Bill Diodato - Under The Table, From The Graphis Photo Annual (2006)

Designed in the late 1940s by Charles Eames and Eero Saarinen, Case Study House #9 was built in the Pacific Palisades next door to the Eames House on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The interiors of the steel-frame house featured concrete flooring, wood-paneled ceilings, and multiple levels in an open floor plan. The house was commissioned by John Entenza, the editor of California Arts and Architecture Magazine, the publication that sponsored the multi-year Case Study Houses project.

Lenticular Clouds

Altocumulus Lenticular clouds are stationary clouds that form mostly in the troposphere, typically in parallel alignment to the wind direction. They are often comparable in appearance to a lens or saucer. Nacreous clouds that form in the lower stratosphere sometimes have lenticular shapes.

Out of evil, much good has come to me. By keeping quiet, repressing nothing, remaining attentive, and by accepting reality, taking things as they are, and not as I wanted them to be, by doing all this, unusual knowledge has come to me, and unusual powers as well, such as I could never have imagined before. I always thought that when we accepted things they overpowered us in some way or other. This turns out not to be true at all, and it is only by accepting them that one can assume an attitude towards them.
