"It's better to light a candle than curse the darkness."
To decorate and illuminate a dinner I experimented with elements. What you see is a candle on a home-made (mini)igloo. The ice cover needs some few hours to come into being at -15.0 ?C (5.0 ?F). The special surprise is under the icecap. There is another burning candle. To combine the opponents fire and ice is a little tricky but when you have the hang of it, then it will not fail to have the desired effect (click to enlarge). Attach file: (27.71 KB) (19.26 KB)

...Looking at the Chaika on the lift, were those perimeter frames or unibodies?... Steven, my preferred online-dictionary is offline and I feel uneasy. I at least understand that we talk about the frame. It has a steel frame, built for eternity. Especially its massive rear square profiled crossbar is reminiscent of the GAZ truck building tradition. The drabness of the below shown Ukrainian chicken yard seems intended to illustrate that theatrical scenic painting includes wide-ranging disciplines but the name of its scene paiter is R. Eality.

Simplicity wins
--> fly Robin fly To complete his literary work on this chart-stormer the songwriter just had to add "up up to the sky". That was enough content for a number one hit in the USA in the seventies. Simplicity (sometimes) wins. Attach file: (29.07 KB)

But was it really better and intentional to have e.g. a cardan tunnel between the legs instead of hypoid cogs inside of the rear axle differential? It's more likely that other aspects like technology and money had a mayor influence (oil quality). To say it with BigKev: Quote: They just market that as a feature....aka Child Safety Windows. Well, financial constraints sometimes lead to simple but durable solutions. Attach file: (47.47 KB) (30.25 KB)
