Holotropic Breathwork is a term for inducing altered states of consciousness through breath, coined by the scientific researcher, Stanislav Grof.
With over 50-years of ground-breaking work, and research on consciousness, and psychedelic states, his life's mission has been dedicated to exploring the healing (and transformative) potential of "non-ordinary" states of being.
Grof's groundbreaking theories have helped influence the integration of Western science with his brilliant mapping of the transpersonal dimensions.
What is Holotropic Breathwork?
Holotropic Breathwork™ is a powerful approach to self-exploration and healing that integrates insights from modern consciousness research, anthropology, various depth psychologies, transpersonal psychology, Eastern spiritual practices, and mystical traditions of the world. The name Holotropic means literally "moving toward wholeness" (from the Greek "holos"=whole and "trepein"=moving in the direction of something).
The tenets of HB, according to Stanislav and Christina Grof are as following (via Grof Holotropic Breathwork):
Theoretical Position:
- The theory of Holotropic Breathwork encompasses a broad understanding of the human psyche that includes the biographical, perinatal, and transpersonal dimensions. Phenomena from all these domains are seen as natural and normal constituents of the psychological process; they are accepted, and supported without preference.
- Recognition of the fact that non-ordinary states of consciousness induced by Holotropic Breathwork, as well as similar states occurring spontaneously, mobilize intrinsic healing forces in the psyche and the body.
- As the process is unfolding, this "inner healer" manifests therapeutic wisdom which transcends the knowledge that can be derived from the cognitive understanding of an individual practitioner or from any specific school of psychotherapy or body work.
Practical Approach:
- The basic elements in Holotropic Breathwork are deeper and accelerated breathing, evocative music, and facilitation of energy release through a specific form of bodywork. This is complemented by creative expression, such as "mandala" drawing, and discussion of the experience. Holotropic Breathwork can be conducted on a one to one basis, or preferably in a group situation, where participants alternate in the role of experiencers and "Sitters".
- Before the first breathing experience, participants receive an in-depth theoretical preparation that includes a description of the major types of phenomena that occur in holotropic sessions (biographical, perinatal and transpersonal) and technical instructions for both experiencers and Sitters. Physical and emotional contraindications are discussed and if there are any concerns, expert assessment is obtained. The facilitator makes clear agreements with clients that they will not damage persons or property or engage in sexual behavior with others during a Holotropic Breathwork session, and that they will stay to participate in and complete the entire session.
- Holotropic Breathing is faster and deeper than usual; generally no other specific instructions are given before or during the session as to the rate, pattern, and nature of breathing. The experience is entirely internal and largely non-verbal, without interventions. Exceptions are constriction in the throat, management problems, excessive pain or fear threatening the continuation of the session, and explicit request of the Breather.
- Music (or other forms of acoustic stimulation —drumming, nature sounds, etc.) is an integral part of the Holotropic process. Typically, the choice of music follows a characteristic pattern that reflects the most common unfolding of the holotropic experiences: at the beginning, it is evocative and stimulating, later it becomes increasingly dramatic and dynamic, and finally it reaches a culmination. Following the culmination, it is appropriate to shift gradually to quieter music and end with peaceful, flowing, and meditative selections. Although this seems to represent the statistical average, it should be modified if the energy in the group suggests that a different pattern is indicated.
- The role of the Sitter during the session is to be responsive and non-intrusive, to ensure effective breathing, create a safe environment, respect the natural unfolding of the experience, and provide assistance in all situations that require it (including physical support, help during bathroom breaks, bringing tissues or a glass of water, etc.). It is important to remain focused and centered while facing the entire spectrum of possible emotions and behaviors of the Breather. Holotropic Breathwork does not use any interventions that come from intellectual analysis or are based on a priori theoretical constructs.
- It is important to leave sufficient time for the sessions, usually between two and three hours. However, as a general rule, the process is allowed to reach a natural closure; in exceptional cases, this can take a few hours. In the termination period the facilitator offers energy release work, if the breathing has not resolved all of the emotional and physical tensions activated during the sessions. The basic principle of this work is to take the clues from the experience and create a situation where the existing symptoms are amplified; while the energy and awareness is held in this area, the subject is encouraged to express fully his or her reaction, whichever form it takes. This form of energy release work is an essential part of the holotropic approach and plays an important role in the completion and integration of the experience.
- Facilitators of Holotropic Breathwork should recognize that, when they utilize a technique that evokes a non-ordinary state in a client, there is a potential for unusually intense projections, including regressed longings for nurturing, sexual contact, or spiritual connection. These projections are often focused on the facilitator. In such cases the facilitator should be sensitive to the imbalance of power in the facilitator and client roles and take care to assist clients with such feelings as they arise. Facilitators make agreements to conduct their practice of Holotropic Breathwork in an ethical manner.
- Discussion groups take place on the same day after an extended break. During these sessions, the facilitator does not give interpretations of the material, based on a specific theoretical system, including that of Holotropic Breathwork. It is preferable to ask the experiencer for further elaboration and clarification reflecting his or her insights from the session. Jungian amplification in the form of mythological and anthropological references can be very useful in the discussion of the holotropic experiences, as well as the mandalas. On occasion, references to the facilitator's own experiences in the past or experiences of other people might be appropriate.
- There are many approaches that complement Holotropic Breathwork —Gestalt practice, Dora Kalff's sandplay, bioenergetics, various forms of massage, acupuncture, etc. However, whenever these are used, it should be clearly indicated that these are not a part of Holotropic Breathwork. If the practice of conducting the sessions itself departs significantly from the above descriptions, the name Holotropic Breathwork should not be used for such a procedure. We ask that it be replaced by a different term and not associated with our names.
How to Do Holotropic Breathwork
1. Breathe Deep
To begin the HB practice, start by finding a comfortable position laying down. Close your eyes, and begin doing deep breaths in through your nose, and out through your mouth.
Breathe in as deep as possible, breathe out as deep as possible. While, it may feel uncomfortable, keep pushing through the discomfort as you breathe this way for a few minutes.
If you begin to feel dizzy or light headed, take a break and collect yourself. If you start to over-think, just focus on your breath and try to calm into the present moment.
2. Pick Up the Pace
As you proceed with your deep inhales and exhales, now pick up the pace. Take a breath, and as soon as you inhale – immediately exhale, as soon as you exhale, immediately inhale (as hard as you possibly can).
It will feel like you're not taking in much air, because you are hyper-oxygenating your lungs. Again, this will feel really uncomfortable, but push through and keep doing this until it becomes second nature.
3. Experience the Non-Ordinary
After a while you'll begin to feel as though you're in a highly meditative state, and you may experience sensations of light-headedness, closed-eye visuals (or colors), bliss, and heightened emotions. It's recommended you do this for about an hour before completing your session.
As you begin to practice and refine your breath, your experience will begin to differ, and each time may be a completely unique journey.

Wash before use with phosphate free detergent in cool water using a gentle or delicate machine cycle. Some fading as a result of cleaning is typical for this fabric and is most notable on darker shades. Front loading washers contribute to color loss due to the increased tumbling action during cleaning. Fading can be minimized through use of cool wash settings and gentle wash cycles.
Tumble dry on a low temperature or permanent press setting and remove promptly.
Iron using standard settings for cotton with the printed side down for best results, or use a press cloth. Steam may be used to remove wrinkles. Mineral deposits in the iron and spraying fabric with a water bottle may cause unexpected staining or marking and should be avoided.

Being a distributed team we can never communicate "too much", so we're making it a habit to always share news and recurring things like meeting minutes on our intranet.
But the best thing is when communication between teams "just happens".
Below I shared a screenshot for an improved "this list is empty"-screen. First, nothing happened at all. Then the next day the customer success team in San Francisco noticed and started making suggestions. It turned from pure language-level suggestions into a real review of the user experience of that screen (the discussion went on for two more screens), and the resulting screen is of course much better than what we initially came up with in the Berlin office.
It's nothing earth-shattering, I know, but I really love this cross team/ cross timezone thing, and how well it can work out even for the small things. We usually post feature specifications onto Confluence since it's better suited for larger discussions, but using Hipchat for all the small things is just as great.

Well Mr. Stowewrite, it is the Western "powers" who did create
this mess in Europe about 75 years ago by cutting up a country
and creating the artifical ones which are causing all the troubles
now.Remember Trianon ? Please look up some history sources.
The same 'cutting up' is happening in Bosnia now and I bet it will
not solve any problem.It will only create more trouble down the line
as before.So whose interest is this? Well war is business.The
so-called Cold war is over ( or this is what the media tries to
make people to believe).The US needs some 'business' again.It has
a huge war machine which has to churn out products and sell it,
but where? Where is conflict. So where are the conflicts ?
Where you create them. Simple? Yes.You see, the old rule :
'Divide and rule them' is still very valid. It is easy stir up
people in countries where there are different races/religious groups
due to the fact that these countries were created artificially
with these aims in mind from the start.So you want other rich
countries take charge in Europe now? Well Germany could do it.
But the moment it would move in that direction the media ( leftist
as we all know them ) would be crying out loud all over that
nazism started again,blah,blah... So it is wiser if Germany not
intervene now.France ? Don't make me laugh.Britain ? Please not
them with their anti-continental behaviour, they are oh so 'above'
the continental masses.Please correct me if I'm wrong but the US
would not go into this mess in Europe if it would not smell some
business.( Also some election is coming up, isn't it ?)
We should hope that there won't be a 'Vietnam' in Europe from this.
Well I could go on but I know you see it differently isn't it ?

Translation: The "little Asian tigers" are not reknown for
their examplary democracies, and they seem to demonstrate,
thet the democratic structure is not a pre-condition, but
a barrier to economic progress.)
I add: in the later stage of capitalism. Interesting,

Dear Colleagues,
Now that we have the full text of the Slovak "language law", it is essential
that we intensify our letter campaign. (If you need E-mail or fax numbers for
your local representatives or newspapers, please ask me for them.)
In your letters you could make the following specific points:
* The language laws can best be explained to third parties by saying, that
they are like if the citizens of Geneve were fined if they did not speak
German, or the people of Brussels or Montreal were penalized for not speaking
Dutch or English. Comparisons to the presently proposed and debated American
language laws do not clarify the nature of these laws.
* It is important to point out in our letters, that the recently adopted
language law is in DIRECT CONFLICT with the Slovak Constitution's 34/2/b
paragraph, which GUARANTEES the right of the minorities to use their
languages in all official and public communications.
* Particularly when writing to European politicians and newspapers, we should
emphasize that the source of tensions in the region is not Hungary, but the
government sponsored deteriorating state of human and cultural group rights
in Slovakia and Romania.
* Neither the former prime minister Jozef Moravcik, nor Jan Charnogursky
voted for this law.
* The language law infringes on the rights of the Slovak population also,
because if a language error or foreign word appears in a Slovak publication,
that publication can be fined $7500. (In case of TV/radio the fine is
$15,000.) As the penalty is payable to the "Pro Slovakia" organization, there
are also potentials for exploiting this law for political or personal
purposes (such as obtaining campaign funds for nationalist groups or
penalizing progressive ones).
* It is now clear that the laws and regulations enacted in Slovakia and
Romania are coordinated and serve to divert public attention from the
economic problems.
In writing our letters, we should particularly keep in mind Max van der
Stoel, the High Commissioner of Minorities in Europe. (I ask anyone who has
his E-mail, to send it to me.) We should also realize, that our politicians
are not familiar with these language laws. Andy Vadasz reported, that when he
talked with his Senator, it was the VERY FIRST TIME, the Senator heard about
this. That shows, that our campaign must intensify, that you too should write
or should write again(!) and that our letters must give some background
information also.
I would like to thank the Hungarian Communion of Friends (Magyar Barati
Kozosseg), which is also initiating a fax campaign.
If you or your friends/relatives would also like to take part in the work of
Hungarian Lobby, please send me their E-mail addresses. Starting next
year, we will have a separate listing, which will cover HL business only. All
who sign up by the end of the year, will automatically be included. After the
first of January, new participants can sign up by sending an E-mail to:
and writing in the body test: subscribe HL.
The HL list will publish the letters ONLY OF ITS MEMBERS and will concentrate
on lobbying actions and strategies, not on debates.

PS: If you know of a small apartment for rent (between January 21 and
February 3) in Budapest, please let me know.
Your line of anti-American bullshit's no more convincing than the one I
was originally responding to. You don't have the first clue about why
America is getting into Bosnia.You could, for instance, explain how
intervention in Bosnia is going to help anyone get re-elected when 6 out
of 10 Americans oppose the Bosnia mission.
What puzzles me is your obvious enthusiasm for parading your ignorance in
front of a worldwide audience. If I could offer you some advice, it would
be Abraham Lincoln's recommendation that it's better to keep one's mouth
shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
G'day, mate.

Sorry, I couldn't answer Andras's letter yesterday because at last my basset
hound bitch decided that it was time to whelp: eight puppies. Four boys, four
girls, all doing fine.
First of all, although I usually agree with Greg's astute observations, this
time I think that he is wrong. The argument between Andras and myself (and
others) is not based on different sensibilities. I am sure that my
sensibilities when it comes to Nazi Germany and the holocaust are exactly the
same as Andras's. The difference is that unfortunately Andras treats
historical events completely divorced from time and space and therefore his
analyses don't hold up. Moreover, we don't agree on something very
fundamental to democratic thinking: equality before the law. Bardossy,
Gombos, Teleki, whoever, cannot be treated differently from the rest of
society: same crime, same punishment.
>a few lean years during the war would have served the country better in
>the long run, wouldn't you agree?
Yes, it would have but I am not sure whether there ever was such option given
the strength of the right in Hungary.
>It's unclear what the price would have been. As it was, the price was quite
>terrible. In life: hundreds of thousands were killed. In territory: Hungary
>lost all chances for regaining any former parts. In property: the country
>devastated. In politics: Hungary lost all independence to the Soviets for
Starting at the end. Most likely the Soviet domination would have come in any
case, even if Hungary stood up to the Germans. The Poles did, and it didn't
matter. Yes, it is possible that if Hungary endured four or five years of
German occupation, Hungary might have received some contested territories in
exchange, vis a vis Slovakia and Romania, especially if these two countries
sided with the Germans. But in exchange for border revisions Hungary would
have lost, let's say, 200,000 more lives.
In any case, this discussion is becoming totally theoretical because, in
reality, I don't think that the option Andras advocates was ever a
possibility. The only option for the Hungarian government was the
establishment of a government-in-exile (a la the Poles or the Czechs), let
the Germans set up a puppet government and hope for the best. Such a plan was
considered in 1940-1941, but unfortunately abandoned.
And now let's return to Bardossy because the discussion went far beyond him.
Bardossy is not exactly a favorite of mine. Most likely Istvan Barcza was
right that he was a man of nervous disposition and extreme reactions. As
opposed to Kallay, he believed that Germany would win the war. He believed in
fighting Hungary's extreme right by taking the wind of their sail. He was
wrong in both. But, returning to the original discussion, I don't think that
he should have received the death sentence for crimes he most likely didn't

Let's take a look at chapter 14 for a moment. Joshua has gathered Eleazar the high priest and the leaders from each tribe in order to divide up the land of Canaan by lot as God had instructed Moses. But we see at verse 6 that Caleb, accompanied by the leaders of the tribe of Judah came to Joshua and reminded him of a 45 year old promise made to him by Moses himself.
You may remember that Caleb was with Joshua and the other men when Moses sent them to look over the promised land before the entire nation went in. When the spies returned to give a report, only Joshua and Caleb had unwavering faith in the promise of God and were willing to go forward and take the land. The others were afraid of the giants that inhabited the area then known as Kiriath Arba, later known as Hebron. On the day that they filed their report with Moses, Moses promised Caleb that "Surely the land on which you walked will belong to you and your descendants permanently, for you remained loyal to the Lord your God."
So Caleb reminded Joshua of that promise in our reading today, and he asked Joshua to give him this land and not make it part of the drawing of lots.
Another bit of history of this land might be interesting to you. When they first saw this area, Kiriath Arba, it was inhabited by Anakim, who were decedents of the Nephalim. They were giants. Their leader was named Arba. I'm sure you remember Abraham and Sarah. Kiriath Arba is where Sarah died. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob lived most of their lives in this general area, and they were buried here as well. So these could all be additional reasons that Caleb desired to have this land.
Of course, Joshua honored Moses' promise to Caleb, and gave the land to him and his heirs.

Breeds Affected: Domestic shorthair
Samples Accepted: Blood, Buccal Swabs
Disease Information: Primary Hyperoxaluria leads to a build-up of oxalate (oxalic acid) in the body of affected cats, which can then deposit in the kidney as calcium oxalate crystals. In addition to the problem with blockages, the kidneys cannot concentrate properly, leading to death by acute renal failure at under a year of age.
Inheritance Information: Primary Hyperoxaluria (PH2) is autosomal recessive, meaning that animals with two copies of this allele will be affected. Animals with one copy of the gene will be clinically-normal carriers.
The possible genotypes are:
N/N The cat is normal, and cannot produce affected offspring.
N/ph2 The cat is a carrier, and can pass the allele on to approximately 50% of any offspring. If bred to another N/ph2 carrier, approximately 25% of the offspring will be normal, 50% will be carriers, and 25% will be affected.
ph2/ph2 The cat is affected. If bred to a normal animal, 100% of the offspring will be carriers. If bred to an N/ph2 carrier, 50% of the offspring will be carriers and 50% will be affected.
– Carriers may be bred to normal animals (N/ph2 x N/N) without any risk of producing affected offspring. The offspring should be tested before breeding to determine if they are carriers or normal.
– Breeding two carriers (N/ph2 x N/ph2) is not recommended due to the possibility of 25% of the offspring being affected.
– Affected animals (ph2/ph2) should not be used for breeding.
Test Information: This mutation test identifies a single base change in the GRHPR gene.
Goldstein, RE., Narala, S., Sabet, N., Goldstein, O., McDonough, SP.: Primary Hyperoxaluria in Cats Is Caused by a Mutation in the Feline GRHPR Gene. J Hered 100 (Suppl. 1):S2-S7, 2009. Doi: 10.1093.jhered/esp038.

Lou Ferrara, Associated Press vice president and managing editor, prepared the following remarks for delivery Thursday at the College Media Association spring national convention in New York.
Good afternoon. Thanks for joining me today.
I'm Lou Ferrara, and I'm a managing editor at The Associated Press. I oversee sports, entertainment and business news, among other things, and I recently helped oversee AP's coverage of the Winter Olympics in Sochi.
My topic today is to address what it takes to cover big-time sports. The BIG GAMES. Exciting stuff, for sure. After all, who doesn't want to go to some of these events and see history unfold? The Super Bowl, the Olympics, the World Cup, the World Series.
Yet, the reality of what is needed is likely different from the perception many have about modern sports journalism. It isn't about getting tickets or attending games.
The day of being just a sports journalist is, in many ways, long gone. As a sports colleague recently put it to me: Sports reporters need to be journalists, first and foremost, with a hunger for news. Many people can write a game report. Only a few can root out the story behind the game.
Let me explain a bit more.
In the modern 24-7, hyper social media, televised world, covering the game is becoming – more and more — the easy part. In some corners, it is fully automated.
And I often wonder, as I've discussed with many of the AP staff, how coverage of games and game stories will need to change in the months and years ahead to adapt to the media landscape. I'm not ready to predict their death just yet – they remain in high demand and are widely read – but I think everyone would agree they will need to be different than what they were five or 10 years ago. And one day game stories could vanish as essential to coverage of sports.
So if the very fabric and foundation of big-game sports coverage is changing, if not disappearing, then the next logical step is this: How we cover sports is going to change even more than it has in the past few years. And we are seeing it all around us. Audiences are demanding it.
Let me give you some examples.
When I look in the very near past at the Sochi games, the sports and events themselves were almost a backdrop to the bigger story. Russia. Vladimir Putin. Security. Pussy Riot. Gay rights. Construction problems. Ukraine. And then there were other threads that got more attention than the game stories we wrote: Accessibility for the disabled. A worker hit by a bobsled. A malfunctioning Olympic ring that the world saw but Russians did not. How the IOC restricts athlete endorsements during the games. Or, how social media is part of the fabric of an Olympian's celebrity.
The same is true for so many other events or sports coverage. What are the top stories in the NFL right now? Michael Sam announcing he is gay and the bullying problems in Miami. How about MLB? Derek Jeter retiring and instant replay. What about college? The Penn State saga continues to play out and there is more money going into college sports right now than most industries on the planet.
That's not to say that the sports and the games aren't important. I need people who know how to write well to cover those events and develop sources at them.
But I also need really smart journalists at those events. Reporters who know how to dig and who can think on their feet, those who can identify a news story when they see it happening around the sport they are covering. Those who see there is more to sports than just the big games.
I'll give you some examples.
Jim Vertuno is AP's statehouse reporter in Austin, Texas. Most of the time he's dealing with government. But what is one of his niche beats? Lance Armstrong. Jim has never been to the Tour de France, but he's broken more news off the Armstrong story than pretty much any reporter.
How about Genaro Armas? He now covers sports in Wisconsin, but a few years ago he was in State College, Pennsylvania. It was Genaro's beat reporting and source development, albeit often related to attending games and working the beat, that kept AP ahead on so many fronts. And he allowed AP to be the first agency to accurately report when Joe Paterno died when other outlets got it wrong.
Or, Steve Wilson. He's an AP sports writer in London. He covers some matches, but most importantly he smartly covers the International Olympic Committee and all of its moves. He's the reason AP is first with so much Olympic news, which tends to set the tone and theme for many sports events around the world.
And this week, Gerald Imray, AP's sports writer in South Africa, is covering the incredible trial of Oscar Pistorius. Gerald's knowledge of Pistorius extends well beyond the track and continues to help in beat reporting a case that is being watched worldwide.
I can go on and on. AP has some of the greatest sports staff around and I'm fortunate to work with all of them.
My point is all of these great reporters are not just covering the games. The big games are just part of the story. These are smart reporters and they know how to see a story and dig. And I need more of them. If AP is to remain competitive in the world, I need to provide news and information that can't be obtained elsewhere and that comes from reporting. It is especially needed in sports, where there is big money at stake, huge audiences and growing markets.
There's no question we need journalism in sports. We just need to get past the idea that it is only about the big games.
So my takeaways for all of you aspiring to be the next great sports writer are this:
* Learn how to cover news. That means dealing with public records, cops, courts and government. Think of the Tiger Woods story. Biggest story at the time, and the reporting involved dealing with police and records. It never ventured onto a golf course.
* When you are at games, develop sources. Don't just sit there and write a story. The game is important, but get there early, linger, talk to people. If you aren't outgoing, become an extrovert and make yourself talk to lots of people. Lots, all the time.
* Realize that the great future sports reporters will know how to do much more than cover games. They will be masters of their beats and will know everything about the teams they cover and the leagues. And they will also know that everything that matters in sports extends well beyond the field of play. They will be ahead of the pack.
I'm happy to talk further, but I wanted to leave enough time for questions and discussion.
I should mention that I didn't come up in sports. My first job was covering business news, then education, then cops and courts and ultimately doing it in all formats. I got to know news first.

The 1911 Wright Model B Flyer
One hundred years ago, a very special aircraft helped change our nation and the world forever. It was the product of the Wright Company—a brainstorm of Orville and Wilbur Wright. The Wright Model B was the standard bearer of an industry emerging from its infancy. In 1911 and 1912, this airplane, and the people who flew it, shaped the modern world.
The Wright Experience has meticulously, and with absolute fidelity, recreated the Model B as an airworthy, flyable reproduction. Its pedigree is flawless.
Our Model B is a reproduction of Army Signal Corps Aircraft
#4, flown by Hap Arnold and Tom Milling. It is equipped with an original, working Wright vertical-four engine (Serial #33.) This engine was once the personal property of Orville Wright. The finishes, fabric, airframe, and fittings have been reproduced as accurately as possible following thousands of hours of primary source research and the creation of fully detailed, accurate plans.
This aircraft is now available for purchase from The Wright Experience. For further details and pricing, contact Ken Hyde.
Wing Span:
35-HP Original Wright V4, Serial #33
Reproduction Wright 1911 Bent-end
Aircraft Provenance
In the spring of 1911, two Army lieutenants soloed in Model Bs at the Wright School in Dayton. One later became 4-star General Thomas Milling. The other became 5-star General Henry "Hap" Arnold.
Arch Hoxsey flew President Theodore Roosevelt in a Model B in St. Louis in October, 1910—the first airplane flight by an American president.
From September 1911 to February 1912, the second flight across the country was made in a Wright Model B flying from California to Florida. Its pilot, Robert Fowler, flew into aviation history.
In 1911 and 1912, two pilots from the Wright Exhibition Team, Philip Parmelee and Clifford Turpin, crisscrossed the country in their Model B airplanes. Flying state fairs, offering rides, even being deputized and chasing bandits from the sky, they were pioneers of the air show as we know it today.
Exhibition and Education
Our reproduction Model B aircraft is ideal for preserving the rich heritage of American and aviation history. It represents the foundation of commercial and military powered flight. The Model B is the link, through Hap Arnold, to the modern Air Force. Through Robert Fowler, we see the shrinking of the continent and the origin of the modern air travel. Through Parmelee and Turpin, we see the spirit of adventure that propelled aviation advances for over a century.
Interactive use of the aircraft in a museum setting can enhance both formal and informal STEM learning by visitors and students. A reproduction Wright machine holds a unique advantage as teaching tool because all the fundamental principles of aircraft design are fully realized and accessible. Thanks to its open framework, the principles of three-axis control, wing warping, and power and propulsion can all be easily seen and demonstrated.

A brief biography of the founder of the Wright Experience
Ken W. Hyde
Marianne Miller Hudec, great-niece of the Wright Brothers, said, "I want you to know that in my view the work you are doing would have come first in Uncle Orv's eyes. No other organization besides yours has devoted itself to validating the science developed by the Wrights. And that is the thing that mattered most of all to them."
For Wright Experience™ founder Ken Hyde, it matters a great deal. For him it is important that 100 years from now the Wright Brothers' work is preserved for future generations to study and understand what these two remarkable men actually accomplished and how they accomplished it. A 2000 inductee into the Virginia Aviation Hall of Fame, Ken and his Wright Experience™ team are telling the story that the Wrights always intended to tell but never did.
Ken's passion for aviation came at an early age. His father's interest in aviation was quickly passed on to him. Afternoon family car rides always seemed to end up at the local airport. That passion was fueled by the guidance and encouragement of so many individuals who took an interest in this small town boy from Nokesville, Virginia. But it was the renowned Charlie Kulp, "The Flying Farmer," who shared with Ken his maintenance skills, technical expertise, and patience for restoring old airplanes.
Born April 26, 1939, the Virginia native earned both his pilot's and mechanics' licenses while still a high school student. Following high school, he went to work as a mechanic for Capital Airlines. In 1961, he joined the team at Bendix Corporation as a co-pilot/mechanic for the operation of instrumented aircraft for calibrating worldwide tracking stations for projects Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo.
He joined American Airlines in 1965 and retired in September 1999, with 33 years of service of flying DC-6's, DC-7's, L-188's, and Boeing 727's. The same year he went to work for American Airlines, he founded Virginia Aviation, an antique aircraft restoration company. He first gained national attention as the restorer of a number of vintage aircraft when his restoration of the Clipped-Wing Monocoupe "Little Butch" took EAA Grand Champion honors in 1975.
He also won EAA grand-national-champion honors in 1987 with his 1918 Curtiss Jenny. His list of restored projects for museums include aircraft for the National Air and Space Museum; the Cradle of Aviation Museum; the EAA Museum; the San Diego Aerospace Museum; the U.S. Army Aviation Museum at Ft. Rucker, Alabama; the U.S. Army Museum at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma; the Virginia Aviation Museum in Richmond; the Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington; the College Park Aviation Museum, College Park, Maryland and the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
It was in 1992 that he turned his attention to the Wright Brothers. The Army Aviation Museum at Fort Rucker, Alabama, commissioned Ken to build a reproduction of the 1911 Wright Model "B" that had become the Army's first practical airplane. What he found out was that the meticulous Wrights put very little of their work on paper or in one resource place. Instead, Ken discovered that it would take a full-time commitment to tell the entire story of what these two brothers accomplished.
Discovering the secrets of the Wright Brothers to inspire a new generation is what drives Ken Hyde and his Wright Experience™ team. Commissioned by the Ford Motor Company and the Experimental Aircraft Association, and authorized by the National Park Service, Ken reproduced the Wright's ultimate gift to mankind — the 1903 Flyer. People saw the Flyer come to life during 2003 Encampment and on December 17, 2003, at Kitty Hawk. That aircraft is now exhibited in the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.
A second 1903 Kitty Hawk Flyer was commissioned by Harry B. Combs of Lear Jet fame. This Flyer was Mr. Combs' gift to the nation and is on permanent display at the Wright Brothers National Memorial, Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
In April of 2005, The Museum of Flight, in Seattle, Washington, announced the acquisition of a third 1903 Wright Flyer built by Ken and his team. In September of 2006 the U.S. Naval Academy accepted delivery of a reproduction Wright Navy B-1 now hanging in Dahlgren Hall, USNA, Annapolis, Maryland.
Since 1992, Ken's team has made great strides toward understanding the secrets of the Wright Brothers. Wind tunnel tests on the 1903, 1904, and 1911 propellers have shown that the Wright propellers were exceedingly efficient. Projects currently underway include the preparation for flight testing and evaluation of a fifth Model B, the construction of fully accurate, airworthy 1908 Model "A" aircraft; and the restoration of two rare Wright Vertical Four engines, the only original working Wright engines in the world.

Title: Switched (Trylle Trilogy, #1)
Author: Amanda Hocking
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
Publication date: January 3, 2012
Amazon | Barnes&Noble | The Book Depository |
My Rating:
From Goodreads:
When Wendy Everly was six years old, her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her. Eleven years later, Wendy discovers her mother might have been right. She's not the person she's always believed herself to be, and her whole life begins to unravel—all because of Finn Holmes.
Finn is a mysterious guy who always seems to be watching her. Every encounter leaves her deeply shaken…though it has more to do with her fierce attraction to him than she'd ever admit. But it isn't long before he reveals the truth: Wendy is a changeling who was switched at birth—and he's come to take her home.
Now Wendy's about to journey to a magical world she never knew existed, one that's both beautiful and frightening. And where she must leave her old life behind to discover who she's meant to become…
I love the beautiful red cover, and, while it has a girl in a dress (I promise I won't go on another rant here), THIS dress is actually significant in the story. While I am a huge fan of Amanda Hocking and her Hollows series, I had some trouble getting into Switched. I'm blaming it on the fact that Switched was my first foray into audio books. Sadly, it may also be my last. Results: Not favorable. The narrator made Wendy sound like a whiny, spoiled brat, and Finn came across as a mean, controlling DB. I didn't want the audio/narrator to ruin the story or the characters for me, and, fortunately, I had a physical copy of Switched, so I was able to continue the story the good old-fashioned, nature-intended way.
Things got much better once I was able to lend my own voice to these characters. Turns out, Wendy... well, Wendy really is whiny and spoiled, but Finn, on the other hand... Finn was just, well...he made me...
"'I checked on you.' Finn gave me a look like I was an idiot. 'I check on you every morning.'
'You check on me when I'm sleeping?' I gaped at him. 'Every morning?'
He nodded.
'I didn't know that.'
'Why would you know that? You're sleeping,' Finn pointed out."

For aficionados, nothing says summer like just-picked tomatoes. They're at their peak, and chefs are celebrating with menus designed to showcase the scarlet globes. Alain Ducasse at the Essex House in New York City serves an appetizer of roasted tomatoes in a tomato gelee topped by tomato tuilles. Melisse in Santa Monica, Calif., offers an eight-course tomato tasting menu, and several eateries bake yellow-tomato cupcakes. The heirloom tomatoes that chefs like, including purple brandywines, green striped zebras and fuzzy blues, are popping up at farmers' markets and gourmet food shops, and the seeds are big sell- ers. But whatever types they...

Do you know what does the July 29th mean?
Based on the historical events on this day,
(1221) Japanese emperor Go-Horikawa aged only 10 years old ascends to the throne.
(1836) Inauguration of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris
(1921) Adolf Hitler becomes leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party
(1923) Albert Einstein speaks on pacifism in Berlin
(2018) 6.4 magnitude earthquake strikes island of Lombok, Indonesia
Well, in short every year something happens on the same day, and although I picked some events which caught my attention, those do not have direct meaning to me.
What's meaningful to me was the July 29th in 2018, the day I saw the rain for the first time in Mauritania. At that time we were in rainy season more than 1 month without any drip of water. You might think it is no big deal. But what matters is the meaning that brings to the life of each of us depending on the context, about which I would like to share, as there are some learnings which can be aplicable for other context (at least I hope).
