dSatellite is a site-specific architectural structure that extends the mission of DFLUX (www.dflux.org), a Detroit-based research studio and residency program, further into its community. DFLUX engages its local neighborhood and the general public with creative actions, research, and workshops. In so doing, they hope to reveal and create emergent and sustainable cottage industries. dSatellite was created with the intention of providing future DFLUX participants and local residents with an outpost to engage in various field research. Constructed with foraged building materials, dSatellite merges both the physical and conceptual characteristics of the DFLUX Residency site and a typical nature blind used by naturalists, scientists, photographers and hunters. dSatellite is currently deployed in a completely razed residential neighborhood of Detroit currently referred to as the "field" by local residents and "Renaissance Zone" by real estate developers. A dense urban forest, rich with wildlife, has grown there, only crumbling roads and alleys, debris piles, and public utilities remain as signs of past use.
dSatellite was created during a research residency at DFLUX in Detroit, MI in collaboration with Joseph G. Cruz (http://josephgcruz.com)
Shoreham Sculpture Trail
with The London Group
and Friends. A weekend of site specific art by over 70 artists spread around the village of Shoreham, Kent.
One of the largest sculptire trails the UK has ever seen. Featuring 30 London Group members and invited artists, including many prominent UK sculptors. 76 artists will be exhibiting over 200 sculptures in 26 gardens. The astonishing diversity of the exhibits ranges from the monumental to the ephemeral with works in metal and stone, with interactive work and performance and the Trail will be particularly unusual in the number of site-specific works. The idyllic village of Shoreham Kent, a gem just on the edge of London, is a beautiful place to visit just for itself and in June the gardens of all sizes, many on the river, will be at their best - visitors couldn't wish for more perfect surroundings in which to view sculpture. Most artists will be present to meet visitors during the trail and many will be giving talks. The Trail is curated by London Group President Susan Haire.

The specific name cynosura is a Greek name for the Pole Star, more frequently called Polaris. Cynosura means tail of the dog. More broadly, cynosure means something that strongly attracts attention or guides. Perhaps something on this dragonfly resembles a dog's tail.
Adults dragonflies are between 36-44 mm. Identification of this species, is tricky. Some individuals have large basal spot on hindwings, like Mantled Baskettail, E. semiaquea, but spot does not extend to hindwing. Clear-winged form of Common Baskettail may be indistinguishable in the field from E. costalis and E. spinigera. With some exceptions, Epitheca can be a difficult genus to work with in the field in terms of identifying species, but given this individuals markings and the range of the various members of the genus, E. cynosura is the most likely identification.
Found throughout eastern North America at lakes, ponds, marshes, and slow-moving rivers. One of the first dragonflies of spring. May fly as early as January in southeastern states. Flight extends to August, but most are about in spring, flight usually lasting about five weeks. May to August in Canada. Additional fall flight in Florida.
Predatory on other insects as all dragonflies are. May feed in swarms on such prey as winged termites.
Males patrol a patch of shoreline, about 3-10 meters long (as this individual did). Peak patrolling is in late afternoon.
In specific, Holy Week is the week just before Easter that extends from Palm Sunday until Holy Saturday and marks the last week of Lent. It has earned the name 'Holy', according to the Orthodox Church, due to the significant events that take place for Christianity in regard to the sufferings of Jesus Christ.
Saturday evening is filled with the anticipation of celebrating Easter Sunday. In some areas, people begin to gather in the churches and squares in cities, towns and villages by 11pm for the Easter liturgies. A few minutes before midnight, all the lights are turned off and the priest exits the altar holding candles lit by the Holy Light, which is distributed to everyone inside and outside the church. At midnight, the priest exits the church and announces the resurrection of Jesus. Many people carry large white candles called lambada, and the church bells toll as the priests announce “Christ is Risen!” at midnight. Each person in the crowd replies with a similarly joyous response.

There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.
We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.
I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn’t photograph them.

composition in favour of services might be indicative of this process at the macro level. But specific examples abound. We have state-of-the-art corporate run expensive hospitals, nursing homes and spas for the rich, but not enough money to control malaria and T.B. which require inexpensive treatment. So they continue to kill the largest numbers. Lack of sanitation and clean drinking water transmit deadly diseases especially to small children which could be prevented at little cost, while bottled water of various brands multiply for those who can afford. Private schools for rich kids often have monthly fees that are higher than the annual income of an average unskilled Indian worker, while the poor often have to be satisfied with schools without teachers, or class rooms. .
Over time an increasingly irreversible production structure in favour of the rich begins to consolidate itself. Because the investments embodied in the specific capital goods created to produce luxuries cannot easily be converted to producing basic necessities (the luxury hotel or spa cannot be converted easily to a primary health centre in a village etc). And yet, it is the logic of the market to direct investments towards the most productive and profitable sectors for the efficient allocation of resources. The price mechanism sends signals to guide this allocation, but the prices that rule are largely a consequence of the growing unequal distribution of income in the society. The market becomes a bad master when the distribution of income is bad. .
There are insidious consequences of such a composition of output biased in favour of the rich that our liberalised market system produces. It is highly energy, water and other non- reproducible resources intensive, and often does unacceptable violence to the environment. We only have to think of the energy and material content of air-conditioned malls, luxury hotels and apartments, air travels, or private cars as means of transport. These are no doubt symbols of world class cities in a poor country, by diverting resources from the country side where most live. It creates a black hole of urbanization with a giant appetite for primary non-reproducible resources. Many are forced to migrate to cities as fertile land is diverted to non- agricultural use, water and electricity are taken away from farms in critical agricultural seasons to supply cities, and developmental projects displaces thousands. Hydroelectric power from the big dams is transmitted mostly to corporate industries, and a few posh urban localities, while the nearby villages are left in darkness. Peasants even close to the cities do not get electricity or water to irrigate their land as urban India increasingly gobbles up these resources. Take the pattern of water use. According to the Comptroller and Auditor General report released to the public on 30th March 2007, Gujarat increased the allocation of Narmada waters to industry fivefold during 2006, eating into the share of drought affected villages. Despite many promises made to villagers, water allocation stagnated at 0.86 MAF (million acres feet), and even this is being cut. Water companies and soft drink giants like Coca Cola sink deeper to take out pure ground water as free raw material for their products. Peasants in surrounding areas pay, because they cannot match the technology or capital cost. Iron ore is mined out in Jharkhand, Chattisgarh and Orissa leaving tribals without home or livelihood.

Alternatives in Industrialization .
(Economic and Political Weekly 05 May 2007) .
A remarkable convergence has taken place among major political parties in India around the issue of industrialization. The traditional Left is converging rapidly with the Right, and irrespective of their stated political colours, all the major parties in the parliament are merging into a colourless homogeneous mass, and a common economic agenda. Isnt it Lenin who had said somewhere that economics is nothing but concentrated politics? By that criterion, political parties are now almost identical in their concentrated politics, their differences carefully restricted to political rhetoric to keep the show going. The result is mind boggling double talk. In so far as the traditional Left is concerned, first Singur and then Nandigram drove home the point that the left politicians think the same way as the dream team of economic policy makers at the centre, who live constantly on the oxygen provided to them by the World Bank, the IMF and the Asian Development Bank. The cultural nationalists of Hindutva variety become ferociously aware of their culture only when it comes to Ram Mandir or Vande Mataram, but surrender gladly to foreign multinationals. Congress has a remarkably short memory about the Sikh massacre of 1984. The left parties breathe fire about the Gujarat massacre of 2002, while BJP covers it up with false propaganda and manipulation of the State machinery. Then Nandigram massacre happens in 2007, and Advani compares it with Jallianwalabagh conveniently forgetting Gujarat, while CPM leaders and its faithful intellectuals shirk responsibility, calling it an unfortunate incident that happened accidentally. The killing of 13 tribals in Kalinganagar in 2006 by the police bears an uncanny parallel. The tribals were refusing to hand over their land to the same Tatas in Kalinganagar, just as in Singur the peas-ants are resisting and in Nandigram they have resisted. Chronological surveys of field reports in all these cases make clear that these were premeditated actions by the State authorities to test the waters, and see how far they can go in pushing their version of industrialisation. It is even justified by blaming those who oppose such policies as anti- industry and anti-progress. .
And yet, industrialization per se is not the issue; instead the disagreement is over the answers to three interrelated questions that lie at the heart of any process of industrialization: .
(1)Who is the central actor driving the industrialization process? .
(2)What is the sectoral commodity composition of output produced by industrial growth? .
(3) And finally, who loses and who wins in this process? .
Briefly, the answers to them define the quality of industrialization. .
We have much more control over the quality of industrialization now than we had in the nineteenth century. There are various ways of industrializing as we know from the experiences not only of early capitalism and centralized bureaucratic socialism, but .

Ambling out of Jaisalmer train station in late morning, we were immediately accosted by the throngs of drivers – mostly working for specific hotels – who were trying to pick us up. Since I’d booked a room at the Roop Mahal, this wasn’t an issue. It took a minute to find the guy, but he was there to drive us the whole 1-2 km to the hotel, which was at the base of the fort on the west side.
The biggest reason to come to Jaisalmer, the Golden City (since most places are primarily built of sandstone) is to see the fort, which is on a bit of a hill overlooking an otherwise flat desert. As it’s in the desert, the temperatures in the day, even in late September, were close to 40 degrees Celsius (a little over 100F).
According to Lonely Planet India, the fort was built in 1156 by the Rajput ruler Jaisal and reinforced by subsequent rulers. It “was the focus of a number of battles between the Bhatis, the Mughals of Delhi and the Rathores of Jodhpur.”
Nowadays, it’s a living fort. Jaisalmer Fort has plenty of residents, restaurants, souvenir stands, havelis (old-style housing with ornate architecture: carved stone doorways, lattice screens, balconies, and turrets). The havelis are often hotels now, and almost every hotel here has a rooftop restaurant to enjoy the surrounding view. Our hotel, the Roop Mahal, also had a rooftop restaurant where I ate a few times. The food was…not great, but certainly not bad.
In addition to the havelis, there are also quite a few temples. Specifically, there are seven Jain temples (that you can tour for 150 rupees/15 RMB/$2.50USD). These temples were visually quite attractive inside – some more than others – and also had plenty of worshippers coming in and out. I was impressed by the intricacy of the details and sandstone carving, the intimacy of the art, and the way natural light was used in the temples. I don’t believe tripods were allowed inside the temple, which made a lot of shooting quite difficult, but not impossible. The only other rule is that you have to take your shoes off outside and pay someone (usually about 100 rupee) to “watch” your shoes.
After having a meal in the fort (and, excitedly, finding a spice shop where I bought the first of many Indian spices to bring back to China with me), my travel partner arranged for us to go out to the desert and ride camels. (The hotelier also offered something similar, but was a bit expensive.)
Later in the day, around 5:00, if I recall correctly, a guy came to pick us up at the hotel in a jeep and four of us – me, my travel partner, and two Israeli women – started our drive out to Sam, about 50 km west of Jaisalmer (and less than 100 km – maybe less than 50 – from the Pakistani border to the west).
En route, we had to make a few required stops (per our drivers). The first place was so forgettable that I can’t even recall the name of it or what it was. The second place was just to see a small village (really, two buildings) and a whole lot of kids running up to you begging for money in exchange for pictures.
After that, we finally made it out to the desert, where we rode camels for about half an hour and then stopped at a rather random place where we were eventually given a home-cooked Indian meal, vegetarian, that consisted of dal, naan, and a few curries. It was delicious, and had to be eaten completely in Indian style (no utensils of any kind).
While watching the sunset and the subsequent moonrise, we eventually bade our Israeli friends farewell (as they were spending the night in the desert) and headed back to town. Along the way, I caught a glimpse of a late night cricket match, and it was the only time during this trip I’d see that. When we got back to the hotel, we just needed to wait there for an hour or two before they were kind enough to drive us to the train station around 11:00 p.m. so we could catch our midnight train to Jodhpur…the Blue City.
Formulated for the specific requirements of Rotax engines, Aero Cool 180° transfers heat efficiently from the engine even at elevated temperatures. Because the onset of even localised boiling is eliminated, this coolant works very well in systems where cooling performance is marginal and gives real peace of mind in hot weather or slow traffic conditions.
The unique waterless properties offer many advantages over traditional coolants:
•Stops Corrosion - Water-based coolants actively cause corrosion within the cooling system. Our advanced waterless formulation is 100% non-corrosive and contains corrosion inhibitors to protect from left over water residue.
•180°C Protection - The unique properties enable efficient heat transfer up to 180°C. Eliminate problems such as Boil-over and After-boil and protect against cylinder liner pitting, metal distortion and pre-ignition.
•Lower Pressures - Due to the high boiling point the cooling system operates at significantly lower pressures. Not only does this ensure a safer system, it prevents unnecessary stress on hoses and other other components.
•Antifreeze - All year round protection. Evans waterless coolants protect down to -40°C.
•4 Life - Evans Waterless Coolant is proven to last the life of the engine.
•Non-toxic - Formulated with our patented DeTox™ additive

In this photograph I had my roommate hold the mug in front of her as if she is enjoying a cup of hot chocolate in her cozy pajamas. The cup looks really big at this angle and portrays that the mug is the important object in the image. I also used natural light from outside to give this image beauty.

To verify a roofing contractor's license, it is crucial to contact the licensing authority responsible for issuing and regulating permits in your area. This authority will be able to confirm the contractor's license status, including its validity, expiration date, and any disciplinary actions against the contractor.
4. Review Insurance Coverage:
In addition to verifying the license, reviewing the roofing contractor's insurance coverage is essential. A reliable contractor should have general liability insurance and worker's compensation insurance to protect against potential accidents or damages during the project.

Red Flags to Watch for During License Verification

These red flags include expired licenses, which could imply that the qualified roofer no longer complies with state regulations. Disciplinary actions and revoked licenses are warning signs suggesting that the licensee has violated rules or engaged in unprofessional conduct. Fraudulent documents related to roof installation are another red flag, as they indicate dishonesty or deception. Additionally, unresolved property damage claims against the licensee raise concerns about their performance or customer satisfaction. These red flags should be carefully considered during the license verification process to ensure that a residential property roofing professional is legitimate and trustworthy.
Importance of Choosing a Licensed Roofer
Choosing a roofer license is of utmost importance for roofing projects. A licensed roofer ensures that the job is performed by professional contractors professionally and competently, providing peace of mind to homeowners.

Regular training is necessary for keeping up-to-date with new techniques and technologies, enabling roofers to deliver their best work. Continuous communication with clients, suppliers, and team members is critical for a smooth and efficient workflow. It allows any concerns, changes, or updates to be addressed promptly. Frequent inspections throughout the project ensure that any issues or mistakes are identified and resolved promptly, ensuring the overall quality of the work. By following these steps and best practices, roofing professionals can maintain and improve the quality of their work, enhancing their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Protection Against Liability and Risk

dSatellite is a site-specific architectural structure that extends the mission of DFLUX (www.dflux.org), a Detroit-based research studio and residency program, further into its community. DFLUX engages its local neighborhood and the general public with creative actions, research, and workshops. In so doing, they hope to reveal and create emergent and sustainable cottage industries. dSatellite was created with the intention of providing future DFLUX participants and local residents with an outpost to engage in various field research. Constructed with foraged building materials, dSatellite merges both the physical and conceptual characteristics of the DFLUX Residency site and a typical nature blind used by naturalists, scientists, photographers and hunters. dSatellite is currently deployed in a completely razed residential neighborhood of Detroit currently referred to as the "field" by local residents and "Renaissance Zone" by real estate developers. A dense urban forest, rich with wildlife, has grown there, only crumbling roads and alleys, debris piles, and public utilities remain as signs of past use.
dSatellite was created during a research residency at DFLUX in Detroit, MI in collaboration with Joseph G. Cruz (http://josephgcruz.com)
