I still think you are missing the point that not all landscape architects have a traditional job where most of the information in the exams is practiced. It shouldnt hold you back from expanding your knowledge of the profession. I think a bigger point is knowing when you are ready to learn all of the information and to really buckle down to study.…[Read more]

I don’t like the idea of a service profession having unions – especially since, as I understand it, LAs work for LAs and rarely for someone else.  Though I would like the profession as a whole to be better able to position ourselves in society as the lawyers and doctors do; the ASLA ought to be the means to do that.  
 
My thought is that pr…[Read more]

I never looked before… but blogger’s template design already has a small window where you can put in copyright notice or attribution notices…
 
Thanks for telling me about that Jason…

Yes, Blogger has all the dates in the editing area of it’s main page for my account.  2006-2011 for me….
 
I have also found this person’s blog to be linked to the site that is using my content: http://earthlandscapes.blogspot.com/
 
Not sure what his affiliation is towards the azlandscape site….but he has been notified directly by me to re…[Read more]

All you really need is to place the warning at the bottom of the page stating that the content is copyrighted and then the years active. The site that ripped off your stuff has a copyright of 2009. Your writing is content (like a book) and should be copyrighted to protect your property. It may already be through your host, but you need to take the…[Read more]

I am not sure how you copyright a blog page?  I do know that Google does indeed shut down sites if they are duplicates of content under different domains… I was warned of this many years ago…

Quick question…
 
Did you copyright your work at the bottom of you blog page? If so, you have a legal case. They appear to have advertising on the site, and therefore they are a commercial entity. Since they are making money off of your work, sue them. Simply turning them into Google won’t do anything. You can try to send them a cease and de…[Read more]

Contact godaddy.com they might be able to help you. Or track down Justin Phillips and leave a flaming bag of dog poo on his front porch.

this I don’t get – amost 40% of americans work for government, and right-wingers insist that government doesn’t create jobs..I don’t get it..
and government provides incentives, for the most part, for private groups to build affordable housing –  usually a percentage of a project, to provide for mixed levels of income living together..
That…[Read more]

Thanks Thomas,
 
Hmmmm… maybe I should buy up all the remaining domain names with his business title and just list my blog posts and a little blurb about his site using my content….lol
 
I don’t want to lower myself to that level though…. but if his site remains up with my content I will list his business info on my blog post where I put a…[Read more]

That’s shady…

Yes! Pass it all the first time with your employer’s money rather than your own! Be like me and the 2% or less that passed them all on one shot. It was pure luck and flipped a coin on answering some of the questions! It’s NEVER good to fail a section and that means you are now paying for it.
Let me be blunt once again: I really think the main…[Read more]

How come you didn’t congratulate me too? As for Miss Renton’s case, I doubt that happened. Maybe she passed the first time and the process took extra time to correct itself. I thought those “frivolous” redline reviews only showed your mistakes without further explanation. If the redline reviews would cease for two years with nobody forking over…[Read more]

If you heard me say these comments, then you would know I have a friendly voice. My “opinions” are brutally honest and I refuse to look at situations through rosy colored glasses and dance around the subject matter!

Make that one grading plan in 12 years and counting!..
Yeah, that’s one measly grading plan as in Uno. Comprende amigo? Why only one? Because, if you look at my previous places of employment, which are comprised mostly of large scale design firms. They tend to favor the large conceptual, design development and Master site planning. The Civil e…[Read more]

Ordinarily I wouldn’t give such a blunt + ignorant comment the time of day mauiBob; but
these redlines hardly seem ‘frivolous’. If not for the redline review in Elizabeth Renton’s case, she wouldn’t have discovered that she actually passed.
Congratulations Elizabeth. 
 
 

You have to look at it as an investment into your future. Spend money/time on this end for a better outcome on the other end. If you made it through 4 of them at one shot and only have to pay an extra $400 you are doing better than most! I failed A and C the first time, passed the second for both and failed E twice. I did the redline for C and it…[Read more]

Hahaha, thanks, but please don’t compare me to MauiBob 🙂  It’s just so frustrating because I (and most people out there) am not made of money, and to have to pay almost $400 to just take the exam (let along get a score verification / red line review) in my opinion is overwhelmingly too expensive.  AND, I realize I’m one of the lucky ones b…[Read more]
