Homemade Spacecraft
I found this today via MAKE.
The following video was taken from a camera attached to a weather balloon that rose into the upper stratosphere and recorded the blackness of space.

TimeForce 10 - "The Demise of Doctor Dreamscape"
TimeForce 10 - "The Demise of Doctor Dreamscape" from ZoeConnolly on Vimeo.
TimeForce 10 agent Samantha Calamity catches Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape attempting to sabotage the TF10 Time Tunnel. Calamity chases her to the rooftop helicopter pads, and forces her to the edge where the Doctor hangs precariously.
Dreamscape tries to make a last minute deal to win Calamity to her side.
Is this really the end of Doctor Dreamscape?
Readers may visit the Time Tunnel by teleporting (or timeporting) to the following SLurl http://slurl.com/secondlife/Caledon%20Mayfair/40/243/24. You'll land at my Steampunk home in Caledon Mayfair. Then take the elevator to the Time Tunnel level.
TimeForce 10 - "The Return of Ava Zenovka"
Slain TimeForce 10 agent Ava Zenovka returns to the TF10 Time Tunnel in an altered state. The vengeful spirit of Ava looks for her nemesis in the last place where Doctor Dreamscape left her lifeless body. Ava's ghost plans the capture and enslavement of the super-villainous sociopath Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape.
Will Doctor Dreamscape escape Zoe Connolly and Samantha Calamity from TimeForce 10?
And if she does, will she face a far worse punishment from Ava's Ghost?

TimeForce 10 - "Die Glocke"
Following the recovery of the once missing Bell 2 from a remote Blake Sea Island, TimeRaiders Zabrina McMahon and Zoetrope Dreamscape put the finishing touches on the Bell 4.
The Bell 4 is to be the second of five working time machines to be delivered to a special team of 1944 German Scientists.
Once all five Nazi Time Machines are in place, the Germans - with the assistance of The TimeRaiders - will begin Operation TimePanzer: The Secret Plan to send a team of 1944 Germans to meet with Hitler in early 1941.
Will the plan work?
Or did Major Samantha Calamity of TimeForce 10 find the secret of the missing Bell Mark 2?
And will 19th Century Scientist Cinnamon Somerset escape from the TimeRaiders and find her missing husband?

TimeForce 10 - "The Test"
Zabrina McMahon goes inside a Nazi Time Machine to test all systems before a human chrononaut is chosen for testing.
Known to the Germans as "Die Glocke" the Bell Mark III will be the third Time Machine to be tested by Nazi Germany, but as Doctor Zoetrope Dreamscape reminds Zabrina McMahon, the missing Bell Mark II must be found and destroyed before Zoe Connolly and her TimeForce 10 agents can unlock its secrets.
The Bell's signature footprint holds clues that will lead TF10 to the exact place, date and time of the Nazi Time Machine Project in France 1944.
Will TimeForce 10 find Bell 2 before Zabrina? And what will happen to Zabrina if she fails her mission?

NING network groups
Sadly, this is the day when NING stops supporting free groups and deletes any network group that did not choose one of their new "fabulous" tier plans.
I really REALLY loved NING and I'm sad to see it go down this road.
I'm not sure of the exact hour when such NINGs will be shut-down, but I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the time we all had on these groups... Not only to the kind folks at NING, but to all my wonderful friends and colleagues... to all of us who shared our little corner of Internet space.

My only solace in all this is... I get to reduce my social media footprint and free more time. I'll still be here on this blog, plus the ever present and growing Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and of course... my lovely YouTube. Yay, YouTube!
I think that's about enough social media for me. So goodbye NING! Like many lost people and things in Second Life, it was so good while it lasted.
UPDATE!
I've received word that midnight this Friday evening August 20th/Saturday morning August 21st (PST/SL time) is to be the final moment for all free NING groups.
