pyramid was constructed as a reflection of the architectural design (by God) of the earth-moon-sun system, and as an instrument of initiation into the ancient mysteries of which the high priests and king (pharaoh) formed the inner circle of the highest adepts. Plato was instructed by the high priests of Egypt, as was Pythagoras, so in many ways Western Civilization emanates from the pyramids. It's a symbol of God's handiwork in the creation of the earth, and man, but it also gave them something to DO, something to labor over, not slave labor, but as a labor of love, and recent archaeological evidence shows that the workers were well cared for and formed a vast and vibrant community.

The ancients appear to have received instruction from a highly advanced being, but it's entirely possible that the knowledge and understanding came about through the application of advanced ancient sciences, including astronomy and engineering, math, trigonometry etc. We must remember that they had all the time in the world to observe the phenomenal world, from which certain conclusions were drawn and ancient knowledge, formed.

The pyramid is the measure of the world, and for their civilization and scientific understanding it was built as a center of the world with the Nile river an earthly reflection of the Milky Way.

As above, so below.

It was their way of building heaven on earth and employing the knowledge as the capstone of a stable and unified society and civilization which lasted many 1000's of years.

There are structures inside the pyramids which reveals rites of passage and initiation.

IMHO, it's an awesome feat of ancient science and technology, nothing more. Those stones were either moved using science and engineering (leverage) or they were poured in place, but I don't think UFO's floated them into place, no.

Edit to add: I think the Great Pyramid is best thought of as a great ancient theodolite or lens who's purpose was to magnify a cosmological principal of design and construction for the purpose of encoding knowledge and then realizing spiritual growth and progress from generation to generation, so as to form the basis and foundation of the process of civilization. So it was a tool of initiation into the ancient mysteries, and it may even have contained embedded within itself certain resonant properties like the funneling of cosmic rays or something like that so that the initiation rites performed in it's inner chambers might also harness an evolutionary principal with the aim being to turn men into Godmen or divine beings.

The question I asked Turkenstein remains unanswered by Turkenstein, and since, as you previously stated, you do not know what he was talking about, I can't really consider your youtube video post the answer. Nevertheless I watched enough of it to know how old it was and what it was about. Brought back grade school memories of trying to preserve a piece of fruit under a pyramid dome.

Also, and Harte may correct me if I'm wrong, I believe the work was done not by slave labor, but rather skilled tradesmen using the appropriate tools for the job over a reasonable period of time.

For the fellow who asked about the math and the face on Mars etc. He speaks to it in a Q and A on his site. Here it is:

From: Mark
Subject: Seconds of Arc

Reading your page with great interest I wonder how or where you are getting these very precise coordinates from. The example regarding Stonehenge is fascinating but you use tiny fractions of an arc second in your GPV calculations. Where do these numbers originate?

When talking about 0.3529411 of an arc second you are defining a point which I suspect is smaller than a pea and it is not possible to achieve this accuracy with GPS or Ordnance Survey Maps, navigation charts, etc. Do these numbers after the decimal point have to be created by you in order to reach a total ( in this case 21,600) or have I missed something? This is not a cynical enquiry, I am trying to understand your system more fully.

I think you have it all backwards. True enough, we cannot calculate GPS positions out to 7 or 8 decimal positions in terms of seconds of arc (unless we get into micrometers - which too few know how to use anymore).

Your concern is with Stonehenge's 21,600 - which it SHOWS.

Its 360-degree plan represents the earth sphere and the 60 perimeter stones convey the language (60 seconds = 60 minutes = 60 degrees) of latitude/longitude.

Somewhere in the Matrix is a site which must explain it.

Purge the ancient for a monument showing both the numbers 60 and 360.

Up pops Stonehenge at 51° 10' = 42.35" of latitude which CAN be verified on a large scale government topographical map.

The grid number shown by the site (21, 600) divides down through the 51 degrees and 10 minutes to 42.35294117 seconds, hence the map finds the site - dead on.

All those extra decimal places serve only to true up the site's position on the MATH side of the search which is, in fact, where Stonehenge centers itself. If all these decimal places serve to irritate, drop all but the first two. The message will get through anyway. The artifact at 21,600 has been found.

It's the same with the Mars Face. A circular ground plan (360°) with FOUR features (2 eyes, a nose and a mouth). 360 x 4 = 1440. But that's not where it is. Then too, the Great Pyramid. Four 90° corners and 4 sides...

4 x 90 = (360) x 4 = 1440.

Now we know that the Great Pyramid models the pi ratio (see page 21 of my Whispers From Time-I). Big puzzle...

Until we go inside the pyramid where we find that its passageways up and down are at an angle of 26° 18' 09.66", hence:

26° x 18' x 09.66" = 4520.88 - which is just a whisker away from the combination of 1440 (Great Pyramid's basic form) and PI which it models in 3-D...

1440 x PI = 4523.89342115

This allows us to true up inclines within the pyramid proper:

4523.89342115 : 26° : 18' = 09.66643893405"

in order to achieve the 1440-pi MODELED by the pyramid.

What's so important about this particular quantity? Good food for mathematicians to ponder perhaps, but it can likewise do this...

4523.89342115 : 41° : 11' = 10.0308058l" North

Again, drop the extra numbers if you like, but the message got through anyway because this is where someone left us that Face over on Mars - at 1440-pi, hence its l440 TIMES pi - and the parallel crosses right over its NOSE.

My next Newsletter (#72) will take a closer look at the meaning. Thanks.

So this is the basis of your erroneous belief, then.

Sorry, but not a single block is precisely fitted. 99% of the Great Pyramid is slapped together without regard for fit.

The AE's didn't even bother to level the courses of stone, correcting their level every tenth or fifteenth course.

Huge voids exist behind the stone, in which we can see dumped gtobs of mortar, sand and rock debris.

You really ought to learn a little about the structure before pronouncing it perfect.

Here David Childress proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the blocks are not perfectly square while at the same time exclaiming that they are square. It's some koind of ancient alien mind game.

The Great pyramid of Cheops by both encoding the unique earth-moon-sun cosmological configuration and then orienting it in such a way that it becomes a calendar at all levels including the rising sun through the precession of the equinox, and what you have is a massive pyramid (with it's own center of gravity), not just at the center of the earth, but the surrounding cosmos the whole of which was made by design in order so that experience might be possible, with mankind joining the circle, so quite literally, within the shafts and chambers of the pyramid resides the center of the universe, and it's from that point in the midst of it all that the instruction was given for initiation rites and ceremonies. So the pyramid's a tool of alchemy, at a variety of levels, with infinite mirroring self referential geometrical relationships perfectly framed by the cosmos as a whole.

It would not surprise me in the least therefore, to get the appropriate "vibe" and evolutionary energy flowing, if the pyramid wasn't also a torsion chamber designed to harness and redirect cosmic rays according to what is now known as the Cygnus [X-3] Mystery. So while they mirror Orion's belt, that's just a reference to their own orientation to the Nile River/Milky Way. That they point, cosmologically, to Cygnus X3 is the key to understanding their function as an evolutionary tool of cosmic alchemy.

Solving the Mysteries of Enigmatic Binary Star System Cygnus X-3, Science News

So basically they liked to get high in there, and emerge as transformed human beings in the process of some sort of evolutionary transumation based and founded on the things they learned and experienced during the initiation rites and ceremonies, some of which were harrowing, requiring them to swim to their apparent death under a wall, only to emerge just in time in a cavity with air - stuff like that, baptism, death and resurrection rituals all designed with a spiritual aim in mind, and a greater realization to be had unto ...epiphany.

That's what they were for. I am convinced of it.

A paradigm shifting, multidimensional, cosmological initiation chamber of encoded knowledge and understanding both of the cosmos and man's place in it as the evolutionary form and mirror image reflection of none other than God the first father and designer who made it all.

But somewhere along the line they lost their way, and I guess that's when God decided to switch sides and perform his own great work relative to their folly and arrogance..

So contrary to popular belief, that the pyramid was a tomb, I think that as soon as one of their Pharaohs went and buried himself in there in a quest for eternal life, that the allegory was ruined as an inter-generational phenomenon, so he committed the cardinal sin by failing to recognize the meaning and significance of the allegory, and literalizing it in the name of a superstition, because once you have a body in the King's chamber, then it's um... stuffed.

That was a big mistake I think, when it was turned into a tomb, which suggests perhaps that their own appropriation of it's true meaning and significance and purpose at some point got squed and bent out of shape once ancient science took on too heavy of a religious overtone which only shows that some things never change, and that people are fickle and even, and even and especially Kings themselves, prone to folly, ignorance and superstitious nonsense.

Episode 209 – Lost Forty Brewing

lost forty

Unknown to most of us Midwesterners but regarded highly in their native Arkansas, Lost Forty Brewing is canning up some stellar takes on a wide variety of styles. We taste five beers from this Little Rock-based brewery thanks to listener Chris Butler. These extremely tasty beers quickly chuck us over the hill and into one of the most far-fetched game ideas Ryan has ever had, in addition to a real rogue’s gallery of diversions: the worst way to ruin your phone, the problem with Spencer’s Gifts, weird sleepovers, the California Raisins, a controversial statement on convertible pants, and a Brazilian butt mystery. #BossBabyisLife

Be Mom Strong

Be Mom Strong: free fitness program w support & guidance from personal trainer @bemomstrong #bemomstrong
Some of you may be curious how I've been doing with all my fitness goals since becoming pregnant. You wouldn't be completely off base to think I set a lot of those to the side for the time being. I've definitely allowed myself to indulge in some extra treats with the "but I'm pregnant" mentality. Same goes for letting my regular exercise routine go to the way side.

Fortunately, thanks to some great habits I picked up through Shaklee, I'm getting through this pregnancy a whole lot healthier than my last two. It's taken me 20 weeks to gain the amount of weight I've normally put on in my first trimester alone. (You can imagine the related health issues I dealt with as a result of gaining so much weight so quickly!) This time, I'm indulging some, but being mindful of what I'm indulging in, how much, and how often. I'm trying to stay active, and I've genuinely referenced this guest post by Emma along the way. I even bought myself a maternity belt so I can get back into running (this belly DOES NOT want to stay put on runs, and it is SO uncomfortable to put up with). Unfortunately, I haven't gotten the chance to put it to the test, what with the rain and snow. But I promise to hang up the excuses before too long!

So if you're like me, and looking for some new exercise routines, here's something for you to do: check out Emma's new venture - Be Mom Strong. Trust me, it's not just for moms. It is, however, an excellent resource for busy people wanting to stay active and fit. It is also a great resource for people NOT wanting to spend a lot of money.

Along with fellow certified personal trainer and nutritional specialist, Caitlin, Emma shows you how to do real workouts with a real mom's schedule. Both ladies are even pregnant (CONGRATULATIONS, ladies!). All you have to do is subscribe to their YouTube channel, and you will get FREE workouts delivered to your inbox on a regular basis. Follow their Facebook page, and interact with these personal trainers WHENEVER YOU NEED THEM. They also have a Twitter account and an Instagram account you need to check out. And the very best part? You can get their top-notch advice and instruction for absolutely no charge!

Still need a reason to Be Mom Strong? Check out this video by Emma:

What does it mean to you to be "mom strong"? What are some goals you have as a mom or parent - fitness related or otherwise?

I was absolutely NOT compensated for this post. I just believe in what Emma is doing. You know that I didn't grow up with strong role models in my home for keeping a fit & healthy lifestyle, so I have enormous love and respect for what these ladies are working to accomplish. Your health is so very important, but no one can do the work for you. These ladies can help, though.

Festival of Media Asia Pacific Unveils Final 2015 Event Agenda

SINGAPORE, Mar 17, 2015 - (ACN Newswire) - The Festival of Media Asia Pacific today announced its final agenda, exploring the core issues that drive the media landscape across the region, from social and mobile, TV and programmatic, to talent and training. Taking place from 22 - 24 March 2015 at the Capella Singapore, Sentosa, the Festival of Media Asia Pacific 2015 will attract over 700 media leaders from across 22 countries for three days of invaluable networking, insightful speaker sessions, and celebration of great work.

Charlie Crowe, Founder of Festival of Media and Chairman of C Squared said, "We've identified some of the most critical issues faced by the media industry in Asia Pacific and brought in a diverse range of talented speakers, including a larger proportion of women, to address and debate these topics. The agenda emphasizes the unique aspects of different Asian markets as well as highlights industry challenges like talent development and innovation. I'm sure that we'll all come away from the event with a host of new ideas, changed perspectives and hopefully quite a few new friends."

This year's event will feature spotlight sessions on five of Asia Pacific's fastest emerging economies including Malaysia, China, Philippines, India, and Indonesia. True to its reputation of bringing in the most forward-thinking sessions, the event will feature Google Singapore's Managing Director, Joanna Flint, in a session that examines Asia Pacific's role as a leader in digital media innovation, creativity and in shaping the global media landscape. In a separate session, Huawei's Chief Marketing Officer, Jeffrey Yang will join Celia Tong, CMO and China President of the iClick Group, to discuss the key drivers and trends of China's telecommunications industry and the biggest challenges in taking a Chinese brand like Huawei to international markets.

Mobile, the region's fastest growing advertising medium, will also be widely discussed throughout the event. Margot Torres, Vice President Marketing at McDonald's Philippines and Arthur Policarpio, the Head of Mobext will take the stage in a compelling presentation making the case for brands and agencies to work together and position mobile as an integral part of the larger brand marketing and business strategy. In addition, Vivian Zhu, Managing Director, China Digital at SMG China, will lead a session on delivering brand intimacy in China through mobile, while Graham Christie, Chief Creative Officer & Co-founder, Big Mobile Group will provide a comprehensive look at the State of Mobile in Asia Pacific in 2015.

In addition, this year's event will also delve deeper into one of the biggest issues in media today - the development and retention of talent. A distinguished panel of both client and agency-side leaders will take a closer look at what it takes to develop a winning team and the issue of local versus expatriate staff in Asia Pacific. A big believer in the need to develop talent, the Festival of Media will also host two awards for young people - the Rising Star Award 2015, supported by Starcom MediaVest Group, and the #YPL Young Promising Leaders Program, sponsored by Twitter and Power98 FM.

Other confirmed event speakers include:

- Dean Dacko, Senior Vice President, Head of Marketing and Products, Malaysia Airlines
- Cheuk Chiang, CEO Asia Pacific, Omnicom
- Hannelore Grams, Head of Digital Marketing & Social Media for Greater China, Nestle
- Rohit Jawa, Chairman & CEO, Unilever Philippines
- Cheryl Goh, Global VP Marketing, GrabTaxi
- Shiv Shivakumar, Chairman & CEO, PepsiCo India
- Sunita Kaur, Asia Managing Director, Spotify

The annual Festival of Media Asia-Pacific is supported by Founder Partners Bloomberg Media, SpotXchange, Rubicon Project(R), Starcom MediaVest Group, UM, Initiative, Millward Brown, and Microsoft.

The Festival provides delegates a unique platform to learn, network, be inspired by one another and discuss issues most pertinent to the industry. It culminates with the renowned Festival of Media Asia Pacific awards, celebrating the best of innovation and creativity in the industry. Winners of the hotly contested awards will be announced during a glittering gala dinner on the 24 March 2015 at the close of the Festival.

Brands confirmed to attend so far include: Audi, Axa, Diageo, Google, GrabTaxi, GSK, Heineken, Huawei, Johnson & Johnson, Malaysia Airlines, LinkedIn, Mondelez International, Nestle, PepsiCo, Unilever and Visa.

  • Minimally Invasive
    The surgical technique may reduce complications associated with the large incisions required with plating.

View cart “Triangle Large Brass Dowsing Pendulum” has been added to your cart.

Pendulum Pouch, Leather, Small

Made from durable leather with a snap fastener this is one of the best pendulum pouches on the market.

Height 5.0 cm x Width 7.5 cm / 8.0 gm
Height 1.97″ x Width 2.95″ / 0.28 oz

This premium quality leather pendulum pouch will outlast most fabric pouches and last years without need for replacement.

This small leather pendulum pouch is perfect for a couple of pendulums, or small crystals and stones.

The small leather pendulum pouch comes in an assortment of colors: black, browns, red or white.

You don’t get to pick the color because it’s a random selection, however if you have a preference, leave me a note and I will try to accommodate you, although I cannot guarantee it.

Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to try out and use a variety of pendulum pouches that are available on the market.

Many of the pendulum pouches that I tried were made from fabric, faux leather, velvet or felt. Some pendulum pouches used draw-strings or Velcro or snaps to close the pouch.

However, I found that each pouch had a deficiency over time when used in real life situations. I say over time because not all problems reveal themselves immediately and the true test is how they perform 6 months or two years later.

Many of the pendulum pouches that I tried became worn, developed holes, did not close satisfactorily, allowed dirt and lint to enter the pouch, allowed the string or chain to dangle out of the pouch or the pendulum escaped from the pendulum pouch itself.

What I was looking for in a pendulum pouch was something that could withstand the rigors of “pocket life” when the pouch is in a trouser pocket.

It must be able to withstand the friction and chafing that takes place in a pocket that has other things in it like car keys, pens, coins and other paraphernalia.

Further the pendulum pouch must not wear, fray, or develop holes which compromises its purpose and necessitates buying a replacement pouch…in time.

The other attribute I was looking for in my pendulum pouch was the ability to keep the contents of the pouch in the pouch.

I discovered that certain materials were too thin to hold heavy items, which not only led to an erosion of the pouch material from within but the pouch was also not reliable in keeping the contents of my pendulum pouch from eventually ending up in my pocket.

After searching around I finally came across the small and large leather pendulum pouches that I sell on my site.

The small leather pendulum pouch sits comfortably in my pocket and after 3 years of use still looks new. More importantly, this pouch has never leaked any of its contents into my pocket.

My leather pouch holds a couple of small pendulums along with some small gem stones and auguries given to me by fellow dowsers.

Now you can carry your pouch in your pocket with the knowledge that your dowsing tools are safely kept separated from your coins and pocket lint.

Height 5.0 cm x Width 7.5 cm / 8.0 gm
Height 1.97″ x Width 2.95″ / 0.28 oz

Indian at heart, American in spirit

a bit about me

Some people know what they want to do their whole lives. Some discover it along the way and BANG, it hits them so hard they automatically do everything in their power to become it. Myself? I presumed to make everything more complicated, and can never decide one week if I want to be the guy who fell in married his high school crush or the NRI who returns home to India to start a company. Just like that, the more and more I discover about what it is you "do" as an actor, as a visual storyteller, as a writer, as a performer, the more and more I discover about myself, what I'm capable of, and living these tiny separate lives that are in some way connected.

By me.

Reality is cool, it's fine, either way I'm forced to live in it. But I had a feeling from an early age I'd never be satisfied doing just "1" thing for the rest of my life. I needed a lot of variety, I wanted to experience things that were totally unrelated and unrealistic or, "not practical," as my parents would say. I day dreamed and behind closed doors proceeded to day dream and imagine and, yes, play-act the stories that excited me. I never thought so much of it then. And then, you know, you grow up. And you start having responsibilities. I started working professionally since High School. I've worked at a ___________. Maybe my parents were hoping something along the line would stick. For me, it was always a means to an end.

Is it so wrong to say I want to inspire people. Is that too cheesy? Maybe "inspire" isn't broad enough in scope. But it's that feeling when you watch or read or hear about something AWESOME and just want to do something AWESOME too. THAT'S the magic right there. Other times it's when I'm at my loneliest or my most vulnerable, and then seeing something that strikes that chord, watching something that just 'gets it,' and all of a sudden I'm not so alone anymore.

I'm energized. I'm curious. I'm excited.

I'm those things most of the time, but they're at their peak when I'm a part of telling a great story. I didn't just find a home in my work as an actor, I found a business to run. My business. The business of me. It's just a business I know the most about, and it's what I'd like to make a career out of.

Everybody starts somewhere.

If you happened to start here, reach out to me! Let's talk.

If you'd like to represent me, I'd say you're pretty smart.

If you want to see more of what I do, watch this space.

Jessup River, west of Rt. 30

Based on last year paddling, anyone paddle going west to note if the numerous large tree obstructions were cleared? They were numerous and rather difficult to maneuver around on land last time I attempted it. I have seen cars frequently parked at the bridge but assume these are all eastbound paddlers headed to Indian lake. Thank you.

Put in at Rt. 30 and paddled west on the Jessup last Fall. I remember a few tight spots (maybe had to get out of the boat once or twice) but made it several miles west. It was very scenic.

do you mean this one?

Photos above were taken one month before Irene...
That jam still shows on Google Earth, Caltopo satellite, and Bing. Not sure of Caltopo and Bing, but GE lists image date of 9-26-2015.
So....if that jam survived Irene, I truly doubt that any natural occurrence washed it away since last September.

We traversed on the jam, footing was precarious at best, buddy in the photo (hickoryskier) plunged through up to his importants with one leg, could have been serious.

That big log jam was the only one that was tricky, several other bank to bank deadfalls were humped over, two of them needed a carry.
We had no other obstructions between Whitaker Lake outlet and Rt 30.
That section of the Jessup, from Military Rd bridge to Whitaker Lake outlet is seldom paddled, that big log jam is an effective strainer for most paddlers!!

I had posted a TR here:

Paddled from rte 30 bridge to bridge where Stripperguy put in and returned last August. It was a typical stream paddle, several beaver dams to contend with but the large obstruction was gone. Beautiful stream and lots of broad leaf type trees. Highly recommend. John
