The environmental impact of a green roof is undenyable, and adds significantly to the LEED Point system designed by the USGC in all five major areas: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality. Green roofing replaces the green space displaced by a building, prevents excess storm water drainage, reduces the temperature of a building and the urban heat island effect, protects and extends the useful life of a roof, and reduce energy demands.
What's more, a green roof incorporating AirDrain means your design includes renewable, recycled, and locally obtained materials. We know you have a choice in designing a green roof, and we hope you consider the many benefits of AirDrain.

Batik Stamping
1. Prewash T-shirt to remove any finishes that may prevent absorption of dyes. Dry and iron if very wrinkled.
2. Cover table with plastic tablecloth.
3. Cut a rectangular piece of parchment paper about the size of the T-shirt and insert it between the layers of the T-shirt to prevent the resist and dyes from bleeding through to the backside. This paper remains inside the shirt through the entire dyeing and microwave process.
4. Place T-shirt on sheets of plastic wrap that have been overlapped so plastic is slightly larger than shirt.
5. Plan placement of batik stamped design. Fold T-shirt in half to find center. Mark center of neckline with a pin.
6. Pour a small amount of Batik-EZ resist on a paper plate. Using a small brush, apply resist to the daisy stamp. Wipe off excess resist from stamp with end of brush. Wipe on paper towel. Beginning at the neckline, press half of the daisy stamp in the center of the shirt (remove pin before stamping). Then continue stamping half daisies from the center to the shoulder seams.
7. Then randomly stamp whole daisies over the front of the shirt. Stamps can really be placed anywhere – down a sleeve or around the hemline. If you're stamping on the sleeve, be sure to cut a piece of parchment and insert in the sleeve to avoid resist bleeding to the back of the sleeve.
8. Let the Batik EZ resist dry or use a hair dryer to speed up the drying time.
The transmission spectrum here shows the broad absorption band at 550nm attributed to the Ca colloid but also the vibronic ripples below 500nm that is seen in some yellow fluorites coloured by the ozonide ion O_3^- (Bill, 1981). This is the first time that I have seen both colouring mechanisms operating in the same sample.
The regions of the sample that exhibit the ozonide absorption show also a strong red fluorescence under laser excitation around 405nm (see the next post). The transmission spectrum was obtained from the region marked with the mouseover box near the centre of the lower purple band.
Continuing my local exploration of the the small massif of the Mont-d’Or, next to Lyon city, France, I went to Albigny-sur-Saône for a walk to the neighboring village named Curis-au-Mont-d’Or and return.
I loaded a circa-1971 Nikon F (see below for details about the camera) with a 36-exposure black-and-white film Rollei RPX 400, a classical 400 ISO panchromatic film coated on a cellulose ori-acetate base. The standard lens Nikkor-S Auto 1:1.4 f=50mm was equipped with a 52mm F-Pro B+W orange filter (Ref. 099 IR) and the original metal Nikon HS-1 shade hood for the 1.4/50 lens.
Expositions were metered for 200 ISO to compensate the light absorption of the orange filter. Metering was done using a Minolta Autometer III equipped with a 10° finder for selective measures privileging the shadow areas.

After the last view (Nr. 37) exposed, the film was fully rolled back to the cartridge and was developed in a Paterson tank using 350 mL of Adox Adonal (Agfa Rodinal) developer prepared at the dilution 1+25 and the film processed for 12 min at 20°C.
Digitizing was made using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) held on a Minolta Auto Bellow III equipped with a Minolta Macro-Bellow lens 1:3.5 f=50mm and a Minolta slide duplicator. The light source was a LED panel CineStill Cine-lite. The RAW files obtained were inverted within le latest version of Adobe LightRoom Classic (Version 14.5 of Aug. 2025) and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as printed files with frame or the full size JPEG together with some documentary smartphone pictures.
About the camera :
I have in my camera collection two Nikon F’s (marketed by Nikon from 1959 to 1973) : one mid-age 1964-1965 and a late one 1971.
This late Nikon F was produced (as all Nikon F’s) in the Nippon Kogaku Corp. historical factory of Oi , Nishioi 1-Chōme, Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan, between January and March 1971. Nikon F system got in the mid 60’s an international high reputation and soon became an iconic SLR camera widely used in photojournalism and other professional uses. Nikon F and following series (F2 to F6) illustrated the archetype of professional SLR film camera for over 60 years.
I imported to France the camera from Japan in January 2022 in a pristine condition and equipped with a standard Nikkor-S Auto 1:1.4 f=50mm matching the production period of the camera (so-called pre-AI lenses) with the original metal shade hood. The camera came also with a working photometric prism viewer Photomic FTn including two CdS photocells and coupled both to the shutter speed and the aperture setting.
I completed later on my Nikon F’s kit with two lenses including the legendary Nikkor-P 1:2.5 f=105mm and a wide angle Nikkor-N.C. 1:2.8 f=24mm, a Speedlight SB-10 electronic flash with the Nikon coupling AS-1 flash shoe.

These plots show the yellow fluorescence of a natural yellow/brown zircon. The image shows the stone illuminated by UV light around 370nm. The two spectra show the broad band emission when excited by 254nm Hg light (orange line) and by 365nm LED light (blue line, shifted up 10 units for clarity).
The thin grey lines show gaussian profiles, computed in photon energy space, fitted to the two spectra and plotted here in wavelength space (which makes an asymmetric profile broadened to the red). The fit parameters are shown on the plot ('Gauss_1' referring to the 254nm spectrum).
The fact that single gaussians fit so well supports the notion that this radiation-induced colour centre fluorescence is a single process acting within the crystal.
Such stones have been subject to accumulating radiation damage produced by neutrons and alpha particles emitted during the radiative decay of uranium and thorium impurities over hundreds of millions or even billions of years.
Note that this measurement can only be made with a flux-calibrated spectrometer having a well determined conversion from spectrometer counts to (relative) energy per unit wavelength.

The twin role played by the skin – protection from excessive UV radiation and absorption of enough sunlight to trigger the production of vitamin D – means that people living in the lower latitudes, close to the Equator, with intense UV radiation, have developed darker skin to protect them from the damaging effects of UV radiation. In contrast, those living in the higher latitudes, closer to the Poles, have developed fair skin to maximize vitamin D production.

A little self-awareness goes a really long way.
It’s totally different than self-absorption. I remember times where I directed way too much energy towards trying to craft some sort of image, to come across as a certain way, or to impress the right groups of people. It’s amazing how much time you can spend thinking about yourself without self-awareness.
Self-awarness takes honesty. Knowing your natural strengths, weaknesses, motivations, and tendencies can be such a difference-maker. The more I’ve understood these things about myself, the more I’ve understood the best ways for me to help people, things I should commit to that challenge me, and why the same event might trigger different reactions from me than other people I’m close to.
I’ve learned to embrace my adventurous side, while realizing that the things that grow me more are long term, patience-testing commitments. I’ve learned to appreciate the fact that I’m an inevitable optimist without expecting the same amount of belief from other people.
Everyone has their own path to growth, but it’s so much easier to commit to growth when you know your starting points.
This figure shows a full calculation of the mica fringe pattern using the methodology presented by R. Swanepoel, 1983, J. Phys. E: Sci. Instrum. 16, 1214. (orange line). The observed data are shown as the blue line (visible JAZ spectrum) and the blue x (NIR NIRQUEST spectrum - which does not resolve the fringes below about 1100nm).
In the calculation, the absorption coefficient (giving the imaginary part of the refractive index) has been determined from transmission measurements (green line) of a thicker (0.63 ± 0.02 mm) mica flake.
For simplicity, I have used a value for n (the real part of the refractive index) which is a linear function of wavelength. This is not a very good approximation and should really be replaced by a more appropriate functional form. However, the model is a respectable fit to the data.
The black dots show the interference order calculated by the simple geometrical formula for transmission maxima (no phase change of pi as in reflection) are given by:
2 n d cos(beta) = m Lambda_t
where n is the refractive index (using the same linear function), d is the mica thickness, beta is the angle of refraction (inside the mica) = zero in this case, m is the order of the interference and Lambda_t is the wavelength of maximum transmission.
In this plot, the order, m, runs from 10 to 62.
This has been an interesting exercise for me in classical optics modelling and is, of course, very relevant for problems such as 'fringing' in CCD imaging.

Balanced Calcium Formula To Deliver More Calcium
Are you taking the right kind of calcium supplement?
Are you sure that you are absorbing the calcium tablets you are taking?
With Nn Calcium Plus, you can be sure that you are getting the right form of calcium that allows maximum absorption for a lifetime of stronger bones.
Superior, balanced calcium formula with the essential nutrients, including Magnesium, Vitamin D, Manganese and Zinc, needed to optimise calcium absorption and utilisation in the body. Each easy-to-swallow tablet provides 1,050mg of Calcium citrate.
Vitamin D omproves calcium absorption in the intestines, directs calcium into the bones and suppresses the parathyroid hormones responsible for calcium loss from the bones. Manganese, on the other hand, accelerates the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides for bone matrix formation, while Zinc activates osteoblast (bone forming cells), and improves collagen and chondroitin synthesis for stronger joints. Most importantly, Magnesium ensures bones formed are more flexible and less brittle.
• No chalky taste
• Higher absorption - 2.5 times MORE bio-available than calcium carbonate*
• May be taken any time - even on an empty stomach
• Does not cause constipation or gas like conventional calcium tablets
*Based on research by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, published in Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 1999 Nov; 39(11):1151-4
Are you absorbing your calcium supplements?
You may not be getting the most out of the calcium that you are taking if it is not in the correct form. Studies confirmed that Calcium citrate is more superior to most commercial calcium supplements. Even if you have insufficient stomach acid like most people, you would still be able to absorb 45% of Calcium citrate supplements, in comparison to only 4% of Calcium carbonate supplement. When calcium isn't absorbed into your bones, it collects in your joints causing bone spurs (a symptom of arthritis), in your kidneys causing kidney stones, or in your blood vessels causing clogged arteries.
How strong are your bones?
Calcium alone doesn't protect your bones! In fact, too much calcium without magnesium can lead to the formation of brittle bones that break easily. Magnesium makes the bones more flexible and less prone to breaking. A good example is to observe the difference between chalk and ivory. Blackboard chalk is calcium carbonate. It breaks wasily when you drop it. Ivory, on the other hand, is a combination of calcium and magnesium. It bounces back without breaking when it's dropped. Similary you'd want your bones to be like ivory and not chalk.
What Calcium Can Do For You?
• Builds strong bones & teeth
• Prevents osteoporosis
• Relieves muscle cramps & twitches
• Alleviates insomnia & sleeping problems
• Reduces high blood pressure (Hypertension)
• Alleviates Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
COFFEE DRINKERS - BEWARE!
You lose about 5mg of calcium with each cup of coffee you drink. Unless you are replenishing the lost calcium, you may risk losing your bones.

Meriva®
A Breakthrough in Curcumin Absorption*
Whether taken as a supplement or from food, regular curcumin is generally poorly absorbed into the bloodstream. Working with Indena S.p.A., the worldwide experts in botanical extract technology, we have found the answer to better curcumin absorption – phytosome technology.* Two studies have shown Meriva Curcumin Phytosome to be significantly better absorbed than a standardized curcumin extract.*
Meriva (click on name to go to product pages)
For People Who Just Play Too HardTM
We all have occasional aches and pains from over-exertion. We play too hard, work too hard, and we pay for it with stiff joints and sore muscles. Meriva can help reduce the occasional stiffness and soreness we all experience.*
The body's normal inflammatory response is a natural process and a contributor to many reactions that go on in your body. This response happens automatically and is not something you can control. The primary objective of the body's normal inflammatory response is to isolate and eradicate irritants and then repair surrounding tissue.
What is "Normal Inflammatory Response?"
The term "normal inflammatory response" may not mean much to you, but its physical impact on your body is vitally important. It can arise from trauma, infection, or other influences, and is a normal process that encourages healing. From the slightest seemingly harmless bump on your arm to a major health concern, the body's normal inflammatory response is always at work to keep you as healthy as possible or to restore your health as best as it can. Of course, a lot of this depends on individual health.
The body's normal inflammatory response is the protective response of the body's tissues to irritation or injury. Sometimes this response can be prolonged due to a deficiency of essential fatty acids or other nutrients. In such cases, supplementation with beneficial fatty acids or other nutrients is often suggested. Sometimes there are other reasons for a prolonged inflammatory response and physical therapy or dietary changes may be helpful. For centuries, people have used natural chemicals found in plants (phytochemicals) to enhance the body's normal inflammatory response to injury or wear and tear. For example, the bark of the willow tree was used to relieve pain and discomfort more than 2,000 years ago by the Greeks and Romans and evolved into the aspirin we use today.
Curcumin – Supports the Body's Normal Inflammatory Response*
Turmeric, a well-known traditional herb, contains curcumin, a potent antioxidant that offers numerous health benefits.* Most of these benefits come from curcumin's strong antioxidant activity and its ability to support the body's normal inflammatory response.* Curcumin interacts with numerous biochemicals in the body to promote the body's normal inflammatory response and help keep this response functioning as it should.*
Emerging research suggests curcumin's antioxidant activity and support of the body's normal inflammatory response, as well as its potential to support already normal cholesterol levels, has a significant role to play in contributing to cardiovascular health, liver function, and joint health.*
Absorption You've Been Aching ForTM
The potential health benefits of curcumin are the subject of numerous ongoing clinical studies and have been featured in print media and television news programs. However, what makes curcumin so beneficial to the human body – its molecular structure – also makes it difficult to be absorbed into the bloodstream. If the curcumin isn't absorbed, it can't get to the body's cells that need it. To address this issue, Thorne Research has teamed up with Indena S.p.A., the worldwide experts in botanical extract technology, to bring you Meriva Curcumin Phytosome, a well-absorbed curcumin extract.*
Superior Absorption*
Phytosomes are plant extracts bound to phosphatidylcholine (fos-fa-tidal-ko-leen), which is an essential component of human cells. Our bodies make phosphatidylcholine, but we can also get it from food and supplements. When taken orally, phosphatidylcholine is very well absorbed.* To improve absorption, scientists at Indena found a way to attach curcumin to phosphatidylcholine – the result is Meriva! When you take Meriva your body readily absorbs the phosphatidylcholine and the curcumin attached to it, resulting in more curcumin reaching the cells that can benefit from it.*
Superior Bioavailability*
A 2007 study published in the journal Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology demonstrated Meriva's superior bioavailability compared to a standardized curcumin extract. This animal study noted a significantly greater amount of curcumin in the blood and tissue after dosing with Meriva. A human study compared blood levels of curcumin after dosing with 4 grams of a standardized curcuminoid extract to 450 mg Meriva curcuminoids (bound to phosphatidylcholine), and found similar blood levels of curcumin.
Ensure Superior Absorption When Purchasing Meriva
Thorne is the only company to provide Meriva in a patent-pending, time-release matrix, which causes the Meriva to be released slowly into the intestines, ensuring controlled absorption into the bloodstream.* This is similar to how nutrients are absorbed from a high-fiber meal. Non-time release products may absorb quickly – but in order to keep curcumin blood levels in your body consistent, more frequent dosing is required. Meriva-SR's sustained-release technology allows you to take it twice daily, because it is released more slowly into the body. Thorne Research does not add the flowing agent magnesium stearate to its Meriva product. This ensures you get only the purest product that contains no unnecessary ingredients that can inhibit the product's absorption. The whole concept with Meriva is that it can significantly increase the absorption of curcumin in the body; however, magnesium stearate may inhibit absorption. One reason physicians choose Thorne for their patients is that Thorne never uses magnesium stearate. Thorne is about purity and absorption.
Meriva-SR provides 250mg of curcumin phytosome per capsule in our patent-pending time-release matrix. Each bottle contains 120 vegetarian capsules.

This is another improvement on previous attempts to capture the weak and elusive luminescence spectrum of titanite (sphene). This sample was excited by a powerful (500mW) violet 404nm diode laser and the spectrometer protected with a yellow filter cutting at 500nm. The filter exhibits an orange continuum fluorescence which slightly contaminates the luminescence spectum of the crystal spectrum. The maximum contamination is shown by the grey line.
The emission lines are from rare earth elements (REE) and the elements terbium, erbium, europium, samarium and neodymium have been identified.
