Shashi Parashar, Providence's Pharmacy Technician, is excited about plans for the new Knowledge Centre. Providing a dedicated space that houses additional resources shows two things: that Providence is dedicated to staff development and truly cares about the quality of patient care.
Shashi has been with Providence for over 30 years and, even though she's in the twilight of her career, she still loves to learn and mentor students and colleagues. "Providence is a great place to work, because of the education grants available for staff seeking to upgrade skills and knowledge in order to better care for patients." In fact, Shashi recently received a grant to complete a program to become a regulated pharmacy technician. "I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to advance. The costs for my family would have made it impossible for me to pursue."
They are the bright minds, the caring hands and the compassionate hearts that make all the difference for our patients. When you lend your financial support to Providence Healthcare, you will help us invest in one of our most valuable assets: our people. Building a dedicated Knowledge Centre at Providence is essential to the future of patient care in our region.
Our experience caring for people with greater acuity has positioned Providence Healthcare as a leader in rehabilitation, long-term care and palliative care. A significant investment in our people is vital to ensuring that they can continue to advance the way they learn and transfer knowledge now and into the future.
With the increasing need for complex care and treatment, the demand for advanced learning among our staff has grown exponentially. What's more, there is a wide variety of practice requirements for Regulated Health Professionals that our clinical staff are mandated to obtain.
Our nurses need access to the proper tools and technology, away from their busy units in an environment conducive to hands-on training as well as e-learning.
Rendering of Knowledge Centre Entrance
There is a critical need for a central location where staff can meet and debrief, with access to computers, simulation labs, and, medical mannequins to support learning objectives, and each other.
Our 14,645-square-foot Knowledge Centre, which will be located in a high profile space within our Hospital, will offer support for our 1,200 staff, 350 volunteers, and 200 students and medical residents. The Knowledge Centre will be available 24 hours a day. Clinical labs will offer training on the use of IV, CPR, and other essential procedures and industry best practices.
This is a critical investment in the healthcare leaders of tomorrow who will dream and innovate. The result will be an ability to instill hope for all patients and their families long into the future.
Inspiring hope also includes the ability for us to provide our people with financial aid to support their continuing education and growth. However, requests for education support have tripled over the past six years. They are now five times more than what we are able to provide.
Your support will enable us to provide Education Grants that will ensure that $100,000 per year is available to our staff to fund their ongoing education and development. The ultimate goal is to improve their skills and ability to care for current and future patients, keeping them on the cutting edge of care delivery.
Our staff, when all is said and done, is our most precious resource.
Your support will help us invest in our most precious asset – our people – by developing a Knowledge Centre and support staff education grants. This investment will continue to spur the great minds of our staff to be innovative in how we tackle the healthcare challenges of today and tomorrow to the benefit of our patients and their families.


text: While attending the Summer NAMM Show, I ran into several friends who thought I had left Tape Op completely. I apologize if my "Gear Geeking" column in the previous issue wasn't clear in explaining that I'm sticking around as Gear Geek at Large (while Scott has taken over the role of Gear Reviews Editor). These friends also mentioned that they really enjoyed reading this column, because it often covers products that are handy in the studio but aren't the kinds of things you regularly see in a pro-audio publication or catalog. Thank you for being fans of my tangential gear ramblings and recommendations. ... SmallRig www.smallrig.com is a manufacturer of all sorts of affordable camera accessories for filmmakers. Two categories of their products in particular are fantastic for mounting studio mics. The first is the Ball Head Magic Arm series, starting at $3.90 in its most basic configuration. The Magic Arm has a central T-handle that tightens down on two metal ball-ends. Ball-ends come in different options, but the standard 1/4'' threaded screw, which works with lots of accessories in the photo/video world, can easily be converted into a standard mic mount using a 1/4'' female (tripod) to 5/8'' male (mic) thread adapter. For this purpose, I prefer the CAMVATE www.camvate.com nickelplated brass adapters that have a knurled "skirt" that you can tighten/loosen by hand. My favorite Magic Arm configuration costs $11, and it includes an anodized, aluminum-alloy, screwdown Super Clamp on one end that has jaws that open to 2'' wide — big enough to effectively grab onto extra-large mic stands, drum hardware, pipes, railings, desk edges, and whatnot. Once you add a mic thread adapter on the other end, you can securely mount even a heavy, large-diaphragm condenser, and use the articulating Magic Arm to orient the mic in any direction. The second product category from SmallRig worth checking out includes Shoulder Rig Rods and Clamps. With various lengths of rods and several different types of connectors and clamps, you can assemble anything from a simple stereo bar, to a multichannel array/tree for far less money than you would expect. SmallRig also offers affordable NATO Rail (a standard for mounting auxiliary equipment) systems, if you prefer to go that route instead. Slow Dolphin, a value brand that seems to exist only on Amazon (like countless other pseudo-brands), also sells camera accessories. If you prefer a simpler solution for clamping a mic somewhere, I recommend the Slow Dolphin Tripod Camera Clip Clamp Mount, which has a single ball-end with a tripod screw, attached to a wide, spring-loaded metal jaw covered in rubber. With an aforementioned tripod to mic thread adapter, the Clip Clamp Mount is perfect for small-diaphragm mics. (Julius Studio, Anwenk, and Fovitec are pseudo-brands that seem to be selling the same products as Slow Dolphin on Amazon.) ... I have several heavy-duty boom stands that can hold a hefty tube mic with authority — some officially marketed as mic stands, and others that I assembled out of accessories purchased from Adorama and B&H Photo Video. I've found that lighting stands and video-equipment tripods perform better and cost less than similarly sized pro-audio mic stands. Just take a lighting stand, attach a grip mount on the stand's 5/8'' stud, put a boom arm (or a cradle for a boom pole) inside the clamp of the grip, and add a counterweight. Impact www.impactstudiolighting.com, Flashpoint/Adorama www.adorama.com, and Avenger/Manfrotto www.manfrotto.com are affordable brands I recommend, but there are many others I haven't tried. Years ago, sE Electronics sold a heavy-duty mic stand [Tape Op #42] that rivaled ones costing several times more. Once I started kitting together my own stands, I realized that the sE was an aggregation of photo/video products.

More Symbolism – The Safety Pin
Safety pins have countless uses.
- Many people have good luck charms.
- Many folks believe not being part of an accident or getting ill is merely a matter of luck.
I do not buy that reasoning but I am carrying a lucky charm in my left pocket.
Three days in-a-row I had walked past this safety pin lying in the sand. Last Sunday after mass at St. Bruno, I decided to pick it up and pocket it.
Well since that moment I have been safe, free of sickness, and I have not even cut myself shaving.
The safety pin can be used by everyone as a reminder to stay in safe situations
and take action for others' welfare and our own individual safety.

Our society has fed teenagers the lie that their actions are unimportant, they can wait until they are older to be productive citizens, and their teen years are a time for carelessness and worldly fun. In contrast to this false view, God's Word explains that teens can be model soldiers in the army of the Lord (1 Timothy 4:12). In light of this truth, we at Apologetics Press are diligently striving to give young people the tools they need to defend the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith. V2, which stands for Valor and Virtue, is a 20-page resource designed to provide teens with exciting evidences on their level, that will strengthen their faith, give them confidence to defend it, and give them the tools they need to do so as they sincerely strive to pattern their lives after Christ. If you know teens that need this material, please be sure to send them to the V2 section of our Web site to view or download copies (http://apologeticspress.org/v2.aspx). To purchase various printed issues, visit the teen section of our Web store (http://www.apologeticspress.org/store/Category.aspx?cid=30).

Where the Sun never makes it hotter than 45 degrees
The full heat of summer is with us again...
It is that time of the year again. The outside has begun to get uncomfortable, even for a few minutes at a time. Office workers need to steel themselves to step out from the comfortable confines of their air-conditioned offices, even if it is just a short distance away to their car.
And, of course, the car is no better. It is like getting into an oven, and it takes what seems a very long time to get to anywhere near bearable; in fact you have often reached your destination by the time the car gets cool enough for you to actually enjoy driving.
If that is the level of discomfort the office workers feel and find annoying, imagine what the tough hard hats are going through right outside your air conditioned office. Construction workers are indeed made of much sterner stuff, or so it seems. They can take much more than their soft counterparts in offices. Whether born to the outdoors or not, they seem to able to work for long hours with or without shade. They easily suffer what is insufferable for others. But do they have to? Should they have to?
There are some jobs that just have to be done. Ask any hero of any disaster movie. But the construction workers that you may see clinging atop sometimes perilous looking scaffolding on high rises, or burrowing away in the craters of vast excavations at huge waterfront projects, are not made of the stuff movies are made of. In fact they are just as vulnerable to the sun as any other worker.
It is true that, unlike schools, construction projects once started cannot be stopped for annual vacations – or for that matter for any holiday. Project delays are very costly and often lead to disputes, making the cost of delay even higher. Construction projects have to be completed in a given time and to the full satisfaction of the client and as stated in the contract. Sun or no sun, heat or no heat, the project must go on. This is a given.
But can anything be done to alleviate the suffering of the workers that have to toil in the heat and the humidity? As in every sector, there are good employers and there are bad employers in the construction industry. You can always tell by observing which company's workers are dressed well, are protected at sites with full safety equipment, have proper transport and accommodation, and are paid on time.
These are the companies that provide plenty of water and shade, frequent breaks and try to do non-stop work like concreting, late at night. There are many more that do not.
The Labour Law No. 8 of 1980 from the Ministry of Labour & Social Affairs does define occupational safety and health and describes a number of steps that need to be taken to ensure the good health and safety of workers at the workplace. But it does not go far enough.
Internationally, there is a 'Heat Index" that combines the measures of heat and humidity to arrive at a level, beyond which ethical companies stop work at open sites. This index varies from country to country but means that absolute temperature is not all that is taken into account. An equivalent temperature is calculated according to humidity to give a index. Beyond a certain critical number, work is stopped. With a predicted temperature today of 420C, which equates to 108oF, the heat index (measured in Fahrenheit on the charts I obtained on the internet) with a relative humidity of 57%, comes to a heat index of 130oF (that's 54oC!). At these temperatures, heat stroke is highly likely, and outdoor work should be stopped or measures taken.
There are no laws in the UAE to protect workers based on a heat index or anything else: it is left to companies to make the decision. Not many stop work. There should be official guidelines on the issue. It is perhaps something that the contractors association could take up, with both its members and government. Some sort of obligatory heat index should be worked out in consultation with health and safety authorities, and companies should be made to adhere to these guidelines. And, since the UAE is very much a leader in the Gulf, it is hoped that other GCC countries will follow suit.

If you're looking for your perfect break in France, here are our top five self-catering getaways to treat yourself to a little escape.
Les Cimes des Arbres is a stunning escape for two in the rural location of Charente. On-site you will find a private heated pool with panoramic views across the lush green landscape and plenty of outdoor dining options to enjoy a meal whilst you watch the sun go down in the evenings. If you can bring yourself to leave this paradise, the local area is dotted with chateaux and medieval castles, stunning rolling countryside filled with sunflowers and quaint little towns and villages to explore including Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, one of the plus beaux villages de France.
Mika-Gale is a beautifully restored longère situated in a peaceful, rural setting near the villages of Ploerdut, Lignol and Guemene-sur-Scorff in southern Brittany. The property sits amongst three acres of private, secluded gardens and is ideal for children with plenty of safe and open areas to run, play and explore. They are many medieval villages with fabulous weekly markets to explore including Auray and Vannes, and slightly further afield, the coast is only 45 minutes away with numerous sandy beaches including Larmor Plage and Guidel Plage.
La Grange is fabulous farmhouse comfortably sleeping eight occupants in four bedrooms with a large, private garden in Seine Maritime, Normandy. This is an ideal place for anyone who enjoys an activity holiday, with the 'Avenue Verte', a 40 km cycle track that was once the railway line between Dieppe and Forges-les-Eaux, just 200m from the farmhouse. For anyone with an interest in art, Monet's house and gardens at Giverny and the charming port of Honfleur are both an easy drive from La Grange.
Bourgueil is a pretty stone cottage offering comfortable and spacious accommodation for 4 people in rural Loire. Bourgeuil has its own outside space for al fresco dining and access to a shared pool and garden. The property is located in a peaceful countryside setting, yet is just 20 minutes from the historic Loire town of Saumur. The nearby L'Abbaye de Fontevraud and Chateau de Villandry are must-visits for any history lovers, but of course wine lovers are well catered with many local wine producers offering tours and tastings.
Vue de Duras is a lovely two bedroom holiday cottage in a rural location amongst vine and plum trees, with stunning south facing views over the valley to the château at Duras. Guests staying here have full use of a private swimming pool as well as a petanque court. Each night, you will find yourself amazed under the clear sky that presents its stars and planets undisturbed by the light pollution found in cities. You'll have an amazing show of the stars and planets at night. There are plenty of local markets to visit and purchase fabulous local produce, and for wine lovers, Vue de Duras is ideally placed for visiting the Maison des Vins de Duras, Saint Emilion, Bergerac, and the spectacular Cité du Vin in Bordeaux.

The Literacy Council of Fort Bend County invites you to the 12th Annual Book & Author Dinner at Safari Texas Ranch on Sunday, January 29, 2012. This year, one of the featured authors is the philanthropist and wildcatter, Lester Smith.
Lester Smith's memoir, You Gotta Dance Like No One's Watching, is a new twist on philanthropy with proceeds from the book benefiting breast cancer and genomic research. He wants to give, and dance, as if no one is watching; although, the world has taken notice of Lester's selfless giving. Lester is inspired to give without wanting any recognition for his gifts. He does not only donate monetary gifts, he also donates gifts of his time and energy to charitable causes.
A true philanthropist, Lester's goal is to eradicate the epidemic of cancer. Through the numerous research institutions and cancer-free programs that Lester has been a profound donor and member of, his impact on the medical industry is evident.
Lester's battles with cancer have prompted him to turn his personal battle with cancer into a very public campaign to find a cure for the disease. He's gone seventeen rounds with two types of cancer and seen the oil industry through its bleakest days. There is no doubt that Lester is a survivor.
A ticket to the event includes a seated dinner, the opportunity to hear Lester's uplifting stories of courage and strength, the chance to purchase an autographed copy of Lester's book and the unique offer to meet other Texas authors. Additional featured authors at the event include: Jeff Abbott, Chitra Divakaruni, Kristin Finan, Ron Franscell, Karleen Koen, DiAnn Mills, Kyle & Jennifer Solak, Rodney Walther and William C. Welch.
For tickets, sponsorship information or to learn more about the 12th Annual Book & Author Dinner, please visit www.ftbendliteracy.org or call 281-240-8181.

Romans 1 and the search for God
I had an algebra teacher in high school who liked to encourage students to solve the problems on their own. Each time I'd ask her how to do an equation, she'd say, "Richard, the answer is in your notes."
I have to imagine many will face God someday in the Great White Throne Judgment. Some might have been atheists, others agnostics and others apatheists (those who are indifferent towards the idea of God). Perhaps the conversation will go like this:
God: Why did you choose to reject Me and My Son?
Person: Lord, I didn't know you existed!
God: What more evidence could you have possibly needed? Romans 1:18-25, tells you there's more than enough evidence to prove My Existence. But you chose to ignore it.
Romans 1 gets a lot of attention as the chapter in the Bible that talks about God's condemnation of homosexuality, and while I believe it does, I think people don't realize the chapter specifically talks also about how God gives us the evidence we need to prove He exists. Those who reject it are left to their own twisted, irrational ways of thinking.
If you'd like to know more about having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, please drop me a line at email@example.com.
Vanity and Romans 1
When I think of vanity, I think of the ending to the 1997 thriller The Devil's Advocate. Keanu Reeves played a lawyer who never loses, works for a New York City law firm and learns that the head of the law firm is not only his father, but he's also the devil (played brilliantly by Al Pacino). At the end of the movie, Pacino's character says this: "Vanity. Definitely my favorite sin."
I'm convinced more and more that vanity will keep many people out of heaven. How many people will tell God at the Great White Throne Judgment that there was no evidence of His existence or of His Son being the Messiah, only for God to tell them, "How can you possibly say that? I gave you more than enough evidence. There is so much evidence of My existence and of My Son's Divinity, a child could understand it."
Romans 1:18-25 tells us of all the evidence that God gives us, and that man in his stubbornness, or in his vanity, willingly rejects it and goes his own way.
For some, the vanity stems from not wanting to admit they sin. For others, it's from a belief that man, through enough evolution, can reach a godlike state. For others, humbling themselves before God is far too humiliating to do.
If you have vanity in your life that keeps you from seeking God, please do anything you can to get rid of it and get right with God.

Keeping the faith by following the 'wedge principle'
When I attended Pensacola Christian College, I remember something taught in social ethics class: "wedge principle". Scripture tells us in Ephesians 4:27 to "Neither give place to the devil."
A floorleader my junior year explained it this way: he chased his sister into a room when they were younger and she refused to come out. He coaxed her to open the door just a crack since he wanted to talk to her. She did. He then used his foot to wedge open the door and from there, overpower her and open it the rest of the way.
If you give the devil an inch, he'll gladly take a mile–and that's just for starters.
Looking back, it disturbes me the number of students who would roll their eyes at the discussion of the wedge principle and think of how we had to hear the same or similar sermon from last year. Such thinking makes me wonder if complacency prevents the average Christian from being truly aware of just how hard or skillfully the devil works to try to ruin their lives and ministries.
It's something to think about in daily living. I thought recently of a Christian I knew of years ago who seemed so on fire for the Lord. He has since divorced and now sees nothing wrong with some activities many Christians would find deplorable. A person who knows him told me it started with a sin problem that just escalated and grew out of control.

Love your sweet little lady's artwork Coleen...so cute! Be sure to keep it and you can display it at their wedding...
Happy weekend, bloggy friend!
I hear you on the WW! hey, as my friends and I say...a loss is a loss. Congrats!
Love the graphic.
My husband watches Arrested Development but I never got into it.
love, love #7!! spot on!ReplyDelete
Buster sucking the smoke out of Lucille's mouth made me laugh SO hard. SO SO SO hard!!!ReplyDelete
Yay for introverts!
My 7 yr old CONSTANTLY abbreviates things. Are we going to have din (dinner), Mom? Can we go to Cal Tort (California Tortilla - a resturant)? Yep, all the time!
Love the 7th take! I have an introverted daughter and I think I'm an extrovert (though I love alone time).
Way to go in the WW! Never tried it but ppl love the accountability. My jeans are my accountability but some times spandex can fool us!
That's so funny you mentioned AD! I've been talking with Mary Kate about it, and how we're pretty disappointed in this season. In fact, the word "sucks" has been thrown around a lot.
Though as always, Lucille and her wink steal the show.
So sorry, felt the same as Cari. So so disappointing. I think I had too much faith...Delete
Love that Tom Haverford bit! We reference it frequently. We're only a couple episodes into AD, and it has been a bit disappointing. I'm glad you thought it gets better!!
And I think I need to print out that introvert/extrovert pic. It describes my husband and me to a tee! (I'm the introvert, he is very extroverted)
Have a great weekend!
i love the card mags made for robby!ReplyDelete
Do you guys go to WW meetings...in the morning...before work? Or, are you doing online? I used to be signed up for online WW...I've never actually worked up the nerve to go to an actual meeting.ReplyDelete
Maggie and her artwork; priceless!
Arrested development is a really funny show....I'm still watching the original episodes on netflix.
Very interesting about the magnesium and oh yeah....ewwww.
I totally can do the wink thing...not really sure if I'm proud of that. I think it's genetic, I can do it, my Mama and my Granddaddy could. Hmm... I don't have TV so I'm lost with the rest but your presentation on the food pic is about as awesome as mine..yah, sorry that probably wasn't a very nice thing to say!

Fall is basically here and that means the autumn leaves start to change into red, yellow, and brown and fall off the trees. Night time arrives faster which means the shorter days, there's less sunlight, and colder weather. Kissing summer goodbye is hard enough but also finding the right amount of vitamin D your body needs during this time is also a struggle.
A recent study by BetterYou found that 19 per cent of British adults have low levels of vitamin D, and this is particularly problematic in autumn and winter. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is key for the maintenance of minerals such as calcium and phosphorus.
Your main source of vitamin D is the sun – ultraviolet B radiation from sunlight can be synthesised by vitamin D3, the active form of Vitamin D, when exposed on the skin.
Studies have shown that we need around 10 minutes of sunshine a day to get your Vitamin D fix, but of course, everyone is different and your levels will not only depend on the seasons but also on how often you stay indoors, how much your clothing covers your skin and different skin pigmentations.
If you don't get enough vitamin D you may experience some symptoms of bone pain and muscle weakness can mean you have a vitamin D deficiency. Too little vitamin D can pose health risks. Low blood levels of the vitamin have been associated with increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment in older adults, severe asthma in children, and cancer.
Other signs of vitamin D deficiency can manifest themselves in common health conditions such as constant coughs and colds, tiredness and fatigue, seasonal affective disorder, poor bone and tooth health and low mood. Get outside and get your vitamin D today with SolTech+

If you haven't been paying attention, there's been a ton of buzz surrounding one of our favorite reality star families. It looks like Amy is heading off the farm as she recently purchased a home. Audrey is doing her best to nurse Jeremy back to health after his surgery. And Tori Roloff. Well, people are trying her -- going as far to hurl insults about the expectant mom's body. Welp, it seems another Roloff has people talking as Little People, Big World fans are talking about Matt's latest photo with his girlfriend.
... and it's safe to say people are freaking out.
Matt and Caryn were all smiles at a party.
"Caryn and I were invited to a Neighborhood party tonight at the home of our friends Jeff and Sandy ..." Matt Roloff reveals in his post. "Only condition ... you had to wear a hat! Hat So much fun!"
While their love has fans of these smiling from ear to ear,
Matt and Caryn, who've known each other for a long time now (Caryn used to be the manager of his family farm), made their romance social media official back in March 2017. (Amy has accused Matt of cheating while they were still married, but he continues to deny those claims.) These two have been inseparable ever since, splitting their time between Roloff Farm and Arizona, where Caryn is from.
others are focused on the "ghost hands" between the couple some are calling "creepy."
Blink and you likely missed two random hands on Caryn and Matt's shoulders in the middle of the photo. Given these lovebirds' hands are present and accounted for in the pic, it's understandable why some folks are taken aback, though there is obviously a very good explanation.
Y'all can calm down now (LOL).
Given Matt's past confessions about knowing next to zilch when it comes to technology and social media, the extra hands in this photo likely belong to others in the photo he decided to crop out. We highly doubt he spent much time Photoshopping the people out, so let's just keep the focus on what's most important: Caryn and Matt's happiness.

Some good recommendations above, but I don't agree with the negatives regarding Del Dotto. I had a tasting there (no tour) and found the people great fun and the wines outstanding. If you don't like this type of decor be sure to stay away from Darioush.
I dont know how anyone could evaluate a wine with LOUD music blasting and so many people in that main area/lobby. Even inside the "caves" you could hear the music, and there were at least 3 other "tours" going on at the same time. As far as we could tell, and the people we spoke to, its a place that people go to get hammered. Other wineries called it the 'Party Palace' and 'Del Blado'. Had the tour been free, or $25 a head it wouldnt have been so bad...but $50 each for what we got was a joke. To each his own.
We did do Darioush, based on another recommendation. While the decor is just as tacky as Del Dotto, the tour is actually a tour, the host was knowledgeable, and after the tour, you go to a sit down tasting with various cheeses and 6 wines. After that sit down tasting (in a private room within the caves), we went upstairs to another room where the host poured a few other wines to try. It was very good.

A post-modernist farce from director Bruce McDonald, whom New Horizons audiences know from such films as Pontypool. McDonald's mockumentary cult classic Hard Core Logo (1996) followed a punk band's career in an energetic but melancholy tale that ended in the lead singer's suicide. The sequel revisits McDonald's documentary director alter ego, who appears to have lost his edge working in the mainstream, but suddenly finds renewed vigor in a controversial new singer. The self-referential film is a tongue in cheek tribute to underground musicians toiling out of the limelight. They might be weird, even unbalanced, they might chain-smoke and they might be kitschy, too, but they are honest to their hard core at making music that's loud as hell.
Toronto Film Critics Association Awards 2010 – Special Citation
Bruce McDonald was born in Kingston, Ontario in 1959. He studied film at Ryerson University in Toronto. After picking up a Toronto IFF award for his debut Roadkill, he commented that he would spend the $25,000 in prize money on a big chunk of hash. Hard Core Logo and its sequel both feature prominently in the mockumentary pantheon, while The Tracy Fragments (screened at the 9th NH) displayed innovative visual design and editing. McDonald works both in cinema and television, directing such series as The Bill, Queer as Folk, and Degrassi: The Next Generation. His films have earned him a devoted cult following.

Combine multiple photos into a single image for convenience.
When you choose to [Hack #59], eBay allows you to specify only a single image URL to appear beneath your auction description. If you have any additional photos, you'll have to include them directly in the description with HTML, using any of several different methods described elsewhere in this chapter. But you also have the option of combining all your photos into a single image file, thus completely eliminating the need to use thumbnails or a photo album to organize multiple pictures.
A single collage of your photos is easy to build, and ultimately requires less work to insert into your auctions. It also gives you fuller control over the presentation of your photos, allowing you to easily emphasize the most important pictures.
You don't have to host your own photos to take advantage of this hack. However, if you use eBay's Picture Services to host your photos, you'll be limited to their cramped 400 x 300 standard size, which is really too small for a photo collage. And while the "supersize" option would indeed remedy this, it will end up costing more than hosting multiple photos separately.
To build a collage, start with the most prominent photo of your item, properly cropped and resized, as explained at the beginning of this chapter. Then, use your image editor to increase the canvas size to accommodate additional photos. Most users are more accustomed to scrolling web pages up and down, rather than side to side, so you'll usually want to orient your photos vertically rather than horizontally. For example, if you're combining three 600 x 450 photos, make the canvas at least 700 x 1400.
Next, place your additional images on the newly enlarged canvas. In most image editors, you can do this via copy-and-paste. First, open one of the images you want to place in the new canvas, select the entire image area (Ctrl-A), and copy the image to the clipboard (Ctrl-C). Then, paste the image into your new canvas (Ctrl-V) and use the mouse to position it. (See the next section for some shortcuts for Photoshop users.)
Figure 5-13 shows a completed photo collage. Here, a black background was used to make the collage a bit more striking. You can use white if you want the photos to blend in more smoothly with the surrounding auction. You may want to avoid brightly colored backgrounds, however, as they can be hard on the eyes.
When you're done, crop out any unused background (except for perhaps a nice thin border). If needed, shrink the collage down so it isn't too large (see the beginning of this chapter for details). Finally, save it as a JPG file and you're ready to go!
Adobe Photoshop has a few nice features that can make collages much easier and quicker to create.
First, you can create a macro (Action) to increase the canvas size and turn the original photo into a floating layer. (You can also download this macro at www.ebayhacks.com.) Here's how to do it:
Open a sample photo in Photoshop. Any file will do, as long as it's smaller than 1000 x 1000 pixels.
Show the Actions palette by going to Window Actions.
Record a new action by clicking the little arrow button at the top-right of the Actions palette, type a name like "Increase Canvas Size," and click Record.
Click the little black/white icon below the color swatches to reset the colors to black and white.
Press Ctrl-A to select all.
Press Ctrl-X to cut the selection to the clipboard.
Go to Image Canvas Size, type arbitrarily large numbers for the new width and height (try 1000 and 1000), and click OK. (You can use larger numbers if you think you'll need them.)
Press Ctrl-V to paste the image back into the newly enlarged canvas.
Press the square "Stop" button at the bottom of the Actions palette.
Click the little arrow button at the top-right of the Actions palette and select Button Mode.
From now on, to increase the canvas size and float the image, all you need to do is click the Increase Canvas Size button on the Actions palette.
Once the canvas size has been increased, the next step is to paste other images onto the collage. But Photoshop has a shortcut for this, too. Just open the other photos and use the Move tool to drag them from their own document windows onto the newly enlarged canvas (no fussing with copy-and-paste).
You can then press Ctrl-T to begin a free transform and resize the photo in place (hold the Shift key to preserve the aspect ratio). When you're done, select any tool on the toolbox to commit the Free Transform.
Finally, go to Layer Flatten Image to combine all the floating layers so that the file can be saved as a JPG. Or, to preserve the floating layers, go to File Save for Web (Photoshop 7.x and later only) and save the file there instead.
