Building a Peace Park
"I am become Death, the shatterer of worlds."
--Robert Oppenheimer quotes the Bhagavad-Gita after witnessing the first atomic explosion in the New Mexico desert in July, 1945.
It was the height of our nation's Cold War -induced nuclear fear--movies such as The Day After helped make Ground Zero a household word, and Marj Wunder was concerned about what the world was coming to. Nightmares of nuclear annihilation plagued adults and children. Horrific images of bombs that could lay waste to nations and leave the earth poisoned and dying were imprinted on our collective subconscious. Now that her own children were leaving home, Marj Wunder felt she finally had time to do something.
"I'm not assertive or really an organizer type person," says Marj. But she did want to make a difference in whatever way she could. So in 1983 she went to a meeting in Minneapolis for people interested is commemorating the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. She felt a little nervous going to an unfamiliar neighborhood at night to meet with strangers, but it seemed important to attend. Especially since she had just learned that her husband was being sent on business to Hong Kong, and the two of them would have the opportunity to visit Japan.
The meeting was sponsored by Friends for a Non-Violent World, which was one of a coalition of groups that planned the yearly commemoration of the nuclear bombing of the two Japanese cities. In a previous meeting this ad hoc committee had prepared a wish list of possible materials and activities for the observance from August 69. One was that a small amount of dirt or some seeds could be brought back from Hiroshima to be used in a ceremonial tree-planting or in the dedication of an international children's peace garden. Marj felt she could help here.
Marj's impending trip also inspired her to start carrying around a notebook. She asked Minnesotans to write little messages to the people of Hiroshima. She didn't know what she was going to do with the book when she got to Japan, but she felt it was important for ordinary U.S. citizens to communicate with ordinary citizens of Japan.
Marj and her husband, Hal, got to Japan on the evening before Palm Sunday and attended a service at the Hiroshima Peace Cathedral the next day. After the service, a gentleman approached the Wunders and upon discovering their interest, offered to take them to an ancient rock garden near their hotel that was very close to the epicenter of the nuclear blast that leveled the city in 1945. The garden had been reconstructed and was full of blooming flowers. It made Marj think of Minneapolis, and her mission to bring back some part of Hiroshima for a commemorative garden back home.
That afternoon the Wunders visited the Peace Museum, an experience they found difficult and moving. They were the only Westerners. A large model in the center of the museum displayed the city before the bombing and indicated where the bomb went off above the city. The remaining exhibits displayed the results--unadorned, factual, and graphic.
More than 100,000 people ultimately lost their lives due to the Hiroshima uranium bomb alone. Many died in the initial explosion, which was hot enough to melt stone and sent out a shock wave that smashed the pillars of buildings into the earth like pegs and burned the outlines of vaporized people onto walls. Thousands of men, women, and children drowned in Hiroshima's rivers, trying to slake the unnatural thirst brought on by the radiation poisoning. Thousands more fled the city in a stupor of pain and disbelief, splintered glass and wood from their houses lodged in their flesh. They walked in silence, and held their arms out from their bodies zombie-like to avoid chaffing third-degree burns. Tens of thousands died with little anesthesia in makeshift outdoor clinics. In subsequent years thousands more would die from leukemia and other illnesses associated with radiation poisoning.
The day after this education on nuclear war, the Wunders went back to the Peace Park and Museum with the book filled with messages, poems, and art from Minnesotans. Marj still wasn't sure what to do with the book, so she went into an office and was eventually directed to an archivist at the Hiroshima Peace Culture Foundation.
The archivist was Miyoko Matsubara, and she was very interested in the book Marj brought from Minneapolis. Miyoko had been severely injured when the bomb was dropped in 1945. She had belonged to a brigade of junior high school students building fire breaks in the city in anticipation of an incendiary bombing. At the time, allied forces had been fire bombing Japanese cities with conventional weapons. While over 200,000 people lost their lives to the two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan, over one million men woman and children were burned to death in firestorms caused by "conventional" incendiary bombing. As it turned out, of course, Hiroshima received the nuclear bomb. Disproportionate numbers of school-aged children were killed by this blast due to their service on the firebreak brigades.
Miyoko Matsurbara escaped with her life, but had spent the first years after the war hating and fearing Americans. She gradually learned, however, that many in the U.S. were equally concerned about war and the potential for the suffering of innocents. Eventually, she spent time in the United States, where she made American friends and learned English. When she heard Marj Wunder's idea for a peace garden in Minneapolis, she immediately called an official in Hiroshima City Hall's International Affairs Office who called the director of the Peace Museum. Later that afternoon, Miyoko translated as best she could for Marj, the Museum Director, and his assistant.
"I was very nervous by this point because I hadn't anticipated this kind of meeting and I couldn't tell how I was coming through," says Marj. She was intimidated at first by the stern, nonexpressive faces of the officials, but the director registered more enthusiasm when she showed him her book and various flyers and programs for commemorations in the Twin Cities. "He became very interested because he didn't realize that we had such observances of the nuclear bombing anniversaries in American cities."
Then Marj got into the part about the peace garden and the director began gesturing with his hands. Miyoko said that he wanted to know how large and object Marj was looking for. "I had been thinking of a few seeds or a vial of dirt, and I thought, "Oh my! I'm really getting in deeper here.'"
It dawned on Marj that the diplomatic thing to do was to arrange for further negotiations, since she didn't feel she had the authority to speak for Minneapolis or the United States. She offered to report back to her committee and the City of Minneapolis and have further communication done through the mayors' offices of the two cities. The Hiroshima officials agreed and insisted on taking pictures before Marj and Hal dashed off to make their bullet train to Tokyo. "What have I done?" Marj thought, as they sped toward Tokyo. "Not only have I done a sort of pushy American thing myself, but I told them our mayor would be involved. I don't even know the mayor!"
But Marj also marveled at how an ordinary citizen venturing a few tentative steps can find herself in the middle of an international process. It made her reflect on her reluctance to come to Hiroshima, and how she felt insecure asking people to write in her book. How she had been nervous about going to the Friends for a Non-Violent World meeting, thinking that the activists would "think I'm naive."
Back in the U.S., it took Marj almost a year to figure out what to do. "I couldn't just go knocking on the mayor's door." Then she discovered that her friend Larry was going to Japan to visit his son who was an exchange student there. Larry and his son would be touring the nation for a month and planned on visiting Hiroshima. As importantly, Larry had worked with Jan Hively, who was deputy to mayor Donald Fraser at the time. What better way to conduct business than to get Larry to personally deliver a message from Mayor Fraser to the mayor of Hiroshima.
So Marge told Deputy Mayor Hively her full story, and Hively thought Mayor Fraser would be delighted to help out. As per Hively's instructions, Marj and some others on the Hiroshima/Nagasaki commemoration committee drafted a letter to the mayor of Hiroshima, which Fraser used as a draft in writing the official communication. Larry hand delivered the letter from Mayor Fraser to the International Affairs Office in Hiroshima and, like Marj, was graciously received.
The next thing Marj knew, Jan Hively was on the phone asking her to come downtown at once. Mayor Fraser had received a telegram from the mayor of Hiroshima, who was preparing to send a relic stone for the "Peace Garden of Minneapolis." "I thought, what have I done now?" says Marj. "There really wasn't a peace garden as yet."
Marj and some others from the Hiroshima Nagasaki Commemoration Committee went to City Hall and met with Mayor Fraser and Deputy Mayor Hively. "So what do you people intend to do with this stone?" asked Fraser. The Commemoration Committee was just an ad hoc assemblage of peace activists that regrouped every year. It didn't have any funds, long-term plans, or even any real identity. Marj took it upon herself to turn the question around. "Well, Mr. Fraser, the stone is a gift to the mayor and the city of Minneapolis. What can you do with it?"
The mayor was stumped. Since the parks are not owned or administered by the City of Minneapolis but by the Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Board, he didn't have authority to place monuments in any of the city parks. Fraser therefore assigned Bob Knight to be a liaison between the ad hoc Commemoration Committee and the Park Board. Meanwhile, Mayor Takeshi Araki Of Hiroshima was probably unaware that he was giving a stone to a group that really wasn't a group, to be placed in a park that didn't exist, and even if it did exist, really wasn't under the jurisdiction of Minneapolis anyway.
Mr. Knight talked to Mary Lerman, the Park Board horticulturalist, about possible sites for the stone. At the time, the rock garden by Lake Harriet was being recreated following its rediscovery after tornado damage in 1981 (it had become overgrown with a grove of oak trees). A designer was busy replacing stones as they might have existed near the banks of the St. Croix, where they came from back when the garden was created in 1929. Marj went to a Park Board meeting in February of 1985. She was nervous because at the time "peace" was a politically charged word and she was afraid the issue of dedicating a stone to commemorate the first nuclear strike might be controversial.
As it happened, Park Board Commissioner Nancy Anderson felt a particular pull for Marj's cause; Anderson was born on August 6, 1945, the very day Hiroshima was bombed. Nancy motioned to accept the proposal immediately so the stone could be dedicated by the fortieth anniversary of the bombing. (Later, Ms. Anderson would become even more involved in peace work and would represent Donald Fraser in the World Conference of Mayors for Peace in Hiroshima.) The Board voted, and the proposal to put the stone in the rock garden was accepted that evening.
Mary Lerman, the Park Board horticulturalist, worked hard to find an appropriate setting for the stone between February and the commemoration in August. She had been studying designs of Japanese foot bridges and came upon one that incorporated a stone post similar in size and shape to the stone Minneapolis was receiving. The foot bridge was designed with two ninety-degree turns in the middle, which according to Japanese lore, prevent evil spirits from following a pedestrian across the bridge. Evil spirits, apparently, travel in straight lines only.
Meanwhile, Mary and Marj were also busy raising money to have the bridge built, and figuring out how the stone was going to get to Minneapolis to begin with. The City of Hiroshima graciously offered to inscribe the stone with the word "peace" in both Japanesese and English, but the transport of the stone was Minneapolis's problem, or more accurately, the problem of the scattering of people now involved in placing the stone in the park. Fortunately, Roger Kramer, an executive with Japan Airlines and a member of the Japanese American Society in Minneapolis, offered to arrange for the shipping of the stone.
Gradually things came together. Mary obtained a matching fund through People for Parks, and Marge matched $1,000 with donations from the peace community. The stone was shipped, the bridge installed, and on the day before the commemoration, sod was rolled out in this newly renovated section of the rock garden. Thanks to pro bono work by a Minneapolis public-relations company, the event was well covered by newspaper and broadcast news.
On August 5 at 6:15 p.m. Central Time, exactly forty years after the bomber Enola Gay dropped a uranium fission bomb on Hiroshima, Mayor Fraser and Park Commissioner Patricia Baker officiated at the ribbon cutting of the rock garden peace bridge. A stone dislodged from the balustrade of the Motoyasu Bridge by the blast in downtown Hiroshima posted the entrance to the footbridge.
Thanks to Marj and many other behind-the-scenes activists, the relationship that began in 1985 with the placement of the relic stone has developed into the formal connection known as the Minneapolis/Hiroshima Friendship Cities Inc. Through cooperation of the St. Paul/Nagasaki Sister City Committee, the park has also received a relic stone from Nagasaki, which has been posted on the opposite end of the bridge from the Hiroshima stone. Marj likes to remind people that what has come forward with the gift and placement of these stones is as much about a shared vision of a peaceful future as it is a reminder of past horrors.
In 1988 Marj and her husband visited Japan again. This time they prepared two albums of news coverage, and Minneapolitans' personal reflections on the peace bridge and the events surrounding it. They brought one album to Hiroshima and one to Nagasaki, and were warmly received in both cities.
Mayor Motoshima of Nagasaki gave letters for Marge to deliver to the two Twin City mayors inviting them to participate in the Hiroshima/Nagasaki World Conference of Mayors for Peace. Since then, both Minneapolis and St. Paul have sent representatives to the quadrennial conference in 1989, 1993, and 1997. In 1997, Marj helped represent Minneapolis at the convention. As she told Hiroshima citizens representing the Japanese contingent of the the Minneapolis/Hiroshima Friendship Cities, "We're all just 'ordinary' people attempting to do 'extra-ordinary' things."
This August, the rock garden will be officially renamed The Lyndale Park Peace Garden. It is the only park in the United States that has relic stones from both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The park has become symbolic of not only peace, but the ability of ordinary people half a world apart to come together for a common goal.

One of the most righteous albums to ever bear the name of King Britt – a selection of spiritual jazz tracks from the 70s, all of which show a definite inspiration for Britt's recent work in the 21st Century! There's no remixes or remakes here – and the collection features all original gems from a few decades back – stretched out and cosmic grooves from some of the leading lights of the soul jazz underground in the post-Coltrane years! Most numbers are obscure tracks licensed from smaller indie labels – brought together beautifully with a sense of depth and darkness that goes way beyond the usual King Britt groove. Titles include "Space Spy" by Grachan Moncur III, "Beyond Yourself" by Brother Ahh, "Scorpio Libra" by Eddie Henderson, "Kawaida" by Herbie Hancock, "Ekim" by Michal Urbaniak, "Yebo" by Mtume, "Conviction" by Dane Belany, "Naima" by Doug & Jean Carn, "The Time Now For Change" by Phil Ranelin, "Moving Pictures 4 The Ear" by Don Cherry, and "Encounter" by Flora Purim. © 1996-2016, Dusty Groove, Inc.
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
We have only one grade for non-new CDs at Dusty Groove — "Used CD". This grade is somewhat all-encompassing, but we choose it because we try to offer Used CDs in the best shape possible. All of our Used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. If you purchase a Used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly — and if it does not, then you may return it for a full refund.
With our Used CDs, you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks — clean, and not dirty at all. You can also expect the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves — putting fresh cases on Used CDs we handle) — and you can expect the booklet to be in good shape, unless noted otherwise. We will list any specific details/defects underneath the item — so look for notes on cutout marks in the case, stamps on the barcode, or details like that.

Thanks for checking. Those are all pretty insignificant errors. Nothing that would cause the site not to display or work properly. Sometimes it baffles me what that validator considers to be an "error".
I think the IE7 problem is most likely going to be the way I padded the menu

I'm now the proud owner of a candy red NWT. It was originally specced with a DualDrive setup but my reuqested STIs made that hub an issue. The spec ended up being a triple setup, 53/39/30 with 11-34.
Done some riding on it thus far and I'm already thinking I need to change it to 55/44/30. I'd go bigger than the 55 actually but I don't think it's possible.
With the 44 I think I could more comfortably ride in the middle ring on flat terrain. How its setup now, the big ring is the most comfortable on flat terrain and I'd rather that be the middle for issues of crosschaining and full cassette use
Curious to know what you guys have yours setup as though. Would appreciate it if you could share
And here is a pic for the hell of it

Wow this is amazing //><//
Gaaah this is so amazingly prety I can't.. even.. comprehend. The photo is superb, the lighting poses and the background all fits, and the cosplayers are very very pretty and has done an awesome work on their cosplays. I am just.. stunned.. Fangirl moment much?
So amazing!
Very well done, exquisite detail. I love the color coordination right down to their makeup and nail polish, a detail too many models miss. I also love that the models are not fixated on the camera and instead each has her own visual fixation, which makes this a much more natural image and more tantalizing to the imagination. The pipe is a nice touch to make one look older or superior, although I think otherwise they are very similar in age and status. The pipe leads one to imagine she is dominant in this relationship, which again helps build the story. The scene is very rich and complete, and the preparation and time commitment shows. I do not know the background story or the characters, but this image makes me want to learn more. Thank you for posting this!

Over the last several decades, digital technologies have been transforming just about every industry. But few have been as disrupted by the dramatic advances in technology as the media industries. Everything seems to be changing at once, from the way content is produced and delivered, to the sources of revenue and profits.
I've been closely following this technology-based transformation of media for a number of reasons. First is my personal experience with disruptive innovations in the IT industry. Unlike other industries which I might follow from afar, I'm an everyday consumer of media, spending a considerable part of my day on its various offerings, including TV, newspapers, magazines and the Web.
In addition, I've been a member of the advisory board of USC's Annenberg Innovation Lab (AIL) since it was founded in 2010 to study the impact of technology and cultural changes on the media industries. And, since last September I've been involved with HBO as strategic advisor on innovation. Within media, I'm particularly interested in the evolution of television, not only due to my recent HBO affiliation but because, for over a decade, TV has been the source of much of the entertainment I consume.

My son is 4 months old and has had some congestion for a while. His eyes have been a little watery and he has been sneezing a lot and coughing some. He doesn't have a fever and seems to be in a pretty good mood when he is awake. I assume he has a cold or possibly allergies. I am using nose drops and a humidifier which is pretty much all I can do according to the doctor's office. I noticed today that he slept quite a bit. He took a 2 hour nap in the morning, a 3 hour nap in the afternoon, was awake for about 1 1/2 hours, then took another 1 1/2 hour nap. He woke up at 7 but fell asleep again at his normal bedtime, around 815. It makes me uneasy when he sleeps a lot, but he seems fine when he is awake, so I assume he just needs the extra sleep so his body can fight off whatever he has?
Sleeping a lot because of a cold?
Comments (4)
My son is 10 weeks old and has had some nasal congestion for the past week. Today is the first day that he has slept a lot. I don't think he is sleeping that well at night when he does sleep. I feed him at around 10 and put him downn. He usually wakes sometime between 1 and 3 to eat an then goes back to sleep until between 6 and 7. He was up till about 9 and then slept till after noon. He has been asleep again for the past couple of hours. Although he does stir occasionally. He eats well and has regular wet/poopy diapers. He is strictly breastfed. I know they always say to never wake a sleeping baby. It's definitely hard as a ftm to let him sleep. Of course I am fighting the seasonal flu virus and all I want to do is sleep as well. So I guess that is what he is doing.

Victoria Beckham is married to soccer superstar David Beckham and often confuses herself with royalty. Victoria Beckham, AKA Posh, rose to fame with the Spice Girls before marrying David and having two adorable little boys. Spice Girls reunion tour Posh
Never one to mince words, Mel B gave her unfiltered opinion of her former Spice Girls bandmate Victoria Beckham during an interview with the "Allegedly With Theo Von and Matthew Cole Weiss" podcast.
The "America's Got Talent" judge was asked if she's surprised that Posh has "gone on to become like royalty," given her luxe lifestyle with husband David Beckham. In reply, Mel stated, "They've worked so hard for it. Victoria and her fashion line- she eats, lives and breathes it. They deserve a lifestyle like that. She's very down to earth. She's just a little bit of a b*tch to people, but she has a great sense of humor. We can all be b*tches at some point."

Highlighting some of the finest females of our day, Glamour magazine just announced the honorees for the 25th Anniversary Women of the Year Awards, slated to take place on November 9th at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
The ceremony will open with Amy Schumer before lovely ladies like Reese Witherspoon, Caitlyn Jenner, Misty Copeland and Victoria Beckham are all showcased for their success in breaking barriers for their gender.
Maintaining her status as one of fashion's hottest names, Victoria Beckham is featured on the front of Vogue Australia's August 2015 issue.
The former Spice Girl looks amazing in her Louis Vuitton ensemble teamed with a tousled hairdo as Patrick Demarchelier snaps up photographs.
It's hard to believe they've already been married for sixteen years and over the weekend David and Victoria Beckham commemorated the milestone with some quality family time.
On Saturday (July 4), Posh took to her Twitter account to announce her anniversary along with a photo including David, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper.
Everything she touches turns to gold it seems, and Victoria Beckham told Fern Mallis that she's pleased with the way things have turned out for her.
During her chat this week, Posh explained, "I've achieved a lot in 41 years and I like how 41 feels. I feel good. I don't like how it sounds too much. It doesn't sound great but you know I'm proud of everything I've achieved. I've got four incredible children, a wonderful life with my husband. I couldn't have done much more in 41 years so I'm okay with it."
Taking full advantage of the beautiful weather, Victoria Beckham stepped out of her hotel in New York City dressed to the nines today (June 4).
The 41-year-old designer wore a white top with a pink poppy print skirt from her Spring 2015 collection as she scurried off to plug her forthcoming Pre-Spring/Summer 2016 lineup in the Big Apple.
Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center was bursting with beautiful people last night (June 1) as the 2015 CFDA Fashion Awards got underway.
Pretty posers like Petra Nemcova, Gigi Hadid, Hannah Davis, Lily Aldridge, Joan Smalls, Bella Hadid, Karlie Kloss, Chrissy Teigen and Erin Fetherston all got gussied up for the red carpet strut while adorable actresses like Vanessa Hudgens, Katie Holmes, Nina Dobrev, Brittany Snow, Emmy Rossum, Amanda Seyfried, Kim Kardashian and January Jones brought plenty of eye candy.
He's a big fan of the finer things in life, and David Beckham treated himself to a lavish weekend in Marrakech, Morocco as he embraced his new identity as a 40-year-old man.
Joined by his stunning wife Victoria, sister Joanne, son Brooklyn, pal Eva Longoria and Spice Girls Melanie C and Emma Bunton, the English soccer stud thoroughly enjoyed his time at the Amanjena Restort.

I am trying to access a particular ListView row's View so that I can change the background colour when the selects a radio group button option.
I have extended the BaseAdapter and setup the view in the overridden getView method. By keeping track of the values at the position, the recycled views are all handled correctly and my background colour is shown correctly when getView is called.
My problem is that I want to change the background colour immediately when the user clicks the radio button. I was using something like this:
public void onCheckedChanged(RadioGroup radioGroup, int radioId)
View viewRow = (View) radioGroup.getParent();
But I don't think this is advisable, and it does not appear to work as expected (other views are also changed). For some reason, even though I also set the colour in getView, it seems to be ignored when using the above method.
Is there a good way I can access the View from this callback?

New London — A 69-year-old city man who spent 20 years in prison for molesting young girls in the 1980s was arrested again on Thursday after he allegedly tried to lure a 15-year-old girl into his vehicle.
Police charged Abbot DiNoto, also known as John Salvatore DiNoto Jr., of 44 Orchard St., No. 1, with criminal attempt to commit risk of injury to a minor and second-degree breach of peace.
At 2:46 p.m., police said, the teenage girl was walking home from school in the area of Bank Street and Braemer Place when DiNoto stopped his car so she could cross the street. The girl told police DiNoto pulled up beside her and began to honk his horn. He then allegedly rolled down his window, asked if she wanted a ride home and motioned for her to get into his vehicle.
Police said DiNoto drove away quickly after the girl yelled at him to leave her alone. The girl reported the incident to her father, who in turn called police. Police said the girl provided a description of the vehicle and its license plate number and said the same man had offered her a ride several weeks prior to Thursday's incident.
Police say DiNoto fits the description of a man involved in similar incidents reported in September in New London and Waterford. The investigation into those incidents continues, and more charges are possible, Deputy Chief Peter Reichard said.
DiNoto is listed on the state's sexual offender registry and remains on strict probation, having been sentenced to an additional nine months in prison in 2011 for a series of probation violations after his release from prison in 2009.
Less than a year after his release, a search of DiNoto's apartment by probation officials turned up sexually explicit materials. Two months later, though conditions of his probation mandated a 9 p.m. curfew, he was stopped by police at 4:05 a.m. with a prostitute in his vehicle.
Among other incidents reported by probation in 2011 were his visits to Ocean Beach and Harkness Memorial State Park in 2010, places from which he is banned because they are places where children congregate. At one point, he told his probation officer that while at his counselor's office, he ran into one of the victims from the sexual assault case and gave her a big hug and a kiss, according to court records. He is also banned from having any contact with his victims.
His original convictions stem from the rape of a 12-year-old girl on a boat at the Niantic marina and the sexual assault of another victim on multiple occasions and in several local towns.
He was convicted of multiple counts of both first-degree sexual assault and second-degree sexual assault of a minor in 1991, court records show.
Police said DiNoto is being held in lieu of a $100,000 bond pending an appearance in New London Superior Court.

ST. MARYS, Ga. (AP) -- While the Navy is considering allowing
women to serve aboard submarines, the wives of submariners are
warning against having male and female crew members serve in such
small spaces.
Jennifer Simmons' husband serves on a submarine at Kings Bay, Georgia.
She says the proposal is asking for sexual harassment
Others say the plan could cause wrecked marriages.
The Navy says it could decide on the issue soon, bringing women aboard subs as early as 2011.
Supporters say the Navy brought female sailors onto surface combat ships sixteen years ago and what worked on ships also will work on submarines.
They say allowing women on submarines is a matter of fairness and equal opportunity.

The key is for one to determine one's exit strategy, before doing anything. After that, then one needs to evaluate that strategy to determine whether s/he can execute that strategy well under these market conditions.
Some buy-and-hold strategies work better than others; similarly, some flip strategies work better than others. Not every strategy will work in every market. So, one needs to educate one's self to ensure that s/he will be able to piece together the right strategy for a particular market. Of course, for him/her that strategy might be to wait awhile longer before striking.

Horrible design
My wife just purchased two bottles, when I saw the design I didn't like it, it looked like the top would come off too easy and or would wear quickly. At the very least I expected them to work at the start but they did not. After filling each bottle up and turning them upside down they both began to drip. They are both going back....terrible design.
i question the negative review here. i have six liberty bottleworks bottles. i absolutely love'em -hence buying six of them. i keep one in my gym bag. one in my briefcase -great when i travel. one my kitchen counter for grabbing and going. one in my golf bag. one in soccer bag. one for my son. i previously owned sigg bottles, plastic bottles and other stainless steel bottles. much prefer liberty hands down. yes, i love the art work. more importantly, i appreciate the functionality. the quarter turn caps are easy to use. the cap does require that you make sure all three little knobs seat in a the cap before turning to close. i've only experienced one leak -the first time i used a bottle. i do have some reservation about the long-term durability of the three knobs. i've banged the bottle against tables, doors and dropped. i find them much less likely to dent than sigg bottles. no issues with denting. i really like the wide mouth of these bottles -much easier to drink, fill and add ice cubes. again, i seriously question the negative review here. checkout other reviews from around the web. i own six bottles and love'em. a couple of friends with i've shared my fondness for liberty bottles have since bought bottles as well and they feel like i do. perhaps the negative reviewers received a defective bottle.
also, like to support USA manufacturing!
FAIL. Your American company laid off 15 workers and then rehired back new workers for cheaper. Good American company
Don't waste your money!
Beverages always taste like aluminum - yuck. Bottles dent easily and lose volume capacity - yuck. Have to mark the bottle or open it to see what's inside - yuck. Not easily compatible with some standard water filtration systems. Forget the "recycled aluminum" this bottle helps the planet line - if they don't make a product worth having then why make it? Go buy two of the standard nalgene bottles for about the price of this one.
Totaly agree, total fail. My 3 year old dented the bottle and managed to make it leak after 5 minutes. Smells horrible also. Way to much money!! FAIL
Great bottle!
I am the rep and used 5 of them over the 4th weekend car camping and fishing. Held milk, juice, wine, water, and some powered Gatorade. Was great to not have to haul all the larger containers around and saved a ton of space in the cooler. The top never leaked, not in the car, cooler or pack which was a huge plus.

This product was a total fail, it dents easily, caps always leak, tastes like aluminum no matter what you do, smells horrible inside, and my graphics are already coming off. If you call cusgtomer service you get some guy named Ryan who sounds like a used car salesman and says um too much. They could care less about recycled its about money bottom line.

Currently my shower floor is unlevel and therefore doesn't drain properly. Is it possible to pour self leveling concrete on top of the existing tiles and then retile the whole thing? If so what can I use to extend the drain or prevent the concrete from going in it? Also, is there a particular way to make sure the water will flow to the center, where the drain hole is, when i'm all done tiling?
- Forum >
- Flooring & Stairs >
- shower floor retile questions
You want to be careful with 'leveling' a shower floor, for water doesn't travel in the direction you want it to if it is level. I think I know what you're asking for, though. First off, you want to make sure you have a surface to 'level' that will not release your mortar bed, ie: ceramic tiles can release mortar if the mortar is applied to the top of them. Removal of the existing tiles is best, but you can coat the tiles with an adhering compound. The best mixture of a bed to create a slope that I have found is a 'dry' mixture. Actually has a very little water content, added to portland and sand. This is good for areas needing an inch or more of 'leveling'. Careful with self leveling products in this regard. You don't want your leveler to run down your drain, and believe me, you'll lose all of your leveler that way. A ABS or PVC pipe fitted inside the drain, best if a little bigger diameter that the drain, works very well. You can get drain extentions from a plumbing cintracting outfit. Much success with your project..

Comments about California Baby Hair Conditioner Aromatherapy, Calendula, 8.5 fl oz:
I was doubtful about this conditioner because it has a thin consistency and didn't seem like it would do much as I applied it -- but in fact it made my hair detangle easily in the shower, and my hair dried shiny and soft. Zero irritation to my sensitive scalp. Been using it regularly for a couple of weeks with excellent results.It is not a deep conditioner and probably not a good choice for extremely dry or coarse hair. It's great for my fine, wavy hair, though, and I have already purchased my next bottle.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Good, at first...
By Carrie
from FL
See all my reviews
I originally purchased this item because my scalp had patches of REALLY awful eczema. It was so itchy and scaly from another hair care product that I knew I had to find something to soothe my scalp. I went on the hunt and found this in the baby care aisle. I was looking for something fragrance-free and natural and thought this was what I was looking for. I used it for the first time and noticed that it had a different consistency than regular conditioner, but I figured that was normal. I used it both in the shower and as a leave-in conditioner. The first time use was great. It started to soothe the scalp. I used a second time, which I noticed wasn't as good as the first. It seemed to lose it's effectiveness. After that, it caused scalp acne. I was getting nasty, itchy bumps. The only reason this happens to me with any hair care product is too many additives. It usually happens with so-called "moisturizing" products and it clogs the hair follicles on my scalp. It went directly into the garbage after that. I won't buy this product again.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Makes hair soft and smooth
By Yammy
from Salt Lake City, UT
I use this with the California Baby Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash on a daily basis. I have allergies to fragrance and a particular foaming agent in most skin care products. My dermatologist recommended this product. I like the smell of lavender and it is somewhat strong. This conditioner can be used as a wash out or leave in. I comb it through my hair after I wash my hair and leave it in. I use more on the ends and very little, so it lasts a very long time. I have fine hair. It's not sticky or heavy and you can choose how much conditioning your own hair needs.

After the Cali baby shampoos left my girls hair a tangled mess I was really hoping this would help. I had to use a whole palm full of it just to get enough to work through my 2 year olds hair. It did not help detangle at all. Very dissapointe in this product as I wanted to switch to better all natural product for the kids. I will have to keep looking.
Love it!

Great Conditioner!
By Lancey
from Ohio
This was recommended by our dermatologist for our daughter who has a form of dermatitis that makes her scalp sensitive.
After shampooing, massage a generous amount evenly through hair; leave on 2-4 minutes. Rinse. For extra conditioning or to soothe dry irritated scalp, do not rinse out.

BANI WALID, Libya (AP) — Libyan revolutionary fighters are struggling to regroup outside the loyalist stronghold of Bani Walid after being driven back by fierce resistance from followers of Moammar Gadhafi.
There were no signs Saturday of anti-Gadhafi forces mobilizing for another assault on the mountain enclave, about 90 miles (140 kilometers) southeast of Tripoli. The fighters withdrew Friday after facing sniper fire and shelling from loyalists units holding strategic positions above the valley entrance to the town.
Meanwhile, more families fled Bani Walid.
The fighting coincided with another revolutionary offensive into Gadhafi's hometown Sirte on the Mediterranean coast, where there were stiff counterattacks by backers of the old regime.

Mount Bachelor to open downhill bike park on Sept. 13
BEND, Ore. — Mount Bachelor's new Downhill Bike Park will open for its one-month season beginning Sept. 13.
The trails will be available Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through Oct. 13, plus on Columbus Monday, Oct. 14.
Operating hours will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Tickets for opening day will be sold in advance, online, starting Sept. 3. Due to the limited capacity on the trail network, tickets are expected to sell out. The address is www.mtbachelor.com.
All riders must sign a release of liability waiver and buy a daily chairlift ticket which will serve as an access pass. A full day will cost $29, while afternoon only will be $19.
Riders are required to have helmet, closed-toe shoes and a bike with functioning front and rear brakes.
Terrain in the bike park includes jumps, wood and dirt ramps, jibs, logs and other features.
When fully built, the bike park will contain more than 13 miles of single-track downhill mountain bike trails. Construction is planned to occur each summer until the network is complete.
There will be no beginner trails open until next summer.
Deep River boat ramp to be closed Sept. 3-5
ROSBURG — Oneida boat launch on Deep River in Wahkiakum County will be closed Sept. 3 through 5 for urgent repair on the fractured ramp and floating dock.
During the three-day closure, a work crew will install interlocking concrete blocks to secure the ramp and clear the way for installation of a new float and pilings.
"We're waiting to do this work until the Buoy 10 chinook season is over, but can't push the project any later," said Sandra Jonker, regional wildlife program manager for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Timing of the work is determined by the optimal low tide schedule.
The agency plans to close the ramp for one or two more days later in September to install the new dock and pilings.
The ramp repair and dock replacement are part of a larger effort to improve safety and general conditions at the site, which the department acquired in 2011 to preserve access to the water.
Other improvements in September include paving and stripling the main parking lot, laying gravel on the overflow lot and installing new toilets.
Grants awarded for Cape Horn trail
WASHOUGAL — The non-profit Cape Horn Conservancy has been awarded an almost $10,000 grant from the National Forest Foundation to restore vegetation, protect habitat and do re-routes on the Cape Horn Trail.
The Columbia Gorge Environmental Foundation is providing a grant of $2,000 and contributions from the Forest Service, conservancy, Friends of the Columbia Gorge and Washington Trails Association will bring the work value to more than $37,000.
The trail is a 7.5-mile loop using a portion of a county road.
Vancouver Wildlife League to discuss pheasant program
The Vancouver Wildlife League will meet at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, 2108 Grand Blvd.
Members will discuss the upcoming pheasant-released program in the Vancouver Lake lowlands plus other topics.
The public is welcome.

.- The president of the Bishops' Conference of Colombia, Archbishop Luis Augusto Castro Quiroga, said this week the Church is willing to serve as facilitator in the peace talks between the government and the different rebel groups, but he said the process needs to move forward with greater prudence.
"The Church has always been willing to serve as facilitator and to make the humanitarian exchange (of individuals that have been kidnapped by the rebels) a priority, for we see this as most urgent as there are human lives that are suffering tremendously," the archbishop stated.
Speaking with reporters after a meeting with top government officials involved in the peace talks, Archbishop Castro Quiroga said, "We have arrived at the conclusion that the process should move forward, but in order for there to be success, it must be done with much prudence," because "many things have been messed up by a lack of discretion."

Wow! Absolutely amazing!!
The use of light in this one is very, very striking. Good job!
I saw the movie it was amazing ! I love the art! Good job!
Something about this picture really makes me love it I think it's her pose and her facial expression. She's strong and regal at the same time. I hope that made sense xD It's beautiful
I didn't like it... I LOVED it!
How her make up and kimono dress reflects the beauty of the traditional Chinese woman(i'm not saying that she actually needs make up to be pretty, but still).. It reflects not only beauty, but culture and tradition as well, which is fascinating! Thanks for doing a great job.
Beautiful!! I just love the simplicity of it. It really strikes a cord.
It's so divisive and strong, representing the extremes of her world. What means to be a man against what means to be a woman.
holly crap ! this looks sooo coolll!!! i love it!
This is very pretty! It's not over the top and makes a lovely statement about her character. <3
absolutely gorgeous, graceful and precise but stylized.
I love this!
so beautiful!!
woh! this is beautiful !
I got this as my desktop wallpaper this is AWESOME
This is just... amazing!
I'd say her legs may be a little too short, but I absolutely adore the piece! The colours, the play of lights and the concept itself! I love how proud and strong she looks even though she's in her outfit from the failed matchmaker's appointement and still with long hair! Really, really nice indeed!
Great art. Can I give a request?
Oooh, I love this!! Very lovely contrast between her feminine side and the warrior side of herself!
Very dramatic! I like how you used the thing in Photoshop where it looks like everything is hit by the rays of the sun.
I love the white background and the dramatic shadows! Really beautiful!
Beautiful setting.
i love the colour shining down through all the objects the colouring is lovely
just one question, where are her eyes?

Interesting design and style you did in this piece.
The professional wuality of this is astounding.
It's very, very pretty ^.^
It's very, very pretty ^.^
This is lovely!
this is incredibly gorgeous! i love that you played on her own personal conflict without using the overplayed split face? double reflection thing. well done!
The ass-kicking princess! Whoohoo! Seeing two sides with her here, in her dress and makeup, complete with parasol and blossom petals, and in front of her, her father's sword!
WOW ! So beautiful ! Love the colours and the light !
very cool. I like how the colours look like the sun is on them very cool!
It looks great. the colors and shading are wonderful! and I love her hair!
Her legs looks a bit short tho. just a bit.

Wow! This is incredible!
Wow, that is gorgeous..!
very lovely
Oh my gosh! Love it.
She look kinda creepy too, like the white of her eye.
This would've made a great poster.

Thank you.
Her eyes are white, because I wanted to give her some sort of absent, deep thinking look

The server in my room has a really small computer case (There's only 2 internal hdd mounts) so I leave my third sata-connected hdd outside of the case. Would picking up this connected hdd and moving it while the computer is running damage the hdd?
Also, (just out of curiosity), if all your hdds are mounted inside the case; Does picking up your case and inching it over damage the hdd if the computer is running?

There was a mouse in the house!
Friday, January 18, 2013
We recently had new doors and windows installed. Apparently, during the installation process, a lone little mouse took refuge from the cold in our kitchen! Yuck! While my husband and I were basking in the afterglow of a homeowners job well done, our cats began to act weird. Our oldest cat became obsessed with getting into the lower cupboards where my plasticware is stored. Our youngest would suddenly dive under the dishwasher door when it was open and lay their flat the entire time I was loading it. I didn't think much of it until the first night I was back from attending a funeral out of state.
Both cats were sitting up like prairie dogs and staring at the top of the stove and cabinets near the stove. Their eyes were absolutely glued there. Former farm kids that we are, I said, "You know, the cats are acting like there's a mouse in the kitchen." I moved the basket of oven mitts away from the back wall. Sure enough, there they were. Mouse droppings. "Oh, we have a mouse!" We have never had a mouse in the house. Garage, once in awhile, but never in the house. We talked about how a mouse could have gotten in. Then we realized it most likely got in while the new doors and windows were being installed.
The next night when I opened the dishwasher to load it, there he was! Old farm girl or not, I yelped and hollered, "Rube! Rube!" (youngest cat) Rube didn't come to my rescue because my tone scared him to death, and the mouse scampered under the dishwasher.
We rinse our dishes thoroughly before putting them in the dishwasher. I decided the mouse was in the dishwasher to get water, not food. I started keeping the dishwasher door shut tight all the time, and I placed a small bowl of water in the middle of the kitchen floor to try and draw him out. Next, I took the cats' collars off of them. We never let them outside, and I figured their tags jingling would make it impossible for them to sneak up on our unwanted guest.
Last night our oldest cat tucked us in as usual. Big purr and love fest. As both cats have been doing the last couple of weeks, as we were drifting off to sleep, they got out of bed....tonight without their collars on.
At 2:30 A.M. I was awakened by fierce growling and hissing and spitting, and scuffling. I quietly got up, put my slippers on, and turned on the kitchen light. Rube was tossing the mouse around, playing with it. Py was the one growling. I couldn't tell if the mouse was dead or not. I woke up DH.
The mouse was not moving. Py took the mouse play over, still growling and hissing. It was a little unnerving. I have never heard him so fierce, and he would not let me have the mouse. After seeing all the puncture wounds, we determined it was dead. We went back to bed.
They ate the mouse. We woke up this morning to no mouse and a pile of puke in the family room. DH cleaned it up.
Both cats are sacked out in the sunshine now. Py is dreaming about chasing something. His paws and mouth are twitching in his sleep. Reliving last night's hunt? Probably. It was the most excitement we have had around here in awhile.
I hope we don't have anymore.
