These lights are awesome and I would recommend them to anyone. You can use these lights for other applications as well as long as you have a 12 volt source. The customer service of company is second to none. It is ashame many other companies don't follow their lead. Great lights. Thanks Autoanything and TruXedo.

This year's Grand National could be one in which the classier animals come to the fore and that brings Tidal Bay, Long Run and Burton Port right into the mix. Forced to narrow that list down to one potential winner Tidal Bay would be my main tip to win the race on Saturday. Long Run is looking to complete the Cheltenham Gold Cup and National double while Burton Port has some decent form against top class horses.
Only three horses aged 13 or over have won the race but Tidal Bay is no ordinary teenager. He was good enough to win the Arkle Chase in 2008 but still remains something of an enigma. However, his form over the last two years at the highest level and in significant Grand National trials means he can defy the age trends.

Hillary Clinton is planning to officially launch her US presidential campaign on Sunday while en route to Iowa, a source familiar with the campaign has confirmed to the Guardian.
The former secretary of state is scheduled to declare her second run for president on Twitter at noon eastern time on Sunday, the source told the Guardian, followed by a video and email announcement, then a series of conference calls mapping out a blitzkrieg tour beginning in Iowa and looking ahead to more early primary states.
Clinton's Sunday schedule is booked beginning with takeoff from New York to Iowa, where speculation has centered for weeks that Clinton was focusing attention for an April campaign launch. Her scheduled calls are with advisers in other key battleground states.
Clinton's spokesman, Nick Merrill, did not respond to multiple requests for comment on the contours of Clinton's campaign kickoff schedule. Another source close to the Clinton campaign confirmed Clinton would be in Iowa in the coming days.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- A new University of Florida survey shows a growing pessimism among the state's residents worried about the potential effects of Congress failing to deal with the fiscal cliff.
Confidence that personal finances will be sound at this time next year dropped two points in the monthly survey while confidence in the U.S. economy over the coming year fell six points in the survey of 400 Florida residents by UF researchers.
Overall, Florida's consumer confidence remained unchanged in December, albeit down slightly from a post-recession peak in September.
Improving home sales and rising home values, declining gas prices and a resilient stock market offered the good news in the report along with trends that state revenues may be higher than estimated for the first time in several years.

As released by the Susquehanna Art Museum.
HARRISBURG, PA. – The Susquehanna Art Museum (SAM) today announced its inaugural exhibition Open: Icons of Pop Art from Niagara University will coincide with the opening of its new building. The new 20,000-square-foot building will open to the public on Friday, January 16, 2015.
The new building, located in the historic Midtown section of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, opens during the museum's 25th year of operation. The new museum will incorporate aspects of the 'Greek-revival' architecture of the building's former occupant, the Keystone Trust Company. Heralded as a catalyst for arts education and appreciation, it will be one of the newest cultural additions to a burgeoning enclave of Midtown Harrisburg; joining the Midtown Scholar Bookstore, the Historic Harrisburg Resource Center, the Broad Street Market, and Millworks.
Four exhibition galleries will showcase local, national, and international artists. Visitors can also enjoy an outdoor sculpture garden. "I am proud of our community, members, and staff that have all come together to make this building a reality," said Laurene Buckley, Susquehanna Art Museum's Executive Director. "It represents an extraordinary accomplishment that could have only been achieved through the support and commitment of a host of individuals who all share a common goal of supporting the visual arts."
The museum's inaugural exhibition presents a dynamic representation of some of the major contributors to the Pop Art movement of the mid-twentieth century, including Andy Warhol, Robert Indiana, Marisol, and Roy Lichtenstein. The collection is on loan from Niagara University's Castellani Art Museum. It features works on paper, paintings, and sculpture—and captures an important moment within our nation's history. "This exhibition will provide Central Pennsylvanians with the opportunity to experience and learn about this important movement in art history, and how it relates to American pop culture," said Lauren Nye, SAM's Exhibition Manager. The exhibition runs through March 1, 2015.
About Susquehanna Art Museum The Susquehanna Art Museum (SAM), a non-collecting institution, exhibits nationally-and internationally-recognized artists in an effort to educate, inspire, and foster creative exploration, collaboration, and public engagement. SAM accomplishes its mission by showcasing the works of emerging and established artists from the Central Pennsylvania region and beyond, as well as through its VanGo! Museum on Wheels and Art to Go, which provides an innovative cultural arts experience for students of all ages.

It's friends' books Wednesday, and we have my dear friend Cindy Holby with her debut book as Kassy Tayler!! ASHES OF TWILIGHT - exciting excerpt HERE!
Kassy's debut Young Adult novel, in the steampunk/dystopian genre, has been gathering rave reviews all over the bookverse!!
"Riveting Dystopian steampunk! Kassy Tayler writes with haunting precision, and you'll fall in love with Wren and Pace as she brings their world to gritty, lyrical life." --Ann Aguirre, Rita award winning author of Enclave
"Dystopian fiction at its best! Kassy Taylor delivers an enthralling story filled with adventure, romance, intrigue and a tiny canary that will steal your heart." --Mari Mancusi, Award winning author of The Blood Coven Vampire Series
"Kassy Tayler's Ashes Of Twilight lures the reader into a dark and forbidding world bereft of hope. Wren's quest for freedom, her primal need to share the sunlight, makes for a richly layered and compelling read." --Jana Oliver, Prism award winning author of The Demon Trappers Daughter
"Ashes Of Twlight is dark and atmospheric, with an exciting plot, a compelling hero, and an engaging heroine whose refusal to accept the limitations her society wants to put on her is both uplifting and eminently relatable."
--Jenna Black, author of The Faeriewalker Series
Huffington Post declares Ashes Of Twilight a likely successor to Hunger Games. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/lisa-parkin/life-after-the-hunger-games_b_1394794.html
Kassy was kind enough to drop by and answer our Frivolous Five, and one lucky commenter will have a chance to win a copy of ASHES OF TWILIGHT!!
AD: What is your favorite musical group/band and does it inspire your writing, or do you find yourself dancing around the house in your underwear to avoid writing?
KT: Right now I'm in a country frame of mind so my favorite bands are Lady Antebellum and The Band Perry. I also love Creed and Stone Temple Pilots which is on the other side of the world from the first two I mentioned. Also been on a classic listening bend lately. I have Frank Sinatra on my Pandora station. I usually get my dance on at ballroom, where I take lessons, and I'm always fully dressed while there.
AD: You are a well-known rescuer of abandoned kittens—what would
you do if you found an abandoned tiger cub on your doorstep?
KT: Oh a tiger cub, that would be fun. I would take it in, then call the local rescue to make sure it is sent to the best possible place. I think wild animals should be allowed to be wild. Besides, my rescued kittens and my dog Cody would be jealous.
AD: ASHES OF TWILIGHT partly takes place in a coal mine. Have you
ever received coal in your stocking at Christmas, and if so, why?
KT: No coal for me, although I am certain I probably deserved it at times. My dad was a great believer in giving presents at Christmas because as a boy his family was so poor that he didn't get presents. Therefore he made sure there were always lots of presents under the tree.
AD: Your friends were amazed and astounded (and a little bit
afraid) when you started talking about CORNHOLE. Discuss.
KT: Hey, I'm trendy. Just because my friends are behind the times....Cornhole is all over the place now. And for those of you who don't know what Cornhole is, its like horseshoes, only you throw a beanbag into a hole in a board. Its much safer than horseshoes, especially if someone has been drinking. ;p
AD: You've written a kajillion books about the old west. Pirates or
KT: There is something about cowboys...They lived hard and quick and for the moment yet they are steadfast and loyal. Although since I've seen Hook on Once Upon a Time, I might be swayed. Still I've never seen (or written about) a cowboy who wears eyeliner.

News & Announcements
The Marshall Field's Brick Sale Story
For at least two years the Society has known, if the Field's building really went to the Wrecking ball,
we would be given a number of bricks to sell as a fundraiser. As much as we need operating funds, we were all pulling for the building to find a successful re-use. Sadly, that could not be, and in November 2010, demolition of the Marshall Field's Park Forest Store began. It is truly heart-wrenching to watch the demolition. The one saving grace for us is that we can share a piece of history with all of those who loved this Marshall Field's, or who love all things Marshall Field's. And purchase of a brick will make it possible for the Park Forest Historical Society to Save our History for another 25 years. For details on how to purchase a brick, click here.
If we have known about this possibility for two years, one would think everything would be in place for how we would handle the sale. Only in theory! Our board is small and has been dealing with a number of important programs and plans over the past two years. This fall has been particularly busy, with a very special program and display on the 60th anniversary of the Holiday Theater; taking the display to the Holiday Theater lobby for their 60th Anniversary Gala; having Gregory Randall do a program, which initiated the sale of the 2nd edition of, "America's Original GI Town;" opening the exhibit, "Step Back into a 1950s Christmas" to presale tickets (also available at the door); working on our 25th Anniversary Luncheon--January 30, 2010; and many other behind-the scenes projects to further our mission and vision.
Our new president, Michael Gans, took the reigns just in time to be given responsibility for the Brick Sale!!
The Board wishes to thank him for the many hours he has put in to make this sale a resounding success.
Everyone has pitched in to help. Jane Nicoll has handled pr, and this website, updating news on the sale in several places, and helping with the physical set-up of the sale--on top of decorating the museum, designing tickets and posters for that! She also found time to write the Marshall Field's store history we include with each brick. And she is adding PayPal to the website to try to facilitate quick mailing of bricks and other gifts during the holiday season. Jerry Shnay, Secretary, designed the beautiful Ceritificate of Authenticity. Thanks to Mike Gans and his sons who are helping physically move a number of bricks to each sale--a huge and heavy job!
Thanks to our entire board for all of the many hours they are putting in to make both the exhibit and the sale a success!
We want to share some photos with you of preparation for the sale:

Former Vice President Dick Cheney hit back against the Senate Intelligence Committee's report criticizing the CIA's interrogation program, dismissing it as a flawed and "terrible" piece of work.
"The report's full of crap," Mr. Cheney, who was vice president during the period the interrogation program was underway, told Fox News Channel's Bret Baier Thursday.
He said the report was a "classic example" of what happens "where a group of politicians get together and throw the professionals under the bus."
The report released on Tuesday by the Senate Intelligence Committee Democrats concluded the harsh interrogation of suspected terrorists was ineffective and "brutal." Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.), the committee chairwoman who oversaw the investigation, said the study showed "the CIA's actions a decade ago are a stain on our values and on our history."
Mr. Cheney noted the committee investigators never interviewed the key people involved in the program. Sen. Feinstein said the CIA would not instruct its employees to cooperate.
The former vice president rejected the committee's conclusion that his boss, President George W. Bush, was uninformed about many of the program's details and wasn't briefed on it until 2006, about four years after it was begun.

AN2 – thank you soooooooooo much Idioticonion for reading this over and helping me find the confidence to get it posted.
For a week she simply studied the odds. Calculated and recalculated. Weighed and reweighed.
And at the end of that week, she went to the pharmacy and bought three boxes. Each of the boxes was more or less the same size, but they came in varying shades and combinations of pink and blue and white.
She only bought three of the little boxes because, she reasoned, one, would be too few – they weren't foolproof. And five, she further reasoned, would make her look like an insane woman when she went through the checkout counter.
So three..., three was the magic number.
She went home - to her house – for once and stood frozen just inside of the doorway. She hadn't been in her apartment for more than twenty minutes total during the past month. Her house had become little more than a three room safe.
It held her winter clothes.
It held her CDs (her mp3 player traveled with her).
And it held her – their – pictures. Pictures of her and Marshall.
The rooms were all clean, but a layer of dust covered all the furniture and nicknacks.
She touched the edge of a picture frame and shook off the grey particles that clung to her fingers; it was one of her favorite pictures of her and Marshall. They were standing outside of Ted's brownstone, Marshall was behind her, his arms wrapped around her, his hands on her stomach; a big cheesy grin on both of their faces.
She gently ran her finger along the image of his face.
They had been so happy in this picture. So... aware of the future. Aware of the fact that they had … all the time in the world.
Dropping her hand from the picture with a sigh, she glanced at the open door that led to the bathroom.
She didn't want to be here; but this was the only place that she could do what she had to do.
Heading into the kitchen, she jerked the refrigerator door open, grabbed a bottle of water and twisted the cap off. Chugging down the full contents of the 16 oz bottle, she cracked her head first to one shoulder and then to the other. Lily Aldrin-Eriksen - big girl panties – pull em up, or rather, down, and... just do it! Taking a deep breath she made the short, but ohhhh so long trek to the bathroom.
Thirty minutes later (twenty four minutes for the water to make its way to her bladder, one minute for her to pee on three six inch plastic sticks, and five minutes for the pH balance in her system to be calculated and measured) and Lily was staring at a: +, a blue bar, and the word positive .
And she was laughing.
And she was crying.
She was sitting, puffy eyed, in front of the television when he called. Picking up her cell she contemplated, for a minute, not answering. But she knew if she didn't answer, he'd call again. And again. And then, if she still wasn't answering, he'd start looking for her.
And she couldn't see him right now.
If she saw him she'd break down.
Even just hearing his voice... she clicked the phone on.
"Babe, are you coming home soon?"
She grinned into the phone at Barney's use of the word 'Babe'. He knew she hated the term, but he still used it, teasingly, laughingly..., and sometimes, seductively.
Her grin faded almost immediately as she recalled the three little plastic sticks sitting on the bathroom counter.
And then she recalled Marshall.
...And she remembered the two of them talking about having a baby.
A baby they never got a chance to make.
And now, here she was, pregnant.
With Marshall gone.
With Barney...
"I -," She couldn't see him. "I'm going to stay at my place tonight." Why? Why am I staying at my place? What reason would convince him? What reason do I have to stay at my place when I haven't slept anywhere but Barney's apartment in the past five months? "I have to go in to work early tomorrow so I thought I'd stay here tonight, uh... since it's closer to the school... and, closer... and yeah."
Barney was silent for a beat.
And then for another beat.
And then he asked, "Are you okay?" His voice was low; it was his Lily voice. The voice he used just for her... for when it was just the two of them.
"I'm fine... I... look, Barney, it's late." It was 7 pm. "I just need to get some paperwork done, and I have to go into classes early so, I... it's better that I stay here tonight." She could feel the tears lining the edges of her eyes and she blinked rapidly, hoping Barney would let it go.
He did. "Fine. I'll see you tomorrow...?" It was half statement and half question.
She offered a quiet, "Sleep well Barney" before pressing the disconnect button.
Lily wasn't a crying kind of girl. She didn't break in to tears when she stubbed her toe, or every time she watched chick flicks.
She had cried when Marshall died.
She'd cried a lot when Marshall died.
Death of a husband? Yeah she was allowed that one.
All and all though, she wasn't a cry baby.
But tonight, for the second time in less than two hours, Lily found herself crying.
Barney looked down at the phone still sitting in his hand.
He'd known it would happen. Eventually.
He'd known Lily would come to her senses and want to leave him.
He just hadn't expected it to be now.
For the past few months the two of them had been... a small dark grin crept across his visage...
… they'd been awesome.
Lily managed to limit her interactions with Barney for the next week; using work and Robin and Ted as buffers.
The buffering, of course was most successful during daytime hours, and less successful at night. Hiding out at her apartment was an option for a couple of nights, but unless she absolutely positively wanted to cut Barney out of her life, she couldn't stay at her place every night.
So she stayed with him, per usual.
Except she didn't sleep with him.
Instead, she sat up late in the living room, laptop settled in front of her, her fuzziest slippers and her least appealing Pjs covering her. She click clacked at the keyboard, shuffling student papers and artwork around until Barney silently disappeared into their – his – bedroom.
A couple of nights that week she feigned falling asleep on the couch – an excuse not to go to the bedroom. But again, that ruse only worked for a couple of days... The other nights found her creeping into Barney's bed in the wee hours of the morning, pressing her frame into a tight little ball at the far edge of the bed.
Her side of the bed.
His silence regarding her withdrawal freaked her out. It freaked her out a lot.
She kept expecting him to poke at her. The loud, boisterous, in your face 'poking' that Barney Stinson was so well known for.
But he didn't.
He didn't poke.
He didn't peep.
He was simply silent. And watchful.
She could swear, on the nights that she crept – silently - into his bed, she could feel his eyes on her – reading her - in the dark.
She knew things were – broken – between them.
And she knew it was her fault.
But she was going to fix it.
She'd do what she had to do and then... then she'd pull her pieces back together, and pretend, for however long Barney would let her, that they could be a couple. A real, flesh and blood, forever and ever couple.
Instead of the twisted mess that colored and painted their reality.
So, yeah, Lily managed to limit her interactions with Barney for a week; but a week was all she really needed.
At the beginning of that week, she made an appointment for Friday afternoon at Planned Parenthood. They would officially verify the pregnancy, and then... then they would officially terminate the pregnancy.
She didn't let herself think about the consequences of the pregnancy.
She didn't allow herself to think about the consequences of the abortion.
She simply focused on the fact that she wouldn't – couldn't – have a baby that wasn't half Marshall's. She couldn't commit the ultimate betrayal of Marshall's memory.
She didn't let herself think about Barney. Why would she? Barney didn't want her... not really. There was no way he'd ever want a baby... a child... especially not with her.
The procedure only took two hours, from start to finish. Pregnancy to Un-pregnancy.
And she was fine afterward.
Just fine.
He wished she'd leave him.
Just go.
Take the knife out – in one quick movement – and... let him bleed.
But she didn't, instead she just... lay there. Cool and slender; deep in his gut. In his heart.
He laughed hollowly. It was funny; Lily was the only woman in the past thirteen years who had EVER faked anything with him. In just the past week she'd: faked working at her computer, faked falling asleep on the couch, and she'd faked wanting to come to their bed at night.
And worst thing about it? He didn't have fucking clue about what to do. How to fix it. Fucking a woman, he could tease her g-spot, he could taste and tickle her clit. There were things he could do to make her 'stop faking it' and start 'feeling' it. But getting Lily to cum wasn't his problem. It never had been.
His problem was that she was faking wanting to be near him. His problem was that he was losing her.
And honestly, how the fuck could he convince her to stay when even he didn't believe she should be with him.
So now, after a week of silence - after she'd, obviously, come to the conclusion that what they had was... done - he'd decided he simply needed to cut his losses and let her fucking go.
He straightened his tie and tugged at the lapels of his suit jacket. It was Friday night and Lily would probably be home in a few minutes, and when she got home, he was going out.
He was going to go to the nearest bar and he was going to find the biggest pair of boobs attached to the tallest, amazonian woman he could find, and he was going to bury himself in that woman and make her cum as many times as he possibly could.
After all, he had some value and worth.
He heard the key scratch at the apartment door lock and, giving his reflection one more glance, he plastered on his Barney don't-give-a-damn smile.
The smile disappeared as soon as Lily entered the apartment.
She didn't look at him, she was staring at the floor, but he could still see her eyes were too big, too wide. Her lips pressed together too tightly. Her frame too fragile looking.
She'd only taken a few steps into the apartment but he could tell something – tonight – was different. And his plans, his 'cut before you're cut' plans, faded into nothing.
She didn't say anything, but those too big eyes lifted up to meet his and all he could think to do was open his arms.
She melted into him.
He curved his fingers through her hair, soothing her even though he didn't know exactly why he was doing so.
All he knew was she was trembling, and she was clinging to him, wrinkling the silk-cotton blend of his favorite grey JIL Sander's suit.
He didn't care about the wrinkles because Lily was crying… and he didn't care about the wrinkles because he was holding her.
And he honestly didn't know which emotion was stronger, concern that she was crying, or happiness that she was in his arms.
There are two more days of silence.
But it's a different kind of silence.
This silence is full of wishes never thought, fears never conquered, whispers never made.
And in this silence – this silence – Lily clings to Barney.
She sits on the couch, her hand tangled around his arm, her body curled up next to his. She lies in their bed and sleeps deeply with her head curved against his chest.
She thinks, and doesn't think, about all that has been and all that never will be.
And after the two days of 'never' filled silence, she tells him.
In her head, prior to telling him, she futzes with the words, ordering and reordering them in search of the right pattern.
So... sometimes, women and men, have a little... accident and there's this way of fixing and undoing this little accident. No that sounds like I'm talking to one of my students about bladder control.
So, I was suppose to have a kid with Marshall, and God made a mistake... timing a little off; there's no Marshall, so of course, I made sure there's not going to be a kid... but anyway, just thought you should know. 'I just thought you should know?'! Jesus!
Know how I've been a bitch for the past week and a half? And how I've been crying on your should for the last couple of days? Yeah: pregnant and now un-pregnant. Hormones are a bitch! She dropped her head in to her hands. She had to find the right way to tell him.
And after all of her planning and attempts to find the perfect way to tell Barney about the un-pregnancy, she ends up telling him in the most unspectacular, unplanned, dissatisfying manner in the world. The words simply escape her lips.
Sunday night Barney made them dinner. He poured her a glass of wine and served her her plate, and then he settled into his own chair and picked up his fork.
The words chose this moment. This very moment to fly out of her mouth: "I had an abortion... on Friday."
His fork was poised and frozen mid-air as his brain processed her words.
His eyes flitted up from his plate and locked with hers. Blue trying to decode and decipher what they were reading in Green.
He blinked once, twice. And then he lowered the fork to his plate.
She watched his nostrils flare.
"You... what?" His mind was spinning.
She pushed away from the table and tore her eyes from his; watching him, being so close to him was..., painful.
He spoke again. "Why?"
Small word, huge question.
"You know Marshall and I... we were trying -"
Ever since Marshall had died, Barney had been hyper aware of Marshall's presence in Lily's life. He'd been aware that she was always comparing him to Marshall. And he'd been aware that in most of those comparisons he would always be 'second best'. He knew she had loved – did love – Marshall deeply. And he was prepared for Marshall to always be a part of her life.
Honestly, he was fine with that. He was jealous, but he could live with that degree of jealousy.
He wouldn't – didn't - want Lily to forget Marshall. He'd never expect that of her.
But for once. On this one topic? Barney really didn't give a damn about Marshall. "Fuck Marshall."
Lily's mouth dropped open then she shut it before quickly opening it again.
"No. I get you and Marshall had a whole life. A life you were living. A life you planned to live. But he's not fucking here Lily! And he had nothing to do with... with..." he couldn't say the word baby. If he said the word, it would be too real. And if it became real, he didn't know if he could forgive her.
And it would suck not being able to forgive the person you were in love with.
He looked back down at his plate. "Why didn't you tell me... before you...?"
"Marshall -" she started.
Barney looked up and tilted his head to the side, eyebrow up; daring her to continue down the path she'd started on.
Lily paused and girding her confidence around her ,she tried again. "Look Barney, you and I both know that this," she waved her hand between the two of them. "This is fun. And pleasurable, but... I – we – we both know this isn't real. A baby... a child... a child is..."
Each of them, from their own vantage point ached. Longed. For something real.
And each of them, from their own vantage point, knew, absolutely knew, that the other one didn't want what they had to offer. Didn't want the reality they were so preciously, unwittingly, tangled in.
Pushing away from the table, Barney headed to the door, stopping only long enough to pick up his money clip, his cell, and his keys.
Twisting in her chair so that she could follow his movement, Lily – more desperately than she'd planned – called out to him. "Wh-where are you going?"
He smirked as he pulled the door open – it wasn't a happy, teasing smirk though, it was dark and just a bit twisted - "Gee Lil, I didn't think we were in the kind of relationship where we told the other person what our plans were."
And then he was gone.

Mashaallah.may ALlah save us from such punishment.aameen
Do you know who is poor?
Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) as saying:
"Do you know who is poor?"
They (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) said: A poor man amongst us is one who has neither dirham with him nor wealth. He (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said:
"The poor of my Umma would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrecton with prayers and fasts and Zakat but (he would find himself bankrupt on that day as he would have exhausted his funds of virtues) since he hurled abuses upon others, brought calumny against others and unlawfully consumed the wealth of others and shed the blood of others and beat others, and his virtues would be credited to the account of one (who suffered at his hand). And if his good deeds fall short to clear the account, then his sins would be entered in (his account) and he would be thrown in the Hell-Fire."

Everything is different now that we're all knowledge workers, right? The digital world has changed everything… hive mind… singularity… chaos! change! panic! PANIC!
Maybe. Maybe not.
Yesterday I talked about the risks and rewards of low-tech innovation – if we re-think the most basic parts of our value networks, the parts that we take for granted, we can find great opportunities. Then today I read this in Shop Class as Soulcraft by Matthew B. Crawford discussing motorcycle repair (emphasis mine):
You also develop a library of sounds and smells and feels. For example, the backfire of a too-lean fuel mixture is subtly different from an ignition backfire. If the motorcycle is thirty years old, from an obscure maker that went out of business twenty years ago, its proclivities are known mostly through lore. It would probably be impossible to do such work in isolation, without access to a collective historical memory; you have to be embedded in a community of mechanic-antiquarians.
In all this talk of digital transformations, it is easy to forget that we are talking about systems and processes that have been around for a long time. A lot of the digital things that seem new to us now are simply new in digital form, not in general.
Crawford's example shows how no matter how low- or high-tech our profession, we still depend on our network for storing, filtering and finding information – the extended brain works in all fields. And it is this network that creates value, that generates ideas, that innovates.
All of our economic and intellectual activity takes place within networks. The ones in which we're embedded play a substantial role in what we are able to accomplish as individuals. It doesn't matter if we're twittering, developing a scientific theory in the 19th century, fixing motorcycles, writing a PhD, figuring out a new way to our job, or just thinking about something. Our networks help us create ideas, and they help us spread those ideas. They even help us craft those ideas. The better we know our networks, the more effective our ideas will be. That's how we deal with the challenges of the digital age – through our networks.

About Me
Always Mission: to help other people feel good. Current Mission: Completing a thesis while living in Hong Kong... Playing magic, Wing Chun, Morris Dancing, and Unicycle Hockey!
Likes to have adventures, attracts magic, likes big words, is not horrible.
I would like to go to Sealand. It's not an option on this system, so I mention it here.
Our world is the illusion of an illusion. Our minds are the shadow projections of bodies in motion, under stress, negotiating pleasures and pains within a vast, inexhaustible abyss, in the company of strange others. The unlimited and the limited dance with one another, throwing off fractal streamers of complexity, swirling into negentropic vortexes that in chasing their own past, evolve into the future. Have fun, be kind, learn lots. Remain present.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I surf, sometimes alone, sometimes with my wife. We cannot host, as such but if you wish to visit Lantau, and I can, I would gladly show you some magic, or take you on a hike!
Traveled all around the world and Couchsurfed many many times, in the weirdest places... Had fantastic experiences. Made friends that I have come and visited for a second time. Network expands, network contracts... Breathe.
I like visiting ancient sites. I am a Phd candidate in philosophy, religious studies and sociology, and I do magic and circus shows on the side. I spend my time traveling and learning things. I never stop looking for knowledge. I am fascinated with the idea of polymathhood: universal method.
I like magic tricks, and can perform some.
I like chess, Chinese or Western. I am happy to play.
I know a little Tai Chi, Some Bagua, and Some Wing Chun.
I am fascinated with languages: each is a new world!
I love the study of where we are: Astronomy and Geography, Macro and Micro.
I am a GLBT, and Feminist Ally.

Teach, Learn, Share
I know some of the history of philosophy and magic. I can juggle, ride a unicycle, and do magic tricks with cards and other things. I am not a specialist, but a player of many different plays . I designed several of my own calendars. I practice some Kung Fu also. I am interested in learning anything from martial arts to magic tricks to math and physics, and laguages. Also organic farming, gardening, mushroom-cultivation, and fermentation of different sorts: kombucha, wine, beer, mead. I am a learner, but can share some of what I've learned. I used to raise ducks.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can show you magic tricks, tell you stories, and have deep conversations. I am not so good at "small talk", and am not a party animal. I value friendships, and hope for lasting ones, to span the world.

Mother's Day Weekend Wrap-Up (5.8.10-5.9.10)
I had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend with my family. We celebrated with my mom and my grandmother on Saturday and then I celebrated with Mike and Will on Sunday - perfect!
It was nice to stick around Boston and spend two whole days here with the people who mean the most to me. Saturday was rainy but we still were out and about. I cooked dinner and had everybody to our place since I wasn't sure how late Will would be up. We ate salad with pasta, meatballs and sauce then had trifle for dessert. Will stayed up for all of it so I guess we could have gone to my sister's or my grandmothers but since we're moving soon it was nice to celebrate this last holiday here. Sunday I was treated to all my favorites - breakfast from Flour (latte and a scone), lunch was a tomato/pesto/mozzarella sandwich and dinner was at Houston's (Thai chicken and noodle salad) after we went to the Celtic's game (which was a much better outcome than Friday night).

Well, howdy there. I read a good bit today, considering it was my first day in the salt mines after a nice break. The piece that stood out today was a quirky bit of magic realism about a miniature pink horse.
1. Life of Pinky: All About Our (Pink) Horse by Jocelyn Lau (Eunoia Review)
Everything about Pinky lives up to her name. She has a lovely long – pink – mane, fuller than my hair could – would – ever be, and beautiful deep pink eyes. She did not bring shoes with her when she arrived and we thought we'd fashion something out of an old block of hard wood that we found in our void deck, to protect her lovely fuschia hooves.
2. Life of Pinky: Horsecity by Jocelyn Lau (Eunoia Review)
During the day, she travels with either of us, but usually with the Big Guy because he gets to meet more people, especially young people, who talk funny and wear nice clothes and have interesting belongings, unlike real adults like ourselves, who are usually frumpy and grumpy; and during his classes, she is able to romp around the classroom, poking at things and people, and when she gets tired, resting in students' pencil cases. She loves it that her invisibility to people outside of our home allows her to get away with all her pranks.
3. Life of Pinky: Travels to Bintan by Jocelyn Lau (Eunoia Review)
I'd have thought that, judging from her appearance, Pinky would be a completely saccharine creature even in her taste for food, but strangely enough, that characteristic does not extend to coffee. Pinky loves coffee…
This playful series is a lot of fun to read, and maybe has a little something going on beneath the surface too. I'm reserving judgement on just how "great" it is, but it's great reading when you're in the mood for something light.

Conrad Boychuk, senior director for recreation and venue development at CEI Architecture is a life-long sports fan with a passion for construction. Here, he explains the importance of spectator experience in sports stadia
"I've always been fascinated with spectator facilities and the dynamic of bringing large groups of people together for a shared experience," says Conrad Boychuk, senior director for recreation and venue development at CEI Architecture. A life-long sports fan, he still remembers his earliest spectator experiences watching live wrestling with his father and grandfather. "Building memories really enhances the human experience," he reflects.
This fascination with the spectator experience has guided him throughout his career. His initial focus was on the performance venue side of things, although his first few jobs as a young architect concentrated on recreation, so the extension to spectator facilities was a natural next step.
The senior director's current role is to grow the spectator facet of the business at CEI Architecture. He says that the firm has a great portfolio of projects in the recreation sector, which is quite a bit different to spectator facilities; "My role is to facilitate the transition to event-based facilities rather than programme-based ones," he confirms.
Boychuk's expertise has earned him a place within several high-profile projects throughout his career. Some 15 years ago, he was on the original design team for the redevelopment of BC Place Stadium in Vancouver, and was involved in a couple of concepts for a new retractable roof. He was subsequently involved in the current retractable roof, which has been a magnificent achievement – the largest of its kind in the world.
Despite this, Boychuk says his proudest achievement in the industry is not design-related. "One thing that was really gratifying for me was having a client say that my job was protecting him from himself," he reveals. "When we first started the project, he felt he had a good handle on things. That was a bit simplistic and his growth in understanding the event centre (and how much he didn't know and relied on others) was satisfying. My role was not as a designer but in a sense as a mentor."
Moving forward, Boychuk foresees continuing improvement with regards to 'the fan experience' within stadia. " I think we are going to see a continuation of highly technical productions, whether we are looking at concerts, sporting events, and even trade shows, " he says. "Not so long ago, people felt that the ability of television to get close to the performer gave it a leg-up on actually being in the stands. I think that, while broadcasting is doing an even better job, the electronic enhancements and effects experienced in the bowl create an excitement that is not fully transferrable onto the smaller screen. I think audiences are requiring more stimulation and the creativity of performers and sports teams are more than capable of stepping up."
He additionally hopes to see more attention being paid to the general ticketholder. "There has been a reliance on corporate investment for the leasing of amenity packages such as private suite, loge boxes and club seats,' he explains. "I think that one of the areas for potential growth with the accompanying revenue stream centres around enhancing the before- and after-game/event experience for the general ticket holder. I think at this level there is a loyalty to a venue or home team, and that exists more with general ticket holders than at a corporate level. Although those revenues for amenity leases are great to have, the real untapped resource is the basic ticket holder and his/her/their ability to be moved into a more stimulating environment with the accompanying additional revenues."
In terms of stadium design and functionality, Boychuk expects there to be less of a separation between the 'performing arts venue' and the 'entertainment and sports venue'. "Although the performing arts venues will continue what they have done, I really believe that the larger facilities that incorporate sports events will make significant inroads into the traditional realm of performance and cultural events. The realm of the large-crowd spectator events is on a significant threshold," he concludes.
Conrad Boychuk will be the moderator of Session 5: the Canada market report roundtable, within the Architecture & Built Summit at Stadia Design & Technology Expo 2012 (0900-10:00, Wednesday 9 May 2012).
