My sister in law, Tracy Turpen, is a photographer specializing in weddings and fine art portraiture is doing a fund raiser for Haiti now through the end of February.
She's set up a gallery of her fine art photography, mostly landscapes of Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia and Costa Rica and 100% of the money will be donated.
You can view her gallery here - [link]
I have a lot of old (last couple years) Nat Geo, New Scientist, and Scientific American magazines that have to go. Anyone want them?

Hi everyone.
I joined after meeting several of you thru the wedding reception weekend here in LA. I am working on following the discussions... I think the key is to log in more often.... Forgive me if it's a lot of lurking and not so much posting for a bit here :)
And yes, I have many bunnies. They are cute and fuzzy and get into lots of trouble....

All - please vote for the project I volunteer with in New Orleans, which for two weeks each spring works to rebuild the Lower Ninth Ward in a green manner. This effort supports an initiative by the residents of the neighborhood to make it carbon and climate neutral. It also helps preserve the amazing architectural legacy of the area.
I'll be happy to answer questions or direct you to someone who can. Thank you.
