On the Saturday, I was entitled to a day of rest.. and by rest I mean I had time to run errands for other people.
I did take the time to do a few things I wanted to do last time... tried to hit up a garage sale (failed miserably).
Was in North Vancouver already, so figured why the hell not visit Thomas Haas, but actually have the luxury of being able to eat in peace and quiet.
So, so worth it. Everything was as rich and decadent as I remember it.. or at least the nibbles of it that I had as I wasn't exactly in the drivers seat last time.
Go Fish was another place I hit up again. With family visiting in September, I did the responsible thing and made sure that all the restaurants were still in good condition before suggesting they visit.
The fries weren't as good as I remember them, but the actual fish itself was in good form, with a thin batter shell and moist meat.
Now.. I have to try explaining to people with no car and no GPS how to find the place.

A project entitled "Super Cute" that I did for my art theory class. We were supposed to take something "cute" or "kitsch" and make it revolting or disturbing. For this project, I imitated Michael Paulus's style and showed how if we look at the anatomical structure of cartoon characters we find to be "cute," their proportions are so out of whack that it's almost frightening.
These 39 pictures entitled "Colors of Fall in Yardley . . ." were all taken around my home in late October, pre-Hurricane Sandy. Number 7968 is a photo of the tree that came crashing down on two unsuspecting cars parked underneath it at the height of the hurricane.
Fall happens to be my favorite time of year and not just because pumpkin flavors are all the rage. From late September to early November, Mother Nature puts on her most spectacular show. Trees of all types slowly transition from their standard leaves to shades of red, orange, gold, brown, and even purple. Landscapes across the country pop with vibrant colors and serve as a brief reminder just how beautiful nature can be.
It's a great time for hiking and scenic drives and below are all the resources you need to make your trip happen. Whether you want to know just why leaves change their colors or are looking for where to see specific shades, the answers are here.
So Why Do Leaves Change Colors?
The answer lies in one word: chlorophyll. It's the chemical that gives leaves their green color. Chlorophyll is also responsible for photosynthesis - a process where plants turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar. Confused? Let's back up to the basics.
Trees take water from the ground using their roots. They also take carbon dioxide from the air. But trees need oxygen and glucose to grow big and healthy. In order to do that, they use sunlight to turn the water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose. That's photosynthesis. And chlorophyll helps make it happen.
When summer ends and autumn begins, there is less sunlight since the days get shorter. This is an important hint for trees and other plants to prepare themselves for the winter. Since there isn't enough light and water during the winter for photosynthesis, trees go into rest-mode and will feed off food they have stored up over summer. While processes shut down, chlorophyll starts to disappear from the leaves, taking away the green color. As the green fades, the leaves show other colors that have been there all along - yellow and orange. They have been hidden all summer by chlorophyll and during the fall, it is their time to shine!
You're probably wondering about the other signature colors of autumn - red, purple, and brown. Well, in some trees, such as maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. That glucose is turned into a red color from the sunlight and the cool nights of autumn. The brown color of trees, such as oaks, is made from tannin - a waste product left in the leaves.
The brilliance of colors you see every fall is directly related to weather conditions. The brightest colors are seen when late summer is dry, and autumn has bright sunny days and cool evenings. A good supply of rainfall also keeps the leaves on trees longer and helps to enhance the color.

I made a short comic entitled "Sometimes I feel things and then I feel bad about feeling things". Transcript below because my handwriting is the literal worst.
People mean well when they say stuff like:
(You're so pretty, you should Smile!)
(Oh...thanks)
But more than anything it makes me feel like my emotions are invalid and trivial.
I'll be the first to admit that I can be overly dramatic...
(UGH! Please just light. I will murder someone if this doesn't light!!!)
and I wonder if feeling things makes me a bad person.Everyone else seems so happy after all...
It makes me think that I'm different because I can't hold it all in.
I've always been sensitive and when I do break down, I think about being in kindergarten
and crying in front of the other kids. I think about how alien I felt.
(You're such a baby.)
(I can't be your friend if you cry)
How alien I still feel.
(The littlest thing tears you down)
(You need to learn to love yourself.)
But there are small reminders that I am human.
(I think that the only thing you can do is just try to not be shitty to other people.
You have to remind yourself that they have lives and someone to go home to that loves them.)
(It'll be okay....)
(I Love you.)
and those reminders are my anchor when things are bad.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Weigela is a small genus of about 12 species of deciduous shrubs in the family Caprifoliaceae, growing to 1-5 m tall. All are natives of eastern Asia.
The leaves are 5-15 cm long, ovate-oblong with an acuminate tip, and with a serrated margin. The flowers are 2-4 cm long, with a five-lobed white, pink, or red (rarely yellow) corolla, produced in small corymbs of several together in early summer. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous small winged seeds.
Weigela species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Brown-tail.
The genus is named after the German scientist Christian Ehrenfried Weigel.
The British Weigela national collection is held at Sheffield Botanical Gardens; along with the national collection of the closely related Diervilla genus.[1] The german Weigela national collection is held at Sichtungsgarten Weigela in Buckow, Maerkische Schweiz [2]
Several of the species are very popular ornamental shrubs in gardens, although species have been mostly superseded by hybrids (crosses between W. florida and other Asiatic species).

The book is entitled 'Calling on Edna.' The title patch is made of red calf leather with gold lettering. Volume I is denoted by a single dot; Volume II has two.
The books were bound by a lady who works in one of Harvard College's libraries. She also does conservation work for their collections.
The full leather binding is a true binding. Most published books today are case 'bindings,' but nothing is really bound - it's mostly glued. Here the signatures are sewn to linen cords. Those cords are then woven into the boards that form the books covers. The text block is literally bound to the book cover. The bands seen on the spine are actual cords, rather than cardboard or leather inserts commonly seen on today's higher end books.

ORIGINAL ACEO entitled, "RORSCHACH'S LUNCH No.1" (2009) by award winning American artist/animator Dean A. Kendrick. The piece is a 3.5" x 2.5" ink marker drawing/watercolor painting on paper.
Noted Freudian psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach developed a psychological personality test in 1921 wherein a subject is invited to view a set of paper cards that had been blotted with ink and then explain what he/she envisions these curious shapes to be, thus determining the subject's personal traits and emotional functionality by comparing responses to a set of predetermined guidelines. This series of art works resembles a little known failed test of 1919 similar to the ink blot test, co-developed simultaneously by Dr. Rorschach and one of his dopplegangers during their collective, parallel universe lunch hour.
ACEO stands for "Art Cards, Editions and Originals". These popular, collectible cards are exclusively 2.5" x 3.5" in size.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadnettle
Lamium (deadnettle) is a genus of about 40-50 species of flowering plants in the family Lamiaceae, of which family it is the type genus. They are all herbaceous plants native to Europe, Asia, and north Africa, but several have become very successful weeds of crop fields and are now widely naturalised across the temperate world.
The genus includes both annual and perennial species; they spread by both seeds and stems rooting as they grow along the ground.
The common name refers to their superficial resemblance to the unrelated stinging nettles, but unlike those, they do not have stinging hairs and so are harmless or apparently "dead".
Lamiums are frost hardy and grow well in most soils. Flower colour determines planting season and light requirement: white- and purple-coloured flowered species are planted in spring and prefer full sun. The yellow-flowered ones are planted in fall (autumn) and prefer shade. They often have invasive habits and need plenty of room. Propagate from seed or by division in early spring

André Lhuillier, CSS PhD student. André’s talk entitled “Why Little Samson Didn’t Defeat The Hedgehog: A Story Of Social Influence And The Relevance Of Distribution For Successful Information Goods"
Abstract: In 1992 during one of the fiercest battles of the so called ‘console wars’, a modest game was released in the mist of the industry frenzy. Although ‘Little Samson’ is recognized by those who know it as a great game, it remains unknown for most of the consumers today. On the other side of the battlefield, Sega’s thriving Hedgehog was convincing everyone that they have seized their main competitor ‘Mario Kart’. Despite this momentary victory in consumer’s memory and affection, the real winner was not in the center of the industry’s attention. Having less media presence, the sequel of Super Mario Land for the Game Boy was the most purchased game with almost 200% units of what ‘Sonic 2’ sold. This kind of unpredictable and divergent behavior is a unique characteristic of information goods markets. In this presentation I survey the last 30 years of the video game sector and show its particular composition and evolution. Following De Vany’s approach to Hollywood movie industry I dwell into an analysis of this industry with special emphasis in consumer behavior. Re-visiting De Vany’s proposal I make a simple ABM approach to model and show how placement or distribution properties may induce long tail distributions. Following the relevance of information diffusion and the development of hype in this industry another model is presented. In this case the relevance of a consumer social system and its dynamics. After an analysis of the industry history, consumer’s social influence, sales and distribution/access is reviewed; I present several findings and propose a model to understand them. A final discussion will be opened with the presentation of data on Valve Company digital platform Steam.
St Pancras New Church (so entitled to differentiate it from an older building that remains several blocks away to the north east) was built in 1819-22 to the designs of William & Henry Inwood and is a remarkable example of the then prevalent taste for Neo-Classical architecture. Few churches can claim to be as Grecian in style as this one, which boasts the unique features of two porticoes flanking the east end copied directly from the famous caryatid porch of the Erectheum on the Athenian Acropolis, complete with column figures in terracotta (molded in sections around cast-iron columns). The spindly octagonal tower is a major landmark to visitors arriving at nearby Euston Station just over the main road (as it has welcomed me on many visits to the capital).
The interior of the church continues the theme of Classical severity, with a broad flat coffered ceiling spanning the nave with the apse beyond adding a touch of enrichment. The Victorian glass in the windows does make the space a little gloomier than it could be. The galleries remain and create side aisles beneath them but otherwise the interior retains the impression of a large unified space.
I am unsure what normal opening times are for this church but I believe it is usually open in office hours during the day.

The 2015 UMASH Annual Forum entitled "Growing Agricultural Education: Embracing Health and Safety" was held at the Davies Center on the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire campus on May 28, 2015. The forum was co-sponsored by the the Upper Midwest Agricultural Safety and Health Center (UMASH), the College of Nursing and Health Sciences at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire, the Southern Minnesota Center of Agriculture and South Central College and MN West Community and Technical College, the National Farm Medicine Center in Marshfield WI, and the Migrant Clinician's Network.
The forum included presentations highlighting existing efforts to address agricultural health and safety in educational programs, a panel discussion and a series of small group discussions focused on agricultural health and safety education and outreach. Fifty-five attendees from diverse backgrounds including healthcare, occupational health and safety, education, research, government, media, communications, immigrant services and human resources participated in the forum. The interactive format provided attendees many opportunities to network and take part in discussions with different attendees throughout the day.

INTRODUCTION
This slideshow accompanies a paper entitled Solving The Great Steel Caper: DEW-Demolition Contrary Evidence By Dr. Gregory S. Jenkins.
I have chronologically organized 110 photographs from various perspectives to illustrate some points. The chronology with the associated time-stamp allows the viewer to gauge the variations in perspective even though the differing views are of the same event. True differences in the character of the debris plumes and clouds which develop over time can be quickly and directly observed. Misleading perspectives can easily be judged based upon other photographs.
The main points emphasized in the slideshow are the following:
-The north and south tower plumes before collapse traveled virtually horizontally with the prevailing wind
-during and after the collapse of the south tower, the smoke and debris did not move upwards since the smoke emanating from the north tower which blew directly over the south tower remained unperturbed
-during and after the collapse of the north tower, the smoke and debris did not move upwards since the generated debris never rose above the position of the original plume from the fires
-during and immediately after the collapses, all debris moved horizontally outward and downward due to the expulsion of air from the collapsing buildings. Clouds of dust moved outward resembling a pyroclastic surge, a specific type of low density flow to be discussed, engulfed lower Manhattan. Generated air currents responded to the local topology with some currents moving upward along the face of buildings, while other air currents were channeled through the canyons of NYC. Turbulence maintained particles in suspensions while concurrently transporting the particles horizontally.
-As the debris flows slowed, the larger particles settled quickly leaving behind the finer particles giving the debris clouds the appearance of a ‘diffuse’ cumulus like cloud. The resemblance, which will be discussed later, is not serendipitous: the cloud density and particle sizes are about the same as that of a cumulus cloud
-some of the smaller particles continued to be carried by the prevailing air currents
-the wind currents at 1400’ were about the same as those at 600’ since no significant sheer forces manifested in elongated clouds
-fires began developing within 20 minutes or so after the collapse of the north tower and increased in intensity. As the original debris cloud settled and drifted from ground zero, the whitish plume was replaced by a carbonaceous plume mainly from fires in the vicinity of WTC 5, 6, and 7.
