Marketing Professors Adjust Message, Kick-Start New Industry
Editor's note: "When Theory Meets Practice - Stories From the Workplace" features professionals who share tales of challenging events that tested them with the unexpected.
By Cathy Hartman and Edwin Stafford, Huntsman professors
One might think that a proposal to save water during a drought would be an easy sell. We discovered that it was not.
We knew that, according to theory, in the world of marketing if you aren't prepared to adjust your approach until your message connects with your audience's hearts and not just their heads, you will end up spending all of your time talking to yourself and alienating your audience. We learned that you need to understand your audience's values when framing effective marketing messages.
Ed Stafford and Cathy Hartman
It took a bit of Photoshop magic to get Cathy Hartman and Edwin Stafford to appear on top of a wind turbine.
It was in 2003 that we joined the Utah Wind Working Group, a volunteer committee that was supported by the Utah Energy Office with funds from the U.S. Department of Energy's Wind Powering America Program. We accepted the task of promoting community acceptance of wind power in Utah to win popular support for legislation that would offer tax incentives to entrepreneurs willing to invest in renewable energy.
In the summer of 2003, Utah was suffering from a severe drought. At the time, coal-powered electricity was relatively inexpensive and the prevailing choice among policy makers even though coal plants in the west consumed 650 million gallons of water every day – a fact that few Utahns realized. Wind turbines, by contrast, don't require any water to generate power, so we decided to build our messaging around that benefit with a slogan that said, "Wind Power Saves Water!"
Our hope was to drive people to our website to learn how wind power saved water as a viable substitute for traditional coal-fired power. The campaign, however, did not generate the web traffic we had expected. In fact, it appeared that no one cared about the water-energy connection. Our campaign did, however, spark one inaccurate news story that managed to offend a utility plant executive, someone we would have rather not alienated.
We learned two lessons: One, connecting wind power to something people didn't care about is not effective marketing. And two, marketers need to consider how messages unintentionally could offend specific audiences.
As we reevaluated our campaign, searching for an approach that would resonate with Utahns, we decided to emphasize how wind farms could generate new property tax revenues (paid by the wind entrepreneurs). We reasoned that since about 75% of property taxes in Utah went to fund local schools and supported Utah kids, we could tie wind power to what most Utahns really cared about!
We started a campaign that said, "Wind Power Can Fund Schools!" The marketing pull, which included billboards, prompted thousands to go to our web site. Policymakers began supporting wind power and soon, with an almost unanimous vote, legislators passed their first significant tax incentive package for renewable energy. That market incentive led to the creation of Utah's first wind project in Spanish Fork in June of 2008.
Keep in mind the legislature had only recently voted down a bill that would have required utilities to use renewable sources of energy to generate a small percentage of their electricity. A change in attitude toward wind power was achieved.
Utahns value education and their children, but raising taxes to fund schools wasn't politically popular. At the time Utah ranked dead last in per-pupil funding of education. We tapped into that dissonance and showed how wind power could be a solution for funding schools without raising taxes.That resonated with people! Our billboard and slogan were eventually adopted by the U.S. Department of Energy and other states in their wind power outreach efforts.
The success of the campaign reminded us that good marketing often is a matter of reaching your target audiences' hearts, and not just their heads. Water conservation wasn't nearly as important to Utahns as children, schools, and taxes. Had we stubbornly refused to abandon the water conservation message our story would have had a different ending.
The idea of being flexible and fine-tuning innovative approaches is constant not just in marketing but in business in general. In our case, we let the winds of change provide some education for us. We adjusted our approach, and helped ignite a new renewable energy industry in Utah.

Mainstream media have once again upheld their role as promoters and propagandists for the evolutionary theory. Never mind reporting the facts—after all, the truth might be boring or lead to poor ratings. Thus, when anthropologist Tim White announced a new discovery from the Middle Awash region, newspapers were quick to describe his discovery as completing the evolutionary chain for humans. Paul Ricon, staff writer for BBC News noted: "Fossil hunters have found remains of a probable direct ancestor of humans that lived more than four million years ago. The specimens of this ancient creature are helping bridge a long gap during a crucial phase of human evolution" (2006). The first sentence of Robert Sanders press release for the University of California, Berkeley, stated: "New fossils discovered in the Afar desert of eastern Ethiopia are a missing link between our ape-man ancestors some 3.5 million years ago and more primitive hominids a million years older, according to an international team led by the University of California, Berkeley, and Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico" (2006, emp. added).
The sensationalism centers around a paper that reported the discovery of 30 fossils (read that—mainly "teeth fragments") which highlighted two different phenomena (see White, et al., 2006). Eight of those fossils are alleged to belong to Australopithecus anamensis. This finding was amazing, because prior to this report there were only a scant few fossils representing this group, and "the only known specimens of this species came from northern Kenya, about 1,000 kilometers to the southwest" (Dalton, 440:1100). The second intriguing point the authors imply is that this find places Australopithecus anamensis within walking distance of another site, where the team found fossils of an alleged earlier species called Ardipithecus ramidus, and also close to fossils of Australopithecus afarensis (the species to which Lucy belongs). Three alleged missing links all dated at different time periods. They felt like this discovery completed the evolutionary chain of life. But what is the truth?
In 1994, Tim White (the lead author of this current study) and his coworkers described a new hominid species known as Australopithecus ramidus (White, et al., 1994, 371:306-312) that is allegedly over five million years old. The initial discovery in 1993 included seventeen fossils (mainly dental) found in this same Awash region. Later in 1994, a mandible and partial postcranial skeleton of a single individual was found. Tim White and his colleagues described the cranial fossils as "strikingly chimpanzee-like in morphology" (371:310)—an admission that has now been all but forgotten. They also stated that the pieces of arm bone were described as exhibiting "a host of characteristics usually associated with modern apes" (371:311). In a strange move, White completely reclassified this creature one year later. It is now known as Ardipithecus ramidus (1995, 375:88). Interestingly, White has never released the Ardipithecus monograph—meaning, for the last decade other scientists have been unable to evaluate completely his claims. This move did not stop Donald Johanson (the discoverer of "Lucy") in the March 1996 issue of National Geographic, from admitting that Ardipithecus ramidus possessed "many chimp-like features" and that "its position on the human family tree is in question" (189[3]:117).
A different creature that is alleged to be younger (and thus viewed as evolving from Aridipithecus ramidus) is known as Australopithecus anamensis. In 1965, a research team from Harvard University discovered a small piece of a left humerus in the Kanapoi region of East Lake, Turkana in Africa. It would be thirty years later before that bone was classified as a member of the Australopithecus anamensis group. Except for a single molar discovered in 1982, no further A. anamensis fossils were found until the early 1990s when Meave Leakey and her coworkers announced a new discovery. The latest fossils—which contain no postcranial material, and consist almost exclusively of teeth—are dated at 3.8-4.2 million years old. But what do we know about this creature that is made up almost exclusively of teeth? The respected Archaeologyinfo.com Web site explained: "The dental apparatus of A. anamensis is markedly ape-like," and "in general, the dentition of A. anamensis is very primitive for a hominid." Many evolutionists have described both A. ramidus and A. anamensis as twigs on the evolutionary tree of life—twigs that eventually died out. White's latest paper is trying to solidify their position on the beloved evolutionary tree. In fact, he believes his discovery allows him to dictate what the evolutionary tree of life looks like.
So exactly what have Tim White and his team claimed? One of the co-authors of the Nature article noted: "We just found the chain of evolution, the continuity through time. One form evolved to another. This is evidence of evolution in one place through time" (Borenstein, 2006). That same article noted: "Until now, what scientists had were snapshots of human evolution scattered around the world. Finding everything all in one general area makes those snapshots more of a mini home movie of evolution" (Borenstein, 2006). As Rex Dalton observed: "The team suggests three species evolved as a single lineage between at least 4.4 million years ago and 2.9 million years ago" (2006, 440:1100).
A mini movie and the chain of evolution? These are enormous claims. Claims that would cause the average person to wonder just what kind of scientific evidence they possess to bridge this gap. After all, claiming to have put all of the missing links in place would—it would seem—require a great deal of fossil evidence. So exactly what do they actually have to back up their enormous claims? A close inspection of the original Nature article reveals that this entire controversy stems over several broken teeth and a few jawbones, and a thighbone. White, et al., noted:
Specimen ARA-VP-14/1 is a left maxilla with fragmentary crowns of I2 [incisor-BH] and M2-M3 [molar-BH], broken canine, premolar and molar roots, and adjacent palatal and lateral maxiallary surface. The right maxilla contains the broken P4 [premolar-BH] root and damaged molar crowns.... Associated dental rows ASI-VP-2/2 and ASI-VP-2/334 are from separate individuals. They definitely place the Asa Issie sample within expected ranges of Au. anamensis variation (2006, 440:885).

They definitely place the Asa Issie sample within expected ranges of Au. anamensis variation (2006, 440:885).
If you had trouble following all of those abbreviations then maybe the National Geographic account will sum it up better: "The new fossil find consists mainly of jawbone fragments, upper and lower teeth, and a thighbone" (Roach, 2006). That's it—that's all they found!
From those teeth, fragmented jawbones, and the thighbone they have a sequence of evolution? Hardly! So precisely what is the key feature that neatly links these fossils in an evolutionary chain? MSNBC staff writer Seth Borenstein quoted White, who observed: "'This appears to be the link between Australopithecus and Ardipithecus as two different species,' White said. The major noticeable difference between the phases of man can be seen in Australopithecus' bigger chewing teeth to eat harder food, he said" (2006). The actual Nature article records: "Its masticatory apparatus appears better adapted to a more heavily chewed diet of tough and abrasive items" (White, et al., 2006, 440:888). Bigger chewing teeth and now we have the entire evolutionary chain filled in? Recall, this admission appeared in the same article which started with the first sentence: "The latest fossil unearthed from a human ancestral hot spot in Africa allows scientists to link together the most complete chain of human evolution so far" (Borenstein, 2006, emp. added). Such sweeping claims—all from some fragmented teeth!
Jawbone fragments, upper and lower teeth, and a thighbone complete the evolutionary chain? Not everyone is ready to crown Tim White's team as having bridged the gap. Meave Leakey, the lead author on the paper describing A. anamensis, bluntly stated: "I don't believe this. We do not have the specimens to fill the gaps" (Dalton, 2006, 440:1101). Bernard Wood, a paleoanthropologist from George Washington University noted that we "should beware coming out with a complete explanation when we don't have all the evidence" (as quoted in Dalton, 440:1101). Good advice, especially considering Tim White was bold enough to speculate that in his discovery "we can see all three phases of human evolution" (Borenstein, 2006). This discovery does not document human evolution or phases of man. It demonstrates some larger teeth that were found in the Awash region. As Rex Dalton admitted: "Deciding whether our ancestors evolved as a single lineage may depend more on philosophy than fossils" (440:1101).
On Sunday, April 23, 2006, Charles Matthews reviewed Ann Gibbons' latest book The First Human in The Mercury News. In his review, he noted:
In "The First Human," Gibbons, who reports on human evolution for Science magazine, gives a lucid account of the science involved in finding fossils, establishing how old they are, and ascertaining whether they in fact belong to the ancestors of humankind. She also shows how difficult and sometimes dangerous the work of hunting for 7 million-year-old fossils can be. And that, like most humans, anthropologists are subject to such emotions as ambition and jealousy, especially when they're Indiana Jonesing for the next big find (2006 emp. added).

White's claims are simply a publicity stunt to try to make a name for himself. His assertions that they have uncovered three phases of human evolution and that they have completed the evolutionary chain are ludicrous given the paltry amount of fossils reported. Consider what the headlines would have read if he had not speculated and been "Indiana Jonesing" regarding this latest find: "A few large fragmented teeth found in the Awash region." Maybe one day newspapers will report the facts. Until then, continue to expect to be chained up from the truth!

No doubt about it, Apple's huge. Even so, analysts say its been, well, less huge than usual in the past few months. But nevertheless, they're expecting great things from the iPhone maker in the coming year.
If Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White is to be believed, that's because Apple is already planning the launch of its next generation iPhone, the iPhone 5S. As cited by BGR, White explained that the release of the next iPhone is expected to make up for Apple's recent 25% stock drop and that the new device is partly responsible for the fact that "Apple is our top overall pick for 2013."
We know it seems like just yesterday that we were scrambling for cases to fit our newly resized iPhone 5. But Apple didn't get to where it is by resting on its laurels, and a follow up to the iPhone 5 is only to be expected.
According to White, we can expect the next generation sooner rather than later, with a tentative launch date between May and June. There are also musings that "the next iPhone will have more choices for customers," which may entail "an expansion in both the color patterns and screen sizes." If that's true, says BGR, this would be "the first time Apple has released one phone with multiple display size options."
So what can we then expect from accessories for the newest iPhone? Maybe open-front clear cases that show off the iPhone 5S' bright new colors and fit the different screen options? That's just a guess, so we'll have to wait til summer, if the rumors are true, to really find out.

Dear Pastafarians
I am writing to you hoping to find a stronger understanding of your views and opinions of what 'love' is. I am hoping to compare this with the unrealistic views of what the media perceives 'love' to be.
The media looks at love as a purely romantic experience between two people with who experience an unrealistic never-ending attraction towards each other (which in reality is nothing more than lust). The media also displays love to be between family, friends, and even to objects (for example: one may love his car).
I would like to know how The Church Of The Flying Spaghetti Monster defines 'love', and what it means to be a Pastafarian. I have attached five questions below and your answers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I look forward to your responses.
Ben Goldsworthy
1.How would The Church Of The Flying Spaghetti Monster define 'love'?
2.How do you and the other Pastafarians of The Church Of The Flying Spaghetti Monster view 'love'?
3.What types of love do you recognize? (for example: love towards a partner, love towards family and friends, love towards objects, etc.)
4.Do you find any forms of love unacceptable? (weather sexual or non-sexual)
5.How does your definition of love differ to how it is viewed on the media?

USNA Midshipmen, Leadership Celebrate Navy Birthday with City of Annapolis
Posted on: October 07, 2013 12:00 EDT by U.S. Naval Academy Public Affairs
The city of Annapolis and the U.S. Naval Academy rang in the 238th birthday of the U.S. Navy with a breakfast at the historic Calvert House Oct. 7.
Naval Academy Superintendent Vice Adm. Mike Miller joined Annapolis Mayor Josh Cohen, Anne Arundel County Executive Laura Newman, and other distinguished area leadership in celebrating the close relationship the Naval Academy and the Navy enjoy in the Annapolis area.
"Annapolis is in so many ways a Navy town," said Cohen. "The Navy gives back to this community in so many ways, and the midshipmen truly live out the spirit of service."
Cohen talked at length about the myriad community service projects USNA midshipmen participate in around the area. The Naval Academy Midshipman Action Group (MAG) has traditionally volunteered at events such as Harvest for the Hungry and Mids for Kids, a mentoring program for school children at the Annapolis Stanton Center and St. Mary's. Harvest for the Hungry helps feed Annapolis homeless during Thanksgiving and the holiday season, benefitting the Asbury Methodist Church.
"I've been here for 66 of the Navy birthdays in Annapolis," said Michael E. Busch, speaker of the Maryland House of Delegates. "There is no better partner than the U.S. Naval Academy."
Miller emphasized that partnership with Annapolis and all of the local community and thanked the assembled guests for their continued support.
"This broad body of friends collected here today is special," he said.All of the speakers at the breakfast mentioned how the Naval Academy and Navy personnel play such a vital role in supporting the local economy and Annapolis small businesses. Local businesses Alpaca International, Peppers, and the MainStreets Annapolis Partnership joined the City of Annapolis in sponsoring the breakfast.

Lichen nitidus (LIE-kun ni-TIE-dus) is a rare skin condition that usually appears as tiny, skin-colored, glistening bumps on the surface of your skin. Lichen nitidus results from abnormal inflammatory activity in skin cells, but the cause of inflammation is unknown.
Although lichen nitidus may affect anyone, it typically develops in children and young adults. Lichen nitidus rarely causes discomfort and usually clears up on its own without treatment.
Lichen nitidus doesn't increase your risk of skin cancer, and it isn't an infectious disease that can spread to other people.
Lichen nitidus appears as clusters of tiny, glistening bumps (papules). Characteristics of the bumps include the following:
See your doctor if tiny bumps or a rash-like condition appears on your skin for no apparent reason, such as a known allergic reaction or contact with poison ivy. Because a number of conditions can cause skin reactions, it's best to get a prompt and accurate diagnosis.
Get immediate care if your skin condition is accompanied by other signs and symptoms, such as:
The cause of lichen nitidus is unknown. The papules that appear are the result of inflammation controlled by white blood cells called T lymphocytes. Normally, these cells are active at the site of disease or injury. Doctors and researchers don't know what prompts T lymphocytes to be activated in lichen nitidus.
Lichen nitidus seems to be more likely to develop in children and young adults.
Because lichen nitidus is rare, most information about the disorder is known from individual cases or very small studies, rather than from large studies that generally produce more reliable information. Therefore, possible associations observed between lichen nitidus and other diseases aren't well understood. However, lichen nitidus may be associated with:
Lichen nitidus is a harmless condition that doesn't result in long-term skin problems or medical complications. However, the appearance of lichen nitidus may cause a person to be self-conscious or embarrassed.
You'll likely start by seeing your child's pediatrician or your primary care doctor if your child or you are experiencing a skin condition. You may then be referred to a specialist in skin disorders (dermatologist).
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and what to expect from your doctor.
For lichen nitidus, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor or dermatologist will likely ask you a number of questions regarding the symptoms. Be prepared to answer the following:
Lichen nitidus generally clears up on its own, without any treatment, so there's nothing specific you need to do while waiting to see the doctor.
Your doctor or dermatologist makes a diagnosis of lichen nitidus or another skin condition based on the information you provide about the symptoms and a careful examination of the skin abnormality.
Your doctor may use a magnifying glass to look at your skin. Or he or she may take a small sample of tissue (biopsy) and look at it under a microscope.
For most people, lichen nitidus lasts for a few months to a year. The condition usually clears up on its own without treatment. After it clears up, the appearance of the skin is usually normal with no scarring or permanent change to skin color.
If lichen nitidus causes itching or if you have concerns about your appearance or your child's appearance, your doctor may prescribe one of the following treatments:
Because retinoid can cause birth defects, it shouldn't be used by women who are pregnant or who might become pregnant. Your doctor can advise you on necessary precautions.

The Rangers have signed Roman Horak, the team's fifth round
pick in 2009. Horak, 19, posted 26 goals
and 52 assists in 64 games for the WHL's Chilliwack Bruins this season. Next year he'll almost certainly end up with
the Connecticut Whale.
Horak hales from the Czech
Republic but has completed two full
seasons in North America with the Bruins. In 2009-2010, he tallied 21 goals and 26
assists in 66 games. Obviously, Horak
exploded this season and many were puzzled about why he hadn't received a deal
Today's news makes it very clear that Horak is indeed part
of the Rangers' plans. He joins Ryan
Bourque, Carl Hagelin, and Dylan McIlrath as prospects the Rangers have signed
this offseason. Still un-signed are
Chris Kreider, Scott Stajcer, Ethan Werek and Christian Thomas, although Thomas
should be inking his deal any day now.
- Also, in case you missed it yesterday, the Stanley Cup
will be in New Jersey
tomorrow. Andrew Gross reports that
the Stanley
Cup will be in Hackensack, New Jersey on Saturday from 3:30-6:00. It'll
be on display at Ice House hockey rink and fans will have the opportunity to
get their picture taken with the Cup for free.

Make A "New" 3.5 Gallon Tank
ted mentioned your email and the tanks. he seemed to be considering trying again .? there are diff.people now that do things better ? well maybe. - jw
Great, go over there to make sure they're made right. No balloon tanks. 3" across the back, you know?, not 3-1/4" or 3-1/2". Measure the distance of the right nipple to the tab mount surface. Drop those fill neck openings. No Shovel vents. Use a lighter gauge metal for those mount tabs too. I'll settle with stick-on Harley-Davidson®, if I have to have emblems, since the stick-on's come with the same base plate screws as early OEM ones.
You know the way the real tanks feel then you hold them. They're such a lop shape, real tank halves want to jump out of your hand, like a fish. Thanks for quarterbacking the move. - Plumber
Thanks for the Paughco suggestion Chris.
Thanks for the leak fix remedy John HD.

So more and more I am reading about hikers buying bug nets for their MLD DuoMid from companies other than MLD.This makes me scratch my head and wonder, "what in the heck is it that people do not like about the InnerNet??"Been wondering this for months and I keep meaning to post this... but I just did not want to cause any kind of flamewar or read a bunch of hyperbole, so please, be honest, but lets be respectful at the same time.
I ordered a Cuben DuoMid a couple weeks ago. I did not purchase the MLD inner net, as I'm looking for something with higher side walls for use in cooler weather. I purchased a 2nd hand Oookworks Oooknest for my Duomid.
I preferred an Oooknest over an Innernet because it uses (for the most part) solid fabric instead of netting. My thinking was:
I'm pretty satisfied with my MLD Duomid and MLD inner net. It does its job, keeping me cozy, dry, and bug free. I wish the combination were a bit lighter, that's all.
This isn't an answer to your exact question, but... I simply don't like inner nets at all. I have one for my SuperMid and it's a PITA. I've come to the conclustion that inner nets sort of obviate the whole point of using a tarp in the first place and I've come instead to rely upon a minimalist bivy (MLD SuperLite) when I need bug protection or whatnot. A bivy also removes the need for a ground sheet. The SuperLite is MUCH lighter and MUCH less fussy, and doesn't reduce usable floorspace the way that an inner net does. I prefer it immensely. Thus when I bought my DuoMid as my "solo" shelter I didn't get any sort of inner net at all.Of course, I live in the Rockies, where the mosquitoes generally don't need FAA clearance to land...
Edited by acrosome on 01/12/2013 08:53:35 MST.
I'm with Dean. Plus if it is a decent night, just use the bivy.
++ to DeanMaybe 10 months out of the year there are few bugs, and the other 2 months I can usually find places where the bugs aren'tI have a 4 foot diameter of netting I just rest on top of me for the rare case I can't escape themSome people seem to be more attractive to bugs so have to use better defenses
Had a Solo Innernet for a while (and Solomid). It was just OK. (nothing more)For lightness in the right situation it is adequate as long as all you want to do is lie down - for sitting up, it hung too loosely between the back corners however I tried tweaking it.Whilst I appreciate that the minimalist design pattern of the rear panel reduces weight, (and allows quicker/cheaper construction ;)) it's not that great in terms of utilising the space of the shelter it hangs in unless modified a little. Also, for me, if using an inner at all,(as opposed to just a floor or bivi,) in the wet windy (even often in summer)climate I backpack in, for 2-3 more ounces, a (at least partially) solid-walled inner with a T shaped zipper/fully opening doorway is preferable. (One that hangs tautly and fits the whole space it takes up nicely)

Carbon Tent pole w/adjuster 4.9 oz8- 7" alum stakes 6.7 0z ------------- 3.77 lbs. My tent package is lighter. I guess the ground cloth could be eliminated if you didn't worry about putting holes in the InnerNet.This has kind of got me rethinking the flat tarp package:Bearpaw 8x10 tarp 14.8 ozMLD Serenity Shelter 9.45 ozTyvek ground sheet- 52x84" 11.05 ozeaston carbon poles 3/8" 3.55 oz8- 7" alum stakes 6.7 oz -------------- 2.84 lbs
IMO the entire meme of a "need" for a groundsheet or footprint for a tent that already has a floor is a scam. If you poke a hole in your tent floor 99% of the time it's little more than a pinhole and a little SilNet or other silicone seam-sealer will fix it. Why carry another pound of footprint? IIRC Henry Shires agrees with me, so at least I'm in good company. :)So, yes, I'd say that you can do without the groundsheet when you use the (floored) inner net. And for the tarp I'd still rather use the bivy.

Carbon Tent pole w/adjuster 4.9 oz>8- 7" alum stakes 6.7 0z-------------3.77 lbs. Woah, these weight estimations are very high. I wouldn't want folks getting the impression that Duomid use implies this kind of weight. Maybe you're working with a silnylon Duomid, but still. My cuben Duomid is 13 oz., seam sealed with all lines. The innernet is around 10 oz. and it has a complete bathtub floor so I would never bring a Tyvek ground sheet, even on rock. Titanium is also lighter than alum stakes. I also would never hike without hiking poles, so pole weight is extraneous. Just saying.

Wow that is a lot of weight to be carrying for a DuoMid based shelter system.My setup:11.16oz - MLD DuoMid - cuben, with guylines, protoype with a few less bells.9.98oz - Solo inner net tent MYOG from another BPL'er.2.97oz - Eight stakes: 4 alum Y stakes + 4 ti hooks0.08oz - Zpacks cuben stake sack0.53oz - MLD stuff sack for the whole setup--------------1.54 lbs (24.7oz)I'd ditch that Tyvek extra floor or the inner tent. No need for both. Get the stake weight down. You can get 8 great stakes for 4oz easy. I'd look at lighter guylines, unless somebody really slopped the seam seal on there, a silnylon DuoMid with guylines shouldn't be over 20oz. Mine was 19.2oz all in and I felt that was heavily seam sealed.Oh and I don't have anything against the MLD inner net. My DuoMid just happened to come with this MYOG inner.
Edited by dandydan on 01/13/2013 14:30:05 MST.
Yes the weights are a little off. My DuoMid seam sealed with all bottom lines attached was 19 oz. I used a polycro footprint that a was 1.5 oz.
I just re-weighed everything and got the same figures (except for the stakes. There must have been more then 8 in the first bunch. 8 of the y alum stakes that I just weighed were 4.2 oz). The cord attached to the shelter is parachute cord not spectra, I don't know how much difference that would make.To verify the scale (on Monday) I'll weigh something at home and then take it down to UPS and see if they get the same reading. I'm hoping my scale is off.Re the Tyvek ground sheet- Yeah I guess it would be redundant with the net.BTW, this web site (everyone here) is such a wealth of great information. I've been learning a lot since I discovered it and certainly appreciate everyone's collective knowledge.
I'll just point out that, compared to your 10 to 15 oz inner nets, my SuperLight bivy with cuben bottom weighs less than 6 oz and doesn't require any fussing to install. And you can use it with any tarp that you care to, rather than just the one it's fitted to like the inner net. And it arguably helps you sleep more warmly. Until you start talking about really huge mids it's always going to be lighter- though clearly more expensive- to give everyone an individual bivy than to have the inner net.Just sayin'.EDIT- But OTOH, before I talk someone into something for which they aren't prepared, the big downside of a bivy is condensation. If you aren't careful you can perspire yourself into total down collapse. My bivy has the optional larger netting window for better ventilation. In really cold weather (i.e. when the dewpoint tends to be actually INSIDE your down bag) you can mitigate this with a VBL liner or clothing. Of course a VBL sleeping bag liner is 5 more ounces, thus negating the weight advantage (but still a hell of a lot warmer).On the gripping hand, if you're using a mid you probably really don't need protection from rain spray- you just want a ground sheet and bug protection. For that, there are bug bivies like the MLD version, 6 oz (5 oz in cuben). Not much of a condensation problem with a mesh bivy...Of course bivies work best for people like me who do nothing in their shelters but sleep. If you camp more than hike you probably want the inner net.
Edited by acrosome on 01/14/2013 10:56:51 MST.
You can get a cuben VBL liner that goes for a lot less than 5oz, I've got one from Zpacks that weights in at 2oz.
The MLD ones are great.But I do I prefer an inverted T zip so I don't have to work around a half door and higher bathtub walls are nice for soggy conditions.Bivys rock too!
Regarding the above weights that I posted a couple of days ago. I went to the post office today and verified that my scale is accurate.
My sealed Duomid with MLD supplied guy lines topped the scale at 23.1oz. I'm sure all of our weights are correct. It's a lot of fabric.

Here's 2.2! (in a trailer form)
And here's 2.1 if you missed it.
Currently Playing [IGN]: (Say Hi if you see me!)
please check out my ffxiv blog, i will be posting information along with play videos ive made, its brand new so please check back often
I would actually say to look at a different game. FFXIV is very polished yes... but it has implemented a flawed system. FFXIV is set up so once you hit endgame you grind grind grind for top gear, then you are done. There is nothing else to do in the game, then a new update and you grind grind grind for the NEW gear, then you are done again. Once again there is nothing to do. This is they system they implemented and this is ALL you will be doing if you play this game.
Not to mention the horrible job implementation. All there is are tank, healer, or dps. There are no utility jobs. No jobs bring anything unique to a party because each job has their own buffs. You either heal, dps, or tank. There is no point in even leveling more than one dps job because they are all exactly the same as far as your roll in a group.
Not to mention this game is dooming itself. It is a huge red flag when whenever new content is released, they make everything before it easier and more accessible. That just annoys me to no end. They just take away any challenge they actually had in the game. They hand everything to everyone, which isn't fun. And I am a casual gamer and feel this way!
Then the crafting. Goodness me. The crafting is absolutely and utterly useless and just something to waste time on. I leveled 3 jobs to lvl 50 and have them geared. I NEVER purchased ANYTHING ANYONE has crafted. That just goes to show the utter uselessness of it. NO one actually needs anything you make which makes it completely lame to craft. I had no interest in it after realizing this.
Needless to say I cancelled my sub just a while ago and am not looking back. The game was fun for a time but when you realize the crappy the endgame actually is and how they have locked themselves into this wash, rinse, repeat endgame cycle... it is not worth money.

Comments about Patagonia Pelage Jacket (Women's):
The Pelage jacket is true to size. I'm 5'4", 115# and size small fits perfectly. I love that it's windproof without being heavy or bulky. It's very fashionable and looks great with jeans, skirts, dresses, etc. My only potentially negative about the Pelage is that the plastic snaps are very hard to open and I fear ripping the material if I'm not very careful in unsnapping them.

I saw this jacket in pearl at a local store. After touching it, I had to have it (I bought it in grey, which has a fun hot pink lining). Both colors are fantastic. The jacket is incredibly soft (I find myself absentmindedly petting my own arm as I drive). I never thought I'd think of a fleece as having flexibility to be "dressy", but this jacket does.

Read: Joe Thornton Didn't Mean To Call The Rangers Soft (JOHN TORTORELLA RIPS HIM)
Update: 3:36PM:
Update: 2:49PM: Pat Leonard of the Daily News has this quote from Torts on Thornton:
"Yeah it caught me off-guard when it was brought up after the game," Tortorella said at the team's Greenburgh practice facility Tuesday morning. "It surprised me, and I've never heard a player say that. Joe's a heck of a player, but here's a player popping off about our team, and Joe hasn't won a g–damn thing in this league. He could go down as a player, being one of the better players in our league never to win anything. So what he should do is just shutup. It was uncalled for, it was classless, and I've never had it happen like that before."
When told about the comments last night, Tortorella responded "wonderful."
If only Torts had also mentioned that he didn't deserve the Hart Trophy in 2006 and that everyone knows that Jaromir Jagr did.
Original Post: Last night, following the Rangers 5-2 defeat of the Sharks, San Jose captain Joe Thornton called the Rangers "soft" and thought that his team should have picked up the two points.
Thornton apparently didn't mean to insult the Rangers with his comment:
Adam Rotter: Whatever. The Rangers won and won't play the Sharks until next season unless it is in the Stanley Cup finals. Players don't forget though. So the next time Joe Thornton is on the ice, I am pretty sure that he will find out how soft the Rangers are.

In another sign that the Ranger-pocalypse may be subsiding, defensemen Ilkka Heikkinen and Bobby Sanguinetti were returned to Hartford this weekend with Matt Gilroy returning to the big club, as reported on our Twitter.
As the team looks to win it's third straight against the Carolina Hurricanes tonight, there are elements that the Rangers may have turned the corner and be returning to their early season form.
While two wins isn't enough to justify the abysmal December that the club otherwise had, the play in those two wins came from important contributors.
Chris Drury and Ryan Callahan, two players who have been at the ire of Head Coach John Tortorella this season, have regained their form, chipping in offensively while playing with a renewed desire and passion.
And while there wasn't much improvement needed, goaltender Henrik Lundqvist has been sharp and the focal reason the Rangers have gotten back to winning.
Looking more confident between the pipes, Lundqvist recorded 36 saves in the Rangers' 2 - 1 victory at Philadephia and 35 against the Islanders.

Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a "skin." There are several advantages to the powder coating process, the main one being that it does not require solvents, and only minor amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are released during the cure.

After completing her college career as a shortstop for Syracuse University in the spring, Morgan Nandin is just happy to be able to continue playing softball at a high level.
She and several other recent college and high school graduates, as well as current college players, are among those participating in whats become a summer tradition in the north country the Can-Am Softball Shootout which draws teams from across the state as well as Canada.
The fast-pitch event, which continues to grow every year, now includes a new competition players under the age of 23 who are older than 18 one which tournament organizers hope will take root as a class of its own.
This is definitely really cool because a couple of us on the team just graduated from college and its kind of depressing not being able to play any more at a competitive level like this, said Nandin, who plays for the Battery Lightning Gold team based in the Rochester area. So this is a good opportunity for us to dust off the cobwebs a little bit, come out here and play the sport we love.
In what is becoming a trend around the state, more and more softball leagues are fielding under-23 teams and the Can-Am tournament is the latest to include this age group, also known as an open class.
Some six teams in this new category are competing in the event which began Saturday at Jefferson Community College and concludes today with a single-elimination tournament. Its part of the larger tournament that includes five other age divisions scatterered throughout north country sites.
As a team this is the only one (tournament) this group has been in, Hazens Classics Powder Blue coach Ed Mahar said. We pretty much assembled this group to compete here.
Many of the squads feature a blend of young and older players as some have just completed high school, while others are in college or are recent graduates.
We have a mix, we have some girls who just graduated college, some in college and some who just graduated high school, Tonawanda Storm coach Jay Hall said. We had a pretty good 18-and-under team and now theyre old enough, so we moved them up and formed this team.
Its definitely a good opportunity for the girls going into college to play against girls who have been there, said Nandin, who recently graduated from Syracuse. They can ask questions and experience the speed because its a lot different than high school. So its a good preview of what they can expect when they go on to college.
Tori Poplaski is a member of the Battery Lightning Golds under-18 team, but chose to play with the Hazens Classics Powder Blue squad this tournament and faced the Battery Lightning Gold team Saturday.
Most of us play in a Thursday night league together and we signed up for this team, said Poplaski, a recent graduate of Waterloo High School. I really like it because I play 18-and-under normally in the summer, but this last game we were playing against players from Syracuse University, so thats pretty cool.
While Poplaski is headed to college at the University of Rochester, Nandin is adjusting to life after collegiate softball.
We dont really have that next level, like baseball they have a lot of opportunities, said Nandin, a North Syracuse native whose father Robert played as an infielder for the Syracuse Chiefs. We only have professional softball and we only have four or five teams and not a lot of people know about them. Its just good to keep playing.
The Tonawanda Storms under-23 team is comprised of mainly players from Western New York. The Can-Am event is one of five open tournaments on the teams schedule.
Theres not that many around, we really have to look to find them, Hall said. But this level is growing.
Overall, the Cam-Am Softball Shootout has grown to 80 teams this year.
Well definitely make this one an annual event, Battery Lightning Gold coach Todd Locey said. And its going to help because I understand theyre going to open it up to an open tournament next year, so theyll get some of the older group teams to come out.

CANTON The New Year will see a financially sustainable hospital in Gouverneur that will provide services in a more collaborative way through an asset purchase agreement authorized Friday by state Supreme Court Justice David R. Demarest.
This has been a very difficult time for the hospital, Judge Demarest said in court. I commend Canton-Potsdam Hospital for taking on this burden. It means a lot to both communities. Good luck everybody.
Judge Demarest authorized Gouverneur Hospital, a newly created nonprofit organization, to purchase the assets of E.J. Noble Hospital and its affiliate, Kinney Nursing Home. The closing is expected to take place before Jan. 1.
Gouverneur Hospital will operate under a two-hospital health-care organization St. Lawrence Health System which also includes Canton-Potsdam Hospital. E.J. Nobles board will continue on an interim basis to ease the transition. Marlinda L. LaValley, former vice president of administrative services at CPH, is CEO of Gouverneur Hospital.
The arrangement is the start of a comprehensive health-care system that will benefit the region by delivering services in a more quality-focused and coordinated fashion that allows for better recruitment of medical professionals and improved partnerships, Canton-Potsdam Hospital Administrator David B. Acker said.
This is not about an acquisition, he said. This is a mission.
The reorganization plan provides a way for health services to continue in Gouverneur under an entity that is solvent, which E.J. Noble was not.
The deal involves a complicated financial arrangement to dispose of E.J. Nobles $16 million debt and operating losses amassed over a number of years.
Few of E.J. Nobles creditors emerge whole, but virtually all will receive some return. Local vendors were previously paid and certain unsecured critical vendors, such as utilities, will receive their full due. The plan provides $396,000 for other unsecured creditors, of which there are many.
Those claims could reach $800,000, although a total is uncertain. The court will decide the financial distribution at a later date.
The $396,000 for the unsecured creditors will come from CPHs return of its fees for managing E.J. Noble. CPH also provided E.J. Noble with a cash infusion of $500,000 which it will forgive, Mr. Acker said.
Of a $9.3 million Healthcare Efficiency and Affordability Law grant through the state Health Department, $4 million went to the National Automatic Sprinkler Pension Fund, which holds the $11 million in bonds on E.J. Nobles recent building expansion. The pension fund also received debt service reserve funds of nearly $1 million. When Gouverneur Hospital takes over E.J. Noble, the pension fund will receive a base amount of $2.5 million, along with about $2.15 million from accounts receivable, which CPH will then try to collect.
Restricted donor funds in E.J. Nobles endowment of $943,000, which the court had earlier allowed to be used as collateral for credit, will not be tapped for the pension fund, but will instead likely be the subject of another court petition to transfer them to Gouverneur Hospital, said Deanna R. Nelson, assistant attorney general, who was also in court.
Other state funding may be available to give the pension fund an additional $900,000. If it is not forthcoming, the investment group will be satisfied with its settlement, Mr. Acker said.
Money from the HEAL grant also went to pay back the bulk of a $5.3 million loan from the Dormitory Authority, but because the state was unable to provide additional funding for E.J. Nobles projected fourth quarter operating losses for 2013, Gouverneur Hospital will start off with $1.5 million still owed the Dormitory Authority.

Internet Free/Busy (IFB) is a feature of Microsoft Outlook that allows you to see when others are free or busy so that you can efficiently schedule meetings. Outlook users have the option to publish their free/busy information to a user-specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL) file server. You can share this URL file server with all users or limit it to a specific set of users.
An Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard called iCal, is the basis for IFB. IFB uses a part of the iCal standard called iCalendar, an emerging standard for the format and storage of schedule information. iCalendar defines a structure for representing free/busy information in a standardized way.
