social researchers who study how people spend their free time classify
amateur astronomers and other amateur scientists as members of the
leisure" world, meaning their dedication to their favorite
science does not constitute a hobby meant to simply pass the time,
but is instead an earnest pursuit for knowledge and understanding.
In fact, it is pretty much undisputed in professional astronomy
that amateur astronomers are important contributors to the science.
From discoveries of new asteroids, comets, and supernovae to exceptional
astrophotography and photometry, their achievements are well recognized.
As noted astronomer Patrick Moore put it in his 1995 book The
Observational Amateur Astronomer, "Amateur observers have
always played a major role in astronomy. … Amateur work today
is as valuable as ever, and to a considerable extent professional
researchers depend upon it."
also know that many amateur astronomers regularly engage in education
and public outreach (EPO) activities. In classrooms, or what is
sometimes regarded as the formal education world, they often volunteer
to assist teachers with astronomy and other science curriculum.
In "out-of-school" or informal education settings, members
of amateur astronomy clubs who enjoy sharing their knowledge of
and passion for the night sky frequently set up their telescopes
for the general public to take a closer look at various astronomical
objects. Some amateurs, especially those involved in the Night
Sky Network, also engage their audience members in hands-on
learning activities and/or make use of a variety of demonstration
materials to better explain certain astronomical topics. But unlike
their contributions to science, amateur astronomers' impacts as
educators are far less thoroughly understood or documented.
the Universe aims to bring more attention to, and shed new light
on the contributions amateur astronomers are making to public education.
Taking a cue from what is known in the world of education research
as "citizen
science" (which documents and studies opportunities for
the general public to contribute to scientific research and the
impacts those involved are making), the Sharing the Universe project
team and our amateur astronomer partners will be looking at how
some citizens, namely amateur astronomers, contribute to the education
of others. As part of this research, we will be studying EPO in-depth
as part of amateur astronomy club culture. More specifically, we
want to know how "best practices" in the area of amateur
EPO can be shared with amateurs across the country, and what support
mechanisms and other resources the project team should develop that
amateurs believe will improve and/or increase their impacts.
the end of the first year of Sharing the Universe (mid 2008), we
will use our initial research findings to develop strategies and
resources that assist amateur astronomy clubs in their EPO. An ambitious
research and evaluation effort will subsequently document the effectiveness
of these support mechanisms in helping amateur astronomers engage
the public.
work of Sharing the Universe may influence other serious leisure
groups as well. Many amateur scientists engaged in serious leisure
pursuits (e.g., bird watchers, mushroom hunters, ham radio operators,
etc.) also enjoy sharing information and enthusiasm for their field
with the public, and thus may benefit from the principles that prove
effective in supporting EPO by amateur astronomers. We will validate
our findings on amateur astronomers with experts in the bird-watching
and citizen science community, and will circulate our project results
through some of the principal publications dedicated to amateur
science. In addition, we plan to publish key findings within the
appropriate education literature and at major education conferences
for those researchers who wish to pursue and document further the
concept and capacity of amateur scientists as "citizen science

ISS034-E-056096 (26 Feb. 2013) ---
Inside the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's (JAXA) Kibo lab on the Earth-orbiting International Space Station, NASA astronaut Tom Marshburn conducts a session of the ongoing SPHERES-VERTIGO investigation. SPHERES stands for Synchronized Position Hold, Engage, Reorient Experimental Satellites. Each satellite is an 18-sided polyhedron that is 0.2 meter in diameter and weighs 3.5 kilograms.
The prism-shaped device (called Goggles) which is hooked up to the red or forward-most polyhedron in the picture is called Visual Estimation and Relative Tracking for Inspection of Generic Objects (VERTIGO).

we are a vibrant dance space in Santa Rosa, CA, where artists can find the freedom to be.
with Heather
A technique based class that explores all the different genres of jazz in a light, fun and supportive atmosphere all the while truly learning how to execute movement correctly and safely.
with Heather
Like a jazz class but a la Heather style! Who knows what you are going to get on a weekly basis. Heather loves to read the room and meet the needs of her students and where she is artistically. You will get to experience the full gamut of what jazz has to offer from classical, lyrical, funk, musical theatre and contemporary. Some weeks you will also get to experience her process of using her dancer's like clay and collaborating with them to mold unique pieces of work. She will also be encouraging and making available student choreography within the class time. Check out her bio to see what else could be in store. Dance experience with some technique recommended for this class. Diving Deeper would be an excellent compliment to this class.
with Heather
A fabulously fun technique-based class that will encourage imagination, expression, exploration and movement.
with Amanda
This class was entirely inspired by the request of our students of Synergique! For those who find themselves spontaneously dancing in their kitchens or, can't help but daydream of movement to a song that perks up their ears, this class is an opportunity to learn how to turn those movements into a piece with purpose. We will explore the infinite ways of finding inspiration for choreography, while also learning how to stage, light, and costume your creations.
with Heather
As the name implies, this class offers dancers wanting more, the opportunity to get into the nitty-gritty of dance technique, while building the strength and endurance necessary for show time in June. BONUS!!! Students will also learn the art of stage makeup, hair and costuming in the weeks leading up to the show.
with Amanda
What the heck is Fusion?! A very good query, and one Amanda has struggled awkwardly to answer in less than 5 minutes for two years now. She humbly asks you to refer to her short-n-sweet bio, and trust that you will have a blast, share some laughs, and be challenged in a way you may not expect.

Dancers in the Tiny, Micro, Mini and Beg./Int/ Preteen Teen classes can expect to be in one dance per class. Fusion, Choreography and Heather's Class will have between one and three dances. Diving Deeper classes will not perform in this show. Dress rehearsal will be on the day of the show. There will also be an in studio dress rehearsal in May leading up to the show. Costume fee information for this show will be available in November.
Studio Policies
You wouldn't show up to swim practice without your swimsuit, tennis without your racket, volleyball without your knee pads, right? Show pride in yourself and respect for your teacher by showing up to dance prepared. Here is what will help you be comfortable and successful in class:
Form fitting dance clothes such as leggings, a dance top or leotard that is worn under your leggings. T-shirts and tank tops are acceptable as long as they are form fitting. Sports bras are fine as well however, we recommend your skin being covered as much as possible due to the athletic floor work you will occasionally do. Most classes are barefoot but occasionally jazz shoes may be needed especially for Beg./Int. Preteen/Teen Jazz and Heather's class.
For Tiny, Micro and Mini classes leotard and tights, leggings and form fitting top or leotard under leggings are all appropriate. NO TUTUS or SKIRTS.
All dancers at all levels must have their hair secured back and out of their face.
Please come to class nourished and hydrated. Do bring a water bottle to have in the classroom. Although Tone has a water machine, let us be mindful of our environment and save cups as well as our time. Absolutely no eating during class nor gum chewing.
If you are interested in having a locker space to store your dance needs let us know and we can make that available to you. There is a lost and found bin in the locker room for any items that may have been left behind.
Please be mindful that we share the space with essentially three other businesses. There is massage in the far back room, physical therapy in the room directly next to the studio and then private and group classes in the main area. It is greatly appreciated that noise is kept to a minimum and that kids are not running around and using the equipment.
We can teach dance moves till you are blue in the face but unless the dancer has a connection and awareness to their body and the strength to support it, there is no point. I am fascinated with the body and how unique everyBODY is. I love the continual challenge and connection I get to make with dancers to help them discover their full potential as movers and as beings. I use my classical dance and Pilates training as the base for my teaching but am not afraid to experiment, tweak and adjust movements and ideas to customize it to ones unique learning style and body.
When you have trained in and been exposed to so many different styles, genre's, teachers and influences of dance, eventually, they tend to fuse together, and your body projects all of those experiences you have digested. Instead of resisting that fusion, I have embraced it. I don't do or teach a "type" of dance. I just dance.

Hear Imagine Dragons
On Sept. 3 indie pop/rockers Imagine Dragons were the featured guests at 98.7-FM's Penthouse, an exclusive concert series hosted by Los Angeles-based radio station KYSR-FM at the historic Hollywood Tower in Hollywood, Calif. Before an intimate crowd, Imagine Dragons performed a set featuring tracks from their debut album, Night Visions, including "Radioactive" and "Hear Me."
Prior to the performance, Imagine Dragons participated in an exclusive interview with GRAMMY.com and discussed working with GRAMMY-nominated songwriter/producer Alex Da Kid, the influence of Las Vegas on their sound and their debut album, among other topics.
"Night Visions is really a collection of three years of work," said vocalist Dan Reynolds. "We wanted to wait until we felt very ready to be able to make an album. … Finally, we got to a point where we felt ready [and] that we understood the vision of the band and who the band was ourselves before we tried to tell other people about it."
Formed in Provo, Utah, in 2009 and now based in Las Vegas, Imagine Dragons' lineup features Ben McKee (bass), Daniel "Z" Platzman (drums), Reynolds, and D. Wayne Sermon (guitar). Combining elements of synth-based dance/pop with British-inspired alternative rock, Imagine Dragons released two EPs, Imagine Dragons and Hell And Silence, before landing a deal with Alex Da Kid's Interscope Records imprint, KidInAKorner. In March the band released Continued Silence EP, which was co-produced by Alex Da Kid and mixed by GRAMMY winner Manny Marroquin. The album peaked in the Top 40 on the Billboard 200. Working again with Alex Da Kid and Marroquin, the band released Night Visions on Sept. 4. The album peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, selling more than 83,000 copies. Imagine Dragons are currently on tour throughout the United States with dates scheduled through October.

I purchased these tires in the fall of 2014 after a terrorizing winter on a set of tires that cost at least twice as much as these. Now after driving on them from Nov thru February, I am thoroughly impressed. I haven't had this good of traction on snow and ice in years and the drive pavement, wonderful. They are quiet and I have not had and weird wear on them.... buy these tires... I would definitely buy these tires again...

I am always in the backcountry and my Hancock tires are able to handle most every terrain and road condition. I have bought these tires consistently over the past 10 years and will continue to do so as long as I have my car.

I am not overly impressed with the snow traction. I thought my Goodyear Wranglers with 45,000 miles were bad during our first snow storm, so I bought what the salesman said were the best tires for the buck, but in the second snowstorm I wished I would have saved my money.

I had to purchase new tires in-order to replace the crappy Goodyear Wrangler HPs that came with my truck, so I decided to go with the Hankook RF10, because they seemed to be a decent tire for a decent price. After getting these tires, I can say that they are way better than the factory tires due to the fact that they are both beefy looking and appear to be of good quality, since these tires have a pretty aggressive tread pattern along with a high 560 tread wear score. Overall, these are the best tires that you can get within this price range.

How to Automate an Action to Occur Only One Time
The at command will run a script at a specified time. The command is used by typing at and then the time you want the activity to occur. This will create the at> prompt enabling you to enter the commands you desire to run. When you are done press Control+D.
Here is the basic format for an at command:
at [-c | -k | -s] [-f filename] [-q queuename] [-m] -t time [date] [-l] [-r]
[-c | -k | -s] — refers to the shell you are using C, Korn or Bourne
-f filename
You could create a file that would be run by at. For example a bash shell script.
-m send mail to the user when it is complete sent by default with /usr/sbin/sendmail
-d this is an alias for atrm which will delete at jobs
-v shows the time a job will be executed
-c cats job to standard output
-t set a time for job to run ([[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm)
-q queue The a queue is reserved for at and the b queue is reserved for batch. If you add a queue then that queue will increase in niceness, which means it will have less priority.
-V prints version number
Who can use at is controlled by /etc/at.allow and /etc/at.deny
If at.allow exists, only those in allow can use it. If at.deny exists and allow does not then everyone not in deny can use it. If neither exist only root can use it.
HH:MM format
MMDDYY, MM/DD/YY, or MM.DD.YY formats
now + time the current time is in minutes, hours, days, or weeks. For example, now + 3 days
atq to view pending jobs
Here is an Example:
at 5:32am
at> touch mkdir test
at> Contol+D
Unlike cron, these jobs will only run once.
-l list jobs
-d jobnumber delete a job
This example shows that the user root has two jobs waiting.
at -l
2 2005-09-11 09:07 a root
at -d job1
This will delete job1.
Practice Lab: Using at
This is simply an easy practice exercise to get familiar with at.
In order to get at to work the first thing you need to do is enter at in the terminal with a time:
at 11:00
Once you do this an at> will be shown on the screen. This is where you will enter your command. So if you wanted to create a directory called test in the /root directory enter this information for the command:
at> mkdir /test
When you hit enter the at> will show up again waiting for a second command you may want to provide. But if you are only doing one command the next thing you do is hit CTRL+D. This will install the at command you did and initiate the command.
Once you do CTRL+D it will list your job or jobs that are currently waiting
to happen. It will all look like this:
at 10:35
at> mkdir /root/test
job 1 at 2006-09-02 10:35
Now check to see if the /test directory was created.

Melting point
K (Kelvin)
The melting point is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the solid and the liquid are the same and the presssure totals one atmosphere.
Other temperature scales include the centigrade (Celsius) scale and the Fahrenheit scale. The size of one degree is the same on the Kelvin scale (K) as on the centigrade scale (°C). The zero point is different:
temperature (K) = temperature (°C) + 273.15
Thus, the melting point of water is = 0°C = 273.15 K and the boiling point of water is = 100°C = 373.15 K
On the Fahrenheit scale (°F), the melting point of water = 32°F while the boiling point = 212°F.
Therefore the degree size is different on the Fahrenheit scale with 180 Fahrenheit degrees = 100 centigrade degrees. Conversion between centigrade and Fahrenheit is achieved using the following relationship:
temperature (°C) = [temperature (°F) -32] * 5/9

State College's green homes, businesses will get a close-up on Solar Tour
State College residents are invited to participate in the fourth annual State College Solar Tour, sponsored by Penn State's American Solar Energy Society's (ASES) student chapter.
The State College guided tour will showcase several energy-efficient homes and businesses that are bringing their owners ample economic and environmental rewards. The tour will run from 1 to 5 p.m. Oct. 6, beginning at the MorningSTAR solar home on Penn State's University Park campus. Each stop on the tour will come with a unique story and direct perspectives of businesses, homeowners and installers about costs, energy savings, processes and benefits of going solar, including solar hot water and photovoltaic (PV).
"This year we will visit many new locations to keep the tour fresh and exciting," said Kelsey Yates, vice president of Penn State's ASES student chapter. "We're excited to showcase how solar energy is being used efficiently in our community."
Find the tour schedule highlighting the money-saving, energy-efficient features of these State College area homes online at the local ASES event website.

Chris Brown tells TMZ he's sorry for going off on Raz B yesterday on Twitter, and making crass sexual references that many say were homophobic.
Brown tells TMZ, "Yesterday was an unfortunate lack in judgment sparked by public Twitter attacks from Raz B, who was bent on getting attention. Words cannot begin to express how sorry and frustrated I am over what transpired publicly on Twitter."
Brown goes on, "I have learned over the past few years to not condone or represent acts of violence against anyone. Molestation and victims of such acts are not to be taken lightly; and for my comments I apologize -- from the bottom of my heart."
One source connected with Brown wanted to make one thing clear -- the notion that Raz B really was molested is highly questionable, given his video denial of the incident (above) -- not that it excuses Brown's comments.
Brown ends his apology with this: "I love all of my fans, gay and straight. I have friends from all walks of life and I am committed, with God's help, to continue becoming a better person."

Winton is a traditional range of oil colors made from moderately priced pigments, formulated for student and amateur artists or more accomplished painters who require large volumes of color within a moderate cost range.
Color Swatches created using heavy application/medium application/50% tint and were applied on acrylic primed canvas (7 oz) material.
organic synthetic
isoindolinone yellow
Isoindolinone Yellow is a high performance pigment of excellent brightness and an average drying time.
Isoindolinone Yellow has excellent lightfastness.
Isoindolinone Yellow is not considered toxic.
The first isoindoline pigments were patented in 1946, and commercial production of pigments in this group began in the 1960s. Several isoindoline yellow pigments are available.
copper phthalocyanine
Phthalo Blues are pure and clean primary blues with superior covering power. They have a very high tinting strength and tend to overwhelm other pigments, but if color strength can be controlled, they make predictable mixed colors. In oil form, blues are very deep and slow drying. When mixed with other colors or if chlorine is added, Phthalo Blue quickly tends towards green. When using alone, mix with some white, as Phthalo Blue can be semi-transparent and almost black on its own. It is among the most compatible of modern colors with mineral colors and is considered more reliable than Prussian Blue, while sharing the same physical and color properties. Phthalo Blue is a good color for glazing.
Phthalo Blues are completely lightfast and stable and are permanent for all paint uses. They are currently used in inks, coatings, and many plastics due to their stability and are considered a standard pigment in printing ink and the packaging industry.
Phthalo Blues have no significant hazards, although those made before 1982 contained some PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls).
Developed by chemists using the trade name Monastral Blue, the organic blue dyestuff now known as Phthalo Blue was presented as a pigment in November 1935 in London. Its discovery was accidental. The dark color was observed in a kettle where a dye was being made from a British dyestuff plant. The demand for such a pigment came from commercial printers who wanted a cyan to replace Prussian Blue.

Poplar Forest is a retreat that Thomas Jefferson designed for himself near present-day Lynchburg, Virginia, in the early 1800s as a get-away from his busy life at Monticello. The octagonal home features passive design with integrated landscape design. Thomas Jefferson employed several passive design strategies for thermal comfort and daylighting in Poplar Forest. The home's 12-inch thick exterior brick walls provide a mitigating thermal barrier to the hot summers in Virginia's Piedmont region. The octagonal floor plan of the house creates a large middle room, surrounded by exterior rooms on all sides. This central space forms the Poplar Forest dining room, also the largest space in the house. As it has no exterior walls, and no windows, it utilizes a skylight that transverses the ceiling along and east/west axis to bring daylight to the space without bringing heat, creating a cool but light retreat. Exterior walls feature windows on multiple sides to capture breezes and facilitate cross-ventilation. Window side jambs are beveled to open more to the interior so that more sunlight is bounced into the rooms. Shutters on east and west windows can be opened or closed to block the sun or help seal in heat. The south portico has a generous roof covering large windows to provide a shade porch for summer, but allow plenty of light all year with views across the sunken lawn. Jefferson built the house over a basement that is earth-bermed to the north, with the lower south porch raised on Roman arches to shade the basement room from the summer sun. Because of the earth berm, the almost constant cooler air below allowed better food and wine storage in the basement. The east "wing of offices" that connects with the main house is also earth-bermed on the north, with a roof overhang along the entire south face that provides shade in summer, protection from weather, and allows winter sun to penetrate for daylighting. The partial underground structure also helped mitigate the heat from activities such as cooking and laundry, and storage of goods. The roof of the east wing was designed so that it could be used as a terrace, too, with a unique rainwater drainage system that shunted water toward the sunken lawn that slopes away from the house and towards gardens. Soil from the basement and wing excavations was mounded at the west and east ends of the home, and then planted with trees. These trees would have provided effective shading to the home when the sun was lower in the sky in fall and spring. There is a extant stand of giant poplar trees on the north side of the home.

Poplar Forest and Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest
Poplar Forest
Thomas Jefferson and his wife, Martha, inherited the plantation known as Poplar Forest from her father in 1773. The working tobacco farm of 4,812 acres eventually provided Jefferson with a significant portion of his cash income. The plantation also offered the perfect site for his most personal architectural achievement -- a unique octagonal house set within an elaborately designed landscape. In this meticulously planned retreat he had the seclusion to pursue his passion for reading, writing, studying, and gardening.
Poplar Forest, incorporates elements from ancient, Renaissance Palladian and 18th century French architecture, as well as British and Virginian design, fuse into a harmonious whole. The 16th century architect, Andrea Palladio, greatly influenced Jefferson's plan for the revival of ancient Roman architecture and integration of landscape design into the architectural design.
The design of the house at Poplar Forest is highly idealistic in its elegant geometry. Its exterior walls form a perfect, equal-sided octagon. Inside, the space is divided into four elongated octagons surrounding a central square. The simplicity of the floor plan displays Jefferson's attraction to the precision of mathematics. The central space is a perfect cube, measuring twenty feet in all directions. With no exterior walls, it is lit from above: a sixteen-foot skylight streaks the room with exquisite light. This room supplies a soaring two-story space in what appears, from the front, to be a single-story house. Perhaps most important, the entire Poplar Forest retreat, house and landscape, radiates out from this elegant central space.
Architectural Detail
In classical architecture, a building's proportions or room's "order" determines the proportions and appearance of its columns, capitals, entablature, and decorative trim.
For the exterior of the house at Poplar Forest, the two octagonal privies, and the bedchambers inside the house, Jefferson used the Tuscan order. Tuscan columns and capitals are plain. The simplicity is meant to convey a sense of naturalness and integrity.
Adhering to the proper hierarchy, Jefferson used the Doric order in the central room—a more ornate decoration. For the room's entablature he commissioned a sculptor to replicate an ancient frieze from the Roman Baths of Diocletian, alternating two elements: human faces, carved in low relief, and triglyphs, a "grill" of three vertical bars common to Doric friezes.
Jefferson broke the rules of neoclassical architecture, adding a third element, ox skulls, to the design. He explained to the confused sculptor, "You are right…those of the Baths of Diocletian are all human faces….But in my middle room at Poplar Forest I mean to mix the faces and ox-skulls." In this private building, he felt he could follow his "fancy," which, he wrote, "I can indulge in my own case, although in a public work I feel bound to follow authority strictly."
For the parlor, Jefferson used the even more elegant Ionic order, commissioning his sculptor to replicate the entablature of the Roman temple of Fortuna Virilis. The delicate frieze consisted of small putti, or cherubs, alternating with ox skulls, connected by swags of foliage.
Among Jefferson's earliest architectural sketches, made when he was in his twenties, is a plan for a freestanding octagonal chapel. He based his design on Andrea Palladio's round Temple of Vesta, transforming it into an octagonal from using a prototype from an 18th century British book. This represents an early example of Jefferson's lifelong tendency to create something original from two or more prototypes.
The geometry of octagons appealed to Jefferson's mathematical mind. There was a practical reason too: octagonal rooms, studded with large windows, create light-filled interior spaces. The residence at Poplar Forest was Jefferson's ultimate octagon: the only fully octagonal building he ever constructed and one of the first octagonal homes in America. Even two privies are octagonal, symmetrically flanking the main house to the east and west. Jefferson designed these domed necessaries using the same rules of architectural proportion as the main house, with restorations that include chestnut shingle roof, louvered lunette windows, door, and stairs, with a child's seat installed after Jefferson's time.
French Details
Jefferson adopted many aspects of the house's interior design from buildings he had seen in France. He especially liked the light-filled interiors there, and both the skylight in the dining room and the floor-to-ceiling windows in the parlor are French touches. Jefferson filled the south wall with triple-sash windows: when the bottom two portions are raised the window opening serves as a doorway to the porch. Jefferson often read in this south-facing room, which would have been flooded with light.
In each of the large bedchambers, Jefferson's workmen installed "alcove beds," which Jefferson felt saved space. An indoor privy—or toilet—was tucked away beneath the stairwell next to Jefferson's bedchamber, an unusual convenience for the time.
One important aspect of the exterior was also influenced by French architecture. Jefferson had observed that "all of the new and good houses" in Paris were of a single story. He designed the house Poplar Forest to be built into the crown of a hill, so that his two-story house would appear to be a single story from the front.
Practical Concessions
For all his love of geometry and classicism, Jefferson yielded to practical concerns at Poplar Forest. In 1806, after construction of the house had just begun, he added two porches, two stair pavilions, and six doorways. Although they compromised his perfect octagon, it is easy to understand why Jefferson made these changes.
The front (north) porch—called a portico in the vocabulary of classical architecture—protected the entrance during bad weather and gave the house a neoclassical look. The rear (south) portico provided an ideal spot to view the lawn and countryside beyond.
Jefferson disliked staircases because he believed they wasted space. Without them, however, anyone walking between the upper and lower floors would have had to go outside. Even with the addition of internal stairs, anyone moving from the lower level to the main floor would have entered one of the bedchambers, underscoring the informality of Jefferson's retreat.
From heavy timber frame construction, to hemp sash cord custom-made in Holland, and iron hardware wrought at Colonial Williamsburg, the details and materials have been carefully and faithfully reproduced as the building is restored in a Jeffersonian era way. Details and materials, such as lumber, glass, lead, hardware, bricks, mortar, paint and finishes are carefully researched for site specific correctness and executed with accurate historical precision, even to the point of reviving a few "lost art" techniques such as column rendering and burning limestone for the production of traditional lime mortar and plaster. A conscious decision to have the restoration follow Jefferson's historical sequence of finishing the house makes the interpretive process unique among museums.
The Poplar Forest Octagon and Key Meridians
There are some theories that Thomas Jefferson designed the octagonal Poplar Forest estate to conform to Key Lines that mark other important structures in the US and world. It has been suggested by author Louis Buff Parry that Jefferson may have been a Knights Templar Strict Observance, American Rite - a designation of German Masonry that descended from Prussian Royalty – and that his key lines are designed to highlight a sort of "holy grail" of information or philosophy. Jefferson built his octagonal Axis Mundi as a small private residence using his own private funds and not as an imperial axis as his forebears had. Jefferson oriented Poplar Forest so that one of the facets of his home creates an azimuth or key line that points to several other structures he designed or built, including Monticello, the University of Virginia campus, the Barboursville Mansion, Montpelier (James Madison's home named for the Capitol of the Languedoc), and Washington D.C. Others would later add the Georgia Guidestones to this alignment as well as the towns of Madison and Monticello, Georgia. This same azimuth of Poplar Forest on the globe extends to Europe, crossing the region of Germany known as Prussia. Charlottesville, Virginia, Jefferson's hometown near Monticello, was named in 1762 for Queen Charlotte of England who was originally from Hanover, Germany. The actual structure of Monticello is located only about a hundred yards from the exact 38th parallel. Some ancient places may have been meant to mark prime meridians that were established by local rulers. Jefferson seems to have been influenced by this tradition. This fits the assumption from the book of the Holy Grail that he was a Knights Templar Strict Observance. He created his home Poplar Forest as an Axis Mundi. He created alignments of architecture that are still being added to today as evidenced by the Georgia Guidestones.

What Would George Washington Say About the 2012 Election?
That seems like a speculative topic – to try and guess what our first president under the Constitution would have to say to modern Americans.
But actually I won't speculate at all. I'll use some of his own writings to make my points (or his points). And they won't be from some of his obscure writings, gleaned from arcane, private letters the way the Supreme Court did in a 1947 decision with a private letter Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptists. That decision changed forever the way religion, specifically Christianity, is treated in the public square-and not for the better.
George Washington, the father of our country, sent out in written form his Farewell Address (September 19, 1796). In this classic piece of American political writing, he gives some warnings to his fellow Americans (and us) just as a "parting friend" might do.
He said in that message: "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness." When the founding fathers spoke of "religion," they were speaking of Christianity, in a nation which at the time was 99.8 percent Christian (Benjamin Hart, "The Wall that Protestantism Built," Policy Review, Fall 1988).
Like the other founders, Washington believed that for the Constitution to work, the people needed to be virtuous. As he himself put it in the Farewell Address, "virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government."
What was the source of virtue, according to them (even some of the unorthodox amongst them)?
Religion (on a voluntary basis)-always with the rights of conscience in place. Thanks to the framers of our nation, we are free to believe (or not believe) whatever we want in this country. Only to God, and not the state, shall we give an account.
Washington elaborated on the importance of "religion and morality" (again from his final public message): "The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connections with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked: Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice?"
In case any one doesn't get the point, he basically asks, how can morality continue without faith? It cannot, Washington warns: "And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle" [Emphasis mine].
But so many now think we're so much smarter today. In fact, in 1980, in Stone v. Graham, the US Supreme Court struck down the posting of the Ten Commandments in schools. Why? Because Little Johnny might read them and obey them.
They declared: "If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at all, it will be to induce the schoolchildren to read, meditate upon, perhaps to venerate and obey, the Commandments. However desirable this might be as a matter of private devotion, it is not a permissible state objective under the Establishment Clause."
Whatever the outcome of today's elections, in all the different races, from local dogcatcher to president, we have a lot of ground to make up.
George Washington also said that as a nation we should never expect God's blessings if we continue to defy His Word. In his First Inaugural Address, he said: "The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained." (The Ten Commandments come to mind.)
The propitious smiles seem to have turned into a frown lately. But why should God be pleased with a nation that slaughters millions of unborn babies, redefines God-ordained marriage, and is awash with immorality?
Finally, Washington did not just urge his fellow Americans to follow God's eternal laws, he urged them to follow Christ. He said that we can never hope to be a happy nation unless we imitate the Savior. After the war, but before the official treaty ending the conflict, Commander-in-Chief Washington sent a letter to the governors of the thirteen states. It was a famous letter, dated June 13, 1783, and is called the "Circular to the States." Near the end of this circular, Washington said that he prayed we will all learn to imitate the Lord. This is exactly how he worded it:
I now make it my earnest prayer…that he would most graciously be pleased to dispose us all, to do Justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility and pacific temper of mind, which were the Characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without an humble imitation of whose example in these things, we can never hope to be a happy Nation.
How far we have fallen from the vision of the father of our country who said that we would only be a happy nation if we imitate Christ. Therefore, shouldn't we as a nation ask ourselves: Are we imitating Christ? Are we a happy nation?
The answer to both of these questions is obvious. May God help us to get back on the right track.

POSTED: May 15, 2014 8:51 PM ET
NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA's board of governors unanimously approved the sale Thursday of the Milwaukee Bucks to New York investment firm executives Wesley Edens and Marc Lasry, bringing the forlorn franchise one step closer to starting a new era.
Former U.S. senator Herb Kohl reached agreement with them last month for a price tag of about $550 million after they pledged to keep the team in Milwaukee. The NBA said Thursday in a statement that the transaction is expected to close shortly.
The league's expected approval comes days before the NBA holds its draft lottery. The Bucks, who had a league-worst 15 wins, have the best odds to get the No. 1 pick next week for June's talent-rich draft.
"The Bucks and their fans will benefit greatly from their vast business experience, energy and strong commitment to Milwaukee," commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement.
Lasry and Edens committed to providing $100 million to help build a new arena. Kohl also announced he would donate $100 million for a new facility to replace the BMO Harris Bradley Center, the team's downtown home, which opened in 1988.
Edens had said he hoped to get a plan completed for a new arena in a year, and have it built in a couple of years. He thought it might take about $400 million to build a new facility, though the new owners might face a tricky task in seeking public funding if they don't get more private help.
Kohl bought the Bucks for $18 million in 1985. The Milwaukee native, whose family owned a chain of department stores, was hailed as a hometown hero.
Silver praised Kohl for his "unprecedented and historic financial gift toward the construction of a new Milwaukee arena and for his outstanding service to the league and his community over his nearly 30-year tenure."
An injury-plagued season left the Bucks a franchise-worst 15-67. They have finished above .500 only three times since 2000, though Milwaukee did make the playoffs in 2012-13. The Bucks were swept in four games by Miami in the first round.
With new owners and a 25 percent chance to pick up the No. 1 pick in the draft, the Bucks face a defining offseason. Even if it doesn't win the lottery, Milwaukee cannot fall below the fourth pick in a draft stocked with top prospects, including Duke's Jabari Parker and Kansas' Andrew Wiggins.

Lindsay Lohan Penning Tell-All, Hits Studio [PHOTO]
Now that the acting roles have dried up for her and because she can't win lawsuits against Pitbull for referencing her spectacular fall from grace in a song lyric, Lindsay Lohan is resorting to a new way to make money.
And no, it's not anything sexual. She's not destitute and she's not going that route. Instead, the actress is penning a juicy tell-all about her life.
Sources say that Li Lo will not hold anything back about her many arrests, her drug abuse, her acting career and her family – come on, you know you are dying to get the inside scoop on mom Dina and dad Michael, who are trainwrecks in their own right.
Lohan has dealt with a lot of drama since her star ascended and she was one of the hottest up and comers on the Hollywood scene before it all came crashing down, a fall that was illuminated by the paparazzi flashbulbs. It's certainly an intriguing tale.
The book started out as a series of journal entries, which Lohan authored while in rehab as sort of a therapeutic endeavor. It's not fully fleshed out yet and it's in its literary infancy, but insiders say that the oft-troubled star is ready to lay her cards face up on the table.
Keep in mind that it'll be La Lohan's version of events and as is the case with anything in life, there are always three sides to every story: hers, theirs and the truth.
TMZ reports that Linds has received several offers from publishers in the six-figure range and she met with a big time NYC literary agency last week. The meeting was filmed for her docu-series, which will air on OWN.
Li Lo isn't just trying her hand at the book world. She may be making a return to music.
She shared a photo of herself in the studio, adding the "#studiotime" and "#workhard" hashtags. Could she be working on another album? Perhaps.
Lohan did release an album when she was A-list, which was a more-than-respectable hit. It was called 'Speak' and it dropped in 2004. The follow up, 'A Little More Personal (Raw),' landed in 2005 and did not fare as well.
See the snap below.
Books! Music! More Lindsay. World, are you ready? PopCrushers? Tell us!

It may seem puzzling to union members, but with the AFL-CIO's 2013 Convention in Los Angeles only eight months away, no top officer and member of the Executive Council has announced that he or she plans to run for re-election. Don't be fooled. They are hungry for re-election.

With only nine months before the start of the AFL-CIO's 27th convention, unions are beginning to elect delegates and prepare resolutions to describe how they feel about Richard Trumka and his group of sell-serving, self-perpetuating bureaucrats, who have had a hammerlock on the organization's policies and activities.

"On his 98th birthday, professional rabble-rouser and Brooklyn Heights resident Harry Kelber announced he will run for president of the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations. No, not the local chapter of the nation's largest labor group — the activist born during the Wilson administration wants to be in charge of the entire 11-million worker organization, better known as the AFL-CIO. The Brooklyn Paper's Danielle Furfaro visited Kelber and talked about his campaign, his life, his views on labor, and the era when a pony ride cost about the same as a haircut."

Kelber to Challenge Trumka for AFL Top Spot
26 Corporate Crime Reporter 26, June 20, 2012
"Harry Kelber will challenge Richard Trumka for the presidency of the AFL-CIO at the labor union's convention September 8-12, 2013 in Los Angeles. Remember Harry Kelber? He's a labor activist and writer who runs The Labor Educator. Every week, Kelber evicerates the leaders of the AFL-CIO for not actively challenging the corrupt corporate establishment in Washington, for paying 131 of its executives more than $100,000 a year, and for censoring any criticism of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"In an interview with Corporate Crime Reporter last year [see below], Kelber said that Trumka was all talk, no action. 'Trumka makes speeches to please the membership,' Kelber told Corporate Crime Reporter last year. 'But there is no action to do anything. He comes out as an advocate of change, and he ends up without change. He had all kinds of possible opportunity for non violent action to express the discontent of American workers.' "

"Why should I listen to anything Harry Kelber says?" exclaimed a visibly indignant Richard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO.
Maybe because Kelber, 98 years young, has been honestly fighting for labor rights as a worker, union organizer, pamphleteer, author, professor and overall hairshirt of the moribund organized labor movement for 78 years–or 15 years before Trumka, the former coal miner and United Mine Workers' president, was born.

ALEXANDRIA, Va., October 10, 2011 - Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS) is deeply saddened to announce the passing of President and Publisher Nancy Michelman, who died on Friday after a year-long battle with cancer. A selfless leader with an infectious laugh and the gift of inspiring others to get together and do their best, Nancy's courageous fight was marked by her optimism and energy.
Michelman was a self-described "Jersey Girl" who began sailing at summer camp in Maine as a child, and grew up with a love of boating. In 1989, as a rising star with the American Automobile Association (AAA), BoatUS Founder Richard Schwartz was impressed with her energy and intelligence. He hired her immediately to run the BoatUS membership department, manage partner relationships and grow benefits and services.
Over her tenure BoatUS membership grew from 350,000 to a record-high 650,000 members. In addition to the President's role, Nancy became Publisher of the association's flagship publication, BoatUS Magazine, in 2008, making it more dynamic, personal, and aspirational, believing that a strong publication would keep members informed and excited about their boating, fishing, and sailing lifestyles.
"Nancy was from a cadre of professionals who built BoatUS into the organization we are so proud of today," said BoatUS Chairman and Founder Richard Schwartz. "With her it was always about generosity, passion, engagement, and loyalty - and having the most fun while you are at it. She encouraged our staff to work on common goals, and never forgot that helping members was our number-one responsibility."
Michelman's relationship with members was personal. She often picked up the phone to hear a member's point of view. This personal touch was genuine, even sharing the story of her illness in one of her editorials in BoatUS Magazine, inspiring members to live their lives and passions to the fullest. For months afterward, members shared their own stories and words of encouragement.
"As she did with colleagues, Nancy made every member feel part of something extraordinary, as though they were very special to her personally, because they were," added BoatUS CEO Bill Oakerson. "As stellar as Nancy's leadership and business results were, her greatest gift is that she opened her heart to others, and taught us through her own optimism that joy can be found all around us - in our work, friendships, and aboard our boats. Part of her enduring legacy and vision is that she put a top management team in place - in Government Affairs, in our Membership Division, and in our publications - that carries on her good work, her dedication to the needs of boaters, and her standard of excellence."
An online memoriam is located at www.BoatUS.com/nancy.
