Last week I was driving home from a great hike up Mount Tallac and noticed Lower Glen Alpine Falls was really pumping. I came back several days later and shot a few landscape images of the waterfalls. They turned out ok but I felt like something was missing. The next morning my fiancée was walking out the door to her yoga class and the idea dawned on me for a photo shoot. Originally I was thinking about putting a hiker in front of the falls to give them some scale but I realized that a person doing yoga would compliment the scene much better.
The next evening we styled out Regina (my fiancée) in some proper yoga attire and headed down to the waterfalls. The clothing was really important in this shoot because she needed to wear something that would make her "pop" in front of the falls. We settled on a bright red top and gray tights.
The time of day was also extremely important for this shoot. The waterfalls needed to be in the shade. Long exposures would be crucial to blur out the water and give the images an ethereal effect. From my previous shoot I knew that the waterfalls stopped getting sun after 6pm.
We got to falls around 7pm and began shooting. I think the hardest part about this shoot was in Regina's hands. All of my exposures needed to be just shy of a second to produce the ethereal effect I was looking for. This meant that Regina had to remain perfectly still for each exposure. Taking into account the difficulty of some of the poses that I wanted her to perform, this was no small feat. Any movement at all would render the image unusable. After we shot a couple test images, it was clear that she was more than capable of holding all of her poses without moving a muscle. What a rock star!
I am really happy with this set of images. It was such a fun project to shoot. I don't always like putting people in my landscape images but this seemed like the perfect scenario to implement the idea. This shoot has opened my eyes to some really cool possibilities for future projects. Did I mention that I LOVE WHAT I DO!

rondeauSyllabification: ron·deau
Pronunciation: /ˈrändō, ränˈdō /
Definition of rondeau in English:
noun (plural rondeaux /-dōz, ˈdōz/)
A thirteen-line poem, divided into three stanzas of 5, 3, and 5 lines, with only two rhymes throughout and with the opening words of the first line used as a refrain at the end of the second and third stanzas.
Example sentences
- Their fourth exercise/poem was their choice of a form using repetition or refrain: a villanelle, rondeaux, traditional ghazal, glosa, sestina or pantoum.
- The refrain of his rondeau is 'drop the saxophone, Danton, and get on with the show.'
- It may be that the most difficult poetic form isn't the sestina or the rondeau redoublé but a modernist, free-verse form commonly known as the 'skinny' poem: three-, two-, and often one-word lines expose the poet's every gesture.

Blue Jean Queen
Canadian Tuxedo or Bust for Fall!
If there is one thing we can count on for fall fashion, it's denim. This year is no exception. With the plentiful amount of denim options, there has never been a more perfect opportunity to find your ideal fit or color. It's time to get rid of the fear of full on denim and embrace our inner Canadian. Eh?
Denim Vest

To avoid looking like you're about to round up some cattle choose jewelry that is more sophisticated and girly. This will keep your outfit from looking less like a costume and instead more like a Ralph Lauren catalog.

Rihanna Gives Back to Hurricane Victims at 'Unapologetic' Party
Rihanna had fun and gave back at a pre-release party supporting victims of Hurricane Sandy on Friday.
Wearing a Proenza Schouler Birds Quilted Silk Jacket, the pop superstar greeted her fans at Jay-Z's 40/40 club in New York and played music off her upcoming album Unapologetic.
She donated 1,000 sleeping bags to the New York Daily News' Hurricane Sandy relief effort and encouraged others to do the same. Her fans were seen bringing clothing, blankets, and cleaning supplies, which will be delivered to hard-hit areas of the city on Saturday.
"Hurricane Sandy has deeply affected the lives of millions all across the Eastern Seaboard," RiRi told the Daily News. "Now is the time for us to come together and do whatever we can to aid those in need."
She will perform "Diamonds" and a new song off Unapologetic tonight on "Saturday Night Live."

New Grad Pay in Nashville
- 0Jun 12, '08 by Clear MorningDoes anyone know what new grad pay is in the Nashville area? Specifically for Vandy and Baptist? Someone told me that starting pay for a new grad at Skyline (day shift) is something like $16/hr . I make more than that already (non-nursing), so that was a little disheartening. Granted I will be doing what I love, but I am hoping that other hospitals can do better than this!
- 1Jun 12, '08 by PICUFLBaptist is $18.06 and not exactly sure what Vandy is. They just raised their pay. Probably $19ish
- 2Jun 17, '08 by eltripDon't forget about how shift differentials can increase your hourly wage. I recall starting as a new nurse at Vandy. The experience was invaluable, especially after I left middle Tennessee. Benefits aren't bad either & that's always an integral part of the compensation package to review.
- 0Jun 17, '08 by Clear MorningQuote from eltripGood point about Vandy. I am leanining more and more toward a career there (at least to start) because their orientation seems to top all others. What a great way to start as an RN.Don't forget about how shift differentials can increase your hourly wage. I recall starting as a new nurse at Vandy. The experience was invaluable, especially after I left middle Tennessee. Benefits aren't bad either & that's always an integral part of the compensation package to review.
- 1Jun 30, '08 by AJL_91I don't have an answer to your question about current new grad pay in Nashville...but just wanted to say that Vanderbilt is the BEST place to start your nursing career! I started as a GN there in June 1991...and base pay at that time was $11.35/hr.
I worked at Vanderbilt for 2 years before embarking on my travel nursing stints. It prepared me VERY well! I would love to work there again someday. It's the best hospital I've ever worked for (and there have been many since then!)
Good luck to you!!
Cheers, AJL
- 1Sep 22, '08 by daeanairaI just graduated in May. My best nursing school friend went to Vandy. They start at $19/hr or so, with night shift diff of $3 something. The weekend shift diff is supposed to be over $5, though, so if you work weekends, you can make some cash. They have good benefits, if you have a family or kids.
But, I am single, so I went where they pay more (without having to work every weekend). I chose a job at St. Thomas. I really like it there. They recently hired a TON of new nurses, so the nurse/patient ratios are pretty decent these days.
I work in a specialized area (not just med/surg), but they started at $21.22/hr, with $3.75 night shift diff, and $2 weekend shift diff. They also pay more for charge and if you offer to train orientees. Their benefits are pretty decent, but they don't offer the extras like paying for your kids college, like Vandy does. Baptist is owned by St. Thomas, so I imagine their rates are similar.
- 0Nov 2, '08 by DemarsGirlI started working at Vandy right after school in 2006. I worked there 2 years before I started traveling. As a new RN I made 17.25 then they went up to like 18.5 for the floor, 19.5 for ICU I think. The diff for week days is 3 before 11p 3.50 after 11p-7a. Weekend diff if 6 plus whatever shift diff you may be eligible for. Weekends for nights start Friday night and end Monday 7 am. Weekends for days are sat/sun. HTH
- 0Nov 6, '08 by wanderlust99Vandy gave all their nurses raises this year, so it is hard for me to say the exact rate. It's around 19 or 20 for ICUs and a dollar less on the floors.
$3 night diff and $6 weekend diff (which is amazing)
I say go with Vandy & you can work anywhere after that. Good luck.

Dispute over road project up for discussion in Oceanside
OCEANSIDE, Calif. - A dispute on the Oceanside City Council over a road construction project could flare up at a meeting Wednesday and affect the composition of the board of the San Diego Association of Governments.
One of the items on the agenda is a request by Councilman Gary Felien to remove Mayor Jim Wood, who also holds a council seat, from the board of directors of SANDAG, the regional planning body. The organization allocates funding for transportation projects, among its other functions.
Felien and colleagues Jack Feller and Jerry Kern want to connect the northern and southern sections of Melrose Drive, which are separated near Guajome Regional Park, according to U-T San Diego. Wood and Councilwoman Esther Sanchez oppose the project.
Felien, Feller and Kern contend that Wood has done a poor job in steering transportation funds to the city.
Wood has hired a lawyer to try to block his removal from the SANDAG board, on which he has served for six years, U-T San Diego reported. Wood was re-elected as mayor over two opponents in November.
The SANDAG board is generally made up of the mayors of its member cities. Feller would replace Wood on an interim basis if Felien's request is granted.

What is a Water Trail
Water trails are recreational waterways on a lake, river or ocean between specific locations, containing access points and day-use and/or camping sites for the boating public. Water trails emphasize low-impact use and promote stewardship of the resources, while providing healthy, outdoor activity.
The Konocti Regional Trails (KRT) group has created a series of seven draft Water Trail maps on Clear Lake. These include:
Water Trail 1: Rattlesnake Island - 4 mile loop
Water Trail 2: Tule Maze at Anderson Marsh - 6 mile loop
Water Trail 3: Cache Creek Dam - 10 miles roundtrip
Water Trail 4: Island Hopping in the Narrows - 8 mile loop
Water Trail 5: Volcanic Vents of Soda Bay - 6-9 miles round trip
Water Trail 6: Wetlands of Long Tule Point - 8-10 miles round trip
Water Trail 7: Rodman Slough - 8 miles roundtrip
Copies of the water trail maps can be found by selecting from the sidebar, or can be obtained at Lake County Visitor centers. See also our "Loop Guide to Best Paddling" at the bottom of this page. Explore these unique Lake County water trails!

10 Weird Competitions
Subscribe to our newsletter
Humans, as a whole, are very competitive by nature. So, when we get board with the "normal" competitions, like sports, out there we can come up with some very weird ones to occupy our time.
1. International Women's Day
In China, they celebrate International Women's Day. Throughout the day men compete in races where they have to run in high heels. There are other competitions where they can compete with their loved ones. There are also bars that will offer them free drinks if they come in dressed as a woman.
2. Midget Throwing Contest
This is normally held in bars. It consists of a dwarf, midget, or little person putting on a suit made of special padded clothing or a suit made of Velcro. Then, the patrons of the bar will toss one of them onto a mattress or a Velcro coated wall. The winner is the one who tosses the dwarf the furthest. This competition has been banned in a few parts of the world, but does continue on today.
3. SPAMarama
This competition was held for 31yrs in Texas. It was always held close to April Fool's Day. The competition included cooking entries with SPAM flavored ice cream, Moo Goo Gai SPAM, guacaSPAMoles, chicken-fried SPAM, SPAMuini, and SPAMalama Ding Dong. Other events throughout the festival included a SPAM carving contest, a SPAM calling contest, the SPAM toss, a SPAM facial, and a tug of war across a pit filled with SPAM jelly.
4. Supermarket Clerk Championships
The Japanese want to keep improving on their customer service abilities, so the hold a competition to see who the best supermarket clerk is. Each person competing is judged on customer service, technical skill, and speed with bonus points for smiling. Some of these competitors will practice for the entire year to improve their abilities.
5. Redneck Games
This series of competitions are held Olympic style over one day. The games include the hubcap hurl, bobbin' for pig's feet fest, and redneck horseshoes, which are toilet seats. All the proceeds that are collected from these games are giving to local charities.
6. Air Guitar Championships
Who knew that the one thing that everyone does during some of the best guitar riffs in your favorite songs is actually a competition? Each competitor is scored on a 6.0 score system and there are rules. There are two rounds, each lasting a minute. In round one the person gets to play a selection of their choice. In round two the selection is chosen by a competitor or one of the organizers, so knowing how to improvise is important. Each competitor is judged on technical merit, stage presence, and airness.
7. Ugliest Dog Competition
This contest happens once a year. It is held in California and televised on the Animal Planet channel. In this competition the contestants enter their dogs to win a thousand dollar prize. The uglier your dog the better chance you have at winning.
8. Worm Charming Championships
During this competition you have to be able to charm worms out of the ground. Each competitor gets a square plot and has thirty minutes to get as many worms to the surface as possible by using their charming method. Any type of vibrations to encourage the worms to come out of the ground can be used, but you are not allowed to dig them up.
9. World Beard and Mustache Competition
This competition goes on every two years. The categories that the contestants compete in are full beard, partial beard, and mustache. The toughest category is the natural full beard and a fan and media favorite is the freestyle category.
10. World Black Pudding Throwing Competition
This competition is to celebrate a rivalry between Lancashire and Yorkshire. The object is to knock the Lancashire pudding off of the pub wall with the Black Pudding that is being held together by a pair of women's stockings. You can only throw underhand, so it makes it more difficult to complete the task.

|DH and I are Seniors. Considering buying Wii for exercise. Anyone here have and USE this? Exactly which components would we need and what do they cost, please?

|My DH and I are seniors also and we got our wii fit plus for Christmas. We really love it! I think you can actually try it at places like Walmart and Best Buy. At first I thought I wouldn't like the 'cartoon' like mii people, but it sort of makes it more fun. There is yoga, strength, aerobics, balance, and some really silly but fun things to do. You can flap your arms like a chicken and land on different posts until you land on a ship. Yes, it's silly but you are moving your arms. Another game is step aerobics with a line of other mii people. The Hoola Hoop is fun and works your waist. There is jogging through the little mii town. A punching bag game to work your arms. There is a bicycle exercise (you step as if you are on a bicycle).My favorite game is the Obstacle Course that has you running, jumping and dodging objects. And oh so much more. You can do a mix of whatever you feel like doing. I do about 30 minutes nearly every day. You will need wii fit plus, the console to play it, and a balance board. It is a fixed price of about $300, but if you shop around you may find a store offering a bonus of a gift card or something extra. It is definately a good investment. And if you have children or grandkids over, they can do the exercises also because they are so much fun. You can go to nintendo wii online and see real people including us 'more mature people' doing the exercises. Go for it!
Linda Leaf
|I love my Wii, I use it everyday there are so many great excercise for the Wii that you never get bored. The wii actually got me back into excercieing and helped me love close to 50 pds
|I guess I should report back that we did buy the Wii Fit Plus and have each been using it almost every day for 20 - 30 minutes in the mornings. Now that the weather is nicer outside -- not too hot; not too cold -- we're using it less.
I agree with Linda. Her favorites are mine, too. My DH also likes the 'Table Tennis', 'Frisbee' and 'Basketball'. Our DGS, age 6, loves to play the 'Swordfight' and '100 Pin Bowling' games. (He has X-Box at home and sometimes plays those games in competition with his cousin in SLC. Amazing, huh?))
Glad to read that Beaw likes her Wii. I don't need to lose weight; need to gain *muscle*!
I have to thank this forum -- my 'go-to' place for real life information. We might not have bought this system without feedback here.

|I have a JD l120 about 10yrs old with 1065hrs on it. I use it for mowing as well as dragging a home-made chainlink drag on 4 acres of horse pasture. It has seen pretty hard use. A while back, only while pulling the drag, it began loosing pulling power and a "moaning" (the only way I can describe it) sound comes from the transmission (maybe?) and the machine slows to a crawl. After a rest it will do ok again for about 20/30 min. then repeats.
Also I just today replaced the blade spindles and can't seem to get the deck hooked to the lift mechanisim again. I unhooked it by removing the 4 pins from the lift. (2 on each side) one from the lifting part & one from a horizontal bar. If I get the lifting pins in I cant get the horizontal ones lined up for the bar to go on the pins.
Any ideas anyone with more mechanical expertise than me?? That would inclued everyone. :)
Follow-Up Postings:
|The dreaded moaning that comes from this transaxle is common enough. The transaxles on these tend to pack with grass on the top and side- keeping heat in rather than allowing the fan to cool. The oil inside deteriorates and won't hydraulically work plus can damage pump parts inside. With the amount of hours on your unit and use that it has seen, it may just be done. Some find improvement by changing the transaxle oil , which requires removal of the transaxle to do so. You will find several posts on the forum on this. Additionally, externally, enough wear may exist in the linkage so that your pedal doesn't quite actuate end to end. The traction belt itself may be worn or glazed along with the problems on the idler pulleys for the belt. Things to watch over, but again the noise is usually from inside. Infact, while the deck is off- clean the grass from around the transaxle and check the belt and pulleys from below.
To reinstall your deck, put the rear clips in first, the pull the deck so you can attache the center- finally the front.
|OP - and if you succeed in resurrecting that machine, get a source of compressed air or an electric leaf blower to blast all that trash and grass clippings off the tranny, underside and deck top after each use. Such will help in extending the life of any riding mower.
|thinking it is kaput. May just leave the deck off & drag with it being lighter may not stress the machine as much and last a while longer. Maybe can sell the deck with its new spindles in it.
Thinking of a new one any thoughts on a different brand or maybe diesel, ? Thinking of more horses and cut too. I am retireing in Jan so will have more time to take care of it better. A lil older & wizer?? ( I hope)
|If you still intend to drag that horse pasture the same way for another 10 years or so, just make sure you get a machine rated for ground engagement - hydro drive or gear drive, used or new. Then you will be able to pull those heavier loads without fear of damaging the unit... :)
|Until you actually change out the old oil, you don't know if it is kaput or not.
In any hydraulic system....healthy oil is the first order of business to address in the system operation.
Hydraulics (and hydrostatic drives) are not applications where the oil just "lubricates" machine parts while the parts do their work!! It is much more complex than simple lubrication of moving parts.
In hydraulics.......the oil itself is the main part that actually transmits power. When the oil becomes worn out and degraded...........it begins to foam and aerate. The foamy, aerated oil is incapable of supporting the hydraulic principles that the hydrostatic drive system is based upon.
Using the machine in its present condition for dragging (minus the deck) is NOT going to be any less strenuous on the tranny. Dragging presents a CONSTANT load the tranny must deal with. The weight of the deck is only a momentary load that that becomes insignificant once the tractor has gotten into motion. The strain of dragging, on the other hand, is more akin to climbing a long hill or incline.....that has no crest.
Removing the transaxle to drain it might seem like a daunting task for someone without experience, but it is a very "do-able" DIY project and has saved many a machine from being disposed of.
Of course if you just want to buy a new tractor, you can call it a "retirement gift" from you to you.
|Mownie as usual is concise in his explanation. The service could work out. However, L120s with a thousand hours of use don't have lots more left to give- especially being used on the rough side.. If you wished to give it a try yourself, $$ wise, you won't be out much. If someone approached me do it for them, with the hours and use- I'd suggest it may not worth the gamble tho. Enjoy, you only retire 2-3 times in life- make it a good one!
|I see yer point mounie didnt think of it that way (obviously) & what the heck I do have 2 crescent wrenches & a pipe to extend them, a hammer too somewhere :)
|***" I do have 2 crescent wrenches & a pipe to extend them, a hammer too somewhere :)"***
Shudder & cringe.
Happy New Year :^)
|Mownie: Sad part of that is--a lot of do-it-yerself-fixers don't have many more tools than that!
I worked with a guy who tried using a half-inch air drive torque wrench to turn the engine, to try to get it running!
You probably know how that turned out! BANG/flop/wide eyes/question marks/ angry boss! And, crankshaft with no threads! Hexx in camp, that day!
|Thanks all for the great info. I removed the Transaxel drained it and refilled it, etc etc.. It wasn't all that hard to do but I have to admit a very large & strong & mechanicly inclined friend happened by, and made the work much easier. Would have been a hassle to hold it up to take out and put the bolts back in except he could hold the unit in place with one hand and insert bolts on his side while I did the other.. Took longer to drain & refill than the removal & replacement. Machine works much better with only a slight noise when in motion. I dont remember if it had the nose when newer much too many hours ago.. Has much more speed & power & maintains it now too.
|There you go Mac. Good job! (and a round of applause for mr. mac, please folks)
Enjoy your retirement.
|If you would take on a job like this, should you just drain the oil or should you drain the oil and the use a "very" light oil to flush and disolve the sludge in the transmission before replacing with the operation oil
|There will not be any appreciable sludge build up to contend with.
The real issue in hydrostats is not due to any build up or collection of debris.................the issue is nearly complete degradation of the oil itself.
Essentially the oil loses practically all of its vital additives that make oil behave properly where the task is hydraulic work.
The main thing that goes wrong with the oil is that it loses its anti-foaming properties.
Once the anti-foaming (anti-aeration) properties are gone, the oil will begin to entrain large amounts of air in the form of micro bubbles.
The air entrained in the oil absolutely squashes the hydraulic principles that the hydrostat works on.
If there are any concerns that you might not be getting enough old oil out with a single draining, then repeat the job in about 2 or 3 years.
Flushing will not really help because the very little oil that DOES NOT drain out is sequestered inside the pump and motor anyway, so it's there until you operate the transmission again.
I do recommend that the tranny be left to drain at least overnight and even a week in cold temperatures would not be a bad idea.

PhotoPerfect Manual
Slide Show
This function enables you to put images from different folders together in the form of a slide show. Use drag&drop to pull the photos singly or in groups from the thumbnail view to the right place in the slide show list. You can also sort the list afterwards. Remove images from the list by pulling them out of it. The Exif description for an image can be changed by double-clicking it. The lists can be saved and reloaded. The time set in the dialog sets the delay between images during the show.
If the 'Sharpen' slider is set to more than zero, all images which are larger than the current screen resolution are sharpened to this extent before being reduced. The actual show is performed using the third party viewer FFV.exe. You can recall the operating instructions by pressing the [F1] key. If an image is selected when the show begins, that becomes the first image to be displayed.
You can pass on a slide show to other people by storing it on a CD. The Create CD option copies all the images of the currently loaded slide show to a folder of your choice and creates the necessary files including the viewer program FFV.exe for an Autostart CD. Under Windows XP the CD can be directly written to, in which case you must make sure to have a suitable medium in the CD drive.
