Grateful Dead
Greatest Stories Ever Told - "Black Throated Wind"
By David Dodd
Here's the plan—each week, I will blog about a different song, focusing, usually, on the lyrics, but also on some other aspects of the song, including its overall impact—a truly subjective thing. Therefore, the best part, I would hope, would not be anything in particular that I might have to say, but rather, the conversation that may happen via the comments over the course of time—and since all the posts will stay up, you can feel free to weigh in any time on any of the songs! With Grateful Dead lyrics, there's always a new and different take on what they bring up for each listener, it seems. (I'll consider requests for particular songs—just private message me!)
Happy birthday, Bob Weir! (October 16.) Cue up "Beat It On Down the Line" with an insane number of opening drumbeats. Seems like a good time to take a look at "Black-Throated Wind," if ever there was one.
Here's one of at least three hitchhiker songs in the Dead repertoire. (The others I'm thinking of are …? Your responses welcome. Maybe there are more than I think. ) Does anyone hitchhike anymore? I have a ton of memories about this mode of transportation, dating mostly from the late 1970s when it was the only way, in some cases, to get from point A to point B. Get your hitchhiking stories ready—there are bound to be some good ones out there.
In the case of this particular song, the singer is reminiscing about a failed relationship while trying, unsuccessfully, to hitch a ride—but the cars, the buses, and the semis won't pick him up. He is, it seems, running away from a situation in which he did not get the better deal. He's out on the edge of an empty highway…no wait—that's the other one…no, not The Other One. Oh yikes.
This gets complicated, this stuff about the Dead and songs about being on the road or jumping onto buses or not being picked up by buses. (It has been a long several days, frankly, and I'm winging it here. I apologize for any incoherence in advance.)
Also, as a former hitchhiker, I have to ask: did anyone ever get picked up by a commercial trucker? I know this happens in "Me and Bobby McGee," but..really? And then in "Pride of Cucamonga," there's a hitchhiker getting on board a Diesel Mack—another commercial truck.
John Barlow, in this early lyric written for Weir, which appeared on his "solo album," Ace, in 1972, makes passing nodes to several icons, including, I would say, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., with his line containing the phrase "Ah, Mother American Night," (caps Barlow's) which brings to mind Vonnegut's novel Mother Night. It's also been suggested that this is a double nod, and includes the ultimate icon of being on the road, Jack Kerouac, who wrote these lines in On the Road:
"The stars bent over the little roof; smoke poked from the stovepipe chimney. I smelled mashed beans and chili. The old man growled... A California home; I hid in the grapevines, digging it all. I felt like a million dollars; I was adventuring in the crazy American night."
I've gotten into a number of disputes, over the years, about the lines
"It forced me to see
That you've done better by me
Better by me than I've done by you"
The meaning seems obvious to me: "done better by me" means "treated me better." For some reason, some people insist on reading it as "you've gotten the better of me," which is just sort of exactly the opposite of what is being said. Sigh. But, you know, it's a lesson I seem to need to learn over and over: people will hear in these songs what they need to hear.
So, the singer is stuck in the middle of nowhere, having left his lover in St. Louis, thinking that he may have misbehaved, and maybe he should head on back there, possibly to grovel and ask to be taken back.
I don't think Barlow was satisfied with the lyric, or maybe Weir wasn't, because of the fact that the song's extremely uneven performance history (from The Grateful Dead Family Discography: "'Black Throated Wind' was first performed by the Grateful Dead in March 1972. The song was played over 70 times in 1972 and then just under 20 times in each of 1973 and 1974. It was not then performed again until 1990 after which time it was played between 6 and 12 times in each of the following years through to 1995.") gave rise to an attempt, when the song reappeared in 1990, to use a fairly extensive reworking of the lyrics.
Not sure how many times Weir sang those new words, but I think the attempt was abandoned before long. The newer words don't seem either more lucid or more evocative than the original lyrics.
It does make me wonder, though, how often it occurred in the Dead repertoire, that there was proposed a significant re-working of lyrics once the song had been in performance for quite some time. It's easy to find variants among early versions of the songs, and sometimes we come across lines that get changed with the times ("Throwing Stones," "One More Saturday Night," etc.), but aside from "Black Throated Wind," was there another that reappeared in significantly different form?
I know Hunter wrote additional verses to "Truckin'," but I don't know that they were ever broken out in a show. Any others? It would be interesting to know. I think Hunter also rewrote "Mountains of the Moon" at some point, but again, I don't think those new words ever made it into the Dead's performance—or Furthur's, when it comes to that song.
There's something very quirky about the song. Looking at its musical notation in Grateful Dead Anthology II, I wonder at the contortions the transcriber had to go through to get at Weir's melody line, which is often triplets sung over the four-four time signature ("alone with the rush of the drivers that won't pick me up…"). And the chord progression is not exactly straightforward, either, with a song ostensibly in the key of E incorporating C major, G major, and D7 chords.
It's the kind of strangeness, musically, that is quintessential Weir. He seems to manage, throughout his songwriting career, to challenge himself to not be happy with the easy answers when it comes to the music itself, and I really like that. Someday I will have to write about "Victim or the Crime," which is perhaps the strongest example of this. Or even "Easy Answers" itself. There's lots to play with in his songs—lots to challenge the ear and to make us, in a strange way, pay more attention to the lyrics than we might if the music was simpler, more straightforward.Am I making any sense whatsoever?
Over to you all, for your thoughts on this song, which I hope will be more clear than my own. Topics: hitchhiking; the song's plot line; reworked lyrics; Bob's birthday. Go!
I suppose one man's Clunker is another man's Gem.
"Plunging like stones from a Slingshot on Mars"
just takes this song Up into a Cosmic Perspective for me.
I Love it.
From the "Highway" to the "Moon" back down to the "Clouds" then all the way to the "Stars" we are Catapulted into the Grand Scheme of Things.
Right away we are transcending this Mortal Coil.
Likewise the imagery of a "Black Throated Wind" as an Antagonist and the "Light" as a Protagonist and our Lonely Hitchhiker trying to make sense out of the illusions and lies and finally being able see the "Light"
Our Lost Boy is having to re-evaluate things and concludes he needs to get back to the place he was running from.
First we find him "Blind in the Light"
Then he is " Lost from the Light"
and finally "Here comes the Light" which transforms his whole point of view and gets him turned around.
Finally...One of my FAVORITE lines ever...
"so I Give you my Eyes and all of their Lies
please help them to Learn as well as to See
and Capture a Glance and make it Dance
( poetic Genius...A Dancing Glance..WoW)
of Me Looking at You Looking at Me"
If more people would be willing to live that line... What a Wonderful World it Would Be
Also...I've always heard the last reference to the Black Throated Wind as
"Speaking a Lie that Could Almost be True" (instead of "Life")
The most effective Lies will look very Believable until seen in the Light.
Then the Ferocious Conclusion of "Coming back Home- That's What I'm Going to Do"
as the Music and Energy Build and Build.
"'Cause You've Done Better by Me than I've Done by You"
that Yingy Yangy Line we've been wrestling with.
It seems to me At First He left home feeling like He'd done Better and She done him Wrong.
Then he gets Turned around and see's it Completely Opposite.
She's done Better than He's done.
( I am picturing Ralph Cramden at the end of Every Honey Mooner show - Ha!!)
Now She is some one to be Loved and no longer someone to be Blamed
or so it seems to me...
that is a scary hitchhiking tale!
I think the key here is the previous line. It's the black-throated wind that has forced our protagonist to see the truth. It seems that the hitchhiker would be forced to see the relationship the way that David interprets it, and not the other way around.
I like this song. Can't say it's one of my favorites, but it is solid enough. I don't connect much with the lyrics except for "I left St Louis, the City of Blues", possibly because St Louis seems like an overlooked city that deserves a mention now and then. It seems like a song Johnny Cash might have written, although Cash's version would have been cleaner, leaner, and meaner. I enjoy something about its feeling of urgency and desperation. The rising intensity of Bob's singing towards the end of this one works for me somehow. But on the downside, I have to say "the buses and semis plunging like stones from a slingshot on Mars" is the worst klunker of a simile in any dead tune, and probably one of the worst in the history of the English language.
I could write many pages about my hitchhiking (mis)adventures, but not one of my stories involves a commercial trucker. My worst experience with hitchhiking was the time I picked up a deadhead who wanted to go from Berkeley into the city. He looked like a typical longhair vegetarian peacenik bliss boy. The dead were doing a series of shows in SF that week, and bliss boy quickly started telling me was going to every show using the free tickets he had because he was fast friends with everyone in the band, and how Mountain Girl would always give him big bags of the best weed. I figured he was full of shit but harmless. But by the time we were onto the bay bridge he was explaining to me that he was studying law so he could be the one who finally gets Manson out of jail, because "Charles Manson is Jesus Christ, you know". He was not joking. I played along and said things like, "yeah sure that sounds right....wow, good luck with that man!", because I was scared shitless that at any moment he was going to pull a giant hunting knife out of his duffle and commence with some stabbing. I was ready to jump out of my car right there half way across the bridge. Yikes!!
I interpret "you've done better by me...than I've done by you" to mean "you have benefited from being with me more than I have benefited from being with you". It's a common sort of expression, isn't it? Sorry, but I don't have the scholarly chops to find support for that perspective.
I again wanted to contribute a few disconnected thoughts here:
When Barlow songs started popping up in the Dead's repertoire I loved it, but he was so *different* from Hunter (whom I saw in Boston the other day, a fantastic show). Here he contributes a straight-ahead blues song rather than the free-range(ing) play on perceptions and emotions. There's a single symbol in it (the titular wind of course) rather than the multitude cascading through Hunter songs, and a single emotion. The guy feels like crap (can I say "shit" in this forum?), and after standing there staring at the sky and the cars that won't pick him up, he just turns around and goes home. End of simple, and marvelously worded, story.
Good call to highlight the "you've done better by me" line, which immediately stands out to the listener. The first occurrence of it is the turning point of the song, and it makes you think about what it means and why the guy is shouting that over and over in his head. What happened in that relationship?
I've always interpreted that line and the relationship in a different way than Mr. Dodd lays out. I feel that he was dumped by her. He tried to tell himself that it ended because she was no longer the woman he fell in love with. But actually ... he realizes ... she was *always* the same woman: interested in what she could get out of the relationship before she left it rather than being interested in him. So that's what "you've done better by me" means, that she's managed to get what she wanted out of him and he's left with nothing. "Please help them to learn," means that he needs to keep his eyes open next time so this doesn't happen again (has it happened before?). That black-throated wind is a symbol for a lie (the relationship) that could almost be true but isn't.
And "going back home?" ... it doesn't mean that he's going back to her, it's the classic line that he's going back to something simple and which he understands. Anyway, that's my interpretation and I'm sticking to it. And thanks again to the great lyricists ... let's do Cucamonga next! :)
I agree with David that the "Better By Me" line is saying She treated Him Better than He treated Her. The whole story is about him recognizing that fact and wanting to get back to her.
Another line that I found hard to wrap my brain around is this one...
" I can't deny the Time's Gone By
when I never had Doubts or Thoughts of Regret
and I was a Man when all this Began
who Wouldn't think Twice about Being There Yet"
...quite profound the more it sinks in!
hope y'all don't mind -but I will be posting more
This is one of those songs that gets better and better the more I listen and ponder on it!
"...there's a Lost Kids Situation has come up via the headphones
that there's a Whole Bunch of Lost Kids down in the Kid Tent Crying
because they haven't seen there Mommies and Daddies for months..."
came the announcement by Ken B. which followed Black Throated Wind at the Creamery Show
This is Just the Right Song for a Kid in a Lost Situation
I always took this to mean that the protagonist felt he treated his ex better than she treated him. That she benefited more from being with him than he did by being with her.
only the Grateful Dead can get away with. "Im bound to the load I've picked up in 10000 cafes and bars..." This is one of them. Sure, the Grateful Dead had a great time traveling around but they traveled all of the time and certain aspects of that must have been pretty hard. Just like everything else or anyone else's trip, the wine often seems sweeter on the other side of the hill. So, life is passing him by...the busses and semis, plunging like stones from a slingshot on Mars. (I just got that lyric, its another world!) Another life is passing him by and his load keeps getting bigger with every cafe, bar, and stop along the way, each place further from home. So, when he says 10000! cafes and bars, it can conjure up a lot of thoughts of what his viewpoint might be, good or bad. But more importantly, its not much of an exaggeration. Even by 1972, they had been all over the U.S. and back and all over again. Around this time, I assume, Stella Blue was written and it has one of those lines thats always popped out at me as being something that only a traveling band like this could get away with (or a traveling salesman). "Ive stayed at every blue light, cheap hotel." Now I know they obviously haven't stayed at them all but its got to be a pretty impressive list, again, even by the early 70's.
I love Black Throated Wind and I love the different lyrics in 1990. Also, I wish that hitching was more prominent in our current world but its a much colder society. Can't help anybody out or they might stab you...really?! What a terrible way to live. I have picked up a few hitchhikers along the way and we didn't stab each other. Score: Good 1 <> Evil 0
I feel that Weir/Barlow songs are just as strong as Garcia/Hunter songs. This song is one of the strongest. I've always wondered how they came up with the melody. It's one that seems hard to make up, I'm surprised they pulled it off. I couldn't ever think up of a song like this in a million years (nor any other songwriter from Hunter to Dylan to Lennon/McCartney)!! Way to go Weir/Barlow!!

Blackberry Z10 could be banned in China.
Hi all
Saw this article on another website. I thought it was one of the dumbest claims I've seen in a while.
Blackberry Z10 gets accused of copying a Chinese phone, could be banned in China!
I live in Beijing and am eagerly awaiting the release of the new phones and the new OS.
Cheers -
Re: Blackberry Z10 could be banned in China.
That phone looks like if the z10 and the iphone 4s had a love child. a little z10 up front, a little 4s around the sides. Hmm but wait! What of these garrish buttons under the screen. no no looks more like some random android was the father. I'm sure apple could have sued this chinese company for something there too. Sooooooo, who gives a rats behind?

Re: Blackberry Z10 could be banned in China.
I hope RIM doesn't have to go through any serious legal disputes before the fans in China, or anywhere, can enjoy the new BB10 devices. That would be unfortunate.

Re: Blackberry Z10 could be banned in China.
The Chinese going after anyone for copying is comical. They have zero respect for IP or patents. Also there were leaks of London back in November 2011 and early 2012 so they can easily prove they didn't copy anything!
But wait, November 2011, there was a leak of a Blackberry 10 phone already.
BlackBerry London: is this the first RIM phone with the BBX OS? | The Verge
It's an obscure chinese phone that no one has ever heard of. No one really cares.
I also believe RIM's prescence in China has been fairly small. China's tech market, has always been a difficult one. From Google to Facebook to Apple. No one has ever had an easy time getting into their markets.
Saw another photo posted by someone in the comment section.
Indeed, there are striking similarities to the outline and physical screen and handset ratios. - 01-13-13, 03:57 AM #11
What's funny is no mention when this device was designed. We know the London concept have been around since 2011 when it had flat corners then we saw the flat black leaks in january of 2012 with rounded corners. RIM didn't copy anyone this device may have been the one doing the coping as it also has traits of the iphone
RIM's lawyers will roll over and play dead for the Chinese Government as they did with BASIS International Ltd over the use of 'BBX'. "BASIS says they built up the BBX trademark over the last 25 years to stand for platform-independence. They claim that RIM's attempt to use the name for their operating system would cause irreparable harm, usurping BBX's platform-independence and permanently associating it with the BlackBerry ecosystem." (Source: RIM sued over BBX trademark).

I am also in China and keen to get a Z10. I am assuming that it will work in the same way as current BBs, simply contracting a BIS service from China Mobile? I heard that phones only work in China if the the same model is also in sale in China (something to do with type approval) but I am not sure if that is right.
One other key issue is whether or not BB10 is compatible with VPNs. Anyone know? I am currently using Android, which can (usually) connect to commercial VPNs for accessing Facebook, Youtube etc.BlackBerry Bold 9780 (little used currently), Samsung Galaxy S2 for personal use, iPhone 4S for work (no choice given)

Re: Hydraulic Top Link "Homemade"
Hmmm,,, I gotta think about that one. If running my brush cutter and carrying the front of it with the 3pt I wouldn't be able to run the tilt cylinder in float. So if the right side of the cutter hit high ground it wouldn't be able to ride up over it.
Yeah, I definitely want the FD valve. My tractor currently has an SCD valve and a FD valve. My SCD valve works great for running ground engagement equipment like a wheel disc or field cultivator. Everything else I do with the FD valve.Richard

Re: Hydraulic Top Link "Homemade"
Yes you would have some problems with the mower if you tried to use the float feature. I hadn't thought about using the slot float function with a mower. I am always thinking in the grading mode. You are right, it would be best to have both. Still think that you should just bend the clevis in the press and then mill out the slots. Weld on some 1/4"x 1/2" for the guides and you are all set. Makes for a very nice clevis, actually better than the OEM unit.

"Of course I'm not miming," she announced, and claimed that the show's producers are far too professional to allow such a thing to happen.
Nail Wins Libel Claim Geordie actor Jimmy Nail has been paid an undisclosed sum in damages after a local newspaper made alegations about his behaviour during the filming of the revival of Auf Wiedersehen, Pet. It was claimed in the "Sunday Sun", the Tyneside Sunday tabloid newspaper, that he had demanded to be moved to a more luxurious hotel than the one which housed other member of the cast, tat he refused to make a personal appearance in newcastle because he was not being paid a fee, and that he was "rude" to "Sunday Sun" columnist Karen Wight when appearing on her show on Galaxy FM radio.
In a statement read out at the High Court, the newspaper's publishers, the Newscatle Chronicle and Journal Ltd., admitted that there was no truth in any of the allegations and said that they had paid a large but unspecified sum to Nail in settlement.
Although best known for his appearances in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, Nail also starred in the TV crime drama Spender, and played Magaldi in the film version of Evita with Madonna.

Now it has been decided that Rowan will double up and play the part - "He almost knows it already," a spokesperson said.
The run is completely sold out because of the attraction of the leading actor, Ralph Fiennes.

run_formwusreg_CH.sh denormalises and writes the area means to the file wusreg102.dat.
The reconstructed output does not exactly match the original (though it is very close), possibly due to higher floating point accuracy of modern machines.

Unbelievable. The heat index at MSP reached 118 at 4 pm Tuesday, just one degree away from the all-time heat index record of 119, set in 1966. It felt like 120 at Eden Prairie, 121 at Moorhead.
* Dew Point hit 82 on the hour (which may be the official reading at MSP). But in-between hours the DP rose as high as 84 F. According to a contact at MSP International, "MN Climate Office will have to review and determine if 84 F. stands. In the meantime it's 82F, since it was on an hourly METAR."
Most Humid Day On Record In The Twin Cities. It's official: the dew point hit an astounding 84 at 3:21 and 3:27 pm, to set an all-time record for the most water ever observed in the skies over MSP. We'll have to see if the 84 number stands (it took place between hours), on the hour the dew point was 82. The MN Climate Office will have to verify, as early as Wednesday, whether the new record is 82 or 84. We've had 3 days/row with dew points at or above 80. Some meteorologists theorize that standing water on the Missouri (and "sweaty corn) over southern Minnesota) may be injecting more water into the air. Dew point values are 10 degrees higher at MSP than along the Gulf Coast! Take a bow, you are living through historic heat (and humidity). Wednesday may bring a high of 100 degrees in the Twin Cities. Factor in a dew point of 76-80 and it could easily feel like 115. Mercifully a cooler front knocks the dew point to near 60 by Thursday, meaning HALF as much water in the air as today. Relief is about 36 hours away.
* Heat index reaches 118. All-time record for heat index at MSP is 119, set in 1966!
82 Dew Point at MSP at 2:29 Tuesday Afternoon. A friend of mine, who is an official weather observer at MSP International - forwarded this screen shot to me - proof that the dew point really did hit 82 in the Twin Cities. Whew...
* Severe storm reports from the local NWS office for the storm that rumbled through around midday can be found here.
Nagging Severe Risk. SPC has much of Minnesota and Wisconsin in a "slight risk" today. The immediate threat has passed - but strong/severe storms may redevelop later today, especially north and east of the metro area.
Doppler Rainfall Estimates. Some 3"+ rainfall reports were calculated, using Doppler radar algorithms - the supercell storm that dived southeast into the metro dropped some 1-1.5" rainfall amounts locally.

Are Slipping iPod Sales Bad News for the Recording Industry?
Over at PaidContent they're making a bit of noise about some thinking by analyst Mark Mulligan that says a slip in rising iPod sales is bad news for the record industry. It's an interesting idea, but basically misses the point.
The fuss is over Mulligan's data on iPod sales versus installed iPod user-base versus time. It rather fabulously shows how the iPod sales figures exploded after the ground-breaking device was released in late 2001. In 2005 the graphs for installed base and sales really began to split—Apple released new iPod versions during that time, which people continued to buy, but many users kept hold of the older ones (of course) until they were either hopelessly outdated or wore out. The user upgrade cycle seems to be about two years, according to Mulligan.
So far, so unexciting. The iPod has been ridiculously successful, capturing 73.8% of the MP3 player market (by Apple's figures, revealed yesterday), and Mulligan acknowledges it's good news for Apple—"this is what device sales are all about." But PaidContent has jumped on Mulligan's grim conclusion for the recording industry: "the key dynamic in digital music sales is changing direction. The number of new potential customers arriving in the marketplace is slowing." Mulligan's conclusion targets the companies that rely on Apple, and argues that digital music sales will echo the slowing growth in iPod sales and eventually plateau, forcing the music industry to find new revenue-generating paths.
And that's where this thinking all falls down a bit. Because the slowing iPod sales are simply a reflection of the same growth curve every revolutionary type of device goes through (Google for "product adoption curve" and you'll see). Successful new gizmos arrive, typically simmer quietly for a while, then experience explosive growth until they occupy significant market space—everyone knows about them, everybody has one...so then the rate of sales growth declines. That's because the market is of a finite size: There are only a limited number of people joining the digital market place because there are only a limited number of people. And new customers are still arriving anyway—just at a reducing rate.
Then there's the smartphone issue—stirred up most dramatically by Apple itself. As smartphones get smarter, more powerful and more multifunctional, then they'll act as both digital cameras and MP3 players too...which will ultimately cannibalize the MP3 player market. So slipping iPod sales are mirrored by soaring iPhone (and other smartphone and music phone) sales—devices which are still a vehicle for people to access digital music. And there're also the people who happily download tracks from iTunes or Amazon or elsewhere, and never take them beyond the confines of their PC or home theatre PC setup—they won't show up in the iPod sales figures at all.
So of course, the number of new people arriving into the digital music marketplace is going to slow down—how could it not? And basing this bad-news analysis on iPod sales alone is missing some of the key industry drivers. Just as the recording industry had to embrace declining vinyl sales as the CD arrived, and declining CD sales as the MP3 arrived, it'll have to innovate to keep the MP3 revenues up. There's no surprise, or particularly doomy message, here at all.

I love music! To me, it's a way of life. From listening to playing to writing and of course teaching. I grew up with music at school and home. My dad was a piano player and teacher so music has been a part of my life since day one and I want to share what I have learned. Everyone has a unique musical talent and I enjoy helping them find it. I believe that anyone can be an excellent musician. Playing an instrument should be a fun and creative adventure. Whether it's strumming at home, playing out in the clubs, or writing the next big hit, I will do my best to get you there! My musical life began when I was in 5th grade and my dad bought me a saxophone, which I played for over 10 years. I quickly learned how fast I could improve if I simply kept playing. When I hit my teen ...
I specialize in teaching and performing Country, Blues, and Rock n Roll (to name a few) along with a variety of other musical styles. Because of my experience and educational background, I am able to help my students learn what they "need to know" in order to play the songs they want to play. Students will benefit from my unique teaching methods. I won't waste any time learning things that don't apply to your personalized objectives. You tell me what you want to be able to do and I will teach you what you need to know to get there. Here is some more information about my experience and educational background. I've been a working musician almost my entire adult life. I'm a student of the guitar as well as a teacher. Here is a little about my background. I started teaching guitar ...
I've been playing and singing music professionally for about 20 years. As a family man and father of two, I also I earn my living and support my family with music. I have a very student-driven teaching style, work with students of all ages, with focus on helping the student achieve his or her individual goals, small or large. I try to keep the lessons fun but focused at the same time. I bring a balanced and personalized teaching style to my lessons, based on a well rounded education and wide range of real-world life experience. I have a B.A. in Liberal Arts and have performance experience on many different fronts, from local rock cover bands to Top 40, from acoustic soloist to fronting a nationally touring Metallica tribute.

Sepia Girls
After a long and frustrating session, trying to get a good shot of my girls, the only good shot turned out to be the one with their backs to me. This shot is a couple of years old; they aren't as difficult to shoot now. With a camera, I mean.

Re: Tiller, rudder misalignment on Cal 24 Hunt
I sailed a '78 Cal 25-II, Lapworth design for many years. I believe the Hunt's came out a little later.
These were very rudimentary boats if you ask me.
The rudder design on our Cal was simply a rudder post with 1 bolt that went through the post and connected the tiller head to the post.
I don't know if yours attaches the same way. I did find some photos of the Hunt Cal, but nothing that had a clear shot of the tiller attachment to the rudder, but I think it is something very similar. If so, I don't see how they could be misaligned, it was one thru bolt that held the two pieces together and than the tiller attached to the same fitting.
Are you sure it is misaligned, or perhaps the tiller itself is bent?
Courtney is My Hero
If a man is to be obsessed by something, I suppose a boat is as good as anything, perhaps a bit better than most - E.B. White

Absolutely LOVE the color. Perfect red for any season. The problem lies with wear. Always produces BIG chips within 2 days. OPI unfortunately didn't get the formula right with this one. Going to try Zoya Rekha; very similar in color and I am finding their formula is consistently better.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Medium, Warm

This is a super gorg red! Its like santa red!!! Perfect for tis season! I love the color and like all OPI colors they last soooo long without chipping... at least 1 week. While it looks like tomato red/fire engine red, frankly there are so many dupes out there .. so splurge if u want to, but if ur budget conscious, get a cheaper version..(psst!! there are so many)

I absolutely love this color! It's the perfect balance between pink and red and it stays on for like 6 days without a top coat! It's almost worth the super expensive price of OPI nail polish but at the same time I think they would sell more if they lowered their price a bit. Otherwise, I highly recommend it!

This polish is the definition of perfection. Perfect formula, perfect color, perfect brush. There is absolutely nothing bad I can say about the polish. Well...actually I feel like the OPI packaging could have looked better (think essie, butter london, chanel etc.)

This is not a true red, if you're looking for a true red go for opi red (I'm my opinion a true red has more of a blue undertone) I am a yellow toned asian girl nc20 and I find that blue based reds look too serious and too mature on me (just on me for some reason) so I found one that has very slight orangey tones (you can't tell) and I prefer it. It doesn't look as garish or "villain like" as true reds do (again, on me only) When I think of orange reds, i instantly think of Ronald mcdonald which is a turn off, but this one isn't like that at all.if you're very warm toned like me I def recommend this, it will look sexy and more effortless (how could red look effortless? I mean less garish). This seems to be a very popular red on here, and I could see why. It's a nice, non serious, flirty and sexy red. If you're cool toned, i suggest opi red. On my yellow toner skin, opi red stands out too much on me which I don't like.

This is so pretty on toes! It's the only red I use! I wear this in summer or whenever I'm going away from home to visit family and friends or go on vacation.

OPI is my favorite nail polish brand, because they are good quality, stay on longer than any other brand, and it doesn't hurt that I get a professional discount when I buy them. This is one of my favorite red nail polishes ever. I don't like shimmery, glittery, or pearly polishes, I prefer creams, or jellys. This is the perfect true red crelly! It has a high shine glossy finish.

I'm a lover of red nail polishes and have many in my collection, but Big Apple Red is the one I find myself reaching for over and over again. This is the perfect, true red color. The color itself is to die for and the application is flawless. Let the positive reviews speak for themselves on here...you can't go wrong with this in your collection!

I have so much love for this nailpolish! I'm a huge fan of red nailpolish, but I could never find that one shade and brand that was perfect for me..until I received Big Apple Red as a gift. To start off with, this red is extraordinary and I get many compliments on how lovely the colour is when I wear it. It's a legit apple red colour and it's bright and beautiful. Some people find red nailpolish an intimidating colour to paint with, because if you apply too much to the nail, it streaks, and if you paint a little bit over the skin, it's noticeable, but with this nailpolish, you will have none of those worries! It's so easy to apply, as this nail polish does NOT streak, it dries quickly, and the nail polish brush is a great size (not too thick and not too thin), allowing applying the nail polish to the nail a much easier job because it won't go all over the skin. Big Apple Red lasts quite a long time on the nails without chipping (maybe 5-7 days) , which for me, is great! The packaging of O.P.I is sophisticated and cute, but we all already know that :p This nailpolish is a little expensive, but it's totally worth it to spend the extra and have a divine red nailpolish in your collection :)
Overall this nailpolish is perfect, as it's a beautiful shade of red, it doesn't streak, it dries fast, lasts quite a few days without chipping, and it's not too intimidating to apply. I highly recommend this product <3

Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. This young adult novel follows Bella, a 17 year old girl, who moves to Washington state and meets a handsome but mysterious boy. She soon realizes that he is a vampire but she falls in love with him anyway. It is a gothic romance filled with tension, passion, and high voltage chase scenes as she is tracked by another band of vampires. A wonderful romance for teens with a penchant for vampires. I can't wait to read the next volume in this trilogy!

Formal Analysis of a Fair Payment Protocol
Cederquist, Jan and Dashti, Muhammad Torabi (2005) Formal Analysis of a Fair Payment Protocol. In: IFIP TC1 WG1.7 Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust (FAST), World Computer Congress, August 22-27, 2004, Toulouse, France (pp. pp. 41-54).
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 765kB |
Abstract: | We formally specify a payment protocol described by Vogt et al. This protocol is intended for fair exchange of time-sensitive data. Here the mCRL language is used to formalize the protocol. Fair exchange properties are expressed in the regular alternation-free mu-calculus. These properties are then verified using the finite state model checker from the CADP toolset. Proving fairness without resilient communication channels is impossible. We use the Dolev-Yao intruder, but since the conventional Dolev-Yao intruder violates this assumption, it is forced to comply to the resilient communication channel assumption. |

Ozzy Osbourne Writing Health Advice Column For Rolling Stone
Ozzy Osbourne has extended his medical credentials - he's now offering health and diet tips and life lessons as a monthly columnist in Rolling Stone magazine.
The rocker hit the headlines earlier this year when he started offering medical advice to Sunday Times readers in the U.K. and now he's offering American fans the wisdom of his hellraising life in music magazine Rolling Stone's new Ask Dr. Ozzy column.
In his first piece, published in the new issue of the publication, Osbourne offers tips to a Hawaiian desperate to give up beer and lose weight and a Los Angeles fan who has just found out her teenage son is surfing for pornography online.
Ozzy also weighs in on a Turkish fan's vertigo issues, suggesting he "go to bed, drink only water, then get up and walk around in circles for a bit. If you're still dizzy, let me know."
He adds, "I thought I had vertigo... I went to the doctor, and he said, 'Mr. Osbourne, the problem - as far as I can tell - is simply that you're very, very drunk."

"Resource Description and Access (RDA) is the first major revision of cataloging rules since Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition (AACR2) was introduced in 1978. What might this change mean? RDA could enable library specialists to help users more easily identify, find, and access the information they want ... This book traces the development of RDA, explaining why it was needed and how it was developed. The basics of the conceptual models for RDA are covered, showcasing the origins of the structure and vocabulary of RDA. It then compares AACR2 to RDA and looks at specific changes in the cataloging code. The author also addresses how this development may enable library data to be housed on the Semantic Web and provides practical advice that librarians and catalogers can act upon now to prepare for RDA"--P.

Going beyond the Lagoon system from Solomon Technologies is the Fischer-Panda Whisper Prop system. The electric motor is in a small pivoting pod under the hull just like on all the new ocean liners. Noise is reduced even more and it's a simpler drive system without the thru-hull prop shafts. Also the motor is efficiently cooled by the surrounding water. I believe that system is available on Bavaria. Think of a trolling motor on steroids. Plus since it pivots you don't need a bow thruster as much.
These systems are best engineered into a new design where the still heavy large battery banks and electrical cabling can be placed optimally and intergrated with the generator for cruising distances.
On the down side when those batteries start to fail there is going to be a very expensive swap out, just as with the Prius.
Another very interesting player in the market with good looking engineering is Glacier Bay with their OSSA Powerlite generators and propulsion motors. They have a good write up on electric propulsion on their website. Below them are a bunch of suppliers selling battle-bot and wheelchair motors with some packaging for yachts.

Three trainers snubbed by Hall deserve honors
Well, here we go again! The finalists for the Hall of Fame's class of 2013 came out ("Borel, Antley among finalists for Hall of Fame," March 1) and there is one trainer on the list. Only one problem, though. The trainer's name isn't John Campo, Billy Turner, or Jose Martin.
I would like someone, somewhere, to explain to me not only why they weren't on the ballot, but why they are not already in the Hall of Fame. Not taking anything away from this year's nominee, but there is no valid reason anyone can give me as to why one of the others are not there either with him or instead of him.
Just look at the records of these worthy candidates.
Campo: The Kentucky Derby and Preakness. Champion 2-year-old colt and filly in the same year, plus multiple stakes wins lifelong.
Turner: Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew and multiple stakes wins.
Martin: Three champions that I know of, plus many other stakes wins.
What is the protocol here, about getting into the Hall of Fame? Sadly, two of these deserving men, Campo and Martin, have passed away. Turner, though, is still active.
Whoever makes these decisions, please look at the stats, or is this just another popularity contest? The Hall of Fame nominators should be ashamed of themselves.

Fair Grounds music hits a low note
All of the nation's classiest racetracks have a bugler who summons the horses onto the track for each race. But you can drop the Fair Grounds in New Orleans from that group. After an historic 140 racing seasons, the track now plays a recorded "Call to the Post" as the Thoroughbreds leave the paddock.
Gee, it must be difficult to find a horn player in the cradle of jazz and hometown of Louis Armstrong.
Charlie Chapple - Hammond, La.
Does anyone know when the Daily Racing Form shows 3 calls on the leader's time and 4 calls on the beaten lengths, which ones out of the 4 do you use to align with 3 leader's time? This happens sometimes when there is a 5 furlong race.
Of course it's a popularity contest. It's also similar to radio trivia contests cept much less fun. The elite want you to know who IS great, because YOU don't know who is great.
