Dr. Margaret Yacobucci, geology, instructs Dr. Dean Eppler of NASA on the use of the tablet PC in the field.
NASA learning from BGSU geologists' digital mapping program
NASA landed in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado this summer. Geology faculty and students from BGSU were there to meet them.
Each summer, the geology department teaches its field course in Colorado and New Mexico. The course includes about two dozen undergraduate geology majors, two professors and two graduate assistants. During the roughly six-week course, the students learn a variety of techniques including digital mapping—using ruggedized tablet computers in the field to plot geological information directly onto digital images such as an aerial photograph or topographic map.
This year, the field course had an unexpected visitor: NASA. "You folks are the only program in the country doing this type of digital mapping," said Dr. Dean Eppler, a research scientist at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.
Eppler's mission is to design spacesuits and field equipment for NASA's mission to return to the moon in 2020 and land the first scientists on Mars in 2030. Unlike the Apollo moon missions of the late 1960s and early 1970s, which focused mostly on life sciences—survival of the astronauts on the lunar surface—the new missions will be focused mainly on geology. The goal is to establish a permanent facility on the moon, where astronauts will live for up to six months at a time and will need to extract lunar resources to survive.
A geologist by training, Eppler spent a day in the field with the BGSU geology group learning how the tablet PC works as a mapping tool in demanding mountain conditions, at elevations of 11,000 feet. He was enthusiastic about the ease of use, particularly the stylus pen used to draw geological information on the interactive screen of the computer.
Eppler explained the practical difficulties of working in spacesuits and the limited range of mobility of spacesuit gloves. Working on the lunar or Martian surface will require elaborate and expensive suit fabrics, a combination of hard and soft points that are hinged to allow human movement, and a cooling system, which he characterized as more difficult to regulate than the supply of breathable gas. The tablet computer could also display some of the spacesuit functions to the astronauts.
The stylus pen system used by the BGSU geology group is far more functional than other systems NASA has investigated, which require a keyboard. "Imagine typing with tennis balls on the tips of your fingertips," said Eppler, who was excited to see the BGSU tablet computers use a handwriting recognition program that transfers notes made with the stylus pen into printed text. This feature, combined with the differential Global Positioning System (GPS) and ArcGIS components of the program, would allow astronauts to annotate digital photographs of the lunar surface when taken in the field.
Bowling Green's field geology course first used computers and GPS in 1996, "and we have continuously updated and expanded the use of technology since then," said Dr. Jeffrey Snyder, co-director of the course.
"We hope to give the students an appreciation of the potential of computers to enhance field data collection," he said, pointing out that the acquired skills can be applied to many different career paths.
Geological research on the moon will be for far more than extracting the resources needed for astronauts to survive. The lunar soil contains a record of the solar wind (the stream of particles from the sun), which has implications for understanding Earth's climate and how space weather affects Earth-orbiting satellites. Lunar geology fills in several significant gaps in understanding the geological history of Earth and the early development of the solar system.
Why send people to the moon and Mars rather than robots? Eppler laughed and said: "Despite the success of the Martian rovers Spirit and Opportunity, they have only traveled seven kilometers in the past four years. In contrast, the final Apollo flight (Apollo 17) had two trained astronauts who accomplished more in three days."
"Many of the recent findings from Mars and the moon show significant similarities to the geology of Earth," added Dr. James Evans, geology, who has taught the field course the past 16 years. "It is tremendously exciting to see that we can use the same tools and methods to study extraterrestrial geology."
Eppler is trying to revive the field geology expertise that NASA used to have. Although the Apollo astronauts were test pilots by training, each had received more than 1,000 hours of geology instruction. They became so skilled, he said, that they actually corrected their Earth-bound flight controllers about which geological features they were observing. But with many of those astronauts and their trainers now in their 70s or 80s, much experience will soon be lost, he noted, suggesting half-seriously that the new class of astronauts be sent to the BGSU geology field camp for training.
Eppler also made the Bowling Green students an offer, saying he would help replace the leather cases used to carry the tablet computers with new ones made from decertified spacesuit materials.
Just another way of emphasizing the planetary aspect of the geosciences.

Re: Pre-emptive strike..
Their's some terrible names being bandied about recently. PAC MAN JONES is what Id call pushing the envelope. The team needs talent like no other, but Id hate it if they became like the Bengals. Who actually seem to invite troubled college players to their team. Fisher is better than that.

Re: Pre-emptive strike..
TO is older, slower, and coming off a torn ACL. Remember when Torry Holt blew out his knee? He wasn't ever quite the same after that.
Moss is younger, faster, and hasn't ever really been injured. Plus TO seems to think he's still a number #1 receiver which is also insane. Randy seems willing to be happy with whatever spot whichever team gives him.
And while both guys are outspoken individuals, TO's reputation as a locker room cancer reaches far wider than Randy's.

A Harris poll found that 81 percent of native-born Americans believe the schools should teach students to be proud of being American, compared to only 50 percent of immigrants who had become naturalized U.S. citizens. Only 37 percent of naturalized citizens (compared to 67 percent of native-born citizens) think our Constitution has a higher legal authority than international law.
The Pew Research Center reported in 2011 that, of all groups surveyed, Hispanics have the most negative view of capitalism in America -- 55 percent. This is even higher than the supporters of Occupy Wall Street.
The data do not support the notion that immigrants are social conservatives. Heather MacDonald of the Manhattan Institute points out that, "It is not immigration policy that creates the strong bond between Hispanics and the Democratic Party, but the core Democratic principles of a more generous safety net, strong government intervention in the economy, and progressive taxation."
The current level of immigration, even without amnesty, will add nearly 15 million new potential voters by 2036, a large share of whom will favor the left. To allow this to happen will make Republicans a permanent minority party.
Looking at the political motivation of the groups pushing higher immigration and amnesty, it's obvious that the Democrats promote large-scale immigration because it produces more Democratic votes. But why are some prominent Republicans pushing amnesty?
The pro-amnesty New York Times gleefully reported on Oct. 26 the front-page news that big-business leaders and Republican big donors are gearing up for a "lobbying blitz," backed up by money threats, to get Congress to pass amnesty. Big business wants amnesty in order to get more cheap labor and keep wages forever low, and that is a gross betrayal of the legal immigrants who hope to rise into the middle class and achieve the American dream.
The big donors poured $400,000,000 into the campaigns of losing establishment-backed Republican candidates in 2012. They would rather elect Democrats than conservative, social-issue Tea Party-type grassroots Republicans who don't take orders from the establishment.
If the Republican Party is to remain nationally competitive, it must defeat amnesty in every form. Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, summed it up: "I think it would be crazy for the House Republican leadership to enter into negotiations with (Obama) on immigration, and I'm a proponent of immigration reform. ... He's trying to destroy the Republican Party, and I think that anything that we do right now with the president on immigration will be with that same goal in mind, which is to destroy the Republican Party and not to get good policies."

Gordon Brown should be wary of backing Ken Livingstone
Full coverage of UK politics
A big day in the contest to be Mayor of London. The latest opinion poll to be published by the London Evening Standard shows a 10-point lead for Boris Johnson, the Tory candidate seeking to end Ken Livingstone's eight-year tenure of City Hall.
Cameron supports his candidate; Brown shouldn't
This is slightly down on the 12-point lead he registered a fortnight ago but still suggests he is maintaining the momentum he has shown from the outset.
Boris has 47 per cent support to Mr Livingstone's 37 per cent, with Brian Paddick trailing badly with 10 per cent.
Johnson's campaign may have started looking like a job but it is deadly serious now.
As Charles Moore wrote in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday, the symbolic impact of a Boris victory would be a significant boost for the Tories and for David Cameron.
It is, therefore, odd that Gordon Brown should so publicly have endorsed Livingstone, a politician he has disliked for most of his career. He recently lavished praise on the Mayor, applauding his "lifelong commitment to London" which had enabled him "to get so much done for Londoners". He called him "an inspirational figure in London, a crusading mayor, and one that has made a huge difference".
Yet when Mr Livingstone stood as an independent in 2000 against Frank Dobson, the official Labour candidate, Mr Brown accused him of being "anti-jobs" and "anti-business". Mr Brown added: "Some people might think Ken Livingstone is funny, but saddling London with him for four years is no laughing matter."
Mr Livingstone responded by saying it was the then chancellor's own policies that were threatening London jobs. "It is Gordon Brown who has taxed business through his high interest rate and high exchange rate policies," he said.Â
The interesting thing about London is that for all that it is seen as unusual because of its cosmopolitan nature, it is electorally representative of the nation as a whole. In the period from 1992 to 2007, the share of the vote of the main political parties has largely reflected their performance nationally.
The significant shift that there has been towards the Tories in the South has also been apparent in London. Last year, the Conservatives won a majority of the 32 boroughs.
If Livingstone does secure a third term it would be portrayed less as a Labour win than as a personal triumph for the mayor after the difficulties he has faced in recent months. On the other hand, a Livingstone defeat would confirm that Labour's fortunes are in decline, possibly terminally.
Ken Livingstone, after all, is probably the most high-profile Labour politician after Gordon Brown. If he gets turfed out of office, there will be many Labour MPs worried that they will not get back into parliament after the next election, now likely in 2010.

Find a cache in the Madison Parks! Geocaching is a popular outdoor "scavenger hunt" that uses a global positioning system (GPS) device and internet-published coordinates to locate a hidden physical cache. A physical cache may be a trinket or log book in a plastic container hidden under some leaves. Geocaching is an acceptable activity in the parks when all the guidelines are followed. Those interested in participating seek a hidden—not buried—physical cache. A waterproof container stores the trade item or logbook. For a letterbox cache, there is usually a logbook and rubber stamp. Participants mark their personal logbooks with the stamp from the letterbox, and use their own personal stamp to mark the letterbox's logbook. For a micro-cache, a small container such as a film canister is used.

Excellent veg-friendly restaurantPosted on 07 / 27 / 2014
I can't say enough about how much my husband and I enjoyed eating at Cafe Karibo. We tried four of their small plates and shared the veggie burger. There were so many tasty looking options for us that it was difficult to choose. Everything was excellent but the lentil plate and burger were really phenomenal. Service was top-notch and atmosphere was laid-back and comfortable. I would definitely recommend for veg and non-veg folks alike.

Gingrich in Mobile; Plus Bama Overview
When I woke up this morning, I blogged at CFIF about Newt Gingrich's appearance in Mobile last night. Read it here. Gingrich had lot of good lines.
That said, I think it is time to update the "lay of the land" blog I did earlier in the week. What I am seeing is an incredibly fluid race in Alabama. Since I wrote that blog post, Romney and/or his SuperPAC have been carpet-bombing Santorum with so many negative ads it boggles the mind. The Gingrich forces also have been attacking Santorum. Santorum's ads, less numerous, are the ones from a few weeks ago that merely feature news headlines on a black background that say things bad about or embarrassing to Romney. The other two candidates' ads seem to be coordinated to time with their campaign's messages of the week, but Santorum's so far do not. As for Romney's forces, they attack Gingrich not at all. They seem to recognize that a vote for Gingrich helps Romney, because otherwise nearly two of every three of those votes would likely go to Santorum -- so they are happy to tear down Santorum while leaving Gingrich alone.
In southern Alabama at least, Santorum also suffers from having no connections to the GOP party hierarchy at all. They're all either Romney people or Gingrich people. The Mobile County GOP chair, the impressively energetic Terry Lathan, is on the Gingrich delegate list. Former U.S. Rep. Sonny Callahan is Gingrich's chair for the southern half of the state. Longtime state Sen. Jabbo Waggoner is the state chair. As for Romney, he's been endorsed by former Gov. Bob Riley, and a large number (too many to list) of party poo-bahs or elected officials are also withthe Michigander. Santorum, for his part, relied on local Tea Party activists to put together his public rally.
Here's another odd factor. Unlike in Ohio, where blue-collar Democrats (Reagan Democrats) crossed over more fo Santorum than for Romney, the Alabama system of having no party registration may actually hurt Santorum. Why? Because, at least in the southern third of the state, it might actually cost him a lot of the rural voters he has been attracting in other states. Here's how it works: In rural areas down here, there still are vestiges of the "yellow dog Democrat" syndrome among some white conservatives, so that in local races the conservatives still run as Democrats. Meanwhile, in the "Black Belt" counties across the south-central part of the state (so named both for its black, loomy soil and for its black majorities), Santorum seems popular both with whites (who may be a minority of the population, but still have significant percentages) and with a fair number of culturally conservative blacks. But he won't get their votes. Why not? Because in both the white-majority and black-majority rural counties just north or northeast of Mobile, there are a lot of local races on the ballot, especially judgeships. The local judge is a particularly important person in those communities. And in those communities, all the action for the judgeships is in the Democratic primaries. People can vote in either party's primary, but they must choose one; they can't vote in both. In this case, a whole lot of them see the local race as the more important, because victory in the primary Tuesday is tantamount to final victory (because in lots of cases nobody has even qualified as a Republican for the fall ballot). So if they vote for judges in the local Democratic primaries, they can't vote for Santorum at the same time, because you can't vote in both party's events on the same day.
Remember how all the rural counties in Ohio went for Santorum? Well, he may not rack up those same sorts of numbers in Bama, for the reasons above.
On the other hand, Santorum really impressed people Thursday night at the dinner for the Alabama Policy Institute. I know several community leaders who went into the evening completely unsure of their leanings but who the next day told me they are now firmly with Santorum. Likewise, Gingrich had a good outing on Friday; I overheard a couple of people leaving the event saying they had entered only leaning to Gingrich but now they were decided in his favor.
As mentioned in an earlier post, Gingrich also has been laying the groundwork here for a while. While Santorum and Romney battled in the Rust Belt, Gingrich concentrated in the South. He was up with commercials here about five days before anybody else was.
Where all this leads is anybody's guess. Polls are all over the map. It's hard to tell what effect Santorum's huge win in Kansas today will have on voters' choices: Will it move Gingrich leaners back to Santorum? Will it halt Romney's march to supposed inevitability, and thus stop the bandwagon followers from climbing on?
And will Romney's failure to appear here (so far) hurt him, since Gingrich and Santorum both did multiple events in southern Alabama?
And I really don't have a good feel for what's going on in the rest of the state.
The sense I get is that a very large percentage of voters are still jumping back and forth in their own minds between candidates. Any of the three (but not Ron Paul) could win Alabama. It's going to be a heck of a ride.

Respond to Review of The Chicago Diner
by gildthatlily
Review: We recently moved outside of Chicago from Georgia and I had come across ads for the Chicago Diner in Vegetarian Times and VegNews a long time ago. My husband and I were both really excited about trying this place out. I ordered Country Fried Steak which was made from seitan, and it came with gravy, mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables mixed with a pesto sauce, and kale. My husband ordered a gyro which was also made with seitan and sweet potato fries. Everything was excellent. My country fried steak was thick and "meaty" and I also had a tasty Dark Horse Raspberry Ale. The gravy was creamy and delicious, and I was happy to have a side of vegetables that weren't bland and boring. The service was friendly as well. I ordered a strawberry lemon cupcake to go, and that was the only thing I wasn't incredibly impressed by. It was good, but the icing seemed a little oily. Overall, a very good experience.

Oftentimes, equine insect control seems like a never-ending battle. Flies continually gather around your horse's legs. Mosquitoes bombard anyone who enters the barn. A day on the trail can turn into an evening of tick removal. But there are simple steps you can take to control flies, mosquitoes, gnats, ticks, and other pests around your horse, barn, stable, pasture, and home.
Step One: Prevent Equine Insects
Step Two: Reduce Insect Exposure
Step Three: Protect Individual Horses
The Importance of Insect Control
Worse, many insects are carriers of potentially serious diseases. Flies are known to transmit typhoid, dysentery, and tuberculosis. Mosquitoes carry West Nile Virus and equine encephalitis. Ticks can spread Lyme disease. True, some insect-borne diseases have no effect on your horse. However, they can affect you and your family.
Because of their resilience, insect control may seem like a daunting task. However, working to eliminate suitable insect habitats, control the environment around your barn and pasture, and individually protect your horse will offer the best protection possible.

This bill text has not yet been received from the Government Printing Office.
Ted Cruz
[R, TX] Introduced on Jan 29, 2013
1/29/2013--Introduced.ObamaCare Repeal Act - Repeals the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, effective as of their enactment. Restores... Read More
This bill was introduced on Jan 30, 2013, in a previous session of Congress, but was not passed.
Date Introduced
Jan 29, 2013
This bill text has not yet been received from the Government Printing Office.
No organizations supporting yet.

I support The ObamaCare Repeal Act because...it is killing this country. The government was NEVER supposed to have the power of life and death of the people of this country. It is against the fundamental rights of the citizens of this country. It is a socialistic power of the government, and against the constitution.
I support The ObamaCare Repeal Act because Obamacare should never have been enacted as the law of the land in the first place.
I support S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because...the law was not enacted fairly, in my opinion. I believe the citizens should have had the chance to see and vote on the healthcare law. The entire healthcare industry has been flipped on its side, with promises broken. I can no longer see my surgeon, he has been my doctor for 16 years. So far, I don't see the benefits outweigh the current system. All we needed was an expansion of Medicaid for the low wage workers. Obamacare needs to be repealed so we can have a fair vote on a working healthcare system. I would vote for a healthcare bill that would not be controlled by the government, such as HR 2300.
I support S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because...I have a family that lives on one income. We aren't rich. We simply make it work. We had decent insurance with semi-affordable premiums and deductibles. Now we had to drop myself to ensure that our children would be covered. The premium went up, the deductibles went up and the coverage has gone down. It must be repealed. When did the few come to outweigh the many? The numbers have been disclosed and the same number of people that weren't covered before, will still not be covered. This plan has solved nothing and created more problems that this, or any generation, could fix. REPEAL!
I support S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because the law is causing serious harm to the economy. Only 4 states will be seeing lower average premium costs, in spite of Pres. Obama's promises (Heritage Action statistics, state by state, Nov. 8 newsletter ). And the bad news just keeps coming. He promised people could keep their plan if they liked it. Not true. The only logical course from here is to repeal it and replace it with a plan where BOTH PARTIES are involved in the final law. Obamacare was rammed through with virtually no thought as to how it was going to affect people or the economy.
I support S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because Ted Cruz has spoken better on this issue than I ever could. I believe the whole bill should be repealed as Ive stated so many times. As a Medicare Advantage recipient myself, I have seen costs for coverage go up and coverage getting worse. Longer waiting times for doctors, doctors working longer hours for less, people losing their jobs because employers can not afford to pay for their employees health insurance. Heading towards a single payer government plan is wrong. The Free marketplace should dictate the health insurance market.
I oppose The ObamaCare Repeal Act because...the ACA has done nothing but improve the lives of my family and friends. Stop wasting our time with frivolous bills that accomplish nothing.
I oppose S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because Senator Cruz should be spending more time improving the Affordable Care Act instead of wasting time and tax dollars trying to destroy it.
I oppose S. 177: ObamaCare Repeal Act because without Obamacare, millions of young Americans, including myself, wouldn't have health insurance. Obamacare gives millions of Americans a chance to access healthcare and not pass on the cost to people who pay for private insurance. The crux of this issue is that Republicans can't let go of the fact that a majority of Americans want this bill, it will benefit them by the millions, and that hospitals and health insurance companies, who have thrown millions of dollars at politicians, won't be turning grossly high profits on peoples' suffering.
I oppose S. 177 ("A bill to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care") because...this was already settled but the Supreme Court . Why are you wasting your time when there are many important issues before congress? We need to bring down heath care costs, not support the insurance and pharmaceutical companies. Here are some government run health insurance programs that function just fine: Medicare, VA, and your own congressional heath care package.
I oppose S. 177 ("A bill to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care") because...We all need health care and this is a solid beginning to achieve health care for all.
I oppose S. 177 ("A bill to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care") because to do so would be insane. Clearly Senator Cruz is out of touch with reality. The Supreme Court upheld the measure and that should be the end of the debate. If Republicans have nothing positive to offer, they should cede their positions to people who are interested in the welfare of all U.S. citizens. Please oppose this measure. Thanks.
1/29/2013--Introduced.ObamaCare Repeal Act - Repeals the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, effective as of their enactment. Restores provisions of law amended by such Acts.

IAN HENSCHKE, PRESENTER: The traditional brush fence is almost a symbol of South Australia, but it's now under siege. Detractors claim it's environmentally unsustainable, and it's also a favourite target of arsonists. But the brush fence defenders are fighting back. Leah MacLennan reports.
LEAH MACLENNAN, REPORTER: In the last six months, the Metropolitan Fire Service has recorded 50 brush fence fires around Adelaide. They've been hitting the headlines after one burnt down a house, nearly killing an elderly woman. And in just two weeks, nine brush fences in Golden Grove went up in flames.
HAGUE SHOWELL, AUSBRUSH PANELS: People are scared. And I think it's rightly so, with the publicity that's around and some of the fire damage that's been done, not only to brush fences but to cars and houses and all sorts of other things, people are scared.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Hague Showell has been installing brush fences for about 20 years, and although the rate of fires this year is half last year's rate, he says in the past few months he's been fielding an unprecedented number of calls from worried brush fence owners fearing a strike by arsonists. To defend those fences and his business, Hague Showell is trying to come up with a solution.
HAGUE SHOWELL: Over here, Leah, we've got some test panels which we've been working on, testing various retardants. This is an American import, which is one of the best on the American market. And it's rated for five years or 200 inches of rainfall. So it's a very hard product to give any sort of fire-proofing or rating to. And fire retardants, I believe, can only really be used in conjunction with other measures.
LEAH MACLENNAN: So what sort of other measures have you been looking at?
HAGUE SHOWELL: Well, we reckon the answer to it probably is a cheap alarm system, to firstly scare people away if they try to burn a fence, but secondly to alert neighbours and property owners to fact that their fence is being torched.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Mr Showell says the alarm system would be powered by a solar-charged battery. It would be triggered by a wire along the fence which would short circuit in a fire. Mr Showell says the industry still has a future because of brush fences' many benefits.
HAGUE SHOWELL: Behind a garden bed it doesn't tend to burn a fence in hot sun like an iron fence does. And, acoustically, people do notice when they take down a brush fence the increase in road noise. So it has a lot of properties going for it that people don't really appreciate. And the aesthetics - it's a beautiful natural fence.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Another person who can see the benefits of brush fencing is Clive Bowman. He's a farmer in South Australia's Mallee, the native habitat of the plant that's used to make brush fences.
CLIVE BOWMAN, BOWMAN BRUSH: Some years ago, we were being interviewed by an ABC crew in the local hotel and we looking at new ideas and concepts for the farming areas of the state. And a truckload of brush drove by and he said to me, "Why don't you grow brush?" So we did.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Early settlers in the Mallee used the brush as a poor man's fence. These days it's more likely to be seen in leafy Adelaide suburbs. It's also termite proof. But the method of harvesting the brush hasn't changed much since the early days. Mr Bowman says the industry is still based on a 19th Century hunter-gatherer system, but he's working on bringing it into the 21st Century.
CLIVE BOWMAN: The brush is taken from the wild currently, most of it is taken out of NSW. And it's not sustainable. In our area here, for example, we only have 4.5 per cent of our native bushland left. And to take brush from that is really criminal. So therefore, it has to move on and become a modern industry, an industry that is profitable and therefore - for it to be profitable, it has to be sustainable.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Clive Bowman's plan began with a plantation. Since then, he's developed a mechanical harvester and in this shed is a top secret machine which turns the brush into pre made panels. We can show the panels, but weren't allowed to film the machine, lest competitors get ideas. Mr Bowman says it could turn the local product into a global export.
CLIVE BOWMAN: Once upon a time, you could only have a brush fence if you lived in Adelaide, Melbourne or Sydney, because the fences were built onsite and you just transport the bundles there. But you can't transport the bundles overseas or into isolated areas, whereas we just put the fences on a pallet and export them wherever we like.
LEAH MACLENNAN: That's why he's been visited today by West Australian wheat belt farmer Ian Hall. Mr Hall hopes Clive Bowman's technology can be applied over the border, where increasing numbers of brush fence plantations are being put in.
IAN HALL, BRUSH FARMER: I think that we're lined up for a - quite an adventure. The Bowmans have got a very professional operation here. It's a unique operation with their mechanical panel manufacturing facility and their harvesting capability, with a mechanical harvester.
LEAH MACLENNAN: Mr Hall says most of the brush in Western Australia has been planted to deal with salinity problems, but he's hoping to turn it into a profitable industry.
IAN HALL: We're still going through what was primarily planted as a Landcare product, because of the environmental friendly aspects of the product, being able to grow in country where basically it's not suitable for mainstream agriculture. It lowers the watertable. It uses up a fair bit of water - around about 700 mm of rainfall.
LEAH MACLENNAN: 18 months ago, the State Government brought in laws to tackle the damage caused by brush fence fires. It's now illegal to build a brush fence less than three metres from a building. Hague Showell says that's a sensible law. But, as the fence hasn't committed the offence, he wants a crackdown on the criminals.
HAGUE SHOWELL: I think the Government could do a lot more. At the moment, they've certainly brung in some changes which are good. The three metre setback rule, I believe is good, and one that we've always supported before that was introduced. But I believe they could also bring in a reward to catch some of these people, because people are going out there deliberately setting alight to other people's property. And that's cars, hedges, houses -everything. And brush fences are an easy target.

And there's more to come, lots more, bluff after bluff, retreat after retreat, before one morning the papers report that Teheran has exploded its first nuclear device, perhaps one delivered atop a new missile.
This new Iranian president is a lot slicker than the bumptious fanatic he succeeded in office, which makes him all the more dangerous. He has the air of an experienced gambler with an ace up his sleeve. And he's playing his naive opponent the way an old fly fisherman would a great, big gleaming trout, biding his time till he reels that sucker in.
Once again he's "creating a calm environment" until the day a nuclear Iran is as impregnable as North Korea's brutal dictatorship, and just as capable of making trouble for its neighbors. As it already has around the world, from Beirut to Buenos Aires to Bulgaria, or wherever its terrorist network can strike. No wonder he smiles and smiles as the centrifuges spin and spin. Till one day we'll all wake up and wonder why we slept for so long.
People forget what a gradual, lulling process appeasement can be. It's not just one signature agreement like Munich but all the little cave-ins that went before it and the further surrenders that came after. We remember old Chamberlain in his frock coat and high collar proclaiming "Peace in Our Time" to cheers and applause, praise and bouquets, from a gullible nation delighted to hear that war had been avoided, unaware that it had been made certain. As weakness on the part of democracies always invites aggression.
Some understood what had happened. Even the French premier Edouard Daladier, made an accomplice to the sell-out at Munich, knew better than to proclaim victory. Greeted by much the same acclaim when he returned home, he could only turn to an aide, nod at the adoring crowd that greeted him at the airport, and whisper, "The fools!"
A few lonely observers did know better than to celebrate when mourning would have been more appropriate. To quote the opening sentence of a letter to the editor of the Manchester Guardian after the Munich Agreement had been announced to great fanfare, "The flowers piled before 10 Downing Street are very fitting for the funeral of British honour...."
One stubborn back-bencher in Commons named Winston Churchill did stand up to explain what had really just happened: "We have suffered a total and unmitigated defeat ... you will find that in a period of time which may be measured by years, but may be measured by months, Czechoslovakia will be engulfed in the Nazi regime. We are in the presence of a disaster of the first magnitude ... we have sustained a defeat without a war, the consequences of which will travel far with us along our road. ... And do not suppose that this is the end. This is only the beginning of the reckoning. This is only the first sip, the first foretaste of a bitter cup which will be proffered to us year by year unless by a supreme recovery of moral health and martial vigor, we arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time."
There was a time when a bust of Churchill still adorned the Oval Office. There was a time when an American president sought peace through strength -- and, against all the conventional unwisdom of his time, achieved it. Ronald Reagan is only a bright, shining memory now, three decades and a world ago. Today the country has a president who, for all his red lines and transient bluster, pursues peace through weakness. And the end result of his policy, if it can be described as anything as coherent as a policy, is likely to be as successful as appeasement usually is, that is, not at all.
It's not as if it can be said in defense of this administration that it knows not what it does. To quote its secretary of state just last month, even before the last whiff of sarin had dissipated outside Damascus, "this is our Munich moment," a moment when the West dare not remain "silent spectators to slaughter." And the result of all John Kerry's posturing is that we have become voluble spectators of the continuing slaughter in Syria and, perhaps soon enough, far beyond. No wonder Hassan Rouhani smiles and smiles.

Rebel With A Cause
K. Michelle says this of her upcoming debut album Rebellious Soul:
"I'm a rebel, a firecracker, I do what I want to do. My music is like that as well. I rebel against anything that society tries to use to keep us boxed in––racism, judgment, anything that makes you feel inferior as a woman."

Once again asking about developing the perfect nomad s&S for a himalayan adventure, am really struggling with the appropriate handlebars, i enjoy a fairly upright position due to a niggling back injury that has been a friend for more than 20 years. Also want to consider using a handlebar bag.

We can breathe a little easier tonight. Dr. Sholler's office from Michigan called this evening and wants us there next Monday. We'll do scans Tuesday and Wed and then have a consultation with her on Thursday to see what trial she has available that we can do. I just wanted to thank everyone for keeping us in your prayers especially these past 2 days and praying for us to be guided in the right direction on where to go next.
I hate the fact that Tristin's treatments are being postponed for 2 weeks, but praise God we have a plan in place now. It's always a little scary at first leaving your comfort zone, but I know that where ever we are, we're always in God's hands being watched over by Him.
Please pray that Tristin's disease will stay in check while we're waiting for the best possible plan to get him healthy again. I know that we can beat this. Tristin hates me saying stuff like this, but he is a true Rockstar. His incredible attitude and perseverance has been a beacon of light for me and has kept me sane through all this. He is truly my hero... love you son.
God Bless,

LatinaLista — The national trend of 'getting back to nature' doesn't just mean eating organic foods or simplifying our lives. It also means connecting with nature. Some will say they do that by going to a neighborhood park, running, or tending home gardens, but while all are examples of being outside there's only one way to do it that allows for total immersion with nature — visit a national park.
National parks are the one places where people really can get back to nature — breathing better quality air, hiking along trails —nature's roadways, seeing animals without the confines of a cage, hearing nature and learning about Latino history.
National parks not only preserve the nation's pristine examples of Mother Nature's finest works but they are also places preserving the contributions Latinos have been making to the United States before it became the Stars and Stripes. The unfortunate thing is because not many Latino families think of national parks as places to vacation or visit, most of us never learn about the early history of Latinos.
But this summer is different. Some popular Latina bloggers accepted a challenge from the The American Latino Heritage Fund (ALHF) of the National Park Foundation to take their families and visit a specific park and let the rest of the Latino community tag along with them — virtually, of course.
The American Latino Expedition kicked off August 11 with blogger Yvonne Condes of MomsLA.com. With her family beside her, Condes' assignment was to visit Mesa Verde National Park. Each day, she has been blogging and posting pictures of the amazing cliff dwellings in the park and the experience that really impressed her pre-teen boys — climbing a 32-foot ladder to get to the cliff dwelling.
[caption id="attachment_25727" align="aligncenter" width="230"] Latina bloggers who won the opportunity to be part of the American Latino Expedition[/caption]
"Three stories sounds like a lot, but once we were climbing the ladder, it wasn't intimidating at all (as long as we didn't look down). My boys who are almost 8 and 9 had no problem at all getting up the ladder and have been talking about it ever since," Yvonne Condes blogs.
The Condes' family adventure ends today (Aug. 14) but the American Latino Expedition goes on till the end of the month. The other bloggers taking readers on virtual state park tours are:
Kathy Cane-Murillo of Phoenix, founder of CraftyChica.com; Monique Frausto of Los Angeles, CA, creator of BlogsbyLatinas.com; Nicole Presley of Los Angeles, creator of Presley's Pantry and Denise Cortes of Riverside, CA, founder of Pearmama.com who will explore the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area from August 18-20.
Finishing up the tours with a visit to the Olympic National Park in Washington (state) from August 25-28 will be sisters and co-founders of BrownGirlsFly.com, Chelle Roberts of Chicago and Crystal Roberts of Orlando; Ana Serafin-Gil of Chicago, founder of TravelingLatina.com and Carol Cain of South Orange, NJ, founder of GirlGoneTravel.com.
While each 'blogger explorer' will be blogging about her experience, the conversation will be ongoing under the hashtag #ALEx13 on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest.
