Website Design: Law Firm Marketing
February 29th, 2008Got a call from Dee Schiavelli earlier this week. Dee is a consultant who helps lawyers, accountants and other professional providers develop effective marketing strategies for their practices.
I helped Dee build her website last year, and she needed some training in how to update it. So, yesterday afternoon, we did a telephone training session. During the training, Dee created two new web pages and edited her home page copy.
Dee will be giving a legal marketing presentation to the Pima County Bar Association on March 27, and you can get the details on her site...

Construction Photography: Hillside Makeover
February 26th, 2008Spring is in the air, and that means that Tucson's Watershed Management Group volunteers are back in action. Here, two shovel-wielding volunteers are helping a local family solve a steep problem...
Seems that the west side of their property has a steep slope that does a convincing imitation of a waterfall when there's a heavy downpour. What's worse is that the water runoff shorts out the pump that they need to connect with the county sewer system.
So, WMG and its volunteers are transforming the slope into a water harvesting oasis that will feature native plants in berms and basins. The berms and basins will slow the flow and allow the water to nourish the plants.

Event Photography: Fords on Fourth
February 25th, 2008Yesterday morning, the Mustangs, Thunderbirds, Fairlanes, and T-birds lined up on Tucson's Fourth Avenue. The occasion was Fords on Fourth, an all-Ford car show...
Fords on Fourth offered a veritable banquet of treats for those who like to get under the hood...
Or you could see the festivities reflected on this hood...
If there's one word that could be used to describe a car show, it would be "polish." As in, "polish it until it gleams..."
And, last but not least, no Tucson event would be complete without some colorful people (and their birds) in attendance. This macaw was perched on the shoulder of a friendly fellow who assured me that the bird loved cameras. Having been bitten by a macaw, I was a little skeptical. But I just kept my face covered with the camera and clicked away...

Website Design: Saluting Feminist Lawyers
February 20th, 2008When I was a first-grader I had a fabulous teacher. I owe my love of reading to that lady, because she taught me how.
Toward the end of the school year, she made an announcement that disappointed the whole class. She said that she wasn't coming back in the fall because she was going to have a baby. Mind you, we weren't sad about the baby news, but we were sad to not be able to see her in school come fall.
That's just how things were back then. If you were expecting, you had to quit your teaching job.
The woman who won the right for teachers to continue to work while pregnant will be honored at a June luncheon that's being organized by the Veteran Feminists of America. I just finished the initial design of the event website, which you can visit by clicking on the screenshot below...
An update on my first grade teacher: A few years after her resignation, she went back to teaching. And there she remained until retirement.
According to my mother (who also was a teacher), my first grade teacher didn't get any pension coverage for the years before her resignation. An it wasn't like she wasn't working during that time -- I can personally attest to that.

Bike-tography 105: Signs Along the Way
February 18th, 2008Was pedaling over to a Saturday afternoon class, and what should I encounter but the massive Interstate 10 widening project. This construction project is causing all sorts of headaches for the motoring public, and it's supposed to continue until 2010.
I-10's Downtown Tucson worksite was chock-full of barricades, mud, heavy equipment, and other obstacles that made me get off the bike and walk.
I spied this sign in a storage area, and just couldn't resist....

Nature Photography: Awaiting Spring in Tucson
February 15th, 2008It's raining. Again.
Been quite busy pulling weeds, but that's a good sign. It's a sign that my yard plants will soon start blooming like this ocotillo, which gets quite motivated after a rainy spell...

Event Photography: Firetruck Tours
February 14th, 2008
I've been seeing a lot of the Tucson Fire Department recently. Not that I've had any house fires or accidents. It's just that we keep running into each other at large community events. The above shot is from last Saturday's Harambee Festival, where the TFD was offering firetruck and ambulance tours.
