Athens, OH 19 March 2015 –
When we got back from spring break, my Sustainable Construction class got assigned a project that is going to extend until the end of the semester. Our problem statement is to work with Ohio University to see what it would take to get various buildings around campus to a LEED Silver standard. LEED is the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. LEED is one of the leading green building standards used throughout the country and parts of the world.
The group I am working with has been assigned Siegfred Hall, it is currently used as the Arts building. During this past week we have been taking multiple tours of the building to understand different parts of the energy use, transportation, environmental, and a few other components. Our group is tasked to see what it would take to in order to obtain the LEED Silver Certification.
LEED takes into account six major aspects:
- location and transportation
- sustainable sites
- water efficiency
- energy and atmosphere
- materials and resources
- indoor environmental quality
These six categories have different numbers of points that you can achieve and total up to 110 points for the highest certification of Platinum. For our project we have to reach a minimum of a Silver certification which is between 50 to 59 points. Our professor is challenging us not to just stop there at silver but to really see what it would take to get an even higher certification of Gold or Platinum.
Our professor also surprised us with the fact that once our projects are complete our report with be shared with the university along with a presentation to the sustainability department. They will be able to use our project as a starting point when it is time for a major renovation.

We study the pathophysiology of the neuropathic pain syndromes that occur when peripheral nerves are damaged by trauma, disease, or toxins and explore potential new analgesics for their treatment. We have a particular interest in the painful peripheral neuropathy that is the dose-limiting side-effect of many cancer chemotherapeutics. We employ various methodologies, including behavioral pharmacology, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, electrophysiology, and mitochondrial function assays (respirometry and ATP production).

The Year of the Armadillo
Keeping in tradition of my annual Big Squeeze blog post, I'd like to start this year's recap by declaring 2014 the Year of the Armadillo. When Austin design firm Frank+Victor revamped our Big Squeeze logo to include the armadill-accordion image, my coworker Michelle mentioned that soon after, many other music programs and festivals were using the armadillo on promotional materials.
Nelson Joseph Thompson Sr. Second Line Funeral New Orleans
This post is long overdue, but it's important that I get something down while the events are still somewhat fresh in my mind. I try to travel to New Orleans at least once a year, both for the pure fun and enjoyment the city provides, but also to stay in touch with people and communities I have worked with over the years.
Big Squeeze Champs— Aaron, Garrett & Randall
All nine Big Squeeze contestants are winners.
Congratulations to Big Squeeze Champs:
Aaron Daniel Salinas of San Antonio, Conjunto
Garrett Neubauer, of Altair, Polka
Randall Jackson, Dallas, Zydeco
Big Squeeze Day is here!
Saturday, April 26 is officially Big Squeeze Day in Austin by city proclamation.
It kicked off the 8th Annual Big Squeeze Contest and Accordion Contest. The musicians are warming up for their sets on the Bullock Museum Plaza.
Watch out Bullock Museum— It's Big Squeeze time again!
On Saturday, April 26, the plaza in front of the Bullock Texas State History Museum will resemble a high school battle of the bands. Instead of marching bands, however, the Big Squeeze Accordion contest will greet unsuspecting visitors.
Tourists will have to weave around makeshift folding chair camps set up by families and fans, there to cheer their hometown Conjunto, zydeco or polka hero or heroine.
Resurrecting Love - an African-American burial ground
This weekend I had the privilege to participate in a special project near Marshall, Texas - the effort to maintain an old slave and African-American burial ground, Love Cemetery. Brought to national attention through a book and an ongoing documentary by Texan, now California-based, China Galland, the the "keepers of Love" continue to struggle to gain access to the grounds for visits and upkeep.
Conjunto Education in South Texas Schools
If you've been supporting and/or following Texas Folklife for the last several years, you've probably heard the name Juan Longoria, Jr.
It's a wrap—Thank you!
The more than $4,600 dollars you donated will help Texas Folklife continue to preserve Texas' rich heritage.
With $4,600 dollars we can fund:
-Two apprenticeships with master folk artists or
-A semester of radio story telling instruction for 30 high school students or
Officially less than an hour left!
"Awesome! That would be helpful," says Program and Events Manager Sara Rucker of Texas Folklife's staff. She's fielding last minute calls from friends asking about last minute contributions to help reach today's fundraising goal of $6,000 through Amplify Austin's 24-hour giving marathon.

Nobody could have predicted that 'religious liberty' accommodations would lead to Hobby Lobby
Due to the entirely predictable turmoil in Iraq, we are now cursed with Iraq Debacle cheerleaders "explaining" how it was all President Obama's fault. In a similar vein of chutzpah, E.J.Dionne has deccided that the Hobby Lobby decision was also President Obama's fault:
It's unfortunate that the Obama administration's initial, parsimonious exemption for religious groups helped ignite the firestorm that led to Hobby Lobby. It might consider this lesson as it moves, rightly, to issue an executive order to ban discrimination against LGBT people by government contractors. I've long believed that anti-gay behavior is both illiberal and, if I may, un-Christian.
Oh really? It was the Obama Administration's fault that its overly generous "accommodation" in violation of the Establishment Clause that led to Hobby Lobby? It was Obamas fault that his compromise was rejected out of hand by the Manichean forces intent on eliminating women's privacy rights? What a load of crap. Indeed, E.J. Dionne has been full of it from Day 1 on this. In my post, Dionne Breaks Faith With Progressive Values, I predicted that the accommodation Dionne argued for would absolutely lead to Hobby Lobby:

:> applications for memory, it will push writes out to swap. So it only uses :> as much memory/swap space as what you put in swap. : :as far as i understood the original poster, he wants two things: : :a) he (and me too) wants a huge buffer cache per filesystem, that has the :criterias, that kip macy illustrates for tmpfs. : :i guess it is important for this scheme to have (one buffer cache) :filesystem, because you may treat /usr differently than :/my_big_fat_static_data_partition, but i am not sure if with more than one :cache overhead is an issue. : :b) he wants a possibility to retain a specific file in the cache. :this can be generalized to the idea, that each file has different :buffer-cache priority. : :this surely would be nice i fear, it would be, but overhead comes into play :again. : :apart from this, i like this approach very much. : :~ibotty Well, the existing buffer and path caches are not really well suited to 'locking' certain elements into ram. They really wants a 'backing store' to play with. But, that said, it will basically attempt to cache as much as it can in memory. The two primary limitations which tends to cause cache flushes is kern.maxvnodes, because in order to flush a vnode the underlying data cached with that vnode will also be flushed even if memory is available to hold it, and limitations with the buffer cache. I believe we could implement a general mechanism to turn off delayed-writes, write-behind, and other elements on a per-filesystem basis, and basically revert the associated data from dirty buffer cache entries to dirty VM pages and then allow them to be paged out on demand by the VM paging system. This removes the buffer cache limitations and leaves us only with the vnode limitations. The MFS filesystem comes fairly close to doing this already since its backing store is simply the memory associated with a process, but it has the disadvantage of causing data to be stored in memory twice (once in the VM / buffer cache, once in the MFS's procs memory space). Despite the duplication of data, the fact that MFS filesystems do not automaticaly flush data to a physical storage device has proven to be a huge performance advantage over the years. So, in short, we already have the pieces, we just have to get them to fit together in a reasonable way. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

More than 600 parents, students and teachers came to the school Wednesday night hoping for a Christmas miracle, for the Bishop to reverse his decision and keep the school open.
Hundreds of people lit candles, sang and prayed outside St. Ignatius Loyola School in Hicksville.
The elementary school is one of six slated to be closed down at the end of the school year.
"We're a unified community and we'll do everything we can to make sure the school is open for another 104 years," said Dianne Ryan, a parent.
"I think we can really make a difference and we will fight and we will win," said Bridget Maloney, a student.
More than 600 parents and students packed the school cafeteria for a standing room-only meeting.
Neither officials from the diocese nor the parish priest would allow Eyewitness News cameras inside.
Students had plenty to say.
They presented a video, pleading with the Bishop to consider their high test scores, their English as a second language curriculum, and their acceptance of students with special needs, as reasons St. Ignatius Loyola should stay open.
"I hope Bishop Murphy sees this and listens to us," said Aliesha Allen, a student.
"It's kind of sad because we're all friends," said Christine Bailey, a 7th Grade student.
A spokesman for the Rockville Center Diocese called the decision to close the school "difficult" and explained: "Current K-8 enrollment is 164 students, which represents a 41 percent decline since the 2000-01 school year."
Parents are formulating a business plan to try to recruit new students and raise more money.

PS, I love glamour: Cecelia's new look
HER book has made it on to the silver screen -- and Cecelia Ahern appears to have picked up a touch of Hollywood glamour along the way.
Ten years since she was a member of pop group Shimma, Cecelia has ditched her dowdy jeans and jumper and opted for vampish red lipstick and tousled blond curls.
Posing in the bath for a shoot with fashion photographer Patrick Bolger for an Italian style magazine, she is currently riding high on the success of the film adaption of 'PS, I Love You'.
And her achievements don't end there. The ABC comedy series she writes, 'Samantha Who?', just won a People's Choice Award.

As bigger the population, as bigger the taxrank. biggest population: taxrank 1, lowest taxrate 2. most population: taxrank 2, 2. lowest taxrate and so on... so, as more planets you have, as higher is the taxrank of your lowest-population-planet. if you have more than ~60 planets you will pay over 90% of your income from the smallest planets as star redistribution tax. So, with gathering more and more planets, your share of the tax will be smaller in relation to your tax-expanses.

Fortune's Bones: The Manumission Requiem
Posted on May 31, 2012
There is a skeleton on display in the Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, Connecticut. It has been in the town for over 200 years. Over time, the bones became the subject of stories and speculation in Waterbury. In 1996 a group of community-based volunteers, working in collaboration with the museum staff, discovered that the bones were those of a slave named Fortune who had been owned by a local doctor. After Fortune's death, the doctor dissected the body, rendered the bones, and assembled the skeleton. A great deal is still not known about Fortune, but it is known that he was baptized, was married, and had four children. He died at about the age of 60, sometime after 1797.
Marilyn Nelson was commissioned by the Mattatuck Museum and received a grant from the Connecticut Commission on the Arts to write a poem in commemoration of Fortune's life. Fortune's Bones: The Manumission Requiem is that poem. Detailed notes and archival materials provide contextual information to enhance the reader's appreciation of the poem.

Expanding your Horizons in the Far East
The Cruisemates Magical Mysticism cruise to the Far East is getting closer and these are just few things I'm looking forward to seeing in Beijing, China.
The culture and architecture is completely different than anything you will find in Europe or the Caribbean.
The Lama Temple with it's treasures of Buddhist art:
The Forbidden City: Home for Centuries to The Chinese Emperor and Royal Family and never seen by the outside world.
Of course: The Great Wall. Erected to stop the Mongols from invading. It's the only man made structure that can be seen from space. Not bad for something built 2000 years ago.
This is just Beijing. We also have Hong Kong, Dalian, Shanghai, Pusan, Nagasaki and Osaka to experience.
My wife, Betty and I have been doing plenty of research and have just about everything planned out. We just want more people to share it with. So if you've ever wanted to see and experience something completely different this is your chance. Join us on the Statendam in March and experience the exotic Far Eastern world in comfort and style but still enjoy the history and culture.
Just click to get all of the information: Betty wants someone to stop me from eating Honey Beetles. LOL
Take care,

UPDATE: A not guilty plea was entered on behalf of Robert Ray Locke this afternoon.
Superior Court Commissioner Patrick Oishi set bail at $500,000 at the request of Prosecuting Attorney Mark Lindquist, who handled Locke's arraignment.
Lindquist called the threats "violent and disturbing."
According to charging papers, Locke posted the threatening comments on the governor's website. One said he wished one of her relatives would be raped and murdered. Another said she should "be burned at the stake like any heretic."
Locke later told investigators he is mad at the Gregoire because in 1999, when she was attorney general, she failed to help him recover some unpaid wages. He also said he was upset because some state benefits he receives are set to be reduced, according to the charging papers.
There was nothing mentioned in the charging documents suggesting Locke had taken any action to follow through on the comments.
Lindquist said outside court that threatening the governor is a bad idea at any time but particularly in light of the assassination attempt on an Arizona congresswoman earlier this month.
"It's something we take very seriously," he said.
Locke apologized to investigators and said he only intended to "give her a piece of my mind," court records show.
Public defender Lisa Contris asked Oishi to release Locke on his own recognizance. He has no criminal record, Contris said.
"There's nothing to indicate he won't appear at his next court date," she said.
Oishi sided with Lindquist. He also ordered Locke to have "no contact, absolutely no contact with the governor, her staff or her family." Oishi also ordered Locke to stay at least 1,000 feet away from the state Capitol and the governor's mansion.
PREVIOUS POST: Washington State Patrol detectives have arrested a Graham-area man for allegedly making a threats against Governor Chris Gregoire over the internet.
The threat arrived at the governor's office about 6:15 a.m. Tuesday, according to a press release from the State Patrol. It took detectives only about six hours to trace the threat and arrest a suspect.
The 51-year-old man was taken into custody at 2:30 p.m. while walking along 200th Street East in Pierce County, the State Patrol said. Detectives had first responded to his home and then began a search of the area. The arrest took place without incident.
He was booked into the Pierce County Jail on one count of making threats against the governor or the governor's family, a class C felony. He is scheduled to appear in Pierce County Superior Court this afternoon.

We seem to agree on Rudd as well, Mark, except that my meeting with him didn't go so well. He had described U.S. foreign policy as a consistent force for good since 1945 (or something equally stout-hearted–I wasn't taking notes.) This was before he became leader and so more likely than not to be sincere.
Later, though, he misunderstood a line about the international Marxist Left in my speech as an attack on Australian Labor, and berated me strongly. I tried to explain that I realized the Labor party was more than its own left-wing, let alone the wider post-national Left. But he wouldn't be comforted.
Maybe he was fed up with constantly having to distance himself from the Aussie equivalent of the nutroots. Whatever the reason, his anxiety to clear Labor of any taint of extremism was and is a good sign.
And in an unrelated development–despite our mutual pessimism—a pro-American Right may even be peeping shyly forth in the UK. David Cameron is visiting Washington next week and, though the announcement is cautiously phrased, he will probably be meeting Bush on Wednesday.
That would formally end the Big Chill in Tory-GOP relations that began under Michael Howard.
Cameron is also speaking at (I think) Georgetown. That will give him an opportunity to be more pro-American than Gordon Brown. Not the stiffest test, but it would be a start. And if he doesn't take advantage of it, well, that would be revealing too. On the whole I'd rather be in Sydney.

Reminds me of a song by the Eagles,...SHHHHeeeeet screw a bunch of eagles, am sick of iggles. SICK of their fans. Deranged, delusional, rude, naturally obnoxious, whatever sickness they got I dunno.
Now,...back to football. A pasty faced muppet head, like talon, said on the NFLN he expects the NOT ONLY the Falcons to go down but the ENTIRE NFC SOUTH???? You should know why,...he's a former Patriot and the NFC South faces the AFC East this season. These former players on ESPN are the biggest homies in the WURL!!!
But today the weather sucked so got some beer and watched the 11-1 Falcons lose to the Panthers in week 13 I think.
Okay guys, I watched that game and now I know why I wanted to forget it. The Falcons come to Charlotte 11-1 and are dominated in the first half. 38 offensive snaps for Carolina, only 10 snaps for the Falcons. The margin between time of posession, 16 to 0 points, rushing yards, passing yards was just ridiculous.
Interesting the week before the Chiefs dominated the Panthers so that may be where fans who don't like Rivera have a beef.
Back to the game,...the Falcons did come back and score 20 points in the 2nd half but the Panthers finished them off by scoring two more TDs. Ya'll may not recall but the Falcons barely beat the Panthers in Atlanta earlier last season. So if any Falcons fans pump their chest out and feel like some kind of elite fan all the sudden lemme know so I can bust his balls.
Oh yeah,...I did not know there were 19 Panthers players placed on IR last season. See,...already knew the roster was stocked as I said. Now the Panthers roster is obviously stocked to be damned. dammit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the National Transactional LawMeet?
The National Transactional LawMeet is the premier interscholastic competition for law students interested in transactional practice. Future litigators have scores of "moot court" opportunities that provide them a courtroom experience. The Transactional LawMeet provides future business lawyers a taste of "doing deals."
When and where will the LawMeet be held?
The Regional LawMeets for the 2018 National Transactional LawMeet will be held on February 23, 2018, in eight regions across the country. The top two performing teams (one from each side of the case) at each Regional LawMeet will participate in a National LawMeet held at the offices of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP in New York City on Friday, March 30, 2018.
How many members are on a team? How many teams can each law school have?
Teams must consist of two or three members (JD, JM, or LLM students) but only two can participate in any given round. The third may only participate in a given round as an observer. Teams may not have more than three team members participate in the LawMeet. Teams can use other students in an advisory capacity, but no more than five team representatives may attend the regional negotiation rounds — 3 student negotiators, 1 advisor, and 1 observer.
Individual students may not compete on their own, all students must participate in a team.
Each school may register three teams, but each team must compete in a different Regional LawMeet.
As a law student, how can I participate?
Participating teams are generally selected by a faculty advisor at each law school. How a faculty advisor selects team members varies from school to school. If you would like to know who the faculty advisor is at your school or if you would like to register a team, please email us at email@example.com. While some schools select teams through a faculty sponsor, other schools select teams through student organizations. Similar to Moot Court Boards, many schools are creating Transactional LawMeets Boards to facilitate practical learning experiences for students interested in a transactional practice. To learn more email us at email@example.com.
How do teams prepare for the LawMeet?
All teams will be working on a common transactional problem. Each team will be provided with a case statement that sets out the factual background for the problem and introduces the parties to the transaction. All teams will be provided with a precedent form of agreement. Teams will also receive a video recording of an interview with their respective client and will have an opportunity to communicate with their client as they prepare the proposed draft agreement. While we may suggest research links, generally teams will be left on their own to figure out and find the resources they require.
Bloomberg BNA, a sponsor of LawMeets, has also generously provided a Transactional Law Resource as well as a Bloomberg Law Resource to help teams prepare for the LawMeet.
What are the requirements for the team advisor? Are there restrictions on the resources and help we can use to prepare?
Every team must have one Designated Team Advisor.
A Designated Team Advisor may advise more than one team from the same school. Each Designated Team Advisor must be either a faculty member or a transactional lawyer with at least five years' experience. The Designated Team Advisor must commit to meeting (in person and/or by conference telephone/video) with the team at least three times to discuss:
- The Case Statement, Client Interview, and team's questions regarding potential resources,
- The Draft, and
- The Mark-up and preparations for the Regional negotiation rounds.The Designated Team Advisor is not required to accompany the Team to the negotiation rounds.
The Designated Team Advisor will be invited to one optional group conference call to review the Case Statement. This call will give the Designated Team Advisor an opportunity to clarify any issues that have arisen and ask questions about the process.
It is expected that teams will work primarily on their own in drafting the proposed agreement and mark-ups and in preparing for the LawMeet. Only two team members will be allowed to negotiate in a given round and no other person may be present or consulted during that round. Generally, teams are expected to use and rely upon their own, independent work product. Keeping this general principle in mind, there are no restrictions on the outside resources, including outside experts such as practitioners and law professors, that a team may consult in developing their independent work.
How much work is involved? Can I receive course credit?
The time commitment is a decision you and your teammates must make. Past Transactional LawMeet teams have reported spending "hundreds of hours" preparing for the LawMeet. Many schools offer participants in the LawMeet course credit (similar to moot court teams). This is a decision of each individual law school and should be discussed with the faculty advisor.
Are there any prerequisites or recommended prior course work for participating in the LawMeet?
Generally, we assume that team members will have completed their 1L year (although 1L students are free to participate) and have taken the basic business law course. However, there are no prerequisites. The LawMeet is open to any interested student.
Can LLM students participate on a team?
Yes, JDs, JMs, and LLMs may participate.
What exactly will we be required to do and by when?
For the Regional LawMeets, each team will be required to submit a proposed draft agreement by February 2, 2018. In addition, each team will be required to submit a mark-up of a draft agreement submitted by one of the teams it will encounter during the the Regional LawMeet. The mark-ups are due on February 16, 2018. Teams that advance to the National LawMeet will have an opportunity to submit a revised draft agreement by March 9, 2018, however revisions are not required. Teams advancing to the National LawMeet are required to submit a mark-up of the draft agreement from one of the teams they will negotiate with during the preliminary rounds of the National LawMeet by March 23, 2018. To see the full timeline, visit our Schedule page.
What happens at the LawMeet?
At the LawMeet, teams participate in "rounds," each one and a half hours long. During each round, teams come together to attempt to resolve the open issues and reach an agreement for the benefit of their respective clients. These rounds are conducted before a panel of experts from practice who judge each team's performance and provide feedback to the teams at the end of each round.
What should I do if, during the LawMeet, I receive a draft agreement to red-line and it is already red-lined?
If you receive a draft agreement to mark-up and it still shows comments and changes from the team that wrote it, destroy the document immediately and email firstname.lastname@example.com. We will contact the team that wrote the draft and obtain a clean copy for you.
What if I registered a team but can no longer participate?
Unfortunately, participation in the LawMeet is non-refundable. If your team is no longer able to compete, we urge you to find a replacement team.
More information?
The case statement for this year's LawMeet will be distributed on Friday, December 15, 2017. Before that date, all registered teams will receive access to a team-only website. The website will include complete team instructions and other relevant information. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Scarlett Johansson is UvT Quality and got a lot of votes in the Team Us pursuit of the perfect woman. When she brings the heat, she keeps it turned all the way up.
You all come here because Us Versus Them is not like other blogs. Other blogs like to just put up pictures without talking about them. They like to speculate about the lives of celebrities with little or no information. Sometimes they make things up altogether. So when Scarlett Johansson went running last week, some pictures came out that set the internet on fire with pregnancy rumors.
Her publicist came out immediately and said that Scarlett is training for the Avengers movie and is in the best shape of her life. She said these are just unfortunate choices of shirt and pants that caused the confusion. Uhhhhhh, you see this picture and she thinks the unfortunate things are the shirt and the pants? Can we talk about those pink five toe jammies with the strap? How pretty do you have to be to think you can get away with that shit? Dammit, women are supposed to work what they have to maximize their beauty. It is as if Scarlett woke up that morning and thought to herself, "You know what, I'm an 11, so let me throw some hot pink gorilla feet on with this free hat and see what it is like to be an 8 for the day.
Then she wants to prove she's an angel by walking on air. Scarlett is just showing off now. I like how Sean Penn just goes on ahead at 50 and still pulls down one of the baddest chicks out.
Is she still holding down the tail game?
Yeah. I can't see anything but the shoes. They are even worse from this angle. Maybe this is Scarlett Johansson doing community service. She wakes up early in the morning once a month to make herself ugly to raise the self esteem of women everywhere. Pretty girls have to do their part too.

Also, hope you don't have to wait all three years for that 10" Maksutov from Astro-Physics.
Cost to fabricate was $400 and took 5 days... and that's by the locals who observe Aloha Friday and take the rest of the afternoons off to go surfing!!
Glint... I am thinking it may be more then 3 years for the AP MAK-CASS... they still have people signed up from 1999 on their list!
Here's the first which was issued for a variant of the panel in 1966... its identical to the one in my collection.
And here's a line drawing from sometime post 1967... this appears to be closer to the publicly available images taken of the interior of Columbia:
So the evidence continues to mount that this panel was of earlier design (66/67 timeframe) which would be consistent with either an LTA or LEM 2, 3 design version. Have been told that no two panels were identical as they were modified/tailored to each mission...

With the drawings in hand efforts will focus on reenergizing the the photoluminecent panel to take some photos...

Golden Gate Park Panhandle, Saturday, June 8th, 2013.

You know, like this from last year.
This was the scene over the weekend in the Golden Gate Park Panhandle.
See? Just look at those kids go!
Click to expand
But you couldn't hear this party, cause people were dancing whilst listening to a DJ's short-range broadcast.
It's Silent Frisco, baby!
Now, do you remember the five-star rated Panhandle Bandshell from a half-decade ago? It was placed in the same basic place in the park until it got chased away by real estate interests and the horrible white, wizened, wealthy NIMBYs what still infest the Upper Haight / North of Panhandle areas.
Will area NIMBY's now start complaining about Silent Frisco?
I don't know, maybe they never even noticed.
Bon Courage, Silent Frisco!
"Silent Frisco makes your "scene" not heard, preserving the right for artists express themselves in public settings where "noise" has previously made such activities impractical or illegal. Through the use of custom "silent" wireless headphone technology, Silent Frisco produces unique music experiences, where live artists rock the house without waking the neighbors!
WE OWN TWO THOUSAND 2-CHANNEL, FESTIVAL-OPTIMIZED WIRELESS HEADPHONES. Custom-designed and built from scratch, Silent Frisco headsets operate TWO simultaneous independent radio channel feeds, while providing the best in audio clarity, volume, and comfort.
Developed in the 1980s, 'Silent Disco' concept made it's U.S. debut at the 2005 Bonnaroo Festival, where resident Dj and Silent Frisco founder Robbie "MoPo" Kowal (pictured) introduced the user-friendly technology to ecstatic audiences seeking additional late night programming. Since then, Kowal, and Silent Frisco team have been pushing this unique concept at dozens of major U.S. music and arts festivals."
As they say:
"NightLife events in July 2012 at the California Academy of Sciences – every Thursday night is different."
Which one will you attend next?

Soundwave NightLife
Celebrate opening night of San Francisco's innovative three-month art and music festival, Soundwave, presented by MEDIATE and The Bold Italic. The night features a blend of art, science and sound around this year's festival theme: challenging audiences to question their perspectives on the present and our hopes and fears about the future. Futuristic space rock band Lumerians performs in the piazza, musician Matt Baldwin will play amongst the fish in the coral reef, and guitarist Danny Paul Grody will play the skies of the Aurora Borealis in a mini-planetarium, with DJ Tristes Tropiques spinning the night away with disco house/post-punk tunes.

Disposable Film Fest NightLife
This week, NightLife and the Disposable Film Festival want you to do it yourself. What's a disposable film, you ask? A short film made on a non-professional device, so DIY is the phrase of the night. At Disposable Filmmaking 101, pick up tips and tricks for creating a masterpiece with whatever camera you have on you (even your cell phone). Discover the latest and greatest gadgets, apps and hacks you should have in your toolkit from the experts at PhotoJoJo, Boom Grip and Veetle, and then practice your storytelling at the flipbook animation booth and interviewing workshop. Attend a food filmmaking workshop and learn how to make food prep look glamorous on-camera. Stop by the Public Bikes station and contribute your story to their bike advocacy video.

This year's lovEvolution Dance Music Festival will be in Oakland instead of San Francisco?
Click to expand
(Are there street parties still around in the 415 these days?)
Compared to all the other counties out there in America, San Francisco is the highest cost and highest hassle location to do any kind of event. Why is that?
Instead of this:
We're going to have this – sad hipsters all dressed up with no place to go excepting the Oakland Coliseum:
Good-Bye Love Parade. Come back someday if you can.
Ah, memories. (I wonder if all the hyperlinks still work…) Anyway, enjoy 2009:
"LovEvolution 2009 (or LoveFest or the Love Parade, call it what you will, gallery here) went down in Civic Center yesterday- what a huge turnout it had.
Here are the best photos uploaded to Flickr.
Auric Goldfinger really started a trend, back in the day:
Cf. this shot from the Chronicle's Frederic Larson – showing why you generally want to keep your white people skin tone magentas lower than the yellows. As always, click to expand.
Hey buddy, get gold or get gone – chest hair is no excuse:
Here we go, a little gold goes a long way:
All right, that's it for gold. Now how about orange?
Beefcake beefcake, beefcake!
DJ Baybe flew in from Spain just for this event:
The Center of Attention:
Furry boots on top of the truck require an extra hand or two to secure footing:
And let's give it up for the DJs:
Everybody is a participant, everybody is an observer:
It's all fur this year, either up top or on your platform shoes.
Market Street was just packed, baby:
And if you can't afford the entrance fee, just neck outside the double chain link – show them all why they call it LovEvolution:
LovEvolution 2009 (or LoveFest or the Love Parade, call it what you will) is still going strong down in Civic Center today – what a huge turnout it has – check the best photos from Flickr and some more photos posted on SFist. Now this year everybody's paying $10 to get in, so that helps to pay for San Francisco's excessive fees for doing anything, anytime, anywhere. Anyway, it's fuzzy cowboy hats as far as the eye can see. And MUNI is FUBAR'ed beyond all recognition. Oh well.
Remember, this type of gathering is Why They Hate Us. Not Fleet Week or nothing, it's this kind of stuff that They hate. Oh well. Here's a slide show of photos to ponder. And here's the post-first, edit-later (Go Go Gorgeous is a person, really? "Kobayash," is a last name, really?) San Francisco Chronicle's take, along with 23 photos. And here's David Yu's shots.
The cage dancers of Market go rolling up the street. Go Go Gorgeous!

Sandra Gorgeous of GGG, ("a full-service Go Go company") blowing you a kiss – the whole team is "all about adding that sexy, fun, and friendly energy to good events. Pour some gorgeous into your event!" Available, I'm sure, for weddings, bar mitzvahs….
They had a ton of floats going uptown to Civic Center…
…populated by people like these representatives from Sweet Tooth Entertainment:
2009 on the left, 1969 on the right. Dude was baked:
Do people really spray paint their Dell Inspiron laptop computers gold and then take them on parade? People do. "Gold! I love goooold!"
And they all ended up in Civic Center, thusly. Just look at all these good-for-nothing pukes clogging up the place – is this why my grandfather fought the Second World War, and spent his weekends on the Jersey shore?
Pretty much.
See you next year!
SF LovEvolution Fast Facts
WHAT: San Francisco LovEvolution : A Dance Music Parade & FestivalLove Week page for more info.San Francisco LovEvolution Event Changes this year : on the need for a $10 entrance fee to the festival site at Civic Center Plaza
WHEN: Love Week starts Wednesday, September 30th with official and affiliated parties each night all week and through the weekend.
The main LovEvolution event is Saturday, October 3rd from 12noon – 8:00pm.
WHO: SF LovEvolution is all ages & all friendly peoples.
WHAT'S MORE: A parade starts from 2nd & Market St. in downtown San Francisco with ~25 floats heading West down Market St. The parade is free and all ages.
THEN WHAT: The floats arrive at Civic Center plaza where they park to becomes 25 stages on a transformed festival grounds with food, beverage, a new live electronic and performance stage, and outstanding revelry. There is a $10 entrance fee to the festival grounds, children under 12 with their parents are Free. All ages welcome. No outside alcohol.
WHY: The entrance fee was necessary for the survival of the event due to significantly higher city related fees. Please read the whole story below!
THERE'S MORE (!): After the festival ends at 8:00pm a number of after parties kick off all over the city, including the Official After Party produced by Skills & Spundae on site at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. After parties have their own admission and age policies. See the
As anyone who attended last years event knows, SF LovEvolution is now the largest electronic music event in America. Thanks to all those who have faithfully supported us and to the many new Lovers who attended last year. Because of the growth of LovEvolution, however, and to preserve our ability to parade down Market Street and party right in front of San Francisco City Hall, we've had to institute a few changes to this years event.
First, because of escalating city fees and the events growth last year, LovEvolution 2009 will require a large increase in all levels of traffic, police, security and medical personnel. This translates into a very large increase in how much money it costs to pull off this special event. As this is a non-profit event with minimal corporate sponsorship, we will be charging a $10 admission to LovEvolution this year in order to pay for the increased staff and other event expenses. We've always asked for a $10 donation but since most people do not give, donations are not sufficient to fund and improve the event. In order to be able to continue the event, we received special permission from the city for a $10 admission plan. This is as close to free as we could make it and at $10 for 250 world class DJs, LovEvolution is still the best bargain for an event of this scale in America. **We pay 100% of the costs back to the city, so without this change, we could not have the event. Please note kids under 12 with their parents are FREE. You can also get in free by volunteering. Of course – the parade is FREE to all and the entire event from 12noon- 8:00pm is still ALL AGES.** (After parties will vary by event).
Second, there will be no glass or outside alcohol allowed in the event. This has always been a condition of our permits, but when the event was smaller we never had to enforce. But the site was littered with broken glass last year that presented a safety hazard, so we now have to enforce this policy. This is for all our safety and is no different than at any concert or gated event, so please don't bring alcohol or glass, it will be confiscated or you'll be turned away at the gates.
On the bright side, the $10 admission will allow us to continue having this amazing event as well as to add some special production elements in Civic Center plaza. This year we are premiering the LovEvolution Live stage in front of city hall featuring an all out performance by The Mutaytor, and much more tba. The $10 admission will also allow us to reduce prices at our bars since we are now not as dependent upon alcohol sales to pay for the event. We'll also be eventually eliminating entry fees fees for the floats so producers can make their floats even better. And YES – there will be ins and out allowed. And YES, kids under 12 with their parents are FREE.
Last but not least, the $10 admission will allow us to increase the amount of our non-profit contributions to other worthy organizations. Non-profits that received funds last year and/or we expect to donate to this year include:
Friends of the Main Library
Next Aid
Aids Housing Alliance
The Center for Sex and Culture
Beat University Scholarship Fund
Black Rock Arts Foundation
Bay Area Young Positives
Burners Without Borders
San Francisco Suicide Prevention/HIV AIDS Nightline
Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity
Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity
Thanks for your support and looking forwarding to a fabulous LovEvolution 2009!!

have a great time."
Moseley also stated that he will be hosting House of Air's grand
opening celebration, which will begin on Friday, September 17 and

jumpers. "We're going to have a lot of fun this weekend," added
Moseley, who will be doing interviews with the media throughout the
weekend. "I'll be judging a "dinner roll" competition on Friday
evening. The winner will receive a pair of K2 HardSide skis, so
hopefully lots of people will be eager to show off their moves."
The weekend's festivities will kick off on Friday at 1:00pm with a
ribbon cutting ceremony, and will last all evening, before resuming
again on Saturday morning. Those who would like to purchase tickets

The Studio Restaurant and Bar
Heads up! There's a new bar downtown! I can't yet talk about it because I've not been, but I'm always happy to see new pubs sprout up--especially when they boast of having twelve beers on tap! I'M SO EXCITED, I'M GIDDY!!!!
Here's the lowdown. They offer on tap: Bud, Bud Light, Miller Lite, PBR, Stella, Guinness, Fat Tire, Blvd. Wheat, Blvd. Pale Ale, Newcastle, Peroni and Blue Moon.
Happy Hour is from 3-7 pm Monday-Saturday (closed Sundays) and the bar is offering late night drink specials as well.
You can hear live music every Friday and Saturday, join in on karaoke each Thursday, and participate in open mike night on Wednesday.

I've been hearing about this place and finally got to try it.ReplyDelete
Funny enough, I was goint to the Sprint Center to see a show and started at McFaddens. Cool place but seemed very corporate, loud and like a cattle drive. The menu was decent but not thrilling, so we left. We heard some people talking about The Studio and followed. I was glad we did!
There's something to say about local owned! We were embraced the moment we showed up. The menu was major variety and the portions were enormous! I'm a tap beer guy and they had 12 on tap, a good variety. I liked the historical space and warm feeling bar with all the oak. The only thing I wished I'd seen was more people in there...it was moderate but I thought it should be busier. I think it's just a matter of people knowing it's there. It's kinda off the beaten path. I think it's the best kept secret in downtown. I've been back 3 times since and had no issues. Would definitely reccommend.
I've been hearing about The STudio for about a month and never knew where it was. Found it on mcgee which is not a busy street.ReplyDelete
Great beer selection of 12 although one was sold out (couldnt tell which one, the tap was taken off)
Tried Boddington for the first time, like Guiness but lighter, same sexy pour.
Totally loved the place, the bartender was awesome!! More of a local flavor place. That was refreshing.
would recommend.

More of a local flavor, exactly. The history of the place is amazing, and until recently, I was completely unaware of the great architect Louis Curtiss. (Check out kcskyscrapers for a HUGE list of his work!)ReplyDelete
The way I see it, they have a lot to offer, but they better find their groove before even more places open up. I don't get out too much, and there are relatively few places I go:
Davey's Uptown
The Brick
Record Bar
Flea Market
and those with the same vibe. I would love to see The Studio cater to the local, loyal crowd and let the suburbian tourist have McCrappens. I don't want to hang out with them anyway.
