Interviewing an aboriginal elder by the name of Djalalingba in Australia's Northern Territory, David Quammen, a "Balanda" or white guy, attempts to gain some insight into the connection the Yolngu people have with the healthy population of local predators that patrol the region's waterways, Bäru or crocodiles:
"Balanda people don't understand the Yolngu connection to Bäru, he says. "They only think: only animal." Noticing me scribbling notes, Djalalingba shrugs impatiently. No no no, foolish man, you can't learn anything from a short visit, you can't grab these truths and carry them off. Have you come a long way? Yes, I say, from America. He nods. Well, the only way you could grasp Yolngu beliefs, he says would be by spending the years necessary to enter Yolngu culture through Yolngu language.
Undeniably true, I think–and sadly impossible, within the scope of what I'm trying to do. (Before tackling Yolngu, I would need also to learn Gujarati, in order to see the lion through Maldhari eyes, and then there would be Romanian, for the brown bear, and then Udege for the tiger, and then…) But I don't offer this lame excuse to Djalingba. I merely set my notebook aside, to avoid causing hum further aggravation."
I come across passages like this from time to time which express an almost mythical imagining of how languages stand as portals into other strange worlds of perception, lamenting at the impossibility of ever understanding the 'encapsulated universes' people inhabit as a result of the languages they speak.
Probably one of the most famous examples of the strange worlds people with different languages might occupy is that of the Eskimo's extra-large vocabulary for that frozen white stuff…
However, in his essay on the topic, this is what G.K. Pullum called, "The Great Eskimo Vocabulary Hoax," (click link for PDF) and as most linguists you ask are quick to note, the notion that Eskimos categorize their snowy world into a much richer lexicographic landscape simply because they have to deal with the white stuff so much, was originally spawned from a brief passage written by Benjamin Whorf in 1940, and,
"was quoted and reprinted in more subsequent books than you could shake a flamethrower at; the creature was already loose and regenerating itself all over the ship" – G.K. Pullum (1991)
But Pullum's ultimate goal with tracking the historical unfolding of the 'Eskimo vocab-creature's' regeneration through the space ship of academia, was not so much to deubunk the myth of a huge Eskimo vocabulary for snow, but rather to illustrate that,
"the tragedy (of the great Eskimo hoax) is not that so many people got the facts wildly wrong; it is that in the mentally lazy land and anti-intellectual world we live in today, hardly anyone cares enough to think about trying to determine what the facts are."
Fairly strong words but when it comes to getting our facts straight, especially with a topic brimming to the top with all sorts of wild ideas, he's got a very good point.
Does the language(s) you speak influence the way you think? And if so, how and to what degree?
Does the way we describe and relate to time in English in a variety of ways that seem to stem from our common aphorism that "time is money," to take one tiny example, influence our more abstract notions of time? "Spend time, waste time, save time, buy time…etc…" Do you have particular habits of thinking, and how is this related to the language you speak, if at all?
And if we didn't have language, would we think much differently, or would be able to think at all?
It's hard to avoid talking about language and thought without mentioning the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, that epically controversial hypothesis named after a linguist and his mentor, which continues to rumble around in the world of academic language studies constantly being revived, declared dead or transformed or abstracted to accommodate the development radically new understandings of language, at least in the field of applied linguistics.
By now, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis has become what I like to think of as a 'Vampire Hypothesis,' an idea that continues to engage our imagination and which refuses to die through each generation…rendered immortal by our fascination with it, haunting and mesmerizing the populace indefinitely.
In a nutshell, the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis seeks to explain two things: linguistic relativity and linguistic diversity. Rather than offer up my own explanation, I'll just toss out a few memorable quotations from the duo that kindled one of the most controversial debates in the study of language: Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf.
(Note: I should add that there's a lot of intellectual mud to wade through in coming to a better understanding of this topic, partly because of the misunderstandings and misrepresentations fueling the fire of this "controversy," so in this post, I'll just be laying out some interesting ideas as a nice shrubbery foundation for future pruning and ornamentation :-).
The linguist Edward Sapir kicks off the linguistic relativity ball with the following provocative statement:
Human beings do not live in the objective world alone, nor alone in the world of social activity as ordinarily understood, but are very much at the mercy of the particular language which has become the medium of expression for their society. It is quite an illusion to imagine that one adjusts to reality essentially without the use of language and that language is merely an incidental means of solving specific problems of communication or reflection…
The fact of the matter is that the 'real world' is to a large extent unconsciously built up on the language habits of the group…We see and hear and otherwise experience very largely as we do because the language habits of our community predispose certain choices of interpretation. – Edward Sapir in "The Status of Linguistics as a Science,' Language, Vol.5 pp. 209-210
Don't worry, those gasoline drums are 'empty!'
Picking up the linguistic relativity ball, Benjamin Whorf provided the now famous 'empty gasoline drum' example in giving an instance of how language influences human beings' behavior in interacting with the world.
"…around a storage of what are called "gasoline drums," behavior will tend to a certain type, that is, great care will be exercised; while around a storage of what are called "empty gasoline drums" it will tend to be different-careless, with little repression of smoking or of tossing cigarette stubs about. Yet the "empty" drums are perhaps the more dangerous, since they contain explosive vapor. Physically the situation is hazardous, but the linguistic analysis according to regular analogy must employ the word "empty," which inevitably suggests lack of hazard."
Whorf goes on…
"Thus our linguistically determined thought world not only collaborates with our cultural idols and ideals, but engages even our unconscious personal reactions in its patterns and gives them certain typical characters….Very many of the gestures made by English-speaking people at least, and probably by all SAE (Standard American English) speakers, serve to illustrate, by a movement in space, not a real spatial reference but one of the nonspatial references that our language handles by metaphors of imaginary space.
That is, we are more apt to make a grasping gesture when we speak of grasping an elusive idea than when we speak of grasping a doorknob. The gesture seeks to make a metaphorical and hence somewhat unclear reference more clear. But, if a language refers to nonspatials without implying a spatial analogy, the reference is not made any clearer by gesture. The Hopi gesture very little, perhaps not at all in the sense we understand as gesture." – Whorf, 1941
Commenting on Whorf's tantalizing remarks on the influence of language on thought and behavior, especially with Whorf's controversial claims about the Hopi language, Terrence Deacon argues,
"Benjamin Lee Whorf suggested that different languages might be so radically divergent that many basic modes of thinking expressed in one might be found to be utterly untranslatable. I think , in contrast, we should not be surprised by the extent to which even high-level conceptual patterns of linguistic representation and discourse share near-universal features in most languages, simply because we are all members of the same species, sharing many common perceptual, behavioral, and emotional biases."
– Deacon, The Symbolic Species, 1997, p. 121
Deacon's point begins touching on the notion of linguistic diversity, tying the notion to linguistic relativity. John A. Lucy gives us a nice compact way to think of this relation:
"The diversity of human language has long given rise to speculation about its sources and consequences. Why do languages render the same reality so differently and what are the consequences of those differences for human thought? These two questions are in fact intimately related: how we understand language diversity, the ways languages differ in their renderings of reality, greatly affects our approach to understanding linguistic relativity, the effect of linguistic diversity on thought."
50 shades of blue and sexy syntax
I can already see this post is not going to stay bounded within the limits I usually like to set, but it's just too much nerdy fun to stop now!
Lucy's essay is a kick to read, and a very important distinction he makes in explaining the kind of research being done to understand how language influences thought and thus our interpretation of reality is between domain-centered and structure -centered approaches.
Domain-centered approaches to uncovering how the window of language affects our perception of reality involve investigating a 'domain of experience' (such as color or time or space). These experiences of color and space are explored a bit more in depth in Guy Deutscher's 2010 book Through the Language Glass, pointing to research on how Russian speakers and English speakers view colors (blue shades in particular) differently or how the Guugu Yumithirr navigate their environment by reference to the cardinal directions rather than 'left or right' (i.e. the coffee cup is north-east of the book). On a side note, Lera Boroditsky is an up and coming pop-researcher who has been steadily pumping out presentations, research, and books on the topic, and constantly touring the country (I got a chance to see her speak in Dallas, Texas this year!).
On the other hand, we have the structure-centered approaches which investigate a certain grammatical structure, like number, gender or aspect. In writing about "sex and syntax" or the affect of gender on thought, Deutscher colorfully animates the role gender may play in our thought processes with this passage:
Languages that treat inanimate objects as "he" or "she" force their speakers to talk about such objects with the same grammatical forms that are applied to men and women. This habit of he-ing and she-ing objects means that an association between an inanimate noun and one of the sexes is shoved down the speakers' ears whenever they hear the name of this object, and the same association is pushed up their throats whenever they have occasion to mention his or her name themselves. (p. 208)
This last passage from Deutscher echoes an important transition towards getting a better hold on how language could possibly influence our thought and behavior. In order to do this, Deutscher expounds,"we need to abandon the so-called Sapir-Whorf hypothesis…and turn instead to…the Boas-Jakobson principle" (named after the famous anthropologist Franz Boas, and the linguist Roman Jakobson).
So, in a nutshell, if the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis tells us that "languages limit their speakers' ability to express or understand (certain) concepts," the Boas-Jackobson principle tells us that:
"Languages differ essentially in what they must convey and not in what they may convey." (Roman Jakobson, 1959, 236, quoted in Deutscher, 2010, p. 151)
So going back to one of the first posts I wrote on attention, you might say that language influences thought not so much in what your particular language lets you pay attention to, but rather what your language makes you pay attention to. Ortega y Gasset's supposed quip takes on a bit different meaning when we keep the Boas-Jakobson principle in mind:
"Tell me to what you pay attention and I will tell you who you are."
– José Ortega y Gasset?? (no source)
And what if you are bilingual, trilingual, etc… Are you the inhabitant of a multi-verse?
To be continued…
Aneta Pavlenko is coming out with a new book on the topic (The Bilingual Mind) and it looks like it will be an interesting read! I'll be sure to update this post after I give it a read!

The pilots of Marine Attack Squadron 211 kicked off the squadron's deployment to Afghanistan, April 17, beginning their AV-8B Harriers' travels to Southwest Asia.
More than 200 Marines with both the squadron and Marine Aviation Logistics 13 boarded aircraft to follow their brethren the following day..
The squadron, out of Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, will be conducting offensive air operations across the theater in support of the 3rd Marine Air Wing under Operation Enduring Freedom, said Lt. Col. Chris "Otis†Raible, VMA-211's commanding officer.
VMA-211, which will be based out of Kandahar, Afghanistan for the deployment, will be using the Intrepid Tiger II, which will provide electronic warfare capabilities for the AV-8B Harriers of the squadron. The Intrepid Tiger II, a pod that fits to the outside of the aircraft, will have the ability to be controlled from the ground as the aircraft is in flight. This will help balance the heavy demand for electronic warfare capability that is provided for by an insufficient supply of EA-6B Prowlers.
Once the squadron has set up operations in Afghanistan, VMA-211 will be relieving Marine Attack Squadron 223.

Mystic - In the travel business, it's a "shoulder" season, that early-fall period that's decidedly off-peak.
Only this year, in this tourist haven, it's as if summer never ended.
On Monday, Columbus Day, the crowds downtown could have passed for those that packed the streets, shops and restaurants on weekends in July and August. At Mystic Aquarium and Mystic Seaport, parking spaces had grown scarce by midday.
"We had our best summer since 2007, and the fall is up," said Annie Philbrick, co-owner of Main Street's Bank Square Books. "Summer never really stopped. People are just everywhere."
Clearly, unseasonably warm weather deserved much of the credit.
Philbrick, whose store is temporarily shutting down today to expand into a next-door storefront that's been vacant, said balmy conditions are a dependable boon to the downtown trade.
"When it's nice, people want to be outside as opposed to being holed up in a hotel," she said.
The new, bigger Bank Square Books will debut Oct. 22.
Monday's weather and the variety of Mystic's offerings lured Main Street shoppers Valerie Sandin and Julia Ballek from their homes in Haddam and East Haddam, respectively.
"We thought about going to Essex or Chester, but Mystic is bigger," said Sandin, whose mother, Leslie Sandin, happens to live in Mystic. "It's more spread out, and there's lots more to do."
The fall, in particular, tends to attract people from all over the country, including many traveling by recreational vehicle, according to Sally Foster, who greets visitors on weekends and holidays at the Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce's Welcome Center at Mystic Depot.
"They're from Michigan, Arizona, Oregon," she said of the September-October crowd. "They're coming to look at the leaves and they're apt to visit Cape Cod, too. It's a different group of people than we see in the summer. They get along with each other. … I love the fall-y people."
Over at the Tourist Info Center in Olde Mistick Village, Greg Borkowski and his 13-year-old son, Matthew, were looking through brochures, hoping, Greg said, "to get a better feel for what's around." Having spent the previous day in Boston, they were headed home to Pearl River, N.Y., near Nyack and the Tappan Zee Bridge.
"It's a Columbus Day, father-and-son trip," Greg Borkowski explained. "Best time of the year to travel. Crowds are down, prices are cheaper. You can't beat this weather."
Mystic, he said, is "a nice weekend trip," about 2 hours, 15 minutes from Pearl River.
Father and son won't soon forget their Boston visit, during which they attended Sunday's NFL game in Foxborough, Mass., which the New England Patriots won in dramatic fashion in the final seconds.
"What did I say?" Greg Borkowski reminded his son. "Halfway through the third quarter, 'We could leave and go to Fenway to catch the Red Sox game.'
"It would have been just to say we went to both in one day," Borkowski said. "But if we did, we would have missed the end of the football game and we might have left the Sox game early and missed the end of that, too."
The senior Borkowski watched the Red Sox' win on TV back in the hotel. His son was asleep by then.
"We could have stayed in Boston today (Monday). The Bruins were playing," he said.
Instead, they visited Mystic on the way home.

Fond du Lac firefighters work to extinguish remaining hotspots in a garage at the home of Fond du Lac City Manager Joe Moore, 799 Country Club Lane, Wednesday night. The fire was contained to the garage attic.
- Filed Under
Lucky timing and the quick response of a neighbor - who happens to be the fire chief - helped minimize fire damage at Fond du Lac City Manager Joe Moore's home Wednesday night.
As Moore entered his garage at 799 Country Club Lane around 9 p.m. he noticed a brown mark on the ceiling and the odor of something burning. After a quick search he summoned the fire department and his next door neighbor Fire Chief Peter O'Leary.
"(O'Leary) was upstairs getting ready to leave for Arizona the next day when he heard the doorbell ring and then someone hollering upstairs at him the same time the fire pager went off," ...

In address to priests, Pope emphasizes joy of the priesthood
Catholic World News - June 23, 2014
Pope Francis told a group of diocesan priests that there is "nothing more beautiful for a man" than being called to be a priest.
The Pope made his remarks in the cathedral of Cassano all'Ionio, a town of 18,000 in the province in the southern Italian region of Calabria. The Pope's remarks followed an address to prisoners in Castrovillari, a helicopter ride to Cassano all'Ionio, and a visit to the sick in a hospital there.
Emphasizing the joy of the priesthood, Pope Francis said that in silent prayer before the tabernacle, a priest "Jesus make us see if we are working as good workers, or if we have become a little like 'employees'; if we are open, generous 'channels,' through which his love, his grace can flow abundantly, or if instead we place ourselves at the center."
The Pope also warned against "pastoral individualism" and called upon priests to choose to take part "in the beauty of fraternity" in the midst of "a subjectivist culture that exalts the 'I' even to the point of idolizing it." Noting that the family is in "crisis," the Pope concluded by calling upon the priests to work with families as well as "for the family as an institution."

Everyday Minerals Sunlight Color Corrector Review & Swatches
I'm really a big fan of Skin Food Salmon Dark Circle Powder. It's one of my HG (holy grail) products for brightening my eyes up and holding my concealer in place for all day wear. I actually recently discovered a product that works just as well but prior to that I tried out Everyday Minerals Sunlight Color Corrector as a reader had mentioned it was even better than Salmon Dark Circle Powder.
Really? Better?! How could this be? I instantly ordered it to see for myself and…
A loose mineral powder for fair to medium skin tones that's yellow tinted and corrects dark under eyes circles or dark spots (such as sun damage) on your face.
Without a doubt this was a great offering as it was a huge jar for $8 that I could easily get right here in the USA rather than dealing with costly airmail shipping to get Skin Food's version from Korea.
However, that's about the extent of the good!
The powder is awfully strange. It has a very scratchy quality and applies and blends rather uncomfortably under my eyes. It's as if it's made up of a mineral powder and some crunchy fine pieces mixed it. Strange texture that feels very grainy to me. I thought it blended awful and accentuated fine lines badly plus I noticed very little in the ways of concealing or brightening up the darkness I have under my eyes.
I love the generous size however they house it in a rather large flat jar which makes for really messy application. This would be ideal if I was buffing the product into my face as the lid offers a large size working area to buff and tap however for my eyes I don't need as much product and I find I'm chasing around a small bit of powder in an overly large lid!
- No one!
- Anyone with fine lines (this seems to bring them out for the worst).
- Those wishing to set concealer (I didn't feel like it blended well enough to offer any real setting power as it began to crease and look badly after application).
- Those wanting a dupe of Skin Food's powder.
Sadly, this was a bust for me. At $8 for such a generous size I was quite excited to try it and hopefully replace my Skin Food version with it but sadly this cannot live up to that product at all.
No likey!
Has anyone tried this before?
Do share!
This review contains a sample product sent for consideration by PR.
Read my full disclosure statement here.
2/3/11 13:46 Phyrra:
I've tried Everyday Minerals before and didn't like their foundation or lip products. I'm not too surprised to hear that other products don't work very well, either.
2/3/11 13:59 Kelly:
Ahh EM. I adore their shadows, their bases are so much gentler than BM's..but I have never had luck with any of their correctors. Every time I've tried one I've just had an opposite effect of what I need.
2/3/11 17:10 Rachel:
I have the old version–smooth texture. It's good for using on my eyelid/upper eye if I am in a hurry and not using shadow (I wear glasses and the skin is darker there). I can no longer use it as a concealer…it did work, but now I am past the age where it works and it collects in lines under my eyes. I officially give up on powdered concealer. The original version of most of EMs face stuff is just better than it is now, imho.
2/3/11 17:54 Grace:
Oh, I love the Skin Food powder too. I have Sunlight, but did not find it worked well under the eyes either. I'm dying to hear what other product that you discovered that you feel works just as good as the Skin Food!! I'd live not to deal with international shipping. I've used some of the HD setting powders, but they don't brighten as well.
2/12/11 18:31 Grace:
Ooohhh…the suspense is killing me. =) I am starting to get "low" (maybe halfway LOL) on my SF powder, but I've had it for over a year, so it's been a great value. Replacing it with an easily accessible version will be awesome, though.
2/3/11 18:39 jac-kie:
hey Muse! =)
everyday minerals was the brand that started me on makeup! & their blush in nick nack was my 1st HG blush colour! i went off them for a while but i recently ordered their pressed foundation in light & was sadly disapointed =( very streaky & did not blend well; but i still like the blush. & i like their brushes as well, they are very cost effective even with the international shipping fee.
i recently got the skinfood salmon dark circle eye powder as well after reading your review on it [i use the salmon undereye concealer as well!] however i can't get it to apply without being cakey =( i have tried with an eyeshadow brush, mini eye kabuki, the puff & even my fingers? is there any technqiue you use? i tried to put as little as possible on but am i supose to put more so it kind of sticks to all the concealer thereby hiding the concealer itself?
ooooh & in my order i got the skinfood lip & cheek creme as well, it's quite pretty [doesn't work well on lips imo], so check it out if you're already doing an order – i got it in the shade apricot, a peachy pink, it's a bit sheer & looks a tiny bit shiny, good if you want the overall 'glowy' look, i don't use it that much though as my HG creme blush is the becca lip & cheek creme in blossom=)
2/3/11 18:51 Wendy:
I used to love this product, but I think the new reformulation is awful, for all their products
You might like Silk Naturals Sleep in a Jar
2/3/11 19:43 Misato-san:
I was happy to see you reviewing a mineral product (I always wonder if you are interested into mineral make up or not… I like it a lot!), too bad it isn't like you hoped at all D:
2/4/11 20:16 Misato-san:
yes there are so many but if you think about it… it's the same for not mineral brands 😀
I like variety and I love having so many colours around 😀
2/3/11 21:45 Cait:
This stuff used to be very good. Then the company totally revamped their products, and they're major crap now. It's too bad, as this was a nice concealer for me, but it wasn't meant to be I guess!
2/3/11 22:52 Annie M:
I don't like that corrector…. the Sunlight Finishing Dust is MUCH MUCH BETTER and I even like it better than the Skin Food one
2/4/11 17:02 annie:
its the one that Chiara also put a link to… U MUST TRY! http://www.everydayminerals.com/store/face/face/face-anti-shine/face-sunlight-finishing-dust.html
2/4/11 0:47 Ashley:
Muse, do try the EM Aussie Perk Me Up concealer! It's great for brightening tired & dull looking eyes
2/7/11 20:56 Liane:
No! Don't! I love EM but Aussie Perk Me Up is not a good way to go. Personally I like their Lavender as a color corrector, but for around my eyes I'm happy with just a good concealer (I use EM Instensive Fair Concealer and ZOMFG it's fantastic. HG Status).
I don't use everything EM, and not absolutely everything they make is good, but they do have great stuff so don't get discouraged!
2/4/11 4:51 Chiara:
My sunlight has a totally different texture! And for me, it works like a charm. I have some yellow undertones and i use sunlight every day under my eyes and on my nose and cheeks to correct redness.
For me, this really works very well.
But the one i have isn't grainy. It's very nice and smooth.
Actualy, the powder you have reminds me of the sunlight finishing dust. because the finishing dust has a totally different texture, more powdery. The corrector is more "creamy"
2/5/11 9:37 Chiara:
I was thinking they might have put the wrong label om the jar.
9/26/11 13:49 Kamagrian:
I was wondering that too! When I read this review, I actually ran off to my dressing table to check out my jar of Sunlight corrector, and it's definitely silky smooth – no graininess at all. I wonder if it was a bad batch or something?
2/4/11 17:16 annie:
I also have that problem with the Skinfood one and caking
2/4/11 23:12 Kathy:
oh no!! who might like it/? NO ONE!!!! that's really awful, thanks for reviewing.
9/26/11 13:50 Kamagrian:
Utoh…I guess that means I'm no one! *SOB* 😉
4/14/11 0:53 annie:
Muse, I still don't see a review on what I suggested from EM since you got the wrong one. Did you get a chance yet?? I'm dying for you to try it and let me know that you love it like i do heheh 😀
4/27/11 17:28 dean:
Woa, so I'm not the only one on earth who's not satisfied with EM's concealers. They are not blendable on my skin. But, with so many ppl made good reviews on EM and kinda worshipped this brand, I felt like landing on the wrong planet 😀
Reading your post makes me feel normal again, muse..thanks a lot for reviewing 😉

Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle Passes Key NASA Milestone
Denver CO (SPX) Jul 07, 2010
The Orion crew exploration vehicle has successfully completed the Phase 1 Safety Review of NASA's Human Rating Requirements for space exploration in low Earth orbit and beyond.
The NASA/Lockheed Martin Orion team earned the approval from NASA's Constellation Safety and Engineering Review Panel (CSERP) upon completion of the review, an essential requirement for the Orion program to move forward to the Critical Design Review and Phase 2 Safety Review.
The safety review process is a rigorous and exhaustive look at the design and operational concepts to assure that all requirements have been adequately met.
System safety requirements address potentially catastrophic failures that could result in loss of crew or loss of mission during launch, ascent to orbit, approach and docking to the International Space Station, re-entry, landing, and recovery operations.
Thoroughly reviewing spacecraft designs and operations for possible causes of such catastrophic failures, and designing appropriate mitigations for them, is a critical part of NASA's human rating program.
"Completing this significant safety review puts Orion well down the road in satisfying the requirements to minimize the nation's gap in human space flight," said Paul Benfield, Lockheed Martin Integrated Reliability and Safety Manager for the Orion Program.
"NASA's current human rating standards include stringent requirements and thorough procedures developed from the best practices of NASA's past 50 years of human spaceflight."
Benfield noted that human rating a vehicle for beyond low Earth orbit (LEO) is particularly challenging given the greater autonomy of such a mission, the extended mission durations, and increased time to return to Earth.
This Phase 1 Safety milestone covers the requirements for Orion missions in LEO as well as sortie missions to the moon. The design enables a six-month on-orbit duration which is vital to assure return capability of the space station crew, as well as support autonomous lunar orbit operations. This long duration design far exceeds the one- to two-week capabilities offered by other potential providers.
"Human rating a spacecraft is not a feature you can just simply add on once the vehicle is designed," explained Benfield.
"It is a process that requires endurance and attention to detail to ensure that safety is driven into every aspect of the vehicle design and operations from the beginning. Optimal safety and reliability is strategically and systematically incorporated into the vehicle from day one, concurrent with critical trade decisions considering vehicle mass and cost."
The Orion crew exploration vehicle is at the peak of its development phase, which has spurred several new technologies and innovations in composites, structures, avionics and thermal protection systems. The spacecraft is on schedule to complete the Critical Design Review in 2011 which will put Orion on the path for flight to low Earth orbit as early as 2013, provided appropriate funding is approved in the near future.

Ben & Jerry's Loves the Gays.
Two new flavors to make your day a little gay-er.
"Equal rights and treatment for all people was a founding principle of Ben & Jerry's when we started the company over 30 years ago," says cofounder Jerry Greenfield.
Ben & Jerry's has been going strong by sharing its support of gay marriage.It took the Chubby Hubby flavor and switched it to Hubby Hubby as an homage to legalizing gay marriage in Vermont, and partnered with Freedom to Marry for a month.The brand wholeheartedly believes in gay marriage, and spends no time hesitating on if others disagree on the topic (and many still do, so the company is not afraid to go against the grain!). And because of B & J's strong convictions, fans of Ben & Jerry's are often die hard fans (and maybe more will marry in their stores like Keith & Andreas).With gay marriage laws changing state by state, Ben & Jerry's has been there along the way to celebrate each milestone.
"Say 'I do' to same sex marriage."
"Social Justice is at the core of our values."

Say goodbye to the Wilsons' barn

Say goodbye to the Wilsons' barn, photo by BearlyWorking.
Eric writes:
Owner Ray Wilson says a man is coming this weekend to start demolition. Ray says the guy offered to pay him for it (the timbers in these old structures can be quite valuable) but he said he would be just glad to have it gone. The foundation is beyond saving and parts of the structure are leaning already, so better to take it down before it becomes a safety issue.

As promised, Kim, Josh and I headed to Bucky's Homestyle Diner in Apple Valley, MN. I had visited this location when it first opened as Soups, Salads and Sandwiches and wasn't all that impressed (see here for my previous review) but since then, the owners have revamped the menu and mission to create a nice little spot that fills a big void in Apple Valley — a local place that serves a diner style menu for VERY reasonable prices. Growing up on the east coast we were routinely at this diner or another all over NY, PA, NJ or CT especially when we were visiting my grandparents on or near Long Island. I have fond memories (that continue to this day) of many of those spots including the Nautilus Diner in Massapequa, NY, the Lexus Diner in Newburgh, NY, and my very long time favorite the Hibernia Diner in Rockaway, NJ. While the decor and setting is decidedly different, the food and prices are very similar and something I miss out here in the Midwest.
Bucky's hours on Sundays are limited with them being open from 7 AM until 3 PM so after waiting forever for Josh to arrive, we finally headed over just before 2 PM. As soon as I walked in I was quite surprised to see the restaurant crowded. There were only a few open tables and another group walked in soon after we sat down. It was great to see so many people choosing this little local place over McDonalds next door.
We were immediately greeted by Mishelle, who has commented on the website before, and she handed us our menus and took our drink order. We all chose to go with water and looked over the menu although Josh and I pretty much knew what we were going to order as far back as last weekend. Kim, although a burger fan, decided to go with a Reuben and Josh and I chose the famous "Bucky Burger". While we waited, I noticed that the other tables were eating various items that were loaded with large portions and what seemed to be home cooking. Plenty of club-style sandwiches and burgers and everyone seemed to be enjoying their meal, nice.
In a matter of what seemed like only a few short minutes our orders were out and on our table. The Bucky Burger, which according to the menu, is a third of a pound of beef grilled and topped with bacon, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickles and BBQ sauce which is priced (perfectly IMHO) at $6.95. Josh isn't a fan of anything that you don't have to kill first so he asked for no veggies and a side of mayo. I ordered mine with coleslaw and Josh chose pickles and chips. After the requisite picture taking, I took a bite and found it not only to be cooked as well as a burger in Minnesota is legally permitted to be but to also be damn tasty as well. I'm not a burger fanatic like MSPD is, but that's why I brought Josh along. He believes that J. Grundy's Rueb 'n Stein in Northfield, MN has the best burgers around. I asked him what he thought and he said it was one excellent burger for sure. The only comment he had was that The Rueb's burgers come on a toasted and lightly buttered bun that really makes it. While I found no real fault in Bucky's choice of bread, Josh believed it would be pretty much perfect with that small change. I'm a picky coleslaw eater and while it was good, I still prefer my father's soupy, nasty homemade mess probably just because of the comfort food factor alone. While their rendition was certainly decent, I will be going with an alternative side next time we are in. If you happen to try their coleslaw, write up what you think below!
Kim's Rueben came out and was pretty big. The bread looked gorgeous and it was not falling apart due to over-saturation of dressing and sauerkraut. I asked if I could sneak a bite and was only permitted if I agreed to allow Kim a bite of mine (boo!) I liked the little bit I tasted and while it was definitely something I'd eat again, there are so many other choices to go with that I'll probably be going with something completely different on our next visit (which will probably be for breakfast being that Kim saw the biscuits and gravy and almost jumped out of the car with excitement). Kim really enjoyed her sandwich but liked the burger so much that she said she'd probably get one of those next time. She's partial to mushroom/swiss so I wouldn't be surprised if that's what she ordered the next go around.
They had a couple of specials listed on the chalk board which as of today were:
1. Monday: Buy one soup get one free
2. Tuesday: Kids eat for $2
3. Saturday: Skillet breakfast (bacon, ham, pepper, onion and hash browns with choice of eggs and toast) for $6.45
4. Saturday and Sunday breakfast served all day (maybe I won't have to go for breakfast next time after all!)
Now, as I mentioned above we *will* be returning to Bucky's again in the future if not for the excellent burgers, for breakfast or one of their other items instead. The menu prices seem to average (no math involved) around $6.25 with the most expensive item being the $10.95 ribeye steak with choice of potato and vegetable. The burgers are all priced at or under $6.95 and sandwiches are seemingly all at or around $5.95. You can check out their menus, on their website, here.
MSPD, check out the burger and let us know what you think. Since I'm in no position to award anyone with the "South Metro's Best Burger" award I would like to see what you think of the Bucky Burger. In my limited experience, I would definitely give recommend this for the #1 spot but I'll wait for your "expert opinion" :)
I give this place two thumbs up and will admit that my first review does not do Bucky's Homestyle Diner any justice now that the menu has changed from when they first opened. Not only do I think that I will be going back, I'm sure it will become one of our regular spots. Bucky's comes highly recommended by me, very highly!

Former champion Rafael Nadal has survived an early scare to kick off his bid for a third Wimbledon title with a 7-6 (7/0) 6-2 6-3 victory over Brazil's Thomaz Bellucci in the first round.
Nadal, the winner in 2008 and 2010, appeared to be suffering a hangover from his record-breaking seventh French Open triumph two weeks ago as he allowed world number 80 Bellucci to race into a 4-0 lead in the first set on Centre Court on Tuesday.
But the second seeded Spaniard, who lost in the final to Novak Djokovic last year, quickly regained his composure to canter through to the second round.
"It's always tough to make the change from clay to grass, especially when over the last couple of months I played almost every match on tour. Physically you start having some troubles," Nadal said.
"He started well, with some good serves, and after that I had more mistakes than usual and I was very lucky to come back from 4-0.
"But I'm very happy to be back on probably the best court in the world and winning in three sets is good for me. Every time I have the chance to play here I try to enjoy it."
Winning the opening set in a tie-break seemed to break Bellucci's resolve and, with normal service restored, Nadal powered through the second set in typically aggressive fashion.
Although Nadal is rightly regarded as the king of clay after his remarkable achievements at Roland Garros, the 11-time Grand Slam winner is fast becoming equally dominant on grass.
He has reached the final on his last five appearances at the All England Club and there was an inevitability about the way he battered his fellow left-hander into submission.
The 26-year-old, bidding to equal Bjorn Borg's feat of winning the French Open and Wimbledon back to back on three occasions, will face Ivan Dodig or Lukas Rosol for a place in the last 32.

Besides giving your home an aesthetically attractive look, wood
siding also protects your home from water, wind, and insect
damage. Consequently when you discover a damaged piece of wood
siding, it is imperative that you fix it, and fix it right away.
Wood siding can become damaged over time due to weathering or from
the occasional baseball hitting it. Pine siding has the tendency
to curl and split due simply weather reasons. Cedar siding can
also occasionally split.
Photo By: Mark
Patching wood siding is fairly easy to do, as long as you have the
right tools and work carefully during the removal of the damaged piece.
To patch a damaged wood siding clapboard you need to begin by
carefully cutting the damaged clapboard at a location that is beyond the damage,
and that lines up over an existing stud wall. Mark the location with a pencil
and cut the damaged clapboard with a carpenter's knife several times, making
several down strokes.
Once you have scored/cut the damaged wood siding clapboard with the knife, use a
pry bar and hammer to work the nails loose on the good clapboard
sitting just above the damaged one.
Remove the loosened nails after you work them up a little with your
pry bar.
Next, work the pry bar underneath the bottom section of the damaged
clapboard, taking care not to damage the lower clapboard.
Once you have created a small space underneath the damaged
clapboard, use a sawzall to cut the nails on the backside of the
After cutting the nails you should be able to remove the old
damaged wood siding clapboard with your hands.
Once you have removed the old clapboard make sure there is nothing
behind the upper clapboard, as you will be sliding a new
clapboard up underneath it.
Measure and cut a piece of new wood siding for the patch. Then slide it up
underneath the clapboard that sits just above the area you are
working. Note you should add a bead of exterior caulk on the
ends of the existing clapboards first.
Once the newly patched wood siding clapboard is in place, secure it
with galvanized nails and your done.
Just add a coat or two of paint or stain and your exterior siding
should look as good as new.

CANTON Another bad start and poor play on special teams once again proved to be critical for the St. Lawrence University hockey team.
Brown University scored the first four goals and freshman goalie Tyler Steel made 34 saves en route to a 5-3 win over the Saints on Friday night at Appleton Arena, handing St. Lawrence its sixth consecutive loss.
Matt Lorito scored a goal and assisted on two others all in the first period and Dennis Robertson scored twice on the power play to propel the Bears (7-6-3, 4-4-1), who extended their unbeaten streak to six games (4-0-2).
You just cant give them chances like that, St. Lawrence senior goalie Matt Weninger said. We still havent learned our lessons.
Not only have the reeling Saints (8-11-2, 2-5-2) not won a game in more than a month and half, they also were dealt their ninth setback in their past 11 games.
We lost because we got in a hole early mostly due to special teams, said St. Lawrence coach Greg Carvel, whose team has gone scoreless in each of their past three opening periods. But we didnt fold up our tents we played hard and pushed right until the end.
Keeping the puck out of its own net was once again the glaring issue for St. Lawrence, which has allowed five or more goals on six occasions in the recent skid.
It was another tough first period, St. Lawrence captain Kyle Essery said. The last 40 minutes, we played hard and I think we played better than we did. But being down 3-0 in the first period is tough to come back from.
After Lorito struck for a short-handed goal 8 minutes, 39 seconds into the game and Mark Naclerio followed with a goal, Robertson followed with his back-to-back man-advantage goals, first late in the opening period and then in the second.
The bottom line is our penalty kill allowed three goals and they scored short-handed, Carvel said. Our penalty kill is not very good right now.
Carvel was encouraged by his teams play in the final 40 minutes as the Saints played just their second game in only 35 days.
We definitely played better after the first period, Weninger said. ... But we cant give up goals like that in the first period and they led 4-0 halfway through the game. When you do that your chances of winning are slim and none.
Robertson was later ejected from the game and received a major penalty and game misconduct for head-butting St. Lawrences Jeremy Wick. As a result, Browns captain will have to sit out tonights game at No. 14 Clarkson.
We outworked them early and then it just went south quick, Brown coach Brendan Whittet said. I hope the boys mature in their approach to things and, in a 60-minute game, we just got away from what makes us successful. And credit them they got back to their game and were playing hard and with tenacity.
Lorito had a hand in all three goals in the first period for Brown as he opened the scoring with a short-handed, unassisted goal. Lorito then set up the next goal as Mark Naclerio lifted a shot over Weninger.
With 58.9 seconds left in the period, Robertson took a cross-ice pass from Nick Lappin and scored into the wide-open left side of the net for a power-play goal.
Browns run continued into the second as after Steel made a glove save on Drew Smolcynskis short-handed bid, Robertson scored on the ensuing rush for a power-play goal and a 4-0 Bears lead at 8:05.
After the Saints finally broke through on Patrick Dohertys rebound goal at 10:41, Brown led 5-1 on the power play as Lappin knocked in a rebound at 15:53.
Wick, who assisted on Dohertys goal, converted while on the power play at 17:20 to pull St. Lawrence within 5-2.
Later, the Saints were unable to convert on a pair of power plays in the third period, managing only one shot on goal during a 5-on-3 man advantage spanning 1:25.
n NOTES: The Saints are now 3-6 at home and 2-6 when trailing after the first period. ... With his assist in the third period, Greg Carey extended his point streak to 16 games. ... St. Lawrence will host reigning national champion Yale at 7 tonight.

Current Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler and former
Kentucky Secretary Trey Grayson (both RNLA members and speakers at the 2011
National Election Law Seminar) were quoted in a recent NPR piece.
The NPR article, entitled "Secretaries
of State at Center of Election Battles," only mentions three Republican
Secretaries of State (from Colorado, Florida and Kentucky). However, chief state elections officials, no
matter what party they may belong to, are charged with ensuring that elections
are open, fair and honest. Voter ID is
one method to pursue those goals by preventing vote fraud in elections.
Besides Gessler in Colorado, there are other Secretaries of
State who support voter ID. Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp recognizes the need
for voter ID in states like his own, which has had a photo ID law for
years. According to the Associated Press,
Kemp believes
"stricter identification requirements enacted by Georgia and other states are
needed to deal with attempts to commit voter fraud." In Tennessee, Secretary of State Tre Hargett
is committed to fairly applying the new state voter ID law and does not believe
voter ID discourages turnout saying,
"I think that nothing could disenfranchise an eligible voter more than finding
out that ineligible voters are voting." Then,
there's Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz who supported a new law in his
state and said
last August, "You have to show an ID before you get on an airplane, you have to
show an ID before you open a checking account, and if you like beer you have to
show ID before you buy a beer so why not when you vote?"
But voter ID is not supported only by Secretaries of State
who are Republicans. Rhode Island
Secretary of State A. Ralph Mollis, a Democrat, said, "The perception that
identity theft could occur at the polls weakens the public's faith in the
fairness of our elections. Voting should be at least as secure as everyday
tasks like renting a car or getting a library card that routinely require ID.
Photo ID ensures that poll workers can match a face to the name that voters
give them when they obtain their ballots at the polls. The simple act of asking
for ID protects the rights of every voter."
Then there's New Hampshire Secretary of State William Gardner, also a
Democrat, who favors
photo identification requirements, because, as he explains, "Someone's going to
be less likely to commit voter fraud."
Voter ID is a common-sense election reform; that's why so
many state legislatures considered it last year and so many Secretaries of
State support it.
