Countermeasures for Performance Deficits from Sleep Loss and Workload in Space Flight
Principal Investigator: David F. Dinges, Ph.D.
In order to be able to carry out mission-critical tasks at any time during a mission, astronauts must maintain a high level of performance in the face of demanding workloads and work-rest schedules that result in chronic sleep restriction. This research will use a laboratory-based study to acquire critically-needed information on the effects on performance of high cognitive workload and sleep restriction. We will test the hypothesis that as sleep restriction accumulates, it will potentiate the performance-impairing effects of higher cognitive workload. Another key goal of the study is to provide astronauts with an objective way to identify performance changes and the need for countermeasures for fatigue from sleep restriction and high workload. To this end, the project will complete validation of the sensitivity of the 3-minute PVT SelfTest to high workload and sleep restriction. PVT SelfTest feedback interfaces will also be evaluated, and the task will be tested in analog operations (e.g., NEEMO) to establish its technical feasibility. Tertiary goals of the project include identification of biobehavioral predictors of differential vulnerability to the cognitive effects of sleep restriction and high workload, and development of individualized biomathematical models that predict performance on the PVT SelfTest during high workload.
Optical Computer Recognition of Stress, Affect and Fatigue during Performance in Space Flight
Principal Investigator: David F. Dinges, Ph.D.
Astronauts must maintain high-level performance while experiencing demanding workload and work schedules, extreme environmental risks, and psychosocial stressors in space (e.g., isolation, confinement). Stress, negative emotions and fatigue can jeopardize their cognitive performance and neurobehavioral status. This research will deliver an objective, unobtrusive,
computational model-based tracker of the human face that validly and reliably identifies when astronauts are experiencing stress, emotion and fatigue at levels that compromise performance in space. This optical computer recognition (OCR) system will provide feedback to them for autonomous selection of countermeasures for stress, depression and fatigue. The project will be accomplished through collaborative efforts of Dr. David Dinges (Unit for Experimental Psychiatry) at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, and Dr. Dimitris Metaxas (Computational Biomedicine Imaging and Modeling Center) at Rutgers University.
The project has four specific aims: (1) Create an OCR system capable of monitoring facial displays of specific emotions (i.e. angry, happy and sad). (2) Improve our current OCR system's ability to detect facial expressions of high versus low performance-induced stress. (3) Develop OCR algorithms to identify fatigue due to sleep loss based on slow eyelid closures (PERCLOS). (4) Test the technical feasibility of data acquisition and reliability of the advanced OCR system in spaceflight analogs that contain neurobehavioral stressors relevant to spaceflight (e.g., NEEMO).
PVT SelfTest on ISS
Principal Investigator: David F. Dinges, Ph.D.
This project will deploy a specially developed, zero upmass, algorithmically optimized, brief (3-minute) version of the well-validated Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT), referred to as the "PVT SelfTest," on the International Space Station (ISS), to provide astronauts with objective feedback on performance changes in vigilant attention, psychomotor speed, lapses of attention, and impulsivity during ISS Increments 20 to 25 (N=24 astronauts). The overarching goal of the project is to establish the extent to which the PVT SelfTest can aid astronauts to objectively identify when their performance capability is degraded by various fatigue-related conditions that can occur as a result of ISS operations and time in space (e.g., acute and chronic sleep restriction, slam shifts, extravehicular activity (EVA), and residual sedation from sleep medications). Thus, the project addresses a number of high-priority NASA Behavioral Health and Performance (BHP) research gaps including (1) identification of the best measure for assessing decrements in cognitive function due to fatigue and other aspects of spaceflight; (2) determination of an individual astronaut's vulnerability to sleep loss; (3) establishment of cognition decline or change during long-duration missions (LDM); and (4) facilitation of ways for crewmembers and ground support to detect and compensate for decreased cognitive readiness to perform in space.
The project builds on our previous NASA-funded work. Preliminary validation studies of the PVT SelfTest in astronauts engaged in NASA Extreme Environment mission (NEEMO) missions 9, 12, and 13 indicated that the 3-minute test was acceptable to astronauts, and provided unique astronaut norms on the test. We have used the data from astronauts engaged in NEEMO missions, and related data on the PVT SelfTest from extensive laboratory validation studies, to optimize the algorithm for astronaut PVT SelfTest performance, and to complete a feedback interface that displays their performance relative to astronaut norms.
The PVT SelfTest software will be deployed in a computer in the ISS Human Research Facility (HRF) throughout each of six ISS missions on N=24 astronauts. The N=4 U.S. astronauts on each of six ISS increments (20-25) will complete the PVT SelfTest (and a few pre- and post-test questions about operations relevant to fatigue) for a total time of 6 minutes, once every 4 days throughout each 180-day ISS mission. Each astronaut will serve as their own control, and data will be aggregated over time for comparisons of PVT SelfTest performance relative to the presence versus absence of sleep loss and circadian disruption (e.g., slam shifts), of various work intensity conditions (e.g., EVA), of sleep medication use, and of time in mission. Astronauts will be asked to indicate the extent to which their PVT SelfTest performance feedback (via a graphical interface) was useful for assessing their performance capability and countermeasure needs. Thus the project will help astronauts objectively identify and mitigate fatigue-related performance deficits during space operations.
Objective Monitoring of Crew Neurobehavioral Functions in Mars-520
Principal Investigator: David F. Dinges, Ph.D.
This project will evaluate the extent to which two novel computer-based technologies-optical computer recognition (OCR) of facial expressions and the 3-minute PVT Self Test-both of which are well along in development and validation for NSBRI and NASA, can be used to track stress, fatigue and negative affect during the Russian Mars 520-day simulated space flight. They will be deployed in the 520-day study on notebook computers supplied to each of the 6 volunteer crewmembers. Using a specially-programmed and calibrated notebook computer, 10-minute neurobehavioral assessments that include OCR video acquisition and the PVT Self Test, as well as a number of brief valid subjective assessments of stress, fatigue, mood states, depression, and sleep-wake, caffeine, etc, will be obtained twice a day (early AM and late PM) every 7th day of the mission, as well as on the morning after a night shift. The total crewmember time requirement for our assessments is no more than 20 minutes per week throughout the mission, which is designed to optimize data validity and crew adherence to assessments, while minimizing crew burden to ensure they have time to accomplish the extensive workload of the full-scale mission simulation. The 1-in-7-days data acquisition rate will permit a sampling rate across the mission that is needed to measure the sensitivity of the OCR and PVT Self Test technologies to the effects of work shift, sleep loss, critical incidents and time in mission.
The project procedures and outcome measures are based on lessons we learned from making more extensive measurements in the Russian 105-day pilot study in the same facility. The revised measures for the Mars 520-day study will require 26.7 hours per crewmember for the entire 520-day mission, which only 1/10th of the time required of crewmembers in the 105-day pilot study, and only 0.21% of the total in mission time in the 520-day study. Crewmembers will serve as their own controls in a longitudinal design (repeated measures) in which key variables (e.g., time in mission, sleep loss from 24-hour shift every 6 days, critical incidents) will be tracked to determine the extent to which OCR and PVT Self Test technologies co-vary within each crewmember as a function of these key variables. The output from these novel technologies will also be compared across the mission to participants' self-report data on stress, fatigue, mood, depression, and sleep (which will also be tracked using wrist Actiwatches).
Individualized Real-Time Neurocognitive Assessment Toolkit for Spaceflight Fatigue
Principal Investigator: Mathias Basner, M.D., M.Sc.
This project will deliver a comprehensive, software-based, neurocognitive toolkit. By building on state-of-the-art neuropsychological test development, the toolkit will permit evaluation of a full range of cognitive functions using brief (1-5 min), validated procedures. The tests include—but go beyond—what is currently measured by WinSCAT and the Reaction Self Test on ISS. Importantly, the toolkit will permit rapid assessment of performance in cognitive, social-emotional and sensorimotor domains. Real-time performance assessment algorithms will be individualized to each astronaut's norm, and adjusted for learning using a data modeling approach, in order to optimize individual and team performance relative to the effects of fatigue and related cognitive impacts. The toolkit will facilitate identification of underlying neural mechanisms affected when cognitive deficits are identified, by using tests selected on the basis of published fMRI studies that identify the specific brain regions subserved by each test. Toolkit development will progress from laboratory, to space analog (NEEMO), to ISS. The resulting comprehensive, neuroscience-validated, cognitive test battery for real-time evaluation of astronauts in space will be an essential detection technology for effective fatigue countermeasure management of astronaut performance in space. The link to neuroscience will yield directions for mechanisms of cause and potential interventions.

Monochrome me: Oxo Tower Restaurant London South Bank
26th January 2014
One of my favourites places to lunch in style in London is the Oxo Tower Restaurant on London's South Bank. A favorite for on-location filming (Natalie Portman re-discovers Thor here in "The Dark World") the restaurant is modern and minimal with wonderful views across the Thames from its 8th floor position.
Their cocktail list is a superb range of old and new: try the 'Room with a View' ~ a decadent mix of Sipsmith London dry gin, kirsch eau de vie, chocolate bitters & cherry sugar syrup charged with OXO brut champagne. My husband stuck to his favourite 'Manhattan' (you can take the man out of America but…) and I the champagne, though it was a close call between that and the 'Mad Hatter' ~ Chase Marmalade vodka, Kamm & Sons ginseng spirit built with cassis, fresh lemon juice & honey with a dash of 1901 Absinthe. (I deemed the green fairy too much in light of the long day of exploring we had ahead of us…)
I like the restaurant because for all the chic-ness of the design, the attention to detail in the menu description and food presentation, the extensive wine list and the spectacular views, the service is relaxed and food is very tasty. There is a set lunch menu – my main course of salmon raviolo, leeks, samphire, herbs and champagne sauce was the highlight. If you find yourself on London's South Bank and in need of rest and sustenance, do try the Oxo Tower.

Two brothers accused of running a suburban burglary ring are now facing federal gun charges.
Kevin and Jeffrey Zimmerman of Cheektowaga were charged Friday with felony possession of firearms, according to Frank J. Christiano, resident agent in charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Christiano said the Zimmermans were in state custody as a result of their arrest last month in connection with the burglaries, and are now facing gun possession charges because of new information uncovered as part of a joint investigation by the ATF and several local police departments.
Police say the Zimmermans and a third man, Alfred Tatman of Cheektowaga, are suspected in about three dozen burglaries in Amherst, Clarence, Cheektowaga and several other towns across Erie County.
Investigators believe the three men stole money to support their heroin addictions.

The Town of Grand Island has sued Waste Management of New York, the refuse disposal company that used to pick up garbage for the town's residents.
The town, citing a breach of contract, wants $2.4 million in damages.
The dispute between the town and the company revolves around whether the town could renew its garbage collection contract with the company in 2007, according to the State Supreme Court lawsuit.
The town sent an email to Waste Management on Jan. 2, 2007, confirming the town wished to renew the contract. Later that day, the company informed the town the contract had expired and had not been renewed, according to the lawsuit.
"That [renewal] clause was in the contract, and we never got any indication from them that they were not interested in the next renewal," said Town Supervisor Mary Cooke, who served on the Town Board at the time. "We were taken by surprise."
Three days later, the town contracted with Allied Waste Services "in an effort to avoid a public health emergency," according to the town's lawsuit.
"Allied Waste came in and helped us," Cooke said. "It was a scramble to get everything done and get garbage trucks back on the street."
But the new contract cost more.
The $2.4 million is the difference between the new hauler's price and what the town said it contracted to pay Waste Management under the disputed contract for the next four years, according to the lawsuit.
This year, the town is paying Allied Waste Services $1.3 million to serve 7,122 single-family customers in Grand Island. A single-family residence pays $185 for the service.
Waste Management has not yet answered the town's lawsuit, said Daniel A. Spitzer, an attorney for the town.
A Waste Management spokeswoman declined to comment on the pending litigation.
In 2007, the town spent money from a contingency fund to hire Allied Waste Services.
If the town prevails in the lawsuit and collects the $2.4 million, Cooke said, "it would allow us to recover some of the money it took to pay for the garbage pickup in an emergency manner."
The town entered into the disputed contract with Republic Services in 2004 for townwide garbage pickup for 2005 and 2006. Waste Management acquired the contract from Republic in 2005.
The town said the contract included a clause that gave the town the option to renew the contract for the same terms for two successive two-year periods, according to the lawsuit.
"Almost immediately upon assuming the contract, Waste Management began objecting to terms in the contract and failing to abide by service provisions of the contract," according to the lawsuit.
For almost two years, Waste Management breached other parts of the contract as well, including beginning service before 7 a.m., damaging residents' property, littering on residents' property and refusing to take more than 10 items of garbage per home per week, as called for under certain conditions, according to the lawsuit.

USA Today - After finishing fifth at US Nats the past three seasons and just about quitting the sport last year, Gao is having the best season of her career while going to Harvard full time.
USA Today - After finishing fifth at US Nats the past three seasons and just about quitting the sport last year, Gao is having the best season of her career while going to Harvard full time.
This just knocks me out. The girl must be made of iron. Even the Hughes girls, Yale and Harvard respectively, waited until after they skated at the Olympics to go to college.
Good luck Christina! You are a Supergirl!
How interesting that Harvard offers a course in "Chinese for Heritage Students." I wonder if her family spoke Chinese at home or if they deliberately wanted their children to become Americanized as quickly as possible.
(Also, Christina must be some kind of superhuman to go to Harvard full-time AND skate full-time. Either that, or she's immensely disciplined. I don't hope that she does this in the upcoming Olympic season though, but it's up to her to decide!)
For their "Harvard Chinese Bx Final Project," Gao and some classmates produced (and starred in) a fun video (7:44 in length; posted Dec 11, 2012):
Woven into the storyline are a brief reference to Gao's skating and a few seconds of footage of her performing at Skate America.
Harvard's Chinese Bx course ("Elementary Chinese for Advanced Beginners") is "for students with significant listening and speaking background."
Having been (long ago) an "other student taking two semesters of second year Chinese," I can pretty much guarantee that none of us could converse as well as these students.
What is the Chinese for "yeah, yeah" as featured in the first song?
Did they write the second song themselves? Music. too?
When I studied Chinese in college in the 1960s, that was at the height of the cold war. "Communist China" (bad) and "Nationalist China" (good) were hot news items. In fact, my instructor was an American scholar who had been caught up in the revolution in 1948 and placed under house arrest for a number of years. When he was finally allowed the leave the country, he got in trouble with the U.S. government because he refused to say that his Communist captors had tortured him. (In fact, he was well treated and said that frankly the Chinese authorities were glad to be rid of the responsibility of keeping him there.)
Anyway, our text books were written in Taiwan. The first sentence we had to translate was, "When we return to the mainland, everything will be in harmony."
Good for her, but thats exactly why she wouldn't be able to become a champion. You can't do both.
Totally off topic, but I'm no good at resisting history-geek temptation: I remember when things started to open up between China and the West, and an Italian company, I think RAI, did a TV series on Marco Polo. For the first time in years, it was possible to have mainland Chinese actors take part. Kublai Khan was played by Ying Ruo-cheng, a marvelous actor who had learned English as a young man before Mao came into power. He appeared on some American talk shows to promote the TV series, and he was so charming. He was later very influential in international films and theatrical productions, in English and Chinese. He was China's first Willy Loman when Arthur Miller was invited over to mount a production of Death of a Salesman.

KSU-SPSU merger will create a powerhouse
KSU President Dr. Dan Papp almost got it right during his State of the University address Wednesday when he described what will result from the merger of Kennesaw State University and Southern Polytechnic State University.
"The consolidation of these two fine universities will create an educational and economic powerhouse for the state of Georgia, and for that matter, the nation," he said.
That's true as far as it goes. But Papp would have been more accurate had he said, "The consolidation of these two powerhouse universities will create an educational and economic juggernaut for the state of Georgia, and, for that matter, the nation."
That is, KSU and SPSU are already powerhouse insitutions of higher learning, and have been for quite some time.
Papp's challenge, and that of those at SPSU, is to find a logical way to bring the two together in ways that enhance what they offer, and with the least possible further stress. Students and faculty at the two — especially those at SPSU — were caught off guard by the state Board of Regents' merger decision last fall. But the focus in recent months has shifted toward how best to weave the two together.
"Without minimizing the budgetary challenges we face, and without minimizing the angst that consolidation has created, I believe that the state of Kennesaw State is excellent," Papp said.
Papp says the SPSU campus will not be a subordinate satellite of KSU's. Rather, there will be two core campuses, he said. The SPSU campus will be called "the Marietta campus" and will be home to at least three of the combined schools' colleges: the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology, the College of Architecture and Construction Management and the College of Computing and Software Engineering.
Meanwhile, several major construction projects are under way at KSU, including a $39 million recreation center, a $22 million expansion of the college of education and an $18 million bridge over Interstate 75 between Frey Road and Busbee Drive. It should go far toward alleviating the traffic around the KSU campus. In addition, KSU recently bought the BrandsMart building for use by its new marching band, which will play at halftime of the games played by its new football team. The BrandsMart building, by the way, will have space for 722 badly needed parking places.
Papp's speech was a reminder KSU and SPSU are centers of educational and economic dynamism, and that both of those trademarks are likely only to accelerate.

All hail King James!
LeBron James is Sports Illustrated's 2012 Sportsman of the Year.
"He was the most dominant athlete this year – MVP of the NBA regular season, MVP of the NBA playoffs, led the Heat to the NBA championship and Team USA to the gold medal in London," Paul Fichtenbaum, Editor of Time Inc.'s Sports Group tells PEOPLE.
At just 27, the eight-time NBA All-Star and former all-time leading scorer of the Cleveland Cavaliers joins athletes including his teammate Dwayne Wade, Brett Favre, Michael Phelps, Derek Jeter and Drew Brees.
"The intangibles [James] brought to the court were significant in leading his teams to victory. He was a selfless player, doing whatever it took to will the Heat and Team USA, making all of his teammates better," Fichtenbaum says.
But it was more than his athleticism that led to James being honored. The basketball player – who is dad to LeBron Jr., 8, and Bryce, 5, with finacée Savannah Brinson – established a program to benefit children in Akron, Ohio.
Fichtenbaum says: "The program he built and developed in [the] Akron school district for young kids had a profound effect on children who ordinarily might fall through the cracks of an educational system," he says. "He didn't just lend his name to a cause, he was directly involved."

But you can see how easy it will be for legislators to start out with a flat tax and then do carve-outs and breaks, in some cases because they are beholden to donors and in other cases simply because they believe certain things should be promoted (such as charitable donations, or --gasp!-- investing in industry).

Divide the amount of tax you paid last year by your income last year.(2) You just hate the fact that those fat cats are taxed at just 15%. You do understand, don't you, that those are capital gains, which the government has for a very long time should be taxed at a lower rate in order to encourage investment. Tell you what: you make a crapload of money at your regular job, then after paying regular income tax you take the net proceeds and buy a crapload of stock. Wait a year, then quit your regular job and sell a little stock at a time. Guess what? You too will be paying just 15%!

We're in Charlottesville, VA
Miracles can take place right in your hands, with very little skill necessary!
Imagine borrowing ordinary coins and performing impossibilities with them- a magician's dream! Dozens of effects are possible, including a very easy version of the classic Coins Thru Table effect, as well as vanishes, transpositions and penetrations.
This precision-made U.S. quarter size coin will fit over any U.S. quarter- in fact, it is made from a real U.S. quarter. And unlike the cheaper economy versions sold elsewhere, only the edge of the coin is stretched, so there is no distortion on the face of the coin.
BONUS! This coin comes with instructions for a vanishing coin effect!
Difference between a "shim shell" and an "expanded shell": The shim shell is the exact same size as a quarter, but is only a shell, so you can hide other smaller coins underneath it. The shim is also able to stick to a magnet. The expanded shell is a shell that is slightly larger than a quarter, and is made to fit over the quarter (thus, for example, making it look like you have two coins in your hand, and when the shell fits over the quarter, now you only have one).
Though we usually have both "heads" and "tails" IN STOCK, our current inventory may be limited to only "heads" or only "tails". If "heads" are IN STOCK, that is what we prefer to ship unless you specify that you want "tails". If choice is a concern, please contact us to inquire about specific availability. Also, dates are limited to the stock at hand. And the back design (state design or eagle design) is limited to the stock we have on hand.
You supply an ordinary U.S. quarter coin.Expanded Coin Shell is made from a real U.S. quarter.The easy to follow instructions include the routine for a Vanishing Coin effect.
Is it illegal to use real US coins to make magic tricks? According to the U.S. Treasury F.A.Q., the answer is- No. It is only illegal to alter a US coin with the intention of spending it as if it were a coin of a different value.From the official U.S. Treasury website: "Section 331 of Title 18 of the United States code provides criminal penalties for anyone who 'fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the Mints of the United States.' This statute means that you may be violating the law if you change the appearance of the coin and fraudulently represent it [in a monetary transaction in trade for goods or services] to be other than the altered coin that it is. As a matter of policy, the U.S. Mint does not promote coloring, plating or altering U.S. coinage: however, there are no sanctions against such activity absent fraudulent intent."

The Bachelor's first solo-date curse strikes again.
After a group date in the Canadian Rockies, Sean Lowe didn't even wait until the rose ceremony to send this season's victim, Sarah Herron, 26, packing.
The Los Angeles ad executive assured reporters that, despite a flood of tears, she harbors no ill will toward Lowe and is still ready to find her soulmate.
Did you have any inkling that week would be the end of your journey?
I didn't expect to go home. I was caught off guard. I had every intention of taking him home to Colorado and introducing him to my family. However, the week before in Montana, Sean said that he had taken a step back with a few girls. There was a part of me deep down that worried I might be one.
Did showing baby photos and talking families scare him off?
I don't think it would have changed Sean's mind whether I showed him the photos on night one or in the fantasy suite. He knew how he felt about me and the others. The photos probably made him realize he needed to be honest sooner rather than later.
You two seemed to spark on the first date.
Getting the first one-on-one date – as magical as it was – was a curse. We had an amazing connection right off the bat and then I had to sit back and wait for him to develop relationships with the other women ... It became more and more difficult to sustain a connection. Feelings fizzle and it was very sad and confusing.
You took it so hard. Were you just embarrassed or had you fallen in love?
I had very strong feelings for Sean. It's human nature to feel embarrassed when you're dumped on television, [when you] let yourself be as vulnerable as I did and when you put it all out there and somebody didn't want to take it in.
You also said you'd heard the same breakup line before. Do you still feel like that?
Same story, different dude. It saddens me how many times I begin to date a guy and a few weeks in I get the same story: "You're great, funny, sweet but there isn't a connection." Or: "I'm not right for you. You deserve someone better." I have been told that more times than I can count.
Hard feelings?
I'm not mad at Sean. I respect that he didn't string me along. We all know he is looking for his wife and can't blame him for not feeling it with me. I'm confused why none of the guys in my life have ever felt, "I am that guy that deserves you." When is that guy going to come along?
Who is best for Sean?
I'm starting to see the chemistry build between Sean and Catherine. She was a bit of a dark horse. She's a down-to-earth, real girl so it warms my heart to see the undeniable special connection between them. I always saw his connection with Lesley. Lindsay is a tiny ball of fun. AshLee has the biggest heart, but she's not a goofball like I think Sean is looking for. Desiree is spunky and very real.
So not Tierra?
No. I don't see them being much of a match at all. I think he's probably very surprised watching [the show] because I don't think he saw what we did.
Do you regret signing up?
Never, ever for one moment. The show gets poked fun at for using words like "journey," but, truly, it's a life-changing journey. It was very cathartic and self-actualizing. I learned so much about myself and what I am looking for. The process helped me become who I am today.
Would you be the Bachelorette if asked?
I would seriously consider it. The show was an incredible outlet for self-discovery, but I don't want to sit around talking about my arm forever. I don't know if I could do a whole season of that. But big picture, I'm still single and still want to find love and a husband.

Heavy rain Upcountry on Thursday washed away a cottage, stranded cars in rising water, prompted evacuations of flood-prone areas, flooded businesses and shut down multiple roads, public safety and county officials reported Thursday evening.
Police and fire officials said that there were no reported serious injuries in the incidents, which began as rain fell heavily Upcountry, especially in Olinda, Makawao, Pukalani and out toward Nahiku on Thursday afternoon and into early evening.
At Kaluanui, fire officials said a cottage was ripped off its foundation and swept away in a flood early Thursday evening. Another house in Kaluanui was surrounded by water.

First responders remove the victim of a two-car, head-on collision on Haleakala Highway during a driving rainstorm Thursday afternoon near the intersection of Firebreak Road. No other details about the cause of the crash or the condition of the victim were available Thursday evening.

Makawao Avenue between Piiholo and Kokomo roads was flooded at about 3 p.m. Thursday. Heavy rains Upcountry and in East Maui washed away a cottage, flooded cars and closed roads.
VANESSA GHANTOUS photo
Brewer Road in Makawao was flooded and deemed impassable by the County of Maui at around 4 p.m. As of Thursday night, the road was still closed.
The Maui News / CHRIS SUGIDONO photo
Fire personnel were able to assist two people from the house surrounded by water, while three others decided to remain in the home, said Fire Services Chief Lee Mainaga on Thursday night.
Other residents in the Kaluanui area were voluntarily asked to evacuate their homes, Mainaga added. Emergency shelters were being set up Thursday night.
In addition to homes, fire personnel reported three vehicles stuck in water at Maliko Gulch. The passengers all got out safely, Mainaga said.
Parts of Maui were under either a flood advisory or a flash-flood warning all day Thursday with heavy rain pounding the windward slopes of Haleakala in the afternoon. The National Weather Service extended a flash-flood warning to midnight Thursday, citing radar showing heavy showers along the windward slopes.
According to the National Weather Service, 3.19 inches of rain fell in Pukalani in a three-hour period ending at 5 p.m. Thursday. Kahului Airport received 1.06 inches of rain during the same period.
Puu Kukui in the West Maui Mountains, one of the wettest spots in the world, received the most rainfall over a 24-hour period ending 5 p.m. Thursday with 4.64 inches.
At 8:15 p.m. Thursday, Maui Civil Defense was scheduled to open an emergency shelter at the Hannibal Tavares Community Center in Pukalani. County spokesman Rod Antone said that the shelter was set up for those displaced by the heavy rains and flooding as well as residents who could not go back to their homes because of various road closures.
As of 8 p.m. Thursday, Kee Road in Makawao between Makawao and Baldwin avenues and Brewer Road in Makawao were closed. Police reopened a portion of Makawao Avenue in the town that had been closed earlier in the day, although Makawao Avenue between Piiholo and Kokomo roads were still closed Thursday evening.
Kaupakalua Road in Haiku was closed between West Kuiaha and Kauhikoa roads.
The heavy rain did cause problems for at least two Makawao businesses.
The Designing Wahine Emporium along Baldwin Avenue was "ankle deep" in water, said saleswoman Eve Kaiakala on Thursday afternoon.
"It happened really fast," she said. "We didn't think the water would go under the building."
Kaiakala and fellow saleswoman Annie Kinoshita said that the water seeped in from the bottom of the walls and "ran like rivers" due to the slight slope of the store.
Most of the merchandise did not get wet, said Kaiakala, but the floor, tables and dressers that hold the merchandise were soaked. The saleswoman immediately called a flood specialist, who pumped the water out of the store.
"They're gonna bring fans in tonight to dry (the furniture) all up. . . . It's crazy," said Kinoshita.
At Rodeo General Store, Manager Wesley Echo Hawk said that rainwater was coming through the roof and through the light fixtures. With around a half-dozen buckets throughout the store, he pointed to the office ceiling, which was noticeably warped from the rain.
Store workers also had to use brooms to push water out of the store as rainwater and runoff flowed just outside the store's doors, he said.
He has been working at the store for three years and said he's "never seen it this bad."
At nearby Polli's Mexican Restaurant, manager and hostess Jules Bundschuh said that workers earlier in the afternoon used a Shop Vac to suck up rainwater that was coming toward the back of the restaurant from nearby Olinda Road.
When Makawao Avenue in front of the restaurant was closed for a portion of Thursday, Bundschuh said there was a back up of cars heading to Haiku. But by 7 p.m. traffic was moving and the restaurant was about three-fourths full, which included those who could not get back to their homes because roads were closed, she said.
In Pukalani, the Kuykendall family's home was spared from water but not their property.
The family again saw water from a nearby ditch flood their property near Pukalani Elementary School, damaging their yard, said Evelyn Kuykendall. The flooding has occurred several times in the past. Kuykendall's son, Travis, recently had a wall built to hold back as much water as possible.
The Kuykendalls said that they are frustrated because their property still floods, and that they still get the run around from government officials over who is responsible for maintaining the ditch.
The family said that the state says it owns it.
They said overflowing water from the ditch between their property and the school has caused thousands of dollars in damage.
"At 83, I don't want this to happen again," Evelyn Kuykendall said.
Olinda resident Jasmine Bustamente, who spent the day commuting to and from her home for work, said there were so many mud puddles she had to dodge just to get to her car.
"The rain was just insane," she said Thursday night after her excursions in the Upcountry area.
As she drove from Olinda to Paia early Thursday evening she said she saw a stream running through Rainbow Park.
"I never seen that before," she said.
The National Weather Service in Honolulu said breezy and gusty trade winds with periods of enhanced heavy showers are to be expected through at least tonight. Although showers also will fall in leeward sections, rainfall will be focused along windward slopes.
A drier pattern of windward and mauka showers will develop during the weekend.
The weather service also extended its high-surf advisory for east-facing shores of Molokai and Maui until 6 p.m. Sunday. Surf is expected to be in the 6-to-8-foot range, with occasional higher sets.

In the end, Berkeley just couldn't match the Green Wave's impressive offensive arsenal.
Summerville traveled to Berkeley's Bonner Stadium Friday and used an explosive and balanced attack to earn a 43-20 win over the Stags.
"We gave up a lot of yards but our defense held when it had to and we finished with more points which is the important thing," Summerville coach John McKissick said. "Berkeley played us a good game but our offensive line gave our quarterback time to throw the ball and we made some exciting plays. Darin Smalls had a nice play as a receiver and returned a punt for a touchdown and David Coccoli had a big run for us."
Summerville (2-0) only outgained Berkeley (0-2) in total offensive yards by a 353 to 326 margin but the Wave had more big plays. Summerville QB Sawyer Bridges completed 11 of 26 pass attempts for 174 yards and two TDs. The Wave rushed for 179 yards and a pair of scores.
Bridges opened the scoring with a 17-yard touchdown pass to tight end Sean Smith, who finished the evening with eight receptions for 67 yards. However, the extra-point play failed.
Berkeley then scored on a 55-yard TD run by Joseph Dress and took a 7-6 lead on Vance Bailey's PAT kick.
After that, Summerville took charge. Key to the Wave's surge were three plays that gained 206 yards and three scores.
Smalls had a 77-yard TD catch and a 76-yard punt return for a TD. David Coccoli ripped off a 55-yard TD run late in the game.
Berkeley intercepted a pass late in the second quarter, but Summerville held the Stags to a field goal on their ensuing drive and the Wave took a 26-10 lead into the half.
Berkeley's Joshua Simmons cut the lead to 26-17 with a 12-yard TD run in the third quarter, but that was the last time Summerville would allow Berkeley to reach the end zone.
The Wave went on to add a 44-yard field goal by David Kennedy, Smalls' 76-yard punt return and Coccoli's 55-yard TD scamper while holding the Stags to only a field goal the rest of the game.
Tailback Jacerie Ponder led the Wave rushers with 86 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. Coccoli finished with 75 rushing yards on seven carries.
This week, Summerville hosts Goose Creek at 7:30 p.m. Friday. The Gators will also carry a 2-0 record into the game.

6 Things Everyone Wants To Share And Nobody Wants To Read
Your Lists
This might sound a little ironic for Cracked, but I'm talking about the, "list all the things on your desk right now," or "list all the CDs you have on your shelf." I guess I'm dating myself with that one. You kids these days are all about sharing your playlists and your mp3s.
Through the generations, though, one thing has remained constant -- nobody wants to see them. There's no written record of it but I'm pretty sure Victorians often found themselves rescinding ball invitations to people who would constantly list their phonograph collections in polite conversation.
Via National Park Service
"... and Electric Light Quadrille and Claire de Lune ..."
Even in "10 favorite games" threads, most people are just skimming your list to see if you have any games they like and skipping the rest. You might think this is the perfect place to turn people on to your favorite obscure Japanese game that's never been translated to English and you had to play with a phrasebook in one hand and a controller in the other (but the story was JUST AMAZING). But here's what other people are going to see:
On the other hand, there might be some other random person out there who also loves Radiant Potato Warrior IV or whatever, and you might find a new friend to be sad with together, so there's that.
Your Drama
There is a threshold for how interesting the average stranger will find your account of "what Stephanie did" or this crazy drama you got into in your WoW guild. And this threshold is basically felony level behavior.
Via U.S. Forest Service
Basically, it should look something like this.
Did Stephanie gut a man? Did someone go to jail as a result of your guild catfight? No? Then your story is probably absolutely fascinating to people who know Stephanie or your guild, and nobody else. The fact that she totally called you a "ho bag" or that you both liked the same guy and sent him sexy pictures is not going to get me to look up from my newspaper, even if I am reading an article about corporate earnings. It might even make that article look more interesting.
Suddenly interesting somehow.
Interpersonal conflicts are always absolutely captivating to the people involved in them and your own breakups and rejections in particular feel like they're at a level of life-or-death importance. And they should be really important ... to you. That's why we have the whole concept of a family unit, or a circle of friends, so there can be like 2 to 10 people just as vitally interested in your important, but not unusual, relationship problems as you are.
Via Wikimedia Commons
"No! He didn't!"
The world is full of millions of family units, each one going through their own drama, most of them really similar except for a few details. So when you tell someone what's going on with your group, and it isn't amazingly bizarre or criminal, chances are they've seen the same thing in their group at some point in their lives, and their homegrown incident will be much more interesting to them because it happened to their homies.
Just think about it. People yell at each other and throw things at each other in relationships all the time, and never get a news story written about them. Lorena Bobbitt only hit the news because she cut a penis off.
Via Instructables.com
Here is a safe-for-work reproduction of that event.
Next time you think you have a "great story" that will make strangers gasp at how crazy your friends are, ask yourself if it's penis-cutting good, because that's what we're talking about here.
Your Cats
As the title of the column implies, offering to tell someone about your cats is a formidable and effective threat.
It's easy for many people who own cats to observe how completely insane and mentally deficient their cats are and mistake that for a unique and interesting observation that will fascinate others. The truth is that all cats are insane. Every single one.
Via Fanpop
I mean, just look at them.
Sure, my cat is apparently autistic, while other people's cats seem to suffer from OCD or paranoid schizophrenia, but the exact diagnosis doesn't matter. The point is that, unless your cat can talk, or pass through walls, or shapeshift into human form, it's probably not much weirder than anyone else's cat.
Via tvshowsaboutgirls.com
Or unless it's a creepy talking puppet.
And thanks to the Internet, I'm afraid pretty much everyone is familiar with all the top insane cat behaviors, so much so that they are mostly inventing fictional ones now.
Via icanhascheezburger.com
Cats cannot, in fact, play the piano.
Sometimes people will ask you -- maybe personally, or maybe ask people generally in a forum thread -- to talk about your cats. This might give you the impression that people out there are interested in hearing about your cats.
About 90 percent of the time, if you respond to this request, you are going to get a story in return about that person's cat or cats. I can't read minds so I'm not going to say they were just asking you to get an opening to talk about their cat -- but, hey, you draw your own conclusions.
Now here are some pictures of my cats.
And since you were clearly so interested in all of that (I didn't hear anyone say they weren't), one more.

Sushi has become so commonplace that you can buy it at gas stations, but it can be surprisingly hard to reel in a really lovely piece of fish.
Since Samurai (9648 Transit Road, No. 450, East Amherst, www.samuraibuffalo.com, 688-7808) opened in June 2008, chef-owner James Shao's menu of tweaked Japanese and Asian classics has made him a lot of fans.
One of the hits is Thai crispy fish ($16.95), an 8-ounce hunk of Chilean sea bass rolled in a thin potato starch batter and quickly fried. Then there's the sauce, a Thai-inspired sweet-and-sour sauce flavored with fresh oranges and a minor kick of chile heat.
The result is crunchy fun on a plate. It's aromatic, piquant and yet still tastes like fish, which is an accomplishment that requires skilled hands.
"We have so many good dishes," Shao said. "We haven't even talked about the sesame chicken or mango shrimp."
– Andrew Z. Galarneau

What if there were no Buffalo Board of Education? That's one of the ideas respondents to a Buffalo News survey floated. They suggested Mayor Byron W. Brown might want to follow in the path laid out by New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, who got state permission to take over his city school system. The Board of Education was abolished. The schools chancellor – the equivalent of a superintendent – now reports to Bloomberg.
Others suggested a less radical approach: Brown should get control of a few School Board seats so he can influence how school district money is spent and children are educated.
The mayor of Buffalo has no official role in the city's school system, except to provide the school district with tax revenue the city collects on its behalf. But in the eyes of many survey respondents, that doesn't let Brown off the hook for the sorry state of city schools.
Brown's lowest grade in the survey was for education, with half the respondents flunking his leadership in the area, and another 20 percent giving him a D.
"He's abandoned the schools," one business leader wrote.
"The No. 1 priority should be fixing the city schools," wrote one community leader.
Brown declined to be interviewed for these stories, but his office previously provided The Buffalo News with a list of what he's done for the schools: He named a deputy mayor as liaison to the school district. He co-chairs Say Yes Buffalo, a program that provides college scholarships and classroom support. He cleaned up neighborhoods around schools. He added more resource teachers and now, through a partnership with M&T Bank and Buffalo Promise Neighborhood, will provide more attendance officers. Brown also oversees the ongoing schools reconstruction project, and in his first year in office, increased city aid to the schools.
During Brown's first mayoral campaign, he indicated he might consider pushing for mayoral control of some School Board seats. There's no evidence that Brown ever pursued that plan. Then, in 2011, Brown floated the idea of some form of mayoral control during an Albany budget hearing, noting that a "lack of accountability" is one reason school district operations are not more cost effective. But dialogue didn't advance beyond that.
Mayoral control of the Buffalo School Board is a hot topic in various circles around town, said Peter F. Hunt, president of Hunt Real Estate. Hunt would like to see it happen in Buffalo. But if Brown doesn't want to advocate for mayoral control, he should advocate for something, Hunt said.
Others warn mayoral control is not a silver bullet. Mayoral control is "a cheap excuse for demanding immediate results," said Joseph A. Gardella Jr., chairman of the city's Environmental Management Commission, who is also a University at Buffalo professor. "People are grasping for immediate solutions for problems that have taken 60 years to develop."

I run it in .17 Rem, .223 Rem, 220 Swift, 6 mm Rem, and .25-06. It's pretty versatile stuff.
December 22, 2012, 06:58 PM
It will work in any of my rifles with any bullet but it doesn't work well in any of them.
Hondo 60
December 22, 2012, 07:04 PM
I only have one rifle - an AR15A1 (5.56 chamber)
Varget & RL-15 are the only powders it's ever seen.
December 22, 2012, 07:04 PM
.223 and .308 gas guns. Pretty hard to beat.
December 22, 2012, 07:07 PM
Varget is good, but not the best in my .223, 25.06 & .270. I haven't tinkered with it in 30.06 because my only 30.06 is a Garand and she's partial to 4895.
December 22, 2012, 07:09 PM
I have used Varget in .223, .243, .308 and 45 70. Its pretty versatile.
December 22, 2012, 07:18 PM
You can add the .375 H&H Mag to the list too.
This thread reminds me of the time I bought 4lb of VV 120 and 2lb of VV 130 because it was cheap and available. I had no idea as to what I would use it for but at $19 per pound I figured I should buy it.
December 22, 2012, 07:54 PM

.223, 45-70, and yes, 30-30.
December 22, 2012, 08:59 PM
I bought a pound of Varget when it first came out. I have found that it doesn't work better in any of the calibers that I reload than the powders I had already used to develop good accurate loads.
Adequate but not better.
December 22, 2012, 09:01 PM
December 22, 2012, 09:04 PM
.223 gas gun and .308 bolt gun. Varget is great stuff ....
December 22, 2012, 10:35 PM
.223 (AR and Savage 12FTR), .243, .308, 30-06.
It works well enough in everything I shoot to use it exclusively. My Savage 12FTR and Rem 700 Tactical .308 both shoot cloverleafs with it and the others shoot as well as I can with iron sights. Light 30-06 loads shoot very well in my Garand as well.
December 22, 2012, 10:39 PM
My buddy uses it in his .270 with great results. I've been working up a load with my 7mm-08 using 139 gr Nosler BTs. So far it looks like a toss up betwen H-380 and Varget. I'm thinking about going with the Varget simply beause of the advertisement and testimonials on it's stability in temp swings.
December 22, 2012, 11:23 PM
I use it for 223, 22-250, 243, 308 and 7.5x55 Swiss. I have about 20 lbs so looking for additional uses. Have not tried it in 270, 30-30 or 30-06 but may have to give it a try.
December 22, 2012, 11:44 PM
I use Varget for .308 Win. with very good results for a 1:12 22" bolt action
December 22, 2012, 11:55 PM
I use it in .260 Rem and 8x57 Mauser so far. Haven't seen a reason to try anything else yet.
December 23, 2012, 12:50 AM
I use it for .243 Winchester and .30-06 (150gr).
There are better powders for heavier bullets in .30-06, but Varget works OK for me with 150gr bullets, including a Garand.
December 23, 2012, 01:08 AM
Just starting to play with it in the 35 Whelen.
December 23, 2012, 01:36 AM
I just bought my first can of Varget. Thought I would try it in 222 Rem.
December 23, 2012, 08:24 AM
Wow. You call $19 lb cheep? How much is new powder? For the last year I've been seeing some at that price & refuse to buy it. I have paid that or almost that for a few lbs but most of the powder I have bought in the last three years has been between $4-10 lb. I have a nice stock so if it is that high I'll leave that to the grand kids to buy there self. I bought enough that they even paid half the shipping & Hazmat.
December 23, 2012, 08:24 AM
I use it in .223, 6mmBR, and .308. It works very well in all of them. The 6mmBR really does well with it.
I haven't tried it in any other calibers yet.
December 23, 2012, 08:42 AM
223, 223AI, 243, 243AI, 308 for me.
December 23, 2012, 08:47 AM
223, 243, 308, and 6X45... The 6x45 likes H4895 better, so will see if the others do. Still trying to find one "magical" powder that works with everything I reload.
December 23, 2012, 10:05 AM
Just starting to play with it in the 35 Whelen.
Try RL 15 in .35 Whelen. VERY accurate using top-end loads.
December 23, 2012, 11:57 AM
Wow. You call $19 lb cheep? How much is new powder? I have paid that or almost that for a few lbs but most of the powder I have bought in the last three years has been between $4-10 lb.
Powder Valley is one of the most competitively priced retailers on the planet and Vihta Vuori N120 and N130 sells for $31.00 per pound, so yes, $19 per pound is a very good price. I'd like to know what powder you're buying for $4 to $10 per pound. Talcum powder perhaps!
December 23, 2012, 04:49 PM
..."but most of the powder I have bought in the last three years has been between $4-10 lb."
Dayum! Used to see those prices maybe 25 years ago or so but nowhere around here or on the internet in the last three years.
December 23, 2012, 06:17 PM
I use it for my AR loads as well and it works quite well.
December 23, 2012, 06:33 PM
I use Varget in .223 and 308. Both are Rem 700 varmint barreled. Good stuff.
December 23, 2012, 07:25 PM
and 308 when I had one
December 23, 2012, 08:51 PM
Thanks for the laugh. I by mostly pull down with of names that no one knows what it is from Jeff at gibrass.com test it and make my own data. If you buy him out of the odd stuff he will cover part of yes shipping for you. Don't expect him to deal on the stuff he can't keep in stock tho.

.223 and .308 bolt guns. Varmint and deer loads. I just built an AR set up for varminting, so I'll try my bolt gun load and see how it does, maybe tweak that load for the new rifle. I really donlt want to have to buy different powder. I'm down to Red Dot and Varget now.
December 24, 2012, 11:41 AM

Still Shooting
December 25, 2012, 11:53 PM
I've tried Varget in .243 and .257 Roberts; just loaded a couple hundred rounds in .223. Surprisingly, the best in the Roberts turns out to be 8208 XBR. 5 rounds in a single hole, and VERY temperature-independent as experienced between August and November here in Northern NY State. -We'll see what it does in the AR, which up to now has been "eating" Win748.
December 26, 2012, 11:32 PM

Stopped at three shops/stores that carry reloading supplies yesterday. All had some powder, although no Varget, also had bullets, but primers.........nope.
December 27, 2012, 08:28 PM
I tried it in 270 with mediocre results. But 308 is a different story... Varget, win brass, cci 200 primers, and 168 sierra bthp or btsp is the only thing my 308 shoots.
December 27, 2012, 10:47 PM
Love Varget! I use it in .223, .22-250 (light bullets), 6mm BR, .308 Win, and (90 Gr JHP) .270 Win. I wish it would meter better, but it always seems to shoot well.
January 23, 2013, 12:50 PM

Non-magnum rifle loads from 243 to 45-70.
It doesn't meter well in my Dillon press for small bores, but as the diameter increases the better it meters.
January 24, 2013, 07:48 AM
I've found it to give me the best balance of speed, accuracy and temperature insensetivity in my 308's. RL-15, 4064, and 4895 were very good in some areas, but not the all around winner.
January 24, 2013, 12:58 PM
30-06 and 308
January 24, 2013, 08:08 PM
.30-06 Springfield for Garand loads with Varget shoots right with the LC'69 surplus I like.
5.56 NATO in my AR works nice too.
January 24, 2013, 11:28 PM
I've used it in my .223 reloads, it fills most of the case up and makes it easy to find any questionable powder drops.
January 25, 2013, 12:39 AM
.223 Remington with 55 gr and heavier bullets
.243 Win with lighter (75 gr and under bullets)
6.5x55 going to try it with some 120 gr bullets
.308 Win for my wife's nephew's new rifle
.338 Federal, only so-so, better results with IMR-8208XBR and TAC

Varget is a very good choice for my 308.

I have use4d Varget for:
It shoots pretty good in about everything, but IMR-3031, IMR-4064, and Re-15 are all better (for me) overall. If it was the only powder I could get, I could live with it. YMMV.
