He knew why migratory warblers traveling north from the Caribbean and South America found Wisconsin such a perfect place to land.
They travel by night, Noel Cutright said. "When it gets light they say, 'Uh-oh, I'm over water. I need to find land.' That's why the western shore of Lake Michigan is so important for migrant birds," he explained.
Cutright, man of birds and conservation, founder of the Western Great Lakes Bird and Bat Observatory, died Sunday night of cancer at his West Bend area home. His wife, Kate Redmond, was at his side. He was 69.
"Birds are just magic," his wife said of Cutright's attraction to them. "The color, the way they move, the way they call. The whole migration thing was something he was intrigued with."
The warblers — the American redstart, magnolia and palm — were among Cutright's favorites, his wife said. "They're sometimes known as the butterflies of the bird world. They're so pretty, and their songs are lovely."
But it's safe to say that Cutright never met a bird he didn't like — or couldn't identify, by sight or song.
Cutright liked to say that he became enchanted with the world of birds as a baby, when his mother, Mabel Thomas Cutright, bathed him in the kitchen sink. There was a birdfeeder right outside the kitchen window.
"He said that's when he started being a birder," his wife said.
An only child, Cutright grew up in southern Ohio, on the Fort Hill State Memorial, a state historical site near Sinking Spring. His father, Harvey, was the memorial site's superintendent, and Noel helped him maintain the property, with its old-growth southern forest. Perfect for birds.
"There were a lot of good birds there. A lot of good stuff," Redmond said. The black-and-white pileated woodpecker with its blazing red crest, the brilliant red bee-eating summer tanager.
"There was the Kentucky warbler — his favorite bird," she said. "It's a beautiful little bird (brilliant yellow and olive green) with a neat song. It sounds like 'giddyap, giddyap.'"
Cutright also met scientists and botanists at the Fort Hill Memorial, spurring his interest in the natural world.
He was working on his doctorate in wildlife science at Cornell University when he met his wife, an environmental educator who was working on her master's degree. They had offices in the same building.
"Our first date was a breeding bird survey where you start in the wee hours," she said. It had 50 stops to observe the bird action, which meant driving half a mile, stopping to listen and observe a few minutes.
Such surveys were one of his specialties. He was able to get out of the car and listen for three minutes, then identify seven or more types of birds he'd heard, his wife said. But he could also tell how many of a particular type of bird he'd heard — how many cardinals, how many house wrens.
"Any birding field trip, he was the ears of the trip," his wife said. "He could pick out all the birds' calls that were happening simultaneously. He was just incredible at remembering bird songs."
Cutright worked for 29 years as senior terrestrial ecologist for Wisconsin Electric Power Co. (now We Energies), where he pioneered a method to deal with birds of prey that would try to nest in transmission lines.
"Some of them were getting electrocuted," said Kris McKinney, the utility's manager of environmental strategy and Cutright's supervisor.
In 1986, the peregrine falcon was reintroduced to the state, and the utility — led by Cutright — backed the effort with nesting sites on power plants. Peregrine falcons are native to Wisconsin but had vanished by the 1960s because of habitat loss and extremely low production of young. Cutright also was instrumental in establishing nesting platforms for osprey.
"He gave an environmental conscience to everything we did," said Bruce Ramme, vice president/environmental at the utility. "He was a giant in many ways."
Cutright worked for years at the utility's Wisconsin State Fair exhibit. He retired in 2006 but continued to work with the utility in an emeritus post.
Over the years, he took part in hundreds of annual Christmas Bird Counts, and served as the Wisconsin coordinator of the Great Backyard Bird Count of the National Audubon Society. In 2004, he marked more than 30 years of collecting federal Breeding Bird Survey data with — what else? — a marathon. His Quad 30 Campaign sought to raise $30,000 for bird conservation in 30 days, but instead raised $50,000.
Cutright was known, too, for his work on Wisconsin Public Radio's holiday call-in show on birds. He was a longtime member of the Wisconsin Society for Ornithology, serving two terms as president; he founded the Riveredge Bird Club in Newburg; and he helped organize the Bird City Wisconsin program, which works to promote bird-friendly habitats.
He also served as senior editor of the "Atlas of Breeding Birds of Wisconsin," which was published in 2006.
Colleague Karen Etter Hale of the Madison Audubon Society, who worked with him on a various state issues, called Cutright "the ultimate birder."
"He would get to a meeting, step out of the car in the parking lot and have 10 species identified. He was listening all the time," she said. "He was tuned in to birds all the time."
Cutright was a conservationist in all things, including the funeral plans he'd made. After a gathering Tuesday at the observatory he founded, he planned a green burial on Wednesday at the Natural Path Sanctuary near Madison. He selected a burial spot at the top of a hill.
Among the funeral plans were words he found meaningful. He chose a quotation by the famed conservationist Rachel Carson:
"There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of birds. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature — the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the winter."
The reason he chose it, his wife said: "It's the continuity of things."
Besides his wife, Cutright is survived by daughters Robyn Cutright and Laurel Cutright; a son, Seth; and other relatives.
Noel Cutright
A memorial gathering will be held from 3 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Western Great Lakes Bird and Bat Observatory at the Forest Beach Migratory Preserve, 4970 Country Club Road, Belgium. A private burial will be held Wednesday at Natural Path Sanctuary in Verona, near Madison. Memorials to the observatory, made to the Ozaukee-Washington Land Trust, are suggested.

Polarizing filter for the Olympus Stylus 1
Dec 28, 2013
In bright weather conditions I love to take pictures with a pol filter. So far I did not find out whether it is possible to apply a polarizing filter without any adapter to the Stylus 1 and what would be the specificiations for that filter. I believe that another lens cap would be necessary too. Has anybody already experiences with a specific pol filter on this camera?

Goldman Sachs told clients to bet on Citigroup shares before fourth-quarter earnings later this month as new Chief Executive Officer Michael Corbat cuts costs and withdraws from some markets. Investors should buy call options on shares in Citigroup before the bank announces its results Jan. 17, Goldman Sachs said today in a note to clients…The New York-based firm also added Citigroup to its "conviction buy list" and said shares could rise to $49 within a year. Corbat, 52, who replaced Vikram Pandit in October, is laying off thousands of workers and pulling out of some countries as he seeks to reduce costs at Citigroup. His plans, announced last month, make the New York-based bank the "best large-cap restructuring story," Goldman Sachs analysts led by Richard Ramsden said in another note. "Under new CEO Michael Corbat,** we believe Citi is poised to improve returns and increase efficiency," the analysts wrote.

Armed, certified law enforcement officers could become fixtures at more public schools across the state under a proposal Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves announced Friday.
Reeves is asking lawmakers to OK $7.5 million to create a grant program to increase the number of law enforcement officers in public schools across the state. Up to $10,000 in matching funds would go toward the cost of adding officers.
There are about 1,050 school campuses across the state. The allocation for the program would not cover all of the schools, but Reeves said he does not believe the demand in the first year of the program ...

A Day Out With Bachelorette Emily Maynard
Emily Maynard | Photo Credits: Photograph by Lizzy Sullivan at Make Meanin
Let's face it: Emily Maynard's a great date. In the midst of her stint as this season's Bachelorette, the 26-year-old sassy single mom from Charlotte, North Carolina, accepted our invite to paint pottery at New York's Make Meaning and talk a little shop. We may not have gotten a rose, but she sure won our heart.
TV Guide Magazine: So, filming just wrapped... Did you find what you were looking for?
Maynard: Well, I was happy before I was on the show, and I am happy now. That's a plus, right?
TV Guide Magazine: Wow, you're good. How was it balancing the show with real life?
Maynard: My mom duties went on just like normal. I'd get home from filming at 5am and was up at 7am making breakfast and packing lunch.
TV Guide Magazine: ABC couldn't spring for Lunchables?
Maynard: [Laughs] Well, [my 7-year-old daughter] Ricki is a picky eater. And I'm that mom. The peanut butter and jelly sandwich has to have the crust cut off.
TV Guide Magazine: How did you manage to stand up with so little sleep?
Maynard: I tried to remind myself that there are a million women who would give their arm to be where I am, so I had no right to complain. I wanted to be the best for the guys when I showed up, because it wouldn't be fair to them.
TV Guide Magazine: What did Ricki think of the guys?
Maynard: You know, she didn't meet any of them. I kept her very protected throughout all of this, so she just thinks I was going to work. But one day, I'm going to be really proud to tell her about the decisions I made.
TV Guide Magazine: After your short-lived engagement to Bachelor Brad, how did the producers convince you to do this again?
Maynard: I was like "no way!" At one point, I told them to please stop asking, that I was never, ever going to do this. But I prayed about it and made a list of why I would and wouldn't do it. Everything on the "cons" list was out of fear. What if it didn't work? What would that magazine print?
TV Guide Magazine: You'll be run out of town!
Maynard: Exactly. [Laughs] It turns out no one really cares. And [all of] Charlotte was so supportive. I would go into grocery stores and the magazine covers that had something bad about me would be turned around or ripped off.
TV Guide Magazine: Have you heard from Brad?
Maynard: No. Although I did see an interview he did, saying he dodged a bullet.
TV Guide Magazine: He dodged a bullet?!
Maynard: That was my reaction, too! [Laughs]
TV Guide Magazine: Now that both experiences are over, what did you learn about yourself?
Maynard: I learned I'm stronger than I give myself credit for. I never thought I'd be able to look at somebody and say, "You need to go."
TV Guide Magazine: Did you ever second-guess yourself during those rose ceremonies?
Maynard: A lot of times! I would go into the cocktail party with my mind made up, then something would happen and I'd change [it].
TV Guide Magazine: And you weren't aware of any beefs between the guys, either, right?
Maynard: No, not unless one of them told me. The first night's drama with Kalon and Stevie? I had no idea any of that had happened until I watched the episode.
TV Guide Magazine: But Kalon brought that on himself, showing up in a helicopter.
Maynard: Oh, totally. But I always stick up for the underdog. Even if he brings it on himself, the mama bear in me wants to protect the guy that's getting picked on.

0.1 points decided the winner of Saturday's third stop of the 2012 World Series on the volcanic archipelago of the Azores, Portugal. It was the closest victory to date since the kick-off of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series in 2009 and made Russia's Artem Silchenko the third winner in three competitions this season. Orlando Duque (COL) came just behind, in second place, but regained the overall lead of the 2012 World Series. He was followed by World Series champion Gary Hunt (UK). More than 2,000 spectators crowded the waters around the 28m take-off points on the offshore islet of Vila Franca do Campo to watch the 13 athletes go back to the roots and directly off the cliff face in the competition's first two rounds.© Red Bull Media House

White Dress, Black Tights
I have noticed a curious phenomenon over the last few weeks. I suppose it was inevitable. Little white dresses, especially in lace, are one of spring/summer's key pieces but changeable British weather makes this trend tricky to wear until July or August so the obvious solution is a pair of nice thick tights. White dress and black opaque tights combinations have sneeked their way on to some of our best dressed ladies of late. It might have historically been a style no no but if Kate Moss says it's OK I guess it's OK!
If you are going to copy this look, I'd advise going for something matt and high quality like Kate Moss and Emily Blunt. The Falke Pure Matt 100 Denier Tights in Black should do the trick as they give great coverage. Pamela Mann's 120 Denier Tights will also give you a good solid colour. The rule with this look is, the higher the denier the better. You want to avoid any leg showing through your tights. Kate Middleton's sheer black tights for example make her otherwise flawless outfit look a little dated.
Lastly, definitely make sure you wear with black heels to make your legs look longer and slimmer. Any other colour, and particularly white, will make your legs look shorter and cheapen your outfit.
Let us know what you think of this look or, if you think you can give Kate and Emily a run for their money in the style stakes, post your own photos on our Facebook pages. We always love seeing how you style your tights!

Public health experts ought to be allowed to evaluate interactive games in which users exercise, practice making dietary choices and adhere to virtual treatment regiments.
Video games are now more popular than motion pictures; video games whose stories and objectives portray aspects of personal health might give rise to healthier thought patterns and behaviors.
This Online First commentary urges public health policy-makers and professionals to monitor developments in health promoting interactive technology. The authors describe examples of games that work through the Internet, mobile devices and video game platforms.
Key Findings:
Through its program on Health Games Research, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is evaluating interactive technology that fosters healthy living; health-based video games have the power to captivate millions, including individuals often missed by traditional health messaging. Further investigation by the public health community is necessary to create evidence-based design of health promoting interactive technology.

By Johnny firstname.lastname@example.com The price of gas is setting yet another record high. On Monday, crude oil prices surpassed $116 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), as national average prices for gasoline toppled $3.50. Gary Phillingim, of McDonough, said he is no longer surprised by the almost-daily record spikes in gas prices. He is paying 73 cents more per gallon than he did last year. It is a steep difference, but not as steep as the difference he would have to pay in diesel fuel. "My biggest deal is the diesel," Phillingim said. In one year, diesel prices have increased by about $1.25 per gallon on average. The increase has prompted Phillingim to, for the moment, retire his Ford F250 diesel engine pickup that he bought in 1999. "Fuel was 72 cents for diesel, then," he said. "And regular was $1.39 a gallon. It's the reason I bought the truck." He said his pickup is still in good condition. But he now drives his passenger car primarily to save money on gas. The U. S. Department of Energy advises that motorists can increase their gas mileage by up to 33 percent just by being more sensible in their driving habits - not speeding or rapidly accelerating in traffic. Gas mileage typically decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 miles per hour. A rule of thumb is that every 5 mph a person drives over 60 mph is the equivalent to paying an additional 20 cents per gallon on gas. You can improve your gas mileage by around 3.3 percent by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure. Under-inflated tires can lower gas mileage by 0.4 percent for every 1 pound per square inch drop in pressure of all four tires. Properly inflated tires are safer and last longer. Drivers should check tire pressure regularly. However, selecting which vehicle to purchase may be the most important fuel-economy decision motorists can make. The difference between a car that gets 20 miles per gallon and one that gets 30 miles per gallon is about $808 per year. For 15,000 miles of driving at an average fuel cost of $3.23 per gallon, the difference in cost would be $4,038 over five years. The cost of gas U. S. oil refinery output last week was at its lowest level (at 81 percent) in nearly three years, since Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, according to the Department of Energy. Analysts say the decline is a voluntary response and not a reflection of major repair problems. The crude oil rally and weakening dollar, nonetheless, drove retail prices higher. "Unfortunately, there is nothing on the horizon that would serve as an obstacle or disincentive to the crude oil rally," said Gregg Laskoski, spokesman for American Automobile Association (AAA) Auto Club South. "Until we see the dollar make significant gains versus the euro, we cannot expect crude oil or retail prices to fall," Laskoski added. NYMEX crude oil closed Friday at $116.69 per barrel, and remained above $116 through Monday. In metro Atlanta, regular unleaded gas prices average about $3.49 per gallon, up from $3.36 a week ago and $3.23 a month ago. One year ago, the average price was $2.76. Diesel prices averaged $4.16 per gallon compared to $2.92 this time last year, when diesel was cheaper than premium and mid-grade fuel. Since April 2007, per-gallon diesel has increased by an average of $1.25. Gas prices that averaged $2.93 per gallon last summer are projected to average $3.54 per gallon this travel season. Diesel fuel, which averaged $2.85 per gallon last summer, is projected to average $3.73 this summer. - On the net: Fuel Economy: www.fueleconomy.gov Fuel Gauge Report www.fuelgaugereport.com

Archive for the 'Lighting' Category
A stunning chandelier never fails to attract attention when you walk into the room. However, you don't have to have a huge chandelier to make a room better with a hanging light. Smaller chandeliers and other types of pendant lights (such as ceiling fans) can make a huge impact on the ambience of any home without overwhelming the entire space. They add stunning ambience that improves the beauty of the room in which they are carefully placed.
Chandeliers are Decorative Lighting
The most important thing for you to realize is that these types of lights are designed for decorative lighting more than for functional lighting. Understanding this will help you use these lights correctly.
Tips that relate to this point include:
- Use chandeliers and pendant lights to light specific areas, not whole rooms.
- Select these types of lights for their beauty and aesthetic appeal.
- Place these in rooms that aren't already dominated by other bold interior décor items so that they can stand out as a statement piece.
- Put these lights in rooms where intimate low-lighting is desirable.
Defining the Chandelier
Let's start with chandeliers since they tend to be the most impactful lighting option for the home. What exactly is a chandelier? In short it is a light fixture that has a main body off of which protrudes multiple arms and each arm holds its own socket or lamp. A chandelier does not have to be a large and dramatic statement piece of lighting although it can be.
The world of lighting is changing. There are hundreds of different options available to you in terms of lighting design, light fixtures and light styles. However, the changes are taking place at an even more basic level – with your light bulbs. The traditional incandescent light bulbs that many people still use are being phased out and replaced with new, more energy-efficient bulbs. Don't worry; the transition is big news for the industry but it's easy on you, the consumer!
What are Incandescent Light Bulbs?
Incandescent light bulbs are the traditional light bulbs that most of us have been using all of our lives. They were the standard in the lighting business (especially for residential lighting) for many decades. However, they are rapidly falling out of favor with both consumers and the industry as a whole. That is because these light bulbs are not energy-efficient. They burn out quickly and so need to be replaced often and they waste a lot of energy while they're working. This is bad for the earth and it also means higher electricity bills for consumers.
Common Replacements for Incandescent Light Bulbs
Consumers who are interested in replacing their incandescent light bulbs with more energy-efficient options have had several options emerge on the market in recent years. The two major options that people select when opting to replace their incandescent light bulbs are:
1. Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs (CFLs). These light bulbs use only about one third of the energy that traditional incandescent light bulbs use. They are fairly affordable for the consumer. As a result, these have quickly become the new standard in the lighting industry, replacing the old incandescent bulbs as the favored choice in lighting.
2. Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). These light bulbs are even more energy-efficient than CFLs. The individual bulb costs a lot more than a CFL bulb so it can be pricey to get started with using these bulbs. However, LED bulbs can last many years and are more energy-efficient than CFLs so they're a wise investment for people seeking to switch away from incandescent light bulbs. They are especially common bulbs for under cabinet lighting, task lighting and lights on dimmer switches although improvements in their technology and some reduction in their price is making it possible that LEDs may ultimately replace CFLs as the brand new industry standard in lighting.
Selling a home is tough right now, I don't need to tell you that. The value of houses is low and there is a lot of competition on the market. However, it is possible to make your home appealing enough to find a buyer. Paying attention to your home's lighting is crucial for setting your house apart from the rest of the crowd and increasing the likelihood of a sale.
Why Lighting Matters
Does changing the lighting of a home really make a difference to buyers? Yes. Light has the power to flatter a space or make it unattractive. The right lighting can have a major impact on the aesthetic appeal of the home. A dark home looks dingy and unappealing. A home with glaring lights feels harsh. A space with the right amount of task lighting and ambient lighting is warm and inviting, something that buyers are definitely looking for. The right light fixtures can also enhance the design of the home, making it more elegant or more contemporary.
Tips for Improving Existing Lighting
The first thing that you should do is to look at the lights in the home that you want to keep. There are things that you can do to improve existing lights in the home to make the house more interesting for buyers. Top tips include:
- Make sure the paint is right for your lighting. You may have great ambient lighting but if your walls are painted a dark color then the light will get absorbed and the room will seem dark. Re-paint with bright and light colors to enhance the value of your existing lighting.
- Open the curtains. Although your existing lighting is important, there's nothing better than natural sunlight. Make sure that you let as much of it in as possible when showing off the home to potential buyers.
- Clean all of your light fixtures. This allows the brightness of the lights to shine through and also makes the fixtures themselves more appealing. What a great cheap way to make it more likely that your home will sell quickly.
- Check that all of the lights are working properly. A big mistake that homeowners' make is that they forget the little details. A buyer who walks into a room and turns on a switch only to find that it doesn't work is immediately turned off.
- Listen to your lights. If any of them are making a slight humming noise then they are too old and need to be replaced to increase the likelihood of a sale.
Tips for Adding New Lighting
There will be some areas where you want to add new lighting to enhance the value of the home. Here are some tips for adding that important lighting:
- Start with the exterior. Curb appeal is the most important part of getting a home to sell. Make sure that your home's exterior is well lit with attractive outdoor light fixtures.
- Replace outdated main light fixtures. If you walk into a room and the first thing that you see is an out-of-date light fixture then you're going to look at the rest of the space with a bad taste in your mouth. Invest in upgrading the main light fixtures that get attention in the home.
- Replace lamps with better all-room lighting. Task lighting is terrific when you're actually living in a space. However, when you're looking at whole room to see if you want to live there, you need great ambient lighting. Lamps look like clutter to potential homebuyers and the wrong style of lamp can turn off buyers who would otherwise be interested in the home. Invest in better ambient lighting to avoid this problem.
- Update the light fixtures in the bathroom. This is one area where the task lighting rule doesn't apply. You should make sure that there's great lighting around the bathroom mirror. The fixtures should be in keeping with the style of the home. An impressive bathroom can clinch the sale of a home and lighting helps with that.
- Add LED lights in kitchen cabinets. This is a great little touch that appeals greatly to buyers, making it noticeable that you've really put some effort into making the house convenient and comfortable for them.
Have your real estate agent or a good friend walk through your home once you've completed your lighting updates. They can provide you with an outside perspective as to whether any additional lighting changes should be made to make the home more appealing to buyers.
Lighting is something that is made all over the world. In fact, many of the best light fixture designs come from amazing exotic locations. That said it is important to try to buy American-made products as often as possible. Luckily options are beginning to really open up for people who want terrific American-made lights.
Why Buy American?
Buying products that are produced in America helps to improve the American economy. Unemployment is still shockingly high. If we choose to support businesses that employ people in United States factories in stores then we are effectively supporting local jobs.
Additional reasons to buy American include:
- It supports American working standards. There are laws here (such as child labor laws) that do not necessarily exist in other countries. Buying American made products supports those working standards.
- Buying American often means supporting green efforts. There are environmental standards for the factories here that aren't always in place in other places. This is important when it comes to lighting as more and more consumers seek to be greener in their own lighting usage.
- Sometimes American lighting may be less expensive than other options. This is due to reduced shipping costs although it does vary depending on many other factors.
Options for American-Made Lighting
You may be ready to consider buying American-made lighting but just don't know where to start. Some of the top lighting choices right now in this category include:
There are some people who enjoy very simple lighting with a few easy curved lines. Then there are those of us who prefer detailed, intricate geometric designs. If you fall into the latter category (or are just looking for something truly distinct in lighting) then you absolutely have to check out the Schonbek Geometrix line of lights. Covered in gorgeous Swarovski crystals, these high-tech light fixtures decorate the home much like great jewelry decorates the body.
More than just great lines
The most outstanding immediate feature of the Geometrix lights is the cool geometric lines and patterns that make up the designs. This isn't just about triangles and rectangles. You'll find spirals, pyramids, pentahedrons, spheres and more.
However, it's not just the great geometric patterns that make this line of lights so amazing. There are many neat high-tech design features including:
- Distinct pairing of lighting with STRASS Swarovski crystals, an effect that actually change the way that the light interacts with the space in the home
- Combination of halogen, xenon and LED lighting
- Lights with colors that put on light shows in your home
- Chandelier models that can be washed in your dishwasher!
Top Geometrix by Schonbek products
Let's take a closer look at some of the leading products in this amazing line:
- Compact DaVinci LED Chandelier. The DaVinci chandeliers are all pretty impressive. They're decorated with an abundance of luminescent Swarovski crystals. They range in diameter from ten inches to two feet. And yet, these massive balls of incredible light can be taken apart and washed safely in the dishwasher. The LED chandelier in this line takes it to a whole new level. It uses energy-efficient LED lighting in 10, 12 and 15-inch chandeliers that can be hung individually or grouped together for a neat constellation effect. The LED lights can be programmed to show off different colors. Great for parties and creating different moods in the home! And yes, it's still dishwasher safe.
What could be better than a beautiful chandelier? How about a beautiful chandelier that is designed specifically to benefit a great cause? Crystorama, a manufacturer of amazing lighting products, really wowed customers when they created a terrific light fixture specifically to benefit the families of children with cancer.

One of the most wonderful things about summertime is that the sunlight stays out longer for us to enjoy it. That's one of the reasons that summer barbecues are so popular. You can start dinner outside in the evening and still have plenty of time left to enjoy it before the sun goes down. If your barbecue is a good one, though, the party will still be going as the fireflies begin to come out. You don't want to have to end a great barbecue just because the hour is getting late. That's why it's important to make sure that you have good outdoor lighting for summer.
The first thing that you will want to do is to consider updating your outdoor lighting to suit both the mood of a barbecue and the style of your home. Some great summer options for updating outdoor lighting include:
- Outdoor hanging lanterns. These lanterns will beautifully light up your outdoor seating area all year long. They add a gorgeous glow that enhances the spirited mood of your barbecue.
- Pathway lights. You don't want the latecomers to the barbecue to trip over themselves when they arrive. You also don't want to shock them with your usual bright outdoor lights. Add some modern, fashionable pathway lights to the arrival area for your guests.
- Deck lights. If you have an outdoor deck for your summer barbecue then small LED deck lights are a must-have. They provide an energy-efficient way to keep the area safely lit without making it too bright for you to enjoy.
In addition to these more permanent changes, you will want to get some temporary outdoor lighting just for your summer barbecues. Top choices for temporary lighting include:
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has recently announced that there will be a new labeling system for all light bulbs that will start appearing on packaging in approximately one year. This new system is designed to make it simpler for consumers to understand the different types of light bulb options that are available to them. This is terrific since we are seeing an increasingly broad range of different lights with their own benefits and drawbacks. However, you do have to be able to understand what you're reading on the labels or the information won't be of much use to you. This guide should help you to get a solid grasp on that important information.
Basics About the New Labeling
The new labeling will help you to better understand the options that you have for buying light bulbs. The labeling will appear on traditional incandescent light bulbs, compact fluorescent light bulbs and the increasingly popular LED light bulbs. These bulbs all have their pros and cons; being able to read the labels accurately will allow you to choose the right bulbs for each of the different light fixtures in your home. The new labeling will include front-of-package labeling with information about brightness and cost of the bulbs as well as in-depth back-of-package labeling (described below).
Why It Matters That You Choose the Right Light Bulbs
If you select the best light bulb for each of your home lighting needs then you can achieve the following benefits:
- Save money. Cheaper light bulbs are appropriate in some places in the home. Longer-lasting light bulbs that save more money over time are appropriate in other places. Choosing the best bulb for each fixture allows you to save the most money on your lighting.
- Save energy. Selecting the most energy-efficient light bulbs for your home will allow you to conserve energy. This green action can further save you money on your electricity bills.
- Obtain ideal lighting. The right light bulbs will provide high-quality lighting for your home, making it more comfortable and more aesthetically pleasing.
Holophane is one of the strongest names in the history of lighting. Established in 1898, Holophane is one of the only lighting manufacturers that dates back to the nineteenth century and yet is still relevant to home design today. The company is widely known because of the fact that it makes residential, commercial, industrial and even emergency lighting. The company even provided important lighting contributions to the war effort during World War II! Of course, it's their residential lighting that will likely interest you the most.
What makes this company stand out is a product called Endural. This is their trademarked name for a specific type of borosilicate glass reflector that is used in all of their lighting. This type of glass stands out because it provides a unique combination of both upwards-shooting lighting and downwards-shooting light. The result is a steady stream of even light coming from the Holophane light fixtures. Those ugly dark spots that you sometimes experience with household lighting aren't present when this technology is used.
Although the Endural name is trademarked, there are many different lighting companies that now use this two-directional style of lighting. In fact, whenever you see lighting fixtures that are designed to create vintage light, it is very likely that you are seeing lighting that's been inspired by this historic brand. The vintage look adds to the ambiance of your home by giving it a very classic decorative style. For example, a Halophane aged bronze pendant light uses both the vintage lighting and the historic bronze detailing to evoke a strong sense of décor from a bygone era.

The life of a professional triathlete is not as glamorous as it might seem.
A few months ago Roman Mica chatted with Boulder, CO based Mark VanAkkeren (AKA Marky V) about racing career and what' s it is like to be a pro triathlete. You can listen to that interview HERE.
This weekend Marky V looked like a winner at St. Anthony' s Triathlon when he rocked the very rough swim (coming out of the water first) only to....we' ll let him tell the story.
This is his account of what happened from his web site after he got on the bike:
"At tampa airport typing from crackberry.
Great swim. First out and felt smooth and strong.
Solid bike hanging in 2nd/3rd for 18miles (matty and andy).
called for failure to stager....uh....where? I' m a million miles
behind? Do a stop and go, am cranking on the bars to get back up to
speed with my head down. Look up right before plowing into the back of
the ref motor bike stopped in the road (I should have looked but he
should have not stopped in the middle of a thin two lane road).
in immense pain. Never have hurt that bad even with broken bones. Lots
of blood on my suit (luckily teflon coated so was able to clean it off
and save it). Med crew arrives. Treated rather abruptly then left to
fend for myself. Ice arm and chill with dude who' s yard I was in.
HTFU/BAMF-it after seeing CAF athletes out there and ride one armed
back to T-area.
Get back. See med staff. Send me to hospital.
Get stiches and tetanus shot. Baaaadly bruised. Lots of pain but others
have had to deal with worse. Doc (former french pro, said he raced
paris-roubaix) says I shouldn' t look so good..."You are very very very
lucky." (Thanks big dude :) Sprint to hotel, clean up, pack bike one handed, drop off car, catch blue van, get to airport.
Flight in an hour. Going home to the mountains.
Give thanks everyday for that."

MAG America Announces Release of Documentary on Landmine Crisis in Angola
MAG America Executive Director, Jennifer Lachman, addresses the unique challenges in that country. "The fact that people are actually living in suspected hazardous areas and we essentially have to clear inside of people's homes is an appalling indicator of the extent of contamination," she said."Despite the civil war in Angola ending ten years ago, it is one of the most desperate situations we have seen."
In December 2012 at the 12 th Meeting of States Parties to the Ottawa Convention, Santana Andre Pitra Petroff, Chairman of the Inter-sectoral Demining and Humanitarian Assistance Commission in Angola, reiterated the need for a 5-year extension to formulate a plan to meet obligations as a signatory to the Ottawa Convention to remove all the landmine contamination in Angola, fuelled by United States and former Soviet Union interests as an extension of the Cold War. "It is common knowledge that Angola was one of the most mined countries in Africa and the Angolan people still thinks that the anti-personnel minescontinueto be violators of the basic political, civil, cultural and socio-economic development of the country," he said.
MAG America is determined to improve the humanitarian crisis within this country through the continued commitment to removing the deadly remnants of conflict that put the lives and future of Angolans in danger.

As Luke and Noah walked down the hall toward Noah's dorm room, many of the other students turned to gawk and stare. The couple was openly flirting, bumping hips, holding hands, kissing necks, and finally fumbling through the door into Noah's room.
"Whoa, I'm out," said Noah's roommate as he jumped off his bed, textbook in hand.
"Oh, my God," Noah said, giggling and pulling Luke to him. They laughed and kissed as they locked the door, Luke pulling his own shirt off.
"Don't you have to put a tie on the door or something?" Luke asked, pulling Noah's shirt off and letting out a quiet moan as his man's flesh was revealed.
"We never did before," Noah said, but nevertheless, he walked over to his closet and pulled out the tie he had received from Luke for Christmas.
Unlocking and opening the door, Noah quickly wrapped the tie around the doorknob as the man across the hall from him--Jared or something--quirked an eyebrow and laughed.
"I'm going to fuck my boyfriend," Noah explained, and then slammed the door shut.
Luke reached around Noah from behind, rubbing his palms against Noah's chest. "I like when you say 'fuck'."
"I'm going to fuck you," Noah said, turning around fast and kissing Luke hard. Luke pressed himself as close to Noah's body as he could, wanting Noah's warm skin against him and in him.
A small moan escapes his lips when he finally feels Noah's naked chest against his own.
Noah licks and bites his way from his mouth to his ear and whispers:
"seeing you stand up for what you believe in turns me into a little pool of hot wantness. I am going to fuck your brains out and when we are all sweaty, sticky and contempt I am gonna do it again."
Luke just whines, his mouth crashing on Noah's again, all teeth and tongue.
Noah pushes Luke towards the bed, unbuttoning his jeans in the meanwhile. He manages to push Luke on the bed and pulls of his jeans at the same time. Luke is not wearing any underwear and that makes Noah even more aroused.
He looks at the blonde god on his bed, his eyes dwell from those gorgeous blond straws to the intense brown eyes, down the pleasure trail, ending on his lovers incredible hard on.
His mouth waters and he decides to get a little taste, he needs to taste Luke. When he kneels down and let his tongue circle the top, Luke's hands grab on to his hair, pulling him closer.
"fuck… Nooo-ah" Luke moans.
"I will soon" Noah grins before he opens his mouth to suck on Luke erection. Just softly but Luke is done being soft.
He moves his hips and pulls Noah's head closer till Noahs mouth covers him completely. He is not able to stop moving and he fucks Noah's mouth,

Dix Capital Bureau
COLUMBUS -- Two statewide officeholders are urging lawmakers to sign off on increased penalties against public officials who use public funds to support election campaigns.
Auditor Dave Yost and Secretary of State Jon Husted could deter such activities in the future.
"Public money may not be used to influence an election," Yost said during a press conference at the Statehouse Tuesday. "... We're working with leaders in the Legislature to close a loophole in Ohio law. Even though it says thou shall not use public money for politics, it doesn't say what happens to the guy who shalt."
House Bill 326 was introduced recently by Republican Reps. Jeff McClain, from Upper Sandusky, and Brian Hill, from Zanesville, in response to an audit by Yost's office that identified improper spending by the Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority.
Yost said that office illegally loaned nearly $67,000 to a political action committee promoting a levy to support TARTA.
Under Ohio law, such outlays are prohibited. However, state law provides only for the reimbursement of the public funds, with no further penalties for those involved.
Under HB326, public officials who use public funding to support election campaigns could face misdemeanor criminal charges.
"What I believe will happen as a result of this legislation is that people will begin to see that they will be held accountable on a personal level if they do these things," Husted said. "I think it will serve as a swift deterrent from misuse of public dollars for political purposes."
The bill will have its first hearing before the House's Criminal Justice Committee this week.

Re: 4,5k RED One MX Material displayed at about quarter size in Color in response to Fuchur86
Well, how are you viewing this? What external monitor and IO card? The Kona 3 only supports 2K output, and will scale that to 1080 for viewing on an external broadcast monitor. The Kona 3G and Decklink 4K will do 4K, so that leave us with monitoring. There are 4K monitors...are you using one of those?
Grading with Color requires an IO card and external monitor. The Viewer in the Color interface is extremely innaccurate.

Re: 4,5k RED One MX Material displayed at about quarter size in Color in response to Shane Ross
I figured it out. At least I believe I did.
r3d Files come with Quicktime wrappers - basically Reference Clips, that are linked to the r3d files. There are 4 wrappers for each file: Full, High, Medium, Proxy. Full in my case would be 4480x1920, which is too large for Color to handle, so it seems to fall back on the High wrapper, which has 2k resolution. I now rendered my sequence to ProRes422HQ with 444 Chroma sampling with REDCINE-X and downscaled to 4k 2:1 so Color can handle it. Works like a charm. Although the color range seems to have shifted, even though I had Gamma Correction set to off.

Danica Patrick is peeved that a new Indy Racing League rule appears to be punishing her for her petiteness.
USA TODAY reports that starting this season, the driver's weight will be added to their vehicle's overall poundage, which may affect minimum weight requirements. And Danica isn't delighted with the news:
"If someone's going to take the hit it's going to be me. It's disappointing the league decided to do that. In so many other sports, athletes don't get penalized for being too strong, or too tall or too fast."
In order to even up the racing field, the IRL decided that heavier racers would have weight removed from their cars, while lighter drivers (such as the 100-pound Patrick) would have weight added to their vehicles.
Danica has admitted that her small stature may give her a big advantage on the track. A 2005 AP story reported that rival racing teams believe she gains at least 1 mph more because of her tiny size.
IRL spokesman John Griffin says, "We want to make absolutely clear this is not a Danica rule," although Patrick claims that when she asked for a reason behind the new rule, "they didn't really have one." She further laments:
"(It's) just your God-given stature is being penalized. What am I going to do, though? It's not my decision. That's the people higher up (who) made their bed, and they've got to lay in it."
Well, if certain drivers were to hop into certain beds, maybe rules can be reversed.
Or certain drivers can just start eating more - but risk losing photo ops.

We don't promote conferences very often. Those who have seen KPA at conferences know that we attend nearly all of them, speak at most, and engage with dealers as our primary reason for going. These things make promotion of the events challenging as we know that we're getting a benefit from them so it's almost like "double dipping" when we promote them as well.

Praise For…
"Krommes's widening perspective manages to exude both comfort and daring." -- New York Times Book Review "Here the art is spectacular. Executed in scratchboard decorated in droplets of gold, Krommes' illustrations expand on Swanson's reassuring story (inspired by a nursury rhyme that begins, "This is the key of the kingdom") to create a world as cozy inside a house as it is majestic outside."--Booklist, starred review "Inspired by traditional cumulative poetry, Swanson weaves a soothing song that is as luminescent and soulful as the gorgeous illustrations that accompany her words. . . . It is a masterpiece that has all the hallmarks of a classic that will be loved for generations to come."--School Library Journal, starred review "Krommes's breathtaking scratchboard illustrations, in black and white with accents of yellow and gold, embody and enhance the text's message that light and dark, like comfort and mystery, are not mutually exclusive, but integral parts of each other."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review "This volume's artful simplicity, homely wisdom and quiet tone demonstrate the interconnected beauty and order of the world in a way that both children and adults will treasure."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "...in another standout performance by an illustrator, Beth Krommes makes a case for The House in the Night with scratchboard images that are themselves a throwback, but with a welcome kind of familiarity... I can see a night-skittish child taking comfort in this story at bedtime."-- The Washington Post (online) "[A] book of stunning visual simplicity . . . The pictures themselves seem to reach out from domesticity toward infinity."--Liz Rosenberg, Boston Sunday Globe "It's Wanda Gag meets Virginia Lee Burton. And gorgeous. Did I mention gorgeous? Gorgeous."-- Fuse 8 Production (online), by Betsy Bird "[Swanson] has a lyrical style all her own, complemented by Krommes' starkly stunning scratchpaper drawings."-- StarTribune

RE: Daytrip from Selcuk to Pergamon?
I agree, Troy is absolutely worth seeing. I was quite prepared to miss it on our trip but was persuaded otherwise, and am I glad that I was. Also, Gallipoli is quite another experience - absolutely unforgettable and it made a huge impression on all the people in our group.

RE: Daytrip from Selcuk to Pergamon?
I understand that you are coming by the sea from Greek islands to Selcuk? How much time do you want to spent in Turkey?(sorry spent is not the exact word it is better "earn or learn) Pergamon or we Turks say "Bergama" lays at North. There is no direct bus line from Selcuk. You must rend a car or take a bus to Izmir and from izmir again by bus to Bergama.It takes 2-3 hours to Izmir and extra 2-3 hours to Bergama.Time for A daily tour is not enough. You must overnight there. But on the other hand "Didim" or "The Cave of 7 Sleepres" or "Home of Mother Mary" are in selcuk. In Didim you will wonder the ruins of Apollon Temple.
PS: In Greece there are no important ruins. Wait! you will see the real ruins in Turkey.
May you come happily and return happily.
