Rhododendron hybrid 'PJM'
Evergreen, Shrubs
There are hundreds of species and thousands of varieties of rhododendrons. Most horticultural selections are vibrantly flowering shrubs, but the group includes trees and ground covers as well. Botanists have arranged species into series and subseries; one of these series includes the azaleas. With careful selection, gardeners in all climates—even the coldest, hottest, and driest ones—can find ways to grow certain members of this genus (in containers or as houseplants, if need be).
Rhododendrons and deciduous azaleas generally do best in Zones 4–6, 15–17, and 32–42, although there are many exceptions. Evergreen azaleas, however, are grown extensively much farther south—in the deep South, Southern California, and Hawaii, for example. But see variety listings for specifics.
Rhododendrons and azaleas need more air in the root zone than almost all other garden plants, but they also require a constant supply of moisture. Without excellent drainage, they can succumb to root rot. Soils rich in organic matter have the desired qualities; if your soil is deficient, amend it liberally with organic material.
In clay or alkaline soil, planting in a raised bed is the simplest way to give these plants the conditions they need. The finished bed should be 1–2 ft. above original soil level. Mix a generous amount of organic material into the top foot of native soil; then fill bed above it with a mixture of 50 percent organic matter, 30 percent native soil, 20 percent sand. This soil mix will be well aerated but moisture retentive and will permit alkaline salts to leach through. Plant azaleas and rhododendrons with top of root ball slightly above soil level.
Plants are surface rooters and benefit from a mulch such as pine needles, oak leaves, or wood by-products (for example, redwood or fir bark or chips). Never cultivate around these plants.
Sun tolerance of azaleas and rhododendrons differs by species and variety. Too much sun causes leaf centers to bleach or burn, though most of these plants can take full sun in cool-summer areas. Ideal location is in filtered shade beneath tall trees; east and north sides of house or fence are next best. Too dense shade results in lanky plants that bloom sparsely. In areas where dissolved salts accumulate, periodically leach the planting by watering heavily—enough to drain through the soil two or three times. If leaves turn yellow while veins remain green, plants have iron chlorosis; apply iron chelates to soil or spray foliage with iron solution.
Insects and diseases seldom cause well-grown plants much harm. Root weevils are the main problem, especially in the Pacific Northwest. Damage by root weevil adults, which notch leaves, is usually minor, but their larvae can girdle roots. A number of pesticides that range from acephate to pyrethrins can help in serious infestations.
During recent years, leaf mildew has become a problem on some varieties of rhododendron. If you want to grow a variety that is susceptible, plant it in a sunny spot that gets plenty of air circulation. The best prevention, however, is to plant resistant varieties. Both wind and soil salts burn leaf edges; windburn shows up most often on new foliage, salt burn on older leaves. Late frosts often cause deformed leaves.
Pruning rhododendrons is simple; follow these general guidelines. Tip-pinch young plants to make them bushy; prune older, leggy plants to restore shape by cutting back to a side branch, leaf whorl, or cluster of latent buds. Do any extensive pruning in late winter or early spring (wait until danger of frost is past in colder areas). Pruning at this time will sacrifice some flower buds, but the plant's energies will be diverted to latent growth buds, which will then be ready to push out their new growth early in the growing season. (Several varieties will not produce new growth from latent buds.) You can do some shaping while plants are in bloom, using cut branches in arrangements. To prevent seed formation, which can reduce next year's bloom, clip or break off spent flower trusses, taking care not to damage growth buds at base of each truss.
Evergreen azaleas are dense, usually shapely plants; heading back the occasional wayward branch restores symmetry. To keep bushes compact, tip-pinch frequently, starting after flowering ends and continuing until July.
Prune deciduous azaleas while they are dormant and leafless (in cold climates,wait until frost danger is past). You don't have to prune azaleas as carefully as you do rhododendrons—the leaves are fairly evenly spaced along the branches,with a bud at base of each leaf, so new growth will sprout from almost anywhere you cut (in either bare or leafy wood). Azaleas can even be sheared into formal hedges.'PJM'

For 10-man, if you don't feel like getting the FR gear, and you have a pally/druid/shaman in your raid, consider getting these enchants in addition to their resist auras if you are still struggling:
Arcanum of the Frosty Soul
Enchant Cloak - Superior Frost Resistance - dropped by Damned Apothecary in Icecrown
I recommend the cloak enchant for healers just because, unless you really want that haste rating enchant.
My guild was having some problems with this fight, so we said "screw it" and did it with four healers. We all had about 250+ frost resist and through the fight the healers were not close to oom'ing out and it was a smooth kill. Took a while, though, but we did it.

"Exotic" Travel in Helsinki
If you are a savvy traveler and you know that there is more to Europe than London, Paris and Rome why not including one of the more exotic European capitals in your next trip in Europe? Helsinki – the capital of Finland - will definitely have a top ranking on this list.
There is a lot to explore although the city is only a fraction of the size of Paris or Berlin. Luckily most of Helsinki's people speak English very well otherwise you would have problems. Unlike a trip to France or Germany you will not be able to pick up a few catchy phrases from a guide book during your flight time. Street names and words with seven "i"s will make you look into your guidebook or on the map the same number of times before you memorize the words. This makes a taxi ride as exotic as in Japan so you better point on the map or on the street name in a book. Otherwise it may happen you land in a totally different neighbourhood. Speaking of taxis: the basic starting fare when you board a taxi at Helsinki's Vantaa airport is EUR 6.80 (and you are not gone any mile for this)…
The number of typical sightseeing targets (think: mum is standing with hanging arms in front of Eiffel Tower) in Helsinki is not high. That does not mean you cannot spend 4 or 5 days for a visit. It's more about the full picture of Helsinki and Finland: what are the people like, what are their habits, what is the fashion, what are they interested in, where do they go for their weekend, what is the food like…
Hotel Kämp
So while you visit you may include classic spots like the Senate Square with its neo-classical Cathedral; Esplanade Park with elegant shops and the posh Hotel Kämp; the "Rock" church with modern architecture, quarried out of the natural bedrock with excellent acoustics for concerts; the orthodox church with its golden cupolas showing the Russian impact of former times.
During a summer trip you can enjoy long days and a 20 minute ferry ride to Suomenlinna, an island with a maritime fortress and beautiful views of other sides of the city at the sea.
If you travel in winter time you should not miss a visit to your hotel's sauna (you do not need to stay in a spa hotel to have that) or much better: to Yrjönkatu, an amazingly restored swimming hall from the 1920s.
A cheap and fun way to see different neighbourhoods is to jump on a tram. One of the most interesting neighbourhoods you will see then is the Design District with many shops, galleries, design hotel Klaus K and the Design Forum Finland showing most of the country's big names in design and art. You will find all the classic top-class brands and trend-setting young designers for objects and furniture.
But one of my favourite things to do in Helsinki is: checking out restaurants ! I do not speak of traditional so-called-typical Finnish food like elk. Not that it's bad but admit it: it is rather to show off next time when your friends compare what exotic meat everybody ate on his trips than to enjoy a fantastic dinner. There has been a development in Helsinki's restaurant scene that brings very creative chefs from all around the world into this city's kitchens. The food is very fresh and of high quality, the meals are creative and restaurants offer various atmospheres. Try "Sasso", a Tuscan restaurant with fantastic food and an exceptional wine list. The service is outstanding and you can dare to ask for details of a wine and you will get the full story including who created the label on the bottle. Similar situation at "Fishmarket" , situated below "Sasso" in the same building and has the same owner but different approach and style. Despite its location in a cellar it is very bright and crisp in style. The fish is a well. Both restaurants can be found at the end of Esplanade street towards the port.
Another favourite is "Mecca", a cool lounge/club goes restaurant goes club. The atmosphere is as you would expect it from a stylish club. Regular guests match this style – without the attitude you know from New York or Paris.
For another Mediterranean top restaurant I recommend "La Cucina"
with Catalonian and Basque cuisine. Located at the Palace Hotel's second floor directly at the port. The restaurant welcomes guests with dark black and red design, stylish, modern but cozy. They offer pintxos (tapas) and main dishes of great variety and combinations. Fantastic dark blood coloured red match perfectly. I had my best deserts at this restaurant (chocolate varieties with sea salt) and would not fly Helsinki if I knew this restaurant was closed during that time (almost…).
La Cucina
I did not expect the great food and sophisticated interest for architecture and design before I came to Helsinki for the first time. Be surprised if you are going.

Keeping your furry feline looking and feeling great has never been easier thanks to the easy to use, nutrient packed power of Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamins Plus Powders and Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamin Bite Soft Chews!
Can your cat benefit from Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamins?
Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamins Plus are some of the best pet "health insurance" money can buy, providing a full spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals. Available in either a convenient powder or a delicious soft chew, these amazingly easy to use supplements are packed with a powerful daily dose of vitamins and minerals as well as digestive enzymes to support your cat's ability to properly absorb the nutrients present in their food.
Why Supplement?
Even the best canned and dry foods lose most of their nutrients during processing, leaving only "adequate" amounts for your cat. Because "adequate" isn't sufficient for optimal health, we designed Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamins Plus powders and soft chews so you can conveniently and safely support your cat's optimal health. Even home cooked foods and raw diets can lack essential vitamins and minerals. Cats often need extra support for the innumerable effects of stress, aging, illness, vaccinations, medications, and environmental toxins.
Our comprehensive, balanced formula has a full spectrum of ingredients, offering your cat the support he needs for peak health and performance throughout his life, reducing your veterinarian visits and pet health costs! Regular vitamin supplementation will maintain your cat's skin & coat, joints, cardiovascular system, immune system, digestive system, nervous system, urinary system, endocrine system, metabolic functions and blood composition. That's wholistic health from wet nose to fuzzy tail!
Our unique formula also includes New Zealand green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus). This superfood not only has a savory aroma cats love, it's also a rich source of powerful natural compounds, including glycosaminoglycans, a unique carbohydrate with joint supporting chondroitin and hyaluronic acid. This nourishing superfood also delivers Omega-3 fatty acids and amino acids to support cellular health, glycoproteins for bladder system maintenance, and many other powerful properties!
Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamins come in two unique, easy to administer dosage types. For cats that love a tasty treat, Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Vitamine Bites offer a delicious chicken flavor in an irresistible soft chew format. Each bag contains 120 soft chews, enough for a full month for an average size feline. Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Feline Daily Vitamins Plus Powder comes in a highly palatable powder that can be sprinkled right on your cats's food. Each tub contains over 60 scoops of powder. Try our 100% guaranteed product and let your cat experience all of these amazing benefits packed into a tasty daily "treat" that cats love.
Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Vitamin Feline Supplement
Skin and Coat
Our formula is packed with Omega-3 essential fatty acids known for their amazing ability to support a healthy skin and coat.
Digestive System

Probiotics are living, healthy bacteria that support bowel regularity, the immune system and more.

In addition to green-lipped mussel extract for joint health, our powders contain MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), an inert sulfur chemical that supports healthy inflammation response.
Immune System
These powders are designed with the most supportive immune maintenance substances, including bioflavonoids, selenium, chlorophyll, omega-3s, l-lysine and more.
With ample amounts of Vitamin D and Calcium, our formulas include a smart balance of each nutrient to maintain healthy teeth and bones.

Great Supplement for Raw Feeding
By Jess
from Tallahassee, FL
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Only Natural Pet Ultimate Daily Vitamins Plus Feline:
I use these vitamins to supplement a raw diet for my four cats, aged between 2 and 8 years old. I used to feed the powder and mix it in with their food for the day, but I found the soft chews more effective and easier to deal with. Three of the cats eat them up right away (they see them as treats I think), but one of them refuses to eat it, I usually attempt to hide it in her food or just continue to use the powdered version with her. For me, these just give me a peace of mind that they are getting all the nutrition they need to stay healthy, as my franken-prey feeding is not perfect, and 3/4 of the cats love them.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Feline Vitamins
By Lapis
from Brooklyn, NY
I've been adding all kinds of supplements to my 10-year old Siberian cat's diet since he was a kitten. He is also on a raw-food diet. Between these two factors, I have never experienced any health issues with my cat besides occasional hairballs. I think a healthy well-balanced diet, which includes supplements, is the key. And a multi-vitamin seems like an all-around solution that incorporates multiple nutrients which target every area of the body.
Not sure this is helping
By mltcal
from Hayward, CA
This is a new product for me and I am not sure that I am seeing any improvement in my cats. I am not seeing anything negative either. I may try this at another time when the cats are not taking any additional supplements to see how it works by itself.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great Promo but my cat doesn't like it.
By EY
from Schertz, TX
This seems to be good product. Each plastic container came foil-sealed under cap. My older cat is very finicky and he just doesn't like this product and refuses to eat his canned foods with this in it. Another thing with him is he eats small portions throughout the day. The 1 tsp scoop portion is just too much all at once. I try to use less of it in more of the wet food and sometimes he would eat some. He just doesn't like the smell and/or the taste. Perhaps, if the product could have some added 'special something' that could entice finicky older cats to eat it, then this would be great supplements for them. Althought, this doesn't work out for me & my cat, you should still give your cat a try of this product.

Supplement for Older or Ageing Cats
By Tomez
from Omaha, NE
I have 2 Cats 12 and 13 years of age that have lost weight because of their age so I am putting this supplement in their food. They love the smell of it and are ready to eat as soon as I put it done for them, which is great. Still waiting to see if it will put some weight back on them, my problem is keeping my younger cats out of it because they like the smell and taste of it also.
No More Vomiting
By PJWhiz
from Carlsbad, CA
My cat vomited frequently for years until I discovered this product. The nice thing about it is that it contains a probiotic as well as vitamins. Now he vomits very seldom. I've even begun only giving it to him every other feeding.

Balanced Vitamin Supplement for cats
By clouh09
from Harrisburg PA
I started making my own cat food with a vet formulated recipe which you had to buy all the vitamins seperately and add them to the chicken. I got tired of all the bottles and started using another company's vitamin powder that added alot of fruit veggie extracts ( that cats do NOT eat in the wild) and no omega 3 or CoQ10. I checked on the web and found this one and started using it. My cats took to it the same day. I have 2 VERY HEALTHY and ACTIVE cats!

Best Cat Vitamins yet&in different form
By Jean
from Boston, MA
This is the best older cat vitamin that I have purchased for my special orange cat. It comes in green powder form with a scoop. Just looking at the green powder, you can tell this is high quality nutrition very comparable to organic green powdwer containing spirulina for humans. You add half a scoop in the mornings and evenings to cat's tuna and mix well with a spoon. My cat finds it very tasty. Best of all his fur coat and energy levels have never been better.

I suddenly have a 13yr old kitten!!!
By Maricris
from Manila, Philippines
I usually prepare the entire scoop in one serving (1 tsp for my senior cat) because she tends to not finish the second serving. I haven't tried diluting this for a suspension intake, but I reckon it wouldn't be difficult anyway.This is so great for my cat because she became more active and is now interacting with the people in the house whereas she used to just sleep almost the entire day! Her medical intake for glucosamine is also no longer needed for her osteoarthritis problem. It was solved by this daily supplement.Her coat became softer, also thicker and less shedding. Her eyes became brighter and she's more energetic. She has enthusiasm to play again.I so love this product that I have just setup a recurring order for this, even when I'm ordering from the Philippines!
Cats like it and look healthier
By Ricky
from Los Angeles, CA
The calico cat had a dull coat. I have noticed that since she's been fed wet food mixed with the powder her coat has turned shiny and she doesn't shed as much hair as before. My other kitty, a recent shelter rescue with health problems, seems to be thriving on this stuff. I am also impressed about the ingredients list, it really covers a whole gamut of nutrition needs.

Creating the perfect environment for your living room is manageable with proper lighting. Many family gatherings and important occasions occur in the living room, which is why lighting plays such an important role. The lighting presents perhaps the most demanding of design challenges. The need to understand your family's way of life is as important as understanding the architectural space. Outside of its effect on the ability to perform different tasks, Lighting can be used to invoke different moods such as calm or excitement and must be sympathetically integrated into your particular lifestyle.
The key technique to help us achieve that prefect balance and atmosphere in the living room is to provide multiple sources of light and by layering them. Points of interest such as artwork, should be illuminated with low voltage accent lighting, which are aimed at the perimeter of the room or low voltage track rail or cable lighting which provide a lot of flexibility. Task areas which include: reading, wet bars, or hobby tables require adequate illumination that is provided by floor lamps, spot lamps, monopoint lights, recessed lighting, cable and track lighting or pendant lighting which can all help accentuate these task areas.
Other sources of light that can be used not only for their lighting output but also as decoration are: chandeliers, pendant lights, wall sconces, cable, rail and track lighting systems and up lighting of indoor plants which brings drama and interest to the space.
Maintaining balanced lighting in the room is very important and we achieve that by reducing the contrast between the different parts of the room and by using dimmer switches and scene control units. These help achieve the ability to create unlimited lighting situations that provide the exact type of lighting combinations for any personal or social need.
After illuminating the living room correctly, we can truly notice a big change in the space. The room comes to live! Colors are brighter, art is focused and accentuated, our visual performance increases and the most important: we feel happier and better.

|Star Trek: Mr Scott's Guide to the Enterprise
|Writers :
|Shane Johnson
|Published :
|Publisher :
|Titan Books
|Rating :
|Editions :
|There is a single edition.
An in depth look at the Enterprise-A purportedly written by the great man himself, Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise is an interesting and enjoyable look at the shortest serving Enterprise of them all. We are treated to dozens of blueprints, deck plans and photographs, along with artist's sketches. There's a tounge in cheek aspect to some of it - we get artists renderings of different takes on a given part of the ship presented as if the Starfleet engineers were proposing different hardware configurations.
Alas, the book is a little lacking in accuracy. Johnson didn't have the advantage that Sternbach and Okuda had of working for the show, so he had to extrapolate some of the technology. Some of this has become badly dated - he fits the Enterprise-A with a transwarp drive, which made sense at the time of Star Trek III/IV but doesn't now.
Despite the flaws, though, this is still an entertaining read. Not to be on the "must have" list, but these are available very cheap nowdays and are well worth having..

On Deck
Ben Rubin's office is just a few yards from the pristine greens and fairways of Valhalla Golf Club, but these days, you won't find the Senior PGA Championship director outside working on his short game.
"People think we play a lot of golf. We don't play much golf. It's funny that people think that," said Rubin, 32. "It's event management. You're operating an event with a lot of different details and a lot of different people and logistics to coordinate."
Rubin, who oversee ticket sales, hospitality, marketing, advertising, promotions, public relations, operations and volunteer administration for the 72nd Senior PGA Championship, has spent the last two years working on the tournament, which will be held May 24-29 at Valhalla.
"It's a field of 156 players. It's the strongest field in senior golf," Rubin said. "The Senior PGA leaderboard has more recognizable names than the PGA leaderboard."
Top players set to play include Paul Azinger, Fred Couples, Hale Irwin, Corey Pavin, Tom Lehman, Mark Calcavecchia and Mark Brooks. Local favorites Kenny Perry, Fuzzy Zoeller, Russ Cochran and Ted Schulz also will tee it up.
But Rubin said the tournament is about more than great golf.
"It's a social environment that everyone of all interests and ages can enjoy," he said. "Public parking is just across the street, so it's easy to get to. They can come out here for a day or for multiple days. It's a beautiful environment. The golf could be secondary in someone's interests."
Presenting sponsor KitchenAid will have cooking demonstrations with celebrity chefs throughout the week, and children 17 years and younger get in free with a ticketed adult (up to four children will be admitted per ticketed guest).
"We're expecting between 60,000 to 80,000 people here for the whole week with the largest quantity of spectators over the weekend," Rubin said.
Practice rounds are Tuesday and Wednesday and championship rounds will be played Thursday through Sunday. Single day tickets start at $40.
Rubin said the PGA continues to host major championships in Louisville because the city shows strong support for tournaments.
"This is an excellent market for golf tournaments. It's not a huge metropolis where you get lost in the shadows of Major League Baseball or the NBA," he said. "Here you're the main event.
"The people here get it. They put the red carpet out to allow us to succeed the best we can because all that does is make Louisville and Kentucky look good."
Rubin, who is a native of New Bedford, Mass., began working for the PGA in 2000 after interning with the organization and graduating from the University of Massachusetts with a bachelor's degree in sport management.
"My background when I first started with the PGA was in operations," he said. "From 2006 to 2008 I worked on the Ryder Cup, and I'll be the championship director for the 2014 PGA Championship" at Valhalla.
The 2008 Ryder Cup at Valhalla, where Rubin served as director of operations, holds a special place in his memories.
"I was right there on the 17th hole when the United States won the Ryder Cup," he said. "When you work so hard and put so much energy into an event like that and it all comes together and at the end the United States wins – there's so much emotion. The excitement kept increasing and increasing, and winning was the climax of the entire experience."
Rubin has worked on eight championships and has spent time stationed in Rochester, N.Y., and Oklahoma City in his time with the PGA
"It's a job that matches my personality and my interests," he said. "I have a lot of passion for it. I get up every day excited to come to work and eager to keep working on this championship."
Even if that means not playing as much golf as he would like. (Rubin has a 10 handicap.)
"You get so busy with the event that it's hard to play, but we do work in the golf business, so even our CEO has told us that he thinks it's important that we're out there playing golf," he said.
And Valhalla is a tough course for golfers of all abilities.
"It will definitely pose a lot of challenges to the professionals," he said. "It's a great test of golf. It will definitely challenge the best senior golfers in the world to play their best to win this championship."
Ironically, Valhalla's designer, Jack Nicklaus, is also who Rubin considers to be the best golfer of all time.
"A professional golfer's career is measured by major championships, and he's won the most majors," he said. "He is not only a great professional golfer, but he is a great ambassador of the game. He does a lot of great things to promote golf around the world."
In addition to his 18 majors, Nicklaus won the Senior PGA Championship in 1991, hoisting the silver Alfred S. Bourne trophy, which has taken on a personality of his own recently.
Alfred has his own Twitter feed and has been making appearances all over Louisville.
"The greatest players in all of golf have held that trophy – Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Sam Snead, Tom Watson – they're all defending champions. It's fun to be able to take Alfred around and let people take pictures with him. It just adds another element to the championship."

Digital Media Blog
discussing all things digital @ Amgueddfa Cymru.
Brought to you by the digital media team: Dafydd, Chris, Dave, Kay, Sara, Rhodri and Graham.
April 2007
Brooklyn Museum
Yesterday's visit to the Brooklyn Museum gave us much food for thought. We met with Nicole, who works within the exhibition department. They are finding effective ways of interpreting the collections without affecting the integrity of the exhibition. Projects like 'Graffiti' have been very popular within the community, as they have been incorporating social networking tools like Flickr.
Policing the comments must be quite hard work, but ultimately worth it. The online community they have built up is an important contact point for the Museum, and they are careful not to abuse this trust with too much marketing.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
Today we met with Matt from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, who is the General Manager of the website. It was a very insightful meeting, and I think Chris and I gained much from speaking with him. Apart from discussing databases and user tagging, we also talked about the difficulties of developing web projects in a museum. It was quite refreshing to see that even one of the largest museums in the USA has some similar issues to us!
After the meeting we went for a wander round the vast museum and looked at one of the few interactives they have (a labelling system). The museum has a huge collection, with some very famous works of art on display (that even I recognised!).
Museums in New York
Yesterday I visited New York's National Museum of the American Indian, which is also a Smithsonian Institute museum. On entering the building the first thing that strikes you is the Rotunda (and oval room)which has the exhibitions leading off it. You are also welcomed by a flash-based (I think) display letting you know what exhibitions are available and what events are coming up.
The exhibits were very good, and well designed. I especially enjoyed the contemporary 'Off the Wall' exhibition, which had a slick video presentation by Erica Lord. They also had contemplation areas between exhibitions, which is a nice touch.
I also went to the Museum of Jewish Heritage, where the original core exhibition (built 1997) is still very engaging. Though I felt there was a lot to digest, the artifacts are fascinating and the videos give a lot of very interesting oral history.
Today I visited the American Museum of Natural History, which is apparently the world's largest museum of it's kind. There was plenty to see and do there, even though any of the galleries were off-limits. I particularly liked the Hall of Planet Earth, and the Hall of Biodiversity which provided plenty of audio visual things for me to look at - and some effective ways of using touchscreens.
Washington, D.C.
As we were only a day in Washington, we decided to make the most of it. We visited 3 museums, which was quite a task - especially considering the size of them!
Our first visit was to the National Air and Space Museum, which housed a lot of airplanes that have been built over the ages. As well as that, they had a lot of space exhibits, where you can appreciate the scale of the shuttles from just seeing the nozzle from a rocket! Even though the place was extremely busy, you could find your way through the crowds easily enough due to the scale of the place. Interactives were scattered about the place, though many were ageing computers and screens. Some of them were in need of a refresh.
Next we went to the National Museum of the American Indian. Opened in 2004, this stunning museum seemed to have it all - engaging exhibits, interesting architecture and a very nice cafe! We would have spent more time there if possible. There were some consoles that had a similar labelling system to that I developed in Oriel 1, though I have to admit these were better executed. I'm not sure whether they accessed content dynamically though.
Finally we went to the National American Art Museum & National Portrait Gallery, and again we were short on time. But before it closed we managed to see some very impressive works of art, and we could take photos of the permanent collections. Though I didn't see any interactives in the gallery, I know that they're doing some good stuff online.
More in Minneapolis and St Paul
Yesterday we visited a couple of great museums in the metro area. First we went to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts (MIA). We had a very insightful meeting with Willy Lee, the webmaster at MIA. He told us some of the great ideas he has to incorporate social networking into MIA's website. Things like user tagging, which allows the users to tag objects to help with searches. They are ahead of us in getting their collections online, but they don't have as complicated a database structure as we do at National Museum Wales. The MIA is well worth a visit - online for their resources, and physically for the incredible artworks they have in their collections.
We also took the time to cram in a visit to the Science Museum of Minnesota in St Paul, which was a mix of Techniquest and the Science Museum (UK). They had a lot of fun interactives that kept Chris and I occupied for hours, using various technologies from video streams to PCs and microscopes! They also had some very nice high resolution screens, which gave me some digital signage ideas. I hope I can get in touch with one of their staff, as I'd be interested to see what kind of resources they have to support their extensive interactive setup.
Walker Art Center, Minneapolis
We had a very successful day today. We met up with Nate and Brent from the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It's good to meet with people similar to us - they have built most of their interactive installations and web projects in house. Many museums and galleries in the USA outsource much of their work, at least that's the impression I got from the Museums and the Web conference.
The Walker Arts team have gained a reputation for blogging, as they were one of the early adopters of the format. It was a learning curve for them - they intended to roll it out across departments, but before they could do that they needed to understand the software better. And what better way than to use it?
It turned out that their New Media Initiatives blog is the second most popular blog on the Walker Arts website. It seems that this is due to peers being extremely interested in what the team were developing. Which is how I found out about their work, and I ended up visiting the center. And I live about 3900 miles away.
We spoke at length about our respective organisations' websites. There were some things that both Chris and I liked about their system. We also got to look behind the scenes at some audio-visual installations, and I ended up taking photos of their racks! Chris or I might post more technical details of how we compared in time.
Nate has sorted a meeting out for us in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts tomorrow, and we'll hopefully visit the Science Museum of Minnesota if we have time.
At MW2007 staff from the Whitney Museum of American Art examined the development and integration of the Collect Art tool into the Learning@Whitney web-site design from a practical, pedagogical and technical perspective.
Chuck Barger from Interactive Knowledge, Inc (USA) who designed the site with the Whitney staff gave us a brief introduction to the technical and navigation side of the site. I was impressed with what I saw and took the time to explore the site myself. The site is divided into Teachers, Kids and Teens. You can pour through their catalogue of works, zooming in to very high resolution. We were told that there were some copyright issues with the site, as I suspected.
As well as quality images the site has content to match - there are guidelines for teachers to follow. Not only does each artwork provide teachers with plenty of curriculum links, but also ideas for projects and llinks to further resources. Of course not all teachers need this guidance, but it does provide the site with mass appeal.
Examples of what teachers put together showed diverse ways of using the website, from printouts and collages to electronic presentations. I'm looking forward to visiting the Whitney and picking their brains a little further.
Usability and Accessibility
The conference is over now, and we're into the next leg of the journey, which is to visit more museums over here and look a bit deeper into what they're doing.
Some of the interesting sessions I should mention (and I'll end up writing about a few more) include an accessibility workshop hosted by Stephen Browne from De Montfort University and Brian Kelly of UKOLN, and a usability lab from Paul Marty at Florida State University and Michael Twidale at the University of Illinois.
In the usability lab, volunteers were asked to navigate a set of museum sites with a purpose in mind - planning a wedding, looking up botanical information, etc - not having visited those sites before. There were little struggles with navigation, wording of links, placement of information and so on which the designers hadn't anticipated.
Our site wasn't one of the sites that was examined, but it does make me think about how we plan our new collections-based area. We're hoping to offer more interactivity and the navigation will be based on categories, time periods, activities and other criteria. It'll be different from the rigid hierarchy of the rest of the site, so there's a lot of new accessibility and usability issues for us to deal with.
Hygyrchedd 2.0
Rydyn wedi bod mor brysyr gyda'r gynhadledd mae'n anodd ffeindio amser i ysgrifennu ein blog. Rydyn wedi cymryd llawer o'r gynhadledd, fallai un o'r gwersi gorau oedd i ysgrifennu ein mynediadau ystod diwedd y sesiynnau fel ein ffrind Nate o Walker Art Center.
Ges i'r wers hon tra yn sesiwn Accessibility 2.0 gan Brian Kelly (UKOLN) a Prof. Stephen Brown (Prifysgol De Montfort). Roedden yn edrych ar pa mor effeithiol mae canllawiau yr WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative). Mae e werth edrych ar fel allen cael i addasu gan crewyd y canllawiau yma yn 1999. Ac er bod set newydd o ganllawiau yn cael eu creu, dyw llawer ddim yn credu bod rhain yn ateb rhai o'r problemau sy'n ein gwynebu.
Roedd e'n diddorol eistedd gyda rhai oedd yn gweithio i archifau a llyfrgelloedd Canada. Mae nhw'n gwynebu rhau o'r un problemau a ni gyda dwyieithrwydd. Hyd yn oed yn waeth - mae rhaid gwneud peth stwff yn Métis ac Inuit! Mae'r archifau a'r llyfrgelloedd yn Canada yn cael eu noddi gan y llywodraeth, felly mae ganddynt canllawiau strict iawn.
Mae'n bwysig i ni edrych ar ein safwe mewn ffordd sy'n ateb canllawiau hygyrchu, ond hefyd i weld os mae ein cynnwys yn galluogi pobl i ddysgu mewn ffyrdd gwahanol i'r cyfrifiadur - fel roedd Brian yn sôn am - blended learning. Er bod dal lle am yr WAI, mae'n bwysig edrych ar dynesiad mwy holistaidd.
Alternative realities
There are some great projects looking at immersive learning that are finding good ways of appealing to young people. Game scenarios are an effective motivator.
Dick van Dijk from the Waag Society presented Operation Sigismund, which is an adventure game used to create a learning environment. It is based on existing archive material in the basement of the monumental building of the archive. It seems like a good example of playful learning vs. traditional elements.

Vintage Red Lattice Quilt
26 comments:
Oh, that really is a fun, happy quilt! Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
Beautiful quilt and the house is not too bad either. What a view! It looks like the quilt could end up as one of those long term projects where you find a few fabrics at a time.ReplyDelete
Beautiful quilt!ReplyDelete
Oh that is a happy quilt! Love the vintage look.ReplyDelete
Um, I want to live with that quilt too! Is your aunt looking for a family of 3 to move in with her? :)ReplyDelete
Oh, I like that quilt!ReplyDelete
I love that quilt! Are the ties at the center of each diamond the only "quilting?" I have been wanting to make a tied quilt for ages but am concerned about how it will wear. In any event, that is gorgeous.ReplyDelete
Beautiful! And I too would like to live where that quilt lives. Gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Love that quilt, and want to live where your Aunt lives! Wouldn't that be a grand give-away? JK, of course, but a girl can dream!ReplyDelete
what an amazing quilt! I want to recreate one too. And I want to live where that quilt lives.ReplyDelete
That quilt is so beautiful! I am really new to quilting, I've only made 3 so far.. I'd love to recreate that thing, but it baffles me how you would go about it. Would you really piece together seven strips for each block, and then join them together, or is it simpler than that?ReplyDelete
fun! i love old quilts. they all seem to have a story to tell!ReplyDelete
really beautiful! love this, your aunt has a great collection, can't wait to see the others. :)ReplyDelete
This is beautiful! I love all the red :)ReplyDelete
Definitely a happy quilt! I'm thinking your husband's aunt would be overwhelmed if we all showed up on her porch! What a fabulous place to live! Just perch me in a corner of that porch with my sewing machine. I'll even volunteer to mow the lawn! Looking forward to seeing the other two quilts!ReplyDelete
I agree. It is fun to look closely at the vintage fabrics. I'm betting that at some point you will make your own version.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing! I love to see what fabric from different eras looked like. What a great quilt!ReplyDelete
what a wonderful quilt - its been an inspiration to me! I have been quilting for ten years or so and collecting quilts for that long too.ReplyDelete
I am going to create a new blog showcasing my quilts and my vintage quilts.
Thanks for a beautiful blog.
Oh I wanna live with that quilt!!!ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
Beautiful quilt and lovely place to live. Maybe all who responded hear could have a picnic on her lawn. Of course, we would invite her and everyone would bring a quilt to show!ReplyDelete
This is a fabulous vintage "modern" quilt!ReplyDelete
You crack me up! Now see....where you are in life totally affects your definition of "vintage". I call vintage quilts, ummmm, I'd say 1950's and before. 1970's? Dang it girl, you're making me feel really old!ReplyDelete
Love this quilt and love its location. Can I be that quilt, it sounds like it has had a happy life. Hey are you going to do a tutorial or quiltalong on this one. Would love to join in. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete
what an awesome quilt! thank-you for sharing it with us, I can't wait to see the others!ReplyDelete
Thimbleanna - I think in this case "vintage" means "Characterized by excellence, maturity, and enduring appeal; classic."ReplyDelete
I have a vintage '65 log cabin wedding quilt, myself. A gift from my maternal grandmother.
Quilters then used wider strips and red solids and made happy quilts.
Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.
I apologize for the current comment settings that require a registered user account. They are the only way that I don't get tons of gross spam. I'm hoping Blogger will make a way where people who are not registered users, but would like to leave a comment can do so. Please, Blogger! In the mean time, thanks for your patience.
I also love to respond to questions. If you are a no-reply blogger, please leave an email address so I can get back to you. Or you can email me directly: amy @ diaryofaquilter.com. Thanks!

Illustration by H. Douglas Pratt
The common grackle is a common and often urban blackbird of eastern North America. Polytypic. Length 12.6" (32 cm).
Identification A large blackbird with strong legs and a long, graduated tail that is held in a deep keeled shape during the breeding season. Adult male: entirely black with noticeable iridescence in good light. Widespread form shows bronze gloss to body, blue head, and purple or blue iridescence on wings and tail. The iridescence of the head is different from that of the body, and changes abruptly; this applies to all forms of common grackle. Eyes are bright yellow, while legs and bill are black. Adult female: smaller and duller than male and does not hold tail in deep keel shape. Juvenile: brown, with dark eyes and faintly streaked on breast.
Geographic Variation Three subspecies. The bronzed grackle (versicolor), found northwest of the Appalachians, has bronze iridescence on body, a blue head, and purplish tail and wings. The purple grackle (stonei), found southeast of the Appalachians, has a purplish body and head, with a blue or greenish glossed tail. The Florida grackle (quiscula), ranging from Florida to southern Louisiana and South Carolina, has a greenish iridescence on its back.
Similar Species Brewer's and rusty blackbirds lack the long, graduated tail of common grackle, and they never hold it in a keeled shape. Boat-tailed and great-tailed grackles are much larger, with even more striking tails. Common grackles show a clear, abrupt division between the gloss color of the head and body.
Voice Call: a loud and deep chuck. Song: a mechanical, squeaky readle-eak. Both sexes sing.
Status and Distribution Abundant. Year-round: open and edge habitats, urban areas, agricultural lands, golf courses, swamps, and marshes. Migration: diurnal migrant; southern populations resident. Arrive at breeding areas mid-February–mid-March and early April in northernmost sites. Begins southward movements as early as late August, peaking October–early November. Vagrant: casual to far north, Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Churchill, Manitoba. Also casual in Pacific states and British Columbia.
Population Populations have boomed due to human alteration of habitat and spilled grain, but in the last 30 years the numbers have decreased significantly in the East. In the Northwest, populations and range are increasing.
—From the National Geographic book Complete Birds of North America, 2006
