3.63/5 rDev +3.1%
What you'd expect in an IPA. Golden pale color with moderate head.
Smell of floral hoppiness.
Taste is a good hop kick but not overpowering. Strong, yet smooth wallop of hops with no strong aftertaste.
The feel was smooth and on the crisp side.
Very drinkable. I'll have another.

First off this is not a double IPA but rather is just a regular single IPA. It poured a nice pale amber with a good frothy white head and some side glass lace. The aroma was fresh, nice floral hops with a touch of sweetness. The flavor was a touch muted, somewhat thin, but still quite decent. The finish was very nice and I actually seemed to like this more as time went on. Overall not a bad IPA, but I have had better, needs a little more depth to make it special.

This is the staple brew for the Downtown Brewery and Grill. And it should be. It's the best beer they serve. It's everything that you'd want in an IPA, and little that you wouldn't. A good hop-heavy balance between bitter and sweet, citrusy and smooth, malty and piney. It heald a nice head retention and adequately carbonated. Lacing well and releasing a strong grapefruit and pine boquet. Very nice and assertive flavors of a medium caramel / bready malt base and very spicy hops. Not over the top, but nicely balanced. Bigger than moderate in the body with a sweet, dry finish. Very nice.

Draft. Good for a brewpub. Big fish, small pond brew. Nothing unique, but hoppy enough to remember. And while this is a beer review forum, I feel compelled to say that the atmosphere is worth the stop alone. We came in from Pigeon Forge while on vacation and walked into Live Jazz Sunday Brunch. Food was stellar!
*This place has phenomenal 1 and 2L growlers with Grolsch-style tops! A must-have if you don't already!

The beer arrived at the table a medium goldern with a white persistent head which laced the glass.
The aroma was citrusy hops even though the desciption was English hops. There was also a slight fruitiness.
The flavor was earthy English hop flavor and bitterness with caramel.
The finish was dry with a lasting hop impression into the aftertaste. The body was medium.
A nice beer.
The server said the IPA was the highest alcohol beer she served. I did not sense that at all. She also said this was their best selling beer.

Got this at the Brewery...
Appearance: copper with a half inch white head (great looking)
Smell: lots of hops; good smell; no mustiness
Taste: this is a great beer; very hoppy; no fruitiness as some IPAs have
Mouthfeel: medium to full bodied
Drinkability: had two in a night
Overall, a very impressive beer. This was a nice treat to start off my trip in Knoxville.

Growler. Poured a clear, golden color with a medium white head. Strong lacing. Pleasant citrus aroma with a hint a sweet malt to it. Mouthfeel is nice. Flavor is a pleasant hoppy taste. Citrus is very apparent, with a nice sweet caramel touch to it. Finish has a pine taste to it. A nice brewpub IPA.

I had this on tap at the brewpub, in a pint glass. It was a bit of a disappointment to me, sort of a bitter English IPA with little in the way of hoppy character. Otherwise not much to note about it. Clear, golden color, decent head, etc etc. The body was maybe a little fuller than usual for an IPA, that was the highpoint for me. But the lingering bitterness left me wanting something else. Not bad per se, just kind of middling.

On my way to Chicago, we stayed in Knoxville, I was also told by the server that this was the most popular beer. The style it is listed as is wrong though, this is an American IPA, not a double.
That being said, I am glad the people of Tennessee have taste because this was my favorite beer as well and it had a great hop aroma and flavor. Extremely drinkable well made beer.
Restaurant is very big and food was more than acceptable for the pub fare we ordered.

McDougall CD nominated for Juno
School of Music Professor Emeritus Ian McDougall's Fine Arts benefit CD, The Very Thought of You, has been nominated for a 2013 Juno Award for Instrumental Album of the Year. It was produced by McDougall's wife, Barbara, and features a selection of jazz standards with strings. The album's nomination came as a surprise to them both.

CRANSTON - The loud buzzing, vibrating sound is music to the ears of Rhode Island drivers. It's nNew technology that works to improve pothole repairs.
"It's a vibratory roller...and it vibratory aligns all theparticles to jam them into the hole and you'll get 20–30% more material... Andyou'll get 3–5 times the life out of the hole," said Karl Wadensten, President of VIBCO.
The Rhode Island based company is the creator of theequipment, and it's donating the machines to municipalities in the state, starting with Cranston.
"We're trying it out, it seems to be working very well, itshould be once and done, stuff won't come out of the holes," said John Corso, Highway Superintendent of Cranston.
That will be especially important after the next bout of wetweather and cold temperatures - typically the cause of re–opening potholes.
VIBCO is willing to put its product to the test... markingthe most recent repairs... so that once the winter weather is over everyone will see which patches withstood the test of time.
"This is high tech, this is pothole patrol, Rhode Island pothole patrol!" said Wadensten.
In return for the equipment, VIBCO is asking for feedbackfrom the cities and towns who use the machines.
They eventually want to go international with this product.

Football Outsiders does a nice job making readers aware of statistics that they did not previously know. Their latest statistical analysis comes in the form of broken tackles. The Football Outsiders define a "broken tackle" as, the ball carrier escaping from the grasp of the defender, or the ball carrier juking out a defensive player that was in good position to make a tackle. Many would likely not be surprised that the Bengals were tied for third to last in percentage of plays with a broken tackle last season.
According to Football Outsiders, the Bengals ran 1004 offensive plays last season. They had only 37 plays with a broken tackle, resulting in only 39 broken tackles total. That ends up as only 3.7 percent of plays resulting in a broken tackle for the Bengals. The team with the best broken tackle percentage was the Philadelphia Eagles, with 8.4 percent. This was in large part to quarterback Michael Vick tying Tim Tebow for the league lead in most broken tackles by a quarterback, with 22. Eagles running back LeSean McCoy also had the most broken tackles by a running back, with 50.
In 2010, new Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis finished fifth to last in broken tackle percentage, with a 4.1 percentage rate. This is not surprising, as Green-Ellis is not known as a back likely to break many tackles. If the Bengals want to improve on their broken tackle rate from last season, they will likely need to draft a shifty back in the first three rounds. Some possibilities could be Miami (FL) running back Lamar Miller, Virginia Tech's David Wilson, Oregon's LaMichael James, and Cincinnati's Isaiah Pead. Many of these running backs could follow in the footsteps of Falcon's back Jacquizz Rodgers, who lead rookies with 19 broken tackles. He did this while getting only 78 touches.

Irrefutable logic when weighed against the designs of every two bit desert-dwelling nut job with a B-40 and a dream. But what happens if the aforementioned nut job already has the B-40 (or 500 pounds of ammonium nitrate) and the dream; but isn't dwelling in the desert? What if he's in Detroit, or downtown Manhattan?

The countdown started in Sarajevo in June 1914, the conflagration followed in August. The assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serb nationalist set in motion a series of events in which the great European powers marched, with near lockstep, into a war that would devour seventeen million people, devastate nations and dismantle empires.
On Aug. 12, Brazil's largest news program, Jornal Nacional, interviewed presidential candidate Eduardo Campos. Of his 15 minutes replying to questions, he spent at least 10 of them touting the presence of his family in the state apparatus. He filled the remaining time with banalities such as "we can't give Brazil up."

The impasse over a special law on uncovering the truth behind the Sewol ferry disaster is another sobering example of politicians' dismal performance. Yet, it should be noted that at the root of the debacle is a lack of trust and communication.

In calling for global action against the "cancer" of Islamic State (IS) militants, U.S. President Barack Obama puts the fight against them at the top of his agenda in a move that also raises questions about his military strategy in Iraq.
Outrage over the fatal shooting of an African-American teenager is giving way to anger that the white police officer who pulled the trigger might never face justice.
South Korea is a paradise for religions. Indeed, Koreans are so religious that all kinds of religions thrive here. Most Koreans are either Christians or Buddhists, but you can also find Muslims in Korea.
Thailand's National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) says it will give the 250-member National Reform Council (NRC) a "free hand" in debating the 11 areas of proposed reform. But the final decision on who will be named to the council still rests with the NCPO.

Under a photo of U.S. President Barack Obama carried by demonstrators in a town rocked by racially charged protests, the appeal to America's first black president is loud and clear: "Please come now."
During the election campaign Prime Minister Narendra Modi was asked by a TV interviewer whether he would hold talks with Pakistan amid continuing terror attacks. Modi said that one cannot talk under the sound of gunfire. Recently on a visit to Kashmir the PM told a gathering that Pakistan was conducting a proxy war through cross border terrorism. Despite this the government initiated moves for talks between foreign secretaries slated for Aug. 25., 2 Comments

Dimetrodon is mistaken for a dinosaur more often than any other prehistoric reptile--but the fact is that this creature lived tens of millions of years before the first dinosaurs had even evolved. Here are 10 facts you may or may not have known about this sail-backed pelycosaur. (See also a gallery of Dimetrodon pictures.)
1. Dimetrodon wasn't actually a dinosaur...
Although it looked superficially like a dinosaur, Dimetrodon was actually a type of prehistoric reptile known as a pelycosaur. The pelycosaurs were themselves more closely related to the therapsids, or "mammal-like reptiles," than to the archosaurs from which dinosaurs evolved--which means that, technically speaking, Dimetrodon was closer to being a mammal than it was to being a dinosaur!
2. ...and it lived 50 million years before the first dinosaurs appeared on earth.
Even people who know that Dimetrodon wasn't technically a dinosaur mistakenly assume that it lived alongside its more famous cousins. In fact, Dimetrodon prospered during the middle Permian period, between 280 and 265 million years ago, while the first dinosaurs (according to our current state of knowledge) evolved in South America during the middle Triassic period, about 50 million years later.
3. Dimetrodon was a close relative of Edaphosaurus...
To the untrained eye, Edaphosaurus may look like nothing more than a scaled-down version of Dimetrodon, complete with a miniaturized sail. However, this ancient pelycosaur subsisted mostly on plants and mollusks, whereas Dimetrodon was a devoted meat eater. (In fact, the 200-pound Edaphosaurus was one of the first substantially sized plant eaters on the planet.)
4. ..and the strangely named Casea...
Yet another obscure pelycosaur of the Permian period, Casea (Greek for "cheese"), was halfway in heft between Dimetrodon and Edaphosaurus. What distinguished this reptile from its more famous cousins was its lack of a sail, which drew attention to its grotesquely swollen belly (the plant-eating Casea needed plenty of intestines to process tough vegetable matter) and slug-like trunk.
5. ...which it may have eaten for lunch and dinner.
Edaphosaurus lived slightly before the golden age of Dimetrodon (during the late Carboniferous and early Permian periods), while Casea appeared on the scene slightly afterward, at the cusp of the Triassic period. However, it's possible that these three genera briefly overlapped, so it may well have been the case that Dimetrodon occasionally preyed on its smaller pelycosaur cousins.
6. Dimetrodon may have used its sail to warm up in the sun...
The most distinctive feature of Dimetrodon was this pelycosaur's giant sail, the like of which wasn't seen again until the late Cretaceous Spinosaurus. Since this slow-moving reptile almost certainly had a cold-blooded metabolism, it may have evolved this sail as a temperature-regulation device, using it to soak up valuable sunlight during the daytime and dissipate excess heat at night.
7. ...or to attract members of the opposite sex.
Not everyone subscribes to the sail-as-solar-panel theory. Dimetrodon's sail may have been secondarily (or even strictly) a sexually selected characteristic, meaning that males with bigger sails established dominance within the herd and had the opportunity to mate with more females. (It's also possible that females, rather than males, were endowed with bigger sails; we don't have enough fossil evidence to say for sure!)
8. The name Dimetrodon means "two measures of teeth."
Given its prominent sail, it's an odd fact that Dimetrodon was named after one of its more obscure features, the two different kinds of teeth embedded in its jaws. The dental arsenal of Dimetrodon included sharp canines in the front of its snout, ideal for digging into quivering, freshly killed prey, and shearing teeth in the back for grinding up tough muscle and bits of bone.
9. Dimetrodon walked with a splay-legged posture.
One of the primary features that distinguished true dinosaurs from the archosaurs, pelcyosaurs and therapsids that preceded them was the upright orientation of their limbs. That's why we can be sure that Dimetrodon wasn't a dinosaur: this reptile walked with an ambling, splay-footed, crocodilian gait, rather than the vertical posture of comparably sized quadrupedal dinosaurs.
10. Dimetrodon fossils have been discovered in Europe and North America.
There are no less than 15 named species of Dimetrodon, all of which have been discovered in North America and western Europe. A full one-third of these species were named by the famous American dinosaur hunter Edward Drinker Cope, which may help to explain why Dimetrodon is so often identified as a a dinosaur rather than a pelycosaur, even by people who should know better!

For the longest time now, it's been widely rumored that the Cleveland Browns are ready to take the elusive Johnny Manziel in the upcoming 2014 NFL Draft and begin to rebuild their franchise with him under the new regime. Well, according to NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah, the team actually might be taking a hard look at a quarterback from further out west in the form of Fresno State's Derek Carr.
On Wednesday, Jeremiah noted that from what he gathered at the recent NFL Scouting Combine was that that's exactly the direction the team is looking into going.
"Their guy is (Fresno State quarterback) Derek Carr and they're going to take a different player with the fourth pick and they want to take Derek Carr with their second one (at No. 26). … I heard that from several different places."
Under the old crew, Johnny Manziel may have been the case, but the new men in charge might be ready to build the teal up once again with the pro-style attributes of Carr as opposed to the all-around athleticism of Manziel.
I mean, neither can be worse than Brandon Weeden, right?

I'm concerned about my connection at Heathrow. Our flight into Heathrow has been very late almost every day recently. We're concerned that we won't make our connection to Rome. I want to know what to expect from the airline in case that happens.
The flight is British Airways 286, which is scheduled to arrive at 13:30. The connecting flight is British Airways 554, and it's scheduled to leave at 15:40. That's all perfectly fine in theory. But many recent 286 flights have arrived too late to make it through security and everything else, even with all-carryon, even T5 to T5.
What is the airline's obligation in such cases? What is British Airways' usual practice? What if the one remaining flight is full? Do they give you a hotel room, a sandwich at Pret, or nothing at all?
I haven't asked British Airways yet. I want to go in with some background.
What should I know about British Airways missed connection practice?

Did you buy the flights all as one ticket?

Easy, steady there, big fella. 286 has been on-time or early for all but one or two days for the past couple of weeks. Currently, it's scheduled to leave at 8:45pm and arrive at 2:00pm. After the UK switches to DST, it'll depart at 7:20pm and arrive at 1:30pm. (And in the unlikely event that you miss your flight, BA has another service to Rome at 6:25pm.)
Report Abuse
Yeah - that DST will bite you every time.

I have missed a connection under similar circumstances when flying BA to Ireland via London. BA will rebook you at no charge if it was all booked as one ticket.
Report Abuse
Few years ago I flew BA from Toronto to London to connect with BA to Warsaw. The flight was late and all I could do was to talk to BA agents in London. They booked me on the next available flight with LOT(not a partner with OneWorld Alliance) since their own last flight to Warsaw was gone, without even blinking an eye. I arrived in Warsaw few hours later than scheduled but no damage done.

Thanks to P_M and AAFrequentFlyer for the first hand experience.
To Smeagol's question whether I booked it all on one ticket: Yes, all one ticket.
And hey there, little guy DonTopaz! Good points, and thanks for your reply. Still, BA 286 is on time only 58 percent of the time. I'm always optimistic -- isn't that a requirement for happy travel? -- but I still want to travel as well prepared as I can be.
Report Abuse
Cannolo, you're absolutely right: preparation and knowledge make travel a lot easier. (I also like your handle -- lots of fun to walk into a bakery in the US, ask for a cannolo or biscotto, and enjoy the puzzled expressions.)
Report Abuse
DonTopaz, you're a man of culture! You're right, "cannolo" can be fun. To the few who'll go further and ask why cannolo and not "cannoli," you put on the Mr. Peabody (and His Boy Sherman) act: "Because cannoli are singular pastries." That stops them.

HAHAHA!!! Well stated.Cannolo!!

When I travel depending on a connection I always research in advance what the later flights are on all airlines (search on kayak or momondo or similar) and bring a print out in case they seem stubborn about putting you on another flight (they do not always offer to put you on another airlines flight because it costs them but if you point it out to them as a choice they might suddenly find it available to you).
Report Abuse
Since you will be flying in with an EU based carrier, you have extended statutory rights in case of (non weather-, non force mayeure- related) delays or cancellations.
Depending on whether your trip will be regarded as one from outside the EU to Rome (via LHR) or just the last leg LHR-FCO is taken into accout, arriving in Rome 3 hours late or more results in statutory penalties of €600 or 400, respectively.
While most airlines try to avoid cashing out, it usually motivates them to put you on any available next flight - also on other airlines - to keep the delay under 3 hrs if possible.
Report Abuse
We had a missed connection at LHR due to a delayed departure of our original BA flight from YYZ (Toronto) . We were informed by BA of the delay prior to our departure for the airport and told we could book a new connecting flight at the airport. This was done easily and we got on flight which got us to our destination, Prague about 3 hours late. It's worth noting that this booking, on one ticket, was done on Expedia, which was slower to notify us of the change and offered us a flight many hours later than the one provided by BA. I've booked directly with the airline ever since.

Thank you, laurie_ann, Cowboy1968, and eliztravels2. All valuable info. Thanks!

Spectrum Wind by Duncan McDaniel Nashville Airport
Looking up into the skylight, I saw this very interesting sculpture during my layover enroute to Florida. It's made with plastic SOLO cups.
I read there are three other skylight art installations but I am returning through Baltimore.
St. Mary of the Mount- Grandview Avenue- Pittsburgh PA
When we were walking around the Three Rivers Arts Festival, I looked up and saw this church on the top of Mount Washington.

Dancing at Bougival as Turn of the Century Giant Sculpture
I was downtown at the Camera Repair Service again. Don't ask. Used a different camera card to experiment and tes.
Here is the delight of the day- (Stef!)
A monumental sculpture by J Seward Johnson has been at PPG Place for "about four days", the guard said.
But don't worry. The giant dancers will be in place until October.
Dancing at Bougival (painted in 1883 by Pierre A. Renoir ) is in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Grandma and the Grammy Winner
That's what the nice man said as he took the picture of V and me with Honorary Chair of Art For Change- Broadway singer/actor Kinky Boots Billy Porter!
He's won a Tony award for Best Musical Actor 2013!
Mr. Porter got the crowd riled up at the beginning of the night, getting a Kinky Boots NYC package sold for ten thousand dollars. It was a fun time.
We were at the Art For Change Art Auction at the Wyndham Grand Hotel Monday Night. The proceeds benefit the PERSAD Center
I donated a photograph for the auction and bought one to bring home, too!
Mr. Billy Porter is a Pittsburgh Public Schools CAPA(Creative and Performing Arts) Alum!

I Looked Over at Lunch and Saw her Cheezits – Organized!
My wonderful student teacher Miss E (you are supposed to say Preservice these days) had her last day on Friday.
She is a very organized person and did a great job at our high school. The students are missing her this week. She is graduating from Penn State this weekend. (Congrats, Miss E!!)d
The other day we sat at lunch and I looked over and she had arranged her orange Cheezits in a pattern.
It looked like a Jeopardy board, a quilt, all line up so neatly.
Ms.L asked her if she HAD to do that in order to eat them and the answer is NO!
Of course, I asked if I could take a photograph of the design.
Art at lunch.
Carrick High School Art Show – Before and During
Pittsburgh Carrick High School Art Show Opening Monday May 5th. City County Building downtown Pittsburgh on Grant Ave. You can go there anytime this week and see the ceramics, jewelry, paintings, drawings and photography. It looks wonderful.
The art staff along with some volunteer assistants got together on Saturday from 8-2 and set it all up. This is the seventh year for the show.
Tonight at the opening I went upstairs and shot from the enclosed balcony (hence some reflection)
It was great to see so many students, families and teachers and even the Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Linda Lane came and selected an artwork to be awarded the Superintendent's Award.
And the elegant Miss Hicks came (she taught with us last year and is now at Pittsburgh Roosevelt Elementary)

Weekly Photo Challenge: Object
No, not- "I object."
But an item. A thing. You know I have so many objects in my files. I thought I'd focus on one, like the challenge said to do.
Weekly Challenge Creator Cheri Lucas Rowlands said- "Or you can get creative and find other ways to feature your object — the only requirement is it must be somewhere in your frame."
Here's a dusty antique stereoscope from my childhood and the dates on the photos? 1903! Wish I knew where it came from originally.
A bit before my time. I remember viewing the images with my brother David. HAve to find the piece that slides on the bar. It's around here somewhere.
One of the cards had Meadville, PA printed on the edge. The scene on top is Goats in Norway. The cowboy on the horse is in Kansas.
Here is the principle behind the stereoscopic images according to Wikipedia
"Two separate images are printed side-by-side. When viewed without a stereoscopic viewer the user is required to force his eyes either to cross, or to diverge, so that the two images appear to be three. Then as each eye sees a different image, the effect of depth is achieved in the central image of the three."

The Shop in East Liberty
It's been here for more than a year in the East Liberty neighborhood. Where have I been?
Driving back and forth from school each day, I've been passing this shop since it opened in September 2012.
Right there on Highland Avenue.
I know mornings when I drive by on the way to school it's dark and of course closed
but I thought I had some keen observational skills. Ha!
Guess not! Missed this shop until….
Saturday I was meeting my friend R for lunch at Pig and Chicken next door. (I photographed the Pig and Chicken one night in Feb 2012 before The Shop in East Liberty was established.)
I had the chance to go inside as I was a few minutes early for lunch. I met the shop owner Julia Reynolds, and purchased a unique, Made-in-USA , artist crafted item for a gift – so can't reveal what I bought yet cause they might see it on the blog today.
The store itself is a work of art and cool design. You can check out the "unique handcrafted gifts" here
A return trip is necessary to more photos so you can see some of the artists' work. You'll have to click the link to see the art!

Dedication of "Keeping Tabs – A Holocaust Sculpture"- Pittsburgh PA
Sunday afternoon was the official dedication of the Gary and Nancy Tuckfelt Keeping Tabs- A Holocaust Sculpture at the Community Day School at the corner of Beechwood Boulevard and Forward Ave. The sculpture is a maze in the shape of the Star of David, created with glass blocks which are filled with six million pop tabs which took almost five years to collect , each tab representing a human life lost in the Holocaust. Many people contributed time, money and effort to the creation of the sculpture and the beautiful surrounding park. Walking into the maze, one is struck by the magnitude of the horror of genocide, the number of victims is hard to fathom but the pop tabs in the glass blocks are a reminder of the millions killed.
The resident artist, Elena Hiatt Houlihan has been with this project since 2002. Pop tabs were being collected since 1996 and Mr. Walter the History Teacher at Community Day School had aquariums filled with them when Elena arrived to help the student teams design the sculpture. Their original artist statement was read by her at the dedication ceremony today.
Elena had been a resident artist at Greenfield Elementary when I was the art teacher there and I remember her talking about the ongoing work of this sculpture and then funding and other circumstances delayed the completion.
It was a beautiful Autumn afternoon and there were speeches and prayers and an 8th grader played the violin. A chill wind and shadows gave one a shudder and reminded those present of the significance of the memorial sculpture. Never Forget.
I went up earlier in the day to photograph the memorial sculpture before all the people arrived.
Receiving a standing ovation, Mr. Walter comes to the podium to speakArtist in Residence Elena Hiatt Houlihan and Social Studies Teacher Mr. Bill Walter who started the collection of the pop tabs when he was teaching the Holocaust to middle school students at Community Day School.
Article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette about the Keeping Tabs Memorial Sculpture Dedication, this time including Elena Hiatt Houlihan's name
This block will be used for educational presentations. I put a tab in and then asked the next woman if I might photograph her doing so and she agreed.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Infinite
When I was at the Mattress Factory for Professional Development last Tuesday, a colleague and I slipped into this room, part of the permanent exhibition.
And the name of the room is perfect for the challenge... Infinity Dots Mirrored Room. (click to see the museum's photo of the installation)
The black light gives you a strange sensation when you're in there. You can lose your equilibrium.
It's really cool. You should come to Pittsburgh and experience this mirrored, polka dotted space. The going into the actual room as compared to viewing an iPhone snap of it, is quite different. The limitations of technology.
The artist- YAYOI KUSAMA created the installation.
You can watch the short documentary about her and her artwork below.
Do You Even Think About What You See in the Trash?
Due to Penn Avenue closure, I ended up in a Bloomfield Alley and caught this trash scene with the iPhone as I waited to get out into the main road.
Do you think people get tired of looking at what's on their wall?
Chalk the Block – Easton Ohio
We were having a special afternoon at the Easton Mall, Laura, Anna and I. A beautiful autumn day.
And the artists were out in force, "chalking the block" as we headed to eat lunch. Chalk drawing dates back to prehistoric times.
I spoke with Mr. Jose Bastidas from Ecuador about his artwork and unfortunately didn't get to see the finished pieces.
Some farther along than others. There was a lot of excitement as the forty artists started to work.
You could vote for your favorite, cast a ballot. Awards are on Sunday the 29th.
Mark and Erika went out for an anniversary dinner in the same location Saturday night and saw the finished works.
Fascinating to watch the artists line out the drawings on the asphalt, the many boxes of chalk waiting to be used.
Love how his spheres "floated" above the pavement….
See below to see the finished work of the Wright Brothers

Weekly Photo Challenge: From Lines to Patterns
Sounds like a cinch, doesn't it? From lines to patterns? Organic might have been a better route. Nature.
After reading about this week's challenge and viewing some fellow bloggers posts, here's my gallery.
It was suggested to go with the "tiled mosaic gallery" so I thought I'd try it.
Strip District World Festival
I was going down to the Strip to work on an ongoing photography project I started.
Seemed like a good day to go as I was in town, no school on Sunday and the weather was perfect.
As soon as I neared the Strip, I saw an incredible amount of traffic backed up and some tent tops. Parked immediately instead of trying to get closer and walked the rest of the way. Here's what I saw
Strip District World Festival- A Community Event
I ate a delicious Baklava from Taverna 19, a new place with Greek food and dancing at night. (Right across from Primanti's) I had already eaten lunch at home. Who knew?

Steel Dragon Kung Fu members dance the Lion Dance
This note from Chris at Steel Dragon the dance is actually a LION DANCE
I would like to mention that actually we did a lion dance today. The MC confused the name of what we were doing. Our name (as you know) is Steel Dragon (or Gong Lung in Chinese). What we did was a lion dance. The actual name of the one we did today is "Eight Immortals Carry the Mountain to Fill the Eastern Sea", which is a story from a classic novel called the Eight Immortals Cross the Sea.
Incidentally, Dragons have many more people than lions (7-100 people vs 2 in a lion) and when you see the head, you can tell their different. If you want, you can check out the video we just posted which has clips from lion and dragons dances on it (plus I just edited so I love when people look at it :-) ) The link is on our website under videos.

"Sunoco" Painted by Jon Walker, Artist
Today the painting arrived. A few months ago, I heard from artist Jon Walker.
He asked if he could paint the Sunoco station photograph he saw on the blog.
I thought it was a cool request and appreciated his asking permission. His intention was to paint it, not to sell it to me.
I liked the look of it, the feel and although it was summer and no paycheck season until we returned to school, the gallery put the red dot on it "sold". It is a wonderful painting. I am thrilled to have it now.
Thanks Jon and the team in Savannah who helped get it to me. When I called again about being remiss in sending the $ I discovered the painting had migrated to another Savannah gallery- The Atlantic Beacon Gallery (go and like them on Facebook, too) where Jon Walker is the visiting artist for September. If you click the link you can see some of his other paintings.
They were most gracious to pack and ship it. Thank you thank you.

Another Dryer Lint Creature Found in the Compost Bowl
What do you find in your dryer lint? I asked- early June – in a blog post
Here is another one for the series. My family's lint seems more interesting than mine at home.

How One Looks at Dryer Lint
Last week I emptied the dryer at my son and DIL's. Thought I'd help out, fold a load.
When I cleaned out the lint trap, I found a tri-layered catch of fresh dryer lint. The striation helped out by the load of new white towels.
I put the dryer lint on the counter above the garbage and saw the face of a sock monkey.
"Erika", I said, "let me save the dryer lint and show the kids in the morning, It's striped and looks like a sock monkey."
Hmmmm. I decided to take a pic on the phone instead and throw it in the trash cause I didn't think she was seeing the face and she hadn't been to the dryer lint art show at the Duds 'N Suds Laundromat on Centre Ave here in Pittsburgh, a few years ago. I took some friends and it was a memorable and quirky event. The laundromat had that detergent, steamy scent. The people and scenes were all made from none other than DRYER LINT! You know how different loads offer different colors, frequently gray but sometimes a lovely hue, depending on the clothes or sheets.
My DIL had no idea there was a National Lint Project and that artist Cheryl Capezutti creates art from such a catch. You can go to her website and see her creations.
What I should have done is send the batch of lint to the artist Cheryl Capezutti and she could have created a winged creature or a tiny figure. She finds art in the everyday.
My lint screen here at home in Pittsburgh isn't as interesting a shape, either. Erika's is a half moon and mine is a flat, broad screen.

Conditioning for Climbers is the first book to help climbers of all ages and experience design and follow their own comprehensive, personalized exercise program. Part I covers the basics of physical conditioning, including tools for self assessment and goal-setting. Part II takes readers through warm-up and flexibility routines, entry-level strength training, weight-loss tips, and core-conditioning exercises. Part III covers climbing-specific conditioning, including exercises that develop power, endurance, balance, and stability. Part IV shows how to put together a customized conditioning program for bouldering, sport and multi-pitch climbing.
