The Hebrides by Felix Mendelssohn, my high school orchestra is playing and i love it. I play cello and really enjoy making my own music. So i thought I'd mix my two passions...music and photography
Always remember to be thankful. I was told a story today by one of my accounts at work. He owns rental units. He mentioned a lady had just vacated the one unit where a family lived in the one that was attatched to hers. The wife of that family was leaving her husband. There were children involved. Fact is, the youngest boy found the husband first. They came to pick up stuff and the boy came out to the kitchen and said, "Mom, Dads laying down in the bed room. He's wearing a mask". Actually the husband had removed his face with a shotgun. I do not know these people, but after hearing this today, I cannot get that little boy out of my mind. For those so inclined, Pray for the boy who lives in "ENOLA, Pa." that lost his Father in such a selfish manner. Pray for his family.
I smile here in this picture realizing that no matter how bad I think I may have it, My lord loves me and My journey here on Earth is not about me, yet it is about what I can be. I struggle with a lot of things. Things that seem insurmountable. Then out of no where I am reminded in one way or another that nothing is impossible.
Another note to self: Ephesians 5:20. Simple. So simple.
Note the bandspread coil. Have made them for 160,80,and 40mtrs. The trimmer set the top edge of the band.

"That's always seemed so ridiculous to me, that people would want to be around someone because they're pretty. It's like picking your breakfast cereals based on color instead of taste."

Staten Island
The three-story granite and red brick Second Empire style building which occupies a central location on the grounds of the former Coast Guard Station at the foot of Bay Street, St. George, Staten Island. has had a long and distinguished history of government service first as the main office of the Lighthouse Service Depot for the Third Lighthouse District, and later as the Administration Building when the compound became a United States Coast Guard Base.
Well built, of fine design and materials, this building is expressive of the era when, under the direction of Alfred B. Hullett, Supervising Architect of the Treasury Department for nine years from 1865 to 1874 , many important and impressive buildings were built by the federal government. Among these were the old State, War, and Navy Department Building located next to the White House in Washington, D.C., a tour-de force of French Second Empire design, and the huge Second Empire style post offices in New York City and St. Louis, Missouri; the former, located at the foot of City Hall Park, was demolished in 1939 , while the latter, now being handsomely restored, is a designated Landmark of St .Louis. The small but beautiful office building at St. George, Staten lsland, erected for the U.S. Lighthouse Service in 1868-1871, clearly shows that A.B. Hullett gave as much thought and attention to buildings of small scale as to larger ones.
The French Second Empire style office building as completed in 1871, was the square portion which now forms the center section of the structure and it was constructed of the best materials. The foundations and the stone trim are of a pale grey granite liberally streaked with veins of pink and flecked with tiny specks of black. The walls are of red sandstone and hard-pressed red brick of excellent quality, while the mansard roof is covered with dark grey imbricated slates arranged in a hexagonal design - a most striking combination of colors and materials, now concealed beneath white paint. It is interesting to note that when the wings were added in 1901, the original Second Empire design (executed in the same materials) was used throughout except for the windows, where one-aver-one sashes popular at the turn-of-the-century were substituted for the two-aver-four sashes of the 1860s. The foundations up to and including the water table are of rock-faced granite as are the window enframements, the quoins at the corners, the belt course at second floor level and the square stone porch at the main entrance.
The walls of the first story are constructed of random ashlar blocks of red sandstone while those of the second story. Above the granite belt course are of hard-pressed red brick laid in a running bond. Originally, the building presented the same basie arrangement of openings on all four sides. The front having a centered entrance with a single window above and paired windows at the sides on both first and second floors; the rear identical, but without a porch at the entrance; and the sides with the same design, except that all openings were windows. All windows contained two-overfour sashes which are still in place. Each of the four sides of the sloping mansard roof had three metal-framed, flat-topped dormer windows with two-over-four sashes and decorative "Flemish" scrolls at the base where the enframements met the roof at the eaves just above the wide cornice which contained a metal-lined gutter atop a wooden frieze decorated with long and short horizontal wooden panels. There was a small square cupola in the center of the roof to aid in ventilating the building.

I like to surprise my lovely with random little notes scattered 'round the house. Sometimes they take the form of commentary scrawled into the margins of the newspaper left open on the kitchen table. Or a Post-it in his cereal box. This one found its way onto the bathroom mirror.
The other day I decided to spread the Flickr love by writing loads of testimonials for beloved contacts who had none. They've all been sitting around unapproved, which led me to the discovery that Flickr's testimonial notifier is not working, and has not for awhile now. And lo and behold, I also realized there was a really sweet one waiting for ME to approve! D'oh! Who knows how long that's been sitting there, and I felt so rude not acknowledging it til now! So I suggest y'all go to your profiles and click on 'Manage testimonials' on the right hand side... you might have a surprise in store!

This is called subpixel accuracy. Dividing a pixel into smaller subpixels will enhance the smoothness. There are various algorithms to achieve this, and game developers have come up with a more performant bit-shifting technique for inverse square foots to avoid expensive division. Note the jittering on the lower left animation compared to the smooth rendering of the others.
