A Crochet Christmas 2015 Challange
January is almost gone and I bet, like me, you are soooo done with Christmas and don't want to see another decoration till at least November! Well I'm with you believe me....but I have been admiring this Christmas tree which is featured on Skip to my Lou blog....
and I thought it would be loads of fun to have a Christmas tree this year all decked out in crochet!
My boys are grown now, the youngest having just graduated from high school last spring and I am "down-sizing" Christmas. I simply don't feel the need to put up the big 9 foot tree and fuss over all the fancy decor anymore. It's tiring and I'm just getting too old. I hope to get a nice little 6 foot "slim" tree that I can decorate without dragging in the ladder! And wouldn't it be nice to unpack and store crochet ornaments...nothing to break...just toss them all in a box, no worries!
Well, it's going to take some time to make dozens of ornaments...so....I thought if I started making those dear little things now...maybe I would have enough to at least get the 2015 tree off to a descent start.
My plan is to make at least one ornament a week all year. That's about 48 ornaments or so. I hope I can accomplish more than that, but 48 would be a nice start even if I have to add traditional bulbs this year. Maybe by Christmas 2016 I could have that tree covered in crochet. I love the idea of making the granny square tree skirt too and maybe some stockings as well. This may be a little ambitious since I have other projects to keep up with, but I'm going to give it a whirl.
Last week I worked up these cute little stockings by Angie which I found at Le monde de Sucrette. They are quick and easy to make and the instructions are free. I just love them!
And I've found many other adorable ornament patterns for free that I would love to make. Most of them look very easy...a few look a little more involved. I am also working on some simple "Grandma's Knickknacks" ornaments which are based on my "Grandma's Knickknacks Blanket" motifs which I will be posting soon.
There is a group on Ravelry called Crochet Christmas where members share things that they make throughout the year for Christmas, including crocheted gifts. I have joined the group and will be sharing my ornament projects there as well as here at "Laurel's Place".
If any of you are interested in taking up a similar challenge for Christmas 2015, let me know. I would love to see any of your homemade crochet ornaments and decorations! P.S. You can also let me know it I'm nuts...HO HO HO!

Oh, Laurel, your tree will be beautiful decked out in its crochet splendor! Hmmm.... I love that idea, but last year I decided to just put my tree up with lights and no ornaments... I have to say I really enjoyed the simplicity (and the ease). Still, I think I could enjoy some Christmas banners to hang about! I'm going to think on that. I love your stockings and look forward to seeing all you will do through this year! Those stockings would make a cute banner! The brain is twirling! Thank you for your inspiring post. blessings ~ tanna

The team who will revive the Schiaparelli brand has got a new member
Ex-L'Oreal fragrance division brand manager Camilla Schiavone has been announced as the latest member of the team that will revive the Schiaparelli brand, says WWD .
Diego Della Valle – the Tod's SpA financier behind the resurrection of the iconic label that closed in 1954 – has also recruited Paris-based Farida Khelfa as spokesperson/muse. The brand is expected to announce its creative director in September and show its first collection on the Paris catwalk next March.
The new label will focus mostly on accessories, makeup, and cosmetics, with some clothes as well – a business model that Della Valle has called 'pret-a-couture'. 'There are a lot of rich people in the world who want something very special,' he told the FT in May.

That video lesson on how to draw Tokyo Mew Mew was pretty swell and well done! During this very second, I'm going to be submitting another video that's Mew Mew related. Today you will be learning "how to draw Mew Ichigo step by step." The name "Ichigo" can be frequently mistaken by the lead character from Bleach. I get requests all the time on this character but get a bit confused due to Ichigo Kurosaki. As all of you Tokyo Mew Mew fans know, the name "Ichigo" means strawberry in Japanese! This of course fits the personality of the Tokyo Mew Ichigo character. To "draw Mew Ichigo", you'll have to get familiarized with the basic shape of her head, eyes, and hairstyle. To me, she resembles the character Karin from "Chibi Vampire". The artist that rendered this character, did a great job on the coloring, form, and line work. I really hope you'll enjoy this raving video on "how to draw Mew Ichigo step by step"! I had a great time watching the artist's cool techniques. Peace out and have fun!

Ed Miliband took the unusual decision to hold a teach-in in the House of Commons today. Realising that his "cost of living crisis" line was useless, he thought he might provide a public service by showing us why. The obvious problem with the "cost of living crisis" theme is that, if the economy starts growing, nobody cares.
When this morning began with the release of new jobs figures showing that the economy is indeed growing, the Leader of the Opposition had a problem. If he mentioned the figures, Conservative MPs would hoot and jeer. And if he didn't mention the figures, Conservative MPs would hoot and jeer. So he started by referring to "the welcome fall in unemployment". Conservative MPs hooted and jeered. His first question was to ask if the Prime Minister was worried that so many new jobs were part-time.
This was such a bad question that David Cameron didn't notice it and answered a different one, saying that the Government had taken hard decisions and we were beginning to see the benefit of them. It wasn't until Miliband was asking his second question that someone prompted Cameron to look in his Ring-Binder of Useful Facts, so the Prime Minister answered Miliband's first question when he answered his second. Seventy per cent of the new jobs since the election were full-time, Cameron said. He then repeated answer one and said, "That's the plan. What's his?"
At this point, the Leader of the Opposition is supposed to say, "Let me explain how this works: I ask the questions and he answers them; Prime Minister's Questions means Questions to the Prime Minister, not Questions asked by the Prime Minister." Or words to that effect. But as Miliband was giving a demonstration of how not to do it, he said that the Government had promised to balance the books and failed; and that it had promised to preserve the nation's credit rating and failed. Either of those would have been a reasonable question on its own, but then he added that Cameron had once said "he'd be good at Prime Minister" and had failed at that too. But none of those was his actual question. Instead he returned to the "cost of living crisis" - indeed to the COLC "facing families up and down the country" - and asked how much gas and electricity bills had gone up over the past year.
Cameron didn't answer. Instead he commented on the new hand gesture developed by Ed Balls, sitting next to Miliband. Given that this was a public information session, the Shadow Chancellor helpfully demonstrated what an opposition front-bencher should never do, and showed off the new "pointing down" gesture. This allowed the Prime Minister to quote an anonymous "senior Labour source" in The Sun today who said: "You should not under-estimate how ruthless Ed [Miliband] is. He will not let anyone stand between us and the election - and that includes Ed Balls." Cameron said the Balls was going to need a new gesture, and waved "bye, bye" at him over the despatch box. Childish. Deadly. "You don't need it to be Christmas," Cameron said to Miliband, "to know you're sitting next to a turkey." Childish, rubbish joke. Deadly.
Miliband carried on. He had six questions and he was going to use them. So he tried the cost of child care. Cameron said the Government had provided more nursery places. Miliband, brilliantly but irrelevantly, noticed that this didn't answer the question and so described the Prime Minister's "turkey of an answer", thus cleverly drawing more attention to Cameron's stupid joke about sitting next to a turkey.
Miliband's last question gave him one final chance to show how it is not done. Something about cutting taxes for the Prime Minister's Christmas-card list. Even the "tax cut for millionaires" line loses some of its edge when the economy is starting to grow to everyone's benefit.
John Bercow, the Speaker, brought that part of the seminar to a close by interrupting the next question after Miliband's last to ask for quiet. "We are have just going to have to keep going for a little bit longer," he said, referring to his policy of adding injury time to PMQs to make up for noise and interruptions. This was greeted by loud and long Conservative cheers: the longer PMQs goes on, they know, the more they are winning.

utahlisa Review
I searched for at least two months online & my local furniture stores; I couldn't find anything that came close to the choices on Overstock.com. When I finally did order, I had a "top three", that I narrowed it down to. This chair does have a very firm cushion, but I'm looking at that as a positive; thinking it will hold up better. If you're on the fence about this chair, don't hesitate to get it! Another review mentioned that it looks like it belongs in a boutique hotel; totally agree. I have it our recently remodeled bedroom, couldn't be more pleased with the look and the great price. Local furniture stores wanted at least twice the price for similar chairs. Love, love love it! Thank you Overstock.com for great customer service and the fastest shipping-ordered this on Monday afternoon & had it Wednesday! For $2.95 shipping! Awesome

Wallace; Derek C. Angus ++ KEY POINTS ++ Critical care is expensive for patients, hospitals, and society. Both overall health care expenditures and the proportion dedicated to critical care are increasing. Cost-effectiveness studies are an important component of critical care valuation, both for new and existing therapies. Market forces alone cannot be expected to result in optimal public health—policies informed by cost-effectiveness contribute to improve critical care delivery and efficiency. ++ INTRODUCTION + Pluck the goose so as to obtain the most feathers with the least hissing. —Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Minister of Finance to King Louis XIV of France ++ Critical care medicine is expensive for patients, hospitals, and society. In 2005, Medicare and Medicaid costs for critical care were $81.7 billion, accounting for 4.1% of national health expenditures and 0.66% of the gross domestic product.1 The scale of critical care delivery is also expanding, with an increasing number of hospital beds allocated to intensive care, increasing number of patient days spent in intensive care units (ICUs), and increasing occupancy rates.1 These two factors, growing costs and expanding use, have focused attention on cost-effectiveness studies as a method for appraising resource allocation decisions and weighing the value of new interventions. On March 23, 2010, President Barack Obama signed legislation to overhaul the health care system in the United States with a plan that specifically highlighted the importance of comparative effectiveness research and cost transparency.2 ++ Interest in health care cost and quality, of course, is not new. The origin of health economics as a distinct discipline is often credited to Kenneth Arrow, who in 1963 outlined conceptual differences from general economics. He discussed the principle pareto optimal, the state of optimal cost and benefit for a system (Fig. 6-1). Conversely, when conditions are not pareto optimal, it means that resources can be redistributed with marginal gains for some and without any individual losses. Arrow stated that society will intervene through nonmarket mechanisms (eg, public policy, requests for proposals, or special institutions) when market forces alone do not result in pareto optimal health conditions. The medical care industry exemplifies this tendency to intervene when it is out of balance.3 More recently, the principle of pareto optimal has been challenged as not modeling a desirable equilibrium in health care, but it nonetheless is conceptually useful for thinking about resource allocation. ++ FIGURE 6-1. Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923). Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size|Favorite Figure|Download Slide (.ppt) Source: Wikipedia. ++ Over the next 30 years, cost evaluations increasingly entered the medical literature. As these studies grew in number, there amassed a range of interpretations over meaning of the term cost-effective and a multitude of methodologies.4 In 1996, recognizing a need for uniformity, the US Public Health Service established standards for the conduct of rigorous cost-effectiveness analyses.5-7 The American Thoracic Society (ATS), in turn, established its own guidelines based ...

Synopsis: More advanced than standard technology, Dr. Clark uses Syncrometer resonance to make astounding discoveries. They are all repeatable by anyone trained in this new science. Cancer is caused by a parasite linked to your DNA growth regulators by the alkylating agent, Methylene Blue. This dye accidentally gets into your water from filters and bleaches used to sanitize the water. This starts the linkage to other well known carcinogens to build the cancer-complex. Learn to avoid and destroy the cancer-complex using herbs and other low-tech methods to bring a cure, not just a treatment, for our most dreaded disease. Use electricity to boost your immunity with zapping, plate-zapping and homeography, all explained in this book. As in her other books, Dr. Clark describes her results in a clear, easy-reading style and puts them all in the public domain for your benefit. It will touch your noblest instincts to read how you cure yourself, your pets, and even domestic animals of this disease.
About the Author: It took an independent research scientist to find the answers. Hulda Regehr Clark began her studies in biology at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, where she was awarded the Bachelor of Arts, Magna Cum Laude, and the Master of Arts, with a High Honors major in biology. After two years of study at McGill university, she attended the University of Minnesota, studying biophysics and cell physiology. She received her doctorate in 1958. In 1979 she left government funded research and began private consulting and her own research. These are her results.

Burmese python hatchlings seen on Key Largo:
Federal and state agencies asking residents to report sightings
Burmese python hatchlings have been spotted for the first time on Key Largo, a discovery that's prompting officials to send postcards to homeowners there asking for help spotting the elusive snakes. The postcards show a picture of a python and list a phone number to call if someone spots one.
One 18-inch-long Burmese python was found on Aug. 2, 2016, in Key Largo, and a second similar-sized python was found on Aug. 3 in the same location. A third hatchling was found on Aug. 23 in north Key Largo. These confirmed observations are the first known hatchling-sized Burmese pythons found in Key Largo. These observations suggest that pythons have reproduced near this location, but there have been no sightings of python nests or eggs in the area.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's (FWC) Exotic Species Hotline has received 31 credible reports of Burmese pythons in the Keys over the past five years, with recent confirmed sightings limited to Key Largo.
"While we have documented Burmese pythons in the Keys for a while now, this is the first time we have documentation of hatchlings in the area. This is not surprising considering the proximity to the known breeding population in the Everglades," said Kristen Sommers, section leader of the FWC's Wildlife Impact Management Section.
The United States Geological Survey, FWC and other partners are working together with local residents to increase detection and monitoring efforts for Burmese pythons in the Keys.
"We're sending the postcards in an effort to collect more information on where and how often pythons are being sighted," said Bryan Falk, a USGS biologist. "This information will ultimately help all of the agencies involved focus our research and control efforts in areas where python densities are highest, and hopefully mitigate their further spread. We worry about pythons becoming established in the Keys because there are several at-risk populations of small mammals, like the Key Largo woodrat and the Key Largo cotton mouse, that would be easy prey for Burmese pythons."
Residents and visitors can help by reporting sightings of Burmese pythons and other nonnative species to the FWC's Exotic Species Reporting Hotline at 888-Ive-Got1 (888-483-4681), online at IveGot1.org or by downloading the free "IveGot1" smartphone app.
In addition to sustained efforts to manage Burmese python populations, USGS and the FWC continue to work to improve detection and removal capabilities for Burmese pythons and other invasive species, such as Argentine black and white tegus, in coordination with partner agencies and organizations. For more information about Burmese pythons in Florida, go to MyFWC.com/Python.

OptiGrind CBN Grinding Wheel, Ø 150 x 20 mm
20 mm wide.
With the CBN grinding wheels you can sharpen even HSS and hardened steel on the slowly running double grinder without the risk of the steel getting too hot. A special process allows grinding without coolant. With only slight pressure you achieve an excellent rate of stock removal and stunning grinding results. For additional functions, the side of the wheel is also coated to approx. 17 mm wide. The extreme hardness of the CBN grain ensures a long lifespan. The wheels are made of steel and exactly balanced. Optimal speed range 1700 up to max. 3000 rpm. Can be used on e.g. the Creusen double-wheeled grinder.
Superflange No. 704848 fits Creusen double-wheeled grinders.
Superflange No. 704848 fits Creusen double-wheeled grinders.
CBN Coating
CBN stands for Cubic Boron Nitride, an abrasive grain that is nearly as hard as diamond but much better suited for sharpening hardened steel. Sharpening on diamond wheels produces heat, and from around 170 °C causes a chemical reaction between the diamond grain and the steel alloys which destroys the diamond grain. CBN, on the other hand, only reacts at above 400 °C, and is only destroyed at 700 °C and above.
- Bore32 mm
- GritB91 (standard), similar stock removal properties as an aluminium oxide grinding wheel with grit 180, but provides a better surface quality.
- Ø150 mm
- Width20 mm

Did some research on sealers and while there's a wide range, many/most only work for short storage. This one is an exception. A quality product that works well. One caution is that is large and weighs 20+ pounds so better to have a permanent place for it,

- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Top notch, easy to use.

The Snyder Family {Huntington Beach Family Photographer}
Tuesday, March 18th, 2014Happy Birthday Eden! {Huntington Beach Family Photographer}
Wednesday, May 11th, 2011This adorable family contacted us all the way from Australia! They were planning a trip to California to celebrate little Eden's first birthday and wanted to document the milestone. I met mom, dad, grandma, Jack, Alessandra and Eden at their hotel (The Shorebreak Hotel in Huntington Beach) for a few fun family shots, then headed to the local cupcake shop for a quick birthday treat and finally to the Huntington Beach Pier! They were such an easy going and fun family… a true blast to photograph 🙂 Here are a few of my many favorites from their session, enjoy!
TWINS Luke & Ella! {Huntington Beach Newborn Twin Photography}
Wednesday, May 26th, 2010These two bundles of joy were SO amazing to photograph! Both Luke and Ella were incredibly sweet throughout their entire session and they even gave me a few smiles 🙂 Ella was a total ham for the camera while Luke was a bit more skeptical of the whole situation… he's such a serious little man. Their moms were incredibly loving, constantly showering them with loving words and encouragement which was so touching. Here are a few of my favorites from Luke and Ella's session, enjoy!
Miss Charlee at the Beach { Orange County Baby and Family Photography }
Thursday, March 18th, 2010This ADORABLE family flew to Southern California from Arizona to celebrate little Charlee's second birthday and I was lucky enough to capture some of the fun! Their session took place at the Huntington Beach Pier and since it was Charlee's first time at the beach she was totally fascinated by the sea shells and just a bit terrified of the water… thankfully her mom and dad were there to "save her"! This session was a ton of fun not only because the family was super easy going and infectiously happy but it was one also one of the first sunny days we've had here in California in way too long. Charlee's mom is also a children's portrait photographer so I was feeling just a TAD bit more pressure than usual but we ended up getting some pretty great photos and I made some new friends too. Enjoy 🙂

avida - Auto-adaptive genetic system for Artificial Life research
avida-primitive [options] avida-viewer [options] avida-qt-viewer
Avida is an auto-adaptive genetic system designed primarily for use as a platform in Digital or Artificial Life research. The Avida system is based on concepts similar to those employed by the tierra program developed by Tom Ray. In lay terms, Avida is a digital world in which simple computer programs mutate and evolve. More technically, it is a population of self-reproducing strings with a Turing-complete genetic basis subjected to Poisson-random mutations. The population adapts to the combination of an intrinsic fitness landscape (self-reproduction) and an externally imposed (extrinsic) fitness function provided by the researcher. By studying this system, one can examine evolutionary adaptation, general traits of living systems (such as self-organization), and other issues pertaining to theoretical or evolutionary biology and dynamic systems. The power of Avida is that it gives us a controllable digital system in which to study the theories of evolutionary biology. Often, we can study elements of evolutionary theory that are difficult or impossible in biological systems.

There is a directory with some starting data you can use as a base for your research in /usr/share/alive/. You just have to copy the contents of that directory wherever you want and start running avida-viewer there. You can find HTML documentation about avida in /usr/share/doc/alive/html/. There are two viewer programs available, avida-viewer, which is a text mode one, using ncurses library, and avida-qt-viewer, which is a graphics viewer using qt widgets under the X Windowing System. noviembre 23, 2004

According to a new Yesmail Email Marketing Compass report, an analysis of email metrics over the last five quarters, through Q2 2014, has identified key trends and outlined major implications to help marketers plan for the defining holiday season.
Over the last year, the number of emails being sent to subscribers' inboxes has grown by over 9% year-over-year. And, as more emails are received, recipients open fewer of them, evidenced by an overall email open rate trending down by 3%.
The declining number of openers suggests that subscribers are becoming increasingly selective, says the report. And, as the open rate declines, the decision to click is becoming an even more selective act. Unique clicks saw a 14% decrease, YoY. This is a changing pattern of consumer interaction with email where active subscribers are consistently (and increasingly) opening, but clicking a lot less frequently, concludes the report.
The mixed message, says the report, is that the inbox continues to fill up, fewer people are opening, but the subscribers who are still engaged are opening more than ever.
While mobile opens account for 64.5% of all email opens, mobile clicks make up only 35% of all email clicks. Based on the sheer number of mobile devices and the fact that email is the most popular smartphone activity according to a recent study by the International Data Corporation and Facebook, opens on mobile trump desktop opens almost 2:1 says the report.
But, while consumers are opening email on mobile nearly twice as often as they are on desktop, they are still only half as likely to click via their mobile device. Though the average mobile click-to-open rate has been trending up over the last five quarters, reaching 9.3% in Q2 2014, it has yet to match the desktop click-to-open rate of 22.6%.
Judging from the discrepancy between mobile and desktop click-to-open (CTO) rates, conversion in the form of a click is the biggest challenge for mobile email marketing, and converting on mobile introduces additional challenges. Due to screen size, divided attention span while on-the-go, and varied user experience, mobile email viewers are less likely to click on a message than their counterparts sitting at their desks. Unless the email speaks to consumers' needs in the right context and requires an immediate action, mobile clicks will not improve significantly enough to match desktop clicks, opines the report.
Mobile Activity By Industry (% of Email) | |||
Industry | Mobile Clicks | Mobile CTO | Desktop CTO |
Consumer Services | 59% | 15% | 28% |
Entertainment | 47% | 7% | 38% |
Financial Services | 51% | 2% | 12% |
Healthcare | 41% | 14% | 34% |

Insurance | 59% | 21% | 32% |

Technology | 43% | 4% | 30% |

Currently, consumers are still in the early-to-mid stages of adopting the mobile path-to-purchase, and he slower adoption also translates into a slow increase of the average order size. In addition, some retailers have yet to fully optimize their email content and design to allow their subscribers to react to their offers on-the-go, anytime, anywhere.
Recognizing that getting mobile subscribers to click is harder for marketers than enticing desktop users to click, this challenge applies to mobile purchasing as well. However, the number of mobile purchases has grown considerably year-over- year, says the report. In Q2 2014, purchases completed on-the-go comprised 22% of all purchases, accounting for a 40% increase YoY.

Q2 2014 Percent of Purchases | 78% | 22% |
Q2 2014 Percent of Revenue | 84% | 16% |
Source: Yesmail Interactive, August 2014 |
In Q3 2013, the average order value on mobile (AOV) was only $9 lower than desktop. In Q2 2014, the AOV for mobile was $28 lower than that of desktop, $55 vs. $83.
Average Order Value | ||
Desktop Order Value | $88 | $83 |
Mobile Order Value | $79 | $55 |
Source: Yesmail Interactive, August 2014 |
On the upside, says the report, over the last year, mobile conversion has grown as a proportion of desktop conversion. In Q3 2013, the mobile conversion rate was three times lower than the desktop one, In Q2 2014, mobile conversion rate was only a third lower than desktop conversion rate.
Conversion | ||
| Q3 2013 Conversion | Q2 2014 Conversion |
Desktop | 3.7% | 2.7% |
Mobile | 1.3 | 1.8 |
Source: Yesmail Interactive, August 2014 |
Following a discussion of relevant content, timing and the engaged subscriber, the report concludes by noting that…
Listening to what email data is saying can significantly improve holiday campaigns and result in better subscriber engagement, shorter purchase cycle, larger active database segment, and higher revenue
A path toward a record-setting fourth quarter, requires that marketers must address the disconnect between mobile opens and mobile clicks. Two thirds of opens happen on mobile devices, but mobile accounts for only a third of clicks. And, says the report, content must be relevant to the subscriber and inspires continued engagement with a click.

You Say to Brick
The Life of Louis Kahn
Wendy Lesser
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
416 PagesBarnes & Noble
Born in Estonia 1901 and brought to America in 1906, the architect Louis Kahn grew up in poverty in Philadelphia. By the time of his mysterious death in 1974, he was widely recognized as one of the greatest architects of his era. Yet this enormous reputation was based on only a handful of masterpieces, all built during the last fifteen years of his life.
Wendy Lesser's You Say to Brick: The Life of Louis Kahn is a major exploration of the architect's life and work. Kahn, perhaps more than any other twentieth-century American architect, was a "public" architect. Rather than focusing on corporate commissions, he devoted himself to designing research facilities, government centers, museums, libraries, and other structures that would serve the public good. But this warm, captivating person, beloved by students and admired by colleagues, was also a secretive man hiding under a series of masks.
Kahn himself, however, is not the only complex subject that comes vividly to life in these pages. His signature achievements—like the Salk Institute in La Jolla, the National Assembly Building of Bangladesh, and the Indian Institute of Management in Ahmedabad—can at first seem as enigmatic and beguiling as the man who designed them. In attempts to describe these structures, we are often forced to speak in contradictions and paradoxes: structures that seem at once unmistakably modern and ancient; enormous built spaces that offer a sense of intimate containment; designs in which light itself seems tangible, a raw material as tactile as travertine or Kahn's beloved concrete. This is where Lesser's talents as one of our most original and gifted cultural critics come into play. Interspersed throughout her account of Kahn's life and career are exhilarating "in situ" descriptions of what it feels like to move through his built structures.
Drawing on extensive original research, lengthy interviews with his children, his colleagues, and his students, and travel to the far-flung sites of his career-defining buildings, Lesser has written a landmark biography of this elusive genius, revealing the mind behind some of the twentieth century's most celebrated architecture.
He was tired, and he was not accustomed to being tired. He had always been famous for his energy. He could work all night, make a presentation in the morning, take off on an airplane in the afternoon, chat to his seatmate...
Praise for You Say to Brick
"[Lesser] has an innate feel for Kahn's architecture . . . Her biography is not the first we have of Kahn, but it is notable for its warm, engaged, literate tone and its psychological acuity." —Dwight Garner, New York Times
"Lesser writes beautifully and engagingly . . . What Lesser adds to the Kahn narrative isn't simply a pragmatic understanding of his personal life. She allows the women in his life to emerge as far more than mere satellites to a great male ego . . . The success of this biography lies in the author's fundamental acceptance of the messiness of human life." —Philip Kennicott, Washington Post
"Fascinating . . . This remarkable, readable and humane book pairs painstaking research with poetic interpretations. No detail is too small, as long as it sheds light on one of the 20th century's most admired, influential architects." —Claude Peck, Minneapolis Star Tribune
"[A] superb new biography . . . A careful historian who also has a keen sense of the big picture, [Lesser] bores deeply into Kahn's complicated life, ultimately describing his architecture with as much sympathy and sophistication as she brings to her analysis of his relationships with colleagues, clients, and family members. . . Lesser, throughout, makes astute and sometimes surprising connections between the details of Kahn's personal history and his architecture." —Christopher Hawthorne, Architect Magazine
"If [You Say to Brick] inspires us to do more, whether to seek out deeper study of [Kahn's] works on our own or to see the world with wider, more curious eyes, then Lesser has done something that the best biographers can hope to do but which only a portion of them achieve. That she does so with a voice that can appeal to the uninitiated as well as the scholar makes You Say to Brick all the more impressive, and a deep source of inspiration." —Spectrum Culture
"[You Say to Brick is] a riveting account of Kahn's life . . . Lesser's biography, at once reverential and bracingly candid, serves as a powerful epitaph to Kahn's achievements." —Julia Klein, The Forward
"[Lesser is] a critic of unusual scope . . . [A]n intriguing speculation about the inner drives that propelled [Kahn] to brilliant design and to numerous affairs, illegitimate children, and chaotic business practices." —Harvard Magazine
"Stellar . . . Extensively researched . . . A splendid biography that penetrates the inner lives of Kahn's buildings as well as the inner life of their creator." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"[A] supremely enlightening and involving chronicle of an avid and complicated creative life . . . Lesser tracks with clarity and drama each demanding phase in Kahn's evolution as an ardent and magnetic archictect and teacher" —Booklist (starred review)
"Exhaustively researched and poetically written, [You Say to Brick] offers a fitting and eminently accessible tribute to an architect who so ardently sought to bring beauty to the public square." –Publishers Weekly
"Louis Kahn has long eluded serious attention. He needed careful, fierce, and passionate study to bring alive his remarkable life and work. In Wendy Lesser he has found the perfect interlocutor. This book is a triumph."—Edmund de Waal
"Louis Kahn was in many ways the philosopher king of American architecture, and the masterful buildings he produced exert a hold on us that is even more powerful now than at his death more than four decades ago. Wendy Lesser's You Say to Brick combines a compelling narrative of Kahn's unusual life with a sensitive and knowing analysis of his extraordinary architecture. Few architectural biographies manage to be engaging, thought-provoking, and uplifting at the same time, but this one does." —Paul Goldberger
"We are always intrigued, with great artists we respect, to learn how and what about their personal lives inspired their work. Wendy Lesser's You Say to Brick succeeds in realizing Kahn's long journey from his youth in Europe to his late recognition as one of the great architects of the twentieth century." —Moshe Safdie
"The American architect Louis Kahn was a luminous man, full of secrets, who made some of the most beautiful buildings of the modern era. He was powerfully drawn to the romance of beginnings (in his love affairs no less than in his art), but he also understood modern concrete. In You Say To Brick: The Life of Louis Kahn, Wendy Lesser knows that she has an important but also wonderfully tricky subject on her hands. She brings to life the public art and the private man in ways that do admirable justice to both." —Mark Stevens and Annalyn Swan
"I was very pleased to read this wonderfully written book. It took me back to the memories of my time and conversation with Lou. I must add that this book has indeed recorded and documented his life very well, and it brings the history of Kahn's work and life alive." —Balkrishna Doshi

People often ask me if I plan to have another television show. I finally thought about it, maybe I will. But it will be very different. Before I was focused on entertainment and liked making my guests look good. Some looked so good they used my show to get themselves some very high-profile gigs. Not that I get a nod, thanks, or please be on my guest list once they got too big for the little people.
So if I produced another show, I'd want it to be really entertaining – to me.
I want a segment where someone to sits on a stool and talks for one minute about whatever is on their mind. Everytime they say 'like,' 'um,' or 'omigod, or 'youknowwhahmsayin" I get to smack them in the back of their vapid little head – just under the parietal bone. Yeah!
Next, I will address rising intonation. Yes, that annoying speech disorder that has reached epidemic status. You've heard it - the rising intonation at the end of every phrase or sentence. Makes people sound like they're not really too darn sure about what they are saying. How about a little electric shock for that?
And the piece de resistance - if they say 'awesome,' 'absolutely' or that something 'totally rocks'- I will be there with a pair of metal garbage lids - one on each side of their moronic head - to bang like huge crash cymbols!
Then there's Legal Brief Boy. A handsome and buff young Attorney at Law whose sole purpose is to appear fetchingly in a pair of men's briefs and answer legal questions.
Lately I was looking for work through temp agencies. There are 3 main requirements to be the girl at the temp agency.
1- Have that high nasally voice that is completely undecipherable on the phone and painful to a dog's ears.
2- Sprinkle inane comments such as "too funny," "too weird," or "too cute" throughout your blatantly saccharine whinings.
3- Be able to look job hunters in the eye and lie, lie without shame and lie without ceasing about money.
After comparing notes with fellow job hunters I've learned that it is common practice to call you with a job and tell you what it pays, after you express interest, drop the pay by 50 cents per hour, then when the paycheck comes you see it's been dropped even further and blamed on the client.
It shows what they really think of us. Remember the old joke that ends with a woman asking indignitantly "What do you think I am?" And the man who propositioned her but then dropped the offering price replies "We've already established that, we're just haggling over the price."
Oh, it looks like I've rambled off the subject again. Or not. Tomorrow's post will be about the temp jobs right out of The Twilight Zone.
Stay tuned.

Loss of bladder and bowel control (incontinence) can sometimes result from Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Several strategies may help you deal with this problem:
If incontinence has just recently become a problem, make sure the person doesn't have another medical condition that is causing it, such as a urinary tract infection.

Inspired by 18th-century French architecture, James E. Ware designed these five brick houses with gables and a corner tower that originally sported a conical roof and wrought iron finial. When completed in 1889, they were purchased by business and professional men with families and live-in servants. Around 1930, black families began to move into the neighborhood. Escalating rents forced them to take in boarders to supplement their incomes, and resulted in crowded living conditions, leading to the carving up of the space and the eventual rise of slums in Harlem. | |

You are right Fred, this is a lifetime trip, and this is why I am extremely happy about the professional guidance. Appreciate your comments in this forum, thank you.
Well, it seems you were right :-) I have to say that working with Pepe was an extremely pleasant experience... our group had a lot of questions and ideas, and she was incredibly patient. We ended up with the very interesting idea to split the trip into a "water" part and a "land" part: The "water" part: 7 days in Botswana, covering the Okovango delta, the Zambezi river and the Victoria falls The "land" part: 10 days in South Africa, covering Phinda, Sabi Sabi and a couple of other locations The whole trip will take place between end of May and mid June, and our travel group is already excited. If you plan a trip to southern Africa, I can only wholeheartedly recommend to get in contact with Pepe, you will not be disappointed. So... thanks to all of you for hooking me up with Pepe... I will for sure report back when the trip is over.
Thank you Fred - I sure will. Kind regards, Robert
Dallas - thank you for the reply! I am looking forward to chat with Pepe, as I am sure she knows a lot more than I do :-) I did look at your Photographers Travel website first, but I obviously misread the fact that you offer arrangements in Southern (instead of South) Africa. Anyway, thanks for picking this up and forwarding it. If anyone else wants to chime in and recommend places, I would be happy to hear. Kind regards, Robert
Dear Fotozones members, I am turning to you to get some feedback and some ideas on a safari I am planning to join later this year. I am looking for input regarding locations and who can help with the trip planning. Here is what we know today: We are planning a ~3 weeks trip, starting around mid or end of May 2017. The group will be 4 people (2 pairs), and we don't want to extend the group. We would like to have our own guide(s) for the trip. We have roughly decided to focus on Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Because of the countries we have seen before, South Africa, Namibia, and the countries around Kenya and Tanzania are out of scope. 3 of the 4 people are photographers, so the focus of the trip should be primarily on safari / wildlife, but also on landscape / nature (for example, Victoria Falls), and this is the reason why I am posting this question here. We are looking for input on the following: Recommendations on which places to visit and which ones we can skip Recommendations on who can assist with planning the trip and book flights, lodges, hotels and arrange guides Other recommendations you feel might help Any input from your side is highly appreciated. My last visit to Africa was about 30 years ago, so consider me a newbie. I have looked at travel guides, but they are no substitute for the collective wisdom of people with experience. I am sure I missed some key information, so please let me know what other information I need to provide. Thank you very much in advance, Robert

Shun a federal carbon tax
The temptation is growing in Washington to impose a carbon tax to narrow the federal budget deficit. It could raise billions in new revenue, under the guise of combating global warming.
Backers of this purported win-win proposal seek Republican support, which so far has not materialized, but is necessary for passage.
This supposed win-win solution, in fact, would create great losses. A carbon tax would be a tax on virtually every business activity because the fossil fuel energy it targets provides the vast majority of reliable, affordable power that runs the economy, points out Thomas Pyle of the American Energy Alliance. Those added costs ultimately would materialize as higher consumer prices, fewer jobs and depressed wages and benefits.
The tax also would be regressive because, as energy costs increase, they disproportionately burden the poor. Tax backers respond that some revenue could be given to poorer households to offset their burden.
But what is needed least is another quasientitlement handout to redistribute wealth with the government deciding who gets how much of other people's money. That would be yet another example of government creating a problem, then imposing a government "solution" to mitigate the very problem it created. Better to not create the problem to begin with.
A new carbon tax also would add incentives for American companies to move overseas. Meanwhile, energy costs would increase while simultaneously depleting the domestic job market.
Fans of a federal carbon tax follow the lead of California, where a de facto tax was instituted last week when the state forced large companies to purchase permits to emit greenhouse gases, something they always have done at no cost. Sacramento will be hard-pressed to point to any atmospheric improvement from this first mandated auction that eventually will raise tens of billions of dollars. But they can point to the $290 million the scheme will feed into government coffers this year alone.
The Register has editorialized often that taxes and fees to punish greenhouse-gas emitters has less to do with the supposed goal of reducing global temperatures than it has to do with raising billions of dollars to spend on pet projects that voters are loathe to approve on their merits.
Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Los Angeles, says he hopes a federal carbon tax can help avert the looming "fiscal cliff" of automatic spending cuts and higher taxes taking effect Jan.1, unless Congress acts. "I think there's a growing sense that this might be an easier way of raising revenue than some other alternatives that we've been facing over the last couple years," Mr. Waxman said recently, revealing that tax revenue is uppermost.
In 2010 Congress rejected a cap-and-trade scheme similar to California's, which authorized the state's new auction. President Barack Obama so far hasn't proposed reviving cap-and-trade or imposing a carbon tax. He would do well to oppose both, as would congressional Republicans, and thoughtful Democrats.
