Did you know that the Canada Council has just announced its new funding model? By 2017, 6 new non-disciplinary programs will replace the current 147 programs.
Main Content
The Jules Léger Prize for New Chamber Music ($7,500) is a competition for Canadian composers that is designed to encourage the creation of new chamber music and to foster its performance by Canadian chamber groups.
Hybridization! We live in times where the polyphony of canons and musical experiences is embraced to its full extent by a generation who is comfortable with rich, varied, personalized, random-access musical collections. This allows genuine, non-hierarchic cohabitations of musical styles that inevitably hybridize in very exciting new proposals, live and in the studio. This is far from the fantasized purity (and ranking) of modernism, or the (reactionary) juxtapositions of postmodernism. It is a truly rich cross-pollination through a fantastic dialogue of many canons and many roles, often within the same person: composers/improvisers/performers/curators/producer/audience/technician... noise/electro/improv/groove/epic/minimal/expressionist/etc... and all other art forms too!
John Hirsch Prize: Ravi Chander Jain and Vicky Côté
The John Hirsch Prize recognizes new and developing theatre directors who have demonstrated great potential for future excellence and exciting artistic vision. Two $6,000 prizes are awarded every two years, one for each of the Anglophone and Francophone theatre communities.
Toronto-based stage director Ravi Jain works in both small indie productions and large commercial theatre. His body of work successfully bridges the gap between commercial and avant-garde. One of his most celebrated works is A Brimful of Asha, a work he created with his mother, which premiered at the Tarragon Theatre in 2012. It has travelled across Canada and abroad, including a tour to the acclaimed Tricycle Theatre in London, England. His production of Accidental Death of an Anarchist at the Soulpepper Theatre Company in 2015 won the Dora Award for best production. As the founding artistic director of Why Not Theatre, Ravi has established himself as an artistic leader for his inventive productions, international producing/collaborations and innovative producing models which are aimed to better support emerging artists to make money from their art.
You are known for being an activist and for your work with youth to bring about positive change through the arts. What do you think theatre as an art form can bring to youth at risk, and how can it better reach out to them?
The theatre (institutions) has become a place that has valued certain voices and experiences over others. As a result there are huge populations who feel excluded.
The theatre as an art has had major impacts on a community level, in schools, community centres, in the daily lives of individuals through storytelling. We know it plays a role in people's lives and that it has an incredibly powerful impact on building communities. I've personally seen that across Canada and internationally. However, major institutions are becoming less relevant due to the fact that they are becoming less and less inclusive, be it through ticket price, content on stages, or most importantly who the creative voices are. So the question isn't about what can theatre do for youth or any community – we know what it can do. The question isn't how can it better reach out to them either. The question is, what kind of stories do we want to value? And who do we let tell that story.
To answer your question, I want to celebrate two very different Toronto-based companies Mammalian Diving Reflex and Jumblies theatre (and I am sure there are more out there across the country). Both are working people from very different communities, young and old. They are doing incredible work giving a platform to other people (young and old) to be the creative driver of a different voice.
John Hobday Award in Arts Management: Julie Fossitt and Kate Cornell
The John Hobday Awards recognize outstanding established and mid-career arts managers in Canadian professional arts organizations. Each year two prizes ($10,000) are awarded for Professional Development and Renewal and Mentorship.
What do you see as one of the biggest trends in marketing the arts? What kinds of skills do you hope to advance in order to take advantage of this trend?
The diversification of media offers incredible opportunities to promote the arts, but the past ten years have completely changed the face of how the stories of artists are told, shared and consumed. The arts offer a wealth of stories to share, and marketers have the daunting task to create that content and share it on multiple platforms. This is a real challenge with very few professional development opportunities in arts marketing in Canada and arts marketers continue to struggle to share best practices and keep abreast of fast-paced changes in the digital world.
Marketers are now generalists and must be able to reach potential consumers of all ages by translating stories to the right audience. I need to continue to learn about content marketing, data collection and marketing analytics to be able to constantly adapt and change to choose the right message for the right audience in the right medium. It is crucial to have a formal way to exchange information with other arts administrators in the country and to have the senior marketers passing along their expertise to emerging talent.
What do you think is the most important skill needed now in arts advocacy? How do you think your mentorship with Kathleen Sharpe will help you to advance this skill?
Arts advocacy requires many skills such as diplomacy, clarity, and charm. But it is always essential for arts advocates to listen first. I proposed to work with Kathleen Sharpe because she is a strong female role model, an energetic arts advocate, and an established executive with a positive outlook. Kathleen is adept at working at the local, provincial, and federal levels simultaneously. I admire her ability to see the potential in people and in governments. I know her insight will help me advance my advocacy skills.

Prix de Rome in Architecture-Emerging Practitioners: Yves Patrick Poitras
The Prix de Rome in Architecture for Emerging Practitioners ($34,000) is awarded to a recent graduate of a Canadian school of architecture who demonstrates exceptional potential in contemporary architectural design.
Yves Patrick Poitras, who studied at the University of Calgary's Faculty of Environmental Design, is exploring how hybrid forms of architecture (blending offices, homes, entertainment, etc.) can make communities stronger and more efficient. Yves will visit Berlin and Hong Kong, cities that have successfully re-purposed their urban fabric by creating unique hybrid spaces.
What lessons do you expect to learn in Berlin and Hong Kong that could benefit your home city of Calgary?
Calgary, like many Canadian cities, is a young city that has experienced new development. However, it has grown in size instead of density, leading to the development of separate neighborhoods where people live, work, and are entertained. As a result, almost no building or neighborhood is ever fully occupied at all hours of the day. The downtown core lies empty in the evenings and weekends while suburban neighborhoods are vacant in the mornings and afternoons. This has a tremendous consequence on energy use and street life.
In Hong Kong and Berlin, high density and re-appropriation of buildings for different uses has created urban fabrics that are in their whole, mixed use entities. In many instances, similar elements common to disparate building types have been aggregated to create hybrid building typologies. Lessons learnt from visiting and studying these examples may help us move away from developing cities as a series of isolated entities. Cities and buildings should instead be seen as a sum of parts that, when grafted together, can result in shared efficiencies and make our neighborhoods more dynamic at all hours of the day.

Oak Springs is an easy place to take river running photos.
One of the famous rapids of the Deschutes River, Oak Springs' big hole at the entry is just feet away from the edge of the road where photographers set up to capture carnage photos. They hardly even need a telephoto lens.
And they hardly get any carnage photos, if two hours of watching last Friday is an indicator. Most of the professionally guided rafts make it right through, though one raft did have a guide pop out the back.
And if the guide services don't want to chance having clients go for a swim, the guides can slip past the big hole on a smooth tongue of water, or run river left where the water is less turbulent. That's the route two rafts filled with Outward Bound students took through Oak Springs (wide left).
I've been through either side of the rapids and both make the heart flutter. Oak Springs has some powerful turbulence, but is Oak Springs the top choice of rapids in the "splash and giggle'' section of the Deschutes on either side of Maupin. Boxcar is another favorite.
Cast a vote in the poll to say which you prefer: Boxcar early in the run, or Oak Springs closer to the end. Boxcar was leading the last time I checked, but the photos here could sway the vote in favor of Oak Springs.
The river just wouldn't be the same without both of them. Learn more about the lower Deschutes River at the BLM website, boaterpass.com.
Here are links to my earlier Deschutes River posts:

1. Procure him a form of jewelry that corresponds to your very own love as well as can be an ever-present memory of it if you are both away from each other. Ring are commonly obtained for adult males however during my conferences with them they are mostly in favour of designer watches. The back of a watch is usually the optimal place to inscribe passionate words and phrases.
2. It is frequently declared, the approach to a man's core is by way of his belly. Take this to your heart and also prepare for him a romantic morning meal in the sack. You may each enjoy the foods and feel the closeness that solely a comfortable bed can offer. Sluggish Early sunday morning is great for this present.
3. Get a photograph of oneself, inscribe on the back your own words and phrases of affection, and thus encase it in a classy frame. People will see your beautiful snap nonetheless only he may know exactly what is written on the opposite side; this strengthens your current bond together with allows him learn what your heart considers of the man.
4. Love letters may be old-fashioned in the heady realm of on-line e-cards however they are, nonetheless, an incomparable strategy to convey your current love. Most people are too self conscious to acknowledge our real feelings of love. In a passion correspondence we can put away embarrassment and speak from our hearts. Your current romantic truths can be a present he will keep and so read over and over for the rest of his lifetime.
5. Devote the whole day jointly and let him learn how you feel regarding him. Say to him simply how much you adore them. Go out so pretty much enjoy yourselves together. Have a meal, take a walk, choose to talk, have a good laugh. Allow not one person else or no everyday issues go into your world. Give emphasis just one one another.
6. Find some time alone and make him a video of yourself. Throughout the last 5 yrs this happens to be significantly preferred. And, no, I do not signify a dirty video (though you can and I am sure he would like it!); I am talking about a relevant video wherein you chat, frankly, about your emotions for them. The same as love correspondence this is certainly your opportunity to discuss from the heart as well as grant your guy something he will treasure all the time.
7. Do you remember your initial particular date with him? Can you come up with another thing he may possibly like that might be a symbol of that particular date? What about a Cd disk which includes a selected piece which was playing during the time? Maybe a film on Digital video disc which you saw at the movie theater? Prompt him of the unique beginning and also just how far you have come.
8. Use some hot, but tasteful, photos of your self. Ponder sexy fine lingerie. On the flipside of each one photo, inscribe some thing you love about him. show him you cherish him and also find him sexually eye-catching.
10. A warm massage therapy tool kit with a assurance of countless evening-massages to occur is a formidable favorite among gents. There may be some thing concerning getting a home massage that gets lovers nearer with each other.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
For a minute there back in March, it looked like San Francisco's Black Rebel Motorcycle Club was going to be this year's "savior of rock and roll." The band, named after Marlon Brando's Wild Ones biker gang, has since been eclipsed in that department by the Strokes, but BRMC has still garnered more good buzz than the audience at a Cheech and Chong film retrospective. And this is a rare case in which you can really believe the hype. Peter Hayes, Robert Turner and Nick Jago have made a debut that is beautiful and dreamy, with sonic layers on some tracks and straight-up, fuzzed-out rock on others.
Call it psychedelia with balls. And though the influences are apparent (Love and Rockets, Jesus and Mary Chain, Verve, T.Rex), the group manages to make its own mark while jettisoning much of the arty pretense. Hayes's slashing guitar and voice make tracks like "Love Burns" and the punked-out "Whatever Happened to My Rock and Roll" burn with intensity. Turner's greasy glories and Sabbath-style fat bass rumblings on "Spread Your Love" practically dare you not to turn up the volume.
But the band is even more adept at a kind of modern psychedelia with swirling grooves and rich lyrical imagery. "Too Real" and "Salvation" sound like Beatles tracks left behind at the maharishi's compound, while the tougher "Awake" is buoyed again by Turner's bass. The record's most lolling and atmospheric tracks, "As Sure as the Sun" and "Rifles," have slow-paced tempos that float gently by. In true psychedelic fashion, many of the tracks feature lengthy intros and codas, as if the actual songs were just snatches of a much larger picture.

Apple has filed a motion in a California court to prevent Samsung selling its latest smartphone, the Galaxy S III in the US, according to court papers.
The filing, made Tuesday in the California district court in San Jose, was posted online on Wednesday by Florian Mueller, a leading patent law blogger.
In the filing, Apple asked the court to add the new phone to its existing complaint against the Samsung Nexus, which the South Korean company developed in conjunction with Google.
"Apple has been able to obtain the Galaxy S III sold in the United Kingdom and determined that this device clearly infringes on at least two of the Apple patents at issues in the preliminary injunction motion for the exact same reasons as the Galaxy Nexus," Apple wrote in its filing.
Apple claimed that the new phone, which is yet to go on sale in the US, could cause it "irreparable harm," citing press reports that mobile companies had already sold more than nine million units in pre-orders.

32 anti-angiogenesis foods & science
Blood vessels, literally the lifelines in our bodies, are essential to delivering the nutrients our organs need to survive. A term commonly referred to as angiogenesis. But angiogenesis also has a deadly side effect: they can also feed cancerous growths.
Treatments for halting the growth of cancer-feeding blood vessels could be key to treating tumors. This term is known as anti-angiogenesis or angiogenesis inhibitor.
Please have rushed to identify beneficial foods in our diet. The Angiogenesis Foundation has listed 32 Dietary sources of naturally-occurring anti-angiogenic substances.
There is also aggressive on-going scientific research to identify anti-angiogenesis compounds for cancer treatment. Product such as Geldanamycin, 17-AAG, 17-DMAG, Radicicol, Herbimycin A, Mizoribine. A.G. Scientific's success with a combination of fermentation & synthesis has allowed us to build a catalog of over 160 antibiotics, many with promising anti-cancer potential.

The Legend of Zelda: The Oracle of Seasons is the best game in the world
1. It's been announced for a few months now that it's an on-rails shooter. If you were so hyped about the game before, why didn't you know about this?Originally Posted by Doc141
2. On-Rails shooters are not out of date. They're still played in arcades even today. There's been quite a few successful ones. Time Crisis, House of the Dead and Ghost Squad for example.
3. Goldeneye was originally going to be an on-rails shooter for the SNES. When it got bumped back to the N64, they had more power with the system and could do more. They essentially had the power to do a FPS, and decided to. It was not to do with the fact that the genre was wearing thin, but a challenge to push the game to test the console.
4. It's not a port. Umbrella Chronicles has not been released for arcades before, it's completely new and exclusive to the Wii. Now Ghost Squad on the other hand is coming to the Wii and is a port, but has some really nice enhanced features (internet and LAN play along with 4 way multiplayer).
5. I don't think the zapper is neccessary, just like the Wheel isn't neccessary for Mario Kart. Also, I think the zapper may come with the game.
6. It was an E3 build. Nothing looks as good as when its released at E3. They always include some more minor details or complete graphical overhaul.
I hope when they do spruce the game up a bit, they'll show it and you become interested in it. It's not good to say "I won't play that because it's an on-rails shooter".
Mail me if you want to add me on either the Wii or the 360.
I think it really depends.. I mean, people like you prefer RE4 style, but some people don't.
Actually I really was surprised when I saw the gamplay video for the same reason. But then what I thought was that since RE4 is like that, this one should be like this for people who just want to shoot.
I remember reading a dude's question in Wiichat asking "Does RE4 has puzzles and stuff or is it just shooting zombies cuz I don't like puzzles"..
Now that Umbrella Chronicles is going to be out soon, that dude and everyone has a choice, right?
Just look at the bright side .
I will not be buying RE:4, I will be buying RE:UC
RE:4 is a very good game yes but there are a few things that make me want RE:UC more, I havn't played on a rail shooter for quite a long time and it will be fun remembering some old times and the story fits with the feeling too because of the Umbrella Corp. and the mystery surrounding it. You moan about RE:UC being a port, when it isn't 100% new game but RE:4 is a port, are you bothered about that?
RE:UC is also a little simple, with the pointing and shooting, it won't require walking round for a long time collecting objects, checking for the next part of the game etc. the simple feeling of it will make it a game that'll I will be playing
im an idiot

Yeah I am very excited for this game, and am looking forward to playing it the way you do. Like eskiemong said, you have RE4 if you want that kind of game, and you have RE:UC if you want that kind of game.

I think it looks okay mabye fun at first. But what i really want is a classic RE game like RE1 2 & 3 none of this RE4 bull shit.
Now dont get me wrong i LOVE RE4 but not as a RE game. They should have given it a different name. I miss the absurrd but challanging puzzles. I miss running from zombies to save your ammo. (and dont say you have to conserve ammo in RE 4 because really u dont if u look hard enough) I miss how a game like RE could scare the crap out of you.

Bishop leaving Vt. after trying tenure
ROCHESTER, N.Y. The Roman Catholic bishop who oversaw the settlement of dozens of priest sex-abuse cases in Vermont and the sale of prime church property to help pay for those settlements was appointed Wednesday to be the next bishop of the Diocese of Rochester.
During a meeting with the news media, Bishop Salvatore Matano said the sex-abuse cases were painful for everyone involved and that he would focus on bringing people back to the church.
I hope we will be able in some small way to bring back our brothers and sisters estranged from the church who no longer worship among us, said Matano, currently the bishop of the Diocese of Burlington, which includes the entire state of Vermont.
I pray that those who hear these words, if you are not practicing the faith, please come home, come home, we miss you. Come home, the Lord is awaiting you, he said.
Matanos appointment as the bishop of Rochester was announced by the Vatican. He will assume his new duties in January.
Before being named Burlington bishop in 2005, the 67-year-old native of Providence, R.I., held church posts in Washington and his hometown.
During his years in Burlington, Matano oversaw the settlement of dozens of priest sex-abuse cases, most involving a priest who served in Vermont during the 1970s. To help pay the $29.6 million in settlements reached during his tenure, the church sold some of its most valuable property.
The property included the churchs former Burlington headquarters, the last undeveloped piece of property in the city overlooking Lake Champlain, and Camp Holy Cross on the lakes Malletts Bay.
In Rochester, Matano will replace Bishop Emeritus Matthew H. Clark, who led the diocese for 33 years before retiring in July 2012.
The Rochester Diocese has about 300,000 worshippers in more than 100 parishes from Rochester to the Pennsylvania state line, including the Finger Lakes region.MORE IN Vermont NewsEven to skeptics, the presidential campaign of Sen.

JERSEY CITY - The Garden State could see another new casino, but nowhere near Atlantic City.
A proposal would put a $5 billion casino along the Jersey City waterfront, not far from Liberty State Park.
Lawmakers are considering a pitch from a venture capitalist that also includes a 95-story hotel, residential units, a ferris wheel and a race car stadium.
The investor, Paul Fireman, is reported to be a former Reebok executive.
Even though the plan is in its beginning stages, some are already concerned with traffic and crowds. Others say it could be good for the area.
The state would have to change laws that restrict casinos from being built outside of Atlantic City.
Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop says he supports the plan. "You're talking about 25,000 jobs and you're talking about tax relief for Jersey City."
Many are questioning the idea of bringing gaming to an area outside of Atlantic City, after the recent announcement of the Showboat casino's closure.
"I don't view this as competition with Atlantic City," Fulop says. "I view this as competition with casino expansion in Pennsylvania and New York."
The mayor says the casino could be on track for development within a year and a half.

Skip to comments.MoveOn.org anti-Semitism scandal spreading
Posted on 09/14/2006 5:09:24 PM PDT by Winged Hussar
Judging by its actions in the wake of this scandal and the tone of the paper, we can say with "a margin of safety" that MoveOn still has a Jewish problem. So do the candidates who fail to renounce the support MoveOn is giving them.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
The (whisper) Joooooooossssss do.
Just a bunch of Soros losers...
If you read this piece, it also becomes abundantly clear that moveon also has a lying problem.
American Muslims are growing a bit unhappy with the Republican party. Could these postings be a sign of greater movement to the loony left by American Muslims?
All to the good!
So what do YOU think about this Hussar?
The beautful thing about that is that a vote for the Dems is also a vote for abortion, women's rights, and gay marriage. That would present a moral dilemma to even the most ardent Jihadist. Of course, they could take a vow to slaughter them all after the conquest.
I don't think this is a zot.
It's perfectly logical that at 0.22% of the world's population, we control the whole wide world. /sarc
That reminds me...whose turn is it to bring the donuts to the next VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY meeting?
Fine screen name, yet lacking in insight.
Muslims who live in western countries have been aligning themselves with the hard Left for a while now.
The Stalinist-Saladinist pact is real.
Well, with we Catholics helping them, I mean, who knows. (Do I need a sarcasm tag on this?)
We had somone called "txroadkill" on the bubble for the Krispy Kremes and coffee. You did not get the memo?
Not everyone is as informed as us.
I've also heard of the possibility of life on other planets as well.
(Maybe they don't have acess to FR)
In fact, the entire Left is a cesspool of hatred and deceit--including its Political Machine (the Democrat Party) and its Propaganda Machine (the Mainstream Newsmedia).
Is it okay if we are a bit unhappy with American Muslims?
At least I now know why my posts on their website haven't been appearning.....
Oh rats, I just knew I was getting that wrong. Sitting in the corner now.
Welcome to Free Republic!
I don't know that, but I do know that I'm bringing the coffee.
(Mental note to self - contact Rush and have him ship me a bunch of that IHOP french vanilla coffee creamer. Damnit, now what was that updated transponder frequency I was supposed to punch into my new Version 2.06 decoder ring to get the direct line to EIB, anyway? I just hate it when Karl decides to have fun and change things all around!)
This is the VRWC, BEER BEER BEER...donuts are for cops.
Now, I don't know a thing about this scandal.
Links anyone?
Awesome png!
feel free to print it out as a bumper sticker
Hmmmm....looks like the folks at moron.org have distilled the world's problem down to Bush, and the Jooos.
"The Israelite religion [is] nauseating."
Karl Marx's letter to Arnold Ruge
"What is the secular basis of Judaism? Practical need, self-interest." "What is the wordly cult of the Jew? Haggling. What is his wordly god? Money!..." "Money is the jealous god of Israel before whom no other god may exist. Money degrades all the gods of mankind and converts them into commodities...." "What is contained abstractly in the Jewish religion -- contempt for theory, for art, for history, for man as an end in himself..." "The social emancipation of the Jew is the emancipation of society from Jewishness." From Karl Marx's essay on The Jewish question
"...since the Mensheviks were the faction of the Jews and the Bolsheviks that of native Russians, it would be a good thing to have a pogrom in the Party."
Josef Stalin's remarks reproduced from his 1907 underground newspaper
"In the Doctors' plot [Stalin's final purge to kill the three million Jews of Russia] of 1952-1953, a majority of those accused were Jews, but some were not. The Jewish element was publicly emphasized but it was under the guise of a link with "Zionism...."1 (emphasis added)
1. The Great Terror
pp 66
"The Jews are descendents of of apes and pigs."
Arab textbooks directed to little children who later mouth these obscenities
Oscene leftwing, anti-Semitic protests. It's no wonder that even far back as the 1960s that a person who witnessed the Nazi era thought the New Left were the Nazis redux.
"Anti-Semitism is the Socialism of fools."
August Bebel (not Jewish btw....)
"Anti-Semitism is the intellectualism of stupid people."
Mary McCarthy
I just hope the Sister who taught you elementary school grammar doesn't read this.
?, actually a pretty good post for a newbie, I think.
No zot necessary.
Back to remedial zot candidate identification class for you!
No way man, last time I brought beer everyone got drunk and started posting on moveon.
Wow! The frustration of this dilemma could make them explode. . .Oh, wait, they do that anyway.
Before we all get on our high horses here, we have some of our own prejudices here to clean out.
I posted a topic ( found here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1677375/posts ) about former terrorists that changed their lives and now tour the world speaking against the IslamoFacists and received some real vitriol against all Muslims in the replies. This was not deleted, was challenged only by a few (granted maybe only a few saw the posts and maybe the Admin/Mods missed it (I did not report it), but the hate was there none the less.
I am a conservative and I am more than happy to let anyone read all my posts and decide for themselves where my sympathies are.
This hatred some here hold towards all Muslims is wrong and we should rebuke it as much as we all rebuke those who talk against the Jewish people.
No race, no people are totally encompassed by their fringe.
I also believe that the Muslim population bears some responsibility for the public perception that is out there by not rebuking strongly enough or publicly enough to distance themselves with no equivocations from those that practice barbarism in their religions name, this however does not excuse some people hears reactions and hatred that they express too the entirety of the Muslim population.
What we think of as bad or wrong, "The only good Jew is a dead Jew" is just as wrong as, "The only good Muslim is a dead Muslim".
You promised to never tell. Pearl makes my head hurt ever since. Figuring out them clues inside the bottlecaps is what done it. It was all fun n games until the other three passed out and the webcam started working. Who knew that a liberal wench would do such things?
How does one spell Joooooooossssss ? with 5 "s"s or 6?
Good editorial from the Washington Times holding the Democrats accountable for their antiSemitism
"In addition, Sean Hannity mentioned the widening scandal on his radio program yesterday. MoveOn.org is getting in deeper and deeper."
Their two main sources of revenue are George Soros and the WWP. What did you expect?
Silly man, only Republicans are rascist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"That reminds me...whose turn is it to bring the donuts to the next VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY meeting?"
Didn't Al Haig say he was bringing them?
"I am puzzled by two things. Firstly Soros is of Jewish heritage if I am not mistaken. "
Many Jews from Europe were Socialists. However, they were also true socialists that didn't consider power, but real socialism.
They were corrupted by money, like most socialists in power.

Posted on 10/25/2012 8:53:50 AM PDT by NautiNurse
Late season Hurricane Sandy churning poleward off the Eastern U.S. coast.
Sea Surface Temps
Public Advisories
NHC Tropical Discussions
Satellite Images
Buoy Data: Current Observations
There is a group out on Robin Sage in Pineland, Green Beret trainees from Fort Bragg. They finish around the 31st. I wonder how this will affect them.
You can get premixed 2-cycle gas & oil in quart cans now most anyplace they sell lawn equipment. Fuel stabilizer is mixed in. It's expensive compared to mixing your own, but hassle-free.
Don't forget an extra bar, bar oil, chains, spark plugs ( Many! ) and files.
And be careful- I've run chainsaws all my life & I hate the damned things.
Perfect rationalization for NOT worrying about chopping up that last half ton of leaves that blew down within six hours of my last mowing/mulching !
They'll likely either blow down to the Susquehanna, or the Susquehanna will come up here and get 'em !
Closest approach to Florida is happening roughly now. Center of circulation is clearing the Bahamas. Will be curious to see if Sandy can get wrapped up today and tomorrow... 'cuz it's pretty messed up - which is a good thing.
Heads up FRiend, this is going to get interesting.
That's an understatement!
All DelMarVa interests should be in full prep mode right now.... including those that could be susceptible to inland flooding forced by storm surge near the top of the Bay.
Governors of Virginia and Maryland have declared states of emergency in advance of the storm.
¿surf or serf?
(not a weather geek .. fyi only ;-)
dammit - hurricanes just suck - feeder band just came thru - put me and mt boat over about 10 degree heel :~(
You ain't kidding about the leaves. Our building that we used to be in South of York still has our servers in it. It is abandon so the drains of the roof are most likely clogged. Just waiting for all hell to break loose, water has to go somewhere.
This graphic is based on the latest European model run since it has been "most right' so far. If that turns out to be correct, then all waterways between Washington and Richmond will be impacted, though the area near King George, VA and SE from there could be the hardest hit.
But use this graphic as a guide -- as I say, the exact track is still unknown, plus it's going to be a large storm: Delaware Bay could very well get this instead with only a modest change in either the approach angle OR the timing of the NW turn... a difference in a couple of hours would change the landfall by 150 miles.
Hope everyone in the path is busy getting prepped today! Looks like a doozy of a storm.
I'm not gonna redo the graphic from post 68... it's too big, and I don't wanna be "chasing" the models all weekend. Suffice it for now to say that almost all coastal areas will be impacted, and areas within 50-60 miles north of any landfall point will suffer some nasty inland flooding. That pic still illustrates the reasons way... regardless of who exactly ends up getting hit.
And really... if Sandy approaches via a more northerly trek, there would be a real danger of beach damage over a vast swath as it parallels the coast.
You will be shocked at the cost of the pre-mixed products. I can't imagine why anyone would buy them. You can get "ratio-rite" products that make mixing easy.
Two strokes will run on an amazing range of mixing ratios and even non-specific petroleum or vegetable-based lubricants. In the old days it wasn't that unusual to mix ordinary motor oil if a two-stroke lubricant wasn't available, although you would never think of doing that now.
Each motor has an optimal ratio but even these can be debated. I personally have had motors whose specifications ranged from 20:1 to 100:1. The specs are developed based on operating temperature, jetting, performance requirements, load characteristics and metallurgy (bearing types, mostly). Correct jetting is often much more important than correct mixing ratio. The mixing ratio does affect the jetting, but the change is rather small within reason.
In a pinch, most of these motors can be run on ratios much more lean than specified. In fact, crankcases generally have quite a bit of oil sludge that provides adequate lubrication at low rpm, even with no premix at all!
Just buy a gallon of marine 2T oil and mix it at 50:1 and everything will be fine for the vast majority of motors. Even my air-cooled motors seem to tolerate that OK. I have generally stopped using tailored ratios except when spark plug appearance or spooge acccumulation suggests otherwise.
Max sustained winds 75mph, 971mb
Moving N at 7mph
On/Off Hurricane List Mash Here-->
I've several Stihl tools, including the go-to chainsaw, all of which specify 50:1.
Also have an inherited Jonesred chainsaw and trimmer, both of which are crap, and they specify 40:1.
For all the times I've had to F with that J saw, am gonna try pouring some 50:1 down its throat and free up a gas can !
maniacal LOL
Older motors, like my 70's dirt bikes, were designed for the lubricants of the time. Hence, the 20:1 recommendation. Even the cheapest Walmart premix now is far superior to what was available then.
But, by all means, if you know in advance that a heavy load scenario is likely, especially with high operating temperatures —say like a dirt bike tractoring through deep sand on a hot day — go by the manufacturer's recommendations or reasonably close to it (i.e. don't use 80:1 if the owner's manual calls for 40:1).
I don't have a gas chain saw but being air-cooled and used in high-stress conditions I imagine the use can fit into the "severe" category quite easily.
So, apportioned into 128 ozs of fuel, the difference per oz. of gas is .005 oz of oil ?
Yep, worth a try . . worst case, the J will die and can be tossed with a clear(ish) conscience !
Never a 'serf', pal! I'll go out with guns blazing, as long as I don't shoot myself in the foot ... again ............................................................. FRegards
Any body out there going duck hunting right before it hits?
I'll bet the birds will be feeding heavy the next couple days....

Statement as of 9:48 PM EDT on October 26, 2012
... Potential historic storm for central Pennsylvania...
As of Friday evening... Hurricane Sandy was moving just north of
the Bahamas on a track that is expected to take it off the
southeast Atlantic coast... before being drawn back northwestward
to make landfall along the mid Atlantic coast... somewhere between
the Delmarva Peninsula and Long Island.
Sandy is expected to intensify as it interacts with an upper level
trough moving out of the Great Lakes... and indications are that the
region could experience a widespread damaging storm... possibly of
historic proportions.
Widespread damaging high winds are possible. The storm track is
still uncertain... but the worst case scenario would have the storm
moving into the Delmarva Peninsula during the day Monday... which
would produce a damaging wind threat that would develop during the
day Monday and possibly last into Tuesday.
In addition... widespread heavy rains... possibly as much as 6 to 10
inches in some spots... would cause significant flooding on rivers and
streams across the region. Rain can be expected to begin during
the day Sunday or Sunday evening... and continue into Monday when
it will become heavy at times.
This has the potential to be a large and record setting
storm... with widespread wind damage and flooding the most likely
threats. The combination of the heavy rain and wind will create
the potential for widespread power outages and significant
flooding. At this time... the most likely time frame for the worst
of the rain and wind looks to be late Monday into Tuesday. This
means there is still time to prepare.
Some suggested pre storm actions are: yada yada yada . . .

... Potential historic storm for central Pennsylvania...
As of early Saturday morning... Hurricane Sandy has been
temporarily downgraded to a strong tropical and was located
350 miles to the southeast of Charleston South Carolina. This
storm is forecast to strengthen back into a minimal hurricane by
late Sunday night as it moves over the warmer waters of the Gulf
Stream east of the Outer Banks . . .
Per FOX News........back to hurricane strength.
Hurricane bump.
Just you wait...they'll be sorry!

11 AM advisory has the pressure down to 958mb. That is more like the pressure for a Cat 3 hurricane. Tropical storm-force winds span 660 miles.
Everyone stay safe. I'll be watching from afar as it goes over my home. Hoping this storm doesn't live up to the previews!
Are you really in Japan! Very cool!
Do folks understand what will happen in the way of power outages when this windfield moves into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast? EVERY FREEPER from the NC/VA border north to Maine and out to the PA/Ohio border should have at least two weeks of potable water on hand, or the means to produce such. And non-perishable food.
This is not Weather Channel hype. There simply is no precedent in the modern meterological record for this type of storm. Maybe it won't be bad. But every indication is that it will be.
I think you may be right and Im hoping the hype is bigger than the storm this is the rare combination of a hurricane with a very deep central core merging with another strong system and coming into the coast a nearly a right angle, during a full moon to boot. The 1991 Perfect Storm caused millions of dollars in damage and that didnt even hit a populous area, IIRC, didnt even come on shore.
Unbelievably there are some people here claiming this is nothing but hype purely manufactured and faked by the media in order to help Obama and that nothing will happen other than a light breeze and some rain showers.
What people need to understand is that this storm is massive, some 800 miles wide, has a huge wind field and, perhaps even more importantly, untypical for a hurricane or noreaster, it will not move through quickly. Two days of tropical storm force winds combined with torrential rains and an unprecedented storm surge in the most populous area of the country is not a good thing. BTW, parts of WV could get up to 50 of snow!
EVERYONE in the impacted region needs to be prepared for power outages that could last more than two weeks. And the most critical factor is to have enough potable water on hand for that time period. A gallon per person per day. Fill everything that can hold water. Now.
Northern Virginia Romney rally scheduled for tomorrow has been postponed. Virginia Gov McDonnell says first responders need to be preparing for storm instead. So Romney is going to Ohio.
If nothing much happens and I dont lose power, none of things will go to waste. And Im keeping an eye on the forecast and if the you know what appears ready to hit the fan, I have my go bag ready and will drive ten minutes away to my nieces house before things get too bad, taking my provisions with me. My nieces husband is a prepper and a camper and works for an HVAC co. and has not only a gas powered generator but a generator he can run off his diesel work truck.
The grocery store was well stocked however the checkout line was long but not because the store was crowded but because they only had two checkout lines and one express lane open - ugg. I did observe a few others like me, stocking up on the types of things I bought but then I also saw people buying frozen foods and fresh meats and other perishable foods.

Loveis the most undeniable truth of this universe. Without Love this world is like a hell. This world is beautiful and enchanting just because of love. MAN has a fear of death, because he does not want to go away from his love. Love is selfless, it is not proud not superficial. It is not an artificial act but a true feeling from the bottom of the heart. It can be understood more easily when it is expressed in words. Love is a very complicated matter, the word chosen by a person to express his emotions should be very keen and heart touching so that his beloved one may not get it wrong and understand his feelings correctly as he wanted to be………
Love quotes are an easiest way to show your feelings in a charming way, as they realize your partner that how important he/she is for you. You may not be always with him/her; these words that you say to him/her with love will be a source of comfort and delight forever. Love unexpressed is a pain in itself…as it leaves a space in your soul, which after passing time cannot be filled ever. Love makes a man immortal…It lives in the heart of someone forever. So just do it and get eternity.
IF you want to stay in the beautiful heart of your beloved one, express your feelings in a very fascinating and imaginative manner. The online love quotations and quotes provide you this opportunity.
Philosophy of Love:
Love is a sensation which is only felt and the love which needs to be expressed is not true love; this can be only a time pass or have some selfishness. There is no doubt that every person falls in love and also want to give best of its powers to serve love and make beloved happy. This can only be true if you are totally sincere and faithful to your beloved. Though words such as true and false are not valuable and need not to relate with sacred word of love as love is love and love is always real. But environment of our society forces us to use these suffixes and prefixes for love.
When someone finds love, his or her life totally changes. Lover feels happiness and remains mum in beloved thoughts. Such kind of things make lovers love strong for beloved and it creates a sensation in heart all the time that there is someone special which is more important than anything in the world. And this is the real spirit for lover therefore love is considered as blind and has power to do anything as will is everything. Where there is will everything can be possible. So, love makes man strong too. Love give reason to live, make merry and power to fulfill all desires of beloved.
Love is a passion, a sensation, and magic.Love quotes depict your emotions in a special way. Where feelings are yours but words are chosen from a very well – known and well -organized source that are the online quotes showing your greater attachment with your partner.
Life and love are two inter convertible words. Life cannot be even imagined without love, love and life quotes show their relation in very inspiring way.
Family is the most important part of our life. Family love is also as important as sky with moon and stars. Family love quotes show a greater part of love that you have in your heart for your parents, and other relatives.
Fun and Humor are also a part of life…life becomes dull and boring without it. Love also sometimes looks very dry and old without this funniness. So here are some funny love quotes to renew your love and to express your experience of love in a funny and humorous manner.
Romance is the enchanting feeling of excitement and mystery associated with love, which shows a greater attachment, the deep affection that goes beyond all the human bonds. Here are some Romantic love quotes.
New love quotes present a completely new style to express your feelings, new words, new thoughts and a fresh love depiction.
Famous love quotes can interpret your emotions in a very unique manner as these quotes are written on the basis of a great experience by some of the great personalities of the world.
The ability to love is a great virtue. It gives you comfort, happiness and peace of mind. When one falls in love one feels a great change in personality. Falling in love quotes make you and your partner realize of the mutual understanding.
Inspirational love quotes inspire your thoughts to bring a more passion in your emotions that you want to convey to your beloved.
What is love?? It is a most difficult question in the world. But what you feel for someone with the purity of your heart is called love. To recognize these feelings what is love? Quotes help you to find out your hidden desires.
The traditional love sayings are a treasure to give someone who is very close to your heart.
If one understands love then this question does not arise that what is true love??? Because love in itself is a true feeling if the feelings are based on a lie these are not love. So the true love quotes make you understand of your true feelings.
Lost love quotes show emotions and reasons for those who unfortunately could not reach the destiny of their love.
Live laugh love quotes are as meaningful as breath for life and as soul for body
I love you quotes can explain the feelings why we use these three words I Love You.

X Games 17 got underway last night at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles with the Moto X Step-Up, Best Whip and Best Trick competitions. And records were broken.
Brian Deegan broke Tommy Clowers 11-year-old record in the Step-Up when his cleared the 35'6″ mark, but it wouldn't stand. Later on, Matt Buyten cleared the bar at 37′, and he made it look easy in the process. It was Buyten's fourth gold medal in the Step-Up competition.Ronnie Renner ended up second at 36'5″, followed by Deegan (35'6″) and Myles Richmond (35'6″), who were both credited with third place. Clowers ended up fifth with 34'6″ and Todd Potter sixth with 33'0″
.The fans voted Jeremy Stenberg the winner in the Best Whip competition, getting 27% of the vote, which topped Todd Potter's 24%. Jarryd McNeil (22%), Josh Hansen (11%), Thomas Pages (9%) and Nate Adams (7%) made up the rest of the field.In Best Trick, 19-year-old Jackson Strong of Australia landed the first ever front flip at the X Games and went home with the gold. Cam Sinclair took second, followed by Josh Sheehan, Taka Higashino and Todd Potter.
Both Travis Pastrana and Mark Monea were knocked out of the competition with injury. Monea, who was heavily favored to win the Best Track, fell and called it a night. Pastrana also fell and reportedly broke his right foot and ankle.

The Geffen is a fabulous venue for any musical event.
Acclaimed actress, producer, writer and Geffen Playhouse alum Rita Wilson is returning to the theater – this time to sing. For one night only, the award-winning stage and screen star will perform songs from her debut Decca Records solo album AM/FM, featuring iconic hits from the '60s and '70s ranging from classic love songs to folk-rock tunes. Rita Wilson AM/FM in Concert will benefit both the Geffen Playhouse and The Actors Fund, a national human services organization that helps all professionals in performing arts and entertainment, and will be followed by a postshow wine and dessert reception.
Wilson's new album AM/FM is a compilation of her take on her favorite songs from childhood – from the AM radio recordings she first experienced in the back seat of her parents' car to the FM singer-songwriter jams she sung while at the wheel herself – and features guest artists Chris Cornell, Sheryl Crow, Jimmy Webb, Jackson Browne and Faith Hill, among others.

Around South County: Bill Clinton, Sanchez, Krom, Fox, and more…
by Mike Pouraryan •
As I continue to travel around South County on my listening tour, I have been hungry for news on the election front. As it stands today, unless one looked at the actual signs, you wonder if an election actually existed. There is news, though: Giuliani is coming to OC to campaign for Van Tran and Carly Fiorina. But, there is also a bigger start coming to town too: Bill Clinton!!!

Around Town in South County….
by Mike Pouraryan •
It has been an interesting week, to say the least!!! I spent that Saturday Night dropping by a Community Meet and Greet for the Capistrano Candidates. It is great that the grass root support is starting to build up in a major way. For those who have been driving around town, the signs have been springing up everywhere. It appears that the opposition seems to be silent. As the discourse continued, someone handed me an email from one of the current incumbents. It touted how they were "conservative" and "for reform", while the current slate was "Pro-Union". They seemed to forget that two of the key players have Union Support and that the focus had to be on the kids. It was still interesting reading, though.
Taking the Fight to Orange County
by Editorial Staff •
Orange County is one of the most pivotal electoral battlegrounds in the nation as Democrats struggle to maintain majorities in the State Assembly and Congress. Despite minimal support from the Democratic Party leadership, Orange County has great potential to fare well in the November elections. The Obama 2008 campaign did better in Orange County than any other Democratic presidential candidate in history, raising eyebrows among some party activists.

And that's scary. The glaring lack of facts is appalling. To this observer, these people represent exactly what it is they themselves fear but somehow cannot recognize. Yet they vote and get others to vote, also. If you want to prevent from occurring what it is that these people are whining about, hook up with…

The Seven Shaman Principles
© 1990 Serge Kahill King
brought to you by the Children of Ra Temple
The World is What You Think It Is
Positive thoughts attract positive people and events, and negative thoughts attract negative people and events.
Corollary: Everything is a dream
Dreams are real and reality is a dream. The only test we use for a reality check is whether or not someone else experiences it. Hallucination means "your dream doesn't match my dream." "Reality" to a shaman is a mass hallucination, or a shared dream. If this life is a dream and if we can wake up fully within it, then we can change the dream by changing our dreaming.
Corollary: All systems are arbitrary
All meanings are made up and the Absolute Truth is whatever you decide it is. What matters is how well the system works for you, not how true it is (which is an arbitrary concept).
There are No Limits
We experience two kinds of limitations: creative and filtered.
Creative limitation assumes the purposeful establishment of limits within an infinite universe in order to create particular experiences, made by God or our own Higher Selves. These enable us to experience life as humans on Earth (to play by that particular set of rules - breaking the rules changes to another game).
Filtered limitations are imposed by ideas and beliefs that inhibit creativity rather than enhance it, like beliefs that engender hopelessness, helplessness, revenge and cruelty. They generate focus without the potential for positive action.
Corollary: Everything is connected
The usual metaphor is a web of interdependence.
Corollary: Anything is possible
All you have to do is believe. However, because you are not alone in the Universe, the degree to which something can be shared depends on the beliefs of others around you.
Corollary: Separation is a useful illusion
Pure empathy makes you as helpless as the one suffering. Fear make you lose sight of your role as dreamweaver.
Energy Flows Where Attention Goes
Meditation and hypnosis are simply different techniques for doing the same thing - refocusing your attention toward more positive beliefs and expectations. As states, both are identical conditions of sustained focused attention.
Those aspects of your present experience which seem enduring are the effect of habitual sustained focused attention carried on by your subconscious.
Corollary: Attention goes where energy flows
Attention is attracted to all kinds of high energy intensity.
Corollary: Everything is energy
Thought is energy and one kind of energy can be converted into another kind of energy.
Now is the Moment of Power
Karma exists and operates only in the present moment. It is your beliefs, decisions, and actions today about yourself and the world around you that give you what you have and make you what you are.
Thanks to memory we may carry over habits of body and mind from day to day, but each day is a new creation and any habit can be changed at any present moment - even if it isn't easy.
You select out of the immense resources of your gene pool those characteristics that best reflect your present beliefs and intentions. Your parents/social background have nothing to do with your present, but what you believe about them now and how you react to those beliefs does.
Corollary: Everything is relative
You define "now" based on your focus (second, hour, year, lifetime).
Corollary: Power increases with sensory attention
Many people living today aren't even here - most of their attention is focused on the past or the future. To the degree they diminish their awareness of the present moment, their power and effectiveness in the present also decreases.
To Love is to Be Happy With
Love exists to the degree that you are happy with the object of your love. The unhappy part comes from fear, anger and doubt. To be deeply in love means to be deeply connected, and the depth and clarity of the connection increases as fear, anger and doubt are removed.
Corollary: Love increases as judgment decreases
Criticism kills relationships; praise builds and rebuilds them. When you give praise you reinforce the good and it grows. When you criticize you reinforce the bad and it grows.
Corollary: Everything is alive, aware and responsive
You subconscious takes any praise or criticisms it hears to heart, even if it's directed elsewhere, even if you're saying it. Each criticism separates you from and decreases your awareness of what you criticize, until you end up responding to a secondary creation of your own that may no longer resemble the original. When someone criticizes you, praise yourself to counteract it.
All Power Comes From Within
For every event that you experience you creatively attract it through your beliefs, desires, fears and expectations, and then react to it habitually or respond to it consciously. This does not mean that you are to blame for your abuse or injury, because you were probably not conscious of your negative beliefs, attitudes and expectations. It also does not mean the other person is innocent.
Corollary: Everything has power
You do not have ALL the power in the world - everyone has the same power. The good news - you can work with these powers.
Corollary: Power comes from authority
Confident authority is the key to conscious creation.
Effectiveness is the Measure of Truth
The means determine the end, not the ends justify the means. What is really important is what works.
Corollary: There is always another way to do anything
Every problem has more than one solution. If the goal is important, you should never give up, just change your approach.
Basic Format for a Ritual
- Preparation
Get all your props and clothing together, arrange furnishings, set up music, plan the steps, and designate the special area.
- Opening
A dramatic gesture, words of prayer or greeting, a musical attention getter, or a get-acquainted process.
- Content
Doing whatever is involved with the purpose of the ritual. Generally, the shorter the content, the more formal it is (wedding vs. Olympic Games).
- Closing
This is where you get everyone's attention back and make a definite end to the ritual. Often overlooked.
What Determines Effective Ritual
- It must have a strong beginning and ending.
Start by doing something to get everyone's attention. At the end, get everyone's attention again and clearly end the ritual.
- It must have strong sensory input.
The more senses the better -- vision, hearing, scent are common - try adding taste and touch.
- It must have a familiar or predictable form.
Include familiar sensory elements and patterns in every ritual, even though every ritual on every occasion might be different.
- The meaning of every part of the ritual must be understood.
To whatever degree a part of the ritual is not understood, its effectiveness is lost. Explain before or during the ritual.
- It must be special.
Make ritual times into occasions of positive reinforcement of your groups shared values.
What Makes a Ritual Special
- A special area
An area can be made special in several ways. One is consecration - doing a ritual blessing. The easiest way to make a place special for ritual is by encircling it with people, especially by having them hold hands.
- Special objects
Clothing, jewelry, decor, tools, food.
- Special movements
Gestures, postures, dances.
- Special sounds
Intonation, chanting, singing, music, percussion, prayers and blessings, special words.
