Do it in the dark in Cape Town: things to do to celebrate Earth Hour
Fazielah Williams
Fazielah Williams has lived in and loved her Mother City since birth. Having lived all over the Peninsula during her childhood, she now calls the picturesque City Bowl home and likes nothing more than watching the sun set over Table Bay from the window of her apartment.
A lover of the arts and proud Cape Town fanatic, Fazielah began her writing career by spending many hours as a child conjuring fantastical stories that featured independent heroines from faraway lands who saved the Prince instead. This Capetonian princess has enjoyed stints as a magical arts PRO and TV publicist before finding her calling as a travel writer.
When not waxing lyrical about the Fairest Cape's most loved attractions and activities and embarking on unexpected adventures, Fazielah can usually be found taking in a show at one of the City's fabulous theatres.
Mother City lovers, it's time to dim the lights and do great things in the dark in Cape Town for the annual celebration of Earth Hour on Saturday 23 March, 2013.
Earth Hour is the largest mass global participation event, in which people the world over switch off their lights for one hour, to reflect on our impact on the environment and renew our commitment to protecting our planet.
A project spearheaded by the World Wide Fund for Nature's Australian division in 2006 to support efforts to manage climate change, Earth Hour has grown to include hundreds of millions of people in over 7 000 cities and towns, and 152 countries in 2012.
Cape Town, the responsible Mother City, is filled with wonderful places and events to celebrate this amazing initiative. Whether you're stargazing on Signal Hill, enjoying unplugged acoustic concerts around the city or just sharing a romantic candlelit dinner at home with your beloved, there is plenty to do.
Do it in the dark with me with the following Earth Hour celebrations in Cape Town:
V&A Waterfront's Unplugged Earth Hour Concert
Experience the classical sounds of the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra onstage at the V&A Waterfront's Amphitheatre, unplugged.
All non-essential lights around the Amphitheatre will be switched off during the concert and concert-goers will receive a free non-drip candle, so don't forget to pack those lighters!
Location: V&A Waterfront Amphitheatre, Cape Town

Steenberg Vineyards' Earth Hour Night Picnic

I'm curious to fnd out what our UK members think about Tom Sharpe.
I found him many years ago when, having completed the entire P.G. Wodehouse series and all of Evelyn Waugh's comic novels, was looking for another Brit author along the same vein.
I found a bunch of Sharpe paperbacks in a remainder bin somewhere and bought them all. I must say that I did enjoy them all, some (the Wilt series) more than others. It is amazing how long he goes between books. I haven't seen anything new in the states since "The Midden." Has he published anything since then?

Hmmm...what does the "C" stand for?
Unlike other golf leagues, the handicap system in the CGA is really simple:
Other rules include:
Use of the term "mulligan" is prohibited because President Obama has called dibs on it as his official 2012 campaign slogan
The CPA is a green-friendly league that is constantly making efforts to have as minimal a carbon footprint as possible. As such, all golf carts are fueled by pedal power.
For transportation from hole to hole the president gets to use a special golf cart popularly known as Air Force One
Per the first lady's instructions, all grass captured from the lawnmowers is recycled so it can be served in the nation's school cafeterias
Because "sand trap" may be offensive to middle east Muslims, they will be referred to as an "oasis of jihad"

At Home & In the Garden
Car Maintenance
Not only do vehicles generate air pollutants that are harmful to the environment, but vehicle maintenance also creates wastes, including used oil, antifreeze, batteries, and old tires. Proper maintenance of your vehicle and proper waste disposal can help reduce the impact of vehicles on the environment.
- Winterize your vehicle by checking your air filter and fluid levels, checking tires for tread wear and proper inflation, and checking the condition of your windshield wipers. Be sure to check your car for drips and leaks. Properly maintaining your vehicle will reduce pollution and replacement parts, and help you keep safe on the road.
- If you change your own motor oil, collect and store the used oil in a sturdy plastic container and take it to a recycling center. Dumping oil down storm drains or on the ground can contaminate ground water. Also consider using refined oil in your vehicle.
- Purchase extended-life antifreeze for your car. Most extended-life coolants do not contain silicates and phosphates-common in conventional antifreeze-that can be abrasive to water pump seals. Take your used antifreeze to a recycling center. Call auto stores and your local government environmental agency to find the recycling center nearest you.
- Take used or damaged car batteries to auto stores that stock or repair lead-acid batteries for safe disposal. The batteries contain toxic amounts of lead and acid. They are banned from many solid waste collection programs and all municipal solid waste landfills.
- Return used car tires to retailers or wholesalers that recycle or retread them. Tires are banned from most landfills, and illegally dumped tires become breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other pests.
- Join or form car/vanpools for traveling to work or school. Fewer cars on the road means less pollution in the environment.
- Make sure your car has a clean air filter-a dirty air filter can increase your car's fuel consumption by as much as 10 percent.
- Instead of disposing of a low-value car, offer it to charitable institutions in your area. The gift will be tax-deductible.
eCycling at Home
Electronics are one of the fastest growing portions of America's trash. Recycling your old electronics is not only smart, but also good for the environment. Learn how to reuse and recycle your old computers, TVs, and cell phones to reduce waste.
- Before replacing a computer because it no longer fits your needs, investigate enhancing the computer's capacity by installing a hard disk drive, chip, or memory-expansion card. Such modifications can now be done with little know-how using the help of the manufacturer or a do-it-yourself guide.
- Consider buying a used computer. They are cheaper, sold by major manufacturers, and often come with a warranty.
- Donate your old computer to a school. Many schools are in need of computers and will be able to make good use of your old machine. If the computer isn't working, some schools can refurbish computers by in-house technicians.
- Take your used printer ink cartridge to a company that remanufactures cartridges for reuse. Many companies that refurbish the cartridges will offer store credit for your used cartridge.
- No matter how old, video games and video game equipment can be sold to many electronics collectors. Another option is to donate old video games to youth charities.
- Old electronics (CD players, DVDs, VCRs) make great donations to charitable agencies that provide holiday gifts to low income families. Try trading old CDs or DVDs with friends or donating them to charitable organizations, nursing homes, libraries, or hospitals.
- Buy rechargeable batteries. They can be used for longer periods and will likely be less expensive than disposable batteries in the long run. When using rechargeable batteries, be sure to follow the instructions. The instructions may suggest charging the battery fully before use, otherwise, the battery's lifetime may be diminished.
- Consider using a digital camera. They create less waste for disposal than traditional cameras because disks can be reused and undesirable pictures can be deleted.
Tips for the Holidays
Holiday are a great time for getting together with family and friends. Holiday parties and other activities present many opportunities to reduce waste through reuse and recycling.
- After the holidays, look for ways to recycle your tree instead of sending it to a landfill. Check with your community solid waste department and find out if they collect and mulch trees. Your town might be able to use chippings from mulched trees for hiking trails or beachfront erosion barriers.
- Buy a potted tree and plant it after the holidays.
- Have a create your own decorations party! Invite family and friends to create holiday decorations such as ornaments made from old greeting cards or cookie dough, garlands made from strung popcorn or cranberries, wreaths made from artificial greens and flowers, and potpourri made from kitchen spices such as cinnamon and cloves.
- Turn off or unplug holiday lights during the day. Doing so will not only save energy, but will also help your lights last longer.
- If you're buying new greeting cards this holiday season, send recycled-content greeting cards. Buying recycled encourages manufacturers to make more recycled-content products available. Also consider sending electronic cards, and remember to recycle any paper cards you receive.
- Think "green" while shopping holiday and birthday sales. Try to buy items with minimal packaging and/or made with recycled content. Check product labels to determine an item's recyclability and whether it is made from recycled materials.
- Consider the durability of a product before you buy it as a gift. Cheaper, less durable items often wear out quickly, creating waste and costing you money. Look for items that embody the concept of reuse. For example: wooden toys made from scrap wood, craft kits that take advantage of used goods and discards, and drawing boards that can be erased and reused.
- Thousands of paper and plastic shopping bags end up in landfills every year. Reduce the number of bags thrown out by bringing reusable cloth bags for holiday gift shopping. Tell store clerks you don't need a bag for small or oversized purchases. Use reusable cloth bags instead of disposable ones for trick-or-treating.
- Wrap gifts in recycled or reused wrapping paper or funny papers. Also remember to save or recycle used wrapping paper. Give gifts that don't require much packaging, such as concert tickets or gift certificates.
- Donate the older toys that your children no longer use to charities. Also check with local libraries. A number of public libraries have extended their children's section to include a lending collection of toys, games, puzzles, and musical instruments.
- Many battery sales occur during the holiday season. Buy rechargeable batteries to accompany your electronic gifts, and consider giving a battery charger as well. Rechargeable batteries reduce the amount of potentially harmful materials thrown away, and can save money in the long run.
- When giving flowers as gifts, consider buying long-lasting silk flowers, potted plants, or live bushes, shrubs, or trees that can be planted in the spring as gifts.
- Bake cookies or other goodies for your friends and love ones and package them in reusable and/or recyclable containers as gifts. Homemade goodies show how much you care and help you avoid packaging waste.
- If you host a party, set the table with cloth napkins and reusable dishes, glasses, and silverware. Consider renting more formal tableware that you might not use very often. Also save and reuse party hats, decorations, and favors.
- After holiday festivities, put leftovers in recyclable containers, and share them with family, friends, or others. Donate whole, untouched leftovers from parties to a local food bank or homeless shelter.
- Where possible, compost leftover food scraps, leaves, and grass clippings.
- After parties, fill your dishwasher to capacity before running it. You will run fewer cycles, which saves energy.
- Wash and reuse empty glass and plastic jars, milk jugs, coffee cans, dairy tubs, and other similar containers that would otherwise get thrown away. These containers can be used to store leftovers as well as buttons, nails, or other loose items.
- Make the most of your jack o' lantern. Use the removed meat to make pumpkin pie or muffins and roast the seeds as a fun holiday snack. When the holiday is over, cut up your carved pumpkin before it spoils and toss it in the compost bin.
- Why purchase costumes that you will probably only use once and then throw away? Instead, use old clothes or buy used clothes from a consignment shop to make your costume.
- Consider donating old costumes to local amateur theater productions, including school performances and shows put on by charitable organizations. Another option is to donate costumes to a costume rental service.
Home Improvement
When choosing materials to improve or remodel your home, try to buy recycled products. Using recycled products helps reduce the amount of material going to landfills. Flooring, insulation, plastic lumber, woodwork, shingles, and many garden/lawn products are made from recycled materials.
- If your house or apartment was built before 1978, it is likely to still have lead-based paint on walls and other surfaces. Lead in the environment is especially harmful to children and pregnant women. Before you begin any paint removal or remodeling projects, be sure to test for lead. You can hire a professional to remove it or do it yourself. If you do it yourself, spread tarps under the work area, don't work on windy days, and collect and dispose of your paint waste in a licensed sanitary landfill.
- Install properly insulated skylights or larger windows to allow more natural light into your home. You will help reduce the amount of energy and electricity used to light your home.
- Donate reusable old cabinets, doors, plumbing fixtures, and hardware to a local charity or building materials reuse center.
- Reuse or recycle leftover cement, gravel, and sand whenever possible. Try not to mix up more fresh concrete or cement than you can use in a day.
- When your home is undergoing major landscape renovation, try to conduct grading and excavating projects when chances of rain are minimal to prevent erosion and contamination of run-off water. Cover excavated materials, dumpsters, and stockpiles of asphalt, sand, and yard clippings to prevent contaminants from getting into storm drains.
- Properly maintain home appliances and keep them clean to help ensure that they will run at peak efficiency. This also saves electricity, which conserves resources and reduces global warming. Remove lint and dust from your refrigerator coil and freezer. Clean up lint around your dryer, furnace, and any vents leading to or from them. Also, change or clean the filter in your air purifier or furnace.
- For cleaning chores, try to use durable items such as mops and reusable rags or sponges. When using household cleaning products, be sure that you only use the amount you need, and that you read and follow the manufacturer's directions for use and disposal.
- Properly store any unused paint for future use, donate unused paint to neighbors or charities, or turn in your used paint to a waste collection facility for recycling.
- If you have a tile roof, check it thoroughly for cracks or missing tiles, and use roofing made from recycled rubber or plastic to make repairs.
- Replace old insulation with insulation made from recycled paper, glass, and other recovered materials.
- Check your heat pump or furnace and change the filter or make repairs if needed. Properly maintaining your furnace will conserve fuel by keeping it running efficiently and preventing leaks.
- Remove screens from windows and doors and put up storm windows. Strong winds, heavy rains, and extreme cold can all damage your screens and ordinary windows, and send them to landfills before their time.
- Check caulking around windows and do touch ups to conserve energy and natural resources.
- When you're stuck inside on a rainy day, clean out your closet and collect the old clothes and toys for donation to a charity or your next garage sale.
Lawn & Garden
While working in your garden or caring for your landscape, there are many things you can do to reduce waste and conserve resources. From caring for you lawn and garden equipment, to "greenscaping," learn what you can do to make a difference in the world around you.
- Use food scraps, yard trimmings, and other organic waste to create a compost pile. Compost is a rich soil amendment that can help increase water retention, decrease erosion, and replace chemical fertilizers.
- Greenscape Your Landscape - In spring and summer, many of us start some kind of landscaping around our property. You can reduce the environmental impacts of landscaping your lawn and property by grasscycling, mulching, and composting. Properly managing your yard waste enhances your environment and saves you money.
- Shred untreated wood and leaf wastes into chips and use them as mulch on garden beds to prevent weed growth, retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and add nutrients back to the soil.
- Build a backyard fort or tree house from recycled materials, such as wood scraps, cardboard, and other found items.
- Buy recycled-content gardening equipment and tools, such as garden hoses made from old tires, stepping stones made from old glass bottles, or hand tools made with recycled plastic. You can also use plastic lumber made from recycled plastic bottles and bags to make flower beds, trellises, decks, and birdhouses.
- Recycle used oil and tires from lawn and garden equipment. If you have a need for large lawn and garden equipment, such as tillers or chainsaws, you can reduce waste (and save money!) by renting or borrowing the equipment.
- Keep your lawn mower and other equipment in efficient operating condition by performing regular maintenance according to the owner's manual. Purchase a nozzle that prevents fuel spills when refilling your lawn mower. Use manual tools when appropriate to save fuel and protect air quality. Remember not to use your gas mower on Code Red days.
- Raise the cutting height of your lawn mower during the hot summer months to keep grass roots shaded and cooler, reducing weed growth, browning, and the need for watering. When you mow, "grasscycle" by leaving grass clippings on your lawn instead of bagging them or use a mulching mower. The clippings will return nutrients to the soil instead of taking up space in landfills.
- Cut the bottoms off plastic milk jugs or use small paper bags to protect young seedlings from frost, wind, heavy rain, and roving animals. Remember to recycle the bags and jugs when the seedlings have grown.
- If you have healthy plants that you want to replace, donate them to community gardens or schools, or offer them to neighbors.
- Many plants and insects can serve as non-toxic, natural deterrents to weeds and garden pests. Introduce ladybugs to eat aphids, plant marigolds to ward off beetles, and look for quick-sprouting plants to block weed growth.
- Conserve water. Use barrels to collect rain water and use it to water plants. Check hoses for leaks before watering plants, and position sprinklers so they water only plants, not the sidewalk, street, or house. Also remember to water during the cooler parts of the day (early morning is best) to avoid evaporation.

(Your mileage may vary, as they say).
Which type do you use and why? Has anyone compared the life and power of AA rechargeables with non-rechargeable AAs?
I use the rechargeable, because I thought it would be cheaper than buying and replacing normal AAs. However, on buying Power Functions pieces, I was surprised by how good the battery life was.
Also, the rechargeable can be plugged in whilst using the NXT, so it can be useful for robots on for a long time.
If you leave space on your bot for plug access, it can save you having to destroy your robot to change batteries! :D
The better batteries are the Lithium E2 Energizers compared to the alkies is nite and day, pluss the E2 Lithium have 1.7v that puts the NXY at it top V of about 10.2 and weighs less than all and any other battery made. These are toss away i use them when weight, size and power is needed. Every day use i just use NiMH
I prefer to use normal NiMH batteries as they are much better in some ways than the battery pack. Most NiMH batteries are 1400 mAH (mine arn't though...) and have a higher voltage than ~8.2 (About fully charged). The battery pack also seems a bit more pricey than normal NiMH.
If I recall properly, I don't believe the NXT rechargable gives full power on the first couple of uses. If the test didn't account for this the results could be off somewhat.

One of my favorite columnists in existence, Peggy Noonan, had a great piece today on how Obama owes the country an explanation of his actions in Libya.
As usual she is spot on. It's not like we're asking him to solve any problems, we just want him to give us an explanation. You'd think he'd treat that like we just asked him to celebrate pre-Christmas. He gets a script, a teleprompter, he doesn't have to answer any questions, and he'll speak from his desk, so doesn't even have to change out of his golf shorts!
But no, we wake up one day to find out that we're lobbing tomahawk missiles and potentially creating a global cous cous crisis, and we don't even get a flippin' magazine cover out of it?
For two years this guy chased cameras like he was going to cheat on Michelle with one of them, and now we don't get to find out why he's sending us into ANOTHER war.
The worst thing about all this is the left seems to be on the same side as us, but he's a Democrat so they're more interested in talking about the apparent conservative hypocrisy on this issue than the fact that their guy just Orwelled the word "unilateral."
This is supposedly not unilateral because Obama got a signed permission slip from the U.N. and then decided to go green by not making our own Congress waste any paper in drafting one of their own.
In other words, Obama hasn't acted unilaterally in the eyes of his fellow citizens of the world, just the Americans who elected and pay him to put them first.
Why is this different from how Bush handled Iraq? This can be the part of the post where liberals can check out and affirm their ignorance at the Firedoglake post linked above.
Is Gadaffi a POS? Hell yes he is! However, our government is not responsible for addressing ALL of the sphincter vomit of the world. It's job is to be responsible for just the sphincter vomit that poses a threat to us.
If that's not going to be the rule of thumb then the guy who breaks it has explaining to do....preferably before he goes on his next vacation.

Our most recent realization of our interactive sound sculpture incorporates aesthetic additions to the object itself (namely the white "canvas" paint job) as well as improved software design and an immersive 6-channel speaker array.
Jamie and I are pleased because we were finally able to see our collaborative project through to near completion. Of course there were some glitches (we burned out 2 light bulbs so they weren't working when we did the demo) and I need more practice writing code so that I don't feel like I'm flying blind.
Technical details:
This is the code I used to test the switches by using the serial monitor to read a high or low signal. Pulled from Ladyada's Tutorial #5:
This is the code I used to test the relays to make sure they were wired correctly. Set the pin number that the relay is connected to and it will turn it on for 10 seconds upon reset.
And this is the diagram that I used (mostly) for wiring the relays:
But the information on this website helped with the wiring also:
This is the final code that we used in the presentation:
Most of the Waveshield code was pulled from examples that Ladyada had posted here:
Use Waveshield
Using the example to play once through but allow other buttons to interrupt, we were able to add on code from the switch tutorials for the relays.
A (mostly) accurate wiring diagram was posted on our project update post a while ago, so I'll skip that here. But here are the images of the wiring setups. We had two breadboards: one hooked up to switches and the analog pins on the waveshield, the other for transistors and going to the relays through the digital pins.
Unlike my final project, my conceptual project is completely about the spectacle. At the U I've been studying theatrical lighting due to a life-long obsession with concerts and the light shows that go on during the performances (Pink Floyd's Lazer Show, etc). Going to concerts was my first exploration into the community surrounding music, and it always amazed me how the dynamics of relationships changed once the music started at a venue. In my conceptual project I would use human interactions and gestures to trigger different elements that add to the communal space in a positive way.
Essentially my project involves the audience walking into a completely empty room, with each one of them triggering a sound as they enter. There would be 30 PIR Motion Sensors set around the room: 10 along the baseboard, 2 on each wall, and the rest hanging from the ceiling. By controlling the ranges of the motion sensor to only react to small areas, I can control the amount of movement necessary to trigger specific noises in certain spaces. This way, when people move in the space they can either create a cacophony of percussive noises or they can explore the space slowly and build a musical composition out of their movement. Each noise set off by the motion sensor would comprise of different samples.
This project would explore the dynamics of forced interactivity in an audience, as when there's a strong trust built amongst the members they can create beautiful moments. This project would be great to set up in a large room, where the sensors can be spaced out. Each participant becomes a part of the space and can interact with the others and the space itself by testing out what each sensor triggers.
For my final project I wanted to work with expanding on a simple concept. I had bought a Flip-Flap earlier this semester at Ax Man, and it had never worked quite properly. Flip-Flaps run off of solar power, and work with a capacitor to keep the leaves waving even if the light disappears. It's consistency was always very appealing to me, as the clicking of the leaves act as a metronome constantly beating. So for my last project I wanted to learn how I and others could interact with this consistency.
After researching the Flip-Flap, I figured out that I could disrupt the flow of electricity by using a relay switch in-between the wire connecting the solar panel to the capacitor. I used a PIR Motion Detector to control the flow of energy, making it so that when you waved at the Flip Flap, it would wave back at you. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, as it reacted as I hoped it would.
This is the Arduino program that I used to control the Motion Sensor:
//the time we give the sensor to calibrate (10-60 secs according to the datasheet)
int calibrationTime = 30;
//the time when the sensor outputs a low impulse
long unsigned int lowIn;
//the amount of milliseconds the sensor has to be low
//before we assume all motion has stopped
long unsigned int pause = 5000;
boolean lockLow = true;
boolean takeLowTime;
int pirPin = 3; //the digital pin connected to the PIR sensor's output
int ledPin = 13;
void setup(){
pinMode(pirPin, INPUT);
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(pirPin, LOW);
//give the sensor some time to calibrate
Serial.print("calibrating sensor ");
for(int i = 0; i < calibrationTime; i++){
Serial.println(" done");
Serial.println("SENSOR ACTIVE");
void loop(){
if(digitalRead(pirPin) == HIGH){
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); //the led visualizes the sensors output pin state
//makes sure we wait for a transition to LOW before any further output is made:
lockLow = false;
Serial.print("motion detected at ");
Serial.println(" sec");
takeLowTime = true;
if(digitalRead(pirPin) == LOW){
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); //the led visualizes the sensors output pin state
lowIn = millis(); //save the time of the transition from high to LOW
takeLowTime = false; //make sure this is only done at the start of a LOW phase
//if the sensor is low for more than the given pause,
//we assume that no more motion is going to happen
if(!lockLow && millis() - lowIn > pause){
//makes sure this block of code is only executed again after
//a new motion sequence has been detected
lockLow = true;
Serial.print("motion ended at "); //output
Serial.print((millis() - pause)/1000);
Serial.println(" sec");
This wasn't a flashy project as my other ones turned out, but I'm very happy to have explored a softer approach to interactive art by bringing in the use of gesture and interaction with a mechanical object. This is an extremely interesting relationship for me, as I'm still struggling with the extremely reactive role that objects play in our lives today.
Gina Chase was the artist I chose to do my second artist review. It was acutally the very same day that I posted my conceptual project proposal for exploring space and place. I was drawn to her work because of my interest in memroy. I enjoyed her careful attention to details with her layering of images. I also enjoyed the incorporation of mirrors into many of the pieces, as if to question ones real self as upposed to ones representational self. That idea of images and memory resonates with me, even all these weeks later, and I even held onto the newsprinted story.
As a way to experiment and start prototyping physically responsive spatial elements, I developed a simple "windwall" incorporating a passive infra-red (PIR) sensor, an actuated switch, and a number of ordinary house fans controlled by an arduino microcontroller.
As was evidenced by my class demo, the arrangement of the motion sensor to the zone of activity caused the relay to be consistently triggered. I programmed the sensor with 30 seconds of calibration time to create a baseline with a relatively high amount of motion, but it was ineffective at creating the response I wanted. Repositioning the sensor, creating a smaller view cone for the fresnel lens, or using a PIR with a manually controlled sensitivity would have made the interaction more satisfactory.
One very helpful tool was the PowerStripTail, available here for less than $20. It is essentially an independently powered relay that allows for the conversion of electricity between the 5v microcontroller and up to 120v AC. I powered three house fans on an ordinary powerstrip plugged into the PowerStripTail. This greatly reduced the time and circuitry required for this experiment.
My concept project incorporates the exploration of visual and sonic relationships produced by ecosystemic data mapping. More specifically, I'm interested how distinct spaces sharing a common boundary (e.g. rooms in a building or buildings within a university) could be melded into a common space, or "composite audiovisual ecosystem."
I would use microphones to track the sonic profiles of multiple distinct environments, preferably public spaces--libraries, hallways, cafes, playgrounds, etc. Using custom software, I would extract frequency and amplitude information from these signals in realtime and transform them into a series of data streams. These fluctuating data streams would be structurally coupled to various sound parameters of the audio signals being tracked, as well as video of the environments. This would form a "net" of data connections among the various spaces. This "net" of data couplings would enable the characteristic sounds events of each respective environment to induce change in the audio and video signals of the others, thus informing the overall audiovisual output of the piece. (The audiovisual output would include multiple realtime video projections as well as a multichannel speaker array.) In effect, the composite audiovisual output would represent the interactive intersection of multiple spaces in a single environment.
For this project, I come up with an idea about how to make the LED light become a signal that can direct people's physical actions, so people will have a chance to be directed by LED light and become a participant. So I come up with an idea of running game, and the LED light will blink into different colors and blink at different frequency, and each color represent a certain object and a certain frequency represent the certain distance, so firstly, when players see the LED light, they need to transfer the light into certain signals, and actually the interactivity here is different from the traditional notion of interactivity, like the traditional one is to actually touch or smell or something to be interactive. So, people transfer the visual effect into signal and for running part, they need their respond ability like who can respond to the frequency and color changes faster who can win the game cause they take actions first
It is nice to be extremely fully knowledgeable in new areas of thinking. Before this year I knew nothing about Max, Arduino's, programming computer chips, LED's, electronic breadboards, Blogs, Media Mill, or Final Cut pro. I thank my teachers and especially my fellow students who helped me achieve this goal.
I leave this Mark Twain quote to the motor mouths amongst us "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."
-- Mark Twain
-- Take care I truly enjoyed this year with my fellow students
-- Lance
For a general purposes, I believe that anything that can be considered "art" is also inherently "interactive" in one way or another. Thus, my definition of Interactive Art is just as impossible to explain as my definition of Art.
However, for purposes of this class, I will define
Interactive Art : "a performance or installation created by one or more humans, created for and dependent upon a second party of humans to experience in a personal and engaging manner."

Great tire in the mud, haven't been stuck yet. Fair on the trails, just watch out for large sticks they like to through them up into the finders. Not that great on dry sugar sand roads, tend to dig in and slow you down.

Comments On Dec 27, 2014:These tires are great! No joke I have them on back for about a year an half now. They keep on grabbing mud and whatever you throw at them. I just bought two front tires through there 3 day shipping deal. I received them faster than I thought. I can hardly wait to put them on my quad having them all around the quad will be awesome in the woods! Great tire here I will buy from again!

Comments On Sep 13, 2014:Wow! All I got to say! I put these tires to the test on a thirty mile poker run in red bank located in Pennsylvania. Put my quad and these tires through the most extreme, with mud holes and slippery clay hill climes while raining. I did not slow down! Watched some tires with larger lugs suffer while I pass. These tires pulled me through the worst! Two thumbs up with me! Impressed! It even held up in hard packed terrain....love them..

Comments On Sep 02, 2014:Wow! My Mudlite XL tires were great! but didnt want to give up what I had. These tires do what the XL's did and more. They do give up a little deep mud to the XL's but the ride on the rest of the trail more than makes up for it. After all, there is more trail riding here in Warsaw, NY than mud holes. A great swap.

Comments On May 05, 2014:I had 2 ply Carlise ACT tires on my 13' Outlander that were always getting punctured. I purchased these tires and ride all types of terrain. I have not felt any difference in handling since installing these and I have yet to puncture these tires. They get lots of compliments from fellow riders. They laugh when they get covered in MUD when driving behind me. Best tires in my opinion.

There were about 20 dogs and 10 puppies in the kennel at the time of investigation.
Two kennels at one property
There were two kennel areas, each being a small building with indoor/outdoor enclosures. Ivan Horning, one of the kennel owners told me that he owned some of the dogs while his son John Mark Horning owned the rest. Ivan and Ana Horning have a kennel at the residence under one USDA and PA license, while John Mark has a kennel at the same address under different USDA and PA licenses. Some of John Mark's dogs were in Ivan and Ana's kennel building, including three West Highland Terriers (USDA 2.102(a)(3)-Holding facility).
Kennel designs
Ivan showed me one of the kennel buildings, located on the opposite side of the road as the residence. The kennel building had two rows of elevated cages on each of its longer sides. The outdoor cages were constructed of wooden frames and coated wire. Rubber matting was used for floorings. Six cages were on each side of the building, containing either a litter of puppies or one to three dogs.
Cleaning/health violations
Several violations were evident at the kennel. One cage held four Weimaraner puppies about six weeks old. The outside rubber flooring had dried feces encrusted on its surfaces, especially inside the holes of the flooring for debris to fall through (PA Dog Law 21.29(b)-Sanitation) (USDA 3.11(a)-Cleaning of Primary Enclosures).
Two different outside cages, each holding a Weimaraner breeder, had large piles of feces on their floorings that appeared to be several days of accumulation (PA Dog Law 21.29(a)-Sanitation) (USDA 3.11(a)-Cleaning of Primary Enclosures). Another cage held three West Highland Terriers with mats in their fur; one dog had a clump of dried feces encrusted to its hindquarters (PA Dog Law 21.30-Condition of dog) (USDA 2.40-Vet care). Feces was smashed into the kennel flooring of the Westie cage in numerous areas, clogging up a lot of the holes in the flooring for debris to fall through (PA Dog Law 21.29(b)-Sanitation) (USDA 3.11(a)-Cleaning of Primary Enclosures).
Ivan told me that his son John Mark owned the Westies.

The forklift can do autonomous tasks with the help of the ultrasonic sensor, and you can also control it via Bluetooth remote control. The built-in remote control feature in the NXT 2.0 software can be used to drive the forklift, but it is inconvenient to control the lift because you cannot easily reverse the 3rd motor on the fly using the built-in remote control. Fortunately, Anders Søborg has provided this free PC Bluetooth Vehicle Remote program, which is more flexible, so instructions for using this are included. Anders' program works fine with either NXT 1.0 or NXT 2.0, so it is a nice upgrade for 2.0 users or a great new tool for 1.0 users (PC only, sorry no Mac version).
Instructions and programs to control this forklift by Bluetooth from another NXT will follow in my next project post.
Here is a video of the forklift in action:

Anya Firisen is 10 years old and she already knows more about cheese than most of us. Ricki met her when she attended a Cheesemaking 101 Workshop with her former pre-school teacher this past summer. Soon after, Anya appeared in an article in Culture magazine (Fall, 2010) called "Lunchbox Lessons." She made recommendations and gave advice to help other young cheese enthusiasts. In fact, Culture teamed up with the Cowgirl Creamery to offer a selection of the cheeses Anya recommended.
When I contacted Anya, I learned that she was just about to be making Mozzarella all by herself. I asked her to take a few pictures and she agreed. In the end, she carefully documented every single step of the process. She was using our recipe which may be found in our book, "Home Cheese Making" and in our Mozzarella Kit. Her milk was pasteurized, but not homogenized (Ronnybrook Creamline).
Making Mozzarella with Anya Firisen
Adding the citric acid to the milk. (In our kit, we recommend diluting it first and putting it in the pot before adding the milk, but Anya's method worked fine.)
Adding the rennet.
Covering the pot and waiting 10 minutes.
Cutting the curd.
Heating the curds to 105F.
Getting the bowl and gloves ready.
Taking the pot off the burner.
