Well i wish to let you know about a fresh underground tactic that produces myself $900 each day on 100% AUTOPILOT.

So if your seriously interested in producing simple hard cash this is the site for you. <a href="http://tiny.cc/p7mq4" rel="nofollow">Auto Traffic Avalanche</a> Tired of obtaining low numbers of useless visitors for your site?

I am a Civil Engineering student working in Oakland and San Francisco, and I too am trying to reach out to the younger female community. I want to tell everyone about my job so they become informed and interested in becoming engineers :) urbandesignce.com It’s inspiring to see women in Civil Engineering like Teresa Kulesza Goodwin.

The links you provided have great and unusual examples of building reuses. My favorite site you provided was the link to http://weburbanist.com the reuse for residential. If more people would try to come up with alternative uses for buildings the better off I think we would all be. We need to work with what we have instead of leaving rundown eye sores all over town in the wake of once booming economies.

]]> Comment on A black and white painting by teresa http://peoplespacesdg.com/blog/a-black-and-white-painting/comment-page-1/#comment-5 teresa Thu, 31 Dec 2009 17:28:58 +0000 http://peoplespacesdg.com/?p=245#comment-5 Great comment and perspective. I think had the lowest bid not been selected the problems we faced would not have occurred. We currently have only 15 general notes (about 1/6 of a large page), not an entire page like firms who have been in business for 50 years. And yes you are exactly right it is problems like this where these general notes come from. However if the contractor/designer/owner relationship were different I think the process could be much improved. Imagine the money wasted on the first few coats of paint that had to be recovered. I think a team oriented contract where we all win together will eliminate the need for a page of general notes covering every lesson learned from contractors in too big of a hurry to invoice a completed project. Although for small projects like tenant improvements where every dollar counts to a guy just trying to open a candy shop I am not sure low bid is going anywhere anytime soon.

I can't wait to unroll a set of plans one day with more general notes than actual plans. I am also looking forwarding to seeing how long it takes for your new elevation note to be adopted by another company and end up on all of their plans. There has to be a point where every little detail does not need to be spelled out. I guess the only hope is that relationships are established between contractors, engineers, and owners in a way as to build trust and an understanding of intended outcomes for each project.
