Anne Tyng at the Graham Foundation
Louis Kahn collaborator Anne Tyng steps out of the architect's shadow.
For decades, Anne Tyng's architectural accomplishments have been overshadowed by those of the late Louis Kahn, her more famous employer, mentor and sometime lover.
It's appropriate for the Graham to try to remedy this oversight because Tyng, 92, has a special connection to the foundation. In 1965, she became the first woman to receive one of its grants, which she used to write The Anatomy of Form: The Divine Proportion in the Platonic Solids, a treatise on geometry as applied to built form.
The Graham's first-floor galleries display pages from Tyng's unpublished manuscript and bring her ideas to life through giant sculptural installations. Each represents a different combination of platonic solids, i.e. the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron. Designed by Tyng and created in plywood by architect Srdjan Jovanovic Weiss, these constructions vividly reflect Tyng's ideal of "inhabitable geometry." Visitors can step inside each installation to experience its interior space. Icosahedron with nested cube (2011, pictured) is particularly powerful because it resonates with the underlying geometry of the Graham Foundation's historic Madlener House.
"Inhabiting Geometry" also highlights Tyng's application of geometric theory to architectural form. The structural system of the unbuilt City Tower (1952–57), a collaboration with Kahn that Tyng describes as a "totally triangulated tower," forms a vertical helix inspired by the DNA models that figure prominently in her writing. Sometimes Kahn gave Tyng credit, other times not. This exhibition helps her step out of his shadow.

Comments about Bordeaux Floral Vinyl Table Cover:
I have been looking forever for a white vinyl table cloth. It isn't too heavy which makes it hang really nice. I am ordering another one for a spare.
very beautiful, I'm pleased.
By Carolyn
from Beaumont
I use it to cover my woodgrain table for protection. It cleans easily. I am pleased
great size, great price, pretty

About Me Midrange Shopper
A great product. The color is bright and adds to the color scheme I want for any event. It also works well under lacy cloth tablecloth to add color to more formal needs. Used daily.
Not what I ordered! Color wrong!
By Annette
from Hawthorne, NV
I haven't been able to use them yet! The colorswere wrong. What I ordered was 2 different shades of blue NOT Blue on Black. Then I had to pay for return Shipping and handling almost $30.00. Order something like this again! NO way
This table cover meets my needs exactly.
By Gamona
from Cedar Park, Texas
This table cover is well-made and is ideal for a table which gets almost constant use by members of my family. Easy to maintain, and the color and floral design are pleasing. I'm thinking of ordering it in another color.
We would purchase again, Mom loves them
By Daughter & Son
from Florida
The tablecloth is for a large family table that seats 8, Mom has a flooring that has a beautiful green in it. The tablecloth goes so well. It is so easy too just wipe clean after large family gatherings.
Vinyl tablecloth
By Cathy
from Illinois
Just what I've been searching for for ages. My only surprise, though not necessarily bad, is that it wasn't as thick as I'd expected, so it doesn't offer quite as much table surface protection as I'd hoped for. Otherwise, I'm very pleased.
Excellent multi-use tablecloth
By Geraldine In FL
from Winter Garden,FL
We have happily used these tablecloths for years. The pattern is quite elegant. We have doubled our use of the tablecloth by always buying an extra large tablecloth and using it to cover our pale beige fabric dining room chair seats. That way not only is the fabric of the chair protected,but the chairs match the tablecloth exactly, giving a very elegant look. Highly recommended.
Love the tablecover
By Janice
from Rathdrum, ID
We cover the outside tables. They work well.

Love these
By Mom
from Chicago Il
We use this table cloth on our everyday dining table. The only thing that seems to take it's toll on it would be my preschoolers weilding scissors or paint. I love the dark Navy Blue color and that fact that it has a soft backing to prevent table scratching. Wipes clean(provided it's not permanent paint)

Excalibur, as the name suggests, is inspired by the legendary sword of King Arthur from the middle ages. The nine massive sword-shaped blades are designed to produce exceptionally high air pressure, which fortify the cooling efficiency when used in dense water cooling radiators or performance heatsinks.
This is the first fan from Cooler Master to adopt Barometric Ball Bearing (BBB) technology.

DiedPros: Ran fine for ~ 8 months Cons: Only ran fine for ~ 8 months Other Thoughts: Cooler Master sent replacement for defective unit. We'll see how long it lasts... Did you find this review helpful? |
Great Radiatior FansPros: Amazing static pressure. 3.63! For the noise/performance ratio, you can't beat that. Slick looking fans, nice sleeving on the cable. Love the 4-pin PWM plug! Cons: Can be loud at full power, but it IS moving a lot of air at a high pressure. Expensive. Other Thoughts: I own 5 of these in a 900D. For my radiators, it is one of the best fans for static pressure. Not the cheapest, and no LEDs to make it look good, but with a fan controller to help reduce noise, this fan can WORK. Not many normal-priced fans can boast a 3.63 static pressure at a 25mm/120mm fan. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Nice looking fan. Have HAF922 case so can see from outside. Moves more air then rear 120 CM fan that came on case. I small drop on water cooler temp with rear fan config (-.5 max) with stock fan on cooler front side. Cons: Can't tell much for the sound level because case full of fans for overclock. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pros: super quiet, moves a ton of air and easy to clean with the removable blades Cons: none Did you find this review helpful? |
AAA+++Pros: Excellent Fans, just the best you can buy. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Running One Month now... 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great fansPros: My CPU is cool. Cons: My computer sounds like an airplane. Other Thoughts: I don't sleep in the same room as my computer, and I wear headphones... even so, I regret getting 2 of these for my water cooling radiator. Every day when I get home I'm subjected to a blast of white noise until I get used to it after a few minutes. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
The Lady of the Lake would not object to their namesake.Pros: High air flow, mounts horizontally/vertically, lots of adapters, removable blades, aesthetics (black w/o silly lights), PWM, relatively inexpensive. Cons: Loud at high speeds, but still moves a lot of air and quiets down with a controller as mentioned previously. The blade assembly is somewhat difficult to remove and it's very easy to draw blood when it lets go via the sharp plastic cutting fingers, break a fin or, in my case. Oops! Other Thoughts: I'm relatively ...nimble and even after cutting myself once when removing the blades, managed to do it again. For future revisions, may I suggest the finger "guards" be dulled rather than serrated and that the blade assembly be made easier to remove? Admittedly, I didn't R.T.F.M . before attempting to clean 'em, so five eggs just the same as I'm sure it wasn't a trap despite it taking a bite out of me twice. Wield excalibur with care when removing the blades or just use a toothbrush as with other fans. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good if you have the moboPros: Quiet (more on this later) Cons: VERY VERY LOUD if used with a 3-pin on the motherboard (I used the included adapter). Will no doubt be louder than your stock case fan if you have a decent case (mine is the rosewill challenger). Other Thoughts: I made the mistake of not making sure my motherboard had more than one 4-pin slot before I bought it, so I am running only one of these fans instead of the planned two. Before installing that one fan, my case was remarkably quiet for stock fans. When I installed both, it was absurdly loud. Now with only one fan connected to the 4-pin connector, my left-over stock fan is the louder of the two, which is as it should be. Don't trust the adapters - they suck. Even after adjusting the fan speed in the bios and downloading SpeedFan, I still couldn't get that noise down. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Awesome fanPros: not load like other say. these are quite! sure there are quiter fans, however these out perform them. look at the specs and compare them....these win! great cpu cooler fan. Cons: I thought the cable length was too long....go figure. most are not long enough. ...these I had to wrap around and seriously plan on how to route them. no big issue really, just sayin Other Thoughts: comparing cpu 120mm fans to others, these are the best. I did my homework. saving you the time, just buy for cpu cooler!! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
CFM+high mmh2O isn't silentPros: Blowing through a high FPI rad, like the H100 on my server, I want something like this. High mmh20. For the amount of pressure and CFMs these deliver, the noise is, my subjective opinion from building rigs over the last 15+ years, low. It is not a 'silent' case fan, however. If you are looking for that, look elsewhere. I also have some Corsair SP HP fans on my XSPC 360 rad on the gamer, they are louder and produce less static pressure. They whine really much more loudly, and I run them down about 30%. The Silverstones and Thermaltake are noisier, and less pressure. Yates use sleeve bearings that don't hold up long term, and again less static pressure. Enermax makes some good case fans, some are quite quiet, like the one with the orange blades, but again they don't provide the pressure. And the Antecs I've used were low CFM case fans. If you are looking for something to get air through high restriction you can't get much better than this with this noise level. I love that they don't have LEDs, as they are in a 24x7 server in the bedroom. They replaced some XSPC fans that were noisier with less static pressure. I also like that they come PWM, with 3pin and molex adapters. I know I used the word 'pressure' a lot here, but that's what this fan is about, a good amount of _push_ through radiator fins. This isn't a case fan. Cons: Not really best for a case fan, where you can get away with less pressure and noise. And I miss the old days when fans came with grills... Other Thoughts: If you want 'silent', 'low noise', 'whisper quiet' or whatever, then live with static pressure below 2, and CFM below about 50 in a 120mm fan. Don't expect whatever you get to work well attached to a large CPU cooler with dense fins or a high FPI rad. If you need a fan for these applications, and are willing to pick up some noise to get optimum results, this is a good choice. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

When I was 12 years old, my younger brother had a newspaper route with the Hollywood Sun Tattler in Hollywood, Florida. Apparently, it was overwhelming to him, and he would cry when it was time to deliver the paper. When he wanted to quit, I told my mom I wanted to deliver the papers. Of course, in those days (1955), no "girl" had ever been a newspaper delivery "boy."
However, my cool mom thought it was a great idea, and I did it! I started with about 70 customers and got it up to over 100! I bought my own bike with a small allowance. The bike had a large basket to hold all the papers! Every year, I would "solicit" by going around to other homes asking if they wanted the newspaper. Being the oldest of six children, it was a great idea to lift expenses from my parents and make money for myself! The paper came out twice a week, and you had to deliver rain or shine. At the end of the week, I would go to every home, knock on their door, and announce, "Collecting!" I even got tips, too!
At Christmas, I got the most tips. With this money, I could pay my own way to the movies and even get a candy bar! As I got older, I became a majorette, bought my own baton, uniform and boots! I only quit the paper route when I bought my own car (for $25) at 16 and was the only one in my neighborhood with a car to drive to school. I drove all my friends to school since the car was a big, old Lincoln Cosmopolitan with four doors and big seats! (By the way, that car, to my surprise, was the same car John F. Kennedy rode in for the inauguration!) Now that I had transportation by car, I found a job working for the Hollywood Recreation Department as their youngest typist/clerk. They even signed me up for the beauty contests they ran every year at the Hollywood Bandshell. I never won, but I guess I was a good fill in for the other girls. Actually, my best girlfriend in high school won the beauty contest. I paid for my prom dress, yearbook and cap and gown for graduation. I graduated high school on a Thursday, and the following Monday became the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport Director's secretary at 18, becoming the youngest secretary for a County Director. Another first! All in all, I attribute my good work ethic over the years to my frist beginning as a responsible newspaper "girl."

And cried like little bitch. Breaking Bad is un fucking real.
I JUST finished tonight's episode. That was unbelievable. On any other show that would have been about 10 separate episodes.
They are just going balls out for these last show.
Vince Gilligan is a genius.
I'm goin' nuts, baby!!!
So good to see things go Jesse-centric.
great episode.
I can't believe they killed off Robb and Catelyn.
My favorite sound in the world is the silence after the first gunshot. There's a stillness, as though the air itself is afraid to move. I do some of my best work in that silence.
gimp kid in the house when Jesse arrives ??
Just started watching this about 2 weeks ago, already on s04e09
it's like crack
The video confession was the best. ever.

Memorable Baldwin: Kenan Thompson's Pick
Kenan Thompson, entering his ninth year as a cast member at SNL, wasted no time making his pick for most Memorable Baldwin sketch, saying "it's gotta be Schweddy Balls, I mean, right?" And if Kenan's endorsement isn't enough, Ben & Jerry's recent decision to honor the sketch with it's very own ice cream flavor certainly indicates that Schweddy Balls is as classic Baldwin/SNL as it gets.
Fun fact: Even though "NPR: Schweddy Balls" is probably the most remembered, Baldwin's appearance marked the ninth time the NPR sketch was seen on SNL.

U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Richard Carmona endorsed by two newspapers
by Carolyn Classen on Oct. 15, 2012, under Life, PoliticsAz Daily Star editorial board recommends that Arizona voters choose Dr. Richard Carmona (D) to replace Republican junior U.S Senator Jon Kyl (who is retiring). Senator Kyl has served since 1995, and before that as CD 4 Congressman since 1987.
The Tucson Weekly also endorsed political newcomer Dr. Carmona, who served as the 17th Surgeon General of the U.S. under President George W. Bush's administration. Dr. Carmona was a life-long Independent until he registered as a Democrat last November, 2011.
I knew trauma surgeon Dr. Carmona (slightly) when we were both Commissioners on the now defunct Domestic Violence Commission back in the 1990′s. His campaign website is www.carmonaforarizona.com.
Republican candidate for this U.S. Senate seat is CD 6 Congressman Jeff Flake, who has served in that office since 2003, and for CD 1 in 2001 – 2003. He is the nephew of the late State Senator Jake Flake.
Libertarian candidate is Marc Victor, a criminal defense attorney in Phoenix.

Flashback makers missed out on their payday, Symantec says
The high-profile Flashback Trojan that is estimated to have infected more than 600,000 Macs at its peak earlier this year would have earned its creators $14,000 in the course of three weeks.
The only hitch is that the money isn't going anywhere.
In a blog post today, security firm Symantec says the pay-per-click provider the malware makers were using spotted the activity as fraudulent.
"Many (pay-per-click) providers employ anti-fraud measures and affiliate-verification processes before paying. Fortunately, the attackers in this instance appear to have been unable to complete the necessary steps to be paid," the … Read more

Three starters scored in double figures for the Buena Vista women's basketball team on Saturday night, but it wasn't quite enough, as the Beavers fell at home to the University of Dubuque on Play4Kay Night, 74-58.
Senior Jessica Christensen led the charge with 15 points, including a pair of three-point buckets, while also hauling in six rebounds. Fellow senior Laura Hilby also made a pair of long range shots and followed with 13 points and two steals, while junior Brooke Wehle went 6-of-6 at the free-throw line to chip in with 12 points, as well as a team-leading four assists.
BVU made 13-of-15 at the charity stripe for the game, but connected on just 32 percent overall from the field.
The Spartans jumped out to an early 16-5 lead and continued to lead by eight (27-19) with under three minutes to play in the first half. Christensen nailed one of her three-pointers to help spark a quick run which brought BVU back within four with just more than a minute before the break.
A pair of Wehle free-throws brought the margin within three before the Spartans hit one of their three first-half three-pointers en route to a 32-26 halftime lead.
The game was back-and-forth at the start of the second half, with Dubuque hanging onto only a four-point lead (44-40) seven minutes in. The Spartans would push the margin up to eight and maintain that lead until taking a 56-46 lead with under nine minutes to go in regulation. From there, BVU was unable to get any closer than 10.
Mollie Whiting scored a game-high 18 points for Dubuque (14-10, 9-6 IIAC).
Buena Vista is now 10-13 overall (5-9 IIAC) and will close out its regular season home schedule this upcoming Wednesday, February 15, against Luther College at 6:00pm.

How did orchids come into my life? I've always loved flowers, but living in New Jersey limited access to many types of plants. When we moved to Florida 19 years ago I left behind friends, family and unbeknownst to me at the time a void in my quality of lifestyle. Working a corporate job, trying to be an attentive wife and mother, and taking care of a big house with over 2 acres of land was draining. I wasn't organized. The weekends were a blur of laundry, chores and frequent family command performances. We were caught up in the rat race and seriously stressed out. When the opportunity presented itself to move and for me to be a stay-at-home mom I jumped at the chance.
After we were settled in our home and my daughter was in her new school I wondered, "what am I going to do with my time?" I realize now what a silly question that was. The days quickly filled with play dates, school activities and dance lessons. As time went on it became apparent that for the first time in my life I could indulge myself by trying hobbies I had always been interested in.
For my first birthday in the new house I asked for a rose garden. The sod along one side of the house was ripped out and a raised bed was installed complete with an underground sprinkler system. We planted 14 varieties: a couple of climbers, tea roses and other hybrids. It was really beautiful and, unfortunately, I don't have any pictures. I quickly realized what I was in for. No matter how much I sprayed and fussed, rotating chemicals and doing research, they got a black spot fungus. Finally, after about 5 years I began to not replace the roses that died off. This summer I am going to try one rose that is called a "knock out rose" that I am told does not require chemicals. One shrub remains from the original garden planted 16 years ago, a peach David Austin climber that is about 10 feet high and tough as nails.
I love flowers, and contrary to my experience with the rose garden, I do have a green thumb. The roses were just too much work. One day while mirandering along the rows of plants at Home Depot I saw a beautiful white orchid, a phaleonopsis or moth orchid. I was instantly entranced. I brought it home and my addiction to orchids began.
Orchids are basically very low maintenance. They are watered once a week, (misted if in a drier indoor home in winter), and like a south-west exposure,(or lots of indirect light). Their blooms can last for several months. Once they have bloomed you do need to do a bit of maintenance if you want the plant to bloom again. Cut the stem as close to the leaves as you can. If you are feeling adventurous you can repot it very easily. Recently I repotted about 10 of my orchids by removing them gently from the pot by turning it upside down. I cut away any of the roots that looked dried out, and repotted using two kinds of soil. The more dense soil I put around the newly trimmed roots, and I mixed the mulch-like soil with the other potting soil for the rest of the pot. I put the mulch soil on the top, and watered thoroughly. Below is an example of one I repotted.
Many of other orchids have set their buds so I will add pictures to this post frequently. Surround yourself with the beauty of flowers and have a wonderful day!

Yet another example of why we need to rid our society of guns. Even the so-called "responsible gun owners" cannot be trusted with these instruments of death and destruction.
Guns were created for no other purpose than to kill, and along those lines, ownership is completely unconscionable.
Two steps are all it takes:
1. Stop selling new guns. This will immediately stop the flow of new guns into society.
2. Gradually melt down each and every gun as it is identified. This will take time and persistence, but with each day, there will be fewer and fewer guns.Sadly, until President Obama wins a second term and can populate the Supreme Court with more rationale individuals, this will all take time to accomplish.
That's four reasons he shouldn't re-elected. He is an ideologue and will alter the path of this country until it's eventual demise.

2013 Event
Marana Offers Second Chance to Experience Senior Prom
Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance and Marana Health Center to present Senior Prom, featuring dinner, drinks, music, classic car show and more
For some, it was the most anticipated night of the year. Colorful carnations, fragrant corsages, stretch limousines, fabulous dresses and black tie suits – Senior Prom was an event to remember forever.
For those who experienced the special night more than 50 years ago, the memories of prom can dance once again.
Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance (SAACA) has partnered with Marana Health Center (MHC) to present Senior Prom on Saturday, Jan. 19, 2013 from 4 to 7 p.m.
The event will bring back proms from the '40s, '50s and '60s, with big band, dancing, days of Doo-Wop activities and everything else you remember from the evening years ago, including the crowning of the king and queen.
Heavy appetizers and wine pairings from local restaurants will be offered upstairs from 4 to 5 p.m., and desserts will be sponsored by SCAN Health Plan of Arizona.
Attendees can "cut a rug" on the dance floor on the indoor terrazzo while sounds of the 16-piece Memories Big Band play classic greats, such as Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey and Duke Ellington.
A treasure of American music from the '40s to today, the Memories Big Band members have all shared the stage with the legendary musicians of the past. Established circa 1968, the swing band has attracted numerous talented musicians under the leadership of Cliff Juergens, one of the original Kayedettes and trumpet player in the Sammy Kaye Orchestra.
This Martin Luther King weekend event will be hosted in the Marana Health Center, 13395 N. Marana Main St. The center supports accessible and affordable primary health care services for individuals independent of socio-economic status, national origin, financial means or educational status.
Partnering with the Military Order of the Purple Heart as their "social escort" for 2013, Marana Health Center will honor veterans and spotlight the wounded Vietnam Veterans who served in all branches of the armed forces.
The Health Center was introduced to the Military Order of the Purple Heart when Commander David Alegria attended the Senior Prom last year. Sharing the common vision to honor service men and women and connect with community has brought the two organizations together to sponsor the big night for 2013.
A select group of vendors who serve the senior adult population will be onsite to share information and host "spin and win" opportunities.
