There's something about a fire on a cool desert night that feels incredibly grounding, and this outdoor fireplace is the perfect centerpiece for the courtyard. The symmetry of the space is very pleasing—two heavy, stacked-stone columns frame the hearth, each one topped with a beautifully carved, swirling capital that adds a touch of classical elegance to the rugged stone. A rustic, dark wood pergola stretches across the top, silhouetted against the deep, indigo-blue night sky.
The fireplace itself is a smooth, pale stucco structure, tapering upward in a clean, geometric shape. The firebox is lit with a warm, bright orange glow, casting a soft, ambient light across the surrounding walls and stone. At the base, two large terracotta pots sit on either side of the hearth, overflowing with bright magenta flowers and dotted with spiky agave plants that nod to the desert landscape. You can just see the edge of the pool at the bottom of the frame, with its blue mosaic tiles and decorative diamond-patterned border catching the warm glow of the firelight. It's a quiet, elegant, and beautifully lit corner of the resort, designed perfectly for an evening of conversation and relaxation under the stars.

"Grounding" is the tile of the Ars Electronica Garden St. Petersburg hosted by ITMO University, Art & Science Center (ITMO University), Art.ITMO.Residency, Dokuchaev Central Soil Museum.
Acceptance of our responsibility before the Earth requires the capacity to think of soil as a complex systemic phenomenon of which humans are only a part. Based on the theories of Vasily Dokuchaev and Vladimir Vernadsky, the Grounding exhibition in the Dokuchaev Soil Museum will reconstruct the meanings of soil and its relationship with humans.

The old Jacuzzi had a shutoff box beside my main panel. Ran conduit with the new ground to it then fished the wire behind the wallboard to the ground bus in the main.

This is not one of those days, but this line has been rattling around in my head for awhile so where better to stash it than in my art journal?
Someday I'll do something with it. Or not. Who really knows? Mouhahaha.
In a way working with pearls is grounding for me, next month it will be 9 years since my first jewelry lesson. I was in a complete different field, really didn't know what to do with myself and had far more money than I do now but I simply wasn't happy.
Sometimes things magically come your way, even when you, yourself don't even know what you need. All I knew is I needed something I wouldn't get bored of, and with jewelry everyday I can make something different, plus I make the decisions and work on my future with my own two hands, this is what makes me leap out of bed every morning and go to bed grateful after a full day. There was no turning back and I quit my job (as a crazy rushed decision), didn't have a lot of tools, took two hour bus rides to go to class or to polish something.
What does this have to do with pearls?, back then I was still learning and I didn't know how to set stones at all.. and for my first two years making jewelry my pearl collections fed me, paid for my rent and helped me get the right tools... Over time you do develop love, bonds and memories with certain materials and techniques because they are all small elements of you, your story and growth.

Grounding Rods do not prevent lightning from striking the structure, but rather intercept a lightning strike, provide a conductive path for the harmful electrical discharge to follow and disperse the energy safely into the ground. It's very important that these components be properly connected (bonded) to minimize the chances for any sparks or side flashes. At LEC, our grounding rods and lightning protection units follow the national safety standards and requirements of the Lightning Protection industry requirements.

Grounding plays a very important role in the protection of buildings and equipment against direct lightning strikes as well as surges from indirect strikes.Grounding rod or earthing rod is a rod that is driven into the ground to provide electrical connection to the ground. They efficiently and safely carry current away from a circuit in the event of an electrical surge. Every grounding rod requires GAF to create a low resistance earth interface making it easier and less expensive to prevent lightning damage.For any queries feel free to contact us at: www.lightningprotection.com/grounding-rod-can-save-your-l...

I seem to be taking my 21st birthday grounding quite well don't you think? This was week two of two and my 21st birthday was drawing closer. We were in the backwoods of Maine and the best I could do was to suffer through it and read as many books as possible until the end of the week. Circa 2000
Components of grounding post: spring and 1/2 in. dia carbon rod. Have since determined this kind of spring is a bad idea and it will be replaced with a stack of Belville washers..
got back from big bear. "hella"-muther-effing-fun.
we wrestled the last night...it was unexpected and so fucking entertaining & grounding in our animalistic nature. i wanted to have my huge drawing pad and just gesturing their stances and face expressions...got some pictures but they suck arse. i dont have the lens for that shit.
altho today i got back super tired after dropping eveeryone off. & had forgotten that i was supposed to take my mum & pop to a funeral. i really didnt want to go. i didnt feel like i was well enough to drive. but i did make the promise so i fucking went.
i really wish my brother had taken them. it was the same mortuary[whateverthefucktheyrecalled] as my friend who died a little while ago. fucking depressing. fucking unnecessary connection that needed to be made. but its truth. and i cant ignore/stray from/hide it.
fuck it. life goes on without them physically here. mentally they're engraved.
although the way in which the lady [funeral that i attended today] died was a fucking abomination. succumbing to depression. completely. wholey. fucking stupid and angers me and i hate it. i hate that thats a possibility! i wouldnt wish that upon anyone! i wouldnt ever want to go through such a SEVERE case. im not the happiest princess on this motherfucking mickeymousse planet...but id kill myself before id let myself live life listless in a death bed watching mindless bullshit on the television for months on end...
fuck that! FUCK THAT FUCK THAT FUCKTHAT MOTHERFUVKIONG AESSHIIITTT!!! FUCK YOU!@!!!@#$%@!!!
IF YOU EXIST GOD....KNOW....KNOW..understand/comprehend..THAT THIS....this...is just...disgusting, and the thought of believing that something like YOU [WHATEVER IT IS THAT I HAVE THOUGHT YOU UP TO POSSIBLY BEING] would inflict such a thing...brings me to motherfucking tears!!! tho in my state of rage, i dont let you take hold of me. i centralize myself. and realize yet again that god has:
-- and --
and i say fine. fuck you. take them! cuntface! @ least i experienced them.
..ok now dinner

The Postcard
A postcard that was published by W. H. and printed in Germany. On the back of the card the publishers state:
"A Real Photograph,
Handpainted".
The poem plumbs new depths of awfulness.
The card was posted in Ilford on Wednesday the 17th. June 1914 to:
Miss M. Davis,
13, Gartmore Road,
Goodmayes.
There was a pencilled message on the divided back of the card:
"Dear May,
Many Happy Returns
of To-day.
Hope we have not
mistaken the date,
not sure which it was.
See you soon,
Freda & Will".
The Grounding of the RFA Maine
So what else happened on the day that Freda and Will posted the card?
Well, on the 17th. June 1914, the British hospital ship RFA Maine ran aground in thick fog off the Isle of Mull, Scotland.
All of her crew, medical staff and patients were rescued, but the damage was too great for repair, and the ship was sold locally for scrap in July 1914. The scrapping was only done in a piecemeal way, and on the 23rd. September 1969 the vessel was found in deep water broken up and spread over a wide area.
Its a connection between electrical equipment, devices with earth plate, earth electrode through a thick wire/strip/rod of low resistance material to provide protection known as ‘earthing’ or grounding. The management of electrical grounding systems includes accurate design, effective implementation, and comprehensive audits of the installed systems. In fault current or lightning strikes, the current passes through down conductor to grounding rod system protecting facilities and machinery.

At this first stage of the carving an even floor is made around and between the decorative elements in order to bring them up into bas-relief.
Grounding post assembled. Post base is attached to rotary stage base with carpet tape, insulating the two from one another.
