Bonsai is a living art form and with any art form, the end result should be considered before the first effort is made. In order to develop an eye for what is right for the end result you desire, you will need to study the trees you would like to duplicate, in miniature, and try to find a plant that will meet your need.
True bonsai is any bonsai that indeed has charm, and has captured a picture of nature in miniature. Mother nature gives us trees, wind, lightning, drought and all her other forces. This causes trees to grow differently in various locations and makes it possible for us to have most any kind of tree or growth habit we would like to copy, meaning, we do not have to follow the rules and lines of oriental culture to have a true bonsai.
The art of growing dwarfed trees in containers dates back to the twelfth century in China. The Japanese admired and liked the idea and started practicing the art years later. Some say they actually perfected the art. I do not know who perfected the art but I am happy they brought it to us to enjoy. I do know that every tree that I have seen that was really a Japanese bonsai was perfectly beautiful. The rest of the world have been actively engaged in growing bonsai for many years. As usual, we have tried to find short-cuts for achieving perfection in the art. The original bonsai trees were dug from the woodlands by the Chinese or Japanese and trained by pruning and wiring to complete the picture of a mature tree. In doing this, several styles were developed. The style they used was the style that most suited the plant they had found, but they were very definite about following these styles. The plants that were developed from years of training were passed along to their children when they were no longer able to look after them. As a result, they have trees where perfection in copying nature has been achieved that are hundreds of years old.
As a short-cut to this art, most of us go to a nursery, select a plant and go home to start training. When we have had it for a year, we expect a perfect bonsai specimen that is loaded with charm. There is no way, my friends, that we can have the same sort of Japanese perfection in a year. We can have a great looking bonsai, but don't compare it to one of the beautiful Japanese specimens and expect to come out smelling like a rose.

I don't really want to go into it, because this isn't a pity party and I'm sure most of you could easily one-up me with your problems. Either way, I'm living out a very strange transition period in my life. Homesickness, doubt, love lost, new challenges. I think it's a definitive stage, and one with long term repercussions. We'll leave it at that. In essence, Drake's Take Care has become the soundtrack.
And what a glorious soundtrack it is. Drake came through with a dense, sprawling epic, and though it feels like heresy towards the old guard, it was my favorite project of 2011. I want to say Watch The Throne, out of respect and tradition and because it feels right and all that other bullshit that muddles our minds sometimes, but Take Care was easily the album I listened to the most last year. I could understand it. I could relate to it. Best of all, I could make an emotional connection to it, and that is something that creates a whole new depth to the sonic experience. In many ways, it was the album I needed.
Outside of my appreciation for the record, it has been a great album for Drake. Critically lauded. Adored by fans. Commercial success. Another peak in the Drake story. Congrats to him. And because this isn't Pitchfork, and because it gives me another excuse to listen to every song on the album, we're doing this bitch track by track. Not a review, it's not a review. I'm too biased at this point to review the record, too emotionally attached. Let's consider it rather a mulling over of the songs. A bit of healthy discussion. You'll get your money's worth, I promise.
Probably wasn't fucked by Drake. |
Headlines: First time I heard this? I grunted a little and said out loud "not a hit". That's why I'm not an A&R I suppose, because this shit became ubiquitous. I over-listened to it way back when it came out, so it rarely gets spins these days. But I can remember my infatuation with it quite well. The chorus is too catchy to be denied, Drake goes machine gun (not machine gun like Rittz or Gibbs, but still), and the beat sounds like if Boi-1da mixed with Lex Luger, as opposed to Boi-1da mixed with 40.
Crew Love (feat The Weeknd): As influential as Drake has been on The Weeknd, it clearly goes both ways. A short while after Thank Me Later, Drake commented that he was focusing on writing tight 16s, broken up by his signature choruses, or something of that nature. While this was probably an example of the typical artist rhetoric that should be completely disregarded, like when just before MBDTF dropped, and Yeezy said all his raps were positive raps, it's interesting to consider just how different his song structure is then that. I think the emergence of The Weeknd affected Drake artistically, forcing him back into that R&B mind-state. I don't know The Weeknd's music all that well, but he sounds positively heavenly here. Drake drops off just a single verse, but it's magnificent. Plus, he popularized the term "she's loving the crew" for that type of thirsty-ass girl.
Take Care: This may have the least plays on my iPod of any of the songs on the album. It's a commercial record that doesn't really pander to commercial stereotypes. Drake uses Gil-Scott Heron, just like some other notable guy last year. Still, great beat, and great chemistry between these two. I wonder why?
Marvin's Room/Buried Alive Interlude: I played this to death this summer. Endlessly. Like rolling around playing this shit as loud as it goes in the whip. It's probably a universal consensus that this song is great. It's become an anthem for scorned guys. Unfortunately, I probably played it so much this summer that by the time I got the album, it had lost it's luster, and now I rarely think about it in connection with the album. Which is a shame, because it's fantastic. Speaking on the interlude, I wish it hadn't happened. The verse is good, definitely, and that's from someone who isn't really a Kendrick fan. It just feels out of place, and Marvin's Room is perfect on its own. However, as an artistic flourish, a piece of the story told by an outsider, I'm sure Drake feels it fits perfectly.
Underground Kings: I hated this upon first listen, but it's probably been my favorite song off the album for the longest period of time. It's a go-to pump-up song. I've written about how much I love it on here before, so I won't go into too much detail. Drake tells a great, and important piece of his story, provides quotables you can Tweet all day, and still has me saying "rich off a mixtape, got rich off a mixtape". Plus, he shows he also fetishizes the South. Some of his best work to date.
We'll Be Fine: Drake's trying to let go of the past on track 9. Aren't we all? Great verses, and an even better hook. I love this one (that's a common theme, you have may noticed). Get Birdman the fuck out of here though, I don't like having to stop or next a song.
Make Me Proud (feat. Nicki Minaj): Jeeeezus YM has got a chokehold on this shit. Nicki & Drake is a license to print money. I don't like some of Nicki's verse, but I don't like Nicki all that much anyways.
Lord Knows (feat. Rick Ross): Can't go wrong with a Rawse feature these days. And he's been batting everything out of the park that opens with a "Just Blaze" drop. The production on this is bananas, and whoever said Hov and Jay E should've been on this had a point once, before the world realized how regal and unstoppable Drizzy and Rawse sound here.
Cameras/Good Ones Go Interlude: Another track that was a favorite for a period. I couldn't play it enough. This is cold-ass, trill R&B. Turn it up as loud as it goes.
Doing It Wrong: How many "when a good thing goes bad, it's not the end of the world, it's just the end of a world you had one girl" Facebook statuses have you seen? Drake speaks the truth, does his R&B thing, and then has Steve Fucking Wonder put his two cents in. Just because you can put anyone you want on your record, doesn't always mean you have to. But everybody wants to make the next Thriller or MBDTF, with little artistic cameos and shit. Admittedly, it does sound awesome.
The Real Her (feat. Lil Wayne & Andre 3000): A fantastic record, definitely. It's an interesting concept, and it's very well done here. Miss me with that Wayne verse, and though I wasn't sonically impressed with 3 Stacks verse for quite a while, it's grown on me a ton. Definitely a masterful verse by the elusive half of Outkast.
Look What You've Done: I don't know what it is about letting your guard down and talking about close relations that makes rappers rap, at least in a technical-sense, badly. He goes the Kanye-Big Brother route here, with a clunky flow that's disengaged from the beat, and rhymes words with themselves, like "so bad" and "so bad". Despite those qualms, it's still a fascinating look at the relationships he has with his uncle and his mother. The title is a bit of a fake-out too, I think. "Look What You've Done" makes you think he's going to come with the fury, not speak tenderly to his loved ones. Still, it's not a complete, black-and-white ode. It's a more honest version, with plenty of gray. Another win on the chorus, too.
HYFR (feat. Lil Wayne): A more straight-forward, rappity-rap type song, and an excellent beat from T-Minus, whose name pops up on a couple of my favorites. Drake goes hard here (the texting-exchange part gets me every time), but to me, he's more of the set-up piece, the introduction that establishes the scene for Dwayne Carter. Weezy still sounds more Tha Carter IV than Hustle Hard Remix here, but for some reason, it works excellently. Plus, he comes with the mind-bending, M. Night Shyamalan twist, the hugely important reveal that is switching the word "dressing room" to "bedroom". It changes the entire song, and is pretty awesome when it happens.
Practice: Records like this make me want to get into R&B. I'll probably just watch Breaking Bad instead, but still. This is dope. The ticking of the record sounds insane. The first time I put Take Care on my iPod, this one was so fucked up as to be unlistenable. I worked all that out, and I'm happy I did. Fucking great, and shiiiit when are people going to realize how great a producer 40 is? I'm not sure I have yet, but looking the Take Care credits over and over just might do it.
Trillest Man Alive |
The Motto: Yeah yeah yeah, it's a bonus track, and if you're including it, why aren't you including "Hate Sleeping Alone"? Well "The Motto" got a video, became a hit, and is now an indelible part of the Take Care narrative. If this is what Bay Area music sounds like, I've gotta start checking out "The Martorialist" more. Drake and Wayne sound excited and excellent, and it's over too soon. YOLO became the most-used phrase of all-time, and I know a lot of people that want leopard-print North Face jackets now. Insanity.

text: Subject: 19 Child Trafficking Gateway 140 - care/support and (re)integration Date: Sat, 16 Jan 2010 10:26:08 +0100 From: childtrafficking.com at tdh.ch Dear friends and colleagues We have again updated the digital library *_http://www.childtrafficking.com_* - supported by many activists around the globe. All forms of trafficking are addressed, including trafficking for labor purposes. The website focuses on children, and includes the latest information on strategies for trafficking prevention, as well as for the rehabilitation and reintegration of victims of trafficking. The digital library *_http://www.childtrafficking.com_* focuses on the outcomes of trafficking, such as the use of forced labor or slavery like practices, no matter how people arrive in these conditions. The update includes eight new documents dealing with *_care/support and (re)integration._* International Organization for Migration (IOM). (2009). *Caring for Trafficked Persons: Guidance for Health Providers. *232 p.* *For many trafficked persons, the physical and psychological aftermath of a trafficking experience can be severe and enduring. Health providers may come into contact with victims of trafficking at different stages of the trafficking process and at different stages of their recovery. For health practitioners, diagnosing and treating trafficked persons can be exceptionally challenging. The informed and attentive health care provider can play an important role in assisting and treating individuals who may have suffered unspeakable and repeated abuse. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ London Safeguarding Children Board (2009). *London safeguarding trafficked children toolkit*. 100 p. This toolkit for safeguarding trafficked children provides guidance to professionals and volunteers from all agencies in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children who are harmed through being trafficked and exploited. This guidance includes a joint assessment tool and referral form to assist professionals in both assessing the needs of the child and the continuing risks that they may face, and referring their case to the competent authority. _http://tdh-childprotection.org/index.php?option=com_doclib&task=showdoc&docid=809_ <http://tdh-childprotection.org/index.php?option=com_doclib&task=showdoc&docid=809> National Institute For Health And Clinical Excellence. (2009).* When to suspect child maltreatment. *156 p. This guidance provides a summary of the clinical features associated with maltreatment (alerting features) that may be observed when a child presents to healthcare professionals. Its purpose is to raise awareness and help healthcare professionals who are not specialists in child protection to identify children who may be being maltreated. It does not give healthcare professionals recommendations on how to diagnose, confirm or disprove child maltreatment. Children may present with both physical and psychological symptoms and signs that constitute alerting features of one or more types of maltreatment, and maltreatment may be observed in parent– or carer–child interactions. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ O'Leary, Patrick and Jason Squire. (2009). *Case Management Systems and Accountability: Social Work in Child Protection Projects l 2009. *20 p. This joint publication of University of Australia, University of Bath and Terre des hommes Foundation focuses on implementing a case management system during the initial start up phases of an emergency child protection project. The concepts are not exclusive to emergency projects and hold strong relevance to the inclusion of the system into existing development projects. The document provides useful guidelines and tools for improving social work. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ O'Leary, Patrick and Jason Squire. (2009). *Case Management: Capitalization of Projects – Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Sudan and Nepal 2009. *46 p. This publication is the outcome of a collaborative partnership between three organizations namely Terre des hommes Foundation, the University of Bath and the University of South Australia. The research data collected between 2006-2008 in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Sudan and Nepal has collected the field experiences on child protection issues and analyzes the key learnings in each of those countries. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ Asquith, Stewart and Elspeth Turner. (2008*). Recovery and Reintegration of Children from the Effects of Sexual Exploitation and Related Trafficking. *55 p. This report commissioned by Oak Foundation is concerned with the whole range of initiatives, projects and programmes which are available to support children through the recovery and reintegration process. These include psychosocial, family, community, shelter-based and residential-based initiatives, and the provision of child-protection service in general. The range of such initiatives in itself reflects the complexity of the search for effective measures. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ Terre des hommes Foundation (Tdh). (2009). *Supporting Child (Re) Integration.* 18 p. This policy paper describes "re(integration)" according to Tdh, presents the positioning of the organisation, elaborates on the various services needed and finally gives some indication on how they can be implemented in a qualitative manner. The document does not argue that all these services should be covered by Tdh projects. It provides a list of services needed to help the team in choosing the intervention which best corresponds to their capacities and skills. The listing illustrates the need to work with national duty bearers as well as within a comprehensive referral system. As such the document can be useful in the planning phase either when starting or adjusting a project. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ Terre des hommes Foundation (Tdh). (2009). *Soutenir la (Re)integration des enfants * 18 p. Ce document présente la position de Tdh sur les actions à mettre en œuvre pour favoriser la réintégration d'un enfant. Il traite des différents domaines d'interventions et des services correspondants, tout en fournissant des informations sur la manière de les mettre en œuvre.Le document ne prétend pas que les projets de Tdh doivent couvrir l'intégralité de ces services. Il cherche simplement à fournir une liste aussi détaillée que possible des services utiles, afin d'aider les équipes à choisir l'intervention qui corresponde le mieux à leurs capacités et aptitudes. Il met également en exergue le besoin de travailler avec les responsables nationaux et d'utiliser un système d'orientation vers des services déjà existants. Ce document peut être utile dans la phase de planification d'un projet, tant pour son lancement que pour son ajustement. _http://www.childtrafficking.com_ */All comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome.

Reblogged from Animal Rights & AntiOppression:
When I bought my condo, one of the selling points for me was the patio. "I can garden," I thought with glee.
It's been 4 years, and the garden has been both a success and a failure - this is the nature of learning, and I am happy to try things just to see if they'll work. My space, like all growing spaces, has its challenges.
A beautiful little manifesto about gardening. Soil and vegetables can change the world. They always have.

I have this sapphire hd 6950 2gb for about 18 months and it just started doing this. Went into a game and got a black screen. System would not respond to Ctrl-Alt-Del, Atl-Tab, reset button or anything. Had to force power down. Had a mild overclock on, but now it's reset and still doing it. Tried a different game, 3dmark11, same thing. After a few minutes black screen. Going to reinstall catalyst, but I'm pretty sure something else is going on. GPU, PSU, memory, motherboard...don't know which. Any ideas would be appreciated. ADD: Forgot that I'm running a 4.8GHz overclock, so testing at default and so far looking good. Perhaps it wasn't as stable as I thought at that speed, but still not sure yet.
I'd do testing with Furmark, if it get's the same, try different drivers, if still the same, I'd say there's something wrong with your system or the card.
Ok, been testing with furmak and now back at 4.6GHz on the CPU and running the card at stock. All is well. I also was trying different monitors and didn't have any trouble on the others. But I think the real trick was reseating the card. Now going to oc the gpu again and see what happens.
It is water cooled, and doesn't go over 60c usually. Didn't anything out of the ordinary with the temps. But since reseating the card I have not had the same issue of the screen going black and the system hanging. Even put back my modest oc on the GPU. Here's hoping that's all it was.

Do you down a glass or two of wine each night? Or cocktails after work frequently? And do you look forward to doing so as a way to relax? If you're like many women, you are probably raising your hand–or your glass. Drinking is a common way to cope with the over-scheduled, over-worked and over-stressed lives that we lead these days. But when do the lines get blurred between a "normal", casual drinker and someone with a drinking problem? You may not think you or someone you know has a dependency, but according to Dr. Joseph Nowinski, clinical psychologist and co-author of Almost Alcoholic, Is My (or My Loved One's) Drinking A Problem? your drinking could put you in this new "almost alcoholic" category.

Check out the tomatoes on any sub. You'll see for yourself. Plenty of fixins at this local favorite year round eatery.
The pizza and steak subs are delicious. Very good crust with a braided edge. We have been going to eat there for years. It does get crowded, especially at lunch time, so we usually call ahead and take it to go back to the beach with us. It's a nice little landmark and tradition in Fenwick Island!
Had a nice large sausage pizza that was very good. The place was packed with a 40 minute wait. That says it all!
The Italian subs were great and everyone enjoyed that but the pizza crust a little tough, lol. Close to our hotel and other stores
Been going since 1982 and haven't stopped. They are family to so many people local and tourists. It's a great sub and pizza place. My favorite is the cheesteak! Yummy
Grotto's and Pizza Tugos have nothing on Ocean Side. Thin crust, cheese and sauce almost to the edge. Their dining area includes a small bar where you can enjoy a few beers with your pizza. I haven't had sandwiches from here because I love the pizza too much.
Pizza is exceptional. Ingredients are fresh for sandwiches. Consistent quality. No atmosphere - just a "quick bite" place or takeout.
My family and I have been staying in Fenwick Island (they seem to call it Selbyville here) for many, many years. Oceanside has been around for over 30 years and as always is our favorite place to grab a quick bite. The pizza is good. Subs are excellent. I love the small town pizza shop feel of the place. The...

This epicurian delight is a food lovers dream - - - need I say more? :-)
There is no better pizza than what is made fresh at Oceanside. They use quality ingredients. They make a traditional pizza that never lets you down. Their crust is sooo good! Nice people and great foods.

Black Spot Program
The Black Spot Program is part of the commitment to reduce crashes on Australian roads.
Road crashes are a major cost to Australians every year. Black Spot projects target those road locations where crashes are occurring. By funding measures such as traffic signals and roundabouts at dangerous locations, the program reduces the risk of crashes. Programs of this sort are very effective, saving the community many times the cost of the relatively minor road improvements that are implemented.
The Black Spot Program makes an important contribution in reducing the national road toll under the National Road Safety Strategy and Action Plan.
The Government will provide $59.5 million per annum to 2013-14 for road safety projects under the Black Spot Program.
In the 2012-13 Budget, the Government announced that it will provide $300 million ($60 million per annum) to extend the Black Spot Program for a further five years from 2014-15 to 2018-19.

Judith Butler, a renowned feminist thinker and professor in the rhetoric department at the University of California at Berkeley, told the Georgia Straight by phone that this is evident in recent police responses to anti-NATO protests in Chicago and student demonstrations in Montreal. She cited it as the fallout of the intensification of neoliberal capitalism.
"At a certain point, we have to ask whether security has become an alibi for state violence of various kinds," she said shortly after arriving in Vancouver to give a free public lecture.
Butler, who is the author of several books, pointed out that people are taking to the streets because they're excluded from established areas of influence, including the electoral system, corporate power, and the media. She noted that these protesters often don't come from communities based on a common identity, language, or even nationality, and they don't agree with each other on many issues.
"Their bodies are their last resource and their most important resource—and it is the power they have," she said. "So bodies in the street can stop traffic or bring attention that [there are] very basic needs to be satisfied, including shelter, food, employment, and freedom of mobility and freedom of expression."

4/365: Songblog Part 3
Radiohead - How To Disappear Completely
What's wrong with Thom Yorke? Why does he keep on singing these songs that make you awfully sad it becomes comforting when you listen to them over and over. A sad song is a sad song but when Thom Yorke sings it, it becomes even more sad. And you feel good because there is someone out there sadder than you.
Radiohead songs are like Atlantic cold water that bathes you with chills and leaves you cleansed after. I listened to Kid A more than any album. The Beatles is probably my favorite band but Radiohead is my most played band. It is kind of strange but when I think of it, I don't even have a specific story to tell about them, not even this song. Maybe, it only gives me that fleeting experience of how blissfully painful the momentary in-existence is. "I'm not here, this isn't happening" till you fade away with the song.
Wait. An idea just dawned in me, in Zen, one is thought to recognize every thing and let them go. Maybe, that's what this song is all about, that eventually you have/must disappear completely.

(64.) 1. Prospère GAGNON was born on 16 Sep 1790 in St. Roche, and was baptized the following day at Ste-Anne de la Pocatière, Québec. His godparents were François Pelletier and Marie François Gauvin.
Prospère GAGNON was married to Marie Anne OUELLETTE on 6 Sep 1813 in St.Louis church, Kamouraska, Québec.(2) Present as witnesses were Michel Gagnon (Prospère's father), Dignale Roi, Ignace Lavoie, fils (Jr.), Etienne Tardif, and Antoine Ouellette (Marie Anne's father), Alexandre Tardif, Jean Baptiste Cayouette, François Ouellet, "and several other relatives and friends of the bride and groom."
(65.) Marie Anne OUELLETTE was born on 15 May 1790 in La Pocatière, Kamouraska County, Québec. Prospère GAGNON and Marie Anne OUELLETTE had the following children:
i. Michel GAGNON.
32. ii. Antoine GAGNON.
iii. Angélique GAGNON.
iv.Marceline GAGNON.
v. Thomas GAGNON.
In the record of the baptism of his sons Michel and Antoine, in December 1814 and June 1818, Prospère was described as a "forgeron," or blacksmith. Prospère and his family appeared in the 1825 Census of Lower Canada, as Prospère Gagnon, living in Trois Pistoles in a household with 3 children under the age of 6, and two between the age of 6 and 14; one married male 25-40; and one married female 14-45.
Sometime during the spring or early summer of 1831 the family moved from Trois-Pistoles, Québec, to the upper St.John River Valley in what is today Aroostook County, Maine.
In November 1833 the Provincial government of New Brunswick undertook a census of the Madawaska Settlement, which was going through a very difficult time: crops had failed and a large part of the population were very bad off. New Brunswick decided to find out what kinds of assistance were needed and how much, so they surveyed the population, asking not only the number of people in each household but also how much livestock they had, how much and which crops had been sown and harvested in that year and in previous years.
Prospère and his family appeared in the 1833 New Brunswick census of Madawaska as Prosper Gagione. He was living in the Settlement of Madawaska, on the right (south) bank of the St.John River, with his wife, three sons and two daughters, as a tenant. He possessed no livestock, had sown and grown no crops that year or in previous years. He is described as a laborer, as "poor" and "requiring assistance," and "in need of immediate relief." They seem to have just moved to the area -- picking a bad time to do so -- since they had not sown crops in earlier years.
Seven years later we find Prospère in the same place. He shows up in the 1840 US Census, in the Madawaska Settlements south of the St.John River, Aroostook County, Maine, as Prosper Gonyon, living in a household with one male between the ages of 40 and 49, one male 20-29, one male 15-19, one female 60-70, one female 30-40, one female 20-30, for a total of six people.(153) By this time his son Michel had married and left the household. This census asked only about who was in the household and their ages, so we know nothing about their circumstances.
Prospère died on 11 Aug 1847 in Frenchville, Maine, and was buried on 12 Aug 1847 in Ste-Luce Cemetery, Frenchville, Maine. (1) Here an image of the burial record in the Ste-Luce parish register (1847, p.93a):
Le douze Août mil huit cent quarante sept nous inhumé dans le cemetière du lieu le corps de Prospère Gagnon décédé hier agé de cinquante cinq ans, époux de Marie Anne Ouellet de cette paroisse. Presents Hilarion Daigle et Joseph Albert qui n'ont su signer. H. Dionne, ptreEnglish translation:
August 12th 1847 we buried in the cemetery of this place the body of Prospère Gagnon, deceased yesterday at the age of 55 years, husband of Marie Anne Ouellet of this parish. Present were Hilarion Daigle and Joseph Albert, who did not know how to sign. H Dionne, priest
Marie Anne Ouellette died on 2 Jun 1855, and was buried two days later at St-Patrice church in Rivière-du-Loup, Québec [St Patrice church register, 1855, p.21]. She apparently had moved their sometime after the marriage of her son Thomas in 1848 (in his marriage record, she is described as "of this parish", while in her burial record at St-Patrice, she is likewise described as "of this parish").

Does anyone have any good ways for making prescription glasses water repellant?
I looked through some older discussions and the only two methods that I could find were Rain-X, or eye laser surgery! I'm not going for the surgery just yet and I need to wear the glasses during the day for work.
Had this problem for a long while. Found a solution that works for me. I just stop & squirt all lens surfaces with water from my drink bottle now & then, shake off surplus (don't wipe), & problem fixed!
To stop fogging of skindiving mask, rinse inside with detergent or, more commonly saliva. Then rinse in (sea) water.
When you get to my age youre eye brows start getting very bushy...perfect for soaking up the water before it gets to the glasses. John Howard would never have problems with his glasses fogging up.
On glass glasses, you could try Dri-Wash waterless car wash spray. makes the water bead and run off. Don't know whether it would adversely interact with plastic lenses, though.
I wear glasses as well.
I don't know any answers the the question.
However I would be cautious about putting chemicals on the glasses and then near your eyes.
Does your local optometrist have any suggestions?
Anybody considering contact lenses should do some research on amoebic keratitis.
That said I have an uncle who has been wearing contact lenses for 40+ years because his vision cant be corrected with glasses.
When I was a young boy working on the mines in Broken Hill many decades ago they supplied Egg Creme Baby Shampoo for use on safety glasses underground. You wiped it on the lenses and this stopped condensation and fogging up.
Ride faster ;-)
Above about 40kph the wind clears away most of the rain drops for you. So you may start a descent totally blind, but about half way down you can see what you've got yourself into.
the condensation on the glasses is (probably) due to body heat being trapped behind them. My Oakley glasses have vents to allow cooler air in and the warm air out. How do you feel about drilling holes in your prescription lenses? ;)
you could try this:
Condensation - no answer.
Sweat - no answer (yes, I have this problem all rear round)
Drizzle - snarl and live with it.
Rain, as in the steady stuff, I've had good results simply by leaving the visor on my helmet. I discovered that by tilting my head down and looking through the slots in the visor, less rain gets on my glasses and I get much better vision than letting all that damned wet stuff get all over my glasses. YMMV and having now suggested it, it probably won't work for me next time.
Taking my glasses off isn't an option as I can only see about two feet clearly without them and it just keeps getting worse from there. Sure, I can't see with glasses covered in road spray either, but it's better and the occasional swipe with a gloved finger is satisfying (if not overly efficient).
By far the most efficient option is to say 'fuggit' and take the MG (even with the lousy demister and worse wipers)
the down side of the synthetic materials is that they are useless for wiping dry your lenses, even if you find that dry patch of jersey at your lower back!
glasses on - no viz. glasses off ditto.
@ snappy don, have you noticed that the faster you go in the rain the more wet you get? so whilst the movement wind blows off the old rain drops, you are actually collecting new ones even faster. Perhaps I could modify a CO2 cannister tap to blow them dry...
I use a spray called Plexus on motorcycle visors (and bike bodywork), It was developed for aircraft windscreens and masks fine scratches. It is silicon based I believe. Water beads off the visor very nicely, you could clear the outside of rain with a twist of the head. As for fog inside I reckon ventilation is the key for me.
