The night the power went out, my main worry was that if the power did not come on the next day what would I do with the animals, particularly the cats? We tried asking some friends, but no one responed in the affirmative.
So then I thought "well, maybe I can construct a little cool area for them." I went out and bought a couple battery powered fans and a bag of ice.
And you know what? It was pretty cool (literally) if you were right in front of the fans with the block of ice there.
But I knew it was going to fail when before I was able to get all of the ice in, the ice on the bottom had already started melting. Within an hour, all nine pounds of ice had melted.
So the cats ended up being boarded at the vet for a day. (When we brought the cats in, the vet asked how many days we would need. I hadn't until that moment even considered the idea that the power would remain out more than 24 hours. Boy was I mistaken--though fortunately the power did come back on in the afternoon the next day, so the cats only had to stay one night.)
I've spotted this hard case for headphones at RadioShack store. It's pretty solid (I can even try to sit on it), lightweight, round (it means no extra space consumed) and well-made. Something around $3. Fits any screw-in filters and caps up to 55mm. Can hold up to three filters. That's all I need for my filters I'm using with Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 (UV, Circular polarizer, Neutral density gradual).

114 degrees and no air conditioning in any house. We improvised swim suits and stayed close to the pool.
Three canoes, some hazel, straps and a tarp got put to good use to make a sail boat. It was pretty effective though could have done with slight;y more wind at that point.
In general, this photograph is a rectangle that is crossed by a diagonal, but the diagonal is curved instead of being straight, and it is made up of two lines instead of one.

improvise is a jam night with a difference as musicians, MCs, vocalists and beatboxers jam with our house band, and comedians, actors, poets, dancers and anyone else who is game for a laugh get involved!
Our erstwhile compere Matthew Duffy (AKA Mad Richard) will be scattering lots of fun improvisational games throughout the night for the audience to participate in.
So bring your instruments/your vocal skills/your quick wit/your sense of humour and your friends for a night of true, off the cuff improvisation!
...and best of all it's totally FREE!
