The Art Bank is a collection of fine artwork owned by the District overnment. Currently, there are over 2,500 artworks in the Art Bank Collection installed within nearly 145 District government agencies. DCCAH purchases each piece of work directly from local artists and galleries, providing them with financial support and professional benefits. The artwork is then documented, framed and installed in public areas throughout the city, improving the environment in public facilities for District employees and residents. A call for artists is initiated each year for local artists to apply and a selection committee is formed to review and select works made available for purchase.
The largest display of artwork from the Art Bank is the City Hall Art Collection located at the John A. Wilson Building in downtown DC entitled "The HeArt of DC." In 2006, the DC Creates! Public Art Program acquired 153 works of art representing 100 metropolitan area artists for the inaugural phase of the City Hall Art Collection. In 2008, the program made another acquisition bringing the number of pieces to over 200. The collection showcases the extent and depth of our local visual arts talent and history. Over 10 percent of the artists were born in the District, and most have lived here for over 20 years. In addition to supporting the work of living artists through art purchases, we were able to enhance the collection with the work of nationally recognized DC artists including the late Gene Davis and Alma Thomas. By presenting art outside traditional venues of museums and galleries, the City Hall Art Collection benefits the community and its visitors by increasing access to art, extending our cultural institutions' reach, and providing artists with opportunities to expand their artistic practice and audience.
The collection, installed at 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, is open to the public Monday–Friday, 9 am–5 pm. Free, guided tours of the exhibition are available upon request.
For more information, contact Zoma Wallace, Art Bank Coordinator or call (202) 724-5613.

Wait wait wait, DNF is being released, aand Broadcom opens up? "It's the end of the world as we know it..."
Phoronix: Broadcom Announces Open-Source 802.11n Driver!
Broadcom wireless network adapters have long been notorious with Linux users since this hardware vendor has not provided any open-source Linux drivers or specifications for their chipsets, even though Broadcom ASICs are dominantly used within today's wireless adapters. There's long been community projects like bcm43xx and b43 to create Linux drivers and use extracted Windows firmware and such to make the 802.11 adapters work, but for Broadcom's new 802.11n chipsets they have made a radical turn and are releasing a fully open-source Linux driver!..
Wait wait wait, DNF is being released, aand Broadcom opens up? "It's the end of the world as we know it..."
Glad that wireless should virtually always be as plug-n-play as wired has been on Linux from now on no doubt. It already had great support, so that should hopefully finish the job for the most part. Glad Broadcom finally woke up.
Hopefully they expand this to support their 802.11g parts. Or at least contribute to the b43 driver.
It's been a while since I last tested b43 but I had some problems with it on my bcm4312.
Broadcom has become somewhat friendlier in recent years. Take a look at their "crystalhd" products: the provide driver source for those also.
Are we suure that Broadcom is including the firmware in their driver?
VIVA Broadcom
It will not be accepted to the Linux kernel without it.
I thought intel wireless (iwl wifi) driver still requires firmware, which is proprietary, yet it is in kernel. I think right now Atheros driver is the only one that doesn't require any external firmware.
Nevertheless, it is great news that there is finally open source broadcom wireless drivers. b43 has been stable on the 80211b/g chips and used to work great on my old dell notebook (dell 1397). The new ones with 80211n (dell 1510n) is I guess still not supported by b43. Thankfully, they were supported by broadcom's proprietary driver (broadcom-sta), but it was a bit unstable and flaky to my liking.
However, I wonder without ap, encryption, led, rfkill, what does it really do except consuming power for tx/rx .
I think atheros linux wireless drivers (ath9k, ath5k) are the best. Not only do they require any extra firmware, it has been my most stable wireless experience on Linux.
Also, last but not the least, a lot of thanks to the b43 driver developers for their great effort over the last few years.

This week's theme
Terms that appear offensive but aren't
This week's words: queer street
A.Word.A.Day with Anu Garg
Language is meant to communicate and offending someone is also a way to communicate, though not a very nice one. There are plenty of offensive words in a language, any language, and this week's words may appear offensive, but aren't.
They may sound, look, or feel like they have something to do with well-known distasteful words, but they don't. This similarity may cause some to take offense if the words are used in conversation. So should they be?
A dictionary meaning of a word tells only so much. A word in a dictionary is inert. It comes alive only when we use it and give it real meaning. A word can take multiple meanings depending on the speaker, listener, tone, and the context.
Take an everyday word like boy, for example. An adult man wouldn't think twice about his mother calling him a boy. But chances are he'd resent a store clerk or his boss, even an older boss, calling him thus. And that may also explain to folks who wonder, for example, why blacks use the N-word amongst themselves, yet are offended if people outside their community say it.
One might say: Words don't offend people, people offend people.
So should you use this week's terms? Technically, these are perfectly agreeable words, but technically is not how life works. It all depends on the context. For example, I'd avoid using the term queer street if I knew the person I was speaking to was gay.
What do you think? I invite you to discuss this in our online forum Wordsmith Talk.
Even though words featured this week are not offensive, email filters are not smart enough to understand that. It's possible that the filter at your organization tries to protect you from looking at this week's emails. If you find any missing emails, you can view them online.
queer street
PRONUNCIATION:(kweer street)
MEANING:noun: A state of hardship, especially financial hardship.
The origin of the term is not clear. Carey Street, site of the bankruptcy court in London, has been proposed, but the court came decades after the term. It's also been suggested that traders put a query mark against customers suspected of having financial difficulties. Earliest documented use: 1811.
"Mike Bessey said: You can't really make a case that UK farmers are on queer street as a whole -- on average they are surviving and starting modest investment."
Caroline Stocks; £25m Aid Won't Help Struggling UK Dairy Farmers; Farmers Weekly (UK); Jan 22, 2010.
What a strange illusion it is to suppose that beauty is goodness.

In-Basket test taking strategies
Top scoring Performance Strategies
Knowing the amount of time you have for the exercise is important to your level of success. When you begin the in-basket, be sure to note the starting and stopping times. For most in-baskets, the time frame for completion is between 2 and 3 hours.
If there is an instructional sheet on how to do the in-basket, be sure to read it carefully before starting to work. When reading through the instructions, make note of the date and time, who you are, and your level in the organization.
Familiarize yourself with all of the pertinent material contained in the in-basket. Please note that this does not mean you should study each piece of information. Remember that you only have a specific time frame in which to complete this exercise. It will be very difficult, if not impossible, for you to know each piece of the material in depth. If you waste valuable time in studying the material too much, it will inhibit your ability to complete the in basket within the specified time frame.
If there is a calendar, roster, organizational chart, standard operating procedures, rules and regulations - immediately remove these items for easy reference during the exercise.
If a calendar is supplied with the information, pay particular attention to notes on specific dates within the calendar.
If you are taking the place of an officer, know who that officer is.
Know today's date - month and day.
Know what shift you are assigned to.
If you are assigned to a company or battalion, make note of the firefighters or officers in your company or battalion.
Note the chain of command; know who your immediate supervisor is.
Pay strict attention to dates that could cause a conflict or problem for you.
Make note if there is information in the in-basket that correlates to a task or item found elsewhere in the material. Look for correlation's between memos, dates, pertinent information directed to you, and organizational and personal issues.
Appropriate notes should be taken on issues and memos that are of particular attention to you, your shift, your battalion or your organization.
While going through the information contained in the in-basket, you should circle, highlight, underline, asterisk, etc., important dates and information, so when scanning back over the material looking for important information it can be easily accessed.
Be sure to know who your subordinates are and delegate to them whenever applicable. This is an important dimension which many assessors are looking for in these examinations.
Pay particular attention to hand-written notes on some items. These notes can be very important in determining your responses.
All in-baskets will include material known as "filler". This information is used to take up your time and will have nothing to do with any questions you are responding to.
Not all material can be dealt with immediately within the time frame you are given. If certain issues are not of particular importance, they can wait for your return to respond.
When issuing memos or letters, they should be concise, directed to the appropriate person and easily understood.
Items which you determine can be delayed until a further date should have a definite follow-up date written on the memo or letter to be certain that the issue is dealt with.
Look for corresponding relationships between memos, orders, dates, issues and time frames. .
Anything of extreme importance or of a sensitive nature should be handled personally whenever possible.
When delegating tasks or making recommendations or suggestions, it is very important that you include instructions that are concise and to the point.
Follow the chain of command.
Additional Information on in-basket exams can be found at the link below.

The New School > The New School for Social Research NSSR > The holy order: the Areopagite and Eriugena Seminar
Apply Online | Contact
According to Ps.-Dionysius the Areopagite hierarchy is "a holy order, a science and an operation": in his work we find the elaboration of the notion of a hierarchical order ontologically founded in the divine creation. This notion has been translated into Latin philosophical terms by John Scottus Eriugena, the most important point of mediation between Eastern and Western Medieval Philosophy in the Early Middle Ages. In this seminar we will examine the way in which Theology and Christian philosophy provided the field of elaboration of the notion of hierarchy. Our discussion will draw on selected texts of Ps.-Dionysius the Areopagite and John Scottus Eriugena.

The temperature has finally cooled off. The Nationals' bats have not.
Remember when everyone was worried about the Nationals' putrid offensive output? Come on, it's not that hard to remember. It was only a week ago that this team looked incapable of scoring more than two runs a night.
How quickly things have changed, because right now there's nothing hotter in D.C. than the Nats' bats (certainly now that the temperature has finally cooled off to manageable levels). Over their last six games, the Nationals have scored 33 runs. In that time, they've batted a collective .308 with a .377 on-base percentage and a stout .901 OPS.
"I've said it all along: Our offense is pretty good when it's rolling," said Adam Dunn, who is rolling as well as anyone in baseball right now. "Pretty much for the first half, we haven't been on. But I think the last week and a half, we've kind of relaxed a little bit and everyone's locked in."
The Nats will look to continue the offensive surge tonight against Giants left-hander Jonathan Sanchez, who one year ago today threw a no-hitter. Pretty cool that he's back on the mound exactly 365 days later.
As reported yesterday, Justin Maxwell has been recalled from Class AAA Syracuse to give the Nationals an extra position player until they need a fifth starter again (July 20 in Cincinnati). Jim Riggleman has wasted no time putting Maxwell right in his starting lineup, but not necessarily where you thought he might. Maxwell is leading off and playing center field tonight, giving Nyjer Morgan the night off against a lefty. Michael Morse is in right field as Riggleman stacks his lineup with right-handed bats.
Check back for updates before, during and after the game…

Nick Johnson injury update:http://www.northjersey.com/sports/98090314_Yankees_notes__Nick_Johnson_setback.htmlCan you imagine if the Nats went into 2010 counting on Nick Johnson……..24 games played this year with a .167 batting average.

Anyone hear anything? Has Jesus Flores dropped out of sight?
- Ckstevenson - Jul 10, 2010 at 8:14 PM
Why do the Nats need an extra OF as a position player instead of say, an infielder? why spell Nyjer in CF with Maxwell instead of using Bernadina and putting Morse or Willie?I don't get the logic of the move
- JayB - Jul 10, 2010 at 8:18 PM
logic…what is this logic you speak off?
- Anonymous8 - Jul 10, 2010 at 8:18 PM
Ckstevenson – It is Rizzo's chance to get an extra position player and give his "man crush" another chance to shine.He is 12 for 38 in the last 10 games but you have to consider he can barely hit in righty/righty matchups so again Rizzo gives him a chance to shine in the classic lefty/righty.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 8:25 PM
I just have to make this comment about nyjer….first off I want to say I just love his hustle and energy he brings. It was sorely needed last year when he became a national.But I'm really starting to get a little annoyed at some of his mental mistakes. The steal last night with dunn at bat with 2 outs was horrible as far as I'm concerned. Dunn has been on fire and morgan would score on a double from first so what's the point of the steal right there? If he had been called out on that steal I bet riggleman may have benched him. It seems like he has a me first attitude some times instead of thinking about game situations.

LOL anon @ 4:25. I was saying the EXACT same thing to my girl in the stands when he did that. The mental mistakes are killing me. You got to know the situation in that part of the game. Dunn got lucky he got a pitch to hit from Cain. Facts are that Cain pitched a terrible game.
- JayB - Jul 10, 2010 at 8:55 PM
What is this "thinking" your refer to? Morgan and thinking about game situations…..is that possible in this universe?
- David Lint - Jul 10, 2010 at 9:03 PM
I completely agree with everyone that hates Morgan's mental mistake. I also don't think he should ever see the field versus a lefty so I'm not sad about him sitting tonight.I'd rather have Bernadina in CF though, instead of Maxwell.
- natsfan1a - Jul 10, 2010 at 9:25 PM
I don't tend to find occurrences at ballgames hate-worthy, but that's just me. That said, I did also comment to my seatmate regarding why Morgan would steal with a big bat at the plate. What do I win?
- BinM - Jul 10, 2010 at 9:31 PM
The promotion of Maxwell gives the Nationals an extra bat & glove for the next 6 games, gratis. It's unlikely that Maxwell will hit his weight, let alone 'stick' beyond the 20th, so it probably only serves as a warning to Morgan to "straighten up & fly right", because you can be replaced.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 9:58 PM
LOL! Even 1a, the most "optimistic, never criticize anyone" fan is noticing Morgan's mistakes. Morgan must be thinking, "If I've lost 1a, I've lost middle America (or average Nationals fan)!"
- lesatcsc - Jul 10, 2010 at 10:16 PM
There is a huge assumption in the statement "Morgan must be thinking…" Is there any evidence to support the thinking part?
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 10:18 PM
The promotion of Maxwell gives the Nationals an extra bat & glove for the next 6 games, gratis. Maxwell's hitting .121. Willie "I'm right where I need to be" Harris is at least now hitting around .180. He should be an extra glove to replace Taveras but Riggleman is now proceeding full speed ahead into full MCM: "man crush mode". Where Morse will get 2 at bats before Harris comes in to replace him. Back to Guzman playing every day somewhere … and hurting the team with his fielding and dearth of walks (Although, of late he has been walking more when he bats later in the line up?)
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 10:25 PM
Morgan to "straighten up & fly right", because you can be replaced.I'd rather see Boomer Whiting … or Jorge Padilla who appears to be hitting quite well again for Buffalo.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 10:27 PM
So this figures to be a one-shot deal for Justin Maxwell, at least until everyone returns from the All-Star break.And we should believe Riggleman when he says this because?
- court - Jul 10, 2010 at 11:02 PM
Whitting's only been in AAA for a few weeks after being promoted from Potomac. While JMax has been truly underwhelming, I have no problem with this temporary promotion considering the way he's been playing recently. I also don't mind him starting tonight against a tough lefty. Bernandina hasn't played an entire season in over two years, so he's probably only good for about 130 games this year (don't know what his current pace would put him at). The Rigglemonster loves to righty heavy against premier left-handed starters and tonight is just another example of that. Sanchez is pretty filthy.

Craig "Run an Inning" Stammen = Bally Star of 2010.

With that bomb, Morse ties the game and resets the game for Stammen. WTG Micheal!
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 11:53 PM
Another big whack by Morse. That should earn him at least a week of riding the bench.
- Anonymous - Jul 10, 2010 at 11:55 PM
How many chances does Maxwell get?? This guy will never hit major league pitching.

Anonymous said… How many chances does Maxwell get?? This guy will never hit major league pitching. Answer: One more than every other GM would give.
- Anonymous8 - Jul 10, 2010 at 11:58 PM
Stammen looks like the same old guy. A shame. I could hear him curse after that horrific 2nd inning. Guzman saved his butt on that Stammen throw to 2nd to start that double play. Another big RBI hit to a pitcher. Horrendous.Morse hits a HR and Maxwell strikes out to go with his walk. If Maxwell would stop trying to hit the ball 450 feel at each at bat and work on line drives, he may be more effective.
- natsfan1a - Jul 11, 2010 at 12:28 AM
Anon 5:58, I did wonder at the choice to run there, but I wouldn't say that Nyjer has lost me. I'm a homer, remember?
- Anonymous - Jul 11, 2010 at 1:31 AM
Morse is out of the game in the sixth inning for a pinch runner and now the score is tied. Chalk up another dumb move by Riggleman.
- JayB - Jul 11, 2010 at 1:56 AM
Riggs is managing his way out of a job inning by inning…..did anyone think Clippard was going to get out of that inning after the first walk?Hope Riggs like managing in AA because that is where is is going next year.
- Anonymous - Jul 11, 2010 at 2:43 AM
So when does Batista get exiled to Syracuse AAA? He has now allowed 6 home runs in 46 innings. Last year he allowed only seven in 74 innings. Aren't two grand slams? For far less Jason Bergmann got thrown off the 40-man and exiled to Syracuse. Another Riggs man crush in action.
- Doc - Jul 11, 2010 at 2:51 AM
Riggleman reacted too slowly to Clippard's performance. A manager should know when his relief pitchers are 'on' and when they are about to self destruct. Peralta would have been a better choice to be in there. Clipp and Save has become Trip and Cave!
- Anonymous - Jul 11, 2010 at 3:51 AM
@ManassasOf course Riggleman reacted to late. I told my brother who was sitting with me the moment he came in that we would lead before the inning was up. When the game has been on the line since the O's series he has been worthless. The last 7 games 6 IP and 11 Runs given up.He needs to go down to Syracuse and figure out what is wrong. Though I think most people know. He has quit pitching his fast ball for strikes, and is hanging change ups. GO down and fix it. That is five games now in the last 2 weeks he has a blown save. If the Nats hold on to those leads their record would be.500. That is how important what he has done has hurt the team. Riggleman just keeps putting hi,m out there, and in press conference it sounds like he plans to do that in the marlin series. Why? This is a league of what have you done for me lately.

Mark – Was the attempted double steal by Desmond (thrown out at 3rd) with Maxwell batting a straight double steal or a missed hit & run?
- Mark Zuckerman - Jul 11, 2010 at 2:37 PM
Anon8: I believe that was a straight double steal.
- Anonymous8 - Jul 11, 2010 at 2:53 PM
Mark – Thanks for the quick response.It was a head scratcher. Maxwell made an awkward swing like trying to connect in a botched hit-n-run but then again, most of his swings are awkward. Certainly could have been just a bad double steal all the same.0-4 batting .108 and batting at lower average than SIX pitchers on the Nats roster.
- Section 222 - Jul 12, 2010 at 1:39 AM
Everyone in the park knew Clippard didn't have it tonight after the first walk, except for those who knew after the home run. He was laboring, leaving every pitch up. How could Riggleman leave him out there to get shelled and blow the game? Inexcusable. I also seriously question running for Morse in the 6th inning up by only a run, and having Desmond bunt with a man on second. This game was way over-managed and the Nats paid the price. Too bad because we had a promising start and could very easily have won the game.

Sun Dried Tomato Pesto
Pestos are really easy to make and I always enjoy playing around with different flavours. One of my favorite pestos is this sundried tomato pesto which is as easy to make as throwing everything into a food processor and pureeing. In addition to being super simple to make this pesto is just packed with flavour! I like using pestos like this in pasta or as a condiment in sandwiches.

A teacher in Rhode Island quit his job over standardized tests in a very public way.
Stephen Round, formerly a second-grade teacher in Providence Public Schools, took to the web to announce his resignation by making a YouTube video that's since gone viral.
In it, he reads a letter in which he says he can no longer work for a school district that is so structured, it allows no room for alternative methods of teaching and learning, Providence TV station WPRI reported.
"I would rather leave my secure, $70,000 job, with benefits, and tutor in Connecticut for free than be part of a system that is diametrically opposed to everything I believe education should be," said Round, who first applied to become a teacher in Providence in 1999.
He told WPRI he made the video after the school board refused to let him read his resignation letter aloud.
In response, the Providence school district released the following statement to Providence TV station WLNE:
"We regret that Mr. Round has found his recent professional experience dissatisfactory, but we thank the hundreds of teachers in our schools who continue to make learning exciting and enjoyable for their students every day."

Zach Butler pulls a 250 lb sled while working out with strength coach Bill Burniston at Performance Academy in Apex, NC. Butler is getting in shape to compete at the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in the Republic of Korea.
His cheeks are red, his breathing rapid, Zach Butler grimaces as he uses all his strength to pull a 225 lb sled 50 yards. "Come on Zach, let's own it! We've got to earn everything we get," belted out Bill Burniston, Butler's strength coach at Performance Academy in Apex. "We don't want anyone to give us a gold medal. We want to earn it!" Butler, a Special Olympics North Carolina athlete, has been working hard to improve his speed, strength and endurance. The 27-year-old was selected to compete in snowboarding at the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in the Republic of Korea Jan 29 – Feb. 5, 2013. Butler has shown he is committed. "One part of myself says just get through it," Butler said. "The second part says you can't do this. It isn't for you, just quit. I keep going with my first mind and pushing through. It's gotten better each week. I'm no longer ready to pass out at the end-just tired." After a month at Performance Academy, Butler began to notice his hard work paying off. He'd lost 10 pounds and his shirts were no longer snug. His mother caught him admiring his improved physique. "He asked me, have I got a six-pack yet," laughed Lynn Butler, Zach's mother. "I told him not quite yet but keep working. This experience has been so good for him. He looks at himself and says I'm thinner and stronger. He's so proud."

After denials by Tricare to cover a young patient's physical therapy on a horse, and similar denials for other beneficiaries, a proposed bill would require the military health insurer to cover certain forms of physical therapy.
Rep Michael Burgess (R-TX) introduced the Rehabilitative Therapy Parity for Military Beneficiaries Act (HR 1705) on Wednesday. The law calls for Tricare to cover "therapies provided on a horse, balance board, bolster, and bench" if these therapeutic exercises or activities are included in the individual's plan of care. APTA was heavily involved in developing the bill's language, which bolsters the argument that a horse, like a ball or balance board, is simply a tool the physical therapist uses and not an alternative form of therapy.
"Every patient is different, has a different set of needs, and therefore may respond very differently to various types of therapy," Burgess stated. "Ensuring access to needed services is critical for patients to maintain, improve, or regain function."
APTA applauds the efforts of Rep Burgess to ensure all patients have access to therapy services, particularly those who are fighting for our country and whose families bear the greatest weight.
The Dallas Morning News covered the story of the young patient, Kaitlyn Samuels, last month.

This is very impressive size for manual shooting. Did you shoot at 3.75 degrees or disengage click stops and manual reference the marks shooting at about (guessing here) one every 2 degrees left to right?
I have found when shooting large mosaics manually to do sequences of 10 images before brief pause. Also shooting manually gives great control for pausing to let planes fly into viewfinder or large objects to pass by.
Excellent work!
First I used my excel spreadsheet (you can download it on my blog) to determine what was the right setup for at least 30% overlap.
Then I shot a picture every 2,5° using the marks on the head and a line every 5° (it took me 74 minutes).

Hello Yves,
Despite the many unsharp frames you used for the gigapan it is still an attractive image.
Can you tell the name of the city you shot the gigpan ? (the turkish names and text on the buildings and the many wifes with covered heads are all pointing to turkey but I am not sure which city).
You are right, it was shot in Turkey.
The town is Bursa and Zafer plaza is one the most famous supermarket in the city center.

Lobbyist--here's one example: http://www.ibtimes.com/army-lobbyists-led-monsanto-helped-neuter-gmo-labeling-law-connecticut-1295489
that's one powerful board but isn't it just as easy to make lots of money creating edible safe food? do we really need to kill every weed, insects and small animal that attacks crops resulting in food that may harm those who eat it? The world is protesting and here's what's going on in your world: http://occupy-monsanto.com/
their moto is "feeding the world" or is this a new form of birth control--kill off the poor. sad but making lots of money isn't satisfying enough, complete world control is the ultimate level of self-serving satisfaction. Oh there's lots of stuff out there about Monsanto to read most is bs but it is a sign that "we've had enough and we're not taking it any more" and our main weapon is sarcasm which just confuses and voids any real protests.

2013 was a great year for NuFormer, a year where we worked on amazing new projects, innovative concepts and had the honor of receiving a number of great awards. An overview of 2013, our year of firsts:
Firsts in projects
For the Aqua Bella show that premiered at the Dolfinarium last April, we had three firsts; the first projection we produced for a theme park, the first permanent show we produced and the first time that our MD Rob Delfgaauw designed a custom large scale projection screen.
Another great project (and two firsts!) we executed was Philips´ new brand positioning reveal with shows taking place in two different countries on the same date, Amsterdam and São Paulo. It was also the first time that we used interactivity via a tracking device like Kinect to project interactivity onto the huge façades of the two buildings.
Firsts in development and innovation
Earlier this year we opened the NuLab, where we let our creative juices flow and work on development of new and exciting projects and innovations. We built a green key studio and are continuously testing new hardware and software like the Oculus Rift, Leap Motion and Kinect 2, for which we are part of the Windows developer kit program.
We also worked on a new form of projection media called Interactive Window Projection, which tracks moving objects and people in front of a screen or window to create exciting interaction.
Firsts in awards
This year we were honored to receive the Bronze BassAward in the category "Best Mapping" for our Mocap Mapping projection and an honorable mention for "De Zeeuwse Pioniersprijs", a prize for local entrepreneurs and companies. But we are most proud of the prestigious IAAPA Brass Ring award the Dolfinarium's Aqua Bella show won for Overall Production. A great achievement!
"Secret" projects
This summer we worked on a huge American production for a TV show that will air early 2014. Our contribution was meant to stay unrevealed until after the launch, but if you have the opportunity to watch US television and pay really close attention to what is happening on (American) TV this coming year, you might recognize some of the creative visual magic that we produced for this show.
Besides the Dolfinarium project we also worked on another innovative concept in the world of theme parks. Because work is still in progress we cannot share too many details but what we can share is that it is something totally different than what you are used to expect from us. As always, we will definitely keep you updated on future developments!
What to expect in 2014 – Rob Delfgaauw / Managing Director
The coming year will be one of developments of brand new technologies and innovations. Most of them are related to projection technology as you can expect from us. But there will be also some innovations that we expect to trigger quite some international media channels, eager to publish about these innovations as soon as possible.
As soon as we can we will update you all about these next steps in our progress.
3D video mapping projections in the beginning of the new year will mainly be performed in the US. Permanent and semi-permanent video mapping installations are more and more requested for by major brands and organizations worldwide. Obvious that NuFormer is asked for these new projects as we have the skills, the talents and the experience to deliver turnkey solutions all over the world. And we are happy to do so.
For 2014 I also expect NuFormer to expand due to more volume and diversity in its products. More talented artists, especially in the field of 3D modeling and animation, are required and will be an important factor when talking about crew/team substance. Maybe we will even be 'forced' to look for a new office where a larger number of employees can be accommodated and where, attached and part of the building, we will have the availability of a studio for experimenting with and development of new technologies. That would be great and of course we will let you all know as soon as there are some updates about that.
I wish everybody a Merry Christmas and lots of love, prosperity and good fortune in 2014.
Rob Delfgaauw

Amsterdam, November 13, 2013. Philips revealed its new logo to all its employees and press worldwide with a spectacular 3D video mapping show projected on the massive façade of the headquarter building. The mapping projection was produced and performed by NuFormer. The reveal in Amsterdam was streamed live and virtually attended by between 20.000 and 30.000 Philips employees worldwide. Some hours after the reveal show in Amsterdam NuFormer performed the same projection, although somewhat modified for the Brazilian market, in São Paulo, Brazil.
The reveal event was swiftly picked up by the press and other media. Our crew working on the show in São Paulo watched the coverage on the Dutch 8 o'clock news even before they went live with their Brazilian reveal! That news item can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N907VPVILVQ.
Rob Delfgaauw, managing director: "NuFormer is a Netherlands based company. Executing this show for Philips makes us feel extra proud and honored to be connected and involved in such a unique event for this major Dutch brand. The projection itself was awesome, a great result of working close together with all related parties such as Fleischman, Ogilvy New York and the Philips team. And of course many other companies that contributed with their own expertise and skills. It was great to see at the end how all these collaborations have turned into an excellent and successful event".
As part of its new brand positioning Philips presented a new design of its well-known shield and introduced the brand line "innovation and you" for the first time, visualized in the video mapping projection on the façade of the head office in Amsterdam. Philips' new brand line "innovation and you" is rooted in its belief that innovation is only meaningful if it delivers on peoples unmet needs and desires. The re-designed shield is updated to better suit digital media and mobile channels.
Coen Deurloo, Multimedia Designer: "It is always a treat to see our ideas and creations come to life on a building after working on it for such a long time. I have worked on the opening scene for instance, in which you see various people using innovations made by Philips. We had to record all those shots in one day, which was quite a challenge. Because they're all silhouettes, the actors had to exaggerate their movements a bit to make clear what kind of products they were using. The final result looked very good on the huge canvas".
Before and after the big reveal Philips' employees and other attendees were able to interact via Kinect with several staple Philips products and the building. And there is no better way than an interactive 3D video mapping to bring the brand line "innovation and you" to life!
John Buise, manager multimedia: "As soon as it was clear that we were commissioned to create a full scale interactive projection on the Philips head office we were very excited. It was our mission to let people "touch" the projection, and play with some of the well-known Philips products, while audio responsive visuals were running in the background. The biggest challenge was to actually create the kind of content that makes sense – combining VJ show with interactive elements that people could understand".
At NuFormer, an extended team worked for weeks on creating the creative content for the big reveal and the interactive part of show. Our trainee Joost was connected to the interactive team as well, he worked on this project during the entire process from the testing phase to the execution on site in Amsterdam: "We first developed some tests to explore the possibilities when using the Kinect to create an abstract representation of the person who triggered several product-related effects in the projection. The most challenging part of the project was to convert the characteristic functions of the products into simple interactive visuals that users could understand and trigger. Besides this interactivity we also created different audio responsive visuals that transformed the building into a huge VJ canvas. It enabled us to amplify the music whenever we wanted with different colors, animations and 3D effects. This project made us discover new ways to create a unique user experience using interactive video mapping. For me as trainee I couldn't wish for a better experience, I learned a lot in a short and fascinating period".
The production time for the creation of all the projection content and the development of the interaction was nearly 7 weeks. This is a tight time frame for such a project, especially with a second location to operate on the other side of the world. The NuFormer team was extended with Alain and Auke, excellent 3D artists. In total a crew of 10 worked dedicated on the content production. In the last phase of the production the team even had to work overtime to make sure everything was ready in time and at the highest quality level as usual. But the final result was awesome which gives us such a great satisfaction and motivation. It was great. And so was the work of Natascha, senior project manager. Right from the start of this production she was on top of everything and maintained a helicopter view. For Amsterdam as well as São Paulo Natascha had everything under control. Communication and organization were handled very efficiently which was very important seen the available timeframe. A job well done.
Rob Delfgaauw, managing director: "The team has done a great job in such a short time. I am impressed every time again to see how they use their skills and their talents but also take their responsibilities to create and develop this beautiful projection mapping content and the advanced interactivity. NuFormer team, thank you all for the excellent work!".
Please check this blog regularly the coming days for updates as there will be videos of the Amsterdam and probably also the São Paulo event published soon.

After an extensive renovation the Dolfinarium in Harderwijk, The Netherlands opened her doors again for the general public on April 27th 2013. In close cooperation with the Jora Vision and Dolfinarium team, NuFormer produced the 3D video mapping animations for the new Aqua Bella show. The DolfijndoMijn is one of the first theaters worldwide to incorporate this technique into their show. The making-of video of the Aqua Bella show can be viewed here.
The entire process took approximately 9 months and it all started with the storyboard designed by Jora Vision and the first sketches of the decor by NuFormer's Managing Director Rob Delfgaauw. "For the design of the screen I had set some parameters for myself: it had to be somewhat curved so as much people as possible could see the projection content in the round dome of the Dolfinarium, the screen should have an organic shape and the surface should be a construction of several panels so we could also use our mapping expertise. When working on that design I was in India and one morning I was swimming in the sea, together with Anna, my wife. It was very early in the morning and the sea was dead calm. We swam quite far away from the beach and suddenly we were surrounded by a group of six dolphins. This was such a great encounter, beyond words. They swam around us for less than a minute, but it felt like an hour. Such an exciting moment and I suddenly noticed their tails when they gracefully submerged. That tail shape kept swimming around in my mind and as soon as we were out of the water we made some sketches of what eventually has become the impressive projection screen as it is now in the Dolfinarium. Thanks to the dolphins over there in India."
The sketches were then recreated in 3D by NuFormer's 3D department. Based on this 3D drawing the set designers were able to build the decor with great precision.
The upcoming three years the Aqua Bella show will take the visitors of the Dolfinarium onto a journey around the world and will display the beauty but also the vulnerability of the Earth. Displaying different continents was the main reason why a traditional fixed piece of scenery was not an option.
According to Creative Manager John Buise it was an exciting challenge to create visuals for the tailor-made decor that are complementary to the storyline, light effects, water fountains and dolphin behaviors. He very much enjoyed working on this project and is proud to look back on the show which resulted from a successful and pleasant cooperation between all parties involved.
"We constantly had to maintain a balance between the educational and entertaining character of the show, while keeping in mind that it has to be suitable for all ages. As an example, we had to ensure that all animated animals that appear in the show behave realistically and actually correspond with the natural habitat that they are displayed in", says Project Manager Natascha Rooda.
3D Artist Tim Kempees says: "It was a great pleasure and challenge to create the dolphin tail in 3D which functions as the very start of the show. The dolphin tail had to both exactly fit the custom shaped decor and look lifelike. I very much enjoyed the research phase where I took videos, photographs and the actual animals in the Dolfinarium as a reference to translate their color, texture, behavior, movement and other characteristics to a realistic and impressive 3D animation."
The 3D animated dolphin tail was used for the invitation of the VIP premiere and the promotional trailer which NuFormer created during the process of creative content production. The trailer which was also shown during the official press presentation can be viewed here.

A crappy whiney band with no talent. They tend to repeat a line over and over again if they can't think of another lyric. They threaten to kill themselves over teenage relationships! They aren't guitarists, any beginner can bash a few power chords. No diversity to lyrics, and horrible influence on our youth, soon enough the trendy little emo kids, and also the teenage girls that this music is marketed towards, will begin killing themselves over failed teenage relationships. Overall a damper on music and society.

These trousers are good quality, and should be perfect, but as others have said, they have a weird fit. I'm fairly tall (5'8) with quite long legs, and these are miles too long. They also got really baggy around the knees and bum after only one wear, which is very frustrating. I can't return them because I have worn them a couple of times, but I'm disappointed. The quality of IO clothing is brilliant, but these have been a bit of a let down. |

Never owned a pair of treggings before - I hate the very word. But fact is I'm sick of maternity jeans that keep falling down (and sometimes jeans aren't smart enough anyway). These fit great, wash well, don't sag or bag, don't fall down, look good with most things. |

These leggings are of superb quality!!! The fabric is very thick. They fit like a glove and yet stretchy. I would have loved to have kept them, but I am sending them back because I am realizing that I prefer leggings with the elastic band at the top to accommodate a growing belly. This one fits below the belly because its a bit too tight to cover it. While I thought I like this style since I don't like anything over my belly, below the belly pants are not as comfortable because they cut into my pelvic area. So I am sending these back. I highly recommend them though if you don't mind the below the belly aspect. The leggings are slightly long, but I don't mind gathering them above my knee, they look very good and stylish, the fabric is very comfortable and are of the high quality that I have come to expect from IO. The only issue is that I don't see what makes it like Jodhpurs, these treggings are black so they look like any other pair of leggings. |

I love these!
15th October 2012
I can see that I'll be wearing these treggings throughout my pregnancy, and most likely afterwards too. They are nice and thick, perfect for New York, and they look stylish when teamed with a long length sweater or coat and boots. I wore them recently on a plane and they made the flight much more comfortable. I'm not sure they'll fir right through my third trimester, but here's hoping. |

I remember when I first saw a Boeing 757: While boarding one in 1983. I was struck by the highly cambered wings; the tall landing gear; the nose, which recalled a Lockheed Constellation; and the pair of big, high-ratio bypass engines, which seemed to produce a gentle hum as opposed to a whine. This was elegance and efficiency in motion mated to a comfortable cabin with plenty of headroom.

Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
A friend has been diagnosed with bone cancer, but has decided to refuse any treatment. What are his chances?
He has taking up alcohol as pain relief. What overall effect will this have? He is obviously experiencing anger and denial but I will address these on separate issue.
John Han-Chih Chang, MD and Ken Blank, MD, Editorial Assistants for OncoLink, reply:
To P.H.:
Thank you for your question.
Cancer of the bone is a general term used when cancer cells are seen in the bone. The cancer cells may be of several different types. For example, multiple myeloma and osteogenic sarcoma are both "bone cancers" but carry different prognoses and require different treatments. Also, many people use "cancer of the bone" in situations when cancer from another part of the body has spread to the bone. Breast, prostate and lung cancer are among those malignancies that often spread to the bones. Without knowing the specific diagnosis of your friend's bone cancer, it is difficult to be of more assistance.
In regard to the treatment of your friend's cancer pain, there are excellent medications which, when prescribed under the direction of a physician, allow long lasting relief of pain with few side effects. Also, radiation therapy is an effective and commonly used treatment of bone pain. Please see OncoLink's Pain Management page which includes numerous articles on the management of cancer pain.

Gifts should reflect the giver's awareness of recipient, and carry a bit of the giver's personality. Practical, thoughtful, and thought-provoking are also important attributes. And because this is Firedoglake, a healthy dose of social consciousness never hurts.
Top of my list: FDL's Free Bradley Manning t-shirt (there's also an awesome sweatshirt). I ordered one for a friend as a Thanksgiving gift, and he loved it, and I have one myself. The cotton is soft, the design is super cool, and you're helping to support Manning's trial coverage and activism.
Want to give a group gift, say for the whole family or your office? Occupy Sandy desperately needs Tyvek suits to protect those who are cleaning up mold damage in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. Or consider supplying Occupy with the FDL Occupy Supply items.

Helpful Definition for: Air Conditioning & Heating
Air condition in Union helps to remove the heat from indoors by cooling the air for thermal comfort. The comfort applications aim to provide a building indoor environment that remains relatively constant in a range preferred by humans, despite changes in external weather conditions or in internal heat loads.
In milder winter climates, where temperature is quite low, heat pumps are used. Heat pump in Union is a term for a type of air conditioner in which the refrigeration cycle is able to be reversed, producing heat instead of cold in the indoor environment, commonly referred to, and marketed as, a reverse cycle air conditioner. Some home-owners in Union elect to have a heat pump system installed, which is actually simply a central air conditioner with heat pump functionality, that is the refrigeration cycle is reversed in the winter. When the heat pump is enabled, the indoor evaporator coil switches roles and becomes the condenser coil, producing heat. The outdoor condenser unit also switches roles to serve as the evaporator, and produces cold air that is colder than the ambient outdoor air.
This is due to the problem of the outdoor unit's coil forming ice, which blocks air flow over the coil. To compensate for this, the heat pump system must temporarily switch back into the regular air conditioning mode to switch the outdoor evaporator coil back to being the condenser coil so that it can heat up and de-ice. A heat pump system has a form of electric resistance heating in the indoor air path that is activated only in this mode in order to compensate for the temporary air conditioning, which would otherwise generate undesirable cold air in the winter.

It goes without saying that these pieces wear out, but they do so slowly, meaning you may not notice they need attention until ...
