Just goes to show that losing your job is not always a bad thing…especially when you have the foresight, determination, and guts required to start your own business…in this economy, it is really the only way to know that you will have some type of job security…you are never safe these days in the workforce. I am very proud of Joseph and anyone else who takes the bulls by the horns, and does not let the state of the economy determine their future…kudos Jo, and I KNOW that you will be a success, and I wish the best of luck to others in the same situation.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on The Ironic Happiness of Unemployment: Inspiration in Scarcity by Stacy</h1> <p>Stacy — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:19:30 +0000</p> <p>great article. it’s always uplifting to hear how people make the most of what could be a negative situation. gotta stay positive! good luck and great site!</p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on The Ironic Happiness of Unemployment: Inspiration in Scarcity by Phillip Rogers</h1> <p>Phillip Rogers — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:08:13 +0000</p> <p>I enjoyed reading this article.

That’s not the issue here. Contractors and building suppliers up until last year could be a LEED AP. Personally, I think interior designers who want to be architects should go to architecture school. I know there are some basics that are similar, space-planning, life safety, etc. but because IDs are not trained in classes such as structures (concrete, steel, etc) and lateral forces, and other technical coursework, from a liability standpoint, they are putting themselves at major legal risk by stamping drawings. I’ve worked with many IDs that knew a great deal about the technical aspects of commercial buildings, so I’m certainly not saying they aren’t capable. But in this lawsuit-friendly world, if I were an ID, I would not want the responsibility to stamp drawings, having not been educated in architecture’s fundamental building/building systems classes.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Interior Design vs Architecture by Lesley LEED AP</h1> <p>Lesley LEED AP — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 17:27:30 +0000</p> <p>Wow, this is a really interesting struggle. At one time, I would have said that interior design and architecture are rather different fields. Now, with the LEED system put into play, I believe these two fields can come together. There are many interior designers become LEED accredited, and LEED gives individuals the proper education and training for fulfilling the requirements listed above. I think there is work being done to “closely examine” the profession of interior design, especially since LEED is developing a whole system for this profession – LEED Interior Design. Ultimately, interior designers will and should have the same power, if you will, as architects. As long as someone is properly trained, I see no problem with it.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Interior Design vs Architecture by Brandi</h1> <p>Brandi — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 03:01:13 +0000</p> <p>Thank you for this information. Asa designer working in Georgia, I have worked in several firms that struggled with this same, stamping problem. Many times we were to required to submit special documentation or even bring in an outside architect who wasn`t envolved in the planning process, etc. My thoughts are that the profession of interior design might need to be more closely examined because there are a lot of people who claim and work on profects without the proper licencing,,,,</p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Movie Review: My Father, The Genius by Hugh</h1> <p>Hugh — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 21:07:30 +0000</p> <p>here is the link to the imdb profile for the movie – <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0315626/" rel="nofollow">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0315626/</a></p> </article> <article> <h1>Comment on Help Haiti! by john</h1> <p>john — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 15:52:19 +0000</p> <p>Buy stuff and all the proceeds go to helping Haiti!<br /> <a href="http://www.cafepress.com/haitirelief?source=email&CMP=EMC_20100116_haitirelief&utm_source=cafepress&utm_medium=email&utm_content=0&utm_campaign=20100116_haitirelief" rel="nofollow">http://www.cafepress.com/haitirelief?source=email&CMP=EMC_20100116_haitirelief&utm_source=cafepress&utm_medium=email&utm_content=0&utm_campaign=20100116_haitirelief</a></p> </article> </main></body></html>
