Designing for the urban age
Cities are like organized religion: richly layered, often paradoxical and uniquely qualified to bring out the best and worst in humankind. A new book edited by Ricky Burdett and Deyan Sudjic, titled The Endless City (Phaidon), conveys the oft-contradictory nature of cities, including their innate ability to both quell and incite social and political conflict.
At least, that's the salutary subtext of the book. Its more arrant objective is to lend fire-and-brimstone urgency to the sharp rise in the world's urban population within the past century. Even the book's blazing orange cover, inscribed with eye-popping statistics (75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050!) is used to convey the apocalyptic immediacy of its appeal . . .

Joe of southington, writes:
Looking to buy a King Size (Latex or Memory Foam) mattress & box spring. My wife has back surgery issues and I work odd night shift hours. We need a mattress that minimizes "jostling" as much as possible when I move around or get up while she's sleeping.
Leaning toward the latex and would like your thoughts. ALSO, regarding the box spring, we find one that swears by wood construction and another that swears by steel frame. Which answer is best?
Hi Joe. Memory foam is a temperature sensitive material. Being so, it softens as it warms. After a couple of hours in bed, the mattress will soften from your body's heat and not feel the same as it did in the store. It also reflects that heat back to you. The slow recovery is a problem when trying to change position. The deeper the dent, the longer it takes to recover. What happens is that you wake up, having to wait so long. There are numerous complaints about noxious odors. Many people find the whole experience totally intolerable. Some people are good with it.
Latex, on the other hand, is much older technology. Latex mattresses have been available since the 1920s and have always been considered the best mattresses available. "Natural" latex, being called so, give the impression that it's natural. And while it's made from the sap of the rubber tree, chemicals are used to process it. The allergens, commonly associated with latex, are removed in the processing. In synthetic latex, they were never there. Both types perform equally well. Synthetic latex was developed for greater consistancy of manufacture and is now, "State-of-the-Art".
Latex is the coolest of all the foams and is not temperature sensitive. It doesn't change feel because of body heat or electric blankets and mattress pads. Being much more buoyant than memory foam, it's very easy to change position. The difference in longevity, between latex and memory foam is dramatic, with latex being much more durable.
Get the boxspring that comes with the mattress you're buying. It'll be an issue, should you ever need service.

I wasn't entirely in love with this cream. It was nice and moisturizing, but the spf made my skin itchy and oily. I hated wearing makeup over it because it caused my makeup to move.
Oh how I really DID NOT want to love this product because of the price....but I do. I went to Sephora after returning some other daily moisturizers w/ sunscreen that were just not working for me and got a weeks sample. It seriously made my skin look better within 2 days and my makeup looked flawless over it. I just can't fork out $90 for my daily ss. If price isn't a concern, I would highly recommend.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This product gets top marks. It has a wonderful texture and goes on smoothly. It's got SPF 20 and several anti-oxidants, all the stuff I want for a daytime product. Makeup goes on nicely on top. And it's got a pump, which controls the amount and keeps out any germs that might be on my fingers. No icky smell. The only issue is price, and I try to stock up when Ulta has their 20% off sales.
Updated 1/14/13--Discontinued. Sigh.

Eye Physiology
Name: Charlotte Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
I do Physics A level and in my last exam it was really annoying because one of the questions was something that I've always wanted to know but never got around to finding out. You know when you look at a star in the sky or those glowing stars that you stick on your bedroom ceiling? Well, why is it that they don't look as bright when you look directly at them, but do when you look slightly to the side?
_Hello Charlotte
The answer is to do with the biology of the eye. There are two types of receptor cells in the eye and each has strengths and weaknesses:
1. Rod cells - only see black and white but are very sensitive (ie will pick up very small amounts of light)
2. Cone cells - see color but are not as sensitive as rod cells.
At the point in the back of your eye (the retina) where your eye focuses the light when you are looking directly at something there is an area called the fovea. In the fovea the cells are very densely packed so that we can see really well and because color is important to us the cells are predominantly cone cells and only a very few rod cells. The problem with this is that when the light is dim - the cone cells in the fovea are actually really bad at picking up anything at all.
Outside the fovea there are more rod cells. Consequently in low light you are better off not looking directly at an object because then the light will fall on the (predominantly) rod cells outside the fovea rather than the (predominantly) cone cells inside the fovea.
Hope you did OK in your exam anyway.
Cameron Millsom
That's not physics, that's biology. The reason is that when you look at something, its image falls on a region of your retina called the fovea. In the fovea, there are no rod cells, only cones. Cone cells give color recognition and better resolution than rod cells, but they aren't as sensitive to light as the black-and-white only rod cells. When you look slightly to the side, your more sensitive rod cells can detect the starlight, so you can see it better.
Richard E. Barrans Jr., Ph.D.
Your retina has two types of sensory receptors: rods and cones. The cones are for color vision and operate best during the day when light is shining. They are located in the middle of your retina because most of what you need to see is directly in front of you. At night, the rods allow you to see in the dark, or to see shades of gray and black. They are located at the periphery of your retina. At night, when you try to see something in the dark, if you look directly at it, the cones are not stimulated in the dark. If you look to the side, or in your peripheral vision, the rods are stimulated and you can see the object more clearly.

The story of St. Thomas the Apostle, as recounted in the Bible, is one of a gradual acceptance of Jesus as the son of god. Scripture says Thomas only became a true believer in Jesus Christ after he put his hand into Jesus' side after the resurrection. Even today, many lifelong Catholics still refer to him as "doubting Thomas."
In many ways, St. Thomas the Apostle seems an unlikely name for the Catholic church in northwest Naperville. Strong faith and a generous spirit of outreach to the community are the hallmark of St. Thomas, according to the Rev. Don McLaughlin.
"(The anniversary theme), I am St. Thomas … Celebrating 30 Years, recognizes all that the faith community has been, is, and pledges to be as it continues to love and strive to serve its neighbors near and far," McLaughlin says.
This summer begins a yearlong celebration of the church's 30th anniversary. The congregation kicked the year off in June with John Angotti, a Christian rock musician, leading musical prayers during a series of Masses. The celebration will continue through 2015, but it will be "low-key," according to Associate Pastor Bob Colaresi.
"If God dwells within us, why do we ask others to recognize the goodness we were given to share?" he said.
St. Thomas the Apostle was founded June 18, 1984. Services at the time were conducted for about 300 members at Thayer Hill Middle School. Thirty years later, All Saints Catholic Academy educates children from pre-kindergarten through fifth grades. St. Thomas is one of three area parishes that feed into the private school.
The current church structure was dedicated Sept. 13, 1986. Membership is officially more than 3,600 households in DuPage County, according to Colaresi. He says about 400 people from those families regularly attend Sunday Mass. When they enter the church, they are met by volunteer "hosts."
Dorothy Paperiello is one of those greeters with a warm smile and a "hello." Paperiello joined St. Thomas about two and a half years ago. She echoes both pastors' emphasis on the welcoming spirit at St. Thomas.
"I think it's nice. We've had a succession of very active pastors. The first pastor set us on the right track," Paperiello says.
St. Thomas is a sister parish with St. Nicholas in Aurora, and has an ongoing relationship with 20 churches in Haiti. The church provides financial support along with more practical items, like clothes and food.
"Members participate In Habitat for Humanity, and a variety of mission trips as well," Colaresi says.
The church's garden pantry is another branch of its community outreach. Anne Schultz, outreach minister at St. Thomas, says many church volunteers have participated in planting and distributing fresh produce over the years. All produce is grown on site, according to Lorna Wilder, who facilitates the project. The fruits of their labor are tomatoes, green beans, lettuce, kale, peppers, onions and more. Volunteers add the fresh produce to a client's regular weekly supply of groceries.
Rick Koeneman is relatively new to St. Thomas. He lends his business acumen to community members looking for jobs. Once a month, he and other parishioners meet with support from DuPage Connect and Career Connect Midwest. The goal, according to Koeneman, is to help people apply for jobs, prepare for interviews or meet with leaders in business and industry to make it easier for them to find employment.
"Once a month a guest speaker is invited to speak about a more specific topic," Koeneman adds.
Maria Carino also says she and her husband chose St. Thomas because of its reputation for community service and hospitality.
"I like it. There was no pressure to join. If you like it, you stay."

Bulgaria-based design studio Dizarh presents designs for a WWII Museum in Poland, explaining the concept thus:
"The idea for a Museum of the Second World War embodies the threads of life, occupation, war, wounds and death. The interweaving and clash of these key threads generates spaces and creates trends and focuses.
The spirit of oppression and decay is enclosed inside the Museum space, surrounded by thick walls - a kind of a shield which holds attacks and repressions back. This flesh is at points symbolically cut through by a passing trench, by open wounds after enemy strikes, by the gashes that are in the limelight of surfaces.
The interweaving of the current exhibitions inside with the surrounding landscape and existing architecture underlies the main idea of this modern museum which will become a member of Gdansk's special buildings, alongside the Church and the City Hall."

Homing and Ducks
Name: Roxanne H. Status: other Age: 30s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 1999-2001
If you have ducks at your home and you take them somewhere else say near a river or lake to be with other ducks do they somehow find their way back to where they originally started from either before or after flying south. We have heard from someone that no matter where we take them that they will end up back at our house.
Maybe, maybe not. Ducks relocated to a good habitat may become well adjusted to that place and return there after migration. Migrant birds do tend to return to the area where they were hatched but not always.

I've read a lot of comments in this forum about 'pre composting' food, as in 'store it in a bucket and let it rot for a couple of weeks before feeding it to the worms. I was wondering if you guys get bugs and stuff in it. Will it smell?
My bin is new and the worms are not up to speed with the eating and I end up throwing away the little kitchen scrap we have. The freezer has 3 large containers already and my boyfriend will soon be complaining I'm sure. lol I've ordered a pound of worms to add to the bin so I expect the consumption to be increasing. However, pre composting sounds like a good idea. Afterall, that process has to happen anyways before the worms can eat the food anyways. Is that how it works? Thanks! Sandra |
Follow-Up Postings:
Throwing food in a bucket to let it rot is not the same as pre-composting. Composting requires airflow. If you just throw food in a bucket to let it rot, I would imagine that it would stink and attract bugs. If, on the other hand, it is composted, it should not stink, though it may still attract bugs, and the worms will go bonkers over it. It takes a while for a new bin to get established. What you are waiting for is a good crop of microbes to take over the bin. Feeding compost can only help. Feeding stinky food that has been left to rot may not help, since that isn't the type of microbes you want in the bin. The bottom line is that the worms can't eat the food until it is mushy, and the won't be interested until it is loaded with microbes. Leaving food out for a day or two to start decomposing might help, or you might just as well put it in the worn bin to start decomposing. |
If you really feel a need to precompost, use a 5 gallon bucket. Add lots of cardboard, egg carton, or leaves. It will only get the process started. You might just have to throw out the scraps until the bin becomes more active. If you have a garden to put them in, you could just bury them. They'll compost by next spring. If an animal digs them up, oh well. If you know someone else with a compost bin, donate them to that person and later ask for some half finished compost to add to your worm bin. The worms go nuts for it. |

You don't want a stinky anaerobic mush, so aeration and a mixture of material is necessary. Throw in some shredded newspaper or brown leaves along with the kitchen scraps. The advantage for me personally in letting the scraps start to rot outside the worm bin is that I can put it in partial sun. That speeds the decaying process up a bit. My worm bin is in a dark place. Of course scraps will eventually decompose there also - just a little slower. As temps cool down it might be significantly slower. None of these preliminary steps (freezing, chopping food, pre-composting, etc.) are necessary to vermicomposting. It just speeds things up. I'm guessing some of the preliminaries can also improve the consistency of the compost and make harvesting easier, but I won't be able to verify that until I see my first harvest with this system. |

That's great information. I never thought about the relationship between composting and air flow. It totally makes sense! I wish my worms would hurry up and do their thing. This patience thing is getting to me. lol Thanks! Sandra |

I had never heard of AV until today when I was shopping for some indoor plants and bought one. I read about it after I got home before I potted it. Ended up using an equal mix of peat, miracle gro potting soil, and cactus mix.
Well, 2 hours after putting it on my kitchen counter by my sink, a baking sheet that was in my strainer fell over and chopped off 2 leaves! Yeah, great timing for that... So now it is a little lopsided because it's missing 2 big leaves. They were taken off just below the leaves, so I have 2 stems sticking out with no leaves. What should I do? Trim them down to the soil line? Leave them? Will it grow back in that area to even it out? |

Hi Frank, Violets grow symetrically like the spokes on a bicycle around a single central stem. Each row generally has 3 leaves which overlap the ones beneath it. Once a leaf has died or broken it is advisable to remove the entire stem either by breaking it off or cutting it off leaving no nub on the stem. So, depending on where the leaves broke off you may have to remove one or four to keep the crown symetrical. Put the plant somewhere so that you can see it from the top. You might try slipping a couple pieces of paper over some of the lower leaves to find the best symetrical leaf pattern. Once you have decided that the plant looks good, remove the leaves you covered up and if it makes a long neck on the stem, repot it and sink the plant lower in the pot. Pot size is important, the diameter of the pot should be 1/3 the diameter of the plant. If the crown measures 9 inches it should be put into a 3 inch pot. If you email me I will send you some sheets on care and culture of av's. I generally hand them out to people when I speak to groups on violets. Good luck with your violet. I must warn you though that once you start it can become an addiction. Over 25 years ago I felt sorry for 2 av's in a local supermarket. Since then my collection grew to over 200 but is now down to a few over 100. Fred in NJ |
The heavy mix you've got it planted in (peat, miracle gro potting soil, & cactus mix) will more than likely do MUCH more harm than the couple leaves that were chopped off. A lighter mix would be much healthier... Try 1 part peat, 1 part vermiculite, and one part perlite. :-) |
Obviously i'm new at this ... ! Ok, so I've decided to scrap this plant, in a way. I'm going to use it to propagate new ones from leaf cuttings, instead of just throwing in the towel completely. It will give me a chance to do that for once, as i have yet to do so. |
- Posted by fred_hill 6 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jun 23, 08 at 8:13
Frank, Don't toss out the plant, just repot it after you remove leaves. Fred in NJ |
I'm with fred hill. Don't toss the plant out. Repotting and watching it grow back into a symmetrical plant will be just as rewarding as planting leaves and having babies. Your new to this so experience every part of it you can. Carrie |
It's funny you all said that, because I just did that actually and was going to come on here and ask if it'd work! I repotted it after trimming it down to only 4 leaves. I removed all the blooms except for one tiny stem that had no open blooms and it was shorter than the leaves. I also cut off some of the roots to make up for getting rid of almost all the leaves... hopefully that was the right thing to do. I potted it in a dixie cut in a potting soil/perlite/vermiculite mix. How does that sound? Do I just treat it like a normal AV from now on? |
also, one other quick question. for my potted cuttings, i put vermiculite as a base with perlite on top... didn't really mix them together. is that fine ? or should I mix them together when I get home? |
- Posted by fred_hill 6 (email@example.com) on Tue, Jun 24, 08 at 9:20
Hi Frank, I start all my lealves and suckers in my light soil mix. If the mix you used is 1-1-1 then you should have no problem. Other than that what you did with the old plant seems fine. I would add however that when you restart a crown that you scrape the neck down to remove any calouses or nubs so that root development will be easier. Fred in NJ |

Hi again,
I'm still developing my first plugin and I need to log some messages during execution, but I couldn't figure out if there's a logging function/module in Vanilla. I see there's a gdn_log table, but, in my installation, it's always empty no matter what happens. Should I configure/install something in particular? Thanks.
ThankFrank - Social shopping made easy! | My shop | About Me | VanillaSkins.com - The best shop for Vanilla Forums themes
have a look at dashboard/class.logmodel.php
it is used for logging with Insert
* @param string $Operation The operation being performed. This is usually one of:
* - Delete: The record has been deleted.
* - Edit: The record has been edited.
* - Spam: The record has been marked spam.
* - Moderate: The record requires moderation.
* @param string $RecordType The type of record being logged. This usually correspond to the tablename of the record.
* @param array $Data The record data.
* - If you are logging just one row then pass the row as an array.
* - You can pass an additional _New element to tell the logger what the new data is.
* @return int The log id.
So it is generally used for logging operations on user content, and specifically posts I you want to do somethign different I suggest, creating your own.
for debug error logging turn it on in config
$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['LogEnabled'] = TRUE;
$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['LogFile'] = 'log/error_log';
make sure you have file permissions set for /log. You can use
LogMessage(__FILE__,__LINE__,'Object','Method', 'Message');
grep is your friend.
Thanks x00. I'll probably implement my own solution, as I'd like to have error logs saved into the database.
@x00 Thanks. My solution will allow to log all sort of messages, not only exceptions (if that is what you meant by "catching"). If it comes out as something usable, I might try to post it as a plugin.

Directed and co-written by Nenad Cicin-Sain, this atmospheric mystery tells the story of a young painter named Daniel (Bentley), who struggles to support his wife and young son as he attempts to make a name for himself in the art world. When his friend Eric (Corey Stoll, Midnight in Paris) arranges a meeting with Warner Dax (Langella), a peculiar patron of the arts, Daniel becomes hopeful for his future.
However, when Dax begins requiring Daniel to perform some strange tasks, like following a young woman (Sarah Paulson, Fairhaven) and her daughter, the situation takes a decidedly dark turn.

Sun-hatched under a rock on Vancouver Island, Miranda Nelson never went to kindergarten; ergo she missed out on learning important life lessons like how to share.
Thrust ass backwards into a journalism career at age 20, Nelson writes about scintillating topics including East Van's garbage and graffiti situation, transit, politics, feminism, inequality, Rob Ford, marijuana, and what can only be charitably described as "the absurd".
Nelson spends her non-journalism-related time writing Hugh Laurie fan fiction, yelling at thoughtless people on public transit, leaving parties without saying farewell, attempting to bioengineer money trees, and contemplating where unicorns come from. (Like, did a narwhal have sex with a horse? What gives?) She's also fond of recycling pop culture tropes into her writing and passing them off as new and original jokes.
Sometimes she reads books and drinks beer.

The most important thing is size. The stones/gravel/pebbles/grit should be close to 1/8 inch. If you can screen out stuff that's 1/4 inch or bigger and the stuff that passes through an insect screen, and still have a reasonable amount left, you're good to go. |

Hi Stefano, Like Ohiofem stated, the size is what's important. I was talking with Al recently about how to sift pea gravel because I can't find grit. Here's a quote from out emails.. " you could keep/use what passes a 3/16" screen but doesn't pass an 1/8" screen." Now, I hope some of this helps. JoJo |
Thanks for the help. fractional measurements in inches are so counterintuitive. hard to imagine what 13/64 is like and compare without mental calculations! 1/8" is almost 3.5 mm think that gravel is more or less like that. some could be larger, Why is it so important to screen out the larger ones? couln't be an approximation? If a mix is not exaclty the same wouldn't just be sufficient to adjust the watering accordingly? I also found fine bark at Gowanus nursery but is fine like a slightly coarse soil. Is that way too fine? At HD I found chunkier pine bark. stefano |
If you have 1 ingredient that varies significantly in size from the others, that ingredient tends to separate from the mix and you're left with a mix that retains the physical properties of the 2 more similar-size components. We want to keep the size range of the particles from just slightly under 1/8" (because that's where the PWT disappears) to about 3/16". The bark can be a little larger to allow for break-down over time. As particle size increases, the soils ability to hold sufficient water decreases. Also, if the bark and grit fractions are large, the Turface tends to settle to the bottom and hold too much water there, so you can see why size is important. I would skip any marble gravel in the gritty mix because of its high Ca content. Al |
Tapla thanks for the reply. Would the pea gravel be OK? As I said I found fine bark at the Gowanus Nursery as suggested on the thread where to find the materials for the gritty mix. It does not look like wood chips. Could I mix just Napa Floor-Dry XXX 8822, some bark and some Miracle Grow orchid mix (it is a mix of some peat moss and fine bark, not a real orchid mix but way chunkier than potting soil) and / or perlite? I want to repot my plants on a grittier mix but I can't get huge bags or travel hours. I live in Brooklyn NY. Not much variety in gardening supplies and I live in an apt. I put some plants on the roof and fire escape in the spring / summer/ part fall. If I can't get the perfect gritty mix I'd like at least have a better mix of what comes prepackaged. I grow hot peppers (habaneros), ficus, mangos, lychee from seed. Have coffee plants, some tropical aroids. S |
I saw that at the petstore they have silica based gravel and another called spectrastone. They are for fresh water aquariums and the size is right. $3 for 5 pounds. Would that work? stefano |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Dalia!
Facts about Dalia
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tortoiseshell
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Dalia's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Dalia is a 4 month old Tortoiseshell (Tortie). She is a little shy at first and depends on her brother Dax to make sure the situation is ok. She is playful and loves the feather wand and the mylar balls. She is bonded with her brother Dax, but has started to come out of her shell a lot more so we feel she would do fine without him. She would need to have another kitty friend though. Dalia is good with other cats, older mature dogs and older children. She is a very sweet mellow kitty.
Other Pets at AZ Furry Friends Rescue Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Dalia, a Phoenix Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

I've sat on the boards of 30 non-profit organizations over the last 30 years, and the Placer SPCA is the best run non-profit organization with which I've been associated. All of their staff members are utterly dedicated to the organization's mission, and the staff and the volunteers do an incredible job every day maximizing the resources provided to them to the benefit of companion animals that come into their care. I don't know if I've seen a more dedicated group of people from top to bottom associated with a non-profit.
More feedback
Will you volunteer or donate to this organization beyond what is required of board members?
How much of an impact do you think this organization has?
Will you tell others about this organization?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

Here we are, and I must say what a splendid morni....
Oh, hang on... what a rather dismal day it has turned out to be. Someone, somewhere is stealing our weather and replacing it with this... well, whatever it is. Of course, this being the Untied Kingdom, the weather is usually cold, damp and drizzly with a wind that seemingly comes from all directions at once, but this weather isn't good enough even for that.
Of course, this should be the cue for some sort of conspiracy theory, but – as we know – the only thing that is ever true about conspiracy theories is that the people who believe in them are... well, wrong. The human race is quite simply not competent – or organised enough – to keep up something as complex as a conspiracy before someone, somewhere, decides they can't be arsed and the whole thing tumbles to the ground in disarray and mutual recriminations.
Of course, that is exactly what they want you to think.
Do you think it is really some sort of strange co-incidence that the only people who seem to believe in conspiracy theories are sad, lonely, paranoid obsessive losers?
That is what they want you to think.
They want you to dismiss all these conspiracy theories as paranoid lunacy and to deride or pity those that keep spouting the obvious bollocks, while they get on with their real aim – their project of world domination.
The only question is: just who are they?
But we know exactly who they are, which explains just why they are changing the climate of this country to more resemble that of Antarctica.

Glad you like them, they are photoshoped though. |
Does it say they're photo-shopped? JoanMN |
I don't think there were photo-shopped other than to adjust the color. I recall seeing similar high-speed photos several years ago. The color was from lighitng effects, in some cases, light was bounced off brightly colored backgrounds. Drops of liquid were dropped into calm pools of the same or diffetent liquids. Similar experiments have been done with milk as the working fluid. Earlier experiments were high speed movies. The exposure time per frame was in the vicinity of 1/1000 sec, although nice frames can be made at slower speeds. The more viscous the fluid, the slower the exposure can be. The falling droplets are tricky to achieve. Water in free fall assumes a sperical shape, but that shape will be distorted in actual practice, by air currents and oscillation of the globule itself. The drops have to be carefully made and the flow must be consistent to achieve proper timing of the photo exposure. Fantastic shapes occur in the water spout immediately following a drop's impact with a fluid or surface. A famous photo with milk displays a crown. One interesting series of shots were made with the subject in a darkened room with the sole source of light being s strobe light. The frequency of the strobe was adjustable and the duration of each flash was very short. These photographic techniques have been used to study fluid dynamics. The actual still photo had exposure times greater than the flash frequency, thus multiple images were formed on the film. |

Greasy Luck! The Whaling World of the Charles W. Morgan
In celebration of the relaunching of the last surviving wooden whaleship, Lyman Allyn presents Greasy Luck! The Whaling World of the Charles W. Morgan.
The exhibition, which runs from September 21 through June 8, 2014, will look at how whaling—its myths and reality, risk and reward—left its mark on Connecticut and American identity.
In the 1800s, friends and family gathered on the docks to wish "greasy luck" for a successful voyage to departing whaleships.
To most people, whales were mysterious creatures. Yet whaling was big business.
The thousands of barrels of oil the whalers brought home made ports like New London and Mystic some of the wealthiest places in the young nation, supporting a wide array of dockside occupations.
E.V.Day: Snap!
he Glass House is pleased to announce its first site-specific exhibition: SNAP! by E.V. Day. Conceived for the building known as Da Monsta - designed by Philip Johnson in 1995 as a visitor center and now a gallery - SNAP! interprets the pavilion's peculiar geometry and atmosphere both inside and out. Day has roped the exterior of Da Monsta with massive climbing webs and populated the interior with an ensemble of recent sculpture that tease out the noir qualities of Johnson's late work.

A recent study, published in the journal Human Communication Research, warns parents not to share their previous drug use with their children. The evidence showed that children whose parents did not disclose drug use, but did deliver a strong antidrug message, were much more likely to develop anti-drug attitudes of their own. However, parents who shared their own past drug use, even if it was on the negative side, the personal story negates anti-drug attitudes.
"I think parents are expecting that if they share their experiences this can be used as a teachable moment," said the study's lead author Jennifer Kam, an assistant professor of communication at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. "But even when the parents say they regretted using drugs, the fact that the parents used them at all undermines the negative point they're trying to make."
Experts continue to say that parents need to talk to their kids. Sometimes, kids may get the wrong message, but positive actions and conversations with kids are important.
How do you talk with your kids about drug use?

Awesome Product

About Me Budget Shopper
Comments about Raindrop Bar Stool Cushions:
The color was exact to the picture and a perfect fit for my bar stools. I purchased 4 to go on top of some wooden bar stools I just repainted from a maple wood to a satin black and they accent the stools very nicely. They are worth the money because they are thick and comfortable, and they fit around the surface of the chairs perfectly.
Great purchase

I bought these barstool covers for use on the stools at my kitchen island. They are so nice looking. The color is perfect, they are comfortable, they fit perfectly on the stool, and the backing and elastic edging keep the cushions from moving around. I am delighted with this purchase and feel that the price was very reasonable.
