As some of you might remember, Nick gifted me the unluckiest hunting trip of my life last year. The photo above is of a much larger Leghorn attempting to wedge himself through the too-small back window of a Toyota Tacoma while Kevin Brittingham gazes on in a mixture of frustration, boredom, and glee. In the year since, Nick's gotten much smaller and my truck has gotten much larger. I assumed that the story of that weekend would be the ultimate "sitting 'round the fire" trump card. Recently, I was what we Texans call "Out Whatatburgered" by a coworker. The whole story is pretty grand. It ends with the friend of a brother of a millionaire calling a rancher at 2:00 AM at the behest of a game warden to explain how he managed to double tap a calf on the other side of a fence. And that was just the first night. The story extends for another week, and should serve as a lesson of sorts to the hunters among us. The images after the jump are not for the squeamish and perhaps NSFW depending on your workplace . . .
After their tragic night, everyone went to bed, but as my coworker hadn't been so stupid as to kill a neighboring calf, he slept the kind of sleep befitting the innocent. He woke up early to get out to the blind, and before long had a doe in his sights. Using his trusty .308 WIN and some Monarch 150 gr. Soft Points, he squeezed off a shot and watched in horror as the doe ran off. He enlisted the help of his buddies to track her, and while they found some blood and hair, there wasn't enough of a trail to track her. After a few hours, they gave up.
Fast forward a few days, and the brother of the millionaire forwarded the picture above to my coworker. His game camera sends him text updates when there's movement at the camera, and right there, as clear as day, is a doe with a fantastically large hole in her shoulder. It seems too far fetched to be possible, and despite my best efforts to goad him into confessing a lie, my coworker is staying strong. He recognizes that feeder and the land. He even pressed the brother to let him know that I'd be writing this article, and the that the time for messing around has passed. They're both swearing that it's the truth. I even reverse Google image searched it, and I can't find a thing.
The obvious question then becomes "how" and the answer is that a lot of things have to go wrong. Without actually having this deer down in front of me for further analysis, all I've got is SEWAG. First among them is that the deer has to be standing just so. As you can see, the wound is high on the torso, and based on the trauma, I'm going to call that the exit wound side. Hunt long enough, and you'll see similar traumatic wounding. The difference is that it's normally seen on a dead deer. Looking at the anatomical drawing above, which came from this thread on www.kentuckyhunting.net, you can see that the exit wound lines up with the location of the shoulder blade, the top of the lungs, and spinal cord.
In my opinion, the only way that deer is still operational days later is that the bullet had to pass from one side to the other contacting the minimum number of hard deer parts on the way. This task becomes exponentially easier with solid or FMJ bullets which are designed to hold together in the face of much adversity. Soft points? Eh, not so much. This bullet should have expanded, but to do something it had to hit something that would put up some sort of resistance.
What isn't shown in that drawing is the articulation of that front shoulder. As the leg moves, so does the blade. Your cat and dog have similar bone structures, and you can feel how theirs move fore and aft. Assuming that the blade was moved forward all the way, the bullet would be passing through thin hide, rib meat, and literally half an inch of space between the lungs and spinal column. It isn't a far stretch to say that he might have squeezed the shot when the deer's blade was flexed forward and it had completely exhaled. I can't say for sure. Either way, its a "thread the needle" shot.
This unlucky path couldn't continue the whole way though. Based on the wounding, the bullet expanded at some point. Based on the size of the wound, and the fact that it is still mobile, I'm guessing it hit the shoulder blade on the way out, causing the bullet to finally mushroom and take some shoulder with it. I'd vote that it hit a rib on the way out, but if that was the case, the deer would have eventually expired from a pneumothorax. I'm going to leave it to those more medical than me, but I can't imagine that the lungs will keep inflating with a golf ball sized hole in the chest cavity. It is just every so slightly believable that the .30 cal holes poked on either side weren't enough to completely collapse both lungs.
This isn't a one in a million shot. The odds are closer to one in a billion. This is nearly perfect shot placement with a thoroughly adequate cartridge, and a fairly decent bullet. If he'd taken this shot with a .223 or used a solid copper projectile, I'd be standing at his desk chastising him daily. I'm a huge Barnes TSX fan, and I don't even think that the copper wonders could have made the difference here. This is simply a case of everything going wrong. One full inhale, a step in the other direction, or one inch lower, and this deer would be in a freezer somewhere.
This is one of the weirdest photos I've ever seen, and if it turns out to be a hoax, I'm going to feel very foolish. Even if it is fake – and I'm inclined to believe it's real – there's a powerful lesson here. Even if you do everything right, things can still go wrong. The worst part is that this deer is likely going to succumb to an infection or a predator. That's an awful way to go out, and I can't imagine the suffering this poor animal has undergone for the last week. I've encouraged my coworker to get back out there to find this deer and put it out of its misery sooner rather than later.
23 Responses to Hunting: Sometimes, You Can't Fight Bad Luck
My wife shot a small deer same place twice with 300 win mag. I went to gut it an hour later it was still alive & breathing, you could see the lungs inflating. Only explanation is that deer are a very tough animal.
Unfortunately infection will likely kill her. This season the wife put a doe down that had no left legs below the "knees" she was limping along on her bones.
I'm half-heartedly waving the BS flag. Just thinking that I don't see any sign of blood in that picture, new or old. Thinking Photoshop does not cause any bleeding. Still, yeah, hell of a story, I can't be sure. My idea was this was the entry AND exit side, like the animal was shot from behind (or in front) and the bullet collected some flesh and hide as it bounced off the ribs and exited without doing much serious damage. Unless it was beyond 500 yards, tho, that doesn't seem possible given the loading.
A week with a wound like that? How is this deer not on a coyotes plate? Photoshop?
I would call b.s. On this but in the last two weeks I've lost a deer that I found two hours and 1.5miles later with a bullet hole immediately in front of the heart…..and it still go up an ran into thick swamp before I could shoot again.
A friend also had to track one a few hundred yards that took a bullet through a shoulder, both lungs and the opposite leg, leaving a softball sized exit wound!
Tough animals those deer!
If you look carefully you can see the gopher from "Caddyshack" laughing at you from inside the deer.
maybe. either way its very dark.
Bad for the Doe, good for the coyotes, vultures, nature is the clean up crew.
NH Wildlife Journal Magazine just had an article about leashed dog trackers that hunters can call in to track wounded animals. You can read the article at: http://www.eye2nature.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/WJ_NovDec_2015_Going_the_Extra_Mile.pdf
How many other states have licensed trackers?
Maybe it is a Zombie Deer?
Completely possible. If the deer's leg was forward, as if it was leaning way over to eat, and was breathing out when the round hit, there would be plenty of space for the bullet to pass. That whole wouldn't have started that large, but after a week of run and rot it would have enlarged a great deal.
I've seen this same thing, in the same place, but much, much smaller on deer shot with arrows.
I'd vote that it was a side-grazing shot that bounced off of the shoulder blade at a shallow angle and took the skin and meat with it, with no intrusion into the body proper.
That is what I saw with one deer in a group heading to sample the product in a near-by corn field. A friend`s deer stand seemed a bit too improv for a guy my size, so I used some netting and brush to make like a stump. Several deer came out of the brush heading toward me. After they had a good laugh at my camouflage skills, they broke left and away just as I took a shot for the upper leg and heart of a well fed corn thief. My choice went "Hollywood" in an explosion of leaves and hooves-head-hooves-head-hooves. The bullet had entered the "upper leg", followed the shoulder blade and emerged in a ragged hole high on the shoulder. There was no penetration of the shoulder blade or rib cage, but the impact was severe enough to cause fatal, internal damage.
The deer in the photograph might have been just a bit luckier than the critter that I encountered. A fraction of a second or a fraction of an inch would have made a world of difference.
I don't see how she could have been shot in the left side and have a hole that big without having both lungs punctured.
Surviving a double hemp/pneumothorax? Not happening.
Maybe, just maybe, an entry near the front of the chest, then blowing out like that.
If it's not a photoshop, I don't see her lasting much longer.
Aw, make me all warm and fuzzy. God did put 'em here for us to do as we like with, just like women. It's in the bible.
I've come to the conclusion that you are the king of Fudds, and you lead a merry band of followers, Tyler. Hang your shit up, and stick to ringing steel.
That looks photoshoped or is a really strange thing.
I've shot a few deer in my day. Most just either fall down and die on the spot or walk less than 25yds and do the same but every now and then they just run off leaving a blood trail a blind man could follow never to be recovered. I can't explain it. Neither can anybody else. I've gotten more quick kills since I switched to round nose bullets in my 308. I had a ballistic tip whistle thru a deer at 100yds, blood coming out both sides. Never found him. I have pictures of a 12point that used to hang around my back 40 all the time. He got shot with a broad head tipped arrow around New Years day one year. He showed up to eat corn with the broad head sticking out of him. No worse for wear. Came back the next year with just a scar where the broad head was. Go figure.
I put a sabot through a small buck from the shoulder down through the lower parts and he still ran 60 yards. Deer are tough animals. Unlike humans I don't think they realize what happened and if the engine room still works they will take off until blood loss knocks them out
Thanks for talking about this subject and about our obligations as hunters.
This reminds me of pictures of African animals I have seen. A lion that got is lower jaw nearly broken/ripped all the way off with only a little bit of blood for that sort of traumatic injury. Or the disemboweled zebra that seemed to be missing all of its guts but wasn't pouring blood in the picture and was still standing and alive.
There is also the of course the famous headless chicken. Or the zillions of people who are maimed and survive the injuries; notable examples that come to mind are the guy that had the open stomach wound from the 1700's that literally stuck a cork in it or a railroad worker who had a 3 foot iron pipe shot through his head and lived.
The body is an amazing thing that in one blink is extremely durable and resilient and in the next is easily broken or destroyed.
Animals are amazing. I'd have trouble believing this if I hadn't seen deer shrug off HORRIBLE wounds in the past. I helped a friend track a deer on my own property(started there anyway) that was shot through 3/4 shoulder, took off into the woods and ripped off an ENTIRE front leg when it hooked a tree. The deer made it almost 1/2 mile before it dropped and was still breathing when we found it. He used Hornaday 30-06 poly tip that went through one shoulder blade and shredded the other shoulder on exit.
I've also seen a squirrel live several months with a gaping hole where his front leg used to be. I hit him with a .17HMR through the body and he took off(very rare) so I thought I missed until I found the leg. Several months later I saw a 3 legged squirrel and dropped him. The wound was healing but still looked infected so we didn't eat the meat. I felt sorry for the guy.

Gadkari's A-team announced; Raje, Sidhu, Varun included
Youth has been given prominence in BJP president Nitin Gadkari`s new team of 13 vice-presidents, 10 general secretaries and 15 secretaries.
Zeenews Bureau
New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Nitin Gadkari on Tuesday announce the party`s new team of office bearers on Tuesday, thereby ending a three-month long suspense.
As expected, Gadkari`s new team has a blend of youth and experience.
The new A-team of the BJP would have 11 vice-presidents, 10 general secretaries and 15 secretaries.
The list of new vice-presidents includes the names of senior party leaders like Shanta Kumar, Kalraj Mishra, Vinay Katiyar, Bhagatsingh Koshiyari, Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi, Karuna Shukla, Najma Heptullah, Hema Malini, Bijoya Chakravarti, Purushottam Rupala and Kiran Ghai
The new general secretaries are Ravishankar Prasad, Dharmendra Pradhan, Narendrasingh Tomar, Ramlal, Anant Kumar, Thavarchand Gehlot, Jagat Prakash Nadda, Arjun Munda, Vijay Goel and Vasundhara Raje Scindia.
Anant Kumar would be also hold the post of the secretary of the Parliamentary board – the highest decision making body of the body.
There appears to be a conscious decision to infuse new blood for the post of secretary. The new secretaries are: Varun Gandhi, Santosh Gangwar, Smriti Irani, Saroj Pandey, Kiran Maheshwari, Tapir Gao, Navjot Singh Siddhu, Ashok Pradhan, Muralidhar Rao, Dr. Kirit Somaiyya, Dr. Laxman, Captain Abhimanyu, Arati Mehra, Bhupendra Yadav and Vani Tripathi.
V Satish and Saudan Singh have been appointed the joint general secretary of the party.
The party has also decided to appoint more spokespersons. Shahnawaz Hussain, Prakash Javdekar, Tarun Vijay, Nirmala Sitaram, Rajiv Pratap Rudy and Ramnath Kovil would now be the party`s face in the media.
Party old-timer Piyush Goyal has been appointed treasurer.
The list does a few surprises though. The inclusion of former Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje, despite being not in the good books of former BJP president Rajnath Singh, can be seen as the heralding of a new era in the party; that of Nitin Gadkari and his choices..
Varun Gandhi's elevation as secretary would also raise some eyebrows as there have been reports that many senior party functionaries were opposed to the idea of giving him any party post.
However, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) reportedly backed Varun Gandhi as it sees him as a counter to Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi.
However, as expected, former BJP stalwarts Arun Shourie and Yashwant Sinha's names are missing from the list of new appointees.
Powerful leaders like Balbir Punj and Prabhat Jha also could not find a berth this time.
However, Gadkari appears to have taken a conscious decision to ensure 33 percent women representation in the party - among the 40 office bearers, 13 are women.
Commenting on the new team BJP chief spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad said, "The list is such that people from Andaman to Jammu and Kashmir, from Gujarat to Assam are being represented. It is a balanced list with women, Dalits, tribes, all included."

The Saudi Arabian city of Medina is considered a sacrosanct locale by Muslims around the world. It is the city that welcomed the Prophet Mohammed when his own tribe in Mecca turned against him and is the place where the Prophet, as well as his family members and companions, are buried. Medina was the site of Muhammad's migration and has, since then, become the second of Islam's holy cities and thus, the second most popular spot for Muslims worldwide.
Such popularity has led to some distasteful changes to the historic and spiritually-important city as well as its fellow holy shrine, Mecca. In recent years, skyscraper apartments and hotels have taken precedent over valuable landmarks like the Prophet's birthplace and the home of his first wife Khadija. According to a Gulf Institute report, "95% of the 1,000-year-old buildings in the two cities have been destroyed in the past 20 years."
However, it's not simply the tragic destruction of Islamic heritage sights that's ruining the perceived splendor of these cities. As Saudis pave over History for shopping malls, we must look also at the shift of the city's ideals – we must see that the spirit of tolerance and acceptance has been replaced with division and repression.
Racial discrimination and animosity are rampant in Medina, a place where people of all religions and walks of life once resided. The displays of racism vary – one must be particularly mindful to recognize it in the way Saudi women walk, un-veiled, in front of male migrant workers, whose race "excepts" them from modesty rules. One need be less aware to see the kinds of discrimination that happen within the mosques.
In Medina, I saw an Egyptian woman, who fought her way into a line that would allow her access to the Prophet's Mosque, waiting for her turn to pray at the holy site. When she mentioned to a mosque employee that the hubbub made her feel like a beggar, the employee shot back "you are Egyptian… you should be used to feeling like a beggar." Through her tears, the woman wondered aloud how such a hurtful exchange could occur in such a sacred place.
As Saudis pave over History for shopping malls, we must look also at the shift of the city's ideals – we must see that the spirit of tolerance and acceptance has been replaced with division and repression.
Rather than remaining holy sites, mosques (and perhaps the city at large) have become brusque and business-like. In Saudi, race, money, and family lines dictate your place; religious intent and sacred sentiments bear no weight.
The cities of Mecca and Medina are holy to all Muslims, shia and sunni alike, but the sectarian snobbery of Saudi Arabians makes it difficult for members of the former group to worship there. In Saudi, a country run in accordance with the strictest religious interpretations in the Arab world, Shiites are considered the "greatest enemies of Islam." No wonder they are the targets of so much animosity and humiliation in the sacred cities.
I once watched as a Shia, Iranian woman lost herself in prayer. The elderly matron quietly communed while a mosque employee circled her, arms crossed. Eventually the employee shouted at the old woman, forcing her to cut her prayers short and leave the mosque. The woman's age and tired limbs made the affair a drawn out humiliation that all shuddered to watch.
Despite the fact that religious tolerance is espoused in both the Quran and the Hadith, Saudi Arabians let their personal sectarian ideologies get in the way. Rather than welcoming pilgrims and worshippers into their cities and holy sites, Saudis turn to the pretension and derision made prominent by religious publications, school materials, and the speeches of famous Saudi clerics.
Unlike the holy city of Mecca, where men and woman circle the Kaaba and pray side by side, the mosques in Medina (like many others elsewhere) are segregated by gender. If there is an area allocated for the women to pray in, it's typically a small, crowded, sub-standard option when compared to the open expanses of the men's area. In Medina's Quba mosque, for example, women push and shove to get inside their tiny allocation and must pray in tightly packed clusters.
It is a widely accepted fact that at the time of the Prophet, barriers between men and women did not exist in the mosque; they were only created after the Prophet's death. In fact, women were not only present in mosques - they also spoke up and participated in discussions. Today there is no such mixing. For the sake of the ladies' "modesty," they are kept segregated and out of sight. But news commentator Sobia Ali argues that it's not for modesty's sake that women are pushed aside. She reminds us instead that it's because "men could be sexually attracted to women's bodies" and thereby distracted from prayer--as the official argument goes. "This of course makes me feel like a sex object," she writes.
The gender segregation at Medina left me feeling the same empty feeling. Rather than remembering that I am equal creation of God or valuable, I felt only that I should be ashamed of my body and as a result, should hide it. Tradition in the mosque in Medina and around the world has significantly changed since the Prophet's death, and women are now the ones bearing the burden.
The holy city of Medina was a place of refuge for the Prophet. It was the site where he established the laws and precepts that all Muslims (strive to) live by today. The historical and traditional landmarks alone are enough to merit a type of modern deference. And yet, the physical remains of religious legacy fall under the plow with increasing frequency. Historic buildings offer little economic value to the land brokers and money-makers of Saudi's cities.
What's more heartbreaking, however, is that the intangible traits of openness, hospitality, creativity and equality imbued in the city are also falling prey to the country's modern mannerisms. The tolerance present during the Prophet's time has, unfortunately, been overcome by the discriminations inherent in the Saudi system.
And yet, those who defend such a system pretend it is driven by the respect for "immemorial traditions." Nothing could be more wrong and deceitful.

The baby-faced teen whose self-centered musings and obsessions make up the bulk of the film, Momoko Ryugasaki (Kyoko Fukada) lives in Shimotsura, what she thinks of as the most remote, podunk corner of Japan. It's a land of small farms and small-minded people more interested in getting a bargain than wearing interesting clothes, a fact that horrifies the fashion-obsessed Momoko to no end. She dreams of living in 18th century France, and rhapsodizes endlessly about the Rococo era, which in her gauzy imaginings seems to be a split between Dangerous Liaisons and an outré fashion spread. Thinking of clothing as an extension of personality, she's disgusted by the people in her hometown (who she imagines as being born and dying in tacky tracksuits) and is constantly working on self-improvement, thinking "When I see clothes I like, I want to become worthy of them." So there she is, walking the lonely roads in her frilly corseted dresses, demure demeanor, parasol and all, living only for her occasional trips to a haute couture shop in Tokyo, many hours away by train.

text: I've had this TV for awhile and have set it up using Video Essentials. Before doing so I asked a tech at Toshiba which of the built-in color temps was closest to 6500K. He advised that it was probably the medium. There are Cool (blueish), Medium (neutral), and Warm (Reddish).That is how the owner's manual describes them. Was the tech correct, or is one of the Cool or Warm settings the closest to 6500K? If I change that setting, is it then necessary to set up the TV with Video Essentials again? Thanks in advance for your assisstance. Larry.

He already made the map significantly smaller; and he tried making NW a 2-team battleground but the games mechanics wouldn't allow that.Honestly making any new major edits in my opinion would just be a waste of time considering most of the community finds it good the way it is. Plus you need to realize that we actually did gain a lot of PWI/other server's players as of the eclipse patch release, so things may look brighter come Sunday or next week once he fixes the squad issue.I just wish that TW's weren't on any weekdays. Tbh. NW screwed with the whole old TW system, and it's disappointing.

Meat companies sued over Amazon deforestation.
Accused firms supplying Tesco, Asda and M&S.
David Adam, environment correspondent
The Guardian, Sunday 21 June 2009
A three-year survey by Greenpeace shows that western demand for beef and leather and an increase in cattle ranching is leading to intensified deforestation in the Amazon.
Brazilian authorities investigating illegal deforestation have accused the suppliers of several UK supermarkets of selling meat linked to massive destruction of the Amazon rainforest. Brazilian firms that supply Tesco, Asda and Marks & Spencer are among dozens of companies named by prosecutors, who are seeking hundreds of millions of pounds in compensation.

Name giving with royal names
Country of Princesses and other Blue Blood.
There is no country in the world where so many Princes and Princesses live than the Philippines. How would that be possible, you will ask yourself, there is no Royal family in the Philippines?
True, there are no royal families in this country, yet there are many Princesses, Princes, Dukes, Duchesses', Lady's, Queenie's, Sarina or Tsarina and many more of these names.
Philippine Boxing hero Manny Pacquiao, for example, named his daughters as follows: one is named Princess and the other Queen Elisabeth. And there is a well-known singer with the name Princess.
This does not mean these are their official names, often just a nickname. Having a nickname is part of the Philippine society. People often use the nickname of a person without knowing their real name.
And it is not only for girls to have such name, also boys have names like Prince, Duke, Baron and others.
Name giving with funny names
Next to these royal names, there are many other remarkable, at least for us foreigners, names in use. One of the Senators has the official name Joker, while the vice-president is named Jejomar (short for Jesus, Joseph, Maria). Women are sometimes called Luzviminda (named after the three regions in the Philippines: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao), and these are most of the time their official names.
During their lives, often when they are still young, Filipinos get a nickname. Sometimes a short version of their real name, but also just the first word the child is saying.
One of the most funny I think is the nickname of an actor José Sixto Raphael González Dantes. Nobody knows him with that name, but when you mention DingDong Dantes everybody knows. I do not have to explain to you what DingDong also means.
Other nicknames like that are: DingDing, BongBong (a son of the former President Marcos), BumBum, Nonoy, Lotlot , NoyNoy (president Benigno Aquino) and many others like Penpen, Dandan, Denden, Dondon, Dindin, Lala, Nene, Bebe, Jonjon, Junjun, Tintin, Yanyan, Tingting, Toto, Katkat, Macmac, Maimai, Nognog, Ningning, Chichi, Baba, Bangbang, Bingbing, Bambam, Bimbim.
Further I heard about names like: Peanut, Girlie, Barbie, Bambi, Junior and Baby (even for adults). Remarkable is that these names are found in all layers of the society, not only the less educated and poor, but also rich, and well educated families. And what do you think of a man called: Honey Boy ?
Many Filipino nicknames for English or Spanish names are just made by spelling the name in Tagalog alphabet and adding the suffix "-ing" at the end.
That Americans have put a large impression on the Philippine society can be seen in the name of this person: John F Kenneth Dee.
Also Chinese descendants sometimes have nice looking names: Van Go; there's even a man called Ivan Ho.
Why would you call your children after the days of the week or your favorite desserts, or even give them numbers as name: One, Two, Three and so on? I met a person with the name Six; because he was the sixth son in the family!
When you ask a Filipino why he names his children like that, his answer is always: Why not?
One other remarkable thing in name giving in the Philippines is the fact that they like to use and place the letter H in their name. For what reason is not known by me, but they even do it in their nicknames.
BongBong becomes BhongBhong of VhongVhong (V is often pronounced as a B). Jhun, Bhoy, Rhia. This is something from the last few years. Many youngsters change their name and add an H in the name or at the end.
(found somewhere on the internet:)
I have heard of a funny story which actually happened during a Little Miss Philippines contest on Eat Bulaga! tv show in the late 1980s.
According to the story, there was a contestant nicknamed Kengkeng. When one of the hosts, Vic Sotto, asked her why she was nicknamed Kengkeng, her answer on live TV was: "Kasi po, noong ipinanganak ako, ang taba-taba daw po ng aking pukengkeng!"
If you didn't understand the joke because it's in Tagalog, I'm so sorry but this is one occasion which I will not translate in English. So this is a good reason for you to ask your Tagalog-speaking friend for a translation, or get to know one who is. But make sure you show this blogpost first because if you ask it verbally without properly contextualizing the line, I can't guarantee that you won't get slapped in the face!

"Recovery" has such a lovely, somnolent sound, like a lazy kitten stretching out its paws to the sun. Something one can revel in, reach out one's hands to, and hold loosely, reverently.
"Survivorship" is another spectacular word, and on dark days I wrap it around my throat like a multi-colored scarf, hoping it will reassure me and take away some of the demons jumping in my head.
Here they are: Last night at the glamorous hour of 3:00 a.m. the cancer panic wheel lurched into motion. What if the ovarian cancer I had metastasized, hidden behind some organ? I had months of chemo to deal with that possibility, but what if? And there's my good friend's daughter, whose breast cancer did metastasize to her brain, and now she has to have radiation! Maybe my cancer's hiding in my brain? Maybe I can find a drive-by CAT scan truck which will check out my cranium for not too much money?
I think of myself as basically optimistic, strong, and hopeful, a person of faith. While I didn't exactly sail through two surgeries and months of chemo, I survived pretty well and kept up a somewhat normal life. (That includes lots of cooking.) But sometimes I feel as if I had a dark shadow attached to the back of my body; I can't see it, though I whip my head around to catch a glimpse. But it is there--the self with dark thoughts, no trust, poor faith, and weird predictions--you will die by 74.
Other times I think of my second self as a flayed skin--as if some part of me had been stripped away by cancer and now was attached, fluttering mutely on my back. This has the capacity to bring me down, to eat too much, drink too much wine, buy too many items on Amazon, and search frantically through newspapers for good news about promising cancer cures. Found one today on the NY Times, about "checkpoint inhibitors," which rev up the body's T cells to fight cancer. Sounds promising, all except for the few people whose T cells attacked their heart....
In the 6th month out from the cessation of chemo, this is what's happening: Having walked through my hospital stays and treatment without sobbing
under the covers and snorting unnamed substances, I now find myself on the other side of cancer. If such a thing exists. All of the courage and perseverance I mustered during treatment has a cost; I feel hollowed out, at least for today. I told a good friend, recovering from several courses of chemo, that, "We need a Viagra pill for courage, something to jack it up and make it stand tall."
That's where I am today, with a fistful of mixed metaphors: Cancer Panic Wheel, Viagra for Courage, and Flayed Skin. But when something as life-altering and scary as cancer happens, you need a lot of metaphors to build a container to hold it. I am looking for one, and haven't found it yet. But I'm working on it.

Our history
'All it would take is for someone to sit down with me for 1 hour. I tried myself, I got instructions from the carrier, but it's too hard'. For Nokia New Zealand Director, Denis O'Shea, hearing this lament from one of his business contacts was a defining moment.

Within three years, the company had expanded into Australia, Brazil and China working with leading mobile operators.

10 Reasons I Want to Go To Blog School
#1 – I ate a pickle for lunch today. My sandwich was made on whole wheat bread and I had them hold the mayo. Does anyone care? As a registered dietitian nutritionist, I feel like I have some great knowledge to share with the world, but do people really want to know what I ate for lunch?
#2 – See that section in the upper left called "Quotables"? My vision was that I'd rotate in a new food/health/inspirational quote every week, but alas, after my designer set it up for me, I never figured out how to change it! So, that quote has been there for about 18 mos. In that time, I should've/could've posted 72 quotes. Silver lining? I still have plenty of quotes squirreled away for the next 18 mos….like this one!
#3 – This sad, broken coaster from Woodford Reserve. We went on a tour of Woodford Reserve back in May. I jotted notes the whole time and planned a super-fun recap post (that never was). The coaster broke on the way home and I thought that just maybe the kind folks at Woodford Reserve would send me a new one if they saw my amazing post (but they didn't. because it is the post that never was).
#4 – I have approximately 62 (o.k., not approximately) ideas for future posts logged in a Word doc and in a Google Drive doc, but that is where they sit. I want to finally share my tips for how we use a whole bag of baby carrots from Costco before they go bad and my yummy recipe for an Apple Pie a la Mode smoothie!
#5 – Of the 62 aforementioned ideas, at least 23 are out of date since I came up with the ideas back when the topics were actually timely!
#6 – I want to redo my blog navigation. I know exactly how I want it to be. Problem is, I'm stuck with this pretty org-chart looking thing.
#7 – See that funky looking icon off to the left over there? I think it used to be a cute little chocolate-dipped logo that said "Archives", but somewhere along the way I must have messed up the HTML. Perhaps when I was (unsuccessfully) trying to figure out how to change the quote in #2?
#8 – One of my biggest pet peeves is wasting time. One of my favorite sayings is this one by Herb Kelleher of Southwest Airlines. I'm calling myself out as a class-A hypocrite because instead of "doing things" with my blog, I've been working on my "strategic plan"….for far too long. Please help me stop the madness!
#9 – I've been ignoring the yellow bar at the top of WordPress that tells me Version 3.6 is available because the warning to "back up my database and files" both scares and baffles me. Is that bad?
#10 – It's back-to-school season and I'm a little jealous of all the kiddos and their fancy school supplies…I want to go back to school too! And, although it is all virtual, you better bet your bottom dollar that I'm still going to pack a lunch in my newly acquired Bento lunch box! And, don't you want to know what a nutritionist packs in her lunch? It's not all pickles and sandwiches, you know!
Blog School is a 6-part virtual program created by Rita the Blog Genie. Registration is open now through September 9, but she is giving away 3 free scholarships! If you want a scholarship to Blog School too, all you have to do is follow these instructions to enter Blog School's Scholarship Giveaway! But, please don't make your entry better than mine because I really want to be one of the top 3 people!
Note: This post is an entry to win a scholarship to Blog School. I have not been compensated in any way for writing this post and, let's be real, we'll all benefit if I win!
Holler for Apples
It's apple picking season! A couple weeks ago, I took Hailey apple picking at Apple Holler in Sturtevant, WI. We took a tractor ride to the orchards and picked collected Gala, Golden Delicious, Jonathan and Honey Crisp apples. I say collected instead of picked because by the time we arrived at 3:00 pm the open section of the orchard was picked clean, but they had plenty of harvested apples to choose from in crates. Unfortunately, due to heat and drought earlier this year, the apple crop was much smaller and the growers need to carefully manage which orchards they open for picking and when they open them to the public.
We were slowly but surely making a dent in our haul and apples can keep for up to three weeks in the refrigerator. However, I was starting to fear for the quality of the ones that were left, so I decided to bake an apple crostata for this weekend's Purdue Homecoming tailgate (Boiler Up!). I spotted the inspiration for this recipe in a Food & Wine San Pelligrino ad, but I ultimately decided to make Ina Garten's version after looking around at other recipes. I simplified it further by using a premade pie crust because I haven't yet found the time to perfect the art of pie crust. (I could only find 9-inch premade pie crusts and the recipe called for a 12 inch crust. I forgot to scale back the apples and topping so I had some left over.)
The final product was delicious and bursting with the favors of fall. And, best of all I love that a day of apple-picking fun was extended to a house filled with scrumptious smells and lip-smacking kudos from hungry tailgaters.
Anyone have any recommendations on making a perfect pie crust?
Indulgent Holidays?
…so says the sign that hangs on the wall at my Grandpa's house. As I read it I smell chocolate chip cookies baking, I see an iced oatmeal cake waiting to be sliced and there's candy from the Easter Bunny in every corner. All this begs the question, how do indulgence and wellness fit together on a holiday?
In reality, the answer is in your hands – how indulgent do you want to be? Depending on where you are on your health journey, you may want to allow yourself fewer indulgences than someone else. The MOST important thing on special days is that you take the time to enjoy every minute with the people you love. If part of that enjoyment comes from eating delectable foods that evoke memories and make the day complete, then by all means do so.
Here's a few things to keep in mind will help you enjoy the day even more:
- Start your day with a nutritious breakfast. I've heard too many people say they skip breakfast to "save room/calories" for the big meal, but this is setting yourself up for an afternoon of grazing on snacks until the actual meal comes out. Fill up at breakfast with a protein food (eggs, yogurt, nuts), a whole grain food (oatmeal, whole grain bread) and fruit so you don't spoil your appetite for the big show!
- Research shows that you get the most enjoyment out of the first x bites of food. Serve yourself a small portion of delectable dishes and decide after enjoying a few bites if you really want more.
- There's no need to fit in a strenuous workout on a day that you could be spending time with friends and family, but why not suggest that the whole gang go for a stroll around the block to help digest your meal?
And, of course, don't forget that a holiday lasts a day…not a week. Wake up tomorrow and put a little extra focus on wellness without one bit of guilt that you truly enjoyed today.

The present invention relates to a system and method for achieving crest factor reduction for multi-carrier modulation in a wireless communication network, such as an ad-hoc peer-to-peer multi-hopping mobile wireless communication network, using the properties of the Inverse Fourier Transform.
In recent years, a type of mobile communications network known as an "ad-hoc" network has been developed. In this type of network, each mobile node is capable of operating as a base station or router for the other mobile nodes, thus eliminating the need for a fixed infrastructure of base stations. As can be appreciated by one skilled in the art, network nodes transmit and receive data packet communications in a multiplexed format, such as time-division multiple access (TDMA) format, code-division multiple access (CDMA) format, or frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) format, which enables a single transceiver at a first node to communicate simultaneously with several other nodes in its coverage area.
More sophisticated ad-hoc networks are also being developed which, in addition to enabling mobile nodes to communicate with each other as in a conventional ad-hoc network, further enable the mobile nodes to access a fixed network and thus communicate with other mobile nodes, such as those on the public switched telephone network (PSTN), and on other networks such as the Internet. Details of these advanced types of ad-hoc networks are described in U.S. Pat. No. 7,072,650 entitled "Ad Hoc Peer-to-Peer Mobile Radio Access System Interfaced to the PSTN and Cellular Networks," issued on Jul. 4, 2006, in U.S. Pat. No. 6,807,165 entitled "Time Division Protocol for an Ad-Hoc, Peer-to-Peer Radio Network Having Coordinating Channel Access to Shared Parallel Data Channels with Separate Reservation Channel," issued on Oct. 19, 2004, and in U.S. Pat. No. 6,873,839 entitled "Prioritized-Routing for an Ad-Hoc, Peer-to-Peer, Mobile Radio Access System," the entire content of each being incorporated herein by reference.
As can be appreciated by one skilled in the art, radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers are used in wireless communication networks for the transmission of signals. Solid state RF power amplifiers can be modeled by amplitude-modulation/amplitude-modulation (AM/AM) characteristics, because the amplitude-modulation/phase-modulation (AM/PM) characteristics are negligible. As the input signal amplitude to amplifier is increased, the output signal will begin to saturate at some level in the RF amplifier. The amplitude where the output signal moves from the linear region to the saturation region is usually referred to as the one decibel (1 dB) compression point of the amplifier.
Different models for RF power amplifiers have been developed, and an important feature of each of these models is the manner in which the output signal moves from the linear region to the saturation region. At the extreme end of the model amplifiers are the completely linear model and limiter model. To maintain linear operation, power amplifiers are usually backed off by some number of dBs from the one decibel (1 dB) compression point. The required back-off depends on the crest factor (CF) of the input signal. For orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation, back-offs higher than 5 dB are generally used. Typical back-off numbers are in the region of 9-12 dB for 64 OFDM.
As understood in the art, the crest factor (CF) of a signal can be defined as the peak to average amplitude ratio. The peak to average power ratio (PAPR) can be computed from the CF. High CF multi-carrier modulation, such as OFDM, can pose problems for RF power amplifiers because they require high linearity. To maintain linearity, power amplifiers are usually backed-off from their 1 dB compression point so that they can reproduce the high peak powers of the signal without distortion.
The high CF of OFDM results from the individual carrier components being added together at different phases in the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT). The CF is relatively independent of the modulation method of the individual carriers when there are many sub carriers. The CF is also relatively independent of the number of sub carriers for practical 32-256 sub carrier OFDM modulations.
If the CF of the signal can be reduced prior to the RF power amplifier, the back-off can be reduced and mean output power can be increased. Numerous CF reduction methods have been developed. Generally, these include selective mapping where multiple information equivalent signals are created and the lowest CF signal is then selected for transmission. Partial transmit signal is a similar approach where multiple partial signals are generated and the most beneficial linear combination is transmitted. In addition, hard and soft clipping methods limit CF by removing or reducing peaks.
The accompanying figures, where like reference numerals refer to identical or functionally similar elements throughout the separate views and which together with the detailed description below are incorporated in and form part of the specification, serve to further illustrate various embodiments and to explain various principles and advantages all in accordance with the present invention.
Skilled artisans will appreciate that elements in the figures are illustrated for simplicity and clarity and have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help to improve understanding of embodiments of the present invention.
Before describing in detail embodiments that are in accordance with the present invention, it should be observed that the embodiments reside primarily in combinations of method steps and apparatus components related to a system and method for achieving crest factor reduction for multi-carrier modulation in a wireless communication network. Accordingly, the apparatus components and method steps have been represented where appropriate by conventional symbols in the drawings, showing only those specific details that are pertinent to understanding the embodiments of the present invention so as not to obscure the disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description herein.
In this document, relational terms such as first and second, top and bottom, and the like may be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. The terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. An element proceeded by "comprises . . . a" does not, without more constraints, preclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
It will be appreciated that embodiments of the invention described herein may be comprised of one or more conventional processors and unique stored program instructions that control the one or more processors to implement, in conjunction with certain non-processor circuits, some, most, or all of the functions of a system and method for achieving crest factor reduction for multi-carrier modulation in a wireless communication network described herein. The non-processor circuits may include, but are not limited to, a radio receiver, a radio transmitter, signal drivers, clock circuits, power source circuits, and user input devices. As such, these functions may be interpreted as steps of a method for achieving crest factor reduction for multi-carrier modulation in a wireless communication network. Alternatively, some or all functions could be implemented by a state machine that has no stored program instructions, or in one or more application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), in which each function or some combinations of certain of the functions are implemented as custom logic. Of course, a combination of the two approaches could be used. Thus, methods and means for these functions have been described herein. Further, it is expected that one of ordinary skill, notwithstanding possibly significant effort and many design choices motivated by, for example, available time, current technology, and economic considerations, when guided by the concepts and principles disclosed herein will be readily capable of generating such software instructions and programs and ICs with minimal experimentation.
As will now be described, the present invention provides a system and method that can achieve crest factor reduction without requiring windowing, multiple partial transmitted signals, clipping in a soft or hard manner, nor the application of multiplicative signals or kernels to phase shift the sub carrier components.
As can be appreciated by one skilled in the art, the nodes 102, 106 and 107 are capable of communicating with each other directly, or via one or more other nodes 102, 106 or 107 operating as a router or routers for packets being sent between nodes, as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,072,650, 6,807,165 and 6,873,839, referenced above.
As shown in
Each node 102, 106 and 107 further includes a memory 114, such as a random access memory (RAM) that is capable of storing, among other things, routing information pertaining to itself and other nodes in the network 100. As further shown in
As will now be described, the embodiments of the present invention described herein provide a system and method that is capable of using the beneficial properties of the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) to achieve crest factor reduction for multi-carrier modulation in a wireless communication network, such as an ad-hoc peer-to-peer multi-hopping mobile wireless communication network. The controller 112 in cooperation with the memory 114 and transceiver 108 of any of the nodes as shown in
For each output sample of the sequence f(n), k input frequencies are added together and multiplied by phase components that contain the output sample index n as a linear component. By changing the position of input frequency F(k) (i.e. changing k for a frequency component), the phase component used by the IDFT for transforming this frequency to a time domain signal also changes.
Therefore, if the original input frequencies are mapped to a new set of frequencies by mapping every input frequency to some other input frequency, the IDFT will create a new output sequence. By creating multiple mappings, different versions of the same input signal can be generated by IDFT. Hence, this technique does not require the application of multiplicative kernels or phase rotations as it uses the properties of IDFT.
The CF reduction system and method further uses these properties by generating a map 300 having L maps where each input frequency is mapped to another input frequency as shown in
The OFDM modulator 400, which can be located in the transceiver 108 along with the other components shown in
where 0<=k<=N, N is the number of samples in each IDFT output p[k]. The transform signal with the lowest (i.e., minimum) CF value is selected in selector 440 for transmission.
It is also noted that the number of IDFTs that are evaluated can be reduced by stopping the process when a CF value is computed that is lower than a threshold. The threshold can be variable depending on the success of previous symbols as the average number of evaluations determines the use of resources. The disclosed technique thus uses multiple IDFTs or IFFTs. Some of the input signals are the same for all frequency-to-frequency maps. This feature can be used for optimized IDFT or IFFT by not clocking the logic with unchanged inputs.
In the foregoing specification, specific embodiments of the present invention have been described. However, one of ordinary skill in the art appreciates that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention as set forth in the claims below. Accordingly, the specification and figures are to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense, and all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of present invention. The benefits, advantages, solutions to problems, and any element(s) that may cause any benefit, advantage, or solution to occur or become more pronounced are not to be construed as a critical, required, or essential features or elements of any or all the claims. The invention is defined solely by the appended claims including any amendments made during the pendency of this application and all equivalents of those claims as issued.
