Board choice
Hello. I too am fairly new at snowboarding. I am 5' 2" and 105 lbs. I found that I needed a light weight and forgiving board for learning. I tried two camber boards last year.... An M3 and a Flow Venus... The M3 was just not for me no pop and very hard to control, the Flow Venus was definitely better but still just didn't seem as responsive to me... Now that may be the fact that I'm still in the learning stages as well. This year I bought a NS Infinity and I absolutely love it first day out I was linking turns better than I ever have before. I have only been out three times so far this year but every time my riding is improving and with their rocker camber technology it makes for better edge control in my opinion. Some people prefer rocker some camber for learning by I sure benefited from the combined rocker camber. I know their boards are little pricey but they are worth the money in my opinion. I live in northern Wisconsin and rely on mostly man made snow and groomer trails. I'm not a park girl but the Infinity has pop like a park board. I went with a 142 cm just because of my weight and short height. To me light and short makes for easier turns and control. This is just my opinion from one newbie to another all I can say is at 33 years old I love to play like a kid on my board and will never give it up took me 3 years of board trying and buying but I found my love for sure. Burton to makes a good board heck they all do the most important thing in my opinion is to go light and short and if you can try to demo a camber board, rocker board, and then a combo rocker camber board to see the difference. Maybe a veteran rider has a different opinion or idea but just keep in mind their are a lot of facts to consider and if you plan on sticking it out thru the learning and continuing on you might want a board that will grow with you. Some boards say intermediate level but they cater to the beginner and also allow you to grow without having to upgrade to a new board. Hope this helps some! -Loving my board that makes me feel like a kid again lol!

A Surprise! And a Gift!

 Just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year from FilliQuist! Many new things are coming out from the studio. A new bed, a candle holder specifically for burning stubs of candles, a mobile (the kind that hangs overhead), a new table (or two!), and some new lighting.

 Also I would like to introduce my first born child, Ellis Muir Filliquist! Born in October, he has been keeping my wife and I very busy!

 And finally a little gift! For those times you need some white noise, the sounds of nature, or something to distract you from the hectic world around you, check out Noisli.com! You can use the app right form the home page or download it from the Apple store. Enjoy!

 When collecting windows for a greenhouse project to be completed next summer I found these cabinets neglected in a barn. They had 15+ years of dirt and dust on them and, unfortunately, their little legs and feet were beginning to melt into the mud and needed to be amputated.
 After a thorough cleaning and a little surgery, the two mid century style boxes were fitted with a shared prosthetic...

 A little something out of the shop. It comes from a design that a friend found, apparently it had already been purchased and he wanted it. So a replication was in order.
 The frame is made of solid steel 3/4 inch (19mm) square rod. The top is butcher block oak that has been fumed and then finished with an antique recipe that I have been dying to try for years. It came out amazing! The middle shelf is zinc coated sheet metal that has been given a nice black patina. All of the metal is waxed to seal it from any corrosion and protect the steel for many years.
 There are more detailed pictures (click on to magnify) after the jump:

Anything!! Of all the BS remarks that I can't even remember there was one that really got under my skin. They said, "you need to tell a story...." Whhhaaaaatttt? So now that I design, manage, produce, sell, and finance my little world now I have to become a what? A storyteller? Like J.R. Tolkin? David Sedaris? Rudyard Kipling? What are storytellers known for designing that we are sitting on, talking/texting on, playing, or otherwise using today?
Nothing. That's what.

Rant over.

 Then I saw this video and realized I wasn't so alone in the world. I am so happy, I am going back to designing!

Dear Blog,
 I never thought that I would be writing a letter to you; I suppose, though, that it has come to this. I just finished that last of the Birch Beer and after much thinking there are some conclusions that I have come to.

First- I am bored with design. Now this is a loaded statement. By "design" I mean the design world as a whole. Some new chair being released! so what.... There is a new app that will help you design your whole garden and even tells you where to put the plants! Amazing!!! big whoop... Nearly every aspect of the design world is seems to come across as totally and completely hollow, fake, and over hyped.

Second- Reflecting on the FilliQuist portfolio I am not too impressed right now. I was forced to look at my work as the deadline for the Greenhouse application for the Stockholm Furniture and Light Fair approaches. Perusing things that I had thought were great once now seems a little blah. I have better and you will see them little Blog- I promise.

Third- Those better ideas that I have... I will make them a reality and you (Blog) and you (readers) will see them. These are not ideas that are mediocre, but ideas that I hope will truly inspire and show what I have hoped for FilliQuist to present all these years past and continue to show well into the future.

Finally- My dear little blog, I no longer will be sharing mostly FilliQuist information, products and achievements. The world will be allowed to make it's impression upon your pages and things that shape the FilliQuist world shall be exposed here upon you.

Ever your humble servant,
 Skip Filliquist

 After visiting Formex and then the Stockholm Furniture Fair FilliQuist has been working mostly on a strategy for entering the main stream market. As a result the work completed looks more like paperwork, notes, and networking than anything that is normally posted here. So here is a beer.
 The crafting has not stopped completely though. I had enough time to make a batch of Birch Beer! All bottled and clarified it will be ready in time for midsummer. A nice light beer with a 7% kick! Can't wait!
 Things will begin moving in the shop very soon. First there is a visit to see friends and family and get some inspiration in the U.S.A. After that I will be constructing a sawmill, reorganizing the current shop, and building a bit of outdoor workspace.

 How is this for instant gratification? We bought this Handöl wood stove in bad condition and I spent some time (quite a bit actually) cleaning, polishing, welding, resealing, and reassembling this little classic. It is made of a cast iron frame that holds together many pieces of soapstone and cast iron ports (ash clean out, stoking door, and exhaust port out the back of the stove).

 Here is the latest piece out of the studio. The top is most plainly a solid slab of European White Oak that has been resting in a barn for many years. To prevent the checking (or splits) from growing any bigger three bow ties have been added dressing this little gent nicely.

 Being fortunate enough to work with large slabs of wood it is difficult to mount the top on suitable legs. Search just a little and one will find a very eclectic mix of mostly awkward bases under a gorgeous monolith of wood. Work is still being done on a variety of supports that are appropriate and closer to the perfection that will rest above.

 It has been just over a year since Chandelier No. 5 was introduced so for it's first anniversary I thought a I would do a version with more shine and polish. So with gloss black paint and copper fittings I present Chandelier no. 5.1!

 Fresh off the prototype bench- here is a light design that I have been thinking about for a while. I needed something that could bridge the gap between a pendant and a bedside light that was compact but still gave enough light to read by- you know- so as to not upset my optometrist....

 Each little window can accept a piece of wood or steel that reflects light as well as let light through holes for a pattern on the wall. As pictured, the wood veneer used as a shade adds a natural element to the design. The light can be outfitted with any type of plug and FilliQuist is working on making different panels (fabric, frosted glass, patterned glass, woven shade panel, metal screen, etc.) that can pop in or out easily.

 We left our tall bookcases back in the US which means we are still sort of "moving in". Well we have now finally put our books away. This bookcase is just over 3 feet tall or for us folks in the metric part of the world an even meter. And they are also about 8 feet long or 2.5 meter. Now- I keep saying "they" since I made two thinking that we had all these books and stuff to organize. Well turns out that these cases hold much more than I could imagine since just one case absorbed all of our stuff with room to spare! Now what to do with the extra one?....Hmmmm? Ideas? anyone? Bueller? (movie reference there)

 It is the details that can bring a home together and keep you sane. In this case the phones and modem were sitting on the chair in the lower left corner of the picture and it drove me nuts! Now they all have a proper place. Features include a forged hanger for a purse and a lower shelf that is great for loose mail and all those little things (but not too little) like sunglasses, car keys, a plant, a bottle of wine, firewood, car parts, Honey Badger repellent- or whatever else one needs as they head out the door!

 Sometimes finding the perfect table can be so very very daunting. In this case I had clients that had found the perfect table from Restoration Hardware (RH) where the round table was too small and not quite the right finish. You can see the RH listing here (for now at least). Ultimately they needed the same table, only a little more ....perfect? The table from RH is built with Pine. They said that this wouldn't really work for them so they asked for other woods. In the end there were three types that went into the table- Oak and Poplar for the top and Pine for the pedestal and feet. The pedestal part of the table is carved from a single piece of wood with the legs being attached separately. Perhaps the best for the client was that I was able to use locally sourced wood from a nearby farm in Washington state. Just remember- if you want it you can get it!

 Our walls have been blank too long. Taking what we already have I hung our Greenland paddles that I made a couple of years ago with our canoe paddles and a spare (who doesn't have one of these?) propeller. I love the idea that we have everything we need to decorate and make our house our own we just need to take the time to figure out the best way to present it.

Enjoy!theskiphttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065358671074232019.post-82817258834659823442013-05-06T02:16:00.001-07:002014-06-21T04:10:54.170-07:00Border Dispute We have dogs. Our dogs like to lay in cool soft spots. Our dogs like to hangout near us when we work. When we work in the garden this tends to be the flower beds and that is not good. What to do?
Quick cheap fencing made in China. Nope. We didn't even have to leave the house to solve this one!

 With all of the banches and trees that have been cut back we chose to weave planter borders. It keeps the dogs seperate from the flowers and saves us a trip to the store and looks better than we could hope for.

 We are not vain people but I have noticed that since moving to Sweden we have appear to lack any vanity as the details of our personal grooming have been seriously neglected. From unkempt heads of hair to a bundle of ear hair, an unevenly plucked eyebrow, and even perhaps miscolored cosmetics. But it is not for lack of want. It was for lack of a lit mirror. Well that has been remedied now.

 Here is a new chandelier by Filliquist. Since moving to Sweden I have realized how important it is with proper illumination as the sun is now hiding in the Southern Hemisphere.

You cannot go wrong with combining candles with lights! I bet it would look good over your dining room table.

If you are up to date with the design world then you will be thrilled at the news that is generated by Pantone and their annual color choice of the year. This year is Emerald! How wonderful. Or as Craig Nakano of the L.A. Times puts it, "It's Green."
 I too was expecting something a bit more, I don't know, just not green. I was also hoping fpr something that would work with last years color. I don't think it is very fair for Pantone to be jumping all over the color spectrum from one year to the next. It makes it very difficult to match last years color of the year with this years color of the year. Sorry but Tangarine Tango does not work so well with Emerald. So again like last year I am putting forth my suggestion for the color of the year. After last years choice of Bergbana Blue, also known as Pantone's 3025 EC, I am crossing the color wheel and lightening the color 30 points (in Photoshop) to get .......

 Pantone 5005 EC.

 I don't know what to call this color, and neither does Pantone apparently. So I am open to suggestions and comments. The strong blue from last year will be easily matched by this color and I have started to see this and darker more saturated versions of this around and it seems to work well with the times. Since the seasons seem to have been particularily dark and damp lately this should lighten the mood.

 With that in mind I can almost see the reason for Pantone's choice this year's color but it just doesn't work with the choices from the past. So here's to a bright and sunny spring where all colors will be saturated by beautiful pure sunlight and this year's FilliQuist Color Choice of (what should it be called?) hanging from windows, accenting tables and maybe even covering a bit of sun kissed skin.

 In the middle of the seach for parts and supplies for a dining table lamp I came across this gem.... a Flos Model 2097-30 chandelier! Very excited to find the lamp unassembled in its original box I asked the attendant at the recycling center (yes a recycling center!!) how much for this light here, he looks at it shugs and says 150 SEK or about $25! The Flos 2097 retails for around 12,000 SEK which is about $1800 USD. Recycling centers, flea markets and thrift stores are always a great resource. Just remember it pays to recycle!

Things are changing have changed! I won't soften the blow so here it is -the tearing off of the Band-Aid from a really hairy arm- FilliQuist is now in Sweden!
How about that!
 Once FilliQuist found out that it was moving I stopped posting (since work more or less stopped in the shop) and we began preparing for our move. With much work and a significant amount of streamlining we readied for the move. Pretty much all tools that ran on 120V electricity found new "forever homes" and the rest are on a boat in the Baltic headed to port as I type. Yea! Can't wait to get all of our goodies!!
 Since it has been about three months since the last post I figure that it is time to get back to work on the blog and in the shop.
 Since being here I have already made/put together a table, scrounged up some old school chairs, and am working on some benches for the time being....

 Oh and taking wallpaper off of our bedroom walls, patching holes, stacking firewood, clearing saplings and dead trees in the yard, meeting the neighbors.....well keeping busy, anyway.
 I will keep you informed of all the new changes...I promise. And there will be some great new content as FilliQuist gets used to a new country and continent.
 So for now...

They take up little operating room since they don't need to swing open. They don't get blown open, or slam shut. Best of all they can bring a touch of character to any room.

 With guests staying with us we have had to devise ways of creating privacy in an office/guest room. A dressing screen kind of worked(not really) but was awkward to use as a door. A curtain was just too flimsy and offers no audio interference. In other words, guests make noise, like snoring and the sort. It is also nice to be able to keep the cats and their curiosity out of the room and off the guests. So the installation of a solid door was in order.

An aerial view of the mangled Seaside Heights boardwalk after Hurricane Sandy struck. / PETER ACKERMAN/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER
Josephine Defeis achieved a lifelong goal 12 years ago, when she bought a condominium in Seaside Heights and moved full-time to a place she routinely visited with her grandmother when she was a child.
A social worker by training, Defeis has always been drawn to the sea for reasons that no one has ever scientifically explained. The peace of the ocean? The energy of the crowds? The escape?
It was my dream, and I loved the boardwalk, said Defeis, 58. You know when you get the winter blues, you sit on the boardwalk, and its so quiet and so meaningful.
Demolished by superstorm Sandy, the Shores tourism industry the beaches, the amusement parks, the restaurants, the bed & breakfasts, the attractions that make the Shore the Shore is confronted with what is sure to be a long and expensive recovery.
With it comes an emotional seesaw. On one end is the fist-clenched Jersey attitude that is determined to rebuild so that residents and visitors can flock here to enjoy carefree days once again. On the other is stone-cold science that says the Shore, after decades of escaping hurricanes, has confronted two of them in two years and now must concede that the ocean is more powerful than humans.
Were going to rebuild, U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J., said Thursday after visiting his district, which includes badly damaged towns along the Bayshore and down the coast to Belmar. Were going to get the funding and were going to rebuild. I dont want anyone to think otherwise. Things are going to be back where they were, if not better. I have a very positive attitude about whats happening. This is going to be as good, if not better.
The Shore is a combination of the sacred and profane, where at 11 a.m. you can hear the laughs and yelps of children playing at the beach and at 11 p.m. you can find yourself in the middle of a drunken brawl.
For the economy, it represents near perfection. The tourism industry generated $37 billion statewide in 2011, including $5.9 billion in Monmouth and Ocean counties, according to Tourism Economics in Wayne, Pa.
The figures for last summer havent been tallied, but business owners said it was the most promising year since before the recession hit in 2008. And with the economy picking up at least a little, 2013 was looking bright.
Sandy, however, placed everything on hold, and images taken this week laid it all out. Beach clubs in Sea Bright are washed away. The boardwalk in Belmar is uprooted. The Great Auditorium in Ocean Grove is missing part of its roof. Summer homes in ritzy Mantoloking arent there. The Star Jet Roller Coaster at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights is mangled in the surf.
Tourism officials said for now they are in survival mode. Toby Wolf, a spokeswoman for Jenkinsons Boardwalk in Point Pleasant Beach and Casino Pier, spent much of her time last week searching for help to keep the power going at Jenkinsons Aquarium, which houses some 1,800 animals.
By Friday, a generator arrived and the crisis had been averted. For the few minutes that Wolf could think about what Sandy meant for next summer, she sounded surprisingly hopeful. Many of the buildings at least were still standing.
From looking at that footage (Wednesday) night, I came up (Thursday) morning and it was like a ton of weight had been lifted off my shoulder, she said. Lucky doesnt even begin to cover it as far as our property goes.
Much of the rebuilding, however, is beyond business owners control. John Camera, the administrator of Seaside Heights, said Friday that for all of the devastation, the borough at first glance looked like it could be back on its feet by summertime. But he still didnt know the full extent of the damage.
Asked if Seaside Heights could recover by the next season, he said: I would not rule that out, but I would not say well be open for sure.
Its the infrastructure concerns, he said. We can see whats on the surface, but if thats all we had to deal with wed be ready to go. The infrastructure concerns could delay us.
Everyone knows the Shore can rebuild. The bigger question is, should it? These once-in-a-century storms seem to be happening with frequency.
Pallone noted that the dunes that were designed to protect towns along the beach and bays were wiped clean. And scientists who long have warned about the perils of building so densely along the ocean have more recently raised new concerns: New Jersey is one of the eastern states seeing the sea level rise faster than anywhere.
Sandy might have caused as much as $50 billion in damages for the entire area, said Scott Gabriel Knowles, associate professor at Drexel Universitys Department of History and Politics in Philadelphia.
One bright spot for the Shore: The storm happened in October, when the tourism season has ended, so theres time to recover, he said.
The reality is, this happens when you live down by the water, said Robert Hilton, executive director of the Jersey Shore Convention & Visitors Bureau, a trade group that represents Monmouth and Ocean County business owners. Theres enough time to be able to rebuild. Without me going and actually looking at Seaside and Point Pleasant, its kind of hard for me to tell you. Its premature to say. But my guess is well rebuild.
It had been four days since Sandy blew through the Shore and Defeis on Friday morning still hadnt seen the fate of her condominium.
Defeis went back and forth on the issue. She said she wants the Shore to be like it once was. Maybe new buildings could better withstand the rising tides and ferocious wind. But nothing is 100 percent risk free.
It is a weighty issue, but for a brief moment, Defeis took a break. She thought about the annual bus trip she took to the Shore with her grandmother. They went to the boardwalk, rode the rides, ate sausages with peppers. She could never wait until it was time to return.
Then she did, moving there in 2000. And even as the prospects for her home looked bleaker and bleaker, she said this: Its been wonderful. Ive never regretted living at the Shore.

Automatic Results
CMI finds more than efficiency improves after renovating its spinning facility.
Automatic Results CMI finds more than efficiency improves after renovating its spinning facility. When you have a facility that is more than 100 years old, there are sure to be design issues that make it difficult to produce material at the highest efficiency possible. This was the issue that CMI Industries Inc., Columbia, S.C., had to deal with at its 103-year-old Robert M. Vance manufacturing complex in Clinton, S.C. In a time when automation and efficiency are required in order to maintain a competitive advantage in a tight textile market, CMI had its spinning facility in several separate areas of its complex. To improve its competitiveness, the company determined that relocating and automating its spinning division was essential for its success. In the summer of 1998, CMI began a $13 million renovation of the spinning facility at its Vance complex. This division produces 100-percent cotton and cotton/polyester blend yarns for in-house use and for outside distribution.

Full-scale cleanup of the Fox River will take place this summer after all, under a federal judges order that NCR must remove a minimum of 660,000 cubic yards of sediment.
U.S. District Judge William Griesbach of Green Bay ruled Friday that the harm caused by toxic PCBs in the river cannot reasonably be divided among all of the paper companies likely responsible for discharging them.
NCR shall ensure the continuation of full-scale sediment remediation work through at least November 9, 2012, Griesbach wrote in his order.
That means three or more dredges will be used simultaneously 24 hours a day, five days per week except on holiday-shortened weeks, Griesbach ordered.
Work that halted at the end of dredging season last fall was to have started this month, but Appleton Papers, which held the majority share of the company doing the actual dredging, ordered a work stoppage as an effort to pressure the government into making other responsible paper companies pay for cleanup.
Appleton Papers and NCR were among 14 companies tagged by the government as being potentially responsible for cleaning up polychlorinated biphenyls from the river. Appleton Papers and NCR formed a partnership that commenced cleanup as ordered, and Appleton Papers had controlling interest in that partnership.
Following the work stoppage, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sought a court order to make the cleanup resume, but the court instead accepted Appleton Papers argument that it couldnt reasonably be held responsible for PCB discharge at all.
The EPA shifted its legal argument entirely to NCR, and on Friday, Griesbach accepted that argument.
Appleton Papers is no longer federally liable, but it remains contractually responsible for 60 percent of NCRs costs. That means even though Appleton Papers may resign from its cleanup partnership with NCR, it will continue to pay 60 percent of the cleanup costs.
NCR will still be able to pursue contributions from other paper companies along the river, if it is determined to have paid more than its fair share, Griesbach said. Potential harm to the public from halting or slowing the cleanup would outweigh potential harm to NCR, Griesbach said.
If the river is dredged and capped sooner rather than later, fewer toxic PCBs wil enter another body of water, Griesbach ruled. It is difficult to conclude that any delay does not create irreparable harm.

Catherine, I am very pleased that our discussion on this particular memorial has reached a surviving relative and that you have gained some comfort from finding out details of the crash. A side effect that adds a personal and poignant touch.
Thank You to all involved in finding out the information about the Lancaster crash 8th april 1945. Also to those who have cleaned up the plaque. Gerald Gore was my Fathers uncle
and we have only just found out the details of the crash this year after research on the internet. Sadly Geralds sister died last year and only had sketchy details of the crash. My Father has happy memories of his young
uncle and can remember wearing his flying helmet as a boy. As a family we thank you for keeping such detailed information thus allowing us some closure. We will remember them.
Catherine, I am very pleased that our discussion on this particular memorial has reached a surviving relative and that you have gained some comfort from finding out details of the crash. A side effect that adds a personal and poignant touch.
Here's another account of what was observed on the day of the crash: http://www.wartimeleicestershire.com...r_files/29.htm
Terence Cartwright was the chap who was responsible for the plaque. It was installed in 1996.
My father witnessed the crash while on a bike ride with a friend. He would often recount what he saw whenever he drove by the bus stop looking down towards the garden center from the A47 (where he stood and watched the it all take place). The whole experience left him rather traumatized. A very sad loss for all the families of the aircrew, especially so, being so close to the end of the war.
At least he talked about it which appears to be the best way of dealing with the trauma of witnessing. I only found out after my Mum died that her epilepsy was thought to have started after a bomb hit Woolwich Arsenal where she was working in the pay department. She was okay but again she was a witness.
I asked my father to write down what he remembered of the Lancaster crash in Thurnby, just before he died a couple of years later. I'm so glad that I did.
I ended up loading up his story online. http://www.wartimeleicestershire.com...ir_files/2.htm
Wow!! What a story!!!! Thanks for sharing it with us Diatu. The title 'Sunshine To Sadness' couldn't have been more apt sadly.
I used to live in Thurnby Lodge when I was a kid in the 80's not too far from that crash site so I've got a particular interest in it. It really was tragic reading about the crash & I was fascinated with the references to the airfield, Shady Lane (& the POW camp), Evington etc as they where places me & my mates used to ride our bikes to albeit in much less dramatic times obviously.

Hi All
I am not sure if the users who began this post still visit the site or if this thread is still live. But this is worth a go.
My grandfathers brother unfortunately lost his life in this crash - Thomas "Tanky" Neale (Air Bomber aged 22).
My grandfather (Francis Neale) is 86 and I would think he would really appreciate any more information/news clippings on the crash. The family does have the book written by Terrence Cartwright along with flight logs, news paper clippings and some other extracts. Does anyone have a clear photo of the memorial that I could possibly be sent?
My great grandmother was presented with a book from a local Birmingham activity club which included a letter of condolence along with number of extracts from war publication produced during the war, which my grandfather still has to this day
Yes, this thread is very much still alive especially when we get a fascinating posts like yours above so it's great to hear from you. I'll be more than happy to send you all the photographs I've taken of the Plaque. I can email them to you if you would like? or send them to you in a Private Message on here.
The Leicestershire Aviation website may be of use for you. It's ran by a lovely guy called John Collier who has masses of Leicester & Leicestershire aviation related material in his archives. I must admit I haven't spoken to John for a while & he wasn't in the best of health last time I did speak to him but he'll certainly be more than happy to help.

After long wait, Eudora Aquatic Center fully functional
June 19, 2010
For the first time since its opening three years ago, the entire pool at the Eudora's Aquatic Center is fully functional and meets safety standards.
The Lazy River and water slide were closed last year because a drain was installed incorrectly when the pool was opened in the summer of 2007. The grates that cover the pool's drains didn't meet federal specifications, which led to a $3,500 fix for the city.
"We had to go in and put vortexes in our pipes, we had to follow the grates. You had to be at least 3 feet apart on your grate system and the slide, and the Lazy River didn't meet those specifications," said Tammy Hodges, the Parks and Recreation director in Eudora.
The reopening of the pool features has drawn increased crowds to the pool this year.
"It's much better," said Julie Hammes, who brings her 2-year-old daughter to the pool daily. "She's got more things to do with the slide. We've got the little umbrella pouring on her; she loves all of that."
Eudora's Aquatic Center is open from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. daily.

An unreliable failure detector is an important abstraction to support the implementation of fault-tolerant protocols on distributed asynchronous systems. Several classes of failure detectors, with varying semantics, have been proposed. The class of perfect failure detectors provides the strongest semantics. In this paper we present the design and implementation of a failure detection service with perfect semantics. The service is implemented at the operating system level by adding extra system calls to a standard Linux kernel. We have also implemented both C and Java APIs to provide applications with access to the service. Special low-cost wireless communication devices have been built to support the service. These devices are connected to each machine running the service in a local area network. They create an ad-hoc network that is used solely to convey messages of the failure detection service.

So, tell me. How will the past Civilizations thrive w/out an organized religion? Do you have any idea of even the basics & annals of how you would the Ancients organize and establish a government? Removing Organized Religion is also a Tantamount of removing leadership, Order. Just look at Somalia as a reference. C'mon, are you serious?? Even Sid Meiers Nerds knows about this.
You do realize that Somalia IS religious right?
maybe not all & to that i agree BUT lets not get rid of it all :(
I hear ya! If we were to get rid of all the religiously ba<x>sed laws within the US, our law books would be about half as thick. What the hell happened to separation of church and state?
Nah. Beliefs don't make people evil. People just use them to mask their evil deeds. So if you're good, you're good. If you're bad, you're bad.
"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things, and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion." -Steven Weinberg.
Just makes you different than me. Different isn't evil.
No, what you believe is your business. I agree that the Bible shouldn't have any bearing on gay marriage. Afterall, the Bible was written by people (mostly men who undoubtedly were homophobic). Written by people to control people.
no of course not people are free to believe or not believe in what they want too
I'd be a hypocrite if I condemned you for that! I was just like that till a couple of years ago. I wore a cool Atheist t-shirt with a preying mantis with his arms folded. Now I'm no longer Atheist but also still not religious. And I'm still against all the wrong done in the name of religion. I believe glbti should have the same parenting and marraige rights as anyone. All people are equal in the eyes of God. God doesn't have a chosen people. All religions have truth and mistruth in them. And I don't thinks it's evil to not believe, or evil tobe religious. Evil is when you hurt other people in ways that damage their souls.
I'm fine as long as you don't try to convert me
No it does not. I believe in God. But I also believe people should have the freedom to believe what they want to believe.
I am not against your beliefs. I just choose to believe different that is all. We all can respect each other and agree to disagree on our beliefs. I respect you very much.
I know you are not attacking. We have different beliefs is all. It is all good with me. I have respect for everyone.
not nasty :( lol just down right strong headed :( lol
god bless there souls :) lol
Keep fighting the good fight.
you do realize you just quoted the bible right?
"A wizard is never late nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to." The Bible is not the only book with good quotes.
She didn't exactly quote the Bible, but even if she did, so what? Just because the Bible doesn't accurately describe reality doesn't mean every sentence in it is worthless.
"Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil. Never back away from an enemy. Either fight or surrender. It is not enough to say I will not be evil. Evil must be fought wherever it is found." Iron Code that Druss is taught by Shadak
if we had separation between C & S .... the could call it Progress instead of Congress.....welcome to EP I like your attitude
The religionists who hide behind the Bible for their opposition to gay marriage have it all wrong. Railing against gay marriage isn't Christian. Don't blame our Faith for what others do to pervert it. You aren't evil, you need to think about things a little more. OK?

A union of a gay couples is not only acceptable, it's necessary for them to gain the rights other committed couples have. Make it legal--AND moral it is right to do so.

Here comes the BUT

Don't call it "marriage".

There is no Biblical or religious basis for the arguement I'm about to give.

THe important aspect of marriage is it's sociological connotation. Marriage is the building block of society. It provides an opposite sex committed couple the means to produce and raise children in a safe and nurturiing environment with the best hope for a positive result. It means committment hard work and enduring trials and tribulations.

Yes! There are many gay couples who are superb parents and non-gays who are lousy. THe point is that thew propagation of the species is in the hands of non-gays. The question of do as you wish reproduction and serial monogamy etc are another matter. Oujr society is too lax at the present with these criminals--they are you know.

So please gay couples. conjoin in love and unity. You have the right

Just don't call it marriage
this is an abomination...

MMM, biblical marriage....
Awesome vid.
No,you're not evil.Just dont push anything on me and we're good.
No, it doesn't make you evil. Just means your foundation is of a different substance. And, personally, I can accept that.
anyone one going against God(Higher Power) your evil.
God doesn't need me to defend Him.
not unless you push your beliefs on me. jk LOL
Religion in the past was forced upon people, and many were killed if they went against the church. Many wars were fought over religion too.
thinks both of you women are a lil on the nutty side :) lol
i think everyone should be able to believe what ever they want.
You'd have to be careful about what you call fact; science is merely things that 'fit' into the picture we have drawn that have been observed and agreed upon.
That being said, I see no reason to limit the union of two people to the opposite sex... Especially nowadays that marriage has financial and legal benefits as well, it isn't fair (or really justifiable).
Of course, I live in one!
Assuming you live in the States, I don't envy you. :(
To it just means that you really don't understand the love God has for you, some of the most evil and despicable people in world history have done things in what they mistakenly thought was God's will, but Christian came to earth lowered Himself to that of a human being and died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for all mankind for all of history, I know many atheists cannot accept God because they see Him as the author of rules and regulations and they don't see Him as the one who has perfect love for us, and all He wants is for you to accept the fact that His son Jesus Christ died for all of your sins, don't look to the history of the "church" it is made up of sinful man (even when we accept Christ we are still sinners we won't be perfect until the last trump 1stCor 15) look instead to God and His Son Jesus Christ, who loves you with a perfect love, once you do that you'll see the world in a different light.
no not at all. everybody has a evil in them one way or another
of course not, and it's not my job to judge. I'm a Christian and i am not here to judge, it's your choice at the end what to believe, i can only be the stardust leading to the superstar really. I'd still love you anyway :)

In their final game of the per-season , the WBS Penguins came out and took the Hershey Bears 2-1 at Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza. It was a decent pre-season crowd not huge but decent on hand tonight to watch the hometown Penguins take on their arch rival Bears, in a text I received just as the game got going a buddy of mine said how bout them Bears, busting me about the win the night prior. To which I responded ____me lol, we are just getting started here in WBS.
Tonight's game got started on a bad note as the Penguins were on the PK first, not something you want to see versus a Hershey squad none the less , but the WBS penalty kill was dead on keeping the Bears occupied and the puck out of the net.
Second power play of the game went to the Pens giving them a chance to get things started, just as the power play winds up to speed the Bears get called for a slash putting them down yet another man creating a 5 on 3 situation for the Penguins. Score one for WBS thank you very much Hershey Nick Drazenovic gets the tally putting the Penguins ahead by one, the rest of the man advantage would expire.
Thompson would leave the ice bleeding from what we found out he took a skate to the forehead cutting him rather good he went directly to the dressing room for some medical attention but, returned to the ice later in the game.
Hershey would score in the second period it was a tip in goal more like a trickle in goal by the Bears but it made it one to one. Later in the game Philip Samuelsson would get the go ahead goal for the Pens on a wrap around, more like a skate by reverse motion wrap around, nice move by the way.
Thats where it would stay for the rest of the game Pens beating the Bears 2-1 in regulation. Hartzell looked stellar in net tonight some great saves from rouotine catches to point blank robs he stood his ground,was waiting to see if there was going to be a substitution nearing the midway point of the game but nothing doing he remained in net the entire game.
Well that's it for the pre-season see you first home game of the season on October 12, 2013 again we will face the Hershey Bears so come on out it should be fun.
On a related note I just want to take a moment to thank all of our readers for coming out and showing your colors.

Canada-United Kingdom Joint Declaration
Statement of Commitment 2014: Building on Shared Objectives and Values
The Canada-UK Joint Declaration was endorsed by our Prime Ministers in Ottawa in September 2011 in order to develop a stronger partnership for the 21st century. It encouraged us as Foreign Ministers to meet annually; this is our second annual meeting to Review progress under the Joint Declaration, and to Refresh our objectives for the next twelve months.
Over the last year we have embedded the Joint Declaration in all aspects of our relationship, working to fulfil the objectives set in 2012 but also remaining flexible to respond to evolving priorities and crises in our interconnected world. We work together on a wide range of issues based on our shared values, seeking solutions to current security and prosperity challenges. A selected number of key themes have emerged which will be central to our programme of collaboration over the next 12 months.
Promoting Economic Growth, Trade and Innovation
Jobs and growth are the first priority for both our countries, and we believe that open markets and opportunities are vital to achieve them. Two years ago our Prime Ministers signalled the importance of a successful outcome to negotiations of the Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA). On 18 October 2013, Canada and the EU announced that an Agreement in Principle had been reached on an ambitious agreement that will stimulate trade and investment in both Canada and the UK. As work continues to finalise and ratify the Agreement, we will do our utmost to identify and explain the benefits and showcase the opportunities CETA brings to our businesses and citizens. It is widely thought that the Canadian GDP will increase by $12 billion, and the British GDP by £1.3 billion, as a result of the implementation of CETA.
Canada's and the UK's commitment to energy cooperation has resulted in concrete progress in the fields of marine energy and civil nuclear power. The development of tidal energy in Nova Scotia has been advanced through investment by the UK's Atlantis Resources Ltd. and by an MoU on R&D between the Universities of Strathclyde and Dalhousie. We will continue to jointly promote the benefits of marine renewable energy and will strive to encourage two-way trade and investment in that sector. In the field of civil nuclear power generation, we will continue feasibility studies related to the disposal of UK plutonium and agree to assess the development of power generation based on alternative nuclear fuels. As world leaders in carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology, we will build on our close collaboration through a refresh of our 2008 bilateral joint statement on CCS in the coming year. Our energy companies lead on unconventional energy production and regulation, and our governments will continue to share information on regulatory processes and technical developments related to the exploration and development of unconventional resources such as shale gas, LNG and tight oil. We will continue to cooperate to promote global energy security through relevant international fora such as the International Energy Agency and through energy dialogues such as the Canada-Europe Energy Roundtable, including the application of advanced applications to mitigate environmental impacts and climate change.
Securing Our Countries
We have built on our first year of work under the Joint Declaration by signing a Defence Declaration of Intent that will shape the scope of our relationship moving forward in a combined and deliberate manner. Over the next twelve months we will explore new initiatives to increase interoperability such as through the UK-led Joint Expeditionary Force readiness concept. We will also exchange views on priorities for global defence engagement and explore mutually beneficial burden-sharing opportunities. In view of the recent UK decision to continue British Armed Forces training in Canada and at Suffield specifically for the foreseeable future, we will jointly review the relevant Agreement and MoU.
The UK and Canada stand together as the only two countries that are members of NATO, the G-8, the G-20 and the Commonwealth. We work to ensure that these institutions play to their strengths and continue to strive for accountability. Our shared objective is to shape effective responses to current global challenges, and to promote real and positive change around the world in human rights, security, good governance and global prosperity. The UK's G-8 Presidency presented an opportunity for both our countries to demonstrate the G-8's catalytic role in addressing global issues. We agreed concrete measures on the "Three Ts" agenda—trade, tax, and transparency. We built on the work begun at the G-8 Muskoka Summit, producing the second comprehensive G-8 accountability report; the Canada-UK Colloquium of November 2013 also re-visited the Muskoka G-8 Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Initiative. We look forward to its report on ways in which we can work together to address the new realities in Global Health.
In the G-20 we contributed to the St Petersburg Action Plan to promote stronger, sustainable and balanced global growth and will work together to ensure it is implemented in full. While the global economy is recovering, Australia's 2014 G-20 Presidency will be an opportunity to address the remaining significant challenges. Finally we worked together to deliver a more focused strategic plan for the Commonwealth Secretariat to make it a more effective organisation. We will also continue to work together to ensure that the Commonwealth lives up to the values set out in its Charter.
We commit ourselves to urgent and decisive action to tackle the illegal wildlife trade, including in the Horn of Africa. We recognise that this is now a serious criminal industry which drives corruption, insecurity and has been linked to extremist groups. We will take concerted action to improve law enforcement, reduce demand for illegal wildlife products and support the development of sustainable livelihoods for communities affected by the trade. We will work in partnership to take forward the outcomes of the London Conference on Illegal Wildlife Trade in February 2014.
Promoting Our Shared Values
Canada and the UK have significantly increased diplomatic and political efforts to meet the global challenge to religious freedom. Foreign Minister John Baird is a key member of Baroness Warsi's dedicated international Ministerial group, which coordinates and drives greater political support for religious freedom. The FCO also works closely with Canada's first Ambassador of Religious Freedom, Andrew Bennett, and Canadian experts participate in dedicated training for UK diplomats. Building on the success of the first joint UK and Canada conference on religious freedom in 2012, this year the UK will work closely with Canada to address the global crisis facing religious minorities around the world. We are determined to develop a shared understanding of the issues involved, and committed to exploring ways to deepen our cooperation to promote freedom in countries of mutual concern.
We have worked closely together over the last year to raise awareness of human rights abuses which should have no place in the 21st century. These include joint work in the G-8, the UN Security Council, General Assembly and Human Rights Council to develop the G-8 Declaration on Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict and the UNGA Declaration of Commitment to End Sexual Violence in Conflict, and to broaden international adherence to these commitments. Over the next 12 months we plan to continue this vital work, including on the development of an International Protocol to be launched at the International Summit in June. Canada recognizes the invaluable leadership of the United Kingdom on this file, and we will both continue to co-operate on transforming these political commitments into practical actions and in providing support for conflict affected countries.
The United Kingdom recognizes the leadership role of Canada in work against child, early and forced marriage, which has included collaboration between both countries to protect our citizens at risk, and multilateral cooperation to address this issue more widely, including at the Human Rights Council, the UN General Assembly and within the Commonwealth. Looking ahead, we will intensify our cooperation in the multilateral context and undertake joint advocacy activities in countries heavily impacted by child, early and forced marriage.
Strengthening Our Partnership for Results
Since concluding the Memorandum of Understanding for Enhancing Mutual Support at Missions Abroad last year we have deepened the interoperability between our respective foreign ministries. This allows us to better serve our citizens and advance our common interests and values, while increasing operational efficiencies. This will also expedite the sharing of real-time information in crisis situations and build our respective capacities while fostering a spirit of cooperation. When possible we will share training opportunities, including by opening courses in our respective learning institutes to officials from both countries.
The temporary co-location within the British Embassy in Burma allowed Canada to establish its first resident Ambassador in 2013, in advance of the completion of Canada's own Chancery in mid-2014. Canada is currently working with the UK on a possible expansion of its presence in the Embassy of Canada to Haiti. Both of these co-locations serve to facilitate and enhance our mutual cooperation in these countries. Similarly Canada is working closely with the UK on expanding Canada's presence in Iraq, with a growing complement of staff co-located in the British Embassy in Baghdad.
We will continue to review and report on progress on these objectives annually, so that the Joint Declaration remains a living document reflecting our evolving shared priorities.
Endorsed in London on 12 February 2014.
The Honourable John Baird, P.C., M.P.
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Foreign Affairs, Trade and International Development Canada
The Right Honourable William Hague, P.C., M.P.

Remember that a good roofing system is one of the most essential items of home or apartment maintenance. Obviously it's what keeps you and your home dry in rain, ice or snow situations, . Keep the details you read below in mind to ensure that you make certain your home remains safe.
When considering roofing material always take into consideration the climate you live in. Roofings made from clay are outstanding for drier environments but in wetter climates can harm a roof quite rapidly. If you aren't sure, make certain to ask an educated expert.
Make sure that you take the proper safety precautions before attempting to climb up on your roof. Even if you think you will be safe, you should always wear a harness. It is also a good idea to wear boots that have rubber soles as they will stop you from sliding.
residential roofers reading berkshire
When you are ready to have your roof covering replaced, remember that there are a great deal of nails up there, meaning that as the shingles are taken off, nails are can end up being loose and therefore will be liable to falling either down onto your property or in the street. Most contractors will place a tarpaurlin to catch as many of the loose nails as possible. If your contractor does not do this, question them as to how the nails will be found and gathered up from your property.
Unless it is an emergency, it is best to avoid any major roof repairs until the milder weather as the elements will be kinder if the job stretches over more than a day or two.
Maintaining your roofing in tip-top condition is vital. Make sure to make use of the recommendations provided here so that your home or apartment and your household remain safe. Some minor effort now can keep you from experiencing major issues in the future.

The Bonneauville Borough Council unanimously approved its 2014 budget in December, which includes a 0.25-mill fire tax.
The budget, with $1,667,154 in expenditures and $2,7,11,348 in revenue, does not include a real estate tax increase, but the new fire tax translates to an additional $50 a year for a home valued at $200,000.
The tax will translate to $15,000 in revenue for the fire department, said Jerry Poland, Bonneauville Fire Department chief.
Poland has been advocating for a fire tax for the last two and a half years, he said. It is difficult to recruit volunteers who must go through required training on their own time in addition to having jobs and families, and then also have to spend time raising funds to support the department.
The fire tax will lessen the financial burden on the fire department, which had an operating budget of $280,000 in 2013, Poland said.
