The poem ends with its speaker arriving home with the prospect of the next day feeling like the "last twist of the knife"-perhaps the ultimate insult, to have to get ready for the day ahead despite the creeping sense that life lacks any purpose or meaning. The world around the narrator seems at once familiar and strangely nightmarish, and a sense of futility and hopelessness invades the speaker's experience of the world as time goes on. ![]() It follows its narrator wandering an urban street from midnight until 4:30 a.m. Often considered one of Eliot's most difficult poems, "Rhapsody" is above all an investigation into time, memory, and the mind. It was written in 1911, around the time Eliot was studying at the Sorbonne in Paris.

7/24/2023 0 Comments Buster brown mary janes![]() She notes that a shoe's pitch, or incline, can also determine whether or not a shoe will be comfortable. We're all familiar with the woes of wearing a shoe that's a half-size too big or too small, so make sure you take a quick lap in said shoes-whether around the house or the store-before deciding whether or not to make them yours. "First and foremost, any shoe needs to fit properly," says Kanfer. “The right hardware is imperative to building out looks-for example, if you don’t wear a lot of gold, don’t choose something with gold hardware.” The Aeyde Black Patent Uma, for example, features silver hardware, while the aforementioned Manolos have a crystal button detail. When you think of the classic patent Mary Jane, it typically has a silver or matching patent buckle at the instep straps, but she suggests considering what works with the rest of your wardrobe. Margaux's The Mary Jane is a great everyday flat, while the Manolo Blahnik's Stiletto Mule offers a bit more polish with its satin and crystal construction.Īccording to Davis, a shoe’s hardware, particularly the buckle, is equally important. “Look for a funky color, unique shape, or an interesting fabric,” she says. Do you want a traditional black flat that you can pair with any outfit or a style you can wear on formal occasions? If you’d prefer more of a statement shoe, Bhatt suggests looking for fresh takes on the classic silhouette. Today’s Mary Janes come in all shapes and sizes (and heights and colors, but more on that below), so it’s helpful to be mindful of how you plan to wear them as you shop. What to Look for When Buying Mary Janes Style

UPDATED FILE: Version 1.6 ~ April 28th 2016 7/23/2023 0 Comments Mars images![]() The raw data is almost unviewable, so I have done some computer processing for horizontal sync, dark current and charge-transfer effects, as discussed in Televizionnye Issledovaniia Fobosa. It was built by a team from Buylgaria, East Germany and the Soviet Union, and extensive image processing was performed at IKI and the Keldysh Institute.Ĭhannel 1 was wide angle with a blue-green filter (400-600 nm), channel 2 was narrow angle with clear filter (400-1100 nm), and channel 3 was wide angle with near-infrared filter (800-1100 nm). The elongated horizontal smudge seen in some images is the shadow of Phobos, traveling in nearly the same orbit as the spacecraft:įobos-2 carried the video-spectrometric complex (VSK), three CCD cameras and a spectrometer. That operated simultaneously in red/near-infrared light (600 - 950 nm) and far thermal infrared (8.5 - 12 μ), using a cryogenically cooled detector. The last successful Soviet space probe, Fobos-2 arrived in Martian orbit on January 30, 1989. The camera scanned a 30° wide swath, returning 256 or possibly 512 pixels per scanline (including a squarewave calibration pattern during the retrace interval, not shown here). Scanned the planet while the spacecraft moved in its orbit and remained in a 3-axis stabilized orientation. Images transmitted only in 220-line resolution are presented as icons with no image link. Unless otherwise indicated, the Vega pictures are shot through its red filter. Images were transmitted in a rapid 220-line mode, and then selected pictures were retransmitted at 880 or 1760 line resolution. The "Vega" camera used a wide area 52mm lens with color filters, the "Zulfar" camera used a telescopic 350mm lens and long-pass orange filter. Nearly synchronized with the rotation of the planet, its twoĬould be commanded to take 12 pictures during each close approach. Mars-5 entered an elliptic Martian orbit on February 12, 1974. Red and orange filter images have been published, but apparently no infrared panoramas were received from Mars-4 or Mars-5. These were very similar to cameras later flown on Venera-9 and 10 orbiters, but one of the Mars versions had a photomultiplier tube sensitive to infrared. Swept out panoramas of Mars as the spacecraft passed by. Image data was returned digitally by pulse position modulation. It also returned 2 panoramas from the optical-mechanical cameras. During its flyby on February 10 1974, it returned 12 photographs from the 52mm "Vega"Īll through the red filter. The first in an armada of four spacecrafts launched in 1973, Mars-4 failed to enter orbit. It is not likely a view of the Martian horizon as some people have suggested: After extensive analysis, Soviet scientists report that it contains no information. It should probably be rotated 90° since the Mars-3 cameras were of the sameĪs Luna-9, scanning vertically. The image below right is reported to be a view of that signal. The red-filter image, published elsewhere, is evidently one of the channels used in the composite:Ī descent vehicle released by Mars-3 became the first probe to land on Mars, but it only operated for about 20 seconds, returning some data and 79 scan lines of video. The color image below is a composite from the 52 mm camera, using its program of cycling red, green and blue glass filters. ![]() Only after important science data was gathered, a small number of images at low resolution were transmitted The decimeter transmitter suffered from intermittant failures and was used very cautiously. Images were returned by pulse-code modulation over the decimeter-band telemetry channel, after the centimeter-band pulse-position modulation system failed. At least four photographic surveys have been reported (Dec 12, 14, Feb 28, Mar 12). Mars-2 did not return much data because of problems with its telemetry systems.Ĭontrary to some reports, the phototelevision cameras on Mars-3 were functional after the dust storm subsided, in December. The photo below left shows the atmospheric limb during the dust storm, from a distance of 150,000 km (the orbit of Mars-3 was highly elongated). However, Mars was experiencing a severe planet-wide dust storm when the Soviet probes (and the American Mariner-9) arrived. The original plan was to spend the first 40 days performing photographic surveys Selivanov and his team at the Institute of Space Device Engineering. (later used on Mars-4 and 5), carrying enough film for 480 photos per camera. They carried the 52mm "Vega" and 350mm "Zulfar" The first Soviet orbiters, Mars-2 and Mars-3 arrived on November 27 and December 2, 1971. After some success in 19, the Russians focused primarily on the study of Venus. Soviet Mars probes in the 1960s were far ahead of their time but suffered a series of unlucky failures. 7/23/2023 0 Comments Nasa astronauts costume![]() ![]() The space shuttle astronauts wear specially designed suits when taking a 'space walk,' or performing extra vehicular activities. Udvar-Hazy Center (part of the Smithsonian) in Virginia.īy NASA, via Wikimedia Commons Discovery is now on display at the Steven F. The Discovery crew, wearing their ACES suits, posed for the above picture in front of the bus that would take them to the launch pad for that shuttle's final flight. Why? If something ever went wrong, and astronauts ended up needing to be plucked out of the sea, bright orange would be a whole lot more visible against the color of the ocean than dark blue. But those were never worn in flight, and the color was quickly change to orange. Interestingly, the very first design of the LES was in a dark blue. During the shutdown of the program following the loss of the Challenger, it was decided that pressurized suits designed for escape were a must, and NASA used LES from the time flights resumed. Up through 1986, crews wore their blue flight suits, with helmets, during launch and re-entry. ![]() There's no explanation necessary for that nickname, is there? They were nicknamed 'pumpkin suits' by those who wore them. The ACES (Advanced Crew Escape Suit) was the successor to the orange LES (Launch entry Suit). Challenger and her crew were lost in the sky over Cape Canaveral.īy NASA/Jim Grossmann, via Wikimedia CommonsĬrew of Discovery's last mission, prior to launch It was just after liftoff for mission STS-51L on January 28,1986, that the disaster struck. STS-8 was a mission of firsts: Not only was Mission Specialist Guion Bluford the first African American to go into space, but this was also the first nighttime launch and landing. You don't have to think very hard to imagine that these must be by far the most comfortable of the three uniforms. (They're also worn on the Talon t-38 supersonic trainer jets.) After the first shuttle disaster, the pressurized orange ones were used during the crucial beginning and ending of missions.īlue is still the color we see our space men and women wearing for training and flight deck wear. These would have been the suits they wore on August 30, 1983, during liftoff, and on September 5, when Challenger landed at Edwards Air Force Base in California.

In 2021, Scottsdale Police arrested a 30-year-old Californian for stealing a home after an Arizona woman discovered the house, which belonged to her deceased father, was no longer in his name. ![]() In 2018, a man was arrested after officials said he forged deeds to numerous homes that had been foreclosed or were owned by deceased or elderly individuals, including 13 in Maricopa County. "People get smarter and think of different ways to make money," she said. Maricopa County Director of Recording Leslie Hoffman said she started noticing a rise in title cases about five years ago. Or, they might take out loans against the property they won't pay back, getting the real homeowners and the lender into a financial mess. Then, they can sell the home and take the cash before the buyer catches onto the scam. By forging the deed to a home, a fraudster can illegally transfer ownership of a home into their name and claim they hold title to it. How does title theft work?Ī house title signifies legal ownership of a property. Here's what you need to know about Maricopa County's new alert system and deed fraud in Arizona. It will be the third county in Arizona to take the step, after Pinal and Yavapai counties, both of which began providing opt-in alerts to property owners before the new law's passage. With its alerts for property owners, Maricopa County will join jurisdictions across the country aiming to battle a national increase in title theft, made easier than ever by electronic filings and a tight real estate market with desperate buyers less likely to ask too many questions. Wendy Rogers, R-Flagstaff, who told her fellow lawmakers that using such systems to notify homeowners was "a no-brainer" and "win-win." That legislation was sponsored by Arizona Sen. The new system, which has been in the works since last summer, comes just a few months after the passage of a new state law requiring all of Arizona's counties to offer similar services by 2025. The Maricopa County Recorder's Office is launching a new alert system to fight a rising number of fraud schemes in which homes are sold out from under property owners, officials said. 7/23/2023 0 Comments Carbonite support number![]() You can also stream any music that you have stored in the cloud to the tablet PC.
