Finally got a zero reading on the big tank! Monday! Happy about that. Not so happy about a dead christmas Cory in the 120. Full range test indicates no problem on that system?

Breakthrough Breast Cancer - cycle across Ireland in aid of the Sarah Greene Breakthrough Tribute Fund 2010.
Peter Greene talks about his family and friends completing their challenge of cycling 250 miles across three mountain ranges from Galway to Dublin in memory of his wife and mother-of-two Sarah.
The £400,000 which the intrepid team are hoping to raise from the ride will help Breakthrough Breast Cancer continue the amazing work they do by funding a four year research post at the Breakthrough Breast Cancer Research Unit at Guy's Hospital, King's College London. The research unit's work centres on finding and developing a suitable drug to fight triple negative breast cancer - they type of cancer Sarah had.
Sarah's Fund is over half way towards its fundraising target. For more see: breakthrough.tributefunds.com/SarahGreene2010

BASKETS: With this series Chihuly liberated the glassblowing process from the restrictions of symmetry, allowing glass to respond naturally to gravity. He began to capture in glass the wavering woven forms of traditional Northwest Coast Indian baskets, after having seen the collection at the Washington Historical Society in 1977. Inspired by the stacked and collapsing baskets, Chihuly began to group his Baskets together into sets. Originally the Baskets were earth-toned and red; he later experimented with more exuberant color compositions. A contrasting color is used to delineate the sinuous line of the opening of the vessel -a lip wrap-a technique that would be used in nearly all his subsequent series.
“I had seen some beautiful Indian baskets at the Washington State Historical Society, and I was struck by the grace of their slumped, sagging forms. I wanted to capture this in glass. The breakthrough for me was recognizing that heat and gravity were the tools to be used to make these forms.” – Chihuly
