Reflection test using the new internal Structure Synth raytracer. (Rendering time: 2.4s)
I've started working on a simple built-in raytracer in Structure Synth, both for providing fast previews in the GUI, and for people who are intimidated by the somewhat complex template export.
So far it is pretty standard stuff: a single-threaded, Phong shaded based raytracer which uses the Fast Voxel Traversel method to accelerate ray-primitive intersection tests. As of now it supports reflections, transparency, shadows (the hard and ugly type), and adaptive anti-alias. I've also implemented a simple Ambient Occlusion scheme.

This was amazing. Both Peter and this guy Joey showed up as Tobias - with cutoffs and all. AND both ceremonially de-pantsed upon walking in the door to Cassie's house saying, "do these effectively hide my thunder?"

Twitter has been the best thing to happen to professional development since the invention of the printing press. Okay-- scratch that, the PEOPLE on Twitter have been the BEST. The PLN: Personal, Positive, Passionate Learning Network!
Georgia Avenue at Kenyon Street in NW Washington DC: The strip connecting Howard University and the Petworth Metro seems to be in the midst of a development spasm these days... Now, somebody's secured financing to build some apartments and new retail on this corner.
.....should be interesting...

I am assuming that this is the parade of shops that will likely make way for the development of Roots Hall and Sainsbury's.
I think that this shop used to be "J J Twirlers", a long established trophy, engraving, majorette and dance supply shop.
I never knew that the dead-looking tree in the house we recently moved in was a fig tree. Imagine how excited I was to find out it could give fruits. it even never blossomed!
Belltown shop. It never seemed to be open on the days I walked by. I never did get inside.
Now closed and building demolished.
More gleanings from past years
One of the biggest developments in Montenegro is a multi million pound luxury marina at Porto Montenegro in Tivat. This no expense spared development does not come without waste. These stone cobbles were laid along some of the quays but dug up and discarded when they realised that the rich and beautiful might find difficulty walking on them in their designer shoes. Big thanks due to the Marina manager, a good friend of ours, who paved a way (groan) for us to collect them for free. The plan is to use them as a floor for an outdoor eating area. Not many stilletoes worn in Camp Full Monte so they'll be perfect.
Well that's it for this upload which begins here. Early summer pictures to follow soon.

Playtime for Grown Ups
By Calvin A. Colarusso, M.D.
Clinical Professor of Psychiatry,
University of California at San Diego
(12/07/2011)
Parents always tell kids to go out and play. But did you ever think that an adult, an adult and child psychiatrist no less, would tell YOU, the adult, to go out and play?
Well, Dr. Colarusso is doing just that. In this book he explains both the nature of play and the dynamics which make play such an essential part of human experience throughout the life cycle.
The message is get off that coach, get out of that rocking chair, and go and play. Adults need to play, maybe not as much as children do, but for the same reasons. Play is a way of mastering stress and trauma. It serves the same purpose for children and adults. The stresses of adulthood are in their own way more daunting than those of childhood. And we all have a need to master the traumatic overstimulation that characterizes our busy lives, to say nothing of the internal pressures that continually force us to deal with issues, relationships and experiences from the past and present.
Go and hit that great golf shot, watch an action movie, or see a good romance film and relive a youthful love affair. Join the Monday night football crowd. Reread Portnoy's Complaint. Take in your son's, daughter's or grandchild's soccer game. Buy some new sexual toys. They're all examples of how adults can and should play. Whatever you do, remember that play should be fun. But it's also a marvelous way to master the stresses of life. Just do it!
Playtime for Adults gives a clear understanding of the various forms of play available to adults and the reasons why play is important to mental and physical health, throughout adulthood.
This book includes:
An understanding of what motivates play
The role of thought and action in play
The different levels of play in childhood and adulthood
The relationships between creativity and play
The organizers of play in adulthood.
Sexual play
Understanding the nature of play and doing more of it will lead to a happier life.

Amazon Review
5.0 out of 5 stars hepful and practical, great info!, December 11, 2011
By Angela Johnson - See all my reviewsThis review is from: Playtime for Grown Ups (Kindle Edition)
"As a mother a of three active children, this was a book that I desperately needed to read. My life has been about them and only them since my oldest was born and although I don't regret anything for even a second, I have neglected myself for quite some time. This has led to me and the hubby not really connecting and enjoying each other like we had in the past. Of course if you ask him he won't admit it, but "play-time" for us has been nonexistent in our lives."
"The advice in this book has been wonderful and just by reading it, I've already started to feel better and more care-free. The author has a very friendly and uplifting style of writing, and his insights and ideas on adding creativity and play-time into the adults life are both practical and realistic. His intelligent thoughts on sexual play were probably my favorite part of the book, great ideas for keeping Mom emotionally and physically balanced ; )"
"Great book, I can't begin to recommend it enough. My husband has already agreed to read it too, I got him very interested with some of the ideas I told him about."

Willie has no running water, limited electricity, holes in her walls, and much of her walls and plumbing are unfinished in Greenwood, MS, on January 28, 2022. The meter socket is seen behind her missing the glass covered meter - unconnected. Delta Design Build Workshop has been working with her to apply for U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Rural Development RD Housing Preservation grant money to fix what her fixed income and disability can not support. Inside, she uses a flashlight to walk through what was to be her bedroom to her also unfinished bathroom. Outside, she has no water meter, so no running water; on a temporary post, the utility company provided an electrical outlet. It takes up to five extension cords to get electricity from the outdoor outlet, through a hole in an exterior wall, seen to the right of her, and onto essential appliances inside, such as a heater, refrigerator, lamp and others.
