Cave Animals
Favorite thing: The low down on the cave life is pretty simple: Bats, crickets, spiders, salamanders, crayfish, etc.
Basically our tour guide told us that during this time, October, the bats are beginning to come into the caves to begin hibernation. She told us that the most common bat is the Eastern Pipistrelle or a bat that looks like a "hairy chicken nugget". They are about the size of your thumb and have the wing span of an unsharpened pencil. On the cave tours the guides are always looking for them to point out, but don't take any flash photography of them, because they don't want to be woken up!
The deal on the crickets! Okay, these things freak me out! They look like they are spiders, they have a very small body and long skinny legs. Their antlers or feelers are extra long and look like an extra pair of legs, looks like 6 legs total. I was told they have these to help them feel around in the dark. They spend most of their lives in the caves, but do venture out to eat.
Salamanders are quite interesting, the one we saw was shy in the light. He was very brightly colored, which surprised me because i thought since he is in the dark most of the time he wouldn't need the color like many other animals in the cave. There really aren't many compared to crickets, but we were lucky to see one out of 3 cave tours.
The crayfish and other water animals, we weren't able to see. They show these animals on the brochure, but there isn't really anyway to see these guys because they are located on the 5 level of the cave system where the river is located and they don't take tours that low. I do believe you may have a chance if you take the "wild cave tour" because that is splunking and you will go deeper than the average tour.

$2 shower
Favorite thing: At the service building, which is next to the visitor center; there is a grocery story, post office, laundry, & showers. This is really important to remember, you can get a shower for $2 for 10 minutes. Of course it isn't the most beautiful area, but really it is helpful since most of the time when you visit the park it is so hot. I am not the best camper, but for those of you that will be camping in the area, remember you can get a good shower with decent water pressure! It goes by tokens, but you can buy those in the Laundry area. The man at the service store told me that if you get too many tokens, that you can take them to the store and they can exchange them for money again.
- Camping
Stalactites vs. Stalagmites
Favorite thing: Stalactites begin forming by water that has minerals in it. There are cracks in the ceilings of caves that allow the water to drip through. With time the water will create a "soda straw", a small & hallow stalactite. Then as the water continues to keeps dripping it builds the cone formation larger and larger. Equally as the drip hits the floor the minerals can deposit and begin building up, a stalagmite. With enough time, these two can eventually grow toward each other and join creating a column. These formations can really create crazy forms. But to give you an idea of how long this process can take, 1 inch is produced every 800 years.
- National/State Park
Mammoth Cave National Park
Favorite thing: Mammoth Cave National Park is one of two national parks centered around a cave or cavern. The other is Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico. There is a large area you can explore other than the cave, too. Several paved, and unpaved, roads cross different parts of the park. I mostly explored the areas along the main roads. Over 365 miles have been surveyed in the cave system with more that has not been explored or is inaccessible. There are a wide variety of different ranger-led cave tours available ranging from short family oriented tours to tours designed for the experienced caver who wants to crawl around and explore. The self-led tour of the cave is much more limited than the opportunities at Carlsbad Caverns. There are also a few historical buildings inside the park which reflect the lives of earlier settlers.
Fondest memory: Touring the Cave
- National/State Park
- Hiking and Walking
- Family Travel
Cave Ventilation System
Favorite thing: This is a very cool natural air purification system. Underground it is approximately 54 degree F, the air in the cave is constantly being recirculated by a vaccum like system. The cracks in the cave suck air in from the outside and the warm air from the cave is blown out the enterance/exit of the cave. Once you walk up the the cave, within 20-30' Ft. you can feel a very strong cold draft. The ranger told us from this circulation of the air it is quite pure. He also said that you would think that to hide underground in a cave incase of a nuclear bomb, you would first be safe from the blast but because of the air system it would sweep the radiation into the cave and people hiding would die.
- National/State Park
- Eco-Tourism
Walking Around the Visitor's Center
Favorite thing: Even if you can't go into the cave, there are interesting things to see on the surface. There are signs about the various geological features. For instance one of them says:
In the Pennsylvanian Period, 280 million years ago, a layer sand and silt was laid down by an ancient river delta, forming the slanted layer of mixed sandstone and shale visible immediately across the ravine. Beneath this "caprock" lie 6000 feet of layered limestone deposited as an ancient ea bed some 350 million years ago. The miles of cave passageway that make up Mammoth Cave are found within these layers. Sandstone and shale is more resistant to being dissolved by water than is the limestone underneath. The caprock acts like a roof, shedding water to the side of the ridge.
- National/State Park
- Road Trip
- Eco-Tourism
The point is to have fun!
Favorite thing: I loved it. Even though the pace was easy, it was still too fast for me. I will just have to go back. The cave is cool and the air fresh. The air in the Cave moves. Out of the Historic Cave entrance in the summer and into the entrance in the winter. If memory serves, the air volume is replaced every three days. You can really feel the air at the entrance. There were some odd smells in places. Reminded me of fresh concrete. Limestone rock. Hmmm. I wonder.
Remember, read and follow label directions. Pay attention to the tour publications and the Rangers. The Rangers want you to have a safe and trouble free visit. And so do I.

Erin Crnkovich
I would like to think that I have always had some sort of environmental consciousness. As a child, this amounted to things like keeping my showers under five minutes and obsessively shutting off the lights as I left a room (which may have helped the earth somewhat but mostly seemed to result in me stubbing my toes as I rooted around in the dark for the hall light).
As a student at Macalester College, I chose to minor in Environmental Studies in favor of a German Studies major, due in equal parts to my love of the language and my desire to participate in the 6 month study abroad program offered by the department. Upon graduation, I became an English teaching assistant in Austria. I was placed at an agricultural secondary school in Wieselburg, a town so small that most Austrians have never even heard of it (although many are well acquainted with Wieselburger beer). The vast majority of my students had grown up on farms, and they were bitterly disappointed to learn that, despite hailing from Nebraska, I came from the city and did not own my own tractor.
In interacting with my students, who gave presentations on such topics as the many uses of sugar beets and the most viable way to slaughter a cow, I came to realize just how far removed I and so many others like me were from the process of my own food production. I could not name the country most of my food comes from, let alone the farmers themselves. This is something that I deeply wish to help change about our society. Now, exactly how I am going to do that is something I'm eager to discover during my time at the University of Oregon.
Emily-Bell Dinan
A New York City native, Emily-Bell was working as an environmental educator with Brooklyn community gardens when Super Storm Sandy ripped through her hometown in 2012. As climate change accelerates and sea levels continue to rise, the intensity and frequency of coastal storm events puts more communities at risk. Healthy, robust wetland ecosystems help mitigate flooding, attenuate wave action and even filter pollutants from the water column. Therefore, in order to help make coastal resiliency and science-based decision making possible, she is now at the UO studying wetland ecology and natural resource management.
Emily-Bell studied Political Science and History at the City University of New York, Hunter College and is an alumnus of the Aquatic Research Environmental Analytics Center at Brooklyn College. Most recently she worked as the Program Educator for the Rockaway Waterfront Alliance, leading youth development programming through dune restoration, beach stewardship, transit advocacy, and scientific research mentoring. As the former NYC Compost Project Coordinator at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and the NYC Department of Sanitation, Emily-Bell also has a strong dedication to helping community gardeners keep their cities growing green with healthy soils. Having served as an educator with Million Trees NYC, Solar One, and Manhattan's Lower East Side Ecology Center, she is well experienced working with environmental non-profits ensuring urban residents have equal access to nature.
In her free time, Emily-Bell can be found gardening, cooking, or napping with her very awesome dog and cat.
Kassandra Hishida
During my junior year of high school, I enrolled in Environmental Science because I was intimidated by physics, overwhelmed by chemistry, and had heard that this class included field trips. Little did I know, this course would eventually lead me to pursue a science degree as an undergraduate. After a year of studying soda bottle ecosystems, carrying around our trash in tote bags, and a series of awesome field trips (as promised) I was hooked! The lessons from this class challenged my worldview, inspired me to take action, and changed me forever. When it came time for me to declare a major in college, I chose Environmental Science and never looked back.
For the next four years I took classes from every corner of campus and got involved in a variety of projects. I enjoyed many geology field trips, spent two summers working on Orcas Island as I worked on benthic habitat maps of the San Juan Archipelago. Mid-way through college I became part of a project that was one of the most defining components of my undergraduate career. I joined an incredible team of students, staff, and faculty passionate about facilitating a campus-wide culture of sustainability at a campus not known previously known for being a leader in environmental issues. Though things started slowly at first, we've come along way in just under two years. This spring we were presented our work to our university President and his cabinet, who have since committed to developing Fresno State's Sustainability Institute.
At the University of Oregon I hope to focus on two topics that are well aligned with my previous experiences, my future goals, and my interest in the overlap of traditional subjects: Environmental Education and Environmental Justice. My most meaningful experiences have been the ones in which I was able to take ownership of the project and feel that I had made a tangible difference in my community. My hope is that approaching environmental education and environmental justice through the lens of service-learning will challenge students to become leaders in their communities as well.
Euell Macke
From my first day on Earth I have been immersed in the beauty and wonder of the natural world. For this I thank my parents. As homesteaders in rural Eastern Oregon they taught my brothers and I how to love the land and revere nature. My childhood was spent playing in the garden, caring for our cattle, and endless exploration of the streams, pastures, and mountains around our home. A passion for insect collecting lead me to work with a Forest Service entomologist throughout high school. I earned a BS in biology from Oregon State University and continued fieldwork in insect ecology across the Great Basin. As an ecologist I have studied and worked in Argentina, the Ecuadorian Amazon, the Galapagos, and Honduras. During my travels I became fascinated with different cultural perspectives on nature. My current research interests are broad, ranging from conservation biology and ethnobotany, to art and folklore. My goal at UO is to gain the skills and knowledge to be a better advocate and activist for the environment and human rights. I am project oriented and love to get my hands dirty doing meaningful work that has immediate results.
Jared Pruch
Born and raised right here in Eugene, the clear rivers, deep forests, high desert and rocky coastlines of Oregon featured prominently in my upbringing. Time spent in wilderness has always felt important, and my undergraduate studies at Colorado College were focused on the ways that religion and philosophy shape the way humans interact with and value our environment. After several years of teaching at outdoor science schools in northern California, I relocated briefly to Moab, Utah to work for the Canyonlands Field Institute, then to Hood River, Oregon where I led environmental education programs for a rural charter school. In 2007, I moved home to Eugene for a job as the executive director of the School Garden Project of Lane County, a nonprofit that helps schools create and sustain school gardens. My interests in education, natural resources management, nonprofit administration and sustainable agriculture led me to a new position in 2011, launching a Demonstration Farm at the Berggren Watershed Conservation Area on the McKenzie River. Managing habitat and water conservation priorities alongside agricultural production systems has proved to be a rich and dynamic challenge, one that I hope to continue to focus on as I transition back to the academic world. I'm specifically interested in the role that conservation incentive programs can play in fostering improved stewardship of agricultural landscapes, and in the use of conservation easements and other land-use planning tools to preserve farmland as farmland. When I'm not working, I'm usually up in the woods picking mushrooms, canoe camping in the Cascades, cross country skiing, or cooking food with my fiancée Josie and our dogs Opal and Fiona.
Andrea Willingham
I have always been fascinated by the human relationship with the natural environment. It was this thirst for understanding that drove me from my hometown of Tampa, FL after graduating from Eckerd College, to embark on the adventure of a lifetime in Alaska. During college, I volunteered and studied abroad in London, Honduras, and Iceland, and became enthralled with the many ways our societies interact with our local ecologies, and moreover, how those interactions evolve with environmental changes. While living in Alaska and working for the National Park Service, I was able to observe these connections firsthand in the subsistence practices of Alaska Native communities that rely on the ecosystems of the region for their livelihoods. As I became acquainted with these communities and how they are adapting to the rapidly changing climate of the Arctic, I started questioning the ways we connect with our natural resources, both in situ and from afar. It is within this framework that I am now studying the roles of Local and Traditional Ecological Knowledge and science related to climate change in southeast Alaska. With concentrations in media and geography, I am producing a documentary and multimedia story collection for my Master's project. Aside from working as a park ranger in Alaska during the summers, I can usually be found hiking somewhere with my camera in hand, birding, writing, traveling, or cooking.

Office Hours: By appointment
I spent countless days as a child wandering the woods and fields behind my family's typical suburban home outside of Philadelphia. After growing up in suburbia, I was eager to move to a place where public transportation and walking were viable means of transportation. That eagerness led me to Washington, DC where I majored in International Studies at American University. For much of my undergraduate studies, environmental issues were not foremost on my mind, and it wasn't until my final year that I took a course in global environmental politics. After graduating, I moved to Kampala, Uganda to work for a sport-development organization as a teacher, soccer coach, and program coordinator. I was drawn to this experience by the desire to explore the cultural and social role sport can play in a community. In Uganda, I became attracted to the way communities are shaped by environment and access to food. I've spent the last few years in Oakland, California working as a research and program assistant for a project that addresses literacy education in multiple subject areas. Living in Oakland, a city that simultaneously exhibits many of the promises and problems of the food system, I have begun to fully realize the important role food plays in a community. At University of Oregon, I'm looking forward to digging deeper into the relationships between community, food, and environment, and addressing issues of local food access. I'm also exciting to see what Oregon's mountains, forests, lakes, and local farms have to offer.
Lauren Hendricks
Growing up near the shore of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota, I had access to amazing natural resources, and definitely took advantage of them. But it wasn't until my freshman year of undergrad at Colby College that I realized that I could actually incorporate my love of the environment into my life beyond doing activities that took me outside. I took an introductory environmental studies class, and was captivated by the topics we discussed. I was fortunate to take several classes in field ecology, including a trip to the Galapagos, and fell in love with the subject. Along the way, I gained skills in GIS while doing a summer research project on habitat modeling, and have come to highly value the benefits of spatial thinking and its applications in a variety of fields. I spent another summer working as an environmental education intern at a park in my hometown, and third working as an assistant in a trace metals analysis lab. I also decided to pursue environmental engineering, through a dual degree program with the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College. I graduated from Colby with a BA in 2011 and from Dartmouth with a BE in 2012. After graduating, I worked at an environmental consulting firm outside of DC, doing GIS analysis for US Air Force encroachment studies. At the University of Oregon, I plan to study the impacts of climate change on species distribution. Outside of work and school, I enjoy hiking, biking, rock climbing, reading, and any other adventures that come my way!
Deion Jones
I am originally from Tampa, Florida, attended Florida Gulf Coast University two hours south in the city of Estero, and four years and a firm handshake on a stage later, my Environmental Studies degree was completed. Growing up, I was always outside, but not necessarily romping through the woods. My nature was a 120 x 80 yard soccer field that I called home, and this love continued throughout my college years as a student-athlete. With being a student-athlete, though, came a voracious appetite that could only momentarily be quelled by copious amounts of food. My family is Jamaican, and there was rarely a night in which we didn't have a home cooked meal from the island. Cooking was commonplace in my home, and was something I quickly and happily continued in college. However, after reading an article about numerous instances of food insecurity just miles from my university, my inkling for food switched from "What am I going to eat for dinner?" to, "Don't throw that food out – we can donate that!" A whirlwind of food soon ensued; I was running an end of the year food drive as students moved out of housing, was an intern with a local food bank, and luckily enough, was chosen attend a conference held by Real Food Challenge across the country in California, where I consequently had been catapulted into the deep end of the burgeoning food movement in colleges nationwide. The culmination of my undergraduate food experience came in the form of a study abroad course to Rancho Margot, a sustainable ranch located in El Castillo, Costa Rica, covering topics of sustainable food, society, and sense of place. When we weren't discussing global implications of the industrialized food system, we were knee-deep in cow manure, or methodically and carefully tending to the garden beds. This course, as well as my experiences up to this point, inspired my undergraduate research, interviewing students on their relationship with sustainable dining options on-campus. At the University of Oregon, I hope to further explore the personal relationship that develops between people and the food that they consume. I'm especially interested in this relationship at the university level, where students have more independence in terms of what they choose to eat, and the role that universities play in that decision-making, from education to availability. If I'm not around anything edible, you can usually find me listening to music, biking, reading, attempting to rock climb, or doing something soccer related.
Katrina Maggiulli
Born in Oregon, I grew up with the foothills of the Coast Range in my backyard, and the sprawling pastures of the Willamette Valley in the front. Having been raised on a steady diet of farming, art, music, hiking, and ample reading, after graduating high school I found myself working for the Oregon State University Horticulture Department and pursuing a degree in English. My plethora of interests drew me particularly to interdisciplinary issues and during my time in the OSU English department my studies focused on the human experience in their environment, and how this shapes one's personality and perspectives on the world. When I met environmental ethics in my senior year, my interests grew to include the philosophies that inform the human-nature relationship and how they develop and change over time. After graduating I took an internship with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service running visitor services programs for the Willamette Valley National Wildlife Refuge Complex. While working for the USFWS I became particularly interested in species-based issues involving management practices for threatened and endangered and invasive species. At UO my studies focus on the complex interrelationships between humans and other animals. Specifically I am taking an ecocritical lens to literary and filmic renditions of the human-animal hybrid, and looking at the anxieties produced by biotechnological advancements that blur species boundaries. My interests also include the ways different media forms help or hinder messages of positive interspecies relationships, and how themes of horror and utopia figure within these discourses. On the days when I try not to get too skeptical, you can find me on a hike with my Australian kelpie Žižek, cultivating my weakness for sci-fi/fantasy novels, or enjoying a ridiculously bitter IPA.
Dan Shtob
Having been born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to explore various cultures from a young age. Due to this curiosity I chose to study anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, where I took the advice of a favorite professor and spent a semester at the University of Zimbabwe studying the interaction between traditional and modern medicine. This interest—or at least the part that focuses on how social institutions and beliefs articulate with policy—then motivated me to attend Vanderbilt University Law School, where I concentrated on commercial law with a particular interest in banking, finance, and the social factors that influence and regulate them.After a five-year career as a finance and real estate attorney in New York, it became clear both that I would rather be out in the field than confined in an office and that my desire to return to southern Africa would not abate. My wife Brittany and I joined the Peace Corps and served in Zambia. Working with Zambian subsistence farmers and small entrepreneurs in a program that incorporates environmental stewardship, advanced agriculture and food security measures, and sustainable income generation was both humbling and illuminating, and crystallized an interest in conservation into a desire to remain in the field. I then joined Chipembele Wildlife Education Trust, a conservation organization located in Mfuwe, Zambia, near South Luangwa National Park, to design community outreach programs intended to educate and sensitize the community about local environmental issues for the purpose of reducing poaching, habitat destruction, and other environmentally destructive activities.Each of these experiences convinced me of the overarching importance of understanding and aligning science and society when attempting to create sustainable and balanced conservation initiatives. Accordingly, my academic interests focus on the interrelationship between the environment and social and cultural precepts and norms, how these translate into policy, the relative efficacy of policy developed by various means, and how each of the foregoing should be incorporated into environmental and community planning. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling off the beaten path, all things aquatic, exploring the outdoors, growing orchids, and, sadly, following the New York Mets.
Christopher Torres
I was born a Southern Californian, and a bad one at that. Having been raised among the mountains of East County San Diego, I enjoy rolling hills and valleys over flowing waves and salty breezes. Undergrad took me to Northern California, to the hills of Berkeley and the mountains of North Bay. I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in the Spring of 2012 with degrees in Philosophy and Conservation & Resource Studies. The interim between my academic work has taken me to the mountain tops of the San Bernardino mountains to teach science, ecology, and leadership to 5th and 6th graders and to the San Diego Zoo to be a tour guide in order to share conservation and biodiversity ideas with the public. I am happy and excited to once again be a part of a vibrant academic community in order to continue my academic work. I seek to continue my path down the avenue of Philosophy and Environmental Studies, the two graduate degrees I am pursuing while here. My interests focus on the way the philosophical perspective and approach can help understand environmental philosophy, environmental ethics, and social justice.
Andrew Dutterer
As a youngster growing up in a suburb of Chicago, I cultivated an early interest in fishing through summer trips to Wisconsin, West Virginia, and North Carolina, as well as poaching bass ponds on nearby golf courses after hours via bicycle and spinning rod.While attending Middlebury College in Vermont I "evolved" into a fly fisherman and at that point there was no turning back. I have since spent most of my adult life planning my next fly fishing adventure. Ultimately, this led me to full-time residence in Maupin, Oregon- a rural Central Oregon town of 450 people on the lower Deschutes River.In five years as retail and guide service manager, guide, and instructor at the Deschutes Angler Fly Shop in Maupin, I was regularly exposed to a large range of issues surrounding the high profile water resource of the Deschutes River. The river defined the small community in which I lived, and decisions concerning the management of the river had enormous impact on the livelihoods of many in the community, myself included.
Through my almost daily forays to the Deschutes and elsewhere, fly rod in hand, I developed an impassioned concern for the vitality of our rivers. In turn, this led to an inspired interest in the policies managing our region's water resources with respect to the health of our fisheries.Subsequently, I began working with Trout Unlimited in Bend, OR to further explore the field of watershed management. I have since worked directly on a range of policy issues concerning water resources in Central Oregon as numerous federal, state, and non-profit organizations attempt to balance the demands of recreation, irrigation, and fisheries in our region.Through the Environmental Studies program at UO I will pursue an outstanding academic foundation to complement my experience in the field. Ultimately, I aspire to contribute to water policy and watershed management decisions by innovating solutions to the allocation of water resources in the Western US. My all-time favorite thing to do is to float and camp on rivers, and with some good fishing in the mix I could ask for nothing more. I also enjoy hiking with my two dogs, barbecuing on the back deck, watching Chicago Cubs games, tying steelhead flies, and chasing steelhead throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Alicia Kristen
Long ago, a young girl put on her best adventuring gear. She had read about travelers, role-played as an elven ranger, and written stories of wilderness heroics. Hair braided and backpack on her back full of a bug-collector's gear, now was her time to explore the wilds and reclaim the forests from litter and pollution.As a young woman, this journey would take her far beyond New England's forests. She sought waterfalls hidden in the cliffs with the shamans of Tepoztlán, she sang ancient songs for rain and sun with the pedagogical descendants of Ingwe, she made decoctions of nutritious herbs she'd never before heard of, and she tasted the wild foods of Shenandoah's sweet hills. In this journey, she joined in all kinds of communities, ecovillages, family farms, farm schools, outdoor education centerspartly as anthropological research, partly soul-searching. During these experiences, she began to have a vision for the kind of community that she wanted to be a part of: a community with nature, mentoring, and rich culture at its core. She also began to hear a clear calling for her to travel to Eugene, Oregon.Leaving her precious (goat) kids with fellow herbalists, she gave everything to travel the Oregon Trail to the great valley of the Willamette. While finding the journey worthwhile in itself, she grows everyday more delighted that Oregon is just as she had imagined. She and her partner have founded their own community, The Gardenhouse, to bring together a three-generation family with a focus on nature-based education and permaculture gardening. While attending the University of Oregon, she will delve again into her anthropological and creative backgrounds to implement a program that will connect (human) kids with nature, culture, and their communities.The projects and goals have matured, but this young woman is still in many ways the same young adventurer, collecting specimens, journaling, writing novels, role-playing, biking, raising animals, playing in the dirt, and enjoying board games with friends. The difference is that now she can make fire by friction, stealth silently through wineberry brambles, make berry baskets from bark, and lead kids on adventures she could only dream about as a young girl.
Jaleel Reed
I graduated from Northwestern University with a B.A. in Environmental Science and a minor in Business Institutions. Growing up in Los Angeles, but having spent the last four years in the Midwest, I am excited to return to the west coast. As a graduate student, I hope to broaden and deepen my understanding of the interplay between natural resource management and economics, as it pertains to decision-making and policy implementation in both the public and private sectors of developed and developing countries. In the long run, my goal is to continue to share the knowledge and experience I gain throughout my career in order to have a positive impact on communities in need, while also working to inspire the next generation of scholars from those communities. I feel social equity in the human experience is integral to remedying environmental, social, and economic plight; so, through my extracurricular activities at Northwestern, I pushed to include a social justice component in my environmentally oriented pursuits. I engaged social justice discourse and became actively involved in the process of serving underprivileged communities through my involvement with social justice organizations.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same." Marianne Williamson
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love hosting- it's a wonderful experience when the other person embraces the spirit of sharing conversations, a house, their experience, cooking together, making food together.
I have met lots of really interesting people through CS, and made some good friends too.
I like to meet other csers, especially other families and musicians.
I had one member of hospitality club stay. In one short day, they inspired me to want to do more hosting and become a guest myself. Why?
Because if we host, we can see our own living area with new eyes.
Since that time, we have hosted and been hosted. Both experiences are unique and wonderful. I have met many wonderful, good, kind people. As one CS member said at a meeting: "It restores my trust in humanity" Indeed it has.
CS saved my life when I got stuck in Malaysia with very little cash- since then I've been giving back

Putrajaya at night- a glistening Gotham City.
My son and daughter being born.

I can teach you some songs, or simple guitar chords. I can teach you German or Indonesian or English. I can show you how to cook rendang (Indonesian beef stew) or soto medan and sambal or just great chicken nuggets or a mean veggy stir fry.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am happy to entertain by organising a living room concert and Indonesian food - or just participate in a jam.
I am also happy to teach English, help at home etc- I couchsurf to learn :)

Water flows steadily from an open tank into a pipe as shown in the figure. The elevation of the top of the tank is 10.1sm , and the elevation at the pipe is 3.80 m. The initial cross-sectional area of the pipe (at point 2) is 7.60×10−2 m2; and at where the water is discharged from the pipe (at point 3), it is 4.00×10−3 m2. The cross-sectional area of the tank is very large compared with the cross-sectional area of the pipe.
Part A: Assuming that Bernoulli's equation applies, compute the volume of water that flows across the exit of the pipe in the time interval 6.70 .

Thank you, Actsys! My aging garage door became stuck while attempting to open. In need of help, I called Smitty and within the hour their service technician, Norman arrived, assessed the situation and immediately resolved the problem without hitting me with a huge bill. The entire team conducted themselves in a very courteous and professional manner turning a potentially stressful situation into a positive experience. I highly recommend Actsys.

Sudha Shenoy
|Sudha Shenoy
|Indian & Australian
|Austrian economics, Economic history
|School or
|Austrian School
Sudha Shenoy, PhD (1943–2008) was an Austrian School economist and economic historian. From 1986 to 2004, she worked as a lecturer in economics at the University of Newcastle in Australia. She was an Honorary Associate in Economic History at the School of Policy and an adjunct scholar at the Ludwig von Mises Institute.
Shenoy's father was Professor Bellikoth Raghunath Shenoy, an eminent Indian economist who studied under Friedrich Hayek at the London School of Economics.
Articles and positions[edit]
Shenoy published many articles on economic history and economic development and also compiled and edited Friedrich Hayek's book A Tiger by the Tail: The Keynesian Legacy of Inflation.
Shenoy was a strong advocate of free trade and a critic of central planning and the welfare state. She once told Lew Rockwell that Australia was "freer than the US." When Rockwell asked why, she replied: "Because Australia never had a civil war, and so we still have states' rights." She added: "Jefferson was correct about competitive sovereignty helping to preserve liberty."[1]
She was also highly critical of mainstream economics and especially the widespread adoption in mainstream economics of the methods of the natural sciences; she believed that, as a result of this methodology, mainstream economics was hopelessly removed from the real world.[2] In a 2003 interview, she commented that:
I'm prepared to say that nearly every economics department in the world could be shut down without having an ill-effect on the world of ideas.

According to most of those charts it seems as though the numbers have been dropping. However, I'm sure there will be a comeback this year and the years to come since the public health and obesity crisis has been all over the various medias as of late. I've also seen more veg events popping up in the US as well as the UK so that's good news.
I've always wanted to visit the UK, but the lack of funds and acquaintances (none and none) have held me back. I love the scenery though.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Depending where you look, between 2 and 4 per cent of the UK are vegetarian.

Based on the Opel Insignia from Europe, the five-seat Regal entry-luxury midsize sedan has a striking resemblance to that model. It's offered with a choice of mild-hybrid or turbocharged drivetrains, and its competitors include the Volkswagen Passat and Acura TSX.
(Skip to details on the: Regal eAssist, Regal GS)
New for 2013
For 2013, Buick's IntelliLink system, which uses Bluetooth or the USB port to pair a smartphone to the touch-screen stereo and stream music from Pandora Internet Radio or Stitcher SmartRadio, is now standard. The base four-cylinder engine has been dropped, and a heated steering wheel is available.
While the Regal's styling is definitely understated, the sedan has clean lines and a nice stance. The rear-quarter view is one of its best angles, and the car has one of the most stylish trunk lids around. Exterior features include:
- Standard 18-inch aluminum wheels
- Available 19- or 20-inch alloy wheels
- Available sunroof
- Heated power side mirrors with integrated turn signals
The five-seat cabin utilizes premium materials, and there is an optional navigation system. The Regal has a sizable trunk that measures 14.2 cubic feet (11.1 in the eAssist hybrid), and there is a wide opening to both the cargo area and into the cabin when the split backseat is folded. Interior features include:
- Standard leather upholstery
- Standard heated front seats
- Standard power driver's seat
- Standard Bluetooth connectivity
- Standard satellite radio
- Optional Harman Kardon stereo
Under the Hood
The Regal's base engine is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder with eAssist that makes 182 horsepower. Buyers looking for more power can select the optional turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that's rated at 220 hp. The engines work with a six-speed automatic transmission to power the front wheels, and sedans with the turbo engine also offer a six-speed manual gearbox. Mechanical features include:
- eAssist uses regular gas
- Turbo engine prefers premium gas, but it's not required
- Available Interactive Drive Control System equips the car with an adaptive suspension and automatically tailors the car to road conditions and driver behavior
Safety features include:
- Standard antilock brakes

Regal eAssist
The Regal eAssist combines a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a six-speed automatic transmission with a 15-hp electric motor to provide more acceleration. The motor uses power from a lithium-ion battery, which draws a charge off regenerative braking. The engine shuts off at a stop and during deceleration, helping render an EPA rating of 25/36 mpg city/highway.
The lithium-ion battery pack sits behind the rear seat, cutting trunk volume, as the case is in many hybrid sedans. Folding rear seats are standard, but the battery pack blocks the passenger-side opening.
Other changes include unique 17-inch light-alloy wheels with low-rolling-resistance tires, an air-conditioning system with a more efficient fuel-economy mode, an Eco gauge in the instrument cluster and a screen that shows hybrid-system energy flow. Back to top Regal GS
A higher-performance version of the turbocharged Regal, the GS benefits from higher turbo boost and reduced exhaust backpressure to generate 270 hp and 295 pounds-feet of torque. The power runs through a six-speed automatic transmission or an optional six-speed manual to the front wheels, and Buick says the GS' front suspension has specialized struts to mitigate torque steer. The front and rear shocks are both adaptive, with driver-changeable settings to alter their stiffness as well as power-steering assist. Drivers can choose from three settings -- Standard, Sport and GS Mode -- by using dashboard controls.
Visual cues include a lower ride height, deeper bumpers, faux hood vents and 19-inch alloy wheels. Twenty-inch wheels with summer tires are optional. Inside, the GS has a flat-bottom steering wheel, metal pedals and unique leather seats with larger side bolsters. Back to top

mackall genealogy
I am a descendent of Mackall family that lived for a short time (1860 census) in Ohio. Caroline Mackall married Jacob Stine. Her brothers were William, Alexander and Benoni; sister Eurilla. Eurilla Mackall was married to James Jerome Cushwa in 1866, children Cora and Harve. Eurilla"s niece, daughter of Caroline Mackall Stine, was CAtherine Stine and was James Cushwa's 2nd wife whom he married in 1874. I am searching for Caroline Mackall's mothers heritage. My great grandmother was part American Indian and I also have heard story that Harve Cushwa's son lived in traditional Indian style. Still have no lead as to who was the native american in my ancestry. Cushwa family is traced back with no hint of indian ancestry so have concluded that it is Mackall side. Any help will be greatly appreciated..

About 1 year ago, my dog began to have a permanent head tilt, and gradually began to walk crooked as well. I have been told that she will probably die soon from 2 neurological genetic diseases. In order to get her the best care possible, I had to make a totally selfless decsion and turn over to the local (Indianapolis) Cavalier Rescue Group to be funded taken to Ohio State University to see a veterinarian that specializes in Cavalier diseases. At this point I know that my 2 year old dog is in pain, has to eat her food laying on the floor, and we have been torn apart. he has either or both diseases: Syringomyelia known as SM (no cure) and Primary Secretory Otitis Media known as PSOM- she most likely suffers from both. These breeders must be shut down!!
I have alerted Cavalier Rescue groups as much as I can, and only wish I could organize a class action suit against these two cruel people and shut them down. It iwas so hard to see my dog suffer, and I can't describe giving her away permanently only hoping she can get some help that I could never afford.

There are few events more satisfying than a good plant swap with serious gardeners, who don't bring invasive species or other pests.
When John Adams moved from Philadelphia to the White House, the building was still under construction and there was no sign of a garden.
At Mount Vernon, Washington created a beautiful American garden that befitted a true patriot.
I am trying to grow more shrubs that fruit at different times of the year in order to provide a continuous buffet and attract birds to my garden.
The fall is a good time to plant trees and shrubs, and it is fun to cruise the aisles of stores and nurseries to see if there are good deals available.
One of the earliest trees on earth, identified through fossils, was the Ginkgo biloba, also known as the maidenhair tree.
Since trees are well and truly rooted to their spot, they must rely on other agents to help them cross pollinate, or they must self pollinate.
As well as living longer than any other organism on our planet, trees can grow into the largest organisms.
Japanese garden design is well known for its focus on different shades and textures of foliage, with a minimal use of flowers.
To improve the soil in an established garden, simply shred the leaves that accumulate from the trees in your yard and spread them over the garden beds.

It is our opinion that they owe us $77,000.00 dollers plus the interest we would have gained if we had left this money in our 401K. We do not know this amount at this time but if you figure in the fact that at the time of our investment, the Dow was around 9,500 and recently is at over 13,000, one could estimate that our money would have doubled.
The BBB should have been more more up to date on the many reports that were coming in on this company and not so worried about their members(there own bottom line).
Furthermore, all anyone has to do is visit ripoffreport.com to see all the complaints against them (BBB).

DOUBLED down at .20 and then more than double down again at .04 and owned about 4 x's the amount of shares originaly owned in the recent past "I did buy plc many years ago at $3.00 and sold at $9.01" plc eventually went to $33.00 and imo. there is a better chance now for tmr to live upto it's expectation w/using spy combined w/tmr and plc does not have to even reach it's former potential even doing between 8k to 10k tmr's per year should make a nice profit,say plc earned $1k per tmr laser kit sale after all expense's and salary's paid 8k laser kit's x's $1k = $8 million and thats saying plc can 4 x's current laser kit sales approximately but even plc can double tmr laser kit sales plc imo. should beable to profit $4 million a year but imo. be thinking plc could only clear $1k per laser sale's is a low estimate imo. w/that type of laser kit sales volume plus there is renal guard.........unedited
Scom, you continue to live in a dream world: your expectations of TMR coming back from the dead flies in the face of Novadaq's numbers, as well as the very limited success--if one wants to call it that--of CGCP's most hearty, diligent, skillful, attempt to promote it with the most recent technology. And, your dream world also extends to your oft-repeated notions of Edwards getting re-involved with PLC, even though they were desperate, and happy, to have disassociated with PLC's TMR business in all respects.All that said, I reiterate and concur with PLC being a buy in the .03-.04 range, given RG's possibilities.
participant,so for plc to basically double kit sales from approximately 500 to 1k kit sales per qrt. is dreaming ? and then for plc to double kit sales again is lofty and unrealistic ? plc tmr procedure has a potential market pool of 80k Patient's per year in the USA alone who are potential candidates for plc tmr procedure and if u noticed international kit sales had a nice little pick-up in sales of laser kits,something like 40 kit sales,small but I was encouraged..........perhap's the laser kit sales came from Canada since novadaq is a company from Canada and also plc founder and inventor of co2 laser is Canadien.........also novadaq believes there spy image could inrease plc tmr procedure's.spy better inable surgeon's to know better where to strike the laser which was a problem and combined that w/stem cell imo.................also there are approximately 180 lasers placed thru-out the USA and if on average each plc laser placed did one tmr procedure a week that would equate to almost 10k plc tmr procedure per year and don't forget about renal guard....................what do u think plc can do in the future ? and why are u investing in plc ? is it dark cloudy and snowing where u r ? look like the sky is falling ? lol. it's sunshine here baby
