Biologists mainly use two sampling techniques when collecting American Shad; electrofishing and push trawls. A push trawl works similarly as a standard trawl, but instead of the net being dragged behind a boat a winch is used to lower a net in front of the boat.
Fading sunlight gleems off the well-worn blades as a fleet of mighty Cat D8K's (and one D8H probably used as a standby unit) stand at the ready to bulldoze fields, farmland, roads, and anything else that stands in their way.
They sit in the old Strata Aggregates lot off Countryside
Drive facing north, the direction in which land needs to be cleared for the future Ontario Highway 410 North Extension that will run right through upper Brampton and into Valleywood and Caledon.
The D8K is both a classic and smart looking machine, and very capable: built by the thousands in the 70's and 80's as a medium-to-large bulldozer by construction machinery giant Caterpillar, many of them are still working on projects big and small all over the world.
So honored to be included in this great book Push Paper curated by Jamie Zollars. Humbling and inspiring to see my work among that of these amazing paper artist.
Taiichi Ohno is the engineering genius behind the famed Toyota Production System (TPS), known under various names: Lean Manufacturing, Just-In-Time Manufacturing, and Pull Manufacturing.
I like the term "pull" because it's very simple and easy to understand in contrast to "push" manufacturing. Ohno describes it using a hill and gravity as a metaphor. In a push system, it's as if the factory sits at the top of a hill, producing cars as fast and efficiently as possible. As cars leave the factory, they roll downhill to dealers. When demand is unlimited this is not a problem, because customers buy the cars as quickly as they are made. This was the case in the days of the Ford Model-T: The demand for affordable, functional cars was virtually unlimited. But when demand shrinks, cars pile up at the dealership, and dealers have to reduce prices to the point where they, and the manufacturer, lose money.
The U.S. has a large enough population that American car-makers could survive with a push manufacturing system for many years. And in the 1950s U.S. car makers were feeling no pain.
But Japan's much-smaller post-war population had much more variable demands. A factory might need to rapidly switch from making one kind of car to another, or from making cars to trucks, or ambulances, depending on the demand.
This is why Ohno and his fellow engineers at Toyota developed the pull production model, which was driven not by the factory but by customer demand. In pull manufacturing, the dealership sits at the top of the hill, and when a customer buys or orders a car, the dealer orders a car from the factory which delivers it "just in time."
In our increasingly service-oriented economy, customer demands are increasingly variable. We are moving from a push-oriented world, where manufacturers set the agenda, to a pull-oriented world, where the agenda is set by customers.
This has profound implications for the way companies organize and manage work; implications that are only beginning to be understood in many industries.
This was taken at Rialto Beach near La Push, Washington. It has been awhile since we were out there and we were surprised by how dynamic the wave action was. Really gorgeous spot.
As I was stooping down to take this photo, a woman passing by said "there are people like that." I asked her what she meant, and she said there are people who continue to push themselves up and grow despite hardships. I loved that she stopped me to tell me that.
I agree with her. I grew up on the Hudson River in NYC and used to take such inspiration in watching the river flow strong despite the garbage in it -- garbage I could see, and garbage I had heard about (chemicals).
I love moments that show that nature can't be tamed.
While at the Cantor Center last Sunday, I became an unwitting foil in an evil plot to confuse the general public. I read Pull, but Pushed. I was trying to open the door for someone who was attempting to exit a gallery when it happened. And all I could say to her when I finally got the door open was "I guess they meant the other pull." I felt like such a fool.
Is it me, or are these labels just plain wrong?
Pushing the boundaries of minimalism once again. May be too minimal for most, but not for me.

The Action Hero Pro does 200 one-armed push-ups before having a bowl of gravel for breakfast and then punching Chuck Norris in the groin.
For fun.
