Additional Location Information
The Cottage is located in a small hamlet 2 kms from the village of Plesidy and 8 kms from the bigger village of Bourbriac. It is 20 mins. from the medeival town of Guingamp and the main N12 motorway. Please take care whilst driving through this quaint hamlet as there are young children who live and play there. The North Brittany coast is only 45 minutes drive away and the fashionable seaside resort of Binic is 30 miles and can be reached within 30 - 40 minutes on the motorway
In Plesidy you will find a boulangerie and a local "spar" type shop called Votre Marche. There is also a great little restaurant that serves excellant 3 course lunches with wine for around €10 ( only open at lunchtime though ).It's a pleasant walk from the cottage to this restaurant and this usually takes approx. 45 mins walk each way
Bourbriac has a pharmacist as well as the usual boulangeries, charcuteries, banks, post office and small supermarket, the majority of these being situated in the main square in front of the very grand and beautiful medieval church, whose spire can be seen from afar and which contains in the crypt the relics of St. Briac.
The nearest large town is the regional capital of Guingamp with its medieval centre as well as a fine choice of hypermarkets. It also has some very good restaurants, including a traditional Breton Creperie.
There are Breton and international festivals all year round in Bourbriac, Guingamp, Lannion and Perros and in many small villages where you can see national and local costumes, join in with hypnotic Breton Dancing and above all hear the fabulous bombard trumpets and Breton bagpipes.
A short hassle free drive of around 30 to 45 mins gets you to many delightful sandy beaches, seaside resorts and ports such as Plouha, St. Quay Portrieux and the picturesque Paimpol. Not to be missed is the beautiful Pink Granite Coast between Perros Guirec and Trebeurden including the quite incredible geology at nearby Ploumanach!
Bourbriac has a freshwater lake and beach which permits paddling & swimming at one end and fishing (without permit) at the other.
The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking or cycling (or both!). Also there are waterfalls, gorges and freshwater lakes within easy reach. The Valley of the lovely river Leguer is close by. The single line railway to the coast , including the steam service between Pontrieux and Paimpol, can be boarded at Pont Melvez. There is horse riding nearby and an indoor pool at Guingamp, also a recently refurbished outdoor pool at St. Nicholas du Pelem.

Intermittent Subwoofer Static
I have a Cambridge Soundworks subwoofer attached to my Mac Pro and has just been emitting intermittent static noise regardless of whether audio is being played through the system. The static only seems to affect the subwoofer and not the satellite speakers and continues even if the input volume is turned down on the unit and in OS 10.5.7.
I have moved the power adapter to different outlets and away from other power cables but that has not made a difference. I have an APC battery backup unit about a foot away from the subwoofer, but it has been in a similar position for years without the static problem that recently began.
Any suggestions?
|Jul 30, 2009, 12:42 AM
Seems to me the problem must be in the subwoofer itself. Also I assume you have tried wigggling all the connectors and not found anything loose
I"d still bet on a loose connection one internal to the amp that drives the subwoffer. Maybe it's a connector that is loose or it could be solder connection that was not done right.
If you could give a better description of the sound it would help a lot.. Is it for example a soft hiss over the music, a series or loud clicks. Does the music cut in and out or is the noise over the music.
The worst case it you have to replace the plate amp in the woofer. They are not all that expensive.
|Jul 30, 2009, 01:56 AM
Cables were the first thing I looked at and I reseated all the connections. They feel solid, though I can't tell if there's something wrong underneath.
It's not a loud popping or thumping but sounds like static or crackling even when all system audio inputs are turned down or off, but only from the subwoofer. The tweeters make no such sound. The noise is not constant but consistently manifests itself every minute or two for a few seconds at a time
|Jul 30, 2009, 12:40 PM
I suspect the amp in the woofer. They are repairable buy you need test equipment and some debugging skills. None of the parts cost more the a few bucks. But without the equipment and skills people simply replace the entire amp modual and associated power supply. Cambridge may have an exact replacement but a place like PartsExpress might have something you like better, maybe? Here is an example ( http://www.parts-express.com/pe/show...number=300-782 ) Google will turn up more.
Before to do that. Check for suspect internal connectors and solder joints

May have isolated a cable problem
When sound is being pumped through it, the noise is barely noticeable and the sound never cuts out completely, it is very noticeable when the system is silent.
I have found that the volume control cable which plugs into the subwoofer might be where the problem is. It goes in solidly and isn't loose, but when it's disconnected the noise goes away. I'm going to have to see if there's a replacement part available (it's a fairly old unit).
At this point, probably cheaper to buy new rather than repair since I don't have the gear or the knowledge to do it myself.
|Jul 31, 2009, 01:00 AM
THe wipers on the pots get gunk on them over the years. need to be cleaned with contact cleaner. Some times you can fix it but simply rotating the knobs from full to zero volume and back about 200 or 300 times. But I have one on an older guitar amp that even long shots of cleaner can't fix. The part sells for about $1.80 but I'll use a "made in USA" replacement for $7

First impressions
These are the most expensive boots I have ever purchased and I spent around 3 months deliberating and trying to talk myself into buying them. Finally found them at a decent price and I couldn't be happier. As well as being a darn good looking boot they are by far the most sturdy, comfortable, and high quality boots I've ever owned. I guess you get what you pay for. I actually look forward to putting them on and lacing them up in the morning. They are that comfortable. I have hiked in slippery conditions with them and have not had any of the traction issues that so many others have reported. I love the fact that they are resolable and the cutout near the ankle on the boot allows for great flexibility without compromising ankle support. My least favorite thing about the boot is their weight. I say least favorite because I really hate to write it off as a con because with a boot this sturdy and durable one can't expect them to be featherweight. Overall I love this boot and HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for a serious backpacking boot that they intend to own for many years and have resoled instead of just trashing it once the sole is gone. I'd still recommend the boot to someone who isn't really into serious long distance or heavy load backpacking because it can't hurt to have a great versatile boot for dayhikes etc. That being said, if you're more of a dayhike or overnight camping kind of person don't be apprehensive about saving yourself some money and going with something less grand. Lastly I'd just like to mention that if you're like me and constantly go out of your way to buy a product that isn't stapled together in some dungeon factory in China by 12 year olds, you'll feel great knowing that this boot was made in Italy by a family owned company with some wonderful outdoor history...that alone justifies the price of these boots for me.
Pamela Richardson
Where would you go to get the boot resoled and approximately how much does it cost? My husband had 2 pairs that he has bought in the past and we just keep rebuying when the soles wear out.

about how much does a one way ticket cost?

about how much does a one way ticket cost?
and how much is a ticket from maihama to downtown tokyo?
Last edited by glenbot; 06-07-2009 at 11:12 PM.
There is no direct train from Narita to Maihama. You will have to either take the Narita Express(N'EX) into Tokyo Station or the Keisei Skyliner into Ueno. There are many other alternatives, but these are the most straight forward in my opinion.
There are several pricing options on N'EX. Best to just check out the websites.
JR-EAST:Access to Narita Airport
JR-EAST:Suica & N'EX
Here is the link to the Keisei Skyliner
From Tokyo Station you take the JR Keiyo or JR Musashino line to Maihama. The cost is 240 yen.
If you take the Skyliner to Ueno, you need to take the JR Keihin-Tohoku line to Tokyo Station and then transfer onto the JR Keiyo/Musashino line to Maihama. The cost is 290 yen.
An alternate route from Ueno would be to take the Tokyo Metro(subway) Hibiya line from Ueno to Hacchobori (160 yen) and from Hacchobori take the JR Keiyo/Musashino line to Maihama (210 yen).
If you do decide to buy the N'EX/Suica option for your trip from Narita to Tokyo, you can use the Suica card for your JR and Tokyo Metro payments.
Something else you didn't mention is the option of taking a bus. There is a direct bus from Narita to TDR (2400 yen).
Hotels in Tokyo Disney Resort (Maihama) Area⇔Narita Airport |Scheduled Services | Airport Limousine
The problem with the bus is that the last bus for TDR leaves at 5:05 PM. If you don't get in time for that bus, you will need to use the rail system or an expensive taxi ride.
I did not list the prices for the N'EX or Keisei Skyliner. The 290 yen is from Ueno <-> Maihama each way per person. It is 240 yen Tokyo <-> Maihama each way per person.
If you follow the links I provided, one way N'EX is is 2940 yen for ordinary car and 4430 yen for Green car. If you buy the combo special for 3500 yen, that gives you 1500 yen credit on a SUICA smart card plus you N'EX ticket. Buying the combo you end up paying 1500 yen for your N'EX, having 1500 yen credit on your SUICA for your JR line or Tokyo Metro travels, and 500 yen deposite on the SUICA card that can be refunded to you at the end of the trip if you turn the SUICA card back in.
The Keisei Skyliner has varying prices based on the time of day. For the majority of the time the one way fare is 1920 yen. It is cheaper than then N'EX, but you have to remember it takes you to Ueno station. There you have to catch a separate train to Tokyo station and transfer there to Maihama (290 yen). It of course will also take more time this way. TOTAL COST for taking Skyliner is 1920 + 290 = 2210 yen.
IMO, buying the Suica/N'EX combo is the best deal if you plan to use the trains on other days while in Tokyo. Buy the Suica/N'EX special for 3500 yen. Take the N'EX to Tokyo station. Transfer to Maihama using 240 yen of the 1500 yen credit you have on your Suica card. When you get to Maihama, you still have 1260 yen credit on your Suica to use for your other rides on the JR or Tokyo Metro.
Oh one last thing. They have recently changed things at TDR, so you can also use your Suica card to pay for the Disney Resort Line (monorail).

Thanks! you are amazing.
i'm planning my trip right now and need to include all the transport cost.
when i saw the price of a 7 day jr rail pass my mind shattered at how expensive it was!
thanks for the info on this combo pass
I believe that you'll have to take the train downtown first and then transfer. The best thing to do is simply take the shuttle bus from the airport; that is only about $24/person.
Rule of thumb I tell people is...
If you are planning to travel round trip on the Shinkansen(bullet train) from Tokyo to Nagoya or beyond (Kyoto, Osaka, etc.), then the Rail Pass is worth it.
"There is no direct train from Narita to Maihama. You will have to either take the Narita Express(N'EX) into Tokyo Station or the Keisei Skyliner into Ueno."
"There is a direct bus from Narita to TDR (2400 yen).

The problem with the bus is that the last bus for TDR leaves at 5:05 PM. If you don't get in time for that bus, you will need to use the rail system or an expensive taxi ride. "
Am I using an invisible font or something???
However, in my opinion, if you arrive in time to have the direct bus option, I would take that, especially if you have a few large suitcases to lug around. Each transfer means lots of stairs to climb with those heavy bags. (Not all stations have escalators or elevators). And traveling on the JR Yamanote Line (from Ueno to Tokyo) or on the Hibiya Line (from Ueno to Hacchobori) can be tough during rush hour. So if you have luggage, that's another good reason to take the bus instead.
Also keep in mind the station transfers:
Keisei Ueno-> JR Yamanote Line Ueno (across the street, short walk)
Keisei Nippori-> JR Yamanote Line Nippori (really close, but not sure if escalators)
Keisei Ueno-> Metro (Subway Hibiya Line) Ueno (a bit of a walk)
JR Yamanote Line Tokyo-> JR Keiyo Line Tokyo (really, really, long, long walk. It's like you're walking to another station down the line)
Metro (Subway Hibiya Line) Hacchobori-> JR Keiyo Line (average transfer walk)
Last edited by Moving Sidewalk; 06-08-2009 at 10:34 PM.
It is somewhat of a walk as Moving Sidewalk correctly pointed out, but it really isn't that bad. If you are doing it with luggage, just make sure that they are on wheels and you will be fine.
True that Roger55. Hehehe.
If I was bringing along luggage, I would choose the Tokyo Station long walk over the Hatchobori transfer. The most direct path between platforms at Hatchobori features long slopes and stairs with little elevator/escalator access. But then again, I might just be lazy. Hehehe.
Lots of construction going on at Nippori Station these days but there are escalators and elevators between Keisei and JR Lines.

Thanks for all the help! i plan on going in January when its colder. but to me its nothing. I'll be leaving -40 degrees Celsius and going to nice 0 degree weather
how are the crowds in January if i may ask?
With luggage or not, this is what I would do:
Take the Keisei Skyliner or the Keisei Limited Express train from Narita Airport to FUNABASHI Station. Walk 5 minutes to the JR Funabashi station (connected from the Keisei via escalators and bridge, easy to do with luggage), then take the yellow train one stop down to NISHI-FUNABASHI. Take elevator up to 3rd level and connect to Musashino Line to Maihama.
The JR trip from Funabashi to Maihama is only 210 yen.
The trip from the airport to Funabashi is somewhere between 700 yen (on the limited express) or 1,200 yen (if you do the faster Skyliner train).
The routing above is the fastest way from Narita Airport to TDR, and it is much cheaper than going to Tokyo station or Ueno station. Take it from someone who does the trains like a local man would.

US Yachts - 27'''' - 1982
I co-owned a US 27 with my brother for quite a few years. Generally they are a good boat. The windows tend to leak, but are easily sealed. We found the construction to be better than anticipated.
As to sailing ability. The boat sails beautifully. We had her on Lake Erie for over 3 years and sailed in some very rough conditions. We had no trouble when other boats were being damaged due to the conditions. The boat points higher than most and sails with a very light helm. The bad rep Bayliner had due to the Buccaneer line unfortunately followed undeservingly to the US Yacht line. In my opinion they are much better built than the Hunters of the time, equal to the Catalinas. If you can get one for a descent price get one.
One thing, the cockpit is a little small, but because of this they have the best interior rivaling most boats up to 32'' long.
By the way I currently sail a US 21.
Pearson did build exactly the same boat for 1 year, identical down the fabric used in the iterior. Here is a URL for the Pearson version.

Well i've just been checking out the forum when i noticed many people asking about a necro/monk build. Well i've been using on that works quite well and I am quite fond of. It consists of a Death Magic/Healing spells combination. I focus my attribute poings in to death magic maxing it out and put 5 points into soul reaping for extra energy and put the remaining into healing bringing it to 11 i think. With runes and what not I have
Death Magic 16
Healing Spells 11
Soul Reaping 6
With this combination i have these spells
Animate bone horror
Animate bone fiend
Deathly Swarm
Heal Area
Heal other
Healing Breeze
i find this technique works in PvP as well
I find that having both bone fiend and horrors produces the best combination. Bone horrors take the damage off of your guys and bone fiends seem to dish out good damage and i find that they don't 'degenerate' as fast. I use deathly swarm as my main form of damage while i wait for corpses to start appearing. With my high enough healing and healing spells i can keep others alive. I find vengence is a beast for keeping your warriors up or raising a monk when needed most bringing him back full health and energy for 30 sec till you can drop a full rez and get him healed. I just practically help the main monke to keep our team alive. Once the first body drops i lay a bone fiend on it, adding to the team total damage. The whole time using Deathly swarm to deal damage. I then put a healing breeze on my fiend and keep him alive. Once the battle is over in matches where there are multiple teams i rez a combination of about half bone horrors and half bone fiends. They gather close around you and i use Heal Area liberaly keeping them full health until the next fight. (sooner the better cause they degenerate faster and faster) when they start to die off faster i put healing breeze on the dieing ones. I pretty much just keep em battle ready till there needed. This strategy works pretty well and my team always praises me for keeping the team alive. I find i usually rez people a lot while the monk is keeping the main tanks healed. I get a lot of thanks. Overall i really like the build and don't differ from it much. I've experimented with Death Nova for extra damage when my minions die but i haven't liked it as much as just having both bone fiends and horrors. Well any ideas comments would be appreciated just thought i'd let all you out there looking at the Ne/Mo build know that THEY Rock!

Interesting statement considering the source. These law abusing cops in Elburn actually admitting there is something that they do not know much about. The Elburn Police I have encountered have barely accomplished a High School education let alone the ability to enforce the law. Now they are given new responsibilities?
Police, fire chiefs agree on burn permit changes
ELBURN—The Elburn Police Department currently issues burning permits for outdoor fires. However, Police Chief Steve Smith suggested during the July 12 Public Safety Committee meeting that the Elburn & Countryside Fire Department should do the inspections for burn permits.
"We are inserting the Police Department and the village administration into something we don't know as much about,†Smith said.
Fire Chief Kelly Callaghan agreed and said the Police Department still would enforce burning code violations.
Village Administrator Erin Willrett said village staff will bring the issue to the Village Board for a possible change in the municipal code allowing for the Fire Department to conduct burning permit inspections.
"I think it's a great idea to work together,†Willrett said.

Thomas, your comment really doesn't have a leg to stand on. Your "law abusing" comment may have only applied to about 10 years ago when Elburn police were accused of corruption. This is no longer the case. The new chiefs of police since have brought back respect for the department. There have been no cases of corruption or abuse since. If you think there was, I'd love to hear it. Elburn has one of the lowest crime rates at 10.3 per 1000, making Elburn the 13th safest town to live in Chicagoland. I would not attribute this number to the Elburn police not having the "ability to enforce the law" as you say.
Regarding the education, how could you possibly determine whether an officer has "barely accomplished a High School Education" just by encountering them. Do you spend your freetime researching educational levels of local police officers in your freetime? I didn't think so. I believe this is just another unbacked accusation. Many of these officers have college educations and are veterined police officers who have been protecting communities successfully for decades. Thanks to these men, I can feel safe in my community.
I actually think it's a wise decision that Steve Smith is delegating this burning permit issue to the fire department. Doesn't this completely make sense? This is a responsible decision for the chief.
I commend the entire Elburn police department for doing a tremendous job at protecting our community. Unfortunately there will always be a few such as Thomas that will not recognize this fact and attempt to tarnish a great department.
That's a wonderful rebuttal Officer, however "law abusing" would be an accurate definition based on the fact that the marching orders that these soldiers work off of are based on entrapment and ticket quotas. Both of which make it miserable just to drive through town for groceries. Let the fine members of the Fire Department handle the task, at least we know it will be done without malice or favoritism towards the members of my community.
Again, all speculation, and no I'm not an "officer". Just because I don't share your bitterness does it mean that I'm a police officer. In other words, you think that if anyone in our community doesn't agree with your outlandish opinion, they MUST be police officers. Ridiculous!! Sounds like you're bitter for being caught for a traffic violation. These officers don't win a prize if they issue more tickets, just the comfort in knowing they're keeping our community safe. No one forces you to go through Elburn, and they wouldn't ticket you if you weren't breaking the law, so how is this "law abusing" and entrapment??
Really, this discussion is a waste of my time.
Elburnite….and yet you engage……
Apparently you do have the time, for starters. Secondarily I am an upstanding member of the community and a prominent business owner in the County of Kane. I am also a father of three and a grandfather of two grandchildren that also live in this community.
My grandaughter and myself were stopping at the local Jewel recently when we saw an Elburn officer engaged in a near argument with a mother at the Redbox. She apparently was briefly parked in the firelane while returning a movie and had children in her mini van. The officer (who strangely resembled Blago-both physically and intellectually) was shouting at her in front of her kids as she explained that she had only been there for a brief moment. He then threatened to cite her for child endangerment and potential arrest. Wow, that was necessary. You're right….this fellow is definitely a hero with the communities best interest in mind.
Hey Thomas, last time I was at Jewel it was illegal to park in the firelane. Also, sounds to me that the mother was too lazy to get her kids out of the car to park in a legal spot to return her movie. Why don't people just follow the rules and then they won't have a problem with the police. I for one appreciate the Elburn Police Department and the fantastic job they do.

Although you won't be selecting either a new president or a new Congress, you may well have the opportunity to vote on something that can affect your city or state: municipal bonds.

Desires: What We Truly Want
The following is the beginning of the article, A God of Created Desires. Credit and link will be provided below
St. Ignatius of Loyola knew, better than most, of the human capacity for self-deception. He was a former knight, was arrested a few times, was involved in many a bar brawl, and alluded to having committed just about every crime imaginable. The slow-to-convert Ignatius discovered in his own life, and eventually for all of us, who we most truly are. From his conversion experience, he stressed praying out of one's deepest desires, to enter into conversation with the Spirit of God, in seeking what it is that "I most truly want." For example, at the start of each of the prayer periods of his Spiritual Exercises, Ignatius requests that the one making the retreat, should: "Ask for the grace I now seek…" Intriguing isn't it? Why should I ask for what I want? Don't I already know what I want? Doesn't God already know what I want? How is the absolute creator of all swayed by my needs and my requests?
Ignatius' argument behind this way of prayerful boldness is that we humans are creatures into whom our loving God has implanted divine desires; that we are made to long for God, and he alone can satisfy our hearts. It also reminds us that we are not computerized automata, but have desires of our own, as well as the ability to enter into loving collaboration with the Maker of us all. Yet, as wayward children, we have let our holiest desires be clouded by our skewed and, oftentimes, selfish expectations, by our more immediate needs, and by our desires for popularity and recognition, for physical allure and material comforts. We can have conflicting desires, like St. Augustine's famous prayer early on in his life, "Grant me chastity, O Lord, but not yet!" But, the divided heart will never be happy, for it will never get what it wants. The secret, then, is to go further, cast into the deep, and allow ourselves to discover our deepest, holiest desires. In order to do this, Ignatius has us settle quietly into what it is we most deeply seek. Once quieted, we hear the voice of the Spirit, "deep calling unto deep," as the Psalmist expresses it. However, to know our deepest desires, and not just our superficial wants, we need to be brought into union with the creator of our desires.
The desires within us, which everyone has, have been learned through other people with whom we spend time. We all live in families, in social structures, in communities, and in circles where some things are valued over others; where some items, and ways of life, are presented to us as more attractive, more desirable than others. We are not the self-made people we think we are; each of us is a collection of learned desires and traits. Especially as Americans, we pride ourselves on being "self-made," self-developed beings who discover who we most truly are. Like Prometheus standing up to the gods in autonomous rebellion, each of us makes our own way in life. Ignatius would see this differently: we are given our identity, each of us has been named, we have been brought into God's family through baptism, we have learned—rightly or wrongly—a particular way of life, and so on. Whereas we tend to glorify our autonomy, Ignatius would always have us see our truest selves as relational, crying out for community and love. The deepest desire of every human heart is to be known, to be loved, and to love forever.
We all learn early on, however, that true love is elusive, and that relationships can be risky. We, instead, have all learned how to hide behind the mask of self-sufficiency. Like H.G. Wells' Invisible Man, we hide our empty selves with the bandages of success and wealth, achievement and power. We are afraid to let anyone encounter the self we all know is just under the surface, so we wrap that invisible presence around with illusory accomplishments, status, and gossip. We tend to blame others for our shortcomings, afraid to look too directly at our own brokenness. So instead, we cover up our hearts with little luxuries and distractions, anything to keep ourselves, and others, from seeing who we really are. We may show only bandages to the world, but they're better than nothing.
To overcome this attachment to our illusory self, Ignatius would advise us to do two things: first, recognize that only union with God is going to satiate and satisfy our deepest longings; and, second, see how union with God, in his becoming human, can now be approached through that humanity, Christ Jesus—the Way leading to God the Father. The Ignatian approach is never, therefore, a "God-and-me" solitary affair, and it is never a spirituality that is going to insist on "God alone." It is a spirituality that always incarnates and, therefore, leads us back into the world. As baptized members of the body of Christ, we are to recognize that our God is now human, now in space and time, a God who, through our Mother Mary, has gotten so close, as to become one of us. God is no longer simply "out there," God surrounds us. We are called, therefore, to find God in all things! To allow God to "fit" into our daily experience, we must let our souls be magnified. This is why Ignatius linked desires with the spiritual gift of magnanimity, large-souled-ness. Only the large-souled person will be "big" enough to live above all rancor and jealousy, to live in union by the Spirit, and no longer with his or her own petty littleness.

Peter Russell, a British author and futurist, has a mesmerizing world clock on his website.
This clock doesn't tell time, it measures global stress issues, such as population growth, species extinctions, deforestation, and CO2 emissions. I reset the clock, sat down to read the paper, and came back an hour later. What happened in my 60 minutes of leisure time?
In autoracing, the term 'redlining' refers to the maximum speed an engine and its components can operate at without causing damage to the system. Go over the redline and the damage is usually widespread and severe. Watching the numbers on the world clock continue to grow, can there be any doubt that there is a planetary redline for each of these metrics? We don't know where the upper limits are, but it goes without saying that our world can not support limitless population, greenhouse gas emissions, desertification, or oil. If we knew these upper limits, and watched as the needle slowly approached the redline, I wonder if we would take the issues more seriously.
On the climate front, the carbon meter currently reads 385 parts per million (ppm). Many of the world's leading scientists estimate that 450 ppm is our self destruct point. Still others feel that we need to drop back down to 350 ppm, and have already hit the redline — we just don't know it yet. The number is rising by 2-3 ppm per year, and to get atmospheric CO2 to stop rising, scientists believe that global emissions need to be cut by at least 50%. Whether we are approaching or have passed the limit, we clearly need to take our foot off the accelerator. (You can sign the Care2 petition in support of a strong US climate bill here.)
There is of course a second definition of redlining, which is the practice of denying or increasing the cost of necessary services (health, food, jobs) to residents in defined racially determined areas. Sadly, in an indirect way the world clock also measures this. As the metrics increase, it is many of the poorest in the poorer countries who will be impacted most, exacerbating the differences between 'haves' and 'have nots'.
Because of both redline issues, we need to start thinking more holistically about our planet. As Russell says;
"The real crisis we are facing is not an environmental crisis, a population crisis, economic crisis, a social crisis, or a political crisis. It is, at its root, a crisis of consciousness. A crisis is an indication that the old mode of operating is no longer working, and a new approach is required. This is true of a personal crisis, a family crisis or a political crisis. In the case of the environmental the old way that is no longer working is our self-centred materialistic consciousness. It may have worked well in the past, when we needed to provide ourselves with the basic commodities necessary for our individual well-being – but it clearly no longer works today."

Those of us who have lived long enough and also those who livedd near vulnerable spots should bear witness to the accumulation of changes that lead up to disasters. Just one item that may alert the deniers who like to take ski trips:
How many places have shut down because of several years without snow? and several years with snow changing to ice making skiing impossible?
How about Rhode island where snow removal equipment is rusting where years ago there were 3 foot blizzards.
How about valley towns that are no linger protected from floods
because they are increasingly torrential.
How about hot spots such as in the Oklahoma panhandle that have been spreading as uninhabitable.?
How about some common sense to see th clear cutting of forests especially rain forests and the tonnage of coal burning?
Throughout the ages civilization has created poop and someone else has had to clean it up. Do you deniers want to stop now from cleaning up our own poop?
redlining the planet. all comes back to population sustainable population. As population increases, it increases consume of fossil fuels, timber, food. leads to deforestation, global warming emissions
Um...corporations stopped being collections of people and became the toys of billionaire CEOs a long time ago. Corporate interest is entirely different than in the interest of the people who work there. The every day working person is getting fired while the same small group of people make more and more money running various business' into the ground, putting people out of work, and destroying the environment. While they give themselves million dollar bonuses to do it. So yes, big corporations are a big part of the problem.
The only way all this will change ( global warming) is that we all ( the world) pray to God for forgiveness. God is upset with the way things are going on this earth. The wars have to stop. Alot of peoples are being killed. The visions i had years ago are coming true. I pray to God everyday; but all ( the world ) have to change, and pray. Too all whom don't beleive in God; Beleive!; because there is a God, and he is watching all that is going on; on this earth every day. God, he comes to you in the spirit. God is a Holy Spirit. God love us all, and he is upset. I know this because he came to me in the spirit. Thank you God for coming to me. Thank you father. Father, you must see something in me Father. I'am crying. God came to me. He choose me. There are others he choose too. I know this; because i meet an Angel whom save my brother daughter ( she was sick). She's well now, and doing good. The wars have to stop. The killings have to stop. America, we have to repent of our sins ( the world also); but America (my country) we upseted God. God showed me a vision, and this is why i know he is upset. If you don't beleive me it's ok; not everyone understand when a person have a visions. Just pray to God to protect you from the evil spirits ok. I love you all; and don't forget to pray to God; and pray to God for forgiveness of all your sins ok. Talk to you all later.
Well the planet has as far as we know had a CO2 concentrattion in the atmosphere much more than 350pm of course there have been a number extinctions and we don't know if they were linked to the eleveated CO2 levels or whether there was some other cause. I doubt the planet is trying to get rid of us, and yes of course we should be more cautious. However we may have prevented another ice age. I think it is really still somewhat up in the air, but overall it would probalby be a bad idea to raise the CO2 concentration by an order of magnitude.
The big thing is we are engaging in a great experiment with the whole planet and we don't really know what we are doing. We ought not count on the hope that the planet has homeostatic mechanisms we haven't discover3ed yet.
Have FUn,

P.S. By the way I have always wondered about the validity of those statements that go bad things happen every seconds, minutes or other short unit of time.
Yes, the ridiculously large numbers of Cows raised to feed the over-population of over-eaters who eat far more red meat and drink far more milk than good nutrition dictates, those cows do produce a large amount of CO2 emissions. So, we should drive our cars less AND consume less meat and milk!!!

Comment: Re:You can't make this shit up. (Score 1) 775
So you have no way of knowing what it was like to be uncircumcised, and yet are able to conclude there are zero side effects without anything else to compare circumcision to? I'm guessing you and logic are not close friends.
You might want to read into the functions the foreskin was created through many millions of years of evolution to provide. Or read the opinion on the procedure from countries that do not practice it routinely. Ones unlike the US, which started it to curtail the scourge of excessive masturbation. Being circumcised myself, I'm horrified to have a naturally occurring piece of my body removed without given a choice in the matter.
Interestingly enough, men's rights groups aren't the only ones who are interested in the topic. Some of the strongest anti-circumcision voices I've heard have come from dyed in the wool feminists.

Kerala Education and Culture Minister M.A. Baby on Tuesday offered to mediate to end the standoff between veteran Malayalam actor Thilakan and film outfits over his recent outburst against superstars if both sides agreed to come for a talk.
The Minister's offer came in the backdrop of the claim of literateur Dr Sukumar Azheekode that superstar Mohanlal has called him over phone to convey his readiness to talk and settle the matter. Mr. Mohanlal, however, denied that he had made any such commitment in his talk with Dr. Azheekode.
"If both sides are willing to come round for talks, the Government is ready to mediate to resolve the issues", Mr. Baby told reporters here.
Mr. Thilakan, facing the ire of cine artiste's body 'Amma' after his remarks against superstars, said he was willing for a talk to resolve the tangle with certain conditions. The controversy rocking the Malayalam filmdom started a month back when Mr. Thilakan was dropped from a movie after he was booked for a role.
Mr. Thilakan alleged he was denied the role under pressure from a superstar and charged outfits like Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA) and the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA) were acting like "mafia groups".

Sophie has a new best friend and his name is Adam. Yes, I did say "his". And what a cutey pah-tootey he is! He has got the sweetest little personality and is outgoing and loves Sophie as much as she loves him. They see each other every Sunday and Wednesday and they have a ritual, after church, of going and playing on the stage and hanging over the side of the baptismal. But that little four week old tradition just got nixed by Daddy-o this past Sunday and rightfully so. They play "prince and princess" in the nursery on Sunday nights and they love hiding in the cribs. Sophie yells and cheers for Adam at his basketball games and they sit on the bleachers when the game is over like they're two high school love birds or something. This is not easy to watch my friends! She just turned three and he is a whole year older than she is.
We've already had to have the "you don't kiss boys" talk. I didn't see that one coming until another few years but when I opened the nursery door and saw her planting a big one on a fifth grade boy I knew we had to have us a little talk and quick! We took care of that; so much so that she asked if she was allowed to hug her brother the other night. Now that was an overstated point if I've ever made one.
I know I'm acting all bah hum buggish but I really do think it's cute that her best friend is a boy and what a cute thing he is.

Staff Reports
TIPP CITY — Tippecanoe's Aaron Hughes isn't pitching like a freshman.
Stebbins can attest to that.
Hughes was perfect through 4 2-3 innings Friday against the Indians, while the Red Devils piled up seven runs over the first three innings to put away a 7-2 victory in a makeup game in Central Buckeye Conference Kenton Trail Division play.
Hughes went 6 1-3 innings and struck out three and improved to 2-0 on the season as the Devils moved to 11-1 overall, 6-0 in CBC play.
"Aaron threw great," Tippecanoe baseball coach Bruce Cahill said. "He's a freshman throwing to varsity hitters, which means he's only going to get stronger and older. But he threw a really great game today."
Zack Blair led the Tippecanoe offense, going 3 for 4 with two RBIs, Cameron Johnson and Jared Rindler were each 2 for 3, Evan Gilliam was 2 for 4 and Ben Hughes doubled.
Tippecanoe hosts Tecumseh Monday to kick off a CBC Kenton Trail series.
Newton 4,
Arcanum 0
ARCANUM — Reid Ferrell flirted with a no-hitter and pitched his second consecutive one-hitter Thursday, and the Newton Indians shut out Arcanum 4-0 on the road in Cross County Conference play.
Ferrell struck out four and walked one in the game, taking a no-hitter into the seventh before the leadoff hitter finally ppicked up a single.
Newton held a 1-0 lead entering the top of the sixth, but a suicide squeeze brought in a run to widen the gap a little and Rhett Gipe put it away with a two-run double — much more support than Reid Ferrell turned out to need. Wade Ferrell was also 2 for 4 in the game for the Indians.
Newton played a doubleheader Friday night that was not complete at time of press. The Indians host Milton-Union today at 11 a.m.
• Softball
Greenville 4,
Covington 3
GREENVILLE — Against a quality team like Greenville, mistakes must be kept to a minimum.
But Covington — which has reached the state tournament three straight years — committed an uncharateristic five errors on defense Friday, and the Green Wave (12-2) capitalized and stole a 4-3 victory in Greenville.
"We gave one away today," Covington coach Dean Denlinger said. "Tough game."
Arianna Richards was 2 for 3 for the Buccaneers (9-2), Morgan McReynolds was 2 for 4, Ashley Cecil was 2 for 2 and Jessica Dammeyer was 1 for 3 as the Buccs outhit the Wave 9-5 in the game.
Morgan Arbogast took the loss on the mound, her first of the season.
Covington hosts National Trail Tuesday in Cross County Conference play.

IT Project Management Directors in the United States see excellent average salaries — about $121K annually. Total cash earnings of IT Project Management Directors range from $87K on the low end to $168K on the high end; the final amount can include bonuses and profit sharing proceeds that occasionally exceed $25K and $18K, respectively. Career length and the particular city each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. Almost all enjoy medical while a large number get dental coverage. Vision coverage is also available to most. Generally, women make up less than a third of all IT Project Management Directors who answered the questionnnaire. Most IT Project Management Directors report high levels of job satisfaction. The numbers in this rundown were provided by PayScale's salary survey participants.
Add this chart to your site:
Copy and paste this HTML:
Information technology (IT) project management directors are in charge of managing information technology projects for their organization. They oversee business processes and performance management projects, as well as relay IT concepts and technical ideas to non-technical personnel. They lead a group of IT professionals to reach all project goals in a timely manner, helping increase productivity while minimizing the use of company resources. IT project management directors must ensure maintenance and support services are provided as needed, as well as perform functions related to strategic planning, budgeting, and information security program development. In addition, they use a personal computer to keep project information up to date and communicate with team managers.Read More...
IT project management directors supervise the teams that create and maintain software development processes and standards. In addition, they provide coaching, support, and discipline to these team members as needed. They must be able to prioritize and direct multiple assignments simultaneously in a fast-paced environment. They also build strong business relationships with external vendors and partners.
At least a bachelor's degree in information technology management, computer science, or a related field is required for this job. Previous years of work experience in a directing capacity can be helpful. Industry and leadership certifications are a plus. IT project management directors must be organized individuals with strong interpersonal, leadership, and communication skills.
Survey results show that IT Project Management Directors use a fair number of skills. Most notably, skills in Strategic Project Management, Microsoft Excel, Project Management, and Microsoft Word are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that are correlated to lower pay, on the other hand, include Microsoft Office. The majority of those who know Microsoft Office also know Strategic Project Management.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience seems to be a major factor in determining the incomes of IT Project Management Directors. Although inexperienced employees take home approximately $93K, those who have five to 10 years under their belts benefit from a six-figure median of $111K. For IT Project Management Directors, 10 to 20 years of experience on the job amounts to an average salary of $136K. IT Project Management Directors who have stuck around for more than two decades see earnings that are only slightly higher than those of folks who have worked for 10 to 20 years; the more senior group makes around $140K on average.

An average Night Auditor in the United States can expect to take home roughly $10.39 per hour. Pay generally varies between $8.18 per hour and $13.88. The most important factor affecting compensation for this group is geography, followed by the company and tenure. For the most part, Night Auditors enjoy their work and report high levels of job satisfaction. Health benefits are not claimed by all — the larger part lack any form of coverage — but two in five have medical insurance, and roughly one in three have dental, too. Men working as Night Auditors who took the survey just slightly outnumber women at 52 percent. This snapshot results from replies to PayScale's salary survey.

Night auditors work at the front desk of hotels during the night (or third) shift, so they usually work between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. Night auditors generally balance accounting books, complete and transmit daily management accounting reports and supporting documents, and transmit and settle credit card batches. While it is common for night auditors to handle account matters for the hotel, it is not uncommon for them to also handle functions of the front desk staff. They can be found acting as a guest service representative doing room reservations, stocking linens and supplies, delivering notices to guests, answering phone calls, and providing guests with towels, blankets, pillows and other items as needed.Read More...
On a given day, night auditors generally come in on their shifts, assist the front desk staff with anything they may need help with, and review the books. After verifying all transactions, they close the third shift and complete an audit summary for the first and second shifts as well. They must be good with people, able to operate computers, registers and calculators, and have strong telephone and guest relations etiquette and skills. Although higher education degrees are not always required, it is generally preferred that night auditors have some accounting background.
Dominating the field, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, Holiday Inn, Comfort Inn and Suites, and Hilton Garden Inn are top firms with a reputation for hiring a great number of Night Auditors. The biggest paychecks can be found at Doubletree Hotels — the median salary there is $26K. Night Auditors can also look forward to large paychecks at Residence Inn By Marriott ($25K), Courtyard by Marriott ($25K), and Hilton Garden Inn ($24K).
Comfort Inn and Suites, Hampton Inn and Quality Inn & Suites are three other employers with a reputation for below-average pay, showing salaries around $19K, $19K, and $20K.
Survey results show that Night Auditors use a fair number of skills. Most notably, skills in Computer Service, Bookkeeping, Auditing, and Microsoft Office are correlated to pay that is above average. It is often found that people who know Auditing are also skilled in Customer Relations.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Night Auditors with a lot of experience do not necessarily enjoy more money. Relatively untried employees who have less than five years' experience make $21K, but folks with five to 10 years under their belts enjoy an appreciably larger median of $24K. For Night Auditors, 10 to 20 years of experience on the job amounts to an average salary of $24K. People who have worked for more than 20 years report a median income of $25K, which is barely higher than the median for folks with 10 to 20 years of experience.
For those looking to make money, Night Auditors in New York enjoy an exceptional pay rate, 51 percent above the national average. Night Auditors will also find cushy salaries in Washington (+42 percent), Los Angeles (+27 percent), San Diego (+14 percent), and New Orleans (+10 percent). With compensation 14 percent below the national average, San Antonio is not known for hefty paychecks and actually represents the lowest-paying market. Employers pay around 6 percent less in Tampa and 3 percent less in Memphis, below-median salaries for those in this field.

Five things we learned today
- Apparently, modeling in those John Varvatos ads gave him some ideas: Scott Weiland is teaming up with English Laundry on a menswear line, appropriately called English Laundry by Scott Weiland.
- In more rockers-designing-clothes news, Jay Reatard, MGMT, and (of course) Mötley Crüe have created T-shirts for Playboy's Rock the Rabbit program.
- Evidently, everyone's looking for work these days: MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice are even putting on a concert together, in (where else?) Orem, Utah.
- How popular is the iPhone? One former member of the Talibanhardly known for their early-adopter waystotally digs it.
- Speaking of phones, Garmin and Asus have followed up news of their new collaborative venture with their first new design, the Nÿvifone M20 (pictured). Look for the handsome, WinMo-enabled phone to hit shelves later this year.

Western Oklahoma State College is embarking on an exciting and challenging journey with the beginning of a new strategic planning process that will culminate with a comprehensive strategic plan by January 31, 2015.
"Western Oklahoma State College has entered into an agreement with the Voorhees Group, LLC, to facilitate comprehensive and campus-wide strategic planning services. In light of our ongoing efforts toward quality improvement, our administration believes strongly that now is the time to engage the campus and community in this critical and essential planning exercise," said Dr. Phil Birdine, Western President.
The college has invited an external advisory group comprised of area educators, stakeholders and partners to join with the internal advisory teams at the college to begin work on the plan.
Three focused sessions scheduled for October 1-2, November 18-19, 2014 and January 8, 2015 will bring the external and internal groups together for interviews and public forums aimed at shaping Western's new strategic plan. In addition, Western's Strategic Planning Committee, Faculty Senate and key administration will meet regularly to review and refine data gathered from surveys and planning sessions.
The community is initially encouraged to complete a brief, confidential and anonymous online survey, composed of five questions about Western's future. The survey may be accessed at: http://www.wosc.edu/westernswotsurvey. The survey will close on September 19, 2014. The final survey results will be posted to www.wosc.edu/strategicplanning and shared along with other data and information throughout the process.
To see the latest news about the strategic planning process, please visit our strategic planning website at www.wosc.edu/strategicplanning or join our Facebook group: WOSC Strategic Plan 2014. You may also email questions or comments to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Western thanks you for your support and input regarding the future direction of our college.

Latest U.S. Open Golf Championship Stories
Matt Kuchar's par Monday on the sixth playoff hole was good for the title and the $1 million first prize at the Turning Stone Resort Championship in New York. Kuchar took advantage when Vaughn Taylor sent his drive on the fourth hole played Monday into the water at the 13th hole at Atunyote Golf Club.
Tom Watson's 2-under-par 68 Friday gave him a two-stroke lead after 36 holes at the Champions Tour's Senior Players Championship in Timonium, Md. The first-round leader was steady Friday on the East Course at the Baltimore Country Club, making two birdies and 16 pars, with his best shot being a 50-foot birdie putt at the par-4 13th hole. His 6-under 134 total leads Jay Haas (70), Craig Stadler (65), Bob Tway (68) and Mark Wiebe (67), all tied for second place at the halfway point. I enjoy...
Phil Mickelson's Tour Championship title returned him to the No. 2 spot in the men's world golf rankings released Monday. Mickelson shot a 65 Sunday that erased a 4-shot deficit and won the tournament, the final installment in the PGA's FedEx Cup playoffs.
Tiger Woods won the 71st title of his PGA career Sunday -- an eight-shot victory in the BMW Championship in Illinois. Woods, who led by seven going into the final round, shot a 3-under-par 68 for an overall score of 19-under 265. Jim Furyk (66) and Marc Leishman (69) tied for second at 273.
Tiger Woods shot a 9-under-par 62 Saturday to break his own course record and take a seven-shot lead after three rounds of the BMW Championship. Woods, gunning for his fifth BMW Championship title, stands at 16-under 197 after 54 holes.
Jeff Sluman won the Wal-Mart First Tee Open in California for the second straight year Sunday, finishing at 10-under-par 206, two shots ahead of Gene Jones. Sluman had a 4-under 68 in the final round at Pebble Beach. Jones closed with a 70 for 208. It was very difficult out there with the wind, and the greens were like concrete, Sluman said.
Jim Furyk and Sean O'Hair shared the lead Saturday after two rounds of the PGA's Deutsche Bank Championship. Furyk, who shared the first-round lead with Steve Stricker, shot a four-under 67 Saturday to match O'Hair, who had a 64 Saturday at 12-under-par 130 after 36 holes. Marc Leishman, who shot 62 Saturday to come within one stroke of the course record, is tied for third with Retief Goosen (67) at 10-under 132. World No.
Steve Stricker and Jim Furyk shot 8-under 63s Friday to highlight a burst of low scoring and share the lead after one round of the Deutsche Bank Championship. Tiger Woods, meanwhile, found himself seven shots off the pace. In the second of the PGA Tour's four playoff tournaments, Stricker put himself in excellent position to take the lead in the race for the FedEx Cup. Stricker came into the tournament trailing only Woods in the points race and a victory this week would vault Stricker into...
Sergio Garcia and Chris Riley were tied for the lead Saturday when the third round of the Wyndham Championship was suspended by darkness. Garcia and Riley were at 13-under par through 10 holes. Garcia chose not to hit a 9-foot birdie putt on the 11th green after the horn blew to suspend play.
Tiger Woods and Y.E. Yang were tied for the lead at the midday point of the final round Sunday in the PGA Championship in Minnesota. The world's No.

Use of Milrinone to Treat Cardiac Dysfunction in Infants with Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: A Review of Six PatientsPatel N.

Background: Pulmonary hypertension and secondary cardiac dysfunction are important contributors of morbidity and mortality in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Milrinone, a phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor, may be useful in this setting for its combined actions as a pulmonary vasodilator and to improve systolic and diastolic function. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the effects of milrinone on cardiac function and pulmonary artery pressure in infants with CDH. Methods: A retrospective review of echocardiograms performed on infants with CDH who received milrinone was performed. Tissue Doppler imaging velocities were used to assess systolic and diastolic function. Pulmonary artery pressure was assessed from the pattern and velocity of ductal shunting. Results: Six infants with CDH and severe pulmonary hypertension were identified. Systolic and diastolic myocardial velocities were reduced in the right ventricle (RV) and interventricular septum (IVS) at baseline. In the 72 h after commencement of milrinone, there was a significant increase in early diastolic myocardial velocities in the RV, accompanied by increasing systolic velocities in the RV and IVS. Oxygenation index was significantly reduced, blood pressure unchanged, and ductal shunt velocity minimally altered over the same time period. Conclusions: Milrinone use was associated with an improvement in systolic and diastolic function in the RV, corresponding to an improvement in clinical status.

No elected mayors in Encinitas
On the ballot in November will be a measure to directly elect the mayor of Encinitas. Having an elected mayor is a dangerous proposition, given the current way the city council operates. The mayor is in complete control of council meeting agendas. A mayor elected for a four-year term could stymie council discussion or action on issues important to the citizens of Encinitas.
What is needed is a formalized system for the office of mayor to rotate on a yearly basis among the members of the city council. Such a system would cultivate an atmosphere of respect and collaboration. Alternately, the rules for setting the agenda for the city council need to functionally allow for matters to be placed on the agenda, even if the mayor objects.
Until or unless this happens, vote no for an elected mayor.

Sherman column location was out of line
I protest placement of this week's Lola Sherman column buried on page three of the Local section and ending up next to the obituaries, as its main subject was the doings of an elderly man ( "Nearly 80-year-old ballplayer still in the swing of things," Aug. 8 ).
As an active senior, Tom Stern deserves more respect. The decision for this placement was out of line.

No more Mr. Nice Guy
It's time to flush the president's "nice guy" image. Some find him witty, charming and eloquent. Assuredly, he is stylish, energetic, svelte and has a powerhouse wife and two adorable children.
Here's the problem: We're not hiring an emcee for a talent contest. There's an old proverb: "Handsome is as handsome does." So let's review his "nice guy" credentials. A "nice guy" does not:
Pick a hopeless insider gaffe-meister party hack for second in command.
Begin his term encouraging schoolyard taunting: "We won and you didn't."
Slight old allies and cozy up to nauseating dictators like Hugo Chavez.
Make cynical remarks completely contradicting his public statements when he thinks he's off-mike.
Promise to be a unifier, but then vilify decent, hard-working citizens who belong to the tea party or are exceptionally wealthy.
If over 8, blame others for his mistakes and whine about every misfortune that comes his way.
Promise "hope and change," but deliver the same old corrupt back-room deals for his "signature legislation."
I could go on for pages, but the loud and clear conclusion remains: No more Mr. Nice Guy.

Christmas came early

Disappointed that Alegre not focusing on issues
Whereas it's encouraging to see another Latino, Richard Alegre, enter the race for Escondido City Council, it's disappointing that instead of focusing on issues, his main reason is to unseat Olga Diaz ( "Lifelong resident becomes fifth city council candidate," Aug. 3 ). Mr. Alegre states that he has not been active in Escondido politics, despite his long residency in our city, yet has taken the bait from the likes of Marie Waldron, Sam Abed, Jeff Schwilk and others who demonize illegal immigrants.

Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
The popular culture of urban and rural tsarist Russia revealed a dynamic and troubled world. Stephen Frank and Mark Steinberg have gathered here a diverse collection of essays by Western and Russian scholars who question conventional interpretations and recall neglected stories about popular behavior, politics, and culture. What emerges is a new picture of lower-class life, in which traditions and innovations intermingled and social boundaries and identities were battered and reconstructed.
The authors vividly convey the vitality as well as the contradictions of social life in old regime Russia, while also confronting problems of interpretation, methodology, and cultural theory. They tell of peasant death rites and religious beliefs, family relationships and brutalities, defiant peasant women, folk songs, urban amusement parks, expressions of popular patriotism, the penny press, workers' notions of the self, street hooliganism, and attempts by educated Russians to transform popular festivities. Together, the authors portray popular culture not as a static, separate world, but as the dynamic means through which lower-class Russians engaged the world around them.
In addition to the editors, the contributors to this volume are Daniel R. Brower, Barbara Alpern Engel, Hubertus F. Jahn, Al'bin M. Konechnyi, Boris N. Mironov, Joan Neuberger, Robert A. Rothstein, and Christine D. Worobec.
