|Bonefish, Tarpon, and other Obsessions Turquoise water, silver demons on the fly
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Again, I'm in regardless of the final decision. Juro, I agree with your last comments and think that fishable flats and plentiful hungry bones should be the primary basis for our decision. Two points I'd like to raise.....
1. The imprtance of flexibility in our costs. Juro you mentioned this in your last post. I like the idea of having individual or double room costs (flights as well). The possibility of cancellations always looms. Though nobody's fault, we all have lives and families and things come up - emergencies, unforseen obligations etc. By lodging in double or single occupancy rooms and avoiding charter flights we can ensure that the trip survives with no increase in costs to the people going even if people have to drop out.
2. Square mileage of flats. We're going to need alot of DIY ground. I think everyone interested in this trip has seen the way one tear @$% spooked bone can ruin hundreds of square yards of feeding fish by streaking across a flat. We're a helluva good group of fishermen but there will be spooked fish and with ten guys out on those flats we're going to need room.
Well, that's my .02, I can't wait for this to happen and to fish with all you guys.
Long Island
Juro. Please email me off Forum at email@example.com. I can't get the PM to work. Went to the buddy list to try to PM you. I don't know how else to do it and I have important info to share with the group with your OK. I'm headed to work. back around 6:30PM.
Thanks Bill! Of course it would be fantastic to have you attend.
The Crooked Island / Acklins (day trips) plan does not rely on any more than two people to get the airfare/lodging price, in other words no charters or group cottages needed. The only caveat is the rental car rate which would require 4 people to lower to $15 per day, other than that the rooms are two per / and the flights individual.
Research indicates that there is no need for a boat or guide and competition should be nearly non-existent with unadulterated angling bountiful. The vast majority of bones on these remote out-islands have never seen a fly, and tarpon / permit are also around. I will be bringing the Atlantis for the eastern beaches to see if I can banger'up some big dinner.
I am hoping we can get into a rhythm of lobster and grouper dinners as well, I am happy spending half the day bonefishing and half the day 'picking crawfish' in paradise. Fresh grouper fillet and carribean lobster tails are among my favorites, and I hear Hylena (host of Casuarina Cottages) bakes the best pies on the island.
It's a trade off between more amenities and limited DIY availability and less amenities and what appears by all accounts to be boundless DIY opportunity.
Compared to camping these cottages seem lavish; and the setting is heads and shoulders above what I stay in on most of my fishing trips which I already enjoy thoroughly. Of al the things I worry about the accomodations seem quite adequate, and the promise of ridiculousness is hard to resist.
Still not absolutely confirmed (plans not established with my wife) but still count on me and Larry. Will try to firm up asap.
|Just read thru the pile... nothin in the inbox from you. try again maybe?
Juro. I sent you a PM. Hope it went through.
It's cold outside!!!! Stayed home from work today. Called out! All those interested in this trip. Please check out this site. I saw a huge flat inside the elbow of southern Long Island. Very remote. The iMac I am using does not allow me to cut and paste so you'll have to do this on your own. And we thought South Beach was a hual!
Click on 'FIND PHOTOS' You will view a clickable map of the world.
Click then on the quadrant of the Bahamas. It's there! Just look for the blue speck. You may have to type in Long Island at some point. There is a great shot of L.I. and Crooked/Akclins in one photo. I feel warmer now just looking at this site as I'm sure you will too!
Happy surfing!
Thanks Frank. Great to have you aboard along with Fred A! Plug away on the internet and find whatever you can from other DIY fisherman. That would be a great help. Here is some valuable info from Steve Vletas, author of Bahamas Flyfishing Guide. Here is what he had to say about Long Island in a PM to me:
Lot's of people write to us about fishing on their own, but usually they are not serious or interested in fishing and exploring on their own. They just want us to tell them everything, including all tide nuances. This defeats the purpose of fishing on your own, exploring on your own. If that's what they want, hire guides! If you really want to fish and explore on your own, south Long Island, meaning south of Deadman's cay all the way to the end of the island, is the best remote fishing you can access without a boat anywhere in the Bahamas.
And Acklins:
Better be prepared for unforseen glitches in car rentals, fuel, resturants that are open and finding groceries. Ther are only a few lodging choices. Also be aware that mosquitoes are an every day presence and worse after rain. A wonderful place to explore if you are patient and can deal with the above. Also, very few roads, if you can find them leading to productive flats. Bushwacking is a neccessity. The Crookeds are a different story as it is more heavily populated, but not by far. Services are better there.
More on the Acklins: Crooked from Juro. Let's keep this count going!
More than likely I will be in no matter which place is chosen...
Long Island April dates look good right now...
I contacted my travel agent to see what flight prices are like to both places...
Of course for me the prices would be from BOS but I will try to find out from
other areas too....
If there is anything I can help with...research etc...please let me know...I am willing to help.
Good point Juro. Bob did not mention the name of the company that flys us to Long Island from Georgetown although he says they are safe and very reliable. He must know. He uses them himself. A 5 passenger plane is $275 and the nine passenger plane is $390. These quotes are for one way travel. He did not mention landing fees. I will check. Also will check on max. capacity on the cars or if we can get a van.
The Turnbull house is $2000 for the week.
This is the reason I am asking for the headcount now. We will have a better idea of expenses when that count is firm. If we rent a boat there should be no guiding or should I say poling of said boat. This will only infuriate any of the guides in the Bahamas as they are the only ones allowed to guide there.
No need to go North of Deadmans Cay. Bob has assured me there are plenty of spots to explore to the south. You don't see them from space but they are there.
Steve Vletas has also confirmed this fact. We can take a ride up to Cape Santa Maria
if need be for the spouse trip as a dual purpose venture.
Phil -
I am having a hard time putting all the pieces together the way you are describing them.
Let's start with the totals and divide as we get headcount rather than get headcount first. Initial Flight to GGT (Georgetown Exuma) varies based on origin so we can figure that ourselves, estimate $500.
Please list:
Charter flight total cost:
Please provide carrier information / quote for the plane options (6 seater, 9 seater etc) including landing fees etc.
Car Rental:
4 passengers per vehicle w/ gear = 2 vehicles vs 1?
Lodging cost in total:
We can divide later when we know how many people.
I think we can safely estimate $100 per person for food where there is a kitchen and 6 lobster per person per day limit and maybe a grouper or snapper or two (license required to retain lobster / fish)
Gas is a factor - Long Island is 80 miles long and if we can't DIY effectively near Deadman's then there will be a long drive to start the day at Stella Maris (I will not be fishing with a guide). Maybe we should include additional pricing for lodging options on the north end, up to you. Boat rental is another way to go.
I will do same for the Acklins / Crooked estimates.
I'm in.
Big applause to Phil and Juro for all the leg work on this venture.
Ridiculous Clave... Head Count!
OK. We've narrowed our search down to two locations in the southern Bahamas.
Long Island---Deadams Cay 4/12---4/19
Crooked--Acklins Island ??????????
Airfare to Great Exuma is currently about $450.00 per person RT with Taxes from PVD. A hired air charter for nine passengers from Georgetown, Exuma will run $90.00 RT and is a very short flight. A car will run us $50.00 a day divided by the group. Lodging stands at around $225.OO PP for the week. Check out previous posts with details on the Turnbull House on Long Island. So, we are at around $800 per person before we add food, drink and options for guiding.
It's time for a headcount again on who wants to go, regardless of destination.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Akclins Crooked Island Adventure-- Somewhat primative. Juro will post soon on this.
Deadmans Cay Long Island --------- Very civilized w/ all the amenities.
Please reserve your reply to this thread to head counts only. We need info from Juro
on Acklins Crookeds before we comment on that destination.
Thank you,

Lazaridis School of Business & Economics
Laurier BBA students a success at CFA Institute Research Challenge
Mar 6/12
A team of students from Lauriers School of Business & Economics placed second out of eight Ontario schools that competed in the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) Institute Research Challenge sponsored by the Toronto CFA Society. The team consisting of BBA students Mike Cestas, Greg Cohen, Sushrut Deodhar Alex Garriock, and Matthew Jolliffe prepared an analyst report on Onex Corporation, a private equity manager listed on the Toronto stock exchange.
On the basis of their written report, Lauriers team was selected to be one of four finalists who presented their analysis to a panel of judges in Toronto on March 1, 2012. The Laurier team placed second behind the University of Waterloo, whose team consisted of graduate students from the Masters of Accounting program. Other finalists included the Schulich School of Business, York University, and the University of Toronto, Scarborough.
Lauriers team was mentored by Finance Professor Brian Smith and CFA charter holder, Gerry Ramos, a wealth planner with HSBC. Smith noted I am very proud of the Laurier team. These students who just took their first finance course in the Fall worked incredibly hard to understand a complex company and deliver an outstanding report and presentation.
Lauriers strong performance follows its 2009-2010 first place finish in the same competition. This annual Challenge is designed to promote best practices in equity research among the next generation of analysts through hands-on mentoring and intensive training in company analysis and presentation skills.

A round of applause goes to the tea baggers who ruined what could have been a pretty good night for Republicans and helped Democrats pick up a seat that they haven't held since the civil war. Special thanks go to Sara Palin, Tim Pawlenty, Glenn Beck, and Club for Growth. Thanks for giving us something to laugh about on an otherwise tough night.

Conquest of political power by jack booted democrats hit a speed bump.
We live in Cuba now.
Interesting also, that the only reason this seat was available was because because O took the previously elected rep into his cabinet.
Watching some of the early returns from NJ, Christie was really hammering Corzine in quite a few counties. That was almost a surprise considering that the race had been said to close to call. The overall state votes were close when I happened to be watching, so not sure of the end result %-age wise.

If even 3% had taken note, the results would have been even, as the vote was 46/49 for the final results. That really isn't so bad for a candidate who went up against the two-party system.

Is there anyone attending Wizard World who would be willing to pick up one of the Clone Trooper Pilot busts for me? Though we are getting Wizard World Texas in November (just 5 minutes from home no less), I suspect there will be no such busts available that late into the game. This despite the fact that Wizard's advertizing suggests that the busts will be available at all of their 2004 shows. Please let me know if you can help. I can send payment via PayPal (plus an additional percentage to offset their fees) or send a money order out ASAP upon confirmation of the price and shipping costs.

blacklab12, I understood that you were following Hillman's puppy DVD but it appears that you aren't as you skipped the use of the ecollar, and are now teaching your dog handling skills that aren't in the dvd. This may be why you are confused.
My advice: If you are past the material in Hillman, move on. Buy more advanced training material and follow the directions in it as best you can. If you get stuck, try and find a warm body to help you but if that is not possible ask here. That has worked ok for me. Don't skip steps because each one builds on the previous.

Man admits killing girlfriend, dies in shootout
POCATELLO, Idaho - An Idaho man who confessed to killing his girlfriend and then pulled a gun on detectives died several hours later in a shootout with a SWAT team.
Bannock County officials say Boede Paul called the sheriff's office Wednesday morning asking to meet with detectives about the Jan. 6 disappearance of 23-year-old Angela Schultz of Pocatello.
Detectives met with Paul at his residence in southeastern Idaho, where he told officers that he killed Schultz and wanted to show them where he buried her.
He pulled a gun and detectives called for backup. Paul sat in his pickup as officers tried for hours to get him to surrender. At about 7 p.m., Paul got out of his pickup and started shooting. Officers returned fire.
Authorities planned to begin searching for Schultz's body Thursday.

Focus on Funds
Largest MLP Funds Perform Nearly In Lockstep
With reporting season underway for energy Master Limited Partnerships, an update on two of the largest MLP funds.
The Kayne Anderson MLP Company (KYN), the closed-end fund that slumped earlier this month after an offering, is up roughly 21% year to date; it employs leverage to boost returns. The JPMorgan Alerian MLP ETN (AMJ), an exchange-traded note, is up nearly 25%. Each is trading at a premium to its net asset value.
It's tough for funds to fully track the benchmark Alerian MLP Index, since some funds do account for taxes depending on their structure. More on that from Kayne Anderson here and a table of fund tickers in our March post, "Divergent Roads For MLP Funds."
Morningstar dubs the JPMorgan MLP note "the world's largest exchange-traded note." Morningstar went sour on the note last year, but it has clearly outperformed some of its peers. Morningstar.com's boilerplate on the note says:
"It was our pick for investing in master limited partnerships until JP Morgan capped creations in June of 2012. The decision was most likely driven by the bank's recent trading losses from the "London Whale" scandal and subsequent desire to lower hedging risks. The decision effectively turned the note into a closed-end product: if demand exceeds shares available, the ETN will trade at a premium to net asset value."
Despite the threat of rising interest rates , master-limited partnerships may hold up better than other yield products because they can increase distributions as they invest in the U.S. energy boom. While all MLPs borrow to grow, and the amount is typically half of its spending needs, not all individual MLPs are created equal when it comes to borrowing. Ned Davis Research concluded in a recent report that "partnerships with the lowest debt-to-equity ratios consistently outperform their more leveraged brethren."
More here on the ABCs of MLP ETFs and ETNs, with regrets for the alphabet soup.
The largest midstream/pipeline MLP, Kinder Morgan (KMI), and its related companies, report results today (conference call at 4:30 p.m. EST.) Analysts at Credit Suisse warned yesterday that MLPs could reach new highs in July, but often sell off in August.

NBA's new fashion statement
League hopes to cash in on sleeved jerseys when they debut during Christmas gamesNovember 21, 2013 12:04 AM
Professional basketball players are some of the best athletes on the planet and have no qualms showing off their biceps in a traditional tank top basketball jersey. Most fans who pay to watch them can't quite muster the same sculpted look.
No problem. The National Basketball Association is rolling out short-sleeve jerseys meant, in part, to help sell more shirts to the crowd drinking soda and beer in the stands or on the couch.
"The tank top look just isn't very appealing," said Matt Powell, a Scarborough, Maine-based analyst with SportsOneSource, a company that tracks the sporting goods industry. "Well, maybe it's appealing if you're 6 foot 5 and chiseled, but if you're 5 foot 5 and not so chiseled, you're not going to look so good."
The NBA already generates $900 million annually in jersey sale revenue, second only to the National Football League, which generates $1.2 billion annually, Mr. Powell said. Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League each pull in about $400 million.
So a lot of people are buying the NBA jerseys, even if they have to put on a T-shirt underneath.
But Mr. Powell and Christopher Arena -- vice president of identity, outfitting and equipment for the NBA Global Merchandising Group -- believe there is room for growth.
The most important driver of sales is, of course, success.
"Above all else, you're going to find that teams that win and teams that have that superstar player are going to drive sales," Mr. Arena said. "But we think this provides a little more wearability for fans."
Ten teams will wear sleeved jerseys on Christmas, joining three other teams who already incorporated them into their wardrobes this season. The Christmas Day jerseys went on sale last week at Dick's Sporting Goods, the Findlay sporting goods retailer, for $50 each.
"We know fans want to wear what the players wear, and short-sleeve jerseys are a wearable alternative for fans who would prefer not to wear a tank top," Chris Grancio, head of global basketball sports marketing at Adidas, said in an email.
Mr. Arena said most sleeved jerseys in the future will follow the same pricing model as the traditional tank top jerseys: $65 for replica jerseys, up to $300 for authentic jerseys.
Though the authentic jerseys will be form-fitting -- like those the players wear in games -- the replica jerseys and "Swingman" models will provide a little more breathing room -- after all, the same fans who aren't too proud of their guns might want to hide their guts, too.
The NBA has used its Christmas lineup to showcase new jersey designs in the past, but the sleeved jerseys might be more than just a one-game -- or one-year -- trend. Teams are scheduled to wear the jerseys on at least 50 occasions this season, including a few other league-wide initiatives. The NBA anticipates 13 teams in total will don a sleeved jersey this season.
Pat Cavanaugh, president and CEO of Crons, a sports apparel and sports nutrition manufacturer based in West View, said the fad could have staying power if they sell well and the players don't mind the new look.
"This is something, with the third jersey and all these alternative jerseys, the players like because from a fashion perspective, it's something different," said Mr. Cavanaugh, who played basketball at the University of Pittsburgh in the 1980s. Crons used to manufacture jerseys for Robert Morris University, but the company is focusing most of its efforts now on off-court apparel and sports nutrition bars.
There is some history of short-sleeve outfits in basketball. The 1946-47 Boston Celtics wore sleeved jerseys for one season while playing in the Basketball Association of America, a precursor to the NBA. The University of Evansville played for more than 50 years with sleeved jerseys before mostly ditching the look early last decade.
Last season, three NCAA basketball teams wore sleeved jerseys, including the champion University of Louisville, which wore sleeves in the national title game in April.
In the past, the NBA actually outlawed players from wearing T-shirts under their tank-top jerseys, which had become a popular form of fashion among college players since Patrick Ewing sported the look in the 1980s while playing for Georgetown.
German apparel manufacturer Adidas, which has an exclusive licensing deal with the NBA and dozens of college teams, approached the league last year with the idea to bring back sleeves. This time, the league was open to the idea, working with players to test the fabric, fit and function of the jerseys before pursuing a team bold enough to wear them. The Golden State Warriors introduced the design last season, wearing it during several games.
Within the next two seasons, a majority of NBA teams will have a short-sleeved jersey as part of the regular-season uniform rotation, Mr. Grancio said.
Where the trend goes from there is unclear. Mr. Arena said the league will evaluate how the jerseys function before expanding their use. He said retail sales will not factor much into the NBA's plans.
But Mr. Powell said sales will be the most important factor. If they sell well enough, they could become the norm.
"Any time a team or league changes a jersey, it's first and foremost about creating a new item to sell," he said.

But I am enjoying the in-class work and lessons and students much more than in previous years. :silverlining:

Yesterday I blogged about the 'reasons' that I have been away from the blog and podcast. Trending comments and emails would suggest that something is wrong over here in Jerryland.. and while life has its struggles in all of us. Things are just fine.
It seems though that there is an overwhelming amount of posts these days that suggest that we need a break sometimes, have a need to step away or down. And while I agree that, yes we need to take a break I don't believe that stepping away from things is always right. My Friend Scouter Adam posted recently about going Beyond Gilwell. In his post he listed his priorities. And for the most part I concur with his list.
My family comes first and always will. My Wife and kids are the center of my universe. Scouting is a big part in our family. So the two rarely conflict. Yes, an occassional celebration or anniversary, but by and large Scouting is our way of life. A family that try to live by the principles outlined in the Oath and Law.
My Troop is part of that family, so I try not to throw them in a separate category.
Obviously living the Law asks me to be loyal to my employer. Fortunately I have a job that once I am off the clock, I am off the clock. I can't bring the big brown truck home with me. I am a good employee and work hard. My job allows me the opportunity to do the things with my family that I wish to do.
Unit levels beyond the unit are not a priority to me. I participate, but make little effort to make things outside of my unit a priority. I am on the training team, I am on the committee, but everything else takes priority and Scouting above my unit will always get bumped for other things in my life.
This blog is a priority of mine in that it allows me to sit with my thoughts and express myself. I hope it helps, but at the end of the day, it really is for me to document my Scouting experience, life lessons, and help deliver that promise that is a priority in my life.
So reading all the blogs that suggest we 'take the summer off' or step away or down I conclude that it's not for me. Our Troop does not take the summer off. Our families are still there in the summer. Life goes on during the summer and all year-long. There is no need to take the summer off.. there is a need to evaluate priorities and remember what is most important to you.
Scouting is important to me. It is a passion of mine and I can't step away from it…. as much as I will never step away from my family.
Vacation is coming up and our family will have a great time… then it's off to Philmont!
Ok.. enough rambling from me. Bottom line is this…
Have a Great Scouting Day!

|Worldwide Flyfishing Discussion Talk flyfishing with members around the world!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
what makes flyfishing better?
(posted to Jeff's Site in thread "what makes flyfishing better?")
Couldn't keep me out of this one with a baseball bat!
I often explain the difference between flyfishing and conventional means in an analogy between sailing and motorboating. When sailing, you typically go "sailing", and the value of the experience is usually the journey itself. The enjoyment is in the essence of navigation on the seas, feeling the wind in your sails, and working the traditional devices like clockwork. When you get back to port, you have achieved your intended goal although you went no where in particular.
When motoring, you usually are in pursuit of getting from point A to point B as expediently as possible. The ride is fun and good, but you try to get it over with as soon as you can without "wasting time".
This plays in to the "end vs. the means" metaphor mentioned earlier. But there is much, much more. When folks mention the crafting of their own flies, to me it's not just the craftsmanship but a genesis of sorts, the ability to model life's secrets into fur and feathers and steel. You see a purple sheen on a herring's back as it flees from a raiding bass one morning, and you tie a lavendar polar flash tuft into your herring fly that night for the next morning's tide. You watch a six inch sand eel disappear into the summer sand on the flats one afternoon, and you tie a virtually transparent bodied 7 inch sand eel after dinner - and it puts a 38" fish on your line in 3 feet of water the next dropping tide. You start with chartruese clousers until you strip the fly through a school of real sand eels and think "all wrong" - and you DO SOMETHING about it (rootbeer flash, it's August!).
As mentioned, NE coastal scene is just one slice of the pie - enter trout, salmon, steelhead, warmwater species, bonefish, etc, etc - all of these core principles can be re-applied and evolved in the minds and vises of the fly angler.
In the end, the fly becomes an constantly evolving expression of your deep insight into the fishery. Although the design of the gear remains traditional, the collective pscyche of fly anglers grows radically by nature of it's experimental and generative nature. Then to re-inforce points already expressed, some fish just feel right on fly gear.
Stripers are the most handsome of fish but aren't the best fighters pound for pound. On a fly rod, they are great sport and there are few thrills like the deep bend a flyrod takes when a cow bass is heading for deep water.
Yeah some fish just feel right. Picture a fall evening in British Columbia, the shade is falling over a grove of aspens and the far bank on a glacial stream darkens as the giant October caddis start to emerge. Suddenly, searun rainbows the size of your leg start to have a flashback from the days when they were just smolt, sometimes chasing a dipping caddis across the surface like a trout. A decade's worth of such autumns' shapes a fly into something uniquely yours, something that incorporates all of the physical and behavioral details you've noted over the years, and your hands shake just to tie it on. Your line glides in a graceful loop over the current and lands softly into the shadowy run as you mend the line to hold it at half-speed on the surface film. With a lightning flash, a giant trout takes the fly but you wait.... until you feel the load in your wrist and set the hook into a leaping tornado of mercury and muscle, feeling every shake and pulse of the tail that brought the fish over several thousand miles of open pacific to the very river where it was born until the missle explodes out of the river sending beads of water flying like a grenade of diamonds. The single action reel screams as the fly line shears the surface behind it's acrobatic leaps.
You just don't want to waste that on anything but a fly rod!

It's only a matter of time before more organizations experience similar attacks. Why? Because hackers only need to exploit one vulnerability and defenders need to cover all of them. It typically just takes a single user unknowingly clicking on a link and the hacker is in. In addition, hackers spend 100 percent of their time focused on accomplishing the mission while most IT and security teams are tasked with multiple competing priorities, not only defending the network. Once these sophisticated attackers gain entry, the damage can be extensive.
Organizations can't expect to never get hacked. But they can expect to improve their response and mitigate the impact of attacks now and in the future. This eGuide will recommend five steps organizations should take once theyve been hacked.

Safeway (SWY) was rising more than 5% in recent trading, as the grocery store chain reported mixed-second-quarter earnings, but investors took heart from market share gains and an increase in same-store sales.
The company said it earned $8.4 million, or three cents a share, down from $122.7 million, or 51 cents a share, a year earlier. However, excluding one-items such, like increased legal reserves and expenses related to the spinoff of its gift-card unit Blackhawk Network Holdings (HAWK), adjusted earnings from continuing operations rose to 28 cents a share from 20 cents. Overall adjusted income attributable to Safeway was flat at 51 cents a share.
Revenue declined 1.6% to $8.7 billion, largely on lower fuel sales and the year-earlier sale of Genuardi stores.
Analysts were looking for earnings of 50 cents on revenue of $10.45 billion.
Same-store sales, excluding gasoline, rose 1.2%, compared with 0.8% growth earlier in the year; the company said it continues to gain share in U.S. markets.
Gross margin increased to 26.2% from 25.9%.
Citigroup's Deborah Weinswig reiterated her Hold rating on the stock, but noted that "we think market share gains continue to indicate that topline initiatives including Just For U are gaining traction"
Last month the stock popped on news that Safeway would sell its Canadian business. The shares are up more than 56% in the past year.

- Description
On July 11, 2012, The Center for Digital Archaeology joined 30+ other 'founder' startups at the Fairmont Hotel for a chance to share our stories with potential funders and newfound friends. It was a blast.
We placed a Gigapan robot in the room to capture the evening as it unfolded. Each gigapan image was made of 80 pictures, and when a room is filled to capacity with moving humans, it's makes for an interesting snapshot, since we couldn't ask everyone to play a game of red light green light and hold still for the camera. Or could we...?
Special thanks to Anna Vital for giving us the chance to capture some memories. We will be posting 4 gigapans from the evening as games. Explore them and see if you can find yourself or your friends, or your favorite startup!
Life 3.0 is the largest monthly startup demo show in San Francisco. We gather the most disruptive startup founders in the same room with investors, early adopters , and media. At Life 3.0, Funders and Founders mix to exchange ideas, do business, and get inspired.

The Rajah quilt
About the Rajah quilt
The Rajah quilt is one of Australia's most important textiles, and a major focus of the National Gallery of Australia's Australian textiles collection. While it is a work of great documentary importance in Australia's history, it is also an extraordinary work of art; a product of beauty from the hands of many women who, while in the most abject circumstances, were able to work together to produce something of hope.
Its story is one of hope and persistence, and has been a central subject of study into colonial life since its rediscovery in 1987. On its border is a stitched inscription which gives us an insight into the circumstances of the makers:
'To the ladies of the convict ship committee, this quilt worked by the convicts of the ship Rajah during their voyage to van Dieman's Land is presented as a testimony of the gratitude with which they remember their exertions for their welfare while in England and during their passage and also as a proof that they have not neglected the ladies kind admonitions of being industrious. June 1841.'
For the origins of such a testimonial, we must look further back into the 19th century. In 1816, Elizabeth Fry, concerned by the plight of women prisoners in gaol and during transportation, formed the Quaker group, the British Ladies Society for the Reformation of Female Prisoners.
One of the many improvements the Society implemented was to offer prisoners useful tasks, such as needlecraft, to keep them occupied during their incarceration. The Society donated sewing supplies, including tape, 10 yards of fabric, four balls of white cotton sewing thread, a ball each of black, red and blue thread, black wool, 24 hanks of coloured thread, a thimble, 100 needles, threads, pins, scissors and two pounds of patchwork pieces (or almost ten metres of fabric).
These provisions were carried by the 180 women prisoners on board the Rajah as it set sail from Woolwich, England on 5 April 1841, bound for Van Diemen's Land. When the Rajah arrived in Hobart on 19 July 1841, these supplies had been turned into the inscribed patchwork, embroidered and appliquéd coverlet now known as the Rajah quilt.
It was presented to the Lieutenant-Governor's wife, Lady Jane Franklin, as tangible evidence of the cooperative work that could be achieved under such circumstances.
A project of this size and technical complexity – the quilt measures 325 by 337 centimetres – would have been the result of skilled labour and planned direction.
It seems such a task may have been assumed by a free passenger on board the Rajah for this journey – Miss Kezia Hayter, from the Millbank Penitentiary. On the recommendation of Elizabeth Fry, Hayter had been sent to assist Lady Franklin in the formation of the Tasmanian Ladies' Society for the Reformation of Female Prisoners. Her instigation, supervision and completion of the quilt was a clear demonstration of the success of the shipboard project.
The quilt itself is made using the pieced-medallion style common in the late 18th century, especially in Ireland. It consists of a central panel worked with broderie perse, a term used to describe appliquéd chintz, probably because of its resemblance to Persian embroidery.
It is surrounded by a succession of border strips of printed cloth, appliquéd flowers and flower shapes. The inscription is finely-worked in silk yarn.
From the quilt's 2815 pieces, we can see a cross-section of contemporary textile technology of the period, its patterns, printing techniques and design influences. While we do not know the women who worked on it, we can see there was a considerable variation in their skills. Among the women on that voyage of the Rajah were 15 whose occupations were listed as tailoring or needlework. However, there are small bloodstains still on the quilt – probably from the pricked fingers of some of the less-skilled workers.
At some stage after its arrival in Tasmania the quilt was returned to England, to be presented to Elizabeth Fry. Whether she knew of it before her death four years after its completion, we do not know. Its life and ownership during the following 147 years remains to be revealed.
Textile arts and industry have held societies together for millennia, providing for our needs and stimulating the growth of industry and technology. Despite their fragility, textiles endure because they can be remade with inherited and remembered skills.
The Rajah quilt has miraculously endured the ravages of time and physical decay to provide us with a tangible link to this country's fragile early society and the women who transcended their conditions to work together in the service of art.
The Rajah quilt has captured the imagination of National Gallery of Australia visitors since its acquisition in 1989, and is the most frequently requested object for viewing in the Gallery's Collection Study Room, however as it is too large for the Study Room tables it has, until now, only been able to be shown folded in its box.
Due to its size, fragility and the light-sensitive nature of its materials, the Gallery's textile conservators have advised that the quilt be made available for viewing only once a year.

The Formula 1 World Championship is warming up its engines at Jerez, Spain, where the teams are taking part in a test session from 7-10 February, trying out the new Pirelli tyres. Each car will have available to it the soft, medium and hard variants, as well as wet weather and slick tyres.
In the improbable eventuality of rain at Jerez over the next few days, drivers will also be able to count on the return of the historic Cinturato.
The teams have available to them a maximum of 100 sets of tyres for the tests and can, as part of that quantity, choose which tread compounds to adopt during the four days.
This will be the session when drivers will try out the 'squarer' profiles which, as announced in Abu Dhabi, will ensure extremely high performance and last longer but without renouncing spectacle. The Jerez circuit has many variants, especially ample fast and slow corners, enabling the teams to sample their tyres in the various driving conditions.
The new Pirelli P Zero Silver, the first road car tyre derived from Formula 1 technology, will be presented at Jerez simultaneously.

This propaganda has been refuted. Not even atheists on the site infidels.org take it seriously.
Here is a refutation of this garbage from Christian seminary student.
Some more refutations of the contents of the book.
This "book" is a pathetic propaganda fail that any person who has done any research can easily discount as nonsense.
It is as useful on Christianity as a Jack Chick comic or a FOX documentary is on Islam.
People must be getting pretty desperate to post "sources" like this.
You can still come to Jesus. He shed His blood for you. You can put your faith in Him. Eternity is a very long time to be wrong.

I think Muslims should be more worried of their borrowing from the pagans the worship of the rock in Mecca.

Well if true the I would suggest it was Jesus each time, reincarnated. Also the same could be said of Mohammed, that he was nothing special but blown up to be something holy. Why don't muslims talk about the fact that there were over 50 Qurans, much argument over what the meaning is, the contradictions, the violence, hatred and killing of innocent people advocated just because they don't convert to Islam, protecting Allah's "honor" as if he needed them to, etc etc. Far more barbaric than Christianity. So if Jesus was a fraud, so was Mohammed. If not, then Mohammed was misquided. Either way, Mohammed is secondary. Read "The Quran Dilemma" for example.

Jesus was infact not put to death on the cross but on the stake greek word stauros, as the Quran says he was not crucified. so the only thing that resembelce is the cross wich the Emperor Constantin infiltrated into christianity. If you belive in the Quran you must also belive in the Torah ( Taurat) and Gospel(injeel). and the sura from the Quran came to make us know that the cross was never mentioned in the oldest Gospel scriptures we have, but only a plain stake. The cross comes from sun worship traditions and so does the trinity too. You should believe in all revelations (ayats) from God and not to make any difference by Gods messengers, and if you don't you are truly a dissbeliver!!! one love and unity among God fearing peoples!!

There will be a lot of resistance -- in fact, the idea does not advance, someone has to implement it first (perhaps one of the many "security enhanced" Linux versions out there, such as the NSA's, implements this or a suitable framework for implementing SIDs at the kernel level).
Of course, filesystems too need to support SIDs.
And the old flat UID/GID system has to remain available for backwards compatibility.
In other words, processes need to have multi-component, extensible credentials. And I say they need to have an array of creds, with each thread (or clone()ed process) having an "effective" cred array index.

Wonderful layout!
Now that is really special. You will have to add to the LO each time you get a new charm. Really like you journaling block choice and the frame you have used for the lovely bracelet. Thanks for sharing with us.
I like the paper you used. Very nice layout. Karen
Very pretty LO. Love the way you used the photo mask here. Great job on the charm bracelet- is it a photo or is it scanned? Looks really good! Really nice color combinations and lovely journaling.
Interesting how you framed the bracelet!
Very pretty. I like your journaling card and the word art is very nice.
love how you used the contrasting colors...the red backround of the bracelet and the yellow.... wonderful bracelet and love the mask you used to frame the photo
Love the photo mask and perfect choice with the WA. Simple, clean, and very effective.
Beautiful layout. I love those bracelets where every charm has a special meaning.
Love, love, love the bright background and the word art quote is perfect. I love charm bracelets too.

There is a street in my town named Coon Road. About 4-5 years ago someone decided that was offensive to the black folks. They got the NAACP and a host of others involved. All the rhetoric was about how this name came from days of segregation and in the name of political correctness it should be changed.
The only thing they did not bother to check out was that one of the old time families (and I mean back to the founding of our town) who still lives on the road was named yep you guessed it .the Coons.

Though I detest the neutering of God fearing Anglo Saxom holidays, words and phrases, and the general de-masculination of the language, the PC term which I find most repugnant is "collateral damage". Why the blazes can't the military thought police just say "we killed innocent civilians; women and children and non combatant males of fighting age were accidently killed and maimed"?
War is hell the truth about it needs to be looked squarely in the face, please don't dress it up in a frock and expect me to put it on...and that reminds me, "friendly fire" is not friendly, when you screw up and kill your own, do right by the dead, their families and the survivors and just say you made a tragic mistake and you took the lives of your own or your allies' brave fighting men and women.

Not as quick as the Futura
The Carve is now back by popular demand after being replaced by the Futura four seasons ago. It now sits alongside the Futura at the very top end.
At a glance
The Carve has a slightly more classic stretched outline shape and is a bit narrower than the similar sized Futura. It has a narrow tail with cut-outs on the underside and a narrow rounded nose. Available in either Technora or wood constructions, we have tested here the lighter, stiffer and slightly more expensive wood construction. It has three different footstrap position options, from intermediate to out right, full speed blaster. The fittings are the usual quality high standard that you'd expect from Starboard and it comes with a Drake Freeride 40cm fin.
Ride and handling
Stable at rest the Carve is easy to get around on. It planes very early and accelerates super smoothly up through the gears as it picks up pace. From the straps the ride is very comfortable and lively, with different footstrap positions that are well placed to suit different styles of rider. The Carve is well up there with the fastest boards on test and the best thing is this top performance is very easy to access, so any rider can enjoy and exploit it to its full. It feels controlled in all conditions and is simply a lot of fun to blast about on.
The Carve, as its name suggests, carves superbly. It feels like a smaller board when manoeuvring through turns and loves any size, shape or style of gybe. Although lively in the turn, first timers will appreciate how naturally it can gybe, while experienced riders will love how you can wind it up and crank hard in to carves with maximum speed and never slow down.
Summing up
The Carve delivers freeride high performance to all riders, with easily accessible straight-line speeds and versatile cornering it is one of the best all rounders for sure. If you want to blast fast and turn even faster then this one is for you.
Volume: 121(l) Length: 251 Width: 68
Weight/construction: 8 / Wood
Straps: 3, 2 double inserts for the back strap

Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their sweetness. What to drink: A dry Italian white, such as Pinot Grigio or Soave.
Leave a Review
delicious! excellent flavor!
I followed the recipe as written except I left out the capers (just never been a fan). I used sungold cherry tomatoes from the garden and some fresh basil. It really was delicious and easy. We grilled some italian sausage and it went great with the pasta. I could not agree more with previous reviewers about being minimal with salt before cooking. And mine did not look like the picture (with bright red halves of cherry tomatoes). The sauce seemed too soupy when I took it out of the oven but it thickened up a bit and was very tasty. My husband loved it and he can be picky.
Forgot to add my forks. Definitely 4 forks!!
I have not yet made the entire dish, but I can tell you that the roasted tomato portion of the recipe is fabulous! I made a huge batch of this because we have a huge amount of cherry tomatoes from our garden. I used a mixture of fresh oregano, thyme and basil and maybe just a tad more garlic than requested. The entire house smells heavenly while roasting. This can be used in a variety of ways. I made a pizza with this and Fontina cheese that was incredible. I plan to serve it with crostini as an appetizer, as a side for eggs or other dishes, as a salad component, etc., etc. I'll add the Kalamata's, et. al. and serve with pasta too. Can't wait to see how it freezes.
This is an outstanding recipe. My husband, who is sometimes picky about new dishes, said "This is a keeper." As another reviewer suggested, I also roasted some asparagus along with the tomatoes, which was really good. I used Sweet 100, Sun Gold, and Yellow Pear tomatoes from my garden. I also used fresh basil from the garden as well. I had an 8 ounce package of feta cheese, and just used the whole thing. It was delicious. Will be making it for my next company dinner.
This is hands-down our favorite pasta dish! Don't try making it with anything but fresh summer cherry tomatoes, though - - just won't measure up - - but when they're in season, Wow, this is heavenly!
Delicious with three kinds of cherry tomatoes, basil and feta from the Farmer's Market. Used the Monari Federzoni balsamic. The sauce was still sweet but not too much so. Wasn't using pasta so put the olives and feta right in the sauce. Forgot the pine nuts but it was still great! A definite keeper.
Wow. This was great. It was so sweet from the cherry tomatoes that I fresh picked from my garden. I used aged balsamic...maybe next time I would use a cheaper brand so it wouldn't be as sweet. Basil works if you don't have oregano. Definite repeat. Everyone loved!
Great! I added Shrimp and Asparagus. Mmmmmm good. plan to make often!
Finally! A really good recipe for the overwhelming cherry tomato crop. The flavor is superb, and my picky husband thought so as well. Only change I made was to add fresh basil at the end and top with a little fresh parm.

No matter how I die, even if there is a suicide note; it was murder. Cheers!
yes sir! i just know too many people who have tried to sell or bought cars that have been wrecked and they didn't tell anyone.So derek, are you saying you are going to buy brand new?
and i don't want the hassle of any car repairs for the immediate future. if i'm gonna spend $8,000-10,000 on a good used car, i'll just go up a few thousand more and get a new saturn, that i know is in excellent condition.
well, i am a sucker....... seriously, saturn never, untll recently advertised they were a part of GM. in 1995, when i bought my last car from them, they went out of their way in all the commercials i saw to declair their independence from any of the big three.Dude I can't believe u fell for that!!!!
derek.... just wondering... how's the public transportation system in l.a.? (i believe that's where you live?) i don't mean to be a preachy environmentalist or whatever, but if it's good, you should use it! teehee ... although, i remember hearing that it's pretty crappy in l.a.... true? or not?
oh, and, i don't own a car, but i always thought that saturn was independent, too... so much for a "different" kind of car, eh?
derek's from texas, land of "mass transit?....we don' need no steenkin' mass trasit!"
florida (where i'm from) is the same. land of the pick up's and suv's.
i grew up in nyc, and never owned a car. my sister who still lives there, is in her late 40's and she never even learned how to drive one. no need to
i hate that my life has come to revolve (or is it evolve) around the automobile. (actually two of em, my wife needs one as well), without em, you ain't goin' nowhere.
la got around to installing a subway/light rail line in the 80's and 90's, which prolly helped the mass transit sitch there. when i was living in the city of angels in the summer of 1980, i didn't have a car, and the bus system was atrocious. i resorted to hitch hiking, every wehre i needed to be. not quite sure if i would advocate doing much of that anymore.
major cities never should have gotten rid of the trolly system that was in place from the turn of the century up to the end of the 40's. they really were a convenient way to get around without having to own your own (without having to own your own?, that sounds a tad wierd ) form of transit.

good shot janson is right, i'm in texas, home of the dixie chicks and ann richards! jeditricks is our LA rep. he can comment on their transit system.derek.... just wondering... how's the public transportation system in l.a.?
the bigger cities in texas like dallas and houston have some mass transit. dallas has a light rail that runs in limited areas, and houston is building a train that runs from the astrodome to the new astros ball park. other than that, it's just metro buses, and living out in the 'burbs, they aren't much of a conveniance.
plus, i like the music loud and A/C cold. :happy:
another thing about texas: everything is really spread out. it would take forever to ride a bus around town.
My mom's fiance hit his head on the roof pretty hard, and they both had some minor neck injuries, but it could have been so much worse. Basically, they were sitting on the onramp to the freeway behind other cars (there's a light at this onramp) and this idiot behind them was looking at the police doing something up ahead instead of paying attention to the fact that there were stopped cars ahead of her. She never even stopped, hit the Supra so hard that it flew up and over into the right lane of the freeway which had moving traffic going at around 65 - from a dead stop with the clutch let out, my mom dropped the clutch when they landed and got out of the way of the flow of traffic without having the car stall out thus saving them from getting creamed. Dumb moron who hit them got out of her car and the first thing she said was "what were the police doing?"Originally posted by Caesar
jeez . . . then I'm glad she had the Celica.
I hope there weren't any really serious injuries involved, either?
LA is one of the largest cities on the planet, geographically - it's 40 miles across just in the city and is interrupted by smaller cities, the county which is basically just an extension of the city is way larger. LA's mass transit system is a disaster: too many lines and few with a reasonable, logical route for the bus; the rail system is almost totally useless and costs the federal government $21 per rider per use to suppliment (whereas the bus costs the fed around $1 per rider per use); then there are other cities' bus systems which often require system transfers and scheduling conflitcs. The LA bus system is overcrowded and badly destroying our streets, the rail system is underused and a drain on tax dollars thanks to it going to very few areas people really need, and building it destroyed much of Hollywood's business thus increasing the crime problem. The building of the subway also destroyed part of the ground in a few areas and a public park, not to mention that the water table was threatened and most of the ground under LA has methane pockets which means explosions are a serious threat in some areas.Originally posted by good shot jansen
la got around to installing a subway/light rail line in the 80's and 90's, which prolly helped the mass transit sitch there.

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
8 years (and 1 1/2 months); only 44,000 miles; 0 wrecks; 0 blowouts; a $170 battery replacement; $52 to determine the conditions I reported "couldn't be replicated;" my ol' Saturn ION was led to the car retirement home today.
Being that Saturn isn't a current company anymore, and that I couldn't keep my car outdoors anymore without weird things happening with the alarm, locks, and passenger doors (alternating between the front and rear ones) and cabin lights, plus odd key/ignition and battery issues, I decided that the cost of fixing it might not be better than buying a car from an actual existing company. With some good deals and offers, and firm haggling (plus an appointment to meet, making them work a bit quicker), I now own a 2013 Toyota Camry, in "Clearwater Blue" color. I like it. But I have a car payment again for the first time in about 4 years; that's not great but it's within my budget. I'll have to determine her name after I've driven the car for some time.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Toyota's are good cars. We have an 03 Corrolla that we've owned for about 6 years now and it still runs great. Its given us very little trouble plus the mileage is really good. My brother has a 07? Camry that he likes pretty well too.
I hope you are as pleased as I have been, JT!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – The House Medicaid Committee will hold a hearing in the coming weeks on a broad range of Medicaid issues, including the controversial proposal to expand Medicaid to cover those earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level.
Thus far the House leadership has worked to block any debate of whether the state should participate in the option under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to expand Medicaid to cover those earning up to about $15,000 annually for an individual or about $34,000 for a family of four.
House Medicaid Chair Bobby Howell, R-Kilmichael, said Thursday the hearing will be "about Medicaid in general. Obviously, the expansion will be part of that."
He said he does not have a firm date for the hearing yet because he is still working to line up those who will be presenters.
"I have had numerous requests," he said. "I don't mind openness … We could have two weeks of hearings and not cover all the issues. The issues are evolving with the full enactment of the Affordable Care Act."
Thus far debate on the issue that House Minority Leader Bobby Moak, D-Bogue Chitto has said "could be the biggest in a generation in terms of health care" has been blocked by the House Republican majority. The House leadership has blocked any bills from coming to the floor that could be amended by Democrats to allow the state to participate in the expansion.
But in doing so, all legislation has been killed that would authorize the Division of Medicaid past June 30, which is when it is repealed under existing law.
On Thursday, Gov. Phil Bryant, who has been an outspoken opponent of the expansion, said he believes he can run the agency through executive order if it is repealed.
Bryant said he would prefer not to, but insisted he would not call a special session to deal with the expansion "until we have some agreement (among legislators) on how to move forward.
At this point it will take a two-thirds vote to revive a re-authorization bill or a special session called by the governor.
Bryant also said he has not been swayed by the fact other Republican governors, including most recently Florida Gov. Rick Scott, have opted to participate in the expansion.
Most Mississippi Republican state officials have said they oppose the expansion, at least in part because of the costs to the state. Studies conflict on the costs to the state since the federal government will pay for the bulk of the program.
While there is no re-authorization bill alive, the House on Thursday passed legislation to fund the agency for the coming year.
Rep. Steve Holland, D-Plantersville, said Howell's decision to hold a hearing "is a move in the right direction. We would rather that it had occurred when there was a bill before us. But you have to crawl, walk and then run."
