I need someone to convert my 2D hand drawings into 3D cad for 3D printing. It'll be a small accessory made of 3 pieces, simple design. Any companies provide such service? Any RS members can help me for a fee ?

check with one of the local graphics printing companies. a few offer CAD services and conversion tool services (not sure of pricing or if they go 2d to 3d)

The feels...

Quote:
Singer Ed Sheeran helped to fulfill Triona Priestley's final wish on Sunday, serenading the Dublin teen over the phone.

Priestley, who had been battling cystic fibrosis since childhood, passed away minutes after receiving the call, reports Independent.ie. Sheeran sang the 15-year-old's favorite song, "Little Bird," as she listened on.

This touching exchange was made possible by a Twitter campaign. When Priestley's health took a dramatic turn earlier in the week, family and friends logged on and posted Tweets directed at Sheeran with the hashtag #SongForTri. By Sunday night the hashtag was trending on Twitter, with thousands of users trying to contact the singer.

Soon after #SongForTri became popular, Sheeran's management contacted Priestley's friend Lucy Hanlon to arrange a call between the girl and her idol.

"Ed rang Triona and personally sang Little Bird to her as she took her last breaths," Hanlon wrote on Facebook, according to the Daily Mail. "Triona left us listening to her idol surrounded by all the people who loved her. People's respect is incredible. We would like to thank everyone."

After a long fight with her illness, Priestley passed in the company of her loved ones following the serenade. Upon hearing the news, Sheeran Tweeted in memory of the 15-year-old and the impression she left on him.

Many satisfying hours have been spent throughout my life on a toilet with an Archie comic.




Quote:
(CNN) -- Since 1941, comic book fans have followed the exploits of teenaged Archie Andrews and his friends. This July, they'll find out how he dies.
"Life With Archie" #36 hits stores on July 16, and CNN can reveal exclusively that it tells the story of how Archie sacrifices himself to save a friend.
Few details are known, but it seems fitting that Archie would go out a hero. The 37th issue one week later will end the series.

Pet owners warned about dog park fire ant invasion | CTV Vancouver News

Quote:
A dog park in Richmond, B.C., is warning pet owners to take caution as a fire ant invasion sweeps through parks across the province.

European fire ants have taken hold at McDonald Beach Park and officials say the pests pose a health and safety threat to humans and pets alike. The tiny ants deliver a stinging, itchy bite if their nest is disturbed and are prone to swarming if their nests are disturbed. “So it’s like a bee sting but by the time you realize you’re in trouble you’re probably going to have a lot of ants on you,” said Jen Grenz of the Metro Vancouver Invasive Species Council. Richmond’s McDonald Beach Park is one of 23 across B.C. dealing with an infestation of stinging ants.

Grenz says the biggest risk is having multiple stings, which can lead to an allergic reaction – or anaphylaxis. “You can go into shock from the venom,” she said.
Brenda Stockel, a dog walker with Bark and Fly Pet Services, says dogs who deviate from the marked trails are bit frequently – and severely.
“They just instantly crawl up their legs, they get caught in their fur and between their paw pads and just keep biting repeatedly,” she told CTV News.
Stockel said many dog walkers have altered their route to avoid the wooded area where the ants are falling off of tree branches. “If they fall off a tree onto your shirt they will just keep biting you. And it stings. You’ll get welts,” she said.

The Richmond park is one of 23 across B.C. that is experiencing a problem with the tiny red-brown menaces, which are just four millimetres long.
Virtually every municipality in Metro Vancouver has experienced these ants in the past two years, and the problem is particularly bad in Richmond, Burnaby, North Vancouver and Vancouver. The iconic VanDusen Botanical Gardens in Vancouver have even erected a sign warning visitors to the problem.
Grenz says eradicating the ants is very difficult and labour-intensive because the problem is a moving target: ants hitch a ride to new locations during soil remediation projects, including land development. She’d like to see a provincial eradication plan, as well as soil remediation legislation that deals specifically with invasive plants and pests. “The ants love to be in the places we love to be -- our backyards, community gardens, parks,” Grenz said. “The major challenge is that there’s no silver bullet.”

Metro Vancouver has released a list of tips for people to keep safe if they encounter fire ants:
- Do not move ants, plants, soil and debris material from infested areas
- Avoid remaining stationary in infested area
- European fire ants can be aggressive in defending their territory. If nests are disturbed the ants may swarm and deliver painful stings
- Infants, children and pets may be more affected by stings
- If experiencing a stronger reaction than minor swelling, redness, discomfort and itching call HealthLinkBC at 811 for symptom advice. An extreme allergic anaphylactic reaction can be life-threatening and requires emergency care.

For information call 604-276-4316

rofl they're doing a death of Archie issue?

Archie Comics has revealed that beloved character Archie Andrews will die in "Life with Archie" #36 in July. The "Life with Archie" series tells stories of future scenarios for Archie and his friends in Riverdale. The present-day Archie stories will not be affected.

My girlfriend got the "Archie Marries" super fancy edition thing and it was kinda B/S. I'll spoiler this just in case but it's not really much of a spoiler.

Vaisakhi 2014 Vancouver Parade

Metro Vancouver is home to two large Vaisakhi Parades to choose from. The Vancouver Vaisakhi Parade happening on April 12, 2014. A day that marks both the New Year and the anniversary of one of Sikhism’s most important events, the establishment of Khalsa in 1699.

The parade attracts about around 100,000 spectators and is the largest parade held in the City of Vancouver outside the downtown core.

One of the aspects of the parade that attracts people from every culture is the celebration of Sikh cuisine and other foods. There will be free food (samosas, sweets, pizza, subs etc…) that can be found along the entire parade route.

Vancouver Vaisakhi Parade 2014

Where: South Vancouver, Little India

The parade starts at 11am at the Ross Street Temple (8000 Ross St at 64th), moves south on Ross Street to SE Marine Drive, then west to Main Street, north to 49th Avenue, east to Fraser Street, south to 57th Avenue, east to Ross Street and then returns to the Temple.

When: Saturday April 12, 2014

Time: 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. (expect the parade to reach 49th & Main around noon, maybe later)

Stephen Colbert taking over Lettermans show (Dave said he's retiring next year)

I was hoping Craig Ferguson would get it but i guess his style is better suited for late late night

but still :/



BBC News - Stephen Colbert to replace retiring David Letterman

Quote:
“Simply being a guest on David Letterman’s show has been a highlight of my career,” said Colbert. “I never dreamed that I would follow in his footsteps, though everyone in late night follows Dave’s lead.”

Adding, “I’m thrilled and grateful that CBS chose me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go grind a gap in my front teeth.”
