In writing notes and comments on the Zhouyi, the author would have to make an assumption that those Yi aficionados reading the blog would have acquired a minimum of ten years reading the Book of Changes and also own a copy of the Richard Wilhelm translation. However not all readers would fall under the categories of a minimal ten years of study and/or owning a W/B translation, therefore one has to summarize the Ten Wings for fellow students who would like to know more about the technical aspects of Yi studies, and/or about the Ten Wings.
"In the Wilhelm/ Baynes English translation, Richard Wilhelm explained in Book II – The Material – that The Book of Changes is a work that represents thousands of years of slow prolonged reflection and meditation. The material presented in the second portion of their translation consists chiefly of what has come to be known as the Ten Wings. These ten wings, or expositions, contain in substance the oldest commentary literature relating to the Book of Changes.
The first of the commentaries – the First and Second Wings – is called Tuan Zhuan. The Tuan Zhuan or Commentary on the Decision gives exact interpretations of King Wen's decisions (judgments), on the basis of the structure and the other elements of the hexagrams. This commentary (made available under individual hexagrams in Book III) is an extremely thorough and valuable piece of work and throws much light upon the inner organization of the hexagrams of the I Ching. The Chinese ascribed it to Confucius.
The Third and Fourth Wings are formed by the so-called Xiang Zhuan, Commentary on the Images. In its present form it consists of the so-called Great Images (Da Xiang), which refer to the images associated with the two trigrams in each hexagram; from these the commentary in each case deduces the meaning of the hexagram as a whole, and from this contemplation in turn draws conclusions applicable to the life of man. Besides the Great Images, this commentary contains also the Small Images. These are very brief references to the Duke of Zhou's comments on the individual lines of the hexagrams.
The Fifth and Six Wings constitute a treatise that presents many difficulties. It is entitled Hsi Tzu, or Da Zhuan, and likewise has two parts. The title Da Zhuan means Great Commentary, or Great Treatise.
The Seventh Wing, named Wen Yen (Commentary on the Words of the Text), is a very important section. It is the remnant of a commentary on the Book of Changes – or rather of a whole series of such commentaries – and contains very valuable material deriving from the Confucian school. Unfortunately it does not go beyond the second hexagram, Kun.
The Eighth Wing, Shuo Kua, Discussion of the Trigrams, contains material of great antiquity in explanation of the eight primary trigrams.
The Ninth Wing, Hsu Kua, the Sequence – or Order – of the Hexagrams, offers a rather unconvincing explanation of the present sequence of the hexagrams. It is interesting only because the names of the hexagrams are sometimes given peculiar interpretations that are undoubtedly based on ancient tradition.
The last (Tenth) wing, Tsa Kua, Miscellaneous Notes on the Hexagrams, is made up of definitions of the hexagrams in mnemonics verses, for the most part contrasting them in pairs. "
Still, I would suggest that students should only delve deeper into the Ten Wings (mainly made available in Books II and III of the W/B translation) after a minimum ten years of Yi studies otherwise they could be confused.

This part a little bit harder to understand but I will try to learn more from you in this blog. To be honest, I really have my eyes open big with the accuracy of the I Ching.
The wisdom of the text inside really changed my view about how we live in this world.
Again, very much enjoy reading your blog and wish you the best next year 2008. :)

Hi Zentrader!
Do not worry too much about understanding the Ten Wings; it takes much time to absorb the wisdoms therein – decades to do so.
I am glad to hear you are learning something from this blog. The Zhouyi is too profound a classic to understand alone. If the Yi truly speaks to us, nothing in Heaven and on Earth can remain hidden.
Good luck to your endeavors in 2008.

Last Friday, more than two centuries after Massachusetts became the first state to punish animal cruelty as a felony offense, the governor of South Dakota signed into law a bill that will create a new felony penalty for extreme cruelty to animals. This is a momentous milestone, and everyone in the animal welfare movement should take a moment to recognize its significance. Finally, all fifty states will have felony-level penalties for animal cruelty.
Back in the 1980s when we first began working for the enactment of stronger animal cruelty laws, only four states classified animal cruelty as a serious crime; the rest punished animal cruelty – no matter how heinous and appalling – as a mere misdemeanor offense. A felony conviction means law enforcement and the public take the crime seriously, the offense goes on your record, and you can serve time in a state penitentiary and/or pay a substantive fine. If someone wrote a bad check, possessed drugs, or committed certain forms of vandalism, those acts could be punished as a felony offense. However, if someone brutally tortured a dog, they were only subject to a misdemeanor -- basically a slap on the wrist. This made no sense from a legal standpoint and certainly not from a cultural and common sense framework.
A few states recognized the importance of treating animal cruelty as a serious crime early on. Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Rhode Island all had felony animal cruelty penalties in place at the turn of the 19th century; Michigan followed suit in 1931. Then movement was relatively quiet until Wisconsin pushed for a felony penalty in 1986 and that energized the animal welfare community. Felony cruelty laws became a major focus and there was a huge effort to educate the public about the link between violence towards animals and violence towards humans. We were even able to get assistance from the FBI. The ripple effect took hold, and by the end of 2000, 31 states had strengthened their anti-cruelty laws to make these crimes punishable by a felony penalty. During the last 14 years, 19 more states have enacted felony cruelty laws.
Reaching the 50-state mark is certainly a laudable achievement, but we cannot celebrate without noting shortcomings in some of these felony cruelty laws – loopholes and exemptions that let some of the worst abusers completely off the hook.
When the corporate agriculture industry and other animal exploiters knew that felony cruelty laws were inevitable – a credit in itself to animal welfare advocates – they stepped in to protect themselves. Language was added to the most recent laws enacted in the Dakotas to exclude persons engaged in customary practices in farming, breeding, exhibiting, boarding, transporting, raising animals, controlling predators, hunting legal game, and more activities involving animals. In South Dakota, even if someone tries to prosecute an offense to a livestock animal that does not clearly fall under one of these exemptions, the Animal Industry Board, composed of representatives of the livestock industry, holds power over the entire process. In other states, only cruelty against dogs and cats can be a felony offense. These groups exploit animals and position themselves to be above the law, sending the message that they have the right to do whatever they want to animals, without consequence.
So yes, there are now 50 states with felony penalties, which finally elevates animal abuse to the same level as other serious crimes. But just as a prohibition on child abuse would be ridiculous with an exemption for parents, teachers, and daycare workers, the gaping exemptions in these new laws are travesties of justice.
So the fight is not over. The ASPCA and their members will continue to work to close loopholes and remove outrageous exemptions so that all animal abuse is taken seriously and adequately punished. Animal protection has made incredible advances in the last decades, and the advocates who fought so hard to reach this 50-state milestone deserve both a huge congratulations and nothing less than our best effort to make those advances count.

On Jan. 6, the University of Texas introduced Charlie Strong as its new head football coach, making him the first African-American head coach of a male team in the school's history.
But not everyone is on board with the changing of the guard.
Someone – it's unclear whether it was a Texas fan or otherwise – created a Texas-themed shirt with Strong's face and the words, "Black Is The New Brown" in a tasteless attempt to be funny. The Brown, of course, refers to former coach Mack Brown, who stepped down after 16 seasons.
The shirt was selling for $19.95 on the goods website Etsy and has since been taken down. But not before a screenshot of the shirt was taken and the description for the item was copied:
After 16 years as head coach of the Longhorns, Mack Brown is stepping down to make way for Charlie Strong as the new head coach. Celebrate Charlie Strong's arrival in style.
It's stuff like this that, according to NPR, gave Strong pause when offered the Texas job. Edith Royal, wife of the late, great Darryl K. Royal, called Strong and urged him to take the position. Royal's 1969 team was the last all-white national championship squad. Tight end Julius Whittier became the first African-American to play for the Longhorns in 1970 and the landscape of the school was changed forever.
It was further changed with the hiring of Strong.
But as this ill-advised T-shirt shows, everyone everywhere still has a long way to go.

Nissan has announced a new limited-production Nissan GT-R Spec V model which we're still having trouble wrapping our collective brain cells around. The GT-R was unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2007, and it has taken all before it since then - it is a technological masterpiece that looks like a relatively normal car, but outperforms cars worth double, triple and more. In Japan it sells for 8.6 million yen, translating into the cheapest production supercar the world has yet seen. Now, the Spec V is being shown at Geneva and has already gone on sale in Japan for 15,750,000 yen (JPY) – an increase of 83% in price – and the engine produces NO more horsepower. So what do you get for an extra US$72,000?Read More

Fabled Spanish Revivals Inspire the Remodeler in You
From Dean Dowd on March 13, 2008 in General Remodel
Before tackling the remodel of your Spanish Revival home, why not take a step back for a well-deserved vacation, where you can go sightseeing and gather research and information at the same time. Spanish Revival homes are widespread in beautiful southern California, and architect Diane Wilk was kind enough to point the way to the following renowned architectural models. All of them are open to the public, so you can take a look at the details, and wait for the inspiration to unfold with your own home remodel. The Steadman House Casa del Herrero in Montecito, CA Considered one of the finest examples of Spanish Colonial Revival Architecture, this home was designed by acclaimed architect George Washington Smith. One of Montecitos fabled estates, it has stayed with the same family since its construction more than 75 years ago. Its now listed under the National Register of Historic Places. Adamson House in Malibu, CA This house contains all its original furnishings. Built in 1930, it is famous for its Malibu tile, sparkling fountains, and flagstone pathways. Santa Barbara County Courthouse in Santa Barbara, CA Called the most beautiful government building in America, this Spanish-Moorish style building was completed in 1929. A sprawling landscape of gardens and lawns surround the property, also known for a famous fountain, mural room, and ornate tilework. Balboa Park in San Diego, CA This San Diego cultural treasure houses a wealth of Spanish Colonial Revival buildings, all constructed in 1915, when the ornamented style was showcased for the first time in the U.S. Lush landscaping and numerous other attractions will highlight your visit. Mission Inn in Riverside, CA This national historic landmark hotel has housed 10 U.S. presidents, including Roosevelt, Nixon, and Taft. Historic bells, fountains, courtyards, and travertine flagstones grace the hotel and its accompanying restaurant and chapels. Scottys Castle in Death Valley, CA Watch the desert moonlight dance against this two-story Spanish villa. The Scotty it is named for lived there only as a guest who bragged about a hidden mine. Electricity at the castle was generated by the Pelton Wheel, and artwork and craftsmanship abound. All great suggestions from Diane, who reminds us that this architectural model flourished in Florida as well. For examples from the other coast, research the work of Addison Mizner, whose projects include the following:
- 1922: William Gray Warden Residence, 112 Seminole Ave., Palm Beach, Florida
- 1923: Via Mizner, 337-339 Worth Ave., Palm Beach, Florida
- 1925: Administration Buildings, 2 Camino Real, Boca Raton.
- 1925: Boynton Woman's Club, 1010 S. Federal Highway, Boynton Beach
- 1926. Fred C. Aiken House, 801 Hibiscus St., Boca Raton
We hope you've enjoyed this week's series on Spanish Revivals. Next week, there's more excitement to come with the Ranch Style home.

We want to try the Costco brand diapers but I am a bit skeptical. We have tried the Target brand and I hated those. We use Pampers and Huggies but I prefer Huggies. Has anyone tried the Costco brand? Are they any good? Would you compare them more to Pampers or Huggies or neither?

I have not tried Cosco diapers. I use Luvs which are considerably cheaper than Huggies or Pampers and I have not had a problem, but I know other moms who have had problems with them. It must depend on different body shapes and what not. You could always try a small package of Cosco diapers even if it hasn't worked for other moms because they might work for you. Worst case scenario would be that you have a few more outfits to wash.posted 10/02/2012 by neneface

Isn't this how they lengthened the Windward & Dreamward back in the late 90's?

It is done with airplanes quite often. I don't see why they can't do it with ships.

This was also done to the old Holland America Westerdam. It made it a much worse ship, hard to handle (I saw it get blown completely away from the dock when it was trying to dock in Juneau, one time), and bad riding (the only cruise ship that ever even made me queasy).

The Dream and the Wind are the only two NCL ships that were ever stretched or extended, Andy.
But the practice of stretching ships goes back to 1871.

Over the weekend, two separate off-highway vehicle (OHV) accidents injured five people, three of whom were airlifted to Salt Lake Valley hospitals. According to Rockport State Park Assistant Manager Kevin Taylor, the incidents seemed to be par for the course on busy summer weekends in Summit County.
"We respond on one to two OHV accidents per weekend. It's pretty constant," he said.
Friday night, Summit County dispatch received word of an OHV accident on the Chalk Creek Road near Coalville. A 16-year-old male was taken by LifeFlight to Intermountain Medical Center and the driver, a 15-year-old girl, was driven by a relative to the Park City Medical Center.
Saturday, at about 9:15 p.m., rescuers were called out again to the scene of an OHV accident where a driver had lost control of a Polaris Razr Side-by-Side while traveling downhill on Hoyt's peak near Marion.
"The Polaris Razr had failed to negotiate the turn ejecting all three occupants," Taylor said, adding that all three victims were injured but conscious and alert.
Rescue personnel from the South Summit Ambulance District, Summit County Search and Recue and the Sheriff's Dept. responded to assist in transporting the victims down the mountain to a waiting medical helicopter.
According to Taylor, the 44-year-old male complained of a back injury, the 9-year-old boy suffered a broken collarbone and the 12-year old girl had an external head injury.
None of the occupants were wearing helmets or seat restraints and speed may have been a factor in the accident, he added.
"They (OHVs) are fun but they are powerful beyond most people's abilities," Taylor commented.
Basic OHV Laws and Rules:
-Helmet required for riders and passengers under age 18.
-Youth, 8-15 years of age, must possess a OHV education certificate before operating an OHV on public land.
- Ride only on designated routes and areas open to OHVs.
- Ride on the right side of the road and in single file.
- Be alert to oncoming traffic, especially on blind curves or in dips and crests of hills.
-It is illegal to drive an OHV while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
-Mufflers with an approved spark arrestor are required on all OHVs.

Thanx for checking me out
From the great white north aka Minne-snowta
Have been into art since I was younger. I thoroughly enjoy kicking back and sketching up concepts for various projects. Big into fantasy and comic related genres. Also some figure study with emphasis on the male form and gay sensual related artwork (largely from my own head). Also like doing "amateur" nature and people related photography and tweaking them on my laptop

OKLAHOMA CITY ?C Danielle Rodriguez had a happy birthday, and the Wildcats have another day left in their season after the junior pinch runner scored the go-ahead run in the 10th inning against Tennessee to even the Championship Series at one game apiece in the 2007 WCWS.
Rodriguez scored on an Adrienne Acton fielderˇ?s choice with one out in the top of the 10th inning and snapped a streak of 43 consecutive scoreless innings for Tennesseeˇ?s Monica Abbott.
With the win, Arizona improved to 49-14-1 with one game to play in the season, while Tennessee dropped to 63-7.
Arizona pitcher Taryne Mowatt (41-12) tossed her seventh complete game in six days, shutting out the Lady Vols to earn her 41st victory of the season ?C tying her with Alicia Hollowell for the most victories in a single season at Arizona.
The junior All-American struck out 11 Lady Vol hitters and in doing so became the single-season strikeout leader at Arizona with 511.
Abbott (50-4) allowed just the one run on four hits and struck out 11 hitters of her own, but the one run made the difference.
Both teams squandered scoring opportunities throughout the game, as Arizona left seven runners on base and Tennessee stranded 14 in the extra-inning thriller.
Rodriguez entered the game as a pinch runner for Sam Banister, who singled to for the second time in the game to lead off the 10th.? The multi-hit game was Banisterˇ?s second in as many days, marking the first time the sophomore has accomplished the feat in back-to-back games all year.? Next, designated player Sarah Akamine sacrificed Banister to second.? That brought up Callista Balko, who entered the at-bat 0-for-19 in the WCWS.? The Arizona catcher laid down a bunt of her own, which moved Rodriguez to third and allowed Balko to reach with an error. The next batter, Acton, plated Rodriguez with a chopper to short on the closest of plays at the plate.
The first base runners of the game came in the top of the second, when UA third baseman Jenae Leles drew a leadoff walk.? One out later, Banister connected on her third hit in two games to give the Wildcats two runners on with just one out.? However, Abbott struck out the next two Arizona hitters to end the threat.
Tennesseeˇ?s offense nearly mirrored the Wildcatsˇ? output as Shannon Doepking drew a one-out walk and Alexia Clay hit a blooper to center field that fell for a single.? Like Abbott did in the top half of the frame, Mowatt buckled down and struck out the next two Lady Vols to keep the game scoreless.
Mowatt worked out of more trouble in the fourth. Tonya Callahan started things off with a walk and Doepking laid down a bunt that allowed her to reach on a fielderˇ?s choice.? Next, Mowatt induced Clay into grounding into a double play, before getting the next hitter to ground out as well.
Mowatt continued to play with fire as she loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the fifth. Liane Horiuchi started things off with a walk and moved up a base on a Kenora Posey bunt single.? That brought up the top of the order and SEC Player of the Year India Chiles, who loaded the bases with an infield single.? Mowatt got Lindsay Schutzler to ground into a fielderˇ?s choice to retire Horiuchi.? She then got Tiffany Huff and Callahan to pop to her middle infielderˇ?s with exceptional plays by Chelsie Mesa and Kristie Fox, respectively.
Other than a two-out single off the bat of Mesa in the fourth, Abbott retired the Wildcats in order from the third inning until the seventh.? Thatˇ?s when Banister drew a two-out, full-count walk.? Abbott struck out the next hitter ?C her 10th punchout of the night ?C to bring the game to the bottom of the seventh.
The game headed to extra-innings when Mowatt left a pair of Lady Vols on base in the bottom of the seventh.? With two outs, Schutzler singled and Huff walked, but Mowatt got Callahan to fly out to left.?
Kristie Fox reached with a one-out single in the ninth.? The base knock was her 10th of the WCWS play and marked the 16th game out of the last 18 that she has had at least one hit.? Yet again, Abbott left the runners stranded as she retired the next two hitters.
Posey started Tennesseeˇ?s half of the ninth with a single through the right side.? With Chiles at the plate, Posey stole second.? Next, Mowatt struck out Chiles to tie UAˇ?s single-season record of 508 punchouts.? The Wildcats then elected to walk Schutzler intentionally, bringing up the heart of the order with just one out.?
Mowatt responded by getting Huff to fly out.? With two outs and a full count, Mowatt became the single-season strikeout leader by striking out cleanup hitter Callahan to end the inning.
Game Notes:
- Taryne Mowatt set a WCWS record for complete games with seven.
- Taryne Mowatt set a WCWS record for walks in a given WCWS with 25.? However, only one of those bases on balls has come around to score.
- Arizona improved to 3-1-1 in extra-inning games this year.
- Kristie Foxˇ?s 10 hits in the WCWS are the second-most all-time.
Up Next: With the win, Arizona forced a deciding Game 3 with Tennessee to determine the 2007 NCAA Division I champion.? The game will be played at 7 p.m. (CDT) on Wednesday and will be televised on ESPN2.
Arizona will try to win its eighth NCAA title in program history and win back-to-back championships for the third time in program history.

The Chicago Bulls won impressively with a 111-87 win over the Houston Rockets Thursday night behind the 3 point shooting of Mike Dunleavy, who was four of six and Kirk Hinrich, who was five of six from the 3 point arc.
As they were able to shake their defenders, they became opened and drain three pointer after three pointer giving the Bulls an increasing lead throughout the entire game.
Althought Dunleavy left the game in the second quarter with a bloody cut that seemed to be above his left eye, it did not have any affect on his shooting sight. He returned and scored 18 of his 21 points in the third quarter.
The Bulls also got solid shooting from Carlos Boozer who scored 18 points and also from D.J. Augustine and Joakim Noah who each scored 13 points.
Noah also played solid defense and was one assist away from claiming a triple double.

Krakow RECOMMENDATIONS See all
Day Trips from Krakow
By Viator, January 2015
Poland's capital city has been revitalized since its near-destruction in WWII, so grab the chance to see the main sights in a day. Start off in the vibrant and up-and-coming Praga area, stuffed with galleries, bars and restaurants, before exploring the former royal hunting grounds of Lazienki Park and following the Royal Route to the cobbled streets and gaily painted houses of Warsaw's atmospheric Old Town. During free time in the afternoon, tour the ornate apartments of the majestic Royal Castle, once home to the Polish monarchy.
Auschwitz-Birkenau and Wieliczka Salt Mine
Save money by combining two of Krakow's most popular tours. Face the enormity of the Holocaust with a morning visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where 1.5 million Poles, Jews, Russians and gypsies lost their lives in WWII. See an uplifting documentary on the liberation of the camp in 1947 and take an educational if sobering guided tour of the barracks, gas chambers and crematorium. The following day, venture far underground in the labyrinthine caverns of Wieliczka salt mine to see the bizarre salt formations and the eerie Chapel of St Kinga, where even the altar and chandeliers are made of salt.
Zakopane and the Tatras
Here's your chance to explore rural Poland amid the gorgeous Tatra mountains. Driving past spectacular lakes and waterfalls, head to Zakopane, Poland's winter-sports capital, to ride the funicular up Mount Gubalówka for glorious views over forested peaks and valleys. Back in Zakopane, discover the region's traditional wooden chalets and churches before hitting the stores and restaurants of the buzzing main street, Krupówki – and don't forget to sample the local Oscypiki sheep's cheese!
In the Footsteps of John Paul II
John Paul II is much revered by the Poles and this informative tour showcases his life as plain Archbishop Karol Wojtyła before he left Krakow to become Pope in 1978. In the morning drive through the undulating Beskidy mountains to explore his birthplace of Wadowice. Travel on to the futuristic church at the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy in Lagiewniki before returning to Krakow and visiting Wojtyła's former apartment and the Archdiocesan Museum at the Bishop's Palace in the entrancing Old Town.

On Feb. 13 Carter Matt shares that in the upcoming season of "Sons of Anarchy" season seven fans will get to see more Charlie, played by Peter Weller than we did in season six.
Peter Weller plays Charlie, the crooked cop that helps run the escort service ran in Stockton that Jax and Nero are now co-owners of. Not only will we be seeing more of Charlie in front of the screen but also behind it as he will be directing more episodes than he has in the previous season.
Charlie hasn't always been the most upstanding character on the show, but neither has anyone else. He has kept Jax out of trouble a few times in the past, so he could be an asset this season since there is going to be a lot going on legally with Jax and SAMCRO.
In other news, there might be less of DA Peterson as CCH Pounder has signed on for the pilot of "NCIS: New Orleans." Kurt Sutter says that he plans to talk to the director of the show as DA Patterson is an integral part of the seventh season since she was the one that found Jax after Tara's death. She is also the one that is supposed to be prosecuting Jax in his trial.
Are you excited that there will be more Charlie and possibly less of the DA?

Matson raising shipping rates 5.6%
Matson Navigation Co. is increasing its Hawaii service container rates and handling charges effective New Year's Day.
Matson will increase the Hawaii service rates by $175 per westbound container and $85 per eastbound container, according to a prepared statement released Wednesday.
It will also raise its terminal handling charge by $50 per westbound container and $25 per eastbound container, according to the statement. The charge, implemented in 2003, is designed to recover a portion of costs associated with moving cargo through terminals. For most Hawaii customers the increases will result in shipping costs rising by an average 5.6 percent, according to the company.
The increases will be filed with the Surface Transportation Board.
Dave Hoppes, senior vice president of ocean services, said the rate increase will help offset rising operating costs as well as support investments in Hawaii service.
According to the company, in the past decade, Matson has invested nearly $1 billion in four new container ships, fleet enhancements, new container equipment, information technology and upgrades to its terminal facilities.

Phacochoerus aethiopicus
|Scientific Name:
|Phacochoerus aethiopicus
|Species Authority:
|(Pallas, 1766)
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Notes:
|There are two described subspecies, one (the nominate form) extinct since about 1871. P. a. delamerei survives in the northern part of the range in the Horn of Africa.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Least Concern ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|d'Huart, J.P., Butynski, T.M. & De Jong, Y.
|Leus, K. & Hoffmann, M.
Listed as Least Concern as the species is relatively widespread, abundant, and there are no major threats believed to be resulting in a significant population decline. In addition, it is suspected that this species may be more widespread than presently known.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|Presently known only from south-eastern Ethiopia, western Somalia, and in central and eastern Kenya (d'Huart and Grubb 2001). More recently, the range has been found to extend southwards to Tsavo West National Park, west of Athi River and south of the Galana River (Culverwell et al. 2008, de Jong et al. 2009), and northwards, towards Melka Mari National Park (Obanda et al. in press). Formerly occurred in South Africa, in the south-eastern parts of the former Cape Province and apparently adjacent parts of KwaZulu-Natal, but long since extinct there (d'Huart and Grubb 2001, Grubb and d'Huart 2010). Most records are from near sea level to ca 1,400 m asl (Central Kenya).
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Ethiopia; Kenya; Somalia
Regionally extinct:South Africa
|Range Map:
|Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
|The Desert Warthog is generally reported as being locally abundant (Grubb and d'Huart 2010), mostly near small and remote villages or lodges where there is water (T. Butynski, Y. de Jong, J. Culverwell, and J. King pers. comm.). In Ethiopia, they are common in the whole Ogaden region and can be observed both in family sounders in bushy areas and in larger aggregations of up to 30 individuals around permanent wells and close to towns (Wilhelmi et al. 2004). Nevertheless, there are large areas within the geographic range from which the species is absent.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|The Desert Warthog inhabits open arid regions, in vegetation types ranging from xerophylous bush and open woodland to subdesert steppe. They prefer plains on predominantly sandy soils, and avoid hilly terrain. Desert Warthogs are dependent on occurrence of water and shade (Grubb and d'Huart 2010; T. Butynski, Y. de Jong and J. Culverwell pers. comm.).
|Use and Trade:
|This species is hunted most for food.
|Major Threat(s):
|There are no major threats to the species. However, they may be subject to localized incidences of hunting for bushmeat trade (e.g. Wilhelmi et al. 2004). Habitat degradation due to over-grazing by domestic livestock and competition for water with humans and domestic livestock may be affecting populations of Desert Warthog in some regions, but this needs investigation (T. Butynski and Y. de Jong pers. comm.)
|Conservation Actions:
The Desert Warthog occurs in a number of protected areas, including Tsavo West and Tsavo East National Parks (Kenya), Samburu, Buffalo Springs, Shaba, and Dodori National Reserves (Kenya), and likely in the Babile and Yabelo Wildlife Sanctuaries and associated Controlled Hunting Areas in Ethiopia and Meru and Kora National Parks in Kenya (d'Huart and Grubb 2001; Grubb and d'Huart 2010; T. Butynski and Y. de Jong pers. comm.).
This is a largely unstudied species for which further field surveys are needed to better determine geographic limits, area of occupancy, abundance and the impacts of various human/livestock-raising activities on distribution and abundance. Information on habitat preference and habitat limits are also needed, as is a good study of the basic ecology and behaviour of this species.

Disease Proof
County Bans Trans Fat
King County Washington flat out bans trans fat. The Associated Press reports:
A measure banning artificial trans fats and requiring nutritional labeling for menu items at chain restaurants has been approved by the King County Board of Health.Now, whether or not people are stupid is certainly a debatable point—just look at the low-carb craze—but I think consumers have a right to know exactly what's in there food. No matter how obvious it may seem. Don't you? Oh, and thanks for the article Elijah!
The measure, which applies to Seattle and most of its suburbs, was adopted after about six hours of discussion at a standing-room-only hearing Thursday over the objections of food industry and restaurant officials.
"This legislation is being driven by an obesity epidemic," board Chairwoman Julia L. Patterson said. "This is a very important element in helping to end that."
Opponents were most vehement about the labeling requirement, the second of its kind nationwide. A nutritional labeling requirement and ban on trans fats in restaurants took effect July 1 in New York.
Few if any customers don't know that a buttered 16-ounce steak is fattening, said Chris Clifford of Renton, who said he has owned several restaurants.
"I have a six-letter word to describe them: It's 'stupid,'" Clifford said. "You can't help stupid people."

Low-Carb: No Fiber, No Poop...
Here's another reason why low-carb diets aren't healthy. One dietician calls them digestive nightmares. Via I'm Not Obsessed:
The myth: Give up bread and pasta and the pounds will melt away
The truth: Low-carb eating plans are a digestive nightmare, because they don't provide enough fiber, which frequently results in severe constipation, says Maye Musk, R.D., a New York City-based dietician. Healthy carbs are also crucial for energy. Stop eating them and you're likely to feel tired and grumpy all the time.
The fix: Eat good-for-you carbs. To make sure you get the nutrients you need, add four servings to your daily diet, suggests Musk. Try a slice of whole-grain bread, one-half cup cooked oatmeal, one-third cup brown rice and one-half cup whole-wheat pasta. Piling your plate with fiber-rich veggies such as spinach, broccoli, peas and asparagus can also help get things moving.
Kind of the opposite of eating a vegetable-based diet—not to be gross, but I always keep a plunger handy.

As if there weren't already enough reasons to watch the 22nd annual ESPYs, rapper Drake will be hosting the sports award show on July 16th in Los Angeles.
The news was released via Drizzy's Twitter. The Grammy-winning, powerful rhyme-spitting artist is no stranger to sports--he recently signed on with the NBA's Toronto Raptors as their Global Ambassador; he helped launch a Raptors clothing line; consulted on a redesign of the team's appearance; and appeared in a commercial for the team.
In a recent statement, Drake said:
This is an incredible opportunity for me to combine two of my biggest passions -- sports and performing."
According to TMZ, the rapper was "extremely passionate" about hosting the ESPYs and used his SNL hosting gig as ammunition to get the sports' award show job.
Connor Schell, vice president of the ESPN Films and Original Entertainment, stated:
Drake is an unbelievably talented entertainer who truly has a passion for sports. We are thrilled to have him to host this year's show."
Even Rolling Stone stated, "Drake's pretty much already the greatest ESPY host of all time."

The un-Botox. The latest technology for paralyzing wrinkles, in FDA studies now, involves a cold probe. Instead of knocking out the nerve with a toxin, you literally freeze it. (The nerve ending will gradually grow back.)
Laser surgery for eye festoons. Festoons are like extreme eye bags – think loose skin actually swagging down onto your cheekbones – and are difficult to treat, even with surgery. "But if you injure the skin in a selective way, enough to get the body to grow new collagen and elastin fibers, it can fix the problem," says Scheiner, who's spearheading the maverick procedure and hopes to train other doctors soon. Bonus: "It makes the skin healthy, too ."
New-generation injectables: Most hyaluronic acid fillers, although clear in color, can create a bluish hue on the skin if injected too close to the surface. But the latest version, Belotero, solves that problem: Slightly smoother and lighter than Restylane and Juvéderm, it's ideal for filling hollows in the thin skin around the eyes.
Another injectable: Xeomin, a botulinum-toxin based treatment similar to Botox and Dysport, is expected to gain FDA approval for cosmetic use in the next few months. "It may last a little longer than Botox and Dysport and is expected to cost a little less," says Brandt. "Also, while it's rare, some people don't respond to Botox, or develop a resistance to it over time. Xeomin produces less neutralizing antibodies, so it could offer an effective alternative."

Were the Black Loyalists loyal to the British Crown? In most cases the simple answer is no. Many fought for the British in groups like the Black Pioneers, but this was done as a means to escape slavery rather than as an end in itself. The British "Loyalist" option was really the lesser of two evils. This proves itself true by the unjust treatment of the Black population once they arrive in Nova Scotia and the eventual departure of part of that group for Sierra Leone.
African Nova Scotian author George Elliot Clarke has put forward the tern Africadian to describe the current Black population. Africadian is a mix of African and Acadian. For the group who arrived at the end of the American Revolution Historically this term is a bit awkward as it does not provide context to their arriving from America.
Should the truth be told, the term Loyalist may be incorrect for many parts of the Loyalist movement. While some people did in fact leave the American Colonies to remain loyal, others came to claim grants of land or for economic reasons. Loyalty often had nothing to do with the reasons the Loyalists arrived.
The Black Loyalists were really interested in their freedom rather than any sort of loyalty to the British. Accepting that this is true, I am interested to hear suggestions as to the proper name for this group.rgsheritagehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-970606640885952279.post-77404869663688976862008-12-10T19:45:00.000-04:002008-12-10T19:45:00.000-04:00I am descended from the Nova Scotians of Sierra Le...I am descended from the Nova Scotians of Sierra Leone. My ancestors were not Loyalists, and I resent that title. They were African Americans and they were not Loyalists. While some were legitimately loyal to the crown, I completely resent this notion that they were Loyalists. I have read too many documents which contradict this idea, and if one once to know the truth, James Walker who came up with the term "Black Loyalist" does not give the full story of these blacks. In their own personal narratives they do not even refer to themselves as Loyalists. While I like having a kinship relationship with African Americans and their African Nova Scotian descendants, I resent the notion that we have to mold our ancestors into this "Loyalist" merely to fit Canadian historical ideals. Some of our ancestors were Loyalists, and some were not. One thing they all were, were Refugees. I agree completely that my ancestors were African American Refugees or Black Refugees like those American slaves who came to Nova Scotia after the War of 1812.Theophilus Markesonhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-970606640885952279.post-47230103486129555072008-11-05T14:04:00.000-04:002008-11-05T14:04:00.000-04:00I too woke up to Daurene's voice, and remembered 1...I too woke up to Daurene's voice, and remembered 1984 when Annapolis Royal added to its long list of "firsts" by electing Daurene!Trishhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-970606640885952279.post-35597656257355073232008-11-05T13:03:00.000-04:002008-11-05T13:03:00.000-04:00I feel your sentiments.

Summer is just about here, and the Boston Children's Museum has already lined up an impressive array of children's activities to keep those little ones in a frequent state of playing and learning!
Having celebrated their centennial with 100 family activities last year, the award-winning Boston Children's Museum, 309 Congress Street in Boston, Massachusetts, is keeping the momentum going with challenging workshops for kids 6 and older! From workshops teaching children the dynamics behind a bubble bath to song recording, Sundays at the Boston Children's Museum will be that much more exciting for children! Click here for more information!
On Sunday, June 15, learn about bubble bath making, from creating the actual signature bubble bath to label design!
Then on Sunday, June 22, return to the Museum to get a closer look at some of the vast collections that the Museum have acquired over its more than 100 year history. Having collected these items from all over the world, discover the roots to what makes the Boston Children's Museum such a lasting and award-winning experience!
On Sunday, July 13, attend another interactive workshop which teaches children how to make lip balm. Much like the bubble bath workshop, children will create their signature lip balm with label design. A workshop for music lovers will also take place on Sunday, July 13 as children learn the entire process of creating and recording a song, in a recording studio equipped with microphones and acoustic instruments!
All workshops are a family experience for all ages 6 and up! Visit bostonchildrensmuseum.org for further details!

Hi everyone
I have recently got a horse on loan who is six and never done anything other than ride around his old owners farm. I have 18 months with him before I go to Uni so he's basically my project until then. Having visited him at his old home, I know he isn't doing this just with me he does it with everyone. His old owners weren't very experienced and he is used to getting his own way so acts a bit like a spoilt child. Unfortunately, he has been lame (finally is sound for the first time *fingers crossed*) so I'm not allowed to ride him for another 3 weeks and I have been walking him out in hand. I need him to give me some space and not nip me when my back is turned or nap or barge me. He is a very sweet natured horse and will be amazing once he has learnt a few manners. I am obviously very firm with him and carry whip when out walking, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips? Thank you!

I'd go back and look at equine behaviour before carrying a whip as chances are you need to work with him on a horsey level. Go back to the school and teach him to understand personal space and those anners you say he needs. We can not expect animals to know things we do not teach.
Loads of constant ground work with consistant rules, if he walks into you you make him step back. move him side to side, take the poles out and stop him in walk over a pole and get him moving about reactively. you will also need to show him the world so he maybe spooky.
It has been calculated thay any two thoroughbreds picked at random will on average have more than 13% of their genes in common.

I'm running ubuntu Server 12.10 I have apache installed on both the ubuntu server and a virtualbox windows server running on the ubuntu as a guest. However When I download files from my webserver the rates go down to 200kbps This happens on both the ubuntu server and the Windows server. It's as if something is limiting the network speeds for apache in specific. Our minecraft server on the network doesn't lag and gets great speeds we did speedtest.net and came out with 70mbps download and 44mbps upload. What could be limiting my network speeds?
Last packages I installed before this happened Virtualbox and VMWare and I removed VMWare

Insider trading
Insider trading is the practice of buying or selling shares of a company's stock (or some other security) based on knowledge that was acquired by an insider as an officer of the company, and that is not available to the general public. Such use of this knowledge is illegal because it gives an unfair advantage to one set of investors.
Expanded Definition
To avoid charges of insider trading, insiders usually cannot trade their company's stock on the basis of major news until the news has been made public. The traditional definition of public is appearance on the Dow Jones broad ticker.
As publicly traded companies prepare to report their quarterly earnings, a quiet period exists during which executives cannot discuss earnings until they are released to the public.
The Securities and Exchange Commission is in charge of making sure market participants are playing by the rules. Company "insiders" aren't the only ones who can be charged with insider trading. A friend or relative who gets tipped off by the CEO to an impending bankruptcy filing, and trades on this information, could be guilty. Other people who come in contact with private information, whether or not they work for the company, are also prevented from trading based on that information, even if knowing it by itself is not illegal.
Insider trading is also a more general term that includes legal buying and selling by insiders. Insiders can't be shut out of trading their own stock, and their trading is legal as long as they are on a level playing field with everyone else.
Many investors watch the trades insiders are making -- which are filed on Form 4 with the SEC -- as one measure of whether a company is headed up or down. Conventional wisdom holds that if insiders (who know the company best and presumably want to profit from it) buy, that's a signal of a strength. Conversely, if insiders are selling, that might be a signal of weakness.
However, buying and selling by insiders could have nothing to do with their company's health. Maybe there are tax reasons, maybe the insider needs a large sum of money for something personal, maybe the CEO sells shares but retains options.
As Fool fave Peter Lynch once said: "Insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: They think the price will rise."
