I missed reading thrillers and I forgot exactly how much I enjoyed them until I read this book. I have heard raving reviews about it for a while, but now I know firsthand how great it truly is!
Sixteen-year-old Juliet Moreau has built a life for herself in London—working as a maid, attending church on Sundays, and trying not to think about the scandal that ruined her life. After all, no one ever proved the rumors about her father's gruesome experiments. But when she learns he is alive and continuing his work on a remote tropical island, she is determined to find out if the accusations are true.
Accompanied by her father's handsome young assistant, Montgomery, and an enigmatic castaway, Edward—both of whom she is deeply drawn to—Juliet travels to the island, only to discover the depths of her father's madness: He has experimented on animals so that they resemble, speak, and behave as humans. And worse, one of the creatures has turned violent and is killing the island's inhabitants. Torn between horror and scientific curiosity, Juliet knows she must end her father's dangerous experiments and escape her jungle prison before it's too late. Yet as the island falls into chaos, she discovers the extent of her father's genius—and madness—in her own blood.
One thing I love about thrillers in general is that when they're well written, you can never see the surprises coming. This book was done really well in that regard. It also kept me on the edge of my seat, and I couldn't put it down from the minute that I picked it up until I finished it. Even before Juliet reaches the island, her story is exciting.
The animals made my blood crawl, and as the plot unfolded I became more and more emotionally invested in the story. Sometimes I've noticed that when romance is involved in creepy plotlines like this one, I only get more attached to the characters and their romance. Speaking of which, there is a love triangle in this book, but it felt soft and well done, not annoying like most of the ones you read are. There isn't a love triangle for the sake of one, there is a girl drawn to two different men in a natural way. That is okay, in my book. I thought it added to the story.
The ending broke my heart into little pieces, but maybe I'm just sentimental. I absolutely CANNOT WAIT to read the rest in the series (I believe there's three?) and spread the word about these great books.
Highly recommended for anyone not looking for the typical YA and lovers of gothic horror and old timey literature.
Happy Spring!

The Shadowmaster was a wizard on Thundera who used a cloak of darkness to conjure his magical powers and attempted to take over the planet.
The Shadowmaster once attempted to destroy Thundera, but he was stopped and exiled by the young Jaga and Claudus with the help of the Sword of Omens. Many years later he returns from the exile offering to destroy the Thundercats to the Ancient Spirits of Evil in an attempt to gain their sympathy and displace the position of Mumm-Ra before them.
Through a sequence of nightmares, Lion-O eventually learns of his father's imprisonment in the Shadow Realm and is able to rescue him. The Shadowmaster has arguably come closer to defeating the ThunderCats than anyone else. In his one-time assault on the ThunderCats, the Shadowmaster would have succeeded had Mumm-Ra not interfered for fear that the Shadowmaster would replace him as the chief servant to the Ancient Spirits of Evil.
He had the ability to summon twisted creatures from shadow cape and can shoot mystic bolts.

In progress post and spoilers after the jump ...
(Jason Yeager, Alexandrea Lushington, Robbie Carrico and Alaina Whitaker are out.)
Opening comment. Credits. Ryan. Judges. Ryan asks Randy to explain the theme weeks. Randy says everyone knows the songs on the radio so it's a better test to go back. Ryan asks Paula if it's tough to give up control (to the voting audience). She says "it's about connecting with America." Ryan brings up Simon's hand gesture. "It's a code," he says. "There is a gesture I could give you but I won't."
Group sing: "I Saw the Light." Johns starts, then David Cook, Jason and Danny together, Archuleta. ... The women come in for "It's a Heartache," starting with Kady and Carly. And on it goes. All boring, and a lot of bad singing, and the overall audio is spotty. Break.
Guys first. Recap. Asks back row to stand: Jason Y, Danny, Chikezie, Jason C, Michael. Michael and Chikezie are safe. Jason C is safe. Jason Y is out. As Jason Y talks, camera goes to Danny, who looks absolutely indifferent; he must not have gotten the act-as-if-you-care memo. After Jason Y does his sing-off, there's a group hug -- but Danny's over to the side, hands on hips and pouting. I want this guy gone. He's a bad singer and a little snot.
After a break, the women's turn. Recap. Ryan makes back row stand. Kristy, Amanda, Alexandrea, Brooke and Asia'H. One is out, says Ryan. Kristy is safe. Asia'H is safe. Brooke is safe. Leaves Alexandrea and Amanda. Alexandrea is out. Randy says it's not the right choice but she picked the wrong song. David Archuleta is crying -- hard -- through her sing-off.
Women again. Front row: Carly, Alaina, Ramiele, Syesha and Kady. Carly is safe. Ramiele is safe. Syesha is safe. Leaves Alaina and Kady. Alaina looks terrified, Kady relaxed. Kady is safe, Alaina is out. Alaina is incredibly upset, consoled by Kady, consoled by Ryan. Ryan explains to her that someone has to go, and gets her one more round of applause. Paula, also distressed, calls her a "gifted, bright young talent" and "this is the start of an amazing career for you." And NOW Danny is crying?
Ryan offers to excuse her from the group sing. She carries on, surrounded by the other women. Gets stronger as she goes along. But it's all a reminder of how very young and fragile some of the contestants are.
"Idol" announcement: On March 11 -- top 12 night -- new set, new graphics, new exit song recorded by Ruben Studdard and, as has already been reported, the show has gotten some Lennon-McCartney song rights.
Promo for "Idol Gives Back," with bunches of footage from last year. Lonnnnng promo. Break.
Ryan talks more about "Idol Gives Back": Brad Pitt, Miley Cyrus, Reese Witherspoon, Daughtry, Carrie Underwood, Snoop Dogg expected.
Last row: Luke, David H, Robbie, David C, Archuleta.
Luke and Robbie are brought forward. Robbie, the big rock poser, is out. He admits to bad song choice and that he could have done it better. Simon brings up the lack of authenticity. Robbie doesn't argue. Ryan brings up the other three people dropped for the video recap of their journey. (His word, obviously, not mine.) Robbie sings out.

My event was 'a day of collage' a workshop where artists and beginners could take photos and experiment with the art of collage! I called it Paper Heart and incorporated my photographs into the collages, allowing the textures to become drapes of clothing on my abstract figures. Now it's not a real workshop but one day it might just be ;)
Below are photographs of my finished project.

Autumn in Jeynov is a season of weddings. Islam encourages and blesses marriage and as there are many young people in qishlaq, each autumn day is marked by several weddings. Pilaw and shurpa are cooked in huge cauldrons for scores of guests invited to a traditional feast with music and dancing. The wedding ceremony combines traditional and modern features. Brides nowadays prefer to be dressed in a western style. After the ceremony, the groom's mother leads the newly married couple to their room. Following common tradition, the young couple look in the mirror held by the groom's mother. After that, the mirror is put into a special carpet "envelope" ("oina halta", literally meaning "mirror bag"). The "envelope" (usually having two sections) is hung on a wall and becomes a kind of "safe" for the woman of the house. Men are forbidden to open it.
1. Bride and Groom in front of a mirror
2. A Wedding - Guests arriving
1. Oina halta - mirror bag made of sheep wool. A typical Arabic border frames central medallions with an ancient tribal symbol, the "tawuk-gol", common to all tribes inhibiting the steppes of Central Asia. The technique and decoration of the bag (though not its form) are typical for Turkman-Ersari that migrated to the Kashka Daria region from the Middle Amu Daria in the 18th Century and mixed with Arabs who inhibited the region at that time.

What would happen if the Brownrat horde decided to give Kurdley a wee surprise for breakfast? Read on and please don't die laughing. I could get sued.
The Brownrat horde were getting sick of toting round the fat rat everybeast called Gruntan Kurdley. The litter bearers were especially sick of the enormous weight of the litter pressed into their backs every time of the season. The rest of the horde followed behind the litter, talking amongst themselves. One horde member muttered to another.
- "I tell ye mate, ole Kurdley's heavier than an oak nowadays. 'Ow in the name of Vulpiz did this moron get to be Chief round 'ere?" His friend shook his head.
- "Wonders never cease, eh mate? To answer yore question I have no clue. 'E ain't even all that scary. Gruntan Kurdley, huh. More like Gruntan Hurly." The other horderat's eyes lit up with malice and he stiffled a snicker.
- "Wot's up with ye? 'Ave you got soft in the 'ead, matey?" He shook his head still giggling like a naughty Dibbun.
- "I gots a fabulous idea, me ole mate. 'Ow abouts we do in the Boss only the only thing 'e can blame is 'is own greed?" The other horde member looked thoughtful.
- "Oh aye, I could get into that. But, 'ows are we sposed to do it?" His companion grinned.
- "Leave it to me." The next stop that the horde members made was at a pretty clearing. (Little did they know that Gorath was handing out a heaping platter of just desserts to the other members of the horde a few miles away.) Gruntan snapped out orders for his breakfast of eggs as usual.
- "I'm 'ungry, yew lazy layabouts! Serve me brekkist quick else yew gets a bad case o' the Kurdleys!" The two members of the horde who were talking earlieer arrived swiftly with hidden smirks on their ugly faces.
- "'Ere yew are boss! The primest vittles we could find and prepare just for yew!" His companion winked.
- "Aye, don't go ettin' 'em up too fast now!" Now Kurdley didn't like being told how to eat, so he shoveled down the platter of eggs, snarfing them faster than a hare. The two members of the horde hid ehind the bushes and watched the fireworks. It started slowly at first, the Boss swelled up more than usual and he didn't look too chipper. Then he started wheezing and turned a nasty green color.
- "Ooh! I think I'm goin' to be sick." Kurdly muttered. The horderat turned to his mate.
- "That's yore grand plan? Make 'im sick?" He shushed him.
- "Jus' watch." and watch they did. Kurdley felt his stomach rumble and grumble until the Brownrats (who aren't the brightest vermin in the land) started looking for thunder. The Boss then swelled up even larger than usual and then...he upchucked everywhere. Egg flew out like a firehose. He spewed like a waterfall and the litter carriers groaned in disgust. The two horderats shook with mirth.
- "Oh heeheeheehee! That's a good 'un! Look at 'im spew!" His companion held his sides.
- "'Ang on mate, 'ere come the best part!" Kurdley had not stopped his epic spew, and was carrying on at such a rate than the horde just watched him. He suddenly stopped and took a few breaths.
- "Bring me some water..." he wheezed. A dutiful daughter came bearing a canteen and held it out to the Boss. Before it even touched his paw, Kurdley exploded. Literally. The horde stared in shock while the two plotters exploded with laughter. The old cook Laggle, walked to the mess of Kurdley. Only his footpaws remained. She looked back at the horde.
- "Well, ole Kurdley's gone an' slayed 'imself with all that eatin'. I spose we should just leave now. We're free! FREE!" The horde cheered. No one would miss the nasty Boss at all. The two plotters who liberated their members waited until the horde left and swpt up the mess and buried it in a big hole along with the litter. The first rat found a plank of wood and inscribed these words:

This was a GREAT stay all the way around. The location is wonderful - within walking distance of almost everything. The room was extremely nice and clean. Breakfast was especially good - they say it's a continental breakfast, but it was much nicer than any continental breakfast I have had previously. It included ham and cheese biscuits along with a couple of fruit salads and several choices of homemade breads - blueberry, banana, cranberry ..... boiled eggs, a large variety of pastries and more. I would highly recommend this property and will certainly be returning.

Sarkozy: We need Britain, but there are now 'two Europes'
French President Nicolas Sarkozy admitted on Monday that the European Union was now a two-speed alliance but insisted that Britain would not be forced out of the bloc's single market.
Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel fell out with Prime Minister David Cameron at least week's EU summit when London refused to sign up to a pact imposing closer economic coordination between member states.
"We did everything, the chancellor and I, to allow the British to take part in the agreement. But there are now clearly two Europes," Sarkozy said in an interview with the French daily Le Monde.
"One wants more solidarity between its members and more regulation. The other is attached only to the logic of the single market," he said.
But, asked whether Britain, which has refused to join the single currency and opposed last week's fiscal pact, could still remain inside the EU single market, Sarkozy said: "We need Great Britain."
"We'd be greatly impoverished if we allowed its departure which, luckily, is not on the agenda," he insisted.
Sarkozy insisted that Cameron's attempt to protect London's financial centre from European regulation would fail and slammed Britain's refusal to join the European single currency.
"Their repeated insistence on their opposition to ever joining the euro cannot be without consequence," he said. "I'd add that their demands on financial services were not acceptable.
"The crisis was born in the deregulation of finance. We can never accept taking a step backwards. Europe needs more regulation," he warned.
Cameron has accused Brussels of making "repeated attacks" on Britain's huge financial sector and British officials privately accuse France and Germany of seeking to steal business from the City to boost Paris and Frankfurt.
Separately, the head of France's financial regulator branded Cameron's Conservatives "the stupidest" right-wing party in the world for pushing its leader into confrontation with Europe.
"It's rare to see a European country truly refuse to reach a deal because of, to put it crudely, pressure from the finance lobby," Jean-Pierre Jouyet, chairman of the AMF market regulator, told France Inter radio.
"For a long time we have thought the French right the stupidest in the world," he continued.
"I think, in this case, the British right has shown that it can be the stupidest, in that it has served not its national interest but purely the interests of high finance," he declared.
"I think that's a shame because we need our British friends in Europe," he said, arguing that Cameron's centre-left predecessors Tony Blair and Gordon Brown would not have made "the same mistake."

(a) a drop of rain falling down with a constant speed,
(b) a cork of mass 10 g floating on water,
(c) a kite skillfully held stationary in the sky,
(d) a car moving with a constant velocity of 30 km/h on a rough road,
(e) a high-speed electron in space far from all gravitating objects, and free of electric and magnetic fields.
(a) As drop of rain is failing with a constant speed, acceleration is zero, and in accordance with first law of motion, the net force on the drop of rain is zero.
(b) A cork is floating on water, its weight is balanced by the up thrust, the upward force namely buoyancy Therefore, net force on cork is zero.
(c) As the kite is held stationary no net force acts on it. The force exerted by the air on the kite is balanced by the tension produced in the string.
(d) As the car is moving with a constant velocity, the net force on the car is zero.
(e) As force due to gravity, electric and magnetic fields are zero, no net force acts on the electron.
(a) during its upward motion,
(b) during its downward motion,
(c) at the highest point where it is momentarily at rest. Do your answers alter if the pebble were thrown at an angle of say 45° with the horizontal direction?
As the acceleration is always in the vertically downward direction, the direction of force wil also be vertically down in all the three above cases.
(a) When the pebble moves vertically downwards, the magnitude and direction of the net force on the pebble is the same in all the three cases and is given by
Mass of the pebble 'm' = 0.05 kg
Therefore the net force 'F' = ma = 0.05 x 9.8 = 0.49 N
The net force is 0.49 N vertically downwards in all the cases i.e (a), (b) and (c). If the pebble were thrown at an angle of 45o with horizontal, the pebble will have components of velocity along horizontal and vertical. at the highest point the the pebble will not be at rest but will have a horizontal component given by u cos 450 where u is the speed with which the pebble was thrown.
(a) just after it is dropped from the window of a stationary train,
(b) just after it is dropped from the window of a train running at a constant velocity of 36 km/h,
(c) just after it is dropped from the window of a train accelerating with 1ms-2
(d) lying on the floor of a train which is accelerating with 1 ms-2, the stone being at rest relative to the train. Neglect air resistance throughout.
(a) The net force F = ma = 0.1 x 9.8 N = 0.98 N vertically downwards.
The net force F acting on the stone is 0.98 N vertically downwards
(b) In this case, as the train is moving with constant speed, it will not affect the motion of the stone ,The magnitude and direction of the net force is same as (a)
(c) The magnitude and direction of the net force is same as (a)
(d) The net force F = ma = 0.1 x 1 N = 0.1 N
The net force is 0.1 N along the direction of the motion of the train.
(i) T (ii) (iii) (iv) 0
T is the tension in the string. [Choose the correct alternative).
The tension acting towards the centre and along the radius provides the necessary centripetal force, i.e.
The particle, if unrestrained by the string, will continue to move in a straight line without any change in velocity. The inertia force is internal to the particle. The weight of the particle = mg and the corresponding reaction of the table are balancing each other and do not figure in the net force. Any net external force acting on a particle should produce an acceleration. The only net force on the particle is T and the centripetal acceleration is the only acceleration on the particle. Hence the answer is (i).
The magnitude of retarding force 'F' = 50 N
Mass of the body 'm' = 20 kg
Acceleration 'a' = F / m
= 50 / 20
=- 2.5 m/s2 ( the negative sign meaning retardation)
Velocity of the body 'v' = 15 m/s
Therefore the time taken by the body to stop is given by
t = (v - u)/a = 6 s
The body takes 6 s to come to a stop.
Mass of the body 'm' = 3 kg
Initial velocity 'u' = 2 ms-1
Final velocity 'v' = 3.5 ms-1
Time taken 't' = 25 s
Acceleration 'a' = 0.06 m/s2
Force 'F' = m x a
= 3 x 0.06
Therefore the magnitude and direction of the force is 0.18 N along the direction of motion.
Mass of the body 'm' = 5 kg
Force acting on the body 'F1' = 8 N
Resultant force 'F' = = 10 N
Using the relation F = ma
Acceleration 'a' = 2 m/s2
The acceleration will be produced along the direction of F,
or θ = cos ( 4/ 5 ) with 8N force.
tan θ = F2/ F1 = 6/8 = ¾ therefore θ = 37o.
Initial velocity 'u' = 36 km/h = 10 m/s
Mass of the vehicle 'm1' = 400 kg
Mass of the driver 'm2' = 65 kg
...Total mass 'M' = m1 + m2
= 400 + 65
= 465 kg
Time taken 't' = 4s
Acceleration 'a' = -2.5 m/s2 (negative sign indicates retardation)
Average retarding force 'F' = m x a
= 465 x (-2.5)
= 1162.5 N. (Acting opposite in direction to the motion of the vehicle)
Retarding force =1162.5N.
Mass of the rocket 'm' = 20,000 kg ( given)
Initial acceleration 'a1' = 5 ms-2
Acceleration due to gravity 'g' = 9.8 ms-2
... Total acceleration 'a' = a1 + g = 5 + 9.8 = 14.8 ms-2
... The initial thrust of the blast 'F' = m x a = 20,000 x 14.8 = 296000 = 2.96 x 105 N.
Mass of the particle 'm' = 0.4 kg
Initial velocity 'u' = 10 ms-1
Force acting on the particle 'F' = -8 N
(i) At time t = 0, x(0) = 0, and F = -8 N
At t = -5 s, no force was acting, so a = 0
xt - x0 = ut + 1 / 2 at2
xt - 0 = 10 × (-5) = -50 m
At time t = -5 s, the body was at -50 m
(ii) Position at t = 100 s, xt = ?
a = = -20 ms-2
Since the force acts towards south, F is taken as -ve. F acts for 30s so the body retards for 30 s. After 30 s it moves with constant speed.
Position at 100s = position at 30s + distance traveled in 70s
Position at 30s, xt = x0 + ut + at2
= 0 + 10 x 30 - (20 x 302)
= 300 - 9000
= -8700 m
Velocity at the end of 30 s = u + at = 10 + (-20) x 30 = 10 - 600 = -590 ms-2
Distance traveled in 70 s = Uniform velocity x time = (-590) x 70 = -41,300 m
Position of the body at 100 s = - 8700 + (-41,300) = - 50, 000 m.
Initial velocity 'u' = 0
Acceleration due to gravity 'g' = 9.8 m/s2
Acceleration of the car 'a' = 2 ms-2
Distance travelled by the stone 'h' = 6 m
Time at which stone is dropped 't' = 10s
Velocity of the car at time 10s 'v1' = u + at
= 0 + 2 x 10
= 20 m/s2
A stone is dropped from the car moving with a horizontal velocity 20 ms-1, and then the stone has the same
horizontal velocity at 11 s.
(a) It's vertical velocity after 1 s is
v2 = u + at
where ut is the initial vertical velocity
= 0 + 9.8 x 1
= 9.8 ms-1
Resultant velocity 'v' =
= 22.27 ms-1
Let a be the angle made by v with v1
tan α = = = 0.49
α = 26°
(b) Acceleration at 11 s = 9.8 ms-2
There is no horizontal acceleration.
(a) The velocity of the bob at its extreme position is zero. Therefore, when the string is cut, it will fall down vertically under the effect of acceleration due to gravity
(b) When the bob is in the mean position, its horizontal component of velocity = 1m/s. and it acts tangentially. Therefore, the bob will trace a parabolic path and will fall down along a parabolic path.
(a) upwards with a uniform speed of 10 ms-1
(b) downwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 ms-1
(c) upwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 ms-2.
What would be the reading of the scale in each case?
(d) What would be the reading if the lift mechanism failed and it hurtled down freely under gravity?
The forces acting on the man are,
1. Weight of the man acting vertically downward
2. The reaction R of the weighing machine acting vertically up
(a) When the lift moves upwards with a uniform velocity
Ma = R - Mg,
Acceleration, a = 0 for uniform velocity
∴ R = Mg = 70 × 9.8 = 686 N
∴ The reading shown by the machine = = 70 kg f
(b) When the lift is moving downwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 ms-2, we have,
Ma = Mg - R
R = M (g - a) = 70(9.8 - 5)
The reading shown by the machine is = 34.29 kg f
(c) When the lift moves upwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 ms-2
Ma = R - Mg
R = M (g + a) = 70 (9.8 + 5)
The reading shown by the machine is = 105.71 kg f
(d) When the lift falls freely under gravity, a = g
Ma = Mg - R
or R = M (g - a) = M (g - g)
R = 0 since the normal reaction is zero, the machine will not register any reading.
Mass of the particle, m =4 kg,
(a) Force acting on the particle for the interval t < 0 , the particle is not moving, hence no force acts on it.
For t > 4s, x has a constant value 3m, as given by AB, the body is again at rest, ... no force is acting on the body.
During the interval, 0 < t < 4s, shown by OA in the figure the speed being constant, acceleration is zero. hence . no force acts on the body.
(b) Impulse = Final momentum - initial momentum
Initial momentum just before t = 0 is 0
Final momentum just after t = 0 is 4 × 3/4 = 3 kgms-1
... (Speed = slope of OA)
(Impulse)t = 0 = 3 - 0 = 3kgms-1
Similarly, (Impulse)t=0 = 4s = Final momentum - Initial momentum
= 0 - 3 = -3Kgms-1 check font
Impulse at t = 4s
Before t = 4s, momentum = 3 kgms-1
After t = 4s, momentum = 0
Therefore change of momentum = 0 - 3 kgms-1
and Impulse = -3 kgms-1.
Let us assume that the force is applied, to 20kg mass as shown in the figure.
Let T1 be the tension in the string between the two masses.
The horizontal force F = 500N
Mass m1 = 10 kg
Mass m2 = 20 kg
Therefore the acceleration produced in the body of total mass m1 + m2 = 30 kg
We know that acceleration produced in the body of F = ma = 500 = 50 ms-2
30 3
Therefore acceleration a = = 500/30 = 50/3 ms-2 = 16.67 ms-2
The tension T1 is acting on the mass m2 = 10 kg which is also under the acceleration a
(a) When 500N pull is applied on 20 kg, tension T1 of the string due to the mass m1 = T1 = m1 x a
= 10 x 16.67
(b) When 500N pull is applied on 10kg tension T2 of the string due to the mass m2 = T2 = m2 x a
= 20 x 16.67
Consider two masses m1 and m2 connected to the ends of an inextensible string passing over a smooth frictionless pulley as shown in the fig. Let T be the tension in the string which is uniform throughout. The heavier mass (say m1) moves downward with an acceleration 'a'.
a =
= 4 / 20 = 1.96 m/s2
The resultant downward force while considering the heavier mass m1 is given by
m1 g - T = m1 a ---------(i)
The resultant upward force while considering mass m2 is given by
T - m2g = m2a ------------- (ii)
Adding (i) and (ii) we have,
(m1 - m2) g = (m1 + m2)a
or a = g ------------ (iii)
Putting the value of 'a' in (i) and simplifying we get,
T = ------------ (iv)
Substituting the given values, we get
= 84.08
If M is the mass of the nucleus at rest. Initial momentum of the nucleus = 0. Let and be the velocities of two disintegrated parts (masses M1 and M2 respectively) therefore 0 = M1 + M2 . Since and have opposite signs therefore, M1 and M2 move in opposite directions.
Initial momentum of the ball before collision = mv= 0.5x (-6) = -0.30kg-m/s
The ball rebounded with same speed after collision hence its direction changes,
Mass of the ball 'm' = 0.05 kg
Velocity of each ball before collision 'u' = 6 ms-1
Velocity after collision = -u = -6 ms-1
Change in velocity = u - (-u)
= 2u = 12 ms-1
Impulse = Change in momentum
= m x 2u
= 0.05 x 12
= 0.6 kg ms-1.
Mass of the shell m = 0.02 kg
Mass of the gun M= 100 kg
Speed of the shell v= 80 ms-1
Recoil speed of the gun V is given by
= -0.016 m/s.
Speed of the ball = 54 km/h chk alignment next line
= = 15 ms-1
The change in momentum will be obtained by finding the resultant of two momenta inclined at an angle of 45° to each other.
Initial momentum of the ball A = m x u = 0.15 x 15 kgms-1
= 2.25 kgms-1
Final momentum B of ball will also be 2.25 kgms-1 because there is no change in the speed of the ball.
The resultant of two momentum
= 4.16 kgms-1
The impulse imparted is the change in momentum and is equal to 4.16 kgms-1 and will act along the bisector of the initial and final directions.
Mass of the stone, M = 0.25 kg
Centripetal acceleration, a = v2 / R [v = tangential velocity]
Angular speed, w = 40 rev/min
= 40 × 2 p / 60 rad/s
= 1.33 p rad/s
Tension in the string, T = M a = M v2 / R
= M R w 2 [v =Rw ]
= 0.25 × 1.5 × 1.332 p 2 N
If the tension is to be a maximum of 200 N
200 = 0.25×1.5 ×w max2
w max2 = 200/0.375
Maximum angular speed, w = 23.09 m/s.
(a) the stone jerks radially outwards,
(b) the stone flies off tangentially from the instant the string breaks,
(c) the stone flies off at an angle with the tangent whose magnitude depends on the speed of
the particle?
When the stone is being whirled around, the tension of the string is acting radially. The tension provides the necessary centripetal force for the particle to move in the circle. At the moment the string is cut, the particle is moving with a tangential velocity. Then there is no other force acting on the particle. It therefore continues to maintain the tangential velocity, which it had at the time of separation. Alternative (b) is correct.
(a) a child revolving in a giant wheel,
(b) A driver in a sports car moving with a constant high speed of 200 km/h on a straight road,
(c) The pilot of an aero plane which is taking off,
(d) A cyclist negotiating a sharp turn,
(e) The guard of a train which is slowing down t step at a station.
(a) A child revolving in a giant wheel has centripetal acceleration. Hence is a non-inertial frame
(b) The driver in a sports car moving with a constant high speed (200 km h-1) is not accelerating, hence is an inertial frame.
(c) When the aeroplane takes off, it has an accelerated motion. Therefore, the pilot of an aeroplane, which is taking off is a non-inertial frame
(d) While negotiating a sharp turn, there is change in direction of motion of the cyclist and hence the motion is an accelerated one. Therefore, a cyclist negotiating a sharp turn is non-inertial observer.
(e) When a train is slowing down to stop at a station, its motion is retarding. Therefore, the guard of a train, who is slowing down to stop at a station is non-inertial observer.
A particle in uniform motion in a circular path has to have a force to move it in a path other than in a straight line. (By Newton's first law, it will continue to move in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force). This force is the centripetal force = mv2/R directed radially towards the centre. The net force on the particle is not zero and the particle is not in equilibrium. This statement is not true for an inertial observer, that is, an observer from outside the frame of the system, who can perceive only the forces external to the body.
The statement makes some sense to an observer rotating with the particle. He perceives the particle to be at rest and imagines a centrifugal force relative to the particle radially outward balancing the centrifugal force directed inwards. The centrifugal force should not be conceived in an inertial frame.
(a) a horse cannot pull a cart and run in empty space.
(b) passengers are thrown forward from their seats when a speeding bus stops suddenly?
(c) a cricketer moves his hands backwards when holding a catch?
(a) The reaction force of the ground on the feet of the horse, makes the horse move along with the cart. As the space is empty, there is no reaction. So the horse cannot move and therefore it cannot pull a cart.
(b) When the speeding bus stops suddenly, the e lower part of the body of the passengers come to rest along with the bus but the upper part of the body remains in a state of motion on account of 'inertia of motion'.
(c) The fact that while catching a cricket ball, a cricketer moves his hand backwards, can be explained on the basis of impulse. If he catches the ball abruptly, he will have to apply a large retarding force for a small time, but while moving the hands backwards, he applies a small retarding force, but for a longer time. The reaction on his hand is also less, thereby decreasing the hurt on the palms.
Time in seconds
From the figure it is clear that the
1. the speed of the particle changes direction every 2 seconds.
2. In both the directions, the magnitude of the speed is the same as is given by, the slope of the line OA and AB
3.The slope shows the speed = 2/2 =1cm/s
This speed of the particle is constant but velocity is not constant because the direction reverses every 2 seconds. However the magnitude of the velocity remains the same.
The impulse is change in momentum. At points like O and A there is a change in momentum. The velocity of the particle changes from 1 cms-1 to -1 cms-1, i.e., by 2 cm s-1 or 0.02 ms-1
The time between two consecutive impulses received by the aorticle is 2 s
Therefore impulse = change in momentum
= m x change in velocity
= 0.04 kg x 0.02 ms-1
= 8 x 10-4 ms-1
The graph may represent rebounding of a particle between two walls situated at x = 0 and x = 2 cm. Thus the particle receives an impulse of magnitude 8 x 10 -4 kg ms-1 after every two second.
When the man is stationary, w.r.t the belt, the net force acting on him is given by
Acceleration of belt, a = 1m/s-2
Net force on the man = mass (m) of man x a = 65 x 1 = 65 N
Coefficient of static friction between man's shoes and belt, ms = 0.2
The various forces acting are,
(i) weight f the man acting vertically downward = mg = 65 x 9.8 = 637 N.
(ii) Normal reaction of the belt (equal and opposite to the weight of the man), R = 637N.
(iii) The force due to maximum acceleration of rthe belt, F = ma = 65a
(iv) Maximum frictional force,
F' = m mg = 0.2 x 65 x 9.8
The amn would remain stationary, for the value of acceleration, a such that, At equilibrium F = F'
65a = 0.2 x 65 x 9.8
a = ( 0.2 x 65 x 9.8 ) / (65)
a = 1.96ms-2.
and the highest point respectively.
(a) Lowest point = mg – T1 and Highest point = mg + T1
The three forces acting on the mass are mg (always downward), T1 and T2 (along the string towards the centre), and mv2/R, the centripetal force. The force on the lowest point = T2 - mg (radially inward) = mv2/R. The force experienced by the stone at the lowermost point is T2 - mg. Similarly, the force experienced at the highest point = T1 - mg. Alternative (i) is therefore correct.
(a) force on the floor by the crew and passengers
(b) action of the rotor of the helicopter on the surrounding air,
(c) force on the helicopter due to the surrounding air.
Mass of the helicopter m1 = 1000 kg
Acceleration a = 15 m/s2
The mass of passenger and crew m2 = 300 kg
Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s2
(a) Force on the floor by the crew and passengers = m2 x g + m2 x a
= (300 x 10) + (300 x 15)
= 3000 + 4500
The force on the floor by the crew and passengers is 7500N direct downwards.
(b) Action of the rotor of the helicopter on the surrounding air is given by
= (m1 + m2)g + (m1 + m2)a
= ( m1 + m2 ) ( g + a )
= ( 1000 + 300 ) (10 + 15)
= 1300 + 25
This force acts vertically downwards.
(c) Applying Newton's 3rd law of motion, we find that the force on the helicopter due to the surrounding air is 32500 N
acts vertically upwards.
Let us calculate the mass of water flowing out per second and hitting the wall,
Volume of water coming out of A in one second, = Volume of of water contained in a cylinder of length 15m and area of cross section0.01m2.
Initial velocity 'u' = 15 ms-1
Density of water r = 1000 kgm-3
Suppose the liquid flows from P to Q in t sec, the velocity V = l/t
Volume of cylinder PQ = A x l
Mass of liquid transported in one sec
= A Vρ
Here A = 10-2 m2
Velocity with which it strikes the wall, V = 15 ms-1
= A Vρ
= 10-2 x 15 x 1000 check alignment previous line
= 150 kgs-1
The momentum given to the wall in one second by water hitting it = momentum = mass x velocity
=150 x15 = 2250 n
The change of momentum in one second =force
Force exerted by water on wall = 2250 N.
(a) the force on the 7th coin (counted from the bottom) due to all the coins on its top,
(b) the force on the 7th coin by the 8th coin.
(c) The reaction of the 6th coin on the 7th coin.
(a) Mass of each coin = m kg. there are three coins each of mass m on the 7th coin. The force on the 7th coin (counted from the bottom) due to the three coins on its top is 3mg. This force is directed vertically downward.
(b) The force on the 7th coin by the 8th coin is 3mg. i.e., each coin is placed one over the other. Hence the force exerted by the 8th coin on the 7th is also 3mg, and this force is directed downward.
(c) Four coins are placed on the 6th coin. Therefore force of 4 mg acts on the 6th coin downwards, the reaction of the 6th coin on the 7th coin is 4mg directed upwards opposite in direction to the force exerted on the 6th coin.
Speed of the craft, v = 720 km/h = 720,000 / 3600 m/s = 200 m/s
Radial force on the craft to provide centripetal acceleration = m v2 / R [R = radius of the loop]
As per the above force diagram, tan 15o = (mv2/R) / (mg)
R = v2 /g tan 15o = 2002 / (9.8 x 0.268) m = 15,230 m
Radius of the loop = 15.23 km.
Mass of the train, m = 106 kg
Radius of bend R = 30 m
Speed = 54 km/h = 54,000/3600 m/s = 15 m/s
The lateral thrust required for the centripetal force is provided by the outer rail. (The wheels have flanges inside). The outer wheels rub against the outer rails. Hence the outer rails wear faster.
Forces acting on the train is given in the sketch below.
tan θ = (mv2/R) / mg = v2 / Rg = 152 / (30 × 9.8) = 0.765
Required angle of banking = θ = tan-1 0.765 = 37.4o.
Consider a ball thrown vertically upwards by a person standing on the ground. This person will observe that the ball begins to fall down vertically after sometime. But, to an observer sitting in a moving car, the same ball will appear to be following a parabolic path. So, the same event is described differently by two observers in two different frames of reference. In the first case the frame of reference is the earth which is not accelerating. In this frame of reference Newton's first law works. A reference frame that is not accelerating is called inertial frame of reference, because law of inertial works there. For all practical purposes, earth or any frame of reference set up on earth is regarded as an inertial frame of reference. On the other hand, to the observer sitting in a moving car, he is viewing the motion from an accelerating reference frame which is called the non-inertial reference frame. In this reference frame Newton's first law does not work.
Let the action by the man on the floor be A and let f (= 25 x g ) be the force the man is exerting to lift the block.
In fig (a) it is clear that the man applies an upward force of 25 kg wt. According to Newton's third law of motion, there will be a downward reaction on the floor.
The action on the floor by the man = 50 kg wt. + 25 kg wt.
= 75 kg wt.
= 75 x 9.8 N = 735 N
In the fig. (b), it is clear that the man applies a downward force of 25 kg wt. According to Newton's third law, the reaction is in the upward direction.
In this case, action on the floor by the man = 50 kg wt. - 25 kg wt.
= 25 kg wt
= 25 x 9.8 N = 245 N
Since the action of the amn on the floor in case b is less than the force at which the floor yields( to a downward force of 700 N )therefore the man should adopt mode (b).
(a) climbs up with an acceleration of 6 m s-2
(b) climbs down with an acceleration of 4 ms-2
(c) climbs up with a uniform speed of 5 ms-2
(d) falls down the rope nearly freely under gravity?
The acceleration due to gravity acts vertically downward. This direction is taken as positive.
(a) When the monkey climbs up with an acceleration, then (T - ma) = mg
(where T represents the tension)
Therefore T = mg + ma = m (g + a)
T = 40 (10 + 6) ms-1 = 640 N
The rope can withstand a maximum tension of 600N. So the rope will break.
(b) When the monkey is climbing down with an acceleration, then (T + ma) = mg
Therefore T = ( mg - ma )= m (g - a)
T = 40 (10 - 6) ms-2 = 160 N
The rope will not break.
(c) When the monkey climbs up with uniform speed, then T = mg = 40 x 10= 400 N
The rope will not break.
(d) When the monkey is falling freely, a=g, T = m ( g-g) = 0
it would be a state of weightlessness. So, the tension will be zero and the rope will not break.
Mass of the body A, MA = 5 kg
Mass of the body B, MB = 10 kg
Co-efficient of friction = 0.15
Applied force, P = 200 N
(a) Force of friction, F = mR where R is the normal reaction.
R = (5 + 10) x 9.8 kgms-2
= 147 kgms-2 or 147 N
F = 0.15 x 147 = 22.05 N
Reaction of partition = (P - F) = 200 N - 22.05 N = 177.95 N
(b) Force of friction on body A, FA = m x RA
Where RA is the normal reaction of body A.
But RA = MAg
Therefore FA = mMAg = 0.15 x 5 x 9.8 = 7.35 N
Force exerted by A and B = ( P - FA ) = 200 N - 7.35 N = 192.65 N
The force exerted by B on A is also 192.65 N
According to the third law of motion action reaction pair are equal and opposite,, hence action reaction forces between A and b are 193 N
When the partition is removed, the masses move together with an acceleration 'a' given by
a = net force/total force = 177.95 / 15 = 11.86 ms-2
Yes, when the bodies are in motion the answer to (b) changes.
(a) a stationary observer on the ground,
(b) an observer moving with the trolley?
(a) Frictional force equal to 7.5 N in the direction of motion of the trolley keeps the block at rest relative to the trolley during its accelerated motion.
(b) Law of inertia not valid for the accelerated observer.
The maximum force of friction between the box and the surface of truck = F = m x R =m x Mg
Net force on the box = ma - force of friction = (ma - mR)
= (ma - mmg)
= m (a - mg)
= 40 (2 - 0.15 x 9.8)
= 40 (2 - 1.47)
The truck is accelerating with 2 ms-2 hence the relative acceleration between the box and the truck = 0.53 ms-2
The box will start moving with a net acceleration of 0.53 ms-2 towards the open end of the ruck. To fall down the box will have to travel a distance of 5m.
Acceleration of the box relative to truck,
A = = 0.53ms-2
Let t be the time taken by the box to cover a distance of 5m
Then, 5 = 0 x t +(0.53)t2
t2 = s2
If xt be the distance covered by the truck in time t, then
xt = 0 x
= 18.87 m.
Speed of revolution of the disc, w = 100/3 rev/min = (100/3) x (2p /60) radians/s = 3.49 rad/s
For the coin to revolve with the record, the static friction force should be enough to resist the centripetal force.
If R = the radius where the coin will just slip, m = mass of the coin, and coefficient of friction = m = 0.15,
m w 2 R = m . m g …(1)
R = m g / w 2 = (0.15 x 9.8) / 3.492 m = 0.12 m
In the equation (1) above, LHS represents the centripetal force and the RHS the frictional force. If R (radius) is more than the value of balance (0.12 m) the centripetal force will be more than the frictional resistance and the coin will slip. This feature is independent of the mass of the coin.
A coin will slip when placed at 14 cm radius and will not slip at 4 cm radius.
When the motorcyclist is at the highest point of the death-well, the normal reaction R on the motorcyclist by the ceiling of the chamber acts downwards. His weight mg also acts downwards.
These two forces are balanced by the outward centrifugal force acting on him.
R + mg = ---(i)
Here v is the speed of the motorcyclist and m is the mass of the motorcyclist (including the mass of the motor cycle).
Because of the balancing of the forces, the motorcyclist does not fall down.
The minimum speed required to perform a vertical loop is given by equation (i) when R=0.
mg = or = gr = 9.8 × 25 = 15.65 m/s.
So, the minimum speed required to perform a vertical loop is 15.65 m/s.
Forces acting on the man when he just begins to slip are marked out in the figure below.
Radius of the drum R = 3m
Coefficient of static friction = m = 0.15
Minimum angular speed = w rad/s
Reaction of the wall = N. This provides the centripetal force required.
N = m w 2 / R = m × w 2 × 3 = 210 w 2
F = m N = 0.15 × m × w 2 × 3 = 0.45 m w 2. This should equal mg.
mg = 0.45 m w 2
w = √ (9.8 / 0.45) = 4.67 rad/s = minimum angular speed.
The various forces acting on the bead are given below:
(i) Normal reaction (N) acting at right angles to the direction of the motion of the bead
(ii) weight (mg) of the head acting vertically downward
(iii) The centripetal force acting towards the centre of the circular path.
We can write, mg = N cos θ -------(i)
and sin θ = N sin θ -------(ii)
or mRw 2 sin θ = N sin θ or N = mRw 2
Substituting the above equation in (i), we get
or cos θ = or cos θ = --------(iii)
∴ ≤ 1 (cos θ ≤ 1)
Thus, the bead will remain at its lowest point for w ≤
From equation (ii), cos θ = or θ = 60°.
On a banked road, the horizontal component of the normal reaction and the frictional force contribute to provide centripetal force to keep the car moving on a circular turn without slipping. At the optimum speed, the component of the normal reaction is enough to provide the required centripetal force. In this case, the frictional force is not required. The optimum speed is given by
v0 = (rg tan θ )1/2
∴ v0 = (300 × 9.8 tan 15° )1/2 m/s = 28.1 m/s
The maximum permissible speed is given by
vmax =
Substituting values and simplifying, we get vmax = 38.1 m/s.

Terrible company I booked 4 days to go to Spain in September and the email confirmation came through that I was coming back in December. I called them within 10 minutes to tell them. I was advised to contact the carrier directly to sort it out which I did, paid a lot more money so was surprised that Opodo had taken a booking fee and credit card fee totaling £29 for not doing anything and not even realizing that customer goodwill is good business practice.
I will never use their faulty online system as the staff on the so called help desk are equally useless.
Written on: 09/09/2011
I had the same problem but they told me to buy a new ticket. I called them as soon as I received the email but they were rude, unhelpful and I stayed on line for hours. They are smart because they know that customers don't have the time and patience to sue over a plane ticket. I lost 900 euros.
Written on: 02/02/2012
I am in the same position as you with opodos booking system booking different dates to what I entered I am startg to build a case against opodo to take them to court to retrieve my money. If you are willing/able to help please make contact with me here and I will send you my email adress.

text: It's a good news story as Instagram finally lands on Windows Phone. But it isn't quite the full package yet.The app is available to download, but lacks some of the features you might find on iOS and Android. Instagram claims it 'wanted to make Instagram available to people with Windows Phones as quickly as possible' and has done that by focusing on 'creating an awesome experience with Instagram's core features'. Once live, the WP team at Instagram will continue developing the Windows Phone app, releasing new features as and when they are available.So, for example, Instagram doesn't properly support in-app camera capture. However, it does take you out of the app when you click on the camera icon, redirecting to the phone's default camera application, subsequently allowing you to upload those images to the Instagram app for editing and sharing. In addition, the app doesn't yet have video capture or upload.However, it does have plenty of filters, blur effects, instant sharing to Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Tumblr and Foursquare, unlimited uploads and much more. So the social part is very much present here. It just doesn't operate as extensively as the other Instagram apps yet. Give it time though, we can see the updates coming in pretty fast.If you want 'in' straight away, the app is available now to check out.

There are two options that you can use when submitting your service metadata package to the Dashboard:
Developer mode. The package is not signed, and it must be manually downloaded and installed on every computer. Use this option if you want to save the package for offline development.
Preview mode. The package is signed and automatically downloaded from Microsoft to test computers with the appropriate registry settings configured. The package is signed by the Dashboard and runs through all the production validation checks. But preview mode does not check to ensure that the app is published to the Windows Store.

Moil Allotment, The questions were not even able to collect one third of the allotments. This is despite the fact that investors and employees of the cap will get a 5% discount to the issue price. Normally, all said that institutional investors are at the last minute because they do not want to block funds. Now it's been said that details will come in the last book because they do not want to block funds. This must be looked for; it's time until December 1 for retail investors to move into Coal India Limited had no such problems.
Institutional investors on November 30 as the date of their last.

April Blog Post: CoCA Lab Featuring Britta Johnson
Posted by Shirene on April 26, 2017

By Shirene Soleiman
This past March and April, we were invited to dive (pun intended) into the world of Britta Johnson. Specifically, we were invited to dive into the Giant Whirl. What Britta had up her sleeve during CoCA Lab takes us back to 2012 when Dylan Mayer legally hunted a giant Pacific octopus, an action that ignited a conversation about how we need to treat our local and global habitat. Through Britta's project that she previewed at CoCA UN[contained], she strives to achieve the goal of inspiring visitors to be proactive and take care of the habitat.
On two separate evenings, we had the chance to get an illuminating sneak peek of the Giant Whirl, which will be permanently installed at the Don Armeni Park in 2018. As one of three Seattle artists who were selected by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture, in partnership with Seattle City Light, Britta created a work that was to be grounded on solar energy and sustainability. This was reflected in the LED lights she had installed as the focal point of her project.
Not only were these lights amazing to look at even from a distance, with their almost trancing bright shade of blue, but they were also fun to interact with and eye-opening in terms of what their real purpose was. If you moved close enough to the lights, a lively animation of an octopus would take place. In its nearly ghostly form, this octopus would drift across the screen and curl its tentacles in smooth motions. These motion-triggering lights seemed like a way of establishing a connection between the viewer and the subject of the octopus as if to remind the viewer that we are all connected in the shared ecosystem we live in, and that therefore our nature deserves to be cherished. I believe when this Giant Whirl is installed at the Don Armeni Park, this message will be delivered even more powerfully.
Another aspect of Britta's work I found very moving was something I wasn't even sure I was supposed to pay attention to as the exhibition viewer: the insanely intricate collection of wires that hid behind these lights (see below). It looked super impressive and complicated, and it reminded me of one of the best things about art, which is there is always that piece that surprises you with its many deep layers when the entire time before you saw it as being straightforward with its message.

I thoroughly enjoyed getting my dose of Britta's vision at CoCA Lab, and I look forward to seeing the installation at the park next year! If you want to see more of her work, you can visit her website here. You can also follow her on Instagram, which I highly recommend!
CoCA March Stars!
Posted by Shirene on March 31, 2017
By Shirene Soleiman
These superbly talented, hard working and inspirational people have contributed so much to CoCA, helping the organization continue to thrive the way it does today as a vital part of the Seattle arts community. We couldn't thank these outgoing board members enough for the time and energy they have devoted to CoCA. Whether these faces are familiar or fresh to you, we would like to highlight these CoCA stars as they take on new chapters ...
Talia Silveri Wright
For the past ten years, Talia has served as an ambassador for nonprofits and arts organizations, conceptualizing fundraising and large scale public events as well as providing development and marketing support.
Her work ranges from 12×12 inches to .2x.2 centimeters in scale, incorporating handmade miniature sculpture. She uses materials such as sculpey clay, acrylic paint and resin, plastic and found objects.
Fun fact: Talia grew up working in her family's Italian restaurant, which they named after her!
Miguel Edwards
Miguel Edwards is a sculptor and public artist in Seattle. Currently the President of CoCA, he has been a culture maker in the region for over 20 years and a part of the organization since the early 2000s. Edwards just finished Perseus II, a monumental scale kinetic sculpture and Seattle landmark in the Greenwood neighborhood.
Fun fact: His favorite day of the year is June 20th, which is not only the solstice but also the day he married his lovely bride!
Lorrie Cardoso
Photo taken at the 2015 CoCA Lab Artist in Residence at CoCA UN[contained] Nat Evans performance Sit With the Hum.
Lorrie is an advocate for the arts. She was on the Board of Directors of CoCA from 2015-2017 and is currently on the Board of the Whim W'Him contemporary dance company. In addition, she is the founder of Seattle Arts and Cultural Events, a Meetup group with more than 5,000 members. She has also worked for the Starbucks Corporation for 13 years as a paralegal specializing in real estate.
Lorrie's favorite thing about CoCA is its willingness to take risks in curation. An example is the 2016 show American Power which included Ku Klux Klan robes made of non-traditional fabrics by artist Paul Rucker.
Her proudest moment with CoCA was chairing the 2015 24-Hour Art Marathon and Auction, which achieved record results.
Fun Fact: Her favorite day of the year is any day that is spent with friends and loved ones sharing good food and wine!
Dan Hawkins
Dan Hawkins is a Seattle-based photographer who uses a wide variety of obsolete and invented imaging processes to create his work. The processing of film inside the development chamber is a sensitive and extremely refined process. By incorporating the waters or other materials from the site in order to disturb the refined development process, his work allows the site to further influence the photograph.
Dan's favorite thing about CoCA has been giving new artists a platform to present their work as he found this extremely satisfying.
David Ruggiero
David Ruggiero brought big contributions to CoCA during his two years on the Board. He served as Interim Treasurer as well as resident (and pro bono) Tech Guru during some of the past year's messy technology challenges.
As with all our outgoing Board of Directors, David is looking forward to helping CoCA thrive moving forward so this is a transition to "super volunteer" as he devotes more time to family, travel and other lucky nonprofits in our region.
Even though we are sad to see them depart from the board, we are thrilled to see what they have up their sleeves in the art world!

The place is called iVIVA and is a growing movement where four main concentrations work together to make for a healthier you!
Kenny, the San Antonio owner, introduced me to the vibration machines which were originally designed by Russians for their cosmonauts...particularly those on the space station.
It is really fascinating to hear all of the benefits which can come from vibrating the body for ten minutes at a time.
While I was there, I met a Merrill Lynch VP, Lynne. She stood before me on the machine in very baggy pants...a result of losing 20 pounds after coming to iVIVA since May.
She told me, "I prefer this type of workout because I hate going to the gym and frankly have always found it hard to motivate myself to go walking before and after work. The Balance Vibration workout has overcome both of these issues for me. I can come at lunch and accomplish a two hour workout in thirty minutes."
"I am 54 years old and have been sitting behind a desk for the last 27 years. I combine this with a low carbohydrate diet. iVIVA keeps my bones dense, my circulation up and muscles strong."

Actor Ryan Reynolds and Newfoundlander Connor McGrath pose together after Reynolds travelled to Alberta to do a private screening of "Deadpool" for the 13-year-old, whose family is fundraising for him to get an experimental cancer treatment in the United States.
A Hollywood actor has pitched in to help a family originally from the Placentia area that's trying to raise the funds needed for an expensive cancer treatment.
Ryan Reynolds, star of the current number one movie in North America "Deadpool," revealed on Facebook Friday night that he visited Connor McGrath at an Edmonton hospital six weeks ago. Connor's mother Kim (Searle) is from Southeast Placentia and dad Gerald is from St. Bride's.
The 13-year-old boy was diagnosed with leukemia almost three years ago. His disease went into remission, but Connor experienced a relapse last year. A special form of therapy for children not responding to traditional treatments is now being recommended, but it costs $800,000, and government has denied coverage as the procedure — chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy — is considered experimental.
During Reynolds' hospital visit with Connor, the actor from Vancouver screened the superhero movie based on the Marvel Comics character. Reynolds' character in the film, Wade Wilson, also has a history with cancer. That made the Connor one of the first people to see the completed film, which grossed $260-million worldwide on its opening weekend.
Reynolds posted a photo of the two together on his Facebook account with a short message. It's been shared over 11,000 times as of Monday morning.
"He's quite possibly the biggest #Deadpool fan on earth," wrote Reynolds. "He was also the first person ever to see the Deadpool film. Like Wade Wilson, Connor's trying to put cancer in his rearview mirror.
"About 6 weeks ago, I traveled to Edmonton Alberta to show Connor the movie at his hospital. Of course, the Deadpool was right up his alley because Connor's the funniest, potty-mouthed Canadian mercenary I've ever met.
"He's my friend. I know lots of celebrities jump up and down touting a cause — and maybe I'm no different. But holy frozen shit-slivers, I love this kid. He's the GREATEST."
'Boy's best chance for survival costs $800,000'
'Placentia rallies around boy'
'Run for sick boy raises over $1,800'
Reynolds encouraged fans to donate to the family's online fundraising campaign, adding he's already done so himself. In a message posted Monday, Connor's mom Kim reported overall fundraising efforts have surpassed $108,000. The day before, she said Connor did not respond well to the last round of chemotherapy and will start immuno therapy treatment this week.
"Connor, being the brave kid he is, told his doctor he's not willing to give up — he wants to continue to fight," Kim wrote. "As always, hope is remission, and if remission is not possible, hope is that this coming treatment will reduce ... his disease enough until we can get to CAR t-cell. Thanks for the continued support!"

Sporting action for May 29 and 30, 2010
Convincing Talk on the greyhound track, Seagulls and Devils share the top spot, and other local sporting news and information.

Our local sporting correspondent has been keeping a close eye on the Wide Bay's courts, pitches, fields and tracks. Don't forget you can add your own results and sporting news to our coverage by getting in touch.
Rugby League
Hervey Bay Seagulls and Isis Devils maintained their joint lead in the Bundaberg A Grade Premiership race after battling out their second draw against each other this season, sharing the points 26-all at Stafford Park. Brilliant second rower Tyrone Hopgood racked up 14 points for the Seagulls with two tries and three goals but it was not enough.
In other matches, interchange player Malcolm Lambell bagged a double as Across The Waves notched their second straight win, defeating Wests 32-22, and Easts ended their long drought against Brothers, getting home 32-24.
Miriam Vale suffered their first defeat of the season in the Northern Districts League, being pipped by an Andrew Filo inspired Avondale 37-34, while South Kolan staved off an improved Gin Gin 32-26.
Rookie Curtis Janke kicked four goals but Brendan Murchie was Best on Ground as Across The Waves consolidated second position in the AFL Bundaberg/Wide Bay Senior division with a 16.6 (102) to 14.9 (93) victory over cross-town rivals Brothers Bulldogs in a fierce Bundaberg local derby.
Bay Power joined the Bulldogs in equal-third place with Ben Driscoll notching six goals and Tim Krohn picking up five in a Best on Ground performance in a 23.17 (155) to 6.5 (41) buffeting of minnows Maryborough Bears.
Rockhampton Rockets and Cyclones each completed their tough weekend road treble with a perfect record in the Queensland Basketball League with good wins over hosts Bundaberg on Sunday. Bundaberg Bulls were beaten by the Rockets 91-80 with their star US import Matt Hanson restricted to 23 points. Reggie Golson top scored for the Rockets also with 23 points, but their slightly superior depth across the board came to the fore.
Bundaberg women's side the Bears were blown away 101-68 with their newest American import Yvonne Turner amassing 24 points, but it was not enough with the Cyclones proving far superior with Tegan Cunningham and Daphanie Kennedy each chalking up 25 points.
Cities will chase the Premier League double after defeating Hervey Bay in both the men's and women's semifinals on Sunday. Young gun Joel Latham notched up a double and his elder brother Brody also starred in their men's 4-0 victory, while a Sarah Walters goal enough to get their women home 1-0 and keep their title defence on track.
But their tasks will not be easy in the grand finals against Granville Tigers and Wallaroos respectively. Seven times premiers Granville edged out Bundaberg Rovers 4-3 in the semi's, while Belinda Kenny grabbed a hat-trick as Wallaroos knocked out Granville Rovers 4-0.
The nightmare continued for Bundaberg Spirit in the State League, suffering a 6-1 drubbing at the hands of Queensland Academy of Sport in Brisbane on Sunday. Their Youth Division side turned in a much more competitive performance but they were still beaten by QAS 2-1.
Locally, Nick Maas increased his big lead on the Golden Boot standings, bagging a hat-trick to spearhead Diggers to an 8-1 demolition of Alloway in the Bundaberg Premier League, while ATW edged out Moore Park 2-1 and Bingera and Brothers-Aston Villa battled out a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile Alice Tucker notched a double as runaway Ladies League Division One leaders Moore Park powered on at the expense of Villa 3-0, and struggling 10-times defending premiers Bingera showed a glimpse of their best with a 5-0 whitewash of ATW.
Wide Bay Thundercats endured a mixed bag in the second round of the Queensland Netball League in Cairns on the weekend, beating Whitsunday Leopard Sharks 56-25 and Steelcats 45-32, but then losing to Capricorn Claws 59-32 and Marlin Coast Pumas 49-36. Defender Donita Staines, centre Natasha Cross and attacker Ruth Mathiesen were their best over the two days.
Alloway Blue accounted for Across The Waves Blue 64-21 in the only Bundaberg Division One match.
Convincing Talk, owned and trained at Bribie Island by Chris Riordan, scored a narrow win to pay $2.35 in the Bundaberg Cup Final on Saturday. The race is the premier event on the Rum City calendar, and Convincing Talk used the inside box to full advantage to win by a half-length from Clarrie Early ($9) with another outsider Oh Sweet Pee ($7.50) a further four lengths away in third position.
Ray Gatti of Glasshouse Mountains was the only trainer to take out a double on the afternoon, with Emmy Keogh (Maiden) and Be My Baby (Best Eight). Local trainers Gary Thorpe and Ron Brook were also among the winners with Ranger Thomas (Fifth Grade) and Mon Reece (Fourth and Fifth Grade) respectively.

by Keith Halderman, History News Network
On the October 5th episode of the Colbert Report the comedian did a story on the drug war in Mexico. The piece highlighted the fact that Mexican journalists are being intimidated by the drug cartels and featured a discussion with National Public Radio correspondent John Burnett. Judging from what Burnett had to say maybe it would be a positive development if journalists stayed out of decisions about drug policy.
First Burnett made the argument that consumers of Mexican drugs were responsible for the violence instead of putting the blame where it certainly belongs on those who support drug prohibition. Unlike Mexican cocaine there is no economic violence associated with Mexican tequila, the difference being that one is illegal and the other is not. The users are not the ones who created the black market with its attendant mayhem.
It is the people who support the current policy, like Burnett, who have the blood on their hands because the bottom line is that if drugs were legal tens of thousand of people recently killed in Mexico would be alive today. Drug prohibition does not actually keep people from using drugs; in fact there is considerable evidence to suggest that it encourages greater consumption, therefore in reality the laws are merely a symbolic statement. Anyone who says drugs should remain illegal is in effect saying that my symbolic declaration of disapproval is more important than the lives of those people killed by the policy.
The NPR hack also says repealing alcohol prohibition in 1933 did not end organized crime. However he neglects to mention the ending the ban on spirits dramatically lowered the amount of violence associated with their use and criminals were able to shift their activities to narcotics only because those substances remained illegal. Burnett's contention seems to be that the measure legalizing marijuana in California will make things much better but it will not make things perfect therefore it should not be passed.
Lastly, even though there is absolutely no evidence that using marijuana impairs cognitive ability Burnett still repeats that slander. Unfortunately in the coming weeks before Californians vote on whether or not to legalize Marijuana we can look forward to many more examples of shoddy journalism, ignorant prejudice and spurious claims. As Jacob Sullum points out some very intellectually bankrupt arguments to oppose the measure are already beginning to appear. These include among others the ludicrous idea that it will not produce any revenue, the false contention that it will change the present laws against impaired driving, and the absurd notion that employees will have the right to use marijuana on the job. Sullum concludes by reminding us that, "if the nightmare scenarios described by Proposition 19's opponents come to pass, the rest of the country will learn from California's example. And if they don't, that also will be instructive, which is why federal drug warriors are so determined to defeat the initiative."

Make Heads Turn With Mario Sound Effects
Is your life a video game? If not, you can certainly role play and pretend it does. In this case, you can pretend to be the most famous Nintendo character in gaming history, Mario!
Each button on the keychain corresponds to a familiar sound effect in Super Mario games.
There are six sound effects available:
- Coin
- Start Music
- Extra life
- Jump
- Grow
- Death Music
If you aren't sure sure how you can use them for maximum effectiveness, which is highly impossible, here are a couple of suggestions:
- Grow SFX — After finishing a bowl of mushroom soup
- Jump SFX — Jumping with your legs apart with one hand above the head
- Death Music — When you fall while executing the jump above
So there's no reason for you to get one of these and start annoying everyone around you today.

A shuin is an autograph and a seal (stamp) given to worshippers to Buddhist temples (Shinto shrines) in Japan. The autographs and seals are often collected in books called shuinchō that are sold at temples (shrines).
The shuin is different from a commemorative stamp. When we want to get it, we need to worship a principal image in first. If you cannot guarantee that you will worship a principal image despite your creed, you should never be allowed to collect the Buddhist plume by yourself.
Please place emphasis on your creed and others' one.
