Food for Thought: Choosing a Staffing FirmNovember 30th, 2010 | Food for Thought | No Comments »
There's no doubt that using a staffing/recruiting firm greatly broadens the candidate pool for your open positions, turning up outstanding people you didn't even know existed. But all staffing firms were not created equal. So how do you know which one can fulfill your hiring goals?
The only way a firm can find you the perfect candidate is if they know what you're looking for. This goes beyond mere technical skills. Your company has its own unique culture, people, environment, and values, and the best candidate will have a personality and values that align with these. The firm that can find this best candidate is the one that gets to know you and your company in detail. If they don't ask these kind of questions from the beginning, chances are they won't find you the people you need.
Are they focused on quality or quantity? It's easy enough to advertise a position online and forward every qualifying resume to your inbox. And perhaps there will be an awesome candidate in that mountain of resumes, but the right staffing/recruiting firm won't leave that for you to figure out alone. A quality- focused firm goes above and beyond Internet advertising, and actively searches out quality people who they believe will be a great fit in your company, and only introduces you to the best.
The right recruiter will work hard to establish a long-term relationship with you. They'll give you all the hiring advice you need, and will maintain an entirely open conversation about every candidate. The best of them will create a partnership with you. How are you connecting with your recruiter?

ALPhANOV upgrades its microscope range with a new high-resolution SEM
The technology center ALPhANOV installed a 3rd generation high-resolution SEM VEGA3 from TESCAN.
This latest generation of SEM gives the opportunity to reach all new performances in the field of high-resolution microscopy. The integration of high-performance electronics allows for a faster image acquisition (a few minutes from the insertion of the sample in the chamber) and an image resolution lower than 5 nm in ideal measurement conditions. The new VEGA3 SEM gives the possibility to work in partial vacuum to obtain high-resolution images of non-conductive materials without the need for metallization. The observation of large samples, up to 50 mm x 50 mm, is also possible with the VEGA3 SEM.
The VEGA3 SEM is equipped with:
- Two electron detectors:
- Back-scattered electrons detector (BSE) for chemical contrast images
- Secondary electrons detector (SE) for topographic contrast images
- A detector to analyze the surface chemistry of materials (energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy detector, EDS)

In the opening scene of the 1998 movie Primary Colors, a southern governor modeled after Bill Clinton was campaigning for the Democratic primary when he stopped by an adult literacy program. There he met "Dewayne," a dyslexic short-order chef who had been let down by the public education system. "Until I come here," he told the governor, "I couldn't read a lick. They just kept passing me up. Third grade, fourth grade. I just sit in the back, sticking to my own self. It was like no one noticed."
It was stories like these, repeated a million times over, that led governors in the 1980s and '90s to set standards in reading and math, and to start to hold schools accountable for helping their students meet them. The same impulse led states to set more rigorous graduation requirements, so that nobody would leave high school without basic literacy and numeracy skills. This was a bipartisan effort, with leaders such as New Jersey's Tom Kean and Christine Todd Whitman paving the way. It was, in the words of President George W. Bush, an effort to end "the soft bigotry of low expectations."
This blast from the past is important to remember now because there are advocacy organizations calling for the outright elimination of the exit exams, based on the notion that these exams disproportionately affect minority and low-income students. The "soft bigotry" may be creeping back in.
In fairness, the politicians aren't to blame, at least not yet. In December, an appellate judge struck down New Jersey's graduation exams because they don't conform precisely to state law. That sent the governor, education commissioner, and legislators scrambling for a solution. The current plan is to allow today's juniors and seniors to graduate regardless of whether they actually took the graduation test as long as they meet alternative requirements, and to somehow find — by next year — a suitable new test to administer to today's sophomores.
One absurd possibility
Given the vagaries of state procurement — and the long timeline for developing new, high-quality tests — there's a serious possibility that this approach will result in a class of students graduating without needing to demonstrate their academic preparedness. Or even more absurd, the New Jersey Department of Education might give next year's 11th graders the same test that they are required to take this spring to meet federal testing requirements. Making students take the same test two years in a row is hardly what the public had in mind when it voiced its support for less testing!
Thankfully, a better solution is at hand. A bill that has passed the state Senate and is working its way through the Assembly would change the law to allow New Jersey to continue to use its current, high-quality assessments as graduation requirements. It would also "grandfather" in today's juniors and seniors, while reinstating some clarity and predictability for sophomores and the students coming up behind them. And it would ensure that New Jersey does not return indefinitely, perhaps permanently, to the practice of letting students graduate even if they can't read their own diplomas.
Some might think that it's unfair to withhold diplomas from students who can't pass the state tests, especially young people coming from challenging circumstances. But that's exactly backwards. If we want to help the Dewaynes of the world, and ensure that schools help them build the academic skills critical to their success, we need to maintain high expectations. The good news — from New Jersey as well as top-performing states like Massachusetts — is that when we set a high bar, and focus on helping students clear it, our kids, our educators, and our schools rise to meet the challenge. Now is no time to give up.

W88 Sports began by offering casino games, with the live dealer section following shortly after and the transition to sports betting and poker was only the natural step forward. Unlike other gambling operators that are licensed and regulated with authorities in Europe or Curaçao, these guys chose to apply for a license issued by the First Cagayan Leisure and Resorts Corporation.
At a first glance, this looks like a risky decision because new bookmakers and online casinos for what that matters are supposed to try to build a rocksolid reputation. W88 Sports has the advantage of a smooth start and with no disgruntled customers, they had no real problem in consolidating their prestige. They built a name for themselves for offering a comprehensive selection of sports, casino games and all sorts of poker games, high odds and the low house edge on most markets.
Sports betting markets
W88 Sports has a single betting account for all forms of gambling, with players being initially taken to the bookmaker area. This is where most of them choose to sign up and wager real money, with a wide choice of Asian handicaps, odds/even, hi lo and other forms of betting. The odds are displayed in decimal, American and fractional formats, so players who are used to one system don't have to learn the ropes and can start placing lucrative bets right away.
A new section that was opened a few months ago is the one dedicated to beginners, where players can hone their skills and earn while they learn. This portal of nonstop information is built by the bookmaker in conjunction with the gamers, which means that the flow of data is insured. Players learn about how to combine multiple events on the same betting slip as well as the corresponding advantages and shortcomings, while being provided with state-of-the-art software.
The betting platform supports live wagering in all its forms, with mobile gambling being by far the most popular and supported on devices powered by iOS and Android operating systems. At least in theory, the same smartphones and tablets should support live streaming, but W88 Sports doesn't even offer it for desktop users. It is one of the few pieces of the puzzle still missing and the additional charts and statistics offered to those who bet live are simply a consolation for not being able to watch the games in real-time.
Football is the sport that reigns supreme at W88 Sports, with the emphasis being obviously placed on the most important domestic competitions in Europe. These are the ones that bring together the best athletes from all over the world and are home to some of the toughest football teams. The same attention is paid to international competitions from all continents, although the total number of average markets usually revolves around 40 which is not that much.
W88 Sports brags about diversity and much to their credit, they cover the popular sports and even go down the less traveled paths in an attempt of meeting punters halfway. They could've done a better job at showing the same attention to those who bet on sports that normally spend less time in the spotlight, particularly motorsports. With races scheduled a few times a week, fans of the genre could feel shortchanged knowing that they only have a couple of betting options prior to kickoff and the markets close after the start.

Love is a feeling that can only be felt by those who have experienced it.
Love is to be with the one through thick and thin.
Love is to feel save in a lover's embrace.
Love is to take care of each other.
Love is not about saying 'I love you' it's a feeling expressed through lover's eyes.
Love makes you fearless.
Love is selfless.
Love is to let go.
Love is to wait for someone for the rest of your life and believe that one day it's going to be worth it!
I know it will be…some day!

Bahrain ranks in the top 10 globally for expat satisfaction – the lifestyle that awaits you and your employees is superb.
Bahrain is not just business friendly—friendliness is perhaps our defining national characteristic. Bahrainis are warm and welcoming and the atmosphere is relaxed, cosmopolitan and outward-looking. We've been ranked as the 7th best destination globally for expats to work, live, and raise a family in 2019 InterNations Expat Survey, and first in MENA for personal happiness.
Bahrain ranked number one in MENA for the third year running in the 2019 InterNations Expat Survey, with particularly high scores across 'ease of settling in', 'feeling at home', and 'cost of living', and 2nd globally as the easiest place to settle in. Bahrain also placed 1st globally in the HSBC's 2019 Expat Explorer Survey for work/life balance and reaching potential.
Bahrain's 4,000+ year old history as a commercial crossroads has created a legacy of diversity and acceptance. Bahrain boasts a multi-faith society that sees Buddhist temples, Christian churches, Jewish synagogues and Muslim mosques sitting side-by-side for years. Based on the 2019 InterNations Expat Survey, more than double the global average of expats think it's not at all difficult to settle down in Bahrain and well over double the global average say it is very easy to make local friends here.
Bahrain's history and culture stretch back millennia, so we have accumulated a powerful legacy of archeological and historic treasures, which include three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Bahrain Fort, the Pearling Trail and the Dilmun Burial Mounds. Visitors can also enjoy modern Arab culture with a wealth of art, dining and lifestyle experiences such as the Spring of Culture and the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix.
The 2019 InterNations Expat Survey shows Bahrain is 1st in MENA for cost of living and 2nd for personal finance, job security and job satisfaction. Surveys conducted by HSBC alsow show that Bahrain ranks 5th globally in disposable income for expats.
Employees and visitors can enter Bahrain easily, thanks to our supportive visa policies: Bahrain offers a one-month visa upon arrival to nationals of 69 countries, with the ability to renew for an additional three months. Bahrain has also extended its eVisa eligibility to 116 countries.
``Bahrain amongst the GCC, is the best place for an expat to live. A home away from home.``
``Enjoy the friendliness and hospitality of the Bahraini people!``

I was with someone recently, discussing a problem that they are working through. I encouraged them to take it seriously and deal with the issue with urgency. As part of that conversation, I told him about a church service that I will never forget.
I was visiting another church to observe its culture and to interview their worship pastor. It just so happened to be Super Bowl Sunday and they were having a Sunday night service. If you're going to have a service that competes against the Super Bowl, you are going to have to do something unusual and extraordinary. That is exactly what they did.
During the sermon, two men walked out on the platform carrying a two to three foot alligator. They set the alligator down; un-taped his mouth, and let him go. He hissed and lunged back and forth. The pastor continued to speak even though no one was listening. Everyone was watching the small alligator to see what it would do.
After several minutes, the men returned, grabbed the alligator and re-taped his mouth and carried it off the stage. The pastor regained the attention of the crowd while never explaining why he had loosed an alligator on stage. Then, suddenly, six guys walked out on stage with a six to eight foot alligator and set it down. They un-taped the alligator's mouth and let it go. It immediately lunged towards the congregation. The two front rows quickly cleared as the people ran towards the back of the room. As before, the pastor continued speaking although no one was listening. About five minutes later, the six men came back and recaptured the alligator, re-taped its mouth and carried it off the stage.
Once the pastor regained everyone's attention, he made this point. Little alligators can wound you, but they can't kill you. Big alligators can. Deal with your sin and your problems when they are little. They may seem harmless when small, but don't play with things that can grow and eventually destroy your life. I will never forget that service or that lesson. I hope you won't either. For more on this subject visit, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsOfXZOQGtE

Ostearchaeological Analysis and Radiocarbon Dating of Early Bronze Age Human Remains in Tyne & Wear Museums Collections
- Project Leader: Chris Fowler, Michelle Gamble
- Sponsors: Newcastle University Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Research Fund
This project involved the osteoarchaeological re-analysis – and in some cases the first such analysis – of human remains recorded as deriving from the Early Bronze Age in the collections.
This analysis fed into a wider project cataloguing, analysing and providing a synthesis of recorded Chalcolithic (or Terminal Neolithic) and Early Bronze Age mortuary deposits in Northeast England.
Following the osteological analysis and assessment of the archaeological information for each burial, ten samples of bone were selected for radiocarbon analysis, which was carried out at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit. The results enhance our understanding of the chronology of different mortuary practices in the region.
The results of this project will be published as a series of articles and fed into the production of a book exploring a new theoretical and methodological approach through an analysis of Early Bronze Age mortuary deposits in Northeast England, while the detailed data on the human remains will be made available via the Archaeology Data Service webpage in 2013.

Have you ever felt sick after flying, only to assume it's jetlag or a virus you picked up from another passenger? Well, think again! You might have been exposed to an insecticide, pesticides or other toxic chemicals – deliberately used by airline staff.
I think airline passengers should be outraged to know that poisonous chemicals are now being sprayed on planes regularly – DURING the flight, while travelers are inside the plane, This is true – the United States government is actually pushing this agenda of poisoning passengers.
This process is being referred to as "disinsection," a word that seems to have been made up by the TSA or airline industry. Disinsection, or the spraying of an insecticide or pesticides on planes, is now permitted under international law. The Department of Transportation says that the supposed intent is to protect public health, crops and agriculture, and the environment.
The International Civil Aviation Organization and World Health Organization (WHO) admit that aircraft cabins are being sprayed with what they are calling a "fast-acting insecticide" with passengers on board, right before takeoff. Some airlines are instead treating aircraft interiors with a "residual-insecticide aerosol" right before passengers get on board.

DreamWorks Pictures, officially DW II Distribution Co., LLC, also known as DreamWorks, LLC, DreamWorks SKG, DreamWorks Studios or DW Studios, LLC, is an American film studio which develops, produces, and distributes films, video games and television programming. It has produced or distributed more than ten films with box-office grosses totaling more than $100 million each.
DreamWorks began in 1994 as an ambitious attempt by media moguls Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen (forming the SKG present on the bottom of the DreamWorks logo) to create a new Hollywood studio of which they own 72%. In December 2005, the founders agreed to sell the studio to Viacom, parent of Paramount Pictures. The sale was completed in February 2006. In 2008, DreamWorks announced its intention to end its partnership with Paramount and signed a $1.5 billion deal to produce films with India's Reliance ADA Group. Reliance provided $325 million of equity to fund recreating Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks studio as an independent entity. Clark Hallren, former Managing Director of the Entertainment Industries group of J.P. Morgan Securities and Alan J. Levine of J.P. Morgan Entertainment Advisors led the Reliance team in structuring the capital and business plan for the company.
The movie studio is 50% owned by Reliance which is led by Anil Ambani. DreamWorks' animation arm was spun off in 2004 into DreamWorks Animation SKG. Its films were distributed worldwide by Paramount, but the animation studio remained independent of Paramount/Viacom.
The company was founded following Katzenberg's resignation from weekly/dealmakers/weekly-mo in 1994. At the suggestion of a friend of Spielberg, the two made an agreement with long-time Katzenberg collaborator David Geffen to start their own studio. The studio was officially founded on October 12, 1994 with financial backing of $33iety.cmillion from each of the three main partners and $500ssdatemillion from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. In 1998, The United States 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lawsuit against DreamWorks for trademark infringement on DreamWorks Production Group, Inc., a company mostly specializing in Star Trek Conventions. In 1998, DreamWorks released its first full-length animated feature, riend of Spi. In 1999, 2000 and 2001, DreamWorks won three consecutive Academy Awards for Best Picture for ally founded on October 12, 1994 with financia, backing of $33 million from each o and three main partners and $500 million from (the later two with Universal).
DreamWorks Interactive is a computer and video game developer founded in 1995, as a subsidiary of DreamWorks SKG. On February 24, 2000, Electronic Arts announced the acquisition of DreamWorks Interactive from DreamWorks and merged it with EA Pacific and Westwood Studios. DreamWorks Interactive became EA Los Angeles (EALA).
DreamWorks Records is the company's record label, the first project of which was George Michael's Older album. The first band signed to this label was the "eels" who released their debut album "Beautiful Freak" in 1997. The record company never lived up to expectations, though, and was sold in October 2003 to Universal Music Group, which operated the label as DreamWorks Nashville. That label was shut down in 2005 when its flagship artist, Toby Keith, departed to form his own label. The studio has had its greatest financial success with movies, specifically animated movies. DreamWorks Animation teamed up with Pacific Data Images (now known as PDI/DreamWorks) in 1996, emerging as the main competitor to Pixar in the age of computer-generated animation and one of the few competitors to Disney in creating traditionally animated feature films. DreamWorks Animation has produced some of the highest grossing animated hits of all time, such as Antz (1998), Shrek (2001), its sequels Shrek 2 (2004), Shrek the Third (2007) and Shrek Forever After (2010); Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002), Madagascar (2005), its sequel, Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008), Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005), Over the Hedge (2006), Flushed Away (2006), Bee Movie (2007), Kung Fu Panda (2008), its sequel, Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011), Monsters Vs. Aliens (2009), How to Train Your Dragon (2010), Megamind (2010), and Puss in Boots (2011). Based on the films' success, DreamWorks Animation has spun off as its own publicly traded company. In recent years, DreamWorks has scaled back. It stopped plans to build a high-tech studio, sold its music division, and has only produced a few television series, Las Vegas, Carpoolers and On the Lot, for example.
David Geffen admitted that DreamWorks had come close to bankruptcy twice. Under Katzenberg's watch, the studio suffered a $125 million loss on Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, and also overestimated the DVD demand for Shrek 2. In 2005, out of their two large budget pictures, The Island bombed at the domestic box office, while War of the Worlds was produced as a joint effort with Paramount which was the first to reap the profits. In December 2005, Viacom's Paramount Pictures agreed to purchase the live-action studio. The deal was valued at approximately $1.6 billion, an amount that included about $400 million in debt assumptions. The company completed its acquisition on February 1, 2006.
On March 17, 2006, Paramount agreed to sell a controlling interest in the DreamWorks live-action library (pre-09/16/2005; DW Funding, LLC) to Soros Strategic Partners and Dune Entertainment II. The film library is valued at $900 million. Paramount retained the worldwide distribution rights to these films, as well as various ancillary rights, including music publishing, sequels and merchandising. This includes films that had been made by Paramount and DreamWorks (the music publishing rights were later licensed to Sony-ATV Music Publishing when that company acquired Paramount's Famous Music subdivision). The sale was completed on May 8, 2006. On March 12, 2007, DreamWorks Animation announced it would release all of its films, beginning with Monsters vs. Aliens (2009), in stereoscopic 3D.
In June 2008, Variety reported that DreamWorks was looking for financing that would allow it to continue operations as an independent production company once its deal with Paramount ended later in the year. Most of the backing would come from an Indian investment firm called Reliance ADA Group. The DreamWorks trademarks are owned by DreamWorks Animation and the new company would need their approval to use the trademarks. In September 2008, it was reported by Variety that Dreamworks closed a deal with Reliance to create a stand-alone production company and end its ties to Paramount.
The DreamWorks logo features a young boy sitting on a crescent moon while fishing. The general idea for the logo was the brainchild of company co-founder Steven Spielberg, who originally wanted a computer-generated image, whereas Visual Effects Supervisor Dennis Muren, of Industrial Light and Magic suggested a hand-painted one. Muren then contacted a friend and fellow artist, Robert Hunt, to paint it. Hunt worked on both versions, for each of which his son William was cast as the model for the boy, and Spielberg liked the CGI one better. The music accompanying the logo to start live-action DreamWorks movies was specially composed by John Williams; the DreamWorks Animation logo has music from the Harry Gregson-Williams/John Powell score for Shrek. The logo attached to feature films was made at ILM based on paintings by Hunt, in collaboration with Kaleidoscope Films, Dave Carson and Clint Goldman.
On February 9, 2009, DreamWorks entered into a long-term, 30-picture distribution deal with Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures by which the films will be released through the Touchstone Pictures banner over the next five years. This agreement is reported to have come after negotiations broke off with Universal Pictures just days earlier. However, this deal does not include Indian distribution rights, which will be handled by Reliance, nor does it include DreamWorks Animation, whose films will still be distributed by Paramount through to late 2012. Also not included are sequels to live-action films released before the Paramount merger, or those released by Paramount themselves – Paramount retains the rights to these franchises, and one such sequel, Little Fockers, was released by Paramount internationally in December 2010 (Universal owns domestic rights). The broadcast and basic subscription cable television distribution rights to many DreamWorks films are owned by Disney-ABC International Television (formerly known as Buena Vista International). Ironically, ABC Studios (along with Pixar) is owned by Disney, with which Katzenberg had a falling out. In South Korea, CJ Entertainment has the rights to release all DreamWorks' films, except some co-productions (for example, Minority Report was distributed by Fox, and The Island by Warner Bros., due to these studios having owned the international rights to these films). Formerly, United International Pictures, a joint venture of Paramount and Universal, released DreamWorks' films internationally (except South Korea).
Edwin R. Leonard, CTO of DreamWorks Animation, won a special achievement award at the 2008 Annies for driving their innovative work with Open Source Software and Linux.

DreamWorks Pictures/Distribution
First film library spun off in DW Funding LLC and controlling interest sold to Soros Strategic Partners LP and Dune Entertainment II LLC. In February 2010, Viacom acquired the Soros/Dune stake.

The NEW FS 240 R loop handle brushcutter is a new generation machine featuring stratified scavenging engine technology which reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% and fullfils all emission regulations. Equipped with a gear head angle of 30° and a simplified starting procedure with momentary stop switch, this unit replaces the legendary FS 250 R and is ideal for landscapers in all professional applications.
New professional brushcutter

2-stroke reduced-emission engine technology
2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions.
Simplified starting system
Simply set the choke, pump the fuel primer, pull the starter cord and away you go! The running machine then switches off after a brief press of the stop button. Once the machine is at a standstill, the ignition activates again automatically. Thus the ignition is always ready for starting.
Loop handle (R)
The loop handled grass trimmers and brushcutters are ideal for working in areas where space is limited, e.g. thinning between bushes and shrubs.
Anti-vibration system
Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
Multi-function control handle
Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator's hand never leaves the handle.
Shoulder strap / carrying system
Using a STIHL shoulder strap or carrying harness with soft padding makes work more comfortable, particularly during lengthy jobs.

Isadore Insulated Bidon
Keeps the water fresh and clean at all times
- Specially insulated with Chromatek™ liner
- Flexibly squeezable even in cold temps
- Leak proof bottle
- Purist technology prevents bad taste, mould, and staining
- BPA-free
- Volume of the bottle: 23 Oz / 680 ml
Isadore Bidons are a welcome oasis for long rides. The Insulated Signature Bottle is made from using Purist technology and features the Chromatek™ liner to insulate your liquids. Whether in the heat of summer or cold of winter, your drinks will remain insulated from the severity of the weather.
The Insulated Signature bidon features our logo and brand manifesto: "Road is the way of life".
No bad taste, mold or stains
The defining feature of the bidons is the Purist technology: it keeps the water (or any other liquid) fresh and without any external and unwanted taste. The technology also protects the bottle from mould and staining. With the added insulating liner, you can count on your liquids staying a palatable temp through all weathers.
Keep it cool for hot rides or warm for cold rides
The bottles stand extremely cold temperatures – they can be frozen or filled with ice.
The healthy choice
Isadore Bidons don't contain BPA and are made of food-safe FDA approved materials.
How to maintain
The interior of an Insulated Purist bottle should never be scrubbed with an abrasive material or brush. The best cleaning is simply to rinse it out after each use, and when needed rinse with warm water and a mild detergent.
Insulates Well
William Campbell, Canada, 28.6.2018
Water bottles work great. Insulate better than Camelback and definitely look better. Pop up mouthpiece is comfortable and is, for me at least, preferable to the twist open bottles I've used in past. I'm sure the soft nipple will be less durable as a result but to be honest you should probably be replacing your water bottle at that time anyways.
Olivier, Switzerland, 14.9.2018
Le design de cette gourde est sympa. Je trouve cependant que sa capacité à garder frais un liquide est un peu limité.
Jörg Richner, Switzerland, 17.3.2018
Actually, when I bought two of the bidons I thought these are for hot liquids in cold weather. When I received the bidons, I read the label. It said «no hot liquids». What a pity!
bidon doesn't insulate as expected
Max Odráška, Czech Republic, 20.1.2019
bought it for cold rides to keep my water from getting ice cold, which the bidon unfortunately can't do. my experience is that the water freezes after couple hours in temperatures around -5*C. it's little better than with a classic bidon but much worse than expected.

Just re-read a slim 1979 volume of essays/columns by Lewis Thomas, and was as taken as the first time. Superb writing, and some thoughts that really get me. I found one of those online:
On Warts
Warts are wonderful structures. They can appear overnight on any part of the skin, like
mushrooms on a damp lawn, full grown and splendid in the complexity of their
architecture. Viewed in stained sections under a microscope, they are the most
specialized of cellular arrangements, constructed as though for a purpose. They sit there
like turreted mounds of dense, impenetrable horn, impregnable, designed for defense
against the world outside.
The man is much into music but befitting his times it's all Bach and such. For me other stuff works better, but I tend to think that deep down the source is the same. Thomas would/might have thoroughly disagreed. But being awed by someone's writing and clarity of thought doesn't mean one has to agree with warts and all:
In a certain sense, warts are both useful and essential, but not for us. As it turns out, the
exuberant cells of a wart are the elaborate reproductive apparatus of a virus.
You might have thought from the looks of it that the cells infected by the wart virus were
using this response as a ponderous way of defending themselves against the virus, maybe as a way of becoming more distasteful, but it is not so. The wart is what the virus truly wants; it can flourish only in cells undergoing precisely this kind of overgrowth. It is not a defense at all; it is an overwhelming welcome, and enthusiastic accommodation
meeting the needs of more and more virus.
The strangest thing about warts is that they tend to go away. Fully grown, nothing in the
body has so much the look of toughness and permanence as a wart, and yet, inexplicably
and often very abruptly, they come to the end of their lives and vanish without a trace.
And they can be made to go away by something that can only be called thinking, or
something like thinking. This is a special property of warts which is absolutely
astonishing, more of a surprise than cloning or recombinant DNA or endorphin or
acupuncture or anything else currently attracting attention in the press. It is one of the
great mystifications of science: warts can be ordered of the skin by hypnotic suggestion.
Not everyone believes this, but the evidence goes back a long way and is persuasive.
Generations of internists and dermatologists, and their grandmothers for that matter, have been convinced of the phenomenon. I was once told by a distinguished old professor of medicine, one of Sir William Osier's original bright young men, that it was his practice to paint gentian violet over a wart and then assure the patient firmly that it would be gone in a week, and he never saw it fail. There have been several meticulous studies by good clinical investigators, with proper controls. In one of these, fourteen patients with
seemingly intractable generalized warts on both sides of the body were hypnotized, and
the suggestion was made that all the warts on one side of the body would begin to go
away. Within several weeks the results were indisputably positive; in nine patients, all or
nearly all of the warts on the suggested side had vanished, while the control side had just
as many as ever.
It is interesting that most of the warts vanished precisely as they were instructed, but it is
even more fascinating that mistakes were made. Just as you might expect in other affairs
requiring a clear understanding of which is right and which the left side, one of the
subjects got mixed up and destroyed the warts on the wrong side. In a later study by a
group at the Massachusetts General Hospital, the warts on both sides were rejected
though the instructions were to pay attention to just one side.
I have been trying to figure out the nature of the instructions issued by the unconscious
mind, whatever that is, under hypnosis. It seems to me hardly enough for the mind to say, simply, get off, eliminate yourselves, without providing something in the way of
specifications as to how to go about it.
I used to believe, thinking about this experiment when it was first published, that the
instructions might be quite simple. Perhaps nothing more detailed than a command to
shut down the flow through all the pre-capillary arterioles in and around the warts to the point of strangulation. Exactly how the mind would accomplish this with precision,
cutting off the blood supply to one wart while leaving the others intact, I couldn't figure
out, but I was satisfied to leave it there anyhow. And I was glad to think that my
unconscious mind would have to take responsibility for this, for if I had been one of the
subjects I would never have been able to do it myself.
But now the problem seems much more complicated by the information concerning the
viral etiology of warts, and even more so by the currently plausible notion that
immunologic mechanisms are very likely implicated in the rejection of warts. If my unconscious can figure out how to manipulate the mechanisms needed for getting
around that virus, and for deploying all the various cells in the correct order for tissue
rejection, then all I have to say is that my unconscious is a lot further along than I am. I
wish I had a wart right now, just to see if I am that talented.
There ought to be a better word than "Unconscious," even capitalized, for what I have, so
to speak, in mind. I was brought up to regard this aspect of thinking as a sort of private
sanitarium, walled off somewhere in a suburb of my brain, capable only of producing
such garbled information as to keep my mind, my proper Mind, always a little off
But any mental apparatus that can reject a wart is something else again. This is not the
sort of confused, disordered process you'd expect at the hands of the kind of Unconscious
you read about in books, out at the edge of things making up dreams or getting mixed up
on words or having hysterics. Whatever, or whoever, is responsible for this has the
accuracy and precision of a surgeon. There almost has to be a Person in charge, running
matters of meticulous detail beyond anyone's comprehension, a skilled engineer and
manager, a chief executive officer, the head of the whole place. I never thought before
that I possessed such a tenant. Or perhaps more accurately, such a landlord, since I would be, if this is in fact the situation, nothing more than a lodger.
Among other accomplishments, he must be a cell biologist of world class, capable of
sorting through the various classes of one's lymphocytes, all with quite different functions which I do not understand, in. order to mobilize the right ones and exclude the wrong ones for the task of tissue rejection. If it were left to me, and I were somehow empowered to call up lymphocytes and direct them to the vicinity of my wart (assuming I could learn to do such a thing), mine would come tumbling in all unsorted, B cells and T cells, suppressor cells and killer cells, and no doubt other cells whose names I have not learned, incapable of getting anything useful done!
Even if immunology is not involved, and all that needs doing is to shut off the blood
supply locally, I haven't the faintest notion how to set that up. I assume that the selective
turning off of arterioles can be done by one or another chemical mediator, and I know the names of some of them, but I wouldn't dare let things like these loose even if I knew how to do it.
Well, then, who does supervise this kind of operation? Someone's got to, you know. You
can't sit there under hypnosis, taking suggestions in and having them acted on with such
accuracy and precision, without assuming the existence of something very like a
controller. It wouldn't do to fob off the whole intricate business on lower centers without
sending along a quite detailed set of specifications, way over my head.
Some intelligence or other knows how to get rid of warts, and this is a disquieting
It is also a wonderful problem, in need of solving. Just think what we would know, if we
had anything like a clear understanding of what goes on when a wart is hypnotized away. We would know the identity of the cellular and chemical participants in tissue rejection, conceivable with some added information about the ways that viruses create foreignness in cells. We would know how the traffic of these reactants is directed, and perhaps then be able to understand the nature of certain diseases in which the traffic is being conducted in wrong directions, aimed at the wrong cells. Best of all, we would be finding out about a kind of super intelligence that exists in each of us, infinitely smarter and possessed of technical know-how far beyond our present understanding. It would be worth a War on Warts, a Conquest of Warts, a National Institute of Warts and All.
Let's get back to Bach and such. The only footage I could find online of Thomas were shots in a 1980 documentary about music wherein Thomas figures as one of the commentators on what music is and does. One of the essays (on thinking about thinking) in the book I just re-read is about music and it contains this gem:
Music is the effort we make to explain to ourselves how our brains work. We listen to Bach transfixed because this is listening to a human mind. (p.154)
However that may be, in that doc he shares the stage with Yehudi Menuhin, who did stuff like this, which, given his appreciation for Bach, would have been closer to Thomas' heart than the rhythms of Stomp above. So lets give the man his due and honor him with something that I'm sure we both like:
