I've been stuck at a plateau for years, have a few questions:
1. Let us say you did a bench press and did 120 lbs x 3 sets of 6. The next time you lift, must you increase weight or reps to make progress? What if you physically cant?
2. Will muscle growth through high reps EVER lead to increased strength? or can strength gains ONLY be made through low reps?
3. Is it possible to make size gains for a long period of time without ever changing your routine at all?

Wow, not one response... I thought these were good questions, but I guess not... last time I asked this question, you guys just told me to add squats to my routine, which I did.. now I need real answers to push forward and make progress.. even if you just post a link to another thread, that might help.
1. Technically speaking, if you didn't add reps or increase weight, then you'd be really good at doing 120x3x6.
2. I'm not 100% sure on this one, but I've done training to failure and I aimed for 8-10 reps on my top set, and eventually when I tried out sets of 3 I did get stronger.
3. Yes it is. However, you do need to either add more weight progressively, or do more reps.
Hope this helps man.
I have only been training since January so i may not be entirely correct, but i have made good gains so far, so here is my opinion from what i have learn t:
1: The idea is that by stressing the muscles from a workout they will be temporarily damaged but then grow back stronger after a few days (depending on the exercise) and so this will mean you will be slightly stronger than you were before. However this may not mean you will be able to lift much heavier weights the following week because you will only be a little stronger so you continue to lift the same weight until you find that you can do more reps than you normally could and so you increase the weight. Thats what worked for me anyway. I would also personally increase the number of sets you do if you are only doing 3 sets try doing 4.
2: From what i have read training with a high number of reps improves muscle endurance rather than gains mass so if you want to gain mass i would stay within the 6-10 rep range.
3: i am not sure on this, i have not changed my routine for about 3 months now and my gains still seem to be fine...
There could be other reasons for you not making gains such as your exercise technique, diet, sleep etc. but I hope this helps.
for the second question. it makes sense to me ( although i am not sure about this) to work in the mass range for a while to build more muscle mass which also equals potential strength but without doing lower reps hevy weight you arent stimulating the new muscle fibers because they have never fired before so wouldnt it make sense to do a routine with sets of 6-10 reps for mass for a few months and then switch to low reps that way your neurons start firing in the new fibers. put simply ill say maxing muscle fibers then maxing stimulation for strength. i bet you would see immense strength and size gains doing that. but thats just my idea i would like some feedback on this. ive thought about it for a couple of days and im thinking of trying it.
Height:5' 7"
Weight:165 (september 1, 2007)Goal:170
Bench:205 Goal:240
Squat:315 Goal:350
40 Time:4.98 Goal:4.75
(didnt do too good on my goals this round)
why not set a big goal that you cant acheive and get as far as possible than to set a goal you know you can acheive and only get so far
If it is strength you are working for, use a weight that will have you reach failure at 5 or 6 reps. Also make sure to give yourself at least a minute or two of rest between sets so you can give your full effort each set. While training with low reps for strength, I would also keep my sets at 3 to 4 per exercise. Although you are training for strength in the lower rep range, there isnt any reason you wont gain size as well as long as your calorie intake is high enough. I dont know if you have tried any of the WBB routines or BGB, but they are really great programs. I personally gained a little over 40lbs in just under 6 months with BGB. No matter your program, make sure to include all big compound lifts and eat rediculous amounts of food...
I wouldn't do 4 sets. I'd try lowering it to 2 sets first of all. Me and my dad, and my lifting buddy, we've all been doing 2 sets, and it seems to work better. Also, I'd try doing dumbell benchpress for your next 3 or 4 times you do benchpress. Just to switch it around and throw your body off.

Well I do usually 3 sets x 6 of everything, because I thought that 6-8 builds mass and 3-6 builds strength, so I was getting the best of both worlds... turns out I havent made progress in strength or size for several months!
This lack of progress seems to be due to the fact that my routine is always the same...
So really I am looking for a "theory" of bodybuilding that explains how plateaus are broken. The problem with just adding weight is that your body will just do less reps cause the weight is heavier. If you keep the weight the same and try to do more reps, you might find you reach muscle failure at the exact same moment in your routine (this happens to me frequently)...
Thank you for your ideas.. I think my next attempt will be to do high reps 3x8 and then switch to low 3x3.. i dunno, something has to change, I'm tired of putting the same weight on the bench press rack and have all the kids look at me like Im weak..
I'm gonna post my current strength in another thread, to get opinions..
plateaus have always happened to me through years of liftin, I have found I stick to good sets of 8-10 reps and eat like a beast and I always will grow again. Sometimes it takes three months and it sucks. Also I have found as the 8-10 reps adds size the strength corespondes with it. So getting bigger will eventually add strength.
Also would not recomend staying 3x3 long, Maybe throw it in once a month to max or somthin
Let's use a max of 275. Just change the percentages to whatever your max is.
135 x whatever, this is just a warm up
185 x 6 this will be easy, just getting warm
215 x 6 slightly easy, but muscles are getting worked
245 x 6 this is where I get worked. Complete concentration and I wont be able to do a 7th rep. Very hard.
Try something like that. It works very well and I see a lot of the "stronger" guys doing it. (I do this myself btw, just different setxrep schemes)

Lastings Milledge still might be in the White Sox organization by the end of the week, but his DFA is still hard to explain.
Once again, the White Sox have a competitive major-league team and little in the farm system to support it, and that's OK by Kenny Williams.
Ozzie Guillen gets a little more security, and now it's all on him to keep all Guillens out of trouble.
With the White Sox's annual fan convention kicking off Friday, here are some questions fans should ask of Ozzie Guillen and Kenny Williams.
On the second day of Christmas my GM gave to me, two more relievers and one outfielder to bury Teahen on the bench.
Ruben Amaro starting to rival Kenny in terms of big deals. Yes, no, maybe?
From the creator of the excellent Palehose series. Pretty much sums up everything I'm thinking about those two...
Manny Ramirez and Oney Guillen may not be on the team, but they're the main focus of Sox-related news this morning
"I'm just assuming everyone is going to get claimed," Williams said. "That's how I go about it." And having the ultimate confidence in the White Sox actually becomes a bit of a moot point. "Whether I do or don't, it doesn't matter," Williams said. "This is what we got."
Thanks to the Royals, the White Sox now have a 2-game losing streak to bad baseball teams. It's time to get serious about adding some new hitters to the lineup.

Guns, God And A Reggae Beat: A 2013 Poetry Preview
"[S]ometimes forgetting the panorama/ these poems focus like a tunnel,/ To a way of seeing time past,/ a way of seeing the dead," writes Dawes of his own writing, which is often deeply concerned with the long aftermath of the African diaspora. Raised in Jamaica, Dawes takes some of his cues, and this book's title, from reggae music. But his voice in these long and short poems and sequences selected from each of his many books, which began appearing in the mid-1990s, is crystal clear,

Do you realize that the big corporations are running this country? They scored another hit on workers when they downgraded pension funds and health benefits.
The workers didn't get a raise did they? No! But the big companies sure did benefit. No wonder they record profits. The outcome is very unAmerican! Support your unions to get raises and benefits!
No more privations — this helping the rich get taxpayers' money and don't pay fair wages! It costs more!
Hands off Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. We paid into these!
I say no work, no pay! Those Congressmen block all legislation I don't call work!
Make them earn their pay! Cut their entitlements, not ours! That sure would help the big debt. To the new governor: where are the jobs? Or is it like when you were in Congress that you promised jobs but created none?

Two named to all-tournament team
Seniors Predrag Ivanovic and Stefan Durr earned spots on the Stetson Soccer Classic's all-tournament team for their performance in last week's event.
Ivanovic logged a team-high eight combined shots in a two-game performance while Durr netted his second goal of the season to ignite a Dolphins comeback attempt against Temple. JU went 0-2 with a pair of one-goal losses in the tournament to the Owls and Furman.
Durr tied sophomore Nick Rodriguez for the team lead in goals with his scoring strike in the Temple match. Durr's four points trails Rodriguez by one for the team lead. Ivanovic registered four shots in each game.
Furman took home first place in the tournament and Stetson came in second. The Dolphins played Temple on Stetson's campus in DeLand, Fla last Friday before hosting Furman on Sunday.
JU (1-4-1) will look to snap a two-game losing streak on Friday when it hosts George Washington in a non-conference matchup. Kickoff at the Ashley Sports Complex is set for 7 p.m. Fans can also follow the action by accessing the live stats through JUDolphins.com and watch a video stream through ASun.TV.

Dons back to winning ways against Torquay
5:01pm Saturday 21st April 2012 in Sport By Graham Moody, Sports Reporter
AFC Wimbeldon put a dent in Torquay United's automatic promotion hopes with a 2-0 win at Kingsmeadow.
Late goals from substitute Rashid Yussuff – only in the squad because of injury to Jack Turner in the warm up – and George Moncur gave the Dons the first win in five and left Torquay level on points with third-placed Crawley Town.
It was far from a vintage performance by the Dons but they frustrated their promotion-chasing visitors and were good value for their win despite a lack of clear cut chances prior to the goals.
The opening 35 minutes barely saw either keeper make a touch but captain Jamie Stuart denied Torquay with a last ditch tackle and Rene Howe flashed a shot across goal.
The Dons then gifted the Gulls the perfect chance to open the scoring as Stuart left a throughball for Seb Brown and Ian Morris nipped in only to shoot straight at the keeper when he really had to score.
Robert Olejnik denied Christian Jolley when he was through on goal and easily claimed Luke Moore's shot from distance before the break.
The second half continued in the same vein as both sides tried to find a breakthrough but the final ball was too often lacking.
Jolley did force a save from Olejnik, Howe headed over and Sam Hatton had an indirect free-kick in the box blocked before Wimbledon eventually found the net with 10 minutes left.
Hatton got to the by-line and laid the ball back to Yussuff, on for Billy Knott, on the edge of the box and he calmly slid the ball into the bottom corner in the pouring rain.
Moncur then made the game safe five minutes later when Chris Bush surged down the left and the crossed for Luke Moore to set up the West Ham loanee to curl into the corner.
The win took the Dons past their 50 point target with two games left of their debut Football League season.

Fantastically impressive ship inside and out, so clean and tastefully decorated. Lot's of areas to socialise or just be quiet.
We enjoyed spending time in Cafe al Bacio, being looked after by Martha and Barbara. In the evening after dinner we would go to the SunSet Bar and be served by Dev, lovely area to get lost in the views and the fresh air.
Food - Moonlight Sonata (main dining area) Brilliant, tasty, artistic and varied dinners, great characters for the waiters, very attentive but discreet. Watch out for Eric one of the sommeliers lovely and funny.
The only "speciality restaurant" we went to was Tuscan Grill, WOW! the food here is the absolute best, with the added bonus of having the best view on the ship. Great waiter was Mehmet.
Our suite 1237 - deck 10 - Portside was beyond amazing, so much room and comfort. Our Butler Boris was so helpful and knowledgable along with Michelle the Stateroom Assistant made our holiday go without any hitches.
Port stops all very good, unfortunately because of the Portuguese Pilots strike we detoured to Cadiz. Pleasant and very pretty place, a welcome alternative.
All the shore excursions we booked with Celebrity had fantastic guides, funny and knowledgable. Especially a lady who took us on the Beautiful Portofino trip. She was a very mature lady but she obviously spent a lot of time there as a youngster (she knew Rex Harrison!) and knew so much, walking up steep inclines with no bother. When it came to get the coach back, we waited in our respective groups awaiting transport, when the first coach arrived she did no more than go straight up to the driver and commandeered the coach for us - haha! love her.
Embarkation and disembarkation went smoothly and well organised.
All in all an absolutely fantastic holiday, thoroughly recommend this to everyone and we will be back on one soon.

ATLANTA -- Braves right fielder Gary Sheffield, who hit .462 with two home runs and a league-leading 12 RBIs, was named the National League Pepsi Player of the Week for May 12-18.
Sheffield was 12-for-26 last week as the Braves won six of seven games on the road. Sheffield, who had at least one hit in each game, compiled a slugging percentage of .769 and on-base percentage of .515.
Sheffield currently leads the Major Leagues with a .361 batting average and ranks first in the NL in slugging percentage (.653) and second in on-base percentage (.446). His 38 RBIs are third in the NL.
"Shef is just on top of everything right now," Braves manager Bobby Cox said. "He works hard, hits hard and plays hard."
Oddly enough, the Braves weren't sure Sheffield would play last Monday in Los Angeles after he was hit by a 94-mph Jason Schmidt fastball on May 11 against the Giants. But by the time batting practice had ended, the Braves right fielder had done enough to prove to his manager he could play.
"I don't want to sit anywhere, especially the way we're playing," Sheffield said after reporting to Dodger Stadium with some remaining swelling in his left arm.
Sheffield originally thought he had broken his arm and Cox initially shared that belief. X-rays taken during a rain delay against the Giants were negative. But the swelling increased enough during the period of inactivity that he didn't return when play resumed.
"I can get my arm up here now," Sheffield said while raising his hand above his shoulder on Monday. "Yesterday I couldn't do that. Believe me, my arm felt like a ton yesterday. If I continue to do treatment, I'll be just fine."
The Dodgers found out how "fine" Sheffield was when he hit a three-run double in a seven-run, ninth-inning rally on Monday.
"It didn't hurt at all when I was swinging," Sheffield said. "The only problem was if I would have gotten hit with another pitch."
On Tuesday night, before another Dodger Stadium crowd that continued a chorus of boos he's received ever since being traded to the Braves, Sheffield again ignited the Braves. This time his eighth-inning homer helped the Braves to a 3-1 win.
Sheffield's blast came off Paul Quantrill, who hadn't allowed a homer since May 3 last year. But none of the previous homers against the Dodgers created the amount of boos this one did from the many Los Angeles fans, who still obviously hold plenty of animosity toward him.
"I don't think about that stuff," Sheffield said. "I'm coming to play wherever we play.
"They told me early in my career -- guys like Kirby Puckett and Dave Parker -- it depends on how loud the boos are to let you know if you've arrived. Mine were pretty loud."
Sheffield has now won the weekly award nine times, but this is the first time with the Braves. Other Braves nominated were Vinny Castilla (.458, 4 HR, 6 RBIs) and Russ Ortiz (2-0, 1.80 ERA).

8 Tips for Safer City Cycling
July 15, 2013 at 11:23 am , by Allison Pohle
What do I have in common with Leonardo DiCaprio? Sadly, not much. I'm not a famous Hollywood heartthrob and I've never been nominated for an Oscar. But Leo and I share one common interest: bicycling. In fact, we've both participated in New York City's new bike share program by hopping on Citi bikes and pedaling around the Big Apple.
Leo and I aren't the only ones. Since New York's bike share program launched a little more than a month ago, New Yorkers have pedaled more than 1.28 million miles, which is enough to bike to the moon 5.3 times. Similar programs are catching on in other cities, too. Chicago's bike share program launched in June, San Francisco's program will debut in August and Portland will add a program next spring. There are currently more than 12 established bike shares nationwide.
Convenience is the main reason these programs are catching on, says Susi Wunsch, founder of the bicycling website Velojoy.com. The bikes are available year-round at all hours of the day, and customers can pay to rent a bike for a short period of time, or they can buy a weekly or monthly pass.
Although urban cycling is a healthy, eco-friendly and economical alternative to public transportation, there are some risks involved. Most accidents happen when bikers slam into a car door that someone is opening, says orthopedic surgeon James N. Gladstone, M.D., co-chief of sports medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City. (A good reminder to look first before you open one!) Another is when drivers make illegal right turns from the left lane. When these accidents happen, bikers risk road burn, kneecap bruising, fractures of the collarbone and wrists—and sometimes worse injuries.
Before you test your pedaling prowess on busy streets, Susi suggests you practice on roads with less car traffic and always ride at your own pace. Once you do gear up to cycle next to traffic, be sure to follow these tips to stay safe and get the most out of your spin:
1. Ride in a straight line. It's tempting to cheat traffic lights or cut close corners, but Gladstone warns against swerving or zig-zagging through traffic. You never know when someone in a car will suddenly change lanes without signaling or rush through a light. You should also ride in the same direction of traffic, not against it.
2. Use hand signals when changing directions. They might look a little silly, but they're important to ensure that other cyclists and drivers know which way you're turning. Refresh your memory on the standard hand signals here.
3. Avoid the "door zone." Ride at least four feet away from parked vehicles or cabs to avoid car doors that open unexpectedly.
4. Don't ride distracted. "Sure, having your earbuds in makes for a nice ride, but it's not smart in the city streets," Gladstone says. And, of course, don't text and bike.
5. Ring the bell. They aren't just for kids! Use a bell to warn other cyclists, drivers and pedestrians of your approach.
6. Get a helmet that fits. The best helmets sit level on your head about two finger-widths above your eyebrows. And only two fingers should fit beneath the chinstrap. Bike share programs don't provide helmets, so you'll need to bring your own.
7. Look up and look ahead. Don't just look down! Gladstone says a lot of bikers keep their eyes on the road, but instead need to be aware of traffic lights, doors of parked cars and potholes.
8. Stay visible. Wear bright colors, or even a fluorescent neon vest if you feel so inclined. You want to be sure that everyone you share the road with can see you (even if you're not Leonardo DiCaprio).

As John Trudell observed, "They change our name and treat us the same."
Members: 172
Latest Activity: 2 hours ago
This is a partial list of the world's indigenous / aboriginal / native peoples. Indigenous peoples are any ethnic group of peoples who are considered to fall under one of the internationally recognized definitions of Indigenous peoples, such as United Nations, the International Labour Organization and the World Bank, i.e. "those ethnic groups that were indigenous to a territory prior to being incorporated into a national state, and who are politically and culturally separate from the majority ethnic identity of the state that they are a part of".
Note that this is a listing of peoples, groups and communities. Many of the names are externally imposed, and are not those the people identify within their cultures. As John Trudell observed, "They change our name and treat us the same." Basic to the unethical treatment of indigenous peoples is an insistence that the original inhabitants of the land are not permitted to name themselves. Many tribal groups have reasserted their traditional self-identifying names in recent times, in a process of geographical renaming where "The place-name changes herald a new era, in which Aboriginal people have increasing control over the right to name and govern their homelands."
This list is grouped by region, and sub-region. Note that a particular group may warrant listing under more than one region, either because the group is distributed in more than one region (example: Inuit in North America and eastern Russia), or there may be some overlap of the regions themselves (that is, the boundaries of each region are not always clear and some locations may commonly be associated with more than one region).

These ceremonies must be truly awesome to watch. I've never seen one, there aren't any (that I know of) close by, and it's difficult for me to travel very far, but I'm going to see if I can get some videos of them. I know I would enjoy them immensely. Blessed be, dear heart, and thank you for all these wonderful meditations and pictures, they are much appreciated, Love and Light, always, Dot
The secret for us is to learn by observing nature--so very true, dear LCF, thank you for the gentle reminder, Love and Light, always, Dot.
I love the dancers, they are so colorful--such beauty. I also love the picture of the landscape--gorgeous.
House Full of Love yesterday~~today Momma and Grandma is pooped! Got 2 really good rains! TYG! Rainbows of Love
When we sing and touch the Great Spirit's hand, he gives us power. Songs are another way to pray. How lovely, dear LCF, thank you for sharing these beautiful words with us. Blessed be, Love and Light, always, Dot
The little girl singing is so precious, I just want to give her a big hug.
Happy Father's Day everyone! Stay Cool! Rainbows of Love
I love this meditation about how medicine people live the life of humility and service, and must never stop learning. What a beautiful soul this man must have.
The picture is so gorgeous--I've always been fascinated with buffalo--thank you for sharing it--blessed be, dear heart, Love and Light, always, Dot

Another Fiscal Cliff Approaches
by Zzyzzy, Tue Sep 17, 2013 at 09:25:55 PM EDT
Six months have passed since the last post on this blog. Last time we were talking about the fiscal cliff, today another fiscal cliff looms.
Radicals in the GOP are emboldened that they think Obama will blink. They see Obama's pull back in bombing Syria and allowing negotiations over chemical weapons as a sign of weakness. Thus, they are confident that threatening government shutdown and national default will lead Obama to give up on the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
If the GOP miscalulates, economic catastrophe could occur. A default on the national debt would lead to financial panic and economic collapse. But many radical Republicans are alot like the Taliban. They believe that in order to save the village, you must burn the village. Other Republicans are worried that Obama, being the first black president, may go down in history as a great president. They are eager to prevent this by letting America burn.

Has this transfer window been too boring for you? Not much going on? Well, FC Porto understand your pain and are here to help make things a little more interesting - they the defending Primeira League champions are heavily involved with pretty much everything going on right now. Here's what they've done/are supposed to be doing today.
- Signing Argentinian playmaker Lucho Gonzalez from Marseilles. Details are as yet unclear.
- Signing 28-year-old striker Marc Janko - who has scored more than a goal every two games in the Eredivisie - from Twente for a fee believed to be around €5.5M.
- Sold Fernando Belluschi, who's made 63 league appearances with the club to Genoa for an undisclosed sum.
- Appear to be on the verge of selling Colombian midfielder Freddy Guarin to Inter Milan, again for an undisclosed sum.
This is what happens when they lose a game, I guess. With summer signing Kleber failing to pan out so far, Porto have never really replaced Radamel Falcao, who went to Atletico Madrid in summer, so the Janko move should allow them to stop playing around with Hulk as a centre forward and push him back wide right, while Belluschi and Guarin were squad players who are being further displaced by the arrival of Lucho Gonzalez.

The last thing the San Francisco Giants needed was another injury, but another injury was exactly what they got Tuesday night in a game against the Atlanta Braves. In the third inning, starter Jonathan Sanchez fielded consecutive bunts, tweaking his left ankle on the second one. Then, facing Michael Bourn, Sanchez threw a first-pitch ball and limped around, eventually stopping and bending down. The trainer came out of the dugout, and before long, Sanchez was removed from the game and replaced by Guillermo Mota.
Sanchez has a sprained ankle, and what we're waiting on now is word on the severity. It could be minor, but it could be more than that, and with Barry Zito also currently injured, it could hurt if Sanchez needs a stint on the disabled list. The organization isn't exactly overflowing with other fifth starter options.
Sanchez owns a 4.26 ERA on the year, with 66 walks and 102 strikeouts. He has been neither great nor consistent, but few fifth starters are.

Freedom and culture
Samuel Adams, in a letter to James Warren in 1775, wrote:
" No people will tamely surrender their liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and virtue is preserved. On the contrary, when people are universally ignorant, and debauched in their manners, they will sink under their own weight without the aid of foreign invaders."
May our government schools begin, today, to teach the wisdom of our founders. who were divinely inspired. Our Constitution is relevant now because God's rules are never out of style, regardless of our personal view.
The National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers should wake up to the fact that they are outside the perfect will of God. The USA is in trouble because we are the universally ignorant nation that is sinking under its own weight.

Most campus buildings and facilities are accessible to the campus community, guests and visitors during normal business hours, Monday through Friday. The exterior doors to all student residence halls are controlled 24 hours a day and are accessible to students via an electronic card access control system. Guests and visitors to a student residence hall may gain admittance by calling a student living in the residence hall and being escorted by that individual.
The exterior doors of residence halls are secured by an electronic card system. Students gain access into the residence hall by using their student identification cards. This enables entry control by validation or denial of the cardholder. The doors are monitored by a computer at the UMaine Police Department. Sensors attached to the doors are capable of signaling an alarm to police if doors are propped open. The police will respond and correct the situation.
In addition all residence hall exterior doors are monitored by video surveillance cameras, with all activity at these doors recorded and stored. The cameras interact with the access system to transmit alarms to UMaine PD whenever a door is left open.

In an informal meeting of the Vermont House of Representatives, Speaker Shap Smith welcomed environmental activist Bill McKibben to speak on the issue of climate change.
Those with opposing views did not receive the same opportunity.
McKibben spoke of shrinking ice sheets and global temperature rise before turning his attention to the Green Mountains.
"Let's think about Vermont for a minute," he said.
McKibben asked legislators to support proposed thermal efficiency legislation. He says he appreciates the concerns of those proposing a wind moratorium, but says temperature rise poses more of a threat to majestic ridgelines. He concedes the Vermont efforts will not reverse warming.
"You can't control everywhere else, but you can try to provide some leadership," he said.
Earlier in the day, business leaders and state staff testified before multiple House committees to explain how they're affected by and adapting to climate change.
"It has caused us to spend money; it has caused us to save money and it offers us opportunity to make money," said Joe Fusco, vice president of Casella Waste Management.
Spokespeople for Casella say they treat climate change as a resource sustainability issue. The company has lowered emissions, in large part by capturing landfill gases, cutting the equivalent output of 182,000 cars.
Others spoke of climate's effects on tourist industries like the skiing
Farmers from both sides of the aisle said they've already adapted harvest cycles.
"Ideologically it's not a bad idea, but in reality, people in the state are suffering. They're having trouble paying their bills," said Rep. Ron Hubert, R-Milton.
Hubert says climate change should be dealt with at the federal rather than state level. He says Vermonters will absorb the cost of change without benefit if the rest of the world sits idle.
McKibben says humans have caused global temperature to rise about 1 degree Celsius. He says enough carbon has been pumped into the atmosphere to raise it an additional degree, and says a 4 degree rise would lead to mass extinctions.

After six months of construction, traffic is about to flow through a new intersection near I-75 in Valdosta.
It will help ease congestion on St. Augustine Road. The city just completed a $1.3 million intersection called the Twin Street Improvement Project.
The city engineer says it was dangerous for drivers getting in and out of the Starbucks and other restaurants on St. Augustine Road. The traffic signal will begin directing traffic tomorrow.
"The signal here was needed pretty badly, again to allow not only the residents here along Twin Street and those motorists to access St. Augustine, but also the businesses," said Jim Martinez, Project Manager.
The traffic signal will go live around 9 a.m. tomorrow.

Western History & Genealogy Blog
Colorado Narrow-Gauge Railroads
John Henry Bowman moved to Georgetown, Colorado in 1885. He bought stock in the American Sisters Mine, a silver mine in Clear Creek County, Colorado. Bowman's daughter, "Mellie," married John James ("J.J.") White, who bought the rest of the mine and also practiced law. Today, the Bowman/White House in Georgetown is a historical site.
WH32, available in the Western History Department, is a collection of the papers of these families that reflects their lives in Colorado. Included in the collection is a box of nitrate negatives. Dennis Hagen, is an expert and an enthusiast in narrow-gauge railroads. He was very interested in the following images as was Charles Albi, a railroad author and expert who volunteers at the library. The first image shows Engine Number 4 – a Shay-type Locomotive. Although similar to locomotives used on the Argentine Central near Silver Plume, Colorado, Charles Albi discovered that this engine was actually used byCalifornia's Mt. Tamalpais & Muir Woods Railroad. The next two images are of Engine 69 of the Colorado and Southern Railroad probably near Elk Creek, Colorado. Engine 69 pulled the scrap train that dismantled the Georgetown Loop in 1939, and it was the last engine to run at Black Hawk in Colorado. Two cabooses are clearly visible in the photograph of the train crossing a bridge. This photograph was taken near Elk Creek in Clear Creek Canyon. The last image portrays Engine 60, but look at Engine 69 on the other end of the train. It turns out that engine 69 is pulling a dead engine 60 and coach to a final resting place on display in Idaho Springs, Colorado. This photograph was probably taken around 1941. The date of the images is not known. The Colorado and Southern Railroad bought the Georgetown Loop in 1898 and continued operating along Clear Creek until the early 1940s, so it is likely that the photographs date from in between those two dates. If anyone can tell us more details about the photographs, it would be greatly appreciated.
Shay #4
I became quite excited by the description of Shay #4, hoping that it had somehow ended up in Colorado... Alas, it would appear most likely that this picture was indeed taken on Mount Tamalpais (which is just north of San Francisco); #4 was scrapped in 1931 after the railway closed. I am glad see this picture. Thanks for sharing!
--"The first image shows Engine Number 4 – a Shay-type Locomotive. Although similar to locomotives used on the Argentine Central near Silver Plume, Colorado, Charles Albi discovered that this engine was actually used by California's Mt. Tamalpais & Muir Woods Railroad."
Seniority rosters
I'am looking for a seniority list for brakeman and conductors on the clear creek div. 1890s thru 1910. If someone can help Thank you very much.
C&S No. 60
I agree with Shane's comments. The presence of the coach in the consist is another clue. In the final years a coach was not a usual part of this "mixed train." Any passengers, most likely railfans by that time, rode in the caboose or, if they wished, in an open freight car. This was told to me years ago by the late Richard Kindig.
Charles Albi Colorado Railroad Museum
Probable dates & location
Very neat collection of photographs! All of the pictures which are of the Colorado & Southern locomotives and trains appear to have been taken at a location on the railroad known as "Forks Creek", where the railroad, and the north and south forks of Clear Creek, diverged. One track of the railroad went north to Central City and Black Hawk, the other, more southerly route went west to Idaho Springs, Georgetown, and Silver Plume. The railroad had a water tank and buildings at this location, which is why this seems to be the most probable location. The photograph showing locomotive #60 in the foreground may very well be the #60's last trip up the canyon. Notice that there is another locomotive in the background, and it has visible smoke coming from its stack. #60 does not, and appears to be being pulled "dead" (not steamed up). The #60 is also very clean and shiny with new paint, which makes me think this may have been the train that took #60 up to Idaho Springs, where it was left on permanent display by the Colorado & Southern Railway in 1941, and it still is there today. If there is any concern of my accuracy with these photos, please contact me via email.
Shane Schabow Brakeman, Georgetown Loop Railroad
Everything you said is right but the location. This is not Forks Creek. This is Elk creek which was the water stop before Forks Creek. I can tell this because of three things, Forks Creek the water tower was on the other side of the tracks, the pump house is also on the wrong side, and at Forks Creek the tracks split before the bridge while Elk Creek was singal track.

Plans approved for 'ecology themed' community hub
25 July 2012
The London Legacy Development Corporation will create a community hub in the north of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park after plans were approved yesterday.
Set within the lush parklands of the North Park, the community building and play space will become a centre for visitors and themed on the local ecology.
It will boast some of the most imaginative play facilities in the UK as children will be able to build dens, grow plants and investigate insects, or climb trees and play on a series of platform walkways, slides and bridges connected to trees. There will also be sand and water play activities where budding engineers can create dams and locks to mimic the changes made to the River Lea after the Games.
They will be centred around a hub building with a café, reception area, offices, toilets and a flexible space that can be used by schools and community groups. It will be timber clad to fit in with the natural environment with solar panels added to its roof for green energy.
The plans, which were approved last night by the Olympic Delivery Authority's Planning Committee , have been designed by erect architecture which won a competition to design the scheme. The London Marathon Charitable Trust will be contributing to the cost of the play area.
The North Park will open in phases in 2013 with the South Park opening in spring 2014.
Andrew Altman, Chief Executive of the London Legacy Development Corporation, said:
"The North Park will be the first area of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to open from July 2013. It will be one of the most beautiful green spaces in London with wetlands, clean waterways and beautiful parklands for everyone to enjoy.
"This hub will be at the heart of community life. We have designed an area that not only serves visitors, but encourages them to learn about the natural environment around them.
"The decision to approve our plans means we can start work on the community building and play space after the Games finish. It is another example of how London is further ahead in planning legacy than any previous Olympic Host City."
John Bryant, Chairman of the London Marathon Charitable Trust, said:
"The Trust is delighted to be a major legacy funder of the North Hub Play Area. We are pleased that our £1 million grant for the extended play area will allow children of all ages to stretch their minds and bodies, using nature as a playground and taking on physical challenges that will build confidence and fitness.
"We are happy, too, to confirm our continued commitment to the provision of legacy facilities at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park where, in addition to the North Hub Park, the London Marathon Trust will be funding work at the VeloPark, the Aquatics Centre and the Community Athletics Track, all of which will help to achieve so much for the true legacy of the London 2012 Olympics - one which has been shared by the Trust for over 30 years – to ensure a lasting benefit for the whole community"
Barbara Kaucky, Director at Erect Architecture said:
"We are excited to be working with the London Legacy Development Corporation as we share a vision of creating a hub building and play park. We are confident that the facilities will become a go-to location for both locals and visitors from further afield.
"As local architects, the extraordinary Olympic project has been growing on our doorstep. It is a great feeling to be able to play a role in ensuring that the Games leave behind a sustainable legacy."
The community hub will cover 1.75 hectares in total, with the building 550 sq m in area. Its café will seat 72 people inside and a further 120 outside. The 140 sq m of flexible space can be split into two separate rooms for community use or lessons.
The outside space will include a community events lawn for picnics, outdoor teaching sessions or small scale events which will be enclosed by a multi-stemmed hazel copse.
A Succession Garden will show the story of plant life-cycle with flowers and shrubs increasing in size with children able to experience the different colours, smells, sounds, scale and varying forms. An artist is currently being commissioned by the Legacy Corporation to create a series of play activities for children in the garden.
There will also be a Scots Pine Play Area where the woodland will provide an ecosystem in its own right with their highly textured and jigsaw-like layered bark providing niches for mosses and a host of insects which will in turn attract birds. The area will also include natural boulders, timber structures and rocks for exploratory play and climbing.
Park reopening
After the Games, the London Legacy Development Corporation will undertake one of Europe's largest construction projects in creating the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Through careful planning, the North Park will begin to reopen from 27 July 2013 – exactly one year after the Olympics Opening Ceremony. In addition to the community hub the North Park will includes acres of vibrant green parklands and footpaths, perfect for picnics, walks and play.
Also here, the Multi-Use Arena, a 7,500 capacity indoor entertainment venue will host a range of community events, along with a yearly programme of high profile sports and concerts. The Legacy Corporation will celebrate the opening of the North Park with an event for local residents and visitors.
Visitors will be able to access the Park through entrances in Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest, in addition to pedestrian access through Eton Manor. The remainder of the North Park will open at the end of 2013, and will include the Lee Valley VeloPark and more access points for visitors.
