To say that the Yukon Arctic Ultra 100 miler didn't go exactly as planned is somewhat of an understatement. I guess it comes down to you can't tame the north, but the north can sure as hell tame you.
I had felt reasonably good going into the race with some solid training in the past few months leading up to it. I had been dealing with an achilles tendon injury, but due to some great physio in the months before, felt that it was almost 100%. I was also hoping that having the confidence from doing the race the previous year would help along the way.
Just like last year, arriving in Whitehorse was a magical feeling. There is something about the Yukon that really speaks to me. The mountains, the cold, the snow, the people, what was in store for me, all had me feeling excited about the race. The view of the mountains coming into Whitehorse did little to dampen my enthusiasm.
I had been preparing for really cold temperatures for race day and was somewhat surprised by the unseasonably warm weather that greeted me upon arrival. The good thing would probably be that I wouldn't require as much clothing, however I was a little worried about how soft and slow the trail would be.
The day before the race we had the wonderful experience of seeing the start of the Yukon Quest Dogsled Race. The Quest isn't as well known as the Iditarod Dogsled Race, but is well regarded as being considerably more difficult with tougher terrain, and longer between checkpoints. It was inspiring to see many of the mushers starting the race who you could tell might not have had the money or resources to have the best equipment out there, but they were living their dream and doing the Quest. I got goosebumps.
Race morning arrived and I was itching to get going. I remembered thinking last year that the race really didn't get underway until you got off the river and onto the Dawson Overland Trail after about 50 km. It was apparent early on though that it was going to be very slow going. The temperature on race morning was 0C, the trail was soft and it had been chewed up substantially by the dogs and sleds from the Quest the day before. The snow was very punchy and we had to deal with many overflows. It was a strange feeling to step in water on the river and sink down substantially. Everyone was going to be facing the same problems though, so all you could do is try to manage your effort and not go too hard in the early going.
With the softness of the snow, the heat of the day, and pulling a sled, I soon found myself sweating profusely only a few miles into the race. Sweating is something that you want to avoid at all costs in a winter race, as once the temperatures start to drop later on, you can run into major problems. I did everything I could to moderate my body heat by venting and eventually stripping off clothes. I ended up getting down to running in an unzipped t-shirt and rolled up tights, with no hat or mitts for much of the first 5 hours of the race. No matter how slowly I went, I still could not cool down and was drinking a ton of water.
I continued to try to keep a steady pace and just focused on looking after myself, and not think about racing, as it was far too early. With the soft trail I switched in and out of snowshoes a few times, while trying to find the most efficient means of travel. I saw that the two Italian runners Stefano and Davide were running well ahead and leading, but I was content to let them go.
With ideal conditions during last year's race, it was a bit disheartening to realize how much slower I was running this year and how much harder I was working early on. There are only two checkpoints in the race at the 26 and 59 mile mark. I arrived at the first checkpoint at Rivendell over an hour slower than last year, but was hopeful that trail conditions would improve soon. I took a few extra minutes at the checkpoint to switch out of my socks that were drenched in sweat, change into dry clothing, eat some soup and fill up my water.
Heading back out on the course left me feeling a little concerned about the first 5 hours I had just completed and what that took out of me, but I was also excited about the most beautiful section of the course that I was about to see. With the marathon competitors now having completed their race, things got a little sparse for company, but that's the way I like it. I enjoy the time on the trail and being able to think and enjoy nature.
Maybe I was feeling sorry for myself for going so slow, and what was inevitably ahead, or maybe I just wanted to talk to someone, but I had this strong desire to talk to family. I was thrilled to discover that we still had cell reception, so I did something that I didn't think that I'd ever do…I sent a couple of text messages during the race. I sent Brennan and Heather a quick message and like any teenager they were quick with replies that boosted my spirits more than they'll ever know. I was also able to get in touch with Sara briefly, and hearing back from her put me in a really good headspace to get on with the race.
Arriving at the Dawson Overland Trail is magical. The view of the surrounding mountains is spectacular as you head into the trees and narrow trail. To my surprise, the footing of the trail had firmed up a little and I was actually able to run at a slightly faster pace than I had been most of the day. My stomach wasn't feeling particularly well at this point, but I was continuing to hydrate and fuel as best as I could. The drawback to turning off the river is that you now hit some long climbs. The hills weren't particularly steep, but they went for a long time….90 minutes up, 90 minutes down, then almost 4 hours gradually up. There were a few steeper sections and a couple of times my pulk almost slid backwards when I unclipped to get more food and gear out of my sled bag.
Things started to get really rough on this section for me. My stomach was now rebelling more than it ever has in a race. It's not uncommon for me to have stomach issues and puke on occasion in ultras, but I have never had GI issues…until now. Not the most fun thing to deal with at the best of times, but during a race like this, was considerably more challenging. I knew that I needed to keep fueling and hydrating, but anything that I took in would either come right back out or go right through me.
I marched on with the short term goal of getting to the Dog Grave Lake checkpoint at mile 59. I thought that if I got there, maybe a brief stop to warm up and sip on some soup might help. Getting to Dog Grave Lake seemed to take an eternity, but I was beyond relieved when I finally arrived. I unhooked from my pulk and went into the tent to get soup and water and change into drier clothes.
The temperature was starting to drop now and I was moving very slow and unable to generate much body heat. I must have spent over 30 minutes at the checkpoint trying to take care of myself, before coaxing myself back out onto the trail. The thought of curling up and sleeping for a few hours rest in front of the campfire was appealing, but I just really wanted to keep moving and try to collect more miles. I left Dog Grave Lake and tried to run as much as I could, but it wasn't too long before my woozy stomach had me stopped along the side of the trail again.
I'm not exactly sure how far I got past Dog Grave Lake before realizing that things were getting worse. For a moment, I had considered returning to the modest comfort of the checkpoint, but realized that if I did, I expect that my race would be over and I would not end up finishing. In my mind, the only option was to bivy along the trail, get a little sleep and hope that my stomach settled down.
With the Yukon Quest Dogsled Race having run the trails the day before, there was a lot of straw where teams had taken a break. I decided that this was going to be a suitable spot for me, so looked for an area with a large amount of straw to bed down on for some rest. I quickly pulled out my sleeping bag, put on my down jacket, pants and booties and hunkered down for some rest. I made sure to keep my hydration pack and shoes in the bottom of my sleeping bag to prevent them from freezing.
A few people went by as I was settling down and asked if I was alright. That's the great thing about this race is that you look out for each other and help if needed, as next time you could be one needing the help. It was tough knowing that Sara, friends and family would be watching my SPOT satellite tracker from home and not see it moving, but there was nothing else I could do. I didn't set an alarm as I figured I would drift in and out of sleep. The temperature was getting colder, but I was comfortable, possibly too comfortable as I didn't realize until later that I had been sleeping for almost 4 hours. I woke up still feeling very weak, but my stomach wasn't quite as bad as earlier. The toughest thing was hauling my butt out of the sleeping bag while it was still dark in the morning, but realizing that by the time I potentially finished the race it would be getting dark again at night, so I'd better get moving.
Again, I considered briefly going back to Dog Grave Lake and dropping from the race, but I really didn't want to not finish this race, probably more so than any other race I've done. My thoughts had now shifted though from thinking of this as a race to looking at things more so as an expedition, which momentarily helped to put a positive spin on things in my mind.
Heading off down the trail I was feeling very weak and still not able to keep much food in me initially. I tried not to look at my watch to figure out how long I'd been out, or how long I still had left to go, but it was difficult not to. The lowest point probably came when I realized that at this time last year, I was already at the finish line. However, I still had 50 kilometers to go to reach the finish in Braeburn and I was moving very slow. It was then that I lost it, broke down and wept like a baby. That was one of the many moments of deep despair that I had during the last third of the race. Just put one foot in front of the other and you'll get there I kept telling myself…eventually.
Last year when I was running well, I remember laughing at all the gear that I took, and even questioned if I should have lightened the load this year. During those long final hours, I was very glad to have everything that I had though, and could have used more of certain things.
As bad as I felt after my bivy, it never really got any worse. I felt I reached as low as I could, and there was something about that knowledge that was comforting. I continued trying to sneak some food into my upset stomach. I also had to stop regularly and melt snow for drinking water, which is something that I wouldn't have needed to do had things been going well.
The one thing that I did try to take out of those final daylight hours on the second day was enjoying the beauty of trail. Much of the trail I was on during this time I had seen during night time last year. There were many occasions when I just stopped to rest, sitting on my sled bag and looked out at the surrounding beauty. I wouldn't say that I was necessarily enjoying this, however it was nice to take a mental snapshot (camera was frozen) of this to remember for later.
There were a number of times that race volunteers checked in on me on their snowmobiles and asked how I was doing. I'd usually mumble, 'not well, but I'm okay'. Each time after they left, I would weep again and wonder why in hell I didn't ask them to pull me from the course and take me to the end.
As nightfall came the second time during the race, I began to get very cold and a little scared. I hadn't really planned on requiring a headlamp and batteries for two nights and I was worried I'd have enough light to find my way. Luckily, I remembered the extra headlamp I had brought, just in case.
There is a long stretch of trail with tall evergreens on both sides that seems to go on forever. I'd asked the last race snowmobile patroller how much longer, and he said eight kilometers to Braeburn Lake; which meant only another few km's past that to the finish. While eight kilometers doesn't seem that long when you're moving well, it still meant that I may have a couple of hours still to go. I could however get my head around this and for the first time in a long time, I felt that I might just finish this thing afterall.
I hadn't seen anyone for a long time, so was surprised to come up behind Ignacio Prat from Spain on the trail. He had stopped to make a snack and hot drink, and asked if I'd like to join him. I wish that I'd had been in the place to enjoy this thoughtful gesture, however I told him that I really just needed this to be done, and kept on going.
Finally, I spotted the steep downhill that goes out onto Braeburn Lake. Crossing the lake was very cold and my feet were really feeling it at this point. Both the lake and the final few kilometer climb to Braeburn Lodge were taking much longer than I remember. I was surprised too how steep some of the hills were as I had to go on hands and knees up one section. I was amazed to think that a dogteam could manage this section of trail.
The sight of Braeburn Lodge and the finish line was one of overwhelming relief. This time I wept with tears of joy with finally putting an end to this long ordeal. It was so different from last year when I had this huge sense of joy. This time it was all about just being done.
Looking back now 10 days after the race, I've had a bit of time to reflect on things. The big question was why did I have GI issues? While I suspect there was some meat in the soup, I don't think that was the problem. I just think that I got pretty dehydrated in the first 5 hours of the race in the heat and tough pulling conditions and was not able to recover properly from that.
The race certainly didn't go as planned (over 11.5 hours slower than last year), and not something I'd want to repeat, however there were a few things that I did get out of the experience. One thing was that I had the chance to bivy on the trail and sleep during the race. This is something that I've been a little concerned about doing in the past, but now that I've done it can see being able to do it again if/when I decide to attempt a longer version of the race.
I guess the main thing that I got out of this year's Yukon Arctic Ultra was that I didn't quit when I was feeling like I had no other option. This was a great lesson for me to see what I was capable of both physically, and especially, mentally. I'm sure that this will help in races to come.
It was by far NOT my best performance in a race, but one that I'm possibly most proud of for gutting it out. Definitely the toughest thing I've ever done.
Time to start thinking about what's next!

You shouldn't have to live in fear of facing your utility bills each month at the workplace! One of the most effective ways to conserve energy is to cut down on the amount of electricity, natural gas and other fuels we use while trying to bring the temperatures in our office buildings to comfortable levels. According to Energy Star, an Environmental Protection Agency program that advises businesses and individuals on eco-friendly energy savings, up to 30 percent of the energy generated to heat, cool and light the average commercial building is wasted.
Weatherproofing your doors, windows and skylights is the best way to make sure unconditioned air is not seeping in to or out of your office. And while weatherproofing can help you save on your utility bill, it can also put a dent in your annual taxes by applying your improvements toward tax deductions offered by Uncle Sam.

Does anybody have any tips on where to go? There are a couple public areas along the South fork of the republican and some walk in near Beaver Creek that I was looking into. How is the Walk in hunting for turkey in this area also?

text: Migration Info This western counterpart to the eastern Baltimore Oriole moves rapidly up the west coast, often reaching the California-Oregon border by mid-April. In the easterly portions of its range, arrivals are up to two weeks later than at the same latitude along the coast. During the winter, this species is most numerous along the Pacific slope of Mexico, where it feeds heavily on nectar. The migratory characteristics of the Bullock's Oriole are poorly understood; the birds are believed to move primarily at night in small flocks. Mature males arrive first, followed by females and first-year males.

Sharon combines her vision with her experience in real estate to capture the buyer completely and leave them the with the problem of trying to replicate what they saw, after the sale. Highly recommended.
I have no hesitation in engaging Sharon from Style with The House of Strauss as Sharon had transformed our front garden which now looks amazing and we had a space at the side of our building which was transformed to a BBQ and sitting area for our customers.

Taylor reflects on NCAA record breaking performance
After playing one season at UW-La Crosse, former Black River Falls standout Jack Taylor transferred to Grinnell College in Iowa. And it only took three games with the Pioneers for Taylor to make NCAA history.
"I think basketball is a sport where you can be a little creative and that is what this program is about. We increase the pace of play. Our philosophy is to feed the hot hand."
Heading into Grinnell's game against Faith Baptist Bible, Taylor had anything but the hot hand, shooting 27-percent from the field through his team's first two games.17520296
"We played in a Wartburg tournament this past weekend and I shot the ball pretty poorly so my teammates and coaches wanted to get me going."
Taylor responded with 58 points in just the first half. At that point the game plan changed from getting Taylor going, to allowing Taylor to break the nearly 60-year old college record of 113-points.
"Coach at halftime actually told me and he said, 'We're going to go for it if you continue to shoot like this.'"
Taylor now holds the NCAA single game points scored record with 138. And that wasn't the only change he made to the record books.
"I know that I shot 108 shots which is a record. I shot 71 three's which is a record. And I had 27 three's made which is a record."
And it didn't take long for the national media attention to focus on the five-foot-ten sophomore.
"My family drove down from Wisconsin and I wasn't able to talk to them for too long, they were pulling me for interviews right away with ESPN and Sportscenter. It was pretty sobering when I woke up and saw that Kobe (Bryant) had talked about my game, and he's my favorite player growing up and that was really cool."

Ewerton Teixeira Set to Fight in His Third MMA Bout
- Written by Dave Walsh
In a way, good for Ewerton Teixeira for finding himself a home in Mixed Martial Arts in Brazil, as Teixeira is a solid fighter and a down-to-earth guy that was on the K-1 circuit for many years without earning a ton of respect. Of course, it is a loss for the Kickboxing world and a wonder that no one has scooped him up yet, as he could legitimatize, at least partially, K-1's Heavyweight division at this point and be a great asset to Glory. Of course, he just might not care about Kickboxing anymore and be happy with Mixed Martial Arts.
No matter what, on April 27th he has his third professional MMA bout set against Eduardo Pezao. To top it off, he is apparently scheduled to fight Bob Sapp in August, which only makes things all the more comical. [Source]

Heres my longest hunt. It should have been shorter but I made several mistakes it lasted a day and a half of solid hunting.
A few years back I found a gobbling bird that was roosted deep into some big woods couple miles from any road. I got within I'd guess about 150 yards which was to far but at the time I thought it was close enough. I called way to much to him when he was still roosted and he flew down towards me then went the other way with his hens. He answered every call I made and he would get closer to me several times thoughtout the day. I followed him all day and never got close enough for a shot although I called him pretty close 2 times. Close enough that if it would have been open he'd of been in range I'm sure. I roosted him that night. Next morning he flew down off the roost and strutting past me at less than 30 yards but I never got a shot in the thick woods he had several hens with him. I stuck within ear shot of him because he would gobbled alot. Mid morning he stopped gobbling and I thought I spooked him. After about an hour of not gobbling. I about gave up hope and then I heard him gobble in the same spot I heard him last. I answered and he came right in like he was on a string. His hens weren't with him. I'm pretty sure he and his hens got seperated and he was desperate to get back with them and he heard my calling and came running.

Joel and others interested......:
Couple of thoughts come to mind for your upcoming trip.....
Suggest you keep monitoring http://relaunch.reel-time.com/fishwire/fla-keys/update.asp for conditions and info on Florida keys fishing.
Adam Barr, of Orlando, FL (firstname.lastname@example.com), last March sent a thread out over the bandwidth regarding fly fishing (wading) the Florida Keys. He suggests when in Key West looking to wade fish, to come back out US 1 about six miles, onto Big Coppitt Key. Turn right by the big Circle K. Follow the road through Geiger Key and onto Boca Chica Key. There's a narrow beach there where it's easy to wade. There may be some noise from the Naval Air Station, but it's still a pleasant place to fish.
I have also heard, but have not confirmed, that there is a wadable area on Key West just past Smathers Beach, near the
commercial airport.
If in the area you may want to contact the nice folks at The Saltwater Angler, a great shop in downtown Key West for additional info, flies, guides, etc.
Also, and not having been there as well, I have in my journal notes to wade fish a great looking flat on Big Pine Key. Directions: Just as you enter Big Pine Key, take your first left, Long Beach Rd. 2-3 miles down the road, you'll see the flat on your right. Also there is supposedly a nice flat adjacent to Rte 1 on the ocean side of the North end of Missouri key.
Look up http://www.flyfishamerica.com/ and check out an article about bonefishing in the Southeast section. Farrow Allen, who I met back in his New Hampshire days describes a lot of wading places between Islamorada and Marathon. Farrow's a stand-up, tell-it-like-it-is guy and I respect his suggestions as he describes spots west of Marathon, like Ohio Key and Missouri Key, where there are good-looking shallows for wading.
If you can get a canoe or small boat to row out on your own, you might have fun at the Bogie Channel between Big Pine Key and No Name Key. It's a bit too deep to wade there. And once the sunset comes along, you'll probably see some of those gentle little Key deer, too!
Or...as Art Nudell (firstname.lastname@example.com) suggests, you may consider hiring a shore guide to show you the spots; then you can fish on your own. Try Dennis O'Brien , a "Lefty Impersonator" , or ask Alan Finkelman, who Nudell says is a really knowledgeable guide with a boat. Maybe you can ask
him for a wader's eye view of the Keys?? Take notes if you go out with him as his specialty is flyfishing, but he's equally adept at light spinning tackle.
I've heard that Bahia Honda State Park has good wade fishing. You'll be subject to the opening and closing of the park and the entrance fee, Like $6-7.00, but is said to be good for wade fishing. A past issue of Saltwater Fly Fishing Magazine had a whole article on wade fishing the lower keys. Also, there's a great article on a Florida Flats Guide's
recommendation for tailing, mudding, and cruising bonefish by Capt. Bob Rodgers, Saltwater Fly Fishing, Feb/Mar 1998. Let me know if you need the three patterns he recommends.
Of course, the best references you will find are those right here on the list. I never cross the Florida border mitenzee rods and reels in hand unless I hear first from Dave Allerton, L.J., or Jerry Goldsmith. Others include as you may know Don Phillips, Joe Libeu, Tammy, Jerry Goldsmith,
Gary Meyer, Eric Young, Martin Bowers, and Terry "Sunfish" Kirkpatrick, My "Go To Guy" for the salt on all other info and locations is the "Fish Vet"-Aaron Adams. He knows more about the salt, flies, tying, winds, tides, etc. for a guy his age than most of us will achieve in a lifetime and will
probably enlighten you as well on the Keys! I'm sure there are a few other Listers in Florida and across the country who will have info but who's names escape me at the moment.
For easy reading by the way try: Martin Smithson's book FISHING GUIDE to the UPPER KEYS & FLORIDA BAY.
Don't forget you need a fishin' license for the salt. It can be ordered now by phone at 1-888-FISH-FLORIDA and this may save you some running around time looking for a license.
If you decide against hauling the camper there are many low rate sleeperies in the area. There are far too many places to list and they change their rates too often to keep track of. The best bet is to get a AAA Tour Book of Florida or call the Key West Chamber of Commerce (305-294-2587). There is an 800 number you can try at (800) FLA-KEYS. I think the Chamber of Commerce, possibly out of Key Largo, provides information on all of the Keys. Get on to this as they will provide plenty of info for mamma and the kids to do while you escape out for another day fish'in!!
Last of all take a look at http://www.florida-southwest.com/fish/flyhome.htm . Link on over to Flyfishing and then on to Don Phillip's Basic Guide to Southwest Florida saltwater fishing. This is a great tutorial on fly selections for the Keys.
Best of luck friend. Great job once again this past year with FF@ Archives and much appreciated....holler at me if you make it down there in March as I might be right behind you the next month!

RE:Wading in or near Key West?
I'll look up Jeffery Cardenas in the Key West Flyshop. I haven't talked to him in a long time. He is THE flyshop in Key West. If you look him up, tell him I sent you. (I was a contributing editor for VFS at the time).
There's also a gentleman who drops by the fly shop quite a bit. He is close to the guys at WorldWide Anglers in Islamorada. I'll try him too.
Stay tuned...
RE:Wading in or near Key West?
Dave -
I did this a few years back, and had success on two consecutive "business trips". There's quite a bit to say on this topic but here's my spin:
Key West proper has less access than the other keys up the road a ways. I caught bones at Bahia Honda State Park (south flat), and nameless flats near the Green Turtle Inn sign up which I believe is between Matecumbe and Islamorada. There are also other flats accessible from shore on Duck Key and the various other spots along rte 1.
Adam Albino just went down there last month... I'll ask him to answer your post with his fresh memory.
I bought a longbill hat with flaps after the first day, when my topside ear lobes were fried and the standard brim was too short.
I also wore scuba boots with a thick sole, preferable edges re-inforced. Shuffle your feet for stingrays, which like to curl over like a scorpion and hit the stinger in the top of your foot. If you keep an eye out and shuffle you're OK.
Good polarized lenses are a must.
Flats shirts aren't just a fashion statement - you need long sleeves with a light quick-dry material unless you have that Cherokee tan like BobD gets.
This story might help... first bone on my own:
Bonefish Bob told me how. Walk out on the flat at the Green Turtle Inn sign 100 feet, and turn around toward shore. Watch for tails. Just as I am thinking I am an idiot and he has gotten the tourist to stand out there, I see a tail - and another, and another... coming right at me! Talk about nervous... I cast right on the lead fish... ZOOOOOOOOMMMM, about 6 fish take off for Cuba.
Got smarter over time. Laid the crazy charlie in the sand (white) patches between turtle grass and broken coral (dark) patches in front of the fish's direction. When the fish was coming on to my patch, I'd strip and then wunk! SCreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeammmmm!!!!! Hang on baby!
Don't need drugs down there, it's narcotic just looking at the scenery. Top it off with a yellowtail snapper fillet, conch chowder, and a key lime pie. Slip in a margarita if you get a chance, but if you're single and like the night life make sure you look real careful at friendly women. They might not be women!

Wading in or near Key West?
Hi All,
Getting sent to Key West next month for business, won't have much time and can't commit the money or time for a guide. I've been told wading is limited to impossible in KW, is that true? I will have a rental car so I can make some quick journies. The hotel I am at does have a beach, but I suspect it's not too fishy and I'll only be able to use it in the AM most likely...
Any help would be appreciated..

Airbus' growing presence in the Middle East – both in terms of market share and industrial cooperation – will be highlighted during the 2011 Dubai Airshow with the company's high-profile participation at this five-day event.
With more than 770 aircraft booked in the region by Airbus, most major Middle East carriers have selected the company's jetliners to grow and modernise their fleets, acquiring aircraft that range from the single-aisle A320 Family to the 21st century A380 flagship.
Some of the key Middle East airlines with Airbus aircraft in their fleets are Emirates, Qatar Airways, Saudi Arabian Airways and Etihad – whose Etihad Crystal Cargo division was the first to receive the new A330-200F freighter.
To provide rapid response and close access for area customers' support needs, Airbus has located its regional material and logistics centre in the Dubai Airport Free Zone. The company's commercial activities in this part of the world – from marketing, sales and contracts to customer relations and customer support – are managed through its Airbus Middle East subsidiary, which also is headquartered at the Dubai Airport Free Zone.
Industrial partnerships are part of Airbus' Middle East strategy. In coordination with its parent company EADS, work packages for the assembly and production of Airbus aircraft components are being assigned to Mubadala Aerospace in activity that includes the provision of assistance and consultancy in engineering, research, development, training and education.
Additionally, EADS will expand its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities through an agreement with Abu Dhabi Aircraft Technologies that is to accelerate this Mubadala-owned company's entry into the Airbus global MRO network.

Colored by lights at night, an incredible amount of water plunges continuously over the sheer rock wall of Niagara Falls. If you stand close to the falls, the roar of the water is almost deafening, and the rushing water drenches you with spray. No wonder Niagara Falls was once named one of the seven natural wonders of the world! It's amazing how such a common substance—water—can be so impressive.
Water and Other Liquids
Water is the most common substance on Earth, and most of it exists in the liquid state. A liquid is one of four well-known states of matter, along with solid, gas, and plasma states. The particles of liquids are in close contact with each other but not as tightly packed as the particles in solids. The particles can slip past one another and take the shape of their container. However, they cannot pull apart and spread out to take the volume of their container, as particles of a gas can. If the volume of a liquid is less than the volume of its container, the top surface of the liquid will be exposed to the air, like the vinegar in the bottle seen in the Figure below.
Q: Why does most water on Earth's surface exist in a liquid state? In what other states does water exist on Earth?
A: Almost 97 percent of water on Earth's surface is found as liquid salt water in the oceans. The temperature over most of Earth's surface is above the freezing point (0°C) of water, so relatively little water exists as ice. Even near the poles, most of the water in the oceans is above the freezing point. And in very few places on Earth's surface do temperatures reach the boiling point (100°C) of water. Although water exists in the atmosphere in a gaseous state, water vapor makes up less than 1 percent of Earth's total water.
Surface Tension and Viscosity
Two unique properties of liquids are surface tension and viscosity. Surface tension is a force that pulls particles at the exposed surface of a liquid toward other liquid particles. Surface tension explains why water forms droplets, like the water droplet that has formed on the leaky faucet pictured in the Figure below. You can learn more about surface tension at this URL: http://io9.com/5668221/an-experiment-with-soap-water-pepper-and-surface-tension
Water drips from a leaky faucet.
Viscosity is a liquid's resistance to flowing. You can think of it as friction between particles of liquid. Thicker liquids are more viscous than thinner liquids. For example, the honey pictured in the Figure below is more viscous than the vinegar. You can learn more about viscosity at this URL: http://chemed.chem.wisc.edu/chempaths/GenChem-Textbook/Viscosity-840.html
Q: Which liquid do you think is more viscous: honey or chocolate syrup?
A: The viscosity of honey and chocolate syrup vary by brand and other factors, but chocolate syrup generally is more viscous than honey.
- A liquid is a state of matter in which particles can slip past one another and take the shape of their container. However, the particles cannot pull apart and spread out to take the volume of their container.
- Surface tension is a force that pulls particles at the exposed surface of a liquid toward other liquid particles. Viscosity is a liquid's resistance to flowing.
- liquid: State of matter that has a fixed volume but not a fixed shape.
Table below shows the viscosity of water at different temperatures. Use the data in the table to answer the questions below. The meaning of the units of viscosity is not necessary to appreciate the relationship between temperature and viscosity.
|Temperature [°C]
|Viscosity [mPa•s]
- Describe in words what the data in the table show.
- If you were to draw a line graph of temperature and viscosity, what would it look like? Make a rough sketch to show how it would look. (Assume that the x-axis represents temperature and the y-axis represents viscosity.)
- Write a hypothesis to explain the relationship between temperature and viscosity of water.
- State the properties of matter in the liquid state.
- What property of liquids explains why water beads up on the car surface pictured in the Figure below?
- Predict which liquid has greater viscosity: olive oil or motor oil (SAE 40). Then do online research to find out if your prediction is correct.

K-1 World MAX 2013 Quarter Final in Gran Canaria Live Results
- Written by Dave Walsh
We are live! K-1 World MAX 2013 Quarter Final 2 in Gran Canaria is airing right now. Head over to the main page and check out up top where you'll find a link to watch the event live. As always, we'll be providing you with live results from the event, so stay tuned.
- Moisés Baute (R1 - KO) Tofan Pirani - Well, this happened.
- K-1 MAX Quater Final: Enriko Kehl (R3 - UD) Maximo Suárez - Kehl just put on a clinic here against a game Maximo. Maximo was urged on by the crowd's chants in the third round, but it was too little, too late. Kehl was just on a different level.
- K-1 MAX Quater Final: Sung Hyung Lee (R3 - SD) Elam Ngor - This was a close, technical fight. Very entertaining with Ngor landing a few low blows and getting warned a few times.
- Juanma Suarez (R3 - SD) David De Bejear - This was a late replacement fight and left little impression. Both guys were not in the best shape and were kind of just winging shots.
- Alejandro Rodríguez (R2 - KO) Tural Bayramov - Tural dropped Alejandro early in round one and the doctors even had to stop and check on him, but man, did Alejandro come back with a vengeance in round two. Knee to the ribs followed by a few punches put Tural out of action.
- Chad Sudgen (R1 - KO) Jorge Falcon - Sugden landed a nice shot to get a standing 8 count early on, but Falcon recovered. Falcon was falling right into Sugden's trap as the British fighter was able to get him into a corner and swarm with a 1-2-1 combo that put him down and out.

One of the most wonderful things about working for Crushable is that I'm the leading expert among my friends on One Direction and The Wanted. I'm days away from being able to name all ten boys and tell you who matches up to who in *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys. While I'm 99% sure that Harry Styles is our new Justin Timberlake, I can't figure out who matches up to Joey Fatone (or Joey Fat-One as we used to say in 7th grade).
The more I study the magic that is One Direction, the more I come across great One Direction memes. Or 1D memes as they're probably known in within the 1D family. So procrastinate the week starting in less than 24 hours by checking out my favorites.

N+1 Singer - Uncovered Gems - Speed Dating Lunch - A Famous Five for the future?
12 Apr 17
On Friday we hosted our third "speed dating" lunch with the management of five very interesting and contrasting companies not under our formal coverage: Be Heard, Byotrol, Gfinity, Oxehealth and Plant Impact. Each company gave a concise and punchy overview of its business and investment case to a group of fund managers, before rapid fire Q&A. Below we summarise our thoughts on each company with more details inside the note, plus some relevant slides. We believe that all five companies are well-managed and well worth a closer look - we intend to repeat this efficient and popular format for engaging with management teams.

Non Life Insurance - Growing impact of hacks on share prices
18 Apr 17
Our November 2016 Cyber report flagged the growing impact of cyber attacks on quoted companies, noting that Yahoo's breach would inevitably negatively impact Verizon's offer price, which it did. A report by CGI and Oxford Economics has found that, to date,severe hacks on UK companies permanently reduced their share price by 1.8% - or approximately a £120m hit to MCap for a FTSE 100 firm. With GDPR coming into effect next year, we expect more headlines. That has got to be good for cyber insurers and cyber security firms.
N+1 Singer - Small-cap quantitative research - Growth style screen revamp and 10 focus stocks
06 Apr 17
We have reviewed the performance of our consistent growth screen since the previous refresh on 27 September 2016 and revamped the selection parameters to focus more on forecast sales and EPS growth going forward. In the period under review the consistent growth style screen outperformed the small-cap benchmark by c. 6% and underperformed the microcap index by a similar amount. Interestingly, although growth doesn't always seem to be defensive as might be expected, however it appears right to buy growth on dips caused by or coincident with wider market volatility. In the new forecast growth screen we take a close look at 10 focus stocks. We will monitor performance and refresh it in three to four months time.

Baron King of Lothbury, also known as Mervyn King former Governor of the Bank of England, is married to Barbara, a Finnish lady. She was his girlfriend in 1970 but distance and steam-driven telecoms conspired to keep them apart. Barbara went on to marry someone else and divorce - before being reunited with King in the late 1990s. They married in 2007 and King, who had never had children, was presented with two step-children and four grandchildren; and, in a Sunday Times interview, he quoted the Finnish apothegm "Grandchildren are the dessert of life".

Middle School | 6-8
In the middle school years, students are guided through an exceptional integrated curriculum of math, science, humanities, world languages, sports, and the arts; all of which serve to foster independent critical thinking and personal initiative. At Santa Fe Waldorf School the developing adolescent is shown the value of strong human connections and powerful artistic expressions as they craft their own sense of self identity.
Get a glimpse into our Middle School program below, or schedule a visit with Admissions Coordinator, Brent Poole | 505-467-6431
Sixth Grade
"Strength from stones I'm given." Grade 6 marks the dawn of adolescence and the beginning of the struggle between light and darkness. An important change in the quality of the child's consciousness occurs at this time. An initial dawning of intellectual consciousness. At around age 12, the child's feeling perception passes over to the world of ideas. This feeling approach to thinking is the first step toward critical independent thinking and judgment. As always, the curriculum seeks to meet and foster these emerging capacities.

- Independent study and report writing
- Ancient history (Roman Republic and Empire) and the Middle Ages
- Speech and Drama
- Mathematics: Business math, percentages
- Geometric form drawing using precision instruments

Seventh Grade
"In heights of world without…" Looking outward while feeling inward, the adolescent student lives an emotional life filled with expressiveness and forcefulness. Questioning authority and challenging all that is the students seek to assert their independence and find their place among their peers. It is no accident, then, that The Renaissance is a theme that underlies the Grade 7 curriculum. Adolescence often typifies a looking back in order to understand what lies ahead. Harking back to the Renaissance ideals of Truth and Beauty offers a healthy alternative to the critical attitudes of typical students of this age.

Eighth Grade
"In depths of soul within…" An examination of the 8-year cycle of the elementary student can be compared to the musical movement of notes through the scale. Using the octave as metaphor, the Grade 8 curriculum recapitulates and enhances all that has come before, and yet like that eighth note in the musical scale, it stands as its own foundation for the next step forward in life. It is a big step, and the year's curriculum appropriately involves aspects of Revolution—through history, science and literature.

Also, Yeardley's singing was unbearable, I fear time has caught up to her singing voice.

Hugs Are The Best Medicine
Researchers are learning more about how physical contact contributes to overall health.
Now, That's What I Wanted
Have you ever wondered why a hug from your mother can be the best hug in the world? Researchers have found out that this feeling is very common and isn't all in your head. It seems the bonds we form early in life affect us in many ways for a very long time.

No Duh's and Head Scratchers
If you need help scratching a mental itch, use the resources below:
- How did the bombing of London during World War II create the stage for a natural experiment? How did John Bowlby take advantage of this situation? Do you think this sort of experiment would have been ethical to conduct if the world situation hadn't created the opportunity? Why or why not?
- How did the behavior of weaned monkeys suggest to researchers that there was something going on between parent and offspring besides nutrition? Can you think of similar behavior you have witnessed with humans?
- How do you think natural selection has contributed to attachment among humans? How do you think this mechanism is acting to reinforce this instinct? Can you think of any way to test your hypothesis?

By Hank Wiesner/Southern Sentinel
RIPLEY – A Pontotoc man accused of fatally shooting Tippah Deputy DeWayne Crenshaw just over two years ago faces an May 6 trial date, District Attorney Ben Creekmore said this week.
The district attorney said the location of the trial and other logistical questions remain to be worked out. He hopes some of those questions will be answered later this month.
Franklin Fitzpatrick, then 26, will be tried for capital murder during a one- week special court setting. He has entered a plea of not guilty, and has been held without bond since the shooting. Judge Andrew Howorth will preside over the trial.
Fitzpatrick is represented by the Office of Capital Defense and attorney Kelsey Rushing, and also by attorney Josh Turner of Oxford.
Deputy Crenshaw was fatally shot in the line of duty on a cold, dry night about 4 a.m. Friday, Dec. 3, 2010, while responding to a pre-dawn disturbance call in a rural area at 4860 County Road 500.
Fitzpatrick was arrested following the predawn shooting, and indicted in 2011 for capital murder in Crenshaw's death.
Following the shooting, the Legislature passed what's known as the DeWayne Crenshaw bill. It outlaws chemicals used in bath salts that can be used to get high.
Crenshaw was a retired U. S. Army Master Sergeant who served as a Ranger. He earned two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star in two tours of Vietnam.
Due to his slight stature, he also worked as a "tunnel rat" in that war. He went into enemy passageways deep underground, armed with little more than a flashlight and a gun, mapping out the passageways and often taking on the enemy.
After retirement, he and his wife and son, Adam, lived in a remote portion of Alaska for a number of years.
The family later relocated to this area, and he went to work for the Tippah Sheriff's Department as a part time deputy and jailor.
He wanted to become a full-time deputy, and to do that, had to become certified. He attended the basic officers training course at 57, managed 10-mile runs there in under an hour, and graduated among the top 10 of his class.
Recalled his widow, Jane Crenshaw: "DeWayne was a true child of God, but also a kidder with a great sense of humor. He often said that he was once six feet tall, but 500 parachute jumps had reduced him to his height of 5 feet 5 inches."

Classic Huell! "Do you own a cat?"Last night just before bed KCET aired an episode of Visiting with Huell Howser, he was in a donut shop I think in OC and absolutely enthralled in watching some teenager flip chocolate twist donuts, and he was entirely genuine about it. Check out this article that Tom Lennon (The State, Reno 911) wrote for KCET about Huell's passing, it's really good: http://www.kcet.org/shows/tvtalk/tv-...-internet.html There's several more articles there which are also moving in their own way.
I keep forgetting how talented a mind Andy Richter really is, he doesn't get nearly enough chance to shine, but reading this article he wrote about Huell actually brought a tear to my eye:
Oh, and check out this event, apparently the city of LA will be putting all flags at half mast on the 15th during a sunset salute to honor Huell Howser, that's an amazing deal when you consider how big and varied the city is, I may go to this event, I'm free on Tuesday.
Anyway, Huell Howser is an amazing and tragically unique person - we could surely use more like him. I had looked up his history for my grandparents a few years ago and they enjoyed hearing about who he was, but ultimately no matter how fascinating his story it was more important that who he was made it possible for him to do what he did that mattered most to them. Apparently Huell passed away from cancer, he didn't want a memorial or funeral or anything of that nature. He left his papers and the entirety of his show to Orange County's Chapman University, I read Huell did so not because he had a personal connection of any sort with the school but because when he went to the school's city of Orange to shoot an episode of the show on Orange, the president of the college wasn't able to meet with him for the show and sent a personally written letter of apology to Huell which impressed the man so much that an important university president would take the time to send a personal letter over something so trivial that he felt it was a place of character, so he started cutting at their studio and then donated his works including the shows to the school a year and a half ago. Chapman now has the Huell Howser Archive.

From time to time my interest in prayers and litany for worship has led me into song, at least the words if not some efforts at a melody. Scott Taylor, our Director of Music and Worship Arts at our church, asked me to write some new words for Easter to the familiar tune of HYFYRDOL. With Sylvia's gold and white "Bright Morning Star" banners shining at the front of the church, we sang it in closing, a brass ensemble joining us to sparkle the air. Now we move on to Earth Day in a resurrection spirit for this magnificent and threatened world that is our home.
SAWDUST AND SOUL: A Conversation on Woodworking and Spirituality
Sawdust and Soul arose from many conversations and joint woodworking projects I have had over the years with John de Gruchy—friend, theologian, and woodworker who lives in South Africa's Western Cape but who has also spent extensive time in the US. We've talked a lot about our wood projects and how this traditional practice of turning trees into useful and artistic pieces shapes as well as expresses our deepest values and approaches to life as well as its transcendent source. These are conversations about woodworking and spirituality. We've included a bunch of pictures of our work as well as some line drawings and poetry by John's wife Isobel. And yes, our children get in some words along with the woodworkers who have been part of our community of inspiration and support. Our topics range from the shaping of a sense of balance in our lives to dealing with loss, memory, and our wonder as creatures in the midst of an amazing abundance of life and artful design. Whether you're a tree-hugger, an all-thumbs reader, or an honest-to-goodness woodworker, we invite you into the conversation. CLICK HERE FOR A VIDEO CLIP!
SAWDUST AND SOUL is now available at your local bookstore as well as

and other book sellers.

William J. Everett
In my teaching career I authored eight books and numerous articles in social ethics and religion. After over thirty years of academic work — in Germany, India, and South Africa as well as in the United States — I wanted to turn my hand to writing that was more poetic and expressive. I also wanted a more viable balance between my work with words and my work with wood, especially furniture for worship settings. For more about my woodworking, go to www.WisdomsTable.net, where you will also find galleries of artwork by my wife Sylvia, whose ancestors were the original inspiration for Red Clay, Blood River.

TURNINGS: Poems of Transformation
Like works in wood upon a lathe, these poems are word-turnings that reveal the inner grain of our human experience. They are bowls to catch our turnings of memory, conversion, falling in love, and passing through our seasons and the wrenching turns that mark our lives. Above all these turnings are a shout of praise, a murmur of wonder, a turning away from life as usual, a merciful re-turning to the songs, images and stories that move our lives.

MacDermid held a decorative automotive supply chain seminar in June at the prestigious Automuseum in Ladenburg, Germany. Attendees were updated on REACh as it relates to the "Plating on Plastic" industry and were introduced to MacDermid's latest innovations in hexavalent chromium-free pretreatment and plating technology.
Among the many topics that were discussed, of high interest was a talk by Dipl. Ing. Marina Engelking of Volkswagen outlining the increasing use of calcium and magnesium chloride as de-icing salts in Germany. Due to this VW has implemented two new accelerated tests, VW PV 1073-A and PV 1073-B, which will be incorporated into the TL 528 technical specification for chromium plated surfaces.
The increasing use of trivalent chromium in markets around the world was also discussed. Additionally, a chromium-free etching process for plastic was introduced. MacDermid's evolve process, which is chromium, PFOS, SVHC and permanganate-free, requires no extra process tanks or processing times when compared to conventional metallization cycles. Production is currently meeting automotive standards and has demonstrated etch topography and adhesion values similar to chromic acid based processes.
MacDermid is also planning a POP plating summit to be held in the Detroit area this October for applicators in North America. For more information on this upcoming event, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com. You can also visit macdermid.com

Scotland's first minister to speak, April 6
Posted March 29, 2006; 08:47 p.m.
Jack McConnell, first minister of Scotland, will speak at 4:30 p.m.
Thursday, April 6, in 101 McCormick Hall as part of a celebration of
Tartan Day.
McConnell, whose position is equivalent to prime minister, will discuss "Scotland's Values, Ideas and Ambitions, From John Witherspoon to Today" and will highlight the connections between Witherspoon, Princeton, Scotland and the United States. While the address is open to the public, those interested are asked to register to attend by calling (609) 258-5980.
Tartan Day is formally appointed as the day of celebration of past and present links between Scotland and the United States. Tartan Day itself, April 6, was chosen because it is the date in 1320 that the Declaration of Arbroath (a declaration of Scottish sovereignty) was signed. The Declaration of Arbroath is recognized by historians as one of the models upon which the U.S. Declaration of Independence is based. In addition to Princeton, McConnell also will be participating in events during that week that will showcase modern Scotland in New York, North Carolina and Washington, D.C.
He is coming to the University, in part, because of the strong historic ties to Witherspoon, Princeton's sixth president from 1768 to 1794. Witherspoon was born in Scotland and served as a pastor there until taking the Princeton job. A leading member of the Continental Congress, he was the only clergyman and only college president to sign the Declaration of Independence. In honor of Witherspoon's contributions in this country and in Scotland, twin statues by acclaimed Scottish sculptor Alexander Stoddard were installed in 2001 -- one near East Pyne Hall at Princeton and one at the University of Paisley in Scotland.
The event is sponsored by the University and the Historical Society of Princeton.
