Sustainable Design and LEED Experience ZIGER/SNEAD
We believe the way we live, build, commute and consume has a significant impact on the environment, economy and society at individual and global scales, and our future depends to a large degree on sustainable architecture. Through an integrated approach to design, engineering, and construction, we actively seek design solutions that optimize value relative to initial investment and long term environmental, economic, and social cost over the lifetime of a building. More than half of our staff is LEED Accredited and the 'Ziger/Snead Green Team' is charged with establishing, promoting, educating and shepherding the sustainability effort within the office, with our clients and design teams, and to the broader community. We often use the USGBC LEED Rating System to help us gauge our efforts, educate clients and builders, and achieve the highest feasible level of sustainable design. Our portfolio includes several notable LEED Certified projects including: the Herring Run Watershed Association Headquarters, recognized as the first LEED Gold project in Baltimore City; John Hopkins University's first LEED Gold project, The Bloomberg School of Public Health's Center for a Livable Future; and the the proposed LEED Platinum Center for Parks & People at Auchentoroly Terrace.. Ziger/Snead also provided architectural design services for Sandtown Habitat for Humanity's first LEED Platinum Row House. Ziger/Snead sees sustainable design as an asset to an integrated design process, using sustainability to find the most compelling way to solve design, program and cost requirements. As designers, we look beyond the specific requirements of LEED Certification to provide the end user with a facility that is comfortable, healthy, safe and inspiring through emphasis on day-lighting, responsible energy and water management, appropriate materiality, thermal comfort, spatial design and indoor air quality.
Quality Control ZIGER/SNEAD
We are proud of our reputation, not only as creative designers and collaborative listeners, but also as technicians of thorough and proficient construction documents that can be accurately bid and efficiently built. We have developed several important techniques for monitoring and feedback to assure quality and cost control. We dedicate the energies of the Principal-in-Charge, the Project Manager, and the Project Architect throughout the life of the project. The Project Manager is responsible for maintaining organized records and coordinating the team. The firm sponsors Project Reviews where the entire firm can follow the development of all projects and offer critical evaluation. An independent Peer Review is conducted near the end of each phase. Our reputation for design excellence sometimes results in the comment, "Your buildings look expensive.� They look more expensive than they are because of the effort spent during the design phase. Our costs per square foot are consistent with comparable projects constructed across the region. Also, due to our attention to detail and quality control throughout the process, our record of change orders is consistently lower than industry averages, even on multi-bid packages on a fast-tracked schedule. Below is a summary of A/E team change orders as a percentage of construction cost and cost/square foot for each of the most relevant projects:
Frederick Douglass - Isaac Myers Maritime Park and Museum Living Classrooms Foundation A/E Change Orders: $0 (Under Guaranteed Maximum Price) Cost: $228/s.f. in 2006

Brown Center
Maryland Institute College Title of Art Sub-Title ZIGER/SNEAD & Charles ZIGER Brickbauer /SNEAD
Boldly sculptural, the Brown Center is the first new building to be constructed on the campus of the Maryland Institute College of Art in nearly a century. The center's crystalline architecture provides a dynamic image for the college's growing digital arts department. In addition to studio classrooms, the building houses a 550-seat auditorium. The exterior is clad in translucent white glass creating a provocative counterpoint to the white limestone of the college's historic main building, designed in the Renaissance Revival style. The new structure "stimulates a dialogue between contemporary and traditional forms, technologies and materials," says design architect Charles Brickbauer. The Brown Center is divided into simple lofts to permit flexible space planning, and the exterior Plaza has been carefully conceived to transform a parking lot into a vibrant campus center. The geometry and scale of the new facility, outdoor gathering spaces, fountain, and pedestrian paths all serve to gather the disparate surrounding structures into a cohesive urban place.

By transforming the structure of an abandoned 1963 department store, Ziger/Snead created a "lantern of learning" in the heart of downtown Baltimore. The glassy, low building serves as Johns Hopkins University's new Downtown Center, drawing 2,500 students per year to its academic programs. Classrooms, study rooms, library, faculty offices, and a 180-seat auditorium are used by the School of Professional Studies in Business and Education, as well as the Graduate Division of Business and Management. The city had removed the portion of the store that spanned the street and connected to the plaza of an office tower designed by the renowned modern architect, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The architects began the project by removing the remaining exterior walls of the vacant store. They wrapped the upper stories in translucent patterned glass above an electronic sign which flashes news bulletins. The ground floor, in contrast, was sheathed in clear glass to reveal the activities within the building to pedestrians. The glass skin extends beyond the original structure, creating a dramatic full-height entry atrium. By completely wrapping the exterior in glass, the architects created a glowing, light-filled pavilion that creates a bright sculptural presence within this urban neighborhood of somber office towers.

Living Classrooms Foundation ZIGER/SNEAD
The Frederick Douglass - Isaac Myers Maritime Park and Museum is the new flagship campus for Living Classrooms Foundation, a non-profit organization that has spent the past two decades using maritime settings to provide hands-on educational and job training programming for Baltimore's disadvantaged youth. The program called for the expansion of the non-profit's educational facilities and, drawing on the unique history of the site which sits adjacent to the original location of the first AfricanAmerican owned shipyard in the country, the creation of one of the first planned African-American heritage tourism destinations in Baltimore. The project includes the renovation of the oldest standing industrial warehouse on Baltimore's waterfront, the construction of a new adjoining building, a working historic marine railway, large community gathering space, a reconstructed pier, and the continuation of Baltimore's celebrated Waterfront Promenade. The design features classrooms, a woodshop, a café, offices, interactive museum-quality exhibitions, and program space for the expansion of the client's educational and workforce development programs into an undeveloped area of Baltimore's Empowerment Zone.

Stonehouse Residence
Renovation and Addition ZIGER/SNEAD
The new owners bought this residence because they loved the site and admired the stateliness of the existing 1920s house. Their program would require significant additions to the structure and they wanted the finished structure to appear as though it had always been there. Ziger/Snead responded with a major reorganization of the existing house and two major additions to the east and west which maintain the symmetry of the Georgian facade. The stone was carefully matched from four quarries on the East coast, exterior trim was carefully matched and the slate roof and wood windows were replaced with careful attention to the original detail. The interiors are being developed in a traditional manner with careful integration of new HVAC systems and "smart house� technology. The major reorganization of the site will reverse the entrance to the south facade, provide a through drive, and will allow development of the new backyard to include gardens, fields, and a new pool.

At the end of a quiet residential street lined with low-slung 1960's ranch-style homes, the Woodvalley House provides its owner a contemporary, private retreat. The house, nestled into the hillside to minimize the scale of its 6200 square feet, affords direct and unobstructed access and views to the landscaped rear yard, gardens, and wooded ravine beyond the edge of the property. The simply-articulated main body of the house is wrapped in a zinc rainscreen system and captures the kitchen, dining and living rooms in a single, monumental 18' high space. Smaller spaces, including the entry, a guest bedroom/office, and the master bedroom suite are discreet cedar-sided boxes that plug into the zinc-clad bar. A custom mahogany window wall system blurs interior and exterior spaces extending the great room to the terraces, gardens, and swimming pool. High performance glazing with ceramic frit and large overhangs mitigate solar heat gain in the Summer months. Radiant concrete and tile floors and the low-angle sun keep the interior spaces filled with light and comfortable throughout the Winter.
The River House Title Sub-Title
The River House is a weekend retreat located on the Rappahannock River in Virginia. The house marks the intersection of three landscapes: natural forest, wetlands, and a mile-wide river. The long, slender house is comprised of nineand-one-half structural steel bays. By divorcing the primary skin of the house from the steel structure, sliding glass doors will be used as the only barrier between interior and exterior. As a result, all interior spaces offer uninterrupted views out to the river. The owners appreciate the natural beauty found in raw materials and challenged Ziger/Snead to compose simple materials creatively. Location Completion Cost Area Awards

St. Louis
Roman Catholic Church
For this Roman Catholic parish, Ziger/Snead completed a comprehensive analysis of existing facilities, an assessment of long-term needs, and a master plan which proposed a phased development of the site. A new rectory was designed for the parish priests. The former 1970s worship space was converted into a new Fellowship Hall with meeting, office, and classroom facilities. The entire site was reconfigured to create a pedestrian-oriented campus which focuses on the new narthex and worship facility seating 1100 parishioners. Its cruciform design, steep roof, materials and details relate to the adjacent 19th century stone chapel. A critical component of the design was the requirement to incorporate nine large exquisite stained glass windows recently removed from the Basilica of the Assumption in Baltimore. The architects designed a new organ, altar, font, pulpit, and a classically-inspired reredos that incorporates a concealed projection screen.

Maryland Historical Society ZIGER/SNEAD
The Maryland Historical Society in Baltimore's Mount Vernon Cultural District is the state's oldest cultural institution, and its campus is comprised of diverse buildings from a stately 1840s house to a streamlined 1940s Greyhound bus station. Ziger/ Snead integrated these diverse buildings through a comprehensive master plan, renovations, and a new entry and gallery building which unifies the complex and brings it into the 21st century. Zincand glass-paneled walls convey a progressive image for the institution. Windows allow light into galleries and hallways, and a glassy entrance links the new exhibition spaces with adjacent buildings. Visitors enter through a landscaped courtyard. Other improvements include a renovated 1960s auditorium into a multipurpose space, expanded storage facilities, and upgraded mechanical systems.

New Law School Competition
University of Baltimore
Dominique Perrault and ZIGER/SNEAD
This project embraces the dual nature of its complex site. Located at a major downtown intersection between an arts district and a large university, this building also seeks to address itself to the train station, highway, and stream valley adjacent to it, welcoming visitors arriving and moving through Baltimore. The challenge was to create a building that manifests itself by combining these opposites: inside/outside, building/landscape, rigid/fluid, smooth/rough. Accentuating the Charles St. and Mt. Royal Avenue's frontage with programmed space establishes and reinforces both a physical and perceptual connection to the UB campus and the surrounding community. The landscaped slope leading from the level of the Jones Falls Expressway to the site travels further onto the building to create a seamless amalgamation of building and nature. Internally, this slope becomes a large public atrium and student forum, framed by the library the moot court, and reading spaces. This literal connection to the landscape and site is expanded further in the building's other features. The flat roof collects sunlight and rainwater, the sloped atrium leads runoff into the sloped green buffer zone where stormwater is filtered, lower storage levels reach into the earth with geothermal heat exchangers, and the south facing, urban façade uses a double skin system for maximum environmental efficiency.

American Can Pad Site ZIGER/SNEAD
At an urban scale, the design of this retail building anchors a triangular site formerly occupied by a canning company across a busy street from Baltimore's harbor. Its dramatic sculptural massing and skin of corrugated metal contrast with the adjacent masonry structures and suggest the site's maritime and industrial history. As the only new construction on the historic site, the building creates a gateway for the eastern approach to the city. The geometry of the site was embraced to create a dynamic form in plan and reinforced with a folded roof that rises at the corners. Rainwater is collected in a single featured downspout.

GKD and internationally-renowned French architect Dominique Perrault (Bibliothèque nationale de France) selected Ziger/Snead as their affiliate architect for the United States Headquarters for this Cambridge, Marylandbased manufacturer of woven wire materials. It is Mr. Perrault's first and only building in the U.S. This 40,000 s.f. office/manufacturing facility is an elegantly detailed corrugated stainless steel and glass box that serves to highlight GKD manufactured mesh products. On the front façade of the building is a free-standing 160-foot-long screen wall which acts as a "billboard" for the company; on the east wall is a series of moveable screens that can be adjusted from inside. Mr. Perrault was one of the first architects to experiment with GKD mesh products which he has skillfully integrated into many of his important commissions.

Bloomberg School of Public Health Johns Hopkins University
A bold, contemporary addition to the School of Public Health stands out amid the architecture of the Johns Hopkins University medical campus in East Baltimore. Ziger/Snead shaped glass, steel, and concrete panels into a modern, eight-story urban campus to convey a message of openness and vitality. The see-through architecture provides a welcoming image for the school, while revealing the concourses, lounges, conference rooms and other spaces inside. An angled glass wall and a curved stair tower draw the eye to the entrance, and form a transition between the new addition and existing brick structure. "They took the old building and used it as kind of a foil," notes Michael Linehan, director of facilities management for the School of Public Health. "We wanted the new building to be modern, not 19th-century. They did a brilliant job of giving us exactly what we asked for." The project was conceived in six phases, ranging in size from approximately 30,000 to 120,000 square feet. The sequence of construction was designed to be somewhat flexible to respond to variable programmatic needs. The infrastructure in each phase (stairs, elevators, mechanical, electrical, technology, safety, and structural systems) anticipated the addition of future phases. Each phase completes a portion of a coherent hallway system which, when completed, creates a logical double loop extension of the circulation pattern of the existing building. The design allows for access to elevators and fire stairs at all times during construction. Post-tensioned concrete, conventional concrete, and steel framing were used, depending on pre-existing conditions, the location in the building, cost, the need for utility penetrations, and fire rating requirements.

100th Anniversary Open Road Tour Harley-Davidson
To commemorate its 100th anniversary, Harley-Davidson launched a traveling exhibition of unprecedented scale. The Open Road Tour includes three 20,000-square-foot exhibitions that tell the story of the MACHINE, its connection to popular CULTURE, and the company's historic JOURNEY over the last 100 years. Artifacts, videos, photographs, and interactive displays were designed to appeal to riders and non-riders alike. Each exhibition has a distinct organizational approach related to its content and its relationship to other exhibits on the site. The circular form that houses the Machine exhibit serves as a node around which the Journey and Culture structures, both rectangular in plan, radiate. Through the use of thematic detailing and consistent materials, the entire event is unified. The design celebrates Harley-Davidson's rich heritage and promising future. Ziger/Snead collaborated on this project with Pentagram, a New York-based design firm. Client Location Completion Cost

Van Meter Hall
Goucher College ZIGER/SNEAD
Van Meter Hall was the first building constructed on the Goucher College campus. Completed in 1949, the stone structure was used as the college's primary classroom and faculty building. By the late 1990s, the building had become outdated and failed to meet the latest teaching methods. Ziger/Snead responded with a major renovation that provides state-of-the-art facilities while encouraging informal collegial interaction. Two additions to the original structure provide new classrooms, lecture hall, film studio, lounges and faculty offices, with casual spaces for impromptu discussions. The new stair tower and trellised entry court provide additional locations to meet and talk. While oriented to modern student life, the new additions respect the campus architecture with stone walls and sloping slate roofs that match the neighboring structure.

St. John's College ZIGER/SNEAD
Before renovating the largest building on the St. John's College in historic Annapolis, Ziger/Snead undertook a detailed analysis of this 1958 structure to understand how students use its facilities. Designed by prominent California modernist Richard Neutra, the building serves as the college's main classroom facility and houses science labs, music rooms, art studios, tutor offices, and a 600-seat auditorium. The architects concluded that the facility required a complete overhaul of the mechanical and electrical infrastructure, as well as new classrooms and an informal gathering space for students. Ziger/Snead responded with new additions that reinforce the architectural character of the original building. To revitalize the center courtyard, a one-story café provides students with a place to sit and socialize. A three-story wing containing classrooms and offices is framed in planar walls of brick, stone, steel and glass to respect the materials and forms of Neutra's modern architecture.

Mechanical Hall
University of Delaware
Mechanical Hall at the University of Delaware was renovated by Ziger/ Snead to house the Paul R. Jones Collection, one of the largest and most complete holdings of African-American art in the world. The building consists of three galleries, a study for viewing artwork containing custom-designed flat files, a conservation room, art storage spaces, faculty offices, and a conference room. The two-story brick and heavy timber structure was built in 1898 for Mechanical and Electrical Engineering classrooms and a machine shop. The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1973. Removal of interior partitions and ceilings revealed the original character of the building and exposed the heavy timber structure. Plaster and paint were stripped off the walls to expose the original brick, and panels for displaying artwork float off of the existing brick walls. The palette was limited to painted drywall, Venetian plaster, dark-stained White Oak floors, and White Oak doors and casework. Ziger/Snead also added a new glass vestibule to mark the new entrance to the gallery.

Blaustein City Life Exhibition Center
Baltimore City Life Museums
ZIGER/SNEAD & Charles Brickbauer
The Blaustein City Life Exhibition Center contains four floors of interactive exhibits and galleries that pay tribute to Baltimore's history and culture. This new exhibition center incorporates an ornate cast iron facade salvaged from an 1869 warehouse. The design is an adaptive reuse for a modern application, and at the same time a reinterpretation of the original building. Folding the five bays away from the adjacent Carroll Mansion decreases the apparent scale of the building while creating a scenographic closure to the museum complex. The design also creates desirable gallery space with natural light concentrated in circulation areas. The structure and the interior reinterpret original wood warehouses. The structure is wall bearing with steel interior columns, exposed laminated wood beams, joists, and plank floors.
"The result is a three-dimensional billboard for history, a work of architecture that not only calls attention to the museum but gives passersby a preview of what's inside." —Architecture Magazine

Most face recognition systems are based on some form of batch learning. Online face recognition is not only more practical, it is also much more biologically plausible. Typical batch learners aim at minimizing both training error and (a measure of) hypothesis complexity. We show that the same minimization can be done incrementally as long as some form of "scaffolding" is applied throughout the learning process. Scaffolding means: make the system learn from samples that are neither too easy nor too difficult at each step. We note that such learning behavior is also biologically plausible. Experiments using large sequences of facial images support the theoretical claims. The proposed method compares well with other, numerical calculus-based online learners.

National Horse Protection Day
Animals of all kinds throughout the world are exposed to severe mistreatment every day. Horses are a staple of the American image and have transitioned from livestock to companion animals, pets or even members of the family. As such, it is only fitting that we have a holiday dedicated to their welfare and good health. National Horse Protection Day was founded by Animal Behaviorist and Pet Lifestyle Expert Colleen Page on March 1st 2005 as a day for public awareness, to educate communities about the troubles that horses face throughout the country. The horse is an established symbol, representing the history and creation of the United States. Yet, despite this fact, many go unwanted, are sent to slaughter and suffer needlessly from abuse and starvation.
While horses have been categorized as production animals in the past, they are, today, for the most part, considered companion animals. This includes horses that are used for athletic competition and very much respected as athletes themselves. Per the Humane Society of the United States, dogs are the most commonly abused animal, yet horses can be categorized as "pets" and constitute a portion of the 24.1% of other animals that experience serious abuse. Types of misuse include, but are not limited to, soring, drug abuse and withdrawal of feed and water. Soring is the use of devices or harsh chemicals to intensify a horse's animation in movement. This practice has historically been used in the competition of gaited Tennessee Walkers. Although outlawed over three decades ago, partly due to a lack of funding, the USDA is unable to regulate soring and, as a result, this tradition persists within the equine community.
Horses from all types of backgrounds can also be mistreated when they are abandoned and/or sent to slaughter. The Humane Society of the United States claims that each year, nearly 100,000 American horses are inhumanely transported for long distances, while deprived of water, food and rest. After viscous slaughter, the meat from these mostly healthy horses is then shipped overseas for human consumption. The Safeguard American Food Exports (SAFE) Act would prohibit the slaughter of horses within the United States for human consumption, in addition to the export of live horses for the same purpose. This act is important not only to help prevent the inhumane treatment of horses, but also to reduce health risks for humans. According to the Animal Welfare Institute, there is currently no means for detecting whether or not a horse that has been sent to slaughter has received substances known to be dangerous for humans. While helping horses to find sanctuary in good homes may not be an easy feat, it provides an alternative to sending these horses to slaughter and eliminates the possibility of distributing questionable meat for human consumption.
So how can we help? Beyond caring for personal horses as best we can, there are a number of other ways we can help better a horse's life. When adoption is not possible, foster care is always an option. Also remember that a little bit can go a long way. Be a good neighbor or barn mate and help out a friend when their horse may need some financial support, exercise or basic care. Plan an adoption event in your area, help out a local adoption center or organize a food and supply drive. Social media is a very powerful tool that you can also use. Promote local adoption on Facebook or Instagram. Write an informational blog and share it via social media to increase awareness and encourage others who may be more willing and able to adopt or foster. Help protect our horses. Stop abuse. Speak up, and remember, no matter the contribution, anything helps.

anonymous asked:
from one to ten how powerful would Chara's 'Ramones' phase be
Even though their attitude, tattoos and love of black skinny jeans may say otherwise, teen Chara is actually mostly just punk in spirit. They don't tend towards specific music genres and their wardrobe when going outside is actually usually quite conservative.
They want people to think they're hardcore and spooky, but getting people to think you're either of these things usually involves interacting with people and having their attention for a lot longer than Chara is comfortable with, so that dream doesn't really go anywhere before they're older and more confident in social situations.
When they're younger and more fearful, they find it easier to avoid attracting attention in turtlenecks and cardigans than in punk fashion.

Neatsfoot is a traditional oil used for softening leather, however you can get better results with modern products?
Neatsfoot oil will have no benefit to modern leather as the leather is sealed with a lacquer that will prevent the oil from soaking in. Just put a drop of water on the leather and see if it sit's on the surface, if it does, so would neatsfoot oil. Instead, leather should be maintained using Leather Protection Cream. This will protect the lacquer on the leather helping to prolong the lifespan of the item. The Protection Cream helps repels stains, reduce soiling, reduce UV (sun) damage and it also helps reduce the friction caused as you use leather. It is the friction that causes the lacquer to wear away and the leather to lose it's colour or crack.
Or, if you want to soften the leather you should use Leather Revive. Leather Revive is specially designed to penetrate leather and coat each individual fibre of leather with a balanced coating of oil to properly soften and look after all items of leather. It won't leave a sticky residue on the surface and will not cause any imbalance in chemicals within the leather.
Neatsfoot description from Wikipedia
"Neatsfoot oil is a yellow oil rendered and purified from the shin bones and feet (but not the hooves) of cattle. "Neat" in the oil's name comes from an old name for cattle. Today, many consider the best quality neatsfoot oil to be that which comes from the legs of calves, with no other oils added. Neatsfoot oil is used as a conditioning, softening and preservative agent for leather. In the 18th century, it was also used medicinally as a topical application for dry scaly skin conditions.
Prime neatsfoot oil or neatsfoot oil compound are terms used for a blend of pure neatsfoot oil and non-animal oils, generally mineral or other petroleum-based oils."
