The Reality of Pain | autismthoughts August 6, 2014 autismthoughts I may not register pain in the same way other people do because I do not know what it is like to NOT be in pain. My life has been filled with pain and so I sometimes don’t really realize when I am in pain or why I am in pain. I experience pain from sounds, sights, emotions, stress, touch. Normal everyday life constantly causes me pain. Sometimes it is bearable and sometimes it is unbearable, but it is always there. So when people say that people with autism don’t experience pain or don’t register pain, I cringe inside. When life is pain, how could you not experience pain? The thing is though, when life is pain, how do you know the difference between the pain of sensory disturbance and pain that signifies a medical condition? How do you know when the pain is preventable and when it’s not? How do you know that pain is a sign that something is wrong when your body is constantly telling you that the world is wrong? To me, there are many different types of pain and sometimes one pain can masquerade as another pain. Sometimes I feel a tingling pain like when your foot falls asleep, only it happens when someone touches me. Sometimes I feel stabbing or throbbing pain when I hear a loud or prolonged noise. Sometimes I feel a dull ache when I’ve been in the same room for too long. Sometimes I feel a choking pain like the gripping pain of frostbite when I see someone else hurting or lonely. All of these types of pains are normal to me. I feel them nearly every day. However, they can also signify that something is wrong. They can be signs of a medical condition or a danger in the environment. The problem is telling the difference. The problem is knowing when your normal pains aren’t normal. So before you think that someone won’t be able to feel pain because they self injure or because they don’t seem to respond to pain, maybe think about some other reasons they may not seem to feel pain. Lack of emotion to pain doesn’t necessarily mean that the pain isn’t felt. It just may not be fully understood.

I often struggle with this myself. I have a hard time explaining to people how I feel pain. I break a toe and my left arm hurts. I sprain an ankle and my tongue hurts. It is like it is all wrongly wired. I also struggle to differentiate between throbbing pain, stabbing pain and achy pain. I can’t describe pain other than to say I am in it. I have a high tolerance to pain (I can tolerate all dental work and many surgeries without an numbing agent), which adds to the belief I can’t feel pain. I feel it, but it isn’t something I can react to. Hmm, that’s interesting. I think pain is always hard to describe. I mean, we come up with all these terms for pain like stabbing and throbbing, but unless you feel it it’s hard to get an accurate description of what the pain is like. First off; thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experiences! It is so important to give people proper psycho-education on not only different aspects of mental health, but on experiences outside of their own. I applaud your bravery! (Too many people lack this quality and it is one that I hold near and dear to me) Second, this post really spoke to me. Especially the part where you mention say “How do you know that pain is a sign that something is wrong when your body is constantly telling you that the world is wrong?” I have a different, yet similar experience when I am about to experience an anxiety attack. It is very difficult because someone who does not cope with it has a gut instinct that they are usually able to trust. But due to my anxiety disorder, I may become afraid and feel threatened thereby triggering a fight or flight response and then i’m left trying to figure out if there really is a threat. To be honest, I never thought I was being brave. I just have to be honest. It’s in my nature to be subconsciously direct and open. And well, this blog is the first time I’ve really been able to share with the world so I say what I feel. I’m glad you can relate. (well, not glad that you experience that, but glad that my post connected with you.) Figuring out the world is a very interesting experience sometimes and I always find it interesting how we’re all so different and yet so similar. Hey there. First of all, let me just say thank you for following my blog. I’m extremely interested in yours, being that I have a 7 year old son that has Asperger’s Syndrome. I’m so glad you’re sharing your first-hand experiences. It can help me understand my little guy a bit better. I also have an older brother that has autism, so I’ve been around autistic people all my life. “I experience pain from sounds, sights, emotions, stress, touch. Normal everyday life constantly causes me pain.” –Very interesting. Maybe this is why my son has such a hard time stopping and reading with me. We live in Brazil, but I’m Canadian. So, in our home I speak only English with my kids and am teaching them to read in English. It is sooooo frustrating with my son because every time we’re going to read he freaks out and doesn’t want to do it. Then it takes him forever to read just one sentence. I was thinking it could be a focus thing or maybe having so many words together on the page and seeing them all together causes him stress. Who knows? Thanks a ton Julia. No problem. Thanks for reading! As far as the aversion to reading thing goes, it could be a lot of different things from the environment to scheduling to sensory input. That’s the beauty and difficulty of autism. There’s no one answer to any question. Everyone is unique and individual in how they react to things. Oh yes, I know it could be any number of things. I fully believe that every person is an individual and that there are no pat answers. It’s frustrating for me because it is difficult pinpointing exactly how to deal with his resistance and know what it is about it that bothers him. Yeah that would be frustrating, but you’re trying and that’s what matters the most 🙂 Thanks for visiting! I look forward to getting to know your blog as well 🙂

Sorry I never told you last week where I was going because I had no idea where I was going till 5 clock that night. Well I'm now in Little Hampton and serving with Elder Ertmann from Morgan, Utah! Yep he is my 7th Utahn companion. He is also my 11th companion and am now on to my 6 area. Crazy how many different people and areas of England I have seen. Little Hampton reminds me a lot of Hedge End. That is bunch of old people and small area. We are a 5 minute walk from the sea so looks like I will spend a solid year right by the sea which is pretty epic! Sorta hope this isn't my last area, but if it is oh well the ward and people here are awesome! Plus I'm right by my third area so I can see the members I lived with all the time:) Elder Gunnell is also my district leader which is hilarious and awesome since I only got one transfer to serve with him. Elder Green is also in the next city over so will be seeing him a lot which is sick since he goes home in three months! Also get to be right by the temple again which is nice since I have been exiled for the last 7.5 months! Elder Ertmann is epic! He is 20 and loves to hunt. He owns property in South Africa and says all I have to do is pay for the plane ticket. Its only $2500 so that's pocket change! Just have to go get me a lion! He also was less active all growing up and then about 2 years ago decided to be active and now just tears it up on his mission! Brought the rest of his family back into activity as well which was really cool. He is so chilled and so dang funny. Just cracks me up constantly with all his stories. He came out last April and I actually went on a split with him for like two hours when he was brand spanking new. Trained by an Elder from my group so it was epic. Pretty dang excited for this transfer. We have about 4 investigators. 2 are a couple that have been investigating the church for 50 years so they are more like members then investigators. Then another one named Sandy has been investigating for a few years now and has decided to be baptized before the summer starts so that is epic! Her daughters where baptized 4 years ago by my old district leader Elder La Mazza. The other guy is a Jehovah Witness that they just found and likes to Bible Bash. Seeing him on Tuesday so time to bear down in pure testimony against him and get him baptized! Other then those people and a few of the craziest less actives I have ever met we just do a whole lot of finding! Real quick we have this less active that is crazy and will call us up all the time and say I bought you this chicken so come get it. He buys us whole flippin chickens! So funny. The beginning of this week was pretty crazy. I found out Monday night before going over to the Stake President's to eat dinner that I'm leaving tomorrow morning. So we go eat dinner then go to John and Judith Martin's to say goodbye since we were suppose to eat there the next day and just took some pics. We then packed until midnight which was fun. Well the zone leaders come and pick us up and while driving there decided to tell me that I'm spending the night in Bideford which is an area in Plymouth Stake and leaving my bags with them. So I just chilled in the same clothes for like 3 days haha. Bideford is fun though cause Elder Williams (from my mtc group and old district leader) and they have a car! So we went to a D.A. with this old couple and there nonmember sister and taught her. We then went to young men and women's and had waffles and played this fun game. Well while playing this game I went to move and just let out this big old fart. It was pretty funny. Everyone kept telling me how glad they were that I'm not staying. Ooops! We then had to wake up at 4:30 in the morning went and picked up someone in Exeter who is going to the Isle of Wight. Lucky dog. Then on our way to Yeovil we got stuck in traffic so we turn around and start going down the back roads which are barely wider then your car. Well we start having loads of cars coming the other way so we barely get by that when a bus comes from behind and get everyone stuck. We barely escape and spend the next half hour telling all the other cars to turn around. Turned out a Lori (Semi) jacked knife on the main road and now everyone was using the back roads! Anyway got to Yeovil I then got in the Poole Zone leaders car and talked about ranching and driving trucks the whole two hours to Staines. Sister Barnes who was on the Isle of Wight with me was in the car so that was cool to catch up with her. We also drove by Stone Henge which is right by the motorway. Just in this dirt field with sheep. Pretty funny to look at. Yeah then after getting dropped off in Worthing saying hi to Elder Gunnell and then leaving to my flat. Well about a half mile away from my flat one of my suitcases decides to have both sets of wheels just blow up or something so I drag this 50lbs bag full of books and who know what for a half mile. That was great. So yeah that is my exciting week! So many adventures. I forgot to mention last week that the week before on P-day that it snowed for the first time of me being in England! It was pretty sick! Made snow angels and had a weak snowball fight haha. That's my week and hope you have had a great week and an even better week! LOVE YA TO SHREDZZ!!! Stake President, his wife, and daughter. Then John and Judith my couple of my favorite members ever! First snowfall of my whole mission Manolito and Reece February 24, 2015 Transferred again just after one... February 16, 2015 Sorry I never told you last wee... February 9, 2015 Well this week was crazy and weir... February 2, 2015 Fun fact missionaries make less t...

My Passionate Pursuit: How can you not? I was reading Ephesians chapter 1 today and was immediately drawn into the passage. I love how the apostle Paul went straight from his greeting the believers at Ephesus - right into praise. Look at verse 3. the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. How do you chose to give God praise? Do you do it with singing? Through prayer? Do you write your heartfelt thoughts in poetic form or as random thoughts in your personal journal? Why do we praise Him? Because He alone is worthy of our Worship. He alone is Holy. He alone is to be exalted above all others, above all things. Why do we bless Him? We bless Him because He has so richly blessed us. When we bless Him we praise Him for who He is and for what He has done. How has He blessed us? He has blessed us with every spiritual blessing. Notice the completeness of that blessing. Every blessing - nothing is lacking. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. Ephesians 1:4 We have been given the benefit of knowing God. We were chosen by Him for salvation. We were adopted as His children. He has forgiven our past. He has secured our future. He has fulfilled our present. We have been given the Holy Spirit as a comforter and guide. The Holy Spirit bears fruit in our lives with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. We have truly been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavens. And it's all because of Jesus. Because of what He did on the cross. He took upon Himself our guilt, our shame, our punishment so that we could have forgiveness, eternal life and hope. I don't know about you..., but like Paul I just have to praise Him! Labels: Ephesians, Praise, Salvation Excellent blog header. I am a singer. Singing to the Lord is something that I am compelled to do. Thanks for sharing. Great message Lisa. We just have no other choice but to lift our praises up to God! We sang " I Will Exalt Thee" Sunday a.m. and I thought, Oh Lord, that is all I want to do, Exalt Thee. That is the deepest desire for me with Higher Grounds. Exalting the only one that deserves to be Exalted. Father God, Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Amen? AMEN! Love ya, Yolanda Great post Lisa! You always give me so much to chew on. I plan to come back and read your post again in the morning during my quiet time so I can chew on Ps. 141 and Eph. 1 a bit more. Amen Lisa! I join you in praise to our LORD for He alone is worthy! Music is how I praise Him most I think. O Lisa this is awesome! Often I say and pray, that LORD HOW CAN I NOT PRAISE YOU?! With all that He's done for me. With all that He is to me. How can I not? How can I/we not? Yes, I too praise Him with my voice. Sometimes when I sing in the praise band, or even just sing from my seat among all of my brothers and sisters, I think that I leave the presence of the congregation and commune alone with God. Thanks for sharing this... I just want to praise Him. What a privilege it is to be able to praise the great I AM. Singing, dancing, talking and just sitting, He loves it all - what a wonderful God we serve.

“I’m not sure why he felt he was allowed to go back,” Mangalik said, adding that he had not been aware of any dispute over Rush’s care until contacted by The New York Times. “I don’t know if he told the team he had symptoms and they let him play anyway, or if he didn’t have symptoms and now is saying that he did. I don’t know that. All I know is what he told me and I told him.”A spokesman for HealthONE Clinic Services, based in Denver, said the company would not comment until it could review the court filing.The A.F.L. went into bankruptcy last year and has re-emerged with a reshuffled roster of teams in a season beginning next month, but the Crush no longer exists.No Crush official is named in the lawsuit because Colorado law restricts legal action for injured employees to the state worker’s compensation system. Mangalik and HealthONE were independently contracted by the Crush as medical providers and are therefore not considered Rush’s employers.The lawsuit is not the first of its kind. In November, La Salle University agreed to pay $7.5 million to settle a lawsuit brought by a player severely injured by a concussion that he claimed had been mistreated by university medical staff.In 2000, the former N.F.L. running back Merril Hoge received a $1.55 million jury verdict in a lawsuit against a former Chicago Bears team physician, Dr. John Munsell. The lawsuit alleged that Munsell’s mistreatment of a concussion had led to more serious injury. The case was later settled under confidential terms.

Participants not registered to receive electronic notifications were EO: In her response to the court's Order To Show Cause Why Action Should Not Be Dismissed, Plaintiff states that she is withdrawing her Emergency Petition for Stay/Preliminary Injunction of Cremation of the Alleged Remains of Deceased Loretta Fuddy. This court has already denied the Emergency Petition, so the withdrawal is untimely. However, the court deems the withdrawal to indicate that Plaintiff is not seeking the detailed written order that the court had indicated would be forthcoming. The court therefore will not be issuing a detailed written order denying the Emergency Petition, and its earlier minute order will be the only order denying the Emergency Petition.

Information exchange between various users of the film, such as the film manufacturer, the camera user, the dealer and photofinisher, is carried via plural longitudinal magnetic tracks on the film, each track being dedicated to the writing and reading of a predetermined set of related parameters. The tracks are divided into data fields. A data field includes a virtual identification code and a plurality of sub-fields representative of different parameters. The virtual identification code serves as an address to corresponding stored instructions which identify and interpret the data in the corresponding sub-fields. Look-up tables addressed by said virtual identification codes can include bit-map instructions, state identifier instructions, and/or scaling algorithm instructions. 1. In an elongate photographic film strip having successive frames, the improvement comprising:a magnetic layer; and a magnetic track recorded in said magnetic layer, said track comprising at least one field, said field comprising a virtual identification code and a plurality of sub-fields comprising magnetically recorded data representive of different parameters, the virtual identification code serving as an address to corresponding stored instructions which identify and interpret data in said sub-fields. 2. The film strip of claim 1 wherein said virtual identification codes refer to instructions for corresponding sub-fields comprising at least one of: bit-mapping instruction; state identifier instructions; scaling algorithm instructions. The invention solves the problem of attaining data synchronization at all stages of film use without requiring that each stage transport the film at constant velocity nor even at the same velocity while recording or playing back data. The invention achieves this without requiring the recording of an extra space-wasting clocking track simultaneously with the data track. Instead, the representation of the binary state of a particular bit is unaffected by the film transport speed during recording and playback and is self-clocking. This representation uniquely depends upon the temporal relationship between each data transition pulse and its immediately preceeding and succeeding clock pulses in the serial pulse train comprising the self-clocking code. In the preferred embodiment, a one bit is represented by a data transition pulse which is closer to the preceeding clock pulse. For a zero bit, the data transistion pulse is closer to the succeeding clock pulse. Referring to FIG. 1, a strip 100 of color negative film 35 millimeters wide includes a base 110, various well-known photo-chemical layers 115 on one side of the base 110 and a virtually transparent magnetic layer 120 on the other side. An anti-static and lubricating layer 22 overlies the magnetic layer 120. The film strip 100 includes perforations 125 sapced along the film edge at regular intervals matching the pitch of a metering pawl in a camera adapted to use the film strip 100. As described previously with reference to FIG. 6, each field of data is preceeded by an identification code or ID code 625 comprising two six-bit characters. The remainder of the field consists of one or more six-bit characters representing a particular parameter or piece of information. For example, if the camera records the aperture size used to expose each frame, then, as one possible example, four characters would suffice, using the symbol table of FIG. 8. Specifically, if the aperture size was f 1.4, then the first character would be the six-bit byte for "f" from FIG. 8, the second would be "1", the third "." and the fourth would be the six bit byte for "4". Unfortunately, such a scheme uses twelve indentification code bits for each parameter recorded, requiring a maximum amount of overhead. (The term "overhead", as used in this specification, refers to data recorded for control or identification purposes.) Use of the dedicated film tracks for magnetic recording of information by a camera has been described with reference to the example of FIG. 2. FIG. 10 illustrates one example of the use of the dedicated film tracks (of either FIG. 1 or FIG. 3) for magnetic reading and writing in a photofinishing system. In general, such a photofinishing system employs it own version of the read only memories 240, 700, 800 for track location, and ID code dictionary and a symbol dictionary. Referring to FIG. 18a, an order entry station, such as one used by a film dealer, receives a cassette of film of the type illustrated in FIG. 1 from a customer. Presumably, the customer has exposed the film in his camera and desires that the film be processed for prints. Under these circumstances, the process which is followed is illustrated in FIG. 18a and is described with reference to the system illustrated in FIG. 10. The dealer would have only a few of the components illustrated in FIG. 10, these being a P/F order entry station 910, a controller 915, a memory 925 storing the P/F order entry algorithm illustrated in FIG. 18a and a terminal 920. The customer's cassette containing the film 100 is inserted into the order entry station 910 (block 1001 of FIG. 18a). The order entry station 910 includes means of the type well-known in the art for extracting the film leader out of the cassette so that the order entry station magnetic head 910a can read data (if any) previously recorded in dedicated tracks on the film lead (frame 0). (Blocks 1003, 1005 of FIG. 18a.) The controller 915 first determines (through the head 910a) whether track F1 of frame 0 is empty (block 1007). If data is detected in track F1 (NO branch of block 1007) the controller 915 immediately concludes that the film cassette is a customer reorder for prints, was developed previously and therefore should be handled separately. Otherwise (taking the YES branch of block 1007) the controller 915 next determines whether the owner's name and address (ID) was previously recorded--presumably using a camera of the type illustrated in FIG. 2--on camera track C0 of frame 0, in accordance with the dedicated tracks allocation of FIG. 5 (block 1009 of FIG. 18a). If not, taking the NO branch of block 1009, the controller 915 causes the display on the terminal 910 to prompt the dealer to input the owner ID (block 1011). The dealer then inputs the owner ID on the keyboard 920 (block 1013). Otherwise, taking the YES branch of block 1009, the controller 915 causes the terminal 920 to display the owner ID previously recorded in the film. The controller 915 then determines whether the owner ID is complete or correct, given prior inputs from the terminal 920 (blocks 1015 and 1017 of FIG. 18a). If the ID is incorrect or incomplete, the controller 915 causes the display on the terminal 920 to prompt the dealer for a correction of the owner (block 1019) so that the dealer may respond by making the correct entry at the keyboard 920 (block 1021 of FIG. 18a). If the owner ID is correct and complete (YES branch of block 1017) the controller 915 then determines (block 1023) whether the customer ID indicates a return customer. This determination would be made by matching the customer's ID with the file of all customer ID's kept in the dealer's computer memory. As a variation on this theme, it may be that the customer has used a camera of the type illustrated in FIG. 2 which could have the capability of recording a particular dealer ID on the film exposed by that camera. In such a case, the camera may have been programmed by the dealer that sold it to always record that dealer's ID on all film processed by the camera. Alternatively, means could be provided for permitting the customer to program his camera to record certain dealer ID numbers. As illustrated in FIG. 10, the photofinisher system itself may include its own order entry station, enabling it to use computerized automation to process film received from the dealer and even film received directly from a customer. Of course, such a photofinisher order entry station would operate in nearly the same manner as that described in connection with the dealer order entry station process of FIG. 18a. FIG. 18b, however, highlights the differences between the operation of a photofinisher order entry station and a dealer order entry station. Referring to FIG. 18b, the photofinisher order entry station 910 of FIG. 10 extracts the leader from the film cartridge in order to read the data recorded on frame O (block 1040). The controller 915 of the photofinisher order entry station then determines whether tracks F00 and F01 are empty (block 1042). If so, the process described previously in connection with FIG. 18a is used to update the frame 0 data to be recorded in tracks F00 and F01 representing the customer and order information in accordance with the dedicated track allocation of FIG. 5 (block 1044). Such data is then recorded through the head 910a and the requisite locations on tracks F00 and F01 of frame 0 (block 1046). The inspection station 960 of FIG. 10, under control of the controller 965, follows an inspection algorithm stored in the memory 970, the inspection algorithm being illustrated in the flow diagram of FIG. 18d. The inspection station 960, via the magnetic head 960a, reads the data frame 0, tracks F00, F01 and F02 (block 1200 of FIG. 18d). The controller 965 determines whether or not track F02 is empty (block 1203). If track FO0 is not empty, this indicates that the current order requires makeover or reorder, and an alarm or indication is raised (NO branch of block 1203). In a special case, the inspection station 960 may halt operation at this point if it is not supposed to handle reorders or makeovers. Otherwise, taking the YES branch of block 1203, the inspection station 960 advances the negsatives by one frame (block 1205 of FIG. 18d) and reads the frame number of the next frame (block 1207). The controller 965 determines whether or not that frame number falls within the maximum number of frames on a given roll of film (block 1209). If not, taking the NO branch of block 1209, the frame number indicates the end of the particular customer order has been reached and the controller 965 next determines whether an end of order flag has been set (block 1211). The setting of this flag will be discussed below. If not (NO branch of block 1211), the negatives and the prints have gotten out of synchronization with each other (block 1213) and an alarm is sounded. Otherwise, the end of order has properly been reached and the roll of negatives is advanced to frame 0 (the leader) of the next customer order or roll (block 1215), and the entire cycle is repeated.

Coconut Grove Grapevine: Proliferation of peacocks Coconut Grove Grapevine -Daily Updates on what's up in Coconut Grove. - We cover news, events, gossip and happenings in the Grove. Miami news, Miami art news Proliferation of peacocks Here's Patrick Sessions, taking a photo of Heather Bettner, chair of the Coconut Grove Peacock Tour, as more painted peacocks hit the streets of Coconut Grove yesterday. This peacock, entitled, "Queen of Coconut Grove," by artist Eileen Seitz, was sponsored by the Sessions family for the benefit of the Village Council. It is installed in a prime location, right on the corner of Commodore Plaza and Main Highway at the new Lulu restaurant. LuLu's is painted on the bird. Art imitating life. Lulu is set to open at the end of the month. Penelopeacock, created by artist George Rodez, proudly sits outside The Bookstore at Grand and Virginia. They are the most photographed things in the Grove at the moment. People love them and come up to them to admire them and of course take lots of photos. At left is Valentina Peacock, done by pop artist Ed King, it is located at EMW's office (the little yellow house) at Franklin and Main Highway, it gives a big wave goodbye as people leave the Center Grove; at right is the peacock painted by Fred Hunt called, "Night and Day, You Are the One," which is right at the entrance to the Mayfair Promenade, in front of the Antique Market. A map of the locations of many of the peacocks may be seen here. It is still in the works, so more locations will be added as the peacocks are added. A printed map will be available all over town soon. Heather is considering adding another 10 perhaps, because people seem to want to sponsor one when they see them on the streets. Contact her at 305-775-0113. There are many available aritsts who are prepared to create a peacock just for you. And here is the Channel 10 report that reporter Victor Oquendo did the other day. You can even see the back of my bald head in a couple of shots.

Carb Tripper: July 2014 "Running late - again!" I called to tell Sherri I would be late for the Monday night Cooking "Class!" "No Probs" quoth she! Sherri put together a wonderful dinner Using only her imagination and a few Sundry Items A little prep shopping and chopping. We CAN follow a recipe - And we have... BUT we are mostly cooking without them.... And learning how and why things make food taste better! Fresh Fruit is Summer is a treat Especially when it comes from a produce stand In or near East Texas! Get rid of the junk food, and Don't eat out so much, And you are more than half-way there! Sherri is now able to cook almost anything! With skill and ease! She is an official graduate of the CT LC School of Foodolgy. Graduating with honors: Mo Beta Fry! Not that there is anything wrong with the old way... So Sherri is officially a cook! And an awesome one - at that! cooking with sherri, just say no to frozen dinners, low carb home made New kicks.... lol Not new, but bless her heart Not new either - In-n-Out never gets old. This is the Flying Dutchman from the Secret Menu Gruel and unusual punishment Not yet Halloween Heave Ho Crane Leaders are Readers - the sign says Rockwall Court House Licked to Death by savage pups Finally some rain - and the temp got below 100! Cuz it gets pretty hot in the car with the windows up! low carb stuff, picnic at the arboretum So Sherri comes over for lunch on Saturday We went to the Dallas Arboretum And I thought - why not bring a lunch? So I nade a little picnic basket I once bet Sherri $5 that in time, She would discover (as I have) That food you make yourself at home Is Better, Healthier, Cheaper, and even Faster Than almost ANYTHING you can buy - eating out! I think she is almost convinced! These little bottles fit in my cooler Nice lunch surroundings! On the way back to my place, There was this huge Church - I grew up in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas By now Sherri is used to me taking a picture of everything in the world. She even suggested we stop here! Comparing two kinds of "miracle noodles"... The actual kind and the grocery store kind. One is ZC (no carbs) One has 4 carbs per serving.... Both are made with Konjack Noodles... (link) Only watch out for soy. Soy is a sick, rancid chemical, all GMO, And we don't ever need soy, ever, in any amount. (Says the former Vegan who once lived on soy!) Hint: WASH them before you serve them Made some Zoodles.... Spiral cut Zucchini Italian Sausage and Brats I prance - after my nearly 20 pound re re gain loss One kind - more translucent The other kind - more starchy No real taste difference Both make for a great scramble Fried Tomatoes in Balsamic Vinegar..... Sausage.... Zoodles.... and Noodles Tea... And dinnah - is - suvved, y'all! The winner - Unknown! If you are really strict on carbs, get the Miracle Noodles. (link) If Albertson's in nearby, get the other!

Lotsa Laundry: February 2010 A "likely letter" Did Little Guy write a book? When agendas collide Valentine's Day Dropout City sledding The yardstick problem It needs a name... maybe Call of the Wild (and other book musings) Sherlock Holmes and peanuts I survived the FAFSA Our homeschool co-op meets weekly. While the kids are in class (Dancer takes animation, writing, and biology; Snuggler does gym, physics, and writing; Little Guy has a sweet little group that does read-alouds with crafts), the moms chat for a while, then break out into smaller groups. I'm part of the book group. It is a fabulous collection of ladies: bright, compassionate, funny. We laugh a lot. Before we start our book discussion, the group takes time to go around the circle to ask for prayer requests. I like this, and not only because there are times I need a crowd to clamor on my behalf. Half the benefit is that I hear a whole range of difficulties that people face. It drives home the reality that having problems is a normal part of life. I'm not the only one who sometimes struggles. You might think I'm smart enough to know that, but no matter how well or how frequently the lesson is taught, it has about the same staying power with me that tutorials on table manners have with my kids. I ask myself why, and conjure up an whimsical MRI-like image of my brain with certain spots that are porous, others that are dense, and still others that are made of rubber. But there's some other explanation, I'm sure. It has to do with the nebulous crossover zone between the intellect and knowledge of the heart. There's probably a touch of self-absorption in the answer. Maybe there's a bit of self-protection, too, because our souls aren't big enough to carry the woes of the whole world. Half the time they aren't big enough to tote our own troubles without help. One of the good things I've learned by hanging out with honest people is that perfection doesn't exist. Some families might seem flawless for a time -- there's always someone who messes up the curve -- but we all end up in tough spots eventually. We all face things we don't know how to handle. We've all blown it, blown up, and pretended to blow off stresses and griefs and worries.We're not perfect. Life's not perfect. That's okay. Which brings me back to my book group. Whether this week's big problem belongs to me or to someone else, friendship, compassion and laughter are very good tools for getting through life. A big thank you to those of you who help me remember that. Posted by Julia at 2:08 PM No comments: Yesterday I had one of those I-can't-do-this days. We moms get'em every once in a while. Maybe they correlate to hormones (our own or those of our offspring), or to the weather, or the season, or how much exercise we (or our children) are getting, or to some grand pattern in the universe that's beyond our ken. For me, February is particularly bad. When my mood heads south, it's time to learn something new. According to Wikipedia, this month gets its name comes from the Latin februum, which means purification. Maybe all the gloom and rain is purgatorial in some way? My forebears the Anglo-Saxons called it Sol-monath (mud month) and Kale-monath (after cabbage), which resonates more with my emotional experience. Though I do like cabbage. In moderation. The Finns, for whom February is apparently better than other parts of winter, focus on the beauty of the month. They call it "month of the pearl", after the the frozen droplets of water that shine on the branches of trees. The technical, linguistic term for why we don't pronounce both r's in February is dissimilation. This is different than dissimulation, which is deception. February dissimulates by getting you to believe it's not really possible to be a good mother, that your children are going to drive you nuts, that your job stinks, you made a huge mistake about ________, and it's never going to get any better. But for years I've maintained that the surest proof that God exists -- and that He's merciful -- is that even the worst day comes to an end. I suppose this is true for months, too. We're almost there. Posted by Julia at 7:57 AM 1 comment: A very thin envelope arrived for Eldest today. It was from the big college down the street. I opened it, thinking with a shock that perhaps we'd forgotten to submit some portion of the application; admissions decisions aren't due for more than a month. But it was from the admissions office. It said that Eldest was a great candidate, and though she wasn't really admitted yet, if she doesn't mess up big time between now and March 31, she can expect to receive good news when admissions are announced. Uh... oh... huh?! Hey, that's great! I had to hunt around on College Confidential for a while to find out that this kind of psst!-we-want-you notice is called a Likely Letter. I never knew such a thing existed. Apparently Likely Letters are usually sent by schools where there's no official sports recruiting to let athletes know ahead of time that they're in. Athletics aren't Eldest's forte -- Andrew claims that on his side of the family the most rigorous sport ever was turning the pages of a book -- so we're a bit mystified by this piece of good news. But hey, it is good news! Posted by Julia at 6:35 PM 1 comment: I was a senior in high school, waiting at home for my boyfriend Bruce to arrive. He was uncharacteristically late. Snow was falling heavily. Vaguely uneasy thoughts began to swirl through my head. Was he okay? Had he been in an accident? I didn't know, and in an era long before cell phones, I had no way to find out. I told myself traffic was probably slow because of the weather. I reminded myself that maybe he'd gotten a late start. And of course, (I said inwardly) it would be better if he drove carefully than if he tried to get to my house quickly. Reason worked well for a while, but as the clock ticked onward it became less effective. My stomach began to churn. I was restless, unfocused, uneasy. Finally, around 4:45 I thought, I've got to find another way to handle this worry. There are lots of possibilities about what's happened, and I don't even know what to worry about. So I'm going to wait until 5:30, which leaves him plenty of time to get here with delays, and then if he hasn't shown up I'll worry. Bruce arrived at 5:20. It's my first memory of real, pulsing anxiety. I didn't know then that the way I handled the situation -- acknowledging the worry, but setting aside a specific 'worry time' in which to indulge it -- is similar to an approach that's taught to people who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Sometimes there are things to be upset about, or to worry about, or to fear. But we can't live if we let those things dominate our every thought and moment. Setting aside a specific time and place in which to allow yourself to be upset, e.g., 9-10pm on the sofa with a cup of tea, can free up the rest of the day for more productive and positive thoughts. I'm not a worrier by nature. Perhaps that's due to disposition, or because I tend to be a rational thinker, or because I can generally talk myself down when I get wound up. I know anxiety from the outside in: I have one child with a severe anxiety disorder, and others with assorted anxiety issues. The anxiety I live with constantly is not my own. I've learned over the years that anxiety rarely looks like anxiety from the outside. It shows up as irritability or anger, mimics ADHD, or manifests itself as rigid thinking. It causes some people to withdraw and grow silent, and makes others chatter non-stop. Few adults look worried when they are anxious. Few kids cower and cry. If you're looking at a pattern of otherwise inexplicable behavior, it's worthwhile to ask if anxiety could be causing it. Here's another observation: anxiety is often seemingly inconsistent. It draws from a mix of the predictable and unexpected. A child who has trouble going to school every day may be fine flying cross-country alone. Someone who is paralyzed by asking for help may be perfectly comfortable on stage. A child may flourish one-on-one, and flounder in large groups. He may be able to give a speech in front of a class, but not know what to say in conversation. Or he may be able to give the speech one day but not another. A third observation: There are techniques -- good techniques -- that can be taught to help people overcome anxiety. There is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which boasts truly impressive results. There is medication which can help (though as the saying goes, "The pill is not the skill"). But real progress can't be made by reason alone, because the opposite of fear isn't logic, but love. Which may be why kids in particular need a good hug when they're worried or upset. Posted by Julia at 12:29 PM 1 comment: Little Guy burst into tears (and into my arms) as I walked in the door. Snuggler chanted, "I hate you! I hate you!", presumably because she was mad I'd been gone so long. Big Guy gave me a hug and told me he missed me. Andrew made coffee and bought half-and-half to celebrate. When Dancer got home, she gave me a big, long hug. It was the longest I've ever been away: four days and three nights. It was the first time I'd been away with one of the kids. (The others missed Eldest badly.) We all survived. The children were fed, and they all got where they needed to go. Whatever meltdowns occurred were not audible in Boston. The house was not a total disaster tonight (at least in the rooms I was permitted to see). Kudos to Andrew! Tomorrow life will get back to normal. I'll be up at 5:30 to bake breakfast, and we'll have school as the main item on our agenda. Slowly I'll process my impressions of the trip, and figure out what it all means. Posted by Julia at 11:35 PM No comments: Yesterday I took the kids to Chinatown, because a) it was something all ages could do together, b) the stores are fun, and c) this year there was a funky convergence of Lunar New Year and Mardi Gras that cried out for gorging on dumplings. First we went to our favorite grocery store, where we admired the $395/pound dried shark's fin (didn't buy any) and speculated about the origins of various displays of dehydrated wrinkly stuff. We bought many good things: crystallized ginger and Haw flakes and frozen pork buns. And since we've been dropping dishes left and right lately, I also bought some attractive (and unbreakable) Chinese-pattern melamine plates for $2.25 each. Then we took a long trek off the tourist trail to a little dumpling house a neighbor told us about. Once there, two of my offspring realized it wasn't at all like The Usual Place We Go. They didn't like the idea of ordering at the counter and squeezing in with noisy locals at a small portion of a table. Even the bargain price of four dumplings for a dollar didn't sway them. Everyone was tired and hungry, warming up to the kind of crankiness that occurs when low blood sugar takes hold. So we left, and walked until we got to the first legitimate-looking restaurant. There were Chinese people eating inside; I figured the food must be reasonably good. When the menus arrived we looked at the Chef's Specials, which began with jellyfish and included "Blood and chive pot" and a number of intestine dishes. Hmmmm. Authentic. The next challenge was that there were NO DUMPLINGS. Little Guy is my dumpling fanatic, and also my picky eater. Lately he's been the frontrunner for the Sarah Bernhardt award for Best Dramatic Performance When Disappointed, so I thought for sure we were in for a show. But he had the privilege of being seated right next to the fresh-fish tank, and the restaurant did offer sesame chicken (one of Little Guy's faves). So we lucked out. We ate. We were full. We were happy. On the way home we stopped at a bakery and bought sesame balls (the glutinous rice kind with bean paste in the middle) and almond cookies to munch on the train. And since I'd stocked up on frozen potstickers at the Chinese grocery, we ate dumplings for dinner. Today we're living off the accumulated calories, since it's Ash Wednesday. I'm feeling extremely penitential; I have a deadline today for a project that's nowhere near done. So here's a factoid for those of you who don't do Ash Wednesday: the ashes are made of the burned palms from last year's Palm Sunday celebration. And now I'm off to grind away. I'm leaving in the a.m. to take Eldest on a college visit, so things will probably be silent here until Sunday. Gong Xi Fa Cai (Happy New Year), and Happy (?) Lent to you. Posted by Julia at 2:41 PM 1 comment: We walked past this book in a store yesterday, and Little Guy laughed out loud. We didn't stop to look and see what it's about, but wow -- what a great title! Posted by Julia at 2:31 PM No comments: Eldest snuggled up last night, and asked me a lot of what-ifs about college. Dozens and dozens of what-ifs: roommates and boyfriends and failing out and alcohol and you name it, it was on her mind. Some of the questions I answered, others I said, "Eh...you'd figure that out." For that's partly what college is, no? Finding out how to solve life problems on your own; messing up, and figuring out how to recover. Discovering who you are when you're standing on your own. And realizing that the way out of worry involves thinking in terms of probability, not possibility. Gosh, but I love that girl! What if I'd never had her? What if I hadn't been given the gift of raising this marvelous human being? What if I hadn't been challenged to grow into a better person by becoming a mom? How much smaller and grayer my life would have been! Labels: college, Eldest It dawned on me one morning that most parental-child friction occurs when agendas collide. Friction between adults usually has other sources, like different opinions or values. But with children an amazing amount of difficulty can be resolved if we stop and recognize our own agendas, and how they contribute to the problem. This came to me as I stood on one side of the subway turnstile waiting for Snuggler, who couldn't find her transit pass. For once it didn't matter if we were late, so I was able to set aside my agenda (getting somewhere on time) and simply deal with hers. Being able to say, "Okay, I can wait" -- and then wait patiently while a train came and went -- put a spotlight on how often time limitations contribute to my handling of situations in a less than optimal way. Getting kids out the door takes up a ridiculous amount of energy. It's particularly irritating because we parents have a mental list of 53 things to do before we leave, and all they have to do is find their shoes and put them on. But kids don't grasp the concept of time tradeoffs easily. I made progress recently with Little Guy, who had been taking forever to do schoolwork and then bemoaning his lack of playtime, by using money as an analogy for time. "If you have a dollar and you spend it, it's gone. You have whatever you bought with it, and that might be something good, or it might be something worthless. But once it's gone, it's gone." It helped a lot to have something tangible to connect to an abstract idea. Now when I say, "Do you want to spend your time that way?" it has a different connection in his brain. But the whole thing about having different agendas... well, it's a thing. It's not always possible to work around a kid's agenda, and it wouldn't be healthy, anyway. So perhaps the thing to do is to try to be more aware of our own agendas and tone them down a bit. Or else maybe back up our targeted departure time by five minutes, to provide a little more cushion. I blame it on my parents. My mom gave birth to me in February, so Valentine's Day was always a lesser event than my birthday party. Then my folks taught me the art of non-sentimental gift-giving. One year my father gave my non-gardening mom a wheelbarrow for Mother's Day. My mom rallied with a women's bicycle for Father's Day. The most memorable present, though, was a truckload of manure that Mom ordered one year. For Dad's garden, she said. With romantic examples like that, roses just never took on the allure for me that they have for others. Still, on a whim I looked at Valentine's Day cards yesterday. After poking through syrup-saturated To My Husband poems and confused lust love messages, I decided not to spend $2.75 to have someone who doesn't know me say what I ought to say myself. Just to prove that I've got nothing against Valentine's Day, I might even tell Andrew today that I love him. He did, after all, give me Tupperware for my birthday. And new shower curtains. Gotta love a guy who knows what makes my heart go pit-a-pat! Ivy Edison Ivy was a small woman with a big heart. She lived in a housing project in Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn, along with her 40+ year old son. Butchie had been injured at birth; when I knew him, his skull was still misshapen from what I assume was a botched use of forceps at delivery. Butchie couldn't walk, had limited physical abilities, spoke sparingly, and spent most of his time cheerfully watching his favorite TV shows. Ivy also had a daughter. I never met Gwinette; she died of cancer at about age 40. I helped out at Gwinette's funeral, at which the pastor preached an amazing sermon about how when someone dies we feel as if we've been dismembered, and how Christ said, "Do this in remembrance of me" at the Last Supper, and hence in the eucharist we are re-membered in and through Him. We also sang "Jerusalem, My Happy Home", which is one of the songs I want sung at my own funeral. But I digress. I was single and in my late 20's, working as an assistant VP at a money management firm when I met Ivy. She sat in the front right pew at church. Someone later told me that this was because when Ivy was a girl, St. Paul's was one of the few places where African Americans were allowed to sit up front. I don't know why Ivy took an interest in a yuppie white girl, but every Sunday she took the trouble to say hello and find something to talk to about. I enjoyed her no-nonsense style. It was refreshing, especially in light of my own self-centeredness. Ivy was short and squat and she never complained about her life. She had things to be thankful for, things I had trouble fathoming, like that she'd never had to institutionalize Butchie, and that Gwinette had been able to have a decent career before she died. Ivy was also very proud of her home. One day Ivy mentioned in passing that her kitchen ceiling needed painting, and without thinking twice I offered to do it for her. So one Saturday I climbed on a bus in downtown Brooklyn, and headed up to Bed-Stuy. Truth be told, I was kind of scared. I was going somewhere new, and that somewhere was smack in the heart of what was then one of the most scarred and drug-ridden neighborhoods in the city. I felt like I had a neon sign flashing over my head saying, "Victim here!" I sat on the bus feeling very white, so I thought about all the times when there had been only one African-American in one of my classes, and about Ivy riding the same bus every Sunday, and about how many other Ivy's were probably right around me whom I couldn't appreciate because I was scared. I tried very hard to look like I knew what I was doing and where I was going. The bus let me off across the street from Ivy's building. It was the kind of high-rise project that makes the papers every now and then because of unworking elevators and robberies in hallways and gang activity. I had a hard time thinking of Ivy living there. Her apartment was on one of the upper floors. I was infinitely thankful the elevator was functioning. But once the door shut on the gray, ill-lit hallway, I forgot my fears. Ivy lived here. This was Ivy's home, cozy and cluttered, safe and solid. There was plastic on the good sofa and there were hand-crocheted doilies on the end tables. Ivy introduced me to Butchie with pride, then sat down and showed me family pictures. Only after an hour of getting to know Ivy better was I allowed to paint the ceiling. It didn't take long, maybe a couple of hours. You'd think I'd swum the Atlantic to bring Ivy diamonds, she was so happy with the results. Then Ivy made me lunch and showed me more pictures, and told more stories. Whoever Mr. Ivy was, he'd skeddadled long ago, when the kids were little. There wasn't a drop of self-pity in Ivy's voice as she told me about it. She was matter-of-fact about Butchie, too, and about friends who had died or gone astray. I learned that day that Ivy's family was originally from the West Indies. Her birthday was September 8. When she'd moved into the housing project when it opened, it was the most beautiful place in the world. I discovered that Ivy was a talented seamstress. (Years later, she adjusted my mother's wedding gown so I could wear it at my own wedding.) I went home on the bus, no longer afraid of Bed-Stuy. Whatever else it had, it had Ivy. Ivy was a strong woman. She was not afraid of life. She was thankful for what there was to be thankful for, and accepting of what needed to be accepted. I heard myself think When I grow up, I want to be like her! Posted by Julia at 9:50 AM 1 comment: We have a big park right up the street, which has some glorious sledding hills. But in the middle of the day, when homeschool's done and mom has to work, the simple solution to outdoor time is to go down into the building's courtyard and sled down the steps. It's a short ride, but nice and fast! Posted by Julia at 12:12 PM 3 comments: Last night I was in the local pharmacy and ran into a dad I know. I asked after his kids, and he said one of them was sick. Then he picked up a made-in-China florescent green plastic ring from a display on the counter and mused, "I wonder if I should bring her a ring." I replied, "Nah. Send the money to Haiti instead." He (and everyone else nearby) looked startled for a moment, then nodded. As the dad left he said, "I'll tell her that." Can you tell Haiti's on my mind? My mental back burner has been simmering for weeks now, trying to connect certain dots that don't want to form a coherent picture: Dot #1: Children (and adults) in Haiti are suffering unimaginably, and are going to continue to suffer for a long time to come. Dot #2:There's not really anything left in our family budget to cut. I can't give out of fat; if I'm going to give, it has to be out of flesh and bone. Dot #3: My kids have certain needs that reflect their natural gifts (and natural weaknesses). I have an obligation to do my best for them. A couple of things are gradually dawning on me. One is that when I think of what ingredients can go into a "solve the inequities of the world" pie, I don't include a substantive decrease in my family's standard of living as an option. A related reality is that although I am not, by American standards, an ungenerous person (we do aim to give 10% of our income to charity), my ideas on what it means to be generous are limited by a large hazy zone between need and want. The other day I idly thought, "If I gave up drinking coffee, I could probably save a child's life with the money I saved over a year." Give up coffee?! My reaction to that thought slammed me up against the reality that, on some I-don't-want-to-go-there level, my morning coffee is more important to me than someone else's life. I've long been aware that I suffer from what I call the Yardstick Problem. I have a tendency to assume that the yardstick of well-being begins about a half-inch below where I am, and extends upward to where everyone else seems to be. In the big city, where there are people who have a lot of money, this is absurd. I need to constantly recalibrate my thinking to remember that I live in the top two inches of the yardstick. I recalibrate mainly by bringing to mind various stick-to-your-heart anecdotes that I've picked up over the years: the volunteer speaker from Food for the Poor who told of a boy who cried as hamburger patties were being handed out, because "It's my sister's turn to eat today"; a vignette from a book on Mother Theresa, which mentioned in passing a family that slept in shifts in their shack, because there wasn't room for everyone at once; the series of stories the NY Times ran in 2006 about easily preventable diseases like Guinea worm, blinding trachoma, measles and lymphatic filariasis, and how they cripple and destroy lives. I tell my children that the first step in becoming a thoughtful person is to become an observant one. You can't help the old lady get into the shop with her walker if you don't notice her struggling. I can't do much to rectify the problems of the world if I don't notice how stuck I am in myself and my inch of yardstick. One place I'm stuck is in thinking I'm not among the rich, just because my budget doesn't flow as smoothly as it used to. People can feel poor no matter where they are on the yardstick.Some people feel poor because they can't go on vacation one year, others because their life is dominated by a constant struggle to juggle bills and cash flow. I have a friend who confessed to scrounging change from the sofa cushions to buy pasta for dinner on night, and another who has foregone dental care for years so that she can pay for her kids' dentist. But these are all a far cry from being unable to treat a serious medical problem, or having your kids go hungry because you can't feed them. It's a long way from being homeless or in danger of dying from lack of food. It's helpful to examine what we think is iconic of being poor, because it helps us to calibrate the richness of our lives relative to the rest of the world. It gives us a way to remember how blessed we are... and how much we have available to give to those who have less. More on this another time... Posted by Julia at 4:24 PM 4 comments: This is the command center This part moves up and down Here's how it's attached Ummm... yeah. I think we need to review the DTR (Duct Tape Rules). Ironically, after building this Little Guy watched Meet the Robinsons. Which I obviously didn't know anything about, because although I tend to encourage the inventing streak, I think we've just ramped up a couple of notches. Posted by Julia at 11:18 AM 1 comment: I warn you that you will waste significant time if you go to the Improv Everywhere site. You will also laugh out loud, so don't do it at work. Very, very silly. I'd seen the "Human Mirror" video before, but hadn't realized there's a whole series of "missions" that this group has done. I particularly like the spontaneous musicals. Posted by Julia at 7:23 AM No comments: Just out of curiosity: does anyone else have a husband who introduces the kids to the Last Night at the Proms... and kids who then spend days researching and memorizing the lyrics to God Save the Queen, Rule Brittania, (and other British favorites), making British flags for all their stuffed animals, and setting up a stuffed animal orchestra? It's been a bit curious around here. We had our annual Super Bowl party last night. We don't have cable, and our regular TV reception is so poor it looks like a blizzard, so we didn't watch the game. But every year we honor the football fanatics of our nation on this important day by eating junk food for dinner. Last night's menu consisted of popcorn, dry roasted peanuts, tater tots, hummus with carrots and pita, potato chips, and seltzer. (Normally I make nachos, but the store was out of tortilla chips.) Eldest, who came shopping with me, was a bit concerned that perhaps not everything qualified as junk food. I assured her that next year we'll do better. Case in point: this year not only did I find out which teams were playing, I also made note of who won the game. Posted by Julia at 8:27 AM 1 comment: Turned out that the book group was tonight instead of tomorrow (thank you, Rebecca, for the reminder!) It was a terrific discussion. Snuggler didn't go, but all five of the other girls enjoyed Call of the Wild and had a lot to say about it. We also learned that Jack London was a celebrity endorser of grape juice. Who knew? He was an oyster pirate, too, a term which prompted some rather funny mental visuals before we found out what it meant. I was really quite surprised at the enthusiasm these 10- and 11-year old girls had for the rather raw and rough writing. I enjoy Jack London, but in small doses with ample time in between readings; like Hemingway, he's too masculine for me to take in big draughts. As I grow older I tend to prefer non-fiction to fiction, anyway. I've wondered if that's because by now I've seen enough human frailty and folly in real life that I don't need more from books. I still appreciate subtlety, the truly tragic hero or heroine, the well-drawn humorous character, the ingenious plot twist. I get bored when I'm expected to wallow in prosaic psychological stresses and sexual interests and American greed/self-centeredness/middle-class angst. What I yearn for is beauty... characters who renew my sense of hope... insight into who I want to be when I grow up. I want fresh ways of looking at problems, and inspiration to do the right thing, and the motivation to get up and keep moving when I'm worn down. Right now it's easier to get that by reading non-fiction. But if you've read any good novels lately that meet some of my criteria, let me know. I'm always up for a good read. Posted by Julia at 11:39 PM No comments: Our mother-daughter book club is meeting this Sunday, and the assignment is Call of the Wild. A bit strong for a group of 5th and 6th graders (and Snuggler, who is in 3rd). I'll be interested to see what the girls think. Last month we did Witch of Blackbird Pond, which was just about perfect for that age group. No one would have dreamed of doing Call of the Wild, except it's given as an example in Deconstructing Penguins. If you have school-age kids and don't own Deconstructing Penguins, you need to buy it. It is the best, most insightful book there is on how to run a book group for kids and adults. (Not that I feel strongly about it, or anything.) Even if you don't want to have a book group, it's worth reading for ideas on how to talk about chapter books with children. On a separate educational note, I've decided we can probably skip all the sections of Little Guy's math books that cover measurement. He has been toting a retractable measuring tape around for the past few days, measuring everything in both inches and centimeters, and trying to convert from inches to feet. It helps that the measuring tape is soft (rather than metal), so we haven't had any sliced fingers from that nifty zippy snap when the retraction button is pushed. Last night Snuggler had to do her physics homework. Her science class at Co-op is using the Real Science 4 Kids curriculum, which I find very solid and yet kid-friendly. The assignment for yesterday was on gravitational potential energy, and the homework was to drop a book from various heights onto a peanut, to see when it cracked open. We rigged up a ruler between two blocks, so we could measure how high above the peanut we were starting. Then Snuggler hauled out The Complete Sherlock Holmes. (No, she hasn't been reading it; Big Guy and Eldest just finished.) Dontcha know that 1,122-page tome can crack open a peanut from a height of two inches? Go, Sherlock! Then we decided to see what would happen if we used a less ponderous volume. We tried Voyages in English 3 (which we're not using this year), which is a tad more than 200 pages. That took a drop of 12" to crack a peanut. We don't have a scientific scale here, but weighed Sherlock on our regular bathroom scale, and it came out at 6.2 pounds.Voyages was too light to register on the scale. I tried to get Snuggler to figure out how much Voyages ought to weigh, based on what we knew about Sherlock and the weight and height needed to crack a peanut with it. Either that was too abstract or I worded the question poorly, because she had no idea what I was talking about. Then I made a table headed like this: Book name Height * Weight = gravitational potential energy We filled in the info we had for each book, and lo and behold it suddenly looked like a math problem, where the only missing information was how much Voyages weighed. Needless to say, Little Guy was into smashing peanuts with books, too. Given the mess that was created, it was a good thing the prior lesson was on WORK. Posted by Julia at 7:19 AM No comments: I have no memory for other people's birthdays. There is an amazing array of useless stuff cluttering my gray matter, and a lacuna where the birthday info is supposed to be stored. Once I took one of my kids to the emergency room, and the clerk at check-in asked, "Child's date of birth?" I glared at him and said, "That's not fair." But I did eventually figure it out. About three years ago (more than a dozen years into my marriage) I finally came up with a way to remember Andrew's birthday. That was exhilarating. But I still have to re-calculate the date every time I need to know it. I can get it to within one or two days pretty easily, but then it gets tough. This is true of my dad's birthday, too. I know it's either Feb 1 or Feb 2. I seem to recall it's not the same as Groundhog's Day, which would mean it was yesterday. Which means I missed it, because I can't remember when Groundhog's Day is, either, until it shows up in the news. Happy birthday anyway, Dad. I love you. Posted by Julia at 7:34 AM No comments: There was much excitement here this afternoon, as both the new science kits and the K'nex MotoBots for Little Guy arrived. I must say, the MotoBots are pretty cool. It took Little Guy and Snuggler a solid 90 minutes to put the first one together, though we still have to add the arms. Tonight Little Guy simply couldn't stand the idea that he'd have to wait until tomorrow to start his volcano kit. We've done the usual baking soda and vinegar explosions many times; this is a kit with far more detail about the different kinds of volcanoes, and it includes a plastic model with several imitations of real-life volcanoes (Mount St. Helens, Mauna Loa, Santorini, etc.). There's a page with suggestions of which colors to put where. Little Guy didn't like any of those ideas, and had his own. He didn't want greenery anywhere ("Why do I have to put in plant life?") and after fending off a few gentle ideas from Snuggler and me he put on a weary look and sighed, "Mom, I just want to stretch my creative expression!" So... he's stretching away. P.S. He later decided that greenery was a good idea after all. I noted, "You have many types of green here." He replied, "Hues, Mom. Hues." Posted by Julia at 8:17 PM 1 comment: A while back I went to a presentation at Eldest's school about college financial aid. The speaker directs fin aid at an Ivy League school. He said, "If there are only four words you remember from tonight, let them be these: NEVER MISS A DEADLINE." Amazingly, I remembered that. I filed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) last night. It's not difficult, but -- heads up -- you do need to have a pretty good idea of what your tax return is going to look like. Early. Very early. Keep track of your earnings info the year you're going to file. The greater challenge is the CSS Profile, which requires far more information. (You want to supply more info about your expenses, since the Feds' formula is inanely simplistic and pretty much comes down to income and how many people are in your family.) I couldn't finish the Profile last night because apparently a bunch of colleges have Feb 1 deadlines for it, and the CSS system was catatonic. I was dumped and had to re-start a couple of times, which would have been stress-producing if I'd absolutely needed to file last night. So -- second heads up -- pretend your deadline's at least three days before it actually is, so that the empty spot in the nest next year isn't you (in jail for murder) instead of your college student. (Our deadline is Feb 15, so I'm waiting until Feb 2 to file the Profile.) Eldest applied to three schools, two of which only require the FAFSA and the Profile. The third has its own form, which amounted to an "Is Your Parent Smart Enough for You to Go Here?" test. I think I passed, but only because it was open book and I was able to review my answers several times before submitting them. If your child plans to apply to a dozen colleges, check out how many financial aid forms you're going to have to complete before you approve her list. Though I'm not really done with the Profile, I felt somewhat heroic last night. I can already see that this won't be as intimidating the second time through. I find it useful (though not enjoyable) to stagger through a completely new and unasked-for experience every now and then. I think that, as adults who have mostly mastered the little things in life, we forget how uncomfy new experiences can be for kids. I'm more sympathetic when I have a fresh memory of that AAAAAAck! feeling. Posted by Julia at 7:29 AM 2 comments:

Methylhexanamine (also known as methylhexamine, 1,3-dimethylamylamine, 1,3-DMAA, 1,3-amphetamine, dimethylamylamine, and DMAA; trade names Forthane and Geranamine) is an indirect sympathomimetic drug invented and developed by Eli Lilly and Company and marketed as an inhaled nasal decongestant from 1948 until it was voluntarily withdrawn from the market in the 1970s.[2] 115.21658 g/mol g·mol−1 Since 2006 methylhexanamine has been sold extensively under many names as a stimulant or energy-boosting dietary supplement under the claim that it is similar to certain compounds found in geraniums, but its safety has been questioned as a number of adverse events and at least five deaths have been associated with methylhexanamine-containing supplements.[3] It is banned by many sports authorities and governmental agencies. Despite multiple warning letters from the FDA,[4] as of 2019, the stimulant remains available in sports and weight loss supplements.[5] In April 1944, Eli Lilly and Company introduced methylhexanamine under the brand name Forthane as an inhaled nasal decongestant; Lilly voluntarily withdrew methylhexanamine from the market in 1983.[6]:12 The compound is an aliphatic amine; the pharmaceutical industry had a strong interest in compounds in this class as nasal decongestants in the early 20th century, which led to methylhexanamine and four other similar compounds being brought to market for that use: tuaminoheptane, octin, oenethyl, and propylhexedrine; octin and oenethyl were eventually approved for use in keeping blood pressure sufficiently high for patients under anesthesia.[7]:95–96 Patrick Arnold reintroduced methylhexanamine in 2006 as a dietary supplement,[8][9] after the final ban of ephedrine in the United States in 2005. Arnold introduced it under the trademarked name Geranamine, a name held by his company, Proviant Technologies. A large number of supplements focusing on fat loss and workout energy (thermogenic or general-purpose stimulants) used the ingredient in concert with other substances such as caffeine, a combination similar to the combination of ephedrine and caffeine. Methylhexanamine-containing supplements sometimes list "geranium oil" or "geranium extract" as a source of methylhexanamine. However, geranium oils do not contain methylhexanamine, and the methylhexanamine in these supplements is added in the form of synthetic material.[10] A variety of studies have explored the possibility that DMAA is found in some types of geraniums, but at present, high quality evidence of DMAA's presence in plants is lacking.[11][12] Methylhexanamine is synthesized by reacting 4-methylhexan-2-one with hydroxylamine, which converts the 4-methylhexan-2-one to 4-methylhexan-2-one oxime, which is reduced with hydrogen by means of a catalyst; the resulting methylhexanamine can be purified by distillation.[13]:995–996 Methylhexanamine is an indirect sympathomimetic drug that constricts blood vessels and thus has effects on the heart, lungs, and reproductive organs. It also causes bronchodilation, inhibits peristalsis in the intestines, and has diuretic effects.[7]:95 Most studies have been done on pharmacological effects when the drug is inhaled; the understanding of what methylhexanamine does when taken orally are mostly based on extrapolating from the activities of similar compounds.[7]:97 A 2013 review concluded that: "Pharmacological effects after oral intake can be expected on the lungs (bronchodilation) and the nasal mucosa following a single oral dose of about 4–15 mg. Pharmacological effects on the heart can be expected following a single oral dose of about 50–75 mg. Pharmacological effects on the blood pressure can be expected after a single oral dose of about 100 mg. Because of the long half-life, there is a risk that repeated doses within 24–36 hours could lead to steadily stronger pharmacological effects (build-up)."[7]:98 Methylhexanamine may be quantified in blood, plasma, or urine by gas or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to confirm a diagnosis of poisoning in hospitalized patients or to provide evidence in a medicolegal death investigation. Blood or plasma methylhexanamine concentrations are expected to be in a range of 10–100 μg/l in persons using the drug recreationally, >100 μg/l in intoxicated patients, and >300 μg/l in victims of acute overdosage.[14][15] The LD50 for methylhexanamine is 39 mg/kg in mice and 72.5 mg/kg in rats, when administered intravenously.[7]:95[16]:110 The FDA has stated that methylhexanamine "is known to narrow the blood vessels and arteries, which can elevate blood pressure and may lead to cardiovascular events ranging from shortness of breath and tightening in the chest to heart attack".[17] Numerous adverse events and at least five deaths have been reported in association with methylhexanamine-containing dietary supplements.[3] A 2012 review by a panel convened by the U.S. Department of Defense to study whether the military should ban methylhexanamine supplements from stores on its bases concluded that: "The existing evidence does not conclusively establish that DMAA-containing substances are causally-associated with adverse medical events. However, a consistent theme among the studies is that DMAA use potentially affects cardiovascular function, just as other sympathomimetic stimulants. Without further rigorous study designs developed to evaluate the safety of DMAA, especially in patients with concomitant use of other substances, co-morbid conditions and high frequency use, the magnitude of the association of DMAA with adverse medical events is uncertain. Widespread use of DMAA-containing products by tens of thousands of Service members – often in combination with other substances – increases the likelihood of observing serious adverse events, even if the overall risk of a DMAA-related event is low, resulting in consequential impact to some Service members and other beneficiaries. DMAA should be further studied to evaluate its safety. Data from the case control study suggest that the frequency and amount of DMAA use and risk of specific [acquired medical events], particularly heat injuries and rhabdomyolysis, need to be examined in greater detail. ... The Safety Review Panel recommended ... to continue the prohibition of sales of DMAA-containing products in Exchanges and concessions. The Panel judged that the evidence supports sufficient risk, even if very low, of another death or catastrophic illness of a Service member who has used DMAA-containing products, without any offsetting benefit of these products."[6]:10 A 2012 review of the regulatory status of DMAA found that "1,3-Dimethylamylamine (DMAA) is a pressor amine often found in food supplements for athletes at dosages of 25–⁠65 mg. Historically, the compound has been used as a nasal decongestant but its oral application is largely unstudied leaving the regulatory status of such food supplements as unlicensed medicines undetermined. We therefore reviewed the literature on DMAA and similar amines in order to deduce an effective oral dosage. Based on our findings we conclude that oral preparations with >4 mg DMAA per dose unit should be considered as effective as a bronchodilator. Food supplements that exceed that limit are in fact subject to the Medicines Act and require licensing. Dosages higher than 100–⁠200 mg are expected to cause serious adverse events."[7]:93 In 2010, a 21-year-old male in New Zealand presented with a cerebral hemorrhage after ingesting 556 mg of methylhexanamine, caffeine, and alcohol.[18] Health authorities in Hawaii linked cases of liver failure and one death to OxyElite Pro.[19] The death of Claire Squires, a runner who collapsed near the finish-line of the April 2012 London Marathon, has been linked to methylhexanamine. The coroner stated that methylhexanamine was "probably an important factor" during the inquest. Despite, according to a friend, having been diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat[20] - and advised not to consume methylhexanamine, it is believed that she consumed the substance through drinking an energy drink, which was subsequently reformulated to exclude methylhexanamine.[21] Many professional and amateur sports bodies, such as the World Anti Doping Agency, have banned methylhexanamine as a performance-enhancing substance and suspended athletes that have used it.[22][23][24][25][26][27] March, 2012, a minor league baseball player, Cody Stanley, was suspended 50 games for testing positive after using a dietary supplement.[28] In July 2012, Welsh boxer Enzo Maccarinelli was banned for six months after testing positive for methylhexanamine.[29] VFL player Matthew Clark was suspended for two years after the banned substance was detected in his system after a game in 2011.[30] August, 2012, minor league baseball player Marcus Stroman was suspended 50 games for testing positive for methylhexanamine.[31] On 8 August 2013, US Weightlifter Brian Wilhelm accepted a nine-month suspension after testing positive for the drug in a urine sample from December 2012 at the American Open.[32] MotoGP rider Anthony West was suspended for one month by the FIM International Disciplinary Court (CDI) on 29 October 2012 after testing positive for the drug on 20 May 2012 at the French Grand Prix. This was increased retroactively to an 18-month suspension, starting from 20 May 2012, on 28 November 2013 after an appeal by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).[33] In December 2013, boxer Brandon Rios, after losing a unanimous decision to Manny Pacquiao, was suspended by the China Professional Boxing Association after testing positive for the drug.[34] During the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, three athletes tested positive for the drug: Italian bobsleigh brakeman and former decathlete William Frullani, German biathlete Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle and Latvian ice hockey forward Vitalijs Pavlovs.[35][36] During the 2015 Asian Cup, Iraqi player Alaa Abdul-Zahra was subject to an investigation relating to illegal usage of the drug.[37] In January 2016, Algerian footballer Kheiredine Merzougi was banned for two years by the Confederation of African Football after testing positive for the drug.[38] However, in March 2016, the international body FIFA confirmed they were giving an extended four-year ban to apply worldwide through January 2020.[39] In November 2016, Heavyweight boxer Bermane Stiverne was fined for 75,000 dollars after testing positive for methylhexanamine by the World Boxing Council.[40] The WBC, however, still allowed this fight to happen. In 2017, the International Olympic Committee disqualified Jamaica's 2008 gold-winning 4x100 men's relay in Beijing due to Nesta Carter's positive testing for methylhexanamine. This cost Usain Bolt a medal.[41] AMA Supercross Championship rider Broc Tickle was provisionally suspended by the FIM International Disciplinary Court (CDI) on 13 April 2018 after testing positive for the drug following a drug test after the supercross round held in San Diego on 10 February 2018.[42] In May 22, 2018, Filipino basketball player Kiefer Ravena was handed 18 months suspension by FIBA to compete in international competition. He was found testing positive for methylhexanamine and 1,3-dimethlybutylamine by WADA. Urine samples were taken after the Philippines vs Japan game at Manila during the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup Qualification. Ravena explained that he consumes a pre-workout drink called C4, which can be bought from retailers around Metro Manila. He ran out of supplies shortly before a training camp in Australia and took Blackstone Labs DUST, a supplement which is mixed with water and is supposedly similar to C4.[43] On August 26, 2019, NASCAR crew chief Matt Borland was indefinitely suspended under the sanctioning body's substance abuse policy after testing positive for DMAA. In a statement, Borland said that the positive test was most likely caused by a diet coffee he had felt comfortable drinking "after doing my due diligence." Team owner Bob Germain Jr. also said that he did not believe Borland “had reason to know that the coffee contained a banned substance. However, we also understand and respect NASCAR’s decisions to strictly uphold their policies for each and every owner, driver and crew member in the garage." [44] The suspension was lifted on September 24th after completing NASCAR's mandatory "Road to Recovery Program". [45] In 2010, the US military issued a recall of all methylhexanamine-containing products from all military exchange stores worldwide.[46][47] In July 2011, Health Canada decided methylhexanamine was not a dietary substance, but was a drug requiring further approval. Consequently, Health Canada banned all sales of methylhexanamine.[48] In June 2012, the National Food Agency of Sweden issued a general warning regarding use of methylhexanamine products, resulting in a sales ban in parts of the country.[49] In July 2012, the National Health Surveillance Agency of Brazil issued a warning to the general public on the hazards of products that contain methylhexanamine.[50] It also updated the list of prohibited substances to insert methylhexanamine, which translates into the banishment of products containing such ingredient from the Brazilian market.[51] In 2012, Australia banned methylhexanamine. In New South Wales, methylhexanamine was classed as a "highly dangerous substance" on the poisons list.[52] In August 2012, the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has ruled that the popular DMAA containing sports supplement Jack3D is an unlicensed medicinal product and that it and all other methylhexanamine containing products need to be removed from the UK market amid concerns of potential risks to public safety.[53] In 2012 the New Zealand Ministry of Health banned the sale of methylhexanamine products,[54] due in part to its growing recreational use as party pills.[55][56] In April 2013, the US Food and Drug Administration determined that methylhexanamine was potentially dangerous and did not qualify as a legal dietary supplement; it warned supplement makers that it was illegal to market methylhexanamine and warned consumers of potentially serious health risks associated with methylhexanamine-containing products.[3][57] The FDA has issued warning letters to manufacturers and distributors who continued to market products containing methylhexanamine.[58] ^ Cohen, Pieter A.

ANALYSIS-U.S. drilling boom leaves some homeowners in a big hole | Reuters December 12, 2013 / 12:04 PM / 4 years ago Dec 12 (Reuters) - When Gary Gless bought his sleek, modernist house in Los Angeles in 2002, he thought he had hit a “gold mine.” The world’s largest inner-city park - featuring a lush, 18-hole golf course - was about to get built across the street. Gless’s balcony was set to overlook the clubhouse and first tee. Freeport-McMoRan, part of Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc , said that, for the past three years, its surveys of the oilfield and surrounding communities have found no connection between its activities and “localized claims of property damage.” It said it would continue to evaluate the issue. “You go to buy a home, you see that it has a well pad in the backyard, and essentially you might say I‘m not willing to pay very much for this house,” said Elisheba Spiller, an economist at the Environmental Defense Fund. “That’s where the drop in value comes in.”

Cycles: Shadeless "Shadow-catcher" Material for Rendering onto Footage - Blender Stack Exchange I am superimposing CGI over video footage, and have run into a problem in making materials for objects that act as 'shadow catchers'. Essentially I want a shader that is shadeless—like an emitter—but catches shadows and light from other objects. This is so I can reconstruct objects in footage so other objects in the scene interact convincingly with them. Here's an overcomplicated diagram to illustrate my point: (In this particular scenario, the problem could be glossed over by using RGB curves, but that is definitely not the case with more complicated scenes) Isn't this a common situation? How to the real guys do it? Thank you. (I am welcome suggestions of other ways of doing this.) JollywattJollywatt $\begingroup$ Yep, this is one of those features that's been on the wanted list for a while. It'll be added sometime, hopefully in the near future..

See developer.blender.org/D1788 $\endgroup$ – PhoneixS Oct 4 '16 at 15:21 $\begingroup$ Related: blender.stackexchange.com/q/518/28015 $\endgroup$ – JakeD Apr 28 '18 at 2:37 Note: this solution may not work for everyone...you give up some control because changing the appearance of the shadow can only be done in the compositor AFAIK. See the end of my answer for more details. There is a simpler way to build a basic shadow catcher now, thanks to Blender 2.78c. There is no longer even a need for a material, just enable "Shadow Catcher" in the Cycles Settings panel in the shadow catcher plane's object settings. For more advanced tweaking of the new shadow catcher, you can add a material to the plane as detailed in this article: https://cgjam.net/how-to-use-the-shadow-catcher-in-cycles-2-79/ See here for more info, or the section in the Blender manual here. This image literally took less than ten minutes to make thanks to this free model by MAC2001, this free model by hasapeta, Greg Zaal's amazing, free HDRIs, and this new Blender feature. This solution is not easily adjusted, however, as Jeroslav notes in the comments: Unfortunately this method is very limited and will provide only black shadows, no color bleed...For someone it may work, but this does not produce correct result in general. You can actually get somewhat more control over this shadow method by putting the shadow catcher on its own render layer and playing with it in the compositor. In this case, I put the shadow catcher on a different layer that had the layers that my cars were on as a mask layer. Enable the environment pass for one of the layers so you can get the HDRI in the compositor. Here is a possible compositor node setup (note that I just made this so that it looks right to me, this is not technically "correct"). In this case, I gave the lefthand value of the compositor a slightly bluish tint as well as making it brighter (of course) to change the shadow color. answered Apr 28 '18 at 2:36 6,40322 gold badges1515 silver badges5555 bronze badges $\begingroup$ Unfortunately this method is very limited and will provide only black shadows, no color bleed. You should also include the negatives in the answer so it does not seem equivalent. For someone it may work, but this does not produce correct result in general. $\endgroup$ – Jaroslav Jerryno Novotny Apr 28 '18 at 13:31 $\begingroup$ @JaroslavJerrynoNovotny I've played around with it some more and edited my answer... $\endgroup$ – JakeD Apr 28 '18 at 14:18 Divide objects into 2 scene layers, move actors (Suzanne) onto layer 1, move backgrounds onto second layer, place lights into both of them. Setup 3 render layers - First for layer 1, second for layer 2 and third for layer 2 with layer 1 excluded: Render it with transparent bacgrounds, it will produce results like this: In compositor divide render layer 2 (BG_With_Shadow) with 3 (BG_Clean) - you now have a shadow to multiply over your backdrop and layer 1 to composite into backdrop: answered Dec 10 '14 at 7:53 $\begingroup$ Instead of the Subtract node, I recommend the Divide Node. The goal is to multiply the result with any image: So bg_with_shadow needs to be divided by bg_clean to get the factor, bg_clean needs to be multiplied with to get the bg_with_shadow version. $\endgroup$ – Random Citizen Feb 7 '17 at 21:47 $\begingroup$ @RandomCitizen Yep you are right. Divide is not only recommended it is needed, the subtract-invert math is wrong. Thanks for pointing this out. $\endgroup$ – Jaroslav Jerryno Novotny Feb 7 '17 at 22:17 $\begingroup$ I tried this, and instead of getting white I got gray. The solution was using Default view in color management. I suspect the log color of filmic is to blame, but I don't know enough to have filmic and true shadow catching for now. Edit: I was using photoshop to composite the shadow and object (for a class) and was noting that the grey was affecting the whole image from a multiplication blending perspective. The visual grey was indeed grey to photoshop. Using EXR's solved my problem and I was able to use filmic. $\endgroup$ – Boris N Feb 22 at 22:37 $\begingroup$ @BorisN please ask this as a question and post your own answer. Others with a similar issue can benefit from your experience, and you can also get other answers on the same topic. $\endgroup$ – cegaton Feb 22 at 23:56 One little idea: use built-in camera tracking. Then scene will be prepared for you by Blender. This is, I think, the simplest way. Maybe it won't work in your case, I don't know! Camera tracking in blender has the ability to set up the scene. Then it writes everything you need into the composer, and just by creating the ground plane and extruding it, you should receive the result of shadow catcher. Basically, the ground plane in camera tracking is the shadow catcher. edited Mar 25 at 14:59 answered Mar 25 at 14:45 Богдан ОпирБогдан Опир Not the answer you're looking for?

BBC News - Father and daughter in Havant barbecue fire Father and daughter in Havant barbecue fire A Hampshire father and his three-year-old daughter were taken to hospital with burns after petrol was used on a barbecue. Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service received a call at 15:51 BST on Friday to a house in Wildmoor Walk, West Leigh, Havant. The pair suffered from burns to their arms and legs. Watch manager Craig Sadler said the consequences could have been "catastrophic". He added: "You should never use any kind of accelerant when cooking on a barbecue. "Not only can the fire quickly spread causing damage to your property, more importantly the out-of-control fire can put people at risk of getting burnt."

Pakistan’s independence day message to government and people of pakis… From Arab News To Innovation Manage... Why the rulers and their subordinates are careless? They are careless because they have no fear of law. They are fearless because they know that constitution provides them immunity! This is what my enemies are taking advantage of and I will prove that. Article 248 of the constitution is discussed more than any other article during the miserably crawling tenure of present government. So much have been said and written about this article that if compiled the stuff will turn into a heavy book in weight but weightless in making any sense. The article has adverse repercussions far beyond the personal conduct of the President when it is read together with Articles 99 of the constitution. To me Article 99 is the mother of “constitutionally lawful” and “officially transparent” corruption in Pakistan. The Articles 248 and 99 make the President and the Government (Read Bureaucracy) unquestionably above law and free of fear of trial in any court of law for any action that they take as “Federal Government in the name of President.” ZHK2012 Pakistan’s Independence Day Message to Government and People of Pakistan Why the rulers and their subordinates are careless?

Pakistan’s Independence Day Message to Government and People of Pakistan Careless Rulers External Reliance for Self-Serving Budgetary Public Servants Targets Socially Ineffective Irresponsible National Debt Corporate Management Conglomerates Dysfunctional Incompetent Law Economic and Enforcement Fiscal Agencies Managers 3. Pakistan’s Independence Day Message Through Zahid Hussain KhalidI am Pakistan and that is my name. I do not find a nation behind that name. Every nation takes pride inits natural elements of national power and carefully configures them to form a unanimous commonNational Strategic Vision for the people and the government to follow on the road to growth andprosperity. Did I ever have a National Strategic Vision? Yes I did and that always remained a sacred butconfusing and forcefully debated subject for more than six decades without a consensus on what doesthat actually mean! That disputed vision is embodied in Lahore or Pakistan Resolution.The day my founders decided to draw a territorial map for me, they had to know what my real worthwas. Was I viable? Did I have the resources essentially needed to survive as a sovereign independent state or states? Did I need a code of conduct as a sovereign independent state and what could that be? Who was to be assigned the task of doing what? What were to be the rights and responsibilities of those striving to be known as independent Pakistanis? What was to be their source of pride? From where did they have to start their journey? What was their intended and planned destination? 4. The answers were and are always readily available. I tried and I constantly try to understand theseanswers but fail to understand them. The answers lead to more questions: Am I really natural and human resource rich or poor? Am I a single State or a confederation of States? Do I have a flawless code of conduct called constitution? Do the privileged and the deprived have the same constitutional rights and responsibilities? Are they treated alike? Is their any source of pride for Pakistanis? Do the government and the people have timeline of doing what they intend to do? Am I Muslim or a secular state?Do you have the clear answers to the questions or are you as confused as I am? Why am I confused? Iam confused because a casual glance at my elements of national power clearly indicates that I am one ofthe natural global super powers demographically, geographically, economically and militarily. What did Ifail to mention? I have failed to find across the board quality of leadership for the proper use of mydemographic, geographic, economic and military strengths. Demographically, I am a country ofpredominantly young generation; geographically my Regional GDP is the highest in my region and oneof the most attractive globally; economically I am comparatively much better positioned to become aregional and global agricultural, industrial and service / over all competitive cost-attractive qualityhuman resource hub; and militarily I am one of the seven mightiest military powers of the world! Andsurprisingly I am ridiculed as one of the most fragile and about to fail state!This extremely shameful state of my affairs leaves no room for delay in addressing the questions that Ihave raised earlier because they can not remain unanswered for a moment more as they are not only 5. crucial but awesomely serious for the GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION determination of my independent status called SOVERIEGNTY! My sovereign status becomes ESSENTIALS OF A DEFENCE NATURAL SUPER DEMOGRAPHIC CAPABILITY STRENGTH doubtful and questionable when some POWER individuals in leadership role think only about ECONOMIC & INVESTMENT themselves and forget that they, as member of POTENTIAL a nation, have certain obligations to me.In a situation like this I, being the only identity of my nation, start losing face in the community ofnations. When that happens the following symptoms are clearly visible in different walks of nationalactivities: The rulers become fearless, careless and are confident that they are more powerful than the power of law of the land. The public servants become self serving, Careless Rulers unaccountable and unanswerable External Tax evasion and black economy start Reliance for Self-Serving Budgetary Targets Public Servants destroying the country’s economic base Economic and fiscal management turn into nightmare Law and order situation becomes an Ineffective Socially Irresponsible administrative headache National Debt Corporate Management Conglomerates National debt becomes an unbearable and in-disposable ballooning burden External financial and economic bailout Dysfunctional Law Incompetent entails conditions, demands and pressures Economic and Enforcement Agencies Fiscal Managers creating internal and external social, economic, political, diplomatic and military deadlocks … And Doubts are spread about my survival 6. Isn’t that what I am going through today?I have identified the commonly known and discussed symptoms but I do not see any serious attempt forthe cure of the ailing system of governance for making my sovereignty a reality. How can I expect thosebeneficiaries of the dis-configuration of my elements of national power to surrender their privilegesfrom within and outside my boundaries by intentionally weakening of my sovereign status?THE CARELESS RULERSWhy the rulers and their subordinates are careless? They are careless because they have no fear of law.They are fearless because they know that constitution provides them immunity! This is what myenemies are taking advantage of and I will prove that.Whatever happened to me prior to first martial law and before the second dismissal of the governmentof Nawaz Sharif is understandable for the following reasons: Immediately after independence and prior to REASONS FOR FIRST MARTIAL LAW AND DISMISSAL OF DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENTS Ayub Khan’s military take over of the Endless government, politicians were totally oblivious of Politicians Code of There were series of were totally National no National conspiricies oblivious of Conduct was Strategic to acquire national priorities. They were not able to put national not available Vision and position of priorities untill 1956 Goals political prominence together a code of national conduct called Constitution until 1956!They were not even aware of the need for evaluation of my tangible and intangible elements of nationalpower to put National Strategic Vision and Goals on paper. They were aware of only political power andtheir shameful indulgence in conspiracies for acquiring that political power paved the way for army’sintervention in my political affairs. No matter how unjustified that was and how wrong the applicationof the law of necessity to legitimize that extra-constitutional action was, the best thing Ayub Khan did 7. was to prioritize my economic growth through rapid industrialization. His teams of capable ministers and competent top ranking bureaucrats prepared road map for my economic self-reliance that is backbone of any country’s globally acknowledged sovereign status. In the process those at the helm of corporate affairs naturally benefitted from their business expertise and material resources at their disposal to build privately owned corporate entities and conglomerates. Thesecorporate entities and conglomerates turned into family owned business empires. It was a globalphenomenon. On the political front the military government’s policy makers and social delivery systemmanagers failed to maintain a judicious balance between economic growth and expectations of thepeople both in my east and west wings. They were focused on economic front. They did not pay equalattention to address the political frustration and growing social unrest. By the time Ayub Khan’s team realized that and Fast Economic Growth The Myth Through Rapid of came up with the idea of local bodies elections Industrialization 20 families things had gone out of control. Zulfiqar Ali FIRST MARTIAL LAW REGIME Bhutto, politically the smartest member of Ayub Failure to create Unaddressed a balance between economic Political Frustration Khan’s team knew what was happening, growth and expectation of the people and Social Unrest jumped out of military ruler’s cabinet, formedhis own political party and came up with a unique combination of pledges for party manifesto declaringpeople as source of his party’s political strength; Islam as his party’s religion; and socialism as his party’seconomic system promising Roti (bread), Kapra (cloth) and Makan (house) to every one. From religiouspoint of view Bhutto’s manifesto neutralized the appeal of religious parties; from political perspective, it 8. was what people were looking for; from economic point of view it was happening in different parts ofthe world in the name of nationalization of important industrial, agro-based manufacturing and serviceconglomerates of national importance and from social angle international organizations were extendinga helping hand for the uplift of socially and economically deprived and excluded communities across theglobe. That was cleverly designed political mix of promises. What Bhutto failed to envision was that his political mix of promises did not have any chance of success in either his own country or anywhere else in the world. So, first casualty of his political mix of promises was my process of industrialization and economic growth; second was over-employment and unemployment as a consequence of politically motivated low- quality human resource recruitment and heavy losses due to mismanagement andunnecessary overheads. Consequently, the promise of Roti, Kapra and Makan also remained an illusionfor Bhutto’s voters. Bhutto has another feather in his crown and Economic Political Promises that is my unanimously approved constitution Promises ZABS MIX OF of 1973 that has politically remarkable binding ELECTION PROMISES clauses to keep the federation intact, Religious administratively over-destructive executive Social Promises Promises privileges and socially false promisesthose have nothing to do with the shameful realties on ground. This aspect of 1973’s constitutionironically has never been discussed or debated on any platform even after witnessing their disastrous 9. consequences. And that is actually what has made the rulers recklessly careless in their personalconduct at my cost.This Is A Constitutional Blunder That Has Hurt Me The Most Other Than Anything Else.THE MOST TALKED AND LESS THOUGHT ABOUT CONSTITUTIONAL ARTICLESArticle 248 of the constitution is discussed more than any other article during the miserably crawlingtenure of present government. So much have been said and written about this article that if compiledthe stuff will turn into a heavy book in weight but weightless in making any sense. The article hasadverse repercussions far beyond the personal conduct of the President when it is read together withArticles 99 of the constitution that states: (1) “All executive actions of the Federal Government shall be expressed to be taken in the name of the President.” (2) “The [96A] [Federal Government] by rules specify the manner in which orders and other instruments made and executed [96B] [in the name of President] shall be authenticated, and the validity of any order or instrument so authenticated shall not be questioned in any court on the ground that it was NOT made or executed by the President.”To me Article 99 is the mother of “constitutionally lawful” and “officially transparent” corruption inPakistan. The Articles 248 and 99 make the President and the Government (Read Bureaucracy)unquestionably above law and free of fear of trial in any court of law for any action that they take as“Federal Government in the name of President.” 10. The politicians invest millions and billions of rupees in elections and like any businessman expect returnon their investment with the help of state functionaries. Articles 248 and 99 of the constitution facilitatethese criminal activities and encourage politicians and bureaucrats to enrich themselves and theirfamilies at my cost and making me poor and over-burdened with debt. They plunder wealth and pushme into the hell of poverty and debt. They become security risk too because they do not keep theplundered money in the country. They open bank accounts in foreign countries and invest that moneyabroad. This is what the enemies of the country need to twist their arms and get anything done.This is exactly what is now openly happening since 2007 and a little earlier with the initiation ofnegotiation on “Charter of Democracy” and “National Reconciliation Ordinance.”SELF SERVING PUBLIC SERVANTS This is an interesting untold story. Taking full FEARLESS advantage of Article 99 the bureaucrats in their CORRUPTION individual official capacity and at times in BLESSINGS connivance with a group of their equally or CONSEQUENCES OF ARTICLES BENEFICIARIES 248 AND 99 more corrupt colleagues, federal ministers and relatives of the high officials in three pillars of HELPLESSNESS OF ANTI- the state entered into formal and gentleman CORRUPTION AGENCIES agreements with business tycoons, contractors,sub-contractors and companies on terms and conditions that served their personal anti-state interestsbut evidently and seriously damaged my reputation and financial health. That was and is not happeningbehind the curtain or under the table any more. Article 99 is such a blessing for the corrupt governmentofficials that story after story of their corruption in media and endless series of trials, with a number of 11. exceptions recently and during Pervez Musharraf’s regime, corruption often smiles at transparency andaccountability in the conduct of government business. How do they do it?Corruption has internal and external dimensions. Internally, business tycoons, multinational companies,the business cartels and government officials draft and enter into agreements “in the name ofPresident” in direct favor of the corporate beneficiaries and indirect earning of “consultation fee” andother benefits and privileges for themselves and their families. Externally, the Presidents and PrimeMinisters “in the name of Foreign Direct and Indirect Investment Inflows” enter into dubious businessdeals in connivance with Economic Hit Men of enemy states and their intelligence agencies. A number ofsuch internally and externally initiated deals have been reported and discussed in print and electronicmedia without any outcome so far except an ongoing series of court trials pending final verdict.SOCIALLY IRRESPONSIBLE BUSINESS COMMUNITY AND CORPORATE CONGLOMERATES When the public office holders and the public servants fail to take care of the genuine basic needs of the people and speed money becomes order of the day then the people gradually start demonstrating the indifference to the needs of the country and its internal and external affairs.The money earned through corruption goes into the pockets, properties and overseas bank accounts ofthe corrupt politicians and the public servants and I become poor and indebted. Poverty and debt createinternal chaos and paves the way for external interference.Irresponsible business community and corrupt corporate conglomerates are far more dangerous thanmy foreign enemy. Their fake, sub-standard, over-priced and over-advertised products, commoditiesand services play havoc with the public purse, health and my economy. Government has lost control 12. over prices. A deep rooted cycle of corruption has been engineered at manufacturing, farming,distribution and retail levels. Non of the business organizations so far has taken any visible serious legal or other action, other than giving mild threats on TV channels and organizing a few fake agitation rallies, for the end of 12 to 18 hours load shedding in business, commercial and trading hubs of the country. It clearly indicates that they are making so much tax-free money that they are least bothered about the extra cost on electricity generation for using expansive diesel generators and other meanseven at retail levels! Nothing can be more surprising than that strange attitude of clearly visibleindifference. They are not doing anything about target killings and extortion mafias also. On top of that,without any consideration of unscheduled load-shedding for 12 to 18 hours, constantly increasing costof utility bills and petroleum products an endless flood of irritating commercials of mostly fake productsis seen on almost all television channels whenever electricity companies allow the people to switch ontheir TV sets. The plundered over-profits on majority of fake, sub-standard, over-priced products areshared with media owners and government officials too. I am unfortunately a poor and about-to-failcountry of disgustingly and criminally filthy rich characterless and shameless successful business houses,media owners, politicians and government officials. They are not worried about my future because theyare rich and successful if I am poor and ridiculed as a fragile state. They will remain rich and successfulwhen I will be no more. They don’t care! Ironically there is no genuine consumer protection platformwith sufficient resources and people’s support to put an end to this extreme form of unstoppableperpetual criminal exploitation. 13. INCOMPETENT ECONOMIC AND FISCAL MANAGERS The economic and finance managers of the country do not find a way out of the debt quagmire simply because they are either understandably not interested for the reasons already listed and / or are incapable of addressing the genuine public issues in their proposals and policy guidelines. Instead ofover-facilitating the business cartels what my economic and finance managers need is to develop aneconomic policy framework that reflects the genuine expectations of the people. They have to plug an alleged Rs.600 billion to Rs.800 billion per day corruption hole. The people need to be convinced that the money they pay to the government will be spent on their comfort, convenience and well-being and not on the lust and luxuries of the public office holders andpublic servants on tax-evaders’ account for ripping me off my money. How that can be done? By eliminating the corrupt practices and element of speed money in government offices By making the rules of doing business simple and procedures transparent By announcing definitive deadlines for official response to the proposals, applications and grievances of the public to make the public servants responsible and responsive By creating online monitoring and evaluation systems 14. and By engineering an administrative design in which the public, the public servants and the public office holders undertake joint initiatives for designing, development and implementation of a number of communities focused social sector development schemesDYSFUNCTIONAL AND INEFFECTIVE INVESTIGATING AND LAW ENFORCING AGENCIESAn irresponsible, irresponsive and corrupt bureaucracy, irresponsible politicians, corruption, tax evasionand debt burden create economic uncertainty, damage the internal investment climate, block theexternal investment flows, raise the level of unemployment to an irritating extent and as a consequenceof social and political chaos and unrest turn the law and order situation into an administrative headache.How this visibly incurable headache can be cured? Genuine public and private sector participation in national reconstruction will Strict Adherence Genuine National Reconstruction to a Candidates make the bureaucracy responsive only by Participation in Initiative election Criteria re-inventing the monitoring, evaluation and punishment and reward system through Good Governance transparent apolitical process of meaningful exemplary accountability. The strict application of selection and election criteria based on a candidate’s character and the replacement of politicians turned rulers with responsible and responsive public representatives will either reform or totally replace the existing rotten system of governance. 15. Good governance will eliminate corruption, discourage tax evasion, reduce debt burden, put an end to economic uncertainty, improve the internal investment climate, attract external strategic investors, create employment opportunities and bring the law and order situation back to normal.The cure lies in the replacement of politicians turn rulers with responsible and responsive publicservants in public offices. For that FBR, NAB and FIA needs to be independent of Executive Influence.INEFFECTIVE NATIONAL DEBT MANAGEMENTWhen the people refuse to voluntarily put their share in the country’s kitty; when the public officeholders start fleecing the public to live like kings and queens; when the national priorities are not listed;and the public money is wasted on non-productive schemes and projects then the wheel of debtretirement process abruptly stops. Pakistan has escaped the global disgrace of default in the past. The task now is to put the economy back on track preparing the ground for a revived spirit of self-reliance – the key to my absolute sovereignty.It is a two way process. The government has to come up with a workable economic revival plan andwhen that is done then the people will have to put in their share to the extent they comfortably can.They will have to obviously go through a little bit pain and ignore it for my very survival’s sake.The preparation of an overall social welfare based economic revival plan and its acceptance by thenation and its willingness to extend a helping hand, therefore, is the ONLY key to debt retirement. 16. INCREASING EXTERNAL RELIANCE FOR BUDGETRY TARGET Who rules the country and what system of government, the people of a country choose is none of other nations’ business. How the country uses its human and natural resources is also its own prerogative. When the other countries start telling a country what to do and what not to do, how to do and how not to do then there is something terribly wrong with that country’s independent and uninfluencedexercise of sovereignty. Any country that provides budgetary breathing space enjoys the right to dictateits terms no matter how humiliating they are.What is wrong with me?My visible inability to retire internal and external debt that I owe and an alarming level of increase in mydebt is closing all available options for my honorable survival as an independent sovereign state.What is the way out?I am desperately looking for NATIONAL CONSENSUS on an ECONOMIC REVIVAL PLAN on war footingwith God speed. If the needful is not done quickly then my Sovereign Status will REST IN PEACE!CONCLUDING TO DO WISH LISTAn investigative initiative by university students engaged in research to critically examine the followingcycle of evils that has turned my national strengths into incurable weaknesses is urgently needed: Careless Rulers  Self-Serving Public Servants  17. Socially Irresponsible Corporate Conglomerate  Incompetent Economic and Fiscal Managers  Dysfunctional Law Enforcing Agencies  Ineffective National Debt Management  External Reliance for Budgetary TargetsTo me self-serving rulers and public servants appear to be the main culprits. However, media ownersand their employees are equally responsible for giving undue prominence to undeserving politicians.They are guilty of criminal negligence of their responsibility to me. They don’t know the differencebetween a “traitor” and a “martyr.” They have so far failed to expose the criminal acts of politicians.Now they are trying to address their unintended blunders but a soft corner for dishonest politicians forknown and unknown reasons is still visible in their coverage of national and international issues.The people have to carefully watch political leaders, corporate conglomerates and their big bosses andmedia owners and their employees. They have to create powerful independent public platforms tomonitor the activities of these three national actors who have messed up every thing in the past. Oncethey are under observation and consequent court trials, the other pillars of the state will automaticallycome back to their required mode to serve me and my people.The purpose of this message is to initiate a discussion on the subject for addressing problems andseeking solutions.I know who the culprits are. They are beneficiaries of the mess I am in. They have full support of thebig media houses and my enemies. It is not in their interest to reform their style of governance.Disciplined street power, awareness of the voters’ power of his vote and its careful use are expectedto gradually bring a change. There is no short cut. So planning, patience and organized effort will leadthe way to my emancipation from my enemies in politics, business and media Recommended

JASONAARON.INFO: Well I hope Neil Young will remember... Edward at: 12:28 AM said... I know you’ve probably heard this a lot from emails, letters, signings, etc. But I just wanted to say that I’ve been a huge fan of your two books: “The Other Side” and “Scalped” from DC/Vertigo. I wanted to ask you a question if you didn’t mind. I’m a huge fan of the crime genre and so far “Scalped” has done a really good job in doing that. I remember earlier this year you had an interview with Around Comics where they asked you what the pitch to “Scalped” was. You mentioned it was like “The Wire” with a little Cormack McCarthy. Now being a big fan of David Simon and “The Wire” myself it seems so far it’s been doing that in terms of explaining these characters not by looking at them as simply black or white but gray. You have also showed an image of the Native American that not many people are familiar with set in North Dakota. Now I wanted to ask you, do you have any plans on “Scalped” to explore the politics, poverty line as well as the education system of Native Americans? It would be really interesting to see all of those aspects because so far I’ve been hearing many good things about how “Scalped” hits the very essence of what is going on in many of the Indian Reservations of North Dakota as “The Wire” has brought Baltimore to life. I know you’re probably busy writing but if you get the chance I would love to hear your answer. Until then, take care of yourself. Thanks for the kind words, Edward. In answer to your question, yes, SCALPED will definitely be exploring different aspects of life on our fictional rez. No plans as yet to deal with the education system, but politics will continue to play a part in the series, as we watch Chief Red Crow struggle to deal with the Bureau of Indian Affairs and his own tribal council. And look no further than issue #10 for a story that explores the poverty on the rez. Be sure and let me know what you think. And thanks again.

HomeContactMeSpec-Fic I Like Posted on June 30, 2016 by Scott J. Clemons 1 As of tonight I am 43,000 words into my 75,000 word goal! Whoa, right? It’s crazy that I’ve been able to get this much done while still taking a full load of graduate level coursework and being a pretty solid dad and husband. All in all I’m pretty proud of myself. Posted on June 18, 2016 by Scott J. Clemons Reply You know what’s one of the dopest things about being in school for as long as I have? It’s totally legit to procrastinate on major decisions. Questions about where we’ll eventually live or how to crawl out from my crippling pile of student loans are easily pushed to the same dark corner of my brain where I hide my memory of the one time I left the house wearing my clothes backwards because I wanted to be Kriss Kross. Posted on June 11, 2016 by Scott J. Clemons Reply Getting stuck in the middle of a scene is the most annoying shizbiz to happen when I’m working on a story, and it’s enough to make you quit altogether if you’re trying to figure out how to write a book for the first time. I’ll be working on a project, cooking along like a runaway semi, and then BOOM! The ideas just stop. Like, for real stop. I don’t even know how it happens. It’s like one second my brain is just pouring creativity and the next it’s saying, “You know what? I’m just gonna stop working right now because I can.” Posted on June 1, 2016 by Scott J. Clemons Reply Oh my gawd! It’s been, like, forever since I put work into this thing. And that’s a shame, you know? I really put a lot of time and energy into keeping this things going for a hot minute. But then I got busy. Like, really effin’ busy. Posted on April 25, 2015 by Scott J. Clemons Reply Sometimes I can be a real envious dude. Like, real envious. Not about everything — I’m not that much of a jerk — just the really big stuff. The stuff I want so bad it makes my chest ache like I’m thirteen and I just spotted the girl I’m crushing on. Publishing a book is one of them. The biggest, actually. There’s a few other crossroads-at-midnight type of desires bouncing around in my head, but publishing a book is def the Big Bopper. Posted on March 9, 2015 by Scott J. Clemons 1 I don’t know about all of you, but whenever I get crazy stressed out I just can’t seem to concentrate on writing. It’s so bad in fact that I get this aversion to writing anything. That’s pretty much what has been going on lately. What with work, planning for the big move across the country, and buying a house, I somehow haven’t had room in my brain for working on my story. Kind of a bummer, but what are you going to do, right? I know that once I get moved I’ll have some time to get back into the habit, but for now I’m not going to beat up on myself too much. Moving across the country is crazy stressful without adding in the guilt of not getting some unreasonable amount of writing done. Posted on February 17, 2015 by Scott J. Clemons 1 Ever have the feeling of struggling through every word you get onto the page? That’s totes where I’ve been at lately. A couple weeks ago I started back into trying to write regularly — and by “regularly” I mean “whenever my toddler is asleep / with grandma / busy making a pile of toys in the living room” — and I have never had such a tough time getting a single effing paragraph written. Maybe it’s the fact that I am trying to work on a story that has been sitting untouched for so long? I know that in the past I have lost the rhythm of a story if I’ve left it dormant for too long. I really hope that’s not the case because the I was just starting to love the characters and my read-through of the first draft didn’t make me totally sick to my stomach.

After all, we need expertise on soils and cultural landscapes, hydrology and plant science. So many different parts of the university seem Still, as a deep sea scientist, Peter Rona seems like he might be working in a space that I wouldn't interact with. But a casual conversation with him 10 years ago led to one of his students taking a geomatics class. His project mapping the depths of Hudson Canyon was great because it pushed me into new analysis questions while helping him see new aspects of his own research. Since then, Rona's Engineering Geophysics program has given me a chance to remain connected to this remarkably different perspective on space and landscapes.

In those days nobody in government did. The only computer programmers were in private companies and I needed to talk to these people, to ask if my ideas were possible. My input was system design; their input was knowledge about computers. It became a productive relationship, and it happened at the time when transistors were allowing computers to be information processors rather than only calculating engines. So there was a convergence of ideas, needs, skills, and technology that set the stage for the development of GIS.” The big papers haven't posted obituaries yet, but they will. When you think about the pervasive nature of GIS, there are few innovators whose work has touched more people than Tomlinson. Even those living without access to technology are having the landscapes around them cataloged, analyzed, and changed with Tomlinson's brainchild.

I'm working in a museum and also a multi-use city, because you cannot have empty places during 18 hours a day. You should have always a structure of living and working together. Try to understand the sectors in the city that could play different roles during the 24 hours." Michael Pawlyn on using nature's genius as inspiration for design "Antoine de Saint-Exupery once said, "If you want to build a flotilla of ships, you don't sit around talking about carpentry. No, you need to set people's souls ablaze with visions of exploring distant shores." And that's what we need to do, so let's be positive, and let's make progress with what could be the most exciting period of innovation we've ever seen." "We need new tools and new approaches. Similarly, the idea of architecture as this sort of object in the field, devoid of context, is really not the -- excuse me, it's fairly blatant -- is really not the approach that we need to take. So we need new stories, new heroes and new tools." "So on the one hand, a city saves money for its residents by being more walkable and more bikeable, but on the other hand, it also is the cool kind of city that people want to be in these days. So the best economic strategy you can have as a city is not the old way of trying to attract corporations and trying to have a biotech cluster or a medical cluster, or an aerospace cluster, but to become a place where people want to be. And millennials, certainly, these engines of entrepreneurship, 64 percent of whom decide first where they want to live, then they move there, then they look for a job, they will come to your city." Majora Carter's Greening the Ghetto "We have no excuse in this country. I'm sorry. But the bottom line is: their people-first agenda was not meant to penalize those who could actually afford cars, but rather to provide opportunities for all Bogatanos to participate in the city's resurgence. That development should not come at the expense of the majority of the population is still considered a radical idea here in the US. But Bogota's example has the power to change that." "And we are in a long, long line of organisms to come to this planet and ask ourselves, "How can we live here gracefully over the long haul?" How can we do what life has learned to do? Which is to create conditions conducive to life. Now in order to do this, the design challenge of our century, I think, we need a way to remind ourselves of those geniuses, and to somehow meet them again." Labels: class, Environmental Planning, Landscape Architecture, video (Note: as a live blog on a politically contested territory, I want to apologize in advance for notes that misconstrue Dr. Bakshi's comments with provocative links and comments that are probably unintentional) In early 20th Century Jerusalem, Charles Robert Ashbee proposed eliminating some of the historic structures to create more enhanced views and green space. In part, this plan was based on his hope to return the city to what he called “the most perfect, medieval enceinte in existence.” Our sense of connection and movement through connected lands is very different in our region than it is in Israel and Palestine. As such, evaluations of proposals (like the proposed Mount of Olives National Park) have to be considered from different perspectives than just those with which we might approach the situation. Even neighborhoods, like Walaja, become contested territory.

One voice they quote suggested a radical departure, "At a round-table discussion held during Mayor de Blasio’s transition, State Senator Daniel L. Squadron spoke of his proposal that the wealthiest conservancies tithe 20 percent of the dollars they raised. This money, perhaps $15 million annually, would go the less well-endowed parks."

Guilty Pleasures: Holiday Food | Would Like to Eat... It’s holiday season. Which means I’ve had a week away (and the knee-knocking pleasure of steamy evenings feasting out and sunshining days exploring markets and supermarkets) and that every other colleague seems to be coming back from sunnier climbs armed with edible gifts and curious liquors. They’re dotted around the office – on desks and tucked behind the fax machine – ready to be discovered for tes bon elevenses and wunderbar afternoon teas. I love holiday food. And dudes, I am sure you do too. For me, the best would have to be the GIANT toblerones my Dad used to bring home after skiing in the alps. Although the day I had my first ever humongous pack of jelly-belly jelly beans, all the way from the U S of A was a bit of an epoch. What is the best holiday food you’ve even had (home or away)? x Tags: dutyfree, epoch, greedy, guilty pleasure, holiday, jellybelly, toblerone Comments ← I just ate my entire body weight in pasta – a trip to Sicily… Recipe: Fish and Chips (with a twist) → 2 Responses to “Guilty Pleasures: Holiday Food” Truckle Stilton http://trucklecheese.co.uk/cheese/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_2_7&products_id=11 and Truckle Pear & Vanilla Pod Chutney http://trucklecheese.co.uk/cheese/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_2_3&products_id=17 Its the most amazing combination.

How to look up seal script characters? - Chinese Language Stack Exchange When we know a modern Hanzi, finding its seal script equivalent in a dictionary is not a problem. However, a more common case is that we have an existing seal script character we cannot identify, and we want to know which modern Hanzi it represents. How can I look up seal script characters that I cannot recognise? I'd be most interested in electronic resources (websites, computer programs, phone apps), but information about paper dictionaries is also OK. edited Feb 4 '17 at 14:11 Great question. I think there is no such tool, unfortunately, and only a lot of practice will help you. – vermillon Feb 5 '17 at 23:02 Looking up seal characters is not as hopeless as other answers seem to indicate, even though it is considerably harder than looking up modern characters. In any case, the lookup needs to consist of identifying which component of the seal character is the radical and finding the character in the corresponding section. Identification of the radical needs to be done by trial and error, as there are no fixed rules that an be applied when you don't know the character in the first place. Let us start with the slowest, traditional method and see how it can be made faster using electronic dictionaries: Use a paper edition of 說文解字 Shuōwén Jiězì that contains a seal radical index. Note that most modern editions of Shuōwén have seal script headwords, but their indices use modern characters. Use an online list of seal radicals to find out the number of the radical, and find the character in the corresponding section of Shuōwén Jiězì. The radical numbers are equivalent to Shuōwén section numbers (this is where the name 部首 “section headers” comes from). Use Wenlin and choose List -> D. Shuowen Seal Radicals. This will give you a list of 540 seal radicals, and clicking on any of them will give you all the seal characters listed under this radical. This is much faster than looking up the character in Shuōwén, especially when you are not sure which component is the radical (部首). Note that Wenlin lists are based on a Qīng Dynasty commentary on Shuōwén, 說文解字·注, not the original, Hàn-era 說文解字. The problem with the original Shuōwén radical list is that it is arranged semantically, in a way that is not helpful for somebody who doesn't know the radicals by heart. Therefore, I made two other indices that can be opened in Wenlin and used in the same way as above: the list of Shuōwén seal radicals ordered by approximate stroke count, and the list of Shuōwén seal radicals ordered by their token frequency in Classical Chinese texts (based on Jun Da's Classical Chinese Character Frequency List). The former list begins with radicals that are the simplest graphically, and the latter one presents the most frequent radicals first, which makes it much easier to find the radical you're looking for. I am native in Chinese. To be honest, the majority of Chinese people don't recognize the seal scripts though they seem some kind of beautiful. I search some Chinese websites and can't find a better one which can offer e-dictionary.The following website only shows the most common seal script, hope it helps. You also can use baidu.com (China google) to search more information or email me emailyoungnic@gmail.com. http://wenku.baidu.com/link?url=sdRvRR_aC16oOdx3XFQtKtSFQtiC6LoF0IktHjTFT_Cyj34SG1r21VWUqisgtCc3bvb4hjLLulS20FXNVvYV_lU7wPWPodAe8_ghDceZLeK My question is about how to look up the characters. The document you linked to doesn't have any index. And 說文解字 lists many more seal script characters, by the way. – 米好 '-' Feb 18 '17 at 11:46 For a freely available method, Guoxuedashi offers an interface to look up seal script characters. Internet Explorer (seal script links do not dislpay properly on other browsers, although they still work) 說文小篆字體 (this is a .ttf download link) Following the example to look up「巖」( ): Find on the list on the right hand side of the page. Click the seal characters. They should appear automatically in the box labelled 輸入部件. Click 查找. A list of the seal characters with these components should appear below. Click the link for the corresponding page in regular script, with a wealth of information. answered Sep 30 at 3:50 This site is provides a good source for seal script characters: http://chineseetymology.org/ Another good source (more oriented towards calligraphy): http://shufazidian.com/ Good paper dictionaries also give the seal script character for each entry, see for example 國語活用辭典. To look up seal characters, you will have to learn how to recognise the radicals. It is actually not too difficult and quite fun! It is also good to get used to that components sometimes are loose – components can be arranged differently from what you might be used to. OK, but where can I learn to recognise seal script radicals? And even if I recognise the radical, how can I find the right character? They often have different components than equivalent modern Hanzi. – 米好 '-' Feb 5 '17 at 15:58 @米好'-' For example, look up 紹、績、紅、繞、續 and look for the common part, that is 糹. The clerical script, usually contains the same components as their Kai 楷 counterparts, at least the standardized form that you will find in a dictionary. – MunHo Feb 5 '17 at 16:38 http://www.dullr.com/ This website helps to convert modern Simplified Chinese into Seal Scripts. Although this is very convenient, but note that: Each Simplified Chinese character may be corresponding to several different Traditional Chinese character. And the computer software may not gives the right conversion. Each Traditional Chinese character may be writtern in several different ways in Seal Script, while this won't cause any error though. MunHo mentioned a website ChineseEtymology, which is the best one in collecting the ancient writing styles. answered Feb 5 '17 at 22:48 Thanks, but I'm looking for something exactly opposite: a converter from the seal script to modern Chinese. – 米好 '-' Feb 5 '17 at 23:23 This is almost not possible because there's no computer input system support seal scripts. – Lucius Hu Feb 7 '17 at 0:40 Not the answer you're looking for?

Paging Pvt. Hanks for Memorial Day parade - tribunedigital-chicagotribune May 06, 2001|By Ellen Warren & Terry Armour. Even if you don't like a parade--the crowds, the noise, the parking mess--this one could draw a record crowd. The city has asked actor Tom Hanks to be the grand marshal of this year's Memorial Day Parade in the Loop. Hanks, in town filming "Road to Perdition," wants to do it and is trying to work out his schedule for the May 26 event. More parade "news": OK, this one doesn't feature Tom Hanks. It's not even Charo. But the Inc.-mobile will be rolling along in the May 28 annual River Forest Memorial Day Parade. At least one of the Inc.-sters will be tossing candy to the crowd. And, if that's not enough of a thrill, there's free hot dogs. And chips. Play ball?: While the New York press is reporting Michael Jordan's possible return to basketball next season could include Dennis Rodman (egads!), Patrick Ewing and Charles Barkley, we hear a more likely scenario has those three--and possibly Magic Johnson--joining the bald one for a charity game this summer. And if Jordan happens to perform well against the NBA's younger talent in that game, it would go a long way in determining whether he's able to play again. Stay tuned. Meanwhile ...: In other NBA developments, while having dinner at Chicago's Chop House, former Bull Tony Kucoc told Inc. he'd like to be traded back to the Bulls. Despite playing for the Philadelphia 76ers and now the Atlanta Hawks, Kucoc never moved his family from Chicago, and he says he would like to play for the Bulls next season if a trade can be worked out. Suite home: IKEA, the home furnishings giant, wants to give $5,000 to two couples who "personify Chicago." Inc. suggests you qualify if you: - Failed your driving test but still got a license - Busted an axle on one of those legendary city potholes - Truly believe that this is the year for the Cubs to go all the way. Winners have to agree to spend three days in a "Love Suite" public art display on Michigan Avenue to benefit Snow City Arts Foundation. Send entries by May 23, including a paragraph on why you qualify, with a photo taken in your living room, to 304 Hudson St., #700, New York City, NY 10013. Sweet mystery: We're always looking for late starters who didn't get successful until they were older than us! Which brings us to P.D. James, the master of mystery novels. She began writing the popular page-turners in her 60s. James reads from her new book, "Death in Holy Orders," at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the Harold Washington Library Center. Already?: The ink is barely dry on all those stories about President George W. Bush's first 100 days and already politicians are jockeying for position for the next presidential race. Roll Call reports that speechwriters are a "hot commodity" in the Senate as the big egos there consider making the race. One of the "hottest" of the wordsmiths is Jeffrey Nussbaum, who once worked for Al Gore. Nussbaum went to work for Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.), though ex-veep candidate Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) also tried to snag him. Fore!: Chicago Cubs, including Todd Hundley, Kevin Tapani and Jason Bere, are set to play May 14 in the Don Baylor-Chip Caray Celebrity Classic at the Cantigny Golf and Tennis Club in Wheaton. Among the charities to benefit from the golf outing and dinner (featuring Sammy Sosa and others), at $4,000 per foursome, is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Call the foundation for tickets: 312-236-4491. ... but who's counting?: Sunday birthdays: actor George Clooney, 40; actress Roma Downey, 41; baseball great Willie Mays, 70; singer Bob Seger, 56; actress Mare Winningham, 42. Armour shoots the breeze with Kristin Dattilo. The 31-year-old Kankakee native, who has popped up on everything from "Friends" to "Ally McBeal," plays Chris Isaak's manager on his Showtime show. Dattilo is part of the ensemble cast for the upcoming film "Love and Support." Inc.--So, when did you first get the acting bug? A--I didn't start acting seriously, committing to auditions, until after high school. That's when I knew it was what I wanted to do. Inc.--It wasn't some lifelong dream? A--Kids always play, and I wanted to be a doctor, a lawyer, an actress and president of the United States (laughs). But then I seriously pursued acting after high school. Inc.--What was the first major role you got? A--My first real job? It was probably a regular role in an NBC series called "Hull High." It was back in 1990. Inc.--So, you've been doing this for quite a while. A--Be quiet, Terry (laughs). Inc.--Sorry. Talk about "The Chris Isaak Show." A--I'm fascinated by people who can play instruments and can sing and can actually sound like something you don't want to cover your ears from. That's the best thing because I'm so ignorant of the music world. We've had people like Stevie Nicks coming through, and they can pick up any instrument and play. And Chris Isaak and his band are brilliant musicians. Inc.--Did you know much about Chris before you did the show? Women dig him, you know. A--I'm so glad I didn't know him because I probably wouldn't have gotten the show (laughs). He was in the room when I auditioned the last time. If I had seen his videos--I have seen them since--I probably would have been nervous and done an awful job. Thank God.

Bagworm - Animal Crossing Wiki - Wikia Watchlist Random page Recent changes Bagworm ミノムシ Minomushi 250 Bells (AC, AFe+)300 Bells (CF, NL) October to March (AC, AFe+) October to February (CF, NL) All day5pm to 8am (CF in Oct) AF+, AC, AFe+, CF, NL Oruga de Bolsón Bruco dal fodero Sackträger Psyché "I caught a bagworm! Ain't no one baggin' on me now!" —New Leaf The bagworm (ミノムシ,, Minomushi?) is an uncommon bug that first appeared in Animal Crossing. It appears throughout autumn and winter, and can be shaken out of trees. In GCN games villagers will look up into trees that hold bagworms, giving away their location. On shaking the tree bagworms will drop from a strand of silk and hang in the air. In City Folk and New Leaf bagworms will eventually retreat back into the tree after several seconds if it is not immediately caught. It is the winter equivalent of the spider. Bagworms do not appear in fruit trees in any game except for New Leaf, but can sometimes be found in trees that contain items if that tree is shaken a second time after the item falls out. If a bagworm is released, the casing bounces to the ground and disappears. In Animal Crossing it slides along the floor like the spider. Blathers will make this rather lengthy quote when it is presented to him: The bagworm is not a worm per se, but rather any moth of the family Psychidae while in its caterpillar phase. Bagworms construct their cocoons by cutting leaves or branches to the length of their own bodies. Next, they hang these leaves or branches on shrubs or trees and spin their cocoons around them. Fascinating! Interestingly enough, only males of the species become moths. Females spend the rest of their lives in the cocoons. The black, furry males fly from cocoon to cocoon, leaving the females to lay 500 or so eggs, then die. Just imagine it! 500 or more eggs! And then they die! That's not very sporting, if you ask me. Not at all! I can't see any female owls standing for that nonsense. My dear old mum would have given my da an earful, wot! In any case, where was I? Ah, yes. Bagworms, bagworms. Quite the pests, they are... Voracious in the extreme! An infestation of bagworms can defoliate entire trees in surprisingly rapid fashion. Gluttonous monsters! This is particularly harmful, sometimes fatally so, in evergreens, whose needles are never replaced. Hundreds and hundreds of bagworms...eating and eating...stuffing their bug-gullets... Bleech! Wretched villains! When donated it can be found in the bottom left hanging from the left side of the tree in the grasshopper exhibit. In City Folk Blathers will say this after taking the bagworm from the player: Once donated, bagworms can be found in the upper left corner of the bug room in the museum, hanging from a tree.

They measure from one to fifteen centimeters. Bagworms can be found around the world—there are around 600 known species. The casing of the bagworm serves to protect and camouflage the larvae until it emerges as a moth. Retrieved from "http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Bagworm?oldid=339611"

It's a La Dee Dah Day!: NO SHAVE NOVEMBER JOIN US AT THE PAPER PLUNGE FOR A NEW WEEKLY CHALLENGE! "KEEPIN' IT CLEAN"! How about this QUICK, SIMPLE CLEAN card? My sons for the past few years have participated in NO SHAVE NOVEMBER and grew mustaches. I made them this card and added on the inside..... "I can't wait til December! Love, Mom". They are both handsome men (in my humble opinion as their mom) and the mustache's are just creepy to me. I have proof! just wait & see............ The back story of what I am about to share... For YEARS I have asked my family for photos and to have a family photo. My husband HATES no DETESTS pictures being taken of him. He does cooperate, but reluctantly! A few years ago, we took the whole family to Disney during our Anniversary Week. My husband and I stayed an extra day & my oldest son picked us up from the airport. When we got home, all the family was at our house. I thought that it was strange, seeing we just spent a week together. BUT after walking in and seeing WHAT they did for an Anniversary Gift, words can't describe it or our reaction! Every picture in our house was switched out for NEW (AWKWARD) FAMILY PHOTOS. Have you seen those cards at Target? Well they had a photo shoot with their creepy mustaches, and ugly sweaters, and coordinating sweatsuits, and off-stylin' hair DON'TS! If there was a frame, there was a new photo. Over the fireplace, on the walls, in my office, on the bookcase.... EVERYWHERE! We will never, ever forget that day, it was totally awesome! Here are a few of the 100+ photos. This year for our Anniversary, we had a REAL Family Photo Shoot. Here is our current family photo! Oh, back to the quick simple clean card............

The testing system comprises a vehicle suspension system, a wheel attached thereto, a first actuator for exciting the wheel based on data concerning road and other conditions, and a dummy vehicle body linked to the suspension system and having a frame, a reaction measuring device linked to the frame and a second actuator for exciting the frame. When the wheel is excited corresponding to the data on road and other conditions, the suspension system and the dummy body vibrate. The reaction force generated by the suspension system is measured by the reaction measuring device. Using the measured value, the digital computer calculates vibrational response after an elapse of a predetermined time of a body numerical model and the like imaginary linked with the dummy body to excite and control the first actuator so that the vibrational response is made by the dummy body and the suspension system after the elapse of the predetermined time. Accordingly, it becomes possible to conduct a test similar to an actual car test by using a partial model composed of parts of an actual vehicle. 1. A system for testing a vehicle by exciting the vehicle, comprising:a dummy vehicle body having a frame; at least one first exciting unit having one end fixed and another end connected with said frame; reaction measuring means attached to said frame for measuring reaction force generated by a suspension system linked to said frame; a digital computer for computing a driving signal to drive said first exciting unit based on a value of reaction force measured by said reaction measuring means; and a second exciting unit having one end fixed and another end disposed in contact with said suspension system. 2. The system according to claim 1, wherein said digital computer comprises:storage means for storing vehicle body numerical models data which characterize the vehicle body; body motion calculating means for calculating a motion of said body based on said body numerical model data; and time control means for controlling operations of said reaction measuring means and said body motion calculating means. 3. The vehicle testing system according to claim 1, wherein the second exciting unit comprises:rotary pulleys; a belt mounted on the pulleys; and an actuator for exciting the belt. 4. The vehicle testing system according to claim 1, wherein said digital computer has output means for outputting a calculation result of the body motion to the outside unit at a predetermined timing. 5. The vehicle testing system according to claim 2, wherein a second digital computer is connected to said second exciting unit, and said second digital computer comprises:a memory for storing data concerning vehicle running conditions and road surface conditions; exciting signal calculating means for outputting a signal for operating said second exciting unit based on the stored running condition and road surface conditions data; and second time control means for controlling the operation of said second exciting unit. 6. The vehicle testing system according to claim 5, wherein:said second exciting unit is provided with second reaction measuring means for measuring reaction by said second exciting unit; and said calculating means calculates a signal force generated exciting signal for operating said second exciting unit, based on an output of said second reaction measuring means. 7. The vehicle testing system according to claim 5, wherein the digital computer and the second digital computer are integrated. 8. A vehicle testing method for testing a vehicle suspension system by using a dummy vehicle body, comprising steps of:measuring reaction force generated by said suspension system linked to said dummy body; calculating a motion of said dummy body after a preset time following a measurement of the reaction force, which motion corresponds to a measured value of the reaction, based on previously stored body numerical model data; calculating a signal for exciting said dummy body based on a calculated body motion; and outputting said exciting signal after said preset time. 9. The vehicle testing method according to claim 8, further comprising steps of:calculating a wheel exciting signal for exciting a wheel by using previously stored data on vehicle running state and on road surface state; and outputting an exciting signal and a running state based on a calculated value of the exciting signal. 10. The vehicle testing method according to claim 8, wherein a calculated motion of said dummy body is output after the preset time, for feed back to said suspension system. 11. A vehicle testing method for testing a vehicle suspension system by using a dummy vehicle body, comprising steps of:measuring a reaction force generated by said suspension system; calculating a motion of a wheel after a preset time following a measurement of the reaction force, based on previously stored data on wheel exciting state and on a measured value of the reaction force with respect to a wheel numerical model stored in advance; determining an exciting signal for causing a motion of a part linking said suspension system and said wheel to agree with the calculated wheel motion; outputting said exciting signal after the preset time; calculating a motion of the body after the preset time following measurement of the reaction force, based on a measured value of the reaction force by using previously stored body numerical model; determining an exciting signal for causing the motion of said dummy body to agree with calculated body motion; and outputting said exciting signal after said preset time. 12. The vehicle testing method according to claim 11, wherein data on the wheel exciting state are calculated based on previously stored data on vehicle running state and road surface state. 13. The vehicle testing method according to claim 12, wherein the calculation result of the motion of said dummy body is output after the preset time, for feed back to said suspension system. This application claims the priority of Japanese Application No. 8-129602, filed May 24, 1996, the disclosure(s) of which is (are) expressly incorporated by reference herein. The present invention relates to method and apparatus for testing a vehicle such as an automobile, and for testing a suspension system of the vehicle. A vehicular suspension system is an important part which affects riding comfort in a vehicle, and it is essential to make a preliminary evaluation of the performance thereof in developing the vehicle. Thereafter, conventionally, the vehicular suspension system has been tested either by driving an actual car on a road or by using an actuator. The latter is carried out by placing each wheel of an actual car on an exciting unit and exciting the body by an actuator to simulate road conditions. The body is supported by the wheels and the suspension system and the performance of the suspension system is evaluated by measuring the body motion. An example thereof has been described by Miyajima et. al. "Laboratory System Endurance Testing of Automobile Major Components", Mitsubishi Juko Giho, Vol. 19, No. Jan. 1, 1982, pp. 26-34. In this example, a vibration having a waveform such as obtained by an actual vehicle running test is reproduced by an actuator. Further, Japanese Patent Laid-open No. Hei. 7-35654 has disclosed a so-called active suspension testing system in which rollers are driven by an actuator so as to simulate irregularities of a road in a chassis dynamometer for driving an actual car on a bench of the rotating rollers. However, the actual vehicle running tests described above can be used only under a certain conditions in which several parameters (e.g., structure of body, road surface condition, running condition, etc.) are all predetermined, so that it has been difficult to apply the result of the experiment to the evaluation of other conditions. In addition, recently developed active suspension systems which introduce a feedback signal to a controller of a suspension, enlarge the scale of the test and lack generality because the actual vehicle is used. The same applies also in the case of the exciting test. Since the active suspension system requires information on operating feedback signals, those exciting methods which do not provide such information are unable to deal with such suspension. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle testing method and apparatus which allow performance or durability testing of the suspension system, including active suspension systems, to be carried out readily under various conditions. According to a first embodiment of the invention for achieving the aforementioned object, a vehicle testing system comprises a frame; at least one first exciting unit whose one end is fixed and whose other end is connected with the frame; a reaction measuring unit attached to the frame for measuring reaction force generated by a specimen linked to the frame; a computing unit for computing a control signal for controlling the first exciting unit based on a value of reaction force measured by the reaction measuring unit; and a second exciting unit whose one end is fixed and whose other end is disposed in contact with the specimen. According to a second embodiment of the invention for achieving the aforementioned object, a vehicle testing system comprises a dummy body equipped with a frame and at least one first exciting unit whose one end is fixed and whose other end is connected with the frame; a reaction measuring unit attached to the frame for measuring reaction force generated by a suspension system linked to the frame; a digital computer for computing a control signal for controlling the first exciting unit based on a value of reaction force measured by the reaction measuring unit; and a second exciting unit whose one end is fixed and whose other end is disposed in contact with the suspension system. Preferably, the digital computer comprises a storage unit for storing numerical model data for a vehicle-body; a body motion calculating unit for calculating a motion of the body using the body numerical model data; and a time control unit for controlling the operation of the reaction measuring unit and the body-motion calculating unit. The second exciting unit may be connected with a second digital computer comprising a memory for storing vehicle running conditions and road surface conditions; a control-signal calculating unit for outputting a signal to control the second exciting unit using the stored running conditions and road surface conditions; and a second time control unit for controlling operations of the control-signal calculation means. The second exciting unit may comprise rotary pulleys; a belt spanned around the pulleys; and an exciter for exciting the belt. Or, the second exciting means may be provided with a second reaction measuring unit for measuring a reaction force generated by the second exciting unit such that the exciting signal calculating unit calculates the signal for operating the second exciting unit based on the output of the second reaction measuring unit. The digital computer may have an output unit capable of outputting a calculation result of the body motion to the outside unit at a predetermined timing and the digital computer may be integrated with the second digital computer. According to a third aspect of the invention for achieving the aforementioned object, a method for testing a vehicle suspension system by using a dummy vehicle body comprises steps of measuring a reaction force generated by the suspension system linked to the dummy body; calculating a motion of the dummy body after elapse of a preset time following measurement of the reaction force, using a body numerical model stored in advance; calculating a signal for controlling the dummy-body motion based on the calculation result of the body motion; and outputting the control signal after the preset time. The vehicle testing method may further comprise steps of calculating a signal for exciting the wheel by using previously stored vehicle running state and road surface data; and outputting the exciting signal and a running state based on a calculated value of the exciting signal. According to a fourth aspect of the invention for achieving the aforementioned object, a method for testing a vehicle suspension system by using a dummy vehicle body comprises steps of measuring a reaction force generated by the suspension system; calculating the motion of a wheel after a preset time following measurement of the reaction force, using previously stored data on wheel exciting state and the measured value of the reaction force with respect to previously stored wheel numerical model data; finding an exciting signal for causing a motion of the part linking the suspension system and the wheel to agree with the calculated wheel motion; outputting the exciting signal after a preset time; calculating a body motion after a preset time following measurement of the reaction force, using previously stored data on wheel exciting state; determining an exciting signal for causing the motion of the dummy body to agree with the calculated body motion; and outputting the exciting signal after the preset time. The wheel exciting state may be calculated using previously stored vehicle running state and road surface state data, or the calculation result of the motion of the dummy body may be output after the preset time, to feed back to the suspension system. The present invention allows performance testing and durability testing equivalent to tests on an actual car, because the body motion may be computed by the digital computer and may be simulated by the actuator. Further, it allows the test to be readily conducted because the performance may be evaluated on different bodies simply by changing the numerical model data to be input to the computer. It allows the test to be performed readily on different road surface conditions, simply by changing exciting conditions for exciting the wheel. It also allows the tests to take into account complicated phenomena (slip, jump and the like) which occur at the wheel section, because the wheel section is replaced by the actuator and the motion is calculated on the computer. The present invention also allows tests to be conducted under the same conditions as with an actual car, because a signal necessary for a control system of the active suspension system is output based on the calculation result of the motion.

Several preferred embodiments of the present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a first embodiment of the present invention, including a vehicle with a pair of wheels, which is to be tested. That is, this system is used for testing a front wheel section or rear wheel section of a four-wheel car. Wheels 2 are anchored to one end of a suspension system 1 of the vehicle and are linked to or in contact with first actuators 7 fixed to bases 8. Second actuators 4 fixed to a rigid wall 3, a frame 5 and reaction measuring devices 6 mounted to the frame compose a dummy vehicle body to which the other end of the suspension system 1 comprising springs 71, shafts 72, a frame 73 and the like is connected. Here, as many actuators are used as necessary in order to simulate the motion of the body. Further, because the reaction measuring device 6 is what measures reaction force applied to the dummy vehicle body from the suspension system 1, it may be installed at any place and its position is not limited to that shown in FIG. 1. The actuators 7 are controlled by a controller 18 and are driven based on a signal generated by a signal generator 24 and transmitted by signal transmitting path 23. The exciting signal generated by the signal generator 24 applies to the wheels 2 substantially the same vibration as that applied to the wheels in a vehicle running on a road. Preferably, the exciting force applied to each wheel is different, in order to reproduce actual road conditions. Measured values of the reaction force measured by the reaction measuring devices 6 are transmitted to signal input unit 13 via a signal transmitting path 14, and are then input to a digital computer 10. The digital computer 10 outputs an exciting signal via a signal output device 11, for transmission to controllers 9 of the actuators 4, via signal path 12. In the present embodiment constructed as described above, the signal to be transmitted is a voltage, cables are used as the signal transmitting path, an A/D converter is used as the signal input device and a D/A converter is used as the signal output device, for example. However, those components are not limited to those described above so long as in the same manner. As described above, because a pair of wheels and the suspension system may be tested, the present embodiment allows reproduction of not only vertical motion but also rotary motion in the axis orthogonal to an axle, and the actual motion of the body to be simulated faithfully. However, if the motion is supposed to be symmetrical on the right and left, the test may be done by testing just one wheel and its suspension system. FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. Although the testing one wheel will be explained in the following embodiments to simplify the explanation, the inventive system and the method are applicable also to the testing two or more wheels as a matter of course. In the digital computer 10, the measured value of the reaction force received by the signal input unit 13 is input to body-motion calculating means 15. A numerical model of the body motion expressed as an equation of motion is input and held in advance in an auxiliary storage device (not shown) of the digital computer 10, and the body-motion calculating unit 15 calculates the state of motion of the vehicle using the numerical model of the body motion. Here, the numerical model is expressed by a matrix of mass, a matrix of damping and a matrix of stiffness which govern and can be obtained by breaking the actual vehicle, which is a continuum, into a large number of elements by means of the finite element method or the like. Further, the equation of motion is numerically integrated with respect to time by substituting the measured value of the reaction into the term of external force of the equation to calculate the state of motion at a predetermined time after measurement of the reaction. While the central difference method is used for the numerical integration, the method is not limited only to that, and other various methods may be applied. This result is input to control-signal calculating unit 16 to generate, after the predetermined period of time, a control signal, which is supplied to the actuator so that the motion at the point connecting the suspension system 1 and the body agrees with the result of calculation of the body-motion calculating unit 15. The control signal is output from the signal output unit 11 to the controller 9 of the second actuator 4 via the signal transmitting path 12. The exciting-signal calculating means 16 corrects the calculation result calculated by the body motion calculating means 15 taking into account the characteristics of the actuator, in order to cause the motion at the connecting point to agree with the result. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 18, displacement measuring means 61 is provided on the actuator 4 to input the measured result to the digital computer 10 via a data input device 62. Furthermore, a comparison unit 63 may also be provided within the digital computer 10, to compare the measured result with the result calculated by the body motion calculating unit 15, to adjust a correction value. Time control unit 17 controls the above-mentioned operations so as to actually cause the same motion as provided by the calculation result of the motion, after passage of the predetermined time. The present embodiment enables a test which duplicates the driving of an actual car, without exciting the actual body, so that the functions of the suspension system may be evaluated economically. Further, the performance may be evaluated with respect to various use conditions or body conditions just by changing the body numerical model. A third embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. Instead of the signal generator 24, this embodiment uses a second digital computer 19 comprising at least a data storage unit 21, signal output unit 20 and time control unit 22. The exciting signal data based on road conditions and running conditions are stored in the data storage means 21. The time control unit 22 controls the data output sequentially from the signal output unit 20 and the first actuator 7 excites the suspension system 1 based on that. The present embodiment makes it possible to deal with various conditions of the exciting experiment, just by changing the data stored in the data storage means 21. A fourth embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 4, in which exciting-signal calculating unit 34 and signal output unit 33 are added to the second digital computer 19, and signal input unit 35 is added to the digital computer 10. The data on road conditions and running conditions are stored in the data storage unit 21. Such data are input sequentially to the exciting-signal calculating unit 34 to calculate the exciting signal. While the conditions for exciting the wheel may vary depending on the running velocity even under the same road conditions, such exciting conditions may be realized by using such data. Further, a running condition (running state) at a certain time is output from the signal output means 33 and is input to the digital computer 10 via the signal input path 35. In a running state, a change in velocity, for example, causes an inertia force, and a motion normal to the running direction causes a centrifugal force, respectively, influencing the motion of the body. The body motion calculating unit 15 numerically integrates the equation of motion, using also such motion state. It is of course possible to consolidate the signal output units 33 and 20 into one signal output unit, and to consolidate the signal input units 35 and 13 into one signal input means. The present embodiment allows the performance of the suspension system to be readily evaluated even when the running condition is different, just by replacing the data. Further, because the influence of the running condition on the motion of the body is added, it is possible to carry out the test at high precision. A fifth embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 5. While the wheel 2 is directly excited in the first embodiment (FIG. 1), in this embodiment a rotary belt 66 is used as a dummy road surface. The inner face of the belt 66 is excited by a road surface simulating section 62 mounted at the end of the first actuator 7. The belt 66 is arranged on the rotary pulleys 63 and 64, rotary pulley 63 being driven by a driving motor 65. An actual running vehicle may be simulated precisely by controlling the speed of the motor 65 corresponding to the running velocity of the dummy vehicle. It is noted that although only one wheel is shown in FIG. 5, a motion of an actual vehicle may be simulated more accurately by providing four belts and by placing each wheel on each belt to drive and turn each belt independently or in concert. It is needless to say that this wheel exciting method may be applied also to the third and fourth embodiments. When this exciting method is applied to the third embodiment, the running velocity may be changed corresponding to the running condition data, because the running velocity of the belt 66 may be controlled by the second digital computer 19. It is also possible to use rollers instead of the pulleys and the belt, and to excite the rollers directly, which allows the structure to be simplified. The present embodiment allows data to be obtained which are closer to the actual condition, because the performance of the suspension system may be evaluated while rotating the wheel. FIG. 6 shows a sixth embodiment of the present invention. Instead of exciting the suspension system through the intermediary of the wheel 2, as in the first embodiment of FIG. 1, in this embodiment reaction measuring unit 41 is provided in the suspension system 1, and the first actuator 7 directly excites the suspension system 1. The signal output from the signal output unit 20 of the second digital computer 19 is input to the controller 18 of the actuator 7, via the signal transmitting path 23. A measurement signal from the reaction-measuring unit 41 is transmitted to signal input unit 43 via signal transmitting path 42, to be input to the second digital computer 19. The second digital computer 19 used in the sixth embodiment will be explained in detail with reference to FIG. 7. It is noted that the second digital computer 19, which is similar to that in the second embodiment, is provided with a data storage unit 21, wheel-motion calculating unit 44, exciting signal calculating unit 45 and time control unit 22. The wheel-motion calculating unit 44 calculates a motion of the wheel in accordance to a numerical model of motion of the wheel, which was input and stored in advance in the auxiliary storage device (not shown) of the second digital computer 19. Here, a measured value measured by the reaction measuring unit 41, received via the signal input unit 43, and the data on road surface condition and running condition stored in the data storage unit 21 are substituted for terms of external force in the equation of motion describing the numerical model. The equation of motion is numerically integrated to calculate a state of motion after a predetermined time following measurement of the reaction. Although the central difference method is used for the numerical integration in the present embodiment, the invention is not so limited. The exciting signal calculating unit 45 calculates a control signal to be given to the actuator so that the motion at the point connecting the suspension system 1 and the wheel agrees with the calculation result of the wheel-motion calculating unit 44 after a predetermined time, and outputs it from the signal output unit 20. The time control unit 22 controls the above-mentioned operations so that the motion of the calculated result is actually made after the predetermined time. The present embodiment enables a test which substantially duplicates an actual vehicle running test, because the actuator simulates the motion of the wheel and the motion of the suspension system. Further, it is economical because it allows the test to be conducted corresponding to various wheel conditions and road surface conditions just by changing the numerical model and the equation of motion. A seventh embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 8. The present embodiment is the same as the sixth embodiment but signal output unit 50 is added to the second digital computer 19, and signal input unit 51 is added to the digital computer 10, similarly to the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 4. Data on the road condition and running condition are stored and held in the data storage unit 21 composed of a ROM or a RAM, and are input sequentially to the wheel-motion calculating unit 44. This calculation result is input to the exciting signal calculating unit 45, which calculates the exciting signal. The data on the running condition is input to the signal input unit 51 of the digital computer 10 from the signal output unit 50, via signal transmitting path 52. This running condition is used also in calculating the motion of the body. It is noted that any type of data input/output and transmitting units may be used, so long as they can achieve the above-mentioned functions. The present embodiment allows the performance of the suspension system to be readily evaluated even when the running condition is different, just by changing the data, similarly to the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 4. An eighth embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 9. Instead of using both the digital computer 10 and the second digital computer 19 (as in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 3), only the digital computer 10 is used in this embodiment. It is of course apparent that the function of those two digital computers may be replaced with one computer also in the first through third embodiments. The present embodiment allows the structure to be simplified because only one digital computer is needed. In particular, although an error related to the transmission of data between the two digital computers may occur in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 4 and 8, the present embodiment allows this error to be reduced and the tests to be conducted at high precision. Next, a ninth embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 10, in which signal calculating unit 32 and signal output unit 31 are provided within the digital computer 10, to output the result of calculation of the body motion. It is noted that the signal calculating unit 32 may be replaced with the control-signal calculating unit 16 and the signal output unit 31 may be replaced with the signal output unit 11. Each unit provided within the digital computer is controlled by the time control unit 17 so that a motion state which agrees with the calculation result is made after a predetermined period of time. Because the present embodiment allows the motion of the body to be determined in the same condition as if a sensor is attached to the actual body, the performance of the suspension system may be readily evaluated. Further, in the case of active suspension systems which requires the body motion state as a feedback signal, the output signal may be used as the feedback signal. Some embodiments of the inventive method for testing the vehicular suspension system will be explained below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 11 is a flowchart which shows the processing when the testing system shown in FIG. 1 is used. As shown in FIG. 1, the suspension system 1 (i.e., the subject of the test) and the wheels 2 connected to one end of the suspension system 1 are connected with or contact the wheel actuator 7 fixed to the bases 8. The other end of the suspension system is connected to the dummy body equipped with the frame 5 and the actuator 4 connected to the frame 5 and fixed to the rigid walls 3. The signal generator 24 generates a signal simulating the road surface condition, and the actuator 7 excites the wheels 2. The suspension system 1 is excited and tested through the following procedure: (1) Measure reaction force generated by system 1 (Step 122); (2) Input measured value of the reaction force to the digital computer (Step 124); (3) Calculate a motion of the vehicle body after the predetermined time following measurement of the reaction, using the measured value of the reaction force in (2) based on the body numerical model data input in advance to the digital computer (Step 126); (4) Calculate the control signal which causes a motion state of the dummy body that agrees with the calculated result of the body motion (Step 128); (5) Output the control signal (Step 130); (6) Drive the actuator based on the control signal (Step 132); and (7) Determine whether or not to end (Step 134). Whether to end the process is determined by whether or not the predetermined time has passed or a stop signal is supplied to the actuator controller. This may be executed between other Steps. (Although Step 136 is included in FIG. 11, this step is not utilized in the present embodiment). This embodiment enables a test which duplicates actual vehicle running test, without using the actual body, and also allows the function of the suspension system to be evaluated economically. Further, it allows the performance with respect to various use conditions and body conditions to be evaluated simply by changing the body numerical model data. Another embodiment of the method for testing a vehicle suspension system of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. 12, which uses the system shown in FIG. 4. That is, the wheel is excited by the wheel excitation actuator while controlling the excitation by the following procedure by using the second digital computer. (11) Calculate a control signal for wheel excitation by using previously stored data on vehicle running condition and road condition (Step 142); (12) Output the control signal and a running state based on the value calculated in (11) (Step 144); (13) Drive the actuator based on the control signal (Step 146); (14) Determine whether or not to end (Step 148). The determination of whether to end the process is made based on whether or not a predetermined time has passed or a stop signal is supplied to the actuator controller. Meanwhile, the dummy body is driven through Steps of 150 to 162 which are similar to those shown in FIG. 11. However, this procedure differs from that of FIG. 11 in that the running state is input in addition to the measured value of reaction force in Step 144, and the operation of control thereafter is carried out by using these values and the reaction force measured in Step 150. On the wheel side, the wheel motion is calculated by using the running condition and road condition in Step 142. Because the exciting condition is set by combining the running condition and road surface condition data in the present embodiment, the motion may be readily tested under various conditions, just by changing those data. Further, it allows the test to be conducted at high precision because the inertia, centrifugal and other forces which vary depending on the running condition are added in calculating the body motion. An inventive method for testing the vehicle suspension system by using the system shown in FIG. 6 will be explained below with reference to FIG. 13. One end of the suspension system 1, which is originally normally connected to a wheel, is connected with one or a plurality of actuators 7 for simulating wheel motion, the latter being fixed to the bases 8 via the reaction measuring means 41. The other end of the suspension system is connected to the dummy body equipped with the frame 5 and one or a plurality of actuators 4 connected to the frame 5 and fixed to the rigid walls 3. The wheel simulation-actuator side is excited in Steps 172 through 184 and the dummy-body side is excited in Steps 190 through 202. The procedures are as follows: (21) Measure reaction force generated from the suspension system (Step 172); (22) Input a measured value of the reaction force to the digital computer (Step 174); (23) Calculate a wheel motion after a predetermined time following measurement of the reaction, by using previously stored data on wheel exciting state and the measured value of reaction obtained in Step (22), based on the wheel numerical model data input to the digital computer beforehand (Step 176); (24) Calculate a control signal for the actuators which causes the motion at the part linked with the suspension system, based on the calculated result of the wheel motion (Step 178); (25) Output the control signal (Step 180); (26) Drive the actuator based on the control signal (Step 182); and (27) Determine whether or not to end (Step 184). The dummy body is driven simultaneously with the excitation of the wheel. Because its procedure (Steps 190 through 202) is the same as that explained with reference to FIG. 11, its explanation is omitted here. The present embodiment allows the wheel motion to be found, in addition to the body motion, from the numerical calculation. Further, the present embodiment allows the test to be conducted efficiently because the condition between the wheel and the road surface may be set simply by changing the preset numerical values, and the condition may be readily changed as well. Another example of the testing method for testing the vehicle suspension system using the system shown in FIG. 8 will be explained below with reference to FIG. 14. The suspension system is excited by simulating wheel motion in Steps 210 through 226 and the dummy body is driven in Steps 230 through 242. Because the procedure for driving the dummy body is the same as that shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, its explanation is omitted here. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 13, the procedure for driving the actuator to stimulate wheel motion includes the following Steps. (22a) Calculate data on wheel exciting state by using previously stored body running state and road surface condition data (Step 214); and (22b) Output the running state (Step 216). In driving the dummy body, the body motion after a predetermined period following measurement of the reaction is calculated based on the running condition and the measured reaction. Because the exciting condition is set by combining the data on the running state and the road surface condition in the present embodiment (similarly to the embodiment shown in FIG. 12), the test may be carried out readily under various conditions, simply by modifying those data. Further, the present embodiment allows the test to be conducted at high precision because inertia, centrifugal and other forces which vary depending on the running condition are added in calculating the body motion. Still another inventive testing method for testing the vehicle suspension system will be explained below with reference to FIG. 11, in which Step 136 for outputting the calculation result of the body motion after the predetermined time is newly added, to excite the dummy body in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 12 through 14. This signal is supplied as the feedback signal to the suspension system which is being tested. The present embodiment enables a performance test of the suspension system in which the status of body motion is given as the feedback signal, without using the actual car. Several variations of the inventive testing system for testing the vehicle suspension system will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 15 through 18. FIG. 15 is a detailed block diagram of the digital computer 10 for computing the exciting command to be input to the second actuator 4 for exciting the body in the sixth embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6. This digital computer 10 functions in the same manner with those shown in FIGS. 2 through 4. FIG. 16 shows a variation of the embodiment of FIG. 15, wherein the content of the digital computer 10 on the body side is different from that shown embodiment, the body motion in FIG. 15. In the present calculated by the body motion calculating unit 15 is output also to the signal output unit 31 via second signal calculating unit 32. Thereby, the calculation result of the body motion may be output from the computer. FIG. 17 shows a variation of the eighth embodiment (FIG. 9), wherein the wheel is modeled, instead of exciting the wheel 2, and the exciting state is controlled by using the output of a reaction measuring device 41. The present variation allows the various running states to be changed simply by changing the operating conditions processed within the computer, because the vehicle suspension system is excited by modeling it. FIG. 18 shows a variation of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 2, detailing a mechanism for matching the calculation result of the body motion calculating means with the motion at the connecting point. The digital computer 10 is provided with a displacement signal measuring unit 61 to input the measured result via a data input device 62 and to compare the measured result with the calculation result of the body motion calculating unit 15 by comparison unit 63, to correct the calculation result of the exciting signal calculating unit. This arrangement allows the calculation result after the predetermined time to agree with the actual motion. Although the above description and the appended drawings describe the case in which the suspension system (or the suspension system and the wheel), i.e. the specimen, is excited alone, a plurality of suspension systems or wheels connected to one axle may be adopted as a single specimen. Further, all suspension systems and wheels attached to one body may be adopted as the specimen. Further, although the case of using the uniaxial actuator has been shown, the present invention is not so confined. Rather, it is desirable to excite with a plurality of degrees of freedom by a plurality of actuators, as in the case when it is required in realizing the body motion by using the numerical model. It is also desirable to measure the reaction force with a plurality of degrees of freedom. The method for exciting the wheel is not limited to those described above, and it is possible to adopt various methods. In short, various modifications within a scope of the spirit of the present invention are contained within the present invention. According to the present invention described above, the actuator excites the wheel equipped with the suspension system by simulating the road surface condition and the computer calculates vibrational response of the body equipped with the suspension system, so that the performance test or durability test of the suspension system or the active suspension system, in particular, may be carried out under various conditions simply by changing, on the computer, the numerical calculation model or the road surface condition provided in the computer. It is to be understood that the present invention is not confined only to the embodiments described above and that the variations thereto existing within the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be all contained within the following claims.

Located in America, Jr., Francisco U precisely upholds every single tenet of Ayn Rand's economic policies. Welcome to Guatemala's Libertarian U. Ayau opened the college in 1972, fed up with what he viewed as the "socialist" instruction being imparted at San Carlos University of Guatemala, the nation's largest institution of higher learning. He named the new school for a colonial-era priest who worked to liberate native Guatemalans from exploitation by Spanish overlords. Ayau believed universities should stay out of politics and "place themselves beyond the conflicts of their time."

Would stay again!Michelle2017-04-21T00:00:00ZPlace was clean and well laid out for a small space. Had everything we needed. Pocket Wi-Fi wasn't the best. It worked but not all the time and not so well in the apartment. It worked best when in the bedroom. Also had a hard time setting up the wifi. Instructions and passcode were for another model and in the welcome guide it said to look on the back of the device for the code but couldn't find any code and couldn't reach host as had no Wi-Fi. Eventually the back of the device accidentally slid off revealing the code on the battery pack so technically it was behind the device but you need to remove the back cover to reveal the ID and code. Great location. We used it as a base to explore Osaka, Kyoto and Arashiyama and Kobe as the shinkansen leaves from Shin-Osaka so was very easy to get around. Host was very reliable and prompt with replies. Really helpful instructions and video on how to get to aparment. Oh only thing is in the instructions it says to take East Exit from Shin-Osaka station but we couldn't find an East Exit...when arriving by Shinkansen, you have to take South Exit and then you will find the East exit (this isn't host's fault... Just poor train station signage). Had all we needed. Definitely recommend this place!Katerina2017-04-15T00:00:00Zとても素晴らしい宿泊をさせていただくことができました。 このような形で宿泊するのは初めてでしたので、最初は不安もあったのですが、Sayuri様のご対応は大変素晴らしく、予約前の質問から、滞在中・チェックアウト後のご連絡まで、非常に迅速かつ大変丁寧で、とても安心できました。 お部屋も、お掃除が行き届いておりましたし、駅からも近くて便利、家族全員で楽しませていただきました。 この度は、思い出に残る素敵な宿泊をさせていただき、どうもありがとうございました。Mayo2017-05-05T00:00:00ZRoom TypeEntire home/aptProperty TypeApartmentAccommodates5BedroomsHigashiyodogawa Ward, Osaka, Osaka Prefecture, Japan【中文・한글OK!】5minShin-Osaka free wifi up to 5 peoplePrice$87 CAD 【中文・한글OK!】5minShin-Osaka free wifi up to 5 peopleEntire home/apt · 3 beds4 reviewsGuardar en tus Wish ListsOur place is a spacious studio unit with separate kitchen and bathroom areas.

However, for the first time to use this time, I regret that you did not use up to now! Of course, I think that the there is a person of conscientious host. This time, it is a family stay, late-night transportation means (Umeda), and an assessment of the overall near the station, decided here (Mr. Momo). The room in the photo posted street, going arrived cleaning (because a small child had, but took advantage of flush against the bed, there was no dust even under the bed), and also a good smell faintly feel the attention of the (host ), it does not even put so of the complaint. The family stay (5 people), was sufficient space. In addition, there is a coin parking in the apartment across the street, was parked cheap (800 yen per day).

You can see trains and station from the window. Very near from the station, convenient for hub or transit.Near Shin-Osaka station. There is a convenience store in a minute away. Also there are many restaurants near by.We really appreciated this location, especially after getting the run-around from a number of other AirBNB hosts. Koji was great at answering any questions we had and was flexible enough to work with us when our schedules changed. Don't have overly-high expectations for this place. It is very utilitarian. The bathroom is sparse and the kitchenette is basically an induction plate, a kettle, and a microwave. But the beds are comfy and the apartment is clean, and it's a great launch point for your Osaka and Kyoto adventures. The only down spot, I'd say, is that we had to go downstairs to get drinkable water. (I don't know if the water out of the tap was good, but we got it from the filter downstairs.) The window looks out directly onto the shinkansen tracks, which I think was fascinating. Some people might be disturbed by the sounds of the trains, but that proximity is the best feature of the flat, considering you can be in Kyoto twenty minutes after locking the door.Ravi2017-04-05T00:00:00ZContact was also helpful if I have to beans.

It is so nice, clean and new. The beds and sheets are comfortable. We also enjoyed the sauna-mist bath experience. The apartment is very near the JR Shin-Osaka Station and can be reached by walking. We tried to use (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Earth (street view) before coming to the apartment and it was so easy and convenient to find. You can easily go to USJ (entrance tickets for the theme park can be bought btw at the JR Ticket Office), Kyoto, Dotobori and others. It would be helpful though if there are english translation for the heater and security buttons especially for the "emergency" button (unless you want some security personnel to check out on you if this button is pushed). Good thing my friend was able to download an app to translate japanese characters and this helped us try to figure out the controls in the apartment. There is also a pocket-wifi which has a strong signal for a couple of days and this device would never run out of its battery life. But after a few days, the signal strength becomes much slower probably because of the used-up data. We also appreciate Yuki's help in making the reservation for us at an almost always fully booked restaurant in Dotonbori. Over all it was a thumbs-up experience for us!Kat2016-11-29T00:00:00ZNew and modern apartment, about 10min walk from train station.

Just steps from Shin-osaka station. Mako was a very responsive host and even worked around our schedule to allow us to check in early.

Shin-Osaka is a great transport hub and the apartment is quiet despite being in what appears to be a non-residential area! Takuya was the perfect host and answered all of our questions quickly. The apartment is perfect if you plan to spend most of your time exploring Osaka, Nara, Kyoto etc and plan to eat out. The apartment is not equipped for self-catering (unless you want to just eat microwaved food) but it does have a kettle - which is perfect for a British person who likes tea! The bed can get a little cold at night as it is right next to the window but it was only a small issue on two nights out of 11 for us. If you're looking for a cheap stay in a great location and cosy room then this is a good choice.Tamara2016-12-30T00:00:00ZThanks Takuya apartments bring convenience and fond memories of our journey.

The neighborhood was really quiet, especially at night, and the bed was very comfy - those I value the most. Also location - only 12 mins from Shin-Osaka station - super convenient if you're having a JR Pass, since you can get to Kyoto in only like 16 mins with a direct train from here (also Himeji, Hiroshima, Miyajima, and Tokyo are very well connected). Not especially clean though - that is always tough to ignore travelling with a toddler, but we've seen worse. Also I was surprised there was no pan, so we boiled a lot, but that's a good thing - healthy, am I right?

Caroline Opines: Bird Report Timothy "T-Bone" Barwise May 13, 2010 at 12:16 AM Timothy "T-Bone" Barwise May 13, 2010 at 12:17 AM How about 5% more certainty that you saw a Northern Flicker? One of my favorite birds. I had a framed plate of one on my wall at my last Amherst apartment. One time, at Tracy circle I saw a whole gang rummaging around the base of the big dogwood trees next door. Check out the Acorn woodpecker, and the White-headed woodpecker. I saw a ton of these guys messing around at Yosemite recently, and a Northern Flicker too.

Verivorst & Mulgikapsad – Estonia National Dish – Day 207/Dish 59 | MyHungryTum Verivorst & Mulgikapsad – Estonia National Dish – Day 207/Dish 59 Greetings and salutations fellow travelers! I have spent several weeks in the desert getting in touch with my innerself and have returned to our ship to continue the journey at exactly the right time! Namely, right now. Our next country is Estonia and this leg of our journey will bring us back to the Baltic Sea and northern Europe. To get there from Eritrea requires us to sail westward out of the Mediterranean Sea and then turn north along the flanks of Western Europe. North of the UK we turn eastward into the Baltic sea passing once again between Sweden and Denmark. Estonia lies south of Finland and north of Lithuania and Latvia on the Eastern edge of the Baltic Sea and shares its eastern border with Russia. In fact much of the last century found Estonia a principality of the former Soviet Union as well as Nazi Germany. It was not until 1991 that Estonia found its independence from Russia and launched one of the most successful and rapid economic reforms in European history. Acting as a mediator between East and West in the days following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Estonia forged an economy that is versatile and utilizes both technological advances and societal innovation to achieve prosperity. Estonia famously enacted a flat income tax of 26% in 1994 regardless of a citizens income. This was followed by a reduction on 3 occasions of the tax rate to its low point of 21% in 2008. Not all has been golden for post-Soviet Estonia however. In the 2008-2009 Financial Crisis, Estonia was the second hardest hit European nation. Estonia will become an official member state of the European Union in 2011. View of Tallinn Estonia's Capitol City Estonian history dates back to 6500 BC, based on fossil evidence of fishing villages in the north of the country. Its language, Estonian is similar to Finnish. Since early in its history, Estonia has been invaded and ruled by larger more powerful neighbors. Danes, Swedes, Germans and Russians have all conquered or been ceded the land of Estonia. Invariably aspects of each invader have become part of the culture of Estonia. Since our journey centers on the food of each nation, let’s discuss the national dish of Estonia. Verivorst is more regularly known as Blood Sausage. Made from blood and barley, it is very similar to black pudding as in England, or in Finnish as Mustamakkara. Versions of this can be found throughout this region of the world and are a tribute to the use of the whole animal and readily available local ingredients found in everyday cuisine. This is not a dish that is likely to sit well in the minds of people who did not grow up with it. It is a challenge for me as well. However, as this entire journey has shown, some recipes can surprise you even when you have made up your mind to dislike them. This will make the next paragraph seem like a copout, but I assure you, I have and will eat scarier things in my life than carefully cooked sausages full of pigs blood. After all, sausages are made from scraps and detritus to begin with aren’t they? In this case, sadly I was unable to obtain the necessary ingredients to make Verivorst. Also it is not something found regularly in finished form in grocery stores in my area. I substituted a Polish Keilbasa which tasted delicious but is not Estonian. If you can provide feedback on Verivorst, I know readers, and myself will appreciate it. I promise to try the dish and report on it here when I have the opportunity. To add authenticity to this dish and my substitution, I did in fact find an authentic Estonian recipe and make Mulgikapsad, which is basically Estonian Sauerkraut with Barley and Bacon. This dish is a winner and is similar to Armenian Harissa in its use of both cabbage and whole grain. I am including the recipe below which is adapted from the recipe I cited. For example, I used ½ cup of barley groats instead of the ½ glass that was called for. Anyhow it worked out and is really quite delicious! Mulgikapsad (Estonian Sauerkraut) half a cup of barley grouts 500g bacon (1Lb) salt, sugar, water Dice the onions and fry them with a little fat or oil in a medium stock pot Add the diced bacon and fry till cooked through (the onion will soften significantly) Add the sauerkraut to the pan Add water till just covered stirring to deglaze the bottom of the pan Add barley and bring to a boil Cover and stew it under the lid for 20-30 minutes Make sure the water doesn’t boil off Serve with boiled potatoes and pork or Verivorst http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/thorgal67/tallinn-2005/1121406000/tpod.html from → European Food, Food Travel, Ingredients, Recipes, The Universal Language Series ← Zigini and Injera – Eritrea National Dish – Day 192/Dish 58 Versatile and Various → September 17, 2010 4:34 am Thanks so much for your nice email! It’s so cool that a number of us have embarked on the same journey, and even cooler that each of us has put our our own spin and perspective on the adventure. I love your website. You write so compellingly about the country you’re cooking in that reader truly feels as though they are traveling with you. And, your photographs are gorgeous! The whole presentation is so professional. I’m totally self-taught in both cooking in blogging, and this project keeps morphing as I venture further into it – I guess I’m on a parallel journey and only time will tell where it takes me. I’ve added you to my list of “cool blogs I’m following” on my website. I agree that it can be a little challenging to find authentic ingredients, but the hunt is part of the fun and challenge! For me, the hardest part is staying inspired when, for example, I’m preparing yet another African dish, as many of the continent’s countries serve up fairly similar meals – but that’s a lesson too and pushes me to be more inventive. Thanks again for your note, and I look forward to following you around the world!! September 17, 2010 6:48 pm It has been recently suggested that the “World Bloggers” will have to do a conference somewhere to celebrate our journeys. My only concern would be where we would hold it. So far there are 6 or 7 of us from around the world. Perhaps we should meet in the middle, like in Iceland! September 23, 2010 12:47 pm Hey Eric … I’m wondering why you didn’t just choose one of the other dishes that is common to Estonian cuisine, rather than go with Polish kielbasa? … I’m with you, though. Blood sausage can be intimidating to many folks. I had wonderful ‘morcilla’ when I was in Barcelona and at first, it took a big gulp to get it in my mouth and swallowed, but oh, man after I tasted it, I became a convert. Totally delish. Well to be honest, I probably should have made one of the other dishes, but although I didn’t fancy eating blood sausage, I had my heart set on some type of sausage with the sauerkraut (which is authentic). Anyhow if I get the opportunity to eat the real Verivorst, I will. I just couldn’t get it here… Hi, Eric. I hope things are much better these days for you. It’s good that you’re back and continuing your project! I’ve given you a “Versatile Blogger” award, which you can pick up on my site. Harry Jaako permalink I stumbled onto your blog as I googled ‘mulgikapsad’, a staple of my ancestors. The ‘mulks’ were a small, stubborn, independent-minded tribe from south-central Estonia, who became wealthy in the 1800’s by growing flax to satisfy the European demand for linen at the time. However, I do have to correct you on one small point you wrote regarding Estonia. Estonia did not become an official member of the European Union in 2011. Estonia was admitted into the EU in 2004. In fact, when it comes to the most prestigious western ‘clubs’, Estonia is now among the most ‘connected’ countries in Europe, quite surprising considering the 50 disastrous years lost to Soviet occupation before Estonia resumed its independence in 1991. Estonia also belongs to NATO, WTO, OECD, the Schengen visa-free zone, and most recently Estonia adopted the EURO currency in 2011, which is what I suspect you were referring to in your comment. With this connectedness, Estonia seeks to protect its national security – hopefully the best way to aviod Soviet-style occupations in the future. Honorary Consul for Estonia in Vancouver June 28, 2011 5:01 pm Hello Harry from Vancouver, one of my very favorite cities both for the culture and beauty as well as for the incredible food! Thanks for the correction on the history of Estonia. I get most of my info from Wikipedia as it would be near impossible to find the time to do much more with my day job. This is a hobby for me and a tasty one but I find that I have cited faulty info a few times before. I appreciate you pointing it out to me. Have you had Verivorst? I am curious to get the reactions of folks that have tried it. I love the Mulgikapsad. It was right up my alley. I genuinely believe I was supposed to be born in Europe. As to the Soviet rule issue, I can only commend the fortitude of the Estonian people and their incredible resurgence post Soviet rule. What an amazing story and I was also very inspired by some of the specific economic policies enacted there such as the flat income tax rate. It sure would make things more simple come April each year… Stay in touch and if I get back to Vancouver sometime in the near future perhaps we can meet up for a pint… alar permalink December 24, 2011 12:05 pm see loll kes nåitab mis on verivorst ei te mis see on nii lolli arvustajat reisist pole veel nåinud

Eat, Drink & Be Merry: Creamed Corn The summer is almost over, but the corn season is not over yet! Corn on the cob used to be the only way I had fresh corn. It is delicious, but it gets boring after while (though my husband would probably never get tired of them.) So I tried to think of different ways to use fresh corn, and creamed corn was the first thing that came to mind. Most of the creamed corn recipes call for heavy cream and lots of butter. So, to make it healthier, I reduced the amount of butter, replaced half of the heavy cream with milk, then thickened with instant grits. This is my new go-to recipe for the summer! Creamed Corn Print Recipe 1/2~1Tbsp butter 1 Tbsp instant corn grits Hold the corn vertically in a bowl, and remove the kernels from the corn using long smooth downward knife strokes, rotating the corn as you go. Scrape remaining pulp with the dull side of the knife and set aside. Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium heat. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook until semi-transparent, about 3~4 minutes. Add the kernels and thyme and cook for 1 ~2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and milk, cover the pan and cook for 5~7 minutes until the corn is tender. Add the grits and cook for another 3 minutes until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

Published: 13:32 EST, 30 May 2013 | Updated: 13:32 EST, 30 May 2013 FINCHES OF MARS BY BRIAN ALDISS (The Friday Project £14.99) As Earth tears itself apart through a series of devastating wars, colonists are sent to Mars at the start of a project to relocate humanity in new settlements in remote parts of the universe. Struggling with the hostile environment, they are encouraged when women begin to give birth. But the planet’s low gravity interferes with the pregnancies and the babies are either still-born or cannot survive. Yet the colonists cannot go home, and must cope as best they can with Martian conditions. The title refers to the birds which Charles Darwin found in the Galapagos islands, discovering that they had adapted by developing beaks of various shapes to cope with the different foods available. Hope returns when visitors from the future tell the colonists that their efforts will give rise to a new and different kind of human. Now in his 80s, Aldiss is acknowledged as a British grand master of science fiction. Once again he demonstrates the power of his imagination even though he has declared that this will be his last novel in the genre. LOVE MINUS EIGHTY BY WILL MCINTOSH (Orbit £7.99) In a future dominated by the social media, Rob is shocked to find his girlfriend publicly humiliating him to make herself famous and win a horde of followers. Furious, he drives recklessly through New York City and kills a woman called Winter. But she is young and beautiful enough to have a chance of living again after being frozen and stored as a ‘bridesicle’ - an icicle containing a potential bride. A man can pay to revive a bridesicle for a few minutes’ conversation before deciding whether to invest a fortune in de-frosting her permanently to be his wife. Gratitude if nothing else will keep a woman subservient, and a corresponding ‘groomsicle’ programme is cancelled on the grounds that ‘women don’t want to dominate men’. Rob scrapes together the conversation fee to apologise to Winter, so precipitating a love story. McIntosh paints an intriguing picture of a society ruled by celebrity culture. Women may be entranced by a novel which concentrates on relationships and emotions: men may decide it’s all a bit soppy.

Riley (1-0)L: C. Lidle (12-13)S: J. Julio (33) Baltimore 5, Toronto 3Recommend0 TORONTO (AP) -- Matt Riley never thought it would take this long to get his first major league win.Riley returned to the major leagues after a four-year absence and led the Baltimore Orioles over the Toronto Blue Jays 5-3 Sunday."It feels great. It's been long road back since 1999. I figured I'd get his win a long time ago," Riley said.Riley (1-0) allowed two runs and four hits in five innings, struck out four and walked three. The 24-year-old left-hander, who had not pitched in the major leagues since Sept. 30, 1999, against the New York Yankees, and was 4-2 with a 3.58 ERA in 13 starts this season with Triple-A Ottawa."I felt like I belonged out there today. In '99, I wasn't quite ready," Riley said. "I was really nervous. I remember I balked twice in my first start. Today, my team scored three runs in the first for me, and that took the edge off a lot."Riley was on the fast track to success in 1999, when he made his major league debut with Baltimore in only his second professional season. He made three starts that September -- his only big leagues appearances before Sunday. The following spring, the 21-year-old arrived late for several practices.He struggled in 2000 and missed the 2001 season after elbow ligament replacement surgery.Baltimore manager Mike Hargrove said Riley has matured."He's grown up and settled down," Hargrove said. "He wasn't a wild man, don't get me wrong. He wasn't a bad kid, but he was real hyper all the time. He was a true left-hander."Riley said he'll give the game ball to his mother."I'm sure they are waiting for me to call," he said.Jay Gibbons hit a two-run homer for Baltimore, which stopped a four-game losing streak.Cory Lidle (12-13) allowed five runs and seven hits in seven innings for Toronto, which had won four straight."I'm going to take positives out of the outing. I felt good about it," Lidle said.Baltimore took a 3-0 lead in the first on RBI singles by Larry Bigbie and Tony Batista, and a run-scoring grounder by B.J. Surhoff.Josh Phelps homered in the second, his 20th of the season. Riley didn't allow another hit until Dave Berg singled in the fifth. Reed Johnson followed with a single, and Mike Bordick had an RBI single.Gibbons homered off the left-field foul pole in the sixth.Baltimore reliever Omar Daal allowed Carlos Delgado and Phelps to reach in the eighth, but Kerry Ligtenberg retired Bobby Kielty on a flyout, and B.J. Ryan struck out Eric Hinske. Tom Wilson then grounded out.Jorge Julio finished for his 33rd save in 40 chances.Game notesThe Orioles haven't announced whether OF Melvin Mora will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury, but Mora is walking around with crutches and has a soft cast around his left knee. Mora crashed into the right-field wall while trying to make a catch on Saturday. He was taken to a hospital for X-rays and an MRI exam, and is to be re-examined in Baltimore on Monday. ...

Helicopters conduct air strike RELEASE No. 20070605-03 KALSU, Iraq — Coalition aircraft conducted precision air strikes against anti-aircraft weapons northwest of Iskandariyah June 4. An AH-64 Apache attack helicopter from the 4th Squadron, 227th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion was providing aerial security for ongoing operations when Paratroopers spotted an anti-aircraft artillery piece not far from a house they were raiding. The helicopter destroyed the artillery piece with two missiles to prevent it from being used against the Iraqi or Coalition Forces in the area. In the last three days, the Paratroopers and the 227th ARB have destroyed seven anti-aircraft weapons.

North of Taji, Coalition Forces captured an alleged key leader in the Rusafa vehicle-borne improvised explosive device network. Coalition Forces also detained another suspected al-Qaeda in Iraq terrorist on the scene. Based on information from a suspected terrorist detained May 29, Coalition Forces captured an alleged al-Qaeda facility manager who operates a safe house southwest of Tarmiyah. In Mosul, Coalition Forces raided two buildings and detained two suspected terrorists, one of whom is allegedly the assistant to a senior terrorist leader captured May 29. During continued operations to disrupt the al-Qaeda in Iraq network in Anbar province, Coalition Forces conducted a raid on four associated buildings northeast of Fallujah. The ground force detained 13 suspected terrorists for their association with a cell that carries out attacks against Iraqis and Coalition Forces with VBIEDs, snipers, and mortars, and targets Iraqi infrastructure. “Our continuing operations are frustrating al-Qaeda in Iraq’s ability to operate,” said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, MNF-I spokesperson. “We are targeting them, detaining them, and they in turn are giving us information to disrupt the networks further.” FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT THE COMBINED PRESS INFORMATION CENTER at: cpicpressdesk@iraq.centcom.mil.This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it And finally this one...from HERE Thanks Reuters.

The Black Hawk transport helicopter was brought down on January 20 north of Baghdad as it was ferrying troops on a routine run to the capital. The military's top medical officer in Iraq and two other senior officers were among those killed... ...The helicopters landed and deployed the troops they had been carrying to set up a perimeter around the downed aircraft until Apache attack helicopters arrived on the scene. ...

STARDREAMING With Sherry Blue Sky: In Pursuit of a Really Profound Thought google image for Deep Thought Wild Woman searches the cupboards for a Really Deep Thought. She looks under the bed, finding only dust bunnies there. They require a vacuum, so no further thoughts need apply. Wild Woman, these days, is in pursuit of a exhaustion and profound thinking being counter-intuitive. They have invaded her nighttime repose with Machines and face-masks. Her profoundest thought, as she rises headachey, exhausted and grim in the morning is: the cure being Thankfully, a mite of humor is, just barely, sustaining her. Corey, known to us as Herotomost, has set us the challenge, over at Real Toads, to write a bit of personal philosophy, the Pursuit of a Really Profound Thought. I tried, and I failed. But one Posts On, regardless. Eventually, everything always Gets Better. (Perhaps THAT is my nugget of personal philosophy:)) Kerry O'ConnorJune 21, 2013 at 11:45 AMHaha! Oh, Sherry, I had to laugh at the tone of this piece - even though the subject matter (especially of your horrible night mask) is serious. The cure is often so much worse than the disease, isn't it? ReplyDeletePeggyJune 21, 2013 at 3:08 PMI really enjoyed the feel of spirit in this! It does seem to me almost impossible to think of something profound when I feel directed to do so. I am reading what others are writing here to try and find profound inspiration!ReplyDeleteKay L.

Take that machine into the forest where it can take on the spirit of healing bring it back in a more friendly way. I love that your poem has the humor of which you speak. The consideration of profundity under stress is a mighty profound subject that will never have time to gather dust, mold, or moss.ReplyDeleteSusie ClevengerJune 21, 2013 at 9:55 PMHumor can see us through some of the toughest things..so sorry you must sleep under an umbilical chord to a machine...but I so enjoyed the smiles I got from reading this. :)ReplyDeleteMargaretJune 21, 2013 at 10:32 PMPhilosophy is pretty dry without a sense of humor!

A model attribution edit summary (using German): Content in this edit is translated from the existing German Wikipedia article at [[:de:Exact name of German article]]; see its history for attribution. The Kikiallus Indian Nation is a non-federally recognized tribe in Skagit County, Washington, United States. They are sometimes erroneously referred to as recognized by the state government,[1] according to the Governor's Office of Indian Affairs in 2008, however, but there is no recognition by the state for this tribe. ^ Robert H. Ruby / John A. Brown: A Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest, University of Oklahoma Press 1992, p 90] The Kikiaullus Indians are The Aboriginal Indians of Skadgit County. They resided on the banks of the Skagit River in La Conner near and Fir Island area. The chiefs daughter Mary Hichiblow born married James Abbot one of the first explorers of the day, this was before British Explorers came an claimed they had discovered the are. James Abbot a Squaw man lived with Mary Hichiblow, just below the bridge than ties the Island main land and right below the fork in the river. There was another Squaw man name unknown. The Kikiallus spoke Salish. The River and bay were a main source of food, their diets consisted of clams, fish, berries and such. They traveled to winter and summer from the Skagit River Valley across the Cascade Mountains South as far as the Seattle Area. The Kikiallus are recorded in the Roberts Rolls. They are referenced in the Treaty of Point Elliot. They opted out of having a reservation provided and chose to remain free and carry on their way of life. Today they still remain un federally recognized.

Field applicability and feasibility of the automated non-powered multi-beam lifting system — Yonsei University Gaang Lee, Ghang Lee, Taekwan Lee This study aims to develop a non-powered multi-beam lifting system (MLS). A MLS is a tower crane accessory that mechanically and subsequently secures and subsequently releases two to three beams in order to shorten the lifting cycle time and improve productivity. Previously proposed MLSs have been motorized systems that would require electricity and lack sufficient safety mechanisms. A non-powered MLS (NPMLS) was developed in this study and the field applicability and economic feasibility of the technology were analyzed through field tests. The analysis results showed that the elimination of lugs and the reduction of labor costs can yield considerable economic benefits. Above all, the major benefits of the NPMLS are improvements in workability and safety during steel construction. Field observations showed the NPMLS to be much safer and to afford much easier control of steel members than the traditional method. In addition, the learning curve of NPMLS was found to be very short. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2012.06.005 10.1016/j.autcon.2012.06.005 Fingerprint Dive into the research topics of 'Field applicability and feasibility of the automated non-powered multi-beam lifting system'.

Scituate debuts in girls' soccer Top 20 poll - Boston High School Blog - ESPN Boston Scituate debuts in girls' soccer Top 20 poll Peabody remains No. 1 both nationally and in our latest MIAA girls' soccer Top 20 poll. The Franklin Panthers perfect season continue and has moved them up two spots to No. 3. Medfield and Whitman-Hanson have done little wrong, but the dominant play of the Panthers means that draws are enough to drop a spot. Back-to-back draws dropped Duxbury a few spots behind still perfect Cardinal Spellman and Lincoln-Sudbury and unbeaten Dedham. Oliver Ames and Concord-Carlisle remain in the top 20 despite losses. OA fell 1-0 to No. 6 Canton and all three of its defeats are to teams in the top 6. The Patriots lost 2-0 to Peabody and pushed the Tanners as much as anyone this season. Bishop Feehan continue to be in and out of the rankings. The Shamrocks are replaced this week by Scituate, which beat North Quincy to take control of the Patriot League's Fisher Division. There are several key match-ups this week to watch, led by No. 8 Nashoba facing No. 15 Algonquin in a central showdown on Thursday, No. 3 Franklin facing a streaking North Attleborough team on Friday, No. 7 Needham playing Winchester on Saturday, and No. 5 Whitman-Hanson traveling to No. 12 Duxbury on Monday.

Dragons Knitting Lace: The Bow Flex This...thing... Lives in my craft/spare/soon to be office/bedroom...and it's scary. I guess if you were not a 40 something, 5 ft tall, severely overweight and totally out of shape woman it wouldn't be so scary...However, I am a 40 something, 5 ft tall, severely overweight and totally out of shape woman, so it's scary. Well, today I made it's acquaintance. I actually went in and USED it! The person we bought it from still had the work-out poster and I did all the upper body exercised on it. I will TRY and do the lower body work-out tomorrow. I was really surprised that no longer than what I was on the machine, I have jelly arms and my abs are kind of the "gonna really hurt tomorrow" feel already...did I mention just HOW out of shape I am? I used 15 pounds of resistance and did reps of 12, one rep per exercise. I know it isn't much, but I did it. I made the decision to, for that brief few moments, to take care of me...and I'm glad. I grew up in a house where the mother figure - my grandmother - never did for herself. She always did for everyone else and had a tendency to be over critical when I would do something for me and inform me that I was selfish and I was bad for doing those things. Long story short. To make the decision to do these few things, as menial and small as they are, for me. To take care of me. Is, to me, a big deal. I'm really proud of the fact that I have maintained what I have been doing this long, yeah 16 days isn't that long, but it is. It takes 28 days to create or get rid of a habit. I am 12 days away from cementing a habit of healthier food choices. If I do the bow flex tomorrow, I will be 26 days away from cementing a habit of strength training...now to start walking. I like to walk, I DON'T like to walk on the street. We don't have sidewalks on our block, so you have to walk in the street. As stupid as it is, because no one drives crazy on our block, it makes me very, very nervous. I feel like I am being watched and it bothers me. Now to just get past that...TTFN Posted by Dragons Knitting Lace at 12:25 PM

Page 240 (1965: The Landing and the Buildup) 22-24 Nov-On the late afternoon of 22 November, at the request of CG, I Corps, 3/7 began reinforcing an ARVN Ranger battalion which had come under attack by an estimated VC regiment about 20 miles south of Quang Ngai. At the same time, the Seventh Fleet SLF moved to a position off Quang Ngai, ready to land on two hours notice. Before the Marines arrived, 71 ARVN had been killed, 74 wounded, and 2 were missing. VC losses were 175 KIA by U.S. body count and 225 by ARVN estimate, not including those killed by air or naval gunfire beyond the immediate battle area. Three VC were captured, in addition to 5 recoilless rifles, 9 machine guns, 2 submachine guns, and 114 rifles. Six enemy 60mm mortars were destroyed. An undetermined number of enemy dead were credited to Marine strike aircraft, which flew 39 sorties in marginal weather against the initial assaults. When the Marines landed, they secured the landing zones, occupied night defensive positions, and early the next morning cleared the critical terrain, capturing 17 Viet Cong, killing 3, and seizing 2 rifles and 5 carbines. On the morning of the 24th the situation was stabilized and 3/7 returned to Chu Lai by helicopter. Marine losses in the encounter were two killed and one wounded. 23 Nov-By this date there were approximately 20 scout/sniper teams of four men each positioned throughout the III MAF area. On 23 November a team at Phu Bai killed two VC and wounded one at a range of 1,000 meters. 30 Nov-1 Dec-Operation DAGGER THRUST IV. On 30 November the SLF (BLT 2/1 and HMM-261) executed an amphibious raid at Lang Ke Ga, on the coast 17 miles southwest of Phan Thiet and about 70 miles east of Saigon. Immediately prior to the landing, leaflets were dropped along the routes of advance, giving brief warning to the villagers. Contact was negligible.

food science - What is the role of butter in mash gravy? - Seasoned Advice What is the role of butter in mash gravy? [closed] I am making a gravy for mashed potatoes. Looking at recipes online, I have found that a few of them don't require any butter, while others use them to varying ratios (to broth/water) What is the role of this ingredient in an excellent gravy for mashed potatoes? Fat. Butter is rich in fat, and the increased fat in gravy helps it to coat and stick to the starchy molecules of the potatoes better, so they come together better in each bite. Thickening. The oil in butter and the broth used in most gravy come together as an emulsion of sorts, like the way mayonnaise is made. This helps to thicken the gravy. food-science butter gravy edited Oct 21 '17 at 16:48 asked Oct 21 '17 at 10:17 66555 silver badges1414 bronze badges Your question is unclear. Do you mean making a roux gravy, or adding butter at the end to a starch gravy, or something else? If these terms confuse you, you can just post an example of the recipes you mean. – rumtscho♦ Oct 21 '17 at 10:59 Butter in general is for texture, moisture, and taste. With any dish there will be variations. – paparazzo Oct 21 '17 at 14:05 @rumtscho I meant a gravy for mashed potatoes, which usually involves butter, flour, beef or vegetable broth and ingredients for flavour, like onions and mushrooms. – user60513 Oct 21 '17 at 16:49 @user60513 this is an ingredient list, not a recipe. We cannot tell you anything about the role of the butter without knowing how it is used. You'd have to post a full recipe, including the steps. – rumtscho♦ Oct 21 '17 at 17:48 The most common purpose of butter in gravy is for a roux, which is a thickener made from cooking flour in fat. Stock/drippings alone would be too runny, so it is thickened to make it more convenient to eat with the mashed potatoes. If the recipe doesn't call for a roux, it probably uses cornstarch as the thickener. Using cornstarch would be a slightly healthier option (no additional fat) and doesn't impart a flavor, while a roux can add a slightly nutty taste depending on how long its cooked. answered Oct 22 '17 at 4:09 Thank you. However, couldn't the flour be added immediately to the vegetable broth/water to thicken it into a gravy? Why is it necessary to create a roux first? – user60513 Oct 24 '17 at 9:48 Cooking the roux removes the raw flour taste, which you definitely don't want in your gravy. Plain flour will probably clump too. – Evan Nowak Oct 24 '17 at 12:06 Not the answer you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged food-science butter gravy or ask your own question.

Posted on June 29, 2016 by caprikel Standard I have prescription sunglasses, so I don’t have 50 pair kicking around. I have always wanted to just buy a cute pair off the rack! Maybe in heaven when I get my new, perfect eyes! I have one pair and 2 old pair of way older prescription that are basically useless and backups if the good pair break. One pair doesn’t even have bifocals and are only fit for cutting the grass! I did order some new ones last week, looking forward to those, then I should probably chuck those last 2 pair.3. What characteristic do you judge most harshly in yourself? How about in others? I have mentioned before that I am not a thoughtful type and I am especially good at berating myself for thinking of something thoughtful to do AFTER THE FACT. I can also talk myself out of doing something for many reasons, including but not limited to, they don’t want that from me, that seems nosey, they are probably overwhelmed and that would be too much, I don’t know them that well and they might think it’s weird, and why do I think they would want bagels and cream cheese? They probably don’t want bagels and cream cheese! That last one still haunts me. I should probably not ruminate over these things and realize that they could be Holy Spirit guided, and STOP OVERTHINKING AND JUST DO IT!!! I judge others most harshly for lack of common sense. I know common sense is not a flower that grows in everyone’s garden but it’s very hard to overlook stoopid.4. Robert Frost wrote the now well known poem entitled The Road Not Taken. What’s a road (literal or figurative) you’ve always wanted to travel, and where do you hope it takes you? I am going to go literal and say traveling with Honey. We have not had the time nor opportunity to travel much the last 30 years. We would like to go to Europe, The Holy Land, and out west with The Schmenkman’s some day. We are travelling to South Carolina in the fall to have a look see for retirement, so that is a road we will travel very soon! 5. Popsicles-yay or nay? If you answered yay, what’s your favorite flavor? I don’t mind them but I can think of way better things to waste calories on. Abby and I are especially fond of Good Humor strawberry shortcake bars. She was hospitalized for 7 weeks at 6 years old and we both have memories of going down to the University of Michigan cafeteria in the evenings for a special treat. 6. Brexit-on a scale of 1-10 how knowledgeable are you on what’s involved here? (1=very knowledgeable and 10=what’s Brexit) Is this news you’ll follow or is it something you think won’t impact your life in any way shape or form?I was a 10 when it happened and a solid 8 now. I still don’t think I know enough to speak intelligently about it with others. I have a tendency to think if the press is against it than it is probably not all bad. Cynic much?7. Share a favorite song on your summer play list. Heifer Lynn on June 29, 2016 at 8:40 am said: #3 – I am so with you on the ‘wish I was more thoughtful” thing. All my best ideas come after the fact. Or I talk myself out of them beforehand. Another reason we are friends. Don’t judge each other for lack of thoughtfulness (although I never would have thought that of you!) 🙂 Reply ↓ Vicki on June 29, 2016 at 2:07 pm said: I used to love Good Humor strawberry shortcake bars but haven’t had one in years.

Reply ↓ jodaley on June 30, 2016 at 10:41 am said: I think J.T. has the anthem of the summer : ) I feel the same about the calendar filling up. Why? Everyone is so busy and we seem to have to book simple cookouts with friends months in advance to know we’ll see one another in the summer months. I miss the days of running out my front door and all the neighbor kids hanging around and no plans and maybe riding our bikes to the pool. Have a great 4th!

Stamping Hare: Monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop - Thinking of You Monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop - Thinking of You Welcome to our April Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrators Blog Hop focusing on products for celebrating the women in your life. If you arrived from Sandy Ward's blog, you saw her wonderful Bloom By Bloom project! My "girly" project is a 2-fer...a card with a small gift box, both featuring Highland Heather cardstock; the floral card features Highland Heather Gingham Gala designer series paper (DSP) and the gift box, a mini pizza box, is just the right size for a gift card or other small gift. Are you a fan of the Highland Heather color? I'd love to hear what your favorite color of the moment it is. Leave me a comment and let me know what color you're currently favoring. As you see below, Highland Heather is a current go-to for me! Incredible Like You and Rooted in Nature card Highland Heather cardstock (cs) 5.5 x 8.5" White cs, 2.75 x 2.75 stitched square, 3 x 4", and 4 x 5.25" (inside) Gingham Gala DSP, 4 x 5.25" inks: Highland Heather, Old Olive, Soft Suede Incredible Like You stamp set Rooted in Nature stamp set (sentiment) The inspiration for this card came from Liz Miller; click here see her card and blog post.

messymimi's meanderings: Intermarriage "Is there any way someone there could come pick me up? My doctor finally called in another prescription, and I was going to go pick it up, and I stopped at the dog park with PepperJack, and we were leaving to get the prescription and go home, and my tire is flat, so I walked to O'Reilly Auto Parts and left them my phone, which is why you don't have this number, someone else is letting me borrow theirs, but since I left them my phone they let me carry an air compressor back over here, but it didn't fill the tire up enough, so I'm going to walk back up there and give them the compressor and could someone pick me up from there and help me get my prescription and get back home? I can come back for my car tomorrow." How Miss Lizzy manages to speak without breathing like that flummoxes me sometimes. Anyway, Bigger Girl and i got in Cicero (#2 Son had Jalopy), and we headed out to to rescue her. We actually arrived just as she sent me a text saying she was there, and she climbed in the back with the dog. "Thank you so much!" she said. "My prescription is at the 24 Hour Walgreens. Do you know where that one is?" Yes, i said, and headed over as Bigger Girl asked her what was up with the car. "Well, ever since the accident, I think the wheels are out of alignment, and so the front tire was losing air. But it wasn't losing much, and so I waited until late afternoon, when the pavement is cooler because the sun is going down, to come out here. It got me to the dog park, and looked fine, but when I tried to fill it with the air compressor, I could hear the air leaking out almost as fast as the compressor was pumping it in. Besides, you see how torn up this road is with the construction, I realized that if it went all the way flat on this road, I'd be in big trouble. So I'd rather deal with it tomorrow, during daylight." That makes sense, i noted. We pulled in to the 24 Hour Walgreens and i decided that, rather than have PepperJack howl at us if he was left in the car with me and Bigger Girl, we would just use the drive-up window. Driving her back to her apartment, Bigger Girl asked her, "Do you still want me to come over tomorrow and help you with some cleaning?" "Yes, please," she said. "And because of the tire, I can't grocery shop like I was going to, so we might have to do that first, so I can make you the dinner I promised." We dropped her off, and Bigger Girl did help her the next evening. Two days later, Miss Lizzie called again. This time, it was for a ride to the ER. After two months of arguing with doctors and multiple trips to the ER and more arguing with doctors, they did a CAT scan and figured out what is wrong. She's been telling them all along, but they wouldn't believe her. So Bigger Girl took her to the ER, came home for a few hours of sleep (why do these things always happen in the middle of the night?), and went back to pick her up and take her home. This time, she went home with the correct prescriptions so she can get over the infection she's been telling them she has. "Mom, I think she's an example of what happens when survivalists intermarry with white trash!" Bigger Girl told me after that episode. "Remind me to never adopt a person again."

Space shuttle Atlantis Mission Commander Chris Ferguson (R) is greeted after landing at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, July 21, 2011. Credit: Reuters/Scott Audette CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida | Thu Jul 21, 2011 3:46pm EDT The shuttle Atlantis returned from a 13-day mission to deliver cargo to the International Space Station before dawn on Thursday, completing the 135th and final flight."I'm not going to say you're going to see fighter pilots crying or anything like that," Atlantis pilot Doug Hurley had told Reuters before the launch earlier this month."But there's not going to be any cameras (in the cockpit), so that might happen."Hurley, 44, a Marine Corps colonel who grew up in Apalachin, New York, told reporters after the landing: "We each got choked up at different times during the mission."After the 2003 Columbia accident, which killed seven astronauts, the United States decided to end the space shuttle program once the International Space Station, which was half-built at the time, was finished.That milestone was reached this year."Every vehicle has its life," said Atlantis astronaut Sandy Magnus. "We've known the shuttle is going to retire for a very long time. Knowing this was the normal plan, you want to celebrate the shuttle. You want to acknowledge all the hard work that people have done for 30 years because it is an important part of our country.""It's hard to say goodbye," she added. "It's like saying goodbye to an old friend."Instead of about 30 astronauts flying on shuttle missions each year, only about four will be needed to fill U.S.-allotted posts on the space station now that the U.S. space shuttle fleet is being retired.The space station, an orbital research outpost, is a $100 billion project of 16 nations that was finished this year after more than a decade of construction(Editing by Jane Sutton and Eric Beech)

Ramblings of a Poetic Soul: Are you a Stupid or a Smart Frog? Are you a Stupid or a Smart Frog? I read an article that truthfully should be shared on my Environmental page, but I wanted to link so that not just it, but more was read. And before anyone gets the whole "Like O.M.G. a magazine...like how is a magazine (made of paper) like environmental blah blah blah" attitude going...stop and think about how trying to make this an "ALL OR NOTHING" action is harming the cause. Humans are not given to taking the hard road, especially when the easier one not only exists (but is right next to)...so the only way we're going to change things (and NO I don't mean the lame assed empty "change" used by someone we all know) is by each person "doing" something. Remember...one voice may be but a whisper, but multiple voices become a scream. Anyway...the article "Colin Beavan: Advice From an Accidental Activist" by Colin Beavan ( noimpactman.typepad.com ) located on yesmagazine.org had within it a parable of "Two Frogs"... So now which Frog would you rather be? Hopefully it's the smart one and you hop over to YES! magazine and read not only the full article (trust me worth the time), but more than just that one. More importantly take a step...just one and see where it leads you. Sometimes the "easier" road is merely mirage. From within the Soul of Pamala at 6:30:00 PM

https://nyti.ms/1LTePxg WASHINGTON—A few years ago a group. of archeology stu dents became ill after digging in an old Indian burial site in Cali fornia. Tha,symptoms suggested a flu‐like infection. The actual cause was a fungus in the soil. Recently a similar outbreak among doctors and nurses was traced to contaminated plaster of paris in a patient's cast, Again, the villain proved to be, not a virus or bacterium, but a fungus. Specialists, called mycologists, realize there is a whole world of disease in which fungi are the causes. Nonspecialists, lay men and doctors alike, are often largely ignorant of this world. At an international meeting here last week one expert com pared this disease problem to an iceberg—huge and largely hidden by man's ignorance, with only some peaks and crags visible and known. Some of the most widespread of. these ‘diseases are minor athlete's foot, for example, which may affect eight. Ameri cans out of every 10 at one time or another. Others are severe and occasionally fatal, their real numbers unknown becauSe there is seldom any requirement to report them to public health of ficials and because their syinp toms can mimic almost anything from tuberculosis to cancer or even insanity. The diseases are particularly widespread in. Latin America the conference was sponsored by the Pan American Health Organ ization — but some forms are also common in parts of the United States. For example, one speaker said It is estimated that 40 million Americans alive today have had histoplasmosis, a fungus dis ease that can mimic such com mon afflictions as the common cold or flu. In more severe cases it can cause pneumonia. One of the most potentially severe of the fungus infections is a type called cryptococcosis, which has a marked tendency to invade the central nervous system when the attack is se vere. It can cause effects like those of tuberculosis, cancer, a brain tumor or even insanity. Dr. Libero Ajello, of the National Communicable Disease Center, said doctors’ failure to recognize this mimicry causes delays in proper diagnosis and treatment and, sometimes, may even lead to commitment of the patient to a mental institution. The disease causes about 70 known ‘deaths a year in the United States, but estimates of the total illness this infection causes are little more than guesswork. In only a very few states are doctors required to report the infections. Another speaker said there have been cases in which the effects of a fungus infection in the lungs had been mistaken for lung cancer. The patients were subjected to surgery that might have been avoided if the proper diagnosis had r been made in time. Fungus diseases, particu larly histoplasinosis, are often mistaken for tuberculosis — a confusion that also may lead to incorrect treatment of the pa tient. In general; the fungus‐caused infections present a markedly different public health problem from the diseases caused by bac teria or viruses. There‐are only a few drugs effective in treat ing them, the doctors said notably griseofulvin, which Is taken by mouth for some of the minor skin Infections, and the antibiotic amphotericin, which Is given by direct infusion into a vein in serious cases of the in fections that reach deep into the body. Some severe cases of fungus infection may require surgery, even amputation of a limb. The much more common mild cases often go untreated or with rough ly the mild supportive treatment that might be given for a com mon cold. The minor skin infec tions are often treated with an externally applied medication, but specialists differ on the ef fectiveness of these methods. Public health preventive meas ures are also usually different for the fungus diseases than for others Even though they may mimic flu or tuberculosis, these ailments are not ordinarily trans mitted from person to person as virus and bacterial diseases are. Instead, the fungus diseases are often carried by dust, en tering the body by inhalation.

“So what are we going to do about it?” Here’s one answer, David – Mike Pitts – Digging Deeper “So what are we going to do about it?” Here’s one answer, David mikepitts Stonehenge August 13, 2010 September 5, 2010 2 Minutes Delighted to see that David Cameron is such a strong supporter of tourism. We have a long way to go to break the cultural snobbery that separates the staples of the UK industry – catering, accommodation, tour guides, campsites, postcards, guidebooks, souvenirs and so on – from middle class respectability. It’s better than it was, but sometimes it seems that the shame of engagement can only be tempered by calling it art, and littering the countryside with half-baked works whose cost might have been more creatively and productively deployed by addressing the needs of tourists instead of interfering with their experiences. Anyway, as Cameron said in his speech yesterday, “Tourism is a fiercely competitive market, requiring skills, talent, enterprise and a government that backs Britain”. This was set in the context of the 2012 Olympics – as was the new visitor centre for Stonehenge when proposed by the last government. What with Snowdonia, Devon and Cornwall, the Lake District, Norfolk, the Inner Hebrides, the Highlands of Scotland, the canals of Staffordshire, Oban, Llandudno, Torquay, Deal, “our historic monuments, our castles, country houses, churches, theatres and festivals… beautiful beaches… national parks, our hundreds of historic gardens and national network of waterways… our museums [including the British Museum, the National Gallery and the [sic] Tate Modern]… Glyndebourne and Glastonbury… the Bristol Old Vic and the Edinburgh Fringe. The Bodleian Library and the Hay literary festival. Ascot and the Millennium Stadium; Nelson’s column and the Olympic Park’s Orbit” – phew! – Cameron had no time to mention Stonehenge. But I’m sure he had Stonehenge in mind, not least when he praised John Penrose, minister for tourism and heritage for the skills he brings to the job. After the Treasury took such pleasure in June in claiming to cancel the Stonehenge project – an action in fact not within its powers – it was sensitive of Cameron to avoid mentioning the stones. So let’s say it for him. • Stonehenge is one of the world’s most recognisable icons of cultural history (“When I asked what England meant to them, the answers went: Stonehenge, Harry Potter, fish and chips…”: Blake Morrison talking to Japanese schoolgirls in 2002). • Stonehenge is one of the UK’s most popular and must-see tourist destinations, attracting around a million visitors a year, of whom 50–60% are international. • Stonehenge’s present state has long been agreed by parliament and international commentators to be a disgrace. • An imaginative, creative plan to transform visitors’ experiences – from access and parking to a new museum, toilets and cafe – and Stonehenge itself, by removing roads nearby, has planning consent and is ready to start. • This plan was designed to be cheap and cost-effective by the previous government, after it dropped a more ambitious scheme, and ready in time for the 2012 Olympics. But now that the Treasury has withdrawn its promise of £10m, it needs new sources of funding to happen. • Stonehenge is Stonehenge. Picture Post put it on its cover in 1947 to lead an issue devoted to the post-war crisis. Stonehenge could now be a symbol for us and the world, of reflection, regeneration and creativity in the face of the modern crisis. “Can we seize the opportunity”, said Cameron, “of this great decade of sport – and especially the Olympics – to deliver a lasting tourism legacy for the whole country and not just here in London?” Stonehenge awaits. Published August 13, 2010 September 5, 2010 Previous Post Extraordinary find at Marden henge Next Post Fascinating photo essay with human skulls 2 thoughts on ““So what are we going to do about it?” Here’s one answer, David” Last year the MD of a major tour company operating out of London was considering how poor numbers on their Paris weekend trip could be improved. He was only half joking when he said send the coach via Stonehenge, that will fill it up! Call me old and cynical but I wasn’t too upset when Dave cancelled the new Stonehenge centre. What would it have been like? A massive government theme park and money making machine designed to draw in yet more tourists? Would it have contributed anything to our knowlede or understanding? Better to keep it as a national disgrace and a bit awkward to get to – anyone with a serious interest will find a way of getting there and learning.

Delta Blames Sequester for Low Demand - AOL Finance Delta Blames Sequester for Low Demand Apr 2nd 2013 6:47PM Delta Air Lines blamed the sequester for lower close-in bookings in March, according to an SEC earnings report filed today. According to the report, most of Delta's unit revenue increases came from its trans-Atlantic and Latin offerings, while a weakening yen shrunk Pacific purchases. Although unit revenues managed a 2% year-over-year increase in March, the airline felt the squeeze on several fronts:ReasonCauseLower close-in bookingsSequestrationLower-than-expected demandDelta's attempt to boost yields"Temporary inefficiencies"Implementation of new revenue management technologySource: SEC.gov. As a result, Delta has lowered its Q1 2013 unit revenue guidance from a 4.5%-5.5% year-over-year increase to a 4%-4.5% bump. Although it expects a profitable quarter with stable operating margins, this news comes as a blow to Mr. Market's expectations for the company. As of this writing, shares are down 7.26% for the day.
