Any comment on the residence halls experience? For me, by living in the residence halls I learned so much about myself, I got connected to the University in a way I wouldn't have imagined, being so close to everything in some respects makes you so close to everyone.
What activities/organizations are you involved in? Currently I am involved in Campus Ambassadors, and am the president of our club on campus called Colleges Against Cancer who put on Relay for Life. I spent the last full academic year studying abroad, first to Spain and then to Mexico. I wouldn't change any of my experiences, they were such great opportunities to learn and grow.
What's on your Ipod right now? Ingrid Michealson & Michael Buble
Where do you work during school? Academic Skills Center, Tutoring Spanish of course ;)
Best place to study: The Goat on Water Street… great music, amazing coffee, and a chill atmosphere.. free wifi too!
Best thing/place to eat on campus: Green Mountain, for breakfast… tons of different coffee flavors, bagels, smoothies, & muffins.
Best place to eat in Eau Claire: Hmm… SO many… I would have to say The Nucleus on Water Street… honestly, hands down the best omelets I have every had… perfect for a nice Sunday morning.
Favorite thing to do when you get free time: If it is in the summer time, usually floating down the river with friends & grilling out. Winter…I'd have to say going to a coffee shop & getting a nice hot latte & meeting with friends to chat.
Favorite activity/place off-campus: The Budget Theater… $2.00 to see a movie!! It is incredible...and close.
Favorite activity/place on-campus: The Cabin… with shows on the weekends, right next to our coffee shop.
Best class so far: Speech. I learned so much about myself and the kind of person I want to be. The class was directed around improving not only our speaking abilities but our self confidence & ideas about life.
Best professor: Fred Kolb. He is hands down the most amazing person I have met because of his view of the world & life. He is real, down to earth & very open. I felt so welcomed in his class freshman year, and I will never forget that because still to this day, I email and call him about ideas and thoughts.
Best thing about being a student at UWEC: THE PEOPLE!! Everyone is so friendly and open. I love walking on campus and seeing the smiling faces, even when the students may be stressed about something in school. It is a very friendly campus and helpful. Meeting new people and seeing old friends is like having a iced cup of coffee on my porch on a summer day… beautiful.
Best reason to stay up until 2a.m.: Watching the Office, best.show.in.the.world., with friends & eating popcorn.
Why did you pick UWEC? Honestly, it was just a gut feeling. I had a tour and had thought I wanted to go to Madison, but after my tour and visit in Eau Claire… I just knew that it was the right fit for me. My heart felt it and I felt good walking around on the beautiful campus.
Best advice for getting the most out of college: Get involved, with anything that interests you… don't hesitate to ask questions, we were all in the same boat for our first year, & we are here to help.
Best Blugold tradition/event: Getting all your friends together and going to Higher Ground to dance the night away.
Best memory/experience in college so far: There are so many, but if I just had to choose one… Floating down the river last summer, with a group from campus, Orientation Assistants,… laughing so hard we were crying & heading back to my friend's house to grill out and laugh some more.
Why you want to be on my tour in 5 words or less: I'm happy at Eau Claire. (& I think you will be too)

Monitor-Switching Hotkeys for GNOME
October 25th, 2011 | Et Cetera, TutorialI just set up something really convenient for myself and I have to share it, though it's somewhat outside of the normal scope of this blog. I use a laptop that's normally connected to a full-size monitor, so I often have to switch between two different monitor configurations–kind of a hassle. But not anymore, because now I can switch using hotkeys. Here's how it's done:
- Get the monitor config tool "ArandR" ($ sudo apt-get install arandr)
- Use it to create and save two monitor configurations, one for the laptop and one for the main screen. These configuration files are actually shell scripts.
- Run gconf-editor and navigate to apps/metacity/keybinding_commands. Set the values of two commands to the paths to your shell scripts. (i.e., /path/to/script.sh)
- In apps/metacity/global_keybindings, set the hotkey combination for the commands you just set.
- Enjoy easy monitor configuration!
Thanks to this tutorial for showing how to set the hotkeys. Note that this uses Metacity, so it will not work if running other window managers, such as Compiz.

Free Indy!
July 6th, 2011 | Et CeteraThe character of Indiana Jones has become ingrained in our culture to the point of becoming an archetype in and of himself. His very name has become a part of our lexicon, representing far-flung and wild adventure of the highest degree. He is a cultural touchstone; a symbol so familiar that even those who have not seen his movies have at least a vague idea of what he represents.
With all that he's come to mean, it seems incongruous to realize how small his repertoire actually is: while there are innumerable tie-ins, there are only four actual films in the Indy canon. With Harrison Ford aging and the intellectual property rights tightly in the clutches of Spielberg and Lucas, it seems unlikely that there will be any more. Given the dismal quality of the most recent installment, that is arguably a good thing. Perhaps it is for the best if the franchise is allowed to quietly die rather than to allow George Lucas to continue blundering along and ruining things.
Or perhaps it is time to turn the character over to someone who might know what to do with him. Here's the thing: Spielberg and Lucas have created a character who's bigger than they are. While both are seminal directors who've created many influential franchises, Indy has uniquely captured our society's imagination in a way that few fictional characters ever do. Others enjoying this degree of recognition include Sherlock Holmes and James Bond, both of whom have been featured in many works of art produced by many different people. In terms of their potential for reinterpretation, these characters are so unfettered they make Indy look downright quaint.
Sherlock Holmes has been around for a relatively long time, and as such he has passed out of copyright. No one owns the character, and thus he has taken on a life of complete freedom. Anyone can write a new Holmes story. Anyone with the resources to do so can create a Holmes movie. The Guinness Book of World Records lists him as "the most portrayed movie character," having appeared in over 211 films and played by 75 different actors. Holmes, like Indy, is part of our collective consciousness, but more importantly, the character himself belongs to anyone who wants him. He is free.
James Bond, by comparison, seems like small beans, having been portrayed by six actors in 23 films, but his case is still worth examination. While Bond is still under copyright (meaning his usage is still controlled by various interested parties), his canon of movies is vast and varied. It is, in fact, so inconsistent that fans are obliged to come up with original theories to improve its coherence. As the franchise has been open to new influences, Bond, while not technically free, is free enough to allow extensive reinterpretation. And, yes, some of the Bond films are considered inferior to others and dismissed even by some of his fans. Any large series is going to have a few stinkers.
Which brings me back to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Indy's newest movie. We won't try to sugarcoat this: it's terrible. There was some classic Indy action, yes, but also all kinds of Erich von Daniken silliness, bad CGI, annoying characters, bombproof refrigerators, and that scene with the monkeys. With only four Indy movies, it stands out as a weak link in an otherwise strong series. Some people would also nominate Temple of Doom for this position. That makes an overall success rate of only 50%–not very impressive.
Now here's the thought experiment: what if, instead of restricting Indy to being played by one actor and managed by the same two jokers, he was opened to a wider audience of creators? Imagine if, instead of four movies, there were many, all produced by different people, with little or no oversight from the original creators. Some would be as bad as Kingdom. Some would even be worse than Kingdom, no sense in denying that. Some, however, would be fresh and enjoyable additions to the body of work. And some, dare I say it, might be so novel and daring that they would overshadow the originals.
We will call this "the democratization of Indiana Jones." (People take ideas more seriously if they have pretentious names.) Indy is so ubiquitous that it seems only fitting that the opportunity to write his stories should be extended to others. At the very least he should be partially freed like James Bond. Ideally he would be completely freed like Sherlock Holmes. Indiana Jones is alive in our hearts, corny as that sounds, and it's high time that he was liberated from his dusty tomb. He does not belong in a museum.
Disclaimer: I have not seen Temple of Doom, nor any Bond movies, so opinions on those topics are based on original research. Post any and all complaints to the comments section and I will do my best to address them.
Help prevent fan abuse
June 16th, 2011 | Et CeteraAll publicity is good publicity. – P.T. Barnum
I'm a bit late to the game on this, but I still feel the need to say something, because this is important. The issue is this: fans are being abused. The history is long and familiar: fans create derivative works, and copyright holders force a takedown. Granted, much fan-produced work is of little interest to others, but occasionally fans produce strong, original content that seizes the attention of the rest of the fanbase. These works present the source material in arresting and creative ways, building on the original while not detracting from it. As many have pointed out, these "derivative works" should be protected under the "fair use" exception, and yet copyright holders persist in ordering takedowns of fan-produced works, claiming infringement.
This hurts everyone–including the copyright holder. I will elaborate.
What led me to write about this was the expulsion of SF Debris from YouTube. For those of you unfamiliar with him, Chuck "SF Debris" Sonnenburg is an amateur reviewer of Star Trek episodes (among other things) and has for several years been creating video reviews using his trademark combination of silly jokes and insightful analysis. Prior to the takedown, he had posted reviews of over a hundred episodes of Trek on YouTube, including multi-part reviews of all the films through First Contact. Unfortunately, as Sonnenburg uses clips from the shows to illustrate his points, CBS views him as being no better than a pirate, and effectively forced him to remove his entire archive–the product of years of work–from YouTube.
While Sonnenburg is in the process of transferring to blip.tv, which attempts to protect its users from these kinds of claims, this nonetheless is a setback for him, as he now has to reprocess all these clips before he can bring them online again. This is also unfortunate from the standpoint of his fans, because we no longer have access to most of his archive. And, finally, this is bad for CBS, too. Here is what the studio fails to realize: fans are providing free advertising. I first found Sonnenburg's work while looking for information regarding Voyager's most notorious episode, the infamous "Threshold." (In which Tom violates the laws of physics, turns into a salamander, and has salamander babies with the captain.) Sonnenburg had already posted a three-part review of the stinker at that point, and I was delighted by it. Naturally I began watching more of his reviews, and as I did so I was reminded of the fact that, flawed though it is, I actually kind of like Voyager. Suffice it to say I have since bought three seasons of the show (3, 4, and 6, which my research leads me to believe to have the best good/bad episode ratio). I likely would not have done so if not for these reviews.
When fans produce derivative works, they are not violating a copyright. They are celebrating the source material, and this can only lead to good things for the copyright holder. Fans are a precious, precious commodity, and persecuting them is perhaps the stupidest thing a creator can do. By eliminating sources of discussion within the fan base, they risk destroying the fan base altogether, and the fan base is, of course, where the money comes from. Honestly, who else is going to buy old episodes of Voyager anymore?
I will continue tuning into blip.tv every Saturday to see the new SF Debris reviews. I have faith that they will continue to be funny and insightful even as the Star Trek franchise continues its forty-year nosedive. And if CBS has a change of heart and allows him back onto YouTube, and they make more money thereby… too good for 'em, I say.
about.me Profile
May 10th, 2011 | Et CeteraIt's unusual for me to sign up for these kinds of things, so I thought I might as well note that I've set up an about.me profile. I dunno. It seemed like it might be a good way to improve the search ranking of my website, and it does seem like an interesting way to unify disparate internet accounts, although I have accounts at precious few of the sites they support. (I do have accounts at YouTube and Vimeo, but it seems silly to attach those to the profile since the only thing at them is Barnacle Bert.)
Anyway, the link, if anyone is curious: http://about.me/john.allie
I'll add more nonsense to it later.
The End of an Era
April 1st, 2011 | Changelog, Et CeteraWell, after using the above image as my online avatar for years, I've decided it's finally time to change. It's nothing against you personally, Rustosaurus the Mondrian Fan… I still think you're quite charming, actually. I just don't feel that you really represent me all that well anymore, especially since redesigns to the website have made it more and more distant from your example. So, with a heavy heart and a sense of tradition violated, I now begin the transition to the following:

New studio arrangements
March 20th, 2011 | Artwork, Et CeteraI've finally taken it upon myself to upgrade my workspace in some fashion, and yesterday I assembled and set up my new drafting table. It's bigger than the old one, and has a glass surface instead of cardboard (it originally had a wooden surface, but it was too scratched-up to use). The lamp underneath the table allows it to double as a light box, which is something I rarely use, but it will be nice to have the ability now. I also bit the bullet and ordered some more bristol board, which I will now use for Sunrise as well as Realm. That's a new page of Sunrise you can see on the table. In summation, good improvements all around… hopefully they'll have a positive effect on the work!
I do believe it's Pi Day!
March 14th, 2011 | Comics, Et Cetera, Realm, SunriseThat means three things:
- Realm chapter 1 is now available to be read online.
- The Zarks, which I invented while drawing on a half-hour car trip, are now nine years old.
- The area of a circle is equal to the radius squared times 3.14159265358979323846264 . That is the extent to which I memorized it when I was in my teens. Yes, I know what Toothpaste for Dinner says. I make no apologies for the actions of my teenage self.
Tomorrow a new issue of Sunrise will begin, in honor of the ides of March I guess.
Another word which must die
December 10th, 2010 | Et Cetera, WritingI thought I might forget one. Here it is, better late than never:
friendlily. (adverb) to act in a friendly manner. Just all-around awkward, and one that can really only be fixed by not using it at all.

Tim Floyd, who was hired as UTEP's basketball coach in March, secured his first recruiting coup back in late April – he got a verbal from a kid named Michael Haynes, who had gone from being a good recruit (Xavier, Minnesota, South Florida were in pursuit) to being coveted by the heavyweights (Duke, UCLA, Texas). His AAU teammate, Desmond Lee, also decided to play for Floyd and UTEP. How's Floyd land a stud like Haynes? Well, this could shed some light on his decision – Haynes' AAU coach, Jason Niblett, became a UTEP assistant coach over the holiday weekend. Wonder if Floyd, fresh off the OJ Mayo debacle, is being closely watched by the NCAA. [Martinsville Bulletin, photo via Getty]

Pubs / Bars National
The Plug (Sheffield)
by ljackson24 So I went for a night out in Sheffield last week for the first time, and someone recommended that we go to The Plug. We then heard it was £1 per drink and decided we should definitely go! We somehow got in for free (I think the entry was about £3/£4 otherwise) and we arrived at about 11:30pm. When we got arrived there were ... about 10 people there and I think we were all thinking we would have a few £1 drinks and then make a move. However a few drinks into the night and the place was starting to fill up, by the time we left about 2:00am it was really busy. The actual club had several different rooms, we were in a pretty big room which had a bar along one side and a big dancefloor, as well as other space around it for just standing and chatting. The music was a great mix of everything really, but it was mainly chart music. We walked through some of the other rooms and they were a lot quieter but all seemed quite similar really. The people in the club were mainly students, I was probably one of the oldest in there at 23! This normally bothers me when everyone seems really young but on this occasion it didn't as such cheap drinks, good music, and a fun atmosphere made it such a good night! As I said drinks were £1 and this included things like vodka and mixer which is all I drink anyway so not too sure about the other drinks. The Plug is quite central so it was easy to get to, and overall I had a great night there and would love to go again! Read the complete review |
The George (Hamilton)
by angelboouk *Please note I am reviewing this pub based on our dining experience here - I requested it to be under restaurant but dooyoo have submitted it as pub* *~The George, Hamilton~* 18 Campbell Street Hamilton South Lanarkshire ML3 6AS 01698 424225 The George is a pub/restaurant which ... is a short walk from the main shopping area of Hamilton. The George is a family run establishment. The pub is open until late 7 days a week but food is served 6 days a week until 8pm I believe. Children are welcome until 8pm as long as they are with adults and the pub operates an 'over 25 policy' so ensure you have your ID with you. *~Food and Drink~* The George offers pub grub and also a wide range of drinks including speciality ales, draught beers and also champagne, wine and spirits. Soft drinks are available. Prices range from 35p (for diluting juice for the kids) up to £40.00 (for champagne). The food on offer is typical pub grub and there is a range of affordable starters/sharing platters, main meals, light meals and desserts. *Starters and lightbites include nachos, soup, sandwiches and baked potatoes. £1.95-£3.95 *Main courses include lasagne, steak pie, pasta, steak haggis and fish and chips to name a few. £3.95-£9.95. Vegetarians can choose from veggie burger, macaroni, baked potato, sandwiches or salad. *Desserts include chocolate fudge cake, apple pie, ice cream, sticky toffee pudding or ice cream sundae. £2.95-£3.65. Childrens meals were around the £3.50 mark and options included sausages, chicken gourjons, mince and also macaroni with sides. *~Layout and Facilities~* The George is easy to locate but lacks any sign outside. Inside, the building has retained a lot of original features and is dimly lit during the day. Wooden benches run across the window side of the pub and there are a lot of wooden beams and wooden flooring giving a rustic look. There are tables to accommodate small parties of dinners but the pub isn't very big. The bar appears to be well stocked and during our visit, there were a lot of Halloween decorations up. Radio music played in the background but wasn't intrusive. The ambience was nice for a pub and it was clean and tidy. There are no baby changing facilities but there is a disabled toilet and the pub is disable friendly. The toilets are located at the back of the pub and are quite compact but clean. They could do with being modernised a little and I can imagine they would get busy at times. There is a games machine at the back of the pub. Children are accommodated as there are highchairs and childrens menus available. *~Our Visit~* When out in Hamilton with the kids, we usually go to a little cafe for lunch. Last week, we arrived to find the cafe completely full and we decided to look elsewhere for somewhere reasonably priced to eat. My sister said a pub nearby served delicious steak pie but when we arrived, some gentlemen eating in the bar said the lounge was closed for meals and recommended The George a short walk away. My review will be based around our eating experience here. I had never heard of The George before our visit. As it happens, it is right across from our favourite Greek restaurant, Costas. We checked that children were welcome and went in. We were able to choose from the tables which were free so selected a table in the corner which was already set up for our party of 4. The pub wasn't too busy when we arrived but there was a family sitting nearby. During our lunch there, we noticed a few people coming and going but unlike a lot of pubs, it wasn't heaving or reeking of stale booze. It does appear to be family friendly and have a distinctive, character feel which is quite cosy. We were peckish when we arrived and had a quick glance at the menu after the waitress took our drinks order. The food selection on offer is just right for a pub in my opinion. There is nothing particularly special on offer - just standard (and safe) pub grub. We decided to share a starter of regular nachos. We received a bowl of Doritos (yes really) topped with a decent amount of melted cheese and dips of sour cream and salsa. Whilst I would have expected proper nachos, we did enjoy our starter and found it sufficient to share and nibble on whilst waiting for our main courses. After 20 minutes or so, our main courses arrived and were all well presented indeed. My sister opted for steak pie which was served with chips, carrots and (evil) peas. She really enjoyed her meal and found the pastry to be to her liking ie slightly soggy from the gravy but flaky on top. The meat was of a good quality and wasn't fatty or chewy. The boys received good sized portions from the kids menu. Spud opted for mince, tatties and beans which he enjoyed very much. Boo is a bit more fussy about his food so opted for chicken gourjons and chips. The chicken gourjons were quite large and very tasty indeed. Both boys cleared their plates. I was quite spoiled for choice as many of the main courses on offer are favourites of mine. I forgot my diet for a short while and selected the macaroni cheese. I received a perfectly presented meal. The macaroni was served in a dish and there was a hearty portion which had just the right level of creamy cheese sauce to avoid being too cheesy. The chips were plentiful and very tasty - fluffy inside and nicely crisp on the outside. I received a side portion of salad including lettuce, onion, cucumber and tomato. It was fresh tasting. There is the option to have garlic bread inside of chips. I enjoyed my meal and cleared the plate. Each main meal was enjoyed and was served hot and fresh. We always have a small amount of room for dessert. Not wishing to overdo it, my sister and I decided to share a dessert whilst the boys had a small ice cream each. This wasn't included in with their meal. I find the choice of desserts to be typical of most pubs and restaurants and there is likely to be something for everyone. We opted for sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. It arrived hot and was of a decent portion size. It was moist, sweet and perfect for sharing as one each would have led to toothache! *~Service~* We had no complaints with the service we received at The George whilst dining here. We were seen to quickly, food was served at a good pace and our bill was brought promptly. The waitress was efficient and friendly. She kept up with delivering meals, taking orders and also serving at the bar with complete ease. *~Conclusion~* For one sharer, two main meals, two kids meals, one dessert, two kids ice creams, two diluting juices and two cans of fizzy pop, our bill came to around £30.00 which I feel is a fair price to pay. We paid by cash but they accept card payments. We left a tip as we were satisfied with the quality of the food. The George is a lovely pub to grab a bite to eat in during the day. I'm not really a pub person as I don't drink often but wouldn't mind a drink in here in the evening before going for dinner or to the cinema nearby. It doesn't seem to be as popular as the three pubs around the corner including Hemmingways but it does have charm, appeal and I'm sure it is classed as a local pub to many as it offers a relaxing atmopshere. We will happily dine here again. I can recommend The George but don't be looking for outstanding food. Thanks for reading :) Read the complete review |
The Plough (Sleapshyde)
by dee778 The Plough is an attractive small pub in a very isolated position near St Albans. White painted walls with a thatched roof give it a chocolate box appeal and make it a great destination for anybody out on a country walk. The pub dates from the 16th century and is well decorated and cosy, with a large inglenook fireplace and real fires in ... winter. In summer there is a large patio which looks out onto the fields so that you can really enjoy the peaceful location. Very much off the beaten track, the Plough can be found at the end of a dead end road in the very small hamlet of Sleapshyde near St Albans. I have never driven to the Plough but have passed it many times on walks. For me, this is a pub which is reached by walking across fields, following narrow paths that lead straight to the front door. Location-wise the Plough is ideal for walkers is it about 5 minutes walk across the fields from the Alban Way; a disused railway line that runs through lovely countryside from St Albans to Hatfield and which is a popular walk, cycle or run for locals at all times of year. Alternatively you can drive there by taking a narrow road just off the A414. Although I have stopped for a drink in the garden many times, I had never eaten there and decided to make it the focus of a Sunday walk. I should have been suspicious at the website, which proudly and rather strangely proclaims that you can find: "Real Ale, Real Food and Real People" at The Plough. More important than real people to me is Real Dogs - and the website also told me to bring the dog - "dogs are always welcome", so I set off with my two boys and dog for a Sunday lunch. ~~The Welcome~~ Bounding into the main bar, we were brought up short by the look of horror on the landlord's face. "No Dogs in here", he barked. "But the website says that you are dog friendly", we said. Magically the landlady appeared... "Oh yes, we love dogs - we just don't allow them in the pub". Eventually we persuaded them to let us sit in the small bar where fewer people were eating. Pushing the dog firmly under the table and keeping our feet on him for security, we ordered our meal - ignoring the indignant stares of the non-dog loving locals. The pub is divided into a dining room area and a public bar. Both are cosy and rather dim, with dark wood tables, traditionally upholstered seats, and open fireplaces. The landlord and his wife were serving in the dining room area and a rather grumpy man was serving in the public bar. The question, "What type of cider do you have" was answered shortly with "what you see". A bottle of Appletiser was slammed down on the bar with no glass and no offer of ice. ~~The Food~~ The menu has a good range of traditional pub food such as gammon steak, cod and chips, or lasagne - all for under £10. There is a small range of starters, all for £5 including soup, chicken skewers and breaded mushrooms. My son ordered the Sunday roast which turned out to be very disappointing. The beef was a little bit tough and gristly, and it came with a lump of very tasteless and watery swede. The roast potatoes were acceptable, as were the carrots, but overall we felt that it was poor value for £8.95 My older son ordered the pub's signature dish; Steak and Ale pie for £8.95. This was a big portion of pie which came with a large portion of chips. He found it tasty but the pastry was heavy and the steak rather tough. I chose the safe option of scampi and chips, which was very average for £7.95 and came with peas. The chips were a little dry, but otherwise this was a good pub meal. For pudding all three of us had the same dish: Warm Sweet Waffle with ice cream & toffee sauce for £3.95. This was the best part of the whole meal - lovely, warm, sweet and gorgeous, it was thoroughly enjoyed. Other deserts were very traditional dishes such as apple pie and spotted dick. A specials board offered a variety of dishes, all of which looked very similar to the dishes already on the daily menu. The service was rather unfriendly. Initially we sat on a very small table, and when a larger one became free next to us we asked the waitress if we could move over. She seemed horrified by the suggestion and told us to ask the bartender. He too seemed aghast and muttered angrily to himself before saying that he supposed this was OK. All the waiting staff seemed strangely cowed and unhappy, casting furtive looks around them and serving us with a very anxious look on their faces. I have to add that at this stage my (very small and cute) dog was asleep under the bench, so I cannot put this down to dog anxiety. Food is served every lunchtime, and on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Unusually, the pub recommends ordering a takeaway on the nights that it does not serve food, saying that they are happy to accept deliveries and provide plates as long as you still drink in the pub. This is a great idea and one that I haven't seen before. ~~Drink~~ The Plough is a real ale pub, serving two of my favourite real ales - Adnams bitter and Timothy Taylor Landlord pale ale. They are not so strong on ciders and I was disappointed not to find Aspall cider served - but there is a good variety of wines. I opted for a lager on this occasion and added a half of Becks Vier to the tab that was set up for us behind the bar. ~~The Garden , the Toilets and Accessibility ~~ There is quiet and safe seating both at the front and back of the pub, so you can catch the sun all through the day. A covered smoking area is available. The pub is very accessible for those with mobility issues - all on one level, including the toilets, it is a short even walk from the car park to either the front or back doors. The Ladies is down a short corridor at the front of the pub and was very clean and fresh - nicely cared for. The Gents was opposite but I could not check this out. ~~Conclusion~~ Although my first meal at the Plough was a mixed experience, it was pleasant enough for me to give it a second try. The location makes it a perfect stop on a country walk and it was cosy and well decorated inside and out. I am prepared to give the pub the benefit of the doubt and assume that I caught them on a bad day. Next time I will leave the dog at home or make sure that it is warm enough to sit in the garden - and hopefully I will find the staff in a better mood.

CLEARFIELD -- The city is using grant funds to upgrade the boiler at the municipal building.
Clearfield received funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, allowing the city to do efficiency upgrades, including the boiler project at the city building.
The firm of Van Boerum & Frank Associates was hired to design the energy-efficient upgrades for the existing boiler. With that in place, the city obtained bids for the work, and the council awarded the bid to MHI Service of Salt Lake City.
The project will cost $30,617.

You never would've guessed it, but right in the middle of Lolo, MT, there's a horse ranch. Just a 15 minute drive from Missoula, Dunrovin Ranch offers lodging and trail rides to those with an appetite for seeing the landscape the old school way; and as far as appetites for horseback riding go, our group of bigs and littles were ravenous.
Last Saturday on November 9, twenty of us from Missoula Outdoor Explorers spent half a day with the folks at Dunrovin. Some matches had gone horseback riding before, but none had had the complete experience they were about to get. After brief introductions and a thorough safety talk, the group split up. While three matches mounted up and went on the first trail ride, the rest of us got introduced to the rest of the horses and then enjoyed one of the best meals of all time; hotdogs roasted over a campfire.
After lunch, the matches that weren't riding horses returned to the stable area to groom, lead, and just give some love to the horses. Dunrovin has horses of all shapes and sizes, from full size steeds to dwarf-ponies. There was something for everyone to enjoy! It wasn't long before the phrase, "He's my favorite!" could be heard throughout the yard. Eventually the first group returned and the second mounted up for their trail ride. The rotation continued throughout the afternoon, allowing everyone to get experience in what goes on at a ranch.
Of course, what would a visit to a ranch be without some form of character building? In other words, we grabbed some rakes and scooped horse manure. Not everyone was enthusiastic about this job initially, but by the end we were all racing to see who would be the super-pooper-scooper of the day! Following this especially popular activity, we went to the nearby pasture to play some field games. In case you were wondering, Sharks and Minnows is still a hit, regardless of age.
With the return of the third riding group, we snapped a quick group photo and then piled back into our two passenger vans. As we waved goodbye and took our leave of our friends at Dunrovin, we all were thinking the same thing. I want a horse!!!
A big thanks to Dunrovin Ranch for making this horseback riding adventure possible, and to all our partners at the Carhart Center and Big Brothers Big Sisters in Missoula. Be sure to check out Dunrovin's site at http://www.dunrovinranchmontana.com/, and our Facebook page for more photos. As always, keep exploring!!

Allozyme diversity among local populations of the pacific mussel Mytilus trossulus (Bivalvia: Mytilidae) from polluted areas of Peter the Great Bay (Sea of Japan)
Russian Journal of Marine Biology (Impact Factor: 0.39). 04/2012; 34(1):45-50. DOI:10.1134/S1063074008010069

ABSTRACT: The separate and interactive pollution effects of cadmium and mercury on the electrophoretically detected allozyme frequencies of eight gene loci were tested in the marine gastropod Cerithium scabridum. Our results indicate differential survivorship of allozyme genotypes specific for each type of pollutants and for their interaction. These results reflect the adaptive nature of at least some of the allozymic genotypes in this marine gastropod and seem inconsistent with the neutral theory of allozyme polymorphisms. Furthermore, these findings suggest that the interactive pollution of cadmium and mercury acts as a specific pollutant. Therfore, differential tolerance to pollution can be used as detector of heavy metal pollution in the sea also when more than one pollutant is involved.Marine Pollution Bulletin. 01/1986; - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Natural populations in polluted areas are possibly subjected to selective pressures for an increased resistance to toxicants. This can result in the evolution of resistance, which may have important implications for decisions regarding safe ambient toxicant levels. By reviewing the evolution of resistance to heavy metals in aquatic organisms, we aimed to determine if all populations negatively affected by toxicants do adapt to them. If the published literature accurately represents the situation in polluted areas (i.e. negative results having an equal chance of being published), it can be concluded that most, but not all, populations in polluted areas do have an increased resistance. But it can usually not be determined if such an increased resistance has a genetic basis. There is less evidence for the evolution of resistance in metazoans (especially fish) than in micro-organisms. Additional information strongly indicates that many populations fail to survive in polluted environments. It thus seems dangerous to relax water quality criteria on the assumption that all populations in polluted environments will evolve an increased resistance. But the fact that the evolution of resistance to environmental pollutants does seem to occur in some populations in polluted environments warrants taking that possibility into consideration when evaluating the results of bioassays and monitoring programs.Environmental Pollution 02/1987; 45(3):173-205. · 3.73 Impact Factor -
Article: The cost of enzyme synthesis in the genetics of energy balance and physiological performance
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The study of metabolism has traditionally focused upon factors that influence metabolic rate, at levels of both the metabolic pathway and the whole organism. This paper focuses on the cost, and thereby the efficiency, of metabolic processes. The genotype-dependent cost of enzyme turnover is proposed as a biochemical genetic mechanism for relating genetic variation at single genes to phenotypic variation in quantitative traits of energy metabolism. Decreased costs of maintenance metabolism can accompany artificial selection for increased production (e.g. growth, reproduction, etc.) and lower maintenance is correlated with multiple locus heterozygosity in outbred populations. In both cases, high production has been associated with lower rates of protein turnover. Several factors influence the ATP-equivalent cost of enzyme turnover. These factors are used to calculate the cost of turnover for a single enzyme. This cost can conservatively constitute up to several percent of the total daily mass-specific energy demands of maintenance metabolism. Genetic variants of an enzyme can differ in the cost of turnover. These differences can constitute the basis for metabolic changes associated with artificial selection for production and the metabolic differences that are associated with individual levels of heterozygosity. The metabolic and evolutionary significance of genotype-dependent turnover costs is a function of individual energy balance. The strength of selection against increases in cost will be an inverse function of individual energy balance and is therefore influenced by both environmental and genetic factors.Biological Journal of the Linnean Society 01/2008; 44(3):231 - 247. · 2.41 Impact Factor

For someone who was never meant for this world, I must confess I'm suddenly having a hard time leaving it. Of course, they say every atom in our bodies was once part of a star. Maybe I'm not leaving… maybe I'm going home. —Vincent
"Today humanity awaits a Message; men gaze at the silent, shining stars and listen. Earth sighs with weariness. Salvation must come from Space."—W. Raymond Drake, from Spacemen in the Ancient East (1968)
"Much of what exists we do not see, much of what we see does not exist. Astronomers cannot see the void into which the galaxies allegedly recede, the physicists cannot see inside the atom; the light we see from countless stars was emitted millions of years ago, many may have long since exploded; now—and what is Now?—our senses are stimulated by radiations from them, our brain computes a pattern based on its memory-bank and frames a reality. Esoterically all we ever see is ourselves, a secret most profound."—W. Raymond Drake, from Spacemen in the Ancient East (1968)
"I was 24 when I joined NACA—later NASA—and was given very challenging work both as a pilot and as an engineer in flight research. I was confident that men of that age could do the job. Additionally, this new Space Age required people who understood digital computers, and most of the people in that category were in their 20s."—Neil Armstrong, from Popular Mechanics "No Margin for Error: The Untold Story of Apollo 11" (June 2009 Issue).

THR report that Guillermo del Toro and co-writer Chuck Hogan will write and produce an adaptation of their vampire book trilogy The Strain for FX, with Lost show-runner Carlton Cuse on board as executive producer.
The novels revolve around a vampire virus that infects New York, and the Doctor who investigates. The story treats these Vampires more as parasitic creatures than the brooding monsters of myth, and drops all of the romanticism that tends to be associated with them. It's an interesting take and might well make for a great tv show.
The first book, The Strain, was published in 2009, and was followed by 2010's The Fall and the final installment, 2011's The Night Eternal. The Strain was also adapted into a comic series by writer David Lapham and artist Mike Huddleston for Dark Horse. The 8th issue of which is out now.

A Biography of the Human Heart
