This is my 4' aluminum tree I brought into work to chip in for my share of the decorating. I found the ornaments at the Brass Armadillo antique store in Des Moines.
All i have to color correct photos with at work is Irfanview. I have to say that for FREE it is capable of doing most of what I need other than perhaps a good size-down alrorithm.
Catchy idea, huh? Having worked an entire career in the System Safety field I cannot help but notice things that are wrong, especially if they can contribute to injury or property damage.
While on a meetup with the Flickr Club San Antonio Saturday, I saw this cable connected with clamps. I mentioned to Mark (Copasetic on Flickr) what the problem was and why. He suggested I photo it and post. So, here it is.
The title above is a catchy phrase that helps one remember how to attach clamps to wirerope. There are 3 parts to the clamp: the nuts, the U-bolt, and the saddle. The "live" part of the rope is that part that leads to the load. The "dead" part is just the end and supports nothing. This one is incorrectly attached. If you put much load on this rope, the gripping part (the U-bolt) is on the live wire. The dead end will then just slip through the clamp as if it were a slip-knot; thereby, releasing the load. In this case, though, there was a minimal amount of "load." Otherwise, I would have brought it to the attention of the manager in charge of this facility.
A point of interest (to me at least) is that I have done that many times and I can promise you that every manager I have ever brought problems to their attention has responded VERY Negatively! So, I seldom mention things unless it would result in injury. If it will just result in damage to property or equipment, I let it go and it can become a learning experience for the business, unless I am being paid to do so.
As a side note, notice the end of the cable apparently has been severed by a cutting torch. That could be a signal that other parts of the wire-rope has been heated which can alter the tensile strength of the rope, causing weak segments.
Wow, this description is way more than anyone wants to know. LOL

I kinda like how the lighting is on this one. I can thank all those happy little clouds floating by...

In a debate with Jean-Claude Juncker on Tuesday morning, MEPs took stock of the work and achievements of the outgoing Commission.
Mr Juncker reflected on progress in the Commission’s priority areas, including growth, jobs and investment, giving a new impetus to Europe and engagement with citizens, the focus on big issues and cuts to the number of new proposals.
He expressed disappointment that the banking union was not concluded – which he sees as key to fighting future crises - but listed successes such as the pillar of social rights and posted workers rules as important steps in providing dignity to workers.
Relations with Africa and 15 new trade agreements were mentioned, among others, as successes. To him, however, the biggest success is that peace has been maintained in Europe. He called on MEPs to keep up the fight for Europe and against “stupid” nationalism.

Visit to Cincinnati, Ohio on October 9, 2013. Marsha and her mom and I spent most of the day at the Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal. The great rotunda is the terminal's primary public space. At its widest point, the rotunda is 180 feet across and 106 feet high, today the second largest half dome in the world (after the Sydney Opera House).
The curved walls of the rotunda showcase two wonderful murals, which are actually glass mosaics created by Winold Reiss. For the two murals, Reiss created two timelines; one of the history of the United States from the Native Americans to the ‘modern’ citizen and the other (seen in my photo) of Cincinnati, from settlement to the ‘modern’ period. In these two murals Reiss planted several real life figures, which including his brother, a local engineer, a construction worker at the terminal and three Blackfoot Native Americans. Reiss preferred to work from the real thing, not creating characters from scratch. See the full story here: The glass storybook

I work from home full time and have done for the past four years now. This is my current 'office'. It's a mess. In the background you can see one of my many wargames shelves (the others are down in the garage) and the big plastic boxes in which I store my femme clothes. I could probably build some kind of wardrobe solution in that corner, but to be honest I doubt I could fit in enough hanging space for everything.

This is where I do my best edublogging from My Home , mostly reading from my Bloglines.

I took this photo about an hour ago and they finally got the trapped victim out just a couple of minutes ago. These are Menlo Park firefighters attempting to jimmy the elevator door open to get the man trapped inside out. The elevator got stuck between the second and third floors of my building at work.
My mom and I swap trades every now and then. I make her a letterhead and she sews me a work apron. SWEET!

heading home from work recently, view down from Southbridge to the Cowgate at the lower part of the Old Town. This is an entire block which was destroyed by a huge fire about a decade ago. Arguments have raged since then about what sort of building would replace the old one, some architects arguing it is a rare chance for a modern building in the area, others (rightly, I think) saying there are plenty of other parts of the city where you can build a modern construction, but the heart of the historic Old Town isn't one of them.
Like many parts of the multi-level Edinburgh from the bridge you might have thought this was a two or three storey building opening onto the street but a glimpse down beneath the bridge (which is lined with buildings so many don't realise it is a bridge) and see more levels descending beneath. Edinburgh is good at playing tricks like this! The old building was home to a major Fringe venue and many artist's studios on lower levels and the university higher up, everything ruined by the fire, sadly. Improvised these quick shots on the way home from work, dark here by half past four now, jammed the camera in the railings of the bridge, angling it down and hoping it would hold it steady enough to get a couple of reasonable shots, clicked several, most useless but these three came out not too bad, considering
