Farmhouse Table Craft Space




Farmhouse Table Craft Space





I thought I would snap some photos to share with all of you around Ravens Feather Studio this afternoon. I just made a wonderful, and maybe just a little splurge, on an amazing old farm house table that is painted the most beautiful shade of Robins Egg Blue! It is exactly what I had been looking for to replace my old plastic fold down craft table! I was searching and searching for a table that was wood, old and shabby, but sturdy as it would get used alot! This one is perfect because it has two fold down sides so that when I need a larger crafting space, it is available. I just love it. I had the most perfect piece of Irish pottery to place on top of it, a beautiful piece from one of our trips to Ireland to hold some paint brushes, and a great chamber candle holder (LOVE that) that is metal and painted white.

Skylight Blinds And Shades





skylight blinds and shades






    skylight
  • A window installed in a roof or ceiling

  • Daylighting is the practice of placing windows or other openings and reflective surfaces so that during the day natural light provides effective internal lighting.

  • Light emanating from the sky

  • a window in a roof to admit daylight

  • Skylight is a play by British dramatist David Hare. It opened at the Royal National Theatre, Cottesloe, directed by Richard Eyre, in 1995. The production then moved to the Wyndham's Theatre for a short run from 13 February 1996, after winning the Laurence Olivier Award for the 1995 season.





    blinds
  • The blinds are forced bets posted by players to the left of the dealer button in flop-style poker games. The number of blinds is usually two, but can be one or three.

  • window coverings, especially vertical blinds, wood blinds, roller blinds, pleated blinds

  • Deprive (someone) of understanding, judgment, or perception

  • Confuse or overawe someone with something difficult to understand

  • Cause (someone) to be unable to see, permanently or temporarily

  • A window blind is a type of window covering which is made with slats of fabric, wood, plastic or metal that adjust by rotating from an open position to a closed position by allowing slats to overlap. A roller blind does not have slats but comprises a single piece of material.





    shades
  • (shade) shadow: cast a shadow over

  • Darken or color (an illustration or diagram) with parallel pencil lines or a block of color

  • (shade) relative darkness caused by light rays being intercepted by an opaque body; "it is much cooler in the shade"; "there's too much shadiness to take good photographs"

  • Screen from direct light

  • Cover, moderate, or exclude the light of

  • sunglasses: spectacles that are darkened or polarized to protect the eyes from the glare of the sun; "he was wearing a pair of mirrored shades"

Solar Shading





solar shading






    shading
  • A layer of paint or material used to provide shade, esp. for plants

  • The darkening or coloring of an illustration or diagram with parallel lines or a block of color

  • a gradation involving small or imperceptible differences between grades

Building façades and thermal comfort: The impacts of climate, solar shading, and glazing on the indoor thermal environment


Building façades and thermal comfort: The impacts of climate, solar shading, and glazing on the indoor thermal environment



There is currently a trend of designing new commercial buildings with large glazed facades. Maintaining comfort in the perimeter zones of these buildings is difficult due to their transmittance of solar radiation and exposure to cold outdoor air temperature. Designing these buildings with high-performance facades, however, can improve energy performance, provide a high-quality thermal and visual environment, and reduce thermal loads. This book presents an experimental and simulation study of the indoor thermal environment of a perimeter zone office with glass facade and solar shading device. The study investigates the impact of climate, glazing type, and shading properties on thermal comfort. By recognizing comfort as a key consideration in building design from the initial design stage through to building occupancy, it can be ensured that new high-performance and passive solar buildings are not only aesthetically pleasing and energy-efficient, but also comfortable and enjoyable places to work and live.

Solar Power Bank - Pb/Acid & LiFePO4 Hybrid Pack




Solar Power Bank - Pb/Acid & LiFePO4 Hybrid Pack





I robbed my original Solar Power Bank, for the batteries in the Electric Pusher Trailer and the Electric Riding Mower. I had to come up with another battery bank, so I combined some Pb/Acid and LiFePO4 batteries.

I'm absolutely amazed that the 12.8 volt nominal LiFePO4 flexpack cells are staying balanced during both charge and discharge even though they don't have BEQ1-LiFePO4 regulators on the cells. NOTE: This particular LiFePO4 flex cell pack was originally installed in the E-Eclipse as the aux battery for lights, fans etc. Being charged with a standard dumb charger from Harbor Freight, the cells overcharged, and expanded like a balloon, since there were no BEQ1-LiFePO4 regulators on them to keep them safe. I revived them with the compression recovery method, and am using them here in the Solar Power Bank. I'm sure they aren't quite as good as new, but they do get me through the entire evening/night with according to the SOC meter plenty of charge left.

I knew from the Electric Eclipse's hybrid traction pack, two LiFePO4 cells wired in series, and then paralleled onto each 6volt Golf Cart battery worked fine and never overcharged, but was unsure if 4ea LiFePO4 cells wired in series, and then paralleled would do the same, yet so far after over 2 weeks, they are working great.

Spatio-temporal dynamics of solar shading for a parametrically defined roof system [An article from: Energy & Buildings]






This digital document is a journal article from Energy & Buildings, published by Elsevier in 2004. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
The evaluation of shading devices is generally carried out using a sequence of shadow-pattern images showing the progression of solar penetration for particular times of the day or year. This approach can reveal when solar penetration may occur, say at the summer solstice, but it cannot give a quantitative measure of the degree and likelihood of solar penetration over a representative period of a full year. This paper describes a new image-based technique to quantify the effectiveness of shading devices. It is founded on predictions of direct solar irradiation using hourly meteorological data for a full year. In addition to numerical output, the technique produces synoptic images that reveal the spatial and temporal variation of solar irradiation. There are no practical limits on the scene geometry and buildings with thousands of individual shading elements can be evaluated. The technique is designed to be both fast and highly scalable making it suitable for the evaluation of a large number of design variants. This is demonstrated in the paper using a parametrically defined model of a complex roof shading system based on the Changi Airport Terminal 3 design. The 3600 fins that comprise the roof shading system were generated using a parametric scheme where the fin orientation has a random component. A total of 42 design variants of the roof shading system were evaluated using the new technique.

Soundproof Drapes





soundproof drapes






    soundproof
  • Make (a room or building) resistant to the passage of sound

  • Soundproof was a 2006 BBC television drama, directed by Edmund Coulthard and written by Joe Fisher. It starred Joseph Mawle and Susan Lynch as a profoundly deaf man accused of murder and his sign-language interpreter. It was conducted partly in sign-language and subtitles.

The Dorilton




The Dorilton





Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States

This French Beaux-Arts style apartment house, located diagonally across Broadway from The Ansonia and harmonizing with it, evokes memories of Paris. It was erected by Hamilton Weed, a builder, in 1900-1902 and was designed by the architectural firm of Janes & Leo. They also designed the row of houses on the south side of 105th Street in the Riverside - West 105th Street Historic District and many notable town houses in Manhattan.

Architecturally the Dorilton is one of the finest Beaux-Arts buildings in Manhattan and displays exceptionally handsome detail. It is twelve stories high, built of brick and limestone, and expresses the theme, popular at that time, of base, shaft and capital, reminiscent of the column.

The base consists of two stories of rusticated limestone surmounted by one floor of alternating bands of brick and limestone, crowned by a balustrade carried on heavy brackets which are paired for vertical emphasis at certain points, above which rises the higher shaft portion of brick trimmed with limestone cornerstones, or quoins, thus establishing three vertical pavilions expressed by the greater height of their roof lines.

This portion is, in turn, crowned by the ninth floor which repeats the horizontal banding of brick and limestone which is also found directly beneath it. Above this a transitional floor, emphasizing the vertical, forms a base for the capital, or top portion of the building, a very high two-and-a-half story convex mansard roof replete with copper crestings at the tops of the three corner pavilion sections.

Tall chimneys, flanking the courtyard and at the outer extremities of the building, with their horizontal banding and paired brackets supporting cornices at their tops, lend a note of elegance to the skyline.

The most striking feature of the Dorilton is its deep entrance courtyard facing 71st Street which is entered through a handsome triple gateway.

The side portions of this gateway, with their high iron gates, once served as a U-shaped carriage access drive while the low central gateway was for pedestrians. Adding dramatic character to the entrance courtyard is the flying three-centered arch which connects the wings of the building on either side of it at ninth floor level.

The gateway consists of four limestone columns, surmounted by balls. The columns support the high wrought-iron gates with top crestings and enframe the low square-headed pedestrian access gate. This is surmounted by a shield supported by two cherubs which is kept below the cornice caps of the columns so that the four balls rise above it and dominate all three gates.

The arch at ninth floor level has a soaring quality which is visibly stabilized by the fact that the unusually wide quoins rise up to the spring-line of the arch and are terminated by large shields which have the appearance of corbels supporting the arch.

The arch itself has deep voussoir stones with a keystone at the apex. The top surface of the arch is horizontal and aligns with the above the ninth floor windows, thus tying it to the wings of the building.

On the Broadway side an exceptionally attractive feature is the central metal bay window., enframed with stone, extending up from the fourth floor through the eighth and crowned by an arch.

To further emphasize the bay it is flanked at its base by two greater than life-size female figures whose handsome draped clothing enhances the motion expressed in their bodies.

Because of its large rooms and soundproof construction, the Dorilton has always been popular as a residence for artists and musicians.

Schermerhorn Symphony Center Fountain




Schermerhorn Symphony Center Fountain





The Schermerhorn Symphony Center is a symphony center in downtown Nashville, Tennessee. It opened with its first concert in the Laura Turner Concert Hall on September 9, 2006. Its opening night gala, conducted by Leonard Slatkin and featuring Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer, Zakir Hussain, Frederica von Stade and Janice Chandler-Eteme, was broadcast live on PBS affiliates throughout the state. The main affiliate, Nashville's WNPT, celebrated the occasion by presenting the event in high definition, the station's first HD telecast. A selection from the complete concert was broadcast on the NPR program Performance Today, on September 15, 2006.
Ground was broken for construction of the Center on December 3, 2003.
The Center is named in honor of Kenneth Schermerhorn, who was the music director and conductor of the Nashville Symphony Orchestra from 1983 until his death in 2005. The center was named before his death.

At the center of the Schermerhorn Symphony Center is the 30,000 square feet (2,800 m?), 1,872-seat Laura Turner Concert Hall, which is home to the Orchestra. Modeled after the "shoe box design" of storied concert halls such as the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Musikverein in Vienna, the Hall is one of only a few such venues in the world to feature natural lighting, which streams in through 30 soundproof, double-paned windows that ring its upper walls. Intricate symbolic motifs appear throughout the Hall and the rest of the Center, including irises (the Tennessee state flower), horseshoes (a tribute to the late Laura Turner's love of horses) and coffee beans (representing Nashville's Cheek family of Maxwell House fame).
The Center's neoclassical exterior belies the technological and acoustical advances embodied inside. For example, the orchestra level seats are mounted on several motorized wagons that can be driven forward and lowered through the floor on spiral lifts, revealing an ornate Brazilian cherry and hickory parquet floor and enabling the Hall to be converted from a concert hall into a ballroom in approximately two hours. Further, dozens of motorized acoustic drapes and panels can be quickly adjusted to predetermined positions in order to accommodate many styles of acoustic and amplified music. Finally, those inside the Hall are spared the intrusion of the inevitable downtown noises by an acoustical isolation joint that encircles the entire Hall and prevents sound waves from traveling into or out of the Hall.
The design architect is David M. Schwarz / Architectural Services of Washington, D.C., with Earl Swensson Associates of Nashville as architect of record.
