I think it would be possible to put everything within the house envelope that is freeze sensitive, especially since you plan on passive solar and an earth berm. The solar hot water panels could be under a skylight on a roof angled and oriented for solar gain, with shades to prevent overheating the panels when not being used. I had water boil in mine when a circulating pump quit! A thermosiphon hot water system might be another option.
If you have an uninsulated concrete floor and an earth berm, with good insulation above grade, freezing should not be a problem. My earth shelter never drops below 65 degrees with no heat, but I am in Florida with a 72 degree ground temp. My well and pressure tank are in an insulated building that will not freeze due to the warmth from the ground, even when we had a 17 degree low.
Thanks for the reply, Pat. That's an interesting idea on placing the hot water panels under a skylight. I'm not sure the reduction in gain would be efficient here -- we don't get nearly the direct sun that Florida does -- but if there is electrical backup losing a bit of efficiency may be an acceptable trade-off.
It is considerably warmer where you are. Our ground temperature gets down to about 45F here, and with a periods sometimes of a week with highs of 20F (and possibly lower depending on the location of the property), I'm not sure a partial berm and the design alone could keep the pipes from freezing during these periods.
The obvious solution would seem to be a small tankless system, but it would require a much larger PV array. This is not only a cost issue -- especially since it must be oversized for our sub-optimal sun anyway -- but any large and conspicuous PV array left unsupervised routinely and predictably for a week or more might not be there when I get back!
I think now,if I were to do this all over again I definitely would put water lines and such on the interior portions of the walls and most definitely if there were to be any such water system,to put the pump in or under the house.You do not say where you are,but definitely would run a 12 volt either main or backup system water pump and well insulated.Passive solar would require lots of stone.Hot water definitely an on demand system,electric or gas or forced hot water.You may luck out with an air to air heat pump setup for heat,along with the passive solar.Wood stove can heat your hot water with a coil in the firebox.
The problem with an on-demand hot water heater is it forces the PV array to really be up-sized. They pull anywhere from 80-150 amps. For a tri-phase 220v unit, that's a whopping 30000 watts.
I have heard you can heat water with a wood stove, but I don't see firing up a wood stove to wash the dishes in the summer when it's 105 outside.
I'm starting to think an in-wall heat pump, setting the thermostat down to 40F or so in the winter when I'm gone. I installed one as a backup heat source in an old condo that had a 45 year old furnace and it worked great. Many pull as little as 3-4 amps -- only 1300 watts. We get plenty of sun in the winter, so the PV array could just keep it ticking along. I'd still insulate the pipes and such against outages, as an added safety factor, so the hot water tank would be the only likely casualty, and even then the cabin might perform well enough to say above freezing.
Plus it means cutting less wood... although I think I'd have a wood stove as a backup anyway.
For thermal mass, I'm thinking ICF. It's simple to build with, will be strong enough to hold the weight of the berm and is easy to water proof. Also strong enough to be tornado resistant.
Oh no,I did not imply firing the stove up in summer to do the dishes,no thats what solar hot water collectors are for. A tank outside painted black is more than enough to suffice for hot water in summer,or you could do panels with them piped in parallel with a hot water heater.The woodstove with the helicoil can be used to space heat the building as well as domestic hot water piped in parallel with the hotwater tank.That way if all else fails to keep the cabin above freezing the hot water heater will act as a space heating unit to keep it above freezing.You can get on demand heaters in lp gas too.120 volts x 4 amps=480 watts,so even better!
Yeah, but I won't be there all the time to feed a wood stove to keep the pipes from freezing!
When I am there is not the problem -- trust me, if it's below freezing inside, I'm moving out.
Design all of your supply plumbing so it can be easily drained. Valves and faucets opened up and the slope of things makes it all drain out easily. Traps such as the sink and toilet must get antifreeze added, or be sucked out dry somehow such as a wet or dry vac.
Hello Nicole
I am exactly in your situation right now. Our homestead is at 5000 feet in the Sierra Nevada, and the winter lows here drop into the teens. Freeze damage is one of the things I have to focus on. We have a well and 5000 gallon storage tanks situated up the hill from our cabin. We run a generator to produce 220V power to pump water into the tank, but get gravity flow back down with the generator off. If the tanks are full, their thermal mass keeps them from freezing in winter, but that's with the pipe to the cabin drained.
I'm just in the process of finishing the inside shell of our cabin now, and only now am I running PEX pipe through the walls to bring water inside to the kitchen and bathroom. PEX is good because it can handle freezing, and can be pushed through completed construction. Our source of winter water is just 5 gallon buckets that I fill up at home and bring with me. I find that I can get by with about 10 gallons a day, which includes cooking/cleanup, a few toilet flushes, and a shower. I'll heat hot water on my gasoline stove, put it in 1 gallon plastic jugs, and shower that way. Two or three gallons will get you satisfyingly clean. I use about 3 gallons to flush the toilet. I just dump the water straight in the bowl. The weight of the water starts the siphon that performs the flushing process. When I leave, I leave standing water in the toilet and tub drains. It doesn't get cold enough INSIDE the cabin for water to freeze. What we could do though is flush the line with water/antifreeze if we thought the weather would get so cold it might freeze inside.
For long term, I bought a propane powered tankless heater for hot water. That will only get plumbed in once I build a utility room around our well so all the pipes from the well can be inside from the weather. I won't use the TWH till we get our solar panels installed because it has an electric igniter. I also plan on having a solar batch heater for summer hot water. What I've already done is laid the pipe for it, but instead of the batch collector, I spliced in 200 feet of regular garden hose. Carefully laid in the summer sun, it collects enough heat for a several minute hot shower. I may also plumb our wood cookstove for thermalsiphin hot water, but that again would only be for winter hot water.
So many ideas, and so many projects. I am right now installing the chimney for our woodstove, then it's finishing the bathroom, then it's finishing the kitchen, then it's finishing the solar panels, then its.....
Well, you get the idea. Things take a long time to complete when they're getting finished peicemeal, one by one.
Good luck to you, and definately make your land purchase as soon as you can. I doubt if prices will get any better than right now! If you can finalize a deal this winter, you'll have time to break ground and get your first garden and fruit trees in the ground.
I am in the early stages of planning a small off-grid house on 10+ acres that will be used for weekends and, someday, full-time living. I am not going to choose a property until I do some more planning, but there are plenty of candidates in my price range. I plan to buy the property and then build myself as time and cash flow permits.
My current thinking is:
electricity - PV arraywater - well or rainwater collection, depending on the sitesanitation - composting toilets, greywater (or the county may require a septic tank)hot water - solar hot water + electricity from PV arrayheat - passive solar design + partial earth berm + wood stove
Since I expect to use the cabin during the winter, too, I don't want to have a lengthy winterize/de-winterize process each weekend. The winters are mild, but we do have periods in the winter where temps may stay below freezing for several days at a time.
I have considered a pump which only pumps water up out of the well or an underground cistern on demand, and also the possibility of burying the pipes underground. (The ground never really freezes here.) However, that still leaves the hot water heater tank.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this, or has a system they are using successfully?

Hyperemesis gravidarum is extreme, persistent nausea and vomiting during pregnancy that can lead to dehydration.
Nausea - persistent - in pregnancy; Vomiting - persistent - in pregnancy
Nearly all women have some nausea or vomiting (
Extreme nausea and vomiting during pregnancy can happen if you are pregnant with twins (or more babies) or if you have a hydatidiform mole.
The doctor will do a physical exam. Blood pressure may be low. Pulse may be high.
The following laboratory tests will be done to check for signs of dehydration:
Your doctor may need to run tests to make sure you do not have liver and gastrointestinal problems.
A pregnancy ultrasound will be done to see if you are carrying twins or more babies. Ultrasound also checks for a hydatidiform mole.
Small, frequent meals and eating dry foods such as crackers may help relieve uncomplicated nausea.
Drink plenty of fluids. Increase fluids during times of the day when you feel least nauseated. Seltzer, ginger ale, or other sparkling waters may be helpful.
Vitamin B6 (no more than 100 mg daily) has been shown to decrease nausea in early pregnancy. Ask your health care provider if this vitamin might help you.
If your nausea and vomiting is so severe that you and your baby might be in danger, your doctor will prescribe anti-nausea medicine. If your case is very severe, you will likely be admitted to the hospital. There, fluids will be given to you through an IV.
Nausea and vomiting is usually worst between 2 and 12 weeks of pregnancy and goes away by the second half of pregnancy. Sometimes it will last longer. With proper identification of symptoms and careful follow-up, serious complications for the baby or mother are rare.
Too much vomiting is harmful because it leads to dehydration and poor weight gain during pregnancy.
Social or psychological problems may be associated with this disorder of pregnancy. If these problems exist, they need to be identified and taken care of by the health care provider.
Call your health care provider if you are pregnant and have severe nausea and vomiting.

"Entertaining, but mostly proganda"
First let me say that Peter Carlson wrote one of my 3 most favorite audiobooks ever in K Blows Top, if you liked this book you should LOVE that one.
For this book I have mixed feelings. I've legit read well over 100 books on the Civil War at this point from every perspective. This book is certaining entertaining and it brings a point of view to events, but the problem is with the source material. Both "reporters" would in no way be considered reporters by todays standards, and thats with the joke of the media we have. Instead Junius and Albert were propaganda writers that every once in a while would sneak in some facts. When you read their material the only thing I take at face value (most of the time) is that they were at the location they said they were at on the day they said they were - beyond that you must take everything with a grain of salt.
Also the book is incomplete on setting the stage for the events. I think the author does a decent job of trying to work in some facts so you can place the events in perspective, but the authors main job is to move the story along and stopping it to explain what something happen might have slowed everything down.
For example one of the reasons that the southern prisons were in such bad shape was that in some locations there were inadequate food supplies - the author notes this but I'm not sure that point really comes across. While the south actually had more than enough food as a whole, the problem was the complete destruction of the transportation system in the south which left parts of the south with an overabundance of food and materials while other parts were legitimately starving. The second point that is underplayed in this book was Lincoln's desire to end the war was quickly as possible - and part of that was taking advantage of the manpower superiority that the north had over the south. Lincoln didn't want to resume the prisoner exchanges because while the north could easily handle the loss of troops he knew the south could not. By leaving huge number of troops as POWs in the south, the south had to use resources to care for them and guard them, in addition to all the southern troops that the north held as POWs, which further weakened the south. Some say this is heartless, but the idea was that overall the loss of life would be lower if the war ended sooner.
So with all that said I still rate the book 4-stars because it's a good and interesting read. The Adventures in the Confederacy is a good title since it is an adventure and it's written in an easy to read mostly lighthearted fashion. Again you have to do your best to try to figure out what is legit and what isn't, but still it provides a different point of view to events so there is something to be taken from that.
The reader of this book does a very good and I would probably be more like a 4.5.
"Enjoyable SHORT book"
There isn't much about Jeff Davis on Audible, which is a shame since he's such an interesting person and important person in American history.
This book is a good quick overview of Davis during the Civil War. The story moves well, never really bogs down, but obviously at 5hrs doesn't really get deep into anything. If you're looking for an easy to overview of Davis during the Civil War this will do the job well.
The reader does a good job, fits the tone of the book.
BTW 4 stars means the book is enjoyable and good, but I can't really give it 5 stars since it doesn't cover enough material. If you're interested in Davis there is another full autobiography of Davis available on Audible, I'd highly recommend checking that out even if it's not written as well and the reader isn't very good.
"Bull Shi..."
I gave up on this book after the first few hours, it's pure BS. Nothing can be verified, the stories are nonsense, this guy is full of it. I'm writing Audible to request a refund. Unless you want to read a piece of fiction or you're just gullible, avoid this piece of trash.
"Failure of the US Justice System"
The fact this piece of trash is still alive is everything that is wrong with America's legal system - this guy should have long ago been given the death sentence.
With that said that said overall I like the book, it's a very interesting tale and I'm amazed I never really heard about it before now. The book moves at a good pace and I was never bored by anything.
On the negative side it always amazes me how groups of people never feel they're responsible for their own actions, and the author feeds into that view point at times. It's not too bad, but it is obnoxious.
The reader does a great job here putting on accents to help you know who is speaking and has excellent pacing.
Overall if you like the description then you'll like the book, but you'll want this whiney Cuban tough guy dead.
"Good overview"
What I was looking for was something more along the lines of how your average citizen lived in the years before the revolution, like simple stuff - how did newspapers work, how did you buy groceries, all that sort of day to day stuff. Of course this is not that and it's not really covered here so I'm not deducting any points for that, I just wish someone did have a series on that since I think it would be interesting.
Anyways, this lecture covers basically all the time before 1776. It started off a bit slow for my tastes, but as it goes along it gets better. I think Professor Allison does a good job of presenting various points of views and beliefs, in this day of political correctness that is refreshing.
Overall I enjoyed this lecture, like all of The Teaching Company's courses this is excellent.
This is an entertaining audiobook, basically the same stuff you read on their site being read to you. The reader does a good job and I enjoyed the book, even if it did leave me dumber.
There isn't much in terms of books about reconstruction on Audible and I was hoping that this might help fill that void, but this book is not that. The book mainly focuses on brief generic bios of people involved with government during and after the Civil War. If you've read a decent amount of Civil War history there is nothing to be learned here - but if you're a beginner that wants a simple overview of the war and the years after this, this will perhaps work but it will also be extremely incomplete. Also the book is written from a northern point of view. I think the author tries to be balanced, but the way he presents information isn't always done very well. Nothing outrageous or anything - just missing pieces of information here and there that could have been summed up in a sentence or two isn't there and changes the context of numerous pieces of information he provides - like General Lee applying for citizenship, the author leaves out why he did that.
The reader does a good job with the material provided.
"Great read"
I've read a ton of WWII books and now I've become interested in seeing the events from the opposing point of view, not in a 'hate America' way or a 'we're all bad' way, but just to see how people, soldiers and individuals lived on a day to day basis and how they saw events unravel. So with that said I found this book and gave it a listen and I must say it's excellent. The summary tells you everything you need to know so I won't bother to add to it, but this is certainly something I'll go back and listen to again at some point in the future.
The reader does a very good job - but I could have done without the German accent he puts on. I'm not sure if it adds to it or not and eventually I got used to it, but without the accent it would have been easier to understand. Don't get me wrong, it's very well done and it might have added something to the book, but I personally would have preferred no accent (and it's a put-on accent, you can hear other examples done by the reader without it). Again this is a minor issue, but the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
Overall this is a 5 star book which is a good thing since there is a very limited selection of books like this available on Audible. Certainly if the subject matter at all sounds interesting to you, buy it.
"Great book"
If you're at all interested in the subject I highly recommend the book, it's really that simple.
This book is a great look into what was happening at Sega during the time that Genesis became the #1 console in the US - but that didn't happen right away, it took a few years. When I was a kid I read all the video game magazines and have a very clear memeber of what happened and when, but I still learned a ton from reading this book. For example I had no idea that Sega of America was so close to collapse in those early days. For me and my friends we all thought Sega was a mainstay, equal with Nintendo. However this book presents the story in a very different perspective.
The book is a great listen, although it's long it moves at a good pace. Also the reader does a great job.
Positives: Presents mostly the Sega side of the console war, shows how they came into power and the mistakes that cost it when they moved to the 32bit generation. Very entertaining and (mostly) a great history lesson. The writer is very talented in terms of being able to tell an interesting story, even if you didn't care about the subject you'd still probably enjoy the book due to the authors efforts.
Negatives: The timelines near the beginning of the book seem to not always align with how I remember things - lots of stuff happened in a short time and sometimes the author presents minor things out of order, but then revisits it later to clear it up. If you don't know any better this probably works well and keeps the story moving. There are also some minor issues with the games, for example at one point the author states at the time of sponsoring an LPGA event that Sega didn't have any golf games, but they did as Arnold Palmer Golf was a launch title on the unit. Also when talking about Mode 7 on the SNES the author says it was the first game to use that ability, again that is not correct, F-Zero, a launch title for the SNES was the first to use Mode 7. Minor issues, but I'm surprised in such a well researched book those got past the editors. Also while the reader does a great job overall sometimes his male voices sound quite feminine. I understand the idea of using different voices as it helps you know when the book is quoting someone and helps you keep track of who speaking and it's a minor issue, but there were times that I thought it was a woman speaking only to find out it was a man. Again, a minor issue.
One last negative. The author extensively "quotes" people in the book - however I have a very hard time believing most of these quotes are actual quotes and not just lines made-up to advance the story. While I'm sure the "quotes" are educated guesses based on interviews of the subjects there's just no way people would be able to clearly remember exactly what they said 20+ years ago on some many minor issues. Normally for history books I'd really ding any book that I felt was making up quotes, but here I think it's for the best since this isn't an in depth history book of a subject like a world war. Also since most, if not all, of the people in this book are very much alive, I'd assume the author did his due diligence and while the quotes may not be exact, I'd assume they're close enough.
Anyways note that I gave the book 5 stars overall so don't dwell on the negatives. This is a great, entertaining book and I highly recommend it.
"I'm not sure what to believe"
Going into this book I had read some the reviews that had questioned the authenticity of the story, along with the rebuttals provided by Lt Col Boyd and his son. In my opinion the questions were stronger than the rebuttal but as my grand-father served in Korea and there isn't a ton out there on Audible about it and I've read just about everything else I decided I'd give it a try and see what I thought.
In the beginning of the book the author explains that it's been a very long time since this event occurred and as such he can't recall the exact dialog that took place all the time. This is very reasonable, however I personally don't like the way they addressed this issue providing the various characters with basically movie lines. The entire book in fact reads like a movie - in some cases that is good, in this case it is not since it reads like a 60s WWII flick you've seen 100 times with predictable characters saying lines you would have sworn you've heard before. I would have left out the dialog all together if it was in doubt and just stuck as much as possible on what was going on from a factual standpoint. The dialog really really took me out of it and made it feel like I was reading a novel - and again not in a good way, in a this is completely fake way.
So if you give a pass on the dialog is the story believable? I just don't know. I certainly do not want to call a retired Lt Col a lair but there are so many things in the story that don't make sense and nothing is verifiable. I don't know what can be done to prove anything but without a shred of evidence and movie script characters it's so very difficult to just assume everything is on the up and up. It very well may be, and I truly hope it is - however my gut feeling from reading everything I can get my hands on about Korea and WWII this story just doesn't jive with what I know.
If you have an interest in the subject my only advise would be to listen to it and make up your own mind.
As for the reader he did a very good job, everything was well paced, he used different voices to help you keep track of who was talking and as far as I know I didn't hear any obvious mistakes. Well done. If I could give 4 1/2 stars I would, but it's a bit closer to 4 stars than 5 so I'll leave it at 4.

SOUNDS FOR A WHILE transports audiences into two different realms – those of traditional opera and the soundscape of the present day. The two worlds are arguably connected by the power of sounds. Hearing is a direct and unmediated experience and sound thus occupies a special position in our modern, automated society. Yet what are the stimuli that influence and determine the auditory culture of our times? And how can the sounds of this culture be combined with the traditions of staged opera, which represents its own overwhelming world of sound? How can we present on stage the acoustic components of both worlds – the everyday environment and the highly complex art form - in a way that allows visual elements to co-determine, intensify and modify the tapestry of sound? "Sound Studies" is a master's programme offered by the Berlin University of the Arts which explores modern auditive culture, an omnipresent yet oft neglected and unappreciated aspect of modern life.

Let's do some basic math....we're talking basic; 1st grade stuff.
How about this one:
The answer to that last problem is 3. However, theologically speaking, the answer is one. ONE?! That's right-one! This simple math formula isn't as simple as it looks. This is a formula for helping to understand the Trinity: Three persons in one God.
Father+Son=Holy Spirit=God
Every time we cross ourselves, we do so in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Yet, it can be such a difficult thing for our minds to grasp.
In trying to better understand the Trinity, it might be a good idea to start in Scripture. Not in the New Testament, like you might expect, but in the Old Testament. The Trinity is in the Old Testament? Yes, it is, and it's right there from the beginning.
The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters. (Genesis 1:2)
Later, in the same chapter, we see a reference to the Trinity during the creation of man:
Then God said, "Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness." (Genesis 1:26)
The Trinity acted together in creation because all three persons existed together from the beginning of time.
This is just an introduction. There is so much to look at. Next time, we'll stay in the Book of Genesis, looking at the story of the Hospitality of Abraham, which gives us our icon of the Holy Trinity.

Double sided polyester (PE) film tapes are typically thinner and include the 3.4 mil thick JVCC DC-1114 and the 3.5 mil thick JVCC DC-4109RS, JVCC-DC4199CS, and red DC-PETF-35-R. The JVCC DC-4109RS is a very popular choice since it is economical and offers low adhesion of only 29 ounces per inch.
Double-sided PVC film tapes typically offer more aggressive adhesion and include the JVCC DCC-4420LB (either clear and black film), Scapa S301 (clear), JVCC DC-WPVC98 (white), JVCC DC-4414W (white) and JVCC DC-4420 (white). They are coated on both sides with an acrylic adhesive and are popular for their UV, aging, water vapor, and temperature resistance. The Scapa S301 is sometimes preferred for its ability to bond to more difficult surfaces like cloth or fabric.
Polypropylene (PP) film options include both the JVCC DC-1503 product coated on both sides with a quick stick rubber adhesive and the JVCC DC-PPF22 product with a solvent-based acrylic adhesive which offers good static and dynamic shear resistance.
For tapes that are coated differentially (one side would offer a more aggressive permanent adhesive and the other a less aggressive removable adhesive) see the Scapa S305 product (117 ounces per inch of adhesion on the exposed side vs. 25 ounces per inch on the liner side), the JVCC DC-4110R/P product (53 ounces per inch vs. 28 ounces per inch), the 3M 9415PC (50 ounces per inch vs. 5 ounces per inch) or the JVCC DC-4408SW (30 ounces per inch vs. 22 ounces per inch). These tapes are used for applications such as temporary labels and decals and for reclosable bags and envelopes.
For tapes which are equally removable from both sides see the 3M 109 poster tape or the linerless 3M 665 or 3M 667 products. These tapes are used for mounting and attaching tasks and typically offer better repositionability.

Getting Healthy in the Workplace
If you are overweight or obese, it is important to get healthy quickly. In workplaces across the United States, many billions of dollars are lost every year in revenue as workplaces need to compensate for sick leave.
While accidents do happen, many illnesses are easily avoidable. Especially when it comes to some musculoskeletal disorders such as arthritis or RSI, they can arise through constant, daily discomfort in the workplace in a bad sitting position.
Getting the Right Seat
It is every worker's responsibility to make sure that the seat they are working in is comfortable for their needs. While you will almost certainly start your workplace with a computer, a chair, a table and some other furniture, you should set up and customize your workspace so that it is comfortable for you.
Bad posture can also lead to problems with health in the workplace and if sitting in bad posture for years, various injuries can come up. Carpal tunnel syndrome can be caused by excessive or unsafe use of a computer. The constant clicking action of fingers, wrists and typing can cause a nerve in the arm to begin swelling and causing pain.
Carpal tunnel can be very debilitating and painful, and is one of the chief causes of injuries and accidents in the workplace.
Sitting at the Right Distance and Angle
Setting up your seat so that you are at the right angle and distance from your monitor is also important. You need to be about 25" away (about an arm's length or more) from your screen. This is also important for optical health. Every few minutes, look away from your monitor and fix your gaze on something else in the room or outside. This helps to flush the tear ducts in your eyes and readjust your vision.
The keyboard and mouse should be on the same flat surface. Your hands should be at 90 degrees to the table and be resting on the desk or on a keyboard rest. Feet should be flat on the floor to facilitate correct blood flow to every part of the body.
Coping with Seated Work
In some situations, you have no choice but to do seated work in an office for many hours at a time. This is where some coping strategies can come into place. These will allow you to preserve your health longer as well.
1) Every half an hour at least, you should take a short walk somewhere in the building. The bathroom, the kitchen, a vending machine, a brief walk outside. Some employers may not allow this too frequently so find out what is acceptable.
2) Ask your manager for a shared couch or resting area near a workplace. Workers can take short breaks there to read or they can have quiet discussions.
3) Stand up and walk around the room a few times every hour to move the blood a bit where it is needed.
7 Reasons Why it is Important to Take Breaks at Work
Do you ever find yourself working for hours on end sitting in an office chair without getting up to take a break? This is not uncommon, in fact most people either do not know or forget to take breaks when working long hours sitting in one position. Whether you work full time or part-time from home or in a traditional workplace setting, it is still important to take breaks. Taking breaks while working long hours is essential and crucial to your health.
Employers may need to think about the environment in which their work takes place in order to develop an adequate plan for allowing time for breaks. For jobs which are full time, two shorter breaks is often adequate. People who work behind a computer all day should take a break every hour or so and be able to get up and move round. This enables them from being in a seated posture all day staring at the screen. People who work in highly repetitive jobs should be offered more frequent shorter breaks in order to prevent boredom which can result in a decrease in productivity, a decrease in proficiency, and less mistakes. There are many reasons why regular breaks are important; here are just a few.
1. Circulation is impaired by prolonged sitting: When you sit in static postures where you are not moving, circulation can be impeded. When blood flow to an active muscle is impaired, the oxygen supply is diminished, which over time can impair muscle function. The feeling of fatigue often is related to circulation and blood supply.
2 Working on the computer distorts the awareness of time: When working for long hours on the computer most people do not take breaks frequently enough, nor do they realize how much time has passed since they began working. An easy way to eliminate this problem is to make sure people take regular breaks by using time reminders.
3. Burnout: People who work continually face complete burnout and what good is a burnt out employee? Physical exhaustion can lead to problems such as chronic headaches, fatigue, inability to concentrate, and trouble sleeping at night. Even if all you take is 15 minutes during an 8 hour work day, you can use that time to refresh yourself and feel more energized the rest of the work day.
4 Productivity: Many studies have revealed that workers who take breaks are dramatically more productive during the day as opposed to those who do not. After a break, your performance levels increase dramatically so that you can tackle tasks again with renewed vigor and finish them accurately. Mistakes are also made more when you do not refresh your mind and body.
5. Heart Risks: After researchers in Finland conducted a study on a group of nearly 800 workers over the span of 28 years, they found that subjects who failed to find time to recover from their workweek were more likely to eventually die of cardiovascular disease. If people are not able to relax periodically, plaques can build up in their arteries which contribute to potential heart attacks and or strokes.
6. Stress: Focusing on a tedious task for too long can easily lead to physical and mental stress. Stress as most know, can lead to serious implications for our health. Common consequences of stress include high blood pressure, high blood sugar, poor fitness, low resistance to viruses, and serious illnesses. If something that is being worked on becomes too stressful, it is best to take a break from it and resume the work once calm and collected.
7. Repetitive Stress Injuries: Especially for those that sit at a desk all day staring at a computer, it is easy to develop repetitive stress injuries such as eyestrain from staring at a computer screen too long. Carpal Tunnel is also another injury which can develop from spending too much time typing and not typing in the proper position. Sitting in an office chair too long generally leads to wanting to fidget and move posture, most of the time into improper posture. By not sitting correctly and having adequate lumbar support, back and neck pain is sure to develop.When starting your new routine of taking breaks, start small with 5 minute breaks and work your way up in about a week or two. Taking breaks at work cannot be considered being lazy, especially when you take short meaningful ones. There is no harm in trying, but there is harm in not trying.

25.07.2012 /
KTM's Cyril Despres emerged as stage two winner and has taken an early lead in the overall standings on the second day of the Desafio Litoral, the six day rally in northern Argentina that is part of the Dakar Challenge Series.
His push in day two gives him a narrow four minute lead over KTM rider Jakub Przgonski of Poland in the overall standings. Monday's stage winner Chaleco Lopez of Chile finished third and is now behind the Polish rider by about half a minute. The day's ride put three KTMs in the top three places in both the stage and the overall standings.
Speaking from Posadas after the rally, KTM's support staff member Stefan Huber said riders had been faced with heavy rain on Tuesday that made riding almost impossible. "It was raining so hard and everything was so slippery almost all the riders had crashes today," Huber said. KTM's EnduroCross specialist Taddy Blazusiak did not finish after crashing and banging his shoulder. He is at the Desafio Litoral only to experience rally for the first time and may start in tomorrow's stage. The team will decide in the morning if he is to ride, based on how his shoulder is feeling.
As well as the extreme wet and slippery conditions, day two presented riders with two separate challenges over the timed sections of the course. The first started over hard paced terrain but soon disappeared into a maze of tracks through grassed areas and pine plantations. This was followed by a neutral link stretch of a small section of mountaineous jungle before returning to traverse the plantations. The second timed stretch took riders over a rocky and steep area, through a river and then into another area of narrow fast passages. Riders had to pace themselves carefully and be prepared for quick changes in tempo. It was a day that absolute concentration and was a test of both man and machine.
While all top three riders are Dakar veterans of repute, they are all experiencing something quite new in the type of terrain that the Desafio Litoral is offering. They all remarked after day one that riding at speed through thick jungle where the surface could be as slick as ice was very challenging.
Day Three of the rally takes competitors Posadas to Bella Vista.

Parametric Analysis of Electric Field Distribution of Rat Vasculature using Finite Element Time Domain Technique
Chris Capaccio1, Nikolay Stoykov1, Fermin Cortes2,A. Gutierrerz3,
Raji Sundararajan1,3, and David A. Dean1
1Northwestern University, 2University of Waterloo,
3Arizona State University
This paper deals with the study of the effects of tissue parameters, such as electrical conductivity and permittivity on the electric field distribution of a rat mesenteric vasculature model under electroporation conditions.
Electroporation is a nonviral, physical technique that involves transient dielectric breakdown of the cell's plasma membrane when high intensity and short duration electrical voltage pulses are applied. This increases the permeability of the membranes and thus enhances the transfer of macromolecules, such as DNA and drugs into the cell more easily than without the pulses.
Finite Element Time Domain (FETD) technique with Debye dielectric dispersion parameters was used to model this process. The FETD model developed in FEMLAB was implemented using MATLAB.
Results indicate, that in general, the electric field magnitudes changed more significantly when the conductivity values were changed than when the relative permittivity values or the number of terms (2 and 3) of Debye parameters were changed. It is of practical interest to evaluate the effects of these parameters on the tissue electric field distribution to improve gene and drug delivery.

Nerf Vortex disc blasters hands-on
We've always been big fans of Nerf blasters here on Pocket-lint, and never shy away from the opportunity to shoot one or another in the floppy bits with a well-aimed projectile. However, it's been literally hit or miss over the years, as to guarantee a direct strike with a foam dart you need to be pretty close to the target - sometimes within punching distance.
So, can you imagine our joy when we saw the new Nerf Vortex range at the Hasbro Christmas in July event? The blasters (can't call them guns - there's kids around) look similar to traditional fare, but the ammo is very different indeed. And each shot flies... My lord do they fly.
That's because, with the Vortex range, the Nerf foam darts have been replaced with sturdy foam discs. Think mini soft(ish) frisbees and you can see where we're coming from.
Or rather, you may not. The new discs fly so accurately and far, you could be hit by one without seeing the assailant. Finally, Nerf has become a safe form of paintballing. And we applaud it.
The big boss of the range, the Nerf Vortex Nitron, is a mighty beast of a blaster. It's got a light-up tracking scope, a removable ammo clip that houses 20 of the new discs, and is powered so you can shoot them out at a fair rate of knots. And the distance it can fire over is huge, as we found out when editor Stuart shot an unwitting Linter across a good 20-30 feet.
It'll set you back around £45, but is essential if you're planning a Nerf battle. Your opponents will run screaming.
At £25, the Nerf Vortex Praxis is the pump-action shotgun of the series, with a removable shoulder butt and similarly separate clip. However, you'll have to manually pump each disc into the chamber for firing.
The Nerf Vortex Vigilon, expected to retail for £18, is a hand held automatic pistol. It features a built-in ammo clip that stores five discs and looks very Doom-esque (in our humble opinion).
Finally, the Nerf Vortex Proton will retail for around £13 and is a simple single-handed blaster that requires manual reloading. It comes with three discs, but we discovered during our hands-on that you can fire two shots at the same time.
The entire range is expected to hit toy stores both high street and online around September time.
At internetmatters.org parents can find all the advice they will need to keep their children safe online. Designed specifically for parents, the site offers a wealth of up-to-date, unbiased information and advice about how to deal with online safety.

Rodney Glassman on Gun Control |
While widely recognized today as a major political force and as America's foremost defender of Second Amendment rights, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has, since its inception, been the premier firearms education organization in the world. But our successes would not be possible without the tireless efforts and countless hours of service our nearly three million members have given to champion Second Amendment rights and support NRA programs.
The following ratings are based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionaire sent to all Congressional candidates; the NRA assigned a letter grade (with A+ being the highest and F being the lowest).

Detailed Description:
This randomized, Phase II trial will evaluate three treatment regimens in patients with previously untreated stage IIIB/IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and a performance status (PS) of 2. Patients will be randomized to either pemetrexed alone, pemetrexed and bevacizumab, or pemetrexed, carboplatin, and bevacizumab in a 1:1:1 fashion. All 3 regimens should be tolerable in poor performance status patients with advanced NSCLC. The 3-drug regimen (pemetrexed/carboplatin/bevacizumab) has been modified by lowering the dose of carboplatin, in order to minimize myelosuppression. This trial will be conducted at multiple study sites.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Netflix is buffing up its credentials as a popular way for parents to keep their kids entertained.
The subscription video provider said Tuesday that it will team up with DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. to create its first original cartoon series for kids.
The series will be based on DreamWorks' upcoming movie, "Turbo," which is about a snail who gets the power of super speed after getting in a freak accident.
The film, starring Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena and others, opens in theaters July 19. The series will be called "Turbo: F.A.S.T. (Fast Action Stunt Team)" and debut in December exclusively on Netflix.
Netflix has been adding original programming to its roster of movies, and debuted the original series "House of Cards" on Feb. 1.

The basic skills it covered, like normal distributions, are quite helpful and gave me insight into how data is analyzed. In later chapters, however, the material became difficult to comprehend due to a lack of detail. In some cases, the book passed altogether on even trying to explain topics and said to "use technology." While the sections that covered basics were thorough and easy to follow, I cannot recommend the more advanced material in this book.
read more
Example problems in the book were plentiful and practice questions in the book covered the material presented. Unlike the textbook practice material, however, I cannot recommend the content in the online companion (MyStatLab) that comes with this book, which was a terrible product. -
This book would be better if the price of it was not so expensive. Also, even without the cd the book was expensive.

I would change the amount of pages in the book because not all of the book is actually used for certain college courses. -
There was way too much useless information in this book. Could really take the course without the book and just buying the access code for mystatlab.

Great book for reference during the course but really learned more from the work that I had to do on mystatlab. -
This book, to me, was not very interesting. The examples were not very helpful. I took an online course that required me to learn everything on my own and I did not find the text helpful in self teaching. It may be more easily read with the use of attending class on campus.

It was an online statistics course. I had to teach myself and the book and MyMathlab were both used.

The shirt is very pretty and the fit is nice, except it's actually a sleeveless lace turtle neck. The turtleneck does not lay or stand flat around the neck. But otherwise, it is a nice top and a beautiful color. I purchased, the willow. I got the medium. Nice fit though.
