A lot of people claim to be the biggest Avatar nerd/fan ever. I have devised a short quiz to tell your scale of Avatar nerdiness (the idea is to attempt these without looking the answers up):
Q1: What is the name of the first established Fire Nation colony?
I was born in the Earth Kingdom. I am a male, and I have brown hair. My real name is unknown, however I have many nicknames. I once dated Suki, and my only named ally is Aang.
Q3: The village of Jang Hui is in which nation?
Q4: What is the name of Aang's teacher when he attended school in the Fire Nation?
Q5: What is the name of the bay that connects Republic City and the Mo Ce sea?
Q6: Famous tennis player, Serena Williams, voices which character in A:TLA?
Q7: Who says this quote?:
The Avatar, and the banished prince...This must be my lucky day.
I will post all the answers in due course, or you can check your answers with Lady Lostris'.
For the record I have all episodes of A:TLA and have seen them at least three times.

The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, in London, is a sporting complex built for the 2012 Summer Olympics and the 2012 Summer Paralympics, situated to the east of the city adjacent to the Stratford City development. It contains the athletes' Olympic Village and several of the sporting venues including the Olympic Stadium and London Aquatics Centre, besides the London Olympics Media Centre. The park is overlooked by the ArcelorMittal Orbit, an observation tower and Britain's largest piece of public art. After the Olympics, the park was renamed to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Elizabeth II,[1] though it will not be an official Royal Park of London. The park occupies an area straddling four east London boroughs; Newham, Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Waltham Forest.

OK guys, what is your opinion on tattoos on a girl?
I was thinking of some cute stars on my hips or a ringlet around my wrist?
Most Helpful Guy
It's not for me, but then again, I have a tattoo myself so I can't exactly judge. If you do decide to get one, get one that matters. Mine has a great deal of significance and I can honestly say I doubt I'll ever regret it. Many other young women can't say the same thing. A young woman I know got the face of a dog on her shoulder blade. She loves her tattoo. It's about the size of a ritz cracker so it's far from a large tattoo, but if I were interested in dating her, I'd hesitate before taking her anywhere too nice where it might be exposed. Just some things you may want to consider.00|00|0

The number of spam emails that request payment and say they are from JAKO-O has increased. These emails are not from us! Please do not open the email attachment, and delete the email. Further Information >>
Do you have any questions for JAKO-O? Take a look at our FAQs first to see if you can find a quick answer to your question:
Questions about the Shop
What is the new shipping flat rate?
The new shipping flat rate, Item No. 910-031, costs 9.95 EUR and requires a minimum order value of 20 EUR per order, and it only applies to Germany and Austria.
It applies for 365 days from receipt of order confirmation. If you are paying by prepayment, the flat rate will only become available upon receipt of your payment.
Tips for ordering: Please login with your customer number and date of birth or email and password. The shipping charge will be deducted from your invoice.
Do you still have a personal customer discount?
Yes, we still have this, as follows:
- for collective purchasers
- for special families (twins/triplets etc., families with 4 children or more, and families with a disabled child).
Discounts cannot be combined.
In principle, we exclude all coupons, seminars and book price-controlled items from discounts, as well as products from the following brands: Puky and UlfBo (Theo Tours).
How do the search filter "size" and "color" work?
You can filter the list by product sizes and colors. It will then display only products in the selected size and/or color.
Where can I find the gifts table?
The gifts table no longer exists. This function was prone to a lot of errors. We could not justify rebuilding this function, because not enough customers used the gift tables, unfortunately.
Where can I find the Forum and Second Hand Bazaar?
You can find the Forum and the Second Hand Bazaar on the navigation bar on www.forum.jako-o.de
Questions about Orders
I want to add something else onto an existing order. Is that possible?
This is only possible if your order has not yet been processed or if it is a back order, as we would receive part of your order in our warehouses at a later time than the original items. Please ask us about it by phone!
I pressed submit on my order before I meant to! What now?
If you fill out a new order and submit it because you placed the order too quickly, then that will count as a new order, and it will incur new shipping charges. Please call us! We are happy to check if we can add items to your first order, which would save you money on shipping charges.
Why Can't Qiéro! and JAKO-O Orders Be Shipped Together?
Qiéro! is a JAKO-O sister company, but it does not belong to JAKO-O. It has a separate warehouse and a separate everything else "to do with it".
Can I Order FIT-Z Products at JAKO-O?
Yes! Almost all products from the FIT-Z range can also be found in the JAKO-O Shop. You can use www.jako-o.de to order JAKO-O and FIT-Z products at the same time, and just pay for the European-wide shipping charges just once!
Internet Ordering Questions
What is PayPal?
PayPal is an online payment service that allows you to pay securely, easily and quickly. PayPal accounts are free. Your bank or credit card details are only stored by PayPal. Therefore, they are not sent over the Internet every time you make an online purchase. This makes PayPal payments more secure. And: You can pay easily with just two clicks. In addition, you will usually receive the goods faster, as PayPal payments arrive quickly. The seller can then send the goods immediately.
Besides: PayPal is very popular among buyers and sellers. One in three online buyers in Germany already has a PayPal account. PayPal operates over 175 million accounts in 190 countries.
Create a free PayPal account and link it with your bank account or credit card - then your next purchase at JAKO-O will be even easier! For more information about PayPal please visit www.paypal.de or www.paypal.com
Why do I need a password to make credit card payments? What should I do if I cannot remember it?
We use "Verified by Visa" and "MasterCard SecureCode". This service protects you against unauthorized transactions and offers comprehensive security when shopping online. The payment process using your Visa card will only be executed once you enter your personal password. If you haven't set up a password yet, or if you have forgotten it, then you will need to contact your bank!
I'd like to pay by Direct Debit. How does it work?
Please have your IBAN and BIC ready when ordering. These can be found on your account statement or debit card, for example.
Why can't I see the discount on my online order (e.g. collective customer discount, twins/triplets, etc. discount, large family discount)?
Go to the online shop, click on "Enter Address", then sign in using your customer number and date of birth or email address and password. (If the login does not work, please contact us by phone.) The discount will be directly deducted from the value of the goods in the last step of the order. If you still do not see the discount, please check whether you have selected discounted products that are not eligible for further discounts.
In principle, we exclude all already discounted items (e.g. sets, such as the Body Set), coupons, seminars and book price-controlled items from discounts, as well as products from the following brands: Puky and UlfBo (Theo Tours).
Questions about the Catalog
Why does the Catalog open in a new window when I click on it, but I can't see any catalog pages to browse through?
The catalog requires Flash player version 8 or higher. You can download and install the latest version of Flash Player for free at the following link get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer/
Why can I see items in the catalog, but when I'm interested in one and I click on it, nothing happens?
The requested product page is a pop-up window. Please disable your pop-up blocker or allow pop-ups from www.jako-o.de and jakoo.blaetterkatalog.de.
Questions about Replacement Parts and Repair Services
Do I also get JAKO-O replacement parts?

Questions about Redeeming Vouchers
How do I redeem a gift voucher?

To redeem any remaining balance, please record the balance and keep the voucher reference safe. Re-enter the voucher number against your next order.
You can even redeem online coupons in our stores.
Questions about Delivery
I live in Germany and I'd like the package to be delivered to a different address abroad. Why can't I do that?
The billing address and delivery address must be in the same country for (current) tax reasons. We ask for your understanding in this regard.
I'd like to place an order with JAKO-O. What are the delivery times?
See the online store for delivery information for each item. Immediately deliverable items are usually delivered in 8-10 workdays. If we need more time, we will state this clearly. In general, the following applies: Please order in advance during vacation periods and public holidays. Delivery times using a carrier are about 4-6 weeks.
Questions about Discounts
I received a bargain discount offer through the newsletter and I order on a collective basis. Can I Combine Two Discounts?
No. It is not possible to combine discounts. The same discount applies to families with more than 4 children, families with twins/triplets, etc., families with disabled children, and collective purchasers.
Can I give my twins discount to my mother so she can buy something for the kids?
No. Discounts are non-transferable.
In principle, we exclude all coupons, seminars and book price-controlled items from discounts, as well as products from the following brands: Puky and UlfBo (Theo Tours).
Other Questions
How is the Shipping Surcharge Calculated?
It does not apply to Germany nor Austria. Furniture and bulky items are delivered via a carrier or parcel service. The standard shipping and packing fee of 4.95 EUR applies in this case, too. The following applies to the rest of the EU: We will delivery big and bulky items via carrier if the recipient assumes the carrier costs.
Is there a furniture assembly service?
Unfortunately we cannot offer this service at present.
Do you have rental boxes yet?
Unfortunately, we are not taking any more reservations this year for birthday rental boxes.
I ordered a catalog. When will it arrive?
Currently it can take up to 14 days. But you can now browse through our online catalog.

The 'Straight Fuzz' about California Cling Peaches!
Peach History
The peach belongs to the rose family
China is the original home of the peach tree
California gold miners were the first to commercially farm California Cling Peaches
There are two categories of peach, Clingstone and Freestone, distinguished by the ease with which the edible area pulls away from the stone (pit)
California Cling Peach Industry
California Cling Peaches are the variety most commonly used for commercial canning as they are exceptional in their ability to retain their flavor and consistency
Almost all Cling Peaches are processed and rarely found fresh
In 2001 California harvested 470,000 tons of Cling Peaches
Butte, Fresno, Kings, Madera, Merced, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tulare and Yuba counties produce most of the state's Cling Peaches
California's climate provides an ideal setting for peach trees, which require a chilling season followed by warmer days combined with rich soil and adequate water to produce the most flavorful fruit
Pruning is usually done in winter and thinning in spring to deliver the premium-sized fruit at harvest
Harvest commences at the end of June in the San Joaquin Valley to the south and comes to an end after Labor Day in the Sacramento Valley to the north
Peach trees are usually planted with a minimum density of 121 trees per acre, their leaves nearly touching

The Canned Advantage
Results of several nutrition studies show that canned fruit are as nutritious as their fresh and frozen counterparts
Canneries operate seven days a week throughout the harvest so that the fruit retains all the nutritional value and flavor
In most cases, peaches are canned within 24 hours of being picked, which insures that the peaches maintain nutritional value and flavor
Canned peaches retain vitamins A and C throughout their canned life
Most canned peaches have a shelf life of two years
California Cling Peaches are processed in one of four ways–sliced, halved, diced or added to fruit cocktail and mixed fruit
In 1999-2000, US per capita consumption of canned peaches was 4.4 pounds

As it advances, the borderless issue of climate change can dismantle supranational ties as countries withdraw into nationalism. Though, in the wake of the COP21 agreement, it seems like finally actions are being taken to curb climate change unilaterally. But looking at the other side of the medal, there is a surge in nationalism throughout the world, which comes with strong calls for closing borders.
This week a new study, published in Science on Thursday, revealed compelling evidence that humanity's impact on the earth's atmosphere and natural life has moved the world into a new geological epoch.
This news proves the relevance of the climate deal at last year's COP21 summit in Paris, where almost 200 countries agreed to limit global warming to less than 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century.
Not only is this deal vital to the worlds outlook for the century, it is also an impressive diplomatic achievement. Attributed to French and American leadership, the Paris Pact required countries to look past their borders and act upon the realization that climate change affects their national security.
Zooming in on the west, we can see how this vast global pact conflicts with the surge of nationalism. Nationalism has been on the rise globally, as Howard Fineman pointed out in a Huffington Post article in June last year. He writes "it turns out that globalization hasn't doused, let alone put out, the embers of nationalism. It has inflamed them."
He points at China, Russia, France's Marine le Pen, Greece and Germany. He points at the -then current- Scottish referendum in the UK. There are more examples that he leaves out. "Global and regional frameworks -from the EU to the UN- are under assault amid a renewed obsession with national identity."
Zooming in on Europe, we see that the European Union is under attack from Eurosceptics in just about every member-state. The Schengen Area, almost an institute, is being questioned during the current migrant crises. Borders are closing one after another, most recently between Sweden and Denmark and most poignantly by means of a fence in Hungary, last year.
Financial Times' editor Gideon Rachman called it a "strange revival" of nationalism in global politics in an opinion piece last year. He suggests it is incongruent with the high expectations of globalization from the 1990's on: "In a borderless world of bits and bytes the traditional concerns of nations – territory, identity and sovereignty – looked as anachronistic as swords and shields."
This is demonstrated by the rise of new international treaties in the last twenty years, which increasingly covered areas that previously were regulated only by national authorities. These particularly affect legal area's like trade and competition law, human rights and environmental law.
Environmental law is inherently cross-border and climate change accordingly asks of nations that they work together to limit it's effects.
Particularly in the European Union, member-states shifted significant and vital parts of their constitutional competences to the EU. It is not possible for member-states to regain competence in these areas without leaving the Union.
This has its effects on the member states. The incremental loss of control over national law is a common source of frustration for eurosceptic parties throughout Europe, such as the Freedom Party in the Netherlands. In December last year, the party-leader Geert Wilders promised that when becoming prime minister he will "take back Dutch sovereignty."
It has Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker worried. During the presentation of this half-year's new Dutch Union-presidency in Amsterdam, he lamented the re-introduction of borders controls throughout Europe: "We have to save Schengen and bring Schengen back to where it belongs," he told reporters. "We cannot go on with this process where day after day another member state is reintroducing border controls."
The rise of European nationalists, with their eurosceptic desire to shed the competence of EU law in their countries, is already having its effects on cross-border cooperation. Beata Thor writes about the new border controls between Sweden and Denmark on Euroscope. The border controls already have detrimental effects on the economic cooperation that was set-up for direct economic results.
So, in this atmosphere of louder and louder calls for cutting intergovernmental ties, the Paris Pact is an impressive achievement. And it is also necessary: climate change is increasingly being linked to growing levels of conflict, terrorism and soaring numbers of refugees.
Already in 2009 did the International Organization for Migration point out that the number of storms, droughts and floods have increased threefold over the last 30 years. And the United Nations estimates that over the next 35 years, climate change could create anywhere between 200 million and 1 billion climate refugees.
Writer and filmmaker Thomas Friedman pointed out the link between the Syrian civil war with the worst drought in Syria's modern history coupled with a corrupt regime amid hot geopolitical tensions. "Without water, revolution," he writes. The rest is history. Read about the Syrian civil war and it's disconcerting effects here (link).
With the rise of Syrian fighters in the troops of Daesh (ISIL, Islamic State) there is a direct link with terrorism. But it remains a difficult logical leap to connect that with climate change, though the U.S. Department of Defense declared climate change a national threat in the 2014 version of its Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR)
"The pressures caused by climate change will influence resource competition while placing additional burdens on economies, societies, and governance institutions around the world," the report states.
Climate change is seen as a root cause for terrorism, as it calls the effects of climate change 'threat multipliers.' "These will aggravate stressors abroad such as poverty, environmental degradation, political instability, and social tensions – conditions that can enable terrorist activity and other forms of violence."
Despite the currently most powerful nation in the world calling climate change a national security threat, European nationalists remain dismissive of climate change, or the need for cross-border solutions.
Front National (FN) Member of European Parliament Mireille d'Omano called the international climate talks of 2014 a "communist project," in British newspaper The Guardian. She said: "We don't want a global agreement or global rule for the environment." Huffington Post blogger Jens Martin Skibsted wrote that he once saw former FN-leader Jean-Marie Le Pen "cut a water melon in two to demonstrate that the green environmentalists were in fact hidden red communists."
Several other European far-right parties have equally dismissive stances on climate change. They are mainly concerned with xenophobia toward immigrants. This is why it is strange that they take a stance against global warming, of which the effects are predicted to cause a soaring refugee situation.
In March last year, an exercise was carried out in Delhi by the UK's foreign office and the strategic think tank CNA, in which 24 experts participated in a simulation of a world under duress of climate change effects. Participants included renowned scientists, security experts, diplomats, and retired military personnel from Asia, Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States
The participants took on the roles of major world powers – the US, China, Russia, the EU, India and the Middle East. Each of them made strategical decisions, underpinned by geopolitical motives.
These were written up in a report by CNA in December last year. Analysts of the simulation showed that it is very likely that "climate change may trigger increased nationalism and policies of internalization in developed countries." It says that in a heated world, "large-scale, climate-induced migration and displacement may impact a country's international policies, economic situation, and defining cultural attributes."
In december last year, Bangladeshi participant, the retired major general ANM Muniruzzaman told climate-related news website Climate Home that "as climate scenarios became more and more difficult and complex, I would have expected people to be reaching out and being more inclusive." The opposite happened: "the countries' reactions were just the opposite: They became more inward-looking and insular."
With climate change already happening, we can see a rise in nationalism. Despite climate change being a security threat for every nation, there is a growing call for national sovereignty, as nations have shifted their competence toward supranational organizations. If the simulation is accurate, the disconcerting effect of climate change may that nations turn more inwardly and scurry back into nationalism. This will effectively disband the hard-fought cross-border ties that international treaties have established between nations that were once at war, but that now need to fear the transcendent effects of climate change.

Airships (sometimes referred to as dirigibles, or more commonly, zeppelins) are an advanced type of aerostat, or lighter-than-air vehicle that utilizes rudders and propellers to provide maneuverability and thrust while airborne. They use large, internal 'cells' of lighter-than-air gas to stay aloft, typically helium; hydrogen was used in pre-WWII German zeppelins – only because of an American embargo on helium at the time – and was considered highly dangerous due to its flammability. Most modern airships are commonly powered by everything from solar panels (using nanotech embedded in the outer skin) and vent-style wind turbines, to thorium reactors (MSRs).
Inception and World War I (1900-1918)
The first successful flight of a rigid airship took place in Germany in 1900 with the flight of LZ 1, general and inventor Count von Zeppelin's design, which became a major influence on all future airship construction (referred to as the zeppelin-type). For the duration of the First World War, Germany (in addition to France and Italy, but to a far greater extent) made heavy use of zeppelins as scouting and bombing craft, many of which were used to make raids on Britain (in a mildly eerie foreshadowing of the Battle of Britain over twenty years later). Zeppelin raids merely incurred further wrath from the already infuriated British, and utilizing a combination of searchlights and extensive anti-aircraft batteries, they forced the German crews to seek higher altitudes to avoid AA flak, thus reducing their already poor bombing accuracy. These early zeppelins proved that their presence on the frontlines of war was a virtual death sentence to their own crews, with over a dozen destroyed when confronted by superior Allied fighter craft, namely Britain's famous Sopwith Camel. At war's end, multiple surviving zeppelins were transferred to the Allies as reparations from Germany, namely to Britain, the United States, France, Italy, and Japan.
Interwar period; major advances (1919-1937)
The interwar period saw a massive increase in use of zeppelin-type airships, largely as commercial passenger transports for transatlantic and transcontinental flights, but also inaugurated a new era of military airship construction.
The US Navy also acquired an interest in rigid airships in the early '20s, building its first, the USS Shenandoah (ZR-1), in 1923, based on a German design from WWI. They also managed to acquire another two from overseas, the British-built USS Linton (ZR-2) in 1923, and the German-built USS Los Angeles (ZR-3) the following year. These early airships were primarily test beds, and any consequent failures on their part would benefit potential follow-ons in the future. Linton crashed into Lake Michigan in 1927 after a steering failure, and following a near-collision with a mooring mast at Columbus, OH, in 1925, Shenandoah received a major refit, where her control car was enlarged and mounted to the hull, two engines were removed; the remaining three replaced by more powerful ones, and an aircraft trapeze – capable of carrying a single aircraft – was mounted on the outer hull. She continued on in an advanced training capacity for another eight years before being scrapped in 1933. The Los Angeles was also fitted with aircraft and lengthened in the late-'20s, becoming the Navy's longest-serving and most accident-free airship until the late '60s.
Britain began her own civil airship program in the mid-1920s, labeled the Imperial Airship Scheme. The first two ships, R100 and R101, were completed in 1926, and made their maiden flights to Montreal in Canada and Karachi in what was then British India (now the Federal Republic of India), respectively, the next year. These ships were each of a different design, with R100 utilizing already existing technology, while R101 served as a test bed of sorts for a new airship design. Both served to influence a follow-on, the R102 – a lengthened version of R101, with a roughly 60% greater gas capacity – completed in 1929. The original pair was twice refitted, first in early 1930 – in which both were lengthened and converted to use helium lifting gas instead of hydrogen (utilized in all future airships, with the exception of pre-war Germany) – and again in 1935, when they were again lengthened and received far more powerful engines. The fourth, R103, was completed in 1932, to a further revised and lengthened design, while the fifth and final pre-war airship, R104, was completed to yet another larger, revised design in 1935. All five made regular trips to Montreal, Karachi, Calcutta, Darwin and Sydney in Australasia and Ismailia in Egypt for several years. With the outbreak of war in 1938, construction began on a series of large, heavily reinforced airdocks in Scotland's Outer Hebrides, as shelters for the relatively fragile airships.
In 1928, the Zeppelin Company completed work on LZ-127, named Graf Zeppelin after Count von Zeppelin, for international and transoceanic passenger service. Two years later, the LZ-129, Hindenburg, was completed and immediately began transatlantic service to both North and South America. She was followed the next year by a sister craft, the LZ-130, Graf Zeppelin II, and in 1932 by the further-improved LZ-131, Bismarck. The four airships served very well in their intended roles and as Nazi propaganda in the late '30s, the latter reason of which being the only reason Luftwaffe chief Hermann Goring didn't outright order their scrapping in favor of fighter aircraft construction. The first Graf Zeppelin, however, retired and already antiquated by the outbreak of war, was scrapped and recycled into aircraft parts.
A radical new design, the metal-skinned airship, was introduced in 1929 with the US Navy's ZMC-2 (Zeppelin Metal Clad, 200,000 sq. ft. gas capacity), built by the Aircraft Development Corporation of Detroit. Her skin was composed entirely of Alclad, a highly corrosion-resistant alloy of aluminum. ZMC-2 was the only all-metal clad airship ever built for the Navy. The second generation of Navy airships was inaugurated with the commissioning of USS Akron (ZRS-4) in October 1931. She introduced an innovative design feature common in future airships – an internal hangar initially capable of carrying up to four aircraft (F9C Sparrowhawks in the 1930s; F4F Wildcats and F6F Hellcats in WWII), with a fifth mounted on an external aircraft trapeze, a concept pioneered by the Shenandoah and Los Angeles. Under the command of Admiral William A. Moffett, a strong proponent of Navy airships, Akron participated in the Fleet Problem XIII (13) exercise off the West Coast in March 1932, and managed to prove her worth not only by providing valuable scouting information to her 'team' fleet, but also by using her F9Cs to perform a surprise 'attack' on an 'enemy' carrier - the Lake Erie (CV-4) - effectively 'crippling' her. Akron had, at long last, proven that not only could airships be useful reconnaissance platforms, but their aircraft could also be used in an effective manner against a potential enemy target, thus enabling her 'team' to win the exercise. Airships had proven their potential value to the higher-ups of the Navy, who ordered that a further four be constructed. On the heels of this success, she was followed a year later by a sister, Macon (ZRS-5), built to a lengthened design, thus considerably improving her range over Akron. That same year, the US Army inaugurated its own airship program, with their all-metal-clad airship, the ZMC-1-20, up to ten times larger than ZMC-2 - similar in size to the Navy's recently-scrapped Shenandoah. A further three Navy airships, San Remon, Evans, and Calixto, built to the modified Macon design, were constructed and commissioned between 1935 and 1937. In 1938, the Army again displayed its interest in airships, this time, with their all-metal clad rigid airship program, combining the best attributes of the joint ZMC program and the Navy's new ZRCV's into a unique design that never took with the Navy: the massive ZRMCV, 2 ½ times larger than the Akrons, and capable of carrying a variety of fighter and bomber aircraft, from up to 15 fighters, to 3 B-25 Mitchells, or a single B-17 Flying Fortress or B-24 Liberator.
Buoyed by the military's success and the obvious safety of the German zeppelins as passenger ships (minus the hydrogen), air giant Pan Am ordered ten airships based on the modified Macon design for their Clipper service in late 1937. These new airships were for those who "...didn't need to get anywhere fast, but simply get there, and in a nearly unparalleled lap of luxury." Four were completed prior to US entry into WWII; the remaining six were put on hold until war's end in 1946. The three remaining German airships, Graf Zeppelin II, Hindenburg, and Bismarck, were all laid up in the United States in their hangars at Lakehurst Airdock following the outbreak of war in Europe in 1938, and remained there for the duration, stripped of identifying marks, and their hydrogen cells emptied. Of Britain's five pre-war commercial airships, R100 was laid up in the specially reinforced airdocks in the Outer Hebrides in early 1940, while R101 was sent to India to serve as a scout; R102 served in Malaya, and was present to attempt an evacuation of part of the Singapore garrison in February 1942, but was subsequently destroyed by Japanese Zeros. R103 played a major part in the North African Campaign (also called The Desert War) from 1940 to 1943 as an advance scouting and reconnaissance platform, while R104 served as a specially-modified hospital ship of sorts for the embattled Australian Army from 1939 to 1945.
Even as the final two airships of the Akron-class, Evans and Calixto, were being assembled, US Navy planners were already putting forth a new design, the ZRCV (airship aircraft carrier). It could carry up to twelve aircraft (eight were stored in an internal hangar, and two on a pair of modified retractable trapezes, which would effectively halve the launch time for such a large number of aircraft), had a helium capacity over 50% greater than that of the Akrons (10 million sq. ft. as opposed to 6.5 for the Akron) and up to a dozen .50 cal. heavy machine guns for AA defense. The first of the class, Pacifica (ZRCV-9), was completed and commissioned in the late spring of 1939, followed only months later by Norfolk (ZRCV-10).
By the late 1930s, the Navy came to the conclusion that, realistically, the aging Los Angeles would have to be replaced in the role of training airship. With this in mind, planners from the Navy's Bureau of Aeronautics introduced a smaller, simplified version of the venerated Akron design: the Fort Wayne. Even though Los Angeles remained in commission, she was used in a very limited capacity, and the Fort Wayne (ZRT-1) took over the role as official training airship from the L.A. and moved her base of operations to the West Coast upon commissioning in 1940. A second ship, the Fort McHenry (ZRT-2), completed almost exactly one year after the Fort Wayne, operated out of Lakehurst for the duration of the war as the official training airship for the Atlantic; the third, Fort Cumberland (ZRT-3) – completed in 1943 – operated out of Hawaii. Navy airship crews often referred to them as 'the Forts-class' (for obvious reasons).
World War II; the airship is re-proven (1938-1945)
Four more ZRCV's were completed by the fall of 1941, but with the attack on Pearl Harbor, the program almost literally changed overnight. Various projects deemed non-critical to the infant war effort were drastically curtailed or cancelled altogether, including the final two airships of the ZRCV program; they were each about 30% complete when their duraluminum hulls were scrapped and recycled for use in the aircraft industry – in a similar fashion to Nazi Germany's first Graf Zeppelin three years prior. Neither were assigned names and only had the provisional designations of ZRCV-15 and 16, respectively. (The hull numbers were later reused and applied to a pair of Cold War-era airships).
With the official outbreak of war, all US Navy airships had their antiquated Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk biplanes replaced with Grumman F4F Wildcats, most of which were carried for the duration of the war. In the two years prior to Pearl Harbor, the five ships of the Akron class had each made at least one transatlantic crossing to Britain, transporting – over time – thousands of tons of goods to the beleaguered island nation. The crew of Calixto (ZRS-8) was distant witness to the destruction of the British Royal Navy battlecruiser HMS Howe in the Battle of the Denmark Strait on May 24, 1941, while returning from a cargo drop at the Outer Hebrides airdocks. Multiple photographs were taken by Calixto's crew, most notably "Flashes to the Northeast, in the Denmark Strait – 5-24-1941" and "Smoke/Explosion column over the Denmark Strait – 5-24-1941." It wasn't until almost two days later that the crew learned the significance of their observations, while in airdock at Kujalleq Air Base. They held a memorial service for the men of Howe on May 27 and erected a temporary shrine on the eastern perimeter of the base (it was made a permanent and official memorial in 1955).
By the early 1942 timeframe, all but one of the ZRCV's – San Quentin (ZRCV-11) – were operating off the US Eastern Seaboard as part of a slowly growing network of anti-submarine warfare (ASW) operations against German U-boats. They operated from bases in the Bahamas, Bermuda, St. John and Ft. Cumberland in Maine, Halifax and Breton in Nova Scotia, St. John's in Newfoundland, and Kujalleq Air Base in southern Greenland. These airships formed the core of the Atlantic Naval Airship Fleet (ANAF), a major component of the US Navy's regional ASW operations. As U-boat attacks became bolder with each passing month, and with much of the US surface fleet occupied in the Pacific, the Air Fleet had its job cut out rather clearly. As American industry rushed to adapt to wartime standards, the ANAF filled a critical niche, providing the occasional escort for Britain-bound convoys and patrolling the US East Coast, on the hunt for prowling U-boats. On the Pacific side of the war, the ZRCV San Quentin and three of the Akrons – Akron, Macon, and San Gabriel – served to heavily augment the ASW forces on the West Coast as the core ships of the Pacific Naval Airship Fleet (PNAF), fending off and sinking a half-dozen or more Japanese submarines throughout the war.
By late 1942/early 1943, American shipyards were turning out destroyers and destroyer escorts like clockwork, many of which were immediately devoted to transatlantic convoy and ASW duty. But even with the now-greater availability of escort ships, the ANAF still retained its highly-valued position as a patrol and escort force, at which time the naval airship again proved itself, and in a rather unexpected way: the airships' duraluminum construction would usually present itself as a significant anomaly to enemy radar operators, who, more often than not, would mistake it as a kind of lightning storm or other natural phenomenon. This worked quite significantly in the favor of the American airship crews and their fighter pilots when hunting U-boats in the Atlantic (and on occasion, Japanese I-boats in the Pacific), being able to launch an attack and sink an enemy submarine with little to no warning proved a great tactical advantage. The product of the Army's ZRMCV program, which had produced upwards of thirty craft before the start of the war, saw service in the skies of Europe, North Africa, and the Atlantic, launching medium and heavy bombers against German positions and infrastructure on land, and occasionally joining their Navy counterparts for ASW operations in the Atlantic.
The few times a U-boat was able to actually attack an American airship, the damage incurred against the main body of the craft even by shells from the subs' deck guns was minimal, due in large part to the sheer size of the ZRCVs and their internal spaces; the control car and engines on the other hand, fared much worse. While on patrol over Scotia Bay on October 18, 1944, the Norfolk was engaged by submarine U-768 in a nighttime sneak attack sixty-one miles southwest of St. John, Maine. Firing a series of flares that illuminated the giant airship plain as day, automatic fire from the sub's AA gun damaged the control car, while the deck gun destroyed one of her port engine pods. After dropping its own flares to illuminate the marauding U-boat, responding .50 cal. fire from the airship silenced the submarine's guns, while one of her Hellcat pilots launched at less than forty feet off the water, skimming the wavetops to deliver a killing blow that sent U-768 to the bottom of Scotia Bay. Norfolk moored at the St. John Airdock (which is today in civilian use) the next morning for 'patch-up work' before heading east to Halifax for full repairs. She returned to service just over a month later.

Apple Forces Staff To Lie About Reception Issue, iOS 4 Deletes Music
Apple has forced their employees in Apple Care departments to sign this paper. Also they were made to read an article and sign another copy in the electronic form which lists the steps all Apple Care staff has to take when users complain about their iPhone. You might have read about these steps on this BGR leak.
The bottom half is not shown because it had the employee's signature. "People would kill to get this screenshot", I was told by my source which we nicknamed "Alpha". [If you are from Press, contact me so I can send you the screenshot in original resolution.]
The quotes you see in the middle of the screenshot are from Steve Jobs himself and according to Alpha it is all a big lie. His co-workers seem to agree with him.
According to Alpha, ".. it basically says that we have to tell customer that our antenna issue is not an issue and to hold your iPhone not from the bottom left corner, and also mentions that we will not give out bumpers". He goes on to say that, "these are direct pitches our agents have to tell people who call in to Apple Care… and all of it is complete fucking bullshit". Oops!
What went wrong With iPhone 4? Will iOS 4.0.1 fix the problem?
Alpha explains the problem is part hardware and part software. He goes on to state that the signal needs to get boosted from within, thus from the software side they will be able to fix it with iOS 4.0.1.
Being an Apple employee, he has updated to iOS 4.0.1 (which is still in beta) along with many other employees and can confirm the signal boost. Sadly, the reception issue is still there.
However, he clarifies in the end by stating that, "but it is just the beta release for testing. It is not the final product, therefore do not make it look like I am saying it is not going to work. So far it is not working, that is all I can say".
As for the hardware part, it is a design flaw. After all, "that is what happens when you use metal around an iPhone as an antenna, the person's hand is going to touch that metal and conduct the electrical signals."
What is the deal with iOS 4?
People are so frustrated with the problems that most of the calls are not even about reception issue, they are also about iOS 4 deleting the entire Music collection from the PC, I was told. He explains that some users who have upgraded to iOS 4 are reporting that their entire music library has vanished, not only did they get deleted from the iPhone, but also from iTunes and the PC/Mac HDD.
He, along with other iPhone Apple Care staff has no idea why this is happening but goes on to say that "This should never happen ever!".
The iPhone Apple Care Support staff are themselves frustrated, at one point he took over some of the calls because, "how do you pitch a teenage girl and tell her that all your music is gone and there is no way of getting them back unless you import all those CDs back to your PC/Mac". He asks me again, "how do you pitch that to anyone?".
If you purchased music from iTunes, you are on the safe side. Apple has record of all purchases and they will grant you all your media back. Those who imported their music collection from CDs, Apple has no record of that, so it is just gone.
What To Do And What Not To Do?
In short, if you are having reception issue there is no need to call Apple Support, nor do you need to visit the local Apple shop. The paper in the screenshot above which every agent in Apple Care had to sign has a clear message from Steve Jobs to the customers, the issues you are having is actually not an issue.
Alpha told me to, "Let people know that if they call in about this issue there is nothing we can do. I mean we really want to do something but there is nothing we can do at this point."
He also says that some customers came down to yelling and ripping our agents. This made the agents upset because people treat them like trash.
He continues, "At one point some agents came together during a break and all agreed that iPhone should not have shipped because at the moment it is not a complete item from Apple."
So what can you do? Nothing except wait for the next update from Apple.
In short, if you were planning a protest against Apple staff, note that they are just employees and are not responsible for the issue. According to Alpha, "There is no one to blame but Apple. You can't even blame AT&T because it is Apple's error".
Extra Note from the editor: About MS Exchange
This has nothing to do with the leak but I wanted to clarify because many people were asking how can an Apple employee use MS Exchange on his work computer? If you are not sure what I am talking about, see the screenshot below.
When I asked him about this, he boasted that almost everyone at work are using it. In fact, he uses it at home too. He further states that using Microsoft products on Macs are a norm. He asks me, "Tell me a program from Apple that is like MS?", he then continues, "because I will tell you right now that 99.9% of PC/MAC users know how to use mail program from MS because they have been around forever".
Finally he brings the topic of competition by saying, "It is not about competition between Windows and Mac any more to the point where we separate. Those were back in 1990s. Today a lot of programs are cross compatible to reach a wider range of people."
In the end he states, "Just because your company is a competitor of Microsoft does not mean you are anti-Windows or anti-Microsoft." We seem to agree with his rationality.

(Tanacetum parthenium)
extracted by tincture in food grade alcohol
Emmenagogue / Carminative / Vermifuge / Anti-inflammatory
Plant Description/History:
Although native to the Balkan mountains of eastern Europe, Feverfew is found growing in many other European areas, also in both North America and South America. References to the plant were found in the works of ancient Greek physicians.
Constituents-Chemicals & Nutrients:
parthenolide compound, sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoids, camphor, bornyl acetate, camphene and volatile oils
The constituents in feverfew decrease the release of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in joints that cause arthritis and inflammation and are effective in treating migraine prophylaxis. Feverfew limits the inflammation of blood vessels in the head by the release of serotonin and prostaglandins, inhibiting blood platelet aggregation and the biosynthesis of prostaglandins that cause inflammation found with migraines.
Feverfew is used for other ailments including arthritis, fevers, muscle tension and sciatica nerve pain as well as used to lower blood pressure, lessen stomach irritation, stimulate the appetite, improve digestion and kidney function. Some studies have shown Feverfew's efficacy in the treatment of dysmenorrhoea, sluggish menstrual flow, coughs, wheezing and difficult breathing, pain and swelling caused by bites of insects and vermin.
Dosage for Adults:
For migraine headache up to 30 drops three times daily with a glass of warm water for up to 3 weeks.
Feverfew may block iron absorption over time. Pregnant women should not take Feverfew because it may make the uterus contract. Breast feeding mothers and children should not use Feverfew as it may block essential iron absorption for growth. Do not take Feverfew in combination with anti-coagulant (blood thinning) medication such as warfarin. When taken over a period of several weeks, Feverfew may cause gastrointestinal distress, mouth ulcers, and antiplatelet action.

|exporting and importing Lucene documents
|Fri, 09 Dec 2005 16:51:25 GMT
We build indexes, then share those indexes (along with files and database records) with our client installations. We now have multiple clients, and they are beginning to say things like, "I'd like this group of documents here, and this little bit over here, and ah .... yea that document there too, but not all that other stuff." Damn clients. We need to keep our installation simple and fairly idiot proof. I don't want them to spend hours/days building indexes at installation time. What I would like to do is have a primary index with all documents pre-build at our office, then pull select lucene documents out of that index, and build a second that would be ready to send to our client. Is this going to be any more efficient than just building a new index from scratch? Is there a better method? Such as duplicating the index and deleting ids that I don't want in the new index? Thanks, Dan

Ikorodu King's Wife Endorses Abike Dabiri Erewa For Lagos Governor
March 15, 2014 – Ikorodu King's Wife Endorses Abike Dabiri Erewa For Lagos Governor
Abike Dabiri dreams of becoming the first female Governor of Lagos State got another boost, as Oba's wife says she will make a good governor. The wife of the Ayangburen of Ikorodu, Oloori Muyibat Oyefusi, says Dabiri-Erewa has all it takes to be a governor in Lagos State and should be considered for the post.
Oyefusi spoke at a town hall meeting in Ikorodu, organised by Dabiri-Erewa to distribute various empowerment items to members of her constituency. The legislator, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), represents Ikorodu Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.
Oyefusi said that the massive empowerment programmes that Dabiri-Erewa has consistently organised for the constituent distinguishes her as a hardworking humanitarian who is accountable to her people.
"Dabiri-Erewa has all it takes to be a capable governor. She has our support and we urge the party to give her the slot. We also want the governorship candidature of the Lagos APC zoned to Ikorodu,'' the monarch's wife said.
Oyefusi commended the lawmaker for her outstanding gifts and empowerment scheme, which provided means of livelihood to many families.
In her address, Dabiri-Erewa prayed that the dream of having a female governor for Lagos would one day come true.
"Our dream for a female governor in Lagos will come true but will require support from all,'' she said.
On the empowerment schemes, she said that when she was voted into the House of Representatives, she resolved to do what she could, to ensure a better living for her people.
"The people are not asking for too much. All they need is to make a living. We identified individual and group needs in purchasing the empowerment items.
The scheme is ongoing and will continue, and it is entirely free,'' Dabiri-Erewa said.
Over 500 residents of the Ikorodu Constituency received the empowerment items. Items distributed include 20 tricycles, 20 Thermocool Deep Freezers, nine generators and 10 grinding machines. The sewing machines, wheelchairs, block moulding machines, fishing nets, water pumps, wheel barrows, shovels and some food items were also distributed to some constituents.
A former Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Chief Abiodun Ogunleye, among several APC chieftains in the state, were present at the programme.

CALGARY, Alberta — Here is the expected lineup that the Ducks (46-18-7) will start with against the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night at Scotiabank Saddledome. Jonas Hiller (28-11-6, 2.39 GAA, .914 SV%) will get his second straight start after making 28 saves Sunday in a 6-2 win over Florida. Patrick Maroon (lower body) sat out the third period against the Panthers but will be in. Francois Beauchemin won't play as Coach Bruce Boudreau wanted to rest him for a game. Sami Vatanen will play his second in a row since returning from Norfolk (AHL).
Teemu Selanne-Ryan Getzlaf-Corey Perry
Patrick Maroon-Mathieu Perreault-Kyle Palmieri
Andrew Cogliano-Saku Koivu-Jakob Silfverberg
Rickard Rakell-Nick Bonino-Tim Jackman

Luca Sbisa-Stephane Robidas
Bryan Allen-Sami Vatanen
— And here is the expected lineup for the Flames (30-35-7), who embarrassed the Ducks, 7-2, when they met in Calgary two weeks ago and have won five of their last seven. Karri Ramo (13-10-4, 2.54 GAA, .912 SV%) will get the nod in goal. Top-line forwards Michael Cammalleri and Mikael Backlund are red hot as Cammalleri has 10 goals and 16 points in his last 12 games while Backlund has four goals and five assists in his last eight. Markus Granlund (upper body), David Jones (upper body) and Dennis Wideman (upper body) are out but youngsters such as Joe Colborne, Paul Byron and Tyler Wotherspoon are taking advantage of more playing time.

New data on violent deaths shows that all people are safer living in diverse places—but especially White people.
White supremacy is not an unfortunate stain on an otherwise clean democracy. It's terribly, terrifyingly normal.
Perhaps the most compelling reason to change our ways is that Earth needs our help. In our responsibility to respond, might we unite in common cause?
Now is the time to push for better health care. Here are three modest, winnable first steps.
Forget minding your own business. Getting engaged leads to great rewards for both ourselves and others.
Even when sensible adults finally take back government, "back to normal" is not what we want.
Some of my anger at the recent actions of white supremacists comes from acknowledging my own capacity for ugliness.
For the new movement to gain national traction, it will need to draw in poor and working-class Whites.
From the Current Issue
What is a "just transition," anyway? Bill McKibben asks Jacqueline Patterson, the director of the NAACP Environmental and Climate Justice Program.
A few law enforcement agencies have adopted new guidelines to treat trans and gender-nonconforming people more fairly. But it's just the first step.
Truth-telling needs to come first before we can begin to heal the racial divide and redress past harms.

Theory of Deterrence and Individual Behavior. Can Lawsuits Control File Sharing on the Internet?
The music and movie industries have recently added individual consumers as the target of the file sharing lawsuits. It is often questioned why the industries use substantial resources to fight in the courtrooms instead of making better and more affordable products. In this article, we first analyze the reasons of the industry behavior suggesting that the court strategy may be in fact more effective, at least in the short term, than it should be based on pure economic calculations. However, the empirical evidence seems to imply that lawsuits fail to send a strong signal to individuals about the societys supposedly negative attitude towards file sharing. General deterrence from the threat of being sued does not help in the end either because people are risk seeking in the face of making a decision between a certain and probable loss. In conclusion, we argue that the court strategy cannot be used to establish any social norm with a long lasting effect on individual behavior as long as the peer pressure works towards the opposite direction.
