Ventress' Shuttle

When the Outer Rim police pulls up to Ventress’ shuttle (“Cut your engines, drop the coffin and exit the vehicle on the starboard side”) she’s not impressed: “Two milkshakes, one strawberry, the other chocolate, three flapjacks and a Sports Illustrated!”
The police officer is taken aback. ”Excuse me?!”
But Ventress is determined: “You heard me the first time bro!”
The cop has never heard of the dark side. “You don’t know who you’re dealing with!”
Ventress is hungry. “You don’t know who you’re dealing with!!”

By the time this encounter is ended Ventress sadly still hasn't had breakfast.
“I want my flappies!” She has to stop at Urban Fare’s to finally eat.

Lego candleholder




What happens when you attach a lit candle to a rotating Lego candleholder? Will the flame fade or will its shape change? Our motorized candleholder turns approx. 300 times per min. We photographed the flame while the candle was turning and obtained these fascinating photos. It appears that the shape of the flame deforms due to the lateral movement of the candle.  We used GraphicConverter to play around with the colours.
