"I Reject Your Reality" – Germ Theory Denial and Other Curiosities
Note: This article was originally published in Skeptic magazine. Space limitations resulted in omitting some of what I wanted to say. I'm taking advantage of having a blog to publish the entire article as originally submitted.
On an episode of Mythbusters, Adam Savage was shown a video clip that contradicted his memory of something he had said. He responded, "I reject your reality… and substitute my own." He was joking. Unfortunately, the world is full of people who reject reality and who are not joking.
James Randi tells a story about a TV program that featured Uri Geller doing his standard trick of bending a key. Afterwards, the program's host said it couldn't possibly have been a trick because Uri had "never touched" the key. The host was then shown the recorded program, which proved that Geller clearly had the key in his hands, for two-and-a-half minutes. Instead of admitting having been wrong, the host exclaimed, "Well, that's not how it happened."
One of my own ancestors was a pro at this kind of thing. I'll call her Aunt S (for stubborn). She had once tried tinned sardines, hated them, and refused to ever touch sardines again. One day she came into my grandmother's kitchen when she was frying up some large fresh sardines a friend had brought her. Aunt S ate some, proclaimed them tasty, then asked, "What kind of fish were those, Mary?" My grandmother told her they were sardines. She protested, "No they weren't! I don't eat sardines!"

Increased debt a boon for grant app
BELLAIRE Bellaire is carrying more debt as a village currently than at the same point in 2012.
For once, that's a good thing.
Council passed a resolution during Thursday's meeting authorizing Mayor Vince DeFabrizio to sign and participate in an Ohio Public Works Commission state capital and local transportation program grant.
The grant totals $497,740, of which $133,459 will have to be paid back during a span of 10 years as a zero-interest loan.
If awarded, it will go toward paving of a number of streets in town.
It's a mirror image of a grant application the village submitted last year. At that juncture, Bellaire's grant application was unsuccessful because the village wasn't carrying enough debt.
According to village fiscal officer Tom Sable, that debt amount is between $240,000-$250,000 this time around, a figure which should play into Bellaire's favor.
Along with that resolution, the village passed a companion resolution giving Jeff Vaughn of Vaughn, Coast and Vaughn the go-ahead to enter into any agreements necessary to obtain the funding assistance for the project.
Village Administrator Dan Marling reiterated again that he's seeking direction on whether or not to move forward in replacing the 200-watt bulbs with 100-watt bulbs in a number of lights throughout the city.
The cost is $108.77 per bulb to replace with an estimated total cost of $11,420.85. That money would have to come from the general fund. However, the village would realize a savings of $600 roughly per month. At that rate, it will take approximately 18 months to recover on the investment and start realizing actual savings.
The cost would be spaced out monthly on the village's electric bill instead of being charged all at once. If the move is made, village residents would not see an increase on the $3 charge they pay to the village for lighting. The village itself would incur the cost.
Police Chief Mike Kovalyk informed council that his department's new Ford Interceptor cruiser was recently outfitted and striped and is ready for use. The money for the vehicle came for a fund specifically set aside for vehicle purchases for the department. It was also aided when the water department purchased the old cruiser for the water meter reader to use, thus keeping the money in-house.
Kovalyk also reported on a recent town hall meeting he attended in Martins Ferry where State Sen. Lou Gentile served as the keynote speaker.
The chief explained that Gentile made cuts to local government funding and the problems said cuts are creating for local police and fire departments as a main topic of conversation and that Gentile was in agreement with local leaders that something needs to be done in Columbus to help out the local municipalities recoup some of the money they've lost.
Code enforcer Bill Swoyer told council he'd handled 10 rental inspections, plus three on Thursday, since the previous meeting. He's also handled 16 property complaints, cited five people into mayor's court for failure to comply and issued a number of residential and building permits. Kovalyk commended Swoyer for his assistance in a few issues that have come up recently.
A letter from Dan Brown was read in which he again inquired of council as to its position on use of either the city park, or potential alternate outdoor locations, for portions of the Zombie Fest he is putting on in August of 2014. Brown's letter stated in addition to indoor activities that will likely take place inside the Plastic Brick and Toy Museum, he's looking to put on a car show, have outdoor vendors and other activities. He also requested a parade permit to hold a zombie walk. No action was taken on Brown's request.
However, during the open floor portion of the meeting, resident Andrew Clark got up and spoke in favor of the festival and expressed his wishes that council allow the park to be utilized.

Volatile and sacred, the largest city in Israel holds sway as one of the most significant religious cities in the world.
Yet each person sees the ancient city in a different way.
For Christians, it is the place of Christ's crucifixion. For Muslims, the site of Mohammed's Night Journey and for Jews, the ancient capitol of King David's Israel. All agree, it is the holiest of cities.
And the most sacred site in the Jewish faith is the wall. It is the only remnant of the temple that once stood on this hill, known as Temple Mount. First called the "wailing wall", because it's name translates to place of weeping, it is called the Western Wall today, where prayers are said and heard.
"I feel something really special in my heart when I come here," described Jessica Krasnick, a former Israeli resident who has visited the Western Wall several times. "I feel really close to my history and my heritage. It's just a feeling that you get and it makes me feel holy as well, and part of something greater than myself."
Traditional belief dictates that several significant events in Jewish theology occurred on Temple Mount supported by the Western Wall.
The creation of man, Abrahams sacrificial offering of his son, the vision of Jacob's ladder. All believed to have taken place at the Foundation Stone, housed today by the iconic golden dome that stands above and behind the Western Wall, the Dome of the Rock.
Everyday the plaza below fills with thousands of pilgrims from across the globe, eager to deposit prayer and chant at what once supported the now destroyed Second Temple.
But not every visitor shares the same transcendental experience as Jessica when they visit the site.
"It felt special being at the site. I didn't feel any inner spirituality, but it felt good in my heart to do it for the tradition," said Josh Smaller Swift, a Brooklyn resident visiting the wall for the first time.
What visitors to the plaza see is only a portion of the actual wall. The majority of the stones extend further underground, reaching into layers of soil and rock no doubt, tread by the prophets and sages of three great religions.

- Image analysis to reveal crack development using a computer simulation of wear and rolling contact fatigue
- Author(s)
- Fletcher, D. I.; Franklin, F. J.; Kapoor, A.
- Abstract
- Plastic flow of near-surface rail material under contact loading is a feature of rail-wheel contact, and severe flow typically leads to both wear, and the initiation and development of small surface-breaking cracks. This paper presents results from a ratcheting based computer simulation, which has been developed to allow the simultaneous investigation of wear, crack initiation and early crack propagation. To identify repeatably small crack-like flaws, image analysis is applied to the visual representation of the wearing surface generated by the model. This representation shows a good similarity to traditional micrographs taken from sections of worn surfaces. The model clearly reveals the interaction of wear with crack development, processes which are linked because wear truncates surface-breaking cracks, and can completely remove small surface-breaking cracks.

Dordt Runner Overcomes Collapsed Lung
April 2, 2014
By Sam Ekstrom; Dordt College Sports Information Student Assistant
Any runner will tell you that a hard race leaves you out of breath.
For senior track and cross country runner Aaron Spronk, that phrase has an entirely different meaning.
Entering his junior year at Southwest Christian High School (Minn.), Aaron Spronk decided to switch his focus from soccer to cross country.
"I liked the sport so much more because it was so positive," said Spronk. "In cross country, you can only improve your teammates rather than degrade them."
But an incident early in his junior season nearly derailed his plan to become a runner.
During an early-season race, Spronk felt more out of breath than usual when he crossed the finish line and experienced an ache on the right side of his back. At the time, the first-year runner equated the pain to a muscle cramp.
As it turns out, the injury was much more severe. Spronk's right lung was slowly leaking air – much like a flat tire.
"It actually hurt to breathe," Spronk said.
Throughout the rest of the night, Spronk experienced even more discomfort.
Spronk's parents took their son to the hospital the following day – just in time, as it turns out.
"My body was starting to give out, and I collapsed in the hospital," said Spronk. "The nurses were all there, and they kind of didn't know what to do."
Spronk was airlifted to Sioux Falls, S.D., and underwent surgery to repair his lung. He spent the next week mending in the hospital and another two weeks after that recovering from home.
Spronk says he was overwhelmed with the kindness of his peers during this time.
"It was definitely one of the most supportive times of my life," said Spronk. "Something you face that's pretty life threatening. [I] made new friends and realized the friends that were there always for me; all my teammates from the team and from other schools even."
Laying in the hospital after such a harrowing ordeal gave Spronk a whole new outlook.
"When I was in the hospital… It gave me perspective," said Spronk. "It's made me stronger mentally. Despite how tired you get when you run – short on breath – it's not going to match how that collapsed lung felt."
Some would throw in the towel after an ordeal like Spronk's, especially when doctors told him he was at a higher risk to suffer another collapsed lung, but the Edgerton, Minn., native pressed onward.
Spronk built up endurance and improved his times during his senior year. With college on the horizon, Spronk wanted to continue running, but wasn't sure his times were fast enough. Then he met with Dordt cross country coach Greg Van Dyke.
"When [Aaron] visited campus with his parents, I was impressed with his great attitude towards athletics," said Van Dyke, "and I knew that he would be a hard worker and a positive influence on those around him."
Van Dyke offered Spronk a scholarship to run at Dordt, which Spronk gratefully accepted, appreciative of the chance.
"Whatever you're good at, Dordt will accept that," said Spronk. "I just used the strengths that I'm good at to help the team."
"I think I took what I had from that lung experience and the encouragement I was given, and I just had the urge to share that with my college career," he continued.
While Spronk's lungs stayed strong, he admits that Year 1 at Dordt was fatiguing. He contemplated calling it quits after his sophomore year, but one teammate did his best to convince Spronk otherwise.
"Stephan McNamara would always say, 'You're staying, man. You're staying,'" Spronk remembered.
And Spronk did stay. His times improved from freshman to sophomore year, and he elected to run indoor and outdoor track as a sophomore in order to train year-round.
Current senior Tim Bierma, a 3-time track All-American, has witnessed Spronk's steady improvement since Day 1.
"Every year he's dropped time, he's improved," said Bierma. "He's been solid and consistent and just keeps on getting better and better, which is pretty hard to do every year over a four-year career."
Needless to say, Spronk never wavered again in his desire to stick with running. He has found great satisfaction in taking a day-to-day approach, constantly analyzing how he can better fulfill his role. Spronk says he frequently sits down after practices and mulls over ways to improve.
"I just think about how I can be a better teammate mentally, physically and socially," Spronk said.
Van Dyke, who works with Spronk during both indoor and outdoor track seasons as well as cross country, has noticed Spronk's goal-oriented pursuit of excellence.
"One thing that has really impressed me about Aaron during his four years is that he always sets a goal and then works hard to attain it," said Van Dyke. "I know that Aaron will come to every practice ready to work hard and also push those around him."
Spronk will graduate in May but isn't ready to give up the culture of organized running just yet. The 22 year old has looked into the possibility of assistant cross country coaching at either Marshall High School (Minn.) or Southwest Minnesota State University.
No matter where he ends up, Spronk will continue to pay forward the positivity he received while laying in a hospital bed as a high school junior, and he'll be up for any challenges that arise.
"Even when you're tired some days, you've got to get up and run," said Spronk. "I like it because it's so tough, and that's the reason I stick with it."

Overall, this isn't really my bag. A lot of the songs (mostly the first half of the album) sound alike, but I can dig the seamless incorporation of electronic music into this kind of stuff. Their new album does sound like it might be a bit more interesting though.

Painful Loss Sends Phils Back Further In NL East
Today's Phillies – Twins match-up was both surprising and painful:
The surprises were:
– Roy Halladay was not sharp for the second game in a row. Not horrible by any means, but he did allow 4 runs (1 was unearned) over 8 innings. But the 11 hits he gave up was most surprising.
– Another shocker, the only run of the game for the Phils came on a homer run by Wilson Valdez. That is two days in a row for Valdez, now up to his 3 career homers in 4 years.
– Shane Victorino got sloppy and threw a ball away which led to a run.
– The offense, after 4 straight games of scoring at least 6 runs, went back to sleep.
The painful parts? Everything else.
After a horrible loss last night with the bullpen blowing a 5-run lead, this loss hurt that much more. The Phillies are now 5.5 games back of 1st place in the NL East and show no signs of busting out.
Here is some photographic evidence of how bad the Phillies are going. Normally, it is very, very difficult to get a moving ball in a photo, especially when I am shooting from the stands, around bouncing heads and other obstacles. I do a pretty good job at it most of the time. But if I get a player hitting with the ball in the shot 3 times in 3 different at-bats, that usually means that player is not hitting the ball too hard. Check out Jayson Werth today in 3 separate at-bats:
This is another telling shot; either Justin Morneau is playing leap frog and trying to tag himself out, or someone made a very bad throw:
And how about one more "Oh crap!" moment:
In fact, this game was so bad, the Phillies pulled some odd entertainment out of their collective backsides just to distract the fans:
Is this Big Foot? Seriously, what the hell is this? Oh, ok….they say it is a groundhog, like in Caddyshack. See, the Phanatic is golfing…on the ball field. Ok then. Distraction noted…thanks.
Maybe they should hand a bat to Mr. Big Foot/Groundhog? He cannot do much worse than the Phillies and the opposition will surely be confused by the move. It's official. I am a genius. Send in the Big Foot!
If anyone else has a better idea, I mean besides kidnapping Joe Mauer and putting him in red pinstripes, please call the Phils and let them know. Thanks.
So here is the Photo Album from today's disastrous 1-4 loss. Think of it as another fun distraction and then go pour yourself a stiff drink. I know I will.

Bigfoot!? Funny! Yeah, what was with Doc today? He wasn't bad, but not his usual self. I'm hoping that Werth starts to get it going again–his slump has gone on long enough!
Ouch, that really hurt, Jenn. I think we would be looking at this loss differently if they weren't experiencing this calamity of events that have plagued the team. They keep on happening too. Let's not forget Ruiz's current injury. It was just a bad game. Bad games come and go. I'm still counting on the Phils getting their individual pieces together cohesively to make the outstanding team that they are . Certainly the talent is there! Perhaps they need to be close to the bottom in order to power through spectacularly to the top again. Whether they're at the top or the bottom, I'm still going to be cheering for them. Barb
NO!!!? Not the old grounds crew and mascot mayhem routine!? Get the Taser!
Halladay was human again? Shocking! Sounds like the kind of game you want to forget. The Yankees are playing one if those right now. Ugh.
Nevermind the Phillies' struggles… how bout that sweet camera action! Damn, Jenn, I am very impressed! Those Werth pics are fantastic!
Yep was Groundhog Day, keep waking up and seeing the same thing, over and over again….it's time the Braves got the crap beat out of them for at least 5 or 6 games in the next 10 and we know the Mets will just self destruct….

text: Chile sits at the same latitude to the south as France and Napa do to the north, so it makes sense that great wines come out of the country. Chilean wine hasn't penetrated the American and European scene quite as thoroughly as Argentinean wine has, which means it's still easy to find good wine for cheap. Concha Y Toro is the most commonly available Chilean wine in the U.S., but looks for bottles from smaller boutique vineyards like Loma Larga or Casa Marin. Carménère is Chile's most known wine, because the grapes are rarely found other places. On the white side, they make a lot of good Sauvignon Blanc.

A woman was arrested after she called 911 to complain that an officer who had been at her home earlier refused to have sex with her.
Florida's NBC-2 reports that 58-year-old Maria Montenez-Colon of Punta Gorda initially called 911 complaining that she wanted her Corvette back, even though she had signed ownership of the car over to her step-son after her husband died. An officer came to her home to explain to her the proper use of 911, but the conversation quickly turned to sex. The incident report notes that a very intoxicated Montenez-Colon told the officer he was sexy, asked him if he was married and told him she hasn't had sex in years. Police say Montenez-Colon also repeatedly tried to grab the officer's arm and rub her hands on his chest.
The officer left after handing her a card with the department's number on it for future non-emergency calls.
Less than an hour later, Montenez-Colon called 911 again, complaining the officer who was at her home wouldn't have sex with her. She said calling 911 the second time was the only way she would be able to get the officer to have sex with her.
Montenez-Colon was arrested for Misuse of 911 and booked in the county jail.

Feedback: AG's Office Criticizes Sheriff's Department
The state Attorney General's office is criticizing the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department for the way it handles employees involved in misconduct.
A report written by Watertown-based assistant Attorney General Deanna Nelson also says the department needs accreditation from an outside agency and to establish performance evaluations for employees.
Here's a copy of the report that was hand-delivered to Sheriff John Burns Thursday morning.
Althought the report points out three major deficiencies within the department, Sheriff Burns says he's pleased with it.
"I'm happy with it. I have no problem with the report. We'll move forward," he said.
"I'm happy with it. I have no problem with the report. We'll move forward," he said.
The county legislature asked the Attorney General to investigate the sheriff's department in the wake of several alleged cases of misconduct by department employees.
The report is based on a two-hour meeting between sheriff's department officers and representatives of the Attorney General's office.
The report makes three recommendations:
- Establish a clearly articulated operating policy for handling incidents of possible misconduct involving sheriff's office employees.
- Institute a process whereby employee performance is goal-oriented and evaluated regularly to improve performance and accountability
- Seek accreditation with an outside agency, such as the state Division of Criminal Justice, to attain and maintain modern professional standards.
Some of the personnel problems at the sheriff's department include:
- Deputy Adam Hallett was suspended for having an open alcoholic beverage container in his patrol car. Another deputy is also facing discipline in that case.
- A nurse at the county jail resigned after she admitted to improperly accessing someone's medical records.
- The county faces legal action filed by Deputy Krystal Rice that focuses on revealing photos of Rice that were allegedly taken for a pedophilia sting, and which she claims were misused.
- Jefferson County Undersheriff Andy Neff retired following accusations that he sexually harassed an Adams Center woman.
Sheriff Burns says he has already addressed some of the problems and says accreditation for his department would help too.
Accreditation means more money and training, and would include mandatory evaluations.
"For whatever reason, the county doesn't want us to have evaluations, so that's a big stumbling block for us as getting the accreditation," said Burns.

"For whatever reason, the county doesn't want us to have evaluations, so that's a big stumbling block for us as getting the accreditation," said Burns.
And while Sheriff Burns says he's pleased with the findings, Jefferson County Attorney David Paulsen says the report is just a start.
Lawmakers were hoping the Attorney General's office would lead a full investigation into the department.
"Policies they should put in place - I would have liked to see that addressed a little better," said Paulsen.
So what's next?
It's a question legislators will try to answer at their next board meeting.

General Discussion
General Discussion
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are a group of disorders characterized by abnormal accumulation of malignant T-cells in the skin potentially resulting in the development of rashes, plaques and tumors. CTCLs belong to a larger group of disorders known as non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs), which are related malignancies (cancers) that affect the lymphatic system (lymphomas).
Functioning as part of the immune system, the lymphatic system helps to protect the body against infection and disease. It consists of a network of tubular channels (lymph vessels) that drain a thin watery fluid known as lymph from different areas of the body into the bloodstream. Lymph accumulates in the tiny spaces between tissue cells and contains proteins, fats, and certain white blood cells known as lymphocytes.
There are two main types of lymphocytes: B-lymphocytes, which may produce specific antibodies to "neutralize" certain invading microorganisms, and T-lymphocytes, which may directly destroy microorganisms or assist in the activities of other lymphocytes. CTCLs result from errors in the production of T-lymphocytes or transformation of T-lymphocytes into malignant cells. In CTCLs, abnormal, uncontrolled growth and multiplication (proliferation) of malignant T-lymphocytes result in accumulation of these lymphocytes in the skin. In some cases, malignant lymphocytes may spread to affect the lymph nodes and eventually to other bodily tissues and organs, potentially resulting in life-threatening complications. The specific symptoms and physical findings may vary from case to case, depending upon the extent and region(s) of involvement, the specific type of CTCL present, and various additional factors.
Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, such as CTCLs, may also be categorized based upon certain characteristics of the cancer cells as seen under a microscope and how quickly they may tend to grow and spread. For example, CTCLs may be characterized as "low-grade" (or indolent) lymphomas, which tend to grow slowly and result in few associated symptoms, or "intermediate-grade" or "high-grade" (aggressive) lymphomas, which typically grow rapidly, requiring prompt treatment. Most cases of CTCL, especially the classic form (mycosis fungoides), are slow-growing (indolent) lymphomas.

Playing tourist and fishing some...
Pull up a chair, this is long.
I left last Saturday for a week up in the mountains of North Carolina. It wasn't a fishing trip, so I was hoping for at least a day to sneak away and do some fishing. Before I could do that, I had to do all of the touristy things.
Downtown Gatlinburg was made possible by free moonshine sample shots....
Had to do the Biltmore one day. I had never been, so it was cool.
Bought some to take home....
Went to Brevard one day to see these white squirrels everyone is so crazy about...
Went to a cool up and coming brewery in Waynesville...
Great beer and a nice stream right out back...
The thing I was dreading most, a horse ride in Cataloochie. I am just not cut out for horses. They don't like me and I'm not particularly fond of them. However, I'm a team player and the views were promised to make it worthwhile. So, I went along...
The rain threatened us for a while and delayed the start....
Finally, it cleared and we headed on our way to the top of that mountain...
Once we got to the top, the horses and the riders got a much needed break......
That's my retard horse, Samson. He knew I hated him from the beginning I think. He would randomly stop and refuse to go again, he would ride very close to EVERY tree and overhanging bush just to piss me off, and he would stop and eat along the trail while he needed to be walking. I was more than ready to get back to the stable and the chick taking the horses wasn't bad on the eyes either....
Rounded out the trip in Asheville for Bele Chere, big mistake. I have never been around so many smelly hippies in my life. I did finally find a beer I had been searching for since day one of my arrival. This stuff was unbelievably hard to find, but it was worth the trouble. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I know fruity beer isn't popular with some folks, but this was very subtle. It took almost a half of the can before I could start tasting hints of watermelon.
Walked down and listened to Yo Mamma's Big Fat Booty Band. Got a little second-hand high going and called it quits there.
Got back and tried another new beer.....I liked it
With all that out of the way, time was made for fishing. Although it was when I could go rather than planning it out ahead of time, I caught some fish. The first stream was a local stream that has wild fish and is hatchery-supported. It was running a little high and off-color, but not bad. As soon as I walked down to the stream I saw a brown holding right in the middle.
One well placed fly and drift and game on....
I got him in pretty quick and sent him on his way...
As I walked down, I caught a couple more smaller ones.....(yes I resorted to a san juan worm)
It was good to be in the water and fishing.....
Caught a stocker brookie after he missed the fly 3 or 4 times....
The further I worked up the more off-color the water got.
I managed to pull a small bow out of that pool.
I neared the end point of my wade and came across a nice overhang. There has to be a fish under there. I caught two small browns and pulled one out that was a bit bigger before calling it quits.
Even though most were stockers, that was the first time I have caught all 3 species in one stream, so that was cool.
The next day I bartered for a morning alone in the park. The stream I wanted to fish was a no go due to trail closures. So I opted for another spot down low before I headed up high.
On the way in, I had that uneasy feeling that I wasn't alone. I heard some branches breaking and noticed this beast just in front of me standing as still as a statue. What a way to start the morning, a huge bull elk! This has to be a good sign...
Well, the fishing wasn't stellar. I caught lots of small bows, but that's it.
Caught what appeared to be a stonefly beginning to emerge.
I decided if I am going to catch tiny trout, they might as well be the real gem of the mountains. I had to fish another stream that I have fished before, but is small even for smoky streams. A brief hike up a trail...
Then some time whacking my way to the water....
Almost there...
I finally arrived to the water.
I went with my usual brookie combo, a little yellow sally dry with an ant dropped off the back.
Cool flowers on the stream, no clue what they are....
The water was running pretty good here too, it made it tough to fish. There is already so much overhanging rhodo here, you pretty much HAVE to bow and arrow cast exclusively. The fast water gave you .2 seconds in the sink-size pools to get a drift.
First pool and first brookie.....
More stream views....
I nicknamed this stream "stinging nettle creek," because that is all there is here, and it is THICK!
I missed way more than I caught. Finally connected with a little better-sized one...
These fish are beautiful...
There has to be one in there.....
Fishing became slow and time was running out, so I decided to hike on out. A couple days later, I broke away to fish a stream a buddy clued me into and got into several bows before I was summoned back. :evil:
That was all the fishing I had time for, but it was enough to appease my longing to fish the mountains for a little while longer. I will probably head back again soon.
Sounds like a fun trip, and some nice fish to boot. Thanks for the report and all the great pics.
Fly fishing - it's cheaper than a bass boat!
Glad to see you had a good time and got to do some fishing. Thanks for the report.
Steve Darnell gave me a yellow sally that looks just like that when we fished a couple of weeks back. I have yet to try it, but It looks like it will work well after seeing your report
Great pics, I actually work on the Cataloochee Ski Patrol in winter, and can explain the horse Samson. He was raised in Tennessee and is trained to do that to Auburn or Alabama fans! I was at Bele Chere this weekend also, it is a fundraiser for many of the non profits in the area which is what Cataloochee Ski Patrol is and we have a concession bier garden and soft drinks stand. A lot of the hippies you saw are probably trust fund babies who come to Asheville and western carolina area to find themselves kind of like retro 70's but with I pads and new Suburau's. If you don't mind me asking what area did you see the elk in, NC or TN side?
Jason sometimes ties his neversinks with a spot of orange thread at the back before putting the foam on - swears they work better than the ones without it.

Thrill-seekers will soon be running with the bulls when they're unleashed in several cities across the country, officials said.
The Pamplona-inspired Great Bull Run will begin an eight-state tour after a wild, man-vs.-beast event at a drag-racing strip just south of Richmond, Va., on Aug. 24, organizers said.
About 5,000 people have already signed up for the inaugural bull run, despite the high risk for injury or death.
Since 1924, 15 people have been killed in the famed San Fermin festival in Spain — which Jets coach Rex Ryan ran in last month. The most recent death was in 2009, when a 27-year-old man was gored in the neck and chest by a rogue bull named Capuchino.
"By participating in the run, you accept the risk that you might be trampled, gored, rammed or tossed in the air by a bull, or bumped, jostled, tripped or trampled by your fellow runners," the event states on its website.
"We do what we can to minimize those risks by using less-aggressive bulls than those used in Spain and allowing runners to hide in nooks and climb over the track fence if necessary, but make no mistake: you could get seriously injured at this event."
Even with the harsh warning, about 50 people a day continue to sign up for the first run with about 2,000 people already planning to take part in a second event in Georgia, the group's co-founder and chief operating officer, Rob Dickens, told the Associated Press.
Other bull runs are planned for cities in Texas, Florida, California, Minnesota, Illinois and Pennsylvania.
The daring events have long caused opposition from animal rights groups.
"These events are a shameful example of cruelty for the sake of nothing more than entertainment and profit," Ann Chynoweth, senior director of The Humane Society of the United States' End Animal Fighting & Cruelty Campaign, told the AP.
"These companies put the health and safety of both humans and animals at risk, without the required federal oversight," she said. "We call on the USDA to investigate these entities immediately."
But the organizers of the Great Bull Run argued the claims and said that they are "wholly committed to the health and safety of the animals we work with."
Dickens said the fenced-in courses will be safer for runners than the narrow, cobble-stoned streets of the Pamplona event made famous by Ernest Hemingway in his 1926 novel, "The Sun Also Rises."
The bulls will be released in waves of six at a time to give more space and a "better opportunity to complete the course safely," Dickens said.
He also said the group's choice in livestock won't pose the same danger as the bulls used in Spain.
"We're not using the Spanish fighting bulls that are bred to be very aggressive for the entertaining aspect of bullfighting," Dickens said.
He argued that the purpose of the event is to give a sense of adventure for aspiring mozos.
"You can go running down the street any time you want, but to run with bulls — that's something that doesn't come along very often," Dickens said.

Also in FreeBSD Basics:
In the next few articles, I'll look at how FreeBSD stores data on your hard disk. To store data on a hard drive, the drive must first be divided into logical storage units, and each unit must be assigned an address. The file system will save data to these storage units and keep track of which storage units contain which files.
Like any other version of Unix, FreeBSD uses "inode" (index number) tables to record where files are physically located on disk. Before any inode tables can be created, the disk storage units must be created and given addresses. Let's summarize the steps involved in this process:
fdisk utility is used to view and create the BIOS partition table which defines up to four disk "slices."
disklabel utility is used to view and create the Unix partition table which defines up to eight Unix "partitions."
newfs utility is used to actually create a "filesystem" on each Unix partition.
Notice that your FreeBSD system contains both a BIOS partition table and a Unix partition table. This is necessary as FreeBSD is a Unix operating system, meaning it understands the Unix partition table; however, FreeBSD is also an operating system which runs on a PC (personal computer). PCs require software known as the BIOS in order to initialize the computer, discover the physical geometry of the drives, and locate the software that will boot the desired operating system.
One of the instructions in the BIOS is to look at the contents of the first sector of the first hard disk. This sector is 512 bytes in size; out of those 512 bytes, 64 bytes have been set aside for the BIOS partition table. Every entry in the BIOS partition table consists of 16 bytes, therefore there is only enough room to describe four BIOS partitions.
The BIOS partition table can be viewed or changed using an
fdisk utility. If you change the BIOS partition table, you are actually "slicing" your physical disk into as many as four logical disks. FreeBSD users prefer to call these logical disks "slices" so they won't be confused with the "partitions" described by the Unix partition table.
You may be familiar with the DOS
fdisk utility; I'd like to compare it to the FreeBSD
fdisk utility so you can see the similarities between the two programs. I'll start by showing the output from one of my PCs; I booted this PC with a DOS boot disk, then ran
fdisk from the floppy prompt:
Microsoft Windows 95
Fixed Disk Setup Program
(C)Copyright Microsoft Corp/ 1983 - 1995
FDISK Options
Current fixed disk drive: 1
Choose one of the following:
1. Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive
2. Set active partition
3. Delete partition or Logical DOS Drive
4. Display partition information
Enter choice: [4]
Here we've entered the main menu of the DOS
fdisk utility. I don't want to change the BIOS partition table, so I'll choose option 4 to display the partition information.
Display Partition Information
Current fixed disk drive: 1
Partition Status Type Volume Label Mbytes System Usage
2 Non-DOS 3193 52%
Total disk space is 6150 Mbytes (1 Mbyte = 1048576 bytes)
The Extended DOS Partition contains Logical DOS Drives.
Do you want to display the logical drive information (Y?N)......?[Y]
Notice that I have "sliced" up my hard drive into three slices, which DOS calls "partitions." The first slice has a status of
A for active, meaning that it contains boot code in order to boot an operating system. It is 204 Mbytes in size and has been formatted with the FAT16 file system.
The second slice is 3,193 Mbytes and contains my FreeBSD partitions. This file type is not recognized by the DOS
fdisk utility and has been simply labeled as non-DOS.
The third slice is a 2,753-Mbyte extended partition. Notice that you must enter another screen to see the layout of the extended partition. Extended partitions were designed to allow you to slice your hard drive into more than four slices; the extended partition is simply a pointer to another area on disk which contains yet another table to describe the layout of the "logical" partitions contained within the "extended" partition. Unfortunately, these logical partitions are truly "logical" as they cannot contain boot code, and many operating systems will not install on an extended partition. I'll press Y to enter into the screen that will show these logical partitions:
Display Logical DOS Drive Information
Drv Volume Label Mbytes System Usage
Total Extended DOS Partition size is 2753 Mbytes (1 Mbyte = 1048576 bytes)
Let's summarize the information we've gleaned out of the DOS
fdisk utility. This PC has one hard drive of 6,150 Mbytes. It has been sliced up and labeled as follows:
|DOS slice name
|DOS slice type
|Slice size
|204 Mbytes
|1,396 Mbytes
|361 Mbytes
|3,193 Mbytes
DOS uses the following naming scheme for its slices:
Let's compare this to the output from FreeBSD's
fdisk utility. If you just type
fdisk at a prompt, it will display the contents of the BIOS partition table. However, if you try to run
fdisk as a regular user, you'll receive this message:
fdisk: can't open device /dev/ad0
fdisk: cannot open disk /dev/ad0: Permission denied
Only the superuser has permission to access the device that represents my first IDE disk; this is a good thing, as all
fdisk utilities give you the option to modify the slices that have been defined on a hard disk. If you modify a slice, you lose all the data on that slice. Don't worry, the superuser won't be able to modify a slice if he just types
fdisk to view the BIOS partition table; the superuser has to actually specify a drive and a switch in order to change a slice. I'll become the superuser and try that view command again:
******* Working on device /dev/ad0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=784 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=784 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 6,(Primary "big" DOS (> 32MB))
start 63, size 417627 (203 Meg), flag 80 (active)
beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1;
end: cyl 25/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 417690, size 6538455 (3192 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 26/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 432/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 5,(Extended DOS)
start 6956145, size 5638815 (2753 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 433/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 783/ sector 63/ head 254
The data for partition 4 is:
If you take a close look at this output, you'll notice that FreeBSD's
fdisk utility yields the same information as the DOS
fdisk utility plus more detailed information regarding the physical layout of the disk. This information is always contained in the BIOS partition table, but not all of the information is displayed with the DOS
fdisk utility.
Hard drives are divided into logical units known as cylinders and sectors. My FreeBSD slice (partition 2) starts at cylinder 26/sector 1 and ends at cylinder 432/sector 63. Since cylinders are comprised of 63 sectors, we've started at the beginning of cylinder 26 and ended at the end of cylinder 432, for a total of 407 cylinders. We'll see that cylinder information again when we look at the Unix partition table.
You can also use the
fdisk utility to view a summary of the BIOS partition table if you include the
s switch:
fdisk -s
/dev/ad0: 784 cyl 255 hd 63 sec
Part Start Size Type Flags
1: 63 417627 0x06 0x80
2: 417690 6538455 0xa5 0x00
3: 6956145 5638815 0x05 0x00
This output again shows three defined slices. It also shows the starting address of each slice, and the size of each slice in sectors. The type of each slice is written in hex as hex values always begin with
0x. The hex value
a5 is equivalent to the decimal number 165 which is the magic number used by FreeBSD; the hex value
06 is equivalent to the decimal number 6 which is the magic number for FAT16; the hex value
05 is equivalent to the decimal number 5 which is the magic number for a DOS extended partition. Only one flag can be set to
0x80 as this represents the active partition and a BIOS partition table can only have one active partition.
Let's summarize the BIOS partition table: It is used by a PC's BIOS to determine the physical layout of a hard disk which may have been logically divided into as many as four slices. Normally, users create multiple slices when they wish to run multiple operating systems. If a slice is to contain a Microsoft operating system, it must first be formatted with a file system that the operating system understands. The formatting process will create a table on that slice which will be used by the file system to keep track of where data is stored on that slice.
The nice thing about slicing up a hard drive is that you can reformat a slice (which destroys the table for that slice, meaning you'll no longer be able to find the data on that slice) without affecting the data on the other slices of the disk. However, a slice formatted for a Microsoft operating system can only contain one file system; that is, you can't have two or more file systems on a slice that contains a Microsoft operating system.
If a slice is to contain the FreeBSD operating system, the Unix partition table will be written to that slice. A FreeBSD slice can contain up to eight partitions, and each partition can be either a separate file system or a swap partition.
If you run the
disklabel utility without any switches, you will be able to safely view the Unix partition table without modifying it; again, only the superuser can use this utility as only the superuser has permission to access the disk's device name. My PC is running FreeBSD 4.2, so its IDE drive is called
ad. Drives are numbered starting with the number 0; since my FreeBSD slice is on my first drive, I'll specify the device
ad0 like so:
disklabel ad0
# /dev/ad0c:
type: ESDI
disk: ad0s2
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 63
tracks/cylinder: 255
sectors/cylinder: 16065
cylinders: 407
sectors/unit: 6538455
rpm: 3600
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0 # milliseconds
track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds
drivedata: 0
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 102400 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 6*)
b: 270976 102400 swap # (Cyl. 6*- 23*)
c: 6538455 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 406)
e: 40960 373376 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 23*- 25*)
f: 6124119 414336 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 25*- 406*)
The Unix partition table looks quite different from the BIOS partition table. All of these entries live in that one FreeBSD slice which the BIOS sees as "partition 2". Notice that this one slice has been assigned five letters, but the letter
c shows a filesystem type of
unused. By convention, the letter
c represents the entire slice, so the actual filesystems will be assigned the letters a-b and d-h. On this FreeBSD slice, there are three separate filesystems lettered a, e, and f. The swap partition has been assigned the letter b.
Each filesystem is defined by its cylinder groups, which are simply a bunch of cylinders grouped together. Each filesystem is only responsible for the data stored on its cylinder group. So, filesystem
a has been assigned the cylinders 0-6, the filesystem
e has been assigned the cylinders 23-25, and the filesystem
f has been assigned the cylinders 25-406. Notice that the entire slice, or
c, is composed of cylinders 0-406, for a total of 407 cylinders which was the number of cylinders we saw with FreeBSD's
fdisk utility.
We can also see from the beginning of this output how the cylinders are divided into their storage units: cylinders are divided into sectors and tracks, each track is intersected by 63 sectors, and each sector is composed of 512 byte "blocks". If you are unfamiliar with sectors and tracks, there is a good picture here.
Finally, with a bit of math we can figure out how big this slice is in megabytes. There are 6,538,455 sectors and each sector is 512 bytes. If we multiply the number of sectors by the number of bytes, we'll get the total number of bytes. If we divide this result by 1,024, we'll get the number of kilobytes; if we divide that result by another 1,024, we'll get the number of megabytes:
6,538,455 x 512 = 3,347,688,960 bytes
3,347,688,960 / 1,024 = 3,269,227 kilobytes
3,269,227 / 1,024 = 3,192 megabytes
which just happens to be the size reported by the
fdisk utility.
disklabel utility can be used to create the Unix partition table, but it does not actually create the filesystems. Instead, it creates a "disk pack label" which is read by the
newfs utility. It is the
newfs or new filesystem utility which creates the actual filesystems and their associated inode tables. I want to take a good look at
newfs and inode tables, so we'll continue the rest of this article next week.

The covering up of a piece of art at the Hawaii Convention Center is now attracting national attention. Now, the rights of the artist could trump the cultural views of protesting Native Hawaiians.
The art piece that a group of Native Hawaiians finds offensive remains covered up, but it may not be that way for long.
The governor has stated his stern position to censoring art. It may not legally be allowed as the piece by Hans Ladislaus is federally protected.
"It is actually a fact that it is," said State Foundation Executive Director Eva Laird Smith. "Once an art comes into being, this was covered by a federal law back in 1990 and you understand this work was created in 1997."
"Art is an appeal to the universal and an appeal to our sense of humanity," said Gov. Neil Abercrombie. "Anyone who thinks they can restrict that is operating on the basis of being a culture cop."
Representatives from the National Endowment of the Arts are urging the State Foundation to protect the artist's rights. But, Paulette Kaleikini, a cultural descendant, said she was not asked to remove the cloth and has no plans to take it down.

3 Wis. parks to offer candlelight skiing, hiking
Mirror Lake State Park to offer ski-hike-snowshoe event
Three state parks are planning candlelight skis and hikes this weekend.
Blue Mound State Park is scheduled to hold a ski-hike-snowshoe outing on Saturday evening. The park will offer hot drinks, hot food, a bonfire and free marshmallows for roasting.
Harrington Beach State Park in Belgium also plans a ski-hike outing that same night. Trails will be lit by hundreds of tiki torches.
Mirror Lake State Park in Lake Delton will offer a ski-hike-snowshoe event that night, too. The agenda includes bonfires.
A number of state parks will offer similar events through late February. More information is available on the state Department of Natural Resources' website.

A former Nez Perce county commissioner who was convicted of stalking and battery could spend the remaining 60 days of his sentence in a jail closer to home.
The Lewiston Tribune reports Michael Grow was transferred Saturday from the Valley County Jail in Cascade to the Nez Perce County Jail in Lewiston.
Grow still needs to qualify for work release by providing proof of health insurance to stay in Lewiston. He will be returned to Cascade if he fails to qualify.
Grow pleaded guilty in December to charges of unlawful entry, stalking and battery related to a 2011 encounter with a woman.
A felony charge was dropped through a plea agreement and additional jail time and fines were dismissed on the condition he successfully completes four years of probation.

Woodstock performer Joe Cocker comes to Bethel Woods
May 2, 2012 —
BETHEL, NY — Two iconic rock icons, Joe Cocker and Huey Lewis and the News will join forces at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts on Sunday, August 5 at 7:30 p.m.. The co-headliners will perform full sets, including three decades of hits, packed into one night that will leave you more than Feelin' Alright.
British soul singer Joe Cocker parlayed Ray Charles-type vocals and an eccentric stage presence into a string of late-'60s hits, suffered in the mid-'70s, and went from tragic figure to well-respected interpreter in the '80s and '90s. His gritty, powerful voice remains one of the most distinctive in rock & roll today.
For over 30 years, Huey Lewis and the News have been making and performing music that resonates with people at their core, whether it is their singing about the daily grind in "Workin' For A Livin'" or lamenting a troubled relationship in "If This Is It."
Tickets cost $45 to $127 for reserved seating and $26.50 for lawn. For a limited-time only, a Lawn 4-Pack is available for $80.00.
Tickets go on sale on May 5 at 10 a.m. at BethelWoodsCenter.org, Ticketmaster, the box office or by phone at 800/745-3000. Visit www.BethelWoodsCenter.org.

To choose the best parking is clearly marked parking spaces for a fee. Good extensive bus network, Sarajevo is accessible from any direction.
The plane from all over the world come to Sarajevo International Airport, located 10 kilometres from the city centre. From the airport there is no regular bus service. Although there are those who argue that there is bus service 'Bascarsija - Airport', it rarely can attest, and still valid belief that the only mode of transport to city centre taxi, and driving in one direction is not more than 10 euros. From taxi drivers required to switch on the meter.Railway and bus stations are located 3 kilometers from our accommodation, if you arrive by bus or train just sit on the tram No.1, buy a ticket that costs 1.60 km at the kiosk, the driver 1.80 km and get off at the fourth stop, which is called the main Post office.From station turn left to the end of the street Kulovic turn right and we are there.

Laurier creates entrepreneurship opportunities with new space at the Hub
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Nov 30/11
A space at the Communitech Hub affectionately nicknamed the sandbox will soon become Lauriers playground for innovation and entrepreneurship.
Lauriers long-standing Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program (EAP) is a flagship opportunity for students to launch new ventures while earning academic credit. Starting in January, the program will have dedicated space at the Hub.
Relocating the Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program to the Hub will enable us to immerse Laurier students in the citys entrepreneurship ecosystem, said Steve Farlow, executive director of the Schlegel Centre for Entrepreneurship. Students will be able to easily connect with other entrepreneurs, community partners, corporate partners, investors and the alumni mentors they are assigned.
The program is run by Lauriers Schlegel Centre for Entrepreneurship, in partnership with the School of Business and Economics and the Faculty of Science. Undergraduate students from other academic disciplines may also apply to be part of the program. Laurier has also partnered with Conestoga College to ensure Laurier students have access to Conestoga student volunteers that can build websites and design logos and marketing materials for start-ups using the space.
As Laurier students complete the Entrepreneurship Accelerator Program, they will have the opportunity to graduate directly into Communitech programs offered at the Hub that will helpthem take their venture to the next level.
Entrepreneurship provides knowledge, skills and experience that is fundamental to being an effective contributor in todays world, whether running ones own business or working in an established organization., said Farlow. For Laurier students to be leaders, , we need to expose them to the discipline of entrepreneurship as a complement to their chosen field of study.
The program is one of many partnerships between Laurier and the Communitech Hub. In January 2011, Laurier and Communitech launched a joint MBA/Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EiR) program. EiRs are successful entrepreneurs or ex-CEOs and CFOs who provide support to over 300 start-up companies in the Waterloo Region. Under the program, MBA students work with early-stage firms and EiRs to provide guidance and advice to new businesses.
Steve Currie, vice-president of business services at Communitech, approached Farlow about the partnership in 2010.
It obviously addresses a need that we have around being able to meet the growing demand for our coaching and mentoring to start-ups in the region, said Currie. On the other hand, it provides MBA students with an opportunity to work with a senior person, who will be their coach and mentor.
Laurier is one of the founding academic partners at the Communitech Hub, located in Kitchener in the historic Tannery Building. It is one of many facilities and organizations that comprise the Canadian Digital Media Network, which aims to establish Canada as a world leader in digital media by fostering connections and speeding the commercialization of Canadas digital talent, products, and companies.
For more information, please contact Victoria Larke, manager: Schlegel Centre for Entrepreneurship at email@example.com.

Lets start by having you perform two hand seals and gather up katon chakra. After that, channel your katon chakra to your hands and feet. Once you have done that start break dancing, while break dancing release 8 orbs of flame towards this dummy.

*After gathering up my katon chakra, i perform two handseals in preparation for the jutsu i'm about to perform. I then distribute the gathered chakra evenly within my both my hands and feet, whilst simultaneously breaking dancing upon the floor to release eight small orbs of fire towards the dummy. The fire orbs crash into the inanimate object, burning it to a crisp within seconds.*
