Empire Wind 1, a major offshore wind project off the coast of New York City, is officially underway!
Empire Wind 1 is slated to finish construction by 2027, and when it does it will power 500,000 New York homes, according to the project’s website. It will also play an integral role in helping the state achieve its legislatively mandated target of 70% renewable energy by 2030.

Here is that Doodle from yesterday lit.
Its hard to describe the zing that adding blacklight to the light mix adds, but the 10mm blacklight really shines. Usually the whites overpower everything, but when you can mix an match the tube sizes, then the brightness changes.
I do like the balance. Maybe a little more red next time. I also wanna change the sequence for three white an blacks as well.
It looks odd... but amazingly, you can get the mercury that close to the oven and it be 800 degrees overnight. I try an keep it close, to minimize the weight of the trap. If its too long an unweildy, it can crack before you get the mercury in or tip it off (and destroy the piece- mercury waste). Using a torch, You tip off after the bubble (after filling), then roll it on in and then tip off the mercury trap tail.
Okay, now I wanna play with more size mismatches and fun color mixes :)
My niece from Boston's visiting #NYC, and you know what that means: another round of her favorite multiplayer sightseeing activity, Dog Bingo!
I thought I'd crowdsource out this one. If you spot a qualifying Dog of New York, feel free to reply. Photos optional. I am not going to be terribly picky about rules, what "Old man dog” means, what "New York" means, and so on. Let's see if we can fill in this whole card.

"It’s not quite as sexy as the 1972 original, but it is a lot more functional, even as it reproduces some of the design features for which Vignelli was criticized back then." —Zoe Guttenplan on #NYC #subway #maps for @nybooks

Easter afternoon we rolled the full #CentralPark loop and checked out the new asphalt. Maybe they're ahead of schedule — it looks like there's just the east side straightaway from 81st to 90th still to be done (and it needs it).
Cat Hill has been one reason we've avoid #InlineSkating the loop for years, but it was suhweet. Now we have no excuses!
We'd complain about the pedestrians strolling in the middle of the road, but belatedly we remembered, that's an April Easter tradition.
Spent my Easter eating a delicious Danish Kringle with Ali and then made this doodle.
I am excited, its forbidden in a few ways. One of which is the tube sizes, which are fine tuned for brightness. That big bright white 25mm tube is thin lead glass- and it would take awhile to get it as hot as the 10 mm #blacklight tube, which will be made brighter by being the narrowest, most focused part of the arc.
On a bombarder, that would suck the narrow blacklight in. It is possibly the best combination to be bombarded in terms of glass heat sensitivity- buut I have an oven, so its baking out over night so I can make this the first try guaranteed :).
Hooray for Easter! After Minneapolis, I needed a day to sleep, and I still should send some emails, but I wanted to relax, and I feel recharged, -but there is about to be so much commercial bending.
Yaaay work!
