The Queensland Reds have denied reports star Japanese recruit Ayumu Goromaru has already committed to leaving the Super Rugby franchise at the end of the season to join French glamour club Toulon.
A spokesman for the Queensland Rugby Union said overnight claims from French TV station Canal Plus that Goromaru has agreed to a one-year contract with the reigning European champions were "not true".
Fullback Goromaru, who became a Japanese cult hero for his efforts at last year's World Cup, is understood to have attracted strong interest from overseas clubs but is yet to decide where his future lies beyond his current one-season deal with Queensland.
Both the Reds and Goromaru intend to discuss the possibility of extending his time at Ballymore once the 29-year-old has fully settled in Brisbane and begun playing regularly.
A French newspaper last week named him as the world's highest-paid rugby player, claiming he is earning a staggering 200,000 euros ($A315,000) per month.
Most of that would be from sponsorships and endorsements in Japan, as well as his wage from Top League club Yamaha Jubilo.
But since the Japanese and European seasons overlap, Goromaru would have to sacrifice playing at home – where his commercial value is strongest – in order to take up any offer from Toulon.
Goromaru has only played 11 minutes in Reds colours, coming off the bench for a brief cameo in the team's final pre-season trial match on Friday.
Once fit, he is a certain starter, meaning incumbent No.15 Karmichael Hunt will have to find another position, most likely in the centres.
The Reds are already losing one key player to Toulon next year – reigning club best and fairest Liam Gill, who last week announced he will depart for France at the end of the season, but didn't name which club.
Former Queensland players Quade Cooper and James O'Connor, as well as Wallabies centre Matt Giteau, are also contracted to Toulon.

- Not to be confused with Christine.
|Please help improve this article or section by expanding it.
Further information may be found on the talk page.
Christina (クリスチーナ, Kurisuchiina) is a character in Flower, Sun, and Rain. He is a pink crocodile kept as a pet by Toriko Kusabi. Most chapters in the game conclude with a brief cinematic where Kusabi asks characters previously met by Sumio Mondo for help finding Christina, who escapes Kusabi's Flower, Sun, and Rain hotel room early in the game.
As shown in Pre-Lunatics, Tetsugoro Kusabi owns a keychain that resembles him and has a picture of him with Toriko.
Appearance and personalityEdit
Christina is able to speak with Kusabi, and admits he is ashamed of being pink; he also resents Kusabi for taking advantage of this by giving him a girl's name. Before revealing he can speak, the player likely assumes Christina is a female crocodile, the surprise being kept by the game's instruction manual which refers to Christina as "it," and Mati Sding who refers to the crocodile as a "she."

The organization serves the Church worldwide to promote the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Samaritan's Purse Statement of Faith:
* We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. (1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:15-17)
* We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; John 10:30; Ephesians 4:4-6)
* We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood on the cross, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. (Matthew 1:23; John 1:1-4 and 1:29; Acts 1:11 and 2:22-24; Romans 8:34; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 2:5-11; Hebrews 1:1-4 and 4:15)
* We believe that all men everywhere are lost and face the judgment of God, that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation, and that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, repentance of sin and faith in Jesus Christ results in regeneration by the Holy Spirit. (Luke 24:46-47; John 14:6; Acts 4:12; Romans 3:23; 2 Corinthians 5:10-11; Ephesians 1:7 and 2:8-9; Titus 3:4-7)
* We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose indwelling enables the Christian to live a godly life. (John 3:5-8; Acts 1:8 and 4:31; Romans 8:9; 1 Corinthians 2:14; Galatians 5:16-18; Ephesians 6:12; Colossians 2:6-10)
* We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of eternal life and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation and eternal punishment. (1 Corinthians 15:51-57; Revelation 20:11-15)
* We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in the Lord Jesus Christ and that all true believers are members of His body, the church. (1 Corinthians 12:12, 27; Ephesians 1:22-23)
* We believe that the ministry of evangelism and discipleship is a responsibility of all followers of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; Romans 10:9-15; 1 Peter 3:15)
* We believe God's plan for human sexuality is to be expressed only within the context of marriage, that God created man and woman as unique biological persons made to complete each other. God instituted monogamous marriage between male and female as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. For this reason, we believe that marriage is exclusively the union of one genetic male and one genetic female. (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5-6; Mark 10:6-9; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9)
* We believe that we must dedicate ourselves to prayer, to the service of our Lord, to His authority over our lives, and to the ministry of evangelism. (Matthew 9:35-38; 22:37-39, and 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; Romans 10:9-15 and 12:20-21; Galatians 6:10; Colossians 2:6-10; 1 Peter 3:15)
* We believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end; and that we must have concern for the physical and spiritual needs of our fellowmen. (Psalm 139:13; Isaiah 49:1; Jeremiah 1:5; Matthew 22:37-39; Romans 12:20-21; Galatians 6:10)

Family letters, photos, clothing, Victorian furniture and household objects can all be seen in their rightful places, where their owners left them.
Rufford Abbey & Country Park
Rufford Abbey Country Park is set in 150 acres of historic parkland, woodland and gardens in the North Nottinghamshire "Dukeries". This peaceful and beautiful site features the ruins of a medieval monastery, a contemporary craft centre, gardens, woodland walks, children's play village, sculpture trail, and a lake.
The Workhouse, Southwell
Follow the path trodden by hundreds of paupers in the 19th century at The Workhouse (National Trust property). Explore the segregated work yards, dayrooms, dormitories, master's quarters and cellars using the audio guide, based on archive records, to bring the 19th century inhabitants back to life in the empty rooms.
D. H. Lawrence Heritage Birthplace
See the first home of D. H. Lawrence where he was born on 11th September 1885. Today the museum is an astounding re-creation of a Victorian family home, which is brought to life through informative friendly guides. The museum lets you explore the very heart of working class Victorian life through the home of the Lawrence family.
Nottingham Castle
Situated on a high rock, Nottingham Castle commands spectacular views over the city. The castle was built by William the Conqueror's son after the Norman invasion, the first incarnation of the Castle being built in 1068. The history of Nottingham Castle is chequered with sieges, murders and intrigue – it was known as the Legendary home to the Sheriff of Nottingham, Robin Hood's mortal enemy. When the castle was destroyed after the Civil War, it was replaced by a magnificent ducal mansion in 1674. Then in 1875 it was converted into the first municipal museum and art gallery outside London. Award-winning cave tours tell all the history and take you down into the passageways and tunnels beneath the building.
Newark Castle
Newark Castle has stood proudly on the banks of the River Trent for nearly 900 years – with now only one and a half sides of the castle remaining which includes the oldest part of the castle, a large gatehouse. The castle was built in 1133 by Alexander, Bishop of Lincoln, and it remained a seat of the Bishops of Lincoln until 1547 when King Henry VIII took it for the Crown.
Kelham Hall & Country Park
Kelham Hall & Country Park is a magnificent Victorian house, built in 1863, set within 44 acres of gardens and parklands and located in the heart of Nottinghamshire.
It has a rich history as the ancestral home of the Manners-Sutton family, along with its use as a theological college for an Anglican Order of Monks. The distinct design features of renowned architect Sir George Gilbert Scott make it a fascinating place to visit.
Belvoir Castle
The hilltop setting commands stunning views over the Vale of Belvoir, with glorious gardens and of course the fascinating magical castle to explore - there's something for everyone of all ages. Inside the castle you will find many notable collections, from the military treasures in the guardroom to the stunning staterooms with their impressive period art, tapestries, furniture and sculpture. In contrast to the grandeur of the State Rooms, the Old Kitchen and Bakery will fuel your imagination of 'below the stairs' life in 1825. Belvoir Castle has limited opening times - therefore it is best to check their opening times/dates before visiting.
Holme Pierrepont Hall
This fascinating Tudor House, nestled in tranquil country settings, was built in 1500 by William Pierrepont and is the oldest brick building in Nottinghamshire. Still occupied by descendants of William Pierrepont, the manor house today houses a vast array of portraits and valuable furniture which has been passed down through the centuries. As well as the historic building itself, the gardens surrounding the property command attention and are well worth exploring during a visit. Tours of the house and gardens are available throughout the year.
Thrumpton Hall
Dating back to the 16th century, Thrumpton Hall shares close ties with legendary local writer and romantic poet Lord Byron as it was once his ancestral home and frequently visited by his daughter Ada Lovelace. Many of Byron's posessions ended up in the home and are still there today as a result of his marriage to the 16 year old niece of former owner Mr Emerton; who had been lawyer to former owners, the Pigotts. Today, visitors can visit the historic hall and its pristine two acres of landscaped gardens. Tours of the hall can be arranged in advance.
Bolsover Castle
History lives within every inch of Bolsover Castle and it's hard not to be captured by the tales woven into its past. Dating as far back as the 11th century, the castle owes its origins to William Peveril, a knight under William the Conqueror. It suffered years of neglect until Sir Charles Cavendish built the 'Little Castle' - housing grand interiors and still a magnificent building today offering a great insight into a 17th century aristocratic retreat. It changed hands many times over the years and is now property of English Heritage, who ensure its up-keep and restoration. The Castle is perched upon a high ridge, offering stunning views of the Vale of Scarsdale.
Hardwick Hall

ALSO READIndia second most attractive renewable energy investment destination: EY Get the strategy right for integrating renewable energy into Indian grid Bihar to invest Rs 20,000 cr in 5 years to generate 3,000 Mw clean energy Renewable energy firm Gamesa invests Rs 300 crore in Andhra Pradesh India ranks second in EY renewables list
Royal Dutch Shell and SoftBank are among several global groups considering bidding for Equis Energy, Asia's largest independent renewable energy producer valued at up to $5 billion, sources familiar with the matter said.
Japanese trading companies, global pension funds and buyout firms are also in the fray to buy Singapore-based Equis, the sources said, at a time when many Asian governments are expanding the use of renewable power and renewable energy costs are decreasing.
First-round bids for Equis are due this week, said the sources.
Equis owns a portfolio of 97 projects comprising solar, the wind and hydro generation assets spread across countries including Japan, India, Philippines and Australia.
It is part of Equis Funds Group, which has raised $2.7 billion in equity from global investors for infrastructure investments, mostly in renewables, over the past five years. Equis Funds was set up by a group of senior executives, many of whom worked at Australian investment bank Macquarie Group.
Bidders are forming groups so that they can divide the portfolio as some buyers are keen to only buy certain assets, the sources said.
Other potential suitors include Japanese financial conglomerate Orix Corp, which is teaming up with Dutch pension fund APG, and a joint bid from I Squared Capital — an infrastructure investor — and a Japanese trading company, the sources said.
Shell, SoftBank, Orix and Equis declined to comment, while I Squared and APG did not immediately respond to Reuters queries. The sources declined to be identified as they were not authorised to speak to the media.

Great location and very close walking distance to the beach. Convenient location to restaurants and groceries. AND the condo had lots of relaxing blue themed items. The owners make sure you're taken care of!
We thoroughly enjoy staying in this complex. It and our third floor apartment are well cared for. There is a mix of permanent residents as well as vacationers. Our apartment was well furnished and very comfortable. Our patio faced south so we received a lot of sun for most of the day. Pedro & Laura are good to work with. Within a 10 minute walk to the beach. Walmart, Winn Dixie, Publix and other stores and restaurants all within walking distance.
Loved our month there. Owners are great, condo cute as can be and we would definitely stay there again. Many places you can walk to including the beach. You do need to be able to handle stairs since there are no elevators.
The property is comfortable and pleasant. It was clean and tidy and well-prepared for a visit. I was surprised to note that it was on the 3rd floor with only an open stairway for access since the number of the unit began with a 1. However, it wasn't difficult to access and the door was close to the stairway on an open atrium. Since I was there only for two nights, I didn't have any long-term experience.
Beautiful place! Perfect location, just minutes from shopping centers and 10min. walking to the beach. Very clean and calm. Wonderful neighborhood.
Great location and ammenities. Many beaches to choose from.

All Product Details
Beauty pageants play an outsized role in Venezuela. The country has won more international beauty contests than any other. The femininity performed by Venezuelan women in high-profile, widely viewed pageants defines a kind of national femininity. Ochoa argues that as transformistas and misses work to achieve the bodies, clothing and makeup styles, and postures and gestures of this national femininity, they come to embody Venezuelan modernity.
Marcia Ochoa is Associate Professor of Feminist Studies at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

In order to give you a better service Pepperl+Fuchs uses cookies. By continuing to browse the site you are agreeing to our
ApplicationIn manufacturing facilities, secure laboratories, company entrances, and public buildings, access rights must be controlled. This is accomplished using RFID technology.
RequirementsSuitable RFID tags in an appropriate housing style with the necessary RFID readers must be available. The entire access control system must be managed from a PC-based central control system, and, depending on the total size of the access system, centralized or decentralized control should also be possible. The control software is developed and implemented by a system integrator.
Customer advantageRFID systems are a reliable and maintenance-free option to control access rights. Authorized personnel gain access to an area by passing an RFID tag over a reader. Location-specific access rights can be granted and modified when necessary, and lost tags can be blocked.
In many cases, credit-card style magnetic swipe cards are used to control area access. This shape is considered advantageous, as company information or marketing slogans are easily printed on the cards. They are also available with embedded RFID tags, adding the distinct advantage of being non-contact and non-erasable. An RFID card can be printed with the picture of its rightful owner and used as an ID. Even elevator access rights, and, with proper mounting, entry permissions to hazardous areas like fuel storage facilities can be controlled.
Area access is controlled and logged. Who, when, and how long a person has been in a certain area is automatically logged. This information can be critically important in emergency situations.

Trading Update & Board Change
Trading Update & Board Change
VANE announces the following update on its activities:
The income that VANE has received from its gold and silver operations at its joint venture in Mexico in the first quarter of 2013 is expected to be approximately 20% lower than previously expected and lower than the previous quarter due to a combination of declining commodity prices, temporarily lower grades of gold and silver being mined (which have improved since the period end) and the appreciation in the exchange rate of the Mexican Peso against the U.S. dollar. An announcement regarding production in Quarter 4 2012 was made in February 2013.
The Company is taking all necessary steps to reduce its total costs to match its expected future income.
The Quarter 1 financial results for the Mexican operations are expected to be announced in mid-May.
As previously announced, the Directors have decided that the Company's U.S. porphyry copper exploration programme is best advanced by seeking to attract external third parties to help finance the proposed programme. This process is underway and discussions continue, but are not expected to conclude in the short term and further information will be announced as it becomes available.
In addition, the Company is now investigating its options with regards to a potential sale of its uranium assets and expects to be able to announce positive developments soon. Any sale would be structured as an asset sale, leaving any favourable outcome from the related legal action solely for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders.
As previous announced, VANE has filed a lawsuit, as principal, in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims seeking redress on financial losses as a result of the withdrawal of the lands where VANE held its mining claims on which it had invested substantially. In documents submitted to the Court, VANE represented that it invested US$8.5M in its uranium program and that the U.S. Bureau of Land Management acknowledged that the withdrawal deprived VANE of at least one mine, with a net value of approximately $80M. The DOI has filed a Motion to Dismiss and VANE is still awaiting the outcome of this action.
The Company announces that David Newton is to leave the Company to pursue new opportunities. David will remain with the Company until 31 July 2013. The Company would like to thank David for his contribution and wish him well for the future.
The Company's annual results for the year ended 31 December 2012 are expected to be announced in June 2013.

I love primitive skills...welcome to my journey.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-50074415644747061132014-12-31T23:51:00.001-06:002014-12-31T23:51:12.268-06:00Primitive Skills on TV

There are several programs I've been following this year, Dual Survival, Naked and Afraid, and Fat Guys in the Woods...they're mind candy. One particular guy that stands out is Matt Graham, from Dual Survival and Dude, You're Screwed. He is touted as a long term primitive skills expert and it shows in some of the technics he exhibits. He has been shown hunting wild boar and fishing with the dart & atlatl, spinning friction fires, foraging wild edible plants, and demonstrating ingenious building technics for shelters, beds, and rafts. Matt is a very charismatic and knowledgeable survivalist...I really enjoy him. A new show, on the Weather Channel is Fat Guys in the Woods, with Creek Stuart. I was surprised to find that I had several books by him in my library, that I revisited, after watching him in action. Basically, he takes several unskilled guys into the woods for a week with only the clothes on their backs and a few basic tools. One common theme is that it always seems to be freezing temperatures and raining, so their shelter and fire making skills are vital. Naked and Afraid really pushes it to the limit as a man and woman try to survive for 21 days, starting out naked and with only a couple tools. They get to bring a survival item, which is usually a knife or machete, a fire starter, or maybe a pot. In all these shows you see the importance of building a proper shelter, and making fire for heat, purifying water, cooking, and controlling insects. The quest for water, and later food, and the various tools, traps, and containers are instructive. My family has commented that I've been spending too much time in front of the tv lately...maybe they're right.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-9358891678573993472014-07-10T11:01:00.000-05:002014-07-10T11:04:07.693-05:00Purslane

I have been searching for this plant for awhile trying to identify it. Purslane is more of a summer plant that carpets the ground. It is described as a succulent-the stems and leaves are thicker and hold more water. The whole plant is edible raw or cooked, except the single taproot, which the plant stems out from. Walking my dog, I came across a healthy patch and sampled it on the spot. Not a bad taste. I will introduce this plant to the family by adding it to salads and steaming it with some traditional vegetables. It has more vitamins than spinach, plus Omega 3. I step out of my door and see plants for eating, cordage, medicine, and firemaking - lamb's quarters, plantain, wood sorrel, jerusalem artichoke, yucca, mullein, mint, dandelion, etc. There are a number of patches of plants I do not recognize, so that should be my next goal - identifying them. I agree with the 80/20 principle, Creek Stewart states in his book "The Unofficial Hunger Games Wilderness Survival Guide": there are hundreds of wild edible plants, focus on learning/using the 20% you see 80% of the time.Markhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-31916859478215056552014-05-23T20:56:00.002-05:002014-05-23T20:56:43.907-05:00Dandelion Roots

Every spring I make a resolution to work on my edible & medicinal plant identification and actually eat it or try it. I had always read you could eat dandelion leaves. A couple decades ago, while backpacking in Colorado, we ran low on food. I decided to try eating dandelion leaves. I boiled them and found them too bitter to eat. Today, locating some well established patches I took a digging stick and harvested some. I read in a new book, "The Unofficial Hunger Games Wilderness Survival Guide", by Creek Stewart, about boiling & eating the roots. In the past the only references I saw with the roots were as use as a coffee substitute. I washed and scraped them, and tried one raw. It was a little bitter, but not overly. I tried a raw leaf also and it was not overly bitter...yet. I'm sure that later in the season this would change. I boiled the roots in a couple changes of water, till it no longer was green. They were tender, still with a hint of green taste, but not bad. They reminded of some vegetable I've had before. I could eat a quantity of it, if I had something else to eat with it. A little salt or butter would probably be good. The roots were a little small but a large quantity could be harvested in a reasonable period of time.
One principle Mr. Stewart puts forth in his book I like is to concentrate on the 20 % of the plants that you see 80% of the time. There are hundreds of edible plants, but it is better to focus on the ones you see all the time - not the ones that require effort to locate or have poisonous look-alikes.Markhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-73917083468745022082014-04-28T23:22:00.000-05:002014-05-02T13:26:08.941-05:00Broken Bones & Shattered Stones

I have not been as active on this blog in the past couple of years. It kind of goes in spurts of ambition. There are things I want to learn, to improve upon, and practice. Some of these are: Learning to recognize and utilize more wild plants. I know a base amount, but I would like to start a pressbook, or collection in some form for demonstrations and instruction. I know willow bark contains the components of asprin, but it would be more useful to actually process it. Water is one of the most important necessities of life, but I recognize I need more practice gathering, filtering, and purifying it. I've made buckskin moccasins, but I recognize that footwear is very important for my tender tootsies and need to try coiling sandals out of cattails or inner bark. As far as containers I need to make various sizes of burden baskets. This is just a few things. There is so much more interest in survival, bushcrafting, primitive skills, prepping, and a multitude of new books and television reality shows highlighting associated skills. I am aiming at keeping this blog as primitive as possible but may have to start a new blog for bushcrafting projects.

I started making these neck knives years ago, hafting small blades into deer leg phalanges. There are four of these bones in one deer leg, and have been used for a number of purposes - fishhooks, whistles, rattles. These have been popular at rendezvous because of their unique blend of bone and stone.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-70268487689461410502013-12-18T20:45:00.003-06:002013-12-19T22:49:44.376-06:00Small Jasper Dagger

A couple of small 6 1/2 inch jasper bladed knives. It is interesting that in the past half dozen years there has been a lot of imported jasper arrowheads from India showing up at the rendezvous. They are a little blocky in the cross section, but knapped out of some nice material. So, I decided to rework some into blades and haft them into deer leg bone handles. This will look good in neck sheath.

This is the latest tomahawk. Made of knapped Texas flint, hafted into a hardwood handle. Deer hide is sewn over the handle and blade lashings. It is decorated with seed beads, horsehair locks, coyote fur, and feathers. Puruse some of the older posts to see pics of prehistoric tomahawks and read some of the history and lore behind the tool.Markhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-60516500397325026442013-01-04T22:54:00.001-06:002013-01-04T22:56:31.268-06:00English Flint Knife

One of my projects this past fall was playing with English flint. My previous experience knapping this material was unimpressive. But, this heat treated blade, percussion knapped, made a nice 6 1/2 inch blade. I hafted this blade into a knobby elk antler and wrapped with it sinew and hide glue to make a 10 1/4 inch stone knife. This type of flint, as the name implies, was used by the prehistoric peoples of modern day England to produce cutting and chopping tools, as well as projectile points. A nice website to check out is www.flintknapping.co.uk. This is the site for John and Val Lord and their prehistoric research projects.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-12730345408529891492012-05-05T16:59:00.001-05:002012-05-05T16:59:20.447-05:00Using Mullein Stems for Bowdrill Firemaking

I love making friction fires...rubbing two sticks together. There is something fascinating about spinning a shaft of wood against another to give life to a glowing ember. Some days I have to spin up a hot coal just to smell the smoldering wood...that's my aroma-therapy.

 Earlier this year I started using more mullein stalks as drills for bowdrill firemaking. Mulleins are common in the roadsides and waste areas around eastern Nebraska. They are easily recognized by their velvety rosette of leaves, woody stem, and flowerhead stalk. The woody stalk makes a good drill component when used with a cottonwood fireboard. The stem consists of a sturdy woody outer shell with a styrofoam-like inner pith. The soft inner pith and hard outer stem can be a problem sometimes. A couple of technics help...

One thing I found is that the drill has a tendency to bore through the fire board, thinning or shaving the outer
 stem near the business end helps.

Also, cannot sharpen the top of the drill to a point, to spin freely in the socket, because of the soft pithy
core. To aid this, I tied a piece of

cordage around the top of the drill so it would not easily split. Then, sharpening a
short hard wood stem to a point, I force it into the styrofoam like pith. Now I have a hard wooden top to my drill that can take more abuse and be sharpened to spin more freely in the handheld socket.

It's been over a year since I've posted...sorry. Life happens. I figure it's time.

I went out to the lakes to clear my thoughts. Some of the female cottonwood trees were already dropping downy seed heads. This normally occurs May to June. To a primitive skills practitioner, I gather the down to add to tinder nests for friction fire making. Alone, the down does not work well, combined it helps to spread the hot coal to the coarser materials. Of course, the dead dry branches work well for the fireboard and drill components of a bowdrill set.

Cottonwood trees are abundant in Nebraska, easily recognized, and useful to the early Native Americans cultures. The papery inner bark works great for tinder nests, twined into cordage, as well as survival food. The Hopi Indians, of Arizona, considered the cottonwood sacred. They used the root to carve Kachina dolls. In spring, before leaves appear, the waxy buds were boiled to make a yellowish dye pigment.

Medicinally, and I wasn't aware of this, a wash of boiled leaf buds or bark was used for burns, cuts, bruises, and skin irritations. The tannin has astringent properties tightening tissue and stopping bleeding.

Pictured top is down bursting from seed pods.
At left are female seed buds.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-28061031323460902562011-05-08T23:35:00.002-05:002011-05-08T23:45:53.708-05:00Always, More Stone Knives Spring finds me doing some knapping and making knives, processing sinew, and continuing to experiment with the marcasite and flint firemaking. Sometimes I get off work and have to fire up a bow drill hot coal just to smell the aroma of smoldering yucca. I've been anxious to get out and sleep under the stars, but family commitments have kept me busy.

It said it was one of the oldest artifacts, from Europe, of a piece of iron pyrite that was used in fire making. Over the years I had tried banging rocks together in an attempt to understand this method. Refining my understanding, I've come to understand that the form of pyrite used is what is called 'marcasite'. There are various forms of iron pyrite with varying crystal formations. The type here has a crystal starburst pattern. I received this piece, in the mail, from Storm in 2008 shortly before he passed away. You can see his work at: www.stoneageskills.com . I came across an article online that kind of put it all together for me, by Susan Labiste, on the Primitive Ways website at: http://primitiveways.com/marcasite%20and%20flint.html . Great researched article and video...check it out. Al Cornell also had an article in the Spring 2008, Bulletin of Primitive Technology, concerning experimenting with various natural spark catchers. The tinder, or spark catcher, is key as the sparks made by scraping the marcasite nodule with a sharp edged flint are very small and almost imperceptible. In truth, every time I wanted to try this technic I had to go into a darkened area so that I could see the sparks and tinder catch. I do not know if I could do this in the light of day very well. Almost all the time when I read about this technic, tinder fungus was used. As I did not have this, I slowly learned that I could substitute other natural materials. Ultimately, I have been having success with cattail or milkweed seed down. I roll this between the palms to condense the fibers into a mat. Also, I have added rotted punk wood finely crushed to the down to help grow and spread the coal once it catches. In the picture is a milkweed pod with smoldering down in it. I kind of stumbled onto the idea of rolling the seed down, and then replacing it in the pod. I strike the sparks onto the down in the pod. When it catches, I have lit a dry piece of punk wood with the smoldering down, and transferred the punk wood into an awaiting tinder nest to be blown into flame. The pod, I simply fold over and smother the coal, leaving me charred down in it own carrying pod for the next fire. This technic has taken years for me to put my mind around, connecting all the dots, ...and thanx in great part to Susan Labiste, Al Cornell, and Storm.Markhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582697883289716382.post-81479880980179219052011-04-03T15:41:00.002-05:002011-04-03T15:58:28.388-05:00Another Stone Knife Finished another stone knife, nice and sharp,...have the cuts to prove it. My posts have been sporadic over the past year as I have had to make some different choices of how I use my time. Primitive skills is still an ever present passion though. I have more ideas of projects I would like to do, than time and energy to carry them out. I have been playing with fire making with a marcassite nodule. The challenge is finding the right natural material to serve as a spark catcher, as the sparks are quite small. But I did come across an interesting article in the Bulletin for the Society of Primitive Technology. Al Cornell was addressing this same subject of spark catchers for flint and marcassite firemaking. So, I have my next project to work on, in between flintknapping sessions, and will report on this later.

He was demonstrating the firesaw technic using cornstalks as the hearth and saw...and doing it in 10-20 seconds! Also, he made a hot coal with the bow drill method using a corn cob as the drill component. Wow, I have cornfields all around me and never have considered this. So, with all the snow/moisture in the area latley I settled for purchasing some bagged corn cobs, you use to feed the squirrels, from the local plant nursery. I cleaned the dried corn from the cob and hastily gathered a used cottonwood fireboard, bow, and socket, and found a piece of dry ground under a shelter. After a couple of attempts fumbling around to get the drill situated to the socket, and tighten the bow cord, I produced a hot coal in 20 - 30 seconds. I have never read of corn stalks or cobs being used historically for firemaking, though it was an indiginous plant to the Americas. If I am correct the Indians taught the Mayflower colonists to grow corn in the New World to survive. Brandon related, as he considered the characteristics of plants that would work for firemaking, that he successfully used the stalks of yucca, mullein, sunflower, corn, bull thistle, hemp, and goldenrod. Hmmm....now I have a few more local plants to try I hadn't considered. Check out Brandon's you tube video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZCS-BIFmBQ

They excelled at fishing, learning to build fish weirs for efficiency. Axes were used to fell trees to construct living quarters and fishing vessels, as the above picture depicts from the Archeon, the living history/experimental archaeology park in the Netherlands. Reading a couple of articles concerning artifacts of recovered Danish axes, I became intrigued in their design and use. The two variations below are an antler axe, and a stone blade set in antler. A hole was bored that a slender handle could be run thru and wedged into for hafting. I was a little sceptical how the antler axe would fare chopping wood, but it did as well as the stone axe, on green wood. When it dulled, I just worked the end on across a sandstone abrader. Examples of antler axes have survived because of the properties of the bogs to preserve them. I liked the design of the stone hafted in antler. It is a little light weight but did the job felling shelter poles. It is amazing the ingenuity and variation man developed utilizing natures resources to live and survive.

They sumise that the Americas were the last of the major continents to be inhabited, starting somewhere around 10000 - 11500 BC. These time frames are changing as new evidence is found. The Paleolithic, or Stone Age, was divided into two eras in North America...the Early and Late Paleo. The Early was marked by the advent of the big game hunters of the Ice Age, using their distinctive Clovis style points to hunt mammoth and mastodon, giant ground sloths, and giant bison. Around 9000 BC the climate began to change in Nebraska as the glaciers receded, becoming much as it is today. The large boreal forests were replaced by grasslands. The large game disappeared and animals similar to today remained. New stone spear point styles emerged with this change. The points were long, narrow, unfluted compared to Clovis styles, and more lance-like...lanceolate. There were a number of varieties which archaelogists recognized as different distinct cultural groups - Agate Basin, Hell Gap, Scottsbluff, Eden, Alberta, Cody, and Frederick. They were still nomadic hunters living off the game and wild fruits and vegetables gathered, and they still had no permanent settlements or farming which marked the next phase of development. The lanceolate points pictured were found in Nebraska and classified, from top to bottom, Eden, Agate Basin, Plainview, and Scottsbluff.

The tomahawk is a much romaticized weapon of the Native Americans. Certainly it would have been utilized as a fighting weapon, but much more common and of much more use was as a chopping tool for day to day camp use. The earliest blades were made of stone, sometimes very crudely but with a serviceable edge, and was later replaced by metal axe heads traders bartered with for furs. I knapped several blades out in January and have been waiting for the inspiration to haft them.

Surrounding rock of roadway here is deformed easily in fault regions. With coal excavation, concentrated stress formed before working face will cause movement or activation of faults, so that it can lead to a dynamic disaster. In response to the determination of the influential range of dynamic pressure in coal-rock fractured fault zone, taking the specific condition of No.1193 working face in Tunbao mine as the field research object. Combined with hybrid analyses, including mechanism analysis and field measurement, the stress distribution parameter inside the surrounding rock is collected through laying the stress detector and anchor bolt in the rib. It can be concluded that the scope of dynamic pressure within the stope is about 34 m, with the peak dynamic pressure occurring at 5 m before the working face. The assessment of the dynamic pressure can optimize the design of supporting reasonably and ensure the safety of the No.1193 working face in Tunbao colliery. © 2016, China University of Mining and Technology.

Dynamic hazards being induced by mining stress always threaten safe mining in extremely steep and thick coal seams. Aimed at prevention and control of dynamic hazards in Wudong Coal Mine, Urumchi mine area, we applied a comprehensive methodology including in-situ investigation, theoretical analysis, numerical calculation and field monitoring to reveal mechanism of dynamic hazards being induced by distorted mining stress. The relevant results indicate that mining stress transfer from top of the No. 43 coal seam to sandwiched coal-rock pillar in seams (SCPS), and SCPS deformed largely towards mine-out-area due to self-gravity, which causes tensile stress in its upper position and compressive stress in the bottom. Furthermore, high stress concentration is formed in the roof of the +575 level of No. 45 coal seam, leading to substantial dynamic hazards. With fully considering existing mining scheme, coupled fracturing that we injected water firstly and then blasted rock masses have been put forward and applied as hazard-relieving measures. By means of micro-seismic monitoring and electromagnetic radiation intensity, the frequency of micro-seismic big events decrease to one time per minute from four time per time, and the peak intensity of electromagnetic radiation reduces to about 42.8 mV below the precautious line. Dynamic hazards relief obviously. © 2016, Editorial Office of Journal of China Coal Society. All right reserved.

With coal excavation, the surrounding rock of roadway in a fault broken zone might induce a dynamic hazard in a coal mine. The determination of internal critical destabilization range plays an important part in supporting parameter optimization and safe excavation. Disturbed zone of roadway at 1193 working face in Tunbao coal district was investigated in this study. In order to control the stability of rock-mass in fault broken zone, engineering geology investigation, theoretical analysis and site monitoring were used to study the range of internal critical destabilization in fault influenced broken zone. It shows that the range could be 2.30 m combined with hybrid consideration including statistical analysis of cracks and internal cracks propagation of surrounding rock with various depths. Different support loadings were given based on different destabilization ranges between roof side and coal seam side. The optimized design of roadway achieved good results in safety and efficient mining. ©, 2015, China Coal Society. All right reserved.

To better achieve fracturing effect in coal and make up for the shortcomings of blasting and water injection, a method of coupled cracking were put forward. The coupled cracking was applied to a steeply dipping and extra-thick coal layer. The caving ability(U) of coal after coupled cracking was forecasted with the method of BP neural network and the differences of U obtained with the different methods were compared. The effect of pressure relief in rock was analyzed with the method of microseismic monitoring. The coupled-cracking technology was found to be an effective to improve the caving ability and to relieve stress concentration for steeply dipping and extra-thick coal layer. The effect of coupled-cracking was evaluated with the analysis process of coupled cracking. The prediction with BP neural network still had a certain degree of reliability for the cross regional of high stage and conventional stage coal mass and the assessment of coupled cracking effect for coal mass was realized. The number of low level microseismic event rose slightly during the water injection and after water injection and blasting, but the energy caused by the decreasing of high level event was more than the energy of new low level event. The released energy after injection water was only 12.5% of the released energy before injection water. The total energy after the ground blasting was reduced by 51% compared with the energy before blasting. Coupled-cracking effect was manifested in the conversion of the small number of microseismic events of high energy into more events of low energy, which reduced the frequency and extent of dynamic disaster and promoted the slow release of high pressure. The coupled-cracking shifted the dynamic disasters to slow static release. ©, 2015, Academia Sinica. All right reserved.

After analyzing series monitoring data of micro-seismic and powered support pressure in Xinjiang, rock-burst mechanism was obtained. Thick and hard roof is main pressure source of rock-burst. Bad and delayed supporting make roof pressure transferred on coal-wall ahead of mining face. Thus, elastic energy and stress concentration formed, and fast mining speed aggravates energy and stress concentration degree. In this instance, rock-burst is inevitable because of strong burst liability of coal-seam. Based on this, rock-burst prevention principle was established that avoiding transferring hard and thick roof pressure to coal-wall. The prevention methods included broken blasting of hard roof, pressure-relief blasting of coal-body and increasing setting load of powered supports. The practice shows that prevention methods are effective.

The cause of a rock-burst in a mining face under hard and thick roof was analyzed and rock-burst prevention principle was put forward on the basis of this. Rock-burst danger period and danger area of the mining face surrounded by 3 gobs was obtained by numerical simulation and geophysical prospecting method. Micro-seismic monitoring data show that breaking height of surrounding rock in rock-burst danger period is higher than that in non-danger period, rock seismic take on a characteristic of high energy and low frequency, and mining speed should be controlled below 3.2 m/d.Roof-broken blasting between powered supports in mining face was adopted to reduce rock-burst danger degree.Electromagnetic radiation and micro-seismic monitoring show that blasting effect is perfect and coal stress ahead of mining face is reduced effectively.Mining safety in rock-burst danger period is ensured.

Geo-dynamic condition evaluation method and index for rockburst were put forward in this paper, and geo-dynamic conditions of Wudong coal mine were judged accordingly. Main influence factors and interaction relationship of rockburst were identified based on geo-dynamic method, and dangerous regions of Wudong coal mine were divided by rock mass stress state analysis system. Critical energy density of rockburst was calculated, and the impact of mining on energy density was determined by numerical calculation method at the same time. At last, dangerous regions of the unmined panels were predicted. Results show that geo-dynamic conditions of rockburst exist both in panel B3+6 at +500 m mining level and panel B1+2 at +475 m mining level; Wudong coal mine is significantly affected by I-1, IV-2, IV-4 and other fractures. The critical energy density of rockburst in Wudong coal mine is 1.29×105 J/m3, and value of energy density would increase by 31.8%-47.1% under the influence of mining. Rockburst will probably occur in high stress and stress gradient region of Wudong coal mine. Prediction work should be strengthened in unmined working face to prevent the occurrence of rockburst. © 2015, China University of Mining and Technology. All right reserved.

The main influence factors and interaction relationship of rockburst in Wudong Coal Mine were identified by geo-dynamic method, and the geo-dynamic environment of Wudong Coal Mine was also evaluated. Northern of Bogda Fault zone is strongly compressed. Wudong mining area is located on Bogda Fault system, which is strongly influenced by tectonic activity. The characteristics of fault activities and structure form at Wudong Coal Mine were determined by geo-dynamic method respectively. The primary stress of suberect and extremely thick coal seam was analyzed, the risk assessment method of rockburst based on geo-dynamic division in suberect and extremely thick coal seam had been established, and the rockburst points in southern mining area at Wudong Coal Mine had been found by this method, which mainly occur in high stress area and stress gradient zone. At last, the relationship between mining effect and rockburst was built using FLAC3D numerical method. Subsequently, the areas with rockburst risk were divided and forecasted. Research results show that large strain compression will appear in surrounding rock at Wudong minefield, and high elastic potential energy will be accumulated under the influence of structural stress, which will provide an energy foundation for rockburst. The value of elastic potential energy will increase and will be closer to the critical condition from steady-state to non-steady-state under the action of mining, thus the risk of rockburst will be increased. To avoid the occurrence of rockburst, some monitoring and rescue measures should be taken in advance in two high risk zones. © 2015, China Coal Society. All right reserved.
