Nope. Your concept of "singularity" is incorrect. It means ERROR, you have gone out of bounds. You can be certain that the following professor never taught that "the universe was once an infinitely dense, infinitely small point."Originally Posted by Aethelwulf
"We mentioned that the FLRW cosmology begins with a singularity. This is a much more serious breakdown than a flat tire or a cracked engine block. It is, in fact, a physical impossibility -- a region where the laws of physics break down altogether and even spacetime comes to an end." -- Tony Rothman
What does it mean for something to be "infinitely dense"? How do you make meaning out of this? It's meaningless. It's not a matter of personal choice.
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
No I really mean that it is a personal choice. Some of us embrace singularities - I don't embrace all singularities, just this one. I like it, and I know many people that like it also. I understand exactly what a singularity is, please don't partonize me. I meant this really as it sounds - I personally do not see it as a breakdown in theory.
Doesn't matter how many times you say it - not true. The mainstream BB theory stops short of a point as origin.You have such a point as the origin of the mainstream model the BB.
Well, I've already established with another poster here that essentially we have dealt with BB appearing from a point is in fact what current theory says because ''we have attached it to have this significance''. Anything you may say is clearly not maintream - or how we traditionally describe the BB.
No; Earlier attempts at the theory said that.
It's been revised by Hawking
Hawking later revised his position in A Brief History of Time (1988) where he stated "There was in fact no singularity at the beginning of the universe" (p50). This revision followed from quantum mechanics, in which general relativity must break down at times less than the Planck time. Hence general relativity cannot be used to show a singularity.
Read my Times below Planck Time thread in technology.
I have debated this topic concerning Hawkings idea's and they are mostly circular. I don't find it all too surprising Hawking has revised his beliefs. Penrose who wrote the singularity theorems with him, now believes in a cyclic universe theory.
The are just attempts on getting QM's to describe something - just because they do not permit singularities because of the violation of the uncertainty principle does not surprise me either - I'd expect that the beginning of time was so unique that perhaps a violation like this is to be expected.
We being who? I can vouch for a couple of university's Astronomy departments. But I guess that is nothing next your interpretation of what another person on an internet forum said.
Sorry, no matter how you squirm it does not change the fact that the simplistic extrapolations you present here are not how the topic is taught or interpreted these days. Your position is no more valid than that of someone who seems a kitten grow and predicts that one day it will be larger than the planet.
I have moved this thread from Q&A to Astronomy.
The explanation of the Q&A forum says the following:
For the moment, we'll see if this discussion can stay out of ATMThis section of the forum is for astronomy and space exploration questions with straightforward, generally accepted answers.
Questions that are likely to lead to extended discussion about the correct answer, or that have no clearcut correct answer, should be posted in the forum most appropriate to the topic of the question. If a question does lead to such discussion, it may be split off or moved entirely to a more appropriate forum by a moderator. Since it's hard to tell how a discussion will go, posting such questions will generally be treated as a judgment matter and not a rule violation.
Questions taking issue or raising concerns with the mainstream viewpoint should be posted in the ATM forum. Posting questions along these lines will generally be treated as a rule violation.
You really need to lose the attitude. To open a thread with a chip already installed on your shoulder is asking for trouble.
Penrose showed conclusively that general relativity
predicts a singularity at time zero. But the concept
of a singularity doesn't work in quantum mechanics.
So either general relativity or quantum mechanics
or both need to be modified in order to avoid giving
conflicting predictions at and close to time zero.
So the current best model is unable to make good
predictions about conditions close to time zero.

Also, I've learned to take what Hawking says with a pinch of salt now. He's certainly not the beginning and end of discussion. He has already made fanticiful claims of a theory of everything, along with thinking that information is lost in black holes. He's been wrong and pretty much a science dictator all his life.
Well, it doesn't work in mathematics, either, and all these theories are expressed via mathematics. It's like dividing by zero. It doesn't work. It's undefined.
Good, and correct.Originally Posted by Aethelwulf
Yes, on some things he has been wrong. Same as Einstein.Originally Posted by Aethelwulf
Well, that's taking it too far. He has over 200 publications, most of which are way over your head and mine, so how would we know? And of course, there are no science dictators, only peers.Originally Posted by Aethelwulf
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
Maybe it was taking it too far. He does seem to move the finger more in his assertions nowadays mind you. Like dictating a theory of everything recently, to his conjecture that information is lost in a black hole... and he wouldn't listen to the physicists. I remember the so-called Susskind-Hawking debates on information. The physicists would get quite brutal sometimes.
I am a big Susskind fan however.
He may be a very knowledgeable physicist, but I never thought much of his books, especially his latest. He is not a great popularizer. Many others are much better at that. And I thought that latest book of his (and Mlodinow) was nothing new - he just took Guth's "free lunch" idea, which is decades old, and called it the Grand Design. I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm saying it's old. On the other hand, the book did show Stephen's sense of humor. He's a pretty funny guy, which is somewhat remarkable, given his illness.
That may be a mistake. I'm often a big fan of whoever wrote the book I'm currently reading. I was very impressed with Alex Vilenkin's entry. But there's currently no way to test his idea, and it doesn't look like there's going to be for quite a long time, so my fandom has waned. Now I'm beginning to wonder why so many respected physicists, including Susskind, are speculating about ideas that are not currently testable and, in fact, may never be!
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
I think half the time he has been popularized is because of his ground-breaking work... more recently though, he has acted as a judge on scientific theories... most of this I bet was a publicity stunt... a certain Baron from my country made harsh remarks on this theory of everything... I will look and find details.
Mathematically it works just fine. General relativity
predicts a singularity, and that by itself is no problem.
The singularity that general relativity predicts is the
beginning of time.
The problem arises when you try to reconcile what GR
predicts with what other branches of science predict.
The example of a mathematical singularity that I keep
presenting is the Earth's poles. When you are at the
south pole, you no longer have a longitude, because
the longitude is, as you say, undefined. But that does
not cause any physical problem. It is possible to be
at the south pole and have no longitude. The problem
with time zero is not mathematical.

Aethelwulf. After Einstein completed the General Theory in 1915, he embarked upon an attempt to unify all the forces of physics, having seen the early success of Maxwell in unifying electricity, magnetism and optics, under the one umbrella of electromagnetism. At the time he was widely regarded as a fool amongst his peers, who nevertheless respected his earlier work. Towards the end of his career, after he passed away,strides were made in unifying the strong and weak forces by,notably, Feynmann, Schwinger, and Tomonaga, and then, in the sixties, Weinberg, Glashow, and Salaam managed to produce the electroweak synthesis,predicting new particles (the Z 0) and it's neutral currents. Only then did many see that Einstein's instinct for picking the correct problem to work on was as unerring as it was in 1905......the big prize would be total unification of the strong, weak, electromagnetic and gravitational forces...the unified field theory for which he endured much disparate ridicule.
In a similar vein, Hawking proved early on to be a math prodigy, and as such developed physical insight into the processes proximate to event horizons, melding developing mathematical theories into his physics and engaging some of the best minds in the world in his erudite excursions, which require training similar to his to read explicitly. He hardly has warranted being called a dictator, but merely does his job of asking questions....something scientists thrive on, and he often picks gentleman's bets of minor worth but immense fun and bragging rights...like a pair of friends fishing or playing golf for beers.
So, we don't know it all. That's the game. Data banks slowly unravel the intersecting error ellipses of experiments and continue to refine our searches for new physics...like the Higgs @ the LHC, to pick new models. It's an exciting time to have an interest in physics. pete

This is true. Mathematically, from a relativistic viewpoint there are no troubles.. in fact, infinitely small points are very much welcome. It's only when you invoke QM that troubles begin... or so they say. Some of us, want to embrace these difficulties than rather seeing it as the ultimatum of all problems.
I'm not saying we know it all. What I am saying is that we should not throw out these infinities as a breakdown in the theory. I believe also Dirac held a similar point. In regards to current day theory, we try and renormalize these theories... Dirac was largely unsupportive of this idea.
Of mainstream scientific theory (GR, QCD/QED/QM) only one says there is a singularity, and that prediction can not be verified (surely not soon, and possibly not in principal). In that sense a singularity is much less a fact than something like time dilation.
Besides theory there is a mainstream model of how the universe works: the standard cosmological model, of which the 'moment of creation' is not a part.
So it is true only in a very limited sense that the mainstream says there is a singularity at the beginning of the BB (or for that matter, at the center of a black hole).
I actually don't care anymore, only that the mainstream model does predict a point. Where my trouble had laid, was with people who claimed the BB did not present a model far in the past that a curvature was infinite. Saying our model did not is highly against the mainstream.
The BB, as taught in my astrophysics class, starts AFTER the 10^-37 seconds, not at the beginning. As stated, since the laws of physics did not operate before that slight amount (but very important) time, there is no singularity in the BB. It is indeed overuse of that term that has caused confusion
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
BB theory is more than just GR. It does not predict a point because the model breaks down before then making any extrapolations invalid predictions. That is the mainstream view, taught in universities. If you are willing to make this sort of extrapolation why not go further? After it reaches a point the universe will expand again but with its spatial dimensions swapped. After all - plotting lines on a graph and then putting a straight line through them implies that. Got to be true.
Hello, Troka!
The Big Bang was the beginning, if there was one, and
whenever it may have been. The description of the Big
Bang given in your class, on the other hand, may have
begun with events after 10^-37 seconds, as there isn't
anything known about any earlier time.
(Actually, I would argue that nothing earlier than about
one second is remotely close to being a sure thing. At
that time nucleosynthesis began, and observations of
isotopic abundances support calculations of the rates
of change of density and temperature over the next
couple of minutes.)
I think it is safe to say that the laws of physics operate
at all times. But we don't necessarily know what those
laws are. There is no reason to think that the laws we
currently know did not operate at the very beginning.
However, there is very good reason to think that the
laws we know are not enough. Something beyond the
known laws happened at the beginning. Something
in addition to the currently-known laws.
General relativity predicts a singularity at the beginning.
Quantum mechanics says that prediction can't be right.
So we don't know whether there was a singularity or not.
We need to extend the laws of physics to find out.

"The other planets? Well, they just happen to be there, but the

Do you have a reference to support that, or are you just basing it on what the name sounds like it should describe. You have people who studied astrophysics/cosmology in the past saying that isn't the case. Now we have a current student saying that it isn't the case. Even good old Wikipedia says "The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model that explains the early development of the Universe.[1]"
Perhaps I should have said that the Big Bang was the
beginning of everything that we know of: The observable
Universe and at least some distance beyond what we can
observe. It was the beginning of the cosmic expansion
that we observe. Something may well have existed before
that, and something may exist which did not participate in
the Big Bang (other universes in the multiverse hypothesis).
Saying that the Big Bang started after the Big Bang started
doesn't work for me. Consistent descriptions of conditions
start a miniscule fraction of a second after time zero. Time
zero is defined by the Big Bang theory.
Some definitions or descriptions of "Big Bang":
1.The explosion of dense matter that, according to current
cosmological theories, marked the origin of the universe
(cosmology) the cosmic explosion that is hypothesized to
have marked the origin of the universe
The Big Bang was an event which led to the formation
of the universe, according to the prevailing cosmological
theory of the universe's early development (known as the
Big Bang theory or Big Bang model).

China Glaze
Nail Laquer
Sort By
I bought this after hearing great thing but I wasn't impressed with it... It takes a long time to dry, chips, and you need multiple coats if you don't want it to he sheet. The colors were great but I won't be buying these again.
This brand of nail polish chips by the next day😡 really pretty colors tho but isn't long lasting like I expected... If you want it to last long put a top coat!!
Neon Pink
Loveee this color...this is usually my go to summer color...It always looks great on my toes and hands! if you have a summer tan or naturally tanned skin this will look wonderful on you...I just wish it did not chip so fast..other than that it's a winner!!

Chips too quick even with a base and top coat
I really love the shades a hues of China Glaze's collection, and I really want to like them, but after numerous times of wearing them (with a base and top coat) this stuff chips the next day. I don't even do much with my hands for it to happen. I've heard a lot of my friends saying the same thing, so I know I'm not the only one. I would buy this nail polish if it didn't chip so much,
Love this color
China Glaze seems to be a reallly good nail polish. I only have 1 bottle, but the texture gives really good covering, you only need like 1 or 2 layers and the color looks awesome. They have a lot of pretty colors and their orange/yellow shades seem to be really good without being nasty. I tried other colors for my toes at the salon, and they look pretty!
Great colors
I love China Glaze. It goes on smooth and always looks great! I really like how they came out with the Ombré kits! It doubled my China Glaze collection. (:
Love These Polishes.. but only some of the time
I'm going to review them shade by shade since I have a lot of different ones:
181 Caribbean Temptation: I'm not really into shimmery nail polishes, but this one has a really cool dark purplish blue undertone to it. I don't think I would wear it at this point right now on my nails though.
182 Ruby Pumps: I absolutely love this sparkly red color. it is great for the holidays around Christmas.
202 Innocence: This light pink color is great for french nails or if you want to do designs on top.
544 Liquid Leather: Just a dark solid black. Goes on in about 2 coats, I used it all the time even for smaller designs with a tiny brush. Only bad thing is that it sometime runs after you place the top coat on the small designs.
625 For Audrey: very pretty darker sky blue. Can be streaky, but i think this is because i had bought this one at sallys. (something i noticed- when i buy these polishes from sallys, they're a little more watery or old. must be why they are so cheap, but sometimes the polishes are fine)
867 Re-fresh Mint: this color is a very very light mint/turquoise color. i like the color more in the bottle then i do on my nails. i think this might only be because i havent found the right colors to pair it with.
870 Happy Go Lucky: a very bright yellow, i wish it was just a little lighter and brighter. it sometimes can come out way too yellowy. sometimes stains nails if you do not use a base coat.
873 Flip Flop Fantasy: I am in love with this color and can never find anything like it. If you keep your hands in the sun a lot or go tanning in a tanning bed the color actually turns to a lighter version of this color. i know its kind of weird or gross, but the color is pretty faded too. definitely recommend this color for spring and summer.
934 Swing Baby: a very pretty metal-ly color. Kind of has a bronze/brown tint to it. very hard to match, but looks great with black in the winter time.
960 Papaya Punch: love this for summer, the name is so cute too. I only wish it was a little bit lighter of an orange.
1008 Purple Panic (neon): a neon pinkish purple. very very bright and daring.
1015 Celtic Sun: definitely as neon as it gets. such a great color, but as i said about one of the colors before, i bought this one as sallys and its extremely streaky and hard to get the solid color.
1063 Ultamate Holiday: such a gorgeous glitter nail polish with rainbow accents. only issue is that one it dries, even with a great top coat, the polish is very sandpaper like.
1198 Running in Circles: a glittery green, amazing for the holidays. would look great with ruby pumps for christmas!
overall i love china glaze polishes. there are so many amazing colors to choose from. although some do come out streaky, the color barely chips with a great top coat.

Love it!! My new favourite
I love this line of nail polish. The colours are gorgeous and the colour pink voltage is my new favourite.
I didn't even use a top coat and the polish lasted on my nails really well.
pool party and flying dragon are my fav. china glaze nail polish is the best for marbeling other wise they are very light and require 3 coats.
Flying Dragon: purple and it has sparkles in it
Pool Party: a hotish pink
all worth the money

A boat will help you out during certain times of the year. But, there are boat restrictions during the cyclone season so sometimes the government can/will keep you out. The best spots are accessible by plane/cargo ship/local guide. The other spots are found on small uninhabited atolls near the main spots. These waves are usually short, shallow, shifty, windprone and shark infested. Cross-up swells create havoc on these atols. Very dangerous for even the seasoned south pac.

The atmosphere of Sonoma is decidedly laid back and down home country style. But in wines, they are keeping up with the...Read More About Sonoma County
(cab-uhr-NAY sow-veeh-yawn) King of Red Many refer to Cabernet Sauvignon as the king of red grapes. Perhaps that title is due to its ability to grow worldwide in a number of climates, or to the fact that it produces wine with such character yet such diversity. Either way, this grape is responsible, as a whole or a partner, for some of the greatest wines in the world. In Bordeaux,...Read More About Cabernet Sauvignon

No expense was spared by a Baltimore investment manager to create the wine cellar of his dreams for his Greenspring Valley home. He started by asking his friend, architect Patrick Jarosinski of PDJ & Associates, to add a 320-square-foot wine cellar to a new pool house that was under construction. The basement, measuring 24-by-40-feet, is decorated to suggest a medieval dungeon. Trompe l'oeil vines climb up plaster walls painted to resemble stone, and two suits of armor guard the doors. A heavy wooden door leads to an anteroom, followed by a larger tasting room. A small gentlemen's lounge adjoins the anteroom.
The 275-square-foot lounge offers a clubby environment for relaxation. Historical military prints, leather furniture, and a flat-screen TV combine for a high reading on the testosterone gauge, underscored by a 19th-century painting over the fireplace, depicting a group of Englishmen drinking and playing cards, that gives a clue that frat-boy hijinks are allowed.
"Oh yeah, we've been down here blasting Bruce Springsteen," says Jarosinski.
Inside the wine cellar, wrought-iron Mediterranean sconces illuminate a collection exceeding 3,000 bottles. Cases of coveted 2000 Bordeaux are stacked up, their wood-carved labels bearing the chateau names that have become legendary: Margaux, Mouton Rothschild, Lafite Rothschild.
The homeowner, who says he didn't start drinking wine until he was in his late 20s, has a great deal of Bordeaux dating back to 1926, as well as a cognac from 1848. He points out a number of 100-point bottles, including several rated and signed by noted wine expert and Parkton resident Robert Parker. Other rare wines in the collection include a 1978 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru by Leroy, and a case of Screaming Eagle, a small Napa winery that produces only a few hundred cases per year.
The tasting room has an expandable table with benches. The owner wanted it to be a place he and his wife and their friends would enjoy lingering with glasses of wine and food.
"We entertain in here a lot. We can put sweaters on and have dinner in here," he says. "It's fun to share. That's what life's all about."
If he could plan his last meal on earth, the wine collector says he would drink a bit of Krug-Collection champagne, some white Domaine Leroy Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, maybe some red Domaine de la Romanée Conti La Tâche Monopole Grand Cru, and finish things off with a Sauterne from Château D'Yquem, each with the appropriate dish, of course.
"Over-the-top on the wine," he says, "and understated on the food."
Drinking wine is just another day at the office for Jerry Edwards. As owner of the catering company Chef's Expressions, Edwards spends much of his time planning menus, which invariably involves tasting wines and matching them with food.
Edwards, who loves to entertain, built his wine cellar last January as part of an addition to the Timonium home he has lived in for 10 years. He wanted a large open space for entertaining clients and friends, so he realigned his driveway and added a kitchen and living area where the driveway had been. The garage was converted into a 14-by-18-foot wine cellar that opens into the new living space.
Because Edwards had a wine cellar in his previous home, he had a pretty good idea what he wanted, and drew up the floor plan himself. He says he did not want his cellar to look like a wine shop, or a slick ad in a wine magazine.
"I wanted to build a cellar that looked like a farmer came in here and said, 'Here's where I'm going to store my wines,'" says Edwards, who was going for a rustic, Old World feeling.
Because the house was made from brick, he placed brick over the cinder block in the garage for a consistent appearance. But first, he wrapped the cinder block with plastic and insulation to prevent water damage inside the cellar.
The cellar floor is Tuscan tile with hand-laid pebbles. Knotty-pine cases, custom built by a carpenter, hold the bottles.
Edwards, who says he began exploring wine seriously around 1985, has a solid collection of Bordeaux, including 1982 and 1989 vintages. "For me, it's about the breadth of the collection. It's about having wines from all over the world," he says.
Edwards likes to collect unusual or rare wines, such as Chappellet and Lambert Bridge from northern California and Oregon's Beaux Frères, in which Robert Parker is an investor. Edwards also has a large collection of Chilean and Argentinian wines.
Among his favorite Italian wines is the 1999 Ornellaia, a so-called super-Tuscan red. He is also fond of the Australian Penfolds Grange Shiraz, which he calls "probably one of the finest wines ever made."
Edwards's collection currently stands at about 1,850 bottles, but his goal is to reach 3,000. And for him, it's not just about acquiring fine wine. He drinks wine several times a week, tasting up to 50 of them in that time. "I don't think you should hold a wine for more than 20 years," he says.
Bill and Kristen Withrow have been collecting wine for about 20 years, but they didn't have their own wine cellar until recently.
"I had all this wonderful wine in storage," says Bill Withrow. "And having a cellar was one of my goals." In 2006, the couple decided to build an 18-by-24-foot addition to their Annapolis home, with a basement to showcase their wine.
The cellar is built largely with hearts of redwood, the best part of the tree, Bill Withrow says. Wine cellar designer Lisa Weiss used a very traditional approach, she says. "Because it was a brand new space, we had the ability to go in and do what we wanted with it," she says.
The wine racks are organized vertically, with an illuminated central row on which is displayed a bottle from each grouping. French oak barrels standing upright can be used for display or as small tasting tables.
The door to the cellar contains three layers of insulated glass with a decorative etched panel in the middle. The design is of "naughty cherubs" doing acrobatics in a burst of champagne spray after uncorking, Withrow says.
The Withrows do not attempt to regulate the humidity, allowing the presence of three exterior walls to manage it naturally.
Bill Withrow, 58, has one of those jobs he can't talk about for a government agency he will not identify. (You know, or else he'd have to kill you.) He has lived overseas a lot, he says, and this has given him an opportunity to meet a lot of winemakers and collect a great deal of exceptional wine.
He is partial to Bordeaux from small wineries with small production. "The French winemakers are just so passionate about making the wine," he says. "And I adore Tuscans. The Sangiovese grape just has so much in it."
One of the more unusual bottles in the collection is a 1993 Château Mouton Rothschild. Because the label has a drawing of a nude child on it, the shipment was not allowed into the United States. The winery had to create a different label for shipping to the U.S.
The Withrows have a large collection of Champagnes, including many bottles of 1990 Dom Pérignon and several magnums of Taittinger—"Still my favorite Champagne," he says.
And they own some fine ports. "This is my baby," says Bill Withrow, pointing to a dusty bottle on the shelf. "Graham's 30-Year-Old Tawny. I love it."
Withrow jokes about his early exposure to wine in the mid-1970's, when his tipple of choice was Almaden Mountain White in a jug. In the early 80's, he spent several years in France, working for the U.S. government. There, and through his travels throughout Europe, he learned to enjoy fine wine.
Now, after years of sampling different wines, the Withrows' tastes have broadened, Bill Withrow says. "Our palates have also discovered California and New World wines."
The couple tends to drink less expensive wines during the week, but they always head down to the cellar on Friday or Saturday to choose a special dinner wine, Bill Withrow says.
Kristen Withrow acknowledges that wine can be a risky thing to collect. "It's a very fragile collectible," she says. "For whatever reason, it might not live up to expectations."
As they look ahead to Bill Withrow's retirement in a few years, the couple is trying to buy a little less wine and focus on consuming what they already have.
"The joke is that we can't buy any more futures," says Kristen Withrow, "because we won't be alive to drink them."

Did You Know?Posted on Wednesday, Mar. 2, 2011In 2008, Santa Clara University began painting building exteriors with a coating system that reflects heat from the invisible portion of the light spectrum. This highly reflective paint improved building energy efficiency, contributing to the University's 15 percent reduction in energy use between 2005-2009. This practice also gave SCU an Innovation point in the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment, and Rating System (STARS) and helped garner the University a Silver rating.

I had never dealt with them before until I found out about the preorders they were doing for October-November releases. $10 credit off a future purchase, plus 1600 LIVE points, and free shipping. I preordered four, and all of them arrived on launch day, some of them showed tracking as overnight deliveries.
The LIVE points let me reap the rewards of the holiday XBLA sales, and the $10 credits were used up during their amazing Black Friday Weekend sale, when they had deals like XCOM and Dishonored for $25, Forza Horizon for $15, and a slew of older games for $9.99.
I'll be working my way through that backlog for quite some time....maybe until they announce their preorder deal for GTA V this September.

Who else offered a major release day discount on every single game released in the 2nd half of the year and onward+free shipping+no tax (for most people)?
Halo 4 collectors edition $15 off before it came out? ZombiU $12 off? I still have a preorder of Rayman Legends for $29.99 through that sale. That's only a handful, I ordered an insane amount through those sales, and the vast majority of those games have not hit the prices I got them for. Most are still more expensive used.
Major discount+free shipping on every single game to be released, before release day? Yes please.
Newegg all the way.

28 August 2007 - 13:12My Super Sweet 3sixteen
Ahhh, another year.
While I didn't get a pony, or a shiny new all black FJ Cruiser, I did get a couple of great rides in over the weekend.
On Friday, I was able to escape from the shop to get my birthday ride in at Stowe (thank you Mandy). We parked in the Lower Village, and rode out to Sterling Valley via Tony's and Tamarack. Rain the previous night, and high humidity levels ensured the rocks were dangerously slick. It was kinds nice playing in the middle of the day, without having to rush off to pick up children, or race daylight.
We saw plenty of deer.
We rolled on up to Godstreet and Seamus, only to be torn to bits by wild bramble patches on the latter trail. The saying goes, it isn't a real ride unless someone bleeds. We finished our very real ride without further incident.
Sunday was an interesting day. Violent thunderstorms had swept the area on Saturday afternoon, and caused a lot of damage. We went up to East Burke to ride the Kingdom Trails. The weather was supposed to have moved out and replaced with cooler drier air. Well, it was drizzling. So much for that.
We stuck it out and rode anyway. It was kinda fun, a throwback to the days when we used to ride in the rain all the time, before we knew about trail erosion etc. Conditions were actually quite good. I had practically zero brakes, which made for some interesting moments on the trail. I had shortened the lines on the RIP, but had no time to bleed the brakes.
Sidewinder was pretty fun. Having no brakes actually helped.
We got off the trails muddy and wet and tired. It was a lot of fun.

U.S. WNT DEFFEATS ITALY ON DRAMATIC STOPPAGE TIME GOAL, RETURNS HOME FOR SECOND LEG: The U.S. Women's National Team defeated Italy 1-0 in the first match of a two-leg series that will determine the final participant in the 16-team 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup. U.S. forward Alex Morgan, the youngest player on the roster at 21-years-old, entered the match in the 86th minute and tallied about halfway through the fourth minute of stoppage time. The Americans had attacked with vengeance during the final 25 minutes of the game and finally broke through after Carli Lloyd sent a long pass at the Italian restraining line. Abby Wambach jumped to flick the ball on with her head and right into the path of the speedy Morgan. She raced past a defender into the right side of the penalty box, cut toward goal and smacked a sharp shot past Italian goalkeeper Anna Picarelli from six yards out. The USA heads back to Chicago with a leg up on advancing to Germany next summer. A U.S. victory or tie of any sort would earn the Americans that final berth to Germany. A 1-0 victory for Italy would force two 15-minute overtime periods, followed by penalty kicks if necessary, or a any victory for Italy in which it scores two or more goals would send the Italians to Germany without overtime.

U.S. MNT TAKES 1-0 WIN AGAINST SOUTH AFRICA TO CLOSE OUT 2010: Seventeen-year-old forward Juan Agudelo, the first product of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy to make an appearance for the U.S. Men's National Team, became the youngest player to score in the modern era as the U.S. defeated South Africa 1-0 to win the 2010 Nelson Mandela Challenge in Cape Town, South Africa. Youth was the theme of the day as defender Tim Ream earned his first appearance in a U.S. starting lineup that averaged just 10.5 caps per player. After halftime, four of the six substitutions for the U.S. were 20 years old or younger and making their international debut, including Gale Agbossoumonde who became was the second Development Academy product to take the field. Agudelo is the 46th player in U.S. history to record a goal in his first cap, and the first since Stuart Holden struck in his debut against Grenada on July 4, 2009.

U.S. SOCCER COACHESNET ANNOUNCES PLANS FOR BRAZIL AND GERMANY/NETHERLANDS TRIPS IN MARCH 2011: In an effort to continue providing unique coaching opportunities to its membership, U.S. Soccer's CoachesNet announces plans to offer educational trips to Brazil and to Germany and the Netherlands in 2011. Entering its third year, the aim of U.S. Soccer's international coaching education program is to expose U.S. coaches to other federations and clubs to learn the steps they take to develop their coaches and players. Attendees interact directly with top-level coaches, administrators and players from some of the best clubs and countries in the world. Scheduled to take place March 17-25, 2011, coaches will visit five-time FIFA World Cup Champion Brazil, host of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The coaching education workshop in Germany and the Netherlands will take place from April 28 – May 6, 2011 and will mark the 40th anniversary of U.S. Soccer's Coaching Education Program which began under the direction of Dettmar Cramer.
NATIONAL GOALKEEPER COURSE TO BE HELD JAN. 23-30 AT THE HDC: Registration for U.S. Soccer's National Goalkeeping License set for Jan. 23-30, 2011 at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. is now open. The course, intended for both the goalkeeper coach and the team coach, will focus on improving the coaches' ability to train goalkeepers individually, as well as integrate them into team training.

PEAK PERFORMER: The U.S. Women's National Team took a crucial road victory in the first game of the playoff series against Italy for the final place at the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup in Germany. Second-half substitute Alex Morgan, who had come on in the 86th minute, netted the game winner in the waning seconds of stoppage time for the win. It was the 21-year-old Morgan's seventh career cap for the WNT and her third goal.
MARQUEE MATCHUP: There is still work to be done in the U.S. WNT series against Italy as both teams have arrived in Chicago ahead of the second and final game of the home-and-home. The U.S. needs a win or a tie on Saturday, Nov. 27, at Toyota Park in Bridgeview. The game, which kicks off at 1 p.m. CT, will be shown on ESPN3.com, and fans can also follow along live at ussoccer.com's MatchTracker. Tickets for the match are available at ussoccer.com.
SOCCER SHOCKER: The Colorado Rapids, one of Major League Soccer's original franchises, won its first MLS Cup title on Sunday at BMO Field in Toronto. After 90 minutes of hard-fought soccer, the game went into overtime and ended in the most agonizing fashion for Western Conference Champion FC Dallas – an own goal. It was the seventh game in MLS Cup history to be decided in overtime or penalties, and the fourth since 2005.
QUOTABLE: "I've been here before a couple of times. Every time we do it, I gain confidence and the whole team does as well because we believe in what we are doing. It will be good for us to look back at this and see this is the attitude we need to keep and this is the confidence that will give us wins in the future."– U.S. Women's National Team head coach Pia Sundhage on the team's penchant for late-game heroics

A rooster phesant at Gisi Pheasant Farms of rural Ipswich. photo by john davis taken 10/30/2012
No matter what the preseason estimates are, every hunter will have a different opinion on the quality of pheasant hunting in South Dakota, said Chuck Schlueter, head of information and education for the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks.
Whether this year's pheasant outlook was positive depends on a person's perception, he said Tuesday. GFP's 2012 brood survey estimated 3.87 birds per mile in the Aberdeen area — a 51 percent increase from the 2011 estimate of 2.56 per mile, according to GFP's historical outlook.
That sounds like a large increase, but it's still 41 percent lower than the 10-year average of 6.67 pheasants per mile.
"Everyone has different expectations for pheasant hunting," Schlueter said. "I might enjoy an afternoon of going around to different places and tracking the birds, while others might expect to get two or three birds per day."
The harsh winter in 2010 took a heavy toll on the pheasant population in Brown County and across South Dakota, said Aberdeen-area conversation officer Tim McCurdy. He estimated 20 to 25 percent of the pheasant population died during that winter.
The pheasant population in South Dakota in 2010 was 9.84 million; it dropped to 6.6 million in 2011, according to the GFP website.
McCurdy said he believes the pheasant population in Brown County is slowly rebounding, but he won't know for sure until the end of the season, which is when the pheasant population is counted. Pheasant season ends Jan. 6.
Before every hunting season begins in October, a group of biologists travels around to various areas in South Dakota to do a brood survey, Schlueter said. The biologists then compare that number with the survey number from last year and the 10-year average. However, those surveys only give an indication of the pheasant numbers. It's not an official count, Schlueter said.
It can be very difficult to get an accurate read on the pheasant population in certain areas, because each hunter has an individual experience, he said. Some hunters catch their limit every day, while others have difficulty getting one bird per hunt, Schlueter said.
He said the department always receives calls from hunters who are concerned about a lack of pheasant, regardless of the outlook.
"We had record numbers of pheasants, from 2008 to 2010, but we still had hunters that complained about finding pheasants," Schlueter said.
The brood survey indicated 4.21 pheasants per mile in South Dakota, up 18 percent from 3.57 in 2011, but down from the 10-year average of 6.07, the GFP website said.
One possible reason some hunters are having difficulty hunting pheasants is that many pheasants are packed together in areas with dense cover, Schlueter said.
The early harvest resulted in a lot of cleared fields, which is not a good habitat for pheasants to thrive in, he said.
A lot of farmers in the Brown County area have been clearing out cattails and other cover to grow corn, since it is selling for a high price, McCurdy said.
The Game, Fish and Parks survey in the Mobridge area reported 6.71 pheasants per mile, a 17 percent bump from last year's 5.73 and a one percent increase from the 10-year average of 6.62. Pierre was the only other area that exceeded its 10-year-average.
But some hunters in those areas still have had difficulty bagging roosters.
"I've heard hunters saying there's none out there, but I see pheasants on the side of the road all the time," said Campbell County Sheriff's Deputy Chuck Davidson. "The pheasants all figured out if you come to town, nobody bothers you."
Game, Fish and Parks' 2012 Pheasant Brood Survey Results by Area compared to survey results in 2011 and the survey's 10-year-average.
ABERDEEN AREA 2012: 3.87 per mile.
2011: 2.56 per mile.
10-year average: 6.67 per mile.
SOUTH DAKOTA: 2012: 4.21 per mile.
2011: 3.57 per mile.
10-year average: 6.07 per mile.

If you're looking for a good way to wind down the work week, you'll want to pick up Asphalt 8: Airborne on the App Store since it's ditched the $0.99 pricetag and gone free for this weekend only. There are a few freemium elements in the game, but if my glowing review is any indication, they sure don't get in the way of anything. The graphics are fantastic, soundtrack thumping, and with tons of customization and multiplayer options, you'll have a hard time getting anything productive done this weekend.
Asphalt 8 not your cup of tea? Real Racing 3 is the next best racer on the list, especially if you're looking for something less arcadey and more realistic. For something more casual, I've always been a big fan of Forever Drive.
Thank you for the heads-up. Just downloaded.
As an aside, can anybody tell me why game takes way more room on my phone than the App Store says it does? I had to delete other stuff to make room. App Store says it's "884 MB". After installing it, General -> Usage is saying it's taking up 1.4 GB on my phone. That's a pretty big difference!
And I don't think this is the first time I've seen that. I only noticed because I had to delete other games in order to install this one.
Burnout Paradise is the shizznit!
Anyhow... I was contemplating about whether i should buy Asphalt 8 a day ago. Im so glad i waited since its now free!

Guitar Hero Inspired 'Christmas Light Hero' Actually Playable On The Side Of A House
This is a screenshot of some kid playing 'Christmas Light Hero' on the front of his (parents') house. And I thought I was a crazy Christmas decorator (I am, I wander around the front yard in my bathrobe cackling)!
According to the Daily What, Ric Turner, a former Disney 'imagineer' and special effects specialist, turned his yard into a game of Guitar Hero, built out of 21,268 lights and LEDs, that plays Eric Johnson's "Cliffs of Dover."
To program the show a video recording was made of a perfect round of Guitar Hero playing Eric Johnson's Cliffs of Dover. The timing of all the dots and the light show choreography follow that video.When you play, you watch only the Christmas lights, but the audio you hear is from the Wii, so your flubs are broadcast for all to hear (people in cars can tune 99.1 and crank it up as loud as they want.)
Wow, that's....impressive. Not as impressive as wiring up a homemade 'Rock Band, Holiday Edition' using EVERY HOUSE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, but it's not bad for an amateur effort. It is sooooo on, Ric! (I have all the giant inflatables, just sayin').
Hit the jump for the video of the lights in action.

REITs on The Street: REITs That Pay Monthly
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Thanks in large part to the mere threat of rising interest rates, bond yields have clearly bottomed and will soon move closer to normal levels.
What some have referred to as a "taper tantrum" -- a pullback in higher-yielding assets that thrive on record-low rates -- has subsequently led to a more robust environment for collecting dividends.
Real estate investments trusts are one such asset class that has been hit hard, and the selling pressure doesn't match the risks of a rising interest rate environment,- particularly for those REITs with low leverage, termed-out debt structures and visible growth.
As we have seen, REIT exchange-traded funds sold out of the larger, more liquid names across the board with no regard for the strong REIT fundamentals, and hedge funds have since piled on with short positions (i.e. Digital Realty (DTR)).
But hold on a minute. Remember, the attraction for most REIT buyers are dividends, not robust growth in shares. For those of you looking for the same bear market REIT returns we saw in 2010-2012, don't hold your breath. Those days are over, at least for a while. However, income investors should begin to examine REITs for their juicy dividends and, thanks to Mr. Market, we are now seeing some very attractive entry points (with a wider "margin of safety"). For REIT investors, obtaining a dividend is not just icing on the cake since for most REITs, the dividend represents a substantial (average around 60%) ingredient for a REIT's total return. Although share price appreciation is nice, the most important attribute for REIT investors are high and growing dividends. In fact, REIT dividends remain a key differentiator for performance and over the next few years it will be crucial to own stocks (like REITs) that can deliver consistent growth. Simply put, we are now approaching an excellent buying opportunity for REITs and they should be a "core" component for your overall income strategy. The REITs That Pay Monthly Several REITs recently announced a "monthly pay model." I find that especially attractive for income investors. Why? Because by investing in REITs that pay monthly you're able to better match fund your living expenses and create a more disciplined approach to saving and investing. If you're like me, I like receiving monthly rewards as that provides me with the flexibility of paying a household bill, enjoy a round of golf, or simply putting my money back to work -- like owning a free share machine.Select the service that is right for you!

Southern California breaking news and trends
Confess? Lance Armstrong may not have much to gain
Gail Oskin/Getty Images
Lance Armstrong attends the 2011 Pan-Massachusetts Challenge on August 6, 2011 in Bourne, Massachusetts.
Lance Armstrong may be considering a change in course, dropping his years of denials and admitting that he used performance-enhancing drugs — though whether such a move would help him is uncertain.
The New York Times, citing anonymous sources, reported late Friday that Armstrong has told associates he is thinking about the move.
However, Armstrong attorney Tim Herman says that the cyclist hasn't reached out to USADA chief executive Travis Tygart and David Howman, director general of the World Anti-Doping Agency.
A USADA spokeswoman declined comment on Saturday, while Howman was quoted by the Sunday Star-Times in New Zealand, where he is vacationing, saying Armstrong has not approached his group.
USADA stripped Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles last year and issued a report portraying the cyclist as the leader of a sophisticated doping operation on his winning teams.
David Beckham to leave LA Galaxy after MLS cup; Snoop Dogg sniffs at Celtic FC (Updated)
As the L.A. Galaxy heads to the MLS Cup for the second year in a row, Snoop Dogg (aka Snoop Lion) tells a Scottish newspaper that he's interested in Celtic F.C. investment opportunities and would look to sign his pal David Beckham.
First, the final. The Galaxy lost a Sunday night showdown in Seattle but won the aggregate victory over the Sounders in the Western Conference Finals. The L.A. team will defend its title when it faces Houston again.
KPCC's Ashley Bailey spoke with the voice of the L.A. Galaxy — broadcaster Joe Tutino — who said he expects the rematch to be a challenge, and that he wouldn't be surprised if tickets for the Dec. 1 MLS cup are sold out by Thanksgiving.
"I don't think this is going to be easy by any stretch of the imagination. You know, Landon Donovan has been dealing with a hamstring, Edson Buddel's had some knee issues, David [Beckham] has been dealing with some ankle issues so this team is walking wounded right now, so hopefully they'll be all healed and ready to go."
UPDATE: Lance Armstrong stripped of 7 Tour de France titles, banned from cycling for life
Nathalie Magniez/Getty Images
Lance Armstrong arrives at a training session during a rest day of the 2010 Tour de France.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency stripped Lance Armstrong's seven Tour de France titles Friday, erasing one of the most incredible achievements in sports after deciding he had used performance-enhancing drugs to do it.
Armstrong, who retired a year ago, was also hit with a lifetime ban from cycling. An athlete who became a hero to thousands for overcoming cancer and for his foundation's fight against the disease is now officially a drug cheat in the eyes of his nation's doping agency.
In a news release, USADA said Armstrong's decision not to take the charges against him to arbitration triggers the lifetime ineligibility and forfeiture of all results from Aug. 1, 1998, through the present, which would include the Tour de France titles he won from 1999 through 2005.
Armstrong has strongly denied doping and contends USADA was on a "witch hunt" without any physical evidence against him.

Just saw the flowers and small leaves, but no butterfly so far.
Growing on the base of a Douglas Fir
I wish the picture was better, but it was low light and my flash was too bright. This was the smallest one we saw.
Our crew beat down a thicket of Blackberry to reveal a patch of ferns on this moist patch, mixed also with Coyote Brush.
At the same site we saw the California Newts in my last post, one tunnel sheltered this shy creature.
On a work crew, clearing a small hummock of Oxalis, we found a maze of tunnels housing a 'colony' of newts.
Some some abandoned larval exoskeletons too.
Ochrolechia? Lecanora seems reasonable too. Growing on a living maple branch.
A new genus for me (assuming I've got this right). Lots of cool lichens at Pepperwood.
Hanging out around the Bechtel house lights in the morning. Pretty cool-looking little moth.

Review of the 2013 GMC Sierra 1500
2013 Sierra 1500
The 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 half-ton, full-size pickup truck is based on the basic design platform of the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, and is available in Regular Cab, Extended Cab, and Crew Cab versions. Gray Green Metallic exterior color, OnStar 9.0 with a one-year service plan that includes Automatic Crash Response and Turn-by-Turn Navigation and enhancements that reduce wind noise are new for this year.
Exterior Design and Special Features
The 2013 Sierra 1500 comes in five trim levels: Work Truck, SL (Crew Cab only), SLE, XFE and SLT. Most V-8 models are rated to tow around 9,000 pounds, but some models get more than 10,000 pounds with an enhanced trailering package. Rearview camera system and two new exterior colors are available. Air conditioning- single-zone manual front climate control, AM/FM stereo with MP3 compatible CD player, seek-and-scan, digital clock, auto-tone control, Radio Data System (RDS), speed-compensated volume and TheftLock, and XM Radio are standard on most models.
The Sierra 1500's 4.8L, 5.3L and 6.2L V-8 engines offer E85 capability, while the 4.8L and 5.3L engines now feature variable valve timing. The E85 comprises 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, reduces greenhouse gas and smog-forming emissions, and is domestically produced. A six-speed automatic transmission is added to regular and extended cab models with the 5.3L V-8 (previously it was offered only on crew cab models); and all 5.3L-equipped models feature a standard 3.08 axle ratio that enhances fuel economy.
Side curtain air bags and seat-mounted side air bags are now standard on all GMC Sierra 1500 models. Air bags, frontal, driver and right-front passenger with Passenger Sensing System, OnStar 1-year of Safe and Sound plan, Tire Pressure Monitoring System (does not apply to spare tire), Daytime Running Lamps with automatic exterior lamp control, dual halogen composite headlamps with automatic exterior lamp control and flash-to-pass feature, and StabiliTrak stability control system with Proactive Roll Avoidance and traction control are standard.

Apparently ColdFusion Cannot Handle Chunked Multi-Part Form Data
