We made camp at Prineville Reservoir State Park in the early evening, with enough sunlight left for us to do a bit of exploring. It was around the reservoir that we picked up a lifer lagomorph: about a dozen Black-tailed Jackrabbits spread out along the edge of a clearing. Huge animals, compared with their cuddly cousins the cottontails. And fast. Later, a group of them would pass in an instant through the campground, at but a fraction of the top speed (30-35 mph).
|Black-tailed Jackrabbit
The next morning we slipped out early to start on the long drive to John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. John Day has three units, spread far apart from one another, and each with its own unique natural attractions. It was to see the Painted Hills that we planned our holiday around this region of the state, checking off one of the 7 Wonders in the process. Although we'd seen a whole lot of landscape this year during our roadtrip across the country, there's just nothing that compares to the bizarre beauty of the Painted Hills.
Red and gold clays layered on top of one another, with flecks of black thrown in for good measure. It's an extraterrestrial-looking sight. "I can't believe this is in Oregon," we'd say for the hundredth time. We could barely keep in mind that it was on Planet Earth. It was here, too, that we found a striking female Snakeweed Grasshopper, one of the coolest, most boldly patterned grasshoppers we've seen anywhere.
|Snakeweed Grasshopper
From here we passed on to another of John Day's units: Sheep Rock. While there wasn't much birding to do at the Painted Hills, we set ourselves a couple of target species at Sheep Rock, being in range for both Rock and Canyon Wrens. The view here wasn't colorful like at the Painted Hills, but it was extraordinary nonetheless, and decidedly eerie. The hike through the steep greenish-blue claystone gave the impression of wandering through the Forbidden Zone, stranded on the Planet of the Apes.
Along the Blue Basin trail was some tricky uphill climbing. To get as high up as we managed was worth it just for the views, although it was pretty quiet by that time in the afternoon. After unsuccessfully straining to identify a distant eagle we climbed back down to try a more level path, right through the claystone formations. A hyperactive Rock Wren bobbed and fed and jumped around near a burrow entrance, dug or molded into the clay. It seemed such a desolate place to make a living, but there are much worse, to be sure.
On the drive back to Prineville, just a few miles outside of the campsite, a flash of sky blue alongside the road convinced me to pull over. We found ourselves at the entrance to an RV park of all places, where had had some of the best birds of the day. A flurry of Mountain Bluebirds mixed in with equal numbers of Cassin's Finches represented some damn fine mountain birding, which is precisely what we'd wanted.
|Mountain Bluebird
|Common Ravens were much more common in the mountains than they are west of the Cascades
|These Ravens were not on speaking terms
We left nice and early the next morning, but not before we spotted another Rock Wren on the way out of the campground. This one was much more cooperative than the one at John Day, but like the one a day earlier, mostly kept near the entrance to a little hideaway in the rocks.
|Rock Wren
|Lark Sparrow
And in keeping with the rock theme of the post, we made one last stop before returning to Sisters, where we began and ended our adventure. Smith Rock State Park was the second of the great Wonders of Oregon this trip. Renowned as a rock-climbing playground for adrenaline junkies, it also turns up White-throated Swifts (as it did for us), Black-billed Magpies, and some of the most acrobatic Canada Geese we've ever seen -- the place inspires daredevilry in the even most unlikely creatures.
|Black-billed Magpie
|Smith Rock State Park
Wherever we looked we would find people dotted along the tops of all these massive rock formations, having pulled themselves up by means entirely beyond my understanding. Our understanding was further stretched when we encountered our first lizard since moving here ("I can't believe this is in Oregon"). West of the Cascades, where we live, it's a very, very different place from the desert country we found ourselves in now, and lizards were just not on our radar.
|Western Fence Lizard?
One final critter I'll mention is a would-be hitchhiker that tried to abscond in Maureen's hat. She had it in her hands for a minute and a tiger moth flew in. Tiger moths are a beautiful group, and I've been wanting to see one since I started my moth kick last year. What I didn't realize is how difficult the group can be to identify: I posted this one on BugGuide.net for ID help three different species were suggested.
|Grammia sp.
This trip gave us a sense for how much bigger Oregon is than you might suspect from looking at a map. There's more to see and do here than we even guessed than when we first moved out here, and this adventure over the mountains has got us wondering what we'll find the next time we go exploring!

Reno Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center
Category: InstitutionalLocation: Reno, NV Size: 297,000 sq. ft.Masonry Used: 212K Emperor 4x4x16, 4x4x16 3slots, 42K Atlas 8x4x16 structural brick, and Mod. paver.Submitted by: Interstate Brick
The large oversized 4x16 faced veneer and structural brick are a perfect match for large scale building. A uniques percentage of red and black brick were blended together to add interest, character and personality to large masses of wall. Small brick get lost in a building and lose their uniqueness. A mason contractor can lay almost twice the square footage of Emperor brick in a day compared to modular brick consequently Emperor brick cost less to install and reduce the time a mason is on the job. Atlas brick became the perfect addition to the site as retaining walls providing aesthetics as well as structure thereby eliminating the added cost of veneer and concrete retaining walls. The large overhead arches took advantage of the strength and beauty of the reinforced Atlas brick as the form and the strength of the structure. The structural arches used a 3 slotted unit adding further detail and interest while eliminating costs.
This building is adjacent to the Crowley Student Union Building which is also constructed out of these same brick colors which increases the magnitude and strength of the campus.

Try as they might, home brewers cannot transform barley and hops into bubbly craft brews with the flick of a switch or a hearty whistle. For tools, equipment, and advice, brewers congregate at the Savannah Home Brew Shop, where they can sniff and sample specialty grains, yeast, and malts from Crosby & Baker. Students stock up on shiny new brewing equipment from Foxx while scouring available brewing books and magazines for the up-to-date trends and tips. The staff at Savannah Home Brew Shop can guide novices through their first fermented steps with home-brewing kits, as well as starter kits and supplies for wine makers. Seasoned brewers load up on brand-name liquid or dry yeasts, and hoist bulk bags of dry grain on their shoulders as they try to outrun the sprightly Saint Paulie girl that just stole their stein.

Race to close roads Downtown and elsewhere on Sunday
The first running of the EQT Pittsburgh 10 Miler footrace will close streets in Downtown Pittsburgh and surrounding neighborhoods on Sunday. The race starts at Station Square and continues through the West End, North Shore, Strip District and Lawrenceville before returning to Downtown via Liberty Avenue. The course includes four bridges: West End, Andy Warhol, Rachel Carson and 16th Street. The entire course will close at 8 p.m. West End streets reopen by 9:30, North Side 10:30 and the rest of the course by noon. More information can be had here.
The rationale for raising transportation taxes and fees in Pennsylvania is that they haven't been increased since 1997 and inflation has eaten away at the revenue they generate. But some who support these inflationary adjustments are not on board with raising the threshold for projects requiring union-level prevailing wages. That $25,000 threshold hasn't changed since 1961. So adjusting for inflation is good, except when it's not.
There's a good chance that the much-debated transportation funding bill will be derailed if unions and pro-union legislators don't give a little. Rural lawmakers who are loath to increase funding for public transit need something to take back to their constituents, and raising the wage threshold could enable boroughs and townships to save money on smaller projects.
Sure, it would be nice if such side issues could be kept separate and the transportation bill voted up or down on its merits, political considerations aside. World peace would be nice, too.
More on transportation funding, from today's Post-Gazette, here and here. The Post-Gazette's editorial from earlier this week is here.
From the emailbox:
Getting America to Work, a nationwide coalition advocating for federal investment in the nation's bus and rail transit systems, is urging Congress to stop scheduled cuts to the tax-free benefit for commuters using public transportation to get to work.
Current law allows workers and employers to pay up to $245 in monthly transit costs with tax-exempt dollars. This is the same maximum tax-free amount allowed for a similar benefit for those who drive to work and pay for parking. However, on January 1, the transit benefit maximum is scheduled to be cut almost in half, to $125 per month, while the parking benefit will remain at a maximum of $245.
"Keeping parity between commuter benefits for transit and parking is nonpartisan, common sense policy," said Joe Costello, executive director of the Northeastern Illinois Regional Transportation Authority and chairman of Getting America to Work. "Transit benefits encourage more workers to use public transportation, reducing traffic congestion, the demand for gasoline and air pollution. I urge Congress to preserve transit-parking benefit parity."
The Squirrel Hill Tunnels will be open for the weekend. Overnight lane closures will be lifted by 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday.
There will be several traffic stoppages on the Parkway East from midnight Friday to 2 a.m. Saturday between Squirrel Hill and Edgewood-Swissvale during erection of an overhead sign. Traffic in both directions will be stopped for up to 15 minutes at a time.
Just a reminder that the Liberty Tunnels close at 8 p.m. every day except Sunday, reopening by 5 a.m.
Red Line service may be delayed from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. today during the Beechview Halloween parade.
Work on a temporary roadway at Butler Street and One Wild Place in Highland Park was to begin today. Crews are removing the traffic island and the eastbound right-turn ramp from Butler Street to One Wild Place to prepare to build the temporary roadway. Drivers will make the right turn at the traffic signal. The work is part of the Heths Run Bridge replacement project and is designed to keep traffic flowing when the bridge is shut down. The temporary roadway through the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium parking lot will be for cars and light trucks.
The bridge that carries Prestley Road over Chartiers Creek in Collier will open to unrestricted traffic today. The project to replace the bridge deck and bearings, paint and make roadway improvements began in early March. Substructure painting will continue through November but will not affect traffic. About 6,000 vehicles per day use the road.
Overnight lane closures on Route 51 in Overbrook near the Route 88 intersection will occur tonight and on weeknights through Nov. 9. The restrictions are possible after 7 p.m. daily between Ivyglen and Maytide streets during manhole and pipe installation. Work will conclude by 6 a.m., except on Saturdays, when it will conclude by 10 a.m.
Northbound and southbound detours at the construction project on Route 837 at the Route 51 interchange in West Elizabeth will continue through Nov. 22.
Repairs to the Hulton Bridge will continue to cause alternating one-way traffic on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. through Nov. 8.
Bridges need to be washed, and PennDOT will be redding up the 40th Street Bridge across the Allegheny River starting Friday. Lane closures are possible weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. through Nov. 15. Bridge washing also will cause lane closures on the eastbound Boulevard of the Allies and on Forbes Avenue in the area of the Birmingham Bridge from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays through next Wednesday.

Authentically Italian
Bella's feels – and tastes – like Italy should
Short Pump is known for its share of chain restaurants and strip malls, but diners looking for something more distinct can certainly find it without heading downtown or to nearby Charlottesville.
In fact, local husband-and-wife restaurateurs Valeria Bisenti and Doug Muir brought a taste of Charlottesville (and Italy) to Short Pump when they took a chance and opened Bella's second location in the same shopping strip as Wal-Mart and Peter Chang China Cafe. (Bella's original location is on Main Street in downtown Charlottesville.)
For a local Italian restaurant, Bella's is as "Mom and Pop" as its gets. Valeria is Mom, and Doug is Pop. Since its opening about six months ago, diners have been eating rich comfort foods and drinking Italian wines. > Read more.

We building a static dll which is consuming a WCF services (has a service reference to a WCF service).
The static dll has local static variables which critical for the process.
The dll will be consumed by more then one type of GUI.
