Which FCS schools make the most sense for Boston College?
Be gone, cupcakery!
Of the 10 programs still looking for a game or two in 2013, only two -- Arizona and Missouri -- remain from a power conference. The rest: Marshall, Tulane, BYU (x2 if uses the Hawaii rule), Idaho, New Mexico State (x2), CMU, MTSU and Texas State.
With the Frank Spaziani era of Boston College football mercifully coming to an end in two weeks' time, I thought it would be interesting (depressing?) to look back at the college football class of 2009.
Conference Realignment: Boston University Moving To Patriot League
Future Boston College Football Scheduling Rules
Patriot League Will Start Offering Football Scholarships In 2013
The Atlantic and Coastal divisions will remain the same with Syracuse joining the Atlantic and Pitt joining the Coastal. The current primary crossover partners will remain consistent with Syracuse and Pitt becoming primary crossover partners with each other, the conference announced on Friday.
Army And Boston College Agree To Swap Home Football Dates In 2012, 2013
With Big Ten football moving to a nine game conference schedule in 2017, does it make sense for the ACC to follow suit? That depends on what you think your program's AD will do when it comes to non-conference scheduling

Canon 60D, 50mm Prime, Dundee, Scotland.
It all kicked off at high noon as I was making lunch. Uploaded for a tomato challenge :-)
I have loved taking photographs since I was handed the "power" aged around 10. I have had many cameras since then, most costing under £100, and have enjoyed every one of them. I take pictures because I love the process and the results (sometimes) and if these can be enjoyed by others, then this is an added and welcomed bonus. Currently using Canon 60Ds with L series lenses.

Mo. sees little change in unemployment in February
Missouri's unemployment rate inched up slightly in February although the state also posted gains in the number of jobs.
Figures released Tuesday by the state Department of Economic Development show Missouri's unemployment rate was 6.7 percent last month, up one-tenth of a percentage point from January.
Seasonally adjusted, nonfarm payroll rose by 3,900 jobs in February, with gains in the construction industry offset partially by loses in food services.
Missouri's civilian labor force stood at slightly less than 3 million people, which was essentially unchanged since January. The labor force includes people with jobs and those who are unemployed but looking for work.

Dear me: It's called the Prism Scale. You just made yourself look like an idiot because you got Marvel Scale and Prism Scale mixed up. Good job. xDDD I apologize.
I messed that up too, so that makes two of us. It happens. It seems easy enough to mix up anyway - Prism Scale... Marvel Scale... both sound pretty anyway. XD - Juuchan17
Yeah, they do xD and for some reason I automatically associate Milotic with Marvel Scale (probably because that's its normal ability), which is most likely why I thought Ninfia = Marvel Scale because of Milotic's somewhat-shared color scheme. Though it would be a trip if for some reason Ninfia comes out as dragon-type or something and its ability really is Marvel Scale... o.o

In the post-Saddam era, differences among Iraqi ethnic and religious groups will either emerge as a barrier to political cooperation and national unity, or they will instead be mitigated as part of the struggle to define a new and more inclusive system of government. Should Iraqi ethnic and sectarian differences become unmanageable, a violent struggle for political power may ensue. This study does not predict an ethnic or sectarian civil war in Iraq except as a worst case, which must be analyzed and considered. If Iraqi violence erupts along religious/sectarian and ethnic lines, this conflict will have thunderous echoes throughout the area. Group identity, which is critical throughout much of the Middle East, will provide a compelling context for regional bystanders watching ethnic and sectarian bloodshed. Moreover, various nations would involve themselves in the fighting in ways up to and including the possibility of military intervention. Additionally, inter-communal harmony and tolerance in other regional states may suffer as the result of Iraqi fighting and the responses of neighboring governments to that fighting. The danger of an Iraqi civil war requires serious U.S. cooperation with those regional states that also have a stake in preventing this outcome.

EdComs Teachers Website
Posted by foxburg on 01/12/2013
I have only just found out about EdComs Teachers. (http://www.edcomsteachers.com)
The EdComs Teachers website offers free, high quality resources and ideas for lessons across a full range of subject areas for both primary and secondary schools. All the free resources are produced in collaboration with teachers and linked to the UK curricula.
The site looks relatively new, as the resources are still low in quantity, but that said the direction of the site is impressive, the resources promoted are not the usual classroom worksheets and powerpoints that are provided by some sites (yes TES I am taking about you), they are the ideas which stimulate us to make the small adjustments to the way we teach and the resources we use; something that experiences teachers find useful.
It appears that teachers that register can take advantage of the following benefits:
- Access to free online activities, videos, lesson plans, educational games and worksheets
- Access to Special guest blogs
- entry to focussed Competitions
· Priority for getting your school on free school live tours
· Monthly EdComs Teachers newsletter summarising the best news and resources from the education world
· Automatic entry to the EdComs Teachers monthly £50 Amazon voucher prize draw!
I think that this will be a useful addition to my list of resource websites, maybe not a go to every week site at the moment, but I feel sure some little gems may fall into my twitter feed that will encourage me to think differently.

Great price.
Carvery, especially the meat, was very average.
Great value by Black pool hotel standards but the restaurant seemed to be run by very inexperienced and younger staff. The rooms were very basic. Full of kids when we visited and all in all, not the normal Hilton business type hotel.

Possible Victims ...The S.F. Police could have caught me last night if they had searched the park properly in stead of holding road races with their motorcicles seeing who could make the most noise...... |

Re: 1967, Barbara Jane Parkin
We now know that Art Allen was checked by DNA , finger and palm prints. We can exclude Allen from our list. I do feel that Barbara Parkin could be a Z victim. I don't agree with LE on how a log was put on top of her body. I believe the killer/killers put that log on her so she wouldn't float away and not be found. I would like to know if LE ever compared the 9 mil bullets to the two other Z 9mil. used in his crimes ?
I am not sure if I ever brought up the fact that there were a lot of murdered or attempted murders of nurses in the Zodiac case ? We had Donna Lass, Kathleen John's. Possible Z victims, Judith Hakari, Carol Hilburn, Rosa Vasquez were nurses, Susan Dye worked at a Hospital in Santa Rosa. I think we can add Barbara Parkin to that list. Maybe Zodiac was treated at one time by a not so nice nurse ? |
Re: 1967, Barbara Jane Parkin
Then there's another late 1950s murder I posted on here of a nurse I think on mare Island.

Kruskal's tree theorem
In mathematics, Kruskal's tree theorem states that the set of finite trees over a well-quasi-ordered set of labels is itself well-quasi-ordered (under homeomorphic embedding). The theorem was conjectured by Andrew Vázsonyi and proved by Joseph Kruskal (1960); a short proof was given by Nash-Williams (1963).
Higman's lemma is a special case of this theorem, of which there are many generalizations involving trees with a planar embedding, infinite trees, and so on. A generalization from trees to arbitrary graphs is given by the Robertson–Seymour theorem.
Friedman's finite form[edit]
Friedman (2002) observed that Kruskal's tree theorem has special cases that can be stated but not proved in first-order arithmetic (though they can easily be proved in second-order arithmetic). Another similar statement is the Paris–Harrington theorem, but Friedman's finite form of Kruskal's theorem needs a much stronger fragment of second-order arithmetic to prove than the Paris-Harrington principle[citation needed].
Suppose that P(n) is the statement
- There is some m such that if T1,...,Tm is a finite sequence of trees where Tk has k+n vertices, then Ti ≤ Tj for some i < j.
This is essentially a special case of Kruskal's theorem, where the size of the first tree is specified, and the trees are constrained to grow in size at the simplest non-trivial growth rate. For each n, Peano arithmetic can prove that P(n) is true, but Peano arithmetic cannot prove the statement "P(n) is true for all n". Moreover the shortest proof of P(n) in Peano arithmetic grows phenomenally fast as a function of n; far faster than any primitive recursive function or the Ackermann function for example.
Friedman also proved the following finite form of Kruskal's theorem for labelled trees with no order among siblings, parameterising on the size of the set of labels rather than on the size of the first tree in the sequence (and the homeomorphic embedding, ≤, now being inf- and label-preserving):
- For every n, there is an m so large that if T1,...,Tm is a finite sequence of trees with vertices labelled from a set of n labels, where each Ti has at most i vertices, then Ti ≤ Tj for some i < j.
The latter theorem ensures the existence of a rapidly growing function that Friedman called TREE, such that TREE(n) is the length of a longest sequence of n-labelled trees T1,...,Tm in which each Ti has at most i vertices, and no tree is embeddable into a later tree.
The TREE sequence begins TREE(1) = 1, TREE(2) = 3, then suddenly TREE(3) explodes to a value so enormously large that many other "large" combinatorial constants, such as Friedman's n(4),[*] are extremely small by comparison (in the case of n(4) it may be equal to TREE(3), see below).[citation needed] A lower bound for n(4), and hence an extremely weak lower bound for TREE(3), is A(A(...A(1)...)), where the number of As is A(187196),[1] and A() is a version of Ackermann's function: A(x) = 2↑x-1x in Knuth's up-arrow notation. Graham's number, for example, is approximately A64(4) which is much smaller than the lower bound AA(187196)(1). It can be shown that the growth-rate of the function TREE exceeds that of the function fΓ0 in the fast-growing hierarchy, where Γ0 is the Feferman–Schütte ordinal.
The ordinal measuring the strength of Kruskal's theorem is the small Veblen ordinal (sometimes confused with the smaller Ackermann ordinal).
See also[edit]
^ * n(k) is defined as the length of the longest possible sequence that can be constructed with a k-letter alphabet such that no block of letters xi,...,x2i is a subsequence of any later block xj,...,x2j.[2] n(1) = 3, n(2) = 11 and n(3) > 2↑7197158386.

Photo: Thinkstock A few months before he died, 83-year-old Spyros Sathi, widely regarded as the greatest Christian mystic of modern times, agreed to sit down and talk with me in his first American interview. Known simply as the Daskalos ("teacher"), this powerful Cypriot healer had, I'd heard, once frightened a group of hard-nosed reporters by rocking a lame child in his arms and setting him down a few minutes later on legs that were suddenly functional. The night before our interview, I'd studied the Daskalos from a distance, holding forth on a New York stage strewn with flowers; now, stepping into his hotel room with a photographer, I had no idea what to expect.
The moment he rose—six feet five in a cardigan sweater—and took my hand, all my apprehension disappeared. Something about this towering man—a glowing kindness, a welcoming ease—put me at ease, too, and for the next hour I questioned him about how it felt to have his powers. I barely understood his responses (you try interviewing a mystic), but when I stood up to say goodbye, I was so light-headed—so light all over—that I had to sit down to steady myself. The Daskalos smiled and watched me intently; then without any forethought, I asked him about a painful situation in my life. My host leaned forward, took my wrist between his fingers, and said, "You are good." Three simple words—just that—bearing no conscious link to my question; yet hearing them I wanted to weep, as if Spyros Sathi had somehow heard, underneath the surface question, a deeper confusion, a covert hunger, a secret longing to be blessed. The photographer happened to capture this moment, the Daskalos gently touching my arm, grinning at me as I beamed back at him with the same sort of lit-up expression. In the photograph, which I treasure, my face looks like a hundred-watt bulb. I've never been a person of faith. In matters of spirit, I'm from Missouri—fascinated but skeptical. Were it not for meeting the Daskalos and a handful of other exceptional teachers in my travels as a writer and seeker, I would surely doubt that such a thing as spiritual energy existed—not as a miraculous fluke but a natural gift accessible to all of us. Like harmony, symmetry, and even genius, this invisible force is a mystery whose uplifting power must be encountered to be believed. Once that happens, revealing a glimpse of our awesome potential, it can never again be denied. Next: The science of spiritual energy From the July 2003 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine

Pours a clear garnet color with a quarter inch ivory head that dissipates quickly.
Aroma is imitation cherry, sweet, becoming sherry-like with a vinous, almost vinegary character. There's a bit of underlying horse blanket funk.
Flavor is fairly medicinal. It's much drier than anticipated from the aroma. Stale malt overcomes the initially winey profile, leading to a peppery, bitter finish. Hints of fruit tease me into thinking there will be more flavor. As it warms, the flavor more closely aligns with the aroma. Still somewhat disappointing.
Body is moderate, with fairly high carbonation. There's a substantial alcohol warmth.
Overall, the aroma promised a lot more than the flavor delivered. I was hoping for much more sourness, given the aroma.

750ml bottle served in a Duvel tulip.
A: Pours a beautiful dark color. Clear. Forms a thick, solid and creamy beige head. Good persistence and some spotty lacings left in the glass
S: Sweet nose. Strong notes of caramel. Red fruits. Spicy too: notes of honey, black pepper. Flowery hops and Belgian yeasts in the end
T: Follows the nose: sweet and fruity. Strong notes of caramel and crystal malts. Notes of honey, black pepper and red fruits. Flowery hops. In overall, a sweet, malty, peppery and watery taste. Mild hops bitterness in the very end. A bit metallic too
M: Light, watery and slightly molasses body. Medium to low carbonation. Caramel and pepper as aftertaste
O: Good drinkability. Quite close to an amber ale, in fact. Too mild spiciness to a Saison but still a pleasant beer

3.65/5 rDev -1.6%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 3.75
How this is categorized as a saison is beyond me. As a big fan of the IV (an excellent saison) and the VI (saison/wit hybrid imo) I figured it was time to retry this one as it has been a couple of years and I didn't really remember much about it.
Pours a deep ruby/amber color with a thick white-ish head. Quite dark for a saison, but amber saisons are out there...
Nose; caramel, ripe fruits, brown sugar, this is smelling and looking a lot like a Belgian Amber.
Taste; yup, straight up Belgian Amber ale. Faint spice/yeast character, sweet fruits, caramel, some grains, nothing saison about it aside from the fact that it is somewhat dry. This is a prime example of how the term/category of "farmhouse ale" is stupid. Just because it's brewed in a "farmhouse brewery" doesn't necessarily mean you will have a beer that is a saison/saison like.
Sweet and creamy, a little dry, but not nearly dry enough for a saison.
Overall; this is a great Belgian Amber, a style that does very little for me, but this one was quite good. If you're looking for a saison fix, skip this one and grab the IV or the VI and you won't be dissapointed. If you like a good Belgian Amber, grab this one.

Recently stumbled across my notes from The Festival 2012. Lets do this!
A - Poured a clear crimson hue with a thin off white head that faded rather quickly to leave behind a thin off white halo.
S - Aromas of faint malty sweetness, light darker fruits, caramel, spice, and rather fake cherry cough syrup.
T - Taste is like the nose, not bad enough with light figgy sweetness, caramel, spice notes, and them wham, medicinal cherries.
M - Mouthfeel isnt bad, nice carbonation but still feels a bit heavy/syrupy.
O - Overall, not my favourite one at all. Way too much fake cherry here for my taste.

I had a glass of Jandrain V Saison at Lord Hobo in Cambridge on the recommendation of one of the servers. I was glad to try this interesting take on the style.
Appearance (4/5): Jandrain V pours a hazy straw/yellow color with a minimal white head. It has that typical, great look that quality saisons often have. Nice, tight bubbles and a bit of carbonation is visible when looking at the beer from above.
Smell (3.75/5): Some Brett and peppery, yeasty funkiness going on here in the aroma! One thing that's very interesting about this particular saison is that the Brett has imparted a bit of lactic tartness to the beer. Underneath the funkier smells I detect some light sweet malt. Interesting, though not quite a beauty.
Taste (3.75/5): Lightly noble hoppy flavor that I didn't detect in the smell hits first. A bit of tartness from the Brett flexes in the middle and back. Spicy, peppery, musty yeast is also quite notable and makes this more than your average, run-of-the-mill saison. There's also a fruitiness that comes on late that tastes similar to black cherry. The flavor is fairly complexed, though a bit jumbled and incoherent. The unpredictability keeps the beer interesting, but I'm not enamored by the flavor. The 7% is well hidden.
Mouthfeel (3.5/5): The mouthfeel lacks in the carbonation department a bit (it would have benefited from a more spritely carbonation level), but the beer has good medium body to it.
Overall (3.75/5): Jandrain V Saison is a very interesting take on the farmhouse ale style from a Belgian brewery that we don't hear a whole lot from. Its complex yeastiness is something most American breweries couldn't hope to reproduce. It's definitely worth a try, but I wouldn't name it as a standout in the style category.

4.03/5 rDev +8.6%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Cherry amber with craggy pitted sandy head that refreshes from a stream of bubbles in the middle.
Apple spice, waxy yeast, brown bread and some orangey US hops on the nose.
Stewed apple, red pear, autumn leaves, raisin bread and dried cranberries with an ester hit, a hint of cocoa, slight yeasty white pepper there tangerine and tea leaf hops.
Citrus finish and spicy linger.
Medium, round, some chew, no burn.
There are lots of other reviews here talking about honey and lemon like this is a saison, but that's not what going on.
This is an amber farmhouse ale ,like Jenlain, dry-hopped with Amarillo (which everyone also seems to miss.)
There's also a mystery spice in there, which shows up big, making this pretty wintery.
Some fruity notes recall a dubbel but the spice and hops hide that along with any distinctive yeast character.
Unique and interesting but not quite extraordinary - falls short of JJ's other numbered beers.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Beautiful amber and ruby color. Though, last drops were a murky brown. It poured a thick and persistent off-white head.
Piney and earthy hops and fruity aroma, notes of figs, medicine, condiments, licorice and mandarin.
Very complex beer with mutating flavors, licorice, prunes, pine, citrus, mostly grapefruit and mandarin. Also present, toasted notes, spices and condiments. Dry and condimented aftertaste.
The 7%ABV is very well hidden. Still it has a light body with a light carbonation with small bubbles.
Very refreshing beer but also complex and tasteful. With Saisons you have to drink it without any expectations, past experiences comparisons or fixed standards, as long you follow that rule you will encounter good surprises. Not following this rule results in mix discounters of opinions in the evaluations.

Only Malcolm Gladwell could bring Fleetwood Mac into the design discussion and make wonderful sense. In his enlightening talk about innovation and misconceptions about what it takes to become a success, Gladwell uses this unlikely metaphor for creative synthesis in an entertaining entrée into the concepts of his forthcoming book, Outliers. Genius and creativity don't necessarily spring forth unbidden, he says; they require time and support to experiment, to try and even fail. During this time of economic crisis and eventual renewal, he hopes that the design community will be able to "rediscover the true roots of creativity and innovation."
Malcolm Gladwell has been a staff writer with The New Yorker magazine since 1996. His 1999 profile of Ron Popeil won a National Magazine Award, and in 2005 he was named one of Time magazine's "100 Most Influential People." He is the author of two books, The Tipping Point: How Little Things Make a Big Difference, (2000) and Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking (2005), both of which were number one New York Times bestsellers. From 1987 to 1996, Gladwell was a reporter with the Washington Post, where he covered business and science, and then served as the newspaper's New York City bureau chief. He graduated from the University of Toronto, Trinity College, with a degree in history. He was born in England, grew up in rural Ontario, and now lives in New York City.

When designing for theater, says Gail Anderson, you never know if the play will be hit and your work will be seen for a long time, or if the show will get panned and close after a week. Using SpotCo's work on 9 to 5 as an example, she illustrates how campaigns must work as well in print and on the sides of buses as on billboards and marquees. She also shares why "being lovely" makes her a good collaborator.

Can You Tornado-Proof A Home?
How to protect your house from an EF-5 tornado--and why FEMA doesn't recommend you even try.
As with so many "is it possible" type questions, the answer of whether you can have a tornado-proof house is a resounding "well, yes, but." In this case, that sentence goes: "Well, yes, but it would be prohibitively expensive and ugly, and nobody really recommends you even bother."
What is tornado-proofing? According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), for a structure to be "tornado-proof" it must be, literally, missile-proof. The most damaging and unpredictable destructive force of a tornado isn't the swirling winds, it's the debris that the tornado picks up and hurls around, often at speeds in excess of 200mph. "Missile" is the right word when you're talking about a refrigerator flying through the air at 200mph.
The weak points in your house are windows and doors, obviously, but the most dangerous entry point may come as a surprise: it's your garage door. Garage doors aren't usually very sturdy, and if they blow down, the rush of wind can cause your house to become pressurized, like a can of soda. In extreme cases, wind can explode into the main house and blow down walls or even the ceiling. The other possible danger is in traditional insulation: air at this speed can cause serious damage, and if air can get between your walls at tornado-level speeds, they don't stand much of a chance.
Can you tornado-proof a whole house? Sure. You can live in a house made of solid concrete, with a steel door and no windows. You'd probably have to build it from scratch, though.
Uhhhh... Well, yeah, that doesn't sound like a real pleasant home to me, either. That's why nobody really tornado-proofs an entire house; it's expensive and for the 99 percent of the time that you're not being bombarded with a tornado, you'll hate it. But that's really the only way to fully tornado-proof a home: thick concrete, properly anchored in the ground, will withstand pretty much anything. There are lots of products that call themselves tornado-proof, from Pittsburgh Corning glass to reinforced concrete-and-styrofoam insulation blocks, and they're not bad ideas, but they're expensive and don't address many of the weakest points of a home. If you've got a garage, all the wildly expensive tornado-proof glazed glass in the world won't make your home impenetrable.
So what should you do FEMA does not recommend attempting to tornado-proof your home. Instead, it recommends a safe room: an internal room, like a bathroom or office or large closet, which can be modified to meet the International Code Council (ICC)-500 standard. ICC-500 is the product of a joint, decades-long effort by FEMA and Texas Tech University's Wind Science and Engineering department, known as WISE, to figure out exactly how best to protect a home from out-of-control winds.
You can view the complete document here, but in short, it requires that this room be fortified to withstand a 5 on the Enhanced Fujita scale, typically referred to as EF-5 level winds. EF-5 level winds are in excess of 200mph, so the FEMA code stipulates that the room must be reinforced, typically with concrete but sometimes with steel or even a combination of steel and wood.
Safe rooms can be retrofitted, but that can be very expensive, having to tear out walls and such. FEMA suggests, for a lower-priced option, to build an entirely new structure within the house, preferably in the basement or garage. It's not really the kind of project you want to do yourself; they have to be anchored in the ground, and the materials are necessarily difficult to manipulate. FEMA estimates that a family-sized safe room, which could double as storage or a closet, should cost around $6,600 to $8,700. There are theoretically programs to assist homeowners with this cost, although they won't cover the entire project.
Underground structures are generally preferable, but have distinct downsides: they may not be accessible to disabled people, and they can be flooded much more easily than above-ground shelters.
What about all that tornado-proof tech? There's a lot of interesting stuff out there that claims to be tornado-proof, from steel-reinforced hollow doors (which cost as much as an entire safe room) to a cabling system that anchors your home to the ground. Tornado-proof windows, like those from Pittsburgh Corning, are similar to bulletproof glass: it's usually laminated with a film and multiple kinds of glass, so it can stretch without shattering. Other materials, like polycarbonate, are sometimes used, though visibility is not usually quite as good as regular glass.
Tornado-proof glass isn't a prohibitively expensive retrofit, unlike many of these other improvements. But we have to go back to what FEMA recommends as the safest option: an aftermarket safe room.
I have observe speaking in ruff terms, that debry projectiles tend to fly sideways (missels), so tornado proof room might be one that is simuliar to the above structure, but underground.
I have not seen many tornados digging holes or ditches.
Though a flying car or tractor might come down directly, so the roof should be made strong enough to withstand this type of impact too.
Take a look at thin shell concrete domes like those at www.monolithic.com for a good candidate to replace the homes that were lost. These structures are capable of surviving earthquakes, hurricanes, wild fires, and even tornadoes. They cost about what a custom built home of the same square footage would go for depending on the interior finish. They are also extremely energy efficient.
Talk to Professor Michael Cobb, Physics Professor of Southeast Missouri University about the abilities of the domes and why they are so safe. Ask the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, of Okmulgee, Oklahoma about why they built a dome to house their school. Ask about the FEMA grants that can pay up to 75% of the cost of construction.
Whether a safe room or a whole house, Oklahoma has a risk scenario that doesn't quit just because you have one. The same construction design that could save yours or a family members' life in an eF-5 could then keep them from getting out alive if it floods. The tornado corridor is also a flood corridor, and even in a drought year there is still a lot of water just under ground level throughout many areas in the region.
Insisting on rebuilding--with taxpayer monies--right back in the middle of the same place the last building got leveled at should mean that YOU DONE BEEN HELPED. NEVER AGAIN. Not one penny. Just like the brain donors of St. Louis who refuse a floodwall.
There are more choices than WISE and the sole solution of a cenral shelter. We built about 1200 Archimede houses as beach resorts and ski resorts in 12 countries since 1981. Many were hit by earthquakes and hurricanes. In one instance, 24 of these built at Guana Bay beach in Sint Maarten were hit with the full fury of hurricane Luis on Sept 5, 1995. The hurricane just sat on the island for 12 hrs, destroying 80% of all the roofs, closing it to tourism for 2 years. The winds gusts were clocked at 240+ mph on that beach, sending many conventional concrete houses to the ground. And yet we suffered damage to the balcony railing only. It is true that we had just finished installing quality hurricane windows, but I was there during LUIS and can testify to the terrifying noise and bombardement by all sorts of projectiles. All trees lost all their leaves and concrete pools were floated out to sea.
So we have since improved on the concept to include tornadoes and tsunamis (incidentally Popular Science has an Archive piece on the system I patented in 1980: www.popsci.com/archive-viewer?id=iwAAAAAAMBAJ&pg=80&query=jacques%20poirier ).
I am preparing this web site ( see baja6.com) to add our tornado defense strategy to the other extreme defenses before August .
An architect's point of view on tornadoes
I'd like to thank the author for an interesting article, but tornado-proofing your home does not necessarily require building a reinforced concrete bunker of a house. There are other alternatives to protect buildings, cheaper and more effective, which safeguard the integrity of the whole building.
There are two reasons for the destruction of buildings and death of people. The first one is that the way we live affects the life of our planet. Human activities with bursts of violence, wars, wrongly designed and placed buildings cause imbalance to the natural elements of the Earth, create energy blocks impeding the flow of the elements' energy, namely, the air element.
In this connection we should remember the words of Max Hendel who said that "we live in a world which is governed by the laws of nature ... And we have no power to change these laws. If we know these laws and cleverly cooperate with them, the forces of nature become out best helpers. But if we act against them, they become the most dangerous enemies, capable of bringing awful destruction."
For a designer, an architect, this means that even at the building design stage, one needs to take into account the influence of all these forces of nature as helpers.
The second reason, stemming from of the first one, is that the tornado airflow spinning at a high speed counterclockwise influences the gravity flows of entropic time, which are released by the space, attracts them to the Earth and focuses, keeps them near to it, while the tornado trunk is acting.
For a certain period these flows are stronger than the gravitational force produced by the Earth, which is why the overgravitation phenomenon occurs in the Tornado Alley region and all things that are on the land within the reach of the tornado trunk start to fall up.
In order to tornado-proof buildings, one needs to build outer walls on the basis of the radial symmetry principle and a roof pyramidal in shape slightly curved outwards with a light-weight multi-layer pyramid on the top which will be able to retain flows of time coming from the Earth above the building and will not allow the time flows coming from the space to pull the building up.
In order to reduce a tornado's power in the usual tornado alleys and make it not so terrible, it is also necessary to create in these alleys a network of towers – light-weight metal structures at least 35 m tall, as a possible option, capped with special light-weight multi-layer pyramids and rings-bracelets around them. This network must be 350 x 350 m.
Destructive force of tornadoes in the regions where such towers will be placed can be reduced to 62%.
However, there is another, easier and cheaper way to solve the problem of tornadoes in combination with other problems.
Cottage-houses suffer destruction both from tornadoes as a demonstration of the air element's force and the other elements such as fire, water, land. To eliminate all these threats together for one particular building, it is necessary to design and build energy-universal buildings so that they could "cooperate" with all the forces of nature.
It means that the shape of the roof and the shape of the exterior walls must be designed so that they could attract as a magnet the energies of all four elements at the same time, facilitate their passing rather than interfere with them. With the construction of energy-friendly-universal cottages, we won't need any more special multi-layer pyramids to subdue tornadoes.

Wow! What was that last comment about? Too bad these comments aren't edited a little bit more.
For my money the Monolithic dome has it in spades. You can bury them if you want to. I'm sure it would be easier to bury a monolithic dome than any other type of structure. Just let the engineers know what your plans are.
However, that is an added expense. Most people don't want to live underground. Most people want windows. I would suggest storm shutters, and storm doors.
I am disappointed with the author's assertion that we shouldn't bother trying to do better because it is:
"prohibitively expensive and ugly, and nobody really recommends you even bother."
It's important to protect yourself, your family, your hearth and home. As an adult I don't want to rely on the government to protect me from storms. That's my responsibility. The dome will lower your insurance rates as well. The author needs to reconsider the importance of storm proofing your house.
No I don't have one yet, but I sure want one. Attitudes like the autor's make it hard to think ouside of the box.
As the above reply mentions, monolithic domes can be both beautiful and effective. The website http://www.MONOLITHIC.com lists their wind resistance at up to 700MPH. My dream is to build such a dome atop a mountain, of which there are plenty in my local area. There are two such domes within 20 miles of here; they're both well-built, they look great and they blend well with the surrounding landscape. I don't know where the author obtained his information, which reads more like an opinion piece than a well-researched article. But, a quick visit to http://www.monolithic.com will reveal the weaknesses of the author's claims in short order. By the way, most of the heavier debris that is flung by tornados only reaches shallow heights. And, the reinforced concrete walls of a monolithic dome will provide the best protection against such air-borne 'missiles'. Of course, nothing is surefire/foolproof. But, if you have the money to build such a structure, then, why not do so, especially if you live in an area prone to natural or manmade disasters?!

Zucchini Soup With Parmigiano-Reggiano and Basil
Makes about 6 3/4 cups (4 to 6 servings)
This recipe dispenses a goodly amount of summer's prolific vegetable: lightly caramelized, then simmered and pulverized. The result is almost too thick and chunky to be called a soup, but that means it's substantial enough to serve for dinner.
You can top it with cooked, shredded chicken and a dollop of pesto for the very hungry omnivores among you. The quantity makes next-day leftovers a reality.
Serve with crusty bread. Adapted from "Franny's: Simple Seasonal Italian," by Andrew Feinberg, Francine Stephens and Melissa Clark (Artisan, 2013).
8 medium zucchini
1 medium Spanish onion
6 to 8 scallions
Leaves from 4 to 6 stems flat-leaf parsley
3 cloves garlic
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
3/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
About 6 large basil leaves, plus more for garnish
2 cups water, or more as needed
Freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for garnish
Trim the zucchini ends, then cut each vegetable into chunks. Finely chop the onion, scallions, parsley and garlic; piling them together is okay.
Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add one-third of the zucchini chunks and stir to coat. Cook for a few minutes, just until the bottom side is golden and lightly caramelized, then transfer to a mixing bowl. Repeat two more times (no need to add more oil) to use of all the zucchini.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the pot. Once it shimmers, add the onion-scallion mixture and stir to coat. Season with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Reduce the heat to medium; cover and cook for about 8 minutes, so the vegetables soften.
Coarsely chop the 6 basil leaves.
Return the zucchini to the pot, then season with the remaining teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Stir in the water, which will not quite cover the zucchini. Increase the heat to high and cook just until bubbles form at the edges, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for about 12 minutes. The zucchini should be soft but not disintegrating. Stir in the chopped basil.
Use an immersion (stick) blender to puree the mixture into a thick soup that retains some small chunks of zucchini. If it's too thick for your liking, add water as needed. Remove from the heat. Taste, and adjust seasoning as needed.
Divide among individual bowls or deep cups. Tear a few basil leaves over each portion, then grate a little Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over each one as well. Serve warm or at room temperature.

How virus sleuths and public health officials track the cause of a mysterious illness
When a mysterious disease fells people - as happened in California recently, with as many as 20 children experiencing unexplained paralysis - teams of physicians and epidemiologists quickly mobilize. Perhaps you saw the movie "Contagion"? The idea is to find the culprit before it spreads but also to prevent public panic.
First Apple, now Google hit with kids' app lawsuit
Last month, 4- and 5-year-old brothers in New York quickly spent $65.95 in real money to buy virtual goods in Marvel's Run Jump Splash game on the family tablet. They were able to rack up the charges without entering a password. And for that, the boys' mother has joined a class-action lawsuit filed Tuesday against Google, accusing the company of deceiving consumers about its in-app purchase system, which critics say makes it too easy for kids to spend money on their Android devices.

Perfect Grilled Steak
For juicy meat and a great crust, choose a thicker cut such as rib eye. Because this type of steak takes longer to cook, it will have time to develop a nice sear.

Subscribe to Martha Stewart LivingIngredients
- 1 porterhouse, flank, or rib-eye steak, 1 3/4 pounds and 1 1/2 inch thick
- Coarse salt and ground pepper

Our band Toubab Krewe tours constantly. We own a green 1995 Silver Eagle 45 ft tour bus. Given the resources we could transform our mobile home into an eco-friendly residence. We would convert our engine to bio-diesel and in-stall a solar panel to power our outlets. We could install a water tank that we would perpetually refill with tap water and Brita filter in each city. We host hundreds of guests each year on our bus at festivals and theater shows alike. This bus transformation would help us become the ambassadors of sustainable and Green living that we aspire to.
How do you encourage your fans to take on more sustainable habits?
We will document the entire transformation of our bus. Our fans will see the whole process and be encouraged to help guide us to further our changing modes of sustainability.

SALT LAKE CITY — In the month since Utah passed a controversial package of immigration reform legislation the country's been buzzing with praise and criticism.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Tuesday reiterated its appreciation for the legislation. On the same day, Bishop John C. Wester, of the Catholic Diocese of Salt Lake, visited with President Barack Obama to discuss Utah's approach to immigration reform.
In the meantime, the chair of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee called on the U.S. government this week to sue Utah over the laws. Republicans in Utah are gathering support in hopes of getting some of the legislation repealed.
Gov. Gary Herbert signed four bills into law March 15. The laws, among other things, would establish local enforcement of federal immigration laws and give undocumented immigrants already living in Utah a legal avenue to work. The laws will not go into effect until July 2013 and would require a waiver from the federal government.
The LDS Church published a short affirmation on its website of its support of the immigration legislation. A spokesman said the post was meant to "reiterate" what the Church has already said, not to serve as a new statement.
"The Church has spoken a number of times about the issue of immigration," the post reads. "Specifically, it has spoken in support of the Utah Compact and has described the package of bills passed by the Utah Legislature, taken together, as a 'responsible approach' to the difficult question of immigration reform."
The LDS Church's position is based on three basic principles:
"The commandment to 'love thy neighbor.'"
"The importance of keeping families intact."
"The federal government's obligation to secure its borders."
In his conversation with U.S. leaders, Wester stressed similar values, according to a report in Intermountain Catholic.
"What I mentioned to the president was that my strategy is to put a human face on immigration," he said. "I think people, when they respond to an issue, they stay at a cerebral level, but when you put a human face on it they get their hearts involved and they tend to take a different approach."
Wester was one of about 70 religious, business, labor, civil rights leaders and law enforcers Obama gathered for a discussion of a national overhaul of the immigration system.
"The president urged meeting participants to take a public and active role to lead a constructive and civil debate on the need to fix the broken immigration system," the White House said. "He stressed that in order to successfully tackle this issue they must bring the debate to communities around the country and involve many sectors of American society in insisting that Congress act to create a system that meets our nation's needs for the 21st century and that upholds America's history as a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants."
U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith, chair of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee, doesn't feel the same. Earlier this week, the Texas legislator sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder urging him to sue Utah.
"This is hypocritical," Smith said in a statement to The Associated Press. "If (the Justice Department) chooses not to take legal action against Utah's unconstitutional law, it will be clear the Administration bases their decisions on their own political views rather than constitutional principle."
Smith asserted that Utah's legislation would interfere with a national solution.
If the Obama administration is "serious about having a uniform immigration policy rather than a 'patchwork' of state immigration laws you profess to oppose," he wrote, the country "needs to take action against the Utah law."

Table to illustrate suspension of prebends at Durham, 1848–63
Stat. 3 & 4 Vic. c. 113 s. 8 enacted that six canonries were to be suspended: the 1st and 2nd vacant canonries were to be suspended, the 3rd to be filled; the 4th and 5th to be suspended; the 6th to be filled; and the 7th and 8th to be suspended. Stat. 4 & 5 Vic. s. 9 sanctioned the annexation of prebends to archdeaconries.
The Orders in Council of 4 June 1841 (annexing the 11th prebend to the chair of Greek and Classical Literature in University of Durham) and of 27 Aug. 1842 (annexing the next vacant prebend to the archdeaconry of Northumberland) took precedence over this sequence of suspending prebends (Lond. Gaz. nos. 19986, 20135).
