This tool will consist of 14 leds and running on 3 volts.
The leds put into the salt shaker.

black then white are all I see in my infancy. red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me. lets me see.
Printed on Cotton Canvas. Also great fun for room decor for little builders.

The CLCC recently completed and approved our first science planning document titled, CLCC Science Strategy: Mission Alignment, as an initial step toward identifying shared conservation priorities. While the document met its stated objectives, Steering Committee (SC) members and outside reviewers have suggested the next step is to develop a framework for implementation. To carry out this step, SC members approved the use of a process called Structured Decision-Making (SDM). SDM is a formal, prescriptive, values-based method for analyzing a decision by breaking the decision into components. The specific process used in the workshop is called “PrOACT,” which refers to the decision components: Problem, Objectives, Alternatives, Consequences, and Tradeoffs. For the purposes of the CLCC, SDM provides a tool for achieving transparent, purposeful, and collaborative co-production of conservation—specifically, multi-partner landscape conservation design (LCD) for the Caribbean region.
To begin working through PrOACT the SC spent four days in El Yunque National Forest with decision support coaches Angela Romero and Mitch Aid (US FWS), Peter Freeman (USVI Independent Consulant) and Wanda Crespo (Estudio Technicos, Inc).
The objectives of this face to face meeting were to (1) introduce participating SC members to the SDM process so that they are comfortable with the process, its application, and its usefulness; (2) Frame “The Problem” SC members are jointly addressing (i.e., Step 1 of PrOACT); and (3) Develop a set of actionable “Objectives” based on CLCC shared values and priorities (i.e., Step 2 of PrOACT).
Steering Committee members agreed upon the following Decision Statement:
“The Caribbean LCC Steering Committee will develop and implement coordinated, efficient, and effective landscape-scale conservation design and strategy to conserve, restore and sustain ecological and cultural resources and services and human well-being in the Caribbean inside and outside of CLCC jurisdictional boundaries. The CLCC recognizes the following constraints and uncertainties: political and social environments, finances, multiple decision making authorities, diverse values, competing priorities, and climatic and ecological dynamics.”
The CLCC Steering Committee recognized themselves as the focal decision-makers and the organizations they represent as the implementers. The decision timeframe includes a 5-10 year planning horizon, 10-20 year implementation period (to institutionalize LCD), and the impacts of decisions will range from the present to 60 years to quasi-infinite. The group also agreed that the region of interest is the “terrestrial and marine components within the EEZ of the U.S. Caribbean, and Navassa Island, with consideration of relevant drivers, policies and impacts originating in the wider Caribbean region. The wider Caribbean is defined by UNEP.”
The Steering Committee also agreed upon four Fundamental Objectives, which will frame all future collaborative efforts of the CLCC (no particular order):
Maximize use of available operational resources
Maximize public satisfaction and well-being
Maximize the structure and function of aquatic and terrestrial resources
Maximize the integrity of cultural and historic resources
The Steering Committee agreed to create Tiger Teams, or subteams with a specific short-term task, to flesh out specific objectives and indicators for each of the Fundamental objectives.
Questions on this science planning process should be directed to CLCC Science Coordinator Brent Murry.
Sharpening my standard lathe tool. The grinding wheel is rated at 3600 RPM, but I'm only running it at about 1200 so the forces are very much reduced. It only takes one swipe at very low pressure on the tool.
Color body w/strobe trigger--check; B&W body, MF--check; external meter--check; order of wings, gold rush--check. Ready to shoot a band.
The inside of the tool bag I sewed for my husband.
That fabric is so girly, but it could have been worse. I had some really great bright yellow daisy print. He said no to that. heh heh heh
