Putting 2 Manfroto and Cullman camera tripods and 2 Smith-Victor Lights back into circulation with repair parts from eBay and HomeDepot

- The Library handed us back circulation of equipment that supports production classes in film studies since they could not maintain the equipment in good state of repair. We are having a hard time to do that, too,
- and regularly seem to lose – since we have no library, but only student staff, likely even more – vital parts (despite plenty of training and (feed:)checklists)
- which we cannot get replaced through approved university procurement channels.
- Enter the local HomeDepot, which has an entire aisle dedicated to screws, bolts, nuts and wing nuts, and eBay, which provides reasonable search features if you specify your parts well. While we do not have part numbers, the first order attempt was delivered in short time and proved successful: Here are the broken lights (screws wing nuts has been replaced in the meantime):
- Here are the the fixed tripods
- (still in the surplus bin, but no need: back into circulation):
- and their original parts, and replacement parts from eBay:

- This is on the teacher PC during a demo – student PCs may not display this behavior, but should be checked also):
- We do not need the demo on each login for each user (“do not show me this again”).
- We have a duplicate project?

Google etymology feature
2014/01/11
Leave a comment
- Etymology information has been added to Google end of August, still need to review this more closely (other languages supported?), but for now:
- Type “etymology” followed by the English word to get the Etymology (and unfold the arrow below to get additional dictionary information, including historical frequency)
- Of course this feature cannot replace a historical legal dictionary, but I what I was looking for was the juxtaposition with “freeman” in English feudal history, which I would have liked to find a reference here to also
- Etymology does not seem to be supported if I type “Etymology Schmetterling” (or “Etymologie Schmetterling”), the feature does not come up. It does if I type “etymology butterfly", however: Is this right?! The next thing which is missing (and this reminds me too much of how our students use Google translate) is the admission of that these explanations are theories which are contentious, and should be debated:

Make sure the microphone switch is turned to off before shelving it – or else the battery will drain which is not easy to replace.
