I was interested to see recently that Sussex farmer Peter Gunner's tree-planted take on John 14: 6 got a run in the media recently, being picked up by the Daily Mail and others. Old news of course, to Inspire website readers who would have read about his splendid venture in September 2011 ...
Still, it's good to see it getting another wider airing – wonder how many light aircraft pilots, microlite flyers and others have seen it?

@rexLocale: Central California Coast
Thanks for the overview.
A few more tips:
– Your hydration and salt needs will change over time. What you need (or didn't need) in your 20s is not the same as in your 50s. What worked last year, might not work this year. Pay attention to your body! Ask me how I know :-)
– Thermotabs salt pills have 180 mg Sodium, and are relatively cheap and widely available.
– Remember: Everybody is different.

@luffarjohanLocale: Wrong place at the right rime
Thanks for the article, the subject is quite intresting. I've had a lot of emphasis on dealing with cold temperatures but not so much with hot weather.
I've made my own poor mans sports drink using salt-packets from McDonalds and other lunch restaurants. Can't remember the weight of each packet though but I thnk it was something like 2g.

NUUN brand electrolyte tablets are pretty good as well and come in some great flavors. They now offer different types of tablets according to activity.Jul 24, 2013 at 7:56 am #2009008
Sara MarchettiBPL Member
This year, company under the sun has come out with an electrolyte supplement like Nuun. When I went into REI a few weeks ago, I was blow away by the choices. As a trail runner, I get into the habit of religiously taking salt supplements every hour. I prefer Nuun while my wife prefers SCaps. I highly recommend salt supplementation to backpackers as well. Many people have told me that they get an extra zip in their step after such supplementation. The truth is most likely that they aren't dehydrating and thus feel more energized than normal. We live in a dessert/high altitude climate so we don't have much of a choice. I'm not a big fan of other forms of electrolyte replacement because they tend to be too heavy. If you want your best bang for weight, I'd go with the capsules like SCaps. The weight is negligible.Jul 24, 2013 at 8:00 am #2009009

From Kevin's article –
"How about electrolytes? By far the main electrolyte we lose in sweat is sodium. In high exertion activities such as running athletes can lose up to 0.07 oz (2 g) of sodium per hour.
"Backpackers are unlikely to lose anywhere near that much unless environmental conditions and their duration and level of exertion are well beyond the norm.
"Additionally most backpacking foods contain high concentrations of salt/sodium. However if you're drinking 0.5 to 1 L of water per hour, you may need to consider salt supplementation."
Just for reference –
The typical replacement target is one gram of sodium per liter of water.
—Edit: IF event duration and conditions suggest the need….Go back and read the article!
MYO Caps: '00' gelatine caps filled with table salt.
Costs are "typical", no "digging for deals".
Edit: "Active Nunn" sodium content corrected.Jul 24, 2013 at 10:23 am #2009049
1. My comment about most running events lasting only 10-14 minutes referred to an example I removed about the 1500m-3000m races the kids I coach race. Obviously most adults race 5-10K and beyond: the longer the race time the greater the risk for dehydration. Sorry about this miss in editing.
2. Agree with Rex–it's unclear how age affects sweating/salt BUT clearly if you're not acclimated to heat you could get very different results using the same hydration strategy.
3. Johan: I often make my own recovery beverage by adding ~1/8tsp of table salt per quart of whatever I'm drinking. Cheaper than anything else you can buy! paper packets would be prone to moisture unless protected.
4. Donna/Sara: Yes, I love Nuun. If I'm really thirsty little else tastes as good. For lightweight backpacking there are lighter ways to replace your sodium–each tablet has ~350mg. (There are three varieties of Nuun with different sodium content–this refers to Nuun Active: Each tube of Nuun contains 12 tablets. Each tablet makes 16 oz. of Nuun, and delivers 360 mg Sodium / 100 mg Potassium / 25 mg Magnesium / 13 mg Calcium)
5. Sara: Yes, Carson backpacks in Hokas. He had a heel problem from running (now resolved). I've used them for backpacking a couple of times when I had an old pair laying around but use them mostly for steep trail running.
6. Greg: See #4-The "Active" Nuun has 360mg sodium per capsule: "U Natural" and "All Day" produces have less/no sodium. Thanks for the comparison table!
I'll be in King's Canyon for the next few days and unable to respond to comments until I return.Jul 24, 2013 at 12:07 pm #2009084

Why wouldn't you use sea salt that has up to 50 trace minerals rather than table salt?Jul 24, 2013 at 12:17 pm #2009087
No specific reason except it's cheaper and what I have. I figure I get my trace minerals from my healthy and varied diet and a multiple vitamin per day. Absolutely agree that avoiding processed foods is a good thing though.Jul 24, 2013 at 12:17 pm #2009088
Greg MihalikBPL Member
@greg23Locale: Colorado
Works for me. If you've got sea salt, use it. Just depends on personal preferences.
Others elsewhere here (search electrolytes) use a mix of regular and "lite" salt to take advantage of the potassium.Jul 24, 2013 at 1:15 pm #2009099
Lisa WilkinsSpectator
I've tried a liquid product called Elete with good success. It has everything you need: potassium, chloride, magnesium, & sodium with no sugar, flavors or junk. Although the formula may be overkill for the average hiker/backpacker it's dummy proof. Since it's liquid you can just decant what's needed for your trip length into a small plastic bottle. It's cheap, light and doesn't have much taste. I just add it to my water bladder with each refill. Found on website: basegear.com but I'm sure it can be found elsewhere.Jul 24, 2013 at 1:16 pm #2009100

This write-up was timely, and I appreciate Greg's summary table. I ordered s!caps right away.
I would've liked to have seen a bit more of the medical background in the writeup. There is an awful lot of hype out there–how do you tell what is marketing vs. reality?Jul 24, 2013 at 1:21 pm #2009104
What were you hoping to know that wasn't covered? It's not clear from the article but I am a physician and can add additional information. I tried to strike a balance between the practical and technical–but can be more technical if you have a specific question!Jul 24, 2013 at 1:43 pm #2009108

I had no idea you were a physician. While I applaud your understatement, it might be valuable to include your credentials (at least an M.D. behind your name).
Here are some further questions that I'll let you be the judge of whether or not they belong in the article.
How much variability in the quantities of water/sodium for people who sweat profusely? My teen son doesn't sweat at all. Not even in sweat tests at the doctor. Me? I sweat profusely. I can be drenched head to toe in a humid environment within an hour, and consume 5 liters of water in ~6 hours of hill hiking and still be dehydrated with dark yellow urine. Should I be consuming more
I like your guideline of adding 300-600mg sodium per liter. Is there a guideline for total sodium I should be consuming that I can look at my meals and beef jerky to balance? Should I be worried about ensuring I don't overload?
You talk of sodium. What of all the other electrolytes that other companies are adamant that we'll keel over without? My understanding is that Magnesium is important, but a quote I just found onthe Succeed website: "Magnesium is another intracellular ion that, like potassium, is lost in sweat and urine during exercise. But the losses are trivial. There is no published evidence showing that magnesium deficiency is either common amongst the physically active, or that magnesium supplementation can either increase the intracellular magnesium stores, or enhance performance." Dr. Timothy Noakes Sports Nutrition: Fluid, Electrolytes, and Minerals (Report from the World Forum on Physical Activity and Sport, Quebec City, Canada, 1995.)
The symptoms of hyponatremia sound very similar to dehydration: poor performance, cramps, lightheadedness, low blood pressure. Are there better differentiators? Are there field tests that can be performed for both (ie.I had forgotten about the pinch test for dehydration)?
Thanks!Jul 24, 2013 at 3:21 pm #2009124

One aspect of hydration is the storage container used. Over the last couple of decades, most people have switched over to using water bladders in their packs as they appear to be convenient. Having used them for years, I know that they are awesome for mountain biking or motorcycling, but I prefer using plain ol' disposable bottles for the hiking trail. Why? One reason is that I don't need to take up valuable "real-estate" in my backpack for water. Another is that I have no risk of leakage on my gear. Lastly, I always know how much water is left. I usually only carry two liters at a time, but occasionally carry three (two 1.5 liter bottles). With my Sawyer filter bag, I can expand my capacity to five liters (Ugh!) The disposable bottles weigh very little as well. I like the smartwater bottles, but find myself looking for new styles when I go to whole foods or other high end outlets. If a bottle gets trashed, guess what? Another one is as close as the nearest liquor store!Jul 24, 2013 at 3:58 pm #2009134
1. "How much variability in the quantities of water/sodium for people who sweat profusely?"
A. A lot! I almost didn't want to give specific advice about how much to drink and how much salt to take but you've got to start somewhere. People can lose up to 2g of sodium per hour and ~2 liters per hour. I'd advise that you replace to thirst, to relatively clear urine and to take ~600mg of sodium for every liter of water they drink. You're not likely to get into problems within these parameters because we have a lot of excess salt in our diets and our kidneys can regulate fluid and sodium pretty well (unless you have a problem with your kidneys of course!)
2. "What of all the other electrolytes that other companies are adamant that we'll keel over without?"
A. You actually quoted the author (Timothy Noakes) I used partially as my source for this article. Evidence is that sweat losses of Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium are very small and Zinc pretty small. They probably don't hurt (unless they upset your stomach) but you probably don't need them under most circumstances.
3. "Should I be worried about ensuring I don't overload?"
A. See last sentence of #1 above–you can regulate pretty well. It is more likely that you'd overload with water than salt. Studies at Western States have found a correlation between salt craving and hyponatremia (low sodium). If you crave salt you probably need it, if you don't you probably don't. (Excepting that if you're REALLY far gone and have nausea you may crave nothing!)
4. "Are there field tests that can be performed for both (ie.I had forgotten about the pinch test for dehydration)?"
A. That's a tough question. If your skin is "tenting" on the pinch test you're probably REALLY deyhdrated: it's not a sensitive indicator. Whether you crave salt (or not)may be a potential indicator of enough sodium (see #3 above). Your thirst is certainly an indicator of dehydration and Dr. Noakes (see Waterlogged: http://www.amazon.com/Waterlogged-Serious-Problem-Overhydration-Endurance/dp/145042497X ) feels that it is an adequate enough guide of hydration even for athletes. Finally a potentially embarrassing answer that I'll rely on the mature and sophisticated members of this forum not to "Ewww!" about. We all come with a built in sodium sensor (our tongues). I've tried to taste a drop of my urine during Western States and other high intensity trips to see whether it tasted salty or not. If it does my body is wasting salt and probably has enough, if not, I'm unlikely to do harm by taking a little more.
Have fun with that one!! (Urine is generally sterile and anything living there is not likely to be too happy in your stomach.)Jul 24, 2013 at 4:05 pm #2009137

Wilderness and Environmental Medicine journal has an article in press about hyponatremia. A chart gives signs and symptoms of exercise-associated hyponatremia vs heat illness vs altitude illness. The only differentiating signs/symptoms in some situations were temperature, respiratory distress and diuresis. It goes on to say "…the only reliable method of diagnosing EAH at present is through measurement of serum sodium concentration."
Odd that they didn't mention skin turgor.Jul 24, 2013 at 4:10 pm #2009138

Some online hydration articles say our urine should be clear. The term clear is a description of clarity and not color. Our urine should be colorless or pale/pale yellow, not dark yellow or dark any other color. Of course some foods and meds may change the color.Jul 24, 2013 at 7:15 pm #2009191
Light and dark urine is not ONLY caused by dilution. It may be that you are simply not eating enough and your body is metabolizing more fats and protiens from it's stores. Usually, such muscle damage is associated with highly active people and is repaired during the period of recovery that follows (often overnight, but may extend to 48 hours. Like everything else, bodily repair can be accilerated by constant use.) Even though you drink normally, your urine can change color. This is usually not much concern, but don't go into panic mode and start drinking more than you need. This will just flush salt and trace elements out faster. Get comfortable with your metabolism. Knowing what a normal variation in the color of your urine is will help.Jul 24, 2013 at 7:40 pm #2009200

is your urine clear at home?
Not to be too personal, but mines not.
Some foods/medicines, etc can color it too.
Yeah, if I drink a lot, so that I pee it all out every 30-60 min, it runs pretty clear.
But thats not reality,thats being overly conservative with fluid intake.
A better indication to me most of time , is my saliva.
When it starts to get thick and sticky, I know Im getting dehydrated.Jul 24, 2013 at 8:20 pm #2009218

Several years ago on a hot summer day four of us hiked to Mt Persis, a short (4 miles roundtrip) hike with about 2600' gain. One woman drank 7 liters of plain water during the hike, convinced she needed the water because "it was so hot." She didn't want any electrolyte supplements. We told her she was drinking too much water. She fainted when we got home, which reinforced her belief she should have drunk even more. Nothing we said would convince her otherwise. Mindset can be a serious roadblock to sensible hydration, whether it's too little or too much to drink.
I got this recipe for a homemade electrolyte drink that works quite well if you don't want to by the commercial versions. I wish I could remember where I got it to give proper credit.
1 package koolaid, any flavor
½ C sugar
¼ ts salt
1/8 ts salt substitute
8 C waterJul 24, 2013 at 8:39 pm #2009229
Ha, hey, you can also substitute an 1/8 to 1/4 cup wine vinegar or cider vinegar for the koolaid.
I always called it Farmers Drink from my days working on the farm with my grandfather.

Dame Ann Leslie, 67, has reported for the 'Daily Mail' from more than 70 countries, covering the fall of the Berlin Wall and the release of Nelson Mandela. She has appeared on 'Question Time' and 'Any Questions?' Her autobiography, 'Killing My Own Snakes', is out now.
My mother had many marvellous qualities, but being maternal was not one of them. She preferred to have me off the premises. We lived in India, where my father was in the oil business, and at the age of four I went to boarding school. I remember I was always being put on huge, long trains. I went to so many boarding schools. The one I remember with enormous affection was St Hilda's, an Anglican school in Ooty [Tamil Nadu, southern India]. I liked the routine and the certainty that we would have puffed rice and eggs for breakfast.
I knew instinctively that I wouldn't be allowed to stay for a long time. There were what I saw as omens. I was taking a dog for a walk and a panther got it; later I was bitten by a rabid dog. And at nine and a half, I went "home", not to where we lived in India, but to exile in England.
The Presentation Convent in Matlock was the most ghastly culture shock. This bloody school in the Peak District was so cold and damp that I had permanent chilblains. I was totally miserable. It was so Catholic: there were endless masses and confessions. But there was one nun who was an absolutely brilliant teacher. She realised that I was a swot and gave me private classes. There was nothing to do apart from bloody praying, so I would read. I don't think I would have been even half-way educated if I had been happy. I did my O-levels early, at 14 and a half, and went to the Convent of the Holy Child in Mayfield, Sussex.
I liked this convent. My swottish habits meant that I was ahead scholastically. I took English, history and French A-levels. I had a separate room to myself instead of being in a dormitory. This school was more upper class; various ancient Catholic families sent their children here. Also, Latin-American diplomats used to send their children, all looking like Gisele Bündchen. Every now and then, these gorgeous parakeets would go into a huddle and sob and scream: their parents would have written to say that they were now in an arranged marriage with the man who owned the other half of Chile.
Cambridge was going to give me a scholarship, but at the interview they thought I was trivial because I enthused about films made of Shakespeare plays. They only offered me an exhibition but Oxford gave me a scholarship to read English at Lady Margaret Hall.
I panicked at my prelims in my first year, as I hadn't done much work. I didn't fail, but I only passed by a whisker. In my finals, I think I was vivaed for a First but I got a Second.
Oxford was amazing. I wasn't glamorous but was always in the slipstream of glamorous people such as Paul Foot and Richard Ingrams, the intellectual stars. This was a good preparation for being a foreign correspondent, a life spent in the slipstream of great world events. I didn't do any journalism but my then boyfriend, now my husband, used to write for Isis. Michael had a girlfriend but I persuaded him to dispose of her. Alan Coren, who later became editor of Punch, said years later that he was always trying to get off with me but I must say I never noticed.
There was a big shambling blond guy. He would come into my room and show me the poetry he had written and I would jeer about it with my friends. He was Stanley Johnson, father of Boris, and he won the prestigious Newdigate prize for poetry. I used to wonder how Stanley had got into Oxford. But never underestimate a Johnson! As they say of Hungarians, they go into the revolving door behind you – and get out in front.

"Trave to the Jurassic period to destroy all the coloured rocks you can find."
Only a person with enough guts would be able to travel back in time to the prehistoric stage and into the five realms of Jurassica.
Be prepared to go through the dense jungle, walk along the edge an erupting volcano or feel the icy cold of the glacier, which is the sort of thing you can expect in Stoneloops! of Jurassica.
Once you're in the Jurassic era, your mission in Stoneloops! of Jurassica is to destroy as many rocks as you can. The gameplay is very simple, inspired by the classic Zuma, where you should go shooting the balls flowing through the maze, to join three or more equal and thus make them completely disappear from the board.

By Marjolein Smit
Sally Field is back, and how! The Oscar winner now plays Doris. A woman, still living in the house where she grew up. When we meet her, her mother has just passed away. Her brother and his wife are trying to get Doris to sell the huge house in Staten Island so the money can be divided between them. But Doris wants nothing to do with it. She likes everything the way it has always been. Even if that means taking a ferry and a bus every day to her job in the city. She wears clothes that went out of fashion years ago. She saves things that have been thrown out on the street, because they are perfectly fine and can be of good use to someone, in her opinion. Everybody besides her knows that Doris really is a hoarder. At work she sits in a cubicle entering data in a computer like she has been doing since forever. She is so stuck in routine, so invisible that most people at work have no idea who she is.
Everything changes when a young man speaks a few words to her in the elevator at work. She falls head over heels in love with him, even though he is more than half her age. The man is soon reintroduced to her as her new art director. The slightly bruised John Freemont (Max Greenfield), who has just been dumped, is starting over. Working at a new firm, in a new city. Doris tries to get his attention but gets nowhere. At a self-help seminar she asks the guru how to get something you want. He tells her impossible can also be read as I'm possible and that's all she needed to hear. Doris befriends John on Facebook under a false name, with the help of her best friend Roz's granddaughter. She wants to find a way to get his attention. And it works. John is intrigued to see Doris eating his favorite snack with a CD of his favorite band on her desk. When John spots Doris at a concert of this band their connection starts to solidify.
As the movie progresses we learn through a fight Doris has with her brother that she has been stuck at home, taking care of their sick mother for years and years. While the brother got to life his live. Suddenly you understand that she has missed out on life. Has been stuck in time. Her awkwardness becomes understandable because you realize that she a bit like a sixty something starting to live for the first time. In many ways she is like an awkward teenager trying to fit in with a new group of people. She has to hit and miss, to figure out what works for her.
Sally Field turns a sad, outdated woman, in to someone you can't resist. As time passes you start to forget about Doris's weird clothes, crazy quirks, inappropriate remarks, her blindness to conventional unwritten rules of society and before you know it you are rooting for her. Impossible as her dream may be. It is a definitely go see from me!

Thunder's Half
It was not until they were halfway across the Atlantic that Tony strolled into the Helicarrier's main console room. Steve was sitting at the glass table, fiddling with a Rubik's cube. A bag of peanuts lay opened by his side.
Tony plopped into one of the rolling chairs across from Steve. "So what was that all about?" he asked.
"With Loki it's hard to say," Steve replied. "Apparently that's how he really looks." He scratched at the fresh bandage on his face.
Tony took a peanut from the bag, shelled it, and popped it into his mouth. "I'm not talking about him," he said. "I'm talking about you."
Steve almost did not meet that pointed dark stare. He sometimes forgot that for all of Stark's social awkwardness the latter was not as emotionally insensitive as he led others to believe. There was a reason Pepper Potts had worked for him for so long.
Steve set down the cube and sighed. "It's nothing," he said. "Just a little—"he broke off and sighed again. Tony waited patiently. "When I saw that much ice I was reminded of, you know."
"Hey, it's cool—no pun intended there," Tony replied, taking another peanut. "I have issues with caves and people dunking me. Aaaannd people handing me things, and chintzy bourbon and power outages and…well, actually I have issues with a lot of things, but who doesn't these days?" Steve gave something between an exhale and a chuckle.
"So how'd you get over it?" Tony asked.
"You came back. We're big men, Cap, and we can talk about our feelings." Tony seemed to consider. "Sometimes."
Steve rolled his eyes. "Running into Loki is enough to take your mind off of anything," he began. "But even that bastard noticed. For half the trip he was informing me of the different ways ice can kill people."
Tony snorted. "Figures."
"Yeah, swell. Just as I was about to stick my shield where the sun didn't shine…well, I don't know. Something changed," Steve said, giving a lopsided smile. "All that talk of hypothermia and frozen water puncturing your cell walls kind of made me realize that there are worse things out there."
Tony wore an expression that Steve typically only witnessed when he was creating files on his 3D database. Not surprised; only inquisitive. "You think Reindeer Games did that on purpose?" Tony asked. "I hate to admit it, but his asshole meter was pretty low today. Maybe it was the new makeover."
"I don't know." Steve looked down at his cube and shook his head. "There's a lot I don't get—that I don't think any of us are really supposed to get, but I know we could use Thor back on the team," he said.
Tony pushed back his rolling chair. "Agreed," he grunted as he eased himself out of it. "C'mon, let's take your mind off it, Cap." He grinned and clapped a hand on Steve's shoulder. "What are your feelings on the Blue Man Group?"
The traducing vox populi on Asgard claimed that the second son of Odin was inept at fighting. Quite the contrary, Loki could fight just fine. He simply preferred not to. Why sport all of those mangling scars when your head worked just as well? The few beings on Asgard who could ever provoke Loki into an actual physical match were, respectively, Sif and Thor. The rest he could send quivering with merely a wag of his tongue and nothing more.
As such, Loki could not remember being this sore since the good Doctor Banner had forcibly introduced him to a tile floor. Granted Thor's brute strength was a challenge to combat on a good day, but the energies from lost worlds made him increasingly unpredictable in battle. Although Loki himself was at the peak of his own power, he was already on battle-strategy number nine.
A fire burned in place of most of the forest—a direct result of Thor's lightning, so sharp and so hot that it had melted the surrounding snow and had set the trees ablaze. While fending off Thor with one hand Loki spent a good portion of his magic on smothering the flames. After all, fire was lethal to him now that he was wearing the skin of a Frost Giant. He hid in the smoke, but Thor spun his hammer and swept it back with a breeze. He tried calling to the animals of the earth in the Allspeak, but even they were afraid to come to his aid. All the while Thor fought fey and feral, using Mjölnir to coalesce the atmosphere and the land as one. This went on for some time.
Trees would not hold Thor. Neither would the Wind nor the Water. To some loose extent Loki could understand why Thor was fighting so hard; his brother was slowly being taken over from the inside out and was more confused and angry about that than he actually was with Loki. What Loki could not understand was why he was fighting just as passionately.
After roughly a day of trying to pin Thor down Loki had had enough. Sparring had never really been his thing. Loki licked the scars around his lips. Time to bring out the big guns, as he believed they said here on Midgard.
He beckoned the liquid fire from beneath the earth, the magma of quiescent volcanoes, and cooled it to form obsidian serpents. The magic protested against his skull but Loki ignored it and pushed; hundreds of snakes formed from ropy black matter, each as long as a river. They hissed and coiled around Thor, bearing fangs that dripped with the pollutions of the ground: pesticides, oil, sludge, acid.
"This might smart a little, brother," Loki said and made a gesture with his hand. The snakes sunk their fangs into Thor's flesh easier than a butter knife through cheese. When Thor's struggles weakened and slowed Loki walked over to him and placed his fingers at his brother's temples. The dark energy pulsed underneath Thor's skin, alive and tingling.
Loki faltered. He had gone through every possible scenario in his head, every possible outcome, but now that the figurative equivalent of the Big Red Button lay just beneath his fingers he still hesitated to push it. It would be so easy to simply leave Thor as he was. Why should he care if his brother fell from grace? It was what Loki had ever wanted and dreamed, after all.
And yet, there was something so unsatisfying about it. Who was Yin without his Yang?
At that moment Loki hated dichotomies with such a passion that he imagined the ground beneath him to crack with his anger. Two frustrated tears, dark blue, squeezed out and quickly escaped down the sides of his face before Loki even had the chance to register them. Curse the ancient Seid of Freya, curse the House of Odin. Curse Jötunheim. Curse Laufey for not having destroyed him at birth.
Loki took a breath and dispelled the corrupting magic.
For a moment he could feel Thor's essence, and, like he had always suspected, it was gold. Coruscating, molten. Like the threads the Norns spun at the base of Yggdrasil, like the Tiger's Eye amber of the great halls. Like Gungnir and Heimdall's teeth and the eyes of the fallen Kings of Valhalla. For a moment it warmed Loki and Loki found his rage momentarily forgotten. He felt, for the first time in centuries, good.
And then it was gone. The deed was done and Thor slumped to the ground with a groan. His red, red cape pooled around him, velvet mixing with blood. The igneous serpents gave a final flick of their tongues and returned to the earth.
Loki rose and stood over his brother. "Go find your little team when you can walk," he told him, though Thor was mostly lost to unconsciousness. "My work here is done." For a split second Loki's eyes flashed gold before dimming to their natural ruby red, as they had always been.
He barked something of a laugh then, splaying his fingers out before him. They were slender and blue—magician's fingers, but still his fingers right down to the bony knuckles. Loki wondered if they would prune again in Urd's Well.
Today he had saved Midgard from the weapon of his ancestors, along with freeing his brother from nefarious influences in the process. He had not done too shabbily in the end, horns and all. Loki wondered what Odin's face would look like when he discovered that he had almost turned his precious son into an agent of black magic. The image brought more exhausted laughter.
Thor would be alright. He would find his comrades and lover and proceed to stuff processed Earth food into his mouth and laugh along with them. Loki would return to Asgard. He did not expect anyone to thank him, but he preferred it that way. Loki did not believe in redemption any more than he did in love or freedom. That saccharine gold feeling of Thor's was merely fleeting, fading, being swallowed under Loki's own waves of blue and hoarfrost. It did not matter to Loki if his actions earned him a little more respect from those that he detested. He did not care if the Allfather was proud of him or not for what he had done. They were all lost to him, anyway.
Or so he told himself as Huginn swooped down and opened a portal to the place he had once called home.
Author's note: thank you all for reading! This, in all honesty, was a pain to write for numerous reasons, but I hope it turned out alright in the end. There are so many stories out there of Loki being possessed. I randomly had the idea to have Thor be the one possessed for once and wanted to see what I could do with it. I always have the compulsion to re-read and tweak my stuff even after posting, but I will try to keep my, ah, post-posting edits to a minimum. This will be posted at my DW account as well (fourteenpavanes). To Helennotoftroy: I hope you like it.

Brewers To Sign 3B Aramis Ramirez To Three-Year Contract
The Milwaukee Brewers will sign free-agent third baseman Aramis Ramirez to a three-year contract, a source has told ESPN.com.
Ramirez, 33, had a bounce back year in 2011 by hitting .306/.361/.510 with 26 home runs and 93 RBI in 149 games for the Chicago Cubs. The Brewers were reportedly interested in adding a power bat due to the potential loss of Prince Fielder to free agency, and Ryan Braun to a major PED suspension.
The Los Angeles Angels, Chicago Cubs, and Philadelphia Phillies were also reportedly interested in his services. Ramirez, a two-time All-Star, has a career 162 game average of .284/.342/.500 with 30 home runs and 108 RBIs. The veteran third baseman just finished a five-year $75 million contract with the Cubs, which paid him $14.6 million in 2011. Chicago picked up their half of a mutual 2012 option for Ramirez that would have paid the slugger $16 million in 2012, however Ramirez opted to turn down the option to declare for free-agency.

Question: What do pilots do after landing? Do they do final checklists? Do they complete flight paperwork and turn off a plane's computer off before leaving the plane? Do they hand in plane logs? Are cockpits locked while the plane is being readied for next flight?
Julia Anne Stetson, St. Augustine, Fla.
Answer: Let me address your questions one at a time:
Part one of question: What do pilots do after landing? Do they do final checklists?
Answer: After we land and are still rolling down the runway, there may be a shift of who's on the controls depending upon which pilot was actually doing the flying. Let me digress for just a moment to explain why.
Generally pilots alternate legs of a trip. That is, the captain may fly the first leg, the copilot the second, the captain again the third, etc. It doesn't matter if the leg is 45 minutes for a short domestic hop or an international flight of sixteen hours. There is one pilot who will do the flying including the takeoff and the landing. (On long international flights, relief pilots will relieve the primary crew as they take rest breaks, but only during cruise flight). The non-flying pilot works the radios and takes direction from the flying pilot with regard to flap settings, raising and lowering the gear, etc. On international legs there is actually quite a bit of work for the non-flying pilot with regard to position plotting, position reporting, communication with the airline and air traffic control, etc.
Several decades ago, the captain flew every single leg while the copilot worked the radios and was there to support him (I say "him" because there were no women in airline cockpits then). These days, alternation is the norm, but any pilot may still fly any leg. It's up to the captain. Many times, I will ask my own copilots if they'd like to fly a particular leg. Some will take me up on the offer to fly out of the "regular" sequence for a variety of reasons. Maybe they have family members on board and want to fly the leg, or perhaps we're flying into their hometown airport and they just enjoy landing there.
I mention all that to say that when we first touch down, if it was the copilot's leg, then somewhere on the landing rollout a transfer will take place as the captain once again takes control of the aircraft. The captain normally has control of the aircraft on the ground, although some airlines may allow copilots to taxi in different situations.
After landing, the captain will either announce "I've got it" or the copilot will state, "You've got the airplane." This usually happens around 60 knots or less. The copilot will wait until the captain's hand is poised over the throttles and ready to take control of them before removing his or her own hand. The captain also takes over the steering through the rudder pedals and, once slowed down to taxi speed, through the "tiller" which is operated with the hand to control our nose-wheel steering. The captain will start using the tiller at about 30 knots or less. Here is a photo of a B-737 tiller. You can see it's shaped like a section of a steering wheel and it's quite sensitive, so it's only used at slower speeds:
If the captain landed, then there is no transfer of control, and even though I just took quite awhile describing it, in real life it's a rather quick and absolutely routine event to transfer control if necessary on the landing rollout.
Once the plane has turned off the taxiway, the captain and copilot (and flight engineer in older airplanes) have certain duties to accomplish, referred to sometimes as the "after landing flow." For instance, the captain may be responsible for turning off the landing lights (they're always on for takeoff and landing, night and day, to make ourselves more visible to other aircraft), "stowing" the speed brake lever (used to raise panels on our wings to help destroy our lift after landing), turning off the auto-throttles, etc.
In this photo, find the speed brake lever, which is that smaller white lever just to the left of those two other cylindrical levers, which are the thrust levers.
When the speed brakes are in use (referred to as ground spoilers on the ground) that lever can move aft through the slot you see until it's all the way down. The lever normally moves automatically after landing but it's the captain's job to "stow" (move forward) the lever after landing.
The copilot has other items to attend to, like raising the flaps, changing the radio frequency from tower to ground control, etc.
Once parked at the gate with all engines shut down, the flight crew accomplishes a parking checklist. In some airplanes this is a physical list the copilot picks up and reads and both pilots respond to. On more advanced airplanes it's done using an Electronic Checklist or ECL which you can see here.
I don't have a photo of the parking checklist but it's the same idea. This is a before takeoff checklist and you can read the related column here..
Part two of question: Do they complete flight paperwork and turn off a plane's computer off before leaving the plane? Do they hand in plane logs?
It depends on the airline. Much of what pilots used to do in terms of paperwork during and after each flight has evolved with computers, and much of it is now automated. For instance, the times when our parking brake is released at the beginning of the flight, when we take off, when we touch down and set the brake at the arrival gate all used to be manually recorded, but now the airplane sends a message automatically to the airline and the pilots don't record anything other than for their own purposes.
Maintenance write-ups may be recorded in a physical logbook during or after a flight but may (again, depending upon the airline) all be entered into an onboard computer and sent directly to the maintenance facility for the airline.
Generally the airplane's computers are left on, although the screens are normally dimmed after a flight. If a flight is really going to be shut down all the way, which is more likely to happen on domestic flights laying over at small airports, then yes, everything gets shut down. Usually, however, when we leave the plane, either the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) or external power (think electrical cord) is powering the airplane, and the airline's maintenance personnel take charge of the airplane after the pilots are gone.
Airplane logbooks stay with the airplane. Pilots don't turn them in. Rather, maintenance personnel will look at them on the airplane and take them if they need to, returning them to the cockpit before the next flight. Some airlines don't even have logbooks anymore per se. Instead, there is simply a maintenance history which is carried in the cockpit similar to a logbook. The difference is, all entries are made through the computer and hard copies carried in this book, so pilots have all the information they need on board at any time.
Part three of question: Are cockpits locked while the plane is being readied for next flight?
Not necessarily, especially between flights with little time in between when airline personnel are around. On long layovers, maintenance personnel generally take control of the airplane and see that all discrepancies are addressed. If it is necessary to completely secure the airplane, maintenance personnel are more likely to attend to this than the pilots. It very much depends upon the airline, the size and staffing of the particular station, and its own policies. Jetway doors leading to the terminal and the tarmac are always kept secure other than when actually boarding passengers or airline personnel. In other words, the airplane itself is always kept secure through various means, and not just the cockpit.

Gaddafi's Gamble
For decades an enemy of the West, Libya is now desperately trying to rejoin the rest of the world. It is using its vast oil reserves -- to woo back former foes especially the United States. Gaddafi's Gamble asks: why now?
The film explores the recent history of Libya, isolated since Colonel Gaddafi seized power thirty-five years ago. The dictator squandered Libya's oil wealth; its economy is in ruins after years of bankrolling terrorists and dubious African liberation movements. Many Libyans are poor and increasingly angry about their situation. Professor George Joffe, Cambridge University, comments that Gaddafi has had to change his policies in order to keep his regime in power. He has accepted responsibility for the Lockerbie bombing, paid compensation to the victims' families, dismantled his nuclear weapons program, and renounced terrorism. He even claims to be moving Libya from socialism to capitalism, hoping he can generate a new market economy that is in tune with his mercurial one-man rule. To this end, he recently reinstated Shukri Ghanem, a respected official at OPEC, and ordered him to revitalize the economy.
The film includes interviews with Seif Gaddafi, the Colonel's influential son and heir apparent and Ashur Shamis, one of Libya's leading dissidents. Exiled in London, Shamis is disdainful about the Colonel's claims to democracy, claiming Gaddafi and his cronies want to keep the political status quo; those who have been associated with killing, repression and torture are still active in the government. Amnesty International's latest report says hundreds of political prisoners have disappeared and Libya is ruled by a climate of fear.

Bumming around Palma
Spent a day wandering around Palma... The city is quite large, and so I stuck mostly to the old areas of 'tourist' interest. There are churches, a cathedral, plazas and museums all over the place, but being there on a Sunday meant that I was limited in what I could see and do. Many thinks remain lose forgave reduced hours on Sundays, something that seems to be less common in North America but still prevalent in many other places. Being that I prefer architecture over spending ...

Stunning views, more interesting switchbacks and road maneuvering, a nice way to end rides.

Osaka: Production of Sharp Corp's screens for Apple Inc's latest iPhone is behind schedule as the Japanese display maker struggles with low production yields, a source close to the matter told Reuters on Friday.
Apple, which is also tapping other suppliers such as Japan Display and South Korea's LG Display Cofor the new, thinner displays, is planning a major launch on 12 September. That has raised expectations that the product will be its latest iPhone model.
Sharp President Takashi Okuda said on 2 August that his company would begin mass production and shipments from its Kameyama LCD plant in central Japan this month. The facility is widely known to make screens for Apple, but Sharp has declined to acknowledge that Apple is a customer.
Kameyama "is operational," Sharp spokeswoman Miyuki Nakayama said, declining to give details of either output or shipment levels.

About 84% of the electricity you use comes from hydroelectric dams in the Pacific Northwest. These dams have the capacity to generate 33,000 megawatts of clean, renewable, and affordable energy to the region.
Learn more about the benefits of hydropower at www.cleanhydro.com.
Because hydroelectricity has no carbon emissions, the region's carbon footprint is half that of other regions in the country. Hydropower also provides backup to wind resources when the wind doesn't blow.
The water that turns the turbines in a hydroelectric plant is continually replenished through rain and snow melt.
The Northwest has some of the lowest power rates in the country because of hydropower. It's much cheaper than many conventional and renewable generation resources, such as wind, solar, nuclear, coal, woody biomass or natural gas-fired plants.
Investments in dam improvements have boosted survival of young fish moving downstream to the ocean to 95% and higher at the federal dams. Customers are spending up to $1 billion a year through their electric rates on fish and wildlife projects.
Read more about how BPA's Fish & Wildlife Program is restoring salmon runs.
Generation at a hydroelectric plant can be ramped up and down quickly. This flexibility makes it a good partner for variable sources of generation, like wind.
Dams control flooding, provide irrigation for farmland, add millions of dollars to the economy through navigation and commercial transportation, and create recreational opportunities for residents and tourists. River navigation is the cleanest, most fuel-efficient mode of commodity transportation.

Whatever language she chooses to sing in Seidel makes
any song sound better than it should.
All about Jazz' USA : Online Guide
With 12 CD releases under her belt (La Brava Records) and over 20 years of experience, Janet Seidel has attained the kind of status and reputation for quality most performers around the world only dream about. She is one of the best jazz musicians Australia has ever produced.
With a fan base of thousands her concerts are usually sold out soon after tickets go on sale. She performs regularly in festivals around Australia, Asia and the United States with her quartet of superb musicians or can be seen in comfortable cabaret houses and private functions as a trio for more exclusive audiences.
Her communication with her audience is filled with delightfully funny anecdotes and a sense of humour to make you feel like going up for a chat after the show. No egotistical barrier is set to put you off.
vocalist/pianist Janet Seidel is a true blue jazz baby.
She's been compared to everyone from Doris Day to Peggy lee
and it's definitely fair to say that her understanding
of the classics is equal to that of those legendary greats.
She manages the
hat trick of sounding flirtatious, confident
and even wryly humorous, lending an extra depth to the songs.'
Scott Barker in Tuscon Lifesyle magazine USA
All shows are based around one or two x 40 minutes and can be performed as a trio or quintet. Feel free to talk to us about your specific needs if these formats do not suit.
Doris and Me
Janet Seidel presents her delightful celebration of the life and songs of Doris Day.
In her long film career Doris Day made 39 movies, 18 of which were musicals. Yet it is as a singer that she is most remembered. She recorded 650 songs many of which became popular in the standard repertoire. Songs like 'Secret love', 'Pillow talk' 'Somebody loves me' and 'Que sera sera' are forever associated with her sunny feel good delivery and pleasant sounding voice. It is from this huge repertoire that Janet Seidel has devised a performance celebrating the life and songs of Doris Day.
Janet has often been vocally compared to Doris Day and her show, funny and poignant at times, is presented with the superb arrangements which are very much the hallmark of Janet Seidel.
Dear Blossom
Janet's trio tribute to icon Blossom Dearie, launched in June 2004, has already enjoyed sell out seasons at National Press Club, Canberra; Adelaide Festival Theatre and Woodfire Cabaret in Sydney.
should send Janet Seidel flowers for her delicate and engaging tribute
to a truly eccentric music talent, the ageless Blossom Dearie. She takes
a representative sample from her catalogue and sings with a touch of the
breathy finesse that characterises a Dearie song. Seidel is a very fine
singer in a very cool way with a light touch on the keys.'

'Australia's Queen of Lounge' - Julia Lester from ABC Classic Drive
'Nothing can hide the subtle artistry Janet and her judiciously chosen coterie of jazz musicians bring to jazz standards.' - Drum media
'In the
second half the trio eases through a pile of audience requests (written
on paper slips) from Crazy to Sondheim's Send In The Clowns and Jobim's
One Note Samba. It was fun to watch them improvising arrangements as
they went, even decorating Crazy with backing vocals.'
- John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald
Chansons des Paris
From her popular CD Comme Ci Comme Ca this show features Janet's own arrangements and interpretations of the most popular songs by French Artists including Piaf, Aznavour, Montand, Trenet, Legrand and many more. For this show, the trio is joined by piano accordion maestro Kim Till.

'It is simply
more of the exquisite singing ...
'The Sydney-based singer
and pianist is without question
the most successful jazz influenced cabaret performer in Australia today.'
'Her style is distinctive. Her piano has a sense of rhythm and is tasteful. Her vocal is clear and natural which makes you feel like basking in a warm sunny place.
Her speaking tone and
singing voice sound the same: all of these aspects have helped create
her natural and honest vocal impression '
gifted... It is a measure of Janet's skill, sincerity
and admiration that during her performance it is to her
own interpretations of these wonderful songs
that all attention is drawn.'
'The dusky
sensuality blending innocence and desire,
the perfect phrasing, the odd devilish kick, and of course
the magical interplay between vocalist and ensemble.
'I had heard so
much about this delightful jazz star
from Australia, but I was still not prepared for this
awesome performance. I have never been so thrilled
by a performer. This lady is amazing - such pure clean vocals!

[PHOTO] PCI - Definitely not a Siberian X .......again? | Fri, 18 Oct 2002 07:39:32" />
