We live in a precarious time. Unprecedented some might say, where every day we have no idea which way our government is moving. Even the lifelong politicians (as well as the newbies) are confused by this […]

nigel varley replied to the topic LandworksCAD Lt or Pro versus Vectorworks Landmark in the forum STORY BOARD 9 years, 2 months ago
Let me first declare my interest, I developed LANDWorksCAD and to this day still have a significant input into its future direction. LANDWorksCAD has been a great success story for my company and forms a large part of its annual revenue, mostly in new sales and more than 50% from referrals. It appeals to professional landscape Architects and…[Read more]

Dave McCorquodale replied to the topic Getting an education abroad? in the forum EDUCATION 9 years, 2 months ago
I think the consensus around here is that your ability to bring income into the firm and/or increase firm profitability would have a greater positive impact on your earnings than a license. Do longer MLA grad programs contain a study abroad time if you’re just looking to spend time abroad? Or could you even dovetail into an undergrad study…[Read more]

Thanks Dave!
In your experience is there a pay difference or other benefits that come with being licensed?

From my research it seems like there are MLA programs for those with an undergraduate degree in LA and then there are 3 year programs that are specifically designed for those who did not have an undergraduate degree in LA. But that is scary that he wasn’t prepared after his MLA degree, may I ask which school he attended?

Hi Robert-
Thank you for replying, just two questions for you. What do you mean exactly by ‘liberal environmental ideology’?
Are you saying I don’t need to attend an accredited U.S. school to take the L.A.R.E. to become a licensed landscape architect?Thank you!

Yes sir, your ‘fighter’ ran out of his own office so fast yesterday that he forgot to sign his own EO and show his signature off like a 4-year-old, like he usually does. The scary reporter asked him a softball question about General Flynn and he slinked out of the Oval Office with his tail between his legs. The optics of VP Pence fetching the vis…[Read more]

You are a lot like Trump. Deflect, blame, and obsessed with the boring, but likeable guy who just left office. I know it’s the Kenyan mastermind’s fault. He inherited an economy that was running on all cylinders in 2009, and tanked it. It was all gravy in the USA before Barrack. He was such a regular family guy and effective president (co…[Read more]

Just as I thought you are totally incapable of defending Trump without referring to Obama or the Clintons. He’s doing a great job of making himself look bad. He looks bad on all of the networks, including Fox. A shadow government being led by two people, who could barely get anything past the republicans when they actually did have power, is s…[Read more]

Hi Robert!
I had some trouble posting my question and maybe somehow your comment got lost? I did not mean to delete it, please repost it. I don’t know what happened, I would really appreciate any advice. Sorry about this!
Thank you for reaching out.
Best,

Paige– I’ve got a friend who studied for a mini semester at an urban design school in the Netherlands. Not exactly like what you’re looking at here, but maybe relevant. I think he’d say that the international exposure heightened his design ability and gave him a new perspective on finding solutions. My sense is that while licensure may not be…[Read more]

Bob:
You and I don’t share the same values. The funny thing is that I don’t know you, but I get the feeling I’m more conservative in a lot of ways than you are. And the guy you’re supporting has a history of saying some pretty liberal things like, “We’re going to have insurance for everybody”. Crazy times we’re living in right now to think that w…[Read more] -

Funny, I literally LOL’d when I read your “bad guy” vs. “virtuous massive uprising”, because that’s pretty much what I’m selling and believe is happening. I feel that this time around we truly have the classic bad guy in the White House. Yeah, I know that sounds like some of the nutty stuff that was thrown around in 2008 targeting Obama, but th…[Read more]

Further, both events have people who are being motivated by fear. One group is energized by the fear of others and the ‘other-ness’ that comes with them. The second group is fearful because we elected a man who is mean, petty, and has a proven record of screwing people over. We have never had a leader who is so quick to lie about everything and…[Read more]

I can only speak about the Women’s March in DC Leslie. The difference between the march and Trump rallies is easy to point out. Trump rallies are where a group of people who mostly look the same go to listen to a guy who is already elected say the same stupid and hateful stuff he said on the campaign trail just weeks ago. On the other hand the…[Read more]

I made the decision to become a Christian and to live my life as Christ-like as possible. Don’t be scared people, not in a creepy, far-off stare kind of way, but to do my best to live by those teachings. Believe me, it’s a pain in the butt sometimes and can be very inconvenient when you want to do something that you know is wrong. For me it’…[Read more]
