Snuber question
theoretically rusty , just asking a question
In a DC circuit where a switch is switching a medium resistive or inductive load example: one switch drives a big relay to turn 6 headlights in a car or one switch that drives directly 2 small head lights in car Is there a point or use , or anything wrong if a capacitor is used between the switch contacts to suppress the spark ? Kind regards Sakis

Hi Sakis!
Yes, I believe there is a point , a small capacitor will limit the switch arcing on turn off. Use a high voltage stuff, like a 400 or 1000 V poly stuff, since the back EMF can be quite high and otherwise perforate the dielectric. In fact the spark that you see is the air dielectric of that is perforated. A mains rated X or Y type should be ideal, since they are said to be auto-regenerating. The counter effect should be only a small delay on turn off, that would be not noticeable if you keep the time constant small. As a side note, filament lamps are a very nasty non linear load. At cold they are very low resistance, and the will reach their nominal one only once fully light up. So your switch will have hard life on the turn on action as well, since it will see a current possibly several times its nominal one for a brief period. |

Effebi fair enough but your example is wrong in a filament application like a tube amplifier you are switching AC in the filaments or even if the filaments are DC you are still switching AC before rectification or regulation
My question has to do strictly with DC applications If there was a practical use of such an application the #1 field to apply such a practice will be the car industry but still in no car application i have seen anything like that I am missing something here ... Kind regards Sakis

To reduce a spark with DC switching, use a blocking diode, (reverse bias) with a 100nF capacitor across the contacts.

Yes, a cap or snubber across the switch will suppress sparks when opening the switch. The spark is caused by energy stored in the circuit inductance. In many cases the inductance in a DC circuit is sufficiently low that little energy is stored so any spark is very small. In some cases the circuit stray capacitance may be high enough to suppress the spark on its own.

ok ...question remains ...
why this is not used in the automotive industry ? either the spark is too small so nobody will bother or there is no practical use of the application Can any come up with an idea may be in switching DC but in higher voltage or power ?

Definetly a sweet bedroom treat.
She says: If you like external stimulation and a toy that allows you to put lots of pressure on your entire pussy this toy is for you!He says: This toy has a variety of uses, solo play and couples play are both enhanced. We were not able to adjust vibration level, and we are not sure if we have a defective one or that is the design. The instructions were vague about that.
Shape and the fact it gets me off every time.
Having a choice of stronger steady vibration would be good.

WegoWise and Steven Winter Associates Unveil Integrated Multifamily Benchmarking Service
Integrated analysis and audits eases compliance with New York Local Law 84 and unlocks potential utility savings
Feb 04, 2014, 08:55 ET from WegoWise
BOSTON and NEW YORK, Feb. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Building intelligence provider, WegoWise, and Steven Winter Associates, Inc., a leading energy and sustainability consulting firm, have announced a partnership created to offer a new service for benchmarking in multifamily buildings. The service combines utility data analysis and auditing services to help New York property owners comply with Local Law 84 energy disclosure mandates. In addition, it will also enable owners to easily tap collected utility data to identify high-impact building retrofits and achieve dramatic savings.
Local Law 84 requires all buildings in New York City over 50,000 square feet—more than 16,000 buildings across the city—to have their energy-use benchmarked and reported annually. WegoWise and Steven Winter Associates aggregate and benchmark building data directly from the utility, then prepare and submit the required report to the city on behalf of the building owner.
In addition to compliance activities, the Steven Winter Associates and WegoWise's benchmarking service provides:
- Data visualizations to compare buildings within a portfolio, as well as to others with similar building profiles
- Integrated auditing services to help building owners identify capital improvements that will achieve the greatest ROI
- Consulting services designed to maximize financial incentives
- Ongoing monitoring and verification services to identify anomalies in energy use, and to ensure upgrades deliver returns as anticipated
"New York building owners are faced with a complex and confusing marketplace of solutions for Local Law 84 compliance. WegoWise and Steven Winter partnered to provide the set of services required by building owners, helping them to not only comply, but also capitalize on the insights from their energy data," said Dan Teague, director of business development at WegoWise. "WegoWise's tool is the first step to determining which buildings are ripe for efficiency upgrades. Steven Winter Associates provides the expert auditing services that convert our data into action—and drive projects across the finish line."
The partnership unites the industry leader in multifamily building utility analytics with a leading building-energy consultancy that has operated in New York for more than 40 years. Steven Winter Associates and WegoWise both have extensive experience tracking and benchmarking energy use in New York, with the two companies tracking energy use across nearly 160 million square feet in the city.
"We've been working with building owners in New York to drive sustainability initiatives for decades," stated Marc Zuluaga, VP and Director, Multifamily Energy Services for Steven Winter Associates. "As property owners began evaluating their energy use under Local Law 84, we saw a strong demand in the marketplace for a comprehensive solution that helps reduce utility costs. We built this joint offering to meet those needs and take building efficiency projects from conception to completion."
WegoWise and Steven Winter Associates previously collaborated to support the Green Supers training program, offered by Local 32BJ to train New York building owners in green operations and maintenance. The evaluation used WegoWise to analyze Green Super buildings pre- and post-training to demonstrate energy savings implemented as a result of the training.
About WegoWise
WegoWise is an industry-leading utility intelligence provider for the real estate industry. Bridging big data and energy efficiency, WegoWise distills large aggregations of energy and water data into useful, actionable information for building owners, managers, energy auditors and building efficiency programs, enabling them to automatically track, understand and benchmark building performance, and make better efficiency investment decisions. WegoWise's platform benchmarks against the largest collection of multifamily data in the world, regularly identifying impressive opportunities for cost savings, as inefficient buildings typically pay four times the utility costs of efficient buildings.

Song in Commercial: We Are Young (feat. Janelle Monáe)
More About Artist & Song In Commercial
I wasn't familiar with this band until I did a post for a recent Chevy Sonic Commercial. I checked them out on Rdio and instantly became a fan. The song also features a singer named Janelle Monáe, who we have featured in a 2011 Chevy Cruze commercial. If you haven't heard her song in that ad yet, I highly recommend you check it out.
Back to this song "We Are Young" though. That is such a catchy song. Although it's weird once you listen to the song lyrics, it's a song about being young and free and getting really drunk, and it's in a car commercial featuring people doing crazy stunts. Perhaps I'm over-thinking it. Anyway, here is the music video for the song:
Chevy Sonic Commercial Description
2012 Super Bowl commercial for the new Chevy Sonic car. This ad features people in Chevy Sonic's doing stunts like jumping the car on a ramp where it does a flip over a giant skateboard, dropping the car out of an airplane with a parachute with skydivers, and a Chevy Sonic bungee jumping.
Text On Screen Says
100% Real Stunts. Do not attempt. Please.

When considering if your choice of firearm is adequate, you have to ask yourself at least two questions: 1. Are you likely to regularly carry a bigger gun? 2. Are you likely to be confronted by multiple assailants? Being the type of person who is concerned about personal defense, I will assume that you have a level or personal awareness which might keep you from looking like a sheep. Avoidance, and not looking like a victim might prevent you from being confronted to begin with. Also, street criminals do not commonly expect to meet resistance. I wager that many on this forum were correct in saying that once shots are fired the criminals will scatter, giving you an opportunity to un-ass the area.

Honestly if 2 or 3 guys came up to me 1 or 2 of them with deadly weapons i would pull one of my guns(unless they have the drop on me). If they were both or all unarmed i may put up a physical fight but in the end if my life or my families were in danger all of my earthly energy or my .45 will come to bear ...

The strawberry blonde color does not deposit or produce the red hue I was going for, at least not as much as I was hoping. I realized that this was billed as a color enhancer and not a color depositing shampoo, so that is probably the difference. I like the golden blonde color better in this product.

Literary Cats
Recently, Nikki has shown a great deal of interest in books. For some reason, she found Reeve Lindbergh's Forward From Here : Leaving Middle Age--and Other Unexpected Adventures to be attractive. She'll only be four in November, so it can't be the subject matter. She must like Reeve Lindbergh's writing as much as I do.
And, then last night, the little one thought he'd get into the act. I'm now taking part in Amazon's Vine Program, reviewing books. I was so excited when I received The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. As you can see, Josh was equally pleased. He's only one, but we're already turning him into a literary cat.
How about you? Any literary cats in your life?

Nope--my cats (Bear, Molly and Murphy) can't read a lick, lucky for them, Cookie the dog, (the mutt in my profile pic) sits down and reads to them every day.
Oh..wait...they're cats, they probably taught Cookie to read so they could relax and listen without making any effort!
I love your blog, hope its ok that I added you to my bloglist! - 6:56 AM
- Lesa said...
Thank you, Bookfool!
I appreciate you adding me to your bloglist.
You're right. Your cats probably did take the lazy way out. Why should they expend the effort? - 7:22 AM
- caryn said...
Well, do you count laying on whatever book I'm trying to read as literary? No, I guess that's just trolling for attention. Whatever it is, it's extremely annoying. Elsa Mae is happy to curl up on my lap while I read, but Loki needs to be between me and the book, newspaper or computer screen. Always.
Great pictures!

Thanks, Caryn.
No, I would say that possibly Loki wants to read along with you. Are you sure that's trolling for attention? - 7:47 AM

I'm anxious to see what you think of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society - and what Josh thinks of it! I heard the co-author interviewed on NPR this week and it sounds great. Be sure and keep us posted and keep the cats in books!!
Gaye - 7:29 PM

I LOVED The Guernsey Literary Society. I'm posting my review on Saturday, but I have a small one on Amazon already. That book will probably be my #1 title for the year. Josh has good taste in books.
Nothing came in the mail for him today, so I haven't seen him since I fed dinner. He's probably pouting somewhere that he doesn't have a new book. - 7:34 PM
- Literary Feline said...
You have such beautiful literary cats! My Parker seems to prefer emply boxes then ones filled with book,s but sometimes he'll try and climb in while I'm still emptying the box. He does love to lay on an open book though. :-)
- Lesa said...
In my opinion, Wendy, any cat that shows an interest in books is a literary cat, particularly if they belong to a reader. (smile) Parker fits the bill.

Thanks, Sean, for the clarification. As a former member of that board who left in total disgust some time ago, I appreciate knowing you are not personally tied to it.

Be glad you don't have anything to do with washingtonflyfishing.com It's fascinating to be witness to a board literally imploding upon itself. Leland. |
| |
Why is it that you can't bad mouth each other but yet you all bad mouth another site.And to think that I sent an other fly fisher to this site. I should of read this thread first and then thought better of it.
I do not think the outlash is against the site itself...infact I enjoy reading some of the posts...especially yours. But many people, myself are included, are appauled at the strong lack of respect for fish and the resource that many of the members exhibit. Fishing over obvious redds, targeting smolts etc., are all acts that damage the resource yet many of the members over there brag about particapting in these damaging and disgraceful acts! My apologies if you took offense to the above comments by myself or others on Flytalk as many of us are very very angry!
Ryan S. Petzold aka Sparkey and/or Special |
hello, Jim S-
I can appreciate why you might be somewhat disillusioned with some of the reactions expressed on this site regarding the "other" fly fishing site it appears you frequent. Never having visited the site under discussion prior to these posts, all the fuss of course caught my attention and I decided to have a look. Although I didn't particularly find anything to be as "appauled" over as some, I can see the compulsion to put forth the comments they did. Case in point--the chest-pounding over a fly-caught fully ripe chinook salmon was a novelty for me, especially seeing the attached photograph of the poor creature spewing eggs over the obviously proud fly fisherman's waders. And the thread on "Ugliest fish" with attendant photographs of fish in various stages of decomposition served only to underscore the questionable subject matter for a Forum of this type. However, it was clear to me that these posters were obviously beginners and were fueled more on testosterone and misplaced exuberance then malicious intent and contempt for the resource as some would have it. I also took note that some of the more mature members of the Forum immediately chastened the posters of those photographs so as to set them straight and remind them of the responsibility they had as stewards of the resource. At the very worst, something constructive was learned and an example was set for these new guys. It is somewhat amusing to me that the most vitriolic reactions to your website and its content are usually made by fly fishermen whom I suspect were beginners themselves only a very short time ago but who now package themselves as seasoned aficionados of the sport. That appears to be human nature doesnt it: an ignoramus is a person who doesn't know today what you only just learned yesterday. It is sometimes rather appauling. |
I, like all of us, understand that there is a learning curve that goes along with one jumping into the sport of flyfishing. And I, like others, understand that beginers will make ethical makes in many differnt ways i.e. fellow fisherman, the fish, the resource etc. etc. etc. It is our responsibility to point them in the right direction and let them know why that direction is the proper one. BUT...many of the members on that board instead of taking the veterns advice or questioning why their advice was the proper route to follow, they fought back! They made comments such as "We want more knowledge, not controversy!" Knowledge as in where to go and controversy as in other members frowning upon their awful acts. And other members just reacted in a way to say "Do not tell us what to do!" If they would have been open to the other's opinions and curious as to why the ethics that were being forced upon them were the right way, then I would not have a problem. But any right mind, whether they are a beginer or not, knows how protect the enviroment and the resource. It doesnt take a rocket scienitist to figure out that walking over redds and fishing over fish on redds isn't healthy for the resource. Maybe, I am being a little harsh....many of these folks are my generation and maybe I am just embarrased because of the image they are presenting of my generation. We all aren't like that...

I sure hope my last post did not come off as arrogant and pompous...
Ryan S. Petzold aka Sparkey and/or Special |
Neither arrogant or pompous; you hit it on point. Perhaps if marketic looked a little deeper he too could see the points you bring up. Just because recent posts have been less volatile doesn't change this leopard's spots. This issue goes back several months. ws |
Read my message and I guess it seemed to come out of nowhere. Let me explain.
It was not my intent to bad mouth the site at all. I received a couple of anonymous emails questioning my relationship with the site. To put it mildly they were not very nice emails to say the least. Since the bogus email addresses they were sent from made it impossible to deal with them directly I decided to publicly post to clear the air. I really do not know a whole lot about the site and did not want my post to cause a bashing war. Sounds like the site is going through some growing pains and hopefully they will make it through it. -sean |
I understand your reasoning but do you believe every thing that you read. What was said about fishing for smolts was meant as a joke. And as for fishing over spawning fish that person was told the right way and stopped.
I'm trying hard to try to understand how we communicated before the age of computers. I'm not defending anybody,but what was said Was that I/we were targeting smolts. It seems that nobody can make a joke any more with out some one getting up tight with out knowing all the FACTS You read a lot of stuff on these sites.Some of it is good and some of it is no good. But you keep reading it If you want to form an opinion from that well and good but why can't you keep it to yourself. Right now I fighting with my self to keep from mouthing off on some stuff but the better part of me is winning. It seems that everyone want everybody to think like they do. Well it won't work. This is America the land of the free. And we all think and act differently. Some times I think that I'm glad I'm not that person,look what he has to go thru to go fishing. We're not alike so we say things different that others do. Well I'll get of my soap box now and just stick to things at hand. If you want to bad mouth me go ahead my skin is thick and I don't rile easy. But I do get even. |
Sean, thoughts from an 'old man...' walk away
from this thread.
"No good deed will go unpunished." |
The glass is half-full
While I have found some of the recent posts on washingtonflyfishing.com repugnant, I think it unfair to trash the entire site.
Last week I posted in response to some posts and attitudes, which I personally felt, violated the spirit of flyfishing. I received a fair amount of flack over my opinions. However, I also received a number of supportive posts agreeing that what is legal isnt always right and supporting my assertion that fishing with a flyrod is not the same as being a flyfisher. Chris, the Webmaster over there, yesterday posted that he will no longer tolerate or allow any posts that cross the line into poor sportsmanship or resource abuse. I have no idea if my posts had any bearing on his decision but I am happy that all does not appear to be lost. |
I personally believe your post, written with great clarity, was a godsend. The timing couldn't have been better either. This board in question was my first and favorite for a long time with some minor problems which weren't all that glaring. ...until the VFS bulletin board nearly self-destructed and the, pardon the term, riff-raff, sought a new home. Many went to Westfly and many to WFF.com, where the level of bickering went up overnight. I quickly bailed-out but never gave up hope that the membership would get it back together. Well it kept getting worse until there reached a point that even the enforcement division of WDFW was checking things out, or so said their email to me. Meanwhile, I was "talking" to Chris via email, pointing out that other flyfishers were scrutinizing the "antics and behaviorisms" being shown. Then your post - the final nail, so to speak. Late last night, Chris sent me an email, for the most part, recognizing the above and expressing his determination to be fair while correcting the web site's problems. I believe he will succeed, especially now that he understands there are others out there to lend support. I am quite pleased that this seems to be turning around. ws P.S. ...which is not to say that there weren't other persons and forces at play. Last edited by watersprite; 11-04-2002 at 02:43 PM. |

Nothing I could add to that ... other than well spoken.

2014 Open Water Swimming Almanac
An Almanac for Open Water Swimming
An almanac is essentially a body of knowledge which is so complete that it enables people in different fields to make predictions about the future of their respective industries.This, for example, was the purpose of the traditional farmers almanacs. It enabled farmers to determine as accurately as possible which crops to plant for the greatest harvests in a given year.
But the farmers almanac was just one example among many.
There are, of course, many different kinds of almanacs.
In fact, there is even one for open water swimming...
Preview the Open Water Swimming Almanac:
The trends are very clear.
The tide is rising for open water swimming.

I wont post by travels but just do posts and pictures based on a city or area. I have seen a large percent of the world. I have seen mountains, oceans, deserts, forests, and all kinds of cities. In my travels I have found not many places can compare to Western Washington, but maybe I am bias...

Wayne Rooney may have started the season in fine form, scoring 10 goals and looking settled again at Manchester United, but the club will reportedly not start talks with the forward over a new contract before the end of the year.
The 28-year-old's contract at Old Trafford expires in the summer of 2015, so he will enter the final 18 months of his deal in January, but negotiations will be delayed as United, who sit eighth in the Premier League after an indifferent start under David Moyes, look to add some new additions. Everton's Leighton Baines, and Ilkay Gundogan, from Borussia Dortmund, have been linked.
Rooney's situation at United is now in far different to what it was during the summer, when he wanted to leave the club, with offers from Chelsea rejected, and the England forward now seems content under Moyes, as opposed to former manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
United are also maintaining an interest in Athletic Bilbao midfielder Ander Herrera, who appeared to come close to a move to Old Trafford last summer only for a transfer to collapse. Representatives who arrived in Spain were said to be sent from the Premier League champions, but later were revealed to be Spanish lawyers tasked with structuring the problematic move from the Basque club.

Work detailsThe Titans by John Jakes (1976) None Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Best volume of the series so far! Jakes does a superb job of developing both major and minor characters in Titans. That is what made this particular novel stand out from the previous four. Bravo! I enjoyed this book as I have the entire series. I did have a hard time with the descriptions of the battles. This being the civil war it was hard for me to keep track of which of the historical characters were with the North and which were with the South. A great way to learn about American history while being entertained. Good character development. Be sure to stop in the middle of a chapter because this author writes in such a way that you HAVE to keep reading past the end of a chapter. The fifth in the Kent Family Chronicles reissue follows Jephtha Kent, now a reporter for the family newspaper, and his son Gideon Kent through the early days of the Civil War. Like the other volumes in this series, it brings American history to life by showing how it affects the members of one family. And why did I suffer through the whole series in 1976? I must have thought it was patriotic to read pulp. no reviews | add a review

I'm drawing a blank. There are some movies after which you draw a blank because they've left you spellbound. You don't know how to express the exhilaration you feel. Isn't it strange that you draw the same blank for movies that leave you numb.
Cast: Sunil Shetty, Arshad Warsi, Sandhya Mridul Singh
Gopi (Sunil Shetty) a simpleton, arrives in Goa from Hoshiyarpur. His mission – to hand over an incredibly tiny piece of land to his childhood friend Kishen, which was his father's last wish. Kishen (Arshad Warsi), now a conman, swindles people with a little help from his accomplice, Babu (Atul Kale), to earn enough money to educate his sibling Divya (Mahima Mehta) who's studying in London.
Kishen, however, has managed to hide his profession from Anuradha (Rashmi Nigam) merely saying that it's Hari, his twin, who is the bad guy. Kishen avoids Gopi like he's bad news. He's not going to give up his flourishing business and travel to Hoshiyarpur just to take possession of a measly piece of land!
Gopi, in his mission of chasing Kishen, is given a helping hand by Tanya (Anishka Khosla), daughter of the owner of KG Resorts. Flash: Diamonds worth crores have been stolen in a breathtaking heist by three gorgeous girls who are now holed up at KG Resorts.
Kishen, Babu and everyone else learns about this and they all make a mad rush for KG Resorts. Gopi finds himself a part of the gang. Who gets the diamonds? Does Gopi manage to take Kishen to Hoshiyarpur? And was the land just a meager piece of land or something more? The answers are out in black and white by the time you go through this hectic cinematic maze!

Bosch SHU5312 - stuck in cycle
Model Number: SHU5312/U12 Brand: Bosch Age: 5 - 10 years
Recently my Bosch SHU5312/U12 started showing a 2h cycle time when starting a regular wash cycle. It use to say 91 (for 91 minutes) it then runs for 2hrs but gets stuck at the 1 min point and continues to run. We cancel the cycle, it then drains out and quits. I have read here that this may be a heater or controller board problem but had no seen where the cycle time has changed. Any ideas? BTW - the controler board was replaced at year 1 under warrenty.

Most likely the problem is a bad control module. This is one of most common problems with Bosch dishwashers.
- The part number for the control module is AP2802870 Gene.

You'll find that the circuit board behind the display has a burned solder joint on the relay junction. I repaired mine using some solder and a short piece of wire. Works fine and probably much more reliable than the original install.
If you own and can operate a soldering iron, you probably posses the rest of the skills to fix this yourself. |

Ahhhh 17-- The Eastern Star
The Eastern Star appeared in the Detroit Free Press on Dec 15th, 1933.
This pattern is one of my favorite yet. I know I said African fabric this week but this was just too pretty of a block to not use my kaleidoscope fabric on. I actually prepared one to make out of Asian fabrics too; but it's not ready to show to you yet.

The new premium handset will make its debut Mar. 29 to fill the void left by the global recall of the Galaxy Note 7 over a series of battery fires late last year.
Before launching the device, the Seoul-based company is gaining the spotlight here and abroad thanks to growing attention on the specifications of the new smartphone.
The company has yet to confirm any specific features of the new Galaxy device, but a series of specifications have been leaked in recent months.
In particular, the company is known to have focused on improving and enlarging the display size, in an apparent bid to meet growing demand for large-size smartphones combined with a minimized handset size.
Earlier this month, Samsung was confirmed to have filed a trademark for an "infinity display" to be featured in the new Galaxy device, according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The infinity display refers to an edge-to-edge display with an almost bezel-less design.
According to multiple reports, the company is expected to launch two flagship devices -- tentatively named the Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus -- equipped with 5.8- and 6.2-inch displays.
"The larger and wider screen is not aimed at maximizing revenue, as this is the first time for Samsung to manufacture the unprecedented organic light-emitting-diode (OLED) display size," a company official said.
"If revenue maximization had been the core strategy for Samsung, the firm would have opted for the existing smaller display size, which does not require a big investment."
Another feature will be its much-hyped artificial intelligence (AI) voice assistant, Bixby, which came in partnership with its recently acquired AI software firm Viv Labs.
Late last month, Samsung Electronics Vice President Rhee In-jong explained the move came as part of efforts to build what it calls an open AI platform where the internet of things (IoT) can be interconnected through voice control.
The G8 is also expected to come with iris-scanning security software, which was unveiled for the first time in Samsung's ill-fated Note 7. In mid-August, Samsung wowed customers by equipping the scrapped device with the world's first iris scanner, which the firm said comes with higher security levels, compared to the existing fingerprint handset unlocking system.
The company, however, will not adopt dual camera modules for the S8, and instead, focus more on generating a high-end, sleek design with the immersive display feature.
At this year's Mobile World Congress (MWC), LG Electronics and emerging Chinese counterparts picked the improved dual camera functions as a key marking point for their new smartphones.
"Dual cameras have been one of the basic features for LG and other Chinese handset makers at the MWC 2017, but Samsung is unlikely to follow the same path," said Park Gang-ho, an analyst at Daishin Securities. "The firm will instead focus on form factor changes with the bezel-less design and edge-to-edge flexible OLED displays."

The Lost Voice of Sarah Siddons
Sarah Siddons was called the greatest actress of all time. Unfortunately she died before audio recordings were invented. But is the sound of Sarah Siddons' voice lost forever? Judith Pascoe, an English professor at the University of Iowa, thinks maybe not.—Original airdate: 9/24/2012

Well...folks...as usual, it's been a while.
And I am warning you right now...if you like clear and concise blog posts...this one is NOT for you...
I guess I could be a more faithful blogger. For example, I've been telling myself I should post my Walt Disney World Marathon playlist...and then I realized I had a story for every.single.song. I'm not sure even I have time to put that to paper. If you are dying to know what I had on my 1st Marathon playlist, I'd be happy to post it. Expect a lot of dance music and "Glee" covers. Sorry, not sorry.
At this point, I've been a marathoner for almost 3 months. Sometimes, I'll just look at my medal plaque...and just remember what an awesome weekend it was. Then I realize how lucky I am to have experienced so many amazing things.
Oh, speaking of Disney...Walt Disney World has gone DOPEY!!!! Yes, folks...for 2014, Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend has gotten bigger...and yours truly could win SIX medals...all I need to do is just run 48.6 over the span of four days. Easy, right?!?
No, I just vomited in my mouth. So, this year, if you run the 5k, the 10k (starring Minnie Mouse...Meh is all I have to say about her), the half marathon, and the full marathon...You successfully complete the Dopey Challenge. Part of me is really really really really really kinda turned on by the idea of collecting SIX MEDALS...and being part of the inaugural year...
...but then I remind myself it's 4 days...of having to get up at the ass crack of dawn...to run...a lot. 10k - I can handle (that's 6.2 miles for those not in the know)...I can probably do the half the next day...But then running an additional 26.2 miles the day after?!?!? Even doing the GOOFY challenge makes we want to die a little inside...
So, there is a still an incredibly insane part of me that wants to take on this monumental undertaking...but then I think of the pain and mental anguish I'd feel...Not to mention, I can't imagine wanting to do anything but sit poolside, shoving my face with pasta and/or beer between runs.
So, I will be in Disney for WDW Marathon weekend (registration starts April 9th)...and right now, I think I'll register for the 10k (But really...RunDisney...Minnie?!?!?!?) and have to decide between the half or the full. I am ALWAYS looking for travel/running buddies. However, you need to be good at the whole planning thing. I just pay the money and train for the races.
...with that being said, so many other awesome things have been going on in my life...
I will be running the Tower of Terror 10 Miler again with Jenna...It's going to be our annual tradition. And since I was talking about vomiting in my mouth...
...I will be departing for Disney early in the morning immediately after my little sister's wedding...to then run 10 miles in 80 degree heat (100% humidity, probably) at 11:00 PM dressed as Hercules.
I believe this is where the young'uns would type something like "YOLO", right!?
...Crossfit is actually going AMAZINGLY well. Although I still have yet to master the Power Snatch (go ahead...giggle...I do it EVERY.SINGLE.TIME)...I am getting it. I am giving myself time to understand what I am doing there. I am not giving up. I even got a few Double Unders...I think it clicked for me one day after class...I had actually been successful at doing the WOD...It was push presses and pull ups or something...and the weight wasn't anything incredible...but I did it.
And I sat there and said to myself "If you aren't an alpha male, why you are you trying to lift alpha male weight?!?!?!"
It's true. I'm not there to compete on a world stage. I'm there to build strength...I'm there to be part of a fitness community...and I'm there to learn. And if I give myself time, it will come to me.
And for the first time, I actually felt like part of the community. The competition level workout was a 500m row, a 400m run, and then 50 Double Unders. I haven't mastered the Double Under...so, apparently, if you do single jump ropes, you need to multiply the amount of Double Unders by 3. That's 150 jump ropes...AFTER rowing 500m and running 400m. And we had to do it three time...
...and Mary looked at me and said "Let's do it." And we did. And I kicked its ass...and to have someone else cheering me on is truly what it's about it...Instead of having someone yell at me about form (which is completely okay, too, because that's where I know I need the most growth)...
It is also important to point out that with Crossfit and my AllState 13.1 Half-Marathon/Long Branch Half training (more on that later), that I feel and look the best I ever have...
So...I remind myself of this saying every time I step foot in the Box (go ahead, giggle about this one too...)
...Ya know, I'd like to shake Earl Nightingale's hand... |
So, we feeling inspired?!?!?
...well, this is where the blog takes a tumble...but then uplifts you again...Stay with me, people.
For the first time since May 2011, I weighed officially as a Weight Watchers member and employee over goal. And we aren't talking a few ounces over goal. We are talking 7 pounds over goal (almost 4 pounds over the highest I can be.)
...now, in this information age, I went back and forth on whether I should share this fact. It's something I'm not necessarily proud of, but I also realized (in the span of a number of car rides where I talked out loud to myself about the whole thing) that it's something I'm not ashamed of either...
I also need to make sure that this is viewed within the context that it happened -
- I have been tracking. I've been making the best choices I can, most of the time.
- I have NOT been sitting home, on my couch, eating pints of Ben and Jerry's for dinner like I used to.
- I may have gone out too frequently and not been as attentive to program while I was out, enjoying adult beverages. However, the next day, I refocused and treated every meal as a new beginning.
- I have been faithfully training for the NY/NJ Challenge and I have been consistently going to Crossfit.
...there's a number of things I needed to consider...
- My increased activity, and building muscle, may have something to do it. HOWEVER, I am fully aware that muscle does not weigh more than fat. A pound of fat and a pound of muscle...still weigh a pound.
- Maybe my nights out caught up to me and I wasn't able to shed the weight as quickly as I used to.
- I actually attempted to weigh in earlier that week, and was only .8 over the highest in my range. In retrospect, I should've taken it.
- I weighed in the morning after running a half-marathon...and having Chinese food for dinner (tracked and accounted for.)
...cute AND can last longer than 2 hours... |
So, I need to put this in perspective...and the truth of the matter is, and everyone has been saying it, the scale isn't always the indicator of success.
Ultimately, I know what it will take to get back to goal....and I'm not talking the highest in my range...I am talking my actual goal weight.
The other thing that I needed to remind myself is that I will always be a Weight Watchers member...There may come a time when I won't be a Weight Watchers employee. I need to make sure that I am putting myself first as I strive to maintain my weight loss. Yes, it is a requirement for me to stay employed...but it is a requirement I put on myself so that I can be happy.
...and being a member, for life, may mean that some months are harder than others...I see it every week in work...sometimes, LT members have to pay. I'm NO different from any other Weight Watchers member out there just because I work for them. Yes, do I strive to be at goal to be a constant example to members who attend my meetings...absolutely. But, I also think it makes me more relatable when I do struggle.
...Ultimately, I got this. The scale doesn't dictate who I am. It may be cliche, but what the scale says is failure, not feedback. I am striving for progress, not perfection. This set back is merely a set up for the quite amazing comeback.
So, god willing, I'll be alive for another 30, 40, 50 years...and Weight Watchers will always be part of my life. As long as I can say I've been Lifetime at goal more than I haven't...I'll be okay.
And I've been at goal for almost two years...one month doesn't change all the amazing things I've accomplished since I shed 50 pounds...
...it won't change that I have run 6 half marathons...
...it won't change that I hit my PR this past Saturday...
...it won't change that I am a marathoner...and will be a 2 time marathon come November...
...it won't change that I am a 32 waist, when I used to be a 38 waist...
...it won't change that I FEEL and LOOK the best I ever have...
...it won't change that I finally have confidence...(yeah, as a 30 year old, good to finally get some of that, right?)
...it won't change that I will be on TV talking about my weight loss (...you'll have to come back when it airs for the full experience write up...)
...and it can't take back, that for the first time ever in my life, I will be comfortable wearing tank tops this summer...after some important manscaping... (and I apologize in advance for the jankity dressing room selfie...at the point that I took it, I had ZERO plans to share it...but, I mean, hey, I look kinda cute...)
...yes, gents...I'm single... |
See you next month,

This Week
Looking for something to do this week? We check out some of Auckland's best events.
Main Event
Russell Brand: I am a Walrus - Wednesday
Russell Brand is known for being a few things: radio host, actor, ex-husband of Katy Perry and Shagger of the Year (three times). But it's his original love, stand-up comedy, which is bringing him to Auckland this week.
The man with the dirty mouth and cheeky approach is one of the biggest comedians on the planet, and he's about to show Vector Arena just how good he is.
Russell Brand, November 28 at Vector Arena. Tickets from Ticketmaster.
Free Stuff
The Telecom Christmas Tree - from Saturday
Every year it wows locals with its size and this year will be no exception. The Telecom Christmas tree might have moved - it's in Victoria Park now - but with more than 375,000 lights, it's just as bright.
There are the usual extras as well - a direct line to Santa and a spot to leave presents for Auckland City Mission and Kidz First Children's Hospital.
The Telecom Christmas Tree, from December 1 at Victoria Park. Entry is free.
Family Fun
A Wild Night with Bear Grylls - Sunday
The worldwide explorer might not be wrestling dangerous creatures or eating sheep's eyeballs, but he will tell audiences all about it at this live show.
The Man vs. Wild host is one of the most watched TV presenters in the world - the show screens in more that 200 countries and this two hour show will feature footage from it, as well as behind the scenes explanations and tall tales.
A Wild Night with Bear Grylls, December 2 at Vector Arena. Tickets from Ticketmaster.
Date Night
RNZB Giselle - from Thursday
Ballet might not be the obvious choice for a date night, but you might be surprised. The Kiwi dancers prove themselves time and again to be athletes, and Giselle is a darker story than some of the company's more recent offerings, covering all the bases: disguise and revelation, love and jealousy, heartbreak and death. So why not give it a try.
RNZB Giselle, November 29 - December 2 at ASB Theatre. Tickets from Buy Tickets.
Staying In/Going Out
It only lasted one season in the States, but Pan Am is an interesting prospect of a telly show. Set when jetting across oceans was still a novelty, this series has spies, lies and love affairs dressed up in matching uniforms.
Pan Am on TVOne, 9.30pm Saturday
There is something very cool about street food, and the newly opened Ponsonby Central is all about it. With everything from coffee to Latin tastes, you could almost name the flavour and it would be there waiting for you.
Ponsonby Central, 136 Ponsonby Rd

Dictionary of Literary Biography on Peter (John) Dale
Like many poets writing since World War II, Peter Dale works in both formal and free verse. Seeking clarity above all else, Dale stands ready to use whatever is appropriate, and often his best writing is done while he is poised between the traditionalist's respect for meter and rhyme and the revolutionary's conviction that only freedom produces authenticity. Though usually formal on the surface, Dale's poems employ numerous variations in meter and line length. His career does not divide into two neat periods, one formal the other free; instead he has consistently been willing to take advantage of the latitude offered by free verse without forgetting the forms that make such latitude meaningful in the first place. By today's standards Dale must be judged a formalist, but it is important to remember some of his short, free poems and to recognize the liberties taken even in his most...

Ahh. Bliss. Each time I drink this I imagine juicy apricots in summer. I am enjoying this with a bag of trail mix; as usual I'm hoarding the apricot pieces until the end. I just realized I've got a little theme going. :)
(Please see other tasting notes – this is a fave!)
