Since there is a great discussion going on in the lens section, it (for some odd reason) made me want to post a comment...
I've been restoring a 1928 8x10 Century Universal. It's getting close to being finished... After I bought hundreds of screws and washers in the hopes of finding some that would fit the original holes and lengths. No small feat!
This camera had a replaced front standard locking plate with a 1/4-20 bolt going through it. I bought a knob to replace the original arm because I thought it would make more room for the bellows and not damage that bellows when the camera was closed. I eventually replaced the replacement with an original piece and found out that the original screw is more of a helical custom thread with absolutely no hopes of ever finding anything else that would screw onto it. So I have to use the original arm. Well, that in itself is not a bad thing I suppose...
Now I'm trying to fit a bellows off the same 'parts camera' which was bought solely because it had a good bellows (and a bunch of original screws). Guess what? The front frame is just a hare larger than the frame from this camera... And the holes through the rear frame _almost_ line up with the hole in this case... They're only a year apart in production...
There's another screw/knob combination that defies identification. Not a standard #4,6,8 or 10... Don't have a clue what it is, but luckily I have the original knob. I just had to file the hole in a washer to fit over it...
And I won't even get into some of the wood screws! Where did they find these things???
It really makes me think sometimes that the mass production idea was a good one. At least parts were more standardized, and available...
Now would anyone be interested in buying a mostly restored Century Universal? Lets see. About 40 hours work so far. Say $25 an hour, so that's only $1000 in time (and not yet done). Only about $30 in screws and washers, not to mention the few hours spent traveling to stores looking for them. It will eventually have a new bellows for another $350. And I'd of course have to add the approximate $450 original purchase price. So the total so far would be about $1,850 and I'm not even done! And I'd have to make some kind of profit right? So lets say an even $2000. Sounds fair to me?
No, I'm NOT really selling it (sorry). It was just starting to dawn on me how much we invest in these things as many folks here restore the old cameras. Have you ever added the totals up? What kind of new camera could I have bought for $2000? And I bet it would be more useable, and the parts would be available!
I'd really love to hear the totals from some others who have restored the old cameras!
Just one of those rambling thoughts being dumped on the board

A nice thing of having a Lee Valley near by is I would have brought the camera to the shop. Pointed to the hole and said screw? They would have gone in back and hopefully found something to fit-) Sure the screw would end up costing a little more then the big mega hardware store but it would save me all that measuring and getting it wrong.
On the mass produced thing. My band saw was mass produced in Taiwan I think. Believe me I seriously doubt two of them are exactly the same. I finally threw the assembly manually out the window and put it together the way it fit. Works fine but it could have used some hand work at the factory.

I fully understand on this one Rich, I am currently restoring a 5 X 7 Kodak 2D and boy, oh boy! I have restored several Graphics and such, and fully understand why in todays dollars they would cost over 2500.00 to produce, thank god there was at least a bit of standardization in the graphics, this 2D is giving me fits. Then I got brave and picked up a field camera the other day at an auction here locally and come to find out the thing is a kit camera from the 20's, it was a camera you could purchase in parts from Sears through the Catalog and put together yourself, talk about some unique stuff on this one, but whats nice about it, is it is a 8 X 10 and weighs in less than 5 pounds going to make a great back packing camera!

Nick: Is that "Lee Valley Tools" who makes all kinds of neat woodworking tools? If so, I would not only visit them, but would be begging for a job there
Yes, some of the screws that I had to mail order I wound up paying as much as .30 a piece for. That adds up quickly when you're not sure of the length or size and wind up buying 50 or 60 to make sure...
Dave: That 2D must be as much fun as the CU! They're both great cameras and it's just nice to know they're being brought back to life instead of winding up in a land fill someplace!
The kit camera from the 20's sounds very interesting! Figures Sears would sell something like that
never knew kit cameras were sold like that back then? There must be a lot of them around, or Sears wouldn't have sold them. Wonder where they wound up??
And I think I'm going for a cup of coffee right now cause we got a major thunderstorm brewing...
Let's hear about more 'projects', and the costs!!!

The 2D is going to be a fun camera when I gt done with it, the wood is really beautiful when you get past all of the years of wear and scratches, I am sure though it will be great, it is quite a low serial number, #114.
Now the kit camera I am really looking forward to working on, currently it is a real cheap pine wood stained dark, what I am going to do is carefully take it apart and redo in a hardwood, I am very fortunate as I have a friend that makes custom archery bows for his business and I have access to some real exotic hardwoods, so as I did with one of the premo 4 x 5's I had, this one is going to be donated to the cause and perhaps marketed for backpacking, but of course after I get my templates, it will be returned to its original condition and either used for pictures or used as home furnishing! I have done this with allot of cameras, it is always great to take one of these monsters out in Glacier Park to take landscapes and see the looks on the digital point and shoot photographers faces!
I stopped figuring costs along time ago, if my wife knew even remotely what I spend on these things, I would be living in the doghouse with the dogs!!!!

The Lee valley stuff varies IMHO. They've taken to recreating some stuff that's either not made by anybody anymore or fairly expensive. I think the old stuff is usually better. Now maybe that's because all the bad copies have been tossed out over the last 70+ years. OTOH some of the stuff they sell are gems. Years back I got something they call a box axe [something like that]. It's very crude. An axe head,hammer and nail claw. All with a pretty ugly looking handle. All for about $10 Canadian. It's well balanced. Heavy enough to knock any nail that dares resist. I used the grinder on the axe face so now that's not bad either. It's cheap enough to not worry if you forget it outside during the rain. Cheap enough I bought two.
Every so often they get special deals on stuff and that's usually worth looking at.

Stooge just got his rear end exposed for everyone to see. From the voice of reason to a clown, "Stoodgedog" can come in all forms.
My folks were teased in California for being from Texas. My dad was told all Texans had brown eyes and we're full of sh--. When Dad said he had blue eyes he was told he was a quart short (he worked in the oil industry).
I have been ribbed for my "accent" and 45 years later am still asked where I'm from. My cousin, in a Texas accent thicker than Steens Cane Syrup blurted out that I talked funny.
The point is that I have experienced sensitivitives from people over the years and have developed a sense as to how I handle things.
I think Tech crosses the line. I think we cross the line when making Brokeback references to McNeese.
Everyone has to make their own determination as to how to handle people. More often than not it's not what you say as much as how you say it.
There are already enough people in this country that are offended for one petty reason or the other.
I think one of the MANY great traits of a true Ragin' Cajun is that we walk to the beat of our own drum and don't give a damn what others think (or say) about us.
What someone says in Southern Arkansas seems pretty far down on the long list of ____ that I give a damn about. Time to kill this thread once and for all.

Islamabad: Ardeshir Cowasjee, one of Pakistan`s best-known columnists who took on everyone from the military to right wing groups in his articles, died on Saturday at the age of 86 after a protracted illness.
Cowasjee, whose weekly columns appeared in the influential Dawn newspaper during 1988-2011, was admitted to a hospital in Karachi more than a week ago with a chest ailment.
Besides his columns laced with his acerbic wit and his forthright take on pressing issues facing Pakistan, Cowasjee was known for his social activism and philanthropy.
He was born into a prominent Parsi business family of Karachi on April 13, 1926.
He joined his family`s shipping business after completing his education from Bai Virbaiji Soparivala Parsi High School and DJ Sindh Government Science College.
He had two children with his late wife Nancy Dinshaw.
In December 2011, Cowasjee decided to stop writing his weekly column.
"Now, old at 85, tired, and disillusioned with a country that just cannot pull itself together in any way and get on with life in this day and age, I have decided to call it a day," he wrote in his farewell column.
The Cowasjee Foundation has funded the higher education of numerous students.
Several of Karachi`s hospitals too are beneficiaries of the Foundation.
Many Pakistanis took to Twitter to pay tribute to Cowasjee.
"Very few people know Ardeshir Cowasjee quietly tried to support upright, young (journalists) financially," tweeted Abbas Nasir, a former editor of Dawn.
"Sad to hear that one of Pakistan`s finest and most conscientious columnists, Ardeshir Cowasjee, has passed away. May his soul rest in peace," said columnist Nadeem F Paracha in a tweet.
President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf were among the politicians who paid tribute to Cowasjee.
Expressing sorrow at the death, Zardari paid tribute to the services of Cowasjee in the field of journalism.
Ashraf said that in Cowasjee`s death, the "nation has lost a true, patriotic Pakistani and a journalist of high calibre and repute whose contributions will be long remembered".
He appreciated that Cowasjee "always espoused the righteous and just causes, no matter how tough the going was".

"Every language is an old-growth forest of the mind." – Wade Davis
A company like Rosetta Stone is, at its heart, made up of the people that work within it and the values they believe in. Our employees often hold up the Rosetta Stone Endangered Language Program (ELP) as one of the best embodiments of the spirit of our company. We're all lovers of language and believe that learning a language can change your life and make the world a better place. We're changing the way the world learns languages. The ELP is one way we hope that learning a language will change the world, especially if learning that language helps to restore cultural identity and enables it to be passed on to the next generation.
With at least 50% of the world's almost 7000 languages headed for extinction within this century, language revitalization sure seems like an overwhelming challenge. Can anything be done about these thousands of languages that are predicted to fall silent so soon? Why would we want to bother? There's been so much written on both sides of this debate that there's little original that I can add. Certainly a language's prestige will wax and wane within its political, historical, economic and social contexts. And certainly this will be reflected in the number of its speakers, who all too often have little control over its future. While one speaker remains, the knowledge acquired through centuries of adaptations to a natural environment endures. But when that last speaker passes, an irreplaceable fragment of humankind is lost.
The Rosetta Stone Endangered Language Program formed in 2004 in response to several North American tribes with an interest in using Rosetta Stone software for revitalization of their languages. Check out our work so far, and our current projects. We're hopeful that Rosetta Stone software will play a key role in language revitalization in these highly motivated communities. And in case you're wondering, you won't see these particular Rosetta Stone products advertised anywhere on our website. They're sold and distributed solely by the communities themselves, and the custom language and photographic content within the software remains the intellectual property of the sponsoring native group.
So what is the mission and focus of the Endangered Language Program? We work with native language communities to create custom Rosetta Stone software for use in their language revitalization programs. We assist native language experts, both remotely and on location, in the creation of custom photographic, audio, linguistic and pedagogical content. We promote global linguistic diversity and embody Rosetta Stone's belief that language learning makes the world a better place.

I definitely would like to see some more complex leveling. I mean, maybe TH doesn't need an ascension mechanic. It'd be interesting to see some actual end-game content. The thing is, if you have ascension, that immediately just about eliminates any option of making the game more in depth, as people will complain about runs taking longer. Though it's more than likely that this will just be ascension-based. I don't know why I'm even talking...

It's more that it's a good way to have reoccurring content without constantly writing new things or making it massively longer.
After all, many games end, and you basically start over, but with a new character. This way, you can start over with the same character.

It's not that I'm doing it "because KoL did it". It's that the ascension and replay mechanic make KoL the first game that I've wanted to play every day for nearly two years straight. That combination provides a continued ever-renewing set of challenges, plus a way to continually allow your character to grow and develop. It's something I find exceptionally satisfying, whether it's collecting skills, trying for speed, messing around with different familiars, trying different combinations of starting scenarios, playing through with differing constraints (and rewards), and other stuff.
It's hard to explain to someone who doesn't play KoL, but without ascension KoL would be a fun place to explore for a couple of months (maybe five or six, even, with all the content they've got), but ascension and the replayability are the things that really keep me coming back. It's what I see as their key mechanic, and it's what I've planned this game around from the beginning.
Also, I'm not sure "endgame is in a week" is going to be an accurate summary. For those who want to, they ought to be able to get through the minimum amount of gameplay within a week and start over, yeah. However, for those who want to more fully explore ideally there will be enough to do that it takes longer than a week. And if getting to the "end" of the game isn't your goal, there should always be other things to do (merit badges, complicated things to explore, extensive but optional quests, etc.). Having a replay mechanism doesn't mean the game is "over" in a week if you don't want to replay.

Full-year Asian Language CONcentration Program
The Department of Asian Studies' FALCON (Full-year Asian Language CONcentration) Program enables beginning students of Mandarin Chinese or Japanese to study in a concentrated manner over a period of time long enough to gain working proficiency.
Participants have ranged from high school students, undergraduate and graduate students, to professionals outside the academic world. FALCON is a rigorous and intensive program, so all applicants should be highly motivated to learn Chinese or Japanese and be ready to put steady effort into the endeavor.
A number of students who pursue degrees in Asian Studies complete FALCON, finding it helpful to reach a high level of proficiency in Chinese or Japanese without previous study. To pursue graduate work in the language, you would need to continue your studies after FALCON. The advantage of FALCON is that you would be able to do so on your own, using the understanding of the language that you gained here.

Corsair Padlock 2 8GB USB Flash Drive Review
Transferring data from one PC to another has become a part of our daily lives, and for most people, USB Flash Drives are the standard means for getting this done. Flash drives not only have the ability to store large amounts of data, but they can also be easily transported from one location to another, making them extremely convenient when compared to other forms of digital storage. With the convenience of carrying around large amounts of data on a small device though, comes the possibility of losing the drive and it potentially ending up in the wrong hands. If you are like most people, whose flash drive consists of simple documents, photos and some MP3 files, this might not be an issue. However, for those with sensitive work or personal documents stored on the device, it could be a real concern. If you happen to fall into this latter category of needing extra security, the new Corsair Flash Padlock 2 may be a good fit. This drive comes with 256-bit AES encryption, anti-hacking detection, a user-defined PIN and a master PIN that can be used if your user-defined code is forgotten. With the ability to lock the drive, it will definitely keep your stored data secure, but the drive also protects your data from physical harm as well. Similar to other Corsair flash drives, the Padlock 2 comes cased in a shock-proof, durable, rubber housing that will protect it from accidental physical damage.
Closer Look:
The Corsair Padlock 2 comes in a clear retail blister package that displays the front portion of the Flash drive. Along with the drive being visible on the front, you also get the name, size and USB type of the drive. On the back side of the packaging there is a short explanation of how this drive can secure your sensitive data, how this this is beneficial to the end-user, and a listing of the accessories.
The drive itself can hold up to 8GB of storage and comes housed in a rubber padding that is very durable and actually makes it feel more comfortable in your hand. When it comes to the size of the drive, even with the 9-digit keypad, it is no larger than other flash drives on the market - around 3" long. On the front of the drive, from top to bottom, you have a Corsair logo, locked/unlocked activity lights, key button, 9-digit keypad, USB activity light, and a small hole to secure it to a key-chain or lanyard. The back side of the drive, unlike the front, is mostly clear - all you find here is Corsair's website address. The accessories that come with the Padlock 2 consist of a blue lanyard that connects to the drive and can be worn around the neck, and a USB extention cable that has a braided metal lining.
By default, the drive is unlocked and there are no security features active until you set a security code for the drive. In order to set the security PIN, you will need to press the key button at the top of the drive and wait for the two activity lights above to start blinking. When you see these lights flashing, you can input a unique security code that is four to ten digits long. After your selection is made, simply press the key button again and the code is now set, securing the drive. The keypad on the drive works very well, with each button pushed being easily recognized. In addition, the spacing between each button greatly reduces the risk of accidentally pushing the wrong number. To enter lock mode, all you need to do is remove the drive from the USB port and it will automatically lock itself. When locked, it has a hardware 256-bit AES encryption, and built-in hacker detection that will lock the drive after five failed password attempts. If, however, the failed log-in attempts are due to a forgotten password, you can use a master code to erase the set password or a 911 option that can erase all user codes, but at the cost of all data on the drive being erased. Whatever state the drive is in will be displayed in the form of a blinking light. When the red light is blinking the drive is locked, when the green light is blinking the drive is unlocked, and when both are blinking you are in a setup mode. These lights on the drive are powered by a internal battery in the casing that is charged each time the drive is in a USB slot.
The Corsair Padlock 2 is built on USB 2.0 technology, which is backwards compatible with UBS 1.1 ports as well. The drive is Plug-n-Play so there is no need to install any software before use, as it will be universally recognized by both Windows and Macintosh based operating systems. To plug the USB head into the port, you must first remove the protective rubber cap that covers the top of the drive and once off, you can either install the drive directly into a USB port or use the included USB extender.
Now that we hopefully have a good idea of what the Corsair Flash Padlock 2 is all about, we can move onto some testing and see what kind of performance this drive can produce.

Is there any better way to start a week of aviation-related travel than by flying in an open cockpit biplane through the canyons of Utah? That's a rhetorical question, the answer is no.
|Stearman pilots, Patrick Veillette (left) and Steve Guenard
My first day in Salt Lake City, where I have come to attend and write about the annual conference of the International Society of Air Safety Investigators, was dedicated to spending some time with my friend Patrick Veillette, who is also my partner in the Comprehensive Medical Aviation Safety Database, and a pilot qualified to fly an astonishing array of aircraft: hot air balloons, gliders, helicopters, business jets, and even the lovely yellow Stearman above with the tail number N1387V.
The Stearman is not Patrick's. It is the proud possession of the Commemorative Air Force Utah Wing, in Heber Valley, Utah, which is the local chapter of a national organization devoted to displaying, flying and overall lovin' of the planes that flew in World War 2.
Patrick and his wife, Kim Henneman who live in Utah are members of the CAF. And because they are gracious hosts, I was invited to go for a ride in N1387V, on this diamond-perfect late summer day.
Unfortunately, a minor technical problem kept the airplane on the ground, so Steve Guenard, honcho at the CAF and a former airline captain with lots of hours in the Stearman would not let me be disappointed. He jumped in and offered to take me for a spin in his Stearman, N7995. This is more than a spruced up 1940s era airplane. Steve says it took him 15-years to turn what was little more than a big bucket of bolts into this beauty.
She is a flying carpet now. We took off from Russ McDonald Field and headed into the valley flying over the home of Robert Redford in Sundance, the spectacular Bridal Veil Falls and then turning back to view sprawling Park City, spotting the occasional orange or golden tree getting a head start on autumn.
|Steve Guenard at the controls of N7995
After landing, Steve, Patrick and I stood around the hangar discussing how much aviation has changed in a short span of time. From simple planes with just a few essential round dials like the Stearman, to the digital cockpit mega-capacity airliners coming off the Airbus and Boeing assembly lines, the debate continues over how this development is affecting aviation.
In his presentation on Tuesday, Patrick is planning to talk about this and the related question, are pilots being trained appropriately for real-world situations? As airplanes reach ever higher levels of complexity are pilots overwhelmed? If so, how do commercial operations scale back, simplify the cockpit so that pilots can maintain attention to appropriate tasks rather than - for example - being distracted by arbitrary checklists that are the legacy of an earlier era?
These are not easy questions. I'm reminded of the excellent essay of more than a decade ago, by William Langewiesche in his book, Inside the Sky, in which he discusses the contradiction that highly developed systems intended to safeguard actually create more pathways for error. He didn't have any answers either.
|Anthony Brickhouse, Brittnee Branham Albert Moussa and Patrick Veillette at ISASI opening reception

Bright, Striped Kasia
Added Aug 16, 2013
by b-ella
Brooklyn, New Yo...
I found this fabric while I was traveling in Mexico. I loved the multi-colored stripes, and I was really into the idea of wearing it as a pencil skirt.
I made it into a version of the Kasia. But I decided, as I was putting it together, that I didn't really want to make it with the pockets. I thought it would end up looking messy. So I kept the different colored fabric where the pockets should have been, as an accent.
I still love the colors of this skirt. But it turns out that the skirt is totally unwearable. The fabric, itself, was definitely not made for a tight garment. I should have seen that coming. The first time I put it on, I realized that the fabric was unraveling along the seams.

Adrian Kingsley-Hughes pens a rant on Windows 8, calling it 'awful': "I'm now ready to sum up my Windows 8 experience with a single word: awful. I could have chosen a number of other words - terrible, horrible, painful and execrable all spring to mind - but it doesn't matter, the sentiment is the same." I've been using Windows 8 Release Preview on both my ZenBook and my regular desktop since its release, and here's my short review: "I like it." Issues a-plenty, but for what is essentially a 1.0 release - not bad. It's a hell of a lot better than other releases which were similar in scope (Mac OS X 10.0, KDE 4.0).

Windows 8 on non touchscreen devices could be a great thing if Microsoft would allow it. Metro on a touchscreen device is pretty awesome (speaking from personal experience).
Metro on Windows 8 on a desktop PC, however, feels like an abomination. I suppose I'll get used to it so I can support customers with new PCs but I'll never use it for any mission critical work. I think I'll be content to let it live in a virtual machine.

If "Pacific Rim" is not your cup of tea, there are several alternatives this weekend for the serious cineaste.
The Los Angeles County Museum of Art's Hitchcock 9 series, featuring newly restored silent movies from the Master of Suspense, concludes this weekend. Hitch's feature directorial debut, 1926's "The Pleasure Garden," screens Friday at the Bing Theater, along with 1927's "Easy Virtue." Rounding out the festival Saturday is a rare comedy, 1928's "The Farmer's Wife," followed by 1929's thriller "Blackmail." Robert Israel will provide live accompaniment with each screening.
UCLA Film & Television Archive kicks off its "The Films of Paul Schrader" retrospective Friday at the Billy Wilder Theater with the writer-director's 1980 drama "American Gigolo," starring Richard Gere and featuring Blondie's "Call Me" theme song, and his 1992 drama "Light Sleeper," with Willem Dafoe and Susan Sarandon.
Other films in the festival include 1979's "Hardcore," 1988's "Patty Hearst," 1997's "Affliction," for which James Coburn won the supporting actor Oscar, 1978's "Blue Collar," with Richard Pryor, and 1990's "The Comfort of Strangers," penned by Harold Pinter.
Schrader will appear twice at the festival: on Aug. 4 for his 1985 biopic "Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters," and on Aug. 5 for "The Canyons," his new noir thriller penned by Bret Easton Ellis, which stars Lindsay Lohan.
Also beginning Friday at the Cinefamily at the Silent Movie Theatre is a six-day engagement of a new 35-millimeter print -- struck from a restoration negative in Rome -- of Michelangelo Antonioni's landmark 1960 drama "L'Avventura."
The complex, existential film has polarized audiences over the decades. In fact, the film was jeered at the Cannes Film Festival at its first screening, causing Antonioni and his leading lady, Monica Vitti, to flee the theater. But it was cheered during its second screening and won the Grand Jury Prize for "a new movie language and the beauty of its images."

TUSCALOOSA, AL (WBRC) - Most Alabama fans are accustomed to seeing Barrett Jones on the football field. The senior center and 2011 Outland Trophy winner is a big part of the Crimson Tide's offensive line.
"As a football player," said head coach Nick Saban. "I don't know that I've been around another guy who can play every position on the offensive line and do it efficiently, effectively and win awards. Then still be as good a person as humble a person. Not very many people like him he's just special."
But, there's another side to the 6'5 300-pound student-athlete.
"Barrett has always had a thing about little kids," said Barrett's father, Rex Jones. "Even when he was growing up our neighbors watched the way he interacted with kids, which was fun for me because he's really just a big kid inside."
Not only has Barrett been able to make a deep impact on his community, but also his little brother, Harrison, a sophomore tight end for the Tide.
"He's done things the right way," Harrison said. "I want to model my life like that. That's something I can look at and say to myself that's where I want to go as well."
Barrett's already received All-American recognition, a pair of national championship rings and been named to the All-State AFCA Good Works team, but he still has another challenging obstacle to conquer that can provide him with an even bigger opportunity to reach people.
"He does have a goal to want to play in the NFL," Rex said "I told him if you never play another down of football it won't bother me or your mother or anyone else because we love you for who you are and not because you play football. Where he gets drafted will be another chapter in his life for him to really be able to go and start anther identity of who he is and be able to share with other people in a new area."
Barrett's faced this kind of adversity before, so he's not afraid of the challenges that will come his way.
"Lifes always going to knock you down," Barrett advised the students at Crossing Points. "But how are you going to pick yourself back up? You got two choices of how to react number one you can let the adversity beat you or number two you can stand strong and face the adversity head on and become a better person from it."

Sunsets are so cool. Great photos guys.
This is one in Lake Te Anau, New Zealand.
AND ANother at the Twelve Apostles, in the south coast of Australia. I got these two when i went down under for some six months. Unfortunatlely, i wasn't much of a photographer then, and had only a horrible little P&S--apart from my trusty Olympus S. This was by the P&S--an Olympus C1Z (yes, it's that old)

Reason: oops--nearly forgot the picture
Three years ago, when i took these pictures, i used to be a great one for sunsets--they were the only things i took. ultimately, i moved on to other things, (spiders and people), and frankly, sunsets begin to leave me cold.
Shot with FZ15 from the deck of another boat, handheld at 1/15 second, ~50mm equivalent focal length, f2.8 (manual exposure)

My small contribution taken yesterday from my home:
One I took a couple of days ago ... Canon G5, 1/500s, f4.0, ISO 50.
Comments appreciated
I keep littering photos from my Point Reyes trip all over this forum. Anyway, here are some sunset shots (the better ones I got). The second one shows some lens flare, but it makes for an interesting shot anyway. I feel the flare actually adds a bit to the photo (I have a similar shot without it too).
The shots are off the top of Mt. Vision near Inverness, CA. I shot them with my FZ15. They were shot in point and shoot mode but I set the EV to -2/3 and I used spot metering to get the exposure just the way I wanted. I get lazy with the manual settings although ideally I should probably just use the smallest aperture size and go from there.
Anyway Enjoy... thanks for any comments or feedback too.
Here in sweden a day ago.
The second one is taken some, 2, 3 minutes after the first one. Both are shot throu a window/glass... and the first is in a horizontal line, the trees are on a kind of hilll, but it is just a slight bit crooked, and the second one too, if you look at the flag-pole.

|STIS Instrument Handbook for Cycle 26
STIS offers the capability to perform spectroscopic observations with occulting bars located in the long slits, and imaging observations with occulting bars in the coronagraphic mask 50CORON. Coronagraphic imaging is described in detail in Section 12.11.The 52X0.2F1 aperture is the same physical slit as 52X0.2 with the target centered on the smaller of the two occulting bars (i.e., 0.5 arcseconds), instead of at the center of the 52X0.2 long slit. When this aperture is specified the slit wheel is rotated slightly to bring the bar into the center of the detector's field of view. This results in a tilt of 1.30o with respect to AXIS2 (i.e., the spatial axis perpendicular to the dispersion). Also, the full 52 arcseconds length of the long-slit field of view is decreased by about 20% for CCD spectroscopy.Figure 12.5: A cartoon illustrating the 1.30° tilt of the 52X0.2F1 apertureThis occulting bar is well suited to scientific programs conducting spectroscopy of faint extended material around a bright central source. Typical examples of such a program include QSO host galaxies, dynamics of jets in young stellar objects, and spectroscopy of resolved binaries. Observers performing barred spectroscopy should be sure to consult Section 13.7.3. Spectroscopic observations with the 0.5 arcsecond occulting bar are limited to first-order spectroscopic modes.Aperture 52X0.2F1 refers to the occulting bar itself, while 52X0.2F1-R represents a reference position offset from the bar. The reference aperture was designed to allow the observer to peakup on the target prior to moving it behind the occulting bar. But because peakups are not recommended for apertures larger than 0.1 arcsecond in width, the 52X0.2F1-R is no longer used. The occulting bar is even wider (0.5 arcsecond), so a simple ACQ exposure should suffice to center the target in the 52X0.2F1 aperture.Table 12.5 below shows the complete set of aperture names and their application for the 0.5 arcsecond fiducial bar on the 52x0.2 slit. An example of an acquisition into the 52X0.2F1 aperture is provided in Chapter 8.Table 12.5: Aperture Names and Applications on 52X0.2 Slit
Slit (width=0.″2, length=52″) Slit (width=0.″2, length=52″).
Slit (width=0.″2, length=52″).
Reference point off-fiducial
There are two important ramifications you should be aware of when using the 52X0.2F1 aperture: (1) ORIENT specification and (2) fringing correction.The ORIENT special requirement parameter is a specified position angle of the orientation reference vector U3, which is offset by 45o from the STIS detector spatial axis (AXIS2), in the direction North through East. Given a position angle on the sky of θ and taking into account the additional 1.30o offset for the 52X0.2F1 aperture (see Figure 12.5):ORIENT = θ + 46.30o or θ + 226.30oFor example, if we want to place the STIS 52X0.2F1 aperture along the jet of M87 (the example in Figure 11.10 for a standard slit), we would do the following. Given a position angle of 110o on the sky:ORIENT = 110o + 46.30o = 156.3oORIENT = 110o + 226.30o = 336.3oThe STIS CCD shows fringing for wavelengths longward of 7000 Angstroms with the G750L and G750M gratings, limiting the signal-to-noise that can be obtained in these modes. The fringing is caused by interference of multiple reflections between the two surfaces of the CCD. (See Chapter 7 for details.) The recommended way to correct for fringing is by using contemporaneous fringe flats in conjunction with your science observations. Contemporaneous flat-field exposures need to be budgeted in the Phase I time request and specified more fully during the Phase II proposal generation process with APT. Section 13.11.2, entitled "Target_Name=CCDFLAT", of the HST Phase II instructions provides a description of the parameter settings necessary to obtain contemporaneous flat-field exposures. It is the observer's responsibility to include contemporaneous flat fields in their Phase II proposals.For spectra of point sources, contemporaneous fringe flats are normally taken using a short slit which is concentric with the long slit used for the science exposures. When point source fringe flats are taken at or near a standard aperture position near the center of the detector, the best alignment between science image and fringe flat will usually be for fringe flats taken using the 0.3X0.09 aperture. In the special case of the 52X0.2F1 aperture, however, we recommend obtaining long slit fringe flats to fully sample the PSF, since the spatial coverage of the short slit is only a few CCD pixels larger than that of the occulting bar of the 52X0.2F1 slit. A short slit fringe flat does give a somewhat better fringe correction for point sources than a long slit fringe flat. Consequently, if you are also taking an unocculted image of your star with the 52X0.2 aperture, we recommend obtaining a short slit flat as well as a long slit flat to rectify that image.Optimization of the instrument configuration for the acquisition of fringe flats, the subsequent data reduction, and fringing analysis are described in more detail in a series of STIS Instrument Science Reports and in the STIS Data Handbook. STIS ISR 1997-15 (Revision A) provides a general overview of fringing. STIS ISR 1997-16 discusses fringing in spectra of extended sources. STIS ISR 1998-19 (Revision A) discusses fringing associated with point sources, fringing analysis, and details related to the 52X0.2F1 aperture. STIS ISR 1998-29 provides a detailed description of the STIS tasks (normspflat, mkfringeflat, defringe, and prepspec) in the stsdas.hst_calib.stis package that use contemporaneous flat-field images to remove infrared (IR) fringing from STIS G750L and G750M spectra. Section 3.5.5 of the STIS Data Handbook provides guidance and updates to the instructions for removing near-infrared (NIR) fringing presented in STIS ISR 1998-29.

The Children's Theatre of La Junta, under the direction of Kelly Jo Smith, now in its 14th year, has readied the stage for this summer's production "Tarzan." The musical adventure opens July 10 and runs through the 13th.
The Children's Theatre of La Junta, under the direction of Kelly Jo Smith, now in its 14th year, has readied the stage for this summer's production "Tarzan." The stagecraft class at La Junta High School started the set, to be completed by the hard work of the cast on many afternoons this summer. Kiel Hierding is the stage technician for the fifth summer. "I'm really familiar with this stage," he commented.
Shipwrecked off the coast of Africa, the young son of an English couple is raised by a tribe of gorillas to manhood, when a pretty English naturalist crosses his path and teaches him about love and civilized ways. Phil Collins expands his Oscar-winning song ("You'll Be in My Heart") from Disney's cartoon feature film into a full Broadway score.
"Tarzan: The Musical" is based on the Disney film of the same name and the story by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The songs are written by Phil Collins with a book by David Henry Hwang. Raised by a tribe of gorillas, the young boy strives for acceptance by his ape father while grappling with his uniqueness. Clay Havens, playing Young Terk, teaches Jeremiah Barber, playing Young Tarzan, the art of being an ape and in that lesson a friendship is created. When a human expedition enters their territory, Tarzan (Henry Kelley) - now a man - encounters strangers (Abby Wallner playing Jane) like himself for the first time.
The children playing apes are happy with their parts. Ana Matthews, one of the apes, said, "You get to be kinda goofy and I like the goofy side." Allyson Haugen said, "I like the fun tricks we get to do." Peyton, one of the smaller apes, likes the dances best. Sadie likes "how you get a do stuff and sing and do lots of movements — do it for your friends and family." Weston likes being an ape because he gets to spend a lot of time with his friends and family. "Nevaeh is my cousin," said Weston. One of the larger apes, Nariah, said, "What I like most is being on stage and watching the audience enjoy the show." Hannah likes the costumes. "They're so poofy it makes it so fun to dance."
The ape costumes were made by Vicky Wallner. Hannah said Wallner ordered the T-shirts and tights, and then cut them and added yarn and other stuff. The wigs are spectacular, with their fuzzy all-over curls, complemented by the face makeup. Hannah's favorite number is "Trashing the Camp." Wallner did the apes and Jane's costume. The rest of the costumes were done by Jenny Mathews. The plants and flowers of the jungle are spectacular.
Talking with the leads of the cast, the reporter discovered that Jacob Dittburner has never played a bad guy before. "I'm out to kidnap all the apes and Tarzan. It's looking at things from a different viewpoint." Janika Grimlund likes her part as Kala, Tarzan's ape-mother. "She is so emotional: she can be happy, angry, sad, very sad." Henry Kelley, who plays Tarzan, said that his favorite part of the play is his relationship with his ape mother.
"You will like the songs," said Abby Wallner, who plays Jane. "They are songs people know. My favorite one is one that I hardly sing at all in the play. It is 'Strangers Like Me.' I sang it even before I knew we were doing 'Tarzan.' Kelley likes "Everything that I Am" because it covers the entire transformation where he realizes he's different from the apes. This play ends as Jane decides to stay in the jungle, because she has what she wants there. "It's about two people finding what they want and need."
Seth Nixon plays Professor Porter, Jane's father, who is an academic on an expedition to find out whether gorillas are social beings. He likes his part because he has some funny lines, too. Travis Lopkoff enjoys being the father image as the head of the ape tribe. Levi plays the older version of Tarzan's best friend as a child. He likes his part because he gets to enter the stage from all different places and says things with dry humor that get laughs.
The musical adventure opens July 10 and runs through the 13th. Curtain time is 7 p.m. Tickets are $8; call the box office at 384-5111 to reserve a ticket today.

Okay I just recently got a flawless critter stone in a bag and realized.. what am I going to use it on? Most critters I have that I like are already blue but there have been some I've been toying with the idea of using on but then I realized..are they going to be good in battle even if I like them. So, I have come to the forums again for help. I am thinking of possibly using it on these critters below:
Bandicoon (breed 5)
Bandicoon Kit (breed 5)
Masked Tanuki (breed 10)
Masked Tanuki Pup (breed 11)
Shy Bandicoon (breed 5)
Mulgore Hatchling
Mr. Wiggles
Winter Reindeer
Perky Pug
Imperial Silkworm
Ya, that's quite a list and I'm still not sure. Any and all help will be much appreciated. I heard that bunnies are pretty good but how good are they against higher/pandaria tamers? Looking for a critter to fill my battleslot. Thank you again!

[Verse 1: Carl Sherron]
I heard you robbed a couple niggas down on forty-deuce
You and your crew
You only fifteen, what the fuck you know about twenty-two's?
Slow down before you get your melon split or knocked by jake's
Cause nowadays, niggas act tough but be on some telling shit
I learned the hard way, ninth grade I use to play the raw way
Till I was tested, pulled out a weapon and caught that court case
Mom stressing, taking off work, rushing to court dates
While pops angry, telling me Lico, go get your shit straight
Believe me fam', I know G's
I was deep as a Spartan with my co-deez
If you about that, do it fadoli
Use your minds eye, think for a second before you flex your desert
Respect is something that's earned, I hope you take head to this message
It's ill in the boogie down
Some niggas came through looking for you hoodie down
Mobbing six deep, gripping a four pound
You think you thugged out, but the way I see it you bugged out
Could barely stand up straight, angel dust got you strung out
Wow, you got the juice now
[Verse 2: Wati Heru]
Underneath the shadows of the two train, we hop turnstiles
The barrel spin like turn tables when the parties turned out
In return we turn the wrist a turning point eternally
The burner twist determine if he returns from eternity
Don't be concerned with this, we firm with this like Escobar and Fox
Never spent a term on D block but yet a nigga picking locks
We shoulda known better like case after we saw the cops
Still no strangers stand by my spot
They exit or they're getting ox'd
By any God given chance I turn myself in
My attorney's in a fraternity, he'll turn that twenty-five into ten
I'll do that bid, get big, turn twenty-five into ten
Same cycle, stretch turn twenty-five outta' ten
So while they turning in they grave, I'm still collecting this yen
Same corner, thirty-eight special in the side of the Timb's
And if the jake turn the curb, I'm putting five into them
So now the table turn, El Ragga still survives in the end
Cause if I turn over the juice, another saga begins
[Outro: Wati Heru]
Said I was whylin' out, I got the juice now
Look who's whylin' now, you got the juice now
[Outro 2: Bishop]
What's the matter Raheem? Nothing to say?
That's cause you know I'm right
In your heart you know I'm right
Yo big man, if you want respect you gotta earn it
You damn right
You gotta be ready to go down, stand up, and die for that shit like Blizzard did
If you want some juice
Blizzard? Blizzard ain't sticking up to nothing now
That's cause we wasn't there to back him up
If we was there-

New Yorkers Carl Sherron and Wati Heru stake their claim to the throne, paying tribute to the film Juice with a verse apiece over a track that would sound at home in the movie itself. The influence of New Yorkers such as Kool G Rap is evident in everything from the verses to the original production."

|OpenBSD General Other questions regarding OpenBSD which do not fit in any of the categories below.
|Thread Tools
|Display Modes
Need help urgently !!!
The level of principle, I need to know what kind of topology i need to use
for my alix board.
I mean I bought a board called ALIX 6E1 how has two ports (ETHERNET (vr0 vr1.
I want to set the board to use as a router.
I want to know Should I set the vr0 as WAN and set it as dhcpclient who
gets the IP address from the modem or through a wireless network card
form my laptop who is connected to the home router .
In addition the vr1 port as LAN and configure it as dhcp server which will
give an ip address to my laptop behind it.
Do I need to configure NAT between the two ETHERNET port or is there
another way to implement these settings.
I run on the board OPENBSD 4.9 operating system and the laptop I have
I'm trying for a long time to figure out what option to choose to define the
best and fastest.
In addition there is a USB port in the board that I want to connect to
NETSTICK mobile communications.
I mean I also need to set some kind of protocol regulating communication when I'm connecting Through a dsl and i lose comunecation I will pass to the mobile communications.
I would welcome any help given, I'm sorry for my misunderstanding but this how i learn .
You could start by connecting the vr0 port your Alix board to the modem and on then run a dhclient vr0. (on the Alix board)
The vr0 interface then will either get a public IP or a private, non-public IP.
To help you further please post the output of the dhclient vr0 command
You don't need to be a genius to debug a pf.conf firewall ruleset, you just need the guts to run tcpdump
Thanks for the attitude
You mean to run a command of IFCONFIG and see if I get an address on vr0 when I plug it to the modem.
Of course after I set up my vr0 as dhcp client.
Anyway, I've done some settings for the ports but I want to know why you cant i set a static address for each of the ports instead of a dynamic host.
And why do I have to use - NAT instead of bridging or routing .
You can set up vr0 as a dhcp client manually from the command line:
# dhclient vr0
Or create a /etc/hostname.vr0 that only contains:
# ifconfig -A
We need this information to assist you further
You don't need to be a genius to debug a pf.conf firewall ruleset, you just need the guts to run tcpdump
Thanks for your help
This is what I got after I ran the command ifconfig-a .

Your vr1 NIC is not connected to a network.
You have syntax errors in sysctl.conf, rc.conf, and dhclient.conf.
The first two can only be used for variable assignment statements, the third has it's own syntax.
thanks !!!
Do you have a suggestion how I can solve these problems.(syntax errors in sysctl.conf, rc.conf, and dhclient.conf).

Please, please, please... place the contents of these files inside [code] and [/code] tags -- when pasted without them, we cannot see any "line wrap" errors. Please look at your ifconfig post above, where ocicat repaired what you'd posted, in order to make it readable for us.
Your error in sysctl.conf is the first line:
net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 1=Permit forwarding (routing) of IPv4 packets
I cannot see your error(s) in rc.conf because you are only showing the first page of a larger file. vi(1) is NOT the tool to use to copy and paste the entire contents of a file here. The error messages point to the line numbers, wlm2. Please use them to find your error(s).
The error in dhclient.conf is, as the error message said, in line #3 of the file. This line should be commented, it is NOT.
DHCP Client Configuration
I fixed all the mistakes,many, many thanks indeed you do not know how you helped me.
Say you read the first correspondence I need help.
I want to know what I do worng with the settings of vr1.
I need to set vr1 port as LAN and configure it as dhcp server which will
give an ip address to my laptop behind it.
Do I need to configure NAT between the two ETHERNET port or is there
another way to implement these settings.
I run on the board OPENBSD 4.9 operating system and the laptop I have
I'm trying for a long time to figure out what option to choose to define the
best and fastest.
In addition there is a USB port in the board that I want to connect to
NETSTICK mobile communications.
I mean I also need to set some kind of protocol regulating communication when I'm connecting Through a dsl and i lose comunecation I will pass to the mobile communications.
[Router with DHCP server]--{wireless}--[Laptop]--{wired to vr0}--[ALIX6E1 with DHCP client]
{Internet} -- [ALIX acting as your router]--[Laptop]
It is possible that the address provided by your ISP's equipment is not an Internet address. Addresses in the RFC 1918 block are for private networks, and are not usable on the Internet without translation. Network Address Translation (NAT) is required for any device that does not have its own address on the internet. Using my second picture, if the ALIX box's outer network is on the Internet, then NAT is required for the inner network. If the ALIX box's outer network is a private network, NAT is not required.
You might find it helpful to communicate in your native language, rather than English. Perhaps this list from www.openbsd.org/mail.html will help.
The first thing one more time Thanks for your help.
The second thing I'm sorry for my ignorance but if you can help me it would be useful.
I want to know one thing, you wrote me that I need to configure the board as a router that is according to FAQ 6.2.7, according to the message I sent you i removed the ladders to allow (net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 ), Is there anything else I should do?
Secondly how I configure vr1 as dhcp server.
For example here is dhcpd.conf print screen.
vi /etc/dhcpd.conf #option domain-name "ecbox.com"; n domain-name "ecbox.com"; option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.3, 192.168.1.5; subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { option routers 192.168.1.1; range 192.168.1.32 192.168.1.127;
I wrote:
Here is an example, where the ISP's equipment is presenting a "real" Internet address, and NAT is used to provide a private (RFC 1918) inner network:
{Internet} a.b.c.d -- [ALIX] -- 192.168.1.1/24 -- [Laptop]
Here is an example, where the ISP's equipment is presenting a private network to you -- or, if you decide to continue to use your DSL router you have in place right now, without changing how it is configured, whether ISP provided or not:
{Internet} [ISP's or your own NAT device] -- 192.168.1/24 -- [ALIX] -- 10.1.1/24 -- [Laptop]
First, thank you for wrapping text you copy/paste with code tags. I appreciate it.
Second, please stop using vi to copy/paste. As I stated earlier, it is unclear when you use it what the complete contents of any file actually are.
You have another bad line here, whether you did this via another bad edit, or whether you have some sort of typo in your post, I cannot tell. Note what I have highlighted in red.
n domain-name "ecbox.com";
thanks !
My ALIX box's outer network is a private network .
Secondly what do you recommend using for routing between two port
The third thing I still do not see how I implement dhcp server on vr1, of
course I want that vr1 assigns an address to my laptop.
Can I just give a static address to the network card on my laptop, and a
static address to vr1 port Without need to use dhcp server configuration.
Here's some additional assistance, wlm2.
If you would like to see the diagnostic output from dhcpd, start with the dhcpd(8) man page. There, you will find the -d option:
-d Force dhcpd to log to stderr. This can be useful for debugging, and also at sites where a complete log of all dhcp activity must be kept, but syslogd(8) is not reliable or otherwise cannot be used. Normally, dhcpd will log all output using the syslog(3) function with the log facility set to LOG_DAEMON.
If you want the ALIX to be a router, you must connect it to two or more separate networks. The only connection between those two networks is ... the ALIX.
I will repeat what I think I know, from your earlier threads. It is unclear to me if this is the configuration, because English is not your native language, and you have neither confirmed nor corrected my earlier ASCII "drawings".
Is anything I believe wrong? If so, please correct me.
Since words are difficult, please post an ASCII diagram, like the ones I have posted. Show how things are connected now, and, how you want them connected in the future.
Because ....
If you want the ALIX system to act as some sort of firewall, it must sit between the Internet and the system you wish protected ... your laptop. If what I believe is correct, it is not (yet) doing so.
It appears to me that you need to start by clearly stating what it is you want to accomplish. Then, perhaps we can help you build a network designed to provide that.
At the moment, it looks to me like you are having trouble with basic concepts, because your physical network layout does not appear to provide any value. If what I believe is correct. I still do not know.
Okay sorry that I didnt sent the topology of the network before.
HTML Code:
Cable Modem => linksys wrt610n => alix6e1 board (vr0) . alix6e1 board (vr1) => dell xps studio (network card) .
I connect with a network cable to port vr1 and Then I connect with the same
cable to my laptop network card .

ROCHESTER — The Franklin Gallery, 60 Wakefield St., , will feature an exhibit called Alzheimer Forgets — multimedia abstracts by Springvale, Maine artist Pamala Crabb, for the month of October during regular business hours.
Through the highly emotional artworks in this exhibit, rich in color, texture and mood, Ms. Crabb has found an imaginative, caring way to explore with great sensitivity the depth of her feelings about her father's protracted battle with Alzheimer's disease — a battle with which a disturbing number of people whose relatives have the disease are all too familiar.
She was inspired to mount this exhibit by her own intensely personal feelings about her father's illness — what it must be like for anyone to slowly lose oneself to Alzheimer's disease. "Today my father did not recognize me," she wrote after an especially poignant encounter with her father. "I felt invisible; all that connected me with my dad was gone."
Pamala Crabb has had the good fortune to exhibit her multimedia works, including her ever more sophisticated works in encaustic — in a wide variety of galleries and other venues over nearly twenty years as a working artist.
She has exhibited several times at the Galleria Municiple in LaMaddalena Italy; at venues in Provincetown and Lawrence, MA; at Harford Community College in Hartford, CT; at the 12 Gallery in Boston; and in many Seacoast NH/Southern ME galleries including a solo show at the Ethel M. Weymouth Gallery in Wells, Hartwood College and River Tree Arts in Kennebunk, The Portsmouth Public Library, the Saco, Maine Art Museum and the Kittery Art Association.
She has taken an impressive array of classes and workshops with well-known New England artists including Kim Bernard (encaustics), Cari Hernandez (encaustics and fiber), David Clark (monoprints) and Miles Conrad (THREE-D sculpture). In 2009 she drew an Honorable Mention for her works in the Annual Awards Show of the Sanford/Springvale Art Association.
To learn more about Pamala Crabb and her art, visit www.pamalacrabb.com.
The Franklin Gallery and Ben Franklin Crafts are open Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. To learn more about Pamala Crabb's Alzheimer Forgets and future Franklin Gallery exhibits, write to Ross, the Franklin Gallery manager, at artsmultiplegmail.com.

High winds, heavy rain
A bad storm passed through Christian County (KY) today. We had several hours of high winds and heavy rain. A factory between Hopkinsville and Pembroke was badly damaged (apparently by a tornado), and farmers in the adjacent area reported damage to buildings. Residents of Pembroke and Lacy in Christian County also had storm damage, including a tree that fell on a mobile home.
I heard on the radio that 180 workers were in the TGASK building when it was hit. Seven people were injured badly enough that they went to the hospital, but no one was in serious condition. The wind took off part of the front of the building, ripped off the roof, and blew through the back of the building, according to the radio report. Debris was scattered for a wide area.
Along the highway in front of the plant, half-a-dozen or more wooden electrical poles were snapped in half, and several steel poles were bent double. Electrical wires were on the ground, causing power outages in the Pembroke area.
I was at work while all this was taking place. Except for the weather, it was a very boring morning because we had almost no customers.
Squall after squall rolled over us. At one point, big waves of water were scooting across the parking lot like whitecaps on a lake. The electricity went out for about a minute, then flickered several more times. I suppose that was when the tornado hit TGASK.
When Dennis got home from work, he called to tell me that everything at our house was OK. No big tree limbs had fallen, our animals were all safe, and the electricity was still working. That was good news.

Lauren McCall and Debby Potts
Since March of 2000 we have been offering our TTouch and Animal Communication services to people and their animals all over the world.
Every person and animal we work with is treated with the greatest care and respect. We understand the connection between people and their animals and strive to enhance that relationship while helping each to be the best they can be. Whether it is overcoming a problem, improving health, enhancing performance or improving communication, we work in a positive, non-judgmental way to help each individual reach their goals.
Working with TTouch and/or animal communication can bring rewards beyond what you might imagine, both for you and your animals. To see what other people have to say about our work, please visit our Testimonial page.
To support the health and well-being of animals and people through better understanding, communication and proven effective techniques.
In just 15 years, we have:
Lauren McCall
Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah, The Tokyo Veterinary University, many vet clinics, 6 different pet schools in Japan, the Portland Community College Veterinary Technology students, Project Pooch, the Portland Veterinary Medical Association, Dove Lewis Emergency Animal Hospital, the Oregon Humane Society, the Oregon Zoo, the Cat Adoption Team, the national headquarters for the House Rabbit Society in California, Cedar Hill Animal Sanctuary, Canine Good Citizen organization of Japan, various dog clubs and schools in the US and Japan, the California-based non-profit, Assisi International Animal Institute and lectured at the Association of Pet Dog Trainers Conferences.
Debby Potts
One day in early 2000, we were sitting over a plate of French fries and a glass of cider, talking about life and pondering the future. Debby had been teaching TTEAM and TTouch for 16 years and wished there was something she could do to add more life to her business. Lauren had become a TTouch practitioner after a 21 year career in international marketing. She was ready to move on from her job as Executive Director of the TTouch organization, and was looking to launch her business with animals. Working together seemed like an excellent way to blend our complimentary talents. Shortly after that, The Integrated Animal was created.
By the way, many people have complimented us on the name "The Integrated Animal." Lauren came up with that on a flight from Santa Fe to Portland while doodling on a cocktail napkin!

text: Magical up-tempo track that is based on a lush authentic percussion riff combined with female vocal samples and atmospheric keyboards. This instrumental composition creates an outstanding vivid imago of an ancient pilgrim. Or this could be celestial prince somewhere out of the blue… It will perfectly fit any media, especially news and prognosis programmes and as a background music it will compliment any soft installation.

Why GM should go all out with hot spots

If General Motors wants to take the industry lead in installing Internet hot spots in its vehicles in coming years, then it should go all out.
GM needs to make the cable industry uncomfortable by making these hot spots robust enough to become householdwide connections while the vehicles are parked in a garage. That means engineering the hot spots to stay on when a vehicle is off.
As my colleague Mike Colias reported here on Feb. 25, there seems to be a lot of internal discussion about this at GM.
Auto dealers must be salivating at such a sales tool. Imagine telling potential buyers they can replace their household Internet connection simply by driving the vehicle home. And having a hot spot anywhere they drive? There is some real potential here. If nothing else, having a hot spot in the vehicle would be a good backup for those of us who often work at home.
Let's be clear: The hot spot should first meet all the needs of a driver and passengers -- particularly passengers who want to connect a laptop, smartphones or tablets to the Internet.
Safety advocates will argue that a hot spot provides another potential distraction for drivers. But these distractions already exist and must be addressed by laws and a driver's common sense.
As for replacing a home Internet connection, it wouldn't work for everyone -- especially for a family with multiple Internet users and multiple drivers. And GM engineers would have to find a power source for the hot spot while the vehicle is off. Maybe that means a dedicated small battery or even a power cord adapter that could be plugged into a garage outlet.
Ultimately, GM has an opportunity here to provide a technology perk for motorists that transcends the driving experience. Let's see where it goes with this idea.

My neighbors are in their 80s. I plan to clean their driveway as well.
Do you guys power the whole house when switching to a gas generator?
Any sort of special connections to do so?
You really should not wire those things straight into you box. That feeds the grid then when linemen are working to restore power they get injured by lines that should be dead. You should use a transfer box. And yes I am an electrician
