The symphony of construction continues in the River North area of Chicago.
(As an aside, what do you think about aka darkening the shadows of the windows? Is the lumber framing work in the background distracting or does it enhance the photo?)
I keep a separate notebook for each of the "compartments" of my job. I scribble on the covers of the little black moleskines, cover my Doanes, and display my Field Notes with pride!
Eyeballs on 20 different banknotes from 20 different countries. I love how the eyeballs are drawn differently for each bank note's engraving. Photos taken using a version of Kenji Yoshino's wonderful $10 Microscope (see his $10 Microscope Instructable).
Day 2. Starting to find my way around Sketchbook. I found two or three brushes I really like and a few methods for drawing and writing. Sketchbook is by far the best app for creating notes. I've tried Brushes and Adobe Ideas.

The White Stripes had a side show just three hours prior to their main performance. It consisted of one, and only one, note.
I thought it was pretty lame, though everyone else didn't think so.

Fabulous show dudes. Really great to hear you speak again. It's been a while!
It never occurred to my parents to look inside the wrappers.
When I finally pointed out that every confection is wrapped in a love note, there was only once piece of chocolate left.

I finally have received an email that will lead to the NASA contact I've been wanting. Here is part of it.
:: Permission to use your Photoshop Shuttle Reentry Photo
Hello,
First, I would like to comment that your "Normal Shuttle Entry" photo is a beautiful rendering, and I couldn't find anything else even relatively close to its quality! The reason I bring up this photo is my company produces shielding technology for reentry that NASA has shown great interest in, and I am currently writing an article about our material.
I would like to ask for your permission to use this photo in my article, and if the article gets published, include your photo in the magazine article... which would hopefully in turn get NASA's attention like you've mentioned you desire to accomplish and help both of us out....
...Thank you,
-Anthony Palma

Hi, Karolyn,
- that was fun today at Coffeetopia.
- here is the address of the entry image:
www.flickr.com/photos/doneastwest/186004657/in/set-720575...
- i'll just mention that the image is calibrated for a
Macintosh screen, which is brighter than a PC screen.
it would be easy to send them a PC version.
- i would also love to work on the image after
criticism.
- it is presently somewhat simplified- more like a diagram:
- the white on the wing is ok but the white would creep higher on the fuselage than i have shown.
- the blurring of the upper portion of the tail and fuselage is just an effort to show speed.

Hi Don,
I was wondering if I could obtain permission to use your wonderful shuttle graphic (with credit) within a Power Point presentation I am creating on Meteorites. The picture will be used to illustrate the effects of air friction on objects entering our atmosphere. The powerpoint presentation will be used periodically (maybe 2-3 times per year) for education outreach for local science museums, astronomy clubs, and other astronomy / science events. Let me know.
Thank you!

Several months ago, KCRW's Good Food did a segment on absinthe which made me start thinking about a spring garden party to sample it. She mentioned a particular brand, which I scrawled in a Grass Stain Green Field Notes Book, and today it paid off. Browsing the miniatures at the liquor store for treasures to sample, I immediately recognized this bottle as the brand I'd noted.
