The King & I and Me (and Betty)!
I'm sorry that I'm not posting very often but as I am sure you all know I am busy being a Princess of Siam! Yes I am in a really brilliant production of The King & I at the Curve Theatre in Leicester.
Over 600 children auditioned for parts so I was really lucky to get chosen. We have been working really hard in rehearsals and had our first proper performance just over a week ago.
Urghhh for me that I was chosen to play one of the King's twins... guess who is my sister? Yes my own little sister Betty!
There are three teams of children in the show and we are in the Blue team. Our team is the best, everyone says so! We all get along really well - not like real brothers and sisters at all!
Tomorrow morning me and Betty are doing a live radio interview on BBC Radio Leicester, which is a bit scary but we have been with mum loads of times when she's done it - so I am sure we will be fine. I am going to take my camera - so hopefully I will have some new pictures to share really soon. Until then here are a few shots from rehearsals and some of the actual show - which i obviously didn't take because I am in them! LOL...
This is Betty with her Princess top knot - mum has been using a whole tube of hair gel every week!
Me in between shows in the theatre cafe, still in costume but with my dressing gown on so that I don't get dirty!
Our daddy The King of Siam, a quick pic before anyone noticed! He is cool and he has been in Dr Who and Sarah Jane Adventures - two of my favourite TV shows.
And this is us - the blue team in action. Betty is fourth from the left and I am 6th from the left on the front row!
Our awesome production of The King & I is on until January 15th 2011. You can try to book tickets here... but good luck because they are really hard to get hold of.

Porsche Boxster Spyder – 1st Ave @ 55th Street, NYC
June 16th, 2010 by
Sir Mix-A-Lot has nothing on this rump. The special edition Boxster, code name Spyder, is the latest rendition of the familiar mid engine ragtop from Stuttgart. The $61,200 Spyder is the subject of a rather flattering rear end treatment that pays homage to the hump-backed 550 Spyder popularized by none other than Mr. Cool himself, James Dean. Aside from the double bubble butt and rather primitive manual top, the Spyder is up 10 hp and down 176 pounds from sibling Boxster S (thanks largely to the removal of the automatic folding top). It also features a lower ride height and more aggressive suspension set up.

Porsche Mashup (Slantnose vs Cayman) – Meatpacking District, NYC
May 7th, 2010 by
I headed down to the utterly trendy Meatpacking District for dinner at the Standard Grill and was immediately distracted by all the choice rides strewn about Washington Street. First I peeped this tricked out Cayman S, complete with bitchin Sarona body kit, black wheels, tints and frosty Carrara White coloring. The stark white silhouette, in contrast with dark wheels, looked as if it was hovering above the asphalt. The owner gave me nasty looks from the nearby table he was sitting at as I snapped away at his baby. Maybe he thought I was an SEC auditor or something? Next up was this well-kept 911 Turbo Slantnose (aka Flatnose), "Flachbau" in German, parked around the corner. I was floored not least because of how rare these specially bodied 911s are, but because of how exotic it still manages to look more than 20 years later. Just another night in the Meatpacking District right?

Under the Hood: Bertrand Delacroix
May 5th, 2010 by
Pictured: Art dealer, silk screen artisan and lover of fine Porsches Bertrand Delacroix inside his print shop in the Boerum Hill area of Brooklyn
We peeked into Bertrand's massive Brooklyn loft with big, stupid grins plastered onto our faces. Why? Because the 16,000 square foot, mixed use building was filled with enough cool toys and hip furnishings to make any grown man blush. There is a hang glider suspended from the ceiling, vintage French mopeds displayed in the foyer, a beautiful wood-carved pool table and humidor and a bunch of over sized modern paintings hanging from the wall. Perhaps coolest of all, there is a 1:1 Porsche to Pug ratio – seriously, there are 3 of each strewn about this amazing bachelor pad. For the record, Bertrand does have a girlfriend and we're guessing this glorious man palace didn't hurt in cementing the relationship.

Porsche 911 Carrera S – Hollywood Blvd., LA
April 29th, 2010 by
This 993-series Carrera S (1997 – 1998) looks good behind bars on Hollywood boulevard. With its rear drive set up and naturally aspirated engine, the Carrera S is essentially a standard Carrera save for slightly increased power, a lowered suspension and that gloriously wide booty in the rear (the wider rear fenders were compensated with wheel spacers). All the Turbo look for a lot less coin. Seen here underneath a beautiful LA sunset, the last of the air cooled 911s looks prime for a weekend jaunt down Mulholland.

Fine Lines: Porsche 959 | Rimowa classic luggage
April 22nd, 2010 by
The Germans have a way with aluminum. Sometimes it is engineered to cradle passengers at neck snapping speeds down the autobahn, and other times to carry passenger belongings through airport security check points at mind numbingly slow speeds. The Porsche 959 was produced from 1986-1989 and, at the time, was largely regarded to be the world's most technologically advanced road-going sports car. No style or swagger was sacrificed in achieving such a title. For over 100 years Rimowa has been making discerning travelers look cool in airport terminals all over the world. Their slogan, "Handwerk meets Hightech" (Handcraft Meets High tech), can just as easily be carved under the hood of the 959.
Both products are the result of one mission statement: Expert craftsmanship, high quality materials, precision manufacturing and unwavering vision. These timeless and innovative products have secured their positions in the world of iconic designs.

Lost Cause – Lincoln Blvd, Venice CA
March 25th, 2010 by
So my girlfriend sees this rust bucket Porsche in a gravel parking lot on her way down Lincoln one day. She tells me about it, and instantly I'm imagining a long hood version of our buddy Mike Burroughs' mean, rusty E28. I call Jim Bauer and, within milliseconds, he's ready to make an offer. He's got visions of a non-operating early body (69-73) to restore, or at least scrap body panels from. Both of our dreams were smashed upon arrival at the gravel lot. No motor, hence the SUV ride height. The interior looks like a mini garbage dump. And there's just enough body damage and terminal rust on each panel to make it not worth the effort. But somehow, especially sitting in between a Jeep Cherokee and Honda Fit, this Porsche is still a gorgeous sight.

Pictured: BMX rider/artist Jim Bauer and his 1981 Porsche 911 SC
Jim Bauer is no stranger to Q&A, but his interviews are usually about a crazy BMX gap, or maybe his custom designed T shirts, or even his artistic approach to wedding planning . When it comes to cars, I like Jim's perspective because he's not a typical "car guy". He's the guy with a million other talents who also happens to have great taste in cars. Like the rest of Jim's endeavors, his 1981 Porsche 911 SC has achieved what many of us might call perfection.

Porsche 959 – Hopkins Ave, Aspen (CO)
February 23rd, 2010 by
One of our loyal readers spotted this 197 MPH supercar from Stuttgart rolling down the 300 Block of Hopkins Ave in downtown Aspen. A fitting venue for such a rare, valuable piece of equipment, the 959 (1987-1989) remains one of the rarest, most advanced, ferociously fast supercars ever made. Its performance credentials, like a 3.7 second dash to 60 mph, remain disgustingly impressive to this day. This one looks to be pretty legit from where we sit, but please weigh in with replica car theories below.
Great find Jim!
Porsche Carrera – Oakwood Ave, Venice, CA
February 11th, 2010 by
The type 964 Carrera ('89-'94) could be the perfect 911. The narrowness, simplicity and rawness of the longhoods and Impact Bumpers, but with just enough refinement to compete with the 993 and 996. It could also be the perfect car for this parking space.

I need your help people...
I was driving to work today, stopped at a light when I saw & heard sparks from the
driver's side area under the dash.
There was a small burst of fire, smoke, and the check engine came on.
I got out & looked under the dash, no visible damage; the smoke came from the area where the wires are under the steering column.
It's been raining since yesterday here in NYC, I'm always careful when driving through water. I had my headlights & radio on when this happened. Nothing shut off & the engine
was still running.
My mod list shows all electrical components installed.
The only aftermarket item under the steering column is the manual switch for the alarm.
I have noticed that condensation is appearing in my driver side headlight.
I have my people checking my car at home now while I am at work.
Any help is appreciated

How will I know it is my cat's time to leave me?
My Spookie will be 21 in December. He is my and Baby Blue's best buddy. Spookie is not well, but not in pain either.
How can I made sure that the "final decision" is not premature? How will I know for SURE that I have done enough?
Just thinking about this gets me so upset.

There is no easy time. I do believe we know, but we try to avoid it or push it away to keep our babies as long as possible. I lost my Mama cat in August. I believe she had liver cancer. She was only 9 years old. She was not eating and going downhill fast. I had made the decision to let her go to the bridge, but she died early that morning in my arms. All I can say is that you don't want to see this. The fear, the pain she must've been feeling. Took her over 10 minutes to die, and I never, ever want to see that again. I'd rather she'd gone peacefully, asleep and not knowing. Please, don't wait too long. Let your baby go in peace. I know it's hard, but it's the right thing to do.

Man those are looking Great!! Can't wait to see them polished up!
Man those are looking Great!! Can't wait to see them polished up!
Here's a sneak preview. It's a rough cast with many blemishes, but I used it just to see how it'd polish. Then I scuffed it up a bit to see how it stood up to scratching. It was a little soft, so I'll need to increase the catalyst a bit next time. The cold-cast is going to take a bit more work and a lot more attention than gel-coat.
The first pic is with flash. Tomorrow I'll take an outside pic in the sun.
Also, pics of something I made for fun. It's a Hyper-firm missile made of "nerf" foam like material. It can be bent and then returns to its original shape. My son and I were throwing it around earlier today in the house and when it hit a window, it bounced right off.

The ultimate troop-able gauntlet rocket, takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'!
Hey you could also make those and sell them off as chew toys for dogs!
These are turning out marvelous!
Cold-cast pic in clouded sunlight. Best I'll be able to do today.
This morning I went out and bought a small portable heater. And today I'll build a "hot box" for it that'll fit the gauntlet shell molds so I can speed up the cold cast's curing process.
Last edited by Cruzer; Dec 23, 2007 at 1:06 PM.
Absolutely beautiful my friend, but I still think that you're pure evil.
Those look great!
L, looking good! That nerf rocket is a cool idea. Keep up the awesome work. Merry X-mas to ya too!
Be cool if you could launch the nerf rocket from the gauntlet :P
Kidding, but that would still be rather funny to see hehe.
Thanks guys.
I got the hot-box built today, and the first pair of cc shells are baking.
Very cool, I mean hot!
this thread is driving me crazy! (in a good way)
Dude! your a freakin engineer!!!
Nice stuff man.
We have so many talented people here.
You warmer climate guys have it rough. Great idea though Cruz. I can get my best castings done at this time of the year even if it's zero out thanks to my coal stove being fired up for the next 3 months. I've got something similar catching the heat off the side of my stove that I'm putting to use in heat curing my goods.
It's about 50 degrees out right now and I'm freezing my butt off.
Yeah? It is 29 degrees here...with windchill feels like 0 degrees!
very very nice!!!!
For me,make them "well done"!!!!
Yeah, we're waking up to mid-30s degree weather around here, but it's 50-60s during the day...so not exactly resin curing weather!
Do we have a price on these yet? If we are pretty sure that a set of CC's on going to be the guesstimate price, Sweet!
Genious idea Cruzer on the "hot-box"!!! I cant wait for a set of these CC gauntlets. Keep up the amazing work!!!
I would like a set if possible
Well poop,now i want to go back to building Jango again.
Nice work Cruzer
I'm gonna say ....put me on the list for set of cold cast.

Chemical Measures of Fish Oil Quality: Oxidation Products and Sensory Correlation
Sullivan Ritter, Jenna
MetadataShow full item record
Although quality of commercial fish oil is of the upmost importance to both suppliers and consumers, it can be difficult to maintain due to rapid lipid oxidation attributable to the high levels of EPA and DHA. Fish oil quality can be assessed in a number of ways; this paper focuses on ethyl ester (EE) content and oxidation products. Fish oil supplements are sold as both triacylglycerols (TAG) and EE. TAG products are more resistant to oxidation, have better bioavailability and are generally considered to be of higher quality. Here, a method is described to quantify EE in fish oil using solid phase microextraction (SPME) headspace analysis and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS). A related aspect of quality is state of oxidation and although the causes of oxidation in fish oil are well known, there is little research on the kinetics of the oxidation process. The work presented here monitors hydroperoxides to model the kinetics of oxidation in two commercially available fish oil supplements by fitting the data to the Arrhenius model. It was determined that the same mechanisms of oxidation hold at temperatures ? 40 °C and thus, this temperature was used in the final stages of this work where accelerated stability testing of fish oil was conducted. Currently, taste panels are the only reliable method to assess the sensory properties of fish oil, but these are costly and subjective. Described here is an alternative method using SPME-GCMS to monitor volatile oxidation products. Two different statistical methods were used to identify oxidative volatiles that correlate with sensory characteristics of fish oil. First, stepwise discriminant function analysis (DFA) was used to identify volatiles that could be used to classify oil as acceptable or unacceptable based on sensory analysis. Principal component analysis (PCA) and linear regression were then applied with greater success. Both techniques identified similar oxidative volatiles as being important to sensory properties. It is anticipated that these methods could be adopted by fish oil manufacturers as measures of quality.

After supporting the album with ample tour dates, the songwriter reprised his relationship with Marc Ford, who produced 2009's Roadhouse Sun. Later that year, he joined another music veteran -- producer/songwriter T-Bone Burnett -- in contributing music to the film Crazy Heart. Revolving around the the attempted comeback of a down-and-out country singer, Crazy Heart became one of the year's highest-praised films and won a Golden Globe and an Oscar for "The Weary Kind," one of Bingham's original compositions written with T-Bone Burnett, the soundtrack's musical director and producer. Bingham and his band the Dead Horses followed it with the album Junky Star in September of 2010, produced by Burnett. Bingham left Lost Highway after three albums and released 2012's Tomorrowland, recorded in Malibu, CA and co-produced by Bingham and Justin Stanley, on Bingham's own newly created Axster Bingham Records imprint. ~ Andrew Leahey

Hoods with helmets?
Is there any need for a hood if I have a helmet and neck gaiter/facemask? I see some people wearing hoods over helmets and I don't understand why, or even how (since all 3 of my hoods don't even fit over my helmet).
Ride a chair when the temp is below -10C/14F with a wind, then you'll understand. That wind has a way of finding every exposed area around your neck and face so throwing the hood over the helmet (most jackets have helmet compatible hoods nowadays) blocks it out.
I've never pulled a hood over my helmet. I think it's just personal preference.
Only when its cold and windy as fuck...wind chill is one of our worst enemies. This is also when having a baggier jacket comes in handy because if not you might have issues fitting your hood over the helmet.
I only use it on the lift though. Ive never really liked riding with the hood on, screws with my periph's.
It may only be on for 10 minutes total per day, but definitely worth it for those ten minutes.
If it's snowing hard hail-like chunks that are hurting my face while riding at speed, I put my hood over my helmet and the jacket will cover my cheeks without zipping up 100% of the the way to the top (which would cover my mouth).
Sometimes I also put it up on lifts if it's ridiculously cold with crazy winds.
Both situations are pretty rare, but it does happen.
Only use the hood on the lift.
On cold and windy days I ride with a balaclava underneath my helmet to avoid any exposed spots.

My computer is connected to our wireless router via an ethernet cable because the signal is too weak where my pc is.
But I've got an iPod and more importantly, just got myself a Sony Xperia S which I want to have connected to the internet/wifi while I'm at home.
I've bought a TP-Link PCIe wifi card from Aria so my PC now has wired and wireless capability, but I can't get it to share the wired internet connection through the wifi?

More juicy details have come our way regarding Sony's new PSP2, the current rumours doing the rounds are that the new handheld with come with OLED screen and 3G network connectivity.
The data connection will mean that multiplayer games can be played from afar, as well as giving the PSP2 the potential to download videos, films and games wirelessly.
That's not all – the display is said to be an OLED touchscreen affair, which will mean crisp, delicious graphics and games which can be played without the keypads.
Sony's plans for the PSP are still a bit of a mosaik, they are still planning a phone version, which is going to run Android and allow you to make calls, but the PSP2 won't allow you to dial out.
And don't forget they launched a revised version of the PSP a while ago, called Go, it's a physical media free and has struggled to take a foot-hold in the market – so much so you got 10 free games when you bought it to sweeten the deal.
There are 3 days to go before the big unveil, but even if half the rumours are true the PSP2 will definetley be worth a look and will surely give Nintendo's soon to be launched 3DS a run for its money.

Winter 2012 Newsletter
Scientists Develop Plan for Future Research
Rutgers University was the site of the third annual meeting of the Hybrid Hazelnut Consortium, a group of leading hazelnut researchers involved in a combined effort that will expedite development of disease-resistant, climatically adaptable hazelnut cultivars.
Scientists from Rutgers, Oregon State University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Arbor Day Foundation met to assess their progress and to develop a road map for continued research as they prepare to apply for further funding.
The partners have made significant advances in the past two years toward their goal of creating hybrid hazelnuts that would be commercially viable throughout much of North America, including sequencing the genome of the disease that kills hazelnut plants, and developing a test that significantly reduces the time it takes to determine whether a plant is resistant.
Rutgers Scientists Detail Sequencing of the Anisogramma anomala Genome
Anisogramma anomala is the filamentous fungus that causes eastern filbert blight (EFB), the disease that is limiting the production of hazelnuts in most parts of the country. At the annual meeting, Rutgers' Dr. Brad Hillman and Dr. Guohong Cai presented an in-depth look at their work on sequencing the genome of A. anomala and its value to the Consortium's work to create disease-resistant hazelnuts.
EFB presents as cankers on hazelnut branches. It is first visible in the spring and is mature by fall, but the infection process is complex and can take up to 18 months between initial infection and symptoms. Severe cankering is followed by branch dieback and death of most European hazelnut plants.
A. anomala is a particularly difficult fungus to work with because it doesn't grow well outside of infected plants. Dr. Cai isolated fungus DNA from a two-month-old sample and analyzed it using an Illumina sequencer. The massive amount of sequence data was assembled using a short-read assembly method called SOAPdenovo, and the assembled sequence was analyzed to develop simple sequence repeat (SSR, also called microsatellite) gene markers for the fungus. The genome of A. anomala was found to be surprisingly large, and 85% of it was
repetitive DNA typical of transposable genetic elements.
Next Steps
Drs. Hillman and Cai will sequence the A. anomala genome in greater depth to obtain a better genome assembly as a platform for future work. They will also complete
draft sequences of additional strains of A. anomala from different populations around the country and will combine this information with experimental screening of microsatellite loci.
Why Sequencing is Important
Understanding the genetic sequence of A. anomala will allow Consortium scientists to determine which plants contain useful genetic resistance, whether various fungal strains affect plants differently, and whether environment may play a part in resistance and/or disease progression. This will help determine which parent plants the Consortium should use to breed, how likely EFB is to change over time, and how that would affect host resistance.
The fact that A. anomala is an unusual, nearly endophytic, exclusively teleomorphic (sexual) ascomycete pathogen of a woody host makes the large and complex genome of this fungus an interesting subject of study in its own right.

"Cops wanna knock me, D.A. wanna box me in. But somehow, I beat them charges like Rocky." - Jay-Z
The Lab Results Are In - You're Dumb
My client is a college kid. White, from the suburbs, wealthy family, good college. He and his friends get stopped for open containers. Officer asks for IDs so he can write the kids tickets. My client gives the officer his fake ID. Thereby proving that you can send a kid to college, but you can't make him smart.
(The kid's explanation? He said that he thought he couldn't get in trouble "just" for having an open container since it was in a paper bag! So, therefore, he must be in trouble for underage drinking, so showing the fake ID would get him out of trouble. Oh, of course.)
I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, but this kid's ID was blatantly fake. I mean, it was something you could buy at a flea market that says "State College - Not a Valid ID" across the top. I mean, in a way, I guess it's better than if he went to DMV and got a real fake license.
Anyway, the officer arrests the kid for presenting a fake ID. The pre-arrest pat down search reveals a big bag of weed in kid's pocket. Oops.
So, I tell the kid that it doesn't look great. The DA's office is really cracking down on fake IDs, under the assumption that every fake ID is obtained to help sneak a terrorist into the country. Kid tells me to see what I can do - he's in a good college, his parents have money and can pay any fine, blah blah blah.
"Oh, and one more thing," he says, "my father's out in the audience. Can you let him know what's going on?"
This is one part of the job I hate. No, I don't really want to tell your father what you got arrested for so that he can tell me that his kid is perfect and it must've been a mistake. Although I guess it's not as bad as when a client asks me to call his girlfriend and tell her that he got arrested for picking up a hooker, and ask her to come post his bail.
Anyway, I ask the kid, "Does your father know what you were arrested for?"
And he says, "Yeah, well, he does... but don't mention the weed. He doesn't know that part."
I tell the kid, "Look, you'll be getting out of here soon. I'll tell your father that I talked to you, that you're ok, and that you'll be getting out soon. Anything else, I'll leave up to you."
Finally, kid's case gets called, and he's brought out from the jail cell in the back of the courtroom. The court officer reads the charges. There's a possibility that Daddy Warbucks in the audience doesn't hear the reading of the charges - the court officer reads quickly and the courtroom acoustics are terrible.
For all drug cases, the D.A. needs to supply the court with a lab report (showing that the drugs are actually drugs.) The D.A. says, among other things, "For the record, I'm filing a lab report with the court." Then the D.A. offers a truly spectacular offer - 2 days community service, no criminal record.
I quickly consult with client, and tell him he should jump on the offer. I don't think it's likely to be offered again, given the current crackdown on fake IDs. He agrees and accepts the offer. He's released and given instructions for the community service.
I leave the courtroom and go to another courtroom to do other cases. A little while later, I notice the father sitting in the courtroom, motioning that he wants to speak to me.
I go out into the hallway to talk to him. I tell him that his son will have to do 2 days community service and that he won't get a criminal record. I tell him that I think it's a great offer. Father says, "But I wanted to know about the lab. They said something about a lab."
Hmmm... how do I respond to this? Best to punt, I decide. "Well, maybe you could talk to your son about that."
And he tells me, "I did. I asked him about it and he said they gave him a blood test when he was arrested last night and he said that must've been the lab results. And I really want to protest this. I don't think they should be doing blood tests on people just because they had a fake ID! Who gives them the right? And what exactly are they going to do with those blood test results? His medical history is just out there for anyone to see? His DNA is going to go into a computer or something? They can just use it to plant his DNA at any crime scene?!?" This father continues shouting at me in the hallway of the courthouse about this insane idea that his son had been blood tested.
All I could think is "That little liar!"
Honestly, how do I get out of this one? So, finally, after I let him yell at me for way too long, I just said, "Sir, there was no blood test. You need to talk to your son." And I walked away.
Aarggh. That's why I hate representing the middle- and upper-class white kids from the suburbs. They're nothing but a pain.
In the light of day, it's kind of funny though. Of all the things he could come up with on the spot, this dumb kid came up with "They blood tested me at the police station." How bizarre!

Just legalize weed and this all goes away.ReplyDelete
Why, the kid would've been less stupid if he wasn't stoned? Then maybe he wouldn't have given his fake ID to the police.ReplyDelete
Middle and upper-class kids? How in the world do they get a PD for these kind of low-grade misdemeanors? Or is your office tasked with blanket representation of these cases unless retained counsel shows up?ReplyDelete
Personally, I would have cut dad off the same way you did, but a lot earlier - like the second he raised his voice. I suspect Junior may just be starting his visits to the criminal courts if he doesn't get his head in order.
Yeah, we stay on a case until retained counsel shows up. Which sometimes means weeks and weeks of standing on a case while the judge says to our client "I told you to hire an attorney!" and our client makes some lame excuse that they can't afford it even though they make more money that the judge.ReplyDelete
As to the dad, I would've cut him off sooner (and I usually do cut off yellers sooner), but I just thought it was funny to hear everything he had to say. I just stood there smiling, trying not to laugh. Then, finally, the joke was on him.
Sounds like a drag. My county uses appointed counsel from a list of local attorneys willing to work for about $70/hr. If the judge (actually, the court administrator) determines you don't qualify, you don't get representation until you retain someone. No adjournments, no stays. . . .Really focuses the mind wonderfully. Of course, every now and then you get one who just won't. Then the fun really begins.ReplyDelete
What's even more fun is when a qualified indigent gets one of the top criminal defense attorenys in the area as appointed counsel and then gets the family to pool their resources to hire some out of town hack with a big ad in the yellow pages.
As to how middle class kids get court appointed counsel - I've seen more than one parent refuse to pay for their 18 year old kid to have a lawyer.ReplyDelete

SALEMBURG, N.C. - Soldiers conduct training annually to stay efficient at their response posture and advising of other first responders, but were also evaluated by the U.S. Army North (Fifth Army), a Civil Support Readiness Group. The evaluation and training ensures that service members further develop, organize and integrate Department of Defense Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Enhanced conventional weapons (CBRNE) response capabilities and operations while working with our civilian first response counterparts.
"Each team is designed to go and identify Weapons of Mass Destruction and we train, evaluate, and certify them on an 18 month basis" said Tim Meadors, Survey Analyst Army North Southeast Division, Civil Support Readiness Group East.
The CST mission is to assess a suspected Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) attack, offer advice to civilian responders on appropriate actions, and facilitate the arrival of additional state and Federal military forces.
With their capabilities these units become a valuable and unique military asset. They can deploy rapidly to a suspected or actual terrorist attack and conduct special reconnaissance to determine the effects of the attack. The 42nd CST provides situational awareness to the military chain of command while providing consultation to local authorities on managing the effects of a potential attack to minimize the impact on the civilian population.
The team conducted a lane training exercise with a simulated scenario of a disgruntled employee working for the Sampson County sheriff's department. In the scenario the employee, he retaliated against the Sheriff's office to gain revenge for his brother who was arrested after a drug raid. The employee wasn't made aware of the arrest and felt betrayed by the sheriff's office. He saw an opportunity to get back at the officers, so he planted a small explosive device containing radiation also known as a "dirty bomb" inside a building where the personnel trained.
Officers were aware of the explosive device but assumed that it was part of the training simulation. Before training was completed officers began feeling nauseated, vomiting, coughing, and developed skin irritations. After instructors discovered a "white powdery unknown substance," they notified the proper channels to have the 42nd CST inspect and conduct their evaluation of the scene.
"They were training in the area and then were called to a 'white powder' incident," said Meadors "now they are being evaluated on how they respond."
Analysts went to the suspected building and performed procedures like a crime scene investigation unit, analyzing all clues and building a theory on what happened and how the evidence will lead them to solving what happened and better advise first responders on what their next steps should be.
According to Capt. Danny Fitzpatrick, "Our CST team is very methodical, everybody knew exactly what to do this morning and people have gotten some really great training."
This team will go through a base line 12 week long Civil Support Skills Course before arriving at the unit. Once assigned to their unit, members attend numerous other courses to enhance their knowledge on techniques, procedures, and methods used to detect unknown chemicals at an investigative site.
"This job is physically demanding, just being inside that suit is pretty hard," said Robert Delgado, radiation survey analyst, 42nd CST. "You have to be physically and mentally fit especially the mental part."
Service members also encountered live situations that can arise during their investigation. One of the team members simulated having a sudden case of adenitis forcing personnel to safely transport and decontaminate him before seeking medical attention.
"Actually coming here and having evaluators basically see every move that we make is gratifying because they will tell us what we're doing wrong."
This scenario like many others are based on a real life situation, with this in mind, CST members treat the exercise like a real event.
"It feels good down deep inside, to know that if something were to happen, that we are here and we do exist and we can take care of it" Delgado replied.
Fitzpatrick, North Carolina National Guard, deputy joint training and exercises officer (J7), is also a key player in the operational portion of the training being conducted.
"From a J7 stand point we provide them with a facility where they can set up their footprint, and a scenario that can happen in the real world is what we try to gear the training toward," Fitzpatrick replied.
Once the training exercise is complete the Fifth Army personnel give the unit commander a score on how they performed during the training exercise portion of their validation process. This better equips the commander with what types of training to focus on when preparing their yearly training schedule.
This training keeps the North Carolina National Guard ready, reliable, responsive, and reliant but also validates the necessity of all National Guard states across the country.

Wow. One Direction fans may want to settle down a little. Watch as Harry gets hit in the crotch with a shoe in concert. It's not the first shoe. It's the second one that hits him right in the nuts and berries. We wonder if Taylor Swift was at the show.

I felt well taken care of from the moment I inquired about the trip through Natalie Crow at GeoEx, to the people she set up to greet us in mainland Ecuador and the Galápagos."
-Lisa H.
I am perpetually searching for interesting and dramatic wildlife. Having lived and traveled throughout sub-Saharan Africa, my family and I are attracted to exotic and unique destinations. Now as a resident of California, I have a renewed interest in exploring the Americas. It wasn't long before the allure of the Galápagos Islands took hold. The hardest decision being not where to go but whom to go with.
My job takes me on the road for at least two months out of the year, which makes booking travel a daunting task. While wading through the plethora of travel company options for the Galápagos, GeoEx rose to the top. My list of requirements was rigid. I wanted a comfortable boat, good representation of the islands, and naturalists who are the best in the business.
The ship lived up to my expectations and more. It was the perfect combination of intimate yet spacious, small enough to not get lost in a sea of passengers, but large enough to have space to move about very comfortably. The naturalists were more than guides, they shared with us in-depth information about the natural history of the Galápagos and made every request a reality. They were professional, thorough, and passionate about protecting the islands and its wildlife. The ship amenities were impressive with no detail spared. More like a floating five-star hotel, every day delivered sumptuous meals, new islands to explore, and inspiring evening lectures to whet our appetite for knowledge about the unique landscape and wildlife.
Whether swimming with curious sea lions, being nose to beak with a pelican, or waking up to a pod of dolphins swimming alongside our boat in the morning light, this trip exceeded our expectation by leaps and bounds. I felt well taken care of from the moment I inquired about the trip through Natalie Crow at GeoEx, to the people she set up to greet us in the mainland of Ecuador and the Galápagos. Thank you for making this truly a trip of a lifetime!

40 gallon planted breeder build
2 Attachment(s)
Well I have always loved the dimensions of a 40 gallon breeder, but it is extremely hard to find a quality stand for those dimensions. (Mostly due to the fact that usually they are put on cheap stands that hold multiple tanks in fish rooms). Well, I have freed up some space in a spare bedroom and have decided to build my own quality stand for the 40 breeder I picked up.
I don't know what I am going to stock it with yet, but it will be a low light planted tank.
The best part is that it is built with scrap wood and didn't cost a dime!
2 Attachment(s)
I plan on lighting the tank with decorative pendent lighting hanging off a floating shelf. I am also going to have it back lit with a small led.
I used a silver metallic paint on this stand to match the gray monotone theme of the room.
8 Attachment(s)
The door is made of aluminum surrounded by pine boards and rests on magnets instead of hinges.
2 Attachment(s)
Finished stand:
6 Attachment(s)
The back of the tank is back lit with a small RGB LED light strip. The back of the tank was frosted to let the LED shine through. Since I am not going to use a canopy and this is not a rimless tank, I sanded down the black rim and paint it a metallic silver to match the stand.
5 Attachment(s)
Here is the tank and stand put together with the LED in back. Also I have attached a link for a short video of the back lighting. You can change the color of the back light and choose if you want it to stay one color, pulse different colors, or fade in and out. I am still working on the pendant lighting for the tank. Overall I am please with how it turned out. Any constructive criticism is welcome!
Dude....this is going to be sick. Love what you did with the background and scape! Low light all the way. I really want a 40B.
That background is awesome! Did you do it yourself? Can't wait for more!
Wow, that background is a great idea. You know, maybe program some reds/orange/yellows in there for a sunrise/sunset effect. I will experiment with this on my next tank. The youtube link doesn't work either.

Report highlights illustrate the importance of clinical trials for new medicines to treat chronic disease:
- More than 110,000 new cancer cases will be diagnosed this year in the state and 37,000 Texans will die of the disease, according to the American Cancer Society. Biopharmaceutical companies and their local research collaborators, including the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at the University of Texas and the Texas Tech University Health Science Center, are currently conducting more than 600 trials of new cancer medicines that are recruiting patients.
- Nearly 10 percent of the state's adults have been diagnosed with diabetes, which, in 2007, killed 5,105 diabetics in the Lone Star State. Currently, 92 clinical trials for diabetes are recruiting patients in Texas.
- More than 189,000 state patients died of heart disease in 2009 and 46,000 from fatal strokes. 49 heart disease and 15 stroke clinical trials are seeking Texas patients.
- About 833,000 Texas adults live with serious mental illness and about 288,000 children have significant mental health conditions, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. 96 clinical trials of new mental illness medicines are seeking patient participants in the Lone Star State.
- The state's asthma toll is more than one million adults and nearly 600,000 children. 29 clinical trials of new asthma treatments are active and recruiting patients at institutions, such as Alamo Clinical Research in Austin.

these are great. i love downloaded the scripts wirelessly and being able to execute and debug functions in the portal app. Worst thing about them so far is their lack of arrays - period. you have to use strings and recreate them on the fly but can quickly run out of 'buffer' space.
No public wish lists :(

Rabbit - Poem by Kevin Patrick
Last night I saw one parked on the speck of turf
On the edge of the lane and arrow-wood undergrowth
Its fat ears shot out, hoisted and dangling
Radar intuition like a pair of wizard cap ice-cream cones
And it stood in my eye line
for a sketch of a minute
As if caught in the middle
of political defection
Frozen in silence
Like an embarrassed exhibit
Piercing thick lenses
Of two ebony suns
Perched on the cloak
Of a strawberry face
Captured In the shape
of a fishhook heart
Then suddenly he burst
Into a matchstick blur
Of hightailing footprints
In hazelnut snow
That sparkled in the jet lash
Of Cotton ball tail
That tickled and swindled
Into a majestic afterglow
Passing as a memory
Of this gallant rouge
Only shelter, food and protection are his born plight
How wise of him too stay out of Maslow's cruel brew
Cute as a gemstone cut out of nature's sweet cloth
While I stand contemplating how he'd make a fine stew

...........enjoyed this wonderful poem....you know only days ago, maybe a week or so, there was a small bunny hopping across a parking lot, as fast as he could go....this is the second time I saw him all alone.....I suppose he left home early to conquer the world....loved reading this one and loved the theme of this poem also...

A beautiful snapshot of a rabbit, 'frozen in silence', as if ' caught in the middle of political defection'. Nice depiction.
I am afraid, the last line is rather too harsh, and out of place. (Report) Reply
Diane Hine (6/15/2014 3:46:00 AM)
Spot on! and we might deduce from the last line that your hierarchy of needs are not so different from the rabbit's after all. (Report) Reply

Happy Holidays everyone.
For the past month there's been a local restaurant advertising on the radio and they've been using "Trotting" by Roger Roger for their background music. After Christmas I don't imagine they'll be using that tune anymore. I'm glad I have it on disc! (it's a nice song).

I'm guessing that most of you saw the story yesterday about Jack Osbourne and the mugger. If you didn't, it goes like this. Jack saw a man grabbing a woman's purse off her arm. In addition to Jack, four other people went after the thief and tackled him to the ground where they held him until the cops came.
Now, as each blog and newspaper printed the story, it became more and more exaggerated to the point where it will shortly be that Jack a suicide bomber, raced over, risking his life and in the process saving the city of London or something.
The latest version from News Of The World calls Jack a "daredevil" "hero." Jack, "chased" "wrestled" and "pinned" the thief. Apparently Jack also has world record speed and Jack ran after the mugger like a man possessed. In this latest retelling of the story Jack did all the dangerous stuff himself and only after the thief was down and pinned was anyone brave enough to come help him. While that is really nice and they should probably get the International Kneepads Award, it completely contradicts the official police version of events. In fact, it was actually a London ambulance driver who first tackled the thief to the ground, but then of course if someone admitted that, then Jack's speed would not be world record speed, would not be quite the hero or whatever else.

I think the time has come for us to learn the truth. No more comments like," a friend said Jennifer Aniston has a broken heart or she thinks Angelina Jolie is a witch." I think Ms. Aniston herself or her publicist should e-mail me and let me know exactly what is what so we can stop talking about what she may or may not be feeling or thinking or what the timeline was when Angelina "loved going to work."
See, when I hear the truth, I can report the truth. So, I can tell you for a fact that Britney Spears did NOT cheat on K-Fed with "piano around neck guy aka PANG" or JR Rotten or whatever his name is. Britney knew JR, but nothing happened until AFTER the infamous text. It is also my understanding that Britney got a little drunk the other night when she was bumping and grinding with JR and that will not happen again. (not the drinking part, but the bumping and grinding with JR) Speaking of the piano around the neck guy, it looks like the 17 year old was not enough for the week so he decided to take a shot at Bai Ling. After I was so complimentary to Bai about her diversity award she went and did this.
In the relationships that are either plain disturbing or just will not last department. On one side we have Hilary Swank dating her agent. (I smell a lawsuit down the road and definitely a switch in agents.) The other side brings us Sharon Stone and Christian Slater. The latter coupling is specifically why the terms OMG and WTF? were invented. I really hope Sharon enjoys strip clubs and that Christian enjoys writing songs and attending charity events.
Random hypothetical thought – "If you get me pregnant again or at least let me tell the world how much I love my baby and how I want another one, I will let you go live with your male ex-lover for a few weeks. I will keep the focus on me while you go do your tranny thing."

Commuting by bicycle changed my life. No joke. It was the summer of 2000 and I was bored and disenchanted with my second job in as many years—so much so that I was going out to movies in the middle of the day and taking long naps in riverside parks instead of atrophying at my desk. As you can imagine, showing up for work on time also became a low priority. So one day, instead of taking the subway from my apartment in Brooklyn to my job in Manhattan, I climbed on a Diamondback hybrid bike that I had gotten from a pawnshop on the advice of a friend and rode it to work.
As it happened, I got there on time anyway. Even better, I felt good when I got there. Instead of spending some of the earliest parts of my day crammed into a poorly ventilated steel can with a bunch of other people who didn't want to be there, or where they were going, I was riding across the Brooklyn Bridge on an elevated bike path, the whole of lower Manhattan spread out in front of me. Talk about a change in perspective.
So I stopped riding the subway and my relationship to the place where I lived changed. I stopped participating in my transportation passively and instead became my own motive power. I got healthier and happier. Other changes started to flow from that one simple choice to get off my seat and onto my bike. Eventually, my changed attitude sent me on a trip halfway around the world that I never really came back from—but that's a whole other story and not too important to the moral of this one.
If you're wondering what that is, and that would be a fair question three paragraphs in, the moral of the story is that getting in the habit of pedaling from place to place can generate a lot more benefits than you might imagine. But if you're nervous about getting into traffic, you'll never make it as a bike commuter. That's why Missoula's Bicycling Ambassadors are inviting participants ages 18 and older to go on free rides around town designed to build your confidence. Two of these Bike Skill Rides take place this week: one on Saturday, Aug. 19, that departs from the Bicycle Hangar, 1801 Brooks St., at 9:30 AM and a second on Tuesday, Aug. 22, that takes off from the Bike Doctor, 1101 Toole Ave., at noon. Call 552-6352 to let them know you'll be coming.
Get up to Glacier for three days of camping and climbing with the Rocky Mountaineers, who plan to camp at Two Medicine and take a variety of hikes in the area from Friday, Aug. 18, to Sunday, Aug. 20. Visit rockymountaineers.com to see the whole itinerary and find out how to let them know you want to go. Alternately, just call 327-0566.
If something is pulling you west instead of south then take advantage of the opportunity to join the Great Burn Study Group, which heads to Sheep Mountain in Idaho from Friday, Aug. 18, through Sunday, Aug. 20.
Day-trippers will be glad to hear the New Rocky Mountaineers are planning a 10-mile loop up and back on a rock route (as opposed to the couloirs they often use) up Kakashe Mountain in the Missions near St. Ignatius on Saturday, Aug. 19. Call 549-4769 to rock out with them.
Looking to have some fun and induce an elevated heart rate while mixing up your methods of exercise? If you swim 300 yards, bike 13.3 miles and run another 3.3 miles during the Seeley Lake Challenge triathlon, which begins Saturday, Aug. 19, at 9 PM, at Riverpoint Campground in Seeley Lake, you'll likely have plenty of fun and aerobic exercise both, and do so multimodally. You will also have contributed to the Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, the charity that benefits from the triathlon thanks to Holly Friede, who's putting on the event for her senior project. To join the race or just give Holly an attagirl, call 677-2880.
While we're on the subject of public input, the rangers down in the Darby district of the Bitterroot National Forest are up to some management activities in the Trapper-Bunkhouse Project area, about 35,000 acres so designated for the drainages that bound it. If you're curious about what's being proposed, you can head down for a 4 to 7 PM field trip on Wednesday, Aug. 23, when specialists and researchers will be on hand to discuss the plans. Call 777-7415 or 821-4244 by Monday, Aug. 21, to register for the field trip, which is free and includes transportation as well as water.
Finally, there are a couple of picnics that might be of interest to the Mountain High readership. The WildWest Institute—now there's some folks sure to be along for the Bitterroot National Forest field trip—holds its annual summer picnic at Kiwanis Park from 4 to 9 PM on Sunday, Aug. 20; bring some food and drink as the event is free. Also, don't forget to stop by the Missoulian Angler, 401 S. Orange St., for the barbecue at 6:30 PM on Saturday, Aug. 19, that caps off their Poverello Fishing Fundraiser; bring some cash to donate for that one.
Or have your own barbecue. 'Tis the season, after all.

Hangzhou's best nightlife
Voted the happiest city in China by Oriental Outlook Magazine several years running, Hangzhou is China's leisure capital.
Hangzhou nightlife is both diverse and centralized, so it's easy to bar hop until you find the perfect spot for you.
Dive joint: Maya Bar 玛雅酒吧
Tired of dice games, working girls, bad music and poorly stocked bars? At Maya Bar, you'll find reasonably priced drinks being downed by locals and out-of-towners.
It's never too loud, so this is good place to hang out and talk.
The Mexican bar food is decent, there's an outdoor patio seating and live sports are often showing on the TVs.

Hangzhou's dedicated Latin dance club, Night & Day cranks out popular Latin tunes for salsa and merengue lovers, both pro and pathetic.

Surprisingly delicious Western fare includes genuinely good steaks.

Pool hall/Music venue: 9 Club 酒球会
Hangzhou's classiest place to hit billiard and snooker tables, this club in the western end of the city regularly hosts billiards competitions.
But the 9 Club is a wicked combination shot itself, with a good sound system and convivial pub hosting top-caliber live concerts by the likes of Hanggai, Hedgehog and other acts from in and outside China.

Karaoke: Party World 钱柜
No Chinese nightlife listing would be complete without a place to indulge in the national nocturnal pastime: karaoke at KTV.
The Taiwan-based KTV brand has branches in most major cities across China, but Hangzhou's lakeside branch can't be beat for sheer size, opulence, up-to-date, international song selection (nine languages), and full buffet bar.
Prices are reasonable. Reserve tables early on weekends.

Dance club: Elements
Hangzhou's dance-club scene peaked in 2006 and 2007, when global giants graced West Lake's shores.
Since then, the only thing reliably electro-worthy have been the Hangzhou-based Elements dance parties, replete with fire dancers and neon, flame-throwing robots.
Here's the catch -- the Elements "club" constantly changes locales. It's intended for only the most dedicated and fashion-minded partygoers.

LGBT hangout: Jundu Bar 君度酒吧

About this Business
- HoursSun-Sat8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
From Our Editors
During 29 years of drifting through the Florida skies, Orlando Balloon Rides had already amassed an impressive fleet of gargantuan flying inflatables when a new balloon arrived. The product of an ambitious factory in Spain, the newcomer holds more than 400,000 cubic feet of hot air and stands as tall as an 11-story building. Four times the size of the average hot air inflatable, it's among the most massive hot air balloons currently flown in the United States.
Now reigning as a popular vessel for the company's sunrise tours, the mammoth balloon can fly away with a basket of 24 passengers as it commands the skies, dwarfing most clouds and giving the Goodyear Blimp an identity crisis. From any of Orlando Balloon Rides' baskets, passengers take in high-altitude views of Walt Disney World and the city's skyline, sights visitors rarely get to see from above. Each of the company's hot air balloons is piloted by an FAA-certified pilot who also serves as a knowledgeable narrator of the scenery below.

New Delhi, Nov 12 (UNI) The bilateral trade between India and China will reach upto 30 billion dollars by 2009 from its current level of 17.6 billion dollars, industry chamber FICCI has said.
''If both countries make vigorous efforts in the 'China-India Friendship Year-2006', trade can go upto 30 billion dollars to diversify the export products from India and new products are identified for trade,'' the FICCI paper said here.
The analysis on deepening the economic engagement between India and China, noted that while India's exports to China are largely restricted to primary and resource based products, Chinese exports to India are fairly diversified and include resource based products, manufactured items as well as low and medium technology products.
The paper revealed that the key items of India's exports to China in 2004-05 included ores, slag and ash, iron and steel, plastics and articles thereof, organic and inorganic chemicals.
Further, India's exports to China are highly concentrated as in 2004-05, top three export items accounted for 71 per cent of total exports, top five export items accounted for 81.4 per cent of total exports and top 10 export items accounted for 90.4 per cent of total exports.
In fact, in the top 10 export items, ores, slag and ash alone accounted for 52.1 per cent of the total exports.
On the other hand, India's imports from China present a balanced picture with both resources based and manufactured products listed in the top 10 imports.
The key items of India's imports from China in 2004-05 included electrical machinery and equipment, nuclear reactors, mineral fuels and products, organic chemicals and silk.
A key feature of the trade pattern is that India's imports from China are less concentrated as compared to India's exports as in 2004-05 such as top three import items accounted for 52.4 per cent of total imports, top five import items accounted for 68.4 per cent of total imports and top 10 import items accounted for 77.5 per cent of total imports.
FICCI has identified 14 items as focus products for enhancing and diversifying India's exports to china, including automobiles, electronic components, and pharmaceuticals.
With China's entry into the WTO, immense opportunities have also opened for setting up joint ventures and business collaborations between Indian and Chinese Industry, it said.
While total Chinese investment inflows into India during the period August 1991 to July 2006 amounted to about 3.5 million dollars, total Indian approved investment in China during the period April 1996 to February 2006 is estimated to be about 161.4 million dollars.
The key sectors where Chinese companies have invested in the Indian market include telecommunications, metallurgical industries, commercial, office and household equipments, transportation industry and electrical equipment.
The presence of Indian companies in China has also increased substantially, especially in sectors such as iron and steel, textiles, chemicals, automobile components, and pharmaceuticals.
Indian companies in China are active in Services Sector like restaurants, entertainment, culture and banking.
Indian companies are also looking at projects in China in the areas like gas turbine and steel. Project exports are an important area, particularly as China receives a large amount of multi-lateral loans and Indian companies can participate in projects enjoying multilateral funding.
To give a fillip to bilateral trade, FICCI has operationalised its hyperlink with China Council for Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT).
Besides the Joint Business Council (JBC) agreement between FICCI and CCPIT, FICCI has signed 10 MoUs with various organisations in China to strengthen networks for doing business, thus giving a fillip to the two-way trade.

Cyclospora infections are characterized by watery diarrhea, with frequent, sometimes explosive, stools. Other symptoms include loss of appetite, substantial weight loss, bloating, increased flatus, stomach cramps, nausea, fatigue, low-grade fever and vomiting. Diarrhea may last 9-43 days in otherwise healthy persons, but it may continue for months in immunocompromised persons. Asymptomatic and relapsing infections occur. Most reported cases have occurred during spring and summer.

UFO was seen in the city of Agudos, in a highway (Marechal Rondon). The local news channel informed that a very small earthquake was felt by the local people. Note that the UFO transforms in a "rain of light" falling all over the place.
Hoax or Fact:
This is a video that has been around since early 2011, and claims to show a UFO sighted over Marechal Rondon highway in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It is also said that a local news channel reported a very small earthquake as the UFO transforms into a "rain of light" and falls over the place. Thankfully, that was not the fact!
About the Video
The video shows couple of guys driving on a highway and recording their travel, when suddenly they come to find a UFO in between clouds of far sky. The UFO video with Portuguese (perhaps Brazilian Portuguese) commentary from the people who spot it became very popular online, and many actually believed the UFO could be real.
Flaws in the Video
Although the footage shown to capture a UFO appears real at first sight, a close look at it frame by frame reveals that it is possibly edited. As shown in the two pictures in Image Gallery, you can spot out of context objects that appear even before the said UFO falls apart.
The Reality
The video was in fact a part of viral marketing campaign for a new kind of pizza box called Pizzboxx, which is printed with advertising. The advertising film shown in the second video was developed by the Brazilian company AtitudeMediaBox that has a tag line 'an unusual way to deliver your brand anywhere in the world'. In a screenshot of the website shown in Image Gallery, you can see the 'UFO' used in the viral film titled "Ovni Rondon," where Ovni in Portuguese means UFO. At the end of the advertisement, the video presents the original viral video as well that you can watch here.
In short, the video claiming to show a UFO sighted on Marechal Rondon highway in Brazilian Sao Paulo is a hoax; it was part of a viral marketing campaign for a Pizza Box company. Viral videos like this have become a successful way to promote a brand, product or service.

Located just 25 miles north of Chicago, the Openlands Lakeshore
Preserve presents one of the last remaining ravine and bluff
ecosystems in the metropolitan region. The preserve consists of two
continuous miles of shoreline unspoiled by development. Be aware
before heading out though--this is a nonswimming beach and there
are no public restrooms. There's no parking at the preserve, so
park on the streets nearby. To find the park from North Sheridan
Road, park on either Lyster or Westover roads and proceed east by
foot to reach the top of Bartlett Ravine, the main entry to the
Openlands Lakeshore Preserve. Or take Metra to the Highwood stop.
The walk from the train station is short and there are plenty of
places to grab a bite to eat or take a bathroom break before
getting to the park.
