In addition to our Journeys, Issue Articles, Photos, Maps and other existing content, GTT is working on a number of projects related to natural resource issues and education.
A sampling of current and future projects is below:
Katmai slept beneath the swing of Hig's Paddle as we skirted the ice-cliff edge of Malaspina Lake.
-Around Cook Inlet (Spring 2013). This two-month, 650-mile trip will find us circumnavigating Cook Inlet with two young children, exploring natural resource issues and interviewing villages and communities along the way.
-From Glaciers to the Sea (Fall 2013). This month-long trip being undertaken by Chris Dunn will explore the Susitna River from source to mouth. The goal of this trip is to document the issues surrounding the proposed Sustina Dam.
-Collaboration with Skytruth to develop mapping software.
-Creation of a "media portal" that will allow facilite navigation through our database of thousands of photos, maps, articles, figures etc. (in progress)
-A documentary of our 2-month long "Life on Ice" expedition which took place on Malispina Glacier on the wild Lost Coast of southeast Alaska (in planning stages)
-A documentary called "Where the Heck is Donlin?" based on three voyages looking at the issues surrounding the proposed Donlin Gold mine (in progress)
-Creation of a series of figures on coal-related topics such as resources and reserves in Alaska, exporting of coal, and coal consumption in the state. These figures will then be tied into a poster that shows the relationship of all of these pieces, as well as bring in the effects of climate and the relation to fisheries. (in progress)
Mike Borden and Andrew Mattox dig out a trench
-Studying seismic hazards at the proposed Pebble Mine. The company behind the Pebble project has mostly dismissed concerns about seismic hazards and has mapped the nearest fault using incomplete and outdated information. Hig has lead several seasons of fieldwork to better understand the seismic hazards in the region (ongoing: various products of this project here).

Almora v. Buxton: Showdown at High Noon
Here's a grab bag from recent days in the Iowa bush leagues:
*Junior Lake looks like a ballplayer but needs polish. He's been getting on base a lot but his hits have included a swinging bunt here, a deflected ball there, a well-placed bloop, etc. With the glove his best game was in right field where he made multiple good plays. At 3B he's made some diving and leaping stops but the arm's erratic to the tune of five errors in less than a week. Still, he looks the part of a prospect.
*Took me a while to notice but The Cub Way no longer includes knickers in the farm system. Apparently the short pants look left town along with Oneri Fleita.
*Status quo with Brett Jackson. The other night his first three at-bats went as follows: solo homer, struck out swinging with the bases loaded, walk (stolen base). Also saw him throw a guy out on the fly tagging up at 2nd on a fly ball to medium depth CF.
*Took the day off today and roadtripped the hundred miles to Cedar Rapids to eyewitness the battle of AA vs. BB, last year's #'6 and 2, respectively, overall draft picks. This round went decidedly to Byron Buxton who led the hometown/first-place Kernels to a 6-2 win over visiting Kane County. Not only did he single, double and triple at the plate, he also made an astounding Superman circus catch in the top of the 2nd; back-to-the-plate, full sprint, all-out dive robbery of extra bases as he skidded across the warning track to a stop against the wall. Proving he's a nineteen year-old human in his first full season of pro ball, he was picked off first after his single.
Almora went 1-4, hustling a seeing eye single into a pants-ripping double when the Kernel infield left the bag at 2nd unprotected in pursuit of his bouncer up the middle. He also drove Buxton to the track in deep center on his hardest hit ball of the day but that running catch was ho-hum compared to the earlier highlight reeler. Almora was not tested defensively but I did notice how he positioned himself for a routine catch with a man at 2nd in such a way that he was perfectly aligned for the throw to 3rd.
Has it been mentioned previously how much Vogelbomb resembles Chris Farley? From my seat several rows behind the Cougar dugout it appeared that he, AA and Rock Shoulders are three amigos. Several times when Kane County was hitting and none of them was at the plate, on deck or in the hole, there they were; side-by-side on the top step with their elbows resting on the dugout railing. Almora was doing most of the talking. Far, er, Vogey laughed a lot.
The kid Amaya who plays 2B and bats leadoff ahead of Almora? Don't know much about him but he made a sparkling play to snuff out a threat when the game was still scoreless and drew three walks, each of which included multiple foul balls. In his other AB the count went full before he lined out.
Pierce Johnson started for KC and looked good until Buxton busted the game open with his bases-clearing double in the 5th.
The Superman circus catch:
every year that that ballpark
every year that that ballpark ages in looks about 5 years due to lack of maintenance...it's hard to believe it's only 11 years old.
i bet the concrete there hasn't seen a power washer since it opened...and the numbers flaking off the OF wall is embarrassing.
...nice catch, btw. =p
castro finally gets a hit
castro finally gets a hit (deep RBI double, 1-4 on the day)

Interesting article, thanks.
Interesting article, thanks.
I'm kinda thinking Ian
I'm kinda thinking Ian Stewart should get on a plane w Buddy Holly, jim Croce and Payne Stewart.
Cubs brass seems highly annoyed with his BS to say the least.
Recent comments
Oh, I'm sure you're right. He's not 27-27 in saves for nothing. But, man, I hope they learned last night that he didn't throw a single pitch in the zone to KB, Contreras or Baez, and they all just kept swinging.
Sounds like a much better game than last night's fiasco in Flushing.
I'm pretty sure it looks like a sweet pitch on the way in. How many sinkers like that are there at 98 mph? I agree that they should just do a Lackey and stand their with their bat on their shoulders until he throws a strike next time, but I can see how that's hard to do.
The bullpen, on the other hand, is a mess, and Heyward is starting to piss me off.
I noticed that too. He's getting to everything, but when he gets right under it on a high flyball he looks uncomfortable
Did you expect anything different?
Wow, did they blow this game. Stupid plays by the kids in the 7th -- Almora throwing to 3rd instead of 2nd to keep the DP in order (when a DP probably wins the game) and Baez throwing to 3rd (to a backpedalling KB) instead of getting the easy 2nd out at first - cost them the game. Also, Contreras almost throws the ball into RF on a nonexistent pick-off play. And Maddon, for using Peralta in the first place. Did they do a bunch of shots in the dugout before the 7th? Unbelievably bad baseball. I thought Almora had a high baseball IQ?
men on 2nd/3rd, 0 out...and nothing.
cubs lose :(
Getting tired of this Heywood weak sauce
Yep, can't say I disagree with that. His first batter and resulting walk was just brutal. Reminded me of a bit of Jacque Jones spiking his throws into the ground from RF.
The use of Peralta in any
semblance of a high leveragesituation is questionable at best.
fixed that for ya.
The use of Peralta in any semblance of a high leverage situation is questionable at best. Hind sight is easy but Peralta had nothing.
make that just peralta...
a.soriano new OF fielding coach?
Why is Almora jumping up on catches?
"Tommy La Stella (hamstring) will remain on his minor league rehab assignment through at least Friday."
should be an interesting roster shuffle once these guys trickle back in. i imagine patton or peralta are on the hot seat for la stella's return.

The yearly "March of Brides," which this year took place Oct. 17, mourns the death of a Dominican-American woman named Gladys Ricart, who was shot in 1999 by an ex on her wedding day to another man. It's also meant as a protest against domestic violence in general.
This sign reads, "We can't take any more violence and criminality."
The "brides" also placed flowers on the names of domestic violence victims.
The "March of Brides" also takes place in New York. Above, the 2005 New York march.

Publisher's Description
We are the young people, We will not be broken!
For almost fifty years, apartheid forced the young people of South Africa to live apart as Blacks, Whites, Indians, and "Coloreds." This unique and dramatic collection of stories—by native South African and Carnegie Medalist Beverley Naidoo—is about young people's choices in a beautiful country made ugly by injustice. Each story is set in a different decade during the turbulent years from 1948 to 2000, and portrays powerful fictional characters who are caught up in very real and often disturbing events.
Author Bio
Beverley Naidoo grew up in South Africa under apartheid. She says: "As a white child I didn't question the terrible injustices until I was a student. I decided then that unless I joined the resistance, I was part of the problem." Beverley Naidoo was detained without trial when she was twenty-one and later went into exile in Britain, where she has since lived.
Her first children's book, Journey to Jo'burg, was banned in South Africa until 1991, but it was an eye-opener for thousands of readers worldwide. Her characters in Chain of Fire, No Turning Back, and Out of Bounds face extraordinary challenges in a society she describes as "more dangerous than any fantasy." She has won many awards for her writing, including the Carnegie Medal, the Jane Addams Book Award, and the American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults for The Other Side of Truth, about two refugee children smuggled to London who are also featured in Web of Lies.

Traditional hard drive makers like Western Digital have largely stayed out of the SSD market. The company's solid-state SiliconDrive lineup is pretty sparse; it's limited to enterprise-oriented products that use SLC memory exclusively and top out at just 128GB. WD continues to funnel money into SSD development, though. After providing the initial funding for enterprise SSD firm Skyera, WD has "co-invested" in a $51 million "Series B round of financing."
The press release doesn't mention any other co-investors, but it does indicate that WD's contribution extends the strategic relationship between the two companies. That relationship "includes joint technology development," although it's unclear to what extent the two are working together.
Skyera seems primarily focused on cost-effective enterprise storage solutions. The press release touts the shyHawk storage system, a rack-mounted product that uses 19/20-nm MLC NAND and is priced at less than $3 per gigabyte, an apparent "industry breakthrough" for this class of storage.
Skyera's proprietary controller technology anchors the skyHawk, providing "advanced flash management algorithms" to extend NAND life. Interestingly, the controller is capable of "softening writes" during periods of lower I/O traffic. This process uses "a lower electrical charge" when writing to the cell, which is supposed to reduce the substrate degradation that causes flash wear. The controller also includes a compression scheme and a RAID 6-like implementation that work together to slash flash writes by factor of 10X, Skyera claims.
Although the skyHawk systems are clearly built for server racks, the underlying flash management mojo should be valuable for any SSD, including client drives and caching solutions. It will be interesting to see whether the technology works its way into any Western Digital products—and how long it takes the hard drive maker to expand its solid-state offerings.

Study Suggests Top European Football Clubs Have More Internationals, Older Players
Published March 22, 2013
THE STUDY: FOOTBALLPERSPECTIVES, which published the report, noted the profile of players in the first division of football "varies greatly from one country to another." The average age of a player is higher in the richest leagues and diminishes progressively going down the rankings. The squads of "the biggest champions have more experienced players." Conversely, young players "are less numerous" in the Big Five where only 16% of players are under 22 compared to 24% in the fourth economic level. The int'l recruitment of players was for many years" hampered by the quotas limiting the number of foreigners." The Bosman ruling decreed by the European Court of Justice in December '95 "changed the rules for clubs of European Community member countries or those having signed free movement of people agreements with the EU." Communitarian players were "effectively no longer bound by quotas." At the same time, numerous leagues "liberalised the presence of non-communitarian footballers." For the Big Five, the percentage of players imported from abroad increased from 19% to 43% between '95 and '12 (FOOTBALLPERSPECTIVES, 3/21).

American Airlines Recycling Wine Corks
At its numerous Admirals Club locations, American Airlines will begin recycling wine corks to prevent them from ending up in landfills.
In conjunction with ReCork America and Sodexo, American Airlines will collect corks from 24 locations in the U.S. and San Juan, Puerto Rico, according to a press release.
ReCork says that 13 billion natural cork wine closures are sold each year, the vast majority ending up in landfills.
The cork recycling program will divert the corks to manufacture of footwear and flooring.
Some wineries are taking steps to ensure that their cork is harvested sustainably. For instance, Willamette Valley Vineyards uses cork stoppers harvested from responsibly managed forestlands certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

It's a sad week for Pizza Huts and Taco Bells. Das Racist, the endlessly irreverent slacker-art-rap outfit behind "Combination Pizza Hut & Taco Bell" and "Rainbow in the Dark", has called it quits. Heems announced the news at what would have been a group performance at Munich's On3 Festival, telling the crowd, "I'm going to do some Das Racist songs, but Das Racist is breaking up and we're not a band anymore." Bandmate Kool A.D. later tweeted that he left the band two months prior, unbeknownst to fans:
The Village Voice asked Das Racist in 2009, "Is this a joke that everyone thinks is a graduate thesis, or vice versa?" Kool A.D.'s all-caps reply seems to sum up the group's fortuitous existence: "WHY ARE YOU VALIDATING THE FALSE DICHOTOMY OF JOKES VS. SERIOUS SHIT? " As we reflect on the end of what often seems like a shockingly successful joke-rap prank, here's a glimpse back at the earlier highlights from Das Racist's career:

Video Premiere: Kanye West's 'Lost in the World' Ft. Bon Iver
Kanye West's music video for his song "Lost in the World", which features vocals by Justin Vernon, has gone viral. The newly-released clip sees the rap mogul performing on a mirrored ground with clouds reflected on it. Some females in plain white tees restlessly dance to the song in a frantic choreography.
The video is shot in black and white by filmmaker Ruth Hogben, and attaches a warning about the use of strobe effects which could potentially trigger seizures. The clip is described as a piece that "breaks the mould of popular rap aesthetics while still celebrating the extraordinary talent that has made West a modern icon."
"Lost in the World" contains some tribal sounds and samples Bon Iver's 2009 song "Woods". It's taken from Kanye's fifth studio album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" which has been released since November 2010.

I'm looking forward to a futuristic Cajun Christmas with Robot Gulet.
Leninbot is clearly a nod towards the famous human Lenin, a member of the popular band 'The Beatles'.
Here is a ridiculously well-drawn reference to Futurama, a show where I imagine most of the robot jokes made so far in this article were used first.

José Cordeiro: a singular vision of the future
According to futurist José Cordeiro, advances in neuroscience, nano, bio, and information technology are pushing mankind into the post-human age.
Forget flying cars and robot butlers. If José Cordeiro has it his way the future will be a far more interesting place. What's more, it may be coming sooner than many of us ever imagined.
A member of Nasa's Singularity University and global think-tank The Millennium Project, Cordeiro is one of an increasing number of researchers encouraging everyone from schoolchildren to business leaders to think big – very big – about the future. Do you want mental powers of calculation that make the most powerful supercomputer of today seem like an abacus? No problem. Do you want to beam your thoughts directly into the minds of others? Technology will provide the means to do so. It will even, Cordeiro proclaims, grant us immortality.
Since abandoning a career in petroleum exploration and financial consulting, Cordeiro has made a name for himself as an in-demand writer, researcher and speaker, along the way building up an impressive CV. As well as his positions in the Singularity University and the Millennium Project, he is involved with more than a dozen organisations and institutions, has appeared in national newspapers in Japan, Korea, the US, France and Brazil, and has shared his ideas about the future at several prestigious conferences including TEDx Rio+20.
To refer to him as 'a character' would be something of an understatement. He signs his emails 'futuristically yours', cites his place of birth as Caracas, Venezuela, America, Earth, Solar System, Milky Way, Universe, Multiverse, and is a dedicated wearer of loud Aloha shirts. But despite this, and the fact that he frequently punctuates his many sprawling ideas with groan-inducing dad jokes, it's clear there's a lot of heavy-duty thinking going on behind that impish grin.
For some, no doubt, many of Cordeiro's ideas and predictions will seem more than a little far-fetched. But, according to others, so they should: as far-fetched as possible in fact. For advances in technology, they claim, are being propelled by a phenomenon known as the Law of Accelerating Returns.
"I basically concentrate on the four main technologies: nano; bio; info and cogno," he states. "All of these are becoming more information-based. And the advancement of information technologies changes according to Moore's Law, or more precisely, the Law of Accelerating Returns. Moore's Law is only the fifth example of the various iterations of the Law of Accelerating Returns. There will be a sixth and a seventh. Information technology, nanotechnology, biotechnology – all follow these exponential curves."
Formulated by futurist Ray Kurzweil in the 1999 book 'The Age of Spiritual Machines', the Law of Accelerating Returns states that the rate of technological change is exponential rather than linear. This results in the creation of a positive feedback loop in which technology feeds on itself getting faster and faster with each step forwards. Not only does the processing power of the technology increase but the rate of change itself also increases dramatically.
There will reach a point, Kurzweil claims, when these exponential increases advance so rapidly that there will be "a rupture in the fabric of human history". This theoretical point is known as the technological singularity as it is impossible for the unenhanced human mind – that is, one not modified by and integrated with technology – to comprehend what will occur beyond it. Both Kurzweil and Cordeiro predict it will occur in 2045.
It is this integration of man and machine, and the enhancement of the human mind and body, that Cordeiro recently spoke about at a meeting of the London Futurists held in London's Lincoln Inn Fields. The message many left with following a day of discussion and debate was a provocative one: we will soon be living in an age of cyborgs.
"It will begin with people that have problems," Cordeiro says. "Like blind people, deaf people or paraplegic people. In a way, they don't have anything to lose. If you don't have eyesight, you can't see, then you won't worry about experimenting with your eyes. They are already replacing lenses in people's eyes when they have cataracts. They can give people sight that is better than mine. Because my eyes are fine, I don't want to change them yet. But someone will try. What we have now is just baby steps compared to what we are going to have in only five years."
To serve as his example Cordeiro points not only to current wearable technology but to the humble spectacles as a precursor to integration between man and machine.
"Actually I use glasses; this is already an integration with technology," he says. "My mobile phone is an integration with technology. We are doing this already. I read earlier that Samsung is working on a new product that is like Google Glass, but they are using a contact lens instead. Google Glass is just one step. We are going to integrate more and more with the technology. We will have the technology in our bodies."
Key to grasping Cordeiro's ideas is to see the bigger picture of how different technologies feed into and affect one another. Running concurrently with developments in computer hardware and software are similarly impressive advances in nanotechnology and biotechnology. The human genome was successfully sequenced in April 2003 by the Human Genome Project (HGP), an international, collaborative research programme. It took 13 years and cost $2.7bn (£1.75bn). Now, partial genomes can be sequenced for as little as $5,000 in just several hours. Cordeiro has already had his own genome read and takes pleasure in passing on the finding that he is distantly related to both Marie Antoinette and Genghis Khan.
"First of all, the human genome is not that big. It's only three gigabytes," he says. "So people have to realise we are not talking about huge numbers. Now we are reading the genome, which is relatively simple – it has only four letters: A, G, C, U – so we understand the genetic code and can read it. We are learning to write it, so we can actually create new organisms, new life-forms with different genes. There has already been an artificial virus created... artificial bacteria. And soon we will create other artificial organisms by connecting genes."
An organism called Synthia
The breakthrough he is referring to is the work of Craig Venter, a key member of the HGP, who in May 2010 produced a synthetic organism. Venter and his team first sequenced the genetic code of Mycoplasma genitalium, a tiny bacterium, and recorded it on a computer. They then used this code as a template, modified it slightly from the original and implanted it in a cell, which had had all of its original DNA removed. The resulting organism, somewhat playfully nicknamed 'Synthia', then started to replicate – an attribute considered by many to be the basic definition of life.
It was a truly impressive piece of research which opened up a fierce debate on ethics that stretched far beyond the scientific community. But for Cordeiro, creating synthetic bacteria and going no further is simply not ambitious enough. He has grander goals in mind.
"Writing genomes is about 20 years behind reading genomes. Now that we are reading the genomes we will have a good understanding in the next ten years of all of the genes. When we know the genes we can manipulate them and change them and combine them differently. We are talking about maybe 30 to 40 years [when] we will be able to create large genetically modified organisms with different genes."
The brain too is the subject of much study with several research groups across the globe attempting to create synthetic grey matter. The EU-supported Human Brain Project, the Blue Brain Project in Switzerland, and the Riken Institute in Japan are all working on producing the first fully functioning synthetic brain.
Cordeiro argues that the human brain has remained largely unchanged for 60,000 years. He predicts that in the future we will be upgrading our brains every few years in the manner that we currently update our computer hardware. He likens the potential developments lying ahead to the increase in portable storage media, which progressed from the punch card to the floppy disk and to the thumb drive. Our natural brains are, he claims, akin to the punch card.
"It's terrible," he says. "I would like to emphasise that there will be a big difference, for example, in terms of the speed when our brains are upgraded. Our brains are slow. They don't even go as fast as one kilohertz because they work with big chemical ions that are very slow. Electronics work with electrons that move incredibly fast, so the difference between these chemical ions and electrons is in the order of millions. Any computer works at more than one gigahertz yet our brains work only at one kilohertz so artificial brains and human enhanced brains will be millions of times faster."
This, Cordeiro says, will mark the ushering in of the post-human age. So does this mean that we are all going to be Da Vincis and Van Goghs in the future?
"No. Much more than that," he deadpans. "Let's compare our brain to a chimpanzee brain or to a mouse brain; you may say that a little mouse doesn't have any creativity or imagination like we do, so imagine now we will create something better than our brains that will enhance our own. Remember, our brains are the product of random evolution and we are creating things by design. I believe enhanced brains and artificial brains will be much more creative and innovative than our brains and also millions of times faster. This whole conversation we are having now would be done in one second."
For some, these ideas will no doubt raise a series of alarm bells. The modification of genes and close integration of the body with technology throws up a whole range of moral and ethical questions. Sceptics are likely to ask what, if anything, is left of the human.
Human evolution
"I like to think about what is left of our genetic ancestors when they evolved into something closer to us," Cordeiro explains. "This is evolution. Evolution tries to improve and I think our descendants will be much more intelligent, much more handsome, faster... everything. I don't like to discriminate in favour of humans, like I don't like to discriminate against humans. Humans are not the end of evolution. We are just the beginning of conscious technological evolution.
"I am being very provocative. I want people to realise that things are moving so fast that we are not ready for the changes. My personal view, not that of the Millennium Project or the Singularity University, is that this is going to happen. We are going to reach a Cambrian explosion of new life forms because we will be able to modify ourselves in many different ways."
There is, however, one small caveat.
"It may not be for all of humanity. I grew up in South America and we have a lot of Indians in the Amazon who don't wear clothes, they don't use glasses, they don't speak modern languages. Another example would be the Amish in Pennsylvania. They are living 100 years behind. The Amazonian Indians are living thousands of years behind. So maybe some people will remain as they are today, and that is okay. But I think most people would like to live longer and healthier, and this is happening from both sides from the hardware, nano and bio, and the software, info and cogno. We are going to reach immortality of the hardware and software in 20 to 30 years. I'm actually very excited. The year 2045 is used as the year of the singularity because that's when we will reach hardware and software immortality."
Of course, whether Cordeiro's many predictions end up coming true remains to be seen. However, one thing at least seems clear – the future isn't what it used to be.

Building up: Revenue will grow as construction activity and consumer confidence rise
IBISWorld's Home Improvement Stores market research report offers insightful industry analysis and research into the market at the national level. IBISWorld's in-depth industry market research is presented in a logical and consistent format. The industry report contains key industry statistics, market size, industry trends, and growth and profit forecasts for a 5-year outlook period.
The Home Improvement Stores industry struggled during the past five years. Revenue dipped in 2009 due to the recession, and only recovered slightly since then due to growing consumer income and the property bubble. In the next five years, the industry will continue to recover thanks to the rebounding construction market. However, housing starts are expected to decrease as the Canadian housing market continues to recover. Price competition will remain among big-box stores as e-commerce strengthens. Yet rising per capita disposable income levels will improve demand for industry services... purchase to read more
The Home Improvement Stores industry exhibits a low level of capital intensity, with companies spending an average of $0.11 on capital for every dollar spent on labour. Capital costs have grown slightly during the past three years due to the increasing technological complexity of point-of-sale systems and inventory tracking systems.
