I'm sure you are all aware of what happened in my first encounter, through my previous posts. Once again I faced another problem; this morning I was to be photographing my sister, as a runner. Everything was setup, and had shot some test shoots. Once everything was how i wanted it I started shooting; thats when things went wrong, my strobe was not firing. So I only have like twelve pictures for all my efforts of setting up. I am not sure what is wrong with it, my first thoughts were that the bulb was dead, but then decided it was quite suspicious that either the strobe, or modeling light worked.

P.S. it was freaking freezing out, thought my fingers were going to fall off.

This is part of a Government project to supply power to villages in five provinces in the region that do not currently have access to the main grid.

]]> <![CDATA[All things IKEA]]> http://rachelhenwood.wordpress.com/?p=197 Sat, 11 Oct 2008 03:38:09 +0000 Rachel http://rachelhenwood.pt-br.wordpress.com/2008/10/11/all-things-ikea/ On Valentines Day this year the population of Perth sent up a collective cheer when the new IKEA (the old store was barely large enough to swing an oven mitt and matching tea towel) opened its doors to the Allen Key loving masses. It did seem rather an odd date to open, given that this shop is surely responsible for more arguments between couples than any other. God knows how many couples actually fell out over their meatballs that day and whose relationship never even made it past the lighting section. If Cupid had even been stupid enough to try and make it through the doors, he would never have stood a chance and was no doubt trampled underfoot in the stampede.

I always wonder what percentage of the homes on this planet have something in them from IKEA. Of course who's to say there isn't an intergalactic franchise out there somewhere, it's not beyond the unimaginable.

I know that there isn't a room in our house that hasn't got something from IKEA in it. Take my office for instance. I am sitting in my IKEA cream swivel chair, at my glass 'scripted' IKEA desk, underneath 2 IKEA glass shelves and between 2 IKEA white book cases. That's before I even turn around to face the set of IKEA glass topped drawers behind me, which sit underneath 3 IKEA orchid canvas prints. I hasten to add that the other rooms in the house aren't quite so Swedish in their design and I have never had anyone come to visit and have them ask for a yellow bag and a tape measure at the door.

It's actually quite incredible if you think that the shop, founded back in 1943 by Inggar Kamprad, a 17 year old Swedish boy  who started off by selling pens, watches, jewellery and nylon stockings, has since gone on to become the world's largest furniture store, with 120,000 employees based in more than 29 countries, selling just under 11,000 products.

Incidentally the name IKEA is an abbreviation for "Ingvar Kamprad Elmtaryd Agunnaryd" which is the initial letters of his first and last name, the farm where he grew up and the town he lived in.

Despite claiming that the reason you can never find a member of staff is so that the prices can be kept low, IKEA must surely be making more money per second than their customers can pocket the free pencils. But that said, it is unofficially the world’s largest charitable organization, so can be forgiven for mercilessly emptying out our bank accounts time after time.

I have to say I do love IKEA. There's no where else quite like it. There's certainly no other shop that has the power to convince me that I simply have to have something, that half an hour before I never even knew existed. Every time I go there I spot another weird and wonderful gadget designed to save me time and space. I discover a new and improved way to arrange my clothes, display my books and stack my spices and I always find a new range of crockery that's just crying out to be bought.

It's the sort of shop where you go with the intention of buying some bag clips and a couple of candles and then somehow find yourself coming through the checkout (or should I say slinking through, while silently praying that your credit card can take the battering) with a Billy Book book case, an assortment of glasses that you have no place to store, a single mattress, a new bathroom sink, 8 large wicker baskets that will now need filling and a ceiling light. One that comes in a box the size of a pack of cards and requires an advanced diploma in origami  to put together.

The fact that all of these flat packed and bulky items are highly unlikely to even make it into your car is neither here no there, unless of course your small 4 door hatchback has somehow  magically metamorphasised into a horsebox whilst you have been shopping. Then again, I have seen someone squeeze a single mattress into a Mini Cooper before and we once fitted an entire kitchen into our 7 seater, so the impossible it seems, can sometimes be done.

For all these reasons above I have to say that I also hate IKEA. OK, so maybe not hate. I could never hate it, I just wish that I had more resistance to the hypnotic hold that it seems to have over me once I walk underneath the blue and yellow flags.

On so many visits I have walked the entire way through the store (few people dare stray off the arrows and cut through the displays), written endless lists on multiple bits of paper and spent hours agonising over what will go where. Then I reach the warehouse and find that, surprise surprise, 10/15 items on the list are currently 'Out of Stock'. Worse still there is no known delivery date and I am not allowed to reserve whatever it is I need when it arrives.

A classic example is when I brought the desk that I am at now. There was only 1 of the leg supports (I needed 2) left in the store. I ask you, why 1? Do they sell many tables without legs, or legs without tables? Why did someone else only buy 1 leg? It took 2 more trips to the store before the elusive leg finally appeared and my desk, which was wedged up on a bedside table, stopped wobbling.

Still can't complain, where else allows you to kit out a whole house in around 4 hours.

That's allowing 30 minutes to pick out the items you want from the catalogue, an hour to find them as you slowly walk behind other people 'display shopping' at a snails pace, another 30 minutes struggling to get the flat pack boxes off the top shelf in the 'help yourself' warehouse and then the final 2 hours, stuck in a queue waiting for your 'too big to carry' items to be wheeled out from within the belly of the IKEA beast.

Of course this estimated time doesn't allow for the additional 3 hours that you will later spend driving back to the shop, to buy the bag clips and candles that you forgot to buy the last time. Then queue up for that all important screw that happened to be missing from the original bookcase. The one that is now in several unusual looking pieces and is scattered across your living room floor.

Arhhh, what a store. You've got to love the way they just make you keep coming back for more.

Inside Eli Manning’s Automated Condo

Total home control, or automation, was Eli’s overwhelming priority when the Mannings recently gutted and renovated their 3,000-square-foot Hoboken, NJ, condo, with spectacular views of Manhattan.

One Touch Control

One-touch control of audio, video, motorized shades and lights was a big priority for the Mannings in their renovated Hoboken, N.J. condo. Eli says he loves the fact that he can simply hit one button to turn off all the lights in the home before heading to bed after a long day.

I Love houses that are like these! Home design is definitely one of my favorite things especially when its done well in NYC! Check out more pictures of Eli's home below.

Pleeease!]]> http://idiotgoesgreen.wordpress.com/?p=24 Fri, 10 Oct 2008 03:25:21 +0000 idiotgoesgreen http://idiotgoesgreen.pt-br.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/help-me-think-up-ways-to-prevent-pollution-pleeease/ Alright, so now that I got this waste hierarchy wrapped around my brain, I need to start integrating it in my life. And, of course, I should start with preventing pollution. The simplest way I can think to carry this off is to try to prevent stuff from getting made in the first place. That sounds weird. But basically, if I don't use it, then it won't get made. So I guess prevention = elimination. Plus, this practice will cut down on wasting things in general, which appeals to me regardless of whether I'm trying to go green or not. I hate waste.

At any rate, I looked around on the internet for some reliable suggestions. Here's what I've found so far.

  • Use natural cleaners like vinegar and hot water instead of typical cleaners
  • Survey my apartment to identify other prevention possibilities
  • Practice waste aware shopping, such as avoiding extra packaging and disposable products
  • Eliminate unwanted mail
  • Use canvas bags at the grocery store instead of plastic ones

Along with these suggestions, I discovered that there's an order to following prevention, too. (OMG! When do the hierarchies and continuums stop. No wonder I was feeling overwhelmed to start this. OK, calming down now. Deep breathing. . .) The order for prevention is strict avoidance, then reduction at source and then product reuse. Reduction at the source seems to be more of a corporate action, so I'll leave that for after I've taken care of my own mess.

So I guess I'm starting with strict avoidance. Then what's next? I'm a skeptic, so I'm going to have to research some of these things listed above before I decide if they make sense. I've already put my name on no junk mail lists, mostly to stop credit card offers. I could see if its possible to cut out the rest of it. Or I could survey my apartment to look for further chances at pollution prevention. And that would give me a chance to evaluate my lifestyle in general, too. Decision made. Apartment survey will be conducted. :)

I ended up going with the cheap, filling option of the hamburger and onion rings.

While I waited for my order, the two employees at the counter discussed their cigarette shortage. They both smoked, but neither wanted to purchase the new lights themselves, so they decided to create a pool for future cigarette purchases. They would take money from all the employees (presumably from only those who smoke) and they would then purchase a pack for everyone to share during office hours. For every cigarette one took, that person would add a dollar to the pot.

What has it come to when the guy who takes my hamburger orders can't even buy his own cigarettes? Forget the bailout of the banks, could the government please get these guys a few dollars to buy some lights!

Right before my food was done cooking, one of the employees walked outside to have one of the few smokes left in the pack (I couldn't tell if he threw in a dollar or not). Seconds later, a young patron - no older than 14 - came up to the counter to ask for a cig. The employee simply gave one to the minor then asked for a dollar. The kid cordially complied. Surprisingly, the hamburger hop didn't charge the youth more than a dollar for the smoke. He could have made a little extra for him and his compatriots. He's a better man than I.

The kid looked relieved once he had the Marlboro between his fingers. He took it outside and lit up - to ease his worries about the financial crisis, no doubt. Maybe I should have thrown in a dollar as well. But I don't smoke, although I wanted one last night. Does this mean the recession also encourages smoking? Probably. How shameful.

Yay! It is on HBlue, so I'm thrilled. Now comes the hard part, trying to furnish the whole thing. In my previous house I just had the front room furnished along with some lights hanging around. Now I feel like I need to have more than a living space furnished. But I have no clue what to put in it. I feel I'm fairly practical, so why do I need a bedroom, dining room, or a study, when I have a seating area already? Frankly I don't have a lot of prims to work with, which reminds me I have to get PT to remove that tree that is on the outer edge of the island. Hmm what could I do? I do want to put some more lighting and some more artwork, which I might just have to build myself, although I do like the concept about supporting in-world artists. Hmm any ideas readers?

Sheridan Line

 

The story of a Haunting that took place in the 1950's- 1960's.  Sheridan Line is based off a true story of haunting Pernel endured s a child but was written as fiction to help break up the stark horror of the house.  Pernel says "while some children go to sleep at night scared that there is a monster in their room, there WAS a monster in my room and I had to fight it any way I could."

An innocent child is forced to move from her safe environment to a new home because of her sister's marriage.  Little did Camille know that her live would never be the same after she moved to Sheridan Line.

The new house was already inhabited by an unseen force so violent that it put the lives of Camille and her family at risk.  For years, Camille and her siblings battled the unseen force that leaves her physically bruised and emotionally scared and drives her mother to insanity. Desperate for answers Camille struggles to understand the psychic gifts which have developed in her. As the attacks get more frequent and violent over time the unseen force in her home grows stronger and more daring.  Camille desperately tries to figure out what is going on.  Her life begins to change for the better when she meets and falls in love with Danny, a wealthy neighborhood boy who helps her and her family escape the terrors of Sheridan Line.

...is what that character to the left of Mr. Akanishi says.

The picture used here is, in my humble opinion, the most attractive of July 2007's Popeye feature on Jin. He's not drinking, he's not smoking, and his hair looks normal. :D

A imagem super futurística-oldschool acima é para ilustrar o lançamento da primeira música do Discobot. O duo é formado pelo designer Carlos Costa e seu amigo Augusto Born, e realizam este projeto voltado para um Electro de qualidade. No ano de 2007, o Discobot já discotecava e em julho de 2008 resolveram fazer um remix (e que remix!) para a otimista faixa "Beautiful" do duo Superpose, que acabou superando a faixa original.

Depois do bombado remix, o duo agora lança sua primeira produção original: a faixa "Lights Out", que é muito bem produzida e perfeita para putada se acabar na pista.

Agora é só ficar de olho nesses dois porque prometem, e muito!

zShare Discobot Lights Out.

Um beijo, se joguem!

How much of our time here on earth is spent toward a good purpose, and how much of it is spent on useless, pointless activities?

Sunday night, after the baths, I got an itch that I needed to scratch. So, I broke out my studio lighting set up (umbrella, light stand, wireless triggers...you know) and threw a make-shift studio together in the living room with the dark dining room behind. I frantically looked around for volunteers, and since we'd already bribed the kids with candy, they were willing.

We had way too much fun. Me playing with my camera, the kids playing with their faces:

Of course, I had to get in on the fun, too.

Why the mean face? Well, it was part of a theme for the night, the highlights of which you'll have to check out here (and believe me, they really are the best in show for the night). Michelle's entry has, unfortunately, been disqualified by the judge, Michelle, as being too scary realistic embarrassing. I, of course, will just post them later.
