That's... interesting. Some of these people sound very well-organized and some of them sound like sugar-frosted flakes. It's good to know they are out there.
I guess I'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that joining almost any kind of group is going to mean the end of my marriage. Don't know how I feel about that. I wouldn't be opposed to being a single mother in a supportive community setting. I don't know how I feel about separating them from their father. I don't know if he would allow me to take them to something like this. And I'm NOT leaving them behind.
I understand that children are very much frowned on by the ecoconcerned set. I understand why. I see their point. But I don't want to be bitched at for having these kids. Having the third one might have been very irresponsible, but she's here now and that's not going to change by any agency of mine. I'm not going to wallow in guilt. I'm going to go forward trying to teach them to be as responsible as I know how.
What I can do, here and now, is develop my own skills and try to build some kind of network within my own community.
Housing developments are coming to Garfield-- thankfully they have been delayed by the economic climate, but it seems everyone with two pennies to rub together or the credit to borrow someone else's wants their little slice of rurban lakefront paradise (gag me with an outboard).
Still the community here is full of good ol' boys. About as ecologically concerned as Haliburton (sadly), but very big on self-reliance, on dealing with life on a neighbor-to-neighbor basis.
How do you talk to people about building up a community network??? Strengthenhing our ability to work together to take care of ourselves, and making myself and the kids a contributing and valuable part of 'ourselves'. Exchanging labor for learning, labor (at least in part) for goods (milk, eggs, produce, firewood), labor for labor???
Is that even a reasonable exchange??? DH says it is not, that I am delusional and that they will either laugh at me or take advantage of me. I don't believe I can use much of what DH says. He simply does not understand, and cannot (or will not) wrap his brain the validity of any model other than the conventional one.
My own experience is that my neighbors will do things FOR me (lady in distress syndrome) but they are not real big on doing stuff WITH me. I appreciate their help-- it gets my girl to school and groceries in when the car's broke down and it is very sweet, and repaying in coffee, beer, and company is fun-- but it does not move things forward.
I do not mean to play poor-me, only to state a fact. Other than money, labor is about all I have to offer. I have no unique equipment, no unique skills (I have plenty of skills, but they have been doing what I can do since I was in diapers and I am looking to them for the opportunity to learn more), no usable land.
Where do I go to learn about community-building??? It seems to me to be a happy medium-- I and the kids get our village, in which we are contributors rather than welfare cases, and Daddy and the kids get to keep each other even if he does not want to participate on a scale beyond doing the dishes when I'm not available (which I appreciate and he seems to think is heroic).
heh,heh,see MC what you're thinking is precisely what I've been talking about all these years here,thing is people have a hard time realizing that in many ways they've been doing what we've been preaching all along!See part of the problem is we're lazy as a society.We are.If any of us can get out of doing(labor)whats necessary to survive comfortably,we'll do it.JEM here made a good point.Money is basically a paper exchange for the value of one's labor and thats all it is.It's why gas costs so much,it gets you out of doing a whole heck of a lot more to get to the point you need to than it would if you had to walk the same distance.Thats what you pay for.No you're not delusional,you're right on the money pardon the pun.Problem is everyone else is!What I mean is many are charging more for the value of their labor that what the labor really is worth,basically more than the market will bear.What I do not get is that those good 'ol boys,if they were really into the self sufficiency thing,would learn to run their atv's,sleds,outboard motors etc on their own homemade gas like their granddaddys did.Now thats real patriotism IMO.We're giving the value of our labor over to a group of people that fundamentally disagrees about what we in America stand for as a society.Does that make sense to you?When you run into a situation like we're in now is when it's time to get back to basics.You may not 'think' you have valuable skills but common sense these days is of the greatest value of all because not too many these days seem to have any.Community building starts with you,then your kids,then your begrudged other half,then with your friends,then with your friends friends,then with your dog and you cat,well..you get the picture.You dont need much,just a bunch of like-minded *individuals*.Thats what makes real community,equal give(in one individuals mind)to equal take(in the other individuals mind)..when both can say.Fair enough,it's done.
Forgive me.........I don't know your situation well enough to comment legitimately but that is part of the problem with all forums. So, here goes.....................
It does not sound good to break up a family to join a community. Feels like a move contrary to it's own nature. Of course, maybe you are looking for an excuse to leave your husband and that is your decision. But sacrificing one relationship for a larger unknown one is going in the wrong direction and doing so blindfolded as well. In my opinion.
My suggestion would be to find a community that you like and visit with the family on weekends. See if it 'catches on' with hubby and the kids. Bear in mind, that your husband is an equal partner - not superior, not inferior - but definitely equal when it comes to family matters. The only REAL decision you can make without him is whether to stay with him or not. After that, it is all EQUAL - legally, anyway.
Secondly, any community that frowns on kids is doomed. Stay away. Kids are the backbone of the community. The are what sustain it, they are the glue. Whether you have 2, 3 or ten - makes no difference. We might wonder about when the fetus-machine will stop but we would welcome each and every one of the kids (quietly hoping that the parents each were sensible in other respects of their lives, perhaps).
As for community building........well, we have seen a lot of such so-called builders. They aren't. They are, usually, just talkers. You want to build community for real? Then find out the skill (the one that you don't have) that is needed in the community and go get it. That's right. Learn to weld if you have to. DO NOT BE or even PLAY AT the lady in distress syndrome. It wears thin very quickly. Real participation is work and skill. Doing not saying. In fact, if you were a skilled deaf mute, you are more welcome than is a charismatic beauty in distress (well, the beauty in distress works for a short while even in a real community but it wears thinner with the women much faster).
Our women look good. They are healthy and fit. But their hands are tough. Their skin is weathered. They don't have giant, white teeth like piano keys. They have real muscles. They gave birth in tents, fixed outboards while drifting at sea, chopped wood for their sick neighbours and built their own houses. Our women carry heavy things, work with tools, get dirty and get things done. 'Ladies in distress' have minimal appeal to anyone - even the bachelors. Drop the idea of having the role of community builder and adopt the role of becoming a real builder of practical things, or a practitioner of a needed service, or a producer of necessary goods.
Think about it.
JD-- Man, you ain't kidding. Taking a family apart just to take a chance on starting a new one strikes me as avoidant, selfish, and stupid. It's running away hoping it will be easier somewhere else. If I wanted an excuse to get out, being 900 miles from elderly grandparents and an aging father would be enough.
And LIDS is revolting-- to anyone who has survival in adverse situations in mind, and to me as well. Where's the self-respect in that??? Nowhere. That is what nauseates me about this situation-- I will take them doing FOR me if I have to because it is what gets stuff done, but that is not what I want to be. Even before I consider the fact that it will shortly wear thin--- being the "lady in distress" makes me want to puke. IMO, if that is all I can do I had ought to drop dead and leave the resources I consume for someone else.
What do I do when I offer to help and that offer is turned aside, apparently out of some sick Southern chivalry???? Case in point: I drive a Cavalier. Gets really killer gas milage, is paid for, serves the purpose about 350 days out of the year. Going to trade it in on a 4WD when I can pay for a reliable one out of pocket (about 2 years down the road). My neighbor drives a Jeep. I ask him to take my daughter to the top of the hill in the mornings when it's too icy to get the car up there. He's glad to do it-- threatens the Wrath of Dave if he sees me walking the little ones up there instead. I'm very appreciative. Bring him beer and hang out with him-- he likes that, having recently retired and lost his wife and being lonely.
But. I offer to help cut and stack wood-- things I can do with one eye shut-- and, "Oh, that's awright. I can handle it. That's no place for a lady." "Dave, man, I ain't a lady. I'm a broad. I'd like to help. It's the least I can do." "Aw, that's awright. I've got it under control."
If I keep insisting, I think I become a pest and "all talk." Do I show up next morning with chalk in my pocket, the tot in gloves, the baby all fed and in a car seat, and the saw on my back and work gloves on and just start stacking??? Am I getting in someone's face if I just jump in, or is that what's required???
I want to work. I am-- literally, at this point, with how bad the depression's getting-- dying to work. It's the only thing outside of chemical sedation that's going to help. It seems that my help will not be accepted because I've got two little ones and a vagina. That's got to be the reason. Even if it were my alleged inherent stupidity-- and it's not-- they haven't known me long enough to have seen it. How in the fart do I get around that???? Splitting and stacking my own dang wood ain't enough to prove I can, will, and should???
Other thought--- There has to be a community builder or organizer or whatever somewhere. Otherwise, how do people connect up with each other???? "Joe has goats, wants to go away for a weekend. Tom has cask, wants milk. Rita is broke and lives in a rented trailer, but wants to learn to keep goats. Suzy wants to buy milk and learn about goats." "Fran has chickens, needs help. Phil wants to learn about chickens. Sally has money and wants to buy eggs. Dan knows about chickens, has no place to keep them." "Community organizer" is just a 50-cent word for the person who tells Tom and Suzy and Rita that they might want to give Joe a call, or tells Joe that he might get money from Tom, help from Rita, and both from Suzy. A walking, talking (and working, if they've got any balls) classified directory and phone book.
I guess it's sort of the same question you've got (and part of how it ended up on your thread). People can benefit from each other. The skills, the goods, and the market are pre-existing. How do you get them to work together, and let them know that others want to work with them as well????
Put shortly. I don't want the role of community builder. Interpersonal skills are among my weakest points. I am conscious (and self-conscious) of that fact. I don't like it; I still see myself as stupid and I'm scared. But someone has to do it if this going to progress beyond being a place full of disparate individuals. Case in point: The girls up at the real estate office organized a food pantry and connected a guy with chickens and no money up with people who have money and want eggs. The response has been overwhelming. Over 100 families use the pantry and about 30 (us included) contribute to it. Eggs sell faster than the chickens can lay 'em.
I don't want the job. But everyone benefits if someone does it. Or, at least they do if the someone doing it is going to walk what they talk, even if they have to break trail. It's worthless without walk, but talk does have a purpose. I have some ideas. That kind of makes it my job to organize them. Or at least to run them by the people who are doing the organizing.
So what if you think you're stupid,guess what everyone else is too so you're not suprising anyone there.As with your husband ;my parents (and I know you've heard it before)used to say 'Well,shyte or get off the pot,are you with me or not?.if you dont like what you hear you can decide what you want to do from there.It's not like you're bursting thru the door and say 'OK Honey we're off to the commune'no you have given them plenty of advanced warning of your plans from what it sounds like.I myself am not a communal person,I'll help out but I like to be left to myself,and so here I am.LIDS dont ever get very far..
A lot of the reason, IMO, people don't like to accept help is fear. It is so much easier to do something for somebody your way than to have to work with them and get along. You have to have patience, good communication skills, and willingness to compromise - no matter what the job is. Even with cutting and stacking wood. He has a way of doing it and if you come over you may want to change it and boss him around and he may not be able to stand up to you. Having you there would put him on a time limit, plus where would your kids be? He would also feel responsible for them. You might tell him that the excercise would really help, it lifts your mood... but again. A lot of people would prefer to help you and have you "owe" them than accept anything in exchange.
The problems you are having in your relationship and with the neighbors will be the same if you tried to go somewhere else. All I can suggest is keep on, keeping on. More and more people are waking up and starting to think earthwise. Keep learning and keep trying. Having small children is hard, they need you so much right now and it wears you down, but they have to be your main priority. I sincerely hope you don't divorce, the kids need their dad as much as you and it is really hard on them when they lose a parent.
Community starts with you. Be friendly, know your neighbors and speak, even when they aren't friendly back and look for places you might be able to volunteer. Work on the networking angle as much as possible. Winter is an ugly depressing time, and it sounds like it is getting you down, but spring is ahead.... Hang in there.
Good response, MC. Good attitude. I think you'll be fine. But, listen to Neene and Davh. Sensible people.
As for my hints......they go something like this: men have egos (which is good and bad) and they will almost automatically say, "Nah! I'm good. No problem." It is one of the reasons so many men have so few friends as they age. They want to sound strong and independent. Basically it is macho-ego in a "I can handle it" kind of way. An offer of work help to a man is (often) saying, "You look weak."
None of this matters very much since there are so many ways to 'balance the books' and allow for the 'dignity' factor to remain intact. First off, the books don't have to be balanced right away. Living in community means that the general give and take is out of balance now and then - it's only natural - but, overall, it eventually gets pretty equalized in a harmonious community (there are always little debit and credit accounts that cause a bit of friction, tho).
People come to know the takers, the givers and the 'keep-it-square'-types over time. But it takes years for this to become common knowledge because no real accounting is done except in the heart and the subconscious. So, relax.
Having said that, some needs are also obvious. Maybe Dave hasn't had fresh baking/canning...whatever.......in a long time. Maybe Dave has a small place and when his guests visit, he could use an extra room. Maybe he needs a sit-down Sunday dinner now and then. Typically, the macho, independent types can easily accept quid pro quo so long as it takes a feminine form. Like cooking, laundry, sewing and gardening. Women, generally, are more social and have less of this 'obstacle' to overcome.
Of course, if you can weld or cast iron or do fine finishing work and he can't - that is fine, too. But traditional roles are easier to play at first. Not essential - just a bit easier. Our community could really use a hunter who can dress fresh deer and, quite frankly, gender is not an issue but we kind of expect that the person who eventually steps up will be male. If they are female, it will not be a problem. NOT having the knowledge to do the job is the problem.
I, personally, am not so much community oriented - not on a group scale, anyway. I have a legal background and most people know that. I have a business history, too. Plus I write. So people are all the time coming for help in matters of that nature. And, of course, I give the assistance freely. So, that is my role in the community. NOT a party-type of guy, not a group-maker. I am simply a resource that everyone knows about and feels they can use. If the help asked for is small or even medium, it is free. If it is a bigger commitment, I say, "Pay me what you can or give me eggs or fix my diesel or just remember the favour - it's all OK with me."
Having said that, the road on the other island needed repairs (we all use that road) and no one was addressing it. I decided that I would. I told everyone that I was going to fix the road on a certain date and that I had rented some equipment and bought a few truckloads of gravel. I didn't organize anything. I just went with Sally and my neighbour to do the job. 34 people showed up! 4 who didn't show sent money. The point: NO committees, no one was put on the spot. Everyone knew about it. Those who came did so because they wanted to. Regardless, Sally and I and my neighbours would have gotten it done. But that was 'community' and it was a natural manifestation of it.
I have been thinking about this post and the more I thought the more I realized I had something else to say:
"Put shortly. I don't want the role of community builder. Interpersonal skills are among my weakest points. I am conscious (and self-conscious) of that fact. I don't like it; I still see myself as stupid and I'm scared. But someone has to do it if this going to progress beyond being a place full of disparate individuals."
Community building is like politics, the ones who want it probably shouldn't be doing it. Do not get down on yourself - it takes time and patience and the ability to be supportive and nonjudgemental to do so. Community begins at a grassroots level and in today's world of instant gratification and bigger is better no one seems willing to try to start and follow through on the small steps and open themselves up to the personal price that the job requires. Sometimes the only way you learn something is by stepping up to a job that nobody else wants but that needs someone to at least start it. There is a poem they found on the wall of one of Mother Teresa's orphanages that I am going to put on here because I think it applies to community building:
People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; … forgive them anyway.If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; … be kind anyway.If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; … succeed anyway.If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; … be honest and frank anyway.What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; … build anyway.If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; … be happy anyway.The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; … do good anyway.Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; … give the world the best you've got anyway.You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
I hope you're doing ok, M.C. Exercise is a great thing to help lift your mood and if you can't help someone by chopping and stacking wood then make sure you take the kids out for a walk and stretch your muscles and get the blood circulating, (and definitely say hi to anyone you see regardless of how grumpy they are!), that will keep your mood up as much as anything. And don't let yourself get overextended which is an easy thing to do with small children.
Yes, OK. The computer croaked without warning (DH broke it, actually, but at least he broke it trying to do something with it, and I got weeks without the blasted thing, so I'm soooo OK with that). Still frustrated, but OK.
Hmmm. What skills are missing around here??? We're drowning in welders and machinists and carpenters. I can find 3 without walking a mile. There are a goodly many mechanics I think. Obviously we don't need anyone to work wood, or even any woodlot flunkies-- just people to buy it.
We don't have a blacksmith. We don't have (to the best of my knowledge) a tanner. I don't know of anyone who can make cordage or fiber or fabric, though I know a lot of the women can sew well enough to take it from there and suspect that they would make good weavers.
What they would be doesn't matter for the purposes of finding a niche for me to fill, does it???? Only what IS.
I know there isn't an herbalist within 15 miles. I'd love to take that one on. I'm also afraid to. I don't think medicinal herbalism is something you want to learn from books.
I'd like to start a community on my 44 acre ranch. I really admire the Hutterites, Amish and Conservative Mennonites. I'd like to find people of like beliefs We could pool our labor and resources on the ranch, and people could work to earn the cash they need that can't be earned from the farm. I'm near San Antonio, Texas. It's warm much of the year, so the growing season is long. It's not humid like the Deep South or Midwest. Contact me if you're interested @ email@example.com
I think almost every week about joining some kind of self-reliant community. I hate the modern American culture; it makes me sick and I want to spit on it, turn my back, and walk away. How desperately I want it depends on how abjectly frightened and miserably frustrated I am.
In a relatively good mood??? It would be nice, God would it be nice, but it's probably not necessary for survival.
Things going badly??? These kids are going to starve if I don't get them in somewhere. It should have been done, yesterday, at any price.
The reality is probably somewhere in the middle. I will post more on this subject when the baby is not jumping up and down on my lap screaming to get back in front of the fire.

Amid trade rumors, Gallardo to face D-backs
Crew righty has been linked to number of clubs, including Arizona
Yovani Gallardo's name has been thrown around like loose debris amid the annual gusts of trade winds.
The Brewers right-hander, who has been linked to a number of teams, will nonetheless take the hill for Milwaukee in Thursday's opener of a four-game set at Chase Field in Arizona, against a D-backs team that has clearly been established as a potential suitor for his services.
"It definitely is different [seeing the rumors]," Gallardo said. "The way I look at it is, that's how this game is. The only thing that changes is the names that are being brought up."
Gallardo stressed that he is trying to maintain a clear mind.
"The minute you start thinking about other things, like -- 'Am I going to be here next week? Am I going to be here in two days?' -- it's one of those things that [distracts you]," Gallardo said. "It's a little bit different. I wouldn't say that it's tough. The only thing I can do is go out there and pitch. There's certain things that you really can't control. It's out of my hands."
Gallardo (7-8, 4.85 ERA) has struggled after a string of three straight mid-June starts in which he did not allow an earned run. In his last three starts, he has posted a 10.38 ERA over 13 innings, allowing 23 hits and nine walks.
The 27-year-old fared a bit better his last time out, as he limited the Mets to four runs in six innings for his seventh win.
"The thing is, I've been feeling good," Gallardo said. "When I get into trouble, the ball has been up in the zone. That's really the main thing, even in that last start against the Mets. … I've been feeling good for three or four starts now, and that's a good start. Now you just have to get everything working together -- mechanics, release point, rhythm."
Gallardo will be opposed by D-backs southpaw Wade Miley (5-7, 4.06 ERA), who had his best start of the season on Saturday, when he held the Rockies to one run in eight innings for the win.
Brewers: Outfielders expected back for series opener
Ryan Braun and Norichika Aoki are expected to return to the starting lineup on Thursday. Both players sat out Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Reds. Aoki, who was scratched from the lineup before Tuesday's game, is battling a stiff left elbow. Manager Ron Roenicke is easing Braun back into the lineup as he returns from an inflamed nerve in his right hand, which caused him to miss 22 games.
D-backs: Chavez to bench duty
Eric Chavez was a late scratch from Tuesday's lineup and never thought about playing on Wednesday. The 35-year-old third baseman is dealing with stiffness in his right hip and is available off the bench.
"It's OK, but we're just so close to the All-Star break," said Chavez, who is having a renaissance year with a .303 average and .876 OPS. "So I'm going to try to be careful."
Martin Prado got the start at third on Wednesday.
Worth noting
• The D-backs swept a three-game set in Milwaukee in early April.

Rated 3.8 out of 5�by 26
Rated 1 out of 5�by cleome73 Poor quality
Bad news- After using these chairs 6 times, the bag is ripped half way down the side. The metal holders on the back rub against the chair fabric so that the seams are tearing out also.
Good news- the umbrellas do stay up. We have 2 chairs, and on windy days looped the umbrellas fasteners together for more support.

great product sturdy and lightweight umbrella is handy

Rated 1 out of 5�by NotyetHappy Bought it, Returned it
This chair is original and should be a good beach chair. I saw many reviews on the web about failures and thought they were old news. I just opened up the chair and saw fabric on the front side of the seat that did not get attached by the stitching. Sloppy production and the sewing looks like there are may opportunities for the sewing to be off.
I wanted to like/keep the chair, but seeing the lack of quality control in a new chair, I'll keep looking for some other manufacturer for my prime beach chair.

Rated 5 out of 5�by boots859 Great chair!
I originally purchased this chair for an upcoming trip to the beach. I can tell that I'll be using it for way more than just that...I think it's great! I don't find it hard to get out of, though I could see that being an issue for someone with bad knees, perhaps. It does what a chair should do, and comfortably at that...so five stars for this particular chair.

Rated 5 out of 5�by Ronnie Great Beach Chair!
This chair is awesome. I can sit at the water's edge to watch my grandchildren in the surf without being in the direct sun. Or when I've just had too much sun, but I'm not ready to leave the beach, I'm comfortable undercover!

Rated 4 out of 5�by kbinrr Like it!
I only used the chair recently on a trip to the beach, but it was great for the short time I've used it. The umbrella seemed sturdy in the beach breezes on Padre Island. The coverage of the umbrella is good for your head, chest area, but is not large enough for total body shade if that's what you want. The shade is just what I was looking for. The chair was comfortable and really like the padded arms. I'm no spring chicken but was able to get up without too much struggle, with the chair being able to support my weight upon rising. I love the color and the convenience of having it in a bag with a strap. It will hopefully be useful for many more beach trips to come.

Rated 5 out of 5�by Tbsplash Chair and Umbrella in One!
I got this chair for beach volleyball tournament (spectating) and so far so good. It is comfortable, portable, and practical. The first one I brought home was missing the umbrella so had to make a trip back to Dick's but they were very accommodating.

Rated 4 out of 5�by Larry Good Overall
Light weight, does its job. Only minor complaint is the seat almost touches the ground, making it hard to get up
May 14, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5�by MJ62 Cute but no comfortable
I bought this for my 17 year old, thinking he could keep it in his car for his summer adventures. He said it was not comfortable and would not use it :-( Apparently, the bar in the back, dug into his back. Too bad because I thought the umbrella feature was convenient.

this wiki
A stardate is a type of date expressed as a decimal number, e.g. 7412.6.
Stardates were used in certain cultures as far back as the 2150s, although the United Earth government had not adopted the system yet. In 2154, Degra, a Xindi-Primate, sent a coded message to Enterprise containing a stardate for when Enterprise should rendezvous with Degra's ship. T'Pol was able to calculate that the given stardate was three days away, indicating that Vulcans also had an understanding of stardates at that time. (ENT: "Damage")
When adopted by Earth during the next hundred years, stardates began to be used in many contexts instead of Gregorian calendar dates. At the time of Richard Robau's murder, the digits to the left of the decimal separator were equal to the Gregorian calendar year: Robau died in 2233 on stardate 2233.04. This method was used in the alternate reality at least through 2258. (Star Trek) By 2265 in the prime reality, a more complex relationship had been established between stardates and the Gregorian calendar. (TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before")
Stardates did not replace clock time or everyday units for expressing larger timespans, such as days, weeks, months, years, centuries, or millennia, and they do not apply retroactively instead of Gregorian or Julian calendars either: for example, the first contact with Vulcans still took place on April 5, 2063, not on a stardate. (TOS: "The Naked Time" remastered; Star Trek: First Contact) The following table outlines the progress of stardates over time:
In an alternate timeline, the combat date replaced the stardate as the dating system used by Starfleet during their war with the Klingon Empire. This was indicative of the militaristic nature of Starfleet in this timeline. (TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise")
Background information
Stardates were first portrayed in TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before", the second pilot for the series. Dave Eversole notes that the first draft of the teleplay (dated May 27, 1965) contains no stardates, although there is a reference to "Captain's Log, Report 197." [1] Kirk mentions "stardate 1312.4" by the final revis'd draft (July 8, 1965), which also asks for "C-1277.1 to 1313.7" to appear on his gravestone. (The letter "C" and the regular increase of other stardates in the script raise the possibility that 1277.1 was intended to be the date Kirk was promoted to captain and/or assumed command of the Enterprise, not his date of birth.)
Gene Roddenberry: The Myth and the Man Behind Star Trek
The pilot was written by Samuel A. Peeples, who was interviewed by journalist Joel Engel for Gene Roddenberry: The Myth and the Man Behind Star Trek. [2] Replying to a newsgroup question on stardates, Engel quoted information from his book:
"For the starship captain's log entry narrations, Roddenberry wanted to devise a futuristic measurement of time reference. He called (Sam) Peeples (whom Roddenberry had contacted early on for help in learning about science fiction, a subject he knew nothing about; it was Peeples who wrote "Where No Man Has Gone Before," the pilot that sold ST). The two men had a few drinks while brainstorming, and soon began chuckling over their imaginative 'stardate' computations. 'We tried to set up a system that would be unidentified unless you knew how we did it,' Peeples says.
"They marked off sections on a pictorial depiction of the known universe and extrapolated how much earth time would elapse when traveling between given points, taking into account that the Enterprise's warp engines would be violating Einstein's theory that nothing could exceed the speed of light. They concluded that the 'time continuum' would therefore vary from place to place, and that earth time may actually be lost in travel. 'So the stardate on Earth would be one thing, but the stardate on Alpha Centauri would be different,' Peeples says. 'We thought this was hilarious, because everyone would say, "How come this date is before that date when this show is after that show?" The answer was because you were in a different sector of the universe.' [3]
The Star Trek Guide
The following instructions to writers were transcribed from the series bible Star Trek Guide, third revision, dated April 17, 1967 (page 25). Their original date of composition and the author are unclear, but the sample stardates are consistent with the range from the second pilot.
We invented "Stardate" to avoid continually mentioning Star Trek's century (actually, about two hundred years from now), and getting into arguments about whether this or that would have developed by then. Pick any combination of four numbers plus a percentage point, use it as your story's stardate. For example, 1313.5 is twelve o'clock noon of one day and 1314.5 would be noon of the next day. Each percentage point (sic) is roughly equivalent to one-tenth of one day. The progression of stardates in your script should remain constant but don't worry about whether or not there is a progression from other scripts. Stardates are a mathematical formula which varies depending on location in the galaxy, velocity of travel, and other factors, can vary widely from episode to episode.
What is called a "percentage point" is actually the tenths digit. While this 24-hour increasing stardate with noon at .5 wasn't always adhered to within episodes, the initial four digits weren't selected quite as randomly as described here. An overall increase with time can be observed in the above table of stardates, from 1312.4 in the second pilot to 5928.5 in the final episode of the series. The Animated Series and the movies continued the general trend, despite a number of variations in the rates of increase.
The Making of Star Trek
Although much of the information from the Star Trek Guide was used in Stephen E. Whitfield's book The Making of Star Trek (conceived in May 1967 and published in September 1968), the above specifics of selecting stardate numbers weren't included. However, the author did interview Gene Roddenberry on the subject, who provided a more elaborate rationalization for stardate behavior:
In the beginning, I invented the term "star date" simply to keep from tying ourselves down to 2265 A.D., or should it be 2312 A.D.? I wanted us well into the future but without arguing approximately which century this or that would have been invented or superseded. When we began making episodes, we would use a star date such as 2317 one week, and then a week later when we made the next episode we would move the star date up to 2942, and so on. Unfortunately, however, the episodes are not aired in the same order in which we filmed them. So we began to get complaints from the viewers, asking, "How come one week the star date is 2891, the next week it's 2337, and then the week after it's 3414?"
In answering these questions, I came up with the statement that "this time system adjusts for shifts in relative time which occur due to the vessel's speed and space warp capability. It has little relationship to Earth's time as we know it. One hour aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise at different times may equal as little as three Earth hours. The star dates specified in the log entry must be computed against the speed of the vessel, the space warp, and its position within our galaxy, in order to give a meaningful reading." Therefore star date would be one thing at one point in the galaxy and something else again at another point in the galaxy.
I'm not quite sure what I meant by that explanation, but a lot of people have indicated it makes sense. If so, I've been lucky again, and I'd just as soon forget the whole thing before I'm asked any further questions about it.
Star Trek 30 Years Special Collector's Edition
Star Trek 30 Years Special Collector's Edition, published in 1996 by Paramount Pictures, states on page 81:
Few Star Trek topics generate as much heated debate as the stardate system, the time calculation used by the United Federation of Planets which was introduced to the classic series by Gene Roddenberry, who borrowed the notion from the Julian date currently used by astronomers. Developed by Joseph Scaliger (who named his dating system after his father, Julius Caesar Saliger), the Julian time calculation measures the number of days elapsed since 1 Jan. 4713 BC, the date derived by Joseph Justus. In the case of the 30th anniversary of the air date for the original series (8 Sept. 1996), that's 2,450,335 days. To make it easier, astronomers only use the last five digits - making 50335 the Julian date for the Star Trek anniversary. For Star Trek, Roddenberry added a single digit after the decimal point (50335.2) to represent one of the 10 time measurements in a 24-hour period...Roddenberry borrowed the five-digit Julian date and shortened it to four digits and renamed it "stardate."
The Next Generation era
The teleplay of TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint" dated April 13, 1987 contains stardates ranging from 42353.7 to 42372.5. (Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion CD) This was changed to 41153.7-41174.2 on the air, consistent with the following description in Star Trek: The Next Generation Writer's/Director's Guide of March 23, 1987 (page 13):
A stardate is a five-digit number followed by a decimal point and one more digit. Example: "41254.7." The first two digits of the stardate are always "41." The 4 stands for 24th century, the 1 indicates first season. The additional three leading digits will progress unevenly during the course of the season from 000 to 999. The digit following the decimal point is generally regarded as a day counter.
Under this system, 1,000 stardate units elapse in approximately one year, since that was the normal timespan between two seasons of TNG. The 'century' digit was elaborated upon as early as TNG: "Future Imperfect", where the imaginary Jean-Luc Riker asks the computer to display his birthday party of stardate 58416, less than sixteen years in the future of 2367. While the '4' may have been inspired by the 24th century, in-universe it changes once a decade.
The writers of the Star Trek Chronology further developed the system by having a calendar year start at 000 and end at 999, although this does not fit all references in the show, such as a Diwali celebration around stardate 44390, too early in the year according to the simplified system. (TNG: "Data's Day") Stardate 41986.0 was in 2364 according to TNG: "The Neutral Zone", hence the simplified system assumes that stardates 41xxx.x covered the entire year 2364, stardates 42xxx.x the entire year 2365 and so forth. As stated in Star Trek Chronology (page 95):
The year 2323 works out as the zero point for the system of stardates developed for Star Trek: The Next Generation, assuming that the beginning of year 2364 (the first season of Star Trek: The Next Generation) was stardate 41000, and that stardates progress at 1000 units per year. In other words, under the Next Generation system of stardates, January 1, 2323 would seem to correspond to stardate 0. This probably shouldn't be taken too seriously, because Star Trek's stardates have never been too internally consistent, but we're mentioning it here because it's kinda fun.
The second digit increased every TV season in other spin-offs as well, even after TNG had ended. Since DS9 premiered during the sixth season of TNG and was set in exactly the same year (2369), stardates on DS9 ranged from 46379.1 to 52861.3. Likewise, the first season of Voyager (2371) would have been the eighth season of TNG had it continued, so Voyager stardates ranged from 48315.6 to 54973.4. In at least one draft of the script, Star Trek Nemesis had a stardate of 47844.9, but the initial digits were changed to '56' for the film, consistent with Riker having been Picard's "trusted right arm for fifteen years." However, stardates of events prior to TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint", but not so far back as the time of TOS, do not always conform to this method of counting. For example, in TNG: "Dark Page", the stardate for an event which took place 42 years before 47254.1 is given as 30620.1, which, according to the standard method of counting used after "Encounter at Farpoint", should only be 17 years earlier.
In addition to the overall rate of approximately 1,000 units per year, many episodes confirm the 24-hour stardate unit which was first mentioned in the TOS bible, with midnight at .0 and noon at .5. According to Appendix I of Star Trek Chronology, "As with the original series, an increase of a single unit within an episode corresponds to about 24 hours, even though this is inconsistent with a 365-day year." It is especially noticeable when the time of day is shown next to a stardate fraction, as demonstrated in the table below:
Stardate and time | Fraction converted to h:m:s | Source |
42605.57 13:40:23 | 13:40:48 | Donald Varley's log (TNG: "Contagion") |
42592.72 17:16 | 17:16:48 | Log from the future Enterprise (TNG: "Time Squared") |
44673.9 22:30:59 | 21:36 to midnight | Captain Chantal Zaheva's log (TNG: "Night Terrors") |
40164.7 17:29:46 (19:29, 22:15) | 16:48 to 19:12 | Logs of the USS Victory (TNG: "Identity Crisis") |
44623.9 22:26:09 | 21:36 to midnight | A video showing Pardek (TNG: "Unification I") |
46154.4 10:37:41 | 09:36 to noon | Riker's clock (TNG: "Schisms") |
2823.6 16:23:00 | 14:24 to 16:48 | TOS: "The Galileo Seven" (remastered) |
Although the vast majority of stardates are given with only one digit following the decimal point, the captain's log in TNG: "Code of Honor" is recorded with two digits (41235.25 and 41235.32) and other references have two, three or even four digits, as in TNG: "The Child", where a stardate of 42073.1435 is seen on a viewscreen in the Observation Lounge. Commenting on the graphic, Mike Okuda explained: "I always thought that the numbers after the decimal were fractions of a 24 hour day, meaning that .1435 would be about 3:20 in the morning. Which is really early in the day for a doctor's appointment..." [4] In VOY: "Relativity", Seven of Nine travels back in time from 52861.274 to 49123.5621. Occasionally there are no digits, such as when "today's date" is given as stardate 47988. (TNG: "All Good Things...")
There are also cases in TNG where stardates appear to be non-linear or that can be reverted to previous values. In one noticeable example Tasha Yar's death occurs around 41601.3 (TNG: "Skin of Evil") however she was alive in episodes with greater stardates such as "The Big Goodbye", set in stardate 41997.7. Such episodes were of course filmed before Skin of Evil and Denise Crosby's departure from the show.
Alternate reality
Stardates from the latest film and associated merchandise were developed by screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. According to Orci, they "used the system where, for example, 2233.45 or whatever means 23rd century, 33rd year of that century, and the .45 indicates the day of the year out of 365 days." [5] During a Q&A session, Orci restated that a stardate is "the year, as in 2233, with the month and day expressed as a decimal point from .1 to .365 (as in the 365 days of the year)." [6] A similar reply was posted on his Twitter account: "star date=standard year, with decimal representing day of year from 1-365." [7]
Orci never said whether leap years end at .366, which would be expected if the digits before the decimal point correspond to Gregorian calendar years. When asked about the scripted stardates 2230.06 and 2233.04, with only one leading zero instead of two or none, he replied that it could have been an error. [8] Except for the separator and uncertain leading zeroes, the new stardates are similar to the ordinal dates of ISO 8601. According to that standard, the first day of 2259 would be written as 2259-001.
The alternate reality adaptation of "Where No Man Has Gone Before" began with a stardate in the new style, but the second part of that comic reverted to 1313.1, consistent with the range of its prime reality counterpart, and the same approach was taken with "The Galileo Seven" reimagining, which began on stardate 2821.5. After that story was finished, writer Mike Johnson commented at TrekMovie.com: "Speaking of typos... Going forward we are using the new Stardate system." [9] Accordingly, later issues no longer reused stardate ranges from prime reality episodes. The table below shows only new-style stardates from the film and other sources.
Stardate | Event |
2230.06 | Spock's birth in a deleted scene which opens with the superimposed stardate. The number is also in the script and in the comic adaptation. The year is from the Star Trek Chronology. |
2233.04 | Shortly after Nero's arrival. Robau says "2233-zero-four," written as 2233.04 in the script and in the official comic adaptation. The year is from the Star Trek Chronology. |
2258.42 | Shortly after the destruction of Vulcan. |
2258.? | "Star Trek Ongoing, Issue 1": Scotty isn't sure about the decimals, but comments that the Nero incident was "ages" ago. In the second part of the story, Kirk has "been a starship captain for less than a year". |
2258.56 | "Mirrored, Part 1" |
2258.241 | "The Return of the Archons, Part 1" |
2259.23 | "The Redshirt's Tale" |
2259.155 | "The Truth About Tribbles, Part 1": Kirk, Spock and Scotty met on Delta Vega "several months ago." Applying Orci's comments, stardate 2258.42 from the film was 15 months and 24 days before this stardate. |
2387 | The Jellyfish is commissioned according to the ship's computer. Stardates in the 643xx range are used in "Countdown, Number One". |
Deviations from production norms
Stardates would occassionally deviate from the prevailing production norm throughout all of the Star Trek incarnations. Examples include:
- In TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before", the stardates within the episode progress by 1.4, from 1312.4 to 1313.8, in what could not be more than a few days, yet the birth stardates of Gary Mitchell and Elizabeth Dehner are given as 1087.7 (onscreen dossier age: 23) and 1089.5 (onscreen dossier age: 21), respectively.
- The animated episode "The Magicks of Megas-Tu" set in 2269 has a stardate of 1254.4. This is lower than any of the TOS episodes, including the first Kirk-era episode, TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before" set in 2265 which had a stardate of 1312.4.
- In TNG: "Datalore", Riker dropped one of the numbers in his log, stating "Stardate 4124.5".
- In VOY: "Unimatrix Zero, Part II", set during stardate 54014.4, Tuvok mentions that his date of birth is stardate 38774, but he was born in 2264.
- VOY: "Homestead" gives a stardate of 54868.6, which would suggest a date sometime in late 2377, but in fact the episode is set on the 315th anniversary of the first contact with Vulcans, which works out to April 5, 2378.
Franz Joseph stardates
Most of the stardates in Star Fleet Technical Manual are calendar dates of the 1970s, formatted YYMM.DD. This can be inferred by comparing the stated dates of first printing (November 1975) and the 20th anniversary edition (September 1986) with the corresponding stardates, 7511.01 and 8609.01. According to StarTrek.com, "By using the year, month, day approach, the day the first episode of Star Trek aired, September 8, 1966, would appear as 6609.08." [X]wbm
FASA Reference Stardates
FASA's Star Trek: The Role Playing Game released in the early 1980s used "reference stardates" similar to those used by Franz Joseph.Reference stardate (β) However, they prefexid a digit and a slash to represent the century, starting with the year 2000, so January 1, 2000, was 0/0001.01 and the Organian Peace Treaty was signed on 2/0801.24, or January 24, 2208, according to Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology. 2208 SFC#2208 (β) Preceding centuries are negative, so the first episode of TOS aired -1/6609.08.
In the novel Where Sea Meets Sky, Captain Christopher Pike has to use conversion formulas to convert stardates to the Gregorian Calendar for his friend "Nowan" from the bar "The Captain's Table".
In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Millennium novel The War of the Prophets, the stardate system is based on hyperdimensional distance averaging.

Linotype Syntax™ Serif is the serif typeface that complements Linotype Syntax, both created by Swiss type designer Hans Eduard Meier in 2000. With this new design, Meier has at last given shape and structure to the invisible muse that inspired him in the 1950s when he conceived his monoline sans serif based on humanist or Oldstyle letterforms. The calm legibility of this workhorse text family is accented by Meier's signature of subtle dynamic movement, making it ideal for longer texts in books and magazines. Linotype Syntax Serif has six weights from light to black, with matching italics, as well as small caps and Old style Figures, for a total of 30 weights. It combines harmoniously with the other Syntax typefaces, Linotype Syntax™ and Linotype Syntax™ Letter . L
Linotype Syntax Serif supports 107 different languages such as Spanish, English, Portuguese, German and French in Latin scripts. (Please note that not all languages are available for all formats.)

SEIU Considering Thanksgiving Eve Walkout At LAX
Will they? Won't they? Is this another threat by a union to get what they want?
(CBS LA) Employees at Los Angeles International Airport were considering plans Friday to walk off the job ahead on what is traditionally the busiest traveling day of the year.
But, hey, they really, really care or something.
A coalition of Southland labor and community leaders are calling for the protest of alleged violations by LAX contractor Aviation Safeguards (AVSG) after breaking their contract with the airport earlier this year.
Andrew Gross-Gaitan, the director of the Southern California Airports Division of SEIU, told KNX 1070 NEWSRADIO that AVSG left more than 400 LAX workers without affordable family health care when it failed to comply with the city's Living Wage Ordinance.
As many as 1,000 airport workers and union supporters are expected to march on Century Boulevard just as an estimated 1.8 million passengers are expected to travel through LAX over the holiday weekend.
SEIU marched in March, but there were not real delays. Now, Gross-Gaitan says ""It's entirely possible there will be significant travel delays." And big delays at a big airport can have a ripple effect across the country, as planes arrive very late at other airports, gumming up the works.
But, hey, AVSG looks like they are super big meanies, cancelling the union contract and failing to provide affordable health insurance (read that as mostly free). It's kinda strange, don't you think, that the above article, like most articles on the web since this issue started almost a year ago, fail to give the AVSG side of the issue and paint the union as the aggrieved party? Let's jump back in time, shall we?
(LA Times) Company officials said their employees voted in December to reject or decertify their collective bargaining agreement with the SEIU before its expiration date. Since then, hourly wages have improved for the vast majority of employees, they said, and workers can choose the type of healthcare plan they want.
So, the workers voted to no longer be part of a union. Their pay went up, and they can choose their health plan. Was the company supposed to tell its employees to piss off, their vote means nothing, and they must stay unionized? Interestingly, CBS LA has failed to approve my comments three time which point out that information.

In making NH laws, not everything is a hot-button issue
Rep. Katherine Rogers, D-Concord, said one of her LSRs, which would establish a Canine Veterans Day, is designed to honor dogs and their handlers who served in the military and police services. The date set aside would be March 13. Rogers said her proposal would not be intended to compete with Veterans Day or Memorial Day.
She acknowledged she is a dog lover.
"Oh, of course. But my dog is far from a military dog. He's a pug," she said.
Weed said he hopes the specter of being embarrassed by losing to "None of the Above" might make some legislators "deal with real issues."
If "None of the Above" won a plurality, Weed's proposal would call for a new election to be held, he said. The same candidates could run again if they chose, but Weed said that if he ever lost an election to nobody, he might consider not putting his name on the ballot again.
The LSR to include domestic animals in the domestic violence protection statute was submitted by Rep. Leigh Webb, D-Franklin.
The proposal calls for animals to be included in statutes that apply to such things as protective court orders that would require an accused abuser to stay away from the animal.
--- A proposal to repeal sugar packet requirements, by Rep. George Lambert, R-Litchfield. The law in question, RSA 143:6-a, requires establishments to serve sugar in individually wrapped packets or in a covered container that pours sugar through a hole no larger than three-eighths inch in diameter.
It was a time, Lambert says, when politicians were passing a slew of laws, some of them downright "absurd," to use his description. How did Lambert come across this one, amid 12,000 pages of legislation? He was browsing the RSAs for a talk about "absurd" laws when he saw this particular statute.
--- An LSR that would authorize friends of animals license plates, by Rep. Linda Massimilla, D-Littleton. The idea would allow vanity plates, to be designed later, at a cost of $30 that would fund grants for animal welfare organizations.
-- O'Flaherty has also submitted an LSR that would categorize poker as a game of skill rather than a game of chance. The move could cost the state nearly $1 million in gambling revenue, according to the state Legislative Services Office, because it may remove poker from the purview of the Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission, which has jurisdiction over games of chance.
-- An LSR to make June 10 National Freedom Day, by Sen. Martha Fuller Clark, D-Portsmouth.
The Legislative Services Office estimates that the program would cost the state more than $500,000 to implement, including the purchase of cameras, and an additional $260,000 to $270,000 in later years for maintenance and additional technical and support employees.
-- An LSR to establish a specific penalty for simple assault of a sports official at a sports event. Senate Minority Leader Sylvia Larsen, D-Concord, is the prime sponsor of a bipartisan group behind this bill.
Others are dropped without much explanation. The state's LSR list online shows 700 requests for 2014. As of Dec. 26, the number of LSRs withdrawn totaled 96.
Union Leader staff reporters Garry Rayno and Dan Tuohy contributed to this report.
