US 7277806 B2 Abstract A method for removing the air wave effect from offshore frequency domain controlled source electromagnetic survey data. The region of interest is modeled with (111) and without (113) a top air layer. The electromagnetic field due to the source is computed at the survey receiver positions for each source position for both models. The difference between the fields computed (116) from the two models is the air wave effect, which is then subtracted (117) from the field data for the corresponding source-receiver geometry.
Claims(5) 1. A method for removing the air wave effect from frequency domain controlled source electromagnetic survey data collected from a sea-covered region, comprising the steps of:
(a) constructing a first model of the region having from top to bottom an air layer, a sea-water layer, and a sea bottom layer, said model reflecting known bathymetry and conductivities;
(b) computing the electromagnetic fields due to the source at all source and receiver locations in the survey, assuming the first model;
(c) constructing a second model of the region by replacing the air layer in the first model with sea-water, and then computing the electromagnetic fields for the second model at the same source and receiver locations;
(d) normalizing receiver and source parameters between the computed fields and the survey data;
(e) computing the air wave effect by subtracting the field produced by the second model from the field produced by the first model at each receiver location for each source location; and
(f) subtracting the computed air wave effect from the actual survey data at each receiver location for each source location.

Description This application is the National Stage of International Application No. PCT/US2004/005024, filed Feb. 20, 2004, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/482,681, filed Jun. 26, 2003. This invention relates to the field of geophysical prospecting and, more particularly, to controlled-source electromagnetic survey for hydrocarbons. Specifically, the invention is a method for removing the air wave effect encountered in such data when the data are obtained in the frequency domain. Offshore controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) geophysical surveys use man-made electric and magnetic sources to generate electromagnetic fields to excite the earth and deploy instruments/receivers in the ocean, on the seafloor and inside boreholes to measure electric and magnetic fields. The electromagnetic signals recorded by receivers consist of electromagnetic fields 21, 22 and 23 that travel through the earth 33, seawater 32, and air 31, respectively, as illustrated in Air wave interference is a problem when measurements are made in the frequency domain, i.e., when the source continues to transmit its signals while data are being collected at the receivers. The simplest source signal is a sinusoidal signal with a selected frequency. For operational efficiency, multiple frequencies can be transmitted at the same time in the form of a complex waveform, such as a square wave. A complement to the frequency domain CSEM is the time domain CSEM. In time domain CSEM, the source is turned on and then turned off after a desired wave form is transmitted (for example, a pulse, a boxcar, or a step function). The air wave may not be a problem in time domain CSEM because the air wave will be recorded at an earlier time, separated from target signals. However, advantages offered by frequency domain CSEM in more sophisticated modeling and inversion software, better understood results, and higher-quality data make frequency domain CSEM used more widely in geophysical surveys than time domain CSEM. As persons skilled in the art will understand, notwithstanding the preceding observations, all CSEM data are actually obtained in the time domain, i.e., they are collected by a recording device as a more or less continuous stream of numbers, with the independent variable being time. What distinguish frequency domain CSEM are the way the experiment is conducted (continuous source) and the methods used to analyze and interpret the data whereby the data are decomposed into individual frequency components, e.g., Fourier analysis. The air wave effect can be easily illustrated using a simple one-dimensional (1D) layered model. As shown in Large separation between the 1D model's curves 41 and 43 and its background curves 42 and 44 indicates that the signal from the resistive layer buried 1.0 km below the seafloor is significant when the source-receiver separation is larger than �2 or 3 km. (The lack of separation between the model and background curves for small source-receiver spacing is due to the correspondingly low attenuation of the water path 22 and the seafloor path 21. Contribution from those two signals dominates the received signal for receivers with small offset (source-receiver separation), even with the target layer in the model.) When the seawater depth is decreased to 1.0 km ( Air wave contribution was investigated by Chave and Cox in their theoretical numerical model study for offshore CESM exploration with an horizontal electric dipole source (A. D. Chave and C. S. Cox, J. Geophys. Res. 87, 5327-5338 (1982)). Chave and Cox realized that the effect of seawater depth would be important at large source-receiver separations, low frequencies, or in relatively shallow water. They pointed out that the effect can be incorporated into the theory if both water depth and source location are accurately determined, but they did not disclose any method to compute the effect or remove it from CSEM data. Eidesmo, et al., in the First Break article cited previously, not only described the features of the effect of the air wave on the amplitude and phase but also observed that the range at which the air wave dominates the is response, and information on seabed resistivity is lost, increases with decreasing frequency and water depth. The effect of the air wave can therefore be minimized by choosing appropriate transmission frequencies, and by targeting surveys on prospects in deep water and in which the target is at a relatively shallow depth below the seabed. However, the tactics of working outside of the air wave dominant range by carefully choosing transmission frequency and survey prospects cannot be used for prospects where the air wave effect is unavoidable for frequencies which can excite targets to generate recordable signals. In a theoretical study of electromagnetic investigation of the sea floor using a vertical magnetic dipole (VMD), Coggon and Morrison concluded that, with a poorly conducting seabed, the total horizontal magnetic fields result from energy propagating in two main ways: through the bottom (the seabed) and through the air just above the sea surface. They also computed the air contribution and compared it with the actual effect of the sea/air interface alone to demonstrate that total out-of-phase magnetic field response is approximately the simple sum of air and bottom path contributions (J. H. Coggon and H. F. Morrison, Geophysics 35, 476-489 (1970)). However, this air wave contribution computation is performed primarily to verify the concept of two main energy propagating pathways, not to enhance the target signal by removing the air wave effect from the measured data as the invention does. The authors' conclusion about what use to make of their research is summed up in the quotation, �in practice it may often be desirable to operate with D/R above this minimum so that variations in sea depth can be neglected.� D is water depth and R is source-receiver separation. Thus, like Eidesmo et al., Coggon and Morrison teach to avoid conditions such as shallow water depth or large source-receiver separations that tend to make air waves a serious noise source in CSEM data. Accordingly, there is a need for a reliable method for removing the air wave effect from frequency domain CSEM data in applications where such noise is unavoidable. The present invention satisfies this need. In one embodiment, the present invention is a method for removing the air wave effect from offshore frequency domain controlled source electromagnetic survey data, which comprises the steps of (a) constructing a model of the region having a top air layer, a middle sea water layer, and a bottom earth layer, with the model reflecting known bathymetry of the region and known conductivities of the air, seawater and earth; (b) using the model to compute the electromagnetic field at all receiver locations for each source location; (c) replacing the air layer in the model with more sea water to create a no-air model; (d) computing the fields for the same source-receiver geometries for the no-air model; (e) normalizing receiver and source parameters between the two computed responses and the survey data; (f) computing the air wave effect by subtracting the no-air field from the corresponding field from the model with air; and (g) correcting the field data by subtracting the computed air wave effect at each receiver location for each source location. The present invention and its advantages will be better understood by referring to the following detailed description and the attached drawings in which: The invention will be described in connection with its preferred embodiments. However, to the extent that the following detailed description is specific to a particular embodiment or a particular use of the invention, this is intended to be illustrative only, and is not to be construed as limiting the is scope of the invention. On the contrary, it is intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalents that may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined by the appended claims. The present invention is a method for removing the air wave effect from offshore frequency domain CSEM data. It requires the following input information to be measured, calculated or otherwise known or estimated: a. computation of the electromagnetic fields for a given model and each prescribed source and receiver geometry; b. measurement of the bathymetry of the survey area; c. measurement of the seawater conductivity profile of the survey area; d. measurement of (or otherwise obtaining) the seafloor conductivity of the survey area; e. measurement of the amplitude and phase of electrical current emitted by one or more sources, at each prescribed position; f. measurement of the electromagnetic signals at one or more multicomponent receivers that are located at fixed prescribed positions; g. measurement of the position of the electromagnetic receivers at each of the prescribed positions; and h. measurement of the position of sources (the ends or/and current wireline) at each of the prescribed positions. In preferred embodiments of the present invention, source and receiver positions and orientations are measured using such techniques as super-short baseline (SSBL) acoustic methods, global positioning system (GPS), magnetic compass, inertial navigation, among other techniques known in the positioning and navigation art. For field data with the air wave effect (FDWA), the basic steps of the present inventive method are as follows (the reference numbers refer to the flow chart of A person skilled in the art will recognize that steps 112 and 114 involve solving Maxwell's equations for the specific source and receiver locations and the given model parameters, and with the continuous source waveform used to collect the data in the frequency domain mode of operation. Closed-form analytical solutions are available for a one-dimensional model excited by dipole sources. (J. A. Kong, Electromagnetic Wave Theory, 2nd Ed., 312-321, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (1990)) Analytic solutions do not exist for a two-dimensional or three-dimensional model except for certain simple geometries such as spheres and cylinders, where conductivity boundaries correspond to a constant-coordinate surface. Therefore, numerical methods are employed for multi-dimensional models. (G. W. Hohmann, in Electromagnetic Methods in Applied Geophysics 1, 313-363, Society of Exploration Geophysicists (1988)). The CSEM source may, without limitation, be of one of the following types, or combinations thereof: (1) an horizontal electric dipole; (2) a vertical electric dipole; (3) an horizontal magnetic dipole; and (4) a vertical magnetic dipole. Persons skilled in the art will understand that the term dipole is not used here in the strictest sense in which it refers to an infinitesimal source. The source can be towed at any depth or be stationary in the water or on the seafloor. Stationary sources give more accurate measurements, but result in low efficiency in acquiring data. Typically, the source is towed 20-80 m above the seafloor, at a speed of 1-4 knots. Such slower speeds are favored for better source position and negligible distortion of source waveform due to source movement, e.g., the Doppler effect. As in the case of the source, the receivers may be towed, stationary on the seafloor, or inside boreholes. Stationary receivers will have low motion noise and more accurate position. The accuracy of the results from the present invention will depend on how well the background models (MWA and MNA) represent the actual electric conductivity structures below the seafloor in the survey region. The conductivities below the seafloor can be obtained by known methods including (a) well logs; (b) magnetotelluric measurement; or (c) inversion results from the collected CSEM data. In the above-described manner, the present invention effectively removes the air wave effect and enhances the target signal. The invention was tested with synthetic data. Following are results from two test models. All of the following examples assume a unit-strength transmitter generating radiation at a frequency of 0.25 Hertz. This value is chosen for illustrative purposes only and, as those skilled in the art will understand, in no way limits the present invention. The 1-D model shown in The foregoing description is directed to particular embodiments of the present invention for the purpose of illustrating it. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art, that many modifications and variations to the embodiments described herein are possible. For example, the invention is discussed using an horizontal electric dipole as the example electromagnetic source; however, the invention is equally applicable to any CSEM source, for example a vertical magnetic dipole. Also, the invention works in fresh water as well as salt water, and the word sea should be interpreted accordingly. All such modifications and variations are intended to be within the scope of the present invention, as defined in the appended claims. Patent Citations

BEIJING (AFP) - China on Tuesday ruled out a meeting between President Xi Jinping and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the opening ceremony for the Sochi Winter Olympics, as a row between the Asian giants rumbles on.
Beijing confirmed Monday that Mr Xi would attend the Games, which open on Feb 7, while reports in Japan said last week that Mr Abe was planning to go, although no details have been confirmed.
"The Chinese government will not consider any contact with the Japanese leader during the Sochi games," Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Cheng Guoping told reporters in Beijing.
Tokyo and Beijing are embroiled in a series of rows, including a long-running diplomatic row over disputed islands in the East China Sea.

Hi, I'm looking get a deeper conceptual grip on A&M spectroscopy, particularly what actually goes on between atoms/molecules and photons during an emission/absorption event. In general I just want to understand the "why's and how's" of the selection rules for dipole/quadrupole transitions, but more immediately I'm looking to understand how polarized light is created/absorbed by an atom (which depends on what Δm_l turns out to be during the transition). I've done the derivations on the subject in Sakurai's book (modern QM, section on dipole transitions) but I feel none the wiser, haven't found anything satisfying in my go-to QM text (Cohen-Tannoudji). There's a qualitative explanation of radiative transitions and selection rules in Fowles' "Modern Optics", pg. 244 which I've never found in any standard QM book or in my spectroscopy course/book. Can be found here: http://books.google.es/books?id=SL1n9TuJ5YMC&lpg=PA203&pg=PA244#v=onepage&q&f=false What is meant precisely by the "coherent state between 1s+2p(m=±1)" (caption on fig. 8)? Does this refer to some intermediate state between before and after absorbing/emitting the photon that only lasts for a period of 2π/ω ? What exactly is happening to the atom's state vector here, how is it evolving from a state (say) |n,l=0,ml=0> → |n+1,l=1,ml=1> when it absorbs a photon? What is the physical explanation for the dipole selection rule in this transition (ml must change by an integer value), ie: why is the atom's orbital AM forced to change direction? Where can I expand on this and and/or find a justification of the selection rules? Any particularly good text/chapter from a text worth consulting?
Qualitatively, it's be because of various conservation laws. http://www.eng.fsu.edu/~dommelen/quantum/style_a/consem.html http://physics.stackexchange.com/qu...ngular-momentum-in-the-dipole-selection-rules
Start with H atoms, and the allowed electronic transition from the doublet S state (where the electron is in the 1s orbital) to the doublet P state (where the electron is in a 2p orbital). For electric dipole transitions, an electric dipole in the atom or molecule is set to oscillating by the photon's oscillating electric field. In this case, the only electric dipole available is that between the electron and the nucleus. The state of the electron must be described by a linear combination of two orbitals (in the simplest description). The initial state is spherically symmetrical, so the final state must include a displacement of the electron from that symmetry. The 2p orbital does that. On the other hand, the 2s orbital is also spherically symmetrical, so it doesn't; and so the doublet 1S to doublet 2S transition is electric-dipole forbidden. You can extrapolate that idea to explain, for instance, IR absorption in a molecule. The electric dipole in the molecule must be set oscillating by the oscillating electric field. Keep in mind that classically, an oscillating force transfers energy most efficiently when it's frequency matches the natural frequency of the oscillator; that's why the IR spectrum shows absorption peaks when the photon frequency matches the molecular vibrational frequency. All the other cases (including magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole, etc.) can be viewed this (semi-classical) way. I suggest you take a look at Walter Kauzmann's Quantum Chemistry. It's an old book from the 50s, but is very well-written and uses this kind of semiclassical reasoning extensively. E.g., he has a great explanation for circular dichroism based on considering the current flow in a helical spring--there's left-handed and right-handed, etc. Maybe 15 years ago the Journal of Chemical Education published some animations of the H atom transitions that helped me to visualize this. Look there.

Martinez stirred by Wenger's call
Wenger branded the three-match ban given to Stoke's Ryan Shawcross as "just ridiculous" after the defender was sent off for a tackle that left Aaron Ramsey with a broken leg in Arsenal's 3-1 victory at Stoke last weekend. Birmingham's Liam Ridgewell was shown no card for a robust challenge on Latics midfielder James McCarthy the same day, and Martinez believes more should be done to encourage creativity and eradicate bad tackles. "The hardest thing in football is to be constructive and creative, and to produce the kind of attractive play that everybody wants to see," Martinez told the Wigan Evening Post. "It makes football what it is, and I agree that the referees should be stronger and look to protect the flair players a little bit more. "With those sorts of over-physical challenges, you have a lot to lose - and the rules should help the attacking players. "A tackle does not have to be malicious to be dangerous. If it is mis-timed, you can still put someone's career on hold for nine months, which is a big price to pay. "Paying the price of a broken leg because you are trying to be a creative player is too much of a risk. The rules should be a bit stricter." Martinez accepted that Shawcross showed no malice but questioned why he had gone in for the tackle with such force. "At the time, I thought that it was a late, late tackle, but I didn't think that it was malicious or that he was trying to hurt the player," Martinez said. "But in that area of the pitch, it was unnecessary. "You could understand if a player was the last man trying to save a goal or have an effect on the scoreline. But not when they are in an area where there is no real danger to the defensive team. "Yes, we all want to see heart and desire in the game, but we cannot allow tackles like that which put players at big risk of injury. We all know what players like Aaron Ramsey can do on the ball, and defending is an art as well. "But there is such a thin line when it comes to the physicality. "Teams that are physical and hard to break down are perhaps being too successful at the moment." Arsenal v Burnley To Score 4+ Goals: Arsenal 13/8

Singer and producer Vennu Mallesh sings a song to you about doing whatever you desire to do in your life. The magic speaks for itself.
About 6 months ago, I hit a wall. I'll be honest, work was overwhelming and my personal life was a mess. Running two companies (the photography and my production company 8112 Studios) takes a toll on your mind and body, not to mention flying about 100k miles a year on assignments. In a sense, I was feeling like a zombie. I made a promise to myself when I turned 30 last year that I would take better care of myself, especially due to the poor health history in my family and the arduous health-draining lifestyle of photography and production. Although, at that point 6 months or so, I hadn't done anything to really change my life except an occasional jog and eat less junk food. I'll be honest, I was also doing a lot of moping from a hard breakup at that point and feeling plenty sorry for myself and having trouble focusing on all of my projects (hey, I'm only human). Then one day, I just woke up and decided I didn't want to mope anymore… that I needed to make some changes in my life, and that's when this all began…
I started to do research on diet and exercise. Reading books like the 4 Hour Body (see the video below), which my mom the amazing nurse suggested, and various online articles. I started to exercise and jog slowly. Some weight training here and some cardio there. I would learn different exercise routines from diagrams online and try them out and see what worked. I used what I had learned about circuit training from trying out crossfit last year, which I stopped after I broke my ribs doing crossfit in China last summer. I began to create a diet that worked for me and my lifestyle (less carbs, less sugar, less sodium, no soda/more water, less/no processed food, cut most but not all alcohol out of my life, ate more veggies, ate some more fruit but didn't overdo it due to their natural sugar, cut out fruit juices, ate more protein, avoided excess red meat, etc etc) and an exercise regiment that worked in my tight schedule. I started to pack running shoes in my luggage, and was gradually increasing the intensity of my workouts. Every day I would just tell myself that as long as I was headed in the right direction/a positive direction, that this is all that mattered.
6 months later, I'm stronger than I've ever been, including my time as a firefighter in my early 20's, faster than ever, my natural energy is much higher, and I even have visible stomach muscles (never thought that would be possible). My back no longer aches like it did at the end of a long day with a camera around my neck or lifting heavy cases, and I can pull long hours and keep motivated. It's changed my drive and my ability to focus. Cutting all of that junk out of my system and treating my body better has truly changed my life and improved my life outlook.
Now, let me step back here. This is not meant to be a brag post, I promise, this is about you taking care of you. I just had a good photographer friend suffer a stroke. He is surviving by his sheer will to fight and survive. Amazing guy and it happened to him way too young. I see way too many shooters, myself included, that push our minds and bodies way too hard and it takes its toll. You do not have to be crazy like me and change your entire diet and fitness lifestyle. You do not have to run marathons or lift heavy weights. I just want you to promise me something: that each day you will proactively do something to be conscious of your health. Avoid that extra donut, take the dog for an extra jog or walk, drink less or cut out soda (including diet soda which is just as bad because your body does not know how to process most fake sweeteners and just convert them to fat anyway), just do something! Our lifestyles are SO HARD and the only way to keep ourselves going is to take a little better care of ourselves. Do not abuse your bodies any more than they need to be (unless you're into that sort of thing).
I would LOVE to hear your input on this subject. Please comment with your stories. If you want to know more about my personal exercise routines, diet, or how to be healthier on the road, I'd be happy to share if that interests you guys at all.
These are much longer videos than I normally post, but way more awesome. Check out this 2+ hour documentary on how the 80's action movie Top Gun was made. Incredible and inspiring in regards to production and creative development.
I'll always remember how this feels. It's a hot sticky Mississippi summer night and I'm accidentally and completely overdressed, wearing a suit and tie which feels more like a sauna inside than a fashion statement. Acoustic lyric-less renditions of class rock songs are playing quietly on the speakers in the background as I look down from a second story balcony upon a candle-lit wedding alter by the water. The sun is setting and the crowd is hushed. Something about this moment feels completely like one of those movie moments, as if I'm supposed to remember this for the rest of my life. No, I'm not getting married. Not even close.
There's something about weddings that make you ponder back and forward upon your life. No matter where you may stand in your own love life, you take personally assessment of where you stand with the ones you love. Although, the thoughts drift well past the sentiments of matrimony and undying love like you read in old storybooks and Chuck Norris movies. You see, I'm observing a wedding ceremony for the member of a rock band that started my career almost 10 years ago, and flanking him are the members of the band, my friends, looking on, smiling.
I had flown in from an advertising shoot in Miami to make this wedding, wouldn't have missed it. I thought about the first time I met this band member getting married about 10 years ago. It was actually about 1 mile from where we stand now, in another part of Biloxi, Mississippi. I was just a nervous college senior shooting my first national magazine editorial (knowing very little about what I was doing). Ten years? How could it have been that long ago?
The funny thing is that its not so much the time passed, but the significance of the 10 year mark. You see, I looked up to a few photographers as I developed my career early on (of course I still look up to them). Amazing portrait shooters like Platon and Kwaku Alston. I surmised that successful photographers like them took about 10 years to finally "make it" shooting world leaders and famous celebrities for the cover of major magazines and huge ad campaigns. I would sit in class at photo school and just daydream what it would feel like to hit that 10 year mark in my career and hope I had "made it" and everything would be figured out.
So here I am. At a wedding where my career started almost 10 years later. Standing with the band that originally took me on the road with them and introduced me to all the big names in the industry, jump-starting my career. I took personally inventory of my life and career. All those times I dreamed about where I would be in 10 years professionally and personally and here I am. Funny, I really had accomplished a lot of my personal career goals. Met some of my favorite musicians and photographed them, shot covers for my favorite magazines, ad campaigns for some of the biggest companies, and even a few endorsement deals. Although, these accomplishments haven't fulfilled as I envisioned they would 10 years ago. Yes, I'm extremely thankful in every sense of the word, but I've found these accomplishments alone to leave something to be desired. It is a great feeling to feel like you've done something with your work, but it means very little if you cannot share this joy. Sometimes, I even forget what I've done. I straight up just forget. You see, the accomplishments have meant less than the time I share with those I care about.
It's this moment right here. This wedding. My friends in this sentimental reunion. It's swimming in the pool fully-dressed. It's rolling up the sleeves and dancing like idiots to foreigner as the sweat permeates every pore of my body. It's catching up with the people that were there from the beginning, when a fumbling inexperienced kid shot his first magazine.
I suppose this long drawn out story has a moral somewhere in there. All these big accomplishments you want to make for your photography. Accolades. They are awesome and all, but after awhile, much like love and marriage, your relationship with your craft grows and changes (together hopefully!) This is not a job, it's a lifestyle. The accomplishments are a means to an end. A pathway to better jobs and opportunities. But the fulfillment, it's in the relationships and the memories. It's in creating the photos that you always wanted to and that's rarely accomplished through paying gigs. As I hit 30 last year, I knew that the key to a happier photo life was enjoying the experiences to the best of my ability and not worrying as much about the career markers. For too long I was worried about career markers and didn't even take moments to breath in the new adventures I was embarking.
I liken photography to the music industry. 10 years ago, there were more larger than life rock stars, and today, there are more independent musicians killing themselves to make modest to respectable living, but to do what they love. So, don't focus so much on whether you'll make the cover of Rolling Stone or a photoshoot with the president. Do your thing. Pay the bills. Love the ones you're with, as they say. Make new friends. Live the adventure and the art, not the accolades, no matter what you like to photograph. Sure this may sound preachy and slightly cliche, but it's a valuable lesson I've had to teach myself to keep myself sane as I wonder what's in store for the next 10 years…
To love, to health, to adventure.
I'm not going to pretend I am the richest photographer, or most successful, but I do pay my bills, get published regularly, and rather enjoy my career in photography and filmmaking. People often ask what is my big piece of advice for launching a career in professional photography that can sustain you full time. Well, I could go on for days about my personal philosophies, but here is one crucial element that all of you can do: keep busy.
When I am not shooting, I am editing, or planning out scheduled marketing, or searching for new clients, or shooting personal portfolio projects. Make lists of goals. Without goals, you dont know where you are heading and why or what you should do. Make short term goals and long term goals. Make to-do lists that include completing current projects on time (obviously) and if/when youre done, planning out ways to expand your portfolio and ways to reach out to new clientele.
When reaching out for new clients, think of a specific niche for yourself. If you fancy yourself a wedding photographer, or band photographer, or car photographer, reach out to clients that specifically would be interested in that specialty. Also, build a portfolio (web, ipad, or print) that reflects your specific niche so you may show them. As I have said before, few clients respond to promises of "I'll do a good job, just trust me" on projects where you show no prior experience. Don't be afraid to cold-call (or cold-email). Be persistent with clients you really want to work with. Trust me, I am sure I have been annoying from time to time with my persistence, but much like trying to convince an out-of-your-league girl to go out with you, they cave… eventually. I'm kidding folks, I'm kidding.
Make goals (short and long), keep to do lists, when you aren't shooting a job you should be either shooting for your portfolio and developing a specific niche for yourself and marketing yourself to specific clientele that reflects your niche rather than the shotgun marketing approach.
If you have any other advice, feel free to comment below! You can see me speaking more about becoming a profitable full-time photographer at Photoshop World DC this weekend (March 2012). Some inspiration below.
Here is a little inspiration to start off your Monday. This kid has the right idea. If you believe in yourself you can do it! Just keep trying! Really cute little guy. I was inspired. THUMBS UP FOR ROCK AND ROLL! That's what I say every morning.
Today I turn 30. It feels very surreal. Sure, I know I have plenty of life to live (unless I do something stupid and dangerous lol), but I remember when I thought being 30 was "old" and yet, I still feel like a kid. Although, like the saying goes, you're only as young as you feel I suppose. Anyway, here are some things I learned about life during my crazy 20's:
If you want to give me something for my birthday, please donate to this charitable cause. Thank you!

Hand Puppets and Sweaty Canadians: Photo Lowlights From Super Bowl Media Day
Photo by Tim Elfrink |
The world's sweatiest Canadian TV reporter gets funky with the Saints. |
Well not to worry, ignorant and uninvited masses. Riptide is here to shatter those dreams.
Imagine, instead, an airless room packed way beyond fire code with grotesquely sweaty camera men and TV reporters pancaked with makeup screaming hysterically for attention, while dead-eyed football players recite dull cliches they memorized on the bus.
There are mustachioed hand puppets, airports-at-Thanksgiving-level security lines and insanely dressed Telemundo stars. Chris Berman is in attendance.
Be thankful, then, that we braved the ninth circle of NFL hell known as Media Day at Sun Life Stadium and came away -- barely -- with these photo lowlights. Click through if you dare.

ReadWest is an extraordinary organization with a powerful mission. I serve as a basic literacy tutor and have seen my student grow in leaps and bounds in our short time together. ReadWest is able to accomplish so much in part because of their incredibly responsible use of resources. Every donated dollar is stretched as far as possible to ensure that the students continue to receive free one-to-one tutoring services. Students of ReadWest have gone on to become employed, receive promotions, get their GED, and even write books! It takes so little to be a tutor; reading and writing skills, patience, and a bit of compassion can transform the life of someone struggling with illiteracy. This organization's high ethical standards, integrity, and exemplary dedication to the well-being of New Mexicans makes them my most highly recommended non-profit. Please consider supporting your community by donating your time or money to this fine group.

ReadWest is a Literacy organizatiion in Rio Rancho, NM whose volunteers help adults learn to read, write and speak English. More than 1 in 5 Adults read at or below a 5th grade level. They can't fill out a job application, or read a perscription label or help their children with homework. The cycle of illiteracy puts a tremendous strain on our community resources and keeps families in poverty. Recently one of our students was denied a dishwashing job because she didn't have a GED. Another student who came to us after graduating HIgh School told us he could not even read his Diploma. Our volunteers change lives. The ripple effect within the family and the community of Adults learning to read and write English is profound. We help Adults get better jobs, and become contributing members of the community. Come join us. Your rewards will be immense.

Canned peas ..seriously!!! The rest of the dinner was bland. And my cocktail tasted watered down. Never ever again
The rumor on the street was that this place had the best burgers in town, I brought my family to this restaurant and spent a small fortune on dinner, the burgers were very plain, nothing to write home about, very small servings we had to go eat somewhere else after. Very nice view of the harbour but that is it.
Visited the drive-in for burgers. The service was fine and fast. The burger itself was on the small side, with no condiments other that catchup and chopped onion. Nothing special. However, this place is an institution here, so I intend to give the indoor restaurant a try. For burgers, in Prince Rupert, there are better places. On the plus side,... More
Great food, great service, always very fast and tasty. Great place to eat
The place needs a coat of paint and new curtains but on the bright side the food was consistently excellent and the view is even better. Make sure you get a window seat and enjoy the wildlife as you dine. We had seafood and Italian food on several nights and the quality was excellent every time.
Good old style burgers. Remind me of the ones I used to get at the rodeos Mmmmm
We went to La Gondola with a friend visiting from out of town. The menu appeared to be unchanged since the 1950's. Heavy on the meats and sauces, light on anything vegetarian. The only vegetarian options were fries, onion rings, garlic bread and a very bland salad - iceberg lettuce with a few tomato slices and onions. This is not... More
Without question the best burgers in town come from the Drive-In. It's something about them being wrapped in the foil packages. The milkshakes are perfect too.
We had some of the Italian meals in the sit down part of the restaurant and it was not tasty...the atmosphere of the restaurant isn't good either....definitely skip it! If I want Italian, I honestly rather go and just get a pizza from pizza hut or Panago then go back to this place!
Good burgers and milkshakes

Excerpted from Miss Black America by Veronica Chambers. Copyright © 2005 by Veronica Chambers. Excerpted by permission of Broadway Books, a division of Random House LLC. All rights reserved. No part of this excerpt may be reproduced or reprinted without permission in writing from the publisher.
1. Angela links Melanie's abandonment with Assata Shakur's prison break. How are the two women similar? How are they different? Is there anything revolutionary about either woman's desire and means of escaping the restraints that hold them back?
2. In the first year of Melanie's absence several historical events occur. Discuss how these cultural reference points influence how Angela deals with her mother's abandonment. Do they help her grieve? Hinder that process? Both?
3. Melanie talks about the legacy of the women in her family. How does her abandonment of Angela and Teddo echo her family's history? How does it stand in contrast to what the Brown women would have done? What does it reflect about Melanie, Mona, and Angela? Is there strength in the legacy? Fear? Love?
4. There is strong yearning for both the American Dream and the idealistic goals of the Black Movement. How does this cultural conflict play itself out in the family? What are the consequences and contradictions that arise from their attempts to attain both dreams? How does Melanie and Teddo's thirst for fame and recognition alienate Angela?
5. Teddo prides himself on being a race man. Discuss how his actions, including his Sammy Davis impression toward the end of the novel, contradict his espoused beliefs.
6. What is the role of magic in the novel? How does illusion and disillusion affect each character? How is magic often linked to freedom?
7. Discuss Angela's encounters with Edward and Sammy. How is her reaction to each of these men shaped by her relationship with Teddo? By the absence of Melanie?
8. Angela and Teddo achieve a small measure of fame and are further rewarded with a week with Muhammad Ali. What is the significance of the boxer in the novel? How does he help Teddo and Angela come to terms with their circumstances? How does he bring them closer together?
9. Teddo eventually finds a way to send Angela to an upstate prep school. Is this also a form of abandonment? A way for him to escape? Is it a way to also free Angela?
10. Angela achieves success as an adult. Discuss her decision not to find Melanie. Has she truly moved on from the memories and desire for her mother? What does her choice of lifestyle and career say about her development without Melanie? With Teddo?

Department of the Treasury and FinCEN Alert Regarding Fraudulent Scams
February 4, 2004
On February 4, 2004, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), Department of the Treasury, issued an e-mail alert regarding two fraudulent scams. The first scheme is an identity theft scam, which is aimed at obtaining sensitive personal information from recipients in the name of assisting in the fight against terrorism. The second scam involves the issuance of Fraudulent Anti-Terrorist Stop Order letters to certain customers, purportedly issued by FinCEN, where recipients are notified that there is a mandatory $25,000 fee for the issuance of Anti-Terrorist Certificates before transactions can be conducted. To date, certain bank customers have received the notices. (The e-mail alert was sent to all recipients of FinCEN's 314(a) Requests distribution list.) NASD is also taking this opportunity to alert its members about these fraudulent scams. FinCEN's Notice is reprinted below:
FinCEN would like to take the opportunity to advise you of two known fraudulent schemes:
If you get an e-mail that warns you, with little or no notice, that an account of yours will be shut down unless you reconfirm your billing information, do not reply or click on the link in the e-mail. Instead, contact the company cited in the e-mail using a telephone number or Web site address you know to be genuine.
The Treasury and federal financial regulators are working hard to combat identity theft including the use of new tools in legislation recently signed by President Bush. But all consumers must take reasonable precautions in the use of their personal financial information in order to help prevent themselves from becoming victims of identity thieves.
To obtain the release issued by the Treasury Department on this scheme see the Statement from Treasury Warning About Recent Fraudulent E-mail Schemes at: http://www.treasury.gov/press-center/press-releases/Pages/js1130.aspx.
To view the full release and obtain links to sample letters used in the scam, see FinCEN Release (2/3/04): Warning! Letter Scam Alert! at: http://www.fincen.gov/letterscamalert.pdf.

Junius is a town in Seneca County, New York, United States. The population was 1,362 at the 2000 census.
The Town of Junius is in the northwest corner of the county and is east of Geneva, New York.
Junius was part of the Central New York Military Tract used to pay soldiers of the American Revolution. The region was first settled around 1795.
The town was set apart from the Town of Fayette in 1803. Junius was subsequently divided to form new towns: Wolcott, in Wayne County (1807), Galen also in Wayne County (1812), Seneca Falls (1829), Tyre (1829), and Waterloo (1829).
The Cobblestone Farmhouse at 1027 Stone Church Rd., Cobblestone Farmhouse at 1111 Stone Church Road, Cobblestone Farmhouse at 1229 Birdsey Road, and John Graves Cobblestone Farmhouse are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 26.9 square miles (70 km2), of which, 26.7 square miles (69 km2) of it is land and 0.1 square miles (0.26 km2) of it (0.41%) is water.
The west town line is the border of Ontario County, and the north town line is the border of Wayne County.
The New York State Thruway (Interstate 90) passes across the town. New York State Route 318 is an east-west highway in the town running parallel to the Thruway. New York State Route 414 is a north-south highway crossing a few arces in the far north-eastern part of Junius.
As of the census[2] of 2000, there were 1,362 people, 494 households, and 375 families residing in the town. The population density was 50.9 people per square mile (19.7/km²). There were 532 housing units at an average density of 19.9 per square mile (7.7/km²). The racial makeup of the town was 97.50% White, 0.51% African American, 0.07% Native American, 0.44% Asian, 0.44% from other races, and 1.03% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.84% of the population.
There were 494 households out of which 33.4% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 60.7% were married couples living together, 7.9% had a female householder with no husband present, and 23.9% were non-families. 17.6% of all households were made up of individuals and 5.9% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.76 and the average family size was 3.06.
In the town the population was spread out with 26.7% under the age of 18, 7.7% from 18 to 24, 29.9% from 25 to 44, 26.3% from 45 to 64, and 9.4% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 37 years. For every 100 females there were 99.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 100.8 males.
The median income for a household in the town was $38,317, and the median income for a family was $44,444. Males had a median income of $28,828 versus $22,440 for females. The per capita income for the town was $15,806. About 5.1% of families and 7.9% of the population were below the poverty line, including 7.7% of those under age 18 and 11.1% of those age 65 or over.

Write a ReviewTP roll falls off the end
By Judy from Wilmington DE on Sep 03, 2010
Practical, High-End Shopper, Stylish
This is a visually beautiful piece of hardware. Functionally, it gets an F. There should be a ball or some piece at the end of the bar holding the toilet paper. Each time one pulls on the roll, it slips off the side. Very dumb design. Be aware that these styles seem to come in left or right "handedness". So order the one that will have the open end of the bar toward the wall, so that when pulling on the tp roll, you are pulling it toward the closed end and it most likely won't fall out.
I wouldn't know. I had no idea about "handedness" so my tp roll just sails off the post when pulled.

Planting along a driveway fence
Zone 6 Sunset 3, morning shade against a neighbors fence, hot afternoon sun for about 3 hours before the shade of my house engulfs it.
Will any kind of sun loving/non flowering plant do well here? I'd rather have ornamental grass or sedge in this area. Right now I have Lavendar, coneflowers, a hydrangea and a Rhody here. I planted the Rhody before the fence went up because there were 20 ft evergreens giving it shade for quite a long time in the afternoon.
The coneflowers don't seem to get enough sun and the lavendar I'm surprised are making it. I have to pick out the leaves that fall and decay on it during spring and they just don't look all that happy. As long as I give the hydrangea extra water during the hot afternoon sun, it is quite perky so it's staying. I'm going to find a cute umbrella for the Rhody but everything else is getting transplanted.
It use to be covered in junipers, but my husband and the neighbor decided to pull them all out, including the 20 foot evergreens and put in a fence. What can be planted along a driveway that gets 80% shade and 20% hot scorching afternoon sun?
Northern sea oats, and carex should be ok. There are some great carex, like 'Sparkler." What about a redtwig dogwood? These are dogwood that grow as small shrubs, and you can find all colors in bark and some with variegated leaves at mailorders like ForestFarm.
I'm in a different zone, but have a somewhat similar situation. My yard gets zero sun for 8 weeks during the winter, and in the summer, gets about 4-5 hours of hot afternoon sun (this is due to the treeline and in the summer the sun gets high enough to get over the trees). When we move here 2 years ago, I had planted mostly shade plants, they didn't fare well in the summer. Finally the woman at the nursery told me it's more important on finding plants that will survive the hot sun, than focusing on the shade plants. Sure enough, the sun plants survive the summer, and while they don't thrive in the fall and winter, they do okay.
How tall of bushes are you looking for? One that has done really well for me is Choisya (Mexican Orange). Sorry I don't know if it does okay in your zone. It has white flowers in the spring, but not very showy. I also have had Pittosporum in the yard, but took it out because it grew like a weed and I could forsee that it was going to outgrow it's space- there are different varieties though, and it can be pruned, but ours were on a hill that's not very accessible and pruning is difficult. Other plants that have done well for me, but I don't think you're looking for flowers, are iris and Heliotrope. I'm also in a situation that I have deer in my yard, so that limits my choices and can't comment on anything else.
