Lawsuit seeks access to Petaluma's Lafferty Ranch
Published: Friday, February 1, 2013 at 7:49 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 1, 2013 at 7:49 a.m.
A lawsuit seeking public access to Lafferty Ranch on Sonoma Mountain was filed Thursday, rekindling one of the most contentious political issues in Petaluma history.
Disputes over public access to the 270 acres of wooded, rolling hills the city has owned since 1959 polarized Petaluma politics in the '90s, when council meetings played host to overflow crowds and angry shouting matches.
An effort to put the issue before voters failed, and four opponents to public access to the property were convicted of election fraud related to forged signatures on two proposed 1996 ballot initiatives.
Lawyers filed suit Thursday in Sonoma County Superior Court on behalf of Friends of Lafferty Park, Bill Kortum, Larry Modell and other longtime advocates for a park on the site, just east of Petaluma.
It names adjacent landowners Kimberly Pfendler and the Bettman-Tavernetti family, among others, as defendants.
At issue is a 905-square-foot triangular piece of land at a curve in Sonoma Mountain Road where the property lines converge. Just beyond it lies a gate to Lafferty Ranch, the undeveloped property's only entrance.
The suit contends that an 1877 official county map "clearly shows the entire width of Sonoma Mountain Road on Lafferty Ranch." Because the county never abandoned any portion of the road easement, nor have the property lines moved, the suit asserts, Lafferty Ranch continues to have access to Sonoma Mountain Road.
Access to the site was a key issue for opponents, who argued in a decade-long battle that the city property was landlocked and therefore inaccessible. They argued that the grass and dirt patch between the county road and the Lafferty gate was their private property, and they blocked access.
"This action will resolve once and for all that the public has a clear right of access to this publicly owned treasure at the top of the mountain that defines us," said Modell, a longtime advocate for public access to Lafferty.
Representatives for Pfendler and Tavernetti didn't return phone calls Thursday.
Pfendler is the widow of Peter Pfendler, a Harvard-educated lawyer and decorated fighter pilot who made his fortune by founding San Francisco-based Polaris Aircraft Leasing Corp., which grew to become the largest company of its kind. Pfendler was the most vocal and vehement leader of Sonoma Mountain property owners who fought the park plan.
Petaluma bought Lafferty Ranch in 1959 from the Sonoma County Water Company, a private company that for many years provided Petaluma's water supply. The headwaters of Adobe Creek are on the land, as is a dam that diverts water to the nearby Lawler Reservoir.
In the 1960s, Petaluma began purchasing most of its water from the Sonoma County Water Agency, which draws water from the Russian River. According to the suit, Lafferty Ranch hasn't supplied water to Petaluma since at least 1995.
As far back as 1962 the city planned to open the land as a nature preserve available to hikers and other passive recreational uses, the suit claims. The tree-studded, rolling hills provide panoramic views of Petaluma and far beyond.
But after years of fighting and $900,000 on studies and legal costs, the city decided in 2002 to abandon further attempts to open the park on its own. Deals with the state and county also fell through, at least in part because of access problems.
Park opponents also argued that the pock-marked road leading to it is too narrow and dangerous, and that park users would create a fire risk.
Sonoma County Supervisor David Rabbitt said even if the suit solves the access issue, the cash-strapped city would have to contend with maintenance and stewardship of a large park.
"I wish them well," he said. "But this issue is just one small step in the process. There are a lot of hurdles ahead, including, undoubtedly legal hurdles that will challenge any kind of environmental document."

The Scarlett Future
by Alex Carnevale
I have said in this space many times that celebrity couples are the way a decadent society expresses themselves. So too in the case of the walking thesis against the existence of white people, the coupling of Scarlett and Ryan Reynolds.
we will avoid attention dressed like this
In the case of ScarJo, something completely different has happened. While her mostly physical relationship with Reynolds surely represents all male desire to dump their brunette girlfriends for stupider blondes, she has herself become a far more important symbol.
You see in the time leading up to this coming election for president, you are going to meet somewhere in the neighborhood of 1,000 white girls telling you that you should vote for Obama for president.
These young people will not necessarily have been interested in politics before, but they will be utterly convinced of one thing: Barack Obama is the man to lead our country.
Barack was the only candidate to oppose the war from the beginning, you know.
Did you know that Obama once saved 16 Venezuelan children. And he smokes cigarettes just like us!
I think he's kinda hot. Don't you?
Peer pressure from blondes also caused the volcanic eruption of Mount St. Helens. True story.
Obama is sparking comparisons to Reagan, and rightly so. The irony of this is that Bill Clinton was really Reagan-incarnate – a politician who appealed more to people on his charisma than actual merit. The thing is, everyone knows Bill is a skeezeball, where people actually trust Obama like they did Reagan. This is powerful political capital, and it ensures Obama will win the nomination.
Seeing as 74 percent of Democrats are excited about voting in 2008 as opposed to 49 percent of Republicans, and that less people are saying they are Republicans now than at any time in the last twenty years…we have entered our collective ScarJo Future.
"I am engaged … to Barack Obama," Johansson joked in an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday. "My heart belongs to Barack, and that is who I am currently, finally, engaged to. Yes."
Obama misrepresents Lincoln and Kennedy?
"next time let's use protection." there you go!
The thing you have to love about Scarlett is that she really enjoys being a symbol, as when posing like Cinderella for the new Disney ads. And her trip to the Gulf region on a USO tour truly hilariouses us all.
The 23-year-old said in the release that she has long received letters from U.S. servicemembers and looked forward to meeting with them and signing autographs during her tour."This USO tour to the Gulf region truly means a lot," she said in the release. "I've wanted to go over and visit for some time, and now my moment has arrived. It's one thing to reply to a letter or extend your thanks to servicemembers in a speech, but it's another thing to visit them and spend time with those that do so much for us back home."
Johansson, who showed her support for the Democratic presidential candidate at the Iowa caucus earlier this month, was really just deflecting a question about rumors she might be engaged (to actor-beau Ryan Reynolds).
Favorite president?
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Do you have any Latino ancestry?
Not that I know of.
The 23-year-old actress talked about the warm welcome she received while visiting troops stationed in the Persian Gulf last week. Johansson dropped by U.S. bases in Kuwait on Jan. 17 and Jan. 18 as part of a USO tour in which she met about 3,500 men and women in uniform.
"Everybody that I met there was so incredibly friendly and polite and genuine and generous," she said. "They were so, so sweet. I mean, I was just amazed."
She was shocked that military soldiers were well-behaved. Great. It was nice of Scarlett to shake her ta-ta's for our men in uniform I will give her that. I hope she did the right thing and went all the the way with everyone.
Johansson said some people ripped patches off their jackets as gifts and handed her challenge coins from their military units. One Marine offered up his St. Christopher medal. Another starstruck guy gushed: "You made my whole deployment!"
scarjo's tramp stamp
In what would no doubt be an affront to God, she might play Princess Diana.
Johansson has a full plate for 2008, with the release of films including "The Other Boleyn Girl" and "He's Just Not That Into You," as well as the arrival of her debut album on May 20.
The disc, called "Anywhere I Lay My Head," features Tom Waits cover songs and one original track. "It was a really, really sort of inspired process to make this CD, and it was something I'd never done before," said Johansson, who said the album has a dreamy, ethereal quality.
On a far more serious note: Johansson was still speechless Thursday over the death of fellow actor Heath Ledger, who was found dead Tuesday in his Manhattan apartment.
"I'm really just so very shocked," she said. "He was an incredibly sweet, kindhearted and enthusiastic person. And, you know, he loved his daughter. I mean, that was like the light of his life. It's just a terrible loss."
ScarJo's new Tom Waits covers album is the third most annoying thing we can imagine. The second worst thing would be if Britney discovered a Nick Drake fascination and re-recorded Pink Moon or something. The number one worst thing would be a dumb movie about a teenage pregnancy taking the world by storm even when it was terrible.
The complete track list has yet to be announced, so it's unknown which gems from the Waits oeuvre will make the cut, though it's likely the title track, in Waits' version, a New Orleans-style jazz-infused funeral march, will be among them.
The album was recorded in just five weeks last spring at Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana. David Sitek, from the Brooklyn-based postpunk outfit TV on the Radio, produced the album.
Multi-instrumentalist Sean Antanaitis, a member of the indie rock band Celebration and a longtime Sitek collaborator, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zimmer also both appear on the album.
TV on the Radio meets Tom Waits and Scarlett is the embodier. I am shaking right now. I don't know what to do. And you see, that's what she wants. She aims to create an apoplectic rage that you can no longer resist. You give yourself over to it. You vote for Obama. You make a Lil' Wayne mixtape for a white person. You call your scarf a 'bib' when you are at restaurants. You start a tumblr. You begin to admire Brad Pitt, just a little. You wish everyone a happy Kwanzaa and then you chuckle. You tell everyone about your scrabble championship and link to it in your gchat away message. You eagerly await the release of the next U2 album, feeling that even if you don't enjoy it, you should support Bono. You rent Deja Vu. In short, you have become this:
Alex Carnevale is the editor of This Recording. One Katie Couric is approximately 2.6 pounds of excrement, go figure!
"Born on a Train (Magnetic Fields cover)" – Arcade Fire (mp3)
"Robot Man (Hot Chip Remix)" – The Aliens (mp3)
i cannot believe this photo exists, nevertheless, fuck marry kill, go
Rendering a viable opinion.
Bawdier and bloodier than Beowulf.
You enter the next chamber.
Scarlett also did this.

I think that the Scarlett's star is turning off. Her start was very hopeful, but the last works in films are very disappointing. So her interpretative talent isn't comparable with other actress of her generation than Natalie Portma, for example. Even though her beauty and charisma is out of every doubt.
She is An actress with a different elegance, but in movies of science fiction I have not liked his last works at all.
It was sure that it was a pride for them to be an icon of the country and to encourage to the troops
just wow she is very very pretty, no she is beautiful

Vico (tan) are my favorite Sebago shoes.
These are definitely a sleek looking slip-on shoe. Thank you for this wonderful review.
Product Size Rating:Sized as Expected
How do you most use this product?:Business Casual
Great quality but buyer beware on sizing
These shoes are of remarkable quality and feel. I wear them at work and for casual outings. Liked them so much in fact I have both a burgandy and a black pair. Love 'em. Beware of the sizing though. I typically wear a 10 (Nike) or 9.5 (Rockport), but with these, after two returns, I finally went with an 8.5! Haven't worn 8.5 since middle school! Plan to drop a full size or size and a half and you'll be a happy camper.
Thanks for the helpful review of this slip-on. We are happy to hear how comfortable and easy to wear they are. Your hints on sizing are helpful too!
Product Size Rating:Smaller than Expected
How do you most use this product?:Business attire
Vico Moc
I've had my Vico Mocs for about a week and can't get over how comfortable they are. It took about 30 minutes to brake them in. I purchased them to replace a pair of driving shoes, which I loved but they had a very short life span, and they compare very favorably to them.
We are happy to hear this style works as a replacement for our other driving mocs. We hope this style will hold up better for you too. Thanks so much for the great review, we really appreciate it.

Winter is settling in so the chances of snow, sleet, ice and colder temperatures will increase. As you make your way through the winter months, it is important be cautious outside.
Shoveling Snow
A necessary evil after a snow storm, snow removal poses a health risk for many people. Snow shoveling is more than a pain in the back. This strenuous activity can increase your blood pressure and heart rate. Cold air can also make it more difficult to breathe. Individuals with a history of heart disease, high blood pressure or strokes should not shovel snow.
If you must shovel snow, do it as soon as possible after the storm. Snow is heavier after it has been on the ground for a few days, often melting slightly and re-freezing, creating a solid chunk of snow and ice rather than powdery, just-fallen snow. Also, make sure that you are properly hydrated and have prepared your body for shoveling by warming up. Jog in place or do some jumping jacks before you begin to shovel, as this will get your blood flowing before you begin. Also, be sure to take your time and move slowly when shoveling snow. Shoveling too fast increases your chances of spraining or pulling a muscle.
Walking on ice
Icy patches on sidewalks or driveways can be difficult to see. The slips and falls that come with them can be serious. If you come across a patch that you believe may be icy, tap the edge of the area with your foot to check. Shoes with gripping soles provide better traction and make walking safer throughout the winter. Also, keep your hands out of your pockets, as this will help you to keep balance on a slippery surface.
If possible, don't carry heavy items like shopping bags with you when walking on slippery surfaces. This can change your center of balance, making you more likely to slip and fall.
When getting out of your vehicle, look around to make sure there are no icy spots near your vehicle. If you think that you have parked on a slippery area move your vehicle to a safer spot. It's better to take a few extra steps than risk falling in a parking lot. Also, if you must get in or out of your car while on ice, use the vehicle for balance and support.
Frostbite occurs when skin and its underlying tissue are exposed to very cold temperatures and freezing conditions. Skin that appears waxy or hard and has a gray tone may have frostbite. The damaged skin may also itch or burn and may turn red in color as the affected area thaws. The first step to treating frostbite is to get out of the cold. Get inside to a warm place as soon as possible. Once inside, remove any wet clothing.
If you cannot get out of the cold, place your hands under your arms to warm them. Also, cover areas that can be most affected by frostbite (nose and ears) with a scarf and try not to walk if your feet may have frostbite, as this will make the condition worse.
Frostbite is generally treated by gradually warming the skin. Place hands or feet in warm water, between 104 to 107 degrees and wrap other affected areas in a warm blanket. It is important not to apply direct heat to an affected area, as you may not feel a burn on already numb skin. Remember to seek the treatment of a medical professional as soon as possible if you think you may have frostbite.

If we can't plead stupidity, what else is there? How do we live with ourselves? Is it all the stuff we buy that manages to numb our brains and consciences?
When I see a headline like this one at Bloomberg today, World Needs Record Saudi Oil Supply as OPEC Convenes, there's just one thought that pops into my head: what the world needs is for us to stop doing this thing we're doing. Even apart from peak oil concerns, it's obvious we're going to run out at some point or another, and it doesn't matter whether that's tomorrow or at some other point in the future, though we do know it's not going to take another 100 years, or even 50.
And nothing will ever take the place of oil; once those unique carbons are gone, that's it, we'll have to find a completely different way of running our societies, and if we're not smart enough to prepare for that beforehand, we'll be cats fighting in a sack and use the last scraps to kill off each other. And our legacy won't be the Greek thinkers and Picasso and Dostoyevsky and Walt Whitman and Maria Callas, since there won't be the means for our children anymore to share what makes man great between them. Our main legacy will instead be bloodshed, we will have gone the exact same path that any non-thinking or even primitive organism would have taken, who don't have opera or philosophy or poetry to their name.

Large Methane Plumes Discovered on Laptev Continental Slope Boundary: Evidence of Possible Methane Hydrate Release | Robert Scribbler Blog
SWERUS-C3 researchers have on earlier expeditions documented extensive venting of methane from the subsea system to the atmosphere over the East Siberian Arctic Shelf. On this Oden expedition we have gathered a strong team to assess these methane releases in greater detail than ever before to substantially improve our collective understanding of the methane sources and the functioning of the system. This is information that is crucial if we are to be able to provide scientific estimations of how these methane releases may develop in the future (emphasis added). — Örjan Gustafsson
Over the past few years, the Arctic has been experiencing an invasion.
Emerging from the Gulf Stream, a pulse of warmer than normal water propagated north past Iceland and into the Barents Sea. There, it dove beneath the surface fresh water and retreating sea ice, plunging to a depth of around 200-500 meters where it concentrated, lending heat to the entire water column. Taking a right hand turn along the Siberian Continental Shelf, it crossed through the mid water zones of the Kara. Finally, it entered the Laptev and there it abutted against the downward facing slopes of the submarine continental region.

The microbes living in the guts of males and females react differently to diet, even when the diets are identical, according to a study by scientists from The University of Texas at Austin and six other institutions published this week in the journal Nature Communications. These results suggest that therapies designed to improve human health and treat diseases through nutrition might need to be tailored for each sex.
The researchers studied the gut microbes in two species of fish and in mice, and also conducted an in-depth analysis of data that other researchers collected on humans. They found that in fish and humans diet affected the microbiota of males and females differently. In some cases, different species of microbes would dominate, while in others, the diversity of bacteria would be higher in one sex than the other.
These results suggest that any therapies designed to improve human health through diet should take into account whether the patient is male or female.
Only in recent years has science begun to completely appreciate the importance of the human microbiome, which consists of all the bacteria that live in and on people's bodies. There are hundreds or even thousands of species of microbes in the human digestive system alone, each varying in abundance.

Good news for the 19th-century prison reformer Elizabeth Fry. Hers is the face on the £5 note, and yesterday's announcement by the Bank of England that there is to be an injection of "quality" fivers in ATMs will restore some dignity to a lady who, more often than not in recent years, has looked a little bedraggled.
The gradual disappearance of the £5 note has been a nuisance, and vaguely troubling. Does its scarcity encourage us to spend more money? Money we probably haven't got? It's not difficult to suspect that dark forces are at work, and as long ago as 2007, the Governor of the Bank of England himself used a Mansion House speech to point out that there was an "ample supply" of new £5 notes waiting to be used. The problem, suggested Mervyn King, was that the country's commercial banks were shunning them for cost reasons.
Now that problem has been addressed. The 10 largest cash-machine operators have committed to increase the frequency of £5 notes in place of higher-denomination notes. No more buying something for 70p, having nothing smaller than a tenner in your pocket, and then lugging around a pile of loose change.
Society's increasing cashlessness may be the very reason why our notes and coins still matter to us so much. Welcome back, the fiver, and welcome back, Mrs Fry. We need you.

As for IceNetwork, to me it is not financially worth spending $30 to watch skating online for just a couple of days/one competition.
In past years, the short programs (at least for Mens and Ladies) have always been shown, both on NBC and ABC. Why they decided to act as though they don't exist is ridiculous.
Would they show only the second half of the Superbowl or the chack the first four games of the World Series? Of course not. Hell, USA Network (owned by NBC) is airing every friggin' round of the Australian Open.
Interesting that the rep from Universal Sports who kept us abreast last season has conveniently disappeared . An explanation and an apology would have been nice.

Hi All,
I recently purchased a pair of Monitor 7Bs, a craigslist steal for $35. These came with the beveled fronts, crossovers without the external fuse and the dreaded SL-2000 tweeters
I'm finding the SL-2000s a little too aggressive, so I have located a pair of Peerless tweeters on eBay and hope to have them in hand soon.
I'm aware that I will have to made modifications to the tweeter hole in the front of the speaker and am planning to saw out a larger opening to accommodate what I assume will be a larger circumference magnet.
My question is, what modifications do I need to make to the crossovers in order for them to be compatible with the Peerless tweeters? My guess is it's a different resistor, which would alter the crossover frequency.
Can I retrofit my current crossovers or will I need to search for a pair of vintage 7A crossovers?
Lastly, is this a worthwhile project (since the used Peerlesses are cheaper than a new pair of RDO-194's)? It seems I'm searching for a legendary sound akin to a sonic holy grail. Is this a fool's errand or am I on a reasonable trek?
Any assistance or advise will be gratefully accepted. Thank you in advance.

Jim Schwartz on Louis Delmas: 'If (playing Delmas Thursday) turns out to be the prudent choice, we'd be willing to make that choice.' (Daniel Mears / Detroit News)
Allen Park � Louis Delmas wants to play against the Patriots Thursday. The coaching staff would love to see him play, see him gets some game-speed reps with his new running mate Glover Quin.
But when you do the risk-reward calculations, it's probably in the best interest of the team that he sits this one out.
"There is a balance there, for sure," coach Jim Schwartz said Tuesday. "It would be an ideal situation to be able to get him out on the field. But Lou is a guy we are not evaluating from any other standpoint than his health."
The plan from the end of last season until now has been to get Delmas ready for Week 1 and try, against long odds, to get him through a full season. He suffers from tendinitis in his surgically-repaired left knee. It's a bone scrapping on bone issue and the more pounding he puts on it, the more pain and swelling he has to deal with.
He practiced for an hour on Monday and said he felt fine. He was as happy and fired up as we've seen him in a while, chomping on the bit to play against the Patriots. But then he didn't practice on Tuesday.
He didn't practice for nearly two weeks after he went through a padded, full-contact practice the week of the first exhibition game.
"If (playing Delmas Thursday) turns out to be the prudent choice, we'd be willing to make that choice," Schwartz said. "But we have to take a look and do what's best for him physically and not have any other agenda.
"If we let that be the guiding force, then whatever decision we reach will be a good decision."
The Delmas plan
Schwartz made it clear before training camp that a plan had been devised for Delmas � a plan probably not unlike the one the Redskins and quarterback Robert Griffin III are dealing with � and that both the team and Delmas had agreed to be vigilant about carrying that plan through.
Their vigilance and discipline will be tested this week. Delmas is probably feeling as good as he had in some time and the coaching staff is going to be tempted to get him on the field for a series or two.
Don't do it. The risks far outweigh the rewards.
The reward is for him to get some game-speed reps and build some rapport with Quin and continuity within the defense. That's it. There is nothing more Delmas could gain from it, except to scratch what has to be an almost unbearable itch to play the game he loves.
But, like Schwartz has said, reps in an exhibition game aren't all that crucial for a veteran player. Delmas didn't play at all in the preseason last year. Didn't play at all until Week 5 at Philadelphia and, guess what, he played one of the best games of his career.
Honestly, in terms of communication and chemistry, a player like Delmas, who is in his fifth year in this system, can get just about as much out of controlled team drills in practice as he would in 10 or so snaps in an exhibition game.
As for the risks: Playing against the Eagles last year proved to be Delmas' last hurrah for 2012. The knee swelled up, the pain came back and even though he soldiered through seven more games, he never played at his normal high level.
Reckless abandon
The whole point of limiting Delmas' work through the offseason and training camp this year is to limit the stress on the knee and reduce the recovery time. What if it took him another two weeks to recover from playing Thursday? Then there would be concern about him playing against the Vikings in Week 1.
Maybe it wouldn't happen like that, but why risk it? Why put any unnecessary miles on his wheels?
You say, "Well, it's preseason, so it's not like he has to go all out like he would in the regular season." First of all, have you met Delmas? It is not in his nature to go half-speed at anything. He only knows one way to play football, and that's with reckless abandon.
Second, him going half-speed would defeat the entire purpose of playing him at all.
It's admirable that he wants to play as badly as he does. In a perfect world, with a guy with two healthy knees, it would certainly be beneficial for the defense to have a full dress rehearsal with all of its parts.
The reality is, this team is coming off a 4-12 season. The futures of the general manager, head coach and coordinators are very much on the line. There may not be another team in the league that can less afford to get off to a slow start than the Lions.
So, they need to do everything they can to make sure Delmas and all of their top players are healthy and ready for Week 1. That really is priority one as the Lions finish up the last two exhibition games.

That appears to be a very early version of the rules (link) used for Twoy's Titanic Mandate v. Elder Gods (link) game. Is there a specific version of that ruleset which we're using that should be referenced? It should be noted that those rules, particularly those for casters, are unbalanced and eminently breakable.Nihila wrote:http://www.erfworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1151&start=60#p26284
That should help a bit with the rules stuff...
Could you link a specific set of rules that we should be using as the definitive reference, except as modified by the exceptions and alterations that you're citing here? Some of the things that you just said don't seem to be strictly referencing either v0.02a or v0.39 of the rules, which are the only ones that have been linked here so far aside from a forum post which is incomplete at best. I need a "those rules given" to be working off of here- the fact that the game is in beta makes it that much more important to ensure that the old versions of the rules that are floating around, or those which have been modified by others in ways you don't plan to use, aren't potentially confusing the issue.Kaed wrote:Several notes/addendums on those rules given:
Nihila wrote:Sorry, one quick question:
</br>Do we get Terrain Capabilities for our terrain of choice? For that matter, do we get to pick a terrain at all, for starting locations and the like?
Yes.Kaed wrote:Assuming here you want a desert specialisation
I thought that we were supposed to make one of every unit type listed, so I did. Anyway, given that there are plenty of real-world locations where the desert is right next to the ocean (the Sahara comes to mind), and that there are some famous One Thousand and One Nights tales involving the sea- Sinbad, for example- it doesn't seem to clash with my flavor to me. And yes, I would like to make one of my ship units a marid, a powerful aquatic type of jinn. It seemed to fit the flavor of the side better than another fairly generic ship type, and I don't really see any reason why the only seafaring units would be ships anyway- there's precedent in a recent text update that there are normal water-capable units as well.Kaed wrote:but little confused here because you also want to have ships. It is uncommon for deserts and sea to be close together. Generally speaking they are an inland feature. You also seem to have classified your ships as djinn varieties which is a little unusual. I just want to point out here that ships are an optional affair unless you are going to be using water a lot.
Oh, I'm definitely not looking for long-term predictions through the knights. The flavor behind their abilities in Dune is a sort of mind-over-matter deal powered by believing that what they want has already happened and then reflexively taking the most efficient path to making their belief reality.Kaed wrote:Your knights - that is an extremely interesting idea actually. I should point out a few things about it though before you get too excited. This would be limited predictamancy. You're working with 30 juice here and no long term predictions. They are also not ranged so there is no way for them to sit back and contemplate shots. What I CAN see them doing is scoping out a battle before they charge in, and me calculating as though they had done it and telling the result. This will likely cost 5-10 juice per unit you wish to find out about attacking.
Well, there are two other existing abilities that grant some form of stealth to compare against: Simple Foolamancy and Burrowing. This is obviously much less powerful than a full simple foolamancy since it's far less flexible and personal-only. As described here it's significantly weaker in stealth terms than Burrowing, which at four points provides not only concealment but also significant protection and movement bonuses. Given that this can't be used while moving, it takes an entire turn to activate, and there is still a chance for other units to blow the veil and see them I can't say this is worth more than two points. At three it would need a significant power boost to measure up.Kaed wrote:Now. Stealth. I think that can be worked in as an ability in the same tier as fabrication. It's just using foolamancy principles instead of dollamancy. Basically they spend one turn in the same hex preparing themselves, then receive a veil as long as they remain there and don't attack. That seem reasonable?
This seems reasonable in principle. Not sensing flying units is sensible and means that surprise would definitely not be entirely eliminated no matter what. As far as range goes, you're reviewing the move rules- perhaps make the radius of the ability equal to the distance that a standard humanoid unit can move in one turn? That leaves mounted, flying, and unusually fast units able to strike without giving warning but makes the ability large enough to do what it's supposed to do in the most common circumstance, that is, locate the enemy so they can be attacked before they get away. Pricing... I'm not sure how effective scouts are at reliably locating the enemy effectively; if they're usually more than enough then this is probably a three-point ability; if finding the enemy with scouts is a pain then it's probably four-point.Kaed wrote:Sandworms: same as stealth, but we probably can do a tremorsense special... Sense ground units moving and their direction from say... Three hexes away? Trying to make it useful but not so useful it eliminates surprise entirely.
City sites are definitely an Erfworld thing. If we're trying to match flavor, then we should use them; by my understanding cities and capitals aren't popped by the sides that own them, but rather found and built on specific compatible locations.HerbieRai wrote:Another option is to only allow cities to be built on city site hexes. This would give the GM control over how many cities could exist in the game and where.

I got hooked on Flamenco by going to one of their events about 8 years ago.
Speaking of which, if you're a flamenco fan, you'll want to go to City Center this March:
The website doesn't mention this (yet) but they usually offer free Flamenco lessons before the show.
On a totally different note, I am SO annoyed with myself. I was on the subway yesterday, and saw this ad, which I thought was legit, albeit over-the-top. The laugh was on me:

The charger arrived quickly and worked on my Nexus S phone. The only thing I can say is the cord is VERY short. Maybe 3 feet at best. This is fine if the phone is charging while I'm sleeping but if I want to charge while using the phone I have to use a longer cord.
I purchssed this charger as an extra .It has worked well for me. Arrived as it was advertised. arrived quickly.

For 300 you're in that price range where you can probably find a used Mac mini.
I can't say if it's better than what you're looking at because I don't know that gear, but I can tell you it would make an excellent choice for what you're wanting to do and that's what a lot of people buy them for.

The scope I ordered looks very nice. It extends easily and is easy to use. I was impressed by how clear the magnified image was. I gave this scope as a gift with pride. The carrying case itself is simple plastic which may not hold up very well to heavy use.
4/5/2010 - TD - San Antonio, TX
When I ordered this item I didn't plan on using very often but after I used it once I was hooked. The quality of this spyglass is amazing for the price, it has replaced all my binoculars and although it might look silly it's a great conversation starter.

My Email Digests
I've been reading here quite a bit and have posted a couple times.
I'm curious if anyone has had a CT angiogram and has lowered their calcium score on a follow up test.
I had the above test 2 years ago with a calcium score of 327
which caused me to change my diet. I was told at the time the plaque in my arteries did not obstruct blood flow and most of it was calcified meaning it had been there for a long time.
After following a very strict way of eating the past two years I had a follow up test yesterday and expected my score to either remain the same or maybe even drop. The calcium score from my test yesterday was 380. The Dr who read the scan informed me the both scores are basically identical as the scoring/scan can be off 10-20% and not to get hung up on the number. Needless to say
I'm hung up on the number
My bloods are pretty good
Total Choeesterol 119
Triglycerides 64
LDL/HDL ratio 0.86
So I'm curios if any of you have had follow up CT angiograms that resulted a lower calcium score
What are your ideas about why this happened? Joe.
Yes I did have two CT angiograms with dye. First was 2 years ago. 2nd on Monday. I am following Ornish/Fuhrman/Mcdougal kind of plan 95 % vegan, no dairy, no oil, no meat, no processed foods. My only cheats are steamed salmon once or twice a month and a small handful of a raw almonds daily. When away on vacation once a year I may venture off the plan a bit for the week but not with meat , dairy or fried foods.
So I assume my numbers did not drop due to the cheats above.
Like I said the Dr who read the scan said he would consider this the same amount as the first scan.
All I can do is try to improve and keep moving on!
I'm looking to see if anyone has had the same test and lowered their numbers. To date know one has said they have.
Take care
Here is what I found.Eat lots of veggies and fruit.drink almond milk and eat lots of fish.(yes I know they say no meat)but that's bull crap.the vogel "bart"test revealed that salmon had very little effect on the arteries.so do a low carb sensible diet like what I'm doing,lots of fish,salad,veggies,fruit.DRINK LOTS OF WATER,I found that water was the key and actually helps lower your resting heart rate,drink two 16 flu oz water upon waking and constant drink water through the day.walk at least 2 miles a day and you don't need weights!.I only eat salmon or fish,no other meats.the calcium score may never drop or may take years to resolve but as long as your not adding to it you should be fine.dont think that losing weight will clear the calcium,it wont.
Thanks for the advice. My diet is pretty good and I get a good cardio workout 4-5X a week and I walk more than two miles daily on top of that. Climb stairs every day too.
My motto is never ride if you can walk.
Like I stated my Dr's have indicated the test can vary and that my score is considered no change which I have accepted.
No one one any board has come forth with the fact that they have actually lowered their calcium score which is leading me to believe it is not possible
(Always love your name)
I suspect the calcium score will lower very slowly, over decades. You are doing all the right things.
Nathan Pritikin had cardiac disease in his late 40's. He died about 25 years later, with only a trace of fatty streaks.
So, calcium can be reversed. Dr. Esselstyn and Ornish have documented reversal of atherosclerosis, sometimes quite dramatic. jc reports that Dr. Davis claims to reverse calcium scores. A while ago jc forwarded a great reference from Dr. Davis, suggesting that fish oil supplements (DHA/EPA) and vitamin D, were essential parts of reversal. Have you had a blood test for vitamin D? Everyone should. There is huge variation, person to person, in vitamin D requirements. Ideal blood levels are 35 to 55 ng/ml. I was severely deficient at 16, when I had my first vitamin D test, when I was 60.
Best regards,
It makes sense it may takes years to reverse what I've spent a lifetime building. I do have my Vitamin D levels checked as well as B12 Levels are D-36.7 B12-538 So I'm OK there.
Best regards, EngineerGuy
You could have a test which shows no calcium but that does not mean you are heart attack proof because you could still have plaque filled arteries. Do we know for certain that the higher the calcium score the more likely you are to have a heart attack? If so is it the calcium or the fact that your diet is so poor that it causes blocked arteries which cause calcium to be laid down as a protection?
I do not have the reference but I remember many years ago reading that a study was done that showed that eating lettuce was more protective than omega threes and people who ate the greens had fewer heart incidents than those eating omega threes. (I think this was around the time that everyone was oohing and ahing over the lack of heart attacks among the Inuit.)
What my Dr told me was that
a CT angiogram will show exactly what is going on in your arteries and is a much better barometer than a stress test.
I found this which indicates a ct angio gram can help predict coronary events
Not sure how accurate it is
I also refused a stress test a couple of years ago. I figured, if there is any question--start changing your lifestyle. So regardless of what any test might find as far as artery disease is concerned, diet, exercise, meditation and maybe some other things would be the route I would take anyway so why take the calcium scan and end up having your doc insisting on meds you don't want to take anyway? I have diabetes and know I have a greater risk of lots of things than non diabetics so I don't need any test to tell me that.
Or maybe I have the wrong attitude.
In my case it showed me I had a problem that I was not aware of. I was a walking time bomb. The test made me realize I had to change my lifestyle. The second test was taken as a baseline to see how much if any the problem was progressing.
I credit the test with saving my life!
What concerns me about this calcium scan is that I read that your arteries could be filled with plaque but no calcium could show up on the scans because as yet there just isn't any. My son in law had this test and is very confident he has no artery problems because they found no calcium. If he does have plaque, now is the time to attend to it before calcium shows up on the scan but he feels very safe because of the result of this test.
