All Aboard the Connected Train
Unwired reports how train communications systems and business models have matured, and how rail operators are responding.
Amtrak confirmed Allison's expectations of Wi-Fi popularity; Lenetta McCampbell, Amtrak's senior director of Onboard Systems with overall responsibility for their national Wi-Fi program, made clear that Wi-Fi was considered a central part of Amtrak's product offering. The technology would, she said, place Amtrak in a more competitive position and contribute to increasing incremental revenue and ridership, while providing a communications backbone on trains for future passenger and business applications.
Since the launch of free Wi-Fi on the Acela service between Boston and Washington, D.C., in March 2010, Amtrak has seen an astonishing 47% uptake among its passengers; that's up from 35% in 2010. More than 130,000 users access the system from more than 250,000 devices every month, illustrating that many passengers have more than one IP-based device with Wi-Fi – be it smartphone, tablet or laptop.
Thanks to effective marketing, 80% of Acela customers were aware that Wi-Fi was available prior to traveling, while 89% of Acela customers said that onboard Wi-Fi service added value to the Amtrak trip experience. This is despite the fact that some passengers had found ways to bypass built-in blocking mechanisms to limit video streaming and large downloads, said McCampbell, and Amtrak is implementing a fair usage policy to tackle this.
To cater for demand, Amtrak is also augmenting available bandwidth by adding Wi-Fi at stations backhauled over wired networks with throughput of up to 100 Mbps. This will enable a true broadband experience for passengers at locations with high boarding volumes, and where cellular signals are restricted inside buildings such as Penn Station.
Figure 2 – Wi-Fi Benefits [Source: Amtrak] Learning from the Acela experience, Amtrak now has a better long-term view of service improvements such as a move to LTE for backhaul in some regions by 2013, and of leveraging the wireless service for generating advertising revenues and delivering passenger information.
The national Wi-Fi roll-out commenced in 2011 with systems being installed on a further 621 rail cars, which will lead to coverage of 70% of Amtrak's ridership with a common experience on every train. Ultimately, said McCampbell, it is Amtrak's desire to help establish a North American Wi-Fi Usage Policy that create a common standard for reporting of key performance indicators, system functionality such as fair usage and rate limiting, and "a shared set of priorities [among transportation agencies] to help vendors focus their efforts and resources."
It's clear that while free Wi-Fi is a driver, many TOCs are looking far beyond basic Internet connectivity for passengers. Cor ven der Hoop of Dutch railway provider NS Trains shared the progress his company is making with its On Board Information Services, or ORBIS. The GPS-based system delivers real-time information via multimedia, including in-train screens, the Wi-Fi hotspot landing page, and on train-side displays (see Figure 3).
Figure 3 – ORBIS System Topology [Source: NS Trains] The system is deployed on around 100 trains today serving more than 225,000 passengers daily, with a goal of equipping almost 400 trains by the end of 2013 and reaching NS's daily ridership of more than 625,000 passengers. NS has been providing Internet access to passengers for some time in partnership with T-Mobile and has seen a 7 to 10% uptake among passengers, with an average session time of 40 minutes and around 10MB download traffic per session.
Henry Hyde-Thomson of on-train systems provider 21Net announced a recent $10.5 million round of funding for his company led by Innovacom, the VC arm of France Telecom. Net21 outlined their IPTV service for high speed trains using a combination of cellular and satellite technologies, and which is being deployed by new Italian TOC NTV to deliver real-time news, sports and TV from SkyItalia. The solution will be integrated into 25 all-new Alstom AGV trains that will feature an impressive Cinema Car with multiple 19" screens, in-seat audio and personal 9" touchscreens.
SJ, Sweden's state-owned rail provider, also plans to offer infotainment services onboard its trains, although using server-based media located on the train rather that using satellite-based TV services. Paul Brindley, commercial director of Heathrow Express (HEx), provided a compelling holistic approach to the use of digital media to drive business. HEx is a rail service between London Paddington Station and Heathrow Airport. At just 15 minutes the journey is short yet the TOC has been offering free (originally paid) Wi-Fi to its 5.5 million annual travelers since March 2007, and sees almost 250,000 users a month.

Today's Runes for Michael Jackson
spread is used at critical turning points, to understand the dynamics of an important decision.
Ice Runes
are most commonly used for questions about struggle, conflict, and achievement.
The left rune represents
the first possible outcome
represents a thorn, the most basic of barriers to our boon or our bane. In the case of hedges, thorns protect our encampments from that which skulks towards us from the outlands. In the case of rosebushes, thorns keep us from beauty. Though thorns are passive and have no thoughts, they puncture, tear, and may even be poisonous. Hence, this rune may also represent irrational violence and anger.
The right rune represents
the second possible outcome
is the rune of hail. Hail is a destructive and elemental force, so one can expect this rune to represent the disruption of one's life. In the harsh northern winter there is a halt to activity, and so delay or hindrance is frequently associated with this rune. The opposite of chaos is yet more chaos, as illustrated by the fact that this rune cannot be reversed.
The bottom rune represents
the critical factor
that determines what will come to pass.
is one of the runes that touches on the cycles of the year, in this case the fall harvest. These cycles are eternal, which is represented in the rune by the fact that it is unchanged by reversal. Ger can represent pregnancy or other forms of fruitfulness, and is especially indicative of the cycles of providence and karma - that which has been sown is now being reaped. This rune can also represent the cycles of wealth, for crops were frequently a sign of wealth.

Park Description: | The southernmost promontory of the Shawangunks is a massive cliff called Sam's Point, which affords broad views extending from the Hudson Highlands in the southeast to High Point State Park and the Kittatinnies in the southwest. The name "Sam's Point" has also been used to designate the plateau-like mountainscape north of the promontory, formed of thick slabs of Shawangunk conglomerate. A miniature forest of evergreen heaths, blueberries, and pitch pines finds a tenuous foothold in this harsh, rocky environment. According to The Nature Conservancy, "the majestic views and unique landscapes of Sam's Point represent one of the best examples of a ridgetop dwarf pine barrens in the world." The Preserve offers inviting destinations for hikers relatively close to the main parking area and Conservation Center: Sam's Point with its spectular views; the Ice Caves where ice and snow can be seen even in the summer (and has its own 0.5 mile mini-loop trail); and Lake Maratanza, the highest of the "Sky Lakes." Further away are 180-foot Verkeerder Kill Falls, the highest waterfall in the Shawangunks; Indian Rock, a large fractured boulder perched near the top of a cliff and balanced on a smaller boulder; and High Point, the highest point in the area at 2,240 feet. This is the highest and wildest part of the Shawangunks. |
Trails Overview: | Trails in the southeastern part of the preserve are open to the public for hiking, but access to the more fragile area in the northwestern part near Ellenville is by permit only, save for the Smiley Carriage Road that skirts the restricted area (see Trail Conference Map 104). Providing access to various other hiking routes, a three-mile partially paved Loop Road (closed to private vehicles, but open to service vehicles) leads uphill from the parking area circling Lake Maratanza .
Click for detailed descriptions of hikes to the destinations mentioned above. These are moderate to strenuous hikes. Be aware that hiking the Ice Caves loop trail (white blaze) involves climbing wooden ladders. |
Directions: | From the South: Take NJ 17 north to the New York Thruway and continue to Exit 16. Proceed west on NY 17 to Exit 119, turn right at the end of the ramp, and continue north on NY 302 for 9.6 miles to Pine Bush, where NY 302 ends. Turn left onto NY 52 and continue for 7.3 miles. Just before the crest of the hill, turn right onto Cragsmoor Road. In 1.3 miles, turn right in front of the Cragsmoor post office, then take the next right onto Sam's Point Road, and follow it for about 1.2 miles to its end at the parking area for the preserve. A parking fee is charged per car. From the North: Take NY 52 south from Ellenville. In about five miles, at the crest of the ridge, turn left at a sign to Cragsmoor. Proceed north for 1.4 miles, turn right in front of the Cragsmoor post office, and then immediately turn right again onto Sam's Point Road which leads to the preserve's Conservation Center and parking area. See web trail map above for view of this parking area. GPS coordinates: 41.669963,-74.361649. Google Maps: "Sam's Point Preserve, Cragsmoor, NY 12420." Public Transportation: Short Line Bus operates limited daily and weekend service to Ellenville with a stop at Canal and Market Streets, about 0.7 mile from the trailhead to Smiley Carriage Road in Berme Road Park. Walk 0.5 mile southeast along Canal Street to turn left onto Berme Road. In roughly 300 feet turn right into Berme Road Park, follow the entrance road 0.1 mile to a parking area (GPS: 41.71342,-74.38271). Since much of the Preserve is restricted in this area to permit only, there are far fewer destination points compared to the views and features around Sam's Point proper. |

This year I realized I have way too many babies. I cut off the flowers on many of them as a means of plant control. I was thinking about cutting out some of the smaller plants, hoping to kill them. Don't want to dig as there is not enough room. Will cutting the small ones, kill them?? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I usually grab handfuls of the babies and pull them up. If they are big enough to cut, you may have to go back a second time and look for another flush of leaves, but I doubt it at this time of year. |

Volunteer with the North Brooklyn Bookmobile
Aug 12
For the past year and a half I have been working with an organization in North Brooklyn called St Nick's Alliance to create a book bus. With the area having the highest child poverty rate in the city, we have decided to focus on literacy as a community building tool. It began with the findings of a 20 year study by Mariah Evans, which "showed that the difference between being raised in a bookless home compared to being raised in a home with a 500-book library has as great an effect on the level of education a child will attain as having parents who are barely literate (3 years of education) compared to having parents who have a university education (15 or 16 years of education)." So how do we get 500 books into the homes of our kids? How do we create a culture of reading?
After countless focus groups, community meetings, input from parents and of course, kids, we decided to launch a community bookmobile. Graduate students at Pratt spent a year designing the bus and we have been promoting it at community events including GoGreen, Williamsburg Walks, and Grand Street Walks, as well as professional groups such as Tristate League of Professionals (connected with Pratt facilities department). We've also engaged pro bono assistance with branding and logo development and ramped up our fundraising capacity. And now we need The Desk Set!
In addition to a hybrid library design, we have plans to include programming and parent outreach. With the design of the bus, we hope to have story times, crafts, readers advisory, literacy tips for parents, and more. Everyone working on this project has agreed that it is absolutely key to have librarians involved. If you are interested in being part of this community project in any way, please contact me at kerry.roeder [a] gmail.com You can also read more about the project, here in Greenline.

The role that neutrinos have played in the evolution of the Universe is the focus of one of the most fascinating research areas that has stemmed from the interplay between cosmology, astrophysics and particle physics. In this self-contained book, the authors bring together all aspects of the role of neutrinos in cosmology, spanning from leptogenesis to primordial nucleosynthesis, their role in CMB and structure formation, to the problem of their direct detection. The book starts by guiding the reader through aspects of fundamental neutrino physics, such as the standard cosmological model and the statistical mechanics in the expanding Universe, before discussing the history of neutrinos in chronological order from the very early stages until today. This timely book will interest graduate students and researchers in astrophysics, cosmology and particle physics, who work with either a theoretical or experimental focus.

I called them and asked why they billed me again and I was told that I will be billed monthly and they send out new videos each month. I asked to cancel and they said that my request would go through.
The next month, again, another charge, and by this time, I had started receiving more product from them. It was the same 2 videos a month for almost a year and I have been calling them almost daily.
99.9% of the time, I mention that I want to cancel, or speak to a supervisor or manger, I am put on hold till they hang up or I do.
The times I do get someone on the line and repeat my story over and over cause it seems that they dont take notes there, they say that they will have to investigate and have someone call me back.
And nothing. So here I sit for over a year now, still receiving these dumb videos and sending them back RTS and I am still being charged monthly and I can't get ahold of anyone at all. This is very fustrating and along with that. There customer service reps are extremly rude.

EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

What does the oil look like?
I'd make sure you have decent oil pressure so you don't do more damage. It kind a sounds like the starter is not disengaging.

If you are lucky, it will be the timing belt pulley.
I haven't heard what a bad one sounds like but it's been described as "screeching" before |

Go get a cheap stethoscope (with a long rod) or even a screwdriver and start listening to various points on the head and block near your bearings. Could be nearly anything. Water pump? How many miles?

Sounds like a dry idler pulley, maybe the fan clutch. Fan has some parts missing too, those are chips missing and not just black mucking bits ya?
Not recalling the belt layout, take em off one at a time and leave the one for the fan for last, don't run for very long w/o a fan !! Start with the PS belt, that has a sealer bearing idler puller IIRC on the bottom. There is a gravely clicking sound along with the grinding squeel, seemd to be coming from the Alternator, that's bearing and brush noise maybe. hillbilly stethoscope, 2-3ft long 1x2 or random stick. Place one end on the part, put your thumb over the other end and listen thru your thumb and the cartilage thing at the front of your ear opening I prefer the stick, means I don't have to stick my head or hand near anything thats going to bite.

PS if it was something inside the engine making that noise like the rods you'd be overheating really fast.

After a while of running the sound goes away. I havent Been able to pin point the noise but it sounds like it is coming from the intake manifold. I pulled the spark plugs and all three plugs on the passenger side were covered in oil. #6 cylinder on the driver side was caked in oil as well. My question now is when i check each cylinder for compression how do i determine whether the low compression i believe i will see is due to bad rings or bad valve guides?

The oil is dark and a little low. When i run the truck the oil gauge is at L so im guessing i have low oil pressure. What can cause low oil pressure? Also when i start the truck sometimes it wont ignite, im guessing this is due to the oil soaked plugs. But you can hear the starter keep spinning and winding down til it stops. If i try to start the truck again before the winding noise goes away i get a gear grinding noise |

I am at work so I can't watch the video so this is kind if a shot in the dark. A freind of mine had a 3.0 with a squeeling that was horrible like you describe and we could not nail it down but he ordered some other parts while he was trying to fix it. His cat was original and when he put the new one on and started the truck the squeel was gone. Not much help I know but maybe seperate the front of the cat from the exhaust and check?

Potassium Channels Control the Interaction between Active Dendritic Integration Compartments in Layer 5 Cortical Pyramidal Neurons Neuron, Volume 79, Issue 3, 7 August 2013, Pages 516-529 Mark T. Harnett, Ning-Long Xu, Jeffrey C. Magee and Stephen R. Williams Summary Active dendritic synaptic integration enhances the computational power of neurons. Such nonlinear processing generates an object-localization signal in the apical dendritic tuft of layer 5B cortical pyramidal neurons during sensory-motor behavior. Here, we employ electrophysiological and optical approaches in brain slices and behaving animals to investigate how excitatory synaptic input to this distal dendritic compartment influences neuronal output. We find that active dendritic integration throughout the apical dendritic tuft is highly compartmentalized by voltage-gated potassium (KV) channels. A high density of both transient and sustained KV channels was observed in all apical dendritic compartments. These channels potently regulated the interaction between apical dendritic tuft, trunk, and axosomatic integration zones to control neuronal output in vitro as well as the engagement of dendritic nonlinear processing in vivo during sensory-motor behavior. Thus, KV channels dynamically tune the interaction between active dendritic integration compartments in layer 5B pyramidal neurons to shape behaviorally relevant neuronal computations.

The Pore Helix Dipole Has a Minor Role in Inward Rectifier Channel Function Neuron, Volume 47, Issue 6, 15 September 2005, Pages 833-843 Franck C. Chatelain, Noga Alagem, Qiang Xu, Raika Pancaroglu, Eitan Reuveny and Daniel L. Minor Summary Ion channels lower the energetic barrier for ion passage across cell membranes and enable the generation of bioelectricity. Electrostatic interactions between permeant ions and channel pore helix dipoles have been proposed as a general mechanism for facilitating ion passage. Here, using genetic selections to probe interactions of an exemplar potassium channel blocker, barium, with the inward rectifier Kir2.1, we identify mutants bearing positively charged residues in the potassium channel signature sequence at the pore helix C terminus. We show that these channels are functional, selective, resistant to barium block, and have minimally altered conductance properties. Both the experimental data and model calculations indicate that barium resistance originates from electrostatics. We demonstrate that potassium channel function is remarkably unperturbed when positive charges occur near the permeant ions at a location that should counteract pore helix electrostatic effects. Thus, contrary to accepted models, the pore helix dipole seems to be a minor factor in potassium channel permeation. Summary | Full Text | PDF (627 kb) |
Ion Concentration-Dependence of Rat Cardiac Unitary L-Type Calcium Channel Conductance Biophysical Journal, Volume 80, Issue 6, 1 June 2001, Pages 2742-2750 Antonio Guia, Michael D. Stern, Edward G. Lakatta and Ira R. Josephson Abstract Little is known about the native properties of unitary cardiac L-type calcium currents (iCa) measured with physiological calcium (Ca) ion concentration, and their role in excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling. Our goal was to chart the concentration-dependence of unitary conductance (γ) to physiological Ca concentration and compare it to barium ion (Ba) conductance in the absence of agonists. In isolated, K-depolarized rat myocytes, iCa amplitudes were measured using cell-attached patches with 2 to 70mM Ca or 2 to 105mM Ba in the pipette. At 0mV, 2mM of Ca produced 0.12 pA, and 2mM of Ba produced 0.19 pA unitary currents. Unitary conductance was described by a Langmuir isotherm relationship with a maximum γCa of 5.3±0.2 pS (n=15), and γBa of 15±1 pS (n=27). The concentration producing half-maximal γ, Kd(γ), was not different between Ca (1.7±0.3mM) and Ba (1.9±0.4mM). We found that quasi-physiological concentrations of Ca produced currents that were as easily resolvable as those obtained with the traditionally used higher concentrations. This study leads to future work on the molecular basis of E-C coupling with a physiological concentration of Ca ions permeating the Ca channel. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (212 kb) |

Research Article

Division of Neuroscience, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas 77030.
The rat alpha 7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor was expressed and studied in Xenopus oocytes. The magnitude and reversal potential of instantaneous whole cell currents were examined in solutions containing varying concentrations of either calcium or barium, and in the presence or absence of the intracellular calcium chelator BAPTA. In external barium, application of nicotine elicits an inwardly rectifying response; in calcium the response is larger and has a linear IV relation. Pretreatment of oocytes with BAPTA-AM could not prevent activation of calcium-dependent chloride channels in external Ringer containing calcium. Using an extended GHK equation, the permeability ratio PBa/PNa of the alpha 7 receptor was determined to be about 17. Our results suggest that alpha 7 nicotinic receptors are highly permeable to divalent cations.

There are certain corners that are really bad. If you sit in that Quizno's for about 20 minutes you'll see at least a couple of people almost get hit by drivers turning left. BTW-I believe that everyone of these accidents have been the fault of the driver and not the walker. Not all. One of the first was known by my wife and was walking across the signal. May have been the first, actually. But I think the rest have been on the drivers. 6 outta 7, not good regardless.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – The Eagles opened up OTAs today, and their first practices under head coach Chip Kelly.
One of the many changes Kelly introduced to practice is the use of loud music. Here are some of the songs that played over the speakers during the Eagles first day at practice.
"There's a lot of science behind [playing the music], but I've got 12 minutes left in this thing so I can't really get into the details of it but there's some science behind it. We've used it for a while," Kelly said.
LMFAO – "Party Rock Anthem"
The Wanted – "Chasing The Sun"
AC/DC – "Thunderstruck"
Van Halen – "Panama"
Ozzy Osbourne – "Crazy Train"
Nas – "Hero"
Flo Rida – "Good Feeling"

Newt Gingrich's flip-flops
Flip-flopping is an old charge in the rough-and-tumble world of politics. Mitt Romney has some explaining to do about health care, and Newt Gingrich seems to have back-flipped on Libya.
(Page 2 of 2)
"Exercise a no-fly zone this evening," he replied. "All we have to say is that we think that slaughtering your own citizens is unacceptable and that we're intervening…. All we have to do is suppress his air force, which we could do in minutes."
Skip to next paragraphRecent posts

But on March 23, he told Matt Lauer on NBC's Today show: "I would not have intervened…. I would not have used American and European forces, bombing Arabs and that country."
The liberal blogosphere jumped all over him, of course. But so did some conservatives.
"Is this anti-Obama pandering or just a big misunderstanding?" asked the anonymous AllahPundit at the conservative blog site Hot Air.
A more neutral observer – the Pulitzer Prize-winning PolitiFact.com – applying its "Truth-O-Meter," awarded Gingrich a "Full Flop." Among other things, PolitiFact noted, Gingrich didn't use his Facebook page to try and clear things up until he began taking heat.
One hesitates to say (as has been said about Kerry) that Gingrich is a habitual flip-flopper.
But there have been other instances, points out the liberal outfit "Think Progress."
On global warming, he was for cap-and-trade before he was against it. He even aligned himself with – horrors! – Al Gore and Nancy Pelosi on the subject.
Now that he's thinking about running for president at a time when the conservative wing of the GOP – whipped along by the tea party movement – is ascendant, he calls cap-and-trade an "energy tax." And his energy policy is summed up in his book "Drill Here Drill Now Pay Less."
Climate change? He's no longer sure that it's caused by human activity.
Health care?
In 2008, according to an AP report, Gingrich suggested "insurance mandates for people who earn more than $75,000 a year." Two years later, he was telling Sean Hannity at Fox News that health insurance mandates were unconstitutional.
Both Gingrich and Romney need to better explain their history on health care.
But it's his contradictory statements on US involvement in Libya that may be most troublesome for Gingrich.
Somebody's sure to remember that back in 2004 he said, "You can't flip-flop and be commander-in-chief."

Tuesday 11 Mar 2014
By Julia Michalska. Web onlyPublished online: 15 January 2014
A wall-sized, black-and-white checkerboard work by Tobias Rehberger, commissioned by the Berlin national library but concealed for almost year because of a complaint brought by the British Op-Art painter Bridget Riley, will again go on show.
The piece was at the centre of a legal row between Rehberger and Riley, who said it plagiarised her painting Movement of Squares, 1961, and demanded it be removed from display in the library's reading room. Rehberger argued that the checkerboard pattern was part of the public domain. The work was covered up instead, but will soon be unveiled following an agreement reached Wednesday, 15 December in a Berlin court. The work can stay put but must carry the caption: Uhrenobjekt nach Movement in Squares von Bridget Riley (clock object after Movement in Squares by Bridget Riley). The controversial installation has not been visible to the public since the case started in March 2013, and is the first in a four-part series of works that the German artist was commissioned to create for the national library. Meanwhile, it was also announced today that Rehberger will have a major retrospective at the Schirn Kunsthalle in Frankfurt. "Tobias Rehberger: Home and Away and Outside" is due to run from 21 February to 11 May.

The checkerboard design is not the point - it is the illusory way the squares change shape to curve and vanish behind the plane of the image that differentiates this from a chess board - and this is what Bridget Riley devised, and what lifts the work away from simple decoration. She is entitled to the credit attached to it.
20 Jan 14 19:5 CET
The checkerboard design is old and widely used. Does this mean Bridget Riley can threaten to sue the makers of chess and draughts boards? In a globalised world full of online niches and cul-de-sacs, full of ideas and designs and words, it is very difficult to come up with something that one can call an original idea and be certain it is. The phrase, 'Great minds think alike', ought to be the drily-spoken motto of this generation's inventors, writers, artists.

During the 1970s, Leonid Brezhnev tried to normalize internal and international relations through the policy known as détente. He also built up the USSR's military-industrial complex, which left much of the rest of the economy deprived. In 1979 Brezhnev signed the arms treaty SALT II with President Jimmy Carter, but the U.S. Senate refused to ratify the treaty, and the USSR invaded Afghanistan.© 2014 A+E Networks.

Friday the 13th ride in nor cal
Took the DR-Z all over Humboldt county that day. Many of the places have been talked about here, but one that has not to my knowledge is the town of Shively. In the winter there is a paved goat trail that dead ends in the town, but in summer there is a bridge that connects it with the Avenue of the Giants near pepperwood. There are usually logging trucks on this road so caution is advisable if you want to go zipping too fast around corners. I chose to start at the summer bridge and loop that way.
The bridge. The road ahead. In reality a street bike can make it. I hit 45 mph on this section of the road and am not a very good rider. The road turnes to this............ Yours truly Where I just came from. The gravel road you see in the right hand side of the photo is where I crossed the bridge and came from. A couple more shots before closing. I hope you have enjoyed this report on meeting the Humboldt Hillbilly's Yall come back now ya hear!
It's the journey, not the destination. John |
