In the past two posts we have discussed some pointers for doing research before you leave to ensure that you don't miss a location or an event and some tips on photos while on a family road trip. Now let's get serious about some other important issues.
Packing: do not check your equipment if you can help it. It has a good chance of being stolen or damaged. A photographer friend just returned from an around the world assignment for a large corporation. He started in Sao Paulo then to London, Paris, Barcelona, Moscow, China and home to Seattle all in twenty days. I sat down with him on his return to get the benefit of this recent experience to share with you.
He had to decide whether to carry on his computer or his camera gear from Sao Paulo to London. He chose the computer. He then spent two days in London trying to organize rental equipment for his shoot as his cameras and lights didn't show up. The lights followed him to Barcelona where they caught up with him on his first day there. The case with his cameras followed the next day. When the best camera did arrive it had been removed from his baggage and dropped or abused in some other fashion. He luckily had gaffer's tape with him that served to tape the broken battery slot cover closed on the camera for the rest of the trip. He offers that you should carry on as much as they will allow. Check your clothes etc. You can always buy new ones at your destination.
Photographers that make their living with these kinds of assignments are rather like soldiers. They learn to improvise when things don't go as planned. Try to eliminate all the possible misadventures you can think of before you go. If you have to check some of your gear, put it in the center of a suitcase with lots of clothes around it. Believe it or not the choice of suitcase can be important. Jay Maisel is a long time superstar photographer. I once heard him say that he buys his cases in the thrift store. He goes for the pink "old lady" suitcases that no one would ever think contained the expensive gear belonging to a top photographer. He lines the old suitcases with the same high-density black foam padding that is in most camera cases. Another shooter got stickers from a lab technician that indicated that the contents of his cases were bio-waste. Of course, under today's heightened security rules those stickers might be more problems than they are worth!
If you shoot film, take all you'll need with you on the plane and ask that it be hand searched. You should also be aware that the huge machines that some airports have for screening CHECKED baggage will also damage unprocessed film. But the digital cameras and the cards are all safe from damage from x-ray.
Sometimes the need to improvise goes beyond gear and bags. Another friend, National Geographic photographer, Mike Yamashita, tells the story of being in a situation where he saw a wonderful shot of camels while on his two year long sojourn to photograph the Silk Road. The problem was that the camels were all rental camels and each had a big number painted on its side. So he improvised; shot them backlit so the numbers didn't show and the resulting image is the cover of his book. To see the image go to http://www.michaelyamashita.com/ Select "images" and "Marco Polo" under books. I recommend you review his entire portfolio. Mike is truly one of the masters of travel photography. And some Dreamstime photographers have used the same trick as we see from the camel shots here.
The world lost a creative force in photography when adventure travel photographer Galen Rowell and his wife were killed in a plane crash as they were returning from a photo workshop in August 2002. Galen told me that he trained for his photo expeditions to remote regions of Tibet and other places by running miles with a fully loaded backpack up and down the hills in Berkley, California where he lived prior to moving to a higher altitude in Bishop, CA.
One late afternoon in Tibet he saw a rainbow near the Potala (some spell it Potola) Palace in Lhasa. He recognized that if he could run fast enough, he could get in place so that the rainbow would be positioned in front of the palace. Even though the altitude was over 12,000 feet, he ran 2 miles with his equipment on his back in time to catch the elusive shot. His training and preparation paid off. The San Francisco Chronicle reported in his obit that a single, signed print of that shot had sold for $18,000 in the month before he died. It is also the cover of his book Mountains of the Middle Kingdom.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, Fodor's has a nice section on travel photography. Here are a few of their tips that I picked up from another site:
* For clear campfire shots, let your camera take its exposure readings from a well-lit face. Fire in the frame will throw off your camera's calculations. (Searching on "campfires" in Dreamstime reveals that this is an area that could use more images.) * Research your destination and plan a "shooting itinerary" so you don't miss any great shots. (But remember that some of the best photographs are made when you stray from the beaten path.) * In wild caves, put your camera shutter in the B position and fire your flash multiple times to paint the room with light. * Underwater, colors will photograph naturally to a depth of about 10 feet but fade away quickly beyond that. Use flash.
Remember the no no's. Don't submit photos of Disneyland or any ticketed event where the ticket or the signage indicates that no photos can be taken. Even if photos are permitted, remember that the attorneys for many landmarks like to write letters and so we don't accept those images. Don't submit images of fine art or public sculpture if it could still be under copyright.
I have always said that in advertising photography there is no area of the world with poverty, no children with runny noses, no flies, no slums. For non-editorial use, concentrate on the good things associated with your destination. Zero in on close-ups of food, markets, traditional dress and unique angles of the overly photographed places of interest or go for the magic light moment. You may not have access to photograph Whirling Dervishes in Turkey but you can come home with an image of one on a handbag in a market. Improvise! Site for regulations for flying in and into the US:

I'm a big fan of magnets for feather boards and other applications. You can buy a couple of magna-switches and use them on multiple applications. For resawing, I made 2 feather boards. One elevates the feather board 3" off the table and the other elevates the feather board 6". I can use these in combination with another feather board at the table level. I can move a single set of magna-switches from one to the other. With a table saw, getting the feather boards in just the right position is a breeze with magnets.

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to go to figure them out. I did not realize they could work without the tslot. I am trying to resist buying them, feels like making them might be a good little project for a beginer. I'm hoping to have a shop full of jigs I made like one of my heros Norm Abram. Might seem dumb but it seems like I should make them not buy them. Anyways thanks much for the help. -- Jon, Morgan UT |

I agree Jon, that making jigs are excellent projects. It's not dumb at all. However, there is the law of diminishing returns. For a bit over $30 for two feather boards, I felt I couldn't justify the T&M to make my own. -- Gene 'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.'

Don't you hate when people ask you all the time "what kind of _______ are you"?This video made me laugh my German/American ass off and having a German/American ass you know there isn't much of one!!
Some people are going to find this very offensive and others are going to see the humor in this video, Just be proud of who you are and where you come from. If you get super defensive or sarcastic when people ask about your heritage you only make yourself look bad.

Hi. Making a Lost 5'5 x 19 1/4 x 2 1/4 for myself...
Looking for some help on laying out the fins. If anyone knows the layout measurments & toe/cant for this spec from the original 97 classic rnf (glass ons) , id appreciate your feedback...
Planning to either glass in the twinnies, either ply or make some glassies, or wus out for the sake of shallow reefs and go full fcs , though both can have their disadvantages they both have their good points... You know i want to go glass in really though eh
I plan to template the Mark richards twin template, dont have that yet so if anyone has them or the template for the FCS MRTX or MRTFX im unsure the difference if any in shape?? or anyone who could draw around one of the fins , post that etc etc..

Lost RNF Fin layout
I don't recall that the Lost RNF was sold as a twinnie or quad, for many years. Im not sure that spec is going to be easy for you to get. Weren't they mostly set up as straight up tri fins back then? I've shaped at least 6-8 copies of the ...Lost rnf and the one I like the best is a 5`9 quad. Some of the tri fins were great as well. On the tri-fins I always preferred the small trailer fin and larger side fins. I installed only futures boxes and the 5" side fins/3" trailers I always used was the Gary McNabb fin set. Definately prefer the snub nosed templates like the `97 over the more pulled in noses they started to make later.
Last edited by mitchell; Jun 9, 2012 at 06:54 PM.
Mungo, Got your message asking for the fin placement details. Here ya go:
...Lost RNF 5'9" copy tri-fin. Side fin backs are 11" up from tail, back of fins are 1 1/4" off the rail, toe in 1/4". trailer fin is 3 1/2" up. This was my favorite of the tri-fin attempts. EPS/epoxy.
...Lost RNF5'9" copy quad. front fin backs are 11 1/2" from tail, 1 1/4" off rail, 1/4" toe in
rear fin backs are 5 1/2" up from tail, 1 3/8" of the rail, 1/4" toe in. Also EPS/epoxy. I like the feel of this quad pretty well. Nice and fast down the line with a smooth short turning radius that works in waist - chest high waves.
As far as fin cant goes...i'm pretty simplistic about it...I just install the Futures boxes as flat as possible, and the cant is built into the fins. Good Luck...

Similar fin layout
I was recently searching on swaylocks for a fin layout for a twin. I found this one.
It's looks very much like the fcs mr.
If you print this image you have to scale it ( approx. 130 %).
The fin design is for glassing on (the base line is on the number one).Last edited by LucN; Aug 30, 2013 at 07:20 PM.

I am about 550 pages into my re-read of The Passage and I've noticed some things in the book that relate to the real world (as opposed to a fictional one where banks of lights are used to keep away virals - the name given to infected humans who have turned into sort of superhuman vampiric monsters - and where power outages result in death).
My wife is a police officer and in certain neighborhoods, the police deploy mobile banks of light towers at night. These panels of high-intensity lights are put in high crime areas and theoretically prevent street crime at night. Or scare off the bad guys. (Given the number of robberies in broad daylight, I'm not so sure how well this theory of lights offering protection hold up.) And a patrol car always has to park under the panel of lights while they are on. My sweetie has to do this on occasion and we make jokes about the lights and the virals. But still, in Washington, DC, in neighborhoods not too far from the White House or the Capitol, some streets are so dangerous, lights have to be deployed for fear of attack by marauders. (I suppose this is an attempt at a high-tech solution but it feels so primitive.) (And given the epidemic levels of HIV infection in this city - worst in the nation - the viral parallel and the risk of infection is also too close for comfort in another way.)
Hurricane Sandy is about to hit the Washington, DC area. Or most of the East Coast, including us. And most media coverage of the storm concerns the prospect of flooding and power outages. We had an ultra-violent thunderstorm this summer that left much of the Washington area without power for up to a week afterwards and people are nervous about losing power again. For the most part, nothing bad happened when the power was out. There were many inconveniences and people were miserable but no one really died. But the level of hysteria in media coverage of events might lead one to think that there was or could have been loss of life. Not the case, unlike when a colony only defended by a wall and banks of lights against virals loses power and the lights go out.
The other bit of real world news from my re-reading of The Passage concerns Newsweek magazine. As you may have heard, Newsweek announced the death of its print edition last week. On page 583 of my paperback copy of The Passage, Peter Jaxon finds an ancient copy of Newsweek in an abandoned firestation in the California desert, one hundred years or so into the future. The issue he finds has a photo of a viral on the cover with the headline "Believe It." When I read The Passage the first time in the summer of 2010, Newsweek was alive. But by the time of this reread in the fall of 2012, it is about to stop printing (it will live on as a digital edition) and now it won't ever be possible to create a fictional world where somebody will find an old paper copy of Newsweek in the ruins somewhere.

Hope Sandy wasn't too rough on you, BG.
I'm about 150 pages into The Twelve, and thus far I'm even more impressed than I was by The Passage. Have you started reading it yet? - 8:48 AM

Washington was spared the worst of Sandy so we just had two days of heavy rain.
I am only about 75 pages into The Twelve so far. For the past few weeks, my wife (who read the book the day it came out) has been calling me Danny. Just found out what that was out. - 11:08 AM

Aw, that's just mean! And wildly inaccurate as well, I'm sure.

She calls me and my dog Danny and Dopey. I don't know who/what Dopey is yet. Have you seen The Wire? For years I've been calling her Bubs so this must be pay back. She also calls the dog Babcock.

A more efficient solution would be to mark on the cover of the magazine that this publication contains modified images. After all, it's only the packet of cigarettes that has the cancer warnings, not each individual cigarette.
Besides, will this stop anorexia among readers, or increase anorexia among models, as without photo manipulation, they will actually have to be a size zero.
On a related note, I think I read about the recent London fashion week where a designer used a size 12 model on the catwalk and one of the stylists there walked off in disgust.
So losing sensitive data "last year" is only being reported now as a problem!?
I hope that between losing the material and reporting it (several months later), some action has already been taken to minimise the potential for blackmail.
(I would say that I hope action has already been taken to prevent this from happening again, but I'm not that naive)

5% of babies "have a social media profile"
- 13
Note: This post has been updated, see below.
Win a trip to Amsterdam!
We've teamed up with Product Hunt to offer you the chance to win an all expense paid trip to TNW Conference 2017!
As social media becomes an increasingly important part of life, it's perhaps unsurprising to find out that parents are creating digital presences for their children – sometimes while they're still in the womb.
You may think that it would only be a handful of particularly geeky parents who would bother to set up a Twitter or Facebook account for their unborn child, but a study published today by Internet security firm AVG found that 5% of babies under 2 have social media profiles, while 7% have an email address.
The main reason for doing this, it seems, is to share baby scans and and information about the pregnancy with family and friends. Meanwhile, many more babies are "online" in some form or other. 23% of fetuses had images of their antenatal scans uploaded before birth.
The idea of babies having an online presence before birth and in early life shouldn't be surprising, giving the growth of social media in recent years. A positive side effect of the phenomenon, although the study didn't go into it, is that parents are 'reserving a patch of the Internet' for their kids. That said, Twitter Facebook may well be irrelevant by the time the children in question are able to take advantage of their profiles, superceded by newer and more powerful social technology.
So really, setting up a social media profile for your unborn son or daughter may end up being as useful as giving them a 5.25 inch floppy disk would be today. I suppose that means that it's a good thing that they'll be able to download their Facebook profile data to take elsewhere.
Update: An earlier version of this post said 5% of unborn babies had a social media profile, the figure actually referred to babies under two. This has been corrected within the post.

The 5-button cuff tightens up the borderline, to give enough space for sleeves to hang freely. But that's not all; the shirt also has drawstring and eyelets in front, which indeed was very famous style among pirates. Fabric: Rayon Viscose Fabric Care: Machine Washable

Touchdown Jesus Burns
Tragedy Occurs for Roadside Oddity Lovers !!Touchdown Jesus, the subject of an earlier blog entry, burned to the ground when lighting struck it. Located between Dayton and Cincinnati the Giant Jesus was a landmark and center of activity for the Solid Rock Church of Monroe OH.
As you might expect, the fire that burned the 60 foot statue caused some speculation by church members as to the meaning of the event.
"God struck God, I like the irony. Jesus struck Jesus," said Dawn Smith, 25, of Hamilton, who was among those standing outside the vehicles along Union Road. "I had to see it. What else are you going to do on a Monday night?" Another member of the church was quoted in the Dayton Daily News "It sent goosebumps through my whole body because I am a believer," said Levi Walsh, 29. "Of all the things that could have been struck, I just think that that would be protected. ... It's something that's not supposed to happen, Jesus burning," he said. "I had to see it with my own eyes."
"I can't believe Jesus was struck," said his brother, who noted the giant Hustler Hollywood sign for the adult store across the street was untouched. "It's the last thing I expected to happen."
This is a real tragedy for lovers of roadside landmarks and strange things around the country. The church members say the statue will be replaced. Value is around $300,000.
All of the photos on my blog are original, most of them taken by me or always in my presence, but this time I had to make an exception and swiped these off the Internet.

Oyotunji African Village
This is the Oyotunji African Village near Beaufort SC. Started in the 1970s the village is now the home of about 10 families. The village claims to be "an independent government" and not a part of the United States. Their religion and culture are called Yoruba.
I have lots more photos of the village and will eventually post them. The statues, signs, paint colors, and walls on the 26 acre compound are great. A guide will show you around for a small donation. It is worth the trip if you are in the area.
Touchdown Jesus
This huge statue of Jesus is located off interstate 75 between Cincinatti and Dayton in the town of Monroe Ohio. He was built by the Solid Rock Church in 2004, is 62 feet tall, made out of wood, metal, fiberglass and foam. He took over 60 gallons of paint. The big statue has been nicknamed Touchdown Jesus because of his raised hands. He looks especially good on this overcast day. If you go by here, stop and pull into the church and take a look at this big guy. He is quite awe inspiring.

Flea Market Church
His House is a ministry that works with recovering alcoholic men. Each Sunday morning Reverend Weaver and His House founder Reverend Ramsey hold a 30 minute service at #1 Flea Market in Lexington County, SC. The service always has a short "report or testimony" section followed by words and a bible reading, usually by Rev. Weaver. Nelson Daily and Glenn Barkoot play guitars and sing a couple gospel songs. Most of the people who attend are vendors who open the booths right after the service.

While sitting here sipping my cup of iced Haterade (which doesn't quite have the same effect as regular, albeit diluted, Gatorade has for running and such), I'm going to fill out the MeMe that Adam from Baking with Dynamite tagged me with. Hrmpf. And, my goodness, this is long!
1. Last Movie I Saw In A Movie Theater?
Oh, um, I remember seeing one... I think it was Hancock, the latest Willard Smith movie.
2. What Book Are You Reading?
Pandora's Keepers: Nine Men and the Atomic Bomb by Brian VanDeMark.
3. Favorite Board Game?
Ask my family, I HATE playing board games. I never really thought about why, but I do know why, I just refuse to tell you. Besides, "The only winning move is not to play." (Speaking of which, I'm going to see WarGames tomorrow at the theater!)
4. Favorite Magazine?
I used to like Runner's World, but all the articles became redundant because a) most of it was stuff I already knew, and b) I'm beginning to believe that the magazine is marketed towards beginner runners. I think Running Times magazine has better, in depth articles of use, not that I didn't get anything out of RW. (I think I just told you what magazine I dislike, not my favorite.)
5. Favorite Smells?
"Right before it starts to rain." That's what Adam said, and I agree. I just used a gift certificate at Bath & Body Works for a "fresh water" body spray. Also, outside smells after raining in the country, the aroma of bread baking, COFFEE!
6. Favorite Sounds?
The different sounds that my cats make, the running sound (feet against pavement), the sound a tennis ball makes when it comes in contact with a racquet, the sound of wind and the sound of the ocean/lake/river/you get the drift (the latter being ironic because I don't particularly care to go to the beach).
7. Worst Feeling In The World?
When I let myself down, which usually means I let someone else down, which probably means that I screwed something up.
8. First Thing You Think of When You Wake?
Whether or not to go running in the morning, or wait until the afternoon.
9. Favorite Fast Food Place?
I rarely eat at fast food places, but I make a chicken salad at Wendy's with their Caesar's side salad and chicken nuggets.
10. Future Child's Name?
After a character in Jurrasic Park, Roland sounded like a cool name (until I realized that a friend's name was actually Roland, but I never knew it because I was young and we called him by his nickname).
11. Finish This Statement—"If I Had a Lot of Money, I'd…
Turn myself into a countess à la The Count of Monte Cristo, minus the revenge stuff. I would still have a sidekick, though. Any offers?
12. Do You Drive Fast?
Michigan's speed limit on the highway is higher than Indiana's is!!!
13. Do You Sleep With a Stuffed Animal?
I used to, but now I just sleep with my cat. He's a live stuffed animal. Stuffed with bloody innards...
14. Storms—Cool or Scary?
I love a lightning storm!
15. What Was Your First Car?
Can't remember, but a future car won't be a Jetta VW, and sadly won't be a Land Rover unless I have money to spare after I become a countess.
16. Favorite Drink?
Coffee with milk foam, iced coffee, iced green tea with mint or raspberry with mint, tea smoothies, and soy milk "soft-serve" smoothies.
17. Finish This Statement—"If I Had the Time, I Would…
Run all day, 3 times a week, or drive to different states with awesome trails and go running.
18. Do You Eat the Stems on Broccoli?
Yes, I do. I don't often use it in stir-fries and stuff, but I cut the stems off and snack on them while cooking.
19. If You could Dye your Hair Any Other Color, What Would It Be?
I actually contemplated dying the underside of my hair red, but then I heard it fades quickly and you never really get rid of the red hue. Hm.
20. Name All the Different Cities In Which You Have Lived.
No way am I going to tell the lurkers that! But I was born in El Paso, TX.
21. Favorite Sport to Watch?
Volleyball. It's on again this weekend, too.
22. One Nice Thing About The Person Who Sent This To You
(Nice way to get a compliment, hehe!)
I don't really know Adam very well, and only through his blog, but I have good intuition about people and from what I've read, he seems like a great person to know 'cause he'd try to help anyway he could (judging solely by the informative posts he makes), and would be a fun person to be around.
23. What's Under Your Bed?
Dust, probably.
24. Would You Like to Be Born As Yourself Again?
Is this question literal, or not? Literally speaking, I don't believe we are reincarnated. Figuratively, I'd like to be reborn as a Harvest Sprite.
25. Morning Person or Night Owl?
Quite the catch-22. I love being up very early when nobody else is around, and I like staying up really late when nobody else is around. The afternoon is a waste of the clock, like a void between when everything really begins. I wish I could be like Chuck Norris 'cause he doesn't sleep. He waits.
26. Over Easy or Sunny Side Up?
Sunny side up. But only one, since one is an odd number and two looks like eyes.
27. Favorite Place to Relax?
While running, actually, on a trail. With nobody around. Except for the Ents, but they don't count.
28. Favorite Ice Cream Flavor?
Häagen-Dazs Mango Sorbet.
29. Of All the People You Have Tagged, Who Is the Most Likely to Respond First?
I'm going to tag Chuck Norris, but he's busy so he won't be first.
1. Chuck Norris
2. Antics of a Cycling Cook
3. Olive Juice
4. Pittsburgh Needs Eated.
5. Veggie Girl
23 July 2008

Haha, Ya know this is a lot more fun that I thought originally. I laughed at bunch of your answers and "blood innards" is hilarious for some reason. I forgot about bread baking... bread yeast is definitely a nice scent. I should make that into a cologne, I'd get all the foodies :)
Remember, Chuck Norris doesn't get frostbite, he BITES frost...

Once you have located your resources, you will need to take notes, organize these notes, and synthesize these notes along with your own ideas and opinions making your research uniquely yours! Gathering Organizing & Synthesizing
What notes should I record?
· You will need to use page numbers for parenthetical citation.
Types of notes o Note Cards · Use index cards to record notes. · One side of the index card should have the MLA citing information while the other side has the notes from that source. o Computer Notes · Computer notes can be an easy and efficient way of taking notes but you need to be aware of the risks of plagiarism. · Cutting and pasting from online sources is not taking notes. This is plagiarism.
· Use your computer notes the same as you would pen and paper notes. Paraphrase main ideas, use quotation marks for direct quotes or any words you are taking directly from the source. · Be sure to clearly record the MLA citation information on your computer notes. o Cornell Notes · This is a systematic method of note taking that originated at
· The Cornell Notes method encourages reflection, questioning and summarization. All of these skills lead to better research!
· Create a working Works Cited page as soon as you begin taking notes. It is a good idea to use a word document which you can easily edit when you add or delete a source.
§ A thesis statement is a single sentence that explains the purpose of the paper. · A thesis statement is what your paper is going to prove. · A thesis statement reflects your point of view and the research you have conducted. § The thesis statement should appear somewhere in the introduction of the paper.
· If you answer yes to either of these questions, you will need to do further research to strengthen these areas. |

Wendy Williams: DWTS Controversy and Scandals
Controversial radio host Wendy Williams hits DWTS.
Wendy Williams is mostly known as a radio host in New York who has her daily talk and music show syndicated around the nation. She also has a daily TV talk show that airs in various markets around the country. She has written several books that include fiction and non-fiction. She is potentially one of those people on Dancing with the Stars that some viewers will know very well and others will have never heard of.
Controversy is no stranger to Wendy Williams. She often rubs people the wrong way and has been referred to in a very negative way in song lyrics by some of the biggest rap stars out there including Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and 50 Cent. She was also involved in releasing private information about a sick member of rapper Method Man's family which he was trying to keep quiet. She may well be the diva of this season of Dancing with the Stars and honestly I don't think she is going to go too far. I have a feeling she will think she can do it all including her radio show, TV show and appear on this show. As we have seen in the past that doesn't work. You pretty much have to turn your life over to DWTS if you want to succeed and I don't see her doing that.

Last night, I sat on a panel that discussed – among other issues – New York City's Greener, Greater Buildings Plan, so I thought it would be timely to revisit each of the four pieces of legislation that comprise the plan in more detail. So, this article is the first in a four-part series that will take a closer look at each bill, which Mayor Bloomberg signed into law on December 28, 2009 as an amendment to the Building Code and New York City Charter.
We'll start with the Lighting Upgrade Law, which amends Chapter 3 of title 28 of the New York City administrative code (i.e. the Building Code) and adds articles 310 – Required Upgrade of Lighting Systems – and 311 – Installation of Electrical Submeters in Tenant Spaces.
Article 310 of the Lighting Upgrade Law requires owners of all buildings larger than 50,000 square feet to upgrade the building's lighting systems to energy efficient systems that comply with the standards for new lighting systems set forth in Section 805 of the New York City Energy Conservation Code ("NYCECC") by January 1, 2025. Section 805 is actually part of the part of the Energy Conservation Construction Code of New York, which sets standards for the energy performance of buildings throughout the State of New York. (NYCECC, which we will discuss in much more detail in a subsequent article here at GRELJ, incorporates the state energy code by reference). Section 805 covers lighting system controls, the connection of ballasts, the maximum lighting power for interior applications, and minimum acceptable lighting equipment for exterior applications, but specifically excludes lighting within residential buildings from its purview.
Required upgrades are accomplished pursuant to Article 310 by installing or modifying the lighting system to comply with NYCECC's standards for new systems for the following lighting elements: (i) lighting controls (including interior lighting controls, light reduction controls, and automatic lighting shutoff); (ii) tandem wiring; (iii) exit signs; (iv) interior lighting power requirements; and (v) exterior lighting. Owners must file a report with the Department of Buildings prepared by either a registered design professional or licensed master or special electrician certifying that the upgrade has been completed and that the work is in compliance with the technical standards of the New York City electrical code.
Upgrades are not required for (i) an element of a lighting system that is already in compliance with NYCECC; (ii) lighting power densities in any space bounded by permanent floor-to-ceiling partitions and/or closable doors that are in compliance with NYCECC; (iii) lighting systems within low-rise residential units (R2 or R3) or spaces that serve such units, including, but not limited to, hallways, laundry rooms, or boiler rooms; and (iv) lighting systems within houses of worship.
In addition, Section 311 of the Lighting Upgrade Law requires that, by January 1, 2025, owners or lessors of commercial buildings that are larger than 50,000 square feet measure the electrical consumption of certain covered tenant spaces by installing submeters. "Covered tenant spaces" are (i) individual tenant spaces larger than 10,000 square feet on one or more floors; or (ii) a floor that is larger than 10,000 square feet which consists of individual tenant spaces that are let or sublet to 2 or more tenants. For the latter, each individual tenant space can have its own submeter, share a submeter with the other tenant spaces on the floor, or share one submeter that covers the entire floor.
From a green leasing perspective, although submeters must be installed as set forth in Section 311, the Lighting Upgrade Law does not require the landlord to apportion the cost of electricity among the building's tenants or subtenants in any particular fashion. However, the landlord is required to provide each tenant or subtenant within a covered tenant space with a monthly statement showing the amount of electricity measured by the submeter for each tenant or subtenant during the month, and any amount charged to the tenant or subtenant for electricity. If the covered tenant space is a floor with multiple tenancies (as described above), and the tenant's submeter covers other tenant spaces, the statement for that tenant must show the electrical consumption for the area covered by the submeter and the percentage of that area which is leased by the tenant. As Model Green Lease Task Force head Alan Whitson frequently observes, "what gets measured gets improved," a mantra which is clearly the basis for this provision within Section 311.
Next we'll take a look at NYECC and some interesting legal aspects of the legislation that are making some of Gotham's building owners and facility managers nervous about what could be coming next from the City Council.

Hi All I have read several options here on heating garage.. Anyone know if taking a heat run from the house into the garage is legal here in Ontario. I can pop in about a 3'x6" run from the basement to garage no problem. Everytime the furnace fires up it would push some heat and keep the garage at least above freezing. It is -8C now and the garage is at or above 0 if I don't open the doors.. also well insulated and would keep the room above the garage also warm regards |

Sorry I don't know in Canada, though typically Canada is MORE strict on a lot of codes. Obviously one can ensure that won't happen but no code inspector would give it a thumbs up, and it would have to be taken out if you wanted to sell the house. I would go the space heater route, unless you really want to keep the garage heated all the time. When I bought it 3 years ago I paid $219 but there is no exposed heating element, so I never had to worry about fire from sawdust. -- 'Political correctness is fascism pretending to be manners' ~George Carlin |

I bought one for my two car garage similar to Dave's. It's 5000 watt 240volt 30 amp. It's made by Cadet it's called the HOT ONE. Ive had it about a week and it works great, although we don't have the temps like you did. I was able to get the garage to heat up from 30 deg f to 60 deg f in about 25 minutes. My garage is 400 sq ft. with an 8' 6" ceiling. I paid $225.00 U.S. they make two versions under the same name one is 4000 watt and the bigger is 5000 watt. Get the bigger one if you've got the circuit for it. http://www.cadetco.com/show_product.php?prodid=1012 -- www.thepatriotwoodworker.com Proud Supporter of Homes For Our Troops |

Even at -8 you don't really need to heat the garage for the car as -8 or +8 doesn't really make that much difference to the longevity of the car. If you are storing paint or whatever that is a different question. I use a 4800 watt electric ( on a 240 volt circuit) when I want to work in my shop which is the none car part of my 2 car garage. It was coolish here the other day (mid -20s C) and I had the shop up to 18 degrees in a couple of hours, I actually had to turn the heat down as I was planing some drawer sides and was getting too warm. As mentioned, in earlier posts, I don't think it would be wise to give CO a chance to leak down into the living quarters, and these electric heaters are inexpensive to run. -- "Checking for square?

Is it possible to just install designer radiators in the garage? I wonder if that will be an affordable option for you. I do not know of any other ways to help you though. |

It's their vinyl release party! And opener Windham Flat rules too.
This isn't criticism, just a suggestion, but it would be great if you could include a link or quotes with more information about the band (besides just a song) on posts like these, just because I'm never sure if you're posting it because they're friends of yours or because they are genuinely worth seeing — and if it's the latter, whether it's the kind of music I think I would like. Anyway, hi Allan, keep up the good work!

Gunbird is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up developed by Psikyo. It hit the Japanese arcade in 1994 and was followed by a Japanese release to the Saturn and the Playstation in the following year.The game is set in a fantasy setting with steampunk elements. Lush forests and medieval castles meet steam trains and mech robots. Instead of piloting the genre-traditional space ships, Gunbird lets the player chose between five different characters (Ash, Marion, Valnus, Yuan Nang and Tetsu) who traverse the game world on broomstick, jet packs and pedal-powered helicopters on a quest to find the pieces of a magic mirror across seven stages.
Unorthodox vehicles aside, the gameplay follows traditional genre standards. The main goal is to dodge all bullets that fill the screen while collecting power-ups to make the character stronger. Gunbird features one power-up that incrementally increases the firepower of the standard weapon (P-items) as well as additional ammo for the screen-clearing special ability (B-items). Standard weapon and special ability differ from character to character. Where some characters excel in high firepower in a straight line others allow for a wider spread of bullets or additional homing missiles.

1. Tried reinstalling the wireless driver that should be available at the Sony website or on your Recovery Discs? After such service pack updates, you may need to reinstall the wireless adapters driver.. And sometimes, you may need to visit the adapter manufacturer's website to download and install and UPDATED driver.

The Washington Wizards, stunned earlier Saturday when Trevor Ariza opted to sign with the Houston Rockets, shook off the disappointment in a big way later in the day by landing Paul Pierce.
Pierce, 36, a likely Hall of Famer, agreed to a two-year deal for the full mid-level exception worth $10.8 million, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Pierce, who averaged 13.5 points last season in Brooklyn, has an option for the second year.
The 6-foot-6 small forward spent the first 15 years of his career with the Boston Celtics, winning a championship in 2008, and his former teammate and current Wizards assistant Sam Cassell played a huge role in recruiting him to Washington.

KitchenAid dishwasher lights flashing
Model Number: KUDS25SHBS1 Brand: Kitchen Aid Age: 5 - 10 years
The dishwasher status LED for Child lock begin flashing and no buttons would operater. I tried clearing by holding down the Energy saver button. Reseach indicated the electronic control board had failed. I ordered a new board 8530929 and installed. The washer begin to operate and filled the tub, but stopped and the Rinse cycle button LED begin flashing. I was able to get the water to pump out by pressing the Cancel button. No other buttons will operate and the Rinse cycle button LED continues to blink. I may have received a defective board. I did note that the status LED's glow faintly with both boards. I tried to do a continuity test on the user interface panel buttons, but only the Short wash, Cancel, and Soak & scrub buttons would indicate operation. It is not clear how these buttons function. The panel worked fine before and no buttons seem to be stuck. They all bounce back when depressed. Any thoughts as to my problem before I return the new control board for a replacement?

Beach Trip and Happy Mail Day
Our week at the beach is already over :o( And the picture below captures the weather quite well. We had lots of clouds, much rain and some occasional sunbeams. However, we really enjoyed ourselves. We spent our week with close friends (we just found out that my friend Birgit and I know each other for 29 years now. I guess we are going to throw a party next year :o))) We already went to Kindergarten together, then to primary and secondary school. We had our kids nearly at the same time and our husbands are cousins - so they know each other even longer... made us realize again how old we are...).
Together we have 5 kids (all boys) younger than 5 and they didn't care about the bad weather at all.
They collected sea shells....
... and digged little river systems...
... and "spoke" to the sheep on the dike.
When the rain was pouring down the whole day long, we went to an indoor playground,
that featured a complete ship to climb. That day was another great success :o)
Another rainy day was spent in a small museum for kids. It was full of exhibits to touch in order to discover and understand natural laws and physics. Even our youngest was hooked, e.g. by this giant soap-bubble-exhibit.
Another favourite: making "permanent" shadows on a fluorescent wall:
I brought along some handstitching (can you believe that?!) that I worked on while watching our national soccer team playing in the European Football Championship. Who would have thought that I'd enjoy handstitching one day... never say never... :o)
The kids enjoyed being with their friends, playing, many shared meals and some "only during the vacations exceptions" that we (aka the parents) made - like unhealthful meals, staying up late and so on.
We (the parents) enjoyed the time with our friends that we don't see as often as we would like to, chatting about the kids, remembering long gone days, drinking a glass of wine/ beer (or maybe two).
And we (as a family) enjoyed spending 7 days together, with no set time schedule, lots of outdoor activities (though often in the drizzling rain), more daddy-time for the kids than usual and we really soaked up the rare sunbeams as spring and summer have been really rainy around here until now.
I was quite sad that our family holiday was over but was instantly consoled by a parcel that I found in the mail when returning home: Liz of DandelionDaydreams and I had agreed to privately swap the goodies we made for each other for the Fat Quarterly Sewing Retreat in London. As she was ill, she could not attend eventually and sadly we did not meet "in real life".
I received a gorgeous pincussion that I had already eyed longingly when she posted the picture on her blog (my only two pincussions are samples that I made in my first sewing lesson - I never took enough time to make a beautiful pincussion - so I'm very happy to own such a gorgeous one now!!!). And she added some dandelion fabric, union jack ribbon and a lovely card.
Thank you so much, Liz! Your parcel really made my day :o)
Tomorrow I'm going to pick up my sewing machine (that was at the retailer's office for a check-up while we were at the beach). I'm really looking forward to some serious sewing. Not the handstitching kind :o)
And what about you? Any "only during the holidays" exceptions for your kids? Or for yourself?
Happy Sewing!
Dandelion Daydreams,
happy mail day,
pin cussion,

Christine, ein toller Urlaubsbericht, es ist fast so, als wäre man dabei gewesen! Gut, das Wetter hätte netter sein können, da kann ich dich dann mit meinem Bericht ein wenig neidisch machen ;-). Aber mit so einer netten Gesellschaft von Freunden ist das ja leicht wegzustecken. Wann treffen wir uns wieder? Ich hab Lust auf eine Runde gemeinsames Nähen!
ReplyDeleteHello darling Christine.
I was just popping over here to say a huge thank you for the amazing gifts you sent to me. I had such fun opening it and marvelling at your amazing makes. Thank you so much.
Glad that my ickle house arrived at yours.
Wow, that indoor play area looks fantastic. Wishing I was there! I love those huge bumpy slides. They are my favourite *ride* in the world.

San Rafael police have released a video and a photo of the man who tried to rob a cell phone and check cashing business on Saturday. The armed suspect entered Variedades Cellular at 26 Medway Road around 7 p.m., San Rafael police spokeswoman Margo Rohrbacher said. Three store employees quickly retreated to a back room that is protected by bulletproof glass, Rohrbacher said.
The suspect tried to follow them and fired his gun in their direction, narrowly missing one of the employees, Rohrbacher said. No one was injured and the suspect immediately fled the business without any money, Rohrbacher said. The suspect is a black male in his late 20s or early 30s, 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with a heavy build. He was wearing a black hoodie with the hood pulled over his face, according to police.

This page evolved because I bought a new punch - the honeycombed punch by Fiskars.
Love it.
From one of my Studio Calico kits I encountered this hombre colored paper and decided I'd give the ole dump some gesso on it and roll my SC stamp roller through it.
Worked out pretty good this time beause I didn't dump half a bottle of gesso on it. (you can see my adventures here and inspiration here).
I also purchased some Dear Lizzy chipboard shapes and of course they worked perfectly. And I used the same moss colored vellum paper too. Don't you find you use the same materials?
I put it all toghether and than I had to do something with that gap - so it became a perfect spot for the title. Took me awhile to think of the title - I know. Impressive right??? Geez! LOL!
Anyway I'm really happy and its soooo girly girl. I have another girly girl page in the wings. Waiting on a girly girl photo.
Its gonna be awhile. :|

For many Ahwatukee Foothills residents, suddenly struggling to make ends meet is something they haven't faced since their college days, and something they never thought they would have to worry about.
But the economic downturn has turned lives upside down with layoffs, eliminated bonuses, companies closing, spouses suddenly out of work and investments plummeting.
"Most people live paycheck to paycheck and it only takes one hiccup to create a problem," said Karen Pfander, outreach pastor at Mountain Park Community Church.
"I was getting an increased amount of calls from people who were in trouble, mostly with mortgages, and they were saying 'I don't know what to do,'" said Pfander.
She said that even in Ahwatukee Foothills many families are dependent on two incomes and that if one person is laid off the remaining income just isn't enough.
In an effort to find information, and hopefully solutions, the church and the city of Phoenix have teamed up to present a series of workshops aimed at helping people who are suddenly feeling the economic crunch and don't know where to turn.
The next one is Feb. 19 at 7 p.m. at the church, 24th Street and Pecos Road, where staff from the city's Neighborhood Services Department will discuss options to foreclosure.
For many, who attend have attended previous workshops, the information is all new and something they had no idea existed.
"These are not people who know the system and they are often at a total loss. And because they don't know what to do they often wait too long before asking for help," Pfander said.
But, she said, with information and after checking on resources people can make an informed decision on how best to proceed.
The workshops are open to anyone who wants to learn more.
"These are not just for people in our church. They are for people of Ahwatukee, Chandler wherever people have questions," Pfander said.
For more information, contact Pfander at (480) 759-620-0 or email@example.com.

Recently our neighbors welcomed their first baby into the world. Little Camden is so precious! I made this card to accompany the gift we're taking to share with him. The card base and patterned paper are from partner company Canvas Corp.
I created a tiny stamped dot border on the kraft card base using Distress Ink and Itty Bittys. The pacifier image is from Bits and Pieces, and the sentiment is from Neighborhoods.The soft cream, blue, and brown is perfectly boyish for this occasion.

myStampBOX DT Feature: Family & Home
Today the designers at myStamp BOX are sharing projects about family and home. It's the start of the holiday season, and we turned our attention to using stamping techniques to enhance all sorts of projects. Here's what I made:
I love this photos of my sons with their Grandmother, Patty. I am thankful that she and my father-in-law Miles moved to Indiana to be closer to us. We are able to share birthdays, anniversaries, and all sorts of holidays together. Our family time is very special!
The title on the postcard comes from Summer Alpha, a set I love to color in. I also added two medallions from Seal It! Be sure to stop by the myStamp BOX blog today for my family and home projects from our designers. Happy Thanksgiving!
I used Mini Pennants to create my own banner. The banner "string" was created from one of the border stamps from Repeat After Me. These stamps make it really easy to continue the line without mistakes in order to get a full twelve-inch border...or more!

Fear of firing
No sane person enjoys letting people go, but it's necessary if you want to run a great company. As in any competitive endeavor, it's critical to have the best people. It's easy to keep mediocre employees around, especially when they are nice and loyal -- but it will hurt you sooner or later.
Here's a good test: Would you be relieved if anyone on your team quit tomorrow? If the answer is yes, you've got a problem.

About Commission Junction...
Hey guys, Someone on another message board asked what people thought of Commission Junction. I ended up writing an extensive response... I figured I'd post it here, as it ended up being quite long (but informative).... http://www.very-cool-stuff.com/ubb/smile.gif ------------------------- Commission Junction is great. They are presently my favorite affiliate "network". The others I'm familiar with being Befree, Linkshare, Websponsors, Bachsys, Cyberbounty, Clicktrade, and Clickxchange. Basically, CJ is close to my ideal affiliate network. One of the big reasons why I want to go with a network instead of individual merchants is that the Network can consolidate payments. This way, if I make $20 or so PER merchant (let's say 5 different ones), then the "network" can send me a check for $100, instead of me waiting until I reach the individual minimum payouts PER merchant. I haven't gotten paid by Amazon yet - I just don't drive enough traffic there... yet I've made _some_ money. Befree and Linkshare unfortunately suffer from this as well. They simply bring merchants together - so you still have to wait for (usually) quarterly payments at $20-$50 minimums per merchant. I have not been paid by a Linkshare or a Befree merchant yet due to the minimums... while as a whole, I've made a reasonable amount. (some checks should be coming soon though). You also have to deal with payment issues from each individual merchant. So, you have to chase down individual merchants about payments. Now, Websponsors, Bachsys, and Cyberbounty are good programs as well - and provide consolidated payment. The biggest downfall of these programs, however - is that they don't provide their own tracking code. They rely on merchants to provide them with lead results. So, as a result, you end up having to wait weeks to months before you find out how a program is doing. Makes it hard to fine-tune your advertisments. CJ, though, has close to real time tracking. You can see within a couple of hours, how well a program is doing. That leaves clickxchange and clicktrade. Both very similar to CJ. However, cost of entry for affiliates to join Clickxchange or Clicktrade is very little - as a result, there are a LOT (too many) affiliate programs. Many of which are very transient, and will run out of "funds". So, you really have to stay on top of these programs to make sure you are still being paid for all your clicks/leads. So, Disadvantages of CJ.com? The obvious flip-side to the previous comment... they don't have as many programs... so you might not be able to find as many that "fit" your site. (That being said, they still have quite a few merchants.) As for payment - I've never heard any complaints, and they pay on monthly and within a month after payment. I've received 2 checks so far from them. arn ps. I like all the affiliate networks I've mentioned... |

"Field of Violets"
February has come and gone -- The "Violet" Challenge top is finished, the quilting is only about 1/2 way, but sadly .... not enough to show. Can't wait for the next color.
For more Violet Challenge Quilts, visit Judy at
Patchwork Times
Monday Design Wall - Oh Scraps!
Those cut aways from borders have been taking over the shoe box! My preference is to cut the borders length wise, but when I don't have enough, I cut the width of the fabric and piece them together diagonnally. For whatever reason, I like the 6 1/2" width. When I was sewing together the 10" squares for the back of the "Violet" Challenge (below on the right), I sewed together lots of triangles in between and threw some of them up on the wall.
Now, back to quilting tops!

Monday Design Wall of Kaffe Fassett Flowers
A Quick Hello and glimpse of my design wall. I have a busy week of quilting a top (as in violet), so I need to leave this wall alone! The blocks are alternating 1" framed, 9-patches (9") and 1/2 Seam Flowers set on point using Kaffe Fassett fabric. One day this week, I will make another Kaffe Flower and take a picture of the process, which starts with 4 1/2 x 6 1/2" rectangles.
I am joining other design walls over at
Patchwork Times
, with our host Judy Laquidara.

Something totally different, this project uses a collection of Kaffe fabric and solid Kona brown as the background. Those yellow centers are left overs from the January Yellow Challenge over at
