Posted by Colin McEwen (Editor), December 7, 2012 at 06:52 am 7 Comment Recommend Flag as Inappropriate Loading... x × Next Previous Slideshow Download The 98-year-old Heideloff mansion was officially deemed eligible to become a historic landmark per the city’s ordinance on Thursday night.
The city’s planning commission must now decide whether the property at 13474 Edgewater Drive should get the designation as Lakewood’s fourth-ever historic landmark.
That meeting is slated for next month. It doesn’t appear as if it will be an easy decision.
The neighbors of the property — not the property owners — submitted the paperwork to make the mansion a historic landmark.
The property owners, Michael and Stacey Semaan, then proposed to demolish the home.
Dozens attended the city’s planning commission meeting on Thursday night to weigh in.
“This ordinance (was created) to save some of these structures,” he said. “I am here to plead that this house is worthy of the designation, and I will come back and explain why it needs to be done.” The Semaans said that if the home receives the designation, they would likely sell the home, and believe that the property would lose value.
The Semaans argued that Weber wanted to buy the home, noting an offer he made to them, which they turned down.
A proposal for an extensive renovation to the property was approved by the city last year. Plans to build a second home on a second parcel, near the lake, were also recently approved by the city.
However, Stacey Semaan said there was “resistance” from the neighbors and noted that there are several issues with the house, including a damaged foundation and asbestos in the basement.
“It’s been a nightmare from minute one,” she said. “To get this house back up, it would cost quite a bit of money.”
Instead, the Semaans are now proposing to demolish the home and build another one on the property. The couple — along with their architect Mark Reinhold — presented those preliminary plans to the city’s architectural board of review earlier in the day on Thursday.
“We are either going to get the permit to (demolish the house), or sell it and be gone,” said Michael Semaan.
“If we get that designation, it would ruin the value (of the property).”
In the purchase agreement, the Semaans said that they wouldn’t buy the home if it were going to be designated a historic site. “The Semaans really want to build their dream house by the lake,” Reinhold said. “They don’t want invest $2 million and have it under a bushel. They want people drive down the road and see their hard work.”
“The historical code wasn’t written to be a bully-pulpit.”
Under the city’s ordinance, the commission must host two hearings to determine whether the property — built by a prominent Cleveland industrialist Wilfred Sly — is eligible for the designation. The designation means that demolishing the 98-year-old home would be next to impossible.
Weber, and another neighbor Mary Breiner, submitted a 20-page application, replete with photos and a historical narrative of the property — one of the largest residential properties in the city.
Turns out, neighbors weren’t thrilled with that idea either.
“You have to ask yourselves, ‘if this house doesn’t meet the historical designation, then which ones would?’” said Paul Irwin, a neighbor who lives nearby on Lake Avenue.
“For the Semaans, I can imagine this has been a pretty painful experience. Maybe there’s a solution that already exists, that can bring the parties together that would be a win-win for everybody.”
Board member Hannah Belsito she’s concerned with what could be perceived as a “reactive designation.”
“Is this (proposal) being used as a threat, a shield to protect the building?” asked chairman Mark Stockman. “Is (demolition) being used a sword?”
He also noted that “95 percent” of Lakewood buildings could be deemed historic under the city’s ordinance.
“If this is the first home that we use to designate, this one wouldn’t be the one that comes to the top of my mind,” Stockman added.
The city’s architectural board of review is set to meet next Thursday to hear the demolition proposal. 7 Comment Recommend Flag as Inappropriate Comments + Leave a Comment Show me all earlier comments Missy Limkemann December 7, 2012 at 12:53 pm What makes a house a historic landmark? My house is 114 years old, built by the Nicholson's son and it sits on over half an acre of land. You don't see that anywhere in the city. Recommend Flag as Inappropriate Timothy Carroll December 7, 2012 at 05:36 pm I have thought for the past couple of years that this was a bad law to be on the books, you have someone else trying to define your own property. This ordinance should be re-written to indicate that the owner (or future) of the property must agree to the designation.When the City was putting forth the interior (Historic) designation issue back 2009, I used this very circumstance to argue that this was a bad idea. I hope the Commission denies the application. Recommend Flag as Inappropriate Cindy Marx December 7, 2012 at 06:40 pm I have lived in Lakewood for about 30 years and have never heard of "neighbors" designating a residential property "historic." I know this home has been vacant for a very long time - where were those neighbors good intentions to "save" the home during it's vacant period when it was for sale. Will they help bear the burden of maintaining an historic property in their back yard as they so choose to designate? Those neighbors should tread carefully on the rights of private home ownership within the City, and I believe the City should be careful about setting precidents regarding the designation of historic properties by so called "neighbors." Recommend Flag as Inappropriate T.T. Lakewood December 8, 2012 at 12:57 pm One point that is being missed is the fact that the Ssemans knew what they were purchasing and originally rec'd approval of extensive renovations to the house. The new house was only conceived after they decided they wanted a house on the lake. They knew where the house sat on the property when they purchased the home. You know what you are getting into when you purchased a old home. If you purchased the home only for the property and to build new construction home on it, then why wasn't that the first thing you tried to have done. Recommend Flag as Inappropriate ian king December 9, 2012 at 12:58 pm Hi Cindy,Totally agree! I went through this house during an open estate sale and it is a disaster inside. Nothing special or historic about it at all - except perhaps the mold smell!
I think Lakewood often lives in its own self-perceived importance bubble. Having lived in Philadelphia and Boston, where there are homes that are truly worth the historic preservation label, there just aren't that many special homes in Lakewood that you can't find in almost any other town in the Midwest. What is sooo special about this property from an architectural perspective? Perhaps the only value is its lakefront footage, but that is not historical! This is a very clear case where city government and unhappy neighbors are trying to control the future of their hood according to their own desired values and tastes. And guess what folks, ANYONE who buys a property can decide what they want to do with it, or change their minds if they want to - who cares if plans change? As long as it all meets city code, that is life in any city today, and it is nobody's business. I wonder if all the neighbors who want to use "government" to call this very unexciting/dull visually/ and certainly not important in any historical context home, would want "government" intruding into their lives and trying to control what they want to do with their own personal property..... I truly doubt it! A classic example of using "government" only when it benefits you! Recommend Flag as Inappropriate ian king December 9, 2012 at 01:12 pm Hi again - also, this article describes the interior as being soaring and grand - its interior is truly not that special. I think a more accurate description would be more out of date rooms, especially small, tiny bathrooms and a truly horrible kitchen, that do not accommodate today's lifestyle. Drive into Cleveland and there are many same period homes in Shaker Heights and the Fairmount area of Cleveland that are far grander in appearance, interior, and much more architecturally soaring than this home. If this home is deemed historically important by Lakewood, it will be laughable to many who truly understand the importance of this designation. It is not to be abused lightly, nor to appease unhappy neighbors. Recommend Flag as Inappropriate Richard January 4, 2013 at 07:42 pm Richard 11:34 am on Fri,Jan 4,2013 I think it is a bad thing to do people just care an more.

Creative Miscellany: June 2011
I know, two blogs in as many days is unheard of!! Just a quickie to finish off the update about my new craft room. I know it will be great, but first the clearing out of the old toys. I seem to be spending more time remembering the hours they played with the Lego and what fun we had on many a rainy day with the box of Early Learning animals and who could forget the fingerpaints and dot to dot books............( I could continue , but I won't.)
I have however made some headway in the far end, which was Caileans and boxed up those bits he's donating to charity, but as you can see the middle, which was the art and craft tables and the end nearest the door, which Megan used, are still crammmed with every girlie toy and fancy dress clothes that you could imagine.
I can hear you ask why hasn't she cleared this out earlier? Well, the answer is simple I ALWAYS MEANT to get round to it, but never did.
As you can see it is a mammoth task now, but I SHALL OVERCOME. Have a laugh at my expense, I deserve it. Till next time, when I might have some crafty bits to show.

New Craft Space!!
Hi every one, here I am at long last ,following a very bumpy journey over the last few months. I know I have been a naughty blogger and have let everything slip a little, but I am now resolved to keep my blog up at least once a week. ( I'd like to say even more frequently, but I think that that would be more than wishful thinking!!)
I've a few bits of news to let you in on, and one of them is that I am going to have a much bigger craft space, up at the top of the house on the 2nd. floor where I can make as much mess as I could possibly want. It's three times the size of my other room, so what can a girl do, but sort it out find lots of space and then shop for new stash until every nook and cranny is duly filled. I mean an empty space is so ugly!!!!!
The house had to undergo quite a transformation for me to achieve this, starting with moving all of Bill's office from its original room into a holding area (i.e. The Dining Room ), while I then moved Cailean's toys, equipment and computers, from the old toy room into Bill's old office, before moving all of my craty bits out of my room into the annex kitchen, whilst then returning Bill's office into my old craft room, which Megan and I had cleaned and washed all paint work etc.
They are all happily resituated and have been for some time, but oh wow is me !! My crafty bits are still in the little kitchen. Have a glimpse at the pics. and tell me if you can spot an empty space. ( prizes on a postcard only please..just joking)
All neat and tidy on this side,
I know what your thinking... she has more stash than she could ever use. That may be so, but I so Love looking at it all. I suppose I.m a harmless collector really.
Yes your right we can still just manage to get into the small freezer, I have left ample room around it to open its door. tee hee!!
This wasn't suppose to be a "spot the fixings", but have you managed to find the back door yet????
No chance of using that for a while, nor the dog I've blocked access to the dog flap too and where did I put that cooker??
You know it's been so long since I blogged I'm having real problems putting in the pictures....any suggestions as to the best way? I seem to be spending more of the time trying to get them to sit in the right place!!!! Do you think it's easier to write all the text first and then try to insert photos where you want them, or do them as you go along? Any suggestions would be very welcome, so far this blog has onlt taken 2 hours. It's late now and I was going to show you the new area, but you'll have to wait until the next time.
Sorry, no crafting projects to show just yet, but hopefully in the not too distant future.
By the way if you registered yourself to follow my blog, would you mind doing it again as I some how managed to wipe everybody off, who was a follower, when I was updating it, as a lot of the gadgets I had used had suddenly disappeared and I had to mostly start again!!!!!
Thanks so much and thanks for popping by.

The Hallway: Atta Boy, Canadian Dollar
Well, as I wrote back in 2004 in the post My Prediction, the Canadian dollar has reached parity with the US dollar as of 2:00pm Atlantic time today.
This makes me think I should go buy some shoes in the J C Penny in New Hampshire that is itself bigger than the Charlottetown Mall. I imagine the parking lots near the Canadian border will have more than the usual sight of discarded Canadians' shoes as people leave their old ones right in the lot and put on the new ones to get by customs and save a couple of bucks in duty.
I'm starting to think that the credit crisis, US current accounts deficits, the strong Euro are all forming a perfect storm to deflate the US dollar. Unfortunately the Canadian dollar only looks strong when you compare it to the US dollar, but the Euro and the Yen have been growing steadily against both, only slightly less dramatically against the Canadian dollar. On world markets I suspect that most currency traders still view the two currencies as good or poor buys together, buying both or selling both at once based on what's happening in the US economy. Normally this isn't a bad idea, since our trade relationship is so tight, but I really do see the credit crisis in the US not repeating here. Sure Toronto and Vancouver have ridiculous real estate prices, but I think this reflects genuine demand, rather than inflated prices based on over-eager lending to people who turn around and spend more money than they have competing for every available home up for sale in nearly every major market.
I'm not too worried about this being too harmful to Canada's economy. What will hurt our exporters more than the dollar is simply the dismal economy down South, if people aren't building new houses because they can't get loans, it won't matter how cheap our dollar is if no one wants to by any lumber at all. But at least a strong Canadian dollar will help our ability to trade with the rest of the world, increasing our economic footprint and allowing us to engage on hopefully what will become a more open basis with Europe.
I hope Stephen Harper continues to pay down our debt and doesn't bring in any drastic tax cuts. I wonder if all the staunch supporters of Bush and his tax cuts for the wealthy realize that while they just had their taxes cut by 40%, the value of the money they now have is worth half what it was before Bush came along. But at least they still get to stick it to poor people.

Mystery grows over #Syria’s missing opposition politicians 22/09/12
Damascus // Three leading politicians opposed to the regime of Bashar Al Assad have been abducted by Syria’s feared air-force security agents at a checkpoint on the Damascus airport road.Abdul Aziz Al Kheir, Iyas Ayash and Maher Tahan, all members of the moderate National Coordination Committee (NCC), have not been heard from since Thursday, when they flew back from meetings with the Chinese government in Beijing. “The car they were in was stopped by the air-force intelligence checkpoint, which detained them and escorted them to one of its branches,” the NCC said yesterday. There has been no formal confirmation of the detention by Syrian authorities, a silence that is standard practice. The dozen or more powerful security organisations rarely contact the families of detainees, or announce who has been arrested.Dr Al Kheir, a medical doctor with a reputation for astute political thinking, is a longstanding critic of the Assad family’s authoritarian rule, and was jailed for 13 years by the former president Hafez Al Assad.With the regime now facing the greatest challenge to its rule, and demanding absolute loyalty, Dr Al Kheir’s dissent arguably takes on a renewed significance. He is not only an Alawite, but comes from the same village as the Assad family: Qardaha, a tightly knit community integral to the regime. Syria’s Alawite minority has largely – although far from entirely – sided with the authorities since the start of the uprising last March. Disintegration of that backing would pose a major threat to its hold on power. Dr Al Kheir and his colleagues have made repeated efforts to persuade China and Russia to end their support for Mr Al Assad and, instead, put real pressure on him to end a deadly military crackdown and effectively stand aside.Any hint that those efforts were showing signs of success might prove enough to see them detained.But Damascus is a complex, conspiratorial place and some say the arrests were, in fact, a ploy by the authorities to boost the NCC’s flagging credibility.A widely held theory is that the NCC is a regime-backed puppet – tame opposition designed to deceive the world into believing Damascus does tolerate reasonable political dialogue. The NCC has refused to support the armed revolt, calling instead for peaceful demonstrations, and is resolute in opposing any form of foreign military intervention or support for the rebels. As the uprising has grown, the NCC appears to have haemorrhaged support. A number of its younger, more active members have recently left or are planning to leave, amid criticism that the old-fashioned socialists and Arab nationalists of the NCC – many of them elderly men – are at best out of touch, and have done nothing to help those suffering on the ground or further the cause of unifying the opposition. “All opposition groups know the NCC is orchestrated by the Assad security bodies,” said a leading activist in Damascus.“The regime wants to say this group is genuine by arresting three of its leaders. But they were returning from China on an official visit, they had visas and they openly left and returned from Damascus airport,” something only possible with a green light from the authorities.While other opposition groups such as the Local Coordination Committees have been forced underground, their members arrested or killed, those in the NCC have had their names taken off international travel blacklists and have been able to work in the open.There remain unanswered questions surrounding the disappearance of the men. If air-force security had simply wanted to detain them, it could have done so as they passed through immigration, without even allowing them to leave the airport.Also, through unofficial back channels, commonly used by opposition groups to find out where detained activists are being held, there has been no indication they are under formal detention. Experienced political dissidents depend on personal contacts inside the security apparatus – or bribes – to obtain information on “disappeared” colleagues. This time, however, those channels turned nothing up, activists say. Instead, Syrian officials were saying yesterday that the men had been kidnapped by an armed gang.While that may be unlikely, it cannot yet be ruled out. As violence has spread in Damascus and law and order continues to break down, armed groups, associated either with the regime or rebels, have proliferated. Increasingly there are reports of their being involved in criminal acts including kidnapping for ransom and motorway robbery.The airport road has been closed by fighting on more than one occasion, and daylight abductions are far from rare. In July, Italian workers were kidnapped en route to the airport, and Syrian state media said at the time they had been abducted by “terrorists” and freed during military operations.The prisoners said later they did not know who had abducted them.

How does bison meat taste after being frozen for 30,000 years? Were Ice Age cave painters trying to create "art" or just record history? How did ancient oil spills occur, before there were oil companies to create them? Those are just some of the questions renowned paleontologist Bjorn Kurten answers in this collection of lighthearted essays on fossils, ancient life, and related topics. Written for the general reader, these lively pieces range from a look at how scientific theories are created to some new views of old myths. Among the topics Kurten examines are the history of the Mediterranean Sea, the origin of birds, the theory of plate tectonics (continental drift), and the discovery of Piltdown Man, the "missing link" fossil forgery that fooled scientists for more than 40 years.And, true to its title, the book offers a humorous "recipe" for freezing a mammoth that is tundra-tested, if not totally foolproof. "You may have to expend a few hundred mammoths before everything works out," the reader is cautioned, "But there are plenty of them." (Although the author hasn't tasted the fruits of his mammoth recipe, he did feast on some ancient bison meat that dated from 30,000 years ago. Kurten described the taste as "agreeable.")Throughout these essays Kurten brings the prehistoric world alive with enthusiasm and humor, emphasizing that paleontology is the study of those that lived long ago instead of those who are long dead. As he says, "Isn't it more fun to see a dinosaur as something that used to live, rather than as the monstrous heap of bones which it happens to be at present?"

Intoxicating Beauty: February 2015
Meet another empty of mine. I finally finished it and I thought I'd share my thoughts on it before I toss it out. It's been sitting on my desk for nearly two weeks now. Taunting me to rewrite that post that got effed up.
I was immediately on the hunt for this when I caught wind of its release. And I did find it on Feeluniques page. It's a dry shampoo collaboration between CoLab and the model/youtuber Ruth Crilly "A model recommends". They launched a whole range of scents all named after a fashion city in the originals. I say originals because since then they have launched one with more volume properties.
I chose the Tokyo Oriental Fragrance. Has nothing to do with that the cap is bright pink but more to do with that one of my sisters recently visited Tokyo.
It comes in vaguely gold can with a colored top and some kind of pattern on the lower part. The pattern and color all varies depending on which city you choose. I really like the design.
As for the contents the first thing you will notice is that is very heavily fragranced. I have no idea what the Orient smells like but I'm pretty sure it isn't like this. It has a spicy floral scent to it. And that scent hangs around all day! I caught my self feeling it every time I turned my head. If you wear this there is no need for wearing a perfume, that's how strong it is. The shampoo itself mists out the same way it does in any dry shampoo really. The first half of the bottle was a pure joy to use. It did it's job, no itching and it even added a little lift to the roots. But the second half? The residue got heavier, more powdery and it didn't work as well. I always shake the bottle really well before I use them. And now to something that would've been a real sellingpoint for me had I seen it before doing a review of it is that it says Sheer invisible on the front. This is in no meaning of the word sheer invisible. Not even the first half of it was. Sure, it was less noticeable than the Batiste but the second half was really really heavy on the residue front. I don't know if I got a wonky bottle or if they are all like this.
In any case, if I will buy anything from the range again it will be the one with more volume and in another scent. This was just too strong. I want a more subtle scent and not one that hangs around all day. And another thing, I don't think of the Orient when someone says Tokyo. Just me?

I meant to put a post up lasr friday. It took me over an hour to write but somehow bloggr messed up and was unable to save and publish it. So all my troubles and witty writing went out the window. And it isn't the first time this happens to me. From now on I will write my posts in some form of word program and then paste it all on here to publish. How do you guys solve this kind of issues?
Since then I haven't hade the time to get typing. We are doing something secret that I might show you guys when it's all done.

This kind of post normally requires a picture of the empty products. But me, living with a person who throws everything away and I sorta kinda had a fit last night and cleaned out a lot, there wont be any pictures.
You might remember me telling you a few weeks ago that I thought my foundation was about to run out and I had a hard time deciding which one to get and to actually order it. Well, it did run out about a week ago. And I ordered a new one and I've lived the past week without a foundation! Getting to work with only mascara and my brows done. Can't wait for the new one to get here!
I liked the L'Oreal Infallible foundation a lot. Only complaint is that it wasn't really compatible with dry skin. Which I have all year round but especially during the winter months. But if you have normal skin year round and haven't tried this yet, I really recommend you do.
Oh my Ole Henriksen Read tea facial cleanser lasted me for so long. And it was a dream to use and my skin had no complaints what so ever about it. It lasted me longer than I thought but I still can't bring myself to pay for the full size of it.
And I've finished a shampoo and some shower gels but they aren't that exciting to read about.

I just wanted to wish you all a very happy Valentines day. Mine is almost over, but for some of you, it might be just beginning. I saw a very funny pic on facebook that I wanted to share with you all. Please, don't take this the wrong way.
There's always someone who cares for you. You might not know it, but there is.

The Visual Science Lab / Kirk Tuck: Aug 23, 2019
I recently read, on the web, that Fuji's X-H1 camera might be good....
Well. I guess it's okay. For a cropped frame camera.
I couldn't believe it when I saw the price on the Fuji X-H1 with battery grip AND three batteries drop to $999. It's an amazing price for a fully featured, professional camera. But equally surprising were the legions of photographers who emerged to tout the robust performance, incredible build quality, class leading video performance, near state of the art IBIS and the great way the cameras feels in one's hands.
If only someone had let us know all of this information several months ago! We could have been enjoying the camera all along...
I've heard that some professional photographers love the camera so much they've purchased an extra one. There's a crazy guy with a blog who actually bought three this year!!!!
But, you know....APS-C. And that tricky Fuji X-trans. And those wacky Fuji colors. Oh, and yes! the battery life (or lack thereof). Couple all that with only twenty or so lenses and you have a system that no self-respecting pro could shoot with. But it's fun to think about; right?
Did I mention the strengthened lens mount?
Or the 4K DCI video?
Or the 8-16mm f2.8 lens?
Naw. Nobody wants this....
We'll just wait and see what Fuji announces to replace this.....

Thursday's project with two video cameras and a small cadre of real scientists. Fuji style video production.
Assisted Flying in Pease Park. Austin, Texas
Yesterday Ben and I did a project for the Oceanography Department at UT Austin (my friends in Knoxville have let me know that UT = University of Tennessee; founded long before the University of Texas at Austin. From now on we'll just call our local one "The" University). Our part was pretty straightforward, we were recording interviews with faculty and graduate students about their experiences with an intensive, immersive, three week, hands-on course. From what I gathered listening to the interviews the time spent doing real research on locations at sea is by turns challenging, rewarding and fun --- even the people prone to seasickness rallied and otherwise appreciated the adventure.
The two scientists who invited us to participate in the making of the video are friends that I swim with in our masters swimming program. Between the four of we've logged a lot of miles in the Rollingwood Pool. Seeing everyone in work clothes was a bit out of context.
The team at UT Austin wanted to improve on previous videos that featured a lot of smart phone interviews and less than perfect audio. Ben and I wanted to up the ante just a bit and also provide a second camera angle for all the interviews so that the person who will edit the programs together is able to switch views to avoid monotony.
Our first set of interviews started at 10 a.m. I had scouted the week before and we reserved a big seminar room with great acoustics and lots of space. We loaded in at 9 a.m. and set up our two cameras. I'd done a lot of microphone testing in the last few weeks and found that the Rode NTG4+ is a really good shotgun microphone. We used it for the interviews in this room because it was both large enough and also had great sound abatement everywhere. I wasn't worried about secondary reflections or phase issues caused by reverberation.
We ran the Rode Mic into a Beachtek pre-amp and ran the Beachtek into a Fujifilm X-T3, which I shot as the "main" camera. Since the audio input and headphone amplifier are both very clean in the X-T3 I didn't need to use the audio monitoring on an external device (Atomos Ninja) to make sure the fuzziness we usually hear in the headphones plugged into X-H1s wasn't in the final, recorded signal.
The X-T3 makes audio level monitoring and control easy with great on screen indicators and the ability to punch in for fine focus while recording is something every camera should feature but which was conspicuously absent on the Sony A7ii and A7Rii cameras I owned.
The lighting in the seminar room was great. With very high ceilings and bright LED fixtures (made in tubes to be interchangeable with florescent fixtures), we were able to color match our LED light + soft box with a quick custom white balance. Our light provided just enough front light to give direction and to fill in the "raccoon" eye look that happens when most of the lighting comes from directly above.
We did five interviews in the main seminar room before taking a break for lunch. The department provided a great lunch of chicken and/or steak fajitas along with rice, beans, guacamole and various salsas. Every interviewee was invited along to lunch along with our tiny video crew of two. The wonderful thing about collaborating on projects in an academic environment is that there's never that "life or death" feeling about projects that seems to be part of the corporate mindset. No fear that jobs are on the line or that some unreal deadline is hovering over the project that will keep everyone awake and on caffeine until the project is finally blessed by some sadistic VP over in marketing. That sure made our lunch a lot more fun...
Our next set of interviews was done in a hallway on the third floor of the building. We used a giant, blue, green, and tan colored map of the oceans as our out of focus background. The hallway was flooded with daylight from a window just behind me and it looked pretty incredible as is. Since the acoustics of the hallway and the proximity of the walls was so different than the downstairs area I switched to a lavaliere microphone to combat the known technical issues smaller spaces present to shotgun microphones.
I didn't have the patience to mess with a wireless system, I just wanted a solution that worked in a bulletproof manner, so I kept the radio mic system in the audio bag and pulled out a reliable Audio Technica AT-70, hardwired lav. system and attached it to the pre-amp with a long XLR cable. Perfect audio every time. You do need to be somewhat careful with mic placement (about 12 inches from the subject's mouth) and you do need to tape down cables to keep "thump" resonances at bay, but otherwise the use of a wired microphone in today's age of wireless mania is a nearly foolproof way to get good, clean audio in tight or noisy spaces. And you don't need to worry about interference from other electronic devices.
When we started filming in the morning I put on the 56mm f1.2 APD lens and used it on the main camera at f2.8 or f2.5. The backgrounds look great and the parts of the subject that are meant to be in focus are nicely detailed and snappy. Ben's camera was an X-H1 and he used the 16-55mm lens at a middle-to-wide setting and generally at f2.8. The faster lenses and wider apertures allowed us to stay in the ISO 320-640 range which made for very nice and noiseless files.
Our final location, for four interviews, was in a working lab with the attendant environmental noise of a working space. The lavaliere microphone was the logical choice in this environment as well and it did a good job of rejecting a lot of the room noise; even a vent hood that could only be turned off if we were all willing to take a chance on dying.... (kidding, kind of...).
The two camera system is a godsend for editing as you can weave different looks in and out of B-roll and make your program more dynamic. Ben and I were careful to color match both cameras and to make sure the custom white balances were done in the same settings and at the same angles. There might be slight exposure differences between the cameras but they will be easy to match in the editing process.
Between both cameras we ended up with about 180 Gigabytes of .Mov files. The real blessing of this project, for me and Ben, is that we don't have to edit it. The folks at UT Austin will be doing that in house. Once we deliver a couple of memory sticks were golden.
After we wrapped up and loaded the car the whole group headed over to Austin Beer Works for a celebratory round of Austin's great craft beer. Instead of empty discussions about market share and advertising metrics the table chat was all about "the next expedition." I was a bit jealous as my favorite scientist there told me about an upcoming scientific project in Antartica and a second project in the Mojave Desert. But those are weeks away; he's still recovering from last week's adventures of the coast of Greenland... Sounds even better than being a photographer.
Just transferring the "footage" to some flash memory right....now.

Ricochet -- the group and the album -- offers contemporary country fans some great harmonies that are showcased on ballads like "What Do I Know." There are also some great up-tempo numbers with plenty of guitar action. Overall, the debut is a pretty impressive contribution. Members of the country group are fiddler and guitarist Junior Bryant, bass guitarist Greg Cook, steel guitarist Shannon Farmer, drummer and harmonica player Keith Mellington, keyboardist Steve Paxton, and lead guitarist Heath Wright. All members serve vocal duties, but Wright is the lead singer. Some of the members also handle songwriting. The country band tours a lot, even doing USO shows for the armed services. ~ Charlotte Dillon, Rovi Read Less

Amazon.com: D. Edwards "DD"'s review of Calvin Klein Jeans Women's Modern Bootcut ...
sizing can be tricky, December 9, 2013
By D. Edwards "DD"
This review is from: Calvin Klein Jeans Women's Modern Bootcut Jean (Apparel)
These are great jeans. They fit great and are just as nice as some of the upscale jeans (like Joe's) but for 1/4 of the price.My issue was that I tried a pair on in a store in size 8 and liked them, but they were a tad too tight, so I ordered them from Amazon one size up, but when they arrived, I realized that the size 10 fit the same as the size 8 I had tried on! Too snug, so I had to return them. Quality was great though.

A Recovering Craft Hoarder: Two More Books!!
Two More Books!!
I finished two more books. Good thing, since I started classes this week. I have a SUPER full load; not sure how much leisure reading time I will have or if I'll feel like reading after finishing up homework assignments. Maybe...maybe not. Figured I'd better get in the good stuff while I could.
The first book, Every Last One by Anna Quindlen is a bestseller. I got through it quickly. Warnings: I would rate it a definite PG-13. It's not close to R, but it is also nowhere near PG. That being said, the story is well written and I cried...a lot. I don't want to give the story away, but I will say, it will shock you.
And the book I finished up over the weekend, Matched by Ally Condie is wonderful! I was in mourning the two days after I had finished it. I wanted to read, but the story I wanted to read was Matched.
To make matters worse, it's part of a sequel. I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR SEQUELS. Grrrrrr. I've requested it for Valentine's Day. Problem is, if I'm reading Crossed, I won't be reading my homework. I'm utterly torn. But it's SO good and a great escape from the heavy stuff I'm reading now...no offense, Earth Science book, but I feel like I'm reading a foreign language when I read your words.
Oh yes Every Last One, totally caught me by surprise and I bawled my eyes out!!
I've been wanting to read matched! Looks good!

Analysis of the neurofibromatosis type 2 gene in different human tumors of neuroectodermal origin — Italian Ministry of Health
Lucia Rosaria De Vitis, Andrea Tedde, Francesca Vitelli, Franco Ammannati, Pasquale Mennonna, Paolo Bono, Barbara Grammatico, Paola Grammatico, Paolo Radice, Umberto Bigozzi, Enrico Montali, Laura Papi
The autosomal dominant syndrome neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is characterized by the development of bilateral vestibular schwannomas, meningiomas, ependymomas and gliomas. The NF2 gene, recently isolated from chromosome 22, is mutated in both sporadic and NF2 tumors such as schwannomas, meningiomas and ependymomas. Mutations of the gene have been described not only in the neoplasms usually associated with NF2, but also in 30% of the melanomas and 41% of the mesotheliomas analyzed. In particular, the finding of mutations in melanomas supports the hypothesis that the NF2 gene is involved in the genesis of several tumor types that arise from the embryonic neural crest. In this study we examined, by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, 41 tumors of the central nervous system (11 schwannomas and 30 gliomas), 19 melanomas and 15 Merkel cell carcinoma specimens for mutations in the coding sequence of the NF2 gene. We found three inactivating mutations of the NF2 gene in schwannomas. No alterations of the gene were detected by SSCP analysis of the other tumors. These results confirm the role of NF2 in pathogenesis of schwannomas, but do not define its significance in the genesis of the other neuroectodermal tumors studied.

The NF2 gene, recently isolated from chromosome 22, is mutated in both sporadic and NF2 tumors such as schwannomas, meningiomas and ependymomas. Mutations of the gene have been described not only in the neoplasms usually associated with NF2, but also in 30{\%} of the melanomas and 41{\%} of the mesotheliomas analyzed. In particular, the finding of mutations in melanomas supports the hypothesis that the NF2 gene is involved in the genesis of several tumor types that arise from the embryonic neural crest. In this study we examined, by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, 41 tumors of the central nervous system (11 schwannomas and 30 gliomas), 19 melanomas and 15 Merkel cell carcinoma specimens for mutations in the coding sequence of the NF2 gene. We found three inactivating mutations of the NF2 gene in schwannomas. No alterations of the gene were detected by SSCP analysis of the other tumors. These results confirm the role of NF2 in pathogenesis of schwannomas, but do not define its significance in the genesis of the other neuroectodermal tumors studied.",

NEW YORK (AP) -- Venus Williams is trying to get to the fourth round at the U.S. Open for the first time since 2010 - and at any Grand Slam tournament for the first time since 2011.
While Williams owns seven major singles titles, including two at the U.S. Open in 2000 and 2001, Errani has had more recent success at tennis' most prestigious events.
''She's so focused. She does everything well on the court clearly, because she's a great singles player and a doubles player,'' said Williams, who is 3-0 against Errani in previous singles matchups. ''Every time I've played her, I've had to be focused on every single point, because she does not let up on any point, no matter what the score is.''
''It's obvious that players who play that strong give me problems. They don't let me find my rhythm. They don't let me find my game,'' Errani said. ''Venus is tall, so the balls that I like to play to bother opponents - high shots with topspin - are perfect for her. So we'll see.''
Other things to watch on Day 5 at the year's last Grand Slam tournament:
BIG SERVES: Known as a top returner, Maria Sharapova will need to contend with the owner of the fastest serve in women's tennis.
''Should be a fun one,'' Lisicki said.
FEDERER VS. GROTH: Roger Federer faces a big server at night, too, playing Australia's Sam Groth in the second round.
