Acid Mine Drainage ickCategory: home
More photos from the not-sand-run-falls hike (e:heidi,52710) & (e:heidi,52714)
What a cool mushroom, just hanging out on a dead branch.
Boney pile
Pine tree yellowed from the highly acidic shale that it's growing in.
Acid mine drainage pond above Babb's Creek. As the water moves down the mountain, it hits various treatment facilities but wow it's gross. And stinky.
We took a break here.
A nice August sunset shot from the visitors center on Rt. 15 S near Tioga, Pa.

I really wish I had cleaner grouting in my bathroom. :/ I just can't scrub it white. I guess it's so old that the dirt is embedded in it.

Testing new app versionCategory: testing
It seems to work.
paul - 09/16/10 18:46
Its not that intuitive. The only reason I figured it out is because the iphone had it that way and so I tried when I got the nexus.

Your gallery app doesn't let you select multiple images? I can't remember if that came after 2.2 or not but basically the steps are:
1. Open gallery
2. Long press on any image and it brings up checkboxes next to the images.
3. Select the images you want.
4. Hit menu, share, select estrip and it attaches all of them.

it's a pain to add more than a couple images from the phone - too many steps. (open estrip app, tap the gallery icon, navigate to the first picture, it returns to the app, tap the gallery again, repeat....)

nice, I am glad it is working. When you get a chance, try one with like 5-6 images that is when the problem was occurring on my phone before the update.

Kristen Becker vs. Carl PaladinoLast Thursday at the Dykes of Hazard Variety Hour, Kristen Becker told a story about her interaction with Carl Paladino at Roxy's one night... Luckily, it was video'd by the folks at www.wnymedia.net.
The Washington insider rag Politico picked it up on the 10th. And tonight, Rachel Maddow talked to www.wnymedia.net guy Mark Odien [clip]. No mention of Kristen's completely NSFW video, but it's cool that her video is bringing more attention to wnymedia's exposure of his racist, sexist, bestiality-laden emails; crazy policy proposals, and all-around ick.

It looks like he's going to take it.
In reality that describes a ton of people that I've encountered in WNY. I guess the prototype extends statewide as they all voted for him and it never even crossed their minds.

I've been taking jaunts across the state recently, and it's surprising how many Paladino lawn signs and bumper stickers I've seen. Saw a huge row of those signs in West Seneca (probably a rental mogul putting signs everywhere, my best guess).
Can't believe that crap with the e-mails didn't completely euthanize his campaign. That's a shock and a half.

Lampshades are expensive :-p I went to Target and Lowes looking for shades - they had great prices ($12-25) but the bell-shaped ones were only in a kinda dark tan, not a light cream. I'll keep poking around.
I don't know of any local places except the Royallight on Sheridan Dr. In tonawanda. I find lampshades to be surprisingly expensive.
ooooh i really like that. Do you know of somewhere local that sells lots of lampshades? Thanks!
hmmm, link isnt working. :::link:::
i would go with something simple and classic, like this: :::link:::
That's a tough lamp to fit with a shade. How about a solid red shade?
