Yup. Thank you.

I don't recall whether it was Richard Nixon or Henry Kissinger who said it back in the early 1970s, but said it one of them did: "No American will ever have to pay more than $1 for a gallon of gasoline!" (or words to that effect).

LOL

They place an order & everyone, but you, is on hiatus. It sounds like they plan to return to the project.

Sounds like they're "reviewing the situation".

This morning I went for a walk, and this is what I saw:

Spring azure puddle party

Canyon Towhee

Horned lizard

This horned lizard ran right under my foot and was lucky it didn't get stepped on. I squealed like a little girl.

DR Laura why do your photos always come out so sharp and clear? Is it just that you have a better camera than I do or is it how you post them?

John G. · « **Reply #68 on:** March 03, 2011, 04:55:34 PM »

Great photos, Laura. I needed them after all the reading I've had to do today.

Laura · « **Reply #69 on:** March 03, 2011, 04:59:40 PM »

Well, Jane, I only post the photos that turn out. There's my secret!

Laura · « **Reply #70 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:07:27 PM »

I got down on the ground for the butterflies, I took eight out-of-focus shots of the bird (and one in-focus) before it flew away, and I stood up and used the zoom lens for the lizard -- when I tried to get down on the ground, it zipped away.

Jane · « **Reply #71 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:09:45 PM »

But even when my photos are clear on my computer by the time I size them for posting they become somewhat blurry & pixelated(sp?).

Jane · « **Reply #72 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:11:25 PM »

I don't doubt your photos are better than mine to begin with. I just want mine better when I post them.

Laura · « **Reply #73 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:16:06 PM »

I bought a better camera than I had last time, Jane. But I often got lucky with my pocket camera. You need a subject that will sit still, get close up, and use the macro lens.

so today at lunch we all were talking about what we had for dinner last night - of the 5 of us sitting around the table , 2 had had french toast!!

LOL I don't think I have a macro lens-don't even know what one is. Sherlock rarely sits still.

How do you size your photos for posting? Do you do anything to make them sharper?

Laura · « **Reply #77 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:38:40 PM »

I upload them to Flickr, and then copy and paste the link here. Jose told me how.

Laura · « **Reply #78 on:** March 03, 2011, 05:39:08 PM »

Look for a flower icon on the camera. That's the macro.

I haven't wanted to do that but maybe it is time I learn how. Thanks.

I found it and showed it to Keith. All we need to do is remember this next time we want to take a close up photo.

Good Evening!

Greetings from Atlanta!

This is the first time in 36 hours that I have turned on my MacBook.

In other news...

My trip down to Atlanta was relatively uneventful. I was very happy that it wasn't too cold in NYC yesterday morning so that I wouldn't have to wear my winter coat down here since it's currently in the mid-60s and supposed to stay that way the rest of the week.

SETC is back in a hotel that we were at a few years ago, but in the meantime, they have completely refurbished some areas, and reconfigured the lobby area. It actually looks pretty snazzy. Alas, eight elevators still aren't enough for 2500 people who happen to have similar convention schedules. *But they did give permission to the convention staff - myself included - to use the service elevators. That's been a very nice perk.

Otherwise, so far, so good. Today's 160 auditionees were a good group, and the office even scheduled clusters of "acting only" auditions so that I would get extended breaks within the groups. Two more days to go.

DR Jose I hope you don't need your winter coat when you return. Are you in a refurbished room?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #88 on:** March 03, 2011, 06:10:41 PM »

This is a really cool site. It's a webcam of a bald eagle's nest in Decorah Iowa. Right now you can see the eagle sleeping with the night vision camera. today I saw the three eggs in the nest. It's pretty cool

DR Cillaliz - the eagle cam is very cool!

Yesterday, I saw many interesting flying things from the huge windows in my 7th floor hospital room. Of course, there were the CareFlight helicopters, but I also saw one of Dayton's famous peregrine falcons soaring over the main entrance plaza. And I had a direct view toward Wright Patterson Air Force Base, where yesterday must have been "let's practice take-offs and landings" day in the C-130 class. Those big planes were coming and going all day long.
