As you can probably infer from my handle and avatar, I'm a big fan of McDuck history. I've been willing to create floorplans of the clan's castle for some time, based on what we saw in Carl Barks and Don Rosa's stories, but I don't really know the first thing about architecture or drawing maps. I think it could be a nice collective project if other people are interested.  A few stray observations: - The workable sources are The Old Castle's Secret (W OS 189-2), The Billionaire Of Dismal Downs (D 93121), The Last of the Clan McDuck (D 91308), The New Laird Of Castle McDuck (D 92191), The Dreamtime Duck Of The Never Never (D 92314), and A Letter from Home (D 2003-081). I feel we should discard Hound of the Whiskervilles (W US 29-04), because the castle is depicted too differently in that story. - Carl Barks likely drew inspiration from Harlech Castle (general structure), Cawdor Castle (the keep), Glamis Castle (turrets and battlements), and Winchester Castle (some interior parts). Studying the architure of those castles may help. - There ARE inconsistencies, which we will inevitably be forced to brush off. For example, in A Letter from Home, it's first implied that the fireplace room with the dining table is located on the first floor above ground and has a windows, but on the very next page, it's pretty obviously located on the ground floor and lack windows! - Although the story A McDuck by Any Other Name (D 2010-143) was made by Vicar, the castle is clearly intended to be the same as in Barks' and Rosa's stories, so I think it's fair game to use it as a source. Duckly yours, Friar Juicy McDuck MacDuich gu bràth!

Do update on your progresses. It's fair to kick out the DuckTales version of the castle as irrelevant (due to being a much more recent castle than the ancestral one usually seen, despite the identical name), and Hound of the Whiskervilles as an exercise in futility to try and account for. The Loch Eerie Monster's Castle McDuck is supposed to be the same one as Barks, give or take, but was stated to date back to 1428, which can't be right for the Don Rosa backstory, so I'd also say it's a different castle that belonged to some past member of Clan McDuck who split off — much like the castle of Gummo McDuck. There is, however, another Vicar story, The Crying Monster, which features Castle McDuck, and it's abundantly clear that writer Andrew Galton meant for it to be Barks's Castle McDuck, since Huey, Dewey and Louie mention having "hunted a ghost" there some time earlier. However, Vicar didn't draw it to look anything like the Barks version from the outside, placing it on a tiny island in the middle of a loch and making it much tinier. I really don't know what to make of that. juicymcduck Duckling * juicymcduck Avatar Posts: 25 Aug 11, 2018 at 7:05pm QuotelikePost Options Post by juicymcduck on Aug 11, 2018 at 7:05pm Scrooge MacDuck Avatar Aug 11, 2018 at 6:49pm Scrooge MacDuck said: There is, however, another Vicar story, The Crying Monster, which features Castle McDuck, and it's abundantly clear that writer Andrew Galton meant for it to be Barks's Castle McDuck, since Huey, Dewey and Louie mention having "hunted a ghost" there some time earlier.

Does the last one, "The Secret of Ebeneezer Duck," include a lake monster in the loch? It sounds as though it might, from the German title. (Is that title then a spoiler?) Obviously Fallberg's "The Loch Eerie Monster" has a Nessie-like monster in the loch next to the castle. Indeed, that story predates Barks' "Mystery of the Loch," and I believe it to be the first ever Disney comics story featuring a lake monster. And "The Crying Monster" features a family of lake monsters in the loch next to (around) what the author meant to be Castle McDuck. If I were doing a map of Castle McDuck, I'd include a Nessie-like monster in the loch. Just sayin'.

Heh, that's a funny name. Wonder what the people are like." SIGN: "DUCKBURG — 320.000 inhabitants + 1 billionaire" Disregarding the sign's overlooking of John D. Rockerduck and all the other denizens of the Duckburg Billionaires' Club, it does beg the question of just how many inhabitants there are in Duckburg. This 1966 story says 320.00 (by comparison, around that time, San Francisco was home to around 740.00), and that seems to fit the Italian conception of Duckburg pretty well to this non-expert. However, do any of you have any other hints of the Duckburg population given in stories (I'm thinking maybe some stories focusing on elections may have some interesting numbers?), or else your own ideas of how many people Duckburg should house?

So, the way writers conceive Duckburg's population and artists portrait it* must rather develop more or less unconsciously. As a consequence, it also depends on the notion of "big city" in the country where the author comes from. For instance, for an Italian person a "big city" must have 3 millions inhabitants at least, like Naples, Milan or Rome. That's most probably how many Italian Disney authors think of Duckburg. Example: Rota portraits Duckburg as some kind of "New York with elements of Milan's architecture" (see the splash page opening Paperino Pendolare, which is almost a view of Milan Central Station). For a Novergian, Finnish or Dutch author the thing can be different, so that half a million population would be enough already. Of course, there are some authors who - independently of their nationality - more consciously set the stories in the US. In that case a San Francisco-like population may be accurate. Even if, I will notice, some views of the city by Barks himself make me think of a much bigger city! Take for instance the splash page opening The magic hourglass. That looks bigger than San Francisco to me! Or at least more densely populated. (Before you ask: yes, I have been in San Francisco.) [* here the work of the artist is even more relevant than the one of the writer, as the former is usually more in control of the backgrounds, and backgrounds gives you a representation of the surrounding population.] Last Edit: Nov 18, 2017 at 11:39am by Monkey_Feyerabend RobbK1 Big Duck ***** RobbK1 Avatar Posts: 1,271Male Nov 18, 2017 at 6:17pm QuotelikePost Options Post by RobbK1 on Nov 18, 2017 at 6:17pm Yes, the splash panel in "The Magic Hourglass" , which, no doubt, partly inspired Marco Rota's splash panel in his story "Donald Duck's Life (From Egg to Duck)", made Duckburg look like a city of more than one Million people. We story creators must assume that the range of city sizes, in which Duckburg is portrayed, represented a fantastic rate of growth of that city over a very short period, which must represent a "boom period", perhaps due to some flowering of a new industry, or favoured monopoly-type position given to that city. This must have occurred during the six to seven year span over which both the domestic and foreign adventure stories of "The Duck Family" (Donald, Scrooge and Huey, Dewey and Louie) take place.

It was created by a fan who researched 13 years on it. www.donald.org/DD/DDSH/stadtplan/index.htmlAccording to this map, Duckburg is a larger city in point of area. What population it has exactly can't be said for certain, because that depends on population density. Duckburg possesses highly urbanized regions (just remember the "The Magic Hourglass" splash panel! It's taken at the "Sanduhr-Brücke" aka Hourglass Bridge, right in the city core), but large parts of it seem to more resemble rural areas, so it's very likely kind of in the middle. Though, theoretically, maybe Duckburg could house a million people if it's very densely populated, my guess is that it has most likely a quarter million to half a million inhabitants.

The best place to start is Webby's board: "Beagleburg". What is that? The note "Scotty McDuck - Alternate Timeline?" seems to refer to the Mark Worden family tree where Scrooge's grandfather is called "Old Scotty McDuck" and looks nothing like Fergus. It seems Webby found in-universe existence of Scotty and is wondering just where he fits in the family tree, hence her "alternate universe" hypothesis. Now… is it true? What does Scotty have to do with anything? Enigmatic "The Traitor" note above the McDuck Clan Members list. Also enigmatic "Scrooge's Worst Nightmare" note. "Friend of F.O.W.L." note. Does it refer to Scrogoe, or to the "Dirty Dingus" note just above? Not to mention "Dirty Dingus" is not the same as the "Grandpa" picture connected to Fergus. Strange. Yet another enigmatic note with "WHO IS D.B. —> Gyro?", possibly connected to the above note which seems to read "Never World War II", for inexplicable reasons. What is that large map? An official-looking paper from the "Senior Woodchucks Council". Maybe we should add this to that old thread we did discussing the term of "Senior Woodchuck", though I don't remember what it was called? Either way, I'm curious to know what it says. Perhaps a "No, we won't sell a copy of our guidebook to you!" letter to reference Guardians of the Lost Library? A note appears to say "Who's cleaning my room?". I don't know what that has to do with anything. Everyone's going crazy about the TaleSpin implications of the newspaper cutting referring to sky pirates, but what I find odder is that if they were "sighted over Plain Awful", this means Plain Awful is already well-known to Duckburgers in this continuity. Presumably, it was explored by Donald, Della and Scrooge back in the day, and the adventure went differently without Huey, Dewey and Louie's chewing gum throwing a wrench in the cogs, allowing Scrooge and Co. to peacefully introduce the Awfultonians ot the outside world.

I wonder if Beakley is part of some larger conspiracy. She has considerable training, and Scrooge's even considered her for the Atlantis expedition, so maybe she was an agent who fought F.O.W.L at some point? A SHUSH agent? * The Newspaper article next to Donald mentions a "Terry-Fermian" sighting I believe. * "Beagleburg" might be what this place where the Beagle Boys are gathering is called. Beagle boys gathering around Ma Beagle's caravan. * Do you know what the note behind Webby says?

Yes and no. It is primarily featured in Darkwing Duck, but it (like its gooda-ligned counterpart SHUSH) debuted in a pre-DW episode of DuckTales Classic, "Double-O-Duck". So those who think Darkwing Duck shouldn't have anything to do with this show can quietly believe it's actually a shout-out to the old series and nothing more. (Though admittedly this position should become hard to defend once Darkwing actually appears in the show as the producers said he would.)

St. Canard ? Never thought about that but it looks like you may be right about that. From the Disney Wiki: In the Darkwing Duck comic book published by Boom! Studios, it is confirmed that St. Canard is located fairly close to Duckburg, where Launchpad previously lived. In the 2017 series DuckTales, it is stated that Duckburg and St. Canard are across from each other separated by a bay. In that comic, Gosylan was able to travel to Duckburg by bus within presumably a short amount of time. Couple things off about this though. 1. If that map is accurate, then that would make Duckburg at least three times larger than St. Canard. 2. The bridge connecting St. Canard to Duckburg would have to be the Audubon Bay Bridge, the location of Darkwing's hideout. In Darkwing Duck, the bridge always went in a straight line instead of the more tilted line shown on that map. The map also makes the bridge look longer than it's been shown to be in the past. I know this is a reboot and they could simply be changing all of that but it still seems weird to me.

The neglected "10c = #11" note, I think I can explain that one. In the intro, Scrooge is seen chasing after a dime. I had to guess to get the connection, but I don't think it's an ordinary dime. Ducktales, Original Series, Episode 11. Magica McSpell uses magic to unleash her own shadow. Her objective, is to steal a magical talisman that Scrooge has - his LUCKY NUMBER ONE DIME, the first dime he ever made. This is a recurring plot element in the original series. Interesting...  I See it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKSU82afy1wFollowing it. He's not chasing after it, he's following it. He could have caught it in the first split second, but he didn't. He let it fall where it may and then he followed it. ---- I believe the equation on the whiteboard is 22 + 1400 = 87? NOT minus, but plus.

They aren't going to be located in Hentown, Cattville, Hogtown, Noplace or Pickleburg. They are going to be in Duckburg, like Denver, Colorado, Indianapolis, Indiana, Saint Paul, Minnesota, Columbus, Ohio, Salt Lake City, Utah, or Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Barksist First Class!

Disney has apparently just announced, at the Annecy International Film Festival, a new Chip 'n' Dale animated television show, which will be featured on the Disney+ streaming service. (insidethemagic.net/2019/06/disney-chip-dale-animated-series-ba1/)
Here's the first image of the show.
And here's the description given by Disney:
"The show is developed by Disney’s London-based animation team in collaboration with Xilam Animation in Paris. The series will be fully produced by Xilam, an award-winning independent production studio known around the world for visual invention and cartoon comedy. The 39 x seven-minute episodes will feature the return of Disney’s much-loved chipmunk troublemakers in a non-verbal, classic style comedy, following the ups and downs of two little creatures living life in the big city. Combining a traditional style of animation with contemporary, comedic narratives, Chip ‘n’ Dale is directed by Jean Cayrol and produced by Marc du Pontavice."

It's funny how the article you link to makes a point of mentioning the "Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers" series, and how it's not at all surprising that these characters are getting a new animated show... when this show clearly has nothing to do with "Rescue Rangers". It will obviously be in the vein of the original, theatrical Chip 'n' Dale shorts.

Eh... it looks like it could be entertaining or a big flop. We'll have to see. Also, I don't think the art style is too similar to that of the Rudish shorts. I'd say it's got even more of a contemporary vibe than that. I'm curious about the quote referring to it as a "non-verbal, classic style comedy". I've thought for some time that a series of non-verbal shorts featuring Oswald the Lucky Rabbit could be fun, but not Chip 'n' Dale. I like it when Chip 'n' Dale talk. They have somewhat funny voices and interesting personalities. I hope their personalities aren't lost in a cartoon with no talking.

I was thinking the same thing about "non-verbal". But then again, their voices were sped up so fast in the original shorts that you could often only barely (if at all) hear what they were saying. And the original shorts always made it clear what was going on through visuals, whether you understood the spoken lines or not. I'm thinking that may be what "non-verbal" means in this case. Eliminating their voices altogether feels idiotic.

Yeah, it would be fine if they had them talking like they did in some of the old shorts, but I feel like something would be lost if the voices were to be eliminated. I think that in the classic shorts, their voices added a layer of comedy to them. Hearing a squeaky voice say, "Knucklehead", which I'm pretty sure I remember Chip saying in one short, is pretty funny. Maybe not hilarious, but it certainly adds some humor.

I agree. Not that I'm a huge fan of these characters myself, but the voices and their fast-paced banter is certainly part of their appeal. And why eliminate something which is just amusing and doesn't stand in the way of the stories being understood visually anyway? So, I hope "non-verbal" allows for chipmunk chatter.

This is very much not the Paul Rudish style. It'd look much more appealing if it were. Instead they have Homer Simpson's face.
Xilam does decent stuff. It'll probably be fine enough. Thoroughly uninterested.

A shame that they're opting for this hideous CalArts-style again...It doesn't really remind me of the Rudish shorts, which (while still having a smilarly over-stylized look) actually featured surprisingly on-model versions of Chip and Dale.
I've always thought Chip and Dale were quite funny as adversaries (i.e. supporting characters) to Donald, in the same spirit as the nephews, Neighbor Jones, Gladstone and Uncle Scrooge would later be in the (shorter) comic stories. This series will clearly focus on Chip and Dale alone, which sounds much less interesting--although I'll say the fact that there seems to be somewhat of a renewed interest in Disney's classic stable of character is a positive.
But yeah, Chip and Dale are probably the least interesting characters out of the entire classic Disney cast. I would have rather seen Disney do a reboot of the old Donald Duck cartoons, or their Goofy cartoons (the Jack Kinney ones, with the entire world full of wacky Goofy-lookalikes!), with high-quality, on-model 2D animation like the upcoming Looney Tunes Cartoons.

They actually tried that in 2007 with the great Goofy short "How To Hook Up Your Home Theater". At the time they had several other classic-style shorts in development, including a Mickey Mouse one. But the Goofy cartoon apparently didn't make enough of a splash for them to make more outings with the classic characters.

Which is upsetting because the Goofy cartoon was great. On par with the classic ones. I can't say that for anything else Disney has done with the classic characters lately.

Yeah, it was, but there hasn't really been a market for theatrical shorts in decades. I'm betting they had a hard time even judging how much money the Goofy short made. Though, Warner seems to be putting a lot into their new theatrical slash streaming slash TV shorts of the Looney Tunes. How I wish something like that was done for Disney, Popeye, Tom and Jerry etc... Sigh. Maybe with time.

Not to fond of the art style, but if the plots of the cartoons is gonna be closer to the original shorts and not randomly make them crime fighters like in the Rescue Rangers show then that is a step in the right direction at least.
Which brings up another question: Will Donald, Pluto and the other adversaries from the 40s and 50s shorts be in this show?

Randomly? C'mon, that was completely logical! I always felt Dale was missing Magnum P.I.'s Hawaiian shirt when I was watching the classic shorts growing up.

The still image, character designs and description of this new Chip 'n' Dale series give me a Wabbit/New Looney Tunes feel, which is not necessarily a compliment in my book. (The few episodes of that show I saw didn't interest me much, but I'd have to look at it again. The Looney Tunes 2019 series, which I just learned about thanks to your post, does indeed look more promising.) But yes, including the classic foils of Donald, Pluto and Pete would cause this Chip 'n' Dale show to rise in my estimation.

Disney has apparently just announced, at the Annecy International Film Festival, a new Chip 'n' Dale animated television show, which will be featured on the Disney+ streaming service. (insidethemagic.net/2019/06/disney-chip-dale-animated-series-ba1/)
Here's the first image of the show.
And here's the description given by Disney:
"The show is developed by Disney’s London-based animation team in collaboration with Xilam Animation in Paris. The series will be fully produced by Xilam, an award-winning independent production studio known around the world for visual invention and cartoon comedy. The 39 x seven-minute episodes will feature the return of Disney’s much-loved chipmunk troublemakers in a non-verbal, classic style comedy, following the ups and downs of two little creatures living life in the big city. Combining a traditional style of animation with contemporary, comedic narratives, Chip ‘n’ Dale is directed by Jean Cayrol and produced by Marc du Pontavice."

Oh, dear, they're really committed to that Paul Rudish artstyle, aren't they? Still, could be fun.

It's funny how the article you link to makes a point of mentioning the "Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers" series, and how it's not at all surprising that these characters are getting a new animated show... when this show clearly has nothing to do with "Rescue Rangers". It will obviously be in the vein of the original, theatrical Chip 'n' Dale shorts.

Eh... it looks like it could be entertaining or a big flop. We'll have to see. Also, I don't think the art style is too similar to that of the Rudish shorts. I'd say it's got even more of a contemporary vibe than that. I'm curious about the quote referring to it as a "non-verbal, classic style comedy". I've thought for some time that a series of non-verbal shorts featuring Oswald the Lucky Rabbit could be fun, but not Chip 'n' Dale. I like it when Chip 'n' Dale talk. They have somewhat funny voices and interesting personalities. I hope their personalities aren't lost in a cartoon with no talking.

I was thinking the same thing about "non-verbal". But then again, their voices were sped up so fast in the original shorts that you could often only barely (if at all) hear what they were saying. And the original shorts always made it clear what was going on through visuals, whether you understood the spoken lines or not. I'm thinking that may be what "non-verbal" means in this case. Eliminating their voices altogether feels idiotic.

Yeah, it would be fine if they had them talking like they did in some of the old shorts, but I feel like something would be lost if the voices were to be eliminated. I think that in the classic shorts, their voices added a layer of comedy to them. Hearing a squeaky voice say, "Knucklehead", which I'm pretty sure I remember Chip saying in one short, is pretty funny. Maybe not hilarious, but it certainly adds some humor.

I agree. Not that I'm a huge fan of these characters myself, but the voices and their fast-paced banter is certainly part of their appeal. And why eliminate something which is just amusing and doesn't stand in the way of the stories being understood visually anyway? So, I hope "non-verbal" allows for chipmunk chatter.

This is very much not the Paul Rudish style. It'd look much more appealing if it were. Instead they have Homer Simpson's face.
Xilam does decent stuff. It'll probably be fine enough. Thoroughly uninterested.

A shame that they're opting for this hideous CalArts-style again...It doesn't really remind me of the Rudish shorts, which (while still having a smilarly over-stylized look) actually featured surprisingly on-model versions of Chip and Dale.
I've always thought Chip and Dale were quite funny as adversaries (i.e. supporting characters) to Donald, in the same spirit as the nephews, Neighbor Jones, Gladstone and Uncle Scrooge would later be in the (shorter) comic stories. This series will clearly focus on Chip and Dale alone, which sounds much less interesting--although I'll say the fact that there seems to be somewhat of a renewed interest in Disney's classic stable of character is a positive.
But yeah, Chip and Dale are probably the least interesting characters out of the entire classic Disney cast. I would have rather seen Disney do a reboot of the old Donald Duck cartoons, or their Goofy cartoons (the Jack Kinney ones, with the entire world full of wacky Goofy-lookalikes!), with high-quality, on-model 2D animation like the upcoming Looney Tunes Cartoons.

They actually tried that in 2007 with the great Goofy short "How To Hook Up Your Home Theater". At the time they had several other classic-style shorts in development, including a Mickey Mouse one. But the Goofy cartoon apparently didn't make enough of a splash for them to make more outings with the classic characters.

Yeah, it was, but there hasn't really been a market for theatrical shorts in decades. I'm betting they had a hard time even judging how much money the Goofy short made. Though, Warner seems to be putting a lot into their new theatrical slash streaming slash TV shorts of the Looney Tunes.

I don't know if that's something that can be altered retroactively. If it is possible, maybe it could instead follow the range of different Woodchuck titles, from "Junior Woodchuck" to "Grand Mogul". But that's all less important than a header. I agree that right now the website looks a little too formal (although I don't know of changing that is necessarily gonna attract more members; the old DCF forum looked just about the same as this one (only less organized), and had far more members!

Det är verkligen jätteroligt att vår nya stadspark används. Vad som inte är lika roligt är att den förstörs.
Det här är bilder från den senaste skadegörelsen som har upptäckts i parken. Klotter och bänkar som blivit bortskruvade och stulna. Uppskruvade kopplingsdosor till belysningen som är förenat med livsfara. Dessutom har någon skruvat bort skruvar på en balk som håller skärmtaket på plats.
Skadegörelse och klotter är ett brott. Om du ser något ska det anmälas till polisen genom att ringa 114 14 eller genom en anmälan på polisens webbplats.
Det är kommunens ansvar att ta reda på klottret. Antingen får vi åtgärda det själva eller så får vi köpa in tjänsten. Det är verkligen onödiga pengar som går till att städa upp skadegörelsen. Skattepengar som skulle kunna gå till så mycket bättre saker. Håller du inte med?

VAD ÄR DIN BÄSTA SOMMARAKTIVTET FÖR BÄTTRE HÄLSA? Några av oss har haft semester, andra inte och någon kanske fortfarande har semestern att se fram emot. Här är 4 av de aktiviteter vi kopplar till sommar och semester som även kan verka extra gott för både kropp och själ! 1. Havsbada. Ett svalkande bad i havet kan minska smärta, lindra stress samt förbättra immunförsvaret och blodcirkulationen. Dessutom ökar utsöndringen av lyckohormoner när vi växlar mellan värme och kyla! 2. Dansa. Att röra på sig har många hälsofördelar, när vi dansar över vi dessutom upp vår koordination och frigör samtidigt dopamin och serotonin – hormoner som höjer lyckokänslan. 3. Skogsbada. Spendera tid i naturen, läs en bok, njut av solvarma klippor eller promenera i skogen. Ny svensk forskning visar att naturen har en lugnande effekt på oss och kan därför hjälpa oss att minska stress. 4. Sov gott. För lite sömn kan i förlängningen orsaka magproblem samt försämra vår förmåga att fokusera och lära. Ta tillfället i akt, sov ut och ge kroppen en chans till återhämtning! Oavsett om du är på semester eller precis kommit tillbaka till jobbet så går det lika bra att ta till sig och göra mer av det som får oss att må bra. Hitta dina egna favoriter och förläng sommaren!

Under våren har vi i serien Har vi åkt till Mars än? följt forskningen som kommer leda till att vi sätter en person på Mars. Vad säger ni, ska vi köra på ett tag till? ✨✨
I tidigare avsnitt har vi genom olika frågeställningar försökt ta reda på vad som behöver lösas innan vi åker.
🔴 Johan Köhler på Rymdstyrelsen och astronauten Jessica Meir på NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration och nästa svensk i rymden pratade om vad som krävs för att kunna åka till Mars.
⚖️ Vi pratade med Chris Lamar, VD för Lunar Embassy, Earth som säljer mark på Mars och andra himlakroppar, och vi åkte till Tallinn och träffade Katrin Nyman Metcalf, professor i juridik på TalTech - Tallinn University of Technology som förklarade om lagar i rymden och varför det kanske ändå inte går att sälja mark på andra himlakroppar än jorden.
🛰 Vi träffade den private astronauten Richard Garriott de Cayeux, Rymdstyrelsens Kristin Dannenberg och Sally Richardson från Northrop Grumman Corporation och pratade om International Space Station, the Lunar Gateway och framtida månbaser.
🚀 Kan vi åka i ljusets hastighet än? frågade vi den teoretiska astropartikelfysikern Mattias Blennow på KTH Royal Institute of Technology och hur en raketmotor fungerar pratade vi om med chefsingenjör Li Forsberg på GKN Aerospace Sweden. Och så diskuterade vi nanosolsegel för interstellära resor med professor Avi Loeb på Harvard University.
👽 Har vi hittat liv i rymden än? försökte vi reda ut
tillsammans med Clas Svahn på UFO-Sverige och Archives for the Unexplained - AFU och astrobiologen Sandra Siljeström på RISE Research Institutes of Sweden.
🎋Vi pratade med Trent Smith på NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration om the Veggie, ett projekt för odling av grönsaker på internationella rymdstationen ISS. Åsa Berggren, professor i ekologi på SLU berättade om insekter som föda och Julie Gold, biträdande professor i biomaterial vid Chalmers University of Technology berättade om möjligheter att odla kött som både föda och fungerande organ.
Vilket är ert favoritavsnitt?
Och vad tycker ni nu vi ska göra program om?

The Space Shuttle Discovery, mated to NASA's 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (SCA), takes to the air for its ferry flight back to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The spacecraft, with a crew of six, was launched into a 57-degree high inclination orbit from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, at 3:23 p.m., 9 September 1994. The mission featured the study of clouds and the atmosphere with a laser beaming system called Lidar In-Space Technology Experiment (LITE), and the first untethered space walk in ten years. A Spartan satellite was also deployed and later retrieved in the study of the sun's corona and solar wind. The mission was scheduled to end Sunday, 18 September, but was extended one day to continue science work. Bad weather at the Kennedy Space Center on 19 September, forced a one-day delay to September 20, with a weather divert that day to Edwards. Mission commander was Richard Richards, the pilot Blaine Hammond, while mission specialists were Jerry Linenger, Susan Helms, Carl Meade, and Mark Lee. September 1994

If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that part will be construed to reflect the parties' original intent, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect. A waiver by either party of any term or condition of this Agreement or any breach thereof, in any one instance, will not waive such term or condition or any subsequent breach thereof. This Agreement and all of Your rights and obligations hereunder will not be assignable or transferable by You without the prior written consent of ProBoards.

You acknowledge and agree that any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement or infringement of proprietary or other third-party rights by You would cause irreparable injury to ProBoards and ProBoards' licensors and suppliers, and would therefore entitle ProBoards or ProBoards' licensors or suppliers, as the case may be, to injunctive relief. The headings in this Agreement are for the purpose of convenience only and shall not limit, enlarge, or affect any of the covenants, terms, conditions or provisions of this Agreement.

"Success is an iceberg."
To all of you who, like me, gets some bomb ass impostor syndrome.
The fleeting glory you get to see on any success is always held up by hidden foundations that are far greater, rougher, messier and more difficult than any public facade can let on.
Sadly that's often forgotten.
People think following somebody on social media means they know them. People think looking at a photo of someone's work makes them experts. People think just because they only ever see the tip of the iceberg, it must be all it took to succeed. Perhaps the saddest of all, people think that simply being free to comment online means their words have been granted validity regardless of competence.
With all that noise going on, it's so easy to feel like an impostor. To feel worthless. To feel like you don't deserve to be successful.
So it's important that we remember to believe in our own work, our time spent and our achievements. It's important to remember exactly what shit talkers, gatekeepers, armchair experts and the like are worth: less than the dirt beneath our feet.
I can only be an example as a costume maker and martial artist.
People see me when I'm switched on: performing on stage, posing for photos, smiling for a selfie, sparring in a match, make posts to hype up my day, reporting the results of my crafting progress.
What people don't get to see is when the phone is off: the failures, the fatigue, the injuries, the recovery, the repetition, the sleepless nights, the breaking points, the communication with my support circle, the self care, the daily goals, the frustration, the re-attempts, my personal bonds with my team, the learning of new skills, the relearning of old skills, the balance of expenses, the balance of life, developing the mental image for success, building good healthy habits, setting priorities, the struggle to stay motivated...etc...
My success is held up by boring things nobody sees and I can't possibly show it all in photos or words.
No one can.
Some people will try use that as an opening to talk you down. But the person who knows your efforts best is YOU. Your hard work is your truth. No insignificant, surface scratching hater comment can hope to even hold a candle to that.
And nobody who's truly comfortable, confident or successful will ever try to bring you down. That's because they know exactly how much shit goes on beneath the surface and they'll always try to bring you up with them.
Only people beneath you try to drag you down, desperately afraid you'd drift out of the reach of their incompetence.
Think about it. Have you ever been shit talked by anybody noteworthy? I haven't. Ever.
Next time you get a hater comment, click on their profile. I guarantee you. It'll be a nobody.
Success is an iceberg. Unfortunately most of it is destined to be submerged. But. Trust in your own work. Trust in your support circle. Trust in your time. Trust in your failures. Trust in your success.
Hard work doesn't lie. Hard work never lies.

Jag kan inte släppa det här med Metro. I förra veckan kunde tidningen Metros personal inte komma in på sin arbetsplats, eftersom dörren var låst. Hyresvärden hade satt en lapp på dörren om att de anställda inte hade tillgång till lokalerna. Skälet till den låsta dörren var att bolaget inte betalat sin hyra. Och i fredags började ett rykte cirkulera att tidningen skulle läggas ner. När personalen gick och frågade en chef bekräftade han att Metro skulle läggas ned. Men det var inte meningen att de anställda skulle få veta detta förrän det skulle bli offentligt igår måndag. Nej, jag kan inte släppa det här med Metro. Man kan tycka att ägaren agerar vedervärdigt gentemot sina anställda, men att det ändå bara är en tidning som upphör. Att det givetvis är tragiskt för de journalister och andra medarbetare som nu förlorar jobbet men att detta ändå är en del av världen som vi känner den. Men ändå finns det nånting här som jag inte kan släppa. Bolagets ledning meddelar att Metro.se nu ska bli en debattsajt. Tidningens ägare Christen Ager-Hanssen säger att ”journalistik är ett gammeldags och ineffektivt sätt att producera content”. Istället ska nu privatpersoner och företag för mellan 1 000 - 50 000 kronor kunna publicera ”debattartiklar”. Ursäkta? Debattartiklar? Det han pratar om är köpta annonser. Inom journalistiken har alltid funnits en skarp gräns mellan annonser och redaktionell text. Det är denna knivskarpa gräns som gör att det är skillnad på ett annonsblad och just en tidning. En skarp gräns mellan det utrymme som någon har köpt för att få ut sitt budskap och det som är journalistik. Och denna skillnad är inte bara något som angår journalister. Som läsare bryr vi oss vem som är avsändare. När vi får ett reklamblad i brevlådan vet vi att avsändaren inte är intresserad av att ge hela sanningen om sin produkt utan att det enbart handlar om att få oss att köpa produkten – genom att luras om så krävs. En journalistisk granskning är något helt annat. Och som läsare vet vi och känner denna skillnad. Att kalla köpt utrymme för ”debattartiklar” visar en flagrant okunnighet om denna grundläggande princip. Naturligtvis står det Metros ägare fritt att göra denna rockad – att sluta göra tidning och istället göra annonsblad. Men man kan inte fortsätta kalla sig tidning. Och det är värt att upprepa detta - i den utsträckning som man kommer att fortsätta publicera texter så är Metro fr o m nu just ett annonsblad. Och man gör heller ingen hemlighet av att det handlar om att man har tröttnat på ”fack och kollektivavtal och sådant skräp” som Metros ägare Christen Ager-Hanssen uttrycker sig i Dagens Media. Enligt Metros ägare är alltså förklaringen att ”journalistik är ett gammeldags och ineffektivt sätt att producera content”. Smaka på det ordet. Content. Så talar en person totalt okunnig om verksamheten i det företag han äger. Men Ager-Hansens okunnighet om den grundläggande skillnaden mellan annonsblad och tidningar gör inte att skillnaden slutar existera. Och det som denne Ager-Hansen inte tycks begripa är att publicistik i slutänden alltid handlar om förtroende. Och att detta förtroende bygger på det unika som en tidning står för - den självständiga journalistiken. Som läsare bryr vi oss vem som är avsändare. Men denna enkla sanning begriper inte Ager-Hansen. Han har bara tröttnat på ”facket och kollektivavtal och sådant skräp”. Han vill ha ”content”. När Trump och hans hejdukar angriper media för att leverera fake news så möter det hård kritik. Men angreppen på journalistiken tar sig många uttryck. Ager-Hansen är samma andas barn. Ager-Hansen talar om "Metros nya inriktning". Och han får givetvis ge ut annonsblad. Men vem som skulle vara intresserad att betala 50 000 för att få en text publicerad i Annonsbladet Metro, det vete gudarna. /Maria Robsahm 13 augusti 2019 ---- www.dagensmedia.se/medier/medier/ager-hanssen-bekraftar-metros-nya-inriktning/ |

En ateist satt bredvid en liten flicka på ett flygplan. Han vände sig mot henne
och sa: - Vill du prata en stund? Flygresan går snabbare om man pratar med någon.
Den lilla flickan, som just börjat läsa en bok svarade den främmande mannen: - Vad vill du prata om då?
- Åh, jag vet inte, vad sägs om att det inte finns någon Gud, himmel, helvete eller liv efter döden? sa mannen med ett finurligt leende.
- OK, sa flickan. - Det skulle vara intressant att prata om det, men låt mig ställa en fråga först: En häst, en ko och ett rådjur äter alla gräs.
Varför bajsar då hästen klumpar, kossan stora blöta blajor och rådjuren små hårda kulor?
Mannen, uppenbart förvånad över den lilla flickans intelligens, tänker ett tag och säger: - Hmm, ingen aning!
Flickan sade: - Känner du dig verkligen kvalificerad att diskutera om Gud, himmel och helvete, och livet efter döden om du inte vet ett skit?👉🤣

Under våren har vi i serien Har vi åkt till Mars än? följt forskningen som kommer leda till att vi sätter en person på Mars. Vad säger ni, ska vi köra på ett tag till? ✨✨
I tidigare avsnitt har vi genom olika frågeställningar försökt ta reda på vad som behöver lösas innan vi åker.
🔴 Johan Köhler på Rymdstyrelsen och astronauten Jessica Meir på NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration och nästa svensk i rymden pratade om vad som krävs för att kunna åka till Mars.
⚖️ Vi pratade med Chris Lamar, VD för Lunar Embassy, Earth som säljer mark på Mars och andra himlakroppar, och vi åkte till Tallinn och träffade Katrin Nyman Metcalf, professor i juridik på TalTech - Tallinn University of Technology som förklarade om lagar i rymden och varför det kanske ändå inte går att sälja mark på andra himlakroppar än jorden.
🛰 Vi träffade den private astronauten Richard Garriott de Cayeux, Rymdstyrelsens Kristin Dannenberg och Sally Richardson från Northrop Grumman Corporation och pratade om International Space Station, the Lunar Gateway och framtida månbaser.
🚀 Kan vi åka i ljusets hastighet än? frågade vi den teoretiska astropartikelfysikern Mattias Blennow på KTH Royal Institute of Technology och hur en raketmotor fungerar pratade vi om med chefsingenjör Li Forsberg på GKN Aerospace Sweden. Och så diskuterade vi nanosolsegel för interstellära resor med professor Avi Loeb på Harvard University.
👽 Har vi hittat liv i rymden än? försökte vi reda ut
tillsammans med Clas Svahn på UFO-Sverige och Archives for the Unexplained - AFU och astrobiologen Sandra Siljeström på RISE Research Institutes of Sweden.
🎋Vi pratade med Trent Smith på NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration om the Veggie, ett projekt för odling av grönsaker på internationella rymdstationen ISS. Åsa Berggren, professor i ekologi på SLU berättade om insekter som föda och Julie Gold, biträdande professor i biomaterial vid Chalmers University of Technology berättade om möjligheter att odla kött som både föda och fungerande organ.
Vilket är ert favoritavsnitt?
Och vad tycker ni nu vi ska göra program om?

Den 25:e smäller det!
Då ska vi slå alla tiders rekord...
Redan är 347 tipskuponger sålda. Jätteevenemanget Lerköksträffen är tillbaks i Hembygdsparken och ängelholmsprofilen Kenneth "Kals" Pettersson kontaktade oss och undrade om vi ville ställa upp. Klart vi ville och vill!
Vi hade tänkt starta säsongen första söndagen i september men när detta förslag kom på tal var det självklart att ställa upp.
För nån månad sedan var 347 kuponger bokade. Skulle tro att vi kan bli uppemot 1000 som går tipspromenaden med tanke på att drygt 1000 intresserade förutom de anmälda ekipagen kommer till parken, dessutom ett par hundra "vanliga tipspromenerare". Vilken fest det kommer att bli!
Rundan blir en kort runda, upp till Pytteskogen och tillbaks via lite kringelikrokar i parken förbi de flesta attraktionerna, ca 1 km lång.
Här nedan lite längre ner lite info från Lergöksträffens hemsida.
Klicka på bilden med loggan ovan eller här >>> (på tipsprom.se) så kommer ni till Lergöksträffens hemsida om ni vill läsa ännu mer om arrangemanget.
Vi kommer förstås att ha finfina priser, finare än nånsin då mer än hälften av intäkterna kommer att gå tillbaks till promenerarna i form av vinster.Temat blir givetvis veteranfordon, hälften av frågorna har nån sådan anknytning.
Väl mött söndagen den 25:e augusti kl 10-14. Obs förlängda starttiden.
Info från Lergöksträffens hemsida:
Vilka är vi i Lergökaträffen?
Efter att vi funnits sju år på Valhall Park och ett år på Vallåkraträffen är vi nu tillbaka till Ängelholms Hembygdspark efter mångas önskningar. Trevligare miljö för en veteranfordonsträff finns nog inte.
Vi har även femton års erfarenhet av rally och veteranfordonsträffar i Hembygdsparken.
Vem är vi? jo, gamla stofiler, men med superkraft att göra detta till århundrades evenemang.
Bo-Arne, Kals/ Kenneth, Berit, Bengt-Åke.

Now of course, the question is: why on Earth did I attribute A McDuck by Any Other Name to Vicar?! I must have had my head high in the clouds.
I See it.
