DWTS Season 10 – Rumors, Speculation and FEAR on Feb 24th
Why the odd title you ask? Well, I finished a big project at work today and I was scanning my usual places for info – and some of it is scary. A lot of it probably just unfounded rumor. And it all caused me to speculate. 🙂 And I had to put a date on it because I post rumors all the time!
What is frightening me today is the sudden resurrgence of Kate Gosslin as a potential celebrity. I can handle Pam Anderson. But Kate? Please, no. Kate mentioned on Jay Leno quite a while ago that she would be interested and now that is popping back up from a different source – The NY Daily News. I was really scared at first – until I read the article and realized they are just rehashing rumors/speculation/stars wishing that I wrote up a long, long time ago (in DWTS years).
In other news – Anna D. is out for this season, to no one's surprise. That puts the professional dancer roster at:
Anna T
*Either Kym or a new female*
*not 100% as certain of these two that others are.
As I speculated in my previous post on the pros, I think there might be a new female pro to fill the fifth spot. So lookie what I see when I study the old Tweetdeck??
Anyone have a scoop on Snow *other* than DWTS?? Fill me in. 🙂 I also saw that Access Hollywood said that Kym was "most likely not" coming back for Season 10 – no clue on the veracity of that one.
Speaking of the pros (again) Derek, Cheryl and Louis are pimping the heck out of The Bachelor (well, it's relative for Derek – he's not much of a tweeter these days) to the point that I think they might be getting paid to tweet. 🙂 Hey, it happens.
Yo, Lacey fans – I feel your pain, really I do, but spamming Twitter with requests that people sign a petition to keep Lacey on the show not only won't work, but it's highly annoying. She needs to have a PARTNER to be on the show and apparently they didn't find her one. One won't magically appear because of a petition. I'm sorry you don't get to see your favorite – but it's too late now to do anything about it! They know she's popular – girlfriend was in Design a Dance season before last!
Guess who was on a plane to LA either last night or the night before (I lose track of time when on a big project)? Jason Chambers. 🙂 Please, god….
Then there's Chad Ochocinco. Did anyone watch The Daily 10 the other night? I didn't, but there was a sudden buzz on Twitter of people asking Chad if he was going to be on DWTS "for real" – one lovely gentleman gave the explanation for the sudden buzz and mentioned that he "saw it on The Daily 10". Like Jason Chambers, I have not had time to do a little investigative work to see if that's true. Like I said – a lot of these entertainment shows just report the same rumors that I hear and until you really sit down and watch the show, or look up the article, you don't know. So….I don't know. 🙂
Like I said – I haven't had time to ferret out more info on any of this stuff. But I'm free tonight. And I'm not a big AI fan. 🙂

Shun TW0706 Taiyo 8-1/2" Kiritsuke Blade, Micarta Handles
KSTW0706: Taiyo TW0706
2012 Blade Show Kitchen Knife of the Year
Information from Shun:
Shun Cutlery returned home from the Blade Show with a Kitchen Knife of the Year award for the stunning Shun Taiyo.
The annual Blade Show awards represent the pinnacle of knife-industry awards. The winners are selected by an overwhelming vote of industry members (including representatives from Shun's competitors). Winners are judged on a range of criteria—from design, innovation, and function to craftsmanship and quality.
Taiyo means "sunrise" in Japanese and Shun named this limited edition kitchen knife "Taiyo" for the sunrise-like rays that illuminate the blade surface of this spectacular knife. "We aspired to the highest level of quality on the Taiyo," said Steve Grutbo, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Housewares Division. "Absolutely nothing was left undone on this superb knife."
The Taiyo's blade is a traditional Japanese kiritsuki blade. Japanese master chefs favor this multi-purpose blade shape and use it in ways similar to the European chef's knife. The Taiyo's blade has a cutting core of SG2 "micro carbide" steel. With SG2's incredibly dense and pure grain structure, it takes and holds a fine edge with unparalleled durability. 160 layers (80 on each side) of Damascus cladding support the SG2 core, add beauty, and are part of the sunrise pattern. The handle is a traditional Japanese octagonal shape, but it twists and becomes rounder as it nears the bolster in order to provide a comfortable grip.
"We have challenged ourselves to be the one knife maker that stands out in the minds of the consumer for quality, design and value," said Mr. Igarashi. "Our ultimate goal is to create a deep connection with the knife user and a sense of pride in owning a Kershaw, Shun or Zero Tolerance product."
- Traditional Japanese 8-1/2" kiritsuke blade shape—this multi-purpose blade shape is favored by Japanese master chefs
- SG2 cutting core of micro-carbide steel is very dense and pure so it takes and holds a fi ne edge with unparalleled durability
- 161 layers (80 on each side + core) construction
- Nickel silver/stainless steel Damascus cladding—supports the core, adds beauty, and forms the sunrise pattern
- Micarta® handle is a traditional Japanese octagonal shape with a twist—it becomes rounder as it nears the bolster for a comfortable grip
- Nickel silver bolster, sub-bolster, endcap
- Full tang construction Limited Production Run of 300 Pieces

Stevens Alumnus Shares What He Saw in Area Hard Hit by Sandy
Editor's Note: Dick McCormack '53 chronicled his experience while volunteering with Operation Gut and Pump at Breezy Point, Queens, N.Y., this past December.
"With many others, lending a hand where thousands more will be needed.''
That's what volunteering at Breezy Point feels like. People are positive, even upbeat. The tasks of clean-up and fix-up are daunting. A sign says, "We will be back and we will be better than ever!!!!"
There is an Irish lady with whom I've had correspondence about volunteering whose sister and niece were killed when a plane out of JFK lost its tail and crashed into their house in the Rockaways years ago. Just a month ago her house burned down in Breezy Point.
Looking at the other 120 burned-out homes and giving thanks that no one died is sobering. It makes it easier to see the homes that were destroyed by Sandy's lashing. Off their foundation or just beaten by the power of the surge, they are of negative value now. But the destruction is profound. I think of Daniel Patrick Moynihan's words, "There is no point in being Irish if you don't know the world's going to someday break your heart.''
I drove from Breezy down to Far Rockaway. The houses with ocean views suffered the most. My guess is that at least 50 percent have been separated from their foundation. The rest are filled with sand and water, and mold is the threatening problem.
I volunteer at "Operation Gut and Pump'' in Breezy, and the whole effort is to avoid mold after the house has been full of water, which most homes have had in this area. Phil Pillet is the person who started the effort and knows what mold does to a house.
"Take everything that got wet out of the house!" Gut and Pump advises. "Let it dry, including the wood flooring. After that you can decide what to do with the flooring or some of the wood but throw the wet insulation away— be prepared to throw everything that got wet away!'' Good advice!
Yesterday, an older woman came in and asked if someone could help her and her sister set up some portable electric/oil-filled heaters. She said she was told by someone else that we did not do that, and she got upset. I had met her outside the tent before she went in to ask, and when she left I asked my colleague what happened. Upon hearing, I caught up to her, and we went to her house. She said her anger was due to their combined helplessness in trying to figure out how these things went together. Figuring that I'm a power engineer, it stayed with me that these heaters were going to be put together the way they should be and THEY WILL WORK!
Happily, they did, and at the end this good lady offered to buy me a Heineken.
Today some people are coming from Stevens Institute of Technology to write a story about volunteers—what they do, how they organize and why they do it. Should be an interesting piece. I'm in it because of being an alumnus. Why do others do it? In my case, I saw a lady on TV whose house had just burned to the ground and she was crying hard. I spent much time here in Breezy growing up—visiting friends who owned a place here, meeting my first girlfriend here, breaking up, being a life guard at nearby Riis Park for half a summer—and that pretty much made the decision for me.
Grace was going to be in Mexico, so the timing was good. Rita (my secretary) found a room in a truly bad hotel, and we were able to get a non-stop not too expensive flight. I called Dominick Romano and Danny Knowles and then my childhood friend from Brooklyn John McAlinden to discuss the details, and it all worked out.
Anyhow, John was not at his house at 8:30, as we agreed last evening when I stopped by. What to do? I stayed for about 20 minutes and then went on down to Breezy hoping he is OK. Found out later that he had forgotten the meeting and had gone to Mass. I called Danny, who told me that John suffers from "forgetfulness."
Now for names: Phil Pillet, fireman FDNY; Erin Daly, a leader in the organization, and we could be related via Daly via the name, which is my mother's mother's name; Bob Gibbons, who runs the tool ops in the organization; Luke Wigle; Chris; Amanda; Nancy; Tom Vrabel; and Chas Robles, the person who took the people from Stevens to his work site.
There are more people--these are the ones who run the organization. The rest are volunteers who crew the work, and they are truly indispensable. They come early in the morn and often don't really finish until late at night. Herculean.
So now, my time here is near over. I did not do everything I wanted but I could come back down the road. It was that good an experience.
So, what was it like?
I'm glad I came! That sums it up and says it best of all.
I really did not want my photo to be used; the other pics were fine that Stevens took. It is the volunteers' thing, and they are good at it. I did little but come in to a well-organized group and say I'd like to help if I can.
I would do it again and know better what to look for and what to get involved in. I fly home tomorrow on 12/12/12 which, I'm told, is the last time this century that will happen. A day to remember…

One early morning, I found myself at the uber-modern commercial centre, Solaris Mont Kiara to exchange my defective iPhone at DiGi centre. While waiting for DiGi to open, I spotted Dr. Cafe which looks appealing from outside. While I am not a coffee lover, I do enjoy spending my time at any Starbucks outlet since the music and cozy ambiance make it feel like a second home to me.
Dr. Cafe seems to offer a similar 'feel' and hence, I decided to have my breakfast there. I took the E-Breakfast value set (RM 7.40) which includes a turkey and cheese burger and a cup of coffee.
The mini burger comes with a slice of turkey with melted cheese oozing out. It has a slight savoury taste to it. Although the portion wasn't big, it was good enough to fill my stomach although I wish the size was slightly bigger.
As far as I know, Dr. Cafe prides itself on serving the highest quality coffee beans. Like I said, I am not a coffee connoisseur to tell how a good coffee should taste like, but as far as I know, the coffee tasted alright to me.
Apart from the food, the customer service was good (the staff were full of smile) although photography was not allowed inside Dr. Cafe (sigh!). Speaking about the interior, Dr. Cafe do offer their own range of merchandise for sale ranging from coffee cups to tumblers and etc.
And look… Their serviette comes with printed text. How cool is that?
In short, I wouldn't mind dropping by Dr. Cafe for a cup of coffee if I am around the neighbourhood of Solaris the next time.

As Luke, who should be my PA, explained, the dog is a lot better. He had cellulitis as a secondary thing to an allergic reaction to something, probably grass. He's on all kinds of medication, some of which got lost and was found in the fridge. My dad tried to pretend he'd done that on purpose.
And for the record, KIDSes (pronounced K-I-D-Ses) are undergraduate students. It comes from a fieldtrip (that I did not attend) where the lady in charge of catering got upset by someone's offensive language and yelled out "Don't say @%^$# in front of the KIDSes!"
It's been a very hectic few days, Saturday was Carla's kitchen tea, which was a lot of fun, but also quite crazy to set up as she was sick and hardly left the house all week (update: she's a lot better). So I ended up sitting in the kitchen, trying to tie bows on champagne glasses at something like 10:30 at night, rushing home, colapsing and then leaving super-early the next morning to cut bits of wire and arrange beads into boxes and so on.
The whole event was quite fun, very relaxed and quite tame compared to others that I've been to, but I'm pretty sure that was a good thing! So I got home afterwards and passed out on my bed to be woken 2 hours later by a phone call about another kitchen tea coming up. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! But I had to get up anyway to go to a 21st birthday party, where I ended up spending about 3 hours on a trampoline. I hurt the next day!
I was going to post whenI got home, but then I saw in the History on the home PC that someone in my immediate family is reading this, and it upset me. I don't know who it is, but I'd really appreciate it if they actually told me...
And then yesterday was running around like a maniac, giggling through pre-labs and the TAing a neverending flower-prac. Speaking of which, I have marking to do...

because I'm tired of reading
I worked today! Not that much, but enough to be able to go to bed knowing that my waking up actually had some purpose besides getting a sore head and neck (bad dream, fell out of bed). I'm nowhere near where I planned to be today, but it's all progress and I'm starting to get excited about my project again.
On the downside my dog is sick. He was looking a bit ...not right... yesterday and he was licking his paw. Tonight he has almost no fur on his mouth and his paw looks HORRIBLE! it's almost hairless too... so I put some disinfectant on it all and a sock over his foot to stop him licking it (he looks adorable!) and I'm going to see how he is tomorrow. I can't get him to the vet until at least tomorrow afternoon, unless it's really bad, in which case Luke and Kelly will be TAing all aloooone! *evil laugh*!
One of the students from the field-trip made a little movie-thing of photos and videoclips from the trip and screened it today. It's really cool, I wish we'd done that for our third-year fieldtrip. I remember getting really depressed coming home from that because I missed it so much. That's the crappy side of being a post-grad. you get to go on trips, but it's hard to actually go the way we did when we were KIDSes. Anyway the movie we saw today was awesome, but I must admit, the clip of me falling over in the mudflats was a lot cooler in my head (less - for lack of a better word - ungraceful). Still funny though!
I also chatted to one of the new honours students in my lab today. She's actually really nice, I think we'll get along ok. She's also started her own CC - a homeschool tutoring company, and said I can work there occasionally. I'm not sure if I'm going for it, but at least the opportunity is there. I saw the other honours student too, but he and I don't see eye-to-eye much. he's still very much an undergrad at heart (aren't we all) and hasn't learned to distance himself from the KIDSes too well. I'm not saying that being friends with them is bad, it's just that he doesn't spend any time with the people in his own class (who are nice kids, really). So a) he'll have little/no authority when it comes to teaching his 'friends' and b) when the pressure starts, which it will, no matter how chilled he is, he'll be all alone with friends who have no clue about what he's going through. I would never have made it through last year without all the help and support I got from the honours room. I doubt he's even got a desk there yet. And every time I try to show that I'm around if he needs anything he freaks out because he thinks I'm stressing. I'm not. I just know what happens if you leave stuff too long. He's a really nice guy, I'm just not sure we'll be hanging out too much in the next year!
Anyway I'm going to go to bed to fall asleep over another paper. I missed working hard!

because I'm too lazy to post, and I don't want to annoy all my friends
Sarah just sent this to me. I generally don't like sending these around because I know a lot of people get annoyed by the 'send this back!' part.

Yes, I have quite a few. The trick is to keep quiet about the existence of said secret and then nobody bothers you about it.

The captain in Mulan...

resolution #43: I will be antisocial
I've decided that the root of all my problems is that I'm too social. After I left the wedding at midnight on Saturday and came down with flu on Sunday, proceeded to get very little done at wits all day today and now have to take a day off to do wedding stuff tomorrow... I've had enough.
The problem is that I just like people too much. I mean, in general, I wish there weren't so many, that they behaved better while driving and so on, but I like spending time with certain people. Today, after giggling our way through a prelab and getting horrendously bored during a tree identification lab, Luke, Kelly, Luke's sister and I went to have tea in my lab. Then Laura joined in and Brett and it was really nice. So I got to wits at 9:30 worked until about 11, went for coffee, got back to work, got lunch (my mom packed me a slightly dubious sandwich) went to the prelab to the lab and then only left about 2 hours later.
And every time I think about the huge workload that's being procrastinated I cringe and then carry on messing around. To make things worse I found an old PhD, and now I feel all inadequate. Maybe I'm just not ready. The only thing that's stopping me from deregistering and leaving the country is the fact that if I were doing masters I'd be just as ineffective as I am right now.
Anyway, I'm going to attempt to do some work and then go to bed.
Sounds like fun.

I'm such a Scrooge!
I haven't blogged forever. I'm sorry, but being so unproductive tends to leave me feeling extraordinarily guilty and I hate to admit it anywhere!
Last week was vry unproductive. I did do some stuff. Like go shopping for wedding gifts for two of the three weddings coming up, going to spend some quality time with my boss (who is one of very few people in this world who can straigthen my hair without the associated Diana Ross effect (i.e. it comes out smooth and un-poofy). I nearly fainted at a dress fitting and realised that if I'm going to stand for a whole ceremony I have to practice wearing the shoes more often. I also put a whole to-do list for the month togther, finalised some things with my supervisor and organised all my readings into folders. All the while spending a huge amount of time at Biosoc.
The thing is, my project has to be divided into 'chapters' and it's really hard to focus on each thing all alone. so I was wheelspinning because I dodn't know where to start. I hope this helps, because otherwise I'm deregistering and taking a one-way flight to Russia or something to hide from allo the people who have been so supportive.
Thursday was Luke's birthday. I gave him a jar of marshmallow spread in the morning and we went shopping for a present for Laura and got falafels for lunch. I also went along to the zoo and went inside the room with the lizard display. Sungazers are SO cute! They also showed distinct evidence for appetitive behaviour and learning... probably just my anthropomorphism shining through, but hearing the keeper arrive and running over to where the food dish usually goes is pretty obvious.
On Thursday night I went to Primi in melsrose arch for Luke's birthday. I got there first and ended up reprising my role as Luke's PA when I was shown around by the waiters and chose an area to book. It was a real awkward-turtle moment! It was a really nice and chilled evening, we sat around and chatted and drank teapots and took bizarre photos.
Friday I decided to be productive, so I sat and organised my readings, helped out some honours students with a variety of things, went to an awesome talk on Macaws in south america and went off to biosoc. After that I went home, changed and headed out to the other side of the world to Laura's birthday bash. It was also fun, albeit mildly awkward at first considering I got there before anyone that I actually knew, but I got to know a few people and it was fun. the place was strange. It had couches and things to sit and chat, but the music was really loud so it was chatting by way of screeching things to your neighbour and repeating yourself a lot. I also got them to make me a special drink that Joey always makes me, so Luke, Laura and I ended up with blue tongues. More hilarious photos followed.
Today I woke up feeling horrible, staggered over to Joeys house so she could do my hair, came home and collapsed for half and hour and headed of to a wedding. I really didn't want to go, but I'm so glad I did! It was a stunning wedding. I'm not generally prone to the whole girly 'awww' reflex, but seeing two people whon I really care about glowing and crying and really meaning what they said was so special. As someone who has been to literally dozens of weddings (when you're little and you sing, people make you perform at weddings for the pure kitsch factor) today was really really special.
So now I feel like a total Scrooge in the way I've been treating my brother's upcoming wedding. I'm really excited for it now, not just because I get to have a really fantastic girl as a sister, but because it really is worth all the fuss.
Anyway, I must be off, the reception starts in an hour and I have no idea where the place is...

Unproductive in my bizarreness
Weird stuff is still happening. I've got to the stage where I can say "Oh look, a goldfish just carried a man out of a burning building"as if it were perfectly normal. Not really, but it's getting to that.
I got my flashdrive from my supervisor today. It's really pretty, white, 2Gig, quite fast data transfer (at least into m laptop, not my desktop). At the moment I'm typing this to pass the time while I copy the last batch f music from my desktop to put it on my laptop. i have a pretty big usic collection, so that's taken quite a while!
I had a dress fitting for the wedding yesterday. My blood pressure plummeted after about half an hour and I nearly passed out (high heels and all). I fund out that sugar water really does help and that it is possible to retain your sense of humour when you're feeling awful and nobody around you can speak English. I also had a really long talk with my future sister-in-lw, which was fantastic!
Today is my last day with my supervisor around for a while, so I'm trying desperately to get everything sorted out so I can just get some work done while he's away without needing him to ok anything. I haven't really succeeded because there are so many distractions at wits. to be honest I think i'm going to spend the next week or wo at home just working like crazy. I intend to have a draft of my proposal ready by the end of next month, so I ust get my butt in gear for this. I refuse to be apathetic about this!
Otherwise I've been spectacularly unproductive for the last few days and that's about it. My music is copied, so I am going to attempt to ge back to work.

And bizarre day continues...
They're beige, rather than the goldish colour that Carla wants, but I'm sure I can get them sprayed for the wedding. More importantly they fit, they're comfortable and I'll definitely wear them after the wedding (I'll put up photos of the other shoes if you want. They're... not my style...).
From there I rushed off to work (amid a rather nasty rainstorm) and found that Lara was working with me. so I bombarded her with all my troubles and she did what she always does: listened, sympathised, put it all in perspective and yanked me out of my comfort zone.
Unfortunately we couldn't go for drinks after work, as is our tradition, because Joey wanted her to go and keep her company while a bunch of her husband's friends were at her house watching rugby. When I explained how annoyed I was she agreed to straighten my hair tomorrow, so I'm not angry. To tell the truth I'm just tired and I'm going to bed now.

national bizzare day
The 7th of February is now officially 'Bizarre day'
It all started out in my usual reading-blogs procrastination session of the morning. I stumbled across this post: this post
It mentioned the 'awkard' turtle, a hand signal that could be used in an awkward situation to express the awkwardness of a situation without saying anything to the instigator of said awkwardness. It kind of replaced mutterring 'Awwwkward!' in a high-pitched voice or saying 'this isn't awkward at all' to each other.
Anyway, shortly after reading it, I actually started getting some work done, when Luke arrived to beg me to stand with him in all the queues for registration. So after finishing the paper I was reading Iwent off to join him and explained the turtle thing. Then it all started.
At first it was small things, like the girl in the queue behind us standing really close and giving me a really angry look, or people we didn't like takling to us as if we were all best friends. It escalated to seeing that the guy who makes our student-cards has put a picture from Dragonball-Z onto his card instead of his photo and Luke saying "Be friends with the strangers. They stop you from going CrAzY!' as a rather odd looking individual walked into the room that we were leaving (same doorway. Awwwkward!). By the time Luke's registration was over my thumbs were beginning to ache from the turtle sign.
Once that was all done I went back to the lab and pretended to work, when my supervisor and one of his new students walked in and had several awkward moments (although that's not too unusual, as anyone who knows the guy will tell you!) along with a long discussion about keeping a spot for someone whose name is still a mystery. Then we sat and looked at dead chameleons for about 20 minutes before I ended up on a quest for distilled water and he ran off past me going 'Shooo-eee!' - which is also not too unusual.
About an hour later Luke and I headed off to get lunch where we stood behind some gigantic guy who was getting way too friendly with his girlfriend in the queue, while very loudly yelling about the fact that there were 'too many faggots wearing pink' around. The only people anywhere near him were Luke (wearing blue) and myself (a girl).
After that, while we were waiting for our food we went to get drinks, and all of them were warm, so we went, warm drinks in tow, back to steers to fetch our food and switch the drinks for cold ones. The were really sweet about it and exchanged them for me, when some random guy at the counter started a conversation with me about the good deal I had got because he triend and they made him buy a new drink. Awwkward.
From that we went to watch the Weakest Link that Laura was running, where there were some unbelievably stupid contestants (Q: what is the white of the egg called? A: the yolk!) and a rather annoying presenter. Tom won and we were very happy for him.
After going back to the lab during a million other bizarre things that I can't even remember I was almost trembling with the weirdness of the day. I ahd an hour or two in which I procrastinated once more, before Laura called to say that the pub-crawl had reached Biosoc. So we went and met some rather strange people, including 'well-endowed girl', some guy with a palm-frond down his pants, Laura's friend Selwyn and a few others.
We joined the pubcrawl for a little bit, but as we hadn't got tickets, we couldn't get free drinks and sharing Laura's wasn't working too well, so we left and went back to Biosoc. The whole point of this was to get free drinks from a guy we're friends with there, but he'd left so we ended up sitting with a bunch of honours students for about an hour and a half chatting. It was really nice. I've missed the social side of being in honours. I don't miss the insane workload, but I really miss the honours room and all the people we used to see and the weird conversations we had.
By the time we left it was too late for me to go off to a church thing, but I was glad about that. Not because I didn't want to go, but becuse my mom was going to talk to them about a lot of the things she said on Sunday, including evolution and I thought it would be better for me to stay out of it rather than get annoyed and offend people and cause trouble. I figured that if I'd resolved an issue for myself I should let the others do that too, rather than forcing my views on them.
The final weird thing for the day was when my mother got home and we sat and talked about it for a while. It's very unusual because usually a conversation with my mother is either instructions from her and single-syllable answers from me, or it escalated into an argument in a few seconds. But I sat on the kitchen floor cleaning out my dog's paws (she has allergies) and she sat at the table with coffee and we discussed a whole bunch of stuff. Like what we believe and how it fits together and how it's ok sometimes if we can't understand. It was really really nice.
So diarise it now. 7th Feb, is INTERnational bizarre day!

I'm stressing because I have so much work to do. Ia'm also stressing because I'm not stressing enough about the work I have to do. I mean usually I have no problem getting up at a ridiculously early hour and rushing to wits and staying there all day. So although I get distracted super-easily, I get enough work done before everyone else arrives and after everyone leaves to make it worth it.
This week I have slept through my alarm-clock every morning, never got to wits before 8:30 - 9:00 am and left every eneving when it was still light. it's ridiculous! Today I arrived at 9 and have spent a grand total of maybe 3 hours in the lab.
In the meantime all I've done is come up wth a lot of reading to do as well as a framework that might or might not work... I feel so... unproductive.
The crappy thing is that I have a reputation for working incredibly hard, but I really don't. I'm just so unproductive that I put in incredible hours at the lab and manage to get the usual amount done. And if I get myself stressed enough I can turn those wasted hours into incredibly productive ones.
I just wish I could get stressed enough.

I told my parents about my run-in with Creationist-girl and the Christians. My Dad and I had a good laugh about it once I'd calmed down. My mom went on the warpath. This all unfolded right before she started a sermon-series about New Age theories and beliefs. So she's been working in how fundamentalism can be harmful and that evolution is actually ok.
It's really sweet to see her protecting me like this, but I sit through each sermon dreading the moment when she tries to explain evolution. We've got a protocol whereby she comes and runs a fact-check by me ebfore she preaches, but she can get carried away. Does anyone know a good layman's book explaining the basic principles of evolution? It's her birthday tomorrow...
In other news I just sat down and outlined a potential project and various questions I want to answer in the next 3 - 4 years. Suddenly it's not so scary anymore, I'mjust really excited about all the cool stuff I can do. Once I see my supervisor (over coffee?!) it'll probably be all shot down and back to square one, but for now I'm ok!

Growing up
I was going through old photos yesterday afternoon. I realised that a big part of growing up is losing things. Yesterday was my brother's birthday, his last birthday at home considering he's getting married next month. He was hardly at home at all.
I found an old photo of me holding a lizard. I was about 4 years old. I remember chasing them a lot (they lived under our wisteria which grew around the front of our house) but I don't remember catching more than one or two. It was in a pile of photos of old friends who I used to spend all my time with. I see two of them about once a year, but even that is awkward. It makes me wonder how long the friendships I have right now will last.
I went to the vet yesterday. I used to work there (as a potential vet-student) and loved it more than any other place in the world. It was nice, I had a long chat with the vet who has been incredibly supportive of me in all my studies. I also realised that I won't be hanging out with the vets during surgery again.
I went to a church function last night. It was fun, we all dressed up (except me and my friend Sarah who read the 'smart-CASUAL' on the invite and wore jeans). when I was youger I was super-involved in the church but over the last few years I've pulled more and more away frlom it. I was wondering why, I had a lot of close friends there at one stage. Then last night Brian had an eye-patch that was too small and gouging his eye so he decided to move it to where there might be a third eye, so I suggested the top of his head cosidering the whole 'pineal eye' thing. Someone turned around and attacked me verbally because I was 'taking evolution into account.'
It wasn't that they were uncomfortable with the idea, I'm used to that (although the general response is 'lets not go there' which really annoys me). It was the fact that someone I'd never even met before about a week ago felt comfortable speaking to me like that. There was no opening for me to explain what I meant or the fact that I am an EVOLUTIONARY biologist which means that believing in evolution is as much a part of my identity as the fact that I was sitting at a church. Instead some little kid who's just left school and has never really looked at evolution felt comfortable giving me a 'talking to' about it.
Just to round off the incident when I left the little group to find someone to talk to who wouldn't attack me and not allow me to answer them, one of my friends who had seen the whole thing took me to one side and asked me to be more 'sensitive' about the way I talk about evolution.
Anyway the evening ended with dinner and watching 3/4 of the 'Phantom of the Opera' (scratched DVD, not mine) and little creationist-girl had to leave because she thought it would be too scary for her. That's right. Don't look at things that scare you.
I'm tempted to throw the whole 'growing up' thing out the window and follow her around muttering 'Darwin! Darwin!'
But I know that the only response that I'll take is to avoid the church functions in future. Because that's what I always do.

Nice one. Are you happy with the white balance? The mountain feels blue to me.
Could the color cast be the result of a graduated "neutral" density filter? Some brands are know to produce casts.
Yes and No. A lee neutral density filter was used and produced a very slight cast, but it was mostly just error on my part, after some global adjustments I made, it cooled down the photo too much.
I've put up the re-edit on this one. I think it looks better, definitely more natural.
Yup. Really nice.If the first version was left up it would provide a useful learning tool. OTOH we all want the best versions of our stuff displayed.

Gluck: Johnson is the greatest NASCAR driver in history
HOMESTEAD, Fla. — After winning his sixth NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship on Sunday, Jimmie Johnson is one short of the record held by Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty.
Johnson will get his seventh within the next few years, and maybe an eighth or a ninth, too.
In the meantime, this much has become clear: Johnson is the greatest NASCAR driver who ever lived.
That's hard for some NASCAR fans to accept because of the circumstances surrounding Johnson's championships. He drives for NASCAR's best team and is aligned with the best crew chief — mastermind Chad Knaus.
There were plenty of people — including this writer — who found it easy to use those factors against Johnson during his first run of championships. He made five in a row look oh-so-easy from 2006-10, and it could be imagined he was somehow a product of the No. 48 team's system.
Plus, the robotic way he went about his dominance was anything but entertaining. That his run of titles coincided with a sharp decline in TV ratings might not have been a coincidence, either.
But when the titles stopped coming after 2010, Johnson's performance hardly dropped off. In 2011, the worst season of his career, he still won two races and finished sixth in the points standings. And last year, he was in title contention again until the final laps.
That showed just how tough it is to win a championship in NASCAR — even if Johnson doesn't make it seem that way.
This season, Johnson looked as dominant as ever and capped off one of his best campaigns — he had six wins and 23 top-10 finishes entering Homestead — with another championship. And don't give the Chase for the Sprint Cup playoff format the credit for this title — he would have won by an even larger margin if not for the points reset before the 10-race playoff run.
Johnson simply wins — both races and championships — and he does it better than anyone in history.
"I can tell you this: I've worked with a lot of fantastic race car drivers and I've seen a lot of drivers come and go in our sport," Knaus said. "Jimmie is, for me and for our time, the best driver to ever sit in a race car."
But here's the catch: Knaus said he doesn't know if Johnson could have beaten the other drivers in the "best ever" conversation — Petty, Earnhardt and David Pearson — straight up in their eras. No one does.
"It's like taking somebody from the Olympics in the year 1900 and comparing them to somebody in the year 2000," Petty said. "Everything has transferred so much. Everybody is in better shape. They'd blow that record away just because of time and records are made to be broken."
They were all greats, and it's practically impossible to compare their achievements. Petty and Pearson won often in an era when it was common to win by multiple laps and NASCAR staged multiple races per week.
And Earnhardt's seven titles and 76 career wins were stretched over a far longer span than Johnson's success has been (he's already within 10 wins of Earnhardt in 241 fewer starts). This was Johnson's sixth title in 12 seasons; Earnhardt won his seven in 22 full-time seasons in a career cut short by his death on the last lap of the Daytona 500 in 2001.
Earnhardt, who more fans remember than Petty or Pearson because he drove more recently, will have plenty of supporters who would never dream of ranking Johnson ahead of the "Intimidator."
Dale Earnhardt Jr. likely spoke for many Earnhardt fans Friday when he evaluated Johnson's place in history.
"Well, I'm biased — so (he ranks) second," Earnhardt said. But he added: "If Jimmie keeps tracking at the pace he's on, he makes a much better argument for himself."
Earnhardt said he was surprised the comparisons were only gathering steam now because "he deserves to be in the conversation as one of the greatest drivers the sport has ever seen."
Before the finale, Matt Kenseth said people should have been putting Johnson among the greats three years ago.
"Nobody has ever won five straight," he said. "Especially in this day and age with these rules and as many competitive teams and all that stuff. I said (he was one of the greatest) then and I'll say it again."
But is he the best ever?
Yes, and here's why: Johnson is easily the most dominant driver of his era — he has 30 more wins than the next-closest driver since he entered the sport — and this era just so happens to be unquestionably the toughest and most competitive in NASCAR's history.
These days, it's more difficult than ever to make it to the Cup level thanks to a huge talent pool. The margin of victory and number of cars on the lead lap don't even compare to previous generations. The cars are closer in speed than they've ever been — even closer than 10 years ago, thanks to NASCAR's ever-tightening rules.
So Johnson is the best driver in NASCAR's most competitive era. He's won six titles in the last eight seasons and been in contention for three more championships until the final race.
His businesslike approach to racing and the way he strives for perfection can make it hard for the average fan to relate to him; he doesn't make it look like he's doing anything remarkable. But Johnson doesn't have to make apologies for the qualities that make him great: His focus, his intense training regimen, his incredible work ethic.
That doesn't mean NASCAR fans need to suddenly start loving Johnson — everyone knows it can be fun to see the underdog (all the other drivers, in this case) beat the heavy favorite. But it's important to at least recognize what's happening before our very eyes: Johnson, the best there's ever been, adding to his ever-growing legacy.

Is there anything Watson can't do?
IBM Watson supercomputer turns to medicine
After battling the flesh-and-blood know-it-alls on "Jeopardy!," IBM supercomputer Watson is getting ready for its next big challenge – helping doctors navigate the increasingly complex world of medicine.
Watson is being groomed to be a bedside medical tool – digesting medical textbooks, journals, treatment guidelines as well as information from patients' blogs to diagnose illnesses quickly and accurately.
IBM says Watson, with its ability to understand language, can absorb questions about a patient's symptoms and medical history and quickly suggest diagnoses and treatments. They envision several uses, including a doctor speaking into a handheld device to get answers at a patient's bedside or to serve as a second opinion. Watson could also link to electronic health records that the federal government wants hospitals to maintain.

Off Duty Police Officer Saves Man From Frozen Lake
Related Story
COLUMBIA - Around 2 pm Wednesday a Columbia resident was walking his dog at Twin Lakes Recreation Center when his dog wandered onto the ice. The dog fell into the water about 25 feet away from shore. His owner went out to rescue him, pulling him from the water, and the dog went to shore. Shortly after, the owner fell through the ice and into the water which covered his head. A witness called 9-1-1 to report the incident.
Fortunately for the victim an off-duty officer, Dustin Green, was at the park and was able to crawl out ono the ice and rescue the victim using a dog leash. The victim was taken to University Hospital for evaluation.
Although the Columbia Fire Department arrived only three minutes after the call, minutes matter according to Captain John Metz. "It doesn't take long for the body to get cold and hypothermia to set in where it is impossible to grab onto the ice and pull yourself up."
Metz says that incidents like this are not uncommon during the winter months, and that the best thing a person can do is immediately call 9-1-1 so that an expert can be of assistance. He also emphasized that while Stephen's Lake does permit ice skating when conditions have been approved my specialists, it is important to remain cautious, as ice and temperatures change frequently throughout the day.

Latest technoloLD good ways making soybean oil solvent extraction plant
soybean oil solvent extraction plant
According to the different raw material, we do use different technoloLD and equipment, according to customers' requirement or needs, you can choose pressing technoloLD, pressing solvent extraction technoloLD or extruding solvent extraction technoloLD. With our suggestions ,you will find the most suitable technoloLD and equipment here.
The pretreatment of soybean oil solvent extraction plant
Before the material is pressed or solvent extracted, the material shall be processed, first, it shall be cleaned, a cleaning sieve is needed to remove the small, bigger sizes of impurities. The destoner is needed to remove the stones in the material, the magnetic machine is used to remove the small metals like iron, and others. Then the material shall be crushed, soften, flaked, then cooked, all the processing is to make sure the oil in the material will be extracted out easily and thorough.
The pressing of soybean oil solvent extraction plant
As for the high oil content material, such as, peanut, sesame, sunflower seed, coconut, castor seeds, we do use pressing solvent extraction technoloLD. There shall be some residual in the cake after the material is pressed, usually, the residual by using pressing technoloLD is 6-8%,it is a waste of the oil if we do not extract it out, then we shall process the cake further by solvent extraction, through which, the left oil will be extracted out. We have already designed pressers of different sizes, for different materials, customers can find the most suitable one easily here from our factory.
The extruding or stablilizing of soybean oil solvent extraction plant
As for some low oil content material, such as rice bran ,soybean, we do use extruding solvent extraction technoloLD more, it will get rancid easily if the material especially the rice bran is not processed well. By using extruding or stablizing technoloLD, it will prevent the material from getting rancid, at the same time, the structure of the material will change to a state which is most suitable to make the oil extracted out easily. We are the specialist in the design and manufacturing of different kinds of extruders.
The solvent extraction of soybean oil solvent extraction plant
The solvent oil extraction is the latest technoloLD and the most effective technoloLD to extract oil, as we have told in the above, after the pressing , there still shall be some oil residual in the cake, what we need to do is to extract the oil thorough from the cake, to use the oil material to the fullest. We do use some chemical solvent, like hexane, which can separate the oil from the meal very easily in the shortest time. We do have rotocel extractor, toweline extractor and looping extractor, we do use different extractor for different capacity and material. And we design and manufacture the LD DTDC machine, which can ensure the good quality of the meal. For the negative pressure evaporation system and parraffin recycling system, we do also use different technoloLD according to different requirements.
The refinery of soybean oil solvent extraction plant
After the oil extraction, we get the crude oil, the crude oil can not be eaten directly, it needs to be processed further, there are some bad matters which influence our human body, such as the gum, the fatty acid, the bad smell and the bad color, what we need to do is to remove the bad matters by using refinery technoloLD. For the old technoloLD, they do use chemical way to refine the oil, there is a LD loss for the oil. We do choose to use either physical refining or physical and chemical combined technoloLD, normally if the fatty acid value is less than 10%, we suggest using physical technoloLD. Most of the time, we suggest using physical and chemical combined technoloLD.

Guys, I have an announcement to make. This is a special day.
For the first time, I am not in the 75th+ healing percentile. I actually fell quite low. Ended up being 4th, in fact.
I'm sorry for letting you all down (and I got beat by a Druid, ugh)!
Here's a snapshot from World of Logs in Mists of Pandaria. As was the case during the tail-end of Cataclysm, I'm getting spanked by holy Paladins. I'm not upset though. There's a few reasons for this and it's largely on me. This is against Gara'jal, the third and final boss in the first half of LFR.
The thinking for overhealing, mana management, and efficiency goes out the window at this stage.
It's about survival.
The first pull or two on an encounter is going to result in low mana reserves because you have no idea how much you have to pace yourself. If you were told to run a marathon without any idea of the terrain, the length, or the conditions, I'd say you'd tired out too because you don't know when to jog and when to sprint. Not only that, with the Mists class changes, it's like getting new shoes, outfit, and weights attached to your body.
- My top spell was Circle of Healing right at the top followed by my holy mastery along with Prayer of Mending behind that.
- You can also see that I used Heal way more often comprising 10% of my healing done. I did run low a few times and there were periods where only light healing was needed.
- Not only that, I was unfamiliar with the fight. Didn't know when the big damage phases were. Didn't realize there'd be players being spiked. Way to do my homework.
- Kept forgetting to use my 1 minute Shadowfiend. I should just macro that to something.
- Suffered from mana problems towards the end when we hit the last phase of Frenzy.
- Used predominantly PvP gear.
- Lightwell and Lightspring usage is something I have to deploy earlier. Have to start working that cooldown early instead of waiting for health to get low. In the 3 minute span that Lightwell is active, the probably is high that Lightspring ticks will automatically trigger.
- Cascade is awesome in a 25 man environment.
I know I can do better next time.

As a runner I have learned the importance of properly fueling my body.
Skimping on calories & nutrients hurts performance and can hurt your body, too. Carbohydrates are important to supply muscles with glycogen for exercise and a snack of protein & carbs is important after running to help refuel & repair muscles. It imperative to begin this process as soon as possible after a run, but absolutely within 30 minutes.
I have been a little lax on refueling recently,but that has to stop. My current,soon-to-be history, routine for my long runs involved meeting up with my MIT group, running, socializing, driving home (with a coffee detour) and then eating breakfast. By the time I was actually sitting down to eat it was easily 1+ hours later. Not good.
Last week I shared my plan of action for better training with you guys. I am taking it seriously and am now going to include these Mix 1 Protein Shakes in the Saturday routine to see how they work for me.
Mix 1 has two types of protein shakes – all-natural protein shakes & lean performance shakes. I will be using the all-natural protein shakes.
The shakes come in several different flavors:
- mix berry
- blueberry-vanilla
- mango
- strawberry-vanilla
- chocolate
- vanilla
- peach
Both Jon and I have tried the strawberry-banana and it has a great consistency and flavor! I like the portability – I can toss this easily into a cooler and drink right after running on Saturday – no excuses. Check out the nutrition stats:
- 15 grams of superior whey protein isolate
- 2 to 1 carb to protein ratio
- antioxidants = 3 servings fruits & veggies*
- 23 vitamins &minerals
- 3 grams of soluble fiber
- 2.5 grams of heart healthy fat
- free of lactose, gluten, soy & caffeine
A little more about Mix 1 from the company:
What do a naturopathic doctor/ironman triathlete who spent some time living in a Nepalese ashram, a Ted Nugent loving beer guy, and a golf-obsessed reggae freak have in common? We're the three founders of mix1, and we have a lot in common. We all live in, or around, beautiful Boulder, Colorado, we all have families, we're all athletes, and we're all committed to being as healthy as possible. It's these similarities that brought us together to start mix1.
Colorado is a great setting for all of our favorite sports:skiing, hiking, golfing, climbing, running, etc… We created mix1 because we wanted something that would help us do all the activities we love to do, and improve our performance. We also wanted something that was healthy and all-natural. Since we couldn't find anything in stores that met our needs we decided to make something ourselves. The result is our mix1 enhanced protein shake formulated by Dr. James.
Our philosophy here at mix1 is pretty simple:we only create products with all-natural, high-quality ingredients that are truly functional. We believe all-natural products are better than artificially enhanced ones. Our overall goal as a company is to promote athletic performance and overall health, be an asset to our community and improve people's lives.
We hope you enjoy our products as much as we do. Please drop us a line and let us know what you think.
our mission: to change people's lives by promoting athletic performance and overall health through all-natural products that deliver truly functional nutrition.
Mix 1 products can be purchased at many stores across the country and online. Have you tried Mix 1 protein shakes?

thor - If you relay want to surf
don't go to estonia ,(it's a place for girls and buzz)
it's a next to small sea (pond)
only messy wind swell.
wind&kite is ok .
By Anonymous , 21-06-2010
- I've just returned from a weekend in Hiiumaa with my Estonian wife and young son. I had a surf out at RISTNA Point. It was small but fully surfable at about 1/2 to 1 meter faces the wind is a major player as it has to be at least 20 knots from the S/ SW or N/NW to generate waves. Its A granite rock bottom point its a perfect set up but the Baltic Sea is a Sea, not an ocean. Therefore it is hard to produce swell in such a short distance. I have spoken to a lot of locals, everyone windsurfs and kite-boards over here. Which is understandable, as it is the paradise for these surfers. But I came here to surf and it is not really understood properly here. I chose a 5 11" fish to bring over from Australia. It worked well as I was able to get some nice little moves in at on the point. As I said previously, it is fully surfable and I was the only one out:-) The water is cold but it does warm up over the summer months. The water was +12C the weekend I surfed. And it gets a lot warmer depending on the summer temperature, which warms the sea. I know Ristna would get good on its day. I think August-September would be the best time to be here, as I was told it gets very strong SW winds and the sea temperature is still warm enough to surf. This would probably generate more lefts around the point. There are some good inside reefs also here.You can also try VAANA beach near Talinn on the West coast which I surfed also its a shallow beach break lots of paddling here and needs Stong S S/W winds.
In summing up, I really enjoyed surfing out here. It is a beautiful island. If you are over here and if you are a surfer, you might be lucky! Regards, David Finnie (Central Coast - Australia)

Sometimes. - Waves in Estonia are very low. But spots, where the ships drive
in front, there are some big waves. I'd better go to near some ocean, than to Estonia

7. Hepatitis B Vaccination - Paragraph (f)(2). The Compliance Officer should determine whether or not all occupationally exposed employees have had the hepatitis B vaccination series made available to them after the training required by paragraph (g)(2)(vii)(I) and within 10 working days of their initial assignment. The term "made available" includes the healthcare professional's evaluation and arranging for the administration of the first dose of the hepatitis B vaccination series to begin within the 10 days. This includes all employees with occupational exposure, regardless of how often the exposure may occur. Part-time and temporary employees are included in this coverage. The vaccine does not have to be made available if the employer documents the exemption(s) set forth in paragraph (f)(2). It does not have to be administered if the employer can produce the signature of the employee on the mandatory declination form (See Appendix A of 29 CFR 1910.1030.)http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/
"I understand that due to my occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials I may be at risk of acquiring hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. I have been given the opportunity to be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, at no charge to myself. However, I decline hepatitis B vaccination at this time. I understand that by declining this vaccine, it is alleged that I continue to be at risk of acquiring hepatitis B, a serious disease. If in the future I continue to have occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials and I want to be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, I can receive the vaccination series at no charge to me."If you want the above language so that you can simply print the page:
The following is an edited copy of a page saved from the AMA web site in March 2002.
H-440.970 Religious Exemptions from Immunizations

AMA's current article on this issue:
JPEG graphic of the AMA article above:
ChildrensHealthCare.org is an organization dedicated to promoting the legal removal of religious exemptions.

Source: http://www.fairmeasures.com/asklawyer/questions/ask318.html from archive of 12-12-02 webpage:
Can employees be forced to be vaccinated?
I am being asked to produce documentation of immunization for measles, mumps and rubella for a medical/surgical nursing job. My nurse colleagues and I have never heard of this required for employment to any hospital. Does an employer have a right to force an individual into getting an MMR vaccination for the sole purpose of employment? Look forward to your comments. Thanks.
Ann Kiernan replies:
If you were not a health care worker, the answer would certainly be NO! But since the nature of nursing involves occupational exposure to infectious diseases, the employer might be able to ask about your immunization status and perhaps even to require re-vaccination if you do not have proof of current protection.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), after an applicant is given a conditional job offer, but before s/he starts work, an employer may conduct medical examinations, regardless of whether they are related to the job, as long as it does so for all entering employees in the same job category. But, after employment begins, an employer may make disability-related inquiries and require medical examinations only if they are job-related and consistent with business necessity. Also, an employer may require employees to submit to medical examinations that are required by another federal law or regulation. 29 C.F.R. 1630.15(e)(1998) See: Enforcement Guidance on Disability-Related Inquiries and Medical Examinations of Employees Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
So, is immunity to measles, mumps and rubella either "job-related and consistent with business necessity" or required by other law? Maybe, according to our research at the Centers for Disease Control.
The CDC report strongly recommends that health care workers be immunized for hepatitis B, influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, varicella zoter, and tetanus.
Another federal agency, OSHA, says in its Technical Manual governing hospitals [Chapter 1. IV B 2. b] that: "Vaccination for rubella, measles, mumps, and influenza is recommended, especially for women of child-bearing age."
[Note: [Chapter 1. III B 3.] also says, " A safety committee and/or infection control committee should be established within the hospital. Periodic inspection and monitoring is the responsibility of the safety committee. Immunizations, other than the mandatory vaccination for Hepatitis B, should be offered to personnel at risk."
It is not directly relevant to your situation, but a recent federal appeals decision upheld a Navy captain's right to insist that both military and civilian personnel on his ship be vaccinated for anthrax when they were entering " high threat areas and contiguous waters". Mazares v. Dep't of the Navy, 302 F.3d 1382 (Fed. Cir. 2002)
Thanks for raising such an interesting issue. We have only scratched the surface here. This would be a good question to pose to your state nursing society or professional board for a definitive answer.
Information here is correct at the time it is posted. Case decisions cited here may be reversed. Please do not rely on this information without consulting an attorney first. ----Disclaimer End----[Note: we updated links where possible and thus there differences between the above posting and the original file.

Thumbs up!
NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg, cosmonaut Fyodor Yurchikhin and ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano were officially declared ready on 10 May for their mission to the International Space Station. They will leave Earth on a Soyuz rocket from Baikonur, Kazakhstan three hours before local sunrise on 28 May at 20:31 GMT (22:31 CEST 29 May).
Luca spent the last few weeks in Moscow preparing for his mission and passing exams. All Soyuz fliers stand before an examination board where their training results are presented. Afterwards, Luca and his crewmates visited Moscow's Red Square to pay tribute to the cosmonauts who lost their lives to space exploration.
The crew will leave Moscow on Thursday to begin their final preparations at Baikonur. Luca's Volare mission is being provided through an agreement with Italy's ASI space agency. His scientific and maintenance work on the International Space Station will see him making two spacewalks.
Follow Luca's personal blog and get behind-the-scenes information on the Volare blog as it happens.
