:::::Weekly Street Photography - February 5th::::
The current Weekly Street Photography is here again to share your best
images in this tough but rewarding genre.
You can find the :::
::: where you can post
your candid street portraits.
Next, for street pictures that at one glance tell a story without
needing any words we have the ::: DECISIVE MOMENT CORNER :::
Then we have :::
where you can post photographs that fit in with this weeks theme.
Next we have the :::
CURIO SHOP - odd, bizarre & unusual in SP
for various street photos depicting oddities, which from time to time
we all encounter during our prowls (more about it in the corner's intro).
Below that is the :::
::: where you can post your
personal favorites from masters of street photography of the past!
And finally the :::
::: where you can post
technical tips and/or questions concerning street photography.
General street photos that don't fit in any of the above categories
can be posted in " the Street Photography eXchange " -
(see elsewhere on this forum for the current thread)
You can find the WSP Archives here:
Street photography isn't about architecture; it is the art of
photographing people in the city as they interact with other people,
their surroundings, or with you, the photographer.
As a rule: "STREET" = any public space .
There are many different ways and styles to do street photography.
You can use a longer lens, trying to blend into a background and hoping
people won't notice you, or you can use a wide lens and engage with the
people you are capturing with your camera.
Street photography is a rewarding form of photography where style,
personality, and serendipity become a part of the picture.
And please remember to leave comments/remarks on the works of
others, and not only responses to your own posts .

"Street photography is the poetry of the street."
"Street photography is a state of mind, a way of looking at the world
that is both realistic, per force, and romantic, and thoughtful.
This is HCB's hand, and heart and mind.
"It understands that man, not birds in flight, or insects, or trees,
is the most beautiful mystery in the created world.
But Street photography extends that subset of art, and poetry,
that believes that man does not sit still to be best captured,
that the ineffable mystery of the human heart, and life, is caught
on the wing, that it catches the throat and makes tears rise up
from unexpected places.
"We live like water spiders, striding, and skittering
across the surface of a great ocean of joy and pain
that Street photography crystallizes into that we dare not look at,
really look at, for more than a few seconds at a time."

I, Rhodaby Valerie Harper
As Mary Richards's lovable and self-deprecating best friend Rhoda Morgenstern on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Valerie Harper, too, turned the world on with her smile. Viewers could relate to Rhoda, native New Yorker and struggling working girl, who was unlucky in love and insecure about her weight but who always kept her sense of humor. Valerie was an unknown actress when she won the part that made her famous, and by the time Rhoda, her popular spin-off show, ended, she had won four Emmys and a Golden Globe. The role was groundbreaking. On-screen, she represented a self-reliant new identity for women of the 1970s while off-screen she fought alongside feminists Gloria Steinem and Bella Abzug for equal rights, among other issues that were important to her. Valerie's showbiz journey has taken her from Broadway, where she performed as a dancer and eventually found herself onstage with Lucille Ball and Jackie Gleason, to Hollywood, where she went down in history as one of television's best-loved characters, and back to the Great White Way, where she recently won a Tony Award nomination for her critically acclaimed role as Tallulah Bankhead. Her inspiring story is laced with triumphs and a few transformative obstacles along the way, but she remains upbeat and funny throughout, always confident that no matter what, she's going to make it after all.
Today I Am a Ma'amby Valerie Harper
Valerie Harper has a message for women of a certain age: "Work those laugh lines!" With the irreverence and wit that made her one of television's most beloved personalities, Harper (a. k. a. Rhoda Morgenstern) takes on those phony "fabulous at 50" books written by women whose skin is free of laugh lines and who wouldn't know a cellulite pocket if it bit them on the backside. With her trademark shoot-from-the-hip, call-'em-like-she-sees-'em style, she helps women celebrate, with humor and grace, what it means to be middle aged. Harper's essays explore the treacherous terrain women must travel -- from the tyrannies of fashion to the unmentionables of menopause. She tackles the most perplexing questions of the day: If you wear a size zero, do you exist? Would menopause be revered if it happened to men? Do calories count if you eat standing up? Are dressing rooms fitted with fun house mirrors? Today I Am a Ma'am is the perfect antidote to the youth obsession of our culture, offered by America's most reliable girlfriend. It is Humor Replacement Therapy for midlife women, a book you can pick up when ever you need a laugh or a reminder that midriff drift is not the end of the world.

New Projects - Fresh from the Labs
If you're chasing a picture and music slideshow maker with a decent interface, you may find yourself at home with Videoporama. According to the Web site: "Videoporama is an application for the creation of video sequences established by images or by photos, fixed or livened up. These sequences are assembled in a slideshow by means of transitions of sequence to produce complete videos."
A binary package is provided for those using Debian or Ubuntu, but lo and behold, the package was corrupt when I downloaded it. I'm having a bad month with packages! Still, the all-purpose source package is available, and thankfully, it isn't a pain to use. I was lucky when it came to installing Videoporama, as I had all of the needed libraries installed and didn't encounter errors. Nevertheless, it's unlikely you'll have the same luck. The documentation says you need the following libraries:
Python: version >= 2.5 but not yet 3.x.
Qt: version >= 4.4 (best to use Qt 4.6 and above).
pyqt: version >= 4.x.
pil: version >= ? (Python Image Library).
mjpegtools: version >= 1.8.
Videoporama also makes use of the following external programs: ffmpeg, sox, ppmtoy4m and mplayer.
Head to the Web site and grab the latest source tarball. Extract it, and open a terminal in the new folder. If your distro uses sudo, enter the command:
$ sudo python setup.py install
Otherwise, enter the commands:
$ su # python setup.py install
To run the program, enter:
$ videoporama
When started, a status screen appears telling you what features will and won't be available, especially in regard to the use of certain codecs. If any crucial codecs are missing, you still can add them post-compilation, and the extra sox libraries are a good place to start, especially with MP3 output and the sox ffmpeg package.
Once you're inside the main screen, if you look to your right, there is a section with three tabs. This is where most of your file tweaking will take place—you can select things such as aspect ratio, what audio track to use, overlaid text, zooming options and so on. The default ouput format is VCD/SVCD, but you'll probably want to change that. I chose AVI (XVid/MP3) myself.
Let's make a slideshow. If you look at the icons below the main menu, there's a green box with a + sign on its bottom-right corner. This will add an image, and once something's added, simply repeat the process to add more.
To add a sound file, look in the tab Montage options, where there's a sound file field. Further below is the output section where you can choose the previously mentioned codecs, as well as specify where your video file will end up.
Timing always will be an issue with a slideshow/music combo, and if you want to edit the timing of an individual frame, look in the Zoom and travel tab where there is an option called Time display fixe (presumably a typo).
I've got room for only one more feature, so I'll go with text. The Overlaid text part of the Montage Options applies text to the entire file. If you want to add text to an individual frame, the Image tab's Background text button will do exactly that, and both feature options like placement, font size and so on.
Ultimately, this is a fairly intuitive program after the first five minutes or so of usage. The project could do with some features like auto-syncing the timing of frames with the length of an audio track. And personally, I'd change some of the GUI methodology, but it's a new project, and things may change by the time you read this. At the end of the day, I still recommend Videoporama, and it's been a pretty pain-free ride so far, which is a good sign with OSS projects.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Smaller home, three cats, a need for litterboxes. HALP.
Moving from a two bedroom house to a two bedroom apartment in late June with three cats. We need clever litterbox hacks for our furry friends! [more inside]
Can a stray cat eat this?
I periodically come across stray cats in my city, and I like to feed them. I've gotten into the habit of carrying around a can of cat food in my car for this purpose. My partner told me that he thinks the food inside the can might go bad from sitting in the car while the temperature/seasons change. Is this true? How can I figure out how long I can carry around the cat food without it going bad? (I could switch to carrying dry food, but that's less aromatic and thus less attractive to strays.)
Every dog has his day - but the nights are reserved for the cats.

Starting Phenobarbital for Feline Seizures
My feisty darling Banana had two grand mal seizures on Monday morning and has since had a complete neuro workup including MRI that have essentially ruled out everything except idiopathic epilepsy. He's been on phenobarbital since Monday evening - first by IV in the hospital, and then starting Tuesday night 15mg twice a day at home. And he is a sad little zombie. [more inside]
Cat(s) behavior issues...what to do?
Sister cats, adopted from the shelter very young (~couple months)...are now around 3 years and thriving. Problem is they will randomly get very...agitated? Upset? Freaked out may be the best way to describe this. Not sure what to do or how to go about explaining it to vet without having to force pills down their little throats (this causes more trauma and anxiety!) Tedious details inside. [more inside]
Comparing Crystal Litter
We've recently bought a ScoopFree self cleaning litter box. It is wonderful but we didn't want to keep buying the disposable litter trays for $30 a go so we bought a Forever Litter Tray. Now we need to buy some crystal litter to use with it. [more inside]

my cats love fatty things...why?
I have two 10 year old, part Maine Coon cats(pic of Leo) who love fatty things and I'm wondering if it's a deficiency in their diet? [more inside]
This is the end...and then it's not...and then it is... and then?
Our beloved 18 year old kitty Skye was diagnosed with CRF 3&1/2 years ago. We were told at the time it was pretty bad and that he could have months or years left. We opted not to go with the sub q because he is so skittish already, I wasn't about to make his final time with us miserable. We changed his diet and it helped tremendously. He has his downs where we think it is the end, and then her perks up in a week and is back to normal. This last down was the worst and the shortest. [more inside]

What to do with old cats who are loved but bad for our house/life?
We have 2 cats who are about 15 (we got them when they were 4), and for many years they were like our children. They have grown old and gross, and now that we have real children, it feels like they are keeping us from being able to enjoy our life in our house. More details inside. [more inside]
Winterizing with cats

No Cat Pee Smell Litter Box - Does it exist?
Okay, sorry for this gross question I am about to lay on you. I clean my cats' litter box on a pretty regular basis, scooping it daily (okay, almost daily) and then washing it down when needed. It is large size. What I am finding is the cat claw scrapes go down to the base and it's like the cat pee seeps down into the actual plastic of the box and just makes the box permanently stinky. I tried litter liners and it was a disaster - they ripped them to shreds and it was just extra mess to clean up. Does there exist like a stainless steel litter box base or that material they make space ships out of or something?
Vet Recommendation
Could anyone recommend a fabulous vet for cats in the SF Bay Area? [more inside]
Merry Cats-mas to us!
After a five-month break (our sweet kitty died on Bastille Day), aerosolkid and I are getting a cat (my choice) and a kitten (his choice) the day after Christmas. I want to make sure that they'll each be receptive to the other before we bring them home. I've begun volunteering at the shelter where we'll go, so can spend some extended time with the cats that I like. I currently have my eyes on a particular cat; I put a kitten to his nose one time and he didn't care, but I suspect there's more that I should do. I know how to introduce cats once they're home, but I'd like to have an expectation of success before we get that far. If you've adopted two non-bonded cats at the same time, how did you make sure they'd get along?
The solution to too many cats is... more cats?
Yet another "should I get another pet" question. I have a thirteen-year-old cat. 3 years ago, his longtime kitty companion died, and he was very, very sad. So we got him a new friend to play with, and everyone was happy. Except now my cat is getting old, and he doesn't have the energy to play with the youngster anymore. This has resulted in one being irritated, and the other being confused and irritating (not to mention fat). I think the solution is another, younger cat to keep little brother company, but for some reason the idea of three cats seems weird to me. [more inside]
What kind of Lionel train set should we get? (Caveat: no kids, 2 cats)
My husband, who grew up with Lionel trains, would like to get a new set for the holidays. We have a 1 bedroom apartment, so we're not doing an entire set up. We have no kids, so it doesn't have to be Thomas, but I'm at a loss between O-Gauge and G-Gauge and all the different options! Does anyone have advice? [more inside]

[more inside]
What is the likelihood we picked up worms from our pets?
Our dog had tape worms several weeks ago. Presumably she got them from raw pork fat she got out of the garbage overnight. We gave her medication as prescribed by the vet and they cleared up quickly. We just noticed several small worms sticking to the area around our cat's butt. [more inside]

Best faux cat for nursing home friend?
I want to buy a fake cat for someone who loves cats but can't have one because she lives in a nursing home. Here's what she's looking for (cribbed from a newspaper column she writes): "I just long to hold a cat and enjoy their softness and purring. So, this is my solution: I'm going to look in Walmart for a stuffed cat that talks and meows and purrs. It must be softer than soft and I'll call him Sammy." This seems like it would be purr... well, you know. But it's out of stock. Are there any MeFites out there who can advise me on the best fake cat for grown-ups?
Any thoughts on the safety of giving cats Sleepytime Tea?
Sleepytime Tea gets my cat high, I found out accidentally after dropping a tea bag. I mean, catnip high. Any thoughts as to whether it would be dangerous to cats? Is this a just say no to drugs situation or a pass the pipe situation?
Feeding Teenage Cats
I have two six-month-old kittens. I am worried I'm not giving them enough food. Advice? [more inside]
Cat first aid advice needed
My 13yo cat has a head wound on her forehead by her eye that she will not stop itching. It started out as 3 small scratches (like our other cat had kicked her in the head or similar) but every time it scabs over she itches the scab off and so it has expanded into a hole in her head that is now encroaching on her eye. We've tried putting cat hydrocortisone and lidocaine cream around it, covering it up (can't find anything bandage-like that'll stay on her head), tying a sock on her itching foot (she yanks it off) and putting her in the cone of shame (she itches around it. Somehow). I'd like to avoid a vet visit if possible because they terrify her and I am poor.
Should a Cat Shelter Smell this Bad?
I don't expect an animal shelter to smell like fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies and flower arrangements, but I think I may have hit on a poorly run or at least oversaturated facility. How do I tell? Details inside. [more inside]
I'm the jerk who adopted cats and now cannot keep them..suggestions?
I adopted two stray kittens just under a year ago. I am mildly allergic and planned to keep them temporarily, but grew quite attached. I am constantly on the road for work take them around from hotel to hotel with me, which is not ideal. On top of that, my permanent living situation is changing and I will be living with someone with severe cat allergies. I need to find a home for these two as soon as possible. I have exhausted my possible friends and family options. I really would like them to be able to stay together, as they are quite good buddies. I don't like the idea of giving them to a shelter, though I am beginning to see it may be the only option here. If it's useful, I am going back and fourth between Scranton, PA and Pittsburgh, PA right now, in case anyone has suggestions that are location specific. Does anyone have advice about facilities or other ways that I might try to find them a home? Tobias and Tzipora and I thank you.
What's this little yellow flower?
Some neighbor dropped off this flowering plant (picture 1, picture 2), and I'm trying to figure out what it is, and (BONUS QUESTION) whether it's toxic to the cats. Little four-petalled yellow flowers, thick waxy-feeling leaves, roughly a foot tall in its pot. Okay thanks for reading, for your time here's a nice pic of Thunder Perfect Cat on cat tranquilizers
Should I add a third cat to our humble home?
Should I add a third cat to our humble home? I've read this and this from previous questions but our situation is slightly different. I'd like advice from other folks to help me make a decision. [more inside]
Should this cat-owning/trying-to-conceive couple get a dog? If yes, how?
I want to know if I am crazy or not, because the last thing my life needs right now is More Bad Stuff. I am going through a very tough time lately (due to infertility and a dying parent). I also own two (neurotic) cats. I think I need a dog because an outpouring of goodness and unconditional happiness is sorely needed. But I'm trying to get knocked up, both my husband & I work full time, and I've never owned a dog before. Snowflake details inside, plus bonus question: if we get this dog, should it be a puppy or adult? From a breeder or a shelter? [more inside]
How can an indoor cat get fleas?
I have four cats. I just found a live flea on one of them. How can indoor cats (they *never* go outside) get fleas? [more inside]
Are there any good robotic cat toys?
We have decided it's important for our cats to make the transition from outdoor cats to indoor cats - they're doing OK with it, but they want to play for hours, and we don't have the attention span to dangle a string in front of them all day. Given that we now live in the future, I assume there must exist some good robotic mice, birds or insects or something. Anyone have any good recommendations? [more inside]
Fabrics that work with cats: do they exist?
We have cats and, unfortunately, love them very much. We keep their nails clipped and have lots of scratching posts, but they still sink their little claws into everything. Are there fabrics, either for rugs or couches, that you've found work better with cat claws? I was told that things like microsuede provide less purchase for their little pointy claws -- is this true? What fabrics should we avoid?
Cat, plus girlfriend who is mildly allergic to cats. Tips/advice?
I have a cat that I love, and I'm seeing a woman who is mildly allergic to cats. Any allergy sufferers have any concrete suggestions about ways to reduce the impact of cat dander/fur? [more inside]
Bad Cat needs a home
What should we do about a friendly stray cat that hangs out on our porch, aggressively tries to come inside, and generally drives our own cat crazy? We've tried not feeding her and chasing her off, and we've tried regularly feeding her far from the house, and now we're not sure what to do next. [more inside]
Looking for an automatic, random, hide-able cat feeder?
We have two cats that are growing older at the same time we're become less tolerant of their constant crying for food. I would like to feed them with 3 hockey puck style containers that each open at some random time within 24 hours of being closed and placed randomly around the house. [more inside]
Help me help my cat to want to pee in the right places ...
Mango (pic here of course, the smaller, less white one) has taken to peeing inside the lobby door inside the front door. He started when we had a workman in - we think the workman might smell strongly of his own, elderly cats. I am calm and understanding with him, not angry, I try not to reinforce it, we have had him checked and done many things (see list below) but it's still happening and it's not great. Have you successfully stopped your feline companion weeing in an inappropriate place and how did you do it? [more inside]

Can a skittish cat ever share his home with a dog?

Suggestions on making cats sound adoptable
I currently have two foster kittens that I'm returning to the Humane Society soon. They will then advertise these kittens for adoption. In order to help them find their "forever family", the Society has asked us to write descriptions of the kittens. They haven't provided any guidelines, just to "write about their personality etc".

An Evaluation Of The Employment Effects Of Barriers To Outsourcing
Barriers to outsourcing that are being currently implemented in the US effectively tax its companies who "Export" jobs through outsourcing. The objective is to raise domestic employment. Given that many of the important international markets where the US has a comparative advantage feature non-atomistic firms, they evaluate the implications of such policies in an oligopolistic context. They find that while an outsourcing tax favors domestic workers by causing firms to switch to a greater use of domestic sources (the substitution effect), the loss in international competitiveness has a negative volume effect (the output effect), which pulls in the other direction.

| Health Advice & Tips
Jeanne Muchnick, a New York mother also known as America's Dinner Mom, offers the following advice to get your family eating healthier.* Turn off the television while you eat.
* Start a "talk about it bowl," where you put items - anything from a magazine article to a recipe to a book - in a large container in the middle of the table and then pick from the container for a starter on what to discuss.
* Make meals fun and social. Start early and sit and eat with them so your toddlers begin learning that meals mean talking and sharing with friends and family as much as eating.
* Serve a variety of foods and encourage your young ones to try new things. At the first sign of finicky behavior, explain to your child that it is not healthy to eat the same foods all the time.
* Include your kids, even at the toddler stage, in every aspect of eating, from shopping to recipe planning to cooking and serving. Children are more likely to eat something they have been involved with. Kids love growing things, so take a page from First Lady Michelle Obama and start a vegetable garden, or at the least, grow some herbs on your windowsill.
* Let kids feed themselves and make a mess.
* Roll it, dip it, dunk it. Toddlers are all about the sensory experience. Let them use their fingers to grab and touch, dipping carrots into yogurt, slices of chicken into applesauce, even chunks of fruit into hummus or peanut butter.
* Make food fun, not only by dressing up sandwiches with shapes and faces (and using cookie cutter shapes), but by mixing up the containers you serve them in. Try yogurt in an ice cream bowl (with a cone on top) or applesauce and pudding in muffin containers.
* Don't force your child to eat, and don't put too much on her plate. Ideally, she should eat a portion that's the size of her fist.
* Give gentle praise for good eating, but don't overdo it.
* Encourage kids to invite friends over. Children are more willing to try new foods their friends eat and also tend to talk more at dinnertime.
* Be a good role model. Children mimic your behavior - so don't forget your veggies!
