Steven Osborne interview: 'I can feel the piece inside me, almost like a baby'
What happens when a great pianist tackles a great composer? Time Out meets Steven Osborne to find out
Mon Aug 19 2013

How do you tell if someone is a great pianist rather than a very good one? After all, just playing the right notes in the right order is a given for even the most modestly talented player. So what is it that makes one pianist hit you in the guts and plunge you into the sound world of a composer while another, playing the same music, makes you feel nothing – despite flailing their arms around with their eyes closed?
The answer is that what you hear is the result of myriad choices a pianist has made about a piece – interpretations of tempo, dynamics, articulation, pacing and structure – to the extent that the work is almost as much about the performer as it is the composer.
So who are these great pianists? It can be a bewildering task, finding the best among the vast and increasing well of professional players. Perhaps one should look to the distinguished juries of awards panels for guidance. Accordingly, Steven Osborne qualifies as great: he scooped both the Royal Philharmonic Society Award for Instrumentalist of the Year, and the Gramophone Classical Music Award for Best Instrumental Album ('Pictures at an Exhibition') this year. Add to that an invitation to curate a five-concert cycle at the prestigious Wigmore Hall and I think we can safely say he is worth checking out.
Raised in Linlithgow, 42-year-old Scottish pianist now lives in Edinburgh's New Town with his wife, American clarinettist Jeannie Johnson. Laidback and thoughtful, he approaches the masterworks with a great deal of modesty, drawing captivating moods from his instrument in a completely unshowy style.
At the moment, he is learning the most technically difficult of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas, the vast 'Hammerklavier', written in 1818. The composer, he declares, is one of 'the absolute greatest', although, according to Osborne, on paper this particular sonata is one of the most unpianistic things ever written. 'It is incredibly awkward,' he says, 'but it makes it so satisfying when you start to get a hold of it.'
One imagines him wrestling with it at home on his Steinway grand. 'Actually, I do almost all my work on a Yamaha keyboard,' he reveals. 'I find that the worse the keyboard I have, the better it is for performing. It is very difficult to get a good sound out of it, so you are constantly going deeper and deeper into it, so you get used to trying to make it more vivid. Which means when you come to a real piano, suddenly you have this incredible possibility.'

Surely he doesn't practise with headphones on? 'No, I play with the volume low,' he explains, 'but I know for some people it is a blasphemy to be learning all these great Beethoven sonatas on this electronic keyboard, but it suits me. For me, practising is as much about how it feels as how it sounds. The piano is so loud; it is quite nice not to be overwhelmed by the sound and just be aware of what it feels like.'
The 'Hammerklavier' sonata is one of the pinnacles of the repertoire but what does he bring to it? 'Thousands upon thousands of decisions, not all of them conscious,' he reflects. 'This idea that you are just letting the composer speak is an absolute red herring. It is impossible. If you have heard a midi file of a classical piece, that is what it sounds like if you just let the score speak – mechanical. Just to play one phrase beautifully is an enormous imposition of your own character.'
So it's an equal effort from him and Beethoven? 'I see it as a collaboration of equals in a way,' Osborne says. 'To be clear, I'm not saying we are equal to the composer, but that our responses are as important as what is written there.'
But where does one end and the other begin in terms of the final musical result? 'It feels like the two can't be separated because I have given so much,' he muses. 'I can feel a big thing inside me, which is the piece, almost like a baby or something. It is like it's mine, a part of me. Of course, it is so entirely Beethoven and yet it's how I conceived his music. In the end, I couldn't really say what was me and what was him.'
Steven Osborne starts his five-concert series at Wigmore Hall on Oct 1 2013 with an all-Beethoven programme.

The Olympic event of 'town planning'?
Matt Cardy/Getty Images
Members of the Great Britain Rhythmic Gymnastics Team practice their routine on July 18, 2012 in Bath, England. The team have been preparing for the London 2012 Olympics at the Sports Training Village at the University of Bath.
There are some official Olympic sports like rhythmic gymnastics, synchronized diving and curling that are not always the most highly regarded. While some doubt the importance of these sports as Olympic events, there have been official events in the history of the Olympics that are downright absurd. Previous bizarre sports included sculpture at the military patrol from 1924 through 1948, tug of war at the 1900 Paris Games, and perhaps the most preposterous of all was the 1936 event of town planning.
Which competition do you think should be added back into the Olympics? Are there any current events that do not deserve to be included in the Olympics? What criteria should be used to determine which sports are included?

Cum Watch These Fat Black Babes Crave That Big Cock!
That gorgeous smile could attract a lot of attention, but it's Chanel Dior's big fucking tits and juicy ass that really gets guys drooling all over her! And she's all smiles because she loves having her big beautiful black body fucked hard. She gets stripped down to her g-string, and gets on her knees to swallow this white cock whole, covering it in her warm drool before laying down on the couch and spreading her thigh high stocking covered legs open wide for his cock. If you think watching those big boobs sway when she's getting rammed is hot enough, wait until you see that ass jiggle when she's on top or getting it from behind!

Problems after knee replacement surgery are extremely rare. Here we will look at the general risks of any surgery, and the specific risks and long term problems that can be associated with partial knee replacements. If you have had a total knee replacement instead, visit the TKR problems/risks section instead.
Generally, people recover really well after knee replacement surgery. They are up out of bed walking around the next day and usually regain full range of movement and strength.
It may be painful for the first few days after a partial knee replacement, but people often find the knee pain is actually less severe than beforehand as they no longer have the arthritis pain.
There may be persistant numbness around the scar, which is due some of the small nerve fibres being disrupted during the surgery, but this is usually minor and often recovers with time.
With any surgery, there are risks but they are extremely rare. These include:
1) Bleeding: at the operation site
2) Blood Clots: which can break off and travel around the body occasionally causing a stroke or heart attack
3) Infection: usually at the site but the infection can spread around your body.
Risks for anaesthesia include breathing problems and reactions to the medications.
Your surgeon will discuss all of these with your prior to your surgery. If you have any questions, always ask your doctor until you are happy that you understand what exactly is involved.
Specific risks after knee replacement surgery are rare. Sometimes people find there is:
1) Swelling: around the knee joint. You can help to reduce this by using ice, keeping your leg elevated, wearing tubigrip and doing your exercises
2) Pain kneeling: It can sometimes be uncomfortable to kneel after knee replacement surgery. You can make it more comfortable by kneeling on a pillow/cushion, or by wearing gel knee pads - especially good for gardening and housework
3) Complex Regional Pain Syndrome: this is very rare. It develops when there is a problem with your circulation and sensation which results in long term pain and swelling
Recovery tends to be quicker after a partial knee replacement than after a total knee replacement as the surgery is less extensive and more of the knee is preserved such as the ligaments. Long term problems after knee replacement are rare but include:
1) Wearing of the prosthesis: the joint implants can gradually wear over time. 92% of partial knee replacements last at least 20 years
2) Loosening of the prosthesis: the implant may become loose which can cause pain and limit mobility. If this occurs, you will probably need to have a total knee replacement
3) Infection in the knee joint: this can occur years after surgery
You will know if something is seriously wrong as the knee will become very painful, it may swell, and you may notice redness around the knee joint. Occasionally this may be accompanied by a fever. If this happens talk to your doctor immediately.

DOOM you have a plan?
November 16, 2013
I do. In fact, not only do I have a plan, I also have a backup plan, and a Plan B. And I set them in motion about 3 years ago*… Why, yes, dear reader, I am one of those deranged creatures who thinks the hardest part of the apocalypse will be trying to pretend I'm not excited!!!
So when Alex Tinsley of Dull Roar fame put out a call for submissions for Doomsday Knits, I knew I had to shoot something off. This was my book dammit! The one I had to get into! This was what all my crafting, all my reading and movie watching had been leading up to! But when the initial euphoria wore off, I realised I hadn't a clue what to submit. Ack.
Obviously, I got there in the end, which is why I'm on this blog tour, writing a post on my personal apocalypse – in the dictionary sense of the word 'apocalypse', meaning revelation, discovery, vision of future events**. You see, I am not someone you want to take to the latest blockbuster sci-fi release: the last time that happened, I subjected my date to an hour-long disquisition on the accuracy of Kubrick's and Clarke's representation of HAL 9000, vis-à-vis current and projected technological advances, halted only by his sudden remembrance of another appointment***.
While I absorb sci-fi through my pores like a geeky sponge, I am simultaneously horrified and entertained by The Rongness of it all. For me to suspend disbelief, there must be a coherent internal logic. Technology that's at least theoretically possible (George Lucas, I'm looking at you), a plausible political and historical backdrop (last warning, George), no life-forms based on an LSD-fuelled Lovecraftian version of evolution (George! go to your room!)… oh, and it'd nice if the end of the Universe as we know and love it wasn't just an excuse to dress women in skimpy and/or impractical clothing (George! stop that at once – you'll go blind!). Colour me dubious when Aunty Entity can move around in her chainmail frock without a forklift, or Alice apparently sprints from Evil Residents in a corset and thigh boots.
The Utility Corset, which appears in the Dystopian Dandies section of the book, is a garment to redress the undressed and under-dressed heroines of the future. Knit flat from the bottom up, it features increases, decreases and yarn-overs for shaping. If you've ever had to be assisted into a real whalebone corset, you'll appreciate the convenience of the i-cord straps which tie the Utility Corset around the body. This resoundingly practical piece is complete with hanging loops and hidden pockets for holding your essential survival gear, leaving your arms free to deal bloody vengeance, merciful release or whoop-ass justice as the scenario requires, while the amazing weather-proof properties of Donegal Yarns' Aran Tweed will keep you warm through the nuclear winter and beyond.
You can check out the Doomsday Knits patterns on Ravelry - a new one will be uploaded every day in
November DOOMvember – and you can pre-order the book there or at Cooperative Press. Of course if you're reading this in December The Future, you can just buy it, no waiting around. Unless you get in a time machine and go back to DOOMvember, because then the last sentence would be a temporal paradox and Kathryn Janeway would kill me and my post would never have happened and you would have to buy the book on http://www.Amazon.deltaquadrant. Or something.
Tomorrow on DOOMvember, the hugely talented Alexandra Virgiel is up, with Bulletproof. I've been admiring her work since BR (Before Ravelry), so it's a real honour for me to be included in the same publication!
And so, to bed. Sleep well, and keep a light on…
* – in the sense that I moved back to Ireland. As far as I know, we're not on anyone's nuclear hit-list. Oh, and there's the half-acre I'm growing potatoes on. Emergency chickens are planned too, just as soon as I get a henhouse built. I have a cat I'm training to hunt food larger than itself (sorry, bunny family), and the dog who'll protect me by jumping on people and, err, slobbering horribly…
** – The word you want for the end-times is Eschaton. Bazinga!
*** – I've never had much success with men. Go figure.
Probably the only zombie survival guide you'll ever need…
September 12, 2013
So exciting! I can finally begin to talk about something that's been under wraps for, oooh, about 18 months now! FYI, this has been killing me all this time. Secrets are not my forte. Thumbscrews, racks, etc., are wasted on me – just give me an audience and I will spill all.
I have a pattern in a Cooperative Press book (so proud…)! My first ever submission, too (so, so proud…)! AND — it's available to pre-order right now!!!
It'll be physically published in December 2013, but ya know, (nuclear) Winter Is Coming, so go on over there and reserve your copy now. It's a win-win – not only will you be properly kitted out for the apocalypse, but you'll have marketable items you can trade for petrol and Twinkies, and you'll be armed with repurposeable stakes and garrottes, and a nice heavy book to whack Reevers over the head with. Nifty, huh?
More info soon – watch out for DOOMvember – 30 Days (and Nights) to prepare. What(er) World will you choose to survive in? Will you find (knitting) Serenity? Or will you be 28 Days Late(r)?

It's been discussed for decades, but City of Buffalo officials have finally gotten the ball rolling on plans to redevelop close to 200 acres of landfills in South Buffalo. YNN's Meg Rossman has more on plans for a potential golf course in the city and how it's part of a larger plan to revitalize the area.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — "Our primary objective is to create some recreational value out of what are now unproductive lands," Buffalo Urban Development Corporation Vice President David Stebbins said. "For all intents and purposes, they're going to be landfills forever, unproductive pieces of land."
Which could mean turning 200 acres of a South Buffalo landfill into a premiere golf course.
Though nothing is set in stone, the city's urban development corporation voted last week to hire an architectural firm to study whether a public course between Hopkins and Tifft Street would be feasible, and officials believe the potential for a 72-par course would certainly be more welcome than the alternative.
"I think it could be very vibrant. I think not only would it pull city residents, I think it would pull residents from across the region," Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said.
It would also mean getting rid of a nine-hole course at South Park, allowing officials to restore its original design. It's part of a larger plan to redevelop what's known as the South Buffalo Brownfield Opportunity Area.
"Everything south of the Buffalo River to the city line and from Hopkins to the railroad or Route 5," Stebbins explained. "So, this is one project of many."
Whether or not South Buffalo residents are in favor of the plan, however, is up for some debate.
"It could possibly work but I'm not going to say it can't," Donald Anderson said. "I'm not a golfer."
Stebbins said he'll have a better idea when it's presented for community feedback. He estimates the course could cost anywhere between $4 million and $12 million and expects to have the results of the study in by September.

Where are we?
I've kinda been neglecting this journal....I've been so lazy.What is there to talk about.Family...family..family.I just got back from my trip to Kansas. I'm so happy I went and got the chance to reconnect with family that I havent seen in 2 and 3 and in some case 5 and even 10 years. I'm doing a whole lot better in my life right now. I'm much more stable with allows me to be able to make these connections without fear that I'll have moved in a month.So....one of my goals for 2005 (i made a list) is to travel to North Carolina, Kansas, Indiana and Philly at least once in the year. In church, my dad announced Norma as his "fiance". Ehhhh. She annoyed me for most of the trip. She talks entirely too much, (but so does my mother). I hope my dad will be happy, however I cant say that I'm happy at all about him getting married again. And it sucks ass that I didnt get to see my mother at all over the break, but I had to spend time with "her". I spent new years eve at home. alone. watched my new anchorman DVD then fell asleep. I've cant remember when I've been so happy and so sad all at once. Well, that's not true...i'm always happy and sad. It seems like I can never get all the pieces to the puzzle correct. My career is doing great and I'm finally getting what I worked for...but I feel alone as I come home to my empty place everyday. And I work far too many hours (but thats a different subject altogether). I wish I could be closer to my family, so in this year I will make every attempt to spend time with them.

Speed, power, beauty

I Love The Xk8! — gorgoeus body, smooth curves and large round fenders, not many automobiles can compare with the look of this car. Lots of wood inside and beautifully stitched leather. I like the sport button option; when I get on the freeway - I just press the button and it takes off like a rocket ship!

Economic woes stall Irish exports
The Irish Exporters Association has downgraded its 2011 growth projection from 7 percent to 5 percent after a rough third quarter. Although Irish shippers saw a 12-percent surge in food exports from July to September, total export sales only grew 1.7 percent from the third quarter of 2010 — a casualty of debt crises across the Eurozone, IEA officials explained.
The most upsetting third-quarter result was the nearly 3-percent decrease in manufactured/merchandise goods, according to members of the association. IEA CEO John Whelan said this loss is so problematic, in fact, that it could impair the Irish economy if it continues.
Still, all hope isn't lost, he explained. "The poor showing of exports in the third quarter does not detract from the positive growth posted so far this year," Whelan said in a statement. After all, export levels from January to September surged 5.4 percent, year-over-year, with computer hardware exports increasing 13 percent from the first nine months of 2010.
Unfortunately, the third quarter wasn't quite as profitable for computer hardware exports. In addition to shipping lower quantities of these goods, Irish exporters also reported a third-quarter slowdown in the pharmaceutical/chemical sector. And it's these losses that led IEA officials to slash their 2011 growth projection.
To avoid future troubles, Whelan encouraged Ireland-based shippers to diversify their client lists. Instead of focusing primarily on shipments to nations like the U.S., Irish exporters need to seek out countries with strong economic growth, he remarked.
"I have no doubt that a premium return can be expected from increasing support to exporters to expand in the fast-growing emerging markets, particularly the 'BRIC economies' — Brazil, Russia, India and China," Whelan said in a statement.
This will certainly be a break from traditional operations, he maintained. "The fact that the EU and the U.S. markets currently account for over 80 percent of Irish export sales dramatically illustrates the need for a sustained and targeted approach to developing sales in the emerging markets," Whelan concluded.

New Mexico Department of Game and Fish
Contact: Ross Morgan, 505-222-4707
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, Feb. 5, 2007:
Cougar Sightings Increase Due to Heavy Snowfall
ALBUQUERQUE - This winter's heavy snowfall has driven deer and elk to lower elevations than typical during the last decade of drought. Combined with continued residential development in traditional deer and elk wintering grounds, the table is now set for increased sightings of cougars near housing areas.
Since Christmas, the Department of Game and Fish has received regular reports of cougars near Tesuque. Cougar reports expanded to include La Cienega, southwest of Santa Fe and the Barranca Mesa, near Los Alamos , last weekend.
"The cougars aren't causing any problems at this time," said Officer Tim Frybarger, Chama District Supervisor. "The residents just thought it would be a good idea to let everyone know that there are cougars in these areas," Frybarger said.
Residents of cougar country should take a few precautions to avoid encounters with the large predators:
Attacks are very rare, however, anyone who actually encounters a cougar should not try to run away. Running could trigger the animal's attack instinct.
Other actions to take during a cougar encounter are:
Anyone with questions about large predators should call the Department of Game and Fish and request the "Living With Large Predators" brochure. It includes these tips, plus information about black bears, coyotes and bobcats.
The brochure also appears on the Department web site at www.wildlife.state.nm.us/.

TOWSON, MD (July 9, 2013) – AAA Mid-Atlantic reminds parents, guardians, and caregivers of the dangers when leaving children unattended in cars during the summer, as the inside temperature of a vehicle can reach up to 131 to 172 degrees Fahrenheit when parked in direct sunlight, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
So far this year, 19 children across the country have died after being trapped in an unattended vehicle. Sadly, two young children in the Baltimore-Washington metro region died last Friday, July 5, when caregivers forgot to drop them off at daycare, only to find them unresponsive in their respective cars several hours later on a day when the heat index was well above 90 degrees.
"These deaths prove a painful point – children cannot be left unattended in cars," said Ragina C. Averella, Manager of Public and Government Affairs for AAA Mid-Atlantic. "It's important to remember that temperatures inside a car on a day with outside temperatures in the mid-to-high 90's can quickly soar to nearly 200 degrees, which is hot enough to cook many foods and to kill most living things. Never leave children or pets in a parked car. If you do see a child or pet locked in a car and cannot find the owner of the vehicle, call 911 immediately."
Since 1998, there have been at least 559 heatstroke deaths of children left in cars, according to San Francisco State University's Department of Geosciences. On average, 38 children die each year, or one every 9 days, as a result of being left in hot cars.
According to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the risk of serious injury or death during hot weather is heightened for children left alone in vehicles. Heatstroke, which is a form of hyperthermia, is the leading cause of non-crash vehicle deaths for children under the age of 14, representing 61 percent of non-crash related fatalities in this age group.
AAA Mid-Atlantic and NHTSA offer the following safety tips:
· Never leave a child alone in a car – even with the windows partially opened – as a vehicle's interior can still heat up quickly to deadly temperatures.
· Do not leave your children in a running vehicle with the air conditioner on even for a few minutes; your child may put the car into drive or even get caught in a closing power window, not to mention that you increase the risk of your vehicle being carjacked and your child abducted.
· Make a habit of looking in the vehicle – front and back – before locking the door and walking away. Children have died because they fell asleep in their car seats and their parents or caregivers didn't realize they were still in the car.
· If your spouse or a guardian is taking your children to day care ask him or her to call you to make sure the drop-off went according to plan.
· Do things to remind you that a child is in the vehicle:
· Leave a written note in your vehicle where you will see it as you leave the vehicle, such as on the dashboard area.
· Place your purse, briefcase or something else you need in the back seat where your child is seated so that you will have to check that area when you leave the vehicle.
· Keep an object in your child's car seat, such as a stuffed toy. When the child is buckled in, place the object where the driver will notice it when leaving the vehicle, as a reminder that a child is in the back seat.
· Do not let your children play in an unattended vehicle – teach them that a car is not a play area; always lock your car doors and keep car keys out of children's reach.
NHTSA offers additional tips on keeping children safe at safecar.gov.

"Our team worked hard during the off season this year," Wellsville coach Andy Wright said. "We went to few camps and wrestled at least an extra 30-40 matches during the spring and summer. We made some huge gains and experience some success last year."
Wellsville has more than 20 wrestlers on the squad for the 2013-14 season, plus returns all their varsity wrestlers from a year ago. The leaders are the four state tourney qualifiers: senior Deagan Asebedo and sophomores Tayler Wilmarth, Dylan Leckner and JT Thomas.
Asebedo led the Eagles in takedowns, escapes and falls last year.
Senior Drake Williams and Michael Kunard return. Williams was 22-19 and one match away from state last year.
Wright said he has high expections.
Senior Tim Williams is in his second year of wrestling.
"Coming in this year with experience, he should have more success," Wright said.
"If healthy, they both could be a major asset to our program this year," Wright said.
The sophomore class gives Wellsville depth. Wright said Dalton Good, Gage Leckner, Garrett Cunningham, Nathan Cunningham, David Williams, Bryce Smith all wrestled junior varsity and varsity matches last year and will help contribute to our team success this year.
There are seven freshmen on the squad. Reece Williams has the most experience.

Cruise ship COSTA CONCORDIA aground
Italy cruise ship Costa Concordia aground near Giglio
14 January 2012 Last updated at 05:40
At least six people are reported dead after a cruise ship carrying more than 4,000 people ran aground off Italy. The Costa Concordia hit a sandbar on Friday evening near the island of Giglio and listed about 20 degrees, after which people tried to reach land in lifeboats or by swimming. The last 50 people on board are being evacuated by helicopter in a "worsening" situation. Italians, Germans, French and British were among the 3,200 passengers. In addition, 1,000 crew were on board the vessel. One thousand passengers were Italian, with 500 Germans and 160 French. The Costa Concordia had sailed earlier on Friday from Civitavecchia port near Rome for a Mediterranean cruise, due to dock in Marseille after calling at ports in Sicily, Sardinia and Spain.
'Groaning noise'
Passengers were eating dinner on Friday evening, when they heard a loud bang, and were told that the ship had suffered electrical problems, one passenger told Italy's Ansa news agency. "We were having supper when the lights suddenly went out, we heard a boom and a groaning noise, and all the cutlery fell on the floor," said Luciano Castro.
The 290-metre (950 ft) vessel ran aground, starting taking in water and listing by 20 degrees, the local coast guard said. Orders were given to abandon ship, Deodato Ordona, a cabin steward on the Costa Concordia, told the BBC. "We announced a general emergency and took passengers to muster stations," he said. "But it is hard to launch the lifeboats, so they moved to the right side of the ship, and they could launch." Elderly passengers were crying, said Mr Ordona, adding that he and some others jumped into the sea and swam roughly 400 metres to reach land.
Rescued passengers are being accommodated in hotels, schools and a church on Giglio, a resort island 25km (18 miles) off Italy's western coast. Costa Crociera, the company which owns the ship, said it could not yet say what had caused the accident. "The gradual listing of the ship made the evacuation extremely difficult," a statement said. "The position of the ship, which is worsening, is making more difficult the last part of the evacuation. "We'd like to express our deepest gratitude to the coastguard and other emergency services, including the authorities and citizens of the island of Giglio, who did their best in saving and helping the passengers and crew."

Enchanted Garden
A Canadian landscape designer and his wife have cultivated a lush cottage garden as an extension of their straw bale house.
By Ed McCann
Enchanted Garden
Country Cottage
The Three Little Pigs never imagined a straw house such as this -- a stuccoed post-and-beam structure with straw bale infill for insulation. Landscape designer David Warburton and his wife, Anne-Marie, built their straw bale house an hour northwest of Toronto for all sorts of practical reasons, but it also stands as a reaction to "alternative" houses that conserve resources at the expense of aesthetics. "Our first priority was to build a beautiful home," says David. With a bulging file of images torn from magazines, the couple met with an architect who synthesized elements from the Adirondacks, southern France, New Mexico, and Scandinavia into a pleasing, cohesive whole.

Boeing uses sacks of potatoes to streamline testson December 19, 2012 @ 12:48 pm (Updated: 1:00 pm - 12/19/12 )
Boeing has a secret weapon when it comes to its latest work to give the company a competitive edge in the jet airplane market: sacks of potatoes.
On Wednesday, the company announced a technological breakthrough that vastly cut down the time needed to perform the latest round of tests aimed at improving the your WiFi experience when in flight. The goal was to develop a more "reliable connectivity [for passengers] using networked personal electronic devices in the air."
The breakthrough isn't the potatoes, it's some technological combination of tools and statistics, but the potatoes helped.
The tests didn't involved humans, but S.P.U.D.S., which stands for "Synthetic Personnel Using Dielectric Substitution," which in plain language means spuds, sacks of potatoes piled in up in plane seats. Boeing used 20,000 pounds of potatoes.
It turns out that Boeing engineers say potatoes and the human body have "similar physical interactions with electronic signal properties," and the tests wouldn't have been truly accurate unless the effect of a full plane on the WiFi was included in the experiments.
So between the new tech procedure and the selfless participation of all those potatoes, tests which used to take weeks were done in just 10 hours, and now Boeing hopes real humans will reap the benefits in the near future.

Shopping and culture in Milan…the winning mix for your stay
There are few Italians or foreigners who do not recognise Milan's charisma and image as the undisputed fashion capital, so why not indulge in a shopping spree not only in the streets of the city centre but also outside the city in an authentic fashion village, Fidenza Village.
In search of the most fashionable designer labels and the most attractive discounts... true shopeteers are very familiar with the exciting sensation of owning a garment by their favourite designer bought at a bargain price. Enterprise Hotel and Fidenza Village have set up a partnership that will make your shopping-oriented stay in Milan a fun and exciting experience.
What if you don't want to have to queue on the motorway or you didn't bring your car with you?
The Shopping Express, the luxury Fidenza shuttle, will come and pick you up from the hotel in the morning and take you back there in the evening, after your exhausting day out shopping.
Additionally, each Enterprise guest will be given a VIP Card in the Hotel, which will entitle him/her to further discounts when shopping in the 100 boutiques in the village.
But shopping is not all there is to do in Milan! At the hotel you can also purchase our very original Shopping with Da Vinci package. Available from Wednesday to Friday, the package offers the possibility of a guided sight-seeing tour of Milan, to places of interest such as the Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper and the Castello Sforzesco, followed in the afternoon by a visit to the streets of the Fidenza Village in search of the most prestigious brands of clothing and accessories.
The services offered by the Fidenza Village to its visitors include:
- free WI-FI connection

The designer labels you will find there include: Armani, Blumarine, Valentino, Versace, Missoni, Camper, D&G, Desigual... and very many other designer boutiques selling clothing, accessories and home accessories.

Center Ossipee home destroyed in fire
Updated On: Oct 06 2012 09:00:46 AM EDT
A family has lost their home after a Friday night fire in Center Ossipee. When fire crews got to the house on Knox Mountain Road, they say it was already fully engulfed in flames. Large propane tanks were also adding fuel to the fire.
Investigators don't know how the fire started. Two adults and one child lived in the home, which is a total loss.
Crews from several towns joined Center Ossipee crews to fight the fire, including Ossipee, Freedom, and Effingham.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Du Preez, Theon Montaque firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-07202012-124537 Document Title The effect of MAP on the growth and survival of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphylococcus aureus in chilled minced beef Degree MSc Department Food Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof L C Hoffman Co-Supervisor Prof E M Buys Supervisor Keywords
- Staphylococcus aureus
- MAP system
- Escherichia coli O157:H7
Date 2012-04-24 Availability unrestricted AbstractWith modern culture moving towards convenience in terms of fresh produce, especially with meat products, science needs to constantly evolve to serve these customer needs. These needs however can sometimes be implemented too hastily without the proper assessment done for factors such as food safety. One such improvement is the use of modified atmosphere packaged minced meat. This form allows the minced meat to be kept for much longer than normal without freezing the product, providing the fast pasted consumer both the convenience of having fresh, unfrozen meat as well as an added shelf life. MAP works by disrupting the atmosphere within these packages, retarding the growth of the spoilage micro-organisms, thus causing them to require a longer time span to reach spoilage numbers. The problem however arises that although most of these techniques are tried and trusted on the products' spoilage organisms, it does not take into consideration the effect MAP and the altered spoilage organism communities would have on a pathogen that might be present on the products. This study thus aimed to assess the effect of both factors on Escherichia coli O157:H7 (phase 1) and Staphylococcus aureus (phase 2) in minced meat kept at 5°C as well as trying to identify the major affecting factors. The two subject organisms were each inoculated into 2 different types of MAP packs and a non-atmosphere modified PVC overlaid minced meat sample at two differing concentrations of 105 and 102 to also assess the impact of high andlow initial pathogen presence. These packs were then analysed over a time period of 16 days to track the changing minced meat environment. APC, Pseudomonads, LAB and Enterobacteriaceae counts were all investigated along with the pathogenic counts. Apart from colony enumeration, the colour of the minced meat samples were also taken to determine the effect that these parameters have on the appearance of the product, as colour is often the first sensorial characteristic that determines the purchase of fresh meat products. pH was determined to ascertain the environmental changes occurring in the product and whether groups such as the LAB would change the environment to better suit their needs. Finally the atmospheric makeup was also measured to determine the effect of the MAP system and the change occurring in a closed system that could be attributed to the growth and respiration of the bacterial communities present. Apart from the main aim of the study, two additional studies were performed that arose during the planning and analyses of the two primary phases. Firstly the use of a quarter versus a full plate enumeration was studied to determine its accuracy as well as possibility of use in full studies to aid enumeration and decrease time and financial input. Here a direct comparison was done between the two techniques after which they were compared and assessed in their functionality for both homogenous and heterogeneous community enumeration on selective and non-selective media. The other secondary study focussed on the use of new technology for both the enumeration and tracking of genetically modified organisms in a variety of different environments. Here a bioluminescent imaging system was used on a genetically modified strain of E. coli to track its spread through minced meat, packaged either in a MAP or PVC overlaid pack, over 48 hours in an accelerated shelf life study. Enumeration of said organism was also undertaken whereby the intensity of emitted light would correspond to a defined count, enabling rapid enumeration of samples, whether overgrown or not.

A house fire handled by the Beach City Volunteer Fire Department in Texas and other nearby departments. Video from josh. No further information.
WTF was this…. I understand vollies and looked like driver only on 1st in rig… but scooter a 1 3/4 is not your weapon of choice at this job! also looks like tanker shuttle so get the Engines out of the middle of the road, move that tanker and get the drop tank down, let room for one of those engines to set up a draft from it, unload tanker water and get out of there for another load… their going to need more water real soon. NO SIGN OF URGENCY… I know its a looser but for goodness sake put a little zip in your step…. is your company ready for Statter911…..? These Companies were NOT ! Train then train some more… your and other lives depend on it… Strike Da Box! K
Wow, this looks like an aggressive group of fire fighters!!
Wow, these boys are aggressive!
I think the captain may have been the MC of the fire. Waving at everyone as he WALKED to the fire which looked to have a decent wind behind it. Don't worry we got this!! lol
4 apparatus and 3 FF's… WTF
The department paid good money for that deluge gun on top of the engine. How about using it while the other crews get their hand lines stretched?
Oh my god someone put that house out of its misery
Wow. Good points Scooter. House was a total rightt off but a little effort goes a long way.
Beach City is a small single station volunteer dept on the western portions of Chambers county. This fire is approx. 5 miles from the station. The FF with the helmet came was with Mount Belview FD 14 miles away. Very limited manpower during the day, which had the possibility of each truck having 1-2 personnel with the exception of MBFD. Unknown if any dept from Harris County (Baytown FD) was called.
The placement of the first line was pretty poor. Your priority should have exposures, and flowing water ineffectively into the front door on the A side is not covering anything. It seemed like the closest exposure was on the D side, and no attention was given to that until the second line was pulled. They are lucky the second house didn't catch.
And I know that water supply might have been a concern but you need a bigger line than a 1 3/4. Big fire needs big water! They should have pulled a 2 1/2 and they would have done some serious work on that fire.
You can't judge by a partial video. You can't see everything that was done by all. I know most of the firefighters that were there and I know they did there best they always do. And they did it With no fire hydrants.

Get a non-USPS box and call it a suite. No one cares in my opinion. Many large businesses use a PO Box as their address.
Physical Address vs. Post Office Box for Home-Based Businesses
Many small businesses are based out of the home and not everyone feels comfortable displaying their home address on business cards and websites. Does using a PO Box instead of a physical address give a business an unprofessional image?

Some time ago (maybe 5-10 years), the Post Office decided that too many scammers were using Mail Boxes Etc. (at the time) to pretend they were a large company.
I was actually standing in a MBE while a scammed person was insisting the MBE clerk give up the information on who the scammer really was. She refused, of course, because keeping customer information confidential is part of the contract.
The Post Office now has a policy that anyone using a UPS Store (or any non-Post Office mail distributior) must use "PMB" for Private Mail Box instead of "Suite."
By the way, a gazillion years ago (yes, I AM that old!), I worked at a direct mail concern and learned how to address a piece of mail:
Tamera Nelson
456 Main St
Moore, OK 73170
The Post Office reads addresses from the bottom up and, especially in this case, they surely don't care about the "PMB."
Check with your local post office to confirm. I tried the search box on usps.com and decided not to wade through their twenty thousand pages.

@Richard - I also feel that the majority of people will not care. The majority of payments that I make to creditors are sent to PO Boxes.
@Suzanne - I was unaware of the USPS 'PMB' policy. I will visit their website to see if I can find out more info.
Thanks to both of you for your input.

I've used a PO Box for my business address for most of the past 30 years with no negative impact on my business. About 80% of my business is done in other cities throughout the U.S., or in foreign countries, so a street address is of little importance to my clientele.
I've used the PO Box for two major reasons: 1.) I don't want sales and marketing people, or potential vendors, showing up at my home-based studio at all hours of the day/evening; 2.) I also don't want clients feeling as if they can just show up on my doorstep at all hours.
My sister used a non-USPS mailing address for her business mail - and a ridiculous number of people would show up at the street address expecting to meet with her without an appointment/unannounced.
In the past I've designed quite a few business cards without a mailing address at all. A phone number and email address is sufficient contact information for many people. Once a business relationship is established, a mailing address may be shared if needed - on stationery, an invoice or elsewhere.
I do think the issue of personal safety plays into the decision as well. I always recommend that individuals who work alone from home not put a home address on any marketing/promotion tools.

Tamera... I've used a P.O. Box for years because it can remain forever while my business (and home) address periodically changes.
BTW: In a few of my past businesses I have used private mail boxes PMB (ie. mailboxes etc.) and when I discontinued using them, the US Postal Service refused to accept mail forwarding. It appears they will only give you the service of mail forwarding from a USPO box or physical mail box.
People may want to consider this when they choose between USPO and PMB.
Posted by Suzanne Melton, Seattle, Washington |
Sep 18, 2009
Howard, you are absolutely right!
I've had PMBs in five locations but it's pretty simple to keep two, in my case, MBE/UPS stores for a few months. AND, if the UPS store you're moving TO is owned by the franchisee you're moving FROM, they will drive your mail from the old to the new.
OK, it's probably not a special trip but your mail does get moved.
Something else I neglected to mention: the Post Office won't accept deliveries from FedEx or UPS. Your local UPS or other private third party accepts deliveries from any delivery service.
Oh, the irony: I"m pushing a private entity and Howard is pushing a government-like entity.
Posted by Howard Howell, Seattle, Washington |
Sep 18, 2009
Suzanne... LOL with a big smile.
It is ironic isn't it. I never thought it about when I commented but it is great to have a choice isn't it?
Posted by Tamera Nelson, Moore, Oklahoma |
Sep 21, 2009
@Jeff - good suggestion to share a home address once a business relationship has been established.
@Howard - I like the idea of hassle-free mail forwarding. There are not alot of PMB centers in my area which would result in me more than likely having to go out of my way to get mail if I decided to move.
@Suzanne - I enjoy hearing different viewpoints. When it comes to shipping packages I actually prefer the private entities.
I appreciate the feedback from everyone.

I use a small company that gives me a private mail box for about @140.00 per year. I've had no negative response from my customers because of it. I believe its just better than putting my home address on everything. I meet a lot of people and you just don't know who you are meeting all of the time. Art T.

Hi Tamera, I'm definitely in the PO Box camp as well with my preference being go with the regular PO if possible.
The only negative is that I think there is a touch more credibility to having a physical address listed on your Website.
However, I'm willing to lose that in order to keep people from showing up at my home office unannounced. And there are plenty of other ways to build credibility on your site (including a phone number, email address, headshot, testimonials, etc.).
Best of luck! Stacy

I'd like to use a mailbox but it will be a hassle to drive to the closest office, so I have been using my real home address. There has been no strangers showing up so far, except that new family of raccoons.
Other things to consider: delivery or email marketing, you will need to have a real address.
Best, Jack
Posted by Kristina Davis, Richmond, Virginia |
Sep 24, 2009
Just a thought.. but there are ways around both of these. I know of a place here in Richmond called PostalPal that serves as a mailbox center just like the post office but instead of a PO Box, they give you a number so it looks like a suite number. With that you can always receive packages.
It's like the best of both worlds.. :)

Ah, protein. What to feel full with less? Get enough, but not too much! When you have the right amount of protein, you will feel full and energized, ready to tackle your day. Studies have shown that protein helps you feel more satisfied over its cousins, carbs and fats, though all three are necessary for a balanced diet.
That said, protein can be a wee bit over-rated in terms of requirements. Eating too much of this important nutrient (as with any excess calories) will lead fat storage on your lovely hips, waist and beyond. Even more, the higher fat and lower fiber intake associated with a high-protein diet can also lead to problems like heart disease and certain cancers. Ugh, no thanks!
How much of the good stuff do you need? The Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for adults depends on your activity level: Sedentary: .4g/lb of body weight per day; Strength athlete: .5-.8g/lb; Endurance athlete: .5-.6g/lb. Get out your calculator! It may be less than you thought.
What should you be eating? I subscribe to a plant-based philosophy, so for me it's vegan all the way baby. I am proud to have lots of lean muscle and low body fat. However, I admit, this lifestyle is not for everyone! The key to finding balance? Take a look at cultures throughout the world- most use meat and dairy to season their vegetable, legume and whole grain-laden plates. If you choose to eat animal-based protein, also add in a ton of plant stuff, your body will thank you.
My faves? Lentils, beans, soy and almond milk, tofu, nuts and nut butters. How does this translate into meals/snacks? Hummus with whole grain crackers, fruit smoothies with soymilk and almond butter, Spanish rice and beans, trail mix with nuts and dried fruit, lentil stew, scrambled tofu with veggies. Tell me your not salivating right now. I thought so.
Love your body by giving it just what it needs, nothing more, nothing less. Choose well and enjoy how you feel. Eat, and be full my friends. What are your favorite ways to get protein morning/noon/night?
