Design guidelines for museums, archives, and art storage facilities
Specialty Buildings Column Series, Part 2 of 6
August 11, 2010
|Photo 1. Condensation and frost formation on window head; interior finishes at window head have deteriorated and fallen away
Museums, archives, and art storage facilities require special design consideration for a number of reasons, most notably that the value of the building's contents often exceeds the value of the building itself. Even a minor
This column diagnoses the three most common moisture challenges with museums, archives, and art storage facilities and provides design guidance on how to avoid them.
1. Avoid severe swings in temperature and humidity
Museums, archives, and art storage facilities generally have strict requirements for interior temperature and relative humidity (RH) control. The unofficial museum standard for temperature and RH is 70°F and 50%.
While much attention is given to getting temperature and humidity levels just right, maintaining relatively constant conditions is generally more important than the levels themselves.
In fact, these set point recommendations are based more on anecdotes than on any rigorous testing or scientific evaluation. During World War II, conservators from the British Museum found that paintings hidden in slate quarry caves for protection experienced much slower degradation than when on display in the museum. The conditions in those caves—approximately 63°F and 58% RH—were loosely rounded to 60°F and 60% RH, and are considered the optimum museum environment for paintings. To account for occupant comfort and variability in collections, conservators established the ideal range for museums and libraries at 60-75°F and 50-65% RH.
In The Museum Environment, first published in 1978, author Garry Thomson stated that "modern day mechanical systems are capable of maintaining a year-round environment of 70° ±2°F, 50% ±5% RH." Although Thomson does not declare that these conditions are ideal for storing artwork or other artifacts, those numbers and that publication have been considered the "museum standard" for years.
2. Pay careful attention to fenestration and wall systems to avoid condensation
Museum environments typically have an interior dew point temperature of approximately 50°F—much higher than a typical office building or condominium—and this dew point is constantly maintained throughout the winter. In non-humidified buildings, the coldest exterior temperatures generally coincide with the driest interior conditions, reducing condensation risk in most cases. For museums, there is no corresponding drop in interior dew point at low exterior temperatures, thereby increasing the risk for condensation.
Condensation will form on interior surfaces that are colder than the ambient dew point temperature. While this is typically not a concern for walls with continuous insulation, framed walls with insulation placed between the studs may experience low interior surface temperatures due to thermal bridging through the framing. In relatively cold climates, such as the Northeast, thermal bridging in museum walls can drop interior surface temperatures to the point where condensation occurs.
The primary source of condensation, however, is fenestration. Aluminum windows, curtain walls, and skylights, even when thermally broken, often have interior frame temperatures below 50°F during colder winter periods (Photo 1, at top). Although insulating glass is generally sufficient to prevent widespread condensation on the vision areas, condensation may still occur in some cases.
The most common cause of glass condensation is the use of interior shading devices, which can insulate the framing and glazing from interior heat, while allowing interior moisture to reach those surfaces. Depending on the shade configuration, surface temperatures may be 10-20°F colder than the fully exposed condition. This creates a dilemma for museum designers, as shading devices are often required to control light levels, provide "blackout" capability for special exhibits or functions, and filter out ultraviolet radiation to protect artifacts from fading and degradation.
In cold climates, designers should consider specifying shading devices integral to insulating glass units (i.e., "between the panes") or fritted or coated/laminated glass to provide light control. If interior shades must be used, a source of heat, such as a fin-tube radiator below the window, should be provided to warm the space between the window and the shade while the shade is drawn.
Museums often contain design features such as large glazed walls and expansive skylight openings. Skylights pose a significant condensation risk due to their horizontal orientation, which contributes to additional heat loss via radiation at night. Skylights are often placed far from heat sources, which results in localized lower temperatures at the skylights. High-performance glazing and framing, integral condensate gutters, and local heat sources must be included in the design of museum skylights. A second option is to use interior laylights below the skylights, which create a captive airspace below the skylight that can either be heated or dehumidified to reduce condensation risk.
Another common source of condensation in museums is the moisture contained in moving airstreams. Air leakage across and within exterior walls can carry large amounts of moisture relatively far from the leakage site, creating the potential for widespread damage in a short amount of time. This is exacerbated by the typical pressure control scheme in museums, which tends to create positive interior pressure to prevent exterior contaminants from entering gallery or storage spaces. While positive pressure keeps contaminants out, it also forces moisture-laden air through any gaps in the envelope. Since maintaining negative interior pressure is rarely an option for a museum, a well-detailed, continuous air barrier must be installed to prevent air leakage and condensation. A continuous vapor retarder is also required for the enclosure, since moisture can diffuse through porous materials in the walls and roof system.
3. Specify an airtight enclosure to maintain humidity levels
In addition to carrying moisture, moving air, in the form of air leakage through the enclosure, also carries heat. If air leakage is severe enough, heat and moisture flows can cause variations in the interior temperature and RH. A daily swing of 10% RH due to cold, dry air infiltration could damage the museum contents and compromise the museum's reputation—the ability to maintain interior environmental conditions within tight tolerances is often a prerequisite to borrow collections from other museums. An airtight enclosure combined with a well-designed mechanical system is necessary to maintain tight control over the interior conditions.
In many cases, buildings with historic or artistic significance are converted into museum spaces. Such buildings are typically older, solid masonry structures with little or no insulation and inefficient fenestration systems.
Window condensation can often be addressed by installing new interior "storm windows" to provide thermal resistance and maintain the exterior appearance of the building. In this case, the interstitial space may also provide room for shading devices. The space must be slightly ventilated with outdoor air to prevent heat and moisture buildup, and the interior storm window should be airtight to minimize moisture flow and condensation. Drafty storm windows often result in heavy condensation or frost on the existing windows (Photo 3).
The simplest solution for walls is to place humidified spaces away from the walls, using those areas for corridor or other common space. If humidified space must be adjacent to masonry walls, a ventilated "art hanging wall" can be constructed inboard of the masonry and integrated with the building mechanical system (Figure 1 and Photo 4, below). This ventilated wall allows artwork to be placed on exterior walls without the temperature and moisture fluctuations that would otherwise occur. Close coordination between the architect, enclosure consultant, and mechanical engineer is required for this system to be successful. Depending on the condition and configuration of the existing walls, insulation may be allowable in this system without negatively affecting the walls.

Concierge.com's insider take:
This is Portland's playground. Mount Hood, located roughly an hour and a half from Portland, encompasses a vast and varied terrain that supports a dizzying number of diversions. In summer and early fall, hikers stroll out to the many lakes (Trillium Lake is a popular option) to swim, fish, and picnic. More adventurous types head out there for white-water rafting expeditions, mountain biking, and rock climbing. And die-hard skiers can hit the slopes year-round at the Timberline ski resort (www.timberlinelodge.com). Regardless of what activity you choose, you should make a point of visiting the massive Timberline Lodge, a National Historic Landmark built entirely by hand in the 1930s as a WPA project. The rustic, simply furnished rooms are fine and offer some exceptional mountain views, but it's equally popular as a scenic place to stop for lunch or a hot chocolate. Those interested in hiking should visit www.mazamas.org for more information.

A-6 Sight Feeder Truly a Monster
Posted 26 October 2005 - 08:19 PM
My quest started with a simple question. Is there a way to strap a whole case of paint onto the top of my A-5? Of course the answer to that is an emphatic no. But, using a fun and reliable new(kind of) product by APP, you can now increase the size of your hopper by 130. Yes, that's right, the Monster feeder holds an astounding 330 rounds!!
My first impression of the feeder is that it is a lot fatter that the stock, but that's to be expected. It seems to be a nicely constructed unit, very sturdy, with the exception of one small area. The nodule that locks into the cyclone lip tends to "slice" itself off after attaching and detaching a few times. The simple fix to this was to take a single strip of electrical tape and run it around the base of the hopper, creating a very snug fit, with no movement whatsoever. Also, the hopper rises just slightly more than stock, yet once again this is trivial in the name of capacity. This should be every broadswords first upgrade. BTW I picked this item up at the SpecOps store in N. Salt lake for about $14.99. I urge everyone who deigns to carry more paint to the field to buy one of these now!! Feel free to post questions, comments, or even your own $.02 about your own experience with this product.

The general consensus is also that they break fairly easily compared to other A-5 hoppers. It's not like it's going to snap under its own weight, but if you drop the gun there's a decent chance of it breaking.

Believe me, I've fallen flat on my face with this thing and even dropped it a few times. It is sturdy. Not quite as much as the stock hopper, but the stock hopper doesn't give me 350 paintballs on gun, either. Yes, it is big, and yes, it adds like 5 ounces to your overall gun weight. Wow. If you have trouble with the weight get a sling. I'm a broadsword, so I go through a lot of paint. Overall, if you want more paint capacity above anything else, this should be your first upgrade.

hes a broadsword...he needs ammo
if yer a dagger you dont need a 330 rnd hopper
you need light
but if yer a broadsword...sumtimes you need to reload in a firefight with the stock hopper
the xtra 130 rounds give you that extra ammo you need to keep fighting w/o reloading as much
and 5 oz...big whoop do some curls for a week for the xtra strength lol
thats not even 1 lb

Welcome to Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review, a new ratings service that allows
you to view and provide feedback on a lawyer or law firm on service and relationship
qualities such as Communication Ability, Responsiveness, Quality of Service, and
Value for Money.
Determining a Rating
The Client Review Rating is determined through aggregation of validated responses.
This compilation of Client Reviews translates to a numerical rating and associate
descriptive term on a scale of 1 -5. 1 being lowest as "Rated" and 5 being highest
as "Preeminent".
Martindale-Hubbell uses a third-party resource to validate that the respondent is
a living person, but cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship, which in many
cases is confidential. Clients must affirm that they are a client of the lawyer
or firm identified for review at the time of the completed Client Review.
The Reviewers
Those who complete Client Reviews are clients of law firms who hired a lawyer within
the last year, whose matter is not pending, and want to share their experience of
that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be of any type
from in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners to private individuals,
and even sometimes another lawyer in a different jurisdiction.
Client Reviews are anonymous and reviewers' identities are not published;
however a summary of basic demographics will be part of the display of responses.
Why do we collect demographics as part of the review?
Those who are researching a lawyer or law firm like to see that there are other clients who might be "like them". This
is valuable information contributing to the decision-making process of hiring a
Martindale-Hubbell's role
Martindale-Hubbell facilitates the process of Client Review by gathering responses,
validating them and aggregating results for display online. The content of the responses
are entirely from reviewers, the clients of the firm or lawyer.
It is important to note that Martindale-Hubbell does not undertake to develop Client Reviews for all
firms and lawyers. Therefore, the fact that a firm or lawyer has not been reviewed
should not be construed unfavorably. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome
and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of
any review over which Martindale-Hubbell exercises no editorial review or control.
An explanation of the Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings
A Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating reflects a combination of achieving a Very High General Ethical Standards rating and a Legal Ability numerical rating.
General Ethical Standards Rating
The General Ethical Standards rating denotes adherence to professional standards of conduct and ethics, reliability, diligence and other criteria relevant to the discharge of professional responsibilities.
Those lawyers who meet the "Very High" criteria of General Ethical Standards can proceed to the next step in the ratings process.
Legal Ability Ratings
For lawyers rated with the changed methodology, Legal Ability ratings will now indicate professional ability within a specific area of practice. Legal Ability ratings are based on performance in five key areas, rated on a scale of 1 to 5 (with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest). These areas are:
Legal Knowledge - Lawyer's familiarity with the laws governing his/her specific area of practice(s)
Analytical Capabilities - Lawyer's creativity in analyzing legal issues and applying technical knowledge
Judgment - Lawyer's demonstration of the salient factors that drive the outcome of a given case or issue.
Communication Ability - Lawyer's capability to communicate persuasively and credibly
Legal Experience - Lawyer's degree of experience in his/her specific area of practice(s)
Additional Feedback
The changed Peer Review Ratings allow reviewers to provide optional Additional Feedback on the lawyer under review. Additional Feedback is displayed anonymously in conjunction with the review results to the lawyer under review. LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell reserves the right not to display any feedback.
Reviewer Demographics
Peer Review Ratings are anonymous and reviewers' identities are not published, but in an effort to provide more details to the users of Peer Review Ratings, LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell will aggregate reviewers' basic demographics, including general position and general geographic location, which may be published with the ratings display on martindale.com® and Lawyers.comsm. Examples of basic demographics are "private practice lawyer, senior partner, New York, USA."
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating
After a lawyer's General Ethical Standards and Legal Ability Ratings are confirmed, his/her ratings are aggregated to create an overall numeric rating for each rated Area of Practice. The numeric rating determines the Peer Review Rating, which includes a rating term and may include a Certification Mark:
AV® Preeminent™ (4.5 - 5.0) - An AV® certification mark is a significant rating accomplishment - a testament to the fact that a lawyer's peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence.
BV® Distinguished™ (3.0 - 4.4) - The BV® certification mark is an excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. A widely respected mark of achievement, it differentiates a lawyer from his or her competition.
Rated (1.0 - 2.9) - The Peer Review Rated designation demonstrates that the lawyer has met the very high criteria of General Ethical Standing.
For lawyers rated in the existing program, the display will appear differently than those reviewed in the changed methodology. Because the lawyers converted to the new display have yet to be re-reviewed in the changed system, there will not be the depth of detail available on their Legal Ability Rating, Area of Practice specificity, Additional Feedback or Reviewer's Demographic data.
The Reviewers and Anonymity
The reviewers are members of the Bar and Judiciary (lawyers and judges) across multiple jurisdictions and geographic locations and are listed on martindale.com. They are from similar areas of practice and/or industry as the lawyer being rated, who know or have worked with the lawyer under review and are able to rate them on their professional ethical standards and legal ability. All Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings review materials are treated as anonymous. LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell takes steps to protect your anonymity (e.g., not associating reviewer names with their responses and aggregating their responses with responses from other reviewers before sharing or publishing them). But it is possible that their responses may contain sufficient information to allow the rated lawyer to ascertain their identity.
Facilitating the Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings Process
LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell facilitates the peer review process by gathering responses, validating them and aggregating results for display online. The content of the responses are entirely from reviewers, the peers of the lawyer. Peer reviewers must affirm that they are a peer of the lawyer identified for review. A peer can submit only one review for a specific lawyer within a 12-month period.
A lawyer's rating will generally improve over time. But LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review ratings can be revised downward, or even removed if a decline is noted in ability or ethical standards. While LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell makes available the option of regular rating reviews for the lawyers, the most recent results are relied upon when determining the final rating.
It is important to note that because LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell does not undertake to develop Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings for all lawyers, the fact that a lawyer is not rated should not be construed unfavorably. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review responses displayed in whole or in part by LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell. LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell may use your responses in whole or in part in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, but it is not required to do so. LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell reserves the right, in its sole, unrestricted discretion, not to publish or otherwise use all or any portion of any responses or submissions it may receive.
No subscription or listing on martindale.com or lawyers.com is ever solicited or accepted on the promise of publication of a particular Peer Review Rating. No preferential consideration is ever given to any lawyer or law firm. There is never any payment made to lawyers and judges who participate in rating reviews. The process is a cooperative service with the Bar and the Judiciary.
It is LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell policy to conduct regular random periodic reviews of all Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings to insure their accuracy. Where supporting opinions dictate, appropriate action (such as deleting, raising or lowering a rating) is taken.
Disbarred or suspended lawyers automatically have their LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings removed as soon as notified by a state Bar. Other types of lawyer disciplinary actions administered by the appropriate Bar or judicial authorities may also be grounds to remove a rating. While Bar admitting authorities supply LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell with disciplinary information, LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell also reserves the right to investigate information developed from the Bar or the judiciary regarding rated lawyers that have occurred that may impact the ethical standards of a rated lawyer.

Calgary Travel Guide
Calgary Local History
Calgary means "clear running water" in Gaelic. The citizens are not ashamed of their cowboy background and celebrate it with abandon for two weeks in summer.
The oil boom of the 1970s brought dramatic changes to the town which almost overnight emerged from a small sized town to a city of steel and glass. The city is the headquarters of the Canadian oil industry which means that its residents are generally well educated, if not well heeled.
Calgary Attractions
Calgary Shopping
Alberta Boot Co - You can visit both the factory and the store by the province's only Western boot manufacturer. Boots made out of ostrich, python, rattle snake, lizard, alligator, kangaroo and off course, cowhide can be yours, but not cheap, for between C$235 and C$1 700.
Eau Claire Market - This is a two story shopping mall that includes a produce market.
Riley and McCormick - Don't forget that you are in the wild West and therefore need cowboy hats, shirts, spurs and other Western gear. The shop is on Stephen Ave Walk.
Calgary Activities
Calgary Zoo - Besides animals, the zoo has a botanical garden with a tropical rain forest. There is also a prehistoric park featuring fossil displays. Picnic areas dot the zoo.
Calaway Park - This is an amusement park, said to be Canada's largest, which has live daily entertainment, mini golf, a playground and some 27 rides. The Twiz and Twirl, an interactive maze, is a recent new addition.
Calgary Parks & Gardens
Devonian Gardens - On the 4th floor of a shopping complex is this indoor garden of 20 000 plants besides fountains, benches, fish ponds and a sculpture gallery.
Calgary Restaurants and Bars
Calgary is the centre of the cattle industry in Canada and therefore there superior beef abounds. Calgary has a city lunch specialty known as beef dip, a thinly sliced roast served plain in a long bun (usually with chips) and a bowl of sauce to dip the meat into.Big Rock Beer is the big local brew.
Calgary Restaurants
Peter's Drive In - Service is through a walk up window where you place your orders. Meanwhile, cars idle in the drive up lane where they also place their orders. There is a big lawn with picnic tables for those who want to use them. The scene is typically American and so is the food. It is on 219 16th Avenue NE.
Ho Won - The 180 items on the menu are enough to make you go there out of curiosity. But then, the Chinese are noted for turning almost everything that moves and almost everything that grows, into food. On 115 2nd Ave NE, this Chinese restaurant apparently has a large following.
Wildwood - If you are that way inclined, Calgary is the one place in which to indulge in meat. Just as you wouldn't go to Austria without tasting their pastries, for example, Calgary is the home of prime and superior meat. The city is the heart of the Canadian beef industry and has lots of it to spare for export too. Wildwood, on 2417 4th Street SW, is the place to savoir the taste of meat. Besides beef, the choices include elk, lamb and caribou.
Brewsters Eau Claire - Lunch is between C$13 - C$14 and dinner C$11 to C$20 and worthwhile including in the meal is a beer. The venue is part of a small chain and brews its own beer on the premises including some fruity ones. There is more than the standard pub grub and the pepper seared tuna sandwich sounds particularly appetising for lunch and the Irish ale salmon for dinner.
Calgary Bars & Clubs
Ship and Anchor - This is a neighbourhood pub on 534 17th Ave SW that draws a mixed crowd. When the weather is fine, patrons can sit on the patio and watch the world go by. If they are indoors, they can amuse themselves with the television that inevitably means sport. There is both live and canned music.
Ceili's - Every city has its trendy spot where the "who is who" of converge. But you don't have to be part of this set to be there. If you just want a good night out in congenial surroundings, then this is it. Ceili is an Irish Gaelic term meaning "a gathering of friends for song, dance and drink" which gives away the fact that this is an Irish pub and restaurant. Their beef and barley soup, containing diced beef, vegetables and Guinness Stout, sounds interesting enough to try.
Ming - This has a trendy urban setting, stainless steel stools and tables. Located on 520 17th Ave SW, its house special is sweet potato fries served with banana ketchup and mesclun greens.
The Palace Nightclub - This was once a theatre built in the 1920s that has been renovated into this rather extravagant night spot. There are huge columns, Egyptian statues and a wall of water as part of the decor, and dancing girls complete the ssccenery. There's a quiet lounge for those who would rather take in the scene than get onto the dance floor. It is on 219 8th Ave SW.
Calgary children's activities
Calgary Zoo - Besides animals, the zoo has a botanical garden with a tropical rain forest. There is also a prehistoric park featuring fossil displays. Picnic areas dot the zoo.
Calaway Park - This is an amusement park, said to be Canada's largest, which has live daily entertainment, mini golf, a playground and some 27 rides. The Twiz and Twirl, an interactive maze, is a recent new addition.

Victoria's Secret has an amazing bra that's not wireless, but gives the same idea of support. And now I can't find the bra to give you the name.
But here's my advice when shopping for bras - look for material in the cup that is very "sturdy". It can be on the thicker end of material, but it helps give support. Also, look for the band to come up a bit higher. It'll take some getting used to but worth it to not have the underwire pain.
I have one of each of these and like them:
I'm a 40DD at this point and both of them work well. The one from a Pea in the Pod is a little more comfortable but the one from JCPenney is a little more padded and I think gives a little better shape to the ladies.
I got a bravado bra from diapers.com and they delivered overnight---and i LOVE it. I'm a 40F. And I was having the worst time trying to get anything comfortable. So I bought one of these because I've heard good news about them. And I can say this is the only bra that I actually like to keep on.
If you have any coupons from diapers.com for like 10 dollars off from any magazines for diapers/wipes you can add a pack of diapers with your order and then put in the coupon code and you'll get the diapers for free. And its free shipping.
I don't know about any wireless regular bras, but I am a 36DD (I was a 38DD for previous pregnancy) and I found this wireless nursing bra to be extremely comfortable and supportive.
I just posted about this exact thing on a previous thread earlier today.
I bought bras at a specialty store (large size - 34 i, but I was a 32 G pre-preg) that had no
underwire and AMAZINGLY still gave me support. its actually a nursing
bra. one is the Goddess Comfort Zone Nursing Bra 2050. The other is
Freya Dotty Soft Cup Nursing Bra AA2034. The boutique I go to
specifically orders from the warehouse of http://www.biggerbras.com/
where you can find these bras online. They give great tips on how to
measure yourself, etc, and what size you should be ordering. Good luck!
Just go to the 'Browse Types' link, and search for nursing/maternity
bras. Life saver!
Say no to uni-boob! I am typically a 36 D on a regular day but prego boobs are about 38DD and sometimes spilling over that. I would say Victorias Secret is the way to go. I hate underwire but if you get the good ones, you aren't getting poked as much. Or if you can, check out Nordstroms (they're just about the same price). They have great bra ladies there and they are usually very helpful. I cried in the middle of VS with my first one, I went from a 36A to a 36DD in about 3 weeks. I barely wore a bra before baby #1. Yay for big boobs
I also just want to say that I was going to Victoria's Secret for bras and assumed that since DD was the largest there, that I could not possibly be bigger. So I figured, maybe I'm not a 36, maybe I'm a 38? But that didn't fit right either.
When I got professionally fitted, I realized I was actually a 32, and that the cup size was much larger than I ever thought possible. Bras are much more expensive being large breasted, but it is WELL WORTH IT to get correctly fitted at a specialty store, or at Nordstrom's (where they carry larger sizes). Victoria's Secret tried cramming me in DDs that just didn't fit because they wanted to make a sale, instead of telling me that I really should go to a specialty store.
If VS works for you, then that's great! But I'm wondering if you're not really a 38DD, maybe you are small in the waist and larger in the cups like I was. It made such a difference...

ADHD & MAM, Part 1
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), commonly referred to as ADD, is one of the polarizing subjects. Some think it's a money-making scheme cooked up by pharmaceutical conglomerates, others think it's a legitimate disease and diagnosis, but most simply don't know much about it.
Related Article: ADHD & MAM, Part 2
It is vital that all summer camp personnel be aware of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), what it means, and the most common medications prescribed to treat it.
Here we'll discuss the high incidence of dispensation of psychotropic medications for children, while also identifying the highest prescribed medications for the treatment of ADHD.
Defining Terms
For the past five summers I have dedicated my time, service and commitment to camp nursing. During this time, I have witnessed the prevalence of campers on psychotropic medications rising dramatically. Where, once upon a time, camp nursing meant band aids, bear hugs and bug juice, it now means prescriptions, packets and Prozac.
Children who experience high levels of activity or are boisterous and disorderly, do not necessarily suffer from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
ADHD, according to Mosby's (1998), is defined as "a syndrome affecting children, adolescents, and adults characterized by short attention span, hyperactivity, and poor concentration."
Those children diagnosed with ADHD are noted to always be in a hurry and have a heightened level of frustration when attempting to complete tasks. They give up accuracy for hastiness. They display moderate to severe distractibility, short attention span, impulsive behavior, and extreme mood changes.
Usually these children are in "societal and environmental overload."
According to Wong (1993), confirmation cannot be made until a series of tests confirm a learning disability. These include intelligence tests (these children tend to have above-average IQs), hand-eye coordination tests, and measurements of auditory and visual perception, comprehension and memory.
Psychotropic medications are defined as those meds that have an altering effect on perception or behavior and they are used to treat a myriad of behavior, emotional, and mental disorders, which include ADHD.
Many clinical trials for medications have proven effective for the treatment of ADHD. This does not mean, however, that the treatment is indeed necessary and should be prescribed for all hyperactive children. Many of the drugs under this classification cause more harm than good if over-utilized or abused.
The literature does not state whether the prevalence of ADHD has risen, but what is quite clear is that the number of children identified with the disorder who obtain treatment has risen over the past decade.
Some of this increased identification and increased treatment may be due to greater media coverage, coupled with consumer awareness, and the availability of the treatments.
A study by Medco Health Solutions Inc., recently reported that there is 23 percent increase in the use of medication for altering behavior for all children, including a 49 percent increase in ADHD drugs by children under five!
Americans are now spending more on drugs for ADHD and depression than they do on antibiotics, asthma or allergy medications for children. Some of these commonly used medications for the treatment of ADHD are Ritalin, Adderral, Strattera and Concerta.
Ritalin is a central nervous system stimulant and comes in tablets of 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg. Ritalin also comes longer-acting: Ritalin-SR, sustained release tablets that come in 20 mg, and Ritalin LA, extended release capsules that come in 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg.
Some side effects of Ritalin include: nervousness, decreased appetite, head aches, heart problems, rapid heart rate, trouble sleeping, nausea, stomach aches, joint pain, skin rashes and hives, peeling skin, skin redness and itching.
Adderral is a stronger form of the natural body stimulant adrenaline, which helps a child who has ADHD focus and reduces the child's excess fidgeting and hyperactivity. The side effects of this medication include restlessness, tremor, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia, nervousness, dryness of the mouth, diarrhea, and headaches.

Butt implants Miami Florida need advice. My younger sister wants to get rid of her flat butt and get implants maybe. I am getting some plastic surgery too and wanted to ask for her too. What plastic surgeons do a good job with this and will make her look juicy in a bikini. She is 33 years old.
Well I don't know if butt implants are the solution to looking "juicy" as you put it. A tight, toned in-shape body and legs will beat butt implants any day.You have to remember that the butt is a joint like your elbow or knee is. The reason implants in the breasts work is because that's a part of the body that doesn't really move. It moves every time we walk, stand, sit, or any other physical activity involving our legs. Not to mention you have to sit on it. This is why I don't think butt implants are a good idea, but augmentation using a fat transfer may be okay. Butt augmentation / butt implants in Miami is probably the #1 place for these procedures, so you're in luck in that sense :)
Yeah, the "juicy" comment caught me off guard lol. I have an extremely small posterior, and I must say, butt implants are one surgery that has never even slightly peaked my interest.
la_angel is right about Miami probably having a plethora of surgeons for this particular surgery.
If you are affiliated with this doctor's practice in any way, shape, or form, please be aware that it is now federal law that you must disclose that. You can't just come onto a plastic surgery forum and say so and so is the best for butt implants in Miami, without disclosing your relationship.
Agreed, la_angel. I would like to know how "hellokitty" knows the aforementioned doc is the best. Forum posters cannot break the law.
Maybe the mods/admins want to make some sort of disclosure members have to agree to, prior to joining so they understand and not break the law. This might help to weed out some of the minimal posting members who need to promote a particular doc. Those who have never been here before and never return again, or only return to promote surgeons. Advertise much?!?
** No offense to the real Hello Kitty ... I love her. ;) :) :D

I Have been using a Cocoa Town Melanger for a few months now, to produce cacao paste and grind coconut sugar with chocolate. I am having issues with the sugar sicking to the stone grinders. Does anyone have any experience & suggestions as to why this is occurring?
The strange fact is that my machine was producing perfect chocolate for about 2 weeks and then the sugar started sticking to the granite grinders. I have not changed any aspect of the way I am processing the chocolate. I have also experimented using different brands of sugar - the same problem occurs.
Here is a set by step as to what my process is like - 1. I add melted cacao paste to grinder 2. Add melted cacao butter 3. Add vanilla bean & salt ( I let this mix together for about an hour before I start to add the sugar) 4. Slowly add the sugar, 1 tablespoon every hour.
I would really appreciate any advice you can give me! Thank you!

Hi There,
have you checked the Humidity and the temperature?
sometimes a bit of rain or too low temp may give you problem with sugar. Have you tried to grind the sugar first to turn it into powder?
hi there, I am just finding your post and would love to talk with you about your current experience using coconut sugar. I am also using it and have learned the hard way to either dehydrate the sugar first or use dessicant to get the humidity under control. I have experienced exactly what you are talking about with my cocoatown melanger, and wondered if you have upgraded to a better machine? I am looking to buy something in a larger capacity that won't break!
It has been hard to find anyone else using coconut sugar to discuss this with. thanks, Beth

Nicholas Strong and Jolene Purdy are the latest to be cast in CBS' Under the Dome, a drama based on Stephen King's 2009 novel, TVGuide.com has learned.
The serialized drama, which will be produced by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, is about a small New England town that becomes sealed off from the world by an oversized transparent dome. The show will follow the citizens' survival as they try to learn more about the dome and how to get rid of it.
Secret Circle's Britt Robertson cast in CBS' Under the Dome
Purdy (Glee, Donnie Darko) will play Dodee, a brilliant, eccentric engineer at the local radio station, who will draw on her unique skills in an effort to make contact with the world outside the dome. Strong, who currently co-stars as JT on Nashville, will play Phil, a popular radio DJ and indie rock fanatic with a dark secret.
Purdy and Strong join the previously cast Britt Robertson, Natalie Martinez, Alex Koch and Colin Ford.
In November, CBS granted a straight-to-season order of 13 episodes of the sci-fi series. Niels Arden Oplev, who directed the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, will helm the first episode. King, Neal Baer, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank and Stacey Snider join Lost's Brian K. Vaughan, who wrote the adaptation, as executive producers.

lm2DMV for Maya 2011 64-bit on Mac OS X
I compiled a Mac OS X 64-bit friendly version of the lm2DMV mental ray shader. The lm2DMV motion vector shader allows you to render motion vectors from your Maya scene. This allows you to apply motion blur to your renders as a 2D process in your compositing package.
Download the Maya 64-bit for Mac OS X version of lm2DMV here.
The lm2DMV shader was created by Guy Rabiller for LaMaison.
The supporting Maya files were created by Horvatth Szabolcs.
The Mac OS X 64-bit version for Maya was compiled by Andrew Hazelden. This shader works with Maya 2011, 2012, and 2013.
lm2DMV Usage Instructions:
Assign the lm2DMV_2 mental ray shader as the surface material to objects in your Maya Scene.
Disable Raytracing in the render settings.
Set the motion blur setting to Full.
Change the Shutter Open and Shutter Close to 0.5
Choose either the Smoothkit or ReelSmart RSMB Vector output modes.
If you render to either a 16 or 32 bit buffer you can eliminate banding in the motion vector pass.
Shader Installation
Maya 2011 Installation
This version of the lm2DMV mental ray shader was compiled for Maya 2011+ on Mac OS X 64-bit. Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is required.
If you want to go inside the Maya.app package, right click on Maya.app and select "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu.
Copy lm2DMV_v2.mi to the mentalray include directory:
Copy lm2DMV_v2.dylib to the mentalray lib directory:
Copy the AElm2DMV_v2Template.mel scripts to the Maya scripts folder:

Thank you man. I've been searching for this info a lot. Great work.
Hey mate! Thanks for your work on this. Very cool.
Presumably one must still edit the maya.rayrc file still or not? As per:
- Add the following lines after similar declarations in the maya.rayrc file: (The rayrc file is in the Maya/mentalray directory)
link "{MAYABASE}/lib/lm2DMV_v2.{DSO}"
mi "{MAYABASE}/include/lm2DMV_v2.mi"
Thanks so much. When the old .so didn't work, I was HOPING someone made a new one. You rock.
Works like a charm! Thanks alot man, been looking for this for months!
Thank you... I was all the day searching a solution...
Hi, thanks for compiling the shader, it works fine in maya 2012, but i cant get it work in maya 2013. Ive noticed that mentalray folder moved outside .app folder, so i copied files there, but shader wont appear in the list. Do you have any suggestions what to do?
thanks in advance
Thank you for such a quick response, it worked like a charm. I'm an IT guy in small post/production company and I'm much more into After Effects and it stuff then 3D at all, and all these same named folders repeating in different structures made me headache.
Thank you sir, you have saved my day

3rd ROBO-ONE Humanoid Helper Project: More than just bipedal robots (Video)Although the large, almost life-sized, humanoid robots like Doka Harumi tend to capture most of the public attention, the ROBO-ONE organization hasn't limited it's initiatives to only bipedal designs. Many of the events and special projects include multi-legged or wheeled robots. For example, the main event on the agenda for the first day of the ROBO-ONE Humanoid Helper Robot Project competition last month was dedicated to "Table Top" robots. The goal was to demonstrate how robotics could be utilized in a domestic, senior care, or hospital setting to provide help and assistance. The rules were fairly open and accommodating, allowing robot designers to enter a wide range of different configurations. A good example is Dynamizer TT, operated by Tomio Sugiura famous for creating the ROBO-ONE champion humanoid Dynamizer: Purists might argue that it doesn't duplicate the functionality of a human doing the same tasks, but that is exactly the point. A washing machine doesn't clean clothes the same way that our great-grandmothers did by hand. A Roomba doesn't push around a heavy vacuum cleaner. And, a car isn't a carriage without a horse. Our robotic future is much more likely to be populated by numerous small, affordable, dedicated purpose robot assistants than humanoid shaped Mini-Me's. Of course it will be great to have humanoid companions, teachers, and friends, but they are likely to be in the minority, perhaps limited to only the very rich, or the extremely needy.

Evaluation 2013: The State of Evaluation Practice in the Early 21st Century
27th Annual Conference of the American Evaluation Association
Washington Hilton | Washington, DC, USA
The 27th Annual Conference of the American Evaluation Association was a huge success! Thank you to all the attendees and speakers!
Presidential Strand: The State of Evaluation Practice in the Early 21st Century
AEA's 2013 president, Jody Fitzpatrick, explained the theme as follows: "Evaluation is not only a transdiscipline, but those of us in it come from many different disciplines and evaluate different types of programs in arenas as different as education and transportation. ...many people conducting evaluations are not members of AEA, were not trained in evaluation, and may not even call themselves evaluators. But, we are all collecting information to help others make judgments about programs. I would like us to learn more about this "big tent" of evaluation. Bringing this knowledge — and these people — together will not only make us more inclusive, but can improve the overall quality of evaluation."
In keeping with the theme, the conference boasted evaluators from all disciplines, fields and experience levels. Forty-three percent of attendees were first-timers, and 11 percent were students. Attendees experienced four days of education sessions, four days of professional development workshops, and multiple networking events including an Awards Luncheon; Meet the Authors, Poster Exhibition & Reception; Reception & Silent Auction; Birds of a Feather lunch; and informal time during coffee breaks, TIG meetings, and during sessions.
Conference Highlights
Volunteers' photos from Evaluation 2013 have been posted on Facebook! Take a look and tag yourself and your fellow evaluators as you spot them in the album.
AEA Evaluation 2013 included 18 Presidential Strand sessions addressing the conference theme and four Presidential Strand plenaries:
The conference also offered two-day, one-day and half-day professional development workshops. These workshops offer evaluators at all phases of their careers an opportunity to take a look at a topic or skill set of interest under the tutelage of an expert facilitator or facilitators. View all the professional development workshops.
Conference education opportunities also included more than 800 sessions for evaluators in many different disciplines, across all experience levels. Session formats included: Birds of a Feather gatherings; demonstrations; expert lectures; ignite sessions; panels; paper presentations; poster presentations; roundtables; skill-building workshops; and think tanks.
In addition to the great educational and networking highlights, 36 exhibitors showcased their evaluation-related products and services. The conference's sponsors included Gravic Inc. – Remark Software, SAGE, and Westat. View a full list of exhibitors.
Save the Date for 2014
AEA Evaluation 2013 was truly a hit, and we hope this year's conference is even better! Save the date for Evaluation 2014 in Denver, Oct. 15-18, 2014.

On Easter Sunday, Christ broke out of the seeming permanence of death. That breakthrough was a sign of what lies in store for any who will come to Christ as a follower. It was also a sign of the ability of God to break through every form of barrier, hindrance, and grave that stands in his way. This happens in our lives when we accept Him. It happens when God gets "under the skin" of even the most outward pagan.
When George Bush was Vice President of the United States, one of his official duties was to represent our country at the funeral of Soviet leader Brezhnev. The entire funeral procession was marked by its military precision. There was a coldness and hollowness which enveloped it. Since the Soviet Union is officially atheistic, no comforting prayers or spiritual hymns were sung. Only the marching soldiers, steel helmets, and Marxist rhetoric were offered. There was no mention of God.
Mr. Bush was close to the casket when Mrs. Brezhnev came for her last goodbye. Bush says, "She walked up, took one last look at her husband and there — in the cold, gray center of that totalitarian state, she traced the sign of the cross on her husband's chest. I was stunned. In that simple act, God had broken through the core of the communist system."
That act stuns me, too, but I realize that no system can wall God out just as no tomb can wall God in. Evil had its day on Friday, but Sunday was coming.
A story tells about the great cosmic struggle between the forces of evil and the power of good. The story says that God, as everybody knows, created the heavens and earth and everything in them. He created them by His words because words are power. God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. This happened with everything. God was rightly proud of His work, but especially proud of man and woman which He made. He even breathed life into them.
Now the devil was jealous and angry. One day when God was enjoying the man and woman the devil walked by casually. He slithered up to God and asked Him why he liked those strange human creatures so much. God opened His mouth to speak, and the devil craftily put a bond upon his tongue. God could not speak, not even one word! Since God's creative power was in His words, the sly old devil had bound His power.
The devil laughed at God and then proceeded to have his way with the man and the woman. Eons went by and the devil came back to taunt God. He scoffed at the silent God and mocked Him. God responded to this by holding up one finger.
"One?" asked the devil. "Are you telling me that You want to say just one word?" God nodded. The devil, being both crafty and confident, thought, "I suppose that even God could not do much with just one word. OK." So the devil removed the bond from God's tongue. Then God spoke His one word in a quiet whisper. He spoke it for the man and the woman, and it brought them great joy. It was a word that gathered up all the forgiveness, love, and creativity God had stored up in His heart during His long silence. His one word was "Jesus."
That is what Easter is all about! It reminds me of a very old way of thinking about that day. It goes this way:
God played chess with the devil
The empty tomb is a symbol of hope — the hope that is ours when God says "Checkmate!" It is a hope that comes our way when we live as part of the family of God.

An Engineering Feat that Beat Hurricane Isaac in N.O.
Hurricane Isaac reminded people in the city of New Orleans and around the country how important disaster preparedness is. While the storm was not as powerful as Hurricane Katrina, it still caused major flooding in Plaquemines, St. John's, and St. Tammany Parishes in Louisiana.
Despite the significant regional flooding, the city of New Orleans experienced very little flooding, due in large part to $14 billion worth of levees and pumps built post-Katrina and designed to protect the city from another serious storm -- like Isaac. Isaac's arrival two weeks ago put this new 130-mile system to test for the first time, with good results.
Once again, an investment in pre-disaster preparedness has led to significantly fewer negative impacts during and after the disaster.
What did it take to achieve success with this pre-disaster investment, the city of New Orleans' infrastructural defense system? To find out, we interviewed the pump manufacturer that worked with the Army Corps of Engineers to design and implement the system.
Interview with Dave Angelo, VP of Sales, Pentair – Engineered Flow Technologies Unit
BCLC: Tell us about the pumps you designed for the New Orleans area. Where are they and what is special about them?
Dave Angelo: Pentair custom-designed 11 pumps for the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway West Closure Complex (GIWW), which was designed to protect the city from the storm surge. The station is located at the intersection of the Algiers and Harvey Street canals. The pumps discharge into the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, which leads to the Gulf of Mexico.
Each pump weighs approximately 140,000 pounds, stands about 50 feet tall, and pumps 750,000 gallons of water per minute.
BCLC: How did you work with the Army Corps of Engineers or other government agencies to get the job done?
Angelo: The specification was developed by the Army Corp of Engineers. During the design review process and throughout the project, it was a collaborative effort with the Corp, the contractors, and our project team to ensure we had the best design and solution for the station.
BCLC: What prior experiences prepared your company for designing these pumps?
Angelo: We have over 100 years of experience in designing and manufacturing large pumps. In addition to the GIWW pumps, Pentair has numerous other pumps throughout many of the pump stations in New Orleans along the 22 miles of levees and floodwalls. Pentair has also designed and supplied several flood control pumps over the years to other flood risk areas. (Related: Pentair's Hurricane Katrina response, 2005)
BCLC: How do you go about envisioning and executing something that's never been done before?
Angelo: Since the GIWW is considered the largest flood control pump station in the world, this was a unique challenge due to the sheer size of the station and the pumps required for operation. With such large-scale pumps, the pumps could not be assembled in the Kansas City facility and then shipped to the job site. In the design process for some of the components, we had to consider how to transport those components to the job site where the final assembly would take place. Sub-assemblies for the bowls, for example, were assembled at a local shipyard and then sent by barge to the job site where final assembly was completed.
BCLC: How did the pumps perform in Isaac? Do you anticipate building additional pumps in the area as a result of that storm?
Angelo: The pumps performed extremely well and as expected. There is another station in design in New Orleans that we are bidding on, however, that station was planned prior to Hurricane Isaac.
This is a good example of how businesses are providing innovative solutions to community challenges. For more examples, read BCLC's 2012 publication on The Role of Business in Disaster Response.

It fills me with great pleasure and pride to announce the beginning of the next extension of Shoot The Lobster, Shoot The Lobster Recordings. STLR will function as a record label with a monthly agenda of releases focusing on dance floor music. (Due to the ever expanding nomenclature that evolved from "disco," "house," and "techno" it's fitting to call what will be released on STLR "dance floor" to avoid the headache that arises from attempting to explain the nuances of the three classic genres.)
I am incredibly excited to say that the first release is now available. The first two tracks were produced by me. They are erratic, bass heavy interpretations of 4-on-the-floor. Spackle is like sharp cheddar, and Get Stolen sweats like Monterey Jack in the sun.
The third track, One On All Times (walk track), was produced by Max McFerren. This is what he has to say about it:
I want this track to sound like a Mobile tank yacht with Panorama Bar on the top floor. Like rust under an electron microscope; ethereal and hard at the same time; smoky but not weed. This song is the devils dance. I want it to rattle your bones.
STLR's inaugural release is currently available for digital download at
12" LPs of the recordings, pressed on 150g vinyl, are forthcoming.
Please join us at Shoot The Lobster this Wednesday, August 15, from 6 – 9 pm for the announcement reception.
-Grayson Revoir

Mango Butter Soap with Shea & Cocoa Butters, Vitamin C
Heritage: The indigenous people of the tropical rainforest have long used Mango Butter to moisturize, restore suppleness and protect the skin against environmental stressors. The seed of the mango fruit, first cultivated on the Indian subcontinent and in eastern Asia for more than 4000 years ago, is revered for its moisturizing benefits. Mango Butter is rich in Vitamin E, carotenoids and antioxidants which help promote health skin.
Nubian Heritage's Mango Butter Soap is an ultra-moisturizing, non-irritating cleanser of pure vegetables butters and essential oils. Mango butter naturally seal in moisture without clogging pores, Cocoa and Shea Butters heal, and improve the elasticity of damaged skin.
Humble Beginnings
Nubian Heritage is the brainchild of two New York street vendors. In 1992, fresh out of college and without jobs, Rich and Nyema embarked on a mission to produce luxurious natural products from traditional African recipes with organic and fair trade ingredients. Today Nubian Heritage offers hundreds of culturally authentic natural products inspired by global ancient healing philosophies. Although Nubian Heritage products are no longer made in bath tubs, little else has changed; the company still makes its products itself, still uses fair trade and organic ingredients and still invests in community commerce.
