Snorkeling Thailand and Cambodia

Hi fellow fish
Any tips for good snorkeling spots in Thailand and Cambodia?
I am currently on Koh Phangan, which is pretty average for snorkeling, I have enjoyed Koh Tao on other trips.
I am travelling in Thailand and Cambodia for the next couple of months.
Any advice appreciated.

You're pretty limited at this time of year because of the weather. Best bet at the moment is Ko Tao unfortunately. I have done a snorkelling trip from Sihanoukville but it wasn't that great and I expect the weather is pretty wet there too at the moment.
How about the east coast of Malaysia? Perhentians and the like? Train goes there and buses. Check flights from Surat Thani to KL too on Air Asia. Malaysia is a bit more expensive than Thailand or Cambodia but there's no visa fee for most nationals.

Facebook's Sequential Revenue Decline -- Or, Taking The Sense Out Of Seasonality
by Catharine P. Taylor on Apr 26, 12:12 PM
Much has been said about the amendment to Facebook's S1 this week, but, for the Social Media Insider, it's still not enough. Something has been troubling me about the newly revealed numbers in the S1, and it has a name: seasonality.

10 Lessons From 'The Hunger Games'
by David Berkowitz on Apr 24, 12:10 PM
When you read or watched "The Hunger Games," did you catch all the lessons for social media marketers? Any story about a post-apocalyptic society sacrificing 23 teenagers annually was clearly written with marketers in mind. Maybe that's not the case, but there's still plenty marketers can learn. Here are 10 lessons coming all the way from Panem, the nation featured in "The Hunger Games":

The Yin And Yang Of Facebook Ads
by Catharine P. Taylor on Apr 20, 9:54 AM
So, today I'm trying to figure out Facebook. Not about whether I should invest in it when it goes public (I won't have the money), but about what the numbers on whether to advertise on it -- or not -- really mean.

Entering the Era Of Social Ennui
by David Berkowitz on Apr 17, 11:45 AM
As social media's popularity continues to reach new heights, with boys in short pants creating billion-dollar social businesses practically overnight, there seems to be a collective yearning to slow down the oversharing. Recent reports, blog posts, and editorials have expressed three general principles: we're sharing too much or too often; online relationships are not the same as relationships forged in person; and, there's a negative aspect to this that has either been documented or is theoretically worrisome.

To Catch (Or Report On) A Thief, Pick The Right Platforms
by Catharine P. Taylor on Apr 12, 4:24 PM
Believe it or not, here, in this week that Instagram was bought by Facebook for a mere $1 billion, I've been struggling with the issue of what to write about. Partly this is because, as it is now several days after the acquisition, it has been covered to death. I've nothing to add. So, as I was mulling what to write about early this afternoon, I procrastinated by posting a comment on my local Patch site about a story discussing what platforms local authorities should use to give residents emergency notifications.

Facebook Acquires Itself
by David Berkowitz on Apr 10, 1:16 PM
There's no way you missed this week's tech news: Facebook spent $1 billion to acquire Instagram, the mobile photo-sharing application sensation. This may be a factually accurate description, but it misses the heart of the story. What happened was, Facebook spent $1 billion to acquire a piece of itself.

It's The Person, Not The Platform, Stupid
by Catharine P. Taylor on Apr 5, 2:04 PM
Over and over, we've seen stereotypes emerge about digital media, with people making sweeping judgments about a particular social publishing platform without taking into account that it's the individual that dictates what goes on the platform, not the platform itself.

The Good Book Of Temptations
by David Berkowitz on Apr 3, 11:16 AM
The world is full of temptations. According to the Bible, that's how the world has been since week one. Today, temptation is more accessible than ever, so it's hardly surprising that some institutions are trying to regulate how their members use the Internet. Yet exceptions can be made, and in one prominent case, it was a brand that inspired a loophole.

of course they do. did you see that video, that ICBM worked. they are designed to work, not f** up on launch.
few might fail, but other surely will get the target
current topol-m icbm have life span of about 34 months. they are upgrading them so life span will increase to 15 years.
and btw, this one takes 2 minutes to prepare for launch
PS: we are discussing which is most advanced ICBM, not which ICBM will fail on launch

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Less than 24 hours after the Texas Rangers clinched their first division title in 11 years, the plastic was off the lockers, the champagne bottles were cleared out and the haze from the cigar smoke had dissipated.
And Michael Young's voice was gone.
"I lost my voice from the celebration yesterday, but it was fun," Young said Sunday. "In the back of everybody's mind, we're still focused on the big prize."
The team leader, who was called up to the majors 10 years ago in the last week of September, wasn't going to let the memory of finally clinching his first postseason appearance fade too quickly.
Young was at the center of the crazy celebration Saturday. He was mobbed by teammates at third base just after the final out was registered and hugged each and every member of the team on the field, clearly excited to end a long drought.
He was doused with cheap champagne and even had a cooler full of ice dumped on him like a Super Bowl-winning coach. He stayed in the clubhouse for about two hours after the game and then had dinner with his parents and in-laws
"I'm glad I'm a Ranger," Young said Saturday, drenched in a mixture of beer, alcohol and water. "This is where I've always wanted to be. This is the place I call home. These are the fans I'm proud to represent. This is an organization I'm proud to represent."
A day later, Young was still reflecting a little on what it all means to him.
"I made my big league debut for this team in Oakland in 2000, and the fact that I'm still a Ranger means everything to me," Young said. "I want to win here. I want to finish my career here. Hopefully this is just a start."
No one deserves this postseason more than Young, though you'd never get the team leader to admit that.
"I don't think I deserve to win any more than anyone else in this clubhouse just because I've been here awhile," Young said days before the clinching game. "This is our team. This is the 2010 team. It has nothing to do with what's happened in the past.
"I knew we'd win here. It's too special a place to play, so I knew it would happen eventually. The biggest thing was when it was going to happen and the group of guys I'd be around with. I couldn't imagine suiting up with a better group of guys. They are guys that are hungry to win and are flat-out great teammates."
Statements like that are one reason Young is such an important leader.
He has compiled an impressive list of individual accomplishments. He's won a Gold Glove and an AL batting title. He is the all-time franchise hits leader and a six-time All-Star. He is one of only six players in major league history with at least 200 hits in five or more consecutive seasons.
But it's not just his performance on the field since he was acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays along with pitcher Darwin Cubillan in exchange for pitcher Esteban Loaiza in 2000 that sets him apart.
How many elite players are asked to change infield positions twice for the good of the team?
Young finished second in the Gold Glove balloting at second base in 2003, but he shuffled over to shortstop when Alex Rodriguez was traded for Alfonso Soriano. Then, when the club decided that Elvis Andrus was ready to start at shortstop in the big leagues last year despite never playing above Double-A, Young moved to third base. That change came one season after he'd won his first Gold Glove at shortstop.
Young certainly didn't want to move from shortstop and made that clear. But after the decision was made, he focused on learning a new position and improving. He gained even more respect from a young team because of it.
Young figured he'd be taking swigs of champagne a lot sooner than 2010. He never dreamed it would take this long when, in spring training of 2007, he and the club made a huge commitment to each other with a long-term contract through 2013.
Among active players, Young had the second-most career games without a postseason appearance (1,501 entering Saturday). He was more than 200 games behind Randy Winn of the St. Louis Cardinals, whose drought is likely to continue.
"I thought it would happen before now and I always thought Tex would be here with me," Young said, referring to former teammate Mark Teixeira. "But once the '07 season began to unravel, I knew it was going to take awhile and we had to let the rebuilding plan take its course."
Teixeira, one of Young's closest friends, is among many players who are pleased that Young is getting his chance to experience postseason baseball.
"It's great that Michael is finally getting this opportunity because he just wants to win," Teixeira said earlier this month. "He always plays the game hard and always plays the game the right way and he deserves to have a chance to win a World Series.
"We were younger, but by the time I left we had a really young team and everyone looked at Michael as the guy that had been there the longest. He was the most tenured and we didn't have many veterans in that clubhouse. So even at 30, 29 years old, Michael was the leader."
Teixeira, who has won a World Series with the New York Yankees, told Young in spring training that he thought the Rangers would win the AL West. And Teixeira's departure from Texas is one reason why that's now happened.
Young knew that sending Teixeira to Atlanta during the 2007 season for a package of players that included 2010 stalwarts Elvis Andrus, Neftali Feliz and Matt Harrison meant starting over with a team that was going to take some major lumps in an effort to learn together at the big league level.
The commitment general manager Jon Daniels made to putting together a strong farm system that could build assets from within was not a one-year project. Young knew that.
When the club began to show signs of competing in 2009, Young called Daniels before the trade deadline to tell him the team liked its young players and would support Daniels if he decided to hold his cards and prepare for an even better 2010. Daniels did that, allowing him to play those cards in various deals this season to help get the team to its first postseason in more than a decade.
Young, now 33, will finally get a chance to experience it.
"It's the most important thing for him," said second baseman Ian Kinsler, one of Young's closest friends. "He's basically accomplished everything in the game as far as awards are concerned individually. He's wanted a taste of that postseason. He wants to play on that stage."
Kinsler has seen Young grow right along with the rest of the team as the club continued to improve with more young talent.
"Michael is going to do his thing every day and that's what he brings to the field," Kinsler said. "But now he understands that he's been in the league for 10 years and he has a lot of experience and things he can teach the younger players. And he's doing that."
Whether that's giving an encouraging word or a stern lecture when needed, Young will do it.
He and some of the other veterans called a team meeting in Toronto after the club lost its fifth straight game earlier this month, and the Rangers went on to rattle off seven straight wins (including a sweep of the Yankees).
He's never been a rah-rah leader, but he allows teammates to learn from his actions. Young's reputation throughout the league is that he's a hard worker who will do anything to win.
"We see that every day from him," reliever Darren O'Day said. "He's here doing everything he can to get better and make the team better."
So finally, after breaking into the majors with the Rangers for most of the 2001 season and becoming an everyday fixture since, Young is going to the postseason.
Manager Ron Washington, who gave Young a big bear hug on the field after the final out on Saturday, told his third baseman how proud he was to coach him.
"I thanked him with all my heart for helping these guys get there," Washington said. "I thanked him with all my heart for being a leader. These guys followed him. I reminded him that we need 11 more wins and to make sure he let the team know that."
There's no question Young will. He waited 10 years to taste champagne in a winning clubhouse. He'd rather not wait too much longer for the bigger prizes that could await this team in the postseason.

A few weeks ago, a woman called me with an idea for my column.
She had just read "In His Steps," a book written in 1896 that sparked the "WWJD" (What Would Jesus Do?) phenomena in the 1990s, the WWJD bracelets, bumper stickers, refrigerator magnets, et al.
The book, written by Charles Sheldon, is a fictional story about a pastor who challenges his congregation not to do anything for an entire year without first asking, "What would Jesus do?" and then do that.

Police: Distraction causes crash
EAST MONTPELIER Vermont State Police say a two-car accident Wednesday in East Montpelier was caused by a driver momentarily taking his eyes off the road.
State police say Ryan Golden, 21, of Barre, was driving west on Route 2, looked away for a second and rear-ended Robert Rouleau, 27, who had stopped to pull into his driveway.
State police say Goldens vehicle sustained major front-end damage and Rouleaus sustained minor damage. Rouleaus 10-month-old daughter, who was in a car seat in his vehicle, was not injured, nor was Golden, police said, but Rouleau was taken to Central Vermont Medical Center with neck and back pain.

Cost estimates
The engineer's preliminary cost estimates for the NE Lake District project are $2.6 million for sewers, and $1.7 million for water. If the combined water and sewer projects are financed at 3 percent interest, Mr. Dunkle estimated that it will cost each property owner approximately $160 per month (for the 20-year financing option), or approximately $120 per month (for the 30-year financing option). For those 28 properties already on sewers, the cost for water is estimated to be approximately $60 per month for 20 years, or $45 per month for 30 years.
In addition, home owners will be responsible for connecting their existing sewer and water plumbing to the new services. The district will supply and install up to 100 feet of the sewer service line into each property as well as install the sewer pump and pump station at the most desirable location. The property owners will then be responsible for disconnecting existing plumbing and re-routing it to the installed pump station.
Cost estimates have been previously given that range from $1,500 to $10,000. If the home is located within 100 feet of the street where the sewer line will be installed, these costs should be on the lower end of the estimate range. If public water is part of the project, the district will provide a three-quarter-inch or one-inch water service and shutoff valve at the edge of the street for each property. The homeowner would be responsible for disconnecting the well plumbing and installing the piping and connection to the service at the street.
These costs will also vary significantly for each property; estimates range from $500 to $5,000. Wells must be disconnected from any public water supply. Septic systems should also be filled in to prevent future collapse. These would also be the responsibility of each homeowner.

|Reviews for A Comfortable Sort of Love
| Elficiel chapter 1 . 5/29/2013
It's great to see your take on non-support pairings, they're always credible and well depicted. You said in your profile you aimed for giving fictional characters more human and realistic traits, and you managed it. Now, Hector is definitively going to be my favourite FE7 character.
| Sardonic Kender Smile chapter 1 . 12/13/2012
[But there was the whole "she runs away from him every time he approaches her" thing.] So, this. I'm glad you brought this up. I like HectorxFlorina well enough, but every fic I've read about them has her getting over her fear, or rather her LIFE-CHANGING PHOBIA, extremely quickly. It just doesn't happen that way, IF EVER, so it's refreshing to see a more realistic take on things here.
["Naw," he said, sounding casual. "I didn't think you did. I just thought, you know, it wouldn't hurt to say it, just in case."] Oh my gosh. My heart. I actually said "Abloobloobloo" out loud while reading this. STOP MAKING ME SO SAD. AND MAKING ME LOVE HECTOR SO MUCH.
I think Farina's section is really the most powerful. It's just so true and so strong and something that really happens to people. You brought in all the possible baggage that Farina could've had in her past without being explicit about anything. Also, this line: [She rolled out from beneath him and dressed herself with practiced ease.] SO TELLING. Easily the best line in the entire fic, just for the weight it carries and the explanation it gives, all by itself. The best writing is mostly lines like this. I really struggle with them, myself.
I also really like your version of older!Serra. She strikes me as a little more mature, but still full of...well, Serra. And the idea of a comfortable love is such a great one, as we've discussed before. When all is said and done, it should be comforting still. Like a fine wine! It changes with age into just what you need.
This one was my favourite, of what I've read so far today. BY THE WAY.
| Queen Lua chapter 1 . 8/8/2012
Ooh, I really liked this.
I particularly dug the bit with Farina—the way she keeps her emotional distance, even after being with Hector for so long, even when he's trying so hard—it felt very plausible, and the parting there was both inevitable and a little sad. And the other scenes were great too; the dialogue felt pitch-perfect throughout.
Thanks for sharing!
| Dragonspite chapter 1 . 6/8/2012
This was cute and very romantic. :3
| Bananafrak chapter 1 . 4/5/2012
| Writer Awakened chapter 1 . 2/28/2012
Aww. Very nice. Both the rejections and the end result were very well-written. It's way too easy to screw up in a relationship; you've portrayed that nicely here. And the ending's cool too.
Nice work.
| quintilis chapter 1 . 2/26/2012
Yes yes yes! I don't think I've ever seen Hector/Serra before so this was wonderful. I've always been partial to Serra and never really liked any of Hector's conventional matches (except his bromance with Eliwood of course). I really liked how there was a symmetry with Hector's past interests and Oswin for Serra. It's appropriate that they don't fall in love magically all at once because that would not be fitting considering their circumstances. I wish I could help you with typos and things but I'm on my phone at the moment and can't really read too well. Anyway, thanks for the read! It was a breath of fresh air in the FE fandom.
| Mark of the Asphodel chapter 1 . 2/26/2012
Aw. I was waiting for you to post this one, and it turned out to be very satisfying.
I do like how you write failed or non-starter relationships without their being a bad guy. Hector's missteps were believable and he and the three girls all remained sympathetic, and the specific direction each failure took seemed well in-character.
And the ending! I admit to a bias for that particular pairing, but it was realistic and moving (and, ooh, the part about Oswin) and just *worked* for me.
Did notice a few rough spots in the grammar ("if he'd been destroying from the moment") but the word choice and such was effective throughout. Thumbs up.

Farrah Abraham Celebrates Daughter Sophia's 4th Birthday With New Photo Shoot
They grow up so fast! Farrah Abraham is getting ready to celebrate daughter Sophia's 4th birthday on Feb. 23. To help document the special occasion, the Teen Mom star, 20, posed with the birthday girl for a series of adorable new photos.
In one mother-daughter shot, Sophia wraps her arms around her mom while wearing ballerina slippers and a pink tutu that says "Happy Birthday" on it.
The fun photo shoot is only the beginning of Sophia's birthday celebrations. On Monday, Feb. 18, Abraham tweeted, "Countdown till Sophia's Birthday. 23rd is the big day. Planning . . ."
And it sounds like Abraham is looking forward to partying. The MTV star wrote a new blog post on Sulia Feb. 16 titled, "Moms Like to Party Too."
PHOTOS: The Teen Mom cast, then and now
"Moms should not have to deal with all the scrutiny when it comes to going out," she wrote. "I, of course, have heard my overshare from public patrons who either are not parents themselves or just haters who want to ruin someone else's night out (sad but true)."
PHOTOS: Most controversial star moms
"I feel if anyone needs to go out and have a good time it is a person who has a lot of stress in their lives," she added. "But also making sure we're responsible and our responsibilities in our personal lives are taken care of first is the best way to then go out and enjoy a stress free environment. If you have childcare, chores, bills, and much more to add to the list covered and in place then (IGNORE) all the hate when you're out."

I think a lot of the female contestants have said they used contraceptive pills to manage their period while they're away.
The idea that anyone woman, who should know about personal hygiene, would throw a tampon in there is gross.

"That's Numberwang!"
Was it really a tampon? I couldn't tell what it was. If it was then that is just nasty. Burry that shit in the ground somewhere don't go throwing it in with your suplies. I shudder at the thought. What would be ones thought process to do such a thing?

I got the feeling that the guys were much like junior high summer campers--trying to figure out how to sneak over to the girls side of the lake on a panty raid.
I like Christy, and felt bad about her not being able to read lips around the fire, and the lack of consideration she was given.
Hello...this is survivor...in the Amazon...do we have to wash buffs and panties after the first day..before you get shelter? :roll
Glad I'm not in the Amazon!
Great show. Shawna, Dave & Heidi came across as really likeable. Jenna seemed to whine a lot. Roger & Butch's authority thing is gonna get old really quick. Rob seems like he'll be fun to watch, whether you like him or not. Were Deena & Jeanne even on the show? Matthew seemed like as much of a jerk as I expected. Alex's sideburns annoyed me, they're like reddish & his hair is black.
Wow that IC choke was Ghandia-esque, truly pathetic.
Ryan was a total tool, I'm glad he's gone.
It looks like it's going to be a pretty good season, I wish there was 90 minutes every week.
Here's a vidcap of that mystery item in the ladies camp. I still have no clue what it is.

It kind of looks like an empty candy wrapper. Maybe someone ate something they didn't share. Reminiscent of the beef jerky drama only this time with evidence? Or Clarence and the beans?
MSG brings out the flavor...worth the headache...
I totally agree with you, Green Hornet. The other women were very inconsiderate when they left Christy behind by herself without even telling her where they were going. That was so freakin' rude.Originally posted by TheGreenHornet
I couldn't help but to feel bad Christy and not because she is deaf but because she is in an impossible position. The women seem to be isolating her and the communication barior is going to likely lead to an early exit. It is to bad to because her ability to read lips could have been an incredible asset.
One of the girls (can't remember who) said being in an all-girl camp has got to be one of the worst nightmares, and I agree. Some of them were just standing around, other washing their clothes, they were only able to get 4 logs for the fire. They all had to be in groups to do something. This isn't the bathroom ladies! It was pretty pathetic.
I'm still glad that the girls beat the guys in the immunity challenge. They were way too cocky, and they needed this blow to their ego.

Surely no one would be stupid enough to throw the evidence into their supply barrel?!
Well, I liked Christy. She did well during the immunity challenge and was slapping hands with the other gals when they got past the balance beam, so I figure that she's fitting in better. She also seems to be working on important things. Unlike Jenna who had to wash her skivvies because she might get bugs in them.
Jenna annoyed me the most - she struck me as a total waste of oxygen.
Rob also annoyed me, but I bet he stays around for a while. He seems to be a sneaky sonofagun - which might be entertaining if I can stand his chavinistic comments.
Roger is kinda bossy, but he also seems to know what he's doing.

For islands/structures/seasteads on the larger scale, transportation, more specifically public transportation, would
most likely become an issue. For this purpose, I would like to introduce you to the Shweeb:
-human powered, no external energy required
-relatively simple and cheap
-full-fledged transit system (see link below)
-promote fitness/health
-requires a good
-sized seastead to be cost-effective
-extraneous costs
-specific limits on type of seastead
So, what do all of you think? For very in-depth technical information, please read the following link. Pretty amazing stuff
Cheers!October 21, 2010 at 5:54 pm #11643
Hi RCC,
Interesting concept, though I imagine implementing it for inter-island transport would pose some challenges. Drifting of seasteads sounds like a oceanic disaster to me, though I know nothing about the materials that are available that would address this problem. I'm also not convinced that "human effort" is the way of the future. Looks fun, though! I'd do it. Can't speak for an exec who'd rather rest on his way home rather than do more work.

Not sure if we're on the same page, but I was referring to "inter" island transport as in within a single island, not "intra", or between multiple islands. Not to sound like a jerk, just clarifying
I would disagree with you and say that human effort is the way of the future, especially in this case. They have taken a normally physical, strenuous activity, and made it even more effortless than walking!
(Reference from FAQ section on the website: On firm, flat ground, a 70kg man requires about 100 watts to walk at 5km/h. The power required to move a Shweeb along a rail at 20km/h is only 33 watts. )
Part of advancement, in my view, is simplifying tasks for people, and the Shweeb system seems to do so very well in the case of transport.

For Seasteading, adapt the concept… An enclosed, pedal-powered hydroplane out to work for short trips…
Never be afraid to try something new…

Sorry, but you've got it backwards (at least according to my Webster's New World Dictionary):
intra- = prefix within, inside (intramural, intravenous)
inter- = prefix between or among (interstate, international)October 22, 2010 at 4:28 am #11657
Semantics 😀
On a single seastead it could be a cool attraction, though I wonder how much effort is required as the angle of incline increases. This seems far better for wider spaces, versus places where square footage comes at a premium. Are there places that use these for mass transit to elevated spots?

The Seasteading InstituteOctober 22, 2010 at 5:30 am #11658
@Ken Sims hahaha that's all my fault…. I misread the dictionary entry
@Eric Jacobus My idea is for more entertainment, but as speedy and simple transportation around the seastead. Yes, I agree
about the size, I was only proposing it for large areas because it would not really be needed or cost-effective on a small Stead.
In terms of inclines, there is a proposed system of a conveyor chain to assist any pods without sufficient momentum to make
it up the incline themselves. It would only be activated for those slower pods and would most likely use solar panels for power.
(At the website, see "Elevation" in the Technology section)
-El CapitanOctober 22, 2010 at 9:02 pm #11660
This tech is one of the winners of a contest Google ran, they were mentioned in a few news-articles I came across. Interesting premise. It's even featured in a green amusement park in Australia.
That said, it is completely unrelated to seasteading. The concept doesn't mesh at all with any of the proposed plans on this site. Nor did the suggestion come with a seasteading specific thought. Which makes me think this is another attempt to garner PR and attention from the company than an actual suggestion.
I could be wrong though. RCC, are you connected in any way with the Shweeb?
Anywho… I still think the technology has merit on land based systems. It's definitely better than the idea China is attempting with the bus that rides over cars on the highway… what a farse that is. I can't wait to hear about the death toll once it's implimented.
Live Well!
-JasonOctober 25, 2010 at 6:33 pm #11680
I agree with Jason. For infrastructure it seems like a very inefficient use of dock space. Perhaps when dock space is cheaper some time in the future, the shweeb could be a profitable venture.

I also found out about Shweeb from the article on Google's award of 1 million USD to
them, but no, I do not work for or am in any way affiliated with them. This idea was mainly
one for a city's infrastructure, not just specifically a seastead's. I do still believe that it is a
concept that could work well for seasteading though. I see no major difference if it was to
be implemented in a land-based city or one out at sea.
Maybe I'm just thinking to large though.

ellmer – http://yook3.comParticipant
when we imagine a seastead as a chambered floating structure very similar to the Nkossa Barge (picture) it would be worth investigating if we could not use schweeb inside a tunnel system that connects the chambers – it would fulfill the same task as the elevator system in a highrise building. (moving people efficiently trough "relative small tunnels" so that the "real estate relevant living space" of the building is not eaten up by dozends of stairways). Moving inside a tunnel sistem like a hamster may be a weird concept for people but we could imagine seasteaders as open minded people who could find it viable and fun.
I can also imagine shweeb going trugh submerged tunnels that are little more than big sized plastic pipes to connect seasteads with each other – those pipes would be flexible to take movements between seasteads and help to anchor the seastead in the sense of the earlier discussed seastar concept and grid seasteading concept.
European Submarine Structures ABOctober 26, 2010 at 1:42 pm #11697
Always love the visuals in your posts. I think walking would get us around the Nkossa barge just fine. If we did connect the seasteads up with flexible tunnels, then I could see the Shweeb as one option of many for transportation.
Until we see seastead cities the size of Tokyo I don't think the Shweeb will fit. It is a curious bit of technology though, something to keep on the backburner until an efficient use could be found.
Live Well!
-JasonOctober 28, 2010 at 6:48 am #11717
The idea of using light vehicles to reduce weight and cost of the guideway has been proposed by Skytran, http://www.skytran.net/phpsite/home/Home%20Intro.php and Skyweb Express, http://www.taxi2000.com/ . Schweeb is a combination of the two, using the suspended rail system of Skytran with the wheels from Skyweb Express instead of magnetic levitation like Skytran. Relying on human powered propulsion on a transit system requiring this scale of infrastructure investment is just plain silly, to put it mildly. It would be a good system, though, by motorizing it and using automated control so riding it is like taking a horizontal elevator from point to point as envisioned by Skytran and Skyweb.October 28, 2010 at 5:27 pm #11726
Keep in mind that you need a way to transport goods within the seastead too, i don't see an efficient way to make it work with shweeb i wouldn't want to carry a wardrobe on a hi-tech bike. Even if its a huge seastead, walking will do just fine as jason said. If you are going for a giant buoy thingie you'll probably need an elevator though since spiral stairs will make the daily life a little painful in that case. Whole thing you are stepping on is artifical in a seastead, so every extra maens an extra cost, there is no need to incraese the cost (even if it is little) of transportation, since we have legs. And comparing energy efficiency isn't wise at all, in an isolated enviroment like a seastead permanent passengers will lack exercise so i think not investing on intra-seastead transportation is the best investment.

Investors pull $1 bln from hedge fund giant Winton
LONDON, Feb 13 (Reuters) – Winton Capital, one of the
world's most successful hedge fund firms, has seen clients pull
$1 billion of cash out of its portfolios amid falling returns
from computer-driven fund managers.
The firm set up by Cambridge physicist David Harding, one of
Britain's richest financiers, said that assets had dropped to
about $26 billion at the end of 2012, from $29 billion in May.
Hedge funds trade on ahead of Argentine debt showdown
LONDON (Reuters) – Hedge funds are actively trading in Argentina's choppy markets ahead of its legal showdown with rebel sovereign bondholders later this month.
Investors and creditors are waiting to see if a U.S. court upholds a ruling made on February 27 that prevents Argentina from paying holders of bonds issued in debt swaps in 2005 and 2010 until it pays interest and principal due to so-called "holdout" creditors who had refused to swap.
Hedge funds up bets against Italy's Monte Paschi
LONDON (Reuters) – Big-name London hedge funds Odey Asset Management and Egerton Capital are among those upping their bets against Monte dei Paschi di Siena (BMPS.MI: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) in recent days, after revelations the troubled Italian bank faces heavy losses.
Italy's third-biggest bank is under investigation for an opaque series of derivatives and structured finance contracts between 2007 and 2009 that could cost it 720 million euros. The scandal surrounding the world's oldest bank, which is already in need of a 3.9 billion euro ($5.34 billion) state bailout, has become a campaign issue three weeks before Italy holds national elections.
Broker Tullett Prebon lets some staff delay bonuses
LONDON (Reuters) – Broker Tullett Prebon (TLPR.L: Quote, Profile, Research) is to let some senior staff delay bonus payments until April, meaning they can benefit from a tax cut for Britain's best paid.
Although in no way unlawful, that could be controversial at a time British politicians and voters are focused on the tax affairs of wealthy individuals and big businesses.
UK broker Tullett Prebon to let top staff delay bonuses
LONDON, Jan 28 (Reuters) – British broker Tullett Prebon
has offered some senior executives the opportunity to

Hedge funds jostling to bet against France's Peugeot
LONDON, Jan 25 (Reuters) – Hedge fund short-sellers have
hoovered up nearly all available shares in Peugeot in
their scramble to bet the French carmaker will be an early
victim in an industry struggling to overcome a collapse in
European sales.
Peugeot is now one of the most in-demand stocks in Europe
for short-selling by hedge funds, with 92 percent of shares
available to borrow – the "lending pool" supplied by
institutional investors – now out on loan, according to data
group Markit.
Ex-Brevan Howard star Rokos launches family office-sources
LONDON, Jan 17 (Reuters) – Chris Rokos, co-founder of hedge
fund firm Brevan Howard, is focusing on managing his own
fortune, two sources told Reuters, the latest star trader to set
up a so-called "family office" rather than work for others amid
tighter regulations.
The former Goldman Sachs trader, who left Brevan last summer
after the amount of money he managed was cut, has set up the
office in the heart of London's upmarket Mayfair district, close
to Berkeley Square, one of the sources said.
Bulls beat bears in tough year for European hedge funds
LONDON (Reuters) – Betting against the European Central Bank, and the eurozone's survival in general, proved a costly strategy for hedge funds in 2012.
Hedge funds who bet Europe's debt crisis would worsen were last year's big losers, lagging those who risked an upbeat stance, according to investors in the industry and data on funds' performance.
Armstrong hedge fund eyes stocks rally, buys Apple
LONDON (Reuters) – Hedge fund manager Patrick Armstrong is backing his confidence in the technology and luxury goods sectors by buying shares in Apple and holding his positions in the likes of LVMH and BMW.
Armstrong, who co-manages $220 million as head of investment selection at Armstrong Investment Managers, believes that such companies will help to drive the S&P 500 and other stock markets to new highs in 2013, aided by central banks' pro-growth policies and fast-growing emerging markets.
Hedge fund exit requests jump after lackluster year
LONDON (Reuters) – Client demands to pull money out of hedge funds rose to their highest level in more than three years in December, at the end of a year that has left many investors disappointed with performance.

Gabriel Pryce is a film maker extraordinaire, spending his time between New York and London and part of he ultra-creative Real Gold collective, Gabriel is one to watch. A string of short films already under his belt from studying at New York School Of Visual Arts, expect some big things from Gabe in the future.
Last month he released his latest short film Ginger, a beautifully shot film examining story structure. In creating characters, relationships, actions and definite but questionable connections, and limiting dialogue, Ginger asks the audience to decide rather than to decipher, to work around this framework of a story, to fill in the blanks as each individual sees fit to create a unique and personal viewing experience.

LAS CRUCES >> Good, healthy food is good, healthy business for Las Cruces.
With three natural grocers in town, business is booming and shop owners say there is more than enough demand to justify the growth. Natural Grocers, 3970 E. Lohman Ave., is the latest entrant in the specialty market scene, having opened just last April. It joins Toucan Market, 1701 E. University Ave. and the granddaddy, Mountain View Market Co-op, 1300 El Paseo Road, which has been in business since 1975.
But owners say there is room for all, even in a market the size of Las Cruces.
"Las Cruces has a highly educated population and, relative to its population size, we believe that Las Cruces was underserved in the natural and organic market, which is why we picked Las Cruces as a city to open a store in," said Kemper Isely, co-president of Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage. "At this point, we do not believe that Las Cruces has reached a saturation point for niche groceries and there is still room for other niche groceries to open in the Las Cruces market place and succeed."
At Mountain View, Mo Valko, marketing manager, said the market is supporting enough business that they plan to remodel the store, focusing on expansion of the fresh food department, the kitchen and fresh meat and produce.
"We're just getting started. We've ordered new equipment. We will see some of those changes in the next month," Valko said. "It will be a process that will last through spring."
What sets Mountain View aside is the longstanding ownership by the roughly 4,500 members and a desire for organic and local foods, she said.
"I really think we are poised for a lot of growth in this community," she said. "I think along with that comes a raised concern about health. People move here because of health concerns. The weather, more activity, that goes hand-in-hand with healthy eating and healthy lifestyles. People who tend toward a more active lifestyle tend to have more healthy eating habits."
One of the reasons for the expansion was a desire among customers to have ready-to-go, healthy meal options with an expanded cold salad bar and hot food bar.
"We are one of the only places in town that does 80 percent organic and local products," she said. "I think the reality of economics of Doña Ana County is we are one of the poorer counties in the state.
"But we try to meet that with our low price program and our bulk foods as well as free cooking classes."
It's filling that niche that allows specialty grocers to thrive in Las Cruces, Bob Baur, owner of Toucan Market, said.
"We are different because we are a crossover grocery store," Baur said. "We are the 'foodies' store."
Baur said that filling a specific niche is vital to survival. Mountain View leans more to organic and homeopathic remedies and Natural Grocers is a Vitamin Cottage with added specialty groceries.
Toucan survives by specializing in farm-to-table meats, specialty foods, and gluten-free offerings.
"We don't have just organic beef, we have natural beef because we are trying to be affordable for the market," he said. "Being a local grocery store, we carry the local items, New Mexico coffee, Salopek pecans, Heart of the Desert pistachios and Dick's Salsa" among other local offerings.
"We're all filling a niche," he added. "I think we have enough people that will come. I think we do a good job of staying close and providing terrific customer service. We are for sure hometown, same as the co-op."

Successful trading, in general, is difficult and options specifically can be compli-cated. In most cases, those who do well have an ability to focus on good processes and let the results take care of themselves.
Nobody is more familiar with this situation than professional trader and quantitative analyst Euan Sinclair. In Option Trading, he's broken down the process into the parts you need to thrive—an understanding of market structure, knowledge of the instruments you trade, a way to capture an edge, and a methodology for managing risk.
Written with the serious trader in mind, this comprehensive guide opens by exploring options, both historically and conceptually, and then uses the no-arbitrage principle to introduce option pricing—examining both static arbitrage relationships and the dynamic hedging approach. With this critical background in hand, the largest and most substantial part of the book addresses how to actually trade options.
Along the way, you'll gain an in-depth understanding of:
Option trading is an important part of the financial landscape. This book will show you how to make the most of these profitable products, no matter what the market does.
Praise for Option Trading
"In this era of unprecedented volatility, it has become imperative to understand the intricacies of options markets. This book gives an unyielding trader's perspective on options trading, from the basics of option pricing to the finer points of risk management. I highly recommend it as the best book of its kind on the market."
—Peter Carr, PhD; Head of Quantitative Financial Research, Bloomberg LP, Director of the Masters in Math Finance Program, Courant Institute, NYU
"A no-nonsense instruction manual for becoming a professional options trader. This is not a theoretical account of what the author thinks markets ought to do, nor does it promise trading ideas so good you can ignore risk management, hedging, position repair, and other basic professional skills. It merely explains how professionals turn real ideas into real money."
—Aaron Brown, Risk manager at AQR Capital Management and author of The Poker Face of Wall Street
"With the release of Option Trading, Euan Sinclair has once again set a new higher standard for options literature and provides a welcome companion to his excellent Volatility Trading. Sinclair is a professional options trader and emphasizes that making profits among intelligent competitive traders requires techniques and processes that must lead to a definable, tractable, and executable edge. His most useful contribution to a field crowded with poor treatments is his insistence on not oversimplifying or waving away the option trading process because it takes accuracy, work, and thought. Yet Sinclair's clarity and technical mastery give focus where previous authors have wallowed in obscurantism to camouflage ignorance and lack of practical experience. Sinclair's Option Trading is the finest work on the subject available and makes all previous treatments obsolete."
—James N. Ward, Professor of Finance, The American University of Paris, and European Head of High Yield Investments, AXA Investment Managers–Paris

It was supposed to come with 32's from the factory but for some reason mine came with 28's. The amount of cobblestones and bad pavement I hit on the commute make me want something a bit softer.
Does anyone know...what is the widest tire I could put on without changing out rims??
