This force isapphed alternately on every side of the piston, ten occasions in a second.The control of such forces requires mechanism which performs withthe utmost precision and with absolute certainty, and it is for thisreason that the speed and the economical operating- of a locomotivedepend so significantly on the proportions of the valves and the valve-gear by which the distribution of steam in the cylinders iscontrolled. The engraving (Fig. two)^^ on p. 133 represents the cab finish of alocomotive of the New York Central &amp Hudson River Railroad,looking forward from the tender, and shows the attachments bywhich the engineer works the engine.* This gives an notion ofthe number of keys on which he has to play in operating such amachine.

caption: I am no one’s father. (But?)

Panel two: IMG_0587.jpg — intense close-up on infant Ema’s face.

caption: But unless or till I succumb, it is my duty
to warn you that *youngsters are dangerous.* Keep away
from them whenever possible.

Panel 3: img_0811.jpg — Ema in a green hoodie in front of
one hundred dangling wooden placards.

caption: If you hear any pals or sexual partners talk about
how their “biological clocks are ticking,” leave the region
and wash your hands. If they *bring* any kids with them,
immediately evacuate all childless adults from the vicinity
and notify the regional authorities.

Panel 4: IMG_8976.jpg — Ema peeking about the bole of a
tree, with a creepy statue in the background.

caption: Most people are aware of the troubles children
can trigger, but many do not recognize the complete extent
of the danger, and so do not take sufficient
precautions. Fortunately, kids do come with a quantity
of warning indicators to ward off potential adult
caretakers.

Panel five: img_0276 roppongi edit.jpg — Ema’s face covered in red paint(?)

caption: Some of the greater recognized examples incorporate the
smells and noise…

Panel 6: HIK_1878.jpg — Ema standing on prime of a statue,
hunting down at us.

caption: Much less clear problems: They are also
codependent, irrational, evil creatures, unable to
negotiate or delay gratification. Anyone who shares a
household with a kid for lengthy will slave their days
away to slake ever-changing whims.

Panel 7: IMG_0452.jpg — Ema with a blue onesie over her
head. Most likely the cutest in the set.

caption: Kids are precision engineered to brainwash
you into loving them.

Panel 8: DSC_4229.jpg — Ema operating to a seesaw in a park.

caption: They will break your items, and break the
bank, and break your dreams, but practically nothing is worse than
the techniques they break your heart.

Panel 9: HIK_4865.jpg — Ema seen through a kaleidoscope.

caption: Kids are the most insidious of parasites:
The longer they stay with you, the deeper their
tendrils develop into you, cinching your ribs tighter and
tighter around your lungs, slithering into your
nervous method until you can scarcely believe about
anything else — and then they develop up and leave you.

Panel 10: HIK_0131.jpg — Ema at a shrine, pouring water
over one particular hand.

caption: And the hole they leave behind just bleeds and
bleeds…

Panel 11: HIK_9941.jpg — Ema wearing an auburn wig.

caption: This is the worst element of all, some thing that
even most in-patients who have tested good for
children may possibly not recognize for years.

Panel 12: HIK_9841.jpg — black and white Ema holding her
hand up to block the camera.

caption: Simply because you and your kid will drive each
other crazy. *Someone’s* life is receiving ruined, and
you will be terrified that it will not be yours.

caption: You will get in a stupid fight about creating the bed or
anything and you’ll both start off screaming and throwing
items, and next thing you know it hits me that I’m
becoming my mother, I’m perpetuating the cycle.

Panel 13: HIK_9310.jpg — Sick Ema in jacket and face mask.

caption: Young children are so fragile, so malleable. Soft
lumps of clay that mold to the contours of your hand
no matter how you try *not* to mold them.

caption: After all my mistakes, will she be okay? Will
she grow up all appropriate?

Panel 14: IMG_0567.jpg — singer with guitar and mic.

caption: Could the way she sings in the bathroom be a
sign that she’ll develop up to be a musician?

Panel 15: IMG_8976.JPG — A dancer.

Panel 16: _HIK8727_014-2.jpg — model leaning over glass and handrail.

Panel 17: HIK_5078 raw edit.JPG — kabuki(?) performer on stage.

caption: Some sort of artist, surely.

caption: …Will she be pleased?

Panel 19: Huge, full-page shot. HIK_5285.JPG — Mysterious portrait of Ema
in a hat and daisy dress at evening, looking directly into the camera.

caption: …She isn’t even my daughter. I’ve only met
her once. But I currently adore her so considerably it hurts. I
be concerned possessing a kid of my own would *destroy* me.
