I need to email from the command line a previously created file. (The
finished working command will go into cron and so should be completely
programmatic.) Using Linux, There are a few open source apps that
should work: mail, mailx, and nail. Weirdness is that they all share
the same manpage. So maybe they all work exactly the same (???).
Or maybe I should say they all fail to work in the same way, because I
can't get anything to work at all or to give a helpful error message.
One complicating factor is that I don't want to set up a local mail
server and according to the mail/mailx/nail manpage, I shouldn't have
to. (That much I can understand of the manpage.) I have a remote mail
(IMAPS/SSL) server which works perfectly fine with thunderbird.
One simplifying factor is that I need only to send an email-- don't have
to read any.
The remote server I'm using listens on port 993, uses SSL.
I created a ~/.mailrc which contains this:
account street \
from="gebser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (ken) \
password-user@host=pass-word-w-dashes \
alias dest: recip@xxxxxxxx
The command I use-- well, one of them I've tried:
echo '.' | nail -A street -q mailfile.in -s "test using nail" \
-r gebser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx dest
The only error messages this and its variations yeild is:
send-mail: warning: inet_protocols: IPv6 support is disabled: Address

send-mail: warning: inet_protocols: configuring for IPv4 support only
postdrop: warning: inet_protocols: IPv6 support is disabled: Address

Help enough to get this working would be much appreciated.

Delta Air Lines has said it is working with the FBI after sewing needles were found in food on four US-bound flights from Amsterdam on Sunday.
One passenger was injured after the needles were found in sandwiches made by the airline's Amsterdam caterer, Gate Gourmet.
The airline said that the FBI and Netherlands officials are investigating the incidents.
It said: "Delta is taking this matter extremely seriously and is cooperating with local and federal authorities who are investigating the incident.
"Delta has taken immediate action with our in-flight caterer at Amsterdam to ensure the safety and quality of the food we provide onboard our aircraft."
One person on a flight to Minneapolis was injured but declined medical treatment.
A suspected sewing needle was also found in a sandwich by a passenger on an Atlanta-bound flight. A US air marshal found another while flying on another Atlanta-bound flight.
Another apparent needle was found aboard a Seattle-bound flight in a sandwich that had not been served.
Gate Gourmet spokeswoman Christina Ulosevich said the company has received no reports of similar incidents on any of the other airlines it serves out of Amsterdam.
She said the company did not yet know how the needles got into the sandwiches.
Gate Gourmet said: "We take this matter very seriously and we have launched our own full-scale investigation."
It also said it was "heightening our already stringent safety and security procedures, to prevent any recurrence".

With only two weeks left in the life of Texas Thunder Speedway, Harker Heights racer Jason Batt is closing in on a once-in-a-lifetime goal.
He badly wants to have his name in the record books as the final IMCA Stock Car champion in track history, and Batt took a big step in that quest Saturday night.
After Friday night's victory at Heart of Texas Speedway in Elm Mott, Batt started 12th in a 19-car, 20-lap feature at TTS and patiently picked off competitors one by one until lap 10, when he moved into the second spot behind Killeen's Anthony Otken.
Two circuits later, coming into turn four, Batt dived low and edged by Otken's left side, with only inches between the two. That move gave him the lead, and as fans know, when Batt gets out front with a head of steam, he's hard to catch. Nobody would on this night, either.
I'll miss watching Jason race, just like I'm going to miss all our drivers, as the end is really close now. Another thing that makes it fun is how you never know who'll take the checkered flag, and sometimes drivers considered to be underdogs will pull out of nowhere and grab the laurels.
Case in point is a guy who refers to himself as "Underdog."
Killeen's Randy Doyle, who said he "had forgotten the way to Victory Lane," got his memory back Saturday in a 16-car IMCA Southern SportMod main event.
Early on, Doyle's No. 65 was trailing leader Kevin Stanford, who races out of Oglesby and managed to sneak by to the lead, but Doyle wasn't out of the woods by a long shot, not with the Belton-based car of track points leader G.W. Egbert IV bearing down hard.
Doyle was able to counter the hard-charging Egbert's every move and take that long-awaited ride to the Winner's Circle.
There wasn't much drama in the IMCA Hobby Stock feature race, because it turned into a runaway, green-to-checker win for Waco driver Robert Scrivner, who took the top spot right from the start and was never really challenged.
Then it was back to slam-bam action when 24 Street Stocks hit the track, but things weren't like last week, with three wrecks before one lap was completed.
This time, there was only one caution flag at the start and once that was cleaned up, Killeen racer David Dunn moved ahead. By lap six there was a dogfight for the lead between Dunn and Nolanville's Gary Norman. Those two went at it for another eight times around the quarter mile, before Georgetown's Jacob Wininger got involved ... in a big way.
Wininger took over on lap 16 after a stout battle, and when it was all over, he had parked his streamlined machine in Victory Lane.
Once again, the Texas Twisters kicked off their A-Main from a standing start, and Copperas Cove racer Trevor Hudson, starting from the pole, spurred his 75R to a fast lead and never looked back until he was standing in the Winner's Circle.
Another flag-to-flag win was put up by Killeen's Ryan Ellis, who piloted his Outlaw Twister to Victory Lane, but he had to earn it, due to fierce pressure from Cove driver Taylor Florio.
Four lead changes highlighted the IMCA Modified feature race. Hutto's Mike McCarthy had his car on top after five laps, but gave up a left-side pass to Justin Radcliff. The China Spring racer soon found himself in second, after Killeen driver Scooter Bates went by. Bates led by three car lengths until Hewitt's Dillon Smith passed him on lap 17 and headed off at high speed for Victory Lane.
Last on the race card was another Powder Puff Derby, this one featuring significant others of racers in the I-Stock, Hobby Stock and Street Stock classes.
Two of the ladies, Jennifer Silva and track pit steward Ziggy Barnes, had to start a lap down because they had both been registered drivers in the past ... then disaster struck.
Barnes, who raced full time in the late 1970's and early 1980's, had borrowed Buck Owens' No. 8 I-Stock, but it started leaking transmission oil, so she was black-flagged before the show even started. Sad, since it was to be her last race at the track she had called home for more than 30 years.
Patty Hardcastle, driving her husband's 829 Street Stock, led from flag-to-flag and got the win.
Thanks and thoughts ... a big thank you to Dan Corbin and Associates for once again offering added prize money to drivers with the name Willie Palmer on their cars. Palmer was a Fort Hood MP and big-time race fan who worked in the pits at Texas Thunder before being deployed to the first Gulf War, where he lost his life. It was the 21st and final Willie Palmer Memorial Race Night at Texas Thunder Speedway.
I asked several people at the track if it has sunk in yet that we only have two race nights left before the heavy equipment moves in and demolishes this Killeen landmark.
Most agreed it's such a shame, after all the work promoter David Goode has done over the past four years to get the track in its best shape ever, with big car counts, exciting racing and a family-friendly atmosphere, that it has to fall victim to urban sprawl.
The track was here first, but I guess that doesn't matter.
There's two nights left.
See ya at the track.

Metamorphosis, The Castle and Amerika provide a fertile soil for The Franz Kafka Videogame, coming to PC, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android in 2014. Does it look suitably odd? You bet.
The game's main character, K, is sent on a distant voyage from his homeland by his new employer. But as it turns out, the rest of the world is more than a bit weird.
Absurdity, surrealism and plenty of puzzles are promised by Russian developer Denis Galanin, who had previously produced Shakespearean re-imagining Hamlet or the Last Game without MMORPG Features, Shaders and Product Placement.
Employing a hand-drawn art style, the debut trailer sees spiky tentacle monsters loom, strange contraptions inhabit wartime trenches, dogs retrieve mysterious messages and spacemen appear in dark dank alleys.
Against that backdrop a six-armed, tall green man in a trench coat doesn't seem so abnormal after all.
Galanin's previous full-length excursion into Point & Click Adventureland had seen players step into the shoes of Hamlet, temporarily indisposed due to a time-travelling accident, while the dastardly Claudius closes in on marrying Ophelia.
Since then, Galanin has produced a number of smaller games for the Newgrounds portal and provided monthly illustrated cartoon strips for Russian games industry site Galyonkin.com.

Controller works in extreme environments
Allen-Bradley ControlLogix-XT (Extreme Environment) controller from Rockwell Automation operates in abusive environments.
The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix-XT (Extreme Environment) controller from Rockwell Automation operates in very cold or hot temperatures, minus 25 C to 70 C, and meets ANSI/ISA-S71.04-1985 Class G1, G2, and G3, as well as cULus, Class 1 Div 2, C-Tick, CE, ATEX Zone 2, and SIL 2 requirements for increased protection against salts, corrosives, moisture, humidity, and fungal growth.
The controllers meet ISA Pollution Class G1, G2, and G3 standards. When used with Allen-Bradley Flex I/O-XT products, they provide a rugged environment control system that avoids the need for an air conditioner or temperature regulator.
Allen-Bradley ControlLogix-XT active controller components are separated on the backplane by vented faceplate segments that provide increased airflow, offer a thermal cushion, and help lower the need for air-conditioning panels. Allen-Bradley ControlLogix-XT controllers are ideally suited for corrosive environments, such as those found in oil and gas, wind-turbine, and ship-building applications. They are also well-suited for steel mills, where machines are constantly exposed to extreme heat.

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

In September 2001, I was just out (I thought) of a three-year battle with my hometown hospital. As soon as I got a settlement check, there were a number of debts and over-due bills to pay, and then the little matter of trying to figure out where to go from there. I had actually thought about driving up to New York City (like many Americans, I suffer from the irrational fear of flying), schlepping around town and even playing & dining on "The Top of the World" (never mind my equally-irrational fear of heights). I reasoned it would be a great way to celebrate my legal "victory" and my freedom. I had not been to NYC since New Year's Eve 1978 (a trip with the then-high school Yas).
But there was a little glitch in that plan – something I had to deal with first. I had a lump in my breast, and I needed to get it checked out.
On September 11, 2001, I walked into the waiting room at Bertrand's Breast Center and began to register. I had driven up to Greensboro that morning in silence – no radio and no CD - thinking that if this lump was the worst it could be my life would be very different in a matter of hours. I also remember how gorgeous that morning was . . . crisp and early "autumnish" with not a cloud in the sky. When I arrived at the office, it was early and the waiting room was empty save for one black gentleman who seemed to be glued to a TV set. Preoccupied, I glanced at the TV as I hurriedly filled out forms at the window, and noted that there seemed to be some kind of bizarre disaster movie on. Not registering what was going on, I thought it was odd to have something like that on so early in the morning, and asked the gentleman what movie he was watching. He turned to look at me . . . his face ashen . . . a face I will not ever forget . . . and said, "Ma'am, it's not a movie."
As I watched repeated re-plays of American Airlines jetliners flying into buildings, my thoughts immediately turned to my brother – who is a pilot for American – and who I knew was in the air. First I called Mom, then Dad, trying to find out where he was and what airport he was flying out of, or what flight he was on. They did not know. It was an hour or so before my brother was able to get a call out to Dad from Dallas . . . where his plane had landed after everything in the American sky was ordered down on the ground (or else). My brother and I are not the mushy types and do not wear our hearts on our sleeve. But I remember hanging up the phone with hot tears of relief (and rage knowing that thousands of people were not so lucky) streaming down my face.
I will never forget the feeling of not knowing – or the horrible things that I imagined while not knowing.
I went on with the mammogram. In the "inner sanctum" of naked-from-the-waist-up women in ill-fitting drapes, we watched the horror unfold on a tiny TV set. I sat next to a woman who said she had family that worked in the Trade Center. I don't know how that turned out.
My lump was benign – the equivalent of a hormonal bump in the night. But life sure was different.
I hope to see "United 93" this weekend. It is the one of the few things I can do, and the very least I can do to honor the memory of 40 very brave souls.
God bless America – and those (extra)ordinary Americans.

Mary was far from home, but she was not alone on the first Christmas when she pondered the birth of her baby, the shepherd visitors, and what it all must mean. She had Joseph, the baby, and the comfort and companionship of the friendly beasts and their warm quiet breathing nearby. At least that's how I imagine it.
Just before Christmas, at about 12:30 in the morning on December 23, our fourteen-year-old yellow dog of velvet muzzle and kind, loyal heart passed away. His picture was among the few things I packed in my hospital bag when I was in labor with our first child. If dogs had been allowed at the hospital, he would have stayed beside me and licked my hand while I was in labor. If my husband and I were the holy couple, our dog would have made the trip with us to Bethlehem. And this Christmas, just a few days after his passing, we miss our steadfast companion.
Our youngest, entranced by the live nativity scene at Colbert Baptist Church's Bethlehem Marketplace this year, is beginning to treasure Christmas in her heart. She looked and looked at the live nativity scene as she stepped closer. She studied the mother, the father, and peered into the face of baby Jesus. As our daughter steps closer to the real-life burro beside them, the young man who's Joseph says of their companion animal, "That's a loyal creature, that's what that is."
Drinking hot chocolate in the church gathering area, she wanted to go back. And then go back again. A child who rarely stops to stand still, her quiet and thoughtfulness is remarkable. She seemed to try to etch the picture of the holy family in her memory. A family of three with their loyal creature nearby, far from home but not alone.
In our "cousins" gathering and Christmas pageant, she must have looked to this picture in her head as her model as she played Mary. Rocking baby doll baby Jesus, again our little girl was as close to still as she ever is, pondering these things in her little heart.
There was a small departure from Luke's gospel, though, brought to us by her brother who played Joseph. In our version of the story Joseph mostly worked with his John Deere tractor, hauling blocks along the holy family's route in Grandma and Pa's house. As the shepherds (older cousins) were notified by angels (my oldest daughter and the cousin nearest to her in age) with tidings of great joy as my father-in-law read the Christmas story, this Joseph arrived with a load of blocks on his tractor's green farm trailer. "I brought chocolate!" he announced. Little Mary must have needed some sustenance after all. She delicately tasted the chocolate, then went back to rocking the baby.
I've thought of the loyal creatures in my own imaginings, but I've never wondered what Joseph brought Mary to eat. Maybe chocolate would have been a good choice. I should ask my husband if he thought of bringing some to the hospital for me when I was in labor.
As I store up these things in my heart this Christmas, and as I miss my dog as we sit down to eat pork roast for another Christmas Day supper, I know that like Mary I am not alone.

Keel Cooler condensers require a K35 or K50 compressor or a Capri 35 or Capri 50 compressor.
Keel Cooler condensors are constructed in marine grade bronze and cupro-nickel. Both models require a 1 1/2" hole for mounting. The exterior parts are identical.
It is a requirement of any installation that the keel cooler be connected to the battery negative as a safety measure. This normally will connect the keel cooler to the bonding system and also the shaft or hull zinc which will protect the keel cooler.

The Dominican Republic is one of five pilot countries that implement a UN CC:Learn Project on Strengthening Human Resources and Skills to Address Climate Change in 2011-2013. The projects aim at supporting countries in taking a strategic and results-oriented approach to climate change learning. The project in the Dominican Republic is led by the National Council for Climate Change and Clean Development Mechanism (NCCCCDM).
During this high-level event the Vice President of the Dominican Republic launches the National Training Programme for Teachers on Climate Change Education for Sustainable Development. This training programme is based on a Climate Change Education for Sustainable Development course, originally designed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to support teachers in helping young people understand the causes and consequences of climate change, and bring about changes in attitudes and behaviours. More than 400 teachers at primary and secondary level are expected to be trained in 18 educational regions using the UNESCO course materials, which have been translated into Spanish and adapted to the Dominican context.
UN CC:Learn is a collaboration of 33 multilateral organizations with the aim to strengthen human resources, learning and skills development in Member States through country driven processes. It is included in the "One UN Climate Change Action Framework" of the UN System Chief Executives Board for Coordination (CEB) through the High Level Committee on Programmes (HLCP). The Secretariat is provided by UNITAR. The pilot implementation phase of UN CC:Learn in 2011-2013 is supported by the Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC).

Marvin Humes has joined a new group post-JLS with a completely different sound - he is now part of dance trio LuvBug.
The singer has been secretly recording as part of LuvBug for 18 months, a dance collective that he has formed with White N3rd and JKAY, and which will write and produce for other artists.
Marvin said: "LuvBug has been a project in the making for a long time now and I'm so excited that it's finally out there. Working with JKAY and N3rd over the years has been brilliant and I can't wait for everyone to hear all of our music.
JKAY added: "We all grew up listening to lots of house and garage and now seems like the perfect time to dip into those kinds of sounds again."
LoveBug have already signed a record deal with Polydor and their first single will be Resonance, featuring vocals from British singer Taley Riley which will be released on September 28.
They have also been working with Becky Hill who features on Oliver Heldens' number one single Gecko (Overdrive), MNEK and songwriter Wayne Hector who has written for Nicki Minaj and Britney Spears.
Marvin told The Sun: "A conventional solo career never interested me. JLS was such a big thing and my passion wasn't to be the front person any more. I want to write, produce and bring in different singers on projects.
"I look up to Calvin Harris, Avicii and David Guetta. They are mega stars now, even though they're DJs and producers."
LoveBug have a DJ residency coming up at Cafe Mambo and Pacha club nights in Ibiza.

scanf, _scanf_l, wscanf, _wscanf_l
Read formatted data from the standard input stream. More secure versions of these function are available; see scanf_s, _scanf_s_l, wscanf_s, _wscanf_s_l.
int scanf( const char *format [, argument]... ); int _scanf_l( const char *format, locale_t locale [, argument]... ); int wscanf( const wchar_t *format [, argument]... ); int _wscanf_l( const wchar_t *format, locale_t locale [, argument]... );
Returns the number of fields successfully converted and assigned; the return value does not include fields that were read but not assigned. A return value of 0 indicates that no fields were assigned.
If format is a NULL pointer, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, these functions return EOF and set errno to EINVAL.
For information on these and other error codes, see _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr.
The scanf function reads data from the standard input stream stdin and writes the data into the location given by argument. Each argument must be a pointer to a variable of a type that corresponds to a type specifier in format. If copying takes place between strings that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
|Security Note:
When reading a string with scanf, always specify a width for the %s format (for example, "%32s" instead of "%s"); otherwise, improperly formatted input can easily cause a buffer overrun. Alternately, consider using scanf_s, _scanf_s_l, wscanf_s, _wscanf_s_l or fgets.
wscanf is a wide-character version of scanf; the format argument to wscanf is a wide-character string. wscanf and scanf behave identically if the stream is opened in ANSI mode. scanf doesn't currently support input from a UNICODE stream.
The versions of these functions with the _l suffix are identical except that they use the locale parameter passed in instead of the current thread locale.

I believe your post > addressed #2, please correct me if otherwise. Ah yes, exactly. this is a very important point to bring up because the two uses are actually quite different in a fundamental way. #1 is safe-safe. in the fully safe meaning, as in all functional transformations one expects to be valid remain valid on a truely referentialy transparent pure function whether it is implemented internally with unsafePerformIO or not. This is exactly the proper use of unsafePerformIO. #2 unfortunatly, is the problem and I think the much more common use of unsafePerformIO because there does not exist another workaround in haskell for the top level initializer problem. It is an unsafe use of unsafePerformIO, meaning there are generally valid language transformations which change the meaning of programs using it and the fact it has worked so well is just a coincidence of implementation. The reason I only addressed #2 is because it is the only one that actually has a technical problem that needs to be addressed :) Part of my current interest in #2 is that I have been experimenting with some full-program optimization algorithms which could perhaps give substantial gains but would pretty much obliterate any uses of the unsafePerformIO global variable hack, and no pragma can save them. Before this, I never realized just how uncorrect the global variable use of unsafePerformIO was :) Thinking about this problem and realizing there is no in-language solution without giving up certain key optimizations is what originally motivated my previous concrete proposal based on the 'mdo' semantics.

A bounce house ban in one East Bay city. Walnut Creek is considering a ban on children's inflatable jump houses in public parks. The city says it just can't afford to let the popular kiddie party inflatables into its city parks.
Not only do the jump houses wreak havoc on the city lawns, but they require too much paperwork. Walnut Creek says the $40 fee it charges for a bounce house permit simply does not cover the cost of processing that permit.
Parents say the ban is only punishing the kids.
"Obviously it's going to be hard," said Erin Delanty, "because you know as a parent you are limited to activities for kids and birthday parties and you know if you are not allowed to do it it's just going to be too bad for the kids."
Danville, Pleasanton, and Clayton already have bounce house bans in place.
If you want to have your say on the issue, there's a city council meeting at 7 p.m. tonight at Walnut Creek City Hall.

Pow on pow on pow.
Sometimes the powder is just too delicious for only one ride, so hold your snowboard high as you bootpack to the top, and allow the Ride Men's Delridge Jacket to help you stay dry and comfortable in the process. Whether you're bootpacking or slogging up the skin track, the Delridge is designed to assure ample breathability and comfort, so Ride equipped this jacket with 37.5 Technology. This latest innovation by Cocona evaporates moisture and dries five times faster than most waterproof shells.
Ride also added a highly rated waterproof, breathable membrane and fully taped seams to keep snow out. The Active Core Temperature System enhances temperature management, and underarm vents dump out excess heat. The powder skirt, adjustable hood, and internal wrist gaiters seal out the cold, and the bevy of pockets easily accommodate ski passes, electronics, goggles, and more.

This jacket fits great and is super comfortable. Great for powder days or just cold days on hill. The waterproofing keeps you dry all day even in a mix snow/rain conditions.
This is one awesome jacket!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I bought this jacket for my fiance and he loves it! Plenty of length for someone tall and features to match. His favorite features are the pass holder pocket on the left wrist for easy scanning and the waterproof and breathability rating. He has worn it in six inches plus of snow and the jacket has performed as expected. One thing he doesn't love is that the collar can freeze up and become a block in front of your face. Otherwise, it was a total win. Great features at a great price! Just buy it!

Life Lessons From Natalie Portman
The usually impeccably gorgeous Natalie Portman looks a little off in the coverspread of this weekend's Parade Magazine. Maybe it's her hair? I've been loving her grown out locks, but something about this ages her too much. With the endearingly precious Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium hitting theaters in a few weeks Natalie shared a few of the life lessons she has learned in her wise, wise 26 years. Including her regret over one revealing scene in Goya's Ghosts that in the end wasn't even her. Here's highlights:
- On growing up famous: The summer after seventh grade, I shot my first movie, The Professional. Looking back, I realize that I might not have been that sensitive when I told people about it, and it came off as bragging. I was going to a small private school, and the other kids completely turned against me. No one would talk to me. I was so miserable that I had to change schools. But it made me think about how what I say affects other people, and I corrected my bravado.
- On trusting her decisions, and that regret: I've always been something of a pleaser: I want to make other people happy. That's not the worst thing. I mean, the fact that you like people and want them to like you is great—as long as you're not sacrificing who you are. I'm not someone who has a lot of regrets, but last year I did something that I wasn't comfortable with, and I'm really sorry I didn't listen to my intuition. There was a scene in a movie that felt inappropriate for me, but I didn't want to make waves. So I let myself get talked into it, even though it shook me up. From now on, I'm going to trust my gut more. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is say "no." No matter how much you plan and how hard you try, you can't predict the outcome of things.
As expected, Natalie sounds like she's got a great head on her shoulders and could teach a thing or two to her contemporaries. Just think, she's only in her mid-20s...and she's already corrected the silly mistakes of her youth. Sigh, kinda little miss perfect.

The message out of Wisconsin couldn't have been clearer Tuesday night: Voters wanted a strong leader to make tough decisions and lead a rescue from fiscal disaster.
Gov. Scott Walker kept his seat in a recall election that pitted him, a defender of taxpayers, against Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, who threw his lot in with public-sector unions determined to bleed state coffers dry.
Opposition hyperbole flourished. One protester, as the votes piled up for Walker, bemoaned to a CNN reporter that "democracy died tonight." Rubbish. About 2.5 million voters – an estimated 58 percent of Wisconsin's registered voters – showed up at the polls, and he said democracy died?
And consider this prevarication: CNN's website ran the headline "Walker survives recall election" – as if the governor's 7 percent victory margin could be considered barely scraping by.
No, no, no – you know what survived? Fiscal sanity.
Walker ran for and won office in 2010 on a pledge to reverse Wisconsin's gaping multibillion-dollar deficit by trimming government spending instead of relying on more burdensome taxes. And that trimming meant putting long-needed limits on unionized government workers.
And those workers screamed when Walker pushed his platform requiring public workers to pay more of a fair share toward their pensions.
They exploded in protest when Wisconsin legislators passed a bill logically limiting public-sector union pay raises to the rate of inflation.
They howled when the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that Walker and the legislature legally – and we would add responsibly – put a rein on public workers' collective bargaining rights.
Every step of the way, irate workers and their sympathizers clawed desperately at the power and taxpayers' money that unions have clung to since Wisconsin became the first U.S. state, in 1959, to institute collective bargaining rights for public workers.
That kind of bargaining on the citizen's dime cannot continue if Wisconsin's government is to remain solvent.
And the voters agreed. In the words of Henry Olsen of the American Enterprise Institute: "After $100 million and national attention for 17 months, the Wisconsin voters have said, in their polite Midwestern way, 'Yeah, we really meant it.'"
Union workers tried to feed the public a diet of red herring by flogging this as a labor-rights issue, when it was a fiscal issue from the get-go. What about taxpayers' rights? Would you like to see up-close what happens when public-sector unions get the upper hand? Buy a ticket to Greece.
Pundits are busily debating how Tuesday's results could affect this fall's presidential election. Henry Olsen called Walker's legislation a "defunding of the Democratic-party shock troops." Also, Walker's win could embolden governors to take similar brave stands to repair their states' economies.
It's an encouraging path to recovery, and the roadwork continued Tuesday in Wisconsin.

4 Responses to "Aromas"
Well, the first one focuses on an historic piece, there is a story that begs to be told.
The second one is an interesting landscape, lessening the historic question, yet crying out: "This is California."
The third one is fisherman's art, a squid enjoying a snack?
I've been fascinated with the Aromas landmark (the one along 101 just north of Prunedale?) since childhood camping trips to Big Sur in the 50's. I would love to learn the how and why of it…I remember seeing trucks parked there as we drove by in the early morning dark. W A few miles south, we always rolled down the windows so we could breathe the damp eucalyptus scent as we cruised past the hobo shanties deep in the roadside grove, and remarked on the rock outcrops, peering to see if there were any bandits on the lookout for travelers such as we. What an exciting day it was every year.
The window art is a trademark south west Native American depiction of Kokopeli (spelling?) who was a handsome womanizer, enchanting the ladies with his flute playing. He was a traveller from the south (Mexico) who made his way north to live in the Arizona/New Mexico area. Not sure why it's displayed at Moss Landing. Maybe it's to indicate that the business hosts live music.
bsk reaches a fascinating range and caliber of contributors. A compliment for the blog.

NEW YORK, June 25 (UPI) -- Customers were shocked Tuesday when a man walked into a McDonald's in Queens with a knife stuck in his back.
Andrew Hardy, 53, was reportedly stabbed after he attempted to break up a group of men who were throwing bottles at each other. He then managed to walk a block to the McDonald's, where he encountered customers with his shirt soaked in blood.
"He was cool and calm. But you could tell he was shaken up," said Michel Green, a friend of Hardy. "I went to pull the knife out, but someone said, 'No, no! It might have hit an artery!'"
Other customers rushed to help him and tried to make sure he did not fall back on the knife as he waited for an ambulance.
"I'm pretty sure he was on the phone talking to somebody in his family or a loved one," a witness told WCBS/Channel 2. "He was talking to them and telling them it might be the last time he's speaking to them, he just wanted them to hear his voice."
Hardy was taken to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center and was released later that day.

In fully-autonomous Ease Mode, the Companion takes over all driving duties.
It ensures passengers are brought safely to their destination and provides them
with updates about their route, road conditions and the car's performance
along the way.
The Companion alerts the driver to potential dangers before they're seen
by communicating with other vehicles and traffic systems.
The Companion supports drivers with information in two ways. Firstly, in a conscious way via the Head-Up Display that covers the vehicle's entire front windscreen. And secondly, preconsciously via Alive Geometry: a mosaic of sensor-activated triangles that extends across the top of the car's dashboard. The information that this provides intuitively helps the driver react more quickly to upcoming driving situations.
In Boost Mode, everything revolves around your driving performance.
That's why the Head-Up Display will show you ideal driving lines and braking,
steering or acceleration points directly in your field of vision.
Switch driving modes in the blink of an eye: simply touch the BMW
logo on the steering wheel to change between Ease Mode and Boost Mode.
The BMW VISION NEXT 100 sports dynamic wheel arches that help reduce
drag and lower energy consumption. Fully closed during straight-line driving, the wheel
arches remain flush to the car's streamlined body for optimal aerodynamics. But whenever
the car turns they move in or out of the vehicle body in perfect sync with the wheels.
The BMW VISION NEXT 100 fuses stunning streamlined design with a fully-closed
outer shell to deliver exceptionally low drag of just 0.18 cW. Its optimised aerodynamic
design creates a breathtaking profile that runs boldly from its iconic double front grilles
to tapered rear like a single aesthetic brushstroke.
The interior finishings in the BMW VISION NEXT 100 are 100% leather-free
and were produced using printable mono-materials. These optimise the production
process as they can, for example, be printed directly with paint. Easy to recycle,
they also enable a more ecologically efficient use of materials.

Hillary Clinton cleared the room after ripping off a chord on the butt tuba during a question and answer session in the Congo. The toxic release apparently occurred after a Congolese student was misinterpreted as asking what her husband, Bill, thought about China's growing influence. In response, Mrs. Clinton reportedly lifted her leg, and let loose an anal volcano with a lethal cloud so foul, the entire building was evacuated. A flash fire apparently started on-stage, but was quickly extinguished.
Eye, ear and nose witnesses report that after acknowledging the question, Mrs. Clinton responded, "Wait, I'm not going to be channeling my husband...but I WILL channel this!" Adjusting herself in the seat, Mrs. Clinton responded with anal thunder that rattled the windows. A live radio broadcast suggests it was initially thought to be heavy machine gun fire, which had people diving under their seats until the commentator responded, "GOOD LORD! What's that SMELL...???" While describing the green fog drifting towards the crowd, mayhem could be heard in the background with shouts of "My eyes," and "It BURNS, it BURNS!"
Several dozen people were overcome by the fumes and had to be hospitalized overnight. Scores of others remain in critical condition with injuries ranging from chemical burns to concussions. While it is agreed that Hillary should be allowed to toot her own horn without having to constantly be compared to her husband, Bill, it is also agreed that she probably shouldn't have popped off a bun shaker like that in public.
"A blast on the butt bugle of that magnitude probably should have waited until she was off-camera," said one reporter who declined to be identified. One observer expressed amazement that Mrs. Clinton didn't COMPLETELY expel her colon. "It sounded like the five note progression the Mothership used in Close Encounters of the Turd...I mean THIRD Kind," he noted from his hospital bed, recovering from busted eardrums. Fortunately, travel disruptions were at a minimum, but, it took several hours to clear the building of noxious fumes. Cadaver dogs training at a nearby military base had to be forcefully restrained after mistaking the area for a mass grave. Hillary apologized after the incident, blaming the outburst on fatigue and cheese whiz, and promised never to step on a duck like that again.

Social Question
Can you help me figure out the title of this animated series from the 80s?
Asked by mazingerz88 (19001) April 8th, 2014
Been wracking my brain for almost an hour now and so naturally, I go to Fluther for the answer so I don't end up jumping off a cliff. LOL
I only have vague memories of it. I think it's Japan produced but not certain. The main character, a boy, owns a small cute doll, a teddy-bear like toy character that holds a hammer.
In every episode, in order for them to get back in their own world, the teddy-bear toy has to strike the hammer down to open a portal. The teddy-bear is alive when they're on an adventure in another dimension but in the real world, he is just an ordinary toy.
That's all I can remember.

Fear in a little bit of heaven
Fear, fear. That is the overwhelming theme in Israel, which I visited recently.
It makes a stark contrast with the sheer beauty of the country and its smartly preserved historical sites. Israelis have created a modern, developed state with elegant cities and a thriving economy.
Life seems to continue normally in the big cities, such as Tel Aviv, with its strong restaurant culture and unexpectedly vibrant nightlife.
The kibbutz system is particularly impressive to a former romantic socialist such as myself. Many kibbutzim have become commercial undertakings, but in some the original ideals of communal life, usually in a rural town, and sharing as opposed to the pursuit of private property remain intact.
For a South African it is astonishing to see people giving up all private property, whether cars or houses, and everyone earning the same salary and donating all other income to the kibbutz, which then looks after their family.
In contrast with South Africa, Israelis boast that they have no rural poverty because of the kibbutzim and their focus on agricultural production. The people who live in the kibbutz we visited described their communal life as being "like a little heaven".
But at the Kibbutz Be'eri, just 7km from the Gaza Strip in the south of Israel, the illusion of an idyllic rural lifestyle was shattered. Residents told us that the settlement had been hit by rockets from the Gaza Strip, fired by their Palestinian neighbours. The fear of an attack was a daily constant.
"But we should live not to allow fear to control us," said Vivien Silver, part of the kibbutz leadership.
Fear keeps rearing its head in our discussions. It is fear that explains the omnipresence of soldiers in every town, big or small. It is the word that drips from the mouth of every commentator we meet.
Dr Yehudah Paz, of the Negev Institute for Strategies of Peace and Development, which promotes Jewish-Arab cooperation in Beer Sheba, said that the Jewish people "cannot survive if we are not strong, but we cannot survive if we are only strong".
After speaking to a range of stakeholders, my impression was that most Israelis believe in a powerful military state.
Well-known Israel journalist Nahun Barnea said there was room to discuss how the Israeli military should behave—but insisted that no reasonable person could argue against the need for a military response.
Barnea said force could be used, but not excessively. There was no need, for example, to shell Palestinian areas.
Most citizens of Israel are convinced that they are under siege and that the government must protect them. This, in turn, poses a threat to the democratic values of the country's founders.
Last week Israeli newspapers published a survey showing that more than 50% of Jewish Israelis think human rights organisations that expose immoral behaviour by Israel should not be allowed to operate freely.
The same number of respondents, polled by the Tami Steinmetz Center for Peace Research at Tel Aviv University, believed that there is too much freedom of expression in Israel and support the idea of punishing journalists who report news that reflects badly on the defence establishment.
According to the diplomatic correspondent of Haaretz newspaper, Barak Ravid, the implication is that most Israelis are content with the status quo, even if it means they continually live under threat of attack. "They don't see the need for change," said Ravid.
He pointed out that when the brother-in-law of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently went on radio to brand Barack Obama as an anti-Semitic president, he was speaking for many in the Israeli establishment who are uncomfortable with Obama's tough line.
"As a politician running for presidency he had to hide it, but it comes out every time and I think we just have to say it plainly—there is an anti-Semitic president in America," Hagai Ben-Artzi was quoted as saying.
Of course, there are still dissenting voices. Writing in Haaretz, Gabriel Sheffer, a political scientist at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, said: "Israel looks at itself in a one-way mirror. It tends to attribute all its troubles to the other side and protest that its hands are clean.
"The one-sided Israel approach that accuses personages, political parties and non-Jewish organisations as anti-Semitic when they criticise Israel ignores Israel's contribution to these manifestations.
"The one-sidedness is also seen in the crude accusations by Israel and diaspora Jews about US President Barack Obama and his administration [who] are accused of being anti-Semitic, anti-Israel and preferring Muslims and Arabs.
But Obama and his administration, in which there are many Jewish appointees, are very far from those positions."
Perhaps the most depressing aspect of the Middle East situation is the general pessimism about the peace process.
The first problem is the deep rift in the Palestinian leadership, with Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, refusing to recognise any agreement reached by Fatah, which controls the West Bank.
Israel will not recognise the elected Hamas government, which controls the tiny strip of land in which 1,5-million Palestinians reside, arguing that Hamas is bent on destroying the Israeli state.
The second stumbling block is the Netanyahu government's continued building and extension of settlements in the occupied territories, including disputed Jerusalem. It is this that underpins worsening relations between the US, which is trying to broker a solution, and the Israeli government.
And although there is general convergence on the need for a two-state solution, Palestinian refugees still want to return to the land from which they fled or were removed, whereas Israelis insist a right of return would be suicidal, as they would end up a minority in the land they consider theirs.
What constantly strikes one as a visitor is the contrast of the normal within the abnormal. Israelis ask me why the world and the United Nations are so obsessed with their tiny state, when there are worse conflicts in Somalia, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq.
Underpinning everything is the divisive power of major religions, amply demonstrated when we visited the old city of Jerusalem, which is partitioned into the Jewish, Christian and Muslim quarters. All three faiths regard it as their Holy City.
After witnessing such a deep gulf between these communities, after hundreds of years of coexistence, it is indeed hard to be optimistic.

Internet Access for the Student Residence!» Submitted by Vickey on Tue, 11/17/2015 - 01:18. »
Our high school students in Sorata are delighted to have ready access to the internet at the student residence, for the first time ever.
In recent years their teachers have increasingly assigned reports that require them to do research on the internet.
Because the minimum monthly charge for establishing an internet connection was $300, we were unable to offer internet on the student residence computers. So students had to pay for computer use at one of the local internet cafes, which are often crowded, noisy, and an expense that most could ill afford.
This July, a generous donation from visitors on the Quaker Service and Study Tour equipped 2 of the new student residence computers with affordable internet access via a cell phone simcard.

Bolivian Father's Day Celebration» Submitted by Vickey on Wed, 06/17/2015 - 02:22. »
Volunteer Orit Netter shares this story of Dia del Padre, the Bolivian Father's Day:
"One day during my volunteer stint at Los Amigos Quaker school in La Paz, things seemed a little different. Clearly something was up, but with my limited Spanish, I wasn't able to figure it out - until midday, when a teacher was selling home-made chocolates (like hot cakes!) in the shapes of ties and watches to everyone within a mile of the teacher's "lounge". Finally I understood. The following day was Día del Padre (Father's Day) in Bolivia, and clearly, it was an important day!
1 Minute Volunteers, Quaker-style - Can You Spare 30 Minutes?» Submitted by Vickey on Fri, 05/01/2015 - 04:00. »
It used to be that we had a hard time eliciting stories from the deeply modest Friends in Bolivia. Nowadays, as Friends emerge from centuries of oppression into the light of freedom, we get stories aplenty. There's such a richness of stories in fact, that our faithful translation volunteers are sometimes overwhelmed with the volume.
Could you give of your time to help Friends in Bolivia have their stories heard and re-told? If you're interested in volunteering to translate letters or reports (often with fascinating photos included) from Spanish to English, please email board member Jane Simkin at simkinjab (at) gmail (dot) com, or use our website contact form here.
We hope to hear from you, and hope you'll soon enjoy hearing Bolivian Friends' stories firsthand.

Scholarship Student Saves Children's Smiles» Submitted by blstanford on Wed, 04/01/2015 - 16:35. »
Children with painful teeth have a new dentist to help them develop a healthy mouth. Miriam Alave Condori graduated in dentistry from UPEA, the Public University of El Alto, last December with the help of a BQEF scholarship. (She was one of fourteen BQEF graduates last semester.) Miriam has completed five years of university studies. This year she'll also complete a nine-month internship in health centers.
Miriam discovered her love of children's dentistry during her fourth year, when her studies began to include working with patients. Miriam quickly discovered that in both the coursework and the clinic, she enjoyed pediatric dentistry the most. Miriam has observed that working with children under twelve requires communication with and cooperation from the child. The dentist, the child, and the parents all have to work together. The dentist also has to give tactful recommendations to help the family prevent further problems. Miriam enjoys this relationship building aspect of the work.

Future Aymara Teacher: Juana and Her Siblings are Going to School Thanks to Your Gift» Submitted by Vickey on Tue, 12/02/2014 - 20:47. »
Juana Ruperta Carani will graduate from high school this December with an excellent academic record.
She came to the BQEF Student Residence (aka Internado) in Sorata in 2009 as a timid 7th grader. The school in her home community of Chuchulaya only goes through 6th grade, and Juana wanted to be the first in her family to go to high school. Her stepfather, Luis, had applied for Juana to join the Student Residence so she could start 7th grade.
On the day we were to post the list of those accepted, he was anxious to confirm that Juana was included, so he and another parent from Chuchulaya left home at 2:00 am to walk and run in the rain to arrive by 8:00 am. Happily, both their daughters were on the list.

Bo Guagua Continues Studies at Columbia University

One Response to Bo Guagua Continues Studies at Columbia University
Columbia University's campus has become a little Communist China-town. Wake up, Columbia!
Did he buffalo Columbia for free tuition and room and board? After all these news reports of his father's financial corruption? Not to mention his mother's murder of a Britisher and her phony claim she was afraid for her two-faced son. I have no sympathy for this spoiled, obnoxious brat and that education slot should have gone to someone MORE WORTHY. Did they not read his disgusting responses online when everything came down?
U.S. scholarships should go 95% to U.S.-born students. If they want to give some to foreign students, give them to the Burmese students who fought for democracy, give them to Tibetan students to help them get rid of the murdering, thieving colonialist Communist Chinese in order to free Tibet. Give them to students of our allies.

Couples wins first senior major title
�I knew when it was going, it was a really good shot,� Couples said. �I didn�t think it was going to be short and trickle down the hill. I just felt like it was going to be right there. It was simple yardage�76 yards�and it hit soft. That extra rain certainly helped that shot, but I knew it was going to be close.�
Couples won his first senior major title, closing with an even-par 71 to match Cook (70) at 11-under on Westchester Country Club�s West Course�a longtime PGA Tour venue where Couples estimated he has played about 100 rounds in 30 years. Peter Senior (71) was third at 10 under.
Couples, the 1992 Masters champion, won for the first time this season after winning four times last year in his first season on the 50-and-over tour.
He won after having a non-traditional back procedure six weeks ago in Germany, and had to battle the stiff wind and a sore left hip that began giving him trouble during a nearly two-hour rain delay.
�I wouldn�t say I was playing awesome golf before the rain delay but it wasn�t bad,� Couples said. �After the rain delay, I just didn�t feel very good. I hit some good drives but I was not all that great.�
Couples joined Jack Nicklaus and Raymond Floyd as the only players to win the Players Championship on the regular and senior tours. He also earned a spot in The Players Championship, an event he won in 1984 and 1996.
�That�s great,� Couples said. �I get to play with the studs, so that�ll be fun.�
Cook held a share of the lead for nine holes but bogeyed No. 16 and missed birdie putts on the final two holes, forcing the second straight playoff and fourth overall in the event.
�I thought that putt was going in,� Cook said. �My eyes got real big.�
Tom Lehman (68) was fourth at 9 under, a stroke ahead of 2010 winner Mark O�Meara (69).
Simpson breaks through
At Greensboro, N.C., Webb Simpson won the Wyndham Championship for his first PGA Tour title, finishing with a bogey-free 3-under 67 on Sunday for a three-stroke victory.
The Raleigh native and former Wake Forest standout had an 18-under 262 total at Sedgefield Country Club.
George McNeill (64) was second, and Tommy Gainey (69) third at 14 under in the final event before the PGA Tour playoffs. Carl Pettersson (69), Vijay Singh (65), Madison�s Jerry Kelly (65), Kyung-tae Kim (66) and Charles Howell III (67) tied at 13 under.
Pettersen triumphs
At North Plains, Ore., Suzann Pettersen rallied to win the LPGA Safeway Classic, overcoming a nine-stroke deficit with a 7-under 64 and beating Na Yeon Choi with a par on the first hole of a playoff.
In the playoff, Choi�s second shot on the par-4 18th went into the water to the right of the green, and she missed a putt for bogey before Pettersen sank her winning putt.
Pettersen, coming off a victory Aug. 7 in the European tour�s Ladies Irish Open, won her second LPGA Tour title of the year and eighth overall. The Norwegian star jumped to No. 2 in the world behind Yani Tseng.
Choi finished with a 73 to match Pettersen at 6 under on Pumpkin Ridge�s Ghost Creek Course.
Christina Kim shot a 78 to finish a dismal 11 over, but it was just enough to keep her in the 10th spot in the points standings for the U.S. Solheim Cup team that will take on their European counterparts in late in September at Killeen Castle. Rosie Jones then completed the 12-player team by adding Vicky Hurst and Ryann O�Toole as captain�s picks.

Menendez Goes on Tour
- August 16, 2005 |
- By David Savona
The Partagas Quality Tour will have Menendez making appearances in 50 cigar shops through the rest of 2005. At each stop, he will share three simple cigars, each made with only one type of tobacco, so the smoker can taste how one leaf in a blend tastes and contrast it with the complexity of the final product. One cigar will be made only with volado, a light-bodied leaf of filler tobacco; the second will be made with seco, a medium-strength leaf; and the third will be made with ligero, the strongest of tobaccos. After smoking the components, consumers will get a free Partagas cigar for comparison.
Menendez once worked with his father, Alonso, making Montecristos and H. Upmanns in Cuba before the Castro government took over. Since departing from Cuba in 1960 with virtually nothing left of his family fortune, Benji, as he is nicknamed, has been at the helm of some of General's most successful non-Cuban brands on the market, which in addition to Partagas include the Dominican Montecristo, Montecruz and Macanudo.
Menendez spent 14 years at General, from 1983 to 1997. He then took a job with the Spanish tobacco monopoly Tabacalera. He became an Altadis employee when Tabacalera merged with France's SEITA in December 1999, creating Altadis S.A. In 2003, he returned to General to become the senior vice president of premium cigars.
"During his 52-year tenure in the cigar business," said Bill Chilian, director of marketing for Partagas cigars, "Benji has learned a thing or two about the importance of blending tobacco to achieve a cigar with a balanced taste."
Davidoff's own tobacco guru Hendrik Kelner employed a similar version of this method at the 2002 Las Vegas Big Smoke and at a special seminar at the Davidoff Madison Avenue store in New York City in 2003. "The goal of the seminar is so that the smoker can know what is happening with the cigar," Kelner said in a 2003 interview. "Why the cigar is too strong, or bitter, salty or acidic."
Attendees of Menendez's tour stops can buy discounted packages of Partagas cigars. For a listing of events, visit www.cigarworld.com.

Usually at the helipad
I see them stumble-dance
across the hot asphalt
with crokersacks over their heads,
moving toward the interrogation huts,
thin-framed as box kites
of sticks & black silk
anticipating a hard wind
that'll tug & snatch them
out into space. I think
some must be laughing
under their dust-colored hoods,
knowing rockets are aimed
at Chu Lai—that the water's
evaporating & soon the nail
will make contact with metal.
How can anyone anywhere love
these half-broken figures
bent under the sky's brightness?
The weight they carry
is the soil we tread night & day.
Who can cry for them?
I've heard the old ones
are the hardest to break.
An arm twist, a combat boot
against the skull, a .45
jabbed into the mouth, nothing
works. When they start talking
with ancestors faint as camphor
smoke in pagodas, you know
you'll have to kill them
to get an answer.
Sunlight throws
scythes against the afternoon.
Everything's a heat mirage; a river
tugs at their slow feet.
I stand alone & amazed,
with a pill-happy door gunner
signaling for me to board the Cobra.
I remember how one day
I almost bowed to such figures
walking toward me, under
a corporal's ironclad stare.
I can't say why.
From a half-mile away
trees huddle together,
& the prisoners look like
marionettes hooked to strings of light.
The old woman made mint
Candy for the children
Who'd bolt through her front door,
Silhouettes of the great blue
Heron. She sold ten-dollar potions
From a half-lit kitchen. Chinese boxes
Furnished with fliers & sinkers. Sassafras
& lizard tongues. They'd walk out
Of the woods or drive in from cities,
Clutching lovesick dollar bills
At a side door that opened beside
A chinaberry tree. Did their eyes
Doubt under Orion as voices
Of the dead spoke? They carried
Photos, locks of hair, nail clippings,
& the first three words of a wish.
On Fridays he'd open a can of Jax
After coming home from the mill,
& ask me to write a letter to my mother
Who sent postcards of desert flowers
Taller than men. He would beg,
Promising to never beat her
Again. Somehow I was happy
She had gone, & sometimes wanted
To slip in a reminder, how Mary Lou
Williams' "Polka Dots & Moonbeams"
Never made the swelling go down.
His carpenter's apron always bulged
With old nails, a claw hammer
Looped at his side & extension cords
Coiled around his feet.
Words rolled from under the pressure
Of my ballpoint: Love,
Baby, Honey, Please.
We sat in the quiet brutality
Of voltage meters & pipe threaders,
Lost between sentences . . .
The gleam of a five-pound wedge
On the concrete floor
Pulled a sunset
Through the doorway of his toolshed.
I wondered if she laughed
& held them over a gas burner.
My father could only sign
His name, but he'd look at blueprints
& say how many bricks
Formed each wall. This man,
Who stole roses & hyacinth
For his yard, would stand there
With eyes closed & fists balled,
Laboring over a simple word, almost
Redeemed by what he tried to say.

We've seen this in the Black & Decker VB100 Vacuum Brew but we have yet to try this with a more classic vacuum brewer. It's interesting to note the process of making coffee this way has been a fixture in Japanese and Scandinavian homes for over 40 years.
"Upside-down" vacuum brewing separates coffee from grounds for clean, exquisite taste. The coffee maker works like this: water is held in the lower portion of the coffee pot and the coffee grounds are placed in the upper pot. When the water begins to boil, the vacuum process causes it to rise up through the tube to mix with the coffee grounds. The newly brewed coffee runs back down to the lower pot ready-to-serve, while the grounds stay in the upper pot. Makes 5 cups.
