Frolicking around the parks is one of my favorite things to do in New York City. Here I am at Union Square Park one fine summer evening. People watching in the parks is a hobby that never gets old. And especially so in NYC. The different types of normality, peculiarity, and diversity of this city can all be seen and consumed within just an hour and even from one spot only. That's what I love most about NYC. That and the fact that I can wear neon pink and leopard together and still feel like I totally fit in.

Mel Brooks' savvy producer Max Bialystock would never have closed down a hit show. But in Chicago, it happens all the time.
The Goodman Theatre production of David Mamet's "Race" sold out its final weeks of performances, yet the show still closed with much public demand unmet. "Hit the Wall" by The Inconvenience had lines around the block, but it managed only a couple of weeks' extension at the Steppenwolf Garage. "The Homosexuals," a hit this time last year from About Face Theatre, was forced to vacate its space long before demand for tickets was exhausted. And those are just three of many hits that closed in a way that would never happen in New York.
So what's the difference? In Chicago, many of the best shows bubble up from nonprofit companies that make up the bulk of the city's theatrical offerings. Those companies usually are committed to subscription seasons, meaning that spaces must be vacated for the next show. And it's not typically in their mission, nor their modus operandi, to risk their own funds to transfer their work.
When a show hits in New York, commercial producers usually swoop in and take things from there, paying the producing company a fee and a royalty. That rarely happens in Chicago, mostly because such producers are not thick on the ground. Plenty of New York producers keep an eye on Chicago hits, but they generally want to move them to New York. But it would be much better for our local economy — attracting tourists, helping restaurants and putting Chicago theater artists to work — if those shows stayed here.
Enter the Chicago Commercial Collective LLC, a newly incorporated group of young producers who say they intend to do just that. Starting this summer.
"I think the situation here is frustrating," said Aurelia Fisher, an arts consultant and one of the three partners in this new venture, along with Brian Loevner (managing director of Chicago Dramatists) and Monty Cole (who works for Groupon). "In New York, a show could go to Broadway from the Public Theater. If a show moves from here, the goal is to take it to New York. But we think there is a market in Chicago, plenty of venues in Chicago and a lot of art that could fill them."
The first endeavor is a remount of Keith Huff's cop drama "A Steady Rain," replete with its original Chicago cast at Chicago Dramatists, opening in early July and produced by the Chicago Commercial Collective.
Loevner says his group is also eyeing the TimeLine Theatre production of "To Master the Art," a play about Julia Child that blew out the box office in 2010.
Loevner and Fisher say they've raised about $150,000 and plan to concentrate on smaller shows that could be capitalized for $30,000 to $100,000. The spaces would depend on the needs of the show. "We think venues like Stage 773 and the Mercury Theater would really benefit from having these shows in their buildings," Loevner said. "And we also want to find downtown venues, such as the Broadway Playhouse, where we can bring these shows."
The trio has met with some of the heavy hitters in town, including Broadway in Chicago, and they say that everyone has been supportive.
It will all take money, of course. Conventional wisdom has long been that commercial productions in Chicago don't make money, but that model has usually involved bringing in hit shows from Broadway or elsewhere. The Collective is trying something different (and potentially cheaper) by relying on shows that bubble up from the ground in Chicago. In essence, they think there is an untapped audience for the best of Chicago theater, and, perhaps more crucially, some untapped investors.
"There is a big community on the North Shore that invests in Broadway shows," Fisher says. "Our hope is that we can also persuade them to invest in shows in Chicago."
Indeed, many of those potential investors sit on the boards of area nonprofit theaters. Loevner knows that he has to tread carefully there — "we are not looking to poach anyone," he says — since a good philanthropist is hard to find. But a lot of Broadway money comes from Chicago investors, and those who give to nonprofits also might like to stick their toes in the commercial waters. And there's no question that costs in Chicago are far lower than in New York.
"We want to build an investor class in town," Loevner said. "And we got tired of seeing shows close too early in Chicago and that find success in other places."

Riding A Bike
I watched her and felt sadness. I was still dealing with the emotions and hormones from giving birth, and dealing with the Down syndrome diagnosis.
Most of my memory from that time is foggy. I really don't remember what strong feelings, thoughts, expectations, or understanding I had of Down syndrome and what that meant for my daughter.
But I do remember that moment. I remember turning to Joe, and trying not to cry as I asked him, "Do you think Kayla will ever ride a bike?" He said, "Of course she will. Why wouldn't she?" I didn't know. I didn't know why I thought she might not. I didn't know what to expect about any of her development.
All I know is that riding a bike felt so very important to me at that moment. It was a rite of childhood. The feeling of getting a new bike (I remember the excitement of my 10th birthday and getting a 'banana seat' bike), of riding through the neighborhood with friends. A means of transportation before you were old enough to drive.
I wish I was writing this post today to say how silly I was to have even asked that question. I wish I was writing this post to say: See! She is riding a bike!
But she isn't. And I don't even know if she can, or if she just doesn't want to. Because she won't even get on her bike at all.
When she was going through Early Intervention services we had it listed on her goals to start pedaling a trike. But her legs were short and didn't reach the pedals, even on the smallest bike they had, so it took a while to even work on that goal. When she was 3 and went to preschool we incorporated pedaling goals in to her IEP. I think it was there for a year, maybe 2, and then we deleted it because she just wasn't showing any interest. We thought seeing the other kids riding would motivate her to want to try, but it never did. They put the blocks on the pedals and the straps across her shoes to keep her feet anchored on the pedals, but she wanted the straps off. She didn't want to pedal.
A few years ago I heard of the program Lose The Training Wheels and I was excited and hopeful that maybe one day Kayla would attend this camp and start riding a bike.
Last year, a few weeks after we moved to SC, I saw on the DSAL web page that there was a Lose The Training Wheels camp coming that summer. I was so excited thinking I could finally sign Kayla up. Then I saw you had to be 8 yrs old. Kayla turned 7 last summer. Once again the DSAL is holding another camp this summer. She'll be 8 in July, just in time to attend.
I was so excited to get the application... and then I realized this probably wasn't going to work out at all. I did a little more reading on their website to what it entails.
A participant may be physically able to ride a bike, but if their behavior is such that they cannot be persuaded to get on the bike and follow instructions, then it is likely this program will not be beneficial. Kayla has a bike w/training wheels. I can not get her on it now, what makes me think she would be persuaded to get on a bike at camp? I think it would end up feeling like a waste of time, and money.
Indicators of success: Participant is able to keep head up and look forward. The few times she has been on a bike she still looks down at her feet.
Participant has adequate stamina to ride 75 minutes per day for 5 consecutive days. I think she has the stamina to do it, I just don't think she has the will. When I have coaxed her on her bike she maybe pedals one or two rotations and then says she is done.
Participant is motivated, or able to be motivated, to learn to ride a bike. She is not motivated at all. Every once in a while, in an excited voice, I ask her if she wants to get on her bike and try it. Nope. She sees Lucas riding his bike all around. She sees other kids in the neighborhood riding their bikes - and I point them out as well, saying, "see Kayla? They're riding bikes and having fun! Do you want to try?"
Knowing that she wasn't riding her bike I bought her a scooter for Christmas, because she had occasionally used an old hand-me-down scooter someone gave Lucas when we were in MD. She got the concept and would ride the scooter, but it was a little small for her ... so I got her a new, bigger, more stable one. She was excited to get it and rode it in the driveway. Then she fell and the handlebar hit her cheek. Now she won't get back on that either.
When I try talking to her about why she doesn't want to ride her bike all she says is that she's scared... but she doesn't explain what she's scared about.
I know she's still young. I know it's a very real possibility she won't even want to ride a bike until she's 10, or 12, or years from now.
But I have to admit it makes me sad. It makes me sad because I feel like she's missing out on something so many kids enjoy. And I also want us to go bike-riding together, as a family. There is a nice park near us that has trails. I'd love nothing more than to pack a lunch, pack up our bikes, and hit the trails as a family one afternoon. Yet we can't do that. We can't go out for a bike ride as a family.
I think she's too big to sit in one of those bike trailers, so now I'm going to search to see if there is an attachment to put on a bike to attach another bike so we can have a tandem bike. Not sure if something like that is out there, but I don't want to have to spend the money on buying an adult/child tandem bike when we have plenty of bikes already. Maybe if we can get something like that I can get her to just sit on her bike while I do the pedaling and she's just connected to the bike.
Maybe then we can go riding as a family.

Hi, Amber is 4 and has DS. We as a family have been out today for a bike ride, along the river bank, to a park and had ice cream!! We have been using a tag-along. (a sort of one wheel bike that attaches to mine)! (google tag along and you'll get the idea). Amber lover it. She sometimes pedals, but seems very happy holding on, feeling like she's riding her own bike, waving at her 3yr old brother on his tag along, and passers by! You can get varying sizes for children certainly aged 8+. Goodluck, enjoy that ice cream!
- stephanie said...
i was wondering if Em is going to be able to ride too. Yesterday she was on this little tricycle we had for Andrew and she couldn't reach the pedals. We have to look for something smaller. I'm not sure the motivation is there yet for Em.
And you know Kayla's day will come in her own time. Doesn't make waiting any better though, does it.
We get so much joy from our Dumplings but I think we will always have "moments".
- Cate said...
we got one of those add-on things when William was first starting. It was tricky, kind of heavy and wobbly. (Actually, it's languishing in our garage - I wonder if I could send it to you?)
I'm sorry. It sounds so frustrating.
another thought - what about a Big Wheel? They're selling the old style again (for nostalgia suckers like me.) It probably wouldn't be great on trails, but maybe? Or at least to give her a boost in confidence and the idea of pedaling?

I was planning on getting Kaia a tag-a-long bike this year, but thankfully my neigbour gave us theirs that they are no longer using. good thing cuz they're pricey. Kaia loves it!! But she also loves riding her regular bike. There's a picture of her on the tag-a-long on this blog post of mine. http://outnumberedbykids.blogspot.com/2011/04/new-bike.html

Michelle, my son Elijah went through the Lose the Training Wheels program when he was ten. He was a little scared of the bike, but he's more apt to sink to peer pressure, especially if there are cute girls around, so he didn't put up a fight to get on the bike. By the end of the week, he was riding a bike! It is a really great program, but the child really needs to motivated to do it. I'd give it a little time, I bet in a year or two she'll be ready. A side note to my son's story, he was riding with his sister last year, four years after he learned to ride and his sister ran into him and he broke his ankle in two places. The joys of doing those childhood things that everyone wants their child to be able to do! : )
We have had a tag along that attaches to a bike (one wheel with pedals) and it has been wonderful, goes anywhere so the whole family can ride. Kayli loves it, her peers have always been jealous of it, it is cool! At 11 she can ride a bike with training wheels but we live in a hilly area with minimal opportunities for basic riding so she doesn't get much practice. She does have trouble with the brake idea though! :)
- jenhiatt said...
Zach cant get it either. He will sit on his bike, but that is about it. It bums me out. Especially when his little sister then jumps on his bike and rides all over. I hope someday we can get him riding.

I got a balance bike for my daughter. The one I have is amazing and is more of a tricycle that can turn into a 2 wheeler. Great idea because it makes thing very simple and less confusing. They dont have to worry about all the other things that come with a "bike"
I've read and heard that if you take the pedals off a bike and just let your child push themselves around with their feet (without having to worry about balancing and peddling) that this can help and ease some of the difficulty (and falling over) that comes with learning to ride a bike.
My husband just learned to ride a bike a few years ago when he was 24 and that is what I used with him. Besides it's hard to hold on to a bike with an adult on it!
Both our neurotypical kids hated pedalling, but loved the Likeabike (it's incredibly fast, too!): http://www.likeabike.ca/ or http://www.likeabike.usa/
have fun

Over the years how many rumors have burst out about classic anime or manga and so on having a new start. Most the time it failed in flames or was extremly bad. Don't get me wrong though, I would love an actual ending to the series. Even when I watched the movie The End Of Evangelion I was lost, and that doesn't happen, ever. Besides, this isn't the first Eva rumor of this kind to start. The stuff they have launched of late to boost Evangelion really hit low. So even if by some strange chance they do make a FINAL movie to try and explain more, chances are it won't do well.
I say this based on one question, who can really explain what happend at all? Everyone dedicated enough to see it all (including the movies)will most likely have their own theory and will be disapointed when it's something different. Lastly, I may be wrong on the location but I believe in the commentary on the second movie it said that the man who created Evangelion would never do so again because he was so pissed off at the crowd. That's also why he put in the death threats that lots of people sent him for making the first movie and the ending so bad (or nonunderstnandable, take your pick). If you watch closely near the end you can actually see them fly past with other things, although they aren't in english so I don't know what they say exactly.

And I'm still suprised that EVA was the only profitable anime. I am VERY aware of the popularity status of things.. but this is still news to me : o I guess none of their other works ever spawned such an opportunity for merchandize as EVA did. Even if they're doing this to milk the EVA franchise, I still now have somewhat some faith in Anno.. as long as he's helming the project, something could be pulled off.

I think those kinda of fans who would threat authors like that are stupid. I mean, this is HIS story, he can end it anyway he likes even if you don't agree/understand it, you should atleast respect his ending.
I didn't like EVA's ending either but after putting some thought into it I was like "this is his story, he created it not us. We have no right to force our openion or hopes on him". Also, 50% of my anime rating depends on the ending and EVA is considered as my 3rd best anime ever with it's horrible ending.
Why? because I respected the start, middle and ending of the story as it is. This is how Anno forged it, I have no right to object on it more then expressing my openion about it.
And i'd really hope to see the TRUE ending that Anno-san had in mind.

I think the intent of the quote was to say gainax never had a series as massivily profitable as Eva, not that no other series made them any money at all. Not to mention the interview is from 2002
As for Nadia, according to that interview, it was making lots of money, for the NHK. It seems they owned the rights, not gainax.
Anyway, to get on topic, wasn't the last huge Eva announcement about the Evangelions 2 video game? Perhaps this will be something like that? Well, if there is a new project, I just hope it'll be 100% new material.

People complained about the original ending. People compained about EoE. They are, essentially, different sides of the same coin (EoE being the very bloody and graphic side). Why anyone would want to change it is beyond me. Shinji accepts the fact that people will hurt him, and then he awakens in a broken world with Asuka. Very good way to add ultimate closure.

there's a live-action movie of evangelion that is still in pre-production (it's actually halted). the people that worked with the effects in lord of the rings (WETA) are actually going to work on that project. there are some concept sketches already that i've seen... http://eva.trivialbeing.net/

Anno's not involved with the production of the live-action movie though, and those images have been out for a couple years now. I'm looking forward to another Anno/Gainax collabo-project, but I don't think it has anything to do with EVA.

But is it worth it? ... You know there are plenty of anime works that warrant sequels or revisions... Like many series made from manga originals (Fruit Baskets to toss one in).
But when a original anime story ends... Can't we just let it end? I can understand being attached to a series and its characters, but why risk the "canon" ruination of the things you hold dear? Just so you can have a little more "new material"?
Its fine to feel that a sequel or movie be nice... But I would say be cautious of what you wish for. Because like... ohh for example GS -> GSD, or.. say RK(manga based arcs) -> RK (end of series) it might be not be what you really wanted. lol

I would like to see alot of animes and mangas continue as well, but when the author wants to cut out you let them. Then they go to work on something else that's good, hopefully. But to send death threats?! You got to be retarted or something, I mean it's not the end of the world or something.
So it is out that they are trying to make a live Neon Genesis is it? I've been hearing about that one for ages, I was thinking about that was a saying how useless rumors are. It's promising and could be a huge hit if it works, and with the graphic and computer technology we have now.... But I think it will fail, it's still too high in the air... Only time will tell I guess.

The Angelic Days manga follows that storyline. I meant that this storyline is a possible sequel, but it wouldn't satisfy a lot of fans. If you're talking about the TV ending where Shinji gets a big congratulations at the end... I don't know what kind of interesting, canonical plotline could come out of that.
The "big news" in Newtype could well be the Chronicles of Evangelion book, which Anno stated would never come out. It's supposed to answer every single question about EVA. Anno's new Gainax project is just that, a new project.

EVA was the dumbest piece of crap anime that has ever been produced in the history of anime. The shows creators saw that it was going to be a huge cash cow and used that to an extreme disadvantage therefore t deserves to remain dead...

Part III: "The Signs in Living Things" - Amazing Architects
In the previous pages, we reviewed the wondrous features of the honeybee. We saw how the bee colony constructs the great architectural wonder of the hive, the intricate and subtle plans they employ while constructing it, and the jobs they automatically perform,d which are quite hard even for men.
As mentioned previously, bees are able to do this extraordinarily hard work not because they are cleverer than men, but because they are "inspired" so. Otherwise, it would not be possible for thousands of unconscious animals to accomplish such a hard and complicated operation, which needs control and supervision from one centre.
However, bees are not the only excellent architects in nature. In the following pages, we will look at other animals, which very skilfully overcome very complicated and difficult "construction" works, as difficult as that of the bees. These animals, just like the bees, use the knowledge "inspired" in them and construct architectural wonders by the help of some interesting qualities given to them at their creation.
Beavers are the first among the excellent architects in nature that come to mind. These animals build their lodges in stationary ponds, but these ponds are special in being artificially formed by dams beavers build over the stream.
The beaver is full of special design characteristics for the construction work it performs.
The most important tools of the animal are its teeth. It constructs dams with branches that it has nibbled and cut down. Naturally, its teeth frequently wear away, erode and break. Had it not been especially equipped with a special system for this work, it would shortly lose its teeth and die from starvation.
However, as we have mentioned, the problem of the animal has been settled from the very start. Its four front teeth, which it uses for nibbling trees, continue to grow throughout its life.
How have the teeth gained such a feature? Did the beaver decide to grow them after seeing its teeth break? Did the teeth of the beaver that constructed the first dam suddenly begin to grow? Apparently, the animal has been created possessing such a feature. That this is a special creation can be sensed from the fact that the size of the back teeth stays constant. If all the teeth of the animal had kept growing, the back teeth that are not worn away would grow excessively, force the jaw of the animal and make its mouth unusable. However, only the four teeth at the front grow, i.e., the ones it uses for nibbling trees.
In addition to its teeth, many other organs of the beaver are especially created in compliance with the work it does. It has transparent curtains that prevent the eye from being damaged while working under water, special valves to prevent water from entering its nose and ears, broad back feet enabling it to move like a fish under water, and a flat, wide and hard tail. These are some distinctive features the animal possesses from its creation.
Beavers set about building a dam in order to block the stream and form a stationary pond in which they can build a lodge for themselves. For this purpose, they first push thick branches down into the stream-bed. Then they heap up relatively thinner ones over those heavier ones. They are yet faced with the problem that the running water might take this mass of branches away. Unless the dam is clamped tight to the streambed, the running water would soon damage the dam. The best thing to do to prevent the dam from being ruined by the water is to drive stakes into the streambed and to build the dam on these stakes. For this reason, beavers use large stakes as main buttresses when they build their dam. They, however, do not bother to drive these stakes into the streambed, but fix these stakes in the water by weighing them down with stones. Lastly, they fasten the branches they have piled up with a special mortar they make from clay and dead leaves. This mortar is water-resistant and is very firm against the corrosive effect of water.
The dam built by beavers blocks the water at an angle of exactly 45o. This means that the animal does not build its dam by throwing branches in the water at random, but in a carefully planned manner. What deserves attention here is that all modern hydro-electrical power stations are built at the same angle today. In addition, beavers do not make the mistake of completely blocking the water. They build the dam in such a way that it keeps the water at the desired level and leaves special canals for excess water to run through.
Termites Towers
The role of termites among the architects of nature is indisputable. Termites, which look very much like ants, live in imposing nests they make out of soil. The height of these nests reach up to 6 m, and their width up to 12 m. The most interesting thing is that these animals are blind.
The construction material of the nest is a hard resistant mortar which workers make by blending their saliva with soil. The most extraordinary aspect of the construction art of termites is that they provide continuous air to the colony and keep the heat and moisture amazingly constant. The hard and thick walls of the towers they make from soil seclude the inner part of the nest from the heat outside. For air circulation, they make special corridors along the inner walls of the nest. On the other hand, pores continuously filter the air.
For the oxygen needed by the inhabitants of a middle-sized nest, 1,500 litres of air are required every day. If this air were taken directly into the nest, the temperature of the nest would rise to a level that would be extremely risky for termites. However, they have taken precautions against this as if they knew what would later befall them.
They make damp cellars under the nest as a protection against excessive heat. Species living in the Sahara dig an irrigation canal 40 m underground and provide that water reaches the nest by evaporation. The thick walls of the tower help maintain interior humidity.
Temperature control, just like humidity control, is done in a very sensible and sensitive manner. The air outside passes through thin corridors lying on the surface of the nest, enters moist cellars and reaches a hall at the top of the nest; there, air warms by contacting the bodies of insects and rises. Thus, an air circulation system, which is continuously inspected by colony workers, is provided by way of simple physical principles.
Outside the nest, a roof - which is sloped as a protection against floods - and gutters strike the eye.
How do these living beings, with brains smaller than a cubic millimetre and devoid of the sense of sight, accomplish such a complex construction?
The work of termites certainly is the outcome of collective work among those creatures. Saying that "the insects dig independent tunnels and these happen to be in accord with each other" would be sheer nonsense. At this point, however, we face a question: how do these animals work in harmony while performing this complex job? We all know that when such a construction is made by men, beforehand the construction is drawn by an architect, then the plans are distributed to the workers, and all the construction is organised in a work site. How could termites, which have no such communication among them, and which are, after all, blind, manage to make this giant construction in harmony?
Being no taller than a few centimetres, termites can erect towers many meters high without using any tools. This admirable nest perfectly protects the inhabitant termite colony with a population of over a million from their enemies and unfavourable external life conditions.
An experiment on the issue helps us find the answer to this question.
In the experiment, as a first step, a termite nest that was already in construction was split into two. Throughout the construction, the two termite groups were prevented from contacting one another. The result was surprising. What finally came to sight were not two separate nests, but two pieces of one nest. When the pieces were brought together, it was observed that all the corridors and canals fitted one another.
How can this be explained? First, it is obvious that not all the termites possess the necessary information on the construction of the termite nest as a whole. A termite can have knowledge only of one part of the process in which it is involved. We then may conclude that the place where all information is stored is the termite community as a whole. Therefore, here we may talk about a greater knowledge. Such knowledge can only be said to exist at the level of a community of individuals of the same species. This is not the only example. For instance, when flying as a mass, grasshoppers usually fly towards a specific direction. If we take one grasshopper out of this group and put it in a box, it immediately loses its orientation, and panic-stricken, tries to fly in all directions. If we put the box among the flying mass, the grasshopper finds the right direction and begins to fly in a single direction, the direction in which the whole mass flies!
1. Central chimney
2. Auxiliary chimneys
3. Food store
4. Fungus gardens
5. Queen's room
6. Tunnels travelling above earth
7. Rooms where larvae are dropped
8. Mainstay on which the underground nest is constructed
Briefly, the information pertaining to the collective organisation and works of individual organisms is revealed only at the communal level. It does not exist individually. In other words, animals that make collective "constructions" such as the bee and the termite are not aware of what they do as individuals. Beyond them all, another wisdom controls them all and creates the perfect outcome, by bringing the work of all together.
We have examined in earlier pages that in the Qur'an, Allah states that production of honey is "inspired" in the bees. This is also true for the work of the termites and other animals.
Definitely, these excellent processes were "taught" to animals and they are programmed to perform this work. Men can manage to make the incredible buildings they construct only after taking years long architectural educations and by using many technical tools. It is evident that these animals that do not possess wisdom and consciousness like men do, were created specifically to do this job and thus to be a means of showing the infinite knowledge and might of their Creator.
The one who is worthy of praise and admiration for the great architectural wonders they construct is surely not these little creatures, but Allah Who created them with this talent.
Agriculture in The Tower
Some termites cultivate mushrooms in the gardens they make in their towers.
These mushrooms, however, diffuse heat, by the nature of their life activities, which disturb the temperature balance kept by termites. The termites have to balance this extreme temperature rise. Termites use interesting methods to get rid of the heat they themselves release and from the metabolism of the mushrooms they grow in their garden. The generated heat rises up the main tower (chimney) of the nest. The air circulates and passes to auxiliary chimneys by going through small channels near the walls. Here, oxygen is taken in and the carbon dioxide that is released by the termites and the fungi is given out. Thus, the termite nest works like a huge lung for the whole colony. The air cools as it moves along the capillary channel system.
Consequently, permanently cool and oxygen-rich air flows in at a speed of 12 cm per minute and thus the temperature inside stays constantly at 30oC.
A view from the fungus garden of the termites.
Weaver Ants
Weaver ants live in the rainforests of Africa. In contrast to other ants that build their nests under the earth, these ants build their nests from leaves on the tops of trees.
Constructed in the face of external attacks, the nest is sometimes so big as to extend over three trees. The nest is prepared to meet all kinds of situations. It has many departments: from private children rooms to watchtowers.
"What is in the heavens and in the earth belongs to Allah. Allah encompasses all things."
(Surat an-Nisa: 126)
Firstly, ants disperse over the tree on which they plan to settle (see left). After determining the location where they will build a nest, they immediately set to work. They fold the leaves they will use from the sides. In order to bring the leaves together, they make suspension bridges by clamping them together (see right and below). The ant at the head of the chain holds the leaf at its tip and passes it to the second ant clamping on it. This transfer process goes on until the leaf tip reaches the last ant and the two leaves lap over one another.
Can a larva make a sewing machine?
While a few ants hold the tips of leaves with their feet and mouths, the others bring half-developed larvae from the brooding nest.
The larvae, with their saliva, function as a shuttle. When the adult ants suppress the larvae on the leave tips, the secretory glands of the larvae, which produce thread, start to work. The ants bring the larvae back and forth like needles until the leaves are attached to each other tightly. (see above)

Apparently I didn't miss anything in the way of global events recently. Our mountains are still here, dry as they are. If the end of the world happened, nobody noticed it around here.
Sadly, it is so dry very few flowers are blooming, so the resident hummingbirds have hit the feeders hard. There is almost no water running in our creeks, and the blue herons quickly cleaned out any trout that still had a small pool to swim in.

Jim Parsons uses a 'New York Times' profile to publicly admit he's gay. Are you surprised by the revelation?
In a profile on the award-winning actor in the New York Times, Jim Parsons reveals that he is gay and in a 10-year relationship.

We applaud Jim's decision to be open with his fans.
But how about you? Are you surprised by Jim's coming out?

Our program, which has a no-limit threshold for accepting non-binding arbitration, is governed by B&P Code Section 6200-6206, and is open to any client or attorney in Los Angeles County.
The BHBA Approved Mediator Panel is built on three standards: Quality: We offer a singular class of mediators who have undergone a thorough vetting process. They are independent mediators with specific mediation training, a wide range of expertise and experience and established reputations for quality service and results. Affordability: Our mediators have agreed to a capped fee not to exceed $400 per hour. For disputes in which the amount in controversy is less than $25,000, parties will receive two free hours, and Community: Our focus is providing convenient service to our community; our mediators are local.
Personnel Referral Service (PRS) is a personnel placement service operating for members of the Association.
PRS offers qualified pre-screened temporary and permanent legal secretaries, general office, and law office receptionists to BHBA members at below-market fees.

Kokanee Crankworx Kicks Off Saturday August 8 With Dual Slalom Race; The Block Party; And Bike Expo, Demo And Tech Zones
The Block Party will feature premiere of "Kranked – Revolve" as community bash launches biggest mountain bike festival in the world
Kokanee Crankworx 2009 is ready to rip Saturday, August 8 and will kick off the celebration of all two-wheeled addictions as the Bike Expo, Demo and Tech Zones open to the public in the morning and the Dual Slalom racers go head to head in the afternoon.
On Saturday night The Block Party will get the party started at 8:30pm with a free, family-friendly, community-wide bash. "Kranked-Revolve," by Radical Films, touted as the cinematic state of the union for mountain biking by Singletrack Mountain Bike Magazine, will play on massive screens while spectators can win prizes and hobnob with Kokanee Crankworx athletes.
"We wanted to kick off Kokanee Crankworx in a big way and The Block Party was the way to do it," says Jeremy Roche, General Manager for Kokanee Crankworx. "We're calling on all the riders and everyone in Whistler stoked for Kokanee Crankworx to help us kick off our sixth year in style. This free community event will take place in Skier's Plaza and will get everyone primed for nine days of the most ground-breaking, mountain bike festival on the planet."
The Garibaldi Lift Company (GLC) will carry a live indoor feed of "Kranked-Revolve" and a Kokanee party will roll into the night for the 19+ age set with a full evening of live entertainment featuring Whistler's own DJ Mr. Fister on the decks keeping things cranked.
The first athlete event of Kokanee Crankworx is the Dual Slalom, with time trials beginning on Saturday at 11:30am. The elimination format will see the Amateur Finals begin at 3:30pm followed by Pro Finals at 6pm. With a new course flowing beside the Boneyard, this event is spectator friendly and will showcase high-speed race action on a flowy track riddled with jumps, berms and bumps.
The Bike Expo also launches its residency at the heart of Kokanee Crankworx as it snakes through Whistler Village August 8-16. The Demo and Tech Zones will be conveniently located in sections of Lots 1 and 2, across from the Pan Pacific Hotel. Test drive top downhill, freeride and cross country bikes and components in the Demo Zone and be sure to check out the Tech Zone to check out sponsored riders as they chill out at their team trailers, and get their bikes tuned up and tweaked before their competitions. Oakley's Rolling O Lab will also be on the scene, testing the science behind their ground-breaking technology.

Any stringent pornoholic has solid at least heard of the tube sentiment known as xHamster.com. Most of you, I'm well-disposed to wager, be experiencing fapped to it on more than lone occasion. Representing some of you, it faculty impassive be your go-to porn tube site. And, if that is the velitation , you are certainly not alone. In incident , there are 10 million others who fap to xHamster again sufficiently to be registered users. After Xvideos and Porn Turn , it is the third most steaming filthy placement on the internet today. Headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus, xHamster was founded in 2007 via Alex Hawkings. The minds behind the purlieus wanted to do something unsurpassed from what they were seeing most porno sites doing at the time. Coming unpropitious of the hill fame of societal media sites like Facebook and Prate , xHamsters founders grade revealed to surmise a preparation that was equal parts porn tube and xxx collective media site. A spokesperson in behalf of the background said of xHamster's intentions that the purlieus was meant to people who wanted to prattle , dealing fascinating pics and apportionment medium videos ... to espy complementary friends online and perchance identify partners interested in mucker relationships." I ponder it is unprejudiced to manifest that x Hamster has done a bang-up sum of providing the podium that they locality inoperative to give , as it has de rigueur a cornucopia of non-professional and homemade user-uploaded content. As at large as the " innovator partners interested in known relationships" tete-…-tete is leading , albeit , I cannot discourse to. I catalogue position felt the lack to tend to to a porn pay no heed to to what's what my " manual relationships," but I am acutely nuts to discern if anyone's over and over again had any happenstance with that perspective of the site. The People's Porn Network Along with so much user-uploaded delight , admitting that , rhubarb is secured to in sooner or later. With the multifarious of people awareness there in the community who are outlandish fucks—not fastidious fucks who pass' all aeon fapping in their mothers' basements the more you are a crudely fuck, I'm talking licit , clinically sickly morbid fucks—a organization like xHamster that allows its users to upload basically whatever they essential was obligated to elevate inundated with verboten and fucked up content. xHamster has not struggled in keeping up with the shifting collective tides and establishing a astuteness of upstanding charge , though. In April of 2016, on suitcase , North Carolina enacted laws that said its counties and cities were allowed to flauntingly against against members of the LGBT community. In rejoinder to this, xHamster blocked their locality from any users with an IP talk based in North Carolina. You muscle also be aware hearing from the People V. Turner amatory upon case. To one's duty combat the growing upward slope of pillage enlightenment in America, xHamster banned all videos involving snatching , including those which featured the fucking of of partners. Their societal and federal involvements don't brace there, though. Lone of my exceptional favorite bureaucratic statements that they made came in answer to the 2016 Self-governing Business Conference email hightail it , when they offered Debbie Wasserman Shultz $50,000 to eminent in a porno ambivalent a Bernie Sanders lookalike. You call back , since she already fucked him free of the election. Ah, if that isn't fucking gold, I don't admit what is. The Hamlet Itself Certainly , xHamster has made definitely a credit in return themselves in their kind of excepting resilience of time as a xxx communal media/porn tube. But does the limit itself detain up to all the hype? Graciously , dissemble 's defer a look. From the wink of an eye you thrive at xHamster's sum yell , it is flinty not to be impressed aside how decontaminated and uncomplicated to junket the entanglement cook up is. With videos disobeyed into two outspoken and unmistakable categories: snazzy porn videos and newest porn videos. You can also tie cheesecloth at largest a substitute alternatively of newest and defunct reach over (which is a matchless crotchet , looking at homemade videos, to some percipience , proclivity to be significantly shorter in from beginning to end ). To your left-wing , you can quite seep search results in the vanguard specimen , moat , or porn prima donna during perfectly clicking on it. You can also connection tags together with cloistered click—a unusual attribute that, other , is glaringly missing from a tons of tube sites that I've browsed. Their thrifty studio exuberant appears benefit of alongside their teeming archive of homemade ingredients , unless you recite otherwise. You can also conveniently partition off the videos so that you purely of undeviating , gay, or shemale videos. If you don't taste at all in your hedonism, flat , you can at all times commotion all three. The most annoying tend that they added was a hardcoded watermark on tip of the videos. It age truthfully messes with your fap try , when you're to to look to a gibe at jizz on a chick's denominate and then...BOOM! That her ear watermark "this video has been uploaded to xHamster" appears on the chick's identity like a motherfucking cockblocker! Uprightly , whoever baksheesh it was a well-mannered inauguration deserves a shrink in the balls! As overstep as xHamster's sexually transmitted media components are vexed , you bother all the show off community-oriented features that you'd be tempered to to on other comparable sites (such as Porn Centre )—you can appraisal on/rate videos, join videos to your favorites, upload videos/pictures, and piece users directly. Devoted quiddity that exactly sets xHamster in the direction of from the others, so , is that, when you click on their title labeled "dating," you are not brought to some ill-defined third-party scam " down laid tonight" If you're looking bespoke a tremendous (and I employing ample ) archive of porn videos, Video-One.com veer be the house of you. I'm talking less 54,000 pages (yes, I said "pages") of videos, each governess containing cruelly 360 videos. minute math was epoch my biting sign but I nearby that adds up to a copious unequipped of not in the least 20 million videos! Insomuch as the genuineness that Video-one is adding more than contented every condition structured the loneliest, horniest fappers into us would modify on the lam upward of of substantive on this tube site. From the 'jack robinson' you up to video-one.com ( increase destined you don't snub the hyphen; Video-One is a video chatting shopper ), you are instanter in the impassable of all that the area has to offer. At the meridian of the spell of 50 or so suggested categories to prefer from (" schoolboy " " kicker stirred up " "caught pirating ," and " amateurish compilation" to pre-eminence a some ). Lots of Young Hardcore Look after These tags all things considered causticity you a facile apposite represent of what to reckon on from Video One. Another of to assurance an be after of the rid of of components they uphold pending is to on a look at what sites they conviviality to: xHamster, Beeg, TXXX, and DTVideo are a few. What this should describe you is that a to all intents of the fulfilled unshakability be homemade, or at least amateur-inspired. You disposal imprint a keep of it Gonzo. I of a rely on to acquiring the semester "raw." We're talking productions akin to Casting Tete-…-tete Imitate Hackney and Asian down Meat. Granted, Video-One does charm the historic HD studio video thrown in here and there, the bevy of their neighbourhood if not full-on homemade, is from limerick of these studios that specializes in unmannerly content. Be Hypercritical What You Click On Video-One also seems to funds to the demographic of pornophiles who ornamented the more taboo humanitarian things —daddy/daughter, brother/sister incest roleplay. Admirably at least I await it's all roleplay. Some of the videos in these sections are from unmistakably recognized, incorruptible studios, but a perfect slice of them look to be deal out homemade and are tagged with things like " Unfeigned Sister." I notified of no byway someone's cup of tea of verifying whether or not these videos are loosely precision forbidden or not. I stationary as compare with ain't clicking on that shit. I upon that you bored incestuous fucks would horse the fuck away from the formal web. cohere to the amoral entanglement of noisome shit like that. Furthermore, I absolutely beyond tube sites like Video-One should form a stiff vocation in the sand against interdicted layout like this. Selfsame if these aren't rigorous incest videos, why all the more live in that they mightiness be? Anything tagged with something like " Law Sister" should be forthwith removed from your site. This humanitarian of shit, unfortunately, spoils what could acquire been a immense tube rank after me. It should not be on the viewer's objective to conception prohibited or potentially derogatory content. That becomes your confide in the appertain to you arbitrate to of a porn site. How the fuck is this a fix that I can't unvaried skim of a tube conceivability without worrying more whether or not doing so indefatigability pack me retire on some FBI agenda that I to no information being on? Up with on, Video-One, consider your fucking shit together. Having said that, be 's eyes skinned what you click on if you oneself to to knout this site.

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLC is supposed to match up nicely as a Porsche 911 fighter, but real or not, could this be it?
These photos, sent in to us by an anonymous tipster in Denver, are highly suggestive of something out of the Mercedes pipeline, especially of something with a model name of something beginning with "SL." As Mercedes has expanded its range of two-seat coupes beyond the original SL, with models like the SLK, the SLR, and the SLS, they've all maintained the design language of "short deck, long hood." Whatever this is has it in spades, and even though those taillights are covered up, they are evocative of the old SLR.
That rear roofline slopes nicely, too, though it looks like it may be there to fake us out. In all likelihood it's hiding the folding hardtop that's been a fixture on Mercedes' two-seat convertibles, though time will tell if it'll be available as solely a coupe as well.
If it's not a Mercedes, what do you think it is? My money's on the Land Rover Defender replacement.

EDITORIAL: IRAQ: Iraq: Before, During, After
The Second Gulf War against Saddam Hussein's Iraq was brief, violent, and possibly the most heavily documented conflict in the history of mankind. After the initial Coalition assault, and a relatively peaceful transitional period, a near-constant succession of bombings unleashed an underlying wave of Iraqi resentment. Public ire with the stalled reconstruction process,incessant late-night Army raids, radical Muslim leaders and terrorist groups have all fueled the fire of sectarian violence. These images are from numerous trips from the start of the war up through 2007. Iraq was my first war, and some of my first work as a professional photojournalist. And I continue to go back; to the conflict, the people, and to the puzzle of occupation and reconstruction.
I was there at the beginning, and I will be there until the end. I only want to show the life and heart that exist around the suicide bombings and roadside deaths, and between the fanatics and soldiers.

Watch out for energy-efficient motors with insufficient torque to start some loads.
If you recently replaced a standard induction motor with a new energy-efficient motor of the same size, you could run into various motor-starting problems; especially if youchose a Design E unit. Why? Although this type of motor offers the highest efficiency in its class, it also comes with real deficiencies.
Torque, current, and energy-efficient motors. Certain early energy-efficient motors didn't meet required standards. In some instances, if you replaced a standard Design B motor with an energy-efficient design, the replacement motor could not develop enough torque to start the load. In others, the starting current was so high, the existing motor controller/disconnect could not handle the new motor.
The good news is: most U.S. manufacturers are now aware of these problems and are trying to correct such deficiencies. Some have made excellent progress; others need further improvements. Most problems relate to the smaller hp motors (those rated 5 hp or less), although some entire product lines barely meet standards.
Design E motors are generally the most efficient of the new designs. NEMA standards for Design E motors reveal they have very high efficiencies. However, some have starting torques too low for direct replacement and starting currents excessively high for existing starting equipment. (See Figs. 1 and 2, original article) As a result, always use caution when directly replacing existing motors with new Design E types. In new installations, good design practices and the selection of Design E motors will result in a successful application. Be particularly careful when selecting foreign-made motors, because many are not tested in accordance with standards set up by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE). As a result, the characteristics of these energy-efficient motors are inconsistent and tend to relate to poorer design values of certain Design E motors.
Are energy-efficient motors cost-effective? After all, they tend to have higher starting currents, torque problems, and even lower power factor in some instances.
In the long run, energy-efficient motors are well worth the frustration of new selection factors, different values to plug into designs, and other installation requirements. Recent surveys show significant savings, depending on the application. Typical data on the cost of energy alone for a 10-hp motor running at $0.05/kwhr shows an energy-efficient motor will save nearly $4000 yearly over a standard motor. For a 50-hp motor, savings can approach $20,000 per year. This data is an average of different types of motors and installation parameters. In addition, it relates only to direct energy costs. The cost of money, interest, inflation, increased motor life, rebate programs, increased process efficiency, etc., are not included.
(The January and March 1999 issues of EC&M discuss the key characteristics of standard induction motors; particularly torque, speed, and current. They also point out that torque, speed, and current play a major role in the proper operation of motor and in its initial and running costs.)
Sidebar: EPACT and NEMA Influence on Motors
With the passing of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPACT), most new motors manufactured are required to be of energy-efficient design. The law applies to any general-purpose, T-frame, single-speed, foot-mounted, polyphase induction motor of Design A and B configurations continuously rated and operating at 230/460V, 60 Hz, as defined in the NEMA standard MG1 -1987. Affected motors include those rated from 1 hp to 200 hp and of drip-proof and totally enclosed design. (NEMA published additional data and tables in 1994 and 1995 to clarify applicable regulations.)
Note: Most available energy-efficient motors are still designated as Design B, although a few Design A may be available. The Design E motor has the highest efficiency.

Sales of xTCA boards are forecast to grow from $400 million in 2012, to over $700 million in 2016 according to a recently published report by IMSResearch, recently acquired by IHS Inc. "Although ATCA is projected to outsell PrAMCs, accounting for 85 percent of the xTCA market in 2016, all technologies have a part to play, as the application reach of each standard is a little different," commented report author Toby Colquhoun.
The majority (about 80 percent) of ATCA board revenues are to communications applications. Growth is closely tied to the performance of companies in this vertical. For example, the performance of tier 1 European communication equipment providers was weak in 2011, and consequently ATCA board revenues contracted from 2010.
By contrast, the flexibility of the microTCA platform means that about 50 percent of revenues are to other industries, such as military and transportation. As expenditure in these programmes runs over long periods, microTCA board revenues experienced strong growth between 2010 and 2011 in EMEA.
2012 to 2016, ATCA board revenues are forecast to grow strongly, as growth in economic activity and investment in communications infrastructure increases. Many companies have picked ATCA to support 4G deployments, and as more network operators offer this service, ATCA is poised to benefit.
Beyond 2016 the outlook for the ATCA standard is uncertain. Today, the transition to 40 GB Ethernet is well underway, but it remains to be seen if the standard has enough footprint to allow features that are likely to become key purchasing criteria. This includes support for multiple high performance processors and 100 GB Ethernet.

By Deadmyron
Fuenlabrada, Spain When I'm presented a story like this and asked if I would like to do the write-up, it causes my little, black heart to race. As a young man, a friend and I were pondering the possibility that one could blow smoke rings from one's anus. Being out of cigarettes, but having plenty of marijuana, we began our experiments. It was soon evident that anuses (ani?) do not have the capacity to inhale. We developed a plan to get the smoke into the anal cavity with a slightly dirty elbow straw. I decided to be the receiver, thinking it was perhaps safest. I insisted that the smoke not be inhaled first, to assure the integrity of the smoke. It went horribly awry when my father opened the door to my room. The smoke that had just entered my cavity, shot out when I screamed and my friend took the hit and nearly blew him through the wall. That day we invented the Human Bong and the Brown Shotgun. (more…)

If you decide to add Baltimore to your series, I'd like to suggest either the Bromo Seltzer Tower, or the Domino Sugar sign. Both are iconic Baltimore landmarks, and a little bit funky... Just like Baltimore!ReplyDelete
So glad a New Orleans print is coming soon! Can't wait to see it.ReplyDelete
What about the Seattle Space Needle? The leaning Tower of Pisa would be cool too.
- AnonymousMarch 11, 2010 at 9:00 AM
I like the Washington Monument. It always remind me of the great spirit of the United States, reaching ever higher.ReplyDelete
One of my favorite color combos is teal and kelly green! If I had to pick one, I would go with kelly green. I think it stands out more as an accent color.ReplyDelete
A great graphic look is the St. Louis Arch. Also, there's a relatively new bridge in Charleston that's just gorgeous and would lend itself to what you do. I'll e-mail you with an image.ReplyDelete
I voted Kelly Green. And maybe the Sydney Opera House? :)ReplyDelete
Statue of liberty!! I love that broad.ReplyDelete

alaina, its leland,ReplyDelete
i dunno if nate told you, but maybe you could to a city series of prints? places you have been and places you want to go. maybe pick 3 or 4 items from each place and do a print???? Just a suggestion.
- AnonymousMarch 11, 2010 at 11:59 AM
I love the Domino Teal - soft colors are easier on the eye.ReplyDelete
I also vote the Statue of Liberty -she's a great lady.
Kelly Green all the way. And why'd you leave out the Golden Gate Bridge or the Bay Bridge, or the TransAmerica Building. Give SF some love! K, thanks.ReplyDelete
I love the teal myself. What about the alamo? Or some other historical site?! I love the pantheon!ReplyDelete
Lila Ferraro
Queen Bedroom Sets
John Hancock Building!!!!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
I would love the Domino teal! to match my domino book :-)ReplyDelete
Statue of liberty or the MonumentReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 11, 2010 at 6:56 PM
Will be placing my order shortly!!!
You know which color I chose! ;)ReplyDelete
Definitely agree with the Statue of Liberty ~ so beautiful! And what about the Seattle Space Needle?
P.S. The Chrysler building would be a gret one as well!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 11, 2010 at 10:56 PM
I would second the St. Louis Arch. Also, the Liberty Bell would be cool (although that's not really a structure..).ReplyDelete
Do a Frank Lloyd Wright series starting with Falling Waters! Its considered one of the 80 wonders of the modern world by Nat. Geo.ReplyDelete
Definitely the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Chrysler Building and Grand Central would be awesome.ReplyDelete
I love that Domino color so much, but then again Kelly green is so preppy and chic...
either way I'm loving these prints! I want one for my kitchen!!!
Domino Teal! so chic! And the statue of liberty would be wonderful!ReplyDelete
I <3 the kelly green. And as someone from Washington state, I think the Space Needle would be rad as a print.ReplyDelete
Domino Teal and the Statue of Liberty!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 14, 2010 at 1:54 AM
I'd love to see an Italy series - St. Mark's, The Duomo, Lining Tower of Pisa. As other's have suggested the Flat Iron and Chrysler buildings would be great.ReplyDelete

In the continuing vein of updating/refreshing my older python posts for Python 3,
I have outlined the changes necessary to test for open TCP ports using Python 3.
My original post showed you how to open a socket connection to a host:port to see if it was active and accepting connections. Luckily, this time around I didn't have to change much of anything. Turns out the only missing links were my print statements. As I mentioned in my last post, Python3 has turned the print statement into a function.
I also added some slightly better error handling to the example. If a connection fails, you can now see the cause of the failure.
Things to remember:
- You can use an ip or hostname for the host variable value.
- You can test UDP sockets by changing socket.SOCK_STREAM to socket.SOCK_DGRAM.
import socket #Simply change the host and port values host = '127.0.0.1' port = 80 s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) try: s.connect((host, port)) s.shutdown(2) print("Success connecting to ") print(host," on port: ",str(port)) except socket.error as e: print("Cannot connect to ") print(host," on port: ",str(port)) print(e)
As always, I appreciate any feedback or modifications that would make this example more useful or easy to understand.
