Prof. Explores Legal Role Of Neuroscience
Hank Greely and Larry Kramer are quoted in this Stanford Daily story about a recent MacArthur Foundation grant that will fund groundbreaking research at the intersection of law and neuroscience. Greely, who directs the Center for Law and the Biosciences, has been a pioneer of "neurolaw" and a leading voice on ""neuroethics." The Daily reports:
Law School Prof. Hank Greely '74 is part of a nationwide group of researchers centered at UC-Santa Barbara that recently received a $10 million grant from the MacArthur Foundation to study the ways in which neuroscience can be applied to the justice system.
Greely's research could alter the way we think about criminal and civil justice.
"Advances in neuroscience and our understanding of how the brain functions have both immediate and long term implications for the legal system," Law School Dean Larry Kramer told The Daily in an email. "As advances in neuroscience teach us to understand this better, we cannot help but change the way law deals with a wide variety of problems."
"The more excited we get about what happens if it works," Greely warned, "the more we must remember that we don't know if it does work."
If the new technology does prove to be reliable — and Greely puts the odds of this happening at below 50 percent — it will raise a number of constitutional issues, as defendants and witnesses may be obligated to take lie detector tests.
"A judge could conceivably issue a warrant on someone's mind," Greely said.
Current constitutional protections were not written in anticipation of advances in neuroscience and would not offer much defense against the aggressive use of neuroscience in trials. Greely argued that the First Amendment does not currently guarantee freedom of thought, and that the Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination only applies to testimony. MRI tests may be put under the same non-testimonial category as breathalyser tests, he said.
If neurological advances occur in the near future, Greely warned that the Bill of Rights may not be expanded to address neuroscience.
"Our current Supreme Court is not highly likely to extend rights," he said.

This disclosure relates to air cleaners and to components for air cleaners. This disclosure particularly concerns air cleaners of a type useable for cleaning intake air for engines. Methods of assembly and use are also provided.
Air cleaners are needed for a variety of applications, for example to provide cleaning of engine intake air for internal combustion engines. A wide variety of types of air cleaner arrangements and filter materials are known.
One known filter material, is filter media configured in a z-arrangement. Z-filter media generally comprises a corrugated or fluted media sheet secured to a facing sheet. The media is arranged to form a set of longitudinal flutes or air flow channels on one side of the corrugated or fluted media, and another set of flow channels on an opposite side of the corrugated or fluted media. In operation, flutes of one set of flutes are designated as inlet flutes, in which individual inlet flutes are left open at an inlet end or side of the media, and are sealed, folded or otherwise closed at an outlet end or side of the media. Analogously, the flutes of a second set of flutes are generally designated as outlet flutes, are sealed, folded or otherwise closed at the inlet end or side of the filter, and are left open at the outlet end or side of the filter. In operation, air passes into one flow face of the air filter construction, by passage into the open inlet flutes at an upstream end of the element. The air cannot flow out of the closed ends of these inlet flutes, so it must pass through the filter media into the outlet flutes. The filtered air then passes outwardly from an exit end of the filter element, through the open ends of the outlet flutes.
A variety of z-filter constructions are known; including, for example, the ones described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,820,646; 5,792,247; 6,190,432; and, 6,350,291; PCT Publication WO 97/40918; U.S. provisional application 60/395,009 filed 10 Jul. 2002; and the PCT Application U.S. 03/02799 filed Jan. 31, 2003 and claiming priority from U.S. Provisional 60/395,009; the complete disclosures of all eight references above being incorporated herein by reference. These types of media (among others) can be used in arrangements of the types described herein.
Z-filter media has been characterized as useable in coiled configurations, see for example U.S. Pat. No. 6,350,291; or in stacks of sheets of z-filter media, see for example FIG. 26 of U.S. Pat. No. 5,820,646.
In the present disclosure, unique features of air filter cartridge arrangements are described and shown. In addition, unique air cleaner arrangement or features, for receiving and mounting the filter cartridge arrangements are provided.
With the various features shown and described, or selected combinations of them, unique and convenient filter cartridges and air cleaner assemblies can be made.
The disclosure also concerns methods of installing air filter cartridges, and methods of removing them. In addition, from the descriptions provided, methods of assembling preferred filter cartridges and preferred air cleaner assemblies will be apparent.
The current disclosure concerns certain preferred arrangements for utilization of z-filter media constructions. Related, by structure, arrangements are described in the U.S. utility application entitled "Air Cleaner Arrangements, Serviceable Filter Elements; and, Methods" filed Feb. 10, 2004 by the inventors Randall Allen Engelland, Thomas Richard Olson, Gary Ray Gillingham, Jim C. Rothman, and Richard Lawrence Suydam, under Express Mail #EL 976593878 US. The complete disclosure of the Feb. 10, 2004 Express Mail #EL 976593878 US filing is incorporated herein by reference. Also, the current disclosure is related, by structure, to the following two U.S. Provisional applications: U.S. 60/446,804 filed Feb. 11, 2003; and 60/457,255, filed Mar. 25, 2003. The complete disclosure of these two provisional applications are incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure concerns certain air cleaners which use filter elements having a straight through flow design. By the term "straight through flow design," it is meant that air enters a serviceable filter cartridge within the air cleaner, along one (inlet) face, and filtered air exits the filter cartridge from an opposite, second (outlet) face. That is, the inlet and outlet flow paths for the serviceable filter cartridge are generally in the same direction.
As indicated, air cleaners of the type concern that the present disclosure, include serviceable filter elements or cartridges. The term "serviceable filter element or cartridge", and variants thereof, in this context, is meant to refer to a filter element or cartridge that can be removed from the remainder of the air cleaner and be replaced therein. Typically the filter cartridge of an air cleaner for intake air of combustion engines needs to be serviceable, since periodically the filter cartridge will become occluded, and must be removed and be replaced.
Air cleaners and serviceable filter cartridges of the general type characterized herein, can be used in a variety of arrangements. Typical applications include as air cleaners for internal combustion engines. The air cleaner assemblies and cartridges can be sized and configured for a wide variety of engine applications. Herein, a particular application, involving a large diesel engine having a turbocharger upstream of the air cleaner assembly, is described as an example. However, the principles disclosed herein can be applied in a wide variety of alternate applications, including for example, in air cleaners in systems that do not have a turbocharger upstream of the air cleaner.
The reference numeral 1,
Referring to
The principles disclosed herein can be applied in a variety of shapes and sizes of housings. The particular housing 10 shown, is meant to be an example only. However, the generally rectangular (in cross-section perpendicular to air flow) configuration depicted is preferred, and the principles disclosed are particularly well adapted for application in a housing of such a preferred configuration. Of course, the preferred air cleaner and filter cartridge configurations shown are, in more general terms, non-circular (in cross-section) configurations.
The particular housing 10 (
The filter cartridge 30 includes filter media 31. The filter media 31 depicted, is of the z-filter type, comprising corrugated or fluted media secured to a non-fluted facing sheet. The facing sheet can be corrugated or non-corrugated. Such media can be provided in a variety of configurations including: as coiled continuous sheet configurations as shown schematically in
It is anticipated that in a typical use such as
Referring to
The sidewall or sheath construction 40 can be provided in a variety of manners and by a variety of constructions. For example, it can comprise a single piece molded plastic or cast metal construction, a multi-piece clamshell construction of plastic or metal components, or a sheet or sheath of material such as aluminum wrapped around the media 31.
The sidewall or sheath construction 40 can be permanently secured to the media 31, if desired. This is preferred for the application shown. Alternatively the media 31 can be removably positioned within the sheath construction 40. The term "permanently secured" in this context, is meant to refer to a cartridge 30 in which the sidewall or sheath construction 40 and the media pack 31 are generally secured to one another and are not separated during a servicing operation. Typically securement would be with an adhesive or seal material, as appropriate. If the media pack 31 is removably positioned within the sidewall and sheath construction 40, it is expected that during a servicing operation, the sidewall or sheath construction 40 would be retained and be reused, but the media pack 31 would be replaced.
Referring to
A variety of specific configurations and orientations for the seal member can be used. An example would be mounting the seal member on a portion of the impermeable sheath construction 40 itself, for example on a flange integral with a remainder of the sheath construction 40. Another example would be mounting the seal member 45 a on a frame piece 51, as shown, which is itself adhered to, welded to or otherwise secured to, a remainder of the impermeable sheath construction 40. A third example would be mounting the seal member directly on the media 31; and a fourth would be mounting the seal member on a frame which is attached directly to the media 31 and not to the sheath 40.
Referring to
The seal member 45 a can be permanently attached to the framework 51 or it can be removably secured thereto. An example of permanent attachment, would be a molding of the seal member, for example from a foamed polyurethane material, directly onto the framework 46 for the seal arrangement 45. Another type of permanent attachment, would be attachment with an adhesive.
If a molding operation is used to secure the seal member 45 a to the framework 51, and an issue is perceived with respect to adherence of the molded seal material to the material of the framework piece 51, an arrangement can be made to provide for mechanical interlock. For example, apertures can be placed in a portion of the framework 51, allowing the moldable polymer to flow therethrough and provide for mechanical interlock after care or set, or various flange arrangements or other structures can be used to facilitate mechanical interlock.
An example of non-permanent attachment, would be a removable o-ring or similar structure positioned within groove 46.

Referring to
For the particular arrangement depicted, the projections 68, 69 (68 a, 69 a) are pins generally circular in cross-section, although alternate configurations can be used. It is noted that pin 68 is located closer to outlet face 33 than is pin 69 (similarly pin 68 a is closer to outlet face 33 than is pin 69 a). Advantage from this will be understood from descriptions below.
Herein projections 68, 69 will sometimes be referred to as having different axial spacing from end 33 or seal arrangement 45. The term "axial spacing" in this context is meant to refer to an axial distance from the face 33 or seal arrangement 45. The indication of "difference," is simply meant to indicate the two projections, 68, 69, have a different amount of spacing from face 33 or seal arrangement 46. A similar mirror image arrangement would be case for projections 68 a, 69 a.
In addition, projections 68, 69 are sometimes referenced herein as having different "vertical" spacing. Here reference is meant to the orientation of
The particular number of projections from each side, is not critical. Utilization of two projections from side 70 and side 71 is convenient, although alternatives are possible. Indeed in some arrangements a single projection from each side may be used. However, the preferred arrangement 30 includes two spaced pins, as shown.
Preferably the vertical spacing between the pins 68 and 69 (or 68 a and 69 a) on one side, is at least 20% of the length of that associated side of the cartridge, for example pins 68 and 69 are preferably spaced apart vertically by a distance corresponding to at least 20% of the length of side 70. Most preferably the spacing is at least 30% of the length of the associated side.
Referring to
Referring to
In this context, the term "front" in reference to "front edge 91" or in an analogous context, is meant to refer to an edge which faces projections 68, 69 (or 68 a, 69 a) of cartridge 30, during use. The term "rear edge" is meant to refer to an oppositely directed edge.
Rear edge 92 is preferably straight (linear) and is preferably directed perpendicularly to a cross section (across air flow direction) of housing 10. Front edge 91, positioned oppositely of edge 92, is preferably contoured and not straight (linear), in this instance having edge sections 91 a, 91 b and 91 c. For the arrangement shown, sections 91 a and 91 c are straight (linear) and generally define lines parallel to one another and substantially parallel to edge 92, whereas section 91 b is a transition section extending between sections 91 c and 91 a; section 91 b having curved ends to join sections 91 a, 91 c, and a straight center non-parallel to edge 92. Section 91 b can be viewed as a ramp section. Edge section 91 c is spaced further from edge 92 than is edge section 91 a. In some instances, sections 91 a and 91 c can be angled slightly forwardly, toward end 16, in extension upwardly toward base 89, to cause some cam effect.
Blade 86 is similarly constructed and is positioned on cover 11 as a mirror image to blade 85. Thus edge 86 includes base 96. Blade 97 has opposite edges 98 and 99 and tip 100, with edge 98 being preferably straight and perpendicular to air flow, and with edge 99 being opposite edge 98 and generally having a contoured shape, in this instance with three sections 99 a, 99 b and 99 c corresponding generally to sections 91 a, 91 b, and 91 c of blade 90, respectively. The blades 85, 86 are generally spaced apart from one another a distance such that a filter cartridge 30,
Herein, contoured edges 91, 99 of the blade 90, 97 will sometimes be referred to as the filter cartridge engagement edges. The filter cartridge engagement edges 91, 99 will sometimes be characterized as having a shape which allows for a biasing action, to move the cartridge 30 toward a seal position, as the cover 11 is put in position. The preferred shape shown tends to increase the biasing, as the cover 11 is positioned. This shape, sometimes referenced as a contoured shape, generally refers to a non-linear overall shape which will bias, axially, the cartridge 30 as the blade is slid along a portion of the cartridge 30. Preferably the contoured edges 91, 99 include upper sections (91 c, 99 c) which are positioned axially toward the outlet end 33, and seal arrangement 45, at least 0.25 cm further than other, lower, sections (91 a, 99 a). Herein, the term "upper" in this context referring to the orientation of
Thus, preferably the blades 90, 97 have front edges 91, 99 shaped for preferred biasing engagement with the filter cartridge 30.
Preferably opposite edges of the blades, in this instance 92, 98, which are directed toward the inlet end of the air cleaner 10, are straight and non-contoured. However alternate configurations for these edges can be used.
Of course a reverse orientation could be used, if it was decided that the seal of the filter cartridge should be against the upstream end, instead of the downstream end, of the housing.
It is noted that is some embodiments it may be desirable to put a second seal on the cartridge 40 at an opposite end from the seal arrangement 45, analogously to what was done in some of the arrangements of U.S. Provisionals 60/446,804 and 60/457,255 referenced above.
Operation of the biasing and lock mechanism 65 can be understood by reference to
After the cartridge 30 is positioned in place, the access cover 11 would be applied to the remainder of the housing 10, with blade projection 85, 86, extending downwardly into an interior of the housing 10. The contoured edges of the blades 90, 97, respectively, would be directed toward the projection arrangement 67. As the contoured edge 99 is passed (slid) along first the pin 68 a and then along the pin 69 a (and the corresponding pins 68, 67 on the opposite side of the cartridge 30 are encountered by edge 91), the cartridge 30 will be biased axially in the general direction of arrow 61, and into sealing engagement against a portion of the housing 10. The opposite straight edges 98, 92,
With respect to this, attention is directed to
The cartridge 30 can be provided with a handle, not shown, thereon, for convenient handling if desired. It is anticipated that typically the cartridge 30 will be positioned within the housing interior 27 before the access panel 11 is attached. However, the access panel 11 and cartridge 10 can be positioned simultaneously, if desired.
It is noted that the projections 68 and 69 can be provided and secured in a variety of matters, including by adhesive attachment, welding or by mechanical connection or other means as appropriate for the particular materials selected. Also, they can be molded or be cast integrally with, and as a portion of, the sheath 40. When separately made, the projections 68, 69 can be constructed from a moldable material such as a hard plastic, or they can be manufactured from metal.
The particular configurations of the projections 68, 69 shown in
The housing outlet end 26,
A variety of different seal types can be utilized for the engagement between the seal member 46 on a cartridge 30, and the seal surface at end 26 of the housing 10. The particular arrangement shown for
Alternates, discussed below in connection with
The axial seal may be made from a compressible foam material, for example Durometer Shore A 12-30, that will reduce in thickness when compressed axially. It may alternatively be made from a harder rubber-like material, such as a solid rubber o-ring. Typically it would be preferred that the seal member be compressible and that it compress at least 0.3 mm in thickness, and typically more, when used. This will allow for a convenient sealing.
Referring to
Attention is now directed to
Media shown in
Those ends of the flutes which are closed, are shown in
A variety of alternate z-filter media configurations to that shown in
The media may comprise a variety of materials. The particular media choice would depend upon the particular application of use involved. Typically non-woven fibrous constructions, comprising cellulose fibers, synthetic fibers or mixtures of the two, would be used. In some instances a surface application, such as a fine fiber application, can be used for preferred efficiency.
Alternately to the axial seal approach described above in connection with
The particular radial seal depicted in
Radial seal arrangements are described in detail, for example, in the two provisional applications 60/446,804 and 60/457,255, identified above and incorporated herein by reference. The techniques for radial sealing described therein, can be used for the arrangements described herein.
From the above detailed descriptions, a general understanding of certain preferred principles presented herein is understood. It is noted that the principles can be used together, to form a preferred air cleaner. However selected ones of the principles can be used in various alternate arrangements, if desired.
Among the principles disclosed, is a biasing and lock arrangement which utilizes two depending blades, at opposite sides of a filter cartridge, with an edge of each blade being contoured, instead of simply straight; preferably in the shape shown. The contouring can be used to provide an advantageous biasing to a cartridge member, during positioning of the blades. Preferably a rear end of the blades is straight, and is positioned to engage projections permanently mounted in the housing, for convenience.
A preferred arrangement of contouring is shown, which utilizes two straight sections separated by a third section. The two straight sections are preferably axially spaced, with respect to one another, within the air cleaner. Also, the two straight sections are preferably such as to define lines parallel to one another.
A preferred filter cartridge arrangement is also described. The filter cartridge arrangement generally includes a z-filter media pack surrounded by a sidewall construction. Preferably the sidewall construction has a generally rectangular or square shape, with rounded corners, although alternatives are possible.
Projection arrangements are provided on opposite sides of the sidewall. The projection arrangements preferably comprise posts. Most preferably on each side, at least two posts are spaced axially and vertically from one another, for engagement with sections of biasing and lock blades. This type of positioning can be used to not only help bias the cartridge into position for sealing and to retain it there, but also to ensure that the cartridge is properly positioned within the housing but not improperly installed.
A variety of seal arrangements for the cartridge to the housing are possible. One approach described is using an axial seal contained on the cartridge pressed against a portion of a housing sidewall, axially, in use. Alternatively radial seal approaches can be used.
In general methods of assembly and use are described. Methods of use would involve the steps of inserting the cartridges described, and then applying the biasing lock blade during closure of the air cleaner. Methods of assembly would generally involve assembling the various components, for example in the specific configurations described.

"Suddenly eight reindeer descend from above, each deer flying with the grace of a dove to the snowy lane in front of the house, making less sound than one wary mouse."
"At the night time a mystery was seen. At two heads above us an animal went by with out a sound aside from a faint rustle of hair. As it was dark, we did not follow the strange animal. As light arrived though we headed out to seek this animal. At 40 paces from our sight a series of tracks were found stretching further beyond and out of sight, but they stopped at out feet. No storm was around and no new snow had fallen, but the tracks stopped and they did not go further nor did they go back. What the creature was we do not know, only double sliver moon tracks were left of its passing." -- Translated by scholar Ebnar Kwentle from the Norwegian Text
"I was traveling with three men for much of four years. We traveled far and wide exploring this new land. One summer day we landed on a curious island area. Having grown weary of fish and other water life to eat, we set out to look for some four-legged food. Shortly after setting out we came upon a small group of antlered animals, these we inferred were what some of the local people we had met were called citivolus. This smallish animal stood about 3 feet off the ground and had a splendid set of antlers on its head. The group of animals numbered but 10 or 12, so we swiftly took down two of these animals. Upon the taking of two animals the remaining group of citivolus took off running. When to the amazement of us all the animals were no longer running, but gliding through the air at a height just above our heads. What manner of flight they could do and how they could do it we could not amass. For fear we quickly took off with our meal and headed back to the shore. What gracious animals these were not to follow or harass us more. In short time we had skinned our prizes and consumed our fill of citivolus."
"After finding this object, item number 7455a of the dig, I studied it for some time as how such a ship could have reached the island through the scattered ice sheets was remarkable. A local Katannilik of the village Site C noticed this small carving and made a rather remarkable statement. He mentioned that many years ago a neighboring people had a fear of a flying animal which resembled the modern caribou of the area. They called it Kitivuwus, and left the animal alone even during their worst famines. The Katannilik noted that from recollection there was a story of a white race appearing long ago and taking away many Kitivuwus, as they liked the taste of the animal. The local people of the island (Mallikjuaq of Bathurst Island actually) declared a form of war on these men, as although the feared the Kitivuwus they also cherished it as it kept another creature from harming them, some sort of large hairy bear-man type creature. During this quasi-war the white men were chased off, though they took many of the Kitivuwus with them. Behind these white men left an encampment with various shiny trinkets and stones. The camp was some place on the eastern coast Bathurst Island, a future grant is being sought now to search for this camp and the history behind the mystery ship."
"William B. Gilley, a publisher in New York City, recently published a story with a character named Old Sancteclaus. Now Sancte Claus has been around for generations, but in America his arrival is more recent with Washington Irving dealing with him in his Knickerboker's History of New York written under the false-name of Diedrich Knickerbocker." True enough Irving's Sancte Claus was St. Nicholas who flies over the roof tops one day a year. No reindeer drew his sleigh, but William Gilley's publication assigns a reindeer to the task of drawing a sleigh.
"Dear Sir, the idea of Santeclaus was not mine nor was the idea of a reindeer. The author of the tale but submitted the piece, with little added information. However, it should be noted that he did mention the reindeer in a subsequent correspondence. He stated that far in the north near the Arctic lands a series of animals exist, these hooven and antlered animals resemble the reindeer and are feared and honored by those around, as you see he claims to have heard they could fly from his mother. His mother being an Indian of the area."
"In 1822 I was awakened one night from my sleep at Chelsea House [note: Chelsea House was the homestead of the Moore family in Manhattan, New York] by an odd sound. Opening the windows I spied a most peculiar sight indeed, a smallish deer in the lawn. The shutters banged on the outside of the house, and I can only imagine this startled that impish creature as it took off at a good pace. Then to my amazement the animal rose into the air with a giant leap, as if pulled by a string like the puppeteer the year last we had for Margaret [note: Margaret was the oldest of the Moore's six children, being 7 years-old in 1822]. The animal arose no more than tree height, but stayed at the level until out of my sight. Never shall I forget the sight of that animal, and with the publication of Gilley's Santeclaus the year prior the idea of a reindeer and St. Nick made sense to put in writing for the children, and for my own sake. Never have I spoke of this instance to another, for ridicule must surely come to a man seeing a flying deer."
"John, Rollo was this animals name. The man said he came from the north and was found on an ice sheet. What was so special about this animal I had asked the man. He said it was a secret, but that for a bit of change I could see the secret. I paid the man the fee and went with him into his exhibit. The room was empty, not an animal in the room. I immediately asked for my money back as there was nothing to see. As I turned to get a response, the man had left but a flicker appeared on the far wall. A motion picture played, in was entitled ROLLO and showed a barren ice sheet with eight deer on it. When out of the corner, with no noticeably camera stop a ninth animal fell from the sky. Smaller than the rest, this ninth creature was pushed to the edge of the ice sheet by the others. Then the film stopped."
"After centuries of living in snow-covered lands, the North Pole Peary has developed a hoof every bit as big as that of a St. George's herd caribou. This acts as a kind of snowshoe when he's on the ground, and in the air it acts as a small, solid wing.... Let me start by saying that reindeer are the only antlered animal on earth to have a tinted forehead at the base of the antler - it's a protruding, bony forehead... on the Peary it seems like a massive shelf sticking up from his head. For him, when in flight, it's like a spinnaker on a sailboat - it's an extra sail, banking the wind up and over... Another thing about the antlers - reindeer are one of only three kinds of deer in the world to develop the palmated or broad-ended type of horn. This too creates wind resistance and thus loft."

Pope Benedict XVI gives his final audience to tens of thousands gathered at the Vatican. Vatican Radio reported that up to 200,000 are expected, with 50,000 having pre-registered. A normal audience in February is much less—last year at this time, the audience numbered 7,500 and the year before, 4,500.
The Pope's abdication—the first papal abdication since the Middle Ages—will take effect Thursday.
A greeting read to the Pope from English-speaking Catholics expressed, "sentiments of affection and esteem. We assure you of our gratitude."
The Pope said in an English, "I was deeply grateful for the understanding, support, and prayers not only of those in Rome." He said he had received much support from Catholics around the world. He asked the people to pray for him and for the next Pope.
The Pope will bless religious articles and the Pope's blessings will go to children and the sick, announced a clergyman.
"I commend all of you with great affection to His loving care."
A greeting from Catholics in the Pope's native Germany expressed "tiefe Dankbarheit," (deep gratitude) for his eight years of service.

Check out this article when you get a chance. It's about how the Stack and Tilt swing pattern is actually great for your back.
Not to rain on the S&T "scientific proof" parade, but as far as I see, "Dr. Troy Van Biezen" is a chiropractor, not an M.D. You'll also note that even the S&T advocates apparently were all careful to throw in the "if done correctly" qualifier.
My problem with S&T is that from what I see, it works against your human anatomy. Fighting your anatomy and gravity are losing battles. Eventually your anatomy and gravity are going to win.
It also appears many of the pros who were trying it, have since abandoned it, though I may not be up to date about that.
But, if it works for you, more power to you.
Good catch with Dr. Van Biezen being a chiropractor. I don't know much about that subject, but from what I've heard, it has a lot of negativity surrounding it.
Ignoring that though, there is nothing involved with S&T that hurts your back.
Can you name someone specific that you know that hurt their back using it -- someone who has worked with an authorized S&T instructor? Because you are being very vague with your criticisms.
Aaron Baddeley has left. Mike Weir left but recently returned.
JJ Henry won the Reno-Tahoe open this year, which is the 14th win for a stack and tilter on Tour in the past seven seasons.
So yea, you'd be wrong about pretty much everything you've said concerning Stack and Tilt itself. In fact, a great deal of what they teach has actually trickled down quietly into the world of golf instruction as a whole -- yet has often not been footnoted or cited. The impact it has made on how golf is taught today can not be understated.
But of course, people who do no research would miss that.
There are still "racist" beliefs towards Stack and Tilt due to hand-me-down, incorrect information that's been passed around by people who have no clue what they are talking about. It's unfortunate.

As a kid my family traveled a lot. Every summer we would take a long vacation somewhere. We sometimes went to the Wisconsin Dells, sometimes we went to South Dakota and there were the occasional trips to Florida.
One of my fondest memories was the time we drove to Florida, because I saw so many amazing things that I had never seen before. We drove through the Smokey Mountains and stopped at many different national parks along the way.
When we were in Florida we took an airboat ride through the Everglades and it was amazing and one of the coolest things that I have ever done.
Last week Mill Creek Entertainment sent me a review copy of their "National Parks: Explore the Nation" DVD set. The six disc set contains over fourteen hours of breathtaking and stunning video of the most visited National Parks in the United States. The documentaries were filmed exclusively for Mill Creek Entertainment by Centre Communications.
Each DVD focuses on a specific National Park and they all contain interviews with Park Rangers, authors, geologists and historians. The video is set to music along with a very interesting and informative narration. I thought that all of the interviews were really well done and felt that the people who were chosen to do the interviews did an excellent job explaining the history, geology, wildlife, eco systems and all of the special features of the National Parks.
The visuals and scenery in each DVD is stunning and spectacular. The beauty of each National Park is captured magnificently. You get a bird's eye view of all the mountain ranges, canyons and swamps along with some amazing views of the geysers in Yellowstone National Park.
Another thing that I really liked about the videos was that you really get to see the landscapes and natural formations from a different perspective. There are many spectacular Aerial shots though the Grand Canyon and Badlands that most tourists don't get to see.
One thing that I really enjoyed was the cave tours. A few of the National Parks have caves that tourists can go down inside and it was amazing seeing some of them. For example in the "Black Hills and The Badlands: Gateway to the West," you get to go down inside the "Jewel Cave" and you can see all the beautiful formations that have been created naturally underground. I really thought that this was very fascinating.
The DVD's that are included in the set are:
I really enjoyed Mill Creek Entertainment's "National Parks: Explore the Nation" a lot. I learned a lot about each National Park and thought that all of video and interviews were spectacular. I think people who like to travel or want to see some of the amazing features of the most popular National Parks in the United States will really enjoy this set.
Like I said earlier, I really enjoyed this set a lot and it brought back a lot of great family memories of our many road trips across the United States.

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup
Image added by JoanielspeakAdd your own photo
Category: Main Course
Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup - TastyPlanner.com
Chef: Joanielspeak
Grilled cheese and tomato soup was a staple in my household growing up and still is! Sometimes I add thinly sliced tomato and basil leaves to my sandwich before grilling for added tastiness.
For extra creamy soup replace the water with milk or top the bowl of soup with some shredded cheddar cheese or sour cream.
4 Slices of bread
2 tbsp butter
2 slices of american cheese
1 can condensed tomato soup
1 can of water
Place cheese between 2 slices of bread. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet or grill and when melted add the sandwich. Gently press down with a spatula once or twice during the grilling. When one side is golden, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, turn the sandwich over, and brown.
Meanwhile, heat soup and water in a saucepan until desired warm and steamy.

At the request of the U.S. State Department, the Department of Defense continues to provide security assistance for embassy personnel inside Iraq.
Over the weekend, a number of teams totaling approximately 170 U.S.
personnel began arriving in Baghdad from within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.
We have also moved approximately 100 personnel into the region to provide airfield management, security, and logistics support, if required.
All of these forces are trained to integrate with existing U.S. embassy security teams or operate as a stand alone force as directed.
The safety of personnel serving in diplomatic missions abroad is among our highest priorities. The presence of these additional forces will help enable the State Department to continue their critical diplomatic mission and work with Iraqis on challenges they are facing.

It's All Relative
Neither Marlboro Man nor I has any desire ever to build a new house. Gutting and re-doing The Lodge a few years ago completely satisfied, probably for a lifetime, any urge either of us might have had to take on a huge home improvement project. Plus, we love where we live, which is the house in which Marlboro Man grew up. It's older, of course, and will probably always need a little attention here and there. The roof is next. After that, I'll likely spend some time chipping all the dried noodles off our kitchen ceiling and touch up the paint a bit. I should also eventually replace the kitchen cabinet door that fell off in 2005. But I'm used to it being gone, and I'd have to get used to having it on again, and who has that amount of time in a day?
My point is, while there are things Marlboro Man and I would love to do in the future, building a new house for ourselves just isn't one of them.
Now, building a new barn? That would be exciting.
I can't believe I just said that.
Anyway, the reason I'm telling you this is that when I went feeding with Marlboro Man the other day, he actually took me to a spot I'd never, in all the years I've lived on the ranch, been before.
This was exciting in itself, but then I made Marlboro Man stop the feed truck so I could get out and stare.
I was in awe. There, right before my eyes, was my new favorite spot on earth. Although I'd seen these same pastures from a different perspectives, this view was one I'd never, ever seen before on all the feed routes I'd gone on with Marlboro Man. It's a view that's pristine, and pure, and unadulterated. Hardly any sign of telephone poles…no buildings…no roads. No indication of what decade—or even what century—it is.
And it's 3/4 of a mile from our house, albeit through some pretty rocky terrain.
"Oh my gosh, honey," I exclaimed. "This is IT! This is where we can build our dream house!"
"What dream house would that be?" Marlboro Man asked. "The one we said we'd never in a million years want to build?"
I laughed. I suddenly remembered. The plumbing. The septic tank. The flooring. The switchplate covers I had to use precious brain cells to pick out. Where to put the electrical outlets. Where to put the heating/air conditioning units. I'd so much rather plant potatoes.
I shuddered violently. Then I came to my senses.
"Ugh, you're right," I said. "Never mind."
Marlboro Man laughed.
"So instead, we can just move our house to this spot!" I continued. "People move houses all the time, and we really need to get away from all the hustle-bustle of where we live now."
"And what hustle-bustle is that?" my spouse asked.
"Oh, you know—just the whole rat race of where we live," I lamented.
"Uh, huh," Marlboro Man remarked. "You do realize the TV crew just left, right? I think you might just be feeling a little tired."
"No, I'm talking about our everyday lives—there's just too much stuff going on over there," I said, describing a location less than a mile from where we stood.
"There's way too much traffic…" (Translation: Josh drives through in his feed truck.)
"Way too many drop-ins…" (Translation: The Orkin man stops by every two weeks.)
"Way too many people…" (Translation: We have four kids.)
"Basically, I've just got to get away from all the craziness," I summarized. "We need to bring up the children in a quieter, more peaceful place.
"Okie doke," Marlboro Man said. "I'll go get the backhoe and you can help me run the lines for the septic tank."
"Never mind," I said. "I like where we live now."
Then we went home and ate some eggs.

These photos Ree remind me of paprika …deep rich color…
Thank you for sharing a precious moment between you and Marlboro Man….it makes me think…of…"Good night John Boy, good night Mary Ellen,…good night Papa…" Heartwarming!
Dianne at My Southern Heart On Monday, February 6 at 12:58 pm
I loved the photos of your new favorite spot on earth…beautiful colors. It's good to step by and take a new look sometimes. I'd say you have a very nice life, Ree, right where you are…

ha : )
Mary Connealy On Monday, February 6 at 1:01 pm
You do realize all the crazy comes with you, right?
Unless you were planning to leave the kids in their own house.
Mary C On Monday, February 6 at 1:03 pm
Beautiful location.
Mary Casstevens On Monday, February 6 at 1:06 pm
6 years ago we did just what you were thinking. We picked out a spot on our land and built our dream house. What helped me was that I had just retired from an interior decorating company, moved to the country, and had 12 years experience under my belt. Made it easier. I love the pictures of your house and the lodge.
karen On Monday, February 6 at 1:06 pm
You need to build alittle , and I mean little log house with just enough room for you and the man. That way you have somewhere to go to look at each other and catch up!
Charissa On Monday, February 6 at 1:08 pm
The land looks gorgeous. That's where you two can drive for a quiet date all by your lonesome (when you're feeding cows, right?). My husband and I grocery shop on our dates…after a nice dinner somewhere. It's about all the excitement I can handle most weeks. I'm too much of a homebody.
Mickie On Monday, February 6 at 1:11 pm
How beautiful, it's breathtaking…my first thought was build a precious little cottage there, then it digressed to, bring out a beautiful bench for some wonderful meditation and to read! Now I'm of the opinion that a wonderful blanket to sit on would just be perfect, along with the book, and along with your camera…sigh…I love wide open spaces, it's all alive.
Gee On Monday, February 6 at 1:16 pm
I vote replace the cabinet door & be done with it!
But, seriously, what a beautiful spot! I'll come and help you pick out switch plates….
Decaf Debi On Monday, February 6 at 1:21 pm
It's so easy to see why MM and his brother both stayed with the family business. I can only dream of having land and a view like that to live on and pass down through the generations.
DJ On Monday, February 6 at 1:25 pm
Beautiful spot for a new home, but if your home is like mine the craziness will just follow you! Might as well stay where you are and take a nice vacation!
lomagirl On Monday, February 6 at 1:30 pm
Composting toilet, water tower, and a safari tent with comfortable furniture for getaways high on the hill.
Diane S. in San Diego On Monday, February 6 at 1:32 pm
Maybe you could build 4 or 5 cabins with a pond loaded with fish and keep it real simple. (That really is a gorgeous spot! It is hard to find a place like that anywhere on the planet.)
Or, leave it as it is and just go camping up there once in a while… keep your dream going.
NiCoCo On Monday, February 6 at 1:36 pm
Gorgeous pictures and I love the back and forth with you and your man, so cute! Can't you just put a fire pit right there and a little coffee maker and sit there in the morning next to the fire with a nice hot cup of joe…. This makes me think of the City Slickers movie when they start grinding the coffee and scare the whole herd of cattle and everything goes hay wire…is hay wire two words or one? haha
Tara On Monday, February 6 at 1:38 pm
That is such a beautiful spot! You can put a tent there!
Robin in the Sticks of Texas On Monday, February 6 at 1:38 pm
if you stuck a house there…..it would no longer be unadulterated. sorry…but it is true. i'm just sayin'. oh…never mind.
PenPen On Monday, February 6 at 1:44 pm
Awesome view—Yes a new house would look great, but I can totally udnerstand not spoiling the view for the future. But I would love to design a house from the bottom up. My Mom did, my Aunt has done 3 (her husband was a contractor). I'm just greatful to be able to remodel without my husband going off the deep end. I told him I like our house. He looked at me and yelled, then why are you changing it. I laughed and said I'm upating it in case we would sell it, people would want to buy it. I'm hopeless, I like to redesign and change things. Ree, was a new home or an update on your leaplist?
Danetta 'n Texas On Monday, February 6 at 1:47 pm
That is a beautiful site. Maybe you can just make it a point to picnic there and go there occasionally for a little solitude!
The Sweet Cupcaker On Monday, February 6 at 1:53 pm
that's a great story!! haha but I agree–the best views are those completely empty and alone places where you feel that no one has touched but you. It's amazing!
Susan On Monday, February 6 at 2:01 pm
Please know that you look great on TV – and the little one who declares that every single meal you fix "Is the BEST meal he's ever had!" – keep him, too. He's a treasure.
Texnana On Monday, February 6 at 2:05 pm
So, on the last photo, the one right before you went home to eat eggs, right in front of MM, what is that spot on the ground. A giant cow patty? An ancient campfire site? A flat rock? A landing spot for tiny alien spacecraft? Inquiring minds, etc.
Vickie D. On Monday, February 6 at 2:06 pm
How wonderful to find one of those spot where your thoughts and mind can rest on the senery. I have just purchased a nice size tract of land and I am working very hard to get out there as quick as possible. I will be setting on top of a hill where I can watch those glorious Oklahoma sunsets. I love you first cookbook and was actually recomending it for gifts in the book store this past Christmas….I am a landman and I researched your husbands family regarding oil and gas several years ago. I was so intrigue that I dug in the family history. I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the history lesson. They were brave, bold, entrepreneur frontiersmen…..Have a wonderfully blessed week.
Cory Snyder On Monday, February 6 at 2:08 pm
This post got me to thinking about your book and wondering what ever happened to the Yellow Brick Indian House you where first going to fix up for your just budding family?
Elizabeth P. On Monday, February 6 at 2:25 pm
What a beautiful, gorgeous spot! My husband and I are just getting ready to build a house out in the country and I am ready to get my hands dirty if it means the job will get done faster. The city is not for me OR my husband! The country is where I was raised and it is where I belong. Love, Love, Love scenes like these!! Thanks Ree!
kathleen On Monday, February 6 at 2:39 pm
The last photo in this post – of MM hanging his head a bit and the vast expanse of rolling plains stretching out behind him – is one of my new favorite photographs ever. It's absolutely stunning. In both its beauty and the silent emotion it conveys (at least to me). So beautifully seen and shot.
Cristin Wills On Monday, February 6 at 2:51 pm
I love that last photo of your husband. Frame it and put it on your nightstand. That would be a lovely thing to look at before sleeping and kissing the real deal a good night!
Katherine V On Monday, February 6 at 2:58 pm
LOL, for some reason the last picture of MM & all the land behind it makes me think of a romance novel with that picture in front of it. =) Love it!
Barbbigred On Monday, February 6 at 3:01 pm
How wonderful that you can live somewhere for all of these many years and run across a piece of incredible land … that you have never seen before. What a blessing is that! I feel renewed just having had the pleasure of reading this post!
Amy Swanson On Monday, February 6 at 3:03 pm
I like Two Barking Dogs idea of putting a TeePee or yurt out there for stealing away some quiet moments….AND it's still close to home. Such beautiful photos….I would love that view everyday….absolutely breathtaking!
Kristee Hardy On Monday, February 6 at 3:03 pm
My grandmother in law, who was my best friend until she passed… used to say you have to be in love with the idea of marriage to stay married. And It takes a couple who is at peace with thier lives to be able to stay in one place their entire marriage. My hubby wants to die in this old 1935 home of ours. We have not been able to do new things to it yet,… maybe when our boys are raised…bigger and better seem nice, but peace within one self is better. Useful things like a barn, or chicken house are great.
LoveFeast Table On Monday, February 6 at 3:22 pm
How about pitch a tent? A little home away from home! You could decorate it.
You could call it Glamping.
Chris Ann & Kristin
Rita Atkins On Monday, February 6 at 3:24 pm
Never underestimate the value of a good tent and some air mattresses as a home away from home.
dee On Monday, February 6 at 3:26 pm
Ree, buy a camper, fix it up cute and drag it out there for a little "love nest" whenever the two of you are feeling the need to get away from the hustle and bustle! (We have 4 kids also, so I hear you need for quiet!)
Katie Jo On Monday, February 6 at 3:27 pm
What a lovely view… you could builds a gazebo and have lunch out there regularly. Or maybe a small garden shed with windows just for yourself to get away and read a book in.
Teresa@SanTanValleyDailyPix On Monday, February 6 at 3:29 pm
All that's missing are the mountains in the distance…sorry, I'm partial to AZ because I live here. Gorgeous, light and color in these photographs–earth and sky–we are the in between!
I would totally build there!
SuZQ On Monday, February 6 at 3:50 pm
Love, love, LOVE the photos…MM looking so content taking it all in. Very peaceful…don't ruin it by bringing in the 21st century…
We live in Tulsa and whether we go north, south, east, or west on any of the highways out of town, there is always a communications tower…whether you are looking ahead, or in your rear view mirror.
Preserve your prairies and rolling hills, Ree. You can never get them back…
Nezzy (Cow Patty Surprise) On Monday, February 6 at 3:55 pm
Oh Ree, this Ozark Farm Chick thinks ya need a little getaway shack on that spot. Ya know one with just enough room for a jacuzzi tub. a roarin' fireplace and and little porch just big enough for two rockers to look out over the prairie. A Love Shack, so to speak! Heeehehehe!!! :o)
Ya'll have a wonderfully blessed and beautiful week straight from the silly hills and hollers of the beautiful Missouri Ponderosa!!!! :o)

How about a lovely little bench there so you can enjoy the view and contemplate and think and read and take pictures and then…..go home to the house you are perfectly happy in…Just a thought.
Cynthia B. On Monday, February 6 at 4:33 pm
I love the last photo! Beautiful!!!
dan's wife On Monday, February 6 at 4:42 pm
Happy ending!
But it was kinda scary there for a while.
go home and eat eggs, this feeling will pass.
Brittanie On Monday, February 6 at 4:45 pm
Hah! Cute story. That place is gorgeous. You should build a little "retreat" building, or a studio space. Like this (http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2010/06/23/garden/20100624-chic-slideshow.html), only in your own style.
If I had the land and money, I totally would.
Carol in So. Cali On Monday, February 6 at 4:45 pm
I loved your story. You married a good man. You can still pitch a tent there or even build a summer cabin like they have in Norway. Everyone likes having a little cabin to go visit on vacation. It doesn't have to have all the amenities – remember it is camping. It sounds like a lot of people have some great ideas. A traveling motor home would bring all the conveeniences with you. Your oldest daughter could even babysit the kids back at home.

We just moved our house from one end of the farm to the other end of the farm (the end with the view). I have been working on the project since last June. It was way more work and money than we anticipated (in this case my husband is the dreamer). I don't think I will ever say it was worth it. I want my old yard back, but wait, we had to cut down trees, uproot my herb garden, and destroy the lilan bushes.
Pam Cribbs On Monday, February 6 at 4:56 pm
Build! Beautiful setting!!!
tinaehb3 On Monday, February 6 at 5:01 pm
We built our dream house on what used to be my in-laws farm before he became sick with cancer. Now a horse farm owns the farm that used to be my inlaws and we get to sit back and enjoy the scene without all of the work.
JENNIFER D. On Monday, February 6 at 5:10 pm
Hey ! What a beautiful spot, Ree ! Isn't God good and what an amazing landscape artist he is ! I can see how that breathtaking view would tempt you to pick up and move……..but…
I have already had to say a few hail Mary's from already being guilty of the sin of envy after seeing where you live already ! And I am a Southern Baptist, we do not even do hail Mary's, ha ha…………well, except for Eli Manning into the end zones ! Sorry, but I just had to get that in after last nights Super Bowl win !! But, seriously, Ree, I have even told my husband that I would be thrilled just to live in your Lodge ! You are already living my dream, just that kitchen alone, well, that and an indoor bathroom would be all I would need to live happily ever after in the Lodge ! I have been married to the same man for over 30 years and we have yet to build or be able to buy a"new" house. We buy fixer uppers and add our blood ,sweat ,and tears and turn them into our HOME ! I often get envious of some of my family members who have built or bought new homes many times over the years but I know that is bad of me, hence the hail Mary's.So, Ree, you and MM just hook up a team of cows, I mean horses and take a picnic basket full of goodies and take that 3/4 mile ride ALONE together to that heavenly spot and enjoy it ! Just remember to take a cozy blanket for the back of the buckboard………..LOL ! Or, just follow the afore mentioned instructions using anything with four wheels , hooves optional ! God Bless……………..Jen
heather On Monday, February 6 at 5:24 pm
wow. those pictures are just indescribable. pure beauty. i'd love to spend a day out there, just laying around and reading while enjoying the clouds floating by!
Karen Jo Moseley On Monday, February 6 at 5:32 pm
How peaceful it is! I would build a big wrap-a-round porch, so I could move from spot to spot watching the sun rise and then watching it set! Who needs a SEPTIC TANK?? You are THE Pioneer Woman!! =)
Sharon in OK On Monday, February 6 at 5:35 pm
Ree, the pictures are absolutely beautiful. My husband and I were up in your neck of the woods over the weekend. We drove through the Tall Grass Prairie Preserve and got to see the bison up close and personal. Then we drove back out through Foraker and down to Hwy 60 and on to Bartlesville. I waved as I passed by your gate. We also really enjoyed seeing so many herds of horses on the ranches. Sunday we explored some of the WMA's up north of Bartlesville and let our German shorthair have some great running time. It was a fun weekend seeing landscapes in Oklahoma we hadn't experienced before.

Maybe this is the site of your future retirement home, so the next generation of Drummonds can continue the ranch with the Big House. But, maybe by then you'll want an end unit condo in the city with no maintenance and fewer Bassets. Lots of choices :-).
Sandy H. ;) On Monday, February 6 at 5:42 pm
Absolutely, positively beautiful !!! One can dream, can't one?
Nicole Glover On Monday, February 6 at 5:51 pm
Beautiful country! Maybe a home for just the 2 of you after the kids all grow up. Lingering over coffee with that view from your kitchen table…
Miz boo On Monday, February 6 at 5:53 pm
Well, if not a house…l
How about one of those authentic teepees?
Or a camp tent?
Or a teeny tumbleweed house?
Or a yurt?
nancypants On Monday, February 6 at 5:57 pm
I bet Barbie lays awake at night in her dream house building a new dream house. ;^P But I can relate. Not with having a field. Or needing a barn. Or having a t.v. crew infiltration. But sometimes just wanting to escape it all. But then… the minute you escape, you find yourself missing it. Barbie would miss her old dream house once she got Ken to build her a new one, I think. She would reminisce about the old shade of pink. She would long for that old pool… She would probably feel that way about plastic surgery too.
I couldn't tell you, even for a second, why Barbie became the theme of my comment. Something about the words "Dream House" and having very strong word associations that just won't die. Sort of like "Septic lines" makes you suddenly come to your senses.
kathy (yaya) On Monday, February 6 at 6:24 pm
I hate to remind you that someday all those kiddos will be grown up..perhaps one of them would like to live in the house they grew up in and you and MM could build your dream home on that spot and run and visit the other home now occupied by one of your kiddos…just sayin'
christy On Monday, February 6 at 6:46 pm
Ha! Tired might have been an understatement. At least a good man knows how to bring you back to your senses. LOL!
Susan Arden On Monday, February 6 at 6:51 pm
Hmmm..methinks the lady doth protest too much. And Marlboro Man appeared to be staking the place out. We'll stay posted for the announcement of the new house (or relocation of the old house). Very beautiful piece of property.

It's cowboy picturesque!

What a wonderful view! Whew! Land untouched since the beginning! What a thought. Ree! I am so enjoying your blog. Thanks for sharing your life and your family and your home with us! Lovin your Food Network Show too! Don't forget to take some time for yourself and come up for air!!!
Rose Petals Nursery On Monday, February 6 at 7:04 pm
The gardener loves this post! It so fits the lifestyle Mr. Blue Jeans and I share with one exception, our kids are grown. Its the hustle and bustle of ranch life, the nursery life, family life and LIFE! The gardener thinks that Mr. Blue Jeans are kindred spirits, they slow us down and calm us. Makes us better people don't you think?
Janette On Monday, February 6 at 7:13 pm
You should build yourselves a little "love shack". Just a little romantic cabin with only enough space for the two of you to get away from the hustle and bustle of your ranch. You can even fix dinner, leave the kids for the night and come back after breakfast. I suggest running water, but no electricity. Only candles.
Kate On Monday, February 6 at 7:17 pm
I know where you're coming from. We live in an older home and had the kitchen gutted and remodeled three years ago and it was the most stressful summer I ever lived through. Too many decisions and too much craziness going on. I won't even tell you about the drywall that was put in wrong, torn out and put in again. Yuck! We need to replace a couple of windows this spring and I'm already stressing about the mess and disruption that will cause.
Roxana Resendiz On Monday, February 6 at 7:37 pm
OH I wish I could be there, it looks so quiet, peaceful, warm and breath taking, nothing to bother you.
Barbie On Monday, February 6 at 7:37 pm
Great pictures, beautiful land. But that last picture truly is stunning. I think it says everything that can and needs to be said about the beauty of where you live, and by extension, that of our country. That's an "I'm proud to be an American" shot!
Lindsay (Young Married Mom) On Monday, February 6 at 8:06 pm
So beautiful. I love living in Brooklyn, but we just don't have views like that here!
Becky On Monday, February 6 at 8:29 pm
What a gorgeous place to run off to when life gets overwhelming!! What a lucky girl you are!
Gretchen SB On Monday, February 6 at 9:00 pm
Lordy, that's a beautiful view!! (Long, happy sigh.)
Bev Garrett On Monday, February 6 at 9:03 pm
There are places on this earth that take every ounce of breath out of you when you first
lay eyes them. The first thing I thought of when I saw these pictures was "pristine" and as much as it would be wonderful to have a dream home there….the "pristine" would go away. Possibly a wonderful gazebo or just a bench there to go visit when you have too many visitors, too many people coming and going and the Orkin man who just won't stay away. Keep that sweet secret spot just for you to enjoy and all those "too many's" will disappear.
Phyllis A On Monday, February 6 at 9:13 pm
Oh my. When I first saw one of your posts where MM had taken you feeding, I thought that was code language that he took you on a date to a restaurant. I've been living in town way too long.
Janet in Kansas City On Monday, February 6 at 9:25 pm
Can you adopt me? I'm all citied out.
Michelle On Monday, February 6 at 9:26 pm
I really like that last photo Ree. Looks like something you'd find in Western Horseman, I don't know, can't put my finger on what it is that makes that one stand out to me. Something to do with how MM is sort of turning towards you and looking down against that beautiful background.
Jayme On Monday, February 6 at 9:43 pm
What a wonderful view. Wish I could look at that every morning..you're very lucky!!
roan On Monday, February 6 at 10:24 pm
Ree,…a barn WOULD be exciting. But not at your "new favorite spot on earth."
I've never seen this spot until your pictures, but a window was opened and my mind can go there.
A barn built with heavy timbers and a special kitchen devoted to canning and cast iron cooking. Horses too, with an inside window so they can watch.
Kris On Monday, February 6 at 10:30 pm
I adore the flint hills. I could stare at them all day. Any time of year.
Merri Jo On Monday, February 6 at 10:30 pm
Truly breathtaking! Such a lovely place for you and MM to have a midweek rendezvous now and then…to get away from everyday life to just take in the beauty of creation and the presence of the one you love most dearly.
Missy On Monday, February 6 at 11:20 pm
Keep that spot in mind and when one of the kids is ready to build a house you can "convince" her that this is the place! Then you can sit on her porch swing, rock your grand baby and look at that gorgeous view.
Rita On Monday, February 6 at 11:32 pm
Build your dream and live your dream. The location for your home should have a feeling to it.You just feel it.Then you feel yourself living there. It's not something that you can explain.
I am a general contractor and a wife and mom so I know. You probably felt yourself just looking out your kitchen window at that glorious view and said "wow". Your heart probably skipped a few beats. Mine would.Now that is exactly where you want to build your home.
Building a home is not a reality show nightmare, It's a great and glorious adventure. It will not harm your marriage and your children will love it.Go with your heart.
E mail me if you'd like some more insight. I will be happy to share the upside of building your own home.
Rita Shaw Construction (and mainly Mom)
marti On Monday, February 6 at 11:32 pm
That's really such a gorgeous photo you took of it, there in the first frame, Ree.
But it isn't quite complete until MM steps in. What a wonderful, blessed life the two of you lead. (And when I say "lead," I mean work your tails off for!)
Stephanie C On Monday, February 6 at 11:43 pm
I am amazed that you've never been to that spot of your land before! What a beautiful place!
One tiny grammar correction: your first sentence should be "have", not "has". I know you'll appreciate that;)
Lynn J On Monday, February 6 at 11:51 pm
So peaceful and beautiful I would build a house there.
Joni On Tuesday, February 7 at 12:08 am
Awesome photo…

iMy husband and I decided to build, and wat a head ache it has turned out to be! we love the houses but if i were to be asked to build again it would be a definate No. Beautiful post and lovely pics…. OHHH and lovely Blog
Flatlander (Linda) On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:48 am
We almost built our "retirement" place (Northern Michigan) while we were still living in Pennsylvania. We love the land that we bought and spend time on it just sitting there, watching the trees blow, seeing the sunsets, campfires, etc. The builders we tried to work with were all prohibitive expensive and they kept nickel and diming us to the point that the house we THOUGHT we would build wasn't anything like what we were going to end up with for a LOT more $$. We finally bought another already built home nearby and still own our land (which we "visit"). I just had a "gut" feeling that building wasn't the right thing to do for us. I admire those that do it; they have more courage than I do. I can't even imagine the nightmare it would have been to build being a 9 hour drive (each way) from the house while construction was going on. Feel like I dodged a bullet with that decision.
Christine C On Tuesday, February 7 at 1:12 am
Oh man I miss the wide open spaces I grew up with in the country…..I need to get back there soon!
Barbara On Tuesday, February 7 at 4:57 am
You are truly blessed to be in the middle of all that gorgeous countryside. And to never have ventured out in that direction before so close to your living. Wow
I would have expected pie though, not eggs.
Tonya J On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:10 am
This is what I am talking about! Every time we travel back East after a few days, I tell my husband I want to go home(we live in KS) It's not that we are not having a good time. It is just I can't see. See where are going. There is always some tree in the way or mountain. I can't see where we are headed or tell what time it is. I have to be able to see the sun and look out a few miles ahead. People who have never lived in the Midwest probably do not understand this closterphobic feeling we suffer from when a tree gets in our way. Such a beautiful spot you have there.
Mary On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:13 am
You do know that 'crazy' will follow you…..Josh will still drive a feed truck past the house, the Orkin man will still need to drop in, and your kids will still be there. I vote for the new barn…. But hold that spot in mind for when your kids take over the ranch. You sure wouldn't want to move to town! Still can't believe that some people actually like to live in town…….
Chrissy On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:22 am
wow, that's absolutely beautiful! The absence of telephone poles or other signs of civilization is almost hard for this East-Coaster to understand though!
TheNavyWife On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:39 am
Hi Ree,
My husband and I have been looking at different places to finally set down roots and start our small farm. We haven't found our spot yet but I sure like yours! =)
When we do find our beloved spot, do you think Marlboro Man would be interested in helping to put in some septic lines? Just kidding!
Flatlander (Linda) On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:41 am
We bought 6-1/2 acres in Northern Michigan on which to build our dream home. Prices from the builders were too high and we wound up buying an already built house about 7 miles from our land. We bought the land because of the way it made us "feel" when we were on it. We spent years going up there, camping on it, clearing parts of it and sometimes just sitting in the middle of the trees and just being a PART of the land. We will never, ever, ever sell this land. We may never build on it either but that's okay. It's still there, still ours and we can still go and sit there and feel the same way … it's a little piece of "heaven" right here on earth!
Nichole On Tuesday, February 7 at 7:43 am
Soooo pretty! Forget moving the house, you need a cute little sitting spot.
Linda On Tuesday, February 7 at 8:40 am
Ree, you need to write another. That is beautiful story!
Sandra Dee On Tuesday, February 7 at 8:47 am
When you want to convince your kids to move home, let them build their own homes and tell them you have the perfect spot.
Also, I love these shots of MM. I see so much of him in your kids. The way they stand, the way they carry themselves… I love seeing those traits carry through the generations.
corrie On Tuesday, February 7 at 8:51 am
By far the saddest element of humans is that when they see a 'good view' they want to build Right There. Ruins the view too!
SallyK On Tuesday, February 7 at 9:17 am
How beautiful your night skies must be!
Carol On Tuesday, February 7 at 9:27 am
Why don't you just build a little "get away house" like Oprah did in one of her gardens, nice comfy furniture, a place to read (ha when do you have time to read) or watch TV with MM in seclusion.Just one room and a potty!!!

MADISON - Attorney General J. B. Van Hollen issued the following statement upon enactment of Senate Bill 154, relating school safety:
I applaud the Governor for signing SB 154 into law.
Information-sharing is a key public safety tool, but prior Wisconsin law unnecessarily restricted information-sharing when it came to safety in our state's schools. This new law removes existing barriers to sharing safety-related information, encourages schools to appropriately share information, and requires the criminal justice system share certain information with schools.
I believe this law will enhance school safety and improve the education and well-being of our kids and communities.
Van Hollen's testimony to the Legislature.
In September 2008, Van Hollen testified before the Special Committee on School Safety and offered versions of the proposals which are contained in the bill that relate to information sharing. Van Hollen's testimony to the Special Committee on School Safety proposing changes to state law relating to sharing information.
In 2007, Van Hollen participated in a nationwide task force of State Attorneys General formed to study and report on campus and school safety issues. Read: The Task Force's report.

Below is the poem entitled The Longing, Remembering the Sway of the Primal Guide, Translation of Carlos Bousono's poem which was written by poet
Wignesan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
T Wignesan
Carlos Bousono's poem : Recordando a pastora imperio
for Damaso Alonso
(Poem published in the collection : Metaphora del desafuero, 1988, and dedicated
to Damaso Alonso, who exerted on Carlos Bousono an avowed influence and
patronage, concludes my own present tribute to the Maître. I confess I had not
read Bousono's poems – I may have glanced at a couple of poems when I first
bought the Espasa-Calpe anthology some years ago – before I began translating
them on October 16, 2013.)
I have always thought that in the state of sudden immobility
of the immemorial dancer of flamenco the entire dance
is concentrated of a sudden in this posture
of an instant,
under the weight of centuries,
all of its foregoing agitation,
in such a way as in its absolute fixation is to be found
its passing and its minute ad mysterious simulation :
the flight of sea gulls over the sea, their avid and sudden swoop
onto the prey,
and she herself, the flamenco dancer herself, becomes in that instant,
like the form most refined and pure
of such an incomprehensible paradox : velocity and paralisation,
becoming more dense in the procès
between Aquiles and parsimony,
or the tortoise and despair…
No, there is no différence,
because to differentiate hère is to make a descent,
while here there is but an ascent.
And has the flamenco dancer understood suddenly
that to make a move
is an intolerable imperfection
for whoever aspires to the most arduous achievement,
to the supreme compromise with the fire in the beyond
and the surprise, sacred and full of rejoicing between
the fresh flames,
a compromise, then,
with the truth of the highest form of living,
and so the dancer of flamenco
remained for this reason without moving
in a difficult equilibrium
to see if that position, without touching it,
in not moving any of the pièces,
without turning a page, without causing the hinges to friction,
could by chance last, keep enduring there,
on the razor's edge,
maintain itself on the head of a pin's unlikely verticality,
balance itself on tip-toes, without breathing, each instant
succeeding the other,
on the verge of the abysm itself,
earth and boulders coming loose,
and one after another in succession, and in succession…
© T. Wignesan – Paris, 2013

Quote from site: "It started to get really interesting when Salusbury came up to me and asked me to do something to him. He outstretched one arm and asked me to pull his arm down with both my hands. Using all my strength, I try to push his arm down. I was not able to do so. Now though Salusbury may be a man in his 50's, he still looked strong. Now this is where it gets beyond interesting. He asked a class member to outstretch her arm. The class member was a petite blonde lady, perhaps about 5'1 and 105 pound. Once again, Salusbury asked me to pull her arm down. Using both arms, I pushed and pulled, but was unable to budge her. It was remarkable. She felt stiff as a stone "
There you have it, folks. Undeniable proof!

Hey Guys and Gals,
I actually live in Grand Rapids, MI...which is about 20 minutes away from Zeeland. Supposedly they have a class in Zeeland. I tried to find out if they were still holding classes there...but apparently no one has any record of it at the community center. *sigh* I SOOO wanted to become a celestial master too... *sigh*
Apparently, there is a Tulsarian Alert out and they have all moved to their Delta 9 location...(I don't know what they have against people from Tulsa.) :guitar:
