Gas Pains
Tom grew up in Milwaukee, bartended in Wauwatosa in the '70s and moved here in 1984.
Commentary, observations and musings about the outdoors, life in general and maybe Tosa politics and personalities will be the order of the day. He savors a lively debate as much as terrific cooking.
The Race Is On
In case you missed it, Wauwatosa is gearing-up for another mayoral campaign. So far we have three announced contenders. Here's the current roll and my initial appraisals:
Jill Didier – A tad thin on resume but has experience in city government. I reside in her aldermanic district. She came out swinging with her early attack on Mayor Estness over the city's compliance with state law over the proposed taxation of high-end, independent senior housing. More on that stink later. Since Mayor Estness isn't running for reelection Didier will have define her campaign around other issues of substance.
Itchy and Scratchy
I recently recovered from a bad case of poison ivy.
I know what poison ivy looks like and I know where it lives. I avoid it like the plague.
A Gaseous Fundraiser?
A while ago there was some seditious talk over at the Tosa Town Square about a chili cook-off. It has resurfaced.
If someone can pull this-off, I'm in.
Senior Housing - A Taxing Issue?
Curious to learn more about the possibility of taxing high-end senior independent living facilities I stopped at City Hall recently.
I took the time to peruse a pile of letters and emails, measuring about an inch and a half thick, that had been received by the mayor, the assessor and members of the City Council on this subject.
Free Open House - An Introduction to Curling - Updated
Try the sport that is Sweeping the Nation.
At the Wauwatosa Curling Club - located in the Muellner Building at Hart Park.
Taxing Senior Housing - In a Holding Pattern
The possibility of property taxes being assessed on luxury, independent senior living facilities has been shifted to the back burner while the City Attorney's office and legal counsel for the senior communities lock horns.
Frankly, I'm disappointed that the public hearing to be held by the Committee of the Whole for tomorrow evening has been called-off.
Sniff, Sniff...
I stink.
Yep. That is correct. I really stink.
More on Taxing Seniors
Ha. I thought that title would grab you.
While having coffee with girlfriend this morning I mused over the attention that this topic seems to have garnered. It has occurred to me that more than once someone has postulated that the Greatest Generation has paid enough in taxes (or something to that effect) and seniors shouldn't pay any more in property taxes.
Ringneck Hunting
Had an opportunity to join a couple of my deer hunting buddies this morning at the Crawfish River Hunting Preserve.
Tomatoes Linked to Global Warming?
The rather animated discussion about global warming being held on the TTS took-off on a weird tangent this afternoon.
The subject turned to my tomatoes

Professors Wiggins, Gallagher, Hennings, Royce and Werner
Engineering science courses deal with the application of knowledge gained in the basic sciences to the solution of engineering problems, using the theories and techniques of mathematical analysis. The principles learned are later applied in ship and power plant design. Engineering drafting and laboratory skills are included in this group of courses.
The extensive use of computers in the engineering and business communities makes it essential that all Webb graduates be literate in computer use and skilled in using complex programs. Some exposure to and practice in varied computer capabilities are stressed, including scientific and engineering problem solving, word processing and computer-aided graphics.
Freshman Year
This course provides an introduction to computer programming and focuses on the development of the logical problem-solving skills that are essential in engineering. Topics covered include logical expressions, conditional statements, variable types, looping, subroutines, and functions. The ability to properly annotate and debug coding will be stressed. Student skills in the application of widely-used, commercially-available software such as Excel®, MathCad®, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA®), and Maple® are developed and exercised to facilitate their use in subsequent mathematics, science, and engineering courses. Two hours of class and one hour of laboratory per week in the first semester.
This is a course in applied vector mechanics with emphasis on static equilibrium. Topics include forces, moments, couples, equivalent force-couple systems, controls, distributed forces, and Coulomb friction. The application of the free body diagram in the analysis of static equilibrium of frames, machines, and trusses is stressed. Three hours of class per week in the second semester.
Sophomore Year
Stress-strain relationships of engineering materials are treated. Rods, shafts, beams and columns subjected to tension, compression, torsion and shear loadings are examined. Introduction of the finite element method is presented and some simple problems are solved. Mohr's Circle analysis of stress and strain is developed. Thermal effects, column buckling and limit design concepts are also treated. Three hours per week in the first semester.
This course develops the student's power of visualization. Students are introduced to fundamentals of computer-aided-drafting (CAD), and use a PC-based CAD program (AutoCad) to produce orthographic and isometric views of 3-D objects. A final project drawing is a typical midship section using CAD, incorporates skills developed in class. Two hours of computer lab per week in the first semester.
Properties of fluids, concepts of the system, control volume, work, heat, energy, entropy, the laws of thermodynamics, and reversibility are studied and applied to topics in power cycles, combustion, and psychrometry. Three hours per week in the first semester.
The motion of particles and rigid bodies is studied. Topics include: kinematics and kinetics of particles, kinetics of systems of particles, plane kinematics and kinetics of rigid bodies, and three dimensional dynamics of rigid bodies. Three hours per week in the second semester.
This course examines both real and ideal fluids. The Bernoulli Equation is developed and applied to fluid measurement. Finite control volume and differential analysis is developed and applied to fluids in motion. The velocity potential and stream functions are introduced and applied to simple planar flows. Other topics include fluid statics, kinematics, dimensional analysis and modeling, and viscous flow in pipes. Three hours per week in the second semester.
Junior Year
This course examines single and multi-degree of freedom models. Free and forced system response is developed for simplified systems and extended to topics relating to ships. Complex algebra and Fourier series are used throughout. Vibration measurement is discussed and demonstrated. Exact and approximate methods for determining mode shapes, natural frequencies, and modal analysis are included. Analysis of continuous systems is introduced. Three hours per week in the first semester.
This course introduces ideal and viscous flows related to ships. Boundary layer theory is developed in relation to lifting surfaces and hull forms. Lift and drag topics include NACA foil sections, lifting line theory, Joukowski airfoils, and Glauert's method for optimum planform. Green's functions are introduced for simplified potential theory problems. Potential theory is further developed for added mass and damping on a circular cylinder. Prediction of impact force is presented in terms of von Karman's impact theory. Forces on a column are examined using Morrison's equation. Computational Fluid Dynamics is introduced for simplified problems. Three hours per week in the second semester.

Many homeowners choose to install a deck in their backyard as an outdoor living space. Decks are extremely versatile: they can be an outdoor living room, a kitchen, a spa with hot tub or a gathering area for friends and family. There are a variety of material options for decks, and these materials all differ in the upkeep they require.
Synthetic or composite deck materials do not require finishing, which leaves homeowners without the option to change the look of the deck over time to match a new house color, new outdoor furniture, landscaping or just to give the deck a fresh look. A composite deck – like any material – will need cleaning to help control mold and remove dirt.
Decks made from wood products, however, give homeowners flexibility to match the deck to the area surrounding it. Wood species like Western Red Cedar have natural preservative oils that preserve the wood, even in extreme weather. Cedar also gives homeowners a choice to let the wood weather naturally turning a soft, silver-gray color. And if the mood strikes, homeowners can change the color of the deck by sanding and refinishing. Western Red Cedar Lumber Association has information and advice about weathering or finishing cedar decks at www.wrcla.org.
Finishing wood decks is another option, and gives homeowners just about any choice in color they want. Scott Gibson, from Professional Deck Builder Magazine has a few tips for homeowners who want to finish their wood deck.
* On a new deck that is to be stained, apply the stain to all sides of the deck boards before installation. This step helps prevent moisture penetration into the wood, which could compromise any finish.
* Make certain the deck is clean, completely dry and free from mold or mildew. A mild, oxygen bleach solution is recommended for treating mold and mildew. Do not increase the recommended strength of this solution, and it needs to be left on the deck surface for about 30 minutes to be effective.
* Use a wood brightener to prep it. "No step is skipped more than this one," Gibson says. "It's by far the easiest step to do, and it will have a dramatic effect on the final result."
* Choose a stain. Most builders and experts recommend semi-transparent stains, because they contain pigments that help block sunlight and protect the wood surface. They also last longer than transparent stains. Many products also contain water repellents, mildew-fighting properties and fungicides. Latex stains should be avoided as they usually form a film, which can flake over time.
* Transparent stains or water-repellant stains are perfect for homeowners wanting to keep the natural look. They contain a UV blocker or absorber to help reduce damage from sunlight. They are also good for newly manufactured or restored cedar decks. Homeowners should note that transparent stains don't last a long time, especially when exposed to a lot of sun.
Whether you choose to let your deck weather naturally, or finish it to the exact look to match your home, it's important to take into consideration the future maintenance and color flexibility provided by decking materials before you begin the project. And with your deck complete, in no time at all everyone in the family will be enjoying the new outdoor space, and the aura it brings to the backyard.

Christmas Tree Pillow. I got up early Thanksgiving morning before anyone else got up and went straight to my craftroom. The best quiet time of the day! I made this little pillow using scraps of fabric that I had left over {from making Halloween costumes in past years!} Another FREE-2-ME project!!! Yippeee
I made a 2" circle template from the back of a cereal box and cut out a LOT of circles from four different shades of green felt! I used felt because it's what I had on hand plus I knew the material wouldn't ravel!
The shears I'm using are called pinking scissors. I thought it would add texture and depth to the "tree" and hide any imperfection from my cutting! If you have never seen pinking scissors before, they create a zig-zag edge and they can be found in most notions department.
I cut out 2 16x16 squares of velvetish (is that a word?) material. I don't think it's actual velvet? Just something I picked up out of the remnant bin a few months back. I also cut a quick template to decide how big I wanted my tree and trunk.
I outlined the tree and trunk template with a disappearing ink pen. This pen writes in purple and will fade away in time.
Back in the day I managed a sewing store and bought this big fancy shmancy sewing machine. I thought it would be fun to use some of the features, like the eyelet stitch.
The nice thing about this stitch is that it locks in the stitch with a knot and cuts the threads when it's done. All I have to do is press the green button and away it GOES.
**You could easily do this with a back and forth running or zig-zag stitch.
Set the felt circle down on the right side of one pillow square and place the presser foot down in the center of the circle and sew.
Lift the circle that you just sewn up and lay the next circle half way over the circle you just stitched. {like in the photo above}
Mix your shades of green as you go along. I used the lightest color of green sparingly compared to the darker greens. This is just my personal preference.
I thought I would stitch the circles in rows starting at the bottom of the tree but thought it might end up looking too perfect. I opted to stitch a row of circles around the outside edge and then fill in the center.
When it's all filled in go through and clip any long threads. I had some circle that stuck out more than others so I simply gave them a trim with the pinking shears.
Time for the trunk of the tree. I thought I would have some fun and add a little texture instead of just a plain brown appliqued square tree trunk. I'm using a brown fleece material, only because it was a darker brown than what I had in felt. Cut the brown fabric twice the width that you want to end up with.
I created the trunk using a bit of a pin-tuck treatment. Fold over the material and sew on the edge of the crease. The farther you sew away from the crease the large the "pin-tuck" you will create. No need for pins or pressing, I just eyeballed the creases.
Practice and you will have it down in no time! You can see my first few I did (on the left) looked ununiformed but they got better each time. Lay the truck pattern over the best pin-tucks and cut out.
Sew the trunk on the pillow front slightly under the green circles center of the tree with a wide zig-zag stitch. Set the zig-zag length down low, so the stitches are close together but still sew in a forward motion. ****If you turn you dial down to zero it will stay in one place, that's not what we want.
I cut out a simple pattern of a bird and appliqued it to the top of the tree just like the tree trunk.
Sew up the pillow by laying the 2 16x16 squares right sides together and sewing around all the sides but leaving a small opening on one side, turn right side out, stuff the pillow, and hand stitch the opening close.
To get nice crisp corners, cut the material off at the corners as close to the thread on an angle (see photo above) without cutting the threads.
Admire. Admire. Admire.
Close up of the satin applique stitch and pin-tuck detail.
Is this my partridge in pear tree?
Christmas Tree Pillow
I got to thinkin'…..
Hey all you non~sewers
you could probably make this pillow by adhering the circles with fabric glue onto a solid readymade pillow!

Crouzon syndrome is a genetic disorder. It results in abnormal joining of the bones in the skull and face.
Infants have sutures between the bones in the face and skull. As an infant's brain grows, these sutures allow the skull to expand. These sutures fuse together when we are adults and our skulls and brains are done growing.
In Crouzon syndrome, the bones in the skull and face fuse too early. The skull is then forced to grow in the direction of the remaining open sutures. This causes an abnormally shaped head, face, and teeth.
Crouzon syndrome is caused by a defect in a specific gene. It is not clear what causes this gene to mutate. Some may be inherited from parents' genes.
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your child's risk of Crouzon syndrome include having:
- Parents with the disorder
- Parents who do not have the disorder, but who carry the gene that causes the disorder.
- Fathers at an older age at the time of conception
The main signs and symptoms of Crouzon syndrome include:
- Flattened top and back of head
- Flattened forehead and temples
- Mid-face that is small and located further back in the face than normal
- Beaked-like nose
- Compression of nasal passages, often causing reduced airflow through the nose
- Large, protruding lower jaw
- Misalignment of teeth
- High-arched, narrow palate, or cleft palate
Other symptoms and complications that can result from Crouzon syndrome include:
- Problems with development of inner ear and hearing loss
- Meniere's disease—dizziness, vertigo, or ringing in the ears
- Problems with the eyes, including vision problems, crossed eyes, or involuntary eye movement
- Curvature of the spine
- Headaches
- Acanthosis nigricans—small, dark, velvety patches of skin
- Hydrocephalus—build up of fluid in the skull
A doctor can usually diagnose Crouzon syndrome based on physical signs and symptoms.
The doctor may need images of the skull, spine, or hands. These can be taken with:
Your doctor may also do genetic testing to confirm the diagnosis.
There is no cure for Crouzon syndrome. Currently, many of the symptoms can be treated with surgery.
Treatment may include:
There are a number of surgeries used to treat the symptoms of Crouzon syndrome. These include:
- Craniectomy—removal and replacement of portions of the skull. Done as early as possible after birth to prevent damage to the brain. It will also help to maintain a skull shape that is as normal as possible.
- Surgery to treat protrusion of one or both eyeballs—adjustments are made to the bones surrounding the eye sockets
- Surgery to treat protruding lower jaw—to normalize the appearance of the jaw
- Surgery to repair a cleft palate
Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment can help correct the alignment of teeth. It may include braces.
Eye and Ear Treatment
Specialist should monitor infants and children with Crouzon syndrome. These specialists can check for eye and ear problems and treat as necessary.
Supportive Treatment
Children with a mental deficiency or intellectual disability may need special education help.
There is no known way to prevent Crouzon syndrome. If you have Crouzon syndrome or have a family history of the disorder, you can talk to a genetic counselor when deciding to have children.

"Every programmer is developing in [a] group of programmers. The smallest group is yourself and yourself a couple of weeks later." - Michael Suodenjoki
Some projects I am currently working on:
- Octo - Automated Build System built on top of Node.JS
- SKiD - Structurally Kinetic Development is a web-based IDE that allows the user to visualize edit code using graphs, visually mapping calls between methods in real time (as you're typing code). SKiD provides a platform on which developers and teams can tailor their IDE to their workflow for free and in the cloud. SKiD is completely open source - both front and back end.
- Rippl - A Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) using a flow-chart approach rather than a linear workflow (and much more).
- Mushine - 2.5D (3D but seemingly on 2 dimensions) game where you 'program' robots to mine for you. The depth is infinite, and the game is completely multiplayer.
- 8B - Source MP mod with mechanized teams. Players hone their skills freely; there are no 'levels', but instead traits that are leveled abstractly (without numbers). These traits, in turn, form classes.
- JLow - Java debugger that hooks into specific code at various levels of a program and allows for runtime filtering of values as well as basic profiling.
- CodeHub - A Natoga module (essentially a sub-domain) that features real time recordings of code + audio in the form of tutorials for several languages. Written in Haxe and Coffee-Script.
- JeTT.FM (abandoned) - Java API implementation for the Turntable.FM system

The countries affected by the 2004 Asian tsunami contain the most diverse and extensive coral reefs and mangroves of the Indian Ocean, and some of the richest in the world. Not only are these ecosystems among the most threatened in the world, they also provide numerous essential ecosystem services.
It is thus not surprising that reefs and mangroves received widespread attention after the tsunami, with three principal questions posed: Are the tsunami's impacts on reefs and mangroves a further threat to their future survival? Did reefs and mangroves play a role in shoreline protection and reduce structural damage and human mortality? How could reconstruction efforts include actions to maintain these ecosystems and reduce further threats to them?Resource Type: Journal Papers
Sustainability requires living within the regenerative capacity of the biosphere. In an attempt to measure the extent to which humanity satisfies this requirement, we use existing data to translate human demand on the environment into the area required for the production of food and other goods, together with the absorption of wastes. Our accounts indicate that human demand may well have exceeded the biosphere's regenerative capacity since the 1980s. According to this preliminary and exploratory assessment, humanity's load corresponded to 70% of the capacity of the global biosphere in 1961, and grew to 120% in 1999.Resource Type: Journal Papers
This study demonstrates the utility of carbon isotope discrimination in describing genetic adaptation to arid environments, although it is probably most useful in detecting differentiation when the strategy of the species under investigation is to increase water use efficiency, rather than drought-avoidance. The results suggest that populations on the eastern and western sides of the Andes should be treated as separate management units for the purposes of conserving the genetic resource of this species.Resource Type: Journal Papers
A reduction in forest area should result in a reduction of its number of species and, moreover, do so in a characteristic way according to the familiar species-area relationship. Brooks, Pimm & Collar (1997) applied this formula to the losses in forest area in the Philippines and Indonesia. Independently derived totals of the number of endemic bird species that are threatened with extinction broadly agree with these predicted losses. In some cases, however, predicted losses overestimate or underestimate the actual numbers of threatened species.Resource Type: Journal Papers
Marine conservation lags behind terrestrial in the establishment of protected areas. This was recognized by the Convention on Biological Diversity, whose members, in 2004, agreed to establish "comprehensive, effectively managed, and ecologically representative" systems of marine protected areas (MPAs) by 2012. Halfway toward this target date, we look at the coverage of the world's 5045 MPAs from a biogeographic perspective.Resource Type: Journal Papers
Small local hunting communities in Siberia are very distant from any governmental control. Hunted waterbird species, including globally and regionally threatened species, rely for their well-being on the self regulation of remote hunting communities. Interviewed hunters showed a profound knowledge of Baikal Teal, its population status, and the causes of their past decline. Whether the knowledge is shared by other communities in the region and beyond in Northern Siberia needs verification.
Empowered l
Current global marine protection targets aim to protect 10–30% of marine habitats within the next 3–5 years. However, these targets were adopted without prior assessment of their achievability. Moreover, ability to monitor progress towards such targets has been constrained by a lack of robust data on marine protected areas. Here we present the results of the first explicitly marine-focused, global assessment of protected areas in relation to global marine protection targets.Resource Type: Journal Papers
The effects of Pleistocene glaciations on the genetic characteristics of the most austral conifer in the world, Pilgerodendron uviferum, were analysed with specific reference to the hypothesis that the species persisted locally in ice-free areas in temperate South America.
Results indicated that Pilgerodendron populations are highly monomorphic, probably reflecting past population bottlenecks and reduced gene flow. Southernmost populations tend to be the least genetically variable and were therefore probably more affected by glacial activity than northern ones. Populations located outside ice limits seem to have been isolated during the glacial period. The presence of centres of genetic diversity, together with the lack of a significant correlation between genetic and geographical distances and the absence of geographical patterns of allelic frequencies at most analysed alleles, may indicate that Pilgerodendron did not advance southward after the last glaciation from a unique northern refugium, but spread from several surviving populations in ice-free areas in Patagonia instead.Resource Type: Journal Papers

"Would purchase again!"
By Rachael Stubblefield
Comments: Purchased 3 tags as gifts, key chain has larger ring, very durable and easy to use. Removed the plastic baseball charm b/c it looks cheap compared to actual dog tag. Engraving is centered and easy to read (I used all 4 lines for a poem). Dog tag is shiny and leaves finger prints which is no issue for me. Shipped in appropriate amount of time. Will do business again
"Great keychains"
By Evan L.
Comments: I am a principal at my school and ordered one of each of the different sport key chains for the the coaches in my school. I was able to add our school logo, so they looked really sharp and the coaches thought they were great.

Sail-World.com : NS14 Australian Championship - NSW sailors score four wins in row
NS14 Australian Championship - NSW sailors score four wins in row
'NS14 Australian championship' Rob Cruse
The NS14 Australian Championship has so far been dominated by New South Wales sailors Rohan Nosworthy and Sophie Holt, who recorded four consecutive wins over two days of intense sailing competition on the Tamar River at Beauty Point
Sailing a borrowed boat, they have outsailed the opposition in the 23 boat fleet from Tasmania, NSW, South Australia and the ACT, handing the varying breeze with great skill.
Conducted by the Port Dalrymple Yacht Club as part of its 60th season, race officers have managed to conduct all scheduled races so far, despite some tricky wind conditions on Saturday.
Day one (Saturday) saw shifty westerly winds, with more stable winds from the same direction on Sunday. The first race yesterday was sailed in 14 knots, the section in 9 knots.
NSW competitors are heading the scoreboard after four races, with Nosworthy and Holt on 4 points, followed by Bryce Edwards and Amanda Stern on 8 points from four seconds.
NS14 Australian championship - Rob Cruse
Third overall are Christian Calwell and Aaron Gardner on 22 points with a 3-7-4-8 score.
Best placed of the Tasmanians are sister and brother Katherine and Matthew Davis from Hobart who are in fourth place overall on 23 points, with placings so far of 7-8-5-3. Katherine is the current Australian junior and female champion skipper in the NS14 class.
Racing continues today and tomorrow, with a lay day on 1 January.

Product of the Week: Marine Film

The jury is back: Storms deeper and stronger from world pollution
Are storms getting worse, or is it just my imagination? No, for the first time, scientists have proved it, with the all-too-graphic statement, 'The aerosols formed by human activities from fast-growing Asian economies do impact storm formation and global air circulation downstream. They tend to make storms deeper and stronger and more intense, and these storms also have more precipitation.'

Yacht of the Week: Moody 41
Des Ryan
As cruising boats as well as racing yachts get faster, glitzier and, above all, longer, there are still those of us who want the yacht we sail to be elegant rather than glitzy, fast enough but not to the exclusion of comfort, and a size that is 'just right' for short-handed sailing rather than as long as you can afford. Enter the Moody 41, our yacht of the week.
