I received a message with some photos from a woman who had received a Horizontal Clitoral Hood (HCH) piercing, but she was disappointed with it. She sought the piercing to enhance her sexual pleasure, and she was not experiencing any added enjoyment or sensations. I saw the photo, and this was my comment:
Below is an email exchange I had with a woman in the UK who got a botched VCH piercing, and then got it redone properly:
Hi! My name is S., I live in the UK. I looked at your site before getting my VCH, I am happy with my piercing but it dosn't look like any on the VCH I've seen on your site and wondering maybe he's made a mistake? It's still a bit swollen as I've only had it a few days, I hope to hear back from u soon! Thanks! S. =)
HI S.,You definitely do NOT have a properly placed VCH piercing. You have a piercing located on the side of your clitoral hood. A VCH goes in the center. Further, the jewelry is not touching your clitoris, which is the thing that is potentially stimulating about the VCH piercing. Also the way the jewelry is resting, the piercing is higher on the inside of your hood than it is on the outside. This is not a proper placement and it causes your clitoral hood to be hooked over the top of the jewelry, so you're likely to get migration, scarring, or both. Additionally, you can expect that it will be uncomfortable, or downright painful.I'd ask for my money back, take the jewelry out, and seek a more qualified piercer to do it for you.
I just got yet another message from a woman who got a totally botched VCH piercing. This was especially upsetting since she had actually been on this website to learn about genital piercings before getting hers done!
I used your site for research about a vch piercing before actually getting it. Unfortunally I got it. I was not happy with how it came out, I dont think the pictures are showing it very well, but i can actually see the barbell through where I got the piercing. I contacted the piercer and he has offered to redo it free of charge. I just wanted your opinion on if I'm completely crazy for thinking it is messed up or if I was correct for taking it out. Also, I took it out two hours ago, but I am feeling discomfort, it isn't exactly pain but it doesnt feel natural. Is there any suggestions you have? I'm doing the sea salt soaks even though I took it out until it heals. Please Help!
My reply:
I receeived this message from a woman who wanted to know if she could wear gold body jewelry in a Vertical Clitoral Hood (VCH) piercing:
I'm interested in a vch piercing and my question is will a 14k curved bar be appropiate for this type of piercing?
I received yet another message about a botched VCH piercing. The difference was that it was done in a studio where I do refer to a particular piercer! However, the individual I refer to wasn't available so it was done by a different piercer. BEWARE: if I don't list the individual piercer's name on my referrals page, I am NOT providing a referral to them. Some studios have piercers that vary widely in terms of skills and experience. Please be careful!!!
"Hi Elayne, How are you? I'm messaging you because I got a vch piercing about 3 days ago from XXX. The piercer you recommended wasn't in so I let another piercer at the location do it. Now I'm concerned that it wasn't done right (placement) and that she used the wrong type of jewelry. I attached is a pic that I took myself, hopefully you can let me know what's up, and what I need to do if anything. Thanks in advance."
I recently received a wonderful email from a reader who got a VCH piercing for her 18th birthday. She explains that it was instrumental in reclaiming her body after abuse. Read her touching story about how a piercing was so positive and empowering:
Hello Elayne,I got my VCH piercing for my 18th birthday and it's really a thanks to you, this blog, the Piercing Bible and others who have the VCH piercing and shared their experiences.I was sexually abused for five years when i was a kid so my body never did feel like it was completely mine until my birthday (the 17th). I feel so liberated, new, fresh and like i finally have a choice with my body-- i never knew a piercing could make someone feel this way or could help me out much more than any therapist could. Whenever i have flashbacks, or memories of the abuse, i can just smile it off now because my body finally feels like it's MINE and no one will ever be able to take it away and abuse it again.Body modification has helped me out so much these past two years with finding myself again and gaining a strong sense of self and i feel like i owe a big thank you to you. You've enlightened me a lot on piercing (I want to be a piercer one day in the future) and have helped me realize how liberating and renewing a piercing can be-- thank you so much for being there for everyone, for writing the Piercing Bible and for being so passionate about body modification (you're a true inspiration)!
I received a question from a woman who was experiencing a very unpleasant side effect from her clitoral hood piercing:
Hi Elayne, I am so glad I found your website. I need your wisdom. I have had my vch for about two years and ever since I got it I have had a fishy scent. Prior to my piercing I had no scent at all - not to be gross, but my husband said I had no scent or taste. For example, I could be in bed for days with the flu and not shower and still not have any scent. Now, even though I wash daily I still end up with a fishy scent by the end of the day. (Sorry for the to-much-info details but I wanted to explain just how much my vagina has changed since the piercing). I clean with ivory and move the barbell back and forth. I don't have any discharge, redness, or pain. My husband said the scent is not that strong but I am horrified. I have not changed my piercing since I got it and from what the piercer told me I have a stainless steel barbell with "less than 18% nickel". I am wondering if I need to chane to another material, if I may have bacteria inside the piercing, or if the barbell possibly changed the pH of my vagina??? Should I just take it out? I am so embarrassed and would be grateful for any advice you could give me. Thanks so much,R.
I received a message from a woman who needed advice about her hood piercing:
I removed my HCH piercing when I was pregnant with my 3 year old. I couldn't get the piercing in after I had the baby. About a month ago my husband and I decided to try again. We used his cock piercing ring which was a bigger gauge with a bigger ball because we were unable to place the ball on my ring. Within 3 days I could barely walk due to the piercing. I am not sure if the gauge was too big on his ring for my piercing or we didn't clean everything properly. I am healed now and I want to put the piercing in again. What is the proper way to clean the ring and what is the best size? Or is there a trick to those pesky closing balls?Thanks in advance for your help!M.
Hi M.,Inserting an even larger size after a piercing has been out is a recipe for problems. So is inserting jewelry that has not been sterilized in an autoclave.Is there a reason you don't want to get help from a professional piercer? We have tools called insertion tapers that allow us to gently insert jewelry. There is a bit of a trick to getting the balls in, and most piercers are very adept at it!
This is a brief introduction to insertion tapers from my book:

Hary Cary Reid's
statements tell me that he does not have enough solid votes...too many wavering. My guess, is that the majority wants to see if OBomba's lies on Tuesday night will carry the day.
On the interview with PBS, Obomba was lying. His eyes were darting down and to the left and he had a tough time holding any eye contact at all. His body language also indicates that he is lying.
Obomba's problem is that he has been caught bluffing in a high stakes game of poker. Everyone on the planet knows he has no evidence and is lying. God himself must be laughing at such a buffoon. I relish in it.

Antec Unveils P150 Chassis / Neo HE PSU Series
Two seperate announcements were made by Antec over the past 24 hrs, with one introducing a new member to their Performance One series of cases in the "P150" chassis, and the other informing us of a new energy-efficient line of PSUs in the Neo HE range. Pairing these two together is said to be a terrific combination for those that desire a silent yet powerful system.
P150 Enclosure:-
Fremont, CA - October 4, 2005 - Antec, Inc., the leading manufacturer of computer hardware and accessories for the upgrade and build your own (BYO) markets, has launched P150, the latest case in its innovative Performance One series. P150's quiet computing enhancements and gleaming white and brushed aluminum finish with blue front bezel LED accents make it ideal for a broad range of computing environments.
The case was designed from the ground up for silence, featuring sound-deadening polycarbonate side and top panels to reduce overall noise. P150 also comes with four removable hard disk drive (HDD) trays with silicone grommets to isolate noise-causing vibrations. For even quieter performance, the drive trays can be removed and Antec's pioneering HDD suspension system can be used for up to three hard drives, thus completely eliminating direct contact and resultant noise between the drives and chassis structure. The P150 also includes an Antec 120mm TriCool selectable-speed fan, which allows users to adjust the fan speed to their desired cooling level and quietness.
Neo HE PSU Family:-
Fremont, CA - October 4, 2005 - Antec, Inc., the leading manufacturer of computer hardware and accessories for the upgrade and build your own (BYO) markets, has launched Neo HE, a quiet and environmentally friendly PC power supply. With its unprecedented high efficiency design and ultra-quiet operation, Neo HE consumes up to 20% less energy than standard power supply units (PSU), making it ideal for virtually any PC use.
Available in 380W, 430W, 500W and 550W models, Neo HE features universal input with active Power Factor Correction (PFC). Its improved circuit design and 0.99 power factor result in an environmentally friendly power supply that saves energy and has positive effects across the power grid. Since the PSU generates less heat than traditional power supplies, a slow turning, single 80mm fan keeps Neo HE cool at a less than 18dBA noise level, as independently tested to ISO Standard 7779.

New Turbo-Cool 1 Kilowatt PC Power Supply
With demands on higher amounts of power from hardware devices as they get faster and hungrier, its not surprising maker's of power supplies are continually working to provide us with beefier units for our systems. But who'd ever have thought we'd see 1000w (or 1 kilowatt) monsters pop up so soon? - Developed to power next-generation graphics and high-performance servers, the Turbo-Cool 1KW from PC Power & Cooling will ship worldwide in September 2005. With a form factor that fits most ATX cases, the ground-breaking power supply delivers 1000 watts (one kilowatt) of continuous power with a peak power of 1100 watts. The unit will retail for $489.00 US and carries a 5-year warranty.
For further details, have a read through the official announcement. You can also obtain a product brochure in PDF format here folks.
The upscale technology behind the Turbo-Cool 1KW was first introduced by PC Power & Cooling in its Turbo-Cool 850 SSI power supply, the industry's current performance leader. Released in February 2005, the 850 SSI has been recognized for excellence by NVIDIA corporation, Tom'sHardware, Maximum PC, and many other high-performance experts.
In order to generate one kilowatt of continuous power from the existing 850 SSI platform, the Turbo-Cool 1KW's power modules were engineered for greater thermal efficiency and key components throughout the unit were upgraded to handle the additional current. The result is an EPS12V/SSI/SLI power supply with unprecedented output (66 amps total on the +12VDC rails) in a form factor that fits most ATX cases.

Cooler Master Unveils CM Stacker 810 Case
Cooler Master's CM Stacker Chassis attracted much attention when first released around a year ago. But like many cases on the market, there were some little nigglys still to be ironed out if it was considered to reach near perfection for some.
Looks like Cooler Master have been listening to the crowd's feedback. Seeing much potential in the unique CM Stacker design, they've taken it upon themselves to better the case with a new version, the CM Stacker 810 which Cooler Master unveiled yesterday.
Cooler Master went back to the drawing boards after introducing the CM Stacker a year ago, and we have managed to incorporate the essential features of a server from the existing CM-Stacker to create the powerful CM-Stacker 810. The CM-Stacker 810 supports up to 4 CPU motherboards ranging from Micro-ATX to full size Extended-ATX. Unique power supply cage re-design to fully support standard ATX or redundant power supplies. We maximized the airflow by reconstructing the motherboard tray to support two 120mm super silent exhaust fans. Back from the root, CM-Stacker 810 will continue to have the ability to utilize up to three 120mm fan from the 4-in-3 Device Modules.

CoolerMaster Aero 7 catches on fire?!
CoolerMaster HK has issued a recall for one of their latest coolers according to a story over at Warp2Search. Many owners of the Aero 7 CPU cooler are reporting all types of bizarre problems with the product such as sudden scratches on the cooler material up to it actually catching on fire!
This is a very serious issue, if you use an Aero 7 owner I would look at replacing it right away and checking with your supplier for a refund or replacement with the newer Aero 7+ which apparently fix these strange problems.
To HK Aero 7 owner only: due to the design problem, our previous Aero 7 fan will potentially be damaged after certain amount of usage. We have noticed the problem and released the improved Aero 7+ to replace Aero 7. To be safe and this is a recall notice, we advise you to take your Aero 7 to our office before July 15th to exchange with Aero 7+. Should you have any inquiry please feel free to contact us.More information @ Warp2Search

Remixed Menu music from Super smash brothers melee!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Elegant yet hype-inducing arrangement
Love the melodic piano, really gives the theme a more sophisticated feel, but the adrenaline is slowly surging thanks to the hyperactive drum patterns. Nothing seems to overwhelm the other, but it does sound a little off-tune near the end. Other than that, excellent work :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
nice :3
i am a big ssbm fan and i like the songs of the game. your version of the menu songs sounds really great and can be also good as the original one.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
I can just imagine all the characters dancing around as this plays. The piano was a nice touch.

- It's possible I'm just gravely misunderstanding
something, but I've recently started to look into
SOAP::Lite for the purpose of pulling information
from the Liferay portal product.
I've been told to start by hitting the following
URL, which will give me a list of WSDLs for the services
offered by the server/portal:
I've been over and over the S::L docs as well as just
about everything I can find on-line about web services,
SOAP, WSDL, etc, and I cannot for the life of me figure
out what API I would use to pull a list of WSDLs from this
thing. Firefox gives me a blank page :-)
In a way I'm really mystified by the fact that all
the docs I can find seem to assume that you already
know what WS you want to access, if not all the details
about it. I thought part of the thing with WS was that
it works on an automated self-discovery principle. Where's
the API for finding out which services are offered?!?
Sorry, I'm just a bit frustrated :-} Thanks for any help.
p.s. Liferay have been less than entirely responsive (plus
they cater primarily to Java), which is why I'm coming here...

text: Gladwell's got a lovely prose style and an eye for the striking anecdote. The psychologist Paul Ekman describes the facial expression that says Bill Clinton's "a guy who wants to be caught with his hand in the cookie jar and have us love him for it anyway." Ekman then contracts his zygomatic major, tugs down the corners of his lips with the triangularis, flexes his mentalis, presses his lips together, and rolls his eyes, leaving Gladwell with the uncanny sense that Clinton's actually in the room. Despite some tension between Gladwell's worship of elegance (you can know everything important in two seconds) and his cult of expertise (some people understand far more about human nature than others), he sensibly concludes that the best decisions incorporate both instinct and deliberation, a balanced judgment with nothing snap about it.

The Outside Corner
Last updated 11/18/14
By now, the news is old: last night, Justin Upton declined a trade that would have send the Diamondbacks superstar outfielder to the Mariners in exchange for a package of four players (Taijuan Walker, Nick Franklin, Charlie Furbush, Stephen Pryor). Seattle is one of four teams on Upton's no-trade list, along with the Cubs, Red Sox, and Blue Jays. Questions remain about just why the hell Arizona GM Kevin Towers would even move this close to a trade with the Mariners when there was little to no chance Upton would accept a deal to them.
Now, the Diamondbacks are in a tough position. They can't go into 2013 with Upton on the roster with how ferociously Towers has tried to trade him this offseason, especially with how the events of this week has transpiered. Furthermore, Towers has lost a lot of his leverage with Upton. The Rangers, who have a farm system solid enough to swing a deal for Upton, are moving on after making a final offer to Towers before he agreed to the trade with the Mariners. The Orioles, Mets, and Padres have also discussed Upton, but weren't willing to meet Towers' lofty asking price. The Braves look like Upton's preferred destination after signing his brother BJ earlier this offseason, and could be a match in terms of prospects by building a package around starting pitcher Julio Teheran. But any package the Braves would offer would likely lack the ceiling compared to the Mariners' package centered around Walker and Franklin.
So what the hell is Towers to do? He needs to move someone, and Upton would bring the best return by far. This whole mess could have been avoided by simply not signing Cody Ross, but that would have made too much sense. With Jason Kubel, Gerardo Parra, and prospect Adam Eaton already in the fold along with Upton, adding Ross made no sense at the time and continues to make no sense. Upton is getting terribly undervalued by Towers after a disappointing 2012 season that saw his triple slash fall across the board, with the most significant drop coming in his power output.
Upton is a 25-year old signed at a solid enough salary for the next three seasons with 30 homer power and 20 steal speed, while also possessing the ability to walk at a double digit rate and provide above average defense in a corner outfield spot. This is the type of player you can build a team around, and Towers and the Diamondbacks are essentially shrugging their shoulders and trying to build a team around low ceiling veterans like Ross and Kubel. But at this point in time, a fresh start for both Upton and the Diamondbacks is probably the best course of action for both parties. If Upton comes into Spring Training next month as Arizona's starting right fielder, there is going to be a very awkward feeling in the air with the player that was once the face of the franchise seemingly just playing out the next three years, potentially being traded at the drop of a hat.
Towers really screwed the pooch on this one. Upton's value is dropping by the day, as Towers loses leverage to trade him and Upton's team control continues to go downhill. However, there is a potential benefit to keeping Upton in Arizona after this mess, and that's his on-field performance. After he struggled in 2012, Upton could rebuild his value in a big way in 2013. If Upton comes out and puts together a first half that brings back memories of the top overall talent he was in the 2005 draft, teams that are undervaluing Upton could get a slap in the face and realize how much of an elite talent he is. If the Rangers don't find an outfielder to replace Josh Hamilton in the next month and their offense struggles in the first half, Jon Daniels might be willing to bite the bullet and give Towers what he wants.
There's obviously another side to the coin, in that if Upton remains a Diamondback in 2013 and has an unmotivated, disappointing first half to the year, his value could plummet and that Walker/Franklin package could just be a pipe dream for Towers. It really is an awful situation for Upton, Towers, and the Diamondbacks, but Towers brought all of this upon himself. If he never engaged in trade talks with the Mariners, there would be less pressure on him to get a deal done after Upton declined the trade. If he never signed Ross, there would be no reason to trade Upton. And now, here we are, with a general manager needing to trade his superstar outfielder that it appears he never really wanted on his team. The market has been set after Seattle's offer came out, and it'll be difficult for any team to match that offer. Essentially, Towers needs to take a lesser offer and placate Upton, or go into 2013 with Upton on the roster along with two aging, expensive outfielders and two young, cheap outfielders. It's pretty much a lose/lose situation across the board for Arizona, and Towers has himself one hell of a pickle to work himself out of.

Kyoto promises are nothing but hot air
MANY governments, including some that claim to be leading the fight against global warming, are harbouring a dirty little secret. These countries are emitting far more greenhouse gas than they say they are, a fact that threatens to undermine not only the shaky Kyoto protocol but also the new multibillion-dollar market in carbon trading.
Under Kyoto, each government calculates how much carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide its country emits by adding together estimated emissions from individual sources. These so-called "bottom-up" estimates have long been accepted by atmospheric scientists, even though they have never been independently audited.
Now two teams that have monitored concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere say they have convincing evidence that the figures reported by many countries are wrong, especially for methane. Among the worst offenders are the UK, which may be emitting 92 per cent more methane than it declares under the Kyoto protocol, and France, which may be emitting 47 per cent more.
Peter Bergamaschi of the European Commission Joint Research Centre at Ispra, Italy, used an alternative "top-down" technique to study emissions across Europe. His technique is to measure in detail how concentrations of greenhouse gases vary across the globe. Levels are generally higher near major sources such as industrial centres, and when weather conditions trap the pollution. They are lower near natural "sinks" such as cold areas of ocean. Concentrations can also vary widely depending on factors such as the weather. Over London, for example, methane levels vary from 1800 parts per billion (ppb), the global background level, on windy days to upwards of 3000 ppb when local emissions from landfills and gas pipelines are trapped by cold night air.
By measuring these differences and tracking air movements, the scientists say they can calculate a country's emissions independently of government estimates. Bergamaschi's calculations suggest that the UK emitted 4.21 million tonnes of methane in 2004 compared to the 2.19 million tonnes it declared, while France emitted 4.43 million tonnes compared to the 3.01 million tonnes it declared. Methane is an extremely powerful greenhouse gas. While it persists in the atmosphere for only one-tenth as long as CO2, its immediate warming effect, tonne for tonne, is around 100 times greater. According to some estimates, methane is responsible for a third of current global warming, and reductions in methane emissions may be the quickest and cheapest way of slowing climate change.
Bergamaschi's figures are based on real atmospheric measurements that integrate emissions over large areas. While he admits that they cannot be entirely accurate, they are free from some of the sources of error that apply to national declared figures, which are based on uncertain extrapolations from sites such as landfills, whose emissions are highly variable.
During the course of Bergamaschi's study, the German government revised its estimate of national methane emissions upwards by some 70 per cent, placing it close to his estimate. The British and French governments continue to stick with their low estimates. Bergamaschi told New Scientist that the UK appears to be badly under-reporting methane bubbling out of landfill sites, while France's emissions seem to be generally under-reported. On the other hand, Ireland and Finland may be overestimating emissions from peat bogs.
Bergamaschi's calculations are supported by a similar study led by Euan Nisbet of Royal Holloway University of London, who is a member of the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW), a network of atmospheric scientists organised by the UN's World Meteorological Organization. Nisbet estimates that methane emissions in the London area in the late 1990s were 40 to 80 per cent higher than declared by the government at the time.
Both scientists believe that countries outside Europe are also likely to be under-reporting their emissions, and that the problem is global. "We know the total global emissions well enough, but individual national numbers may be badly out. Some are too big and some are too small," Nisbet says.
In the past, he says, estimates of greenhouse gas emissions were inaccurate simply because of the difficulty of measuring them, but that may have changed. "Now that money enters the picture, with the Kyoto protocol rules and carbon trading, so also can fraud. There will be an incentive to under-report emissions." Nisbet, Bergamaschi and other scientists now want to create a global system for auditing emissions claims by directly measuring concentrations of greenhouse gases in the air.
Most existing monitoring sites are intended to measure background gas levels in clean ocean and mountain air. The oldest and most famous is on top of Mauna Loa in Hawaii, where US researcher David Keeling first proved half a century ago that CO2 levels in the air were rising. The network now run by GAW is far from comprehensive: it includes just one station in China, sited on the relatively unpolluted Tibetan plateau, while India's sole site is in the unpolluted mountainous Ladakh region. There is no continuous monitoring in inland Africa, and only a few stations in South America and south-east Asia. Yet these regions support more than half the world's population and are responsible for a growing proportion of its greenhouse gas emissions.
Some western governments, say the scientists, have been reluctant to set up permanent monitoring stations. "Of all the G8 nations, the UK does the least," says Nisbet, who runs the only permanent monitoring point in England, from his lab near Egham, on the south-western fringes of London. The longest-running CO2 monitoring point on British soil, in the Shetland Islands, was run by Australia till 2001 and is now funded by Germany. France runs a network of monitors on its remote island territories round the world, but the UK government refuses pleas for it to do likewise on territories such as Ascension Island or South Georgia in the remote South Atlantic, or the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean. The European Union recently shut down its pioneering programme of measuring atmospheric methane across the continent. "Ironically, the best monitoring is done by the US and Australia, which are both in denial over Kyoto," Nisbet says.
The GAW scientists say that a global greenhouse gas monitoring network should provide open access to the information it collects. Only then, they say, will it be possible to do independent calculations to discover who is emitting what, and test which countries are complying with Kyoto and making accurate claims about their emissions. Until such a network is in place, it will be all too easy for nations such as the UK to talk green while acting dirty.
From issue 2557 of New Scientist magazine, 22 June 2006, page 10
Sins of Omission?
The most alarming failure of greenhouse gas emissions reporting is thought to have occurred in China, the world's second largest emitter. In the late 1990s, when its economy was growing by 10 per cent a year, the Chinese government reported a dramatic fall in CO2 emissions to the UN climate change convention. It declared that, after a long period of steep increases, emissions had fallen from 911 million tonnes of carbon a year in 1996 to 757 million tonnes in 2000, a drop of 17 per cent.
China said the fall in emissions was achieved by burning less coal, an assessment it based on a decline in coal production. Some analysts praised the country for using coal more efficiently, but that picture was called into doubt when declared coal production and emissions estimates resumed their fast rise. Estimates for 2004 put China's CO2 emissions above 1200 million tonnes.
Most analysts now conclude that the drop in emissions was entirely illusory. It coincided with major changes in the organisation of the Chinese coal industry, which replaced state targets with a market system. "Emissions figures before 1996 were inflated because mine officials had production targets to meet, and declared they had met them when they had not," one analyst told New Scientist. By 2000, this effect had gone, and "subsequent figures for CO2 emissions are probably more accurate as a result." While the Chinese government may not have intentionally misled the international community over its emissions at the time, the incident reveals how easy it could be to fiddle official figures.

As a resident of Brisbane, I hope nobody takes offence at the following and hope it will result in ongoing detailed critical review rather than international conferences and other promotional material that promotes our Busways without reference to impacts and context.
I totally agree with the points John raises below which were to all intents completely ignored in the initial decisions by government in regard to transport planning and provision in SEQ (including the Busways) and thus continue to be ignored ..
So Brisbane has Busways, but it is also about to spend over $2 billion on a tunnel for more convenient travel by car ... and there are several more tunnels planned .. also for cars ...! This of course was predictable ... see http://www.yeatesit.biz/transfiles/busways.pdf
Did anybody consider how this would impact on children walking or cycling to school, to illustrate just one of John's points below?
Put simply, it is far too easy to focus on the easier or more politically acceptable parts of integrated planning rather than "integrate" the complexity of issues ... and in many ways, the energy<>pollution issues are relatively easy for as is well known, if not often accepted by politicians and other interested decision makers, traffic prediction is not exactly accurate or even reasonably reliable.
Put another way, as Bent Flyvbjerg et al and others have shown, these big projects rarely if ever have legitimate well researched and well supported justification that is then monitored and evaluated critically and independently over time so not surprisingly the benefits are exaggerated and the costs underestimated or ignored ... exactly what is happening in Brisbane with its billion dollar Busways and billion dollar tunnels ... paradoxically, all designed (not necessarily intentionally or explicitly) for more cars on the roads ....
For example soon after the first Busway was opened, an informal platform survey found that most of the passengers either (i) worked at or near the outer end major regional retail centre (ie Garden City at Upper Mt Gravatt) and were primarily using the busway for additional non-essential trips that they would never have done before the Busway or (ii) drove to the Busway often a longer distance than previously (another form of induced travel) and quite a few of these had transferred from using rail (30 minute frequency) to using the much higher frequency buses on the Busway but relying on the very large and very expensive Park'n'Ride parking because there was so little improvement in service levels of local buses as a result of the Busway. Why? Because virtually all the buses went into the CBD on the Busway.
Aside from recent transport conferences held in Brisbane with a focus on the Busways, there has been an enormous effort put into publicising the Busways in Brisbane and beyond.
But at the same time, there has been almost no critical review so it is not surprising that people see the aspects that have been promoted.
There is however some information about the busways provided via investigations by the Queensland Parliament Public Works Committee (see http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/view/committees/committees.asp?area=PWC&LIndex=7&SubArea=PWC )
see PWC Report 39 and a further report (which reduced criticism) at PWC Report 42 at http://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/view/committees/committees.asp?area=PWC&LIndex=7&SubArea=reports&Bindex=3
Transcripts of public hearings can be found at
Also, while there has been rhetorical support for "integrated" public transport, in fact nearly 10 years later, very few buses go close to the some 70 train stations in Brisbane because the bus system still remains extremely radial ... a point further exaggerated by the Busways ... thus the buses and Busways operate in opposition to, rather than in "integrated" support of, the already high capacity rail system.
So not surprisingly, there is a major congestion problem with buses in the CBD approaches and an increasingly greater layby and float problem .. the solution to which is building more Busways (extensions underway in the CBD right now).
But like cars, more buses simply congest the roads once their useful role and performance is exceeded ... so SEQ is rapidly becoming a case study well worth considering as to whether BRT and an emphasis on buses is simply the result of conceptual thinking that sees buses as more efficient cars ... and Busways as freeways for buses ...!
But in addition, Brisbane now has a series of related problems ... not enough buses ... but then it is argued, there is nowhere for more buses as the CBD and approaches are already congested ...!
Busways are no different to freeways and motorways ... they provide a dream of unlimited capacity, flexibility and utility when opened but end up congested and in need of increased capacity ... .
Until the points that John makes below are also included, rail will be seen as too expensive and inflexible by those who regard buses as large cars ...
You might also find it useful to see what has been said eg
Paul Mees at http://www.brisinst.org.au/resources/brisinst_publictrans.html
Peter Newman at http://www.brisinst.org.au/resources/newman_peter_busway.html
and some of my own articles at
These are sourced from a collection of articles at http://www.brisinst.org.au/resources/brisbane_institute_transportseries.html
The local newspaper is "The Courier-Mail" which has current news at http://www.couriermail.news.com.au/queensland and recent news at http://www.couriermail.news.com.au/archives
So if anyone wants a research topic of local<>global interest and importance, come to Brisbane and have a long critical look ... but please, if you really want to get behind the rhetoric and marketing/promotional hype, be prepared to try to travel without relying on using a car.

'Helen Burns' EP
The EP, which was inspired by a character from the Charlotte Brontë novel Jane Eyre, marks a big change from the funky pop-rock Flea is usually known for. It's largely psychedelic instrumental material, although there is a noteworthy vocal cameo from Patti Smith on the title track.
Flea said in a statement, "Warning! It is not a Chili Peppers record. It does not have songs that are like the Chili Peppers at all. It is a mostly instrumental, weird and arty record, the music is mostly just me creating soundscapes that are very emotional for me, but certainly not for everyone! Just me tripping out at home."
You can download the collection for free right here or make a donation to the Silverlake Conservatory of Music. You can also order a vinyl copy for $75. These are autographed and come with a piece of bass string played by Flea and are limited to 900 copies. They will ship on August 10.
Coming back soon! If our developer were more machine than man they'd already be here. Useless meatsack.
For now, please send any and all feedback to [email protected].

A day after the Obama administration announced the 10 winners in the second round of the "Race To The Top" education competition, one state that was left out of the group has some pretty big issues with the decision.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie went on a tear today, saying that his state, which came in 11th in the competition was unfairly kept out of the top 10 slots. Christie brought the large, two-binder, 1,000-page application with him to a press conference today admitting that his state made a clerical error in its application. But that single error should not keep them from getting a piece of the nearly $400 million dollars of federal funding.
""If you're a normal thinking breathing human being you pick up the phone and you say hey, you sent this wrong piece of paper can we get the information?" asked Christie at a press conference today.
New Jersey was docked 4.8 points for incorrectly giving budget information for the wrong years. Instead of submitting budget data for 2008 and 2009, New Jersey sent information for 2010 and 2011. While it was a minor mistake, with only a minor deduction, it was enough to put them lower than the state of Ohio - by 1.8 points to be exact.
The mistake was made by a mid-level official at the State Department of New Jersey. While Christie acknowledges that the mistake was their fault, he believes that the Obama administration should have given his state a chance to correct the mistake.
"Does anybody in DC have a lick of common sense? Pick up the phone and ask us for the number," said Christie, adding "Are you guys just down there checking boxes like mindless drones?"
The Department of Education however is sticking to its decision. In a statement to ABC News officials said, "New Jersey has a lot to be proud of and we look forward to working with them on what we hope will be round 3 of race to the top. In this round of race to the top, we believe the application requirements were very clear. A state that wanted to compete had to give us the correct information by the application deadline. This was not an open ended process. At some point, we had to say time's up, pencils down."
Losing this money is a big blow to a state that used almost all of its education stimulus in one budget year. But some say that just because New Jersey needs the money doesn't mean they should get to correct mistakes.
"if you can't fill out your application correctly there is some indication that maybe you don't have the apparatus in place or the competence to execute the money that you could win," said Neal McCluskey, from the Cato Institute.
While not happy about how this turned out, Gov. Christie has promised he will not let the staff member who made the mistake take any public blame.
"If you think for a minute I'm going to fire some mid-level person who is putting this application together because they put one wrong piece of paper in then you don't know me," said Christie. "Wanna take shots? Take shots at me."
New Jersey was one of 35 states and the District of Columbia to apply for a portion of the $3.4 billion remaining in the competition. That list was then winnowed down to 19 finalists last month.

The view from the 33nd floor was amazing especially during a blizzard.
The toilet was not flushed before we arrived and had something disgusting waiting for us.
Overall its a nice place, the Lobby is nice and so were the people at the desk. For the rate I received at around $---- a night I was happy, however for the regular rate of double that I would have been disappointed.

Great location
Customer service left a lot to be desired. Requested safe be unlocked multiple times over two days (was locked upon our arrival) and no one ever came to deal with it. Room wasn't restocked with coffee cups, water was turned off overnight one day.
Due to blizzard we had to stay longer than planned. Front desk personnel said we could extend at the price we were currently paying but when we went down confirm we were told a rate even higher than the Westin website.

Home » Softball News#21/22 Irish Win Wild Saturday Showdown With VirginiaApril 19, 2014 HOOSIER SPORTS 365NOTRE DAME RELEASE CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Pitching was the key for the University of Notre Dame softball team in its two wins on Friday over Virginia, but it was the offense that kicked into another gear during the series finale between the teams. The No. 21/22 Irish tallied 18 hits on their way to securing an Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sweep with a 15-8 win over the Cavaliers on Saturday at The Park. "Virginia took what we gave to them, they did a great job of taking what we gave to them," Notre Dame head coach Deanna Gumpf said. "They were going to go down swinging, and were so overly aggressive that it finally worked in their favor in the fourth inning. The coaches wanted them to swing, they made something happen in the fourth, but we came back and it was fine." Sophomore first baseman Micaela Arizmendi tied a Notre Dame (29-9, 9-4 ACC) program record with five hits during a 5-for-5 day, contributing five RBI and a run scored. Arizmendi finished the series 9-for-11 (.818) with three doubles, one home run, eight RBI and four runs in three starts. "I was focused on hitting the ball up the middle," Arizmendi said. "I knew that they were going to throw me a lot of changeups, so I was trying to hit early in the count, avoid the changeup. "(During the series) I was landing and getting my front foot down, and being aggressive early in the count," Arizmendi added. "Usually, I am more successful when I do that." Junior All-American Emilee Koerner reached base safely in all four plate appearances, going 3-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI and four runs scored. Koerner's four runs also tied a Notre Dame program mark. "The top of the lineup was just tough to get out," Gumpf said. "We were hitting the ball really well. Luckily this was a day where we needed to hit really well, and we did." Freshman Karley Wester and junior Jenna Simon both worked four-pitch walks against Virginia starter Marcy Bowdren (0-4) in the top of the first inning. Koerner laid a nice sacrifice drag bunt down the first base line to advance both runners into scoring position. Arizmendi then crushed a two-out single that struck the pitcher Bowdren's leg and carried into right field, scoring Wester and Simon to give Notre Dame a 2-0 lead. "I've just been more relaxed this year," Arizmendi said. "If I make a mistake, I just shake it off. Also, I have focused on hitting the ball hard even if it is an out, and scoring runs, most importantly." On the second pitch from senior Laura Winter (18-4) in the bottom of the first, Cavalier leadoff hitter Heidi Velk crushed what looked to be a sure double to the gap in left center field. Koerner made a terrific catch on her horse from center, laying out full extension near the warning track to rob Virginia (6-38, 1-22 ACC) of an extra base hit. A groundout to Arizmendi at first base by Iyana Hughes and a strikeout swinging by Katie Park ended the Virginia half. Junior Cassidy Whidden needed to see just one pitch from Bowdren in the top of the second inning, drilling a no doubt solo home run over the wall in straightaway center, to up the Irish cushion to 3-0. Three straight fly ball outs for Virginia allowed Winter to post a scoreless bottom of the second inning. Senior Lauren Stuhr made a nice diving grab in right field for the third and final out. Koerner led off the top of the third with her 18th double of the season, grooving Bowdren's first offering of the inning off the wall in center field. After junior Katey Haus reached base due to a fielding error, Arizmendi added her second run-scoring single through the right side, plating Koerner from second base to extend the Notre Dame advantage to 4-0. Winter struck out the side swinging in the bottom half of the third inning, retiring Taylor Sarcone, Karli Johnson and Bowdren on strikeouts. Three straight singles from Stuhr, Wester and Simon loaded the bases with one out. A passed ball with Koerner at the plate allowed pinch runner Monica Torres to score from third base (5-0). Koerner drew a four-pitch walk to reload the bases, and a Haus hit by pitch brought Wester across for a 6-0 Notre Dame lead. Arizmendi continued her hot day at the plate, as an RBI double down the left field line scored two more runs, upping the lead to 8-0 Irish. Whidden added her second long ball of the game two batters later, crushing a three-run shot down the left field line to clear the bases (11-0). A solo home run one batter by senior captain Chloe Saganowich to dead center capped the inning's scoring at eight runs, making it 12-0 Notre Dame. Virginia struck back in the bottom of the fourth inning, as a double off the wall by Lindsay Mayer scored the first Cavalier run of the day (12-1). A two-run home run from Megan Harris two batters later chased Winter with Notre Dame in front 12-5. Freshman Rachel Nasland came on in relief and escaped the inning with a strikeout and ground ball out to end the wild frame. Notre Dame put the pedal down in the top of the fifth inning, plating a pair of runs off Virginia reliever Aimee Chapdelaine. RBI singles from Koerner and Haus re-upped the Irish lead to nine runs at 14-5. Virginia added two more runs in the bottom of the fifth to keep the game alive, but Allie Rhodes inherited the bases loaded with nobody out and retired the side without allowing a run, bailing the Irish out of the jam at 14-7. After Virginia added a run in the bottom of the sixth, Koerner crushed her second double of the ballgame to lead off against Chapdelaine in the top of the seventh inning. Arizmendi then tied the Notre Dame single-game hits record with an infield single that advanced Koerner to third base. Winter cashed in the RBI opportunity with a single through the left side, extending the Irish lead to 15-8.

I am a pansexual female who has never had a long-term relationship
Customer Question
I am a pansexual female who has never had a long-term relationship with a female before, and I am in love with my best female friend who identifies as queer. She has been my best friend since I moved here over a year ago, and I've wondered about her feelings towards me since then. I moved out of town temporarily for a job, for about 3 months, and I realized how much I cared for her, and about three months after coming home I told her how I felt. I didn't know how she was going to react, but I didn't expect her to react by not telling me a single thing about how she felt. She asked some follow-up questions the next day and when I told her I was struggling with not knowing what she is feeling, she said she needed time to process everything. It has been over 2 weeks, we've had some contact, and I have no idea what to do now. I think if she had no feelings she would have just said so. I also know that she has scars from past relationshps and has a lot of relationship fears. What do I do?

We are both 23, she dates women, I date men and women but have never had a serious relationship with a woman, and one of her questions to me after I told her how I felt was about whether I understood that dating a woman brings along different baggage. I think she was very suprised when I told her I had feelings for her because she has mentioned only seeing me have "relationships" with men. We have both initiated contact with one another. After she invited me to meet her one night and she acted as if I hadn't said anything, I expressed that I was really struggling with not knowing what was going on, and she said she has been trying to figure out what to say but that life has been busy. Contact has been minimal, especially in comparison to how often we were in contact previously.
Ms Chase
replied 6 years ago.
Many gay women will look somewhat scornfully at women who date men, but claim to want to be with women. If she is strictly gay, she may not be willing to take the chance that you will decide to go back with a man the minute things go wrong. Its not easy to say what she's thinking, as I don't know her...even though you know her, you don't know for sure.
It's either one of two things. Either she isn't feeling for you 'like that', and she has no idea how you will react or how it will affect your friendship. I'm leaning towards that because you said you hung out and she never mentioned it, which tells me she was hoping you wouldn't mention it, and it could go away as well as the fact that you're saying that you haven't been in contact.
It's possible she could be involved with someone and can't work that out in her head right now.
Or as I said earlier, she's not able to trust that you really are ready to make that kind of commitment.
My suggestion would be to let her know that if she wants to just forget about it, then you are willing to do that....that's if you are capable of doing that. I understand you are saying you are in love with her, but if she doesn't feel the same way, it doesn't really make a difference, because a relationship or love cannot be built by one person alone. Sad and harsh but true. You have to decide whether or not you can remain friends with her if she rejects you as a potential partner, and go from there.
I welcome your thoughts, let me know if you want to talk more

I know she is willing to date girls who aren't strictly lesbian, but having been her best friend through a number of relationships in which girls have used her, I knew there was a chance she might be apprehensive simply because of that. However, I think I am struggling with how she is responding because of the history of our friendship- how close we have been, how we have built a strong base of trust, how we have helped each other throught a lot. And I don't want to bore you with the history, but there are a lot of reasons for me to believe that she does have feelings for me, so that is part of why I am struggling with this as well.
I agree that it could be her not wanting to hurt my feelings or damage our friendship, but it is hard for me to believe this based on what I do know about her- I can't help but think that if she didn't have feelings she would have just said so. And the lack of contact is mostly because she said she needed time to process everything, and I have completely backed off and given her space to do so. I do know for a fact that she isn't involved with anyone.
I think I am really struggling with this because I just don't know how to proceed from here, after her telling me two different times that she needs time to process everything. I want to give her that time but I have been so miserable the last couple weeks, not knowing what she is feeling AND missing my best friend. If she doesn't have feelings for me, I will of course remain friends with her- she is too important in my life to just let go, but I am struggling with what to do from here that will respect her needs and also meet my own. If all of that makes sense...
Ms Chase
replied 6 years ago.
It does make sense, and like I said...you know her far better than I do. The problem is, if you feel you are in love with her, you actually cannot trust your instincts anymore as you will see things in a different light, sometimes more in your favor, sometimes less in your favor.
I understand the waiting is killing you, and in a sense, you can call her bluff as I said before and tell her that you apologize for throwing that on her at this time, and it's ok with you if she doesn't feel the same way, you just want to have the friendship you once had back.
This way it takes the pressure of you 'waiting' for an answer that she may not be willing to give right now, and it gives you the opportunity to physically be around her again 'as friends'. Hopefully being together and hanging out as friends will bring up those emotions for her again. The thing is, if you do that, I would absolutely advise against mentioning it unless she brings it up. Otherwise the whole thing will backfire and she will think you only did it to try and 'get with' her. You have to take the mentality that if it's meant to be, it will happen, now or later but it will happen, and be satisfied with that.

Hi Ms Chase,
I appreciate your response, and I will "agree" because I think it was thoughtful advice. I received a response from my friend earlier tonight- she is very interested, admitted to me that she has had feelings for a long time, and is worried/hesitant because we are both graduating and will have jobs elsewhere in the country as of the end of May and she doesn't want us to get into something if we are going to be on different sides of the country. We are going to meet in a couple days to discuss everything in person- I just thought you should know.

Your Europa Mission Primer of the Day
Posted by Casey Dreier
Topics: Explaining Policy, Europa, Space Policy, Future Mission Concepts
If you've been following our calls for NASA to explore Europa (or even better, if you haven't), and have questions like, "why haven't we explored Europa already?" and "I thought NASA was working on the Europa Clipper mission?," Jeff Foust of the Space Review wrote up an excellent piece reviewing the recent history of humanity's effort to explore this compelling, watery moon:
NASA has been working on reducing a cost of a Europa orbiter mission, in large part by no longer making it an orbiter. The concept now favored within the space agency is something called "Europa Clipper." Instead of going into orbit around Europa, the spacecraft would instead go into orbit around Jupiter and make repeated close flybys of the moon. The most recent mission designs involve 45 flybys of Europa over three and a half years, with the vast majority of them coming within 100 kilometers of the moon's surface. That approach minimizes the spacecraft's exposure to radiation as well as propellant needed for entering orbit around Europa.
That work on Europa Clipper has largely been done at the insistence of Congress, rather than by NASA's own initiative. In the final fiscal year 2013 budget, Congress set aside $75 million of NASA's planetary sciences budget specifically for Europa mission studies, and followed that up with $80 million in the fiscal year 2014 budget, even though NASA requested no money in either year's budget request for Europa. The text of the final 2014 appropriations bill noted that the $80 million "shall be for pre-formulation and/or formulation activities for a mission that meets the science goals outlined for the Jupiter Europa mission in the most recent planetary science decadal survey."
Read the full piece on the Space Review, where he also delves into the potential role of the Space Launch System to launch a Europa mission and how the recently-discovered plumes impact mission design.
