About Me
Greetings from Jacksonville, Florida.
It is always an act of generosity to have someone look at your work and comment. I appreciate you pausing here in your active life.
I am a conventional artist... I still use a pencil and paint brush. Although my iPad Pro has me doing some digital works as well.
I have been in Jacksonville Florida over 30 years. I started off as an artist. But as I got more serious I need models to pose for my work. Since I worked from photographs, I learned to take my own. Next thing you know I am as good a photographer as an artist. But in the past 12 years I have returned to my artistic roots and am now devoting myself to my paintings. But I still need models to pose for me. Some get compensation others get free photos, depends on what the model needs. All have fun!
These are samples of over 30 years of work. Many I will not post because paintings unlike digital art do not translate well over the net and look awful. I thought I would just show some of the fun I have had. I also have many more posted on Deviant Art....check them out
Professional, creative, fun, and totally myself. I respect your talent and hard work. Be assured I am all about my art.
I am happy to talk with you, listen and converse, or answer any questions. My time is divided by many projects and tasks, so please understand I may not be able to get back to you quickly.
Have you worked with JOHN LEIGH? Add Credits for JOHN LEIGH! >>
"Very professional set up, and great fun for a model who can also act and move. John uses his time, light, and words wisely to benefit himself and the model"
Worked together 1 times; Most recent: June 2016

SPORTS PEOPLE: HOCKEY; Lemieux Is Ready to Return
Published: June 21, 1995
MARIO LEMIEUX has decided to end his one-year medical sabbatical and return to the Pittsburgh Penguins and the sport he once dominated.
Lemieux, who led Pittsburgh to the 1991 and 1992 Stanley Cup championships, said today that he plans to play 60 to 70 games, skipping some long trips to prevent stress on his troublesome back.
Lemieux, who will be 30 in September, was convinced last summer that fatigue related to Hodgkin's disease and his chronic back problems had prematurely ended his career. But a year to rest, recuperate and reflect on his life away from hockey changed the four-time National Hockey League scoring champion's mind.
"I feel 100 percent better than I did at this time last year," Lemieux said at a news conference. "I have recuperated from the radiation treatments 100 percent and I also feel like my back has made tremendous progress over the last six months." (AP)

Any other information: Although I've been inactive on the wiki before, this time I am serious about adopting the wiki and will edit every day
The currently inactive admin doesn't read the novel or the manga so there is a lot of missing information. I wouldn't think I need to make a blog announcing my adoption since the last time anyone was on the wiki was a comment 21 days ago, and before that was a comment around 2 1/2 months ago

Gabrielle Teschner | Interview
We welcome Gabrielle Teschner to Tappan today, and we are so excited to share this beautiful series of intricately constructed pieces. Gabrielle Teschner lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area. She received her BFA in Sculpture from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2003 and her MFA from California College of the Arts in 2007. Teschner's work is included in the permanent collection of the De Young Museum in San Francisco and has shown throughout the Bay Area at Haines Gallery, John Berggruen Gallery, Goodnight Projects and Chandra Cerrito Contemporary. Teschner works with muslin fabric, paint, and stitching to reconstruct forms that are analogous to our built environments. Employing architectural components into her carefully crafted works, Teschner questions and explores the edifice of accumulated knowledge, incorporating architectural icons that become themes for an examination of structural authority in both building construction and rigid ideologies.
Our interview with her below:
Tell us about this body of work launching on Tappan?
These pieces are made of cotton muslin and many depict stones. A lot of them are traveling works, and have crossed as many borders as I have in the past few years. I carried them everywhere. I was thinking about essential building blocks--elements of architecture that a whole structure would depend on. A keystone, or a column. Something that supports weight. We rely on the fact that these foundations exist in order to dwell. Some of them I made after I spent time in Berlin, and I was thinking about the remnants of the wall underfoot. Those stones had been significant dividers, but were scaled down to paving stones.
When do you make your best work?
Before a good meal.
Regarding your method of making, is it a case of the material or method dictating the idea of the other way around?
I start with an idea, but it works the other way too. Fabric talks about flexibility, portability, and information-loss in a way that more rigid sculptural materials don't. I sew this work. So much of the composition ends up behind the work, folded into the seams. With wood, it gets sanded off, it ends up on the floor, you never think about it again.
Artist whose career you covet?
If I'm going to break a commandment and a noble truth, can I go big? Picasso. I wanted to be him when I was five. I thought I could pick up where he left off.
Last gallery show you went to?
Of Many Minds at Euqinom in SF, 3 artists making epic photo work
What are you most proud of?
My reflexes.
What do you see yourself doing in 5 years?
Tending a prolific orchard.
If you could travel anywhere to create for a while, where would you go?
I just traveled to Siracusa Ortigia in Sicily and I would go back there. It's a bright island with washed, white stone an hour from a dark city built of black lava stone. The columns of an old Greek Temple were used to build the newer cathedral that stands there today, which was built on top of an even older foundation, and you can see all the layers, all the stages of degradation in the stone, from the outside. I would like to take some more time thinking about that.
What are your other hobbies?
Spending time on the water, running stairs, looking up the uses of plants, going to the movies, talking with people who don't speak English
If you could have a drink with one artist, who would it be?
Richard Serra
What influences you?
Architects. Hindu Time. The history of math. Couture. Koans.
What motivates you?
My big family on the East Coast, and the morning
What's your studio philosophy?
Build more questions.
How many hours do you try and work in the studio per week?
I try and create part of something every day. That could take me five minutes, or 5 hours, and not always in a studio. I spent half this year without one. There's a great picture of Rothko sitting back and staring at one of his pieces. I think that's one of the best uses of studio time. You're the first person to see this thing, ever.
Silence or sound while creating? If sound, what?
I'm in Key West at the moment, and I was told a tropical storm comes through tomorrow. I would love to be working in a good thunderstorm with the window open. That's the right amount of drama. That or hip-hop, or Lionel Hampton.
Tools or mediums you're dying to experiment with?
What's next?
I'm taking advantage of being in a tropical climate. Thinking about the function of color in the heat. And curves. The plants on the shore have shapes made to withstand the wind.
What's the first thing you do when you begin formulating an idea for a piece?
Go for a walk. I do my best thinking when I'm moving or watching things move. I've been making a lot of small paper works on ferry-rides and flights. The scene is changing out of the window, and there's nothing to get done but this.
What work took you the longest to complete?
The Path, it was 14 feet wide and 8 feet tall. It took about 5 weeks but I used every hour I had. I couldn't wait to see what it would become. I used my full armspan, my full height, to put it together.
Best gift you've ever received?
A painting of a scarlet-sailed shipwreck by Ryan Pierce.
Describe your work in 3 words.
In the beginning.
What's one thing you still have from your childhood?
A fat little bronze Buddha that my Dad got in India. It's an inch tall and it's far heavier than it should be, like a piece of black matter. It used to sit in my windowsill.
Do you have a favorite quote, or a phrase you think about often?
"Five colors blind the eye, from the Tao te Ching." It points to how the finite divisions we create between things make it harder for us to sense the infinite.
Have the cities you've lived in influenced your practice? If so, tell us a bit about that, and what elements in particular steered you in certain directions.
I grew up in the woods overlooking a slow, marshy river that led out to the Chesapeake Bay. A very occasional boat would come through. It was quiet but full of forest sounds, and constantly transformed by the seasons. My parents had, and still build on, an enormous, sprawling, wild garden that touches the edges of the woods on all sides. Almost all of the color disappears in the winter, and it goes black and white. The pace of that piece of land is responsible for the way I focus.
I've lived in California for 11 years now. It always represented something bigger, more vast. The plants are more sculptural. When I first came here I thought it looked like a Dr. Seuss book. I thought, okay, he didn't make all of it up. I really appreciated how the West Coast has so much undeveloped coastline. When I zoom out, I think of the West as a monumental cliffside. The East coast is more granular by comparison, broken down into smaller pieces.
And I travel a lot. I go somewhat prepared with a perception that will help me enjoy the place, but then I let it get dismantled. It's the contrast between those that reveals.
What country do you wish to visit?
What makes you nervous?
What makes you laugh no matter what?
Slapstick kills me. And that scene in the Big Lebowski when Walter throws the ashes over a cliff and they fly into The Dude's face. There's something about halted motion...
What's the bravest thing you've ever done?
It was a long time ago, but climbing the Inca Trail ill. There is almost no air there. I climbed every single stair individually. I told myself, just one more step, 10,000 times. I made it to Macchu Picchu, but it defeated me. I still enjoy brief encounters with landscapes that are like that--unwelcoming to humans. It gives me hope that we won't be able to take over everything.
Someone whose work has inspired your own practice and what you're creating these days?
Ed Ruscha. He trusts phrases and symbols to exist in isolation. Also, the space in a lot of his work has substance, like it's dusty or humid. I appreciate his sense of humor. I shook his hand once, it was very encouraging.
What's one habit you wish you could break?
Taking the stickers off of fruit and putting them just anywhere.

Looking to meet new people and see what happens, as for some reason I apparently find socializing in one of the busiest cities in the world difficult without the internet!
In my spare time I love travelling and exploring new places, so recommendations are always welcome if you have any! When I'm not bankrupting myself through travel I also like the gym, reading (again recommendations are always welcome), and watching the kind of epic TV shows that seem to be incredibly prolific nowadays.
Books are tougher as there are still so many that I want to read. I've been more into non-fiction lately, some recent favourites have been Thinking, Fast and Slow, Bad Pharma, and Outliers, although I seem to end up reading the Economist a lot on the tube as well. Fiction I've enjoyed includes Dracula, 1984, and others I can't currently think of. Frankenstein's next on my list!
Although they're neither films nor books, I've become a big fan of board games recently as well, and I'm always on the lookout for new ones to try! Also enjoy video games, although as I get older I'm finding that I have far less time to play them.
Favourite foods are harder to pin down as food is generally pretty awesome. Italian, Mexican, Indian, and Thai are all solid options, but as long as it tastes good I'm there!

Mass Deaths Indicate Marine Ecosystem in Distress
"The cause [for the hundreds of pelican, dolphin and manatee deaths] continues to evade easy explanation," writes Michael Wines. "But a central question is whether the deaths are symptoms of something more ominous: the collapse of the natural balance that sustains the 156-mile estuary's northern reaches."
"'We may have reached a tipping point,' said Troy Rice, who directs the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program, a federal, state and local government partnership at the St. Johns River Water Management District."
"Mr. Rice's fear, widely shared, is that an ecosystem that supports more than 4,300 species of wildlife — and commercial fisheries, tourism and other businesses generating nearly $4 billion annually — is buckling under the strain of decades of pollution generated by coastal Florida's explosive development."

Sleep Regression
Hi Moms,
Hope you are all doing well on this Friday. :)
Have any of you experienced what has been called the four month sleep regression? Freddie used to sleep through the night for 10-12 hours, now, for the past month, he has been getting up in the middle of the night, and is awake for hours. He did have about a week and a half in this month period where he slept through the night, but it has been sporadic.
I feel like I can't function, because of lack of sleep. I don't know if this is just a phase or what, but I surely hope it ends soon.
I love my little boy to pieces, but I find myself getting frustrated with the situation, because I don't have a solution to the problem, and I am used to being able to solve problems. Since becoming a mother, that has pretty much gone out the window...lol. Once you think you have them figured out, they change the game on you.

Rhonda Hetzel feels passionately that living simply leads to a richer, more fulfilling existence. Having made the decision to live frugally, embrace sustainability and opt out of the capitalist consumerist mindset, she set about working out how to achieve her goal, learning traditional skills, reducing her spending and environmental impact and focusing on the simple things that make life worth living: family, friends, and a home-cooked meal.
This is the story of her journey and the lessons she has learned along the way. Rhonda relates why she wanted to change her lifestyle, what simple living means to her, and offers guidance to those thinking about taking the same path.
About the Author
Rhonda Hetzel is a retired journalist and technical writer best known for her award-winning blog, 'Down to Earth'. Rhonda lives with her husband, Hanno, on the Sunshine Coast, where they happily tend a food garden, gather eggs and occasionally look after grandchildren. Rhonda is a keen volunteer worker and is often found presenting simple-living workshops in her community.

Best Uses
I found this to be yet another patronising "live simply like me book" but actually I am just another greedy wannabe author cashing in on the frugal living market. Nothing new here or particularly informative for those starting out with little cash or space - not everyone has large home blocks and huge amounts of time to sit on one's backside and sew/knit, something that is clearly what the author does regularly as she is morbidly obese, which makes me question how much she actually does do, given this is supposed be be her whole life. There are better sources and books out there - thankfully

I take good care of myself. I'm a decent cook. I almost never eat an entire box of ice cream sandwiches for dinner.
I prefer people who see the positive in life and appreciate what they have. But that doesn't stop me from being ambitious.
I'm a builder and a tinkerer - I built my kitchen cabinets from bare lumber, they look damn nice, and I still have all ten fingers.
I'm definitely interested in finding a serious relationship. That said, I'm also interested in meeting people who value friendship and are genuinely nice and intelligent. Even if turns out to be a walking/jogging/running/tennis partner, someone to hang out with every now and then, or nothing at all.
I aspire to travel. Do you want to go somewhere?
I'd submit Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as an example of a movie I dig, and I consider Ferris Bueller's Day Off not only a magnum opus, but also a codex to live by. Forrest Gump is another classic I'd put up there. Interstellar is a recent favorite.
Music: A few randomly chosen artists you might find on my playlists: Lana Del Rey, Gorrillaz, Tracy Chapman, O.A.R., Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Cranberries, Sublime, 311, Moby, Blues Traveler.
Currently reading The Songs of Distant Earth by Arthur C Clarke - I like to read but I don't get through many books these days.
But seriously: enough sleep, friends, and something to keep me occupied? I think I could be happy without most of the material things I have.
-I messaged you (that means you're just as good)

Can you give some alternative for 1SS99 diode, and i need to add a buzzer instead of meter.

Everybody is moving to DTH unwillingly, Digitization. Analog/Cable-TV and terrestrial, will be completely terminated at the end of 2014, In my area analog signals switched off suddenly cause of govt orders.., there r some pirated signal providers, their license also cancelled soon, So circuits like these come in handy for normal people.

The circuit shown in the pdf is quite straightforward and uses standard components which are crucially matched with the system parameters.....so I think it should not be modified in any manner.

The opamp TLC271 is not so difficult to obtain so it's not a problem....moreover a 741 will not work as optimally as a TLC271 would do, so I think everything's perfect in the design and must be followed as it's given.

I'll surely include and discuss the design concept in my blog soon...thanks:)Swagatam Majumdarhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8226950546477403054.post-51526371086312554282014-03-23T14:08:00.295+05:302014-03-23T14:08:00.295+05:30Hello Swagatam, i need you to modify the satellite...Hello Swagatam,
i need you to modify the satellite signal finder circuit, with easily available parts in india.
the basic idea is -the power from STB to LNB is fixed, when RF signal get maximum that extra power is used to drive a meter/Piezo buzzer, the buzzer sound vari accoring to available signal strength.... we can use the sound variations to pin-point the Location of satellite, I wish you to modify the circuit with op-amp 741/tba820/tda2822m like components, here is the circuit & video

just found out ,i have breast cancer, now the doctors think i have kidney cancer and that maybe where the breast cancer came from. so confused.they also found something in the pelvic area. what is goi
Debbie, PJ is right. Your situation is not typical, and you may need to go beyond usual cancer treatments. The treatments for kidney and breast cancer are not necessarily the same, so you need specialists who can figure out how to balance the treatments for your different conditions. I have read about some people whose cancer metastasizes to an unusual place, so it is possible, though not likely, that you have kidney cancer cells in your breast, or breast cancer cells in your kidney. Again if that is the case, a comprehensive cancer center or research hospital is the best place to deal with this unusual situation.
Debbie, so far as I know, kidney cancer can't spread to the breast. And breast cancer can't spread to the kidneys. So if it's true you have both, they've developed independently of one another. Sounds like you might have a complicated diagnosis going on here; I'd suggest, if at all possible, you ask for a second opinion at a Comprehensive Cancer Center, which are cancer centers around the country the government has designated "best in class." They see a LOT of cancer patients, and thus have great experience dealing with all kinds of situations. I wish you all the best as you go through this- PJH

The van delivery service, part of CoSer 509 Learning Resources Center, provides delivery of mail, AV equipment, computers, lamination, interlibrary loan and other materials between the 18 participating school districts and all BOCES offices and technical centers. All items that travel via van mail are date-stamped when they arrive in the Learning Resources Center, before being sorted for their final destination. Items that are insufficiently addressed or have NO RETURN address will be sent back to the site of origin. Only properly addressed materials are sent on to the districts or BOCES offices in order to ensure correct and confidential delivery. If you are sending materials via BOCES van mail, please make sure to address the materials as if you were mailing them through the U.S. Postal Service (with complete sender and addressee information).
For any van delivery or pickup that cannot be completed with the normal van delivery run please use the Van Delivery Request Form below. This includes the shipment of large or excessively heavy items, large quantities of items, or items that by their size or nature may damage other materials in the normal delivery.
The last van delivery dates for this school 2016-17 school year are June 19th & 20th.
The last pickup for LRC Materials only will be June 22nd & 23rd.
You will want to send materials back via van mail by June 15th & 16th to be sure they can reach their destination before the end of the school year. After that, plan on sending them via U.S. mail so they don't sit at the LRC over the summer. Thank you

Snowmobile Pics from 3rd Race
My bad, assuming that they were taken with a 7d. Still, I enjoyed the photos. Your ears must still be ringing with all of those beasts turning over...

Thanks for the comments. I have the 50D and not the 7D. I'm really happy with it, the performance is great, so I'm not upgrading any time soon. I'm glad that you found a camera that give you the IQ that you are looking for. Happy shooting!!

Hi everybody,
Just want to share some pictures from the 3rd race. It was by far the warmest but tomorrow (the 4th race) is going to top that. It will be in the 30's and with a few flurries. They are taken with the Canon 50D and the EF 100-400L IS, handheld. C&C are always welcomed.
Nice. I could never get my 7d to perform for sports consistently, particularly during sequences. The camera could never focus properly especially when moving objects were coming towards the camera and at best I would get about a 50% in focus rate. It went back to CPS several times and they kept indicating that the camera was in-spec and suggested that I send in the lenses. Well, I knew that the lenses weren't the problem as they focused perfectly on my 1dmkII's and 5d.
In the end, I sold the 7d and bought a used 1dmkIII - all I can say is wow. Tonight, while shooting hockey through the glass in the typically poorly lit rink at ISO 3200 all, and I mean all photos were sharp, sharp, sharp. Not a missed focus in the bunch even at 10 fps.
Sorry, to digress but obviously your 7d is performing for you. Enjoy.

Common Data Requests Descriptive statistics: How many green collar workers are currently employed by location and type? Forecasts – What will be the future employment demand? – What KSAs will green job-seekers need? – How many are in the training pipeline? – What skills gaps loom on the horizon? – Will an insufficient supply of workers with appropriate KSAs thwart policy goals and objectives? – How much will green workforce development cost? – What will be the return on investments in green collar worker preparation?
WHO'S ASKING Elected officials and candidates The media LWDAs, COGs, EDCs Industry and professional association Education and training partners Specific employers
The Data Dilemma Lack of clear operational definition – green economy – green industry – green occupation – green job Surplus of "inspired" definitions Political pitfalls
What's the difference between these two toilets? WHICH OF THE TWO IS "GREEN" If you are a plumber with the skills to install Toilet A, do you need new training to install toilet B?
Is one forklift operator greener than another? Does the operator's "greenness" depend on: A. the fuel source for the forklift B. the materials being moved C. the way those materials will subsequently be used D. the education and training of the operator E. A, B and C but not D.
Who/what constitutes "green building"? Forestry & lumber milling Construction & specialty trades Architectural & landscape design Procurement, project management, quality control Imbedded software development & integration Materials sciences, chemistry, physics, engineering
Types of Definitions By Industry By Firm By Occupation By Detailed Work Assignment
Outcomes-Based Approach What is its net impact on energy consumption? – Compute in term of "BBOEs" (barrel of oil equivalents) – Compute in terms of cost per unit of energy (e.g., $/BUT, $/kilowatt, $/megajouel What is its net impact on emissions of CO2, SO2 and NOx? What is its impact on net job creation?
Bubble Chart Comparisons Decreased energy consumption or cost per unit Increased energy consumption or cost per unit Increased Emissions Decreased Emissions
What Are the Policy Levers Regulations and fines Market forces (e.g., green profit centers through carbon cap and trade, enhanced oil recovery) Financial incentives for R&D, pilot/demon- stration projects commercialization? Government procurement Consumer education Workforce preparation
Scalable Response Sound employment growth forecasts, not hyperbole How different are the required knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs)? Where do efforts to impart those KSAs fit into the curriculum? – New major/program of study? – New course (basic or capstone)? – New module (e.g., less than semester length)? Who's the target? (incumbent worker skill upgrade, postdoctoral student... high school)

Twitter Acquisition Warns You to Back Up Posterous Content
Photo of the author, Jennifer Beese by Jennifer Beese on March 13, 2012
Twitter has acquired the San Francisco-based blogging platform Posterous. While this appears to be a talent acquisition, current Posterous members are being encouraged to back up their content.
Posterous is a simple publishing platform — similar to Tumblr — that lets you post things online quickly through email and distribute content to other platforms.
Twitter's announcement focused on the talent and reassured the community that Posterous Spaces will remain up and running without disruption. However, the company may have hinted toward something more and added, "We'll give users ample notice if we make any changes to the service."
Many tech blogs are taking that to mean that we'll likely see the service being shut off after a grace period. Otherwise, Twitter wouldn't have needed to provide you with instructions on how to back up or move your content to another service. For anyone interested, these tips will be available in the coming weeks.
Domain partner, eNom, will take over custom domain accounts purchased through Posterous. You will receive an email within the next few days with instructions on how to access your new domain account.
While this doesn't necessarily mean game over for Posterous, it's never a bad idea to know how to back up your content. This is a good reminder for anyone with a blog to back up regularly and make sure your work is safe.

Hey! It's Thursday night again, back here in our DTSP venue HQ NOVA 535 for the weekly gathering of the Entrepreneur Social Club (TM). It's every Thursday night, well except an occasional holiday respite, since 2009. That's a lot of faces, laughs; oh man, so many laughs. Real long, belly shaking ones that let out the stresses of our working lives. We are the Entrepreneurs, dreamers, business owners, visionaries, mentors, students and start-ups. Those of us who cannot help but to make things better. Smoother, faster, less expensive, more reliable. Or just new. New technologies, new systems, new solutions. That's us. It certainly isn't the politician, oh no! In fact club rules EXPRESSLY forbid religion and politics. Because then we all get along, arguing about what's best, not about what's just best for me. Entrepreneurs make things better for everyone. Better for all is better for all. Think about that. When things are better, that's better for EVERYONE. So we take that positive, can do better attitude, for ourselves, our businesses, our customers and for our species, into, through and hopefully well beyond our weekly meetings. This is a time for us to connect, network, regenerate, grow and enjoy. So read on and join us on another ESC adventure!!

Swarm.City Boardwalk Release for Blockchain Enabled Commerce
Thursday June 15, 2017 we welcome back #Pioneer #Visionary Cate Colgan to our weekly Entrepreneur Social Club (TM). We're back at our headquarters, the historic DTSP venue NOVA 535. Cate's been working, as usual, on the bleeding edge of things. She's a force of nature, always sniffing out the newest of the new, leading those around her into the future. Back in 2009, Cate appeared and talked me into our first Tweet-Up. Actually it was one of the first anywhere. Tonight she's got us tuning into the launch of Boardwalk, by Swarm.City. We'll learn more about Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain. Let's call tonight's story "Swarm.City Boardwalk Release for Blockchain Enabled Commerce." Title, keyword and URL all gotta match up, ya know!
Sunshine Grind Rain Rain Rinse and Repeat
During a week of much needed summer rain showers, we gathered like massive storm clouds once again, at our Entrepreneur Social Club (TM) headquarters, the historic DTSP venue NOVA 535. Our ESC weekly gathering can offer just the "sunlight and rain" we "wilted" business owners and Entrepreneurs need. Needed dearly after our hectic weeks to refresh, learn and grow. Tonight we saw many lovely, new faces, from all different industries, backgrounds and ancestries. Much of the fun and excitement of our gatherings is welcoming new people, with their unique stories, backgrounds and perspectives. Of course dinner, drinks and the afterparty party also offer us a chance to blow off the proverbial steam! So let's call tonight's story, from Thursday June 8, 2017, "Sunshine Grind Rain Rain Rinse and Repeat."
Fearless Facials and Hilarious URLs
Fearless Facials and Hilarious URLs
Another beautiful Thursday evening here in sunny Downtown St. Petersburg, Florida, aka DTSP. We are gathering for our weekly networking, socializing, drinking, listening and learning; our home away from home. The Entrepreneur Social Club (TM) going strong since 2009. Last week one of our ESC members, the lovely and talented Dona Crowley, held her Luminescence Blacklight Fashion Show and Art Experience during our normal meeting time. Beautiful models painted with blacklight effective body paint, food and music and lots of fun. Well tonight, May 11, 2017, we are back to our "regular" meeting schedule, if "regular" involves fearless facials … so let's get started!
Headshots Splits and The Galley
Headshots Splits and The Galley
Tonight it's Thursday March 30, 2017, here in beautiful Downtown St. Pete, Florida. We are gathering for our weekly networking, schmoozing, mentoring, drinking, laughing, learning, dining and so much more. Plus some Headshots Splits and maybe even an afterparty! It's every Thursday since 2009, our group, the Entrepreneur Social Club (TM). A chance to meet and connect with fellow business owners, Entrepreneurs, and the like minded, where religion and politics are forbidden. A place to discuss and debate the best way to solve problems, to make a better business or process; not a place for bullies nor jerks. A fun place where we all walk away a bit smarter. Better humans and business people. A place we call home.
Entrepreneurial Magic
It's another beautiful Thursday night, March 16, 2017, here in lovely downtown St. Petersburg, Florida, what we locals call DTSP. We're gathering at our gorgeous, historic HQ, St. Pete's 5-Star wedding and event venue NOVA 535. Where our weekly ritual has taken place since 2009, when the Entrepreneur Social Club, aka ESC, was founded. And Trademarked. So if you are considering creating a social club for Entrepreneurs, be original and find your own name. Dorks!! (Side rant.) Anywho, here we gather to laugh and cry, to share our successes and failures. Plus we enjoy some cocktails from our lovely master bartender Vanessa, and get in some good ol' fashion networking. When the timing is just right, we enjoy some Entrepreneurial Magic.
Authors Alleys and the HSN Drip Krown
Authors Alleys and the HSN Drip Krown
Tonight, Thursday March 2, 2017, here in beautiful Downtown St. Pete, Florida, was an extra special night for the Entrepreneur Social Club. We were celebrating several successes, including Authors, Alleys and the HSN Drip Krown. Our authors are Daniel Nyiri, owner of 4U-Fitness (below), who along with Stephanie Wynn, are publishing their first books. Congrats! We'll get into the alley later…. as to other success story of the night it's from Don "Drip Krown" Kobasky. Don is our infamous high-impact oil on canvas painter turned inventor. Don had to grind it out, using his "never say never, never give up" Brooklyn, NY attitude. Tooth, nail and perseverance was required to get himself on the air at our local King Kong network HSN. Bravo to Daniel, Stephanie and Don!!
Octopus Bacon and Boats you Just Cannot Flip
Octopus Bacon and Boats you Just Cannot Flip
Tonight is a spectacularly gorgeous "winter" evening, another near perfect Thursday here in sunny St. Pete, Florida. I'm gearing up for our weekly Entrepreneur Social Club, HQed at my historic wedding and event venue NOVA 535, which happens to be turning 9 years old today! Happy Birthday to Team NOVA!! So much love, passion, tears, hard work, sweat and real $$ equity went into building NOVA 535 out of the 'ashes' of a doggie day care and out of about 80 years of bad design decisions. I purchased 535 in the fall of 2005 and we opened February 8, 2009. Wow how time flies! And how tonight we discover and enjoy Octopus Bacon and Boats you Just Cannot Flip!
Our Successes are Shaken and Stirred
Shaken and Stirred. Red or White? Domestic or Imported? Tonight, Thursday January 26, 2017, as our delightful bartender Vanessa enjoys some sin city with her friends, I add to my roles that of Bartender. Luckily, not the first or even 100th time, so we're in good shape. Not as good when she is around (don't leave us Vanessa!) but we'll survive! And yes Art, you can have another Vodka and Soda, just let me put my camera down!
French Accents Hard Science and Sushi Galore!
Thursday, January 12, 2016 heralds our weekly gathering with the Entrepreneur Social Club, AKA the ESC. We have been meeting every Thursday, sans any major holidays like Thanksgiving, since January 2009. In the light of a wedding being on schedule for tonight at our DTSP headquarters, historic wedding and event venue NOVA 535, we are offsite for ESC. So we ventured to Suozou Asian Fusion Restaurant to enjoy French Accents Hard Science and Sushi Galore, at 435 5th Avenue North. Call them at 727-823-4050, they are fabulous!
Attendance sometimes dips when we are offsite, and I use the time when I'm sitting there alone waiting for our members for a moment of introspection. For instance, I think: Why are you doing this Michael? Who will show tonight? As I organize my laptop and get my Cannon 6D ready, I ponder what the ESC means to me… Why every Thursday I spend my valuable time and energy on my "charity", a free social club focused on helping and mentoring my fellow Entrepreneurs.

Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" is a live-action re-telling of the studio's animated classic which refashions the classic characters from the tale as old as time for a contemporary audience, staying true to the original music while updating the score with several new songs. "Beauty and the Beast" is the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle's enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast's hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true Prince within. The film stars: Emma Watson as Belle; Dan Stevens as the Beast; Luke Evans as Gaston, the handsome, but shallow villager who woos Belle; Oscar® winner Kevin Kline as Maurice, Belle's eccentric, but lovable father; Josh Gad as Lefou, Gaston's long-suffering aide-de-camp; Golden Globe® nominee Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, the candelabra; Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci as Maestro Cadenza, the harpsichord; Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Plumette, the feather duster; six-time Tony Award® winner Audra McDonald as Madame Garderobe, the wardrobe; Oscar nominee Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, the mantel clock; and two-time Academy Award® winner Emma Thompson as the teapot, Mrs. Potts.
Directed by Oscar® winner Bill Condon from a screenplay based on the 1991 animated film, the film is produced by Mandeville Films' David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman with eight-time Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken, who won two Academy Awards® (Best Original Score and Best Song) for the 1991 animated film, providing the score, which will include new recordings of the original songs written by Menken and Howard Ashman, as well as several new songs written by Menken and three-time Oscar winner Tim Rice. "Beauty and the Beast" will be released in UK Cinemas March 2017.

We have stayed here once before in 2005 and decided to stay again. This time however we decided to stay one night at the Grand Hotel and then two nights at the Murray.
We spent a little extra for a queen deluxe room with a view. When we stayed here the last time, I remembered that the room was really small, so we wanted to upgrade just a little bit for our anniversary. Our room faced the street which is what we wanted. I noticed there are some reviews that mentioned the noise of the street at night. I'm not sure if it is because we stayed at the end of the season or if it was because we stayed mid week, but the noise wasn't too bad. However, if the same size room is available in the back, that's what I would choose the next time we stay. I don't feel the view was worth the extra cost. The room was small, but definitely larger than our last room...especially the bathroom.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our luggage was sent over from the Grand and when we arrived it was brought up for us. In the evenings chocolate chip cookies were brought to our room which I thought was a nice touch. In the lobby there is free coffee and cocoa all day and in the evenings there are free donuts at the front desk. WiFi is only available in the lobby which is a pain, but at least it is available. The breakfast was kind of a let down. If it was included in the room it would have been ok, but since we had to pay for it, it was not a great value. Especially for just the two of us. It is pretty standard for most hotels to offer complementary breakfasts like this now, so it really should be included in the price especially with the deluxe rooms. My tip would be to take a couple of donuts back to your room in the evenings and have them in the morning. Then, have a nice lunch somewhere.
Our room was small but clean. The bathroom floor was a strange rubbery material that was really slippery when wet. No coffee pot or phone in the room. Coffee wasn't a big deal since it is free in the lobby, but the no phone was strange. There are phones located in the hallway periodically. Our fan did not work in the bathroom which was a pain and once the fire alarm went off from the steam!! The TV was super small. We didn't watch it very much, but it looked so silly in the armoire, it would almost have been better to not even have one at all and just have a dresser there instead.
The best part of the hotel was the pool. I don't remember this from the last time we stayed and I'm guessing that it's a new addition. It's a small pool, more of a really large hot tub. It was fantastic. It is located on the second floor in the courtyard. We stayed here at the end of September and the weather was rainy and chilly the entire time. But, we still used the pool!!! It was great. It felt amazing with the hot water and the breeze. I'm not sure if any of the other guests tried it but they really missed out if they didn't.
Overall a nice hotel with a great pool :) The staff was friendly and helpful. The decor is old and simple, but the price is really reasonable. We'll definitely stay here again!

text: Utilities need to prepare for roll out of M2M connected devices12 Sep 2014 01:03 PM Utilities and energy firms can tap into major M2M growth opportunities but they must address quality and consumer driven issues, software quality firm SQS arguesSpecialist in software quality provider SQS anticipates major growth opportunities for utility companies through smart meters and smart home platforms, provided they address quality and consumer driven issues.According to mobile phone operator Vodafone's latest M2M barometer report, 20% of utilities and energy firms have now adopted smart grid and smart metering systems, and 17% have also introduced smart home and office offerings — a category that includes home automation, intelligent heating and connected security systems.Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications underpin the new wave of home energy technology, including smart meters and smart home platforms. Software quality specialist SQS believes that risks associated with providing consumers with smart energy devices can be combatted only through rigorous quality and testing programs that are introduced early on in the product development lifecycle.Angus Panton, director of power and communications at SQS, commented: "For many energy suppliers, particularly large companies with extensive legacy IT systems, the connected smart home is a new and ambitious frontier with many challenges, not least integration with core IT systems, security and usability for consumers. As such, energy suppliers' involvement carries risk. Should security be breached or the installation fail to fulfil claims for its performance then consumers may look elsewhere for their services."The pace of growth of smart technologies in energy will rely on combining great functionality with ease of use and high levels of security. Naturally, companies are keen to have assurance that applications they offer to the market will work as advertised – but connected energy devices pose particular challenges given the interconnection issues across networks, as with any complex IT system."SQS has identified priority areas for successfully developing connected devices in the utilities sector, including:Ensure a good customer experienceConsumers will be using smart energy devices every day and so user interfaces and usability are especially critical for the roll out of connected devices and home energy applications. As with applications such as controlling thermostats from smartphones, thorough acceptance testing of the user interface is vital. Real home environments vary widely and utilities need to be confident that their devices will work in most homes: test labs can be used to replicate common variables such as wireless signal strength and meter location. Integrate core IT systems CRM and billing are at the heart of utility company operations, and here the usual terminology – 'end-to-end' integration – really is important. The last thing a utility company wants is to lose the immense value that new apps and mobile communications can bring. The smooth integration of core IT systems and customer communications is critical. Also on the agenda is the provisioning and installation of smart meters, which will lead to workforce management and operational changes that affect suppliers and their ability to roll out millions of meters effectively.Recognise the Big Data challengeThe huge volume of meters and data generated presents a 'big data' challenge, as smart meters can take readings as often as every 30 minutes rather than the current monthly cycle for 'dumb' meters. This means that integration and testing of non-functional performance and operational acceptance testing of billing and data analysis suites is essential.Adopt best practiceMeter systems can involve several different suppliers, including special companies set up to manage communications and infrastructure, as in the UK with the Data and Communications Company (DCC). The need for clear communication with all parties is vital, and best practice should be a shared testing in a repository, so all parties have a single view of the project.Consider the growth of open platformsMany connected energy systems are proprietary applications based on customised hardware. Now the market is moving rapidly towards customer choice driven by smartphones and new smart home development platforms for certain operating systems, such as Apple's HomeKit. This will increase the amount of integration and testing needed, but will be vital to compete in the market.Adopt software quality Accepted approaches in developing applications on time and that deliver the best customer value include Agile development and 'shifting left' to introduce quality and testing earlier in the project development lifecycle. This can be a big change in mindset for in-house software teams, but it is important in new application areas that have complex integration needs or require the involvement of consumers and regulators. Recognise the complexity of end-to-end testingTesting needs to be robust, end-to-end and conducted in both lab and live environments. If user interfaces and systems are not consistent then processes could easily fail - just one of the reasons why there may be concern from consumers. Hardware issues can be more difficult to solve than software problems and fixes can take longer to implement, so testing needs to take into account these differences.Panton concluded: "There are other concerns in the picture, such as security and resilience, which also have to be addressed as part of the quality regime. And this isn't just about energy applications, which are just the start of a major opportunity in the connected home. Those energy companies that get it right with a flexible, fast development platform will have all manner of business opportunities open to them."SQS has an established track record of partnering with energy and utility companies internationally and recently released a white paper, From risky business to smart, successful connectivity, which is available at:http://www.sqs.com/uk/services/connected-devices.php James Atkinson EditorLinkedIn |Google + |Email Leave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...
