The Medium M3 Tank (or M3 Lee or Grant) was an American medium tank. Originally designed to modernize U.S. tanks roster, it served as an interim tank until the arrival of the Sherman.
The Medium M3 Tank was a tank whose design began in 1940. The production of this tank was caused by the perceived need of the U.S. Army for a tank armed with a 75 mm gun like nearly all its counterparts in Europe, as existing M2 Tanks had an obsolete 37mm gun and the development of a model with a 75mm gun in a rotating turret would have forced an intolerable delay because of American plants not having the capacity at that time to produce a turret that was large enough to house a 75 mm weapon.
The M3 design was quite odd-looking, with a huge and tall silhouette imposed by its Wright (Continental) R975 EC2 air-cooled engine, the 75mm gun was cast in an offset sponson (taking inspiration on the Char B1 bis and the Churchill Mk.I) with a 37mm gun in a small turret and a broadcast machine-gun in a small cupola on the turret commanded by the driver (only on American versions, the British version had a different cast turret without the cupola). Even knowing that the M3's design was flawed the tank was quickly mass-produced (the hull-mounted gun could be produced faster), to supply the United Kingdom in North Africa that was in urgent need of improved tanks, with most of their equipment was left on Dunkirk beaches in 1940, to face the Axis forces.
The M3 hull was used for the M7 Howitzer Motor Carriage nicknamed M7 Priest by the British Army and the M12 Gun Motor Carriage.
Operational History
The M3 first saw action in North Africa on British service in 1942. It become a nasty surprise for the Axis Force who were unprepared for the 75mm gun that could engage their tanks beyond their effective range such as German Panzer III & IV and Italian M13/40 & M14/41. Only Semoventi had a chance against it, the FlaK 88 was also proven to be deadly for the British tanks. Americans also joined the campaign during Operation Torch with the M3 but also bring with them the new issued M4 Sherman. Even if it performed well during the campaign, the introduction of the long-barreled Panzer IV, its drawbacks (such as its high profile, hull-mounted gun and riveted hull), made it replaced from the front-line as soon as its successor was available.
Between 1942 and 1943, 1.386 M3 Lee were supplied to Soviet Union (410 were lost during shipping) through the American Lend-Lease program. Officially designed "M3 Medium" to distinguish it from the lend-leased M3 Stuart labelled "M3 Light". It proved to be unpopular for its above-mentioned flaws, even more serious against a better-equipped enemy (which led to Soviet crews to gave it the nickname "coffin for seven brothers"). The Soviet use of the M3 quickly declined after mid-1943, due to the high production rate of the better T-34, they were relegated to secondary and quieter/less-action fronts such as the Petsamo–Kirkenes Offensive in 1944 in Norway against German forces equipped with captured french tanks such as the SOMUA S35.
The M3 saw limited use in the Pacific and South-East Asia due to the minor role of armoured warfare in these theaters. Some were used by the US Army during the Gilbert and Marshall Islands campaign and the Battle of Tarawa in 1943. About 900 M3s ordered by the British were sent to the Indian Army due to the arrival of the Sherman in Europe, some were used during the 1944-45 Burma Campaign during which they performed well especially during the Battle of Imphal against obsolete Japanese Ha-Gos and captured M3 Stuarts.
The M3 Lee/Grant was officially declared obsolete in April 1944. Nevertheless it saw action until the end of the war in September 1945.
Some were captured by Germany and used under designation Panzerkampfwagen M3 747(a).
In Girls und Panzer
The M3 was found by the future Rabbit Team in a hangar, serving as a shelter by rabbits and was assigned to them.
JSDGF Captain Ami Chōno organize a mock-up match during which it fought under the designation D-Team. It stays in retreat during the entire match but when all other teams who had allied themselves against A-Team were destroyed by the Panzer IV, the first years panicked. And when they tried to flee, one of the tracks was found stucked in the mud which cause the engine to break down as they forced it.
During the training match against St. Gloriana Girls College, the M3 didn't really shine as due to the inexperience of the crew they easily panicked under St. Gloriana bombardment and abandoned the tank. It was destroyed soon after.
During the tournament first round match against Saunders University High School, the M3 landed into a trap and became surrounded by six Shermans. They manage to broke the encirclement with the help of the Panzer IV and the Type 89. Miho then set a trap to lure Saunders tanks where one was destroyed conjointly by the M3 and the StuG. The M3 was then destroyed by the Firefly when persuing their flag tank.
During the tournament quarter-finals match against Anzio Girls High School, the M3 spent half of the match persued by two Semoventi. After Anchovy's CV.33s were all destroyed the two tank destroyers were called as reinforcements. Until now roles were reversed, while taking pursuit the M3 destroyed one of the Semovente and destroy the other one after it reunite with the P26/40.
During the tournament semi-finals match against Pravda Girls High School, after Ooarai was surrounded and bombarded the M3's main gun was destroyed. After they broke the siege, during the pursuit the M3 acted as a shield for the flag tank and was ultimately destroyed by the IS-2.
During the tournament final match against Kuromorimine Girls Academy, the M3 shined brighter than in previous matches. After escaping the hill battle and nearly get drift away by the river stream, it participates at the destruction of the Maus and manage to destroy two of Kuromorimine's most deadly tank destroyers by taking advantage of their reduced maneuverability, the Elefant and the Jagdtiger. The first by trapping it in a narrow alley where it was unable to maneuver and shoot its shell disposal hatch at the rear. And for the second, the M3 was pushed backward by the massive tank at its mercy, the M3 came in contact to avoid its mighty gun and manage to throw the overarmored tank in a canal using its own speed not without being destroyed when trying to broke contact. Without those two kills Leopon Team's last stand to isolate Kuromorimine's flag tank would have been much shorter. They earned the title "Heavy Tank Killer".
During the alternate-manga quarter-final match against Anzio, it took down a CV.33 and a M13/40 before becoming the first victim of Anchovy's P26/40 by a well placed side shot.
Der Film
In the exhibition match against St.Gloriana/Pravda, the M3 was part of Miho's detachment to assault St. Gloriana tanks on the golf course. But after Chi-Ha-Tan reckless charge, Pravda managing to break Ooarai backguard and the retreat in the city, the M3 tried to release some pressure on their flag tank by attempting to repeat their "Heavy Tank Killer" tactics from the finals against the IS-2. But unfortunately the IS-2, that has a more powerful engine than the Jagdtiger, managed to get the M3 from out of its blind spot and send the M3 fly away.
During the match against All-Stars University Team, the M3 was part of Morning Glory and survive the engagement against Azumi's Pershings in the forest. After the retreat in the theme park, the University storm in the park with the T28 Super-Heavy Tank as a shield, during the panic retreat the M3 got separated from the main group that was encircled in the amphitheater. Rabbit Team then destroyed the support of a ferris wheel the was on a hill overlooking the amphitheater which opened a gap in the University formation allowing them to escape. After that the M3 destroyed two two Chaffees that sandwiched Anzio's CV.33 on the rollercoaster just before being destroyed by the Centurion.
Little Army 2
Ooarai Girls Academy fielded their M3 Lee as flag tank during the Commemerative Cup repechage match against Bellwall Academy. The tank was placed alongside almost Ooarai tank as an ambush on the top of a highway interchange while the Panzer IV lured some tanks, Bellwall's T-44 and Jagdpanther took the bait and were welcome by a fierce fire barrage where the T-44 was destroyed however it is unknown who destroyed it. The M3 was later harassed by Bellwall's Panzer II squad and managed to destroy one of them forcing them to retreat. After that it is unknown how the tank performs but it survived the match.
Fierce Fight! It's the Maginot Battle!
The M3 participates at some mock-up matches before the match against Maginot. During the one of the battles it manages to decommission the Panzer IV (due to Saori's inability to command) and during another it took a direct shot of the StuG.
During the training match against Maginot Girls' Academy, the M3 after being saved from a deadly salva from the B1 Bis by the Panzer 38(t) destroy the massive tank by shooting its air duct (B1 Bis' "Legendary" weak point). The M3 also destroyed Fondue's SOMUA S35 by taking advantage of her astonishment after Eclair's tank being destroyed.
Gekkan Senshado Magazine
Koala Forest High School fielded two Grants Mk.I (British designation of M3 Grant) during the tournament first round match against Viking Fisheries High School. They were part of the main force that was lured at the river bed by Viking Panzer I & II, one of them was destroyed by the flanking Panzer IIIs while the whereabouts of the second are unknown.
Das Finale
During the 41st Winter Continuous Track Cup first round match against BC Freedom High School, the M3 was seen bumping in the Mark IV stuck in the river bed to dislogde it, it was then stuck like the other on the wooden bridge exchanging fire with BC tanks. After the miraculous evacuation of the bridge and BC retreat in the bocage, the M3 Lee was often seen in pair with Leopon Team and their heavily armored Tiger(P) until it was destroyed near the end of the match by an ARL 44.
During the tournament quarter-finals match against Chi-Ha-Tan Academy, the M3 spent the first part of the match by being harassed and exchanging first with Chi-Ha-Tan tanks. Since at the lake the M3 was the first to spot one the Ka-Mis. It then engaged both the two Ka-Mi with its turret and other Chi-Ha-Tan tanks with the fixed gun and protecting the flag tank. After the evacuation and leading Chi-Ha-Tan into a trap, the M3 is seen persuing the retreating tanks.<to be continued>
- While only designated as M3 Medium Tank by Americans, the British gave it two names depending of their turret pattern. The American turret with the machine-gun cupola is named M3 Lee in honor of Confederate General Robert E. Lee while the British casted turret is named M3 Grant in honor of Union General and 18th President of the United States Ulysses S. Grant.
- The M3 Lee featured in the Steven Spielberg film 1941 watched by Rabbit Team is in fact a mocked-up M4 Sherman as Spielberg didn't manage to find a genuine M3 Lee.
- The Grant is probably most famously remembered when the Command version was commanded by Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery during the Second Battle of El Alamein. It is now stored at the Imperial War Museum in London.

About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife, Gyutos are a multi-purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. "Gyuto" translates to "cow sword." If you want one knife to do it all, This is it. Starting at 180mm, Gyutos can reach the ridiculously long (and awesome) 370mm. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Gyuto which measures between 210mm and 270mm long.
About Yoshida Hamono - Yoshida Hamono are located in Saga prefecture, a very rural area on the island of Kyushu. Like many blacksmiths in rural areas, they specialized in making farming tools like sickles and hoes. The first generation of the Yoshida family was, like many, a swordsmith. After WWII, they decided to open a small workshop to produce smithed goods. In 1971, they expanded their production to fairly large scale production to meet large demand all over Japan. During this time they invested in a lot of modern machinery to allow for mass-production. This is one of the reasons why they have the ability to make their own clad-steel, rather than buying it pre-laminated. In 2017, they started making kitchen knives with ZDP189 core steel. Because Saga is not a major production centre for knives, they have built a facility that can handle the knife making process from start to finish.
These days their signature is making knives with ZDP189 core steel, which they weld to stainless steel in house. They also sub-zero heat treat their knives to purify the steel! Once the steel is quenched, it's treated with liquid nitrogen to remove excess retained austenite which hasn't been converted to martensite. This prevents the knife from bending with time by "stabilizing" its structure.
When the ZDP-189 became first available, Osamu Yoshida from Yoshida Hamono quickly purchased the steel and tried it out. He was amazed by how sharp the steel could get, so he started making kitchen knives using this super steel. This led to him developing a cult following when he was selling them at the Yasuki Knife Festival. He likes to use ZDP-189 because it allows the knife to have an incredibly sharp and long-lived edge, and despite bring hard steel to deal with, he feels a great sense of accomplishment when he forges with it compared to other steels.

Overall Experience
We enjoyed our stay at Ft Fisher in early January, 2015 The sites are large and full service, although several are backwards (ie electric, water,/sewer, and/cable on wrong side), and pads are narrow. This can be overcome by pulling straight in, unhook, and pull TV through grass to back of RV. Base facilities are closed in winter, and that was ok with us. Wi-Fi is…ify. Cable required a converter (provided by MWR office) but worked fine. When we arrived it was one rig there, and we called the MWR office and they stated that we needed reservations… ok, but it is in the middle of the winter and one other camper is there. The washrooms/showers were excellent; water pressure and/hot water great. Staff was helpful in recommending restaurants (we recommend Jack Mackerel and drinks at Bud and Joes afterward). Located a few miles from Ft. Fisher and the Aquarium; excellent for bike riding and jogging and beach time during summer. The base is building new recreation villas that are looking great. We were heading south and took the Ft Fisher ferry to South Port, which was very enjoyable. DON'T PASS UP!

We had the same experience being told we needed reservations (although the camp's website does not indicate mandatory reservations). My impression was that in reality the staff did want to handle any after-hours arrivals or did not want to set up after-hours procedures.

Nitric Oxide and Gravitopism
Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous signaling molecule implicated in a growing number of plant processes including plant defense, root initiation, stomatal closure in response to abscisic acid (ABA), salt tolerance, seed germination, nutrition, and flowering. As in mammalian cells, NO apparently acts in plants by switching on the enzyme guanylyl cyclase (GC), resulting in the accumulation of cyclic GMP (cGMP). Although NO is synthesized in roots, and both NO and cGMP have been shown to mediate auxin-induced root organogenesis, the roles of NO and cGMP in the responses of roots to gravistimulation have not been examined. In this issue, Hu et al. (pp. 663–670) demonstrate that gravistimulation of soybean (Glycine max) roots induces the accumulation of both NO and cGMP in the primary root tip. Fluorescence confocal microcopy revealed that the accumulation of NO was asymmetric, with NO being more concentrated in the lower side of the root. The application of NO to the lower side of horizontal roots enhanced gravitropic curvature, whereas application to the upper side suppressed it. Removal of NO with an NO scavenger or inhibition of NO synthesis via NO synthase (NOS) or nitrate reductase (NR) inhibitors reduced both NO accumulation and gravitropic bending, indicating that NO synthesis was required for the gravitropic responses and that both NOS and NR may contribute to the synthesis of the NO required. Auxin induced NO accumulation in root protoplasts and asymmetric auxin application to root tips resulted in asymmetric NO accumulation. Gravistimulation, NO, and auxin also induced the accumulation of cGMP, a response inhibited by removal of NO or by inhibitors of GC, compounds that also reduced gravitropic bending. Asymmetric NO accumulation and gravitropic bending were both inhibited by an auxin transport inhibitor and this inhibition of bending was overcome by treatment with NO or 8-bromo-cGMP, a cell-permeable analogue of cGMP. Together, these data indicate that NO and cGMP mediate auxin-induced gravitropic bending in soybean roots.
Making Arabidopsis an Isoprene Emitter
About one-third of all angiosperm species emit a significant fraction of recently fixed carbon as isoprene. Isoprene emission enhances plant tolerance to oxidants and rapid temperature change and is also a major source of natural air pollution. Sharkey et al. (pp. 700–712) have compared the genetics of the isoprene biosynthetic pathway of kudzu (Pureria montana), an isoprene emitter, with similar genes in Arabidopsis, a species that does not make isoprene. In the last step of isoprene biosynthesis, isoprene synthase converts dimethylallyl diphosphate, derived from the methylerythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway, to isoprene. The MEP pathway genes in kudzu were similar to the corresponding genes in Arabidopsis. Phylogenetic analysis of the terpene synthase gene family indicated that isoprene synthases are either within the monoterpene synthase clade or sister to it. Two phenylalanine residues found exclusively in isoprene synthases make the active site smaller than other terpene synthase enzymes, possibly conferring specificity for the 5-carbon substrate rather than precursors of the larger isoprenoids. Expression of the kudzu isoprene synthase gene in Arabidopsis caused Arabidopsis to emit isoprene, indicating that a plant's ability to emit isoprene may depend, at least in the case of Arabidopsis, on whether or not it has a terpene synthase capable of using dimethylallyl diphosphate. Since isoprene-emitting plant species are phylogenetically scattered, it has been hypothesized that the trait of isoprene emission was lost many times during the course of evolution; the results reported here lend strong support to this hypothesis.
BIG and Root Architectural Responses to Low Phosphate
Low phosphorus (P) availability dramatically alters the spatial configuration of plant root systems by increasing root hairs, inhibiting primary root growth, and promoting lateral root formation. Such plastic root alterations play a crucial role in enabling the plant to explore increased soil volumes in search of nutrient rich patches. Despite several detailed anatomical studies on root architectural alterations in response to P limitation, little is known about the physiological and molecular mechanisms that coordinate these developmental changes. To gain insight into the regulatory mechanisms by which P availability alters postembryonic root development, López-Bucio et al. (pp. 681–691) performed a mutant screen to identify genetic determinants involved in the response of Arabidopsis to P deprivation. Three low phosphate resistant root lines (lpr1-1 to lpr1-3) were isolated that demonstrated reduced lateral root formation under low P conditions. Genetic and molecular analyses revealed that all lpr1 mutants were allelic to BIG, which is required for normal auxin transport and which the authors go on to show is required for pericycle cell activation prior to the formation of lateral root primordia under both high (1 mM) and low (1 μM) P conditions. BIG, however, does not appear to play a role in any of the other low P-induced architectural changes, including alterations in primary root growth, lateral root emergence, and root hair elongation. Exogenously supplied auxin restored normal lateral root formation in lpr1 mutants in response to both P treatments. The application of brefeldin A, a fungal metabolite that blocks auxin transport, produced a root system phenotype similar to that observed in the lpr1 mutants under both high and low P conditions. This finding suggests that BIG participates in vesicular targeting of auxin transporters. Taken together, these results point to a key role of BIG in pericycle cell activation to form lateral root primordia, a process that is not modified by P availability but that is required for increased lateral root emergence under low P conditions.
A Mitochondrial Mutator System in Maize
There are a growing number of examples of specific nuclear effects on particular components of plant mitochondrial genomes. The most well studied are the Phaseolus vulgaris Fr gene, whose dominant allele drastically reduces the copy number of a single mitochondrial subgenome that confers male sterility, and the chm mutation in Arabidopsis, which causes accumulation of characteristic rearrangements in mtDNA leading to maternally-conferred leaf variegation and distortion. In this issue, Kuzmin et al. (pp. 779–789) describe a novel type of maize (Zea mays) mutant with destabilized mitochondrial genomes. The destabilization is caused by recessive nuclear alleles in P2 popcorn-derived lines and leads to large-scale changes in mitochondrial genomes, some of which then become maternally inherited. Readily detectable changes in P2 mtDNA include: accumulation of numerous arrangements not seen previously at high levels; a significant decrease in the copy number of some normal regions; and multiple differences in the mtDNA profiles among sibling plants, as well as between parents and their progeny. Two types of events are apparently involved in the P2-specific destabilization of mitochondrial genome: the loss of nuclear control over the relative copy numbers of different mitochondrial subgenomes and a failure to transmit all of the subgenomes to progeny.
Tonoplast Aquaporins Facilitate NH3 Transport
The physiological processes underlying the removal of ammonia and ammonium from the cytosol of plant cells are poorly understood. Loqué et al. (pp. 671–680) propose that the accumulation of ammonium in the acidic lumen of the vacuole is best explained by an acid-trap mechanism, in which the NH3 diffusing across the vacuolar membrane subsequently binds a proton to form NH4+. But by what mechanism does NH3 diffuse across the vacuolar membrane? By means of three different approaches, the authors provide evidence that indicates that the 2 tonoplast intrinsic proteins AtTIP2;1 and AtTIP2;3 mediate the transport of NH3: (1) heterologous expression of both transporters in wild-type yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) resulted in an enhanced tolerance against methylammonium, a toxic analog to ammonium; (2) expression of both AtTIPs in an ammonium uptake-defective yeast strain conferred yeast growth through ammonium uptake; and (3) expression of AtTIP2;1 in oocytes accelerated the transport of methylammonium. Transcript levels of both AtTIPs were increased by nitrogen (N) supply, but these increases did not follow those of the N-derepressed ammonium transporter gene AtAMT1;1. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing AtTIP2;1, however, did not show altered ammonium accumulation in roots after ammonium supply, although AtTIP2;1 mRNA levels in wild-type plants were up-regulated under these conditions. This lack of effect might be attributable to posttranslational modification of the protein. Although the researchers were unable to demonstrate unequivocally the physiological significance of AtTIP-mediated NH3 transport in planta, they did show that AtTIP2;1 and AtTIP2;3 transport ammonium and methylammonium efficiently only at high medium pH and thus most likely represent NH3 transporters. With their localization in the tonoplast and their transcriptional activation under ammonium supply, vacuolar TIP proteins are promising candidates to participate in the vacuolar loading of NH3.
Arabidopsis Sphingosine Kinase
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of cellular membranes in eukaryotic cells. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) regulates many biological processes in mammals through its interactions with a family of specific cell surface G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and also serves as an intracellular second messenger in eukaryotes to regulate Ca2+ homeostasis, cell growth, and survival. In plants, S1P regulates guard cell behavior via Ca2+-mobilization, inhibition of plasma membrane inwardly rectifying K+ channels, and stimulation of slow anion channels. Recently, it has been shown that the enzyme responsible for S1P production, sphingosine kinase (SphK), is stimulated by ABA in guard cells of Arabidopsis and that S1P is effective in regulating guard cell turgor. Moreover, the action of S1P on ion channels is impaired in guard cells of Arabidopsis plants harboring T-DNA null mutations in the G-protein α-subunit gene, GPA1, suggesting that, as in mammals, heterotrimeric G-proteins are downstream targets for S1P in plants. In eukaryotes, cellular levels of S1P are ultimately regulated by the balance between synthesis via sphingosine kinase (SphK) and degradation by S1P lyase or phosphohydrolases specific for S1P. Coursol et al. (pp. 724–737) have characterized SphK from Arabidopsis leaves. SphK activity was mainly associated with the membrane fraction and phosphorylated predominantly the Δ4-unsaturated long-chain sphingoid bases sphingosine (Sph) and 4,8-sphingadienine. Evidence is presented that suggests that multiple isoforms of SphK may be expressed in Arabidopsis. Importantly, it was found that phytosphingosine-1-phosphate, a molecule similar to S1P, also regulates stomatal apertures and that its action is impaired in guard cells of Arabidopsis plants harboring T-DNA null mutations in the sole G-protein α-subunit gene, GPA1.

I noticed from personal experience if you treat every experience, good or bad, as a valuable lesson, as a stepping stone to improvement you get much quicker to your goals. Steve Jobs clearly show us the importance of our past encounters, no amount of planning can make you successful in your future – but the things you learned from your past can make you a better candidate for success.

Audible difference
The marketeers have labelled it "Hypersonic" – and that's a pretty accurate description. The soundtrack, rebuilt from original elements, has been remastered in 24-Bit, 192kHz Dolby TrueHD. This eclipses what you get with regular film releases, which are routinely mixed and mastered at 24/48kHz resolution.
Multiple soundtracks are on the disc to compare and contrast
Once loaded, the movie defaults to the English language Dolby TrueHD dub, but you'll need to flick on the subtitles and jump straight to the Japanese TrueHD track to hear this high resolution mix. The phenomenal audio remastering job has been overseen by Akira's composer Tsutomu Ohashi (sometimes known by his pseudonym Shoji Yamashiro). He says he took on the project to create the "ideal audio experience." Job done, Ohashi-san.
Not only does the extended frequency response make Ohashi's memorable, pounding score richer than Kobe beef, it enables you to listen to the very fabric of the soundtrack itself. Everything is louder and sharper; it becomes super-easy to pick out the jet engine roar blended with Harley Davidson, used to create the sound of Kaneda's iconic red motorbike.
To hear just how much things have changed, the film's original two-channel Japanese PCM mix is also available on the disc. It's flat and empty in comparison. A DD5.1 Japanese track is also included.
Definitely a sound investment to showcase your home theatre audio
The caveat is that Akira's Hypersonic fidelity probably won't be appreciable on a mainstream all-in-one home cinema system. But if you have high-end AV kit, here's a platter that'll really test its mettle. Crank the volume and it's like having a sonic enema.
Outside of the film itself, there's not much in the way of extras on the Blu-ray: just a handful of short trailers and the director's storyboards, all 737 pages of them.
There may be elements which haven't dated well, but Akira's iconic character and vehicle designs still elicit fanboy glee. To finally see them on Blu-ray is quite a treat. Even without the Hypersonic hyperbole, the movie still has the power to blow your socks off. Chapter 5's chase sequence, which is a symphony of roaring motorcycles and explosions, is just darn good fun. And that's often something that's often overlooked when discussing Akira. ®

|Goodies from my staff. The pringles and swedish fish will be road tripping with Kaelynn and I this afternoon
So what have I been up to in the world of running lately? Well, I am in week 2 of my training plan for my next running adventure that my friend Joe was kind enough to create for me. So far my training has been going very well. Last week was a nice and easy recovery week.
|35 recovery miles
Why did I run 35 miles during a recovery week you ask? Well so I can see what I am made of in September when I toe the line of my fall marathon in Erie, PA. I am not quite ready to share my goal for this race just yet but let me just say I am ready, willing, and able to put in the work that will be required to meet my goal.
|Erie Marathon Entry Confirmation
This week's training has gone very well. I ran 6 easy miles on both Tuesday and Thursday and did my first track workout on Wednesday. I am very pleased will how all of these runs went. It was outlandishly hot yesterday which did remind me that it is best to sacrifice a little bit of shut eye and get the workout done before the sun comes up! I am currently sitting at 19 miles for the week and the training plan calls for 6 miles tomorrow and 12 miles on Sunday. As I mentioned in my April in review, I will sacrifice mileage any day for my kids so I will likely be sacrificing my 6 mile run tommorrow as I will be in Ann Arbor with Kaelynn for her final ice skating competition of the 2012-2013 season. Fortunately it works out that I will be home to do my long run on Sunday so I am not sacrificing all 18 miles this weekend! Like Joe said don't worry too much about it because this early in the training program it isn't even a spec of sand on the beach. I like how you think Joe!
To snag a line from Joe, one of the greatest athletes I have the pleasure of being friends with, it's time to go to work!
Keep running, you're simply the best, and you inspire me!!

Bitcoin Movement based on Numerous Potential Factors
BITSTAMP:BTCUSD Bitcoin / U.S. Dollar

Much of the reasoning behind my future price action speculation can be found in the chart itself, yet I will include some further details below. I first drew the Fibonacci levels in order to find the support/resistance levels given the range of price we are already in. Notice how many times the price crossing that 50% retracement level correlated with the price going upwards afterwards. Once I had the Fibonacci levels in place, I set up the Gann Fan , a tool I use when determining future support/resistance levels after a sudden drop in price. Notice how the price action respects the Gann lines, especially the 1:3, 1:1, and 2:1 lines. The next thing I placed in my chart was an Ichimoku cloud , due to it's tremendous capability in forecasting the amount of resistance and support at a given time, 26 periods ahead. The thickness of the cloud represents this support/resistance very well, and in the chart, we have found great support in order to even enter the cloud; yet a true bull run would not be supported by the Ichimoku until both the price action and the Chikou span are both above the cloud. The elliot wave , and elliot retracement both follow their principles in the chart, and I used a known support/resistance line to demonstrate how the elliot waves may react at that particular level. And finally after this major bull run to roughly $380 concludes, we'll most likely retrace, either for another leg up, or back down for a potential double bottom .

Lytvyn's Bloc representative Syrota speaks for necessity of creating broad coalition
Lytvyn's Bloc may join the "orange" coalition?
Lytvyn's Bloc representative Mykhaylo Syrota speaks for necessity of creating a broad coalition in the Verkhovna Rada.
According to an UNIAN correspondent, M.Syrota said this in a live air at Inter television.
According to him, the coalition of 230-240 votes is not stable. "Because there will always be a threat that 150 lawmakers may refuse from their mandates, and there will be no parliament of the sixth convocation, as well as the fifth convocation. And it is a threat to not only parliamentarism, but the whole power", M.Syrota stressed.
He spoke for a coalition, including more than 300 lawmakers. "Only a broad, constitutional coalition, gives an opportunity of a perspective work of the parliament", he said. At the same time, he refused to specify, which coalition the Lytvyn's Bloc will join – the "orange" or the "white-blue".

Still making knives that suit the type of carving I do. I have been working on a walking stick, covered in Nesuke like faces, since May. It has been necessary to develop new knives as I have progressed to cope with the very fine work. The old ladies face and the tiny one above in Photo 5 are cases in point. The little face is smaller than a thumb nail.
The first two knives from the left have very thin blades, about 0.5 mm, and are made from an old tenon saw. Had to harden and stiffen the steel all without cracking it. The next two are made from an old cut throat razor. The steel needs to be softened a bit to reduce the brittleness. No 5 is sharpened on both faces and is a tidying up tool. Made from an old hand saw blade. The next is a curved knife similar to that found in Canada. Then there is a Japanese style carving chisel made from a file and a tiny scraper made from a concrete nail.
I have made lots of chisels. The ones in the roll are just a few.
The last two photos show parts of the walking stick. Maybe six weeks work left to finish it. I will post the stick when the time comes.
I still have to finish most of the handles but it takes me a while to decide if the tool is good enough for what I need to do. New knives can sometimes need quite a bit of tuning and shaping to get the best from them. They can be too long, not sharp enough, strangely too sharp or an inefficient shape to mention a few problems.

that is some outstanding work, I am amazed by the detail. I try to do a little carving, but side of you, I should smash my tools to pieces and leave the heavy lifting to you.. wow… very well done… Papa

The secret is to put on reading glasses with a magnification of 3.5 x and then head band mounted lens over that of 1.75 x. Even the smallest detail becomes easy to see. Mind you it wrecks my eyes after about an hour.

Thanks Guys. I actually prefer making tools to doing the woodwork but there is only some many knives etc you can use. Sometimes I make them to sell but then I like the results so much that I can't bring myself to let them go. Bit of a problem.

Cannibal Movie The Green Inferno No Longer Slated for September
Cannibal Movie The Green Inferno No Longer Slated for September
Open Road Films no longer premiering The Green Inferno on September 5th.
The Green Inferno, a movie directed by Eli Roth, has just been pulled from its intended September 5th release date. Open Road Films made the decision to push back the release just three weeks before the movie was meant to hit theaters.
Showbiz411 states that "they just don't have the money to pay for the release." This coincides with recent reports that Worldview Entertainment, the company financing the movie, has been suffering from financial woes. CEO Christopher Woodrow was forced to step down in June for alleged personal misconduct.
Eli Roth took to Twitter to inform his fans they're working diligently to get the movie back on track.
Roth is a director best known for his horror movie series Hostel and Cabin Fever. His latest project The Green Inferno depicts the struggles a group of student activists go through after crash landing in the middle of the Amazon jungle and encountering a cannibal tribe. It's inspired by the Italian cannibal film Cannibal Holocaust.
Source: IGN
Well, Cannibal Apocalypse was about 30 years ago. I guess it's time for a terrible remake.
The reason that they won't get completion on it is probably because it looks ridiculous and terrible and was put at the bottom of the list. At least Cannibal Holocaust for all it's problems actually contributed some new ideas. Some derivative film about white man's fear of places without plumbing/torture porn is not going to set the world on fire. I can't wait to see the fervour this film is going to kick up with over sensitive idiots.
The less Eli Roth in theaters, the better, I say. Not a fan at all.
And did we really need more Cannibal Holocaust? I get the feeling we really didn't need more Cannibal Holocaust. Is there going to be a penis-chopping scene in this one? There's going to be a penis-chopping scene in this one, isn't there? ;___;
Not that I love torture films all that much, I do enjoy watching because it's interesting to see just how twisted some people are with these things. I also like to think about how much fun the special effects team must be having creating these over-the-top gruesome scenes.
Oh I really loved Hostel. Before it came out, I was always thinking "Why has nobody had the idea, to combine American Pie and Men behind the sun ?". At the time, the slaughter started, you already despised the little a-holes in the lead-roles so much, that you didn´t pity them for one second.But the rise of torture porn, made it so much easier for me, to pick up DVDs. When the case reads "If you liked Hostel and Saw....." I don´t even bother to read the synopsis on the backside.
If you want to see hardcore horror done right, with real acting look out for the french movie "Martyrs".
Everyone mentioning Cannibal Holocaust, obviously Eli Roth loved that movie (the creator has a cameo in one of Eli's films) and obviously it inspired this in particular, but there were a bunch of those movies it's not the only one. Hell, based on the trailer you can tell that themes at play are quite different.
Student activists getting munched on by cannibals? Sign me up! I've had it up to here with those smarmy little twits, so have at 'em, cannibals.

Ilaiyaraja proves that the best is not always found in Bollywood
Ilaiyaraja turns 75 today and is undoubtedly one of the best music composerseditorials Updated: Jun 02, 2018 15:41 IST
Broadly speaking, anything Indian — food, music, clothes, cinema — always tends to mean a sort of standard north Indian, generic Hindi-ish thing. Like curry (whatever that may be), there is something about the mainstream that is mostly Hindi-speaking and definitely belongs to a region in India that can only be classified as north. This is as true within India as it is for the diaspora and the wider world at large. One of the exceptions proving the rule is the prolific Tamil music director Ilaiyaraja, whose music has found its way out of the south to sway listeners around the country, and around the world. Today — his 75th birthday — is a good day perhaps to take a break from the Bollywood mainstream to explore what is sometimes patronisingly called regional work.
Ilaiyaraja, in the south, is about as mainstream as it gets. Before AR Rahman broke into the national consciousness, and long before Kolaveri Di, Ilaiyaraja composed Rakkamma kaiyya thattu for Mani Ratnam's Rajinikanth-starrer Thalapathi. In 2002, it was voted the fourth most popular song ever in the world in a BBC poll. From Nayakan's haunting Thenpandi Cheemayile which he sang, to Agni Natchatriram's Raja Rajadhi Raja in which he has used only percussion instruments, Ilaiyaraja's innovations in popular music have been loved by critics and fans alike for almost five decades. His experiments with the fusion of western styles, with both classical and folk traditions of India, have rightfully won him accolades around the world. Having composed over 7,000 songs and scored more than a 1,000 movies, his legacy as one of India's finest composers is not in doubt.
As we celebrate the music and art of Ilaiyaraja on his 75th birthday, we must also consider all those composers, singers and artists who the mainstream has not been able to discover. Even in today's world of YouTube ubiquity and social media, only the viral seems to have any value. Those who don't have the wherewithal to go viral may never even rise out of the depths of anonymity and perhaps even penury. Some of the blame for that must be shouldered by us — the public — and also by the producers of that genre of popular music euphemistically referred to as item numbers. Encouraging local, regional talent means broadening our horizons beyond the mainstream, buying the work of talent outside Bollywood, and promoting it. Ilaiyaraja's work is proof that the best work of all is not always found in Bollywood.

Reviewed: July 13, 2015 by No1Fairytale, a Straight Married Female
We first came across this lube a few years ago as an LH recommendation with a new toy we ordered - more on that later - and what I can confidently say is wow!
By now you'll already have researched that water-based lubes are safe to use with all condoms and toys, but what you won't know is that the consistency (think shower gel) of this particular brand makes it the best I've tried. Being thick it doesn't run uncontrollably and make a mess, but it does mean that it's perfect for anal play.
Whatever you choose to use, just a few drops will leave it fantastically slippery which feels naturally exquisite 'on the go' and lasts for a very pleasurable long time. Even if you manage to reach the limits of slip where it starts to dry out, if you don't have the bottle to hand, being water-based, a little moisture will get you back in the game in no time at all.
If you aren't already hitting the 'add to basket' button, as an added bonus, this lube has no detectable smell or taste so the party can keep going as long as you can.
- Pros
- A little goes a long way and lasts a long time.
- Cons
- I lost the little bottle in all the excitement - oops.
- Bottom line
- If it's dry and it needs be wet, look no further

My all time fave lube
Reviewed: June 9, 2014 by allthefunofthefair, a Straight Going Steady Male
My OH introduced me to this lube. I had previously been a fan of ID glide, but this feels a lot more natural when using for lovemaking, and it works fantastically well in and on the various toys we own.
There is zero skin irritation for either of us when using this. It doesn't have a strong odour and cleaning up afterwards is easy.
It feels super wet and not at all sticky.
- Pros
- Low odour, easy clean up, feels great.
- Cons
- The plastic bottle lid tends to break off too easily.
- Bottom line
- Best lube on the market.

Love this
Reviewed: June 14, 2013 by sexcrazy1990, a Straight Going Steady Female
I have really sensitive skin so I have to be careful about what products I try but this is amazing. It didn't irritate me at all.
I had this for about 6 months and I used it on a regular basis. My partner wouldn't go without it he enjoyed it that much.
Really the tinniest bit gets you wet and ready to go and I can't say I dried out at all during intercourse and play, which is good.
Also this is very cheeky but the bottle can also be used as a sex toy if there is nothing else to hand. It's a bit big but with enough lube it slides up easily and gives an intense naughty feeling.
- Pros
- The bottle, long-lasting, keeps you wet, cheap.
- Cons
- I can't say anything.
- Bottom line
- A great buy. I won't be changing for a while so worth it.

Best lube ever
Reviewed: April 2, 2013 by CookieCrumble, a Straight Going Steady Female
I have been using this stuff for years and it is amazing.
Great with skin-on-skin and toys.
It isn't at all sticky and a little goes a long way.
There are no funny smells you get with other lubricants, and although it's not flavoured it doesn't have a horrible taste like others do.
It is a really good lubricant.
- Pros
- A little goes a long way.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Best lubricant ever. Try and see.

This needs to be in your collection!
Reviewed: July 29, 2009 by KinkyBeast, a Straight Married Male
The trendy looking bottle gives great credit to its contents. The silky liquid feels amazing on your skin and it really does stay wet for a long while, so no need to add more half way through use.
It's great for masturbation as well as penetrative sex; it really gives your member a good glide! The formulation means it is non-sticky, non-staining, non-greasy and lots of fun. It also works well with toys and doesn't damage them.
If you're used to pouring your lube on like it's going out of fashion, don't worry - with WET Original you will only need a few squirts and the small nozzle helps there.
This is the basic lube for me and it should be for you, too!
- Pros
- You don't have to use lots and if feels really silky.
- Cons
- Nothing. Not one thing.
- Bottom line
- The best standard lube out there.

For years the media has misinformed us regarding the issue on weight loss. There are so many people on diets, on missions to lose weight and they are only setting themselves up for failure. My question to you is: if diets and exercise work, then why are most people on a vicious cycle to always lose weight? By the way, exercise is only 20% of your weight loss while what and how much you eat is the other 80%. So why are most people swept up in this culture of diets and exercise?
First let's put everything into perspective. Big tobacco controls most food chains and media conglomerates. Their purpose is to convince the American people to consume more and more food everyday. The more we eat, the more money they win. Its a sickening fight for your money. The more ads they bombard at you, the more you will consume. Why? It's all about your subconscious. You might think that logic will win this battle, but emotion is the underlying determiner of whether you buy that fattening, juicy, steaming, cheesy piece of garbage that they call food. The ads and commercials that you see convey messages that resonate with good feelings or memories in your life. The most sickening example: what does a happy clown have to do with a cheeseburger? Nothing! It's a tactic that paid psychologist came up to manipulate your mind and your children's mind.
The truth will not be published in the magazines, or TV shows, or any publications owned by big Tobacco. Why? because they want you to be confused about weight loss, and fall into those vicious cycles, so that at the end of the day you end up binging on all their crappy food.
The key to losing weight is eating a balanced diet which includes fats, carbs, proteins and everything needed for the function of your body. Portion control is another factor in weight loss. Most restaurants serve you portions enough for three people. Go ahead and eat all the food on the plate. Your stomach will stretch, your body will produce too much insulin and not know what to do with all that extra food so it will store it as fat in your arteries, on your organs, on your stomach and thighs. The more you eat, the bigger your stomach gets, and when you go back to that restaurant, you will probably have more room for more food- mission accomplished; another penny from your pocket.
It doesn't have to be this way. There are solutions to your illnesses, your anxiety and your addictions to food for comfort. Why do you eat? Anxiety? Comfort? What if there was a natural solution to your cravings and bad eating habits? What if you lost five pounds in three days and maybe 20 in a month? I did and with an all natural solution. What if you could control how much you eat and say no to food when you feel full? It's possible, but first you must detoxify your body, purify your blood and give it the nutrients that it needs.

Le Gamin Et Le Minion
I paint only when I want to and perhaps thus this process gives me immense pleasure. This time it was to gift a dear friend at work who was quitting the company. I affectionately call him « the kid in red ». The word kid here is meant metaphorically relating to childlike enthusiasm, innocence and liveliness that unfortunately very few can sustain till adulthood. And the colour red having its own significance.
Considering my friends buoyant personality and the metaphorical references that I draw from it, it was clear that the kid in red had to feature in my painting. He had to wear a red shirt and had to hold onto a red balloon as a symbolism (Well, it did not necessarily have to be a red ballon. It could have as well been a treasured and preserved jar of home made pickle). But that did not seem to complete this painting. Something was missing; with that which shall attract the kids attention and curiosity resulting in a display of enthusiasm. Minion seemed like an appropriate choice that always appears to live in the moment and enjoy the simplest of pleasures. The video of the minion and the banana came to my mind and I knew almost immediately what could complete this painting. The minion attracts the kid into the moment as he still holds on to his favourite red balloon.
The colours were almost decided but I experimented a little with the minion based out of a reference I found on the internet.
In a single stretch of five hours, the painting was completed.
On a surface-level, a painting might not be apparent as might be a speech. But if we take a moment and observe every subtlety involved, it is shocking to notice that paintings can convey the emotions that a speech can only ruin and words can never do justice to. Because a speech would dilute away with the emotion, with the moment, with the time and losing eventually its significance but art seems to lock the emotions forever and tend to remind us of who we once were and how we once felt; even if time has changed and we have moved on.

tonight I walked Ontario's south lake shore
as did we the evening previous.
smooth round red rocks whispered
of time's violent eons.
patterned driftwood spoke
to cycles of birth, life, and dying,
held between touching fingers.
an sherbet orange sunset sky
melded horizon to water,
rock to wood,
the stories of our lives
to waves beneath our

Find out more about quicksand and how sand can behave like a fluid.
# Sand - about 2.5cm in a washing up bowl
# fluidised Bed
# reversible hoover - small variac
# Fluidised bed sand (finer and more uniform than normal)
# Things of a range of densities that can be floated/sunk in the dry sand, similar set to go in water/thixotropic sand.. wood, rocks
# Dustpan and brush
# Container of water
Drain out water, retain sand for re-use.
Thixotropic sand
Just add water to sand until it is thixotropic - this is a bit more of a challenge than the cornflour, but if the surface is actually wet it normally works.
Get the kids to build a sandcastle, then shake the bucket and the sand should slowly liquefy
Because the sand is much heavier it squashes the water from between the grains just by its weight, so the only way you can get the lubrication back is to shake them apart so the water can get in between.
The ground liquifying is a big problem during earthquakes, and can often cause more damage than the shaking itself, eg in a 1964 Niigata earthquake in Japan.
Fluidised bed:
Fill bed with sand, attach hoover in blow mode (attach pipe under cover in the middle). The hoover is a bit powerful, so it is a good idea to vent some of the air out the side to avoid blowing all the sand everywhere, we should have a device for doing this, but something may have to be manufactured using gaffer tape.
Get them to feel the sand without air, then get them to feel it as you turn the air on. It will suddenly feel light, will flow easily and almost behave like a liquid - you can float and sink things in it - you should be able to float things in it that won't float in water.
You can get the child to bury things that float in it, then blow air and they will float up, and vice versa
Basically the sand particles can't move past one another normally as they are touching, but if you blow sand between them the bounce around and can joggle past one another. You can look at it like a blown up model of a liquid with all the particles joggling around so it will flow.
It is used to move things like flour around (which is why you can transport it in tankers.) Also as a way of doing reactions where you need a large surface area eg burning things well.
Fluidised beds are used for burning coal in power stations, as you get a really large surface area, and you can add Sulphur and Nitrogen Oxide scrubbers as lumps in the fluidised bed.
This also has a similarity to quicksand, if you have a (water) spring under sand, it can fluidise the sand which you can sink into (the water acts like the air in this demonstration). This is particularly dangerous in big sandy tidal flats, as when the tide comes up, you can get water trapped under an impermeable layer, and when you walk over the top you can release this, liquefying the sand you are standing on, which will then solidify again, leaving you stuck in the sand with the tide coming in!
Blowing air through sand, making it flow like a fluid (and allowing more/less dense items to sink/float through it).

The EV-market is growing fast. Due to the improved range, lower purchase price and many financial advantages such as 4% additional tax and investment allowance, the electric car is becoming more and more interesting for employers, employees and entrepreneurs. Just as with fuel cars, you want to have your travel expenses reimbursed on one invoice. But where do you find an overview of the charging costs incurred and how does this settlement come about? E-Flux offers an employer's subscription for this situation.
With an employer's subscription, your charging station at home is linked to the back office of E-Flux. The connection is made by a SIM card (GSM) or Ethernet cable (LAN). Technically speaking, every charging-card from E-Flux is combined with a backoffice subscription. The charging costs registered on the card are invoiced to the employer on a monthly basis. Both for charging sessions at the home charging point and at public charging stations. If a charge card from another provider is already being used, it is still possible to choose for the E-Flux employer's subscription.
Why E-Flux?
E-Flux offers an independent management system for charging stations. This makes it possible to create an overview of all charging sessions, and to settle these with the employer or visitors who come to load. The back office is applicable to different types of charging stations, so the employee or employer always has a free choice. In addition, E-Flux also offers flexibility regarding the rates. You can set a kWh rate yourself for the charging costs you want reimbursed from the employer. This is set to €0.21 incl. VAT by default. If your employer allows a higher amount, this can be changed. E-Flux offers 24/7 support on all connected charging stations.
Costs of Employer's subscription
We do not ask for fixed monthly costs for the connection of the E-Flux management system and the settlement of the charging sessions. However, a variable rate will be deducted over the loaded kilowatt hours. This rate is €0.02 per kWh excl. VAT with a maximum of €4.00 excl. VAT per month. You're not charging because of holidays? Then less is charged for the subscription in this period. A charge card from E-Flux normally costs €2.44 per month VAT, but when combined with a subscription to the back office, the monthly subscription on the charge card is only €2.00 excl. VAT.
Are you an EV-driver and do you want to settle the charging costs with your employer or your own company? Request a subscription here. If you have any questions feel free to contact us:

World Day 2014: Safety and Health in the Use of Chemicals at Work
Safety and health in the use of chemicals at work is the theme for the ILO World Day for safety and health at work in 2014, celebrated on April 28.
Chemicals are essential for modern life, but can be a danger to workers. Some of these dangers are well known, others less so. Ideally, the exposure of workers to dangerous substances should be eliminated, but often chemicals have to be managed in the workplace, just like any workplace hazard, to reduce the risk to workers.
A chemical is defined by ILO Convention no. 170 (1990) on safety in the use of chemicals at work as "chemical elements and compounds, and their mixtures, whether natural or synthetic such as those obtained through production process". Hazardous chemicals are classified according to the type and degree of their intrinsic health and physical hazards.
Use of chemicals at work is defined by the same Convention as any work activity which may expose a worker to a chemical, including during the production, handling, storage, transport, and disposal of chemicals.
The impact of chemical exposures on workers' health is enormous. While the calculation of the numbers harmed by chemicals is difficult (for example because of latency periods between exposure to the chemical and developing ill-health), it is estimated that in 2004 there were 4 900 000 deaths attributable to environmental exposure and management of selected chemicals. This figure includes both occupational and non-occupational exposures such as indoor smoke from solid fuel use.
The European Union has a legal framework for the prevention of harm to workers from chemicals. EU Directives are transposed into law in every Member State to establish a common framework and minimum standards.
The Framework Directive on Safety and Health at Work (Directive 89/391 EEC) adopted in 1989 guarantees minimum safety and health requirements throughout Europe. The Directive sets out the basic legal requirements on employers and workers, and establishes a hierarchy of prevention measures.
Directive 98/24/EC of 7 April 1998 on the protection of the health and safety of workers from the risks related to chemical agents at work aims to lay down minimum requirements for the protection of workers from risks to their safety and health arising, or likely to arise, from the effects of chemical agents that are present at the workplace or as a result of any work activity involving chemical agents. This directive focuses the basic structure of the framework and makes specific provision for addressing the risks from chemical substances. There are also specific directives addressing the themes of asbestos and of carcinogens and mutagens.
At EU-OSHA, there is a large collection of information on the dangers of chemicals and the prevention of harm to workers. Some of the work focuses on cutting edge topics such as nanotechonologies, other materials consider how specific groups and sectors may be affected.
The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work is working with its tripartite partners to ensure the safe use of chemicals across Europe, maintaining the benefits acheived through the production and use of chemicals while minimising worker exposures and supporting the developmen of global and European comprehensive approaches in this complex work area.
