Nelson Mandela has died, but the power of his spirit will endure forever.
Mandela was a key leader in the liberation of South Africa, and his struggle included 27 years in prison. Eventually elected President, the peaceful yet powerful way that Nelson Mandela freed South Africa from apartheid continues to inspire those who fight for freedom everywhere.
Mr. Mandela embodied the power of the human spirit, and was living proof that the world can be transformed. The entire world owes Nelson Mandela a great debt that can be redeemed as we continue his work of peace, justice, and liberation.

NY Train Wreck Could Be Case Of Highway Hypnosis
AP Photo/Craig Ruttle
NEW YORK (AP) -- It's sometimes called highway hypnosis or white-line fever, and it's familiar to anyone who has driven long distances along a monotonous route.
Drivers are lulled into a semi-trance state and reach their destination with little or no memory of parts of the trip. But what if it happened to an engineer at the controls of a speeding passenger train?
A man driving a Metro-North Railroad commuter train that went off the rails Sunday in New York, killing four passengers, experienced a momentary loss of awareness as he zoomed down the tracks, according to his lawyer and union representative, who called the episode a "nod," a "daze" or highway hypnosis.
Their accounts raised questions about just how widespread the problem is in the transportation industry and what can be done to combat it.
At the time of the crash, the train was going 82 mph into a sharp turn where the speed limit drops to 30 mph. That's when the engineer says he snapped out of it and hit the brakes, but it was too late. The train hurtled off the tracks, leaving a chain of twisted cars just inches from a river in the Bronx.
While the term highway hypnosis has been around for decades, there's no technical definition of it and scant specific medical study of it, although multiple studies have found that long driving times on straight roads can cause people to lose focus.
Some experts equate highway hypnosis with a sort of autopilot state - performing a task, usually competently, without awareness of it. Sleep experts say the daze could really be a doze, especially if a driver has undiagnosed sleep problems.
Whatever it is, nearly every bus or train driver has experienced the feeling of being momentarily unaware while driving long hours, said Larry Hanley, president of the Amalgamated Transit Union.
Hanley, who spent eight years driving a bus in New York, recalled spending a week on the midnight-to-8 a.m. shift and sometimes stopping to pick up passengers who weren't there.
"You find yourself stopping, and you open the doors, and all you see is a mailbox," he said, adding that fatigue and work schedule changes play a role.
The National Transportation Safety Board, which has yet to determine the cause of the crash, concluded talking with the engineer Tuesday. Investigators continued interviewing the train's other crew members. Investigators have said the engineer, William Rockefeller, had enough time off for a full night's rest before the crash, but they were looking at his activities in the previous days.
Highway hypnosis doesn't show up often in medical literature, but numerous researchers have looked at the effect that monotonous driving can have on alertness and reaction time.
In one early paper on the phenomenon, published in 1962, retired Rutgers University psychologist Griffith Wynne Williams wrote that the modern superhighway's smooth, uninterrupted stretches of concrete could put people in a daze.
"Driving under these conditions makes little demand on the driver's orientation to reality," he wrote. "The distracting stimuli are few."
It's the "Where did those 10 miles go?" sensation of realizing you've been driving apparently without paying attention to the road or yourself, said Stephen J. Morse, a professor of law and psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania.
Many sleep experts see highway hypnosis as micro-sleep, a phenomenon often attributed to fatigue or sleep deprivation.
Most people don't even realize when they've been micro-sleeping - for example, "resting their eyes" for a few seconds, said Dr. James Maas, a sleep expert and retired Cornell University psychology professor.
"Many of those times you were asleep. You're just not going to remember it," he said.
Transportation safety advocates also have long been concerned about fatigue in all modes of transportation.
In 2008, the operator of a transit train was killed after she fell into a micro-sleep and collided with another train in Newton, Mass. Fatigue also was a factor when two trains collided in Red Oak, Iowa, in 2011, killing two crew members.
A survey of transportation workers last year by the National Sleep Foundation found 26 percent of train operators said sleepiness affected their job performance at least once a week, compared with only 17 percent of non-transportation workers. About 18 percent of train operators reported having a "near miss" at work because of fatigue, and 44 percent of train operators said their work schedule did not allow enough time for sleep.
Rockefeller's schedule, which had recently switched from the afternoon shift to the day shift, could be a cause for concern about fatigue, said Patrick Sherry, executive director of the National Center for Intermodal Transportation at the University of Denver, which studies national transportation issues.
"Did he make an appropriate transition from his previous shift to this new shift?" Sherry said.
How long that transition takes is highly individual - think jet lag, which levels some people while others adjust easily, said Dr. Clete Kushida, a neurologist and sleep specialist at Stanford University Medical Center.
Federal investigators would not comment on Rockefeller's level of alertness. The NTSB had found no problems with the brakes or rail signals. Alcohol tests on crew members were negative, and investigators are awaiting the results of drug tests.
The NTSB has issued more than 200 recommendations addressing fatigue, including scheduling problems that disrupt sleep patterns, Chairman Deborah Hersman said Wednesday in a telephone interview.
Hersman said positive train control technology, which can slow or stop a train that's speeding or otherwise not being operated correctly, might have forestalled the derailment. Railroads are facing a congressional deadline to install such systems by December 2015.
"This is the type of accident that positive train control is designed to prevent," Hersman said.
As for how to avoid micro-sleeping, a 10- to 20-minute nap or a cup of coffee can help in a pinch, suggested Kushida.
But experts agree there's no substitute for getting good sleep.
Truck driver Alex Gordon agrees. He drives for no more than 10 hours at a time and makes sure to get enough sleep, and he says he's never experienced highway hypnosis.
"I drive 10 hours, sleep 11," the Miami-based Gordon said Wednesday during a break at a truck stop in Kearny, N.J. "You just can't" put people in danger, he said.
In case of an engineer becoming incapacitated, the train's front car was equipped with a dead man's pedal, which must be depressed or the train will automatically slow down.
Trains also can have alarms, sometimes called alerters, which sound if the operators' controls haven't been moved within a certain timeframe. If an engineer does not respond, often by pressing a button, brakes automatically operate. But the train that derailed didn't have such a system, a Metro-North spokeswoman said.
Rockefeller, 46, has worked for the railroad for 15 years and has been an engineer for 10.
Crews are rebuilding the damaged track where Rockefeller's train crashed. One of three tracks on the affected line reopened Wednesday, and commuters said they were grateful service was restored fairly quickly.
"We don't get to complain," said Elite Rubin, who does marketing for an accounting firm. "We weren't on that train where people died."

Can You Be Awake And Asleep At The Same Time?

"I was in a daze. I don't know what I was thinking about and the next thing I know I was hitting the brakes."
Those were William Rockefeller's words to a law enforcement source, the New York Daily News reports, as investigators examine the moments leading up to the Metro North train derailment in the Bronx on Sunday that killed four and injured 75.
Unlike previously reported, Rockefeller seems to have been well-rested, officials say. "There's every indication that he would have had time to get full restorative sleep," Earl Weener of the National Transportation Safety Board told the Daily News.
While zoned out, it's been suggested that Rockefeller may have slipped into what's known as microsleep, when you nod off for just a few seconds, often without even knowing you're doing so. People in microsleep might even still have their eyes open, or still carry out tasks "as if on a kind of auto-pilot," ABC News reported.

Empowering Youth to Take Action that Protects and Restores our Ocean Planet
Read More
EarthEcho International is a nonprofit 501c3 organization founded in 2000 by siblings Philippe and Alexandra Cousteau in honor of their father Philippe Cousteau Sr., famous son of the legendary explorer Jacques Yves Cousteau. EarthEcho International's mission is to empower youth to take action that restores and protects our water planet.
EarthEcho International's programs are dedicated to the legacy of Philippe Cousteau Sr.; a legacy of devotion to the conservation and restoration of the oceans and one that can be shared by all people. Sadly, the last 50 years has seen the greatest amount of destruction of our Oceans, bringing us to a current state of crisis. However, we believe that it is the next 50 years in which we can embrace the new promise of a just, healthy, and abundant water planet. In order to achieve this, a whole new generation must take action to restore and protect our water planet.
Education combined with service-learning offers a tremendous opportunity to empower such a generation, but there is very little ocean education and service-learning available today on a national scale. EarthEcho International's programs works to fill these voids in ways that unite the efforts of other prominent organizations to identify and engage the most promising leaders of tomorrow in the struggle for ocean health today.

Great stay! Close to shopping, Worlds of Fun. The pool was great for kids. Comfortable rooms...lovely beds!!!!Comentario real de un huésped de Hoteles.com
"Find another place to stay"
Dirty carpet, little spiders coming out of the sink and tub drains. I would guess this particular room is rarely booked...so no one checks to make sure it's clean before the next guests arrive.

Close enough to Kansas City to allow you to visit all the museums and attractions, but far enough out to allow for a wonderful room at a super rate. The indoor pool was a definite plus.

Only stayed one night, I just needed a place to sleep after a concert in Kansas City. Easy access to the Sprint Center less than 20 minutes away.

We found that it took a really long time to get through the heavy traffic in the intersection leading to the hotel. It took even longer when going to a restaurant at dinner time.

"Never again!"
We will never stay at this hotel again. We stayed there last week and it was like pulling teeth to get decent service. I stood at the desk for what seemed like forever but in reality it was 5 minutes while a gal at the desk talked on the phone without even acknowledging me. The bathroom was dirty when we got there as well as the pool. The towels in […] the pool are about the right size for a 3 year old..just fyi. The most disturbing about our stay is the smell of mildew or wet towels that layed around for a few days. It was horrible. When we went to the desk, no one was even there. Come to find the man was in front on one of his many smoke breaks that we saw him outside a couple more times while there was no one at the desk. Leer másComentario real de un huésped de Hoteles.com
We stayed two nights. Once on our way to Illinois and once on the way back. The first night was okay - nothing extra. We were tired and ready to fall asleep as soon as we got there. We noted how awful the lobby smelled from the chlorine in the pool, which sits just to the back of the lobby. But since we were not swimming, and didn't plan on staying […] in the lobby, we excused it. The breakfast area was so small, we couldn't find anywhere to sit. Not that they were crowded, but there just wasn't any space. We had a chemical smell coming from our air condition all night long. There were no extra rooms, and my husband ended up sleeping in the car because the only way to get the smell to stop was to turn off the air conditioner, and then it was too hot. On our check out I told the desk they needed to check out the room before they gave it to any one else. Was not satisfied at all. The desk clerk called her manager, and she said for me to call her and they could comp me a night there some other time. I am from Texas, and don't plan on being at this area again. So what good will that do. I felt like she should have taken my name and at least written me a letter or something in order to keep a good relationship. I am not a griper, but this time I was very upset and frustrated. The rest of our trip was wonderful. This one hotel was the only negative part of our trip.

The pool was really gross. It had debris on the bottom of the floor and it was cold. Staff at the front desk could use a brush up on their manners.Comentario real de un huésped de Hoteles.com
Overall a nice hotel for the price. Walls and floors are thin so, with the indoor pool attracting families with kids, expect a lot of running & jumping until about 10 or 11p. Only real gripe is the carpet, needs a good steam clean. Wireless is good, beds are comfortable, rooms are big and staff is very pleasant.Comentario real de un huésped de Hoteles.com
"Nice hotel except..."
Very nice, clean, conveniently located hotel. The hot tub/jaccuzi had been taken out and we were told it would not be replaced.

Front desk lady frazzled, told us her life story, a little annoying but very nice. Checked us into the room that was not clean had to start over.

We stayed there for one night with our family of 7. The 2 rooms that we stayed in were very clean and spacious. The hotel itself was very clean. Breakfast was very nice and had a lot of choices. The hotel is located in a big shopping area with a ton of restaurants around.

"Great Location!"
We stayed for 2 nites while on our way home from Colorado. It's located NE of downtown, but not a bad drive into the city and was the perfect location the morning we headed back to IL. The area around the hotel was great! Lots of shopping and many choices of restaurants! We even took in a movie that was just a mile away. Hotel was very busy because […] of a Little League thing that was going on. We were lucky we were at the end of the hallway on the top floor. Otherwise, I think it may have been a little noisy. But we were fine! Our room was very nice and spacious. We didn't use the pool or exercising areas, but they looked nice. Breakfast was hectic, but it was a pretty nice spread.

Disgusting! There is nothing good that I can comment on for this hotel. Mold, dirty, humid and terrible service. We could barely shower as the pipe was broken and most of the water poured into the wall. Told the staff about this but they chose to ignore it. Filthy is an understatement. GROSS.

Like the legendary Dominator, enthusiast-grade Vengeance DRAM is designed for stability, stringently factory-tested, and backed by our limited lifetime warranty. And, we know that great looks are as important as great performance. This is why Vengeance modules come in a variety of colors to match your components and let you build your system just the way you want it.
Vengeance memory is designed specifically for the latest CPUs. Vengeance modules are available in 1.65, 1.5V, and 1.35V configurations for maximum compatibility with all Intel® Core™ i3, i5 and i7 processors, as well as the 2nd generation Intel Core processor family. With dual channel, triple channel, and quad channel kits, there's a Vengeance configuration that's perfect for your motherboard.
Vengeance memory supports the Intel XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) standard, and each module is individually factory-programmed with an XMP profile indicating supported timing, frequency and voltages. Just enable XMP on your compatible motherboard and you'll automatically get optimized memory overclocking without having to deal with multiple BIOS settings. Of course, if you're an experienced overclocker — or an aspiring one — you can adjust the settings to push for even higher performance.
The performance benefits of installing 32GB of Vengeance or Dominator memory and setting up a 16GB RAM Disk. For full test results, see our blog post at corsair.com/ramdisk.
The 900D "Bucket List" build by Corsair forum member "managerman" is the first time I have seen a computer build on someone's bucket list. I suppose a monster water cooled rig with custom acrylic tubing is as good as any for a bucket list item.

Building the world's fastest production memory is no easy feat, you need the right combination of hardware and memory ICs. To build just one Vengeance Extreme DRAM module requires screening through over 1000 memory ICs. Check out the video below for more info on how the modules are made.
Building a quality gaming rig doesn't take thousands of dollars if you choose your components carefully. With this in mind I set out to build a gaming rig that could handle any of today's games including Crysis 3 for under $1000. I priced the entire build out on Newegg and came in at $937.92 before tax and shipping. Let's start the build and take a look at the components I chose.
Building a PC today is more than just about performance, aesthetics play a large role as well. Corsair Dominator Platinum memory goes well with any of today's motherboards and our Vengeance memory offers a variety of colors. To give you an idea how your board will look with our Dominator Platinum or Vengeance memory we photographed seven popular motherboards. Here is a list of current motherboards that have photos. Click on the motherboard name to see all of the photos as well as all of the compatible memory. We will continue to add new motherboards so be sure to check our blog or follow us onFacebook.
With the Computex show right around the corner it was time to build some systems to show off some of our newly announced and released products. Among those products is our Vengeance Series C70 gaming case which comes in three colors (Military Green, Arctic White, and Gunmetal Black), I will be using the Military Green version and hopefully this build log will give you a better look at the features and design of the C70. Let's start with the list of hardware I'll be using.

The rules of the Texas Senate worked in Senator Steve Ogden's favor as the budget he helped draft won approval in a 19-12 vote Wednesday in Austin.
Republican Senators used a rule that a simple majority can pass a House Bill on certain days. Wednesday was a "House Day" in the senate and the bill passed down party lines.
The Senate budget is about $176.5 billion for the next two years, clearing the path for negotiations with the House to begin.
The plan makes about $11 billion in cuts, compared to the
current budget. But the cuts are much less severe than those in the
bare-bones House version.
Public schools and Medicaid providers, including nursing homes,
would take the brunt of the cuts.
Now that the Senate has passed the budget, negotiations will begin with the state house to finalize a budget where both houses agree.
Wednesday afternoon Governor Rick Perry issued a statement congratulating Ogden and State Senators:
"I applaud Chairman Ogden, Lt. Gov. Dewhurst and the Texas Senate for passing their version of the state budget.
The Senate, House and Governor's Office will now begin working to resolve budget differences during the conference committee process, and pass a balanced two-year state budget we can all be proud of.
I look forward to signing a fiscally responsible, no new taxes state budget in the next few weeks that funds Texas schools, border security and health care priorities, while protecting Texas job creation and preserving the remaining balance in the state's Rainy Day Fund for future emergencies." -Governor Rick Perry

Zile is Lossy Emacs
Zile is a small, fast, and powerful Emacs clone. It is useful for small footprint installations (e.g. on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions. Festures include:
- Small. It is very useful for small footprint installations (like on floppy disk) or quick editing sessions. A typical binary is about 100Kb.
- 8-bit clean. Zile can operate with binary files.
- Looks like Emacs. Most Zile key sequences and function names are identical to Emacs ones.
- Multi buffer editing with multi level undo. The number of files and undo operations that Zile can handle is limited only by memory.
- Multi window. Zile can display multiple windows on the screen.
- Killing, yanking and registers. The standard killing, yanking and register features of Emacs are available under Zile.
- Minibuffer completion. Zile can complete commands and filenames in the minibuffer.
- Auto fill (word wrap). Zile automatically breaks the lines when they become too wide (if the Auto Fill Mode is enabled).

The Washington Nationals baseball team used Twitter to announce that they'll add another president to their famed President's race starting in the 2013 season.
In Washington, D.C., the Nationals mid-inning race is a big deal. Since the team moved to Washington in 2006, caricatures of four presidents -- Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington and Theodore Roosevelt -- raced around the field to the amusement of the crowd.
Last year, when Teddy Roosevelt's long-running losing streak was broken, it came with the help of Sen. John McCain and a well-organized campaign to "Let Teddy Win."
So the fact that another president will grace the green grass of Nationals Park in April had politicos and baseball fans buzzing. Everyone wanted to know: "Who is it going to be?"
The answer to that question will remain a secret until Saturday, when the Nationals make the announcement at an event to honor the team.
In the meantime, we reached out to Richard Norton Smith, a presidential historian and someone who has worked at five presidential libraries, to give us the pros and cons of each possible president.
Andrew Jackson
Pro -- "He is the only president that has an age named after him. The Age of Jackson."
Con -- "I am not sure the Cleveland Indians or the Atlanta Braves would be eager to play any team with Andrew Jackson as a mascot."
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Pro -- "If there was room on Mt. Rushmore for a 5th face, he would be it. And of course the first four presidents that the Nationals chose are all on Mt. Rushmore. He is the most logical to be added to the quartet. And, I suppose, as someone who has served longer than anyone else, he should be useful for extra innings."
Con -- "He was a football cheerleader, which would be a con in baseball."
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Pro -- "Ike actually played the game and I think if he had his druthers, he would have probably been a baseball star before he would have been a general or a president. He actually has experience."
Con -- "I am not sure the hidden hand would be effective in left field catches."
John F. Kennedy
Pro -- "He would lend glamour to the lineup. That is for sure."
Con -- "There might be some questions about his father fixing the game."
Richard Nixon
Pro -- "Nixon wanted to be a sports writer. Nixon came alive talking sports. I know that sounds odd, but if you want the real Nixon, get him talking baseball. At one point, he was actually considered for baseball commissioner and he was a man who probably could have been baseball commissioner but settled for president."
Con -- "Where do we begin? Didn't he sell out baseball for ping pong in China?"
Ronald Reagan
Pro -- "He called games as a radio announcer and he played Grover Cleveland Alexander in the movies. On radio and in the movies, he lived the game."
Con -- "He would probably take excessive interest in Nicaraguan prospects."
Gerald Ford
Pro -- "He excelled as late game replacement."
Con -- "But had a tendency to run into and bean spectators."
Bill Clinton
Pro -- "Incredible appetite for game."
Con -- "Incredible appetite for game."
Barack Obama
Pro -- "Coolest player on the field."
Con -- "Doesn't always play well with others."
If Smith had his way, he says Woodrow Wilson would be the president who would most like to be portrayed at Nationals Park.
"The person who deserves it is because he loved the game, he played the game and if you go to his house you would see a baseball signed by King George X, is Woodrow Wilson," Smith said. "Wilson loved baseball and it was big part of his life."
As for who the professor thinks it will be: Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
"The easiest choice is FDR," he said. "If you are extending what you have already done, FDR is the obvious choice."
On a positive note though, he says, "At least they won't choose James Buchanan."

Pretty Is As Pretty Does
17 comments:
I understand your mounting trepidation. I never gave it a second thought until I got thrown from a green horse before I even had my leg over. After that I felt like *every* horse I got on was going to take off on me. Rationally I know it's silly but it didn't change the fact of nervous tension every time I was getting on. It's gotten better over the years but a horse moving off during mounting is still one of my least favorite behaviors. Luckily Coro is a real gentleman about it. What a lovely, patient approach you are taking with Dusty.
ReplyDeleteI like your technique and clearly Dusty does, too. She is a pretty girl.
Your fear is not unfounded. Mounting and dismounting are the most dangerous parts of therapeutic lessons. I have held my breath many a time as a very compromised rider teetered between on and off the horse during the mounting or dismounting process.I'm glad to hear it's working so well, for both of you ;)! It's funny how the act of calming the horse can calm the rider, too.
Everyone has a fear of something. It's how you react to your fear that counts, not the fear itself. You've got the right idea and you'll have this fixed in no time!Arlene, I did a similar thing to Keil Bay and turned his rock-solid mounting routine into one where he, mirroring my own antsiness, would take steps forward, back, etc. while I fidgeted on the top of the block.
It took me some time to sort it back out and the main thing was to address my own body/thoughts first. If I went out and just got on w/o thinking he stood as still as a statue!
This all happened after I fell several years ago (down the stairs, not off a horse, even) and injured my back. My caution about my body and falls went sky-high and transferred to mounting.
Anyway, glad you and Dusty are working through this. It sounds like you are almost to that place where it can become a non-issue!There's wisdom at the root of most of our fears--we all have them about something. Mine is having a horse fall backwards on me. It's never even closely happened to me before, but I've seen it and can't get it out of my mind. You're doing the absolute best thing to get over this obstacle with both you and Dusty--building up confidence with calm repetition. I'm always amazed at how well and how fast it works, too. I had to laught about Erik's "best gait." ;) hilarious!
ReplyDeleteGood girl Dusty! I just knew when I first saw your post title that this was going to be about Dusty. She is becoming a real lady at the mounting block. I use a mounting block all the time (can't get on Misty without something to stand on). It is always a precarious moment when that second foot leaves the mounting block.
ReplyDelete" There's no sense telling someone not to be fearful if they've got it in their head that something could go wrong. "
This is so true. Especially with horses. There always seems to be a hot spot that we are trying to work through.
The last time my Windy was at a trainer, I asked her to work with her on standing while mounting and she did. That one item was worth the entire 30 days training fees. I can scootch (sp) her up to anything from the mounting block to the running board of the trailer and she STANDS for me to mount.
Been enjoying the pictures, including the foxesWe all have our things. One time something spooked Harley and he jumped sideways when I was mounting or dismounting--I can't quite remember now--and ever since then, I'm a little nervous about that part. I better remind Kurt that I want the emergency release stirrups for my birthday. Then I'll feel better. Because you're right; you can't just TELL someone not to be scared.

Applied Meteorlogy
In 1960, the first meteorological
satellite, Tiros (the predecessor of NOAA), was launched. Tiros
was the first in a whole series of satellites which signified
a major advance in weather forecasting and in research on weather
systems such as tropical storms.
Today, seven geostationary meteorological satellites working together provide almost continuous images of the entire world. They are supported by a number of polar satellites, each of which supply less frequent but more detailed (higher resolution) images of a specific area. Along with meteorological applications, the data from meteorological satellites are used in scores of other derivative areas: for climatological research (such as climate change), oceanographic applications (measuring surface temperatures in connection with El Niño, ice monitoring, etc.) and applications on land (NOAA is especially well-suited for studying vegetation, forest fires, etc.). |

I am very newb at this. My first batch started fermenting 8 days ago. The liquid is still very cloudy but I'm wondering if its even possible to over-ferment your beer?
If I let it sit for another 2 weeks (or however long, length of time is unimportant to the actual question) prior to bottling will I gain/loss anything?
