"Workforce of the Future" (LGO conference panel)
Panel discussion at MIT LGO conference on "The Future of Manufacturing in the U.S." (May 8, 2012)
Moderator: William D. Green (Accenture)
Panelists: Denise Johnson (Caterpillar), Cindy Estrada (United Auto Workers), Thomas Kochan (MIT), Diana Tremblay (General Motors)
How have the economic downturn and recovery impacted labor-management relations, K-12, vocational, and university education, and other factors that shape the ongoing development of an effective American manufacturing workforce? How are the interests of multinational corporations aligned with the objective of maintaining vibrant manufacturing employment as a key element in the U. S. economy? Can the U.S. learn from the important role of vocational education in other developed economies?
The panel addresses the roles of different stakeholders—government at all levels, industry, unions, and educational institutions—in contributing to dialogue around the key challenges in creating more high-wage manufacturing jobs, especially in the advanced manufacturing sector.

Before his 2005 move to Charlottesville, Va., where he died Monday, Feb. 3, at age 90, University of Pennsylvania professor Thomas P. Hughes was a familiar presence in Chestnut Hill, bicycling to and from the early service at the Church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, or buying crackers and cheese for the intimate gatherings of neighbors and Penn colleagues he hosted at his house on Millman Street.
It wasn't just any house. Dr. Hughes' home was that icon of modern architecture known as "Mother's House," designed by Robert Venturi for his mother, Vanna. Dr. Hughes and his wife, Agatha Chipley Hughes, an editor, teacher, and artist who died in 1997, bought the house in 1973, the year Dr. Hughes was hired at Penn.

Baker Street hotels
Baker Street
For fans of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, a visit to Baker Street while visiting London is a must. Baker Street is to be found in the Marylebone district of the City of Westminster in London and is named after the man who designed the neighbourhood, William Baker, during the 18th century. What was once an exclusive residential area has turned into one of the more successful commercial districts in London famous for being the location of the Beatles' Apple Boutique, Despite the fact that 221B Baker Street never existed, a plaque with that address was installed at the Sherlock Holmes Museum, located further down the street. Baker Street has been immortalized not just in fiction but in songs as well.
- Walk through Regent's Park, which is near Baker Street and one of the most famous Royal Parks in London.
- Visit the London Zoo near Baker Street, which is the oldest scientific zoo in the world, and houses everything from big cats to penguins, gorillas and butterflies.
- Walk around the corner from Baker Street to Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum, which is the home to many uncannily realistic likenesses of famous people from all eras and countries.
Passengers on the London Underground should get off at the Baker Street station, which is known as one of the oldest continually running train stations in the world. Once at street level, Baker Street is best explored by foot so that visitors can stop at the many sights along the way. A popular activity is to take walking tours of the area, which has been home to many famous people, fictional or otherwise. For those with abundant energy, bicycles can be hired, but people should be wary of the sometimes-heavy traffic in the area. London buses will also take the visitor to and from Baker Street to other locations around the city.

London Eye: Skip the Line Tickets
Reviewed by: Debora M, July 2015
Good rest for your feet while still taking in all the sites!
Reviewed by: Suzanne L, June 2015
The skip the line feature was great. The London Eye experience was good, provided a great opportunity for photos and seeing the 'lay of the land.
Reviewed by: MaryAnn M, June 2015
Fantastic 360 degree view of the city from high above! The pods allow you to easily move around or sit if you choose. There are also a number of touch-screen pads located around the windows that show you what it is you're looking at. Very good.
There's also a spot near the end where you can get your photo taken with the city in the background, and then buy the photo at the end of the trip. A GREAT way to spend 30 minutes while in London.
Reviewed by: Goran K, June 2015

From the stage to the airwaves, Soosh*e! offers listeners a fresh, versatile perspective from the underground to the club scene. Studied as a percussionist with Sacramento Mandarins Entertainment and Sacramento Kings Corps and an accomplished Hip Hop producer/lyricist, Soosh*e! is also the latest voice of Sacramento's Hot 103.5.
Earning his stripes as an emcee, Soosh*e! first made his presence known in 2010 when his album First and Foremost trended on Tumblr. Since then he has become known throughout Northern California for his high energy hosting and captivating stage performance sharing bills with international rap icons ranging from Talib Kweli and Mobb Deep to Schoolboy Q, Ab-Soul, IAMSU!, Problem, and Dom Kennedy. His ability to translate to both mainstream listeners and backpack purists has found him on tour building fan bases from Los Angeles to New York City and receiving press coverage throughout the blogosphere including appearances on 2DopeBoyz.com and BayAreaHipHop.com.
Over 2014, Soosh*e!'s name began to ring bells in California music scene. In November of 2014 he was inducted into the illustrious Young California collective, amongst the likes of DJ Mustard, P-Lo, NicNac, and League Of Starz. Meanwhile, he and co-partner DJ Danny Cee were being accredited for breaking artists on the #NEWATNINEBOYZ show on Hot 103.5 in Sacramento.
Soosh*e!'s last full length album, Big Brother John, received acclaim from critics, being touted as one of the top five local albums of the year from Sacramento News and Review. Currently hard at work in the studio on his forthcoming project, Soosh*e! + Sake, the coming year promises to be a busy one for Soosh*e! (Insert joke about being on a roll).
You can find Soosh*e! hosting in the club First Saturdays at Parlare, Thursday nights at Mango's Thursdays, and on your radio hosting the Served Fresh Show Monday through Friday 7pm-Midnight on Hot 103.5 FM.

David Lynch to release album
First comment. Stoked.
wow this could be sick
I had to reread that title twice. This should be interesting.
Could be interesting. His film sound is always impeccable.
Wasn't he the guy that played in Dokken?
This is going to sound like Perdition City.
Cool, I'm intrigued.
Wonder what kind of music hes going to put out.
First 2/3 of the album is gonna be great then the ending is just gonna be wtf.
I believe this is supposed to be more electro pop like his other stuff, but regardless it's gonna be spacey and huge just like his movies. Stoked.
i actually really wanna hear this.
So amped
Wasn't he the guy that played in Dokken?
Whoa.. interesting. Had no idea he wrote music.
btw, these are kinda old, but seeing as they're on the tracklisting i figure i should post them for those who haven't heard them:
To say that I'm really looking forward for this is an understatement.
Digging: Brannthorde - Auf Teufel Komm Raus
What the hell does this guy NOT do?
This is probably going to own.
produced by Sting
dude holy shit
What he did with Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse was amazing. Really looking forward to this.
Holy fucking shit, gonna be surreal as fuck.
Holy shit mindblown.
It'd be pretty funny if all the songs were just super plain and conventional - that'd be the easiest way for him to make everyone go wtf like they expect.
teenybopper pop jams
sounds interesting.
"First 2/3 of the album is gonna be great then the ending is just gonna be wtf."
I got it ComfortablyDumb.
Digging: Westkust - Last Forever
this is either gonna be weird as shit, or sound like Duran Duran
Digging: Slime Girls - YUMEMI/LONELY PLANET GIRL
Maybe he will bring back new wave weirdness
Digging: Main Attrakionz - 808s & Dark Grapes III
Hm... if these were DVD chapter titles, it sounds like a David Lynch plot, haha.
"First 2/3 of the album is gonna be great then the ending is just gonna be wtf."
this made me lol a lot
SO happy about this.
Oooh. this might be awesome. Good Day Today was great.
I hate the dude, doubt his music is any better than his crappy movies.
Digging: Carly Rae Jepsen - E MO TION
G-Fry is all over this.
I hope the first music video features a midget dancing in reverse.

Top news and emerging ideas in display advertising, delivered every Monday.
New Yahoo Stream Ads Fit Right In Line With The New Yahoo Experience
After launching the new Yahoo news stream experience in February, the company announced their newest advertising format today, Yahoo Stream Ads. Designed to offer an unobtrusive advertising experience, the stream ads are labeled by Yahoo as the "sponsored twin" to news feed articles, meant to deliver personalized content to users.
As a user performs more searches on Yahoo and engages with more content, their news feed becomes intuitive to their personal preferences. Along with Yahoo's news stream, Yahoo Stream Ads have been developed to deliver the same relevant content within the user's news feed.
"Advertising can, and should, enhance discovery in a seamless and effective manner. The more users spend time with Yahoo, the more relevant and personalized the content and advertising becomes," said Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer in today's announcement.
Along with the new Yahoo Stream Ads, the company also announced new Yahoo.com Billboard ads, an interactive ad format that includes rich content. Using the example of a movie advertisement, Yahoo explained how the billboard ad format could contain the movie trailer, links to more information about the film, and the option to buy movie tickets straight from the ad.

Narrow Streets, Open Minds
Amsterdam is beautiful, what's not to love: feels very European, bicycles and "coffee shops" are EVERYWHERE. The narrow streets are really neat, and the surfaced activities (prostitution, marijuana, public drinking, mushrooms) make the city much more happier and carefree. A great place to relax, and see beauty. I didn't find a lot of tourist attractions other than Anne Frank house, torture museum, but it is one of my favourite cities, if not my favourite. Absolutely beautiful.
Insider Tip:For those wanting to "see" the Red Light District, check out "Parak 118", instead. The torture museum is not that great, also, a waste of 10 Euros I would say, but the Anne Frank museum is incredible.

Nearly five hours after Quadstone crossed the finish line in first place, BP skipper Mark Denton and his crew sailed into Boston harbour at the offical time of 18:05:49 GMT.
With the wind blowing down the middle of the harbour the crew took about 45 minutes to travel from the harbour entrance to the finish line as they were forced to regularly tack across the harbour.
But as they finally completed the leg they were greeted by family and friends waiting on the quayside with spraying bottles of Champagne. Also greeting the team was the winning crew of Quadstone, dancing on the dock to the BP team song. In fact, among the first to climb onboard BP was Leg One-winning skipper Alex Phillips, who was greeted with a big hug from skipper Mark Denton who joked, "Well sailed, you buggers. I've been chasing you for days."
The last 48 hours have been anything but easy for the BP crew as they have continually fought LG FLATRON and Compaq for second place on the podium.
Crew volunteer Helen Couling summed up the feelings of the crew. She said: "It has been really frustrating getting to Boston ... working our socks off to keep ahead of LG and Compaq."
While just 24 hours before they reached dry land fellow crew member Lauren Ginn said: "It is still a race for the finish line with the other boats so close behind. We will be disappointed if we are not second."
The first leg has seen BP jumping around the position table. As the fleet passed the Start Point on the second day of the Race it was in third place but just one day later they were languishing at the back of the field.
For the next couple of days they joined Isle of Man as the most northerly boats, a tactic which obviously paid off as they were suddenly catapulted into sixth place towards the end of the first week.
Here they floated around the middle of the field for a few days before spending the last days of the Race vying for second position.
Now the crew are safely on dry land and able to revel in those things they have only been able to dream of for the past couple of weeks.
As their top ten wish list says -- proper food, toilets, beer and loved ones will feature very highly.
Earlier in the day Quadstone had won the first leg of the Race to the cheers of about 100 waiting family and supporters.
A windy morning helped them speed towards the finish line 19 days after setting off from Southampton, UK.
Now the race is on for third and fourth place with only a few miles separating LG FLATRON and Compaq.
The fight for fifth and sixth places is even tighter with VERITAS and Isle of Man just a mile apart at times.

First pattern grade two marksmanship lanyard. Unfortunately missing the button loop atop the plate so either needs a minor repair or can be used for display. Priced accordingly.

Unissued bayonet troddel or sword knot. The width of the yellow acorn cap is about 3.8cm. Clean and perfect. This color combination conforms to the 7th company. I believe the leather strap and slide indicate a grenadier guard regiment. Very nice tassel.

Interesting cigarette case celebrating German and Italian unity. The plate shows Mussolini and Hitler above an eagle holding both the fasces and swaz. Across the top is a banne reading VINCERE which translates to 'conquer' or 'victory'. The outside around the central plaque is painted to simulate tortoise shell. The inside is a green/aqua color. Condition is just about perfect with the bands inside in good condition as well as the spring clip...

This is a good looking double sided pennant which is made with a reasonably high degree of quality. If not for the nipping visible in the attached images it would be a real looker. The long edges are about 53cm and the short edge is about 18cm which makes this a nice, smaller size which usually works well for display purposes. The center swaz is a nice bevo weave and the outside of the white discs are nicely chain stitched...

Nice, original Demjansk campaign shield. This one is especially desirable as Demjansk was very much a Waffen SS (Totenkopf Division) affair. Surrounded and cut off from logistical support for an extended siege these fellows held off a significantly superior Russian force for most of the winter, fighting in deep snow and often counterattacking successfully when their perimeter was threatened...

Good looking postcard apparently in a German infantry barracks. The officer is going over a document while the landser clean their weapons and look tough in their spiked helmets. Lots of cool equipment and even cooler mustaches. Great postcard to add to an equipment display.

The RNST was the German agency that oversaw the governmentalization of the agricultural industry. The motto "Blut und Boden" translates to "Blood and soil" and was meant to imply that the blood of the "folk" was equivelant to the earth's soil and both were dependent on each other. Or some such nonsense meant to celebrate the connection of the "folk" to the nation's farming industry...

SA dagger by Gustav Wirth who is one of the scarcest makers of SA daggers. Really about as common as left handed chopsticks. Unfortunately this one is missing the scabbard but this is certainly the more important half. Conditionwise this one is a real cherry. Buttery smooth nickle crossguards fit perfectly to a surprisingly clean and unscarred handle. The blade also fits to the crossguard quite snug and the whole package has clearly been together fr the duration...

Very cool two photograph sequence of the destruction of a German sub. The cover slip on both is a warning to watch the release date. The first image shows the u-boat being bracketed by explosions after being forced to surface. The second photograph shows the water disturbance, oil slick and part of the conning tower showing above water after the sub was finished off. The descriptions are on the back of the release date warning and the photos are reported to have been taken November 10 1943...

Really nice Alcoso RAD leader dagger. Everything is nice and tight and clean and all fits together correctly. The grip on the logo side does have a crack. The good point is that this crack is the opposite from the blade motto so won't show in a display. The blade is very lightly sharpened and I honestly didn't even notice this until looking at the blown up images on the listing. Going back to the dagger it is even hard to see when looking for it. This and the crack are priced in...

Goodness, what a cool niche piece. This might not click with many collections but if odd aviation or Eastern European volunteer is of interest I don't know where one might ever find another example. This is an 835 silver hallmarked qualification badge for a Slovakian air force mechanic. A no doubter with a gorgeous uncleaned, untouched patina. Great item.

Jason and Cal's Excellent Adventure (aka Divide Ride 2010)
Hey all,
After a couple years of discussing this, my riding buddy/stepdad Cal and I will be heading out from SLC on Friday to begin our Continental Divide Ride, going from North to South. I've gathered a ton of useful information from advrider, so I figured it was only fair to do a ride report as we go, in hopes of providing something useful for the next guys. We've also got a bunch of family and friends who are interested in what we're doing, and also verifying that we are not dead yet. I'll try to keep this interesting for everyone.
For the uninitiated, the Divide Ride is an approximately 2500 mile collection of dirt roads that run from Canada to Mexico along the Continental Divide. It looks like this:
We're planning to complete the ride and get back to SLC within 14 days - will see how that goes. We've rented a box van to drive up to Montana. The bikes will NOT be in the van, since the rental company has rules against that. We've just always wanted to drive a box van. Hopefully the bikes will just magically appear near the Canadian border right when we get there. I've always been lucky like that.
In order to make sure that our shi*t is wired tight, we recently did a shakedown ride around the Ashley Nat'l Forest in Utah. This went well, and we uncovered a few missing links in our camping gear. I even practiced removing my rear tire from the rim with hand tools, just in case. Incidentally, this technique works like a champ:
My bike is a BMW GS1200 Adventure, which is a beast of a motorcycle. It is a little bit like riding a 100 hp recliner through the forest. Somewhat ridiculous, but it is by far the best bike I've had. Here's a pic from the shakedown ride:
Cal has opted for the F650GS, since he is no longer as tall as he was prior to the parachute accident a number of years ago.
I will not bore you with a total rundown of our gear, but in summary we've got GPS out the wazoo, cell phones, laptops, SPOT tracking device, satellite phone, topo maps, Adventure Cycling maps, and if all that is insufficient an iPad that will end this discussion. We've also got bear spray, a spork, and er, "other hardware" so don't get any bright ideas...
The intent is to camp and hit motels about 50/50. Will be interesting to see how well we stick to that. Motorcycle camping is awesome, but two weeks is a long time and I like showers.
That is all for now, I just wanted to get this established so I could send the link out to folks. I will try to be diligent about posting updates as we go.

I am looking forward to following you two. It might be a good idea not to include any pictures of the box van, or if you do at least have it be empty.
Good luck and ride safe.

Ok, leg one of the trip: Fly to Salt Lake.
The nice people of American Airlines wished me a safe and on-time flight, however they were vastly outnumbered by the grumpy, inept, mean ones so it looks like I'll get there three hours late. Such is life in the air these days.

Ok, got a bit behind, here's the scoop:
We're posted up at the Three Bears Motel in Lincoln, MT. Nice folks, free wifi. Walked to dinner at the Montana-something or other, and there was even a laundromat next door open until 9pm, which was nice as I wore the same pants for 4 days.
How did we get here? Queue the Wayne's World flashback music:
With American's help, I got to Salt Lake way late. Naturally, Cal was so excited to see me that he celebrated way late into the night. We set a target for hitting the road by 10am, which was somewhat unrealistic given that Cal got up at the crack of noon. Actually worked out fine since I had stuff to do to get my bike ready for primetime. Here's the obligatory "just before the ride" assfest picture:
Unfortunately, just as we feared, our bikes disappeared just as we were ready to board the box van. Not to be deterred, we jumped in the van and gave chase.
It's about 700 miles to Kalispell from Salt Lake, and despite the fact that the van had both AM -and- FM, the thrill of driving it soon wore off. Due to the late start we only made it to Butte, unfortunately just missing the main event at Evil Knievel days. Still, we had a seriously superb meal at the Uptown Cafe - highly recommend if you are in the area.
We got an earlier start on Sunday and made it to Kalispell around noon. As we suspected, whoever heisted the bikes was clearly headed for the Divide Ride, and we miraculously reconnected with them as we dumped off the van.
We headed for the border at Roosville asap.
Here are a couple of thoughts: There's nothing in Roosville. And, it is pavement on the way up, and pavement on the way back to Eureka. Very pretty pavement, but pavement nontheless. If I were doing this again, I'd skip it and instead go take a picture of whatever is at the Canadian Border just barely west of Glacier, about 8 miles north of FR-114.
Anyway, we loaded up some groceries in Eureka and headed for the hills. FR-114 is superb. Lots of forest, and I saw a bear about the size of a rotweiler.
Then remnants of forest fires.
Then more forest.
Red Meadow Lake would be an awesome place to camp, but unfortunately it was full of kids so we pressed on.
Fortunately we found an awesome campsite at Upper Whitefish Lake. As soon as the bikes were off we could hear loons, elk, and all manner of other stuff, and someone even us a pile of firewood. Saw a couple bald eagles too.
We're strongly cautioned that this is bear country, so we're supposed to take precautions, carry bear spray etc. Little do they know that Cal snores so loud that the bear refuse to come within a mile of where we're sleeping. I finally read the directions on the bear spray - I had mistakenly thought that you were supposed to spray it on the bear. Actually it turns out that if a bear is coming at you, the better approach is to spray your friend, thus incapacitating him and making him an easier target for the bear to eat, thus allowing you to escape.
We've got freeze dried food with us, but that evening we had steak and corn on the cob. Funny you don't see pine smoked beef on more menus. It was actually really good, and not just because I'd have eaten the ass end of a skunk at that point.
I should mention at this point Cal and I like wine. In fact, I'd like to give a shout out to our sponsors, Bota Box and ibuprofen. Suffice to say that a good time was had by all and we slept like Olympic sleeping champions.
By the way, Starbuck's Via coffee is perfect for camping. On the other hand, Mountain House freeze dried eggs are like eating little egg flavored sponges, assuming you carried the sponges in your riding boots. We'll stick with instant oatmeal from now on.
I'll post my routes at some point, but in summary we had no major mapping issues. If you're doing this, you should order the mountain bike maps for sure. There is a bunch of this route that you DON'T want to ride. If I'm going to be on pavement I'd just as soon blast down the highway to the next dirt road. Quite a bit of pavement on this part of the ride.
The section of the ride between Swan Lake and Flathead is outstanding. This is a shot of Swan Lake through the trees. Cal was reminded of his favorite ballet, and he did a little dance in its honor. Unfortunately my camera was not ready. Here's a shot of the lake through the trees:
The ride from Seeley Lake to Ovando was great.
We took a tip from Byways and rode over Huckleberry Pass to Lincoln, and it was one of the highlights of the day.
Cal also saw a bear just West of 83, but neither of us have been fast enough to get pics. Instead, here's a pic of a deer.
Holy crap, we have a really long way to go. The enormity of this ride kind of kicked in today. Ah what the hell - as a good friend of mine is fond of joking: There's only one way to eat an elephant...one bite at a time!
More to come.

Mother Nature! Bloody hell, interesting couple of days with plenty of ups and downs. We bid a fond farewell to Lincoln at the crack of 11am after an edible breakfast. I think the rest of the states may need to have a little intervention with Montana. I've never seen so many Meth signs before. And by signs, I mean both little things that make you think, hmm, I wonder if that person is on meth, and also big giant billboards saying, "Meth is bad" in some form or another. Gee, duh. Really Montana, you're a beautiful state, don't throw it all away.
Anyway, we headed up to Stemple Pass with signs of rain everywhere.
One little navigational detail if you are doing the ride N-S: On Lost Horse Creek Rd, you'll hit a fork and can take either Empire Creek Rd or Stay on Lost Horse. Take Empire. Here's a pic of where we stopped to turn around. It's steeper than it looks.
If it was dry and I didn't have cases and 100 lbs of crap on my bike I could probably get up this, but under the circumstances we went back to Empire Creek Rd. Much better.
Here's what it looked like on top.
Actually, I have no idea if it was the top. Kinda spooky riding along in the fog. It was so dense that we could hear some heavy equipment operating nearby, but couldn't see it - signs said some kind of "Reclamation Project" was going on. Here's a picture of me just before I got seriously pissed off because there is now a locked gate across Blossberg Rd (no signs), thus totally bogarting up our route.
Note that this gate is directly across Big Dog's tracks. Had it not been so wet I might have busted out the Mac for some reconnoitering, but instead we blasted over to Marysville, down to West Helena, and then West to Rimini Rd and picked up the route again. Missed a pass or two in the process, but we were burning daylight. Not very bright daylight, but still.
I anticipated that we might enjoy a little fukarwe on Rimini Rd since there is a gap in the Garmin road data right in the middle of the route between Hwy 12 and Basin. Often, but not always, this means there is no road, there's a gate, there's an interstate, etc. As Cal pointed out, maybe there's a reason we call this little hobby Adventure Riding. Surprisingly this time it meant that we could blast right over the muddy wet road dodging seriously huge construction equipment. One of the guys working there said that Rimini Rd is frequently closed right now due to some major project, but we were free to continue dodging his trucks.
We finally broke out of the rain and had a nice run of sunshine. Here's a pic of a reservoir and a road that does not exist.
Immediately after that we reconnected with the road and all was good for at least 100 yards, at which point we found a big gate (open) with a sign that said Mine Reclamation Project underway (or something like that), and a detour arrow to the left on another road that Garmin does not acknowledge. At least there was a sign with an arrow saying "Basin Access." Another mile or so down we hit a T in the road, another arrow for Basin to the right, and then another BIG sign saying the road to the right was closed...%$#@! In short, we tried a couple things that did not work before passing a guy in a huge 6 wheeled piece of equipment who was kind enough to tell us to ignore the Road Closed signs. In summary for those of you who may care, ignore the signs and ride Big Dog's tracks exactly. That said, there is a bunch of work going on in this area, so on various days the roads might really be closed. I would plan an alternate around the whole thing just in case.
Our plan was to ride the cattle access road south along I15 to Butte, but when we crossed to the west side of 15, we found a sign that said "Non-Mechanized Cattle Access". Now, technically we did not have any mechanized cattle with us so we felt we were legit, but we decided instead to take FR442 to the Lowland Campground, which turned out to be super nice.
Here's me calling Angela on the satellite phone. Kinda cool that this is possible.
Here's the kitchen - no steaks this time, but we do give freeze dried Shepard's Pie two thumbs up. That little stove rocks, BTW.
This morning we had a nice run from Butte to I15, made good time.
We also made real good time on the way to Polaris since that whole bit is freshly paved (mind the gravel). Unfortunately we hit a wall of red on the radar map at that point, so once again we let discretion be the better part of valor (what are the other parts of valor, by the way?) and hightailed it for a motel in Dillon to get out of the rain.
A homeless dude with a shopping cart could beat us at this pace, but what the hell, we're having fun. In honor of the fact that it is Wednesday, we are going to have dinner at the finest restaurant in Dillon. Think good thoughts for us, and there will be NO RAIN tomorrow.

Hey all,
Thanks for the good thoughts - we caught two days of absolutely perfect weather. Camped last night just east of Moran Junction, and tonight just outside Atlantic City, WY. No pics yet cause all I've got is one bar on the iPad...
Hoping for Steamboat tomorrow night, will update if so. Really hoping actually - haven't been a shower or any other cleaning apparatus in two days.
Just FYI, if you live between us and Steamboat, there will be NO RAIN tomorrow!

Asia's Small-scale Fishers Vulnerable to Global Fish Crisis, says New WRI Report
September 30, 2004 09:04 AM - World Resources Institute
In the rural provinces around Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake, the Tonle Sap in Cambodia, violent conflicts are increasingly becoming routine between small-scale fishers and operators of large- scale, commercial fish pens. The local fishers accuse the wealthy outsiders of having corrupt ties to the government and using destructive fishing methods. In turn, the commercial owners say that the independent fishermen poach their stocks.
Contaminated Swordfish Found in California Grocery Stores
September 29, 2004 01:49 PM - Sea Turtle Restoration Project
This week, new data was released by the Sea Turtle Restoration Project that shows skyrocketing mercury levels in swordfish purchased at grocery stores in Los Angeles, Sacramento, Orange, Sonoma and Marin counties. Stores in California and around the country continue to sell mercury-contaminated fish despite continued state and federal warnings that swordfish contains unsafe levels of mercury. Mercury levels in tested fish were measured in excess of 4 parts per million, more than 400% of the FDA's action level. Environmental groups are calling on grocers and restaurants to stop selling swordfish to the public immediately.
DNA Testing Used for First Time on Elephant Ivory
September 29, 2004 01:45 PM - International Fund for Animal Welfare
IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare - www.ifaw.org) announced today that for the first time ever DNA testing is being used on elephant ivory to help fight the illegal ivory trade. High-tech crime-fighting techniques, such as DNA testing, are increasingly used to investigate wildlife crime, a sophisticated, global black market that is estimated at billions of dollars (U.S.) annually. Wildlife crime - the illegal buying and selling of endangered animals and animal products - is a growing problem that is driving animals like elephants, tigers and great apes toward extinction.

Oil Prices: A Warning Of Energy Storms On The Horizon
September 28, 2004 10:09 AM - American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy
With oil prices spiking to almost a record $50 per barrel yesterday, the public has received another reminder of energy challenges confronting the United States. Pump prices for gasoline are again on the rise, heating oil prices are at record levels, and natural gas and electricity prices are poised to increase again. These price increases and the higher energy bills that result will put further pressure on the economy, imperiling the recovery. But individually at least, consumers have the power to protect their budgets from escalating prices by embracing energy-efficient measures and taking cost-cutting actions.

Liberal Leader David Swann promises seniors $155 million to provide long-term care, homecare, tax relief and a fitness credit.
Tory Leader Jim Prentice slammed Wildrose's balanced budget plan for being full of "generalities" as the election campaign began its fourth day Friday, while the Wildrose focused on seniors' care, the Liberals promised more money for those in need and the NDP touted their energy plan. Earlier this week, Wildrose Leader Brian Jean said his party would balance the budget in […]
Having faced up to the fact that older long-term care facilities should be equipped with fire suppression sprinklers, the Alberta government needs to get on with the task — now. The Conservatives said in October they would spend $70 million installing sprinkler systems in seniors' lodges and long-term care facilities that lack the life-saving equipment. […]
Alberta New Democrats say the shortage of long-term care spaces has forced an increasing number of patients to languish in acute care hospital beds in recent years and caused undue stress on families. NDP Leader Rachel Notley said Tuesday figures from Alberta Health Services show the number of acute or sub-acute care patients who have […]
The province's health authority is on pace to stay within its $13.6 billion budget this year, despite soaring costs to provide hospital and emergency room care to Albertans. New financial figures for Alberta Health Services show that through the first nine months of its fiscal year the authority was managing to avoid a massive deficit […]
Officials with the province's health authority don't know exactly where they will find hundreds of community beds for ailing seniors by year's end or the dollars needed to operate them to fulfil a new government promise aimed at unclogging Alberta's major hospitals. In the wake of Health Minister Stephen Mandel's pledge this week that it […]
Province vows to install fire suppression sprinklers in all seniors lodges and long-term care facilities over the next three years.
Fewer than half of Alberta's medical authority staff reported getting their influenza shot last year, but Health Minister Fred Horne says he's not considering mandatory immunization for workers at hospitals, long-term-care centres and other workplaces on the front lines of the flu season battle. Alberta Health Services data shows 43.9 per cent of its staff, contractors and volunteers reported getting immunized last flu season. The year before, 43.7 per cent of workers and volunteers got the shot.
Like many other Albertans, Premier Jim Prentice is jolted by news that provincial health-care costs 20 per cent more than the national average.
Swan Evergreen Village is an opportunity for Albertans to invest in seniors housing, offering an affordable, comfortable place for seniors to live, say the people behind Swan Evergreen Village.
Candidates vying to become the next MLA for Calgary-Foothills called for a major increase to home care funding Wednesday night to solve Alberta's crisis in long-term care. With voters going to the polls on Oct. 27 in Calgary-Foothills — one of four byelections to be held that day — five of the seven contenders in the riding were on hand for a forum at the Edgemont Community Centre.
Jerry Orpe has not been outdoors in four months and remains confined to an orthopaedic unit at a Calgary hospital, but he doesn't need knee surgery or a hip replacement like his fellow patients — he has Alzheimer's. Orpe, a 77-year-old retired business owner and a one-time prospect for the Chicago Blackhawks, has been waiting for a long-term care bed, and there is no end in sight.
Health care, and the disaster looming within it, is already emerging as the key issue in the four byelections triggered by Premier Jim Prentice. One reason is the indomitable Dr. Paul Parks, a Medicine Hat emergency doctor who speaks for the Section of Emergency Medicine, a division of the Alberta Medical Association.
Alberta's auditor general has released a critical report on the highly-touted joint provincial-federal oilsands monitoring program and also criticized the province's failure to implement adequate care programs in long-term care facilities. The 263-page October report, released Tuesday, slams the monitoring of cumulative effects of oilsands activity, noting the initial report of monitoring activities was late, inaccurate and incomplete.
With emergency room physicians warning of a potential "catastrophic collapse" in Alberta's acute-care system, Premier Jim Prentice said the government is looking at potential action.
