5 Ways to Lighten Your Load | Apartment Therapy Los Angeles

by karlcow

1. Do You Need the Book? We started reading books on the kindle for iPhone and it's changing our whole approach to book buying. Not only are we not accruing physical books, but when a great book is recommended to us, we can download it immediately--very satisfying. Of course that doesn't help us with the books we've already got. But to thin them out we consider: if we had to move, would we bring them? And: in 10 years will I remember this book? If it's a yes then it's worth it. If no, it gets donated to a friend or a library.

Street View time-lapse (Los Angeles) | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

by karlcow

I started off using a sample from Google's code repository, modified the

javascript to load a php page via an iframe. For each stop in the driving directions I

pass the php page the panoid, iterator, etc.

and construct the urls to the 21 tiles,

download them and call:montage $tempTilesdir/* -tile 7x3 -geometry

128x128 $basedir/$itr.jpg"Each tile sized down from 512x512 resulting

in the equirectangular panorama at 896x384

(easier to work with when there are a few

hundred frames).Once the driving directions reach the

destination I call:ffmpeg -f image2 -i %d.jpg -s 896x384 -r 5 -b

2000kbs $basedir/$datestamp_5-2000.aviWhich generates an avi encapsulated movie,

mpeg-4 encoded @ 2000kbs (5fps)I'd be interested in collaborating on

projects. PM with what you have going on.

thx.

BIB - Greasemonkey Script - Exemple - Améliorer le statut d'un livre dans le catalogue en Ligne d'une Bibliothèque) - Group LAPL Holds by status for Greasemonkey

by decembre
Groups Los Angeles Public Library (lapl.org) holds (requests) by status: Ready for Pickup, In Transit, or Pending. Instead of just listing the holds by status, this userscript groups them by status. For holds that are Ready for Pickup it shows for each pickup date: * The number of days you have left to pick up your holds. Remember that "a $1.00 fee will be charged if an item placed on hold is not canceled or picked up by the "Hold Until" date." * The day of the week when the holds are due to be picked up * The pickup date * and the number of items to be picked up by that date. This is then followed by the items due to be picked up sorted by title. For holds that are Pending I list the items by the ratio of available # of copies to queue position. This gives you some idea of the order in which your holds will be available. If the ratio is above 1.00 you can expect the hold to be available "soon" (within 3 weeks).

Seat61 - United States of America Getting there by sea... Travelling there by train....

by alphoenix
Each of the long-distance transcontinental routes shown on the map has one train a day, except for New York to Florida (2 trains a day) and the Sunset Limited from New Orleans-San Antonio-Los Angeles (3 trains a week). Important short distance routes (for example, Washington-New York-Boston or Los Angeles-San Diego) have regular intercity services. It's easy to check Amtrak train times at www.amtrak.com - just click on 'Reservations' and use their online system. It's impossible to list all Amtrak trains, but here is a summary of trains on the main routes, including coast-to-coast.

OK Go – This Too Shall Pass : Un vidéo clip à la « The Incredible Machine ». Une variante de la chute de dominos avec tout et n'importe quoi : dément! | Semageek

by decembre
The Incredible Machine, TIM pour les accrocs, était un jeu des années 90 qui stimulait vraiment le cerveau. Le but était de résoudre une énigme en enchainant une suite d’actions plus ou moins sans relation qui créait en totalité l’Incroyable Machine. Alors quand j’ai vu le clip musical de Ok Go, j’ai de suite fait le lien avec le jeu,un bel exemple de Rube Golberg qui dure un petit moment, mais les actions vont en crescendo. La vidéo a été filmé dans un entrepôt de deux étages dans le quartier de Echo Park de Los Angeles. La machine a été conçu par le groupe, ainsi que par les membres du Syyn Labs au cours de plusieurs mois de laborieux travail. Pour ceux qui veulent se rappeler ce qu’est The Incredible Machine, il est disponible sur abandonware-france.org

When we visited one of the islands in Hawaii, we came across a "general store". It was very local and community-based, which we rarely saw in Los Angeles. Nowadays with big chain stores spread in the cities, you can get decent variety of products with decent service anywhere you go. But when we walked into the small "general store" we felt a very friendly, established presence in its local community. In the "general store", their products were what was minimum required in daily life. Less variety of what big chain stores carried. But we felt that was just enough.
