Why We Need Energy Alternatives NOW

What Will Americans Do When The Oil Runs Out?
Time is running out on cheap petroleum fuels. Recent research states that we have little more than 40 years of steadily decreasing supplies of that type of energy while concurrently its price grows prohibitively high. Then it's no more cheap oil. Then what?
That's the question being asked and answered - by Howard Johnson, an engineer and author of the book Energy, Convenient Solutions: How Americans Can Solve the Energy Crisis in Just Ten Years (
"We are running out of oil, period," Johnson said. "That being said, it's time to get down to the business of seriously developing alternatives. It is paramount that we develop realistic solutions to the energy crisis from among the multitude of products and systems that are in use, under development, or even latent ideas in the minds of America's creative genius. We must collect and examine descriptions of fuels and energy systems -- past, present, and future -- and the many possible and practical ways to replace fossil fuels with renewable fuels or energy systems."
According to Johnson, new combinations of old and emerging technologies promise amazing new ways to generate, distribute, and use energy of many kinds. The large variety of proven technologies and systems is astounding. There is no single right answer. The astonishing thing is the variety. In the long run, some will flourish while others will fall by the wayside."
He thinks the U.S. should select new energy solutions based on some or all of the following criteria:
·be comparatively inexpensive to use.
·be developed using environmentally sound, sensitive principles.
·be far easier, simpler and less expensive to implement than systems like the hydrogen fuel cell system.
·be aaptable to our existing infrastructure with minor changes.
·use raw materials we already have or that can be developed here, locally.
·be applicable to existing vehicles with upgrades or conversions.
·be useable with existing IC (Internal Combustion) engines of all types.
·be developed using existing, evolving technology able to be essentially complete within 10 years.
·create a system that is a net zero contributor of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
·use evolutionary as opposed to revolutionary changes -- a good start to becoming constantly improvable, adaptable systems that drive numerous growing and improving technologies.
·be developed by America-based industry with the many resulting substantial benefits to our nation--social, political, and economic.
"It matters not to a driver what powers his vehicle when he presses down on the accelerator pedal." Johnson added. "Any power system that provides adequate mobile power economically when that pedal is pressed will satisfy his needs. All of the new systems could replace fossil fuels as the prime energy source for our nation and even the world. We need to develop an entirely new and more efficient means of generating, transporting, storing and using energy that will generate profitable domestic business, good jobs and stop the hemorrhaging of billions of American dollars to nations that hate us."
Howard Johnson grew up during the depression and spent most of his life in Ohio and Indiana. He graduated from Purdue University in 1949 with a degree in chemical engineering, and is extensively well-read in many scientific and engineering journals. He became a professional engineer in 1953 and is conversant in many fields of science and engineering in addition to energy. These include astrophysics and cosmology.

We CAN be energy independent if the powers that be will let us. We all know about drilling being stopped in the Gulf of Mexico (at least by the US), but now Cuba is stepping in to drill the same gulf waters so I'm sure Obama is very pleased with this new development. What you may not know is the US has not built an oil refinery in over 20 years (thanks to the 'greenies' who feel the planet should be preserved for animal life, not human life) so the prices are driven up by sending our oil to Europe to be refined and then shipped back. Ridiculous! We don't import the majority of our oil from the middle east, but from Canada, and newer and more innovative ways to extract oil are being found daily. By the way, oil and petroleum products are NOT only used for combustion engine lubrication, but is almost ever part of our lives. Plastic products for is one example and here is a link to others:
And here is a very dumb question that no one thinks to ask about hybrid vehicles; an electric car runs on solar power collected in the battery or by plugging it into an electric outlet, but what keep the engine of that electric car lubricated? What parts of those vehicles are built with plastic (another petroleum product). We're 'drinking the kool-aide' so to speak when we don't make an informative investigation into these things but rely, like children, on what we are told. No wonder we're in so much trouble!

I'm totally new at this. I installed WordPress, and it seems to be working fine -- except that I can't publish anything. I've set up a "publishing" page on the Options page, and I have uploaded that page to my server, but when I click on publish, WordPress implies it's done its job, but when I click on "go to site," I see a blank page. Nothing has been published.
Also, while I'm at it, how do I create an RSS feed and a permanet link for the postings, and what's the procedure to do podcasting?
Any help will be much appreciated.

Street Scenes, Chester
6 Reviews
6 Reviews
Favorite thing: Just the other side of the wall from the Roman garden is this lovely row of tiny timber and sandstone cottages built as almshouses in about 1650. And no you haven't miscounted - only six of the original nine survive! Take a little detour from your walk around the walls to see them.
Favorite thing:
Chester Cross stands at the junction of Chester's four main streets and marks the heart of the city. Carved from local sandstone in the 15th-century, the Cross was badly vandalised during the English Civil War. Now much restored, it forms the backdrop for Chester's popular Town Crier who greets visitors from its steps at 12.00 noon, Tues-Sat, from Easter to October.
Fondest memory: A sunny June day and we met Steve and Susan Tilly at the cross here. We listened to the town crier as he greeted people from atound the world in their native tongue including Geordie language! Steve answered a question about chester and got a postcard for his efforts. It was a perfect day for walking around the walls and enjoying the sights of Chester.
Fondest memory: The black and white timbered buildings in Chester may not be as old as you think....many are from the victorian age. Even so the styles around are pleasant to look at. Take time to enjoy some of the detail closer up on the buildings.
Favorite thing: Chester does have other styles of architecture other than black and white timbered buildings. The Odeon picture house in Northgate, just past the Town Hall, is a good example of the Art Deco style.
Favorite thing: Not only a place to borrow books but Chester's library has this splendidly decorated brick and terra-cotta facade of the former Edwardian Baroque motor works as part of its complex.
Favorite thing: Some of the buildings are so cute being scrunched inbetween other buildings with their own liitle row - like the one shown here.

Remember the old Seinfeld episode where George gets caught "double-dipping?" Is it really all that bad? With Super Bowl Sunday straight ahead, many of us will be putting out the chips and dip. Check out this video from the WSJ'S Christina Tsuei, who spoke with microbiologists, for their take on the "double-dip."
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, under questioning from voters in recent days, has switched positions on a 2007 executive order he issued mandating the vaccination of all young girls before they enter sixth grade to ward off cervical cancer. Mr. Perry's order that Texas school girls receive the vaccine, Gardasil, was overturned by the state legislature and never got off the ground. But it still has roiled conservatives and Christian groups for years. WSJ's Alicia Mundy discusses why this has become a hot topic. Download MP3
Here, on the posterior of many an American professional, lies one of the more unexpected twists in the evolution of personal finance. At a time when people seem increasingly reliant on their smartphones for all manner of interactions with the world, that oldest of handheld devices, the wallet, has remained a surprisingly enduring accessory. SmartMoney.com's Charles Passy tells us why they can drag you down and what to do about it. Download MP3

Clemens Is Indicted on Perjury Charges
Roger Clemens is in hot water again, this time for allegedly lying to Congress about his involvement with steroids. You might remember that Clemens asked for this hearing himself in 2008 in order to help clear his name. It might wind up having the opposite effect, says WSJ's Devlin Barrett. Download MP3
In the ultimate "Revenge of the Nerds", television writers (many of whom were the victims of wedgies and "Kick Me" signs in their youth) are fighting back at those who wronged their own form of artistic expression.

I have found that it is often a waste of time talking to industrial suppliers when trying to find ingredients for old processes. Try instead, a specialist art shop that can supply raw ingredients to make paint in the style of Van Gogh or Picasso.
Nitro-cellulose varnish (lacquer) is no longer used in the quantities that it was and most people use an acrylic or polyurethane varnish - Neither of these would have been available to the Lumière brothers in 1903. It is likely that they used Shellac for the final coating.

Hello. My A6 2001 quattro V6 2.8 shows a warning light of a container with liquid spouting out. I added window washer fluid as someone suggested but that isn't it. I don't know what the picture means. Can you tell me? I'm looking for a manual too. Thanks. Miesse

Well I can suggest a quick trip to the dealer, service manager should be able to tell you in 2 secs! That said if It was mine and I was worried about that light I would check the Radiator as well, that's far more important than the washer being empty.

OKay, so I have a really good shape 201F that I am enjoying using. I just have a few questions on battery life when using CF lenses, and the little light seal/flap behind the mirror? I understand that the focal plane shutter becomes a blind and is the equivalent of the barn doors on a regular 500 series when using the CF or C lenses. What I don't know is whether the battery is used for this blind function when the body is set to use the CF lenses, and more importantly if it DOES use the battery power, how long it might last? Some of my work involves low light and long exposure times. I will carry a spare just in case, but it would not hurt to know how shots I might get etc.
Then there is the issue of the light seal/flap behind the mirror. It's part #105133 that was torn off and caught up in the springs on the gliding mirror mechanism. The service info at this link :-
http://www.scribd.com/doc/3011752/Ha...d-service-info Page# 103 of 193 shows how it fits in. It states that ANY of the 200 series coming in for service should have this replaced. So my guess is is that it's a high failure part. I was lucky I caught it before it jammed into the focal plane shutter!!!
That said, I ran two rolls of film after I noticed this and shot them in really bright sunlight and had no fogging issues whatsoever. I am not sure if this truly is a super important part. Does anyone know about this 'feature' in their 200 series blad? Does this seal stop light hitting the film via the WLF area?? I have no idea what it's for.
Like I said, everything else with this camera is tip top. It shows hardly any sign of use.
Thanks Andy

I was about to thumb you up for mentioning The Dreamers 'til I got to "pretentious snoozefest." Thumbs down instead! #BestFilmof2004
You need to see more movies then. It got mixed reviews at best (61% on Rotten Tomatoes) and 0 nominations for any major awards. The New York Post summed it up well: "A kind of art-house Showgirls — which actually exceeds Showgirls in its self-indulgence, shallowness and sheer stupidity."
But whatever. Tits!
The summary paragraph makes you the best film critic this planet has known. Suck on that, Andre Bazin!
Yeah, I always go to the New York Post for the most astute film criticism. And I saw over 120 movies released in 2004. I don't let Rotten Tomatoes or the "major awards" determine my thinking, I judge for myself.
Point taken. The NYPost is a total rag, but in this one instance, they summed up nicely how many feel about "The Dreamers".
Because it was not, by any objective measure, that year's best film. Perhaps you should've hash-tagged "PersonalFavoriteOf2004″ instead.
I thought it was implicit that my calling something "Best Film" (as opposed to the Oscar category that's titled "Best Picture") was a personal opinion, for which there is no "objective measure." But I guess I have to explain every little thing on the Interwebs.
Hell yes. The Dreamers was great.
one of the most beautiful french actresses of current generation. a body to kill for and die for!!!!
highly under rated as far as acting is concerned just watch any other film of hers other than dreamers and u will know what i am talking about. hell just watch penny dreadful

One of our favorite '94s. 91 points Robert Parker: "Readers should take note that the Tesseron family is making major efforts to rebuild the image of Pontet-Canet and establish it as one of the finest wines of the northern Medoc. Quality has soared since the 1994 vintage, but prices have not yet caught up with the "new" Pontet-Canet. However, this is not a forward, luscious, rich, sweet, fruity style of Pauillac (such as the charming Pichon-Lalande and Haut-Batailley), but rather, a dense, masculine, massively-styled wine meant for long-term cellaring. One of the finest as well as longest-lived wines of the vintage, this opaque purple-colored 1994 needs 7-10 years of cellaring. A rich, impressive, full-bodied wine, it represents the finest Pontet-Canet produced since the 1961. This full-bodied, purely made wine is crammed with blackcurrant fruit, as well as forbiddingly tannic and backward. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2025. Impressive!" (02/97) According to Wine Spectator: "Plenty of berry flavors, with spice notes and a mild, herbal undertone. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a fruity finish." (01/97)

I cleaned and TR'd this line, but never led it. I think Josh Smith was the first to do the lead.
I still have a pile of info on most of this stuff sitting around somewhere, maybe at some point I'll dig it out and upload it.

This climb has a 2-bolt anchor with quicklinks. The anchor might benefit from these being replaced with chains.
I think I heard somewhere that Walt W. put the anchors in here a while ago, so people in the houses above would be less aware of climbers below.
Oh yeah- this roof is amazing and way bigger than Lens Roof at the Overlook- wish I could climb it. Getting to the lip is powerful and hard already, and the next 2 moves are still not clear to me.
I'm not a good person for rack beta for this climb, but 2 each of #0.5 and #0.75 camalots is probably a good idea.

An assistant general counsel ensures a company's compliance with relevant laws and regulations. They work closely with the business team to develop policies, practices, and guidelines concerning state, federal, and international compliance with laws and regulations. Their main focus is on laws and regulations that concern the company; for example, many insurance companies use general counsel, who are concerned mainly with insurance laws.Read More...
Assistant general counsels manage compliance programs, including business ethics, trading, information security, anti-corruption, date security, privacy policies, and other economic sanctions. They develop and review policies and practices, as well as manage regulations for the company such as form filings and rules. They manage dissemination within the company of information needed to maintain compliance with the law. Assistant general counsel also support legal initiatives and disseminate compliance information in claims, underwriting, and operations.
Assistant general counsels are required to have a law degree from an ABA-approved law school. They must possess working knowledge of state and federal regulations and be able to practice law in the state in which they become employed. They also need to have knowledge of international laws and practices and have some compliance experience relevant to their industry. Candidates must have excellent written and verbal communication skills; they must also be self-driven and a self-starter, as most of the time they work alone.

Though it's uncommon, some Assistant General Counsels move into roles as VPs and General Counsels, where they can earn incomes averaing out to a slightly higher $171K per year. An Associate General Counsel role is the most prevalent career advancement for Assistant General Counsels. Paychecks for that role are $136K on average. The General Counsel position is another common transition for Assistant General Counsels; in this role, salaries are typically at the $150K mark.
Assistant General Counsels report using a diverse set of skills on the job. Most notably, facility with Mergers and Acquisitions, Intellectual Property (IP), and Legal Compliance are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 49 percent, 43 percent, and 8 percent, respectively. Those listing Legal Document Review as a skill should be prepared for drastically lower pay. Legal Research and Real Estate also typically command lower compensation. Most people who know Contract Negotiation also know Legal Compliance and Litigation Case Management.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Assistant General Counsels with a lot of experience tend to enjoy higher earnings. Those in the early stages of their career can expect to make around $76K; however, individuals with five to 10 years of experience bring in $133K on average — a distinctly larger sum. Assistant General Counsels who work for 10 to 20 years in their occupation tend to earn about $185K. Assistant General Counsels who surpass 20 years on the job report pay that isn't as high as one would expect; the median compensation for this crowd sits around $198K.
For Assistant General Counsels, busy Los Angeles offers a higher-than-average pay rate, 49 percent above the national average. Assistant General Counsels can also look forward to large paychecks in cities like Atlanta (+31 percent), New York (+31 percent), Chicago (+25 percent), and Houston (+25 percent). Assistant General Counsels in St. Louis report much lower salaries than the rest of the country — 43 percent below the national average — proving that residence is a major factor in overall pay. Two other places where employers offer below-median salaries are Austin (41 percent less) and Portland (31 percent less).

Authentic Relating Events
This TED Talk video explains why authentic relating events have become so popular.
What are the goals of Authentic Relating Games?
- Teach participants relating skills to understand one another on a deeper level.
- In contrast to traditional informational trainings, when learning is engaging and most importantly, experiential, participants embody the ideas much more profoundly and leave with a visceral understanding of powerful concepts.
- Create a lasting feeling of team connection and togetherness to help the bottom line and enhance day-to-day workplace harmony.
- Allow each team member to see each other as a fellow human being, instead of hierarchical positions or organizational labels, creating genuine connection and affinity.
- Facilitate engaging, highly interactive partner and group exercises that demonstrate authentic relating, in turn helping participants better appreciate who they connect with.
- Create a safe space for participants to discover more about ourselves and how they relate to coworkers and the world around them, while exploring potential relational blind spots.
- Pick up where ropes courses, personality assessments and "trust falls" leave off, offering a deeper alternative for team unity and togetherness.
What does the research say?
- "35% of the variation in a team's performance can be accounted for simply by the number of face-to-face exchanges among team members…Social time turns out to be deeply critical to team performance, often accounting for more than 50% of positive changes in communication patterns, even in a setting as efficiency-focused as a call center." Harvard Business Review, "The New Science of Building Great Teams," Alex Pentland, Director of MIT's Human Dynamics Laboratory
- "When 20% to 40% of the team members were already well connected to one another, the team had strong collaboration right from the start…The most productive, innovative teams were led by people who were both task- and relationship-oriented." Harvard Business Review, "Eight Ways To Build Collaborative Teams," Lynda Gratton, Professor of Management Practice at London Business School
Are you tired of spending way too much money in loud bars with unfulfilling conversations that lack spark or connection?
Are you craving a space where you can talk about something OTHER than "what do you do" or "where did you go to school" and actually connect with people?
Join a growing D.C. community at Authentic Relating Game Nights, a space where you can discover how much more fun and richer it is to BE YOURSELF. ALL are welcome. Bring a friend, bring your partner or come solo! These are NOT singles/dating events.
Authentic Relating Game Nights are inspired by the Game Nights held in San Francisco by AuthenticWorld. Sometimes loud, sometimes intensely quiet, sometimes risky. Always fun and revealing. We are tapping AuthenticWorld for fun and engaging games that we can play ourselves. DC's Authentic Game Nights are designed to give you that same experience with people you've never met before.
What kinds of games are these?
- Imagine a fun playground where you can practice the art of relating with others but in a fun, social atmosphere. They are safe places for taking risks and playing a little more outside our comfort zones and the discovering more about ourselves than we might in our everyday lives. All this is within a light-hearted container which is safe for getting real, taking emotional risks, and personal growth.
- By 'games' we mean fun, highly interactive partner and group exercises that demonstrate and explore authentic relating, getting to know yourself better while at the same time learning to see and appreciate more about everyone you connect with. These games are NOT board games like Chutes & Ladders and checkers.
- By 'authentic' we mean that there is no cookie-cutter mold for how you "should" be or what relating "should look like". Everyone is a complete universe unto themselves, has a unique style, personality, and integrity that is perfectly *them*, and everyone is perfect and amazing as they are (including their belief that they aren't.)
- They're also a chance to have fun and party in a conscious way with great people, going beyond small talk and expected (and sometimes boring) social norms.
- Laughter. Fun. Energy. More genuine connection. Anxiety/excitement (while learning the difference). Relief. Feeling alive and awake. Conversation beyond small talk. Play. Connection. New possibilities. New friends. Insights. Sparks. Challenges. Personal growth. Transformation.
Who can play?
- Adventurous adults of all ages who want more fun, richer connections with people. In a relationship. Single. Old. Young. Short. Tall. It doesn't matter! (Again, these are NOT singles/dating events.)
- You want the opportunity to experience an open-hearted space where people get to "cut through the superficial" and be truly themselves without apology for an evening.
- You enjoy exciting, fun and very juicy social evenings with lots of laughs, plenty of insights, and sometimes sparks flying!
- You are looking for a real, authentic connection with new people and are prepared to take a risk to try something NEW.
"Connecting with people on this deeper level was rich, fulfilling, and pleasantly eye opening. I learned many things about myself that I had never even considered, even throughout my 4 years of deep spiritual introspection. I learned that people connect the most when they are honest about a vulnerable emotion like, "I'm not sure what to say now and that makes me feel uncomfortable." That realness is what helps people to connect. People were given the space and the freedom to be real with each other, to dream big in safe spaces, and to feel deeply understood and appreciated by others who were seeing them for who they really are. It felt so good to be seen in this way. I had an amazing time and I will be back!!! Highly recommend this to anyone with even a slight interest!"
—Mallori Stoller, Washington, DC
"Jeffrey is such a neutral, yet passionate and dedicated facilitator. I have experienced facilitators who have strong, almost overbearing energy (albeit in their own judgement-free way) but Jeffrey always provokes inspiring thoughts with the most trusting finesse, it's a skill I admire and respect to no end."
— Lori Zelman, Alexandria, VA
"Jeffrey has a natural wisdom demonstrated by the insightful questions he poses and the ability to echo and reframe what participants communicate to ensure that their words are most helpful."
— Doug Levine, Washington, DC
"Jeffrey creates a space of safety that allows people to relate to one another straight from the heart."
- Julie Holly, Washington, DC
"Jeffrey keeps it real and is considerate of all who participate. He genuinely cares about people's experiences and his range of life experiences and skills gives him an open mind from which to approach and lead Circling making it a comfortable space."
— Neda Dowlatshahi, Washington, DC

Billie Boutique Montreal Fashionista Blogger Event!
My evening at the Billie Boutique Bloggers event could not have been more perfect. Surrounded by drop dead gorgeous clothes, fellow dazzling fashionistas (and bloggers at that!), champagne, gourmet cupcakes, giveaways, goody bags and shopping discounts… I was in my personal version of heaven!!!
I really admire the team that makes up the Billie Boutique (located at 141 Laurier West), as not only do they share a love for all things fashion, but they are just as addicted to the blogosphere as the guests they invited. Owning and operating their own blog, Billie Girls, they cover everything local from great fashion finds and hotspots to makeup tips and how-to's… everything a girl would ever need to know while living in the cosmopolitan that is Montreal.
This enchanting man got a few of my thoughts about the event and my personal view on style via video to post on the Billie Girls blog… stay tuned for my mini-interview…
The absolute best thing about events like these is meeting the people behind the blogs who attend. I am by no means much of a social butterfly – in fact, it actually terrifies me to approach people… however I lucked out by either being introduced or being approached and in turn met some tres chic little ladies and gentlemen… above Laure Juilliard (right) from the blog Une Parisienne a Montreal. I love the restaurants she reviews and the beautiful foamy lattes that pop out of her pictures and into my mind… Mmmmm… she makes me wanna RUN to those cafes!!!
The store energy was buzzing with excitement and not a soul attending could be found without a smile spread across their face… you can check the picture yourself… I have nothing to hide ;p
Of course I just had to take in all the eye candy around me!!! Racks and racks of brands like Alexis Bittar, Anna Sui, Claudia, Colcci, Cynthia Steffie, Dolce Vita, Drykorn, Ella Moss, Hanky Panky, James Perse, K by Karl Lagerfeld, Miss Sixty, Nougat, Matt & Nat (phew… deep breath…), Tolani, True Religion, Twenty8Twelve, and Velvet (and that's just getting started) you could say that I went a little into sensory overload!!!
I loved the atmosphere of the night… with bloggers comes photographers, video documentation and url swapping! It was a fashion frenzied free-for-all of blog "artistes" capturing the nights ventures through their unique perspectives… snapping up great fashion looks and sharing their discoveries with their best friends and co-workers.
Above, the ever so divine Stephanie Godet from the Modern Antoinette blog… I didn't actually get to meet her in person that night, but have been getting to know her via blogspot ever since… LOVED what she was wearing!
Missaa of Elle M la Mode holds a great insiders look into the world of Montreal Fashion… and I love her feather tassle necklace…
The nights events were impeccably planned… upon arriving guests were signed in and given little detailed place cards walking us through the evenings itinerary. "Grab a drink and a sweet snack here, then head over to the Billie Girls photographer and snap a pic… keep watch of the giveaway draw and don't forget your gourmet chocolate and marshmallow gift bag on the way out!". It was like giving pirates detailed maps to an island of gold… X marks the spot baby!
Here I am, being a good girl and doing what I'm told 😉
Thank you Pierre-Luc for an adventurous and equally fun mini-photoshoot!!! How very glam with the upholstered satin walls!
Pierre-Luc… photographer mastermind… we bonded over our love for extreme heels… *le sigh*
Ok… this is my money shot right here! Look at those cupcakes!!! I am drooling as I type just remembering the ten two that I ate…
Don't you just adore happy people?!?
One of the items I absolutely fell in love with was this leather fringe bag…. my intense love for all things rocker/cowboy (does that even make sense) crippled me from conversations with others while I zeroed in on the beautiful detailing of this uber trendy piece. If I wasn't so focused on so many other things that night… you would most probably be seeing it in one of my 514 Outfit Posts… and the price… very reasonable in comparison to its breathtaking craftsmanship!
Co-owner of the Billie Boutique, the striking Annie di Lalla (left… obviously… once again, I'm a loser…) indulges in her passion for fashion and styling every day, a dream she has always held close to her since she was a kid. Annie and Veronique, you should be very proud of your sensational boutique and the collection of unique pieces that make it up! I am quite a fan of your obvious hard work, dedication and diversity (blog, online store, boutique). Kudos to the both of you!
Omg… are these shoes not TO DIE FOR?!? I can't help but picture what they would look like paired with faded skinny jeans and a vintage burgundy Bottega Venetta clutch… *drools*
Hehehehe… I love this pic… everyone doing their own thang… say cheese!
The Smarties clutch… as I would like to call it… too cute!
A very vintage Chiquita… with a beautiful retro hat…
Breaking into the goody bag… Mmmmmmm….
Do you see her eyes?!?! Such a beautiful shade of blue… wowsers!
I met some wonderfully talented people, so thank you all for making my night such a memorable experience! You can follow Billie on twitter and Facebook for updates on events, blog posts and Montreal happenings…and of course to sneak a peek at all the other bloggers who attended the event.
Be sure to stop by and check them out if you are ever in the plateau area – I know I sure will 😉Posted under designer, fashion, montreal, Uncategorized by Robyn

text: The Barber Institute of Fine Arts In 'Giving' New fundraising projectsDental HospitalOur supportersCampus developmentsStudent philanthropyGifts in willsGivingGiving to BirminghamOur projectsGiving changes lives Back to 'Alumni' Nearly 80 years ago, the Barber Institute of Fine Arts was founded on philanthropy. Now, philanthropy has a role to play in supporting world-class facilities for this world-class collection. Help us build a new exhibition gallery, new learning spaces, and new and improved visitor facilities. Barber Institute Mission Statement "to promote the study and encouragement of art and music for the University of Birmingham and the wider public" The University is privileged to have the Barber Institute on its campus, and countless numbers of students, staff, alumni, and visitors have enjoyed free access to this precious collection for the better part of a century. For many, the Barber was their first experience of fine arts or classical music, and it is widely and fondly remembered. This redevelopment will result in new exhibition and education spaces, and new visitor facilities. These will allow us to host more temporary exhibitions, minimise the disruption to our own collections, broaden our lifelong learning and outreach activities, and engage new audiences for years to come. Think of how often you visited the Barber Institute for free, and give now to support the arts and cultural enrichment. To discuss how you might support the Barber, contact Nick Blinco [+44(0)121 414 6953]. Why do we need this redevelopment? In 2005, the Barber was one of only five galleries outside of London to receive five stars in Britain's Best Museums and Galleries. Two others were the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford University, and Cambridge University's Fitzwilliam Museum. Both of these have undergone major redevelopments in recent years, driven by philanthropic support. In danger of falling behind, the Barber requires urgent and significant redevelopment. The activities in the galleries and associated spaces have long since expanded beyond those originally envisaged, meaning that the space too needs expanding as the Barber seeks to promote new exhibitions, attract new audiences, and engage partner institutions and the local community. What will the redevelopment include? New, permanent exhibition gallery: a new gallery will mean that we do not need to move our permanent collections in order to accommodate temporary exhibitions. This will ensure that the security and conservation of the collection is maintained, and will mean we no longer have to temporarily remove some of our famous permanent works, a source of disappointment for many visitors. The new gallery will enable us to broaden our exhibitions and partnerships within the University and with other galleries from around the U.K. and the world. New Learning Room and Family Space: a new Learning Room for schools will significantly improve our ability to host group visits. It will include cloakrooms and a lunch room, with an improved 'learning gallery'. New café facility: the disappointing lack of refreshment options at the Barber is a recurrent feature in visitor surveys. We will provide a café and conservatory area, providing additional, welcoming space for visitors to spend time and to take lunch. The success of museum cafés is well documented and can transform visitor numbers.

The game (we all must play) Lyrics by Union 13
The game (we all must play) by Union 13
Be aware, because we are all affected
Times have changed, everyone's scared
We've been made to feel decrepit,
weak, poor, tired, broken
Time to bring them down
No more unwilling contestants
I see the signs are all there
And the pawns in this game,
seem slightly aware of the role they
must play through this global affair
Are we living at the peak of mankind's best effort?
And the the truth lies in the the hands of the men
who have everything but, with nothing to lose
with nothing to lose
They're not part of the game that we play everyday
The revolving door of life
there's too many of us to compromise
We're losing our sense as they capitalize
on the game that they made, we all have to play
The game that they made, we don't have to play
Positions will shift and change
Control comes through misconception
Capable of so much more when we face the right direction
Time to set a common goal
Can we connect for communion?
Redefine our cosmic role
Should we come to a resolution?

I have done the "taco" method using the Arista Premium tank from Freestyle. Four sheets fit quite nicely using the cloth-covered elastic bands sold for holding a woman's pony-tail. The tank require quite a bit of develop to fill, but you can get around that by using a dilute developer and doing semi-stand agitation for a longer period of time. The only caution is to make sure there is adequate developer to develop the four sheets (about the same as for a roll of 35m film).
I use HC-110 dilution G (1+119 from 6ml of syrup concentrate).
I can vouch for the screen mesh method. I haven't had any uneven development of my 4x5 negatives since I started using it a few years ago.
I prefer the burrito method. Stick film in a Unicolor print drum & chow down on a prawn burrito from El Palomar in between changing chemistry:D
Have you considered tray developing?
No special equipment needed, you already have an 8x10 tray.
You'll need only about ten minutes of blissful, silent dark (total dark).
Gently rotate them bottom-to top for your standard 120 time.
Use plenty of liquid.
Practice first.
Like dancing with your fingers.
Some people swear by the method.
Some people swear at the method.
You'll never know till you try...
hay this Taco thing is not any thing new Kodak was doing it back in 1910
to 1940s you can see the tank & holder all the time on Ebad
as of now #390253336356 Vintage Metal Kodak Film Pack Tank 2
I use a 3 stack 35mm stainless daylight tank and put 2 4x5's vertically. They standoff the sides nicely and have had no uneven development. Mine holds 1L of chemistry, and I fill to the top (I use rodinal, so its cheap, and generally get 4 - 6 slides out of a liter)
I'd be one that swears AT the tray dev. method. too many scratched negs and uneven Dev.
Plus, 15 - 30 minutes in the total dark isn't so much fun by yourself.

November 29, 2015
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- A proposed change to the Alabama Constitution would make gun ownership a fundamental right in the state.
The proposal also would subject any state gun-control measures to the toughest review by the courts.
Rep. Mike Jones is the Andalusia Republican who sponsored the proposed constitutional amendment. He says it puts added protections for the right to bear arms into the Alabama Constitution. He also says it would stop local governments from implementing overreaching gun control measures.
However, a lawyer with the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence calls the proposal a gift to gun criminals. He predicts it would prompt attempts to undo existing gun laws in Alabama.
Louisiana and Missouri voters have approved similar measures.
