Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha (CEBA) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 He brought me back to the outer sanctuary gate that faces east. It was closed. | 1 Then the man brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary, the one facing east, and it was shut. |
2 The LORD said to me, This gate remains closed. It shouldn't be opened. No one should come in through it because the LORD, Israel's God, has entered through it. It will remain closed. | 2 The LORD said to me, "This gate is to remain shut. It must not be opened; no one may enter through it. It is to remain shut because the LORD, the God of Israel, has entered through it. |
3 As for the prince, he may sit in it to eat bread in the LORD's presence. He may come in and go out by way of the gate's porch. | 3 The prince himself is the only one who may sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the LORD. He is to enter by way of the portico of the gateway and go out the same way." |
4 Then he brought me by way of the North Gate to the front of the temple. I looked, and suddenly the LORD's glory filled the LORD's temple, and I fell on my face. | 4 Then the man brought me by way of the north gate to the front of the temple. I looked and saw the glory of the LORD filling the temple of the LORD, and I fell facedown. |
5 Then the LORD said to me: Human one, pay close attention! Use your eyes and ears and listen to all that I say to you concerning the regulations of the LORD's temple and all its instructions. Pay close attention to the access to the temple through all the sanctuary portals. | 5 The LORD said to me, "Son of man, look carefully, listen closely and give attention to everything I tell you concerning all the regulations regarding the temple of the LORD. Give attention to the entrance of the temple and all the exits of the sanctuary. |
6 Speak to the rebels, to the house of Israel, The LORD God proclaims: Enough of your detestable practices, house of Israel! | 6 Say to the rebellious house of Israel, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Enough of your detestable practices, O house of Israel! |
7 You made my temple unclean because you brought into my sanctuary foreigners who were physically and spiritually uncircumcised. When you offered my food of fat and blood to me, you broke my covenant with all your detestable practices. | 7 In addition to all your other detestable practices, you brought foreigners uncircumcised in heart and flesh into my sanctuary, desecrating my temple while you offered me food, fat and blood, and you broke my covenant. |
8 You didn't keep charge of my holy things. On the contrary, you appointed them to keep charge in my sanctuary for you. | 8 Instead of carrying out your duty in regard to my holy things, you put others in charge of my sanctuary. |
9 The LORD God proclaims: Foreigners who are spiritually and physically uncircumcised must not enter my sanctuary; that is, all foreigners among the Israelites. | 9 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: No foreigner uncircumcised in heart and flesh is to enter my sanctuary, not even the foreigners who live among the Israelites. |
10 But the Levites, who went far from me when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, will bear their guilt. | 10 " 'The Levites who went far from me when Israel went astray and who wandered from me after their idols must bear the consequences of their sin. |
11 They will keep charge in my sanctuary, and they will oversee the temple gates and keep charge of the temple. They will slaughter the entirely burned offerings and the sacrifices for the people, and they will stand before them to minister to them. | 11 They may serve in my sanctuary, having charge of the gates of the temple and serving in it; they may slaughter the burnt offerings and sacrifices for the people and stand before the people and serve them. |
12 Because they ministered to them before their idols, they brought about the downfall of the house of Israel. For that reason I made a solemn pledge against them—this is what the LORD God says—and they will bear their guilt. | 12 But because they served them in the presence of their idols and made the house of Israel fall into sin, therefore I have sworn with uplifted hand that they must bear the consequences of their sin, declares the Sovereign LORD. |
13 They won't approach me to officiate for me as priests or approach any of my holy things or the most holy place. Though they will bear their humiliation and the consequences of their detestable practices, | 13 They are not to come near to serve me as priests or come near any of my holy things or my most holy offerings; they must bear the shame of their detestable practices. |
14 I will appoint them to keep charge of the temple, all its work, and all that is done in it. | 14 Yet I will put them in charge of the duties of the temple and all the work that is to be done in it. |
15 As for the priests of the levitical family of Zadok who did keep charge of my sanctuary when the Israelites strayed away from me, they will draw near to me to serve me. They will stand in my presence to present fat and blood to me. This is what the LORD God says. | 15 " 'But the priests, who are Levites and descendants of Zadok and who faithfully carried out the duties of my sanctuary when the Israelites went astray from me, are to come near to minister before me; they are to stand before me to offer sacrifices of fat and blood, declares the Sovereign LORD. |
16 They will come into my sanctuary, and they will approach my table to minister to me. They will keep my charge. | 16 They alone are to enter my sanctuary; they alone are to come near my table to minister before me and perform my service. |
17 When they come through the gates to the inner courtyard, they will wear linen garments. They won't wear any wool when they minister at the gates of the inner courtyard or in the temple. | 17 " 'When they enter the gates of the inner court, they are to wear linen clothes; they must not wear any woolen garment while ministering at the gates of the inner court or inside the temple. |
18 They will have linen turbans on their heads and linen undergarments around their waists. They won't wear anything that makes them sweat. | 18 They are to wear linen turbans on their heads and linen undergarments around their waists. They must not wear anything that makes them perspire. |
19 When they go out to the outer courtyard to the people, they will remove the garments in which they were ministering. They will lay them aside in the holy chambers and wear other clothing. They must not transfer holiness to the people through their clothing. | 19 When they go out into the outer court where the people are, they are to take off the clothes they have been ministering in and are to leave them in the sacred rooms, and put on other clothes, so that they do not consecrate the people by means of their garments. |
20 They must neither shave their heads nor let their hair grow long, but they will trim the hair on their heads. | 20 " 'They must not shave their heads or let their hair grow long, but they are to keep the hair of their heads trimmed. |
21 None of the priests should drink wine when they come into the inner courtyard. | 21 No priest is to drink wine when he enters the inner court. |
22 They must not marry widows or divorced women, but only Israelite virgins. Priests may, however, marry the widows of other priests. | 22 They must not marry widows or divorced women; they may marry only virgins of Israelite descent or widows of priests. |
23 They must teach my people the difference between the holy and the ordinary, and show them the difference between clean and unclean. | 23 They are to teach my people the difference between the holy and the common and show them how to distinguish between the unclean and the clean. |
24 They must execute judgments according to my case laws in cases of civil conflict. They must observe my instructions and my regulations regarding all my festivals. They must keep my sabbaths holy. | 24 " 'In any dispute, the priests are to serve as judges and decide it according to my ordinances. They are to keep my laws and my decrees for all my appointed feasts, and they are to keep my Sabbaths holy. |
25 In order to avoid uncleanness, they must not approach the dead. They may, however, become unclean for their father or mother, son or daughter, brother or unmarried sister. | 25 " 'A priest must not defile himself by going near a dead person; however, if the dead person was his father or mother, son or daughter, brother or unmarried sister, then he may defile himself. |
26 Once the priest is clean again, he must count off seven days. | 26 After he is cleansed, he must wait seven days. |
27 On the day that he comes into the holy place, the inner courtyard, to minister in the holy place, he will present his purification offering. This is what the LORD God says. | 27 On the day he goes into the inner court of the sanctuary to minister in the sanctuary, he is to offer a sin offering for himself, declares the Sovereign LORD. |
28 As for their inheritance, I am their inheritance. They won't be given family property in Israel; I am their family property. | 28 " 'I am to be the only inheritance the priests have. You are to give them no possession in Israel; I will be their possession. |
29 They will eat the grain offerings, the purification offerings, and the compensation offerings. Every dedicated thing in Israel belongs to them. | 29 They will eat the grain offerings, the sin offerings and the guilt offerings; and everything in Israel devoted to the LORD will belong to them. |
30 The best of the early produce of every kind, and every contribution, all of them, belong to the priests. You will give the best of your bread dough to the priest so that a blessing may come to rest on your household. | 30 The best of all the firstfruits and of all your special gifts will belong to the priests. You are to give them the first portion of your ground meal so that a blessing may rest on your household. |
31 The priests must not eat any bird or animal that dies naturally or is torn apart by prey. | 31 The priests must not eat anything, bird or animal, found dead or torn by wild animals. |

Coon CD et al. – The completeness of response survey (CORS) is capable of demonstrating advantages of more comprehensive migraine therapies over traditional therapies, which are primarily focused on the resolution of headache pain, by addressing the frequency and speed with which the most common migraine symptoms are resolved and patients' return to normal functioning. This research shows evidence for the value and utility for the CORS static and comparative items and components, and further evaluation is underway.
Methods- Data from an 8–site study comparing 147 patients' recent experiences with their current triptan therapy and 2 months of study treatment with a single–tablet formulation of sumatriptan/naproxen sodium were used to conduct a preliminary psychometric evaluation of the CORS.
- The study included both modules of the CORS, the Headache Impact Test, the revised Patient Perception of Migraine Questionnaire, and a migraine diary.
- The CORS response categories in both the static and comparative modules demonstrated limited floor or ceiling effects and few missing values (<3%). X
- Inter–item correlations, principal components analysis (component loading range: 0.62 to 0.95), and high estimates of internal consistency (alpha range: 0.88 to 0.94) for each composite score supported the structure and proposed scoring algorithm for the static module.
- The pattern of correlations between the CORS static and comparative items and composites with the revised Patient Perception of Migraine Questionnaire items and subscales, as well as the relationships between responses to selected static CORS items and the migraine diary, supported the construct validity of the CORS.

Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel
has repeatedly emphasized his warm, bipartisan relationship with Gov. Rick
Snyder, it appears the Democratic executive is mulling the idea of trying to
oust the Republican governor in 2014.
Hackel first considered a
future gubernatorial run in 2008 but since his 2010 election as county executive, many
political observers assumed he would serve as executive (a job he could
probably keep for life) for a while before turning his sights to Lansing.
But CBS Detroit radio (WWJ-AM 950)
recently reported that Hackel has not ruled out a '14 run – if he can attract enough
support. The former sheriff also suggests that, if he does form a candidacy, it
would be because the public is calling for him to run.
"If there were people from the business sector
or others that said, 'You know what, we think you can make a go of this, we'd
really like to help make this happen,' then I might be intrigued or interested
in seeing what can we build, what can we do," Hackel told WWJ's Roberta Jasina.
He added: "I hear about it, people
say, 'You have a good possibility of running for governor some day.' I
hear it."
Hackel went on to say that his
ability to win a Democratic primary would be hampered by his politically
moderate, bipartisan approach. Party apparatchiks may not gravitate toward
someone who is not "drinking the Kool-Aid."

The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I had the chance to tutor a mom for her GED who had lived at the house several years ago. She had been a new immigrant to this country and was a young mom. I got to see her living independently and providing for herself and her daughter.
More feedback
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the staff meet the mothers where they are at, and teach them in ways that are best for the mom's needs and the needs of her child. I really love that the organization gives glory to God, and relies on him to provide for them.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Staff and volunteer vary greatly in age and experience, but share one common purpose- showing love to the moms and their babies, and helping the moms grow as independent women.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Start other similar houses in other poor urban areas of Massachusetts, perhaps in a town near Lawrence or Worcester. They could employ staff for such houses and take in more moms and their families.
How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

(HealthDay News) -- Clearing the snow is a common winter chore, but don't forget that it's physically challenging. So make sure you're up to the task.
The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons offers these snow-clearing tips:
Talk to your doctor before shoveling or blowing snow, as it may be taxing on the heart.
Dress for the job in lightweight, water-resistant layers, in addition to a hat and gloves, thick socks and shoes with soles that won't slip.
Shovel early before snow gets heavy and packed.
Avoid icy spots and areas with uneven footing.
Make sure a hat or scarf doesn't obstruct your vision.

Hi All,
So I've had a lot of luck rooting my muliflora. Both branches have roots on them. My question is, how long should I let the roots get? I decided to root them in water and how long should I wait before I put them in soil? Also, the one branch is getting ready to bloom .. should I wait until after it blooms or should I go ahead and put it in dirt now? I know I've read not to mess with them when they're blooming. The smaller branch's roots are about an inch long with one long one that's about 3". The bigger one, which is the one that is going to bloom, the roots are about 4" - 5" long. |

Water roots and air roots are comprised of different tissues. Often, water roots will break when potted in soil, which means that cuttings will be rooting twice. For this reason, I root in soil directly...or else pot rooted cuttings in soil as soon as I see evidence of root primordia on the stems. In other words, I'd pot them now. The sooner the better. |
I agree with Josh, rooting directly in a pot with your favorite growing mix is often the best method. Having said that we are talking about Hoya multiflora or javanica and I was unable to root cuttings of my plant easily until someone here mentioned water rooting it. I have some cuttings of my plant at about the same stage as you describe, roots about 4-5" long. I am planning on potting those cuttings up this week. The roots look much sturdier than the were even a week or two ago so I am hoping that they make the transition smoothly. Keeping the newly potted cuttings warm and moist couldn't hurt either until they settle in. Mike |

Recently, Ron and Debbie Moore received the History in Media Award for their preservation and promotion of local history. The East Tennessee Historical Society's annual Awards of Excellence were presented at the organization's annual meeting on May 6 at the East Tennessee History Center.
Since 1982, the Society has been recognizing individuals and organizations each year that have made significant contributions to the preservation, promotion, programming and interpretation of the region's history. The two Bradley County initiatives were among the 21 honored at the event.
The Moores co-host a local history show, Old Town Cleveland, on WOOP 99.9 FM on Saturday mornings. With guests and call-ins, the show explores a wide variety of topics, from national significance to family history. Live streaming and social media have increased the show's reach and impact.
The two also received the Award of Distinction for their documentary "It's a Track Life: Memories of Dirt Track Racing from Dawnsonville to Gatlinburg." The 80-minute documentary captures the memories of drivers, moonshiner and fans from the "glory years" of the sport through interviews, old home movies, vintage photographs and original music.
ETHS Executive Director Cherel Henderson said, "Ron and Debbie Moore are a wonderful example of public history at its finest."
The Moores have co-hosted Old Town Cleveland radio show for the past three years. He works in the Families First program and was the editor of the documentary on Caney Creek Village, a family project with their son, Will Moore.
Amateur historian and Bradley County native Debbie Moore has been an elementary teacher in the Bradley County School System for 34 years. She is an avid researcher of local history and has written several family history books, including the Stephenson, Dunn, Epperson and Frazier families.
Another of Moore's projects, "Confederate Voices," a 248-page book about Confederate soldiers and families from the region, was released in September last year.
"Confederate Voices" is a selection of obituaries, interviews, family stories, diaries, pension applications and newspaper articles. Confederate soldiers and families from Polk, Bradley, McMinn and Rhea counties in Tennessee and Whitfield and Murray counties in Georgia are included in the book. An extensive index has been included for researchers. The book contains more than 200 photographs, including an 1866 map showing the history of the Rebellion in Bradley County.
Moore said, "The book gives a glimpse into the lives of the soldiers and their families in lower East Tennessee and North Georgia. The women have remarkable stories of survival since this area was occupied by one side or the other throughout the entire conflict. This is not a book about famous people, but very ordinary people during very difficult times."
The book also highlights Confederate cemeteries in Bradley and Hamilton counties. The story of the Rhea County Spartans, an "All-girl troop" is in the book, also, and includes photographs of two of the girls. The Rhea County Spartans — a cavalry company of girls — was organized in the summer of 1862. There were three companies stationed along the foot of Walden's Ridge from Sale Creek to Emory Gap.
The Cleveland Daily Banner is referenced on six pages of "Confederate Voices" — Page 37: advertisement for James M. Charles' "Halfway House," a tavern-hotel between Ducktown and Cleveland; Page 45: the unveiling of the Confederate Monument in Cleveland; the life and death of F.M. Gibson of Cleveland, one of the youngest Confederates in the nation during the war and who died at age 91; Page 89: the story of Jane Montgomery Hardwick who lived on Inman Street between 1860 and 1870; Page 97: A dinner given by Dr. and Mrs. T.G. Jordan in October, 1911, in honor of their granddaughter, Blanche Jordan Greene, whose mother was a honorary member of the John D. Traynor camp; and Page 207: Historian Roy Lillard wrote about Dr. George R Stuart (Aug. 11, 1985) who married the daughter of the Rev. Dr. David Sullins who fought under Gen. Zollicoffer — Zollie Sullins, who was born on Christmas Day. Dr. Sullins was the first president of Centenary College.
The Moore's 21-year-old son, Will Moore of Ooltewah, joined with his parents to do the historical documentary about Caney Creek Village that was located near the Ocoee No. 2 Powerhouse in Polk County. A student at Chattanooga State Technical Community College, he appeared as an extra in the hit TV series "Nashville." He is a professional photographer and DJ and is presently working at McKee Foods in Collegedale. He is married to the former Alliea Carver of Ooltewah. He served as producer of the documentary and was the videographer.
Caney Creek Village housed the workers from the Ocoee No. 2 project from 1912-43. It was closed when TVA took over in the 1940s. Former residents Marilyn Lowe Kirkland, Geraldine Lowe King, John "Doc" German, Troye Moore Linginfelter, Anna Ruth Lillard Green and the late Margaret Poe Trotter shared their memories of living at Caney Creek. The subtitle "Going Home" came from two of the residents returning to the ruins of the village.
The documentary has original music by John Cook and was edited by Ron Moore. Debbie narrated and wrote the story. Many historical photographs are included. The documentary runs 45 minutes and was released in a premiere showing at Walker Valley High School. The 47-minute documentary took 18 months (longer than it took to build the Ocoee Dam No. 1) to film and edit the footage.
Moore, as president of the Bradley County Genealogical Society was involved in the Blythe Ferry Cherokee Removal Park project. She, along with Shirley Lawrence, worked to document the Bell route, who separated from the Cherokee groups from Charleston and went through Walker Valley. Bradley County's oldest history, she has discovered, began in Charleston. Proof of the route includes an 1830s map of the road through Walker Valley of the Cherokee Removal, the 1820s Bob Irvin House with an existing road documented.
Moore said it is an exciting time to be a historian in Bradley County. In the last few years, she has done more than a dozen presentations on cemeteries and families in the county.
"People are interested," she said, and she wants to make sure family graves are marked. She said people need to write the stories of their families and preserve history. "An old person dying is like a library burning," she quoted.

Please note if you are considering building a large green wall with Woolly Pockets it is your responsibility to assess whether it is necessary to obtain engineering checks, planning permits and/or building permits. |
. What is a Wally Pocket made from? 2. The benefits of breathability and your living walls 3. What kind of plants should I grow in my living wall Pocket? 4. What is the best soil to use in my living wall Pocket? 5. What is the best kind of water to use in my living wall? 6. How much water should I use in my living wall? 7. Is there are particular technique to watering a living wall? 8. Installing a living wall - I am a DIY living wall person 9. Living Walls. Help! I am not a DIY living wall person 1. What is a Wally Pocket made from? 2. The benefits of breathability and living walls There are two primary benefits to breathable pockets in a living wall. Firstly, it allows the soil of the living wall to aerate naturally, which reduces the need to drain the living wall and also helps to conserve the living wall's water. Second, when the roots sense air they do something called air pruning. This is the natural process of stopping their own root growth when they sense they've reached the limits of their space. This keeps the living wall's roots healthy and stops the plants from becoming root-bound by growing in continuing circles as they do in non-breathable containers such as clay pots. 3. What kind of plants should I grow in my living wall Pockets? 4. What is the best soil to use in my living wall? .40 cubic feet per individual living wall pocket (approx. 11 litres or .011 cubic metres) 5. What is the best kind of water to use in my living wall? The manufacturer's recommend the use of filtered water for watering your Woolly Wally living wall system in order to maintain the natural PH balance of the soil. If you can only use unfiltered water on your living walls, you'll want to take your Woolly Pocket outside once a year to flush it. This means thoroughly soaking your living wall Pockets until water runs out the sides. Flushing your living wall Pockets won't harm your Pocket or your living wall plants, in fact it will help them. Make sure you let them dry in the sun before bringing it inside to prevent the damp living wall Woolly Pockets from damaging your floors or furniture. When you bring it back inside, don't forget to replace the living wall's nutrients lost with fertiliser. 6. How much water should I use in my living wall? The manufacturers recommend watering 3 cups per individual pocket (or about 5% water to soil volume) and adjusting amounts based on the particular needs of your plants and living wall environment. If the Woolly Pockets living wall moisten on the outside after watering, try watering half as much the next time. If moisture persists in the living wall, be sure the soil you're using is a high-quality potting soil that stays loose and holds water in your living wall. You will want to monitor the amount of water carefully to make sure each living wall pocket is getting enough water to be happy, but not so much that the living wall pockets sweat. Check the back of the living wall pockets for moisture once a month and adjusting the amount of water accordingly. Just to be safe, check your living wall Pockets after watering. If the living wall Pocket's are wet, you're probably over watering your living wall. But don't worry, just pat the living wall Pocket dry with a towel and use less water in your living wall next time. The wall is protected thanks to the impermeable moisture barrier in each Woolly Wally Pocket living wall. 7. Is there a particular technique to watering a living wall Woolly Pockets? Yes, water the soil closest to the wall to prevent water from running out the front of the living wall. Think of the back of the living wall Pocket as the watering side and the front as the breathing side of the living wall. Drip Irrigation systems and living wall Woolly Pockets The manufacturers strongly recommend installing filtered drip irrigation for your Woolly Pocket living wall's system. You'll want to run the irrigation line along the inside of the living wall pockets towards the back, right above the root ball of the living wall's plants. You'll need an adjustable drip system so you can customize the amount of water to the needs of each plant in your living wall. Plan to install two drip heads per living wall Pocket. Remember: Think of the back of the living wall Pocket as the watering side and the front of the living wall Pocket as the breathing side. 8. DIY living wall installation This is the written explanation of the Instructional living wall video You'll need: · A vertical surface to hang your living walls · Woolly Pockets and a fixing per hole. The living wall fixing holes are located every 55.9cm (or 22 ") horizontally (fixing to fixing). And every 33cm (13 inches) up and down (fixing to fixing) · An electric drill, screwdriver, tape measure, level · Masking tape and a pen · Quality soil · Garden shovel or pail · Plants · A living wall assistant and about two hours Spacings 55.9cm horizontal (hole to hole) and 33 cm up and down (hole to hole) a. Using your level and measuring tape, place one piece of tape vertically down the centre of the wall where you want to hang your living wall Pockets. b. Using your level and measuring tape, place a piece of tape horizontally along the wall where you'll be drilling the holes to hang the living wall Woolly grommets. When hanging multiple rows, space them 33cm (or 13") centre to centre vertically so that the living wall Pockets overlap a little to hide the wall behind them. c. Using your measuring tape, mark the blue tape where the living wall holes should be drilled and pre-drill each hole. d. Remove the tape and install the living wall wall anchors into the pre-drilled holes. e. Hang your living wall Woolly Pockets using the screws and washers supplied. When you hang multiple living wall Pockets, save the anchors that will hang two living wall Pockets for last so you can double them up. f. Fill each living wall Pocket halfway with soil. Add your plants and top each Wally Pocket off with more soil, as necessary. 9. Help? Living walls? I am most definitely not a DIY living wall person! While the Woolly Pockets are an easy to install living wall system not everyone has the time or desire to undergo Do It Yourself living wall activities. Garden Beet can provide an installation service for your Woolly Pocket system. Please make contact for a living wall quote on 020 3397 2377 or firstname.lastname@example.com Vertical gardening is enjoyable. Simply follow the living wall instructions and you will be able to enjoy living walls either inside or out. Vertical gardens not only allow urban dwellers to grow gardens in limited spaces but can also absorb noise and help assist with a building's thermal properties. Living walls can look spectacular no matter how small or large. Like all plants remember to water and feed your living wall and it should bring you endless joy. |

In my opinion the IASB has a very irresponsible attitude to the failure of IAS 29
January 10, 2013 in Uncategorized
In my opinion the IASB has a very irresponsible attitude to the failure of IAS 29
In my opinion the IASB is failing its responsibility to authorise International Financial Reporting Standards that comply with its own stated objective of general purpose financial reporting:
The provision of decision-useful financial information about the reporting entity to capital providers and other users.
After I presented an example (available here) to the IASB that in my opinion clearly illustrates the fact that financial reports prepared under the failed IAS 29 during hyperinflation are (1) not timely, (2) cannot be compared to prior year financial statements, (3) are not understandable and (4) always provide a different accounting result than under Capital Maintenance in Units of Constant Purchasing Power, Michael Stewart, the Director of Implementation Activities at the IASB, very firmly indicated that the IASB is satisfied with the implementation of the – in my opinion – failed IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies which had no positive effect during 8 years of implementation during hyperinflation in Zimbabwe.
When I asked him in a teleconference on 8 January 2013 what the IASB´s response is to the fact that the implementation of the – in my opinion – failed IAS 29 had – in my opinion – no positive effect during 8 years of implementation during hyperinflation in Zimbabwe, he indicated very firmly that financial reporting (accounting) has no effect on the economy – an indication that is – in my opinion – clearly totally wrong. It is very strange and very worrying – in my opinion – that a senior director at the IASB makes such an indication. According to him it is what users do with the information in financial reports that affects the economy, not the actual measurement activities happening during financial reporting.
When I pointed out to him that the traditional Historical Cost Accounting model employs various measurement bases, including the measurement of, for example, salaries, wages and rentals on an annual basis in units of constant purchasing power, that this is generally done by accountants worldwide for many decades now and that this certainly affects the economy, my statement was simply ignored by Michael Stewart, representing the IASB during the teleconference. He did not specifically indicate whether or not he understood what I stated. I assumed he understood what I stated.
In my opinion the IASB finds it difficult to understand the principles, workings, implementation and effect of IFRS-authorised Capital Maintenance in Units of Constant Purchasing Power in terms of a URV-based daily index – authorised in IFRS since 1989. In my opinion the IASB has difficulty in understanding IFRS-authorised CMUCPP as this was – in my opinion – very evident during my presentation of a detailed example to the IASB. The staff member working with the IASB´s original very simple example, e-mailed me that he could not balance his simple balance sheet "due to lack of my understanding of the CMUCPP model". I previously answered all his questions regarding the balancing of his low inflation balance sheet. In my opinion, he did not learn even the most basic principles of IFRS-authorised CMUCPP – in my opinion – proven by the fact that he could not even balance his own simple 10 line balance sheet (shown here) implementing IFRS-authorised CMUCPP with his chosen 100% inflation from one year to the next. He sent me his unbalanced balance sheet. I sent him my detailed balanced example with 231 209 127.83 percent actual annual Zimbabwe hyperinflation from annual inflation data supplied by Prof. Steve Hanke in his article On Measuring Zimbabwe´s Hyperinflation.
In my opinion, I should have realized the difficulty for IASB staff members to understand the principles of CMUCPP as authorised in IFRS when I received the first example balance sheet from the IASB staff member stating that the example compares "both cases": IAS 29 and CMUCPP. There was only an IAS 29 balance sheet in the example – as can be seen in the IASB example. There was no IFRS-authorised CMUCPP balance sheet. That was the IASB example of "both cases". Here is the original example comparing "both cases" I received from the IASB. There is only an IAS 29 balance sheet in the example. Being very pleased and honoured to work with the IASB on the issue, I said nothing at the time.
Michael Stewart also simply indicated that I better understand this model. In my opinion, that was his way of dismissing the problem of them – in my opinion – not being able to understand IFRS-authorised CMUCPP and – in my opinion – not being responsible enough to learn the principles involved. The IASB staff members involved in this issue – in my opinion – were unable to learn the principles of IFRS-authorised CMUCPP and the effect on the economy of implementing those principles. They could not balance their own simple 10 line balance sheet implementing the basic principles of IFRS-authorised CMUCPP and their chosen 100% annual inflation.
In my opinion, this is a very worrying state of affairs when we take into that countries like Belarus, Venezuela and Iran are currently in hyperinflation and could stabilise their economies with the implementation of CMUCPP in terms of a URV-based Daily Index. Belarus and Venezuela now also implement IAS 29 for a number of years with no positive effect in their economies.
The implementation of Capital Maintenance in Units of Constant Purchasing in terms of a URV-based Daily Index would automatically maintain the constant purchasing power of capital (equity) constant for an indefinite period of time in all entities that at least break even in real value – all else being equal – at all levels of inflation and deflation, including during hyperinflation.
Implementing IFRS-authorised CMUCPP would stabilise the constant real value non-monetary economy in a hyperinflationary economy just as it would in all other economies operating at all other levels of inflation and deflation.
Daily inflation-indexing of the entire money supply would eliminate the cost of inflation and the cost of hyperinflation, not actual low inflation and actual hyperinflation, from the economy.
In my opinion, it appears that IASB staff members find difficulty in learning about the advantages of IFRS-authorised CMUCPP and – in my opinion – refuse to acknowledge or – in my opinion – even discuss the specific advantages and differences when they are presented to them in a detailed example. In my opinion, the IASB staff members simply ignore the advantages of CMUCPP just as the IASB – in my opinion – simply ignores the well proven fact that the failed IAS 29 had no positive effect during its implementation in Zimbabwe´s hyperinflationary economy and that it has no positive effect where it is currently implemented in Belarus and Venezuela.
In my opinion, this is a very irresponsible attitude from the IASB taking into account, in particular, the hardships that are currently being endured by the populations in hyperinflationary countries and that it can be avoided by the implementation of Capital Maintenance in Units of Constant Purchasing Power as authorised in IFRS in 1989. The term IASB is used in this blogpost as a general term for generally everyone involved in international standard setting activities at the "IASB". I do know and acknowledge that only actual IFRS authorised by the actual International Accounting Standards Board are actual pronouncements of the actual Board.
The opinions stated in this blogpost and all blogposts on this blog are my private opinions. Blogs are generally regarded as expressions of private opinions.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Remy!
Facts about Remy
- Breed: Hemingway/Polydactyl
- Color: Black (Mostly)
- Age: Young
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Remy's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
He is one of the sweetest kittens I've ever known! Approx. 7 months this poor boy was found in a tree 4 stories up. He was a very popular boy and one that worried a lot of people. Sadly this poor boy was scared by a neighbor's PitBull and it chased him up that darn tree.
What was worse, the owners never came out 1 time in 5 days to help him or us/the neighbors to get him down. Lots of sleepless nights.
Remy came down and fell into the arms of us rescuers. He's never wanted to be anywhere else but with anyone who will give him love and attention. He is the nicest, most love-able boy ever. He's even great with our gentle dog.
He has the most adorable extra toes on 3 paws, one does not have them. It's no wonder he was such an expert tree climber when he accidentally (?) got out of that home.
Remy is looking for a safe home, one with tons of love and attention and hopefully one with another pet he can love too.
Remy is up to date on shots, FIV/FELV neg, fixed and dewormed.
He is a very special boy. To adopt, please call 908 578 4354 or email - email@example.com for an application.
Other Pets at S.A.R.A. Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Remy, a Berkeley Hts Hemingway/Polydactyl cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Hemingway/Polydactyl for sale in Berkeley Hts, or seeking a Hemingway/Polydactyl cat from a breeder in Berkeley Hts.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Berkeley Hts already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Berkeley Hts breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Hemingway/Polydactyl breeders who help with Hemingway/Polydactyl rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Berkeley Hts paves the way for another one to be saved.

Two local libraries are seeking to renew parcel taxes in the June 3 election, each saying the revenue helps keep doors open.
Voters approved $49 parcel taxes in 2010 for both the Marin County Free Library and the San Anselmo Library, with both taxes set to expire in 2015. If approved, the renewals would begin after the current tax terms end — and would include a few tweaks.
Both measures require a two-thirds approval to pass. Seniors would be eligible for exemptions in both cases.
Scott Bower, the county library's deputy director, said the proposed renewal for the library system, which includes 10 branches and serves the unincorporated areas of Marin as well as Novato, Fairfax and Corte Madera — is similar to the original one.
The renewed tax would last nine years, and would include an escalator of up to 3 percent, to account for inflation, and budget lines to specify how the parcel tax funds will be used.
"When we got the original money, we decided to just drop it into the general budget," Bower said. "That made it much harder to know specifically what that portion of the total budget was going toward."
The county library has a $16 million budget for its eight locations. Staff salaries account for about 70 percent of the costs, Bower said.
Half of the budget is funded through county property taxes. Officials said the parcel tax brings in about $2.5 million, a number likely to inch up every year with the annual adjustment.
"If we didn't have that in our budget, we would have to look at laying off staff, and if we had to lay off staff, that affects programs and hours," Bower said. "If people think the library is doing a good job, and if people want to see us keep doing a good job, it would be very helpful if the measure passed."
Library officials said the tax also helps fund various programs for the community, maintain books and digital collections, and it will help fund updates to library facilities, including improvements in Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility.
Last year, the county library system had nearly 1.2 million visitors, who checked out more than 1.7 million books, according to the library's website.
The San Anselmo library tax renewal would bump up to $54, with annual escalators of up to 3 percent.
The tax revenue "came at a time when we were desperate," Librarian Linda Kenton said. "The budget had been dramatically cut, hours were reduced, and the children's librarian was laid off."
With an annual budget of about $500,000, the roughly $220,000 brought in by the tax has been crucial to reviving and maintaining those services lost a few years ago, Kenton said.
"It makes all the difference for us," Kenton said. "If this weren't to pass, we would be back where we were in 2010, which was dire straits."
Kenton said the library had 112,000 visitors and 160,000 items checked out last year, both increases over the previous year's numbers.
"Once we increased our hours and added programs, it's clear that more people use us," Kenton said.

A film about the people of Saigon told through the experiences of 3 young American journalists who, in 1970, explored the consequences of war and of the American presence in Vietnam. It is not a film about the Vietnam War, but about the people who lived on the fringe of battle. The views of the city are arresting, but away from the shrines and the open-air markets lies another city, swollen with refugees and war orphans, where every inch of habitable space is coveted.

Hammer of Grammar hits the comic scene
The strip centers around a Melee Hunter named Gweryc (yes, that Gweryc) and a Human Priest named Auden (who is the author's character, I believe), but it's best when, unlike Flintlocke (which has garnered the most comparisons to so far), it avoids the adventures and just sticks to witty insight about this crazy game we play.
It's a great start for a cool comic, and hopefully we'll see a lot more from Hammer of Grammar.

Honduras' interim government has rejected crisis mediation by a delegation from the organization of American states, saying OAS leader Jose Miguel Insulza is neither objective nor impartial.
The crisis that began when President Manuel Zelaya was forced into exile six weeks ago continues to worsen. Zelaya's followers have blocked main highways and border crossings. Teachers, weathermen and hospital workers have gone on strike.
Zelaya himself continues to visit Latin leaders, seeking help to regain his own presidency. The international community has broadly condemned Zelaya's removal from office, but interim president Roberto Micheletti says Zelaya's removal was legal.
In an interview with a conservative website, Micheletti appealed to the American people to check the facts themselves.
"Make your government send a commission of the senators of the congressmen, to find out [what really] happened in our country," he said. "We are a humble people. We are a people who try to do our best."
"We have honor, we have pride," Micheletti continued. "It's what we want people around the world to find out."
The interim government of Honduras plans to hold presidential elections in November, and hand over power to the newly elected leader in Jan. 2010.
Some countries have already warned they will not recognize the results of the election unless Zelaya is first returned to power.

Opps. I have a quick update for all of you. I just noticed that on Details screen the bot number is off by 1. I posted an update to the MIBT on my site. Now if you already downloaded it and have it runnin you don't need to download the version that comes with Dialog Director. Also the bug is purely cosmetic and does not affect the the final file when you actually quit. So there is no real need to download if you don't want to
It's jsut nice to have the numbers on the editors screen match each other and match those that are in the file. Also I glad you all seem to be so excited. It definetly makes it worth it. I hope this thread doesn't get lost before all the Mac folks get a chance to get a hold of it. Chronic, No worries. I still have you down as a tester for the next release. Though I'm sure that will be a little while. I know how busy people get. I just wanted to get it out before the end of the weekend so that I could reach the max number of folks. Figuring most peole are like me and really only get a chance to post and read on the weekends. JaF0, I'm sure the community could sucker some linux guy to thinking it's easy and they they could do it, real quick. There has to be at least one that is a naive as I was. Now unless some one has any real problems with the app I'm under strict orders not to touch the code for the next week. Though I'm thinking I may be able to develop some of the stuff with out actually going into the MIBT code and then just graft it on. Technically that would be allowed. Right, Right. |

This is a happy day, erehwo|\| had something riding on this thing since he ended up being my beta tester and justed read it wrong. Hell I did the first time, but it just didin't make any sense. Why would some complain. So I reread and saw the light. Anyways, I think it's just a missunderstanding, I'm pretty sure that no one meant to get angry.
Harpoon thank you for initially bumping it up to the top. Funny part was I must of posted it right before a bunch of post on other threads came in. Because all of his took place in less than an hour after I created the thread. And erehwo|\| thanks for looking out for us Mac folks. Though I think you may have jumped the gun a bit. Now everyone take a deep breath and and kill some smart bots. |

Thanks Mac_Fodder
Thanks alot for this excellent utility. I'm sorry I could never get around to fully beta testing it though. It does work, rest assured
I'll try to help as much as I can next version. I am working now, so like you I only have free time generally on weekends. erehwo|\|, thanks for pointing me too this as well!
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat. |

DiDi Init error
Usually it means you didn't get Dialog Director installed correctly. Just follow the Dialog Director installation instructions again. You don't need to reboot after you put the the Dialog Director Scripting Addition in the Scripting Addition Folder.Though it I would suggest you do just to make sure everything is Kosher.
You may also want to try rebuilding your Desktop to make sure that the Mac is keeping proper track of the file you have installed and where they are. I'll try to generate the error here but I'm pretty sure that what it means. I also trapped it so I'm not sure why you would get it as opposed to my error which is a lot more discriptive. It could be that AppleScript is a little messed up. Some times when I was testing it would decied that it could not find anything in the file that was being edited. Though a reboot would solve it just fine. Good luck and let me know if that doesn't fix it. Last edited by Mac_Fodder; 21st Jul 2001 at 04:09 PM. |

Sorry guys, I did jump the gun a little, but I just get pissed when 13 year old brats (not necessarily you Harpoon) that think they know everything (I'm not saying I do) and dis macs because it is "cool" to do. Most of them don't know what the hell they are talking about and/or have never used one. I will again use my favorite adage about pc vs. mac: When someone buys a BMW, you don't tell them..."You shoulda gotten yerself a Ford, they are cheaper and have more horsepower." Sorry, I am a little pissed right now. I do need to kill some smart bots.
Oh, Ace are you sure that you put the DD into the closed System Folder?

Yeah, Mac rulez ;-)
I'm really glad UT has been optimized for Glide... at least my old Voodoo 3 is still worth something. A good thing I upgraded the processor from G3/233 to G3/350, and 192MB of RAM help too.

As I said earlier, I did install it correctly. It seems that restarting solved the problem. Can't wait to try it in-game! Thx Mac Fodder! Kick ass! (again)

Glad it's working
I'm glad you got it working. I figured that it was just a reboot, though there is also a key that when you hit it and drop stuff on the closed sys folder it wont auto route the files. Though I can't remember what it is off the top of my head. It may also be some extra utility that I have installed, it just aslway seems to do it when I really don't want it to. But i'm glad it was just a reboot. AppleScript seems to have problems sometimes with memory corruption. The weired part is that it doesn't cause a full system crash like in most other programs and extensions, it just does stuff like not loading Scripting Additions and other weired stuff. I've noticed that it's especially a problem when you load up your system memory to it's limits and then free it up again. Like turning UT on and off again. One time while I was testing, appleScript decided that is was going to read the file but not actually parse it. So it loaded up the app and there were not bots. I was working with the part that loads the bots and I was sure that I had broken it in some way. I got so disgusted with it I killed power to my machine. When I rebooted it worked fine. I haven't had any errors since then but I guess when in doubt reboot. One other thing. Just like DLL, and JaFO's bot tweakers, you can't edit bots while UT is running and expect the changes to take effect. UT seems to only parse those files when it loads them up at launch. I'll have to test it when I get a chance. |

Get Fit This Summer!
I've always thought that January was a frustrating time to embark on resolutions. Yes, it's the new year but it's also the dead of winter when you're often making your way through cold, grey, dreary days. Talk about unfavorable conditions for staying motivated! Summer's a great time to make one or two resolutions, particularly health and fitness ones since the days are longer and the weather's warmer so you practically have no excuse not to get outside and move!
I'm pretty good about exercising, but I have to admit that lately I haven't been getting as much as I should. So I'm going to make the healthywomen.org pledge to get moving, get active and improve my health this summer. Why don't you join me?

Pricing, Availability and Final Thoughts
Coming it at $189.99 at the time of writing, the MSI Z87-GD65 really comes in at a very strong price point and under the important $200 tag. Not only is the price tag really impressive, but what you get for the price tag is what makes the board extremely appealing. Firstly, starting off with the cosmetics, the new black and red scheme seen on the Gaming series looks great. It's a color combination that has always worked and we see more and more companies jumping on it.
Feature wise, the board is also strong. We've got normal MSI features like Military Class 4, OC Genie 4 and Click BIOS 4, but the features that we really like are the Killer Networking, strong audio solution and inclusion of SATA III mSATA. Again considering the price point, these are some really nice additions to have with this board.
Out of the box, the performance of the board is strong, with it coming in ahead of a couple of other boards that were included in our graphs, and overclocking lines up with the best. While we're able to get into Windows at 5GHz like so many other motherboards, the maximum stable clock for our particular 4770K CPU on our Corsair H100 cooling solution continues to be 4.9GHz, no matter the motherboard being used.
I think what is more impressive is that under load we see the CPU reach just 87c. While this of course seems extremely high, and it is high in most regards, we see so many other motherboards skyrocket to 97c - 99c. We're definitely not going to complain about a temperature that sits 10c - 12c lower than that, and a relatively long way from throttling range.
We really have little to complain about when it comes to the MSI Z87-GD65. The bundle has a couple of extras that we're not used to seeing for a board at this price point, and features wise, you can also see a couple of things that stand out. With so many good motherboards on the market companies of course really need to do something to stand out. It feels like putting everything together here, MSI has managed to create a strong motherboard, which we have no issues recommending.

THE Hamilton Kangaroos need to lift themselves up off the canvas after taking another "body blow" against South Warrnambool on Saturday at Friendly Societies' Park.
Whether their latest 14.15 (99) to 13.14 (92) setback was a knockout blow will depend on how the playing group responds in coming weeks.
Not for the first time this season the Kangaroos found themselves in a winning position away from home, only to return empty handed.
The challenge now before the Kangaroos is to rectify this alarming trend and to do so quickly!
Hamilton Kangaroos senior playing coach Jarrod Holt issued a blunt and honest assessment in his post match interview with the Spectator.
"The results are results," he said.
"It doesn't matter how good you are … results are results and that's all I care about.
"If we play like crap and win a game, I'm happy."
The Kangaroos will use the interleague break this weekend to reassess where they are at.

Thorisdottir, Froning repeat as CrossFit champions
It was déjà vu all over again on Sunday afternoon, as reigning champions Rich Froning and Annie Thorisdottir won the 2012 Reebok CrossFit Games and retained their titles as "The Fittest on Earth."
The games, which normally span three days, began on Wednesday with a surprise extra day of competition at U.S. Marine Base Camp Pendleton in San Onofre, Calif. Competitors completed a long, rugged swim-bike-run race in the Santa Ana Mountains, then ran the Camp's School of Infantry obstacle course. Workouts on Friday and Saturday included a track triplet consisting of 400-meter sprints, split-snatches and muscle-ups, a football-style sled-push combined with rope climbs and a power-clean ladder. The competition ended Sunday at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., stuffed to standing-room-only capacity, with three of CrossFit's trademark benchmark workouts, all named after girls: Elizabeth, Isabel and Fran.
Both Froning and Thorisdottir began Sunday afternoon's final series of events in first place and showed few signs of fatigue after 12 events and four days of competition.
Froning, 24, from Cookeville, Tenn., finished Elizabeth (21-15-9 reps of power cleans and ring dips) in a record time of 2:33. He then won Isabel (30 snatches) with a blistering time of 1:20, securing his first-place finish. Knowing his victory was secure, Froning coasted to a fifth-place finish in Fran (21-15-9 reps of thrusters and pull-ups). He ended the weekend with a total of 1,089 points, 114 more than second-place finisher Matt Chan.
This was the fifth games appearance for the 34-year-old Chan from Denver, Colo., but it was his first time on the podium; he is also the oldest athlete to medal in games' history. Thirty-year-old Kyle Kasperbauer, a former running back for the University of Nebraska-Omaha, finished third.
Thorisdottir, 22, from Reykjavik, Iceland, finished sixth in Elizabeth, then first in Isabel with an impressive time of 1:29 to secure her repeat victory. Like Fronning, Thorisdottir also took her foot off the gas during Fran, finishing sixth in that event.
Thorisdottir's 1,062 points put her a comfortable distance above second-place finisher Julie Foucher. The 23-year-old from Ann Arbor, Mich., had finished in fifth place at both the 2010 and 2011 games. Foucher was just four points ahead of third-place finisher Talayna Fortunato, a 31-year-old, first-year competitor from Naples, Fla.

We applied for a USDA research grant through NRCS (Natural Resource Conservation Service) to evaluate high tunnels. The research entails reporting to the USDA what and how much we plant, amendments used on the soil and what our yields are, each year for three years. We have read about high tunnels, their limitations as well as benefits so this gives us a leg up. Because we are new farmers (under ten years of farming), we qualified for a 90/10 split on costs.
We received word that our application was accepted and that we would be in the first round of funding. Theoretically, it was a 90/10 split in costs. Actually after everything is said and done, it will be about a 70/30 split which still isn't bad but we are absorbing the greater of the two numbers. What is bad is that these things are sold as being easy to set up. I swear, we were told it could go up in a week and just about, anybody could build them.
Now, I have documented on these pages what skills I have when it comes to building (see, Why I Should Stick to Growing). Nevertheless, this was an opportunity that seemed to good to pass up. First great thing we did was call the general contractor that worked on our house. In order to budget we had to find out his costs. He gave us a period where he would have a window to fit the project in. He said he needed to add another person and that would be an additional cost to the one already quoted.
Here is where the first major mistake took place. I decided that I had the ability to follow orders and could quickly learn what needed to be done in order to a.) Help, b.) Not be a hindrance and c.) Learn how this thing was constructed for future reference. The second major mistake was when Bob, the contractor, decided to use me as his help.
From the beginning, things were hard, starting right out of the gate with the delivery. I knew it was coming in a tractor-trailer and that eighteen-wheelers cannot make it up to our barn. Fortunately, there is an area in front of the driveway were we can accept deliveries like 3,000 gallon black water tanks and high tunnels the size of a football field. The day the tunnel arrived, I was prepared to take delivery. The driver gets out of his truck looks at my tractor with pallet forks and says, "You going to use that to carry this thing?" "Well, yes I do or thought I was". He asks, "Do you know what this thing is?" I wondered, does he often have customers that order things without knowing what they are getting, sort of the adult version of grab bags?
"Yes," I answered "Of course", while my anxiety is hitting new highs; he is opening the back door. I guess I forgot to mention the high tunnel is 12x35x96. I do have a small tractor, a John Deere, and it is a workhorse. Slowly but surely we got the thing off the truck, piece by piece. Now the tractor almost tipped over a couple of times but it was brief seconds of terror interspersed with sighs of relief.
It took me all of three hours to unload the truck and move the pieces up to the staging area. Add another four hours to unpack and inventory everything except for the missing parts. They would come later on after a phone call to the company. Bob told me when he would be available and I took off work for that week. The company told us, it would take about a week to put up. I forgot to ask if that estimate was metric or decimal, I remember a NASA mistake like that once.
We were basing the work estimate and people needed on the information from the company. DO NOT BELIEVE THEM. IT IS NOT EASY TO PUT UP AND YOU NEED MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE. I will not go into details mainly because of heat stress related reasons and I forgot allot of what went on that first week. Temperatures ranged from 85-96 degrees with heat indexes rising as high as 110 degrees.
I do remember drinking a gallon and a half of water each day, being too tired at the end of the day to do anything other then shower, drink water and sit in front of a running fan. I remember day four, it was 96 degrees and we were drinking water every half hour. We were digging wholes were the motorized post whole digger would not sink into the ground. In that, 35x96 foot print the soil ranged the whole spectrum of grades. You name it we ran into it, sand, clay, loam, silt. We hit sand stone. When you would hit the sand stone with the digging bar, it had the timber of hitting cement.
We quit at 2:30 that day. I went in the house and sat in the shade on the front porch. I had a big jug of water and I started noticing that my vision was getting hazy and I had stopped sweating. I realized these to be signs of heat stress so I headed up to the shower to get a nice cold drenching. I took a prolonged shower and started feeling refreshed. I got dressed and went down stairs to sit in front of a fan. The house is air-conditioned but that was not enough. Before I got down the stairs, my muscles started cramping all over my body, my legs, my fingers, my stomach muscles and back. Because of various reasons, we have a bunch of those blue ice packs in the freezer. I was placing ice packs and ice jugs all over my body and forcing water down my gullet.
I kept ice on my body and kept drinking water. Had I gone to the emergency room that was all they were going to do so I saved my self the trip. Slowly the muscle spasms abated, my vision got better and I started going to the bathroom. All good signs, so I just kept up with what I was doing. When my wife got home, she asked how things went and as I was explaining, she asked, "What is wrong with your voice?" I was tired, my energy was at a low point, and I told her so. Last thing I needed was for her to know I was suffering heat stress. There probably would have been an over-reaction and she would not have let me out to play the next day.
"What are all the ice packs for?" She is observant, "muscle ache." I said. She was okay with that answer and she went on to change clothes and take care of the chickens. I was no good, usually I work two hours a day on farm related activities, after getting off work but I could not do it. Once I was inside that was it, I was getting ready to go to bed. Time of day did not matter getting my energy back for the next's day work was the point. My wife said that she has never seen me sleep as I did that first week. I do not know that for real I was sleeping, so I could not tell.
Well, one week stretched into two. I worked the weekend to catch up on the farm stuff. By the second week I had to go back to work on Thursday. Monday was Memorial Day, so I had that off and did more farm work. I worked with Bob on Tuesday and Wednesday. I was never so glad to get back to my real job, as I was in my entire life. I do not see how people in the construction trade do it. I thought for as hard as I work growing for six months and during the cold months cutting down dead trees and splitting them for firewood that I could keep up. I was close but I was wrong. I have always had respect for people in the trades especially those craftsmen that take pride in their work, like Bob. It was great working for him and I did not want to let him down but in the end, I had to give it to him. I was ready to go back to work and glad for it.
The high tunnel is completed and we have planted tomatoes in it to see how far into the winter they last. We are going to try to grow throughout the winter so it should be interesting. I know this thing is going to be great! How do I know this? Because, nothing good ever came from something easy and this was no easy project!

Milton Jones
Review by Chris Menezies
I've seen hours and hours and hours on end of stand-up this festival, and Milton Jones was so refreshing with a unique hour packed full of clever one liners.
While I would say this show isn't for everybody, Jones is packing out his room with hundreds of people each night to the amazing show. The sheer wit this man has in piecing together the most bizarre and seemingly nonsensical sentences together, and have a clever punch line after each one is amazing.
I genuinely think Milton just wrote a half hour of material, and the other half was just the audience wetting their pants. I'm going to put this in my top 10 must sees.

U.K. company helps transform hand-crafted chassis manufacturing process into fast, accurate, automated CNC process
Caged Ltd. is using SolidWorks(R) 3D CAD and COSMOSWorks(R) design analysis software to transform a decades-old hand-crafted automobile chassis manufacturing process into one that is faster, more efficient, and more accurate. The company has cut weeks out of development and made the chassis lighter and straighter for the legendary Caterham cars, which have the performance and distinctive elegance to match their discriminating customer base.
Founded in 2002 in Westbury, U.K., Caged specializes in designing durable roll cages for motor sports vehicles. The company had been supplying specially built roll cages to Caterham Cars Ltd. when the car maker decided to reconfigure its Caterham 7 chassis and the inexact, labor-intensive process for making them. Caged used SolidWorks to streamline the chassis design and COSMOSWorks to test load strength and other tolerances. Both SolidWorks and COSMOSWorks are the starting point for an automated design-to-manufacture process that has cut months out of chassis development. This new process lets engineers design and build a universal chassis that could support four different engines in 10 days.
"We couldn't have finished that first project in AutoCAD(R) software. It doesn't have the ability to do that work," said Phil Squance, engineering director at Caged. "SolidWorks as a product family is great because it lets you design something, tweak it, and analyze it in COSMOS(R) to test it - all in one package. SolidWorks and COSMOSWorks have more than doubled our productivity, while enabling us to design better chassis."
Building a car that weighs less than 1,000 pounds and is capable of going 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds requires that the chassis be strong and light. Caterham engineers, who had never used CAD software, were initially skeptical that any chassis designed on the computer could deliver the performance demanded by discriminating drivers. Squance and his team moved a couple of the tubes in the chassis to improve its stiffness and alignment, and then used COSMOSWorks to arithmetically prove to Caterham engineers that the newly designed chassis was stronger. "SolidWorks and COSMOSWorks dramatically reduce the risk of human error from the hand-crafted process. Now, when we design something, cut it, and put it together, it fits," said Squance.
To streamline design-to-manufacture, Caged engineers simply import SolidWorks models directly into the software that runs the company's laser machine that cuts the tubes for the chassis. This computer numerical control (CNC) process lets Caged quickly and accurately produce chassis tube frames that meet exact engineering specifications. Each frame is sturdy and perfectly straight.
"Caged has carved a niche in a very competitive industry," said Michel Gros, SolidWorks executive vice president, Europe. "Adopting SolidWorks and COSMOSWorks has enabled it to save time and money, design better chassis, and help usher a sports car company with rich traditions in hand-wrought steel into the 21st century."
Caged relies on authorized SolidWorks reseller Cadtek Systems for ongoing software training, implementation, and support.

So I am going to one shot Horror of Hugeldal for a group of friends. I have a total of five players and I am planning on pre-generating the PC's for the group.
What I am wondering about is power level for the group in order to make the game difficult but not a TPK. I have 5 PC's so far, each with 13 XP which puts them all into the beginning of their 2nd career. The humans are a bit further along than the dwarf and the halfing. The human X-soldier turned veteran, is a real beast as his career transition cost him nothing and he is 2 advances into his current career. The dwarf and the halfing have just their career bonuses with no additional advances.
The Group consists of
Dwarven Smuggler turned Burgher
Halfling Scout turned Mercenary
Human Soldier turned Veteran
Human Wizards Apprentice turned Acolyte (I'm thinking Amethyst because I loved the setup that Reckless Dice used)
Human Minstrel I've yet to level up
I've listened to Reckless Dice Podcast Live session on Horror of Hugeldal and have been trying to judge my PC's strength vs. the RDP groups' strength. From what I can tell it sounded like both the dwarves and the amethyst wizard were getting ready to transition to their second career; while Helga had just started her second career. Now that was 4 PC's at probably about 12-13 XP who almost got a TPK.
The Group I'm putting together is a party of 5 of each 13XP. Is this enough XP make for a good difficult game?
Any thoughts would be appreciated
