Set E, Good Lighting Slide Set:
Set E
#1 Fireworks: one type of outdoor lighting. Not a real problem relative to glare, light trespass, or sky glow. Neither is most holiday lighting or other such low level lighting applications that are not designed for safety, security, or such applications. |
#2 A "typical" street or parking lot lighting situation: too much glare, not a good level of lighting distribution on the ground. It is using a good deal of energy, much of it wasted. We can and should do better with all outdoor lighting. It is there for a reason, and we should use both energy efficient lighting sources and quality lighting design. |
#3 The major types of lighting that we see used for outdoor lighting. They vary greatly in their energy efficiency. All of these sources are discussed in some detail in various IDA information sheets, and elsewhere in the lighting literature, but we also note them here: Incandescent is the ordinary kind of light bulb. Fluorescent lighting is used mostly for interior lighting, but more and more for outdoor lighting. Quartz lighting is a type of incandescent lighting. Metal halide is a high intensity discharge (HID) type lamp, and it is the most efficient of the "white" lights. Mercury vapor (MV) Hg Vapor lighting (another HID source) is the commonly seen harsh, bluish-white light. High pressure sodium (HPS) is also an HID lamp, very energy efficient. Its light is orange or amber looking. Low pressure sodium (LPS) is a tube source, rather like the fluorescent tubes. It is the most energy efficient. |
#4 Data comparing the common 175 watt mercury vapor lamp with a 55 watt low pressure sodium lamp. The two have about the same amount of light output. |
#5 A chart showing the source of electricity production in the U.S.A. |
#6 A chart showing the electricity usage in a number of countries. |
#7 "We Waste Over One Billion Dollars Annually Lighting Up the Night Sky." |
#8 The idea of a spectrum. This is a photo of the Moon taken with a small transmission grating placed in front of the camera lens. White light is made up of many colors. The spectrum of an incandescent lamp is rather like the spectrum of the Moon, which is actually a spectrum of sunlight reflected from the Moon, of course. |
#9 The spectral output of a typical fluorescent lamp. |
#10 The spectral output of a mercury lamp. |
#11 The spectral output of a high pressure sodium lamp. |
#12 The spectral output of a low pressure sodium lamp. |
#13 A photo of a street in Redwood City CA, with a transmission grating in front of the camera lens. One can see the spectral output of a wide variety of lighting sources in this photo, including that of low pressure sodium street lights. |
#14 Low wattage LPS lighting being used for parking lot and security lighting. |
#15 LPS being used for fence lighting at a federal prison. Very effective lighting job. |
#16 LPS being used in full cutoff fixtures for walkway lighting at a major hospital. |
#17 LPS lighting at the same hospital (slide #16, above), seen from above. Full cutoff fixtures on the left, less efficient fixtures on the right. These have since been replaced with full cutoff ones. |
#18 LPS being used for parking lot lighting, both enclosed and open deck. The ones on the top deck are full cutoff. Notice the lack of glare, and the dark sky even in the immediate vicinity of the fixtures. |
#19 A major freeway in Europe lit with LPS, a "catenary" design, not used in the U.S.A., but very good for this application. Notice the good lighting and the roadway guidance. |
#20 A full cutoff LPS street lighting fixture. They give excellent light output control, there is no glare, and no confusion of the yellow LPS with the yellow of the traffic signals. |

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin.
Alpha-tocopherol; Gamma-tocopherol
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects body tissue from damage caused by substances called free radicals. Free radicals can harm cells, tissues, and organs. They are believed to play a role in certain conditions related to aging.
The body also needs vitamin E to help keep the immune system strong against viruses and bacteria.
Vitamin E is also important in the formation of red blood cells and it helps the body use vitamin K . It also helps widen blood vessels and keep blood from clotting inside them.
Cells use vitamin E to interact with each other and carry out many important functions.
Whether vitamin E can prevent cancer, heart disease, dementia, liver disease, and stroke is still not known.
The best way to get the daily requirement of vitamin E is by eating food sources. Vitamin E is found in the following foods:
Products made from these foods, such as margarine, also contain vitamin E.
Eating vitamin E in foods is not risky or harmful. In supplement form, however, high doses of vitamin E might increase the risk for bleeding and serious bleeding in the brain.
High levels of vitamin E may also increase the risk of birth defects.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for vitamins reflect how much of each vitamin most people should get each day.
The Food and Nutrition Board at the Institute of Medicine Recommended Intakes for Individuals for vitamin E:
Infants (adequate intake of vitamin E)
Adolescents and Adults
Ask your health care provider which amount is best for you.
The highest safe level of vitamin E supplements for adults is 1,500 IU/day for natural forms of vitamin E, and 1,000 IU/day for the man-made (synthetic) form.

IShares IBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF Experiences Big Inflow
Looking today at week-over-week shares outstanding changes among the universe of ETFs covered at ETF Channel, one standout is the iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG) where we have detected an approximate $175.0 million dollar inflow -- that's a 1.1% increase week over week in outstanding units (from 165,600,000 to 167,500,000).
Click here to find out which 9 other ETFs had notable inflows »
The chart below shows the one year price performance of HYG, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, HYG's low point in its 52 week range is $88.27 per share, with $96.30 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $92.94. Comparing the most recent share price to the 200 day moving average can also be a useful technical analysis technique -- learn more about the 200 day moving average ».
Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks, but instead of ''shares'' investors are actually buying and selling ''units''. These ''units'' can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Each week we monitor the week-over-week change in shares outstanding data, to keep a lookout for those ETFs experiencing notable inflows (many new units created) or outflows (many old units destroyed). Creation of new units will mean the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings, so large flows can also impact the individual components held within ETFs.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

5 Amazing!eskiboy | 12/09/2009 | See all eskiboy's reviews (5)Top 100 Mobile Reviewer This phone is amazing i have been through a lot of phones in my life and i can say this is the best its a smart/entertainment phone with easy e-mail access and quick and fast typing with the qwerty keyboard. it is great to go around the menu with the new optical track pad. this phone also has an app store so you can enjoy the phone more but the app store isn't as good as the apple iphone's app store. This phone is great for both personal and business use you wont need the 8900 curve because this does the same thing the only difference is the camera and screen and this one looks much better and you save money . The music quality is fantastic and easy to use with the REWIND, PLAY/PAUSE, FORWARD key's on top of the handset. I highly recommend this phone to any one thats thinking of buying one!.
5 Great Phone with great Featuresfabemmy | 04/10/2009 | See all fabemmy's reviews (91)Top 100 Reviewer Top 100 Music Reviewer I love this phone its really easy to use and the new trackpad is so simply and much better than the trackball on other blackberrys.I love the fact it as similar features to the iphone including downloading applications from the blackberry app world, copying images from the internet and mp3 player and videos and more importantly it as wifi.I also love the fact it as a video camera which I think is a very good quality one.All in all I think this blackberry is worth the money.
4 jammin91Gallagher1991 | 31/05/2010 | See all Gallagher1991's reviews (1)very good phone although cant give it 5 star because the more apps, themes, games e.t.c. it gets slower and sometimes becomes inoperable even with the latest operating system. also blackberry messenger requires you to be on contract because most networks dnt have a blackberry messenger service on pay as you go but if u are on orange dolphin package it will work fine. other networks require u to be on contract so if u dnt wanna be on one then dnt get a blackberry if all u want it for is blackberry messenger. other than that a very good phone :)
2 Its ok...GOSFORTHrfc | 06/04/2010 | See all GOSFORTHrfc's reviews (13)Top 100 Mobile Reviewer so i had the choice between an 8520, Bold 9700 and an iPhone, already having an ipod touch i decided to opt for a blackberry. everybody at school has this phone so i tried it out. for me, its sluggish, tempermental, and the internet speed is shocking. the internet however is down to the lack of 3G, so in answer to a previous question, no you cant use a 3 sim card in it. but for me the two biggest problems i had with the 8520 are the screen and the build quality. the screen for starters is shocking in my opinion, icons are fuzzy and text just isnt smothed properly. but the biggest has to be the screen quality. my friend lent me hers to send a text and all i can say is the keys are plasticy, the rubber on the back is tacky and the back case is so easy to pull off. all of these factors led me to getting the bold 9700, which improves all of these downfalls (and i actually mean it) however i do thing this phone deserves ** because to put it simply, it is a blackberry, it does exactly what is says on the tin, email internet music photos videos and it does them all to a reasonable level, especially the former.so my question i pose to you, is are you desparate for a blackberry?can you only afford an 8520?do you have a bb data plan (VERY IMPORTANT)?is music/entertainment more important than email/internet?if you answer yes, then go ahead and get this phone, however i found it wasnt right for me (:21C54C4C
2 bb messenger does not work on pay as you go!!!!blundell1985 | 08/04/2010 | See all blundell1985's reviews (1)not impressed!!!! brought the phone and the blackberry messenger does not work and wont work because you have to have a contract for it to work would of been nice if things like this were clearer because now spent 200 pound on a blackberry and one of the main features will not work!!!!

Actually this brings up a very good intellectual point that I would like to delve into as a concept in itself and possibly derail the thread as a result.
That is computer science students and really programmers and video game developers tend to forget how important marketing and management is to a successful project. A mediocre game with good marketing (Medal of Honor) will sell better than a great game with crap marketing (Vampire:Bloodlines) and developers fucking hate that, and that because they are a brilliant programmer does not mean they are good at business and marketing. Marketing is more than buzz words and force feeding crap to people. Bad marketing is all of that but good marketing has finesse and takes skill.

The first question:
Osho,How does a buddha participate totally in day-to-day life?
There is no "how" to it. When you are alert no "how" is needed. When you are awakened you act spontaneously, not with a plan in the mind, because now there exists no mind at all. A buddha responds - moment to moment. Whatsoever the situation demands, with no plan, no idea how to act, with no technique he simply responds. His response is like an echo: you go to the hills, you make noise, and the hills echo it. Have you ever asked how the hills echo? They respond. When you play on a sitar has the sitar any "how"? You may be having technique and things in the mind - what to play, what to sing - but the sitar? It simply responds to your fingers.
A buddha is a nothingness. You come around him; he responds. Remember the word responds: it is not a reaction; it is a response. When you react you have an idea in the mind - how. what. When you react you react from a position. If you come to a buddha he does not react from any position; he has none. He has no prejudice, no opinion, no ideology. He responds. He responds to the situation.
One day a man came and asked, "Does God exist?" Buddha looked at him and said, "No." And the same day. in the afternoon. another man came. He asked. "Does God exist?" Buddha looked into him and said, "Yes." And the same day, in the evening, a third man came. He asked, "Does God exist?" and Buddha remained quiet; he didn't answer.
If he had a position in the mind then the answer would he consistent, because it is not a response to the situation: it is always born out of an idea in the mind; it will be consistent. If he was an atheist, not believing in God, then whosoever the questioner it makes no difference. In fact a man of ideology never looks at you, never looks at the situation. He has a fixed idea. an obsession really. Buddha would have said, "No!" if he was an atheist, to all the three persons. If he was a theist he would have said, "Yes," to all the three persons. In fact the person, the alive situation becomes irrelevant when you have an ideology, a position, a prejudice, a pattern, a mind; then you don't look at the situation.
Otherwise, the responses will be totally different. There will be a deep running consistency - consistency of being, not of answers. Buddha is the same when he said no. Buddha is the same when he said yes. Buddha is the same when he didn't say anything and remained silent, but the situations were different.

Timlin trying to go from Cooperstown to majors
By Samantha Carr
When he arrived in Cooperstown along with Hall of Famers and fellow former major leaguers for the Inaugural Hall of Fame Classic, Mike Timlin made it clear that he was the one player who was not retired.
"Nothing's totally official," said Timlin, who last played in 2008 with the Boston Red Sox. "I had my name out there in Spring Training, so something could happen this summer. If someone gives me a call that I would deem worthy to walk away from the family for a little while, it could happen."
The Colorado Rockies made that call.
The 43-year-old Timlin signed a minor league contract with the Rockies and reported to the Pioneer League's Casper Ghosts on a rehab assignment July 29. He threw two scoreless outings for the rookie-league level Ghosts before being promoted to the Rockies' Triple-A club in Colorado Springs. He made his Sky Sox debut on Thursday night, pitching one-and-two-thirds scoreless innings against Nashville.
The Classic, which took place on Father's Day, brought five Hall of Famers and more than 20 former major league stars to Doubleday Field in Cooperstown. Although Timlin's team lost, he made an effort to get everyone who participated to autograph his jersey.
Timlin has played for the Blue Jays, Mariners, Orioles, Cardinals, Phillies and Red Sox in 18 big league seasons, has a 4.26 ERA in 46 postseason appearances with 41 strikeouts and is the all-time leader in relief appearances by a right-hander with 1,054. He got the save in the final game of the 1992 World Series for Toronto.
Fifteen years to the day later, he made an appearance in Game 1 of the 2007 Fall Classic, throwing one inning of scoreless relief for Boston. Timlin was part of World Series championship teams with Toronto (1992 and 1993) and Boston (2004 and 2007).
Samantha Carr is media relations coordinator at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Westerners have recently rediscovered the green tea. It has its origin in China; the Chinese believe that green tea has the ability to prevent many hazardous diseases, and even treat symptoms of others. This belief has now passed on to the western world, through word of mouth, and of course, the most well-known promotional tool in the world: the Internet. The west is now slowly adapting to the taste of green tea instead of black tea; not everyone likes the idea of 'green' tea, but the color is paler, not green, and the flavor is crisper. Green tea is made from a leaf called Camellia Sinensis, most commonly. These leaves do not require a high amount of oxidation and which makes green tea a good source of the antioxidants known as "Catechins". Antioxidants & CatechinsAntioxidants are agents that fight free radicals in the body. Free radicals can cause cell damage and a number of other diseases, --free radicals, are abnormal foreign agents, in some cases, and they are linked to the development of various kinds of cancer. Catechin in green tea is what gives it the strong taste and smell. Catechin also has the capability to move up to infiltrate our body's natural digestive system. It once absorbed by our digestive system, it's filtered through the blood, where it eventually, reaches our retina, and eyes. The catechins then protect the eyes and reduce the occurrence of eye diseases. Research has been done on whether or not green tea can prevent glaucoma; the findings are pretty amazing. Glaucoma is a disease that can cause loss of eyesight, visual impairment, and even permanent blindness. How it WorksAn experiment was conducted on mice to prove that green tea can fight eye ailments. The tiny animals were fed green tea orally on a regular basis, and then their eye tissues were analyzed. The analysis revealed that the retina absorbed the highest number of catechins. The antioxidant lowered the harmful oxidative pressure in the eye and the effect lasted for about twenty hours. Many people are also aware of green tea's effect on weight loss; everyone seems to be jumping on some kind of green tea fad diet. Well, these diets aren't just trendy, 'here today, gone tomorrow', weight loss schemes. When used in your regular diet program and health regime it is extremely beneficial. People who replaced coffee for green tea rarely come back to coffee. Add Green Tea for a Healthier Future!Because of its medicinal values in the last few years Green tea has become an important subject of scientific research and analysis. These studies have proven that green tea also has other medicinal effects and benefits that help in reducing or preventing some hazardous diseases like cancer. Even more studies have proven that green tea may be effective in the treatment of joint diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis, or impaired immune disease and other serious illnesses associated with the liver. A cup of green tea is a good refresher and pumps in a high amount of energy in to the system, --and don't forget, it tastes great too!

Just wondering if it would be possible to include the thread originations date in the box listing the originators name/handle?
Mark,There are many instances where the person who starts a thread goes MIA and never appears again. Here's an example: http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,8247.0.html. Here's another: http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,8167.msg70317.html#msg70317. It might help Steve is you explain the rationale for doing what you propose.Peter
But if it shows the date of the last post(which will be a recent date)since your last visit and you click on it...isn't that current?Not sure I know what you mean I guess... You try'in to cause trouble around here again Mark ?
OK, Bob I'll splain it better! The last post date does not set the stage for the thread, time wise. If a thread was started in 2009 and left dormant till today, when an unlikely browser found it and decided to post a reply, then the original thread is a bit dated, may still be a great thread I admit, but I may not want to open such an old thread. There are only so many threads I can absorb in one life time and mine is getting shorter by the day in fact is that an angel at my door?Mark

The Golden Wave: Power and the Gift in Post-Tsunami Sri Lanka
Following the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, Sri Lanka was immediately overwhelmed with a second wave – an influx of disaster relief of unprecedented proportions. This presentation examines the effects of large-scale humanitarian aid by focusing on the power dynamics inherent in giving and receiving gifts. People on Sri Lanka's southwest coast reshaped identities of class, citizenship, and nationality in the aftermath of the disaster. Using discourse analysis, the talk explores how through narratives about humanitarian aid, people rebuilt hierarchies, communities, and enmities.

The Cost of Cheap Clothes: Industrial Dystopia and Everyday Life of Female Garment Labor in Bangladesh
How do working-class women in the readymade garment manufacturing (RMG) industry encounter modernity? This paper is an assessment of the everyday lives of female garment industry workers as they travel between the domestic and public spheres as young workers. Bangladesh is touted as the 'cheapest" place to manufacture clothes, and its workers are paid the lowest wages in the world while their labor is the source of a $20+ billion revenue stream for the country. The garment industry employs over 4 million young women, mostly poor migrants from rural to urban areas. Following the eight-story factory collapse in April 2013, the world has learned about the dire conditions and low wages under which poor women stitch clothes for major American and European labels. Less is known about these women's private lives. These women are more than workers; they are sisters, mothers, lovers, activists, and poets. Their migration from rural to urban areas has radically altered how they hope to live in the modern world, and has introduced new social identities and ideas. This paper is an examination of the changes in factory women's lives as they become part of the global supply chain of commodities.

'In the World, but Not of the World': The Paradox of Plastic Surgery among Latter-day Saint Women in Utah.
The body is a powerful symbol of individual and collective identity among members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS, or "Mormons"). Yet physical appearance is also employed by Church members to mark acceptance into mainstream society, rendering management of the body and its covering especially important, particularly in cases where the two value systems differ. Give the admonition to be "in the world, but not of the world," meaning to resist outside practices that challenge church teachings, including prohibitions against other types of body modification, cosmetic surgery appears contradictory. However, Utah, the center of the Mormon religion, boasts one of the highest concentrations of plastic surgeons in the U.S. Several cultural factors influence LDS women to have surgery, including the high birth rates that move women's bodies away from the mainstream cultural ideal. Since physical beauty is a marker of status for women in both mainstream and Mormon society, Plastic surgery has proven to be a useful tool for gaining and maintain symbolic capital in both worlds. This talk will investigate the ways Mormon women employ surgery to fashion a mainstream, yet simultaneously Mormon, identity using the visual language of the body.

"Why Tank Man Still Matters" - This talk examines the performative nature of iconic photographs, considering what happens when iconic photographs are modified and repurposed to new political ends. Specifically, it considers contemporary appropriations of the 1989 "Tank Man" photograph of a lone man confronting a column of Chinese tanks in Tiananmen Square. By doing so, this article analyzes the conflicting temporal and spatial trajectories through which the meaning of Tank Man is inscribed and has value as a symbol of global and domestic citizenship. In the contemporary era, these appropriations speak less about the possibilities for political liberalism and democratic dissent in China that were encapsulated in the original Tank Man image and more about their absence in the contemporary United States.

Good thread, though...obviously.
Founder and Ruling Elite of the Derrick Robinson Fan Club. Limited amount of memberships available.
You had to go and bring that up didn't you? Other people thought I was a genius until this post...
You're right, if you only have two people in the game thread, it more or less just becomes an observation thread...more for people that just want to follow along and can't watch or listen through some other media, rather than those that want to contribute.
I just figured it'd be a good way to develop a friendly atmosphere and allow for 2 people each night to show off their talent, humor, and sarcasm, of lack thereof, in special way.

Welcome to the Snafu Art Contest Voting Thread.
There is some groundwork for this thing to understand what happens here. This is the guide post that will explain how this thread and the voting process will work.
1:In order to be valid to participate, you must meet the requirements set by the announcement thread. However, anyone and everyone who is a member of this site is allowed to vote.
2: The post below this will be used as an archive and tracking record for the votes. So it will be the "stats" page. What will happen is that the participants will post a link or the image itself into the main contest thread, which is also the Announcement thread. I have linked the entries and further websites on the page as well so it is easier to vote.
3: VOTING RULES: The process is simple, you are allowed one vote per person. You will post who you think should win in this thread once the voting process opens up. The voting process will open on the 6th of August, and conclude a week later on the 13th of August. On that date, the votes will be counted and double checked and a winner will be announced.
(More Details)
1: One vote is allowed per person.
2: To vote, you simply post the person's name.
3: There is one thing we do want to see, and you can get as detailed as you want on this. Provide some feedback. Just something simple, what you liked about it, etc (I can't let you post a single word since its considered to be spam). Their Art threads are listed to allow you to provide more direct and complex feedback on their works and their future projects as well. DA accounts and others were provided to allow you to follow them.
4: RE-VOTING: Make your first vote count, but I will allow you to have one re-vote. In that case, I need you to tell me you re-voted so I don't count you twice.
4: CHEATING: Should you get caught cheating, like using other people's art work or creating alternate accounts to boost your votes, you will be disqualified and your votes given to me. Furthermore, you will not be allowed to compete in the next competition until the next year. We know if you use an alternate account, we are moderators, we have the tools to find out.
Questions? Post them or PM me.

FLORISSANT, Mo (KMOV.com) -- A Florissant woman says she has received numerous threatening phone calls from a number posing as the police.
Kristine Foust says the calls registered a caller ID from the Florissant Police Department. She said the calls are threatening and convincing.
"They told me they were sending detectives here," Foust said. "And I was going to be arrested."
A spokesperson from Florissant police said those calls did not come from them. The calls appeared to come from a company overseas and its goal is to find people who owe delinquent payday loans.
But Foust said the calls kept coming telling her she and her daughter needed to pay several hundreds of dollars for a late loan payment. She said the person on the other end wouldn't give his name and the calls don't show up on her phone's caller history.
Foust contacted the Missouri Attorney General's Office. Officials told her it was a scam and the company somehow manipulated the phone number to make it look like it was from the Florissant Police Department.
"They said they can make from where they're calling any number they wish," Foust said. "They can make it my next door neighbor. They can make it the service station down the road. They can make it the police station."
Foust said her ex-husband was close to writing a check on behalf of their daughter, but they received this advice from the Attorney General's Office.
"I remember they said hang up," said Foust. "Hang up as quick as you can."

Filling the Gap from DOORS Requirements through Component Design
Technology Overview
IBM DOORS is nearly universally used by the Mil-Aero industry to capture and manage system level requirements. On the other hand, at the detail design stage DOORS is considered by most engineering teams to be not agile enough and is seldom used by the CCA board, software, FPGA/ASIC design and verification teams. The most popular detail design stage's requirement capture tool is Microsoft Office. Thus, too often there can exist a requirement tracing gap at the boundary between the system engineering and the PCB, SW, digital electronics design teams. Mentor Graphics' ReqTracer solves this problem with an automated solution for tracing requirements out of DOORS into MS Office documents, spreadsheets, DxD schematic capture, source code targeting software and hardware. When the verification team tag their test bench code and test result messages or assertions, then ReqTracer can be used to automatically show system level requirements traceability continuously from DOORS down through multiple levels of elaborated requirements captured outside of DOORS ending with the test result logs.

1) People are basically weak which without a moral benchmark become barbarians.
2) Pacifism is morally dysfunctional.
Gandhi suggested the Jews should not resist the Nazis so that they (Nazis) would see the error of their ways. Ya...right.
3) People must arm themselves to fight evil.
4) The death of Christianity is the tragedy of the west.
5) ...at first Nazis were only a Jewish problem....later they became everybody's problem...
...the middle east terrorists were only an Israeli problem....now Europe; Russia; America; the Philippines; China; India and South America have Islamic fanaticism terror problems.

15 Young Firms to Watch: Altius Architecture, Toronto

"We started more as a designer/builders than anything else, in order to get our foot in the door. We did additions, renovations, anything we could do to get some experience."
"Doing construction management has set us apart from other architecture firms."
altius architecture toronto www.altius.net
Altius Architecture's founders bootstrapped their firm into existence. "We basically decided to start a firm right out of school," says principal Cathy Garrido, AIA, LEED AP. Partners Graham Smith, MRAIC, LEED AP, and Trevor McIvor, MRAIC, piloted the firm's early design/build projects. Garrido helped structure and manage the practice, while booking enough internship hours at her day job to sit for her license. After three years, she joined her former schoolmates full time, helped them get licensed, and, as they say, Bob's your uncle.
Modernists with a commitment to sustainability, the partners have built a portfolio of houses whose bold geometries—on urban infill sites or the dramatic lakefronts of Ontario's "cottage country"—prove their self-confidence was not misplaced. Equally distinctive is the firm's heads-up approach to business. Despite complaints from others in the field, Garrido says, "we thought there was no reason why we shouldn't be able to make a decent living as architects." The ability to perform construction management helps Altius stand out in the market, she says, and maintaining a business plan, setting revenue targets, and following a marketing plan have yielded their intended result. "For the past 10 years, it's been pretty steady growth."

Conscious sedation is a combination of medicines to help you relax (a sedative) and to block pain (an anesthetic) during a medical or dental procedure. You will probably stay awake but may not be able to speak.
Conscious sedation lets you recover quickly and return to your everyday activities soon after your procedure.
A nurse, doctor, or dentist, will give you conscious sedation in the hospital or outpatient clinic. Most of the time, it will not be an anesthesiologist. The medicine will wear off quickly, so it is used for short, uncomplicated procedures.
You may receive the medicine through an intravenous line (IV, in a vein) or a shot into a muscle. You will begin to feel drowsy and relaxed very quickly. If your doctor gives you the medicine to swallow, you will feel the effects after about 30 to 60 minutes.
Your breathing will slow down, and your blood pressure may drop a little. Your nurse or doctor will monitor you every 3 to 5 minutes during your procedure to make sure you are okay. This person will stay with you at all times during the procedure.
You should not need help with your breathing. But you may receive extra oxygen through a mask or IV fluids through a catheter (tube) into a vein.
You may fall asleep, but you will wake up easily to respond to people in the room. You may be able to respond to verbal cues. After conscious sedation, you may feel drowsy and not remember much about your procedure.
Anesthesia - conscious
Conscious sedation is safe and effective for patients who need minor surgery or a procedure to diagnose a condition.
Some of the tests and procedures conscious sedation may be used for are:
Conscious sedation is usually safe. However, if you are given too much of the medicine, problems with your breathing may occur. A doctor or nurse will be watching you during the whole procedure.
Health care providers always have special equipment to help you with your breathing, if needed. Only certain qualified health professionals can provide conscious sedation.
Always tell your doctor or nurse:
During the days before your procedure:
On the day of your procedure:
After conscious sedation, you will feel sleepy and may have a headache or feel sick to your stomach. During recovery, your finger will be clipped to a special device (pulse oximeter) to check the oxygen levels in your blood. Your blood pressure will be checked with an arm cuff about every 15 minutes.
You should be able to go home 1 to 2 hours after your procedure.
When you are home:
Conscious sedation is generally safe, and is an option for procedures or diagnostic tests.

I bought photo and scrapbooking storage boxes to store and stack my electron gear. Use a Brother labeller to identify each box - camera, ear phones, IPOD, CD player, GPS, cables. Used brown photo and flowery brown scrapbook boxes and store them neatly on bottom shelf of coffee table. Neat, accessible, organized, labelled, at reasonable cost.

quote:Posting on a message board, going to church and praying and voting for candidates that have no chance of changing the law is not fighting.
quote:No? So... murder stands apart from abortion simply by a matter of timing, you say? Hmmmm....?
quote:I'd have a hard time calling it murder as long as the fetus in the womb, but abortion of viable fetuses is close enough that I'm uncomfortable with it.
quote:Fetal viability.
quote:Since the legal definition of murder is the unlawful taking of a human life
quote:Why does the location inside the womb matter?
quote:Since the legal definition of murder is the unlawful taking of a human life abortion cannot be murder since it is lawful. Why not ask should abortion be murder? To that I would say yes for either religious or secular human reasons. For religious reasons the Catholic Church has made all the necessary arguments, and I'll defer to them. For secular human reasons if diversity is good, and evolution leads to an improved species, then every viable unique DNA molecule should be priceless. Willfully destrying a unique DNA molecule is harmful to diversity and retards the evolutionary process.
quote:I'm not comfortable throwing that word around regarding something that's still in it's mother's womb, and dependent on another body for survival. Is it a termination of life? Sure.
quote:Furthermore abortion is a settled issue. It's regulated and here to stay. If reps continue to make this an issue they're ceding the presidency to the dems for years to come. This is basically a who gives a shite thread - nothing is changing.
quote:This thread ended here. I hate abortion, but this post is the truth and nothing will change.
quote:Of course it is. It takes some serious mental gymnastics to convince yourself that it isn't.

Following feedback from participants, the GNTB has made extensive improvements to the networking tool by optimising its functions and user-friendliness. Before, during and after the GTM, the networking tool enables all participants to:
Search for and find interesting contacts
A detailed search function enables you to search specifically for providers whose portfolios contain precisely the products you are looking for. The tool also suggests to you contacts whose products and services match the search terms entered in your profile ('I'm looking for / They're offering' principle).
This enables you to find the most suitable contacts quickly and easily.
The message function enables you to agree on possible topics, interests and lines of business with your contacts before the GTM has even begun, making your face-to-face discussions and negotiations during the event more effective.
Arrange appointments
The appointments you arrange using the tool will be compiled to create a personal schedule for you. You can export this to Excel and/or Outlook whenever you need it. Requested, confirmed and blocked appointments are shown in different colours.
Around 20,000 appointments were agreed in relation with the 2014 GTM - arrange your appointments for the 2015 GTM!
The tool's extensive functions enable everyone to prepare effectively for the GTM so that meetings held at the event will be efficient and successful.
Create an individual profile
You can personalise your networking profile by posting your photo or a logo, adding key words to the 'I'm looking for' and 'I'm offering' functions, uploading documents with your company profile or products and services, and much more...
Use this networking tool – these and the many other functions will ensure you are as prepared as you possibly can be for a successful GTM!
The use of the networking tool is possible only after confirmed application to the GTM 2015 from the end of March on.
