To celebrate my 100th flight (DCA to DEN, as you ask), here's an update to my flight map.

To overlay two countries, move them so that their centres are over the same point (eg 0, 0). The trick is to make sure that they stay the same size, and don't get too distorted in the process.
The jamegeo.com country comparison method is:
1. Re-project your country into a UTM zone. This means that you can translate (move) it North or South without enlarging / shrinking the country, or distorting the shape. This only works if your country fits inside one UTM zone… which almost none do.
2. Move the country until the centre sits on the equator. Expect minor change in shape if your country is too fat for its UTM zone.
3. Re-project into a Equirectangular projection (eg WGS84)
4. Move your country along the equator, which you can do in a equirectangular projection without altering the shape.
5. Rescale (a very little bit) to compensate for any shrinking during stage 2.
6. Combine with another country and be very pleased with yourself.

We've previously seen that our Air Safaris Scenic flight was close to the advertised flight path. To add some 3D information I've found a 8m DEM.
I've used the QuantumGIS 2threejs plugin to show the side view – both the flight and terrain data are now in three dimensions.
Now that we have a DEM, we can drape any imagery over the top.

Imagine there's no countries.
It isn't hard to do.
Imagine unioning all of the countries (turning all of the separate shapes below into one) … it turns out to be harder than I thought.
Which brings to mind a favourite saying of another Beatle:
Peace and love,

Thanks, Ringo.

In February Jamesgeo Team NZ flew on Air Safaris' Grand Traverse and took lots of photos. For the record, this was an excellent experience. The Air Safaris guide shows the proposed flight path… but where did we really fly?
I have used QuantumGIS's georeferencer plugin to turn the above image into a map by identifying a number of Ground Control Points (GCPs), such as Lake Tekapo airport, Glentanner Park and various road junctions. This results in a georectified (and georeferenced) image, displayed in WGS84, the coordinate reference system of the GPS points used as the GCPs.
I made a new postgreSQL table with columns for both 2D and 3D geometries, then inserted each point (see bottom of page for SQL commands). This gives us 1410 points, coloured here by altitude. I have reprojected the map into the New Zealand map grid (EPSG:27200).
Displaying this route on top of the Air Safaris map:
So our blue track is pretty close to the advertised red track. Well done Air Safaris!

As their development have been getting more and more successful, the application of FPGAs in different tasks of computer and software engineering is spreading. In home automation they seem to be really effective because of their huge parallel computing capacity, as well as of their low energy consumption and customisability: FPGAs are capable of cooperating nearly with every electrical device. That is the reason why it is considerable to use them as the central unit of an intelligent home.
The aim of my thesis is to design and realise the fundaments of a sustainable, easy to use and cost-saving automated home for senior citizens and for the disabled.

Recently I've been reading through Walter Murch's book In the Blink of an Eye: A Perspective On Film Editing. Murch is celebrated film editor, sound designer, director, and screenwriter who has worked on a number of notable films, such as The Conversation, American Graffiti, Apocalypse Now, The Godfather Part II and Part III, and The English Patient.
His book provides valuable insights not only into the actual process of editing, but also the philosophy of editing itself. It's WAY more more than an instructional handbook. His thoughts on life, the mind, cinema, relationships between editor and subject matter, and an editor's methods are fascinating and extremely helpful to me as I seek to become a better filmmaker.
Sidebar: For additional information about the process and philosophy of film editing, take a look at this video from Every Frame A Painting.
One chapter from Murch's book I found particularly noteworthy is entitled "Seeing Around the Edge of the Frame." It deals with the contrast betweeen the relationship the editor has with the material vs. the relationship the director has with the material.
A director will ALWAYS remember the conditions under which a particular scene was shot. As the director looks at the footage, he/she knows what was happening beyond the edge of the frame; i.e. what it took to get the shot. That knowledge will affect a director's feelings toward the footage. As Murch puts it:
"'We worked like hell to get that shot, it has to be in the film.' You (the director, in this case) are convinced that what you got was what you wanted, but there's a possibility that you may be forcing yourself to see it that way because it cost so much-in money, time, angst-to get it.
"By the same token, there are occasions when you shoot something that you dislike, when everyone is in a bad mood... Later on, when you look at that take, all you can remember was the hateful moment it was shot, and so you may be blind to the potentials it might have in a different context."
These thoughts mean a lot to me, because often I'm the one editing my own material. So then, the question arises, "Should the director also serve as the editor?" Or to put it another way, "Can a director be an effective editor of his/her own film?"
During post-production on my short film Final Hit I struggled with the exact thing Murch describes in his book. There was a particular scene in the film that I just didn't want to cut, because I remembered how much time it took to get each shot. I thought back to the time and effort the cast and crew put into the shoot and I thought if I cut the scene I would somehow be disrespecting their talents and abilities.
I intended for the scene to be a character moment for the protagonist. It was supposed to reveal to the audience something specific about the type of person he is. However, in my gut I knew the scene wasn't working, so I made the tough choice to cut it from the film.
So, getting back to the question: Can a director also edit his/her own film? Many directors have. I think a director can also be an effective editor, but I've learned from Murch's book the importance of distancing oneself from the material after the shoot ends. As he says:
"Between the end of shooting and before the first cut is finished, the very best thing that can happen to the director (and the film) is that he say goodbye to everyone and disappear for two weeks - up to the mountains or down to the sea or out to Mars or somewhere...
"Wherever he goes, he should try to think, as much as possible, about things that have absolutely nothing to do with the film. It is difficult, but it is necessary to create a barrier, a cellular wall between shooting and editing."
I've also learned the value of working with an editor who can provide more objectivity to the film and who can help make the final cut even stronger.

The story of the Transfiguration is highly relevant to those who desire to become more like Christ. Eugene Peterson views the Transfiguration as an invitation to make a habit of gazing on Jesus (Subversive Spirituality). When we set our gaze on Jesus we are amazed at what we encounter. When we make a habit of gazing, we also can experience something similar to what Peter, James and John experienced. In this article, we'll look at the elements of the Transfiguration scene and then consider its significance for our own growth.
So what does this have to do with our own spiritual growth? Peterson is right that some pretty remarkable life transformation is made possible when we make it a habit to gaze on Jesus. Here are a few examples:
It's fascinating to me that the same word which is translated 'transfigured' in Mark 9:2 is rendered 'transformed' in Romans 12:2. The same Greek word is used for Christ's transfiguration and for our transformation! There is an intended connection between what happened to Jesus that day on the mountain and what God does in Jesus' followers.
Certainly there are aspects of light, glory and transformation which will forever be unique to Jesus' experience, but these same motifs transfer also into our experience as we choose to make a habit of gazing upon Jesus. Paul expresses this in 2 Corinthians 3:18: "And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." What a promise that is!
So how does one get started? In The Pursuit of God A.W. Tozer models how pondering God's attributes can lead us there. Getting out in God's creation may assist this work if nature speaks to you. Contemplating the Word can direct our gaze toward Jesus. So can worship, prayer and art.
It's fitting that this path can't be prescribed in five easy steps, but the Lord's beauty, majesty and glory await the one who refuses to be satisfied with anything less.

Manager confident Diss' fortunes can be changed
Jason Cook's previous experiences in management have filled him with the belief that he is the right man to turn things around at Diss Town.
Cook was somewhat thrown in at the deep end at Brewers Green Lane, coming in late on during pre-season after Paul Bugg had exited the club without taking charge of a game.
The new boss was handed the task of building a completely new team at a time when the majority of other Thurlow Nunn League First Division clubs had completed their summer business.
Consequently, it has been a tough campaign for those of a Diss persuasion, with Saturday's 2-0 home defeat to bottom-of-the-table Team Bury a particularly low point.
However, having turned around similar situations in previous roles at Whitton United Reserves and Haughley United, Cook is confident he can soon have the Tangerines challenging towards the top end of the table.
"This was always going to be a hard job," he said.
"With everything that happened here in the summer, it probably set the club back two or three years.
"When I came in most players that were looking for moves at the end of last season had already signed up elsewhere.
"I have experienced this a couple of times before and ended getting through to cup finals and moving up the league.
"If we can get the right players in during the summer, we can turn Diss back into a top-six club.
"Some people probably do not understand the size of the job that was taken on.
"We had just two players when I came and no reserve side to pick from — it was tough.
"I understand people want quick success but it does not always happen.
"The Thurlow Nunn is a higher level than I have worked at before, but given time things will change."
The defeat to Team Bury extended Diss' losing streak to six matches, failing to score in five of those outings.
While it does not make for pleasant reading, Cook believes his men are not too far away from arresting that form.
"We have been a bit unlucky in at least three of those games," he added.
"We have dominated spells but not taken our chances and you get punished for that.
"It comes down to confidence and the players are a little low right now.
"If we keep at it things will change."
Diss (17th) were without a fixture before early Saturday call-offs and head to Holland FC (15th) on Tuesday (7.45pm).

The subject: "USS NEW YORK," made from 24 tons of scrap steel taken from the 9/11/01 World Trade Center's carnage! The ship's motto: "NEVER FORGET!"
Sent by my brother, Dr. Ronald J. Pancner, M.D.
The "USS New York" was built using 24 tons of melted scrap steel taken from the World Trade Center. As you scroll down, notice that there are two twin towers on the top of the ship!
It is the fifth in a new class of warships designed for missions that include special operations against terrorists. It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft.
Steel from the World Trade Center was melted down in a foundry in Amite, LA, to cast the ship's bow section. When it was poured into the molds on Sept 9, 2003, "those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence," recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there. "It was a spiritual moment for everybody there."
Junior Chavers, foundry operations manager, said that when the trade center steel first arrived, he touched it with his hand and the "hair on my neck stood up. It had a big meaning to it for all of us," he said. "They knocked us down. They can't keep us down. We're going to be back."
The ship's motto: "NEVER FORGET!"

When it comes to to acquire residences on the market, we frequently imagine to start with of single-family homes. There are plenty of positive aspects, however, to The Gazania SingHaiYi Group that single-family properties available can't provide you.
In accordance with the Countrywide Association of Realtors, condominiums are most favored for first-time houses on the market potential buyers, specially solitary women of all ages. Up coming, occur retirees and vacant nesters, who don't wish to acquire each of the actual physical maintenance required by single-family households available for sale. As a result, condominiums make up an ever-increasing share with the output on the prime homebuilders over the nation, even with the lower in households on the market for the reason that bubble deflated.
Furthermore to new condominiums getting constructed, numerous condominium buildings, motels office structures, and also warehouses which have been vacant or partially filled are increasingly being transformed into condominiums. These condominium residences available acquire less than a year to convert, with updates to the exterior and customary parts. They insert features towards the interior; and in some, they incorporate a pool, spa, health club and/or clubhouse to draw in the upscale houses available for purchase customers.
The top deals in condominium households on the market are individuals from the process of becoming converted or designed. You always should buy all through construction/renovation in a 10-15 % lower price. Glimpse carefully on the obtain agreement, nonetheless, in the event the condominium is remaining converted from an apartment setting up. Make sure you can not be demanded to permit latest renters to stay to get a specified length of your time.
A condominium residences available has quite a few advantages. Similar to a single-family dwelling, they recognize in value and have exactly the same tax benefits. Not like a single-family residences available for sale, your home-owner affiliation and routine maintenance charges covers all major repairs prices of popular spots, landscaping and the like. From time to time, a number of other amenities and advantages are protected, at the same time.
Transformed Condominiums
Just before purchasing a homes for sale inside a converted constructing, learn how aged the creating is and what updates they designed throughout the conversion. Older buildings typically have a lot more regular and better price tag repairs. Check with should the homeowners affiliation has plenty of dollars in reserve to deal with main costs, for example roof replacement. Otherwise, will the homeowners should meet up with the costs. How outdated will be the appliances, specially the furnace, scorching h2o heater, and air con? If your appliances are not new, think about buying servicing and repair service contracts to avoid wasting huge fees afterwards.

The study of Urology is a medical specialty that identifies and treats diseases of the urinary tract in both female and male reproductive organs. Urology often requires a knowledge of internal medicines, pediatric medicine, gynecology, and various other specialties due to the varying nature of clinical problems that a Urologist is often presented. Since Urology covers a wide sweeping scope of medical specialties, the American Urological Association has identified seven subspecialty areas in the profession. These subsets include, urology in pediatrics, urologic oncology, renal transplants, infertility in males, urinary stones, urology in females (including incontinence and pelvic outlet relaxation disorders), and Neurology (including ailments such as erectile dysfunction and impotence) Dr. Donald Sonn is a Urologist who studied at Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine who now specializes in impotence, prostheses, and stone disease. Sonn also works in brachytherapy and robotic surgery and has implemented the Da Vinci system for treatment in prostate cancer. With a field has complicated and varied as Urology, having highly educated multi-taskers such as Dr. Donald Sonn in the profession who are willing to try cutting edge techniques and treatments is essential to the growth and development of urological medical findings. Urology is an exciting field with many possibilities and avenues for development and study.
Doctors who are willing to grow with the rapidly changing field of Urology are incredibly valuable to the practice and to the patients with whom they so generously devote their talent and time. With constantly evolving technology, refinements in many areas of surgery have turned once complicated surgeries into minimally invasive, and sometimes outpatient, procedures. Having highly skilled and experienced doctors to perform such surgeries allows them to become more commonplace and acceptable means of treatment for patients. As a person who greatly values education and sharing experiences with others, Dr. Donald Sonn spent ten years of his career as an Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Urology at the Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston. During his last year of teaching, he also accomplished being named the Chief of Surgery at Cooley Dickinson Hospital. For Urologists, the love of learning and personal development never ends. Keeping up with the latest medical advancements requires practicing urologists to be actively involved in continuing their education. It is this type of devotion to the study of Urology that brings about a new era of treatment options and hope for patients across the globe.

Celebrity chef teaches students culinary tricks of the trade
You may know Marcus Samuelsson from his restaurants in New York City, one of his award-winning cookbooks, or even his appearances on Food Network. He is an advisor to The Institute of Culinary Education in New York City and gives back to his community by spending time and teaching budding chefs some new tips and techniques.
According to PIX 11 News Samuelsson said, "Nothing makes me happier than to see young cooks that just gravitate towards the industry."
Twenty students are taking part in a 10-week after school program at the Academy for Hospitality and Tourism on the Erasmus High School campus in Flatbush. The program aims to teach everything from kitchen safety to life skills said PIX 11 News.
Three years ago the teaching kitchen on the Erasmus campus was shut down due to a lack of funding. Non-profit Careers through Culinary Arts worked with the Department of education to refurbish the kitchen and launch the new program.
Twelfth grade student Horace Simmonds was delighted to learn from Samuelsson and appreciated the opportunity to expand his knowledge of the culinary arts.
"I want to really give it my all, show that I have a skill that I'm proud of," he said.

Bledsoe comes out firing like Delk
NEW ORLEANS — Before his first NCAA Tournament game ever, Eric Bledsoe sought counsel from his own personal Yoda.
Tony Delk, star of Kentucky's 1996 NCAA champions and current UK coach in training, told the freshman from Alabama that the first tourney game is the hardest one.
"Because you don't know what might happen," Bledsoe said. "He said you're always nervous, but you've got to get it out of your system and, after that, it's easy."
If the NCAA Tournament gets any easier for Bledsoe, well, UK will have to immediately hang his jersey in Rupp Arena's rafters.
Here in the Big Easy, the 6-foot-1 freshman came out hotter than a Remoulade Sauce. Bledsoe drained nine of 11 shots, including 8-for-9 three pointers to score a career-high 29 points.
With Bledsoe leading the way, Kentucky looked every bit how a No. 1 seed and aspiring national champion should, blasting No. 16 East Tennessee State by a 100-71 score that wasn't, actually, that close.
One of the knocks on UK entering the Dance, of course, is the erratic nature of its outside shooting.
Bledsoe, in some ways, has been the poster person for that.
In the 14 games that started with the Arkansas contest in Rupp Arena and ended with Alabama in the first game of the Southeastern Conference Tournament, Bledsoe shot a horrid 9-for-46 from three-point range.
Yet, in addition to shooting one of the best deliberately missed free throws in college basketball history, Bledsoe heated up in the final two games in Nashville.
He came into the sparsely filled New Orleans Arena for Thursday night's game having made seven of his prior 12 three-point attempts.
Yet that was nothing compared to the long-range strafing he launched on ETSU.
UK was already up 29-14, when Bledsoe nuked any thoughts that the Cats were going to be challenged or upset as many favorites were on the first day of the 2010 NCAAs.
In a 3:14 stretch, No. 24 drained a trey from the right wing; he made a steal and took it in for a layup; he buried another trey from the right wing; then hit yet another three; and, finally, he cashed in the first of two free throws.
That was a personal 12-0 run for Bledsoe.
From that point forward, there was never any tension involved for the Kingdom of the Blue.
Just as impressively, Bledsoe came back after halftime and had a 3:13 stretch in which he scored 11 points.
"Coach told me to play defense," Bledsoe said of UK head man John Calipari, "and that when I play defense, it carries over to offense. So that's what I did."
Bledsoe's long-range marksmanship was the biggest part of a 15-for-33 effort from beyond the arc by UK.
Just what would it mean for Kentucky in its bid for an eighth NCAA title if the outside shots keep falling?
"We're pretty much unbeatable," answered UK big man DeMarcus Cousins.
Kentucky's overall performance certainly harkened back to the late 1990s, the modern golden era of deep NCAA tourney runs. Just as UK did back then to the San Jose States and Riders, the 2010 Cats turned their 1 vs. 16 matchup into an impressive platform of dynamic dunks, monster blocked shots and — thanks to Bledsoe — some dead-eye long-range shooting.
Said Calipari: "East Tennessee State, they hit a buzzsaw. Hopefully, we're this good. I'm not sure if we are, but we'll see if we can keep it going."
As for Bledsoe and his Yoda, maybe Delk settled the freshman down a little too well.
The eight treys Bledsoe drained Thursday night eclipsed the UK record of seven three-pointers in an NCAA Tournament game set in the 1996 national title contest by one Tony Delk.
In the Wildcats locker room after Thursday's beat down, someone asked Bledsoe whether he was going to give his counselor a hard time about that.
"I've already started," Bledsoe said. "Tony who?"
What did Delk have to say in reply?
Said Bledsoe: "He said I should have stopped at seven."

In 2005, the City of Boise developed a strategic information
technology assessment and plan. This assessment concluded that the
City was underutilizing and under-supporting its Tier 1enterprise
resource planning (ERP) software, PeopleSoft. This system provided
Payroll, General Ledger (GL), Accounting, and Budgeting functions.
Most Tier 1 software applications are utilized by large
enterprises that include multi-language, multi-national sites. In
effect, the city was attempting to use a product built for large
companies, not mid sized cities. To put the city's financial
size in perspective, here are a few statistics. The City's
Operating Budget is approximately $250 million and has a biannual
(every two years) budget build with six year projections. The
City of Boise has a full time employee staff of 1,600 with an
additional 450 seasonal peak.
In 2008, the City conducted a return on investment analysis of its ERP, which
identified benefits of moving from the City's PeopleSoft 8.8
Financial Management System (FMS) and Human Resource Management
System (HRMS) to a mid-market solution.
Following this report, the City of Boise has been undergoing a
business process re-engineering effort for the key functions within
the ERP system. The resulting ERP Functional Analysis and
Recommendation reports can also be downloaded from the City's
website listed above. These reports identify recommended "to-be"
process, business rules, and system changes for
timekeeping/payroll, business planning/budgeting, accounts
payable/purchasing/contract management, human resources, and
accounts receivable/billing/cash receipting.
In July of 2010, the City of Boise selected a time collection
system from a company called Cybershift, we are currently underway
with this project and will be rolling this out in phases to the
departments starting in February of 2011. In November of
2010, after an extensive process the city selected Lawson's
software package and will be working with a company called Ciber to
implement the product. Implementation is expected to begin
January, 2011.

Expect the Victoria Shamrocks to unleash their high-octane offence Thursday and Friday nights against two of the strongest Western Lacrosse Association teams – it will be the key to them winning either game.
The Shamrocks (3-2) have matches tonight and tomorrow against the New Westminster Salmonbellies in New Westminster and then at The Q Centre in Colwood on Friday at 7:30 pm.
The Salmonbellies are unbeaten this season, sporting a record of 5-0 including a 9-8, season-opening win over Victoria and sit atop of the WLA standings – this was expected. They are built to win this year.
So far, they are the only team to score more than Victoria with 60 goals, to Victoria's 57. They have the second stingiest defence in the league with 41 goals against, bettered only by Maple Ridge's 38.
The Burrards are 4-1, however, do not possess the high-powered offence that Victoria and New Westminster have, with just 48 goals scored.
If the Shamrocks can contain Curtis Dickson and his league-leading 22 goals, the Shamrocks can win.
"We can't really prepare for a lineup before a game. We just have to worry about our game," said Coach Bob Heyes. "You worry about your 20 guys and work with what you got."
Which is scoring, ball movement and special teams.
The Shamrocks top line is one of the best in box lacrosse with Casey Jackson, Jesse King and Rhys Duch scoring nearly at will and a strong lineup where everyone is expected to contribute. Sunday, the Shamrocks' special teams were exactly that, scoring eight of 13 goals on the man advantage and two more short-handed. Nanaimo had no chance on the 13-5 drubbing at The Q Centre.
"It's nice to know that you can win games in different ways," said Heyes. "That's part of a team's success, you build confidence when you can score 5-on-5, shorthanded and on the man advantage."
Asked what the Shamrocks need to do to deal with the Salmonbellies, Heyes said, "We know them, we know what they have and we just have to come with a game plan to play to our strengths and make it uncomfortable for them. We have got a pretty healthy group and we will have just about our best lineup for Thursday. They have a very good team, so it will be a good measuring stick for us."
EXTRAS: The Shamrocks will retire Kevin Alexander's number 26 Friday night between periods.
Alexander's pure scoring talent helped the Shamrocks to two Mann Cup championships in 1979 and 1983. His jersey will accompany Whitey Severson and Ranjit Dillon's to the rafters.

What Does It Mean to Poke someone On Facebook In 2019
What Does It Mean to Poke someone On Facebook
A Facebook poke is a free function that enables you to send out a digital "Hey, I was here" message. The poke appears on your friend's page as an icon that represents that poked him and supplies the options "Remove Poke" or "Poke Back" If you obtain the symbol on your page, only you - not the site visitors to your page - will see it, and also if you don't poke back or remove it, the person that sent it cannot poke you once more. As soon as you hide the poke or poke back, nevertheless, that person is totally free to poke you again. Facebook's setups allow you to ask for an email when you receive a poke.
When you visit a friend's Facebook homepage, search in the top high-hand corner for the gray button that claims "Poke" and includes a photo of a finger poking. The switch is straight to the right of the "Send out Message" button. Click "Poke"; no additional action is required. When you visit your very own homepage, you will not see the poke button because you cannot poke on your own; on your page, you'll find the "Edit Profile" button rather.
Allowed Pokes
You are permitted to poke someone that is a verified friend of your own, a friend of a verified friend or a person in a shared network. The very same three categories of Facebook users can poke you also.
Poking Add-Ons
A number of cost-free programs enable you to instantly poke close friends. Facebook Autopoke 3.5 jabs back friends noted on your home page.

Spinal degeneration occurs when damage is done to the spine. The damage can come instantly from trauma like an auto accident or slowly from long term wear like poor posture or misalignments. Spinal degeneration is a process, it takes time to develop. Over time, the discs become smaller, scar tissue forms, and the joints move incorrectly. If left untreated, bone growth will increase and sections of the spinal column can naturally fuse together. This results in pain, nerve irritation, discomfort, and limited mobility.
Fortunately, early detection of spinal degeneration can stop its progression. In many cases, when caught early enough, it can be reversed. As chiropractors, we want everyone to have a healthy spine. Every chiropractic adjustment works to keep your joints moving better and keeps degeneration out of your spine. That means more overall mobility, better communication through your nerves. The chiropractic goal is for healthier spine that will let you move and feel better.

In its September issue, the Brooklyn Rail magazine profiles the Si Se Puede! Women's Cooperative. In recent years, the coop has been an outstanding success: it has provided its members with a steady source of income and drawn attention by the media and community groups seeking to replicate its model. With growth, however, members have come to face new challenges as they deliberate how to meet the ever-increasing demand for their services:
Like all coops, membership in Si Se Puede! requires participation in the day-to-day management of the business and there is work to be done beyond the payment of dues. For one, members must spend three hours a month promoting the coop to potential clients. This might mean staffing a table at a summer street fair or handing out Si Se Puede! literature in upscale Brooklyn neighborhoods.
This old-fashioned, grassroots outreach has paid off; the coop now has more than 1,300 people in its database—from one-time users to weekly clients. What's more, they've scored work not only from individuals but also from yoga studios, stores, and a Fort Greene bed & breakfast.
In addition to doing outreach, members are also required to attend weekly meetings where business decisions are hashed out. (…) Current hot topics include how fast Si Se Puede! should grow. Should membership be capped, so that the coop remains small, or should it be opened to new members? If they choose to expand, will increased numbers inhibit participatory democracy? Can they avoid a more traditional hierarchical structure if they double or triple in size?
Not easy questions, these, but Si Se Puede! members and CFL staff agree that change is inevitable if the coop is to continue to thrive, and all are confident that the business is strong enough to weather growth spurts and challenges. In fact, [Cooperative Coordinator Vanessa] Bransburg says that interest in the Si Se Puede! model is burgeoning and groups like Make the Road New York and Catholic Charities are looking to CFL for help in establishing similar projects in other parts of the city.

In March, fourteen immigrant women from Sunset Park came together to start a worker-owned interior painting business. They began a 10-week cooperative orientation and training to prepare for the launch of their business. As the Cooperative Coordinator, I designed the curriculum and helped recruit the founding members, but what I did not expect was the high intensity of enthusiasm and focus from the members.
During these first 10 weeks before the launch, we covered the fundamental principles of the cooperative movement, communication skills for group work, decision-making strategies, the infrastructure development of the business and of course- interior painting basics. Week after week, the members expanded their set of skills, including practice painting sessions decorating several rooms at the offices of Center for Family Life. This not only provided them with the opportunity to develop their painting skills but also to learn how to work effectively as a team.
By the end of the 10-week period, members developed a good rapport with each other and gained confidence as newly minted business owners. During the last two sessions, members met with Maria Parodi, a marketing specialist from from a consulting agency, Vidal Partnership, to learn about branding and marketing. Ms. Parodi also helped them develop their business name and positioning. These trainings were filled with energy and geared the members towards a more focused path, getting a better sense of who their target audience would be and the best ways to approach them.
On April 28th, we held a graduation ceremony for the Color Me! Cooperative. The room was filled with family members, friends and CFL staff, all of whom felt proud of the members for having come such a long way to start their very own business enterprise. As a symbolic acknowledgement of this big moment, each coop member received a certificate. We also celebrated the event with delicious food.
The Cooperative is now offering Sunset Park residents and friends of the Center a promotional offer to paint your home or apartment at a 50% discount. The promotion is for a limited time only, so give us a call today for an estimate. You can reach us at (718) 633-4823.

In May 2009 I attended the Brooklyn Food Conference at John Jay High School and PS 321 in Park Slope. The conference was organized by the Brooklyn Food Coalition, a grassroots initiative that aims to increase access to sustainable, healthy and delicious food for all. With over 2,500 people in attendance, the event was such an incredible success that organizers started thinking and planning for the next steps almost immediately.
In the last few months there has been a large effort to reach out to multiple neighborhoods in Brooklyn to get residents, workers, activists, and others involved in their particular neighborhood groups. Neighborhood groups have been discussing and selecting issues that concern them. Some of the issues that have been chosen by groups include getting healthier lunches in schools, organizing community gardens, food coops, and addressing workers' rights issues.
In September, we had our first Sunset Park Neighborhood group meeting at the Sunset Park Recreation Center. About 20 people attended, mostly organizers and activists at local organizations. Unfortunately the meeting attendees did not fully represent the diverse demographics of Sunset Park. A few of us made sure to bring this up and made a commitment that we would all recruit more workers and residents from Sunset Park.
The main themes that were brought up by the attendees were workers' rights issues, access to fresh food, and education around nutrition and various types of foods that are sold at green markets and community gardens.
The next meeting will be on Monday, October 19th at the Adult Employment Center of Center for Family Life (443 39th Street, 3rd Floor), where we will decide which issues we will tackle as the Sunset Park group. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join us for the exciting venture into the food world! For more information about the upcoming event, contact me at (718) 633-4823.
