Space and vacuum Question
Beyond the gravitational forces or influences of any Star or Planet what keeps a spaceship floating stationary in the vacuum of space?
Now that may sound like a dumb question. But I was having a discussion with my daughter the other day about this and had to wonder myself.
The first thing you learn when you read Einstein's Universe is to throw away the concept of stationary. Everything is moving. The only question is...relative to what? It's all a matter of perspective.
Spaceships are normally orbiting around something. Whether that something is the Earth, the moon, the sun or the Galaxy. Which one is up to you.
In orbit the shuttle would seem to be motionless next to the space station but look down and earth is spinning and compared to the Earth the shuttle and station are moving at 17000 mph.
If we broke Earth's orbit and just went out into interplanetary space...now the sun looks stationary but the Earth is moving away...or is it we're moving away? It depends on your perspective. On Earth it looks like the ship is moving away where as on the ship the sun stands still and the Earth is moving away.
That's General Relativity.
Bear with me…
Okay, lets suspend the concept of General Relativity for moment. If the universe was totally empty and suddenly a 1 metre cube of solid steel mysteriously appeared from nothing at the very centre of the universe, it would neither be floating nor moving, just existing in a vast vacuum, right? Suspended there by nothing, right?
An object at rest, stays at rest. An object just sitting in space, as long as it is not being acted upon by some external force, would just sit there.
To quote Scotty from Star Trek 2009 : "It never occurred to me to think of space as the thing that was moving."
The answer would then be inertia.
You have too elements in this experiment. A universe (which we presume is expanding because their is a passage of time. The other element is the Steel Cube.
We don't understand exactly why (that's what the Higgs Boson & Field is all about) But matter resist the expansion of the universe. The universe is pulling on the Steel Cube but the cube refuses to move as fast as the universe. Plus since there is nothing else it means the universe is pulling on the could equally (more or less) from all sides. If the Cube were energy it would move right along with the expansion of the universe like an explosion.
But matter is different.
Not only does matter cause itself to move slower it also makes the universe immediately around the Cube move slower which makes time move slower.
About expansion of the universe, redshift in an observed distant object means it's moving away. Okay. Part of the redshift, however, caused by atomic hydrogen in space, about one atom per cubic centimeter. Astrophysicists take that into account when making their calculations. Otherwise, they would get an exaggerate figure for how fast something is moving away from us. But what about H2? Atomic hydrogen (H1) is easy to detect with radio astronomy, but molecular hydrogen is silent and normally cannot be detected in space. And for some reason the possible existence of H2 is space is ignored. It means that people say the universe is expanding but really don't know if they don't know how much hydrogen in its most stable state is out there. Well, H2 can be observed in places where it's hot and has been with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). And the authors of the original article (E. A. Valentijn and P. P. van der Werf, 1999) pointed out that if there is H2 in space scientists have no business claiming an expanding universe, Big Bang, etc. Granted, the amount of H2 hasn't been determined. So there's no figure to replace zero molecules per cubic parsec. It's probably five to 10 molecules per cubic centimeter, but fewer than five, if confirmed, would be sufficient to prove a lot of what it taken for granted today to be absolute nonsense. At least in the face of the evidence they could say, "I don't know." Instead, they're also going so far to say that galaxies beyond the Hubble horizon are moving away from us faster than the speed of light.
This article explains it quite clearly. You can see the author's credentials at the bottom of the page, which is old. He has passed away since this was posted. But there are more recent papers on this to be found on the Web.
Astronomers with truckloads of credentials might like to sling mud at anyone holding this point of view, but still, how can anyone claim there's no H2 is space, while admitting to one atom per cubic centimeter of H1, not to mention that fact that hydrogen atoms tend to pair off and mate for life? Maybe they're right, but the most respected scientists used claim quite loudly, "Rocks can't fall from the sky!"
Someone here also brought H2 as an explanation for Dark matter aswell.
I think I've read your article LCARS24.

I know it's a ways a way, but my guess is Andrew Friedman and company are going to be very cautious come the trade deadline. Most of the reason being is not because we want to be, but because were broke. So for shits and giggles I compiled a small list of a couple of guys we could attempt to trade for if DRO did get a wild hair up their ass and get rid of the payroll we currently have and reinvest.
Guys on our team I wouldn't mind trading:
Dan Wheeler RP $3.2 million salary Gabe Kapler OF $1 million
Andy Sonnanstine SP $320 K Gabe Gross OF $1.25 million
Chad Bradford RHP $3.67 million Shawn Riggans $414 K
Guys I wouldn't mind trading for:
Damn, I can take 1 guy off the list, Ramon Castro is no All Star, but he is a serviceable backup. He was just traded to the White Sox.
Dan Uggla 2b Florida - 5.3 million - He's played like shit this year, but I believe a change of scenery would bode him well.
Freddy Sanchez Pittsburgh 2b - 6.25 million
Fill in the blank for your choice of relief pitchers, I'll even keep Bradford if he continues rehab and does well, I just figured he makes too much loot.
A couple relievers who may be available because there team won't be in contention - LaTroy Hawkins Houston, Ron Villone Wash., Chris Sampson Houston, Houston Street Colorado, Brad Ziegler Oakland, Michael Wuertz Oakland, Andrew Bailey Oakland.
Not all these guys are household names but are having fine years thus far. I know alot can change between now and the deadline, I just figured I'd get your guy's take.

Dear Drunk Guy from the bar last night,
When you stumbled over to my bar stool to chat me up late in the evening, using your best slurred incoherent gibberish, and I told you I just wanted to watch the band and proceeded to ignore you, that was me politely telling you to go away. It was not a challenge for you to reappear minutes later requesting a dance partner, refusing to take no for an answer when I again told you that I wasn't interested. It was also not an invitation for you to kneel down on the floor at my feet begging while clasping your hands in prayer, batting your eyes and giving me a sad puppy dog face before yanking me out of my seat with your grabby clammy hands, spilling my drink all over me as you twirled me onto the dance floor. Was I unclear? What part of, "Sorry, I'm not interested," and "No, I don't want to dance with you," did you not understand? No means no, buddy. Had you not been completely slizzard, I would have played along and been agreeable to your advances. I would have granted you that dance simply because you'd asked. But if you need so much liquid courage to approach women in bars that you drink until you can't even string a sentence together, I'm not interested. Just something you might want to think about while you nurse that wicked hangover.

text: Modern Machine Shop: WorkholdingWorkholding refers to any device that is used to a secure a workpiece and hold it in place against the forces of machining. The most basic workholding device is a simple clamp that is screwed into place on a machining center's table, but workholding can also involve complex fixtures that are custom-built for particular parts. Other common workholding devices include vises and chucks, as well as indexers or rotary tables that are able to change the part's position while it is held, so the machine can reach various features of the part without the setup having to be changed. In most machining applications, workholding also locates the part. In turning, for example, a chuck not only holds the part securely but also holds it precisely on the centerline of the spindle. On a machining center, the vise or fixture that holds the part may also hold it in the precise position and orientation where the machining program expects to find it. For this reason, components such as locating pins and workstops that make it easy to place piece after piece in the same location are also common workholding components.uuid:a5c09386-252c-43d6-93ce-180b1926c3f2;id=1856Copyright © Gardner Business Media, Inc. 20142014-08-31T08:14:44Zhttp://www.mmsonline.com/blog/post/collet-chuck-essentialsCollet Chuck Essentials"Understanding CNC Collet Chucks" has been one of the most read articles in our archives during the past several years and continues to get substantial traffic today.2014-08-06T00:00:00-04:002014-08-31T08:14:44Zhttp://www.mmsonline.com/articles/precision-workholding-offers-multiple-advantagesPrecision Workholding Offers Multiple AdvantagesAs American manufacturing continues to transition from the mass production of conventional parts to the manufacture of complex, high-value components in relatively small lot sizes, precision workholding has assumed increased importance2014-07-16T13:04:41-04:002014-08-31T08:14:44Zhttp://www.mmsonline.com/blog/post/clamping-options-for-five-axis-machiningClamping Options for Five-Axis MachiningIn five-axis machining, the workholding has to get out of the way.

Natural Factors Bromelain and Turmeric capsules
help inflammatory conditions and enhance digestion naturally while
supporting and protecting the liver. This product helps to enhance
health in two ways:
1)taken between meals it helps to break down soft plaque in the blood
vessels, thins the blood, helps with menstrual problems and works as an
antiinflammatory for painful joints.
2) taken with meals it is an excellent digestive aid that helps with
bloating, gas and minimizes the feeling of fullness.
Turmeric stimulates digestion, supports the liver, and reduces
intestinal permeability. Turmeric's active ingredient is curcumin which
helps to check inflammation by inhibiting leukotrienes and thromboxanes.
Curcumin is also an antioxidant that helps to stabilize membranes that
are damaged by inflammation.
Bromelain, an enzyme isolated from the stem of the pineapple plant, aids
in digestion by breaking down protein, and improves the absorption of
turmeric. Bromelain also helps with blood vessel and joint inflammation.
Bromelain blocks the body's production of kinins, reducing swelling and
promoting healing. Bromelain's most common application is in the
treatment of inflammation and soft tissue injuries. It has been shown to
speed healing from bruises and hematomas. Treatment with bromelain
following blunt injuries to the musculoskeletal system results in a
clean reduction in swelling, pain at rest and during movement, and
tenderness. Administration of bromelain presurgically can reduce the
average number of days for complete disappearance of pain and

Many of the 20-somethings may not be up on their golf history, and at least one scribe may wish to rephrase the question, but 2011 Kraft Nabisco champion Stacy Lewis knows full well why seven-time major titleholder Karrie Webb's name on the leaderboard still means something.
"I think a lot of younger players don't quite know all the history of the game and really what she's done," Lewis told reporters Saturday after carding a 2-under 70 to pull within two shots of 54-hole Wegmans LPGA Championship leader Eun-Hee Ji's pace-setting 4-under.
"I know more of the history of the game, so I have a lot of respect for her," said Lewis, who has come to appreciate the 37-year-old Webb as a mentor. "But I just think that a lot of the younger players maybe don't quite know what all she's done."
With all the hoopla surrounding the kids -- including 17-year-old Lexi Thompson coming out for her first full-time season on tour; Tiger Woods' niece, Cheyenne, turning pro last month; and young veterans like Lewis and Yani Tseng continuing to stand out -- Webb has taken a back seat to the young guns. Webb, herself, conceded that her name being listed among the frontrunners may not inspire the same respect it once did.
But, as the LPGA pointed out, the experienced Aussie who entered Sunday's final round just one shot back of Ji after posting a 68 on Saturday, won her 37th and 38th career victories last season and is second only to Annika Sorenstam on the career money list. She has also been in the top 25 in each tour start this season.
So, you'll excuse Webb if she took exception to a question from a reporter, who wondered what motivated a veteran of such advanced years to compete with the youngsters.
"Well, when Phil Mickelson was 37 do you think people were asking him that?" Webb responded. "So Tiger Woods is 36 and no one is asking him that?
"I still have the same drive as those two guys," said a golfer who should not have to defend her competitiveness to anyone, no matter what her age. "I don't put the hours in just to be out here to make up the numbers. I want to have a chance to win and it feels great that I played well enough today that I have a shot tomorrow. I would love to hold the trophy up tomorrow. That's my goal every week. If I play well tomorrow I have a good chance."
Webb was at a loss as to why she was fair game for the type of disrespectful queries no one would ever consider asking Mickelson, Woods, and other ancients on the PGA Tour.
"I don't know. I actually don't know why that is," she said. "Maybe you can tell me why ... that is. I'm not sure. I've been a veteran since I was about 28. I don't know what you call me at 37."
How about, Champ?
The key to Webb's longevity, by the way? Keen focus on her fitness regimen.
"I think the fact that I spend 20 minutes every morning stretching, and then again in the evening now, I probably didn't do that when I was 25 -- stretching in the evening," Webb said. "But now I need to do that as well. That's definitely helped. I do my fitness work. I've been doing Pilates the last couple of years. That's really helped the weaknesses in my body that I had, to make some of the swing changes that I needed to make."
Webb will go for her eighth major championship and 39th tour win when she tees off in the final pairing with Ji at 2:40 p.m. ET at Locust Hill Country Club in Pittsford, N.Y.

When Mark Healey isn't throwing himself over the ledge on some looney wave he enjoys diving into the deep blue yonder and stalking fish. And like his waves Healey doesn't go for the guppies. With that said, Healey was recently spearfishing in Fiji where he plugged a massive Dogfish Tuna. I wonder what took more effort diving down and reeling this beast in or trying to eat it all? Either way I'm sure Healey slayed the challenge.

Cameron seeks to reassure Tory activists with speech
David Cameron will attempt to reassure party activists at the Conservative's spring conference by promising to foster "aspiration" and give school sport a £150 million cash boost.
The Prime Minister's speech follows a turbulent few weeks since the devastating Eastleigh by-election, in which the Tories were beaten into third place by UKIP.
Mr Cameron will tell activists his approach chimes with the Conservative values of figures such as Margaret Thatcher and Winston Churchill.
"The global race is not just about GDP," he is set to say. "It's about saying to the mum who's worried about her children's future, we are building a country where there is a future, so your kids won't have to get on a plane to get on in life, they can make it right here in Britain".
"It's what this party's always been about - aspiration", Cameron will add.

Buying Arm would force Apple out of most of the markets that use Arm processors. Otherwise they would catch just about every kind of hell from regulatory bodies and get very poor return on their investment with everyone jumping to a competing platform like MIPS.
So basically all hell would break loose if Apple does acquired ARM and takes advantage of it's resources to improve only apple products, causing other device manufacturers to rely on other providers...ah limiting us the consumer from getting our goodies. Be smart Apple and just sit back and share with everybody else.
Well if I were Apple, I'd definitely take advantage and take a hold of ARM. Getting rid of the competition and making "my" company a monopoly..
That is just it though, it is not Apples choice. Before one company can buy/merge with another company they need permission from the government. I really don't see this happening.
Apple's software is remarkably portable. Buying a CPU company doesn't make sense...
That would be good if they did. Then they would have a power to bring some manufacturing jobs here to the states. Then maybe he could give back a little that he has taken for so long! Of course Jobs doesn't care about the economy, just what gets him more turtlenecks.
I am sure when this was brought up. Obi Wan said to him,(hand wave)..... This is not the Acorn you are looking for!
>> Then they would have a power to bring some manufacturing jobs here to the states.
ARM only designs and licenses CPUs, they don't manufacture them.
I'm kind of glad Apple's not buying them, because I see them as future competition for the x86 architecture in the desktop space (and think Apple might change that direction). I believe the result will be less reliance on a CPU-level API and more competition/innovation once that lock is broken.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Despite above normal rainfall for the year across most of the Texas Panhandle, Lake Meredith, a major supplier of drinking water to the High Plains, continues to fall and it at a current depth of 42.92 feet.
This level is a record low lake level and a new record is being set every day. According to the Canadian River Municipal Water Authority, at 42 feet portable pumps must be brought in to help with pumping.
There are no watering restrictions in the Texas Panhandle at this time, but water conservation is being encouraged, especially in Amarillo where the "Every Drop Counts, A Guide to Water Conservation" campaign is going on.
However, to minimize water lost to evaporation during warmer and windier times of the day, water restrictions in Lubbock are in effect.
The City continues to allow watering between the hours of 6 p.m. and 10 a.m. Water use between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. is restricted in order to minimize evaporation.
The restrictions are part of the City's irrigation ordinance, which applies from April 1st to September 30th each year. Exceptions are allowed for newly planted grass or landscaping, soaker hoses, and watering by hand.
The City continues to allow watering two days per week with up to one and a half inches of water for each area of the yard. Citizens can help stop the waste of water by eliminating significant runoff while watering lawns and gardens.
To report violations, please call the Water Hotline at (806) 775-3952.

Mike Mullins, coach of the AAU's Illinois Wolves, isn't pulling any punches when he describes Malek Harris' abilities.
''We're using Malek to play everywhere on the floor, and the last guy we had that did that was Evan Turner,'' Mullins said.
Harris, a 6-7 junior from Sandburg, has seen his recruiting explode this spring. He isn't ranked in the national top 100 by any of the major recruiting services, but Mullins expects him to catapult into the top 50 when the next rankings are released in June.
''He has made some great improvements in his perimeter skills, his ballhandling and his passing,'' Mullins said. ''That has been a big revelation for the schools recruiting him.''
Iowa was an early player for Harris, and he visited DePaul, Louisville and Indiana last fall. He has offers from Creighton, DePaul, Illinois State, Iowa, Kansas State, Marquette, Oregon State and St. Louis. Butler, Miami, Illinois, Purdue, Missouri, Oklahoma and Virginia Tech are showing interest.
Harris is widely praised for his motor, is always playing hard and has a nose for the ball. If he can fully develop into a shooting guard, expect more high-major national programs to come calling.
St. Viator junior Ore Arogundade is another star on the Wolves' 17U team. He had a tremendous high school season, highlighted by a 45-point game against Mundelein in February.
Mullins had cut Arogundade from the Wolves heading into freshman year.
''He really took that to heart and has gotten better every year,'' Mullins said. ''A lot of kids run from adversity. He came back and succeeded.''
Arogundade has a lively presence on social media and is one of the more interesting personalities in the 2014 class.
''He's a very social kid, and he's completely unspoiled, which is a nice character trait to have in high school or travel basketball,'' Mullins said. ''He is very appreciative of everything he gets and has worked really hard.''
Floor general
St. Joseph sophomore point guard Glynn Watson, Demetri McCamey's younger brother, was moved up to the Wolves' 17U team for this weekend's tournament in Dallas. Watson was one of the star attractions on the 16U team this spring.
''He's the best point guard we've had in a long, long time,'' Mullins said. ''And every point guard we have had has started in college as a freshman — that is, in the history of the Wolves.''
The entire Big Ten is recruiting Watson, who was 5-8 last year and has grown to 5-11. Purdue offered a scholarship last year and has been on him the hardest.
''He's as good as any point guard that we've played against this year or seen play at any age group,'' Mullins said. ''Being Demetri's little brother, I'm sure he will get bigger and stronger. That's what everyone is waiting to see.''
Future stars
The Wolves program has two freshmen worth keeping an eye on: Hinsdale South's 6-9 Barrett Benson and De La Salle's 6-5 Skyler Nash. Indiana, Ohio State and Michigan have expressed some interest in both players.
Nash has been moved up to the Wolves' 16U team. Benson is also expected to play up this summer, but he's currently recovering from a sprained ankle.
Summer in Europe
Young junior Jahlil Okafor, the Sun-Times Player of the Year, will compete in the 2013 U19 World Championships in Prague, Czech Republic, this summer. Training camp begins in late June, with the first game on June 27 against Ivory Coast.

Variable Capacitor – Electronic Or Mechanical Storehouse Of Energy
A variable capacitor is a condenser, which is useful in storing energy by creating electric fields. The specialty of this device is that the ability to retain power can be changed either repeatedly and intentionally through electronic or mechanical ways.
The capacitance of the variable capacitor may be changed throughout the lifespan of the device itself. A mechanical construction is used in the capacitors, which allows changing the distance between the various sets of plates, or precisely, the area of the overlapping plate surface, including the variable capacitance diodes. All these change their nature of capacitance due to the application of reverse voltage bias.
Uses and Applications of a Variable Capacitor
Capacitors usually deal with almost every person on this earth. The most common device that we use in our daily lives, the radio, depends on the variable capacitor values for receiving the various channels over the air. The capacitor helps in adjusting the radio to accept the variety of frequencies over which the different channels are broadcasted. Tuner of the radio is a very common example of a variable capacitor.
In fact, without this wonder device, the transmission of television would have been practically impossible. The capacitance of the semiconductors, which is controlled through bias voltage, determines the function of the supersensitive transformers. This in turn helps in the radical change of direct voltage into an alternating voltage pattern.
The main advantage of this device is that while it helps in storing electrical or mechanical charges, it can simply be adjusted according to needs for storing a variable amount of electricity. These capacitors are commonly found in radio sets, as channel tuners. These devices can be used to change the storage quantity of electrical or mechanical charge. A typical variable capacitor has a comparatively lower capacity of storing the charge.
The method of variable capacitance is even applied in pressure sensors and even the microphones.
Types of Variable Capacitors
Several types of variable capacitor are available. They are as follows:
- The air variable capacitor is a device possessing a rotating and a fixed set of metallic plates that is positioned in a meshed-fashion. They are separated by air. The energy-retaining power is controlled through rotation of a set of plates that vary in overlapping with the fixed set of plates.
- The vacuum variable capacitor usually consists of cylinders that are mounted inside an evacuated glass enclosure in order to obtain a high rating of breakdown voltage. While adding to higher voltage capacitance, this device reduces the chances of arching in between the different plates.
- A variable tuning capacitor is usually used in the process of varying the frequency of resonance of a relatively oscillatory circuit.
- A high voltage variable ceramic capacitor is able to retain and supply a very high amount of energy or electricity that can be also controlled. The retaining capacity of energy along with the rate of flow can be adjusted through the device.
For an average person, a variable capacitor is an uncommon term. Little did they know that without these necessary device, the daily activities would've have been a different story.

Kalamazoo, Mancelona and Saginaw Students' 'Letters About Literature' Earn Statewide Awards, Donations for Local LibrariesContact: Casey Warner (517) 373-5578
April 6, 2009
The Michigan Center for the Book today announced the three state winners of Letters About Literature, a national writing contest in which young readers wrote letters to authors, living or dead, describing how the authors' work changed the students' way of thinking. One of the state winners also received recognition at the competition's national level.
"We received many thoughtful, heartfelt letters that demonstrate the power of books to touch the lives and engage the minds of young people," said Michigan Center for the Book Coordinator Karren Reish. "Each year we welcome this opportunity to help foster Michigan students' interest in literature and encourage them to cultivate the reading and writing skills that are key to academic success."
Michigan winners each will receive a letter of recognition and a $50 Target gift card. In addition, each winner's school or community library will receive a $300 Letters About Literature Reading Promotion Grant. Funding for these donations is provided solely by the National Center for the Book in partnership with Target.
The Michigan winners are:
Young readers across the country participated in this year's Letters About Literature competition, a reading promotion program of the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress, presented in partnership with Target. Six national finalists will receive a $500 Target gift card and $10,000 for their community or school library.
To enter, young readers write a personal letter to an author explaining how his or her work changed their view of the world or themselves. Readers can select authors from any genre -fiction or nonfiction, contemporary or classic. The contest theme encourages young readers to explore their personal response to a book, then express that response in a creative, original way.

Ambulance service warns locals to be prepared for bad weather
3:00pm Sunday 13th January 2013 in News By Anna Smith, Reporter
THE North West Ambulance Service has issued a warning to locals to be prepared for icy conditions.
Following the Met Office forecast for snow and ice this week, paramedics are now urging locals to stay vigilant.
A spokesman for the service said: "When temperatures fall, we always see a marked rise in the number of seriously ill patients; especially with respiratory problems and the number of people who have heart attacks and strokes.
"If you have a pre-existing medical condition ensure that you have sufficient medications.
"When you're outside, wear warm clothing, heavy coats, gloves and scarves.
"We ask people to look out for elderly neighbours, friends and relatives, and to help them out where they can.
"We traditionally see an increase in slips and trips due to icy conditions, which puts additional pressure on the service."
They urged motorists to plan journeys and check their vehicle is running well before setting off.
Locals with minor ailments should also make the most of GPs, pharmacists and NHS walk-in centres before ringing for an ambulance.
Derek Cartwright, North West Ambulance Service acting director of operations, said: "Ambulance Services are not there simply to transport people to a healthcare centre or hospital - our excellent staff are specially trained in dealing with trauma and life-threatening cases and this is where their expertise should be focused on.
"Heart attacks, strokes and other urgent incidents cannot wait, we need to get to these people as quickly as possible without having to divert from patients who have coughs and colds and other minor ailments that can be easily treated elsewhere."

I can't deny I will still get jealous when girls talk to you, I clearly know that I still love you. But right now, it seems like there's so many obstacles in front of us. Will you still be there for me like you promised? Will you still have time left for me? Will you lend me your shoulder when I need? Wipe away my tears when I'm sad? There's so many questions in my head yet there's nothing that I can do. All I wish for is you to not let go off my hand.

wee bit of knitting, pen1s shaped mushrooms, calendars are out!,
Aka stinkhorn,
Phallus ravenelii, looking rather disgusting after getting rained on.
These red mitts are for Mom. She says they make her arthritic hands feel better. I had wanted to finish them a month or so ago, but at least they're done. Made of cotton with elastic in it (Fixation). The gray wool ones are for a friend's mom in VT. I forget what kind of wool they're made of, something I had lying around.
Remember the Calendar Girls post? Well, the calendars are out! I'm April…
Get yours at Rocky Knoll Photography.
Election night… the dogs I was visiting were not especially interested in the results. Sid (the girls' bro) and another friend's pal Chester.
In other dog news… the girls got pruned today. Pics soon.
And in other family news, this boy turns 17 tomorrow.
Cripes, my photos are all a bit blurry. I think my lens needs cleaning. It's a tiny point and shoot, Sony T77… do they have a lifespan? Or am I just getting old and shaky?

Skiing, especially downhill skiing, may be highly dependent on strong leg muscles but overall conditioning builds a routine that burns calories, increases metabolism and can target muscles important for skiing but not usually concentrated on. For example, the inner and outer thigh muscles don't get a lot of work hiking or biking.
However, building and strengthening these muscles is important because they surround and stabilize the very, very important knee joint.
The most efficient and thorough strength workout is on Nautilus type exercise machines. "Nautilus" has become a generic term for any brand of exercise machine that isolates individual muscle groups. These machines are usually grouped so that moving from one machine to the next is a progression, or circuit of working related muscle groups.
These circuit machines have become very popular and you will surely find them if you belong to a YMCA, or most any modern health or fitness club. At first the machines may seem a little complicated or torturous looking, but be assured after a short while you will get the hang of bouncing from machine to machine for a some good strength training.
A Typical CircuitGenerically speaking, a circuit may typically be set up to work muscles in the following sequence:
- Leg muscles - A leg press for upper quads, a leg extension for lower quads, a leg curl for hamstrings, a calf press and hopefully a machine that works the inside and outside thigh muscles.
- Upper body muscles - A rowing or pulling motion for upper back, a chest muscle press and/or pulldown.
- Arm muscles - Curls for biceps, reverse curls for triceps and a flying motion for pecs and rear deltoids.
- Core muscles - an abdominal resistance and lower back resistance.
Strength Training = Weight ControlIt may not sound logical, but it is a fact that a strength training routine will help maintain your desired weight and pants size. Using the circuit machines to keep strong somehow kicks in a faster metabolism that can burn calories for a long time after a workout. So, when you are pumping iron (in moderation) and it's 90 degrees outside, think snow.
Strength Training Tips
- Ask for a demonstration. Every facility has a trained staff so be sure to ask for a Certified Trainer to demonstrate each machine in the circuit and watch you do a few repetitions to be sure you are doing the exercise correctly and getting the most out of each machine.
- Don't overdo it.] You certainly don't need to bench press or leg press 5 times your weight for better skiing. Don't push yourself to the point of risking an injury.
- Warm up first. Do some gentle stretching to start, then maybe add 10 minutes or so of a cardio exercise to raise the heart rate and break a little sweat. Elliptical or stair machines can be an alternative to treadmills and saves the knees.
- Keep a record. Many facilities provide a file with sheets listing all the machines that you can use as a log. Again don't overdue it but if you progress comfortably with weight increases you can see it is all worthwhile.

Why the United States Won't Need Troops in Afghanistan After 2014
August 2013
By Jeong Lee
General Joseph Dunford, the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) commander, has recently told the New York Times that America's "presence post-2014 is necessary for the gains we have made to date to be sustainable." His reasoning was that although the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) are bearing the brunt of fighting, "at the end of 2014, [they] won't be completely independent" operationally and logistically.

Select Route:
Nice straight-up hand crack that my friend Pete talked me into doing after we did the classic Spire Four route in August 2005. It is such a nice crack that I'm sure someone else has done it, and it may be in some guidebook, but it hadn't been recently climbed.
Start on the saddle for the 5.4 Spire Four route. In the alley, facing the Spire Four chimney, this crack is on your right about 20 feet from the chimney.
Eats up pro, finger to fist size. Bring rap ring and about 10-20 feet of webbing to sling spur.

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis announced Sunday that he would travel to Israel, the West Bank and Jordan on May 24-26, his first visit to the Holy Land and one that comes amid a new U.S. push for peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
Francis told thousands gathered in the rain for his weekly Sunday blessing that he was announcing, "in the climate of joy that is typical of the Christmas season," the three-day visit to Amman, Bethlehem and Jerusalem. It is the only trip so far confirmed for 2014 and the second foreign trip of Francis' pontificate, following his 2013 visit to Brazil for World Youth Day.
Francis said the prime aim was to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the historic meeting in Jerusalem between Pope Paul VI and the then-spiritual leader of the world's Orthodox Christians, Ecumenical Patriarch Atengora.

This has reached the point where it is annoying me. There is a common wisdom out there that Alex Ovechkin is a grossly overrated hockey player who only had one move and now that the "League" has "figured him out," he sucks. Unfortunately, like most common wisdom, it is anything but wise. It is ridiculous.
It didn't really bother me when Pens fans spewed it, because most of them are the same bandwagon jumpers they accuse Caps fans of being. They almost loss their team until an outstanding young hockey player named Sidney Crosby saved it for them, and they have shown no class ever since. When things don't go their way, they do things like walk out of a Winter Classic with 6 minutes left down only two with two of the best scorers in hockey on their team.
Then the Canadian media piled on. But I ignored that because that is largely a nationalism bias and many of them should be ashamed of themselves. But now I am hearing Caps fans say it. "What's wrong with Ovi? Why does he suck now?" That annoys me. Here I make only a few points. I could go on, but I think this will be sufficient.
Alex Ovechkin is 4th in NHL history in points per game in the playoffs according to the trusty Wikipedia machine. That's when it "matters," right? He is behind two losers named Gretzky and Lemieux, and Barry Pederson. Comparing Ovi to any of these guys given the differences in era is a bit silly, so lets compare him to a contemporary. The previously mentioned Sid the Kid is 5th behind Ovi. Ovi has 1.351 PPPG and Sid has 1.323. Ovi sucks.
Ovi had 2 goals tonight against the Detroit Redwings. He now has 32 goals and 24 assists for a total of 56 points. Another consecutive 30 goal season. This puts him 9th in goals in the league this season during a down year for him. 5 of the 8 guys ahead of Ovi play for teams with more points than the Caps and at least 6 of them are having career years. Ovi sucks.
Let's not forget that this is in a down season not only for Ovi (no one is denying that, only the idea that he sucks and is obscenely overrated), but for the team. They have been bad by any standard, but downright awful compared to the last 4 years. How down a season? Let's find out. Alex Semin is the second leading scorer on the Washington Capitals. He has 18 goals and 28 assists for 46 points. That is 10 less points than Ovi, and Ovi has nearly DOUBLE THE GOALS OF THE NEXT LEADING CAPS GOAL SCORER. Ovi clearly sucks.
Of course, Semin and Ovi don't play on the same line most of the time, and Ovi usually gets the better defensive competition, which focuses almost exclusively on him. So, let's compare apples to apples. The next highest scorer on the team that has routinely played on a line with Ovi this year is Nick Backstrom with 13 goals and 29 assists for 42 points, a full 14 points behind Ovi. But here is the thing -- Backstrom has not played in months! Leaving Nick aside, Marcus Johansson has the same number of goals and one less assist as Nick. He has played some of his time with Ovi, but no where near all of it. Ovi sucks.
So Ovi is in the top 10 in goals, but is in a tie for 128th in assists. Now surely some of this can be attributed to it being a down year for him, but a bigger part of the problem is that NO ONE ELSE IS PRODUCING. You can't get an assist if no one is scoring the goal. The next three guys who have played a significant *part* of the season on Ovi's line have all have 13 goals. Really lighting it up. Keep in mind that Ovi is 5th on the team in assists and 4th among forwards. He is third among forwards who have not been injured for 4 months, so it is not like Ovi is being selfish and failing to put line mates in a position to score. Assists are also not what Ovi is paid for, as opposed to someone like Sid, where half of his genius is setting up his line mates. Ovi sucks.
Ovi is a -10, but again this is not what he is paid for. It does, however, remind us that the Caps D has been abysmal, not only defensively, but offensively as well. Dennis Wideman is the exception (though he has significantly cooled off), but he has 15 points more than John Carlson, who is a -12. Mike Green, the Caps offensive defenseman superstar, has 7 points this year, due to a combination of injury and poor offensive play. Ovi sucks.
We will just leave out the coaching and system changes over the last 2 seasons. Ovi obviously sucks.
I can hear the haters now. "These are excuses. He is a $13 million a year player and has to play like it. He has to score 50 goals a season. He should be able to carry the team on his shoulders for that money just like Sid does" Bull. Anyone who thinks that is just delusional. A season has to be examined in context.
Oh, and for the Pens fans, I have said from the beginning that if I had to build a team around one guy, it would probably be Sid (despite his being a baby) not Ovi, but they are completely different players. The comparison has always been a bit silly, even when Ovi had the advantage for a while there. It worked for the NHL marketing folks, so there you go.
Is he having a down year? Yes. Does he have to make some adjustments? Probably. Does he suck? Of course not. Is he anywhere near sucking? No. Is he an overrated player who suddenly has nothing because he has been figured out? Most likely not. Let's see what happens between now and when he turns, oh, I don't know, 28. Sorry, haters.
Oh, btw, want some visual evidence? Check out his goal against Chicago two nights ago.

Aviation Maintenance
Life as a jet engine
"Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth, And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air. "Up, up the long delirious burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, where never lark, or even eagle, flew; and, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of God." ~ Gillespie Magee
The Aircraft Maintenance Technician Certificate is broken down into Airframe and Powerplant segments. Each provides a world of opportunities to the individual who enjoys working with aircraft. It is a professional career that involves a scientific knowledge of principles and practice in areas such as metal structures, composites, welding, machining, electrical components and systems, electronics, environmental systems, aircraft instruments, fuel systems, hydraulics and pneumatics, engine overhaul, reciprocating engine systems, propellers, and jet engine systems, and much more.
Graduates from Andrews are working in various parts of the world for many different companies. Mission pilots are usually maintenance technicians as well. There are many openings for Aviation Maintenance Technicians. Anticipated retirement of older technicians is encouraging the industry to search widely for younger men and women who can step into their positions. Work hours are, for the most part regular, including safe and clean working conditions
Why Study at Andrews?
With its own airfield within walking distance from campus, Andrews University offers a competitive aviation maintenance program that will ensure your competence at graduation. The Aviation Maintenance, Bachelor of Technology degree is offered at Andrews University in a Christian environment where the instructor is interested in the academic, spiritual, and social life of the student. Within the curriculum aviation maintenance students get hands on experience wrenching their way through the syllabus, working on aircraft like Cessna 150's, T-33, Lear 24, and the latest addition to our maintenance fleet, an Mitsubishi MU2. By having some of these larger turbo prop planes, the students get actual practice working on the engine, rather than just talking about it in the classroom.
The degree may be combined with Flight or Business. Other combinations are also available in consultation with the department and students' academic advisor. When combining Flight with Aviation Maintenance, the summer months are used to gain extra flight time if the student desires to complete the course in less than four years. Flight certificates through Multi-Engine Instructor, and the Airframe and Powerplant segments can be completed in just over two years each. Keep in mind that there are two year associate degrees available also.
Still not convinced?
"The Andrews University Aircraft Maintenance Technician program is really a place for anyone who wants to learn. The program is designed to teach even those without any previous maintenance knowledge. When I first started at Andrews I didn't even know how a reciprocating engine worked. Two years later I became employed as a mechanic for a fleet of turbine powered helicopters. If your next goal is to become an Aircraft mechanic, the instructors at AU will work tirelessly to get you there." Connor McCain AMT 2013 now works for Central Helicopters in Bozeman Montana.

Biggest gainer: Full House Resorts Inc.
Full House saw its stock jump 17 percent this week to close at $3.70 after it was approved as a gaming licensee by the Mississippi Gaming Commission.
The finding of suitability should clear the way for the company to complete its $70 million purchase of the Silver Slipper Casino in Hancock County. The property has nearly 1,000 slot and video poker machines.
Even so, Full House's stock price appears to be quite volatile as it dipped 35 cents or 9.5 percent in after-hours trading Friday.
Biggest loser: Caesars Entertainment Corp.
Four of the largest casino operators saw their stock prices fall this week as the broader stock market treaded water, with the Standard & Poor's 500 falling 0.3 percent.
Wynn Resorts Ltd. stock eked out a 1 percent gain from its Sept. 14 close, while MGM Resorts International stock fell 6 percent. Las Vegas Sands Corp. stock fell 3.9 percent, while Boyd Gaming Corp. stock was off 1 percent.
The biggest loser among all local stocks, however, was Caesars Entertainment Corp., which fell 9.2 percent to $6.87.
Investors likely considered Caesars' continuing losses and hefty debt load, as well as the failure of Congress to enact poker legislation so that Caesars could benefit from its heavy investment in online gaming.
On top of that, the Motley Fool investor website said Caesars had received a "dreaded one-star ranking'' of stocks likely to plunge. That's based on the aggregated intelligence of 62 investors.
Some good news did come Caesars' way. USA Today named its new Bacchanal Buffet the best buffet in Las Vegas. The company also announced that its Strip redevelopment efforts are continuing with the announcement that "the Quad" will be the new name for Imperial Palace.

KKB: I've always worked for charities all my life. giving back is in my DNA. Even when I had no money to give, I've always given my time.

KKB: Open sky is an incredible onlineshop where I can promote style and fashion from my friend's work for a price that is affordable.
HS: What is your secret to juggling it all?
KKB: Always remember the American dream is work to live, not the opposite. Everyone can give their time to charity. You dont have to have money to have empathy for others in need.

Ever missed the feeling of home when staying at luxury hotels across the country? Well, you can now find a cure for your homesickness by taking up residence in the executive apartments offered by a number of five-star properties. Whether housed within the hotel or built specifically for residential purposes, luxury hotels are now catering to the long-stay customer by providing elegant accommodations with all the expected amenities. Archana Achal takes a look at the few luxury residences offered in the country.

The Grand Hyatt Mumbai is said to be South Asia's largest multi-dimensional lifestyle complex and within this area is located the Grand Hyatt Residences.

These are mostly guests from the expatriate community, international travellers and business men going through the process of relocation. They choose the Residences that are attached to the hotel, albeit present in its own six-storey tower. Still, all the residences have access to the hotel amenities like the restaurants and bars, fitness centre, spa, pool and daily housekeeping.

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - The Knox County Sheriff's Office says the fire that claimed a West Knox County man's mobile home was intentionally set by robbers.
Donald Thomas of Yarnell Road told deputies that on Sunday night around 7 p.m. he heard his dog barking and got up from his couch to find out if anyone was outside.
He said two men came into the home through the back door and pushed Thomas onto his couch, demanding money.
The men took about $60 in cash and $60 worth of costume rings.
Thomas said the two men had a gas can and began spreading it around the living room and kitchen, then ignited it before fleeing.
Thomas said he was able to get out before firefighters arrived and was taken to Parkwest Hospital for treatment of smoke inhalation and injuries sustained during the assault.
The victim said he did not know the intruders.
Firefighters said Sunday the home was a total loss.

ARVADA - A homeowner in an Arvada condominium was taken to the hospital and a dog was given oxygen after dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide were discovered inside their home.
Arvada Fire paramedics were called to the home at 10373 West 80th Drive Tuesday afternoon for a medical call. When crews entered the home, their carbon monoxide meter alerted them to potentially dangerous levels of the gas.
Arvada Fire says levels reached 800 parts per million.
The resident was transported to the hospital, but is not believed to be in life-threatening condition.
A small dog inside the home was given oxygen on scene and transported to a local veterinarian.
Arvada Fire crews have checked neighboring units and say there levels of CO are normal in those homes. They have not yet discovered the source of the gas.
A spokesperson for Arvada Fire says the home was equipped with a carbon monoxide detector, but the batteries had been removed.

Moss traded back to Vikes
I can't stand Belichick, but you've got to admit that he's nobody's fool. Anyone who watched the Pats take apart the Dolphins on Monday night realizes that this team doesn't really need Moss and his ego anyway. Like Big Ben, Tom Brady can make any receiver look like a world-beater. So now the Pats get a third-round pick next year, probably a player that will help them for years to come, in exchange for an expensive, aging receiver. But the main thing that intrigued me about the game on Monday night is that Moss wasn't even a factor. In fact, Brady completed passes to nearly everyone except the ball boy.

Multiple Sclerosis Rehabilitation
Personalized Treatment for MS Symptoms
For many people living with multiple sclerosis , also called MS, the greatest challenge is managing day-to-day living despite side effects such as numbness and tingling, weakness in the limbs, tremors, visual loss, fatigue, depression, spasticity, and bladder, bowel, or sexual problems.
While multiple sclerosis cannot be cured, its symptoms can be managed in part through rehabilitation including physical, occupational and speech therapies—allowing you to achieve a better quality of life. But because MS affects every person differently, it's important that you seek a customized treatment plan tailored for your needs.
The goal of rehabilitation for people with multiple sclerosis is to help alleviate symptoms and compensate for some of the physical and neurological problems caused by the disease. Specifically, therapy can address:
- Muscle and joint stiffness, pain and weakness
- Balance problems
- Lack of coordination
- Trouble walking (gait)
- Fatigue

Central Park Nuclear Power Plant
As I was reading the New York Post today I spotted an article written by Annie Karni about the Landmarks Commission and its' decision to include a unexceptional gas station in its' Landmark status.
The owner of the gas station was irate over this fact. MarcelloPorcetti wanted to take his 11k square feet lot and build a seven story condo development. Too bad Marcello the Landmarks Preservation Commission's purview thought otherwise.
I suddenly felt for this man who I did not know. I myself have been done wrong by the Landmarks Commission. Back in 2010 some of you might remember the Ground Zero Mosque firestorm. After all the meetings and public debate over this very hot topic it eventually came down to the Landmarks Commission as being the one agency to stop Sharif El Gamal and his Park 51 Group from erecting their Victory Mosque on the ashes of our dead loved ones. Well even though the building in question: The Burlington Coat Factory which had been on the docket for Landmark status for the last 2 decades was suddenly ready to be heard on a public forum to rush to get their proposed Mosque built. Mayor Bloomberg who had fast-tracked the project like no other construction project I had ever seen had staffers influence the commissioners how to vote. So regardless of the fact that the 1st strike of the 911 Attack was the landing gear from the 1st plane crashing thru the roof of the Burlington Coat Factory building destroying several interior landings well before the plane hit hit Tower 1. Additionally the highest concentration of DNA remains were located on this building as well. How could they not give this Landmark status? Well when the Mayor who appointed you says vote this way or else you VOTE THIS WAY!
Along with our Muslim Brotherhood Groupie Ahmed Bloomberg there was Cuomo, Schumer, Weiner ( Twitter Idiot) Gillabrand ( Schumer's latest Frankenstein) Nadler and our New Jersey RINO Governor Chris Christie AND the man himself Barak Obama. Now with a support group like that think of what you could do …….like an alternative energy source. How do we get this group to support such a move? I GOT IT!
Lets build a Nuclear Power Plant in Central Park. Think of all the power it will give the tri state area. We could start making them cross country- it could have a real positive effect on this gas crisis we are dealing with….but how do we get a group like these Rainmakers to Green Light it? I GOT IT! We call it the: The Central Park Islamic Nuclear Power Plant. I can see it now Obama would be there to break a stick of Uranium across the centrifuge while Chris Christie starts serving Yellow Cake to all the others. Schumer could do the ribbon cutting while Bloomberg calls us racists and MSNBC blames the Republicans for anything that goes wrong in advance. All is right.

\nSet in Kigali\, Rwanda's capital\, t his radiantly self-referential film-within-a-film describes the vision and trials of a determined filmmaker named Balthazar\, as he tries to produce his first feature\, The Cycle of the Cockroach. The trenchant drama\, abo ut a brother and sister dealing with the aftermath of genocide\, finds no support from agencies only interested in funding upbeat policy-friendly fi lms. As Balthazar borrows recklessly from a loan shark\, the Cycle plays o ut on the screen\, subtly measuring the horror and systematic madness of e vents hardly unique to Rwanda\, while offering bracing insight into the na ture of political violence.
About the Director: Kivu Ruhorahoza was born in Kigali\, Rwanda in 1982. A self-taug ht filmmaker\, he won the award for Best African Short at Montreal's 25th Pan African International Film Festival and Best Short at the Kenya Intern ational Film Festival in 2009 for his short film\, Lost in the South.
